Some Virtual Plein Air study of Mountain Hua

Fanart challenge Day 1 - Killua (HunterxHunter)
I probably will take however long i want on these and probably not every day lol (especially cause i'll be away for days at a time from home this month)
Needed to practice more action poses. you can see how i got lazier and lazier with not drawing Killu's face lolol….and then only cel-shading at the end lolol.
Oh, i just want to say that I wanted to draw these fanart in my style, and I don't really like to do fanart in the original style of the manga/anime/comic/cartoons since there are so many out there anyways xD;;. and i wanted to draw killua older and nekkid.
ps. The top one was from the top of my head but i'm pretty sure the manga had a pose like that and it was one of my favourite Killua poses xDD. Feel free to reference the rest from me or anything for yourself though :)
background and colour practice. wip. reference used. I'm doing these just to get the feel of rock structures and how well i can pick out the colours with my eyes vs the photo.
I forgot to add in my other screenshot, that I actually work on one layer when using the marker tool (it doesn't work well with layers that doesn't have something on it already).
okay, f this, going to bed now. g'night
I said I'd be doing some practice off of that guy's style, yah? hahaha, yup, just practicing. The one on the top right (the face that's saying "practice more") was copied off of one of his drawings to get myself warmed up to his style.
I never realized how awesome the marker tool was in SAI. good lord. it feels great :D~!
more background practice. still wip though xD.

Fit Finish Durability Features Cost Benefit MY GIRLS BOOTS My girl said she really liked the way her boots fit and the look. She said they offer great ankle support. DAVEY L. MOORE JR - October 16, 2007 (Gretna , VA) Fit Finish Durability Features Cost Benefit Black Rose Womens Boot I've had these boots for about a month and I've been very pleased with them so far. They fit true to size and in the one mild to moderate rain storm I've ridden in, my feet stayed dry. My feet actually got a little cool though in the 40 degree weather one morning. Overall a great boot, I would buy them again UNLESS the Sidi Discovery Boot becomes available in a size that will fit me (I wear a women's size 8) or even better, if Sidi starts to make a women's version of the Discovery boot! Ashley - November 09, 2007 (Nashville, TN) Fit Finish Durability Features Cost Benefit Gaerne - Womens Black Rose Boots I LOVE these boots! They are so comfortable and well made. My only comment is that they are not as high up my shin as my last pair of Gaerne boots, and I wish they were a little higher, but still higher than most and a great boot! I would buy Gaerne again and again. Sonya Morrison - February 14, 2008 (Campbell, CA) Fit Finish Durability Features Cost Benefit Gaerne Motorcycle Boot This is a great all weather motorcycle boot. I was looking for a boot that would protect me in inclement and cold weather as well as provide me with comfort. Not only was the price very reasonable, its fit is true to size and it's also a nice looking boot. I would highly recommend this brand and style. Beatrice Boeglin - February 25, 2008 (Greenwich, CT) Fit Finish Durability Features Cost Benefit Boots for the Motorcycle women These are my first pair of motorcycle boots, and I love them, they look good, feel good and most of all look like a boot made for women. I must say I have no complaints. They may cost a little more than some others you can purchase cheaper, but for the quality, I would much rather spend the money; my feet have to be comfortable. I picked a winner. DENISE SMITH - March 31, 2008 (UPPER MARLBORO, MD) Fit Finish Durability Features Cost Benefit black rose boots I'm in Seattle, so lots of rain. I've never had an issue with leakage. Ridden in under 30 degree mornings, no cold feet. Ridden in 75 degree sunny days, no sweaty feet. Easy to tuck my pants into the top of the boot before putting on my riding overpants. Exceptional value for the money. I'll buy again! Deb - April 07, 2008 (Seattle, WA) Fit Finish Durability Features Cost Benefit Superb boots! I wear a size nine B. These boots fit perfectly--with a very light sock. They are still stretching a bit, and with time, likely will take a heavier sock if I need it. I wore them in the house for about 4 hours total to break them in a bit. They molded to my feet nicely. Leather is soft enough to be pliable, but thick and tough/durable enough to provide protection. They look good, too. Picture does not show the shifter pad, but it is there (on both feet--nice symmetry...). Only minor complaint is that the boots are relatively narrow in the upper leg and for the first 4 hours seemed to be too small in the lower calf area. (I'm a bicyclist, too...) But they did stretch out, and I wore them on a 120-mile ride today. They are just wonderful! Lightweight, supportive, and the problem of tightness in the calf has totally vanished. A bit pricey, but worth every penny. These are the only feet I've got. I'm very happy with the boots. E Bishop - September 18, 2008 (Fossil, OR) Fit Finish Durability Features Cost Benefit EXACTLY WHAT I"VE BEEN LOOKING FOR! These boots are terrific! They fit true to size and are superbly comfortable both on and off the bike. I get many compliments on them. I was pleasantly surprised to find that I feel much more stable and confident when stopping and moving my bike around with these boots on. Thanks Gaerne & Motorcycle Superstore! J Mikeal - July 31, 2009 (College Station, TX) Fit Finish Durability Features Cost Benefit Great Boots! I got these on sale as a recommendation from a friend and he was correct! I love them! Comfy, perfect fit almost feel like I'm wearing a broken in favorite pair of tennis! Great buy at the price. Monica - October 08, 2009 (washington, DC) Fit Finish Durability Features Cost Benefit Great boot! It took me quite a few tries to find the right boot. These are absolutely the most comfortable boots. They run on the small side so make sure you order one size up. I just went from being a passenger to riding on my own. It gives my foot the flexibility it needs while providing great support. I've had them on for several hours and they are just like wearing your favorite slippers. I'm very happy with my choice. Michelle - May 10, 2010 (Westfield, MA) Fit Finish Durability Features Cost Benefit I LOVE THESE BOOTS! In preparation for a long moto trip, I purchased a pair of Alpinestars Tech 6 (motocross boots) because they were a killer deal on Motorcycle Superstore. When I actually went to use them, the boots were really cumbersome and I couldn't get them under the shifter. I then ordered a pair of Vega moto boots which for $80 were alright - but decided not worth the money so I returned them. Finally I went to a store, tried on all their boots & despite being the most expensive, bought the Black Rose. What a boot! I want to wear them all the time. I wear them on the bike and have done short hikes in them & worn them out to dinner, etc. If you can, try this boots on first or definitely order them a size or so bigger. I am a 6.5/7 and I ended up with a 7.5. If you're concerned about price I would say just pony up the cash because these boots are worth it. Warm, comfortable, look good, feel great. In addition, for me as a short rider on a tall bike, it was really nice to feel like I had control over my feet and with these boots being so slim fitting in the ankle, they worked really well. Buy 'em! greatbear - May 12, 2010 (Salt Lake City, UT) Fit Finish Durability Features Cost Benefit Gaerne-Women's Black Rose Boots After trying on a lot of different boots, I purchased a pair of these for myself in August, 2009. They are the perfect riding boot in my opinion. The fit is very comfortable, although I did have to get a half size larger. Very well made Italian boots. Look great with my leathers and protect my foot and leg. Zipper makes it easy to get them on and off. Extra protection in all the right places. The heels are not chunky and I do not have any difficulty getting my foot under the shifter, which is the problem with some of the other boots. The soles are non skid and I find these very fashionable, although that was not the main reason I purchased them. My daughter-in-law is taking up riding and likes these so much that she is getting a pair too. I agree with some of the other reviewers, that while these might be a little bit on the pricey side, you get what you pay for and I would highly recommend these. I don't think you will be disappointed. Constance - May 19, 2010 (Monroe, WA) Fit Finish Durability Features Cost Benefit Boots that fit narrow feet !! Yeah! These boots are really built around a woman's foot. I have a narrow foot, and this is the first boot I have found that truly fits. Having said that, they do run small so order a size larger. It's also easy to walk in and I like the styling. I couldn't honestly rate the durability because they're spanking new but they appear really well made so I'll give that a 5 also. Meredith - June 14, 2010 (Bay Area, CA) Fit Finish Durability Features Cost Benefit Gaerne Wmen's Black Rose Boots Purchased these boots for my daughter-in-law and she loves them. I have a pair myself and think they are very well made, stylish, comfortable, and functional. Made in Italy--good heel height with inside zipper for easy fitting. Good toe protection and cover up to mid calf on me. Heel height is good and does not create any trouble with shifting clutch. Some other boot styles are so clunky that you have trouble getting the toe under the shift lever. Look great with leather. I normally wear an 8.5 and ordered a 9 for a very good fit. They tend to run a little small. Expensive but worth the price. Connie - June 22, 2010 (Monroe, WA) Fit Finish Durability Features Cost Benefit Great all the way around These boots are wonderful...great fit, get one size larger than you usually wear...fit like a glove.

