Georgeous photos. Wonderful angles. I never think about taking pictures with these kinds of views. Love them. Ramona |
BEAUTIFUL PICS!!! You did good., |
Fantastic. So crisp. Ron |
I can only echo what everyone else has said. Thank you for posting...keep it up. :) The red and yellow double tulip is breathtaking. What is the white one that looks like it's been sprinkled with sparkly fairy dust? The morning glory throat macro is gorgeous. I like them all. Pam |
Tis the season......... Shasta Daisy Highland White Dream Whew! I just got home from work, and haven't even changed my clothes yet. Flowers are so seductive..... |
Thanks for the kind words above. All the flower pics in the forum are just gorgeous. I've enjoyed them all. That blue columbine, Pam, is just lovely. Great flower and picture. I have had sporadic success with columbines. I can't keep them going for some reason. I'll try to find the one good pic I have of one of mine. The azelas are lovely the way they envelope the picture. They are a total no go here so, I'll just have to enjoy yours Pam. The clematis pairing was great. Oh, I almost forgot, the white one is an oriental pear in bloom. The pink one above it is an Oklahoma redbud. And, excellent work deciphering the backlit morning glory macro. |
Some great macros alisande. |
The back-lighting is wonderful, and so are the macros! Great job. |
alisande, I love yours...everything is so crisp and clear. They're wonderful. Pam |
Thanks, guys! I love that the Internet gives us all a great way to share. |

Wonderful!!...all of you, I can see your hard work is paying off! Konrad |
The monarda above reminded me of one of mine I took a couple of weeks ago. I thought about saving it to post around Halloween the way it came out. |
rc, Monarda doesn't age well, does it. :) Mine looked about the same way as yours at that point. I've had discussions with gardening friends about how some blossoms "die well" and others....well, they just don't. |

Narciso Rodriguez Runway Fall 2012
Narciso Rodriguez Fall 2012
>> Fall 2012 had Narciso Rodriguez referencing some pretty varied inspiration: "Collaging, collecting, color, film stills, many artists, the film world," the designer listed after his show. For a less-disciplined type, this kind of vague assortment might run the risk of turning into a directionless jumble. Luckily, Rodriguez is nothing if not a minimalist, and so these pieces were bold, cohesive, and forward-thinking. The designer emphasized volume this season, working sculptural folds, architectural draping, and trapeze shapes into his signature silhouettes. Colorblocking — in a robust palette of green, tangerine, and red — was used to artful effect.
This season also marks the debut of Rodriguez's new accessory and shoe collection. In luxe leather, exotic skins, and enticing silhouettes, they were a gorgeous addition to an already-strong collection.

Lindsay Lohan scored an invite to last weekend's hottest event (that'd be Kim Kardashian's wedding), but it looks like she missed another big bash in L.A. last night.
It seems all but one of the Hollywood socialite set attended the bash for Charlotte Ronson's Sephora cosmetics line.
Paris Hilton, Nicky Hilton, Nicole Richie, Samantha Ronson, Rashida Jones and Lake Bell were all spotted at the soiree held at Il Sole, but LiLo was MIA.
So was Sam's former girlfriend left off the list?
It certainly sounds that way, according to an insider.
"Sam was there with her new girlfriend, Erin Foster," a partygoer tells me. "They're annoyed because Lindsay called the police a few days ago when they were having a party at Sam's apartment to complain about noise. She got the party shut down."
The onetime couple are next-door neighbors in Venice.
When I asked Lindsay's rep if she was or wasn't invited to last night's soiree, he told me he wasn't sure, adding, "It's not the kind of thing we spend time discussing."
As for whether Linds got Sam's house party busted, he says, "This is non-news if it even happened."
This wouldn't be the first time Lohan was a persona non grata at a Ronson fete.
Two years ago, she was denied at the door during Charlotte's party at Chateau Marmont.

