Early in the second century a pagan named Catallus bought Hesperus, his wife Zoë, and their sons Cyriac and Theodulus as slaves. All of them were Christians, and would not eat anything that had been sacrificed to idols — they would throw all such food to the dogs and go hungry themselves. When Catallus learned of this, he was enraged and began to torture them cruelly, beginning with the children. When none of them could be moved from his confession of Christ, the entire family was cast into a hot furnace, where they gave up their souls to God. Their bodies remained unburnt.

There are 35 New England ski areas with vertical drops greater than 1,100 feet, and Crotched is not one of them. There are 44 New England ski areas that average more than 100 inches of snow per winter, and Crotched is not one of those either. Crotched does have a thousand vertical feet and a high-speed lift and a new baselodge and a snowmaking control room worthy of a nuclear submarine. Which is a pretty good starter kit for a successful ski area. But it's not enough in New England.To succeed as a ski area in New England, you need a Thing. The most common Things are to be really really nice or really really gritty. Stratton or Mad River. Okemo or Magic. Sunday River or Black Mountain of Maine. The pitch is either “you'll think you're at Deer Valley” or “you'll descend the hill on ice skates and you'll like it.” But Crotched's built-along-a-state-highway normalness precludes arrogance, and its mellow terrain lacks the attitude for even modest braggadocio. It's not a small ski area, but it's not big enough to be a mid-sized one, either. The terrain is fine, but it's not the kind of place you need to ski on purpose, or more than once. It's a fine local, but not much else, making Crotched precisely the kind of mountain that you would have expected to be smothered by the numerous larger and better ski areas around it before it could live to see the internet. And that's exactly what happened. Crotched, lacking a clear Thing, went bust in 1990.The ski area, undersized and average, should have melted back into the forest by now. But in 2002, then-budding Peak Resorts crept out of its weird Lower Midwest manmade snowhole on a reverse Lewis & Clark Expedition to explore the strange and murky East. And as they hacked away the brambles around Crotched's boarded-up baselodge, they saw not a big pile of mediocrity, but a portal into the gold-plated New England market. And they said “this could work if we can just find a Thing.” And that Thing was night-skiing with attitude, built on top of $10 million in renovations that included a built-from-scratch snowmaking system.The air above the American mountains is filled with such wild notions. “We're going to save Mt. Goatpath. It's going to be bigger than Vail and deeper than Alta and higher than Telluride.” And everyone around them is saying, “You know this is, like, f*****g Connecticut, right?” But if practical concerns killed all bad ideas, then no one would keep reptiles as pets. Everyone else is happy with cats or dogs, sentient mammals of kindred disposition with humans, but this idiot needs a 12-foot-long boa constrictor that he keeps in a 6x3 fishtank. It helps him get chicks or something. It's his thing. And damned if it doesn't work.What we talked aboutTransitioning from smaller, Vail-owned Crotched to larger, state-owned but Vail-operated Sunapee; “weather-proofing” Sunapee; Crotched and Sunapee – so close but so different; reflecting on the Okemo days under Triple Peaks ownership; longtime Okemo head Bruce Schmidt; reacting to Vail's 2018 purchase of Triple Peaks; living through change; the upside of acquisitions; integrating Peak Resorts; skiing's boys' club; Vail Resorts' culture of women's advancement; why Covid uniquely challenged Crotched among Vail's New England properties; reviving Midnight Madness; Crotched's historic downsizing; whether the lost half of Crotched could ever be re-developed; why Crotched 2.0 is more durable than the version that shut down in 1990; Crotched's baller snowmaking system; southern New Hampshire's wild weather; thoughts on future Crotched infrastructure; and considering a beginner trail from Crotched's summit.Why now was a good time for this interviewAs we swing toward the middle of the 2020s, it's pretty lame to continue complaining about operational malfunctions in the so-called Covid season of 2020-21, but I'm going to do it anyway.Some ski areas did a good job operating that season. For example, Pats Peak. Pats Peak was open seven days per week that winter. Pats Peak offered night skiing on all the days it usually offers night skiing. Pats Peak made the Ross Ice Shelf jealous with its snowmaking firepower. Pats Peak acted like a snosportskiing operation that had operated a snosportskiing operation in previous winters. Pats Peak did a good job.Other ski areas did a bad job operating that season. For example, Crotched. Crotched was open whenever it decided to be open, which was not very often. Crotched, one of the great night-skiing centers in New England, offered almost no night skiing. Crotched's snowmaking looked like what happens when you accidentally keep the garden hose running during an overnight freeze. Crotched did a bad job.This is a useful comparison, because these two ski areas sit just 21 miles and 30 minutes apart. They are dealing with the same crappy weather and the same low-altitude draw. They are both obscured by the shadows of far larger ski areas scraping the skies just to the north. They are both small and unserious places, where the skiing is somewhat beside the point. Kids go there to pole-click one another's skis off of moving chairlifts. College kids go there to alternate two laps with two rounds at the bar. Adults go there to shoo the kids onto the chairlifts and burn down happy hour. No one shows up in either parking lot expecting Jackson Hole.But Crotched Mountain is owned by Vail Resorts. Pats Peak is owned by the same family of good-old boys who built the original baselodge from logs sawed straight off the mountain in 1962. Vail Resorts has the resources to send a container full of sawdust to the moon just to see what happens when it's opened. Most of Pats Peaks' chairlifts came used from other ski areas. These two are not drawing from the same oil tap.And yet, one of them delivered a good product during Covid, and the other did not. And the ones who did are not the ones that their respective pools of resources would suggest. And so the people who skied Pats Peak that year were like “Yeah that was pretty good considering everything else kind of sucks right now.” And the people who skied Crotched that season were like “Well that sucked even worse than everything else does right now, and that's saying something.”And that's the mess that Donnelly inherited when she took the GM job at Crotched in 2021. And it took a while, but she fixed it. And that's harder than it should be when your parent company can deploy sawdust rockets on a whim.What I got wrong* I said that Colorado has 35 active ski areas. The correct number is 34, or 33 if we exclude Hesperus, which did not operate last winter, and is not scheduled to reactivate anytime soon.