Borrowdale – Rosthwaite to Watendlath round
Cumbria is a large county in North West England and contains the Lake District and Lake District National Park. It is bounded to the north by the Scottish Borders, Dumfries and Galloway, to the west by the Irish Sea, to the south by Lancashire, to the south east by North Yorkshire, and to the east by County Durham and Northumberland. Cumbria is very mountainous containing every peak in England over 3,000ft above sea level with Scafell Pike being England's highest mountain at 978 m (3,209ft). Cumbria is also one of England's most outstanding areas of natural beauty attracting mountain climbers, hikers and walkers, cyclists, runners and tourists and holds a source of inspiration for artists, writers and musicians. Cumbria consists of six districts Eden, Carlisle, Allerdale, Copeland, South Lakeland and Barrow-in-Furness.
The Lake District is an area with stunning scenery located within in the County of Cumbria. Commonly known as The Lakes or Lakeland it was granted National Park status on 9th May 1951 less than a month after the first UK designated National Park, The Peak District. It is the largest of thirteen National Parks in England and Wales and the largest in the UK after the Cairngorms. The Lake District National Park itself covers an area of 885 square miles and stretches 30 miles from Ravenglass in the west to Shap in the east and 35 miles from Caldbeck in the north to Lindale in the south. Crammed with so much natural beauty the Lakes attract visitors, tourists and holiday makers from all over the world. As the name suggests there are many lakes each with their own uniqueness, amenities and activities such as lakeside walks, sailing, waterskiing, boat trips and ferries. All of the lakes except Bassenthwaite Lake are named by water, tarn or mere and are surrounded by stunning scenery and magnificent fells. There are some wonderful towns to explore such as Keswick, Windermere, Ambleside, Kendal, Hawkshead, Grasmere and Cockermouth all with a splendid mixture of shops, cafes, pubs, bars and restaurants. There are also many museums, theatres, historic homes, gardens and many easy walks for the not so energetic visitor wishing not to climb the fells. William Wordsworth the famous British poet was born in Cockermouth and later lived in Grasmere where he wrote some of his best works before moving to Rydal Mount near Ambleside for his last 37 years. Both places are open to visitors and so is Brantwood home to John Ruskin until his death. Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Robert Southey and Thomas de Quincey all followed Wordsworth to the Lake District. Arthur Ransome, author of Swallows and Amazons, also grew to love the lakes and settled in the Winster Valley near Windermere. The painters Thomas Gainsborough, JMW Turner and John Constable were early visitors to the lakes but it was John Ruskin who settled here at Brantwood on the shore of Coniston Water. Farming and especially sheep farming has been historically and still is the main industry of the Lake District. The tough Herdwick breed with their stocky build and distinctive grey coat are especially hardy for the Lakeland fells and its weather. Sheep farming has probably been here since Viking times and is an important factor both to the economy of the lakes as well as in preserving the stunning landscape which attracts visitors and hence income to the region.
Borrowdale, often referred to as Cumberland Borrowdale to distinguish it from Borrowdale in the county of Westmorland, lies in the central Lake District. The River Derwent flows through the dale into the lake of Derwent Water. Derwent Water is situated at the northern end of the valley and the dramatic Honister Pass leads away from the southern end. Borrowdale is also completely within the Lake District National Park and houses the villages of Grange, Rosthwaite, Seathwaite, Seatoller, Stonethwaite and Watendlath. Above Grange Bridge, Borrowdale is constricted between the steep slopes of King's How on Grange Fell and Castle Crag below High Spy. This narrow gorge, known as the Jaws of Borrowdale, was carved by the last Ice Age and erosion over thousands of years. Borrowdale is one of the most beautiful places in Cumbria with sheep grazed uplands and extensive areas of oak woodland draping the hillsides. The valley pastures are divided into fields by massive stone walls and ancient packhorse tracks wind their way through the landscape along with the River Derwent and its tributaries. In the 16th century an enormous deposit of graphite was discovered near the hamlet of Seathwaite. Known locally as 'wadd' or 'black lead' the locals found it was very useful for marking sheep. This deposit of graphite was extremely pure and solid and it could easily be sawed into sticks hence the pencil industry was born in Keswick. Seatoller, a cluster of white and grey cottages at the foot of Honister Pass, once housed miners from the graphite mine and quarrymen from Honister Slate Mine. Slate quarrying developed in the early 18th century and a narrow band of Lakeland Green Slate running through Borrowdale and up to Honister became the primary building material for Victorian Keswick. Honister Slate Mine, reopened in 1996, continues to mine slate commercially and offers underground tours to visitors. The mine also offers a Via Ferrata tour which the Victorian miners used to use. The valley is a very popular tourist location, with hotels, guesthouses, holiday cottages, bed and breakfasts, youth hostels and campsites catering for the lowland visitor as well as the hill walker. The National Trust cares for and undertakes a great amount of conservation and access work in this very special and beautiful area.
Rosthwaite is a very small village, six miles south of Keswick, consisting of a few houses, the Royal Oak pub and the Flock-in Tearoom for walkers. The Royal Oak, once an 18th century farmhouse and former miner's tavern has been providing accommodation for visitors and walkers for over a hundred years. Since 1970 this small family run hotel have taken great pride in maintaining the homely atmosphere and excellent value for money. The Flock-in, a walker's tearoom, provides a good varied menu of local homemade food including gluten free soup, cake and ice cream. The tearoom at Yew Tree Farm is based in a barn opposite the farmhouse which provides bed and breakfast accommodation.
Watendlath is a very attractive hamlet and tarn owned by the National Trust and is situated at 263 metres between the Borrowdale and Thirlmere valleys surrounded by fells in a classic 'hanging valley'. Watendlath Tarn is 7 acres in size and was given to the National Trust by Queen Victoria's daughter, Princess Louise, in memory of her brother, King Edward VII. Blea Tarn Gill 210 metres above Watendlath Tarn, provides the tarn with its water which then flows into Watendlath Beck and eventually feeds Lodore Falls, a tourist attraction from Victorian times, and ends up in Derwent Water. The tarn is stocked with brown trout and rainbow trout and is popular with anglers. The Lakeland farm and the herd of Herdwick sheep are rented out by the National Trust aiming to ensure this rare breed survives. The hamlet houses a cafe, a tea room and also a Bothy which sits next to the tarn and should be treated very much as a 'stone tent' as it has very basic facilities so visitors are advised to take their own equipment as for camping. The traditional packhorse bridge leading into Watendlath is the most well known and most photographed packhorse bridge in England. The famous painting of Watendlath, by Dora Carrington in the early 20th century, hangs in the Tate Gallery. Watendlath was used by Sir Hugh Walpole as a setting for the fictional home of Judith Paris in his haunting Herries saga published in the early 1930's. Watendlath can be reached by a single track unmarked road leading off the Borrowdale Road. It is a steep climb with passing places and crosses the famous Ashness Bridge and then past Surprise View where it is possible to park and admire the whole view of the Derwent Water valley. There are no barriers at this cliff top so please take care with children.
Dock Tarn is a very pretty tarn situated on the moorland at 400 metres near the summit of Great Crag, midway between Watendlath, the Stonethwaite valley and Borrowdale. The small tarn, about 300 by 200 metres, has rocky headlands and bays and a tiny island with a few small Rowan trees growing on it. Watch out for the wildlife we saw two Goosanders.
The Cumbrian Way is a 70 mile long distance footpath passing through the heart of the Lake District National Park linking the two historic towns of Ulverston and Carlisle. The route cuts through the most beautiful Lakeland countryside via Coniston, Langdale, Borrowdale, Derwent Water, Skiddaw Forest and Caldbeck. The Cumbrian Way was originally developed in the 1970's by local Ramblers' Association members and is mainly low level but does contain some high level exposed sections and the highest point is High Pike at 658 metres (2,159 ft). The waymarking of the entire route was completed by volunteers and national park staff in May 2007.
The Walk
We turn left out of the car park and head forwards past the public toilets to the main road. We turn left then opposite the bus stop we turn right at the sign post for Watendlath 1½. After crossing the bridge we turn right and follow a narrow path between two walls with Stonethwaite Beck on our right. We pass through a gate and keep heading forwards and go through another gate. When we come to a sheep fold we start to bear left uphill. We go over a wall via a stile and keep heading forwards uphill through the trees. We cross over another stile and keep heading very steeply uphill. At the top we keep following the path by the side the stream until we arrive at Dock Tarn. We now keep following the path by the side of the tarn and when the path starts going downhill Watendlath comes into view. We keep heading downhill, going through a gate and over a stream in, until we arrive at Watendlath Tarn. We walk by the side of the tarn to the end and turn left at the signpost for Rosthwaite. We now follow the track uphill. The path levels out and we go through a gate before we start heading downhill. We keep heading downhill to a sign post and turn right through the gate and still keep heading downhill following the path back to Rosthwaite which we can now see in front of us.
This is a moderate to hard walk on distinct stony tracks with some very steep inclines and declines.