There's a budget shortage at your favorite class-based game. It doesn't matter whether your favorite game is Final Fantasy XI or RIFT, the fact is that one of the classes has to go. Assume that said class is asking for unreasonable benefits, deferred signing bonuses, shares of the gross profits per expansion, whatever you want. What's important is that one of the classes is getting cut, and it's up to you to decide which one gets banished to the land of wind and ghosts.
So in said favorite game, which class gets the axe? Is it a class that you feel gets over-represented anyway that your specific game can live without (Final Fantasy XI's Ranger)? Is it a unique class without enough solid mechanics or interesting elements to keep itself afloat (Guild Wars' Ritualist)? Or is it a solid class that just feels like an unnecessary addition to an already-crowded landscape of different playstyles (Dungeon and Dragons Online's Favored Soul)? Which class seems like it would be missed the least if it were removed?
Every morning, the Massively bloggers probe the minds of their readers with deep, thought-provoking questions about that most serious of topics: massively online gaming. We crave your opinions, so grab your caffeinated beverage of choice and chime in on today's Daily Grind!

WOW's Death knights. When you level up a character and you reach level 58 and get in random dungeons, you got a DKs all over the place plus DK tanks that has no idea what he has to to do whatsoever. So the next 5 to 10 levels are really a pain to instance.

They are ROLE playing games not ROLL, as in you take on the role of a character, doesn't have anything to do with rolling dice.

I think perhaps the most useless class in GuildWars is the Paragon. They've been nerfed so heavily that I honestly think their primary attribute *IS* getting nerfed. They really need to either give Para some love and split up some of those skill functions & penalties for PVE & PVP to return some of their PVE functionality or just cut them out entirely.

Ok so I was browsing around the interwebs and whatnot and I came across Fusion Firearms. Builders of custom 1911s. Apparently this company was founded by the previous president of Dan Wesson firearms, Bob Serva. I think these pistols look pretty good for the price. They aren't an Ed Brown by any stretch of the imagination but they definitely rival a CZ Dan Wesson, Kimber, Springfield and the like. They seem to be basically the same as buying a Dan Wesson if you opt for one of their bobtail models. Pretty much the same thing except for the serrations on the top of the slide. They are less expensive than a comparable DW though. My question is, why aren't these pistols mentioned more? Are they just that unknown or are they problematic in some way (i.e. spotty QC, cheaper parts)?
An unrelated question, if one were looking for a commander sized 1911 in the custom range (think $1500+), would a Les Baer or Ed Brown be a better pistol? I've never had the pleasure of firing either of them but I have held comparable models side by side. I'm no smith and didn't really want to feel such high priced weapons up too much if I wasn't going to be buying so I'm not well versed in either manufacturer except what I see in their respective catalogs. I might be in the market for another 1911 and I think I'm going to really save up for one of the nicer weapons out there. Nothing in the $3000+ range though, but a~$2600 pistol might be something I'm willing to consider once I get to that point in savings.

I just realized my JC Penny was due four days ago (a whopping 32 dollar balance). I am going in to pay it today with the $15 late fee (that will teach me).
They don't actually report it on your credit report unless you a whole billing cycle late -- correct? |
Follow-Up Postings:
Ask JC Penney what their policy is. |
They will only report it if it is 30 days or more late. |
If this is the first time you are late ask them to wave the late charge. I missed a payment on my Discover Card for the first time last year. I had the card since 1995. They called me and I paid it over the phone, somehow I had missed the bill. When I asked they not only waved the late fee they waved the interest charges, too. |
Discover Card has the greatest customer service besides being able to make free pay by phone payments. They have waived interest too on me, when I accidentally did not get the call in soon enough to pay off the monthly balance. I have the minimum payment taken out of my checking account automatically to be assured there will never be a late payment, thus a late fee charge. |
I figured out why I was late. My card was ALWAYS due on the last day of the month. I opened it yesterday and it due 3/24/09. So I called and JCP told me they changed my billing cycle and notified me last September (like I'd remember). So, I asked if they could please remove the late charge and she said no problem. So, that made me happy. |

