Caller ID is a standard Hosted PBX feature which enables incoming calls to be identified by their Caller ID. An incoming caller's ID is displayed on the users phone screen.
Similarly, all Hosted PBX extensions can be set to display a certain Caller ID when making outgoing calls. This is useful if a particular phone belongs to a particular department or if an individual wishes to display his/her direct number when placing outgoing calls.
This essential phone feature allows users to transfer calls from their phone. Calls can be transferred to another user, voicemail, an external number, and other destinations.
Call transfers can be done in two distinct ways. The first method is called a Blind Transfer and it will connect two calls immediately. The second is called an Attended Transfer, and this method connects the person making the transfer with the intended recipient first. This gives the transferring user a chance to inform the recipient who is on the line before the actual transfer is made.
Call parking enables a call to be placed in a call parking lot with an assigned number. This parked call can be picked up by any user with any phone. The caller who is placed in the call parking lot will have on-hold music played to them while they are awaiting a pick-up. Calls are assigned specific parking lot numbers upon transfer. The parking lot number is essential to this system, so it is imperative that the person transferring the call notes which parking lot number the call is placed in – the number is read to the transferring user after dialling the extension for the parking lot. Calls can be answered simply by dialling the parking lot number.
This system is extremely useful when there are phones located where there may be more than 1 user (e.g. factory floor, newsroom, meeting room, etc…). Calls can be placed in a parking lot, and the receptionist can simply contact who the intended recipient is and tell them the code to access the call (e.g. "Jill your husband is on line 76" – Jill simply dials 76 on any phone and is connected to her husband).
This feature allows calls which would usually originate at a given location to be forwarded to another. Once call forwarding is activated, all calls are redirected to the intended destination immediately. Calls can be forwarded to another extension, phone number (such as a cell phone), an IVR, and more.
An example of this feature would be if a particular user had to leave the office for a given amount of time and wanted to receive their phone calls at another location.
Call recording is a useful feature which enables a calling or called party to record a conversation using their phone. Call recording can be set to always record, never record, or record strictly on an on-demand basis. Call recording can be useful for training and/or quality assurance. Some jurisdictions/countries do not allow a call to be recorded without prior consent, please check your local laws before recording a phone call.
VOIPITS gives you the ability to view all phone calls in a graphical interface, this is useful for businesses who need to keep tabs on phone calls and certain individuals/extensions who cannot be directly observed or monitored constantly.
Voicemail is perhaps one of the most known and used feature of a phone system. Voicemail allows callers to leave a voice message which can be played back at a later date/time. By default, voicemails have two separate conditions/messages which can be played. 'unavailable calls' – when calls are un-answered: 'busy calls' – when a user sets their phone to Do Not Disturb mode (click for more info); When a call reaches a users voicemail, the caller is prompted to leave a message after a pre-recorded (or automated) message. Additional options can be set to route calls should they reach a users voicemail (see VMX Locater for more information).
The voicemail to email Hosted PBX feature is a subscribed feature which when enabled, sends a copy of a user's voicemail message to their specified email address. This feature allows users to listen to their voicemail messages via email or smart-phone device without having to physically use their desk-phone. This feature has many inherent advantages, however due to requirements which necessitate the use of an external email server, subscription to our voicemail to email service may be mandatory in order for this feature to function.
An Interactive Voice Response(IVR)/Auto-attendant feature is perhaps one of the most desirable features for a business PBX. An IVR plays an automated message to all incoming callers. This message plays to the caller, specifies the options which are available to them, and subsequently prompts them to make their selection based on the nature of the call. Once the caller chooses the appropriate option, the call can be routed to the intended party, extension, department, etc. IVR's are very robust and efficient tools in any business environment, and work to decrease the amount of time spent needlessly on the phone with a caller. Since the entire system is fully automated, calls are routed with more efficiency, and employees are able to maximize their productivity.
The do not disturb feature allows users to set a condition on their handset phones which would automatically reject a call. This is somewhat similar to call forwarding, except that any incoming call will terminate to the users 'busy' voicemail (regular unanswered calls terminate to the 'unavailable' voicemail). This feature is useful when a user is occupied with an important task and cannot afford to take a call (e.g. important meeting, important task, eating lunch, etc…).
