Of all the cultural goldmines around New York City, the Hudson River area may be the richest in history. The Fort Montgomery State Historic Site in Orange County is a tribute to the Revolutionary War fortress built in 1776 by American soldiers to guard the entrance to the Hudson Highlands. On October 6, 1777, a troop of British soldiers, outnumbering the Continental forces three to one, destroyed the fort along with the Americans' neighboring stronghold, Fort Clinton. Today, the site is a National Historic Landmark offering visitors a glimpse into the battle that raged there more than 200 years ago.
An Independence Day celebration around the first weekend of July includes costumed interpreters and demonstrations, artillery and musket firings, and period music. Activities continue in the fall with Twin Forts Day on the first Saturday in October, a popular event that centers around a reenactment of the fort's climactic 1777 battle. Near the end of October, visitors can tour the grounds at night and revel in dramatic reenactments of the fort's dark history by lantern light.
Several easy hiking trails stem from the grounds: Take the Twin Forts Trail toward the nearby Bear Mountain Trailside Museums and Zoo (the former site of Fort Clinton) or meander down the Popolopen Trail toward Torne Mountain.
A stroll around the grounds, overlooking the Hudson, features a self-guided tour of the fort's remains; a quick trip around could take about 20 minutes, while a more leisurely pace will afford you about an hour among the remnants.
On late spring and summer weekends, the fort hosts living history demonstrations complete with costumed interpreters and musket and cannon firings (featuring the fort's pride and joy, a 32-pound cannon named George).
Battle re-enactments are a family favorite.
Step inside the Visitors' Center for a museum full of period artifacts and weapons, large-scale models of the fort and the attack, highly detailed mannequins frozen in poses of battle, and an action-packed 15-minute movie that depicts the construction of the fort, the attack, and the aftermath.
Address: 690 Route 9W, Fort MontgomeryDistance: About an hour drive from the George Washington Bridge. Approximately 30 miles (40-minute drive) from White Plains, New YorkHours: The museum and grounds are open Wednesday through Sunday, 9am-5pm Price: FREEFor more info: 845-446-2134 or www.palisadesparksconservancy.org/historic/18

