Mont Blanc Adventures, Chamonix, France
Reviews > Europe > France > Chamonix > Mont Blanc Adventures
The Alps 2008
It all began almost a year ago after an expedition in Fagaras Mountains at the end of October. We were on the peaks of the mountain at the alpine refuge called Vistea. When we woke up in the morning it was foggy, windy and a blizzard started. We wanted to climb Moldoveanu peak 2544 m, the highest in the country, but we had to descend as soon as possible due to severe weather conditions. Then we came up with the idea: " Let's climb Mont Blanc! ". We were stuck with the idea the whole year. We prepared ourselves in the Carpathians having physical and technical training till the day of our leave.
Then the day of September 5th 2008 came, day when we headed to France, more exactly to Chamonix which is located at the foot of the mountain, also called the capital of mountain climbing. We went on the route Oradea-Budapesta-Viena-Munchen-Ravensburg. We stopped in Ravensburg at a friend to have a rest and the next day we went on to Chamonix passing through Bena. We camped in Les Houces resort and the next day we started ascending.
We took the cable to Bellevue at 1875m and from there the little train called Tramway du Mont-Blanc that took us to Nid D'agle 2373m. From here we started the real climb. Immediately after we set off we realized that we were on the wrong path, there are no touristic signs, just a very obvious path and we missed the entrance to the path. Seeing other climbers we returned to the right way after we passed a little valley. The weather was excellent, sunny, perfect visibility and no wind. We saw a lot of black goats going about their way without minding our presence, the presence of humans does not scare them, they even made a strange sound as if to leave them alone. We went on climbing checking the altitude on our watch, it indicated 2745 m and we realized we passed the highest point in Romania, a new record in altitude for all of us. Climbers who descend start to appear coming directly from the top, it was a perfect day to reach the top, but we would try to reach it only after 2 days. We had to get used to the climate, to get our body used to thin air otherwise we would have risked not resisting over 4000 m or even get one of the altitude diseases. We got to Tette Rouse 3167 m, we put up our tents and start to melt snow for getting water. We were feeling excellent and were very confident. We often looked at the steepest part of the mountain we were about to climb the next day; a 700 m difference in altitude, very steep climb. We admired the sunset,
it was gorgeous! Immediately after sunset the temperature dropped about 15 degrees Celsius and we got in our sleeping bags to keep warm.
In the morning I was woken up by the wind that rocked the tent in all directions. It was warm and comfortable to be in the sleeping bag. I brace myself to get out, open the tent, outside was clear, no clouds and fog, but the wind was blowing very fast, a sign that the weather would soon change. We ate something quickly, drank a cup of hot tea, pack our tents and set off. In summer on this part of the mountain there is not much snow and you don't normally need special boots, but now it was snowy and all frozen. The rocky parts alternated the icy ones which made climbing more technical. So we put on the
hooks on our boots and kept handy the ice axe. The first nervous moments were when we had to pass the well known "Grand culoire"(The great pass way), a valley on which
rocks and ice fall from above with incredible speed and stop on the Bionassi glacier found 1000m below, then the winding track goes up through the rocks. After a 4 hours climb we get to the Gouter refuge 3817 m. the wind went of blowing all day bringing the clouds, it blew so heavily that it was too angerous to put up the tents on the edge, so we decided to put them up in an annex of the refuge; we also got a discount because we
were members of CAR Romanian Alpine Club. Supply is done by helicopter so everything is very expensive, especially for us: 1,5 l of water is about 5 Euros and a portion of spaghetti 15 Euros. So we melted ice to have water. We were a bit tired but we were fine, we also felt the altitude effects, I had a bit of a headache, but it was ok, staying at 3100m last night to acclimatize was a good thing. After we got hydrated with tea and soup and after a portion of potato flakes with sausages cooked on a small cooker for the outdoors, we went to bed. We went to sleep very difficultly. we could already feel the altitude, the effects appear after 4-8 hours of reaching a higher altitude. The weather forecast was not a promising one, but we had a chance to get to the top and get back till afternoon. So at 3 am we were up. Others headed towards the top but came back
as soon as they came to the ridge because of the wind that kept blowing even more severely. We said we will try, too.
At 4 am we were equipped and came out of the tents..you could see the stars, a good sign so we had a chance. Till we put our ropes around us the stars were gone and a blizzard
started. Relying on the weather forecast we went on climbing hoping it will get better, snow and fog were announced only for the afternoon. We went on and on up, it was foggy, windy and snowy. At the lantern's light we could see in the night about 4/5 m ahead. We got to the peak Dom Du Gouter 4304 m where we got lost. There was a big plateau and we simply did not know which way to go to get to the top. We decided to wait for the daybreak hoping the weather will get better. We tried to move continuously as staying in one place I felt my legs getting cold. After 6:30 am it got lighter, but the light is diffuse when there's fog so visibility got worse. This phenomenon is called white-off as everything is white, the fog, the snow everything around you.you can't see a thing; I could see the tip of my boot and I could not appreciate if the track was pointing up or
down, I just felt that I was descending. After about 30 min we decided to return. We just knew we had to go downwards, but our tracks were covered by snow so we went on and on not knowing where. Fresh snow deposited on top of the frozen one, so the possibility of an avalanche to occur increased and we did not know where we were. We reached the edge of a very steep and icy cliff, we got scared and we went to the right till froze still. There was a crevasse like you can see only on TV. We walked through it an at 3900 m we came out of the clouds and we could see the ridge that leads to Gouter refuge.
We stopped a bit to rest and eat and then we continued descending. The wind kept blowing strongly, we had to stop many times not to be knocked out. We were to descend almost
vertically a 700 m part till the place where we camped the first night. Step by step we lost altitude. We passed Grand Culoire and we continued descending till Nid D'agle to the train, then the cable to the base camp in Les Houices. We returned all safe, happy but still sad we could not reach the top. The next day we set off to Romania stopping to visit more touristic spots: Interlaken, Switzerland and Innsburk, Austria.
We will return next year to finish off what we started!

