By rule it doesn't rain in the desert. It can't rain in the desert, right?
Wrong, and when it rains it pours, especially when driving through Arizona's Painted Desert on our way to the South Rim of the Grand Canyon.
A new national effort to counter the growing economic and social fragmentation in U.S. cities has awarded Memphis' Fourth Bluff project a $5 million grant.
The effort, called Reimagining the Civic Commons, is a partnership of four national foundations that seeks to foster civic engagement, economic opportunity and environmental sustainability by revitalizing and connecting parks, libraries, community centers and other public spaces.
It began on April 1, 2000. The much-anticipated diamond gem Downtown was open for business.
The Memphis Redbirds beat the St. Louis Cardinals 10-6 in an exhibition game before 15,000 fans at AutoZone Park. Former University of Memphis outfielder Mark Little, leading off and playing center field for Memphis, got the Redbirds' first hit in the new ballpark. Cardinals catcher Eli Marrero hit the first home run, a two-run blast onto the Bluff in left field.

Several other late-summer events precede the big gridiron season opener, including a concert fundraiser that starts Friday and a big 5K race on Labor Day. OK, that's next Monday – so it's a long week – better get those seersucker suits ready.
A set of 49 proposed route and service changes to the city's bus system are focused primarily on bus schedules in southwest Memphis and the Memphis International Airport area.
There are also eight new proposed routes and shuttle services.
Mixing tourism with the everyday life of our city is always going to be a bit risky. And the mix is relatively new to a Memphis that has really only had a recognized tourism industry for about 35 years.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) – In some parts of the U.S., the thrill rides that hurl kids upside down, whirl them around or send them shooting down slides are checked out by state inspectors before customers climb on. But in other places, they are not required to get the once-over.
Jalen Hurd knows right where he stands among Tennessee's running backs of the past and wants to be No. 1 in career rushing yards at the end of the 2016 season.
The junior from Hendersonville Beech High School needs 892 yards to surpass Travis Henry as UT's career rushing leader.
Before the rain did its thing Monday night at Graceland, the latest Black Lives Matter movement protest was a fact at Graceland's annual candlelight vigil.
Some tension and lots of noise on the line at Elvis Presley and Craft where police stopped those whom they identified as protesters. And more than a few allegations of racial profiling by police.
The 27th annual Dragon Fly Sprint Triathlon, presented by P.R. Event Management LLC, is scheduled for Aug. 27 in Sardis, Miss. The event begins at 8 a.m. at Cypress Point on the Lower Lake at Sardis Reservoir with a half-mile swim, followed by an 18-mile bike course through the country and finishes with a 4-mile run along a woodland trail.
Rhodes College junior Will Cobb, a computer science major, still can't believe it.
He's a budding app developer and the creator of Go Radar, an iOS-only smartphone app that's a companion to the Pokemon Go augmented reality mobile game that's become a smash around the world. Cobb's app works in tandem with that game by helping players find Pokemon creatures – and as a measure of how popular the game itself is, the halo from it has sent Cobb's app likewise shooting up the iOS top app rankings.
Council chairman Kemp Conrad noted the timing is "hot off Overton Park and the Greensward" – the protracted controversy the council was heavily involved in. "I do think it's going to move fast one way or another," Conrad said Tuesday, Aug. 9, of the concept of a new Wiseacre brewery in the Coliseum.
The appointment of Michael Rallings as the permanent Memphis Police Director goes to the Memphis City Council Tuesday for what is expected to be a unanimous vote.
Rallings and Memphis Mayor Jim Strickland talked about the appointment – the only major appointment in Strickland's inner circle left seven months into his term as mayor – during a press conference Monday morning in the Hall of Mayors.
For an election that only 14 percent of us turned out for, the Thursday elections in Shelby County delivered in terms of political drama.
David Kustoff, whose bid for Congress in the old 7th Congressional District 14 years ago ended in frustration amidst too many primary candidates from Shelby County, claimed the Republican primary in the 8th amidst an even larger field with even more Shelby County rivals.
Election Day arrives in Shelby County.
And this election cycle, in the shadow of the November Presidential general election, has turned out to be pretty interesting.
For Jernigan Capital, the newest Memphis-based public company that provides capital to self-storage entrepreneurs, the period between April and June saw the company achieve a handful of firsts.
Among the results for the second quarter, the company grew its net income to $5.4 million, up significantly from $1.1 million in the first quarter and reversing a Q2 2015 loss of $558,000. The second quarter was also the first time since the company's April 2015 initial public offering that total income surpassed overhead costs.
A few hours before St. Louis Cardinals prospect Alex Reyes took the mound at AutoZone Park, Memphis Redbirds manager Mike Shildt confided that it was a good time to "back him off" – or hold down his pitch count.
It's obvious when there are a lot children at AutoZone Park. Even the most harmless infield popup prompts a collective shriek and the hope of a home run.
The long ball may not be what it was at the peak of baseball's steroid era when Barry Bonds, Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa were cartoon characters, but the game has not turned away from the notion of driving the ball.
It's not easy being green. That is, until people begin to see projects like the Shelby Farms Greenline and Wolf River Greenway taking shape.
Almost every George Lapides story, at least for those of us working in Memphis sports media, begins with those first impressions after arriving in town.
His town.
Seeing George take over an interview or a press conference and putting on his own full-court press when the subject was trying to skate by with lame, say-nothing answers.

