Sales training

This first and only hybiscus flower just bloomed yesterday on the tree we planted in our Japanese garden a few months ago. The garden is always peaceful and when life seems difficult, it reminds me to take a deep breath and let it out slowly.

The last couple of weeks, life as a newly self-employed person has seemed difficult. I had a couple of conversations with well-meaning folks who told me the business I want to create won’t ever earn money. But then yesterday I had a conversation with Jeff Hirschberg, who is working to be an actor, and I was reminded what my real goals are. It was nice to be in the company of someone who understands the drive to forge one’s own, unique life.

I worked in marketing manager jobs for many years and thought I would know how to “sell” my own services. But it’s proved to be challenging to market myself. For one thing, I realised I couldn’t picture the conversation in which someone said they would buy from me. (Though that has happened already, to my surprise and delight.) This is when I decided I needed sales training.

I started by reading a book about sales − The Art of the Sale, by Philip Delves Broughton. I think it helped me see myself as a “sales person” and to own the process of talking to folks about my business. Soon after I started this book, I decided to sign up with Chris Lee, a Sandler sales trainer at Greenview Training Solutions, here in the Olympia area. The Sandler sales approach is all about being a well-functioning adult, listening very carefully to others, and building trust between you and your customer. I figure this will be helpful no matter what part of my life I’m working in, personal or professional.

Chris Lee is both very knowledgable about the sales process and amazingly perceptive about where his students are coming from. He “gets” people. This morning I learned something important from him about how I can talk more effectively with prospective customers. At the same time, I gained a more clear understanding of what marketing is. I feel energized and eager to more forward. Thank you Chris!

Compass generates 80% growth in IT business in Eastern region

Written by:
Subscribe to Oneindia News

Kolkata, Dec 11 (UNI) Computer Association of Eastern India(COMPASS) president Pawan Jajodia today claimed that the company accounts for about 80 per cent of the overall IT business in Eastern India.

Announcing the inaugural dates of their 12th IT Exhibition Compass 2007 here, Mr Jajodia said growth in IT sales and services was very encouraging in the eastern region, with about 30 per cent growth in sales of computer hardware and software in the past six months, which is higher than the national average of 22 per cent.

Exhibition Committee Chairman Arun Jalan said the company had asked for a larger plot of land for the exhibitions they hold every year. However, this time they have able to get only 2,500 sq meters of land for the four-day exhibition, which will be inaugurated by State IT minister Debesh Das on December 14.

'' The exhibition will host 76 particpants, including HP, Lenovo, Zenith and Seagate and at least 20 schools have been invited to participate, with awards being distributed in various categories at the end of the four-day event,'' Pranay Agarwal, Convenor of the exhibition said while speaking to media persons here.

'' This time we will be exhibiting not only computer hardware and softwares, but also several networking products and services that is increasingly becoming necessary in the eastern region,'' Mr Agarwal said.

While saying that Delhi and the national capital region has seen a growth rate of 32 per cent in IT business, Mr Agarwal said the Eastern zone is not far behind with a rate of approximately 30 per cent, which is higher than the nationwide growth rate of 22 per cent.

'' About 55 lakh PCs have been sold nationally last year, of which about 12 per cent was in West Bengal,'' said Mr Jajodia, while speaking about business made by COMPASS, and added that they have a target of Rs 400 crore for the next fiscal.

While responding to a question, Mr Jalan said that business in Guwahati and Bhubaneswar was being taken care of by their members there. But, the exhibition held here is targetted for only the people of this state, since the company has witnessed a substantial rise in sale of PCs, computer hardware parts and softwares in this part of the country during the past few years.

''The reason for this largely lies in the fact that affordability of computers have increased in the past 2-3 years with an increase of 12 per cent growth from the initial rate of eight per cent,'' said Mr Jalan.

New Delhi, June 7 : The apex body of truckers across the country, the All India Motor Transport Congress (AIMTC), today threatened to go on a nationwide strike from July 2 if the government does not remove ad valorem taxes levied on diesel.

The demands of the truckers' body include removal of ad valorem taxes levied on diesel, AIMTC President Charan Singh Lohara said after a management committee meeting here.

Also they are demanding that toll taxes on old highways, where recoveries have already been made, should be removed.

"We have a series of demands and will be submitting a memorandum to the government on Monday. If these demands are not met by June 30, we will go ahead with a nationwide strike from July 2," Lohara said.

He also said on roads constructed under the Build, Operate and Transfer (BOT) model, where the private parties have already made recoveries, toll taxes should also be withdrawn.

Lohara also said for new roads, the government should form a committee where truckers' body should also be made a party.

AIMTC also demanded the removal of speed governors at highways, which set speed limit at 60 km considering the government was going ahead with construction of expressways.

Tibetan PM-in-exile says watch out what China does, not says

Written by: Super Admin
Subscribe to Oneindia News

Dharamsala, Sep 14 (ANI): Samdhong Rinpoche, Prime Minister of the Tibetan government-in-exile has termed the Chinese trespass of India's border in Ladakh as "provocative."

Warning India of Chinese designs Rinpoche, in a rare political statement by a Tibetan exile leader on bilateral ties, asked New Delhi to watch out for what China does, and not what it says.

"You should watch out what China is doing rather than what China is talking out. The encroachment and intrusion in the border area, not only in the northeast but also in the western borders, particularly Ladakh. Lot of Ladakhi nomads have been disturbed," he said.

He said that the Chinese had come quite at length inside India and even painted the rocks. We don't know what they aim to but it is not acceptable," he added.

Officials sources have said that Chinese troops entered nearly 1.5 kilometres into the Indian territory near Mount Gya, which is recognised as the international border by India and China, and painted the word 'China' in Cantonese on the boulders and rocks there with red spray paint. The incursions were reported from the area generally referred in the Chumar sector in east of Leh.

The 22,420 ft Mount Gya, also known as "fair princess of snow" by the Army is located at the tri-junction of Ladakh in Jammu and Kashmir, Spiti in Himachal Pradesh, and Tibet. Its boundary was marked during the British era and is regarded as International border by the two countries.

The border patrol discovered the red paint markings on various rocks and boulders along the Zulung La (pass) on July 31 and the Chinese had entered into the area and written "China" all over the place, the sources said.

