Tate hung back near the drums and played sax during the tune, graciously letting Turner have his moment in the spotlight which included a couple wails that drew genuine praise from the Queensryche frontmaa "Now that's some conviction," Tate said at the song's conclusion. "I like that." Queensryche then closed the show with the single "Empire," which proved a fitting finale. Don Dokken opened Tuesday's show with a acoustic show. He was joined throughout by friend Kelly Keeling, who also played guitar and offered backup vocals n Dokken numto the bers.

I'm not alone in my concerns of construction overkill on the mountain the Ski Area Citizens Coalition recently ranked Northstar 16th out of 18 California ski resorts in its rating of environmental friendliness. The overall "D" grade home 'came mainly because of the large-scal- e construction and road building. You can see all the rankings at www.skiareacitizens.com. But back at Northstar Village, most of my original complaints have disappeared. The village ice skating rink doesn't look like a construction zone anymore. The fire pits, just piles of rocks with pipes sticking out when I first came, are now a "hot spot" according to ski.com, which rated them among the nation's best ski fire pits complete with sofas and e cabanas. Kind of like a beach club, except it's freezing a few feet away from the flames. The shops are full and you can get everything from a sub sandwich to plank salmon at the cafes and restaurants. My wife and daughter would have loved the sushi at the recently opened Mikuni. The changes haven't just been limited to the Village. Northstar keeps adding on and changing things around in its almost 2,500 skiable acres. The biggest change is a remodeled mountain "main street," the Village Run that is a favorite among my family for cruising from the lifts at the middle of the mountain back down to the village (dad watches from above in Continued from Dl there: You can fly into either Tahoe or Sacramento and, rent a car to drive up to Lake Tahoe.

"I just adore Laura Unney," Page says of the veteran character actress, nominated for playing a vulnerable, unhappy daughter of a father who has to be put into a nursing home in "The Savages." "I was almost more excited for her than I was for me. I know it's silly to get that way, and it's not why she's an actor and not why I'm an actor, but to give her that recognition, and no one was really talking about 'The Savages.' And she's soooo good in that movie! So good in everything."
