Dear real estate brokers
Sorry to say it, but you're in trouble. And as far as we're concerned, it's pretty much your own fault
December 22, 2010 3:18 by shafeer
Dear real estate broker,
Sorry to be blunt about things, but apparently, you are in trouble. According to Emirates 24-7, "A combination of factors – technological and commercial – is threatening the very existence of the real estate brokers and agents in the UAE."
You are in danger of extinction, as landlords want to ensure maximum yield, and tenants want to ensure cheapest possible rent, and that is driving both parties to cut out the middle man (that's you). Meanwhile technological innovations – ie the internet – are providing a platform for the two to meet up. A clutch of blogs, social networks and e-communities are facilitating direct contact, apparently, all without you to lend a hand.
Aw, diddums.
But what's this? You are fighting back. You say your services are indispensible – all transactions should happen through certified agents to ensure parties are protected under law. Doing a direct deal is not a safe proposition, as one of your number, Parvees Gafur, Chief Executive Officer, PropSquare Real Estate, says: "You don't find the 'real' deals and opportunities this way. Today's agents in the market are Rera certified professionals, they are trained and qualified to cover all aspects of a property transaction. We have had a few experiences in the past where deals done in similar nature either had fallen half way through, or problems arise when it was completed," he said.
There's just one problem: In Kipp's lengthy experience, you have, to a man, been inefficient, careless, rude, and unhelpful. And worse than that, at the sign of any dispute or trouble, you have proved yourselves unfailingly useless. Your options, it seems, are always twofold – say it's nothing to do with you, or do everything in your power to protect the landlord. It is no wonder that tenants seek to cut you out of the loop, since you charge a very hefty fee for generally doing nothing other than make everything much worse for them.
If tenants are finding a way past the middle man, and landlords are being forced to let them, so be it. If you want to get back in on the action, maybe in future you could up the service levels.
Best regards,

LOGANSPORT — City planning department to work on neighborhood plan for area between Clifton and Michigan avenues
In the mostly owner-occupied houses just north of Logansport Community Hospital, people are satisfied with many of the neighborhood's characteristics. Logansport city planners want to make sure that stays the case — but residents' satisfaction and pride in their neighborhood has already impressed a senior housing developer.
Arin Shaver, city-county planning director, said the city is working on a neighborhood plan for the area north from Ottawa to Jackson streets between Michigan and Clifton avenues. It's the first neighborhood in Logansport to be the focus of neighborhood planning, according to Shaver.
"It's not going to be a redevelopment plan," she said. "It'll probably turn out to be just a neighborhood plan" that arranges for infrastructure improvements, like sidewalk and curb cut maintenance, to maintain the existing nature of the area.
"I think basically we're sticking with the same ideas that everybody has in that neighborhood," she said.
Shaver invited the area's residents to a neighborhood redevelopment plan meeting last Thursday to ask them what was good about the neighborhood and what needed to be improved.
Only two residents showed up. The two women were neighbors that lived on the south end of the area, near the hospital.
Shaver isn't sure why more people didn't attend.
"I still think we got a lot accomplished," she said. "The two that came were very vocal, and sometimes you have multiple people at meetings, but they're not very vocal."
Linda Gordon, 60, said she had no problem stating her frank opinion of living in the area between Michigan and Clifton. It was a positive one.
"Everyone gives a heads up to the other neighbors and everyone keeps an eye out," she said. "It's like a small community in a block. Everyone kind of knows everyone, you may not be the best of friends but you always smile and greet one another."

4Octomom Had A Super Sweet Weekend
You see that picture? You see what Octomom is doing up there? She's pretending to breastfeed a couple of baby dolls. Because that's what Octomom did on Friday night: she went to a drag show in New York, popped out her titties, and breastfed baby dolls.
She also let the baby dolls get a few sips of vodka before she started her main event: a clip from her porno flick.
But hey, here's another photo of that breastfeeding:
Where is this woman's Mother of the Year award? Presented for her mothering of the baby dolls, of course, not her actual children.