Adventure, relaxation and romance just outside Valle de Bravo
the outdoor activities. The zip line is amazing or there's kayaking in the lake and archery lessons.
Follow México City's well-heeled and head to the colonial town of Valle de Bravo. Two hours from the capital, this is the sojourn of choice for city-weary dwellers, popular for its typical Mexican pueblo colour and folklore, and infinite recreational opportunities. Just outside the town on Lake Avándaro, the charming Hotel Rodavento is a family-friendly escape set in forest and gardens. Entertaining every member of the family with food tastings and outdoor sports and activities, there's something for everyone here and Hotel Rodavento is the ideal base for all this fun and adventure. Hopeless romantics aren't forgotten either, with private floating dinners for two available on Rodavento's private lake. The 28 rooms are designed with minimal fuss, clean lines and plenty of natural light. Each has a cosy fireplace, bamboo furniture and a terrace with eye-popping views of the forest and lake. When days of zip-lining, archery, mountain biking and kayaking are over, Rodavento's bar offers well-earned rejuvenation with a glass (or two) of wine from its whopping wine cellar. Fresh local cuisine at the restaurant offers relaxed sophistication in a warm and welcoming setting. But the Wellness at Night spa services (natural water springs) are a tempting way to end the day to renew the mind, body and soul. Great for: weekday corporate retreats, private events and family fun.

Name-Your-Cost Radiohead Album Pirated More Than Purchased

Religion represents the country's regressive and conservative past. Egypt's future instead belongs to the younger generations of Egyptians.
Indeed, at the heart of the issue is how ultra-conservative and right-wing groups such as the Muslim Brotherhood overestimate the support they have among young Egyptians. In today's era of mass-communication and globalization, the right-wing is rapidly losing sway and influence everywhere.
Young people demand change and progress, not stasis. Young Arab secularists and atheists are in the process of breaking down the artificial barriers that the religious right has intentionally put up between groups of people.
There is no future in religion. It's only a matter of time before the Muslim Brotherhood goes the same way in its corner of the world as groups such as the Westboro Baptist Church have already gone in theirs -- marginalized, reviled and unwanted.
And that will be for good reason.

A seven-speed dual-clutch automatic is the S5's only transmission. Unfortunately, it's slow to get the 4000-pound cabrio moving off the line and painfully lethargic in its reactions to the steering-wheel-mounted shift paddles. Steering feel is surprisingly good, and unlike some other Audis, the S5 has an easily modulated, not-too-sensitive brake pedal. Despite using Audi's new powertrain layout, the nose-heavy S5's engine is still mounted completely in front of the axle centerline, resulting in a strong tendency toward understeer at the limit. Rear-biased Quattro all-wheel drive and an optional torque-vectoring rear differential (also seen in the S4) do a marvelous job of counteracting this bad habit, but they're effective only under (heavy) throttle.
In spite of some serious performance chops, the S5 looks and feels best cruising at a more sedate pace. The lack of acoustic engine drama is easily made up for by the incredible 505-watt Bang & Olufsen sound system, and optional head-level heaters mounted in the seats ensure that you can enjoy top-down motoring even when the mercury plummets. As a comfortable, fast, and luxurious - not to mention gorgeous - cruiser, the S5 is a very powerful shot fired back at the BMW 335i. We look forward to seeing how well the forthcoming onslaught of competitors fares. Game on!

Bill Seeks to Ease Organizing of Crime Stoppers in Mississippi
JACKSON, Miss. (AP) - A Crime Stoppers program was credited by Coahoma County Sheriff Andrew Thompson in April with helping solve the murder of a Clarksdale woman.
In 1996, a tip to the Greenville Crime Stoppers led to the arrest of two people embezzling money from car tag receipts.
Crime Stoppers programs, which number some 1,500 nationwide, operate hot lines that take anonymous tips about crimes and criminals and provides rewards of up to $1,000.
While working closely with law enforcement agencies, Crime Stoppers is a separate, nonprofit undertaking that depends on volunteers.
Funding for Crime Stoppers comes from a fee not to exceed $2 that is attached to convictions on misdemeanor violations, such as speeding tickets.
The idea has flourished in Mississippi over the past dozen years, with 25 programs in place serving 46 counties. Another program is expected soon in Tunica County.
Now, the success of Crime Stoppers has caught the eye of Mississippi lawmakers.
A bill moving through the Legislature would help local communities speed up the establishment of a Crime Stoppers in their towns.
In the past, citizen groups wanting to start a Crime Stoppers had to get approval one by one from the Legislature. The Senate bill would create a blanket Crime Stoppers law.
Sen. Glenn Hamilton, R-Maben, said the bill recognizes the success the programs have had around the state.
"This eliminates the counties and cities from having to come before us with local and private bills - sometimes two to three a year," Hamilton said. "This takes care of future programs that local communities want to establish and recognizes how extremely well they have worked."
The Department of Public Safety and the Mississippi Crime Stoppers Advisory Council will assist any community wanted to get started, said council chairman Rodney E. Frothingham, a Greenville physician.
"There are still some that don't have them and some areas where we are helping them get started," Frothingham said.
Frothingham and council vice chairman Charles N. Brown, who operates a security service in Starkville, said the Crime Stoppers organizations are keenly interested in the confidentiality of callers as well as program records.
Last summer, the Quincy, Ill., Crime Stoppers affiliate shut itself down after the identity of one of its tipsters was given to a defense attorney. The public defender said there should be no legal protection for anonymity especially when, as in that murder case, the tipster provided such clear details about the murder that the caller must have either witnessed the crime or talked to a witness.
"There are people out there who want to assist law enforcement, but they don't want to be dragged into court," Brown said. "We want to ensure the confidentiality as much as possible while recognizing that the laws of the state allow disclosure to a certain extent."
Brown said the program operates so well because callers know they will be protected.
Phone records from Crime Stoppers programs throughout the United States have been subpoenaed many times, officials say. Crime Stoppers has quashed them with the cooperation of the law enforcement groups seeking them, officials say.
Frothingham said if handled properly, Crime Stoppers never knows the identity of a caller.
"We never know their name. We never have their address. We never know anything about them except their information," he said. "We always tell them, 'We don't want your name. We want your information.'"

