BodyCartography Project's Olive Bieringa at the Bell Museum
Science meets art on Thursday for a unique installation at the Bell Museum led by choreographer Olive Bieringa of BodyCartography Project. Part of an artist-in-residence program at the museum, Bieringa has spent the last month talking to scientists and developing an installation called Proximity that explores social boundaries, personal space, and animal behavior.

Many Foodborne Illnesses Linked to Produce, Handling Problems
Currie, Donya, The Nation's Health
PRODUCE IS the source of nearly half of all foodborne illnesses in the United States, and leafy green vegetables are a frequent culprit, according to a recent study identifying the main sources of outbreaks.
The study, published in the March issue of Emerging Infectious Diseases, was based on a comprehensive set of estimates by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention using data from more than a decade of foodborne disease outbreaks.
Researchers also analyzed previously published estimates on how many illnesses could be attributed to each food category.
During 1998-2008, about 13,500 reported foodborne disease outbreaks in the United States caused nearly 272,000 illnesses, according to the study. Researchers analyzed about 4,600 outbreaks and about 120,000 associated illnesses. They found 23 percent of illnesses were associated with leafy vegetables, which was higher than any other type of food.
While the study found 46 percent of foodborne illnesses were linked to produce, poultry was responsible for the most deaths, at 19 percent. Most poultry-associated deaths were caused by listeria or salmonella, and a majority of produce-related illnesses were linked to noroviruses. The study used data from illnesses that could be attributed to each of 17 food categories, or commodities, such as dairy, eggs, beef, fish, fruits-nuts, leafy vegetables and root vegetables.
"To the extent that these estimates reflect the commodities causing all foodborne illness, they indicate that efforts are particularly needed to prevent contamination of produce and poultry," the study's authors wrote. "Methods to incorporate data from other sources are needed to improve attribution estimates for some commodities and agents."
The study also found that dairy products were the second most common food source of infections causing illnesses and death. While pasteurization eliminates pathogens, "improper pasteurization and incidents of contamination after pasteurization occur," the authors wrote. "In our dataset, norovirus outbreaks associated with cheese illustrate the role of contamination of dairy products after pasteurization by food handlers. …

Best Art Museum (2014)
Perez Art Museum Miami
Let's face it: Baselites are damn hard to impress. Each year, the jaded international art-world cognoscenti flock to the 305 for Art Basel, an aesthetic winter bacchanalia where the latest contemporary trends and talent compete for attention with the über-exclusive VIP list for over-the-top private soirees. But in December 2013, for once that wasn't the case. That's because everyone from locals to the visiting glitterati were all left agog by the new Pérez Art Museum Miami. When PAMM opened on Biscayne Bay with a raft of blockbuster exhibits, including a survey of Chinese star Ai Weiwei, it was the 21st-century museum's stunning building that left tongues wagging. Designed by award-winning Swiss architecture firm Herzog & de Meuron, the stunning cultural showcase was inspired by "Stiltsville," the tiny village of shacks rising from Biscayne Bay. The result is a bleeding-edge shrine to PAMM's growing collection that anchors the east end of the 29-acre Museum Park. The site will also be the home of the nearby Patricia and Phillip Frost Museum of Science, designed by Grimshaw Architects and scheduled to open in 2015. From the moment visitors enter PAMM — which boasts 200,000 square feet of space — they're left with the sensation they've stepped into a sculptural artwork. Outside, hanging gardens tower 60 feet overhead beside views of the water and Miami's skyline shimmering in the languid breeze. Destined to remain the Magic City's creative hub for years to come, the museum has already made an impact through its series PAMM Presents, taking place every third Thursday, when it delivers internationally acclaimed talent and performers for an eclectic range of dance music and experimental sounds on the bay.

Brenda Randolph (Africa Access Review)
The rainforest in Congo Republic (Brazzaville) is the setting for this exciting but stereotypical adventure tale. The O'Hara twins "twelve-year-old Grace and Marty " leave their Swiss boarding school, stow away on their uncle's plane and are dropped into the Congolese rainforest. While searching for a rare and mysterious cryptid, a dinosaur called MokTlT-mbembT, they experience close calls in the predictably dangerous Congo. In a sweeping statement, their Uncle Wolfe warns them, "The Congo is no place for kids. It's one of the most hostile environments on earth. The rivers and swamps are filled with crocodiles, venomous snakes, and biting insects. It's a hotbed of malaria, Ebola virus, and other deadly diseases" (86). Images of poverty are reinforced when the children visit a 'Liboko" village on the "Ubangi"River. There the men are clad in "threadbare shorts and T-shirts with more holes than cloth" (179). Young Marty reinforces images of political instability and incompetence when he says, "If the government finds us here we'll be arrested and put in jail. I guess they're having some kind of a revolution" (157). The author uses the non-specific and pejorative term "pygmy" to refer to the inhabitants of the rainforest. One of these individuals is given a name (Makalito) but frequently he is referred to simply as the "Pygmy." The author misinforms when he suggests that the "Pygmy" speaks a language called "Pygmy" (257). This novel recycles old stereotypes of the Congo as a white man's graveyard and fails to expose readers to the diversity and dynamism of this part of Central Africa. Not recommended. () Rating: N -- Not Recommended. 2005, Hyperion Books For Children, 348 pp., $15.99, . Ages 9 to 14.

