Where we are right now is 78 percent of what water officials and hydrologists would like to see come april, so still a pretty Good Opportunity to hit 100 percent on the year for this snow which would be very good, considering we have been in drought for so long. Seeing the snow here, so much of it so far this year. What we see now. It got hot, so the snow kind of melted off. So it still ended up being a drought year. Lets talk about what that means financially. Talk about the snow industry. Ski resorts up at northstar california yesterday, and at northstar, they got 307 inches total thanks to this last weekends snow. Thats not just from the storm but throughout the entire season but this is why it is significant. Thats more than they got any of the last three seasons. In the last three seasons, they werent able to get 200 inches. Its only january. Technically, the storm ended in january and that snow came into 300 plus inches at that point. So it is, certainly, a good year for the ski resorts. Northstar being part of the 300 club as are a lot of people. Have a drought year because this is what we saw back in 2013, and it didnt necessarily continue on. Officials are optimistic in expecting this to keep going. Well see what happens. Back to you.

Then he went to a real rink to see how well each grips the iso outstanding, walking, and even running. All of these devices will improve your grip, but there were big differences in performance. The cleats for 18 perform the worst at the rink. Despite the metal coils in the bottom, he slid all over the ice. The 8 outer star has things on the bottom, but you can still slip fairly easily. The 27 ice trackers gave more traction on the slippery surface the best by far was the stabilizers meant that cost about 34. Walking, running, and even standing on ice at any angle didnt allow slipping. The stabilizers are available in several sizes from Outdoor Stores and online as well including amazon. Prices can vary by size. And you think, maybe i dont need those, but with the recent storms we have been having and seeing everyone on the ice. Really easy to put on as well. We have appear at home.

The cheerleader fan is accused of tripping says she was unharmed and isnt holding a grudge but after the incident, she was suspended from teaching for three days without pay and then fired as her so we are asking, do you think she should have been fired . Glenn, lets start with you. Cheerleading is one of the most athletic sports that youll find in high school. When someone is right in the middle of doing some really, lets call it very dangerous maneuvers, you are going to stick your foot out. I dont care if youre trying to help them or trying to hurt them. Seriously, bad judgment call. Lets get someone else in there with the ladies that has better judgment. I have to agree. What else you think will happen if you stick your leg out . Do you think a tap on the back or maybe, youre going the wrong way, that wouldve been more efficient. Reducing she shouldve been fired question reich. I dont think she should be fired. She has her hand out also trying to stop the girl. To me i dont think shes trying to trip her. But if she did just stick her leg out and leaned back, then she was. In this case, the cheerleaders father was there. Father said it was okay. He didnt feel like his daughter was running the risk of being trapped. I think this is overblown a little bit. Wed love to hear what you have to say about this. Maybe it was just a misunderstanding. If youd like to weigh them, stay with welcome back. You may have seen this on facebook. But at 14 months, shes learning to shred on a snowboard. Her parents started her off in their backyard friday. She hit the slopes. Her parents say she loves it. Look at that. 14 months.

Hes fighting for his life and fight he will. See the great escape that left a lion hungry. That dinner was a little too hard to get. How about you guys .
