STEPHEN MERCHANTI would like to assume that this man needs no introduction, but in case you’ve been living under a rock: This hilarious and talented writer and comedian is the co-host of “The Ricky Gervais Show” (hint: he’s neither Ricky, nor Karl). He and Ricky also co-wrote and co-directed the first iteration of “The Office” for the BBC, and he co-developed “An Idiot Abroad” for Sky1. Basically, if you love Ricky Gervais, then you’re already a huge fan of Stephen Merchant.
Up Coming Guests:
The King of Twitter, Rob is a comedian who kills 140 characters at a time. Winner of “Funniest person on Twitter” in 2012 by Comedy Central… you know what, just go, right now, and follow him. @RobDelaney on Twitter. Go to another tab. We’ll wait.
Director and YouTube star, known for his “video games meet real life” style vids, where tanks fall from the sky, rocket launchers help people jump over buildings, and we all walk around with a few extra lives, Mario style. Seriously, if you’re not familiar, just go and check out either of his channels at YT: freddiew and freddiew2. You won’t be disappointed!
There She Is. The team is nearly finished with the approach trek to Broad Peak and K2 and finally reach the camp at Concordia. Concordia is a hub of sorts in the region as it sits at the confluence of the Baltoro Glacier and Godwin-Austen Glacier, between the base camps of several 8000m and 7000m peaks including K2 (8611m), Gasherbrum I (8080m), Broad Peak (8051) and Gasherbrum II (8034m). That’s right, from Concordia you can gaze upon four 8000m peaks in the immediate vicinity while stradelling two of the world’s largest glaciers! Speaking of viewing peaks, from their brief visit at Concordia, the team is able to get a rare, cloudless and unobstructed view of their objectives, K2 and Broad Peak. It’s an amazing sight and the weather is so astonishingly perfect, they wish they were up on K2′s summit ridge NOW! Jon Miller Total Running Time: 23:59
An Almost Unabridged Expedition Experience. The Rest of Everest is a video podcast created by documentary filmmaker Jon Miller of TreeLine Productions in Colorado. It is “the rest” of the footage from the groundbreaking expedition documentary “Everest: The Other Side” which engrossed thousands of viewers when it premiered on Dish Network™ Pay-Per-View in May of 2005. The film documents the 2003 expedition to the Northeast Ridge route in Tibet, and coincides with the 50th anniversary climbing season. The story revolves around 23-year old climber Ben Clark and the fulfillment of his dream to become one of the youngest climbers to ever summit Everest. Although the film was very well received, there was so much of the story left to be told. Miller returned from Everest with over 80 hours of tape from the 60 day expedition. The final cut of the film totaled just 84 minutes. Average that out and it appears that only one minute of every hour filmed made it into the finished version In September 2007, the final episode from the 2003 expedition was released. The podcast began as a way to expand upon the story told in the film but has grown into an entity all it’s own. Since launching the podcast in 2006, Jon has returned to Everest three times to film more content specifically for the show and has recently returned from filming the East Face of Everest in April and May of 2010. Jon has now documented all three sides of the World’s highest mountain on video including special stereoscopic 3D material that will be released in the future with Season 5. Many episodes of the show also cover an entire expedition to Annapurna IV which Ben Clark and his climbing partners Josh Butson and Tim Clarke attempted in 2008. That “Beyond Everest” series brought the podcast back to its mountaineering roots. The Rest of Everest is far more than a look into the alien world of high-altitude mountaineering. It is a look at the places, cultures, people, travelers and mountaineers that call the Everest region and the Himalayas home. Watch a few episodes and you’ll discover that the world portrayed in this series is hardly alien at all. You’ve probably seen some of what it’s like to visit and climb Mount Everest. Well, this is the rest. This is The Rest of Everest.

Would you sign a petition to get paid less money?
While the question seems absurd, you may be (or have already been) asked to do this by Pandora radio, which is seeking to lower its payments to those who create the music that drive its business. Pandora’s “letter of support” is being circulated as they prepare to embark on another legislative effort to reduce royalties to featured artists, session musicians and producers.
Just two months ago, Pandora’s CFO stated, “The rates that we pay are statutory rates that are fixed, they are set in stone through 2015. Based on those rates, we are confident we can build a really good company…It’s all about monetization.”
We agree. So why is Pandora telling Congress it needs to lower its payments (already a tenth of a penny per play) to artists?
In a letter sent to artists, Pandora says it wants to speak for “working musicians” in Washington. But they know you already have a voice in Washington. Just a few weeks ago, hundreds of Academy members made their voices heard loud and clear at GRAMMYs on the Hill, telling Congress to protect fair wages to creators. With all due respect to Pandora, we do not need Wall St. media companies speaking for music creators.
Your Recording Academy will continue to fight any efforts to reduce your ability to earn a fair wage from your music. Before signing onto any letter of support by Pandora, I encourage you to learn more about the issue at http://www.grammy.com/fairpay.