Indian soldiers later erased the text, writing 'India' instead.

This is not the first such reported intrusion. On June 21 Chinese helicopters had violated the Indian air space along the Line of Actual Control in Chumar region. The Chinese troops also reportedly dropped expired tinned food packets in the area.

Earlier, External Affairs Minister S. M Krishna commenting on the incursion by a Chinese helicopter in Ladakh, said that there was an inbuilt mechanism to deal with such incidents.

Krishna said: "This (India-China boundary in Ladakh) is one of the peaceful boundaries. We have no dispute with China in this area. There is an inbuilt mechanism to deal with such issues. (ANI)

Manali, Feb.3 (ANI): Himachal's hill town of Manali is all set to play host to the National Winters Sports 2010, at the world-famous slopes of Solang Nala in mid-February.

Meanwhile, the local residents are enthusiastic about their participation in the sporting event and practicing hard to perform to best of their potential and ensure winning the event.

"Last year, we could not practice because of less snowfall. This time, since there has been ample snow, we will try to win. This time we are focusing on skiing." said Dev Thakur, a participant for National Winters Sports 2010.

Local players opine there is need to organize more of such events for the popularity of the winter games.

"In Manali, there has been good snowfall. There are a few places in India where there is snowfall and infrastructure for winter games. So there should be more events like this," said Nisha Chauhan, a participant in National Winters Sports 2010.

Winter carnival was started by the former Chief Minster of Himachal Pradesh Y.S.Parmar to boost snow sports as well as culture of the region and Tourism industry of the state in the year 1977.

It was started with snow sports in the morning followed by cultural competition at Manu Rang Shala of Manali town but later on skiing competition was called off. By Prem Thakur (ANI)

High Exchange rate affects tourism in PNG

Staff Reporter 6/11/2015 | |
THE high foreign exchange rate in the country is making it an expensive tourist destination, a researcher says.
Professor Stephen Howes of the Australian National University said the number of tourists coming to PNG had dropped recently
because of the high costs of goods and service brought about by the high exchange rate in the country.
“There are foreign exchange shortages in PNG which means that the Kina is over-valued,” Howes said.
“The mining boom has certainly contributed to real exchange rate appreciation, due to a stronger Kina and inflation, and this has made it more difficult for tourism.
“We see that in Australia as well as in PNG.
“But now that commodity prices have fallen, PNG needs to look to other sources of growth.
“A lower exchange rate would make tourism cheaper for foreigners.”
According to research fellow Carmen Voigt-Graft, PNG’s real exchange rate appreciated by 43 per cent between 2005 and 2013, according to an International Monetary Fund article in 2014.
It meant that the country was much more expensive for tourists.
Voigt said holidaymakers from countries other than Australia to PNG had fallen by 30 per cent since 2008.
He attributed the drop to a number of factors, including a fall in tourism numbers because of the global financial crisis, negative publicity about the country and the Dutch Disease that PNG experienced as a result of the mining boom.
But he noted that PNG was making an effort to resurrect the tourism industry with a boost expected to come from the Pacific Games. The National/One PNG

Who Is This King of Glory?

June 24, 2007 — 2 Comments

We just moved 10,000 miles from Asia to Orlando, Florida. You know who your real friends are when they leave BlueBell ice cream in the freezer awaiting your arrival. Nice touch. Tomorrow morning our shipment arrives from Singapore, but I won’t be here to help unpack. I’ll be on a 24-hour air journey to Busan, South Korea, to join about 16,000 or so like-minded radicals who want to change the world. There’s something kind of exciting about that.

This morning found me meditating on Psalm 24, extolling the King of Glory. I believe I am about to see his glory show up in a very powerful way. Lord (and internet) willing, I hope to keep you posted. In case I miss a few days, feel free to catch it yourself at http://www.cm2007.net/.

    Florence Tan

  2. Hey Mr. Cochrum!
    Hope everything’s going well for you. Just wanted to let you know that I’ve been praying for you.

    Have a GREAT day!!

An autumnal weekend in Paris

An autumn weekend in Paris

Audrey Hepburn knew what she was talking about when she said ‘Paris is always a good idea’. There isn’t really a bad time of year for an escape to the French capital. You can ice skate halfway up the Eiffel Tower and warm up with a vin chaud at a Christmas market in winter. Take a walk through fresh blooms in the Botanic Gardens and eat pastel-hued macaroons in spring. Or soak up the summer sunshine on a beach by the Seine at the Paris Plages. But my favourite season for a Parisian weekend has to be autumn.

Parisian cafes

Parisian cafes

Parks dripping in shades of red and gold, crunchy leaves underfoot, steaming cups of hot chocolate, new exhibitions to see and all the gooey cheeses to eat. What could be better? A few years back I spent six autumnal weeks house-sitting in Paris and fell in love with this time of year. Autumn is the season when Parisians come back to the city after spending their summers on the coast. It’s known as the réntree – the re-entry – when businesses reopen and Parisians claim the city back from the tourists. It’s Paris’ second new year when it wakes up from a summer slumber and gets back to its day-to-day business.

Autumn leaves on the Promenade Plantée

Autumn colours in Paris

Autumn adds another dimension to an already beautiful city. The Seine is extra atmospheric at dawn or dusk when a fine mist hangs over the water on cool, crisp days. Along the river bank street stalls with roasting chestnuts sit next to the Bouquiniste book sellers. But for the best Parisian autumn colours you need to head to one of the city’s parks. Grab a takeaway crêpe, wrap up with a coat and scarf and take a walk. The Jardin des Tuileries and the Places des Vosges both have some fabulous foliage, but my favourite autumnal haunt is the Luxembourg Gardens. It’s Paris’ largest public park with over 22 hectares so you should have no trouble finding a pile of leaves to kick your way through. Paris heads outside when the sun’s out, with old men playing boules, children in the playgrounds and couples snuggling up to stay warm.

The Luxembourg Palace in Paris

The Luxembourg Palace and gardens

A cemetery isn’t somewhere I’d normally choose to spend my time – anywhere other than in Paris. In autumn their ornate tombs, sculptures and stained-glass windows are draped with colourful leaves. Père-Lachaise is the grande-dame of Parisian cemeteries and the resting place of famous names like Oscar Wilde and Jim Morrison. But it’s just one of several cemeteries from the 1800s built in a circle around the old edge of the city. The others in Montparnasse and Montmartre are just as beautiful and you can often have them almost all to yourself. Except on 1 November, a national holiday when France celebrates La Toussaint (All Saint’s Day) and families come from across Paris to lay flowers on their ancestors’ graves.

