The ultimate is The Greenbrier in White Sulpher Springs, West Virginia. In the early 1950's photo to the left: Sam (the Pro) and Ike (the President) are enjoying some great golf on a great course.
Don't know who the other two are, but then I just asked The Greenbrier for a golf photo of Sam Snead and Dwight Eisenhower.

From 1897 until 1934, the greens in Pinehurst were composed of sand and clay. They were usually a square of about 40’ x 40,’ and were rolled daily and sprinkled with a mixture of oil and water. The surface was as hard as a billiard table! Old carpet remnants were used to “sweep” the greens after use. At one point, Gene Sarazen suggested that the golf hole be expanded to 8 inches, instead of the standard 4 1/4 inches. He thought that it would even out the playing field for average players. His idea was tried out in Pinehurst, and was found not to make an appreciable difference, and was not adopted.
Immerse yourself in the finest golf experience at Pinehurst and follow in the footsteps of golf legends. |
"one of the ten best public courses in the state" Golfweek The natural contour of the course sweeps along the western shore of Lake Otsego. The mid holes climb to elevated fairways and tees that provide unforgettable views of the Lake and the adjoining grounds of Fenimore Art Museum and The Farmers' Museum . The18th hole may be the most exciting on the course - a 505-yard, par 5 with an island tee box on Lake Otsego. The hole "dog legs" to the left around the lake, and the green is located in front of The Otesaga’s veranda. |
One of the premier features of The Otesaga is its 72 par Leatherstocking Golf Course. Designed in 1909 by Devereux Emmet, it is considered by many to be one of the East's most scenic and challenging resort golf courses.
The Otesaga...voted 55th Best Golf Resort in the US by readers of Condé Nast Traveler Magazine. "Awarded 4-1/2 stars by Golf Digest." "second highest overall rating for public courses in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut" Zagat Golf Course Survey |

The Sagamore Golf Course: A splendid mountainside links designed by Donald Ross.
Honored by Golf Magazine as one of its Silver Medal Resorts, this beautiful hillside course overlooks Lake George and was designed and built under Donald Ross's personal supervision in 1928. As part of a $75 million restoration in 1985, the legendary course was fully restored according to Ross's original blueprints. In classic Ross fashion, The Sagamore's golf course uses the natural environment to give each hole its challenge and beauty. The holes are routed naturally through an upland meadow and the Adirondack woods, where white birches enliven the evergreen forest. To add an accent to the rolling mountainside terrain, Ross planted heather from his own native Scotland within the meadow. Lush fairways are narrow and lined with hardwoods, while deep bunkers surround undulating greens. From the elevated first tee, you have a breathtaking view of Lake George and the Adirondack peaks. Golf Digest rated this course as the "5th Best Public Course in New York State." In addition, Corporate and Incentive Travel gave it a "Greens of Distinction" award and Condé Nast named it a top U.S. resort course. |

ec-bp.com The Forum for Supply Chain Integration
ec-bp was established in 2005 as the advocate for lowering the barriers to the adoption of EDI, and our email newsletter has been published every month since that time. Our focus has expanded beyond EDI to encompas the full gamut of supply chain practices and technologies. In addition, our readership has grown to become the largest of any similarly focused publication, and has expanded to include more than 90,000 professionals involved in nearly every aspect of the supply chain. Today’s supply chain is more than simple transport of EDI documents. The complexity of maintaining compliance with trading partners, managing the ever increasing amount of data, and analyzing that data to drive constant improvement in processes and service take supply chain professionals far beyond the basics of mapping EDI documents. |

Records show that the incredible natural landscape that defines golf in Dornoch has hosted golfers since 1616 and we are proud that the tradition has continued into the 21st century.
The responsibility for actually designing our Championship course fell to the legendary Old Tom Morris who used the unique links-land features to create a magical golfing experience – one that prompted Tom Watson, five times Open Champion, to say ‘it’s the most fun I’ve ever had on a golf course’! We have a generously stocked bar and a restaurant serving anything from hot filled rolls to a full dinner menu. And for those who don’t golf, Dornoch’s superb ‘blue flag’ beaches and historic old town are just a short walk away. Royal Dornoch is only 45 miles from the bustling city of Inverness, but is a true haven of peace, tranquillity and, of course, world class golf. We look forward to welcoming you soon. |

Railroads On The Rebound |
|
|
Over the last 50+ years, railroads have changed a lot. Now they are about to change again.
It is all about a combination of economic factors and climate factors. Since 1950 , railroads have consolidated. Freight moved from a "box car mentality" to a "unit train,mentality". Passenger went from a robust business to a "caretaker" arrangement called AMTRAK. This happened as everybody could drive for free on the Interstate Highway System or fly on an airline system where the government subsidized both airlines and airports. In the meantime, railroad express and railroad post offices went "down the tubes". The old Post Office Department and the Railway Express Agency could not adjust to the new way. UPS and Fex Ex could. |

Carbon Calculator
What's the most environmentally-friendly way to transport goods? The answer is freight rail. The EPA estimates that every ton-mile of freight that moves by rail instead of by highway reduces greenhouse emissions by two-thirds. But what does that really mean? Our easy-to-use carbon calculator will estimate the amount of carbon dioxide that can be prevented from entering our environment just by using freight rail instead of trucks. We'll even tell you how many seedlings you'd need to plant to have the same effect. |

A new term is appearing in the supply chain arena:
"Supply Chain Control Tower". Just as an airport control tower coordinates airplanes landing and taking off, a Supply Chain Control Tower coordinates inbound and outbound distribution flows. Sure sounds more professional than a "dashboard".
It is all about "knowledge". Air controllers get information on weather, speed, direction, and altitude of aircraft and use that knowledge to keep their air space safe. Companies must know what is happening with their supply chains so they can prevent disasters too. They need to be able to do "what-if" analysis and work their way around events that will cause disruption and risks to the supply chain.

What is a 7PL? Since I wrote my definitions article on 3PL / 4PL / 5PL / 6PL, 4PL has become almost as well known as 3PL; but the terms 5PL and 6PL have not exactly become household words. Now we have: 3PL + 4PL = 7PL. Let's quickly review these definitions: Among the services 3PLs provide are transportation, warehousing, cross-docking, inventory management, packaging/repackaging, and freight forwarding. Examples of value-added services also provided by 3PL providers might include: (1) pick and pack; (2) marking, tagging, and labeling; (3) product returns and reverse distribution; (4) salvage and scrap disposal; (5) telemarketing. While a 4PL is sometimes described as non-asset-owning service provider, their role is to provide broader scope managing of the entire supply chain. Now, along comes the 5PL who sometimes define themselves as broadening the scope further to e-business. A 6PL adds in import/export customs. Don't forget, the 1PL is the shipper or the consignee, and the 2PL are actual carriers, warehouses, etc. Read more |
