Seven New Episodic Spots Showcase "The World of Viking"
LOS ANGELES, Feb. 5, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Viking Cruises (www.vikingcruises.com) today announced details behind its new television ad campaign, which debuted on PBS for the Season Four premiere of the Emmy® Award-winning series Downton Abbey. A national corporate sponsor of PBS' celebrated MASTERPIECE series since 2011, Viking's new campaign reflects a slightly different approach to telling the brand story through TV by focusing on specific travel experiences.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20131001/SF89502LOGO)
"Our travelers are explorers – of new destinations, cultures and ideas – just like many supporters and viewers of PBS MASTERPIECE," said Richard Marnell, Senior Vice President of Marketing for Viking Cruises. "We are proud to share the stories of Viking alongside the finest programming on television."
Named "The World of Viking," the campaign includes seven 30-second spots, with each one telling the story of an attribute of Viking's destination-focused cruises – from art and culture to food and Viking's new Longships®. Every week during the new season of Downton Abbey, PBS viewers will be treated to a new Viking "episode." All of the spots can now be viewed in the VIDEOS section of Viking's website; descriptions include:
In addition to its sponsorship of PBS' MASTERPIECE, Viking offers fans of Downton Abbey a real-life opportunity to go behind closed doors at Highclere Castle, the setting of the hit series. Available as a pre- or post- extension on the popular Cities of Light or Paris & the Heart of Normandy cruise itineraries, Viking's Oxford & Highclere Castle Explore More® package is a three-night stay in the rolling hills of England's countryside. Guests enjoy an exclusive insider's look at Highclere Castle, including a special champagne welcome for Viking guests. The tour is co-created with the owners of the magnificent property, the Earl and Countess of Carnarvon, who often make the special effort to meet the Viking guests. The company has also produced a series of in-depth original videos, hosted by Viking Vice President Karine Hagen, which explores the castle and the surrounding area. To view the videos, or to find out more about the Oxford & Highclere extension, visit www.vrc.com/highclere.
Viking is in the midst of massive expansion to meet traveler demand for destination-focused cruises. The company is preparing to launch 14 new Viking Longships in 2014, and its first ocean vessel, the 930-passenger Viking Star is currently under construction and will set sail in early 2015.

A character we can relate to brings fashion to life on film
Fashion documentaries, like fashion itself, are aspirational. They're about getting special access to the people and processes behind a world we often experience only through very intentionally constructed visuals (editorials, clothing displays, staged blogger street style). A good documentary shows us how our fantasy fashion worlds are constructed, and forces us to think about them differently. But as our appetite for more access, more insight, more fashion grows, the quality of the offerings can suffer.
In Matthew Miele's newest documentary, Scatter My Ashes at Bergdorf's, what we are promised is an insider's look at one of the most famous high-end department stores to grace New York's Fifth Avenue. What we get instead is over 100 interviews with designers, celebrities and employees espousing the store's luxury and exclusivity for the better part of an hour and a half. Christian Louboutin calls it the epitome of luxury in a department store. Oscar de la Renta tells us there is no place better than Bergdorf's to help a woman express her femininity. The idea that women can't wait to become lawyers so that they can afford to buy a pair of shoes at Bergdorf's is bandied about. Despite over a hundred years worth of history and personalities to choose from, Scatter My Ashes doesn't do what is essential in storytelling: it doesn't find a focus.
Interesting personalities are passed over for big names. In the fashion world, Linda Fargo, Bergdorf's artistic director and head buyer, is as powerful as Anna Wintour. Fargo's purchasing decisions can make a designer's career and also decide for the public, via the trickle down effect of fashion, what the next big trend will be. With Fargo on board, Miele had the opportunity to show us how retail buying at such a high level shapes all tiers of the industry. Instead, we briefly see Fargo turn down an unimaginative line from Ally Hilfiger and are none the wiser as to what drives her decisions or how the whole process works.
Then there's Betty Halbreich, one of the store's top personal shoppers. A woman well past middle age, Halbreich tells it like it is, not hesitating to let million-dollar clients know when things look terrible. Bergdorf's best personal shoppers, like Betty, draw in around $500,000 (USD) in commissions per year but we only get minutes to hear from her.
Finally, there's David Hoey, Bergdorf's senior director of visual presentation. Hoey spends the better part of the year choosing a theme, commissioning special designer dresses, and corralling a team of artists to create mosaic sea-life and jewel-encrusted polar bears, all to suit his vision for Bergdorf's annual holiday windows. He is the interesting personality who can drive the story and guide the viewer behind the scenes of elite visual merchandising. Unfortunately Miele does not commit to making him the centre of the plotline, splicing his story in amongst designer cameos and depriving us of a character we can relate to.
In the movie, Hoey describes the task of window dressing for the masses: "you have to be very highbrow and silly at the same time," he says, "so everyone will enjoy it." Miele tries to apply the same formula to editing Scatter My Ashes, but with fashion documentaries, we don't want the shallow overview we already have. We want flaws and toil and reality. We want someone whose shoes we could imagine filling.
Here are six fashion documentaries whose subjects let us dare to dream, in a way Scatter My Ashes never quite manages:
Boss Women: Anna Wintour – Magazine Editor
Anna Wintour is notoriously calculated and reserved. She has done more for the VOGUE brand than any editor-in-chief before her, but has shared very little about herself in the process. In this 50-minute long BBC documentary, we hear much more from Anna about her process, and even her family, than we ever see in The September Issue, reminding us that underneath the armour, a living, breathing human (albeit a very shrewd one) does exist.
Diana Vreeland: The Eye Has to Travel
It's hard to tell how many stories are true and how many are made up in this 2011 documentary, but as fashion editor at Harper's Bazaar, editor at VOGUE, and special consultant at the Metropolitain Museum of Art's Costume Institute, Vreeland was an expert at turning fantasy into reality. Through interview clips and narrated excerpts from her biography, The Eye Has to Travel demonstrates how Vreeland personified fashion's artistry and storytelling down to the very last fibre of her being.
Visionaires: Tom Ford
Tom Ford bluffed his way into a design position with Gucci on a Parson's degree in architecture and worked his way up to the top job there, at Yves Saint Laurent, and eventually at his own namesake label. In an intimate piece for the OWN Network, Ford reveals his creative process (it includes taking three or four baths a day), talks about his childhood ("I remember telling my mother 'your hair's wrong, this is wrong, I hate those shoes, you shouldn't wear that, that sofa's ugly'"), and insists that he just has a knack for knowing what the next big trend will be. He is self-confident to the point that it is hard to like him, but he has such clarity of vision and is so accomplished that you can't help but admire him.
Bill Cunningham's New York
In Bill Cunningham's New York, we see how Cunningham's weekly On the Street column is put together, going behind the scenes at The New York Times and with New York elite to dispel the fabricated fairytale world depicted in the final product. The former milliner's child-like enthusiasm is infectious, and his unique photographic vision and unusual personality push the story forward and keep us engaged.
The September Issue
The September Issue is a look at the process behind putting together VOGUE's famed September issue, the largest magazine of the year. Viewers get to see the incredible amount of detail it takes to put together a VOGUE editorial spread and what role a creative director like Grace Coddington plays. She doesn't put on airs or shy from conflict, but remains perfectly likeable, and that makes her a star.
Valentino: The Last Emperor
We can't help but be drawn into Valentino: The Last Emperor with its extravagance (palaces and yachts and thousands of hand-sewn sequins) and simplicity (a sketch of a gown drawn with a mere flick of the wrist). "This was the best thing for me to make dresses, I am a disaster in everything else," he tells us. It seems unlikely. Watching him deftly maneuver his last collection is both fascinating and bittersweet and even though we may never imagine ourselves living his life, this film serves as a good reminder to value and nurture our talents, however limited we may believe them to be.