Wait, how can you send me free music I can download totally legally??
It's a pretty sweet deal for both the artists and the fans, actually. We have great relationships with a ton of independent musicians and all they want is to share their passion with as many people as possible. And we understand that finding new music outside of your existing interests and social circles isn't the easiest process. So we ran this idea by our instrument-toting friends and they were super stoked about it. Free music for you, more listeners to spread the love for them. Magical.
What kinda music am I gonna get?
Our list of participating artists is pretty damn deep and wide, so you're going to get exposure to a variety of genres. Hip hop, country, rock 'n roll, folk...we're all about celebrating adventure in listening. Our Boxes usually consist of 2-3 songs - sometimes they're from the same artist, sometimes they are a mix of different artists and styles. And we're out there every day expanding our library and looking to add new genres.
What's next for MusicBox?
Our ultimate goal is to customize the artists and music you receive through MusicBox. We are currently working with our mad scientists on the perfect way to easily match your music tastes to our artist roster, so we can send you new beats that are just outside your comfort zone, but totally something you'll dig. Stay tuned for more on this. We also want to give artists the opportunity to share exclusive content with you guys outside of our regular Boxes. As always, hit us up on email if you have any questions, feedback, or feature requests.
Here's why we built MusicBox
Mike and Dave met in 2013 and immediately hit it off, but it wasn't until early 2014 that they decided to partner up on an ambitious music startup. Click below for a little insight into why we believe in MusicBox, then shoot us an email to say hello.
Here's a two-minute read on our philosophy
Hey Artists!
Placement into a MusicBox is FREE! Create thousands of new fans by getting your music into a Box today. Submit 1-3 songs and an image to our Mad Scientist DJs. We'll review and place your music as soon as we can!

