Making A Living at DAZ3DEvery so often someone asks if this is possible, how hard this is, and how to do it. I'm writing this journal entry so I can just link them back to it instead of typing the same post or forum PM repeatedly.Making A Living at DAZ3D by SickleYield
I'm putting these down in the order they are usually asked, not in the order I think they should be asked.
Q: How much money can I make?
A: I make a good living for a single person in the Western USA selling in the DAZ market. I also sell at Renderosity, but I would describe that as a "hobby" or "bonus" income; it would be hard to do without it, but it's not what pays the rent every month, either. For the most part you will make back according to the time you put in. Only a few top artists get into six figures in American dollars in our market, and they are the biggest names who sell the biggest products.
Q: Can I do it in my spare time?
A: Not if you want to make a living. We do have hobbyist artists at DAZ3D, for whom this is a second i

Eat Ice Cream, Without the Cow
When the summer heat's on full blast, there's nothing better than a super-sized scoop of ice cream — but some of us just can't stomach it.

We corralled a group of testers to sample ice creams created for the vegans, lactose-intolerant and dairy-allergic among us. In our very unscientific taste test, we provided basic vanilla and a second flavor (when available), and asked testers to rate each from one to five stars. Our selections won some oohs and aahs — as well as a couple of blecchs.

Breyers Lactose Free

The scoop: Breyers made its all-natural vanilla a little friendlier for the lactose-intolerant crowd by adding the lactase enzyme, which makes it easier to digest lactose, the main sugar found in milk. It's made from cow's milk, so it's a no-go for vegans and those allergic to dairy.

The sweet spot: This one was the hands-down winner, with many testers claiming it tasted just like the real thing. Bonus points for the trademark vanilla bean specks.

The meltdown: Pickier taste buds won't like that this one comes only in plain ol' vanilla.

Soy Delicious Purely Decadent

The scoop: Soybeans are the main ingredient here, making this a good option for almost anyone — it's organic, vegan-friendly and dairy- and lactose-free, plus it's low in fat. The dessert menu is extensive, with 15 flavors ranging from Swinging Anna Banana to Peanut Butter Zig Zag.

The sweet spot: This vanilla won over the vegan testers and had some fans among the dairy-eaters, too. The Raspberry a la Mode got even higher praise, with many testers returning for second scoops.

The meltdown: Unless you've got a serious sweet tooth, this one might have one spoonful of sugar too many; others thought they detected a hint of Play-Doh in the mix.

Tofutti

The scoop: One of the original soy-based options on the market, Tofutti got high marks from our diet-restricted testers. Please your palate with eight standard flavors, such as Mint Chocolate Chip and Vanilla Fudge.

The sweet spot: Our testers liked the vanilla's creamy texture but loved the aptly named Better Pecan.

The meltdown: This one melted a little too quickly, and some testers deemed it another overly sweet concoction.

Rice Dream

The scoop: Brown rice and water don't add up to our idea of ice cream, but Rice Dream aims to make it appetizing with 12 varieties, including Carob Almond and Cappuccino, that work for most dietary restrictions.

The sweet spot: The Cocoa Marble Fudge tasted like homemade — rich, chocolaty and delicious.

The meltdown: We weren't wowed by the vanilla, and our testers found it thin, grainy and (again) Play-Doh-esque — "an acquired taste," one tester noted.

LaLoo's Goat's Milk

The scoop: This low-lactose dessert uses goat's milk in lieu of cow's milk and comes in eight fancy flavors, including Chocolate Cabernet and Black Mission Fig (all produced with ingredients from Sonoma County, Calif.). It's not for vegans.

The sweet spot: A few liked the freshness of this one and said it would be good with fruit. We give kudos to LaLoo for dishing up something different.

The meltdown: Turns out the tangy flavor of goat's cheese doesn't translate so well to ice cream — the aftertaste, texture and flavor turned off most of our testers. Our favorite quote: "Just like eating mutton." Mmmmm.