Wolf Blitzer delivers the most important breaking news and political, international, and national security stories of the day. Tune to The Situation Room weekdays 5-6:30pm ET on CNN.
Pres. Obama was slammed by critics after saying, "We don't have a strategy yet," on Syrian airstrikes. In an interview with Wolf Blitzer, White House press secretary Josh Earnest follows up and explains what the President was trying to say.
He was a normal American man from south Florida, but when video appeared of him blowing himself up for al Qaeda's affiliate in Syria, he shocked the world. Now, new video has surfaced of Moner Mohammad Abusalha, the American suicide bomber, and CNN's Tom Foreman explain what insight it gives us inside homegrown terrorists.
U.S. officials have identified a second man who may have been killed fighting along ISIS terrorists - and there has been a recent rise in the number of radicalized Americans heading overseas to fight for jihadist organizations. CNN's Brian Todd reports.
As Texas Governor Rick Perry and his legal team ask a judge to throw out a felony indictment alleging he abused his power, CNN is digging deeper into the charges against him - and finding a web of partisan politics, old grudges and a drunken driving arrest. CNN's Drew Griffin investigates.
As the Obama administration weighs airstrikes against ISIS terrorists in Syria, officials are concerned at the jihadist group's growing strength, impressive tacticts and "uncanny" discipline. Brian Todd reports on ISIS becoming stronger and more capable.
Brian also took to Twitter to answer your questions on ISIS. Here's a recap.
In a speech before the American Legion, President Obama details how his administration will rectify shortfalls in caring for veterans - even as a new report slams the VA for its deadly wait lists. CNN's Jim Acosta reports.
After an American man was killed fighting with ISIS in Syria, there are new reports that other Americans are joining the lethal terror group. CNN's Brian Todd reports.
New statistics from the FAA show a sharp increase in near-collisions of passenger planes. CNN's René Marsh reports on the alarming new numbers.
British authorities say they are close to identifying the ISIS terrorist who executed American James Foley in that brutal video. CNN's Brian Todd takes you inside the investigation.
The Ferguson community, along with family members, celebrities and civil rights leaders, gather to remember Michael Brown in a celebration that was as much a mournful funeral as it was a call to action. CNN's Don Lemon reports.

UPDATE: After reading some of the comments below, I'm inclined to think this guy is trying to pull a fast one.
Swan Fungus of WFMU's Beware of The Blog writes about a strange CD-r he found while hiking in Joshua Tree a couple of years ago. He writes, "I have played this CD for record scum collector friends and pop culture junkies in the hopes that someone might recognize something about it, from a riff to a clip from some television show or movie. The only constant is that no one knows what to make of it." You can listen to the tracks here.
The last place I ever expected to find an unlabeled CD-r filled with music would be in the middle of the fucking desert. But nearly two years ago I was hiking in Joshua Tree and I came across a completely surreal sight: an old-school 5 1/4" computer floppy disk. It appeared to have been tossed casually near the side of the trail I was on, housed in a simple plastic baggie. I reached into the bag and pulled out the floppy disc. I noticed that the magnetic tape inside the plastic case had been replaced by a recordable compact disc. The disc had a creepy message scrawled on it which read, "A silvery female voice breaking through onto the airband sang in German, 'We are from another world, but you have cut us out". I don't believe in ghosts or extraterrestrials or anything, but standing in the middle of nowhere reading that line was enough to send me into a miniature freak out. What's more, a folded-up piece of paper was also buried inside the plastic cover. A treasure map. Browned edges and everything. It featured a pirate ship (?), a series of footsteps through mountains and palm trees (?), one red X, and ten blue X's. One of of the X's appeard to be floating in the middle of a body of water.
I listened to the recording on my drive back to LA that night. It was indescribably weird. The dedication to the floppy disk case, chicken scratch message, and treasure map implied that someone with way too much time on his or her hands crafted it. The insanity of the recording -- with one or two kind of pretty moments -- mirrored the obsessively constructed feel of the package. I didn't know if I was listening to the work of a mad genius or a deranged psychopath. The sounds are a combination of heavily processed human voices and schizophrenic space music. The 11 tracks are very short, with only four "tunes" lasting longer than three minutes. Most are in the thirty-second to two-minute range in length. I wouldn't call it "rock," but it's guitar-centric. I also wouldn't say that it is very good, but it made for an interesting listen.

