"Rocky: Land o' Lakes & Looking Back" Top 5 Page for this destination Rocky Mountain National Park by richiecdisc
Rocky Mountain National Park Travel Guide: 277 reviews and 652 photos
Rocky Mountain National Park is a quintessential alpine region as well as a diverse and well run endeavor that ensures the enjoyment of this pristine area for generations of Americans and those from further afield looking for an America of past glory. The Rockies are an iconic image of the lure of the west and without this expansion, the United States might have remained a quaint colonial country not so unlike the European counterparts from which it was attempting to escape. The wild west was where America truly started to diverge from its past with gold rushes, frontiers not yet explored by ?civilized? man, and the ?discovery? of landscapes in some cases beyond imagination. Taming these terrains was no easy task but the residual scaring of a land previously unmarked led to calls for protection in the form of the national park system.
Rocky Mountain National Park came into being in 1915. By then, the elk population of the area had been hunted to extinction and had been re-introduced along with the elimination of their nature predators, the wolf and grizzly. Ironically, the park at present has an over-population of the large and majestic member of the deer family. The lesson to be learned is that nature knows what nature needs. Hunting elk was probably not such a bad thing but hunting them commercially and sending the meat to Denver to be packed was irresponsible and an insult to natural order. Killing grizzlies and wolves to help elk rebound was a similarly ill-fated abomination of nature. Good intentions do not necessarily have their desired results.
What does all this mean? Perhaps that man must come to realize he is only part of a much larger picture. If in fact we are so superior to the planet's other inhabitants, we need to look at how it reacts to our choices and adjust our motives accordingly. When I first came to these mountains, I knew my life was very far away from them. Not just in a physical sense but also in one of how I had been living my life. Walking along an alpine stream, looking down from a mountain top at an incredibly beautiful landscape, one not indelibly altered by man, I felt more at peace with the world, and with myself. Come to Rocky Mountain National Park not so much to see the sights but to find a part of you that may have escaped your previous discovery. With a renewed kinship to the land, you just might make a difference in what direction our planet goes.
Rocky Mountain National Park has a great infrastructure for all types of use. One great alpine drive that averages 11,000 feet crosses its entire 265,00 acres. Another one cuts into the most popular area and is smartly serviced by Eco-friendly shuttles. Short hikes allow access to incredible natural beauty, making them accessible to anyone with a bit of determination. They even has some wheel-chair accessible backcountry camping! For those looking for more solitude and adventure, it's here too. The Rockies are part of an amazing American heritage and this park strives to preserve at least a part of them for future generations. It's one Colorado Rocky Mountain High you might not want to do without.

Richie, that is quite a collection of National Parks you tamed in this part of America! I was amazed at the number and beauty of the various hikes that are possible in Rocky Mountain NP! Fantastic photos as always!
Another "must visit" to add to my long long list, I see! I'll try to come in autumn (OK fall lol) as your photos of the foliage are wonderful - of the various views & wildlife (especially elk) too, as ever. And even I could manage many of these hikes ;-)
Absolutely incredible tips and photos. Love your journeys. Wishing you great adventures in this New Year.
see, if we had spent the second night in the basin, we would have not stopped for breakfast at the bierstadt lake & missed the ducks... D knows what R needs ;)
Beer lake and Bear lake - gets confusing now :-) Well, plan B looks amazing, especially in this magic time of the year. Haha, sorry, I still laugh about the chipmunk and the elks, can even hear them :-) Bobbing, that sounds funny, not only for ducks :-)
Yet another really impressive page with great photos and texts! By coincidence I was also in Bierstadt last week, but mine was just a quite ordinary district in the city of Wiesbaden, not a great mountain lake like the one you hiked to.

Inovio Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ:INO) is steadily advancing its development of a potential Zika virus vaccine.
In February, the biotech announced positive results from testing of its Zika vaccine in mice. On May 16, Inovio took one step further in its quest to make it to market. The company reported that testing of its GLS-5700 vaccine for the Zika virus induced "robust" antibody and T cell responses in monkeys. This is probably the most important step for Inovio yet in its effort to develop the world's first Zika vaccine.
It's in the DNA
Make no mistake -- Inovio's earlier testing with mice was a big deal. The protein-coding portions of mouse and human genomes are around 85% identical. Especially because GLS-5700 is a DNA-based vaccine, the good results from testing with mice were meaningful.
But testing with non-human primates like monkeys is an even bigger deal. Humans and monkeys share around 93% of DNA. In Inovio's test, two doses of the Zika vaccine were administered to monkeys. All of the vaccinated monkeys showed specific antibodies in their blood. In addition, researchers found robust T cell responses in the animals.
What does all of this really mean? The results suggested that GLS-5700 could indeed prevent infection by the Zika virus. Antibodies are key in preventing infection. T cells can kill cells that harbor the Zika virus. The presence of both antibodies and broad T cell responses shows promise that Inovio's vaccine could ultimately prove to be effective.
Top banana
The important thing for investors to take away from Inovio's latest announcement is that the small biotech remains in the driver's seat in the race to develop a Zika virus vaccine. Inovio will now be able to move forward with testing in humans later this year. No other company appears to be that far along.
Good morning..It might be a better idea if you call INO and get it from the horses' mouth..Please let us know Al..

From the looks of things nothing to say means nothing good!. ...You can bad mouth me all you want after this but over $ 3.00 and not a sound becomes irresponsible and worrisome.

