BANDA ACEH, Indonesia -- A tsunami watch around the Indian Ocean has been lifted hours after two powerful earthquakes hit off Indonesia's western coast. The 8.6- and 8.2-magnitude earthquakes triggered panic Wednesday afternoon. Residents in coastal cities fled to high ground in cars and on the backs of motorcycles.
The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center in Hawaii lifted a tsunami watch for most areas of the Indian Ocean about four hours after the first quake. It was still in effect for Indonesia, India, the Maldives, Sri Lanka and the island territory of Diego Garcia.
Major damage or tsunami waves locally were not reported.

New Pittsburgh Courier salutes Fab 40
Category: Metro Written by Nikki Coffee Denton
Some of Pittsburgh's most elite, young leaders were inducted into the New Pittsburgh Courier's 2010 Fab 40 class on March 26. If it's up to this group of honorees, the future looks extremely bright.
DR. BARRETT WOODS, Lance Woods, Camille Davidson, Dr. Shailen Greene, Suzanne Woods, Elizabeth Greene, Tyrone Greene and Royce Woods.
Celebrating their success in areas such as social service, corporate, health care and education, each honoree brings a gift of having taken advantage of the doors opened by those who have gone before them. Not forgetting where they've come from, these leaders under the age of 40 have reached back to help others reach upward. They've become the change we've all waited for.
WTAE's meteorologist, Demetrious Ivory, a 2009 Fab 40 honoree, emceed the event, held in the upper lobby of the U.S. Steel Tower. Ivory said this year's group of honorees is a fresh crop from a wide range of career paths, who just don't take 'no' for an answer.

help with a Png background image
Hi everyone
i have a PNG that has a dropshadow. the image uploads perfectly when i place it directly on the page:
However problems occur when i try to upload it as a background image.;
First it does not seem to load on this url . However, even when i did manage to upload it on another URL it dropped the shadow and only the black 960X 400px black box remained.
I am not sure what to do; any help or assistance would be greatly appreciated.
warm regards
@andreea115, the second pen you had an extra
in your URL, it's working now:http://codepen.io/anon/pen/gavKE
Just out of curiosity, why don't you just have a div with a black background and a box-shadow on the div?
You were using the wrong URL in the 2nd example: http://codepen.io/ggilmore/pen/d4ad0e86862a86694d02a424a7a0b30b
hi guys
so sorry for the mistake; i don't know why i did not see it; thanks. thanks again to ChrisP for his advice. i am not sure how to use a box_shadow on a div. Is this a CSS3 or will this work on all browsers?
i will google box-shadows now.
Here's a pen http://codepen.io/anon/pen/EJsjF
Unfortunately, it's not supported in IE until 9, but since it's usually used cosmetically, if you're ok without them showing up in IE8 and lower, it'll be fine

Common sense needed to avoid fiscal cliff
November 28, 2012 · 1:55 PM
Everyone talks that are we going over the fiscal cliff. How bad will be the fall? The answer depends upon congressional and presidential action before the Dec. 31 deadline.
The administration is spending us into trillions in debit and the lack of emphasis on establishing an environment for job creation by small businesses will make for a very rocky jolt at the bottom unless our leadership starts governing with some common sense instead of political jockeying.

It looks like Lassen County's bitter ambulance war is over.
That was the word from Sheriff Ron Jarrell in a report to the Board of Supervisors at the Tuesday, Jan. 28 meeting.
Jarrell told the board that dispatchers are now sending the closest ambulance to the scene of any accident or medical emergency unless a client prefers one of the two Susanville ambulance firms.
Jarrell said Lassen Ambulance owner Brad Reger and Sierra Life Support owner Ryan Potter agreed to the arrangement in a December meeting. Previously, the ambulance firms traded every other call for help unless the client had a preference.

Two natural gas meters broke apart during installation on Ash Street because of high pressure in city gas lines.
"Moisture in the gas caused the regulation station to allow higher that normal gas pressure to get on the city side of the regulation station," said City Public Works Director Louie Templeton.
The problem developed on Monday, Jan. 28.
The city's natural gas crew, led by Craig Platt and employees Dale Moore and Ron Johnson, got everyone back in service the same day.

