Where in the world?
Where has Tiff been since Italy?
Good question…. I've been exploring my creative side and finding new ways to express my passion for travel.
I waisted about a week feeling sorry for myself when we returned from Italy. Oh… how I love Italy! I used jet-lag as an excuse, but in reality was feeling a little lost with out a dream to pursue. I am deeply grateful to have had the opportunity to travel to Italy. It was definitely a dream come true!!! However, I'm not crazy about defining it as "a trip of a lifetime". I love travel so much that I can't imagine only making a trip like that once in my life. Paul Kurtz, a friend and fellow traveler, told me that the trip of a lifetime will only come when we go to heaven, which put my wander lust into perspective and gave me permission to dream up another adventure.
One problem always stands in the way of travel for me. Money. So, I decided to take inventory and focus on generating an income from the things I love.
Tiffany Eckhardt ~ traveler.writer.photographer
My first project: set up an Etsy shop to sell prints from my travels. I have always loved photography and have taken photos in New Orleans, Memphis, Clarksdale, Austin, Texas, Washington DC and now Italy. Why not share my passion for travel and promote my favorite destinations through photographs taken along my journey?
I enlisted the help from my friend Michele Savoldi at Columbus ImPRessions. Michele created a new logo, business cards, banner for my Etsy store and postcards using my photos. We refined my branding message into "traveler.writer.photographer", encompassing my passion to promote travel through various blogs and social media platforms, making videos and photography.
On Friday May 6th the The Green Owl in Urbana, Oh will display my "bicycle and other unique rides" prints during their First Friday event. In celebration of bicycle month, I have put together my bicycle prints from New Orleans, Italy, Clarksdale and even my own back yard. In the month of July my Italian prints will be displayed at The Depot Coffeehouse, also in Urbana, Oh. I am really excited to launch my new venture with two really exciting exhibits.
Weekend ReTweat
In the past month Weekend ReTweat has retweated The Cherry Valley Lodge and The Glass House, with two upcoming adventures scheduled. We continue to have a great time promoting B&Bs, Inns and retreats using our collective social media platforms and are branching out to promote area attractions as well. The trip to The Glass House included a canopy tour at Hocking Hills Canopy Tours and a hike led by Robb Landon. Check out our Facebook Page for all the pics, videos and articles written about our trips!
The newest development for Weekend ReTweat: a partnership with The Tristate Roadtrip! We will be offering ReTweats to destinations within the five county corridor. I will be working for The Tristate Roadtrip developing their social media presence, creating videos for their destinations and improving the business listings on their website; another real exciting opportunity for me! I love meeting with Linda Linham from Tristateroadtrip! We have so many ideas for this project.
Ideas & projects ~ where will they take me?!
I have a few other miscellaneous projects… I am currently developing a social media strategy for a local small business. I was asked to help produce a short film… uncharted territory for me! I am also helping with Team Zoe, mainly with the Facebook page and marketing Zoe Fest. Zoe is a nine year old girl with a rare brain tumor (DIPG). It has been sad to watch her go through treatment, but rewarding to use my skills for good and definitely a reminder how precious life is.
I want to pursue ideas for a travel book, produce more travel videos and develop more partnerships in the travel industry. I don't know where in the world these ideas will take me or what is around the corner, but the journey is good! I can only hope it leads to more travel, exploring the world God created and developing new friendships worldwide. I am ready to dream up another adventure! Where in the world should I go next? Leave a comment if you have a suggestion.
Life is a journey, come travel with me!

Video: President Obama Lauds Fiscal Cliff Vote
WASHINGTON, D.C. (USA Today) - A divided Republican House passed the Senate's "fiscal cliff" agreement Tuesday night, following a tense day of GOP protests that the plan does not do enough to rein in federal spending.
President Obama lauded the vote, saying it averts a series of tax hikes and spending cuts that could have plunged the nation back into recession.
Obama also said the deal is "just in step" in a comprehensive effort to reduce the nation's debt, and that he had wanted a larger agreement. "That failure comes with a cost."
Obama, who pledged to reduce the national debt in part by raising taxes on the wealthy, said he would continue efforts to reduce the federal debt while investing in the nation's economic development.
Appearing with Obama: Vice President Joe Biden, a key negotiator in last-minute fiscal cliff talks.
Immediately after his comments, the White House announced that Obama would fly overnight to Hawaii to re-join his family on their end-of-year vacation. Obama had returned to Washington from Hawaii on Thursday for fiscal cliff talks.
House Democrats provide the winning margin for the plan that stopped the fiscal cliff which technically took effect Tuesday with the new year.
Opponents said the plan's two-month delay of major spending cuts only sets up more budget battles in the weeks to come, as the nation bumps up against its $16.394 trillion debt ceiling.
For his part, Obama said the debt ceiling should not threaten future budget deals, saying the limit must be raised because "we can't not pay bills that we've already incurred."
Earlier in the evening, House Republicans could not muster enough support to add spending cuts to the bill that the Senate passed in the early morning hours of Tuesday. So GOP leaders put the Senate bill on the House floor as is.
House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Cal. said that while the plan doesn't do everything many people want, "it is a good way for us to have a happy start to a new year."
House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, and other Republican leaders - who at one time vowed to block any increase in taxes - did not speak during the debate.
The fiscal cliff legislation raises tax rates on incomes over $400,000 for individuals and $450,000 for couples, while retaining the George W. Bush-era tax cuts for Americans with lower incomes. It also features an extension of unemployment insurance..
One set of taxes is going up in 2013, however: The deal does not address the temporary payroll tax holiday that expired Tuesday. That tax is rising by 2 percentage points, back to its 2010 level.
Republican criticism of the Senate plan surfaced during a closed-door meeting hosted by House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, and House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, R-Va.
"The lack of spending cuts in the Senate bill was a universal concern amongst members in today's meeting," said Boehner spokesman Brendan Buck.
Cantor actually told colleagues he opposed the Senate bill, His statement was an early warning sign the Senate-passed bill faced problems in the House. House GOP leaders met throughout the day Tuesday in to come up with a plan on how to proceed.
After an early evening meeting of the Republican caucus, Rep. Scott Garrett, R-N.J., said there were two options for Republicans: continue with the Senate bill or amend it. "To the credit of leadership they are trying to get a sense of where we as a conference are on this," he said.
Amending the agreement would have thrown the whole deal into question as the Senate has already overwhelmingly approved the bill. The House also faced a noon Thursday deadline before the next Congress is sworn in - erasing all prior action and leaving Congress to start anew with roughly 100 new lawmakers entering the House and Senate.
Had the House not acted, President Obama and other Democrats have made clear they would blame the Republicans for the string of tax increases and defense and social cuts that come with it.
Rep. John Fleming, R-La., said members were concerned about rattling financial markets or being blamed for going over the cliff. Republicans were also coalescing around the idea to battle over spending cuts in upcoming budget fights, including a brewing February battle to raise the debt ceiling.
"Now the topic will be spending cuts," he said.
Earlier in the day, Vice President Biden returned to Capitol Hill to huddle with House Democrats, seeking to build support for the Senate proposal.
Biden attended a meeting of the House Democratic Caucus that stretched for three hours on Tuesday, outlining the details and addressing concerns from skeptical Democrats. Later, Biden expressed confidence about the fate of the Senate bill as he left the White House for a meatball-and-provolone sandwich at Potbelly's. "I think we're going to be OK," Biden said to a CNN camera crew nearby.
House Minority Leader Pelosi, D-Calif., said given the "uncharacteristically, very strong bipartisan" vote in the Senate, Republicans should move to schedule an up-or-down vote on the measure.

