IDAHO HUNTING DOGS - Idaho German Shorthaired Pointer BreedersWant to list your puppies for sale? Post a classified today!
About IDAHO HUNTING DOGS At Idaho Hunting Dogs, our goal is to breed very conformationally correct GSP's that are also very birdy, and with loving personalities. Pups have TONS of natural instinct. All puppies are vet checked, current on shots by a licensed veterinarian, tails, dewclaws & worming done and pre-registered with AKC. Written Guarantee. Shipping available weather permitting. All of our dogs have had their hips certified by OFA and eyes certified by CERF. We take great pride in producing healthy happy puppies. All of our puppies are born in the house and raised in the house to get them used to a home's general sights, sounds and chaos plus of course, lots of hugs and kisses. They are handled from the time they are born until they go to their new owners at 8 weeks. They are exposed to lots of different sounds, textures, and environments. These are definitely family dogs for the home that "turn on" in the field for an incredible hunting partner; however, we encourage some form of puppy social /obedience class for new puppies and their families. We don't raise "kennel" dogs. We have 7 GSP's and they all live in the house with us. They are like our children. Some people have lots of kids, we have 4-legged kids to bring enjoyment to our lives :) All of our dogs are great in the field as well as outstanding family members. 1. Fritz's father is a 2 time NFC as well as a Dual Champion. His first 3 generations include: 2xNFC, DC Liebmeister Roll Tide, FC Northman's Dixieland Cody, CH Liebmeister Kiss My Fanny , Rusty Patch Of Staver SH with other proven hunting and show lines 2. Madison is out of Northwood Mountain Kennel. Her parents are DC/AFC Eagle Ridge Royal Magnitude MH and CH. NMK's Timeless Trilogy, MH. You won't find any better lines anywhere. 3. Ali has been a great addition that we acquired from Relentless Shorthairs. It was our lucky day when I saw her advertised. Her first 3 generations include DC Nmk's Earl Of Velvet Horn and CH NMK's Samba De Luna JH, CH Laguna's Rolex Classic, CH Nmk's Placer Country Snowbird, CH Sachi Von Der Strand, DC AFC NMK-Rd's Final Curtain Call MH, CH Nmk's Placer Country Snowbird, FC AFC R Desire's Lonesome Dove MH. One look at her pedigree and you will know for certain there is not a better line for a dual quality foot hunting dog. Ali has 6 points in the show ring. She is a natural gun dog, loves water and retrieves like crazy. 4. Gunner is out of Sixxem's Kennel in Pueblo, CO. Lenny Morales produces some incredible dogs starting with the best Field Trial Stock. Gunner is a direct son of 5xCH 4xRU-CH 2xNGDC FC AFC Slicks Cuttin Wild and FC Dixielands Smokin Dancer. Gunner is an amazing young dog, that real "once in a lifetime" animal. He was an impressive pup right out of the gate! He was pointing birds at the age of 4 ½ months in Colorado. We feel Gunner got his parent's field ability and conformation. Gunner is a bird finding machine in the field and a true lover in the house. Here is a video from when he was 4 ½ months old: Gunner's Video. Don't miss out on one of these Dual Quality pups. Please visit our website for more information: www.IdahoHuntingDogs.com or call evenings 208-681-6127. Email: email@example.com. Thanks for your interest in our pups!!