As the Great Hall and Common Rooms have been stirred up by it in recent days, I don't believe many of you are surprised to see that I am here to speak openly about cheating on Pottermore.
First, I want to make clear that whether or not cheating is going on is NOT IN DEBATE here. Cheating is happening.More than likely it is occuring in all houses, but some users are more blatant about it than others. The most blatant example sits atop the leader board as I draft this: SnitchSpirit168.
SS (as he will be referred to for the remainder of this post) has been utilizing a computer program (also known as a "Bot") of his own design to duel for him. It runs 24 hours a day dueling while he goes about other tasks (such as sleeping). He is not shy about this, discussing it openly in the common room:
and also on his twitter account:
The twitter is a genuine account. When SS first found me on Twitter I demanded he verify his identity, and he did so by sending me a dueling request:
I provide these so that we can save all ourselves the "is SS cheating?" debate on here that I've seen everywhere else and go forward all knowing that SS is running a bot without any shadow of a doubt. Fair enough?
Now let me be clear: I do not believe he is the only cheater on Pottermore. Nor do I believe he is the only cheater running a Bot on Pottermore. However his is proven and open whereas others are suspect but not proven. Now that all of that is out of the way, let me proceed.
I have attempted to pen this many times in the past and succumbed to anger and had to desist. Finally I feel I must speak on it. As a voice in the Pottermore Community I have kept quiet about it here on the blog for too long.
I am against cheating on Pottermore in any and all forms.
That's right folks, I am a Slytherin and I am against cheating for the earning of points. In fact, the majority of Slytherin agrees with me. I'm sure you have all had that bad egg in your Common Room suggesting someone make an account in another house to lose on purpose. As I'm sure the reaction in your common room is similar to in ours: multiple people reply saying we don't need to or want to cheat, and encourage (rather forcefully) that the person desist with the idea and return to earning points the honest way.
Though I am sure a portion of those people go through with their illicit plans, it is not with the endorsement of the entire house. Just as I'm sure the accounts that are often found in Slytherin intentionally losing to other houses were not doing so with the endorsement of THEIR entire house.
There are cheaters in all houses but on the whole most users in all houses are not cheating.
I beg you all not to judge an entire house based on the few bad eggs, like SS, who are determined to find ways to cheat the system. Hufflepuff is being hurt more than helped by the actions of their leader board cheater. They don't need house hate to be added to this. It does not help anyone and does not remedy the situation.
I am here to encourage you to make the right choice between cheating and not cheating. And to share with you how I handle things when I come across cheaters and trolls.
We all want our house to win the House Cup. I'm sure this urge to win was not dampened by the bonus they gave Slytherin after the last cup, but do remember that this is a game and that the more important goal for Pottermore is to create a fun environment for Potter fans to play and interact in.
Cheating, spying, and trolling only serves to ruin the fun for others, including those in your own house.
For those of you who have friended me on Pottermore you probably know that I love to duel. I duel for at least an hour a day, and some days more. In the run up to the cup it was much much more. Also, in the run up to the cup cheaters were attempting anything they could to put their house ahead of the others. Including making accounts in other houses to lose on purpose. Whenever I hit, in open duels, an account that was obviously doing so I refused to continue dueling that user. I can normally tell that person because they lose with a zero potency the first duel, and then immediately rematch me anyway. This rematch is normally ANOTHER zero potency spell at which point I start to hit decline if I see that user come up in my dueling queue. I know it can be tempting to carry on dueling someone who is quite obviously not trying, it is easy to see house points with little effort and want to succumb to the temptation. But I encourage you, if you know that a person is doing so to cease participation on your end. Then feel proud you had the self-control to do so.
Trolling and Spying are a whole different aspect of "cheating" that is difficult to deal with on Pottermore. We've all seen them in our Common Rooms and in the Great Hall. These users seem to get enjoyment out of annoying and pestering the people posting there. I have adopted a "don't feed the trolls" mindset when it comes to these situations. In other words, I do not directly reply or respond to them. Instead I simply go down through their comments and hit report placing the reason of "trolling" or "spamming" in the reason box. Then I proceed to carry on normal conversation around the offensive posts. These people are looking for reactions to their outlandish statements, and by not giving them a reaction we take the enjoyment out of it for them. Instead of attempting to "shout them down" which will only lead to getting reported yourself, try to ignore them and report them instead. You would be surprised how fast a user posting inappropriate posts will end up banned or suspended.
The important thing to remember about trolls and spies posting in the Great Hall is that the house they are posting from is probably not their true house.
I want to emphasize that this is a community of millions of people, and that people are capable of creating accounts in other houses. It is easy if one wanted to smear the name of a house to create an account in that house and go trolling in the Great Hall. Chances are they are just trying to stir trouble. So do your best to not feed trolls.
Which brings us to the piece of this puzzle that has brought me to finally creating this lovely essay against cheating: BOTS!
I don't think any of us would defend the actions of SS or any other user who has created a Bot program to duel for them. I know that nothing is more frustrating for me then when I look at my dueling results and realize that most of my responses are from a Bot. Starts to feel futile after a while, but please try not to let it ruin your experience. And again do not let it tarnish your opinion of the house from which the cheater hails. Hufflepuff is not full of cheaters just because SnitchSpirit is in their house. Just like Slytherin isn't full of cheaters just because of the books stating we will use "any means to achieve our end".
At the moment there is no true recourse for dealing with a Bot. You could switch which house you are dueling, if you are so inclined, but remember that there are probably Bots active in all houses and you might not even realize you are facing one. If you suspect that a user is a Bot pretty much the only thing you can do is report that user to Pottermore with the reasons you believe they are a Bot. Not all Bots are going to be as obvious as SS, as I doubt all programmers are capable of programming as successful of a program. The first thing to start looking at if you suspect a Bot is whether or not the user goes off line. There are some excellent duelers who can pull down thousands of points in a couple hours the honest way, and we wouldn't want to start turning in honest users. Enlist help if you need it. You can even send me a message about it here on the blog, or on twitter ( @ElmBlade43) and I can check their online status at times you might not be available to.
If you have established a solid belief that a user is cheating using a Bot, the next step is to report them and to include in your message why you believe them to be cheating.
To send in a message to Pottermore follow the following steps:
- Proceed to the Pottermore help page by clicking here.
- Click on the "Other" heading to expand this section. You will have to scroll down to see the headings in this section.
- Click on the "What's Next?" heading to expand this section.
- Click on the "Need more help?" with the downward pointing arrow. This will reveal an e-mail form to send a message to Pottermore.
After this, the actions of that cheater are beyond your control. We must leave it in the hands of Pottermore to make adjustments to security to prevent the Bots from continuing to operate on the Dueling platform. Right now a simple adjustment in how CAPTCHA works would probably hinder them to a certain point (if CAPTCHA could not be gotten around by logging off), but with things in their current programming state the Bots have nothing really stopping them from operating on site. I don't expect this to remain this way for long, now that so many people have been reporting cheating to Pottermore.
The most important thing is to try to ignore them and have fun. Try to understand that people in the Great Hall might not know that SS and others are cheating, and try not to route your anger towards the wrong people. Remember that not everyone in one house is cheating and that no entire house deserves to be punished for the acts of a few.
We are in this together. We are family. We are Potterheads. And we can not, and should not, forget this even in the face of cheating and adversity. So please, stand with me. Stand up to cheating. Make it clear in your Common Rooms and in the Great Hall that you do not use or condone underhanded means on Pottermore. Encourage others to support each other and not hate each other. Post on your blogs. On your twitters. On your facebooks.
We are all in this together.
I can not tell you how many people I have met in all houses since I joined Pottermore that I consider to be good friends of mine. I have worked WITH members of all houses against cheating. I support all houses alike. Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, Gryffindor, and Slytherin.
We are all in this together.
And you can be a part of the team, or you can be the next SnitchSpirit. It is your choice. Stand together or let the site turn into Robots fighting Robots.
Imagine this with the words "♫♪ Everybody was ro-bot dueling". Thought we'd end on a light note.

