Every Tuesday and Thursday morning, Chava Joyner drives a frozen food truck as much as 250 miles throughout Wake County delivering frozen meals to homebound seniors.
The strain on the white 4-by-4 Chevrolet truck has finally taken its toll.
"That truck is in the shop more than it's on the road," said Marlene Silva, volunteer coordinator for Meals on Wheels of Wake County.
The nonprofit organization is trying to raise $50,000 to buy a new freezer truck. It has been using its backup truck to deliver frozen foods to more than 230 senior citizens Mondays through Fridays, and really needs a second truck, Silva said.
"It's not like if one truck is down, we can go to Hertz and rent another, because we need a freezer truck," she said.
Meals on Wheels has raised more than $20,000 so far, through direct mail and online outreach.
"We want to try and buy the new truck before the summer is over," said Mary Kate Keith, director of development and communication. "We hope to have something like a christening for the new truck and invite all our volunteers and the people Meals on Wheels serves to celebrate with food."
When Meals on Wheels began in Wake County in 1974, the idea was to serve hot meals countywide. It began as a home delivery program, but slowly expanded to include serving people in dining halls and with frozen meals that they could heat up when they want.
Now, volunteers driving their own cars deliver about 1,000 hot meals, while 300 seniors gather in one of eight senior dining halls around the county, where they can get to know one another. The frozen meals program was established in 2001 to serve homebound seniors in remote areas.
"Let's say somebody lives in the back of Zebulon and can't get to a senior dining hall. We can't send our volunteers who deliver food out on a 40-minute drive over there," said Silva. "We try to keep our volunteer routes under an hour because we have a lot of people who volunteer during their lunch breaks at work."
Seniors who receive frozen meals get five delivered once a week. The meals are prepared each day by Food Runners, a joint venture with the Inter-Faith Food Shuttle, and put into a flash freezer in the kitchen, then stored in an immobilized freezer truck powered with electricity from the main building.
When the frozen meals program began, it was delivering food to 30 people per week. Today, it delivers food to more than 200 people and is still growing.
"Two weeks ago, I added three more names to the route, and this week I'm adding two more," she said. "That's more daily miles on the truck."
Empty fridges
Joyner, 39, is a Meals on Wheels employee and has been driving the truck for more than six years. She understands how important it is to get a new one.
"Some people really don't have any food," she said. "I've been in homes where I have seen the fridge completely empty, so if I can't deliver food, then a lot of people will go hungry."
On Tuesdays, she mostly covers Raleigh and Garner. But on Thursdays, she covers Fuquay-Varina, Willow Spring, Garner, Holly Spring, New Hill and Cary, which can take six to seven hours.
It takes her a little more than an hour to load the truck, but her greatest enjoyment is serving those in need. On her days off, she visits some of the people on her route to talk and pray with them, even taking them to the grocery store.
"Sometimes I'm the only visitor they have all week, so it's nice to put a smile on their faces," she said. "I think I like it because I can feel my own family members I've lost through the people I serve."