* I said that Bruce Schmidt was the “president and general manager” of Okemo. His title is “Vice President and General Manager.” Sorry about that, Bruce.* I said that Okemo's season pass was “closing in on $2,000” when Vail came along. According to New England Ski History, Okemo's top season pass price hit $1,375 for the 2017-18 ski season, the last before Vail purchased the resort. This appears to be a big cut from the 2016-17 season, when the top price was $1,619. My best guess is that Okemo dropped their pass prices after Vail purchased Stowe, lowering that mountain's pass price from $2,313 for the 2016-17 ski season to just $899 (an Epic Pass) the next.* I said that 80 percent-plus of my podcasts featured interviews with men. I examined the inventory, and found that of the 210 podcasts I've published (192 Storm Skiing Podcasts, 12 Covid pods, 6 Live pods), only 33, or 15.7 percent, included a female guest. Only 23 of those (11 percent), featured a woman as the only guest. And three of those podcasts were with one person: former NSAA CEO Kelly Pawlak. So either my representation sucks, or the ski industry's representation sucks, but probably it's both.Why you should ski CrotchedUpper New England doesn't have a lot of night skiing, and the night skiing it does have is mostly underwhelming. Most of the large resorts – Killington, Sugarbush, Smuggs, Stowe, Sugarloaf, Waterville, Cannon, Stratton, Mount Snow, Okemo, Attitash, Wildcat, etc. – have no night skiing at all. A few of the big names – Bretton Woods, Sunday River, Cranmore – provide a nominal after-dark offering, a lift and a handful of trails. The bulk of the night skiing in New Hampshire, Vermont, and Maine involves surface lifts at community-run bumps with the vertical drop of a Slip N' Slide.But a few exceptions tower into the frosty darkness: Pleasant Mountain, Maine; Pats Peak, New Hampshire; and Bolton Valley, Vermont all deliver big vertical drops, multiple chairlifts, and a spiderweb of trails for night skiers. Boyne-owned Pleasant, with 1,300 vertical feet served by a high-speed quad, is the most extensive of these, but the second-most expansive night-skiing operation in New England lives at Crotched.Parked less than an hour from New Hampshire's four largest cities – Manchester, Nashua, Concord, and Derry – Crotched is the rare northern New England ski area that can sustain an after-hours business (New Hampshire, Maine, and Vermont are ranked numbers 41, 42, and 49 among U.S. states by population, respectively, with a three-state total of just 3.5 million residents). With four chairlifts spinning, every trail lit, Park Brahs on patrol, first-timers lined up at the rental shop, Bomber Bro straightlining Pluto's Plunge in his unzipped Celtics jacket, the parking lots jammed, and the scritch-scratch of edges on ice shuddering across the night, it's an amazing scene, a lantern of New England Yeah Dawg zest floating in the winter night.No, Crotched night skiing isn't what it used to be, when Peak Resorts kept the joint bumping until 3 a.m. And the real jammer, Midnight Madness, hits just a half dozen days per winter. But it's still a uniquely New England scene, a skiing spectacle that can double as a night-cap after a day shredding Cannon or Waterville or Mount Snow.Podcast NotesOn my recent Sunapee podI tend to schedule these interviews several months in advance, and sometimes things change. One of the things that changed between when I scheduled this conversation and when we recorded it was Donnelly's job. She moved from Crotched, which I had never spotlighted on the podcast, to Sunapee, which I just featured a few months ago. Which means, Sunapee Nation, that we don't really talk much about Mount Sunapee on this podcast that has Mount Sunapee in the headline. But pretty much everything I talked about in June with former Sunapee GM Peter Disch (who's now VP of Mountain Ops at Vail's Heavenly), is still relevant:On historic CrotchedCrotched was once a much larger resort forged from two onetime independent side-by-side ski areas. The whole history of it is a bit labyrinthian and involves bad decisions, low snow years, and unpaid taxes (read the full tale at New England Ski History), but the upshot was this interconnected animal, shown here at its 1988-ish peak:The whole Crotched complex dropped dead around 1990, and would have likely stayed that way forever had Missouri-based Peak Resorts not gotten the insane idea to dig a lost New England ski area up from the graveyard. Somewhat improbably, they succeeded, and the contemporary Crotched (minus the summit quad, which came later), opened in 2003. The current ski area sits on what was formerly known as “Crotched West,” and before that “Bobcat,” and before that (or perhaps at the same time), “Onset.” Trails on the original Crotched Mountain, at Crotched East (left on the trailmap above), are still faintly visible from above (on the right below, between the “Crotched Mountain” and “St. John Enterprise” dots):On Triple Peaks and OkemoTriple Peaks was the umbrella company that owned Okemo, Vermont; Mount Sunapee, New Hampshire; and Crested Butte, Colorado. The owners, the Mueller family, sold the whole outfit to Vail Resorts in 2018. Longtime Okemo GM Bruce Schmidt laid out the whole history on the podcast earlier this year:On Crotched's lift fleetPeak got creative building Crotched's lift fleet. The West double, a Hall installed by Jesus himself in 400 B.C., had sat in the woods through Crotched's entire 13-year closure and was somehow reactivated for the revival. The Rover triple and the Valley and Summit quads came from a short-lived 1,000-vertical-foot Virginia ski area called Cherokee.What really nailed Crotched back to the floor, however, was the 2012 acquisition of a used high-speed quad from bankrupt Ascutney, Vermont.Peak flagrantly dubbed this lift the “Crotched Rocket,” a name that Vail seems to have backed away from (the lift is simply “Rocket” on current trailmaps).Fortunately, Ascutney lived on as a surface-lifts-only community bump even after its beheading. You can still skin and ski the top trails if you're one of those people who likes to make skiing harder than it needs to be:On Peak ResortsPeak Resorts started in, of all places, Missouri. The company slowly acquired small-but-busy suburban ski areas, and was on its way to Baller status when Vail purchased the whole operation in 2019. Here's a loose acquisition timeline:The Storm explores the world of lift-served skiing year-round. Join us.The Storm publishes year-round, and guarantees 100 articles per year.