Peak Program meter and AM Transmitter
1- Peak Program Meter 2- AM Transmitter Tamir Suliman Milos Dorolosovaki May 2009 ECE 294 Peak Program Meter What's Peak Program Meter • A Peak Program Monitor (PPM), sometimes referred to as a Peak Reading Meter (PRM), is an audio metering device except its capable of reading accurate signal peak level compared to the regular volume meter . Peak Program Meter • Volume unit VU Meters show you the average level of the signal- so they're great for recording to analog tape or for mastering purposes where you want to know the overall general level of the signal. • VU Meters are bad at telling you the peak level of the signal. This paper focuses on the design and the implementation of a peak program meter, which features a data-acquisition system, using a C6713 DSP-based starter kit (DSK). Peak Program Meter • PPM improves on the VU meter's performance problems by integrating the signal for small time . this integration process will then only detects peaks that are long enough to be heard by typical human listener. Peak Program Meter • The primary function of this program is to detect and provide an LED indication /warning whenever an output value is approaching the range limit of the DAC. • These condition are checked every Ts =1/Fs, a dwell time is required to maintain the ON status of each of LEDs without this dwell time the LED would cycle on/off too rapidly to be visible. The output value s above which an LED turns ON were chosen to be . Peak Program Meter • These turn on levels are shown the Figure below , where the sinusoidal signal is at the maximum amplitude for the DAC. Peak Program Meter PPM Implementations • The output value s above which an LED turns ON were chosen to be • +/- (28000,3200,32767) • These turn on levels are shown the Figure below , where the sinusoidal signal is at the maximum amplitude for the DAC. • Reset value is 4800 which turns the LED off after "RESET" number of samples • ScaleFactor = 1.0 PPM-Movie WHY PPM • An alternative to VU meters Peak Program Meters have fast rise times (30 times faster than VU meters) • PPM has much slower fallback or decay time. • PPM responds to peak levels rather than average levels. This makes them especially useful in situations where distortion or overload is a significant concern, as in digital applications. Because other meters, (i.e. VU meters) respond more slowly, giving an average level reading, they are not as useful for indicating maximum levels or peaks. • Popular and tested in Europe, PPMs are found in mechanical, LED, and/or plasma forms in a variety of equipment types. Questions Thank you AM Transmitter AM Transmitter • One of the simplest modulation schemes is Amplitude Modulation, which is normally just abbreviated as AM. • For several decades commercial AM radio broadcasts is used on many consumer radios in most of the countries around the world. • AM provides an easily understood modulation scheme that can be thought as the starting point for many of today's more complicated modulation schemes. AM Transmitter • A.M works by varying the strength of the transmitted signal in relation to the information being sent. For example, changes in the signal strength can be used to reflect the sounds to be reproduced by a speaker, or to specify the light intensity of television pixels. FORMS of AM Modulation • Conventional amplitude modulation (AM) (also known as double sideband (DSB) with carrier) • Single sideband (SSB) • Double sideband suppressed carrier (DSB-SC). AM-DSB • In the basic form Amplitude modulation produces a signal with power concentrated at the carrier frequency and in two adjacent sidebands. • Each sideband is equal in bandwidth to that of the modulating signal and is a mirror image of the other. Single Side Band • Single-sideband modulation (SSB) is a refinement of amplitude modulation that more efficiently uses electrical power and bandwidth. • Amplitude modulation produces a modulated output signal that has twice the bandwidth of the original baseband signal. • Single-sideband modulation avoids this bandwidth doubling, and the power wasted on a carrier. Producing Single Side Band • Filtering, leaving only either the upper sideband (USB) or less commonly the lower sideband (LSB). • Most often, the carrier is reduced or removed entirely (suppressed), being referred to in full as single sideband suppressed carrier (SSBSC). Single Side Band • Hartley modulator • Two versions of the original signal are generated, mutually 90° out of phase. • Each one of these signals is then mixed with carrier waves that are also 90° out of phase with each other. • By either adding or subtracting the resulting signals, a lower or upper sideband signal results.