From the day her mom came into heat we were kept informed as to how everything was going. Cheryl would send pictures of momma Abby and her belly growing. Then came delivery, and my husband stated up the entire time and watched all the puppies be born. Cheryl talked to him on line In between puppies being born. We watched live web cams of Sprig growing. Then it was time to go pick her up. It was too hot to fly her to Las Vegas so we took off for Idaho. It was wonderful to meet Cheryl in person and to see all the dogs. This is our first GSP and when we buy another, it will decently be from IHD. They breed those puppies with lots if love. Submitted by: Bruce Benedict on May 05, 2013 We have 2 dogs from Idaho Hunting Dogs. Frieda is 3 and Abby is 6months. They are so much into natural hunting birds. It is in the genes. Little Abby with no train g stops behind Frieda and honors her and points great. I would tell anyone if you want the best you need to get a German Shorthair Pointer from Idaho Hunting Dogs. Their pups are pointers from he word go. They get A plus from us and we would definitely recommend their pups to who ever wants the best GSP. Submitted by: Vickie and Noel Tanner on May 03, 2013 It is our pleasure to write of the great experiences we have had with our two dogs from Mark and Cheryl Matthiesen of Idaho Hunting Dogs. We got our gentleman boy, "Tracks" from then as an 8-week old pup 7 years old this April and to say he has been everything we could have dreamed of would be an understatement. He has a great nose, a wonderful disposition and gets along well with other dogs. He is very handsome and we have been approached by other breeders with interest in having him breed their females. In the middle years of his life, he is a loving companion who still gets excited and turns on when out in the field. He transforms from a middle aged dog to a 2 or 3 year old in the blink of an eye. We were so impressed with "Tracks", that we got our second pup, a female named "Ziva" from Mark and Cheryl last year. Mother nature gifted her with a nose even better than Tracks had and at less than a year old she was holding points for over 5 minutes all on her own. She is intense, focused and a beautiful girl. She also has the personality that makes her a wonderful family dog. We couldn't be happier with the dogs we have gotten from Idaho Hunting Dogs and will definitely go back to them when the time comes to get another dog. We are also friends with many others who have gotten pups from them as well and all feel the same as we do. They are the people to go to in our opinion! If you want an awesome dog with good breeding, innate abilities and that has been raised in an environment to foster a great hunting dog, as well as a great family member, please check out Mark and Cheryl Matthiesen of Idaho Hunting Dogs. You'll be glad that you did... I know we are! Submitted by: Frank Stetz on May 03, 2013 Great people great dogs. Bought my first GSP from them 9 yr's ago this Aug. Couldn't have just one so got another May 2012. Both outstanding field and home companions. Bogie and Tori bring a smile to our faces each and every day. Mark and Cheryl love their dods and it shows in the type of pups that they provide. If looking for a well bread GSP, IHD's should top your list.Submitted by: bryan jaffe on May 03, 2013 When I wanted a GSP puppy, we chose Idaho Hunting Dogs due to their reputation and our comfort with Mark and Cheryl as breeders. They do things the right way in our opinion. We could not be more pleased with our pup, Tyr (Phoenix/Molly 2005), who is now 7. Tyr is very intelligent, highly trainable, and in great shape. It's been a joy having her as part of our family. Further, it has enable us to build a relationship with other IHD owners, who now are part of our broader "family". Submitted by: Sara Alexander on May 03, 2013 We have a beautiful German shorthaired pointer girl, Willow from Mark and Cheryl at Idaho Hunting Dogs. We were looking to add another GSP to our house and found the Idaho Hunting Dog website. We are so happy that we did. They really care about the homes their dogs are placed. The breeders that we got our two other GSP's from didn't ask half the questions that they did. That really said a lot about how much they care about their puppies future. It was fantastic to watch the birth of our baby girl online. From the time she was born until the day we drove to Idaho to pick her up, there were tons of photos and videos of her online and emailed to us. We will have those photos and videos forever! I wish we had that for our other two GSP's! When we arrived at Mark and Cheryl's "kennel" to pick her up, it was anything but a "kennel". We walked into a beautiful family home with all the dogs walking and lounging around the house. Of course there were crazy little puppies in the mix too! Our Willow just turned one and we couldn't be happier with her. She's beautiful, intelligent and very loving. Thank you Mark and Cheryl for bringing this little girl into our life!!! Submitted by: Steve Sonnenberg on May 03, 2013 Great breeder with phenomenal pups. Submitted by: Mandy Brooks on May 03, 2013 Mark and Cheryl are nothing short of amazing! We have taken two of their dogs and continue to keep in touch with them regularly and our oldest girl is almost 6. They have an incredible network of people and friends. When we had to rehome one of our girls recently, the first person I went to was Cheryl. Within days, she had found us a wonderful new home. She cares for her puppies as long as they are on this planet with us and then some. I would not buy from anyone else! We love Idaho Hunting Dogs! Submitted by: Megan Perry on Apr 27, 2012 Mark and Cheryl are amazing!! My husband and I had been researching different GSP breeders and Idaho Hunting Dogs was by far our favorite!!! Both mark and cheryl were great with answering any questions we had. We were able to see our puppy pretty much from birth grow up till the day we picked him up! Idaho hunting dogs was able to stream live video of the puppies and sent lots of pictures! We still keep in contact with them and give them updates on our great addition to our family!! Our puppy is now 9 months old and has a great temperament! He is so social able and great with kids!! He loves to be with us and has such a great personality! He has been a great addition to our family! We love him!!! Thank you Mark and Cheryl for breeding such amazing pups! We have recommended lots of people to them and to look at the GSP! Great dogs!!Submitted by: Brian Marshall on Apr 26, 2012 We recently received a wonderful GSP pup from Mark and Cheryl based on the excellent feedback from many current and past IHD dog owners. All I have to say is WOW was it worth the wait and the 25 hour round trip from Arizona. Little Alice is a gift. Very trainable, very alert, healthy and has no doubt enriched our lives already.I can't say enough good things about Mark and Cheryl, and their breeding program. They do what they do with love, and it shows. They were so helpful and easy to work with from start to finish I would not hesitate to adopt another IHD pup in the future. Great dogs from a great breeder! More Reviews for IDAHO HUNTING DOGS | >> Submit your testimonial |

stever Viva Las CrucesPosts: 42,990My sister had a first year model Firebird (not a convertible). I don't remember the wheel wells being all swoopy like that. Pretty sure her's was the base with the six cylinder in it. Bright yellow.
She was out of the house and off to college by then and I had just gotten my learner's permit so I only got to drive it once. Took a couple of visiting cousins to the drive-in.Moderator

stever Viva Las CrucesPosts: 42,990Beats me - mostly what I remember about that car was her parking it in the front yard so everyone driving by would be sure to see it. And then there was the time she was running me somewhere on the highway and didn't notice that the Greyhound bus in front of us was slowing to pull off at a stop, and wasn't actively braking to trigger the brake lights. I thought we were going to drive right under it. :shades:

wgrafer Posts: 592Right, '68 was the first year with side marker lights. Also, '67 had vent windows which were gone the next year.
For fun, when (if) you watch Diners, Drive-ins, & Dives check out which red convertible Camaro Guy Fieri is driving - he seems to switch between the original '67 (with vent windows) to a '68 or '69 (without vent windows). -
andys120 Loudon NHPosts: 16,824Yup that is a first year 1967 Pontiac Firebird Sprint. Sprint versions of the Firebird and Tempest used a SOHC six, an option that didn't prove popular in that era of cheap gas.
"OHC 6 Sprint" lettering (barely visible) on the lower flank indicates this option.2000 BMW 528i, 2001 BMW 330CiC
andys120 Loudon NHPosts: 16,824Yes indeed, the 2 liter, 4 cyl. precursor to the wonderful 6 cylinder E9 Bimmers
I've always thought the resemblance to the '65 Corvair coupe was remarkable considering that the 2000C/CS reached showrooms in 1965, the same year as the 'Vair. Who was stealing from whom?2000 BMW 528i, 2001 BMW 330CiC
andys120 Loudon NHPosts: 16,824Yup, it's a pair of '58 Caddies, the white convertible being a rare Eldorado Biarritz. The black is a limousine (Series 75?).
The still is from Magic City which is set in Miami Beach in 1959 so it is chock full of 50s vintage iron especially of the upscale sort. It's also a pretty well-made acted and written series. (Starz, Fri 9P edt)2000 BMW 528i, 2001 BMW 330CiC
andys120 Loudon NHPosts: 16,824Rear engine vs. front engine... I'd say it was probably coincidence...
Oh there were plenty of differences but they also had similar styling and both featured IRS, a real rarity in the mid 1960s. I have a hard time believing there wasn't some "industrial espionage" going on.2000 BMW 528i, 2001 BMW 330CiC

