Ice Collapse Triggers Massive Avalanche in New Zealand

by 725195

Every now and then, Mother Nature offers a reminder to skiers, mountaineers, and climbers: when you’re in the mountains, you’re merely a visitor, and I’m the one calling the shots.

Photographer Tori Harp captured one such moment, filming a big avalanche triggered by collapsing ice on the Kaufmann Glacier in New Zealand.

“As the glacier moves under the force of its own weight, it advances until it meets a vertical cliff face,” Harp explained in her post. “Gravity then takes over, sending hundreds of thousands of tonnes of ice, snow, and rock crashing down in a dramatic collapse.”

“While this happens regularly, today’s event was particularly powerful,” she added.

The Kaufmann Glacier splits off from the Tasman Glacier, New Zealand’s longest glacier.

Located in Aoraki/Mount Cook National Park, the Tasman Glacier—also known as Haupapa—was named for Abel Tasman, a Dutch explorer. Several geologic features in New Zealand have two names, one European and the other, like Huapapa, being Maori. The name Huapapa describes the glacier’s ice. 

You can, in fact, ski there. Alpine Guides, a guiding outfit, offers ski trips up the glacier using helicopters. 

As Harp pointed out, collapsing ice and resulting avalanches aren’t uncommon in these kinds of alpine environments. 

Glaciers are in continuous, albeit slow, movement, which, according to NASA Earthdata, causes stress. That stress leads to cracking and eventually blocks of ice cleaving away from glaciers. 

Or, in other words, the ice and rock that make up glaciers and mountainous peaks are in flux. And when bits or pieces fall away, they can trigger pockets of snow, creating avalanches. Mountain climbers manage these risks through careful route selection and other measures, but traveling in exposed areas includes some inherent, unavoidable risk. 

In other cases, this ever-changing state of geologic affairs can impact ski resort operations. Last winter, a significant rockslide near the famed Peak Express at Whistler Blackcomb, British Columbia, led to the chairlift’s temporary closure. 

As for Harp, her adventures in wild areas like the Kaufmann Glacier have resulted in some stunning shots. You see more of them here.

PakarPBN

A Private Blog Network (PBN) is a collection of websites that are controlled by a single individual or organization and used primarily to build backlinks to a “money site” in order to influence its ranking in search engines such as Google. The core idea behind a PBN is based on the importance of backlinks in Google’s ranking algorithm. Since Google views backlinks as signals of authority and trust, some website owners attempt to artificially create these signals through a controlled network of sites.

In a typical PBN setup, the owner acquires expired or aged domains that already have existing authority, backlinks, and history. These domains are rebuilt with new content and hosted separately, often using different IP addresses, hosting providers, themes, and ownership details to make them appear unrelated. Within the content published on these sites, links are strategically placed that point to the main website the owner wants to rank higher. By doing this, the owner attempts to pass link equity (also known as “link juice”) from the PBN sites to the target website.

The purpose of a PBN is to give the impression that the target website is naturally earning links from multiple independent sources. If done effectively, this can temporarily improve keyword rankings, increase organic visibility, and drive more traffic from search results.

Critics Choice Super Awards 2026 Nominations: Superman, Obsession

by 725195

“Superman” flew to the head of the pack with the sixth annual Critics Choice Super Awards, the Critics Choice Association’s celebration of the most popular, fan-favorite corners of film and television across the superhero, science fiction/fantasy, horror and action genres.

James Gunn’s DC Studios tentpole led all films with six nominations, including best superhero movie. Its ensemble accounted for half of the best actor in a superhero movie field, with David Corenswet, Edi Gathegi and Nicholas Hoult all making the cut. Hoult picked up a second nomination for best villain in a movie, while Rachel Brosnahan earned a nod for best actress in a superhero movie.

On the television side, the final season of Prime Video’s superhero series “The Boys” led with five nominations, including best superhero series, limited series or made-for-TV movie. Antony Starr scored two nominations, for best actor and best villain, while co-stars Valorie Curry and Colby Minifie each earned best actress nominations.

