Menopause is the milestone in every woman's life that marks the end of her reproductive years. It is the point in time when a woman has had no menstrual periods for 1 year, which happens when the ovaries have stopped producing enough estrogen and progesterone to keep the menstrual cycle going.
Menopause marks the end of the perimenopausal phase and the beginning of the postmenopausal phase. While the average age of menopause is around 50, every woman's body has its own unique timeline. Some women stop having periods (menstruating) in their mid-40s, while others continue until their mid-50s.
After menopause, a woman's estrogen stabilizes at a low level. Although low estrogen helps reduce the risk of some types of cancer, it does lead to an increasing loss in bone density, which sometimes causes osteoporosis.

No doubt you have seen recipes containing either coriander or cilantro. Usually it's not the same recipe so that might lead you to believe they are complete separate.
It's actually the same thing.
But it's more complicated than that.
Confused yet?
Coriander is the name of the plant/herb. Its seeds (or fruit if you prefer) are often used as a dried spice. They are ground and used often in Indian and Mediterranean cuisine, paired with cumin for use in many different types of curries and in garam masala.
It has a flavor of citrus, nuts and sage.
Cilantro refers the name of the leaves of the coriander plant. It looks a bit like Italian flat-leaf parsley, but has a more pungent flavor. It's most often used in Latin American, Asian and Caribbean cuisine.
I've found that you either love or hate cilantro, it's not something that people generally don't care about one way or the other.
Both coriander and cilantro offer its own usage and flavor, but it is a very useful ingredient no matter which part of the plant you use.

This striking black, ivory and mauve rayon dress demonstrates the success of Ossie Clark's collaboration with his wife, the textile designer Celia Birtwell. An expert cutter, Ossie Clark designed his patterns to complement the printed textiles he used in his clothes. In this mini-dress, flat black crêpe provides the perfect backdrop for Birtwell's lively, stylised floral print. In the dress illustrated below also from about 1970, two contrasting but related printed wools provide a striking outfit, also designed by Birtwell.
Born in Warrington, Ossie Clark (1942-96) studied fashion at London's Royal College of Art from 1962 to 1964, joining the design team at the Quorum boutique in London's Chelsea when he left. He rapidly achieved national recognition after his work appeared in British Vogue in 1965. His use of transparent chiffons and clingy crêpes produced unique, ultra-feminine designs for the "Swinging London" of the late 1960s and early 1970s. Ossie Clark can now be recognized as one of the most important British designers of the later 20th century, a favourite of personalities like Marianne Faithfull, David Hockney, and Mick Jagger of The Rolling Stones, as well as of countless less celebrated clients.

