Make Scented Play Dough
Preschoolers can spend hours creating with play dough. Here's a quick trick to put a fresh spin on an all-time kid favorite. Add in a packet of Kool-Aid powder and your play dough will smell like cherries, grapes, oranges, or strawberries! Your child will be fascinated by her new set of fragrant play dough, but she'll also be giving the muscles in her hand the workout they need to get ready for all that writing, drawing, and cutting she'll be expected to do in year one. This activity is easy and fun, and it's sure to bring a smile to your child's face!
What You Need:
- 1 large pan
- 1 mixing bowl
- 1 mixing spoon
- 1 pack Kool-Aid powder, any flavour
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups salt
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons cream of tartar
- 3 cups water
- Food dye (optional)
What You Do:
- Invite your child to pick a flavour of Kool-Aid mix.
- Help her measure and mix all the ingredients, and put them into the bowl. If you want to add some colour to the play dough, squeeze in a few drops of food dye and mix it in well.
- Pour the mixture into the pan over very low heat.
- Stir until the mixture is no longer sticky, and then remove it immediately.
- Let it cool, and then present it to your child to play with! She'll have hours of fun shaping and molding the sweet-smelling play dough. When she's finished playing with it, store it in a large plastic ziplock bag. Experiment with different scents for a never ending fun time!

Randy York's N-Sider Blog
The Official Blog of the Huskers
Today marks Nebraska football's annual Fan Day and for everyone out there not taking a kid or a grandkid or a nephew, niece or family friend to Memorial Stadium as a front to meet Husker coaches and players, don't worry, be happy. Our Media Relations staff has helped the N-Sider pull 28 facts together so we can all count down the last 28 days before Nebraska's season home-opener against Southern Miss, an 11-game winner in '11.
So here, in no particular order, are 28 historic facts straight out of Nebraska football's bible - the 2012 Nebraska Football Media Guide. That 208-page publication is available now online. It's also on sale at Huskers Authentic for those of us who prefer holding such valuable information in our own hands, so we can savor every little morsel fit to print. Take time to digest all 28 facts as you count down to kickoff and enjoy this historical pre-season journey:
1) Nebraska's vaunted home sellout streak enters its 50th year this season. The streak began on Nov. 3, 1962 - a 16-7 Homecoming loss to Missouri in front of 36,501 fans.
2) Nebraska ranks fourth all-time with 846 victories. The Huskers are one of only seven schools (following Penn State's vacated victories), including three Big Ten programs, in the 800 all-time win club.
3) Nebraska has won 412 games since 1970, the highest total in the nation. The Huskers have won 26 more games than second-place Oklahoma. Only four schools in the nation have won 370 games since 1970, and three of those schools are members of the Big Ten Conference.
4) Nebraska Head Coach Bo Pelini owns four more victories than any of the other 18 coaches hired prior to the 2008 season.
5) Nebraska is one of only eight schools nationally to win nine games in each of the past four seasons.
6) Among current BCS Conference schools, Pelini is only the sixth first-time head coach in NCAA history to win at least nine games in each of his first four seasons. Three of the six coaches to accomplish that feat coached at Nebraska (Pelini, Tom Osborne and Frank Solich).
7) When combining statistics from the past three seasons, Nebraska's Blackshirt defense ranks second nationally in pass efficiency defense, sixth in scoring defense, seventh in passing defense and ninth in total defense.
8) Rex Burkhead ran for more yards last season (1,357) than any Husker I-back since Ahman Green in 1997.
9) A second straight 1,000-yard rushing season would move I-back Rex Burkhead into third place on Nebraska's career rushing chart. He needs 1,227 yards rushing this season to surpass Ahman Green for second place on the Huskers' all-time rushing chart.
10) Third-year starting quarterback Taylor Martinez needs only 161 rushing yards and 280 passing yards to become the 25th player in NCAA history to rush for 2,000 yards and throw for 4,000 yards in a career.
11) Junior Taylor Martinez needs 161 yards rushing to become the fourth Nebraska quarterback to rush for 2,000 career yards. A third straight 800-yard rushing season would vault Martinez to second place on Nebraska's career quarterback rushing chart.
12) Taylor Martinez enters this season in sixth place on Nebraska's career passing chart. The junior needs only 280 yards passing to become the fifth Husker to throw for 4,000 yards in a career. Martinez needs only 1,406 passing yards this season to move into second place on Nebraska's all-time passing chart. After throwing for 2,089 yards as a sophomore in 2011, Martinez would need 2,131 yards passing to pass Zac Taylor (5,850 yards) as Nebraska's all-time passing leader.
13) Taylor Martinez set Nebraska's total offense records for a freshman and sophomore in 2010 and 2011, respectively. Martinez enters his junior season ranked third in school history with 5,559 yards of career total offense. He needs only 219 yards of total offense to move past Zac Taylor for second on NU's all-time chart and 2,357 yards to pass Heisman Trophy Winner Eric Crouch as Nebraska's all-time career total offense leader. Martinez has averaged 2,780 yards of total offense over his first two seasons.
14) At least three Huskers have been selected in each of the last 43 NFL Drafts. Nebraska has averaged nearly six NFL Draft picks per year over the last 50 years.
15) Nebraska's 345 all-time NFL Draft picks rank fifth among all college football programs.
16) Nebraska ranks fourth in NCAA history with 48 all-time bowl appearances, including 29 appearances in a BCS Bowl (Fiesta, Orange, Rose and Sugar).
17) The football team won the athletic department's 2011 Nebraska Life Skills Team Competition as the most active men's team in the community.
18) John Papuchis is the fourth-youngest defensive coordinator in the country. He's also the nation's youngest solo defensive coordinator.
19) Nebraska has four football graduate assistant coaches this year in Joe Ganz and Vince Marrow (offense) and T.J. Hollowell and Jake Mandelko (defense). Previously, NCAA schools were only permitted to have two football GAs per season, but the NCAA increased that total to four GAs per season beginning on Aug. 1, 2012.
20) The football staff welcomes three new full-time members this season in Athletic Trainer Jeremy Busch, Sports Nutritionist Scott Trausch and Assistant Equipment Manager Tyler Recker.
21) The 2012 Nebraska football roster features 146 players from a total of 23 different states.
22) Nebraska returns 89 percent of its scoring from last season and 96 percent of its total offense, including 100 percent of its 2011 passing yards and 93 percent of its 2011 rushing yards.
23) Nebraska returns 100 percent of its production in every special team category from last season except kickoff return yards, where the Huskers return 99.6 percent of their return yards from 2011.
24) The Huskers will face 10 teams that participated in a bowl game in 2011. The Huskers' 10 bowl opponents from last season lead the country and are matched only by Big Ten schools Michigan and Penn State.
25) Nebraska football has been a family affair for the Cottons. Barney Cotton, the Huskers' Associate Head Coach who tutors the offensive line, played for the Huskers in the 1970s. His three sons, Ben (senior tight end), Jake (sophomore offensive lineman) and Sam (freshman tight end) are all on Nebraska's roster this fall. The Cotton brothers are believed to be the only group of three brothers on one FBS roster in 2012.
26) Nebraska has won 26 consecutive season openers, the longest active streak in the nation.
27) The Huskers had three players earn CoSIDA Academic All-America honors last season, including two (Rex Burkhead and Sean Fisher) who return this fall. The three selections in 2011 gave Nebraska 102 all-time CoSIDA Academic All-Americans, making the Husker football team the first individual athletic team in the nation to reach the 100-honoree milestone. As an institution, Nebraska owns a nation-leading 299 all-time CoSIDA Academic All-Americans across all sports.
28) Eight Huskers are on pace to earn their degrees by the time the season kicks off on Sept. 1. As many as 20 Huskers could have their degrees before the season ends.

