This is a fabulous route. I can't say enough good about it. After you have crossed the creek and struggled up through the woods and a talus slope, find the lowest point on the crag. It should be pretty obvious. At the top left corner of the talus slope is where you find it. Pitch 1 - 5.6. Scramble up over broken terrain, aiming for a left facing dihedral and climb it to a small ledge at the base of a roof. Pitch 2 - 5.7. Pull around the roof to the left and continue up a left facing dihedral. Belay at another ledge and roof in the dihedral system. Pitch 3 - 5.6. Scramble to the left over easier terrain to reach the base of the final headwall. Pitch 4 - 5.7. This is the icing on the cake! See the nice pretty crack going up the steep headwall? Well, get on it. A couple of stretched-out stemming and jamming moves lead to bomber jugs and the top. Scramble west or climber's right working laterally and down, but not too soon. You can descend to either side of the rock buttress in front of you. To the right involves some down climbing, but is shorter. You should locate a fairly obvious path once you scramble down to the trees. It hugs fairly tight to the cliff as it winds its way back to the base of the cliff. See "Colorado Front Range Crags" by Peter Hubbel as a reference. It is out of print.
A standard rack is used for this route. Nothing special is needed.
Climbed this yesterday afternoon, finally. Access across Turkey Creek is great with a double log, despite the recent flooding. We did it in 2 pitches easily with a 60m rope, plus another 50 feet for the last little crux. Didn't set much pro - mostly 5.5. Communication is an issue with US 285 rush hour traffic, so shorter pitches would be better if you take a newbie. 2 hours round trip from the base of cliff. We walked off to the east. Do you need 2 ropes to rap? Anchor stations look good.
There is a rap route for those who don't like to down climb. Last I had seen, the first station was not bolted. I always found a nice, sharp piece of rock and doubled it over. rapped down about 60' to a two bolt station, then finished not to far off from where the trail meets the base of this crag. The rappel is pretty much down the Winter Route, in the book that Julian mentioned.
I climbed Lover's Leap last October but I'm not sure which route we did. I led the first pitch to a belay stance with two old bolts and a piece of green webbing. The second pitch went left by following a crack, then straight up following easier terrain to the next belay with webbing(?). The third pitch also followed easier terrain to a decent sized ledge. I led the fourth and last pitch to the summit by climbing across a slab and up to the right of a roof near an ancient bolt with a rusty chain that I clipped for the fun of it. We scrambled down (climber's right) to the bottom and relocated the trail. This is a good place to climb that is close to Denver on US Highway 285 heading south. I used a variety of small to medium cams and stoppers. One will see pieces of old webbing and an occasional bolt along the way. I would highly recommend placing your own gear and not using these ancient pieces of pro...Shane.
I think you were on a different route, Shane. This route starts at about the nadir of the rock (otherwise, it is difficult to identify from close up). Now there is a multi-bolt sport pitch, currently lists as Unknown, 5.9+, just to its left. I recall seeing some manky-looking bolts & green sling to the left of the start. Oh yeah. This can easily be done in 3 pitches.
I was definitely on a different route. We did see that bolted route to our right, but decided not to take it. We basically followed old webbing, chossy rock, an occasional crack, and easy slab to the top. The crux was at the start of the second pitch directly to the left of the green webbing (maybe 5.8, 5.7?). One could also follow a nice crack with a piton that is also located left and down of the green webbing. Tried to do that climb again in December, but was a bit too cold...Shane
DESCENT - I find it much easier and faster to walk off the top to the east; it's just a quick jaunt down slabs - to the west I found the rap route to be manky and the downclimb fuzzy with moss.
If you climb during a high traffic time (rush hours), a system of rope pulls for communication can make your life a whole lot easier, as well as saving some wear and tear on the vocal cords.
This is a fun route, altough the climbing itself is definitely not three star quality, it's a fun summit climb, and has a bit of an adventure feel. The line we followed is very obvious from the talus slope: it is the most obvious crack system which follows a plum line from the nadir of the face up to just shy of the rightmost part of the obvious notch; take a second and check it out from the talus. We began in the most obvious (largest) LF dihedral (directly below notch in pic). Turning "roofs" on the right and following the corner system. It isn't always completely obvious where to go, but I never went left, always right. Following this line, this climb could easily be done in two pitches, we nearly did, but I ended up belaying right below the final crack because i had used my .75 Camalot already (looked perfect for the crux, and was). This Eldo-esque crack is the only 5.7 move(s) on the entire climb...it's great! We walked off to the east down the slabs and such, took a while longer than the other descents, but is kinda pretty and never really hard to find your way. The rap anchor we saw from the climb definitely looked manky, ie. ratty slings, American Death Triangle, and probable quarter inchers.
Climbed this route on 9/05/02. Quite enjoyable, nice views, and we didn't see another soul all day. For the approach: after parking in the nearest pull-out on the south side of 285, head east from the lot about 200ft (between the river-bed and guard-rail) until you come down into the dry river-bed. Go directly across to a path where someone has been nice enough to place a fixed line with knots to assist in climbing the southern bank (very useful when coming back). There are other trails up this bank but they are all very steep and loose. Follow the trail to the talus and go up the talus to the base of the climb (just right of an obvious bolted line). The climb takes pro very well, and the first two pitches offer some decent climbing on moderate terrain. The last pitch is short, but very aesthetic, and offers one challenging move. We placed a set of new slings and screw-locks up and to the left of this finish (they will probably be pirated before long, but hopefully not, because the rappel stations on the face below are well-bolted and this is by far the easiest way off the climb). This descent requires two-ropes for all three raps and goes down the face to the left of the climb (from the slings to a three-bolt station, to another three bolt station, to the ground). The best description of this climb is in the new book "Serious Play" by Steve Dieckhoff.