Union attempt to storm Fort Sumter observed
CHARLESTON — Monday marks the 150th anniversary of the only Union attempt to storm the South Carolina fort where the Civil War began – an attack doomed to failure by rivalries between commanders, poor planning and the fact the Confederates knew exactly what was coming.
The Sept. 9, 1863, attack on Fort Sumter was, like the Confederate bombardment of the fort in Charleston Harbor that opened the war more than two years earlier, a complete Southern victory.
This time, with the Confederates holding the fort, about 500 Union sailors and Marines in small boats approached Sumter in an unusual nighttime operation. But after about 20 minutes, the shooting was over.
There were about 125 Union casualties – five killed, 16 wounded and the rest captured – while the Confederates lost not a man.
"The federals lose five boats. They lose five stands of colors, and they have 11 officers captured. It's bad," said Rick Hatcher, the historian at the Fort Sumter National Monument who will be narrating the details of the battle during a harbor boat tour on Monday's anniversary.
The fight made national news at the time. Now, 150 years later, that fight like many others during the war has been lost amid bigger milestones such as the Battle of Gettysburg and the fall of Vicksburg earlier in the summer of 1863.
The Union wanted Charleston for two reasons, Hatcher said in a recent interview.
"This is where rebellion and treason began," Hatcher said. "Charleston was also the most successful blockade running port in the Confederacy."
The attack developed after the Confederates evacuated Battery Wagner on Morris Island three days earlier. Wagner was the battery that the black 54th Massachusetts soldiers unsuccessfully stormed earlier that summer – their exploits chronicled in the movie "Glory."
What the 54th could not capture, the Union forced the Confederates to abandon when their siege lines moved closer to the oceanfront battery. Capturing Sumter seemed the next step in taking Charleston.
Rear Admiral John Dahlgren, commanding Union naval forces, wrote in his log he was informed by Army Gen. Quincy Adams Gillmore that Wagner had been evacuated.
"The island is ours," he wrote. "I sent a flag demanding surrender of Sumter. Answer: 'Come and take it,'" he writes in the log included in the "Official Records of the War of the Rebellion."
Dahlgren and Gillmore both wanted the glory of taking Charleston for themselves and both planned an attack for the same night without consulting the other, Hatcher said.
"Your dispatch by signal that you intended to assault Sumter tonight reached me about an hour after I had sent a letter by one of my staff, informing you I intended to do the same," Gillmore telegraphed Dahlgren. "In an operation of this kind there should be but one commander to insure success and prevent mistakes."
But there was no cooperation. When the Navy began its attack before could Gillmore could began his, he recalled his 500 troops. Dahlgren's remaining 500 sailors and Marines were hampered by poor planning.
"Dahlgren hasn't done any reconnaissance. He hadn't sent out any boats at night to see what the situation is and he provides no scaling ladders," Hatcher said. The attackers were in small boats pulled toward the fort by a tug boat and then set adrift. Three Union warships that were supposed to provide supporting fire never got into the battle.
"Some of the sailors and Marines can't make their way through all the debris by the fort that has been knocked down by the earlier bombardment," Hatcher said. "Some make it to the second level but then hit a straight wall and have no ladders."
"After casting off from the tug, I pulled up to the northeast face of the fort," Lt. F.J. Higginson of the USS Housatonic wrote in his report. "I succeeded in reaching the fort and immediately attempted to land. I found myself upon a narrow ledge of rocks in which no foothold could be obtained."
The Confederates, who had recovered a Union code book from a sunken ironclad when Union naval forces attempted to run past Sumter earlier that year, could read federal signals and knew what was planned.
After the fight, Union forces would never attempt to assault Sumter again. Hatcher said that in the following months, the Charleston blockade was tightened and East Coast blockade running shifted to Wilmington, N.C.
The battle for Charleston "pretty much devolved into a stalemate" with troops from both sides being shifted into other theaters of the war.
With the blockade solidified, there was no real imperative for the Union to take Charleston "other than the moral factor of putting a U.S. flag again over the city," Hatcher said
The Union would never take Charleston. It was abandoned in early 1865 when U.S. Gen. William T. Sherman marched through South Carolina to the west, cutting the city's lines of communication.

Growing up on a dairy farm on the south shore of Lake Superior, about the only thing I knew about the back end of a cow was not to be around when the tail lifted and to jump if they kicked. Life would have been much better if I had this handy advice from the folks at PDPW.
READING A COW'S LANGUAGE can improve your interaction with her and help you determine if she's feeling OK or not feeling well. Information provided by the Babcock Center says the secret is the position of her tail. "You can get an idea of how a cow feels by looking at her tail. When the tail is hanging down, she is relaxed. When the tail is tucked between her legs, she is either in pain, scared or cold. If the tail is raised, she is exploring or alert to possible threats. When galloping, her tail is straight out.
"It is also important to observe the whole posture of the animal. A healthy animal will stretch, arching her back when she stands up and then return to her normal straight posture. If a cow is standing longer than normal with her back arched and her head low, that is a sign of discomfort."

