Sleuths on web identified Magnotta
The volunteers who have been tracking a kitten killer for a year and a half-believe Luka Magnotta has been playing cat and mouse with them from the beginning.
It started on Dec. 21, 2010, when someone called Uonlywish500 uploaded a video to YouTube showing a young man suffocating two kittens in a plastic bag using a vacuum cleaner.
On Dec. 22, a group of animal lovers formed a Facebook group dedicated to finding the person they called Vacuum Kitten Killer.
They realized whoever posted the video was playing games with them from the start because the only other YouTube video that Uonlywish500 "liked" was the opening credit sequence of Catch Me If You Can, a 2002 film about a man who eludes police for years using assumed identities.
Within weeks, Vacuum Kitten Killer uploaded pictures and another video featuring the dead kittens.
The Facebook group looked through the pictures and video seeking clues to his identity, hoping to alert the authorities, in part because they were afraid he would kill a person.
In January 2011, they received an anonymous message identifying the kitten killer as Luka Magnotta, and saying, falsely, that he lived in West Hollywood.
They believe Magnotta -- now being sought on a global warrant as the suspect in the slaying and mutilation of a Chinese college student in Montreal -- tipped them off.
"It was him," said Baudi, a female member of the Facebook group.
"He wants the attention. We're doing exactly what he wants. It's been a cat-and-mouse game with him," said John, another group member. "He wants us to chase after him. So he leaves information, little clues, that lead us to him."
Three members of the group -- none of whom are Canadian -- agreed to an interview on Friday on condition their real identities not be revealed, because they are afraid of Magnotta.
After a lot of online searching, the volunteers discovered an Ontario legal document that showed he had changed his name from Eric Newman to Magnotta in 2006.
A core group of about a dozen volunteers -- aided by hundreds of others -- spent thousands of hours trying to find him, meticulously analyzing his sprawling Internet presence, going over pictures and videos for clues, while he toyed with them, leaving false trails, interacting with them using a wide variety of social-media sock puppets, hiding his IP address.
When they discovered how to decode date and location data from photos he posted, he learned from that, and started altering the codes before he posted photos.
By February of 2011, the volunteers tracked him to Toronto, and working with the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, approached the Ontario Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, which approached Toronto police.
A detective in Division 55 of the Toronto Police Service took the information and worked the file hard, trying to find him in Toronto. But by that point, group members now believe, Magnotta had moved to Montreal.
In January 2012, they discovered a photo of him posing on a set of steps with a lamp post and greenery behind him.
"We analyzed the stuff like crazy," says Baudi. "We're looking at light posts, which are unique to a certain city. So we're like, let's look at Montreal, let's look at Toronto, let's look at Russia. So we just went to Google Maps and literally went street to street and started looking for street lights."
After many hours of searching, they determined he was in Montreal, then eventually figured out where the photo was taken, at the corner of Rue McTavish and Avenue du Docteur Penfield, on the McGill campus.
"We really honestly thought that if we gave police information on his location that he would be apprehended," says Baudi.
"We thought that if he wasn't apprehended he would move on to humans. We were very public about that. It's not like we were obsessed but we were determined to get him apprehended. Spending all night going down Google Streetview wasn't out of the question."
They never figured out his Montreal address, but a Montreal member of their wider group took what information they had to the Montreal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, which took the case seriously, and to the Montreal Police Service, which said it could do nothing.
Another group member, Alex, contacted a psychiatric facility where Magnotta was previously a resident.
"It was all, 'We can't do anything because they won't be able to do that. And they won't be able to do anything because somebody else can't do that.' There was nothing they could do."
The group members, who are doing their best to help investigators in Montreal, are very upset their efforts were in vain.
"He's either the greatest genius in the world or the craziest person we've ever encountered, and there's a fine line between those two things," says John.
"As crazy as we think he is, he has been able to somehow evade the police for a while. We're seeing that evident right now."
"We don't want Luka harmed," says Baudi. "We want him to get help. He is severely sick, like severely sick. He's a sick ****."

