Was this surgically detached from the Vagina? Are the FT's and ovaries following? (Sincere curiosity)
-
Interesting and disturbing. But isn't that still technically the inside of the uterus turned out?
-
Thank you Dr. Layton (can i call you that yet?) i was just commenting that it LOOKS like bone and well ovaries and fillopian tubes and the uterus look much different. I am having an ultra sound in two weeks and would be more than happy to try to birng pictures of my tubes and ovaries (i dont have a uterus) so we can have some kind of comparison... I've never seen those structures from the outside.

Labral tear? (That's Labrum....not to be confused with Labia )

Wow. Compare to Silver Lake photo in Beckey's book. The North Glacier until recently terminated in the lake!

Don't be deceived by these two:

But they are often mad about bone.

I buy an annual pass in Mount Rainier National Park because it's the right thing to do. The money seems to be well used and they have a solid climbing program, waste removal, and helpful rangers/staff. I hesitantly buy a USFS Trail Park permit because at least a portion of the $$$ go to maintain roads and trailhead access. However, with more roads and trails falling into disrepair at the behest of environmental extremists each year I am rapidly losing faith. I refuse, however, to buy a "volcano pass" or any other such nonsence permit for Adams, Baker, etc that seem to be nothing more than a jobs program for young wannabee land managers - with all of the $$$ raised paying for nothing more than enforcement of said pass. What a scam. Just respectfully refuse to produce ID if cornered by one of these USFS guys and go on about your way - feign deafness, act mentally deficient, whatever. Good luck.

We're actually closer to $9 trillion in debt now, but here's how trillion is better conceptualized: http://www.grc.nasa.gov/WWW/K-12/Numbers/Math/Mathematical_Thinking/how_big_is_a_trillion.htm We're fucked. I would support a special gas tax of .50 to 1.00 if it were earmarked only for debt-reduction. Unfortunately, the only way to make sure the $$ went to this purpose exclusively would be to enshrine it in a constitutional ammendment. The economy has already demonstrated it can handle increased fuel prices - future declines in retail could be balanced against a sliding-scale gas-tax increase. I'll have to do some research on gallons consumed/yr and $$$ generated. It may not even come close. But with annual interest on federal debt exceeding defence outlays, every bit of principle eliminated is critical. Note: I do not support a completely debt-free Fed. I still like govt bonds.

It's called "Pigs at the Trough". And whether you'll admit it or not, we're all the pigs.

Maybe you're cutting them down faster than they can grow back? Take a year off!

Josh, you demonstrated your doctrinal approach to science when you posted this last year: I predict 4 more posts before a conservative fucktard claims this as evidence that ALL planets are warming up and thus global warming is not the fault of humanity in any way, shape or form. http://www.cascadeclimbers.com/threadz/showflat.php/Cat/0/Number/501167/page/0/fpart/1/vc/1 It turned out to be of my favorite Joshisms. So please, don't lecture about science here.

I'll cede this important and embarrassing point if you agree to teach dbConlin some basic percentage problems. The debt is a real crisis that endangers not only our future prosperity, but our future as a nation. While I believe in tax cuts as economic stimulus, the act must go hand-in-hand with reduced spending. Bush has failed in this regard. The 'war on terror' and 9/11-related spending only account for about 50% of recent annual budget overruns. The rest is debt-service and other 'non-discretionary' bullshit, and ever growing entitlements aimed at keeping voters in check and silencing liberals who scream hysterically when growth of said entitlements is capped. Do any of you on the left really think a Dem exec - together with a dem congress would be any different than Republicans insofar as spending is concerned? I'm almost hoping for a Dem victory in the House this November.

Yes, Bush is my president....and yours too!

I just love the way Peter P is called "peepee", told to "get a clue" and labeled a racist by wholly indoctrinated undergrads who refuse to directly address his points - all the while qualifying, throat-clearing, and expressing indignation at a topic change that they/themselves initiated! Junior, you haven't grown up one bit.

Huh? 40,000,000 / 293,000,000 = 40% ??

[TR] Mt. Lawson- NW basin from river 5/13/2006
Fairweather replied to klenke's topic in Olympic Peninsula
Let me know. I'm not sure it's possible to climb Anderson in one day with the road in its current condition - unless your name is Sobo or Norman Clyde - but I'd be willing to give it a try in two. -

Fairweather replied to klenke's topic in Olympic Peninsula
Let me know if you need some company. I'd like to bike to the ranger station, hike to the glacier, and out again as a longer day-trip. Probably would wait until the seasonal snow melts down to see what ice remains, maybe in August. Strange that the once smaller glacier nearby - Linsley's Glacier - is still as big as ever. I'm not sure about the Eel, but it was a lot bigger to begin with. Tweezer flew over last year and took some revealing pictures: That's Linsley's below the west peak, and what remains of the Anderson Glacier is just above the lake on the bottom right. It is shocking that that lake didn't exist 80 years ago - that area was covered with over 300 feet of glacial ice! -

Huh? Trade Routes to where, exactly? I have never read this before. PC revisionism perhaps? -

I think you're confusing The Press Expedition with O'Niel's expeditions. The Press Party crossed Low Divide and probably didn't get a good look at Anderson. O'Niels men took a good picture of a bull Elk they killed near O'Niel Pass that clearly shows Mount Anderson and Linsley's Glacier. I'll have to do a re-read to make sure I'm recalling my facts correctly. -

I think I read that the east peak label on the USGS is an error ala 'Blizzard Pass'. (Since fixed) On an unrelated topic, I'm curious if anyone here made it up to the Anderson Glacier this past fall. I've heard it is completely gone now. -

IMO, West Peak IS Mount Anderson. Naming a lower summit as the primary is an abomination. Yea, yea; I know all about the supposed Mr. West in O'Niel's expedition being the namesake, I just don't buy it. At some point the east peak was christened 'Mount Anderson' to soothe the egos of sloggers unable or unwilling to climb the higher west peak. No. I haven't climbed it.
