In the Greek town of Aphidal, people have stopped paying road fees. In Athens, bus and metro riders are refusing to cough up the price of a ticket. On Feb. 23, 250,000 Greek protesters jammed the streets outside the nation's parliament.
The Portuguese nominated the protest song "A Luta E' Alegria" (The Struggle is Joy) for the Eurovision song contest and, when judges ignored it, walked out in protest. They also put 300,000 people into the streets of the country's major cities on Mar. 12.
Liverpool bailed from a Conservative-Liberal scheme to supplement government funding with private funding when it found there wasn't any of either, and the British Toilet Association protested the closure of 1,000 public bathrooms across the country.
In ways big and small, Europeans from Greece to Portugal, from Britain to Bavaria are registering their growing anger with the relentless assault inflicted by government-imposed austerity programs.
Wages, working conditions and pensions that unions successfully fought for over the past half century are threatened by the collapse of banking systems caught up in a decade-long orgy of speculation that the average European neither took part in, nor profited from. Even the so-called "well off" workers of Bavaria, Germany's industrial juggernaut, have seen their wages, adjusted for inflation, fall 4.5 percent over the past 10 years.
The narrative emanating from EU headquarters in Brussels is that high wages, early retirement, generous benefits, and a "lack of competition" has led to the current crisis that has several countries on the verge of bankruptcy, including Ireland, Greece, Portugal and Spain. Now, claim the "virtuous countries"—Germany, the Netherlands, and Finland—it is time for these spendthrift wastrels to pay the piper or, as German Chancellor Andrea Merkel says, "do their homework."
It is an interesting story, a sort of Grimm's fairly tale for the 21st century, but it bears about as much resemblance to the cause of the crisis as Cinderella's fairy godmother does to the International Monetary Fund (IMF).
While each country has its own particular conditions, there is a common thread that underlines the current crisis. Starting early in the decade, banks and financial houses flooded real estate markets with money, fueling a speculation explosion that inflated an enormous bubble. In climate and culture, Spain and Ireland may be very different places, but housing prices rocketed 500 percent in both countries.
The money was virtually free, with low interest rates on the bank side, and cozy tax deals cut between speculators and politicians on the other. That kept the cash within a small circle of investors. While Bavarian workers were watching their pay fall, German banks were taking in record profits and shoveling yet more capital into the real estate bubbles in Ireland and Spain. The level of debt eventually approached the grotesque. Ireland's bank debts, if translated into dollars, would be the equal of $10 trillion.
The Wall Street implosion in 2008 sent shock waves around the world and popped bubbles all over Europe. While nations on the periphery of the European Union (EU) tanked first—Iceland, Ireland, Latvia, Romania, Hungry, and Greece, economies at the heart of the EU—Britain, Spain, Italy, and Portugal—were also shaken. According to the Financial Times (FT), total claims by European banks on the Greek, Irish, Italian, Spanish and Portuguese debts alone are $2.4 trillion.
The European Union's (EU) cure for the crisis is a formula with a long and troubled history, and one that has sowed several decades of falling living standards and frozen economies when it was applied to Latin America some 30 years ago. In simple terms, it is austerity, austerity and more austerity until the bank debts are paid off.
There are similarities between the current European crisis and the 1981 Latin American debt crisis. "In both cases debts were issued in a currency over which borrowing countries had no control," says the FT's John Rathbone. For Latin America it was the dollar, for Europe the Euro. Secondly, there was first a period of easy credit, followed by a worldwide recession.
Bailouts were tied to the so-called "Washington Consensus" that demanded privatization, massive cuts in social services, wage reductions, and government austerity. The results were disastrous. As public health programs were eviscerated, diseases like cholera reappeared. As education budgets were slashed, illiteracy increased. And as public works projects vanished, joblessness went up and wages went down.
"It took several years to realize that deflating wages and shrinking economies were inconsistent with being able to fully pay off debts," notes Rathbone. And yet the "virtuous" EU countries are applying almost exactly the same formula to the current debt crisis in Europe.
For instance, the EU and the IMF agreed to bail out Ireland's banks for $114 billion, but only if the Irish cut $4 billion over the next four years, raised payroll taxes 41 percent, cut old age pensions, increased the retirement age, slashed social spending, and privatized many public services. When Ireland recently asked for a reduction in the onerous interest rate for this bailout, the EU agreed to lower it 1 percent and spread out the payments, but only on the condition of yet more austerity measures and an increase in Ireland's corporate tax rate. The newly elected Fine Gael/Labor government refused.
To pay back its own $152 billion bailout, however, the Greek government took the deal. But the price is more austerity and an agreement to sell off almost $70 billion in government properties, including some islands and many of the Olympic games sites.
But the "deal" will hardly repay the debt. Unemployment in Greece is 15 percent, and as high as 35 percent among the young. Wages have fallen 20 percent, pensions have been cut, and rates for public services hiked. Growth is expected to fall 3.4 percent this year, which means that Greece's debt burden is projected to increase from 127 percent of GDP to 160 percent of GDP by 2013. "Your debt will continue to increase as long as your growth rate is below the interest rate you are paying," economist Peter Westaway told the New York Times.
Austerity measures in Portugal and Spain have also cut deeply into the average person's income and made life measurably harder. In Spain, more than one in five workers are unemployed, and consumer spending is sharply off, dropping by a third this past holiday season. Portugal is actually in worse shape. It has one of the slowest economic growth rates in Europe, a dead-in-the-water export industry, and a youth unemployment rate of over 30 percent.
In Britain, the Conservative-Liberal government has cut almost $130 billion from the budget and lobbied for what it calls the "Big Society." The latter is similar to George H.W. Bush's "thousand points of light" and envisions a world in which private industry and volunteerism replaces government-funded programs. The actual result has been the closure of libraries, senior centers, public pools, youth programs, and public toilets. The cutbacks have been most deeply felt in poorer areas of the country—those that traditionally vote Labor, as cynics are wont to point out—but they have also taken a bite out of the Conservative Party's heartland, the Midlands.
Conservative voters have organized demonstrations to save libraries in staid communities like Charlbury and to protest turning public woodlands over to private developers. According to retired financial officer Barbara Allison, there are 54 local voluntary organizations that run programs like meals on wheels in Charlbury. "We're already devoting an awful lot of our time to charity and volunteers," she told the FT. "Am I not doing enough? Is [Conservative Prime Minister] David Cameron going to volunteer?" In any case, as Labor Party leader Ed Milliband points out, how does Cameron expect people "to volunteer at the local library when it is being shut down?"
U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner strongly endorsed the Cameron program last month and said that he "did not see much risk" that the cutbacks would impede growth. But even the IMF warns that the formula of treating debt as the central problem in the middle of an economic recession has drawbacks. This past October an IMF study concluded "the idea that fiscal austerity stimulates economic activity in the short term finds little support in the data."
But a massive program of privatization does mean enormous windfall profits for private investors and the banks and financial institutions that finance the purchase of everything from soccer fields to national parks. Those profits, in turn, fuel political machines that use money and media to dominate the narrative that greedy pensioners, lay-about teachers, and free loaders are the problem. And austerity is the solution.
But increasingly people are not buying the message, and from Athens to Wisconsin they are taking their reservations to the streets. The crowd in Charlbury was a modest 200, and the tone polite. In Athens the demonstration drew 250,000 and people chanted "Kleftes," or "thieves." But the message in both places is much the same: we have had enough.
A bus driver in Athens told Australian journalist Kia Mistiles that his wages had been cut from 1800 Euros ($2500) a month to 1200 Euros ($1660). "There are more cuts coming into effect in the next three months, that's why the protests are heating up. I am worried that my wages will be cut to 800 Euros ($1110) a month, and if that happens I don't know how I will survive."
But he has a plan. "The situation is reaching a climax," he told Mistiles, "because working people know that the austerity measures go too far, and with the final rollout, they can't survive. So there is nothing to do but protest," adding, "You wait until next summer. The situation in Greece will explode."
It is unlikely that Greece will be alone.