Villa snap up Sutton
04 Oct 2006 - 08:04:40
Aston Villa manager Martin O'Neill has snapped up former Celtic striker Chris Sutton until the end of the season after learning that Luke Moore faces a lengthy spell on the sidelines with a shoulder injury.
Sutton is the third ex-Bhoys star O'Neill has signed recently following the captures of Stilian Petrov and Didier Agathe with the Villa boss working with all three players at Celtic Park.
Sutton became a free agent after leaving Birmingham City at the end of last season and played for Norwich City, Blackburn Rovers and Chelsea earlier in his career.
The 33-year-old told Villa's official website: "I'm pleased it's all sorted out now and I'm looking forward to getting started at Villa.
"Hopefully I can fit in fairly well and knowing Stilian Petrov and Didier Agathe will obviously help.
"I don't feel I've got a point to prove. I just want to do well. First and foremost I want to get fully-fit and get into contention. I'll hopefully do that sooner rather than later and the aim is to soon be pushing for a starting place.
"Obviously I want to be fit as soon as I can. I had an operation a while back and I'm still recovering from that. I'm really looking forward to returning to action and getting back to full fitness."
In a 15-year professional career, Sutton has scored 150 goals in 402 League appearances for his five clubs.

Eklund at HockeyBuzz is reporting...
Something is definitely up as I continue to hear rumours of a MAJOR deal between the Oilers and Rangers. I always just assumed this deal was tied to Sundin, but it appears that there are two deals being discussed: "One that would occur should the Rangers sign Mats, and one that would occur if they don't."
...this rumor might actually have some legs because of the Rangers possible interest in getting rid of salary to sign Sundin.
...Edmonton is $2.7 million under the cap and could afford Petr Prucha's $1.6 million salary.

Eh, I'm not really crazy about any of the Oilers, obviously except Hemsky. The Oilers don't have much cap space either, so it wouldn't be a huge salary dump.

FACEBOOK FILES FOR IPO (Update 1)
Updated from 5:09 p.m. ET to include additional information from the filing.
MENLO PARK, Calif. ( TheStreet) -- Facebook finally filed to go public on Wednesday with the social networking giant seeking to raise $5 billion in what would be the largest-ever tech IPO.
The 202-page S-1 filing reveals that Morgan Stanley (MS - Get Report) will be the lead underwriter for the Facebook IPO, with Goldman Sachs (GS - Get Report) , Barclays Capital (BCS), Bank of America Merrill Lynch (BAC), J.P. Morgan (JPM - Get Report) and Allen & Company all involved.
Facebook brought in revenue of $3.711 billion in 2011, up from $1.974 billion in 2010 and $777 million in 2009. Social gaming giant Zynga (ZNGA) accounted for 12% of the company's revenue in 2011.
The company warned though that it expects its growth rates to decline in the future. "Our user growth and revenue growth rates will inevitably slow as we achieve higher market penetration rates, as our revenue increases to higher levels, and as we experience increased competition," Facebook said, in its S-1. Facebook currently has 845 million users, according to the filing, and has $3.9 billion in cash and cash equivalents. "We are in the early days of pursuing our mission to make the world more open and connected," explained Facebook, in the filing. "Advertising on the social web is a significant market opportunity that is still emerging and evolving. We believe that most advertisers are still learning and experimenting with the best ways to leverage Facebook to create more social and valuable ads." The company's CEO Mark Zuckerberg received total compensation of around $1.5 million in 2011. -- Written by James Rogers in New York. >To follow the writer on Twitter, go to http://twitter.com/jamesjrogers. >To submit a news tip, send an email to: firstname.lastname@example.com Out Our Best Services for Investors

Year of the Fish
"Year of the Fish" is a tawdry tale about a Chinese immigrant girl sold into Manhattan massage parlor servitude. Although writer/director David Kaplan attempts to elevate his amateur narrative attempt with the same rotoscoping animation technique that Richard Linklater used to great effect with "Waking Life" and "A Scanner Darkly," the effect comes across as overwrought. Inspired by the Cinderella fairytale Kaplan follows young Ye Xian (An Nguyen) as she enters New York's Chinatown world of happy-endings where she refuses to engage in polishing any knobs. The parlor's owner Mrs. Su (Tsai Chin) punishes Ye by making her responsible for cleaning every inch of the establishment. A hunchbacked witch adds a touch of magical realism by giving Ye a goldfish that will bring her good fortune. But the only good fortune audiences will find lies in skipping this sorry tale. (Gigantic Pictures) Not Rated. 96 mins. (C-) (Two Stars)

