New toy - D800
Just picked up my D800. The first one sold by Aden Camera. The shipment was delivered to the store today.
Played with it for 10 minutes. Here are some very early thoughts:
1) It does not feel heavier than D300 (big surprise).
2) The layout is not that different from D300, except that indicator showing over/underexposure is reversed - confused me until I paid attention to the signs.
3) Wonderful large and bright viewfinder.
4) Brighter LCD display - perfectly usable outside in a shadow on a bright sunny day.
5) Dedicated buttons for bracketing (wonderful), live-view (good), movie use (OK).
6) CF card from my D300 did not work (!!)
6) Thick manual (it is good for you, I suppose)
Now I have to learn how to use this beast, so this is it for now.

RE: New toy - D800
Fantastic Pavel! I'm glad you finally found your D300 replacement!
Do post some pics when you get a chance - I would like to hear how you find the difference in output.
Which lens are you using with it?

RE: New toy - D800
It goes without saying that I'm a little jealous… pleased to see you have it, but also a little jealous.
I am looking forward to seeing what you can do with it, and hearing your thoughts on the camera.
Check function f12, "reverse indicators", to switch the direction for the exposure compensation. (Page 319 in the manual.)

RE: New toy - D800
A problem. As I was rather gently putting the camera on a table, battery door fell off and clinked on the table. As I did not have the battery door opened since placing the battery in in the store and since the design is familiar from D300, I do not suspect my error. Closer inspection showed that the door is held in place by two very thin plastic pins and one of the pins broke off. Please advise on the next course of action

New toy - D800
I'm at a loss for words. Which I suppose is just a shallow echo of what you're thinking right now.
Off the top of my head, my first thought would be to take it back and see if the store could swap it for a new camera. But in this case, there's no swap units available and no eta on more cameras, so that's problematic at best.
I can ask around tomorrow and see what I can find out....
I would suggest calling Nikon Canada first thing in the morning. They might be reluctant to accept this as a warranty issue if the camera was older, but at this point they know exactly how long you've had it for, which gives you moral authority. See if they have the replacement part available, and if they do, if it's possible to have it fixed while-you-wait at their Mississauga service centre. Even if they don't/can't, get the fault on file as a warranty complaint even if you don't send the camera in right away.

RE: New toy - D800
Congrats Pavel... I'll be very interested to see the results you can get from this camera as well as read your thoughts. Having just put an order in for a 5DMk3 myself, I'm very keen to see how it stacks up against the D800. I'm too invested in glass to have jumped ship from Canon to Nikon over a single camera body, so I never seriously considered the D800... but if I was starting from a blank slate it could have been a very different story.
I'm sorry to hear about the battery door. There's nothing more frustrating than minor things that become major issues like that. I hope you can get it sorted quickly and painlessly.

Nikon Canada is expecting to take delivery of spare parts HOPEFULLY (service reps term) in 3 week time. In the meantime the advice is to use electrical tape. Careful about jokes guys. I am not in a joking mood.

RE: New toy - D800
Great news about the D800. The battery door thing sucks though. Reminds me of the day that my wife bought a brand new car. A vandal threw a rock through the back window the first night she had it. No time to enjoy the untouched beauty of the new toy.
I think this may be a legitimate warranty issue. If this has happened to you, it will happen to many others as well. The D800 is aimed at a professional market with high usage needs, and the battery door should be designed to be more durable then that.

New toy - D800
That sucks.
I just checked the D7000, hoping that it might have the same design. It is also held in place with two plastic pins, and is designed so that it can pull out and off of the camera quite easily when it's at about a 45 degree angle. I don't know why they would make it removable, since the battery grip doesn't insert into the camera body, but not everything makes sense.
Fingers crossed and hoping against the odds that this is all that's happened....

RE: New toy - D800
Sorry to hear about the battery door - that's the last thing you want to happen to a new toy...
Good that you've been in contact with Nikon - did they say that they would fix this under warranty?
I suggest documenting the sequence of events in detail, as well as every interaction you have with Nikon and the camera shop. Dates, times, names, etc. as it is fresh in your mind now. Three weeks later things may be a bit hazy and it could turn into a he-said-she-said thing...
All the best!