UConn is a surprising 7-2 heading into an exam break after beating Harvard, 57-49, Friday at Gampel Pavilion.
Nothing comes easy for these Huskies but they keep finding ways to win.
Sophomore DeAndre Daniels played the starring role, scoring a career-high 23 points. Sophomore Ryan Boatright finished with 16 points.
The Huskies were out-rebounded (27-20) for the eighth time in nine games. Their bench provided only eight points – all in the final 10 minutes. And they allowed Harvard to shoot 48.8 percent.
But they won, and that's all that really matters.
"Hopefully, we just continue to play like this and find a way to win," coach Kevin Ollie said.
Some news, notes and quotes from post-game:
-- Could Daniels become the third scoring option that UConn needs?
Time will tell.
Daniels had his best game despite playing with a sore lower back. He's been suffering from back spasms since the North Carolina State game on Tuesday.
Defenses are focusing on containing the backcourt of Shabazz Napier and Boatright. Daniels went 9-for-12 from the field and added four rebounds. He's the first non-guard to lead the Huskies in scoring.
"I can help them and take the load of them because everyone is going to be scouting us and trying to get us out of our game," Daniels said. "I just need to step up and help and get the load off of their back."
"He decided to play today," Ollie said. "And that's what DeAndre can do."
-- Ollie changed the starting lineup for the first time all season. Junior Enosch Wolf replaced junior Tyler Olander at center.
Wolf had four points and zero rebounds in 20 minutes. Olander had four points and two rebounds in 20 minutes.
"He had a couple of dunks, but I need more rebounds," Ollie said of Wolf.
Ollie added that the competition for starting center position remains open.
-- UConn forced a season-high tying 18 turnovers, leading to 22 points. The Huskies ties a season-low for points allowed.
"Our defense was great," Ollie said.
-- Napier had just six points but made a major impact on the game. He had season highs in assists (9), rebounds (7) and steals (4) in 38 minutes.
"I love passing the ball and getting rebounds and assists," Napier said. "I don't really care too much about scoring as long as my team wins."
He went scoreless in the first half and made his first basket with 7:40 left in the game. His 3-pointer came during a key 13-2 run that turned a tight 33-32 game into a 46-34 lead.
Ollie loved Napier's assist-to-turnover ratio (9 to 1).
"That's better than me," said Ollie, a former UConn and NBA point guard.
-- Ollie made a point to praise the season-high home crowd of 9,113 fans.
"Our sixth man – our crowd – was unbelievable. I definitely want to praise them."
-- Reserve guard R.J. Evans played just seven minutes. He fell hard on his bad right shoulder while hustling back to make a play on defense.
"I aggravated it a little bit," Evans said.
Evans will get an opportunity to heal up during the exam break.
-- The Huskies didn't receive a point from their bench until junior Niels Giffey scored off an alley-oop with 9:54 remaining in the game. He finished with four points in 21 minutes after scoring just two in the previous 49 minutes over two games.
-- Freshman guard Omar Calhoun has struggled lately. He went 0-for-6 from the field and had three turnovers. He has 15 turnovers in the last four games.
-- UConn is off until Monday, Dec. 17, when it hosts Maryland-Eastern Shore in Hartford.
-- Check out the attached video of Daniels who met with the media after the game.

"Dreams are perhaps the most highly personal expressions you have." - Patricia Garfield
Dear Lauri,
Last night I dreamed that my father had recorded a hit country song. I remember hearing it on the radio. I've never really heard my dad "sing" in real life. He was confused and a bit put off by all the attention he was getting. People asked him for autographs wherever we went, and he remarked "Guess I better start carrying a f*ckin' Sharpie." - Turner 42, Fort Wayne, IN
Lauri: This is probably more about you than it is about your father. Remember, everything and everyone in a dream is symbolic of you or some part of your life. That being said, are you a father? And if so, your dad probably represents yourself as a dad. Did anything particularly good happen yesterday where you felt you were getting recognition for your paternal skills? Did your child do or say anything that was "music to your ears?" The Sharpie is an interesting element to the dream and most likely is the way you are telling yourself you need to write this down for permanency.
Turner Replies: I am a father of two and last night I asked my youngest if he wanted me to lay down with him and sing some songs for bedtime, and he said "Yes! Because I love you!" Sweetest kid ever.
Lauri: Aha! There is the connection to singing. Remember, the ending of the dream is where the most important part of the message is. So write that down! Matters not if it is a Sharpie, a No. 2 pencil or a green crayon. Just document that because that is precious!

The Zhihua monastery is one of the great Buddhist temple compounds in the Chinese capital of Beijing. Conceived on a grand scale, the compound was built in the early 1400s by the eunuch Wang Zhen. This ceiling comes from the second of five main halls on the monastery's central axis—the Hall of Great Wisdom.
To give visitors a sense of the original context, the Museum installed the ceiling with architectural elements reconstructed from measured drawings made at the original site. In the center is a writhing imperial dragon surrounded by clouds, bracketing, and eight canted panels, each bearing a smaller dragon among clouds. Lotuses, apsaras (Buddhist flying musicians), and other Buddhist religious symbols are carved in the surrounding panels. The Chinese name for this central part of the ceiling is tianjing, or "well of heaven." While most of the original red lacquer is well preserved, much of the rich overlay of gold leaf has been lost.
A series of model temples supported by cloud-decorated brackets encompass the central element; within these miniature structures are delicately carved sculptures of Buddhas and bodhisattvas. The remainder of the ceiling consists of square panels painted with stylized lotus flowers that show the influence of Tibetan Buddhism (Lamaism). Each bears a character from a North Indian script (called Lantsha by the Tibetans) that symbolically recreates the universe. The model temples and panels may have been added during repairs made in the Kangxi period (1662–1722).