JonBenet Ramsey
On December 25, 1996, six-year-old JonBenet Ramsey is killed in her Boulder, Colorado, home. John and Patsy Ramsey, her parents, called police around 6:00am the following morning to report that their daughter was missing. Although police found a ransom note demanding $118,000, the money would never be necessary, because JonBenet's body was found under a blanket in the basement that afternoon.
The crime soon became a national sensation. She had been beaten and strangled, and found with tape over her mouth and her hands tied together with a cord. There were also some signs of sexual assault. However, Boulder detectives did a poor job of preserving the evidence and actually allowed John Ramsey to disrupt the crime scene by removing his daughter's body from the basement. With no signs of an intruder, suspicion quickly fell on JonBenet's parents. The ransom note seemed suspicious to authorities. Not only did the strangely specific amount of the ransom--$118,000--match the exact amount of John Ramsey's bonus from his employer, the paper that the ransom note had been written on paper found in the Ramsey home. The note also seemed to be unusually wordy. For the curious public, the fact that John and Patsy Ramsey failed to cooperate with the investigation fueled speculation about their guilt. In addition, JonBenet's active participation in beauty pageants, which required her to wear heavy makeup and sophisticated clothing, was widely considered to be inappropriate. The investigation into JonBenet's murder continued for more than two years. But in October 1999, the grand jury hearing evidence in the case was finally dismissed with no recommendation for filing charges. In 2006 former schoolteacher John Mark Karr was arrested after confessing to the murder; however, Karr's DNA did not match samples found on JonBenet's body and he was released.

Definitely, one of the most common tasks that PHP programmers have to tackle during the development of web applications is validating user-supplied data. This fact brings up a crucial and mandatory rule: the client side is always non-trusted terrain with little or no control. Consequently, any data coming from it needs to be properly filtered and thoroughly checked before doing something useful with it.
Fortunately, the introspective capabilities offered by PHP allow you to check incoming data in a pretty straightforward way. It comes packaged with a number of native functions, which you've surely used hundreds of times before, that permit you to verify different data types very easily. These data types include strings and float numbers, integers, arrays and objects. This neat set of functions, along with some extra features bundled exclusively with PHP 5, such as type hinting, allow developers build libraries that can be used for checking empty strings and numeric ranges, email addresses and URLs, and so forth.
Purely aside from these other developer-built libraries, however, PHP 5 also includes by default a useful library that allows you to perform all of these types of validation tasks by means of a bunch of native filters. Yes, these rather overlooked filters will let you check for integers and float numbers, URLs, email addresses, etc., even more easily than by using your own custom functions. Best of all, they don't require any additional configuration.
Indeed, the use of native PHP filters may contribute significantly to saving time and effort when it comes to validating input data. In this series of articles I'm going to attempt to provide you with a concise guide to how to use them, as usual by way of a decent variety of code samples.
So, now that that you know what to expect from this group of articles, it's time to move forward and start discovering the real power that stands behind using filters in PHP 5. Let's begin now!
{mospagebreak title=Filters available in PHP 5}
Before I start explaining how to use filters in PHP 5, it's convenient to check which of them comes with the PHP distribution. To do this, I'm going to use a pair of handy native functions called "filter_list()" and "filter_id()." The first one will return an array of the existing filters and the second one will retrieve their corresponding IDs.
A simple demonstration of how to use these functions is coded below. Take a look at the following example:
// example on using the 'filter_list()' function
foreach(filter_list() as $id => $filter)
echo '
 Filter Name: ' . $filter . ' ————- Filter ID: ' . filter_id($filter) . '

';
/* displays the following
Filter Name: int ————- Filter ID: 257
Filter Name: boolean ————- Filter ID: 258
Filter Name: float ————- Filter ID: 259
Filter Name: validate_regexp ————- Filter ID: 272
Filter Name: validate_url ————- Filter ID: 273
Filter Name: validate_email ————- Filter ID: 274
Filter Name: validate_ip ————- Filter ID: 275
Filter Name: string ————- Filter ID: 513
Filter Name: stripped ————- Filter ID: 513
Filter Name: encoded ————- Filter ID: 514
Filter Name: special_chars ————- Filter ID: 515
Filter Name: unsafe_raw ————- Filter ID: 516
Filter Name: email ————- Filter ID: 517
Filter Name: url ————- Filter ID: 518
Filter Name: number_int ————- Filter ID: 519
Filter Name: number_float ————- Filter ID: 520
Filter Name: magic_quotes ————- Filter ID: 521
Filter Name: callback ————- Filter ID: 1024
As you can see in the above code sample, the combined use of the "filter_list()" and "filter_id()" functions provides useful information about the filters that are available with the PHP 5 distribution. In this particular case, the name and ID of each filter is displayed on screen via a simple "foreach" construct, which helps you understand each one's functionality.
Of course, from the previous example it's easy to see that there are filters available for checking integers and float numbers, Boolean values and regular expressions, URLs, email and IP addresses, strings and special characters, and so forth. However, since this will be a progressive process, I'm going to discuss each filter in detail in successive tutorials of this series.
At this point you should have some idea of how useful PHP 5 filters can really be for validating incoming data. Therefore, it's time to start an in-depth discussion of the first filter shown by the previous list. It is the one responsible for checking whether a given value is an integer.
This brand new PHP 5 filter will be explored in detail in the next segment. Thus, to learn how to work with it, click on the link below and read the next few lines.
{mospagebreak title=Checking for integer values with the filter PHP extension}
Fortunately, the filter extension comes packaged with a helpful function called "filter_var()."As its name suggests, it applies a specified filter to a given PHP variable. So, since the first step of my plan consists of demonstrating how to check if a value is an integer, I'm going to use the function to perform this task.
Now, look at the following code snippet, which makes use of a new filter named FILTER_VALIDATE_INT that checks for integers:
// example on using the FILTER_VALIDATE_INT filter
$input = '123456';
// check to see if $input is an integer
echo filter_var($input, FILTER_VALIDATE_INT); // displays 123456
As shown above, the "filter_var()" function initially accepts two arguments. The first one is the value that will be filtered and the second one is the filter that will be applied to it. In this introductory example I wish to check if the value of the $input variable is actually an integer, so I use the FILTER_VALIDATE_INT filter.
Also, you should notice that the above example will echo the value 123456 on screen, even when the value passed in to be filtered is in reality a string. This means that the filter doesn't care if the value is numeric or literal, as long as it contains integers.
To demonstrate this concept more clearly, here's another example that uses the FILTER_VALIDATE_INT filter to check a true integer value:
$input = 123456;
// check to see if $input is an integer
echo filter_var($input, FILTER_VALIDATE_INT); // displays 123456
That example was pretty simple to understand, wasn't it? Now, look at the following one, which passes a float number to the filter:
$input = 1.2;
// check to see if $input is an integer
echo filter_var($input, FILTER_VALIDATE_INT); // displays nothing
In this case, the "filter_var()" function will return FALSE and nothing will be displayed on screen, since the value passed to it is a float number. In addition, here are a couple of more readable examples that hopefully will help you grasp more quickly how the FILTER_VALIDATE_INT filter works:
$input = '4.56';
if(filter_var($input, FILTER_VALIDATE_INT) === FALSE) // displays Input is not an integer.
echo 'Input is not an integer.';
echo 'Input is an integer.';
$input = '123456';
if(filter_var($input, FILTER_VALIDATE_INT) === FALSE) // displays Input is an integer.
echo 'Input is not an integer.';
echo 'Input is an integer.';
As you can see in the couple of examples above, the FILTER_VALIDATE_INT filter checks if a given value is an integer or not, when used in conjunction with the "filter_var()" function. However, the filter not only permits you to validate an integer, but determine if it's within a specified range.
This additional functionality provided by the filter will be discussed in the last segment of this tutorial. So please read the following section.
{mospagebreak title=Using the FILTER_VALIDATE_INT filter to check for minimal and maximal values}
Since you learned in the previous segment how to use the FILTER_VALIDATE_INT filter to validate integers, I'm now going to explain another way to use it. This time we'll check not only if a given value is an integer, but if it's within a specified range. How can this be done? It's simple, really; adding an optional array to the "filter_var()" function allows you to specify minimal and maximal boundaries for a determined value.
The following code samples show in a nutshell how to accomplish this task in a truly intuitive way. Take a look at them:
$min = 1;
$max = 99;
$input = 101;
if(filter_var($input, FILTER_VALIDATE_INT, array("options" => array("min_range" => $min, "max_range"=> $max ))) === FALSE) // displays Error: Input must be a value between 1 and 99 (Correct specification for the min and max options)
echo 'Error: Input must be a value between 1 and 99.';
echo 'Input is correct';
$min = 1;
$max = 99;
$input = 101;
if(filter_var($input, FILTER_VALIDATE_INT, array("options" => array("max_range"=> $max ))) === FALSE) // displays Error: Input must be a value between 1 and 99 (Specifies only the max option)
echo 'Error: Input must be a value between 1 and 99.';
echo 'Input is correct';
As I said before, by adding an "options" array to the "filter_var()" function it's possible to check not only if the inputted value is an integer, but if it belongs to a specified range. In the first case, both minimal and maximal boundaries have been specified, while in the second example, only the upper limit has been set.
From the previous code samples, it's easy to see how useful the FILTER_VALIDATE_INT filter can be for validating integers. However, I'm only scratching the surface of the PHP 5 filter library; as you saw at the beginning, it comes packaged with many other handy filters. These will be discussed in successive articles of this series.
Final thoughts
In this initial chapter of the series, I introduced you to using the filter extension that comes included with PHP 5. As you were able to see in all of the code samples included previously, checking to see whether or not a specified value is an integer is an extremely straightforward process thanks to the help of the FILTER_VALIDATE_INT filter.
In the forthcoming article, I'm going to explain how to use the filter extension to validate array elements and to check both octal and hexadecimal integers. Don't miss the next part!