When Derek Dooley announced an indefinite suspension for oft-troubled wideout Da'Rick — or should it be Da'Wreck? — Rogers last week, he said that he did not expect the star to return. It appears he was right on that front as multiple reports now have the junior set to transfer to Tennessee Tech of the FCS level.
Rogers would have two years of eligibility remaining, but given his history, it's likely he'll head to the NFL after this season. Assuming he makes it through the season. Rogers led the SEC in catches last year (67) and accounted for 1,040 receiving yards. He also became the dominant personality in the Volunteer locker room… a fact that didn't sit well with several former teammates.
If he tried to dominate the locker room in Knoxville, Tennessee, just what might he try to do in Cookeville, Tennessee?
Update: Transfer confirmed by Tennessee Tech.

Product Description
Blue Pasta (GG138) is conceptual and sensuous in the same moment. A blue-tinted photographic image of elbow macaroni, luminescent as a silver gelatine print, extends the length of the strap. The image is both amusing and gorgeous, due to the shine of specular highlights and the mysterious banks of darkness between the macaroni. The dial, white with black script, directs the viewer to follow the steps of a recipe for blue-dyed pasta, and the hands are a knife, fork and spoon. An aesthetically convincing, ironic and thought-provoking piece, Miralda's Blue Pasta is a sophisticated and witty contribution to the story of Swatch and Art.
Artist Biography
Antoni Miralda
Spanish artist Antoni Miralda is known for his use of organic materials and objects. Often drawing from local culinary traditions, Miralda calls his creations "food sculptures." Linked with Paris's Catalonian Group, he is interested in experience as the basis for art, rather than form. Most of his works are more aptly considered actions rather than objects. His pieces are performances in which community and audience participation play a key role. Miralda's projects have been presented in contexts both artistic, such as the Venice Biennale, and culinary.

NEWSPAPERS … One of my dad's living-alone rituals, before he took sick and had to be hospitalized, was reading the morning paper. And for that he subscribed to the San Francisco Chronicle – a legendary rag that I grew up on. But it's not the same paper these days, although the font and flag might make you think so. No longer locally and independently owned by the Theriots, the Hearst family bought it and sold off the competing Examiner, which the Hearst had owned for years.

Frequently Asked Questions for Prospective Students
- What can I do with a Psychology major or minor?
- What is the makeup of your faculty?
- Can I double major with Psychology?
- How many majors and minors are in the Psychology program?
- What can I do with a bachelors in Psychology if I don't want to continue on with my master's or doctorate?