Goldsboro, Princeton dominate respective opponents
By Staff Reports
Published in Sports on September 5, 2009 11:06 PM
From staff reports
BEAUFORT -- Vontarius Kornegay collected a season-high three rushing touchdowns and Goldsboro hammered East Carteret 30-6 on Friday evening.
Kornegay scored on runs of 24, 24 and 18 yards, and concluded the game with 71 yards rushing on just eight carries.
Wayne Hammonds paced the Cougars' ground attack with a season-best 163 yards and a touchdown on 20 carries. Andre Montgomery, one of the area's top five rushers, contributed 132 yards on 18 attempts.
Kornegay and Montgomery have combined for seven TDs in the Cougars' two victories this season.
"It was pretty decent, but as always, we sputtered in the first half," said third-year Goldsboro coach Eric Reid. "We'd get into the red zone and stall out. We went in at halftime, made some changes personnel-wise on the offensive line and found a good combination.
"We started wearing them out a little bit and made some things happen."
The Cougar defense recovered two fumbles.
But the statistic that most-pleased Reid was penalties. Officials flagged the visitors for just six infractions that totaled 40 yards.
"That was awesome," said Reid. "Everything just worked out well."
Goldsboro (2-1 overall) returns home Friday to face unbeaten county rival Charles B. Aycock. Kickoff is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. at Cougar Stadium.
The Golden Falcons have won four of five meetings since 2004.
"They are on a roll and well-coached," said Reid. "(Coach) Randy (Pinkowski) has those guys clicking on all cylinders. They're physical up front and have some good skill-position guys."
Princeton 55
Dixon 6
HOLLY RIDGE -- Ranked among the nation's top 10 passers in the high school ranks, David Gurganus continued to shred opposing defenses Friday evening.
The senior quarterback completed 14 passes for 354 yards and a career-best six touchdowns in Princeton's 55-6, non-conference shellacking of Dixon. Gurganus spread the yardage among five receivers, including senior Benton Myers, who hauled in a career-high 152 yards and three touchdowns on just five catches.
T.J. Wilson logged three touchdown passes and finished with 128 yards receiving. Patrick Jacobs (84 yards) and Matt Williamson (20) combined for five receptions.
Gurganus is less than 20 yards from reaching the 1,000-yard passing mark this season.
"It's who we are, so I guess that's what we're going to do," said Princeton coach Russell Williamson of the passing game. "The kids have done a great job learning the offense and it's working well for us right now. We'll see how it goes."
Dylan Myers tossed a 30-yard scoring strike to Benton Myers.
Princeton finished with 435 yards of total offense.
The Dawgs' defense played with a "bend-don't-break" attitude and forced three turnovers. Dixon managed to collect first downs on big plays, but couldn't sustain any momentum.
Princeton (3-0 overall) travels to North Johnston on Friday.
Wallace-Rose Hill 49
So. Wayne 6
TEACHEY -- Quintae Bradshaw accounted for Southern Wayne's lone touchdown in a 49-6, non-conference loss against Wallace-Rose Hill at Thell B. Overman Field on Friday evening.
Bradshaw's run covered five yards.
Javonni Robinson emerged the Saints' top rusher with 57 yards on 13 carries. Backfield mate JaQuan Cobb contributed 44 yards on 14 totes.
The Saints (0-3 overall) compiled 165 yards of total offense.
"It was a difficult evening," said Southern Wayne head coach Bob Warren. "We played a very good football team. We found some areas we have to improve upon to be competitive. We're going to continue to get better.
"We've got some good, young talent."
Southern Wayne entertains Kinston on Friday. Kickoff is 7:30 p.m. at the Doyle Whitfield Athletic Complex.
East Bladen 25
James Kenan 0
WARSAW -- East Bladen converted two first-quarter turnovers into touchdowns and stunned James Kenan 25-0 at Bill Taylor Field on Friday evening.
The Cougars haulted the Tigers' 34-game, regular-season win streak with fourth-year head coach Ken Avent Jr. Kenan's last regular-season loss occurred Nov. 4, 2005 against county archrival Wallace-Rose Hill.
East Bladen forced four turnovers.
"It was over pretty quick," said Avent Jr. "They're a good team and forced us to make some mistakes, and took advantage of it. We've just got to keep working and we'll be all right. It's good to find out what your weaknesses are before you get into conference (play)."
Brian Moore led the Tigers' offense with 47 yards rushing. Quarterback Dasmine Smith completed five passes for 69 yards. James Owens Jr. hauled in two receptions for 58 yards.
Middle linebacker Kyle Bostic posted a game- and career-high 19 tackles in the loss. Kendric Faison and Jaime Gonzalez recorded 12 stops apiece.
"Kyle has a nose for the ball and he makes plays," said Avent Jr.
The Tigers (2-1 overall) return to action Sept. 18 at East Duplin.
Kinston 50
North Lenoir 0
KINSTON -- Dory Hines threw for 235 yards and three touchdowns as unbeaten Kinston captured its fourth consecutive Freedom Cup with a 50-0 rout of North Lenoir.
The Vikings (3-0 overall) earned their second victory over a county opponent in successive weeks with second-year head coach Battle Holley. Kinston has outscored the opposition 124-12 this season, including two 50-point outings.
Hawks starting quarterback Romero Arnold missed the non-conference contest with a rotator cuff injury. Tailback Mike Sutton departed with a third-quarter leg injury. Neither player's status is known for Friday's home game against arch-rival South Lenoir.
Maurice Morgan paced North Lenoir's offense with 69 yards rushing on 24 carries.
The Hawks are 1-2 overall.
New Hanover 35
Eastern Wayne 12
WILMINGTON -- Eastern Wayne tallied touchdowns in the closing seconds of each half during its 35-12, non-conference loss against unbeaten New Hanover on Friday evening.
Jalen Barnes, in his first varsity start, threw for a career-high 121 yards and two touchdowns. Lamar Best snagged a 38-yard, first-quarter TD strike. Noah Hinson hauled in a 5-yard scoring pass in the final period.
Best finished with 59 yards receiving on five catches.
The New Hanover defense limited the Warriors to minus-9 yards rushing and just 112 yards of total offense.
Eastern Wayne (0-3 overall) travels to Greene Central on Friday.
Midway 34
Spring Creek 0
SPIVEY'S CORNER -- Johnathan Midgette rushed for a season-best 108 yards as Spring Creek suffered a 34-0 loss to perennial 1-A power Midway near the Hollerin' Capital of the World on Friday evening.
Midway forced a couple of turnovers and held the visitors to 79 yards of total offense. The Gators didn't complete a pass in three attempts.
Spring Creek senior cornerback Anthony Green picked off the Midway quarterback, giving him two interceptions in three games this season.
"I felt like our defense probably played one of the better games they've played this season," said Gators head coach Aaron Sanders. "Offensively, we've got to do things better. We've got a bunch of young guys who have been put on the spot and they're still having to learn the game.
"But I thought we gave a much-better effort than we did against Hobbton."
The Gators (0-3 overall) continue their run through the Tri-County 1-A Conference with a home game Friday against Lakewood. Kickoff is 7:30 p.m. at "The Swamp."