Alle 11.30 in scena Bagatella, un viaggio senza destinazione, per il piacere di perdersi e vagare con leggerezza. Talbò, attraverso acrobazie e giochi clown invita i più piccoli e i grandi ad incontrarsi e a rivivere suggestione di un tempo forse remoto, ricordandoci che non si smette di giocare perché si invecchia, ma si invecchia perché si smette di giocare. Doppia replica per Apocalippo (ore 18 e ore 21): senza morale e con disarmante ironia, lo spettacolo accoglie la preoccupazione di questo tempo, giocando a confondere punti di vista, per disorientare e perdersi, unica condizione per potersi ritrovare.

Alle ore 19.30 il debutto nazionale di Ballata per la Kater I Rades, con la regia di Tonio De Nitto: le storie di due “bambini del 1997” si rincorrono e si intrecciano nelle voci di Elvis e Lindita, partiti dal Sud dell'Albania per mettersi in salvo dall'impazzimento di un Paese in preda alla guerra civile e dal rapido precipitare degli eventi.Sempre il 16 maggio a Ruvo sono in programma spettacoli e i Manifestini del maggio. Con un atteso debutto nazionale: alle 11 al Teatro comunale Jack, il ragazzino che sorvolò l'oceano, seconda parte della trilogia de La luna nel letto dedicata al piccolo protagonista del racconto inglese ‘Jack e il fagiolo magico'. Dalle 12 alle 14 nella stessa location gli studenti delle scuole primarie realizzeranno i colorati Manifestini che addobberanno gli spazi del festival, per poi passare alle 12.15 al debutto regionale de L'Europa non cade dal cielo, un racconto a due voci di Teatro delle Albe che ha come nucleo centrale l'Unione Europea a partire proprio dalla sua nascita fino ad arrivare ai giorni nostri. Alle 15 ci spostiamo nell'ex convento dei Domenicani con un manifesto sull'essere se stessi in una società che ci vuole omologare: Freevola, scritto e interpretato da Lucia Raffaella Mariani. Chiude gli appuntamenti di giornata al Teatro Comunale un altro debutto nazionale: Le tragicomiche, vita da eroi, coproduzione Crest e I nuovi scalzi, dove quattro guitti, fliaci, muovono emozioni e buffonerie, ripercorrendo i momenti salienti delle famose gesta eroiche del Pelide Achille e della sua ira funesta, testimone di una storia di guerra e di potere.Gli appuntamenti del 17 maggioIl 17 maggio si inaugura il secondo chapiteau in programma nell'ambito del festival, quello di Circo Paniko, che viene installato nel Parco urbano Baden Powell di Molfetta. Alle ore 20 facciamo la conoscenza di Agostina la pagliaccia, spettacolo gratuito che anticipa i saluti istituzionali con l'amministrazione comunale di Molfetta. Segue alle ore 21 Apocalippo, la performance di circo e musica dal vivo.È Monopoli a ospitare venerdì un ampio panorama di spettacoli, a partire dal debutto nazionale alle ore 9, al Teatro Radar, de L'arrago. Storia di una baby gang, la nuova produzione Teatri di Bari con la regia di Gianpiero Borgia, nella quale si vive, attraverso i racconti dei ragazzi di strada, una Bari cruda, contemporanea, alterata. Una città qualsiasi, che come tante altre, potrebbe facilmente fare da sfondo a episodi come quelli delle tragiche cronache più recenti. Alle 10.15 nella Parrocchia del Sacro cuore il pubblico più giovane scopre invece Il mio giardino di e con Letizia Fata, un luogo dell'anima in cui avviene il miracolo del germoglio della prima fogliolina e della creazione della vita. Altro debutto nazionale di una produzione Teatri di Bari, insieme a Compagnia del Sole, alle 11.15 al Teatro Mariella è Quando le stelle caddero nel fiume. Spettacolo che  ripercorre l'episodio avvenuto tra il 21 e il 29 maggio 1937, le truppe coloniali italiane al comando del generale Pietro Maletti, condussero in Etiopia un'azione destinata a divenire una pagina riprovevole della storia d'Italia: il massacro di Debra Libanòs, il più grande eccidio di cristiani copti avvenuto in Africa. Alle 16 uno spettacolo filosofico alla Parrocchia del Sacro cuore: Los Socrates e il mistero della caverna, di e con Ànnika Sctruum Strøhm e Saba Salvemini, mentre alle 17.45 il Teatro Mariella si fa palcoscenico per il debutto nazionale de Nella pancia del lupo, spettacolo di Kuziba che racconta la parte più oscura della favola di Cappuccetto rosso. Alle 19.15 al Teatro Radar entriamo poi nel magico negozio di giocattoli de La burla con i suoi tre anziani proprietari – tra comiche scenette e teatro circense - mentre chiude gli spettacoli a Monopoli alle 20.30 nel Roof garden del Teatro Radar Revolution, di e con Sara Bevilacqua, una miscela di emozioni, ricordi e storie di vita vissuta a Brindisi negli anni del Boom economico.Tornano anche gli eventi in musica realizzati in collaborazione con il Conservatorio Nino Rota di Monopoli: alle 18.45 la piazzetta del Teatro Radar vedrà esibirsi il quintetto d'archi del Conservatorio in Walt Disney Fantasy, concerto gratuito con le sigle dei più bei cartoni animati della nostra infanzia.Il programma completo con il botteghino è disponibile sul sito www.maggioallinfanzia.it Il Festival è organizzato da Fondazione SAT Spettacolo Arte Territorio, con la direzione artistica di Teresa Ludovico, il progetto a cura di Cecilia Cangelli e la consulenza pedagogica di Giorgio Testa.