The réntree is the start of a new cultural season in Paris, when a whole swathe of new plays, performances and exhibitions launch. There’s an annual Autumn Festival which takes place from October until the end of the year. It’s been running since 1972 and has a mixture of different theatre, dance, music, film and visual art events and performances at 40 different venues across the city. Autumn’s a good time to check out some of the city’s museums as well. They often have new temporary exhibitions, but they also start to quieten down after being packed in summer. The Louvre never gets exactly quiet, but you can minimise queuing time by visiting in the evenings on Wednesdays and Fridays when the museum is open late until 9.45pm, or you can bypass the queues with a skip the line pass from ParisCityVision.

Paris has plenty of other museums to explore too – from classics like the Musee d’Orsay with its Impressionist paintings and the Rodin Museum with its sculpture garden, to quirkier spots like the Musée Cognacq Jay art museum set in a beautiful mansion in the Marais. Or you can embrace the city’s spooky side in time for Halloween with a trip to the Catacombs. In the 1780s Paris had grown so quickly that its cemeteries were overflowing and there was no room for them to grow. So six million bodies were moved underground into some of the 175 miles of former mining tunnels underneath the city. You can take a tour down into the depths where bones are piled up along the dark, damp passageways.

Autumn is also prime hot chocolate season, and Paris does some of the best in the world. One of the most well-known spots for a good chocolat chaud is the Angelina tea room, where people queue out of the door for a cup of their speciality thick ‘African’ chocolate blend. But my favourite hot chocolate comes from the Café de Flore in Saint-Germain-des-Prés – a haunt of 1920s painters, writers and philosophers like Picasso and Sartre. The notoriously grumpy waiters serve you a jug of melted chocolate and another of hot milk and you can mix them yourself to make it as rich and chocolatey as you can handle.

France’s other famous dishes come into their own in autumn too. Summer is for baguettes, ham, cheese and rosé picnics by the Seine or under the Eiffel Tower. But autumn’s the time to tuck into warm buttery croissants, steaming bowls of French onion soup, Boeuf Bourguignon and Cassoulet (I think of it as stocking up for winter!). Parisians stretch out terrace season for as long as possible, and many pavement cafés have patio heaters and blankets so you can sit out in the autumn sunshine and watch the world go by. The cooler evenings are a good excuse to hole up in a cosy bar with a good glass of red wine. If you want to learn about what you’re drinking, Ô Château runs daily wine tastings sessions and Champagne Seine cruises.

Parades in the Fête des Vendanges

The city also hosts a couple of wine-related festivals each autumn. First there’s the Fête des Vendanges, a kind-of harvest festival in Montmartre which takes place over five days at the start of October. It celebrates the harvest from Montmartre’s only remaining vineyard. And although the wine’s apparently not up to much, there are lots of tasty food and drink stalls in the streets around Sacré-Coeur, as well as parades and firework displays. Then there’s Beaujolais Nouveau Day on 20 November when you can taste the latest vintage of this love-it-or-hate-it wine in bars around the city. Then for the perfect end to an autumnal weekend, finish off the night in an underground jazz bar. Montmartre is home to some of Paris’ old-school venues, like Autor de Midi et Minuit for the classics and Blue Note for Brazilian jazz.

      It was really warm when I was housesitting too – I had to go and buy some summery clothes as I’d just packed jumpers and boots! The hot chocolate is really something, you need a spoon to get through it.

    Beautiful photos. Fall seems like the perfect time to visit. I went in spring and had champagne and sorbet at Angelina, but would gladly try visiting with crisp air and foliage when I could switch champagne for hot chocolate!

 The 'evidence is clear' - cell phone radiation causes brain cancer, scientists conclude

The 'evidence is clear' - cell phone radiation causes brain cancer, scientists conclude
-by David Gutierrez

The question of whether cell phones cause brain cancer has been definitively settled, doctors and scientists from around the country warned recently at a pediatric conference in Baltimore.

"The weight of the evidence is clear: cell phones do cause brain cancer," said Dr. Devras Davis, president of the Environmental Health Trust.

Children are particularly vulnerable to the damaging effects of cell phone radiation, even in the womb, the experts warned. That's why
pregnant women should also limit their cell phone use.

"Keep the phone away from the abdomen — especially toward the end of pregnancy," Davis said.

Oxidative damage leads to cancer
Cell phones emit a type of radiation known as radiofrequency radiation (RFR), which is also used to transmit wireless internet signals. This is different from ionizing radiation (such as from X-rays), which is known to cause DNA damage and cancer. Until recently, many health experts insisted that RFR was simply too low energy to cause the kind of cell damage that causes cancer – even as the studies linking RFR exposure and cancercontinued to pile up.

In 2010, the landmark international Interphone study found that ten years or more of cell phone use was associated with a 40 percent higher risk of brain tumors, a 300 percent higher risk of acoustic nerve tumors, and also an increased risk of parotid gland tumors. The risk of brain tumors was 400 percent higher among those who began using phones before age 20. Strikingly, the methodology of this industry-funded study was widely criticized for data analysis techniques designed to show lower risk – suggesting that the true risk is much higher.

In 2011, the International Agency for Research on Cancer classified RFR as a possible carcinogen.

Then, in 2015, a study in Electromagnetic Biology & Medicine provided part of the answer as to how RFR might lead to
cancer. A review of prior research into the biological effects of RFR exposure showed that the levels of radiation absorbed through normal cell phone or wireless internet use produce oxidative stress, a condition in which the body's antioxidant capability is overwhelmed, and free radicals start to build up in the body.

Free radicals cause oxidative damage to cells and DNA, and have been strongly linked to cancer, heart disease, dementia and other health conditions.

Children at higher risk
Children are especially vulnerable to the health risks of cell phones, attendees at the Baltimore conference warned. According to Davis, their brains absorb twice as much radiation as adult brains do, given the same exposure.

This could explain studies showing that a pregnant woman's cell phone use can affect her unborn child.