Boundaries of Contagion: How Ethnic Politics Have Shaped Government Responses to AIDS (Paperback)
Format: | Paperback 368 pages |
Not in stock
Usually despatched in 3-5 days
Delivered FREE
in the UK
Why have governments responded to the HIV/AIDS pandemic in such different ways? During the past quarter century, international agencies and donors have disseminated vast resources and a set of best practice recommendations to policymakers around the globe. Yet the governments of developing countries in sub-Saharan Africa, Asia, Latin America, and the Caribbean continue to implement widely varying policies. "Boundaries of Contagion" is the first systematic, comparative analysis of the politics of HIV/AIDS. The book explores the political challenges of responding to a stigmatized condition, and identifies ethnic boundaries - the formal and informal institutions that divide societies - as a central influence on politics and policymaking. Evan Lieberman examines the ways in which risk and social competition get mapped onto well-institutionalized patterns of ethnic politics. Where strong ethnic boundaries fragment societies into groups, the politics of AIDS are more likely to involve blame and shame-avoidance tactics against segments of the population. In turn, government leaders of such countries respond far less aggressively to the epidemic. Lieberman's case studies of Brazil, South Africa, and India - three developing countries that face significant AIDS epidemics - are complemented by statistical analyses of the policy responses of Indian states and over seventy developing countries. The studies conclude that varied patterns of ethnic competition shape how governments respond to this devastating problem. The author considers the implications for governments and donors, and the increasing tendency to identify social problems in ethnic terms.

So on another forum I'm on (sports forum), I mentioned that I'd love to buy an AR-15, but good luck finding one and buying it for anything that isn't exorbitantly overpriced.
Someone else mentioned that I could just as easily by the upper, lower, and whatever else, and basically build my own AR-15. I like the idea, but I have to wonder if (1) is this really feasible? (2) is it legal to build from scratch like that? and (3) just how much of a headache am I asking for if I try it.
Anyone with answers?

Last summer, as the flames of the Cave Creek Complex wildfire crept closer to Cave Creek, town officials were faced with the threat of evacuation. But the only method they had to warn residents was to go to each house individually.
"After the Cave Creek Complex fire we realized going door-to-door was not very effective for us," Town Marshal Adam Stein said. "We thought to ourselves 'there's got to be a better way.' "
After a little research they discovered a system, called Code Red, which allows emergency officials to quickly send recorded messages to residents in a "reverse 911" telephone system.
The town was the first community in the state to purchase the system for $10,000 a year, or $2.25 a resident. The system went into effect this week.
Now, in an emergency, Stein will simply use his laptop to map the area of town he would like to notify and record a message.
Within minutes, residents would receive the phone call and be alerted.
"The capability of the system is that it can make up to 60,000 phone calls in a one-hour period," Stein said. "Pretty good for a town that only had 4,500 residents."
The system will not only enhance emergency services during wildfire season, it enables the town to alert residents of any emergency. Besides Stein, only the town clerk and manager have access to the system.
"It's kind of like having a spare tire in your trunk. You hope you never have to use it, but you know it's there when you need it," he said.
The system came with the home numbers of town residents but residents can update their contact information and list their cell or work phone numbers as well by logging on to the town's Web site: www.cavecreek.org.
Resident Bob Moore was one of the first to include his contact information in Code Red. He said it took only 30 seconds.
"I think it's a superb program," he said.