ThePirateBay.org leader Gottfrid Svartholm Warg, speaking to Swedish newspaper The Local, told recording industry lawyers to ???go screw themselves??? in response to the IFPI??™s Monday demands for $2.5 million in compensatory damages.
The damage figure comes as part of the latest round in the ongoing legal saga surrounding The Pirate Bay and its leadership, which includes Svartholm, as well as co-founder Peter ???Brokep??? Sunde and administrators Fredrik Neij, among others. The four were indicted late last January on conspiracy charges, for the site??™s role in facilitating piracy for 24 music albums, nine films, and four computer games.
Svartholm says he and his colleagues laughed at the claimed amount of damages, which he thinks were calculated by multiplying the number of the number of properties in the indictment times the number of times they were downloaded. This is wildly unrealistic, says Svartholm, because most downloaders would not have paid full price for an album in the first place.
According to Swedish IFPI chapter head Lars Gustaffson, the $2.5 million claim is ???based on the albums which the prosecutor has included in his indictment. The injury to the record companies, the artists, and the copyright holders caused by The Pirate Bay??™s illegal activity is many times greater.???
???As usual, we??™re not too concerned,??? said Svartholm. ???[The IFPI??™s] numbers are pure fantasy.???
Despite continually finding itself under fire for digital piracy, The Pirate Bay has seen an increasing amount of use as a legitimate channel for artists and producers looking to experiment with legal BitTorrent distribution: Trent Reznor famously uploaded part of his Creative Commons-licensed Ghosts I-IV to The Pirate Bay earlier this month ??" earning back $1.6 million in the first week ??" and The League of Noble Peers likely earned back all its production costs after experimenting with a novel donation model for its freely-available Steal This Film II.

Games/Om 2007.2
From Openmoko
TODO: Download? (See: To-Do List) |
Om 2007.2 |
I've been literally playing with my Moko lately, and figured I'd put fingers to keyboard with a little overview. Some of this is just stubs, and some are more informative. The first round of this is a recent (Jan?) build of OM.
Contents |
Black Box
Played on a checkerboard type grid. The central board is where the discs(?) are hiding. There is some information displayed surrounding the board, in a flap like extension of the board. More research needed.
A classic bridge building game, I think. A bunch of circles (islands?) populate the playing area, with the inside of each circle denoting how many connections that circle supports. You can't cross connections, and only two connections are permitted directly between each pair of circles. Connect pairs by dragging a connection between them. Drag a third time to reset connections to zero. Seems to "get mad" sometimes, and turns a circle red and stops allowing any drawing, and means you have to restart that map. Overall fun and easy to play.
Giant cube rolls around, picking up blue paint and depositing it on different squares. The objective is to completely paint cube.
Grid of numbers, which you are allowed to pick in pairs. Goal is apparently to use all of the pairs up with none left over. More research needed.
One of those little moving tile puzzles from when you were a kid. Features 15 tiles which interlock, with one free space so that you can slide the tiles around. Goal is to arrange the numbers from lowest to highest, starting with the top left and then going left to right and then down each row. Lots of fun.
Grid with a picture, which shows how the "flipping" works. Tiles are two sided, with a grey and a white side, and clicking "flips" the tile. The goal is to have all the tiles with their white side up.
Akin to Mastermind. You are trying to figure out the 4 choices, in the correct order, from a possible choice of 6 different colored pegs. The pegs may be repeated. Each "guess" results in clues -- black pegs mean correct color and position, white pegs denote proper color in the wrong position. You drag a color to the position you want to try -- either from a color palette on the side, or from another guessed peg. Click on the 4 small side pegs to see the results of your guess. 10 guesses to get it right. Very good, quite playable.
Played in a crossword like grid, there are diamonds, mines and dotted circles scattered around the board. Mines kill you, diamonds are the treasure you seek. The dotted circles capture you, as the name of the game implies, from your inertia, as do walls. The surface is akin to ice, in that if you start to move, you'll continue to do so until you stop. Trickier then it seems at first glance, it's good for a few minutes of fun.
Based on eight-queens chess puzzle. You need to place the bulbs so there is light on entire board. In addition there are black squares that stops light and black squares with numbers, this number says how many bulbs must be placed around that square.
The classic computer science problem - given a map with n areas and 4 colors, paint the areas in such a way such that no two adjoining areas have the same color. Simply drag colors from the pre-existing areas to color new areas. If you color an area wrong, just drag the new replacement on top. Easy to play, and can be entertaining.
Ever heard of Minesweeper? Same game, different name. I haven't figured out how to mark mines, but other then that, this is a great timewaster.
Arrange the grid of pipes so that every blue box is connected to the black box in the center. Rotate any element by taping on it.
A variation of Net, this time the tiles around the source slide around, and walls prevent direct connections between some adjacent tiles. More involved then Net, but very playable and still fun.
Also known as Nonogram, the goal of the game is to reconstruct the pattern on the grid from the description. Every number stands for a continuous line in the respective row or column.
While remaining playable the game gets a lot harder without a right mouse button because one can't mark empty cells.
I played this game as Hi-Q (or some similar name. In the rough shape of a plus sign, you are supposed to use one peg to jump another peg. While this is easy to understand, you are supposed to have as few pegs remaining when you are done as possible. Simply drag to jump pegs. Playable, and still fun, after all these years.
Rect is a rectangle game, where you are trying to enclose a certain square (with a number on it) with that number of total squares. I haven't figured out all of the restrictions, but it's a good and simple game.
Same Game
3 different color tiles are combined. Goal is to eliminate all of the tiles, but you can only eliminate tiles where there are 2 or more of the same color adjacent to each other. As you eliminate some tiles, remaining ones "collapse" together.
Variation of Fifteen, but the tiles all slide horizontal or vertically in a row.
Every square needs a slant (line) adding, touch once to point it one way, a second time to point the other way, a third to clear. Numbered circles need that many lines ending in them. The lines must not form loops.
Sudoku game. No Idea how to get the numbers in.
Grid, where you have to layout tents. Numbers along the side tell you how many tents go in each row/column, and there are trees where you can't place tents. Simple, yet can be fun.
More research needed.
Lines are all tangled up between various points. Your job is to untangle the web, ensuring that no lines cross between the points. Mostly entertaining, but picking the point with your finger can be a little fiddly.