RE: New toy - D800
I posted a result of shooting at ISO 128 000 in a high contrast situation here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/pavel_photophile2008/. This is a nightmare situation for D300, which would have a lot of trouble with this at ISO 800. Basically I expose for highlights making sure that they are not blown and let the shadows fall where they may and than I bring out the shadows. With D300 in this situation, there would be a lot of noise and colors would be terrible. I am amazed how well D800 handled this. The colors are perfectly lifelike and the noise is controllable and tolerable. The Dynamic range is reduced of course compared to ISO 800. I shot series of photos starting with ISO 800 and at ISO 800 the highlights were not blown. As I kept the overall exposure the same, compensating for ISO increases by increasing comparably the shutter speed, I inevitably ended up blowing the highlights at high ISO settings.
The other features I am learning to appreciate are the many mechanical controls (let us call them buttons) I gave up using a lot of features on D300, because I hated hunting for them in the menus. Now for all those features there are 1 button or 2 button controls. This means I will use a host of features I did not use on D300.
The LCD monitor is brighter than on D300 and quite usable on a bright day (unlike D300), although my wife's Canon G11 has a brighter display. I may well be using lifeview some of the time. It even has a dedicated button and many features of life-view are controlled by other buttons. Love it.
The camera has numerous features that I like and plan to use. These are possible due to all these buttons and because the processor is so powerful. Let us mention multiple exposure feature as an example. You can take multiples of shots and combine them into a single RAW image. Nikon claims that the color is better in shadows when you combine the images on the sensor-processor level than when you combine the RAW images in software. I expect that the noise will also be averaged out. This feature can be easily assigned to the bracketing button and it can be apparently used without a tripod. The output of combining up to 10 exposures into one image can be output as a raw image, unlike HDR function, which is generated with only 2 exposures and the output is jpeg.
The defective battery door aside, I think you can see that I think that this is a great camera and worth the cost

RE: New toy - D800
I'm not sure how to say this after the mixed experience that Pavel has had, but…
I don't rank as highly, so I was seventh on the list at the camera store. Given Pavel's issue with the battery door – I've heard a passing mention of this fault elsewhere as well – I decided that this would also be a good time to buy a battery grip to put on the bottom of the camera.
I haven't been able to form a lot of coherent thoughts since then, but essentially all of the good things people are saying are true. I'm looking forward to really trying it out this weekend.

Wow! Guess we are going to be seing a lot of D800 shots moving forward. Can't wait. Looks like a wonderful camera.
Might be a good time to pickup a used D700 body. I still have a lot of good Nikon glass - even if the D200 body is well past its prime.

RE: New toy - D800
Matthew, I very much appreciate that you let me keep my spot in the queue and I hope you will get yours really soon. Knowing how much we both looked forward to this, it was very generous of you. I also appreciate your even-tempered response to my anxious inquiries when the camera did not show up when Nikon promised it will.
I assume that the passing mention about battery door was in Thom Hogan's blog. I do not know if anybody beside me sent him a note about this issue, but I certainly did. I am surprised how flimsy (ultra-thin plastic) they made the pins that hold the door. After all this is supposed to be a pro-grade camera and I would expect a more robust construction.

RE: New toy - D800
Pavel, everything's right in the world – I do have mine now. And yes, I did see that mention on bythom – but he mentioned a pin 'falling off', so I assumed it was someone else. Small world.
Robert, I know from experience that there are a lot of D700's on the market right now. They're still not quite cheap, but it's a buyer's market just the same.

The what-ifs
I find it highly offensive that the Jewish Federation demanded that an NRA lobbyist be fired because he voiced his opinion that Jews should be against restrictive gun laws ("On anniversary of shooting, Jewish Federation tells NRA spokesman to step down").
The idea that the Holocaust could not have been prevented if Jews had guns is mere conjecture. However, it was not just gun laws in Germany that mattered, but those in Poland, Hungary, Romania, and the other European countries in which Jews were rounded up and slaughtered like animals without resistance (since without weapons, any such resistance would have been futile).
As a Jew and a Federation member and long-time supporter of the Jewish Federation, I am aghast that you think we own the Holocaust. One of the major reasons we have Holocaust education is to teach Jews and non-Jews the ramifications of this unthinkable event. That people may draw conclusions different from yours is to be expected and even encouraged — it is certainly no reason to demand they be fired!
Of all organizations, I would have thought that the Federation would be more tolerant of the views of others. I am not speaking to the merits of the current initiative, yet I think you would agree that if Israeli Jews did not have guns we would be experiencing another Holocaust right now.
Since Federation is the "umbrella organization" or "big tent" of Jews in the Seattle region, I would greatly appreciate it if you did not speak for me and my fellow Jews on this topic — or any other, in advocating for the suppression of those views that differ from your own individual outlook.