UPDATE: The dirty, untagged, CD-quality version has now appeared online, so we've got it below.
Kanye is still going with this G.O.O.D. Fridays thing! That's that shit I do like. "Mercy," Kanye's last new track, came a couple of weeks ago, and now we've got an early leak of the next one: A posse-cut remix of "I Don't Like," a fiery viral hit from the teenage Chicago street-rapper Chief Keef. The new one features verses from Keef again, Pusha T, Jadakiss, Big Sean, and an on-fire, hometown-repping Kanye. Listen to the tagged-up, low-quality leak below; we'll put up a better version when we get one.
(via Rap-Up)
Chief Keef went from local viral-video thing to real, actual national thing really, really fast.

Tuesday, February 26, 2013, Reston, VAResearchers will meet at the Society of Toxicology's Annual Meeting and ToxExpo March 10-16 to discuss a number of health concerns that have received growing public attention over the past several months. In one of the presentations, scientists will explore how the development of an epidemiological database that focuses on recent arsenic related exposures might affect the risk assessment of arsenic in food. While epidemiological studies have established the disease risk to low level exposures, basic research has lagged behind in demonstrating a mechanism for the disease. Presenters will also talk about the occurrence of various forms of arsenic found in foods and their potential exposures. Another presenter will talk about research findings that suggest that exposures at younger ages have a disproportionately great affect than exposures at older ages.
In another session, scientists will talk about recent findings that suggest that salt reduction tends to increase the levels of hormones, cholesterol and triglycerides, which are all thought to be risk factors for heart disease. Some have asserted that while the risks of consuming too much salt are real, the risks have been exaggerated for the general population or that the studies done on the consumption of salt can be interpreted in many different ways.
In still another presentation, scientists will explore the links that have been found recently between developmental lead exposure and the onset of Alzheimer's disease in older people. Recent evidence suggests that the heavy metal lead may contribute to the causes of Alzheimer's disease. Lead is known to induce a wide-range of adverse health effects that are dependent on dose and duration of exposure. During development, the central nervous system is the most sensitive to lead neurotoxicity. Developmental lead exposure can initiate profound effects later in life on the nervous system related to Alzheimer's disease.

Some comments from typical Thai lady.
Some comments from typical Thai lady.
please be known that my comments are from only my experience.
Why do we look down Farang with dark woman?
- They don't have the minimum standard for their wife. ( I have no complain marrying with bar girl. What the reason do you choose her to be your wife? does she look hot? or what do you talk or discuss with each other after living together?)
- They express their love (or lust) improperly in the public for example Big Farang guy touched his dark hot Thai g/f in the BTS.
(in my humble opinion, some Farang guys may think Thailand is 'Land of Freedom' so you can do whatever you want.. even try something you've never dare to do it in your life before)
We can't refuse that our country is well-known in term of entertainment place; bar, massage, woman, sex. In the same time, we still have our own culture, tradition and manner. So, before you do something so wild, pls stop to think for a while.. what if here is your country.
Thai lady
RE: Some comments from typical Thai lady.
I agree that Thailand is seen by some as a land of freedom and people do what they would not do at home, but that same thing occurs in many high density tourist places all over the world. What you describe is not unique or exclusive to Thailand.