text: UNC Orthopaedics Alex Creighton, M.D. Office Phone: 919-966-9066 Sports Medicine Office Fax: 919-966-6730 3143 Bioinformatics Building Email: email@example.com Chapel Hill, NC 27599-7055 PATIENT GUIDE TO SHOULDER INSTABILITY What is shoulder instability? Shoulder instability is a cause of shoulder pain. The shoulder can dislocate (the ball comes completely out of the socket) or subluxate (the ball comes partially out of the socket). After this happens, pain and inability to use the shoulder occurs. Shoulder instability is the result of damage to the shoulder ligaments that keep the ball connected to the socket. How does shoulder instability occur? Many times, the shoulder ligaments tear from a single violent injury, such as a football tackle or motor vehicle accident. However, they can also be stretched from repeated strenuous use. How do I know my shoulder is unstable? In many cases, the patient knows they have shoulder instability because they need someone to reduce the joint back into place (such as an emergency room physician). In other cases, the patient primarily complains of pain in the shoulder, with subtle feelings of slipping. The examination in the office usually confirms the diagnosis of shoulder instability. Do I need x-rays, MRIs, or any other test? A set of x-rays is usually ordered to make sure there are no fractures (broken bone) in the shoulder. Commonly, a small fracture in the area of the dislocation can occur on the humeral head, called a Hill-Sachs lesion. A MRI can sometimes be helpful to confirm the tear of the ligament off of the bone (Bankart lesion), and evaluate for other shoulder problems. Occasionally, the MRI is performed with dye (gadolinium) to help see the ligaments. Is there other damage to the shoulder in cases of instability? The labrum (where the shoulder ligaments attach) is usually torn in cases of shoulder instability. In addition, there are sometimes fractures of the ball or socket of the shoulder. Rarely, there is also a rotator cuff tear in cases of instability. A rotator cuff tear is more common in patients over the age of 40 with a shoulder dislocation. What are the treatment options for shoulder instability? The treatment primarily depends on the patient's age, activity level, and number of dislocations of the shoulder. When a patient dislocates their shoulder for the first time, they can commonly be treated in a sling with early rehabilitation. However, for patients with repeat episodes of instability, the usual treatment is surgery to fix the ligaments. How is shoulder instability treated with surgery? Shoulder instability is usually repaired with arthroscopic techniques. The arthroscope is a fiber optic instrument (narrower than a pen) which is put into the joint through small incisions. A camera is attached to the arthroscope and the image is viewed on a TV monitor. The arthroscope allows me to fully evaluate the entire shoulder joint, including the ligaments, the rotator cuff, and the cartilage surface. Small instruments ranging from 3-5 millimeters in size are inserted through additional incisions so that I can feel the joint structures for any damage, diagnose the injury, and then repair, reconstruct, or remove the damaged tissue. In shoulder instability surgery, the damaged labrum and ligaments are identified and then repaired back to the socket. This is usually performed by using suture anchors (a metal rivet with sutures attached) to sew the ligaments back in place. In some cases, a bioabsorbable anchor (an anchor that dissolves over time) is used. Occasionally, if the damage is severe or longstanding, the surgery needs to be performed with an open incision. This is a larger incision on the front of the shoulder used to get to the shoulder joint and repair the ligaments. What are some of the possible complications? While complications are not common, all surgery has associated risk. One possible complication includes stiffness of the shoulder after surgery. The use of arthroscopic techniques attempts to limit this complication. Other complications include recurrent instability, infection, bleeding, nerve damage, or problems with the anesthesia. What kind of anesthesia is used? I use a combination of general anesthesia and regional anesthesia. Before the surgery, the anesthesiologist will inject some novocaine around the nerves of the shoulder. This numbs the arm and helps to control your pain after surgery. In addition, you go to sleep (general anesthesia) to help keep you comfortable during surgery. What do I need to do to prepare for surgery? Our staff will help to set