This tidbit actually came from internal talking points that an MCP representative shared with The Storm.Why the format is so weirdThis is the first time I've used the podcast to break news, so I thought the simpler “live” format may work better. I'll write an analysis of what MCP's purchase of La Parva means in the coming days.The Storm publishes year-round, and guarantees 100 articles per year.

The Aftermath

The transatlantic steamer Archtor noticed that the lighthouse's light was off on the night of December 15, 1900. The Northern Lighthouse Board dispatched the relief ship Hesperus to investigate. Relief keeper Joseph Moore climbed the steep steps to the lighthouse and found eerie signs: the clock stopped, an uneaten meal set on the table, and a toppled chair. The keepers—James Ducat, Thomas Marshall, and William MacArthur—were nowhere to be found.#history #Beverly #mafia #⁠beverlyhils #truecrime #tedbundy #truecrimecommunity #truecrimeaddict #truecrimememes #killers #killer #murder #mindhunter #murderer #kansas #ouijamacc #bondage #twiztid #thegathering #murdermuseum #eldorado #odditiesandcuriosities #caveman #oddities #rare #parkcity #death #charlesmanson #jeffreydahmer #edgein #crime #horror #darkart #richardramirez #halloween #criminal #horrorart #creepy #btkart #truecrimeart #truecrimepodcast #cannibal #albertfish #r #thriller #netflix #truecrimejunkie #horrormovies #history #selfie #truecrimefan #homicide #mystery #truecrimeobsessed #scary #serialkillerart #truecrime #truecrimecommunity #truecrimepodcast #crime #murder #podcast #truecrimeaddict #serialkiller #serialkillers #truecrimejunkie #horror #unsolved #murderino #podcastersofinstagram #truecrimeobsessed #mystery #ssdgm #truecrimefan #killer #truecrimememes #unsolvedmysteries #creepy #paranormal #podcasts #history #tedbundy #criminal #scary #podcasting #coldcase #murdermystery #bookstagram #death #buzzfeedunsolved #crimescene #truecrimepodcasts #missingperson #missing #halloween #crimejunkie #news #myfavoritemurder #spooky #supernatural #truecrimestories #homicide #ryanbergara #shanemadej #murderer #podcaster #truecrimebooks #memes #spotify #podernfamily #boogara #shaniac #jeffreydahmer #police #museum #italy #war #vintage #memes #picoftheday #ig #europe #photo #explore #ancient#germany #historymemes #usa #beautiful #travelgram #follow #historic #france #music #military #italia #castle #historylovers #a #medieval #life #education #like #facts #landscape #storia #world #old #city #historyfacts #archaeology #upsc #america #wwii #Podcasthost #Aftermath #aftermathpodcast #podcast #binge #bingepodcast #podcasttips newpodcastalert #slander #Hudson #aftermath #history #updates #storiesyouforgotabout #WW1 #WW2 #attack #terrorattack #nostalgia #Queen #mercury #FreddyMercury #truecrime #truecrimecommunity #truecrimepodcast #crime #murder #podcast #truecrimeaddict #serialkiller #serialkillers #truecrimejunkie #horror #unsolved #murderino #podcastersofinstagram #truecrimeobsessed #mystery #ssdgm #truecrimefan #killer #truecrimememes #unsolvedmysteries #creepy #paranormal #podcasts #history #tedbundy #criminal #scary #podcasting #coldcase #murdermystery #bookstagram #death #buzzfeedunsolved #crimescene #truecrimepodcasts #missingperson #missing #halloween #crimejunkie #news #myfavoritemurder #spooky #supernatural #truecrimestories #homicide #ryanbergara #shanemadej #murderer #podcaster #truecrimebooks #memes #spotify #podernfamily #boogara #shaniac #jeffreydahmer #police #s #justice #forgotten history #The Aftermath #Alamo #thealamo #tate #sharontate #TheFlannanIslesLighthouseMystery #horrorpodcast #investigation #torontojournalist #myths #cultinvestigation #podcastersofinstagram #reallegitimateapocalypse #rlaseries #mysterypodcast #mystery #fictionpodcast #crimepodcast #torontolife #newpodcast #podcast #legends #creepypasta #audiodrama #cult #scriptedpodcast #comingsoon #podcasters #notorious #legenday #mythology #myfavoritemurder #elevatorritual #truecrime #stories #thekybalion #scary #lastpodcastontheleft #elevatorgame #murderino #canadianpodcast #ohio #audio #hermeticism #cropsey #myth #elisalam #silentpool #surrey #apocalypse #truecrimememes #cecilhotel #melonheads #shere #slenderman #vancouver #truecrimepodcast #truecrimeaddict #quiteunusual #meditation #instagram --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/daniel-hudson9/message

