The bar is better?

What is best a rod from St. Croix Legend Elite or Avid and G Loomis IMX Series?

Ok, the better comarison as follows: St. Croix Legend Elite vs. Loomis GLX – these are the flagship models rodmakers – both are very light and both have fast extreme actions (too fast IMO). Both are made of graphite generation 5. The Loomis Rod is a bit more expensive but nicer hardware (reelseat, etc.) Wait pay about $ 500 for Santa Cruz and $ 625 for St. Croix Legend Ultra vs Loomis Loomis IMX (Metolius) – These are made of graphite generation 4. The difference is that Loomis offers a selection of candles in any Pesentation (medium fast) or high line speed (very fast). Legend Ultra is an action bar quick <I own again, the Loomis nice accessories. the Santa Cruz runs about $ 300 – $ 350, the Loomis $ 350 – $ 380 Avid Series would be compared with Loomis GL3 Both are medium fast action rods. The Santa Cruz is made of graphite generation 2, generation of Loomis 3. Avid will offer more legnths that GL3 and costs about $ 60 less. Both have connections cheaper than their more expensive counterparts. Which rod is better? Well, for someone who is a pitcher for the IMX Loomis experts. For someone who is a good pitcher and all-purpose, I'd say the Loomis GLX presentaion cone (if you want to spend a lot). For For Of course, Avid Santa Cruz is not far behind and is offered in more configurations than any other model in this list. Nowadays, people tend to think that the faster the bar is not the best – so. Flexible tip rods are cast to shoot dogs and not exactly the best tool for work on fishing nearby. So, in short, if the big river fishing with big flies and you are an expert pitcher spend the money on the Loomix IMX or Legend Elite. If you're fishing rivers of medium size and is not necessary to cast 60 + feet of St. Croix Avid is probably your best value, but if you want to spend the extra money in a presentaion Loomis Metolius sailing ahead.

Haiti: the magical land

Haiti: The Magic Land
By Alejandro Guevara Onofre

INTRODUCTION
In 1492 wrote Christopher Columbus on Haiti: "The most beautiful in the world. Indeed, Haiti is a wonderful country in the Caribbean. I think he has a special beauty, with geography and traditional culture that is totally different from all other countries in Latin America.

But this essay is an information historical information on Haiti, the first black Republic in modern history and one of the poorest nations on Earth. Each chapter provides details on the history, the economy, biographies, sports, awards, external relations, culture and other important aspects of Haiti. People who do not know much thinking Haiti Haiti is only one of the world's poorest countries, but the island is known for its traditional culture, entertainment, superstitions, history. In addition, Haiti is home of National History Park, one of the ancient wonders of the world, and women of renown as Edwidge Danticat and Michaëlle Jean were born there.

Since then, dictatorships have destroyed Haitian society, economy, ecology and sport. Since 1950, two million people emigrated from Haiti to the United States and other countries. Haitian-American arrived in Haiti, with nothing but his clothes. If you compare today's Haiti Haiti thirty years ago, we see a change: a multiparty democracy new. Today, much of the Third World, and more than one billion people are under dictatorships.

Finally I would like to end my presentation with a Albert Mangones message: "Haiti is unique in history, goes directly from slavery to citizenship."
