New Zealand's Southern Alps - a series of mountain chains extending the length of the South Island and rising to 2000m (6562 feet) - are more extensive than the Swiss, French and Austrian Alps combined.
Dozens of different ski areas and winter sports resorts are located in this immense and spectacular mountain region. Each area has its own distinctive character - some specialising in family holidays, others definitely better suited to the more adventurous skier.
Queenstown is New Zealand's best known winter holiday destination. This major tourist town - magnificently sited on Lake Wakatipu at the foot of The Remarkables mountains - is filled with designer stores, restaurants, nightclubs and cafés that vibrate adventure, activity and enthusiasm.
When Queenstown isn't focusing on winter activities, it's the capital of adventure tourism. The famous bungy jump was born there and, aside from skiing and snowboarding, there is a myriad of activities to occupy visitors such as jet boats, motorbikes, fine Central Otago wines, horse riding, mountain climbing, hiking, white-water rafting and other bungy-inspired thrills.
Queenstown's closest skifields are Coronet Peak and The Remarkables:
An hour's drive from Queenstown, the little town of Wanaka sits on the shores of Lake Wanaka. Sometimes described as 'the New Zealander's Queenstown', Wanaka is less commercial, smaller and quieter though there are still plenty of nice restaurants and bars.
Wanaka's two nearby skifields are at Cardrona and Treble Cone:
Mount Hutt and the 'club fields'
Further north near Christchuch, the Mount Hutt ski area enjoys the longest snow season. First to open each winter, it's popular with locals who gather at the town of Methven when they're not skiing.
Mount Dobson, in the Mt Cook Mackenzie region, is a family-owned
ski-field that caters for all levels of skiers. The 400ha skiable
terrain ranges from the largest learning slope in southern New Zealand
to challenging off-piste powder runs. Mt Dobson is near the small rural
town of Fairlie, and 40 minutes from Lake Tekapo.
Around Mount Hutt and Christchurch, and all the way down to Queenstown are the smaller 'club fields'. These private patches of mountain are managed by individual ski clubs but open to the public. Some club skifields, such as Ohau and Temple Basin, have good facilities but generally these ski areas are for more adventurous sports enthusiasts.
Snow conditions and terrain vary greatly, and there are some great spots off-the-beaten track:
The best way to get a taste of the back country is with a guide. Some New Zealand tour operators cater to this market, and options for going off-piste increase each season.
Getting there by helicopter is a popular choice. This can involve anything from one ride and one run down a spectacular, untouched slope to a luxury champagne lunch during a day of uncrowded bliss. (Note that the human-triggered avalanche risk can be high with back country skiing - consult local guides if going alone and always take emergency locator equipment.)
Snow-cat (snow caterpillar) skiing is an innovation offered at Mount Potts, one of the New Zealand's highest skifields. Snow-cats, often used for grooming the pistes, are tractors designed to travel over snow and up steep gradients. At Mount Potts, where up to 14 guests get an area the size of Mount Hutt all to themselves, a specially adapted snow-cat is used like a chair lift, taking clients to the top of a slope and picking them up again at the bottom.
Tongariro National Park extends across much of the central North Island volcanic plateau - a surreal landscape of colourful sunsets, ever-changing cloud formations and vast black volcanic desert sands inhabited by low scrubby vegetation. It's here that Kiwi film director chose to set the scene for the dramatic battle of Mordo in Lord of the Rings.
Three active volcanoes - Ruapehu, Tongariro and Ngauruhoe - like a giant set of triplets rise high above this harsh environment. Snow dusted in winter, Mount Ruapehu is the location for the skifields of Turoa and Whakapapa.
Both ski areas offer similar terrain and facilities. There's a good mix for all abilities, from the almost-flat field that is Happy Valley for beginners to the trickier gullies accessed by the highest T-bars. For the more intrepid, there's the opportunity to hike up to the active crater lake on top of the mountain.
Two small villages - one on each side of the mountain - and a town further away cater to the skifields with pubs, clubs, restaurants and accommodation:

Four years ago Ellis Holtom, of Stratford-upon-Avon, was born with half a working heart. Later, the Herald featured his condition as a tribute to the work of Birmingham Children's Hospital where he was treated. Now, to mark Congenital Heart Defect Week his mum, Vicki, updates his story. . .
ALL 326 local planning authorities in England, councils like Stratford-on-Avon District, need a local plan. The core strategy is a component of that local plan. It contains all the local district wide policies that need to be considered when processing planning applications. New development needs to satisfy local needs, helping to realise the hopes and ambitions of its communities and protect them from situations they fear. New homes and places to work should provide then with a healthy lifestyle, a pleasant place to live, good recreational facilities and above all the infrastructure that enhances their quality of life. The buzzword to describe this is 'sustainable'.
THE poor are paying more than they should be for their energy, according to damning new evidence from Stratford-upon-Avon's Citizens Advice Bureau. Prepayment meters (PPMs) are costing users in fuel poverty a "disproportionate amount" for what little gas and electricity they can afford, the bureau has found. There are around 7.2 million people on prepayment meters in the UK and several thousand in the district of Stratford. Despite Stratford's reputation as an affluent area, the bureau is being forced to come to the aid of more and more people living in fuel poverty on an increasingly regular basis.
AN OFFICIAL paving stone commemorating Stratford-upon-Avon's forgotten war hero for the 100th anniversary of the First World War will be placed in the town, the government has confirmed. Rex Warneford – the first man to single-handedly shoot down a zeppelin - was ignored in the government's initial plans to recognise Victoria Cross winners because he was born abroad in India. The Herald launched a campaign, together with King Edward VI school, where Rex lived and studied for five years, to get the fighter pilot recognised.
A HIGH street convenience store in Alcester has been named the most popular Asian community shop in the UK.
Nasta Khera's shop, Simply Fresh, was presented with the Spirit of the Community award at the Asian Traders Awards, held in London last week.
The award recognises the relationship between the shop and the townspeople and all the fundraising efforts Mr Khera and his staff undertake for local organisations.
This year alone Simply Fresh raised £350 for Alcester in Bloom, they have sponsored the Alcester Town FC U16s team, as well as raising money for the court leet.
They are currently giving away free samosas outside their shop on High Street every evening, with all donations going toward the Alcester Bunting and Lighting group.
Mr Khera said: "We do these sort of things quite regularly, I am very proud of my shop and my town."
Mr Khera, aged 42, and his wife Aman, 30, have lived in Alcester for seven years, and their shop with traditional wooden beams coupled with
sparkling clean floors has proved a hit with locals.
Town councillor Mike Gittus, said: "Shops like this ensure a future for the high street, with their friendly personal service."

I'm not terribly concerned with the battery life. Unless it's a catastrophic failure, most devices like this will begin to dim, like old-school calculators. So I should have some warning to know I'd need to get another one. (this assumes it's good for 7 years, and I'm still playing, naturally)

Make sure your camera memory card is empty when you go to see these spectacular glaciers, gorges, lakes, and mountains. Driving through a giant gorge formed millions of years ago by a retreating glacier, you arrive at Lagunas de Llanganuco. The crystalline waters shine a luminescent turquoise in the sunlight; in the shade they're a forbidding inky black. Waterfalls of glacial melt snake their way down the gorge's flanks, falling lightly into the lake. There are many quenual
trees (also known as the paper-bark tree) surrounding the lakes. Up above, you'll see treeless alpine meadows and the hanging glaciers of the surrounding mountains. At the lower lake, called Lago Chinancocha, you can hire a rowboat (S/3 per person) to take you to the center of the lake. A few trailside signs teach you about local flora and fauna. The easiest way to get here is with an arranged tour from Huaraz (about S/30 plus entrance fee), though if you are going on the Santa Cruz trek you will probably start here. The tours stop here and at many other spots on the Callejón de Huaylas, finishing in Caraz.

Bismarck police are looking for a man after he entered and fled a home in south Bismarck late last night.
Police say a woman living in the 200 block of East Reno Ave. heard footsteps in her house and when she went to investigate, she was face to face with a skinny white male 30 to 40 years old, 5'10" tall 170 to 200 pounds wearing a red t-shirt, jeans and white shoes.
The man pushed the woman and took off. There was no forced entry and nothing missing from the home.

Boasting over 13 megapixels, a 3x zoom, and a titanium scratch resistant body, Sony's newest camera, the DSC-W300, is a serious contender in the heavy weight division. Included in the package is an ultra sensitive image sensor at up to 6400 ISO (I think my Canon does 1600 max), 2.7″ LCD, intelligent scene recognizer, smile shutter (the camera will wait until everyone smiles), and a whole lot more. Measures 3.7 x 2.3 x 1.1in so it's not the slimmest of all compacts, but the trade off in pixels and features are there.
Should be available here in the next few months for $350.

