Garmin’s newest line of trail handheld GPS systems is the X-Series. The X-Series units are made for high performance and durability. These units give improved satellite reception in heavy tree cover or in deep canyons. One of the neatest features of the X-Series units is the SD memory card capabilities. This allows you to go to a retailer (Cabela’s for example) and purchase a SD card that is preloaded with detailed information on the specific place where you are hunting or hiking (trails, topography, etc). These features make the Garmin X-series a dream for any outdoorsman.

The nice thing about Coast Del Mar glasses is that you don’t have to sacrifice style for performance.

Not only can you get top quality performance with Costa Del Mar glasses, you don’t have to spend an arm and a leg to get them. The majority of Costa Del Mar’s glasses can be purchased for between $100-$200.

Nicholas Coleman was born in Provo, Utah, the son of artist Michael Coleman. Brought up in an artistic environment, Coleman has been painting and drawing for as long as he can remember. He has traveled extensively, painting studies and taking photographs for later works. His travels have taken him across North America, through Africa, and Europe. Coleman lived and worked in Brazil for two years. Coleman finds inspiration through his travels, and the hunting and fishing he does along the way, as well as in history, art museums and other artists. These include his father Michael Coleman, Bruno Liljefors, Wilhelm Kuhnert, Carl Rungius,Thomas Moran, Albert Bierstadt, and Frank Tenney Johnson. (The list could go on and on.)Coleman uses a traditional academic approach in his painting, using gouache and oil. However, he doesn’t like to label his style as “realism,” as there is a certain amount of spontaneity and a slight impressionistic feel to his paintings. Coleman endeavors to create a connection between his paintings and the observer by invoking a mood that the viewer can walk into.He plans to continue working hard at what he loves; his father told him, “you are only as good as your last painting,” so Coleman continually strives to improve his abilities. Never one to miss an opportunity, he also wants to improve his etching and sculpting skills.

As an artist, there is a tremendous feeling of satisfaction that comes from capturing that special moment in paint. In a world filled with chaos, I hope my art brings something peaceful and comforting to the viewer. I strive to evoke a sense of mystery, beauty and drama.

With her new album, New Moon Born, poised to burst onto the mainstream music scene, it’s no wonder Jana Mashonee is all smiles these days. The album represents a significant departure from her previous endeavors, taking on a decidedly more upbeat rhythm and blues flavor. “The album is about rebirth and new beginnings; it reflects a phase in my life that has taken on a different shape and direction from anything I’ve done before,” she says. “This music conveys my personal truths and beliefs.” In addition to providing all the vocals and piano, Jana wrote and co-produced the album.