I always enjoy the debate our readers have about what to wear and what not to wear to a military ball or a homecoming event. We have the folks who wanna wear what they wanna wear cuz they are hot enough to wear it.
We have the people who wanna school others on the bounds of propriety and argue whether the first group of folks is as hot as they think they are.
It's the third group that gets to me. Those people volunteer that this debate is exactly why they do not attend military events—because they don't want anyone to judge them.
That makes me sad, I think. I'm not the biggest joiner in the world. I am as busy as anyone else. And I love being in my home. But there are reasons to get out there.
Last week at SpouseBuzz LIVE at MCAS Miramar, we had hundreds of women who spent their Saturday with us (get ready for their Top Ten lists starting next week) . Being with them reminded me that getting together with other people in our military community for a workshop or a ball or a picnic or a Hail and Farewell is a deeply good (if not always jolly) thing.
So here are my top ten reasons to come out to a military event:
1.Come out because I am dying to meet you. I already know everyone in my neighborhood. I've heard their stories. I'd rather sit down and listen to you.
2.Come out because I am sick of TV and I've got in a terrible habit of turning it on just because I feel tired. I cannot watch Inspector Lewis one more time. Light a fire under me, won't you?
3. Come out because no one is making you do it. The military doesn't control families any more. Let's do it to impress the kids with our glamorous lives that require the use of a ball gown.
4. Come out because I want to see the people my sailor spends his day with. I want to put names and faces together. I want to like you as much as he does.
5. Come out because when my husband and I get away from the kids we are totally different people. I like us as parents. I like us even more when we are just a couple.
6. Come out because I'm never going to judge you. I promise to envy your hot body. I promise to compliment your shoes. I promise to praise every red dress I see simply because I like red.
7. Come out because the leaves are starting to change and we could sit outside together and drink a glass of wine and wish we each had remembered a sweater. Nature is good for us.
8. Come out because we need to see other families who live the same lives we do. Make me feel like the separations and the weird division of labor and the crazy mid-PCS vacations are normal.
9. Come out because we both need a laugh.
10. Come out because (as Carson McCullers wrote) the heart is a lonely hunter. We belong to a society that gets a little more lonely every year. And when we get together the circle seems bigger, safer, friendlier. We need you.

Ooooh, yeah I like it. I think you're exactly right, there's not much to it but it's such a great showcase for his voice. Less is certainly more. I can see though that if you don't like his voice it might sounds a bit rubbish, but there's something really childlike about the electronic sounds that really appeals to me. I think it'll be love it or hate it.
- 3:43 am
- mellowlee said...
Thanks for sharing! I love it! His voice is amazing.
- 4:35 am
- Barbara Bruederlin said...
You could be right Kkees. I can think of a few people who will likely hate it, but I think it's brilliant (just like our Thom).
Any time, Mellowlee! Some of the other tracks like Analyse and Balck Swan are spectular as well.