Vermont officials get revenue updateJuly 23,2013The Associated Press
MONTPELIER — Two consulting economists say Vermont's revenue forecast is improving, with the general fund and transportation fund expected to be up in fiscal year 2014.
The economists recommended to lawmakers and the governor on Tuesday an increase of 3 percent in the general fund to $4 million for the fiscal year and a 7.4 percent upgrade to the transportation fund to $17.2 million from their January forecast.
But the economists recommended downgrading the education fund by 3 percent or $500,000.
Economist Thomas Kavet says the state ended the fiscal year 1.5 percent above expectations. But he said the economic recovery has been slow.
He says the state would normally be having accelerated rates of growth at this stage but says it's not because of "headwinds that exist from federal fiscal policy."MORE IN This Just In

Welcome to Mrs. DeLeon's classroom website
Name: Jennifer DeLeon
Grade/Subject: 4th grade / Language Arts
To Leave a Voicemail: 9722360600, ext 8829
Email: jennifer firstname.lastname@example.com
Welcome to Olson! I am very excited to be your child's 4th grade Writing and Social Studies teacher. My husband Ray and I just celebrated our 30th wedding anniversary this summer and have lived in Allen for 25 years. This will be my 10th year of teaching. Previously, I had spent several years at home with my 3 children Joshua, Carah and Mikaela. Before returning to teaching full time, I worked part time as a contracted tutor for Allen ISD with students in grades 3rd through 6th.
Upon returning to full time teaching 7 years ago, I attended a3 week Writing Institute Course, as well as an Empowering Writers Conference in order to prepare for the amazing job of teaching young writers the art of writing. The training I received has enabled me to teach all of my students how to build and develop their writing skills, so they are able to express themselves more confidently. The strategies your child will learn will help them to become very capable writers. Writing is a process and takes a lot of practice to develop, and I feel confident that your child will become very excited about what they write this year!
In addition I have attended Abydos Reading Week through Allen ISD, and I will continue to implement several of the strategies I learned during our Social Studies lessons this year. Please look into getting your child a library card to use at the Public Library in order to enhance their reading at home and school. Also, taking time to talk about what they read upon completion of books will increase their ability to think at a higher level.
During the past 3 summers, I attended Professional Development Courses regarding the "Implementation of Technology Into The Classroom in the 21st Century." Some of the technology that will be used to enhance classroom learning will include: the use of our classroom I-Pad; Smart Board activities during both small group and whole group lessons; use of the school sets of laptops and I-pads within the classroom for Social Studies and Writing assignments, and of course continued use the of the computer labs at school. I would highly encourage you to allow your child to practice their computer and keyboarding skills at home since they will increasingly use these as they move throughout future grade levels.
My goal is for each child I teach, to successfully complete 4th grade feeling confident and proud about their writing, so that they will be able to continue building upon this extremely important communication skill. Reading and writing go hand in hand, so the more your child reads the better writer they will become.
I addition, I am excited about the opportunity to teach your child all about our fabulous state of Texas during our incredible Social Studies lessons. This year we will be implementing our newly adopted curriculum "My World" through Pearson. Your child will have the opportunity to complete many of the activities digitally throughout the year, and as the year progresses they may have access to their account online at home. Stay tuned for more information in this area.
Please contact me through email if you ever have questions or concerns. Thank you for the privilege of teaching your child.

The atherosclerotic process begins in childhood and progresses slowly into adulthood. Aortic fatty streaks occur in individuals as young as 3 years old,1 and coronary fatty streaks occur in more than half of children aged 10 to 14 years. Approximately 8% of individuals aged 10 to 14 years have more advanced lesions.2,3 Pathologic studies4,5 have shown gross evidence of coronary disease in young soldiers killed in the Korean and Vietnam conflicts. Vascular changes have been shown to correlate with blood cholesterol levels in the Bogalusa Heart Study6,7 and in the Pathobiological Determinants of Atherosclerosis in Youth Program.8 Postmortem arterial lesions were positively related to antemortem lowdensity and very-low-density cholesterol levels and negatively related to antemortem high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels.

I never thought I would say this, but Jon Stewart let me down. He had Sen. Rick Santorum as a guest last night, perhaps the greatest gift a late-night humorist could receive, and he blew it. It's too sad to write about in detail now, maybe someone else who watched will have the strength. All I can do is ask:
What happened? Where is the Jon Stewart who shredded Tucker Carlson live on CNN, the Stewart I fell in love with? I am inconsolable.

Which sex is the worst about washing up? Why is it so important? We've got the dirty truth on how and when to wash your hands.
Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) Injuries
Most surgery for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries involves replacing the ACL with tissue called a graft. Usually an autograft (tendon tissue taken from another part of the body) is used. Repair is also done when the ACL has been torn from the upper or lower leg bone (avulsion). The bone fragment connected to the ACL is reattached to the bone.
Most ACL surgery is done by making small incisions in the knee and inserting surgical tools through these incisions (arthroscopic surgery). Open surgery (cutting a large incision in the knee) is sometimes required.
Goals of surgery
The goals of surgical treatment for ACL injuries are to:
- Restore normal or almost normal stability in the knee.
- Restore the level of function you had before the knee injury.
- Limit loss of function in the knee.
- Prevent injury or degeneration to other knee structures.
Most people who have ACL surgery have favorable results, with reduced pain, good knee function and stability, and a return to normal levels of activity. But some still have knee pain and instability. Athletes and those who take part in sports typically can return to their sports within months. But this may depend on how intense and sports-focused the rehab was.
- ACL Injury: Should I Have Knee Surgery?
Exercises before surgery
Before ACL surgery, strength and motion exercises are often done to help get the knee ready for surgery and for rehab after surgery. Surgery is followed by a short period of home exercises, increased activity, and the use of crutches for walking.
An intensive rehab program to strengthen the knee then begins. The rehab program often lasts up to a year.
Surgery in children and teens
Surgery for ACL injuries in children and teens involves special concerns, because children's bones are still growing. Talk to your doctor about the benefits and risks of surgery.
What to think about
Depending on how bad your injury is, surgery with rehab may offer the best chance of making your knee stable again. It also may help you return to an active lifestyle without further pain, injury, or loss of strength and movement in your knee.
If your injured knee gives out now and then (chronic ACL deficiency) and you continue to do activities that require a stable knee, you may injure your knee again. That may be another reason to consider surgery.
You will need to follow a rehab program whether or not you have surgery. If you don't complete a rehab program, even with surgery you may not regain full stability and function in your knee.

