Request to send Freedmen's teachers to Richmond, 1865
Contributed by Maine Historical Society
Within several days of the fall of the Confederate capital of Richmond, J. B. Thayer of Boston, secretary of the New England Freedmen's Aid Society, wrote to Brig. Gen. George F. Shepley, military governor of Richmond, seeking permission to "send teachers for the instruction of the colored people at Richmond."
Thayer noted that his law partner, P. W. Chandler, knew Shepley. Chandler added a note.
Shepley, a Maine native, practiced law in Bangor and Portland and served as U.S. Attorney in Maine before the war.

Definitely they (via, amd, intel) provided specifications for kernel developers. For example intel has not provided their specs for centrino yet, but promised they would deliver closed source drivers. Not sure about the current situation. 2 years ago, it was (almost) impossible to run linux on an nvidia chipset based MoBo. Same problem. So in short: yes. Marek

I was down at the Rose Bowl Aquatics Center last Tuesday afternoon for the kick-off of the national diving championships when who should appear on the platform in jams-length trunks but … Pasadena Councilman Steve Haderlein. It was some kind of promotion for the whole deal in which the vice mayor was pitted against a young man who actually competes in diving. First Steve did a flip off a low board; then the kid did a flip. Nicely executed by both. Then the kid got up on the 3-meter board and did something very complicated for Steve to emulate. Instead he with good cheer simply performed this swan dive …

Glowing in the dark
Saturday night Santa Monica, in homage to the Nuite Blanche of Paris, put on its own all-night art party, Glow.
From dusk to dawn, on the palisades, on the beach, on the pier, there was indeed art — most of it lighted, some of it even glowing.
We went out from about midnight until about 2 in the morning — Julia, Phoebe and I, joined by Julia's friend Aria and our French exchange student Lisa. Not coming back to Pasadena until 3 in the morning made for a rather later than usual Saturday night even for the teenage girls.
Did it work? That's complicated. The huge turnout showed how hungry Southern Californians are for a shared art experience, a kind of Burning Man closer to home. I saw no crowd estimates, nor did I call the Santa Monica police for one — but there were likely 100,000 people there. Bumper to bumper on the 10 approaching PCH for a mile at 11:30 at night. At 1:30 in the morning, the Santa Monica Pier was so crowded over its entire length that you could barely walk. So as far as turnout goes, Glow rocked.
Lots of people, good — not enough art, bad. There was simply a dearth of stuff to look at. You wouldn't know it from the online program — reading it, you would think there was art everywhere.
Certainly, there was art. Two things that worked were Primal Source, lights projected on fountain, above, an interactive piece by Usman Haque apparently influenced by passing conversations, and Pasadena artist Peter Tolkin's Dunnage Ball, shown below, a really fun installation made of 30 dunnage bags — those big inflatable pillows used to stabilize cargo. They were great, and drew thousands of people onto the beach.
The grunion, which might have made an appearance, gave it a miss. Too many people on their sand.
Lessons learned, let's Glow again, like we did last summer.
Bill Provence's electric roadster
You might remember reading in my column or in Melissa Pamer's feature story about Pasadenan Bill Provence and his quest to build a street-legal, three-wheeled electric car to retail for less than $10,000. Here's a view of the roadster in a recent Art Center grad's rendering. Bill is in Michigan again, and e-mails that "the body is being sculpted as I write. Road testing is also taking place (so far, we have found that our estimated 40 mile range may be off …" — it may be a lot better!
Birdman of the Arroyo Seco
This morning at the end of our run Charlie stopped short at the tailgate of a pickup truck on Parkview Avenue.
"That a bird dog?" August Culver asked.
"Not hardly — he's a sheep dog," I said. "Whatcha got back there?"
Pigeons is what he had — dozens of them. I made what must be the classic mistake of calling them carrier pigeons, the extinct species. August explained that they are racing pigeons, and that he brought them to the edge of the Arroyo for release, 40 miles due west of his house in Ontario. They would be home before he was, he said. We watched dozens zoom out of his hands, dip down over Brookside Golf Course and then head straight east down the line of the foothills — well, mostly. A few went a little bit north or south for a time.
"Sometimes they'll just totally go the wrong way at first," August said. "Especially if there is a female around." One, in fact, flew no farther than the back of his truck, where he took up a roost. Most were brilliant in their focus on flying.
While some fellows in his sport are into serious wagering, August says his buddies in the American Racing Pigeon Union are just hobbyists who enjoy the sport of it.
These were young ones, less than a year old, raised by hand. When they get older and deeper into their training, they fly to a place he has up in Oregon. He says he knows their personalities sometimes before they've barely cracked their egg shells.
How many pigeons does he have? "Too many," August says.
He also uses them to help ADHD kids calm down and focus by learning how to gently treat animals, he says.
How do they navigate? No one really knows, he says. But August's theory, based on a federal study that showed pigeons can't find their bearings when their ears are stuffed with wax, is that they have extraordinary hearing. They can hear, he believes, the winds in the mountains and the waves on the ocean, even from dozens of miles away. By triangulating the quality of those sounds, they find their way home.