About the Practice
Practice Philosophy
From the initial phone contact and visit to my website, to the final post-surgery visit, my office staff and I will help you in your overall quest of aesthetic beauty.
I personally perform every aspect of the consultation with you- I do not delegate this to a nurse. I also see you at every visit after surgery to make sure that everything is healing smoothly. I feel strongly that this personalized attention is vital therapeutically, gives greater peace of mind for my patients, and results in optimal breasts after surgery.
My consultations can be quite long and detailed. We will talk about all options and all other surgical details. What is most important is communicating what you want in proportion to your physique, what is possible, and ending up with a long-term result that is pleasing to you.
I know a lot about the technical details of surgery, and I am very gifted in explaining to you what's going on in simple, concise, non-medical terms. It's the greatest compliment when patients choose me as their plastic surgeon because, they feel comfortable with me and understand what exactly is going on with their procedure.
The surgical procedure itself is done in a very safe manner, and I can accommodate you with a surgery center or hospital settings. I am very aware of post-surgery comfort, and I use special medications and procedures to reduce nausea, vomiting, and pain right after your procedure. Most of my patients are able to return to normal activities very quickly after surgery.
Any surgeon has his or her personal aesthetic biases, and we will be able to discuss them before surgery, as well as go over my previous before and after photos in the office, to make sure that what you are visualizing is possible.
I am passionate about plastic surgery, and I love helping patients achieve what they've only dreamed about. Please give me a call, and I look forward to helping you achieve your goals.

This high performance, full-foot fin is based upon the Slingshot technology coupled with the latest in materials innovation. The result is comfort and performance.
The blade is not directly attached to the front of the foot pocket. The fulcrum point is at the patented mid-foot location, known as the "mid-foot flex joint". This takes the strain off of the toes and ankle and allows the entire foot to be used. This results in incredible comfort.
To bridge the gap between blade and foot pocket an "armadillo" membrane is used. The "armadillo" is a patented, elongating membrane made out of super-elastic rubber. It serves two functions:
Accumulates elastic energy during each kick and gives it back at the end of the kick
Make a complete connection between foot pocket and blade, eliminating hydrodynamic gap that water can move through
Foot pocket:
Made with different thickness zones for better transmission of power from leg to fin
Integrated power transmission belt keeps pocket from stretching on power stroke
Low profile eliminates drag and turbulence
Large rubber side ribs are high enough to channel water flow down the blade without letting water "spill" over the edges
Materials used:
Blade made of customized techno-polymer alloy that has high spring effect and flexibility to maximize acceleration
Strong side ribs and rubber inserts on blade are made with a elastomeric compounds, customized for Aqua Lung to provide maximum elasticity
Foot pocket made with rubber of different elasticities
Fin Care and Maintenance
Care Before and During the Dive
Avoid standing your fins on the tips of the blades for any extended period of time.
Avoid hot temperatures and hot surfaces as these can damage the fin.
Avoid placing the fins in a car trunk on hot days as the temperatures inside car trunks can exceed the temperature tolerances of the fin and the blades may distort.
Care After the Dive:
Rinse thoroughly with fresh water and towel dry before final storage.
Store in a cool, dry and protected place out of direct sunlight.
Avoid any contact with alcohol, oil, gasoline, aerosols, or chemical solvents.
Do not expose any part to aerosol spray, as some aerosol propellants attack or degrade rubber and plastic materials.
Do not use any type of alcohol, solvent or petroleum based substances to clean or lubricate any part.
Do not store your equipment near any oil, gasoline, chemicals, or solvents.

Wayne County lawmen continue to search for one of two men who were kidnapped Sunday night.
Geniro Jamis and Israil Aguirre were forced out of their vehicle at gunpoint by six men, put into a vehicle and driven off.
Aguirre was released early Monday morning, but the 48-year-old Jamis remains missing.
Deputies say Aguirre was able to clarify some details of the kidnapping. At first lawmen thought the gunmen flashed blue, yellow and red lights at the men's vehicle, making them pull over. Now Aguirre says only a white light was flashed at them. Also, the vehicle is now described as a possible black 1999 Ford extended cab pick-up truck with a camper shell.
Anyone with information on the kidnapping or the location of Jamis should contact the Wayne County Sheriff's Office at 919-731-1481 or Wayne County Crime Stoppers at 919-735-2255.
Previous Story
The Wayne County Sheriff's Office says one of two men kidnapped by six suspects, some armed, in Goldsboro has been released.
Lawmen say the two people kidnapped are 48-year-old Geniro Jamis and 24-year-old Israil Aguirre. They say Aguirre was released early this morning. Both victims are believed to live at D&W Circle in Goldsboro.
The report that two Hispanic men had been kidnapped came in about 10:30 p.m. Sunday.
The report stated "the victims were stopped by a white SUV, possibly an Expedition on Leonard Drive, off of New Hope Road. The victims stopped their vehicle after the suspect vehicle turned on blue yellow and red lights, making the victims think the suspect vehicle was a law enforcement officer."
The report states six men wearing normal clothes and face masks took the two victims out of their vehicle at gunpoint, put them in the SUV and took off.
Lawmen say the suspects are possible one white male and 5 hispanic males.
Anyone with information is asked to call the Wayne County Sheriff's Office at 919-731-1481 or Wayne County Crime Stoppers at 919-735-2255.
Previous Story:
The Wayne County Sheriff's Office says two Hispanic males have been kidnapped by five armed suspects. The men were taken off of D & W Circle in Goldsboro around 10:30 p.m. Sunday.
As of 8 a.m. Monday, few details were available. Officials have not released names of the victims or suspects or what type of vehicle was involved. The Wayne County Sheriff's Office says they hope to release that information soon to see if the public can help.
We'll be sure to keep you updated on this ongoing story as more details are released.