Alright, Memphis, it's time to get this week started with our roundup of happenings you need to know about.
The 2016 Memphis In May International Festival closes out Saturday with a pair of new additions to the monthlong lineup.The Saturday by the river begins with the Great American River Run – a half-marathon and a 5K run with a riverside and Downtown route. There is, of course, a post-race party, which then segues into 901Fest – four stages in Tom Lee Park featuring local music and arts, from Al Kapone and Frayser Boy to the North Mississippi Allstars to Opera Memphis and the New Ballet Ensemble & School.The idea here, and it may be an evolving concept, seems to be local and diverse and not as much of an emphasis on the stages and what happens there at the expense of those who stay after the run and those who come for the music and the arts.To dot the I on that point, 901Fest also includes an air show.
For everything else opera might be, Ned Canty has made it his business to see opera as opportunity.
The general director for Opera Memphis, when Canty came to town five years ago the company was in decline.
Even now, Explore Bike Share founder Doug Carpenter does not try to pretend that the initiative will cure all that ails Memphis.
It won't wipe out poverty. It can't cure cancer. It won't eliminate diabetes and obesity, solve all of the city's transportation problems or totally bridge cultural and racial gaps that predate the bicycle's invention.
It looks like the dry rub will be in order for Memphis in May's barbecue weekend with a shower or two keeping the dust down in Tom Lee Park Wednesday.
If you can see it through the smoke, Mud Island might strike a first-tme observer as a marked contrast to all of the activity in Tom Lee Park that goes right up to the bluff's edge.
At the end of March with much secrecy, Rev. Keith Norman took delivery and responsibility for a large, heavy crate that stayed in his office for the next month.
"Don't tell anybody, don't let anybody get it, if they come in and say they work for the park commission or anybody, tell them to show identification," were the instructions said Norman, who is president of the Memphis Branch NAACP.
Although two quarterbacks – Jared Goff and Carson Wentz – were the first two players selected in last weeks' NFL Draft, an Ole Miss offensive lineman and the 13th overall pick made most of the headlines.
2015: Formal opening of Bass Pro Shops at The Pyramid, an adaptation of a former 20,000-seat arena that took a decade to pull off. City leaders approached Bass Pro Shops about opening a store with other attractions in the arena after a look at other adaptive reuses of arenas across the country.
I've never watched an NFL draft before Thursday evening's in which Paxton Lynch, quarterback for the University of Memphis, was drafted by the Super Bowl champion Denver Broncos as the 26th pick of the first round.
Prince. It's hard to think of a musician with a more complete knowledge of music as a social and cultural force and the ability to let that force inhabit his music and what he wanted to accomplish.It is that knowledge and its use from obscurity to the pinnacle of fame and acclaim to his own journey for personal fulfillment that, to me, defines what has been lost.Music mattered to Prince unlike it had ever mattered before. All of the influences analyzed and synthesized by someone born in rock and roll's first wave pushed forward in a sound that combined rock and roll and rhythm and blues and funk with purpose and confidence.It wasn't a denial or downplaying of any of those music categories – all were present sonically and culturally. No juggling or quick changes.That was his talent and it's hard to think of anyone who has been as knowledgeable, intentional and successful -- commercially and artistically – in that combination.Prince is remembered here for not only playing the city's largest arenas but for his legendary after shows on Beale Street that brought an entertainment insider cachet the district has rarely seen since its early 1980s reopening.His was an intensity and sense of purpose rarely seen and possessed in such a way in the 60 years since rock and roll started in this very city, kicked off by both Rocket 88 and That's Alright Mama.So why couldn't the city's rock radio stations do more than talk about Prince into commercial breaks after another Nickelback rock block and actually play some of his music to acknowledge such a huge genre crossing artist?Not cool.
For those who stopped watching in the fourth quarter, The Grizzlies lost to the Spurs 106-74 in San Antonio Sunday to open the NBA's second season. If you put together the second and fourth quarters it would have been close. But oh the first and third quarters.
It was just four weeks ago that all of this talk about change at the top of the Tiger basketball chart was put to rest. Coach Josh Pastner's performance was reviewed by the University of Memphis administration and he was staying at least for another season. Four weeks to the day of that announcement, Pastner is the new coach at Georgia Tech and we are in the first day of the Tubby Smith era at the U of M.
To best understand another man's baseball passion, you must first understand his baseball pain. So if you hope to truly understand Peter B. Freund, new majority owner of the Memphis Redbirds, you must travel back to his youth.
Memphis College of Art has confirmed the consolidation of its Downtown campus with its Overton Park campus and will begin relevant construction over the summer.
That construction includes converting five MCA-owned apartment buildings around the Overton Park campus into studios for use in the graduate program.
Not so fast with the off-season. There is a Memphis post-season after all.
And the Grizz found it Thursday like a light at the end of a long-tunnel where a lot of people slipped and fell and can't get up.The light was Houston flaming out at home to Phoenix without the Grizzlies having to make a basket.It's all about the math. Stay in school, young people.
2000: Opening day at AutoZone Park.
1964: Among the new privilege licenses listed in The Daily News: The Hippodrome Lounge at 498 Beale St., a reminder that while the current Beale Street Entertainment District stretches between Second and Fourth streets, over the decades it has taken in land east and west of those current boundaries.
And in less than a half hour Wednesday, the de-annexation drama that should qualify as the political equivalent of a Netflix binge-watchable television series made just for Memphis was done.
George Howard Putt died in prison sometime last year state prison officials disclosed Wednesday -- far from the brief time he spent in Memphis but never far from the carnage he left behind in the Memphis of 1969.The bodies of the first two of the five people killed by Putt between Aug. 14 and Sept. 11, 1969 were discovered just days after the murders of actress Sharon Tate and six others in Los Angeles by the Manson family dominated national news coverage. Less than a year earlier the Boston Strangler movie was in theaters, creating a sensation about the murders committed by serial killer Albert DeSalvo in Boston just a few years earlier.Bernalyn and Roy Dumas were strangled by Putt in their home in Cooper-Young and Putt mutilated her body in a way that police homicide detectives still wouldn't talk about decades later. The bodies were found in separate rooms.Even with no details other than the names of the victims, the city was quickly spooked by the double murder. So when the body of Leila Jackson was found short of two weeks later, the city's reaction was a palpable fear in which anyone unknown was to be avoided. Memphians didn't tarry after work. They went home and bolted the doors.It got worse as more victims turned up with little in common other than four of the five were women. They were of varying ages. Some were strangled and some were stabbed.Just about any magazine rack of the day include true crime magazines that by the late 1960s were beginning to look very dated in their lurid noir-like covers teasing the most sensational crime narratives of the day.They were an intentional contrast to the cover images of youth in bright colors in natural settings in other magazines heralding a new future and youth culture.The murders in a Southern city, whose 1969 conservatism is hard to describe nearly 50 years later, quickly grabbed the covers of the true crime magazines. And the images they offered spoke to the scenic reality where Putt roamed even as the murders continued.Apartment buildings and boarding houses were the settings for some of the murders but not all.Glenda Sue Harden was last seen walking to her car parked on the Cobblestones from the insurance office she worked at nearby. Her body was found in Martin Luther King/Riverside Park hidden under a piece of plywood.At one of the murder scenes, police found an ice pick stuck in the side of the building with a stocking tied around it.Putt's last victim, in an apartment building on Bellevue, screamed as she was stabbed repeatedly and others in the building gave chase with police close behind, arresting Putt near the new and unopened section of the interstate that runs west of Bellevue.Putt tried to force his way into another apartment nearby but the women inside kept him on the other side of the door.The killer that panicked an entire city was a skinny utterly forgettable guy in his 20s with sideburns and glasses who appeared to have rarely roamed beyond a community of neighborhood bars, boarding houses and old apartment buildings in the Midtown and Medical Center areas.It turns out he came to Memphis after walking away from a prison farm in Mississippi and into a Memphis that was slowly but surely changing. And the world that Putt encountered would soon vanish in large part.Overton Square's incarnation was about a year away. A new bridge was about to be built across the Mississippi River as part of Interstate 40 which was to go through Overton Park just south of the north-south leg of the interstate where Putt was captured.Originally sentenced to death, Putt's sentence was commuted when the U.S. Supreme Court banned the death penalty in the early 1970s.He was serving a 497-year sentence when he died at the Turney Center Wednesday in Only, Tennessee.Putt never sought parole and never gave any explanation for why he killed five people in less than a month and his apparently random selection of victims.
Let the coaching drumbeat resume after the Tigers Sunday post-season collapse one game past Tulsa.A confession here – I am so sports challenged that I thought UConn was a team from Alaska until I saw it spelled out.In my defense, who associates Huskies with Connecticut?My point is what happens next isn't just about basketball. It's about a change with a good track record of being emotional in the worst way.It's linked to how we want to be known for treating people and what they think of us as a result of that.In those two areas, it's never just business. It's always personal.Josh Pastner's four predecessors were each very different case studies in this regard.It could have been any stop in any city with a basketball court and a one-and-done star he could find and recruit to John Calipari. But he still had to hide under a blanket in the back seat of a car on the way to the airport and lie about it long after everyone knew.Knew about the Kentucky job that is. The mess he left at the university would surface shortly thereafter.Tic Price was two fast seasons and the proof that the Memphis job isn't just about what happens on the court and the attendance at games.Price was clearly excited about coming to Memphis. He clearly understood the importance and heritage of Tigers basketball and valued it. And he wasted no time at all getting lost in the Memphis that is not a part of that all encompassing world.It was the only job Larry Finch wanted and ultimately the job he couldn't continue to have. That after ignoring conventional wisdom as a player and coming from Melrose High to Memphis State, bringing a beloved team with him and then picking Memphis again in the ABA over the Lakers in the NBA.None of that was considered in pushing him out the door and then naming a building after him.Dana Kirk wanted to be the hustler John Calipari was. He was certainly impersonal enough about it and he took the team to an era where a post-season NCAA bid was expected and is still expected to this day.But his impersonality exacted a high cost and he paid most of that cost. Although you could argue the experience for his team that produced some legendary players also made some of them legendary casualties of his emotional distance. It didn't allow him to go elsewhere because he never figured out that he was being underestimated just as much as the team whose needs he ignored was in the national view of college basketball. While Calipari dodged big trouble twice, Kirk wasn't even in Calipari's league when it came to ducking and timing.We are past our inferiority complex. That's what the last NFL drive of the 1990s did for us. But it's not necessarily a bad thing that we see the people chosen to occupy these very public positions as a reflection to the world of who we are.
Democratic state Rep. Mike Stewart lives on the front lines of the Tennessee General Assembly. As chairman of the House Democratic Caucus with 26 members, Stewart could employ a bunker mentality, but instead has chosen to take the fight to the other side of the aisle.
Lots of news on a very rainy day including the flooding from the constant rain that closed some schools and cancelled a lot of other events. And then there was a mudslide on Riverside Drive from the bluff overlooking Tom Lee Park and the Mississippi River. The rain has also pushed the Wolf River to the point that it is now over some parts of the greenway in Germantown.
How was your weekend, Memphis? In a few short days it'll be time to "spring forward" – but let's not get ahead of ourselves. First, check out our weekly roundup of area happenings, from a discussion with local changemakers to the inaugural Memphis Black Restaurant Week…