Another thing to mention about this climb is that it stays in the shade. We did it yesterday, 10/6/02 and I could see my breath and couldn't feel my fingers. Great exposure, especially through the crux on P5! Gotta admit that the crux was a bit intimidating. Once I stemmed out far enough, the holds were all there, just a matter of reaching them. A fun, easy route!
Neat climb so close to the city.Radios would be nice. I thought the protection on the first 100 ft. was a little sparse. I bet you could do the whole climb in two long pitches. There is a new set of bolts on the ledge below the final 5.7 headwall crack, just above a small alcove. And as mentioned there's a set of new bolts and rap rings at the top (just left of the crack).
A fun variation is to start with the bolted line just left of the start of this route ( 9+) to it's bolted belay. Cut right back to Lover's Leap for p.2, follow it to the next good ledge. Cut back left on an obvious ramp and climb an awesome face about 20' left of the cracks on L.L. it's about 9+ using small TCUs and a piton to a bolt belay. Last pitch heads straight up around a small roof and through a fun face to the summit and could be combined with the 3rd pitch. This puts you to the left of the fixed rap anchor and adds a lil' spice....
Sounds like there's a newly installed rap route? Anyone know how it goes? Thanks!
Great first lead (at least the first two pitches are) for someone getting into trad climbing. However, bring plenty of slings as there can be pretty severe rope drag. Also, bring two-way radios since the hi-way noise can get loud. The entire climb can be done with 2 #1 and 2 #2 cams and one full set of stoppers. There are new belay bolts in all three pitches. Bring two ropes for a two pitch rap or one 60 meter rope for a three pitch rap. Wear a helmet for the rockfall from above.
This is probably one of the closest crags from town. Overall, it was a really good route. Solid holds except for some weeds in some of the cracks which is probably explained by the lack of traffic. Locating the start of the trail that takes you up and through the forest to the base of the cliff started to get snafu'd, so after 10 minutes of looking for it we just started hiking up the thing. Hike the boulderfield if you don't locate the trail, it's much easier, since it's pretty steep loose dirt. The route can be done in two pitches, but we did it in 3. The 3rd pitch crux requires stemming up a perfect hand crack to the summit. You'll see bolts to the climbers left on each pitch which is the 5.9 route. If no one's on it, you can rap this, but it seemed to me you'd need two ropes. I don't think one will cut it. Or just walk off, we went east, stay close to the cliff and it'll drop you right back at the base; however, west is probably the better way to go. Enjoy.
I'm not sure why you would break this climb into 5 pitches. I'll echo what has been previously stated, I think 2, possibly 3 if you want to belay before the crux, is best. To me, the route seemed to be a lot of 5.5 climbing with a short 5.8 crux. I wish the final crack extended the entire climb, because it's great, it really makes the entire climb. To descend, we did a double rope rappel off the new fixe ring anchors, just to the left of the finish, to the set of bolts that are the belay for the first (or second???) pitch. One gray and one red hanger. From here we traversed climbers right to the obvious rap anchor with blue webbing in the blocky gully. A final short rap gets you to the ground. At risk of starting controversy, the bolted belays (without rings or quick links to rap off of) seemed pointless. There are plenty of options to place gear anchors. I by no means suggest they should be removed, just making an observation. Next time I'm in the area I will add quick links to the midway bolts so they at least serve a purpose as a rap station.
Just so everyone knows, I did this rout yesterday and it still has those bolted rap stations, but going from station two to three from the top is longer than 100 feet. (i.e. can't be done with one 60m rope) I figured this out the hard way, it's short by about 10-15 feet. Just a heads up. Besides that it's a great route to haul your girlfriend up and propose to her at the top. : ) Dave of the Kirtlands
5 pitches? Climbed 45m to a set of anchors on the right 5.5-5.6. went 40m to the headwall 5.5. climbed the headwall 5.7 15m. call it 2 1/2.
You can do Lover's Leap with just one rope. Last year, in early summer of '03, myself and my partner made 2 rappel stations to the right of the Lover's Leap, 5.7. Go to the top and find the tree with dark colored slings and webbing on it and a quick link. Rap towards the cross and follow down. You will see 2 chained rap stations. This way you don't have to bring up 2 ropes.
Wow, very fun route. For an intermediate lead or a beginner follow, this route is great on its own or as an alpine training route. The right trending crack is easy to find up there, just pick the line going up from the lowest point on the rock. The first pitch is really easy. There is a great belay ledge on the first pitch right after the first big roof (about 1/2 rope length up). the ledge is so sexy it is hard to pass up, but don't use it! Another 25 feet up or so are the first set of bolts. They are just to the right of the route a bit, on a ledge. The second pitch gets a little more interesting, 5.6 maybe. Stay on that until you hit a cave with bolts. You could build a condo on this ledge. The crux is right above the belay and felt almost 5.8 to me. Just a couple moves but very fun. Nice thing is it protects really well. Very fun finish. We rappeled down from the bolts at the top with two ropes. This great rap line brought us directly on top of the first anchor bolts. One more rap and it's time for beer in Morrison.
2 pitches plus a short crux, you can get the first pitch at a soft 5.7 if you start just to the right of Unknown 5.9 boltline. The start of the first pitch is what gets everyone baffled that are new to the climb; if you go for an obvious crack (Where Tunas Flop .10b - aptly named), or go way right (5.4 to 5.5 - possible rope drag) you can have some troubles. Start to the right of the bolt line, look up to see a goal post in the top of the rock, that's your goal. Double length slings on the second pitch are key to reducing drag. A newer 2-bolt rap anchor on top offers great rap position, but stance sucks, back to first ledge, 2 @ 60M ropes. The final rap, a single 60M will make it to the ground if you don't use the stopper knots, otherwise it's an easy 8' downclimb. Overall, this is a great first multi-pitch outing experience if you stay on route.