If you've ever eaten granola — whether as a breakfast cereal or a crunchy addition to a yogurt parfait — you've tasted the goodness of whole grains. Granola typically consists of oats, nuts and dried fruits. Oats are a whole grain, and grains are the seeds of grasses that are cultivated for food.
Why whole grains?
All grains are low in fat and rich in complex carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals. But whole grains are better sources of fiber and key nutrients like selenium, potassium and magnesium than refined grains. The reason? A grain's fiber is housed in its bran and germ — and refined grains, like white rice or white flour, lose their bran and germ during the milling process.
Whole grains are good for you, and organic whole grains are even better. That's because organic food is produced without pesticides, hormones and antibiotics. Before a food can be labeled organic, a government-approved certifier inspects the farm where the food is grown to make sure the farmer meets U.S. Department of Agriculture standards. Companies that handle or process organic food also must be certified.
The benefits of fiber
A diet high in fiber — such as whole grains — has many health benefits:
Getting more whole grains
In addition to oats, other whole grains include barley, brown rice, wild rice, buckwheat, bulgur (cracked wheat) and millet. Many whole-grain foods come ready to serve, including cereals, breads and pasta products. But you can boost the amount of organic whole grains in your diet by trying these suggestions:
It's not hard to raise the level of fiber-rich whole grains in your diet. A whole-grain tortilla here, a side dish of wild rice there, and pretty soon you're eating better than you ever have before.

Do you guys find cadence information from a computer necessary in your training or do you "spot check" and or just been riding for so long that you can feel what cadence range you are doing while riding?
Discussion between me and another person is that accurate cadence data is a must for your training/TT racing where I feel that using feel and or near accurate PT hub cadence is more than enough. To be honest I never look at cadence unless im doing a drill that requires a certain range and then I only spot check.
Not that theres a right or wrong way but wondering what you guys/gals do.

THE first premise of all human history is of course the existence of living human individuals. The first matter of fact to be established is therefore the bodily organization of these individuals and their relation thus given to the rest of nature. We cannot here, of course, go into the physical constitution of men themselves nor into the natural conditions found by them--the geologic, oro-hydrographic, climatic and other conditions. All historical writing must set out from these natural bases, and their modification in the course of history by the action of men.
We can distinguish men from animals by consciousness, religion, or whatever we like. They themselves begin to distinguish themselves from animals as soon as they begin to produce the means of life, a step which is conditioned by their bodily organization. In producing their means of life, men indirectly produce their material life itself.
The manner in which men produce their means of life depends first of all upon the nature of the means which they have found and have to reproduce.
The mode of production is not to be considered as being merely a reproduction of the physical existence of the individuals. It is much rather a definite kind of activity of these individuals, a definite way in which they express their lives, one of their definite modes of living. As individuals express their lives, so are they. Therefore what they are coincides with their production, both in the sense of what they produce and how they produce it. Thus what individuals are, depends upon the material conditions of their production. . . .

The most racist, political federal agency in U.S. history
The current U.S. Department of Justice is the most racist and political federal agency in the history of this country. It started its tenure by refusing to prosecute the New Black Panther thugs who intimidated voters in Pennsylvania in the previous national election, although the case had been readied for court by the previous Department of Justice. Since then, Justice has failed to fully and effectively investigate anything that would reflect poorly on this administration: the Fast and Furious gun running fiasco, the IRS targeting of conservatives, the NSA eavesdropping scandal, etc.
Yet on two occasions the department has interfered in what should have been local issues: the Trayvon Martin shooting and now the Michael Brown shooting. It appears that the only way to get Eric Holder and company to act is to have a black victim. The rest of us can't expect justice from them.

