Sir Paul McCartney to collaborate with Thom Yorke?
- Bang Showbiz
- 3 October 2013
Sir Paul McCartney is being advised by his daughter Stella to collaborate with Thom Yorke, but he's concerned the Radiohead frontman will refuse his offer
Sir Paul McCartney is being advised by his daughter to collaborate with Thom Yorke.
The Beatles legend has been urged by Stella to work with the Radiohead frontman but he admits, despite being keen, he is afraid the 44-year-old singer will turn down his offer because his schedule is too hectic to fit him in.
Speaking to NME magazine, he said: "My daughter Stella is very keen. She's got a project, she keeps saying to me, 'Ring Thom and just go into the studio and just see what you come out with.'
"I'm a bit sort of paranoid to just ring him up. 'Hey Thom, it's Paul here. What do you fancy, what are you doing? Do you fancy writing something?' Just in case he says, 'Er, actually I'm busy'."
However, the 71-year-old music icon insists he'd love to team up with Bob Dylan but is adamant he will never find anyone better than John Lennon.
He explained: "There were big rumours a couple of years ago about me and Bob Dylan writing together, and I've still got that at the back of my mind. I would like to do it. But I'm spoiled for collaborators because I had John. And I've got to be very unrealistic to think I'll find a better collaborator than him."
Sir Paul's upcoming album 'New' is set for release on October 14.

Having problems with your Olympus ? 1030SW Digital Camera ?
My Olympus 1030sw is 8 months old and I took it
\015 My camera got wet somehow today. In Thailand in less than a meter of water now it not turn on or anything ?\015\012Can I open upand leave in sun to dry out or is there a warranty repair center in krabi Thailand as it is only 8 months old and not sure what to do ? Thanks\015
Answers :
Well, getting it wet voided your warranty. Remove the battery and card...don't try to turn it on to avoid short circuits.You can try to bury it in some dry, uncooked rice for a couple of days. Water , especially salt water, is disastrous to cameras. The chance of it working are slim and even if it does for awhile, it may stop altogether later. Keep your fingers crossed.
The post by typrice is almost hilarious. This Olympus Stylus 1030 SW is supposed to be a WATERPROOF camera down to 10 meters, however reading the 82 + posts here < http://reviews.photographyreview.com/blog/olympus-stylus-1030-sw-review/# >, and my own recent LEAKING disaster, will quickly give you the indelible impression that this camera is

I was privileged to be a part of the leavers group at Parlex (Europe) Ltd who received NLP training from Cliff Partridge. None of us in the group knew what to expect from Cliff's training as the subject area was something of a mystery to begin with. However, Cliff's supremely genial style of presentation meant we warmed to him immediately and hung on to every word.
The two days with Cliff were the most interesting and rewarding training days I have ever spent. The information Cliff imparted was both novel and very useful. We all came away inspired and uplifted. As a qualified and experienced teacher myself I was unexpectedly inspired.
I would highly recommend Cliff as a perfect moral booster for anyone in this unfortunate situation. Cliff provided a much needed reassuring light and moral boost at this time of increasing darkness of impending redundancy.
Chris Wood, MBCS CITP IT Manager
I found the course very enjoyable and informative. Cliff was extremely well informed and put the information across in an understandable and interesting way. Thank you very much.
Mr M Harper
I found the course very insightful. It has given me more confidence just knowing I have the power to change my outcomes and look at life with a different prospective. The course was also enjoyable, interesting and fun. Mr Partridge is a good tutor and easily explains things.
Miss N Norris
Very informative. This helped me to recognize the boundaries I had put in place stopping me from achieving the results that I have wanted. I will definitely use NLP in my every day life to help me succeed in all my future endeavours.
Mr J Smyth
I really enjoyed the course and felt that I have learnt a lot about myself and how change is always possible. I would recommend the NLP course to all especially those having problems with confidence or other problems they feel stuck in.

Means mind or neurology, which includes your nervous system. Your neurology is what holds your perception of your inner and outer worlds together. All the information from the outside world and the inside world goes through our senses.
They are:
The words we use are another map or representation of our inner and outer worlds. When we combine certain words (auditory) with internal movies, pictures, visualisations (visual) they create certain feelings (kinaesthetic) and maybe smells (olfactory) and tastes (gustatory); all of this generates a behaviour for us to go towards what we want or away from what we don't want.
For us to achieve our goals in life we need to sequence our action.Neuro linguistic Programming uses principles modelled from people of outstanding excellence. All of us have the potential to create and achieve our goals. NLP techniques can begin to help you shine from within. Once you have a grasp on these new insights, you can become confident and find the results you want. Knowing how to be motivated means learning becomes easy and comfortable.Have you ever looked back and seen yourself in situations where you have said to yourself:
Being in control of your responses will begin to change your inner and outer worlds for you to become a life coach.Having these leadership skills means, having a different perception, you can begin to consider other choices. This will also help you develop your mind, body and spirit.
Richard Bandler and John Grinder laid the foundations of Neuro linguistic Programming by originally studying in detail the thinking skills of incredibly skilled and talented therapeutic wizards, Virginia Satir, Fritz Pearls and Dr Milton Erickson.
Bandler and Grinder made a precise and clear model for each of them and out of that came the discipline known as NLP.
As our life experiences are completely unique to ourselves, we all hold what is known in NLP as maps of reality. In other words, we have collected information as we go through the adventure of life, and all that information is stored in our mind and we believe that our experiences are true. These Maps make us who we are today. NLP looks at the structure of these maps and how they are held together. Neuro linguistic Programming addresses the structure of subjectivity in describing the process of how we use our neurology, which includes our nervous system, to create our Model of the World.
Not once upon a time, not twice upon a time, but thrice upon a time a little girl asked her mum why she always cooked the stew in two pots? Because, you see, the little girl was very curious.
Mum said, "I have always cooked the stew that way."
"But why?" said the little girl.
"Because that's the way my mum always cooked the stew."
The little girl said, "Can you ask grandma why she uses two pots to cook the stew?"
Mum replied, "You cook it in two pots because it gives it more individual flavours."
"Okay", said the little girl, "but can you still ask grandma why she uses two pots?"
"Yes, yes, yes. I will!"
Two weeks had passed and the little girl asked her mum on several occasions about the two pots.
"I will ask her next time". Her mum promised. Of course, being busy, mum forgot.
On Sunday afternoon the whole family were invited round for a winter stew. When the little girl heard the news her face light up with joy. As they sat around the dinner table on that chilly winter's day, the little girl quietly asked her mum to ask grandma about the two pots.
"Yes I will, but I know what the answer will be." She turned to her mother, "Mum, Alice would like to know why you use two pots when you make your special stew? I told her you do it because it gives the stew the individual flavours, but I don't think Alice believes me."
Grandma turned and smiled and then laughed out loud.
"What's so funny grandma?" asked Alice.
"The only reason I used two pots was I did not have one that was big enough!"