Todd Morning (Booklist, Feb. 1, 2005 (Vol. 101, No. 11))
When twins Marty and Grace O'Hara discover that their adventurous parents have gone missing, they leave their Swiss boarding school and join their mysterious uncle, Travis Wolfe, on his island in Washington State. They soon learn that their uncle is one of the world's foremost authorities on cryptids (think Bigfoot and the Loch Ness Monster). Wolfe is scheduled to look for dinosaurs in the African jungle, and he plans to leave Marty and Grace in Europe before the expedition starts. Things go awry, however, when an accident plunges Marty and Grace into the middle of the Congolese jungle. Soon the henchmen of the evil Noah Blackwood are pursuing the twins. The action is nonstop in this well-paced jungle adventure, and Smith adds a deeper layer in scenes of Marty and Grace discovering truths about their complicated family relationships. Several loose ends suggest more cryptid-recovery expeditions to come. Category: Books for Middle Readers--Fiction. 2005, Hyperion, $15.99. Gr. 5-8.

Tim Davis (Children's Literature)
As this exciting adventure opens, Marty and Grace O Hara, 13-year-old twins in a private school in Switzerland, receive the terrible news that their parents are presumed to have died in a helicopter crash in the Amazon. Apparently orphaned, Marty and Grace are sent to Cryptos Island in Washington s Puget Sound to live with their uncle, Dr. Travis Wolfe. In short order, though, the cryptozoologist Wolfe--a scientist who seeks evidence of legendary wildlife, i.e. Sasquatch, the Loch Ness monster, and even dinosaurs surviving in the 21st century--and his new associate, Dr. Laurel Lee, must leave on an urgent trip. Wolfe and Lee have heard about a fertile dinosaur egg from the nest of the legendary mok l -mbemb in the Congo, so they must fly to Africa to recover the precious evidence, and, of course, Marty and Grace go too. In the fast-paced quest which follows, Marty and Grace are accidentally jettisoned from the airplane and drop by parachute into the deadly African jungle. Making matters worse, dangerous villains are looking for the precious egg and the young adventurers. The twins, however, are resourceful heroes, and the jungle and villains are no match for the O Hara team. In the end, though, the discoveries Marty and Grace make about themselves, their family, and the most persistent villain, Noah Blackwood, will challenge them far beyond their wildest expectations. Even the most reluctant readers should thoroughly enjoy this tale of science, fantasy, and adolescent resourcefulness. 2005, Hyperion Books, $15.99. Ages 10 to 16.

Kirkus (Kirkus Reviews, December 15, 2004 (Vol. 72, No. 24))
When Uncle Wolfe takes them on a dinosaur hunt, orphaned twins Grace and Marty find themselves in a B-movie with email. When the twins' explorer parents vanish in the Amazon (to be found in the next book?), mischief-maker Marty and genius scaredy-cat Grace go to live on Uncle Wolfe's private island. Wolfe hunts cryptids: mythical creatures such as Yetis, Kraken, and Chupacabras. Though he doesn't intend to bring the children on his dinosaur hunt in the Congo, they arrive anyway, after falling from his airplane into the darkest jungle, accompanied only by a teacup poodle, a chimpanzee named Bo, and a high-end Gizmo complete with videoconferencing. There the children must reunite with their uncle, find the mythic dinosaur MokFlF-mbembF, and avoid the minions of evil Dr. Blackwood. Luckily there are friendly Pygmies to help. And what is the deep, dark secret that has given Grace nightmares all her life-and what does it have to do with Dr. Blackwood? Enjoyably rollicking adventures are appropriately cheesy; the stereotypes, though equally fitting, are a bit much. 2005, Hyperion, 352p, $15.99. Category: Fiction.

Krista Hutley (The Bulletin of the Center for Children s Books, January 2005 (Vol. 58, No. 5))
After their photojournalist parents disappear, thirteen-year-old twins Marty and Grace leave boarding school to stay with their heretofore-unknown uncle Wolfe on his private island. Wolfe owns a lucrative electronics company, but this is only to finance his more pressing interests--finding and protecting "cryptids," a term for animals not proven scientifically to exist. Once the twins arrive, Wolfe finds he must make an emergency trip to the Congo, where Noah Blackwood, an old enemy whose fame hides his unethical exploitation of animals, has discovered the secret habitat. En route back to boarding school, Marty and Grace snag a parachuted ride down with the supply drop over the Congo; there, Grace realizes that everything is familiar, leading her to wonder if she's been there before, and if so, when? Smith layers action adventure and psychological drama as the characters converge in the Congo and discover secrets about themselves along the way. Marty and Grace are deliberately idealized children with prodigious talents, yet they are human enough that readers will allow these occasional forays into unlikelihood, since they further the plot. Their relationship has everything a brother/sister duo needs to succeed: their bickering and annoyance is tempered by love and affection, and their willingness to support each other, even when it turns out they are not twins, is believably sweet. Smith doesn't muddy the waters with nuanced adults, either; good guys and bad guys are straightforward and don't change sides, allowing readers to relax and enjoy the ride. The detailed, exotic locale and the novelty of hunting for scientifically unsubstantiated animals will be more than enough to snare young readers.

Kathleen Roseboom (The Lorgnette - Heart of Texas Reviews (Vol. 18, No. 1))
The O Hara twins are as different as night and day. Grace is quiet, studious, and has terrible nightmares. Marty is adventurous, daring, and full of pranks and fantastic ideas. When their parents are missing after a plane crash, their Uncle Wolfe sends for them, and they arrive on an island off the coast of Washington State and discover unique animals and unusual people with unusual skills. This book is adventure packed with non-stop action--granted some of it is a bit far-fetched and outrageous--but it is a mover and a shaker. It should keep the mind active, the legs moving, and the mind challenged...Cryptic Hunter? Cryptozoology? The study of animals that are believed to exist but cannot be proven to exist scientifically. The rarest animals on earth examples--Bigfoot, Loch Ness monster. Roland Smith has other books that are for reluctant readers, and this one is sure to reel in several and open the door to the discovery of imagination and basically becoming the character of Marty (or Grace) and finding themselves having green eggs and mamba for breakfast! Fiction, Highly Recommended. Grades 5-10. 2005, Hyperion Books, 348p., $15.99. Ages 10 to 16.

Michael Levy (VOYA, October 2004 (Vol. 27, No. 4))
This fast-moving adventure novel reads like something from the 1950s-positioned halfway between Tom Swift Jr. and a Heinlein juvenile book. The protagonists are twins who seem nothing alike. Marty is a smart aleck, a fine athlete, and a wonderful cook. Grace, a genius, is afraid of her own shadow and has disturbing, possibly psychic dreams. When their parents are lost in a plane wreck in the Amazon, the twins are taken out of their boarding school in Switzerland and shipped off to Cryptos Island in Puget Sound, the home of their mysterious uncle, Dr. Wolfe. He is a super-scientist who specializes in the study of cryptids, creatures that cannot be proven to exist, like the yeti or the Loch Ness monster. Soon Wolfe and his loyal team are on their way to the Congo, racing to find the last living Mok l -mbemb , a smaller cousin of the brontosaurus, which has been rumored to have survived in Africa for centuries. When their chief competitor, the fabulously wealthy and definitely evil scientist and television personality, Dr. Blackwood, sends a team of thugs to capture the dinosaur for his own nefarious purposes, things turn desperate. Grace and Marty manage to fall out of an airplane and find themselves lost in the heart of the Congo with dangerous animals all around and Blackwood's thugs closing in. The unlikely plot is all great fun, although Mok l -mbemb , when it finally appears, is something of a disappointment. All in all it is an exciting but not particularly challenging read. VOYA CODES: 3Q 4P M J (Readable without serious defects; Broad general YA appeal; Middle School, defined as grades 6 to 8; Junior High, defined as grades 7 to 9). 2004, Hyperion, 348p., $15.99.

NGC1333 reloadedPosted by Greg Parker in Hyperstar and SXVF-M25C

CCDInspector results of Hyperstar III collimationPosted by Greg Parker in Equipment, Hyperstar and SXVF-M25C
A few posts below I gave a procedure on collimating your imaging camera to a Hyperstar III. On reflection I thought that this could be considered as so much "hot air" without results to prove the procedure actually works. So a few nights ago I fired up the Hyperstar III and ran through the collimation procedure with a nicely flattened M25C OSC CCD. I flattened the M25C chip using the procedure described on the Starlight Xpress web site. The results of around 45-minutes of collimation adjustments are given below, and the results speak for themselves
A larger view of the results can be seen here:

The California nebula – work in progressPosted by Greg Parker in Hyperstar and SXVF-M25C
On the evening of the 19th October I got a couple of clear hours before it clouded over. Enough time to set up the Hyperstar and get an hour (4 x 15-minute subs) on the California nebula. I had forgotten just how fast the Hyperstar is – a total of 1-hour's exposure time only, but that is equal to five hours on a Sky 90 at f#4.5 I suppose. Still, the Hyperstar is FAST

Collimating the Hyperstar IIIPosted by Greg Parker in Hyperstar and SXVF-M25C
It is possible to get perfect stars right across the diagonal of an APS-size chip such as the Starlight Xpress M25C or M26C – but only if your Hyperstar imaging system is in very good collimation. Getting good collimation is not a trivial exercise, but once you have it set up then it only becomes a matter of very small tweaks if any mirror movement requires re-collimation.
The very first thing you must do is make sure that your imaging chip is perfectly normal to the optical axis. For the Starlight Xpress cameras mentioned above there are adjustment screws to move the camera chip with respect to the front plate which connects to your OTA. Starlight give a method here http://www.sxccd.com/maintenance_info/Aligning_CCD.pdf for getting the chip flat using a laser pen. I have found that this method works extremely well and you can get precise chip flatness very quickly and easily once you have gone through the process a couple of times. The only change I made to the Starlight setup was that I work in a vertical plane with the laser pen pointing upwards from the ground as using this geometry you don't have the camera mounted sideways against gravity. Being vertically mounted makes it a lot easier to maintain the camera flat against whatever rotation holder you use.
With the camera chip perfectly flat to the front plate, fix the camera to the Hyperstar and get a good focus. I recommend the electric MicroFocuser and MicroTouch software for all your focusing. You can do it manually, but it takes much longer using that route. Get a good focus and take a 20-second image.
Unless you are extremely lucky you will find that stars towards the centre of the image look pretty good, but stars out towards the edge are "tailed" like comets – and this is the collimation needing adjusting. You will need the program CCDInspector to get really good collimation, and to get a numerical feedback that your collimation is good – but the initial "rough" collimation is done by eye by referring to the image on the monitor.
Pick any one of the Hyperstar collimation adjusters and move it either in or out a touch, where a touch is no more than a quarter of a turn. Retake the image and note the result on the outermost stars. It will soon become obvious which adjustments "push the tail" of the stars up into the main star until you end up with a decent looking round star. With the collimation adjustments made so that you can see you have decent round stars in all 4 corners, you are good to go, and you will get extremely good results from your Hyperstar – but you can fine tweak things a little better than your eye can pick up just looking at the monitor – and this is where CCDInspector comes in.
Take a 20-second image of a star field preferably without galaxies or nebulae in the field as these can "throw" the CCDInspector values out. Put CCDInspector into arc seconds mode rather than giving "pixels" output, as this gives you more accuracy in the next part of the setup. You will see values for the tilt in the X and Y directions, and the aim now is to get the smallest value you can for these. The next adjustments of the collimation screws on the Hyperstar are TINY, no big movements or you will throw away all your hard work so far. You now need to make tiny adjustments of the collimation screws on the Hyperstar and note their effect on the tilt X and Y values as you adjust them. You will need to write these figures down as relying on memory alone, especially if you are working out in the freezing cold, simply doesn't work. You will also need to re-focus after each adjustment and this is why it is a very good idea to have computer-controlled focusing, otherwise this step will simply take far too long. Make adjustments to the collimation screws to get the smallest values you can for the tilt in X and Y in CCDInspector, and don't forget to refocus after each adjustment. You will see that a natural by-product of small X and Y tilt values is a small value for the collimation and for the field curvature. Proceed iteratively until you get the smallest X and Y values possible.
Finally, when you have managed to get the Hyperstar collimated as best you can, it is a good idea to then re-run all your V-curves for FocusMax so that they apply to your new, nicely collimated system.
That's all there is to it – Happy Imaging J

The Hyperstar III is back on-linePosted by Greg Parker in Hyperstar and SXVF-M25C
I have completed the initial experiments with the Canon 200mm lens piggy-backed on the C11, so yesterday I removed the kludge on the back of the C11 and re-instated the Hyperstar III – just in time for all the winter goodies.
The 200mm lens will go on the top plate of the mini-WASP with the other 200mm lens. One lens will have an M26C attached, the other will use the Canon 5D MkII – all bases covered.
Cloud last night meant I couldn't focus train and collimate the Hyperstar III – but from the images I did download I could see there wasn't too much sorting out to do.
So final steps before we're up and running again, focus train using FocusMax and collimate the Hyperstar using CCDInspector.
Then image the goodies

Better luck second time aroundPosted by Greg Parker in Hyperstar and SXVF-M25C
Managed to get 15 x 4-minute subs using the Hyperstar III on the new supernova in M82 last night. Although the sky looked crystal clear, and was Moonless as a bonus, the seeing was terrible. Never mind – I do have at least a decent record of the event
Jan 24 2014
Well at least it's there innit!Posted by Greg Parker in Hyperstar and SXVF-M25C
So what's the excuse for such a grubby image then? Half the sky (towards the East) was clear at 6:00 p.m. but half the sky running north to south and covering the whole of the West was black and overcast. M82 was in the clear bit Fired up the Hyperstar, did the 2 star align, autofocused on the second star and slewed to M82 – all going well so far. Took a single 30-second sub to check the framing (that's the image above) – great – M82 is dead centre. Now just need to get a guide star, get autoguiding, and get a load of subs. Autoguide setup playing up – yep, completely clouded out in those 10-15 minutes So all I got was this 30-second setting up sub. But at least you can see the damn thing.

Definitive Cygnus Wall from the NFOPosted by Greg Parker in Hyperstar and SXVF-M25C
As it has been non-stop rain for days on end now, I have resorted to taking a look at old data.
Just put together all the datasets I could find of the Cygnus Wall region taken with the Hyperstar III and the M25C one shot colour camera.
You can see the result here:

Wide-field image of the Cocoon nebula and Barnard 168Posted by Greg Parker in Canon 200mm prime lens, Hyperstar and SXVF-M25C
The Canon 200mm prime lens and the Canon 5D MkII DSLR were put to good use a few days back grabbing a massive (10 x 6.8 degree) wide-field around the Cocoon nebula in Cygnus. Using ISO 400 and f#4.5 with an IDAS filter I captured 21 x 4-minute subs with the DSLR and guided using the SX guide camera on a small refractor – all piggy-backed on the C11 which is now groaning under all the added weight. Further Hyperstar III data of the Cocoon region alone was added to the DSLR template by Noel Carboni who created the final composite using Photoshop and his Astronomy Action Tools. The Hyperstar III data set was taken a couple of years ago and comprises a 3-frame mosaic with each frame being around 3-4 hours total exposure time using 10-minute sub-exposures.
This combination of using the DSLR to create the wide-field star-field template, and then filling in the nebulosity and faint stuff with either the Hyperstar III or the mini-WASP looks like a winning combination. The only problem is that the images only look impressive when printed out BIG – all the detail gets lost in A4 size or smaller.

The Canadian Rockies region
Summer activities are seemingly endless in the Banff / Canmore area...
Golfing, whitewater rafting, fishing, horseback riding, wildlife-watching, hiking, heli-hiking, ATV expeditions, caving, rock climbing, mountain-biking, and more...
One thing that sets the Canadian Rockies apart from other mountain destinations is how little effort it takes to reach spectacular scenery.
Truly stunning vistas that may require hours of hiking in other parks are on the highway, accessible during SCENIC DRIVES, right from the window of your car or tour bus.
You can even drive up to Columbia Glacier, the largest non-polar ice-cap in the world, hop on a snocoach and try out a GLACIAL WALK!
Other effortless ways of enjoying the Canadian Rockies include taking a SIGHTSEEING GONDOLA in Banff and Lake Louise, dining in comfort at the summit restaurants and taking short, but spectacular interpretive hikes.
Or pamper yourself further with a FLIGHTSEEING helicopter ride over the breathtaking landscape!
In and around Canmore and Banff National Park, hikers will find thousands of miles of maintained HIKING trails that offer astounding vistas at every turn.
For a touch of style in the wilderness, you may want to try HELI-HIKING. A helicopter drops you off at the top of your chosen remote peak, and picks you up at the bottom, after you take a leisurely hike down!
Canmore is home to the Canmore Nordic Center, host of the World Cup bike racing events. The Nordic Center features an extensive network of cross-country ski trails which are transformed into MOUNTAIN BIKING trails every summer.
With legal off-roading, and an abundance of old mining double tracks and classic wooded singletracks for enthusiasts, it's no wonder that Bicycling magazine named the Canmore area as one of "The 50 Best Trips on Our Planet."
Mountain Bike Action magazine also hailed Canmore as one of the "Best Rides North of the Border." And with 43 miles of paved trails for family-friendly rides, even kids can enjoy Canmore's spectacular scenery on two wheels.
Canmore is also a famed center for WHITEWATER RAFTING, and many of the outfitters are based down the road from Birch Haven.
Families will enjoy gentle FLOAT TRIPS down the scenic Bow River while thrill-seekers will get their kicks on the white water rapids of the Kananaskis, Kootenay and Kicking Horse rivers. For even more kicks, try HELI-RAFTING at remote river locations.
At Lake Minnewanka, Banff National Park's largest lake, take a scenic narrated cruise aboard glass-enclosed boats through the Minnewanka Valley to Devil's Gap.
You can also go MOTOR-BOATING at Lake Minnewanka and try your hand at FISHING. Indeed, fly and spin fishermen from around the world descend on the lakes and streams of the Banff National Park.
Get outfitted at a local tackle store or hire a guide to take you to little-known insider fishing hotspots.
Moraine Lake, near Lake Louise, is a great spot to go CANOEING. Take in the spactacular snowcapped peaks of the Valley of Ten Peaks as you glide across the turquouise waters with the family.
For a taste of the Wild West, hop on a wagon picnic excursion or saddle up a horse.
From meandering rides along the Bow River to steep trails thousands of feet above Lake Louise, there are HORSEBACK ADVENTURES for everyone.
And then there is GOLFING. With 6 world-class golf courses and 135 spectacular holes nearby, Canmore is a golfer's mecca.
Within a few minutes' drive of Birch Haven are three courses: Stewart Creek, Silvertip, and Canmore Golf & Curling Club.
The world-famous Banff Springs Hotel course is just 15 mins away, while two Robert Trent Jones courses are a half hour away at Kananaskis.
While the area is reknowned for its outdoor activities, there is no shortage of indoor cultural pursuits.
Banff is host to dozens of GALLERIES AND MUSEUMS -- ranging from natural and native American history to cultural heritage exhibits.
PERFORMING ARTS enthusiasts will be glad to know that from May through August, the Banff Arts Festival presents internationally-reknowned guest performers in a rich summer-long celebration of music, opera, dance and drama.
Winter is romantic and simply magical. Ice-skate, snowshoe, snowmobile, dog-sled, ice-fish, ski and more in postcard-perfect surroundings!
For starters, this area is a reknowned for WORLDCLASS SKIING AND SNOWBOARDING on dry champagne powder.
Banff/Lake Louise was recently voted "Best Ski Resort of the World" by over 25,000 readers polled by the respected London Daily Telegraph!
Other accolades include Good Ski Magazine's "#1 Ski resort in North America" and Thomas Cook's "Favorite Destination for British Skiers."
Five downhill ski areas are within easy reach -- Banff's Norquay, Sunshine and Nakiska are within a 20-minute drive.
With over 30 feet of natural snow every year, Sunshine has one of the longest seasons in North America (mid November to mid May) and offers supreme skiing above the timber line.
Norquay, meanwhile, boasts the "Best Fall Line Cruising," according to Ski Canada magazine.
The ski resorts of Fortress and Lake Louise are 45 minutes away and feature breathtaking drives that are as highly recommended as the destination.
For the ultimate in CROSS-COUNTRY SKIING, go no farther than the Canmore Nordic Center. Just 5 minutes from Birch Haven, the Center was designed for the Calgary Olympics and offers 40 miles of smooth cross-country and biathlon trails.
Beginner skiers can explore the gentle touring trails of the national park while experts will enjoy the high-alpine glacier traverses rivaling the "haute-routes" of the European Alps.
There is also the thrill of HELI-SKIING; the helicopter drops you off at a remote mountain and picks you up at the base after the superlative high of cutting your own run down an untouched mountain!
Skiing is unsurpassed here but is far from the only activity available.
Follow the tracks of wolves and learn the hunting patterns of owls in SNOWSHOE EXPEDITIONS.
Or take guided ICE WALKS through Johnston and Grotto Canyons. Experience the unforgettable world of suspended waterfalls and massive blue ice pillars, frozen in time.
You can even go on a guided ICE-FISHING expedition in the toasty warmth of heated huts!
Perfect for families and couples are SLEIGH RIDES, either on the Bow River or across the frozen expanse of Lake Louise.
Alternatively, let a team of huskies whisk you through breathtaking scenery on a DOGSLEDDING adventure.
Adventure seekers will no doubt want to try SNOWMOBILING through the backroads and wilderness areas of the Canadian Rockies.
And if you are trained for ICE-CLIMBING, get out your gear and challenge yourself on frozen waterfalls...
And for the ultimate in winter sightseeing, try FLIGHTSEEING. Soar over the stunning landscapes of the Continental Divide in a helicopter!
And should you ever want to spend time indoors, there is always a myriad of PERFORMING AND VISUAL ARTS -- museums, galleries, concerts and theatrical performances, including the touring international shows of the Playbill Series.
Indoors or out, winter is wondrous in this part of the world!
For an unexpected adventure, try WILDERNESS CAVING at the Grotto Mountain right here in Canmore. Be forewarned that this is demanding and fairly treacherous.
This is no "tourist-cave" with pretty colored lights, rubberized anti-slip floors and "Exit This Way" signs. But if you are looking for a thrilling activity, this is off-the-beaten-track and unforgettable. The caverns stay a constant 45 degrees Fahrenheit year-round.
At the end of a full day of activities indoors or out, consider a long soak in the therapeutic 104 degree waters of the BANFF HOT SPRINGS, right under Mt. Rundle.
Better yet, simply relax in BIRCH HAVEN'S ROOFTOP HOT-TUB.
After all, nothing beats a soothing massage from steaming aqua jets, crisp winter air and 360 degree panoramic views, all from the convenience of your very own building!
Banff is Canada's top vacation destination and a mecca for a dizzying array of outdoor activities. Enjoy world-class skiing, golfing, horseback riding, whitewater rafting, hiking, ATV adventures, snowmobiling, mountain biking, dogsleding and more!
Ideally situated in downtown Canmore, our luxury loft is 3 minutes from the Banff National Park gates and just over an hour from the Calgary International Airport.
Just 2 blocks from Main Street, our downtown Canmore location means that everything is at your doorstep or just a short walk away. From trendy cafes, restaurants and supermarkets, to health food, sporting goods and video stores, you will not find a more convenient location.
Birch Haven is blessed with easy access to four national parks and several provincial parks. The national parks marked with * are, in fact, honored as UNESCO World Heritage sites:
24 km / 15 miles to Banff townsite (approx 15 mins)
80 km / 50 miles to Lake Louise and the start of the Icefields Parkway (approx 45 minutes)
60 km / 35 miles to Kootenay National Park* entrance (approx 45 mins)
80 km / 50 miles to Yoho National Park* entrance (approx 1hr 15 mins)
200 km / 125 miles to Jasper National Park* entrance (approx 2 hrs)
26 km / 16 miles to Kananaskis Country (approx 0.5 hrs)