Can You Feel It? Tuesday is election day in Memphis and across the state in this presidential election year. And all indications are the turnout locally should be above the 24 percent mark we've been at in the last two presidential election years.
We probably haven't had this much action with so many presidential candidates in the Memphis area since the 1984 Democratic presidential primary campaign.
Four of the contenders – three Republicans and one Democrat – in Memphis over the weekend looking for votes in advance of Tuesday's Tennessee primary elections.

The Trump balloons were a late arrival to the Shelby County Republican party's annual Lincoln Day Gala, the local party's largest annual fundraiser.
They were an unsubtle accent in a room of 500 people where unabashed hand-to-hand campaigning kept the buzz of conversation at a steady level for most of the evening.
Neil Young, Beck, Paul Simon, Train and Modest Mouse are among the headliners for the 2016 Beale Street Music Festival, April 29-May 1, in Tom Lee Park.
The Republican presidential field is coming this way in the gap between early voting, which ends Tuesday evening, and the March 1 election dayDonald Trump, John Kasich and Ben Carson are booked for this coming weekend.
Legal counter claims, parking study options and lots of old maps with even more long-filed plans have become the complex face of the Overton Park Greensward controversy.
As spring-like temperatures over the weekend mixed with cloudy skies, all fronts of the controversy were moving. The official arrival of spring to come in less than a month is the park's busiest season.
You can't tell the players – or the owners – without a scorecard.
That's the recent history of what is presently called the Memphis Open presented by ServiceMaster.
It is, specifically speaking, an ATP World Tour 250 event.
The Land Use Control Board has approved initial outlines for a 57-acre planned development north of Shelby Farms Park.
The public's first chance to comment Tuesday, Feb. 9, on a set of 35 interim changes to Memphis' bus schedule sounded like an auction.
There were questions that began with numbers – route numbers that would change directions and streets or the frequency of service. And there were a lot of numbers to consider.
Bert Bertelkamp would be the first to tell you he's pulling for Tennessee when calling basketball games as color commentator for the Vol Network.
And why wouldn't he?
Bertelkamp is Big Orange to the bone. His father Hank played for the Vols (1951-53), was a team captain and remains a big supporter of UT.
Everybody talks about the weather but nobody does anything about it – isn't that how the saying goes?In our case, it might be better to say everybody talks about the television weather coverage but nobody does anything about it.As we all know now, Memphis dodged the "blizzard" warning artfully and passive-aggressively teased by several television stations who shall go un-named here because they know who they are and you do too.That's because they spent much of the day of "the blizzard that wasn't" whining about the reaction from viewers who complained about the hype and then the promos the stations ran the day of the big fizzle.We didn't get much in the way of snow in Memphis, but we got a couple of feet of hype.
Way back in the 1990s, perhaps before the Grizzlies and FedExForum were even a twinkle in anyone's eye, Chris Wallace came to Memphis and The Pyramid for a preseason NBA game featuring Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls.
Mud Island's neighbor to the east is interested in redeveloping the river park.
Bass Pro Shops is among the five companies that have submitted proposals to the Riverfront Development Corp. to oversee Mud Island River Park. And all five have advanced to a second round of the process without the RDC releasing details of the material they submitted.
Fort Lauderdale screams "Hello Sunny," but the tourism slogan isn't necessary to get the point across for visitors once they arrive. It's undeniable when stepping out from the airport to prepare for a few days in this South Florida hotspot.
Munford! A winning Powerball ticket for the largest jackpot ever was sold in Munford and that warrants a rare exclamation mark.Possibly two when you consider that small towns are supposed to be places where it is nearly impossible to keep a secret – at least from the other folks in the town.The fact that it was sold at Naifeh's, a long-standing Tipton County business institution adds to the story.The person who bought the ticket in Munford holds one of three winning tickets which comes out to about $582 million for that ticket.That is roughly the size of the city of Memphis operating budget.There was a similar mystery underway Thursday in Dyersburg where someone bought a Powerball ticket worth a paltry $2 million. Probably worth an exclamation mark if I wasn't over the limit and already feeling the unspoken disdain of my reporting brethren who are judging me harshly as you read this.
It may be chilly outside, but it might as well be July on the Overton Park greensward with all of the political heat that is building.The thermometer spiked when more than two dozen trees donated to the Overton Park Conservancy in 2012 were removed this week by the Memphis Zoo which is preparing for large crowds in March.That's when its new Zambezi Hippo River Camp exhibit opens to much anticipation and much fanfare.That and the New Year's Eve legal opinion favoring the zoo's position on its use of the greensward for overflow parking set the stage for a dispute the administration of Mayor Jim Strickland has had to mediate at less than two weeks in office.
The University of Memphis baseball program has never been shy about swinging for the fences when booking speakers for its annual Meet the Tigers Banquet. Past speakers include Hall-of-Famer George Brett, best-selling author John Grisham, and pitcher Jim Morris, who inspired the movie "The Rookie."
Football fans in Charlotte, N.C., have had a fun season watching the NFL's Carolina Panthers reel in 15 wins, a near perfect season, and secure the top playoff seed in their conference.