Speeding Through History
Text by Damon Lee
When you've spent nearly 60 years selling racing and street rod parts for a living, what do you do for fun? If you're "Speedy" Bill Smith, you collect more racing and street rod parts – plus cars, engines, toys and every other form of automotive artifact you can imagine. Then you share that collection with fellow car enthusiasts in one of the most spectacular automotive museums anywhere.
The Smith Collection Museum of American Speed is "Speedy" Bill Smith's monument to the pursuit of performance. Located in Lincoln, Nebraska, the three-story, 135,000 square-foot facility is appropriately situated next to Speedway Motors – the business Smith founded and has run since 1952. The success of Speedway Motors has no doubt allowed Smith's collection to grow to its current scale, but his quest to preserve the artifacts of automotive performance is a passion that predates the business.
An Early Appreciation
Smith learned early the value of hard work. As a teenager in the 1940s, he earned spending money and learned about cars by buying, fixing and selling Model T Fords. His wheeling and dealing turned up a few pieces of early speed equipment – including a Hal overhead-cam conversion for a Model A engine. Smith admired the ingenuity and engineering in the Hal piece and quickly developed an appreciation for early speed parts manufactured by other aftermarket pioneers, like Robert Roof, Rajo and Riley.
"When you consider what those guys did, it was really amazing," Smith says. "They didn't have much money or the backing of some big corporation, but they had the desire and resourcefulness to create products that made mass-produced engines more powerful and efficient. These guys literally laid the groundwork for the entire performance aftermarket industry."
Smith's appreciation was more than academic – he put his performance interests to the test on local dirt oval racetracks. A short stint racing motorcycles led Smith to some seat time in roaring roadster racers, but, ultimately, he found his niche as a car builder and owner. He spent most of his spare time during high school and college pursing his racing interests.
Mixing Business and Pleasure
Though he studied to be an educator at Nebraska Wesleyan University, "Speedy" Bill ultimately followed his passion for performance by opening Speedway Motors. Using a $300 loan from his wife, Joyce, Smith started the business in a humble 20x20 foot building near downtown Lincoln. The city was not an ideal geographical locale for a speed shop, but Smith managed to steadily grow the business. His racing efforts gave Speedway Motors much-needed exposure and even some cash earned by winning races. Additional growth came by offering mail-order service to customers beyond the city and state borders.
Campaigning race cars and promoting Speedway Motors took Smith to all corners of the country in the ensuing decades. In those travels, he managed to unearth many more treasures to add to his collection. "Back in the 1950s, '60s and '70s, a lot of these old parts and engines were considered obsolete junk," Smith says. "People were throwing some of this stuff away. But I could see the historical value and significance in these items. I felt it was important to save and preserve them so we would have a record of where the industry came from."
As Smith's stockpile of engines and parts grew, his collecting became more deliberate. Scouring national classified ads and attending auctions were now part of the game. He and Joyce began making the annual pilgrimage to swap meets like Hershey and chased countless leads, hunting for rare parts and cars. A network of friends kept their eyes and ears open for clues to even more elusive treasures. News of Smith's growing collection eventually spread to other racers and collectors who would often offer up their own artifacts. The more he collected, the more Smith mastered the art of being in the right place at the right time.
Creating a Museum
Though bits and pieces of Smith's collection ended up on display in the Speedway Motors showroom, a good portion of it was tucked away in warehouses and storage facilities. "Speedy" Bill and Joyce knew their treasures deserved a better fate. In 1992, they formally established the Smith Collection Museum of American Speed as a non-profit corporation with 501(c)(3) status. The museum initially took shape in a portion of the Speedway Motors warehouse, moving to its current location in 2000, when the company relocated to a new corporate campus in west Lincoln.
It's difficult to describe in words the Smith Collection's true scope. It covers the full spectrum of racing and hot rodding, from the earliest days of automotive competition right up through the current era. There's a strong focus on technology, as the museum boasts the world's largest collection of vintage and exotic racing engines (600 and counting), not to mention an entire room devoted to the great racing engines of Harry Miller and Fred Offenhauser. A spectacular selection of race cars – including the Johnny Lightning Lola-Colt Indy car and David Pearson's Woods Brothers NASCAR Mercury – helps to illustrate where many of the engines once resided.
There's more than just racing engines and cars, though. In the room known as Bill's Garage, you'll find a variety of street rods, a 1930 Model J Duesenberg, and one of the handful of Tuckers ever made. A walk up to the second floor brings you to a fantastic display of Model T cars, engines and accessories, plus exhibits showcasing Midget race cars and Flathead Ford V8 engines and accessories.
The museum's collection of more than 500 vintage pedal cars also begins on the second level, spilling up onto a third story packed with all manner of automotive toys and games. Mix in displays of vintage lunch boxes, autographed guitars and automotive-themed album covers and you've got a spectacle that holds something of interest for just about everyone. Guided tours of the museum take a little more than two hours, but most car enthusiasts could spend two days in the place and still not soak everything up.
The accompanying photos offer a quick glimpse into "Speedy" Bill and Joyce Smith's amazing collection, but there's nothing that matches the thrill of experiencing the Smith Collection Museum of American Speed in person. The museum is open for weekly tours on Fridays at 2 p.m. from October through April; from May through September there are daily 2 p.m. tours Monday through Friday. Admission for all tours is just $10, and the museum is also available for special club and group events throughout the year.
Museum of American Speed
Stepping into the expansive Smith Collection Museum of American Speed is like tracing a timeline of racing and hot rodding in the United States.
The Miller Gallery showcases the dominating racing engines built by Harry Miller and Fred Offenhauser. An exploded view of a dual-overhead-cam Studebaker V-8 Indy engine – designed by Miller's Leo Goosen – is one of the highlights.
The Johnny Lightning Special is one of the more memorable Indy cars of the past four decades. Driven by racing greats like Al Unser and Sammy Sessions, the car had a total of seven USAC National Championship wins in four years of competition in the late-1960s and early-1970s.
Flathead Ford V-8s were the predominant hot rod engines in the 1940s and 1950s and are well represented in the museum. Shown here is a huge selection of the many aftermarket intake manifolds made for Flatheads, as well as some of the performance cylinder heads.
Two examples of great Ford V-8s sit side-by-side – a fuel-injected, Ardun-head Flathead, and a 1964-vintage SOHC 427 "Cammer" engine.
A trio of T-based hot rods greets visitors in Bill's Garage. Among them are a clone of Ed Roth's famous Outlaw, the Total Performance Tangerine T, and the original Red Baron show rod.
Ever wonder what a well-equipped race shop looked like in the late 1920s? This display offers some insight, with a 1929 Indy racer as its centerpiece.
Among the many engines in the Indianapolis pit area is this 1930 Duesenberg single-overhead-cam example.
In addition to "putting America on wheels," the Ford Model T helped create the automotive aftermarket, as evidenced by the museum's large collection of T accessories.
The museum's extensive collection of pedal cars and automotive toys is nothing short of incredible.
NASCAR fans are sure to recall the famous finish of the 1976 Daytona 500, when Richard Petty and David Pearson tangled on the last lap. This is the restored Mercury that Pearson limped across the finish line to victory.
A realistic Midget racing display depicts Kansas City's Olympic Stadium in the late-'40s, with an orange Offy-powered Kurtis Midget (right) battling an Elto competitor.
The history of hot rodding is tied largely to dry lakes racing done in modified Model T roadsters like this 1923 built by Art Gerrick in the early 1950s. It's powered by a Model T engine with a Rajo head and Winfield carbs.
"Speedy" Bill Smith and his wife, Joyce, are seen here in the museum's Indy pit area with their four sons (from left), Clay, Carson, Craig and Jason. Each family member is involved in the Speedway Motors business, as well as the Museum of American Speed.=