Came across something like this today, and was wondering if there was an equivalent way to solve it in criteria queries.
Basically, there is a table, and this table has two nullable string fields (foo and bar). We wish to sort by the aggregate of these.
string concatenation (
order by foo + bar desc) returns null if one of the values is null, and
order by foo, bar doesn't take into account nulls as we wish.
a solution in sql could look like :
SELECT foo, bar, (ISNULL(foo,'') + ISNULL(bar,'')) as f
FROM foobar
ORDER BY f DESC
I'm not sure of the details within nhibernate's tokenizer, but if you were to write it as
SELECT foo, bar
FROM foobar
ORDER BY (ISNULL(foo,'') + ISNULL(bar,'')) DESC
using the same query method it chokes because it parses both foo and bar as individual sort expressions.
So...how would you write that in a criteria query? Is there such a method, or would a new ResultTransformer or after-the-fact sorting be the only option?

There have been countless rumors, leaks and reports suggesting that Samsung's efforts are concentrated on making the Galaxy S6 stand out from the previously launched smartphones in the series. Codenamed "Project Zero", the SGS6 is supposed to be built from the ground up as a brand new flagship, and one of the areas where the Galaxy S6 is supposed to truly evolve is design.
With a new chassis in tow, most gadget enthusiasts have assumed that the Samsung Galaxy S6 will "one up" the Galaxy Note 4 by delivering not only a metal frame, but a full metal unibody. However, according to the latest reports from Korea, the Samsung Galaxy S6 could take a different route; one that has been traveled before by numerous other manufacturers including Sony, LG, Google and Apple.
Samsung Galaxy S6 to Feature a Glass Back Panel?
A "Samsung Electronics official" who has apparently spoken with one of Korea's online publications ("DDaily") may have shed more light on the company's plans regarding its next flagship phone. Based on this recent report, neither the Samsung Galaxy S6 nor the Galaxy S6 Edge will feature a full metal unibody shell. Instead, the smartphones will employ a metal frame similar to the Note 4's, which will be flanked by glass panels on both the front and the rear sides. An no, the battery won't be removable, according to the same source.
In other words, the Samsung Galaxy S6 could feature a glass back panel much like numerous other daring smartphones before it, including the iPhone 4, the LG Nexus 4 and numerous Sony Xperia devices. It sounds a bit boring doesn't it? We could hope for a sapphire crystal back similar to the recently announced Oppo R1C, but given the high volume of SGS6 and S6 Edge units expected to be produced this year, a sapphire panel for each and every one of them sounds ambitious to say the least.
As for the alleged reasons as to why Samsung might choose a glass panel and a metal frame over a full metal unibody chassis, well, the report suggests that the Korean tech giant might want to differentiate its "Premium" flagship line-up from the "Mid-Range" Galaxy A series, which happens to employ a metal unibody design. So does this mean that Sammy may have shot itself in the foot with the A series?
In the end, we can't say for sure if these rumors are correct so we advise you to treat them accordingly. They do give us a new and intriguing theory, but we'll have to wait for more data to emerge.