Product Details
Would you like to update product info or give feedback on images?.
Liza treats each song as an emotional Mount Everest, never holding back a thing, and the result is a psychodrama played out in the klieg lights. (The outrageous costumes by Halston don't hold back a thing, either; Studio 54, here we come!) Memories of the all-or-nothing style of her mother, Judy Garland, are already heavy in the air by the time Minnelli reaches "My Mammy," and workouts on "God Bless the Child" and "Son of a Preacher Man" confirm the singer's approach.
As for Fosse's choreography, there are signature moves aplenty--his dancing so frequently suggested a choreographer lusting for actual sex to break out on stage. "Bye Bye Blackbird" gives Minnelli and her backup dancers a chance to stretch out in an echt-Fosse feast of bowler hats and white gloves. The bell-and-booty shaking in "Ring Them Bells" and the loony tuxedo-clad cowpokes in "I Gotcha" hint that Fosse was in the midst of a manic phase. Speaking of which, Minnelli tackling Joe Tex's "I Gotcha" is one of those jaw-dropping mismatches that she salvages only through dint of daft commitment. No quarreling with the Cabaret medley; say want you want about Liza, she owns those songs. Minnelli and Fosse won Emmys for the show. The restoration of the original materials looks about as good as can be expected, with the spirit of a glitzy seventies TV variety special quite intact. --Robert Horton

Of or relating to the Tagalogs.
A language spoken in the Philippines, in particular, Metro Manila and its surrounding provinces such as Bulacan, Laguna, Cavite, Batangas, Bataan, Rizal, Marinduque, Mindoro, and Quezon.
Origin: From Tagalog, from taga- + ilog(if the basis of the meaning is the sound or pronounciation). But based on ancient language in Luzon (Dumaget) that co-existed with Tagalog, Tagalog is combination of "Tage" ("Taga(h)" in Early Tagalog) and "Loy" (From "Naloy" of Dumaget meaning "long time ago", or " Antiquity"). This term(TAGELOY) was widely used in Manila before 1950 by elders.Tageloy is a person belonging to this ethnic group while "Tagalog" is the term that describe this language.This provides us the meaning " The resident/People of Ancient time" or " Taga Matagal/Malaon nang Panahon" in Tagalog.
Tagalog language
Tagalog is an Austronesian language spoken as a first language by a quarter of the population of the Philippines and as a second language by the majority. It is the first language of the Philippine region IV, of Bulacan and of Metro Manila. Its standardized form, officially named Filipino, is the national language and one of two official languages of the Philippines, the other being English. It is related to other Philippine languages such as the Bikol languages, Ilokano, the Visayan languages, and Kapampangan, and more distantly to other Austronesian languages such as Indonesian, Hawaiian and Malagasy.

Steelers season goes all year long so whether we're previewing training camp, predicting roster moves, or looking around for mentions of your Black & Gold we've got you covered. Here's what's being said about your Pittsburgh Steelers around the block.
Worth the wait
According to Bob Labriola of the Steelers Digest, the people who have been waiting the longest on the Steelers season ticket holder waiting list will get the first crack at the new seats being added in the South Plaza. The additional scoreboard construction is coming along nicely and Steelers President Art Rooney II expects to add between 2,500-3,000 additional seats. The construction includes raising the South Plaza and the seats will be full seats and not bleachers so those fans that've been waiting for season tickets to open up will have first dibs on buying seat licenses for the new addition.
Mike Mitchell's chip
ESPN's Scott Brown explains that there is a perception that Steelers free agent acquisition Mike Mitchell's improved stats from last year with the Carolina Panthers was due to the front seven he played behind. Because of that, he explains that he plays with a chip on his shoulder.
"I don't really care about Pro Bowl. I want to be an All-Pro. I have to do what I did last year again plus better. A lot of times last year people were talking about the front seven I played with and they were very talented. Sometimes you're overlooked, but that's just another chip to put on my shoulder and play football." – Mike Mitchell