By Keith Coffman
CENTENNIAL, Colo. (Reuters) - The judge presiding over the case of accused Colorado movie theater gunman James Holmes began sorting out on Monday which evidence might be excluded from the upcoming trial, including information from online dating sites Holmes used.
In the first of a series of evidentiary hearings scheduled for the next few weeks, Arapahoe County District Judge Carlos Samour said he would take under consideration a motion by lawyers for Holmes to bar evidence seized from profiles Holmes created on the dating websites Match.com and AdultFriendFinder.com.
Defense attorneys have argued that the websites released information to authorities that went beyond what was sought in search warrants, while prosecutors countered that Holmes could have no expectation of privacy regarding any information posted on social media.
Holmes, a former neuroscience graduate student at the University of Colorado, is charged with multiple counts of first-degree murder and attempted murder related to a shooting rampage in a suburban Denver cinema in July 2012 in which 12 moviegoers were killed and 70 injured.
Holmes, 25, has pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity.
Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty for the California native, whose trial is scheduled to begin in February.
Samour said he expected court officials to send out 6,000 jury summonses in the case. He said he would review suggested questionnaires submitted by prosecutors and defense lawyers and rule on which questions should be put to prospective jurors when they report before the trial.
Holmes, who was shackled and dressed in red jail garb, sat impassively during Monday's proceedings and did not acknowledge his parents and sister sitting in the courtroom gallery.
Samour told Arapahoe County prosecutors and defense lawyers for Holmes that if they were to seek a continuance of the trial they needed to make a motion by early January.
Arapahoe County public defender Daniel King, Holmes' lead attorney, did not indicate if he would be seeking a postponement but told the judge that estimates of a three-month trial were unrealistic.
Arapahoe County prosecutor Karen Pearson said she expected the penalty phase alone to last up to a month if Holmes were to be convicted.

Bank Holiday strike on Severn Bridge?
There is the threat of a strike at the Severn Bridge toll booths over the bank holiday weekend.
Strike action including a 24 hour walk out, an overtime ban and work-to-rule is being threatened next Friday 24th August in a dispute over shift patterns. That coincides with the start of the Bank Holiday weekend, which would affect drivers on the M4 and M48.
The Freight Transport Association (FTA) said that it would not be acceptable to allow congestion to increase at the toll booths. Ian Gallagher, FTA Policy Manager, Southwest & Wales said: "The Concessionaire must not adopt a piece meal response to any strike action by limiting the number of booths. "Strike action can only result in one response by the concessionaire that of opening the gates allowing free flow traffic."
Local businesses are also very worried. Ian Jarman from a local haulage firm, Owens Road Services which has around 50 trucks paying the tolls every day, said, "We would see massive delays at the already busy Severn bridges, which would mount up into the drivers' hours that they have to work to. If the dispute goes ahead and does cause the expected disruption, it could well mean us having to head up the M4 to recover vehicles because drivers have run out of time."

