Clan of the cave honey badger. I don't speak Italian, but I'm real good with Google translate. Jati member of the friendfeed bardo. Frotfeathers, quince liquor, etc.
I've only made it to two on the list, John Muir and Wind River. But I've also hiked the Sierras, the Rockies, the Swiss Alps, and the Himalayas.

8) North Cascades National Park,
Washington
"America's Alps" offer jagged peaks, ice fields, brilliant lakes, alpine meadows, and a variety of hikes from densely-forested trails to ridge routes with panoramic views.
9) Patagonia, Argentina
Embark on one of the world's classic hikes, the "W," through this massive, untamed wilderness teeming with turquoise lakes, snow-capped volcanoes, and calving glaciers.
10) Wind River Range, Wyoming

"And not since The Producers has a creative team had so much fun both sending up and celebrating the corny, open-hearted glories of the musical comedy form. It's one thing to write a hellfire-tempting parody of a gigantic target like "Hakuna Matata," as these guys do in "Hasa Diga Eebowai," whose title translates to an unprintably blasphemous bit of faithful-baiting. It's another level of fanboy geekery entirely to wrap up your first act with a knowing number like "Man Up," a to-the-footlights rouser that mocks rock operas from Rent to Rock of Ages in one full-throated measure and hat-tips an art-musical landmark like Jason Robert Brown's Songs for a New World in the next. It navigates the transitions between styles as confidently as any Tunick, too; this is confident, witty pastiche, from a team that knows what makes good Broadway songs and why people respond to them. And the performances on the cast album, due May 17 in digital formats and June 7 in stores, are first-class — polished, energetic turns from little-known names who've clearly written their tickets with this show."

So, it turns out that my desktop computer at work is riddled with trojans (no, not that kind, you pervs) and had to be disconnected from the network. This is my temporary setup until my computer is reimaged. I did not like having to invade the Café de Jenny- it was my zen space. :(
I'm looking at the random stuff: half and half (isn't that supposed to be refridgerated), Pepto, DayQuil, Stephen Hawking book. Fun! :)

Rain in Seattle != rain in Las Vegas, Kevin. Rain here is something to celebrate and savor. Rain in Seattle is like sunshine in Vegas. ;)

"An Amazon stingray known as the tiger ray has finally earned its scientific stripes: It's been officially recognized as a new species. For more than a decade, aquarium traders in the upper Amazon River Basin of Peru have caught the freshwater fish, whose name—Potamotrygon tigrina—is inspired by its orange-black coloration and banded tail. Up to 31 inches (80 centimeters) wide, the species is distinct from other stingrays based on, among other features, its conspicuous colors and its tail spines, which are lower and not as closely grouped as those of its relatives. (See related pictures: "Odd Stingless Stingrays Discovered in Amazon.") "It's one of the prettiest species," said Marcelo de Carvalho, a zoologist at the University of São Paulo in Brazil who led a new study on the tiger ray."

"When a new opera is produced, dozens of artists and craftspeople from various disciplines come together around a shared dramatic and musical vision. This collaboration requires extraordinary skill, and cooperation on a grand scale. San Francisco Opera’s The Bonesetter’s Daughter, composed by Stewart Wallace with a libretto by novelist Amy Tan, brought together singers, designers and musicians from three continents. Many were steeped in the Western operatic tradition, but for others, it was an introduction to American opera. This collection focuses on the joys and challenges of collaboration, with reflections from several of the artists who brought The Bonesetter’s Daughter to life."

"Relief workers in Alabama have been working around the clock to tend to victims of last week's tornadoes. But for volunteers at the Alabama Wildlife Center south of Birmingham, they're dealing with some of the smallest victims, wild birds. The director of a popular state park there says storms blew over more trees than he can count. It's a reminder the weather affects more than just humans. A volunteer pulls a ruffled owl from a cardboard box and cups his hands around the tiny bird as it screeches in response. It's not happy. Wildlife rehabilitator Lee McDonald examines it. "If I were a little baby screech owl, I wouldn't be enjoying it either," she says. This baby bird was found after the tornadoes, alongside its dead parents and sibling. McDonald goes over its feet, stretches out its wings and checks the feathers. "Everything seems, from outside appearances, to be in working order," she declares. But she's concerned about the owl's nutrition. Despite the best intentions, the woman who found the bird didn't feed it a proper diet."

"May 3, 2011 — An Australian team has made a record-breaking dive in what may be the world's deepest coldwater cave. But the explorers still haven't reached the end of this New Zealand cave, thought to lead to the mysterious source of the Pearse River."

"Alaska harbors all three of North America’s bear species, from three hundred pound black bears to polar and brown bears weighing well over half a ton. It is home to the highest mountain on the continent, vast glaciers, immense forests, and a level of isolation that can be found nowhere else in the United States.
And it’s big. This northernmost state is the same size as the next three largest states combined (California, Texas and Montana).
Alaska’s wilderness allowed us to step back in time on a journey that took us through five major ecosystems and the habitats of its three bear species. It was also a journey that put us to the test as we hiked, camped and lived among the biggest bears in the world, chased black bears through the streets of Anchorage, followed grizzlies on the prowl for immense caribou herds, and searched for polar bears miles out on the pack ice. In every one of these locations bears have adapted impressively to their surroundings.
We’re hoping that, as you wander through this website and sink yourself into the series, you will feel immersed in the world of the bear. It is a truly wondrous place."

"It’s finally here — time for us to share our incredible Alaskan adventure with the world through Bears of the Last Frontier. It has been quite the journey. The film has been nearly two years in the making, and for both of us it has become an unforgettable part of our lives. Over the course of a year and a half we traveled well over 3000 miles across Alaska and shot 500 hours of footage for this epic three-hour PBS Nature series. We spent many, many months in bear country – piecing together the lives of these fascinating animals by observing and filming them, and by living in bear country, among the animals and people that share bear habitat. When Joe and I met nearly ten years ago (coincidentally in Alaska) our minds reeled with the possibilities for collaboration. A filmmaker and an ecologist, and a combined dream to have a huge impact for wildlife conservation through the magic of film. The opportunity to work with PBS Nature has been a dream, and has resulted in three beautiful episodes we hope you’ll love."