Yes.......massive apologies to everyone out there. I am a very late comer to owning and using a 60D (I had a 450D with kit lens for about 3 years previously). I bought my 60D body in Feb 2013. It was all and everything that I could afford then. I then found a Sigma 18-50 2.8 lens second hand on ebay to go with it. I have not been happy with any of my photos so far. I have been reading lots and lots about various lenses. And I've been reading a huge amount of forum discussions. And I have learned a lot.......thank you to everyone who actually posts their opinions and experiences.
But.....what should I do?
I wish I could afford to buy a 6D or even a 5D. But I can't.
So what lens should I buy to make my 60D a good camera?
I am only just now starting to understand and get hooked on photography (at the age of 45....).
90% of my photos are indoors, with minimal lighting. I have just discovered the joy of a Speedlite and now have a 430. It is wonderful.
But I know that my Sigma lens is letting me down.
So.......should I buy a Canon EF-S 17-55 2.8 (which seem's designed exactly for what I need.....I'm not very concerned about rain and thunder).
Or a Canon EF 17-40 4.0 ....(which should be a better "L" lens, but with less "light" aperture etc)
Or wait for the new Sigma 18-35 1.8......
I am now very wary about any "third party" lens with my Canon 60D. Surely it makes sense to put a Canon body with a Canon Lens? My current Sigma lens is terrible at focusing.
Or should I go for a Canon 24mm 2.8 prime plus something like the Canon 15-85 (which I read has variable aperture, which puts me off).
How important is Image Stabilisation?
Please, if I'm not boring you with these old sad questions, then rational, intelligent and concise answers would be massively appreciated. (sorry that my question has been anything but concise).
Oh.......should I consider a Canon EF 24-70 2.8 (mk 1 is all I think I could afford).......?
I totally understand the difference between my 60d (crop frame sensor) and a full frame camera such as a 5D. And the implications therefore.
Thank you everyone out there.
The EF-S 17-55 2.8 on a crop frame is a fantastic combination, in my opinion the lens is up to the L standard in quality and is considerably cheaper.
Hi Owen, and welcome to ePz!
I had the EF-S 17-55 2.8 when I had the 7D, and found it to be a cracking lens. I was sorry it didn't fit when I changed to the 5D.
If you have a retail outlet nearby that hires out kit, then the best thing would be to hire the lenses you are considering for a day in order to make a practical, hands-on comparison.
The EF-S 17-55 has a stellar reputation and whilst it is right up there in terms of quality it also comes at a price to rich for my wallet. If you are looking for something close on quality at a more affordable cost then take a look at the Sigma 17-50 f2.8 and the Tamron 17-50 f2.8 (the latter is slightly better without VC).
Both have great image quality and in some areas stand right up there with the Canon offering, I went with the Tamron as a good 2nd hand version in minty condition cost me a shade under 150GBP, best purchase I made on a lens by some difference
First is to think about what you're photographing and why your current lens is letting you down. Are you shooting wide open and finding that the lens isn't very sharp? Are you using autofocus and it's not fast enough. Or are you getting camera shake and blur which would be helped by having IS. If you think it's the lens at fault why not send off to sigma for servicing to make sure it's operating correctly - cheaper than buying a new lens. If it's camera shake then bumping the ISO up a little, using your flash, and better technique will help lots.
Saying all that, if you're doing lots of photography indoors I'd start off by getting at least a nifty 50 (50mm f1.8) - superb lenses, cheap as chips. If you're feeling flush, get the 1.4 variant - it's even better
Thank you for your suggestions. I did try one of the cheap 50mm 1.8 lenses on the 450D I was using before I got my 60D. And I agree that it produced fantastic results. But it wasn't anywhere near "wide" enough for my use indoors. And then I lent it to a friend and it came back not working. So I really do need a lower mm to make things work on my 60D. I really am tempted by the 17-55 2.8. Yes, it is very expensive, but I do want and need a reliable solution. I've read lots of forum discussions saying that the 17-55 is not well made etc. But I'm not planning on taking it into a storm.....or even very rarely outdoors. Quick and accurate focusing, and sharpness are my priorities. So surely matching this Canon lens with the 60D is the right answer? My experience with my Sigma has made me very wary of non-Canon lenses. What do you think of the Canon 24 or 28 mm (prime?) lenses?
Thanks for taking the time gents.
If this is your only experience with Sigma then it may very well be tainted by a lens that was not thought to be much above average to begin with and is now discontinued, the 17-50 is very highly thought of as is the 17-50 Tamron...
Re: QC I have read a lot on forums about the Sigma/Tamron Lottery but I guess I have been lucky, I have 3 third party lenses, sigma 50mm f2.8 macro, Tamron 17-50 f2.8 non vc and Tamron 70-300mm USD VC, the Sigma required no MA on my 50D and the 17-50 +2 MA and the 70-300 +4 at 300mm +1 at 70mm... As I only use the long end the variance is not all that concerning.
Having said that if you have the budget for the Canon then go for it, never heard of any one being disappointed with it and as one poster mentioned above I have seen countless folk comment about missing the lens very much when moving to full frame!
Thank you for your reply.
I'm going to sound really frickin stupid now.........again apologies for my ignorance of terminology etc
So......."MA"......what exactly is that? Is it the ability of the camera to microscopically adjust to the lens being used at the time, to make all the miniscule parameters work perfectly together? And am I correct in understanding that my 60D does not have that capability and it is something that Canon rudely left out of the 60D when that capability is a good thing on higher spec cameras?
If so, have I messed up buying a 60D?
Oh.....and the Tamron 17-50 f2.8 non vc you mention.....what is non vc? is it Tamron's IS system.....or rather, it doesn't have Tamrons IS system. And is it considered better NOT to have IS or not?
Sorry about these dumb questions. I appreciate the time taken to answer.
No Worries at all, yes MA gives the ability to adjust the lens to the camera a little (it does not vary by focal length though which is a little frustrating if a lens varies across the focal length), I have it on my 50D but Canon neglected to add it to the 60D, which is a pain, but the 60D is still a great camera. Sigma have released a dock for their new top of the range lenses (contemporary, arts and sport) which allows MA for a number of focal lengths which is interesting and if it works exciting although the lenses are out of my price range.
The Tamron without VC (which is vibration control, but basically Canons image stabilisation) is thought to be a little sharper than the VC version and as my style of shooting at this focal length rarely needs stabilisation then it made sense to save a few pennies. It is a little softer at f2.8 & 50mm but is incredibly sharp at f4 but this is a common feature of all but the best lenses.
I have no hands on experience with the Sigma 17-50 but it does get rave reviews but is about 100-150gbp (new) more expensive than the Tamron last time I checked which was admittedly when I bought about a year ago. The focus on the Tamron sounds slow as it is relatively noisy but I find it pretty quick and very accurate even in low light, although I do not shoot in low light very often.
As with every one I have heard stories of the 3rd party lottery but I have been fortunate to always be on the winning ticket and all of my lenses were purchased used from eBay. I am sure the QC is not up there with Canons and incidents of front or back focusing are more common I am unsure just how common it is, although the internet forums will make you think it is 2 in 3 (which I find hard to believe), if you are buying new then buy on shore in the UK and if it don't work well send it back
To sum up my thoughts I would say that if I had the money at the time I would have purchased the Canon 17-55, I didn't so got the Tamron, and to be honest if I had the money now I would not trade the Tamron in for the Canon as it does everything I want it too and the image quality between the Canon and Tamron are in a real world sense not all that great given what I have seen, although AF is meant to be a fair bit quicker on the Canon and it does have IS.
You do not need to buy any lens. Spend your money on doing an off camera workshop/hire a model. Practice your craft. Buying a better lens will not make you a better photographer.
Good luck.