JASPER, TX --The first black police chief of an East Texas city made infamous by a 1998 hate crime dragging death has sued over his firing.
Former Jasper police Chief Rodney Pearson on Tuesday sued the city, Mayor Mike Lout and several municipal officials. The lawsuit filed in Beaumont alleges racial discrimination and unlawful employment practices.
Lout on Tuesday denied the allegations. A woman who answered the phone Wednesday at Jasper City Hall declined to provide her name, said the city had no comment and hung up.
Pearson became chief in 2011 but was fired in June by the City Council over poor job performance. May elections led to new council members.
James Byrd Jr. was dragged to death in June 1998. Three white men were convicted of killing the black man.

The Loyalists of America and Their Times, 1620 - 1816, Volume 2The Loyalists of America and Their Times, 1620 - 1816, Volume 2. Egerton Ryerson, D.D. LL. D. (1880)In just two volumes this book, published in 1880, covers an enormous sweep of North American history and does so while encompassing events both at the national level and at the very personal level. An absolute necessity for those tracing their Loyalist roots. It took Egerton Ryerson, himself a descendent of Colonel Joseph Ryerson of the famous Loyalist Ryerson family, 25 years to complete this book. This was not only due to his being employed as the Chief Superintendent of Education for Upper Canada from 1844 to 1876 but can also largely be ascribed to the enormous amount of personal research he did to determine his facts. Egerton, circulated an open letter requesting all descendants of the United Empire Loyalists to write to him, at his expense, and give him their histories and reminiscences. Many of the resulting letters are reproduced in this book. The Archive CD Books Project exists to make reproductions of old books, documents and maps available on CD to genealogists and historians, and to cooperate with local libraries, museums and record offices in providing money to renovate old books in their collection, and to donate books to their collections, where they will be preserved for future generations.

Thankfully only one iris bothered sending up a bloom but I lost a couple of amaryllis blooms but eh, that's fine, I suppose.
To think back over the 10 years and try to remember all the beds and plants I've tried and lost... Looking over the amount of entries on this blog every year, seeing how the number is smaller and smaller, makes me wonder if I've lost my passion for gardening, or if it's just really the same kind of thing I'm experiencing every year and gaining nothing new about re-posting some of it every year.
Though my more recent posts seem to be a quick condensed version of events, which I guess it's nicer to see how everything unfolds in one post instead of trying to track down progress through periodic posts.
|March 16, 2017 - Amaryllis
I still have some amaryllis around. The ones that were in the ground outside were all removed when I couldn't keep up with the fungus, but probably made worse by the vines and weeds that grew in over the fence. The ones in flowerboxes are still okay, mostly because they're protected from rain so the blotch isn't quite able to take over everything while it's still cool and dry right now.
I'm really not sure what I'm gonna plant this year. So far I'm thinking I'm going to get a lot of sunflowers going, if I can. I don't know why but I just seem to miss them all of a sudden. And then there's my personal cross-pollinated desert rose seeds I'd like to plant to see if I can get anything out of those. The ones I started late last year have been unhappy under led grow lights in the den. Hoping some of those survive as I bought them as a unique cross so it's something totally new to have.
Now that I've separated my Dragon's Gold Iris, I think I'll be pampering the heck out of the rhizomes in hopes that there's even more babies to spread out and keep it going. Very funny that I've become extremely attached to it. hehe.
I think I am more surprised by my success with Iris. There's so many of them around that I'm sort of sitting around waiting for some virus or fungus to crop up and wipe them all out. I guess it's sort of pessimistic to think that way, but man...
Hope everyone has a great spring when it finally rolls in!