up the surgery through your insurance company and will instruct you on any paperwork that may be necessary. Prior to your surgery, you will be asked to get several medical tests, done on an outpatient basis. Most patients need some minor blood tests and a urinalysis. If you are over age 50, you may require an EKG and chest x-ray. Some patients need to see an internist or their family doctor to obtain clearance for surgery. The night before the surgery, a member of our staff will contact you about what time to arrive for surgery. You may not eat or drink anything after midnight the night before your surgery. How long will I be in the hospital? Almost all patients are able to have surgery and go home the same day. Occasionally, patients will be admitted for an overnight stay. What happens the day of surgery? The morning of your surgery you will be admitted and taken to a pre-operative holding are where you area prepared for surgery. You will be asked several times which extremity I am operating on. The night before surgery or the morning of surgery YOU will mark the non-operative side "WRONG" and the correct side "YES". Please note that you are asked this question many times on purpose. After the operation, you will be taken to the recovery room to be monitored. Once the effects of anesthesia have worn off and your pain is under good control, you will be taken to another area where you can see your family and finish recovering. You will be given all of your post-operative instructions and pain medication before leaving. Please be aware that the process of getting checked in, prepared for surgery, undergoing the operation, and recovering from anesthesia takes the majority of the day. I would recommend that you and your family members bring along some reading material to make the process easier for all. How should I care for my shoulder after surgery? Prior to your discharge, you will be given specific instructions on how to care for your shoulder. In general, you can expect the following: Diet: Resume your regular diet as soon as tolerated. It is best to start with clear liquids before advancing to solid food. Medication: You will be given a prescription for pain medication. Bandage: You will have a thick dressing on the shoulder. You will be instructed on when it can be removed, usually in 3 days. Showering: You may shower after your dressing is removed, after 5 days. You cannot take a bath until the wounds are completely sealed, usually 2 – 3 weeks after surgery. Sling: You will have a sling, which you will use for 4 weeks. You can remove it for grooming and physical therapy. Ice: You may receive an ice machine that continually surrounds your shoulder with cold water. If not, you may apply ice over the dressings for 30 minutes every hour for several days. Do not use heat. Suture removal: Your stitches will be removed at your office visit 7-10 days after surgery. Occasionally, sutures are used which resorb and do not need to be removed. Follow-up office visit: You will be instructed on when to follow-up in the office. This is usually 7-10 days after surgery. Exercise: You will be instructed on exercises you can do immediately after surgery. You will start physical therapy within 1 to 2 weeks after surgery. Return to work or school: You can return to school or work within 3 – 5 days without using the affected arm. If you need the use of the arm to return, you may be out of work or school for a longer period of time. What will rehabilitation involve? The rehabilitation is based on several goals: 1) allowing the tissue to heal; 2) regaining motion; 3) regaining strength; and 4) return to sports. The rehabilitation protocol for the physical therapist is attached for you to review. When can I return to sports? In general, you will be allowed to return to sports in 6 months after surgery. You must have good motion, strength, and control of your shoulder and arm. How quickly you return to sports depends on several factors, including: 1) your own rate of healing; 2) the damage found at surgery; 3) if you have any complications; 4) how well you follow the post-operative instructions; 5) how hard you work in rehabilitation. What is the success rate? Overall, the success rate for shoulder instability surgery ranges from 85 to 95% for attaining a stable shoulder. Our commitment The entire UNC Department of Orthopaedics Sports Medicine team is committed to you, the patient. We understand that you may be anxious about your injury and the need for surgery. Please contact me with any questions about your injury or treatment plan. Alex Creighton, M.D.