Philippe Cornet's two goals lead OKC Barons past Lake Erie
It was the Barons' fourth straight win after two victories at Rochester. The Barons have the best record in the AHL at 27-11-2-3 and lead in standing points with 59.
After a scoreless first period, Cornet opened the scoring at the 11:10 mark of the second with his 19th goal of the year.
Lake Erie tied it at 1-1 on a power play-goal at 14:42 in the second.
The eventual game-winner from Cornet came at 8:24 in the third on a major power play. Cornet put home his 20th of the season when he batted the puck out of the air.
Keller added an empty-net goal with 7.2 seconds left. Oklahoma City out-shot Lake Erie 26-22, including 14-5 in the third.
The Barons return home to face Houston on Friday and Texas on Saturday at the Cox Center. Faceoff for both games is 7 p.m.

At the moment, they strive each day to provide a better future for their children.
Thanks to her effort and her desire to move forward, Ana was appointed the group coordinator. Her business is a small store where she sells products in small quantities including rice, beans, sugar, milk, bread, eggs, salt, matches, juices, sodas, cheese, and vegetables. Ana devotes about 12 hours to her business by offering her products. The purpose of her loan is to invest it as operating capital so that she can restock her business of buying and selling products. In the near future, she would like to generate more income.

Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.
Loan tags help lenders find loans that match certain areas of interest. You can add up to 5 tags for this loan.

Ahadi Group
Tabu is the entrepreneur of a cafeteria (mini-restaurant) set up in the Virunga district at a neighborhood market. She started this mini-restaurant enterprise with her own funds received from her husband after the eruption of the Nyiragongo volcano February 16 and 17, 2002 which completely destroyed the city of Goma. Stricken and homeless, she too found herself a victim of this volcanic eruption.
Her initial capital was $100. A little later, she was informed of the micro-finance institution Hekima, which lends to the poor, without any collateral, through loan groups. From that, she is benefiting from her first reinforcement loan.
With the loan from MFI Hekima, Tabu wishes to increase her sales by buying: a sack of beans, 25 kilos of rice, two cases of Fanta soda, two containers of Rina vegetable oil, 20 kilos of potatoes, three bunches of bananas, 10 kilos of meat, some fish, vegetables, etc.
The big challenge of hers is that people do not buy when there is no money in circulation. Despite all this, she is deriving as much profit as she can, since food is the priority of all priorities of anyone. She is comfortable with her business.
In her plans, she wishes to build a house on her former parcel of land where the flow of lava of the erupting Nyiragongo volcano crossed. In addition, she is determined to cover the costs of her children's schooling on a regular basis.
Tabu thanks the MFI Hekima for the repeated loans she receives without any collateral at all because, given these loans, she says she is managing to provide for her family.
The group Adhadi is composed of seventeen members, most of whom are women.
Tabu E. est entrepreneur d'un cafeteria (mini restaurant) installé dans le quartier Virunga, avenue coin du marché. Elle a commencé son entreprise de mini Restaurant avec son fonds propre reçu de son mari après l'éruption du 16-17 février 2002 du volcan Nyiragongo qui a complètement détruit la ville de Goma. Madame Tabu E. s'est retrouvée aussi victime de cette éruption volcanique, sinistrée, sans abris. Son capital initial était 100$ et un peu plus tard, elle fut informée de l'IMF Hekima qui donne des crédits aux pauvres sans aucune garantie a travers les groupes de crédit, delà, elle bénéficie son 1er crédit de renforcement.
Avec le crédit de l'IMF Hekima, Tabu E. souhaite augmenter son chiffre d'affaire en achetant des aliments : 1 sacs de haricots, 25 kilos de riz, 2 caisses de sucrés Fanta, 2 bidons d'huile végétale Rina, 20 kilos de pommes de terre, 3 régimes de bananes, 10 kilos de viandes, des poissons, legumes, etc.
Le grand défi de madame Tabu E. c'est que les gens n'achètent pas lors qu'il n'y a pas d'argent en circulation. Malgré tout cela Tabu E. y tire son maximum de bénéfice, car la nourriture est la priorité des priorités de tout homme. Madame Tabu E. est confortable avec son business.
Dans ses projets, elle souhaite construire une maison dans son ancienne parcelle où la coulée de lave de l'éruption du volcan nyiragongo ait traversé. En outre, elle tient à payer régulièrement les frais scolaires de ses enfants.
Madame Tabu E. remercie l'IMF Hekima pour les crédits permanents qu'elle reçoit sans aucune garantie matérielle car grâce à ces crédits, elle parvient à subvenir aux besoins de sa famille dit- elle.
Ce groupe Ahadi est composé de 17 membres majoritairement femmes.

