Moods of the Mountains and Climbers

AAJ, 1927

 

M. M. STRUMIA

HAVE you ever asked yourself: What is in back of a climbing

narrative that we read ? “On such and such a day we left

so and so, with so many horses and so many humans.” Or: “On such

and such a day, with the sun shining brightly, or the rain pouring,

we left with one guide or two guides.” The narrative proceeds :

“In the afternoon of a hot July day we reached the top and all

we could do was to sit down and eat.” Or: “Step-cutting was

endured for one hour under falling stones.” Is that the essence

of climbing?

Gear Of The Day: Pika Packworks EEP Bike Carrying Case Gear Of The Day: Pika Packworks EEP Bike Carrying Case Pika Packworks EPP bike carrying case is a compact, protective womb for your bike that you'll be proud, and confident, to hand off to the airlines By Liz Reap Pika Packworks EPP Bike Carrying Case © Liz Reap You gotta love a guy whose inspiration for designing a bike carrying case was to skirt oversize baggage fees. Meet Mark Smedley, the former mountain bike pro who grew tired of shelling out his hard earned cash back in 1993 to and said, "There must be a better way." There is. And it's the Pika Packworks EEP. 

I swapped out my C Record front chainrings, cogs, and rear derailleur after our recent 220 mile weekend in Vermont and Massachusetts. Now, my handy Campy technical books have been getting a bit grubby... and I'm worried that I might lose one if I take it with me on the road. I am happy to report that there's a nifty list of installation guides on Campagnolo's web site. With these in hand after you reassemble your bike, you will know what the mysterious left-over washer was for! ; )

The best discs in circulation tend to be Taiyo Yuden media, which you rarely can buy directly. In Japan, you find their media under the brand That’s, which are wholly owned by Taiyo Yuden. In other countries, popular brands such as TDK and Verbatim carry their media (see the Taiyo Yuden FAQ by the CD Freaks Forum for a listing). Simply put, I have never had problems with any kind of Taiyo Yuden media. Ever. I have bought CDs and DVDs under a dozen different brands (including non-Taiyo Yuden manufactured TDK and Verbatim), and the only ones that have had a 100% success rate is Taiyo Yuden. If you cannot find any company selling Taiyo Yuden under the own brand, I suggest buying from the SuperMediaStore.com, who offer a wide range of Taiyo Yuden CD media, DVD-R media, and DVD+R media. I tend to buy just from them, as they are the only company that guarantees that their media is actually from Taiyo Yuden and not a fake (see the above linked FAQ on information about fake Taiyo Yuden media)

My uncle Robert Hammerslag lives in Iloilo, Phillippines which was struck with a devastating Typhoon in late June, 2008.

He sent an image of the catastrophic hillside erosion caused by deforestation, and this local news story.

 

Kalibo still reeling from havoc brought by typhoon Frank

By Nestor P. Burgos Jr.

KALIBO, Aklan—Residents of this quiet and peaceful town are desperately crying out for food, water and other assistance more than a week after typhoon Frank ravaged Western Visayas.

While eyes are mostly focused on the death and destruction brought by the typhoon in Iloilo and the sinking of the MV Princess of the Stars near Sibuyan Island, the capital town of Aklan and provincial center of business, education and government is still buried in in at least ankle-high mud with no electricity, water, phone lines and food. 

Avery goes frog hunting with Tom Masotta - 1996.

My daughter Avery and her friend Annabelle have been dabbling in French music. We learned that LastFM is a vibrant source of everything musical in Europe. The French have their own group on LastFM, and this radio station is based on member favorites. To each his own taste, as long as it is French!