A Call Queue is a feature which places callers into a regulated on-hold system of priority such that the caller with the highest priority (usually the caller on hold the longest) is answered before a caller with a lower one. Call Queues are extremely useful when handling a large number of incoming callers at the same time. Callers can be placed in a queue to be answered by the first available representative (support representative), or placed in a queue which can be answered by a specific agent (sales rep.). While a caller is waiting in a queue, special music on hold and/or messages can be played to them. Users are also able to log in and out of certain queues. This can be useful for users who wish to take lunch and not have their phone ring, or for situations where additional agents can be of use.
Queued calls have numerous options and configurations associated with them. A few of them as follows:
Music on hold is a feature which plays music to callers who have been placed on hold or are currently in a call queue. The music can be customized to play music pertaining to the demographic base of the callers, or simply present the callers with a number of custom recorded messages relating to the potential nature of the call. Another option is to record a message which can be played to callers to inform them of a potential issue which has been made aware (e.g. "we are currently aware of the escaped monkeys and are working to apprehend them. If this call is not concerning the ravenous monkeys, then please continue holding").
The Office Hours feature makes it possible to route a call based on the time, day of the week, or month. This feature can be useful for routing calls differently after business hours, during weekends, holidays, etc. A good example of this feature in use would be to play to callers a message indicating that the business is currently closed. The message can then inform the caller of the regular business hours and prompt them to leave a message or simply call back during business hours.
The Call Screening feature, when enabled, prevents a number from calling into the phone system. This is useful to prevent unwanted calling/solicitation, prevent harassment and/or abuse, stop telemarketing companies who just won't give up, and more.
The Call Flow Control feature is a unique feature which gives control over the routing of incoming calls with the use of feature codes. This feature is useful in a situation where an incoming number/route would need to be changed on-the-fly.
A good example of this feature in use would be when an office closes for the day. A receptionist (or user) simply dials the code (or presses the BLF button assigned to it) to enable or disable the Call Flow Control.
For example:
Your Hosted PBX is capable of grouping together many extensions into a single dialled extension. For example, if there are sales agents with extensions 220, 221, 222, and 223, then it is possible to assign a 'Sales' ring group which when dialled, will call all of the phones simultaneously. Additional options can be configured such as: the ring strategy (ring all, ring sequentially, ring first available, and more), max ring time, announcement (to be played to the caller prior to dialling the group), whether to ring or play music, and more.
This feature is useful for IVR's and call queues as incoming calls can be directed to an entire department with ease. This can also be useful if you wish to contact a group of phones internally (technical support agents). It is as simple as assigning those phones to a ring group (such as 601), and dialling it from any system phone.
The conference room feature of your Hosted PBX works to create a meeting room whereby users (both internally and externally) can call in and talk to one another. Conference rooms can be moderated by an admin user, and as well can be password protected to prevent unwanted callers from accessing it. The conference room can be accessed by users internally by dialling the conference room access number. The conference room can be accessed by external users by entering a numerical code after dialling a number.
For example, your conference room can be linked to your IVR message without anyone ever knowing. A caller would dial your regular business number, and once they reached the IVR message, they would enter the access code (#XXX) followed by the password, and they would be connected to the conference room. Conference's can easily be setup by contacting one or more parties via extension dialling. This conference, however, has restricted functionality, and may not work with outside parties.
This is a feature which can be accessed both externally and internally. When the directory is called, the caller is prompted to enter the first three letters of a user's first or last name. The directory will then search and match the input to the most probable user and play back that user's name for verification.
An intercom is a great feature to have in an environment where messages need to quickly be relayed to users across distances or offices. Paging/Intercom allows users to contact each other directly and immediately through the speaker phone (intercom and paging are automatically answered). Intercom allows one user to contact another user (or users in a ring group) instantly. All parties are able to speak and listen to each other. Paging allows one user to contact a group of users simultaneously. This differs from the intercom feature due to the fact that it is a one-way audio signal, meaning that those being paged cannot speak back to the pager. These two features have many advantageous uses. One such use would be efficient in a large work environment such as a warehouse or large office. If a user had an important message to relay to the entire office, they would simply dial the page code which contacted all departments/offices, and speak the message. Everyone (save for those on the phone) would instantly be notified.
Note: Intercom and paging may not work on certain phones. Intercom and paging are not available on the Hosted PBX phone system.
Busy Lamp Field (BLF) is a lighted (green or red) indicator on your phone (or expansion module)Examples of BLF which can indicate status are:
The Call Spy feature enables certain privileged users to listen in on any phone call. This feature does not allow the user using call spy to interact with any member of the call being spied on. This feature also does not alert the party being spied on that someone else is listening.