What can I do with a Psychology major or minor?
Career opportunities for psychology majors and minors are diverse. Recent CSB and SJU graduates have found jobs directly related to their study of psychology as social workers, family counselors, employment counselors for large companies, crisis line therapists, mental health associates for hospitals, teachers, chemical abuse tutors and registered nurses.
Other CSB and SJU psychology graduates have established themselves in careers which appear to be unrelated to the psychology major but actually draw on skills they acquired through their undergraduate study. These positions include computer analyst, home finance administrator, manager of a commercial bank, tax auditor for the Internal Revenue Service, sales representative for Proctor and Gamble, president of a business college, assistant director of admissions at an Eastern university and an actuary.
Each year a substantial number of CSB and SJU graduates choose to continue their psychology training in graduate school. Others find psychology to be a useful background for professional study of law, medicine, or business administration.
The College of St. Benedict and St. Johns University provides many opportunities for students to learn what is available to them after their experience here. The school as a whole, along with the Psychology department, host many panels and discussions about how to make your major work for you and lead you to where you want to be. Always stay tuned to upcoming events on campus that include speakers, panels, visiting graduate schools, and workshops.
For more information on what a psychology major or minor involves and possible career options visit our Student Resources page. Career Services also offers useful information and links for psychology students.
What is the makeup of your faculty?
Our faculty consists of twelve full-time professors and three adjunct professors. These professors are very active with our students. They provide guidance as well as many opportunities for student research. The faculty here in the Psychology Department at CSB and SJU come from a variety of interests. A student here will have no problems finding direction or opportunity for research in any area of interest from our faculty. To find out more information about our professors please visit our faculty page.
Can I double major with Psychology?
Yes! Psychology students frequently double major. Psychology majors have double majored in Biology, Communications, Management, Political Science, Theatre and Theology. You can make a double major or minor work for you in almost any concentration.
How many majors and minors are in the Psychology program?
As of Spring 2011, there are 239 students at the College of Saint Benedict enrolled in the Psychology major, making us the second largest major on campus! There were 41 CSB students who graduated with a Psychology minor, which is the also the second biggest minor at the College of St. Benedict.
Of Saint John's University students, 107 are Psychology majors. 25 SJU students graduated with a Psychology minor, which is also the second biggest minor at St. John's University.
Both campuses combined make us the third largest major overall with 346 Psychology majors. 66 CSB/SJU students graduated with Psychology minors, making Psychology the second biggest minor among CSB/SJU students.
What can I do with a four-year degree in psychology if I don't want to continue on with my master's and doctorate?
Although a bachelor's degree in psychology will not prepare you to become a professional psychologist, an undergraduate major can mean that a student graduates with both a strong liberal arts education and adequate preparation for entry-level employment in one of many career paths. The undergraduate years are an excellent time for exploring careers through courses, conversations with people who have careers that interest you, internships and part-time jobs.
The following are some careers graduates with bachelor's degrees in psychology have entered: administration and management, business and industry, casework, child care, employment interviewing, gerontology, health services, marketing and public relations, research or laboratory assisting, human resources, and many more career fields are open to those who major in psychology. For more information about what you can do with either a bachelor's degree, a masters, or a doctorate please visit our Student Resources.
What research opportunities are available to students?
There are many opportunities for research here at CSB/SJU. Both faculty and students are very involved in research all year long. Many students choose to work along side a faculty member in their areas of research while others choose to do an independent project. CSB and SJU are also equipped with the "rat lab," a place for students to observe or partake in research involving rats. The best way to learn about research here is to talk to a Professor, or look at the research that has occurred with past students by visiting the Student Research page.

"It's thousands of dollars and we could be doing something else with it concerning the city," said Councilman Ben Keller. "If it benefits the city more, I'd rather stay here."
Municipal leaders throughout the state have the opportunity to attend annual training and meeting sessions in Montgomery during May. The meetings, organized by the Alabama League of Municipalities, would cost Piedmont roughly $7,000 in travel and lodging expenses if council members attend.
Councilman Bill Baker said at a work session Tuesday that Piedmont's finances are "not in the best shape right now." He said he wouldn't attend the meetings at the city's expense this year.
"Right now I would like to see a little bit more money in hand and I think it will be there but it's not there right now," Baker said, adding that there is no cause for alarm.
Asked later for details, Baker said in late fall and early winter months the city's revenue comes in slowly and that the city is in a financial "hole" right now.
Officials did not provide figures to illustrate the current state of the city's finances. Councilman Frank Cobb said more information will be revealed following the release of an annual audit, which is required by law and has not yet been turned over to city officials.
While the majority of council members said at the work session that they do not believe the city should pay for council members to go, one city leader disagreed. Councilman Frank Cobb said he thinks that paying for attendance would be worth the investment.
Cobb said the Montgomery meeting can be used as a business recruitment tool, adding that several representatives from industrial companies also attend the sessions. He also said council members will have the chance to exchange ideas with others who govern municipalities of a comparable size, if they attend the annual training meetings.
"That league meeting, to me, is one of the most important meetings we go to." Cobb said. "I've seen that meeting be very useful. It's a great tool."
Keller, Baker, Kenny Kelley and Terry Kiser all said they were not in favor of attending the meeting, while Brenda Spears said she wants to hear from voters before deciding whether she wants the city to pay for the trip.
Council members would still be able to attend the meetings if the city doesn't pay for their expenses, the city leaders said.
The expense was approved with the passage of the budget at a recent meeting, but could be repealed by a vote at the next meeting. The council could vote on the matter at the next council meeting, said Piedmont City Clerk Michelle Franklin.
At a regular meeting following the work session, council members voted on two routine matters: to approve the written record from a previous meeting and to approve monthly bill payments.

Tucker is also the author of several books in the Black Mesa sports history / trivia series subtitled The Ultimate Test of True Fandom, including: Atlanta Braves IQ, New York Yankees IQ, Major League Baseball IQ, Cincinnati Reds IQ, and Tampa Bay Rays IQ (with MLB pitcher Andy Sonnanstine).
In total he has authored or contributed to more than two-dozen baseball books.
In addition to his books, Tucker is a cowriter for the screenplays "Shedding Baggage" and "The Home Stretch."
His current project (and most important to date) is working with former professional baseball player Tony Stevens on his memoir. Stevens gave up a baseball career to join the Marines after 9/11. A Kindle Single telling part of Stevens' story is on its way, with the full book expected later this year.