Specialty: Classically casual furniture and accessories by noted designer Michael Berman

Already successful as a designer for high profile projects in New York and Los Angeles, designer Michael Berman wanted to create a new line of home furnishings that represent a more casual sensibility.

I shop all over the world and all over the country and I'm constantly bringing in amazing found objects and items that we call curiosities. These items can be anything from a lavender 1950s Murano glass decanter to representation of a local desert ceramic artist's work in a earthenware.
Best selling item: One of the best selling pieces in my furniture line is actually the Falcon sofa (shown in photo #5 above). It has an amazing "Wingspan" designed back. Definitely one of the most comfortable and sexy sofas I've ever created.
Favorite store (other than your own): I love shopping at Gibson on Beverly Blvd. across the street from Bronze Studio. They have the perfect organic and well worn accessories and objets'd art that finish off a room and allow you to curate an original creation.

ATLANTA -- A T-SPLOST debate on 11Alive has sparked plenty of questions.
Ted Bisterfield of Stockbridge asked about the Metro Atlanta plan calling for a 15 percent set aside for local projects, and whether a small county like Rockdale will get its fair share.
Over the next 10 years, more than a $1 billion in transportation tax revenue will be given to cities and counties for local projects like timing traffic lights, building sidewalks, fixing local roads and making other improvements.
But the bulk of the tax money, 85 percent, or more than $6 billion dollars will go to 157 projects already earmarked for road and bridge construction.
Atlanta voter Alice Schenck asked 11Alive to spell out the MARTA projects that will be funded by the T-SPLOST.
Major improvements will have a fund of $600 million.
The revenue will be primarily for station infrastructure improvements like elevators, escalators, lighting and tracks.
Another $37 million will go toward engineering studies to extend MARTA North Line.
Another viewer asked if a Georgia county can bail out if they voted against the tax.
The answer is no. It's a regional vote and every county within that region goes whichever way the vote goes.
Another viewer, Julian Frazier of Sugar Hill asks if food items will be taxed.
Yes. Food purchases are part of the T-SPLOST revenue program. But gasoline and prescriptions are not. They are exempt.
And another 11Alive viewer wants to know what will happen if T-SPLOST is defeated.
"Plan B is toll roads and higher gas taxes," said Sam Williams, president of the Metro Atlanta Chamber of Commerce. "There is no other source of money to do anything."
Not so, says Sen. Chip Rogers, the state's Republican Senate Majority Leader.
"You do not make an $8.5 billion mistake. You take a step back and you do it right and that's what we need to do," Rogers said.

Zimbra Desktop 7.1.4 (build 11299)
Two questions:
1. Please guys, I need help badly. I installed Zimbra Desktop a few hours ago to be able to download all my emails from a free Yahoo account to my desktop. I want to save those messages on my computer to open them with other email clients like Outlook Express or at the very least be able to save them all as txt messages. I can see all the messages on the Zimbra application being downloaded, but I see no option anywhere to save all these messages on my computer as text or as an extension that Outlook Express would recognize. I want to keep a copy of the messages on the server too.
Again, I need to back up thousands of important messages to my computer, which includes the "sent" folder's emails, to later open with Outlook Express or at the very least be able to save them as txt messages somewhere on my computer.
I need to:
- Save all Yahoo free email account messages saved locally so I can open them with Outlook Express 6
- Keep a copy of the messages on the server.
2. Does the "move" button on the Zimbra application "removes" my messages from the server after messages are "moved" let's say to a LOCAL folder I create with the Zimbra application?
Thank you so much for any help you can provide.

Right now, 21 college students from Kansas are working on a house on 33rd Avenue in Meridian. Churches are also helping with the project, which started back in the fall. Habitat Executive Director Fonda Rush says winter break and spring break both bring a lot of volunteers.
"And every week during March, we have at least two universities coming around," Rush says. "We even have University of Washington flying in to work with us this spring."

Nestled in the center of the city of Solo lies a market unlike any other; a market possessing the ability to transport you through time, pulling you tens, or even hundreds of years into the past. This is the Triwindu Antique Market: the center of excitement for lovers and collectors of antiques. Also known as Windujenar Market, Triwindu Antique Market is located on Jalan Diponegoro, not far from the Mangkunegaran Palace in Solo, Central Java.Upon entering the market complex, you will be greeted by a pair of statues – a man and a woman sitting in the cross-legged position. Solely dedicated to the sale of antiques, the atmosphere in Triwindu differs from other markets. The building itself, wherein the market is situated, is a two-story, wooden structure that has stood since 1945, adding to the "antique" feel of the building.
Strolling across the numerous aisles, you will be treated to various forms of antiques from different times in the past. The artifacts housed within these walls vary greatly in shape, history and cultural background, yet all display an element of high artistic value and admirable craftsmanship. Antiques found in the market can be made of gold, silver, copper, wood, ceramics, paper or cloth.
The variety of antiques available for sale also differ from one another in manner of usage. The first floor contains mostly smaller items. Accessories are just a small portion of the ancient artifacts on display, and include necklaces, bracelets, rings, earrings and hair accessories. Decorational pieces are also on this floor, ranging from table center pieces to wall displays and ancient paintings. A collection of rare books, antique batik cloth, and ancient money and coins are also among the vast display of items Triwindu proudly holds. Random obsolete household items can also be found here, such as gramophones from Europe, antique kitchen and dining utensils, shoes, handbags, and other various items that were once part of everyday life.
The second floor is home to larger items ranging from automotive tools, no longer in existence, to old fashioned bicycles. Antique cabinets, beds, tables, chairs and other furniture items also line the aisles of the second floor.
An interestingly unique feature of Triwindu Antique Market is that the barter system is still in place as a valid means of transaction. Here you can bring your own antique items to exchange for a different piece that you admire. Items housed within this market range in price from just a few hundred thousand to tens of millions of rupiah. The value of an item varies depending on age, history and condition of the item. Although some items date back hundreds of years, most are in good condition and many are still functioning. Triwindu Antique Market is open daily from 9 a.m. to 4p.m.
As Triwindu is located within central Solo, it is not difficult to find a range of nearby hotels and other accommodations to choose from. Here are a few you may consider.

