River Cam

The River Cam is the main river flowing through Cambridge in eastern England. After leaving Cambridge, it flows north and east into the Great Ouse to the south of Ely at Pope's Corner. The Great Ouse connects the Cam to the North Sea at King's Lynn: The total distance from Cambridge to the sea is about 40 mi (64 km) and is navigable for punts, small boats, and rowing craft. The Great Ouse also connects to England's canal system via the Middle Level Navigations and the River Nene.

Name

The original name of the river was the Granta and (unusually) its present name derives from the city of Cambridge (Old English: Grantebrycge) rather than the other way around: After the city's present name developed in Middle English, the river's name was backformed to match. This was not universally applied, however, and the upper stretch of the river continues to be informally known as the Granta. It has been said that the river is the "Granta" above the Silver Street Bridge (in Cambridge) and the "Cam" below it. The Rhee tributary is also formally known as the Cam, and the Granta has a tributary on its upper stretch also known as the Granta.

    Spring-loaded camming device

    A spring-loaded camming device (also SLCD, cam or friend) is a piece of rock climbing or mountaineering protection equipment. It consists of two, three, or four cams mounted on a common axle or two adjacent axles, so that pulling on the axle forces the cams to spread farther apart. This is then attached to a sling and carabiner at the end of the stem. The SLCD is used by pulling on the "trigger" (a small handle) so the cams move together, then inserting it into a crack or pocket in the rock and releasing the trigger to allow the cams to expand. A pull on the rope, such as that generated by a climber falling, will cause a properly placed SLCD to convert the pulling force along the stem of the unit into outwards pressure on the rock, generating massive amounts of friction and preventing the removal of the unit from the rock. Because of the large forces which are exerted on the rock when an SLCD is fallen on, it is very important that SLCDs are only placed in solid, strong rock.

    by: Kem

    I'm sittin' here thinkin' about you tonight
    And all that you mean to me
    I used to think I would never fall in love again
    I guess I was wrong
    When your heart was broken
    When your wounded pride was laid to rest, baby
    You'll never open your heart to anyone else you said
    But you lied, I know you're lyin' tome
    You see your mind might be made up, mmm
    But your heart has got it's own plans
    There's no one to blame for false pride, tellin' lies,
    tryin' to hide
    From feelin' the pain, I know you don't wanna feel it
    There's nowhere to hide when the love is callin' your
    name, yeah
    From the dark, babe, nowhere to hide, baby
    There's nowhere to hide, so let love have it's way
    with your heart
    When love calls, love calls, love calls your name
    It's on my lips
    And I wish that you were still here
    To take me away with your kiss
    And take me away from all this crazy, crazy
    'Cause too many words have been spoken, mmm
    Too many lies have been told, baby
    You'll never do it again you told yourself over and
    over and over
    You're wrong, dead wrong, babe, yeah
    There's nowhere to hide, mmm, when love is callin'
    your name
    In from the dark, baby, nowhere to run, girl
    There's nowhere to hide, yeah, so let love have its
    way, girl, with your heart, babe
    Love calls, love calls
    There's nowhere to hide, yeah, when love calls your
    name
    You fall apart, baby
    Nowhere to hide, nowhere to run when love is on its
    way, girl, to your heart, baby
    When love calls, love calls your name, babe
    Love's callin' your name, hey, hey
    It's callin' out for, callin' out for me, baby
    Love's on its way, baby, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