WaferGen Biosystems acquired the next-generation sequencing library preparation business from IntegenX. The company took over all of the assets of IntegenX' product line used in connection with developing, manufacturing, marketing, and selling instruments and reagents relating to library preparation for NGS, including the Apollo 324™ instrument and PrepX® reagents. The deal included an up-front cash payment of $2.0 million, a $1.25 million secured promissory note, up to three earn-out payments payable based on revenue thresholds, and WaferGen's assumption of certain liabilities related to the acquired business.
"We are very excited about adding IntegenX' NGS library prep business to our product portfolio. It is highly synergistic with our existing products, especially our NGS target enrichment SmartChip TE™ offering," said Ivan Trifunovich, president and CEO of WaferGen Bio-systems. "Serving the same customer base, the two products together address a wide spectrum of customer needs in sample preparation for NGS and enable one-stop shopping for laboratories performing targeted sequencing."
According to marketsandmarkets.com, NGS is the fastest-growing and most lucrative segment in the genomics space with an estimated growth of 16.3%. The firm recently published a study which reported that the global NGS market was valued at $1.3 billion in 2012 and is poised to reach $2.7 billion by 2017.

Cuckoo for Cocoa
does eating chocolate make us so happy? It's a chemical thing. The "food
of the gods" contains theobromine, a stimulating
alkaloid similar to caffeine. Chocolate also helps
the brain produce feel-good serotonin. Be sure to
indulge in the dark variety — it contains incredible
amounts of antioxidants, whereas milk chocolate is
just that: milk and sugar with trace amounts of cocoa.

it is true that there might be economic peaks that could help them all if they were to stay tied together, a lot of nations (germany) are frustrated at having to be the financial pillar on which weak and poor nations stand on, and when the middle class nations that are on the far end of middle class can't get any help because they let in more poor nations that suck away all the money that could be helping to boost a struggling nation into a prosperous one, to instead hold up a failing one on the edge of perpetual mediocritee

of course being Eurosceptic doesn't make you de-facto a xenophobe. but the majority of euro sceptic people I talk to don't have any real reasons for being opposed to the EU except "get foreigners out, open borders hurr durr". Really, there was little solid Euroscepticism until people started regurgitating Farage's bullshit.

The fact is ever since the European Union has been created the countries have been going down the shitter. The Euro is a complete failure that was forced on us, other countries that are already collapsed like Greece are dragging us down, government power has increase exponentially to the point where they want a super-state, completely different cultures are colliding with eachother and causing violence, open borders encouraging poor and unskilled immigration that is good in the short term for businesses as a source of cheap labor but bad in the medium & longer term for the taxpayer as these people require costly government services and require expensive infrastructure to be built to sustain them, neither of which the new immigrants can afford to pay for.
This has nothing to do with the left-wing rhetoric of "hurr if you disagree with us ur racist", it's about an economy that is clearly collapsing.
#106 - kristovsky (09/12/2014) [-]
Since the creation of the European Union, trade within it has increased by £200 billion. Countries like Poland, Estonia, Lithuania etc are developing very fast. It's easy to complain about the EU, because you don't know what would have happened without it. And without the EU, we would see a much more economically insignificant Europe, a far more lagging East, countries like Spain, Greece and Portugal would be completely stagnant, Russia would have a far greater influence on European Politics in the East, and the US would Dictate Politics in the West.
The Euro is not a complete failure, look at Estonia, Germany, Belgium, Malta, Slovenia etc. What failed was the Greek, Spanish and Italian governments, who did not control corruption, spending or tax evasion within their own country, the Euro did not make their decisions, the governments did. In fact, the Eurozone economy is currently doing Better than Russia's, Ukraine's, And Brazil's, these are all supposed developing economies which should be growing fast.