I think some amount of forced grouping would go over a bit better than you think. It has the added benefit of making community matter. I guess that's what we all loved about FFXI. Strangely enough, I find FFXI to be in a much better place than its counterpart, EQ these days. It's a smooth journey from 1 - 99 and beyond. EQ, well . . . EQ's a mess today.Shoko_Lied said:

It seems like everyone in the entire world has an opinion on Girls, and they'll share it with you whether you ask them to or not. Oddly enough, one demographic that hasn't been quizzed on their thoughts about the voice of our generation is Greenpoint residents. This, despite Hannah Horvath working and living there. So, Vulture picked up a camera and a microphone and finally got to the bottom of this.
The best part of the video is obviously the old guy, who gets in the one-two punch of "It's not as funny as The Big Bang Theory" and "it's a woman's show." Proving that once again, old people are our most precious resource. Elsewhere, a a couple folks at Cafe Grumpy sound concerned about the possibility of a bus tour rolling through, which is all but guaranteed now that the show got picked up for a third season.

Formerly known as Zombie Zebra. Currently known as shining example of a perfectly normal and sane BMWW shipper. Am I still a Zebra? Perhaps. Am I still a zombie? We'll see...
What I do: Read, eat, drink, sleep, party, sing, dance, and ship. Ship BMWW, that is. To the EXTREME(insert explosions and sharks with machine guns)
Things I love and enjoy thoroughly: Batman and Wonder Woman (apart they're perhaps two of the most amazing and wonderful fictional characters known to mankind. Together they're nothing short of AWESOME!)
(I apologize at the amount of exclamation marks, while writing this profile, I was under the influence of a LOT of coffee)
Cultured and civilized explanation as to why BMWW is better than any other ship:
Opposites attract, yes. But not in the way of being incompatible. Diana and Bruce have more in common than most. Both warriors to a fault, both royalty (in a sense), both had unconventional upbringings, both raised by single-parents (in a sense), both desire justice in its purest form. They're both undeniably hot. But that's beside the point.
He'd help ground her. She'd help pull him out of his nightmares. Etc, etc. You know the drill. Perfect match.
He calls her princess.
Do I need to say any more?