Three men were arrested after Pinal County Sheriff's Office deputies found more than 80 pounds of marijuana in a vehicle two of them were driving near Eloy Friday, according to authorities.
The deputy saw two of the men in one sedan and the third in another car violating traffic laws on the Interstate 10 at approximately 1:15 a.m.
When the deputy tried to stop one of the vehicles, it pulled over and two men fled into the desert, according to the Pinal County Sheriff's Office. The second car kept driving.
Inside the stopped car was 84 pounds of marijuana worth approximately $63,000, according to the Sheriff's Office.
Pinal County deputies and the U.S. Border Patrol agents arrested Juan Lopez-Guzman, 21, who is from Mexico, and Omar Cota, 18, who is from Tucson.
A sheriff's deputy later stopped the second car and arrested Eduardo Sanchez, 18, from Tucson.
The men were arrested on suspicion of possession of marijuana, transportation of marijuana and possession of marijuana for sale. Cota was also suspected of felony flight.
Officials seized both vehicles and $1,800.

Take a visual journey and explore the faces behind the California and Nevada credit union movement at a number of events, meetings, fundraisers, and conferences!
Catch up on what California and Nevada credit unions are accomplishing within their communities every month!
|Financial Horizons CU hosted an American Hero 5K at the Fallon Churchill Fire Department.
Warnings about that specific date regarding possible cyber-attacks, known as Distribute Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks, have been issued by the Credit Union National Association (CUNA). The attacks are aimed at disrupting or suspending online service by saturating a target's network with external communication requests to overload its server.
One California credit union has already experienced such an attack. Patelco CU suffered its own DDoS incident in January and February, where the credit union's members couldn't gain access online to their accounts on two separate occasions.
Patelco learned it was one of the first credit unions among several financial institutions nationwide to become a target of DDoS attacks originating from somewhere in Iran, as evidenced by news reports at the time. No loss of data or theft occurred in either attack, and mobile services were unaffected. Still, the credit union takes the threat extremely seriously.
The hackers "may be looking for other vulnerabilities within the credit union," said Anthony Vitale during an interview with CU Weekly earlier this year when he held the position of vice president of information technology for Patelco. He has since transitioned to an outside opportunity. "This requires a credit union to take an honest internal look at where there may be vulnerabilities. The bar truly has been raised with these attacks."
Federal officials reportedly expect the wave of DDoS attacks to continue.
If a credit union is subject to an attack, it will notice a large spike in Internet traffic to its website from one or more IP addresses, and the website will become unresponsive. Proactive measures a credit union can take include:

A daily glance inside the numbers from the world of sports:
• Raiders quarterbacks have been sacked 44 times this season, 15 more than the team with the next-most (the Browns, 29). In fact, only two other teams in NFL history have been sacked that many times over the first eight games of a season -- the 1969 Falcons (47) and 2002 Texans, a first-year expansion team (45).
The 1986 Eagles, the team that holds the single-season record for times sacked with 104, had "only" 41 over the first eight games, but 63 over the second half of the season.
Andrew Walter was sacked seven times in the first half Monday. He was the first quarterback to be sacked as many as seven times in the first half of a game since Neil O'Donnell was dropped seven times in the first half in his Jets debut, the 1996 opener for the team that went 1-15.
• The Raiders have been shut out in both of their appearances on Monday Night Football this season, 16-0 by the Seahawks on Monday and 27-0 by the Chargers in their opener. Oakland is the first team to be shut out twice in one season on Monday Night Football.
On the other side, the Seahawks became the first team to hold opponents scoreless in consecutive Monday Night appearances. Seattle's previous MNF game was a 42-0 win over the Eagles last Dec. 5.
• The Mavericks lost to the Warriors Monday, dropping them to 0-3 on the season. Over the last 25 seasons, the only other team to lose its first three games of a season following an appearance in the NBA Finals was the 76ers, who dropped their first five games in 2001.
• The Bulls and the Bucks have met 197 times in regular-season competition since the Bucks entered the NBA in 1968. Monday's game gave Chicago a 99-98 edge in wins. Entering the game, it was the most games played in any NBA team-vs.-team series in which the games had been evenly split.
• The Wizards lost in Orlando Monday, which is nothing new. Washington has lost 18 of its last 20 games there and has posted an all-time record of 6-29 (.171). The only team with a worse record than the Wizards at Orlando is the Nuggets (2-16, .111).
• The Knicks have lost three of their first four games and have allowed at least 100 points in each one. It's been 18 years since the Knicks last allowed 100 or more points in each of their first four games. That team was coached by Rick Pitino and featured Patrick Ewing, Charles Oakley, and Mark Jackson.
• The Thrashers have played only 17 games this season, but Ilya Kovalchuk has already tied an NHL season record by recording his second game of the season with at least three power-play goals. The only other players in league history with two power-play hat tricks in one season were Mike Bossy (1981-82 Islanders), Bernie Nicholls (1981-82 Kings) and Dino Ciccarelli (1985-86 North Stars).
• The Flyers lost, 4-1, to the Maple Leafs in Toronto on Monday to drop their record to 3-10-1 in 14 games this season. It's the earliest point that the Flyers have reached the 10-loss plateau in any of their 39 seasons. Before this season, the fewest games it took Philadelphia to reach double-digit losses was 17 in 1987-88 (4-10-3). Last season, the Flyers did not suffer their 10th regulation loss until Jan. 12, in their 44th game (28-10-6).
• Washington's Olaf Kolzig allowed three goals on five shots in the first 11:51 of the Capitals' game against Ottawa, at which point he was replaced in net by Brent Johnson. Kolzig's save percentage in Monday's contest (.400) was the lowest for any of the 613 regular-season games in his NHL career. Kolzig's previous low (.500) was in a game in Boston on March 8, 2003, when he faced six shots and allowed three goals in just over 10 minutes.
However, the Capitals came back to win Monday. In the last 10 years they have won only one other game in which they trailed by as many as three goals. That was a 6-5 win on March 11, also against the Senators.
• Filip Kuba's goal at 17:28 of the second period in Monday's game against the Islanders was the first by a Tampa Bay defenseman this season. The Lightning were the last team to get a goal from a defenseman this season.