Adobe PageMaker
PageMaker 7.0 running on Mac OS 9
|Original author(s)
|Adobe Systems
|Last release
7.0.2 / 30 March 2004
|Development status
|Operating system
Windows XP and earlier
Mac OS 9
OS/2 v3.01
|Desktop publishing
PageMaker was one of the first desktop publishing programs, introduced in 1985 by Aldus,[2] initially for the Apple Macintosh and, in 1987, for PCs running Windows 1.0.[3] As an application relying on a graphical user interface, PageMaker helped to popularize the Macintosh platform and the Windows environment.[4][5] PageMaker relies on Adobe Systems' PostScript page description language. In 1994, Adobe Systems acquired Aldus and PageMaker.
Release history
Aldus Pagemaker 1.0 was released in July 1985 for the Macintosh and in December 1986 for the IBM PC.[6][7] Aldus Pagemaker 1.2 for Macintosh was released in 1986 and added support for PostScript fonts built into LaserWriter Plus or downloaded to the memory of other output devices.[8] PageMaker was awarded an SPA Excellence in Software Award for Best New Use of a Computer in 1986. In October 1986, a version of Pagemaker was made available for Hewlett-Packard's HP Vectra computers. In 1987, Pagemaker was available on Digital Equipment's VAXstation computers.[9] Aldus Pagemaker 2 was released in 1987. Until May 1987, the initial Windows release was bundled with a full version of Windows 1.0.3; after that date, a "Windows-runtime" with no task-switching capabilities was included.[10][11] Thus, users who did not have Windows could run the application from MS-DOS.
Aldus Pagemaker 3 for Macintosh was shipped in April 1988.[12] PageMaker 3.0 for the PC was shipped in May 1988[13] and required Windows 2.0,[14] which was bundled as a run-time version.[15] Version 3.01 was available for OS/2 and took extensive advantage of multithreading for improved user responsiveness.
Aldus PageMaker 4 for Macintosh was released in 1990 and offered new word-processing capabilities, expanded typographic controls, and enhanced features for handling long documents.[16] A version for the PC was available by 1991. Aldus PageMaker 5.0 was released in January 1993.[17] Adobe PageMaker 6.0 was released in 1995. Adobe PageMaker 6.5 was released in 1996. Support for versions 4.0, 5.0, 6.0, and 6.5 is no longer offered through the official Adobe support system. Due to Aldus' use of closed, proprietary data formats, this poses substantial problems for users who have works authored in these legacy versions. The final version made available is PageMaker 7.0, released 9 July 2001, though updates have been released for the two supported platforms since.
The Macintosh version runs only in Mac OS 9 or earlier; there is no native support for Mac OS X,[18] and it does not run on Intel-based Macs without SheepShaver. It does not run well under Classic, and Adobe recommends that customers use an older Macintosh capable of booting into Mac OS 9. The Windows version supports Windows XP, but according to Adobe, "PageMaker 7.x does not install or run on Windows Vista."[19]
End of development
Development of PageMaker had flagged in the later years at Aldus and, by 1998, PageMaker had lost almost the entire professional market[20] to the comparatively feature-rich QuarkXPress 3.3, released in 1992, and 4.0, released in 1996. Quark stated its intention to buy out Adobe and to divest the combined company of PageMaker to avoid anti-trust issues. Adobe rebuffed the offer and instead continued to work on a new page layout application code-named "Shuksan" (later "K2"), originally started by Aldus, openly planned and positioned as a "Quark killer". This was released as Adobe InDesign 1.0 in 1999.[21][22]
The last major release of PageMaker was 7.0 in 2001, after which the product was seen as "languishing on life support".[23] Adobe ceased all development of PageMaker in 2004 and "strongly encouraged" users to migrate to InDesign, initially through special "InDesign PageMaker Edition" and "PageMaker Plug-in" versions, which added PageMaker's data merge, bullet, and numbering features to InDesign, and provided PageMaker-oriented help topics, complimentary Myriad Pro fonts, and templates.[24] From 2005, these features were bundled into InDesign CS2, which was offered at half-price to existing PageMaker customers.[25][26]

Taking care of yourself includes eating well so you get the right amount of calories to maintain a good weight. You also need enough protein to keep up your strength. Eating well may help you feel better and have more energy.
Sometimes, especially during or soon after treatment, you may not feel like eating. You may be uncomfortable or tired. You may find that foods don't taste as good as they used to. In addition, the side effects of treatment (such as poor appetite, nausea, vomiting, or mouth blisters) can make it hard to eat well.
Your doctor, a registered dietitian, or another health care provider can suggest ways to help you meet your nutrition needs. Also, the NCI booklet Eating Hints has many useful ideas and recipes.