Also with Adam Arkin, Fyvush Finkel, Amy Landecker, Peter Breitmayer, Alan Mandell, Stephen Park, Allen L. Rickman, Yelena Shmulenson, Ronald Schultz, Raye Birk, Jane Hammill, Claudia Wilkens, Simon Helberg, James Cada, Michael Lernerand and George Wyner. Directed by Joel Coen & Ethan Coen. [1:45]
SEX/NUDITY 7 - A woman lies on a chaise longue in her back yard, where a man can see her when he climbs on his low roof to fix an antenna: we see her twice in full frontal nudity, exposing bare breasts and pubic hair.
► In a dream sequence, a woman bounces up and down while straddling a man in a sexual position in bed: She wears a black bra and we see a small amount of cleavage and the man's bare shoulders.
► A man is examined in a doctor's office and in close-ups, and we see his abdomen and thighs. A beach scene shows many people in swim attire: boys are bare-chested, and girls and women wear one-piece swimsuits. In several brief bedroom scenes, we see a man in T-shirts and long boxer shorts. A woman wears short shorts in her house, revealing thighs.
► A woman announces to her husband that she has met another man and wants a ritual Jewish divorce, but she has not had sex with him (which she calls whoopsey-doopsey) with the other man. A man is arrested for gambling, solicitation and sodomy and his brother tells an attorney that the arrested man only goes to mixers at the Hillel Foundation and never even dates. A man tells his male supervisor during an informal review, "I saw 'Swedish Reverie', it wasn't even erotic."
► In two bedroom scenes, we see an older man and an older woman sleeping in long-sleeved and long legged pajamas, under covers; in one scene they hold hands.
VIOLENCE/GORE 4 - A husband tells his wife that a dead neighbor helped him with a broken wagon wheel in a snowstorm, but the wife rebukes him, stating that it was a spirit, and when he appears at the door the wife stabs him in the heart with an ice pick (a small trickle of blood is seen and a small spot of blood seeps through his shirt and it is unclear whether the man is real or a ghost); the woman says that their family is cursed by God.
► An elderly, overweight man enters an office, sits at a conference table, gets up, falls flat on his back, suggesting a heart attack, and the scene ends. A man dies in a car crash; we do not see any part of the accident, and we only hear a report by a teen girl and we hear a woman crying and wailing.
► A teacher struggles to open a school cellar door for children during the approach of a tornado: we see the tornado about 300 yards away from the children, we see the children turned toward the funnel cloud, watching it and the scene ends. A man in a car hits the car ahead of him at a slow speed and is rear-ended similarly; there are no injuries.
► A teen sister slaps her pre-teen bother on the back of the head and kicks him under the table during dinner, shouting at him and calling him a "brat." A family argues briefly and all slurp soup loudly. A man argues over the phone with another man about a bill. A man argues with his pre-teen son.
► A pre-teen boy runs away from another boy that wants to hit him, several times. Two police officers bring a man's brother to his house stating that he was arrested for gambling and other crimes and he shouts as the scene ends. A man cries in a motel room twice.
► In a dream sequence, two people are hunting in a marsh, one man stands up, points, and shouts, "Shoot the Jew," and the other, who's a boy, shoots at a man, strikes him in the back of the head and kills him (we see no blood); the dreaming man wakes with a start. In a dream sequence a man that has died sits in a professor's classroom, he gets up, slams the professor into a wall seven times and then he wakes with a start.
► A man and his son carry rifles and we later see them return with a dead deer on top of the car, showing a large spot of blood on its chest and has open eyes.
► In separate scenes an old woman and an old man cough up phlegm loudly and swallow it. In a dimly lit office, we see large insects in bottles of formaldehyde and a skull. A black-and-white film on TV shows a brain bubbling in a large transparent jar. A man has some sort of neck wound, for which he carries a small suction machine that is a box with a long hose; we never see the injury, but see an ice pack on the back of the neck and in one brief scene, we see the hose, which is labeled "suction," extending out of a closed bathroom door and hear a soft motor sound.
► A dentist forces a denture mold in and out of a man's mouth and later sees Hebrew characters on the teeth; he looks into many other people's mouths, searching for similar characters (we see many crooked teeth, fillings and stainless steel caps.
► A woman sits on a park bench wearing long shorts that reveal polio braces running from her knees to her heavy shoes and a pair of crutches leans against the back of the bench.
PROFANITY 7 - About 20 F-words, 2 sexual references, 9 scatological references, 6 anatomical references, 4 mild obscenities, name-calling (brat, child, Goy, Jew), 22 stereotypical comments about Jews, gentiles, women, teen girls, Koreans and Eastern Europeans, 6 religious profanities, 30 religious exclamations. [profanity glossary]
SUBSTANCE USE - A 12-year-old boy smokes a marijuana cigarette in a school restroom and a few minutes later staggers around and his vision is foggy, two boys smoke a marijuana cigarette while sitting in a tree and later while standing in a restroom stall in a Synagogue, and a woman lights a marijuana cigarette and takes a puff then passes it to a male visitor who also takes a puff and the scene becomes hazy and foggy and the woman switches to a tobacco cigarette. A man takes a bottle of wine to a male friend as a gift (they do not open it) and they discuss how to open it and let it breathe. A doctor lights and smokes a cigarette and offers one to a patient who declines, a woman smokes a cigarette in her back yard and later indoors, an elderly man smokes a pipe, but lets it fall from his mouth, a woman in a sexual dream smokes a cigarette, and an ashtray on a doctor's office desk is completely filled with cigarette butts.
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Judaism, family, relationships, infidelity, divorce, bribery, death, disappointment, gambling, challenges, ghosts and superstitions.
MESSAGE - Sometimes, life can seem cursed.

A CAVEAT: We've gone through several editorial changes since we started covering films in 1992 and some of our early standards were not as stringent as they are now. We therefore need to revisit many older reviews, especially those written prior to 1998 or so; please keep this in mind if you're consulting a review from that period. While we plan to revisit and correct older reviews our resources are limited and it is a slow, time-consuming process.

The decision by state Superintendent Mick Zais to pull South Carolina out of a planned statewide assessment program has some Spartanburg County superintendents wondering what comes next.
The decision by state Superintendent Mick Zais to pull South Carolina out of a planned statewide assessment program has some Spartanburg County superintendents wondering what comes next.
In a letter to the state board of education, Zais said he learned that he had the authority to withdraw the state from a consortium known as the Smarter Balanced Assessment that would have tested the newly-implemented Common Core standards at the end of the next school year.
"I am not wed to any particular test," Zais said in the letter, adding that South Carolina needs a high quality assessment that meets the specific needs of the state at a competitive price.
Jim Ray, superintendent of District 3, said that districts are receiving mixed signals from the board of education, which voted to keep the Smarter Balanced Assessment, and Zais, who removed the state from the consortium.
"I've never been in a situation where the future of standards and the testing used to assess (them) are so uncertain," he said.
District 2 Superintendent Scott Mercer echoed Ray's concerns about districts receiving mixed signals.
"It is a matter of concern to me that the state board of education, the state department of education and the legislature have been sending districts conflicting messages on this issue," he said, in a written statement.
Mercer added that testing requirements can become more of a problem than a solution, noting that initial estimates predict that the Smarter Balanced Assessments would take students nearly seven hours to complete in two separate sections.
The department of education voted two years ago to enter the state into the Smarter Balanced Consortium. At the time, two programs funded by federal grants were being considered for implementation across the country: the Smarter Balanced Consortium and the Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers, known as PARCC.
The department of education indicated that Smarter Balanced was the best option at the time.
"Conditions have changed," wrote Zais, who added that in the past two years, other testing companies have emerged with assessments for Common Core standards.
Pulling back on the Smarter Balanced Assessment was the right thing to do, said Rallie Liston, District 4 superintendent, who questioned how reliable the test would be.
"I think it's a good thing," he said. "I didn't know if it would be a reliable test from grade to grade."
District 7 Superintendent Russell Booker said he wasn't entirely surprised by Zais' decision and thinks that whatever assessment is chosen next, his district will handle the transition well.
"The point of assessments is to gauge where students are, and we're confident in our ability to do that," he said.
District 5 Superintendent Scott Turner said the biggest issue school districts face is simply not knowing what will come down the line.
"The biggest impact is really the uncertainty," he said. "The problem isn't dumping Smarter Balanced, it's not knowing what comes next."

