The Academy Awards take place tonight at 6 p.m., and while Plum is trying not to be biased, we have a secret soft spot for Laura Linney, who now calls Telluride home. She has been nominated for Best Actress for her role in "The Savages," which has also been nominated for Best Original Screenplay. Jeb Berrier caught up with her a few weeks ago and interviewed her about her role (see video below).

We may be knee-deep in snow, but we've got sunny Hollywood on the mind. The 80th Academy Awards take place this Sunday, Feb. 24, and the competition is fierce.

Plum was lucky enough to interview Academy Award nominee Laura Linney about her Oscar nomination when she was in Telluride a few weeks ago (see below). She has been nominated for her role in "The Savages," which is also up for best original screenplay. The film plays Thursday at 8:30 p.m. at the Nugget Theatre.

Be sure to vote in our poll to show who you think should win for best actress.

We have skate skis, alpine skis, telemark skis, nordic skis, snowboards, monoboards, and more. Ever wonder how it all began?

A new documentary by Culture Films, "Legacy: The History of Skiing," details how what was merely a means of transportation became our favorite pasttime.

From wooden Norwegian skis to Austria to the Americas, this sport has quite a history. Thankfully we no longer brake with a stick between our legs.
