Money can't buy you love, but 100 bucks will buy you a better set of headphones than we would have thought possible before we strapped Sol Republic's Tracks to our noggin.
The Tracks feature a very unconventional design in which the ear cups slide up and down—or even completely off—a spring-plastic headband with a thick but short cushion at the top of its arc. The ear cups are large—nearly 1.5 inches thick—but generously padded. The design seems rugged enough, but it's not very portable (even if you dismantle it, remove the cable, and stash the components inside your computer bag).
We generally prefer circumaural designs that fit around our ears, as opposed to phones such as these, which rest on them. Circumaural phones are more comfortable to wear during long listening sessions, especially if you wear earrings. They're also more effective at both isolating you from outside noise, and preventing the music you're listening to from leaking into the environment, which might annoy people around you. Bowers & Wilkins managed to avoid both these problems with their exceptional P5 on-ear headphones (you can read our review
), but those phones are triple the price of the Tracks.
The ear cups on Sol Republic's Tracks headphones slide up and down a spring-plastic headband.
After extensive testing, the Tracks proved to be more comfortable to wear than we had expected, and leakage was less of an issue than we'd anticipated. But the rubber material wrapped around the headphone cable made an irritating noise whenever it rubbed against our shirt collar (which was every time we'd turn our head). This problem is compounded by the fact that there are two cables, one for each ear cup. On the bright side, for Apple device users at least, the two cables come together in an inline three-button remote control with buttons for volume, pause/play, track forward/back, and (on the iPhone) accept/reject incoming call.
Turning our attention to the Tracks' performance, allow us to emphasize what we said at the beginning: These headphones sound much better than we expected them to for the price. We've been using the
Accidental Powercut
series of albums, published by Bowers & Wilkins' Society of Sound subscription music service, to evaluate headphones because these live dummy-head recordings were engineered specifically for headphone listening. First up was
Sound of Rum
's "Rumba," from
Accidental Powercut 2
. The Tracks did an excellent job of rendering rapper Kate Tempest's rapid-fire rhymes perfectly distinct. When we turned our ears to "Ant House," by the instrumental group
Speakers Corner Quartet
, the unusual combination of flute, cello, contrabass, and drums exposed the Tracks' limited ability to produce crisp highs, especially the drummer's rim shots and delicate cymbal work.
Listening to tracks in which individual instruments aren't so exposed, ranging from "If This is Goodbye," from the Mark Knopfler, Emmylou Harris collaboration
All the Roadrunning
, to "Aïr-Tombouctou," from Afro-rock-band
's second album,
, gave us an opportunity to evaluate the Tracks' bass performance. They're just a tiny bit flabby on this score, but the flaw is exposed only in A/B comparisons with more expensive phones, such as the aforementioned P5s.
Sol Republic delivers a solid pair of on-ear phones; we haven't heard anything better in this price range—or even slightly above it.
Tracks headbands are available in three colors: Red, black, or white.
The plastic headband provides a snug, but not uncomfortable, fit.
The glossy finish shows fingerprints, but it's not as bad on this score as some headphones we've tested lately; namely, the Soul by Ludacris.

Ascites is a condition in which fluid collects in spaces within your abdomen. If severe, ascites may be painful. The problem may keep you from moving around comfortably. Ascites can set the stage for an infection in your abdomen. Fluid may also move into your chest and surround your lungs. This makes it hard to breathe.
The most common cause of ascites is cirrhosis of the liver. Drinking too much alcohol is the most common cause of cirrhosis of the liver.
Different types of cancer can also cause this condition. Ascites caused by cancer most often occur with advanced or recurrent cancer of the ovary, bladder, colon, breast, pancreas, or lung, and with lymphomas.
These are symptoms of ascites:
Your health care provider will do a physical exam and ask about your symptoms. You may also have tests such as:
A number of steps may help ease your ascites. Your health care provider may tell you to:
Ascites can make eating, drinking, and moving around difficult. It can also make it hard to breathe. Ascites can lead to abdominal infections, which may cause kidney failure. It can also cause umbilical or inguinal hernias.
Certain steps to help you avoid cirrhosis of the liver and cancer can prevent ascites. These include:
Be sure to follow your health care provider's advice for lowering your salt intake. You'll need to do this even if you're taking diuretic drugs to reduce fluid in your body. Also, weigh yourself daily and call your health care provider if you gain too much weight.

After the Geneva deal, was Iran's nuclear programme worth all that pain?
I'm back from Geneva after covering the marathon Iran nuclear talks, which turned into a bit of a marathon for us journalists as well. Now that the match is over, let me offer a few rather disjointed thoughts.
First, the stars of the show were Mohammad Javad Zarif, the Iranian foreign minister, and, believe it or not, Baroness Ashton, the EU's foreign policy chief. When Zarif addressed a press conference at 4.30am on Sunday, he was relieved, optimistic and engaging. He was also strikingly even-handed. In the past, I've listened to his predecessors fulminating about how Iran's "enemies" are to blame for everything.
Zarif, by contrast, was careful to observe that responsibility for the confrontation over the nuclear programme was shared. The deal would "address an issue that had taken all of us a long time to create," he said drily, before adding: "We need to start moving in the direction of restoring confidence – a direction we have managed to move against." Zarif conducted the entire press conference in English, something which our Iranian fellow journalists accepted with good grace.
When John Kerry, the US secretary of state, arrived on the podium straight after Zarif, the contrast was very obvious. It would be unfair to compare Kerry with the old-style Iranian foreign ministers, but he was bombastic and ungenerous, blaming Iran for everything. I should add that Kerry praised Zarif, saying that the deal would not have happened without the new pragmatism of the Iranian government. The secretary of state was fluent and persuasive. But there was none of Zarif's wry humour or generosity.
• Restrictions on Bulgarian immigrants don't work and don't matter
• The Advertising Standards Authority treats bloggers like crooks
• Our daughters can become whatever they want
And Ashton? At her moment of triumph, she avoided the press. In the past, some journalists have heaped scorn upon her, so she seems to hate the lot of us. But have no doubt: Ashton was a prime mover behind this deal. She was the chosen representative of the six countries in the "P5 plus 1" (America, Britain, France, Russia, China plus Germany). That meant she spent more time negotiating with Zarif than anyone else.
When Ashton wasn't dealing with him, she was briefing Kerry and the other foreign ministers. At the end, the cameras recorded the unusual spectacle of seven foreign ministers engaged in what you might call a group hug, after which all but one lined up to kiss Ashton on both cheeks. The non-kisser was, of course, Zarif, who is bound by Islamic tradition. Instead, he raised his clasped hands in a gesture of thanks and beamed his approval to Ashton.
For a few hours, the most important role in world diplomacy fell into Ashton's lap. Judging by the acclaim she received from her colleagues, she did not let it drop. This was her moment.
After the diplomatic ceremony, where does this deal leave the Iranian nuclear programme.? The short answer is: in a total mess. Zarif may be a shrewd and charming man, but I can't think of a precedent for a country being prepared to suffer total isolation, crushing sanctions and the risk of war for the sake of being able to produce, well, a few tons of low-enriched uranium plus a great deal of oxide, whatever that is.
If this deal sticks, then all the monumental sacrifice of the last decade will have yielded Iran nothing but the right to produce material for which it has no practical use.
Won't the low-enriched uranium be used to fuel nuclear power stations? Not exactly. Iran's sole functioning power station, a place called Bushehr, runs on uranium imported from Russia. I'm no expert, but I understand that nuclear reactors are fussy about the uranium they are willing to use – and Bushehr cannot run on the stuff that Iran is producing.
So what will they do with it? True, Iran says that it wants to build lots of new nuclear power stations. But Bushehr has been under construction for 38 years and the place is still not fully operational. Even Britain builds nuclear power plants faster than Iran. If all of Iran's grand plans for 10 or a dozen nuclear power stations come to fruition – a generous assumption – it will still be decades, or generations, until they will need the enriched uranium which has been produced at such immense sacrifice. Never has one country endured so much for so little.
Ah yes, you will say, but surely their goal all along was to get the ability to build a nuclear weapon. All this stuff about fuelling nuclear power stations was always a lie. Fair enough – I agree. The strongest evidence for the proposition that Iran's real aim was a military capability was always the fact that they were prepared to pay any price – and bear any burden – to produce material for which they would have no civilian use for 30, 40 or 50 years.
So let's accept that the nuclear programme always was about getting an option on a bomb. But assuming they keep this agreement, how on earth would they accomplish that now? The core of a nuclear weapon is uranium enriched to 90 per cent purity. Under this deal, they won't be able to produce anything above 5 per cent – and inspectors from the International Atomic Energy Agency will pay daily visits to check up on their two enrichment plants.
Won't Iran have secret facilities, undiscovered by the inspectors, where enrichment to weapons-grade could take place without anyone knowing? Perhaps the declared nuclear programme is just a place where Iran can master the essential technology. The actual work of producing a bomb would be done in some covert enrichment plant. Then Iran could safely allow all sorts of restraints on its declared facilities, knowing that its parallel network of clandestine installations could still deliver the goods.
You can never rule this scenario out, but it still looks implausible to me. True, Iran has form when it comes to building covert nuclear facilities. Both of the known enrichment plants – Natanz and Fordow – were originally constructed in secret. But Iran also has form when it comes to being found out: Natanz and Fordow were discovered by Western intelligence agencies and announced to the world in 2002 and 2009 respectively.
Iran, mightily embarrassed, had to open them to international inspection. To be caught in the act of building a secret enrichment plant once might be regarded as a misfortune. To be caught twice begins to look like carelessness.
I suppose it's possible that Iran has somehow pulled if off and built a covert plant in the desert – or downtown Tehran – without anyone noticing, but it must be pretty unlikely. They've tried this trick twice and fallen flat on their faces both times. Why would they succeed with their third attempt?
In truth, Iran's nuclear programme was always a bit of Keystone Cops operation. Now, it's a total mess. Today, Iran is the proud owner of two enrichment plants making stuff that no one has any use for, and a half-built plutonium reactor at a place called Arak, which won't become operational if this deal sticks. For these gains, Iran's economy was wrecked and the lives of its people blighted. If I were an Iranian voter, I would ask: "why on earth did we go through all that?"

Catnip Is Good!
posted 6 years ago
I love catnip because it keeps my cat Snickers busy. When you hide the catnip for your cats it is so hilariouse to watch cats smell for them and then punce at everything. Cats are a one of a kind animal and to give them catnip it a big treat, because not only is it fun to play with but it smells very good. Catnip is a very well thought product.
Pros: It keeps crazy cats busy when all they want to do is cuddle and you havew more important stuff to do.
Cons: Somtimes it can be dangerous for the cats if they open the toy and get the nip, kittens could choke on it easly.

Here is yet, another toy, Kittles would not let me remove from the package before he started sniffing and tugging. He loves bells and catnip...What cat doesn't?
There is also dangling yarn from the opposite end of the bell...SO, it is all around fun.
He had a blast. This is definitely going to be one of his favorites!
Pros: Catnip and bells-Two of his favorites

Chuquicamata is the one name mine of Cobre to open sky and of an old mining camping. Both are located to 16 km to the north of Calama, in II Region of Antofagasta, Chile . Considered one of greatest of the world, in his type and it is the major in copper production of the Country. Chuquicamata is administered by state Company, Codelco . The mine owns an elliptical form, with a surface of about 8.000 ms ² and about 1,250 ms of depth. initiated the copper production in 1915 and until 2007 owned a camping or mining town, destined to lodge to the workers and its families.
In 1882 settled the first industrial task in the sector. Company Guggenheim Bros, of the United States, produced the first fine copper bar 18 of May of 1915, which it followed a period during which company receives successive names like: Chile Copper Co. and Chilex Exploration Co.
Thousands of miners arrived in search of opportunities when the first massive copper extractions began. The company property of the brothers Guggenheim acquired the rights of the old society and red-baptize the company/signature like " Chile Exploration Company".
In March of 1923 Anaconda acquired Chile Copper in 77 million dollars, the greater transaction well-known in Wall s$street until that moment . The 51 percent from Chile Copper to 35 dollars was sold the action. The capitalization of Chile Copper was of 5 million 400 thousand actions to a nominal value of 25 dollars by action. Sothward, the star of the empire Anaconda, had determined its course. In autumn of 1928 the market of copper rose high and continued the negotiations with the Guggenheim brothers. The actions of Anaconda were in stop and seemed a good moment to acquire the rest of the actions of Chile Copper Company. Finally in January of 1929 and after weeks of discussion, announced a base of conversion for the acquisition of 2 million 200 thousand remaining actions of Chile Copper Company to 73/100 of an action of Anaconda by one of Chile. This conversion was decided with Daniel Guggenheim, whereas other members of the family tried a 80% conversion. In as much, the actions of Anaconda were to around 150 dollars. Immediately rights of subscription were offered to the shareholders to 55 dollars by the new emission of Anaconda. Finally the family of Guggenheim accepted the conversion and the supply was formulated in official form 23 of January of 1929 . For it 73 thousand three actions of Chile for their conversion, granting to Anaconda were given to two million the 98.41 percent of the property.
30 of June of 1940 this one had increased to 98.50 and, soon it arrived at the 99. Thus it concluded the giant transaction.
In 1971 promulgated a constitutional reform by means of which nationalized the great mining of copper in Chile, which meant the total property of this mine on the part of the Chilean State. At the moment of the world and the main ones in metallic mining belongs to Codelco Chile one of the one hundred majors Companies. The mine is characterized to contain copper to earth flower, reason why it is operated open-cast, in an extension of similar elliptical form to an amphitheater of 4,000 ms of length, 1,900 ms of width and 950 ms of depth. Daily t is extracted approximately 500,000 of the material, of which 180,000 t are of mineral with a law approximately of 1% of copper. The transport of this material is made essentially in trucks of 360 extraction of 330 and capacity t.
The mining complex of divisón North Codelco consists of three open-cast mines : The South mine, smallest, Mine Radomiro Tomic and the Chuquicamata Mine, greatest, with 4.6 km in length, 3 km in width and 980 M of depth approximately.
There are indications of mining extractions in which today it is the sector the northwest of the mineral. Peculiarly, the processing of the mineral took place to several kilometers of Chuquicamata, in the shores of the rivers Salty and Great. The historians deduce that the atacameños chose this place for the smelting of the metal by their proximity to Way of the Inca, commercial route where it was possible to compromise made products. Another peculiar detail, is that this old town could temper some copper pieces, that is to say, harden the metal to prologar its life utility, technical stranger until now. He counts the history that Diego de Almagro to its return to Cuzco in 1536 obtained from the furnaces of Camac Mayu (Rio Grande), copper horseshoes for his horses.
The archaeological rest, locate the first copper operations and other minerals in the Chilean north, around the 500 before Christ.
As far as the interpretation of these voices quechuas, Francisco Solano, author of the "Geographic Dictionary of Chile", define the compound word as "lance" or "measurement of lance" lasts. For this interpretation, the writer was based on peculiar copper adornments that the primitive inhabitants of the zone used.
According to Eulogio Gutiérrez, the term comes from the tribe of robust mountain dwellers met like Chucos, who inhabited the north of Calama before the Spanish conquest. Investigations during second half of the last century, gave account that this culture never existed and that only was product of a fertile mind, supported in the discovery of a body momificado in 1899, to the interior of a resentment.
The rest, correspond a. to an indigenous miner catched by a landslide the 800, approximately. Its body, could be conserved thanks to a natural leaching process, that acted like momificador agent.
The historian loíno, Héctor Pumarino Grove, affirms that the dismissed ones of the War of the Pacific changed their arms by tools. Rail end received that name because there all the branches ended that finished in end, simulating shoots with an arrow. This one was located to the southwest of the camping. The railroad settled due to the dangers to transport the metal in mule. The last destiny of the convoys was a handful of gaming houses and house of remolienda. From the station towards the north they were the houses, that as they move away of the railroad were more and more miserable. Both towns, continued growing until the arrival of the Americans and the construction of Chuquicamata. Rail end was condemned by the company, because it meant a danger for his workers who constantly escaped to drink there, apart from which in the place the promiscuity proliferated and the delinquency the workers did not return in days to their workings and many were died by inescrupulous cazafortunas that went up to around the zone. Little by little one went away depopulating and one went depositing a cake of debris on his houses, until in the middle of the third decade disappeared completely.
Placilla lasted major, because their owners never wanted to sell their possessions, in such circumstances continued operating the cavern, whereas I boast of Chuquicamata grew around to his.
Decree 1854, promulgated the 29 of April of 1905 by the government of the president Germa'n Riesco, authorized to Braden Copper Company, company of the North American engineer William Braden, so that it operated in Chilean territory. The geographic difficulties and the necessity to expand the facilities of the mine forced, it to sell the property, that happened to be administered by Kennecott Corporation .
In 1910, Albert C. Burrage in society with the Duncan Fox and company., obtained permission to set off the Chuquicamata mine. The 3 of April of 1911, Burrage was authorized by the Chilean government to establish the metallurgical center in Chuquicamata, where without permission the Guggenheim brothers (financistas of New York) had carried out workings of prospections. This gave rise to an intense competition to obtain the rights of the mineral, that finished at the beginning of 1912 with an agreement between both societies. Then, the 11 of January of 1912, the government approved the law that granted the authorization to operate the deposit. The 3 of April of 1913, in the gift presidency Ramon Luco Mud, was promulgated the decree 878, that gave to the new society the permission to establish agency in Chile.
Under hégira of the Guggenheim brothers (Society Braden Cooper Co. ) the operation of the deposit in Chuquicamata begins in 1915, with a plant of 10,000 tons daily. By their salitrero past and the repression against the labor movements, the Guggenheim brothers, decided to change the name of their company by Chile Exploration Company, that by an error was identified during long time like "Chilex". This error to call " Chilex" also it is used commonly for the theater, although its name is Chile theater, not " chilex".
After 14 years of operation, Chile Exploration Company sold its rights to the Anaconda Copper Company. The soundings of the mineral were in charge of Edwin Berry and Walter Perkins, that engaged like assistants the brothers Juan and Alberto Almonte, connoisseurs of watered down and the rivers of the zone, vital elements to establish an extractive task. The 4 of February of 1913 Chile Exploration received its first manager: Fred Hellman.
One of the first authorizations that receive the company came from the mayor of Tocopilla and had as objective to allow the land use for the rise of an electrical plant that would give energy to Chuquicamata.
In the local scope, the cuprífera received several hectares for the construction of a mineral leaching plant of low law and a space for the camping of its personnel, besides water Mercedes in the rivers San Pedro, Toconce and Lequena. Also tender was mentioned a permission internal railway lines and a branch to the Antofagasta-Bolivia railroad.
Also the construction of lines of communication of electrical energy and a telephone line between Tocopilla and Chuquicamata.
It was born thus, the Arsenal, his frames, the beams and pillars are entretejían in heights that went from the 71 meters in length by 25 of width. In a level more down and to a distance of 200 meters, the Copper Smelting rose, to the front the electrolytic house.
The construction of the camping began in 1917 . In charge engineers determined the location of two great complexes of houses, those that would be located to three kilometers of distance of the grates that marked the limit of the work areas.
Near the mine, the North Americans made level some sectors, giving beginning to the American Camping, denominated thus because there engineer and executive Americans would only live. Thus, from his Chuquicamata beginnings he counted on two campings, distant 3 kilometers to each other and connected by the Tocopilla Avenue.
The life of the American lasted until 1980, when their houses were transferred, among them house 2000 (General The Manager House), in 1984, today is in the Auka-Huasi town, of the sector the west of the Camping.
The disposition of the houses was hierarchic. The house of the manager of the company was in highest and its design would be known like "Special", a model of construction that was used between the great landowners, to the south of the United States .
The materials were brought from the foreigner and the architecture gave space to great large windows, pillars of pine Oregon, a interior plated in the same material, a great room with an enormous chimney, cooks, halls reception, five dormitories, two more appointed the personnel on watch, ample patios and land for future gardens.
More down the houses of the assistant directors, with a similar style, calls "Special". The difference with the house of the manager was the size.
In sequence descendant, the rise of the houses was seen that the designated superintendents would occupy type "Large A". Then, "Large B", for the North American heads according to its rank. "Detached A-B", "Ford To" and, finally small dimensions that would be occupied by the engineer futures that would work for Chile Exoploration Company.
A bullfight had four houses. The 200, 300, 400 and 500 are born therefore. They were separated to each other, some even were in the top of a small hill, as it were the case of the 400, that later it would be the way of communication between the American Camping and the worker. In the low part of the working camping, the company commanded to construct "the Sunk ones", a type of house with the same characteristics that the Tins, but covered in the ground floor with brasses and the discharge with wood. A bullfight was formed by nine houses, those that were in the corners were smaller. Each bullfight took a letter. The lot began in the "A" and finished in the "I". The numeration went of the west to this, therefore the 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70 and 80 were, until arriving at the 1099. Against the letter "To", infantile games, those rose that counted on modern infrastructure. Behind this complex "Types C", a construction that emphasized when entering a small hall, living, dining room, two or three dormitories and the characteristic patio closed with esterilla were located. Each two run existed a pylon, place from where the water was extracted. It consisted of a heavy pipe of more than 15 centimeters of diameter. Within this one there was a key. The pylon was within a cement circle that had one esterilla, the one that was connected as well with the water-drainage, that is to say, in the same place where they were hurled the wastes the vital element removed. In a great esplanade underneath "Tins" it was the sector that would occupy the future school, the church and a field of skating. In the side the west they were constructed the "Adobes Type", small constructions done in Calama, whose raw material (adobes) arrived at the mineral in small carts thrown by mules. He was common that the adobes were divided in the way, reason why the engineers decided to bring the Earth and the straw to make the adobe in the same place where he was being constructed. The bullfights are numbered from the 10 to the 40 and, from letter "C" to the "W".
The hygienic services were in the corners. Thus each 12 houses there was a common bath, the one that one long canal or wall of 35 centimeters of stop by 10 of width consisted of. The baths did not count on separation, with the consequent lack of privacy in the case of going several people at the same time. This true drain in many opportunities played bad past which did not know and it was located in the first place, this one was almost always vacated, since to every ten minutes a strong water spurt that emerged from a heavy pipe and devastated and so it found, taking to the unwary surprised one by the canal. In their beginnings, the populations of greater spread were "the Sunk ones", "the Tins" and "the Adobes" (many of these were demolished or renewed between 1970 and 1990) and, finally divided by the crossing of the railway line that came from Calama and died in the different work areas, were located "600s", right on the feet of hills. Neighbor to this small camping began the construction of long bullfights, those that strangely had the access doors in the flanks. On the inside an extensive corridor with several pieces, to which it was called "the Ships soon to them", because they had a similarity with the rooms of the boats. These pieces were destined to the single women. These soon they happened to be between 1970 and 1990 I exercise of engineers N°1 de Chuquicamata, whose symbol was a number a 1 with one picota and anchor crossed. The basic services were during decades in the American Camping: the hospital, the American Recova, the bakery, the Quarter of Firemen and Customs officers. By the end of the decade of the 40 the company announced the construction of new houses. These would be between the new market and the N°7 sentry box (way to Tocopilla). Of equal way, in the site today known as Nórmac Plant, 8 ships with 34 pieces were built each for workers and two more for the employees than they were in front of the camping Broad. The 544 houses were distributed of the following way: 250 houses would have a dormitory, living, a kitchen and a bath; 140 of two dormitories, 92 with three dormitories and 62 with four rooms. All was given the 24 of December of 1949, being qualified just in 1952.
Retired of the camping, in the same place that occupies until today, they were the lands for the cemetery. Apparently before there was another cemetery in Chuquicamata in already mentioned Placilla.
Camping dates from first years of, since a place became necessary of relaxation for the Americans who lived in the American camping, soon between 1970 and 1980 were closed by the expansion of the camping and new one in the sector of the Auka-Huasi town was constructed one, being inaugurated in 1985, this only granted attention to the supervisors of the mine, up to 1990 year in which all the workers of Codelco could make use of the facilities. Even though that this building only has some of the imported elements of the original club, it does not have a defined architectonic style, because it consists of the adoption of fields and swimming pools realized after his construction. The transfer meant definitive suppression of this one social club, since the company denied the construction of new Chilex-Club in Calama.
Without a doubt, this one is one of the icons of Chuquicamata, that in the future will evoke the memories of the mineral. Founded on 1943, Chile abrió to its doors with the opening of the film "That one Night in River". Their stellar protagonists were Carmen Vantage point, Caesar Romero and Alicia Fai. This room of theater was faithful copy of a cinema of Virginia, the United States. The places were certain according to the social class. It silverplates discharge, left side was exclusive for the North Americans, alongside straight the executives, in it silverplates low the Chilean supervisors and employees. The gallery was the place for the rest of the community. With a capacity for two thousand people, for sixty years hardly if it reached to satisfy the demand of diversion. Between the 2002 and 2005 building he was used as it soothes of the N°3 Union of the Division and their outer conditions were deplorable (by lined and graffitti, and the ceiling very aggravated by use of the doves by not being maintained), today is being remodelado.
Of it cuts net modernist, this building is the main manifestation of the union movement among 1920 and 1940, with ample facades and one species of ceiling in the form of wave, war is a representative style of post. It was used like main scene of several acts and degrees. Today it is soothes of the facilities of the union N°1 and N°2 de Trabajadores of the division.
Different educational establishments worked in Chuquicamata, among them:
The year 2004 the School begins its functions in a new building in the City of Calama. 24 of September of 2006 the building located in Chuquicamata is destroyed by a fire reduced that it to ashes.
Very well-known it is a phrase the one that is considered by many generations infaltable: " The National anthem sera directed by professor Edmundo Biaggini" that every Monday was pronounced.
The School, today in Calama, celebrates its anniversary in the month of November opportunity in which diverse commemorative activities are realized. Account with academy of Folclor, Soccer and Baby-soccer.
In the year 1970, by Resolution of the Ministry of Education, the Chilex School is designated " Collaborator of the Educative Function of the Estado", with the name of Particular School Nº 8", telling on courses of Parvulario Eighth Basic Year.
15 of November of 1978, by Resolution 1094, took its present name from Chuquicamata School, employee of the Company Codelco Chile, Chuquicamata Division, including from the Parvulario level to Fourth Year of Average Education.
From 1995, happened to depend on the Educational Foundation Chuquicamata.
During the years of military Government, from 1973, the misas was realized to doors closed due to the touch of is restored in those years.
His last priest was the parish priest Enrique I trimmed off lower branches of Turú, who celebrated the last misas and closed the parish in Chuquicamata definitively, to give course to the transfer of this one to new dependancies in Calama, to continue the evangelizadora mission in the new towns of the workers of Codelco in Calama .
Some important dates:
Date of creation decree company/signature: 30 of October of 1917.
This church was one of the last dependancies, independent of the administration of Codelco, that worked in Chuquicamata.
Directed to the workers, it was the great answer for which during years they did not have an own place and of privilege like the one of his companions, who by social position were "different" (like example the Chilex Club).
The other problem was the assaults that happened in this passage. But not only there were assaults in the way, the salesmen who arrived the pay day for "plucking" the employees was another headache for the landlords. The headquarters took letters and raised a building that would do the times of faenadora, place to where the animal arrived directly from Argentina. The Chinese were the ones in charge to take care of the enclosure. The term "pulpería" adapted of the United States, means "pulp" place where several sorts are sold. Very known in the salitreras they extended until the mining campings, including all type of products. Pulperías was another one of the benefits that the company gave to its workers, allowing to tell them free on foods of first necessity, thanks to a granted subsidy to work in the company. In the dawn of century XX the cost of life of the employees was extremely high due to the speculation and the loads. Nevertheless, when the North American administration settled, the prices of articles of first necessity were congealed, first with low prices in nine foods, extending in 1932 to all the products, since the financial crisis devalued the Chilean peso.
The articles of pulpería were classified in "rationed" and "not rationed". First they were specifically certain in rationing cards and they only could be acquired in the amounts that in them were expressed. The right to this ration extended to the worker or employee, besides its legitimate wife, the illegal, natural or hijastros children and daughters until the 18 years and, the parents of the worker when the economic support of the family suffered some accident that it prevented him to continue serving the company. Pulperías was great sheds, similars to a supermarket. They were located in strategically important points of the camping. The N°1 worked to the entrance of the American Camping. There the employees bought so much as the managers of the company, acquiring products of better quality than in the rest of pulperías. Next to her a bakery was constructed that was exclusive of the company, like the milk plant. In the Working Camping, in as much, they were the N°2 (Next to parvularia school " The Principito" (or Pinocho by a great figure that is looked like the wood puppet)) and N°3 (entered which is today the second entrance to the mine) which they were great warehouses where it bought the majority of the workers. This distribution obeyed to the proximity that had these businesses with the houses. Finally, recova American, that was constructed especially for the North Americans.
This card era of fine cardboard and took the name of the employee, its number of file, its pay and the list of articles that could acquire. The first day of every month was received and with her the owner of house went to pulpería after determining which were the monthly needs of the familiar group.
Once in the premises, they were placed in the corresponding row; there were one of packings, another one of vegetables and fruits and, another one for the meat. Then, the row to pay, gave the card there and the merchandizes were tallied that had retired.
Another benefit for the workers was the prices of the merchandizes, much more under which in the commerce established in the environs (including Calama). This was reason for great tails and agglomerations. Also was current that familiar or friendly of the workers please asked to acquire articles nonrationed.
The robbery in pulperías practical common and until was accepted by the administration in "reasonable" proportions. Each pulpería had superintendents and heads of pulpería, besides the heads of each area who were in charge of the normal operation of the premises. In pulpería N°1 it was the warehouse of Valparaiso, place where all the merchandize arrived that had to be distributed to the different branches. Every three months an inventory had to become, subject that was not very easy, by the customary losses. The disappearance of pulperías was gradual, being replaced in the Nineties by the supermarket Ekono and Tiendas Falabella . The great loss in this new system was the low prices. The physical spaces that occupied by so many years these pulperías redistributed of the following way:
pulpería N°1 this buried by the advance of the debris that comenzo in completes week of June of 2008 .