Tasmanians are reminded that there is still time to get their annual flu vaccination before the winter flu season starts.
With only 18 notified cases of flu in Tasmania this year, Specialist Medical Advisor Dr Fay Johnston said it is not too late to get vaccinated.
"It takes a couple of weeks for immunity to kick in, so by getting vaccinated now you will have plenty of antibodies circulating in your body before you come in contact with the virus," Dr Johnston said.
"Vaccination helps both you and others – if you don't get flu, you can't spread it to the people around you.
"That's why we recommend vaccination to people other than those at risk of severe flu.
"We also encourage anyone who lives or works with vulnerable people to get vaccinated."
Tasmanians at risk of severe flu include:
- anyone aged 65 and over
- Indigenous people
- pregnant women
- adults and children from six months of age with underlying medical conditions, such as heart and lung disease, cancers, HIV, asthma and diabetes.
Vaccination is available through GPs, other immunisation providers or, in some cases, through workplace vaccination programs.
Tasmanians will be able to track the spread of flu in their state by accessing the fortnightly flu activity data at www.publichealthalerts.tas.gov.au
"Vaccination is just one way that helps keep the whole community safe and healthy," Dr Johnston said.
"It also helps if we practice good hygiene.
"This includes washing our hands regularly, covering our coughs and sneezes, and staying away from other people if we do get sick.
"We publish the fluTAS Report so everyone in the community can access the latest information on just how much flu-like illness is occurring.
"FluTAS also provides an indication of whether the preventive measures we're taking are working to ward off the winter flu."
The fluTAS Report 2012 uses data from local GPs, laboratory testing and information from Tasmanian contributors to the national online FluTracker program.
For more information or to access the latest fluTAS Report visit www.publichealthalerts.tas.gov.au

From my interests in fibre, I have met many other shepherds and all of our goals are to raise happy healthy animals that give us lovely fibre to spin. I have been working over the past few years to increase the softness and fineness of my shetland sheep while maintaining the breed standard of a well built hardy self sufficient animal that grows well and has few problems at lambing time. I am starting to see the fruits of my labour pay off this year and have been able to launch a line of shetland wool products called HOPEFUL SHETLAND, all from my own animals.

Hard water is not considered harmful to your health, but it can cause ugly stains from scale build up in sinks, tubs, and elsewhere if left unchecked. People notice the stains, but they are generally unaware of the significant hidden costs of scale build up in pipes and fixtures until it is too late.
Scale is formed when minerals (usually calcium) precipitate out of water. The scaling process accelerates dramatically when the temperature of the water increases or when the pH of water increases significantly which is what happens in the water cells of alkaline water ionizers. In fact, scaling is primary cause of malfunction for water ionizers.
What is hard water and how is it measured?
Hard water is water with a high mineral content. The primary components of water hardness are the cations (Ca 2+) and Magnesium (Mg 2+), with calcium playing the major role. Calcium usually enters the water as either calcium carbonate (CaCO3,) in the form of limestone and chalk, or calcium sulfate (CaSO4). The predominant source of magnesium is dolomite (CaMg(CO3)2). Less significant contributors to water hardness are other dissolved compounds such as the anions of bicarbonates ( HCO3−) and sulfates (SO2−4).
Water hardness is measured in parts per million (ppm) or grains per gallon (gpg). In the USA, 1 gpg = 17.1 ppm. In Canada, 1 gpg = 14.2 pmp. I prefer parts per million as the measure is consistent in both countries. There is no absolute definition of levels of water hardness. The water softener companies define medium hard water a lot lower that I believe is realistic, but you have to remember that they are trying to sell you there products. I think a more realistic guideline for measuring the hardness (given that I'm not trying to sell you a water softener) of your source water would fall into the following catagories:
- Soft: Below 70 ppm
- Medium: 70 ppm to 140 ppm
- Hard: 140 ppm and up
Once the source water reaches 140 ppm of hardness, it probably makes sense to consider getting a water softener. Of course, the higher the number goes and the more water you use, the greater the need for a water softening solution.
The hidden costs of hard water scaling:
While hard water scale strains are annoying, the more significant problem is the cost associated with scale buildup. Hot water tanks create scale at a rapid rate as the heat facilitates the precipitation of calcium out of the water. The scale forms on the two heating elements in the tank. As the scale builds up, more and more energy is required to heat up the water in the tank. Nobody thinks about the additional cost of heating their hot water because it is out of sight and out of mind. However, the energy wasted can amount to several hundred dollars per year. Additional costs from scaling show up in the form of shortened lifespans of heat producing appliances such as dishwashers, washing machines, kettles, and water ionizers. Additional costs show up in the form or replacing taps and sinks. In older homes that have hard water but don't use a water softener, sometimes pipes have to be replaced (see the picture above).
When it comes to alkaline water ionizers, scaling wrecks havoc over the performance of the machines unless you have a Hydrogen Infusion Machine (HIM). You can check out the industry leading HIM at: http://h2fx.com/#oid=22092_2007
Water Hardness and Drinking Water
As I stated earlier, hard water won't hurt you. In fact, the World Health Organization recommends drinking hard water. Calcium and magnesium (the components of hard water) are essential to good health.
My focus is on drinking clean (no unhealthy contaminants) and healthy (containing dissolved hydrogen gas) water. Unless you are incredibly fortunate and have daily access to a natural spring that provides both clean and healthy water, you face a decision of drinking tap water or some other form of man made water.
I have a problem with bottled water. It is expensive, is typically not very healthy for you in comparison to alternatives, and I can't rid myself of the image of massive landfill sites filled with plastic bottles that have a 10,000 year half life.
That leaves us with the alternative of bringing in bottled water, or buying a machine that either cleans (RO systems or filter systems) or healthy water (HIM's).
Water jugs don't present any hard water issues because you simply tap the water out of jug that often sits on top of a cooler. The downside is that the water isn't necessarily clean or healthy, and it is expensive. You really can do better.
HIM's versus Electric water ionizers Prior to the introduction of HIM's, the only alternative was alkaline electric alkaline water ionizers. The alkaline water ionizer industry made many claims about the health benefits of the water, but the scientific community has debunked many of those claims over the years. The good news is that the new hydrogen infusion machines (HIM's) are supported by both the scientific and medical communities, AND, hard water scaling is never a problem.
Reducing hard water for an entire house:
The traditional method of reducing water hardness was to use a salt based water softener. To keep the discussion really short and simple, the system captures calcium and magnesium with beads, and then washes out the beads with salt each day. The state of California has banned the sale of salt based water softeners. I expect that we will see the ban extended to other jurisdictions over time because of the high cost to the municipalities of removing the salt from the waste water. Another downside to salt based water softeners is the fact the salt in the water gets absorbed into your skin during showers or baths at levels that often exceed the recommendation of the Safe Drinking Water Act.
In recent years, we have witnessed growth in salt free water softeners, which are much healthier for your skin. I owned one of these systems in my previous home and found it to be effective and a lot easier to maintain than hauling bags of salt. I don't have a specific product recommendation but you can Google: salt free water softeners. My only caution is that if you have really hard water (250 ppm or more of hardness) the salt free water softeners don't work as well as they do when the source water is not so hard.
The opinions expressed in this article are those of the author based upon his research and experiences working with hard water conditions across the country.