Judith Ann Zoey Zitter
As I was not among those with the poise to stand up and eulogize the remarkable Judith Sunday at the simply unbelievably wrenching memorial to her life, attended by over 300 Pasadenans and others at a sad and yet celebratory block party in front of her and Neil's Historic Highlands home, I was not able to tell any Judith stories:
Like the time decades ago when she and her family invited a bunch of us to go white-water rafting, my first time, on the Kern River. It's rated 4+ on a 5 scale. My front-of-the-raft rowing partner, who I met that day: the indominitable Isaac Richard, in his pre-council mode. What a guy to paddle with. A Rose Princess — Portland Rose Parade, that is — was our guide. In two days, fully two people broke their legs when their boats turned over. It was rough fun. No half-measures for Judith, no mild recreations.
Or when she used her expertise as a former social worker, a career in which she had formal training in adoption, to advise Phoebe, concerned about some (in retrospect) technical issues we had during an adoption: "Don't worry, sweetie — every single adoption has its own problems. It'll work out fine." And of course it did.
Judith, for many years now involved in health-care advocacy for Kaiser, but formerly a political animal, was the kind of person who makes politics look good. Everything was no more or less than a community issue, one that could be solved by knocking on doors and talking to people and making sense and thus bringing them into your cause.
Judith just made tons of sense for all of her 53 years. It is a devastatingly poorer world without her.
Here's a link to some pictures of the service from Pasadena PIO Ann Erdman's blog:
When we were down surfing last week my dear friend Elaine Ahmad and her loving partner Tomiko Stein were also in North County San Diego with their boys Diego and Teo — but not for a mere romp on the beach. They took advantage of the swell Supreme Court ruling and got married. That was the civil part, signing in as Spouse A and Spouse B. Real ceremony TK. Vaya con dios!
The night before we left, at the Zorthian/Feynman/Davies opening at the Armory Center for the Arts in Old Pasadena, of course the nymphs were there:
They were almost as racy as Jirayr's drawings:
That's Toby Zorthian, back at the original ranch on a visit from the wilds of Alberta:
IndyMac rock
Great financial minds think alike, what?
No, I don't mean I'd broken the piggy bank and gone in on the Panhandle wind farms the same day Boone Pickens did this week.
I mean when today at 3 p.m. I mentioned to our advertising manager, Michael Moreno, that federal agents in the form of the FDIC were across the street shutting down IndyMac Bank, he slapped his hand on his desk.
"Dang — good thing I didn't follow my instincts and buy stock when they slipped to 44 cents the other day."
I'd seen that same price and thought the same thing. Half a buck a share for the bank that just 18 months ago Chairman and CEO Michael Perry of San Marino described as "one of the 10 largest thrifts in the country, with almost $30 billion in assets" — excellent deal, no?
That was the day Perry was donating $10,000 with a big mock check at a grip-and-grin for the San Marino Library Foundation — on top of the $100,000 it had already given the library's construction capital campaign.
Those days are over. Friday his outfit, which rode the sub-prime boom until it became the crisis, became the biggest retail bank to fail in the mortgage debacle. In fact, analysts are saying it's the biggest failure since the S&L crisis of the late 1980s.
It's such a complicated failure that the government can't actually let it go under entirely — tomorrow the North Lake Avenue tower will become headquarters for the new IndyMac Federal Bank for a time.
But it's a massive failure nonetheless. The blame goes, in order, to: 1) The bank. Making hay by making loans to people who couldn't possibly repay them was unconscionable, not to mention bad business in the long run. 2) Wall Street. Our nation's financial geniuses encouraged the fraudulent lending by telling thrifts they'd create a complicated new kind of commercial paper in bundled mortgages — the more mortgages, the better. In so doing, they've tanked the markets for the rest of us. Some made out like bandits and are laughing on East Hampton lawns as they read the news from Pasadena. For the rest of us schmucks, that's real money we're losing in our 401(k)s, ya creeps. 3) Home buyers who took out the loans and went along with the prodding from mortgage peddlers to lie about their incomes and assets in order to move into the mini-manse in the sprawl.
Caveat emptor applies to us all. But the little guys still get the stiffest shaft. Because you can bet the ranch the big guys salted away enough scratch to see themselves through until the next scam comes along . . .
That Jesse Jackson genius
It's small beer, journalism scandal-wise, this matter of the L.A. Times running that Photoshopped picture Thursday from the Eye Ranians depicting a fake-successful version of their dud missile launch.
Desperate for a shot that wasn't a video screen capture, lots of other photo editors promoted the same pic, moved late in the day by Agence France Presse. In hindsight, it was a little too good to be true — the missiles all look the same, as do their angles of attack — but deadlines will force decisions on a Page 1 editor.
No, the scandal I mean is the failure to see the genius behind this apparent dis of Barrack Obama by Jesse Jackson — you know, the one in which Jackson whispered on "Fox & Friends," supposedly thinking that he was off-mike, that he'd like to . . . er, emasculate the junior senator from Illinois for "talking down to black people."
Now, I wouldn't know "Fox & Friends" from "The Huntley-Brinkley Report." I don't watch the network, which you can't trust farther than you can throw Roger Ailes. But I caught the clip on the Web, the aside to another guest about Jackson's supposed anger at Obama for his recent speeches at black churches about the need for two-parent households.
A perfect ploy. Who's the big ego moderate and conservative whites and African Americans love to hate?
Jesse is.