How to simplify in the extreme
February 7, 2013Sometimes you're thrown into a situation that makes a mess of your well-laid plans.
And sometimes you're thrown into a situation that's ten times more complicated than that.
Perhaps budgets are being slashed at the company where you work…and fast.
Or the stock market…well…we don't need to go into that. We've all seen the wild ride the stock market offers at times.
Or a key member of your company or team decides to move to another company.
Even worse, they've been lured away by your key competitor. And you don't have anyone to backfill their knowledge and customer connections.
Or an always-healthy loved one is suddenly rushed to the hospital.
In chaotic times what do you do to simplify the chaos?
And not just simplify, but as is often required in such unwieldy and unpredictable times, to simplify in the extreme?
Try one or more of these four steps:
1. Focus on one priority.
Yes, just ONE priority.
When you're trying to right a world that has turned upside down, you don't need the drag and confusion of trying to juggle multiple goals.
Like a laser beam, narrow your focus to a single point, your sole priority for now.
2. Let go. Say no.
The only way you're going to let go is to say no.
And if that's not easy for you, well, frankly, that's tough.
You need the skill of clearing out the underbrush and letting go of extraneous things for now.
You find in extreme simplification times that what was once important – and may be again later – is far from a priority now.
Practice the word, "No," until you can say it with the calm confidence to back it up.
3. Pay attention.
You need easy-to-gather information that will tell you if you're getting back on track.
Figure out a few key indicators you can count on. These measures are like the dials and knobs on the control panel.
Then pay attention.
Use them.
Simply, consistently.
4. Follow up.
Take the time to see how things are working…or to face the facts that they aren't yet.
If the action you're taking isn't taking you where you need to go, adjust, again.
And again, if you must.
Your world will right itself, but it needs your help.
Simplify, in the extreme.