I had been seeing some really amazing photos of some barely seared tuna steaks around the blog sphere and I just had to try it. I like a nice barely seared beef steak and I was wondering what a tuna steak would be like. A few of the tuna steaks that I saw were crusted in sesame seeds which sounded pretty interesting. The tuna was really easy to make. You just crust the steak with sesame seeds and sear it for a few minutes on either side. You want to be careful not to over cook it as fully cooked tuna can be a bit dry. The seared tuna steak was really good. It was nice and moist and tender. The sesame seeds added a nice contrast in texture. I served the sesame crusted tuna on rice with some orange teriyaki sauce and some asparagus on the side.
Sesame Crusted Ahi Tuna Steak
- 1 5 ounce ahi tuna steak
- 2 tablespoons white sesame seeds (toasted)
- 2 tablespoons black sesame seeds (toasted)
- 1 tablespoon oil
- Press the tuna steak into the sesame seeds to coat.
- Heat the oil in a pan.
- Fry the tuna steak for 2 minutes per side.

Upon further review, giant sequoia tops a neighbor
FRESNO, Calif. (AP) — Deep in the Sierra Nevada, the famous General Grant giant sequoia tree is suffering its loss of stature in silence. What once was the world's No. 2 biggest tree has been supplanted thanks to the most comprehensive measurements taken of the largest living things on Earth.
The new No. 2 is The President, a 54,000-cubic-foot gargantuan not far from the Grant in Sequoia National Park. After 3,240 years, the giant sequoia still is growing wider at a consistent rate, which may be what most surprised the scientists examining how the sequoias and coastal redwoods will be affected by climate change and whether these trees have a role to play in combatting it.
"I consider it to be the greatest tree in all of the mountains of the world," said Stephen Sillett, a redwood researcher whose team from Humboldt State University is seeking to mathematically assess the potential of California's iconic trees to absorb planet-warming carbon dioxide.
The researchers are a part of the 10-year Redwoods and Climate Change Initiative funded by the Save the Redwoods League in San Francisco. The measurements of The President, reported in the current National Geographic, dispelled the previous notion that the big trees grow more slowly in old age.
It means, the experts say, the amount of carbon dioxide they absorb during photosynthesis continues to increase over their lifetimes.
In addition to painstaking measurements of every branch and twig, the team took 15 half-centimeter-wide core samples of The President to determine its growth rate, which they learned was stunted in the abnormally cold year of 1580 when temperatures in the Sierra hovered near freezing even in the summer and the trees remained dormant.
But that was an anomaly, Sillett said. The President adds about one cubic meter of wood a year during its short six-month growing season, making it one of the fastest-growing trees in the world. Its 2 billion leaves are thought to be the most of any tree on the planet, which would also make it one of the most efficient at transforming carbon dioxide into nourishing sugars during photosynthesis.
"We're not going to save the world with any one strategy, but part of the value of these great trees is this contribution and we're trying to get a handle on the math behind that," Sillett said.
After the equivalent of 32 working days dangling from ropes in The President, Sillett's team is closer to having a mathematical equation to determine its carbon conversion potential, as it has done with some less famous coastal redwoods. The team has analyzed a representative sample that can be used to model the capacity of the state's signature trees.
More immediately, however, the new measurements could lead to a changing of the guard in the land of giant sequoias. The park would have to update signs and brochures — and someone is going to have to correct the Wikipedia entry for "List of largest giant sequoias," which still has The President at No. 3.
Now at 93 feet in circumference and with 45,000 cubic feet of trunk volume and another 9,000 cubic feet in its branches, the tree named for President Warren G. Harding is about 15 percent larger than Grant, also known as America's Christmas Tree. Sliced into one-foot by one-foot cubes, The President would cover a football field.
Giant sequoias grow so big and for so long because their wood is resistant to the pests and disease that dwarf the lifespan of other trees, and their thick bark makes them impervious to fast-moving fire.
It's that resiliency that makes sequoias and their taller coastal redwood cousin worthy of intensive protections — and even candidates for cultivation to pull carbon from an increasingly warming atmosphere, Sillett said. Unlike white firs, which easily die and decay to send decomposing carbon back into the air, rot-resistant redwoods stay solid for hundreds of years after they fall.
Though sequoias are native to California, early settlers traveled with seedlings back to the British Isles and New Zealand, where a 15-foot diameter sequoia that is the world's biggest planted tree took root in 1850. Part of Sillett's studies involves modeling the potential growth rate of cultivated sequoia forests to determine over time how much carbon sequestering might increase.
All of that led him to a spot 7,000 feet high in the Sierra and to The President, which he calls "the ultimate example of a giant sequoia." Compared to the other giants whose silhouettes are bedraggled by lightning strikes, The President's crown is large with burly branches that are themselves as large as tree trunks.
The world's biggest tree is still the nearby General Sherman with about 2,000 cubic feet more volume than the President, but to Sillett it's not a contest.
"They're all superlative in their own way," Sillett said.