Brooke's Q & A
Who's your favorite sports team, and why?
I do not watch a lot of sports, but within the past two years I have been following the Baltimore Ravens and their triumphant victory this year was inspiring!
What's your favorite movie quote?
"They've done studies, you know. Sixty percent of the time, it works every time." — Brian Fantana from Anchorman
What's your favorite video game, and could you kick our butts at it?
I really enjoy playing Wii "Just Dance" with my friends. Pretty much anything on Wii calls for a good time.
Piercings/Tattoos (How many? Where?)
I have a total of 5 piercings and no tattoos. Two on each ear and a belly ring.
What's the most embarrassing song on your iPod?
It would have to be any song on my extensive Mozart and Bach playlist. I always enjoy Classical music when I'm studying.
What's your best party trick?
I took three years of Spanish in high school and cannot say I remember a thing, but after a few cocktails I find myself able to understand and speak Spanish with others. Weird!
What's the most memorable pick-up line you've ever heard?
My favorite is an all time classic: "If I could re-arrange the alphabet I would put 'U' and 'I' together"… to which the best reply ever is "Why would you want to do that when 'N' and 'O' are already in perfect order?"
What's the worst job you've ever had?
I was a summer camp counselor one year and had the worst group of kids. It was a summer filled with a bunch of screaming 6-8 year old kids fighting one another. I'll never do that again!
What's the most dangerous thing you've ever done?
I swam with wild sharks and stingrays in Grand Cayman on vacation. It was a very thrilling and enjoyable experience!
It's 4AM after a crazy night out – what are we eating?
Most definitely a Veggie Pizza with Pineapple on top from Papa John's. And I think it goes without saying; the garlic butter sauce is a must!
What's the strangest thing in your fridge right now?
Peanut butter! I really like the taste of cold peanut butter on sandwiches and with apples.
What's the naughtiest thing you've ever done in public?
Last year, while in St. Maarten for a swimwear photo shoot, one of the beaches didn't exactly require one to wear any clothing. Needless to say… during my lunch break, my skinny dip in the ocean was quite refreshing!
What do you feel sexiest wearing?
I feel the sexiest after a great workout at the gym. There's something to be said for a hot and sweaty chick in a sports bra and spandex shorts. ;)
Tell us a joke.
Q: What do you call a grizzly bear with no teeth? A: A gummy bear.

This weekend is going to be dominated by The Hunger Games: Catching Fire. Early box office estimates are in the range of $140 million up to $160 million. The reviews have been great so far and from what's being said, it's better than the first. I enjoyed the first and am looking forward to the second installment.
Delivery Man also opens in wide release this weekend and the reviews, not so kind. It's a remake of the 2011 film Starbuck. Ken Scott directed and wrote both films, but critics are bigger fans of the original French-Canadian version.
Here are some of the movies opening in limited release this weekend:
I'm a huge fan of both Steve Coogan and Judi Dench and have been looking forward to this movie for quite awhile.

