In the next several weeks, LAist will embark on a series of hikes and present to you an ambitious 8-part photo essay. This is the second one. As always, LAist encourages you to get out and take advantage of and experience the beautiful landscape of Southern California. Most of us forget that we are fortunate to live in such a diverse and ecologically unique locale that offers breathtaking sites at spectacular heights -- hike...

In the next several weeks, LAist will embark on a series of hikes and present to you an ambitious 8-part photo essay (not as majestic as BBC's Planet Earth). This is the first one.

There have been student reports of gay sexual encounters occuring in the Royce Hall bathroom over the past year. Campus police have confirmed that more than one report has been filed on this matter. One student suggests that gay sex is occuring through holes that exist between the stalls and urinals in the bathroom -- kinky? Some are claiming that gay students (or visitors perhaps) turn to bathroom sex as a way to cope...

Let's first get some stuff out of the way. You know what I'm talking about -- that last year stuff. UCLA lost to Florida in the final round of the NCAA tournament last year by 16 points, outplayed up and down the court. But if you've been watching closely, if you even have a sense of what's going on, you know that a different Bruin team will be marching into the Georgia Dome tomorrow afternoon....

UCLA Men's Basketball The UCLA Bruins will play the Cal Golden Bears in the PAC-10 Men's Basketball Tournament. As they file of the bus into the local Staple Center, they will be looking for a win against Cal in order to advance and secure the No.1 seed for the NCAA tournament. 2:30pm PT, no television coverage FSN. Two Men Charged in Cadaver Scandal Two individuals involved in the Willed Body Program were arrested yesterday...

The Bruins should have been worried, walking onto a court of 11,000 hardcore WSU fans, jumping and cheering at the top of their lungs -- "should have", but they weren't. Instead they bounced back from a 23-22 halftime deficit and extinguished any notion that they did not have control. UCLA finished the game 53-45 over WSU, and clinched the Pac-10 title; meaning UCLA could become the top seed entering the NCAA Tournament. Arron Afflalo led...

With all the hype over the upcoming iPhone, we probably shouldn't expect an announcement for the next iPod until MacWorld 2008. However, we can make many good bets about what's in store for the 6G model just by looking at all of the buzz currently traveling through the wire. The 6G iPod will use Flash Storage. This is almost a certainty. Not only are leaps and bounds being made in flash memory technology, but...

UCLA Men's Basketball is NO.2 in the Nation -- According to the AP and Coaches polls. The Bruins came out strong at home this past Saturday against the Stanford Trees Cardinals. The Ohio Buckeyes comfortably sit at No.1 following their victory against Wisconsin on Sunday. Our friends over at USC moved up to No.23 following an impressive season both at home and on the road. The Bruins finish their season undefeated at home and...

This film is best viewed when stoned. No joke here. About twenty minutes into the movie it dawned on me -- this movie is purposefully making fun of itself. Ghost Rider is a serious movie about a hero who doesn't take himself seriously at all. Neither does Nicolas Cage for that matter. There is one scene in particular that spells this out, where Cage laughs uncontrollably for several minutes at an orangutan karate-chopping some...

Although LAist has previously reported that Pan's Labyrinth is dull -- more than once mind you - this reviewer found it necessary to take one more look. I agree with what the other reviews put forward however I would also say that PL, although not originally clever, is a well-told story. The film is set in 1944 Spain, during the time of Francisco Franco. A young girl, Ofelia, is sent with her mother to...