THE INS AND UNS OF OUR TRUTH. Truth is the truth. It isn't inconvenient, inconsistent or incomplete. It isn't uncomfortable or unpleasant and certainly not untrue.
But what we've made of the truth is all of those things.
Decades ago, the St. Louis Cardinals used their vast radio network to extend their brand across the middle of America. Even today, they have more than 130 affiliated stations in eight states.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) — Though only a short stretch of Little Rock's Confederate Boulevard remains, to some it is a glaring reminder of the city's checkered racial past.
City officials are expected to consider a petition Thursday to rename the boulevard's last few blocks after one of the area's first black property owners. Coincidentally, the planning commission's vote comes 58 years to the day that 1,200 troops arrived to escort nine black students to their first day of class during the integration of Central High School.

Tony Allen will throw out the first pitch at AutoZone Park and mascot Grizz will toe the rubber before a Cardinals game at Busch Stadium in St. Louis.
The Memphis Redbirds and Memphis Grizzlies play in different sports and at different levels, but for years the people running the teams acted as though they were quasi-rivals.
Change has been in the works for a while – the annual Cardinals Caravan was at FedExForum this winter when AutoZone Park was getting a makeover – but now a growing partnership is in even greater evidence.

WASHINGTON (AP) – The Republican-controlled House scrapped a vote on permitting the Confederate flag at Park Service-run cemeteries – including four in Tennessee – on Thursday, a retreat under fire that only escalated a ferocious attack by Democrats complaining the banner celebrates a murderous, racist past.
The Memphis Redbirds are running last in the 16-team Pacific Coast League's attendance race; the St. Louis Cardinals own the best record in the 30-team on-field competition run by Major League Baseball.
Memphis Blues Society and Overton Square will host a Bluesday Tuesday concert featuring John Nemeth with guest Eric Hughes Tuesday, June 23, from 6:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. in the Tower Courtyard, 2101 Madison Ave. Cost is free. Visit overtonsquare.com.
A result of a $2.6 million grant from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development and two years of planning, the pre-implementation phase of the Mid-South Regional Greenprint and Sustainability Plan is gaining momentum.
The Metal Museum will exhibit "A Kind of Confession," showcasing critical and contemporary metalwork from African-American artists, Saturday, June 20, through Sept. 11 at the museum, 374 Metal Museum Drive. Visit metalmuseum.org.
One funny man posted a picture of former St. Louis Cardinals pitcher Luther Hackman, deeming him a "person of interest."
Just about everyone took a swing at the Cardinals' tiresome Best Fans in Baseball moniker by pointing out that "you can't spell BFIB without FBI."
Sprawling across 37 acres of Collierville land, posh retirement community The Farms at Bailey Station will serve more than 500 senior residents when the final phase of construction is completed in 2016.
Pleased to meet you, hope you guessed our name. Well, hell, Mick, if it's puzzling you, it's Nashville. Music City USA.
We're the national media's flavor of the day – the "It city," which has gone from being a secondary concert market – remember The Beatles played Memphis, not Nashville – to one of the country's prime touring destinations.

Visit the Historic Sand Hills Lighthouse
If you enjoy historic lighthouses, visit the Sand Hills Lighthouse on Five Mile Point Road near Ahmeek. This historic lighthouse is no longer active, and is now a privately owned bed and breakfast, but you are welcome to walk around on the grounds, and they offer a tour of the inside once a day. Last time I checked the public tour was at 3:00 in the afternoon, and the cost was $5.00. You can call the number below to double check this before driving out. The lighthouse is the largest and last manned lighthouse built on the Great Lakes. It was built in 1917 and housed three light keepers along with their families. It was manned until 1939, at which time the Coast Guard automated the station. During World War II the property was used as a train site, and 200 men livered there. It then stood vacant until it was sold in 1985 by a government action.
Directions Drive Hwy. 41 to Ahmeek, then turn left at the first street. Right after turning, you'll see signs directing you to Five Mile Point Road, where you will then continue for eight miles to the lighthouse.

A Maritime History Exhibit
Drive along highway 26 for about 32 miles to the Eagle Harbor Lighthouse museum. Eagle Harbor Lighthouse was built in1871, and is one of the most photographed spots in the Keweenaw. This historic museum complex is the Keweenaw area's maritime history exhibit. 21 light keepers maintained and operated this light station until 1980 when it was automated. In 1999 the United States Congress transferred ownership of the Eagle Harbor Lighthouse to the Keeweenaw County Historical Society. The museums that you will find at this light station include period furnishings, the history of Eagle Harbor, the old fog signal building and watch building, a Keweenaw mining museum, and a Keweenaw commercial fishing museum. The Coast Guard, however, continues to operate the light at the top of the tower. The museum is open from mid-June to early October.