Lorie, big WOW.
I don't know what can I say.
Kit is brilliant - great elements and amazing papers.
You did a perfect job.
CT pages are fabulous.
a pity that I'm not in your CT.
I admire you
Yeah! I am so excited to put these adorable little critters to work on my Christmas pages! Thank you for another truly awesome kit, Lorie!
Wooow, another fantastic kit!
Also your team made a great job!
I wish you Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2012!
I am new here..but so happy I bought this lovely set..Not sure if I was able to download all:) But so cute!!!
Love your sets.Love.
Thank you La Table De Nana.
There has been some confusion about the papers - my fault. You probably have them all. My pages are numbered 1 to 16 and then 21 and 22. That is because I removed pages 17 through 20 and forgot to re-number 21 & 22. If you notice at the top of my product index I list 13 papers with 5 variations. So if you got 18 papers you got them all.
Also some people were looking for the beautiful page MissBehaving used in her layout but that was actually her creative manipulation of one of the pages in the kit. oxox
Such a lovely kit and you CT's layout are pure magic. I'm wishing you a wonderful holiday.
This is really wonderful and fabulous kit.
I hope you and yours are having an absolutely marvelous Christmas!
We live in France, and today is one of the few times I've been glad of the time difference between here and there! LOL I was in time to snag the kit as sale price despite it being early afternoon here :) So glad I bookmarked your blog!
Thank you all and Happy New Year! I hope everyone has recovered from their New Year's Eve festivities. oxox

HONG KONG (Reuters) - Shares of Forgame Holdings Ltd (0484.HK), China's largest developer of Web games, soared more than a third in their Hong Kong trading debut on Thursday, underscoring investor optimism for technology companies that have fueled rallies on the Nasdaq this year.
Foregone's offer generated strong interest from small investors and was priced near the top of a marketing range, raising about $206 million. Investors who missed out on the shares chased the stock on Thursday, sending the stock's value up as much as 36.5 percent, compared with a 0.8 percent rise the technology sub-index on the Hong Kong stock market.
The debut comes on the heels of a 25 percent rally in the technology heavy Nasdaq Composite index .IXIC this year and an even stronger gain in Hong Kong listed technology stocks. Chinese technology stocks are particularly in favor because of the growth outlook for the country's Internet companies, traders said.
"People are over-optimistic on this sector," said Alvin Cheung, associate director at Prudential Brokerage. "Their thinking and prediction is heavily dependent on the market. When the market is okay, they have an automatic positive opinion on the stock, but they can change their minds very, very quickly."
The stock opened at HK$61.75 and traded as high as HK$69.60, compared with the initial public offering price of HK$51.00 each. The deal was marketed in a range of HK$43.50-HK$55.00.
The technology sub-index of Hong Kong-listed companies .TRXFLDHKPTEC has surged 51 percent so far this year, compared with a 2.4 percent gain in the benchmark Hang Seng index .HSI.
The company's offer was swamped by orders from small investors, with the retail portion generating more than 300 times demand than the shares on offer, a company filing said on Wednesday. The institutional tranche of the IPO was "very significantly over-subscribed."
Foregone's strong show is a bright spot in an otherwise grim IPO market in Asia-Pacific, where deal volumes are down 34.4 percent for the first nine months of this year, according to Thomson Reuters data.
The company plans to use about 60 percent of the IPO funds to buy game licenses and for takeovers of other game publishers and developers inside and outside China. Another 20 percent of the proceeds will be used on expand its online and mobile game business, with the remainder used to open offices abroad and on working capital.
The company is controlled by its five founders, with other top shareholders including private equity firm TA Associates and Chinese venture capital company Qiming Venture Partners.
JPMorgan (JPM.N) and Morgan Stanley (MS.N) acted as joint global coordinators for the IPO, with China International Capital Corp and Macquarie (MQG.AX) also working as joint bookrunners.
The banks stand to earn as much as $8.2 million, equivalent to up to 4.5 percent of the proceeds, in commissions and incentive fees. That is among the highest fees paid on an IPO this year in Hong Kong and compares to the up to 6.1 percent in fees China Harmony Auto agreed to pay on its $215 million IPO in June and the up to 8 percent for PanAsialum Holdings' $160 million listing in January.

Dell developing Google Android handset, moles claim
Mobile World Congress outing?
Dell will unveil a smartphone based on Google's Android platform and it'll do so at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) show in Barcelona next month.
At least, that's what unnamed "senior industry sources" cited by UK trade paper Marketing Week claim.
It also admitted Google insiders say that there's no near-future announcement on the calendar.
Google announced the open source, Linux-based Android back in November 2007, and while the platform's pitched as a Google initiative, it has plenty of support, mobile phone majors like Samsung and Motorola among them. Android's tied firmly into Google's online apps, and is essentially a way to get the advertising company's 'word from our sponsor' wares out in front of eyes on the move.
Dell's tried smarphones before, shifting its Axim PDA family into the communictor arena a few years back. But, as HP found with iPaq, there's a preference for phones that provide PDA functions rather than PDAs that can make phone calls, and the Axim line waned and was eventually killed off altogether.
Second time lucky? Well, with an open source foundation, Android - which isn't due to appear until later this year - makes it less expensive for Dell to get back into the phone market. And with former Motorola chief Ron Garriques running its consumer operation, it's better placed to pitch a mainstream device than it was in the Axim era.
Finally, while MWC is well ahead of Android's debut, it's become the pre-eminent event for not only near-term product announcements, but also statements of strategic direction. As such, it would be the ideal arena for Dell to mark its return to the mobile market.