The consistency king
Philadelphia, PA (Sports Network)
- Maybe it's because he's played his entire career within shouting distance of the Canadian border, or because he had a 3.9 ypc average in his first 73 NFL games, but Seattle Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch is criminally underrated.
Perhaps Sunday's 11-carry, 128-yard, three-touchdown performance against the Cardinals will finally get him noticed, but that's not likely. The only thing anyone is going to remember from that game is the final score: 58-0. And maybe how poor Arizona's quarterback situation is.
But Lynch deserves better for his terrific run of consistency going back to Week 4 of 2011. The running back has played 25 games since then. Do you know how many weeks he wasn't a fantasy factor in that span? Two.
His numbers in that time frame -- 508 carries, 2,353 yards, 21 touchdowns -- are fantastic but it's his week-to-week invariability that's most impressive. Sure, everyone loves explosions like Sunday's three-TD game, but those 19- carry, 44-yard performances like Chris Johnson had Sunday are as damaging as the breakouts are helpful.
It wasn't always this way. Lynch ran for 1,000 yards in each of his first two NFL seasons after the Buffalo Bills drafted him 12th overall in 2007 out of California, but he needed 530 carries (4.1 ypc) to do it. He also missed four games over those two years.
Lynch had a tumultuous 2009 season in which he was suspended for the first three games after pleading guilty to a misdemeanor gun charge. He lost his job to the undrafted Fred Jackson in late November and finished with 450 yards on 120 carries. He was gone from Buffalo after four games in 2010, traded to Seattle, where he was decent but unspectacular in 12 games.
Aside from the "Beast Mode" 67-yard touchdown run that helped 7-9 Seattle upset the Saints in the first round of the 2010 playoffs, there wasn't many signs to indicate this run was coming, especially after Lynch started out with 117 yards on 38 carries (3.1 ypc) last season.
However, he's since embarked on a 25-game stretch in which he's had at least 85 yards rushing or a touchdown 23 times, including the final 12 games last season and 11 of 13 games this year.
Sunday's game against Arizona served as both Lynch's highest-yardage and his lowest-carry game of the season. He ran for 11.6 yards per carry but had a long of just 33 yards, which should tell you how dominant he was even from carry-to- carry Sunday.
Lynch is now second in the NFL in rushing with 1,266 yards this season, and third in yards per carry (4.9) among players with at least 200 rushes despite dealing with nagging back spasms all season, including Sunday when he had to exit in the second quarter before returning for more.
Despite all of these achievements, Lynch rarely gets mentioned among the top running backs in the game -- real or fantasy -- but I think I know why.
Nobody ever talks about the bus that's always on time, or the train that gets you to your destination exactly when the schedule says. We spend all our time complaining about the late bus and the delayed train.
These past 25 games, Lynch has simply been on time, week after week.

Robinson handed two-year doping ban
ESPN Staff
February 19, 2014
Rotherham player William Robinson has received a two-year ban for an anti-doping violation.
Robinson tested positive for Clomiphene, a hormone and metabolic modulator and a prohibited substance, at an out-of-competition test in July last year.
A three-man disciplinary panel suspended Robinson, who admitted the offence, from August 13, 2013 - the date of an original temporary suspension - until August 13, 2015.