"There's a correlation between cell phone use in pregnancy and behavioral problems in their children," said Dr. Hugh Taylor of the Yale School of Medicine.

Children are also harmed by the disrupting effects that
cell phones have on human social relationships, warned clinical psychologist Catherine Steiner-Adair.

"These devices are really stressing and straining our family relationships because the average mom or dad will check their phones 60 to 110 times a day," she said.

In fact, numerous studies have shown that parents regularly ignore their children to look at their phones instead, and that this is correlated with a higher level of behavioral disturbance in their children. And the children are aware of being ignored: In one international study, a third of children said that their parents spend as much or more time on their mobile devices as they do with them; a similar number said they felt unimportant when their parents were distracted from them by a device; and more than half said their parents check their devices too often.

Parental overuse of mobile devices makes children more likely to develop technology addictions, which in turn is linked with cognitive, emotional and social problems.

"So we're getting like a triple, quadruple whammy between the biological effect, the psychological effects and the brain waves effects," said pediatric neurologist Dr. Martha Herbert.

What Happens If You Don’t…

Pay your property taxes?  Pay your income taxes?  Comply with any EPA regulations regarding the use of your property?  Comply with a multitude of local zoning ordinances or permits in regards to your property?  We all know the answer to these questions as we’ve either experienced the consequences or know someone who has – the government, be it local, state and/or federal, swoops in and takes your property from you, fines you and perhaps even takes away your freedom by imprisoning you.

Does this sound like a government described by Patrick Henry during the Virginia ratification convention in 1788:  “for liberty ought to be the direct end of your Government”?  My question hardly needs a response.

John Taylor, one of the most eloquent and ardent defenders among our founders of individual liberty and limited government, had this to say on the matter of property and individual rights:

“The restrictions as to taxing property, imposed upon both the federal and state governments, also recognize only a limited power over it in either; and as to the application of taxes, it is,…expressly limited to the execution of the powers delegated, for which purpose and no other the power of taxation was bestowed.  Among the powers delegated, there is none to grant pensions, or to dispose of the public money according to the dictates of caprice, or benevolence,…

Societies are not instituted for the purpose of enabling governments to destroy natural rights; and as no man possesses a natural, or necessary, or convenient  power over the natural rights of another, a majority of men cannot have a right to surrender to a government an absolute power over these natural rights…the freedom of conscience and of labour are essentially natural rights…Neither nature, nor necessity, nor convenience, has invested the people, or their representatives, with an absolute power over private property, or over conscience;…” (Construction Construed, and Constitutions Vindicated, 1820, p. 276)

Let those words of wisdom from almost 200 years ago sink in.  Have we not done what Taylor said we have no right to do, namely surrendered our natural rights to a capricious government?  It is unfortunate that we cannot require all of these young people thronging to Bernie Sanders rallies to read Taylor’s writings before being allowed to vote.  Matter of fact, maybe it would help if all Americans were to read the wisdom of our founders before they cast their votes; maybe then we could elect men and women who would see to it that our government met Patrick Henry’s stated purpose of government.

Alpharen™ Tablets (Fermagate Tablets):

Alpharen Tablets, a calcium-free non-absorbed phosphate binder, is in Phase 3 development in the U.S. and in Europe for the treatment of hyperphosphatemia in dialysis patients. The available Phase 3 data show that Alpharen controls elevated serum phosphorus at least as well as sevelamer and lanthanum, the market leaders in the U.S. and Europe, respectively, without unwanted heavy metal accumulation in the bone. The required dosage is nearly 40% lower than that of sevelamer, reducing the “pill burden” and increasing dosing compliance. Further Phase 3 development will start in 1H‘16. Alpharen is protected by issued composition of matter patents through 2018, by manufacturing patents through 2029, and by pending and planned use patent applications thereafter.

Default B*nds' roid mule heads back to the clink

SAN FRANCISCO -- Barry Bonds' personal trainer was on his way back to jail Monday after being held in contempt of court for refusing to testify before a grand jury investigating the Giants slugger.

Greg Anderson could remain behind bars for more than a year while the grand jury investigates Bonds for perjury and other charges.

Anderson, who has appeared five times before two federal grand juries without answering pertinent questions, was held in contempt of court for two weeks last month but was released when that grand jury's term expired.

"Sometimes sitting in the cooler for a long time may have a therapeutic effect and may change his mind," said U.S. District Judge William Alsup, suggesting that he could remain behind bars for as long as 16 months -- the remainder of the grand jury's term.

"Maybe in 16 months he will change his mind," Alsup said during the rancorous, hourlong hearing, after which authorities whisked Anderson into custody.

Anderson also served three months in prison and three months of home detention after pleading guilty to steroid distribution and money laundering in the investigation of the Bay Area Laboratory Co-Operative, which allegedly supplied Bonds and other elite athletes with performance-enhancing drugs.

At issue is whether Bonds lied under oath when he told the grand jury investigating BALCO in 2003 that he did not knowingly use steroids and that Anderson gave him what he believed to be flaxseed oil and arthritic balm.

Anderson has refused to say whether he gave Bonds steroids. Alsup told Mark Geragos, the trainer's attorney, that jailing Anderson might test "how loyal your client wants to be."

"Will he go down there and say whether he injected Barry Bonds with steroids?" Alsup asked.

Geragos said he would appeal the judge's order.

Authorities are also investigating Bonds for tax evasion regarding income from sales of his sports memorabilia.

Prosecutor Matthew Parrella told the judge that the government was also investigating unnamed "athletes" associated with Anderson and said there was a "mountain of evidence" to form the basis of the questions asked to Anderson. He said the evidence included documents seized at Anderson's house in the BALCO investigation and from "testimony of other witnesses."

The name of Gary Sheffield, the New York Yankees' outfielder, surfaced during Monday's hearing as an angry Alsup recited the questions Anderson refused to answer before the grand jury.

The questions included whether Anderson injected Bonds with steroids and "whether Anderson knows Barry Bonds or Gary Sheffield."

Sheffield has admitted using a cream he got from Anderson two years ago, but said in a 2004 interview with Sports Illustrated that he did not knowingly use steroids.

In the book "Game of Shadows," however, two San Francisco Chronicle reporters wrote that Anderson put Sheffield on injectable testosterone and a human growth hormone in 2002, and later sold him designer steroids known as "the cream" and "the clear."