A Museum of One's Own: Private Collecting, Public Gift
Anne Higonnet
When walking around galleries and museums, the immediate concern is for the works that line the walls and plinths, however Higonnet explores her fascination with "collections", and how an individual's taste within a contemporary era are captured in personal art ensembles.
The images complement the historical context of the text, including photographs of the works in their current locations. The inclusion of the pieces within the collection as a whole is of utmost importance to Higonnet. Their dedicated owners individually chose them for their significance, and being able to see the pieces in their historical resting places is an intriguing touch.
Differing from other coffee-table style art books in the way that Higonnet explores the ideas and processes behind collecting rather than impressive visuals, means the book does lack the striking full-page photographs that some look for in a book of this nature. However, the concept of private made public is a captivating one, very much prevalent today. Perhaps, this will revive the last art of collecting.

Egyptian TV station suspends satirist Bassem Youssef's show
A private Egyptian TV station stopped the airing of the latest episode of a widely popular political satire program Friday after it came under fire for mocking the ultra nationalist, pro-military fervor gripping the country.
CBC announced the program by Bassem Youssef, often compared to U.S. comedian Jon Stewart, would not be shown because the satirist and his producer violated its editorial policies. The announcement came just minutes before Youssef's show "El-Bernameg," or "The Program" in Arabic, was to air Friday night.
A broadcaster read a statement issued by the station's board of directors saying that Youssef and the producer "insist on continuing to not commit to the editorial policy" of CBC, which he said are part of the contract.
The pre-recorded weekly program returned to air last week after a four-month hiatus that happened as Egypt's military toppled Islamist President Mohammed Mursi after massive protests against his government. Youssef often mocked Mursi on the program, galvanizing public disenchantment with the leader.
His show last week strongly mocked the military fever now gripping Egypt, as well as poked fun at military chief Gen. Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi.
Military supporters immediately filed legal complaints against the show. CBC, whose programming largely supported the coup, distanced itself from the program's content. The channel said supports national sentiment and is "keen on not using phrases and innuendos that may lead to mocking national sentiment or symbols of the Egyptian state."
It did, however, say at the time it was committed to freedom of expression. But the statement appeared to dump any criticism of the show on Youssef and serve as a warning to the satirist.
Those who watched the pre-recorded episode set to be aired Friday night said Youssef spent a large segment of the program mocking CBC, as well as its editorial policies, the statement it put out after the show, and its choice of soap operas. It also made fun of the previous episode that came under fire.
Critics of Youssef staged a protest outside the theater where he was recording his program Wednesday and scuffled with his supporters. Riot police broke up the crowd.
Egypt's prosecutors launched investigations into complaints about Youssef's show, on accusations he disrupted public order and mocked Egypt and its military leaders. Youssef had been subjected to similar litigation when Mursi was in power. Mursi's supporters had filed complaints about his program, accusing him of insulting the president and Islam, leading to him once being briefly detained.
On Friday, the station's statement said after reviewing the content of last week's episode, it deemed the program violated its instructions.
"After the angry reaction following the last episode, we notified the presenter and producer of the program on the need to abide by the guidelines in the statement" issued earlier, it said. The station also said that Youssef violated financial commitments, failed to live to his commitments in the first season and demanded more money.
The suspension provoked immediate angry reaction, mostly directed at CBC. One group- the June 30 Front - called for a boycott of the station, hailing Youssef as a "dreamer of freedom" who draws a smile on the face of Egyptians. Others criticized the new sense of fear about expressing opinions in Egypt that run counter to the military.
Youssef had had disputes with the station before. In his first episode after joining the station at the height of the Mursi rule, Youssef mocked it for being stacked with former supporters of the regime of Hosni Mubarak. He also made fun of its claims of having revolutionary credentials.
Youssef angered one of the station's star broadcasters so much that he threatened to take legal action against him. The station didn't air the following episode, though the show returned a week later.
Youssef left Egypt to the United Arab Emirates on Friday. It was not clear if he was in the Gulf state on a business or private trip.

MEDFORD, Mass.—Colleges are paying students to take a year off after high school to travel, volunteer or do internships so that students of all income brackets can benefit from "gap years."
A new program at Tufts University and existing ones at a handful of other schools aim to remove the financial barriers that can keep cash-strapped students from exploring different communities and challenge their comfort zones before jumping right into college.
The gap year program starting this fall at Tufts will pay for housing, airfare and even visa fees, which can often add up to $30,000 or more.
Although gap years are more popular in Europe, they have started to gain traction in the United States. About 40,000 Americans participated in gap year programs in 2013, an increase of nearly 20 percent since 2006, according to data gathered by a nonprofit called the American Gap Year Association.
In 2009, Princeton University began offering applicants gap-year aid based on need. Nearly 100 students have participated, volunteering in Brazil, China, India, Peru and Senegal.
The University of North Carolina offers $7,500 to gap year applicants, while students at Wisconsin's St. Norbert College can receive financial aid based on need, although airfare isn't covered.
Lydia Collins, a 19-year-old Tufts freshman from Evanston, Ill., said she took a gap year because she wanted to see what was outside of the classroom before committing to four more years of school.
"A lot of kids are very burnt out after high school," Collins said. "Taking this time to be with yourself and see yourself in a new community and light will only help you to succeed in college."
Collins worked in microfinance in Ecuador through the poverty-fighting group Global Citizen and said the experience inspired her to pursue international relations, something she would not have known about beforehand.
Students who take part are able to see the world beyond the bubble they grew up in and return to school with a better perspective of their future, said Holly Bull, president of the Center of Interim Programs, which counsels students on taking gap years. Bull said the benefit of the structured time away from school is too valuable to exclude lower-income students.
"Students return to the classroom more focused, independent and confident," said Bull, who took a gap year herself to Hawaii and Greece. She said the students also tend to have less trouble adjusting to dorm life.
Jeremy Rotblat, a 19-year-old Princeton freshman from Cherry Hill, N.J., said his experience volunteering at a hospital in Senegal better prepared him for college.
"This experience taught me that everything I learn in the classroom will be able to help me when I leave Princeton," Rotblat said. "It is easy at times to question the purpose behind all the school work. But seeing the value firsthand encourages me to push myself academically."
Students selected for Tufts' 1+4 program will be able to defer their admission for a year while still remaining tied to the university through video chat and email. Tufts is planning to work with organizations including Global Citizen, City Year and Lift — which offer volunteering positions in areas such as education, economics, health and the environment — to create packages that fit students' financial needs, including travel and living costs.
Patrick Callan, founding president of the National Center for Public Policy and Higher Education, applauds the gap year experience but said structure is key.
"Sometimes, for less motivated students, taking a year off could lead to them never coming back," he said, adding that students that go in without concrete goals can be sidetracked from their studies. "You need to come in having a plan."
For Collins, working in a foreign country away from her family and friends was a reality check.
"After that experience," she said, "I can definitely take on college. It's nothing now."