IN THE AFTERMATH of the December 26 tsunamis in South Asia, I read an article on Israel121c.org about how Israeli doctors, who were among the first on the scene in Sri Lanka, have the ideal training for dealing with a disaster of such proportions. As Professor Avi Rivkind, head of both the Department of Surgery and Trauma Unit at Hadassah University Hospital, Ein Karem, Jerusalem, is quoted as saying, "We will try to use our broad experience in dealing with terror attacks and rescuing masses to help in this disaster as well."
This makes sense. Whether it's a suicide bomber or earthquake-induced killer waves, the resulting medical challenges are similar. One would hope that the Israeli docs' terrorism training also will stand them in good stead as they move from treating broken bones to the expected outbreaks of malaria and other diseases. While the treatment for intestinal infections and anthrax may be different, training in the mechanics of dealing with massive outbreaks — locating vaccines and medicines, triage, setting up places to care for patients under less-than-ideal circumstances, coordinating with government officials, etc. — are certainly similar.
After 9/11, I hoped the U.S. would follow Israel's lead and become more proactive in our emergency preparedness. So it was with dismay that I read a report from Trust for America's Health, which studied the state of preparedness for a bioterror attack in the United States — and found that just six states are adequately prepared to distribute vaccines and antidotes in the event of an attack.
Fortunately, CME providers are doing a better job preparing our docs than our politicians have done in preparing our infrastructure. According to a recent article in The Lancet, programs like the ones co-authors Bruce W. Clements, MPH, associate director of the Institute for Bio-Security at Saint Louis (Mo.) University School of Public Health, and R. Gregory Evans, PhD, MPH, director of the Institute, have developed for the CDC for use by state and local health departments are critical. The exercises are designed to help physicians see how things may unfold in an atypical outbreak of smallpox.
"In a bioterrorism incident, physicians will have to interface with the FBI and other government agencies that they've never had to speak with before," Clements said in a press release. "This type of communication doesn't come naturally. It's learned."
The Israeli doctors have, unfortunately, had a need to develop this expertise for quite some time. Now, we're beginning to catch up. Thank you, dear readers, for your work in preparing our docs to handle the medical fallout, from tsunamis to terrorist attacks.

"Normal" is to hang the pump on a pitless adapter.
Is this normal?
Have a well at a rental property. Works great and water clear.
Has a submersible pump. But concrete cover does not sit tight because it rest on a ½ pipe.
So a ½ gap all around. Is this normal?
If you remove the cover there is about 30 of ½ galvanized pipe laying across the opening.
This seems to be used to hold the pump suspended in the center of the well. Then a cable runs down to the pump.
Has 1 ¼ of the black poloy pipe that runs down to the pump.
I am guessing they just did not want to have only the pipe holding the pump. Pipe goes thru the wall of the well about 24 down from the top of the well casing. Has a plastic/poloy elbow, which I guess may otherwise break from the weight of the pump.
What Is normal?
"Normal" is to hang the pump on a pitless adapter.
around here that is quite common. If you want to use a pitlless adapter i guess it would work but you would have to have a few feet of steel pipe sticking out of the culvert to keep the pump from pulling the pitless down. In a cement culvert i would not reccomend hanging the pump close to the culvert wall as it sometimes tends to pull in silt and sand. I would also not recommend to bury steel pipe. What i usually do is to take a piece of copper pipe and flatten out the ends to set on top of the casing. If you want to get fancy, drill two holes in the concrete opposite of eachother and stick some steel pipe into that.
1/2" gap? Just enough for all kinds of critters to find their way into the water supply. Figure out a way to seal that well properly, chlorinate the complete system and then test for bacteria.

Man pleads guilty to robbing South Hills homes and vehicles
CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- A man who robbed numerous homes and vehicles in South Hills last year pleaded guilty in court Wednesday.
Thomas Burton Lloyd, 24, entered a Kennedy-Frazier plea to a felony charge of burglary and two misdemeanors of breaking and entering a vehicle. Several other charges against him were dismissed in exchange for that plea.
In a Kennedy-Frazier plea, a defendant typically doesn't admit guilt but concedes that the evidence against him is enough to convict.
Assistant Prosecutor Ken Starcher said Lloyd was arrested for the thefts on Longridge Road last February. Since then, he has been arrested for a rash of burglaries in Jackson County and also picked up for battery and malicious wounding in Kanawha County.
He attempted to plead guilty in October, but withdrew his plea when prosecutors didn't agree to combine his sentence with the one in Jackson County. Starcher said he now will recommend that he serve his sentences concurrently, but the judge isn't bound by that.
He failed to appear for a hearing in December, and was arrested a week later and placed in custody. On Friday, Lloyd was sentenced to ten months in jail for his crimes in Jackson County.
Kanawha Circuit Judge Carrie Webster accepted Lloyd's plea Wednesday. He faces a possible 14 months to 16 years in prison when she sentences him next month.
John Sullivan, his court-appointed defense attorney, however said Lloyd has made application to Kanawha County's drug court program. If accepted, and he completes the program successfully, his charges could be dismissed.
Lloyd was arrested for thefts and several Longridge Road homes, including that of George Warner, father of former United States Attorney Kasey Warner.
Many of the items taken -- GPS, computers and electronics -- were discovered by police in his bedroom where Lloyd had been living with his grandmother, also on Longridge Road. Contact writer Cheryl Caswell at firstname.lastname@example.com or 304-348-4832.

