By Shobhana Chandra and Bob Willis
March 24 (Bloomberg) -- Orders for durable goods rose in February for a
third month and new-home sales fell to the lowest on record, indicating
manufacturing will stay at the forefront of the economic recovery.
The 0.5 percent increase in bookings for long-lasting goods followed a 3.9

Harriet Alexander Higher Education Reporter
June 14, 2007
THE University of NSW faces a further blow over its ill-fated Asia campus
with revelations it will be forced to pay about $20 million to the Singapore
Government for pulling out of the venture.
Singapore's Economic Development Board paid the university about $80 million
to set up the campus and the university had drawn down just under a quarter
of the grant.

店名叫brooklyn boulders。是NYC最大的攀岩俱乐部。乘坐R train到Union ST stop下

能玩这种。就是变着法子收费。
我们玩的是bolding,个人觉得只要胆子大些,体力上第一次攀爬应该都能爬上壁顶。
我第一个试,说实话,爬到一半已经脚发软了,毕竟离地面快2米了,而且这个位置不
好找脚的着力点。可是下面有美女在看着,咱这第一个吃螃蟹不就是给美女看吗?上刀
山也得顶头皮,结果咬着钢牙触到壁顶。第二次手臂开始发酸,勉强触到壁顶。第三次
和第四次都是半途而废。纯属体力问题,和美女无关。美女很聪明,身体柔韧性也好,

3000块是after match,所以如果你的公司有match program的话,自己募集1500就行了。
这3000块钱全部给慈善机构,我们不留一分钱,爬山的费用是另外的。另外的费用就是包括给国家公园交的climbing permit,$30, camping reservation,$20,carpool费用,另外加上自己的衣服装备啥的,这个就没准了,看你是买还是租还是能借到,买高档的还是低档的,看个人了。 |

另外你们8-12个人的团队,看样子4-6人领导基本肯定是登山club的人,其他4-6个队员
都必须是招收的业余队员?万一招不齐6个纯业余的,在club学了一点皮毛但还不够当

South Sister的峰顶是一个火山口,直径大概是400米。火山口中间基本都覆盖着雪。
我们到了火山口的边缘时已经是7点,路上一共花了6.5个小时。天空虽然晴朗,但是风

围磊好了石头用来挡风。我们找了一块能够容纳两个帐篷并且离雪地近的营地。因为风