Sheffield adopted Bonds' heavy training program when he visited the San Francisco star after the 2001 season and lived at his home in Hillsborough for two months, according to the book published earlier this year.

Although Bonds and Sheffield later had a personal falling out, Sheffield wanted to maintain a relationship with Anderson so he could keep getting the drugs, the authors wrote.

Rufus Williams, Sheffield's agent, did not immediately return calls for comment.

Alsup also found meritless Geragos' plea that testifying before the grand jury would violate a deal Anderson struck in December to plead guilty in the BALCO case. Geragos said Anderson specifically stated he would not cooperate with the government as part of the deal.

Gee whiz, Greg. If there's nothing to hide, why won't you testify?

Enjoy your stay in the hole, jackass.

Timberline Trail around Mount Hood Hike

From Oregon Hikers Field Guide

Mount Hood and the massive Zigzag Canyon from the Zigzag Overlook (Tom Kloster)

The Forest Service has just finished the new Eliot Branch crossing. This was previously closed after being washed out (observed 2016/10/2)

The hike around Mount Hood is one of the best hikes in the area. You get great views of Mount Hood, and of the surrounding territory including Cascade volcanoes such as Mount Saint Helens, Mount Rainier, Mount Adams, Mount Jefferson, and the Three Sisters. You can see the Coast Range to the west. You can see Portland and the Willamette River. You can see the Columbia River. You can see the desert to the east.

It's really interesting to see how the plants and geology vary as you go as low as 3300' by Ramona Falls through deep forest to barren lava flows as high as 7300' on the east side of the mountain.

Most people take 4 days and 3 nights, beginning and ending at Timberline Lodge, and go clockwise. A number of other alternatives are mentioned below. The detailed description is the same regardless of how you do it. At a few places there are several choices of route which can make the hike a little shorter or longer.

Compared to the "Dilbert World" we're used to, it's refreshing to get into the routine of getting up in the morning, eating, packing up, hiking several stretches with rest stops, finding a place to get water and camp, and repeating. Anyone that has the opportunity should do this hike at least once. You might like it so much that you want to try a longer trip such as the trail around the Three Sisters, the Wonderland Trail around Mount Rainier, or thru-hiking the Pacific Crest Trail.

As usual, mileages can differ between sources. These mileages are from a GPS track. Sometimes a trail is re-routed which can change mileages. These will at least give you an approximate value. These were updated September 2016.

Start at the top of the parking area to the East of Timberline Lodge at elevation 5900 feet. Go West, below/in front of Timberline Lodge. If you haven't been there, go check it out.

Keep going West, at about the same elevation. You go just above a ski lift that comes from below, and cross the bottom of another ski lift that goes up. Eventually it becomes the Mountaineer Trail. Keep going West and a little up until it joins the Timberline Trail (400) which is also the Pacific Crest Trail (PCT - 2000) at elevation 6000 feet and mile 0.8 from the start.

If you don't find the Mountaineer Trail, just go West/up until you find the obvious PCT.

Keep going West on the PCT.

At 1.2 miles, the trail makes a brief descent into rocky Little Zigzag Canyon, an easy, bridgeless crossing. For the next mile, the trail descends into forest, passing the Hidden Lake Trail (no. 779) on the left. There is a campsite (but no drinking water) below the trail just before this junction. There's another campsite (with no drinking water) below the trail in another 0.1 mile.

At mile 1.5 is the junction with the Hidden Lake Trail. It's about 4 miles down to the trailhead.

There's a small campsite below the trail at mile 1.8.

There is a small stream at mile 2.0. It gets to be a trickle late in the season but I've not seen it dry up.

The Timberline Trail then curves across a series of sloping meadows before suddenly reaching Zigzag Overlook, the lip of gaping Zigzag Canyon at 2.3 miles, elevation 5500. The view includes the meadows of Paradise Park, across the canyon, and rugged Mississippi Head, the mesa-like formation at the head of the canyon.

From the Zigzag Overlook, the trail quickly descends a cool, forested slope to the bottom of Zigzag River Crossing at mile 3.4 and 4800 feet elevation. The stream is generally easy to cross without wet feet, but can occasionally present an obstacle during periods of heavy snow melt and rain. Be sure to look upstream for dramatic Zigzag Falls, which often forms snow caves at its base.

From the canyon floor, the trail climbs steadily, crossing a side stream, then reaching a junction with the Paradise Park Loop Trail at 3.8 miles. Turn right here and continue climbing through switchbacks. You could stay on the PCT/Timberline Trail (through forest, only one signed junction go straight, several nice campsites next to Lost Creek) but going through Paradise Park only adds 400' elevation gain and no additional mileage and is well worth it.

On the Paradise Loop Trail, at mile 4.8, 5700 feet elevation is the junction with the Paradise Park Trail and the beginning of the sprawling alpine meadows of Paradise Park. It's 5.5 miles down to the Paradise Park Trailhead near highway 26.

Continue on the Paradise Loop Trail. Cross Lost Creek at the 5.0 mile mark. This is a reliable source of drinking water year-round. A little further are the remains of the Paradise Park shelter in a grove of ancient mountain hemlock. There are a couple campsites here, but better sites are ahead. Inexperienced people are tired from the hike and drop their packs right here, so these sites are often taken.

The route continues to the right here, curving through exceptionally scenic meadows, punctuated by rocky bluffs and Mount Hood towering above. There are also excellent views of the rugged Zigzag Mountain arm of the Mount Hood Wilderness, to the west, and the Salmon-Huckleberry Wilderness, to the southwest.

The trail reaches about 5800 feet elevation in Paradise Park.

Next, the trail crosses another branch of Lost Creek. This is another reliable drinking water stream. There are a number of nice campsites here. You can go straight up at the stream. You can go a little further and then down a trail to the site of an old lookout. You can keep going down to another more sheltered site. A little further on the Paradise Loop Trail is another trail going down to a campsite. A little further is a trail going up - in about 0.1 mile is a huge rock, maybe 20 feet high, with a campsite next to it (very exposed in bad weather). There are two plaques on the rock memorializing two former Forest Service employees.

There are a couple more campsites just below the trail.