I'm just seeing this. Tif, I hope you're okay. Given your tubal and the excruciating pain you were in, I can't believe t hey aren't taking this more seriously. I'm praying you don't have an ectopic pregnancy.
Keeping you in my thoughts. I hope that you have a good outcome.
I wanted to add way back when, I tested with a cheap test and there was a very faint line. I ran out to get a digi test and it ended up negative. The next day I took a third test, non digi, it was still positive. In the end I was very pregnant. So just because the digi was negative, that doesn't mean anything.
Jeanne, mom to Dev0n (6) Isabe11e (5) and C0rbin (3.5) Vio1et (almost 2)
Wow, your insurance is a piece of work (but I suppose... aren't they all)
Digi's are definitely less sensitive, but either way, you need answers
Things are a little crazy, but I'm loving every minute of it My Blog
Well the digi I took at 8:30pm was positive so I guess the first was wrong since out of four tests it's the only one that has said not pregnant.
I was going to go in to UC but fell asleep waiting for it to open and slept until it was closed. The ER wait was seven hours last night so I decided to sleep those hours instead. This morning when I went to the bathroom I discovered pink blood so Im now all checked in at the ER (with only a 2 hour wait...yippee). I'm barely bleeding. In fact I just went to the bathroom again and there was nothing unless I pushed the TP up inside and then just a pinkish orange tinge. I had pretty good lower back pain yesterday evening but I also spent three hours barefoot on the hard kitchen floor doing food prep so that's a pretty normal back ache for me. Today no back ache and not really cramping just feeling...weird. Like lightheaded but in my lower abdomen. Does that even make sense? Just funky feeling. So, hopefully I'll know something soon. John stayed home so he could work from home asking as possible. He'll come down here if needed once we have a plan of some kind of action. Still no word on what my beta was but I doubt it can be very high if a digital test is still able to be influenced by how much water I drank!
I hope that you have answers very soon!

I am so glad you are at the ER. I pray they take good care of you.
Hope you can get some answers soon. This is so crazy!
Jeanne, mom to Dev0n (6) Isabe11e (5) and C0rbin (3.5) Vio1et (almost 2)
Glad you are in the ER, but, sorry for the long wait I hope you have answers soon and that you're home and healthy in no time.
Glad u went to the er! Hope u get some answers soon!
Thinking of you, Tif!
Yesterday's blood test was 26 which is barely positive. Dr came in and won't let me eat or drink until after the ultrasound which he doubts will show anything but could. He says they're not likely to see anything at all. And with the kind of ligation I had the chances of pregnancy being in the uterus are so small. He thinks the OB will discuss either constant monitoring until we can tell for sure or preemptively treating it as ectopic since that's what it most likely is and using methotrexate injections to force an abortion.
What do you think that you want to do? Take a wait and see approach? Praying for you.

My blog about MCAD
Honestly, I don't know. My gut reaction is to wait and see. But reality is that the chances are so slim and waiting and seeing brings risks to me, you know? I guess I'll wait and see what my OB suggests. A little of this comes down to religion. And he shares our religious beliefs. If he tells me that a forced abortion is the best choice for me and my health I am likely to go with it. But if he feels he can monitor me close enough for safety then I will probably do that. But only if he can promise me I won't have this run around that I've had already.
FX that you will see something, anything, on the ultrasound that can give you peace of mind in your decision. Thinking of you.
if you are bleeding internally, they would see that on ultrasound. if you do not have free flowing fluid I would wait it out.

TAMPA, FL (RNN) - Scott Moore is one of hundreds of everyday Americans gathered outside the gates of the Republican National Convention.
While many protest, he's here on a different mission entirely - to peddle coffee.
Moore says he was the victim of the downsizing after his Fortune 500 Company merged with another.
So, he drove four hours from Jacksonville, FL to stand on the street corner outside the convention, passing out fliers for his new company, Revolution Coffee.
He's promoting a cause as much as a business.
"I found out how hard it was to start a business, way too much regulation, way too much was required to hang up a sign to say 'I'm open,' to take care of customers and sell some goods. It's just wrong," he said. "It ought to be easier for people to make their own way."
In a fragile economy, he's just one of the estimated 12.8 million Americans who find themselves out of work and needing to make ends meet.
It's an issue that surveys show weighs heavily on the minds of voters, and an issue that the Republicans are highlighting during the convention.
A recent Gallup survey shows 60 percent of Americans feel the economy is getting worse, while 35 percent say it's getting better.
Moore says his company doesn't label a specific political party and he welcomes "anybody who wants to be part of the cause."
"I think this is an across the country concept, that people want to be free to make their own way," he said.
Moore said Washington can help the economy by creating a business-friendly environment.
His message? Do more by doing less.
"Government is not the solution," he said. "Government ought to create a free environment where people can create their own solutions. We want to be a part of that. We want to be a part of the conversation. How do we create a place where people can go make their way?" he said.