1. In a 4- to 6-quart slow cooker, combine the beans, sausage, onion, celery, and thyme. Add the broth and stir to combine.
2. Cover and cook until the beans are tender, on low for 7 to 8 hours or on high for 4 to 5 hours (this will shorten total cooking time).
3. Twenty minutes before serving, discard the thyme stems, add the collard greens, cover, and cook until the greens are tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Add the vinegar and ½ teaspoon each salt and pepper.
4. Drizzle with the olive oil and serve with the bread sticks.

text: The German artist Georg Baselitz (b. 1938, Saxony), belongs to a small group of artists who developed a new figurative art in the sixties and seventies - notably a tiny galaxy of Neo-Expressionist German artists in the Seventies, sometimes known as "Neue Wilden", who focused on deformation, the force of matter and the vibrancy of colours. They were on the front line of the debate on the relations among art, society and history, at the same time confronting the difficult question of what it means to be a German artist in the wake of National Socialism and the Holocaust.

A combination of high water levels and heavy rain caused a massive sinkhole to open up on Highway 11 North Bay, Ontario early Friday morning.
The Ontario Provincial Police reported the highway was reopened, in both directions, by around 5:30 p.m. on Saturday.
The Ministry of Transportation blamed the sinkhole on "a large culvert failure."
A second sinkhole was discovered on Highway 64, forcing a closure that lasted for several hours. The highway was re-opened by around 10 a.m.
The region was inundated with more than 30 mm of rain Thursday, prompting officials to close the Kinsmen and Kate Pace Way trail system following incidents of localized flooding.
Ontario's Muskoka region has seen significant flooding as well.
On Friday, the communities of Huntsville and Bracebridge declared emergencies after more than 50 mm of rain overwhelmed waterways, leading to costly damages.

ORLANDO – The old comedian Steve Allen once said, "I used to be a heavy gambler. But now I just make mental bets. That's how I lost my mind."
He easily could have been talking about bowl games. As inexact sciences go, they fit somewhere between the "wheel of fortune" and "pick a number between one and 10."
A college team's best players often are upperclassmen who already have one foot and an entire head out the door. Some get lost in the vacation atmosphere of bowl week. Some can't transition back from holiday break. Others just look, play and act like they would rather not be there. It's why we are left with results like: Central Florida 10, Georgia Holograms 6 in the Liberty Bowl.
For Georgia's sake, this next bowl needs to be different.
This isn't some grand declaration that the Bulldogs' program will be defined by whether or not they defeat Nebraska in the Capital One Bowl.

If trains are going to move goods from the Port of Oakland to the Crows Landing Air Facility, it will take cooperation from railroads, the port and a good number of agencies.
A report by the group that hopes to develop the former naval airfield outlines how a new rail system might work, while listing as much as $294 million in projects needed to route trains from the port to the air facility.
"We're going to be pioneers," said D.J. Smith of California Strategies, which compiled the report for PCCP West Park, the development group negotiating with Stanislaus County to turn the airfield into a 4,800-acre industrial park.
Commuter train interested
The report indicates the Altamont Commuter Express rail service may be involved in dispatching and maintenance for a rail corridor used by West Park.
Officials with ACE, which offers commuter transport between Stockton and San Jose, are looking into operating a line stretching from the Altamont Pass into the San Joaquin Valley.
ACE officials have talked with several potential short-haul users, including the would-be developers of the Crows Landing airfield, about using the corridor. The network of parties, known as the Northern California Trade Coalition, hopes to get state infrastructure bond money to make the corridor a reality.
Short-haul rail trains may be a good fit for an ACE-operated rail line, explained Stacey Mortensen, ACE executive director.
"I'm glad people are talking," she said.
The California Strategies rail report gives some details about how that relationship might work, describing an Altamont Corridor Trade Service that would oversee train service and the transport of goods between Oakland and Crows Landing.
However, Smith said the report's descriptions are still preliminary.
Other aspects of the report describe specifics of an "inland port" at the former airbase. The air facility's intermodal area would provide parking on a former runway for about 950 chassis and would receive containers from the Port of Oakland. Containers filled with farm goods and other cargo would then be shipped back to the port by train.
Busy schedule
Despite brochures that have said only six trains per day would use the proposed PCCP West Park industrial park at buildout, the report said more trains could be added if demand persisted during a possible "fourth phase" of the project, possibly around 2025.
If that happened, developers would build a $30 million "grade separation," likely an underpass, at Highway 33 and Las Palmas Avenue in Patterson. Another $20 million grade separation would be built south of Marshall Road on Highway 33, where trains would enter the inland port.
Up until that point, one train would head from the port to the air facility and back each day starting in 2011, requiring a link between Union Pacific and California Northern railroad tracks east of Tracy. Each 50-car train would take two minutes to cross each railroad crossing.
Patterson could be named a quiet zone, according to the rail report — an area in which trains would be required to refrain from using a whistle, either all the time or just at night.
Smith said trains in quiet zones in some areas must signal their presence by using a strobe light.
Two loading tracks and four storage tracks would be added at the inland port once demand built enough for three trains, expected in 2016, according to the report. Then, improvements to railroad crossings between the Tracy area and Crows Landing likely would be made in 2021, when West Park expects six trains to use the inland port. Roads at all 29 public rail crossings would be improved.
The study gave a list of intersections that would receive crossing arms at that time. In Patterson, M Street, Olive Avenue and Las Palmas Avenue all would have gates with crossing arms. The intersection of E Street and Highway 33, meanwhile, would be blocked.
Some rural intersections, including Zacharias Road and Highway 33, where some city officials have discussed creating a new thoroughfare, were described as "passive" crossings that might not have a crossing bar.
Future benefits
The report touted the project's advantages for air quality, noting that the use of train transport would take as many 2,700 trucks off the road by 2021 and that electric vehicles would be used at the industrial park. The project also would help alleviate traffic congestion at the Port of Oakland, it said.
The report included results of a survey of Central Valley shippers that potentially could use the inland port. Though many liked the idea of rail, there was also skepticism about rail's cost and efficiency, according to the report.
Port of Oakland officials say they favor the project and other proposed short-haul rail projects in Fresno, Sacramento, Stockton and Shafter. However, those projects only will be viable once long-haul challenges are addressed in places such as the Tehachapi Pass and Donner Summit, spokeswoman Marilyn Sandifur said.
Smith acknowledged the rail component of West Park's project may prompt skepticism among some, but he also noted trains were used for shipping long before the use of trucks.
"It's kind of an old story coming back, really," Smith said.To reach Jonathan Partridge at the Irrigator, call 892-6187 or e-mail him at firstname.lastname@example.com.