The Adisumarmo International Airport is located 14 kilometers north of Solo city. The airport is internationally connected to Kuala Lumpur and Singapore, and domestic flights are available from Jakarta, Pangkalanbun, and Pontianak.

RALEIGH, N.C. – NC State head coach Mark Gottfried announced the addition of Ralston Turner, a 6-6 guard from Muscle Shoals, Ala., to the Wolfpack program. Turner has signed a financial aid agreement and will have two years of eligibility remaining after sitting out the 2012-13 season under NCAA transfer rules.
"Ralston is a young man I've known for quite a while," Gottfried said. "He's a excellent shooter and a very good overall perimeter player. We are very happy to have him join us."
Turner spent his first two seasons at LSU, playing in 60 games with 59 starting assignments for the Tigers. As a sophomore, Turner averaged 9.1 points per game while hitting .372 (51-of-137) of his attempts from beyond the arc.
As a freshman, Turner led the Tigers in scoring, averaging 12.3 ppg while playing 29.0 minutes a game. He scored in double figures 18 times during his rookie season, including seven straight double figure contests in SEC action. For his efforts, Turner earned All-SEC Freshman Team honors despite missing the first five conference games of the season due to injury.
At Muscle Shoals High School, Turner scored 2,502 career points in 148 games for an average of 16.9 ppg. He also made 247 three-pointers and recorded 263 blocks. Turner was a three-time All-State selection and twice named the Florence Times Daily Player of the Year. In 2010, he garnered the Birmingham Tipoff Club's Player of the Year honors.

Walter P. Chrysler MuseumWritten by on April 1, 2001 Big Wallys Treasure Trove
the globe, there are tributes to mans love affair with the automobile. The Petersen Museum in Los Angeles, the Indianapolis 500 Museum in Indianapolis, Henry Fords iconoclastic Greenfield Village in Dearborn, Michigan, and many others around the world are all basically dedicated to the internal-combustion engine and its various cultural effects on people. Each of these facilities offers its own individual view of how the horseless carriage has impacted us.
While each of these may have a representative piece of Mopar history or two on display, until recently there was no collection open to the public dedicated solely to the products of the Chrysler Corporation and its affiliates. That all changed with the unveiling of the Walter P. Chrysler Museum in Auburn Hills, Michigan, in October 1999. In Chryslers always-trendsetting style, the granite-faced structure with 55,000-square-feet of display space was the first on-site museum built by a North American manufacturer, located on a prominent 10-acre corner of the sprawling DaimlerChrysler Technical Center, a half-hour drive north of Detroit.
The museum has an interesting background. The two leading people in its impetus were former president Bob Lutz and Barbara Fronczak, who is in charge of the Chrysler Historical Archives in Highland Park, Michigan. During the previous 70 years, Chrysler had built up a collection of prototypes and production cars, which were in storage. Otto Rosenbusch, who was in Special Events PR, deserves credit for saving many of the most important cars during the lean years of the late 1970s and early 1980s. As the company looked for any way to liquidate assets to stem off its financial problems, he began to spirit away some of the cars, including the 1924 Chrysler prototype and a DeSoto Airflow that had been owned by Airflow designer Carl Breer, to offsite locations where they would be harder to find. Once the plan was made to establish the facility, these cars formed the initial collection.
Once it became obvious that the collection would finally be put on display, the project focused on making it more than simply an accumulation of hardware. The plan was to present the cars in context to their importance. There would be a special area dedicated to Walter P. Chryslers earliest years, complete with life-sized plaster figures of major players that loom over Chryslers personal tools and desks. Interactive and interpretive displays would highlight special design features that were developed by Chryslers engineering and styling staffs. On each level of the three-story building, certain significant machines would be placed in full-size dioramas; a war-torn street in World War II, a 60s-era drive-in restaurant, and a 50s-era suburb all play supporting roles to the cars. In total, 60 cars could fit into the designed space.
The first floor is dedicated primarily to the prewar and immediate postwar era with the earliest Chryslers. There are also older machines from companies the Chrysler Corporation controlled later. Chrysler Airflow has its own corner, and an enormous aircraft engine from World War II shows the engineering and design quality that later helped make the first-generation Hemi a success. Offices and the museums well-stocked gift shop are also on this level.
A spiral staircase leading to the second floor wraps around an immense pylon supporting three significant carsa 1941 Thunderbolt concept car, one of the surviving 1963 Turbines, and the original Viper prototype. The high-finned Imperials, the Chrysler 300s, and other vehicles from 1950s are upstairs. A Challenger T/A, the sole supercar-era example on this floor, is in one corner at the aforementioned drive-in. The displays also include versions of the ubiquitous K-car, which kept the company alive in the 1980s; the minivan, which Chrysler used to create a whole new genre of automobiles; and a Lamborghini Portofino concept designed by Chryslers Pacifica Studio that inspired cab-forward design from that short-lived partnership in the mid-1990s. The second floor also features a 125-seat movie theatre that loops short films on subjects such as the early life of W.P. Chrysler, the 502-acre Tech Center next door, and the musclecar era.
Ah, yes, the musclecars. You see, the vehicles upstairs are difficult to move around, so the best stuff is in the cavernous basement for easy access. Called the Boss Chryslers Garage, most readers of this magazine will want to save this for last, because once you get down there, youll want to spend some quality time examining everything. Dave Stricklers altered-wheelbase car (on loan from Steve Atwell) is on display, as are a group of muscle-bound machines strung around an abbreviated race course. A line of trucks, ranging from early Dodge Brothers models to Rod Halls Walker Evans off-road champion, are down here too, and a string of Jeeps and AMC models line another wall. Some cars rotate in and out of displays in the aisleway (the museum actually owns about 150 cars). In late 2000, in honor of Mopars return to NASCAR, the Garage was filled with authentic race cars that are either part of the museums additional holdings or are on loan from private collections through this April.
The DaimlerChrysler Technical Center is a groundbreaking facility in the automotive business, housing nearly a complete city of 12,000 employees under one roof. Likewise, the Walter P. Chrysler Museum is a first-ever tribute to the people and the machines that made the Chrysler Corporation one of the largest automobile builders on earth. Its well worth a trip to Michigan to it see first-hand; these photographs give a good idea of what is on display.