The superhero categories also recognize comic book and video game-inspired series.

A cluster of films followed “Superman” with four nominations each: Focus Features’ horror sleeper “Obsession,” Warner Bros.’ horror hit “Weapons,” Marvel Studios’ “The Fantastic Four: The First Steps,” and Amazon MGM Studios’ “Masters of the Universe,” directed by Travis Knight, and “Project Hail Mary,” directed by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller.

Elsewhere in the film races, the reboot “The Naked Gun” earned Pamela Anderson a nom for best actress in an action movie. Ryan Gosling and Sandra Hüller received acting nominations as part of “Project Hail Mary’s” four-nomination haul, while Emma Stone and Jesse Plemons were recognized for Yorgos Lanthimos’ sci-fi feature “Bugonia.”

Matching her Oscar-winning performance as Aunt Gladys in Zach Cregger’s box office hit “Weapons,” veteran actress Amy Magidan picked double noms in best actress in a horror movie and best villain. In the former category, she’s joined by another Oscar winner from this year, Jessie Buckley for “The Bride!,” alongside Alison Brie (“Together”), Rachel McAdams (“Send Help”), Renate Reinsve (“Backrooms”) and breakout star Inde Navarette for “Obsession.”

On the TV side, the second season of the post-apocalyptic drama “Fallout,” the fantasy epic “House of the Dragon” and the dystopian thriller “Paradise” each earned four nominations.

The Marvel series “Wonder Man” earned Yahya Abdul-Mateen II a best actor nomination following his surprise Emmy bid. Nicolas Cage also received a nomination for the crime series “Spider-Noir,” joining a lineup of prestige TV contenders that includes Colin Farrell for the noir drama “Sugar,” Rhea Seehorn for “Pluribus,” Rebecca Ferguson for “Silo” and Holly Hunter for “Star Trek: Starfleet Academy.”

The Super Awards, which the Critics Choice Association launched to spotlight genre storytelling that mainstream awards often overlook, feature parallel film and television competitions across the four genres, with the superhero categories also encompassing comic book and video game adaptations.

Winners will be announced via press release on Thursday, Aug. 6.

The full list of nominations is below.

Swedish Professional Skier Goes Big in Summer Ski Adventure Up North (Video)

by 725195

Aside from a few exceptions, the ski season in North America has come to an end. Instead of skiing, we’re biking, climbing, and doing whatever other hobbies best distract from the fact that, yes, there are three to four months before winter begins anew.

But that doesn’t mean that in other corners of the northern hemisphere, skiers aren’t still getting after it.

Recently, the high-flying Swede Jesper Tjäder stopped by Skistar Trysil, a Scandinavian ski resort that builds an impressive array of park features for use during the warmer months. 

While there, Tjäder put on the kind of show he’s known for, laying down a dizzying array of rail combinations with some airtime for good measure.

If you’re not into the POV angle, Tjäder also shared some clips filmed from afar. 

View this post on Instagram

This summer, Trysil planned to have the park open for two windows: June 26 to June 28, and July 3 to July 5. The ski resort also hosted a summer camp with another professional skier, Birk Ruud. 

Beyond Trysil, a few other European mountains offer skiing after the snow stops falling. One hotspot, Zermatt, Switzerland, houses the highest and largest summer ski area on the continent. And it’s not just groomed trails. The slushy Snowpark Zermatt features jumps and jibs, drawing crowds of freestyle skiers looking to add a postscript to their winter. 

For Tjäder, the visit to Trysil wasn’t the first time he’d dusted off his skis this summer. Last month, alongside other pros, he attended the Scandinavian Team Battle in Copenhagen, Denmark. The unique competition takes place on the flanks of a powerplant that, with artificial snow, doubles as a year-round ski area. 

In the battle, Tjäder took second alongside his teammate and fellow countryman, Oliver Movenius.

Netflix’s ‘Little House on the Prairie’ Creator on Woke Comments, Tradwife Culture

by 725195

On July 9, “The Boys” writer and “Archive 81” creator Rebecca Sonnenshine fulfills a dream she’s had since she was 10 years old, with the debut of her “Little House on the Prairie” adaptation on Netflix.