Early in the second century a pagan named Catallus bought Hesperus, his wife Zoë, and their sons Cyriac and Theodulus as slaves. All of them were Christians, and would not eat anything that had been sacrificed to idols — they would throw all such food to the dogs and go hungry themselves. When Catallus learned of this, he was enraged and began to torture them cruelly, beginning with the children. When none of them could be moved from his confession of Christ, the entire family was cast into a hot furnace, where they gave up their souls to God. Their bodies remained unburnt.

Early in the second century a pagan named Catallus bought Hesperus, his wife Zoë, and their sons Cyriac and Theodulus as slaves. All of them were Christians, and would not eat anything that had been sacrificed to idols — they would throw all such food to the dogs and go hungry themselves. When Catallus learned of this, he was enraged and began to torture them cruelly, beginning with the children.

Skiljetecken 7: Utropstecknet vittnar om livets gränser

Utropstecknet kan både signalera ilska och glädje. Kulturskribenten Kristina Lindquist berättar utifrån egna erfarenheter om hur det också kan representera något mycket större än så. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna. Ursprungligen publicerad den 14 maj 2019.det väller liksom framen flod av grönska,av blad barroch fågelsång!Se där en talande rad ur Eva-Stina Byggmästars diktsamling ”Barrskogarnas barn” från 2014. I Byggmästars skogar finns inga skuggor, bara en yster och naivistisk naturlyrik från första till sista sidan – och just det: en massa utropstecken. ”Får poesi verkligen se ut såhär? Så uppsluppen!” skrev Svenska dagbladets kritiker Therese Eriksson i sin recension. För utropstecknet är ganska sällsynt i den kulturella offentligheten, och något av ett svart får i skriftspråket överhuvudtaget. Ända sedan 1800-talet har det enligt språkforskaren Siv Strömquist varnats för detta stöddiga skiljetecken, som inte sällan beskrivs som skrikigt och vulgärt. Jag minns hur en bekant som arbetade med att besvara allmänhetens brev på Rosenbad fick instruktionen att ersätta det alldeles korrekta utropstecknet i hälsningsfraserna med ett komma – utropstecknet var helt enkelt för ”familjärt” för statsförvaltningen. Och i TT-språkets skrivregler konstateras bara helt kort att utropstecknet bör användas ”sparsamt”.utropstecknets explicita tydlighet ställs mot ett rådande stilideal som upphöjer det vaga och outtalade.För tio år sedan skrev den brittiska journalisten Stuart Jeffries i The Guardian om en renässans för utropstecknet i den digitala tidsålderns kommunikation, där detta skiljetecken kan innebära den stora skillnaden mellan det avmätta och det förtjusta. ”Vi ses på konferensen [utropstecken]” förmedlar något helt annat än ”Vi ses på konferensen [punkt]”. Forskning visar också att kvinnor använder utropstecken i högre utsträckning än män, vilket språkforskaren Carol Waseleski förklarar med att utropstecknet kan utstråla vänlighet – vilket alltså anses utmärkande för kvinnors sätt att kommunicera.Men utropstecknets status som det mest förtalade bland skiljetecken rubbas nog inte så lätt. Det är en flåsig gaphals vi talar om – som gjord för det militära eller för samtidens råbarkade debatter i kommentarsfält och på Twitter. Jeffries tar i sin artikel upp kriminalförfattaren Elmore Leonard, som sagt att två eller tre utropstecken per hundratusen ord prosa möjligen kan passera, vilket innebär ungefär ett per medellång roman. Fantasyförfattaren Terry Pratchett låter en av sina romanfigurer säga att fler än ett i följd av detta skiljetecken är ett uttryck för en ”sjuk hjärna”, medan F. Scott Fitzgerald ansåg att den som överhuvudtaget använder det lika gärna kan skratta åt sina egna skämt. Herrarna har nog en poäng, och samtidigt kan utropstecknet som fenomen bevisligen ligga till grund både för litterär intrig och tidlös komedi.I den klassiska komediserien ”Seinfeld” kraschar förhållandet mellan Elaine och hennes författarkille för att han inte använder utropstecken i ett nedskrivet telefonmeddelande om en nyfödd bebis i bekantskapskretsen. Hon tycker att han struntar i hennes vänner, han tycker att hon är lite väl slampig med sina skiljetecken. I ett avsnitt av Sex and the city förvandlas ett utlovat utropstecken till ett frågetecken på omslaget till New York Magazine, som pryds av en osmickrande bild av huvudpersonen Carrie. Tidningsrubriken ”Singel och fantastisk?” formulerat som en fråga snarare än med utropstecknets sköna självsäkerhet får Carrie att