Ardream patch 1300

As of a. It all started at p. Sunday when Pasadena firefighters were called to the Union 76 gas station at Glenarm Street and Arroyo Seco Parkway after a vehicle crashed into a gasoline pump, Derderian said. An emergency shutoff valve malfunctioned and the power was cut to the building, she said. About 1, gallons of unleaded gasoline leaked out.

Pasadena and Los Angeles County Hazmat units arrived at the scene to handle the cleanup, she said. County Public Works crews were tasked with handling flood maintenance outside the city limits. Alhambra police said the spill left a lingering gas smell, which was expected to dissipate sometime late Sunday night or early this morning.

Residents near the spill sites were advised to stay inside their residences with the windows and doors closed, Derderian said. Niko's Pizzeria is now taking orders for the Greek chicken dinners. Saturday, Niko's already had Greek chicken orders placed. We repaired the oven, so we're hoping everything goes smoothly like we plan. Even though the mid-afternoon broken oven managed to delay hundreds of Greek chicken orders on Oct.

Lippas strongly urges customers to call in their orders this weekend, or Tuesday, when he reopens. Lippas said he likes his chances of selling 1, Greek chicken meals. That will be the only food his restaurant will offer Wednesday. He will open at a. Niko says it's been repaired. John Ferak , Patch Staff.

The skis are not identical, but we should not expect them to be. The skis are handmade, not mass-produced. They have a long and individual history of wear and repair before an Iron Age skier used them together and they ended up in the ice years ago. Prehistoric skis with preserved bindings are exceedingly rare. In fact, when the first ski appeared in , it was just the second such ski in the world.

The pair of skis from the Digervarden ice patch is the best-preserved prehistoric pair of skis in the world! There are other prehistoric ski pairs, but none of them have the binding preserved. The binding is crucial. Without the binding, it is much harder to tell how the skis were used. The new ski brought an answer to the question of fur-lining that arose from the ski find. But we are no closer to answers to the two big questions that remain: who was the person who left behind the skis and what happened?

There are numerous finds from reindeer hunting at the Digervarden ice patch, both artifacts and ancient monuments. It would therefore be easy to link the skis to hunting activities. However, during the recovery of the ski, the team noted the presence of several cairns in the area.

They may belong to an ancient mountain trail crossing the ice patch near the find spot of the skis. We found an 18 th century sled in roughly the same area in This opens the possibility that the skis could be related to high mountain transport as well.

So, we do not know whether the owner was a hunter or a traveler or both. Trying to understand what happened years ago at Mount Digervarden remains speculation at this point. With that caveat, there are several possible scenarios. Did a hunter leave behind the skis? Maybe a sudden snowfall could have buried them beyond recovery? This is perhaps not so likely. Presumably, the hunter would have placed the skis upright in the snow to make it easy to spot them coming back.

A small avalanche could perhaps be the culprit. Another possibility is that there was an accident. Maybe the skier fell and destroyed the toe bindings in the fall? The skis could no longer be used and were left behind. An argument against this explanation is that the skies must have had a significant value. One of them had repairs. In addition, they have holes at the front which would have made it easy to drag them behind in a rope when exiting the mountains. So why leave them behind when they could have been brought along and repaired in the lowlands?

Perhaps there was an accident that left the Iron Age skier dead or seriously injured? Is the skier still inside the ice at Mount Digervarden? This is probably hoping for too much. What we can say for sure is that we have not seen the last finds from the Digervarden ice patch.

We will be back. You can read about the first Digervarden ski and other ski finds from the ice here.