A lifelong Laura Ingalls Wilder fan, Sonnenshine — who recently had success with the word-of-mouth blockbuster “The Housemaid” —  pitched the streamer and show producers hard when she found out a “Little House” reboot was in the works. She landed the job not in spite of her work on supernatural, horror and genre series like “The Vampire Diaries,” but because of it.

“I think they were a little skeptical, but also had been thinking, ‘Oh, maybe we should look for a genre writer to give this some shape,’” Sonnenshine tells Variety. “And at the end of the meeting, the producers are like, ‘Wow, you know a lot about “Little House on the Prairie!”‘ Yes, I do, I know a lot about it. I didn’t even have to reread the books. That’s how much they’re in my brain. I can just talk about them.”

Sonnenshine, who previously worked with Netflix on her now-canceled drama “Archive 81,” sold them on her idea, which was a much larger scale version of the story than was told in the beloved NBC classic starring Melissa Gilbert.

“I was really pursuing it — these are the first books I ever read,” Sonnenshine says. “This is my origin story. Guys always talk about, ‘My origin story is Superman, I read the comics,’ all that stuff. And so my origin story is ‘Little House on the Prairie’ — and that’s how I got to be writing ‘Archive 81.’ [‘Little House’] just really shaped me. The books are so cinematic that they really gave me this brain as a kid of seeing things in pictures, and I think it really led me into being a filmmaker in general.”

While Sonnenshine’s “Little House” still centers on the story of a young Laura Ingalls (Alice Halsey) as she and her family — father Charles (Luke Bracey), mother Caroline (Crosby Fitzgerald) and older sister Mary (Skywalker Hughes) — move from their home in Wisconsin to build a new life in Kansas, it focuses much more on the Indigenous people connected to the larger narrative featured in Wilder’s actual “Little House” book series, the Osage. In particular, it introduces the mixed-race Osage family, the Mitchells: husband and wife William (Meegwun Fairbrother) and White Sun (Alyssa Wapanatâhk) and their daughter Good Eagle (Wren Zhawenim Gotts).

“As an adult, everything is different. Especially ‘Little House on the Prairie,’ it’s all about the Osage,” Sonnenshine says. “The Osage are all over that book, but we don’t know them at all. And I thought, well, we have to know them. I have to figure out a way that we can know them, and how do you do that? Trying to create a family that parallels the Ingalls. I had to do a lot of research to figure out how to do that, and I did and we worked with a story consultant named Robert Warrior.”

Despite support from Netflix — the streamer has already ordered a second season of the show, which is now in production — when news of the “Little House” reboot was made public in January 2025, Sonnenshine was faced with her first wave of criticism, led by Megyn Kelly. 

“Netflix, if you woke-ify ‘Little House on the Prairie’ I will make it my singular mission to absolutely ruin your project,” Kelly posted on X while sharing the news of the Netflix reboot.

Melissa Gilbert, who starred on the original “Little House” for nine seasons and 204 episodes between 1974 and 1982, came to the rescue on Threads with a response: “Ummm…watch the original again. TV doesn’t get too much more ‘woke’ than we did. We tackled: racism, addiction, nativism, antisemitism, misogyny, rape, spousal abuse and every other ‘woke ‘ topic you can think of. Thank you very much.”

But on the eve of the “Little House” reboot premiere come renewed questions about what changes could be made to the series, which will focus much more heavily on the story of the Indigenous people who lives are affected by the arrival of the Ingalls and the other pioneers moving into their territory in the late 1800s in Independence, Kansas.

“I’m not even sure what ‘woke’ means to people anymore, to be honest,” Sonnenshine says. “I know what I think it means, which is the definition of it being aware and alert to social injustice and prejudice, in particular racial prejudice. So, when people say, ‘I hope it’s not woke,’ I think, ‘Really? Oh, that’s interesting.’ But I don’t think people are using it in that manner; I think it’s just become a catch-all word for things that I don’t quite understand. If I had to sum it up, what people are afraid of is that something from their childhood will be portrayed in a way that scares them.”