ifrågasätta hela sin sorglösa livsstil.Utropstecknet är alltså ett tecken som både väcker och uttrycker känslor, och känslor får väl generellt sägas ha ganska låg status i vårt samhälle. Men kanske handlar frågan också om att utropstecknets explicita tydlighet ställs mot ett rådande stilideal som upphöjer det vaga och outtalade. I en illustrativ passage i romanen ”Argonauterna” fastnar författaren Maggie Nelson vid de tomma hakparenteser som den inflytelserika författaren Anne Carson gett som skriftliga intervjusvar i en tidning – och som signalerar ett slags tyst och sofistikerad återhållsamhet. Nelson skriver: ”Åsynen av Carsons hakparenteser fick mig genast att skämmas för min tvångsmässiga drift att lägga korten mer bestämt på bordet. Men ju mer jag tänkte på hakparenteserna, desto mer störde de mig. De tycktes göra en fetisch av det osagda”. Utropstecknet lägger verkligen korten bestämt på bordet, och tvingar fram ställningstaganden i en tid när det värsta man kan vara är tvärsäker – alldeles oavsett vad man är tvärsäker på. På senare tid har så kallad samtalsaktivism blivit på modet, det vill säga tekniken att genom diskussion och möten försöka motverka polarisering i samhället. Här tycks förmågan att förflytta sig vara viktigare än att syna innehållet i de – inte sällan extrema – åsikter som genom denna typ av samtal erbjuds en plattform. Rörligheten i ståndpunkter blir närmast ett bevis för ett rörligt intellekt, och då finns inte plats för några rigida utropstecken.All förundran är borta med honom, liksom den kraft som utropstecknet för med sig till det skrivna språket mellan människorna.Men låt oss återvända till känslorna. I den tidiga novellen ”Utropstecknet” skildrar Anton Tjechov en statstjänsteman som vid juletid konfronteras med att han under 40 yrkesår aldrig har använt ett utropstecken: ”Fördömt! När använder man egentligen utropstecken?” Den grammatiskt skolade hustrun får hjälpa till: Vid hälsningar och utrop och vid uttryck för jubel, indignation och ilska, upplyser hon. Den osalige tjänstemannen jagas av sina utropstecken, och ser hur människor omkring honom förvandlas till långa streck med en punkt under. För tänk om han på 40 år inte har upplevt en enda känsla som förtjänat ett utropstecken – vad säger det om hans liv?Jag tror – eller rättare sagt: jag vet – att det också kan gå åt andra hållet, så att de starkaste av känslor kan kortsluta användningen av detta känslotecken. Den grönländska poeten Naja Marie Aidt beskriver i den prosalyriska romanen ”Har döden tagit något ifrån dig så ge det tillbaka” om hur sorgen efter hennes vuxna son slog sönder all syntax och begriplighet i hennes formuleringar. ”inget språk möjligt språk dog med mitt barn”, skriver hon i en lång ordmassa helt utan skiljetecken. När mitt eget barn dog hände det något med mina utropstecken, och specifikt med dem. Utropstecknen försvann ur all skriven kommunikation, och har ännu inte återvänt. Det handlar inte bara om brist på glädje och entusiasm, utan om något som kanske står att finna i utropstecknets historiska rötter. I vår äldsta bevarade handledning i användandet av skiljetecken talas det om ”förundringstecken”, eller punctus admirativus. Utropstecknet hör i sitt ursprung alltså hemma inför skapelsens och varats mirakel. Och för den som sett all sådan skönhet i sin nyfödda sons knubbiga ansikte finns ingen förundran kvar på jorden, inte sedan han skickats iväg för gravsättning i en mönstrad pyjamas. All förundran är borta med honom, liksom den kraft som utropstecknet för med sig till det skrivna språket mellan människorna.Annat är det i nattens ordlösa klagan, där utropstecknen kastas mot en tom himmel utan svar. Jag läser Jobs bok i Gamla testamentet, och dess berättelse om mannen som inte bara förlorar sina barn och allt han äger utan också drabbas av svåra sjukdomar. Här finns naturligt nog en hel del förtvivlade utropstecken: ”Ropa bara! Finns det någon som svarar?”, som det står i femte kapitlet. Och lite längre fram:Om jag tänker: 'Det lättar när jag lagt mig,sömnen skall lindra min sorg',då skrämmer du mig med drömmar,förfärar mig med syner,så att jag hellre vill kvävas.Hellre döden än denna plåga!För utropstecknet må vara en flåsig gaphals som skrattar åt sina egna skämt i den politiska polariseringens tid. Men det kan också – både i sin närvaro och i sin frånvaro – bära på ett möjligt språk för det mänskliga livets yttersta gränser.Kristina Lindquist, kulturskribentLitteraturNaja Marie Aidt: ”Har döden tagit något ifrån dig så ge det tillbaka” (Wahlström & Widstrand, 2018)Bibeln.