So what better way to gin up support among the undecided for the presumed Democratic nominee for president than having the Reverend J. lay into him?
It's been too long a political season already. But moments like this make it all worthwhile.

President Goodluck Jonathan Thursday subtly defended his decision to leave out fuel subsidy from the 2012 budget, painting a graphic picture of how the country has been borrowing to fund capital projects when the money spent on subsidy alone would have sufficed instead.
But the House of Representatives has demanded that subsidy must be returned to the budget.
In the Senate, members were unanimous in condemning the provision of N922 billion for security in the 2012 budget - a position the House also agrees with, arguing that the vote was bloated and lopsided against some key sectors such as power, education and agriculture, even when Nigeria was not at war.
Jonathan said government borrowed the entire capital budget was N1.146 trillion this year, whereas it has paid over N1.2 trillion for fuel subsidy alone. "This year with the present budget, we are paying back the part of the money we borrowed but what is in the budget is only N560 billion, just about half of the money we borrowed. Who will pay the balance and when, with interest? There is no way we can continue to run the economy this way," he said.
He said he did not intend to take decisions that would create pains for Nigerians but insisted that he had to do it for the people to start enjoying life instead of continuing in the window-dressing that stalls growth and development. Jonathan was speaking yesterday night at the 2011 Christmas Carol Service at the at the Banquet Hall of the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
He said: "I would not have loved to mention the issue of deregulation but it is a very topical issue. Sometimes it even comes in our religious houses. I would plead with religious leaders, both Christians and Muslims, to join government to see how we can improve the economy of this country. Demand for everything is increasing. During the civil war how many cars did we have? How many roads did we have? The demand for everything has expanded over the period. So we have more challenges and we believe that with the present situation, for quite some years, government has been borrowing money to run its affairs and the amount we borrowed continues to increase. Who are we borrowing these monies for? Who will come and pay the debt? I normally ask."
Jonathan warned that unless the economy was diversified and aggressive agriculture and industrialisation pursued, the oil reserve of the country might be depleted within the next 35 to 40 years which would mean enslaving the future generations. He asked what life would be like without oil if the country that has oil still borrows to fund its operations.
"Government must look for ways to expand the economy. We must look for other ways of earning money. We must go back to farming and not just subsistence farming that we know but really taking farming as a business... we must create wealth through farming... we must industrialise... we must begin to produce things in this country and we need the subsidy to do that and especially with the number of people graduating from the universities every year. How do we create jobs for them? And I believe we cannot continue to borrow. In fact last year our capital budget was N1.146 trillion and we borrowed the whole capital budget and even a little more.
" There is no way we can continue to run the economy this way. We find it difficult to do things that appear not to be popular and I know that one of the things that worry us is the fear of the unknown. If there is subsidy, what will life be? Yes, we know there will be a little pain because we know ourselves. Nigerians sometimes exploit opportunities.
"Ordinarily the pains would have been minimal in the sense that as we are talking now diesel is deregulated since Obasanjo time and nobody is going to touch [the price of] diesel and most of the vehicles we use [for goods transportation] use diesel. Ordinarily, transport cost for any vehicle that use diesel is not supposed to change but Nigerians being what they are at the beginning will try to be funny. We must encourage use of gas and all that and use of vehicles that have fuel efficiency," Jonathan said.
He likened the beginning of new experiences to the fear of the unknown, pointing at the experience of the GSM revolution in Nigeria where, he said, "they were even hoarding the SIM cards [when operations started]. To buy a SIM card at a time you had to do funny things because people were desperate but now the companies give you SIM card with [pre-loaded] credit on it just to hook up to their line. I tell Nigerians that we are very hopeful and so nobody should fear".
He said no government would intentionally inflict pains on his people and distanced himself from such actions and decisions but asked for the support of Nigerians to get the country running well again.
"The pains will be temporary; after few weeks or few months, Nigerians will be better off. The economy will be repositioned. We must aggressively pursue agriculture, we must aggressively pursue industrialisation for jobs to be created in the economy," he explained.
But earlier yesterday, Chairman, House Committee on Media and Public Affairs, Hon. Zakary Mohammed (PDP/ Kwara), said fuel subsidy must be provided for in the budget.
"We have taken a decision that we do not want subsidy taken out of the budget so definitely subsidy has to be in the budget. The House of Representatives still stands on that fact that we are not voting for subsidy removal because there are key indicators and conditions that we have set before subsidy can be removed. One of them is that our refineries must be fixed to refine products and reduce our dependence on imported fuel," he stated.
Mohammed said Nigerians and the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) should not entertain any fears about the alleged secret removal of subsidy because the parliament was poised to dissect the budget document to identify the grey areas in it and amend them before its passage into law. He said though the budget was presented very late in the year, it would be wrong to write off the entire document as a disaster until its contents have been fully assessed on sector by sector basis.
"The budget has been laid before the House but we would not take it hook line and sinker. We would look at each of these sectors according to their merit and we think that defence (security) should not take as much as that (N921.91billion), almost a trillion. We believe it is on the high side.
"We can take out some funds from the defence allocation and take it to areas like power sector which has a potential of impacting positively on the rate of unemployment in the country. If our industries are moribund and some are trying to move out of Nigeria because of the power situation, they will definitely come back and a lot of our population would be employed. "For NLC to describe the entire budget document as a disaster may not be right. We might have our areas of disagreement but we have to look at it from all perspectives to really understand its content.
