Eight Miles High - Topic profile

Up before dawn Saturday for 15 miles of awesome MUni at Backbone trail in the Santa Monica Mountains. Awesome views with 7.3 miles of continuous climbing and about 2,000 feet elevation gain. Then back down woo! To parahrase Pick Floyd, I was " UN comfortably Numb " after the long, physically demanding ride! VIDEO I thought this time, for one last POV idea, I'd try ...

The Film The mythologizing of the ’60s gets a lusty, Germanic twist in “Eight Miles High,” a full-bodied take on the life of the world-class sex kitten Uschi Obermaier (Natalia Avelon). Directed by Achim Bornhak from a screenplay written with Olaf Kraemer, the movie follows, with refreshing lack of judgment and titillating brio, the überbohemian peregrinations of a wild...

EIGHT MILES HIGH ABOUT THE FILM Exuding the sexy poutiness of a Teutonic Bridget Bardot gone wild and the underground glamour and bad-girl attitude of Kate Moss, with just a dash of Jane Fonda’s chic revolutionary zeal, Uschi Obermaier not only shook conservative German society but also the anti-establishment and feminist movements she became part of. The hippie nymph and successful model...

I thought it would be fun to put this together. It's a pretty good list considering the source.... For the most part I like it although I think it has some pretty silly choices and some fairly glaring omissions. No list will be perfect however, except the list I create for me or the list you create for you. All in all though it's a pretty good compilation. Enjoy! 01. “Johnny B. ...

WEST COLUMBIA -- Every day, Sergio leaves for work at the House of Raeford Farms poultry plant he wonders whether it'll be his last. It's a matter of time, he believes, before immigration agents raid the plant. Smoking a cigarette on his porch, the 40-year-old undocumented poultry worker from Mexico speaks nervously. He says there's a growing concern among workers that immigration ...

Here is how I think Morgoth's fortress may have looked like: The monolithic Thangorodrim chain rises above the wide, dismal planes of Dor Daedeloth like three shark fins, jagged and harsh against a dull red sky. Rivers of grinding ice flow down the angular faces of the three dread mountains, artificially raised by Morgoth from the ground as impregnable shields for the dense ...

Well I guess you always have to expect the worst from Cape Verde hurricanes. Hurricane Ike exploded from a Cat. 1 storm into a Cat. 4 storm in just 6 hours yesterday. Still too hard to tell where this is going to make landfall and if the intensity is going to stay. Something to be watched for sure. Ike ignites into 'extremely dangerous' Category 4 hurricane ...

The index to Craig's 2008 North American Adventure can be found here. I*really should have been more on-form - I was catching a flight to Vegas of all places, after all - but for whatever reason I really wasn’t having a good morning.* Maybe it was the 5am alarm call or maybe it was the pouring rain that drenched me as I made my way to the airport, maybe it was just the time of the month...

http://eureferendum.blogspot.com/2008/08/greenspin .html The second remarkable point is the reference to the melting ice flow on which these polar bears reputedly lived. This is pure, unadulterated fiction. As readers will recall – borne out from the original report -observers spotted the bears already in the water. Furthermore, there are no indications that the nine (or ten) bears was...