The Paradise Loop Trail comes within a few hundred feet of Paradise Branch canyon, before turning downhill in a switchback. If you have the energy and interest, walk through low alpine scrub and meadows to the edge of the canyon for a sweeping view of Mount Hood, Reid Glacier and several waterfalls on the Paradise Branch.

After taking in the view, return to the main trail, and begin a gradual decent back to the Timberline Trail/PCT, reaching a well-marked junction at 6.1 miles. Turn right (northwest). The trail takes a long stretch steeply down.

If you had stayed on the PCT rather than the Paradise Loop trail, there's a nice campsite at Lost Creek at mile 5.0.

At about mile 9.0 the trail gets close to Rushing Water Creek and several campsites off the trail a bit, next to the creek, which is good for drinking water. It's kind of cool here if you have hot weather.

At mile 9.1 the trail crosses the Sandy River. This is one of the more difficult stream crossings around Mount Hood. You have to cross on rocks/logs. There's no bridge. See Tips for Crossing Streams.

In the next mile, up to Ramona Falls, there are maybe a dozen campsites near the trail, explore any side trails you see. Get drinking water from Rushing Water Creek at the Sandy River crossing or at Ramona Falls. There's also a small stream below the trail at about mile 9.4 at a low point of the trail at about 3300 feet elevation.

The trail now goes along the Sandy River stream bed. At mile 9.5 is the junction with the Ramona Falls Trail.

There are three choices here, about the same distance and elevation gain:

  1. - Go left and along the Sandy River - this is the shortest route - this is the official PCT
  2. - Go right, then left at Ramona Falls along Ramona Creek - this adds 0.1 mile
  3. - Go right, then right at Ramon Falls - this adds 0.4 miles - I think this is more scenic.

To do the #1 route, go left and go 1.5 miles to a junction. The Ramona Falls trailhead is left 1.4 miles, we want to go right. In another 0.5 miles is another junction where the #2 route joins from the right.

To do the #2 and #3 routes, go right 0.4 miles to Ramona Falls and another junction. Route #2 goes left 1.6 miles to the junction with route #1.

Routes #1 and #2 cross the Muddy Fork on an improvised crossing, at elevation 2300 feet, then 2.2 miles uphill to a 5 way junction at 4300 feet elevation. To the left is the PCT north and the trail down to Top Spur trailhead 0.5 miles away. To the right is the trail around Bald Mountain. We want to go straight following the signs to Cairn Basin. It's 0.4 miles to where we connect up with route #3.

This all sounds more complicated than it is. Route #1 is the PCT so just follow the PCT markers.

We want to follow route #3. At the junction just after Ramona Falls go right. This is 3500 feet elevation.

At mile 10.6 is the junction with the Yocum Ridge Trail which dead ends about 6 miles up the mpuntain. A great trip for another day.

For the next 4 miles the trail is sometimes taken out by landslides, so you may have to detour the other way.

At mile 12.6, elevation 4100 feet, is a nice campsite with a drinking water stream.

Then, the trail crosses the Muddy Fork. There are several different branches to cross. These can sometimes be difficult.

At mile 14.4, elevation 4350, is a cutoff trail that goes right up and over the ridge where it joins up with routes #1 and #2. We want to go right. A nice detour is to keep going straight around scenic Bald Mountain.

At mile 14.5 is the junction with the McGee Creek Trail which comes in from the left (1.3 miles to the McGee Creek Trailhead). Stay straight.

At about mile 15.6 are several viewpoints that look up to Mount Hood and down into the Sandy River Canyon. From the PCT junction to here is pretty crowded summer weekends. There is a place for a tent just above the trail in the brush next to the first viewpoint. There's another place for a tent right at the high point.

At mile 16.3 is the unmarked junction with the McNeil Point Scramble Trail. You could take this loop for 1.1 miles until it rejoins the Timberline Trail. The first part of the trail up to McNeil Point is very difficult - requires you use your hands a bit. There is a year-round drinking water stream and a number of nice campsites along the way.

At mile 16.8 is the signed junction with the Mazama Trail #625 (previously known as the Cathedral Ridge Trail) which comes up from the left. It's 3.1 miles to the Mazama Trailhead.

A little further is the old McNeil Point Trail, now closed for revegetation. There's a nice campsite. There's a drinking water stream that probably dries up in September.

At mile 17.1 is the signed junction with the McNeil Point Trail. This officially maintained trail is a much easier side path to McNeil Point

At mile 17.3 is a somewhat difficult stream crossing of one branch of Ladd Creek. This is the outflow of the Glisan Glacier above. This stream is too silty to drink out of, but there's another small stream that would be better, right next to the main stream.

In the next several miles, up to Eliot Creek, are several areas burned by the Dollar Lake fire of 2012. There were fingers of fire that burned up to and across the trail. The trail is totally passable. A few trail signs got burned up but they have mostly been replaced by temporary signs. A few campsites have been burned, mainly in Cairn Basin, but there are unburned campsites nearby. Maybe the biggest risk is that trees have been burned, killed, and weakened, so they might fall over on you. But, this is becoming less of a risk because there have been a couple winters to blow over the weakest ones.

At mile 17.4 is the junction with the Eden Park Trail which goes left. You could take this trail, and loop around to the Vista Ridge Trail and then back up to the Timberline Trail taking an extra 0.5 miles, and losing and then regaining 300' of elevation. Eden Park is a very scenic meadow area.

Right after the Eden Park Trail junction is Cairn Basin which goes for about 0.2 miles along the Timberline Trail. There's one of those stone shelters, which could be a life saver in a storm. There are about 6 campsites all along here on both sides. If they're all busy, try taking the trail up past the shelter and you can find a few more campsites.

The trail is at about 5800 feet elevation here.

At the far end of Cairn Basin, at mile 17.7 is another somewhat difficult stream crossing, the other branch of Ladd Creek. It's too silty to drink.

At mile 18.5 is the junction with the Vista Ridge Trail #626. This is the return from the loop through Eden Park. It's 2.7 miles to the Vista Ridge Trailhead.

At mile 18.6 is Wy'East Basin, a scenic alpine meadow. There aren't any good places to camp here. There's a nice drinking water stream. There is an unmarked trail going up to Barrett Spur.

At mile 18.9 is the junction with the Pinnacle Ridge Trail #630. It's 3.4 miles to the Pinnacle Ridge Trailhead.

