Dear NS Mods, I for one have taken a 4+ month leave of NS having been a member since Feb of 2004, and am blown away by the downward turn of the site, mostly NSG but also spilling over here and there to other forums. I am wondering if a couple of options have been explored: A site which I lurk...

OK NSG so here's the deal. 2 of my buds, Kaliv and Aeron started this website called How's The Living. It is a place where you can rate your experiences in ANY kind of University related housing in the world. Aeron had the idea after he studied abroad and got surprised by living in a little...

This is for a product development class I'm taking. I'd really appreciate it if you guys would take our survey to help us price our product for a final proposal. +K obviously. 5 questions. Should take less time than reading this. Click here to take survey

Orville Redenbacker's Cheddar Cheese flavored popcorn. Does not taste like cheese flavored popcorn should taste. Tastes like cardboard and smells like yeast.

If approved by BP and the joint incident command in New Orleans, the A Whale could provide a much-needed scaling up of oil-skimming capacity in the Gulf. More than 500 medium to small oil skimmers – a five-fold increase since early June – are still largely losing the race to clean up oil...

I am safely lodged away at the base of Beaver Creek getting to shred the west for the first time ever tomorrow. I have been skiing for 7 years. I learned on a hill with 8 trails and 38 acres, and have never skied anywhere larger than Snowshoe, WV until tomorrow. I have 5 days to split with my...

Nothing to do with ski season. Those will come when we get some snow. For now, I'm shamelessly whoring out the people who get me into all kinds of badass events. The photostream for the University of Tennessee Knoxville's Journalism and Electronic Media newsletter, the Tennessee Journalist...

What is the story w/ Sawmill glades and Lower Shay's? Do you think that w/ this badass front sliding through will get them open by this weekend?

Anybody else notice that Defi Skis website no longer works?

There's like, all of 2 inches of snow on the ground. I am totally hittin the urban shit around campus tomorrow.

Ok, So I'm chilling at my Aunt and Uncle's place over New Year's eve. It's about 2 hours ago, and I get this call from Dillards. I bought some plates for my sister and her husband before Christmas, and dealt with a nice guy named Stewart. Seemed normal, good salesperson, mid 30s-40s from what I...

With all the hating on ninthward and shit that's going on, my mind wandered to another "core" company who we haven't heard from lately. What's the latest on defi? *evil chuckle* Your penis is photoshopped

Any of ya'll from Ann Arbor? I'm thinking seriously about going to school at University of Michigan. How's the town and shit? I come from the outer reaches of a 500,000+ metro area skiing at a hill with 8 trails, no park and 500 vert, so I'm not expecting much. One BIG question is: will I HAVE...

You know what the skier/boarder/blader/free-heeler war comes down to? Either you're chill or not. Either you can respect your fellow snowriders for their skill, or you're a stupid fool who wants to hate every person who has something different strapped to their feet. So be chill and respect your...

Why can't skiers use Sugar Mountain's damn park? I've lways heard of some mystical bunch of skiers who suppossedly did this or did that, but never anything concrete. Just wondering as I may get a season pass there next year.

I just started thinking about this past weekend. I was goig bigger and stomping better tricks than ever before, mainly because I was riding with some new guys who were better than I was. Seeing them throw down and getting advice and urges from them made me throw down stuff that I was kind of...

Ok, so everybody's screwing their stuff up doing rails, so why hasn't anybody desiged a 'ski friendly' rail? I know you can't prevent %100 of rail-related problems, but ot making them out of metal would be a good start. I don't know a lot about materials available, but there's got to be...

Ok, maybe I'm anal about my stuff, but I don't like it looking all F***ed up where dumbasses have run it over. Granted, they're already dead from a ski pole through their heads, but that doesn't solve my skis being at least slightly f***ed up. How does Testors enamel model paint hold up on...

Ok, so I found TM's with the P12 Jib for total of 719 when you figure mounting at the local shop. Decient price for somebody who can't get pro form?

Ok so I've been skiing for 3 seasons now, and while I ski pretty much anything Tennessee (yeah I know) throws my way, I'm a jib orented kind of skier. I just delamed my dynastars (not twins) at the shovel and having epoxied and duct taped them, I intend to finish the season (another 3 or 4 days)...