This feature can be useful if an executive wishes to listen to an active call live without the call party knowing.
Direct Inward System Access (DISA) is a system feature which allows a user to access the phone system from external sources. This feature allows users (for example, on a mobile device) to connect into the phone system in order to check voicemail, place calls, dial extensions, and more. This feature works by prompting users to first dial an applicable number (this can be your regular business number or a special number specifically for this purpose), then (this is strongly recommended) dial a special feature code which will then prompt the user to enter a special PIN code. After entering the credentials, the user has access to your system almost as if they were at their desk. An example of this would be if an employee needed to contact a client when they are not currently in the office. The employee could dial the special number, enter the feature code (#XXXXX), enter the PIN (XXXXX), and proceed to place a call. This is beneficial if the employee (or employer) only wanted clients to see the work caller ID number, and not the employee's personal or work mobile caller ID. Another unique benefit to this feature is that the caller can use the phone system's long distance service without worrying about paying ridiculous mobile long distance per-minute fees. In effect, DISA can work to be a calling card for employees.
The browser application of certain phones allows for extreme IP phone functionality and flexibility. In essence, the browser application screen on your phone works like a web-browser, with some limitations. These browsers connect to the Internet to provide users with information such as weather, traffic, finance, world news, and more. These browsers are fully customizable, and be configured to display a vast array of information to users. An example of this would be if a travel agent wished to provide forecast information to a particular destination. The user could simply select their browser while on the phone with a client, and read back the information in real-time without having to use a computer. There are many distinct advantages of the browser feature; however, it is only accessible on certain phones.
Dictation is a useful feature which allows a user to record audio from their phone. The recording can then be sent to any email address specified to be listened to later.

Western Conference 1st Round Matchup: Lakers vs Hornets
Posted by By at 16 April, at 05 : 50 AM Print
And then there were sixteen.
After an always exciting regular season in the NBA, the Playoffs 2011 begin Sunday, April 17, 2011. There have been some surprises in the lineup with last minute clinches, but one team nobody is surprised to see is the two time defending champions, Lakers, as they seek a 3peat.
Supporters and naysayers alike expressed some signs of doubt in the beginning; after all, the Lakers did display terrible inconsistency, including losing to the Cavaliers right before the All Stars–a team whose poor record is only rivaled by Minnesota. That loss sealed the 3 game losing streak for the Lakers after a 7 game trip.
But what a change of events post All Stars; the Lakers were 17-1, then lost 5 games, finally winning 2 games which allowed them to clinch the No. 2 spot on the West. Though the Lakers went into overtime with a much lower ranked Kings (a team who won't even be in the playoffs), after blowing a 20 point lead, Laker fans still don't seem to be worried.
Because after all, as Phil Jackson pointed out in a post-game interview, the regular season is irrelevant, including the team's post All Star performance and OT appearance with the Kings. He even went on to say the Lakers are the "middle of the pack", further emphasizing his focus on post season, and winning his 12th title as head coach, 6thwith the Lakers.
In the first round, No . 2 Lakers face the No. 7 Hornets, who, though an impressive team, don't really have the offense to compete with Lakers' defense. Some obvious advantages for the Lakers are, of course, home court advantage. Additionally, in the regular season, the Lakers have went 4-0 against New Orleans. More bad news for Hornets, their former All Star David West is out for the post season due to a torn ACL. Chris Paul stands to be the only threat that Phil Jackson and the Lakers have to face, but even so, he has not been playing to his potential due to a sore knee.
Though not A game, Chris Paul definitely doesn't have D game either. He is sure to cause Fisher some trouble, forcing Fisher to need to look to Gasol and Bynum to get touches offensively. But outside of Point Guards, the Hornets have no answer to the Lakers, including their bench. Even with Bynum's bruised knee, Okafor is going to have to play at 110% to have a chance at stopping him. Belinelli, Ariza, Landry, and the bench also have no significant answer for the Lakers' Bryant, Artest, Gasol and bench's strong defense, experience and talent.
The first round is a no brainer. Lakers will come out on top and advance in the playoffs. The Hornets are 0-4 against the Lakers and coming off a 0-3 losing streak as their regular season came to a close; this is not promising news for them. Additionally, as highlighted, their starters or bench can't contend competitively against the Lakers. Unfortunately for Big Easy fans, my prediction is Lakers will probably have to go broom shopping (Lakers 4-0).
You can catch the excitement as it all begins Sunday on ABC 12:30pm/3:30 Eastern.