Overview: Nothing is better for your newborn than a Natural Touch™. SoftFlex™ Feeding Bottle is designed to make breastfeeding and bottle feeding work better together. It features the new Nûby™ Breast Size Nipple which closely mimics the natural shape, feel, and function of a mother's breast helping to ease the transition from breastfeeding to bottle feeding. Superior anti-colic valves in the base of the nipple help prevent colic, and soft nubs on the surface massage baby's gums. Additionally, this bottle is made from a high grade of Poly Propelene material which is 100% Bisphenol A FREE and is fully interchangeable with the SoftFlex™ Silicone system.
*Available in a variety of colours, prints and sizes.
Flexing Action: The soft feel and natural shape of the nipple gently flexes and elongates like mum's breast. This allows your baby to position the teat at the correct angle for feeding and mimic the natural action of breastfeeding.
Anti-Colic Vents: The superior anti-colic vents in the nipple allow air to enter the bottle preventing a vacuum building up. This vents the bottle and allows your baby to feed continuously, reducing the risk of wind and painful colic.

Protect & Feed Burma's Schoolchildren
Roll over image to zoom in
Help Nurture and Educate Young Refugees. Your donation will be matched by a generous, anonymous donor up to $10,000!
Like many Thai towns along the Thailand-Burma border, Mae Sot is a sanctuary for Burmese refugees in their flight from the upheaval of civil war in their own country. Tens of thousands of Karen and other Burmese minorities subsist on the fringes of the Thai economy and await a brighter future. For 20 years, the Mae Tao Clinic has provided life-saving care to Burma's displaced population, especially its children.
There are 286,000 Burmese migrants living in the Tak province, and the overwhelming majority are under the age of 19. Parents often send their children to Thailand in effort to further their education and avoid the risks of unsafe child labor. Boarding houses give these children a stable environment in which to continue their education, either in Thai schools or migrant learning centers. However, there is not enough consistent donor support for the growing number of boarding houses, apart from Mae Tao Clinic's Dry Food Programme (DFP), which provides the children with dry food rations, and hygiene and bedding supplies.
The DFP provides the primary nourishment for 3,000 migrant students via rice, tin fish, oil, yellow beans, salt, and sweet powder. Without these essential food donations, many boarding houses would be unable to provide for the children.
You can help this essential, shoe-string budget program continue to nurture these vulnerable children. Just $10 provides food for a student for a whole month. Right now, your donation will be matched dollar for dollar, up to $10,000
Report from the Field
GreaterGood Visits Mae Tao Boarding Schools
November 2013
This October, I had the opportunity to visit two Mae Tao boarding schools created for orphaned Burmese children. Each day, these children are fed through the GreaterGood sponsored Dry Food Programme Gift That Gives More. For less than 30 cents per day, every child was ensured three nutritious meals.
Dr Cynthia explained there would be no reason to educate these children if they were not well fed, because a hungry child cannot learn. She also explained that if it weren't for these boarding house schools, these children would probably be homeless with few job prospects outside of migrant field work. Instead, these children were all healthy in part thanks to your support of the Dry Food Programme. Lynn Peterson, GreaterGood
Mae Tao Clinic, founded by Dr. Cynthia Maung in 1988 to serve the flood of displaced Burmese people surging across the border into Thailand, has served tens of thousands of Burmese refugees living in the border region of Mae Sot, Thailand. In November 2007, the Taiwan Foundation for Democracy named Dr. Cynthia Maung as the winner of the 2007 Asia Democracy and Human Rights Award.
Community Partners International is dedicated to serving the most vulnerable people in Burma/Myanmar's remote villages, underserved central areas and conflict-affected border regions where there is little to no access to health care or public health education. Our global network has partnered with more than 60 local organizations, including the Mae Tao Clinic, collaborating on community-based health projects and providing health skills training, resources, and technical support.

Jan. 30 Talkback: Second amendment, political defense, dogs attack
Post office
I noticed that the passport window at the post office on Laurens Street has a sign that said: "Passport assistance by appointments only." This same sign at one time said, "And walk-ins are welcome also." Does this mean that if you come in to the Aiken downtown post office for passport assistance without an appointment, no one will wait on you? So much for customer service at a time when the post office ought to be going out of their way to offer services and friendly assistance to customers. Say it ain't so, Joe?