Nose still suffering from post-fermentation stress, but the palate successfully combines lively acidity and a smidgeon of residual sugar to deliver a fair entry-level trocken. (6/ 2012)
A savory style, with notes of richness to the ripe berry and white fruit flavors. Crisp and well-spiced on the minerally finish. Drink now through 2016. (4/ 2013)
A wonderfully dry, but not mouth-searing style of Riesling for those who love the delicate attributes of the noble Riesling varietal but aren't keen on any residual sugar. The 2011 is a touch friendlier and more crowd pleasing than the stern 2010. Fantastically versatile, this offers up taught flavors of salty lemon, a touch of smoky minerality, lean stone fruit and a nice persistence through the finish. Makes for a nice aperitif or to wash down grilled sausages and even matches deliciously with smoked fish.
Below is a listing of the wine review scores we frequently reference in our notes. While these sources remain an excellent source of information, we always recommend that you trust your own palate. Scores in these publications often represent the personal taste of an individual critic, which may not always coincide with your own.

CHICAGO, Dec. 8— The GATX Corporation said today that it would take fourth-quarter charges of $150 million to pay for job cuts, write-downs and asset sales at two units, in moves prompted in part by reduced use of its petroleum terminals.
GATX, based in Chicago, said it would dismiss 300, or 20 percent, of the workers at GATX Terminals. The unit, which stores petroleum and chemicals, has also closed sales offices, installed new computers and centralized operations, a spokesman, George Lowman, said.
The realignment comes as makers of petroleum and chemical products store smaller volumes for less time in an effort to cut costs by carrying less inventory.
GATX's shares rose $3.25, to $67.0625.
GATX's customers now store about 60 million to 70 million barrels a month, down from 140 million, Mr. Lowman said. Storage time has fallen to about a day from a week in recent years.
The company did not say which operations would be sold or closed. GATX has already dismissed 200 of the 300 workers it plans to dismiss at the terminals unit.

7:05 PM ET, April 30, 2005
RFK Stadium, Washington, D.C.
WASHINGTON (AP) -- There was water where dirt should be all across the infield. Cliff Floyd slipped on his way out of the batter's box. Vinny Castilla lobbed a throw to first base for the final out because he couldn't grip the ball properly.
As well as Tomo Ohka pitched on short notice, allowing two hits in six shutout innings, here's all anyone needs to know about the Washington Nationals' 5-3 victory over the New York Mets on Saturday night, which was called before the bottom of the eighth because of rain:Both managers protested the game."The conditions were deplorable. I couldn't see anything. I caught a popup and I still don't know if I caught it," Mets catcher Mike Piazza said. "You needed a canoe to get on the field. I'd be surprised if they can get it ready for tomorrow."Nationals manager Frank Robinson was ejected a few minutes before play was stopped. He said he cursed while arguing with the umpires about why the game wasn't halted and why more dirt wasn't put on the water-logged infield."Our job is to get the game in," crew chief Joe West said. "Our job ain't to make Frank happy."Robinson certainly wasn't -- nor were many people in either clubhouse at RFK Stadium, which has had field problems in its first month of hosting major-league baseball since 1971."It was definitely putting every player on field in jeopardy of getting hurt," said Floyd, whose three-run double in the eighth off reliever Gary Majewski extended his hitting streak to 16 games. "The outfield was horrible. You slip out there and hurt yourself, there's nothing else to say: You're on the 15-day disabled list."Pitchers have complained about the mound, which is being rebuilt next week. There have been complications with the Nationals' sharing the field with Major League Soccer club D.C. United. The Nationals lost 2-1 to Atlanta on April 21 when Cristian Guzman made a throwing error in the ninth on a similarly muddy infield after hours of rain.Washington's Jose Vidro thought the conditions were worse Saturday."That was ridiculous. ... A lot of us could have been hurt. People in our front office, they should think about -- next time they know the rain is coming -- calling off the game," the second baseman said. "The draining is not the same as other fields, because this field is very old. This is something they need to work on."Said Mets manager Willie Randolph: "I've been in baseball a lot of years and I've never seen anything quite like that."Showers fell steadily from the fifth inning on -- there was a 30-minute delay during the sixth -- and the infield was filled with puddles by the eighth.By then, Ohka's day was done. A late replacement for an ailing Zach Day (inner-ear infection), Ohka improved to 2-3 and lowered his ERA from 5.85 to 4.50, leaving after 89 pitches. He retired 12 of his first 13 batters and finished with three strikeouts and only one walk. That free pass was part of his lone troublesome inning, the fifth.He gave up a single, made a throwing error, and walked Victor Diaz to load the bases. But Ohka struck out pinch-hitter Eric Valent and got Jose Reyes on a comebacker to end the inning."He's back to powering the ball," pitching coach Randy St. Claire said, adding that Ohka's velocity was back to around 90 mph on his four-seam fastball, up from 85 in his last outing, on April 23, when he lasted just three innings against the Mets.The Mets' fourth straight loss allowed the Nationals to finish their first month in Washington with a 13-11 record. Last year, as the Montreal Expos, the club went 5-20 in April en route to finishing 67-95.Castilla put Washington ahead 2-0 in the first inning with a two-run double off Victor Zambrano (1-3). The Mets starter handed Nick Johnson a four-pitch walk with the bases loaded in the fourth to make it 3-0.Manny Aybar gave up solo shots to Ryan Church in the fifth and Johnson in the sixth to give Washington a 5-0 edge.After Floyd closed the gap, Robinson went out to pull Majewski, wound up arguing with the umpires -- and the ejection drew boos from some who remained from an announced crowd of 40,913, the Nationals' largest since their home opener.Hector Carrasco came on and earned his first major-league save since July 19, 2003, by getting Piazza to ground out to Castilla to end the top of the eighth. When Mets reliever Mike DeJean tried to warm up for the bottom of the eighth, West sent the players off. During that second rain delay, which lasted 37 minutes, the grounds crew had trouble getting the white tarp across the entire infield, repeatedly getting stuck near third base. With more than 30 people tugging, it took several stops and starts and about a half-hour for them to cover all the dirt."What you hear [from umpires] now is, 'You've got to get the game in,'" Robinson said. "That's well and fine, but you've got to use common sense."Game notes
Zambrano allowed four hits, three walks and three runs in four innings. ... Jose Guillen was twice hit by pitches by Zambrano, meaning the Nationals' outfielder was plunked three times in two nights by New York pitchers.

