Mountaineering Deaths on K2 ANCHOR: An update on the horrific K2 hiking tragedy in Pakistan. It seems that out of 18 trekkers only two have survived. Among the dead are three Koreans, two Nepalis, two Pakistani high altitude porters, French, Serbian and Norwegian climbers and an Irishman. STORY: The unforgiving slopes of K2 is the world's second largest mountain after Everest, based in north Pakistan. It is a notoriously difficult ascent and now the mountain has claimed more lives in one devastating expedition than ever before in its history. Several teams amassed for a joint assault on the summit but eleven of their members from all over the world were to die trying. Disaster struck during the descent of a steep gully known as the Bottleneck eight thousand meters above sea level. Several died when an ice wall collapsed and tore away their safety lines. Others, stranded, died in the freezing oxygen starved air at an altitude known as the death zone. Dutch survivor Van Rooijen, seen here in a Pakistan hospital, said he screamed for people to work together but they appeared consumed with self preservation. Some tried to find their own way down on a mountain where to be lost means almost certain death. His compatriot, Las van de Gevel, was also rescued and was recuperating. One Italian spent four nights on K2 before finally managing to make it to safety despite severe frostbite. Technically more difficult to climb than Mount Everest, K2 is even harder to descend. Mountaineering veterans have questioned the wisdom of an assault on the summit that resulted in some climbers reaching the top after night fall. More than 70 people have been killed on K2, many on their way down. Tags: ntd mountaineering hiking pakistan trekkers K2 |

Everest Mountaineer Beats His Record WONG: A Nepali sherpa climbed the world's highest peak for the 18th time on Thursday, beating his own record set last year. STORY: 48 year old Apa Sherpa reached the 8,850-meter summit of Mount Everest again on Thursday. Though Apa declared six years ago that he will retire from mountaineering to be with family, he has still been scaling Everest every year, recently to support civic causes.[Apa Sherpa, Mountaineer]:"There is only one Everest in the world, we must think of how we can best protect it by keeping it clean. "Apa's ascent last Thursday was sponsored by the Asian Trekking Agency and the International Center for Integrated Mountain Development (ICIMOD). The aim is to promote eco-tourism and urge climbers to clean up their waste not only in the base camp but also on the increasingly polluted mountain top. He also wants to educate the locals about the mountain. [Apa Sherpa, Mountaineer]:"They don't know what is global warming, or how the glacier lake bursts out. Even today the people of our remote areas construct hotels just beside the streams without knowing its consequences. They invest their savings without knowing when the glacier lake might burst. "Apa was born in the same village as Tenzing Norgay, and used to work as a porter on climbing expeditions. He climbed Everest for the first time in 1990 and has done so every year since then, except in 1996 when harsh weather conditions killed 15 mountaineers including his mentor.

Last Climber Rescued Following K2 Disaster PlusLast Climber Rescued Following K2 DisasterLast Climber Rescued Following K2 DisasterThe Associated PressThe frostbitten last survivor of the mountaineering disaster that killed 11 people on the world's second-highest peak was plucked off K2 on Wednesday and taken to a military hospital, a Pakistani army spokesman said. (Aug. 6)A helicopter carries the last survivor of a doomed mission to climb one of the world's most challenging mountains. Italian Marco Confortola was rescued from K-2, nearly five days after an avalanche swept some climbers away and stranded others. (SOT: MAJOR FAROOQ FEROZ, PAKISTAN ARMY SPOKESMAN) "WELL, TODAY PAKISTANI ARMY AVIATION PILOTS HAVE SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETED THEIR RESCUE MISSION AND RESCUED 13 KOREAN MEMBERS AND TWO ITALIAN CLIMBERS FROM K2 AREA. 11 climbers died on the world's second-highest peak-the deadliest incident since seven climbers were killed in 1995. As many as 30 mountaineers began the ascent last Friday. (SOT: CAS VAN DE GEVEL (OFF-SCREEN) ON KOREAN AND ITALIAN CLIMBER) "ON THE WAY DOWN, TWO KOREANS WERE HIT BY ICE, WITH MARCO (THE ITALIAN) STILL SAFE." Confortola says the expedition was plagued by inexperience and poor equipment. He says some ropes and spikes easily broke. He told a scientific research group of feeling helpless when he and others made a futile attempt to rescue the three Koreans dangling from a rope. Another survivor blamed mistakes in preparation for the deaths.(NATS IN DUTCH)He also says bad luck and bad weather led to some people not making it down off the mountain.The 37-year-old Confortola is suffering from frostbite. He says he spent a very hard seven days on K-2. ___ ___, The Associated Press. Tags: pakistan missing_climbers climber rescued following k2 disaster |