Sonnenshine is sticking with what she’s “been saying from the beginning,” which is “I feel like people are worried for no reason.”

“I don’t feel like there’s anything that people are not going to like,” she says. “We’re exploring some interesting issues, but I think that they would be interested in those, too. I think conservative people are really interested in Native American stories, honestly. When people watch the show, it’s like, ‘We want to know more about the Mitchells,’ and that’s kind of across the board. I think that they’ll really like it. I think people just are afraid of whatever they’re afraid of, and that’s OK. But I honestly think that there’s nothing to be afraid of and it’s a story that will really resonate with everybody.”

It’s not lost on Sonnenshine that one of the ways audiences could connect with the show is through the wholesome, cozy, cottage-core, DIY vibes that are present throughout the “Little House” reboot, and have become increasingly trendy in recent years. On the one hand, there’s the very dark reality of what life and death looks like in a tale of survival on the prairie — and on the other, there’s the Ingalls enjoying a pretty adorable homemade Christmas.

Sonneshine hopes that audiences can embrace the balance of that “Little House” aesthetic without veering into tradwife discourse.

“It’s fascinating to me. I am super crafty, like I come from a crafty family, and so for me, obviously, I’m a non-tradwife,” Sonnenshine says. “I come from a family of doers, and I learned from my dad. He was a carpenter, he was a mechanic, he made solar panel prototypes, he invented computer programs. He was a gardener. He raised sheep and chickens, and he just liked to do things. And my mom was the same way. She sewed my clothes. She was a great cook. She would call it ‘putting up’ the vegetables. You’re pickling vegetables, you’re making jam, you’re doing all these things that I don’t feel like should be like cornered by tradwives. I like to do all those things. I’m a great knitter, I’m a great embroiderer.”

The self-proclaimed “not a tradwife” but bigtime baker and sewer says working with your hands like the Ingalls “doesn’t have to be an all or nothing thing” in the digital age.

“Anybody can pick up a book and learn how to bake something, or draw something, or plant a garden. Those things are not the exclusive landscape of tradwives or influencers, or any of those things,” Sonnenshine says. “I think what I want for people to just think about is, what little things would interest me that I could do with my hands and incorporate into everyday life?”

A Private Blog Network (PBN) is a collection of websites that are controlled by a single individual or organization and used primarily to build backlinks to a “money site” in order to influence its ranking in search engines such as Google. The core idea behind a PBN is based on the importance of backlinks in Google’s ranking algorithm. Since Google views backlinks as signals of authority and trust, some website owners attempt to artificially create these signals through a controlled network of sites.

In a typical PBN setup, the owner acquires expired or aged domains that already have existing authority, backlinks, and history. These domains are rebuilt with new content and hosted separately, often using different IP addresses, hosting providers, themes, and ownership details to make them appear unrelated. Within the content published on these sites, links are strategically placed that point to the main website the owner wants to rank higher. By doing this, the owner attempts to pass link equity (also known as “link juice”) from the PBN sites to the target website.

The purpose of a PBN is to give the impression that the target website is naturally earning links from multiple independent sources. If done effectively, this can temporarily improve keyword rankings, increase organic visibility, and drive more traffic from search results.

Ski Royalty Says "I Do"

by 725195

Forget Madison Square Garden or private Italian islands, the biggest wedding of the summer happened on a ranch in California’s Sierra Valley.

Sure, there weren’t velvet ropes or paparazzi hiding in the bushes, but there were plenty of dusty cowboy boots, rusty tractors, and enough ski industry heavy hitters to make it feel like the world premiere of an A-list film.

The nice thing about rubbing elbows with ski celebrities is that they don’t act like entitled VIPs. They’re hardworking guides, photographers, athletes, and filmmakers who’ve spent years crossing paths in remote refugios, airport terminals, parking lots, and trailheads.

Once you put them all in an old barn with a stocked bar and a dance floor, you’re sure to have a good time.

Todd Ligare and Amie Engerbretson’s wedding venue in Sierraville, California.