As for immigration, EU migrants generate more capital from tax per person than native people in Britain, so I'm not complaining. You want to know about British infrastructure? We haven't built any new Railways since the Victorian era, we haven't built any new hospitals since the 60s, we haven't built any new motorways since the 70s. British infrastructure was already collapsing under lack of investment from a succession of capital, finance-sector obsessed governments, it has little or nothing to do with EU migrants, of which a similar number have come to Britain to those who left Britain to go and live in other EU countries. They require no more "costly infrastructure" than the people already living in Britain desperately needed.
Increased EU integration has had many benefits for consumers, such as freedom to holiday in Europe where I want and decreased roaming charges, your "Superstate" doesn't sound too bad to me.
#117 - kanadetenshi (09/12/2014) [-]
That has nothing to do with the European Union, it's the result of the european economic area which serves it's purpose as a trade union without the blatant corruption, collapse and other bullshit. To assume that we cannot properly trade between countries without blatantly opening our borders is bullshit. If our economy was based on a complete free market then trading would be inevitable. Just look at Switzerland, never had to join the EU and still is doing far greater than many of the EU countries.
Germany is practically the only one benefiting from it. Belgium is still slowly recovering from a massive crisis, in fact all the countries you mentioned are only looking like they're not a failure because they've started to recover by the damage that was gone by...you guessed it, the glorious european union. Now let's look at the countries who have been going worse ever since the EU. Italy, Britain, Netherlands, France, Ireland, Spain, Sweden, Portugal, Denmark among many others have been turning into complete shit all because we are forced to spoonfeed countries that are doomed to fail.
The infrastructure was fine, it didn't really need any of that bullshit you're talking about until immigration became rampant, they require far more infrastructure due to different cultural norms, inability to assimilate and leeching off every single welfare policy they can find, and yet they can't afford any of it.
Oh yeah increased crime rates, culture wars, ethic groups pressuring others, business monopolies, economic collapse and a big goverment increasingly fucking up our freedom sounds not bad at all. It's certainly not bad that The Netherlands went from AAA to AA status thanks to the euro, to have increased crime and instability, to have a bloated bureaucracy, to heavily regulate a free market.
#171 - kristovsky (09/12/2014) [-]
Actually increased trade it has a lot to do with the European Union, because a big part of the EU's job is standardisation of pan European quality standards and industry regulations. This makes it far easier and cheaper for companies to operate across and sell to different European markets, because, for example, they do not have to set up separate manufacturing facilities in order to produce different components for different companies (something smaller business would not have the resources to do) and so increases the likely hood that those companies can sell to those markets.
Also, 'Blatant corruption'? where is the EU corrupt? some EU member countries are quite corrupt, but the EU? Not an Issue I have ever heard of, this sounds like UKIP nonsense.
And really, Sweden, Denmark, the Netherlands, France are going to shit? these are countries which regularly get named in the top highest percentage of best places to live. As I said, The situation of Portugal, Spain and Italy is their own doing. For years these countries broke the rules of the single currency set by the EU, they are paying the price for their governments failure to adhere to their commitments, as well as failing to tackle corruption in their ranks and nation wide tax evasion. This is what you don't understand, different economies have done differently under the Euro because of the way their own politicians have handled it. As nice as you may find it to shout boo at the EU, it told these countries time and time again not to brake the guidelines set for use of the currency, something they willingly agreed to.
Also, EU immigrants are 4 times less likely to claim benefits than British nationals (1% of population for EU migrants compared to 4% for Native Britons). I would rather have them here than those 4% of so called Natives.
And if you think the EU is the one causing economic collapse and loss of freedom, i have 3 letters for you: U S A.

