Jun 1st, 2012 at 8:00AM: One of the great annual traditions at Denali National Park is the arrival of a new litter of sled dog pups. The park, which is located in Alaska's spectacular and remote wilderness, maintains its own sled dog team for use in patrolling the region throughout the long winter months. Without these teams much of Denali would not be accessible for portions of the year, which makes these trusty canines ...Statue of Liberty getting five webcams for 125th anniversary

The project stationed a number of webcams throughout the park, allowing visitors to check in on the various sites from the comfort of their own homes.
Now, the park has ...Robbed tourists in Barcelona to get justice via webcam
May 14th, 2008 at 2:40PM: I generally find Spain very laid back and relatively lagging in the world of technology -- it's what I often enjoy about being here. It's somehow possible to stay away from the high-tech hysteria everywhere else, be it use of technology in your personal life (I don't know anyone here who cares about the iPhone), or in the professional sector (when I went to pick up my resident card in Madrid, my ...Watch Bill Drive from San Francisco to LA

Jan 6th, 2007 at 9:30PM: It's always a safe bet to pause newspaper and mail delivery to your home while you're on an extended holiday.

While these tips may ward off criminals, what do you do if the unthinkable does occur while you're thousands of miles away? Well, one Brazilian man must've been glad he ...