Posters showing pictures of happy Cambodian babies adopted into American homes, were used to entice families to offer up their children. Chea Kim said mothers in her area knew they could receive money for their children. She convinced some them that they could not take care of their children; others brought their babies to her. She never told mothers that their babies would be going to America. The orphanage would pay Chea Kim $50 for a baby. She, in turn, would give a mother about $15 for a child, she said.
One of the mothers who was given $15 for her child was Main Dim, whose child became Rauschenberger's son. He was the youngest of five children and his mother was desperate to feed her family.
"Someone came and told me that if I give the baby to the orphanage, they give you money. I cried when I gave away the baby. I cried," she said. She said she was told her child would stay at the orphanage.
"20/20" also found Moung Thy, a former orphanage director, who claims Galindo's assistant paid him more than $300 for each of the 10 children he delivered.
Galindo claims that none of her staff ever approached women to purchase their children. But the U.S. government uncovered receipts that it says lists the expenses for the trafficking of babies. One cost was $200 for "nurse care." A U.S. investigator told "20/20" he interviewed two Cambodian baby recruiters who worked for Galindo. Both independently said the "nurse care" fee was code for paying off birth mothers.
Galindo said the fees were paid on her behalf to ensure that the children were well cared for. U.S. agents also found a note in Galindo's home, in her handwriting that says "freelance locators are in the countryside." And just above it, Galindo had written "who brings kids in."
Galindo says she was simply documenting her concern and planned to report this to authorities. "I was, in fact, the watchdog and trying to do my best to help bring the problems to the attention of the Cambodian government," she said.
But a young Cambodian mother, Meas Bopha, told "20/20" Galindo came to her home in 1997 and tried to convince her to sell her three babies for $700. Galindo says she is a liar.
Mosley and her daughter, Camryn, today know the painful truth that Camryn was never the orphan she was alleged to be, but a child recruited from a poor, yet happy family. Although her parents had died, she was living with a sister and had an extended family.
Recently, they made a pilgrimage to Camryn's hometown. "I just miss my country and just want to go back and see my family just to visit," said Camryn.
In 1999, Mosley arrived in Cambodia to adopt what she was told was a 6- or 7-year-old orphan named Songkea. Mosley met her new daughter for the first time at Galindo's apartment in Phnom Penh. When Mosley asked to visit the orphanage where the girl she renamed Camryn had supposedly been living for four years prior to the adoption, she says Galindo discouraged them from going.
Against Galindo's advice, Mosley says, she took Camryn back to the orphanage at Siem Riep. Once there, Camryn suddenly ushered her mom back to the car and in her native tongue directed their driver down dirt roads and out into the countryside.

Singapore Signs Another MoU with Colombia
This time, Colombia will tap on Singapore´s experience and best practices to improve Bogota´s public and private transportation system. http://www.rikvin.com/press-releases/another-mou-colombia/
Singapore (PRWEB) June 28, 2012
Shortly after signing an MoU (Memorandum of Understanding) to induce greater economic collaboration between Colombia and Singapore, the two economies have signed another MoU to improve Bogota´s public and private transport system.
The most recent agreement, that was signed between the Ministry of Transport of the Republic of Colombia and IE Singapore, will see the formation of a panel of Singapore transportation experts to study Bogota´s traffic conditions. The panel will then propose a Traffic Demand Management (TDM) action plan which consists of policies, strategies and infrastructure recommendations to help the rapidly urbanizing city sustainably develop its public and private transportation system.
Singapore company formation specialists Rikvin is confident that the latest transportation MoU will pave the way for more collaboration between Singapore and Colombia, as well as other rapidly-developing economies keen to build up an efficient transportation system in spite of limited land resources.
"On the back of the MoU between the National Business Association of Colombia (ANDI) and
IE Singapore (International Enterprise Singapore), the latest MoU is indicative of Singapore´s role not only as thought leaders but an exemplary model that should be emulated even by subject matter experts," said Mr. Satish Bakhda, Rikvin´s Head of Operations.
"This not only positions Singapore favorably; it will bring new related projects in Singapore´s way. This is in turn bodes well for our businesses and pave the way for a mutually beneficial exchange of information and best practices between both economies and other economies looking to learn from Singapore´s rapid infrastructural growth model," added Mr. Bakhda.
Moving forward, Singapore and the Latin American and Caribbean region plan to collaborate further in areas such as urban planning, logistics and education.
Established in 1998, Rikvin has since partnered with thousands of investors, entrepreneurs and professionals in their pursuit to access business opportunities overseas. Rikvin´s areas of expertise include company incorporation, offshore company setup, accounting, taxation and other related corporate services. Rikvin is also a licensed employment agency with the Ministry of Manpower (MOM) and offers a full spectrum of Singapore work visa services for foreign professionals who wish to relocate to Singapore.