2004 Buick LeSabre Reviews
2004 Buick LeSabre Reviews and Owner Comments
Login to Review This Car
2004 Buick LeSabre (8 Reviews)
BEST CAR I'VE EVER OWNED. My Buick finally over 200,000 miles never gave me problems it has religiously been fully serviced at dealership. Never put a dime into minimal repairs got a 3800 V6 very nice car while still comfortable. I definitely would buy another Buick this car runs amazing went on several trips no problems. Has lots of spacious plenty of room it's a bigger car enough dimensions perfect sized car I have ever owned pln driving until it all breaks free.
Purchased this car when we were in MAINE.It was a program car from DETROIT,MI and had 5240 miles on it Rides like we are on a couch. Had to replace both front wheel Bearing Hubs and the usual Brakes.Gets great gas mileage 28-32 so can not complain for this size car. I now have 171,000 miles on it and hope to continue keeping it as compared to all these new cars all getting recalls.Best car I ever had. Thanks GM !!
Purchased used in North Carolina in 2008 (It was a NY car originally). Had 47,000+ miles then, has 311,000 now. Main problem is under body rust caused by salting roads) Most other problems caused by towing things since it does not have a towing package. Otherwise biggest problems are the front wheel bearings and o2 sensors, intake manifold will be another. So far it is holding up but is showing signs of needing replacement. Will wait until Fall 2014 to make the decision. If replacing front wheel bearings always buy the ones with lifetime warranty. Bearings are made cheaply so why pay for them more than once. If frame holds up (does not break due to salt) I believe the car could easily reach 400,000. It makes sense why Buick discontinued the Le Sabre ..... it is too good of a car and lasts way too long.
it's a wonderful car. I bought it used in 2000, and have had absolutely no big problems. It has 96,000 miles on it now. one thing, I had to have my heat sensor replaced twice, and it was not even that. after I wised up and put my buick gas cap back on it instead of the locked gas cap I bought at walmart, it has never had that problem again. it was confusing the computer, I think. the light turned off immediately upon putting the original cap back on. then I had to replace a right front brake pad. and then too, the top came off the console. I have that just laying there where it belongs though and no one is the wiser... I think this car is great for a senior woman as myself. I have taken several long trips. never any problems. Thank you GM and thank you Lord!
What a great car! Over 8 years old and 170,000 miles and still going strong. It's taken us on numerous long distance family vacations safely, smoothly and reliably. Minimal repairs. Love that 3800 Series II engine; I sure wish they still made it today. Today's cars can't touch its power or fuel economy!
I bought this car as a used company fleet car in 2005. I always get over 26 MPG in city driving, better than any of my friends! Remember Savannah is on the Atlantic Ocean, so it is very flat terrain here. I am fanatic about the oil changes & tire rotation. Quiet and comfortable ride! My third Buick. Only little things have gone wrong, like the backseat cup holder fell off & I just now replaced the brake pads. Good car & carries 6 passengers comfortably. Wish it had a "pass through" from the backseat to the trunk however. What's a drive train?

Lighting Retrofit Saves Shopping Center $42,500 Annually
An energy-efficient lighting retrofit performed by LumaTech at the Eagle Mountain Shopping Center in Batesville, Ark., is saving $42,580 in annual energy and maintenance costs and saw a six-month payback.
Before the lighting retrofit, the shopping center's parking lot was illuminated with 81 pole-mounted metal halide lamps, each consuming 1,080 watts of electricity. LumaTech selected 375W CeramaTek metal halide lamps as replacements. The new lamps fit directly into the existing fixtures, maintain the parking lot's average light levels and use 65 percent less energy than the originals.
In addition to the parking lot pole lighting, LumaTech performed a comprehensive retrofit of the shopping center's other outdoor lighting fixtures with a mix of LED and energy-efficient HID replacements. As a result, the entire outdoor lighting system now uses 65 percent less energy when it's in use and requires less frequent maintenance.
The retrofit also included the addition of an automated wireless control system. The system uses the shopping center's precise location to calculate sunset and sunrise times throughout the year to ensure that the lighting automatically comes on at the appropriate time. It also allowed the shopping center's lighting to be scheduled to automatically turn off at midnight every night, reducing the overall lighting hours by 50 percent.
Rebates available through Entergy Arkansas paid for a significant portion of the project's initial costs. The entire retrofit project cost just under $84,000, but it was eligible for nearly $63,000 in energy-efficiency rebates. As a result, the project's $21,000 cost to the facility owner was paid for in energy and maintenance savings in six months.
In addition to energy savings, the retrofit project significantly reduced the shopping center's lighting maintenance costs. For example, the 81 parking lot lights originally had a 9,000-hour rated life, and were on for about 12 hours a day. The replacements have a 50,000-hour rated life, and are on for about six hours a day, greatly reducing maintenance intervals. The control system also helps to reduce service calls by allowing for the system's settings to be adjusted remotely.

