Perhaps not the smartest thing to do, given that I've been sick most of the week, but a lot of fun. Now I'm feeling perfectly wretched, and I think I undid whatever getting-better I had done. Or perhaps this is just the last throes of whatever it is that I've got. There was a pretty good crowd of people out on the slopes, about evenly split between kids and adults. However, I don't think I saw *any* college students out there, which strikes me as very strange. When I was in college, we went out there to sled every time there was any snow at all. And if we didn't have sleds, we stole trays from the cafeteria and used those. 1 Responses to Sledding Feed for this Entry Basil The video game generation grows up.

Nothing Happened 2001 - Most of our runs ended up on Tennessee MUSH New! - First Run: First Wreck (Ms Beaveri PissedOfferous) Bliss Sacco I'm Dyin' Here ... 3rd Annual Southern Exposure They are sled dogs, after all, our Alaskan Malamutes and Siberian Huskies, and their heritage, and greatest joy, is running. But in our modern and crowded time, running free is a death sentence. Our lively, intelligent, social sled dogs have no more road sense than a squirrel, AND they have a fascination with all other animals, living and dead. They love to play and don't understand why horses give out and goats a re cranky and cats well, cats are the most fun of all if you are doing the chasing... So what we do here to harness (Sorry, for the pun) all that lovely energy is: during the day they are in a big, open play yard with lots of shade and wading pools and a great big hill for them to charge down. At night they come in with us. And every chance we get that it's below 50 degrees we harness them up and release the sled brake and away we go . (For those of you who have never seen a dogsled team in person, animal abuse is the one you leave behind!)

Bringing the real world to the classroom: A last look at the Hunter College dust-up May 27, 2008 So you can see why the dust-up at Hunter College earlier this month surprised me a bit. How could a class so similar to our own go so wrong? In a nutshell, a class of PR students at Hunter, using $10,000 donated by the Coach handbag company and the International AntiCounterfeiting Coalition Hunter professor and PR critic Stuart Ewen was among several at the CUNY campus to raise a stink about the campaign. (For an excellent interview with Ewen on this topic holds up well 12 years after publication.) Ewen has good reason to be ticked off about the campaign. A report in Adweek leads us to believe the department was pressured to undertake the project by college administrators currying favor with Coach CEO Lew Frankfort. It must have worked, as Frankfurt subsequently donated $1 million to the school. academic freedom issues Compounding the mess at Hunter was the decision by a student campaign team to use marketing people are behind this? I think so, too! LOL)

15. Winter Sports: Sledding, Skiing, Snowboarding, Skating You ll have more fun if you stay safe in the cold and snow. Find out how in this article for kids. http://www.kidshealth.org/kid/watch/out/winter_sports.html

var fo = new FlashObject("/updates/K_squarebanner.swf", "kidleft", "153", "126", "5", ""); fo.addParam("QUALITY", "High"); fo.write("kid_left_flash"); KidsHealth Kids Watch Out Playing It Safe Outdoors and on the Road Stay Warm No matter which winter sport you choose, staying warm is important. The right clothing and equipment will help you do that. Dress in layers, people often say. This is true, but some of the newer fabrics for cold weather give you the warmth of layers without all the bulk. Ask an adult if you're not sure what to wear outside. Sometimes kids say, "I don't mind being cold." The tough guy (or girl) approach isn't a good idea. Staying warm isn't just about feeling comfortable. Your body needs to stay warm to work properly. And when your body is at the right temperature, it won't need to spend as much energy getting warm. That will give you maximum energy for winter fun. Also, if you're dressed properly, it means you can stay outside longer without worrying about frostbite Fun in the Sun Even though it might seem odd in winter, don't forget to put on