Syrian Grand Mufti Hassoun: Syria fights for its firm stances
Syria is fighting for its unswerving stance, and was punished for it kept Lebanon undivided and declined to take part in the invasion of Iraq, Grand Mufti of the Republic, Dr. Ahmad Badreddin Hassoun said.
During an open meeting with the national media cadres at al-Assad Library in Damascus on Sunday, attended by Information Minister Omran al-Zoubi, Hassoun said "Islam is universal and our nationalism has a humanitarian message."
The mufti called on the Syrian journalists to substantiate the news before making them public, urging them to embrace faithfulness in relaying information.
"The Syrian media needs a new birth based on innovation and benefitting from the ideological plurality as it is intellectual richness and openness, rather than fanaticism," Hassoun said, considering that national media is the first "line of defense" to give a true image about the homeland.
Hassoun underscored the role of the ministries of education, higher education, culture and information along with the religious establishment in bringing up generations capable of shouldering their responsibilities.
Hassoun hailed Syria's steadfastness over the past two years, stressing the necessity of realizing economic steadfastness and urging business men to return to Syria and help in rebuilding it.
Hassoun wondered at blocking Syrian TV channels, recalling that he has been warning since 1997 of a sectarian war that al-Jazeera Channel seeks to whip up in the region.
The mufti called for according care to the religious discourse in Syria that is the home for moderate Islam as Islam's true message is to "open hearts and illuminate minds."
Hassoun highlighted the Western media disinformation campaigns against Syria intended to form pro-Western public opinion.

The UAE's Port of Fujairah will ban the use of open loop ship exhaust cleaners once the IMO 2020 sulphur regulations come into place, according to a port document sent to Reuters.
In the faxed document, Fujairah's harbour master said: "Please be advised that Port of Fujairah has decided to ban the use of open-loop scrubbers in its waters. Ships will have to use compliant fuel once the IMO 2020 sulphur cap comes into force."
The document was sent to agents, bunkering companies and oil terminal users. Fujairah is one of the world's busiest oil terminals for shipments of oil from the Arabian Gulf.
The International Maritime Organization (IMO) will prohibit ships from using fuels with sulphur content above 0.5 percent from January 1st, 2020, compared with 3.5 percent today.
Those ships still using heavy fuel oil with high sulphur content will need to fit scrubbers to their exhaust systems, but there have been moves to restrict the use of open-loop scrubbers in various jurisdictions.
The other types of scrubber - closed-loop and hybrid - are still accepted for use in many locations.
Open loop scrubbers are cheaper, but while they prevent sulphur emissions from ships escaping into the atmosphere, heavy metals and sulphur end up being discharged into seas with washing water.
Acting on environmental concerns, Singapore announced in November a ban on the discharge of "wash water" used in ships to scrub engine exhaust from 2020.
China last month banned discharges from open-loop scrubbers across all rivers and ports along its coastline from January 1st, 2019.

Comprehensive Care for Colorectal Cancer in Texas
Colorectal cancer is found in the rectum or colon and requires expert care and treatment. Colorectal cancer affects both women and men. Its treatments and side effects may impact the quality of life of a patient. Once diagnosed, the patient should consult with expert physicians to understand their condition and choose the best treatment option.
Most cancer centers offer personalized and comprehensive care with properly developed treatment plans that are tailored to the needs of each patient. Individualized care helps a patient to maintain their quality of life and as well provides treatment options that are targeted to their type and stage of colorectal cancer. Good cancer care centers often take an integrative approach which combines colorectal cancer treatments with techniques of managing any side effects to treat the whole person.
Here are some of the comprehensive procedures in cancer care:
- Colorectal cancer screening – Screening helps to find colon cancer at an early stage to provide the chance for effective treatment and cure. Screening for colon cancer reduces the risk of a patient dying from the disease. Recommendations for screening should start at the age of 50, but people at high risk should begin screening at 45 years of age. There are several screening tests including colonoscopy, blood tests and imaging tests.
- Treatment for colon cancer – The treatment for colorectal cancer depends on the stage of the disease. Colorectal cancer has three initial treatments including radiation, chemotherapy and surgery. Other treatment options include immunotherapy, targeted therapy and various operations such as robotic and invasive surgery. Comprehensive cancer centers offer a multi-disciplinary system of care that comprises of a team of physicians working together to treat colon cancer. They tailor a patient's treatment plan to cater to their unique needs.
