There is a trail that goes north into the woods just behind the Hanover Food Co-op. It takes seven minutes to walk there from the Green and about 30 minutes to get to a lookout point from the sign at the trailhead.
Hanover resident chronicles years of relentless adventure-seeking in new book on 'extreme sports'
Hanover, while not quite nestled in a Canadian mountain range, has a rugged, outdoor allure of its own.
It is not a coincidence that so many people experience a childhood urge to climb -- to grip and follow the rough bark of a tree that guides one gracefully off the ground.
I heard more than one student comment on the grotesque nature of CBS's new sitcom, "Baby Bob," long before the first episode aired.
Maguy Marin presented her unique choreography to audiences Friday and Saturday night

La Gran Scena puts pizzazz into opera with humor and sex
With its recognizable cast and string of flowery Beatles covers, one could treat "I Am Sam" with the laxity of just another surface-skimming tear-jerker.
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences announced yesterday nominees for the 74th annual Academy Awards, which will air on ABC March 24, at 5 p.m. Everyone remembers shocking moments in Oscar history: appeals to ease world-hunger, one-arm pushups, violent emotional outbursts (Roberto Benigni in 1998) and everything else entirely non-cinematic. While this year very well may shrink to a forgettable smudge in the dawn of next year's 75th anniversary, at least the well-chosen nominees have the potential to redeem last year's disappointments. Popular commercial releases like "Pearl Harbor" and "A.I." take a backseat to the more original and artistic releases "Amlie," "In the Bedroom" and "A Beautiful Mind." The first film up for Best Picture is "A Beautiful Mind," starring Russell Crowe (nominated for Best Actor) as John Nash, the schizophrenic, Pulitzer Prize-winning mathematician. Jennifer Connelly, playing Nash's wife Alicia, is a great candidate for winner of the Best Actress in a Supporting Role category.