GoLite is of course a very well-known brand by now, especially at the lighter end of the market. They started out with a focus on really lightweight gear, but as they grew in size, they expanded their scope towards the mass-market a bit. Fortunately the Quest and Odyssey packs are still very light and close to the leading edge. The Men's Odyssey is easily the largest pack tested in this trial.
There is a cute little gotcha with the GoLite packs. The bottoms of these packs can be cinched down with two small loops which the new owner may not see at first – and they seem to come already done up. So remember to undo these if you want the full volume! (Yes, I missed them at the start.) Or do them up if you want to reduce the volume near the end of a trip and all your food has been eaten. This is especially useful with the Odysseys.
The measured values for weight were very close to the published values, but the measured values for pack volume were consistently down near only 80% of the published values. It may be that they measured the volume of the large back pocket and the lid pocket when the main bag was empty – that would allow a lot more volume, although it would not be realistic in the field.
The fabric used in all these packs was interesting. It has the handle of a knitted fabric, but it is woven. One could perhaps describe it as a sort of 210 denier Oxford. According to GoLite, the fabrics used recycled nylon. Anyhow, there is a very solid coating on the inside surface, and the fabric does seem to slide across sticks and rocks quite well.
The target market for these packs seem to be the middle of the range. The packs are not exactly cheap and not as rugged as some others – although they are not down at the silnylon-strength by any means. I think they could cope with quite a wide range of uses by quite a wide range of walkers. The Odyssey might find a special use in winter travel, when you have to carry a bit more clothing and sleeping gear. It should cope with the extra volume just fine.
GoLite Quest Pack
|Quest (M)
|Above average
|Tough and light
|Quest (W)
|Above average
|Tough and light
The Quest is one of the lighter GoLite frame packs, and quite close to the leading edge of the cottage industry in terms of volume per weight – but it isn't all that 'light' in absolute terms. However, the extra weight has been put to good use in stronger fabrics and solid back padding, as shown here. The internal frame consists of a thin but very stiff sheet of plastic reinforced by two flat strips of aluminium. The strips come pre-curved, but the curve can easily be modified to suit. What was interesting was that the Men's and Women's models, as delivered, felt very different from each other. The bottom end of the Women's frame (in the lumbar region) was definitely more curved than the Men's. I found the Men's comfortable but the Women's less so; Sue found the reverse (as might be expected). The width of the padding meant that we both got sweaty backs – but the weather was hot at the time.
GoLite Quest (Men's), 1.42 kg (3.12 lb), 57 L (3500 cuin), Medium, Large.
GoLite Quest (Women's), 1.29 kg (2.84 lb), 53 L (3200 cuin), Medium, Large. *Note that a Women's Medium Quest is smaller than the Men's Medium – about that of a Men's Small (which does not exist). In detail, the length of the whole back of the harness is about 540 mm (21.25 in) on the Men's Medium and 500 mm (19.7 in) on the Women's, with the extra length on the Men's being split equally between the height of the hip belt and the rest of the back padding.
When the main bag is full, it tends to bulge into the otherwise large-looking back pocket. I was able to get sitmats and the like in there fairly easily, but nothing particularly lumpy. If the main bag volume is too much, you can cinch the bottom of the bag down: there are those two little straps underneath which seriously restrict the volume of the bottom section. As mentioned above, the claimed volumes for both Quests seemed a bit high compared to many other packs: I had trouble getting all the Test Gear into the main bag on the 62 L Women's model, but that was measured at just 53 L. Exactly why the discrepancy I do not know – unless they measured the volume of the back pocket and the lid pocket with the main bag empty.
The design features a conventional floating lid of adequate size. The back lid straps are anchored half-way down the body, which seems adequate for a range of packings. The lid pocket has the same bulge problem restricting its volume, but it works OK.
The hip belt wings are rather solid things and have pockets, but once the hip belt was curved around my hips there wasn't much room in the pockets. The tips of the shoulder straps on the Men's model were a bit lumpy on me at the start of testing: a small fault. Sue did not notice this problem however, so it may depend on exactly where the tips are on your body. The sternum straps (with that silly whistle) only just reached across me, but they were OK on Sue. The wings of the hip belt are sewn to the main bag, and do not always contact your hips at the corners where they are attached. However, that does not seem to matter.
I know they have separate Men's and Women's models, but apart from the different colour of the trim, the way the aluminium struts are pre-bent, and the obvious different meanings of 'Medium,' I could not see a huge difference between them. I would suggest the prime criterion during selection should be getting the right torso length for you regardless of 'pack gender.'
GoLite Odyssey Pack
|Odyssey (M)
|For those who need VOLUME
|Odyssey (W)
|For those who need VOLUME
The first thing to note about these packs is that they are big on volume (albeit less than claimed). In fact it was a bit of a gamble that this might be so which allowed us to included them in the survey. Both units tested are 'Medium,' but continuing in the established tradition, the Women's Medium is smaller than the Men's Medium, though they are still fairly large. Fortunately, like the Quest packs, these have those two nifty little cinch straps underneath the main bag for reducing its volume. In the photo to the right of the Men's pack in the field, I have the bottom of the pack in its normal or expanded configuration, but that was at the start of the trip with lots of food. In the photo at the top we were on our way back (food mostly eaten), and I had cinched up the bottom of the pack to reduce its volume and get the weight higher on my back.
GoLite Odyssey (Men's), 1.59 kg (3.51 lb) *, 49 L (3000 cuin), Medium, Large.
GoLite Odyssey (Women's), 1.42 kg (3.13 lb), 64 L (3900 cuin), Medium, Large. *Note that Women's Medium is about the size of a Men's Small (which does not exist). The length of the whole back of the harness is about 540 mm (21.25 in) on the Men's Medium and 500 mm (19.7 in) on the Women's, with the extra length on the Men's harness being split equally between the height of the hip belt and the rest of the back padding. This is the same as for the Quest.
For some of the models in this review Sue and I found we could carry the same pack despite a difference in our respective torso lengths of about 3.5 cm (1.5 in). However, in this case Sue found the Men's medium was just a bit too long for her, but the Women's Medium was fine. Our torso difference matches the difference in torso lengths on these packs.
It would be fair to say that the Odyssey is close to being an enlarged Quest. Sure, the back pocket is different, and the Odyssey has a zip at the bottom, around a significant bulge there to give you access into the bottom of the bag, but otherwise – they are quite similar. This is perfectly reasonable.
I have to say that the zip access into the bottom of the main bag strikes me as pretty useless however. If I pack the main bag from the top first there is no way I can get more than a few handkerchiefs into the bottom afterwards. Yes, if I unzip the bottom of the bag when I set up camp I can get at the stuff at the bottom first – but that's not of great value to me. In bad weather, I leave the stuff I've stored at the bottom of my pack safely down there until I get my pack into the tent.
I am normally in the habit of tying the tent on top of the sealed throat and holding it in place with a strap over the throat. Of course, the lid over the top does help restrain the tent as well. In this case I was not really confident that the single strap provided would be reliable enough, although that may be because the main bag was never really full. In the event I did carry the tent like that, and it stayed in place. The lid helped.
This is a mini-review in the 2010 Lightweight Internal Frame Pack State of the Market Report. The articles in this series are as follows (mini-reviews can be found in Part 2), and a subscription to our site is needed to read them.
- Part 1A covers the very basics and lists all the packs in the survey.
- Part 1B covers the frame and harness which carry the pack itself.
- Part 1C covers the main bag and all the other pockets, plus the all-important question of comfort.
- Part 2 in this series covers the individual packs tested.

It definitely feels like summer here. Not quite the dog days yet – there's still a touch of coolness in the air – but sunshine and warmth, hello!
2015-06-24a Summer – index card #summer #seasons
On my walks, I often play with superimposing my memories of other seasons on the present. I look at the leafy trees and remember their stark branches, or the buds, or the colours. I feel the breeze slip through my sandals and think of the clomping of winter boots, the security of wellingtons. And then I think of the colour and the warmth and the sun of the present, and I bring all those things together. It's an interesting thought exercise that makes things even more vibrant. The practice helps me make winters a little bit better too, when I carry the memories of heat and vibrant colours with me.
2015-06-24b What do I want to tweak this summer – index card #summer #seasons
I'll have only so many summers, after all, so maybe I can learn how to fully enjoy them. I wonder what I'll tweak this time around. Maybe I'll focus on eating more fruits and vegetables. I've been treating myself to yummy fruits on sale, and sometimes even when they're regular-price: strawberries, nectarines, peaches… Soon it'll be time for corn on the cob, then melons.
More sitting in the sunshine or shade, too, with friends or solo. Last year I said yes to more time hanging out in parks, and that was quite enjoyable. =) I wonder if any of the cats will put up with being in a harness if that means they'll get to sun themselves on the deck…

