USA: WASHINGTON: 'STORM OF THE CENTURY': 2ND UPDATE
English/Nat
Eastern areas of the United States came to a standstill Sunday as the country faced what weather experts called the 'storm of the century'.
Powerful snow storms were expected to dump up to three feet (one metre) of snow in Washington and other major cities.
President Bill Clinton braved the blizzards to venture out of the White House.
A thick carpet of snow blanketed the White House as America's 'storm of the century' tore into Washington.
One weather expert described it as a storm of 'historic proportions'.
President Clinton and the First Lady left the White House to attend church, braving the blizzards and joking with reporters.
But the White House cancelled the latest round of budget talks with Republican leaders scheduled for today because of the storm.
The snow hit the capital only a day after official Washington had agreed to end a record 21-day partial government shutdown.
Officials are advising people to stay inside and avoid driving until the massive storm subsides.
Forecasters are warning of more heavy snow, high winds and blinding white-out conditions across the mid-Atlantic.
All through the day emergency crews struggled through the capital's streets to handle critical calls.
SOUNDBITE:
...It's getting' real rough...Apparently we're in for a lot worse. But....the roads are getting' real rough, making it real hard for everybody to get where we need to go.
SUPER CAPTION: Brandon Graham, Washington paramedic.
Medical staff at this city hospital are bracing for a long day and night on the job.
SOUNDBITE:
We're seeing a lot of emergencies here today. It started off really slow, and just here within the last few minutes we've had two patients that needed to be intubated (insert tube into trachea). We had a fellow come in about 30 minutes ago with an acute M-I (heart attack) so we're seeing some real sick people here today.
SUPER CAPTION: Kimberly Lambert, emergency room nurse, George Washington University Hospital.
Prospects for a return to normal workdays for federal workers look doubtful, with the storm expecting to last well into Monday.
Museums that just reopened yesterday are closed once again.
But some tourists braved the cold as today was their only chance to see America's official landmarks following a long journey.
SOUNDBITE:
And....we no it's all closed...No? Because there is problems with the pay for the government and it's winter.....So, we will try to visit the rest of the places here.
SUPER CAPTION: Argentine tourist
Others saw the snow as an opportunity to get out their winter sporting gear and ski through downtown Washington.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
North Cascades National Park is an American national park in the state of Washington. At more than 500,000 acres (200,000 ha), North Cascades National Park is the largest of the three National Park Service units that comprise the North Cascades National Park Complex. North Cascades National Park consists of a northern and southern section, bisected by the Skagit River that flows through Ross Lake National Recreation Area. Lake Chelan National Recreation Area lies on the southern border of the south unit of the park. In addition to the two national recreation areas, other protected lands including several national forests and wilderness areas, as well as Canadian provincial parks in British Columbia, nearly surround the park. North Cascades National Park features the rugged mountain peaks of the North Cascades Range, the most expansive glacial system in the contiguous United States, the headwaters of numerous waterways, and vast forests with the highest degree of flora biodiversity of any American national park.
The region was first settled by Paleo-Indian Native Americans; by the time European American explorers arrived it was inhabited by Skagit tribes. By the early 19th century, the region was visited by fur trappers and several British and American companies vied for control over the fur trade. After the international boundary between Canada and the United States was set at the 49th parallel in 1846, explorers came to chart potential routes through the mountains for roads and railroads. Limited mining and logging occurred from the late 19th century to the early 20th century. The first significant human impact in the region occurred in the 1920s, when several dams were built in the Skagit River valley to generate hydroelectric power. Environmentalists then campaigned to preserve the remaining wilderness, culminating on October 2, 1968, with the designation of North Cascades National Park.
Heavy snows and a high risk of avalanches due to the steep terrain, especially on the western slopes, severely limit visitation in the winter. Most access to the park is from State Route 20, which follows the Skagit River, though even this road is closed for months at a time in the winter. Most of the plant and animal species native to the park region are still found there, though climate change and pollutants from industrialized regions to the west pose risks to the environment. The park has one of the earliest and longest lasting research programs dedicated to studying climate change, primarily through examining the effects of glacial retreat.
North Cascades National Park is almost entirely protected as wilderness, and so the park has few structures, roads or other improvements. Visitors wishing to drive to a campground must do so in the adjacent national forests or national recreation areas. Camping inside the park requires hiking in by trail, horseback or boat, and camping is regulated by a permit system to ensure the wilderness is not over-exploited. Mountaineering is popular in the park and only unobtrusive clean climbing is allowed.