OK MBK, I've set up quick poll for date preference...... I voted for 14th April as it would seem to suit you and me both...... cheers robbie
Whichever for me, as I can do either... But I do agree with P_G, as I too will have summer tyres back on by then... And Catnip's leg-over (Yeah, yeah, yeah!) will be a distant memory by April 14th, so he'll be able to make it too.
I'm starting to think that a mid-week meet outside a certain Audi Uk establishment in Milton Keynes may be more productive? Or is it me? I don't have a problem with my RS3 but I'd gladly be there...
Do you like the S4?, I think the interior is far superior than the RS3 and power delivery was mega-smooth because of the supercharger....I loved the car but at the end of the day, I found it a bit boring after a while, hence I got my RS3 back!....Whoohooo!!! ya can see my neighbours at the windows when I arrive home thinking there is a bus in the cul-de-sac!...well should be gone on Wednesday after the infamous 45bvtc fixeroonie!
Just drove to Glasgow for the weekend and cruised back today in the S4.... Next generation DSG gear box is cool downshifting between D and S is nice..... mpg is easy to get good returns, however as you said a little boring for my tastes. I'm not keen on the instrument binnacle and the dash/console around the gear stick is a little busy for my taste. 3.0V6 is very grown up, older persons set up IMHO...... do not like front end and all the chintzy chrome touches everywhere, would defiantly spec black optics pack on this car
Good effort setting this up - hope it all goes ahead. Unfortunately I've got nipper number 2 arriving around mid-April and can't be circa 4-5 hours away from home if he decides to hit the "S" button and arrive early!
Only made a few posts on here, but I'd be interested in going, depending on how far it is from London, but willing to go for a "drive". If the weather is really nice, is one allowed to appear in another vehicle? I'd don the "my other car is an RS3 sticker!"

Hi mate, No cap on numbers, got an RS3....... Yer in......... Not got one....... you ain't coming. Due to the overwhelming response to April 14th it's now nailed on........... Nearer the time, early April everyone should PM me their email address and I'll send the location, time and itinerary. cheers robbie
Hope ALL goes well for you monkeyboy_marcus, and your wife, and the little one... Oh, and not forgetting, your RS3! AND April 14th is just great for me... Can't wait...
Excellent, thanks robbie, indeed one has an RS3 and looking fwd to using it on summer tyres, which I've only used for a week on frozen roads. So a bit of warmth on summer ryes will be great, and get to see a whole other load of rs3s! Looking fwd to it Anyone else coming from down sooth?
not sure...... check back on all the reply's and see who's coming from where I guess..... you'll be made very welcome, details will be emailed to you nearer the time, make sure you send me you're email address please and the details will be emailed through to you....... cheers robbie
Excellent idea!....then all the Northern guys can meet up and travel together, then have a battle of the middle-aged men (and pensioners) in their RS3's in Mid Wales!...Bye 'eck I don't think half of us will understand each other. ps...are you coming too Piggles?
Yup, good idea, where you coming from Wickedstef? Can arrange to meet somewhere en route of you like?
Hi Guys, my planned route will be from the M6 at Junction 12 and down the A5 and A41 to Newport and Whitchurch, and then.... Or from the M6 at Junction 12 and down the A5 to Oswestry, and then.... Or straight up the M6, even, and then.... So, if you guys intend dropping off the M6 at Junction 12 - or continuing past - then I'll be waiting and drop in behind.... I was going to say "at the rear" but I don't want to get robbimac adding more turdish humour/graffiti (lol robbimac, and good morning). Or let me know your route when we know the destination, so then.... PS: snowing here today so summer tyres back off and winter tyres back on!!! Oops!! What A mistaka-ta-maka (Vito to translate hahaha)
Is it just me?, but I was wondering what that badge was on the lower front wing, so I zoomed in on it using Photoshop.
This looks to be great timing as one of the other forums is doing the EVO triangle run the day before so I could have 2 days of driving nirvana in Wales. Just have to think of somewhere to stay on the Saturday night. Any suggestions from those who know the area?
Anybody travelling from the North West?...maybe meet in Chester and drive over? I'm in Bolton BTW (for my sins!)
Hi Catnip, I am coming from Preston, we could meet at the chester zoo exit petrol station ? ( M56 exit 14 )

Hi Vito....yes that sounds like a plan!, we will discuss further closer to the date? Thanks for the message Robbie, will email you later...you might as well meet me and Vito (and any others) on the M56 on your way down?
Replied to Robbie. Apart from Bilen, who's coming from the south? I have 4ish hours journey so will leave for 7am.
OK mate..... Check the recent PM's sent to you, on the recipients list you can see who's been asked...... most are from the North, got no problem with you inviting other RS3 owners, I've invited anyone that's showed interest in the original post/thread...... As I said before, keep it RS3 owners only and we won't go far wrong...... cheers robbie
Ah go on then...arm twisted i'll come to this! If you guys want to meet up and convoy down i'm up for that! Can meet at Charnock first Vito? Then what about Lymm services for Catnip?
nice one,you re coming then Macdaddy.................and yes of course we'll meet somewhere and drive down together, no convoy though , SIDE BY SIDE...
Vito, check you're email.... big news, try and not explode with excitement..... keep it down low PM only if you need to chat