Great climb with an alpine feel! I agree that it's very Eldo-esque. I fell at the crux when I flubbed the sequence but there's bomber gear at your waist and I got it second try. It's easy to plug the best jams with your gear, but you really don't need the crack to pull the crux - there's a bomber (for 5.7+) underclingy/sidepull-ish thingy that you can pseudo-layback and walk your feet up the crack until you can reach a decent hold with your right hand. Only other thing that folks should be aware of is that although the climbing is easy after the crux (5.2 or .3???) the next semi-decent gear is at belay-ledge-fall) distance from the crux pro. I didn't notice this until I was belaying my second up. Not worth an "s" or "R" but worth knowing. Crux pro is a #2 and a #1 Camalot or similar size. (looked a bit big to me for an orange and red Alien) We rapped from the 2 new Fixe' ring bolts at the top. Here's the sequence... 1 - Short rap from the top to the P2 belay (also 2 bolts). 2- 55m-ish meter rap to the P1 belay - 3 bolt station on the left (there is also a 2-bolt chain station at about 35m on the right). If you want to bring a retrieval cord rather than a second rope, that worked for us for this rap. 3 - 30m rap to the ground. Mark's beta on route-finding is right on, go for the goal posts! :^D Plus when in doubt, go right until you can go up a corner (where the gear is). As for the start, there is a big pine tree that kind of stands a bit off by itself - we strated just above that.
A good route indeed. Monty offered some good tips, I updated my post on the crag page.
As of 5-6-06 the slings for the first rap off the boulder on the right side of Lover's Leap have been replaced. I went up earlier in the week, topped out and walked to the right to get to the boulder that we have been rapping off of for years only to find the slings had been cut and not replaced... Bastards! I replaced the slings and also kicked down about 20 cairns that have never been up there before. Who ever is doing this stop. We didn't need your help before and we don't need it now. This rap route can be done with 1 60m.
I climbed this route today, it was a lot of fun...the approach was easier then that of Cob Rock IMO (and the creek was completely dry). The route is a little bit over rated in my opinion most of it felt about 5.5, aside from the crux I felt I should have free soloed it(aside from a move or two on the lower sections). I found the crux to be pretty easy once I got the gear, I didn't want to pull into the crux without getting some gear though (factor 2 falls are not good). So I down climbed a little till I found a nice yellow Metolius cam placement, which I made multi-directional with a green Alien. Then, I climbed into the crux but didn't find a really comfy stance so I got a little burned getting my #1 Camalot in and down climbed to a rest once I got it set. Then, I climbed through the crux to the top bolts without placing another piece the whole pitch (or 1/4 pitch is more like it). I climbed pitch one until the bolts on the right on the nice ledge/stance (probly 30 m). Pitch 2 till the cave with the bolts (probly 30 m) and then the crux pitch (10 m?). Could this be done in 1 pitch with a 70M? This route can't be 450ft. The rock can be a bit chossy in places, but the climbing is easy, so it's not a big deal if you are careful (my partner and I had no helmets). We rapped off of the tree then to the bolts to the north and west (I think it was the 50M rap route because the chains looked seldom used and rusty.) Ps. does anyone have any more route info for this formation? I would be interested (there are some nice looking cracks in the center headwall of the buttress). Also I talked to one of the two other parties on the cliff today who did the 5.9 sport route left of the start of the 5.7 and they said it was sandbagged in their opinion and recomended trying it but to bring some small cams to supplement the bolts.
Jay - with respect to the other lines, the problem I see is the amount of lichen on the rock, loose rock, runout sections, and unknown anchoring as to why more people haven't offered beta. The standard route is the best protected line on the rock, with the crux section offering adequate protection so you won't hit the ledge if you blow it or pump out; I've climb it enough to know you don't have to runout the last section & the vector to the new bolts can be protected once you exit for the second. It's a fun route for taking someone new to multi-pitch climbing. However, most everything else on this rock is a no-fall climb; meaning you probably will hit something if you fall while leading. The bolt line, Unknown 5.9 (someone must know something about the FFA of this line), is a mixed pro protected slab climb -- bring blue & black Aliens (or equiv.) or you will take a good sized fall & hit something; the second pitch has a couple of 5.9 moves but mostly goes into 5.8R with lichen covered rock to a 3 bolt anchor. The center line is Where Tunas Flop @ .10b; I was going to work on this summer & see about what condition the rock, anchoring, & fixed protection are in, but haven't had time. Also, a dihedral route more towards the East aspect, Ye Olde Hysterical, also at .10b & don't know what is offered for anchoring & fixed pro there either. Hubbel's book reported the parties as Kevin Smythe & Terry Smith '87 and Maurice Reed & partner '75, respectively. (See the main crag page -- I've updated beta photo & some info 11-26-08).
Thanks Mark, You will have to let me know how Where Tunas Flop goes, I thought I saw a more clean line to the left or east of the Standard Route. seemed like some nice asthetic cracks run up the main headwall to the east of the Standard. I noticed them from the top at first and when looking at them again from the car it seemed like a line went up to them, I figured it might be Where Tunas Flop. Keep us posted.