RE: Some comments from typical Thai lady.
1) "They don't have the minimum standard for their wife. ( I have no complain marrying with bar girl. What the reason do you choose her to be your wife? does she look hot? or what do you talk or discuss with each other after living together?)".
Often emotionally immature or naive farang men and women are lured into these relationships, by the Thai girl or boyfriend, her/ his family and friends :
without realising the trap which is being laid for them.
The trap lies in Thailand's anti-foreigner laws.
2) "They express their love (or lust) improperly in the public for example Big Farang guy touched his dark hot Thai g/f in the BTS.".
Now having returned to live in a Western country again, I am shocked by these public displays of affection - lust even.
But after living long time in Thailand,
I'm gradually realising I forgot this sort of behaviour is quite acceptable as normal in Western culture !!!!
RE: Some comments from typical Thai lady.
a thai lady who speaks the truth about the farangs who go there just for the sex and treat the girls as a play thing ..
thailand is one of the best countries I have been to. I am not talking about pattaya but the real Thailand, what a wonderful country
RE: Some comments from typical Thai lady.
I can swear that not all farang are big and fat. I am only 1,64 m and weight just 62 kilos, quite small by ''farang standards'' as you can see.
Regarding manners and behavior, I can also assure you that I prefer to touch my girl friend's BTS (What ever that means) in private. I just noticed that thai ladies feel uncomfortable showing affection in public.
Concerning the color of the skin, I detect that you don't exactly like the dark looking ladies. I wonder why? Well dear thai lady, I love then dark. I wouldn't change a brown looking lady for a pale one. But that's a matter of likes, of course.
Is Thailand the land of freedom where farang do things they wouldn't dear at their own countries? Think twice. Here in old and corrupted Europe you would see things that would really shock you. Just here in my own town, at the ordinary daily paper you can read hundreds of adverts from ladies and boys offering their services and explicitly telling what they are best at. (Please Bangkok Post don't get any ideas)
Talking about prostitution? Russians, Chinese, Brazilians, Rumanians, Bulgarians, Filipinos, Colombians, and so and so. All in big quantities, any price any time anywhere. And that's only just part of it. For reasons of space I prefer not to carry on.
For good or for bad no countries are isolated anymore. We live in 2008, in a globalize world. The social maladies that afflict your country are not the making of the farang, is just the world that we live in. Thailand is not an island anymore and like it or not we all are in the same boat.
Dear thai lady, what makes you so offended about farang with ''hot dark thai girls''? Anyway those girls in the words of your own country fellowmen are the ''left over'' that no thai men would want. So, why not to leave then in peace and give then a chance to better their lives.
Best regards
RE: Some comments from typical Thai lady.
First of all, I am a Thais who is pretty open in a globalize world even I've never been to either Europe or America. I do not mind if you guys show affection in public as "a lover". My point is the way Farang treated his woman in public like "a play thing". What i saw in BTS is "The guy touched his woman's ass" and laughed with his guy friend and the woman only kept silent.
Moreover, one of my colleage had to go around Nana area for her business one night. On the way back to BTS, one farang gay dropped her and asked her 'How much?'
Eventually, I feel upset with minority of Farang who behave like uneducated people in my country.

Explain record highs and lows in the early 1900's, and how those are not man made, yet now any change in temperature is man-made CO2.

From the Publisher
"This book offers an explanatory overview of ecocentric literary and cultural criticism and serves as an introduction to the concepts, methods, and arguments of ecocriticism."-Scott Slovic,Isle of Oxford Journals
"In this superb book, Timothy Clark has achieved what the best introductions for students achieve: brief, accurate and readable summaries of the main positions in a field, combined with a series of provocative and stimulating questions to be explored in class. Clark has done this and more - he has written a book that any ecocritic should read, since as well as setting out the central dilemmas with a rare clarity and sharpness, it asks searching questions that challenge some of ecocriticism's most established positions."
-Richard Kerridge, Green Letters

Wales Air Ambulance: Extra hours bring road crash work
Longer hours for Wales' air ambulances have led to a "significant" number of rescues at road crashes that crews would not have attended otherwise, the charity has said.
The service introduced a 14-hour operation from 7am-9pm this month, starting an hour earlier and finishing three hours later than usual.
Many missions have been early morning and late evening road crashes.
Wales has three helicopters - based in Swansea, Welshpool and Caernarfon.
- 4,100 of the 18,000 calls were to road crashes
- 22% involved motorcyclists
- 12% were to cyclists
- 6% were to pedestrians
- 2,100 calls were to sports and leisure injuries
- 670 calls were to horse riders
- 20% were to injuries on rugby pitches
Since 1 September, its three bases have been working a staggered rota seven days per week.
Caernarfon crews work from 7am-7pm, the Swansea base from 8am-8pm and Welshpool from 9am-9pm.
For the past 12 years, since its launch on St David's Day 2001, the service has operated from 8am-6pm.
The longer hours follow a six-month trial at the Welshpool base.
A Swansea crew member said: "We've completed a significant number of missions that we would not have been able to do without the extended shifts.
"In particular, we are attending serious trauma incidents like road traffic collisions that are happening first thing in the morning and later at night as people head home.
"Already we are seeing that there are still patients that need us and we can now help them by being on standby for rapid activation for longer."
Night flyingLast month the emergency service recorded its 18,000th rescue when a 57-year-old man who had suffered a brain haemorrhage was airlifted.
Earlier this year, it began trialling night flying from the charity's Welshpool base.
The air ambulance service said its Eurocopter EC 135 helicopter used in the trial is the newest and most advanced air ambulance in the UK.
The service, which answers 2,000 calls a year, costs £6m a year to run - all raised from charitable donations from the public.