Anyone traveling with a Virgo need not wear a watch, since the Virgin has an internal (and external) clock which hums to perfection.
When traveling, the Virgin can jump out of bed at 7 AM, make a 7:35 train, pull into the station at 8:32 and know that the next bus is in seven minutes. Is this even fun? You bet, since those born under this sign are highly organized and love a routine, even when traveling. Better yet, call it a rhythm, for hitting the road with these folks will be a delicious mix of sightseeing, knowledge-gathering and good, clean fun.
And heaven help the one who upsets this apple cart! Virgos love this sense of order, thank you very much, meticulously planning their trips well in advance. These folks want to experience as many things as possible and will try and fit in all in on every trip, the better to get their money's worth. The major museums would certainly be visited in Florence, while the best Cajun bets would be savored in The Big Easy.
Looks count, too, which is why the Virgin's luggage is always nice and the day's attire is both clean and pressed. Although they enjoy traveling with a partner, Virgos are also perfectly happy to hit the road alone. Whatever the case, it will be a sensible journey!

By Maurielle LueFox 2 NewsDETROIT (WJBK) -- Shut down and locked up. Operation Compliance is in full effect. Detroit's Building and Safety Department cracked down on almost half a dozen illegal businesses Thursday operating without a license or permit from the city.Places such as Sunny's Tire Shop, a cesspool of violations."It's going to take 13 days tops," says Sunny Money. "I want my customers to know I will be back. I will be back on track. Trust me."He is optimistic. There is a lot of work to be done. Sunny's Tire Shop of the 14000 block of Tireman is zoned for retail not selling used tires. There are plumbing issues and shoddy electrical hookups, including a space heater with burned out wires -- an accident waiting to happen in a tire shop."I'm going to do what it takes to get it right. I'm going to clear everything out. I'm going to do what's right. I'm going to make sure all the tires are in a good environment," Money says.In all, four out of six businesses were shut down. Two got up to code just before the bust.There are more than 1,500 illegal businesses in Detroit, many in buildings that are supposed to be vacant. But a task force created to tackle this problem is driving that number way down."We'll probably do about 18 a week beginning next week," says Glenn Davis with the City of Detroit. "We're coming. We will be there, and our effort is to help. We don't want to close anyone."The businesses that can reopen must go through the city for proper permits after all the fees are paid. All of the business owners shut down Thursday received a compliance letter in fall of 2012, but some people have to learn the hard way."It's very hard for me right now. I'm smiling for no reason right now. Basically I'm crying in my heart, but I will get back up. I promise you that. I will," says Money. "They don't call me Sunny Money for nothing."Some of the police on the scene say shutting down businesses like this is a good thing because business owners who do not pay city taxes leads to smaller paychecks and city layoffs.

Ubisoft's New PC DRM Really Requires Net Access, Ends Game If DisconnectedUbisoft wasn't kidding when it said that its new digital rights management technique mandates "an active Internet connection to play the game, for all game modes."
Advance copies of the first two games to embrace the new solution--Assassin's Creed II PC and The Settlers 7 PC--recently arrived at PC Gamer, leading to the discovery that the games automatically shut down if temporarily disconnected from the Internet.
In the case of Assassin's Creed II PC, a single-player game, players will lose any progress since the last checkpoint in the event that they briefly lose their connection to Ubisoft's master servers, be it because of client-side or server-side issues.
Other aspects of the new system include a lack of disc checks and installation limited, along with the ability for saved games to be stored in a server-side cloud. "Most upcoming Ubisoft PC games will make use of this system," according to the company, which has also promised to patch in offline support when or if the system shuts down.

They're separated by 60 years, but on Monday night Al Kaline and Collin Trask came together as a 17-year-old boy fighting cancer got to meet one of his baseball heroes."It was kind of just awe," said Trask. "You always hear about him, and to finally be able to see him, get to shake his hand and talk to him was really fun."in 2007, Collin was diagnosed with medulloblastoma, a brain tumor, but on Monday night with his favorite player's name across his back and he was a guest of the Tigers for a special night he'll never forget."It's just wonderful to be able to do the things I want," Trask said.The good days have been few and far between for the Trasks since Collin's diagnosis in 2007, but they have been lifted by hundreds of families and students from Birmingham Seaholm High School, as well as a teacher, who have raised more than $17,000 to help get him to Duke."With this last recurrence, they've run out of treatments here, and that's why we're going to Duke," his mother explained.Over the next six months, Collin and his mom will make several trips down to Duke University for a special treatment program, but it's days like these that help him feel more like a normal kid."I love coming and seeing the baseball," said Trask.If you would like to post a message for Collin, visit CarePages.com.