Even though it came late, it is incumbent on us to do our own lawful functions on that budget. We are definitely going to dissect every part of that budget and take money from where we think are overloaded to other areas where we think can be a boost to the economy. Our economy is fragile and like the case of a patient in an emergency ward that needs all the support of experts," he said. Senators yesterday also began the consideration of the bill, with many of them venting their spleen on some aspects of the budget presented to a joint session of the National Assembly on Tuesday by President Goodluck Jonathan.
In their various comments on the general principle of the 2012 Appropriation Bill yesterday, the lawmakers were unanimous in their condemnation of the N921.91 billion allocated to security, as well as the preponderance of recurrent over capital expenditure.
According to the senators, the problem of insecurity in the country is largely caused by youth unemployment, which could be a thing of the past if priority attention is given to agriculture, which could mop up the unemployment market. But the Co-ordinating Minister of the Economy and Minister of Finance, Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, had, while giving a breakdown of the budget on Wednesday, disclosed that the security vote was meant for Defence, Police Affairs and Police Formations, National Security Adviser and Ministry of Interior.
There was however a general agreement that some of the proposals in the Appropriation Bill are laudable and, if well implemented, could restore hope to the country. The attack on the security vote was led by Senator Olubunmi Adetunmbi (ACN, Ekiti North) who noted that the sectoral allocations were not reflective of what the country needed especially as it related to huge security vote.
Adetunmbi faulted the allocation to the security sector which he said was four times what is given to health. "What is going into the security is six times what we are spending for power. The prioritisation of our spending is not reflective of what is happening in our economy. If we spend more on agriculture, which can provide jobs, we won't worry about security," he said.
The lawmaker complained that the budget was silent on safety nets to cushion the effect of the transformation Nigerians expected.
He described 35 ministries and over 800 parastatals as a huge drain on the economy. Deputy Senate President Ike Ekweremadu said the budget, if well implemented, would restore hope in the nation.
Ekweremadu urged the Senate "to do something" about late presentation of the budget as well as open up the process of budgeting. He argued that the processes leading to the drawing of the budget estimates were shrouded in secrecy.

Welcome, although your early association with
might be difficult to overcome...
There are some extensive threads on this indexed that perhaps might have a tidbit or two for you in your design process. But then again maybe not; you are further along than any other 640a monkey.
They look good so far, many would want them to extend far enough back to protect the entire side of the tank in a low side slide. I would want them to curl around and attach to the hardware on the inside (front only unfortunately) and parhaps mould around other parts ("snap on"?) for better fastening.
The petcock protection might be a 'pie in the sky' if you know the phrase; some have discussed using an aluminum reinforcement loop to allow for non-stop switching. But the best petcock protection is likely the rallye skidplate boxes.
This stuff and maybe more in those threads.

Abs Workout
The 4 Best Abs Moves You've Never Done
Reinvent your core workout with this killer 10-minute series created by celebrity fitness trainer Jay Cardiello
10-Minute Abs Workout
Get off your back: Doing endless crunches is an outdated way to work your abs. "To effectively take inches off your waist, you should work the muscles below your belt," says Jay Cardiello, celebrity fitness trainer and creator of JCORE System. When you work muscles below the navel, you hit the three largest muscle groups in the body, which burns more calories and fat, he explains. Working more muscles uses more energy, which translates to more calories burned. Melt fat and reveal your six-pack with Cardiello's 10-minute core workout.
Get Started: Do each exercise as many times as possible in 30 seconds. Follow each 30-second burst with a 30-second recovery period. Perform each move two to three times.
Tip: Concentrate on form, and then gradually increase the pace as you master each movement.

On her tour of the new website, Toothy has found some interesting threads that she'll definitely have to delve into over the next few days and weeks. She didn't find anything akin to the third person thread that was very popular on the old board, so takes the plunge and creates one in her new home.
For anyone who hasn't a clue what Toothy is on about (or even on!), this is the thread where boardies can let it all hang out but using the third person. No first person pronouns (aka the forbidden pronoun) are used on this thread.
Toothy has no idea how this started on the HC board but it was the most popular thread and some have already said they really want to see it here, too. Igor has lowered the lightning rod and here is the resurrected result.
And... away the boardies go!

Date of Stay: June, 2013
Part of the park is wooded with shaded spots, part (the part closest to the ocean) open without any trees. Campsites are nice and level- very wide and spacious with plenty of room. The size of the sites was the biggest plus of the campground for us. However, some of the roadways were kind of narrow with trees right up against the blacktop that crowded the roadway. It definitely got a bit stressful when driving to the site. One of the roads even has a tree growing right in the middle of it, with limbs sticking out just waiting to shred your roof. There is nothing to warn you when you turned down that road. When you get to the point where you realize there is a tree in the road, you're committed, unless you want to back up about 50 yards. Campfires are permitted at the sites, but there are no rings or specific fire areas. Plus, the constant beach wind would make fires difficult. Only saw three campfires out of hundreds of sites. Plenty of water pressure at the sites. Unreliable WI-FI. It is sporadic throughout the park, but is very slow. They allow golf carts, which is nice instead of having to walk everywhere (and the park is very large, so there would be a lot of walking). The downside to that is that there are hundreds of golf carts running around everywhere. However, we never saw anyone do anything unsafe or out of control. There's just are a lot of them. They are building a new water park area with slides and a lazy river (opening around September 2013), but they aren't doing anything to the pool, which isn't that big and is kind of dated. The playground is nice and there are a fair number of activities for the kids. Overall, we enjoyed the park and would return, although it is not our favorite park in this area.