There's a nasty smell in the political air – and it's coming from the Tories
What kind of party is this?
Jon Cruddas - Labour MP, deep thinker, and man of integrity - was approached at a Fabian society conference by "students" who turned out to be Conservative party researchers. They recorded his thoughts on the Labour leadership and on the party's prospects. The transcripts were then passed to the Telegraph and the BBC. Sir Alistair Graham, former chairman of the committee on standards in public life, condemned the entrapment: "That is really dirty tricks stuff...very nasty stuff." Indeed.
All political parties behave nefariously. Power is a terrible corrupter. But the most dishonourable, sleazy politicians today are the Tories. Heartfelt apologies to those good, kind and ethical Conservatives who feel tarnished by my sweeping statement. They too must surely feel shame about some of what has come to pass.
Where to start? Spoilt for choice. Andy Coulson went to prison for phone hacking. Cameron brought him into government and said it was to give him a second chance - a priestly act of forgiveness for doing bad stuff, which incidentally had not been proven at the time. It was a bad lie. We all know the ex-editor of News of the World was sought out because he was master of the dark arts. After Coulson was convicted and sentenced, the PM brushed off his connivance as if it was a speck of dust on his bespoke suit. He was busy, had social gatherings of high importance to attend to.
Such as the Tory summer fundraising ball and dinner. The full guest list is still kept from the public eye, but we know they had Russian millionaires - including Putin's judo partner – as well as Slovenian and Belarus magnates. There was the Arab rich alongside home-grown hedge fund gamblers and other businessmen such as lap-dance club owner Peter Stringfellow. There were eurosceptic bosses, Bullingdon fellas, MPs, peers and the political blogger Guido Fawkes, who has always claimed to hate all politicians. Since 2001, donations to the Tory party from these circles amount to a declared £205,951,396. After this ball nearly £5 million was added to the chest. As Will Hutton says, Disraeli and Churchill must be spinning in their graves as their descendants turn conservatism into a rootless, "multinational, libertarian sect".
Loyalists claims this is simply active, participatory democracy. Bunkum. Those handing over piles want to be assured of the lowest taxes, and minimal, ineffective regulations. They are buying binding promises and are prepared to pay big money for them. Some are rather keen on power-sharing too - perhaps getting on to key quangos and into positions which give them control in public service sectors.
David Ross, co-founder of Carphone warehouse, who used to be a tax exile, is apparently being lined up by Michael Gove to become the chair of Ofsted. The respected Labour peer Baroness Sally Morgan was pushed out even though Gove admitted she was very good at the job. But, you see, Ross, is a Tory and gives hundreds of thousands of pounds to his beloved party. He also runs a string of academies, so can award those schools top ratings. What about a clash of interests? Who gives a damn about that? Moral anxieties are for weaklings, not this pushy party.
I honestly don't see that much difference between corrupt practices at Fifa and these shady arrangements between politicians and their rich mates.
There's more. We never get to see the shy, veiled backers or get full disclosure on the sly schemes which allow donations to be made to the Tories without scrutiny. The Bureau of Investigative Journalism alleges that the United and Cecil Club in Berkshire funnels cash from unnamed supporters. Several other private clubs, it is believed, do the same. We know how much the trade unions give the Labour party but are not allowed to know how much the Tories get from their tribesmen. Toffs don't have to be open, don't explain. Plebs must do both.
By yesterday another scandal had opened up. In the week there had been speculation about child abuse and the political elite, questions asked by MPs , in particular Simon Danczuk, who recently exposed the paedophilic activities of Liberal MP, Cyril Smith. (The LibDems and Labour have, over recent years, brought shame on themselves. But they cannot match the Tory record). Leon Brittan when Home Secretary was allegedly given a dossier which was not followed up. His responses when questioned have been muddled. It was Tory MP Geoffrey Dickens who handed over the explosive material about a network of Establishment abusers. But guess what? Key files have disappeared. Danczuk claims that a senior Tory asked him to back off and leave matters be. But on the Andrew Marr show yesterday, Norman Tebbit said that there may well have been "unconscious" political cover-up over child abuse in the 1980s. Yes, just like "unconscious" dodgy fundraising and nepotism.
The nasty, dirty party just got nastier and dirtier. It is a disgrace to our nation.

The installation "The Treachery of Sanctuary" created by digital artist Chris Milk insinuates the meaning of life, death and rebirth. It is beautiful, deeply spiritual. Elsewhere virtual butterflies fly around, more real than real. Some visuals and sounds seem to come from another planet. The talented individuals featured in this show are surely superhuman. God must be worried. This leap in human history is altering the outside environment, the body's physiology as well as psychological contours and borders.
Our desires can now be exactly measured, monitored and manipulated by advertisers, product-makers and internet giants. They can make us crave things we don't want. We rightly worry about state surveillance and brainwashing by the powerful, but knew little about the new dangers. Last week Facebook's CEO Sheryl Sandberg was forced to apologise for clandestine psychological tests on over 700,000 users, the aim of which could only have been to find ways to unduly influence those who use the site.

New Book of Poems Reveal an Incisive Portrait of Today's Times
After years of federal service, Anthony Pino returned to his home state of California only to find the landscape overrun by industrial, defense and residential development and a society obsessed with violence. His reaction to these stark conditions manifested in three poems, "Plum Valley - Joaquin and Me," "Apricot," and "Red Cadillac." These three along with other stories and writings are featured in Pino's new book, "A Hidden River".
Using the limitless realm of the imagination and the power of poetry and prose, Pino paints a unique and affecting portrait of humanity and human civilization as it teeters on The Edge of either growth or devastation. Some of Pino's works, including "The Amazing Death of J. J. Finkelstein" and "An Ode to My Mexican Pot.", explore society's violent disregard for human civility and the continuing presence of violence against other human societies. Others such as "The War Bird" and "Mars 2003" offer a prescient look into an anticipated war and the exploitative nature of battle.
Incisive, prophetic and thoroughly riveting, "A Hidden River" captures the sweep of the times and depicts one man's fears, hopes and revelations in the most exquisite and compelling forms of literature.