>Germany is practically the only one benefiting from it.
And it's not even the general population, it's the big corporations. We, the public, don't feel our 'best Germany we ever had', as our federal president put it, at all. What we feel is cold progression and one campaign to 'save' Greece with taxpayer money after another.

I don't hate the EU because it's foreign, I dislike it because it's taking away my nation's sovereignty. It's eventually going to end up as the united states of Europe, and I don't Britain to be the equivalent of Texas or something. I want it to remain a real country.
#81 - MrDeadiron (09/12/2014) [-]
The EU jut seems like a bad idea.
#71 - kristovsky (09/12/2014) [-]
The EU never "took" anyone's sovereignty, all powers given to the EU were willingly agreed to by every member state, by the Leaders our people elected to represent us. At most it's a pooling or sharing of powers at an EU level, which in a world where European countries are quickly diminishing, is very necessary for continued prosperity.
Besides, what's so bad about an USE? (And let's be realistic, nothing like that is happening any time soon, very few people in Europe want it) Scotland, Wales and England have been part of the United Kingdom for 300 years, has that diminished anyone's individual sense of nationality? Have they become "non countries" because of it? Of course not (they are each called "constituent countries of the UK" are they not?), The only thing it has done is bestow people with a new Nationality, and without the UK each of those countries would never have come anywhere near to amounting what they did.
Whether you like it or not, feudal nationalism does not have any place in a Successful, 21st century Europe. For our continued prosperity, we need power, and for that we (everyone in Europe) need the EU. It's no coincidence that the model is being copied by every one else, The African Union? NAFTA? ASEAN? The South American Union? all came about because of the EU model, hell Russia is even trying to create their own "Russosphere" type trade block (at a basic level that is at the heart of the Ukraine crisis, but that is a separate issue). Not investing in the EU and keeping ourselves, at least at a basic level, away from an affiliation to a larger block will leave us in the past, while the rest of the world speeds ahead.
Although from what I have seen, the past is where most British people seem to want to live.
#135 - TooWierdToLive (09/12/2014) [-]
Every single argument regarding this whole matter, whether it be about scottish and english relations or the EU as a whole is going to have their own defences so it's really just down to each individuals opinion on how strong those defences are to them.
I just wanted to point out in the first place that in the future we're going to have to accept that to be successful we will have to unite into a bigger and stronger state, this has evidently already happened with the introduction of the EU and it wasnt really forced, it was a natural unification of, on the most part, mutual agreements. We all get angry in the EU, such as the UK, Germany or France when we get pulled down by countries that suffer more, such as greece, italy or Spain but we forget that that's what the whole concept was about, helping each other out in bad times but also benefiting from eachother when the economy and everything is going well (which is just starting to happen).
Look i'm as patriotic as an americunt when it comes to England but the way i see it if we finally took the time to stop killing eachother with swords and shit after hundreds of years (i'm looking at you france and scotland...). Then surely we can just chill out and accept that this is the natural evolution of our nations.
Plus, the Irish have already joined in on this fecal matter and if it keeps going on then the welsh are going to want to get a piece of it aswell, nothing good will come of that.
#128 - Ashtaroth (09/12/2014) [-]
I would strongly recommend NOT using NAFTA as an example of successful economic union. That piece of legislation cost the U.S. more than all the wars we've been dancing around in for the past decade. It drove jobs out of the country in a flood that's only now starting to taper off as those business owners start to realize that Americans need jobs in order to have money to buy products. Mexico has a pretty good economy now because of it, but only because it quite literally leached the jobs it now has from the U.S. as a result of NAFTA, yet their country is still hopelessly corrupt and essentially run by drug lords, which still drives hundreds of thousands of impoverished people a year to cross the border and weasel their way into the government sponsored support systems of the U.S.
If our government over here didn't cook the books the way it does, our declared unemployment rate would be upwards of 12% instead of the 6ish they say it is. They just don't count people that aren't actually on unemployment benefits or who have totally given up trying to find non-existent work and are basically just waiting to die. If there was one specific piece of work that can squarely bear the blame for America being the way it is now, it's NAFTA.
Hopefully other regions trying to do similar stuff realize what they're digging in and make some corrections. America was at it's absolute best in pretty much every way when national pride wasn't a bad thing and we produced jobs for Americans, so other Americans could get rich off that labor. Now we "spread the love" everywhere because apparently the 3rd world is too stupid to improve itself for some reason and we need to help with that for some equally nebulous reason, the wealthy get insanely wealthy, and everyone else in the country suffers. The only reason we aren't a third world country is because our buildings aren't run down enough yet to fit the role and the government uses Monopoly money to stay afloat.