A Self Guided Mine tour
Take a self-guided tour of the Delaware Copper Mine which is located about 18 miles north of Calumet along U.S. highway 41. This is an authentic copper mine dating back to 1847-1887. Eight million pounds of copper were removed from its five shafts that reached a depth of 1400 feet. Your visit will take you down into the first level of shaft number 1 which is at a depth of 110 feet. Good walking shoes are recommended, and due to a temperature of 45 degrees in the mine, you will also need a jacket. The Delaware Mine is open daily mid-May to mid-October.

Take special note of the Quincy Mining Company, a cooperating site of the Keweenaw National Historical Park. It would be a shame to be in the Calumet area and not visit this wonderful mining museum complete with an underground tour. Also visit my Copper Harbor pages. This small tourist town lies at the very northern tip of the UP and will give you a beautiful view of Lake Superior.

Overall, the shoe is very comfortable. The only problem was that the tongue on the left shoe is shorter than the right tongue. The left tongue cuts short at the top where the block logo is, resulting an awkward look compared to the right tongue. ... read more
Even though i dont have wide feet, after wearing these for 2 day i had to walk around with sandles so the pain would go away from my pinkies, the quality looks to be there, and it looks nice. In my opinion its just a bad design where there stickings where the toes are. ... read more
Bought these because I have the black and gray ones and love them! Unfortunately, these rubbed the back of my heel so bad I got a blister, and they had orange specks of paint or something on them. I am thoroughly disappointed because usually, these are good quality. Probably won't buy any more shoes again. ... read more
Love the look and general feel of the shoes but the toe end is too narrow. I don't normally need wide shoes but clearly would've helped with these. The next size up is too big. Funky fit. Wish they would've worked out. ... read more
omg i found those on a market and i tested those... they were P-E-R-F-E-C-T. Size is exactly what you ask for.... width is enough and they are so comfortable! quality is very good too for their cost. you MUST buy those shoes. Nice Product Adidas <3 Love from greece ... read more
It was time for a new pair of shoes. I looked through the website and saw these. Very nice looking, and extremely comfortable. They fit very nicely. I skateboard so the real test was that. I was worried it would hamper my skating, but thy feel very good. After an hour of that my verdict was clear. This is one very solid pair of shoes ... read more
I love these shoes! I have had my pair for a while now and I am considering getting another pair! My only regret was not finding these sooner. If anyone is debating whether or not to get these I would DEFINITELY recommend these shoes. ... read more
Very comfortable for running shoe. I would recommend wearing them around before running in them & relace them to break in the shoe to make it more comfortable. Did have do go down from 11 to 10.5, not a big deal. They fit great! ... read more
Unfomfortable back bruised my ankle. Stiff materials in the toe squeeze the top of your foot. They look nice until they are worn for a few days then start to crease. Im not a complainer, but these are are most uncomfortable shoes that I have owned and I have a pair of tuxedo shoes. Sorry Addidas, these are a miss. ... read more
This is a fantastic shoe. I own the same pair in blue. They are light and airy because they are made with canvas, not leather, and keep my feet cool. I would not recommend walking through water in them, but they would dry quickly. The color is the best part. They are a cranberry red; not too bright and not too dark. Just perfect! My only gripe is that the word *adidas* on the heel is also written in red and cannot be seen. It would look classier and serve the company better if it was written in white. They have a nautical look, can be worn perfectly with shorts, jeans or khakis, and have a non-slip tread. For the money, they are a terrific purchase! ... read more
I am a 33 year male and I want my shoes to be comfortable and look good too. These get the job done. When I first stepped into the shoe they felt super comfortable but a little cheap. For the price they may feel cheap but definitely worth it. Great look, good comfort, good price. ... read more
I wanted shoes for casual wear and ordered these because I liked the dark red/burgundy color. The color is true to the picture and they are surprisingly comfortable. You can feel the cushion under your feet give a little when you walk. I usually stay away from canvas/cloth shoes but these are great. ... read more
Very very narrow shoes. I've worn an 11 in adidas shoes for 20yrs now. With these I'd have to get at least a 12 or 12.5 to have the same width as the normal size 11 adidas shoes. Also the materials feel cheap and are quite shiny, almost like cheap vinyl. Not even close to the quality that I'm used to from adidas. ... read more
These are the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn. The cloudfoam really is like walking on clouds. My only complaint is that the mess that covers the top of the shoes gets dirty easily and the shoes get soaked even with a light rain. The mess is what makes them so cool and light, so it's a worthy trade off. ... read more
These have been the most comfortable sneakers I have had in a long time. They held up well to my walking five miles a day for work for over a year. It's a shame they are becoming more difficult to find in stores. ... read more
Just purchased these fine specimens today. These are my favorite color and style to date. Very comfortable as well. My feet are all smiles. Once again Adidas...you continue to impress, while you continue to keep me looking and feeling like the cool and hip 45 year old that I am. (My son just said, "Dad, your Adidas is the ONLY cool or hip thing about you" . ............I'll take it. ... read more
Good shoe. Very comfortable insert (cloud). Only concern is if you have wide foot the tongue which attaches down inside of shoe sqeezes your foot which creates pressure point if you wear them all day. Once they broke in and stretched it wasnt as noticeable. ... read more

I was looking for a relatively cheap shoe that I could walk all day in for work, and that's exactly what I found. These shoes are the absolute most comfortable shoe I have ever owned. Now I will say that I would go half a size up because they really fit like a glove and some might find the tight fit a little annoying but I like the tight fit so I kept the 5th star. ... read more
I have plantar fasciitis in both feet and these shoes allow me to be on my feet longer through out the day. I own a restaurant so I walk all day. The insole is very comfortable and gives me supprt where it counts. Love'em... ... read more
I've had these shoes for 2 years. Since they're plain flat on the bottom, hurts your feet a bit after standing for a long time. And they're not very durable. Literally the bottom lining and sides of BOTH shoes are on edge of just completely falling off. Durability is terrible, but good when new. ... read more
Not what he usually picks out to wear, but they don't make adidas round house style (colors) any longer (his Pick) but he liked these so far...he says they are more comfortable than the round house. They are very easy to keep clean...just wipe them off with a dry cloth. ... read more
These are some of the most comfortable sneakers I have. Squishy sole but good support and super clean look. I've only had these for 2 days and already have gotten about 50 compliments on how fresh they are! ... read more
When I was in the 7th and 8th grade i had a pair of bbneo's and they lasted me all the way till they got to small. So this year i got a pair of raleigh mids. They are great they are just like my BBneos but much more comfortable with the new comfort insole. Its a great pair of shoes overall. I bouth a 1/2 size higher than i needed They are a little narrow but overall it just keeps them on your feet when you play sports or anything else. They even beat my jordan 3's And my jordan superfly 2's. great shoes. ... read more
These shoes are amazing! They are so light weight and soft it feels like a glove on your foot! I'm getting my 2nd pair and these shoes are attractive and yet so simple with out a lot of "flash".