It was good but really needs more spice. I don't really care for super spicy food but this was really bland. I will make it again but I'm going to try something simple like taco seasoning to add more kick.
Would make again but increase the spice! Added spanish rice, increased the cumin & chili powder and used some jalepeno and still thought it could be a little spicier! Other than that pretty good!

Minus the burrito from this recipe and it makes an excellent side dish! Easy and delicious! I make a double batch and take it cold for lunch.
Really good! Made with whole wheat tortillas and used light sour cream. Yummy!

17277 Racho Rd, Brownstown, MI | Directions 4819242.180603 -83.247592
My sister and her husband bought a $13,000 dollar camper from this place. Her husband died very suddenly and unexpectedly of a heart attack 3 weeks later. The camper had never been used. They told her there was nothing they could do except offer her $5500 to take it back. She complained on their facebook page and someone commented "You should be angry at God, not us." Then they deleted the comment and blocked her from the page. This has been a very difficult time for her and her family and these people showed no empathy or compassion of any kind and actually seemed more annoyed than anything. Shame on this business and anyone who works for them.
Wow I cannot believe that people do business this way! We were told they needed a credit card number to even negotiate a price. After reading many negative reviews we decided that we did not feel comfortable making such a large purchase from a company with very questionable integrity. We called to let them know that we were not going thru with the purchase (keep in mind that we had not signed any contracts and the financing was not completed) they proceeded to charge TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS on our credit card two days AFTER we told them we would not be purchasing the motor home. Upon calling them to discuss this matter they refused to reverse the charge so now we are having to go thru American Express to get the charge reversed. They are CROOKS! Whatever you do DO NOT give them your credit card number!!
Do NOT give General RV a deposit! Avoid buying from them. – On 4/2/12 we were strong armed into leaving a deposit (What you are thinking of buying today, someone thought about buying yesterday.) According to the Sales Manager Dave- a credit card refund would be refunded same day if we changed our minds. Lo and behold it has been FIVE days since we requested our money back and - yup you guessed- no refund as of yet. We called on 4/5 to ask for a refund- Dave took our credit card info and hung up without even saying good bye (GREAT professionalism shown.) I called on the 7th because it had not yet been processed and was informed by Anna the finance person that she did not see any paperwork re:refund, but assured me she would run it through that day. Today is the 9th and I cannot get anyone to accept my calls.
I am not concerned too much because I know my credit card company will handle it, but it really sealed my opinion that the people I dealt with at Brownstown are not competent.
Some of the reasons we opted out of buying were: no one could agree exactly what tongue weight of camper was- per website 324, per Dave-600 but we HAD to have a $450 weight distribution hitch (for 800 pounds), or we could not haul it home. We were concerned, because although employees there kept vomiting the words "we are experts" no-one could justify where numbers weer pulled from, or help us determine our trucks tongue weight- we spent HOURS researching the info and while searching we discovered that TOO large of a hitch could bend the camper trailer.
Our sales person- Craig Blizzard- who admittedly is new also told my hubby that he went in on his day off- to personally give the go ahead to prep for us, yet my hubby spoke with Dave at 12:30 to give go ahead, Dave tried to tell me it was HIM who initiated the prep go ahead.
Simple little discrepancies that do make one wonder "what else are they lying to me about??"
By the way, if you do not heed my warning and steer clear of Brownstown General RV, at least let me give you a tip from this "noobie trailer pulling girl.."
If you have a newer truck, the tongue weight and maximum towing capacity will be printed RIGHT ON the hitch of your truck, do NOT let General RV make you waste hours out of your day trying to locate the information, that they- the experts- apparently have no desire to share with you.
My question to them was "ok, so you say I need 800 pound distribution hitch, you wont hook camper to it if it is not there, how do you know I am not lying about it?" THEN I was told "it is printed on your hitch" UGHHHH I swear they called and asked us the max tongue weight and did NOT give us that tip then..
STEER CLEAR!!! please
I would not have even given them one star, but this review is making me... they are not worthy of my dog peeing on their lot, let alone one star!