Speakers as Equalizers
Any time you can take a speaker out of its square existence and spice it up is a good thing. This concept from Young Sang Eun, the same guy that thought up the 2-in-1 loo, turns speaker into movable equalizer. By moving each of the speakers individually, either up or down, the user controls tone and bass.
We're not sure if having all six speakers in one location would prove inadequate for audiophiles, but we applaud the idea either way...

1 Comment
As much as I like the aesthetics of this, being said audiophile..the form doesn't follow the function. Tweeters, theoretically are supposed to point at ear level, subs on the floor..in a nut shell. But this? To get more bass, Lift the sub up higher. That doesn't make sense. A personal equalizer that goes out to speakers maybe, and looks just as good on a smaller scale might work better.

Sequestration could spell $39B in cuts to civilian agency budgets
Civilian agencies may lose almost $40 billion dollars in top-line funding if sequestration goes into effect on Jan. 2, according to a new analysis by the Professional Services Council. Using fiscal 2012 as a baseline, PSC calculated civilian discretionary spending would decline by $39 billion and that individual agency budget would decline by 7.8 percent.

Duration: 12 days Start Location: Buenos Aires End Location: Buenos AiresDownload Detailed Itinerary
Day 1 : Arrive in Buenos Aires, Argentina
Please be sure to schedule your international flight so that you arrive in Buenos Aires in the morning. Upon your arrival at Buenos Aires' Ezeiza Airport you'll be met by your trip leader or another representative outside the customs and immigration area at the airport. He or she will answer questions, brief you on the immediate arrangements, and escort you to your hotel.
Once you've settled in you'll depart for an afternoon tour of the city, including visits to La Boca, San Telmo (antiques market), Costanera Sur (docks by the river), the Plaza de Mayo (Government House), and the Recoleta district in the northwest sector of the city, famous mainly for its nightlife but also well worth a visit by day. Close by are the National Cemetery with the tombs of many famous people (among them Eva Peron) and the Museum of Fine Arts. The downtown district, especially along Calle Florida, contains many galerias (huge enclosed shopping malls) with dozens of stores and colorful stands. Dinner tonight will be on your own—Buenos Aires has no lack of enticing culinary options.
LODGING: Loi Suites Recoleta
Day 2 : San Carlos de Bariloche
We'll begin the day with a transfer to the airport where we'll board our flight to San Carlos de Bariloche, located in Patagonia's Lake District. Upon landing we'll transfer to the Aldebarán Hotel on the San Pedro Peninsula, just 14 miles from San Carlos de Bariloche. The Aldebarán is pleasantly situated in a beautiful setting, with verdant forests, soaring mountains, and idyllic Lago Nahuel Huapi (pronounced "nah-well wah-pee") filling the views. Its ten exclusive rooms overlook the lake, and each has its own individual balcony providing you with unlimited enjoyment of the hotel's beautiful natural setting.
In the afternoon we'll hike to Cerro Llao Llao, possibly one of the most photographed regions in all of Argentina, known for its spectacular setting of crystalline lakes and mountains. The hike to the top of the mountain is an easy walk that takes us through the surrounding woodlands, where we may hear the trill of the chucao or the habitual pecking of woodpeckers. This is quite possibly one of the most enjoyable and stunning hikes in the Lake District.
INCLUDED MEALS: Breakfast
LODGING: Aldebarán Hotel
Day 3 : Trek Bella Vista
The activity starts at the Hotel. Your guide will meet you between 9 and 9:15 am and driver you to El Tambo start of the Trail, (2,800') . Before starting our hike, we'll have a briefing on the journey, and then start hiking at a slow pace to warm up.
The hike starts through the woods, following a trail surrounded by thick vegetation. The ascent is slow up to the first lookout. From there we steadily continue ascending until we reach the second part of the trail at 5,248', surrounded by high Lengas and colorful Amancay. Here the vegetation begins to thin out, opening up to fresh air and unmatchable panoramic views. After three hours of hiking, we'll reach the pre-summit.
INCLUDED MEALS: Breakfast/Lunch
LODGING: Aldebarán Hotel
Days 4 - 5 : Kayaking on Lago Nahuel Huapi
Kayaking allows us to reach the most remote and virgin areas in nature, experiencing the Andes from another angle and explore new sensations. We meet at the hotel at 9:30 am and make our way to Bahía López 7 where we will have our safety and security talk and go into the details of the activity. We will sail down the waters of lake Nahuel Huapi and Moreno, discovering its shores and crystal clear water. After 2 or 3 hours of gentle paddling on the Moreno lake, we will disembark at one of its beaches to return to our Hotel.
