Yosemite Rock Climbing Guides
a short article- what should i add?
heres a part of the article im writing
Over 4,000,000 visitors come to Yosemite each year. It is best to come in June, July, and August. When you go to Yosemite, you can do lots of activities for a trip you won’t forget. You can rent a bike and explore the Valley. Learning to rock climb Half Dome, a famous rock, is fun. A permit is needed for hiking Half Dome, though. If you want a new view of Yosemite’s wonders, you might want to raft down the Merced River.
There are some evening activities, too. With your family, you can attend a live theater performance. If you want to see the nature more deeply, it would be good to go for a Twilight Stroll. A naturalist guides you through the trails. Be aware, you might be able to see a wild bear.
No matter what your interests are, you will find something thrilling at Yosemite National Park
what can i add to the last paragraph to make it better???
please answer asap thank you in advance!!!:)
Over 4,000,000 visitors come to Yosemite each year. It is best to come in June, July, and August. When you go to Yosemite, you can participate in many activities which will result in a trip you won’t forget. You can rent a bike and explore the Valley. (name the valley. what kinds of things will you see there?) Learning to rock climb Half Dome, a famous rock, is fun. (Explain what half dome is. google it and get a blurb.) A permit is needed for hiking Half Dome, though. (Maybe tell why you need a permit) If you want a new view of Yosemite’s wonders, you might want to raft down the Merced River.(Describe the view you will see)
There are many evening activities which will greatly enrich your experience. With your family, you can attend a live theater performance. If you want to see the nature more deeply, it would be good to go for a Twilight Stroll. A naturalist guides you through the trails. Be aware, you might be able to see a wild bear. (more details on what you may see as far as plant and animal life) No matter what your interests are, you are sure to find something thrilling at Yosemite National Park

| | Guida Blu $21.59 Saxophonist Eugenio Colombo has accomplished much in the course of his playing and composing career, but hasn't been recognized for it outside his native Italy. This set, recorded with longtime collaborators Gianni Lenoci on piano, Bruno Tommaso on bass, and Ettore Fioravanti on percussion (with Giancarlo Schiaffini helping on trombone on two cuts), is a view of Colombo the jazz composer. Here, the influence of saxophonists such as John Coltrane and Eric Dolphy is prevalent, though Colombo sounds like no one but himself and tends to write for an entire ensemble rather than for himself as a soloist. Lenoci is the perfect foil for Colombo, far from the latter's thin, reedy streaming tone, Lenoci's lush, fat, thick post-bop chording is all over the place, giving each composition the necessary body for a soloist or two to hover around in before taking off from. Nowhere is this more true than on "Mazes," where the melody is a series of knots and loops with angular harmonic moves systematically from middle to lower register and then back. Lenoci prepares the ground with a series of huge ninths and even 11ths for Colombo to bring first the saxophones and then the flute into play to navigate the arpeggiated spaces. Later, on "October Song," Colombo brings his own deep Italian lyricism into play as he strikes out and touches upon first each whole step and its attendant melodic scales -- in the modal framework of the tune -- and then leaves himself on an edge in B flat with no way to get back except through all the tones again. It's breathtaking. Colombo's worth as a composer has certainly gone up -- the sophistication and built-in emotion in these pieces is beyond most of what's happening in Europe for small ensembles. Guida Blu a the bluesed-out story, and a great place to start for those who are unfamiliar with one of Italy's and jazz's finest voices. ~ Thom Jurek, Rovi Performers: Bruno Tommaso - Bass; Ettore Fioravanti - Drums, Percussion; Eugenio Colombo - Saxophone, Flute; Giancarlo Schiaffini - Trombone; Gianni Lenoci - Piano |

| | Pergolesi: Missa S. Emidio Manca La Guida Al Pie/L $21.59 Had Pergolesi not died young, his name would rank among the most stellar and influential of Italy's 18th-century composers. Despite the brevity of his life, he died at 26, Pergolesi created numerous deathless works. In this second album of Claudio Abbado's Pergolesi Project, the renowned maestro conducts the Missa S. Emidio, Manca la guida al pie, Laudate pueri Dominum, and the Salve Regina in F minor. Abbado's passion for this music meets these sacred compositions on the exalted level where they were composed. Pergolesi's church music is distinguished not just by lively declamation of the text but by the melodic charm of the solo sections, which contrast richly to the choral passages. This album showcases the talents of such singers as Rachel Harnisch, Sara Mingardo, Veronica Cangemi, and Teresa Romano, who bring exceptional vocal and interpretive gifts to this deceptively simple repertoire. |

Can I renew my permesso di soggiorno while I am in the USA?
Do I need to renew my permesso di soggiorno before the expiration date? It expires in April 2011 but I will not be returning to Italy until September 2011. I'm not sure if it is possible to renew it while I am in the US, if I can renew it past the expiration date or if I will have to start the application process all over again and wait another 4 months before I can work once I return to Italy???
I found this website but my Italian is still VERY basic so I'm having a hard time figuring this out.