The Lost Art of Thank You 16. May 2008 Maranda Gibson Business Communications (0) Few things are as powerful or as simple as saying thank you. Looking someone in the eye, a genuine smile, a firm handshake; each has meaning beyond words. They touch people. They communicate sincerity and integrity. They earn trust and respect. These are powerful tools and are opportunities easily missed. Letter writing is a dying art. The need to write letters is fading quickly, overtaken by the speed and efficiency of email, cell phones, and the fast-paced lifestyle. There just isn't time in the day to sit down and compose a long, detailed essay like long ago. We used to tell the details of our lives, our innermost thoughts and experiences, in our letters. Now it just takes too long. There just isn't time. It isn't necessary to write these long letters anymore. We should, however, make the time for quick notes. Keeping a stock of blank cards on hand is a great way to "knock off" a quick thank you when dealing with a customer or a business acquaintance. Do you remember the last time you received a thank you card or note from anyone? If you've gotten one, I'll bet you remember it. If not, then you know how rare it is. It's a powerful moment when somebody opens their mail to see you took the time to sit down, right a note, stamp it, and drop it in the mail. Your contact with that person just became so much more than average. Your ability to be remembered has increased dramatically. You touched them and made them feel appreciated. This quiet gesture is powerful. The greatest communicators know the effect of letter writing, especially of the thank you. Former President Ronald Reagan was a great believer in the letter. He spent many of his quiet moments composing thoughtful letters to friends, loved ones, and politicians from both sides of the aisle. He knew the letter could accomplish great things and do it in a personal and one -on-one way. All you need is a thank you note and you can accomplish the same thing with great results. So little effort. So much reward.
Moderator, I'm Ready 15. May 2008 Maranda Gibson Conference Calls (0) Lecture mode has to be one of the best and most influential features modern conference calls have. How else can you easily manage a call with fifty, one hundred, a thousand, or more people breathing and coughing and opening bags of potato chips? With lecture mode on, your participants - no matter how many - can rest at ease to concentrate on your message without worrying if they are contributing to the background noise of the call. You, the host, can rest easy too, as no one can accidentally un-mute themselves, or worse, never mute to begin with. As a participant, there is one thing you are responsible for: be ready when it's your turn. In lecture mode, you can signal the moderator that you have a question by pressing star 1 on your telephone keypad and you get put into a queue. Occasionally it will take a while to get to you, but you should make sure to be ready. Once you signal, you could be un-muted at any time, so stay on your toes!
Conferencing to the Rescue 13. May 2008 Maranda Gibson Conference Calls (0) When cashflow is low, small businesses need to find ways to continue their marketing/sales efforts on a limited budget. This post at a SBA Loan Blog outlines two ways to continue marketing on a shoe-string budget.
Tips To Be A Better Manager Today 12. May 2008 Maranda Gibson (0) In a blog post that is now nearly three years old, Penelope Trunk writes succinct advice about how to not be "that manager" that everyone hates. Trunk had four items on her list: 1. Focusing on tasks instead of people 2. Being slow to transition 3. Forgetting to manage up 4. Talking more than listening And they're good. Right on the money. But we have a few more. 5. Failing to moderate two opposing forces This could fall under any of the above four easily, but I wanted to make a distinction. There is nothing worse than being an employee and in a dispute with a colleague and willing to work out differences and the colleague wants to continue the dispute. And it happens a lot out in the business world. A good manager refuses to take sides, but acts as moderator, soothing both sides with equal aplomb. And when that doesn't work, a good manager puts an end to behavior that only perpetuates the problem. For example, two people on the same project are offended by each other. The one person demands the other be taken off the project, because "she just won't work with anyone."The other person retorts that perhaps it would be easier to work if "he would just quit running everyone around like a herd of cattle." You need the two to work together and so you mediate a conversation. Help them let it all out. The one agrees that he has been rather bossy and agrees to change his attitude. The other, however, continues to push her point. And so, a good manager nips that in the bud. Enough is enough. The same would happen if the cattle herder had refused to change his ways. Don't play sides. 6. Agreeing to a complaint and making no action If one of your team has complained to you about an issue, it does no one any good to simply push the paper around on the top of your desk for a week or so. It only lets the employee simmer a bit too long. See if you can't make at least one call about the matter, if only to let your employee know that you do consider it important and are willing to take at least one bit of action on it. It may take a week to solve, but your immediate action speaks volumes. 7. Forgetting everyone else's point of view but your own Managers didn't get to their position by being as neutral as Switzerland on certain topics. However, the key to management is making sure you know more about your team's thoughts on a topic than your own. That is the power of a manager. A manager that can see the full scope of opinions on a team is a decision maker with many counselors and destined to make good decisions.
Do's and Don'ts For Participants At Your Next Conference Call 9. May 2008 Maranda Gibson Conference Calls (0) A conference call is very much like a regular meeting in many ways, but it also differs tremendously. Here are a few do's and don'ts to help you be a better teleconference participant. Do's for participants: Arrive early online or on the phone Clearly state your name when you log in or arrive Mute your phone to prevent background noise from disturbing others Stay focused, don't drift off mentally by doing your email while attending a teleconference you may miss something important Participate and ask questions when appropriate Don'ts for participants: Don't put your phone on hold if you step away everyone may hear your hold music Don't eat while you are listening in, the smacking and chewing is considered rude behavior Don't talk to others while you are on a teleconference - unless you are sure your phone is muted Don't multi-task while you are on the call turn off your cell phone and PDA Don't interrupt the speaker, wait until the question and answer period unless your teleconference has a more give and take format. Remember to unmute your phone to ask your question
Telehealth – Health Care The Teleconferencing Way 9. May 2008 Maranda Gibson Conference Calls (0) The state of Missouri is in the process of reviewing legislation to regulate the telehealth industry. "Senator Tom Dempsey of St. Peters wants the state health department to establish guidelines for use of telehealth and for the doctors who will use it. Dempsey says the system is especially useful in rural areas where specialists might be a long distance from the patient." Right now some health care insurance providers will not pay for telehealth consultations for diagnosis or treatment and Missouri Senator Top Dempsey wants to change that by introducing legislation that will allow for the regulation of telehealth in an effort to provide low cost health care alternatives to rural residents. With the bill being stuck in the House of Representative for the last 11 days as of May 5, 2008, telehealth program plans may be stymied in Missouri until the House comes back into session and schedules a committee meeting on this very important topic that is sure to benefit Missouri residents.
Video Conferencing to Settle Internet Disputes 6. May 2008 Maranda Gibson Video Conferencing (0) People are participating in business projects and buying and selling goods and services with other people who are located all over the world by way of the internet. Shoppers can often find great deals. However, let's say the owner of a website located in Asia refuses to give you a refund and the thought of spending a substantial amount of money and time flying to Asia to settle the issue in court or with a mediator seems a little silly since the item cost you twenty-five dollars. Perhaps in the future it will be common place for websites to offer mediation to settle disputes with customers by way of video conferencing. Now the idea of solving the problem for low cost items and services with far away companies is more realistic. Mediation experts claim that utilizing video conferencing for disputes can provide more effective emotional communications than the telephone. Also, the participants are less likely to be intimidated by the physical presence of the other person. In the future, instead of shoppers sending numerous intimidating or nasty emails to website owners perhaps a video conference meeting where each person realizes the other is an actual human being and not just a writer of emails will help resolve issues.
Measuring Productivity A Bit Differently These Days 5. May 2008 Maranda Gibson (0) Looking to improve productivity in your organization? Check out a few of these recent news articles. Reuters highlights a recent study on job flexibility as it relates to productivity and loyalty among employees. "Researchers at Wake Forest University School of Medicine in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, found that workers who enjoyed more work flexibility were also less likely to say health problems affected their performance at work. Offering a variety of alternative work arrangements and training managers and supervisors to be supportive of workers' personal lives may help in creating a culture of flexibility, researchers added." In the UK, "a survey of 2,347 people, commissioned by employee wellbeing specialist Right Corecare, found that four in 10 respondents work extra hours in the office, with 21% pointing to their bosses' expectations as the main reason to do so." The article reports, "A quarter of respondents admit to checking Facebook or surfing the net on company time, often after they have finished work, with 16% admitting they work late to be seen as hard working." From Canada's Globe and Mail, a quick and helpful guide to picking and choosing productivity tools. Productivity consultant Francis Wade writes, "With the flood of productivity tips and productivity tools assailing you, which ones should you choose? . . . [T]here are seven essential practices that we carry out as we do our work. Each tool should be assessed by whether it helps you to manage one or more of those steps better."