Here's an interesting, tho not surprising, article on the "value" of a liberal-arts education and the threats it faces:
What do you think is/are the purpose(s) of a college education? Just to get a better job? How's that working out? (Being a bit sarcastic here.) Is/should there be a larger purpose for education?
Discuss. :-)

Excerpts from La fille Mal Gardée
La fille Mal Gardée,which translates as 'The Wayward Daughter', is one of the oldest works in the current day ballet repertory. The excerpts from Act I are taken from the version adapted by Sir Frederick Ashton for the Royal Ballet in 1960.
I behave as what you expect. Who am I? Can I find me? Can I find myself in you? ...I merely want to be myself!
Excerpts from Paquita
Paquita is a two-act ballet originally choreographed by Joseph Mazilier and reworked by Marius Petipa. Initially staged as a narrative ballet, the plot revolves around the young Gypsy girl, Paquita, who falls in love with a French Nobleman, Lucien.
The excerpt presented is taken from the "Wedding Scene" of Paquita and Lucien.
The approximate duration is 75 minutes including an interval.

Other Treatments for Allergic Rhinitis
A common treatment for allergic rhinitis is allergy shots (immunotherapy).
ImmunotherapyImmunotherapy is often recommended for people who have developed severe side effects from medication, or whose allergy symptoms do not respond well to medication. It may also be helpful for people who have frequent, unavoidable exposure to allergens. Studies have shown that immunotherapy is effective in over 85% of people who receive the treatment consistently.The purpose of immunotherapy is to decrease or eliminate your response to a particular allergen or group of allergens. This is done by injecting a very tiny extract of the allergen into the skin, and increasing the dose very gradually at regular intervals until the immune response to that allergen is decreased or eliminated. When you are exposed to an allergen in this way, your body begins to make some protective antibodies. Since the allergen dose starts out very small, you do not experience the usual symptoms despite exposure to the allergen.Sublingual immunotherapy may also be used. This type of treatment involves putting the allergic substances under the tongue, rather than using allergy shots.How the Process WorksOnce your injections are at maintenance level, the frequency of injections will be reduced to every 2-4 weeks. Your doctor may monitor your immune response periodically with skin testing. Treatment will continue for 3-5 years until your symptoms have been significantly reduced or eliminated.Once your injections are at maintenance level, the frequency of injections will be reduced to every 2-4 weeks. Your doctor will monitor your symptoms and may do skin testing. Treatment will continue for 3-5 years until your allergic response has been significantly reduced or eliminated.The Long-termImmunotherapy is a treatment program that will take 3-5 years to complete. If you are considering this form of treatment, you will need to make a commitment to receive these injections on a regular schedule. If you miss one or more treatments, there is a risk that your allergen immunity will be compromised, and you may need to begin the process again.Side EffectsOn occasion, some people experience a localized reaction to the shot, which may consist of itching, redness, or a small hive at the injection site. These symptoms usually disappear within 1-2 hours.In very rare instances, a systemic reaction may occur. This might produce symptoms—such as sneezing; itching of the eyes, throat, hands, or feet; or asthma. This type of reaction usually occurs within twenty minutes of the shot, so your doctor will have you wait at least 20 minutes after receiving an injection to monitor for a reaction.Who Should Not Have Immunotherapy Immunotherapy is not recommended for people who are taking beta-blocker medications. These drugs are usually prescribed for people who have high blood pressure or heart rhythm problems. You may also be advised not to undergo immunotherapy if you have a weakened immune system, uncontrolled asthma , severe lung disease, severe reactions to allergy skin testing, or if you are currently wheezing. Researchers are still studying if it is safe for pregnant women to start allergy shots. However, it is safe for pregnant women who are already on maintenance dosage to continue their allergy shots.When to Contact Your DoctorNotify your doctor right away if you have:
- Changes in your allergy reaction
- Adverse reactions to the injection
- Changes in medications prescribed by another doctor
Sublingual ImmunotherapySublingual immunotherapy is another treatment that is similar to allergy shots. With sublingual therapy, small amounts of allergens are placed under the tongue. This treatment is more popular in Europe. While it has shown to reduce symptoms in some studies, more research is needed.