Palliative care is also offered by cancer centers to provide relief from pain and symptoms of serious illnesses. Palliative care is provided by specialists who work with the patients and their family members and doctors to provide complementary support to the ongoing treatments. This helps colorectal cancer patients to improve their quality of life.

Ahead of Cockpit Arts Finance workshop with MyCake on 11th August 2010: Financial Planning for Growth we're featuring Top Tips by Ellen O'Hara, Head of Business Development at Cockpit Arts.
The question that I'm asked more than any other in my role at Cockpit is 'how should I price my work?!'
There's no doubt that getting your pricing right is a crucial part of your marketing and business strategy. So what is there to consider when making the pricing decision?
In the workshop The Price is Right, which is part of our rolling programme of Making It Workshops, we look at three key areas: Cost, Market and Value, as well as how different pricing strategies fit with the overall goals for your practice and business.
Over the next few weeks, I'll be posting a series of top tips, looking at pricing from these four different perspectives:
The Pricing Decision # 1: Price and Cost
Your first consideration when setting prices will usually involve looking at what costs are involved when producing your work. The 'Cost-plus' approach to pricing involves setting price by starting with the cost of creating a product, and then adding a mark-up. The mark-up provides you with your profit margin and so the cost-plus approach almost guarantees that you will not sell at a loss.
Mark-ups can be based on industry standards, individual expert opinions, or widely accepted rules of thumb. I usually advise makers to try and double their cost price to arrive at their wholesale price. In other words, add a mark up of 100% or x 2. And then add a mark up of around 2.5 on the wholesale price to arrive at the retail price. This is equal to multiplying your cost price by 5 to arrive at your retail price, or adding a mark up of 400%. This should ensure that there's enough profit to cover some of the other costs associated with running your business.
The disadvantage of this approach is that if costs increase, the price of the product must also increase. The price of each product is therefore dependent on how many costs it creates.
The key to using this approach effectively is to be as accurate as possible about actual costs. So what should you include?
- Firstly there are the costs that directly relate to the production of the work such as materials, the cost of outworkers and packaging. These costs will tend to vary as the volume of work you produce and sell changes and can be refered to as variable direct costs.
- Then there is the cost of your time (if you produce the work yourself) which will be based on your hourly rate.
- Finally you also need to think about making a contribution to the day to day running costs of your business, or overheads (also refered to as fixed costs). This will include things like studio rent, day to day administration costs, PAYE staff costs and marketing. Some makers build this into their hourly rate.
A cost-plus figure generally provides a basis for the lowest price acceptable, but should not be the only consideration. It takes into account the cost and profit side of buying and selling, but it neglects demand for your work and what is going on in your market.
Another way of using costs to determined price is 'target pricing' where are a target price is made, and then costs are adjusted so that that price can be achieved. However, this is often very difficult to achieve for designer-makers who produce in small batches because costs are less flexible.

This book is not about Grant's military campaigns; rather, it concerns his struggle to finish his still-celebrated memoirs before cancer killed him, in order that his wife and children would have an income after he died. It is also a love story: about how so many people adored Grant for his goodness and unwavering trust in them. This made him, tragically, an easy mark for the many who would exploit that trust, but provided enduring inspiration for those who deserved it. At the end of the book, when the author describes how a bugler playing taps at Grant's tomb caused General William Tecumseh Sherman to begin sobbing, I was sobbing right there with him.
Grant was diagnosed with cancer of the tongue and throat in 1884. (Remarkably, considering the long hold tobacco has had on this country, Grant's doctors quite quickly and confidently attributed the affliction to Grant's life-long cigar habit.) At the time, Grant and his family were newly impecunious, following a huge financial swindle by his partners in an investment firm. All of Grant's family had invested there also. It turned out Grant didn't even own his house; one of his partner's had offered to take care of the purchase, but had taken the money instead. Grant was furious; he had trusted these men, just as he had trusted so many in his presidential administration who also had succumbed to venality and graft. Grant, throughout his life, conducted his affairs as he had led the Union Army; he found men he thought worthy, delegated tasks to them, and then counted on them to carry out his directives. But too many men lacked Grant's moral strength. In the end, Grant had no choice but to take care of his affairs on his own.
For the last year of his life, Grant struggled to put together a two-volume memoir that would prevent his family from financial ruin. He was in immense pain and eventually had a tumor the size of "two fists put together" on the side of his throat. He wrote that he was plagued by hemorrhaging, strangulation, and exhaustion. Nevertheless, he carried on valiantly. Three days after he was done with the book, and months after the doctors thought he couldn't live another day, he finally let go and passed away.
