Tough New Years
Hands torn and bleeding, the second of two men attempting a grueling
climb up a half-mile of sheer granite in California's Yosemite National
Park cleared one of the ascent's most difficult stretches after days of
failed attempts and waiting.
Growing crowds of onlookers at the foot of the Dawn
Wall at Yosemite's El Capitan peak broke into cheers - and some tears -
Friday when Kevin Jorgeson finally grasped a razor-sharp hold that had
eluded him, clipped an anchor to secure himself, then shouted in
triumph, according to online accounts by colleagues at the scene.
"Pure joy," Jorgeson wrote afterward on his Facebook page, next to a photograph showing his bloody, bandaged hands.

SPOKANE, Wash. — Basketball is
considered a game of speed. For center Przemek Karnowski of No. 6
Gonzaga, the key to his success this season has been slowing his game
down.
Karnowski scored 18 points and grabbed nine rebounds as Gonzaga beat Santa Clara 79-57 on Saturday.
"I'm
trying to be more patient on the block when I get the ball," said
Karnowski, who sank 8-of-10 shots. "I look for open guys, and if they
are not there I make my move."
Coach Mark Few agreed that the more deliberate play of the 7-foot-1 Karnowski has led to a great run in recent games.
"It's good to see him slowing down," Few said. "He's a smart kid and a good player. He's a force."

The Jackson Hole Mountain Resort and Grand Targhee Resort in
northwest Wyoming have each exceeded 200 inches of snowfall this winter.
The Jackson Hole News & Guide reports (http://bit.ly/1rPJ8Xz ) that most other major resorts in the Rockies are still trying to reach the 200-inch mark and some haven't reached 100 inches.
In the two snowiest seasons in the past 17 years - 2007-08 and 2010-11 - the Jackson Hole Mountain Resort closed with 558 inches in 2008 and 605 inches in 2011.
On the downside, some recent heavy snows in a short period of time have created high avalanche conditions around the Tetons. Resorts have had to close down some ski runs in order to perform avalanche prevention work.

SUNSET PLANETS: The sunset
planet show is still underway. When the sun goes down tonight, step
outside and look west. Venus and Mercury are shining through the
twilight less than 1o apart. Alan Dyer photographed the conjunction on Jan. 10th from the City of Rocks State Park in New Mexico:
"Mercury is nearing its greatest angle away from the sun
and will remain near Venus for the next week," says Dyer. "Mercury is
very easy to sight with unaided eyes. If you have not seen the
innermost planet, this weekend is a good chance to check it off your
'to see' list."
Dyer adds "a fact to keep in
mind: both planets have probes orbiting them, but both are nearing
the end of their missions. Europe's Venus Express has ended its mission
and is about to make its final plunge into the dense Venusian
atmosphere. At Mercury, NASA's Messenger probe has gained a small
reprieve, with it now expecting to impact on Mercury at the end of April, a month later than expected."
Two bright planets + two doomed spacecraft = one amazing sunset. Take a look!
