Those campsites are well spaced out!

Which Murphy's campsite? A? Murphy's A is the most BEAUTIFUL campsite down there. You're on the highest point inside the Rim--the views are jaw-dropping,...

It seems the main issue for Rabobank was that Rasmussen lied about where he was training, and not the missed tests per se. He told everyone he was in Mexico around the time when the UCI was trying to...

Heard this a few days ago on the news. UAC is short $30,000 for this year. I guess they are trying to get more funding from the Utah legislature--which should be about as easy as squeezing blood...

I lived in Philly for a while. I have not found a good cheesesteak outside of Philly--NONE. Part of it is because of the buns...no one can make buns as good as Amorosos.

I've been to Moochies,...

Wow, amazing timing. My GF and her family just did Paria Canyon and were ONE day behind y'all. They hiked out on Tuesday, 9/26. What a small world!

BTW, they loved it there too. They spent...

Just Mid-Mountain basically between PCMR and The Canyons (i.e., west of Spiro). It doesn't affect the rest of Mid-Mountain at all.

I don't know if everyone knows this (I didn't), but the seemingly yearly closure of Mid-Mountain is in effect. Mid-Mountain was open on weekends only from mid-September until October 1. After October...

I've stayed at the Colorado National Monument park. It's a bit out of the way, as you have to drive south of Fruita then up to the top of the mesa. It's especially far from the Road 18 trails,...

Just came back from a few days in Moab. I'd HIGHLY recommend getting down there soon. The weather is PERFECT--70s during the day, 40s at night. We rode Porcupine and Slickrock the first day, and...

Your only picks for 4wd wagons with a manual in the U.S. are the Audi A4, BMW 325xi/530xi, Subaru Impreza/Legacy, Volvo V50--and that's it...

If you could stomach an auto (I couldn't), there's the...

Since this has been deemed gender-neutral, I'd be interested in joining y'all Monday morning. I live in SLC, have a car with 3 racks on it, and don't mind shuttling.

Where and when would be the...

I agree that our health care system is a total mess. But there are two other issues aside from the uninsured that are contributing to it.

First, physicians are paid more to "do" than to "think." ...

I went there last year for the first time. It's a lot of fun. The first day we did Mary's Loop, and the second day we did Chutes-n'-Ladders. Mary's was a little technical in spots--a few very...

I've had a Blur with a 5th for about 10 months now. I dunno if I've been one of the lucky ones, but I've had no problems with my shock so far (/knock on wood). My girlfriend has a Blur with a 5th...

Dunno if this is your exact virus, but look here. Follow the instructions for the Trojan.Qwe too as it talks about how to remove the keystroke logger from your computer and registry.

Good luck.

Alta rocked today. About time. :D

Best part about it was there was NO ONE there.

P.S. Thanks for buying that bike and bringin' the snow, AG! ;)

LOL, I had a feeling you'd get the Yeti. ;) Have a blast on that thing!

Oh ya, snow in the forecast for tomorrow. Thanks!

I'd watch out with the Slayer. I've heard that it's a great bike, but that it also has a problem with chainstays breaking and pivot problems.

Try Bike Peddler in AF for Santa Cruz bikes. They seem to move a lot of them. The last time I was there (a while ago) they had several Blurs, Superlights, Julianas, and Hecklers in stock. My GF...

On the way to buying your Yeti, you could try a Kona Coiler. It's got a SPV Propedal, 5" of travel, and costs $1,600. I haven't ridden one, but it seems to be getting some good press.

Good luck.

I think the main question is how much you want to spend. It's hard to get a good, new full suspension bike for less than US$1,200 or so. Full suspension bikes for less than that tend to be REALLY...

Where on Shoreline is clear? I did Dry Creek to past Bobsled, and there was quite a bit of snow still. Spent prolly 1/2 the time off my bike hiking through the snow. My feet got quite cold, heh. ...