Andrews Tarn and Andrews Glacier Trail is a 8.6 mile moderately trafficked out and back trail located near Estes Park, Colorado that features a lake and is rated as difficult. The trail offers a number of activity options and is best used from July until October.
nature trips
wild flowers
no dogs
Take Hwy. 36 out of Estes Park to the RMNP entrance, go to Bear Lake Rd. then take this road to the Glacier Gorge Th.
where the trail splits to go to Andrews glacier is it covered in snow. snowshoes are required at this point. I hiked maybe 1/4 mile in microspikes but the postholing was just too often so I had to abort and turn around.
This was an amazing hike! Started at Bear Lake trailhead and hiked up to the Loch. The hike to the Loch was a little crowded but after leaving this area the crowds pretty much disappeared. Near the Andrews campsite area we saw an extremely large bear across the meadow! He saw us and worked his way up the rocks and observed the meadow for 5-10 minutes and came back down and disappeared. We continued on our hike and it was well worth it. A little bit of scrambling is required for the last 45min or so but nothing too hard for any experienced hikers. I would still rate this hike as hard but it wasn't overwhelming for me. This is one of my favorite hikes in the park and Ill be going back again before the weather changes!
I loved this hike! Although it was cold and extremely windy, my gf and I had an awesome time. Tons of amazing views throughout. We'll be back!
Cindy M.
This was haaaard for the last mile with scrambling across boulders and then a very steep incline for a final push to the top. That said, overall it's a stunning hike that passes the Loch. Once past there the people thin out and you almost have the trail to your self.
This trail is one of the handful of forks along the Glacier Gorge Trail. Past Loch Lake, follow the sign to Andrew Glacier on the right. I did this trail on the way back from Sky Pond and Lake of Glass, so was not full of energy to complete the trail. It begins within a pine forest and quickly opens up above treeline and into the exposed rock faces of the surrounding mountains. Following the trail here can get tricky as there is only the occasional cairn marking the way and the rocks aren't always flat and don't create an obvious path. My breathing sped up and endurance slowed down quickly as the trail grew steadily more steep. The first glacier you see is on the left across the basin. This is Taylor Glacier. It is here that I decided to turn around. The trail continued up and over a rock wall that looked too daunting for me. I couldn't see over the wall but knew that Andrew Glacier was there. This is a difficult trail especially if you encompass other trails with it first. I'd advise hiking this first if you want to be able to finish it.
Wow!! Wonderful and challenging trail. Boulders , boulders , and more boulders . Loved it
This was a great hike today. We went up the glacier and across Flat Top for an 11 mile loop that started and ended at the Bear Lake Trailhead. We had poles to use and they helped although didn't slide on the glacier. Windy and chilly up top but wow...the views. We hiked over to Chaos Canyon and looked down that.
Fantastic! We did this in two days. Started at bear lake, and hiked to Andrews Creek campsite. Spent the night there. And loved it. One big drawback was a giant amount of mosquitos. Bring LOTS of bug repellent if you plan to stay at this campsite.
We hiked from the campsite to andrews glacier and then climbed the glacier too. We came prepared with ice axes and crampons, which made it pretty easy to climb the glacier. I do not recommend trying to ascend here without at LEAST microspikes.
We then climbed from the top of the glacier up through the tundra to the summit of mount otis.
This was an amazing hike. Very strenuous and i do not recommend if you are out if shape. The distance from the campsite to the peak is about two miles and two THOUSAND feet elevation gain. That isban extremely steep ascent.... Much more than a mere hike!
Not as tough or lengthy as Longs Peak though.
Every bit worth it though! I give this one 5 stars!
-- also... In regard to the reviewer below me:
1: $26 for a backpacking fee is cheap!.. Thats $26 for as many nights as u want... And as big a group as you want. We had 5 ppl for 3 nights.. Thats less than $2 per person per night!
2: get a national park pass to use the park and u can have as many entries as you want to any park. Thats a bargain.
3: if you are complaining about nature costing money... Who do you think naintains these parks?... RMNP is one of the best organized and maintained parks Ive been to, ill gladly pay the fee and keep good rangers employed.
Just make sure you are aware there is a $20.00 entry fee, also every patrking lot to every trail was full, so get there before 9 am. Keep in mind maybe if you are not backpacking or do not have dogs, park and take the shuttes so people with dogs can actually park and hike. Also this place was a beautiful, but what a scam! Not only did we have to pay $20.00 for n entry pass but it would have been another $26.00 to backpack.... how pathetic that we charge fees for nature...
Loved this trail, We went out with the intent to circle Andrews Glaicer then over to flat top and back to bear lake, but was turned around at the glaicer due to white out conditions.
But we snowshoe in at bear lake TH and went to the locke then onto the glaicer. there is a short cut rgt past the second bridge to the right that you can take and shave about a mile off if you want in the winter. But the trails are hard packed and easy to move one. We camped below the Locke and headed back out the next day. Micro spikes would be good enough most of the way up if you wanted to use them.
Always like hiking in RMNP. Great day for hiking.
Even in a dry year this hike was great. Trail, to skree scrambling, a bit of bouldering, and a final push up a ridge to the glacial tarn at the end. Well worth it. Go early and get down before the afternoon Tstorms though, as you will be exposed past Andrews Meadow, a bit beyond the Sky Pond turn off.
Another great hike from Glacier Gorge Trailhead in RMNP.Go up past the Loch were a trail to the right goes up a valley, through rocks and a a steep hill to the lake below Andrews Glacier. The views of the mountains are awesome. This trail takes you higher in elevation than most trails in the park,excluding the trails to the top of some peaks.
Awesome Trail, there were a lot of trees down on the trail after the split for Sky Pond/Andrews Glacier. Completed it in June, still a lot of snow up to the Glacier. Awesome views the whole way up.