COLUMBIA CITY — For five of the last six years, Tom Rethlake has served as chairman for the Whitley County Board of Commissioners.
Rethlake has announced he will be stepping down from the position.
He will remain on the board as a commissioner.
Commissioner Don Amber will take over the duties as chairman.
According to Rethlake, the county has a policy that a chairman generally only serves for two years at a time.
He said he served the past year, the third of this term, because Amber was still employed with Emergency Medical Services, but with that no longer being the case he felt it was time for a change.

New twist in BMW hit-and-run case
NEW DELHI: In a new twist to the BMW hit-and-run case trial here, a medical expert on Thursday told the court that a blood test on prime accused Sanjeev Nanda just after the bloody accident eight years ago had shown that he was under the influence of liquor.
"As per traffic rules, a person is under the influence of liquor if the blood contains 30 mg or above per 100 ml of blood, whereas in the present case it was much above it. As per my report, it was 115 mg/ml," Dr. Madhulika Sharma told Additional Sessions Judge Vinod Kumar.
Dr. Sharma, then a resident doctor at the All India Institute of Medical Sciences here, had performed the "blood alcohol estimation test" on Sanjeev Nanda, grandson of former Navy Chief S.M. Nanda, on January 10, 1999, following his arrest by the police allegedly for mowing down six people with his black BMW car near Lodhi Hotel .
The doctor was questioned on Thursday by the defence, which had sought an opportunity to cross-examine her contending that her questioning was necessary in view of the surfacing of some incriminating evidence during the testimony of eye-witness Sunil Kulkarni.
Dr. Sharma, who had earlier recorded her statement as a prosecution witness in 2000, stuck to her stand on Thursday and reiterated that the alcohol content in Nanda's blood clearly established that he was inebriated at the time of the accident.
Her testimony assumes importance as the prosecution has claimed that Nanda, who was at the steering of the car, had run over six persons in the wee hours of the fateful day in a drunken state. --PTI

Thunderstorm in Chesapeake Bay
As usual, it depends. If you sail long enough on the Bay, you'll get to experience a few of them. A couple notes:
- if anchored somewhere, let out more scope, secure all canvas, stuff on deck, etc. Take note of any boats anchored around you. Think through action plans in case you or others drag.
- if underway, shorten sail, don foul wx gear, harnesses, etc. Take note of other vessels in the area, take careful note of how much searoom you have to maneuver and plan ahead for actions as the wind hits and changes through the storm.
Most t-storms on the Bay are pretty short lived. Only time we got a little concerned was when our dinghy went airborne and started pinwheeling on the painter. Was a little disconcerting. Then the storm passed and the CGG showed up looking for a boat that had called mayday.
BTW - we're at HHN in Herring. Would love to chat more. Will be at the boat this Sat finishing up the stanchion rebed project. :-(

HILLSBORO, Ore. Volunteers converged on the Hillsboro home of a Korean War veteran Thursday and helped him with home repairs as part of a national effort to help veterans with housing problems.
Chuck Reynolds, Sr., a Korean War vet and single father, lost his job in 2012 and his home has a backlog of much needed repairs, said Ben Owens a spokesperson for the Home Depot Foundation that organized the event.
Volunteers helped Reynolds with some painting, deck and fence repairs, landscaping work and an energy efficiency upgrade.
Some 9,000 Home Depot employees will fan out across the country over the next several months as they take on 350 volunteer projects that help veterans stay in their home, said Owens.
Owens said on any given night in 2012, 62,619 veterans were homeless in the U.S.