Date of Stay: May, 2013
We came for a fun family weekend. We had a great evening Friday night with the hay ride, marshmallow roast and other various kid activities. Unfortunately, it rained the majority of the weekend which limited our activities the rest of the time. We did attend tie-dye shirt session and a dance party on Saturday night which our kids really enjoyed. The majority of the activities were geared for children 3-10 years old. The pool was nice as was the water slide. The playground was certainly adequate with a large sandbox nearby. The roads were difficult to maneuver with difficult turns for a larger rig like ours (40 ft) even though we had a "big rig" site. These sites are also on a small hill which is a moderate distance from the playground and all the activities. We ended up driving to activities because it was too hard for young children to ride their bikes on the gravel roads up that hill. Overall, a nice park with very friendly staff and great kiddie activities.
Date of Stay: October, 2012
We stayed here for a 5-day weekend- it is a nice wooded campground in the middle of a large state park. It has a rustic feel with lots of leaves and trees vs a polished, manicured campground. It was quiet with lots of shade. Each site had a large sized fire ring. The sites were gravel and reasonably level. We had a full hook-up site - there is only 30 Amp power - but that did not prove any difficulty since it was fall and not excessively hot. There are frequent bathhouses, though we did not really use. There was a playground nearby for children which got a lot of use. The Wi-Fi was out of order (and seems to permanently be that way) but we got strong enough Verizon cell signal to make do. We saw lots of rangers patrolling the entire park (always very friendly), and the front gate was always staffed- we had no safety concerns. Overall, this a very nice campground- very typical of a COE or national park campground. We'd definitely stay here again.
Date of Stay: August, 2012
We camped here for the first time in our 40 ft 5th wheel with two small children for a week. We found it to be a nice, clean and quiet campground. Despite this being a large campground with hundreds of sites, we did not feel cramped or over-populated with people. All the fellow campers we encountered were well-mannered and considerate. People seemed to maintain their sites well and kept things clean. Staff was frequently seen picking up trash or cleaning. The restrooms and bathhouses were fabulously clean. This was perfect for showering after a morning at the beach and minimizing the sand brought into our camper. Our site was level and easy to set up. All sites include cable TV (with a good channel selection) and Wi-Fi. The Wi-Fi signal was rather weak at our site during peak times, but we were on the outer edge of the campground, away from the office. The lack of golf carts (other than those for annual leases) was great for families like ours with small children who wish to ride their bikes. There are both indoor and outdoor pools (plus kiddie pool) and a lazy river which our whole family enjoyed. All were very clean and well-maintained. The laundry facility had plenty of washers and driers, though still took only coins. The store onsite seemed to stock a good variety of camping essentials and grocery items. Overall, we found this a wonderful, family-focused campground and certainly plan to return.
Date of Stay: June, 2012
Overall, this is a nice quiet campground. Few amenities (average pool with nice wadding area for children, older playground equipment, very small store) but nice place to stay if you are in the area. Convenient to Fort Benning: about 20 minutes. As others have mentioned, a train does pass near campground twice daily, but not an issue in our area. Gravel roads with good concrete patio pad. Site was fairly level and pull-through. Good Wi-Fi signal. Restaurants and shopping nearby in town of Columbus. We'd stay here again if we were in the area, but would not seek out as a vacation destination.
Date of Stay: October, 2011
We spent a long weekend here in our 1st visit in our 40 ft 5th wheel. It was a busy weekend because of the fall leaves, but there were 4 or 5 employees working hard to keep the check-in process smooth. We had a full hook-up pull through site with a very level concrete pad. Almost all sites looked to be very level with a good amount of space between them. There was a fire ring at each site with a built-in cooking grate. It was a kid friendly park with a nice playground, bouncing pillow, 2 pools (1 indoor with jacuzzi, 1 outdoor with water slide), and nice quiet interior roads that were very popular for bike riding. There was a small burger grill right near the main office which made a great hot breakfast. Only negative small the Wi-fi- which while a very reasonable $1/day, it was so slow as to be intolerable. Our cell phones worked fine on an extended network, but some carriers might have poor signal strength in this location. Overall, we enjoyed this campground very much and will likely return.
Date of Stay: June, 2011
We stayed here as part of longer trip. We found a large pull-through space with full hook-ups. There was very little shade. This area of Alabama suffered a tornado about two months ago. You could tell the campground had sustained heavy damage and was working on repairs/construction. The office space was pleasant. The washer/dryer area and Wi-Fi station were destroyed. This is a small campground, mostly a mobile home park, with less than 10 spaces for overnight RVs. Definitely call for reservations before you stop. I think this a nice place for an overnight, but the current lack of amenities really limit how long you'd want to stay. If these are important, we'd recommend calling first to check on the status of repairs.