In both form and content, then, Genesis 1 reveals that its basic purposes are religious and theological, not scientific or historical.
Divine Hiddenness is the claim that our public evidence is strong enough to make Christian faith reasonable, but not strong enough to make it compelling.
In the early 1700s, Isaac Newton and Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz famously disagreed about whether God periodically "corrected" the orbits of the planets. Why their disagreement matters for today's debates about God and evolution.
Part 3 of the series "Evolution and Original Sin, by Robin Collins"
The one thing on which the entire Genesis debate hinges is whether we acknowledge the role played by hermeneutics.
Pope Francis is reiterating a basic claim in Catholic Christianity: If one acknowledges that God creates by giving creatures not only their existence but also their natures, one can reconcile an evolutionary worldview with the Christian faith.
While reading about and studying the processes that gave rise to this astonishing world, please don't forget that it is beautiful. It is not merely mechanics, but poetry.
The former chair of the Harvard University physics department muses on how faith gives meaning to his scientific work.
Written by BioLogos Fellow of Biology Dennis Venema, this series of posts is intended as a basic introduction to the science of evolution for non-specialists.
Theology needs science, but science needs theology; there can be no two-state solution.
In this video originally featured in March of 2012, Dr. David Finch, a biologist at New York University, discusses his thoughts on both Creationism and the effects of "new atheists" like Richard Dawkins.
Here are some of the best responses from around the web to David's Barash's controversial editorial about God and Evolution in the New York Times.
"We should be slow to accuse another of discarding the authority of Scripture, and therefore denouncing them, just because they interpret Scripture differently than we do."
From a Judeo-Christian perspective, all of these curiosities dovetail into a profoundly meaningful explanation: Being made in God's image helps to explain our creative and investigative skills, particularly when we consider that God has specially engineered this universe to reveal himself to human beings.

Mitt Romney / Bobby Jindal in 2012
We the undersigned respectfully call upon Governor Mitt Romney of Massachusetts to run for President of the United States in 2012. We believe his experience in turning around institutions towards success is an assett that is very much needed in this country during dire times. Mr. Romney has spent the last 35 years of his life turning around businesses, the 2002 Salt Lake Olympics, and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts from ruin. As President we believe that Mr. Romney would fundamentally change the U.S. government to empower her nations citizens and unleash the innovative spirit of the American people. We truly believe that he is capable of implementing pragmatic solutions to our nations problems regardless of political ideology. If our efforts come to fruition and Governor Romney is nominated by the Republican Party for President in 2012; we respectfully request that Governor Piyush "Bobby" Jindal be placed in consideration as a possible running mate. Governor Jindal has been a brilliant executive for the State of Louisiana. We feel a strong executive in Jindal's mold would be crucial in fixing a broken federal government. It is imperative that we leave behind to our descendents a Free and Strong America. We believe a President Romney and a Vice President Jindal would provide us that opportunity.

Tata Group Chairman Ratan Tata has said that though India has many changes of government, the outlook "might not be as bad" as one might think.
However, Mr. Tata, who was awarded an honorary doctorate of business from the University of New South Wales, said he felt that the fabric of Indian values and ethics was "slowly deteriorating", especially in the business community.
He made it clear that his group, India's largest conglomerate, was based on strong ethics and would not participate in corruption and bribery.
"India (may have) had many changes of government, but the outlook 'might not be as bad as you might think...I would have hope,'' The Australian daily quoted him as saying.
Mr. Tata said he expected China to move towards democracy. He said many democracies would also have to find ways of "enforcing what they want to do if they want to move forward.''
Bilateral trade
He Australia and India should step up bilateral trade ties, especially in high-technology areas adding that there were good reasons for the countries to "do much more together than they have done.'' There were areas of high technology where Australia was "at the forefront" and India could benefit from this. India seeks some of the technology that Australia produces," he said.