It calls itself the “premier producer of foie gras in America.” But, in 2013, a PETA investigator visited Hudson Valley Foie Gras (HVFG), a factory farm, and saw workers shove steel tubes down ducks‘ throats and pump huge amounts of grain into them. The investigator recorded HVFG’s manager stating that this is done three times a day, every day, for weeks.
The birds’ livers become diseased and swell to up to 10 times their normal size.Fatty duck livers from HVFG are served at Gordon Ramsay at the London, a New York City restaurant licensed by Chef Ramsay.
Not surprisingly, experts opine that force-feeding causes ducks painful injuries, including, according to world-renowned avian welfare expert Dr. Ian Duncan, tearing of the esophagus.
HVFG condemns ducks to huge, dark sheds, where there is no water for them to bathe or swim in or eat from. They are denied any opportunity to live naturally like ducks.
Ducks suffered in 1991 at a factory farm that HVFG later acquired.
They still suffer at HVFG today.
After weeks of being force-fed, the ducks are hung upside down and their throats are slit. Many ducks sent to slaughter by the cruel foie gras industry are still conscious as their throats are cut and they bleed to death.
At HVFG, some 15,000 ducks die every year before they can be slaughtered. Even though a manager claims that the ducks “don’t get sick,” 41 birds, on average, drop dead every day.
This was not PETA’s first visit to Sullivan County. In 1991, PETA sent undercover investigators inside Commonwealth Enterprises, a fatty-liver factory farm that was later acquired by HVFG. That investigation revealed cruel force-feeding and countless sick ducks—including one whose maggot-covered neck wound was so severe that water spilled out of it when he drank.
Decades have passed, but the cruelty continues.
We need your help now to end this cruelty.
Please take a moment and click here to request that Chef Ramsay do the right thing and ditch this disgusting product.

Tell the Senate: Keep Environmental Protections Along our National Borders
Wildlife could suffer if these unnecessary border security measures are enacted. |
Morning is over
and noon slouches on
Your stripes could all fade
in the poisonous day
When you see the sunlight
move out of the way
You prance with the beasts
who parade every night
And silently slouch
through the forest by light
Don’t be the only one left on the block
Come hide in the herd
and float with the flock
Ocelot! Ocelot!
Where are you now?
You never listen to me anyhow
You wandered and ambled
you walked, now you run
Knowing you’ll bake
like a snake in the sun
You prance with the beasts
you parade every night
And silently slouch
through the forest twilight
Don’t be the only one left on the block
Come hide in the heard
and float with the flock
You prance with the beasts
you parade every night
And silently slouch
through the forest twilight
Don’t be the only one left on the block
Come hide in the heard
and float with the flock
Ocelot! Ocelot!
Where have you gone?
(Won’t you come out to play?)
Ocelot! Ocelot!
Where have you gone?
(Won’t you come out to play?)
Ocelot! Ocelot!
Where have you gone?
(Won’t you come out to play?)
The wildlife that inhabit and migrate across our nation’s southern border continue to face constant threats.
Now the Senate Judiciary Committee is considering provisions in the current immigration bill that would expand authority for the Department of Homeland Security to ignore environmental protections when building various types of security infrastructure through sensitive wildlife habitat.
Provisions in this bill also call for the construction of additional border walls, that will damage and sever crucial and sensitive wildlife habitat.
Border security forces already have extensive authority to ignore conservation laws in their operations. These new provisions would add nothing to border security, but will almost certainly harm to the ecology of the region.
If these provisions are approved:
These measures could impact important wildlife habitats and public lands along the border, including Coronado National Forest and San Bernardino National Wildlife Refuge in Arizona, and Lower Rio Grande Valley National Wildlife Refuge in Texas.
Species like the jaguar, ocelot, jaguarondi and other cross-border wildlife could find their paths blocked and their homes cut into fragments by newly-constructed walls, fences and roads that cut them off from others of their kind.