1943 Tottori earthquake
|September 10, 1943
|Origin time
|35°28′N 134°05′E / 35.47°N 134.09°ECoordinates: 35°28′N 134°05′E / 35.47°N 134.09°E
|Areas affected
|Max. intensity
The Tottori earthquake (鳥取地震 Tottori jishin?) occurred in Tottori prefecture, Japan at 17:36 local time on September 10, 1943. Although the earthquake occurred during World War II, information about the disaster was surprisingly uncensored, and relief volunteers and supplies came from many parts of the Japanese empire, including Manchukuo.
The Tottori earthquake had its epicenter offshore from Ketaka District, now part of Tottori, and registered a magnitude of 7.2 on the Richter Scale. The seismic intensity was recorded as 6 in Tottori city, and 5 as far away as Okayama on the Inland Sea.[1] The center of Tottori city, with many antiquated buildings was the hardest hit, with an estimated 80% of its structures damaged or destroyed. As the earthquake struck in the evening when most kitchens had fires lit in preparation for the evening meal, fires broke out in 16 locations around the city. With water mains damaged, citizens formed bucket brigades to prevent fires from spreading; however, the death toll was 1083 killed, including numerous Zainichi Koreans working in the nearby Aragane Copper Mines. The earthquake is noteworthy for seismologists due to reports of the appearance of earthquake lights immediately preceding the main shock.[2]
Two magnitude 6.2 earthquakes had occurred in the same area earlier that year on March 4 and 5, but did not do significant damage.[3]

Cool Name of the Week: Pierre
I'm dedicating this column to a lovely family I know, who is mourning the loss of their beautiful Pierre. I was never fortunate enough to know Pierre in real life, but I saw him grow up on Facebook. He had a soft, gentle smile that really lit up his whole face—and from the stories his mother Mary regaled us with, it was clear he was thriving thanks to the loving care of his family, after spending his first years in a Haitian orphanage. And it was also clear, from the numerous posts on Mary's Facebook page, that Pierre's life has touched the hearts of hundreds of people from around the world. I know my words won't mean much in the face of their grief, but his name was in my heart today.
Pierre is the Frenchified version of Peter, and it means rock—a nice, solid classic for a boy. While Peter has largely stayed in the top 200 baby names for the past century, Pierre has zig-zagged all over the map, and has even moved out of the top 1000 altogether. But I think it's a lovely way to pay homage to a Peter, but with a little French twist.
I'm not sure what middle name Mary and Doug chose for their son—or if they kept the name he was given in the orphanage. Pierre pairs beautifully with other French names like Blaise, Julian, Noel or Warren. Or try something like Valentin, Hudson, Sebastian, James or Leo. They're all lovely names—just like Pierre.Add a Comment

Inspectors General:
Opportunities to Enhance Independence and Accountability
GAO-07-1089T: Published: Jul 11, 2007. Publicly Released: Jul 11, 2007.
Additional Materials:
- Highlights Page:
- Full Report:
- Accessible Text:
(202) 512-9471
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
The federal inspectors general (IG) play a critical role in addressing mismanagement of scarce taxpayer dollars. In the coming years, as we enter a period of escalating deficits and increasingly limited resources, GAO believes that the greatest single source of savings will come from bold, decisive efforts to transform what government does and how it does business, and to hold it accountable for results. Therefore, it is important that an independent, objective, and reliable IG structure be in place to ensure adequate audit and investigative coverage of federal programs and operations. This statement offers GAO's views on (1) the principles of independence and how they apply to IG offices, (2) leveraging IG work as a part of overall federal oversight, (3) structural streamlining of IG offices for resource efficiencies, and (4) matters discussed in a GAO forum on IG issues. This statement draws on provisions of the IG Act, professional auditing standards, prior GAO reports and testimony, and information reported by the IGs.
The independence of the IGs is key to the effectiveness of their offices. The IGs, in their statutory role of providing oversight of their agencies' operations, represent a unique hybrid of external and internal reporting responsibilities. The IG Act requires the IGs to report the results of their work both externally to the Congress and internally to the agency head. It also provides certain independence protection to the IGs. This protection includes specifying that agency heads and other officials may not prevent or prohibit the IGs from performing any audit or investigation and that IGs are to have access to all agency documents and records. In addition, IGs are appointed either by the President with the advice and consent of the Senate or by their agency heads with removal only by the President or the agency head. The work of the IGs is coordinated through the President's Council on Integrity and Efficiency and the Executive Council on Integrity and Efficiency, which were created by executive order to enhance the work of the IGs. In prior testimony GAO has recommended establishing a statutory IG Council with a permanent mission to address federal oversight challenges and risks. GAO also believes that effective ongoing coordination of the federal audit and oversight efforts of GAO and the IGs is more critical than ever. In May of this year the Comptroller General hosted a meeting with the IGs for the principal purpose of improving federal oversight coordination. The Comptroller General has also suggested the need for creating a more formal mechanism or council for the coordination of audit activities on a governmentwide basis. The structure of this council could be similar in concept to the Joint Financial Management Improvement Program, whose principals meet to discuss issues of mutual concern to promote governmentwide financial management. In a prior report GAO presented the possible benefits of streamlining the structure of IG offices to increase the use of limited IG resources through consolidation of their offices. The benefits of consolidating the smallest offices of IGs appointed by their agency heads with the larger offices of IGs appointed by the President include immediate access to a broader range of resources to use in dealing with issues requiring technical expertise or areas of critical need. In addition, consolidation would strengthen the ability of IGs to improve the allocation and use of scarce financial resources. In May 2006, at the request of this committee, the Comptroller General convened a panel of recognized leaders to discuss the possible benefits of proposed legislative changes to the IG Act. The panel members generally supported advanced notification to the Congress of the reasons for removal of an IG, separate IG budget line items, a funding mechanism for an IG Council, the need for IG pay and bonus issues to be addressed, and specific investigative and law enforcement authorities for the IGs.