- Barbara said...
I was shopping online at itunes with my Mum and I played Thom Yorkes new song. My Mums comment was "oh there is something wrong with the computer"
Me "No Mum that is just how Thom Yorke sounds."
- 6:41 am
- Barbara Bruederlin said...
hahaha Barbara W - okay, so you and your mom are not fans. (I doubted you would be.)
Which song was it by the way?
- 7:01 am
- Will said...
Well, first off - thanks for the quote. Makes me feel all important and stuff. Second of all ... no wait - now I'm really getting into the idea of him doing patriotic country tunes. Maybe Rick Rubin can produce it. Seems like you and I are on the same page here ... what the album was for me was, like you said, Thom Yorke filling a personal need, but it was also a personal need of mine. I think Radiohead's electronic leanings lead to some of my favorite songs and I really wanted to see that in full.
- 8:56 am
- Barbara Bruederlin said...
Will, you are always quotable! Rick Rubin would be the only one to produce that album, should it ever see the light of day.
I was more than glad to go along on the ride into Thom's mind, and I think it was a natural progression for him to make.
- 9:05 am
- Neil said...
I like some radio head... that song doesn't impress me.
I know. I must be crazy.
- 9:18 am
- mellowlee said...
btw, audio on blog is nifty. Is "bolt" free? I would love to be able to use audio on my blog occasionally!
- 9:57 am
- Barbara Bruederlin said...
pffft, you're not telling us anything new, Neil. We've always known you were crazy. And that's why we love you.
Nifty it is, Mellowlee. Yup, Bolt is free - Bolt.com - it's really great. You can do videos there too and your own recordings.
- 11:21 am
- Allison said...
I think I may have to visit Bolt, for audio stuff too.
My family had the same reaction to Thom's new cd, as Barbara W did. My brother, 'Its not playing, I'm just getting feedback.'
I told him that's the punishment he gets for saying the word narly, repeatedly. The inability to hear good music.
- 2:14 pm
- Barbara Bruederlin said...
hahaha Allison, you completely pOwnd your brother! You are the grooviest.
Did you like my seamless transition from netspeak to 60s lingo there?
Bolt is really great. I just use it as a tool to get audio on my Blogger site, but you can blog through Bolt as well.
- 3:38 pm
- She's Crafty said...
Do you remember Mansbridge "One on One" when he interviewed George?
He says that, "Radiohead could change everything"..."you can say what you want when you are that talented". It's a really good interview. Thom Yorke is genius.
I'm still waiting for the revolution, it COULD happen at any moment. LOL!
- 6:32 pm
- Barbara Bruederlin said...
You are preaching to the choir here, Sarah. And it's not merely talent with Thom and the rest of Radiohead, it's ingenuity. They think of ways of making music than have never been done for.
The revolution has begun. Don't expect to see Thom Yorke
organizing a fundraiser/awareness concert ala Bono and Geldof, though. He's surprisingly removed from the spotlight.
- 6:49 pm
- Barbara said...
I don't remember what the song was Barbara B. but this one you have reminds me of the background music from the games I used to play on my commodore 64. Like Kees said childlike... There is something very early 80s toy keyboard electronics to his music and something from star trek... can't put my finger on it. I don't mind the nostalgia of this song but what does he mean by it all?
- 7:12 pm
- Barbara Bruederlin said...
Commodore 64-like - that's pretty appropriate Barbara W. I think he did produce it all on the computer so that would fit. Maybe it WAS a Commodore-64.
Yorke's lyrics get more and more elusive all the time, but there is politics and subterfuge (on Harrowdown Hill), there is alienation, all the good Radiohead stuff.
- 7:31 pm
- Barbara said...
some schools of thought is that words are only filler for the music... To me words are key to some songs and filler for others...
- 9:04 pm
- Ben Heller said...
I haven't reviewed the album because I've only just bought it but I think this album contains one of Thom's best vocal performances yet.
- 4:20 am
- Barbara Bruederlin said...
I think you are pretty bang on there Barbara W. From the Weakerthans, for example, I expect clarity and literacy in their lyrics, from others such as Radiohead, it's more of a generalized mood. There're both good.
I think so too, Ben. Thom's voice is absolutely stellar and takes centre stage on this cd, not competing with instrumentation.
- 9:07 am
- phlegmfatale said...
OH, so THAT is Thom Yorke. He's hypomanic. My dr told me a month ago that I'm hypomanic, too. So I'm in good creative company?
- 6:56 pm
- Barbara Bruederlin said...
Really, Phlemfatale? I didn't know that, about either of you. (that's a form of bipolar disorder?)
Well that goes partway to explaining your amazing creativity, doesn't it? It doesn't seem to have been too much of a hinderance to you, although perhaps you hide it well.
- 8:13 pm
You have an outstanding good and well structured site. I enjoyed browsing through it » »

I'm so thankful to say that aside from a few downed trees, our neighborhood was largely spared from the wrath of Hurricane Sandy, and all our friends and family in the area are safe and sound. The photos and news coverage of the mass destruction have been just unreal, and my heart goes out to all who are still dealing with the aftermath.
On a happier note, Toby strut his stuff last weekend at a Halloween contest at our local Petco, and the little guy won! Without knowing a word of French! His costume consisted of:
- a white tee from the toddler section of Target. I snipped off the long sleeves, and stripified the body using painter's tape and black spray paint
- an awesome felt beret from Dog in a Fez, which Toby didn't try to yank off his head even once
- a tissue paper flower pin I DIYed using the same method as my birthday flower wall
Wishing you all a safe and happy Halloween! If you're planning on a spooky night in, here's a list of scary movies to rent.

When you're in a Japanese fabric store and you want fabric off a bolt, how do you ask for/buy it? I'm used to American fabric stores where I take the bolt down to the register and ask for however many yards I need. Is it the same in Japan, but just with meters?

Each week, we sit in worship with a couple hundred people whose names and lives we may not know that well. We are a friendly Church, but now we desire to become a Church of Friends.
Dinner for 8 began last year with small groups meeting for evenings of fun, food and conversation. We all had time to to laugh, get to know one another, share about our week and eat something nice together.
We are launching a new session for the coming summer months.
Here is how it works:
- Sign up, in the Welcome Center or via the form below, and wait to be assigned to a group
- Assigned groups meet once a month for three months.
- You and your dinner partners decide when and where to meet. Your DF8's can take place in your homes, local restaurants, the park, lake or wherever. You may choose to cook, order in, grill out, or have potluck.

|Student participants
We can offer you a stay in student dormitories ca 5 minutes walk from the University.
It is not clear, at the moment, what kind of dormitories will be available (there are university-run dorms as well as a privately run dormitory, we have used both in the past).
|Other participants
We can book the accommodation for you in quiet, nice bed-and-breakfast houses near the University (10 to 15 minutes walk to lecture room). We have been offering these B&Bs in the past twelve years and the participants were overall satisfied with their service and price. Most (but not all) houses are equipped with WiFi network.
Expected pricing (not yet confirmed for 2019) is 8250 CZK (approx. 305 EUR) per single room, including breakfast, and the price for a shared (twin) room is 11000 CZK (approx. 410 EUR) per room, i.e. roughly 5500 CZK per person. These rates are for the whole duration of the course (11 nights) - not per one night!
Please note that in both accommodation types we offer just a booking - you will have to pay for it yourself before departure from Ceske Budejovice and in the case of dormitory, you should also confirm your booking by sending them an e-mail message. The price for accommodation is not included in your course fee.
We are sorry we cannot offer you an accommodation in a hotel: if you need this, you must arrange for it through your travel agent. But you should be aware that you will inconvenience yourself in doing so, as most of the participants will live closely to each other and most outdoor leisure activites we offer will start from their accommodation places!

New Leadership
January is the time to hand over the reins of the San Jose Chapter of Rose Croix. I must confess that this is somewhat of a bittersweet experience. Over the past year, as Wise Master there have been good times and bad. The way in which we dealt with the challenges during the year was a real learning experience for me. I have tried to be particularly sensitive to the needs of our officers and brethren, but I have no doubt that there have been times in the past when I failed to fully appreciate all of the problems.
The new line of officers will face many challenges in the coming year. I feel certain that from the new positions that the officers will hold, all challenges will be meet and fully accomplished. The hallmark of a good leader is responsibility.
Thank you for honoring me with the position of Wise Master and for all the guidance and support that some many of you provided. It is indeed gratifying to have your friendship! Serving with you has been a great pleasure and I look forward to a continuing association. Let us work together to make the coming year a great success!
Hal Leister

Natural Marble has been considered the ultimate bath surfacing product since the days of the Roman Empire. The use of modern technology to both quarry and fabricate marble has made it available to the masses, not just the super rich in modern times. Natural marble is found in the mountainous regions of many countries in the world. Forged over the millennia by Mother Nature, this unique metamorphic rock we call natural marble's basic building block is calcite crystal giving it an extremely unique look and texture.