Has Google really just killed the PR industry?
There are few companies or organisations that can come close to rivalling the power that Google wields over the internet and search in particular.
So when the search engine updated its rules on unnatural link schemes recently, making specific reference to press releases, it triggered a rather alarmist article from ZDNet asking whether Google had killed PR agencies.
The convergence of PR and SEO is something we've covered previously on the blog, with articles focusing on the importance of search optimised PR and suggesting seven SEO tools to improve online PR efficiency.
However the article on ZDNet understandably (and probably intentionally) ruffled a few feathers within the PR industry as it painted them as black hat SEOs, out to flood the internet with dull, keyword loaded press releases just so they could help their clients climb a few places in search rankings.
Why it's time for PR professionals to embrace paid media
PR professionals seem to embrace an air of superiority when it comes to the owned/earned/paid debate.
PRs have traditionally crafted stories that win or lose by their storytelling craft. If the story isn't powerful enough then the journalist will slam the phone down in a rage and never speak to you again.
Whereas on the paid side of the fence, the feeling is that content with a big media budget behind it can reach (or be pushed in front of) a wider audience, whether or not it is any good. And that that's just wrong.
Truths and flaws abound on both sides of this summary.
Q&A: Ian Monk of Bathrooms.com on a PR-focused approach to SEO
Bathrooms.com was launched by Ian Monk in 2004, and has just recently relaunched with a fully redesigned website.
Part of the relaunch included a focus on social and a PR-centric SEO strategy. I've been asking Ian about the thinking behind this approach and the results so far...
The importance of search optimised PR
Why don't all PR firms offer SEO services? The obvious answer a PR firm will give is "because we're a PR firm" but seriously, do PR people understand how much impact their hard work has on their client's search rankings?
Do they realise SEO is a £500m market in the UK?
This article aims to flesh out the opportunity for PR firms willing to innovate and offer a service that mixes the expertise of SEO and PR; for my sins, I refer to this service as search optimised PR (SOPR).
Why PRs need to get to grips with Google's Zero Moment of Truth
Last year Google published a new marketing model that added an extra step into the traditional view of the customer purchase journey.
Labelled The Zero Moment of Truth (ZMOT), the model essentially states that the internet has created an additional customer touch point between the original advert and the actual purchase.
ZMOT is when consumers go online to research products, look for reviews or try to find coupons.
At a PRCA event on Tuesday Unibet's head of search Nick Garner said that ZMOT is an area that PRs should own as it's about influencing decisions and getting positive brand information onto trusted websites.
Seven ways PRs should be helping their clients' SEO strategies
The convergence of PR and SEO has been a hotly debated topic on the Econsultancy blog in recent months.
It began with a guest blog urging PRs to get a grip on SEO, followed by a post warning that SEOs will slaughter careless PR agencies.
Both articles stirred a great reaction in the comments section, with the general consensus being that SEO and PR need to work together to help achieve common goals.
Text 100's digital and social lead Lance Concannon also addressed the topic at a PRCA event discussing the future of search and SEO.
Concannon stated that PRs should find out who owns SEO within their client's business and build a relationship with them so they can better coordinate their efforts.
Three steps to make your PR social
Using digital platforms for online PR is becoming more important than ever. There are a lot of easy steps to follow when you are considering how and when you engage.
We thought it would be good to go back to basics and then expand on each of the steps below in future posts. Hopefully this will give you a good overview of what to consider as your communications team integrates social media further into your PR planning and engagement.
SEOs will slaughter careless PR agencies
Talking to PR agencies about search engine optimisation (SEO) can make you feel like Noah before the flood.
Building on the recent debate around PR owning SEO, I look at how agencies who fail to embrace search will ultimately fail.
11 friendly tips to help PRs write effective press releases
In general PRs and journalists have a decent working relationship, or at least I like to think we do.
But new research by Pressfeed highlights the fact that we have differing opinions over what should be included in a press release.
Almost half (45%) of the PRs polled said that visual elements with a news story are not important at all to journalists, while 39% said it wasn't necessary to add images, videos or graphics to a news release.
But 80% of the journalists included in the survey said it was important or very important to have access to photographs and visual images and 75% wanted video content.
We get hundreds of press releases at Econsultancy, some good, some not so good.
So here's 11 friendly tips on how PRs can make their press releases more effective, and more likely to be opened and read...
Come on PRs, get a grip on SEO
It is about time that the public relations industry got to grips with SEO. As part of my work I have spent a lot of time building an SEO PR proposition, however many agencies still ignore the subject.
Apart from a few savvy PR agencies, the majority of PRs just don't understand the relationship between PR and search engine visibility, let alone how to measure if this visibility leads to some sort of 'conversion.'
Frankly, it's embarrassing.
Earning a place in the future of marketing
Marketing today has so many different guises that it's impossible for professionals to live by one skill alone.
Ten years ago there were clear divisions and defined roles and skillsets. PRs, writers, marketers, web developers and search marketers hardly spoke, let alone crossed into each other's worlds.
The situation has changed dramatically since then and it's time for the agency world to follow suit.
Is the press treating Apple differently without Steve Jobs?
Apple isn't the same company without Steve Jobs at the helm, but that's easy to forget when looking at the company's financial performance since its co-founder and chief visionary passed last year.
Despite questions about Apple's ability to thrive long-term without Jobs, consumers continue to snap up the company's latest and greatest products at remarkable, record-breaking rates.