Video Games Get Real-Time Weather
While thunderstorms and other adverse weather conditions have long been known to disrupt real-life sporting events, they are now beginning to impact virtual players in sports video games as well.
Game publishers have nearly perfected the ground visuals in video games, and simulating actual weather conditions is a logical next step in making the games even more realistic -- be it on a virtual golf course, baseball field or football stadium.EA Sports has partnered with The Weather Channel to include real-time weather into its "Madden NFL 10" videogame. As a result, if a hurricane or other bad weather should hit the U.S., players may now find certain stadiums more challenging to play.
"Tropical systems typically bring with them strong winds and heavy rain, so hurricanes on a path closer to a stadium would certainly affect gameplay, creating a wet field, wind gusts and more," Tom Moore, lead meteorologist at The Weather Channel, told Reuters.
Consoles like Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 allow the new "Madden" game to receive continuous weather updates through a broadband Internet connection.
"Our teams at The Weather Channel provide a data feed that allows EA to pull real-time weather for any location chosen as a venue within the game," Derek Van Nostran, director of marketing for The Weather Channel Interactive, told Reuters.
"We also provided historical data for the past three years so that the EA producers would be able to match realistic weather conditions at every venue for games played at any time of year."
"Madden" players will see their virtual NFL players fumble more balls, drop more passes and slip and slide amid gale force winds and rain that come with a hurricane or tropical storm.
"We basically have the traditional weather conditions covered," said Phil Frazier, senior producer of "Madden NFL 10" at EA Tiburon.
"We even support extreme heat and cold, where extreme heat has a huge impact on how quickly players fatigue as you play the game," he told Reuters.
The weather conditions have a visual affect on the game as well, he added.
For instance, rain and snow games have a much different effect because of changes in lighting and fog effects. Meanwhile, snow games feel colder because of the additional blue tint to the lighting.
Subtle lighting adjustments in rainy gives games a dirtier feel, with players' uniforms becoming muddy when playing on grass fields.
Gamers who play EA Sports' "NCAA Football 10," will also experience real-time weather effects such as rain and snow.
Ben Haumiller, the game's designer, said bad weather will cause wide receivers to slip while running, while winds affect everything from long punts to field goals.
While football is typically played in any type of weather, the PGA TOUR halts play during rain. However, EA Sports' "Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 10" lets gamers play through virtual rain and windstorms.
"At one point during development there was some really extreme tropical weather hitting northern Florida," Mike Cayado, supervising producer for "Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 10" at EA Tiburon, told Reuters.
"When we entered the game onto the TPC Sawgrass course, we were playing in 30-40 mph winds. That has never been experienced before inside our game."
In addition to the visual impact, the ball sticks and doesn't roll as far when the grass is wet.
"As a player you have to be making constant adjustments to these changing conditions and it really adds a lot of depth to the gameplay," added Cayado.

I like having my audio embedded in Flash because you can not download it or separate the audio from the swf and so I have pretty much full control and security.
Is there another option that has the same level of security for audio where the user can only listen to it but can not download the file?
I also noticed on Android phones that it crashes when you have 50 flash elements on a page even if the swf has not loaded the audio and is just a container or player for when the audio is called to load or stream into it.

AC Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani has delivered an update on two of their transfer targets.
Fiorentina midfielder Adem Ljajic and CSKA Moscow attacker Keisuke Honda are both interesting Milan.
"Honda and Ljajic are different cases," Galliani told Sky Sport Italia.
"Ljajic is not possible because Robinho hasn't left, while there is a good chance that Honda can arrive in January and so we'll wait for him then."