Top 10: Large vans for under £250 a month
Contract hire makes it easy and affordable to buy a new large van for sale. Not only will it give you a fixed monthly cost that makes budgeting a new van simple, but it also effectively remove the cost of the vehicle from the company's books by freeing up capital by lowering the company's outgoings due to the small initial outlay of money to start the deal.
Here are the top 10 vans for under £250 a month on contract hire. Or, to see the latest deals for yourself, visit: Honest John Vans For Sale
Please note, these offers are subject to terms and conditions and may be withdrawn at any time. They may also contain financial penalties for returning the van with damage or too many miles. All monthly payments will be subject to VAT.
Citroen Relay
The Relay was launched by Citroen back in 2006, but regular updates have kept it competitive, alongside its rivals from Ford and Fiat. Available in four lengths, three wheelbases and three heights, the largest Relays will provide 17 cubic metres of loadspace. There is a useful 1.4 metres of width between the rear wheel arches too for genuine practicality, while 2.0 BlueHDi engines qualify for Euro6 emissions standards and will carry payloads weighing up to 1885kg.

The Wuppertaler Schwebebahn (Wuppertal Suspension Railway) is a suspension railway in Wuppertal, Germany.
Its full name is Anlage einer elektrischen Hochbahn (Schwebebahn), System Eugen Langen.[2] ("Electric Elevated Railway (Suspension Railway) Installation, Eugen Langen System") It is the oldest electric elevated railway with hanging cars in the world and is a unique system.
Designed by Eugen Langen to sell to the city of Berlin,[3] the installation with elevated stations was built in Barmen, Elberfeld and Vohwinkel between 1897 and 1903; the first track opened in 1901. The Schwebebahn is still in use today as a normal means of local public transport, moving 25 million passengers annually (2008).[4]
The Schwebebahn runs along a route of 13.3 kilometres (8.3 mi), at a height of about 12 metres (39 ft) above the River Wupper between Oberbarmen and Sonnborner Straße (10 kilometres or 6.2 miles) and about 8 metres (26 ft) above the valley road between Sonnborner Straße and Vohwinkel (3.3 kilometres or 2.1 miles).[5][6] At one point the railway crosses the A46 motorway. The entire trip takes about 30 minutes.[6] The Schwebebahn operates within the VRR transport association and accepts tickets issued by the VRR companies.
Due to an accident in November 2018, the Schwebebahn was closed down for nearly nine months.[7] It re-opened on August 1, 2019.[8]
The Wuppertaler Schwebebahn had a forerunner: in 1824, Henry Robinson Palmer of Britain presented a railway system which differed from all previous constructions. It was a low single-rail suspension railway on which the carriages were drawn by horses. Friedrich Harkort, a Prussian industrial entrepreneur and politician, loved the idea. He saw big advantages for the transportation of coal to the early industrialised region in and around the Wupper valley. Harkort had his own steel mill in Elberfeld; he built a demonstration segment of the Palmer system and set it up in 1826 on the grounds of what is today the Wuppertal tax office. He tried to attract public attention to his railway plans.
On 9 September 1826, the town councillors of Elberfeld met to discuss the use of a "Palmer's Railway" from the Ruhr region, Hinsbeck or Langenberg, to the Wupper valley, Elberfeld, connecting Harkort's factories. Friedrich Harkort inspected the projected route with a surveyor and a member of the town council. The plans never went ahead because of protests from the transport branch[clarification needed] and owners of mills that were not on the routes.
In 1887 the cities of Elberfeld and Barmen formed a commission for the construction of an elevated railway or Hochbahn. In 1894 they chose the system of the engineer Eugen Langen of Cologne, and in 1896 the order was licensed by the City of Düsseldorf.[6][9] In 2003, the Rhine Heritage Office (Rheinisches Amt für Denkmalpflege des Landschaftsverbandes Rheinland or LVR) announced the discovery of an original section of the test route of the Schwebebahn.
Construction on the actual Schwebebahn began in 1898, overseen by the government's master builder, Wilhelm Feldmann. On 24 October 1900, Emperor Wilhelm II participated in a monorail trial run.[6]
In 1901 the railway came into operation. It opened in sections: the line from Kluse to Zoo/Stadion opened on 1 March, the line to the western terminus at Vohwinkel opened on 24 May, while the line to the eastern terminus at Oberbarmen did not open until 27 June 1903.[5] Around 19,200 tonnes (18,900 long tons; 21,200 short tons) of steel were used to produce the supporting frame and the stations.[6] The construction cost 16 million gold marks. The railway was closed owing to severe damage during World War II, but reopened as early as 1946.[5]

The Kaiserwagen
The Schwebebahn nowadays carries approximately 80,000[1] passengers through the city per weekday. Since 1997, the supporting frame has been largely modernized, and many stations have been reconstructed and brought up to date technically. Kluse station, at the theatre in Elberfeld, had been destroyed during the Second World War. This was also reconstructed during the modernization-phase. Work was planned to be completed in 2001; however a serious accident took place in 1999 which left five people dead and 47 injured. This, along with delivery problems, delayed completion. In recent years (2004), the cost of the reconstruction work has increased from €380 million to €480 million.[10]
On 15 December 2009, the Schwebebahn suspended its operations for safety concerns; several of the older support structures needed to be renewed, a process that was completed on 19 April 2010.[11]
In 2012, the Schwebebahn was closed for significant periods to upgrade the line. The closing times were 7 to 21 July, 6 August to 22 October and weekends in September (15/16) and November (10/11).[12] The modernization was completed and the line fully reopened on 19 August 2013.
Post 2015 trains replacement[edit]
On 10 November 2011, Wuppertaler Stadtwerke signed a contract with Vossloh Kiepe to supply a new fleet of Generation 15 or GTW 15 trains to gradually replace the ageing GTW 72 fleet. The 31 new articulated cars were assembled by Vossloh España in Valencia, Spain,[13] featuring a light blue livery and having cushioned seating, air conditioning, information displays, LED lights, improved disabled access and induction motors with energy recovery during braking.[14] The first new train was commissioned by WSW in 2015[15][16] and entered regular passenger service on 18 December 2016,[17] at which point the line's power supply voltage was raised from 600 to 750 V.
The GTW 72 stock was gradually withdrawn from service as the new trains were introduced, the last of which operated immediately prior to the line's shutdown in November 2018. WSW announced it would not scrap any of the GTW 72 stock, but instead offer 21 of the vehicles for sale and three for free, as long as they remained in the city of Wuppertal.[18][19]