If there is one thing that works in the world of advocacy, it is a ratings table that shows how one state, metropolitan area, or utility compares to its peers. The latest report, U.S. Clean Tech Leadership Index, from Clean Edge does just that.
The fifth annual U.S. Clean Tech Leadership Index finds that California, Massachusetts, Oregon, Colorado, and New York lead the way among states in solar and electric vehicle adoption, with smart climate policies and clean energy financing driving the clean tech leadership index growth.
Clean energy is becoming a popular choice for mainstream America with 11 states now generating more than ten percent of their electricity from non-hydro renewable sources, according to the Clean Edge report. As seen in the graph below, Iowa leads the way in utility-scale wind, solar, and geothermal electricity generation. Read More

Nanny State Wins: Light Bulb Ban Repeal Fails in House
July 18, 2011 | Filed Under Budget, Business, Climate Change, Congress, Constitution, Democrats/Leftists, Economy/Finances, Energy, Environment, EPA, GOP, Government, House of Representatives, Liberals, Nanny State, Republicans, Warner Todd Huston | Comments Off
-By Warner Todd Huston
If the House Republicans can't even get rid of one of the most odious examples of nanny statism in the age of Obama, what exactly are they worth? On Tuesday, Rep. Joe Barton (R, Texas) failed in his effort to repeal the incandescent light bulb ban idiotically signed into law by Nanny G.W. Bush.
Barton failed with his The Better Use of Light Bulbs (BULB) Act (HR 2417)on a 233-193 vote. A two-thirds majority was needed for passage.
Only five Democrats crossed ideological lines to vote in favor of the bill to repeal the idiotic light bulb ban. Worse, ten Republicans joined the Democrats.
The bill would have repealed a portion of the 2007 energy law that requires a 30 percent increase in efficiency in light bulbs. This, its supporters claim, makes it no "ban" of light bulbs.
The fact is, though, the incandescent-style bulb cannot be improved 30 percent and that means the bulbs would become illegal. It is a defacto ban whether the law states it directly or not. This sort of nanny statism is what offends anyone who is a true American.
In fact, this little bill is the best example of the sort of nanny statism that freedom-loving Americans are incensed by. The repeal should have easily been passed but the GOP could not muster the votes to do it and, worse, didn't even hold their own caucus in line.
The ten Republicans that have to answer for their votes are as follows:
- Charlie Bass, New Hampshire
- Brian Brillbray, California
- Scott Garrett, New Jersey
- Morgan Griffith, Virginia
- Richard Hanna, New York
- Tim Huelskamp, Kansas
- Tom Reed, New York
- Dave Reichert, West Virginia
- Scott Rigell, Virginia
- Glenn Thompson, Pennsylvania