LONDON — It's Saturday afternoon in the jam-packed Old Red Lion on London's shopper-crowded St. John Street. Beer-fueled chatter — including some salty heckles — ricochets off the TV screens, while the pub's lone server pours pints of frothy ale in double-quick time. Local soccer team Arsenal is playing, and the game isn't going well.
Nestled among the red-shirted lager lovers are several quiet imbibers, their tables topped with glasses of wine and the occasional well-thumbed paperback. They don't seem to know there's a game on. The reason? This is a pub with two sets of regulars, and the second group is waiting patiently for the matinee performance of "The Revenger's Tragedy" upstairs in the tiny theater.
London is crammed with old-school pubs, several dozen of which are also part of a lesser-known theatrical tradition. Since Shakespeare's time, greasepaint-loving taverns across the city have adapted their spare rooms to host performances for patrons who like to catch a show or two without moving too far from their favorite bar taps.
A permanent fringe movement, this eclectic pub-theater scene thrives, with Londoners and savvy visitors regularly squeezing into 50-seat studios for dramas, comedies, musicals and even operas. And although tickets rarely top $25, quality isn't sacrificed: Kate Winslet and Alan Rickman cut their acting teeth in local pub theaters, so the next breakout star could be just a creaky-floored soliloquy away.
Today, squinting at photos of shows past on the Old Red Lion's walls, I don't spot any Winslets or Rickmans among the stills from "Diary of a Madman" and "The Importance of Being Earnest." But because it's almost 3 p.m., it's time to join the line climbing the carpeted stairs to the theater. Shuffling in, I slide onto a bench in front of the stageless performance area.
Two feet away, a spotlighted actor, studiously ignoring the audience, is doing push-ups. It's like being a fly on the wall while someone goes about his daily business. The raucous pub downstairs is soon forgotten as the doors quietly close and the enveloping silence creates nervous expectation.
There's just time to read the program and discover this actor's extensive résumé of movies, TV shows and stage productions before the house lights drop and we're plunged right in. Watching a play in a theater this small is like being in one of those theme-park flight simulators where you feel every forceful action.
Today's story of betrayal and murderous intent, written by Thomas Middleton in the early 1600s and echoing some of Shakespeare's racier plays, has been updated to the 1980s. Because the space is so tiny, the violence is heightened by proximity. We're so close to the action that when one character lights a cigarette, half the audience coughs.
The staging is sparse, with black walls, a table and several TV screens compensating for the absence of scenery. But it's the frenetic, sometimes vein-popping acting that makes this so gripping, especially during a couple of gruesome death scenes.
At intermission, I unclench my body and stumble downstairs. I could use a drink before Round 2.
Die-hard fans say it's this intimacy and involvement with the performances that lure them to pub theaters. A week later, ahead of me in the Friday night staircase queue at west London's Finborough Theatre are Gene and Ruth Yonuschot of Chapel Hill, N.C., who have been immersing themselves in London's theaters for decades.
The National, Royal Court and Donmar Warehouse appeal to their avant-garde tastes, but these days they also save time for pub venues on their regular visits. And the Finborough, tucked above a wine bar on an anonymous residential street, is a long-established favorite.
"We were looking for something on a Sunday 15 years ago, and we took a gamble on this place," Ruth says as we file in to snag our cushioned bench seats. "The performances were incredible, and we've been here about 10 times since.
Her husband adds, "These smaller theaters are just brilliant, and we tell people about them all the time. So long as you do your research and know where the pubs are and which Tube stop or bus route to take, they are always worth it."
Tonight's performance is much less physical than "The Revenger's Tragedy." But while the play, "A Life" by Hugh Leonard, starts gently, I'm soon riveted by the bittersweet story of an old man recalling the missed opportunities and failed relationships of his life. It's complete with flashback scenes of his younger self, and it's surprisingly moving and feels, at times, like a Beckett or Pinter play.
The performances, especially from rain-coated veteran Hugh Ross (who has appeared in hundreds of professional productions and films as diverse as "Trainspotting" and "The Iron Lady"), are natural and engrossing. Themes raised by the narrative are rich enough to fuel a few of my own pub conversations with friends for years to come.
Later, strolling the rain-slicked streets to the Earl's Court Underground station, I mull how these greasepaint taverns differ from the larger London theaters I typically attend. There's one crucial distinction.
My budget usually allows me to sit in the nosebleed sections of large auditoriums, where it's easy to feel like a disinterested spectator. But in pub theaters, there are few bad seats, and the in-your-face approach means you can't avoid feeling connected to the story and the actors relating it. Which is why on my next trip I'll be back in search of the next generation of Winslets and Rickmans.

Lower Malaria Risk in Children Receiving Lopinavir/Ritonavir-Based Compared to NNRTI-Based ART
March/April 2012
Children with HIV in sub-Saharan Africa have significant morbidity and mortality risk from malaria. Interventions including bed nets and cotrimoxazole are not sufficient to decrease the risk in this population.
HIV and malaria parasites both encode aspartic class proteases, offering the possibility that HIV protease inhibitors (PIs) might have antimalarial properties. Furthermore, in vitro studies have demonstrated some activity against Plasmodium falciparum with PIs.
In an oral presentation, Jane Achan from Uganda presented findings from a study conducted by investigators from Makerere University College of Health Sciences and Infectious Diseases Research Collaborations in Kampala and the University of California, San Francisco, to compare the efficacy of lopinavir/ritonavir (LPV/r)-based and NNRTI-based ART regimens on malaria risk reduction in HIV positive children.
The study was a randomised open label trial of 170 children with a median age of 3 years of age (range 2 months to 6 years) conducted in Tororo, Uganda between September 2009 and July 2011. The children were either, ART-naive (approximately 70%) and eligible for treatment, or receiving NNRTI-based ART and virologically suppressed (<400 copies/mL). They were randomised to receive either NNRTI- or LPV/r-based ART and followed for 2 years. All children received bed nets and cotrimoxazole and treatment for uncomplicated malaria with artemether- lumefantrine, the standard of care in Uganda and many African countries.
Following malaria diagnosis, the children attended the clinic on days 1, 2, 3, 7, 14, 21 and 28. Lumefantrine levels were measured on day 7 as this has been shown to be an independent predictor of malaria.
The analysis was ITT and the investigators compared the incidence of malaria between the study arms using Poisson regression. Dr Achan reported a 41% reduction in malaria associated with LPV/r-based ART, see Table 1.
Table 1: Comparison of Malaria Risk NNRTI vs LPV/r
PYAR= person years at risk
When the investigators looked at possible explanations for this reduction, they found a 29% non-significant direct effect of LPV/r on the childrens first episode of malaria HR 0.71 (95% CI 0.45-1.12), p=0.14. An evaluation of the risk of recurrent malaria following treatment with artemether-lumefantrine, however, found LPV/r associated with a 54% reduction in risk HR 0.4 (95% CI 0.22 -0.76), p=0.004.
Median lumafantine levels on day 7 were 926 (IQR 473 1910) ng/mL vs 200 (IQR 108 510) ng/mL in the LPV/r vs NNRTI arms respectively, p<0.001, which Dr Achan explained might be associated with the boosting effect of ritonavir.
Dr Achan summarised the possible reasons for the lower risk observed in the LPV/r arm as follows:
She concluded: "This study highlights the possibility of pharmacoenhancement as a tool for reducing the burden of malaria in highly endemic settings."
These data are interesting. Conversations after the session suggested that this study adds to the argument for recommending LPV/r- based ART for all infants and young children, but the issue of resistance was also raised with one drug in a combination having a prolonged half-life.