Cool video and explanation of why traffic jams occur on otherwise un-obstructed roads, courtesy of New Journal of Physics and the The Lede blog at the New York Times. Apparently the key factor is traffic density. As a multi-modal commuter I see (and participate) in these all the time. The funny thing is that this justifies the smug feeling you're getting as you blow by the car-muters stuck in traffic – you're not just going faster, you're doing your part to reduce vehicle density and pointless traffic jams. Try not to lord it over the trapped-in-traffic though, they're already frustrated enough.
Chelsea Green Publishing sent us a nice little book about Biking to Work. It's a quick read and perfect to hand to your co-workers or friends that ask about your commute, urban cycling, and how to do it.
The book is published on 100% recycled paper and processed without chlorine.
What I dig here is that the Crumpler doesn't flop over when filled. Presumably, it'd sit there just like that all day. We're giving away a bunch of Crumpler bags at the SXSW BBQ.
Mix 08 is "an intimate opportunity for cutting-edge technical, creative and business strategists to engage Microsoft in a conversation about the future of the web." Right on and Bike Hugger is attending this year. (I keep trying to avoid Vegas, but it sucks me back in!).
After Mix 08, it's onto SXSW for the BBQ and Urban Ride.
Any Bike Hugger readers going to Mix?

In Excel 2007, when User A creates a new workbook, there is only 1 worksheet for the book. When user B creates a new workbook, there is the standard 3 worksheets for the book. How do I get this back to default for User A?
The workbook being opened has more than 50 worksheets that have been in the file for the last year. When User B opens the file, all 50 or more sheets are accessible. This happens with both files saved as 2003 files because the workbook has VBA macros in it and if I open new xlsx files that are in Excel 2007 format.
Cancel the question. This was apparently a cockpit error. the workbook was sized very large when a space delimited (.prn) version of one worksheet was made. I would swear I checked this before I asked the question, but I just reduced the workbook size again and the problem went away. It is interesting that the problem migrated to all excel files for user A.

Helen of Troy(formerly Helen of Sparta)
|Helen of Troy by Evelyn de Morgan
Family TreeHelen of Troy, formerly Helen of Sparta, is the daughter of Zeus and Leda, the beautiful queen of Sparta, who was raped by the former. Helen is also the sister of Clytemnestra, although Clytemnestra's father was Tyndareus, the king of Sparta and husband of Leda. Castor and Pollux (Polydeuces) were twin brothers of Helen, but only Pollux was the one who shared a father with Helen. Tyndareus was the father of Castor. Clytemnestra later married Agamemnon.Helen of troy was considered the most beutiful woman in that era.
- desired by a lot of men
- immortal due to divine lineage
- removed and largely unaffected by the outcome of the war
- beautiful
Events Before The IliadTheseus, a Greek Mythology hero, kidnapped Helen when she was only 12 years old and planned to make her his wife. She was locked away to Attica in Greece under the care of Theseus's mother but Castor and Pollux rescued her when Theseus was away. In some versions, before Helen was brought back to Sparta by her brothers, she gave birth to a daughter named Iphigenia.
Some time after returning to Sparta, King Tyndareus decided that Helen should marry already, so suitors, many of them powerful leaders, from all over Greece came and hoped to win her over. Tyndareus worried that choosing one suitor over the other will cause trouble for his kingdom since the rejected suitors might be angered by her choice. Odysseus, the king of Ithaca, was among Helen's suitors, and he proposed to Tyndareus to have all of Helen's suitors make an oath to respect her choice and support that person if ever the need arises. All the suitors agreed. Helen finally chose Menelaus, prince of Mycenae and the older brother of Clytemnestra's husband, Agamemnon. Helen and Menelaus, who eventually became the King of Sparta, had two children.
Role in The IliadUpon Aphrodite's promise of the most beautiful woman in the world to him, Paris, a prince of Troy, traveled to Sparta. Paris knew that Aphrodite kept her promise when he saw Helen. While Menelaus was in Crete, Paris took Helen back to Troy. In some versions, Helen went back to Troy with Paris willingly, seemingly under his charm. Other accounts claim that Paris took her by force.
When Menelaus returned home and discovered that Helen was gone, he called on the powerful suitors of Helen, who swore to support him when necessary. The Greeks set sail for Troy and their arrival marked the beginning of the Trojan War. It is because of this that Helen received the title of the face that launched a thousand ships.
|Diane Kruger as Helen of Troy in the 2004 movie Troy.
InfluenceThe main challenge for artists who depicted Helen of Troy through art was how to represent ideal beauty. There are numerous artworks on Helen of Troy in various scenes. Some show her fleeing from Menelaus after the fall of Troy while others show her staring boldly into his eyes. Paris's abduction of Helen is another popular motive by some early artworks, some of them depicting Helen being raped by Paris. Several movies have been made about her and the Trojan War.