Date of Stay: June, 2011
We spent one night here as part of a longer trip out West. We were very impressed with the scenery and river front view. It was a gorgeous place! We had electric and water only, but there was a dump station near the front. None of the spaces were pull-through and some were a little hard to fit a big rig into, but the COE website lists the size of each site if you book online. There were bike trails and several playgrounds: it was ideal for families and pets. The rangers made several patrols during the evening so we felt very safe. Overall, we would give this campground a high recommendation for a scenic, back-to-nature COE place, especially great for families.
Date of Stay: June, 2011
We stayed here as part of a trip out west. We selected this campground for its proximity off I-40. It was pretty easy to access from the road and reasonably quiet given the interstate's proximity. We had a full hook-up, pull-through site. It wasn't level, but easy to correct. It was gravel with a small concrete pad and picnic table. The cable TV had a very good selection of channels, and Wi-Fi was excellent! While there weren't really any other amenities (such as pool, fenced dog walk or playground), overall we found this campground very satisfactory for an overnight stay and would us it again for that purpose.
Date of Stay: June, 2011
We stayed here overnight as part of a trip out west. We were escorted to a full hook-up, pull-through site that easily accommodated our 38' rig. The sites had a large nice concrete pad with additional pad for picnic table (which was one of the nice commercial, coated metal ones). There were small trees at each site and decent size grass patch. There was free Wi-Fi but it restricted the mb you could use/download. There was a very nice playground with fenced dog park nearby. The pool was a decent size, although the attached spa was closed. The laundry and bathroom facilities were spotlessly clean. The small gift/ souvenir store attached to the office had a good selection if NM merchandise. Overall, we were very impressed with this park and would stay here again: either overnight or for a few days.
Date of Stay: June, 2011
We spent a couple nights here as part of trip out west. We had a private site near the back of the campground that accommodated our 36 ft 5th wheel. All the sites are basically dirt with some stones. There are a few small trees but none that offer shade- it is a very natural campground, typical of the Santa Fe area. We had full hook-ups, though the water pressure was rather low. The cable signal was very strong, although the channel selection was rather odd and limited. The Wi-Fi signal worked well around the office, playground and pool but did not at our site. The amenities included a pool, playground, small theater that showed a nightly movie, enclosed small dog walk and hiking trail (we did not try the trail). We did use the laundry room which was completely functional. There is a small gift/souvenir shop as part of the main office with minimal grocery and RV supply items. The campground provided a nice, detailed map of Santa Fe with restaurant suggestions. Overall, we found the dirt roads and dust a negative (which may be the case at all area campgrounds) but would stay there again.
Date of Stay: June, 2011
We stayed here overnight for first time as part of a trip out West. We arrived on a Sunday so the office was closed, but all our paperwork was nicely labeled and ready for us. We had a large pull-through site which easily accommodated our 38 ft rig with a separate parking spot for the tow vehicle. We had a full hook-up site with a nice large concrete patio and picnic table. The rest of the site was dirt and gravel with just a small patch of grass. The whole area was very dusty but this may just be the nature of Amarillo. The cable TV signal was pretty good, just not a ton of channels. The Wi-Fi was kind of spotty, which may have been due to strong winds. There was a nice playground area, tennis courts, basketball court and horseshoe pits near the entrance. There were also two fenced dog runs with gravel and dirt. The central area of the campground features a small fishing pond with grass and small boardwalk area. It was nice to walk around in the evening when it finally cooled down. Our biggest disappointment was the swimming pool. It was indoor (fine) but surrounded by moldy, water-logged outdoor carpet. The whole pool area smelled terrible! There were two, what-appeared-to-be electronic, barbecue smokers inside the pool area that were full of grease and smelled horrendous as well. The whole pool experience was nasty! Within the same building, the showers and laundry area were very clean and well-kept. Not sure what happened with the pool, but it needs serious attention. Overall, the campground wasn't bad for an overnight stay, but we wouldn't want to spend days vacationing here.
Date of Stay: June, 2011
We stayed here for our 1st visit as an overnight stay, part of a longer trip out West. We were very pleased pull-thru site that easily accommodated our 38 ft rig (all sites appeared to be pull-thru actually). All sites were full concrete pad with full hook-ups (including double sewer) and all roads were paved. The sites were spacious with considerable effort to maintain trees for shade. There was a sparkling clean pool, kiddie water fountain, hot tub and playground right off the main office. There was also a very large covered area with grills available for large groups or families. We used the commercial dryers for bathing suits & towels without difficulty. The very few cons of this park were: no picnic tables at each site, no enclosed dog park or designated dog walk area and no visible street signs. Overall, this was an excellent park which we'd highly recommend.
Date of Stay: June, 2011
We spent our 1st visit here as an overnight as part of a trip father out West. We had a pull-through site with good shade. The sites could use a little more gravel but came with standard wooden picnic table and charcoal grill. The pool was fabulous: very clean and refreshing in the 90+ degree heat. There was a fenced playground area next to the pool with nice equipment for kids. There was fenced dog run area with gravel at one of the campground: not huge but nice to let your dog run free for a bit. The office had a small store, decent selection of board games, a pool table and a small ice cream shop. The WiFi was excellent but our cable TV reception was terrible. We couldn't watch any of the stations. There is a moderate amount road noise from the interstate, but it is a convenient location off the interstate. And it was so hot during our stay that the AC unit blocked out any noise from the road. Overall, it was a nice smaller place that was very nice for an overnight stay.