Man to plead guilty to charges he lived under Salem home, video recorded woman for two days
Christian Hobbs, 44, of Orleans, Mass. filed an intent to plead guilty to charges that he secretly recorded a woman in her bathroom while living under her trailer for two days. (COURTESY)
Christian Hobbs, 44, of Orleans, Mass., filed his intention to plead guilty during a brief court hearing on Friday just before he was set to go on trial in Rockingham County Superior Court.
Hobbs was indicted in November on 10 charges including burglary, violation of privacy and attempted interception of telecommunications or oral communications prohibited.
Terms of the plea deal have not yet been made public. Hobbs is expected back in court on May 24 for a plea-and-sentencing hearing.
Hobbs, who is being held at the Rockingham County jail, told police that he had been living under the trailer for two days prior to getting caught on Aug. 15.
Hobbs lived in the Salem trailer before moving to Massachusetts, according to police.
Prosecutors say Hobbs sold the trailer to his victim about two years ago. He returned in July to do some repairs when he allegedly set two baby monitors inside the home. One was in the bedroom, the other in a dryer duct.
About a month later, Hobbs allegedly set up camp under the trailer near a bathroom air duct, bringing with him food, beverages and tissues – observing and recording the woman when she was in the bathroom, police said.
At one point, the woman spotted some movement and discovered Hobbs staring up at her through the air vent. Police say Hobbs responded by saying "Hello."
The woman called 911 and responding police found Hobbs walking south on Route 28.
Hobbs allegedly admitted he was under the trailer. Investigating officers found that 16 videos had been recorded of the woman.

The Lucid was 79$ as someone said before, and to the average user, has nearly the same specs as the Dinc4G. Most people won't care about the S4 processor because they won't know what it means. 149$ is a lot more reasonable because at 199$ you can get a seemingly higher spec'd phone. I still think it could be priced lower than 149$. And no problem!

Eh it's not too thick. Not as thick as a 3300mAh case would be. That would make the phone more of a brick than the Rezound. Also! If HTC is already selling accessories, I doubt launch is two weeks away. Why would they start selling accessories for it two weeks before it comes out? I still think launch is within the week. We have so many leaks already, it just really makes me doubt that VZW will wait another two weeks when they clearly already have everything set for an announcement. I could be wrong though, I just don't see any reason to wait 2 weeks to announce it. I could be completely wrong though. Who knows what Big Red's tactics are?

The 1700mAh stock battery should give really good battery life, and the extended battery will be more than plenty. I don't think this phone needs a huge 3300mAh battery because it has the S4 processor. I do admit, a larger battery could have been nicer. We can always wait for an unofficial extended battery

With the release of R2 for SCCM 2012, Microsoft has introduced Dynamic Variables. These will allow for If/Then statements in the build process without having to have multiple build steps. Dynamic variables can be set via the General steps. Below is a simple example where I am looking for the IsDesktop task sequence variable to be true.

Day 5, Charlotte to Baltimore drive

We stopped for lunch in Roanoke Virginia and checked out the second biggest man made star and a great overlook of Roanoke valley! Afternoon has been better and less than 160 miles to Baltimore!