At mile 19.2, 5800 feet elevation is an unmarked side trail going to the right (up) to Dollar Lake. It's easy to miss this trail. There are usually some cairns to mark it. Dollar Lake is 0.3 miles from the Timberline Trail. There are three established campsites there. They may be full on summer weekends, this is a popular place summer weekends, surprisingly because it's so far from any trailhead. From here, there's a one mile side trip up to Barrett Spur. You can get drinking water from Dollar Lake, but people and animals swim there and there's no inflow or outflow so not the best water. If you keep going up towards Barrett Spur there are some campsites and a drinking water stream.

At mile 19.9 is Elk Cove and the junction with the Elk Cove Trail #631. This is a nice meadow area with great views towards Barrett Spur and Mount Hood. There are about six campsites along the Elk Cove Trail within 0.5 miles of the Timberline Trail. These are in the forest and usually aren't that busy. You can get drinking water from the stream going through Elk Cove.

At mile 20.7 is the difficult crossing of Coe Creek. Elevation here is about 5100 feet.

At about mile 21.6 you cross a fork of Compass Creek, good for drinking water. At about mile 21.8 are a couple campsites and some other flat areas you could camp. This area got burned over by the Dollar Lake fire. The nicest spot is about 200 feet west of the trail, and just out of the burn area, a very faint side trail to it. At about mile 22.1 is another campsite. At mile 22.3 is another fork of Compass Creek for drinking water.

At mile 23.8 is the beginning of the new trail that crosses Eliot, at 6000 feet elevation. This is a really nice trail - dirt/gravel, lots of switchbacks. Nothing like the old unofficial trail.

At mile 24.5 is the Eliot crossing. This is like other stream crossing around Mt Hood - sometimes easy, sometimes very difficult, it depends on the amount of rain recently and the amount of snow melt. September 2016 it wasn't nearly as bad as the more difficult crossings like Newton, White River, Coe, and Sandy. A little further is the low point at 5400 feet elevation.

At mile 25.1 the new trail ends back up at the old trail at 5900 feet elevation.

At mile 25.2 the trail reaches Cloud Cap. Its about 200 feet down to the trailhead and campground. There's a trail from there to Tilly Jane trailhead and campground about 0.6 miles from there. The elevation is about 5800 feet.

At mile 26.2 is the junction with another trail down to Tilly Jane about 1.2 miles away.

At mile 26.4 is the Cooper Spur Shelter.

Continue up the Timberline Trail to mile 27.6 to the Timberline High Point. This is the highest point (7350') of the Timberline Trail. There are a couple streams before the high point until late August, and there's another drinking water stream just after the high point. In September, this stream may only flow in the late afternoon and you may have to dam it up to form a pool and wait for the silt to settle before you can get water. There are a couple ridges that go east from the trail with some flat areas for a tent, but this is extremely exposed and not good in bad weather.

In another 0.2 miles, there's a high area above the trail, which is the highest point of Gnarl Ridge, where you can find a flat area for a few tents. This is a little more sheltered than the Timberline High Point. There are a couple streams.

At about mile 28.2 there's a spring a ways to the East of the trail. This was dry in early September. Maybe if you went downhill there would be a place where there was water.

After a while, the Timberline Trail follows the top of Gnarl Ridge with excellent views. At about mile 29.0, the trail leaves the top of Gnarl Ridge and there's the remains of one of those stone shelters and on the opposite side of the trail are some flat areas that could hold an army of tents.

At mile 30.3 is the junction with the Gnarl Ridge Trail #652 which is 3 miles down to the Hood River Meadows Trailhead.

At mile 31.1 is the difficult crossing of Newton Creek). It's a little hard finding where the trail exits the canyon on the West side. It's pretty much opposite the East side - you don't have to go a long ways upstream or downstream. Look around for a rope or flagging. Just after the crossing are several nice campsites a little off the trail. There's also a small drinking water stream.

We're down to 5400 feet elevation here, and stay at about that elevation across the Mount Hood Meadows area.

At mile 31.4 is the junction with the Newton Creek Trail #646 (3 miles down to the Hood River Meadows Trailhead). Walk a short distance down here for some excellent views south.

At mile 32.6 is a somewhat difficult crossing of the Clark Creek. At mile 33.4 is a nice waterfall at Heather Canyon and a somewhat difficult stream crossing.

Over the next 2.5 miles are a number of beauteous streams and little water falls and several campsites. This is all in the Mount Hood Meadows Ski Area, so you see occasional signs of man, but it's a novelty compared to the wilderness so maybe its okay. You normally see ski areas when they're covered with snow. At least there aren't zillions of people.

At mile 34.7 is the junction with the Umbrella Falls Trail #667. Just before this is a gravel road, the only one you'll see on the entire Timberline Trail. Just before this is Mitchel Creek, the last time you'll find drinking water for a while. After the trail leaves the meadow and enters forest, at the next switchback in about 0.1 mile, there's a spot above the trail that's flat enough to sleep. Neither of these are that great.

Then you go steeply down to the most difficult crossing of the White River Crossing at mile 36.2, 4900 feet elevation. The White River is too silty to drink out of, but the Eastern fork is clear, and if you go up it (north) about 1/4 mile, there are some nice campsites with fire rings. The trail on the West side is about 0.2 miles upstream from the trail on the East side. Between is a route flagged and/or marked with cairns. The exact route varies from year to year.

At mile 37.0 is the junction with the PCT which comes up on the left from Barlow Pass, 4 miles away. Stay right on the Timberline Trail/PCT.

At mile 38.3 is the end of your trip, back at the Timberline Lodge parking area.

Alternate Trips

The most common trip is 4 days/3 nights clockwise from Timberline Lodge. Given the trailheads and campsites listed below you can cobble together your own trip.