Well you guys, salsa is not my thing, so I don't usually post this kind of music, but this guy, Gilberto Santa Rosa, is supposedly pretty famous in the Latin world, and he has just recorded this song that was written by my ex-husband, Pepín Rivero. This is the biggest break Pepín has had so far as a songwriter, and it's not even anywhere near his best work. I'm so proud of him, so if you're into salsa, please take a listen, and "like" it on YouTube if you're so inclined. Here's a playlist of demo recordings of a few more of Pepín's songs (better ones, if you ask me).
30 day music challenge
Day 28: A song by an artist with a voice that you love.
You thought it'd be Brandon Boyd, didn't you? Well, of course I love him too, but if we're talking strictly voices I have to go with Alejandro Sanz, a Spanish singer whose music was introduced to me by my Cuban guitarist ex-husband. I'm not that into Latin pop, but this song (Corazón Partio) has "hit" written all over it, and if you've got any amount of Spanish-speaking blood in you, you probably know it by heart. Maybe it's because I don't understand all the lyrics, but I just think this guy has the sexiest voice ever. And he's not too hard on the eyes either.
Palo! - Crescencio
If you like Latin music, specifically Afro-Cuban funk, here's the latest video by Palo!, starring my ex-husband's cousin, Leslie Cartaya, and some other friends.
Juan Luis Guerra y 440 - Amapola
Spanish honey.
Cuando Se Fue
Taking a break from Incubus for a few minutes to share another song written by my ex-husband, recorded the last time he visited his family in Cuba. The singer is his friend Raquelita, who also sings in this other video.
Cuando Pienso En Ti (When I Think of You)
…and speaking of Latin music, here's a pretty song written by my Cuban ex-husband, performed by his cousin Leslie, the lead singer of Palo.
This is slightly off-topic, but if you like Latin music, check out this awesome Afro-Cuban funk band called Palo!, co-founded by my cousin's brother-in-law and my ex-husband's cousin. Yes, it's a very small world.

Faith Middleton Show: A Look At The Effects Of Stress On The Body And Our Emotions
Vigorous studies and research show what super stress does to human health.
Ever since the earliest human ran from T-Rex, we have known stress. In the modern age we don't have T-Rex, we have other worries - mortgages, relationships, aging relatives, dying friends, overly demanding workplaces, or no workplace at all. I'm sure you could add to the list.
The modern age has also brought us the ability, through rigorous studies and research, to know what super stress does to human health.
On this show we talk to two people who understand the effects of stress. We start with one of the leaders in the field, a guest before on our show, Dr. Carolyn Mazure. She is director of women's health research at Yale, where she is Professor of psychiatry and psychology and associate dean for faculty affairs. She wrote a book called, Does Stress Cause Psychiatric Illness?
Also, Thea Singer, author of Stress Less. Singer explores what the new science of stress can tell us about how to turn back the cellular clock.

Trendy Entertainment adds MOBA mode to upcoming tower defence sequel Dungeon Defenders 2
James Gilmour
Dungeon Defenders 2
Trendy Entertainment
Android, iPhone, iPad
RPG, Strategy
Trendy Entertainment has revealed that it is working on
Dungeon Defenders 2
for iOS and Android.
In this sequel to the multi-platform tower defence RPG title
Dungeon Defenders
, Trendy will build on the first game's multiplayer foundation by adding a more refined competitive mode for MOBA-style gameplay on the go.
"Our take on the MOBA genre is more RPG-esque," a Trendy employee states on the official
Dungeon Defenders 2
site, "with more hero customisation, persistent hero leveling, loot, and a town square where players can socialise, manage their heroes, shop, trade, and queue for matches."
That's not to say that the developer will be ignoring
Dungeon Defenders
fans in favour of courting
League of Legends
In fact,
Dungeon Defenders 2
will feature an all new co-op campaign set in a 24-player overworld. This mode, Trendy believes, is the "true sequel" to the original game.
Second time's the charm
It's no secret that we took issue with the iOS version of
Dungeon Defenders
While we applauded the inventive spin on the tower defence genre, we felt the game's cluttered interface and poorly implemented controls left much to be desired.
However, with the Trendy team paring down this F2P sequel's prospective platforms to PC, iOS, and Android, we hope the studio can fix these issues and deliver a truly optimised mobile experience.
Dungeon Defenders 2
will be available in two separate chapters: one for co-op mode, one for competitive mode. Expect the competitive mode - which is in beta at the moment - to be launched first.