The cars are suspended from a single rail built underneath a supporting steel frame. The cars hang on wheels which are driven by multiple electric motors operating at 750 volts DC, fed from an extra rail.[20]
Until August 2019, the Schwebebahn used block signalling like other light- and heavy rail systems. Signals with red, green and yellow lights, present at every station, signalled the driver if the next block, usually continuing until the next station, was free or not. The yellow aspect was mostly used to warn about construction work ahead, while a blinking red light warned about more severe problems.
Today, the Schwebebahn uses the European Train Control System, allowing for shorter distances between trains.
The supporting frame and tracks are made out of 486 pillars and bridgework sections. When the line was originally built, Anton Rieppel, head of MAN-Werk Gustavsburg, designed the structural system, which he patented.[21] At each end of the line is a servicing depot, including a loop of track to allow the trains to be turned around.[6]
The current fleet consists of 31 articulated cars.[6] The cars are 24 metres long and have 4 doors. One carriage can seat 48 with approximately 130 standing passengers.[5] The top speed is 60 kilometres per hour (37 mph) and the average speed is 27 km/h (17 mph).[6]
The Kaiserwagen (Emperor's car), the original train used by Emperor Wilhelm II during a test ride on 24 October 1900, is still operated on scheduled excursion services, special occasions and for charter events.[6]
- 15 January 1917
- A train rear-ended another train that had stopped unexpectedly in front of it between Oberbarmen and Wupperfeld, causing the trailing car of the stopped train to fall off the track. There were two minor injuries.[22] Subsequently, a safety device was developed to make derailments nearly impossible.[6]
- 21 July 1950
- The Althoff Circus organised a publicity stunt by putting a baby elephant on a train at Alter Markt station. As the elephant started to bump around during the ride, she fell out of the car and into the river Wupper.[23] The elephant, two journalists, and one passenger sustained minor injuries. After this jump, the elephant got the name Tuffi, meaning 'waterdive' in Italian. Both operator and circus director were fined after the incident.
- 11 September 1968
- A truck crashed into a pillar and caused a section of track to fall. There were no trains in the area at the time. This incident led to the use of concrete barriers around the pillar anchors.
- 25 March 1997
- A technical malfunction caused a rear-end collision in Oberbarmen station between a structure train and the Kaiserwagen. There were 14 injuries, but no derailment.
- 12 April 1999
- The line's only fatal incident occurred close to Robert-Daum-Platz station during maintenance work in the early morning hours of 12 April 1999. Workers had forgotten to remove a metal claw from the track on completion of scheduled night work. The first eastbound train of the day hit the claw at a speed of around 50 km/h (31 mph), derailed, and fell about 10 metres (33 ft) into the river Wupper, killing five passengers and injuring 47, some seriously. The salvage operation took three days and nights to complete. Eight weeks after the incident the Schwebebahn returned to operation. The cost of the damage was approximately 8 million marks.
- The judicial proceedings following the incident highlighted that the disaster was not caused by technical defects or system failure, but by negligence by workers having fallen behind in their schedule during the preceding night, and abandoning the work site hastily ten minutes before the train departed from the depot. Contributing to the circumstances was a lack of control of their activities by site supervisors.
- The Works Manager in charge of safety and the workers dealing with the steel claw at the time were acquitted of all charges by the District Court of Wuppertal. The site supervision personnel, having neglected their duties of control, were sentenced for involuntary manslaughter in 5 cases and bodily injury caused by negligence in 47 cases, but let off on probation with verdict 4 StR 289/01 dated 31 January 2002.[24]
- 5 August 2008
- A train collided with a crane truck making deliveries under the track, causing a 10-metre-long (33 ft) tear in the floor of one of the cars. The truck driver was seriously injured, and the train driver and some passengers were treated for shock.[25]
- 17 October 2013
- A section of power rail 100 metres (330 ft) long fell from the track onto Federal Route 7, damaging several cars parked there and forcing closure of the road. The city's fire service had to rescue 70 passengers from a stopped train. No one was injured.[26]
- November 2018
- A support beam and part of the line partially collapsed due to a loose busbar, shutting down the line up until August 2019.
In popular culture[edit]
The Schwebebahn is alluded to in Theodor Herzl's 1902 utopian novel Altneuland (The Old New Land). For Herzl, the Schwebebahn was the ideal form of urban transport, and he imagined a large monorail built in its style in Haifa.[27]
A sequence in Lyrical Nitrate, using film from between 1905 and 1915, features the Schwebebahn. Rüdiger Vogler and Yella Rottländer use images of the Schwebebahn in Wim Wenders's 1974 movie Alice in the Cities (Alice in den Städten). It also appears in the 1992 Dutch movie The Sunday Child (De Zondagsjongen) by Pieter Verhoeff, in Tom Tykwer's 2000 film The Princess and the Warrior (Der Krieger und die Kaiserin) and as a background and to a number of outdoor dance choreographies in another Wim Wenders film – 2011's Pina, and some dances are set inside the cars.
The Schwebebahn is both subject and title of video work by the Turner Prize-nominated artist Darren Almond. Produced in 1995, Schwebebahn is the first of three videos that constitute his Train Trilogy.
Other fiction[edit]
Some of the events in Le Feu de Wotan, a Belgian bande dessinée in the Yoko Tsuno series, take place in the Schwebebahn.
The denouement of the episode of the 1972 ITC TV series The Adventurer called "I'll Get There Sometime" takes place on the railway.

What that will do is give you dark hair a beautiful red tinge and it will look great this winter! Awsome!!
What I usually recommend to my client with either dark brown or chocolate brown hair is to add a touch of red to it.
This makes the hair a beautiful warm chocolate brown. Stick to colors that are the opposite of ash color, as these colors are cool tones which add a heated look to your hair.
Stick to the warm tones this winter!If you have blonde hair you can also use warm tones. Chocolate tones can look absolutely stunning mixed in with your blonde!
You will have a stunning contrast highlighted look that is really popular. Just be careful not to make it look stripy almost like the look of a zebra. If you are a platinum blonde and you feel like you want to change your color this winter, then what I usually do is take through a blush which is a strawberry blonde.
Autumn Hair Color Ideas
Check out this picture of my client Carole. Her normal hair color platinum blonde.
Now she wanted to get a warm textured look. So... what I did was add a few chocolate brown hair extentions to her natural hair.
As you can see it turned out great and her hair now has a beautiful warm tone.
She was really pleased with the results and loved her new hairstyle. Excuse the fuzzy picture, I took this with my mobile phone.
To get this effect you an also add copper foils to give your hair that warmth. This is a great option if you don´t want to put hair extensions in your hair.
If you have any further queries or would like some advice with regards to winter hair color ideas, please don´t hesitate to Contact Me.