Climbed this rock today and managed to get well off-rote to the left onto what I think was one of the 5.9 variations before we finally traversed back right and joined up with the standard route on the final headwall/crack pitch. I thought the final pitch was solid 5.8, but I don't have a whole lot of experience with cracks, and I was spent from getting off route. The crack was also a bit wet which was surprising for this time of year. Either way- good, fun climb. Tried the walk off to the east and ended up bushwacking for a good 45 minutes back to the base. The next time I will rap for sure. Also, the language above in the pitch descriptions is misleading as it says several times "climb up and left" and clearly you need to stay trending up and to the right for the easiest line.
Two of my friends and I climbed Lover's Leap yesterday and rapped down the right side face starting at the little tree. It held fast, and there is no sign of problems whatsoever. He had placed the yellow sling on it quite awhile back, and it is still there along with the blue one? Maybe I am talking about a different rap station tree, but it is definitely secure. I mentioned to him reading previously about the tree being loose here on Mountain Project forums, and he stated that it was not acccurate. Please tell me which tree anchor you are referring to? He is going to take his Hilti up there and make some permanent anchors for rappelling by the "tree". Thanks a bunch.
A shoe-sized rock landed 3 feet away from me at the bottom of the last rap, keep your helmet on! Fun route, the 2nd pitch is long and fun! I have only lead a few 5.8s and this crux move felt as hard, but the gear is so excellent (reach way up and place a cam, you are basically TRed ) that I would not let this discourage a 5.7 leader or 5.6 for that matter. It's one move and you are over, I am 6' tall, if you are taller this will be easier. If you like this, you will like Mount Thorodin. I almost didn't give it 3 stars because of the traffic noise from 285, but it is a fun climb.
While enjoying the view on the middle rappel station after a beautiful climb, I took a rock the size of my fist to the collar bone. Hanging from a sling, staring at the bolt I was clipped into, I thought: 'next time I'm using a locker'. A few minutes later we pulled the rope, and I took another rock on top of the helmet. The next weekend we pulled our rappel rope at the third station and it stuck about 50' up- another adventure after the day was 'already over'. I recommend pulling the rope as far to the right (facing the cliff) to avoid crimping it in a boulder that leans against the wall. Had to leave a cam behind to rap from, but retrieved it uneventfully a few days later. Going back for more, two bio-hazard warnings admonished us about large amounts of blood on the first ledge (you could hear the flies before seeing anything). This route brings more to the table than your average 5.7 crag.
If you do the direct start, this route can be done in one pitch with a seventy meter rope. With a sixty, you can climb to the bolted anchor below the final cruxy, though quite short, headwall pitch. It certainly does not need to be done in four pitches. Three maybe if your doing the alternate bolted first pitch, which is nice.
Just got off this route on a beautiful day. If you have a 60m rope I'd recommend doing this in two pitches. There are two great ledges half way up with plenty of great spots to build an anchor. The final pitch isn't as tough as it looks. Little awkward feet, but trust your holds, smear a little bit and you're golden. Kept a leisurely pace and were up and down in two hours. Great climb, 5 minutes from work. Love Colorado.
Three pitches not four or five. For anyone under 5ft 4in, the top pitch is tricky. The hand jams are spread out and hard to reach. Just a heads up.
I have climbed this many times. It's no harder than 5.5 except for the last short pitch which is 5.7+. I free soloed it in 2007 and went right to avoid crux.
Climbed this last week. Good, decent climb. Just be aware of loose rock. Also had a considerable amount of rope drag climbing the second pitch. I placed a piece down low and even though I put a runner on it, it would have been better if I had run it out about 15 feet from the start to place my first piece. Just remember that if you do the climb.
My climbing partner and I did this twice last weekend, the first time had to bail at the 2nd belay station and had to leave a couple biners. Came back the next day and added chains and quick links to the 2nd station so now you can rap safely from there. By attaching two ropes w/ a double fisherman's, you can rap from the end of the 2nd all the way down to the first station, it makes for a pretty quick descent.
I did this yesterday and had great time...the above comments helped us quite a bit! But would add this to Keven Craig's comment of 4/21/2006: 1 - Short rap from the top to the P2 belay (also 2 bolts). (NOTE: the bolts at the top of climb to rap back down to the bolts at the 'cave' are quite exposed! Only felt safe getting to them on belay.) 2- 55m-ish meter rap to the P1 belay - 3 bolt station on the left (there is also a 2-bolt chain station at about 35m on the right). If you want to bring a retrieval cord rather than a second rope, that worked for us for this rap. (NOTE: my partner and I agreed the rap to this 2-bolt chain station from the 'cave' bolts needs to be done with a 70m rope, which just reached. A 60m would be too short!) 3 - 30m rap to the ground. (Agree!) --Rick Casey
A 0.75 protects the crux super well, and once again if you're shorter, it will be a bit more challenging. Us tall folk can just reach for the good hold.

She hit the air at age 24 should change the face of TV talk shows.
As she brought in a new audience of younger viewers.
And who could forget her shows rallying cry.
Yeah now he -- -- this month for the new.
TV talk show so how does she plan to stand out among all the competition.
Let's ask actress author and.
Talk show host Ricki Lake so don't worry -- -- -- -- Rick.
It's it's hilarious he is go -- implies that I should leave for a -- -- -- -- happening and it's great to see you don't you think you're calling this new talk show Ricki -- 2.0 yes how will it be different from the -- well it's different because I'm different you know I I say you -- -- that you're not -- and you're in the ninety's.
Neither mind you know we've evolved we've grown up a little bit you've matured.
And so this show is a reflection of who I am -- in my life since certainly is -- I did back and it was that it was -- that younger generation.
And now it's just a little bit much mature smarter version of the.
Wait a minute on -- more mature than this -- and not to say let's take a look back at the old Ricky.