Volvo 940 Problem Report
Volvo 940 "No start" Due to Failed Fuel Pump Relay
(16 reports)
The fuel pump relay may fail resulting in a "no start" condition, the engine will crank over but will not start and run. Checking for proper fuel pressure would be the first step in diagnosing this concern.
ENGINE TURNS OVER BUT NO FUEL GOES THROUGH - Visitor
2 people like this
I had the problem of the car turning over but no start. I changed the fuel filter, the car ran for a day and did the same thing. So I went and bought a in tank fuel pump and sock. The tank was clean as can be, no dirt or anything in the tank. Everything went well except my hoses kept breaking. So I replaced almost all of the hoses. The car now starts but if I step on the gas it dies. I checked the relay and it is fine. I checked the fuses they are good. I'm going to replace the other fuel filter tomorrow hoping that will help. It does idle but when I step on the gas as soon as it gets up to where the turbo should kick in it pops through the turbo and dies. If anyone has any suggestion it would help greatly.

Review for KING DAVID DANCE COMPANY, Charlotte, NC, USA
To whom it may concern:
I am a minister at a United Methodist Church in Mineral Springs, North Carolina. On several occasions, we have had the King David Dance Company share programs with us for our Family Ministry events. These are intergenerational events, involving the entire church family. Response to the programs has been overwhelming. Not only are they very professionally done, they are extremely meaningful and moving. I am so glad to have been able to offer our church this kind of family worship experience.

The latest "oh noes, Melky can't win the batting title!" column
Sep 6, 2012, 11:00 AM EDT
The argument that Melky Cabrera should not be allowed to win the 2012 batting title because of his drug suspension was dumb a couple of weeks ago and it's dumb again today. From Morosi:
The batting race, though, is one instance in which MLB must act — and it doesn't need to be that complicated.
MLB should add an additional criterion for the batting and ERA titles: Players suspended for a PED offense must be automatically disqualified, because their violations gave them an unfair statistical advantage, on top of the obvious cheating … MLB can't allow players to benefit statistically by stopping the clock on their season through PED use. That's like a high-school student receiving an "A" on a test he missed because he was suspended for fighting in the cafeteria.
Setting aside the fact that many, many hitters have won batting titles despite having the advantage of a shorter season, Morosi falls far short of making a compelling case here. Sure, he talks about all the ways baseball could deal with the Melky problem — it would be easy to disqualify him, I'll grant that — but he never makes a case as to why baseball, or any of us, should care if Melky Caberea wins the batting title in the first place.
As Matthew noted a couple of weeks ago, the batting title isn't an an award. It is not some endorsement by the league or an honor bestowed on a worthy competitor. It is a statistical measure and nothing more. It is a function of math, and it only matters to people in direct proportion to the weight they place in it.
And it's certainly not significant like an MVP award. Quick: name two of the past ten NL batting champions. I bet you can't. Because, sadly, winning a batting title did not place Freddy Sanchez into some Hall of Immortals atop a great mountain someplace. It just happened and why in the hell should any of us who are not related to Mr. Sanchez care?
Same goes for Melky. If he wins the batting title, it will be remembered only because of its dubiousness. The world will not end. It will not impact the economy or the schools and it will not send any child off into a life of crime. It would affect nothing other than the level of indignation people who like to be indignant about such things feel.
As I said last month, the idea of stripping people of awards and attempting top scrub history is nothing more than emotion-driven post-hoc righteous reactionary retribution. If you want to change the rule going forward and make a guy ineligible to be the batting champ or home run champ or whatever after a suspension, fine, do it. That's how laws and rules work: prospectively. But suddenly saying "Melky can't be the batting champ!" is a silly emotional balm for people who should know better than to put that much damn weight into a statistical contest.
- willclarkgameface - Sep 6, 2012 at 10:39 PM
For the love of God, please let this happen. PLEASE LET MELKY WIN.
I so badly want to see Selig eat crow on this one, probably slowly just like he does everything else.
What is going to set him off to make him actually give a shit about doing REAL TESTING?
Testing in the game right now is a joke and he knows it. We all know it.
So proclaim with me people, "MEL-KEY! MEL-KEY! MEL-KEY!" Root for this dude on the sidelines and will him to victory much like 1990 NL Batting Champion Willie McGee. Let's do this!
- jaydoubleyou22 - Sep 8, 2012 at 1:10 PM
You may say that the batting title is purely a statistical measure and not an award, but that's not exactly true. If it is just math with no significance, why does one need to have a minimum number of ABs to "qualify" ??
This article, however, does qualify as bad (and recycled too). It's like one those really bad Final Destination movies that just keep getting made.
Please, Craig.. We've had enough. Take your soap-box somewhere else.