I have a SRF05 ultrasonic sensor mounted to a wireless robot. The signal from the SRF05 is run into a Arduino Duemilanove board. I am able to monitor the change is distance of a object from the serial monitor. My problem is that I would like to send this value to a the Java page so the distance can be monitored while the robot is in use. My problem is I am unsure of how to get the value out of the Duemilanove board? Here is a program that I am working with,
#include "WProgram.h"
void setup();
void loop();
int duration; // Stores duratiuon of pulse in
int distance; // Stores distance
int srfPin = 2; // Pin for SRF05
int outPin = 3; // Output Pin for SRF05!!
void setup(){
pinMode(outPin, OUTPUT); // Initialize pin 3 as output!!
void loop(){
pinMode(srfPin, OUTPUT);
digitalWrite(srfPin, LOW); // Make sure pin is low before sending a short high to trigger ranging
digitalWrite(srfPin, HIGH); // Send a short 10 microsecond high burst on pin to start ranging
digitalWrite(srfPin, LOW); // Send pin low again before waiting for pulse back in
pinMode(srfPin, INPUT);
duration = pulseIn(srfPin, HIGH); // Reads echo pulse in from SRF05 in micro seconds
distance = duration/58; // Dividing this by 58 gives us a distance in cm
digitalWrite(outPin, HIGH); // Writes value to outPin 3!!
delay(50); // Wait before looping to do it again
int main(void)
for (;
return 0;
I added in the code for the output pin and labeled it with "!!".

|Anti-thrombotic properties of CO-RMs
|résumé :
|OBJECTIVE: We compared the antithrombotic effects in vivo of 2 chemically different carbon monoxide-releasing molecules (CORM-A1 and CORM-3) on arterial and venous thrombus formation and on hemostatic parameters such as platelet activation, coagulation, and fibrinolysis. The hypotensive response to CORMs and their effects on whole blood gas analysis and blood cell count were also examined. METHODS AND RESULTS: CORM-A1 (10-30 µmol/kg, i.v.), in a dose-dependent fashion, significantly decreased weight of electrically induced thrombus in rats, whereas CORM-3 inhibited thrombosis only at the highest dose used (30 µmol/kg). CORM-A1 showed a direct and stronger inhibition of platelet aggregation than CORM-3 in healthy rats, both in vitro and in vivo. The antiaggregatory effect of CORM-A1, but not CORM-3, correlated positively with weight of the thrombus. Concentration of active plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 in plasma also decreased in response to CORM-A1, but not to CORM-3. Neither CORM-A1 nor CORM-3 had an effect on plasma concentration of active tissue plasminogen activator. CORM-3, but not CORM-A1, decreased the concentration of fibrinogen, fibrin generation, and prolonged prothrombin time. Similarly, laser-induced venous thrombosis observed intravitally via confocal system in green fluorescent protein mice was significantly decreased by CORMs. Although both CORM-A1 and CORM-3 (30 µmol/kg) decreased platelets accumulation in thrombus, only CORM-A1 (3-30 µmol/kg) inhibited platelet activation to phosphatidylserine on their surface. CONCLUSIONS: CORM-3 and CORM-A1 inhibited thrombosis in vivo, however CORM-A1, which slowly releases carbon monoxide, and displayed a relatively weak hypotensive effect had a more pronounced antithrombotic effect associated with a stronger inhibition of platelet aggregation associated with a decrease in active plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 concentration. In contrast, the fast CO releaser CORM-3 that displayed a more pronounced hypotensive effect inhibited thrombosis primarily through a decrease in fibrin generation, but had no direct influence on platelet aggregation and fibrynolysis.

Addition of garage or carport
Addition of balcony or terrace
Customer requirements
Add a garage large enough for two cars and an atrium, taking into account the existing access to the basement. Preserve the Charlevoix cachet of the actual residence. The project should also include a shaded patio.
Report of the technologist
The garage is detached from the house to provide the space for the shaded patio and to include the access to the basement located in the front of the house (considering that the view shown is the rear of the house. Furthermore, the slope of the garage roof is reversed to impart a certain dynamic to the whole. The cachet is preserved by utilizing materials closely matching the existing ones.

What they said...
Leicester director of rugby Richard Cockerill
He told Leicester's official website: "They're historically the best club in France, they're the most successful team in Europe, and there's not a harder place to go so, we've got to be right.
"It's the unique nature of the Heineken Cup to go to places like Toulouse and have two good sides playing each other in the first round."
Toulouse coach Guy Noves
"Leicester is a team that has been European champions, champions of England and has experience at least equal to our own, so this will be a match of the highest level.
"It is a match everyone has been waiting for since the start of the season. Anything can happen in this competition as we saw last year when we beat Harlequins away and they came to win in Toulouse."

one tree hill meme: five otps [1/5]
Brooke Davis and Julian Baker
"Brooke, before I met you I thought my world had everything I needed to be happy. I had nothing else to compare it to, then you walked into my life and everything changed. I realized how empty my world was without you in it, and my old life was no longer capable of making me happy… not without you. I love everything about you, Brooke. I love the way you challenged me like no one ever has. I love the way you look at me like no one ever has, and I love the way you love me like no one ever has. I can't imagine spending my life without you, and if you say "yes" to me in a few minutes, I won't have to. You look beautiful by the way."