Yeah exactly good -- -- buying them.
Do you feel like you're tired and that really -- on the end yeah.
Yeah what do you -- what you see moments like that.
I I I look back at those moments and I -- I can't believe that was my life you know I was sort of -- amateur anthropologist looking at.
Crazy human behavior many moments in his mind.
She was just one hot mess that one.
Indeed it was classic it's classic ninety's big time craziness.
I mean I look I love that -- -- high level.
We did with you know teenage drug addiction and and pregnancy and we did a lot of good stuff for the show.
I would now need doing something else you know will you have moments like that on the news show it's safe to say -- not have someone come on and -- summons with golf no I don't think in less in I can't imagine -- -- show but we're doing shows on.
Issues that matter to women -- she's -- you know whether it's.
Finding love staying happily married having kids balancing it all dealing with aging reversing aging process weight issues.
Anything and everything a woman 25 to 54 relates to you and -- -- is -- year wheel house you are have always been relayed a bowl.
I mean I think if I hadn't -- thing that's trouble that they have people.
Finding non threatening a sign that no she could be my neighbor she could be -- I grew up with and -- very much what you see is what you get you know I've been around for 25 years they grow up watching me hairspray and that of course I show and -- make documentaries about women's issues and I'm.
I care at the world now at this time in my life that I had then I did when I was in my twenties I didn't have a point of -- back then and I feel like -- -- he get wiser you also learn from mistakes and I feel like.
I'm not coming on to the show to tell people how to live their life I haven't figured out for myself but I want to have a platform where there is Smart contents for women.
That you know we're all being that stop provoking it's making -- see things a different -- a different way and learning from each other and have a good time I'm -- said this is not gonna -- -- show you're not just an interview celebrities who do you have a dream -- that I'm for it always joked back in the day like in denying that it's -- who would you want to play Chelsea Clinton -- -- fascinated about her life and -- -- So it's a graceful person going through that crazy life of being in the White House is -- and we have a specific person for say I love people -- I'm curious about every one.
And I'm curious about the every person not -- the famous person we do you have high profile people on.
First -- when it matters with the subject that we're talking about when it makes sense for instance -- Mark Ballas danced with the stars my dear friend.
He was on last week for a really special show that was the energy to my heart.
Surviving suicide and his uncle had had committed suicide -- he has since started a foundation which is not something I knew about.

The perennial question on forums, in person, in emails, and at client meetings… Which is better, film or digital? With its inevitable followup, which do you choose to use for X, or Y shot.
And the answer is, like with so many things, it depends. Better at what? Better for whom?
I've touched briefly on this before. (Film is not dead) and how for certain photographic needs it may just be perfect. But what I didn't explain why it may be perfect for your needs too… so more detail is in order.
So first. What are the major factors influencing my decision to use either a digital solution or a film solution for a client need.
- Timeframe and Workflow
- Aesthetic
- Technical Requirements and Merit
- Budget
Lets tackle each in turn, starting from the top.

Membranes protect the brain and spinal column from harmful particles that might be circulating in the blood. How does the fungus get past the blood–brain barrier?
The fungi were inoculated adjacent to this barrier but it is still a bit of a mystery how they were able to translocate from outside the membranes into and beyond the membranes.
There are a couple of theories. One is that the fungi begin to multiply in a secluded space, then they kind of eat their way through the membranes. Another hypothesis is: Could the inoculation have nicked the membrane and provided a microscopic mode of access? Practitioners who perform these procedures say this happens very rarely, but it remains to be seen.
People who die of the infection will receive postmortem examinations—autopsies. Careful study will help us understand what happened in this circumstance and how to prevent this from happening in the future.
What treatment options are available?
There are two major drugs, called amphotericin B and voriconazole. Both of those drugs are effective if we get in early. They are given intravenously initially, and then we hope we can transition to oral variations. They have substantial side effects, and we have to walk a kind of tightrope to treat the patient without damaging the kidneys or the liver.
This is all new territory for all of us, so we will learn as we go how completely we can treat these patients and how quickly or slowly it takes them to get better. We know that it is much slower than the treatment of bacterial meningitis.
Could you get fungal meningitis from an injection in locations other than adjacent to the spinal cord—the knee or shoulder, for example?
We know that some of these steroid vials were injected into the knees and shoulders and other joints for people who had painful inflammation in those joints. We anticipate that in the course of this outbreak we will discover people who developed infections in those joints. But those infections would not then cause meningitis.
How could the fungus have contaminated the medication?
All pharmaceutical manufacturers should adhere to good manufacturing practices and guidelines. We don't know what went wrong, but certainly some of those practices were likely not adhered to and that opened the door for contamination. We'll have to wait and see what the investigation tells us.
Are epidural steroid injections safe from other facilities?
Yes. Steroid preparations from other manufacturers are safe, and they can continue to be used. If you received an injection from one of those, you need not worry.
Do you think this outbreak should prompt a change in how compounding facilities are overseen?
I think these compounding pharmacies have fallen into a gap within our regulatory framework. I daresay we will see congressional hearings that address that. My own thought is that the Food and Drug Administration needs to be given explicit authority, and it needs to be given the appropriate resources so it can do the job. I think the whole role of these compounding facilities in our society and our medical care system will come under close examination.
How much longer will this outbreak last? When do we know it has run its course?
Sadly, we will see more cases. The incubation interval—the interval between the exposure, the inoculation and the onset of symptoms—can be quite prolonged. We initially thought it might extend as long as a month. But just recently it has been suggested that it can go beyond that—two months, maybe even three months. As the outbreak evolves and we gather new information, we'll get a better idea, but for the next several weeks we will continue to see, unfortunately, new patients identified and needing therapy.