Didn't want this RV that badly. – Recently purchased a used toy hauler trailer from the Brownstown General Rv. Everything was fine until we sat down in the finance office. We were directed to this location from another General RV location to see this specific trailer. We are out-of-state purchasers. You would think that a company that advertises on the internet would have this process down to an art. The business manager screwed the paperwork up so badly that I had to point out a several thousand dollar error in my favor .. that was my first mistake. I should have kept my mouth shut. The deal went down hill from there. In the end, I had to come up with a larger downpayment and she hid a chunk of the difference in the sales taxes paid (I know ... I should have had my accountant and my own calculator with me). So I go to get the trailer titled here and am informed that I owe another $500 in sales taxes. This was a nightmare and I would strongly suggest that if you are purchasing an rv from General RV in Brownstown, go in with your own financing because this lady is clueless and the deal became about her tring to keep her job, not about fairness or honesty in lending. My next call is to the bank. I am not a satisfied customer.
FRIENDLY STAFF AND NEW VEHICLES – I read the negative review for the rentals for general rv and was a bit skeptical and decided to look around to see what my other options were. After viewing other companies vehicles we realized we were better off taking our chances with general rv since they offered new vehicles and the other places had older motorhomes. We are happy to say our experience was wonderful. We had a brand new vehicle and it even had the plastic still on the bed. Much better than what we seen everywhere else. The staff was very helpful and were willing to sit through my husbands hundreds of questions. we were new to the whole rv thing they took a lot of time to go over how to operate everything. I felt we were there for a long time but I guess it was my husband that kept asking questions. I am sure the second time around will be much faster.
During the trip my grandson somehow broke a blind and we were a bit upset but when we explained everything the staff assured us that it wasnt a big deal. We found out a day later that they were able to get it replaced under warranty and it wouldn't cost us anything. As they say there are always two sides to every story and our experience makes us believe there may be more to the negative review. Its unfortunate you only hear the negative reviews and no one ever takes the time to write a good one. We had a great experience and are planning another vacation for this summer and will be using general rv again.
GENERAL RV SELLS RVs THAT ARE UNSAFE FOR THE ROAD – BOUGHT A USED RV AND HAVE NOT EVEN PUT 3,000 MILES ON IT SINCE I BOUGHT IT LESS THAN 6 MONTHS AGO... DROVE IT TO FLORIDA FOR VACATION WITH MY WIFE, OUR 10MONTH OLD, MY FRIEND , HIS WIFE, AND THIER 2 KIDS UNDER THE AGE OF 5 ... WE GET THERE FINE .. PROBLEM IS WE WERE ALL TRAVELING TO DISNEY AND ALL THE SUDDEN THERE WAS NO BRAKE PRESSUE... CALLED GENERAL THEY SUGGESTED A REPAIR SHOP IN FLORIDA, WE TOOK IT THERE THE REPAIR SHOP TELLS US THAT THE CALIPERS, BRAKE LINES, ROTORS, AND PADS ALL ARE IN HORRIBLE AND UNSAFE CONDITION.. WE THEN CALLED GENERAL RV BACK AND THEY TOLD US " THE VEHICLE WAS SOLD AS IS AND THEY DO NOT DO ANY KIND OF SAFETY INSPECTIONS ON THE BRAKE SYSTEM" I FIND THIS VERY DISTURBING AS 1. ALMOST ALL IF NOT ALL DEALERSHIPS PERFORM BRAKE INSPECTIONS AS IT IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE 2. THEY DO NOT CARE IF THEY SELL YOU AN UNSAFE CAR THAT COULD POSSIBLY KILL YOU AND OR YOUR FAMILY AS IF I DID NOT KNOW HOW TO DOWNSHIFT TO SLOW DOWN THE RV WHO KNOWS WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPEND ... I WARN ANYONE NOT TO BUY FROM THEM AS THEY ARE OK WITH THE FACT THAT THEY MIGHT BE SELLING YOU UNSAFE JUNK AND ALSO BECAUSE THEY HAD NO CONCERN AND THEY WERE UNWILLING TO HELP OR FIX THIS ISSUE AS WE WERE STUCK IN FLORIDA
BEWARE – they ask for a deposit of &300.00,now they won't give deposit back. won't even give call us back.
DO NOT RENT FROM THE BROWNSTOWN LOCATION! – I would highly advise not working with General RV in Brownstown, Mi for RV rentals. I recently rented an RV for a weekend with a group and returned it, leaving it locked in their parking lot overnight. During the trip, we did have damage to the bathroom door as a small hole was placed in it when it was opened and met the heel of someone lying on the back bed. We accepted responsiblity for this and I left a letter on the front seat explaining this.
I was treated a week later to a letter in the mail informing me of $1000.07 in damages. Convenient, considering I had fronted a security deposit of $1000. They said there was a "hole in the entry door" and, thinking this was a mistake, I emailed the rental manager at the Brownstown location. They provided me with a blurry picture that was of what appeared to be a dent of about 1 cm in diameter on the entry door. ..........mabye ours, maybe not. This was not there when I left it, guaranteed. However, the most ridiculous part is they quoted us over $500 to fix this.....................and said the quote was "verbal". I simply emailed her back and asked for documentation on this quote. She returned with a sketchy quote dated the day after I requested it that included 5.5 hours of labor at $89/hour..........and $75 in parts..........to fix a 1cm dent. She then stated, "I didn't have right to these documents.......this was internal information; but she was doing me a "FAVOR" by sending them to me." I dont', know...............if I just spent $1000 I think I am entitled to a few documents.
In addition, her initial quote to me for the $500 (most of which was the labor cost)..............was taxed, adding another $30. Pretty sure that is illegal.
Overall, VERY POOR PROFESSIONALISM from both the rental manager and the Brownston manager. They basically made up numbers to come up with the full security deposit.