Our experts weigh in on four of the biggest questions in NASCAR this week:
Turn 1: What do you make of the news that nine top NASCAR teams have formed the Race Team Alliance to have a united voice on issues owners face in the sport?
Ed Hinton, ESPN.com: The France family's worst nightmare, dating to 1947, is now reality. The monarchy is still in place, but is no longer absolute, and will no longer be able to take all it wants for itself. Championship Auto Racing Teams and the Formula One Constructors Association weren't "unions" per se, either -- they were consolidations of power that seized control of, and enormously changed, their realms.
Michael Waltrip Racing co-owner Rob Kauffman, who was elected the aliance's chairman, spoke in mild, diplomatic language -- but all that means is that the giant has been born sleeping. NASCAR dare not awaken it. Just the idea of those nine teams' haulers pulling out of a garage area on a Friday or Saturday amounts to a nuclear deterrent. Enormous power may be wielded beyond public view. It's a matter of time until the RTA gets a much larger share of TV money, gathers veto power over technical rules changes, exerts pressure on scheduling -- pretty much anything it wants. Bill France Jr.'s old iron mantra of "we can do without you" has just been gutted.
This thing came very close to happening in the mid-1990s. The rumblings were palpable in the garages. But France managed to defuse it. Since then, NASCAR's greed has resumed. The RTA was born of that saying: "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me." These powerful teams, and this titanic alliance, will not be fooled again. Fans needn't worry. They won't be hurt by this. If anything, they'll be helped.
Brant James, ESPN.com: This should be a disconcerting move for NASCAR, because it might cost it money. Get an international investment banker, a billionaire and a sundry room full of millionaires and car salesmen together and eventually they will begin devising clever means to improve their margins. A main goal could or should be to form a wedge against the sanctioning body's penchant for luring away team sponsors. Offering a potential sponsor a raft of race cars from Hendrick, Team Penske, Stewart-Haas et al could be compelling, and a better deal than signing on with a faceless sanctioning body.
Ryan McGee, ESPN The Magazine: My first reaction was to wonder what took so long for this to happen. There has long been a pleasant tension between the sanctioning body and the competitors when it comes to one side handing the other stuff they have to do that costs money (see: new cars, new engines, etc.) while the side giving the orders cashed checks. A unified front from the teams will help when it comes to any future negotiations, be it rules changes, splitting cash or both. Heck, the RTA would prove effective merely by starting any negotiations at all. And there would be benefits to the smaller teams getting on board. If the RTA goes out and finds deals on say, travel costs, then that would help the little guy as well.
John Oreovicz, ESPN.com: I think NASCAR should definitely consider it a warning shot, and the stock car fan base has reason to be worried. An owners' group was probably inevitable, but it should still concern the France family. History tells us that such organizations can be good or bad for a sport. Created in 1974 by Bernie Ecclestone, the Formula One Constructors Association helped massively elevate F1 racing into a worldwide juggernaut, but it also stripped power from the sanctioning body. On the other hand, the formation of CART benefited Indy car racing in the short term, but it also increased the political tension within the sport to the point that it ultimately resulted in another power grab -- the infamous IRL/CART war that essentially trivialized Indy car racing in America and around the world. The Frances and NASCAR run a tight dictatorship, but the owners putting together the RTA might be advised to be careful about what they wish for.
Marty Smith, ESPN Insider: I make that powerful men with leverage just made a power play to protect their interests and their assets. From every conversation I've had with industry sources, this is my hypothesis on the Race Team Alliance: I believe at its foundation the RTA is first and foremost based on the desire of the owners to receive more television revenue. NASCAR signed an $8 billion television broadcast rights package that begins next season. The bulk of that money goes to the tracks and the sanctioning body. The tracks are publicly traded, so richer tracks mean happier shareholders. The sanctioning body, of course, is a family-owned business -- our way or the highway. Yet NASCAR is a free-enterprise platform, so the team owner assumes all of the financial risk: The team owner pays for every rules change NASCAR decides to introduce, no matter how large or small. The team owner must procure sponsorship for his teams, or his teams die on the vine. And if he fails in that capacity, what's he left with? A few cents on the dollar, if he's lucky.
It's a different world than it was when Richard Petty tried to unionize the drivers way back when. Back then there weren't a ton of sponsors. Today, Fortune 500 companies allot millions of dollars to market drivers as the faces of their brands. Leverage has changed. Now, whether any of that ever facilitates anything is anybody's guess. But it's a telltale sign that owners believe they need to be unified to protect themselves.
Turn 2: How much of a shock wave did Aric Almirola's win send through the drivers with hopes of advancing to the Chase on points?
Hinton: There's still room for a surprise qualifier for the Chase. And I wasn't stunned that Almirola won. He has had some pretty strong runs foiled by wrecks and bad luck. So rather than a shock, I would call this confirmation to the dark horses that they can get in. As for the likes of Matt Kenseth, Tony Stewart and Clint Bowyer, I still say they're going to win their way in somewhere, sometime this summer.
James: Big-rippled shock waves, considering Almirola couldn't have been one of those "anticipated" winners in the final 10 races, like Matt Kenseth and Clint Bowyer -- who are currently in on points -- or Tony Stewart. Turning a first Cup win into a playoff berth is massive for Almirola and Richard Petty Motorsports, but laden with anxiety for the cadre of drivers on the cusp of the Chase cutoff.