Here's where the new terrain will sit - you can see Jake's landing looker's right, and Flathead rising looker's left:And here's an overhead view of the new terrain:Update [11/24/2022]: the new trailmapWhy I interviewed himIt sits inconspicuous and unassuming, 13 air miles and 49 road miles south of Little Cottonwood Canyon. Five hundred acres in a 5,000-acre resort. Step off your plane at Salt Lake airport and you're 40 minutes away from half a dozen powder bangers and this is not one of them. It's Sundance. “Isn't that that film fiestival?” Epkon Bro asks as he punches Park City into his GPS. “No time for that on my HASHTAG POWDY TOWN TRIP!”And that's OK. We won't be needing Epkon Bro for today's stop. Because where we're going today is Utah before Utah skiing went nuclear. Before the California invasion. Before this state with just 15 ski areas became third in the nation in annual skier visits. When Snowbird opened in 1971, Utah had 1.1 million residents. Today it has 3.1 million. On any given Saturday, every single one of them is angling their SUV toward the mouth of the Cottonwoods.Except everyone skiing Sundance. Here's the locals bump we all wish we had: 300 inches of snow, 2,000-plus feet of vert, owners with the cash Gatlings blowing full auto. Everyone else, somewhere else. Most of the tourists. Most of the Salt Locals. Certainly the Epkon hordes, trying to ski their passes down to $5 a day. So, here it is: Utah skiing before all the things that changed Utah skiing, mostly for the worse. Twenty years ago? Thirty? Who cares. You found it. Enjoy it.What we talked aboutEarly snow in the West; from breakfast waiter to running the resort; when big brother takes you skiing; Sundance in the 1970s; setting yourself apart when you're the ski area down the road from the Wasatch; the longest-tenured ski resort employee in the country?; Timp Haven; enter Robert Redford; the resort's expanse and legacy of conservation; working for Redford; the origins and impact of the Sundance Film Festival; why Redford sold Sundance; a profile of the new owners; industry veteran Bill Jensen's impact on the resort; Sundance's rapid and radical transformation under its new owners; the fantastically weird Ray's lift and why the mountain finally upgraded it; bringing back the old Mandan lift unload and corresponding terrain; breaking down the new alignments for Stairway and Outlaw; why Red's isn't a high-speed lift; the massive new lift project Sundance is planning next and the potential terrain expansion that could go with that; what the new lift would mean for Flathead; why Outlaw ended up as a quad, rather than a six-pack; how Outlaw ended up running chairs from Big Sky's Swift Current quad; why the resort retired the Navajo lift in 1995, and brought back a similar lift called Jake's a decade ago; why Jake's runs on a different line than Navajo; Jake's odd lower mid-station; re-thinking the road that runs beneath Jake's; Sundance's huge snowmaking expansion; going deep on Sundance's Wildwood expansion and new lift; the return of hot bread and honey-butter; potential far-future expansion; upgrading the Bearclaw lodge; night-skiing; whether Sundance could expand its group of season pass reciprocal partners; and the possibility of Sundance joining Indy Pass.Why I thought that now was a good time for this interviewA decade ago, Sundance was a relic. Old lifts. Slow lifts. Fixed-grip lifts all. A handle tow at the bottom. No carpets. One chair out of the base: the unbelievable Ray's, a mile-long up-and-over doozy with two midstations and a ride time longer than the State of the Union. Some snowmaking. Not a lot. Not enough.Two years ago, longtime owner Robert Redford sold the joint. The new owners brought in Bill Jensen, a U.S. Ski & Snowboard Hall of Famer and onetime overlord of Breckenridge, Vail, Telluride, and Intrawest. Overnight, they smashed the place to bits and remade it in the image of a modern ski resort: Ray's demolished (it's going to live on at Lookout Pass), in its place a high-speed quad up the frontside – all the way up the frontside, to where the Mandan lift once landed – and a short connector lift in back; expanded night-skiing; dramatically expanded snowmaking; a trio of progression carpets at the base; more parking. This year: a 10-trail, 15-acre beginner-focused expansion. On its way out next: the 47-year-old Flathead triple. With what? You'll have to listen to the podcast for details on that.Once Flathead goes, Sundance will have one of the newest lift fleets on the continent (Redford did replace Arrowhead with a lift called Red's in 2016, and put in a new lift called Jake's in 2012), a reliable and modern collection buffeted by an ever-evolving snowmaking system that can defend the place from its relatively low elevation. It will have better skier flow, and (probably) more terrain for them to ski on.What it won't have are any of the ever-increasing numbers of Epkon Bros. The ones who won't ski anywhere off-pass. The ones obsessed with stats and biggest-tallest-most. The ones how don't mind company.Sundance is building something different. And it's something worth trying. What I got wrongI asked Chad why Jake's lift did not have a mid-station, like the old Navajo lift. Jake's does have a mid-station, of course, but it's just a touch higher than the bottom load. What I'd meant to ask was this, “why doesn't Jake's have a mid-mountain mid-station, as Navajo had?” I also incorrectly stated that Jake's followed the same line as Navajo, which was a bad reading of the trailmap on my part. Regardless, we sort it all out on the pod.Why you should ski SundanceIt's worth going a bit deeper on passes here, as Utah has what is probably the most mature megapass market of any major ski hub in America. All 14 of the state's major commercial ski areas are affiliated with one pass or another, including Sundance:If you've never heard of the Power Pass, it's the season pass for Mountain Capital Partners eight ski areas: Arizona Snowbowl, Purgatory, Hesperus, Brian Head, Nordic Valley, Sipapu, Pajarito, and Willamette Pass. Like the Ikon Pass, which includes Alterra's 14 ski areas plus a bunch of partners, the Power Pass has some add-ons: Copper Mountain, Loveland, Monarch, and Sundance. Here's the full roster:Anyway, it's a relatively low-volume regional pass, in no danger of overrunning Sundance or any other partner.Sundance doesn't have the elevation, snowfall totals, or sheer size of its megapass neighbors just to its north, but it doesn't have their crowds either, and it has just enough of those other things to make the skiing interesting. On weekends, on holidays, on fight-for-your-life LCC powder days, this is your post-up spot, an alternative where you can rack vert without really worrying about it and without really trying.Podcast notesSundance has one of the most interesting lift histories in the country. Most ski areas simply drop new lifts on their old lines. Sundance rarely does that, instead shuffling machines all over the mountain to try different configurations. Here's what the mountain looked like in 1988:In 1995, they removed the Navajo and Mandan doubles and installed the wacky Ray's, which landed lower than Mandan before curling over the mountain's backside:By 2012, Sundance realized it needed a second out-of-base lift again, and it build the Jake's quad. This lands approximately where Navajo did decades earlier, but follows a shorter line, starting from the newer, upper parking lots:Interestingly, the new Red's quad, built in 2016, follows approximately the same line as the Arrowhead triple, the 1985 Yan lift that it replaced, but Outlaw and Stairway both follow different lines than Ray's, with different load, unload, and mid-station points. Don't expect a direct replacement for Flathead either – Linebaugh outlines what that dramatic change will look like in the podcast.The Storm publishes year-round, and guarantees 100 articles per year.

