Beer Reviews
One of my favorite things about beer is hops. They can transform a sweet soup of malty goodness into a palatable, heavenly dream. Once upon a time, hops were primarily used to balance out the beer’s sweetness and make it a more drinkable experience. Soon thereafter, its preservative qualities made its mark on the culture, adding to the mysterious flower’s importance. … read more

Gallery Stroll: Art is Springing Up Everywhere
The dainty flowers push through the hardened ground, past the decayed winter foliage to find sunlight and warmth, announcing it’s spring! Often you do not see the single bud emerge, or even the little patch, but eventually, when your garden is filled with bright flowers, you realize the metamorphosis is complete and you are surrounded by life and beauty. I liken the journey of the bud to that of artists, toiling away in basements and old garages, sheds and drab spare bedrooms, creating things of beauty and, when finished, they emerge with works that encourage, amuse and beautify the world around us. … read more
Beautiful Godzilla: Cyclofemme, An Interview with Sarai Snyder
There aren’t a whole lot of female bicycle activists out there, so the moment I found out Sarai Snyder, founder of the website Girl Bike Love (girlbikelove.com) and the worldwide Cyclofemme ride (cyclofemme.com), was due to speak at the Utah Bike Summit on April 25, I knew I had to pick her brain. Snyder’s figured out, like many of us, that bicycles are a tool for female empowerment, but unlike many of us, she’s made herself a leader in the community so that others can benefit from her knowledge and slowly change the world, one lady cyclist at a time. … read more
Mike Brown’s Monthly Dirt: Ogling the Olympics with Faye Gulini
Growing up in the Salt Lake shred scene, running into a pro shred head really isn’t a big deal. I’ve shared beers and blunts with several of them over the years, but they shall remain nameless due to the industry’s tendency toward drug testing these days. I’ve never had the chance to share a beer with a pro who got a taste of the Olympics, until Faye Gulini was kind enough to split a pitcher with me and her BF, Lil Jeff. … read more
Princess Kennedy: The Really Late Show with Princess Kennedy
I’ve decided it’s about time I get my own talk show. To the TV station powers that be: I’m witty, charming and pretty—and classically trained for acting on camera. Hit me up for a full list of credentials. Aside from predicting that I’d be a great television personality, I think I have the deep appreciation for our “pretty great state” (which, in my opinion, is a self-deprecating motto) that comes from my constant travel outside of it. … read more