I understand the importance of "digital executors" and "digital estate planning," at least for people who are producing or posting stuff of worth or enduring value on the internet. But really though, we have to draw a line somewhere. Most of the crap that people have created over the past few millenia should have been, and has, been weeded from the annals of history and the acid-free boxes of the archive, and now that our production is so much more voluminous there's all the more urgency to junk that which is junk. Or, to put it more delicately:
But the tools we use privilege the moment, not the long term; they also tend to make everything feel roughly equal in importance and offer us little incentive to comb back through our digital scribblings and sort out what might have lasting meaning from what probably doesn't. The results are pretty much the opposite of a scrapbook carefully edited to serve as a memory object but could end up serving that function by default.
Per usual (sidenote, can we decide on a way to write the spoken shortened version of "usual"? this issue has come up in multiple emails of late. I mean what do linguists have to do, really), things magazine has anticipated my thoughts more beautifully than I could express them:
But at some point in the (probably very distant) future, the number of dead people online will suddenly outnumber the living ones. Virtual corpses will start to become a real problem, just as physical corpses fill up real-world graveyards and have to be carted off and stacked up somewhere else. Imagine the internet as a virtual version of the Catacombs of Paris or the Sedlec Ossuary, a digital museum whose aura of human involvement is concealed behind a brittle carapace of hyperlinks, tweets and forgotten comments.
Shouldn't we just face up to the banality and insurmountable overabundance of most of our digital output? And the fact that most blogging platforms, social networking sites, file-storing accounts, etc. are not really interested in the long-term storage of our precious little internet rubies and diamonds? I'm not going to show my grandaughters my Tumblr, because Tumblr is not going to exist (hello?), and also because I'm embarrassed of things that I wrote last month. If I wanted textual immortality, I guess I would take my things to Legacy Locker or DataInherit or, you know, make them tangible and keep them in a safe space.
Still though, lovin' the title and the art on the article.

Rifle Safe
Jimmy from Fresno, CA– Verified Buyer
Great compact gun and rifle safe for the small closet
gun safe
Eric from Hagerstown, MD– Verified Buyer
good product for the price. could be much taller though.
Good Item
CARLO from Miami– Verified Buyer
Work as described. Good safe! Previous reviews state that the safe don't anyways read the fingerprint but you have to make your fingers are dry.
As Advertised
Jonathan from Virginia
I am happy with this gun safe. It is just the size and quality that I was expecting. It works just as it should and it's as advertised.
Nice Safe
Anthony from Fancy Gap, VA– Verified Buyer
This is a nice, small safe for keeping one or two firearms handy in a spot where a larger one won't fit. The biometric lock works as advertised... for my wife. For some reason it fails to read my fingerprints 90 of the time. Frustrating to me, but funny to her. That one quirk is the reason I rate it 4 rather than 5 stars I did have to repair a frayed wire in the electrical harness, but to me that wasn't a problem. Just needed a bit of electrical tape and a screwdriver. Overall, I would recommend this safe.
John from Texas– Verified Buyer
This is a nice solid safe. We've had it for a while now and haven't had a single problem with it. The sides could use to be a little sturdier. We attached it to the wall and that helped to give it more strength.
Great product
Jeb from Springfield, IL– Verified Buyer
Great product for the price. The biometrics work flawlessly every time with no false positives. Big enough for a couple of rifles and a hand gun bit not much more.
Rifle Safe
Anonymous from TX– Verified Buyer
The Barsja quick access biometric lock rifle safe is just what I was looking for. My order process went seamlessly and I am happy with the product.
Dan from California
I like this product in that it give easier access to the authorized people in your house without fumbling for a key. however. The unit is small. one small handgun, a .22 lever action, and an ar15 (with scope detached) is all that I can fit in mine. Presently search for an attachment or 2 that I can attach to the inside of the door.
Good for what you get
Anonymous from Alabama
I got this for my son and he knew that it that it is a more light weight safe. He just wanted something to store his guns away from his kids and know they cant get to them. With the fingerprint security his kids cant get into the safe. He also had it bolted to the wall because of it being more light weight. I had it shipped to him and he got it in good time.

I know what you're thinking, Where did Animal Monday go? Sorry to leave ya hangin'. It went to Paris to visit company headquarters. Today, it's back with a vengeance as we deliver two full weeks worth of cute, funny, and crazy critters. We've got stunt deer, voiceovers, sleepy cats, spiteful cats, crafty cats, desperate dogs, emotional dogs, singing dogs, and a man who rules all the turkeys. Put your paws up for a double dose of Animal Monday.