Firefighters say 56-year-old Jaynie Zeigler was home alone when a neighbor heard a sound and noticed smoke about 1:45 a.m.
Fire crews rushed to 50 Beverly Dr. SW and found Zeigler deceased in her living room.
"I was devastated," said Jessica Peterson, who says she knew Zeigler as a customer at the Kwiki Mart two blocks from the home. "I talked to her nearly every day. She always was smiling and always had a really good, positive attitude."
Friends say Zeigler was a former Army drill instructor who walked on two prosthetic legs. She did not talk about how she lost her limbs.
Peterson noticed her customer, who she calls a friend, started using her wheelchair more frequently over the past few months.
"She was able to walk just fine and everything and then recently she was more disabled to her wheelchair," Peterson recalled. "She wasn't able to get around as much. I think that probably made her frustrated."
One neighbor said a wheelchair ramp had recently been installed at the front door to Zeigler's home.
Zeigler also shared that she was excited about a grant that was going to help pay for renovations to make the inside of the home more accessible.
Neighbors can't help but wonder how Zeigler's lack of mobility may have hindered her ability to escape.
While investigators have determined the fire started in the living room, they are not yet releasing information about what may have caused it.
"I can hardly look at it," says Peterson. "It makes me so sad to know she won't be there anymore."

Schoolies to receive safety warnings via mobile phones
- From: Sunday Herald Sun
- November 11, 2012
of 2
SCHOOLIES will have safety warnings sent to their mobile phones in a statewide program as coastal community leaders urge problem partygoers to stay away.
Thousands of school leavers are preparing to head beachside for end-of-year celebrations, with police ramping up patrols.
But the Sunday Herald Sun has found underage teens already flouting the law as they trawl the internet for advice on fake IDs.
Be safe and watch your mates: Schoolies safety guide
As many as 10,000 revellers will receive texts encouraging them to look out for mates, drink responsibility, use free late-night transport and consider supervised events.
The Mornington Peninsula and Surf Coast shires will co-ordinate the register along with Bass Coast, which trialed it last year.
Youth Affairs Minister Ryan Smith said the messages were an effective way to keep schoolies and locals safe.
"People should absolutely celebrate the end of their schooling - it's a great milestone - but there are a lot of ways to celebrate it safely and with respect for others," Mr Smith said.
"These are places people go with young families. And they don't want to have a bunch of younger people causing problems and making them uncomfortable." Authorities are bracing for the annual influx after the last VCE exams on November 22.
Rosebud Leading Sen-Constable Teresa Baker said extra police were being brought into the area while lifeguards would be run special patrols at Sorrento back beach.
Ragers were encouraged to go elsewhere.
"We're not a party scene and we're not promoting it as a party scene," Sen-Constable Baker said.
"We won't be tolerating any anti-social behaviour. It will be stamped out straight away."
Bass Coast community safety manager Philippa O'Halloran said the area wasn't party central either.
"It's all about enjoying the natural attractions," Ms O'Halloran said.
"It isn't really a destination for partying or nightclubs - we are very low-key."
Despite the safety push, under-age schoolies are using Facebook and online forums to get advice on obtaining fake identification.
One said she would party at licensed venues on the Gold Coast despite being too young to legally drink, friends telling her "it should be easy to get in". Others planned to drink in their hotel rooms.

Hi guys, two things have started happening in the past week to my wordpress site.
Firstly the error which is in the title
.0 */ do_action('wp_loaded'); ?> this seems to be causing problems in the back end of the site. If I make a post for instance and then hit 'Publish' it just brings up a blank page apart from that bit of code at the top. The post still happens but it just doesn't return you back where you should be.
This error is also running throughout the site on the front end and within certain boxes on your dashboard.
The second error and also the first one I found was an error about "Allowed memory size XXX exhausted.."
All these things have happened over a two day period and now im worried im going to lose stuff, or brake something. Can anyone help and also recommend a safe way of backing up all of my data. I need to upgrade to the latest wordpress but my server doesnt have the latest version of PHP yet, so the host said I need to back up and then move over to a new server.
Thanks in advance for any advice