Eyelid Lacerations
What are eyelid lacerations?
Eyelid lacerations are cuts to the eyelid caused by trauma. Your child's healthcare provider will examine the eye closely to make sure there is no damage to the eye itself. An ophthalmologist (doctor who specializes in comprehensive eye care) may also examine your child for further evaluation of the eye.
Treatment for eyelid lacerations
Specific treatment for eyelid lacerations will be determined by your child's healthcare provider based on:
Your child's age, overall health, and medical history
Extent of the injury
Your child's tolerance for specific medications, procedures, or therapies
Expectations for the course of the injury
Your opinion or preference
Treatment may include:
If the laceration is simple, as determined by your child's healthcare provider, the cut will be sutured (stitched). Local anesthetic drops may be placed in the eye and injected into the tissue prior to the suturing. The sutures will usually be taken out five to seven days after the injury.
Sedation or general anesthesia may be needed for younger, uncooperative children.
For larger lacerations, or if there is any involvement of the eye, an ophthalmologist may be consulted to evaluate and treat the wound.

For this week's Tuesdays with Dorie, Lyb of And then I do the dishes selected Chocolate Armagnac Cake - The Cake That Got Me Fired on pages 279-281 of Dorie's book, Baking: From My Home to Yours. Check our Lyb's site for the recipe or get the book.
While baking in a top restaurant, Dorie got bored and changed up one of the restaurant's classic recipes. She was fired for "creative subordination!"
I might get fired too...for substituting too many things! I don't drink so I used orange juice instead of the armagnac...don't worry, I didn't try to flambe my OJ! :) I made 1/4 of the recipe. Since it was just for me, I skipped the glaze because I'm actually not the biggest fan of chocolate frosting. I dusted it with a heavy East Coast-type snow of powdered sugar instead.
P.S. It's Square Root Day! (3/3/09 = 3x3=9) I'm a closeted math geek and think it is way cool. It's also Girls' Day in Japan!

Spring may have been a little slow in arriving but it is certainly here now. At the farmers market this weekend I found some of the first of the locally grown asparagus. In addition to the asparagus I found some ramps and some morel mushrooms both of which I had been wanting to try. Ramps , or wild leeks are a member of the onion family and they are commonly described as tasting like a cross between onions and garlic. Given that I use onions and garlic so commonly in my cooking, I just had to try the ramps.
One of my favorite ways to welcome in Springs fresh produce is with an asparagus quiche . I figured that an asparagus quiche with morel mushrooms and ramps would be tasty indeed. I had been wanting to try a brown rice crust for a quiche for a while now and this seemed like the perfect opportunity. The brown rice crust sounded lighter and healthier than the more standard pie pastry crust. The pictures that I had seen of the brown rice crust always looked nice and golden brown and good.
The brown rice crust was really easy to make. It is pretty much just some cooked brown rice, an egg and some cheese that is pre-baked in the pie plate for a few minutes before pouring in the quiche filling and baking the quiche. The quiche was as easy as mixing and baking making this a pretty simple recipe overall. The asparagus, morel mushroom and ramp quiche with a brown rice crust turned out great! The brown rice crust baked up nice and golden brown and it was slightly crispy. I will definitely be using this brown rice crust again. The quiche itself was nice and tasty! It is hard to go wrong with eggs, milk and cheese and the ramps added an amazing aroma and flavour to the quiche. The morel mushrooms were really good, though at the price that I paid for them they will be a special occasion item. This quiche was an amazing way to welcome in Springs bounty this year! Now I need to come up with some more ideas for enjoying ramps while they are in season.
Asparagus, Morel and Ramp Quiche with a Brown Rice Crust
- 2 cups cooked brown rice
- 1/4 cup gruyere (grated)
- 1 egg
- 4 eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup gruyere (grated)
- 1/2 pound morel mushrooms
- 1/2 pound asparagus (cut into 1-inch long pieces and steamed)
- 3 ramps (chopped)
- salt and pepper to taste
- Mix the rice, cheese and egg in a bowl.
- Press the rice mixture into a pie plate, about 1/4 inch thick.
- Bake in a preheated 450F/230C oven until the edges and bottom just start turning golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.
- Mix the eggs, milk, cheese, mushrooms, asparagus and ramps in a bowl and season with salt and pepper.
- Pour the egg mixture into the pie crust.
- Bake in a preheated 375F/190C oven until golden brown and set in the center, about 30-35 minutes.