Plains Game Rifle Selection
I have read lots and lots and lots of articles, opinion pieces and recommendations about the lightweight end of a two (2) gun selection for plains game and now I am ready , at last, for the opinion(s) of my brethren here.
I have the selection whittled down to two.
So then, I am heading out for plains game, what do I team up with the .375 Holland,
30.06 or a .300 Win Mag and why.
All input, advise and recommendation is sincerely appreciated.

In my readings i would take the 300 Win Mag (in my case i would take my 300 Weatherby Mag)....with 180 gr bullets....it would be a great match up to your 375 H & H...James Grage - New Mexico

Well I own a .300 WM, so I'm partial to it and think it in certain circumstances such as longer shots has an advantage over the .30-06. But honestly I think either choice for the pairing will do. If you think you're headed into a spot where longer shots may be necessary, then go with the magnum.U.S. Contact for HartzView Safaris

Hi second wind.
Plains game. Why do you need 2 different calibers ? 30.06, 300WM or HH375 are all enough power, if you use correct ammo. I suggest you bring the rifle that you feel most comfortable with, and have fun.
IF, you anyway, need to bring 2 rifles, I suggest 30.06 and HH375. Why ? HH375 for little bigger plainsgame, like Eland, Giraffe.... rest of plainsgames.. 30.06.
Since many years hunting around the world, I have only used my SAKO TRG-S, HH375 for all kinds of animals, only changed ammo, for different animals, however, since a few years back, I dont even has to think about change ammo for different animals, I just use one type of bullet for all kind of animals, anywhere in the world... Impala RN bullet. ( See webpage impalabullets.at )
I wish you a fantastic hunting adventure.

Second Wind,
all advice and suggestions so far are very valid imo.
As you have allready decided on a .375 for your heavy rifle, (excellent) and wanting to add / deciding on the 'lighweight' end for your second choice, personally i will ask myself only 2 questions - which your outfitter / landowner / PH guide where you plan to hunt PLAINSGAME will (must!) be able to inform you on beforehand:
* What distances on average will i hunt at? If the animals are not that wild and you are going to hunt at average distances of 100 - 200 meters (app 110 - 220 yds) then i will have no hesitation in taking the 30-06 with 180 gr ammo. Should your distances exceed 220 yds - i will favor the 300 WM simply because it shoots flatter than the 30-06 at extended distances.
* What animals do i plan to hunt? Will you be hunting primarilly small to medium size plains game (Springbuck / Blesbuck / Hartebees / Wildebees / Oryx, etc) then the 30-06 will be my choice. However...should you be going for larger antelope (Eland / Giraffe) i will favor the 300 WM at longer distances and stick to the .375 at closer work.
Above is usually the determining factors for me to decide on what cal i will be hunting with. Also very important / just as important - is whether you know your rifles. (trajectory / capability) and whether you are well practised and confident with either cal on the hunt.

FHM3006 bring up a valid point...however if you have read some great post on AH by forum members returning from there safari some i and i do say some were presented with a longer shot than they were planning on and you know what they made the shot with there rifle with shots in excess of 300 yards...that is one of the reasons that i picked the 300Win Mag over the 30-06.
Now if you have the chance to look at outfitters and PH web locations and look at caliber recommended you will See 30 caliber or greater with good bullet selection. Quite a few are talking the 300 Win Mag or 338 Win Mag with the emphasis on the larger of the two.
You have larger covered with your 375 H & H and while it is all the rifle you need i would have suggested a 260 or 270 grain bullet and just take the one rifle...However in your question you were opting to take two rifles...you have not said what plains game you are going after and like michaelhh375 so eloquently indicated the 375 H & H is all you really need. If you are after Giraffe i would stay with the 270 gr bullet and stay with one bullet...and if sighted for 200 yards you would be covered out to 300 yards if you knew your bullet arc drop.James Grage - New Mexico

I would get a 300 Win Mag and 180 grain bullets. It's superior ballistically to the 30-06, bullets are widely available....and it a very good for a long range shots.

unless you expect to take a shot longer than 250 yds I would stick with the 30-06 and 180 gr bullets. I have used both the 30-06 and the 300 WM on plainsgame in the Okavango Delta, IMHO at ranges less than 300 yds the only difference between the 30-06 and the 300 WM is noise and recoil.

As TerryR stated both the 30-06 and the 300WM will do I used the 300WM on the East Cape but was shooting at Ranges of up to 325 yards the 30-06 will do the same but the 300 Win Mag has a little flater Trajectory and has enough nock down power to take the biggest Eland and will still work good on the smallest of game.

I'd probably just take the rifle I shoot better with and like the most because both are good choices. Otherwise, all things being equal, I like the .300WM.

I'd leave the 375 at home.
The 300WM with good bullets will do all you ask of it and more on plains game. Just practice, practice and practice some more on shooting off sticks. Bullet placement wins hands down over cartridge choice IMO.Member of the Australian Knifemakers Guild

I took two rifles with me for my central Namibia safari this past May; 30.06 and a .300 Weatherby. I took 12 animals in 10 days and all were taken with the .300 Weatherby even though I intended on taking several animals with the 30.06. Why? Well as the say in Africa, you never know what's going to walk out and I wanted a rifle to take the largest animals on the menu easily. I took animals from 60-378 yards so the .300 B was an asset.
Next time, I'll most likely take only one rifle with me for plains game and it will be one that can take the largest animal on the menu considering range etc. If I need another rifle due to failure, I'll use a camp rifle.
Good luck with your decision. My recommendation is to take the .300 WinMag.

On my four safaris, I have used a 338WM for all plains game.
It s easier to travel with one gun.

I am also a huge fan of the 338WM for plains game. It will handle a springbok at 300 or an eland at 30. That said, I suspect more 300WM are camp guns than any other caliber in PG (and leopard) country."We sleep peaceably in our beds because rough men stand ready in the

All my 'gotta have one' rifles are gathering dust.I do all my hunting with my .375,it's all I need.From Duiker to Eland,hogs and cats.With a 250gr bullet,I have a maximum point blank range of around 300 meters and thats further than I like to shoot,anyway.On the small buck I use the 286gr solid which gives a neat through and through with no other damage.Take your .375,get to know her real personal like,develop a pet load in 235,250 260 or 270gr and,coupled with factory DG ammo,you won't need any other rifle for any PG or DG on earth.
But then,to each his own.Good luck with your choice,and happy hunting..!