The Maladeta plutonic complex formed during the latest stages of the Variscan orogeny. It was emplaced into the Paleozoic sedimentary sequence of the Pyrenees. The eastern part, investigated in the present study, consists of an early intrusion of cumulate gabbronorites followed in order of emplacement by the main biotite-hornblende granodiorite, which was itself intruded by two small stocks of two-mica cordierite granite. An 87Rb-87Sr isochron dates the granodiorite at 277±7 m.y. with an initial (87Sr/86Sr)o ratio of 0.7117±3. Gabbroic rocks have lower strontium initial ratios, down to 0.7092, while those of granite range from that of the granodiorite up to about 0.715. The three rock types have distinctive δ18O values: 8.7 to 9.6 for the gabbronorites, 9.4 to 10.4 for the granodiorites and 10.3 to 11.8 for the granites. Lead isotopic compositions of rocks and feldspars are all radiogenic. Feldspars give consistent Pb model ages around 280 m.y., with μ and κ values of about 9.7 and 4.05, respectively. No pristine, mantle-derived magma was found among the investigated samples and the rocks cannot be related to one another by any simple mechanism of fractional crystallization. Some type of mixing process involving two end members seems to be required: a high-18O, high-87Sr material that is clearly of crustal origin, and a lower-18O, lower-87Sr end member derived from the mantle. Examination of various mixing models does not support magma mixing nor assimilation of crustal rocks by a mafic magma. The most acceptable model involves melting at different levels of a vertically-zoned source in the continental crust; this source was formed by mixing between mantle-derived magmas and crustal metasediments. This material was apparently thickened, tectonically downwarped and partially melted. None of the Maladeta magma-types appear to have been derived at a consuming plate boundary.

Panera Bread To Open In Town Of Poughkeepsie, September 26, 2011
Nation's Leading Bakery-Cafe Opens Thirteenth Southern NY Location
Panera Bread freshly bakes more bread every day than any other bakery-cafe in the nation, serving more than 16 varieties. Freshly baked breads and bread products form the foundation of the Panera Bread bakery-cafe menu – from breakfast bagels and muffins to sandwiches, hand-tossed salads and soups served in Sourdough Bread Bowls.
With its identity rooted in handcrafted, fresh-baked, artisan bread, Panera Bread is committed to providing great tasting, quality food that people can trust. Highlighted by antibiotic free chicken, whole grain bread, select organic and all-natural ingredients and a menu with zero grams of artificial trans fat, Panera's bakery-cafe selection offers flavorful, wholesome offerings. The menu includes a wide variety of year-round favorites, complemented by new items introduced seasonally with the goal of creating new standards in everyday food choices. In neighborhoods across the country, guests are enjoying Panera's warm and welcoming environment featuring comfortable gathering areas, relaxing decor and free Internet access, provided through a managed WiFi network. At the close of each day, Panera Bread bakery-cafes donate bread and baked goods to community organizations in need.
The opening of this franchised bakery-cafe is the thirteenth in the planned growth of Panera Bread in Southern NY, following an opening in Bedford Hills in August 2010. The franchisee Take Home the Bread, LLC plans to open 10 new bakery-cafes in the area over the next five years.
"Opening a new bakery-cafe in the Town of Poughkeepsie, NY, means that we are one step closer to our goal of putting a loaf of delicious, freshly baked bread in every arm across America," said Tony Diaz, operating partner of Take Home The Bread, LLC, the franchisee. General Manager Vincent Ceccolini will be managing the Town of Poughkeepsie café. Panera is accepting quality applicants at the site.

Surface adds to the long list of MSFTs hardware failures, not to mention the software failures: Vista and W8! Long live Ballmer! Hope everyone is happy with the dividend, because that is all longs will get!
Surface Pro destroys all competition,it is quite simply the fastest,most powerful device out there,I love WIN8!
Sentiment: Strong Buy
Destroys all competition? So it should just be banned? I think it's way too early for that.
Firstly they can hardly get anyone to buy them. And until there is verifiable harm to the market the current indifference to both the Pro and the RT by both consumers and regulatory agencies should continue.
Right now anyone hoping for there to be competition with MSFT loves W8. If it starts selling that is sure to diminish.
Big selloff coming today. 26 by the end of the week.
10 years before complete failure? It will happen sooner than that, once MSFT tries to kill XP again.
" Hope everyone is happy with the dividend, because that is all longs will get!"
And, toward the end, they won't be what they are now.

Belonging to God
Belonging to God
by Charles Murphy
Msgr. Charles Murphy has written a readable reflection on Catholic spirituality that speaks directly to American sensibilities. This is mostly good news. It is good news because Murphy's book shows how wisdom from the Catholic tradition can be made accessible and practical for contemporary spiritual seekers. Murphy, pastor of Holy Martyrs Parish in Falmouth, Maine, and former rector of the North American College in Vatican City, offers a clear and balanced introduction to the spiritual life. Drawing on the insights of St. Francis de Sales and others, he writes for those who do not have a spiritual director, giving special attention to the needs of "beginners." As one who believes that few of us make it past the beginner stage in spirituality, I welcome this book and expect that many will profit from it. At the same time, I have reservations about some peculiarly American accents informing Murphy's approach, especially his basically pragmatic and optimistic outlook. The danger in such an outlook, I think, is that one might be led to believe the spiritual life is simpler and less daunting than it usually proves to be.
Murphy's forte is his anecdotal style and his ability to summarize complex concepts and processes in straightforward language, as when he explains the obscure term mystagogia. "Candidates who are baptized at Easter continue their process of initiation for a time after Easter in a period called...

WASHINGTON (AP) -- So much for pushing back the start of primary
Leapfrogging states aiming to increase their influence are
threatening to push the first GOP contests into early January.
A Florida commission is expected to announce Friday that its
presidential primary will be held Jan. 31, a move that could spark
a stampede by Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada and South Carolina.
Those states were granted special early voting status by both political
The result could be a primary season that many believe starts
too early, lasts too long and leaves voters weary long before the
November general election.
Both political parties have tried to avoid a repeat of 2008 by
delaying early presidential primaries and caucuses.