Album Proofing Introduction
Album Proofing introduction
It's not compulsory to have your client's approval of an album design before ordering the product, but most photographers do. Workspace Album Proofing is a transparent and intuitive way for clients to communicate feedback and change requests, and, when they're ready, to approve the design so you can place the order.
You will do not need to have a Workspace subscription to use album proofing unless your album is designed in third-party software.
How did you order your album?
Album Proofing looks and works differently depending on how you order and how your album was designed. Read on for a brief overview, or click the links for more detail and video tutorials:
I used Queensberry Design Service to order my album
When you order an album with Queensberry Design Service, you'll need to communicate with the Queensberry designer to request changes, comment or approve the design. You'll probably also want your clients to review the design. To avoid confusion — and sometimes awkwardness! — you can send comments to the designer or the client, but not both. To add comments to your designer, you must be in the designer tab. To add comments to your client you must be in the client tab. The designer can't see your client's comments unless you share them, and before we make the album you must approve the design, not your client.
I used Workspace to design my album
When you design an album in Workspace you can send it directly to your client for review. Your client can then comment, suggest changes, or approve the design. If your client submits feedback you will be notified and, if necessary, you can make the required edits to the design and send a new version. Once they have approved the album, you can place the order in Workspace.
I used Photojunction to design my album
When you finish the initial draft of your client's album in Photojunction, select 'proof with Queensberry Workspace' under the Album menu. PJ will upload the proofing images to Workspace. You will then need to login to Workspace and share the proofing images with your client.
I used third-party software to design my album
Designed by you, in third-party software. When you've finished the initial draft of your album and wish to send it to your client for proofing, you will need to upload your JPG files to Workspace. Simply go to the "Albums" tab in Workspace. Click the "3rd party album proofing" button in the top right-hand corner. You will need a paid Workspace plan to use this feature.
What's new?
Updates in the latest release...
Updates to Comments: Comments are organised layout by layout, with an intuitive marker tool that lets you and your clients click anywhere on a page, and make comments or requests specific to that particular layout or image.
Receiving Feedback: Once you receive your client's feedback, it's easy to keep track of your changes, by marking comments as "completed" and/or replying to them before you send a new draft version.
Locked design: To avoid misunderstandings, versions are locked while you're waiting for your client's feedback (or vice versa).
Approving designs: Once your clients are ready to approve the design it's easy for them to click "approve", so can you place their album order.
Help for your clients: Send your clients a link to this article, which shows them how to use album proofing.

Aitzaz Hasan, 15, was with friends outside school when they spotted a man wearing a suicide vest.
Despite the pleas of his fellow students, he decided to confront and capture the bomber who then detonated his vest, his cousin told the BBC.
So that's the end for Aitzaz Hasan, at age 15.
The incident took place on Monday in Ibrahimzai, a Shia-dominated region of Hangu, in north-western Pakistan. There were almost 2,000 students in attendance at the time of the attack, media reports say.
"My cousin sacrificed his life saving his school and hundreds of students and school fellows," his cousin Mudassar Hassan Bangish told the BBC's Aleem Maqbool.
I'm having trouble seeing the screen clearly enough to compose this post.
His family have also spoken of Aitzaz's actions in Pakistan's Express Tribune newspaper.
"My son made his mother cry, but saved hundreds of mothers from crying for their children," Mujahid Ali, Aitzaz's father is quoted as saying.
Damn this screen.
On Twitter, users are paying tribute to Aitzaz using the hashtags #onemillionaitzaz and #AitzazBraveheart echoing the language used online around figures such as Malala and the Delhi rape victim, whose death galvanised Indian public opinion and prompted changes in rape laws there.
Former Pakistani ambassador to the US Sherry Rehman tweeted:"Hangu's shaheed Aitzaz Hasan is #Pakistan's pride. Give him a medal at least. Another young one with heartstopping courage #AitzazBraveheart."
Hangu is close to Pakistan's semi-autonomous tribal regions, which have a strong Taliban and al-Qaeda presence and the area is also known for sectarian violence against Shia Muslims.
Wouldn't it be nice if human beings would just stop killing each other over "sectarian" bullshit?

Media freedom and balance in today's world inundated with questionable news sources and biased reporting is something worthy of discussion in European lawmaking circles. Unfortunately, the European Parliament's LIBE committee's poor handling of the issue has hindered sensible debate on the subject, and the recent hearing on "media freedom and pluralism in the EU" is a perfect example.
Despite the fact the hearing was to be about media freedom in the EU, and the LIBE Committee presented a case study entitled "A comparative analysis of media freedom and pluralism in the EU Member States," the real substance was hardly that. First of all, the study looks at only seven Member States out of the 28. Out of those 7, Hungary and Poland receive the most attention, both getting about 20 pages, whereas the remaining five countries each get about half this length. The two "experts" named in the study are both Hungarians, and one of the two has no connection to the field of media research.
The study, in fact, contained a number of erroneous statements. It is not a "comparative analysis." Its scope is not "EU Member States," and most people would not call it a study. It is a political pamphlet.
From the beginning, the study makes a biased assumption. The current media situation in Hungary has been on the LIBE agenda multiple times, and despite the fact that many influential media outlets are critical of the current Hungarian government, LIBE remains determined to prove otherwise. Never mind the facts, the verdict in this case was written before the trial.
Hungary's most visited internet site (after search, Youtube and Facebook) is Index.hu – a news outlet that would never be considered pro-government. Hungary's most watched television channel is RTL Klub – a strongly opposition-leaning news program. Hungary's largest circulation non-tabloid daily is Magyar Nemzet, which is run by a publisher known for his unprintable rants about the current government. Radio is the only platform where the dominant news-politics outlet is not owned by opposition-leaning figures, simply because it is the public radio station.
The typical approach requires a couple of biased experts, who prepare a "study" that diminishes the number of opinions or perspectives from the other side of the debate. Here's an example from the text:
"Almost all major media outlets [in Hungary] are owned by domestic oligarchs who have informal links to the political and economic sector," the study states. Consider for a moment that conclusion. Put aside for a moment the very subjective "oligarch" label and ask the obvious question: In what country of the world can you find major media outlets that are owned by private business interests that do not have informal links to the political and economic sector?
What the study does then is carefully exclude the left-wing media owners and instead presents a rather selective list of right-wing media investments of the past years and labels those outlets as purveyors of fake news. According the left-wing majority on the LIBE Committee, media outlets (and their owners) that operate with a liberal editorial bias represent the norm. Media that deliver news and information from an alternative perspective, however, are a threat to the freedom of the press.
Here's another line, which makes even more apparent the political stance of the authors: "Hardly did the economic crisis appear to ease, when another striking event hit media freedom in the EU: in 2010, a significant political, and consequently, a legal and constitutional shift occurred in Hungary. Viktor Orbán, Prime Minister of Hungary used his supermajority in Parliament to launch a new model of illiberal democracy." For those few who missed it in 2010, Prime Minister Orbán won a supermajority in 2010, replacing the Socialists in a completely democratic election process and he won again in 2014, taking another two-thirds majority. Neither of these supermajorities have had any effect on Hungary's (even less on the EU's) media freedom – despite the LIBE Committee's concerted efforts to prove otherwise.
Why is LIBE so determined? It likely began as an effort by the political left to raise Hungary's domestic issues to an international platform, and specifically the Hungarian post-communist left's traditional eagerness to undermine their opponent with the help of a large, foreign force. Joining forces with them is an American financial speculator, who is often warmly received in the EU institutions as if he were a head of state, yet – unlike with heads of states – his meeting agendas remain secret. No surprise that both rapporteurs of the study come from the George Soros network, with previous and current, formal ties to Soros NGO's.
After drawing this distorted picture of the Hungarian media landscape, the study adds to the absurdity by concluding that the EU should introduce some oversight of the freedom of the press in Hungary.
You "are most certainly aware of the importance of preserving the good reputation and credibility of EU institutions. In our view, it is to be expected that LIBE, whose activity regarding democracy and rule-of- law in Hungary has got such an exposure and criticism in recent years, acts with due diligence and professionalism when it comes to commissioning studies, in order to avoid the suspicion that EU tax-payers' money are used to finance politically biased studies," wrote MEPs András Gyürk and József Szájer in a letter to the LIBE Chairman. The credibility of the Committee is at stake. I would assume that taxpayers of the EU would prefer that the LIBE Committee focus on real issues instead of political crusades.
The protection of media pluralism and freedom – the people's undeniable right to access valid news and information – is a debate worth having. It would require a team of more knowledgeable and competent experts than those at the LIBE today, but first and foremost, a political will to do so. If discussion on media freedom is continually exchanged for petty partisan politics, the discussion on real threats to liberty in today's world of fake news will remain arduous.