Date of Stay: June, 2011
We stayed here for 1st time en route father West. We had a nice shade site with wooden decking for patio and standard wood picnic table. The full hook-ups were nice with good cable TV and WiFi access. We used the newer model commercial dryers which were easily accessible. The pool was on the smallest side and slightly older. The playground equipment was ancient and rather sparse. They offered a barbecue dinner for additional charge with live free music: that was a fun treat. There definitely was road noise from the interstate, but not audible inside our camper. And it was a good trade-off for easy access off I-65. In general, it seemed to be an older crowd of campers but overall nice. We would definitely stay overnight here again.

Where am I? HomeWhat Can I Do To Stop?
Nasal based snoring can be broken up into two main categories, "small or collapsing nostrils" and "nasal stuffiness".
Small or Collapsing Nostrils
Small or collapsing nostrils can prevent you from successfully breathing through your nose. This encourages mouth breathing, and it is the air hitting the back of the throat that causes the snoring noise. By using simple nasal dilators you can easily remedy this problem. Nozovent is a plastic device that inserts into the nostrils and prevents them from collapsing. Similarly, Breathe Right Nasal Strips are positioned on the outside of the nostrils to open the nasal airways and prevent them from collapsing during inspiration.
Nasal Stuffiness
Nasal stuffiness is another common reason for mouth breathing, as we tend to breathe with our mouth open to compensate for not being able to breathe through the nose. It is essential that you find out what is causing the nasal stuffiness and treat it. Nasal and catarrhal congestion can be reduced by using our Rhynil which is safe for long term use.
You may also like to try steam inhalation. This is a tried and tested remedy and is very well worth a try. Alternatively, if your allergy persists you may find antihistamines can be very useful. Ask your GP for advice.
Allergic Rhinitis is a common cause of snoring. This allergic inflammation of the nose can cause the partial obstruction that gives rise to snoring sounds. Dust and the dung of the house dust mite can cause nasal congestion similar to the symptoms displayed by those individuals who smoke. The allergy related conditions of asthma and eczema are also associated with snoring problems.
Allergy to feather pillows and pet hair are a common cause of severe snoring. If you have feather bedding you may well find that by changing to synthetic fibre filled bedding you can eliminate the snoring overnight. Similarly you may be allergic to pet hair and your snoring may be worse if your pet has been in your bedroom or sitting on your bed. Substances such as perfumes, cosmetics, fabric softeners, air fresheners and insect sprays can all cause allergy type symptoms.
Physical Abnormalities
Your nasal problem could also be caused by physical abnormalities such as polyps. Polyps are a collective of mass tissue resembling a bunch of grapes. Their presence essentially blocks the airway. If you believe that you may suffer from polyps you should contact your local GP who will be happy to give your nasal airway a full examination.
This page is part of the 90 Day Snore-No-More Plan. You may also like to consider the following causes :
|Are you overweight?
|Do you smoke & want to stop?
|Alcohol & Sedatives
|Will cause excessive muscle relaxation.
|Nasal Based Snoring
|Can you breathe clearly through your nose?
|Mouth Breather
|Commonly associated with nasal stuffiness.
|Tongue Base Snorer
|A common cause.
|Sleeping Position
|Do you sleep on your back?
|Often transient but could persist.
|Can result in failure to thrive.
|The Menopause
|Consider your hormones.
|Sleep Apnoea
|Loud snoring. Excessive daytime sleepiness?

Buying toilet paper isn't anyone's favorite task…there's something slightly embarrassing about leaving the grocery store with all those rolls under your arm. But picking the right toilet paper is important—and if you'd rather avoid clogging up the toilet paper aisle while you check labels for recycled content and bleaching information, Greenpeace has an application for you.
For iPhone users Greenpeace's Recycled Tissue and Toilet Paper Guide—now available as an app—makes shopping for paper products easier.
The iPhone Application ranks 18 paper towel and toilet paper companies and 16 tissue and paper napkin companies. To qualify as "highly recommended," paper products must contain 100 percent recycled content, (at least 50 percent from post-consumer recycled paper) and be bleached without chlorine compounds. Seventh Generation, Natural Value, 365 Everyday Value, Earth Friendly and Green Forest top Greenpeace's list.
Seventh Generation bath tissue made Greenpeace's list of highly recommended paper products. Photo Courtesy Seventh Generation.
The free application is available for the iPhone, iPod touch and T-Mobile's Android phone. If you don't have a phone that supports apps, you can download a free PDF and print it out the old-fashioned way: on recycled paper.

Roger Field, Stuart
Letter: Voters should research U.N. Agenda 21 carefully before going to the polls
This concerns Maggy Hurchalla's guest column, "New town proposal remains dangerous," in the Feb. 25 edition of the Stuart News, in which she expresses strong opposition to the proposed Harmony development in Hobe Sound.
First, let me say it is unlikely that even if the project were to be approved construction would not commence until the current housing market improves markedly. The used home pipeline is still clogged with hundreds of vacant and foreclosed-upon houses, which will continue to suppress home values for some time to come. It would not make much economic sense to build until that pipeline is flowing again. But, the problem neither starts nor ends there.