Three years ago I suddenly had trouble walking. Within 3 weeks I was falling and couldn't control my right leg. I had an MRI and discovered a brain tumor the size of a grapefruit. It was removed and after rehab I was able to walk again. A year later, after a checkup another tumor appeared and was operated on. This time because of location the surgeon couldn't take it all out and I also had gamma knife radiation on the other part. After, I felt fine but in another checkup this year, another tumor appeared and was surgically removed. I am planning on having gamma knife to burn some tiny tumors. I feel good and have no obvious symptoms.

I was diagnosed with a benign brain tumor called an acoustic neuroma. I had a trans lab surgery last year to remove most of the tumor. If it grows back I will have gamma knife to kill the rest.

text: JOHANNESBURG, South Africa - Oscar Pistorius walked out of a South African court Friday a free man â?? for now â?? after a magistrate agreed to release him on bail ahead of his premeditated murder trial over the shooting death of his girlfriend. But even as he was he was driven away from court and chased by videographers and photographers, questions continued to hound the Paralympian about what actually happened when he opened fire on Valentineâ??s Day inside his home and killed Reeva Steenkamp. Chief Magistrate Desmond Nair, who agreed to bail with harsh restrictions for the athlete, expressed his own doubts about Pistoriusâ?? story. Those questions, highlighted at a four-day bail hearing that at times foreshadowed his coming trial, come from Pistoriusâ?? account that he felt threatened and mistook Steenkamp for an intruder when he fired the four shots at her in his bathroom. â??Why would (Pistorius) venture further into danger?â?ť Nair asked. Pistoriusâ?? supporters shouted â??Yes!â?ť when Nair made his decision after a nearly two hour explanation of his ruling to a packed courtroom in Pretoria, South Africaâ??s capital. Yet when prosecutors and the defense said they agreed to bail terms, Nair more than doubled those conditions for the 26-year-old runner to be free ahead of trial. Nair set the bail at 1 million rand ($113,000), with $11,300 in cash up front and proof that the rest is available. The magistrate said Pistorius must hand over his passports and also turn in any other guns that he owns. Pistorius also cannot leave the district of Pretoria without the permission of his probation officer, Nair said, nor can he take drugs or drink alcohol. Pistoriusâ?? family members hugged each other after the decision was read, with tears in their eyes. â??We are relieved at the fact that Oscar got bail today but at the same time we are in mourning for the death of Reeva with her family,â?ť said Pistoriusâ?? uncle, Arnold Pistorius. â??As a family, we know Oscarâ??s version of what happened on that tragic night and we know that that is the truth and that will prevail in the coming court case.â?ť Sharon Steenkamp, Reevaâ??s cousin, had said earlier that the family wouldnâ??t be watching the bail decision and hadnâ??t been following the hearing in Pretoria. â??It doesnâ??t make any difference to the fact that we are without Reeva,â?