Old Engine 844

Here is history of Eng 844 from UPRR.

 

My Love for trains go back to when I was a young boy.  I saved my money and bought a Lionel Train Set.  My dad got interested and converted a large room in the basement to the train room.  He had trains running everywhere, and I got to play engineer.  I have been chasing steam trains every since.  Had the privilege of taking my 93 year old dad over to the Boise depot yesterday to see good old engine 844.  He enjoyed being up close to it while it was steamed up.

Steam Locomotive No. 844 is the last steam locomotive built for Union Pacific Railroad. It was delivered in 1944. A high-speed passenger engine, it pulled such widely known trains as the Overland Limited, Los Angeles Limited, Portland Rose and Challenger.
Many people know the engine as the No. 8444, since an extra '4' was added to its number in 1962 to distinguish it from a diesel numbered in the 800 series. The steam engine regained its rightful number in June 1989, after the diesel was retired.
When diesels took over all of the passenger train duties, No. 844 was placed in freight service in Nebraska between 1957 and 1959. It was saved from being scrapped in 1960 and held for special service.
The engine has run hundreds of thousands of miles as Union Pacific's ambassador of goodwill. It has made appearances at Expo '74 in Spokane, the 1981 opening of the California State Railroad Museum in Sacramento, the 1984 World's Fair in New Orleans and the 50th Anniversary Celebration of Los Angeles Union Station in 1989.
Hailed as Union Pacific's "Living Legend," the engine is widely known among railroad enthusiasts for its excursion runs, especially over Union Pacific's fabled crossing of Sherman Hill between Cheyenne and Laramie, Wyoming.

Kelly Lloyd saves a life!

Kelly Lloyd, wife of Acclaimed Video team member , Brad Lloyd, was honored Wednesday , May 26th at the Meridian City Council Meeting.  Mayor Tammie DeWeerd presented Kelly with a plaque for being a true "Hometown Hero" for rescueing an elderly veteran from a canal where he was submerged up to his neck.  The elderly gentleman, an American hero himself, not only survived but was able to attend the ceremony , along with his dog who also played a key role in the rescue.  It was the dog that Kelly saw running up and down the bank that made her think something was not quite right.  She took the time to investigate and saved a life.

Marketing and Sales getting more complex

This from b2b.com January 7, 2010...

There's no escaping the reality of today's sales environment – a more discerning and educated buyer has lengthened sales cycles and puts more pressure on Sales and Marketing professionals. Plus, the increasing availability of information has changed customers path to purchase and social media and online channels have heightened expectations and created a more educated and demanding customer.

Data from 5,000+ B2B customers shows that vendors that deliver value beyond simply matching products to customer needs have a distinct competitive advantage.

Unfortunately, many sales and marketing organizations struggle to deliver insight that truly assists buyers.

Sales and Marketing teams need to align around a strategy that creates an effective "purchase experience" for buyers. Steve Woods, CTO of Eloqua and Anthony Anticole, Director of the Marketing and Sales Practice of the Corporate Executive Board, will address the following topics during this live session:

* How to understand where buyers are in their purchase experience through observations of their online behavior
* How to design scalable interactions (social media, tradeshows, webinars, web sites, etc.) to reach buyers where they are
* How to assist prospects in their buying process – directly, with relevant content

WHAT IS YOUR COMPANY DOING ABOUT THE NEW TRENDS? HAVE YOU CONSIDERED ONLINE VIDEO AS PART OF YOUR MARKETING?

Can there be any doubt

Can there be any doubt about the future of marketing now that Google has announced its own phone?