Many problems exist with this team- I'm not sure Scotty Bowman could mold them into a winner.
I believe it is mainly due to the type of people we draft or obtain in trade. With the exception of Wis they are soft. There are no Benn's, Iginla's, Getzlaff's, etc. We appear to have tried to emulate the Red Wings but have been completely inept at drafting/signing free agents/and trading. For years we picked the next guy from the Hockey News rankings of prospects, bypassing people like Anze Kopitar among many others.(and don''t even tallk about 2003) One of my to do's is to go back through the drafts and see how many other teams have drafted as poorly as we have. I know we made some changes in scouting but as I recall we just promoted people from within. So my first step in fixing the team is get a completely new scouting team. Second step is go find a goalie who can steal a game now and then. Has Mase stolen one since his rookie year? Third pray we can trade the long list of players Howson has signed to too long contracts. 4th, chose an alternative team to root for in addition to the BJ's.

Woman and dog injured by black bear near Chico, California

At about 11:30 p.m. Monday a woman who lives in Magalia heard a noise in her yard and her dog began barking. She let the dog out, heard sounds of a fight and stepped out herself.
According to California Department of Fish and Wildlife Capt. Patrick Foy, she said a bear immediately came out from beneath a blue tarp, clawed her on the shoulder and bit her before running off.
The woman was taken to the hospital and treated for non-life-threatening wounds and given rabies treatment. The dog, a 9-year-old golden retriever, was taken to a veterinarian, and is in tough shape, according to Foy. "Sounds like he fought hardily," Foy said of the dog.
Fish and Wildlife are deploying a trap to the area to try and capture the offending bear. Foy said it should be in place by the end of the day.
Gigantic, near record-size hailstones pummel northern Maryland

Nicka Pohl shared with Capital Weather Gang the photo of a softball-size, spiked hailstone measuring approximately 4 inches in diameter, which fell near Timonium. Hail larger than golf balls fell throughout the Hunt Valley, Cockeysville, and Timonium areas in northern Baltimore County.
The hail dented cars all over the area and smashed back windows, Pohl said.
Christopher Strong, the warning coordination meteorologist at the National Weather Service forecast office serving Washington and Baltimore area, said Maryland records show there have been only two instances of hail larger than the 4-inch stone Pohl collected. Hail measuring 4.5 inches in diameter was observed in LaPlata in 2002 when a large, violent F4 tornado swept through the area. And a stone measuring 4.5 inches was reported in Baltimore in 1970.
Northern Lights making 'rare' appearance in the skies above Cornwall, UK

This stunning time-lapse footage shows the beautiful sight of the Northern Lights appearing in the skies over Cornwall.
A photographer taking night time beach shots could not believe his eyes as he spotted the natural phenomenon.
Chris Small was on the beach at Bude around 1.30am on Tuesday when the eerie ribbons of purple light appeared in the star strewn sky above.
The Northern Lights are frequently sighted in the Arctic Circle and Scandinavia and sometimes even Scotland but very rarely seen as far south as Cornwall.
And Mr Small was delighted.
"I've never seen them before although I've always wanted to," he said.