Historical Traveler Reviews Omni Charlottesville
Great location
Nice hotel with free parking in probably the best location in Charlottesville. On the downtown mall and 20 min walk ( or 3 min drive) to university. Staff was pleasant and helpful and room was spacious and nicely appointed.
Very OUTDATED!!!
My husband and I choose the hotel fro it's name and we had our room updated to a suite for the weekend stay. I was Very Disappointed once we walked in the room, I had thought the suite would have been one large room not two separate (the suite consited of an ajoining room with sitting area and bathroom). The decor was horribly outdated, I was almost mad of the appearance. The service we had was fine the rooms itself was awful. If you are looking for a nice hotel to stay in this is not it. Try the Boars Head Inn....
Great home away from home
I have stayed at the Omni for two weeks in late June for each of the last three years. Each stay has been excellent!
Not 4 Star Hotel
Not the 4 star hotel listed in AAA. We were givena hotel room above the pool. Smell of chlorine wasgoing through the air condition vent. They did makearrangements for another room. The 2nd room wasmuch smaller, and had a musty smell. The room hadan air purifer plugged in to clear up the musty odor, but definately not a 4 star room. Very disappointedin accommodations. Would not stay there again!!
Good place, great location
The Omni is a pleasant, if unremarkable, establishment. Pluses include its cheerful, accomodating staff, an ideal location at one end of Charlottesville's charming downtown pedestrian mall and free on-site guest parking. Minuses: We overheard conversations (not shouting) from an adjoining suite, and the breakfast buffet offered as part of our weekend package was just OK. Request a room with a view of the atrium, the mall or the Blue Ridge mountains.
Wonderful "Get Away" weekend
Could not have asked for better accomodations. Service, food and location were excellent. Thanks, Omni for a wonderful experience.
"Stay Somewhere Else" is insane. My room was perfect. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Food was excellent. Coming to C'ville? Stay here!
Good stay
Friendly staff, excellent decor. Could never get the ac / heat to work in the room, but luckily didn't need it. Breakfast buffet pretty decent. Based on the excellent rate received, it's definitely a good deal.
Simply Awesome
I dont know what that other person had experienced but we just loved it. All the friendly people who worked there, you just know they love the job. From the housekeepers to the desk, just simply awesome...the other surrounding hotels would not even come close..do not stay at any other hotel..close to downtown mall, walking distance to rest. theater, and even an iceskating rink. The free trolley was perfect to tour the area, and it is 15 minutes from Monticello. Please dont listen to that other comment...go visit them
Stay Somewhere Else
The Omni Charlottesville is not one of the properties to uphold the Omni name. Given the reputation of the chain, the service is horrible and the dining is worse. The non-smoking room we were given smelled like smoke with a bit of air-freshener sprayed over the top of it. When we asked to move rooms (my wife is very allergic to smoke), we were told that we were already in a non-smoking room and our request was denied.
If you are coming to C'ville, stay somewhere else.

Parents murderer gets life
Stephen Seddon has been jailed for life at Manchester Crown Court after murdering his parents to collect a £230,000 inheritance.
Family of couple murdered by son 'left feeling numb'
The past nine months have been a very sad and emotional time for our family. The shock of having both Pat and Bob taken from us in such horrifying and tragic circumstances has left us feeling numb.
Pat and Bob were a kind, loving and selfless couple who will be missed by their family and friends and especially their grandson Daniel, whom they cared for with great love and affection.
The family would like to take this opportunity to thank Greater Manchester Police for their dedication and effort in the case, also the legal team for their hard work and expertise.
We would like to now be left in peace to mourn the deaths of Pat and Bob and be allowed to remember them as the loving couple that they were.
Horror of parents who realised 'son was a monster'
At one point Stephen Seddon shouted from the dock, insisting he was innocent. But the judge told him to keep quiet, and continued his sentencing:
One can only imagine the horror of your parents' last moments in this life, when they realised what a monster their son, whom they loved, had become.
Mercifully their deaths were swift. The reason for the attempted murders and the murders was greed. You needed money. You had lost your job. You had a mortgage. You had a family to support. You had some grand plans.
Despite the fact that your parents had always been very generous in supporting you, you wanted more and you wanted it now - hence the plan to kill them and get your inheritance up front.
The attempt at murder having failed, you decided on a more ruthless and definitive method of killing. You obtained a sawn-off shotgun from criminal associates.
Police issue image of Stephen Seddon in custody
Seddon jailed for life for murdering his parents
Stephen Seddon has been jailed for life with a minimum term of 40 years at Manchester Crown Court today after murdering his parents to collect a £230,000 inheritance.
Justice for 'violent and premeditated murders'
As a result of today's verdicts Stephen Seddon has been brought to justice for the violent and premeditated murders of his own parents and for an earlier attempt on their lives.
He had planned these crimes in enormous detail and went to great lengths to cover his tracks and avoid detection, staging the scene of the murders to make it look like his father was responsible for the shootings.
After his failed attempt to kill his parents by driving the car into the canal he even presented himself as a hero for trying to rescue them.
– Cheryl Hramiak, Branch Crown Prosecutor at CPS North West
His motive was purely financial: to get his inheritance without waiting for his parents to die.
Since then he has tried to deceive everyone about what really happened and has shown no remorse whatsoever.
Sawn-off shot gun used to kill parents
Convicted fraudster Stephen Seddon, 46, had once before tried to murder his father, Robert Seddon, 68, and mother, Patricia, 65, by driving into a canal with them strapped in the back seats in a faked road accident.
Seddon then "played the hero" in the aftermath of the "accident" after aborting the murder plan when bystanders went to their aid in the submerged car.
But after that plan failed, four months later he shot the couple to death with a sawn-off shotgun at their suburban home in Sale, Greater Manchester.
His parents had made him sole beneficiary of their £230,000 estate in their will - and paid with their lives.
Today, the father of three, from Benevente Street in Seaham, County Durham, was convicted of two counts of attempted murder on March 20 last year and two counts of murder on July 4, after a five-week trial at Manchester Crown Court.
Seddon guilty of parents' murder
Stephen Seddon, 46, was found guilty at Manchester Crown Court today of the murder of his parents over a £230,000 inheritance.Read the full story