Gaz (Robert Carlyle) and Dave (Mark Addy) are two former steelworkers in the British industrial town of Sheffield who have been devastated by the economic downturn in their community. Gaz is threatened with losing visitation rights with his son if he can't pay his child support, while Dave feels emasculated by his inability to support his wife. One day, Gaz stops by a local pub for a drink and is told it's women only tonight -- the Chippendales male exotic dancing troupe is playing, and they are demanding a hefty cover charge. Gaz decides there's nothing a bunch of pantywaists from America can do that he and his pals can't do better, and decides to form his own crew of male strippers, called "Hard Steel." However, the local talent pool leaves a bit to be desired. Gaz isn't bad looking, but Dave is a bit heavy and very self conscious about it. Horse (Paul Barber) was probably hot stuff at Soul Night in the mid-70's, but his joints don't move like they used to. Guy (Hugo Speer) can't dance to save his life, but makes the troupe because ... well, let's say he and Dirk Diggler would have a lot to say to each other. Lomper (Steve Huison) is sometimes too busy attempting suicide to practice. And Gerald (Tom Wilkinson), their choreographer, isn't much on male exotic dancing -- ballroom dancing is more his speed. While "Hard Steel"'s performances are more amusing then enticing, for the first time since they lost their jobs the men have a reason to get up in the morning; joining the group has given them a circle of friendship, and a renewed sense of purpose. Combining broad comedy with believable and well-drawn characters, The Full Monty was a major box-office hit both in England and the United States and was nominated for Academy Awards as Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Original Screenplay. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide Bend It Like Beckham An independent-minded young woman discovers the joys of football, much to her family's chagrin, in this upbeat British comedy drama. Jess Bhamra (Parminder Nagra) is an 18-year-old growing up in West London, where her family has taken every effort to stay in touch with its Indian heritage. Jess' father and mother (Anupam Kher and Shaheen Khan) are after their daughter to go to law school, learn to cook a traditional Indian dinner, and settle down with a nice Indian boy -- the latter of which is high on the agenda of her older sister Pinky (Archie Panjabi), who is soon to wed her longtime beau Teetu (Kulvinder Ghir). However, her family is unaware that Jess has a secret passion -- football (or soccer, as it's known in North America). While Jess' enthusiasm for football star David Beckham is obvious, given the fact his photos cover the walls of her room, her parents don't know that in her spare time she likes to play a friendly game in the park with some of the boys in the neighborhood. One day, while Jess and her pals kick the ball around, she meets Jules (Keira Knightley), who is quite impressed with Jess' skills. Jules plays with a local semi-pro women's football team, the Hounslow Harriers, and she thinks Jess has what it takes to make the team. Jess knows that her parents would never approve of their daughter playing football, so she doesn't tell them, and starts spinning an increasingly complex series of lies as she tries to keep up a double life as a student and a footballer. Jess soon discovers a number of her new friends have their own problems to overcome; Jules dreams of playing pro ball in America, but has to deal with her stubborn and disapproving mother (Juliet Stevenson), while Joe (Jonathan Rhys Meyers), Hounslow's Irish coach, still struggles with the disappointment of a career as a professional athlete which was

Above, March 13th. The fava beans were planted and tucked in behind their chicken wire.
Last night, while our Easter leg of lamb rested in the apartment below, I went up to the roof and picked the first tender leaves and sappy stems for our salad.
Picked some pea shoots, too.

GTL's "Together Tucson" Community Picnic
Monday, May 16th, 2011Greater Tucson Leadership's Community Picnic
Saturday, May 21 · 9:00am – 12:00pm
University of Arizona Mall
Created By Greater Tucson Leadership
The Greater Tucson Leadership (GTL) organization invites Tucsonans to grab a picnic blanket, pack their favorite breakfast and come to the University of Arizona Mall on Saturday, May 21 from 9 am – Noon for Tucson's largest community picnic, Together Tucson.
The event, hosted by GTL, has been created to tap into the community spirit and kindness that followed the January 8 shooting tragedy when strangers assembled together at the UMC memorial. Attendees can renew feelings of togetherness, and their intentions to make Tucson a better place by eating and conversing together, listening to speakers and enjoying music and entertainment.
There will be a variety of activities for children and adults, including a volunteer festival to promote community service opportunities for families and individuals. Attendees can make their own mark on Tucson with the creation of a tile to be included in a public art mosaic installation as part of a future Tucson road improvement project. The mosaic theme is "Commit to Kindness" and is a project from the Ben's Bells organization.
The event will feature speaker, Ron Barber, Congresswoman Giffords' staff member who was injured in the shooting. Mr. Barber will provide an update on the status of the Fund for Civility, Respect and Understanding, the fund he established, as well as the other memorial funds that have been created.
Dr. Peter Rhee, the UMC trauma surgeon that treated Congresswoman Giffords, will also speak about the needs and benefits of community volunteerism and leadership.
In addition to fostering community, the event will also entertain with fun for people of all ages. There will be music from Jovert, the Tucson High Steel Drum band, raffle prizes and activities for children. Attendees should plan to bring their own picnic meal and a blanket or chairs for seating.

Hey its me again!
While i am still failing in writing a encoded x264 video to file (as you can read here > http://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=534) i get another problem on another task. My goal is to stream (luckily dont need to write a frame) the encoded videoframes via RTSP (live555) to a android phone. For VLC this is working so far without the header-information (sps / pps) but on android the media player dont accept my videostream.
Since i didnt know how to set up a working x264 configuration (in c-code on up-to-date build) without deprecated header files which i cant translate into newer ones i m using a default codec-configuration via avcodec_get_context_defaults3.