Fewer People Applied For Unemployment Benefits
By CHRISTOPHER S. RUGABER
WASHINGTON (AP) -- The number of people applying for unemployment benefits fell last week, though the decline isn't enough to signal improvement in the job market.
The Labor Department says weekly applications dropped 9,000 to a seasonally adjusted 423,000. The four-week average, a less volatile figure, rose slightly for the fifth straight week to 421,000.
Applications are at about the same level as they were four weeks ago. Applications typically need to fall below 375,000 to significantly lower the unemployment rate. They haven't been that low since February.
The upward trend in unemployment benefit applications could signal that employers are starting to lay off workers amid growing worries that the economy has weakened. Still, economists say the main problem is that there are few jobs for the 14 million people who are unemployed.

Guy Ritchie's presence at Westminster Abbey bemused some of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's other royal wedding guests. The film director may, however, soon be able to return the favour.
Mandrake hears that Steve Tisch, the executive producer of Ritchie's films Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels and Snatch, is to host a party for the couple when they visit California in July.
"It would be William and Catherine's introduction to Hollywood, and while it will be a relatively small event, around 30 couples, there will be some big names in the room," says my man in Tinseltown.
Tisch, who is the co-owner of the New York Giants American football team, is expected to host the event at his opulent Los Angeles home with other top studio moguls and actors among the guests
The Duke and Duchess's two-day trip to the Golden State will be the first time that the former Kate Middleton has been to America and her husband's first official visit.
I disclosed last month that Ritchie had first met Prince William through his friend William Duckworth-Chad, the estate agent who sold the director and his former wife, Madonna, Ashcombe House in Somerset.
David and Victoria Beckham, who live in LA, where the former England captain plays for LA Galaxy, will also be keen to hobnob with the couple. The Beckhams flew over for the royal wedding. A spokesman for the British Embassy in Washington says details of the visit are still being worked out.

Sometimes our chiropractors will perform adjustments of the spine by delivering a quick, highly accurate thrust using his hands. Other times a slow constant pressure is used. But just as lasers have replaced scalpels in some surgeries, advanced technology has become available to chiropractors to assist in delivering chiropractic adjustments.
Instrument assisted adjustments are high-tech. There is no popping or cracking with these adjustments , but rather very precise and targeted adjustments designed to specifically care for just the right areas.
Patients benefit without risk, the results are reliable and reproducible and most importantly gentle and comfortable. The instruments use a precise oscillating percussion action, the amount of pressure can be precisely controlled and adjusted for your comfort. These instruments are specifically tuned to the natural frequency of the body that joints, muscles and nerves respond to, optimizing results for patients.
Years of research have gone into the development of these instruments to create gentle chiropractic adjustments that are safe and effective for patients of all ages.
Instrument assisted adjustments feel like a light tapping sensation on the area that is being treated. In most cases the treatment is painless and after the adjustment many patients feel relief of pain and improved mobility. Others report a sense of well-being or a soothing calm feeling. Of course, results vary from case to case and chronic conditions, inflammation or muscle spasms may delay these positive effects.