GREENVILLE -- Fluor Field was set to host the second game in Clemson and South Carolina's baseball series. Now, after Saturday's game was postponed by heavy rains, Greenville will get the deciding game in the series.
First pitch is set for 7 p.m. tonight from the home of the Class A Greenville Drive. The game will be televised on WMMP-TV.
Sophomore left-hander Adam Westmoreland (0-0, 3.60 ERA) will start for the Gamecocks against Clemson junior right-hander David Haselden (1-0, 1.64 ERA), even though Haselden threw an inning (22 pitches) in relief Sunday.
The rivalry between the No. 4 Gamecocks (8-1) and No. 10 Tigers (7-2) wasn't hurting before the weekend -- but it's only gained steam since Friday. Quite a bit, actually.
South Carolina took the Friday night opener, 6-3, getting seven innings from College World Series hero Michael Roth and two-run home runs from Brady Thomas, Christian Walker and Scott Wingo.
After Saturday's unexpected off day, things got wild Sunday afternoon at Doug Kingsmore Stadium. After Jackie Bradley Jr.'s first-inning home run to left field -- Bradley's opposite field, but with the prevailing wind -- Jack Leggett asked to see Bradley's bat.
Both USC head coach Ray Tanner and associate head coach Chad Holbrook say they never received specific word about what was being questioned, but some have suggested that the Gamecocks have been heating the new mandated composite bats.
Holbrook said that was true -- but USC was using readily available sunlight to do so.
"Maybe Clemson needs to be asked what the problem was," Holbrook said Monday on the team's flagship station, WNKT-FM (107.5 "The Game"). "All I know is it never has been a part of anything going on. You can't do anything to these bats. You try like crazy to keep them as warm as you can. You don't want them cold.
"We've got some players with some injury problems, with their thumbs, because they vibrate so bad. There's nothing in a rulebook. There's nothing, anything written down anywhere whatsoever that (says) keeping the bat in the sunlight makes the bat perform better."
Holbrook then pointed out the Gamecocks finished with five hits in Clemson's 10-5 come-from-behind victory.
"They outperformed us. You've got to tip your hat to them," Holbrook said. "I really don't know what the accusation was. I can assure you there's nothing -- never has been, never will be -- anything from a rules-breaking standpoint going on in our dugout."
Bradley Jr. took to Twitter late in the afternoon.
"I love our bats," he said, adding an emoticon smile. "Some people call it showing off, I call it swag. Maybe you should learn the difference."
Leggett declined to talk about the incident after the game.
Despite a handful of errors and few hits, South Carolina took a 5-4 lead in the eighth inning. Clemson then rallied for six runs against USC All-America closer Matt Price, who now has a 10.12 ERA after the blown save.
On Monday morning, Roth tweeted that Tigers center fielder Will Lamb called Price "soft" after Sunday's game. That comment turned out to be accurate, but it was about South Carolina starter Tyler Webb and not Price.
"It doesn't matter who it is about," Roth said later. "You call one of us out, you call all of us out."
Tanner later weighed in on Columbia radio.
"I don't think there's a place in the game for any of those kind of comments," Tanner said. "Sometimes young people say things they shouldn't say. In (his) case, if he said it, I would advise against it."
Going back to the College World Series, South Carolina had won 14 consecutive games until Sunday's loss to Clemson. The Gamecocks have won 13 of the past 19 in the series, but the Tigers did take the regular season series last year before USC got revenge in Omaha.
"Only positive stuff can come out of that win," Lamb said Sunday. "It was just a satisfactory win, and we needed to redeem ourselves after what happened in Omaha."
--Clemson pitcher Kevin Brady (2-0) will be sidelined two weeks with a strained forearm. The sophomore right-hander started Sunday's game against South Carolina, giving up three hits and one earned run while striking out four in four innings.