We warned you that this career was going to require a lot of schooling on your part…
You will need a doctorate in order to get that "Dr." prefix before your name. Otherwise, you're just "Joe Blow who likes to talk to you and try to solve your problems." Which looks just awful in a phone book.
So after your four years of undergrad, you will need to put in at least another four of medical school in order to get your Doctor of Medicine (MD) or Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (DO) degree. Along the way, you'll pick up quite a bit of general medical knowledge… so if one of your patients ever starts to deliver a baby in your office, you may have to man up and… get your hands dirty.
Like other doctors, you will have to complete a residency and then become licensed, as well as certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology (ABPN). Once you're on board with the Board, you can analyze this… and that.

Mt. McKinley: Knoff and Team Experience Deja Vu

Well, the team is currently experiencing deja vu here at 11,200' camp on Mt. McKinley. Before arriving here in deja vu land, the team did an AWESOME job packing up high camp and descending to 14,200' camp. At 14,200' we were met by Dave Hahn and his team who treated us to lots of hot water and quesadillas. Delicious and just what we needed!
Descending to 11 camp required all of our attention as we re-acquainted ourselves with sleds, experienced some post-holing, and walked (as best we could) through less than exciting weather. Now to the deja vu part of the story…a snow storm at 11,200'. We thought the weather gods had released all of the snow on us already but we were wrong. We are doing a weather dance right now so we can continue our descent and make our dreams of warm showers, cold beers, and loved ones a reality. Until then, we will keep you posted.

The move to Mt. McKinley's high camp is like stepping into the ring with a heavy weight larger than King Kong. Thing is, he really likes to throw things at you in one long grueling round. That round our team won. It could not have been a more perfect day to come to high camp. Now the question becomes how much strength does the team have for round two which comes in the form of Godzilla. Tomorrow we will attempt to climb to the summit, weather permitting. Wish us well.

Yesterday our team experienced the unparalleled vistas of a clear sky at 16,200' on Denali as we were finally handed a nearly perfect day. We loaded up three days of lunch and snack food plus a few personal items for our carry to the top of the fixed lines which crest Washburn's Ridge—the most stimulating section of Denali's West Buttress Route. The team did great learning how to jumar. All members of the St. Angelo family and Jay and Mary Lampas hit personal altitude records. Fatima did a great job breaking trail down the lines, literally paving the way for thirty other climbers on the same program as us.
The population of 14k camp has increased dramatically. What once was a camp that resembled a wide cow pasture with wandering wildlife now resembles a city with distinct neighborhoods on main thoroughfares. Just like a city, this can create traffic jams when multiple teams, all roped together, try to move around at the same time. This sudden influx of guided teams means we will need to wake up at 4 am, while the temperature here sits around 5 below, just to beat the crowds and avoid a bottleneck.
This afternoon we had a lengthy breakfast which leaned more along the lines of a leisurely brunch. We then took a beautiful stroll to an incredible precipice called the Edge of the World. Great weather allowed us more breathtaking views and inspired us for the hard days to come. Hopefully our next contact will be from high camp.