Grant was originally to publish his memoirs with Robert Underwood Johnson, but Mark Twain offered him better terms, and he went with Twain. Nevertheless, he remained on good terms with Johnson and prepared four articles for him that final year in addition to working on his book. Johnson came to see Grant shortly before his death, and later wrote:
"I could hardly keep back the tears as I made my farewell to the great soldier who saved the Union for all its people and to the man of warm and courageous heart who had fought his last long battle for those he so tenderly loved."
Grant had been heralded for personal bravery in the Mexican War, leading attacks at San Cosme and moving soldiers across the cholera-infested Isthmus of Panama. And of course his valor in the Civil War is more widely known. But those who watched him in his final year contend that his bravest act of all was his perseverance and shear determination to stay alive until his memoir was in place for his family's future. As one clergyman later said, "the sight of Grant at work while in pain was the finest sermon at which he had ever been present."
Discussion: Grant was a remarkable figure whose generosity of spirit was rivaled only by Lincoln's. Following "his simple, gracious, generous treatment of Robert E. Lee and his men at Appomattox Court House," for the rest of his life Lee never allowed a negative word to be said about Grant in his presence. One of Lee's great generals, James Longstreet (who also happened to be Julia Grant's cousin and had been Grant's best man at his wedding to Julia), remarked at Grant's death:
"He was the truest as well as the bravest man who ever lived. … Grant was a modest man, a simple man, a man believing in the honesty of his fellows, true to his friends, faithful to traditions, and of great personal honor."
There is a wonderful story in the book about how both former Federals and Confederates in Congress worked to get Grant's military pension reinstated (he had to forfeit it when he became U.S. President), even physically turning back the clock in the U.S. Capitol before Congress adjourned so that the bill could be passed before Congress got dismissed.
Both Union and Confederate former generals served as pallbearers.
Evaluation: Although this is a work of nonfiction, under the able hands of the entertaining historian Charles Bracelen Flood, this book is a page-turner that has you not only reaching for the Kleenex box, but aching to get to Grant's memoir itself, which has been lauded as one of the finest presidential memoirs ever written. (Mark Twain wrote, "General Grant's book is a great, unique, and unapproachable literary masterpiece.") I didn't see this book as a hagiography; it's really meant to be an examination of Grant's last year, taken at face value. From historical biographies, we know that Grant was human, and a man of his times. In other words, he had his flaws as do most people. But like Lincoln, he was also a man who could transcend his times and rise above them. I don't think you can come away from this book with many negative impressions about the last year, at any rate, of one of our greatest public figures.
Rating: 4.25/5

Athlete Bios
Dave Nettle
Dave Nettle started backpacking at the age of 10 in the Pacific Northwest and never looked back. He took up rock climbing and mountaineering in high school, which over the years has taken him to mountain ranges across the world, with travels and ascents throughout Europe, Asia, North and South America. Since 2002 he has been an Industrial Rope Access Instructor for Ropeworks, training people to work at height on ropes. When he's not climbing you will usually find him mountain biking or backcountry skiing. He lives in Reno with his wife Cadence.
"As co-founder of the Winter Speaker Series, Dave Nettle has been cultivating mountain community in North Lake Tahoe through his compelling tales of adventure for well over thirty years, and it's always such an honor to kick off the series with him." – Brendan Madigan, Winter Speaker Series event coordinator and owner of Alpenglow Sports
Jim Morrison
Benefits Acheive Tahoe
Based in Tahoe City, California, Morrison has spent his entire life skiing and climbing in the Sierra Nevada. He and his brother, John, also an accomplished mountain athlete, grew up in Walnut Creek, three hours from Squaw Valley, skiing and chasing the likes of Scott Schmidt every weekend through high school. Jim started spending ski seasons in Squaw in 1990, eventually settling there permanently. Known for his big heart and big engine, Jim quietly excels in most feats he attempts, whether it's an Ironman triathlon or climbing El Capitan in Yosemite all while running his own custom home construction business in Tahoe. As a premier member of the The North Face athlete roster, Jim is the recent first descentionist of the coveted Lhotse Couloir.