Open Thread: Talk About Clothes, Style, Fashion — Whatever the Heck You Like to Call It
Your place to come talk about clothes whenever you feel like it.
If you live somewhere with a lot of rain, you will understand what I am going on about in this post. As for the rest of you, I'm going to school you as to why you should in fact consider spending between $30 and $70 for a truly beautiful, functional umbrella that will last you a lifetime.
Almost every time I have visited New York City, it has rained mercilessly. I distinctly remember watching New Yorkers who owned cheap umbrellas just throwing them down in the street when the wind inevitably turned the spines of it inside out. The sight of them marching onward, slowly getting drenched to their bones, has always stuck with me. (And made me laugh cruelly.)
A costumer on a show I worked on recently turned me on to these amazing umbrellas made by Tray 6. They are real, functional works of art. They are also strong, made to withstand heavy rains, beautifully made, and wind-resistant. Once you buy 3 cheap $10 umbrellas that fall apart on you in your most desperate hour of need, you will agree that spending $30 or so on one well made umbrella is actually a very smart idea. In a perfect world, one single umbrella should last you a lifetime. Plus an umbrella can totally be a fashion statement.
The owner of Tray 6 is a brilliant graphic/textile designer who creates all of the prints for her umbrellas from scratch. Her designs remind me of a cleaner, sleeker, slightly more modern Marimekko. I personally own at least 6 of her umbrellas, which is completely ridiculous, as I live in the damn desert of California. But they are just so beautiful, I couldn't help myself.
Tray 6 sells 3 different sizes of umbrellas. I think the medium folding umbrella is the most useful size. (This is also the size that I own 4 of!) Two people can stand under it comfortably, not that my dude ever does. It's some strange badge of courage with him that he can walk in the rain and get wet and just not care.
The curved handle fits beautifully in your hand while carrying it, and makes it easy to hook it over your arm, dangle it from a patio railing, or hang it on the strap of your purse when it's not in use.
If you had ever unloaded a wardrobe trailer full of clothes in the pouring rain, you'd be singing the praises of a curved umbrella handle too. But of course I am the only poor slob standing in the rain getting yelled at to move faster while still trying to protect my hairdo. The rest of you will be grateful to me for this umbrella when you have a car full of groceries in the pouring rain.
I never thought about a stupid umbrella handle as being a functional item until I owned this particular umbrella. It seems like such a little thing until you are actually using it. It just fits so nicely into the crook of your arm, and allows you to perform tasks with both hands while holding said umbrella.
Now that I've waxed poetic about an umbrella handle for 10 solid minutes, let's move on.
The smallest umbrellas that Tray 6 sells are foldable and great to keep stashed away in your tote bag. They are only 11.5" long and weigh just about 12 ounces.
I keep one in my suitcase so I am not in a pickle when I find myself on a trip in the rain. You have no idea how many times lugging one of these stupid umbrellas around has saved my ass. (And made me look super sharp while I skipped through the rain in Philly to have beers with cute boys.)
This is also a good time to point out that the Tray 6 umbrellas I own all open and close flawlessly. There is no struggling with the closure mechanism while you try to jump into your car as you simultaneously attempt to close your umbrella. (In a perfect world, that should be one fluid movement.)
The largest of the Tray 6 umbrellas are what I like to call "New York Doorman Umbrellas".
The reason I own a few proper "doorman" umbrellas is because my best friend's mother died during El Nino in 2002. She had been ill for a long while, and we knew that she had a limited amount of time left. I had randomly purchased a large black umbrella a few weeks prior and happened to have it in my car on the day of her funeral.
I pressed that thing into service like crazy while walking all the elderly mourners from their cars to the funeral tent. It sounds so obvious and silly, but I have always thought that the very best thing you can do in times of sorrow and need is to simply be of service.
Tray 6 umbrellas make great gifts. I have given them to a lot of my co-workers and always get a kick out of seeing them in use when it finally deigns to rain in sunny LA.
If none of these umbrellas happens to float your boat, maybe you murderous babes would be more interested in a sword umbrella.
I know I am.

Jacques Callot's bravura handling of wash, the expansiveness of the setting, and the large number of participants belie this sheet's tiny size. Callot typically created small prints and drawings whose action and setting may be best appreciated with a magnifying glass.
The location and subject depicted in this drawing are unknown, but the camels indicate an Eastern locale. With rich use of wash and dramatic compositional rhythms, Callot invented a complex scene of an army marching in procession from a castle or walled city with captives and booty. Banners aloft, they regroup to trumpet fanfares in the lower right corner. Huge tongues of flame, seen clearly in the black chalk underdrawing, burst from the battlements.
In style, subject, and horizontal format, this drawing resembles compositions from one of Callot's masterworks, his Miseries of Waretchings of 1633. He completed the series soon after Cardinal Richelieu's devastating invasion of the Lorraine region and the capture of Callot's hometown of Nancy.