Thank you for all of the blog comments. It is great to hear from everyone back home and it is always reinvigorating.
Today we got to sleep in and then scurried down to our cache above Windy Corner. It was nice to be reunited with our food, clean underwear and base layers that we left buried in the snow for a few days. We then spent the afternoon doing some kitchen redesign, fixed line training and more sorting of food.
Tomorrow is an exciting day! We will get to see some more challenging and exciting terrain—carrying to the top of the fixed lines!

After an impromptu camp on the polo field we woke up to intermittent wind gusts rattling our tent flys. We crawled out of our shelters to crisp cold weather and blue skies. We ate a quick breakfast and began to break camp to complete our journey to 14,200' feet. Amidst the chaos of packing our bags we spotted Billy Nugent and his crew descending from a successful summit, we exchanged high fives and and hit the trail. This time equipped with snow shoes and skis to deal with the waist deep drifts. We were feeling very happy about floating on the snow surface vs crawling through it. We had pleasant weather and relatively calm winds working our way around Windy Corner. We pulled into camp and made ourselves at home, feeling the altitude a little we began to take care of ourselves and focus on the mountain ahead of us.
We are all feeling good and hoping for the best weather possible.

Hello to everyone out there in blog land. We all wish, in some selfish way I suppose, that there was a sure fire way to teleport any curious individuals straight to our location here on what is commonly called the Polo Field of the West Buttress. As I mentioned yesterday, a move to 14,000 foot Advanced Basecamp was on the ticket and we were gonna "make some hay" while the sun did shine. Oh how the "High One" can take any given plan and turn it into any thing she wishes. Like the oxymoron I spoke of about a "windless" Windy Corner. Can you say JINX! As it turns out, not only was the corner as windy as a Dave Hahn Everest story, the sun only shined for a few minutes before it started dumping snow again. Combine this with heinous trail breaking in the multiple feet of new snow and out pops a midway camp spot used only when the going gets tough. So tomorrow the tough will get going again and try for 14,000 feet once more.
Wish for warm toes, a better trail and quite winds.
Until Tomorrow.

The networkâs 136X136 ADAM frames in Melbourne, Australia, and at network headquarters in Bristol, Connecticut, were connected via the RTS Intelligent Trunking System over IP, allowing users to speak directly or communicate (via remote or virtual keypanel) with anyone on the personnel list at network headquarters at the press of a key. Both systems used 2 RTS RVON-8 cards.
Installed directly into ADAM Intercom Systems, the RVON-8 card expands the connectivity to the ADAM intercom by supporting 8 individually addressable audio channels (ports) in and out. Each channel has configurable network and bandwidth parameters that can be tailored to individual network functions, as well as ancillary data for keypanels and trunking control. As with all ADAM intercom family products, the RVON-8 card supports all standard hot swappable and configurable software. The RVON-8 uses standard Ethernet protocols and is compatible with all Ethernet compliant devices and networks. With AZedit configurations the user has the ability to adjust the audio quality of the matrix intercom to the available bandwidth on the network. The RVON-8 card can simultaneously feed VoIP capable keypanels as well as various other matrix intercom panels.
Chuck Roberts of RTS & Telex System Support commented: âBoth ends liked the audio quality and the versatility of the system, especially as being able to select the right person (or persons) and talk to them clearly with no delay issues (RVON uses 64-Kbit per-channel Codec) saves time and money. People can easily visit the Web for fast global coverage of sports events. RVON enables international TV broadcast communications to be just as accurate and immediately informed using VoIP technology.â?