Perhaps, but before celebrating too much, remember that this will make the Democratic Party even more conservative.
Jesus Christ, go back to bed.
As DKos readers know, Sebelius is a total political rockstar - she's spent the last few years convincing repubs all over her state that they should really be dems - names people know. Looks like it worked. We'll see what happens in a couple weeks.
What is the difference between Carl Romanelli's campaign being funded by Republican interests and the Democratic party being occupied by Republicans looking to be elected?
Its not like these politicians are suddenly progressive (however that might be defined depending on which blog is speaking).
They are still going to receive financial support from the same forces that put Romanelli on the ballot. The wealthy interests that need representation in DC will work the system to their advantage.
Shuffle the cards anyway you want - it's all going to come up stacked against us until people work outside the system and stop believing the propaganda promoted by the DLC.
Which administration was it that first started the funding and promotion of abstinence only education?
Hint: it was in 1996.
"The welfare reform legislation signed into law by President Clinton in August of 1996 represents—to date—the broadest attack on the provision of comprehensive sexuality education to young people in the United States"
The best thing happening in Kansasis that wingnut-extraordinaire state Attorney General Phill Kline -- the guy who wants to rifle through Planned Parenthood medical records looking for abortions to declare to be murders -- is about to get his ass handed to him in his re-election campaign.
His opponent (soon to be replacement) is Johnson County DA Paul Morrison. Yes, he's another of those Republican-turned-Democrats. If it takes "real" Republicans coming to their senses and seeing the depths to which the monstrous progeny of the reactionary fundies, the neocons, and the antigovernment anarchists have taken their former party, I'm just fine with it. Sending Kline slithering back into whatever stinkhole he emerged from is well worth it.
Rats are deserting the sinking ship ...

Product Description
Like any great film, Viridiana reveals its depth and detail through multiple viewings. The film is scathingly critical of Catholic hypocrisy and Franco's Spain (Don Jaime's estate is a direct reflection of the country's moribund state of sociopolitical decay), and its allegorical content was not lost on Spanish authorities, who banned the film (it wasn't shown in Spain until 1977) after it won the coveted Palme D'Or at the Cannes Film Festival. In a closing stroke of genius, Buñuel skirted around his censors with a final scene even more provocative (in its subtle implications) than the sexually suggestive ending he'd originally filmed. With much to say about the conflicting nature of human desires, Viridiana may have softened over decades, but it's never lost its ability to spark debate, discussion, and rewarding analysis of Buñuel's directorial vision. --Jeff Shannon
On the DVD
The newly restored, high-definition digital transfer of Viridiana impressively maintains Criterion's exacting standards of audio-visual quality; it's a flawless transfer, with deep blacks and richly detailed clarity. The supplements include new (2006) video interviews with actress Silvia Pinal and Spanish cultural scholar Richard Porton; warmly revealing excerpts from the 1964 French TV series "Cineastes of Our Times," featuring an interview with Buñuel; and a 30-page booklet with an essay on Viridiana by Princeton film scholar Michael Wood, and a generous interview excerpt from the book Objects of Desire: Conversations with Luis Buñuel. --Jeff Shannon

Thoughts from any hack writers?
Thoughts from any hack writers?
Sweet! This might be my ticket out of sticking with old versions. Now to wait for finals to end so I can look closely at this (and other items) :-P Thanks allusion!
Now this rocks. All this while, I was a little apprehensive about using hacks because of their unsupported nature; plugins are a nicer name really :D
Ooooh, that's a most useful feature. A lot of the things people have mentioned to me about WP is that they don't like the lack of a plug-in functionality. This is a nice step in the right direction. :)
does this just include the file if it exists, or is there more to it that i'm missing?
Well there's an option you can turn on or off to prevent slowing down WP with unecessary stat calls. If the option is on then it checks for the file and includes it if it exists.
hmm. this is kinda neat, but all it really saves is adding one require call to the code..
what'd be REALLY nice is if there were some hooks that got called upon certain events which hack writers could tie into... tell WP to call my function when a certain event hits, etc..
something like.. I write a function I want to run every time a file is uploaded.. I push the function name into some hash or array, and then WP calls all the functions in a given event's array or hash whenever that event occurs..
Jaykul, you can't override base functions, but what your proposing is a good idea. The add_filter code could be adapted to add a number of event hooks throughout the WP code, allowing for some really interesting plugins or hacks. Let's say that's a version 1.1 feature.
Most hacks I've seen and could envision writing do something like this. Add functions to a file, then add the function call in your template or through add_filter. Basically this gives you a stable place to put this code and not have it overwritten, and to simplify things for hackers writing installation instructions.
So for beautifier support, you can put the add_filters in my-hacks.php, have the entire beautifier code in my-hacks.php or just include() the file, etc.
Smilies can be configured in wp-config-extras.php, but that's not really something that is encouraged per se. But in theory you could have your custom smilie array in my-hacks.php and it would overwrite the default one.
hmm thhat is good, but if you hacked alot..the file would be long..
I think that this is a very interesting idea.
I also would suggest renaming it my-plugins.php.
Why not stick with the naming scheme used throughout wordpress, and call it wp-plugins.php ? everyone would know it's "their" hacks, so the "my" doesnt really seem to be needed. Instead, it gives it an "official" touch if it's called wp-plugins, or wp-hacks..
I think renaming it wp-plugins or wp-hacks makes good sense.
Oops, that last post was me. Sorry. LOL
I think I am a little lost. how exactly will this work? do yuo enter the hack code into this file and the script just knows exactly where its suppose to go? I guess waht I am looking for is a bit more explination about my-hacks.php
Is this available in 1.0 ? And how do I use it? I don't want to change anything in the original source right now. That just doesn't work with upgrades and stuff like that.
Yeah, I could use some instruction as well. I have a function that I'd like to add [a quick XML-RPC ping], but I don't know where the hooks are to tell it what file should be edited. Specifically, I need to add the below into /wp-includes/functions.php:
function pingWondergeeks() {
// Rick King
$client = new xmlrpc_client("/ping/pingme.php?name=geekking.com", "wondergeeks.net", 80);
$message = new xmlrpcmsg("", array(new xmlrpcval("geekking.com")));
$result = $client->send($message);
if (!$result || $result->faultCode()) {
return false;
return true;
I think some documentation with examples would be called for in this area, showing best practices for forming the wp-hacks.php document.
Any takers?
I'll wing Matt an email and see what I can do.
New documentation: http://wiki.wordpress.org/index.php/my-hacks.php
where can i get a list of filter actions?
Heeey! I have an idea ...
Can we please have remove_filter ?
Then I could remove the 'default' filters and add my own instead. That would be a big help as far as making 'my hacks' work for me.
I agree remove filter is needed.
I also get "Headers allready sent" errors, each time, with each release.
SG, make sure you don't have any white space (blank lines) before or after the
<?php ?> lines.
Thanks Matt. I solved that problem by removing a hack that was giving me errors. :)
I edited my initial post. Still wondering about the question though. :)
Never mind, answered my own question. :)

