Outdoor Recreation - February 2007

Why would the eight hikers(three who got stranded w/ Velvet)go to a place in the worst part of winter,where lives have been lost,that has a history of avalanches?If they needed a rush,jump out of a plane.Common sense would come in handy at times.

anybody 30 and over that can skate. I have bought some inline skates so I can skate with my kids and i've just had a go and i'm all over the place. My kids make it look so easy. Is it an age thing or a balance thing.

I'm a long-time hunter fairly familiar with long guns, but I never understood what the magnum designation means. For example, other than the caliber, what differentiates a .44 magnum from a .45?

My boyfriend is crazy enough to go skydiving. But he has stress related asthma, heart/chest problems, and too much oxygen in his blood.

Would he pass the tests/requirements for it?
If he does should I let him go anyway?

We've been fighting about this for days so I really need help.

I have a problem when I deer hunt. I go out into the woods and get into my blind or tree stand and get comfortable. After about an hour, I get bored and I fall asleep.

I made a product that has a wireless, battery operated motion detector that is fastened to a tree. It can be set up to 400 feet away. The detector senses any movement within 40 feet and send a signal back to a small receiver I keep in my shirt pocket. It is connected to a small ear bud makes a chirping sound when something sets off the motion detector.

I've just finished making it and haven't field tested it yet. I'm just seeing if there would be a market for something like this. I would sell the set for about $40 each with additional motion detectors going for $20 each.
Would you buy something like that? Also, does anyone know of any corporation that would buy an invention like that?
Thanks.

I load for a .22-250 using Hornady 50 grain Vmax bullets. Sometimes my two 'working' loads shoot into one hole. Sometimes they won't shoot into an inch with everything the same. How do I get more consistency out of them?

This is a rephrase of my last question which was obviously unclear. Hunting is legal in Texas, and you dont have to eat the meat. In California its legal, if a person sees a lion or any wild cat, its legal to shoot on site. Bigcatrescue.org, shows that nearly all 50 states in american legalize this practice. In the Middle East the governments collect a cat species called, Sand Cats, a little smaller than average house cats, and uses them for military target practice. To exclude the idea of this practice taking place is just ignorant, and obviously an uninformed person would reply with hostility. there are other forms of cruellty aswell, but that will be found on peoples own time.

I have been skateboarding basically since kinder garden or first or second grade but i really wasn't into it for real until 5th grade. i skateboard a lot with my best friend(Bill) who is in 12 and a 7th grader. he has been skateboarding just as long as i have but i am better. skateboarding my top number one very extreme best sports. same with bill, but bill never wants to admit. the problem is that where ever we go to skateboard we get kicked out and people call the police on us. where can we go to skateboard. we live in North Dallas, Texas and there are no skateparks to go to. they are all from other parts of the city and very faraway and plus our parents don't have time to take us because of work. today, me and bill were both with a 17 year old bmxer at an elementary school skateboarding the high tables doing tricks like ollies and pop shuv-its off them. then, a dumb mom who shouldn't even give a care called the

Considering the Press Release from Remington Arms severing ties and links with Jim Zumbo because of what he wrote in his blog (see Remington link, http://www.remington.com/library/press/2007/2007-1.asp ) and the fact that Outdoor Life also suspended his blog (see Outdoor Life blog, http://outdoorlife.blogs.com/zumbo/ ) what exactly did he blog about that ticked off Remington, Outdoor Life, and any other sponsors?