Several trailheads that aren't too far off the Timberline Trail:

  • Timberline Lodge Trailhead - about 1/4 mile off the Timberline Trail, the access road is two lane paved, the only place on the Timberline Trail with a restauraunt and other facilities
  • Cloud Cap Trailhead - mile 25.2, about 1/2 mile off the Timberline Trail, the access road is about 9 miles of gravel a bit rough at some places
  • Top Spur Trailhead - mile 13.7, about 1/2 mile off the Timberline Trail, the access road is about 3 miles of single lane paved and 1.6 miles of fairly good gravel
  • Ramona Falls Trailhead - mile 11.0, about 1.4 miles off the PCT, the access road is about a mile of single lane paved potholed, the parking area has a reputation for vandalism

Presuming you do the hike in several days, choosing nice places to camp can make the hike better. These tend to be more exposed - another school of thought says you should camp at sheltered places and experience the exposed scenic areas while you're hiking. A number of campsites:

  • Paradise Park - mile 5, alpine meadow with great views, at least a dozen campsites spread along about a mile, year-round drinking water
  • Ramona Falls area - mile 10, forested area, Ramona Falls is a scenic destination, at least a dozen campsites in the mile south of the falls including the area next to Lost Creek, drinking water from Lost Creek or Ramona Creek
  • Cairn Basin area - mile 17.5, alpine meadow with some forested places, at least a dozen campsites at Cairn Basin and within one mile west, drinking water from McGee Creek one mile south, a creek just south, and the creek at Wy'East Basin
  • Elk Cove - mile 19.9, alpine meadow, about six campsites within 1/2 mile of Timberline Trail along the Elk Cove Trail in forested area, drinking water stream just west of the Elk Cove Trail junction
  • mile 22.2, two campsites between Coe Creek and Compass Creek in forest right next to trail, drinking water from a tributary of Coe Creek at 5700' about 1/2 mile east of main Coe Creek or from the several branches of Compass Creek
  • Cloud Cap Trailhead - mile 25.2, in a forested area, right next to the road, picnic tables, all the sites are taken on the weekend but you could find a place to put your tent, it costs $10, there's a drinking water spigot
  • Cooper Spur Shelter - mile 26.4, alpine area with great views, not too many plants, there are some flat areas for tents near the shelter, drinking water from Cloud Cap Trailhead, the Tilly Jane Creek about 1/2 mile below the shelter, or the streams at the Timberline high point
  • Timberline High Point - mile 27.6, extremely exposed alpine area not good in bad weather, there are two ridges that go east from the high point with flat spots for tents, and another spot about 1/2 mile south maybe 0.1 mile off the trail at the highest point of Gnarl Ridge, drinking water early in the season from a stream just north of the high point, a stream just south of the high point is probably good all year but maybe only in the late afternoon
  • Gnarl Ridge Shelter - mile 29.0, spots for a dozen tents on the other side of the trail, you can go a ways off the trail for privacy, closest drinking water is at the high point or Newton Creek Crossing
  • above Mount Hood Meadows - mile 31 to 34, alpine meadow area with some forested areas, there are about a dozen campsites over a 3.5 mile stretch between the Newton Creek Crossing and the Umbrella Falls Trail Junction, get drinking water from a small stream just west of Newton Creek, Mitchel Creek just east of the Umbrella Falls Trail junction, or several streams in between

If you start at a place other than Timberline Lodge, then part way through the hike, you can stop for a bite of real food and/or a drink.

Several possible hikes:

  • Start at Timberline Lodge. Go clockwise. Camp at the Ramona Falls area, Cairn Basin area, and at Gnarl Ridge (bringing water from Cloud Cap Trailhead).
  • Start at Cloud Cap Trailhead. Go counter clockwise. Get water at McGee Creek and camp at the viewpoint below McNeil Point. Camp the next nights at Paradise Park and just past the Umbrella Falls Trail junction.
  • Start at Ramona Falls Trailhead. Go clockwise. Camp at the far end of Cairn Basin, Newton Creek (12 mile day), and Paradise Park (13 mile day).
  • Start at Top Spur Trailhead. Go clockwise. Camp at Cloud Cap Trailhead, just past Umbrella Falls Trail, and Paradise Park.
  • 5 day hike to prolong the enjoyment. Start at Cloud Cap. Take the McNeil Point Trail and camp somewhere along it. If you're not too tired take a side trip up from here. Camp near Ramona Falls, then Paradise Park. Take a short side trip above Paradise Park. Camp the last night after the Umbrella Falls Trail junction.

Portland Development Commission disbands urban renewal advisory committees: Portland City Hall Roundup

PDC Will Keep Headquarters in Old Town

Portland's urban renewal agency is disbanding advisory committees with direct ties to seven urban renewal districts, instead favoring a broader group with specialized backgrounds in economic development.

Portland's process-heavy government is getting an unusual overhaul, with the city's urban renewal agency disbanding seven advisory committees over the objections of some long-serving residents.

The Portland Development Commission began notifying residents this month that the committees will disappear because of decreased staffing and the existence of a broader group pushing neighborhood development citywide.

That means goodbye to seven advisory committees made up of the residents who live and work in seven areas with urban renewal -- Lents, Gateway and Interstate neighborhood districts, and South Waterfront, Pearl District, Central Eastside and Oregon Convention Center groups in the central city.

"We're going to lose the ability to have local people identify and prioritize local projects," said Cora Lee Potter, who has been on the Lents urban renewal advisory committee since 2007, including four years as the chairwoman. "Everything good that's been accomplished in Lents so far has happened because the local group of folks said, 'This is what we need to get done now.'"

PDC officials say they are taking steps to ensure community members remain connected. John Jackley, the agency's director of business and social equity, said the changes will "absolutely not" impact local feedback.

Portland originally established advisory committees to secure community input on urban renewal plans, which guide projects and priorities within districts that have hundreds of millions of tax dollars to spend.

Each group was supposed to have seven to 17 members, who "play the important role of representing the viewpoint and insight" of community residents, business owners and others, according to PDC documents.

But now the PDC wants to rely on its Neighborhood Economic Development Leadership Group, created in 2011 to implement strategies in neighborhoods across the city. That group includes 31 members with business, banking, real estate and other professional experience.

The switch comes as the PDC cuts staff to balance its budget. The agency now has just one employee remaining from the five who handled public participation for the seven advisory committees, spokesman Shawn Uhlman said.

But change has been in the air since 2011, when the PDC switched its committee positions from three-year appointments to terms up to three years -- which could be terminated after just one year.

As for future public participation, the PDC will promote the city's Office of Neighborhood Involvement, which includes neighborhood associations. And for big projects within urban renewal districts, Jackley said, advisory committees will be created.

The broader leadership group also will be expanded to an unknown number, he said, and members from disbanded committees will be encouraged to apply.