Few cars evoke the feelings of the musclecar as much as the purpose-built 440-6 BBL Road Runners and Six Pack Super Bees from the mid-1969 model run. These A12-coded models remain the most purpose-built street-strip cars of the '60s era.Here is the mini-race track in the Boss Chrysler's Garage, full of vehicles from the '50s to the '90s. Until April 2001, this area was full of race machinery from Chrysler's history.For the big-fin brigade, the basement also hosts this Plymouth Fury, a 1957 exercise in Virgil Exner's styling influences. The turnpikes never had it so good...Born for the NASCAR wars and debuting at the first race at Talledega in 1969, the street versions of the Dodge Daytona came in only two speeds—fast and faster. This 440 Magnum-powered edition is from Texas.The museum doesn't only display as-built production cars. This 1992 Chrysler LeBaron coupe set land-speed records at the Bonneville Salt Flats in Modified competition.
If the Fury was too mundane for your tastes, 1957 also offered the 300C, a Chrysler legend that packed 392 inches of early Hemi power under the bonnet. Passes everything but the gas station.The Hemi went by the wayside and was replaced by the long-ram 413 wedge motor. This red 300G is a classic example of the breed. In the background is a 300-H built by Hurst in 1970.According to legend, the testing of the 426 Hemi on dynos in Highland Park roared through the city streets. This is an original dyno, Cell 13, from the plant, complete with a NASCAR-breed Hemi mounted to the inertia wheel.There is a great selection of utility vehicles in the garage, ranging from prewar classics through the '80s, plus a solid display of Jeeps and military units. Upstairs is a monstrous Dodge Power Wagon, a bombed-out street scene from World War II, and a motor from a Sherman tank that was recently found in Argentina.Strickler's 1965 altered-wheelbase car is on loan from collector Steve Atwell, who spent years restoring it to what it is in today. Fuel injected, it is one of the 11 built for the factory program that year at Amblewagon, a Detroit-area subcontractor, giving birth to the "Funny Car" name.Of course, no collection would be complete without a Hemi 'Cuda, and this pristine 1970 model features the Shaker hood treatment and hockey-stick stripes to boot.
Walter P. Chrysler was a fascinating man. This is a realistic diorama of an early machine shop that features Chrysler's original tools and a plaster rendition of W.P. at work.The car that started an empire. The 1924 Chrysler B-70 Phaeton would be the start of Chrysler's legacy after several decades in the railroad and auto-manufacturing business. From its success would come many innovations to the world of car building.As the Depression wound down, styling became more crucial. Here is a 1939 Dodge Hayes coupe, reflecting the styling from the late prewar era.Displays located throughout the museum's three floors highlight Chrysler's technical innovations. This one shows the development and construction of the PowerFlite transmission, the predecessor of the Torqueflite.Chrysler Corporation's products played a big role in winning the Second World War, and the extent may never be fully appreciated. While Willys Jeeps were perhaps the most visible vehicles of the 1941-'45 era, Chrysler built hundreds of military transports, Flying Fortress bomber engines, and played a vital hardware role in the Manhattan Project that produced the first atomic bomb.The immediate postwar era brought about cars like this classic Chrysler Town & Country convertible, complete with the wood treatment. This is a 1948 model.The Ghia custom that took the auto-show world by storm, this 1953 Chrysler Thomas Special is at the top of the landing coming up to the final floor of the collection. With only six built, it was one of the toughest vehicles for the museum to find.Two years later, the first Chrysler 300 was introduced, and this version is displayed with the "Million Dollar Look" billboard in the background.
For the well-off, there was the spectacular 1957 Chrysler Imperial Southampton. With chrome galore and bullet taillights, this was the highway star that could be summed up with the two words: "wretched excess." A Mopar classic from the Exner era.

Effortless Sales Tips
Every salesperson would like to excel at sales. What does it take to go from good to great in sales? I could mention dozens of different closing techniques to help increase your closing ratio, but I want to focus on some basics today that help salespeople excel in closing sales. As part of Two Degrees Marketing business consulting services we train teams in sales techniques. We also train receptionists and assistants in lawyers, doctors, dentist, and other professional service businesses the art of soft closing techniques.
Many of these techniques will seem simple or self evident, but personalizing and customizing these techniques and using them consistently, can increase your sales while having you enjoying the process more. Sales is an art when done professionally. Most of these techniques or skills are simple, but not always easy to remember when in a sales meeting or sales call. Using them consistently, practicing these techniques, and incorporating them into your sales process can help take your sales from good to great. Go easy take on one technique at a time until it feels natural and then add in other techniques as your closing techniques improve.
Sales-Start with the End in Mind
Wanting to close the sale is one of the most important factors in closing a sale. You probably think, who wouldn't want to close a sale-but every sales starts with focus, intention, and preparation. It is important to prepare for a sale with understanding your potential client, by doing a full background research about your prospective client. Review current news, social media, press releases, their company website, be sure to do Internet research about the company and the CEO or president, to help prepare for your sales meeting or sales call. The better you understand the company and their current needs, the more confident you will be in your sales presentation. People also appreciate when you can engage on a more informed level about their company and they appreciate that you have taken the time to become educated about their company.
Talk Less and Ask More Questions
Once you have done your background research on a prospective client, you are equipped with information that helps you generate engaging questions that will help guide your sales presentation or sales call. Prepare a series of engaging questions, all of which are open-ended, not questions that can be answered with a simple yes or no. When preparing your questions keep in mind your objectives and create questions that will gently lead your potential client to the desired decision. If you understand a company's objectives you can then understand how your product or service will be a solution to their needs. Be sure to remember-He who talks least controls the conversation the most. A sure sign of a rookie salesperson is someone that needs to dominate the conversation.
Don't Tell Me What I Need- Ask Me what I Want
People don't like to be told what to do. They don't like to be indoctrinated, they like to be educated. When asking questions be sure to ask a prospective client what they would like or what they want. A prospective client properly queried will give you the closing information you need to close the sale. Be sure to focus on benefits versus features and facts. The easiest way to get a sales call off track is to focus on the features, that's about your company. When you tell about the benefits, the conversation is focused on the potential client. Most sales call end with a prospective client making a decision from being moved by emotions, not from an intellectual fact filled presentation. Base your discussions on results and benefits to the prospective client.
Know Your Competition
Knowing your competition that your client may be evaluating in relationship to the services or products you company provides gives you a competitive edge. Being knowledgeable about your competition's strengths, limitations, where they conduct business, how their product or service are rated, customer service, and company profile will help you be better informed about how your potential client would size up your product or service compared to your competitor. One of the basic tenants in sales is to know your competition better than you know your own company; your strength in a sales meeting or sales call will come from a thorough understanding of how your company's product or service stacks up to your competitors. Market research and competitive analysis is the foundation for delivering quality to your client and closing sales.
Be Solution Oriented
Master the art of seeing the solution rather than focusing on the problem. Be caring, but don't take things personally. A "no" is not a "no" to you, it's a "no" for now to the product or service. Many times in sales trainings I have explained to salespeople to visualize a sales call or sales presentation as a tennis game, board game, or poker hand; always care about the outcome, be invested in creating a solution, but realize most successful sales people hear a lot of "no's getting getting to a "yes". An attitude I appreciate, if you can answer yes to a client and then figure a way to deliver on the "yes", it is better than double thinking yourself so you don't get to the "yes".
Be sure to reward yourself when you make a sale or a sales quota; giving yourself an experience or small gift to reward yourself for a job well done is a carrot than can help you focus on your goals and outcomes. Enjoying the sales process will help you take you from good to great in sales. People enjoy working with people who enjoy what they do. At Two Degrees Marketing we consistently exceed our clients expectations. We love what we do and it shows! Share with us on Facebook what has worked best for you in closing sales.

