Are you an impeccable judge of people’s outward appearance. Do you have a refined sense of “hotness”? Can you sense a beautiful woman coming around the corner before you see her? If so, we need your help.
Looking for something to do on Saturday? Are you so hell-bent on skiing that you’re willing to risk thrashing your new boards? You don’t have to.

The Backcountry Film Fest hits McMenamins tonight, 9 p.
Seattle band Pickwick stopped by McMenamin’s Father Luke’s room last night at Old St. Francis before heading up to Portland to play Doug Fir Lounge.
I waddled down to El Sancho for lunch (which was awesome, as usual: tacos, tamales and some potato, pepper, zucchini salad business over rice with some roughage on the side) and was met with some surprising news, which I’m still split on.
It seems Joel is leaving his post on 211 NW Greenwood Ave (next to the Blacksmith and his bro cart, Soupcon) to take a job at Pono Farms, a local farm that provides meat for their casual restaurant and for their specialty butcher shop.
I’ll cut to the chase here: I’ve been listening to essentially one band for the past two days and that band is called Pickwick. They are a bunch of nerdy-looking Seattle indie rockers who have, seemingly impossibly, decided to play soul music.

A fun little video from Lahaina’s Beau Killett who shot this footage up at Bachelor and then added a Bavarian twist to the production. Personally, we think the soundtrack is what makes this thing work.
While most of us were busy making plans for New Year's Eve, Bill Anthony was packing boxes and making plans for the rest of his life. Or, if he followed his wife's advice, Anthony was resisting the temptation to make plans.
Anthony officially retired from the U.S. Forest Service at the end of the year, ending a three-decade career that culminated with a 14-year stint as the district ranger for the Sisters area. His departure marks the end of one of the more notable, and in some ways unlikely, forestry careers that saw Anthony transform the way people think about forestry with pioneering consensus-based projects that turned critics into collaborators and allies.
“He took the changing mission of the Forest Service to heart and is probably one of the most innovative and creative district rangers that I've ever met,” said Tim Lillebo, field organizer for Oregon Wild and a longtime forest activist in Central Oregon.