McGee: It's big because he took away a spot from those guys to fight over and he was one of the guys who likely would've been in that group. I think the bubble will come down to points now. You had to have already believed that the Daytona race had the potential to open the Chase door for a smaller team, just as we've always looked at the two road course races. All summer I've looked at it as the last real shot for the little guys to make a Chase run, and you saw that in how those teams really threw everything they had at the entire weekend, including qualifying. Now, perhaps with the exception of Watkins Glen, I think the remaining races will be split up by the big teams.
Oreovicz: Almirola was in the mix to make the top 16 on points, but nobody really thought of him as a legitimate threat to win a race. With the Chase field unlikely to consist of 16 winners, Almirola gave NASCAR exactly the kind of "wild card" it was hoping for when it revised the playoff qualifications. Now it's praying that the final few races leading into Richmond create an interesting and exciting race for 16th place in the standings. With big names like Kenseth, Stewart, Greg Biffle and Bowyer still winless, that seems guaranteed.
Smith: It was huge, but not surprising. Not at Daytona. Plus, Almirola and Trent Owens have made notable speed at times this year. They're inconsistent but competitive. Many of us predicted Richard Petty Motorsports as a threat to do this very thing -- Almirola at Daytona or Talladega and Marcos Ambrose at Sonoma or Watkins Glen. RPM could very well place both of its drivers in the playoffs. Imagine what that means for that team and those drivers? The contractual incentives are almost certainly notable. Drivers like Kasey Kahne and Matt Kenseth went home from Daytona with wrecked race cars and way more pressure than they entered with. The urgency to win is evident.
Turn 3: Should International Speedway Corp./NASCAR move the Coke Zero 400 start time back to its traditional morning slot?
Hinton: I've been preaching that ever since they went to night racing -- Big Bill France started that race at 10 a.m. ET for a very good reason. Then 11 a.m. worked well, too. Privately, some NASCAR officials know a morning start would be better, but they are ruled by TV contracts. And networks just don't want it. I question the wisdom there. I think they'd be stunned at how good the ratings would be for an old-fashioned 10 a.m. start on the Fourth of July. But they're not going to risk it, so it won't happen.
James: Yes. Just lie and say it's in the spirit of traditionalism. Race in the morning, let fans get sunburned or rained upon later at the beach. Let fans at home do the same. Let the drivers scamper home so they can Instagram pictures of each other having a grand time on Lake Norman. Make the race something different, not just another Saturday night race under weather conditions that will always threaten to impact some part of the schedule.
McGee: No. On paper, that looks great, and I have grown tired of night races. But those of us who covered some of those 11 a.m. Firecracker 400s still have pieces of our shoes stuck in the Daytona asphalt because our soles melted into it.
Oreovicz: I don't think that would make a whole lot of difference. Summer storms are a fact of life in Daytona Beach; maybe you could outrun them by starting at 10 a.m., but you might just end up having a delayed race at night anyway. If I was going to make a change, I'd move the race to a Thursday night so that folks could go to the race and still enjoy a full holiday weekend.
Smith: Absolutely not. I love the Firecracker 400 as a night race. It's one of my favorite nights of every year. As it stands, it's one of the most electric events on the tour, to me. Leave it be.
Turn 4: Realistically, what sort of schedule changes should we expect to see next year, and in the next five seasons?
Hinton: Little, if any. We're talking realism, right? So there. We can conjecture all we want about tweaking, and we do every year, and every year it remains close to status quo with the occasional exception of early Chase races. Chicagoland was made the opener to boost interest in that market, and I'm not sure it has helped a whole lot in anti-NASCARland. The only possibility of change would come if the new Chase format yields a spike in interest, so that track operators lobby harder for Chase schedule position.
James: Not a ton, in the short term. Maybe Darlington moving to a different slot. Iowa seems years and many local expenditures from landing a Cup date. NASCAR chairman Brian France said this weekend that "robust" discussions have been held regarding scheduling with a new television deal beginning next season, but it's hard to envision the real tough labor getting done, shrinking the schedule and paring dates from weak or oversaturated markets.
McGee: Realistically? I don't expect much. I think there will be some shuffling of the Chase races, particularly in the first half. And I do think we might get a midweek night race or two during the summer. But I don't expect any big shockers like a road course in the Chase, or taking away races from struggling two-date tracks and plugging them into places like Iowa and Austin, or ending the season earlier in the fall. Is that what I want to see? Yes. Is that what I think we will see? History says no.
Oreovicz: Based on NASCAR's history and tradition, schedule changes will range from nonexistent to minimal. We can make suggestions until the cow jumps over the moon and NASCAR will still retain the same basic schedule. The debate will rage on about adding a road course to the Chase, whether some tracks deserve two races, and where to end the season. My two cents: The finale needs to be somewhere other than Homestead, but I'd bet my next paycheck that the closer will always be staged on a track owned by the France family and International Speedway Corp. Which is too bad, because the logical place to end the season is Las Vegas -- but that will never happen because Las Vegas Motor Speedway is a Speedway Motorsports Inc. track.
Smith: Hang a dartboard on your man-room wall. Take 21 darts and 36 dates. Start throwing. See what happens. Who the heck knows?