ť she told The Associated Press. Nair set Pistoriusâ?? next court appearance for June 4. The Olympian left the courthouse in a silver Land Rover, sitting in the rear, just more than an hour after the magistrate imposed the bail conditions. The vehicle, tailed by motorcycles carrying television cameramen aboard, later pulled into the home of Pistoriusâ?? uncle. Pistorius left behind more than a dozen international and local television crews at the red-brick courthouse. Itâ??s a sign of the growing global fascination with a case involving an inspirational athlete and his beautiful, law-school graduate girlfriend, who was a model and reality TV show contestant. During Fridayâ??s long session in Pretoria Magistrateâ??s Court, Pistorius alternately wept and appeared solemn and more composed, especially toward the end as Nair criticized police procedures in the case and as a judgment in Pistoriusâ?? favor appeared imminent. He showed no reaction as he was granted bail. Before the hearing, Pistoriusâ?? longtime coach Ampie Louw said he hoped to put his runner back into his morning and afternoon training routine if he got bail. â??The sooner he can start working the better,â?ť said Louw, who was the person who convinced the double-amputee to take up track as a teenager a decade ago. But he acknowledged Pistorius could be â??heartbrokenâ?ť and unwilling to immediately pull on his carbon-fiber running blades, the reason behind his â??Blade Runnerâ?ť nickname. There is one place, however, where Nair ordered that Pistorius cannot go: His upscale home in a gated community in the eastern suburbs of Pretoria, where he killed Steenkamp in the predawn hours of Feb. 14. Pistorius said in a sworn statement to the court that he shot his girlfriend accidentally, believing she was an intruder in his house. He described â??a sense of terror rushing overâ?ť him and feeling vulnerable because he stood only on his stumps before opening fire. Prosecutors, however, say he intended to kill Steenkamp, saying the shooting followed a loud argument between the two. Yet despite poking holes in Pistoriusâ?? statement â?? they questioned why he didnâ??t notice his girlfriend missing despite walking past the bed and brought up incidents that they said highlighted his temper â?? their case unraveled through testimony by the policeâ??s lead investigator in the case, Detective Warrant Officer Hilton Botha. Botha, who faces seven charges of attempted murder in an unrelated incident, was removed from the case Thursday. His replacement, the nationâ??s top detective Vinesh Moonoo, stopped briefly by the hearing Friday. Prosecution spokesman Medupe Simasiku said later Friday: â??Weâ??re still confident in our case.â?ť While Nair leveled harsh criticism at Botha for â??errorsâ?ť and â??blunders,â?ť he said one man does not represent an investigation and that the state could not be expected to put all â??the pieces of the puzzleâ?ť together in such a short time. The magistrate questioned whether Pistorius would be a flight risk and be prepared to go â??ducking and divingâ?ť around the world when he stood to lose a fortune in cash, cars, property and other assets. Pistorius faced the sternest bail requirements in South Africa because of the seriousness of the charge. His defense lawyers had to prove that he would not flee the country, would not interfere with witnesses or the case and his release would not cause public unrest. They also had to show â??exceptionalâ?ť circumstances for his release as well, something Nair said could be found in the â??weakâ?ť case offered by prosecutors. Yet the magistrate still anticipated the shape of the stateâ??s case at trial. Nair said he had serious questions about Pistoriusâ?? account: Why he didnâ??t try to locate his girlfriend on fearing an intruder was in the house? Why he didnâ??t try to determine who was in the toilet? and why he would venture into perceived â??dangerâ?ť - the bathroom area - when he could have taken other steps to ensure his safety? Touching those unanswered questions, Nair said: â??There are improbabilities which need to be explored.â?ť