Devun Walsh has probably been filming video parts for longer than you've been snowboarding, so it's safe to say that he knows what he wants in a snowboard. His DC Devun Pro Snowboard reflects that by packing in all sorts of features designed to help him continue conquering the British Columbian backcountry.
The Micro Camber profile features a flat zone between the bindings for a floaty and stable feel, with 1.5mm of positive camber at the tip and tail for the power and pop of a traditionally cambered board. Quadrax fiberglass with carbon stringers makes the board stiff and responsive for maintain control while bombing down steeps and increases pop to help you go big off backcountry booters. The Slugger core features a mix of poplar and ash for drive and durability, and DC replaced toxic plastic topsheet materials for a Fresh Deck topsheet that uses a ply of wood to give it the poppy feel of a crispy skate deck.

Deda constructed its Zero 100 SC stem using an ultralight 2014 aluminum alloy and 3D forging process. This manufacturing method yields an incredibly stiff and lightweight design, which perfectly complements the 31.8mm handlebar of your choosing. And to go along with the theme of shaving overall weight, Deda also added titanium hardware to this Servizio Corse model. While these might be small details to some, they are absolutely essential to Deda.

Antarctica and climate change
13 April 2010 | News story
Previous to the Antarctic Treaty Meeting of Experts scheduled for the 6–9th of April 2010 in Svolvær, Norway (link), the Antarctic and Southern Ocean Coalition (ASOC) released the results of two studies on the impact of climate change on species.
The first study evaluates the response of two pack ice penguins (Emperor and Adélie) to habitat change as Earth's troposphere reaches 2°C above preindustrial levels (pdf).
The second study deals with the need of adaptative management for the Antarctic krill fisheries in the Scotia Sea/Antarctic Peninsula region to take account of the combined impacts of recovering populations of predators, future fishing and climate change (pdf).

It was a successful return to the WTA tour for Kim Clijsters in Cincinnati!
The former top lady baller, who is returning after 2 years away, downed Stanford champ Marion Bartoli 6-4, 6-3 in the tourney's opening round after an hour and 23 minutes of play. I'd say that's a pretty big win especially since Bart has been playing some good ball of late. Impressive indeed.
I'm not the only one who's impressed, though. You can count Serena Williams in that camp:
I look like I'm the one who had a kid more than her. She looks amazing.
I mean, I plan on playing a long time so if that means I have to pop one out and keep going, I guess so.

WHEELING - Pedestrians walking near the old Wheeling-Pittsburgh Steel building at 1134 Market St. may have noticed a raptor's leftovers on the sidewalk - primarily pigeon parts. Wings, heads and feathers have been known to land on the sidewalk in front of the building.
But the sight should not concern people. It's likely is just a bird of prey doing its job, said Wendy Perrone, executive director of the Three Rivers Avian Center in Brooks, W.Va.
"They are keeping the bird population healthy. They take out the slow ones, the dumb ones and the ones not feeling well," Perrone said of the raptors and their prey.

A peregrine falcon soars through the air. Wildlife biologist Scott Shalaway of Cameron says there has been sightings of the bird hunting in downtown Wheeling, which explains people finding leftover pigeon parts on sidewalks.
Cameron resident Scott Shalaway, a wildlife biologist, said the bird is a peregrine falcon. The falcons, he said, have been migrating to Wheeling to hunt for pigeons and other birds for years.
"They don't nest in Wheeling - there are two in Pittsburgh that roam widely. Wheeling is a good spot to feed," Shalaway said. "I was doing a daily radio show three years ago and we were talking about them then."
Once endangered, the peregrine falcon population now is healthy and growing, and can be seen hunting in cities. Typically, the birds like cliffs, but they now are perching from bridges and tall buildings.
"They like window ledges to watch what's going on. They stalk in flight. ... They are so fast and powerful," Shalaway said.
The downtown area likely is a hunting ground ripe for pigeons, as some people tend to feed the birds bread at nearby Heritage Port, just a few blocks away from the Wheeling-Pitt building.
Perrone said raptors can easily see their prey at such a distance and the former steel building is the tallest structure in the city.
"They can see three to four times better than we can, as far as distance is concerned," Perrone said.
Perrone said peregrine falcons are "blindingly fast" and can reach speeds of up to 125 mph while hunting, and have been clocked at 260 mph while in a vertical dive.
She noted peregrine falcons may eat one to two pigeons a day.
As long as a food source is sustainable, the raptors will stay.
For example, near the capitol building in Charleston, W.Va., Perrone said as many as seven hawks have been seen hunting in the area.
Patty Morrison, a biologist with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife's Ohio River Islands National Wildlife Refuge, said peregrine falcons love to eat pigeons.
She bets there is likely more than one hunting in the downtown area.

Video: Color Choices For DC Taxis Unveiled
WASHINGTON (WUSA) -- You can help choose the new look of DC's taxi cabs.
D.C. Mayor Vincent Gray and DC Taxicab Commission Chairman Ron Linton unveiled four possible color schemes( yellow/green, yellow/white, black/red, red/white) for the fleet at the Verizon Center on Monday. The District is trying to pick one color as part of upgrades outlined in the Taxicab Modernization Act.
The public can give feedback about the color schemes on the DCTC website soon: http://dctaxi.dc.gov/. If you want to see the possible colors in person, the vehicles will be at the Verizon Center until January 7, 2013 when they will move to Union Station.
There's a social media component to the proposed colors. D.C. officials say you can weigh in using the hashtag #votedctaxi on Twitter.
The selection process will also include a public hearing and meetings with DCTC. The final recommendations are expected in the spring.