Aaron Blatt

The Night Before

Before the wedding, there was Denim Night. With everyone dressed in their most creative jean-themed outfits, it looked like an après party wandered onto the set of “Yellowstone.”

During the speeches, Todd’s brother wasted very little time before reviving a tradition of having the couple chug beer out of their ski boots. As foam dripped down her chin, Amie quickly confirmed, “My Atomics are stiffer than Todd’s Armadas.” 

With varying degrees of success, Amie and her close friend attempted to turn skiers into line dancers. It turns out skiing powder and dancing in unison require completely different skill sets. Then Gabe Schroder hopped on stage as his alter ego, Super G, putting a country spin on his classic ski raps.

The Main Event

After Todd stoically walked down the aisle, Amie arrived on horseback. The horse, appropriately named Cowboy, was a little grumpy. “It was the first time a bride with a wedding dress had ever ridden him,” Amie said. “Luckily, I didn’t get bucked off!”

Longtime ski photographer Liam Doran officiated the ceremony. Years earlier, he had led a photoshoot in Revelstoke where Todd and Amie first met. His important role in their ceremony served as a reminder of how small the ski world is.

After the (lengthy) first kiss sealed their vows, attendees headed across the open meadow to the reception, where bartenders from the legendary Slot Bar took over, and the McConkey Spatula shot ski started making rounds. A classic chuckwagon-style dinner on the lawn followed. Later, in the barn, Todd and Amie’s first dance to “Stand By Me” was followed by one of the weekend’s biggest moments.

During the highly-choreographed father and daughter dance, Amie’s dad (former pro skier and photographer Jeff Engerbertson) managed to launch her into a backflip. Which, as it turns out, had its own set of challenges. “I have a very torn meniscus that I’ll have surgery on in a week,” Amie said. “And my dad sustained serious injuries in January when he was smoked by a snowmobile while working at X Games.”

From there, things progressed exactly as you’d expect they would when you add a couple hundred skiers to a rustic dance floor. After the live band played their encore, DJs took over with the raucous scene, eventually morphing into a late-night silent disco. 

One rumor from the evening remains unconfirmed, with nobody wanting to see the evidence firsthand: apparently, someone danced so hard (in assless chaps, no less) they lost three toenails.

Aaron Blatt

The Guest List

Shortly after the ceremony, Cody Townsend was seen catching up with JT Holmes.

Sammy Carlson wandered by, and Olympian Daron Rahlves wasn’t far behind. Among others, McKenna Peterson, Griffin Post, Lexi Dupont, Dash Longe, Molly Armanino, Connery Lundin, and Elyse Saugstad were all there too.

Even a very pregnant Michelle Parker was onsite serving as an official wedding photographer with her husband (and award-winning action sports photographer) Aaron Blatt. 

Then there were the people responsible for making many of those athletes famous in the first place. A long list of photographers, filmmakers, and storytellers who have documented skiing for decades were scattered throughout the crowd, including Adam Clark, Tom Day, Ming Poon, Chris Whittaker, Hank de Vre, and the guys from Sweetgrass (Mike Brown and Zac Ramras).

There were so many familiar faces that it became easier to stop keeping track. It felt like an industry party from the old SIA days, except everyone had traded hoodies for western wear.

Aaron Blatt

It’s A Small World

The easiest way to describe the weekend is to call it skiing’s version of a celebrity wedding. A more accurate description is that it felt like a community reunion.

When you spend enough winters chasing powder, eventually everyone crosses paths. A film trip turns into a friendship. A chance encounter in the lift line leads to a lengthy text chain. Or, in the case of the newlyweds, a photo shoot in Revelstoke turns into a marriage a decade later.

“Our biggest hope was to give all the wonderful people in our life a chance to meet each other,” Amie said. “It seemed like that happened.”

For one weekend on a ranch in Northern California, the ski world’s biggest names united to raise a glass in celebration of their friends, Todd and Amie.

Which, as it turned out, is skiing’s version of a royal wedding.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce Getting Married at Madison Square Garden

by 725195

After days of speculation, the Associated Press has confirmed that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are getting married at New York’s Madison Square Garden on Friday.