Compassion & Choices
Rating: 4.76 stars 21 21 reviews
PO Box 101810 Denver CO 80250 USA
To improve care and expand choice at the end of life. We support, educate and advocate.
2009 Milestones On January 1, the Terminal Patients' Right to Know End-of-Life Options Act, AB 2747 (Berg-Levine) goes into effect in California. Read more about the Terminal Patients' Right to Know End-of-Life Options Act here. Compassion & Choices calls on the Obama Administration to repeal last-minute regulations allowing denial of medical services based on health care worker religious beliefs. On March 5, Washington's Death with Dignity Act begins implementation. As the health insurance reform debate heats up in Washington and around the country, Compassion & Choices aggressively responds to mis-information campaign launched by opponents of end-of-life choice to undermine a key provision of health insurance reform. Recent action and statements indicate the end-of-life consultation provision may survive in a final health care bill. Read more about end-of-life choices in health insurance reform here. On October 7, Compassion & Choices Legal Director, Kathryn Tucker, files suit in Connecticut on behalf of two Connecticut physicians, Gary Blick and Ron Levine, asserting that the Connecticut statute which makes a crime of assisting someone to "commit suicide" does not reach the conduct of a physician providing aid in dying. Read more about Blick at al v. Connecticut here. On October 29th, Congressman Earl Blumenauer of Oregon stood with leaders of the House of Representatives as they unveiled House Resolution 3200, Section 1233, the Life Sustaining Treatment Preferences Act of 2009 that would provide coverage under the Medicare Program for consultations regarding POLST. Senator Jay Rockefeller champions end-of-life care in his in his report to the Senate Finance Committee's health care reform legislation. Compassion & Choices continues work to assure end-of-life choice remains a key component of final health insurance reform package. On October 13-14, Compassion & Choices hosts "Dignity & Choices, A Symposium on End-of-Life Advocacy" in Washington, DC. Two days of discussion, exploration and study, Dignity & Choices provides an opportunity to promote principles and practices that focus on patients. Physicians, social workers, nurses, attorneys and advocates for end-of-life choice filled the National Press Club to hear aspects of end-of-life care rarely discussed and illuminate the way forward. Watch video highlights from Dignity & Choices here. On December 31, the Montana Supreme Court ruled in favor of the landmark case brought by Compassion & Choices (Baxter v. Montana) affirming that it is not against public policy of the state of Montana for a physician to provide aid in dying to a mentally competent, terminally ill individual. Read more about Baxter v. Montana here. 2010 Milestones The Older Women's League (OWL) devotes its 30th anniversary Mother's Day Report to end-of-life choices and hosts a Capitol Hill policy briefing on the issue. The report features a piece, "Aid in Dying: A Matter of Elder Justice and Civil Rights," by Kathryn Tucker, Compassion & Choices Director of Legal Affairs. On June 2 Blick et al v. Connecticut is dismissed without reaching the merits, on sovereign immunity grounds, denying plaintiffs the opportunity to make their case to distinguish committing "suicide" from a mentally competent terminally ill patient ingesting medications to bring about a peaceful death. New York passes the Palliative Care Information Act (PCIA) in August. The law, drafted by Compassion & Choices and modeled after a similar measure in CA, requires healthcare workers to provide information and counseling on end-of-life options.. Compassion & Choices files the groundbreaking lawsuit Hargett v. Vitas seeking accountability for the unnecessarily painful death of 43-year-old mother of three, Michelle Hargett-Beebee, who was never informed of the availability of palliative sedation. This is the first case in the nation to allege that failure to tell a patient about palliative sedation falls outside the standard of care. 2011 Milestones Legislative opponents introduced SB 116 in Montana, to nullify the Montana Supreme Court's landmark ruling in Baxter v Montana, a case litigated by Compassion & Choices. The Montana Medical Association testified in official opposition to the measure. On February 16 the Montana Senate Judiciary Committee declined to adopt this measure, preserving the option of aid in dying for Montanans. A bill amending Washington's Death with Dignity Act, SB 5378, fails to pass out of committee, in response to Compassion & Choices proactive efforts and voter support. SB5378 would have amended the section of DWDA specifying deaths under the Act do not constitute "suicide." Compassion & Choices launches successful public campaign throughout Oregon to defeat HB 2016, a bill requiring all terminally ill patients who request aid in dying to undergo psychiatric evaluation. The Oregon House HealthCare Committee holds no hearing or work session on HB 2016.

I first got involved with Compassion & Choices (then Compassion In Dying) when my mom was ill, about 10 years ago. I was so impressed with the support she received that I decided to volunteer on the local board, where I am now co-chair of the board.

The support my mom received was incredible! When she was terminally ill, the volunteers came to see her several times, and told her what she could do to control her death. She died a regular death (from her illness) but did so with a sense of dignity.

My first introduction to the board members of Compassion and Choices of Northern California was most impressive. Having served on boards where the sole function was fund-raising and their sole goal was to have good times raising those funds...I immediately knew that C&C was different.
Not only the doctors on the board, but the health professionals and people (like myself) with no letters after their names, were deeply passionate about the cause. Their goal was to actually help people in distress (free of charge) as well as to spread the word that help was available, and one didn't have to die a painful, undignified, horrible death.
I saw that happen with my parents and I realize the unnecessary agony they endured. How wonderful that end-of-life choice is today a reality, and available to so many who would otherwise suffer needlessly.

not make any great changes. We're going in the right directions, and we're working hard to increase public awareness.

I was so pleased to be introduced to this organization who are effectively and efficiently dealing with an issue so dear to my heart. Contributing to this organisation, with both time and money, is one of the most rewarding things in my life. Compassion & Choices are the one organisation that advocates for individual autonomy and dignity through choices at the end of life AND for changes to the law across the country to increase the information and choices available to patients. My grandmother was able to make her own decisions regarding her death from cancer, and she died on her own terms at home with her family around her - it was truly a good death and one I wish everyone could emulate. C&C works to empower patients so that the medical system is more helpful and responsive to the dying. When someone is terminally ill it is an immense comfort to them (and their loved ones) to know that they can make the important decisions about the end of their life.
More Feedback
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
defending and implementing the Oregon law and then replicating it in Washington. Developing legislation nation wide to improve end of life care and increase knowledge and choices for dying patients. Helping individuals realize their end of life wishes.
What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...
The people, the stories, the power of change.
If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...
Launch a national media campaign to increase awareness of end of life issues and generate a conversation amongst individuals about their choices and a debate across the country about our rights.

C&C has had a remarkable track record of success in helping patients, educating legislators, press and the public, and pushing for legislation that will permit Aid-in-Dying. The Washington victory this past November is a wonderful step forward, and supporters should feel very confident their contributions are being very well used.

Comcast Corp. will announce Tuesday the launch of cloud-based digital-video recorder services in the Philadelphia area, New Jersey, and northern Delaware.
Cloud-based DVR service places more of Xfinity cable onto distant computer servers as compared with residing on set-top boxes inside the home.
Comcast says it will introduce the additional cloud-based Xfinity features to other U.S. markets through 2014.
The new DVR services come with Comcast's X1 platform, which Comcast has said it will license to other cable companies and which blurs the line between cable TV and the Internet.