Natsume Yujin Cho 13 - 1/3 ***** Story of Natsume yujin chou 13 1/3 ***** Natsume got lost being separated from Nyanko Sensei on the way to Nanatsujiya the steamed bean-jam bun shop since Nyanko Sensei told him that he found a shortcut to the shop, but he could see a great view from that mountain because of it. Mean while, Nyanko Sensei noticed that he got separated from Natsume too and he said "Ok then I'll wait for Natsume for like 5 seconds. 1...2..." but he started to slide since he stepped on wet leaves and he bumped to Tanuma the one of Natsume's friends and stopped. Tanuma recognized Nyanko Sensei as a Natsume's pet but he couldn't remeber the name so he was like "Nyan Nyan Sensei? or some..." so he decided to call him "Ponta". Then Nyanko Sensei woke up and said "I'm Nyanko Sensei!" and he said "I think you are Tanuma. You did better than I expected even though I though you are dum". Nyanko Sensei had been thinking that Tanuma already knew that Nyanko Sensei is a monster, not a cat since Tanuma is Natsume's good firend but actually Natsume hasn't told Tanuma about it yet. So now Tanuma got surprised as hell at Nyanko Sensei talking. But Tanuma started to talk to Nyanko Sensei and he asked Nyanko Sensei if he's a monster then Nyanko Sensei said "I'm a higher grade one, don't evenn think I'm a same kind of monsters out there." Then Tanuma said "it's very first time for me to talk with a monster". Tanuma has a abolity to see monsters like Natsume has but his one is not strong as Natsume's so he sometimes could see but sometimes he only could see part of it or feel it. Then Nyanko Sensei said "Oh that's why Natsume didn't tell you about monsters alot since you are not valid or some for it". Tanuma got shocked hearing it since he's been feeling comfortable having Natsume as his friend having same kind of abilities and experiences. So Tanuma just said "oh, I see...it may be so...". Tanuma asked Nyanko Sensei what he is for Natsume and if he doen't annoy Natsume, then Nyanko Sensie asked Tanuma back "I'm a Sensei for Natsume what do you mean?" So Tanuma said "no matter what you said, you don't look like you are a Sensei for him, you should be the one to be taken care of. But if it's true you may threaten him or some" now Nyanko Sensei got extremely mad and he tried to eat Tanuma but then Natsume showed up and gave him a punch and saved Tanuma. Tanuma asked Natsume why Nyanko Sensei is with him. Natsume said "Sensei's kinda like a guard for me..." Tanuma felt sorry for asking remembering what he heard earlier from Nyanko Sensei and he said "Oh you don't have to answer if you don't want to". Then Natsume was like "it's not like that, it's so complicated so I don't know how I can explain...not like I wanted to hide from you..." but Natsume thought that he had to tell him the truth on second thought so he said "Nah maybe I wanted hide it from you since I didn't make you feel uncomfortable and I wanted to keep talking with you normally" so Tanuma asked Natsume back "so you are feeling uncomfortable?" being worried about Natsume. Nyanko Sensei told Natsume that he could catch a big fish from the river, and Natsume answered to Tanuma's question "It's not uncomfortable actually". Nyanko Sensei noticed the sound of people getting ready for autumn festival and he said "Let's go see it" even though Natsume told him it hasn't begun yet. And Tanuma said he could come with them since the shrine that has the festival is on his way back home. There was Sasada the class representative at the shrine helping somebdy but again she started to be curious and nosy about monsters at the crowded place like that since she saw Natsume's there. She wanted to know if they actually were or some but she had to get back to work. So Natsume and Tanuma decided to get her lost and left... leaving Nyanko Sensei there **************************** 夏目友人帳 Natsume yujin chou Episode 13 - 2/3: http://jp.youtube.com/watch?v=sqlnLLzbdpQ 夏目友人帳 Natsume yujin chou Episode 13 - 3/3: http://jp.youtube.com/watch?v=awbJZiT_vjo **************************** Natsume Yujin Cho 13 - the final episode 1/3 : "Aki no Yaen (The Autumn Banquet) - 秋の夜宴" - exclusive for TV Anime (based on a part of original episode) Natsume Yujin Chou Opening Theme Song: "Issei no Sei" by "Kita Shuhei" Natsume Yujin Chou Ending Theme Song: "Natsu yuzora" by "Atari Kosuke" Tags: Natsume Yujin Chou Yuujin Cho Yuujinchou EP13 Opening Theme OP Ayakashi final 妖怪 オープニング 一斉の声 いっせいのせい 喜多修平 |

Twilight (part 2) Full Movie: http://justmovielinks.com/ Twilight - Full Movie Part 2 HD Part2 Bella Swan has always been a little bit different. Never one to run with the crowd, Bella never cared about fitting in with the trendy, plastic girls at her Phoenix, Arizona high school. When her mother remarried and sent Bella to live with her father in the rainy little town of Forks, Washington, she didn't expect much of anything to change. But things do change when she meets the mysterious and dazzlingly beautiful Edward Cullen. For Edward is nothing like any boy she's ever met. He's nothing like anyone she's ever met, period. He's intelligent and witty, and he seems to see straight into her soul. In no time at all, they are swept up in a passionate and decidedly unorthodox romance - unorthodox because Edward really isn't like the other boys. He can run faster than a mountain lion. He can stop a moving car with his bare hands. Oh, and he hasn't aged since 1918. Like all vampires, he's immortal. That's right - vampire. But he doesn't have fangs - that's just in the movies. And he doesn't drink human blood, though Edward and his family are unique among vampires in that lifestyle choice. To Edward, Bella is that thing he has waited 90 years for - a soul mate. But the closer they get, the more Edward must struggle to resist the primal pull of her scent, which could send him into an uncontrollable frenzy. Somehow or other, they will have to manage their unmanageable love. But what will they do when Laurent and James, the Cullens' mortal vampire enemies, come to town, looking for Bella? A modern, visual, and visceral Romeo and Juliet story of the ultimate forbidden love affair - between vampire and mortal.