What the legal community is saying
Teresa Metcalf Beasley, senior counsel, Calfee, Halter & Griswold LLP
Integrity and professionalism will continue to be the standards by which legal leaders are judged, but increasingly they will also need to be creative as well as strategic thinkers, flexible in outlook and approach, collaborative, and proactive. Attorneys must continue to build and maintain relationships — professional and personal. An individual's reputation is a key attribute to one's success and continued development as a leader in the profession. A sense of humor never hurts, either.
I see as an opportunity what others may see as a challenge and that is flexibility and adaptability. Clients' business needs are ever-changing with changes to the market as well as technology. As lawyers, we must be ready to change and adapt to new business opportunities, cultures, changes in technology as well as changes in the law in order to provide clients with the best legal advice and guidance. As our clients' needs develop and change, as attorneys we must be ready and able to grow and change with our clients by being flexible and ready to adapt to new strategies and technologies.
Craig M. Boise, dean, Cleveland-Marshall College of Law
The legal sector leaders of tomorrow will above all need to be prepared to lead dramatic change. Traditionally, change within the legal sector — for both law firms and law schools — has been glacial. We now face unprecedented challenges that will require us to learn quickly the adaptability and innovation that have long characterized the business sector.
Downward pressure on costs is the greatest challenge the legal field faces over the next five years. Technology and outsourcing have transformed the way companies in virtually every other industry do business, and those companies are now demanding substantial cost concessions from their lawyers. This has led to a reduction in law firm hiring and lower associate wages, which in turn have forced law schools to examine their cost structures in light of a shrinking pool of prospective students.
Carter E. Strang, president, Cleveland Metropolitan Bar Association; partner, Tucker Ellis LLP
An unprecedented combination of legal and business acumen will define future winners. Attorneys will need to become more adept — as the pace of change increases — at using technology, managing projects and working in teams to improve efficiency, while still doing great work, quickly and at a fair, predictable price. They will also need to be more open to alternative work arrangements and more focused on inclusion and retention of a more diverse talent pool.
We have too many law school graduates unable to find employment in the profession or pay off their school loans. And, there is an increasingly large number of people with unmet legal needs, as a result of the economy and cuts to Legal Aid. We must do more to attract the "best and the brightest" to the state and local judiciary. At the federal level, significant budget cuts adversely impact the administration of justice, and an overly politicalized confirmation process keeps too many well-qualified judges from filling vacancies.
Jean Robertson, general counsel, Beck Aluminum
It took an earthquake of a recession to expose the inefficiencies that have long plagued large firms. To seize opportunities that drive business success in the future, the legal sector will need transparent leadership pipelines with a strategic view of agility and sustainability; it's going to be about the leaders who can anticipate trends and proactively innovate strategies for delivering value. I believe sustainability will be a differentiating factor for the legal sector. It will contribute to the survival of law firms and also serve to reshape the business climate for legal services and how clients measure the value of legal services.
A side effect of the recession was the negative impact it had on young lawyers. The demand for legal services declined and associates were hit hard by layoffs. A significant challenge for the legal sector is finding creative solutions to this side effect, and those who do will be positioned to seize opportunities from their competitors. Concerns about work in the pipeline, particularly transactional work, create additional challenges to the business of operating a law firm. Adjusting leverage by utilizing contract and non-partnership track attorneys can help reduce overhead but may negatively impact productivity. Maintaining positive growth in the number of diverse attorneys will also require significant attention.
Judge Dan Aaron Polster, U.S. District Court, Northern District of Ohio
Tomorrow's lawyers will need to be creative problem solvers, men and women who possess the skill and temperament to work collaboratively to assist their clients in the private, public and nonprofit sectors. Corporations, institutions and government all will need to change the way they operate and interact if the United States is to maintain its position of leadership in the world. Lawyers will be at the center of this process.
a) Providing equal access to justice. A growing percentage of our population cannot afford legal services.
b) Addressing the high cost of legal education, and the corresponding mountain of debt so many of our new lawyers face. This both reduces the career options for new lawyers, and creates significant entry barriers to the profession. If our profession ceases to reflect the diversity of our society, the rule of law is imperiled.
c) ... We need to make sure that our state and federal courts receive the resources necessary to dispense justice. We also need to insure adequate compensation for judges, and to find a way to ameliorate the intense partisanship over federal judicial nominations and confirmations that I fear is affecting the breadth and quality of the pool of applicants to the federal bench.