My current ride--a SC Blur with some authentic Moabian mud from last weekend that I've been too lazy to wash off. I'm switching to disk brakes soon! WOO!
...

Just went to Moab last weekend (3/13 to 3/14), and it was AWESOME!!! Sunny and 70 degrees both days. Did Porcupine Rim on day one, which was great (although the first climb made me painfully aware...

The thing is if we didn't have 150,000+ troops in Iraq (where they aren't doing much good on the "War" on terror), we might have been able to dedicate more troops to go to where the "real" terrorists...

Here's the thing. Fast food restaurants are not passive actors in all of this. In fact, they spend billions of dollars each year that target people to eat their food (i.e., unhealthily). And I'm...

You may think it's not a big deal, but the fast-food companies are worried about class-action law suits over this stuff. Especially as our society gets more obese.

So what do they do? Not try to...

I dunno how to feel about this lift. I think it'll more likely lead to stuff off the high-T getting skiied out even faster than it does now. With this new configuration, Baldy/Ballroom laps will...

Maybe they meant 66 degrees...Fahrenheit.

Maybe they're really FAT snowlerblades...

A vote for Nader is, for all practical purposes, a vote for Bush.

My mom voted Nader to make a "statement" last election. I talked to her this weekend--she learned her lession. She's so...

Most states with ski resorts have "boilerplate" laws that prevent individuals from suing ski resorts, even in cases of gross negligence. However, IIRC, California does not. Are these laws really...

Eeek, delayed double post.

/shakes fist at this new-fangled internet thing

I was there! (albeit a little later @ 9:30 'cause I had to drop someone off at work in the AM).

I'll be more generous with the info. Today was verrrry good. :) Keyhole was open too--really...

0.26 seconds on my first try! WOO! What do I win? :p

It's probably this. Eight years--how heartbreaking. :(

Merck Shares Fall After Company Drops Diabetes Drug

Part of the reason that drugs are so expensive here is the amount of money drug companies spend on marketing. The amount spent is astronomical. It's not only free pens and trinkets. In nearly...

I agree with Altagirl--a reference card would be good, especially in a high-stress, but rare situation.

I know in ACLS situations there is usually an ALCS card on the crash cart with algorithms,...

Thanks Owens. I just ordered a bit off the site too.

I saw Mystic River last week. It was an okay movie--not as good as a few of the reviews hyped it up to be. Sean Penn was actually the best actor in the movie, by far, which surprised the shit out...

Saw it today. I must say it sucked. I loved the first one. (Who didn't?) When I first saw Reloaded in the theater, I was let down. But since, I've bought the DVD, and watched it a bunch of...

Glad to hear it went well. Hope they got it all out.

As for pain meds, next time ask for Demerol. It's supposed to give the best "high"--ah, or so I've heard. :D Where I used to work, the pain...

Wow, that's huge. I remember in college everyone who wanted to take Southwest for interviews had to go down to Baltimore. Most still found it cheaper to drive to MD and take Southwest than to leave...

Yes on winter tires. Look here. Blizzak WS-50 would be my recommendation.

I actually might be there tomorrow (Thursday). Ya, I know only dinky stuff is open, but my GF is leavin' town on Friday so it's the only chance we got to ski together for a bit. I'll likely be...

Wow, thanks ONS! I've always had trouble posting my favorite non-skiing photos. When I get home, I'll be sure to post a few.

Mine isn't very "stoke-y," but I guess I was in a meterological mood, heh. It's Hurricane Isabel from the ISS. (i.e., Your tax dollars at work!)
...

The only forecast that counts in SLC right HERE!

Since money is an issue and since you're not sure if you're going to ski a lot, I'd just stick with the Bird pass. The Bird has plenty of terrain for you to try on skis. Plus, much of the good...

Liz,


Sorry to hear about what happened. My thoughts are with you. Be strong (as you always are).

Also, you should know that melanoma is considered one of the more "treatable" cancers and...