INCLUDED MEALS: Breakfast/Lunch
LODGING: Aldebarán Hotel
Day 6 : El Calafate
Today we'll transfer back to San Carlos de Bariloche and from there fly to Calafate, on the shore of Lago Argentino. From the Calafate airport we'll have a 30-minute drive to Eolo lodge, located in the vast Patagonian steppe near renowned Perito Moreno Glacier and Los Glaciares National Park.
El Calafate In the middle of the steppe and constantly escorted by the southern wind, El Calafate is one of the country's most visited destinations for the outlying spectacular attractions: The Perito Moreno Glacier and National Park Los Glaciares. Around Lago Argentino, a lake with a surface area of 1600 square kilometers and so deep its temperature remains 8º C year round, straight down from the South Continental Ice Cup, an array of glaciers can be visited and travelers from all the world are bewitched by the magic of a zillion shades of blue and white and by the thundering noise of ice cracking into the lakes…
The City holds around 20,000 inhabitants While it makes its living from the ice it is not a completely chilled-out place: the main street is crowded by souvenir shops, some featuring very nice crafts, and there's a selection of restaurants where to taste unbeatable Patagonian Lamb. A must at least once in a lifetime, Calafate owes its name to a small bush which fruit is a delicious
berry. According to tradition, whoever eats Calafate will return for more.
INCLUDED MEALS: Breakfast/Lunch/Dinner
LODGING: Eolo Lodge - El Calafate
Day 7 : Perito Moreno Glacier Mini-Trekking
After breakfast and accompanied by a private guide we're off to explore the Perito Moreno Glacier up close. Like the majority of glaciers in Patagonia, the Perito Moreno glacier has its origins in the Patagonia Ice Cap but unlike its fellow glaciers is the only one in the area that has maintained its ice mass. We'll start our exploration by sailing across Lago Argentino's Brazo Rico and along the three-mile-long snout of the glacier, disembarking on the opposite side. Here a group of certified mountain guides will give a short talk on glaciology before taking you on an easy, optional two-hour hike on the glacier itself. (Crampons will be provided, and no experience in glacier trekking or walking with crampons is needed).
After our glacier hike, we'll have lunch before returning to the port. Our private van will then take us to a boardwalk composed of seven balconies of different heights and distances from the glacier where you'll have plenty of time to enjoy and photograph the massive face of Perito Moreno and possibly have the thrill of watching huge chunks of ice break off and tumble into the water below—a sight and sound not soon forgotten! We'll return to our lodge for overnight
Perito Moreno Age restriction. Does not apply for travelers under 10 or over 65 years old. Not suitable for pregnant women. This excursion is operated on a regular basis, it is not private, yet still worth the experience!
INCLUDED MEALS: Breakfast/Lunch/Dinner
LODGING: Eolo Lodge - El Calafate
Day 8 : Transfer to El Chalten
After breakfast we'll mount Alta Vista's tame horses and—in best gaucho style—ride to nearby Estancia Anita to learn a bit about sheep farming in Patagonia. (If you're not up for horseback riding, you can either hike, bike, or take the van to Estancia Anita.) Afternoon transfer to El Calafate and continue to El Chalten.
As we continue west from Estancia Leona we will (weather permitting) enjoy impressive views of the Cordillera Andes (including Cerro Torre and Cerro Fitzroy) . We are likely to spot guanacos, lesser rhea, grey foxes, condors, and falcons along the way. We'll arrive at El Chalten late afternoon and have time to fully enjoy the Andes mountains, with the Cerro Fitzroy standing out as the centerpiece.
INCLUDED MEALS: Breakfast/Lunch/Dinner
LODGING: Hosteria Los Cerros - El Chaltén
Days 9 - 10 : To El Chalten. Los Glaciares National Park
Two days to enjoy the tremendous vistas of the spectacular peaks of Fitzroy (11,072') and Cerro Torre (10,280'), the masterpieces of Los Glaciares National Park. There are a variety of day hikes to suit all abilities, including Laguna Torre, the base camp of Cerro Torre climbs, situated on a beautiful glacial lake with the stunning monolith framed behind the lake; Laguna Capri and Laguna de los Tres, directly in front of Fitzroy; Piedras Blancas and Laguna Sucia, which boast large glaciers calving into beautiful alpine lakes with Fitzroy as a backdrop; Piedra del Fraile, looking towards the north face of Fitzroy and the east entrance to the famous Patagonia Ice Cap. Where we hike is weather dependent, but with all these great options, we can't miss!
INCLUDED MEALS: Breakfast/Lunch/Dinner
LODGING: Hosteria Los Cerros - El Chaltén
Day 11 : Buenos Aires
Late morning transfer to El Calafate and catch our return flight to Buenos Aires. Upon arrival transfer to your hotel for overnight.
INCLUDED MEALS: Breakfast
LODGING: Loi Suites Recoleta
Day 12 : Depart Buenos Aires