New Day wins tag titles
It appears that the rumors about a New Day push are true. Kofi Kingston and Big E Langston were able to capture the belt from Tyson Kidd and Antonio Cesaro. Of course, Kingston generated some heel heat for the trio by grabbing a handful of trunks to secure the pin fall. They were jeered by the audience because of their new tactics, which means that the booking is working. Natalya and Xavier Woods were heavily involved.

Now, obviously these results look pretty wonky, but they're a good start. I like how the light yellow that will be my range of hills/mountains has a sort of curve to it now, and the reshaped lape in the top left corner is good too. Once you get something you're mostly happy with, it's time to rinse and repeat - run crystallize again, only this time lower the settings by at least 25% - I'll start with a setting of about 30 and see what I get. Again, bump the settings up and down just a single notch at a time - I found that 29, 30, 31 and 32 all gave me drastically different results, but ultimately 30 is the setting I kept.
Run crystallize again. See if it does anything you like while keeping the setting at 30; if not, drop it again to about 20 and see what you get. Each time you lower the settings, your edges are distorted with a greater level of detail, and more of the original shape left undisturbed. As you work your way down, you'll gradually get some plausible looking coastlines, boundaries, possible river tracks, and so forth.
Starting with the picture above, I ran Crystallize again using settings of 23, 15, 15 again, 9, 6, 4 with a reseed, 7 (I was curious), and 3. The minimum settins is 2, but I didn't feel a need to go farther so I stopped.
To be honest, I usually only run Crystallize half as many times as this, but I was having fun. As long as you eventually get to a setting around 4 to 8 as your final stop, you'll be fine.
Step 4 - Fill in the gaps
So, the white gaps in the original grid scribble have also gotten "crystallized" and are now some intriguing shapes in between our selected color patches. If you look closely, you'll also see a few places where the crystals overlap, giving you semi-transparent or color-blended zones. If you've gotten the Adjustments > Transparency plugin, now is the time to use it, increasing the setting to "fully opaque". Since we use the flood fill at a low tolerance, those translucent spots can be a pain.
Next we're going to use our color picker, possibly our magic wand, and our flood fill to take care of recoloring the gaps.
As with the rest of this tut, the theme of the day is Play Around. Should I bridge those two dark green zones in the lower left with more of the same, or extend my mountain terrain between them, or spread the lighter green of the top left down into those spaces? The program has already given me some new "in-between" colors to play with thanks to the blending of multiple crystals; maybe I'll want to use those to fill convert empty spaces into "in-between" zones.
So. If you don't want to create another color from scratch, use your color picker to select something, set your magic wand tolerance no higher than 33% and use it to outline the area you want to fill. You actually only need magic wand if you want to fill in more than one area at a time; press and hold the Shift key while you select your zones. If you find that the magic wand is selecting stuff you didn't want it to, just drop the tolerance and select the area again.
Assuming you used magic wand, once you've selected as much of the zone as you want, use flood fill. If you want that color in more than one place, set the flood fill tolerance to 0 so you don't cover anything by mistake, and go to it.
Okay, as far as this technique is concerned, you're done. You've got nice wiggly borders and boundaries, areas of color blend that overlap the main zones, and hopefully a map that is throwing suggestions at you left and right. For myself, I can already get a good idea of where my rivers are going to go based just on this.
An option, if you want to continue, is to open a new layer, and render some clouds on it. Set the layer's blend mode to overlay and you'll get a whole new range of texture - although admittedly, if you're going for a political map, the clouds likely defeat your purpose. If you do use them, they can suggest new elevations and possible paths for hills, rivers, roads, and different water depths. If you do that, though, I'd suggest only using one color for your water when you're doing the scribble step - otherwise it just looks weird once you try to use the clouds over the water.
Considering we started with a sloppily-colored grid...
...this doesn't look too shabby, now does it?

Pop superstar Justin Timberlake still harbors dreams of conquering the country music industry, insisting the genre was as influential for him growing up in Tennessee as soul and rock music.
The "SexyBack" hitmaker first voiced his ambition to launch himself as a country star early on in his career, but his four solo albums to date have been mainly focused on the sounds of pop, R&B and soul.
However, Timberlake is keeping Nashville, the heart of country music, in his sights – and claims it is still on his list of things to achieve after infusing a little country sounds into "Drink You Away," a song on his new album, "The 20/20 Experience – 2 Of 2."
During an interview with America's SiriusXM radio host Storme Warren, he says, "They (his country dreams) are still alive… I'm America, that's what I am – in all sense of the word. I grew up outside of Memphis, Tennessee, and I listened to country music, R&B music, classic rock… everything."
Timberlake's "The 20/20 Experience," which was released earlier this year, is currently shortlisted for Favorite Pop/Rock Album and Favorite Soul/R&B Album at the American Music Awards on Sunday, but he hopes to be making waves in the country category at some point in his career.
He says, "I still got my eyes on a Best Country Album. There's time for that."
Timberlake is no stranger to country – he lent his vocals to Alabama's 1999 version of "God Must Have Spent A Little More Time On You" as a member of 'N Sync, while he teamed up with Reba McEntire for the track "The Only Promise That Remains" for her 2007 album Duets.

Uzbekistan: End Forced, Child Labor in Cotton Fields

The letter precedes the US government's planned release of its annual Global Trafficking in Persons (GTIP) report and the ILO's annual International Labour Conference in June. Under the US Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act (TVPRA), the Uzbek government must present a written plan that constitutes "significant efforts" to eliminate forced labor to avoid a downgrade in the 2012 global trafficking report, which would trigger automatic sanctions.
The Uzbek government has failed to meet this condition, the coalition said, persistently denying the existence of forced labor and forced child labor in the cotton sector and cracking down on local activists who attempt to monitor the cotton harvest. The 2011 GTIP report identifies the Uzbek government's state quota system for cotton production as a root cause of the practice.
"Denying the International Labour Organization access to Uzbekistan during the cotton harvest for several years running and muzzling local activists who try to document forced child labor show that the Uzbek government is not credibly tackling this issue," said Steve Swerdlow, Central Asia researcher at Human Rights Watch. "The US government should insist on independent monitoring by the ILO and local rights groups at a minimum to avoid a downgrade in the trafficking report."
The Uzbek government remains one of the most repressive in the world. Reports about the 2011 harvest by local monitoring groups and academic studies highlighted the coercion of children as young as 10 and adults, allegedly including employees of the US company General Motors, to pick cotton and to fulfill government quotas of cotton production.
During the 2011 cotton harvest, the Uzbek government also arbitrarily detained three well-known rights activists who were trying to monitor the use of forced and child labor during the cotton harvest, threatening criminal charges against two.

