Built-in tools can make it easy to customize CRM, but it still takes effort to translate your business knowledge into fine-tuned Customer Relationship Management screens, workflows and analytics. Take a bit of time to understand what you are trying to do before jumping into customization. The effort you spend up front will pay off in […]
A decision by the US Circuit Court of Appeals may be the end of the road for two decades of litigation between Novell and Microsoft. After a 2012 jury deadlocked 11 to 1 in favor of Novell, there was speculation that Microsoft would settle, but a surprise decision by the judge in that trial led […]

This narrow passage opens into a sheltered cove at Point Lobos. Over a hundred years ago, whalers brought their catch into this anchorage to strip the blubber and boil the oil.
At the heart of Cathedral Valley are the Temples of the Sun and Moon. The great explorer and politician John Fremont named many of the most evocative places in the West, including these.
The bare and colorful cliffs of Dinosaurland were once a steaming marsh filled with wildlife. We seldom find dinosaur bones, but when we do the location is sent to the Natural History Museum in Salt Lake City so the professional paleontologists can excavate the animals that lived here over 100 million years ago. This is […]
In May 2012 we experienced an incredibly rare ‘ring of fire’ eclipse of the sun, where the black disk of the moon is fringed with brilliant fire from the sun. A couple of thousand people came from all over the world to witness this with us at the edge of Bryce Canyon in Utah. Legend […]
South of Murdock Peak are the multitude of Park City ski runs. On the North side, we hike from my house to the summit once a year. In the autumn oaks burn golden before the aspens flash their yellow colors.
The tomahawk and feather themes of Native American crafts are re-interpreted in this flowing Variscite pendant. The bronze colored spiderweb matrix is very rare, I have only found a handful of this stuff and it’s quite fragile. The piece is quite large, suitable for one of the ample women in my life.

Variscite from the Lucin ghost town
Over a hundred years ago, the Transcontinental Railroad stopped at a tiny town on the West side of the Great Salt Lake. The engine filled its boiler tank from the spring water here, and passengers got off to rest after the hot journey across the salt flats. The town is long gone, and most of […]
Mabe Pearl in Hammered Copper and Sterling
OK, not all of my stones come from Utah, this is a spectacular Mabe pearl from Tahiti. The setting creates a contrast between the smooth flowing natural form and the rough hammered and stippled metal.
Tin Can Flat Agate in Geometric Setting
The strong Modernist lines in many of my pieces come from my childhood training in mid-century art and architecture. The material for this piece comes from Tin Can Flat, near the confluence of the Green and Colorado Rivers. The “artifact” at this site is an enormous pile of rusted tin cans, left by the sheepherders […]