Police assigned to patrol the Madison Square Garden area have said they were briefed on a potential increase in crowds on Friday. The streets have been shut down around the venue, with trucks unloading equipment for the most anticipated wedding in recent memory. There have been reports this week that nearly 1,000 guests will attend the MSG wedding, in addition to performances by Stevie Nicks and Tim McGraw.

The couple announced their engagement on Tuesday, Aug. 26, 2025. shocking the world. They both posted a photo of Kelce on one knee proposing to Swift in a massive flower garden. “Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married,” their caption read. There was also a photo of Swift’s giant diamond ring.

Swift’s ring was from jewelry designer Kindred Lubeck and Artifex Fine Jewelry. Kelce reportedly designed the ring with Lubeck, which used an old mine and rectangle cut diamonds with antique references.

Just weeks before the engagement reveal, Swift had appeared on Kelce and his brother Jason’s football podcast, “New Heights,” to announce her new album, “The Life of a Showgirl.” Once again, the couple dominated the news cycle, earning 13 million YouTube views in 24 hours. That was highest ever for a podcast, and 1.3 million people watched the episode simultaneously when it released, which set a Guinness World Record.

On top of that, Kelce appeared on the cover of GQ magazine and spoke openly about his and Swift’s relationship for the first time with a major publication.

“I hadn’t experienced somebody in the same shoes as me, having a partner who understands the scrutiny, understands the ups and downs of being in front of millions,” he told GQ. “That was very relatable, seeing how exhausted she would get after shows. She may not think of herself as an athlete. She will never tell anyone that she is an athlete. But I’ve seen what she goes through. I’ve seen the amount of work that she puts on her body, and it’s mind-blowing.”

The 48-Hour Test Drive Is the New Car-Buying Hack

by 725195


(TestMiles) – The most important part of buying a car is still the test drive. Not the online configurator. Not the monthly payment calculator. Not the walkaround video where someone says “premium feel” twelve times before opening the glovebox. The test drive still matters because a car is not a phone, a toaster, or a […]

June Snow Dusts Ski Resorts Across the West

by 725195

It may be June, but high in the mountains across the West, the flakes are still flying.

Over the weekend, on Sunday morning, summer snow dusted the peaks of ski resorts in Salt Lake City’s Cottonwood Canyons, making for an arresting sight. 

“Early start to the preseason,” Brighton Resort wrote in a social media post, sharing webcam footage from the top of its Crest chairlift. “Just kidding, but it did snow near the top of the mountain today.”

The post prompted a few comments (jokingly) asking about Brighton’s early-season jib park, the Bonezone. Obviously, the resort would’ve needed a few more inches or feet to make that happen, but for skiers eagerly waiting for the start of next season, it’s fun to dream this time of year. 

One canyon over, Alta Ski Area also benefited from the brief return of winter. 

The snow arrived early in the day, and, for a few hours, it could’ve been October or November in Albion Basin. By the end of Sunday, though, most of the snow had melted away under the sun, leaving behind a few high-altitude patches.

Alta Ski Area

Further north, in the area around Montana’s Big Sky resort, a winter weather warning was in effect through Monday afternoon with more than six inches of wet snow possible at higher elevations, according to the National Weather Service.

As of Sunday night, snow was still drifting past Big Sky’s Lone Peak Tram webcam.

The chilly weather should be short-lived.

By the end of this week, forecasters expect temperatures in the mid-60s and clear skies at Alta. Temperatures are set to climb in the Big Sky area, too.

The brief burst comes after a challenging and often snowless winter for the West’s ski resorts. Some years, ski areas like Mammoth Mountain and Palisades Tahoe, California, are open for skiing into June or even later. But this season, they’ve already wrapped up the snow sports side of their operations.

Still, Timberline Lodge, Oregon, remains open for skiing (and also got some snow). So does Banff Sunshine Village, Alberta, which, after a memorably snowy winter, opted to reopen for a few weeks of summer skiing. The resort plans to keep the party going through July 5.
