...safe bet the herd of deer that wandered onto the grounds of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (J.P.L.) in Pasadena, Calif., last week had no idea what was going on when a team of scientists burst into a courtyard, cheering and high-fiving over the successful landing of the Spirit rover on the surface of Mars. If the deer wander back this week, they could see more of the same, that is if Spirit--which has been operating splendidly but has not yet budged from the safety of its landing platform--at last rolls cautiously down onto the red Martian...
LOVE CALLS It may not be Barry White, but the nonstop bellowing of a male red deer over several days is apparently quite effective at inducing reproductive readiness in females. Other species use more subtle signals to seduce their mates, including a full arsenal of sexy pheromones.

Stein Eriksen Lodge (800-453-1302), located on Deer Valley's slopes, and Hotel Park City (435-940-5000) offer some of the town's most luxurious digs. After skiing, guests at Stein's place (the former Norwegian Olympian still mingles) can visit the day spa or soak in private hot tubs. The woodwork of the year-old Hotel Park City is reminiscent of that found in the old national...