The "Snow Cone" is somewhat of a mythical event to experience. A snow on Cone Peak is not rare in itself, but rather the ability to experience and capture a fresh snow. Most years have snow on Cone Peak, and sometimes multiple times per year, but as I will describe, they are virtually always difficult to forecast more than a day in advance and the snow is fleeting and hard to capture. Timing is therefore very important to get the full winter wonderland effect (with trees and vegetation cloaked in snow) above the spectacular Big Sur coast. When it all comes together, standing in fresh snow while marveling at the turquoise and blue waters of the Pacific Ocean thousands of feet below indeed feels like something out of a dream or mythology! The challenges of timing a Snow Cone reminds me of growing up in the Seattle area wishing for lowland snow. As with the Snow Cone, there were many more teases than actual snow storms in the Seattle area, but when the ingredients came together it was always magical. In many ways, the forecasting challenges for lowland snow in Western Washington and Cone Peak are similar and I'm just as fascinated now as when I was young.
I've been captivated by the possibility of a Snow Cone for some time. I'd seen enough from others who'd witnessed past events to know that it was something special and an event that I wanted to experience for myself but I also knew that if timed correctly it could be that much more amazing. Along the way I've sought to understand what weather patterns might make for a good Snow Cone in order to be at the right place at the right time when an opportunity presents itself. The drought got in the way of my plans for a few years but I finally got the opportunity to implement some of this knowledge during Snow Cones on January 21st and January 24th. In particular, the snow on January 24th measured 15 inches on the summit with snow down to 2,500 feet, the most significant snow in many years. The winter wonderland we encountered even exceeded my dreams. The following is a discussion of some of the science behind what it takes to get a Snow Cone. Note that these are just the thoughts and observations of a weather enthusiast and I have no formal training in meteorology. Also please note that all photos are © Leor Pantilat, All Rights Reserved. Please request permission for any use.
At 5,164 feet one might guess that the summit of Cone Peak receives quite a bit of snow, both in terms of number of events per year and aggregate number of inches. However, this is not the case since there are many counteracting factors that turn many promising snow events into merely teases. For a Snow Cone you need the ingredients – namely cold air and moisture – to come together just right. If you continue reading, you'll see there are a number of moving parts that make it challenging to get these two ingredients together at the same time. Then, assuming a snow does happen, it's sometimes a challenge to obtain the visibility of the coast from the summit. In my opinion, it's not the same if the mountain is stuck in a cloud. What makes a snowfall on Cone Peak so unique is the ocean vistas and while certainly not a requirement of a Snow Cone, having visibility of the coast elevates the experience to another level.
Snow Cone is a fairly infrequent event. I'd estimate that a "normal" season probably sees a handful of times where the summit receives more than a dusting and one to two events in the 6-8 inch range on the summit. Any event that exceeds 8 inches on the summit or drops snow below 3,000 ft happens much less frequently and cannot be counted on every season. In fact, using the term "normal" may be somewhat of a misnomer considering California's climate which swings wildly between drought and big winters. In fact, one of the winters in the recent drought likely did not even have one snow event the entire season. On the other hand, "big" winters with a persistent flow out of the Gulf of Alaska may see several good snow events. A snow Cone is possible as early as the end of November, but the season really only gets started in January with the best possibilities residing in January through mid March.
Any discussion of Snow Cone needs to start with geography. The summit of Cone Peak is only 3 miles from the coast making it the steepest gradient from ocean to summit in the contiguous United States. This topography is what makes Cone so special. However, since the mountain is essentially right over the ocean that is a problem for snow prospects. Even in January the ocean temperature is typically in the mid 50s. Water holds heat better than land does and it therefore warms the air above it. Thus, the Pacific Ocean has an enormous moderating effect on coastal temperatures. Right at the coast temperatures are very mild even in the heart of winter and also mild in the middle of summer with a persistent marine layer. With onshore flow out of the south or southwest, warmer maritime air envelops the summit and snow is out of the question.
The next problem is that Cone Peak is not a naturally cold spot. Colder air from elsewhere is needed. Cone Peak resides at a relatively south latitude with a Mediterranean climate characterized by hot, dry summer and cool, wet winters. I would go so far as to say that most of the year is warm to hot on Cone, especially on its sun-baked south facing slopes. Even during the winter it's rarely cold. Most of the precipitation that falls on Cone occurs during warmer "Atmospheric River" events that pull in copious moisture from the subtropics and raise snow levels well above the summit. The vast majority of snow events are "fringy" meaning that the temperature on the summit is just barely cold enough to snow. Even when it does snow, it is almost always very fleeting. Once the sun comes out it's only a matter of hours before the south facing slopes melt out and the snow and ice drop from the trees and chaparral. With a big enough snow the north facing slopes will hold onto snow on the ground quite a bit longer, but the chaparral vegetation and trees will start dropping snow from their limbs as soon as the sun comes out and temperatures rise above freezing.
So how does it get cold enough to snow? The answer is usually not arctic air. It is very rare for continental arctic air masses originating in Canada to reach Cone Peak's latitude on the central California coast. The path of least resistance for these air masses is east of the Rocky Mountains, but even when the cold air manages to sneak through the Rockies, it still has to get over the Cascades and the Sierra Nevada. That means there are several barriers impeding the progress of these cold air masses. Due to these challenges, I'd estimate that a modified arctic front only reaches Cone Peak once every five years or so. When these fronts do reach central California the next problem is moisture. These systems tend take an inland trajectory more often than not which usually means they are moisture starved. The northern end of the Santa Lucias can be efficient at squeezing out snow in these scenarios, but Cone lies in an unfavorable "snow shadowed" position in this situation. When the already-rare arctic front happens to swing off the Northern California coast and gather moisture off the Pacific, this becomes the textbook setup for low elevation snowfalls in coastal California. However, there's a reason snow is so rare in San Francisco and Monterey. That's because arctic fronts are rare as-is and then to have them swing offshore just enough to gather moisture (but not too much to warm the air up) is even more rare. Despite the rarity, history has been marked with just this sort of event many times, and it seemingly happened more in the past with several records of measurable snow in downtown San Francisco in the late 1800s, 1951 and 1976 from just this sort of pattern. While it's been 40 years since this pattern came together just right to produce snow in San Francisco, arctic fronts are always something to watch for and the December 2008 snow was associated with an arctic front. That said, arctic fronts do not happen frequently enough to be considered the primary producer of a Snow Cone.
So if it's not from the arctic where do the ingredients for a Snow Cone usually come from? The answer is the Gulf of Alaska. These systems tend to be much more reliable in the moisture department as they take an over-water trajectory. They also tend to occur with much greater frequency in a normal winter (the drought years were a notable exception when it seemed like years passed without a strong Gulf of Alaska storm). However, with Gulf of Alaska systems, since the cold air is of maritime origins it's usually more cool rather than cold. In most cases this takes lowest elevation snow out of the equation, but the snowline with these systems is more nuanced as a strong enough Gulf of Alaska system with a low pressure tracking to just the right spot can lower the snow level to 2,500 feet or even lower.
Gulf of Alaska systems come in many flavors that have consequences on snow possibilities. These systems typically include a cold front moving down the coast which will draw up warmer air ahead of the front from the south and southwest. Most of the heavier precipitation usually resides ahead the frontal band and, frustratingly, it's going to be too warm in this sector of the storm. Once the frontal band passes the wind direction turns to northwesterly and this allows the cooler air out of the Gulf of Alaska to filter in. Within this cool, unstable air resides cumulus and showers. If this transition to cooler air is prompt, then these showers can start producing snowfall over the summit soon after frontal passage. It helps if there has been preceding systems already establishing cool air over the region so the warm sector of the system is brief. If the cooler air takes its time to arrive it's likely not a good sign for a Snow Cone. Once the front passes and the cooler air has arrived attention turns to the "shower game" which can be equally frustrating. Not all Gulf of Alaska systems have a deep reservoir of showers after the front passes. Many times there isn't enough moisture in the post-frontal airmass to produce more than hit and miss showers once the cool air has arrived. Other times the trajectory of the shower flow is out of the northwest which is a great setup for the northern Santa Lucias like Ventana Double Cone and Chews Ridge, but once again Cone Peak is "snow shadowed" by these peaks to its north. For post-frontal showers to be successful for Cone Peak the flow of showers needs to be more from the west and it needs to be fairly strong with a lot of post-frontal shower activity.
After the frontal band passes things get more interesting when discussing the track of the low pressure. Most times the parent low will track north into the Pacific Northwest but sometimes with a deep and digging trough over the western United States the low will descend into the base of the trough by sliding down the coast and moving inland over Big Sur or to the south. The low serves as a mechanism to organize shower activity and produce heavier snowfall and is entirely within the cold part of the system. The success of this type of setup is highly sensitive to the track of the low. A track too far north may draw up warmer from the south and southwest and raise snow levels too high. A track too far south or offshore will take away the moisture to make snow. Thus, a track that either closely parallels the coast or comes in just to the south is likely ideal. This Goldilocks setup does not happen very often but when it does you can get lower elevation snowfall and heavier snow totals up top.
In late winter and early spring instead of frontal bands coming out of the Gulf of Alaska, the systems sometimes take on the form of a cutoff low, which is a low that has been cutoff from the basic westerly flow. Instead of a widespread precipitation event with a well-defined frontal band, these cutoff lows can sit off the coast quasi-stationary for a day or longer and spin up showers. It can be quite cold underneath these lows and if they are positioned correctly they can result in substantial snow over Cone Peak along with hail and thunderstorms at lower elevations. In fact, these cutoff lows are responsible for many of the late season snows in March and April. Since the cold air is typically confined to right underneath the low, once the low does "eject" the temperatures usually warm up rapidly.
The final type of Snow Cone doesn't originate in the Gulf of Alaska or the arctic. Sometimes systems will come directly out of the west with a low making landfall somewhere on the central coast. As Cone Peak is on the cooler north side of such a system and the air flow can become weakly offshore (cutting off the moderating influence of the Pacific) the air can be marginally cold enough for a higher elevation snow event (generally above 4k) and possibly lower if there is some antecedent cooler air in place.
If all of the ingredients line up correctly then Cone can be an efficient snow producer and create a unique and magical winter wonderland. In a matter of hours 6-8+ inches can accumulate. The northwest facing Devils Canyon is masterful at orographically enhancing precipitation and generating clouds. If it's below freezing and the mountain is in a cloud rime ice begins to build up on vegetation within these clouds despite the fact that there are no higher based clouds and precipitation. After several hours the ice can accumulate to impressive amounts, particularly on the very exposed ridge lines, as manifested by an event on January 21st that produced 2-3 inches of ice accumulation.
Let's assume the ingredients came together and a snowfall happened. The next problem is visibility and whether there will be any. Being so close to the moist environment of the Pacific Ocean, it's often a difficult task to clear the mountain of clouds. Even if the mountain is clear in the morning, cumulus development in the afternoon is a good bet if a substantial snow has occurred and onshore flow persists. On some occasions a dry northerly wind will follow a snow and blow away all the clouds, but these winds might also blow the snow off the vegetation. Other times the mountain is socked in for the entire day after a snow. For me personally, what makes a Snow Cone so special is the proximity to the ocean and having the visibility to the ocean takes it to another level. Thus, not only is timing the snow important, but also timing the breakout from the clouds!
The January 24th snow event produced 15 inches of snow on the summit of Cone Peak with spots along the north ridge approaching 2 feet. These totals are significant and have not been seen in several years (likely back to 2011 or 2008). This was a classic Gulf of Alaska storm that was the the final system of three. The preceding two systems served to progressively cool the atmosphere. In fact, it was already cold enough to produce 2-3 inches of rime rice and 4+ inches of snow with the second storm on January 21st. On Saturday evening, January 21st, the frontal band with third storm approached but precipitation fell as rain in the pre-frontal band with strong onshore flow out of the south and southwest drawing up warmer air. However, temps on the summit only rose into the mid 30s as the warm sector was brief and once the front passed early Sunday morning it did not take much to lower the snowline back below the summit. In addition, the post-frontal shower game with this third system was especially strong. There would be a constant stream of moisture flowing into the Santa Lucias in the cold and unstable environment. The topography of Cone Peak would only serve to enhance these showers and since the showers were coming out of the west the mountain would not be "snow shadowed" by peaks to the north. The showers in the post-frontal environment were most numerous Sunday night when around 1 inch of liquid precipitation fell as snow on the summit (~10 inches). Snow levels during this part of the storm were around 4,000 feet. There was a bit of a break during the day Monday, January 23rd, but the snow was not done. The parent low would track down the coast during the day and spread showers back over Cone Monday night. The track of this low and the timing at night allowed snow levels to come down to 2,500 ft. Showers produced snow accumulations of 2 inches at 3,000 feet and around 5 inches on the summit (on top of the 10 inches already fallen). Chilly temperatures at around 26 degrees on the summit (as determined by the temperatures recorded at the comparable Chews Ridge weather station) allowed for higher snow to liquid ratios with unusually light and fluffy snow for the Ventana. This final burst of snow on Monday night was largely responsible for creating the winter wonderland scene that we experienced on Tuesday morning. The low ended up weakening as it continued south and largely stayed offshore during the day Monday resulting in clearing skies on Tuesday morning. Had the low stayed closer to the coast or swung inland over Big Sur snow totals would have likely been even higher, but then we wouldn't have had the beautiful clear skies in the morning