Monday, 12 March 2007, 1:51 PM EST
ICANN has released a report on the well publicised attack on the internet's backbone of DNS servers early in February.
The report indicates that the internet withstood the attack because of the Anycast shield technology implemented after the last attack of a significant size in 2002.

I could be tempted to sell my 16GB 3G to that phonerecyclebank.com site. £205 is a damn good price for a 2 year well used phone. It would mean my 32GB iPhone4 would cost next to nothing!
I'd wager that the iphone4 prices will be very close to current 3GS prices. Once the iPhone 4 arrives, 3GS prices will drop to 3G prices and 3G will be no more...
O2 have just released their smartphone tarrifs. The data allowance is really low!
O2 | iPhone 4 | Tariffs for iPhone
I seen that O2's monthly plans are up, I just wish they would hurry up and announce the handset pricing for pay as you go

O2 just released new iphone 'smartphone' tariffs.....
O2 | iPhone 4 | Tariffs for iPhone
And people complain about AT&T LOL
ok, so in my general / settings / usage I have sent 42mb and received 540mb...
is that in total or since my last charge? i updated to 3.1.3 recently so i'm worried that it is based on the past 2 weeks and that these data plans are ridiculous. I only use it for a bit of home pc streaming, youtube etc
500MB cap is rediculous. I'm probably going to get the £30 24month contract and get the extra 500MB £5 bolt on. Either that, or argue to stay on my current tarrif which is 500txts/600mins/unlimited data.
http://news.o2.co.uk/Press-Releases/...model-2a3.aspx ) and that "97% of users" only use half of this allowance... but it kills the point of an iphone and o2 especially when you can't even get on bloody 3g in the centre of the capital
OK, I'll admit, most of my data is MyWi tethering so I can't really argue my point very well with O2 haha
i wonder how many will jump ship or if this is all just momentary shock and awe...
60 youtube clips in a month sounds like loads, but in combination with all the crap that gets pushed to your phone, emails and general surfing it starts to look worrisome.
guess this means we won't be able to 3gUnrestrict our facetime calls
A lot. trouble, I can't see anywhere else doing any better. Orange offer "unlimited" but that's still only a 750MB fair use. Still, better than 500MB and what can they actually do if I download 1GB instead of 750 when it's advertised as unlimited?
That's the conclusion i came to re: Orange tariff... they don't seem to list usage charges outside of your contract. So if you were to go over as you say, I don't know what the penalty would be.
Looking at my usage overall, I need a tariff that no one seems to offer. I use data above and beyond my minutes/text allowed. I've never once come close to my 600mins/month or 600 txts/month. Maybe in light of this I would be best on the cheapest of cheap tariffs with a 500m bolt on each month.
I feel like I want to leave o2 purely out of spite
I have unlimited data plan on o2 simplicity sim only, although they text me one month to say I was over my data quota and if I didn't reduce my usage they would cut off my data! When I spoke to customer support, the "Unlimited Plan" actual produces a warning text if you go over 250mb in a month, and if you exceed 500mb you get a written warning - if you then exceed 500mb in another month they will force you to upgrade to a 1gb plan for £15 per month extra.
So the Unlimited Data Plan has never been unlimited on o2.
Is there a chance that your sim only tariff is markedly different from my payM unlimited tariff?
Might pop out to my o2 shop to ask what's going on
I'm on £20 iphone simplicit. with 600 min, 1200 texts, unlimited Internet & wifi. I do use Internet a lot, so was annoyed when I saw the 500mb limit. The new tariff is unlimited texts, I don't want bloody unlimited texts, I don't use what I've got. :-(
Wtf, that data allowance is really low and the iPhone 4 is even more expensive than last year?
Hurry up and release the Payngo prices so I can preorder! However if iPhone 4 16GB is more than £550, I shall not be buying it, I think...
UK data 500MB 500MB 500MB 750MB 750MB 1GB
What does all this actually mean?
O2 Blog: Offering fair and transparent access to mobile data <--- i recommend reading his answers as they are the comments closest to the horse's mouth as we are likely to see
The CEO of o2 says this: "if you go over your data limit and don't buy a Bolt On then your data speed will gradually slow down. You won't be charged further."
I know its to do with the internet but like is it the usage? When im not on wifi?