Greg Dunn, senior forester, said three bulldozers plowed about two miles of fire lines in the Nocatee area to contain the 8-acre fire.
Storms soaked parts of Northeast Florida Sunday night, although it was a mixed bag for fire officials. While the rain was helpful, lightning bolts compounded the problem by igniting more fires.
Of the 50 fires burning 720 acres in Baker, Clay, Duval, Nassau, Putnam and St. Johns counties, 37 of them have been started by lightning, according to the Forest Service.
Huge sinkhole opens up on golf course in Lenexa, Kansas

Mon, 22 Jun 2015 13:54 UTC
The sinkhole is on the left side of the fairway on the 13th hole at Canyon Farms Golf Course. Despite the change in the landscape, the course and the hole itself remain open.
"I believe it's par 4," said golfer Jerry Nelson. "But they have set the tee box way up front about 120 yards out."
Shortening the hole takes the sinkhole out of play.
A statement from the owners said a portion of the course is built over a nonoperating limestone mine. The statement said the majority of the mine is considered stable, according to various geotechnical studies.
Nelson and his partner said they took a good look at the sinkhole as they played the course.

Most of those affected are residents from the cantons of Sarapiquí in Heredia, Matina, Siquirres and Pococí in Limón, as well as Grecia and San Carlos in Alajuela. A total of 92 communities are reported to be affected to some degree by the heavy rains, according to the report.
CNE officials reported that the floods have affected five roads, blocking passage to at least 24 communities. Six bridges currently are closed, and several communities do not have access to drinking water because two aqueducts failed over the weekend.
Officials from the National Roadway Council and the Public Works and Transport Ministry on Monday afternoon reported that passage on Route 32, the main highway connecting San José with the province of Limón, is closed at the Blanco River bridge at kilometer 58.
Basking shark caught near Australia for the first time in 85 years

James Owen and his crew accidentally caught the 6.3-metre basking shark in their trawler at Portland, west of Warrnambool, in Victoria on Sunday but instead of selling the sought-after Chinese delicacy, they decided to donate the rare three-tonne male fish to science.
Only smaller than the whale shark, the mammoth fish has an unusual pink/purple hue to its skin and a huge flat nose.
The last recording of this species being captured was in the 1930s by a skipper at Lakes Entrance in eastern Victoria.
Pakistan heat wave kills hundreds: Victims 'dying on the streets'

Temperatures have exceeded 110 degrees in recent days, and thousands of people have been left to face the heat without electricity amid widespread power outages.
At Karachi's largest hospital, more than 150 people have been admitted for heatstroke since Monday, according to Ali Nawazish, the emergency room registrar at Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Center.
"Some patients have come to us with their families, some have been found by ambulances, and some families have come here looking for their loved ones who they fear are dead or affected," Nawazish said. "It's chaos."
Ramzan Chippa, who runs a volunteer ambulance service with a fleet of 300, told NBC News that all his vehicles are committed and that most of their relief activity is taking bodies to morgues.
"Most of the bodies we are recovering are people dying on the streets. They're just dropping dead," said Chippa. "Graveyards have filled up."
The army has joined the relief effort, setting up heatstroke relief camps in Karachi and five other cities in Sindh province. But relief systems are stretched across the city, and small, angry skirmishes have erupted in protest.
A deputy commissioner in the Korangi suburb of Karachi admitted that public relief services are stretched to their limits.
"People are screaming at us on our helpline to get help them, and when we do, they fight to get on the ambulance," he said.
More opposition parties, including the Karachi-based Muttahida Qaumi movement, are blaming the federal government for the crisis, which they say has been compounded by massive power cuts all across Sindh province.
Dildar Shah lives in the Karachi suburb on Malir and has lost two neighbors to the extreme conditions. "This is like the Day of Judgment," he said. "It seems all of us will die in this heat together."
Fish-killing virus sweeps Europe

The disease is also sometimes called koi sleepy disease. It is an infectious disease of fish, where they gravitate to the bottom of a pond or a river and display little movement.
Physiologically, the eyes of the fish become sunken, the skin undergoes flaking and the gills become swollen.If the swelling of the gills progresses then the fish dies through lack of oxygen.
The fish affected are mainly carp and koi. Carp is a general term for oily, freshwater fish including the silver carp, common carp and black carp.
Koi are a specific type of ornamental carp, which come in a variety of colors including white, black, red, yellow, blue, and cream.
The type of virus and how it reacts is still a mystery to virologists. It is thought that the infectious virus is related to the small-pox family (although it is not hazardous to humans).