Kit Deslauriers
Benefits Sierra Community House
When Kit DesLauriers skied Mt. Everest in 2006, she became the first person in the world to ski the 7 Summits, meaning she skied from the summit of the highest mountain on each of the seven continents. The 50-year-old mother of two is also the first female to win back-to-back Freeride World Tour championships, solo the Grand Teton (in between coaching soccer practice and picking her daughters up from school), ski the Polish Glacier on Aconcagua and make a complete ski descent of Vinson Massif, the highest mountain in Antarctica, among other feats. Beyond the 7 Summits, Kit has skied first descents in Alaska's Brooks Range, has explored and helped preserve the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge and was named a National Geographic Adventurer of the Year.
Kit grew up skiing in New England (her grandfather built the first chairlift at Vermont's Stowe Mountain Resort). She graduated from the University of Arizona with a degree in environmental political science, where she took up trail running and rock climbing and earned a scholarship from the National Outdoor Leadership School to spend a semester in Alaska. After a decade in Telluride, Colorado, working on ski patrol at Telluride Ski Resort and with the elite San Miguel County Search and Rescue Team, she moved to the Tetons, where she lives today. While standing atop a peak in Sikkim, India in 1998, Kit decided she wanted to be a ski mountaineer and while competing on the freeskiing circuit, she formed the idea to climb and ski the highest peaks in the world.
Kit remains at the forefront of ski mountaineering, leading expeditions, skiing high peaks, protecting wild spaces and raising two daughters to accomplish anything they set their minds to.
Adrian Ballinger
Benefits Truckee Tahoe Land Trust
As a professional athlete first and foremost, Adrian is the only American who has skied two 8,000 meter peaks, was the first person to ski Manaslu, the 8th tallest mountain in the world, and in 2011 became the first person to summit three 8,000 meter peaks in only 3 weeks (Everest twice and Lhotse once). He is the only American guide to have both AMGA/IFMGA guide's certifications and has achieved more than 10 summits of 8,000 meter peaks (including 6 summits of Mt. Everest). In the fall of 2019 Ballinger became one of the few people on the planet to summit K2, the second-highest peak in the world, without the use of supplemental oxygen.
Hadley Hammer
Benefits the Tahoe Fund
For most big mountain skiers, powder, mountains and big lines occupy the entirety of their daylight hours and even dreams. Hadley Hammer does not fit this stereotype. Though she crushes the big lines with the best of them as demonstrated with her competition record on the Freeride World Tour, Hadley also happens to be a sommelier, gourmet chef, book nerd, showcase Mountain Athlete and climber to name just a fraction of her side hobbies. Growing up in Jackson, WY, Hadley was brought up in the mountains, spending all her time chasing her brothers around the Tetons. As college approached, Hadley recognized the benefits of a formal career outside of her mountain life though and headed east for a B.A in Hospitality and Economics. After a few years working in the urban hotel world, she recognized a key component missing and headed back to her mountain base to achieve a greater balance between career and lifestyle. Cultivated by rock climbing and skiing before she could even walk, balance is the name of her game and now manifests itself in her big mountain skiing pursuits and complimentary lifestyle.

Cancer (6/22-7/22) — The cockroach problem at your short-term rental has gotten out of control. Confused by their proliferation in the absence of an accessible food supply and in the wake of heavy chemical combat, you surmise they're simply attracted by the comfort of the air-conditioned environment. You'll find a can of RAID to be much more effective combined with the flame from a cigarette lighter. Your resulting roofless and charred abode will be the opposite of energy efficient, but you enjoy the brief sanctity of a habitat devoid of all life.
Leo (7/23-8/23) — Your patience is stretched thin after being subjected to endless cell phone videos of wanna-be dancers urging you to watch them as they "whip" and "nae-nae." About the same time you view your 6,000th "stanky leg" this week, you go Tonya Harding on the world and start assaulting every kneecap you encounter. You'll be stripped of your competitive athletic titles but a sympathetic jury will spare you a prison sentence. There's a future for you in repulsive pornography.
Virgo (8/24-9/22) — After watching a trailer for the new Marvel film "Ant-Man," you become convinced there is a miniature supervillain in your dryer. In an effort to get off the hook for doing laundry, you'll tell your wife "Mini-Man" shoots you with his tiny laser blaster when you open the laundry room door. Your wife will laugh if off at first, but she will send you to the loony bin when you dress up in a cardboard cosplay get-up and call yourself "Mighty-Man: The Laundry Defender."
Libra (9/23-10/22) — The Comic-Con footage from "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" gets you so excited you'll spend your weekend watching the previous six Star Wars films. The poor quality of Episodes I through III causes you to become violently ill. You'll barely survive "The Phantom Menace," and by the end of "Attack of the Clones," you are a violent, angry man covered in Cheeto dust and sweat. Halfway through "Revenge of the Sith," you'll attempt ritual suicide with your son's plastic Qui-Gon Jinn lightsaber.
