Diary of a rebirthThe faded purple house is now bright purple, and the old picket fence has been replaced with a bright white new one. It's very nice. The neighbor who survived on tuna is gone and his red, two-story house has been razed. It's been a long year and I've learned a lot. I've seen my son suffer incredible loss, and I've seen him pick himself up and get back in the fight. I realize more than ever how strong a family's love can be. And I'm more grateful than ever for the support of a loyal group of friends. Will New Orleans come back? I don't know. It will never be the same, of that I'm sure. But if the city can continue to attract energetic young people and institutions like Loyola nourish their curiosity, there is hope. Scott Sines is deputy editor of The Commercial Appeal.

The team has definitely taken on a busy schedule in New Zealand. They are shooting photos for the new 2008 Flow catalog, and theyve also participated in the New Zealand Open. Flow riders Scotty Lago, Clair Bidez, Jeremy Thompson, and Mark Anderson, all competed in this contest and achieved some impressive results. Clair pushed the limits while suffering a minor injury and ended up in 7th place in the womens superpipe. Mark Andersons fight through the competitive field landed him a 16th in the slopestyle. New Flow amateur rider Jeremy Thompson found the superpipe to be his strength finishing in a very impressive12th place. Rounding out the group was Scotty Lago who continued his strong summer riding with a 2nd place finish in slopestyle. read more. September 02, 2006Is wider better, as one car maker's ad campaign would have us believe? For golfers, it may be. But as with everything else in golf equipment, it depends who you are. While trolling for technology in your local golf shop, you may have noticed that many modern irons feature wider soles. Ping's G2 was one of the trend-starters, and its G5 and Rapture lines have continued broadening movement. Callaway has its Fusion Wide Sole model, which it describes as “a super-premium iron with game-improvement styling and performance." On Golf Central last Monday, you saw Wilson Golf's new Di7, whose wider sole promotes better turf interaction, but not at the cost of a pleasing look, say Wilson product mavens. These are just a few examples of the wide-out, with you as the intended receiver. And the wide sole option may not be just for chops – er, excuse me; I meant “recreational players" (and I'll be the first to plead guilty to the “chop" charge.) Actually, the wide-sole design feature helps people who don't chop: mid- and higher handicappers who sweep their irons more than hitting down on them. read more. Never too OLD for the coldGoing to Colorado to learn how to snowboard was my reply, but the answer often was followed by a second question. Why? The response, because it ought to be fun, sometimes solicited another question. Arent you afraid youll break something? You know, youre not so young anymore. They had me there. But the folks in Beaver Creek, Colo., know their business, and they assured me that a 41-year-old woman could learn to ride a snowboard just as an 18-year-old can. Remember, Roosevelt said, The only thing we have to fear is fear itself. For the 18-year-olds flying down the mountain, Franklin D. Roosevelt doesnt mean much to them, but they relate to Tom Sims or Jake Burton, professional boarders who wrote the book on this growing winter sport. As a participant in the resorts three-day Learn to Ride program, Id be happy if I could link some turns and not fall down while getting off the ski lift. read more.