Get Close to Me
- Artist: Stephanie Bettman
- Genre: Country
- Release Date: 2/3/2009
With wit and wisdom, Stephanie Bettman's debut album, Get Close To Me, explores many facets of the nature of the human heart. Sometimes sad, sometimes sassy, she delves into the subject of emotional connection, not just one to another, but also to oneself, and to all. The eleven songs, which comprise Get Close To Me, reflect a dry sense of humor and a deep feeling for humanity, exploring perspectives on passion and pain. With her honey-sweet fiddling and her soothing soprano, Stephanie draws you in from the first notes of the title track, Get CloseTo Me. A song that invites the listener to look within and find that even "when you look into the darkness I am the light in your eyes'. Then she switches gears and turns up the heat with the punchy Seed Of Doubt showing off both her vocal prowess and her ferocious fiddle playing. This song, as well as the fiery Separate Ways and the swinging Lulu Wants To Die, are beautiful examples of Stephanie's mastery of that Bluegrass art of pairing a somber lyric with a powerful, upbeat melody. This is part of her humor; as if to say even when everything looks bleak, it's still fun to sing about. One of her most powerful themes is sometimes our greatest pain brings our greatest reward. The Letting Go and The Only Way To Love You both express viewpoints from characters who find themselves made stronger in times of personal struggle. Get Close To Me was arranged and produced by GRAMMY winning fiddler Richard Greene, who brings his avant-garde bluegrass sensibility to the album (as well as a some twin fiddling on track 9). Bettman and Greene, along with mixing engineer Richard Dobson, have created a production that is organic, exciting and eclectic with Bettman's voice and lyrics taking center stage and her fiddling adding a sweetness and excitement throughout. Also featuring: Luke Halpin (harmonies, mandolin, guitar), Cody Bryant (acoustic guitar), Brian Netzley (harmonies, bass) with some star cameos by Peter Thomas (drums, Elvis Costello), Mark Browne (Bass, Melissa Etheridge), and Carl Verheyen (electric guitar, Supertramp). Stephanie has been a performer for many years, though only recently as a contemporary musician. Her formal training is in theater and opera, and she worked for many years as an actress and sometimes also a screenwriter. Then more recently, her creative impulse was for circus. She worked for a few years as a trapeze and circeau artist in the greater LA area, before making the decision to pour all her efforts into music. Her efforts are appreciated, as there is no doubt Ms Bettman is an artist to watch. * 2008 Grand Prize Southern California Live Acoustic Music Competition * 2008 top 100 New Music Critiques Pick - Music Connection Magazine * 2008 Honorable Mention West Coast International Songwriting Competition * 2008 Finalist International Acoustic Music Association Songwriting Competition * 2008 Regional Finalist Mountain Stage New Song Competition *2008 Folk Alliance Regional West Premiere Showcase Artist.

Multiple regression model of beat-to-beat spatial repolarization variability
Suche in Medline nach
|8. Februar 2007
Question: In this study the spatio-temporal dynamics of ventricular depolarization and repolarization have been studied on a beat-to-beat basis.
Method Used: Spatio-temporal dynamics were assessed by 192-lead body surface potential map (BSPM) records, evaluated beat-by-beat. Healthy subjects and ICD patients were enrolled in the study. All the measurements were taken in supine rest position and in each case 5 minutes were stored. In data processing premature ectopic beats were excluded, only the statistical properties of normal sinus rhythm were taken into consideration. The spatial nature of activation and repolarization variability was characterized by QRS and QRST integral maps both in the domain of measurements and 12D space of Karhunen-Loeve (KL) components. A concise characterization of spatial repolarization variability was done in terms of the nondipolarity indices (NDI). Furthermore, heart rate variability (HRV) was expressed by the Fourier transform of short term RR distance records.
Results: In healthy subjects multiple regression revealed significant within beat correlation of (the 192D) QRS and QRST integral map vectors. The regression of QRST vs. QRS integral NDI values in healthy subjects yielded R2>0.4 median value. The involvement of RR as a second independent variable into the model only slightly increased R2, i.e. the variability of RR has only minor impact of the spatial repolarization inhomogeneity. In ICD patients R2 decreased significantly (median: 0.23), due to the diminished coefficient of RR. Median value of NDI(QRST) standard deviation in normals and ICD patients was 1.62% and 3.64%, respectively.
Conclusion: According to our results high spatial integral map pattern and NDI(QRST) stability observable in healthy subjects is significantly lower in ICD patients. In arrhythmia patients the former linear association between the depolarization and repolarization spatial variability and RR is significantly diminished, residual term increased.

Get to know state laws when someone is harassing you
Dear Cindy,
I work for a small, family-owned business. I really like my job, but the chief financial officer is always making rude, insulting and sexually explicit comments. The owners are either unaware or have chosen to ignore the issue because he's a solid CFO. I don't really want to quit, but do I have any alternatives?
Not ready to leave in Hanover
Dear Not Ready to Leave,
As you have already discovered, there is nothing flattering about being harassed. The days of acceptable "Mad Men"-type office behavior are long gone (or should be). According to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, sexual harassment is a form of sexual discrimination. When the harasser is someone in a position of authority in the company, it becomes an abuse of power.
The first thing you should do is research the sexual harassment laws for your state. Not every state has their own, but you should be aware of both your state's and the federal laws on sexual harassment. You don't mention how many employees you have, but unfortunately, both the federal laws and many states do not protect you in businesses with fewer than 15 employees.
Assuming you are covered, you should understand that sexual harassment couldn't occur unless the actions are unwanted. The first thing you need to do is make sure you tell the CFO exactly how his actions and comments make you feel. I know that it's really difficult, but you need to do it. If you don't, you'll be stuck in the middle of a "he said, she said" situation. Make sure you have witnesses and document the conversation. If you're lucky, his awareness of your feelings will stop the unwanted comments. If not, follow the steps below.
If your company has a human resources function, you need to notify them. Be prepared to give them the specifics of the harassing behavior, including when and how often it occurred, and provide them with the documentation of your conversations with him. If you don't have a human resources department, be prepared to tell the owners and take the documentation with you. You may want to approach the owners from the perspective of educating them on what constitutes harassment.

