    So... what, Is this (counting all subsidiaries), like, your 45,000th IPO?

  3. I wouldn't be surprised if there were such a thing.
  4. Did you record it and post it on PooTube.com?
  5. researching posts of the hated & despised in order to publicly, but anonymously, castigate.
  6. Raindawg, by organization priority and chronological accomplishment, your stated concern was addressed first and continues to be supported by this organization. Empowering these Pakistani women is supplemental and secondary to the creation and continuing operation/support of the KFK clinic. However, as stated in the first post of this thread and touched upon by AlpineK, the goal and reason for the Mountain Fund's support of the Pakistani Women's Climb is not "big expedition fun", but the opening of a super-highway of industry, entrepreneurship, and support for women in an environment ripe for such development. That said, it is wholely understandable and good if you support other and specific humanitarian endeavors. It would be wonderful and greatly appreciated if you supplied support earmarked for exclusive use at the KFK clinic. Thanks for your input.
  7. So, after she becomes a law enforcement officer, the "mounted" part of the title will be redundant.

    sleeping bags

    You've probably received enough good info here already to decide what you need on Baker in August/early September: good pad insulation & bag size is whatever makes you comfortable allowing for adding clothes to make warmer and zipping open to exhaust excess heat... I'd probably err to the warm side with a 15-25df bag. However, on an extended trip, where you don't stay in one camp, but keep moving (tours, traverses. etc.), your down bag will become damp and lose loft due to your own perspiration unless you use an inner VB liner. But, that, perhaps, is for another discussion. Using down-filled articles and not being obsessed with weight to the point of cutting off toothbrush handles, I've come to enjoy using these bags for down articles to decrease pack size (which allow for a net weight reduction).
  9. Gordie takin' it high and low from a couple of lowly Maple Leafs:
  10. does anyone in the NHL play without a helmet?
  11. it tells in the article
  12. Patagonia started a decade ago offering fleece made from plastic soda bottles. Now, more are finding a market in the trend.

  14. This afternoon, a goal in the last two minutes won the game for Detroit.
  15. Dechristo, I particularly like the "gene gun" and the part about human-kind practicing biotech for more than 6 000 years vis a vis beer making. Yeah, the gene gun: pretty awesome technology producing torn cellular walls (by gold "bullets") to allow for cellular modification. The ad agency that came up with the presentation (and analogy), no doubt, had a hard time deciding which the public would like better (and be sold by): beer-making or showing puppies. It does become a different story, more so than it was at the start, when accidental cross-breeding occurs destroying previously autonomous genetic stock by rendering it sterile (with a Terminator gene) or hobbling all successive strains with the need for patented applications in order to germinate. ...and should you, as a farmer, bear the misfortune of wind-blown contamination of your genetic stock (or contamination by any means) by patented genetic stock, you will be sued by the patent holders...and the current state of Law demands that the complainant prevail.
  16. WTF is with the "Canadians only"?

    But, concerning privacy, in some respects, I'm less concerned now than I was then.

  22. Does anyone know what this woman's trying to get at? Is it that she has a deep seated need to invent her own secret language? It's good to see her needs have, and continue to be, met.