DeSoto motorcycle group spreads wings
Ken and Betty Tarver have received ample enjoyment simply from being members of their local Gold Wing Road Riders Association.
They started out in Jackson before joining the DeSoto chapter eight years ago.
At the beginning of January, though, the Tarvers took over as directors of the DeSoto Wings, an organization whose membership numbers are approaching 75.
"We're a tight-knit group," said Ken, a 61-year-old resident of Olive Branch. "We do a lot of things together."
Mostly on wheels, as a majority of members seek out adventure on the touring motorcycle manufactured by Honda. One of 12 chapters in Mississippi, the DeSoto Wings are designated by "MS-Y."
Every so often, district rallies are held in nearly Louisiana, Alabama and Tennessee, yet Tarver and a small group that includes Hernando's Butch and Mary Norman, are set to embark for next week's Wing Ding 34 at the Allen County War Memorial Coliseum in Ft. Wayne, Ind.
"It's the one big rally that GWRRA puts on each year," Tarver said. "Gives everybody an opportunity to come in and see old friends from around the country. It will be a large crowd from Canada and some other countries."
The 2012 event is going to be the Normans' third since joining in 2008. They attended previous Wing Dings in Knoxville and Tulsa.
"It's a great organization of people that you get to socialize with," Butch said. "It gives you some place to go, and you feel like it's something worthwhile that you have done when you do get together."
Locally, the DeSoto Wings have a monthly meeting and an ice cream social. There's also at least one or two "Saturday rides" scheduled. Other times, they're at a moment's notice.
"One of the members will call up and say, 'Hey, I'd kind of like to go to Oxford to get a sandwich.' And we just decide to go," Norman, 68, said. "It's got to where when I say, 'I think I'm going to go,' she (Mary) says, 'When are we leaving?' When she gets her days off from the hospital, she pretty much goes on every ride that I go on."
The GWRRA is proactive when it comes to safety education.
"We have people that are dedicated to rider education that gives talks, seminars and actual riding course classes," Tarver said. "Reminders to keep us aware of hazards that we can encounter."
During a Saturday each May as part of Motorcycle Awareness month, the DeSoto Wings converge on the Mississippi Welcome Center on Interstate 55 south of the Hernando exit.
"We park a number of motorcycles there to draw in some interest and hand out brochures about motorcycle awareness concerning the general driving public," Tarver said. "Keeping an eye out for us — looking out for our safety, as we kind of watch out for theirs too."
For more information on the DeSoto Wings, call (662) 890-9422.

As the Executive Director of a growing grassroots nonprofit charity, I do my best to focus every donor dollar toward helping hurting hearts heal and changing futures. I heavily rely upon volunteers and gift in kind donations for our technology needs. With the help of a new volunteer we had taken a donated server and connected it to our desktops, wifi and printers. But the fail rate was 100% and always when our volunteer was out of town. On the third day of none of our five computers being able to print or "talk" to each other, I came to Gary begging for his help. He offered to come see what was going on, and in a matter of less than an hour, he and John were able to get our entire office back communicating and printing again. Gary Gray is a hero to our volunteers and staff! Gary made our office technology run smoothly so that our counselors and volunteers can focus on making a difference in the lives of victims of abuse, children who are victims of crimes and human trafficking victims. Thank you so much Concerto Networks and Gary Gray for helping us heal hurting hearts!Roy Wooten Executive Director Shield-Bearer Counseling Centers
In the past we have worked with technology service providers that did not take the time to listen and get to know our business. I knew Gary Gray - our Concerto Networks solution provider, through Cy-Fair Rotary Club. Gary took the time and care to understand our law office's needs and business objectives and made suggestions for business solutions based on those observations. He built us a new server, and moved our phone to VoIP. He also provided data backup and anti-virus solutions. As one of Concerto Networks' many legal clients, I feel that they truly understand the unique technology needs of law offices. Concerto Networks gives us an unparalleled level of service and support. Gary's expertise and knowledge along with his focus on helping us grow our business, gives us peace of mind in knowing that our technology is in good hands. We really feel like Gary is part of our team and value his high caliber support!Lloyd Culp Attorney at Law Culp and Little Law Firm
I used to take care of my own office technology. If I had a computer issue, I called a computer guy my father used. In 2006, I was referred to Gary Gray from Concerto Networks. I've been very happy with Concerto and previously I did not have an ongoing relationship with an IT support company.Paul Shouse President US Lawns of North Houston
Our internet went down on Monday morning. We called different IT companies, with no response. On Tuesday afternoon, I called Concerto Networks. Gary came to our office in one hour, and got our network back up and running in less than an hour. You did a fantastic job. Thank you so much for saving us!Dr. Syed H. Reza MD Neurology Clinic