We are passionate about group sex and exhibitionism in particular. For example, kissing in nature is one of our favorite pastimes. Our ideal would be a man of the same age for this evening between kinky people. As a horny girl, I need a real man to give me orgasms that rock my world. We would prefer to offer you a date at our place and rather on Friday if that suits you. So, we're waiting for your proposals for this hot night. I hope to see you on Placentia! Big kisses! See you later.
A young slut on Catalina Foothills wants a hot encounter
La Korean Escort
First name: Stevia,
Age: 35 yo,
City: Catalina Foothills (AZ)
Hello everyone, my name is Stevia and I am 35 years old. I'm the friendly type, and apparently, according to my past relationships, I'm a real nymphomaniac! Haha, that's funny. I really enjoy showing myself naked in the woods and having my picture taken. But what really gets me going are the reports in atypical places (parking lots, bathrooms, etc.), it's up to you to be innovative on the streets of Catalina Foothills. I would like a guy who is relatively young and, most importantly, has a very large penis in order to give me a lot of sensation since I am quite the difficult libertine. I know how to play with my encounters to tease them. You can set up a date with me, I'm available every afternoon. You can choose the location, but only on Catalina Foothills. In short, to be content in a bed, it is better not to be a novice. You will remember it if you meet my expectations.
I'm looking to meet a libertine in Dayton for some fun with another woman. I'm in an open relationship and enjoy exploring my sexuality
La Korean Escort
First name: Nazia,
Age: 18 yo,
City: Dayton (OH)
We have been practicing libertine dating for a few years now. We sometimes discover new sexual experiences, right now it's swinging. I don't have any physical criteria because it's just for a one night stand... But on the other hand I want a hot guy, he must especially see another man make me orgasm. We prefer to have a date at our apartment but if you want we can move around Dayton and its surroundings. We're mostly available for this future threesome hookup in the early evening. Feel free to contact us if you're interested in having a threesome. We would like to read your comments. Kisses.
Looking for a hot woman for some no strings attached sex with a virile guy in O'Fallon
La Korean Escort
First name: Concepcion,
Age: 49 yo,
City: O'Fallon (MO)
I love sleeping with a young man and dominating him so that I can orgasm. I'm very open-minded when it comes to stimulating you. I'm also quite an expert in lollipops. However, I want a good blowjob for this hot date. I'm giving a rendezvous at the end of the week and rather in the late afternoon. We can meet wherever you want but close to O'Fallon. I like guys who are pretty sexy. I also need a guy with a big dick because otherwise I don't cum. I just want to enjoy myself like never before. I think I'm going to have some hot, naughty moments with you. But before anything else, you have to leave me a message. I hope to meet you soon! Kisses.
A woman on Southfield with a guy here to have a good time
La Korean Escort
First name: Freda,
Age: 22 yo,
City: Southfield (MI)
We can be free at the end of the week for this naughty date in Southfield. We want to see you at our place. I don't have any beauty standards because it's just for a cuckold plan... But I still want a man who is confident, and above all else my man must see another male make me cum. I engage in candaulism because I enjoy sleeping with another lover, but only in front of my husband. I'm extremely greedy when I get laid and I particularly appreciate it when someone nibbles on me for a long time. To join us, you need to send us a little note. We just want to be free from sexual restraints.

Miss McFarling's pattern sold for 75 cents in 1966 but can be found in Etsy shops, on eBay and in vintage pattern shops priced between $7 and $55. |
Martha McFarling Athey Wedding announcement Virginian-Pilot 1966 |
View #4 looks like my sleeve pattern. |
My gown had that typical 70's granny dress look: empire waist, ruffled hem, and full sleeves with wide cuff. Believe it or not, it was inspired by a picture in Bride magazine. (See, they even thought it was a good look!) Momma did her best to replicate it, but that required pulling together parts from various patterns and then creating her own pattern for the train, which really was more of a sweep than full-fledged train.
This looks like the ruffle and overall shape of my dress. |
Finding different kinds of lace was not easy either. We bought from every fabric store in the Tidewater area and even from a shop in Staunton, not far from Harrisonburg where I was in college.
The wide lace was an eye-catcher. We used it on the sleeves and then from the shoulders to the hem. The narrow piece was used down the center, at the empire waist, and for the neck.
I admit to making that veil. It looks hideous now, but the Juliet cap and Anne Boleyn crown were considered quite "mo-derne" in 1973.
Becky, Moi, Ruth, my sister Mary Jollette |
However, I did a better job on the bridesmaids' headpieces. I covered a buckram head band with green voile and lace left over from their dresses (Momma made two of the dresses). To be sassy, I made a fabric bow for the side. Mmm – yeah – Sassy alright!
The 1980s gown
Fast forward ten years to 1983. My sister Mary Jollette too had found her dream dress in a magazine. Fortunately, patterns and lace were more readily available. In fact, the lace matches the inspiration perfectly. The train on her gown was inspired by Princess Diana's train, but not nearly as long.
While the train was important, the big hat defined the 80s. Mary Jollette had fallen in love with a bridal hat in the magazine. Our metropolitan area, despite its many bridal shops and specialty dress shops, didn't have it. Surprisingly, she found the hat in the bridal shop in Harrisonburg.
Momma had requested that Mary Jollette not marry during the school year. But Mary Jollette and Cam wanted to avoid the heat of summer, so April was the date. There were still papers to grade, and I had two babies to care for, so I was no help on that end this time.
Is that orange juice on the sewing machine? I guess Momma needed all the fortification she could get to finish that dress. |