Marion Write - Everybody Move
Artist: Marion Write
Producer: Marion Write
Album: Epilogue to Greatness
Avg Rating: 4.2 ( 22 votes )
Considering the city's high crime rates and reputation as the "big ballin'" capital of the world, you'd expect Las Vegas to breed plenty of big-name hip-hop artists, but, for whatever reason, that isn't the case. Marion Write, a dual Sin City/Virginia Beach native who reps Vegas' positive side, is looking to change that. On this newly-released mixtape cut, the emcee asks that Everybody Move and vibe to his new-school sound. Fellow up-and-comer Nique chips in a middle verse, but the highlight here is Write's up-tempo, Kanye-inspired beat, centered around a sample from College Dropout track Two Words. Everybody Move is the perfect soundtrack to a leisurely cruise among the bright city lights—those digging this track are sure to find more to their liking on Marion Write's Epilogue to Greatness mixtape, set to hit the net August 21st.

The San Juan mountains around Telluride offer some of the best adventures and views in all of Colorado, if not the entire US. Ballard Mountain towers almost 13,000 feet above the town of Telluride, with unbelievable "out the back gate" access. Seldom explored, Ballard offers pristine alpine forests, wildflowers, local history, and jaw dropping views with little to no traffic. The Ballard Trail is a tough 4700 vertical foot climb in just over three miles of hiking. This trek is not for the faint of heart, but those who love to walk the trails a little more secluded. Ballard is truly an overlooked gem in the San Juan Mountains.
This is a strenuous hike, and should not be attempted by those still adjusting to the high elevation of Telluride. I recommend only attempting Ballard in the summer months after June when the majority of the snow has melted. Bring plenty of water, extra food, a warm layer, raincoat, and sunscreen. The only available water for dogs is at the base of the peak, so make sure to bring extra water for your four legged friends. Lightening is a serious concern during the summer months in the high country. Makes sure to check weather conditions before you start, and pay close attention to incoming storm fronts. If you foresee a storm interrupting your summit attempt, turn around before the storm catches you in the exposure above treeline. An early start can usually guarantee a safe trip, and I highly recommend it. Have fun, stay on the trails, pack out your trash, and enjoy my back yard!
Points of Interest
Bear Creek Preserve
The start of our climb begins in the gorgeous Bear Creek Preserve. Offering million dollar views right off the streets of Telluride, the preserve was a gift to the town and people of Telluride. Bear Creek Road can begins at the end of South Pine Street in the heart of Telluride. FYI: The walk up Bear Creek road to Bear Creek Falls is a perfect warm up to a trip in Telluride.
Double Log Bridge
Around 0.8 miles up Bear Creek Road, you will come to an open meadow that descends down to Bear Creek. Cross a somewhat hidden log "bridge" and follow the trail that begins up the lower flank of Ballard. The trail comes to two separate junctions. Follow all junctions right, and begin the long and unyielding climb up Ballard.
Photo 1: The double log bridge across Bear Creek.
Photo 2: Bear Creek roaring during the early summer snow melt.
Following Footsteps
This trail was originally created by hearty miners and their mule teams over 100 years ago. The path is littered with remnants of their occupation, and the hike itself offers terrific insight on just how tough these men really were. Their is an old Boarding House where miners lived and worked out of in one of the basins below the summit of Ballard. The two story structure fell down over a decade ago, but the ruins can still be found by those willing to search.
Photo: An old log miners shack at the base of Ballard.
Chuck's Legacy
As previously mentioned, both the Ballard and Deer Tail Basin Trail are old mining trails. Over the decades, they both fell into horrible disrepair due to Telluride's brutal winters, overgrowth, and tree fall. Ten years ago, local mountaineering legend Chuck Kroger made it his mission to re-establish both of these incredible trails, all by himself. Chuck Kroger has since passed away, but has left these two amazing trails as well as the now legendary Telluride Via Ferrata as his legacy. An incredible gift from an incredible man.
Note: Deer Tail is yet another overlooked but incredible hike that offers stunning vistas and views of the San Juans.
Photo: Chuck's trail marker and handwork.
A Dwindling Trail
Once you reach the alpine basin below Ballard, the trail may seem to disappear. Look for rock cairns and stay climbers left of the large rock monolith on the right of the basin.
Photo: The rock monolith in the alpine basin below Ballard.
Ballard's North Ridge
After the long and arduous hall through Ballard's endless switchbacks, you will eventually gain the Northern ridge of Ballard. You are now above treeline and soon begin to reap the rewards of your climb. Views of the ski area and Gold Hill, Palmyra Peak, Deer Tail Basin, and the town of Telluride will sooth those aching legs and lungs. The summit of Ballard is close at hand. Take the highest trail that leads west below the summit to the couloir that will take you to the summit.
Photo 1: Sapphire with Palmyra Peak in the background.
Photo 2: the love of my life climbing the North Ridge with Telluride in the back drop.
The Summit Couloir
The trail will come across the west face of Ballard, and you will find a loose and fairly steep couloir that leads straight to the top. Take your time and watch your footing.
Photo: Looking up the summit couloir.
The Summit
Ballard is the smallest peak around La Junta basin, and the true summit is at the top of the couloir. Silver Lake sits below you, with killer views of Tomboy Road and Ingram Falls out to the east. Ballard even offers a great shot of the three fourteeners Mount Wilson, Wilson Peak, and El Diente. Follow your ascent route down after taking in those gorgeous San Juans.