Seeing as the only thing separating us from the Cy-Hawk Game is a little more than 72 of the longest hours of the year, I thought I would start this so everyone can share what their plans are for the game this weekend.
I was thinking about going to Iowa City, but instead my roommates and I are having some friends over and going to watch it in a group of about 8 or so.
Definitely will be watching College GameDay and some other games before this one kicks off, but depending on how it goes I may or may not watch more football afterwards.
What about you? Go State!

Drive up to Minnesota for cousin's wedding. Listen to pre-game coverage for as much of the drive as possible. Follow game on my phone until actual ceremony starts. Have friends in-state text me updates while phone is on silent. Celebrate victory with open bar at reception.
Tailgate (If you can call it that.) Followed by watching the game and watching my back from the student section!
Drink and watch game at bar in ames. Thinking either Es Tas or Welch Ave.
Chicago gamewatch at either Fizz or Corcorans.
When Prepared, Fear No One.
PRobably watch at SPortspage in Ankeny

how clueless were the people planning this wedding haha
My dads side of the family always has a family reunion that day and we all watch the game. Family is about a 50/50 split for the team they like. It is always a good time.
I think I am going to head to Omaha to the old ladies and find somewhere to watch the game. If I don't, then I have no idea. Probably head to the golf course and listen to the Hawk Homers drone on and on.
#TeamProhm #ProhmanEmpire #ProhmanColiseum
Some genius planned a family reunion on my wife's side for Saturday. It's at a park up in Nashua but hopefully we can eat and run to get to a tv in time to watch the game.
I got invited to the season opener at Lambeau, so I'll be on the road to Green Bay. Radio for me, hopefully can keep control of the vehicle!

Hi. Thanks for sharing your map work. I like the rivers and bays / inlets, and the shadowdark edge of the continent which seems to pop up from the ocean. The mountains are good but seem to have a slightly different flavor style compared to the rest. The forest is very flat looking with those circles, which actually works when zoomed out, but looks not as good when zoomed in. But I could see it printing nicely, to be functional on paper.
For farms you could try a similar style, instead of circles, do a small thatched grid of parallel lines (rows of farm), or give them a little curvature for hilly farmland. Go very sparse with those farm patches, a little goes a long way I think. Deserts maybe just a pattern of dots? Then plains could just be, well, plain - is it is now in the undecorated parts.
P.s. I think it is a regional or continental, Southern part of a large continent, map, if I am looking at the right map. I do not see a whole world map there.

Cuba-N.Korean missile deal has serious trade implications
July 17, 2013 - LM Editorial
U.S. shippers hoping to do business in Cuba in the future were dealt a serious setback yesterday when Panamanian authorities discovered that the renegade nation had been trading undeclared "missile equipment" with North Korea.
IHS Jane's had identified the equipment shown in the images so far released as an RSN-75 'Fan Song' fire control radar for the SA-2 family of surface-to-air (SAM) missiles.
"It is curious that this cargo was being transported on a North Korean-flagged vessel and not a charter," said IHS APAC Analyst Neil Ashdown in London. In an interview with LM, he added that this development would mean greater scrutiny of pending trade negotiations with Cuba.
The cargo of a North Korean-flagged vessel, the Chong Chon Gang, appeared to have been travelling from Cuba back to North Korea.
Open source Global Information System (GIS) data suggests the Chong Chon Gang had been at Manzanillo, Panama, for at least two days. The AFP reported that the vessel was inspected last Friday (12 July). GIS data obtained by IHS Maritime reveals that the Chong Chon Gang arrived at the southern end of the Panama Canal on 31 May. It passed through the Canal on 1 June, with a stated destination of Havana, Cuba. After that, however, it disappeared from the GIS system and reappeared in Manzanillo, Panama, on 11 July, supposedly en route to North Korea. At this point, its draft had changed, indicating that in the intervening period there has been a change of cargo.
IHS Country Risk assesses that the manner in which the cargo was concealed and the reported reaction of the crew strongly suggests this was a covert shipment of equipment. Further analysis will be dependent on the release of a fuller inventory of the shipment by the Panamanian authorities. One possibility is that Cuba could be sending the system to North Korea for an upgrade. In this case, it would likely be returned to Cuba and the cargo of sugar could be a payment for the services.
However, under a second scenario, the fire-control radar equipment could have been en route to North Korea to augment Pyongyang's existing air defence network. North Korea's air defence network is arguably one of the densest in the world, but it is also based on obsolete weapons, missiles and radars. In particular, its high altitude SA-2/3/5 surface-to-air missiles (SAMs) are ineffective in a modern electronic warfare (EW) environment.

Welcome to Eastmans Jared! 18. Hope you stick around and tell us about some of your experiences.
Hello Everyone. I have been an Eastman's subscriber for several years, but had never been to this forum until recently, when I found this site while researching for the sheep tag I drew for Hells Canyon. I live in Central Oregon and have hunted in most western states, but have not hunted this area before. If anyone has hunted this area or seen rams in the unit I would appreciate hearing from you!
Thank you, Jared

Welcome to the EF! I heard about you on ifish, congrats on one Hell of a tag! I wish I had some info on the unit to help out. I live very near you, between Redmond and Bend. I hope to see the ram you end up with in person someday.
I saw some on a jet boat tour of hells canyon. Its tough straight up and down country and a great sheep unit. Good luck!
Funny you heard about me on ifish. I haven't posted there. Must have been a friend helping scout :-) I live in Tumalo, so we live close.
great tag, when you are in the area, check out the jack occonor museum in hells gate state park in lewiston. Great pump up for your hunt.
I went scouting last weekend and stayed in the park. The museum is incredible!
no knowledge of unit but congrats on tag. that rocks!!!
have you done anymore scouting?

Hi all,
We're looking to trial Zimbra, with a view to go Appliance Pro for somewhere between 300 and 400 mailboxes.
A stumbling block is that we don't run any VMWare servers and quite frankly I don't want to. This however presents a problem as I can't seem to locate any install packages for Zimbra 6 or 7 which can just be installed traditionally onto CentOS.
Is there any hope, or is it VMWare or nothing? :confused:
