    that sounds like a wonderful way to see the country!

    Did you know?


    Did you know that snow isn't actually white? When light reflects from the many sides of every snowflake, it's scattered in lots of directions, diffusing the entire colour spectrum and making it appear white to the eye.

    It's a sad day in the basketball/sports world, with the sudden death of Kobe Bryant. He died today in a helicopter crash, along with 8 other people. 1 was his 13 year old daughter, also following in her father's footsteps, playing basketball. Apparently a fire broke out, onboard.



    RIP Kobe

    They called him "The Mamba" due to his killer instinct. He was truly one of a kind, the youngest to achieve many milestones…last night, LeBron wore his number on his sneakers to honour him, as he passed Kobe on the all time points list. "Its impossible to imagine what it's impossible to imagine…"

    I've decided not to hang out with Che's youngest son Ernesto.
    I think it might be bad for the planet.

    It has been reported that Che and Fidel agreed that should
    Cuba have been invaded they wanted the Russians to
    launch a nuclear first strike against the Americans
    with the missiles in Cuba in order to experience a 'beautiful martyrdom'.

    That's when the Russians decided nuclear weapons
    were too dangerous left in Cuba and removed them.

    The five Studebaker brothers—founders of the Studebaker Corporation:
    Left to right, (standing) Peter and Jacob; (seated)
    Clem, Henry, and John M.


    Clement and Henry Studebaker Jr., became blacksmiths and foundrymen in South Bend, Indiana, in February 1852.

    They first made metal parts for freight wagons and later expanded into the manufacture of complete wagons.
    At this time, John M. was making wheelbarrows in Placerville, California. The site of his business is California Historic Landmark #142.

    The first major expansion in Henry and Clem's South Bend business came from their being in the right place to meet the needs of the California Gold Rush that began in 1849. From his wheelbarrow enterprise at Placerville, John M. had amassed $8,000.

    In April 1858, he quit and moved out to apply this to financing the vehicle manufacturing of H & C Studebaker, which was already booming because of an order to build wagons for the US Army. In 1857, they had also built their first carriage—
    "Fancy, hand-worked iron trim, the kind of courting buggy any boy and girl would be proud to be seen in".[14]:p.24

    That was when John M. bought out Henry's share of the business. Henry was deeply religious and had qualms about building military equipment. The Studebakers were Dunkard Brethren, conservative German Baptists,[15] a religion that viewed war as evil.

    Longstreet's official company history simply says, "Henry was tired of the business. He wanted to farm.
    The risks of expanding were not for him".

    Expansion continued from manufacture of wagons for westward migration, as well as for farming and general transportation.

    During the height of westward migration and wagon train pioneering, half of the wagons used were Studebakers.

    They made about a quarter of them, and manufactured the metal fittings for other builders in Missouri for another quarter-century.


    STUDEBAKER TIMELINE

    1852 — The Studebaker brothers begin making buggy and wagons.
    1910 — The first Canadian Studebaker plant opens in Walkerville, near Windsor.
    1946 — The company buys a Hamilton factory the Canadian government had built in 1941 to make anti-aircraft guns.
    Aug. 18, 1948 — The first car rolls off the assembly line at Hamilton's new Studebaker plant. Between 48 and 70 cars would be produced each day, five days a week, at the 740,000-square-foot-plant on Mars Avenue.
    1955 — Truck production ends in Hamilton.
    1963 — The struggling company closes its South Bend plant and shifts production to Hamilton. The dated Studebakers were not selling well.
    1964 — Hamilton Police, in an attempt to help out the struggling plant, order 20 cars to add to its cruiser fleet.
    1966 — 129,325 cars and trucks later, the plant shuts down, leaving close to 700 employees out of work. The last car produced, a turquoise Lark Cruiser four-door sedan, rolled off the line on March 17.
    2012 — The factory is torn down. A new industrial park is pitched in its place.
    2016 — A commemorative plaque is to be erected at the site of the former plant.