No coats in the carseat so tell me what to buy!!

Comments (7)
Lands End Thermacheck 200 is what my son has been using. If it's really cold, I will put a big winter coat on top of the fleece when he is on the way to the car, then he stays warm in just the fleece in the car.
We use Columbia and North Face. Columbia is significantly cheaper. I was at Dick's Sporting Goods last weekend and they had a lot of them for under 25.00 ! :) North Face you are looking to pay at least 70
DD had a NorthFace fleece jacket this year and also a Columbia one that still fits from last year.
Plus, I warm up my car before we head out (I'm lucky and have a car starter).
and in the winter, I have blankets in the car that stay in the car, so I can put it over top of her until it's nice and warm in the truck, then I can take the blanket off so she doesn't get too hot.

Both my kids wear The North Face Perrito jackets. They are very car seat friendly. They are not fleece, but very thin synthetically insulated jackets. They compress down to nothing and I don't even have to adjust their harnesses when they wear them.

I'm reading a good book, the title of which I'll give you in just a minute. I want to share some intriguing passages from the book with you. But in doing so, I'm going to leave some words blank.

Snuggle Sac Sleeping bag

"Fab product, Great value for money.…"
This product gave me back my sanity. After a year of no sleep to find something my 2 yr old related to and wanted to snuggle into and wanted to stay in his own bed was wonderful. It was a lion Snuggle Sac and he took it to nursery, to my Mums and treated it like a comfort blanket. It worked really well and literally lasted for years.

"I recently purchased a snugglesac for my two year old…"
I recently purchased a snugglesac for my two year old to ease the transition from cot to bed. Whilst wowed by the gorgeous soft fleece, which I cannot fault, I am very disappointed with the product overall. It markets itself on being good for the active sleeper and the specific one I chose is called 'my first snugglesac'. However, the problems are that my son cannot put himself back in to the sac in the middle of the night and often ends up lying on top of it. Whereas with a duvet you could pull it from under him and carefully place on top, you cannot do this with the sac as you need to put his body back inside and then zip it up. Also, when he cried and dribbles the soft fleece becomes very wet and soggy as opposed to a duvet soaking it up more. The product is a wonderful idea and is probably ok for a 'good sleeper', but after a week of use it gets a big thumbs down - save your pennies!

Ooh these are lovely. My daughter has the blue spotty one which is about the softest thing I've ever touched - she takes it on sleepovers and will snuggle up on weekend mornings in front of the TV with it too. They're not cheap but they are really well made and washable - plus there are themed ones Thomas, Pirate, Lion etc if you'd prefer. Wish they made them in my size!

