Ski mogul: Olympic silver medalist Shannon Bahrke’s zeal for her sport has propelled her into skiing’s elite - Cover Story
With over 15 career top-10 finishes for Freestyle Ski Moguls on the World Cup circuit, the 5′4″ natural athlete complements her outdoor activities with regular gym routines. “Depending on the phase of the year we do different things, but most of the time it’s endurance training. We need a lot of endurance to last the whole season,” Bahrke explains. “There’s also a lot of strength training to keep muscles fit while building them–making sure they can take the impact of what we do.” Intervals of 30 seconds on and 30 seconds off are an integral part of Bahrke’s training. “Because a mogul run is only 30 to 40 seconds, you need a lot of energy in a short burst of time,” she says.
Living in Park City with her boyfriend, skier Geoff Lewis, Bahrke says it doesn’t really matter if it’s winter or summer–she is full of energy six days a week, whether it’s for golf and a hike or skiing from nine to four. “I’m gone all day,” she relates.

Tarzan Tickets – A Timeless Tale Of The King Of The Apes
Tarzan is a famous and well-loved character who is known by almost all children and adults. Edgar Rice Burroughs first wrote the story of Tarzan in 1912. Since then the character of Tarzan has been immortalized in radio programs, cartoons for children on television and movies. And since May 10, 2006, there is also a Broadway production which tells the story of Tarzan.
The theatrical presentation of Tarzan has been mainly influenced by the recent Disney film that showed how Tarzan started his life in a jungle. It starts of with Tarzan the infant being saved from a burning ship along with his parents. They are stranded on the coast of Africa, where they begin to live a simple life. Tragically, Sabor, a leopard, kills his parents. Hearing the baby’s cries, an ape whose child was also killed by Sabor, comes and finds Tarzan and eventually takes him to her home and brings him up as her own child.
Being brought up in the company of apes, Tarzan becomes like them and thinks he is an ape like them. He lives a happy and carefree life until one day, a group of English explorers come to the jungle. He is an adult now and he is shocked to realize that he is not an ape after all but a human being like the explorers. Thereafter follows the many emotional upheavals he goes through, coming to terms with his newfound identity and meeting Jane who makes him feel many unknown emotions.
The script of the theatrical adaptation was written by David Henry Hwang and was first staged at the Richard Rodgers Theatre where it enjoyed tremendous success. The music for the play, and incidentally also for the film, was written by Phil Collins, who is a multiple Grammy winner.