Meet our Student Staff
Tom Attwater
Tom is originally from Wichita, KS, but has now lived in Missoula for three years. He's a film student in The School of Media Arts and is hoping to combine his passion for outdoor recreation with filmmaking, photography, and graphic arts. Originally hired on as a rafting guide, Tom now works in multiple fields with the Outdoor Program.
Julia Boland
Julia was born in Montana, raised in Great Falls and Raynesford and she plans to call this beautiful state home for the rest of her life. She is a junior in English Literature and Wilderness Studies and during the academic year she is a kayak instructor here at the UM Outdoor Program. During her summers, Julia works as a wrangler and back country cook at the Rich Ranch in Seeley Lake. Her passions include reading stories of Montana, riding Dandy the horse and of course, kayaking.
Alan Bowman
Alan is from Kalispell, and is the Outdoor Program's bike mechanic and rental shop student manager. He has over 4 years of bike mechanic training, along with a lifetime of taking care of his own bike. Alan is very big into sports (of all kinds) and the outdoors. He has also done TaeKwonDo for 14 years and won the AAU Nationals in 2009. Alan is currently going to school for a masters in Athletic Training and would like to work for a sports team of some sort after graduating (Seattle Mariners). He is an avid traveler and would like to go to the six major continents in his lifetime.
Kim Covill
Kim is a graduate student seeking her MFA in Creative Writing with a focus in Nonfiction. She teaches whitewater kayaking, cross-country skiing, ski camping, and leads backpacking trips for the university. Originally from New Hampshire, she has lived and worked on rivers and mountains of the west for the past eight years.
Zoe Leake
Zoe is from the backwoods of Tennessee and moved to Missoula in 2014 to become the next Resource Conservation, wilderness, and climate change expert. She enjoys backpacking, snowboarding, and climbing as main sources of entertainment. She also enjoys yodeling and training her fleet of llamas for a private llama-packing enterprise. Wilderness is Zoe's deepest passion, and she hopes to spread the love and respect for the outdoors to all.
Nico Matallana
There is a fathomless perfection in the endless quiet hikes through forests, across streams and over ridgelines. Something divine in the way time slows down and the body strains beyond infinity at the crux of a beautiful rock-climb. It is impossible to express.
This has become, in many ways, what Nico lives for. Throughout his life, nature has kept him away from bad influences and taught responsibility. Nico now studies the ways in which humanity can better coexist with the natural world. Being able to provide the opportunity to find fulfillment, a sense of identity, or peace of mind is truly an honor to him, for he could never give back how much Nature has given to him.
Mack Moore
Mack is my name and climbing is my game.
I grew up in Cincinnati, Ohio, where I was exposed to close to zero, wild outdoor experiences. I had always enjoyed walking down the street from my house and exploring a small patch of woods, where a creek ran through. I remember building trails for biking, making zip-lines, and finding obscure ways to climb trees (driven in rail road spikes; my first groundup experience!). After high school I was fortunate enough to take a NOLS course in the pacific northwest. NOLS introduced me to the outdoors and climbing! The first time I climbed I was totally hooked. After my NOLS course I wanted to be in a wild place, so Montana it was!
Here I am now, finishing up my degree in Resource Conservation, working for the Outdoor Program and having a blast exploring the mountains in Montana.
Neil Moore
Neil is a Californian that enjoys anything adventurous outside. While rock climbing is his main passion, it's not uncommon to see him backpacking, kayaking, surfing or taking nature photos. With his passion for the outdoors comes a love of wildlife, which is why Neil is a Wildlife Biology major, also looking at a minor in Climate Change. Neil is currently the Climbing Wall student manager.
Molly Moran
Molly is seeking her Health & Wellness degree through Integrative Nutrition with a focus on implementing outdoor activity and spirituality into more lives. She is a whitewater rafting guide and leads backing trips for the university. Originally from Vermont, she has been living in the Pacific Northwest for the past five years.
Danielle Sanderson
Danielle was born and raised in beautiful Napa Valley, California. As soon as she could walk she was on skis and trails, and ever since she's had an undying passion for the outdoors. Her love of nature intensified as she continued her journey to Missoula, and you can find her riding her bike around town, at the climbing wall with a contagious smile, or at home jamming on her guitar. Any outdoor recreational activity you can think of, she's tried, but her most devout are climbing, slack-lining, yoga, hiking, and backpacking. She revels in her major of Environmental Studies with a minor in Climate Change, and would love to strike up a conversation about anything, especially local food and gardening.
Nicole Thelen
Nicole was raised in Bozeman, MT, twenty minutes away from some of the best skiing around, an hour away from Yellowstone, and a five minute walk into the Rocky Mountains. She was fortunate enough to have a family as crazy about the outdoors as she was, and grew up with many adventures into the woods, mountains, and deserts. Her mountain man father started her up rad multi-pitches as soon as she could fit into a harness, and she's been hooked to cliffs ever since. She has a habit of dragging uncultured friends up mountains, or at least to the gym. As far as she's concerned, the more people who take advantage of the wonderful wilderness around them, the better.
Boston Wakeham
Boston is a Midwestern guy, raised in the rolling hills of Iowa. With limited climbing and public lands, he was strongly drawn west to immerse himself in outdoor recreation. Before returning to school, he served as a crew leader for the Montana Conservation Corps for a few years working on local trails. Now he is back in school studying parks, tourism, and recreation management and resource conservation. Someday he hopes to combine his two majors to inspire young adults to get involved in recreation and conservation on our public lands. Boston enjoys dabbling in several activities including backpacking, mountain biking, climbing, rafting, and kayaking. Oddly though, he avoids the snow in winter. Instead, he is found hibernating, hosting potlucks and playing very dorky board games.
Eric Wall
When I was 16 I used to take these really long day hikes through the prairie lands of Billings, Montana. I'd take copious amounts of water and a couple of oranges and just hoof it any direction that peeked my curiosity. I think I was always looking for a different interaction with my environment, one that would be unique from day to day life. After a long mentoring session with several seasoned folks in the vertical community I began to take small groups out to the local crags myself, showing them the world that captivated me so thoroughly. There's a kind of full circle feeling I get when I here someone say to me as they near the top of a serene line in nature, "This is like nothing else", I couldn't agree more.
Keatan Williams
Keatan grew up in Indiana hiking, fishing and camping. He is a first year law student studying natural resource law. After graduating college in Indiana, he moved to Yosemite National Park and then Telluride, CO. Keatan teaches ski camping, intro to climbing, and works the climbing wall. He enjoys skiing, climbing rock and ice, and taking pictures of his pet cat, Kanye.