Musician JJ Cale dies; wrote Clapton, Skynyrd hits
Musician JJ Cale dies; wrote Clapton, Skynyrd hits
If musicians were measured not by the number of records they sold but by the number of peers they influenced, JJ Cale would have been a towering figure in 1970s rock 'n' roll.
His best songs like "After Midnight," "Cocaine" and "Call Me the Breeze" were towering hits — for other artists. Eric Clapton took "After Midnight" and "Cocaine" and turned them into the kind of hard-party anthems that defined rock for a long period of time. And Lynyrd Skynyrd took the easy-shuffling "Breeze" and supercharged it with a three-guitar attack that made it a hit.
Cale, the singer-songwriter and producer known as the main architect of the Tulsa Sound, passed away Friday night at Scripps Hospital in La Jolla, Calif. His manager, Mike Kappus, said Cale died of a heart attack. He was 74.
While his best known songs remain in heavy rotation on the radio nearly 40 years later, most folks wouldn't be able to name Cale as their author. That was a role he had no problem with.
"No, it doesn't bother me," Cale said with a laugh in an interview posted on his website. "What's really nice is when you get a check in the mail."
And the checks rolled in for decades. The list of artists who covered his music or cite him as a direct influence reads like a who's who of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame — Clapton, Neil Young, Tom Petty, Johnny Cash, Mark Knopfler, The Allman Brothers, Carlos Santana, Captain Beefheart and Bryan Ferry among many others.
Young said in Jimmy McDonough's biography "Shakey" that Cale and Jimi Hendrix were the best guitar players he had ever heard. And in his recent memoir "Waging Heavy Peace," Young said Cale's "Crazy Mama" — his biggest hit, rising to No. 22 on the Billboard singles chart — was one of the five songs that most influenced him as a songwriter: "The song is true, simple, and direct, and the delivery is very natural. JJ's guitar playing is a huge influence on me. His touch is unspeakable."
It was Clapton who forged the closest relationship with Cale. They were in sync musically and personally. Clapton also recorded Cale songs "Travelin' Light" and "I'll Make Love To You Anytime" and included the Cale composition "Angel" on his most recent album, "Old Sock." Other songs like "Layla" didn't involve Cale, but clearly owe him a debt. The two also collaborated together on "The Road to Escondido," which won the Grammy Award for best contemporary blues album in 2008.
Clapton once told Vanity Fair that Cale was the living person he most admired, and Cale weighed the impact Clapton had on his life in a 2006 interview with The Associated Press: "I'd probably be selling shoes today if it wasn't for Eric."
That quote was typical of the always humble Cale. But while Clapton was already a star when he began mining Cale's catalog, there's no doubt the music they shared cemented his "Clapton is God" status and defined the second half of his career.
"As hard as I've tried I've never really succeeded in getting a record to sound like him and that's what I want," Clapton said in a "Fast Focus" video interview to promote "Escondido." "Before I go under the ground, I want to make a JJ Cale album with him at the helm."
Clapton described Cale's music as "a strange hybrid. It's not really blues, it's not really folk or country or rock 'n' roll. It's somewhere in the middle."
Cale arrived at that intersection by birth. Born John Weldon Cale in Oklahoma City, he was raised in Tulsa. Buffeted by country and western on one side and the blues on the other, Oklahoma offered a melting pot of styles. Cale leaned on those styles as he spent his formative years in Los Angeles and Nashville, but he also used drum machines and often acted as his own producer, engineer and session player. He'd bury his own whispery vocals in the mix, causing the listener to lean in and focus.
"I think it goes back to me being a recording mixer and engineer," Cale said in a 2009 biography on his website. "Because of all the technology now you can make music yourself and a lot of people are doing that now. I started out doing that a long time ago and I found when I did that I came up with a unique sound."