Saugerties Area Mobility Analysis (SAMA)
SAMA is a study that has as its genesis the work that the Saugerties Village Traffic Committee has done, to look at traffic concerns in the Village. Judith Spektor heads this commitee, which also includes:
The SAMA study picks up where the traffic committee's work left off, and is an expanded analysis by transportation/traffic consultants (Creighton Manning Engineering and BFJ Planning), in cooperation with Saugerties representatives (Judith Spektor, Mike Campbell, Carol Furman, Leeanne Thornton, Alex Wade, and Richard Frisbie), the Ulster County planner (Dennis Doyle), UCTC staff (Bill Tobin and Tom Mank), NYS Dept. of Transportation officials, a Thruway official, and others. The study is paid for by Federal funds (not by Village or Town taxes).
The Study began in the Fall of 2005 and is a 2-year study. The first public meeting was held in the Senior Citizens Center, on January 25th, 2006 and was one of the most successful meetings and one of the largest turnouts ever experienced by the consultants and the UCTC staff. The full report is available on the UCTC Web site
The 2nd public meeting was held July 20th, 2006 and the presentation from the consultants that was used at that meeting is available below, in PDF format.
There is an ongoing committee (Myles Putman, Judith Spektor, Alex Wade, Vincent Buono) that continues to look into SAMA-related and transportation implementation opportunities for Saugerties (Town and Village).
Initiative to Reduce Large Truck Traffic on Local Roads
In the list of documents below, you can find a report made available at a public meeting held in Syracuse, NY, on the topic of reducing large truck traffice on local roads. Saugerties is actively invovlved in this effort, which began in the Finger Lakes region and is supported by both Senator Chuck Schumer and Governor Patterson.
You can download either individual pages of interest from the report, or the full report (approx. 3 MB).

AM: Willian
During the early part of the season, I'm sure those Chelsea fans who had reacted with such delight when their club managed to snatch Willian from under the noses of London rivals Tottenham were beginning to question such a deal given the seemingly ponderous Brazilian's lack of discernible impact.
However, while he did endure a slow start to his Stamford Bridge career, former Shakhtar and Anzhi Makhachkala star Willian has really come onto his own at Chelsea in recent months and has now established himself as a regular starter under Jose Mourinho.
He might not be to everyone's tastes, but Willian is reliable and combines his attacking nous with a solid commitment to his defensive duties - an admirable trait in a player, for sure.

Airport Security Is Hampered By the Human Brain
Improving the human mind's difficulty in picking out dangerous objects in X-rays has become as urgent to security specialists as improving X-ray technology itself, writes Christopher Shea in the Boston Globe.
The human mind seems to have a few failings which make the task innately difficult and psychologists are hoping to nail down what they are in the hopes of correcting them. It isn't just airport-security employees who have difficulties reading X-rays. Radiologists also have a high error rate when scanning for tumors in mammograms and other kinds of X-rays.
One theory is that the mind finds it hard to notice things that it rarely comes across, according to research led by Jeremy Wolfe, a professor of ophthalmology at Harvard Medical School. In a study, currently under review for publication in the Journal of Experimental Psychology, he and his team found that the subjects spotted knives and guns at a far higher rate if they were "primed" by performing two-minute tests in which those items appeared frequently.
Not everyone believes that this approach will improve human scanners' performance. Stephen Mitroff, a professor at Duke University, and Mathias Fleck, a Duke graduate student, say that if you allow subjects to instantly correct their errors – as real-life security guards can – the benefits of Prof. Wolfe's approach disappears.
The Duke team are pursuing other avenues of research. One study suggests people are much better at noticing low-frequency threats if they play a lot video games in which the player adopts the point of view of a shooter. Another line of their research tries to tackle peoples' tendency to stop their search once they have found something suspicious, even if there could be other problems. — Robin Moroney