What are your experiences with The Virtual Flute? If you have found this web service helpful in your performances or compositions, or if you would like to provide suggestions for new features or improvements, we would certainly like to hear from you! Also, be sure to browse through the comments of other musicians below. Their experiences demonstrate the range of fingering searches that are possible with The Virtual Flute. There are two ways in which you can post a comment:
Note(s) - D#6
Piece of music - Stravinsky's "Firebird" Suite, flute 1 part
I was playing Stravinsky's "Firebird". It required an acciaccatura from B5 (B above the stave) to E6 (The E above that). It's far too easy to split the last B and slip up to an F#6 instead. This good fingering alleviated the problem, although it's a very sharp D#6.
Note(s) - F6
My problem fingering was a tremolo from F6 (Th 1 3 | 1 D#) to A6 (Th 2 | 1 D#). I searched for a fingering for the F6 which included the keys of the A6. I also ordered the fingerings by playability. This fingering, listed at the top of the search, is comfortable and the tuning is adequate for a tremolo.
Note(s) - F7
In the acoustics lab we searched for fingerings for high F (the fourth one on the flute), ordering the search by playability. This fingering was returned at the top of the search, producing a brilliantly clear F. This finding is useful in contemporary music as this fingering makes the note much easier to play, particularly when pp, than the standard fingering. This new note is playable on flutes with C foot and B foot. It is only easily playable on a flute with a split E mechanism. This fingering is not found in "The Other Flute" by Robert Dick.
I came across a slurred, fast passage which, although was not exposed, was tricky to execute. The passage was: Eb6 - F6 - Eb6 - F6 - Eb6 - D6 -Eb6 - F6 - G6 I searched for fingerings which did not include the tr1, tr2 and gizmo keys. The fingerings I found were useful for the passage: Eb6: Th 1 2 3 | 1 2 3 D# F6: Th 1 2 3 | 1 D# G6: Th 1 2 3 | D# Although these fingerings are simply an overblown first register, I didn't think of it at the time. Finding the fingerings here was easy.
An awkward high passage: Sharp C7 - sharp B6 - E7 - flat D7 - flat E7 - D7 - flat Eb7 - Bb6 I found useful fingerings for most of these notes. Carl Rosman told me I'm the only flute player in history who has ever been able to play this bar.
Piece of music - Chris Dench's "Closing Lemma"
I required a fingering for the final flourish of high notes landing on a sharp E7. I found this flat F7.
Being able to have precise tunings and multiphonic predictions for any given fingering was an incredible timesaver. The piece involves micro-tonal trills and tremolos, timbral and articulation modifications and a number of multiphonics for both flute and clarinet. I only wish similar sites were available for other wind instruments!
Note(s) - B6
This fingering is very good for playing B6 softly.
Note(s) - F#6
This fingering is very good for playing F#6 pp.
Note(s) - B4
When I try this I get an E5. I can force an approximate B4 but I get so much wind noise that it isn't a useful tone. Theory vs. practice?
Note(s) - B4&E5
I agree with both the previous comment and with The Virtual Flute. The B4 is dark, as promised. But it's a useful multiphonic with E5.
This fingering had a far faster and clearer response than even the standard fingering. Also it seemed to requir less lip tension It also seemed to use less air - or at least, I could play it for a longer time.
-Very- awkward to finger, however does play very clearly, and may be useful for it's tuning.
Noticeably flat, but very playable, and thus ideal for short staccato passages when one is often inclined to play sharp anyway.
Piece of music - A#6 to F#6 transition from Moyse Daily Exercises
This fingering does not give F#6 as easily as indicated (2.5 stars). The easiest note is actually A#6 followed by c#5.
Note(s) - D7
Piece of music - D7 - Prokofiev Sonata 1st movement
This alternate fingering is much easier to sound than the standard fingering of Th 3 | 1 2 C
Note(s) - E7
Piece of music - Septet by Thierry Tidro
This fingering is the easiest for sounding E7 in this piece and also gives the greatest possibilities for adjustment of intonation.
Note(s) - E5
Piece of music - Prokofiev Sonata
This fingering is very hard to play since the C#5 minima is so strong and close to E5.
Note(s) - A5
Piece of music - Franck Sonata Movement 1
Use this fingering to get a darker and a more stable pianissimo A5 for the final note of this movement.
Note(s) - B5
Use this fingering to get a darker and a more stable pianissimo B5 for the 2nd last note of this movement.
Note(s) - G#4
i came across this fingering one morning while i was practicing. has a crisp high pitch to it, but isnt over bearingly high.
Note(s) - F#4
Piece of music - African bell carol
Sounds really pretty
Note(s) - D5
Piece of music - Silver Eagle
i hated this piece of music at first, but after a while I finally got used to it. thanks to ya'll. Thank you!
Note(s) - A#6
This is how Pahud is playing A#6 See: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2XMCxcnzhsA
This website is absolutely fantastic. Many thanks !!

Greece To Prosecute Frst Maritime Piracy Case With Evidence Gathered By INTERPOL
Evidence gathered by an INTERPOL Incident Response Team (IRT) following the release of the hijacked oil tanker Irene SL in April 2011 is to be used by Greece in its first maritime piracy prosecution.
The announcement comes during a meeting between Chief of the Hellenic Police Lieutenant General Nikolaos Papagiannopoulos and INTERPOL Secretary General Ronald K. Noble at the world police body's General Secretariat headquarters to identify ways for additional support to be provided to the Greek police.
The IRT, supported by the South African Police Service and in coordination with European Union Naval Force (EU NAVFOR) and INTERTANKO, was deployed to Durban in South Africa to conduct a crime scene investigation and debriefing of the hostages on board the Irene SL, following its release by Somali pirates 58 days after the vessel was hijacked off the coast of Oman.
Several of the crew members on board were also able to identify four of their captors from an INTERPOL photo album on maritime piracy, containing images provided by member states and naval forces operating in the Gulf of Aden and the Western Indian Ocean.
Secretary General Noble said that the case perfectly highlighted the benefits that INTERPOL brings to member countries and how information sharing and a collaborative approach is essential to addressing crime issues anywhere in the world.
"In these times of financial constraint the added value that INTERPOL and its global network brings to individual countries and global security is even clearer," said the INTERPOL Chief.
"INTERPOL will continue to provide every support to Greece, and also calls on the global law enforcement community, countries and regional institutions to identify areas where they can support Greece in meeting the crime challenges which affect us all," added Mr Noble.
Lieutenant General Papagiannopoulos said 'the opportunities for international law enforcement cooperation through INTERPOL help increase the effectiveness of national police services.'
"Today's meeting with Secretary General Noble provided us with the opportunity to explore ways of building on our existing cooperation and to identify ways for future development together," added Mr Papagiannopoulos.
During his visit, Mr Papagiannopoulos – accompanied by Brigadier General Zacharoula Tsirigoti, Director of the International Police Cooperation Directorate, and Brigadier General Dimitrios Sofios, Deputy Director of the Attika Criminal Investigation Department – was also updated and briefed on a range of INTERPOL's tools and services including its global database to enhance police cooperation in areas such as combating illegal immigration and trafficking in human beings.

High up on the Nepalese side of Mount Everest, fresh ice avalanches on Friday made it "almost certain that no one will summit the world's highest mountain from Nepal during this year's climbing season," Reuters writes.
The ice did not injure anyone. But it came crashing through the same area where 16 Sherpa guides died one week ago in an avalanche — the single deadliest day ever known on Everest. In the week since, many of the remaining 400 or so Sherpas have been saying they do not want to climb this year, both out of respect for those who were killed and because they want more insurance and other benefits for their families. NPR's Julie McCarthy detailed the Sherpas' grievances this week onMorning Edition.
Thursday, Nepalese government officials met with Sherpas on Everest to try to persuade them to continue working for the foreign expeditions that have paid tens of thousands of dollars, or more, to climb the mountain.
But on Friday, mountaineer Alan Arnette wrote on the website where he tracks activity on Everest that "teams are leaving — it's over for all. Time to mourn and regroup." On Twitter, he compared the situation on Everest to "an airport with [the] terminal open but runways closed."
While there may be no summit attempts during the April-May climbing season from the Nepalese side of the mountain, National Geographic points out that:
"The northern, Chinese side of the mountain remains open for business. On Thursday, between 50 and 100 climbers were continuing their methodical ascent toward the summit from the north."
The north side has been less popular with climbers in recent decades, National Geographic adds, because the Chinese government has at times banned expeditions. The south side, though, requires expeditions to pass through the treacherous Khumbu icefall — the site of last week's tragedy.