from the host:
Gentlemen, I want to thank everyone for the input, It has been invaluable in helping me make a decision in this critical matter but after much feedback, both public and private and another exhaustive study of ballistics tables and several trips to the range, I think:
First, from a practical standpoint we have left the days when we pack up the wife, the mistress, the oldest male child, all the servants and attendants, 15 trunks and 10 rifles and take the slow boat to Mombassa for a month of shooting and safari. Nowadays, we pack like Israeli paratroopers, conscious of every ounce, we offer ourselves up to the customs and immigration officers of any number of countries whose entire economies some of us could put on our charge cards.
So, all this in mind, it comes to this:
the .375 Holland for plains game. I looked up 'deader" in Webster's and there really isn't such a word so the smaller end of this group is just going to have to deal and not take it too personally. With something like one of the 260 gr super-premium bullets I think I'll be fine.
the .416 Rigby. A proven performer in the DG category. On paper hits as hard as the .470 NE,
and out to about 250 yds is flat enough to manage a PG effort.
I own them both, a Winchester and a CZ (Brno), shoot both regularly and feel very comfortable with either.
So, with the help of all that have contributed I have cut the traveling arsenal in1/2 and can pack these two guns on a trip to Africa and be adequately armed to face anything.
Now please, punch holes in my comfortably held position. The experience, recomendation and critique of this group is fantastic and much appreciated, I just want to make sure I have this covered correctly.
Many Thanks

I don't think there's a need to punch holes in your selection. I do find it interesting that you chose the 416 Rigby to pair with the .375 and bailed on both the 30-06 and .300WM. Please post your report when you get back!U.S. Contact for HartzView Safaris

You are correct. 270 gr RN bullets, result of these IMPALA bullets are amazing. I have convinced a lot of friends to try IMPALA for what ever caliber they have, from 222-458 LOTT, not one has changed back to "old" ammo !
As said before, i have only used my Sako TRG S HH375 for all kinds of hunting and all kinds of animals. However, I recently bought a BRNO Safari 416 Rigby, why ? couldn't resist the story of this gun ! Got some IMPALA 350 gr RN ammo, booked second Moz adventure, for this year, and test of 416R will be done for 18-21 days in August.

Phil, I probably wasn't as clear as I should have been. For PG I am just going to take the .375 in the event of a breakdown I will just use one of th PH's camp rifle. On a hunt that includes Buf or something larger and includes PG ( like say Buf and sable or Buf and Roan) I will pack them both.
My working theory is to carry a rifle large enough to address the largest game I might encounter on any given outing.

The campaign manager for U.S. Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., recently was quoted as saying the following: "The senator works incredibly hard for the people of Minnesota and she does everything she can to put the people of our state first. She works to find common ground with people of both parties."
We believe that is on target.
Klobuchar is also personable, intelligent and knowledgeable on the issues. She is incredibly easy to like. She also may become one of the key players in the U.S. Senate.
Regardless of who is elected president, the United States faces a fiscal calamity if it does not do something about its annual budget deficits and the mounting federal debt. There are several solutions on the table, including a plan to raise taxes on the wealthy to help close the budget gap. Klobuchar supports that plan. But we know she knows that raising taxes on the wealthy does not solve the deficit problem. There simply isn't enough money involved. A Republican president and Republicans in Congress would suggest tax reform, lowering rates, broadening the base and spurring growth for more revenue. In the Senate, getting such a plan approved will require the support of centrist Democrats. It is our hope and belief that this is where Klobuchar could help. Given the magnitude of the problem, we simply cannot believe Klobuchar would turn her back on a bipartisan solution. In fact, we believe she could help shape one.
Critics say Klobuchar has worked mainly in the background in the Senate, failing to make a mark. But she has done good work on consumer issues Minnesotans care about. If she hasn't been as visible as some of her colleagues, we believe she deserves a second term in which to blossom.

"This invitation was just perfect for my daughter's 2nd birthday party! I liked that it had a little sparkle (note the glitter is a graphic not actual glitter but I knew that ahead of time) but it wasn't overly princess-y or flashy. I customized quite a bit of the text with the different fonts, using a script for her name which I think turned out really cute. The only thing I would recommend is making the "kindly respond" quite a bit bigger--it seems a little small to me on the invite and I even enlarged it some. Shipping was super fast and came almost 5 days early! This is my third purchase from tinyprints and I'll definitely be coming back."
"When i received these invitations in the mail, my daughter got so excited. She wanted everything pink for her b-day and the invitations did not disappoint her. Upon reviewing the invitations, my daughter gave me the biggest smile and said, "mom I am so excited." The invitations made her feel just like a princess and she was so proud to give them to all her friends. The invitations are very elegant and lady-like."
"We are hosting a birthday party for my 2 year old. The theme is bubbles, so this is the most beautiful "bubbly" invitation I found. It looks exactly like it did on my computer. I'm extremely happy with this creation by Tiny Prints!"
"The invitations are a great quality cardstock. The cards arrived exactly as ordered and earlier than expected. Perfect for my son's sports-themed birthday party."
"I chose this invitation for my daughter's first birthday and was very pleased with the quality of the invitation. I ordered it on a Wednesday and it was delivered by Friday, long before the estimated arrival time. Once I received it, I realized I would have to changed the date and time of the party! When I called Tiny Prints to re-order the invitation, the customer service rep said I could send the old invitation back for a full refund, and she would ship the new invitation out in a few days. It arrived in 4 days! This was my first experience with Tiny Prints, and I was very pleased with both the product and excellent customer service!