Yesterday's Sales Incentive Program is not Good Enough!
We've all heard the stats. According to Forrester Research, today's buyer is 74 percent done with their journey when they begin talking to a salesperson. That means today's buyer may be about two-thirds of the way to making a decision before they ever reach out to your organization. So tell me – has your sales incentive program kept pace with the market changes?
So, what to do?
The key is to adapt your sales incentive program, sales processes, and sales cycle to align with the support needed along the buyer's journey. Unless you sell a commodity product, you shouldn't treat the sale like a transaction. Instead, treat it like an act of long-term relationship-building. How? Salespeople should focus on educating buyers; providing them with relevant, timely information; and helping them identify the right solutions. The days of simply pitching products are over. This article is specifically focused on the pre-sales incentives, but if you are interested, let me know and I'd be happy to get you some information on the other phases.
You can't just tell your salespeople to adapt and expect it to magically happen.
1. Educate!
It all starts with education – which must be integrated into your sales incentive program. After all, for salespeople to be more successful in today's business environment, it is imperative that they understand the buyer's journey, the impact that has on the sales cycle, and how they can adjust the selling process accordingly.
2. Meet buyers where they are: incent the right behaviors at the right time
The buyer's journey covers awareness, consideration, and decision. As salespeople engage with buyers, there are four phases: enablement, pre-sales, sales, and post-sales. These are the phases during which salespeople must engage in some critical behaviors that may currently be foreign to them. Educate your sales team on the product they are selling AND the process your company uses to sell the product. Then, incorporate this activity into your sales incentive program. Reward salespeople who engage in and successfully complete the training programs within pre-determined timeframes, and you'll see significantly more salespeople actively participating.
Leaders and managers should reward salespeople on the spot, whenever they engage in the appropriate new behaviors
3. The Solution
Salespeople need to understand what information buyers want when they're deciding to pursue new solutions – and they must provide that information proactively before buyers even come to them. In other words: Salespeople should push content that helps buyers identify their problems and the solutions that might help them overcome those problems. You may have a marketing team dedicated to creating this content, but salespeople will be a critical component in getting that content in front of the right people at the right time. Your organization will identify the information buyers need and the actions buyers take when looking for this information, and your salespeople can respond accordingly.
4. Vendor Selection
In much the same way that salespeople should help buyers identify their pain points and the types of solutions that might relieve those pain points, salespeople should also be supporting buyers as they begin researching vendors. One behavior that can be incented here is the facilitation of research. That is, salespeople aiding buyers in their research on prospective vendors. As mentioned earlier, it is unlikely that buyers will be engaging with salespeople directly at this point. So, the best way salespeople can aid buyers in the vendor selection process is to make readily available the kinds of content that buyers need. Consider incenting salespeople to share analyst reports, case studies, and testimonials with their social networks and through blog posts whenever possible.
Another behavior that should be included in a sales incentive program is the capture of sales-generated leads.
Salespeople should be actively creating brands for themselves so that people will see them as authorities in their spaces.
Remember that adapting your sales process to the journey of today's buyers requires that you and your organization rethink how and when to apply behavioral incentives. Let us know what you are doing to rethink and reimagine your sales incentive programs.

AdmissionNursery I & II2019-2020
Half a century and more of enriching journey for South Point. The Calcutta, where the School took off and the Kolkata where it thrives now, are very different, and the difference is not only in the name. But South Point has wonderfully handled the changing student milieu, scripting success in an evolving city. With 12,000 pupils and committed teachers, South Point is now what it has always aspired to be. A School nurturing excellence.
This pursuit for excellence is apparent everywhere. When the new Nursery playroom opened its doors, happiness took charge of it. When South Point School changed its examination pattern to friendlier continuous evaluation, the objective was to re-package excellence. Excellence rules when rock-climbing is introduced, CCTV installed or special classes are organized at South Point High School. South Point shares its dreams with each student, teacher or guardian. And that's why so many awards and scholarships, extra-curricular activities, clubs and classes for students. Alongside, efforts are always on to impart excellent education to students.
To be at South Point is to be groomed by excellence.

1.46 gb recovery partition? Anyway what I wanted was that you backup that folder to some other drive, so you can delete it from the desktop- thats the only way to check. You dont have an external drive, you dont have a data partition and I dont want to complicate things by asking you to shrink C:. So the options for you are to get hold of an external drive somehow or clean install.

A clean install is what I think I wanted to do but didn't know how to back up my factory programs and drivers....or how to retrieve them. I did however, just attempt to delete the shortcut in safe mode. When it boots back up normally I will snip/post what it told me when it stopped the deletion.

This laptop came with a 32 bit system. The Windows 7 I bought came with both 32 and 64 bit discs. If I manage to do a clean install somehow would it be better to do the 32 or the 64??

It does this in both normal and safe mode. I haven't tried safe with prompt mode.