This is where it becomes complicated: i need the sps and pps from the default codec configurations in a byte array (so something like uint8_t* spsData, int spsSize, uint8_t* ppsData, int ppsSize).
One way i figured out is to parse the AVCodecContext.extradata into that informations using weired and ugly functions like that (http://cgit.lscube.org/cgit.cgi/feng/tr ... 264.c#n218). I guess i will never get into that.
So my question: is there a easy - or better 'easier' way to get those informations?

//Field report: 2540:
A small group of ships, consisting of the UNSC Feral (frigate), the UNSC Pilum (frigate), and the UNSC Darkened Knife (destroyer), were deployed to the colony Stigma Prime to aid in the evacuation of the colony. When they arrived however they found the colony was already under siege by the covenant forces. The ships were soon engaged, losing the Feral in the first few opening salvos. The Feral was able to deploy numerous ODST squads before the reactor was breached by a plasma lance. One of these squads, Hydra squad, made crashdown in one of the suburbs just outside the capitol city with a simple mission, get to the center and help the evacuation. But as we all should know too well by now, this plan never survived contact with the enemy. After a few run ins the squad was forced to abandon that goal to get out to a point where they could be dusted off, now this is where my report may get a little strange as there were some recently discovered monoliths---//

History: Born on Madrigal in 2512 Marcus grew up with his family around the capital city, that is until the Covenant attacked Harvest. Quickly fleeing the planet before the alien fleet arrived he and his family found refuge in the Epsilon Eridani system. Spending what little remaining childhood he had jumping from refugee shelter to refugee shelter on Reach Markus was ever aware of the genocidal campaign that the Covenant was leading. Running away and using forged documents he joined the UNSC at the age of seventeen. As he was going through basic he was first introduced to the ODST lifestyle when he and his training squad were set into a mock battle against a rookie squad of the drop marines. They lost, horribly. After that he found himself drawn to the drawn to the ODST, even going so far as to volunteer as soon as he was able.
He was first assigned to Havoc squad and fought in the battle of Erianus where he discovered firsthand the killing power of the Covenant and the mercilessness with which they glassed the planet. He was transferred to Shatter squad a year later and took part in the final act of the retaking of Harvest. This is where he cracked his visor when a plasma explosive ripped apart the pod in front of him just before impact, sending a piece of shrapnel rocketing into his pod that made him land at an odd angle and smashed his face against the door. After that battle he was finally given command of Hydra squad and has been leading it now for 9 years.
Miscellaneous: His personality has been described as Friendly, professional, and ruthless when the situation required it

I'm interviewing for a new job, and an important factor in my decision is how life will be as a bicycle commuter. I've experienced both ends of the spectrum and my basic concerns are 1) indoor/safe parking (racks? lockers? cubicle?), 2) shower availability (gym too?), and 3) general corporate/personnel attitude towards bike-commuting people. The companies I'm mainly curious about (right now) are Xilinx, Intel, nVidia, Altera, Cisco, and Varian Medical (Milpitas and Palo Alto). If you work for one of these companies (or want to rave about your own; I'm in embedded systems software/management specializing in medical and industrial applications) then please let me know what to expect. I know you're out there 'cuz I've met some of you on the road! Thanks in advance.
P.S. Route-wise I live in Santa Clara near San Tomas at Homestead.
Personally I see, next to
Personally I see, next to location, access to showers being the absolute most important item. Would be so nice if such availability at the work place could be made more uniform. Parking out of the sun would be next on my list.
Bike friendly work places
Juniper networks is bike and transit friendly. There is a gym with showers. I park my bike on a rack at the botom of the stairs but there are also bike lockers and a bicycle shelter for the newer buildings. For the companies in Palo Alto, the town is in general very bike friendly but i would stay off el camino personally.
Near the trail
Arista Networks is right on the San Tomas Aquino Creek Trail, just north of Old Mountain View-Alviso Road. There is a shower and indoor bike parking at the top and bottom of the stairs, plus at the bottom of the elevator run.
No gym that I know of in the current facility, but I would not be at all surprised if one were planned in the new facility, being built just across the street.
HP Bike Friendliness
HP is very bike-friendly - of course some locations are better than others. HP Palo Alto has bike lockers and bike racks plus showers. It's also close to the delightful trail through Bol Park (following the old railroad route) that provides a great connection to Foothill Expressway. Seeing the donkey(s) and chickens on the way to work is wonderful!

so i took old broken bluetooth headset (that my ex broke...bla bla ) and hacked it to include a stereo jack - and now she just plugs it in and plays the tunes(audio streaming) :)
Future improvements:
1. Write a computer program to include voice control so she can just change music or switch of the computer off from her room using a voice command.
2.Hack the stereo to charge the bluetooth headset without unpluging it. (she probably wont let me do that lol )
Step 2: Items needed
1. Bluetooth headset
2.Stereo jack(3.5mm)
3.Soldering iron and wire
5.Hot glue gun
4.Thin wire
5.General tools - e.g wire stripper
Step 6: ...
- bridging the top 2 connections for left and right(black wire ) - then ground wire on third connection (white wire)
This is because the bluetooth headset has only two wires(mono output instead off stereo left and right )
*You might also want to snip off the microphone wires for privacy - but I didn't because I actually need that microphone for future hacks
Step 7: ...