"There comes a time in every bridge player's life when he has to unguard a king," wrote Bob Jones, of Tampa, who sent in this hand. "That way, you might be able to conceal your distribution from the opponents."
From the moment North-South bid game, Jones realized that, because of his light, opening bid, he would be marked with every outstanding high card. With North's re-opening double and raise to game with only 14 points in the balancing position, his double might have been made with only 11 points.
West led his top spade, and Jones overtook, in case his partner was leading a singleton. Declarer won and drove out the ace of clubs. Jones persisted with spades to set up his suit.
Declarer then ran his clubs, and on the fourth round of the suit, Jones calmly blanked his king of diamonds.
Declarer continued with the king and ace of hearts. Jones continued to befuddle declarer, following suit first with the eight and, then, the queen.
It seemed to declarer that Jones had started with five spades, two hearts, three clubs and, therefore, three diamonds, and that he was down to three spades and the guarded king of diamonds. Declarer confidently threw Jones in with a spade. He expected that Jones would be able to cash three spade tricks but that he would have to lead a diamond away from his king and declarer's combined ace, queen and 10.
He was partly right. Jones did cash three spade tricks, but, then, he exited with his three of hearts to his partner's Jack to set the contract at one trick.

Does Resurrection Contradict Science?
So what then does Resurrection mean? For Benedict it represents a new dimension of reality breaking through into human experience. It is not a violation of the old; it is the manifestation of something new.
Saturday Sermon: The Power of the Gospel
BioLogos has been following a sermon series by Pastor Tim Keller entitled The Bible: The Whole Story-Redemption and Restoration." The book of Romans masterfully addresses the solution to the issues raised in Genesis.
Saturday Sermon: Who is Jesus? Part 2
Today's featured message focuses on the uniqueness of Christ Jesus. This week's discourse accentuates Jesus' engagement in history, his disclosure of reality, his embodiment of the ideal, and finally, his triumph over the grave.
Saturday Sermon: Who is Jesus?
Although it is now clear that we, "the sons and daughters of Adam," were created through an evolutionary process, we believe that all of humankind has a fallen nature in need of redemption. Like Eve before us, we hear a voice telling us that we can sort out good and evil on our own. We don't need God, we think.