Comments On Jun 11, 2014:Worth the money saves from paper filters
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Jun 07, 2014:Very nice not having to spend money and recycle oil filters every two/three rides. Rinse with water, degreaser, and wipe clean. Filter has maintained intact and taken the abuse the CRF450R dishes out. I might order another one just in case because the conditions these things endure is rough. I would hate to miss a ride because of an oil filter. I've read some people have trouble with stainless steel filters falling apart (there are about four different major suppliers out there). No problems with TUSK after 30 hours and still looks brand-new. I will post again when/IF it falls apart on me.

Comments On Mar 02, 2014:Does the job. My engine hasn't blown up yet. So it must be working. It is saving me money every oil change. I'd rather use a reusable filter and change my oil more often. Rather Than buying a reg filter and change it less because of the expense

Comments On Feb 19, 2014:Another great Tusk product. I've used them on my last few bikes. They are a big money saver over paper filters and there is lots of evidence that their filtration is more reliable than paper. Works well and priced right.

Comments On Dec 20, 2013:O rings came loose when installing it the first time. If I had not noticed, could have been an issue. Be careful, second time worked great. I will purchase again, just be careful with install.

Comments On Oct 27, 2013:The KTM 690 takes 2 filters. I've used stainless filters by other manufacturers and these by tusk are by far tbe worst. 1st they do not have a high pressure bypass valve like many others, which you wouldn't think a SS reusable would need, but I've seen a collapsed metal filter if the oil has any water in it due to blown head gasket. Anyway the reason for 1 star is that after the 1st use the back of the filter separated from the filter when I pulled it out. I had to spend nearly an hour trying to get the back of the filter out of the bike. Recommend a different brand as the epoxy used in these is inferior. TECH NOTE:THE OEM FILTER FOR THIS BIKE DOESN'T HAVE A HIGH PRESSURE BYPASS.

Comments On Oct 06, 2013:I like to test new products for durability. After trying the Tusk S.S. filter on my off road bike for several hundred hours i am satified it works and is durable. It is now also on my motocross bike and my dual sport bke. The fact that I can clean and reinstall on multiday rides is just a bonus.

Comments On Aug 14, 2013:The Tusk stainless steel reusable oil filter is great! Regular oil filters have to be changed too often and end up being more costly than the reusable ones. It's definitely worth it to spend the extra money on the reusable filter and save money in the long run.

Comments On Jul 08, 2013:Seems to filter great, and are much more affordable in the long run!!

The waters of Maine are exhilarating, restorative and invigorating. There's no better place to explore them than the Kennebec Valley Region, where you'll find every type of inland water adventure imaginable.
If it's the thrill of Maine's powerful whitewater rapids that you seek, you'll find it waiting for you here. The rushing rapids will beg you to accept their challenge. Maine's Dead River, which flows from Flagstaff Lake, offers the longest continuous stretch of Class III to V whitewater in the East. The sixteen-mile trip begins below Grand Falls, culminating at the famous Big Poplar Falls and the confluence with the Kennebec River in The Forks.
If it's what lies beneath the Maine waters that you're interested in, you'll find the abundance of fish in Kennebec Valley's many lakes to be truly incredible. As you cast your line as far as you can, watching your bait make a perfect arc and splash into the calm water, you'll feel a connection to the water and to Maine.
The central valleys offer more than just water exploration. Hiking is an all-season activity in any area of the state, but in this region you'll have the chance to hike a piece of American history: the Appalachian Trail.
And if it's history you like, the Maine State Museum in Augusta presents the unique culture and story of Maine. You'll find more surprises inside the Theatre of Monmouth, the Waterville Opera House, or back at Old Fort Western, to name only a few.
Take a drive down one of Maine's most storied roads, the Kennebec-Chaudiere Corridor. Running from Quebec City to Popham Beach, Maine, most of this scenic drive runs through the Kennebec Valley. Along the way, you'll encounter the beauty of Maine's small towns. They're unexpected, unique, and yet all part of one authentic whole.
And as with all regions of Maine, the fall and winter bring a new set of discoveries, from snowmobiling to ice fishing and holiday celebrations. There's something new for you in the Kennebec Valley, in every season.
So come anytime, and start anywhere.