Step 8: ...
be very careful because you might end up pulling the wires off like I did
Step 10: Finaly
Turn it on and pair it to your computer
Play some music
1-40 of 114 | Next » |
If the complaint is that after you connect it, your music does not come out, then that is a setting (or even limitation) of your phone. Phones expect a "headset" to be used for phone calls, not music, and may not even support playing anything other than phone calls through them. check your phone settings and see if there is an option for "primary sound device". If not, your phone will only understand how to send music through something it understands as headphones, the headphone jack, or an A2DP bluetooth device (stereo bluetooth for music).
thanks in advance
dex3844, I applaud the spirit!
(but there's a problem with implementation : ) )
The most obvious being that it's not longer a stereo, so we ought to call it "on her mono" as opposed to "on her stereo" :) Seriously though, you're not supposed to just bridge the left and right channels. It's a task that requires an op amp and some circuitry but at the very least there should be resistors from the common wire to both left and right. I think in 10K range but you may need to play with the values in attempt to mitigate the impedance mismatch between the stereo's output and the bluetooth's mic. Which mismatch might also explain the bad quality. Also, a phone headset (BT or otherwise) would only be designed to cover frequency range of 300 to 3,400Hz which is a FAR cry from what you need to actually enjoy the output of that stereo (I mean, mono :) )
Anyhow, keep up great job hacking things, I'm with you on that!
I re-read my comment and it made no sense to me either :) , so I had to draw it. All three resistors are 10K or can try a few values as low as 600Ohm if the volume is too low at 10K. This is what I meant:
and as for the impendance mismatch - the stereo has its own amp and eq - so wudnt that kind of match the mic? (hey am only 1st year electronics so go easy on me lol )
-i also think the frequecy range accounts for the bad quality
thanks for the insight :)
Actually, you are correct - you're taking the output after the stereo's amp, not the line level output. In that case the proper solution would be even more complicated :) - you'd need transformers to de-couple the channels from one another.
You're not supposed to just bridge the left and right channels because you're then connecting outputs of two different amplifiers. So a situation may arise where the left channel is trying to drive it's speaker (headphone's earplug) low while the other one would at the same time try to drive it's speaker (earplug) high. In the end you'll overload both amps and you'll get neither correct high nor low.
If you have those resistors in place, at the very least that would assure that the amplitudes of signals (low and high) are separated by whatever is the voltage drop on those resistors. In other words, the low would still inhibit the high but just not as much as when you just bridged them.
As far as trying to match impedances, the difference is so big that probably no passive circuitry would do it anyhow: the headphones are in 40Ohm range whereas the electret mic of that Bluetooth headset is in 10K+ range.
So, try to play with those resistors to see what's the best quality / channel separation you can get, keeping in mind that the limitation of the phone line bandwidth set forth some 100+ years ago (300 to 3400 Hz) still applies. In other words, best you can ever get is the quality of music on hold you sometimes hear when you call some busy establishment.
"You're not supposed to just bridge the left and right channels because you're then connecting outputs of two different amplifiers. So a situation may arise where the left channel is trying to drive it's speaker (headphone's earplug) low while the other one would at the same time try to drive it's speaker (earplug) high. In the end you'll overload both amps and you'll get neither correct high nor low."
Please excuse me if I'm wrong, but, logically, that doesn't apply here, because the source (Bluetooth device) is mono, so there's only one (mono) output. Isn't it, then, safe to connect the single op-amp output to two channels?

EMILY ERNST: Donate Plasma This Month
The College Dems are dominating the Michigan Daily. This time it's a great viewpoint from FreshDem Emily Ernst. Here's what she had to say about PIDD:
April is Primary Immune Deficiency Awareness month. Primary Immune Deficiency Diseases are genetic disorders that cause some part of the immune system to function incorrectly, leaving people with these conditions extremely susceptible to illness. I am one of approximately 250,000 Americans diagnosed with one of these disorders.
PIDDs are life threatening when left untreated. For most people with the disease, a simple cold can turn into a severe sinus infection or pneumonia. The longer a person lives without being diagnosed, the greater the chances that the individual will die or suffer severe medical problems. People who live long enough to be diagnosed are put on a treatment called Immune Globulin therapy (IgG), which I have been receiving since I was three years old.
IgG is made out of human plasma, a blood component separated from the red and white blood cells. The body fights off diseases using many of the proteins found in plasma and, by taking regular injections of medications derived from plasma, those with the disorder are able to fight off diseases. Without this medicine, we would be almost constantly sick. My doctors determined I had an immune deficiency after I had contracted pneumonia three separate times by age three and had monthly sinus infections that I couldn't get rid of without antibiotics and steroids.
Immune deficients aren't the only people who benefit from plasma. The medications are also used to treat hemophilia, pediatric HIV, hepatitis, genetic lung disorders and, occasionally, animal bites. Even though so many different diseases are treated with plasma, people do not donate as much as they could. When plasma collection centers can't collect enough, it causes extreme shortages of the medications, and people who have any of the previously mentioned conditions are unable to get the medicine they need to lead a normal life. During the last plasma shortage in the late 1990s, people I know were unable to get their IgG for extended periods of time and started to get sick frequently. I still received my medication throughout the entire shortage because I was given priority as a minor, but many others weren't as lucky.
In recognition of Primary Immune Deficiency Awareness month, I would like to ask everyone to consider donating plasma. The nearest donation center is in Ypsilanti, but I encourage students to find donation centers in their hometowns. To find the donation center closest to you, go to www.donatingplasma.org. The website also gives additional information on the uses of plasma and the donation process.
I strongly encourage all of you to donate. You may be saving someone's life, and you could grant a healthy, normal lifestyle to someone who wouldn't have one otherwise. Plasma is an enormous gift that recipients are extremely thankful for. From the bottom of my heart, thank you to all of the current plasma donors, and I hope many of you consider donating in the future.
