"the signing and control of traffic and slowing people down needs to be improved a lot," explained penniman.the overall score for all of california resorts was a "c." kirkwood, dodge ridge, and soda springs have some of the highest scores.boreal, china peak, and donner ski have some of the lowest."they're businesses, and they don't want to be held to standards if they don't have to be," said penniman."we really don't frankly even really recognize or acknowledge the legitimacy of the report card," said michael reitzell.he is the head of ski california, which represents nearly every mountain resort in the state. "it's truly just one person's view on snow sports safety," said reitzell.he says the criteria in the report isn't accepted in the industry or

believed to provide viable information about ways to improve safety on the slopes. instead, resorts use a series of best practices, that have been generated over decades of operation, he says."our resorts make safety paramount on a daily basis," said reitzell.snow sports have inherent risks, but safety shouldn't be the sole responsibility of the guest, but the resorts as well, penniman says."they're starting to recognize that they have a shared responsibility in slope safety," said penniman.last week, ski california released a first-of-its-kind mountain safety guide. the pamphlet is filled with best practices, pointers and skier responsibilities. the informational guide can be picked up at almost any ski lodge.drew bollea (vicki) that was drew bollea reporting. just last week-- ski california released a mountain safety guide. it has information on best practices, pointers, and skier responsibilities. the pamphlet can be picked up at almost any ski lodge.

(catherine) congresswoman eshoo rejects the republican argument that their tax billwill kick-start the economy and bring needed tax relief to the middle class... she argues that if you look at some of the deductions that would be eliminated or reduced........it's bad news. she's talking about proposed cuts affecting things like health care expenses and student loans. and in the bay area - where housing prices are so high - the fact that there would be new limitson mortgage interest deductions. eshoo calls it an 'assault on the middle class.' rep. anna eshoo - it's going to raise their taxes. it's going to raise their taxes! so

there's a lot of funny math in this proposal.the mortgage interest deduction has been brought down to a very low level. which affects all californians - not just my congressional district but certainly mine as well. the elimination of the deduction of interest paid on student loans. this is a bad bill. and it almost takes my breath away that they would have structured it the way they have. but make no mistake about it. i have in my congressional district alone 200-thousand constituents that make use of the deductibility of state and local taxes. and they're wiping that out. a key that out.they're wiping taxes. and state and local taxes. and they're wiping that out. a key a key house panel is digging into the republican tax plan. including what eshoo is talking about -- the proposed elimination of a tax break for people paying