Jamestown, NY – Two of the region's premier nature showcases are joining forces to present two days of delightful outdoor fun and learning.
On Saturday and Sunday, August 6 and 7, volunteers and staff of the Audubon Nature Center will offer special opportunities at Panama Rocks, the beautiful natural playground in Panama, New York.
Visitors will be able to explore the scenic half-mile long ridge of 60-foot high rocks that form crevices, passageways, and caves hidden in an ancient forest.
Retired Jamestown Community College professors Tom Erlandson and Dan Anderson will be stationed along the trails to teach you about the rocks and trees. Visitors can also explore displays and artifacts from the Nature Center and possibly meet one or more of the Nature Center's live animal ambassadors.
Drums Along the Waterfront Tour of Champions is once again excited to bring the top seven drum corps in the world to Western New York.

"Upon their arrival in Western New York, the members of the drum corps will try to catch up on their sleep — on the gym floors — and then get up and rehearse all day," said Drums Along the Waterfront Director Jack Gaylord Jr. "Corps are known to practice for up to 10 hours a day in preparation for a big show like the one coming here."
Following are the seven participating drum corps and where they will be staying in preparation for the event:
Jamestown, NY – It is a sad fact that Monarch Butterflies populations are declining drastically.
On Friday morning, August 5, in a coffee shop-like setting at the Audubon Nature Center, you can learn about this unique insect and how to help increase its population by raising caterpillars.
Last year, there were 150% more Monarchs on their wintering ground than there were the year before. Audubon naturalist Katie Finch, who will lead the 9:15-11:15 a.m. workshop, hopes some of those butterflies came from the Nature Center.
Audubon has been raising large numbers of Monarch Butterflies for 10 years and releasing them at the Monarch Butterfly Festival in August. This year's Festival will be on Saturday, August 27.

Veterinarian Michael Watts emphasizes the importance of pet oral health as National Pet Dental Health Month begins. Signs of dental disease may be apparent to owners who observe their pets' teeth and gums, but a veterinarian should conduct a more thorough exam. Regular dental cleanings under general anesthesia will help safeguard a pet's overall health, Watts notes, explaining that just as dental disease in humans has been linked to poor overall health and chronic disease, dental disease in pets can lead to systemic issues such as kidney trouble and other medical problems.

England Women will get their 2017 ICC Women's World Cup qualification campaign underway this summer when they take on India in the first round of the new ICC Women's Championship (ICC WC).
The ICC WC involves the top eight ranked women's teams, with results determining qualification for the ICC Women's World Cup to be held in England and Wales in 2017.
Over the next two and a half years all teams in the top eight will play each other in one-day Internationals at home or away to create an ICC WC league table with the top four teams qualifying automatically for the ICC Women's World Cup.
Countries finishing in the bottom four of the table will take part in a World Cup qualification tournament against teams from the ICC's regional structures to determine the final participants for the event in 2017.
Charlotte Edwards and her England side will be hoping to set the early pace in the ICC WC as they take on India in a three-match Royal London Women's ODI series in August.
The action gets underway with matches at Scarborough Cricket Club on Thursday August 21 and Saturday August 23, with the series culminating at Lord's on Monday August 25.
ECB has also announced today that all three Royal London Women's ODI matches against India this summer will be streamed live around the world on the ECB's YouTube channel.
Ahead of the ODI series, England will start their international summer by taking on India in a Test match at Wormsley Cricket Ground from August 13-16. BBC Radio will be providing live ball-by-ball commentary of the Test via BBC Radio 5 Live Sports Extra and online at www.bbc.co.uk/cricket.
ECB Head of England Women's Cricket, Clare Connor, said: "The ICC Women's Championship represents a significant step for the global development of the women's game.
"For the first time, international women's cricket will follow a long-term future tours programme to generate a meaningful ranking system to decide which countries qualify for the ICC Women's World Cup in England in 2017.
"It is hoped that the ICC WC will increase the profile and competitiveness of the women's game outside of World Cup years, as it guarantees a regular and balanced programme of ODI cricket, with more countries involved than ever before.
"It is exciting that England Women will be involved in the first round of these matches and for them to be streamed live via the ECB's YouTube channel allows cricket fans across the world to tune in and watch the action unfold."
Following the three ODIs against India, England will welcome South Africa women for a three match NatWest Twenty20 International series. All three matches will be shown live on Sky Sports, with the third match on Sunday September 7 being played before the men's NatWest T20 International between England and India at Edgbaston.
The Essex County Ground in Chelmsford will host the first IT20 on Monday, September 1 and the County Ground, Northampton, will be the venue for second game on Wednesday, September 3.

The U.S. unemployment rate has fallen to 6.1%, but among the states there remains a wide variation in the state of the job market.
Via Deutsche Bank's Torsten Slok, here's a nice chart ranking the states from the worst unemployment rate to the best unemployment rate.
As you can see, the worst in the country are Rhode Island, Nevada, and Kentucky. The difference between the red and the blue bars shows how much each state has improved since the worst of the recession. Both Ohio and Pennsylvania are huge gainers by that measure.

"If you establish a democracy, you must in due time reap the fruits of a democracy. You will in due season have great impatience of the public burdens, combined in due season with great increase of the public expenditure. You will in due season have wars entered into from passion and not from reason; and you will in due season submit to peace ignominiously sought and ignominiously obtained, which will diminish your authority and perhaps endanger your independence. You will in due season find your property is less valueable, and your freedom less complete." ~ Benjamin Disraeli