En diciembre de 1900 tres guardianes del faro trabajando en un grupo aislado de islas en el Atlántico Norte desaparecieron sin dejar rastro. ¿Fue su desaparición el resultado de un extraño accidente? ¿O hubo algo más siniestro detrás de todo esto? El primer registro de que algo era anormal en las islas Flannan fue el 15 de diciembre de 1900 cuando la luz no funcionaba durante las condiciones climáticas adversas como lo hacía con regularidad en este tipo de clima. Cuando los miembros de una tripulación se acercaron a investigar descubrieron que el asta de la bandera no tenía bandera, todas las cajas de provisiones habituales se habían dejado en el embarcadero para reabastecerse y, lo que es más inquietante, ninguno de los trabajadores del faro estaba allí para darles la bienvenida en tierra. Jim Harvie, el capitán de Hesperus, intentó llamarlos haciendo sonar el silbato del barco y disparando una bengala, pero no tuvo éxito. Hasta el día de hoy, lo que sucedió en este lugar continúa siendo un enigma.

Early in the second century a pagan named Catallus bought Hesperus, his wife Zoë, and their sons Cyriac and Theodulus as slaves. All of them were Christians, and would not eat anything that had been sacrificed to idols — they would throw all such food to the dogs and go hungry themselves. When Catallus learned of this, he was enraged and began to torture them cruelly, beginning with the children. When none of them could be moved from his confession of Christ, the entire family was cast into a hot furnace, where they gave up their souls to God. Their bodies remained unburnt.

In 1900, the the newly Flannan isle lighthouse was staffed by three lightkeepers.  In December of that year a passing ship noticed the light was out at the light house and shortly after reporting the issue, a supply ship was sent to investigate.  When they approached the island, everything was quiet with no sign of life.  The mystery would only grow once they landed on the island and entered the lighthouse.Support the show (https://www.buymeacoffee.com/cosmicsponge)

Callum is back and we go a little different this week as we discuss the Flannan Isle Lighthouse mystery. The mystery of Flannan Isle Lighthouse was first discovered when the steamer Anchtor made note in its log that the light was not working in bad weather conditions. This was further confirmed when the relief vessel Hesperus arrived at the island, and found the island in a mysterious state of disarray and the three men tasked with manning the lighthouse had also mysteriously disappeared.Find us on our socials;Website: www.ccunsolved.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/ccunsolved/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ccunsolvedTwitter: https://twitter.com/ccunsolvedEmail: ccunsolved@gmail.com

On Boxing Day, December 26th 1900, the lighthouse supply ship Hesperus arrived at the tiny island of Eilean Mor -- the largest of Flannan Islands off the northwestern coast of Scotland.  She was there to drop off food and supplies as well as relief keeper, Joseph Moore,  who was to begin his 6-week stint at the station.  But when repeated blasts of the horn and even a flare fired over the lighthouse failed to bring the keepers down to the dock, Captain Harvie became concerned.  So he sent Moore up to the lighthouse to discover why the men didn't come down to the landing to greet the ship.  Upon entering the living quarters, Moore found it deserted.   A thorough search of the island turned up few clues, but the bodies of the missing keepers were never found.  It was if James Ducat, Thomas Marshall and Donald McArthur had vanished into thin air.https://beyondthefringe.buzzsprout.com/