We need the Earth for our spiritual lives
Most of us don't realize just how much we need the Earth for our spiritual vitality and wellbeing. Because the natural world is "always there," we take it for granted and seldom connect it to our spirituality. We think we need the church for our spiritual lives, but not nature. We assume our spirituality is independent of what is happening in nature.
Think for a moment how the major Catholic feasts are timed to coincide with events in nature. Look how much Christmas is built on the natural world. The winter solstice and symbolism of light overcoming the darkness mirrors Christ the light coming to remove the darkness of sin. The shepherd saw angels in the night sky and the magi followed a star (which we can hardly imagine because we can't see the stars where most of us live!) And wouldn't the story lose a lot if Jesus had been born in a run-down shelter in the inner city instead of a stable? The animals lend texture, earthiness, and warmth to the event.

The Cleveland Browns have named Mike Pettine as their new coach.
Pettine has spent the past five years as a defensive coordinator, working with Buffalo last season after four seasons on the staff of the New York Jets.
The 47-year-old replaces Rob Chudzinski, who was axed after the Browns stumbled to a 4-12 record this term.
"Mike is the epitome of what we want the Browns to be: tough, aggressive and innovative with a blue-collar, team-first mentality," said Browns owner Jimmy Haslam.
"Most importantly, Mike has repeatedly shown the ability to lead his players to consistent improvement and success, clearly what we are striving for."
Pettine, who also spent seven years as an assistant coach with the Baltimore Ravens, guided defensive units to top-10 rankings in total defense in all five of his seasons as a defensive coordinator.
His aggressive system in Buffalo last season saw the Bills set a club record with 57 sacks, second most in the NFL.
"Our players and fans are going to really enjoy Mike Pettine and his leadership style," Browns chief executive Joe Banner said. "We're excited to have him out in front of our team."

I carry an inhaler. epi-pen, peppermint candy and extra medication. I also know a girl who must carry a meter and wear a insulin pump; all "without" a purse.
I carry my own keys & wallet. A DL, credit card, debit card, insurance card and a little cash will ALL fit nicely in a small concealable wallet.
A pair of good glasses with progressive lenses takes care of mine and my wifes need for reading & driving glasses.
That leaves the UN-necessary stuff. ALL of which can be kept in your vehicle or GHB. My wife and I both still carry our gun and spare magazines. We sometimes even carry a BUG.
Heck, my wife has even learned how to avoid carrying a purse during that "special" time of the month. So, there is in fact "TRUTH" to what I said.
You may call my post bs. But, I call your remarks typical liberal idiocy; stated just to provoke an argument and reveal your elitist mentality.

Very well read by John Lee, this audiobook will not only keep you interested through brilliant suspense, but will also tickle your intellect with its fascinating forays into anthropology and the power of human beings to shape themselves to fit their environment -- even when they've made that environment themselves.
Way more fun than reading Foucault, but much more interesting than your average suspense novel.
It's so full of interesting words, however, I really wish I could see how they were spelled...