Dennis Tooley loves to laugh at the challenges of life. From the crazy predicaments the family pets seem to get into to the rigors of being part of an active family, Tooley finds a way to see the bright side of life regardless of how many obstacles lie in its path.
For more than a decade, Tooley has used his gift of laughter to entertain thousands of people.
The professional comedian also suffers from multiple sclerosis.
Tooley and his wife moved to Indianapolis in November 1999. At the time, he worked for The Salvation Army, helping establish the Fountain Square facility. When the job was complete, both the couple decided to relocate permanently on the southside. Today, they live in Whiteland.
Initially, Tooley set out to be a motivational humorist, helping young people deal with life's challenges with a lighthearted approach.
"People would say, 'You should be a comedian,'" Tooley said. "I was already doing some comedy with the motivational speeches. I backed away from some of the more serious material and focused more on the comedy," he said.
He had always been drawn to comedy. Some of the people who inspired him the most were members of his family.
"I grew up in a family with a pretty good sense of humor," he said. "Reality is that my dad and uncles would goof around, singing and playing."
He refers to one of his uncles as "Uncle Happy." The other, Uncle Tony, is also a huge part of his life.
In addition, Tooley remembers watching the antics of Harvey Korman and Tim Conway on the Carol Burnett show. Many times it was just a facial expression from one comedian to the other that would lead to the hysterical laughter and the audience in stitches. Tooley learned from them and others.
His comedy show is always family-friendly. His routine tends to be about the silly things that can happen to all of us. His comedy is meant to help people enjoy a good laugh, unwind from a busy and stressful day and put their problems on hold for a little while.
As a kid, Tooley said, he always wanted to have a career that would help people. Even though he didn't grow up with the idea he would become a professional comedian, he often thought how he wanted to help others. He believes his comedy does that.
Dealing with multiple sclerosis has had its challenges, Tooley said. The disease is unpredictable.
Some days are more demanding than others. Tooley said he takes heart in knowing that tomorrow is a new day and perhaps one that is less of a challenge than what today has been.
"There are days when physically I just don't have the energy, but overall I think I have the ability to live the moment I am in. I can see that life doesn't have to be lived so seriously. It is my faith keeps me focused, that God has what is best for us in store," he said.
Tooley admits he has let that question "Why me?" enter into his mind a time or two. He learned quickly, however, that sitting back and thinking negative thoughts doesn't serve much of a purpose.
"I don't find that that helps me. I would rather ask 'What am I supposed to be learning right now?'"
It is the people who are around Tooley who most inspire him, he said. Knowing people in his church who have faced the loss of a spouse, the battle of cancer, the challenge of raising autistic children, yet manage to have a positive attitude, remind him that life is indeed a journey, a journey that can be a positive one despite the challenges we are forced to face.
Tooley has turned to his faith to not only help those around him but to fight his own battle against MS.
"There's power in the word," Toomey said. "If you focus on the peace and grace that God provides, you can make it through."
Carol Edwards is a fourth-grade teacher and has taught at Greenwood schools since 1978.

I've just discovered on of the neatest shell tricks I've seen since [
Ctrl-r][]. If you are in [zsh][]and hit
Alt-. (or
ESC-., if you have a misconfigured terminal like I do) then the last argument from the last command will appear on the command line.
This may seem like no big deal, but it saves me a lot of editing on the command line itself. If you aren't using zsh now, maybe this will convince you to give it a try.

The project I am working on, requires thorough understanding of programming in one language and various (8) messaging systems to implement the module. The best route to acquire the needed high level of understanding in those areas is to get the appropriate instructions in a formal setting. In the contrary, if one is learning these concepts it is likely that he/she will overlook an essential but theoretic part of the programming language or the messaging systems. This in turn means, when generating new ideas and turning ideas into proposals, one will face difficulty. I am one of those people who learned some programming languages by my own, hence overlooked theoretical concepts that are now handy in the research area I am working on. On the bright side, I now learned that a programmer needs to pay substantial attention to theories and related concepts if he claims to know the language. Therefore, I have decided to go back and evaluate my working knowledge and understanding in the various programming languages I claim to know.
My skills at learning new things are also dependent on what I already know on a related area. For example, I had to investigate and summarize 11 messaging systems which took me 2 weeks to finish 75%. In my conversation with the senior programmer, l learned that the task can be done in two days. I am not sure if it's just me but I have decided to take the task to my programming professor at Berea College and ask him how long is fair to finish the investigation for 11 messaging systems. Overall, I am not learning super fast. But I am learning. On the other hand, one I learned, I am fast to apply the skills and turn ideas into proposals. In the future, I will make it a point to find out how I can work with different systems and learn in short period of time as speed is the essence in industry work as well.

With the Flow Kids' Micron Youth Snowboard Binding your kid can spend less time strapping in and more time progressing. It has Flow's signature rear-entry system to make it quick and easy to get strapped in and ready to ride. Once the straps are set to the right tightness for your kid's boot, all he or she has to do is pull back the reclining highback, slip his or her foot in, and lock the highback for the perfect fit every time.
The Uniback highback and rockered baseplate are made with molded plastic for a soft flex that allows for easy turns, tweaked tricks, and all-day comfort. The Rockered baseplate also makes minimal contact with the board to channel power directly where it's needed, and it has rounded edges to allow the board to flex naturally underfoot. EVA inserts in the footbed absorb shock and vibrations to cushion harsh landings and smooth chatter.
- Molded composite Uniback highback
- Molded composite rockered baseplate
- Exofit Powerstrap
- EVA toe and heel inserts
- Mini-ratchets