Under just the getting up district "the Tins" the Mixed School Nª10 was created, without a doubt everything a gift for the children of the workers. Nevertheless, its construction created more of some problem for the engineers of the time. Against the establishment it had been a esplanade, the one that a principle was thought to erect other buildings, idea that with time was being in the forgetfulness. 1923 ran and the place had become the point of contact of the chuquicamatinos that all the Sunday met to enjoy music which they touched small the symphonic ones composed by workers and fans to the musical art. Like well-known " Chilex". These groups were characteristic of the salitreras and its quality obvious had extended the times, inasmuch as to some they contracted them heads so that they also brightened up his particular celebrations. Thus the ladies and the men who took a walk by that one esplanade shone their elegant suits, as a sample of their last acquisition in Antofagasta, in the importer Pinnau and company., who was in charge to bring besides clothes, articles for the home, tools and machineries. The week ends had acquired great importance for the population, as much that some North Americans excited with the musical orchestras and groups ventured themselves to create their own grouping of jazz, style that by those years made rage in the United States. To the compass of swing and blue they demonstrate to the assistants who are good dancers. With the wind so characteristic of the place, it raised dust and it soiled shoes, suits and hats. For such reason, the administration decided to fill up the esplanade with gradilla and to draw up what later it would be the Place of Arms of Chuquicamata, that would count on gardens, sinks and in center one " torre" with banks so that the people and the band could be comfortable, but between 2000 and 2006, the place was watched by inescrupulous who destroyed and brought about visual contamination to the place with graffitti, today totally was recovered.
The hospital rose with five floors of height and two subterraneans (the well-known floors G and B ), having a specialty basic by floor, plus a pensioner and next to them, a pavilion of operations, delivery rooms, laboratory, X-rays, among others so many dependancies, that they turned quickly it into the best and more modern center of the country, equipped to be self-sufficient, given to the distance of the other medical enclosures of Chile, and including of Santiago The marble gardens and coatings in their main access were the special characteristic of the enclosure, added to a peripheral wall of copper sulfate blocks that granted an original scenery, besides a surprise, a sculpture of the tower eiffel on scale. At the time of their inauguration 18 doctors worked .
Gradually they went away creating Neonatología, the Unit of Cuidados Intensivos (UCI) of that area, UCI of adults, Hemodiálisis, Ophtalmology, Orthopedic surgery, Otorrinolaringología, Siquiatría, Pathological Anatomy, Ecographies, Scanner (first of the country), Dermatology, Kinesiología, Automated Clinical Laboratory, among others.
worked during 41 years, which gave a unique work, getting to be, at some moment, recognized like the best hospital of South America, today rests under tons of debris, after a cruel agony, in which it was involved, several demolitions and cutting of trees, which were thrown down and were buried next to the colossus of green color.
Also very the pharmacies are remembered like: Cotorás and Síglic, along with the houses Dissi, Anita, Choliux, Carmona, Mile, others like the La Riojan. The hotels Washington, Yoma, Cobre. The soda water sources " the new Gallo" and " The Anaconda".
Warehouse the Queen : It dates from 1915, was administered by the Mimica Family from 1915 to 1960, this is one of the oldest warehouses of the mineral. From 1960 to in the actuliadad it has been administered and taken care of by the Family Shock Lopez and Hijos,
Social Club : It was located near the American camping, it counted on 6 fields of Bowling and several places of entretención. In addition he was one of the first centers of Bowling in Chile.
Radio " Loa" : " was located underneath a esplanade next to the O'Higgins population (; The Nórmac"), soon to be occupied by an office of Codelco.
Refreshment bar " The Minero" : It worked during several years underneath the Chile theater, was taken care of by his Owner Do6na.
Rossi Ironworks : It was located right in the center, next to the pharmacy " Cotoras". It was created by the Rossi Brothers of Italian origin.
House Ruiz : It was located in well-known " Ruiz" small square;, that was located in front of the Departments " Diego Portales". At the moment they take care of in the city of Calama.
Bookstores " Chilex" and " The Union" : First it is today soothes of a museum that gives routes (Tours) by the mine and second by several years he was restaurant.
Club Of Employees : 1947 date from, was a very common place for the workers who looked for distraction, at the moment is located in the city of Calama, way to San Pedro de Atacama, near the Municipal cemetery, where 5ta was located Corner.
Great Store " The Vicuña" : 1926 date from, is located in the main street of the center, today this remodelada.
Club of Rayuela
Hill de la Cruz : It was way in the procession of Easter every year, that showed the great faith of people since the community of the El Salvador parish walked by its slope reviviendo the moment of the crucifixion, that was full of emotividad and which, to far, were listened to the prayers, music and dances that escorted to the vehicle of the father Enrique, who revivia the moments of Jesus in the Calvary and that in the summit of the hill delivered a beautiful speech next to the imposing cross of the hill, intact, that seemed to have a cruel agony, since a debris I am placed behind, for perhaps, to finish with this symbol.
Cave Of the Pirate : The popular stories speak of which the name must to the presence of a vagabond used who it like refuge and that in years 60 settled outside the fair with a bottle of red wine and when it was totally alcolizado shouted " I am the pirate, I I am pirata" and even with its clothes and beard neglected along with lenses that used to hide the lack of an eye.
In order to replace the houses, it was constructed Abra in the place of Tins, with a total of 56 houses for the employees of the company. And for those who still did not have house, in Calama began a massive urbanization that constructed to more towns and populations in Calama. In 1974 divided the project of 312 departments for unmarried, whereas the Adobes would have 8 blocks of married departments for, divided in four blocks of four floors and four of three. Another plan was the first game of 408 houses, of which 178 correspond to the sector of 600s, the rest would be located to the North flank of the Population the Discoverers of America. The new houses are of two plants and with equipped kitchen totally. Between 1975 and 1995 divided to the existence of the new population John Bradford. The execution of the project included a surface of 15 thousand meters square and represented a complete remodeling in view of the hospital with 2 sectors, in which was the Hotel John Bradford and like data the last group that was and took a photo to the front from this hotel was Lucybell when 2000 visited the zone the year . The rise of other towns followed its normal course, like the town Auka-Huasi and Atacama, in addition several reconstructed themselves, practically solving to all the residential problems of the mineral, demonstrating in addition a sustained growth that it gave without a doubt a taken care of aspect him more of to the old camping. In addition in Chuquicamata they were counted on services of completes generation .
Furthermore some places that were very frequented by the children and young people who grew in Chuquicamata:
the cave of the pirate
31 of August and 1 of September of 2007 was realized the official ceremony of closing of the camping, after 92 years of existence, is had thought to keep the chuquicamatina memory being preserved the historical helmet from the camping which has been remodelado to be visited.
Of all parts of Chile and the foreigner, thousands of ex- inhabitants of Chuquicamata attended the final event of the closing of this mining camping, that lodged to several generations of compatriots from 1915 .
They were more than 30 thousand people those that repletaron the streets and the esplanade to a flank of the Place of the Heroes. In front of the Chuqui Club a monumental scene mounted, by that local groups marched past, to finalize with the presentation of the Sonant Palaces and the Jaivas .
Of battery of Juanita Vine the only accompanied with the members of the Jaivas and the Sonant Palaces gave to the beginning to the spectacular festival pyrotechnics that astonished to the multitudinal attending public.
This festival, that illuminated skies of Chuquicamata, lasted more than 20 minutes, whereas in bottom the song of " was listened to; The Pampinos" (group of the zone) " Miner De Cobre" along with the noise that emitted trucks of the mine, along with the sirens of cars of firemen later to take step to the subject, " Chuquicamata" of Dark Antonio followed by "All the Together "of Jaivas, moments at which the families, the friendly and the fellow workers embraced and cried, in the middle of an emotion that removed the foundations of this historical city.
During afternoon, the Minister of Mining, Karen Poniachik, next to the Corporative Vice-president of North Codelco, local Sergio Jarpa, and authorities, discovered a commemorative plaque, that it marks this historical date as the final closing of a full mining camping of memories.
Today Chuquicamata, simultaneously gives to tranquility and one complete solitude to the last families who are there, waiting for its transfer to the neighboring city of Calama, with all the populations already surrounded and many that today are being demolished like " The Lagos" and " Villa Florencia", besides almost all the closed stores.

Something as easy as how to pay your mortgage should be a one paragraph column, but it isn't. As the industry has become more complex, the ways to pay your mortgage have also become more complicated. We have teaser rates, interest only rates, longer and longer terms on our loans, graduated payment loans and option arms with choices to be made each month. Add to the list is bi-weekly loans and the paragraph is over and all I have done is confused most of the readers. So now, I am going to spend the rest of the article giving you some ideas of how to pay your mortgage to best serve yourself.
First and foremost , you can pay any mortgage anyway you wish as long as you pay what is called for on the mortgage coupon. You can pay an interest only line as a fully amortized 15 year fixed. You can pay an option arm as an interest only loan or as a 15 year loan using the pay rate (teaser) as long as it covers the minimum (teaser) rate.. You can pay a 5 year arm as a fully amortized 5 year loan, even if it has a prepayment penalty attached. One can pay a 20 year fixed as a 10 year fully amortized loan. And having decided to one of any of the above you can change to another one each and every month. The caveat is always just to be sure you pay at least what the coupon is telling you to pay.
I am sure that at this point some of the readers are saying to themselves , and anyone who will listen ,that the 30 year fixed is the best loan for everyone because you can do as above and always have the "safety" of falling back to a 30 year. The reason that you shouldn't do that is the rate is too high. I will demonstrate the old adage; nothing beats a lower interest rate, and show you the fallacy of the above thinking.
A growing number of people are gravitating to the bi-weekly mortgage because it will pay your 30 year loan off in approximately 23 years. The design of the mortgage isn't what creates the quicker amortization it is the extra full payment you make each year (13 vs. 12).
If you had a 7% 30 year and decided to make it a bi-weekly, using a $250,000 loan for the example you would be spending about $21,700 a year in payments and lower the amortization to 23.33 years.
A 20 year fixed for the same amount @ 5.75% would have you paying about $21,000 a year in payments (12) and have you finished paying off the loan over 3 years faster.

couchapp push . http://name:password@hostname:5984/mydatabase
If you don't have a password on your CouchDB (admin party) you can do it like this (but it's a bad, idea, set a password):
couchapp push . http://hostname:5984/mydatabase
If you get sick of typing the URL, you should setup a
.couchapprc file in the
root of your directory. Remember not to check this into version control as it
will have passwords in it.
.couchapprc file should have contents like this:
{ "env" : { "public" : { "db" : "http://name:firstname.lastname@example.com/mydatabase" }, "default" : { "db" : "http://name:pass@localhost:5984/mydatabase" } } }
Now that you have the
.couchapprc file set up, you can push your app to the
CouchDB as simply as:
couchapp push
This pushes to the
default as specified. To push to the
public you'd run:
couchapp push public
Of course you can continue to add more deployment targets as you see fit, and give them whatever names you like.

Hurricane forecasters eager for new tool in space
Posted: August 31, 2012
Two satellites orbiting 22,300 miles above Earth kept Hurricane Isaac in their sights as it churned toward Louisiana, giving meteorologists clues on the storm's wandering course and intensity.
Without the satellites, forecasters would have been unable to track the storm's movement or strength, putting countless more lives at risk from the hurricane's wrath.
Despite advancements in satellite technology and numerical computer models, predicting tropical weather is still wrought with uncertainty. Five-day outlooks often have a track error of hundreds of miles, and forecasting a hurricane's intensity is even more difficult.
NOAA is preparing forecasters for a new series of spacecraft with advanced imagers and more robust instruments designed to further reduce forecasting blunders.
"The next big thing on the horizon is the next generation of GOES, which is GOES R starting in 2015, and there will be another step up in what we can do with weather monitoring and hurricane analysis," said Mark DeMaria, a NOAA researcher specializing in the use of satellite observations in hurricane forecasting.
The Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite, or GOES, system has continuously monitored weather over North America since 1975. The satellites are positioned in geostationary orbit 22,300 miles above the equator and appear to hover over a fixed position on Earth.
NOAA maintains operational satellites in two locations covering the Pacific and Atlantic regions, providing overlap over North America.
DeMaria said it's impossible for him to imagine forecasting tropical cyclones today without GOES satellites. He said the network of spacecraft has saved countless lives by facilitating more accurate track and intensity predictions.
When GOES satellites first began launching in the 1970s, hurricane track forecasts had average errors of more than 100 miles one day in advance, and nearly 400 miles three days ahead of time.
Today, the errors are about 50 miles at one day and 120 miles at three days.
"That makes a huge difference in getting people prepared," DeMaria said.
But meteorologists have not seen as much progress in predicting a storm's intensity, which can be determined by wind patterns, ocean temperatures, moisture in the atmosphere, and other variables.
According to DeMaria, there have been modest improvements in forecasting a hurricane's strength. But on average, predictions can be off by as much as 20 knots - approximately the difference between a Category 1 and Category 2 hurricane.
"It's a more difficult problem (than track)," DeMaria said. "We need to continue to chip away with it with better satellite data, using the aircraft reconnaissance data better than we do now, and developing better modeling tools than we have now."
Although upgraded satellites will not solve the forecasting conundrum - better computer models and algorithms are needed, too - they will ensure fresh data are in the hands of meteorologists, and the quality of the observations will be improved.
NOAA has ordered at least two next-generation satellites from Lockheed Martin Corp. The first of the series is scheduled for launch in late 2015.
NOAA officials say the schedule is tight to meet the 2015 launch date, and a Government Accountability Office report concluded there was less than a 50 percent chance of the program staying on schedule.
"All flight instrument critical design reviews are complete, and all flight instruments are in flight hardware fabrication, integration, or test," said Marcus Watkins, director of NASA's joint agency satellite division.
NASA oversees procurement and acquisition of NOAA's weather satellites.
The GOES R satellites will return images of Earth's full disk every 15 minutes and regional observations near the United States every 5 minutes - up from every half-hour and 15 minutes, respectively.
And the GOES R imager, built by ITT Exelis, will provide twice the spatial resolution and more than three times the number of spectral channels than the current GOES imaging camera.
"We'll be able to look at cloud structure and estimate precipitation better," DeMaria said. "We'll be able to estimate the winds around the tropical cyclone better by tracking the features in the imagery. That's essential for forecasting where the storm is going to go."
Officials decided to remove a sounding instrument from at least the next two GOES satellites due to budget concerns. But DeMaria said the new imager will replace some of the sounder's capability, such as imaging different levels of the atmosphere to determine a storm's structure.
The sounders on current GOES satellites measure atmospheric temperature and moisture profiles.
And a new lightning detector on the next series of GOES satellites will log in-cloud and cloud-to-ground strikes.
"Intensity forecasting is one of the things that has been lagging behind the ability to forecast the track. We're hoping to get some improvement in that area with GOES R, both with improved imaging and the new lightning mapper," DeMaria said.

Rauls Rooms and ApartmentsCaye Caulker, Belize
This is an ok-hostel. It is not far from the very centre, but its an ok distance. The price cost over benefit is not amazing, but its fine. Very clean place, Raul is lovely and helped on whatever we needed. There is no fun or place to hang out and meet people. I was with my girlfriend so it was ok, but if you travel with friends or alone it probably would not be a good option.
La Posada Chetumal HostelChetumal, Mexico
Chetumal is a passing by city, not often the final destination. For this reason the hostel is full of people, easy to meet other travellers. The place is a bit expensive for what it offers. Dirty bedroom, bathroom stinks so much, staff not sympathetic at all at all, far from the bus station and port. Awesome mexican heavy breakfast.
Green House HostelFoz do Iguacu, Brazil
The only bad thing about this hostel is that its far from the waterfalls or the border to Paraguai. But you are in Brasil, so things are always far. Great environment, ping pong table, open kitchen, beautifully decorated by maps and travelling stuff, cozy living room, nice staff helpful. Clean and a cute kitten around.
Hotel OllantaIca, Peru
No customer comment
Hotel UtamaCopacabana, Bolivia
+ best breakfast of Bolivia, staff in general really sympathetic and eagerly to help (which is rare in Bolivia), general facilities good and clean with confortable rooms. - the guy responsible for breakfast is always in the worst mood possible, not really safe luggage store. In general recomend a lot to stay in this hostel, specially because hostels in Bolivia mostly suck and this is nice.
Hostal ProvenzalLa Paz, Bolivia
Clean, safe and confortable place. Staff do not really help. It looks much more like a little hotel than a hostel. If you need something more than a map should look for a tourism agency.
Piedra Blanca Backpackers HostelUyuni, Bolivia
In the main avenue, around everything. Confortable beds, hot shower, helpful staff (the owners are really nice people). A lit bit expensive comparing to other hostels, but worthwhile.
Casa de Huespedes La VicuñaPotosi, Bolivia
Its well located around the main square, and there are a lot of people around the hostel, confortable beds. And thats all. There are to much people for the facilities, bathrooms are always ocupied and only one of three works fine. Music all day long since 8 am is unlikely to help travelers who intend to spend some long time travelling and need to rest a little. Acomodations extemely small and not good smell around the hostel. Staff said would book tickets for us and forgot.
Jodanga Backpackers HostelSanta Cruz, Bolivia
Very well located (if you are in santa cruz you will probably get a bus to go to some other place in Bolivia, its sided to the bus station) in front of a park, good price - value added relation. Good atmosphere with lots of people and activities. Clean place with good showers. Breakfast sucks and finishes before the appointed time.
America del Sur Hostel Buenos AiresBuenos Aires, Argentina
The hostel is located close to lots of sights, in an old neighboorhood of the city. Staff is amazing, well prepared and always knows how to help travellers on their needs. Besides, the facilities and common areas are clean, confortable and has lots of space for you to enjoy a nice wine. Not a party hostel, but certainly amazing experience.

Clean, well located and AWESOME place to meet people and have fun. However the staff does not worry about helping you, they are all young people and dont know what they are doing there, if enjoying or working, most of times just enjoying.