Series: What I Wish My Pastor Knew About... The Life of a Scientist
Andy Crouch examines the life of a scientist based on his experience of walking alongside his wife Catherine, an experimental physicist. That relationship has shown him that a life in science is a journey "into a set of virtues," of cultivating a specific character suited to the particular demands of research and investigation. Crouch's hope is to persuade pastors and others in the church to prayerfully support the scientific endeavor as a reflection of God's image in humankind as well as offers some suggestions for ministering to their needs.
Awe in Science
If we can understand the experiences of the people who work every day in the lab, our dialogues concerning science and religion will be far more fruitful.
Series: Harmonizing Science, Ethics, and Praxis
In this three-part series, Cal DeWitt offers insights and examples of why science and ethics must work together to help us make informed, practical decisions within our society. DeWitt's science-ethics-praxis model provides a framework by which we can live more effectively as God's stewards.
Katharine Hayhoe: Evangelical Christian, Climate Scientist
As an Evangelical and a scientist, Katharine Hayhoe is already a member of a rare breed. As a climate change researcher who is also married to an evangelical Christian pastor, she is nearly one of a kind.
Can Science Ever Know Enough?
To say something is poetic is not to declare it ultimately untrue, futile and meaningless—it is to say it is more profound and meaningful and true than many other modes of expression.
Jesus the Artist
Speaking in parables is indeed similar to an artist's craft. They create impressions, whole new worlds of meaning intended to turn old worlds on their heads.
"Come and See": A Christ-centered Invitation for Science
Classical Christian orthodoxy as expressed in the Creeds begins at the beginning: nature owes its existence to and is sustained by Jesus Christ. One implication is that the best way of finding out about nature is to look at nature.
Science and Faith on a Secular Campus
While many Christian colleges actively seek to help their students engage issues of faith and science constructively, few secular colleges are active in promoting the conversation. As a professor at a secular school, how can I encourage my students to authentic engagement and dialogue on science and faith issues?
Series: Asa Gray and Charles Darwin Discuss Evolution and Design
Many Christians believe that they face a painful choice-- either life was designed by God or it is an evolutionary product of natural selection. Charles Darwin himself believed in this dichotomy, and people ever since have felt the need to "choose sides". However, looking back at history, we find that one of Darwin's chief scientific colleagues, Asa Gray, did not share this perspective. In this three-part essay, part 1 charts the relationship of Asa Gray and Charles Darwin. Part 2 describes Darwin's struggle with the problem of natural evil and design in nature, and part 3 explores how Asa Gray was able to embrace evolution without rejecting the idea of design.
David Lack and Darwin's Finches
Considering the immense popularity of "Darwin's finches", it is quite surprising to learn that Charles Darwin himself had very little to say about them. In fact, it was actually David Lack, one century later, who conducted the critical research that immortalized the finches in biology textbooks and popular lore.
The Beauty of Being a Scientist and a Christian
I am a Christian. I believe that God is the ultimate reality and that the world, including me, was created by God. But this is not just an idle affirmation, a faith statement to be recited in church on Sunday.
What is Scientism?
Scientism is a rather strange word, but for reasons that we shall see, a useful one. Though this term has been coined rather recently, it is associated with many other "isms" with long and turbulent histories: materialism, naturalism, reductionism, empiricism, and positivism.
Series: A Quest for God
In this five part series, two young men, Josh and Aron, engage each other through e-mail letters. Their conversation oscillates between the seemingly suspicious elements of God and the gospel (raised by Josh) as well as responses that offer meaningful insight into these questions (answered by Aron). Ideas such as prayer, judgment, and the concealed nature of God are among the many points in this truth-seeking exchange.
Dead Bones with a Living Message
In this video, Pääbo covers a lot of ground, noting several lines of genetic evidence for the evolution of modern humans from earlier hominids in Africa, as well as for the interbreeding between early humans and Neanderthals.
Art, Worship, Creation, and Imaginative Engagement
We should not be ashamed of the fact that our faith integrates spirit and body; our faith calls us to regard the stuff of creation in all of its materiality as good, and thus offers the best starting point for the practice and pleasure of art.
Series: The Collapsing Universe in the Bible
This series written by Brian Godawa delves into eschatological passages with "de-creation language." He argues that these passages do not foretell literal geophysical events to come, but, put into the context of the Old Testament thinking, actually describe the dethroning of worldly powers and the establishing of God's kingdom on Earth. This, according to Godawa, happened when Jesus Christ came in the flesh.

Thanksgiving Travel Outlook
By: Kevin Flanigan
Updated: November 21, 2012
No matter how you plan to get to your Thanksgiving destination, millions of people will be out there traveling at the same time. More Americans are hitting the road this Thanksgiving. The Automobile Association of America estimates that 43.6 million people will be on the move this Thanksgiving this year and will be traveling 50 miles or more to get to their holiday destination.
Roughly 90 percent of those who are traveling are expected to make their trips by car. While most of the travel will take place on the highways, airport and rail lines also report a significant bump up in pre-Thanksgiving business.
Spending on travel is also going up with year. Higher prices for gas, airline fares and hotel stays are all contributing to an expected 7 % increase in holiday travel spending. The head of AAA says the travel industry seems to be picking up at this time of year because gathering with family is more important to some people than saving money.
Analysts say this will be the fourth year in a row that the number of people traveling is up. Because of the extra congestion that is expected on area highways, travel experts say motorists should give themselves plenty of extra time to reach their holiday destinations.

Light, yes, but certainly not tough!
By lavignej
from Otterburn Park, QC
I purchased the scuba diving luggage bag for a trip down south. It was big enough (perhaps a bit too much) and light as advertised. Unfortunately, returning from this single vacation, a stitch had given away - leaving open a 3 inch gap in front of the bag. And believe me, it was not overpacked. I understand the bag can be tossed around but that should be no excuse for lousy stitching! And I don't think that Leisure Pro, who sells through [@], could follow up on that. :-(