'The Bachelorette' bachelor Sean Lowe: I think Ryan Bowers is a little misunderstood
By Elizabeth Kwiatkowski, 06/08/2012
The Bachelorette
bachelor Sean Lowe has emerged as one of the early frontrunners to win Bachelorette
Emily Maynard
's heart.
After Emily's girlfriends identified Sean as one of their favorites,
The Bachelorette
star gave him some intimate private time along with the group date's rose during last week's episode. During this Monday night's broadcast, Sean and Emily's relationship will go to the next level, as the couple will embark on their first one-on-one date together.
During a Thursday conference call with reporters, Sean talked to Reality TV World about his experience thus far on
The Bachelorette
and offered a sneak peak of what's to come -- including what kind of drama viewers should expect to see soon, whether he believed fellow bachelor Ryan Bowers was on the show for the wrong reasons and why he originally decided to appear on the show.
Reality TV World: The Bachelorette 8
More The Bachelorette 8 News
Below is the first portion of Sean's call. Check back with Reality TV World on Monday for the concluding portion.
Reality TV World: During Monday night's episode, there was a lot of discussion amongst the bachelors about age. Chris Bukowski, who's 25, apparently thought Doug Clerget, who is 33, was a little condescending towards him -- as Doug was saying maybe Chris wasn't mature enough to date Emily and take on a daughter. You're 28, so what are your thoughts on that argument? Were you aware of the conflict between Doug and Chris while you were there and whose side are you on?
Sean Lowe:
Yeah, I was kind of sitting in the middle of that conversation and I kind of lean towards Chris' side. I believe your age is not necessarily indicative of how mature you are. At the same time, I think Chris probably could've handled that whole situation a little better than he did, which may be an indication of his immaturity, you know?
So for the most part, I stayed out of it, but I don't believe that because you're older, it necessarily makes you wiser. I think I made a comment in the episode that we should just have a bunch of guys that are 40 because they might be more wise than everybody here, you know? So I would probably lean towards Chris' side of the argument.
Reality TV World: When we talked to Tony Pieper last week, he said he thought there were some guys in the house who claimed they were ready to step into a father role but probably weren't in real life. Would you agree or disagree with Tony? And if you agree, do you think the guy who upsets Emily with his comment that her daughter is "baggage" on next week's show is the only one not ready, or do you think there were also others?
Sean Lowe:
I definitely think the guy who made the "baggage" comment was not ready by any means, and that's a tough question. It's hard to say whether someone's going to be ready or not.
You really have to get down to the root of the man to figure that out, and I'm not sure because there may be some guys who appear ready -- who are put into that situation and buckle under the pressure -- I'm not sure, but I think most guys have the right intentions and they honestly believe that they could step into that role if they were called.
Reality TV World: ABC is letting you tease a little bit of the drama coming up in the season. I don't know how much you can reveal, but could you talk a little bit about that? Is there anything else besides the "baggage" comment that's been previewed you could touch upon?
Sean Lowe:
Outside of the "baggage" incident, I don't know about any other guy drama. I can say that Monday is going to be an awesome day. It's going to be awesome for me to go back and watch it, because like I was mentioning earlier, this is where I think you're going to start seeing sparks fly between Emily and me, and this is where we kind of kick off our relationship.
That's what I'm most excited to see and yeah, like I said, as far as the guys go, I know everyone was kind of fired up over the "baggage" comment, but I don't know if there's any other guy drama outside of that.
Reality TV World: Do you think any of the guys on the show were there for the wrong reasons? What about Ryan, for example? He's been shown talking about how he would like to become the next
The Bachelor
star and felt destined for bigger things than just being one of Emily's many suitors. So what are your thoughts on that?
Sean Lowe:
You know, Ryan is such an interesting guy and when we first moved into the house in Charlotte, Ryan and I bonded right off the bat. We have a lot of things in common. We're both from the south and we grew up playing football, and we bonded. After spending time with Ryan, I think he may be a little bit misunderstood.
I know he's got strong opinions and he often sticks his foot in his mouth, and there's no excuse for that, but at the same time, I think his heart's in the right place -- maybe he just doesn't know the right way to express how he's feeling or what he's thinking.
But ultimately, I think, "Is he there for the right reasons? I don't know. I don't know." I think we might have to watch and I'm anxious to see some of the behind-the-scenes stuff, as far as what Ryan's saying in his interviews and so forth to really get a better feel to whether or not he's there for the right reasons.
Reality TV World: How did you decide to go on
The Bachelorette
in the first place? Was it to find love with Emily in particular?
Sean Lowe:
Yeah, you know, my sister and my brother-in-law, they submitted my name and I got a call from the casting department. And at first, I was totally against it and I didn't think I was going to do it. And the casting director says, "Well why don't you just send in your video that you have to send in, and if you change your mind, you can always go forward."
So I sent in the video and not long after that, I found out it was Emily, and that was the tipping point for me. When I found out it was Emily, I had heard so many good things about her, that's when I decided to do the show.
Above is the first portion of Sean's call. Check back with Reality TV World on Monday for the concluding portion.

the couple last pages
so dramatic...in a good way
I realized how poetic and well crafted that chapter was after I read it a couple times.....but I'm kind of confused, I thought the soldier was the king before Flamingo, I thought they said that before?
Why? We haven't seen neither of them fight seriously since the start of the 2 years. Their little skirmish, Fujitora blocked his attack, but also know that Zoro was going one sword and no bandana on his head!, and surprised him with his devil fruit power of gravity. Zoro's glasses get broken, he is falling and sends him a flying slash, and escapes from his gravity control and is ready to go again but Fuji ESCAPES (just joking in this last part, don't come at me).

PS: Also of what importance do you think Momonosuke is? Is he another royalty, like, a possible heir for the next shogun? Why are they running away from Wano, or from what? Why is Doflamingo interested in Momo?

You're right, we haven't seen him fighting seriously, but we have also seen what a non-serious Fujitora can do while eating noodles. And Zoro is around Law's level, so we know he could hang for a while with a non-serious Fujitora (+ Dofla), but if they'd be both serious, I don't think Zoro (or Luffy, or Law) would last very long. I think there are still some arcs till they can give the newer generation of Admirals a good fight (which are viewed as a bit weaker than the Colored Trio in most of the forums I've been).
There's a theory floating around that Kaido is moving against Wano or something, because both Momo and Kinnemon reacted strongly when they heard his name. So Kaido is probably involved in whatever drove them off their home island.
Ah, this was a reply to my post...yeah, that was a little tongue-in-cheek.
He had the girl with him, take a look at their whole group again. It was explained in the chapter that Sugar forgot to make a contract with him, so he didn't have to take orders from her or Dofla, which enabled him to rebel against them. But yeah, he was the very first toy and King Riku was the guy from the Colosseum.
Zoro? Take out Fujitora? HAHAHA, come on guys, dont let the time skip get to your heads :P
"He is now declaring his words to the WORLD!"
IF anything I think their fight would end in a mutual stand down. Like Zoro having to leave with the rest towards Zou and Fuji taking care of the civil war(is that what you would call it?). Thanks to Trebol Ussop now has a lot of ammunition no? Also I like how Zoro is being mentioned as nowhere near Fujitora's level, but Usoland is expected to tough up against Mingo's subordinates? Common, this guy?:

Last edited by Tamiel; 02-26-2014 at 09:29 PM. Reason: Re-reading one piece, again.
Nah, not really. Only the fiercest Usopp fans thought he could take a M3 level opponent. But now with the flammable sticky stuff, he might have an advantage, so there's a possibility he might hold off Trebol for some time? With Robin's help? I seriously don't know, but he'll have to do something after Leo's speech.
I still hope he'll devise some kind of tactic to take Sugar out while distracting Trebol.
I must need to explain myself better because nobody ever understands me anymore. LOL. My comment was regarding the king down below in the dungeon and why he isn't a toy. I don't think Mingo had the little girl around when he usurped power from the previous king.
I obviously can't speak for everyone else, but me personally I don't think Zoro can take out Fujitora. However I think he would make Fujitora get serious, if they fought now I think something would certainly interrupt the fight preventing Zoro from loosing. That is all I am saying, also I think Zoro might be stronger than Law. Contrary to what someone else stated in this thread.
Kind of confused on Mingo's power structure, I will need to go back and review it before giving my opinion on Usop and Mingo's subordinates. *SIGH* Tying to find which chapter listed them as a power structure will be a pain.

Today's must-reads from around the Internet.
A 24-million-dollar afternoon in Geneva and the Internet's highest threat, after the jump…»
Typically, one thinks of an heirloom only after it's weathered a few generations of handsome patina acquisition. But originally—before that watch, or briefcase, or sword earned its perfectly imperfect nicks, battle scars and lived-in familiarity—it started out shiny and new on some store shelf. And since there are still companies out there making stuff that will last longer than you will, we've set out to find the new breed of future heirlooms in this weeklong series. Today we begin with watches...
Herewith, the five new watches to buy today, that will be heirlooms tomorrow...»
We've said it before, but it bears repeating: the best watch deals all come from auction houses. So we were thrilled to see a new batch coming to Rockefeller Center later this month. Our favorites so far are this square Patek Philippe (circa 1929), a Longines military watch made just after the close of WWII and this 1965 Rolex GMT-Master. You've got two weeks to raise the funds.
As anyone with a serious vintage watch habit can testify, the really good stuff is all at auction. The latest example is a Christie's auction coming up this Monday in Geneva, featuring three of our favorite post-Submariner watches for some extremely friendly prices. (Don't worry, you can bid remotely.) There's the Jaeger LeCoultre Reverso, the Cartier Tank and an unusually art deco Patek Phillipe.
That last one also comes in a million-dollar version, if you want to do your part for the Eurozone.
We'll be the first to admit, the pocket watch revival we've been working on isn't quite here yet. But it could happen at any moment. And when it does, we'd like to be prepared.
So naturally, when we saw there was a century-old Patek Philippe pocket watch coming up for auction next week, we couldn't resist. It comes from Antiquorum, one of Hong Kong's better auction houses, and if the estimate is to be believed, you could walk away with it for a paltry $128,000. Compared to some of the Submariner collections you'll see on Tumblr, that's a bargain.
Now all we need is a watch fob, a three-piece suit and (if possible) a monocle.
If there's one thing that our vintage watch travails have impressed upon us, it's this: The big names are big for a reason. Patek Phillipe is a prime example, especially their Perpetual Calendar.
They've spent the better part of a century perfecting it—and making a few different versions—but most pieces have the usual configuration: day and month at noon, moon phase and date at six. Usually. Today we stumbled upon one just a little different, but in a good way, known simply as Ref.5050.
Vanity Fair has posted their somewhat puffy take on the Bruni-Sarkozy affair, including a quick, Trump-free rundown of Bruni and Sarkozy's exes.
Among the tidbits offered is a fact in favor of Mme. Bruni's fashion sense: she convinced Sarko to swap his nouveau riche gold watch in favor of a sleeker Patek Phillip model.