Climbing Tools
Is it possible to climb Mount everest alone with no tools?
I want to make a new record of riskiest talent. but I want to know is it possible?
it is possible...but you must have a high stamina and a good supply of oxygen and probably gloves and some hot water to prevent your hands from getting frozen near the peak of the mountain. although i would advice you not to as it is very dangerous. it is ambitious, but not worth the risk to me.

| | Conditioning for Climbing $32.94 The only conditioning book a rock climber needs! Rock climbing is one of the most physically challenging sports, testing strength, endurance, flexibility, and stamina. Good climbers have to build and maintain each of these assets. This is the first-ever book to provide climbers of all ages and experience with the knowledge and tools to design and follow a comprehensive, personalized exercise program. Part One covers the basics of physical conditioning and goal-setting. Part Two takes readers through warm-up and flexibility routines, entry-level strength training, weight loss tips, and fifteen core-conditioning exercises. Part Three details climbing-specific conditioning, with twenty exercises to target specific muscles of the fingers, arms and upper torso to develop power and endurance. An entire chapter focuses on the antagonist muscle groups that help provide balance and stability, and prevent muscle injury. This section also has a chapter devoted to stamina conditioning, increasing the climber`s endurance at high altitudes. Part Four shows how to put together a customized training program to suit the climber`s needs. The book includes workout sheets for Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced skill levels, tips for children and those over age fifty, secrets of good nutrition and an insider`s take on avoiding injuries.

Chapters that follow discuss advanced trad lead skills, such as multipitch techniques and self-rescue; knot and rope craft; and ratings, climbing etiquette, and impact and access issues. Advice from traditional leaders, b&w photos, and illustrations are incorporated. A working knowledge of basic climbing equipment and simple systems like belaying, top-roping, and leading is assumed. Techniques described mainly refer to roped free climbing on rock. Pesterfield, a freelance writer, is also a rock climbing and outdoor recreation instructor.

Hiking Running
Is there something like a "Central Park" in San Antonio where there are hiking and running trails?
Like Memorial Park in Houston?
Would it be that park by The Quarry in alamo Heights? What about McAllister Park? Looking for a nice place to run a 5k plus people watch.
Brackenridge Park is really nice. It's downtown about 345 acres with a golf course (under renovation), a museum, a zoo and the beautiful Japanese tea gardens. Plenty of folks fly kites, ride bikes and jog in the area.
McAllister Park is north of the Airport about 240 acres. I live 2 houses from the Park. It's quite lovely and is famous for soccer, baseball, the new kiddie park, dog park, trails for bicyclists and joggers.
I am an avid mountain biker and have biked both areas.
A new area I have not tried is Government State Canyon Natural Area which is over 8,000 acres. On the outskirts of San Antonio. No cars allowed! Government Canyon is currently open for day use only, and no camping is allowed. The park is OPEN Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday from 8 AM-6 PM, and is CLOSED Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. the trails are frequented by hikers, mountain bikers, and horse riders. It's been open less than 3 years.

Natural Insect Repellent Recipe
How do you protect yourself from Rattlesnake bites while running & hiking?
I live in the desert so I encounter a lot of rattlesnakes while running & hiking. So what can I wear to prevent being bitten if I accidentially step on one? Should I wear 2 socks, jeans or something?
Well I live in Arizona so I come across this quite often. There is no perfect answer because you can't predict everything that a snake will do. Here are some things you can do.
RUNNING:
.run on regularly used trails(aka wide/ well used trails)
.check to see online when your local snakes are most active
.Just be carful. You will most likely never or very rarely come across one no matter what any one says.
HIKING:
. If you are thinking about going on rougher trails or going off trail you can tuck you pants into some reasonable length socks.
. Carry a 1st aid kit at all times
.Have a way to tie something around the limb if you do get bit. Many people may say this is a bad idea and that it doesn’t help, but it does work on a short term basis. If you are going to have to wait to get to the hospital then it would be a definite don't