This review is from: GIGABYTE Model GC-WB300D Exclusive Bluetooth 4.0/WiFi Expansion Card
Pros: Had tons of issues with multiple other interface cards (D link, TP link). Trying to set up a 5 GHz network, and the D Link card for some reason had DISMAL performance on 5GHz (1.5 Mbps on a 25 Mbps connection: brutal). And NO windows 7 support.
Popped this baby in, worked instantly. The range provided by the two antennae is unreal. I can see about 10 new networks I didn't know about with this, and the 5 GHz signal is strong and clean. Running at 25 Mbps as it should. Don't bother with subpar trash, get this board and you'll get free bluetooth while you're at it. Can't go wrong.
Cons: None - I've never seen a Gigabyte product fail.READ FULL REVIEW

Pros: Bought this to build out a high-end quad core system for video editing, photo editing and gaming. It's fast as hell and incredibly stable. Have had ZERO compatibility or stability issues in the year I've owned it. Have run windows 7 and 8 on it. Very happy with Gigabyte. This is my second MoBo from them and I'll be back for my next one.
Cons: None - outperforms expectations
Other Thoughts: Not my first gigabyte motherboard and won't be my last.READ FULL REVIEW

Sonia Gandhi tells Pakistan's Hina Rabbani Khar to be 'civil'
- Congress Chintan Shivir: Workers want larger role for Rahul Gandhi in party, says Digvijay Singh
- Jairam Ramesh says 'Congress can't come back to power', chary Salman Khurshid stays mum
- At Congress Chintan Shivir, Sonia Gandhi takes partymen to task over 'opportunities lost', speaks up for middle-class

With Pakistan FM using extremely uncivil language while describing India's 'billions' and then letting lose her shocking and haughty 'war-mongering' remark, Congress president Sonia Gandhi, at the party's Chintan Shivir said 'civilised behaviour' is must.
With beheading of an Indian soldier clearly weighing on her mind, Gandhi said India's dialogue with immediate neighbours must be based on accepted principles of civilised behaviour, in an apparent reference to Pakistan.
"Better and closer relations with our immediate neighbours will not only make for regional peace - they will also have a positive impact on some of our own border states.
"However, let us be clear. Our dialogue must be based on accepted principles of civilised behaviour. We will never compromise on our vigil and preparedness to deal with terrorism and threats on our borders," she said in her address.
Her remarks came as External Affairs Minister Salman Khurshid, speaking on the sidelines of the Congress meet, noted the "positive indications" from Pakistani side and said India will give an "appropriate" response if Islamabad makes a formal proposal for talks between the foreign ministers.
He was asked by reporters on the offer of Pakistani Foreign Minister Hina Rabbani Khar for discussions following tension at Line of Control (LoC) in the wake of beheading of Indian soldier by Pakistani troops on January 8.
The two-day Chintan Shivir of the Congress is being attended by top brass of the party including the Prime Minister, and the issue of Pakistan is expected to come up during discussions scheduled on the topic of India and the world.
Gandhi said that India's foreign policy has always had a vision of the country occupying its rightful place and exercising its unique influence in world affairs.
"That place and that influence will be significantly enhanced by successfully overcoming poverty, improving our secular values, strengthening our democratic institutions and engaging constructively with the international community," she said.

So cute and sexy at the same time... Wow, amazing!!
I wish we could convince Hasbro to start a voting poll for weather or not Fluttershy should forever stay as Flutterbat and become an anti hero.
A cool idea but I don't think they would ever go for that.
No, there is a good reason why they won't accept it
Flutterbat looks like a kitty.

we never will be convinced of such false accusations
So you say. Yet not convinced.
Dude, i'm not!! I don't go around doing nasty stuff like that, its not my thing.
I never said that's what made you sexy now did I?
So, still though I just don't like it when people say that... my friends are online, and ever since they saw that picture, they have been drawing nasty pictures of me and calling nasty names.... <

When Hibari has a fight with a strong opponent he's smiling too but it is a bit different kind of smile...
but then again it would be dangerous if they were taken away. do you realize what would happen? he would go BERSERK! He fight and, possibly, kill anyone who got in his way and would do anything to get to whoever took them all away. It would be safer if he just got his Hibirds....for the children's sake.
Awwwh How cute!
So cute<3 and awesome!!!

Re: 2007 Trans problems
Ok, i went down there and talked to him. I told him I did some checking as to the separate trans cooler and showed him the diagram showing as much. He apologized for jumping the gun at the end of the day yesterday by telling me he thought it was the radiator leaking in to the trans by assuming it cooled via radiator. He seemed a bit embarrassed and his apology seemed genuine to me. But i saw the fluid, there is water in it. Also, my saying "trans pak" was wrong, its the transmission solenoid pak. Now if he wanted to lie to me and pour a little water in the pan to trick me? Why bother, just say the solenoid pak was shot. So its still a mystery as to how water got in there. Was it in a flood? Not while we've owned it.
Also, i forgot to ask about the bulletin he mentioned.
I'll update as i have more info.

Re: 2007 Trans problems
5L40-E is the 5-speed, made in France, also found in BMWs. As Cone said twice, this is not the transmission the OP has. He has the 6 speed.... 6L50-E. PJ
Re: 2007 Trans problems
There are a number of things that you can point to on the SRX and say it's problematic and back it up with posts that have been made on this forum. You will be hard pressed to do that with the 5L40e, let alone the 6L50 the OP has. BMW had problems with the 5L40e because they made a mistake and put it behind an engine that produced more torque than the transmission was designed to handle.
Re: 2007 Trans problems
Ok, here's the follow up.
The best guess, after scrutinizing the bottom of the car, it was involved in a flood and it was never disclosed to us. So, while we got a "good deal" when we bought it, we paid in the long run. We live in WI so surface rust is nothing out of the ordinary, but now i see only the lower pulleys have rust on them.

Re: 2007 Trans problems
Nearly 4500 dollars for repairs! that plus a down payment and your trade in and you could have a new car! I hope you get 50,000 or more miles. I do not even want to think it would cost in Europe! Well at least you have a guarantee, read the fine print since its a limited warranty!
Re: 2007 Trans problems
The good news is that AAMCO stands behind their warranties from what I have heard. The bad news is you would have saved a bundle at the Cadillac dealer. Automatic transmission assembly (remanufactured) is $2340 MSRP. Of course, you would probably have to add the customary diagnostic charge, transmission fluid and a couple of hours labor to R&R. The only other option would have been an independent shop but unless you know of a really good one, that could very well have turned out to be the worst choice.

A fourth day of Broncos practice at training camp delivered a cache of significant players unable to participate. Not out at this morning's practice were Jarvis Moss, Brandon Marshall, Brian Dawkins, Brandon Stokley, Wesley Woodyard and Correll Buckhalter.
Moss, the Broncos' first-round draft pick in 2007, is contemplating his future. He was excused by coach Josh McDaniels to take a few days to think about whether he wants to continue playing. Broncos defensive lineman Marcus Thomas said Sunday that Moss had told him he would return today. The Broncos have another practice this afternoon.
McDaniels was hesitant to discuss Moss' situation and if or when he will return.
"Personal situation and we've granted Jarvis permission to take the time to do what he needed to do," McDaniels said this morning.
Marshall limped off the field during the Sunday morning practice. He did not practice Sunday afternoon or this morning. McDaniels was asked to address the absences of Dawkins, Stokley, Woodyard and Buckhalter after the morning workout.
"Coaching decision," McDaniels said of the four veterans. "Some of those guys will be out here this afternoon, and that's how it will be going forward."
Meanwhile, reserve linebacker Nick Greisen became the second player to need serious medical attention. He went down on the last rep in a linebacker-vs-running back drill. Trainers tended to his left leg, and Greisen was pointing to and rubbing a spot on his left knee before he was driven off the field on a cart.
McDaniels said he didn't have an update on unsigned first-round draft picks Robert Ayers and Knowshon Moreno.
"We're hopeful and eager to get them in here very shortly," McDaniels said.