Another week has gone by, despite my all best, chocolate-covered, intentions of coming here and sharing the wonderful escape we had last weekend.
How we did absolutely nothing but lie in incredibly squashy lounge chairs, take dips in the pool and sea, have naps in our white canopy bed, and sigh contentedly at doing absolutely nothing away from absolutely everything.
How the place we found to hide away was filled with a charming, eclectic mix of faded rugs, native lamps, grandfather chairs, chandeliers, and an old-school snooker table.
How there was only one other couple there, so we pretty much had the place to ourselves. Aside from a saucy little kitty with a gold collar and a friendly bunch of dogs who watched over us. And two adorable puppies.
How they had their own organic herb and vegetable garden with the hand painted signs in Spanish.
How the manager is also the cook and she made us freshly baked bread every morning.
How we hardly looked at the menu…just chatted with the cook every day about what was the fresh catch, whether we should have prawns or crabs or fish (we had all three), how we should prepare our spanking fresh seafood, and what vegetables to pair with it – all we had to do is sit back and enjoy awesome meals on a terrace fronting the sea, with nothing but distant islands and a few fishermen's boats dotted about.
How I finally saw Mayon Volcano!
How there was fresh flowers all around, even if we were practically the only ones there.
How many avocado shakes I had.
How, despite it being rainy season, the only time it rained was when we napped.
How I really wish we could've stayed longer.
Hope these photos give you an idea…happy weekend kind folk!