At the beginning of 2014, I started the year with the theme: "it's an exciting time to be part of the DCIG team". This was due to the explosive growth we saw in website visits and popularity of our Buyer's Guides. That hasn't changed. DCIG Buyer's Guides continue to grow in popularity, but what's even more exciting is the diversity of our new products and services. This year's theme is diversity: a range of different things. DCIG is expanding…again…in different directions.
Category Archives: SSD
Dedicating a single flash-based storage array to improving the performance of a single application may be appropriate for siloed or small SAN environments. However this is NOT an architecture that enterprises want to leverage when hosting multiple applications in larger SAN environments, especially if the flash-based arrays has only a few or unproven data management services behind it. The new Oracle FS1 Series Flash Storage System addresses these concerns by providing enterprises both the levels of performance and the mature and robust data management services that they need to move flash-based arrays from the fringes of their SAN environments into their core.
A couple of weeks ago I attended the Flash Memory Summit in Santa Clara, CA, where I had the opportunity to talk to a number of providers, fellow analysts and developers in attendance about the topic of flash memory. The focus of many of these conversations was less about what flash means right now as its performance ramifications are already pretty well understood by the enterprise. Rather many are already looking ahead to take further advantage of flash's particular idiosyncrasies and, in so doing, give us some good insight into what will be hot in flash in the years to come.
There is literally a divergence occurring right now in data storage solutions. On one hand, a number of storage providers seek to deliver highly differentiated storage solutions that work with a broad set of applications and operating systems. On the other, a few providers focus on delivering a storage solution that tightly integrates with one or more applications to deliver unparalleled levels of application performance and ease of management. The latest Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance ZS3 Series with its new OS8.2 provide the best of what both of these categories of storage systems currently have to offer to deliver a storage platform that truly stands apart.
The use of data reduction technologies such as compression and deduplication to reduce storage costs are nothing new. Tape drives have used compression for decades to increase backup data densities on tape while many modern deduplicating backup appliances use compression and deduplication to also reduce backup data stores. Even a select number of existing HDD-based storage arrays use data compression and deduplication to minimize data stores for large amounts of file data stored in archives or on networked attached file servers.
Toward the end of April Wikibon's David Floyer posted an article on the topic of server SANs entitled "The Rise of Server SANs" which generated a fair amount of attention and was even the focus of a number of conversations that I had at this past week's Symantec Vision 2014 conference in Las Vegas. However I have to admit, when I first glanced at some of the forecasts and charts that were included in that piece, I thought Wikibon was smoking pot and brushed it off. But after having had some lengthy conversations with attendees at Symantec Vision, I can certainly see why Wikibon made some of the claims that it did.
VMware® VMmark® has quickly become a performance benchmark to which many organizations turn to quantify how many virtual machines (VMs) they can realistically expect to host and then perform well on a cluster of physical servers. Yet a published VMmark score for a specified hardware configuration may overstate or, conversely, fail to fully reflect the particular solution's VM consolidation and performance capabilities. The HP ProLiant BL660c published VMmark performance benchmarks using a backend HP 3PAR StoreServ 7450 all-flash array provide the relevant, real-world results that organizations need to achieve maximum VM density levels, maintain or even improve VM performance as they scale and control costs as they grow.
Delivering always-on application availability accompanied by the highest levels of capacity, management and performance are the features that historically distinguish high end storage arrays from other storage arrays available on the market. But even these arrays struggle to easily deliver on a fundamental data center task: migrating data from one physical array to another. The introduction of the storage virtual array feature into the new HP XP7 dramatically eases this typically complex task as it facilitates data consolidations and migrations by migrating entire storage virtual arrays from one physical array frame to another while simplifying array management in the process.
DCIG is pleased to announce the March 30 release of the DCIG 2014-15 Flash Memory Storage Array Buyer's Guide that weights, scores and ranks more than 130 features of thirty-nine (39) different storage arrays from twenty (20) different storage providers.
Many changes have taken place in the data center storage marketplace in the 14 months since the release of the inaugural DCIG 2013 Flash Memory Storage Array Buyer's Guide. This blog entry highlights a few of those changes based on DCIG's research for the forthcoming DCIG 2014-15 Flash Memory Storage Array Buyer's Guide.
In this final blog entry from our interview with Nimbus Data CEO and Founder Thomas Isakovich, we discuss his company's latest product, the Gemini X-series. We explore the role of the Flash Director and how it Gemini X-series appeals to enterprises as well as cloud service providers.
In this second blog entry from our interview with Nimbus Data CEO and Founder Thomas Isakovich, we discuss microsecond latencies and how the recently announced Gemini X-series scale-out all-flash platform performs against the competition.
In 2014, high-density flash memory storage such as the 4TB Viking Technology αlpha SSD will accelerate the flash-based disruption of the storage industry and of the data center. Technology providers that engage in a fresh high-density flash-storage-enabled rethinking of their products will empower savvy data center architects to substantially improve the performance, capacity and efficiency of their data centers. Businesses will benefit by reducing the cost of running their IT infrastructures while increasing their capacity to serve customers and generate profits.
Recognized as an innovator in storage system technology, Thomas Isakovich sat down with DCIG to discuss the development, capabilities, and innovation in Nimbus Data's latest release: the Gemini X. In this first blog entry, he guides us through the development of the X-series, and where he sees it fitting into the current market.
The key for many enterprises today is to identify a storage provider that delivers the best of what next generation hybrid storage arrays have to offer. However, technology alone is not enough for enterprise organizations. This storage provider also has to meet internal financial stability and long-term viability requirements as well as deliver enterprise-class technical service and support.
One of the most common requests that DCIG gets from its readers is to include the actual cost of storage systems in its Buyer's Guides. The reason DCIG continues to decline that request and only includes starting list prices is that most storage systems may be configured in multiple different ways. This makes it impossible to arrive at a definitive price point. The second part in DCIG's interview series with iXsystem's Jordan Hubbard illustrates this point as he discusses how the availability of multiple different storage configurations and services trumps a cookie cutter approach to buying storage every time.
Anyone who managed IT infrastructures in the late 1990's or early 2000's probably still remembers how external storage arrays were largely a novelty reserved for high end enterprises with big data centers and deep pockets. Fast forward to today and a plethora of storage arrays exist in a variety of shapes and sizes at increasingly low price points. As such it can be difficult to distinguish between them. To help organizations sort them out, my blog entry today provides a primer on the types of storage arrays currently available on the market.
Anytime DCIG prepares a Buyer's Guide – whether a net new Buyer's Guide or a refresh of an existing Buyer's Guide – it always uncovers a number of interesting trends and developments about that technology. Therefore it is no surprise (at least to us anyway) that as DCIG prepares to release its DCIG 2014 Enterprise Midrange Array Buyer's Guide that it observed a number of interesting data points about enterprise midrange arrays. As DCIG looks forward to releasing this Buyer's Guide, we wanted to share some of these observations and insights that we gained as we prepared this Guide as well as why we reached some of the conclusions that we did.
Earlier this week Cisco officially became a storage provider when it announced its intention to acquire privately held WHIPTAIL Technologies. While this may have come as a surprise to some, rumors that Cisco was looking to acquire a storage company were already circulating in 2012 at Storage Networking World (SNW) as I discussed in a blog entry last year. So now that Cisco is in the process of becoming a storage company, what are the ramifications of this change in its product offerings?
As we were researching arrays for inclusion in the DCIG 2013 Flash Memory Storage Array Buyer's Guide we kept encountering an intriguing group of companies that had designed–or were developing–storage arrays from the ground up to realize the performance benefits of an all flash array, but with storage capacities and price points that would bring the benefits of flash memory storage to a broader range of businesses. The resulting hybrid storage arrays achieve this balance of performance, capacity, and cost by intelligently combining flash memory with large capacity disk drives in a single storage system.