He had glasses on with pj's.
"Aziza,when I saw you,I knew instantly you were my love.But then I was dragged away from you and now I got the blues!!",David singed horribly without a care.
"David,what are you doing?",Lucas asked very wierded out.
"I'm singing about my first love.",David said still playing the guitar.
"Alright,so my very wierd son fell in love with the daughter of my new boss after looking at her for a minute or two?",Lucas cleared out.
"Hello!I also talked and gave a smile,da-ddy!",David complained.
"Right,right,because that's how you get a girlfriend.",Lucas chuckled.
"Oh,you be quiet.Maid,get me some chinese food!",David yelled.
"David,we're in Egypt.They don't have chinese food here.",Lucas laughed.
David's eyes shot open.His teeth bared.His face turned red.
He threw his guitar aside and stood on the bed.He pointed directly at his father and growled.
"My life lives on chinese food.And you tell me THERE IS NO CHINESE FOOD IN STUPID EGYPT??"
"...yes.They do have ice-cream.",Lucas said with a shrug/
"Oh,Maid,get me some ice-cream instead.And tell people to build a chinese food store.",David called out and went straight back to his In-Love position.
"My weird,weird,WEIRD son...",Lucas said shaking his head and walked away closing the door.
"Aziza!Aziza!",David cried out and began to sob.
Monifa walked into Aziza's room and held out her best heels.
"You think it is funny to mess with my things?",Monifa asked.
"Yeah,hilarious.",Aziza said as she went back to looking at her magazine.
"You are going to pay for this!",Monifa whined.
"Stop acting like a stupid robot!",Monifa yelled.
"Ugghh!",Monifa screamed and slammed the door.
Aziza threw the magazine aside and turned on her back looking at her ceiling that had all kind of posters of artists on it.
"Man,do I want to see David again...I bet Monifa is just crazy to meet him too.I just know she likes him too.",Aziza muttered.
She looked to the side to see a picture of her and her sisters.
"I wonder why Monifa is always challenging me.I bet she even knows that the one who ruined the shoes was that annoying little booger of a dog she has.",Aziza muttered and then heard the barking.
She stuck out her tongue and groaned for a long moment wanting to die.
Aziza shot up on the bed and looked over to see Monifa.
"What is it now,Moni?",Aziza asked.
"Azi,you like David right?",Monifa asked.
Aziza gulped and shook her head quickly.
"Please,he looks all wierd and boring.",Aziza laughed nervously.
Monifa smirked and came in closing the door,after her poodle,Ain,walked in.
"Dear Aziza,I see you have fallen for the new american.",Monifa said and sat on the bed by Aziza.
"Fine,I have.And he likes me too,it is very obvious.So do not go trying to catch his attention.",Aziza retorted.
"Oh,dear little sister.I do not even have to try.It is obvious he likes beauty and I have the most out of us sister.And we are the same age so we're perfect for eachother.",Monifa challenged.
"Fine,must we have a contest to do this?",Aziza asked.
"Yes,and I will prove that my beauty will beat your obsession with America.",Monifa said.
"Fine,the prize is David.Now,what about if you lose?",Aziza asked.
"The winner has the boy.The loser is to ask father to go to the school of nuns where no boys are allowed.",Monifa clarified.
"I accept.",Aziza agreed and held out her hand.
Monifa grabbed it and shook it excitedly.
"Watch how fast this competition will go down and I'll have my hands all over David.",Monifa said and stoodd up.
"Remember,Monifa.No rules.We are able to do whatever we want to win.",Aziza reminded her.
"Oh,I know.Watch you back,little sister.I will do anything to win.",Monifa said and grabbed Ain.
"Oh,and you should watch your back as well.You never know is I throw little Ain there out the window just for the satisfaction.",Aziza said with a huge smile.
Monifa flipped her hair and left for the door.
Once she was gone,Aziza began to make faces and almost stuck the middle finger when her best friend came in.
"Oh,Bahiti!",Aziza said with a jump.
"Yes,I am Bahiti,your most trusted and fortunous friend.And I overheard your conversation with Medusa Monifa.",Bahiti said and ran to the bed jumping on it.
"Yep!And you will help me!Am I right?",Aziza said with a big smile and thumbs up.
"You know it!",Bahiti said and they high-fived.
Bahiti jumped off the bed and did a little dance before running to the door.
"What are you doing?",Aziza asked.
"Actualy,you and me are going to his house!Duh!Now,get in pretty clothes and let's go!",Bahiti said and left the room.
