``` fire waterfall at Yosemite ```



``` fire waterfall at Yosemite ```
This park was gazetted as a national park in 1890. It is world famous for its rugged terrain, waterfall and century-old pine trees. It covers 1200 sq km and the "fire" waterfall of El Capitan is one of the most spectacular of all scenery.
The spectacular view of the waterfall is created by the reflection of sunlight hitting the falling water at a specific angle. This rare sight can only be seen at a 2-week period towards the end of Feburary. To photograph this rare event, photographers would often have to wait and endure years of patience in order to capture them. The reason is because its appearance depend on a few natural phenomenons occuring at the same time and luck.
1st, Is the formation of the waterfall - The water is formed by the melting of snow and ice at the top of the mountain. It melts between the month of December and January and by the end of February there might not have much snow left to melt.
2nd, is the specific angle of the sunray hitting the falling water - The sun's position must be exactly at a particular spot in the sky. This occur only in the month of February and at the short hours of dusk. If it is a day full of clouds or something blocking the sun, you can only take pictures of your own sorry faces on the waterfall. It coincides with the fact that the weather in the National Park at that time of the year is often volatile and unpredictable. It compounds to the difficulty of getting these pictures.
Someone did !!! And we all get to see it !!!

Internet in car,reads out emails facebook and twitter updates(Internet in car)

London: Scientists have developed what they say is the world's first "Internet Car" which can read out your emails, Facebook and Twitter updates.

The unique Rinspeed BamBoo car can also help motorists behind the wheel surf the net by using a series of voice commands.

To avail the facilities, drivers only need to attach their smart phones or iPads into a charger in the electric car before they set off, the Daily Mail reported.

Designed by global audio and infotainment group Harman, the vehicle also allows drivers to search radio stations with voice commands using it's special "infotainment" technology.

The car was unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show recently.

According to Harman, the first cars fitted with the technology could be on the road within 18 months.

Spokeswoman Kay Robinson said: "The technology is designed to prevent the driver being distracted by texts and emails.

"Through voice commands the computer reads a person's messages to them as they drive."

The car is compatible with all smart phones, iPads and Blackberry devices. Twitter updates, Facebook messages and instant texts can all be accessed by the driver while the car is moving.

It also comes fitted with its own Wi-Fi transmitter allowing passengers to use their laptops or mobile devices

"At the moment, when a driver receives a text or an email or even a Twitter update they have to pull over to read it," said Robinson.

"This technology means they can be kept up to date without taking their hands off the wheel or their eyes off the road," she added.