Scorpio (10/23-11/21) — When a judge retires in Baldwin County, you'll throw your name in the hat to fill the vacancy. You don't have a law degree, but your two years of interdisciplinary studies at Alabama should be enough to get you in the top three, you think. You've never been in a courtroom, aside from that time you got busted for shooting water balloons at teenagers on the beach that one summer. But you judge people all the time, so why not get paid for it?
Sagittarius (11/22-12/22) — Your boy Barack Obama is going to come through this week and commute the long-standing drug sentence you've been serving over the past 20 years. After nearly two decades in prison for holding a moderate amount of marijuana, you'll use your newfound freedom to take in all the ways Mobile has changed. At first, you'll be pleased by some of the new developments in West Mobile, but after a few minutes of pulling your hair out on Airport Boulevard, you'll realize that sometimes progress isn't good.
Capricorn (12/23-1/19) — After hearing about the new regulations being placed on the ride-booking service Uber, you'll applaud the Mobile City Council for dedication to protecting its citizens from callous corporations. You'll feel relieved knowing that a driver won't be able to transverse the numerous acid tanks, coal piles and oil pipelines that surround the Mobile's unique natural resources without proper insurance. At the end of the day, you'll be thankful for a governing body that prioritizes the public's needs over the wants of big business.
Aquarius (1/20-2/18) — With the best of intentions, you'll craft a meticulous text message letting your spouse know that the movie you invited them to without thinking is actually "more a friends kinda thing." You'll spend around an hour typing and retyping the words but they'll pretty much always a bit rude. Eventually, you'll send a text that reads, "there's been a fire, will call you later," which you'll swear afterwards seemed like a good plan at the time. As a result of that selfishness, the next few movies you catch will be seen from the couch you're sleeping on.
Pisces (2/19-3/20) — You'll soon make the wise decision to attend a Mobile County garage sale. While you'll find plenty of bargains, you'll also find a few ripoffs. For one, the governing body is selling a replica Confederate battle flag for about $20 million. You'll think that's high, but with Obama focusing on flags before taking your guns, you'll pull the trigger on the purchase. To sweeten the deal, commissioners will throw in a free copy of "Robert's Rules of Order."
Aries (3/21-4/19) — In a shocking turn of events, future President Donald Trump will declare the moon the 51st state because he's "big on cheese." Upon discovering that there is no cheese on the moon, Trump will turn the new lunar acquisition into a penal colony. Many years will pass before the colony sparks a war for independence. The conflict ends in a ceasefire, which results in the colony receiving congressional representation. Meanwhile, Puerto Rico is still in a severe drought. Poor Puerto Rico.
Taurus (4/20-5/20) — You'll be forced to resign from your job at a fast-growing social media site when you mix up characters from Star Wars and that other, crappier, TV-based science fiction franchise. You'll try to apologize to the country's nerds, but the damage will have already been done. Ironically, the only job you'll be offered after your resignation is one where you're forced to dress like a Wookie and stand on the curb to draw customers into a local carpet-cleaning service.
Gemini (5/21-6/21) — A psychiatrist enlisted as an expert witness at your attempted murder trial testifies that your act of calculated violence can be attributed to a rare case of "reverse going postal." The employee of the U.S. Postal Service you victimized actually brought it upon himself, the testimony suggested, by making a habit of delivering small, personal packages daily to the same single bathroom stall reserved for you and the office men. Your supporters in the courtroom engage in a silent social media protest anchored by the hashtag #occupystallstreet.

Transformation, purpose, vitality...
Are you awake? Are you living your life with purpose and forward motion, or are you asleep at the wheel, on auto pilot?
We are here for a season, our lives a whisper, (or a whimper), or we live something profound and become life changers ourselves. If you are still wondering what you are supposed to do with your life, start with making the choice to have one. Choose to live. One way to wake up and live is to simply make it your goal to make your life and the lives of those around you happier, better.
Consider it an assignment to make your corner of the planet a better place, an encouraging place of refuge, or an exciting hopeful oasis.
Give what you need. It will come back to you.
It is vital that you realize that you have to be the change that you want to see in the world.
You can wake up.
If you are just getting through the day, let go of the mourning period you have been in. Dare to let go of pity, sympathy, self absorption, martyrdom, self flagellation.
It's time for "a wonderful life".