ScreenCrush's Comic Strip is a weekly roundup of the hottest superhero movie news items. From Marvel to DC and points in between, if it pertains to costumed comic book heroes, we're covering it here, bringing you our expert analysis. This week is jam packed with tidbits, from a major move for the 'Batman vs. Superman' movie to new Marvel TV ventures to Phase 2 updates!
But first things first … is 'Kick-Ass 2' the Best Superhero Movie of 2013? In the ongoing ScreenCrush Fan Choice Awards — during which fans vote for the best movies, TV series and performances from a selection nominated by the ScreenCrush editors — the sequel to the Chloe Moretz- and Aaron Taylor-Johnson-led superhero flick is surprisingly surpassing 'Man of Steel,' 'Iron Man 3,' 'Thor: The Dark World' and 'The Wolverine' for the title of Best Superhero Movie of 2013. However, this could all change, as readers have until February 11 to cast their votes, and votes can be cast once per hour. Be sure to submit yours in the poll below:
'Batman vs. Superman'
Ever since 'Man of Steel' director Zack Snyder made the big announcement during Comic-Con 2013 that the sequel to his Henry Cavill-led Superman film would team-up the Man of Steel with the Dark Knight in a 'Batman vs. Superman' movie, fans were already marking their calendars for the 2015 release date. But this all changes now that Warner Bros. has re-dated the project for release on May 6, 2016 — which is coincidentally the same date that an untitled Marvel movie will be hitting theaters. Interesting …
This move will give the "filmmakers time to realize fully their vision, given the complex visual nature of the story," said Warner Bros. International Distribution President Veronika Kwan Vandenberg:
We know that there is already great anticipation building for the next super hero film from Zack Snyder, and we are equally eager to see what he has in store for Superman and Batman as they share the big screen for the first time ever.
Though this comes as a major downer for fans, given both the grand scale of the mere prospect of a team-up like this and the first feature-film rendering of Wonder Woman with Gal Gadot, we still have, at least, the upcoming VOD release of 'Justice League War.' Based on the graphic novel 'Justice League: Origins' by Geoff Johns and Jim Lee, the animated movie envisions Dark Seid's epic attack on Earth, which also serves as the initial moment that calls the Justice League to form. Check out the two latest clips from the film, hitting VOD and DVD this February 4, below:
In addition, Warner Bros. Animation revealed a first look at its upcoming 'Batman and Son' movie, loosely based on the Grant Morrison comic arc of 2006, in the form of a trailer. As ComicsAlliance pointed out, while Damian (Robin) is introduced as Batman's unruly pre-teen son, the film throws in Deathstroke, a villain not featured in the comics. The footage looks pretty killer, regardless:
'Batman and Son' will hit DVD, Blu-ray and Digital Download later in the spring.
The Avengers
Though 2015 lost its Batman and Superman, there's still 'The Avengers: Age of Ultron' coming on May 1, 2015! While the sentient and super-powered Ultron (voiced by James Spader), the magic-wielding Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen) and her speedster brother Quicksilver (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) all serve to hype up the release even more, another addition has been made that will make you forget all about 'Batman vs. Superman.'
Thomas Kretschmann, who's known around the NBC pool for his role in the 'Dracula' TV series, was cast in the role of Baron Von Strucker, that secondary and not-so secret villain we told you about. The character is described as an ex-Nazi leader of the villainous group H.Y.D.R.A., an expert marksman and swordsman, and one capable of prolonging his life (seemingly) indefinitely. He will reportedly be introduced at the very beginning of the film as a means of incorporating Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver into the storyline — comic fans know that these two siblings were involved in villainous activities before teaming up with The Avengers … just something to think about.
'Captain America: The Winter Soldier' was seen filming reshoots recently with stars Chris Evans and Scarlet Johansson around the same time Kretschmann's casting was revealed. Could this mean there will be some tie-in of Baron von Strucker to this standalone film? While this remains speculation at this point, the filmmakers on that project revealed the 'Captain America' sequel will have the most lead-in to 'The Avengers: Age of Ultron,' so it seems like a possibility.
While we wait on more details, one thing is confirmed — the next 'Captain America 2? trailer will hit during the 2014 Super Bowl! The big game will air on FOX starting at 6 pm on Sunday, February 2, and this trailer will be accompanied by new previews for 'The Amazing Spider-Man 2,' 'X-Men: Days of Future Past' and the first 'Transformers 4' trailer. So, in short, commercial time is game time!
Check out all the trailers coming for this year's Super Bowl Sunday HERE.
Elsewhere in the Marvel universe, two new members of the 'Avengers' movies will be making big jumps to the small screen — 'Thor' and 'Thor: The Dark World' star Jaimie Alexander will descend from Asgard as Lady Sif upon 'Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.,' and Hayley Atwell's 'Agent Carter' is moving ahead with her own potential TV series.
During the 2014 Television Critics Association panels, ABC Entertainment Group President Paul Lee made the announcements, first revealing that Sif will make her grand entrance on the 15th episode of 'S.H.I.E.L.D.' "with a specific mission," making her the first super-powered hero of the film series to pop up in the TV sphere.
As for 'Agent Carter,' this was the first time that Marvel officially acknowledged development on a standalone series for the character. Atwell starred as Captain America's agent love interest in 'The First Avenger' before landing her own Marvel One-Shot short film, 'Agent Carter.' Now, thanks to her character's popularity among Marvelites, Tara Butters and Michele Fazekas have been brought on as showrunners for a potential series, while scribes Christopher Markus and Stephen McFreely from the first 'Captain America' movie have written the script. As of now, no pilot order has been officially made, though thinks are looking up!
'The Amazing Spider-Man'
While Disney and ABC's Marvel divisions continue expanding their shared universe, so too are Sony with their Spider-Man properties. Director Marc Webb's highly anticipated 'The Amazing Spider-Man 2,' which will be a major stepping stone towards the announced 'Sinister Six' movie, released a few new looks in the form of posters and photos — probably the most attractive marketing moves for the film yet!
See the rest HERE.
While this production is already toting some big names and characters (namely Jamie Foxx's Electro, Paul Giamatti's Rhino and Green Goblin presumably as Dane DeHaan), if you recall, Shailene Woodley was supposed to make an appearance as Mary Jane Watson in the sequel, though, due to the focus of the story, had to be cut. Will we eventually see her down the road in 'The Amazing Spider-Man 3,' or was all her work for nothing? Speaking with MTV News about the character, the actress said:
I don't know anything, but seeing as how they picked up the next two Divergent films, I don't know how I'd keep my sanity with two big action films in one year … But anything can happen…
And there you have it! Check back next week for another wrap up of the latest comic book movie news.