Hopefully this isn't too silly of a question but what are you June Momma's planning to bring your baby home in? If you've even thought about it yet.. we've been excitedly buying plenty of our little girls clothes and it's got me thinking about what we should bring her home in..
We live in TN and it should be pretty warm at that point, not smoldering but warm enough.. so, could she be in a dress or little romper or should I think more light-weight long sleeve/legged type sleeper or will she be too warm then? Plus we won't be outside much.. hospital to car, car to home, so chances are she will be in the AC more than anything..
I am pretty sure I am over-thinking this.. but I am curious of what you all plan to do since you should all probably be experiencing similar weather.. Thanks

Police: Robbery of Vt. couple was set upOctober 17,2013
The Associated Press
THETFORD - Vermont State Police say a couple robbed at gunpoint in an acquaintance's driveway had been lured there.
Police said Caitlyn and Chris Burnham of Bradford were visiting with McKayla Jordan in Thetford. The three were in the Burnhams' car when two masked men came out of the woods and pointed a handgun at Chris Burnham. They left with his wallet and about $1,000.
The Burnhams told police that despite the masks, they were able to identify both men.
Police later arrested 28-year-old Buddy Covey of Bradford and 42-year-old Jamie Lussier of Croydon, N.H., on charges of assault and robbery. They were being arraigned Thursday.
They said the 24-year-old Jordan will appear in court at a later date.MORE IN This Just InMORRISVILLE Overtime magic from Chloe Schiff and Maralina Moore gave the Solons a huge...

Suzette Grillot and Rebecca Cruise discuss two sides of international education. China has charged an education advocate in Tibet with inciting separatism, and a one-room basement library in Afghanistan is providing books to citizens once ruled by the Taliban. Then contributor Joshua Landis talks with Jeffrey Mankoff from the Center for Strategic and International Studies. He argues the U.S. tried to outsource solving the Ukraine crisis onto German Chancellor Angela Merkel. They'll also discuss Russia's involvement in Syria. Analyst Jeffrey Mankoff Explains Russia's Motivations In Ukraine, Syria By Joshua Landis & Brian Hardzinski • Mar 31, 2016 Center for Strategic and International Studies / Flickr (CC BY-NC-SA 2.0) Russia rapidly moved to the front of the world stage when President Vladimir Putin returned to power in 2012, setting off an adversarial relationship with the West not seen since Cold War tensions thawed in the 1980s. The country's ascendancy includes the 2014 invasion of Ukraine's Crimea region, and a greater role in Syria on the side of the regime of Bashar al-Assad. Syria is fighting rebels opposed to Assad's minority Alawite-led government as well as Islamic State, or ISIS, militants bent on establishing a caliphate in the Middle East.

Russia's 'Frozen Zone' In Ukraine Is Nothing New, And Evokes Cold War Gamesmanship By Brian Hardzinski • Nov 13, 2015 OSCE Special Monitoring Mission to Ukraine / Flickr (CC BY 2.0) It's been almost two years since pro-Russian unrest took hold in Ukraine, dividing the country along ideological lines and leading to Russia's annexation of Crimea. As the second anniversary of the Euromaidan movement's genesis approaches, nearly three million people are living in what The New York Times' Andrew Kramer describes as a "frozen zone." Overseas Childhood Leads Oklahoma City Nonprofit CEO To Career In International Aid By Suzette Grillot & Brian Hardzinski • May 15, 2015 Provided / World Neighbors Kate Schecter's passion for internationalism started almost before she could talk. Her dad was a journalist for Time Magazine, and she spent the first dozen years of her life overseas in Hong Kong, Japan, and Russia. Her childhood in Moscow coincided with the height of the Cold War. "My parents made a decision to send all five kids to Soviet public schools," Schecter told KGOU's World Views. And we're the first American children to go to Soviet Schools. And I learned Russian [laughs]. Very quickly."

Conditional Ceasefire Reached In Eastern Ukraine By Hallie Arias • Sep 5, 2014 Andrew Butko / Wikimedia Commons The Ukrainian Government announced Friday it signed a preliminary protocol to start a ceasefire with pro-Russian rebels. Brokered by Russian President Vladimir Putin in Minsk, Belarus, the ceasefire went into effect at 6 p.m. local time (10 a.m. Central).

Moscow continues to deny that. And as President Obama heads to Estonia today, a top Russian official says his country will alter its military doctrine toward NATO in response to what it says is the alliance's aggressive stance on what's happening in eastern Ukraine. Yesterday, NATO's secretary general said the alliance will develop a quick response strike force of several thousand soldiers who could be on standby to respond to a crisis.

Snowboarding Forum - Snowboard Enthusiast Forums (http://www.snowboardingforum.com/forum.php)
- Snowboarding General Chat (http://www.snowboardingforum.com/snowboarding-general-chat/)
- - What makes up a snowboarder? (http://www.snowboardingforum.com/snowboarding-general-chat/47668-what-makes-up-snowboarder.html)
What makes up a snowboarder?
Alright so my friends and I always do this about sports... what makes up a snowboarder? Personally I think snowboarding is 80% balls 10% skill 10% flow. What makes up a snowboarder in your opinion?
100% love of the sport. Some that only wants to ride to have fun and just enjoys being out on the hill. Some people enjoying hitting fresh pow so enjoy throwing down on a handrail but all that matters is they do it for fun and that's what snowboardings about.
95% mind set and 5% athleticism
definitely take balls, not being afraid to me is the biggest thing. Probably why i will never be that good a snowboarder, but im cool with it.
I hope this goes better than my thread about the article written by Ken Achenbach.
65% oxygen
18% carbon
10% hydrogen
3% nitrogen
4% everything else... btw gotta love wiki! :cheeky4:
Seriously though, I think you guys are putting balls and mindset way ahead of things like knowledge/training/experience (the things that make people competent in the occupational health and safety world). On the other hand I tend to ride noticably tamer if nobody's watching, so I guess at some level it's balls/adrenaline/outright flaming attention whoring.
I know there are times of the year and times of the day that my head is ahead of my body, I've got the skill but the muscles don't do what the head tells them to anymore, and sometimes it's the other way around. I know after 20 years I should be totally comfortable blasting huge air in the park. In the powder bowls I do it off natural features without hesitation, but my mind has some sort of block on big kickers. Guess I gotta work on the balls. :D
Besides Snowboarding, the ONLY other thing I've ever done that takes everything in my life that might be working on my mind, F'ing with my head, etc. etc. Is hitting the road on the Harley!!
Whenever I'm riding (the snow or the road) there isn't ANYTHING that intrudes on the sheer Exhilaration, Joy, Fun, Excitement, & Yes,.. even Fear of imminent injury or death!!!
For Me? Snowboarding,.. It is the ULTIMATE,.. in "Living IN the Moment"!!! (...Thus Endeth the Sermon!!) ;) :D :rolleyes:
Balls will only get you so far. I'd rate common sense over balls any day of the week. :p
Love of the sport is definitely up there... but I mean. Who snowboards when they don't want too? o.O