Best Travel Apps: New York City!
There's nothing quite like hitting the open road, or the open skies to be more precise, and embarking on a trip to the city of your dreams. The novelty and excitement of being in a new and unfamiliar place is definitely an unbeatable adrenaline rush, full of positive emotions and experiences. The question is: are you well-prepared for your upcoming trip?
To help you feel at home while travelling, we've come up with a thorough list of must-have Android travel apps that will hopefully make your stay even more memorable and comfortable. With the help of our hand-picked apps, you and your Android smartphone will blend in like a local in any city. Whether it's restaurants, places to go out, exhibitions or practical tips on how to survive - these apps will cover the hidden gems and secrets of your favorite metropolis.
To start things off, we're heading to the most global city of the all: New York!
Food is a huge part of New York. In fact, there are so many good eats hidden around the city that it's impossible to know them all. Zagat has become the ultimate go-to-guide for all things gastronomical for both locals and tourists alike, with restaurants trembling in fear before the all-mighty reviews of Zagat's team of food connoisseurs. Armed with the Zagat, you'll be able to discover exquisite deliciousness at every corner categorized by price, cuisine, location and user ratings. Whether it's the best New York bagels or that amazing hole-in-the-wall Thai joint, chances are you'll find a review of it on Zagat with Google Map directions on how to get there. You can even catch a glimpse of the dishes with photos of dishes that are on the menu. Every restaurant is put under the microscope and ranked based on Zagat's 30 point scale. While some of the top-rated places may lie outside of your budget, you're guaranteed to find some mouth-watering ethnic food in the 20 point range. Oh and for those of you feeling lucky: check out Zagat's custom Android widget that selects a restaurant at random in your proximity for you to try. So chow away now, shall we? Should New York City charm you enough to stay their permanently, be prepared to pay $24.99 a month for a Zagat subscription. For anyone that's just visiting, the first month's free trial should be more than enough.
As one of the world's art meccas, any visit to New York isn't complete with a good dose of Chelsea galleries, Brooklyn art openings and a tasting of some of the best museums on the face of the planet. NY Art Beat is your new best friend when it comes to diving head-first into New York's vibrant art scene. Encompassing a wide range of art happenings, the app includes detailed information and reviews of virtually art event in the city classified by neighborhood and/or genre. Even the most picky art aficionados will be able to find something to match their aesthetic palette. And if you're just looking to stop in on a couple of art openings for a quick glass of wine and a serving of snacks (for art's sake, of course), NY Art Beat boasts an exhaustive lists of art viewings from photography to installations to Native Alaskan pottery.
For anyone in the big city for the first time: New York's subway system is pure madness. While New Yorkers somehow manage to navigate the convoluted and disorienting public transit system, most visitors are left staring at their maps in disarray. NYCMate is your loyal app companion that is designed to guide you through the tangled web of subways, buses and commuter trains. Packed with a detailed map of the subway system and train schedule (yes, this mayhem of a city runs on a schedule), show you where the closest station is located and when your next train arrives. And once you're above ground again, NYCMate comes with detailed neighborhood maps for the surroundings of every single subway stop. Best of all, since it's impossible to catch a signal underground in NY (think 9/11), all the data is stored offline on your SD card. New York wouldn't be New York if it weren't for the constant subway repairs and breakdowns, but this app keeps you notified of any disturbances ahead of time.
: No one knows New York better than the New Yorker - the city's cultural and intellectual icon, a shining beacon of wonderful American journalism and satire. Loved and read by a wide spectrum of New York socialites, academics, intellectuals, liberal arts students and retirees from the Upper West Side, the New Yorker is also a great tool for discovering the city for people interested in more than just a banale tour of the sights. Like the magazine, the app is a real work of art with the entire design composed of lovable sketches by the publication's acclaimed staff of cartoonists. Plays, concerts, movies, exhibitions, restaurants, public lectures - all hand-picked by staff critics, among which are several renowned American writers and novelists. Follow the tips of America's creative minds, as they guide you around their favorite spots in the city. And to wrap things up, the app even comes with a couple of audio guides to make your New Yorker experience complete. Chique, sophisticated and smart just like the city it embodies.
If you're visiting New York from abroad, chances are you won't be surfing the web with your Android smartphone in the States due to your carrier's exuberant roaming rates. So instead of blindly stumbling about Manhattan in search of an unlocked wireless connection, there's New York Free WiFi - a comprehensive guide to all the free hotspots in the city. Finding a place where you can enjoy a latte and/or bagel while going though your emails couldn't be easier as the app provides with a catalog of free WiFi access points, categorized by subway station and zip-code. Every wireless connection comes with a detailed description about the location, signal strength and whether power outlets are available. The app may help you stay connected and save a lot of money, but it sure ain't free. Then again, 99 cents is nothing when compared to the joy of uploading pictures to New York as you explore the city, a hot dog and smartphone in hand.
Just because it's touristy doesn't mean it isn't worth seeing, right? The NYC Audio Guide for Android hits all of the must-see places and symbols of New York that all of the New Yorkers love to hate and every visitor wants to see. Packed with around 30 of the city's most popular sights, NYC Audio guides you on a path from the Statue of Liberty all the way to Central Park with time for a short picture opp on Times Square. Stare up at the Empire State Building and let the app guide you through the iconic New York we know so well from the movies. Thankfully, the app downloads all the audio and visual data to your phone allowing you to enjoy the tour guide without an Internet connection. Clocking in at exactly 90 minutes, this app gives you enough information to get a feel of the city without tiring you out.
Hopefully, this list will give you an idea of what to do when you set your foot in New York City. Feel free to share your travel experiences and recommendations for worthy New York applications in the comments!

Surgical incision closure market is expected to register significant growth over the forecast period owing to increasing investment in research and development, reduced level of trauma along with reducing risks of infection, and increasing demand to shorten length of hospital stay. Appropriate incision closure during surgery is crucial to maintain integrity of tissues and regain normal functions. Primary objective during a surgery is to achieve hemostasis and to seal the incision both internally and externally. Any failure to seal the incisions perfectly leads to severe medical conditions such as infection and critical scarring. Introduction of technologically advanced incision closure products is additionally expected to propel growth of this market.
Surgical incision and closure market is segmented on three different bases such as type, application and products. On the basis of type market is divided into advanced wound care market and advanced wound closure market. Burns, ulcers and surgical wounds are the market types based on application. Sutures, tissue sealants and staplers are the three types on the basis of products. Sutures possess one of the highest market share and are expected to continue the dominance owing to the expansive product development efforts. For instance, recently developed barbed suture technology is designed to face challenging procedures such as endoscopic surgeries. Tissue sealants on the other hand is gaining market share steadily. Their demand is specially rising in case of cosmetic and minimally invasive surgeries. Surgical staplers continue to generate majority of sales. They have applications in many gynecologic, thoracic, and pediatric procedures but bariatric and emphysema market accounts for major share.
North America is expected to have the largest share due to higher consumer base of aesthetic surgeries, spinal fusion, and rising numbers of hip and knee replacement surgeries. Asia Pacific is expected to register a lucrative growth owing to improvement in healthcare infrastructure, rising spending in healthcare segment, new establishments of healthcare & diagnostic centers, and increased access to healthcare services.
Major players of the market are BTG plc, Cryolife, 3M healthcare, Ethicon, Covidien Plc., Smith and Nephew, Baxter International, Genzyme Biosurgery, Axya medical, Henkel Loctite Corporation and Tyco healthcare.

Canonical is showing here at CES Ubuntu TV: a version of its Linux OS aimed at televisions (as the sharper among you may have spotted from the name). Ubuntu TV is still in beta – a spokesman told us it was really 'more of an alpha' – but it could be available on retail products within the next 12 months.
Canonical is being unsportingly cagey with the details of which OEMs it's working with, but told us to expect Ubuntu TV sets in the UK during 2012. Whether Ubuntu TV sets will be the joined up solution that gains wider success than either Google TV or Apple TV remains to be seen, but Ubuntu TV is an indisputably exciting departure from our favourite Linux vendor. See all our CES 2012 stories.
Canonical is calling Ubuntu TV "TV for human beings". The principle is that consumers will be able to access and interact with content from a multitude of sources, all from one intuitive interface. Intriguingly, they'll also be able to enjoy what Canonical is calling the 'second screen experience': additional content pulled from the web and social media that enhances the viewing experience. Such content is widely available these days for all major TV shows and movies, and if no-one in your house watches TV with one eye on a smartphone screen, we are living very different lives.
Canonical says it will be setting up its own TV content services to compete with Apple and Google. Ubuntu TV has a built-in box office that allows viewers to browse and buy the latest movies and TV shows online. Canonical was unwilling to tell us which content providers it has deals with, which will be as crucial to the whole deal as the calibre of OEMs it can attract. Watch this space.
The build of Ubuntu TV we saw today will look familiar to Ubuntu users, particularly those au fait with Ubuntu One. Given that the software is so early in development it's impossible to make any hard judgments on the interface, but the build we saw was typically intuitive and attractive. If TV and set-top box manufacturers climb on board with Ubuntu TV it's likely that they will wish to add their own branding and sheen to the final consumer products anyway.
Is Ubuntu TV going to be hit? From this far out it is impossible to say. It depends entirely on the quality of media providers and hardware manufacturers. But the principle of being able to access all media from a simple interface is a great one. It will be interesting to see how Canonical goes with this.