Details of Brahm's Symphony and the Ticket Luck value
A member of the "Three B's," a world class composer, and a musician who was considered as the most legitimate successor to Beethoven, Brahms was a German musician who excelled as a pianist and composer. Born in 1833, Johannes Brahms was introduced to music by his father. He started training from the age of seven and never looked back. During his career, he was greatly influenced by Beethoven and the influence is apparent in the similarities that are often noted between Beethoven's and Brahms's work.
While Brahms's genius can be found in numerous compositions such as Serenades, Organ Concertos and Chamber Compositions among others, it is his symphonies that have given him massive fame, and have allowed him to remain relevant, even today. Brahms's music is noted for its timelessness, its heavy indulgence and most of all, its aesthetic appeal. Brahms composed a total of four symphonies, and today, these four symphonies have become the epitome of the Romantic Movement in music. Brahms is part of the German musical school, which is also referred to as the Leipzig musical tradition. Other musicians such as Bach and Schumann are also part of the Leipzig school of classical music.
The first symphony opens with a flourish as it consequently climaxes to a sudden drop. The complete enchantment that the first movement in the symphony casts over the listeners rivets them throughout the piece as it builds to a crescendo again and again. Maintaining the rhythm of the symphony, and keeping the harmonic integrity of the symphony intact, Brahms uses his instruments as the perfect medium for inspiring emotions in his audience. The symphony is agitated throughout and the dramatic value that is incorporated in the composition gives the symphony an air of urgency, of passion and of an animation that very few musical compositions have.
Parallels are often drawn between this symphony and between Beethoven's orchestral compositions. It seems that Brahms has borrowed thematic influence from Beethoven. However, despite the similar movements, Brahms adds a unique touch to his work that is now applauded as nothing less than genius.
The second symphony opens slowly, but exudes a regal charm. Released a year after the first symphony, this compositional masterpiece is easy to grasp, beautiful in its movements and uniquely transcendent. Even those who are not well versed in the specific language of musical theory can sway along to this piece of exquisite music. Many have applauded Brahms on his use of the most complex of musical arrangements in producing a sound that is light, captivating and a joy for all.
The third symphony is perhaps the most underrated symphony of Brahms. The movements are organic and the rise and fall of the music is as natural as it could be. Brahms compositional mastery is evident in the piece as he takes the symphony from an edgy beginning to a calm and relaxed middle and then builds up to a climax in the end. He manages to change the key in the end without the transition harming the tranquility of the composition or upsetting its coherence as one symphony. The third symphony has an undeniable allure that gives it a magnificent feeling and more than critics, fans of good music have appreciated the overall aura of the symphony.
The fourth and final symphony of Brahms is a composition extraordinaire. The piece starts off mellow and largely relaxed. In an instant, a change of movement in the symphony creates a majestic uproar and the music becomes bold. It is to Brahms merit that he handles such a drastic change in such a fluent manner that the sudden climax of the music throughout the symphony becomes an innate part of the flow. No where during the symphony does the rise or falls seem forced or miscalculated.
Brahms is one of the most accomplished composers of all time. His self-criticism and his need to be perfect in his work made him produce some of the most unique yet pleasurable pieces of classical music. Hans von Bulow, who stands as one of the most accomplished conductors from the nineteenth century, stated that "the three greatest composers are Bach, Beethoven and Brahms. All the others are cretins." Brahms genius was celebrated in his life, and today, he lives on through his repertory as his work is still performed all over the world.

Hi, I think this would be a good idea but if you were to buy a skin it should show that skins picture on the bottom left of the screen where it shows the characters picture. Like if you were to get a kill it would show the skin portrait there instead of the classic skin. Anyone else think this is a good idea?

A former brothel and gaming parlor has been transformed into one of the most alluring venues on the Lower East Side—an intimate, sexy bar and dining room that leads to a lush outdoor garden lit with twinkly lights. But like so many good-looking things, this one doesn't quite live up to expectations. The menu at Tenement needs some home improvement. The kitchen tends to stick with safe snoozers like a mixed-green salad with avocado and grilled shrimp, or pan-roasted sea bass with bok choy and plain white rice. A duck breast entrée that sounded slightly more exciting than others failed to impress. Stick with the bar: Order a cocktail (or two) and enjoy the calm before heading out to some other neighborhood restaurant for a bite.