I just figured it out. I don't recall what it said but I clicked on the icon, clicked properties and under "advanced" it said something about read only and hidden. I selected "hidden" went down and selected apply and poof, it went away. It wasn't a shortcut icon...I went into C drive and created a shortcut for windows and it came right back up but was easily deleted when dragged over to the recycle bin. Problem (actually "aggrivation") solved. Thanks to all who responded and helped. It's nice to see a "Forum Community" like this available for gals like me who are basically illiterate when it comes to computers. On a brighter note...I actually like Windows 7 over Vista. I just don't know if the disc I used to install 32 bit Windows 7 will work again to install it on my desktop. Thanks again, everyone. I'm certain to be back in the very near future. Tawnya

Winbdows 7 ultimate x64 | Ubuntu 12.04 x64 LTS
Well that's a great news. Glad you got it sorted.
If you manage to do a clean install, i'd choose the 64bit, many reasons are there. Like more and efficient use of memory, better resistance to malware and rootkits (though there's one TDL4 variant for 64bit, but that's the only one till now) etc..
Also, don't forget to do a image of system drive so that in case when disaster strikes (which I really not hope to), you can have your system up and running within minutes. You can use windows inbuilt tool or use 3rd party tools like Macrium Reflect Backup and Hard Disk Imaging for Windows 7, Vista, XP and Server 2003/2008
Backup Complete Computer - Create an Image Backup
System Image Recovery
I prefer Macrium because the image created is usually small 4-8 GB's instead of Windows's 20+GB's.

UC Davis Welcomes New Athletic Director
Posted By Kevin R. Johnson, Jul 5, 2012
A big announcement from the main campus today: this fall, UC Davis will welcome new Athletics Director Terry Tumey.
I had the pleasure of serving on the recruitment advisory committee in the search for a new AD. Having grown up in Los Angeles as a diehard UCLA sports fan (where Terry was an All-Pac 10 football star), I thoroughly enjoyed meeting Terry during the recruitment process. I have complete confidence that he'll do a great job taking Aggie athletics to new heights.
Here is the formal announcement about Terry's hiring on the UC Davis website.

Caramelize onion by melting 3 tablespoons butter in a saute pan over medium heat. Add onion. Cook for 15to 20 minutes, or until onion is a deep brown, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and reserve.
Sprinkle your rolling surface with a handful of cornmeal or flour. Place dough in the middle of the surface. Roll dough out gently 1/4-inch thick, into either a 12-inch rectangle or circle. Brush both sides with olive oil and set aside until ready to grill.
If you are grilling on a charcoal grill, set coals on one side of the grill.
Place dough directly on the cooking grate over medium heat for 1 to 3 minutes, until the crust is well marked and browned. Flip dough and spread tomato slices evenly over crust. Sprinkle onion over top, then sprinkle cheese over the top. Move to indirect heat (for charcoal: the side of charcoal grill that has no coals. For gas: turn off burner directly under pizza). Cover grill and cook for 5 to 10 minutes, or until bottom is well browned, and cheese is fully melted.
Remove from grill, season with salt and pepper and slice. Serve immediately

Cornelia sold the house late last year to an owner who intends to knock it down and build anew. But even now, on the eve of its destruction, the structure thrums with echoes of its storied past. After all, it was the home of the late polo champ Winston Guest and his wife, the legendary CZ. A muse to artists such as Salvador Dalí and Diego Rivera, a confidante to cultural giants, including Diana Vreeland and Truman Capote, and an inspiration for fashion designers Mainbocher and Oscar de la Renta, CZ cut a wide swath through the 20th century.
Today, Templeton's bold leopard-print carpeting has faded, but its legacy lives on. Cornelia has kept, for instance, certain mementos of her father's hunting expeditions, though she's adopted a vegan, "cruelty-free" lifestyle. "It makes you feel so much lighter," she says of her decision to forgo animal products. Her cookbook, Cornelia Guest's Simple Pleasures, contains recipes for tempting vegetarian fare as well as pictures of her mother's collection of Dodie Thayer cabbage dinnerware. And though her Templeton involves significantly more tempeh than CZ's, Cornelia has followed in her stylish footsteps by creating a collection of sophisticated faux-leather handbags and a line of jackets in collaboration with Project Gravitas. An active supporter of the Humane Society of New York, she has been featured multiple times in PETA's campaigns against fur and carriage horses.
Even as she prepares to leave her ancestral home, Cornelia is planning her next residence and selecting the heirlooms that will accompany her there. "I believe everything has a soul," she says, referring to her family's possessions. "Every plate and painting must come out and see the light of day."