In 1973, the USAF was authorised by Presidential authority to continue the bombing of Vietnam after the expiration of the deadline laid down by the US Congress because the Case-Church Amendment had been vetoed by Richard Nixon.
Nixon Survives
By Ed, Scott Palter and Amnah KhanSoon enough a fresh NVA Offensive demonstrated that Nixon was correct in sustaining the pressure of the bombing campaign because the policy of Vietnamisation was insufficient in itself for the South to survive. Instead he sent supplies under his authority as Commander-in-Chief and ordered new B-52 strikes.
Of course this truth had been self-evident from the moment that Le Duc Tho the North Vietnam Negotiator of the Paris Peace Accords had declined the award of a Nobel Peace Prize, saying that a true peace did not yet exist. Ironically, within months Nixon himself would himself be struggling to survive.
Whether Nixon had planned it or not the Watergate Crisis was profoundly affected by the resumption of hostilies in Vietnam. An issue from legalistic squabbles about abuse of power had been transformed into full blown constitutional crisis about the war powers of the Presidency. As a result, it was harder to get Republican votes for impeachment, leaving Nixon in office as the House kept impeaching him over and over 1975-6 while the Senate acquitted him by a few votes.

The California Court of Appeal recently provided rare guidance regarding a third party's obligations to produce electronically stored information (ESI) in response to a subpoena. In Vasquez v. California School of Culinary Arts, Inc. (Sallie Mae) (August 27, 2014, B250600) Cal.App.4th (2014 WL 4793703), the court defined subpoenaed parties' obligations to extract existing data from computer systems and upheld an award of attorneys' fees against the recalcitrant third party. The court concluded that it is unreasonable for a third party to withhold ESI that exists in its computer systems on the basis that outputting the ESI entails creating a "new" spreadsheet.

Behind The Scoreboard
NCAA wipes away Tigers' great season
The basketball world will probably little note nor long remember what is, and has been, said in articles like this since the news leaped across all the media last week about the University of Memphis' men's basketball program. Its most spectacular season was wiped away in one fell swoop by the NCAA. The record setting 2007-08 season had set the collegiate sport of basketball ablaze.
One didn't have to be a dyed in the wool fan to develop an unending admiration for their skyrocketing accomplishments. Each week of the regular schedule, they brought a greater base of excitement and expectations. They had the "horses," so to speak. The era was ushered in with the advent of their prolific coach, John Calipari. A very likeable mentor, endowed with an engrossing persona. John C. was right at home in the TV spotlight. Now there are those in the Memphis community who feel that any indiscretions in the Tigers' program should be laid at the door of the former coach.
The A.D. at Memphis (R.C. Johnson) has also come under scrutiny as having given Big John a free rein in leading the Tigers' program. There are myriad reasons why this writer wouldn't agree with such insinuations. Did the A.D. err in giving his new coach a certain latitude in building a program which was to gain national attention and respect? The truth of the matter is that the NCAA held Coach Calipari completely blameless in any and all of its allegations. It was not privy to all of the reports that Calipari cooperated fully in all areas of the NCAA committee's investigation.
The inquiry targeted one player on the Tigers' history-making team: Derek Rose. It would appear that Rose had failed his SAT twice in Illinois. There was a successful score recorded in Michigan, but the ETS said that the test hadn't been taken by Rose. The NCAA had delved into these examinations and cleared Rose, granting him eligibility on not one but two occasions to play at the collegiate level. Rose was ruled illegal after the Tigers' outstanding season was over!
We are not privy to all of the NCAA's finding. But is it just to strip away a school's best effort ever? Is there any credible, concrete evidence available that would be important enough for the indictment of an entire program?
The university is appealing the "death sentence." And that would be completely appropriate in this instance. Research for this article was not extensive or exhaustive, but it turned up no successful appeal. Shouldn't the NCAA be required to publish irrefutable evidence of complicity in this matter which resulted in irrevocable consequences?
Be completely honest. How do you really feel about the NCAA's decision?

text: Trailer Talk: 'Grudge Match' Pits 'Rocky' vs. 'Raging Bull' for Comic KO Print article Send a Tip by Zachary Leeman 17 Sep 2013 post a comment The fictional boxing match we've always wanted to see is on its way. The full trailer recently hit the web for Grudge Match, a comedy about two past their prime boxers who decide to reignite their old feud with one final showdown. The part that makes the film interesting is that the two old men are played by Robert De Niro (Raging Bull) and Sylvester Stallone (Rocky). Check out the trailer below along with some thoughts. Grudge Match is directed by Peter Segal (50 First Dates, Get Smart) so it isn't a surprise that the film looks like a conventional comedy complete with tongue in cheek references and old man cracks. What surprises, however, is what seems like the maturity of the film when dealing with the ages of its falling stars. Stallone and De Niro look like they've got some punches to throw outside of the ring that are going to give this flick some unexpected weight. The comedy looks like it'll be a pleasing picture with some interesting themes on age and regret and, hopefully, one hell of a boxing match between Rocky Balboa and Jake LaMotta. Grudge Match hits theaters on Christmas Day.
