  1. Pat Ament has written some of the most turgid drivel found anywhere in climbing literature.
  2. My buddy beat her to that idea. We call him the man whore due to the fact he once seduced and then slept with an older (not unnatractive) lady so she would buy him a pair of La Sportiva mountain boots. I still give him shit for it but mostly it's because he beat me to the idea. ?One Green Bottle was written in the 50s.

  11. Those who remember the street parties of Election Night 2008 might think the testosterone levels of Obama voters had shot up in triumph. That would be wrong. Instead, liberal testosterone levels stayed stable, while those of male Republican voters plummeted. The latter also reported feeling submissive and unhappy. There are many ways to read these results, which are based on saliva samples taken from 183 men and women as the polls closed, and again when President Obama’s victory was officially announced. First, male voters get the same vicarious boost from a candidate’s political victory as they would their favorite sports team beating a rival. That’s the main academic finding of the study, published Wednesday in Public Library of Science ONE, but one that seems rather self-evident. election_testosteroneMuch more interesting is the split. Obama voter testosterone merely stabilized. The researchers suggest that, as nighttime testosterone levels typically dip, stabilization “is conceptually similar to a rise.” But if testosterone usually just dips at night, it positively plummeted for Republican men. Indeed, Republican men “felt significantly more controlled, submissive, unhappy and unpleasant at the moment of the outcome” than those who voted for Obama, the researchers wrote. “Moreover, since the dominance hierarchy shift following a presidential election is stable for four years, the stress of having one’s political party lose control of executive policy decisions could plausibly lead to continued testosterone suppression in males.” Women of both political parties, it should be noted, experienced no significant testosterone changes on election night

  16. http://www.lrb.co.uk/v31/n20/runc01_.html “The Spirit Level: Why More Equal Societies Almost Always Do Better by Richard Wilkinson and Kate Pickett “The argument of this fascinating and deeply provoking book is easy to summarise: among rich countries, the more unequal ones do worse according to almost every quality of life indicator you can imagine. “They do worse even if they are richer overall, so that per capita GDP turns out to be much less significant for general wellbeing than the size of the gap between the richest and poorest 20 per cent of the population (the basic measure of inequality the authors use). “The evidence that Wilkinson and Pickett supply to make their case is overwhelming. Whether the test is life expectancy, infant mortality, obesity levels, crime rates, literacy scores, even the amount of rubbish that gets recycled, the more equal the society the better the performance invariably is. “In graph after graph measuring various welfare functions, the authors show that the best predictor of how countries will rank is not the differences in wealth between them (which would result in the US coming top, with the Scandinavian countries and the UK not too far behind, and poorer European nations like Greece and Portugal bringing up the rear) but the differences in wealth within them (so the US, as the most unequal society, comes last on many measures, followed by Portugal and the UK, both places where the gap between rich and poor is relatively large, with Spain and Greece somewhere in the middle, and the Scandinavian countries invariably out in front, along with Japan). “Just as significantly, this pattern holds inside the US as well, where states with high levels of income inequality also tend to have the greatest social problems. It is true that some of the most unequal American states are also among the poorest (Mississippi, Louisiana, West Virginia), so you might expect things to go worse there. But some unequal states are also rich (California), whereas some fairly equal ones are also quite poor (Utah). Only a few (New Hampshire, Wyoming) score well on both counts. What the graphs show are the unequal states tending to cluster together regardless of income, so that California usually finds itself alongside Mississippi scoring badly, while New Hampshire and Utah both do consistently well….”

  20. Well - the ice is still at minimum a month or so away but here is a new version of the WEST COAST ICE UPDATE with all climbs reported since WCI 2nd ed came out, through March 2009. Comments, amendations, errata desired for further editions. Total number of new routes is up to around 90 now from 70 in last years. 4115.pdf

    With all the recent incidents of famous climbers dying, here's an accident story with a non-fatal ending. Pretty cool rescue effort all around. http://www.princegeorgecitizen.com/20091021999911383/local/news/-145i-remember-saying-145i-146m-dead-146-before-i-blacked-out-146.html