The underlying issue is one of private property rights versus government's continuing drive to take those rights away from their rightful owners. It is an issue that is at the core of the collectivist movement in America the aim of which is complete government control of our lives. It also is a core issue in the United Nations' Agenda 21 and its goal of one world government.
To encourage efforts toward that end, the U.N.-backed creation of the International Council of Local Environmental Initiatives, which advises local governments on actions they can take to bring about control over the people. Central planning as envisioned in our own Martin County Comprehensive Growth Management Plan is a major part of that effort.
Central planners and supporters of U.N. Agenda 21 make their efforts sound appealing to the general public and always in the "best interests" of that public.
They have built up an impressive glossary of terms for use any time they take a stand on something that threatens private property rights, terms like "consensus," "affordable housing," "friends of," "protect," "preserve," "quality of life," "traffic calming," "public/private partnerships," "common good" and, king of them all, "sustainable development."
I would urge readers to do research into U.N. Agenda 21 and keep their findings in mind when they go to the polls in the upcoming elections and whenever land development proposals come before the Martin County Commission.

Grant, who has started Fire's last three MLS fixtures, was once again named in the home side's XI – the versatile youngster seizing the chance to open his goalscoring account in the 22nd minute to put Fire in front.
Mike Magee then made it 2-0 in a match that started nearly two hours late due to thunderstorms in the Bridgeview area of Illinois.
Pittsburgh pulled a goal back shortly before the break but, after the thunder and lightning returned, the match was ended in the 49th minute with Fire awarded the victory. They'll host Columbus Crew in the fifth round next week.

tap al-Awlaki's phone, judicial review would have been required. But killing him was totally up to the president.
As the A.C.L.U.'s deputy legal director stated, "this is a program under which American citizens far from any battlefield can be executed by their own government without judicial process, and on the basis of standards and evidence that are kept secret not just from the public, but from the courts."
To be sure, this was not a case like the for the first time; let us assume too that al-Awlaki was involved in operationally planning attacks in the United States — as government officials and the journalists to whom they've shown pieces of documents assert, though for which no evidence has been brought before a court, despite ample opportunity to do so. Granting these points, we still might ask how al-Awlaki became such a dangerous character.
There's much that is still unknown about his life and activities, but this account by New York Times' national security correspondent Scott Shane and co-author Souad Mekhennet from a year ago suggests the strong possibility that it was the excesses of "the war on terror" that led al-Awlaki to become a virulent proponent of violent jihad.
"As the American authorities rounded up Muslim men after 9/11, he had grown furious.
"After raids in March 2002 on Muslim institutions and community leaders in Virginia, Mr. Awlaki led a chorus of outrage, noting that some of the targets were widely viewed as moderates.
"'So this is not now a war on terrorism, we need to all be clear about this, this is a war on Muslims!' Mr. Awlaki declared, his voice shaking with anger. 'Not only is it happening worldwide, but it's happening right here in America that is claiming to be fighting this war for the sake of freedom.'"
In 2003, al-Awlaki was giving lectures in London urging his young followers never to believe a non-Muslim. In 2004, he moved to Yemen. Shane and Mekhennet explain what happened next:
"In mid-2006, after he intervened in a tribal dispute, Mr. Awlaki was imprisoned for 18 months by the Yemeni authorities. By his later account on his blog, he was in solitary confinement nearly the entire time and used it to study the Koran, to read literature (he enjoyed Dickens but disliked Shakespeare) and eventually, when it was permitted, to study Islamic scholarship.
"Notably, he was enraptured by the works of Sayyid Qutb, an Egyptian whose time in the United States helped make him the father of the modern anti-Western jihadist movement in Islam.
"'Because of the flowing style of Sayyid I would read between 100 and 150 pages a day,' Mr. Awlaki wrote. 'I would be so immersed with the author I would feel Sayyid was with me in my cell speaking to me directly.'
"Two F.B.I. agents questioned him in the Yemeni prison, and Mr. Awlaki blamed the United States for his prolonged incarceration. He was right; John D. Negroponte, then the director of national intelligence, told Yemeni officials that the United States did not object to his detention, according to American and Yemeni sources.
"But by the end of 2007, American officials, some of whom were disturbed at the imprisonment without charges of a United States citizen, signaled that they no longer insisted on Mr. Awlaki's incarceration, and he was released.
"'He was different after that — harder,' said a Yemeni man who knows Mr. Awlaki well."
here.) One can only imagine the mental health consequences of nearly 18 months of solitary confinement.
The specific allegations that U.S. officials make about al-Awlaki — again, based on evidence never presented to a court — involve connections to the Fort Hood shooter, Nidal Malik Hasan; the failed "underwear" bomber, Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab; the failed Times Square bomber, Faisal Shahzad; and the cargo planes bomb plot. For some of these, al-Awlaki's involvement may have been no more than providing inspiration, but in any event these were all after his 18-month imprisonment.
Obviously one is entitled to protect innocent civilians from unjustified attacks coming even from someone who has been provoked into a murderous rage, but one has to wonder about the sort of protection being provided by the "war on terror." Given the number of people who have been tortured or imprisoned without charge, it seems likely that the "war on terror" is creating terrorist leaders faster than they are being killed.
And these policies are not just those of the former Bush administration. The ACLU recently reported that
"Torture and extraordinary rendition are no longer officially condoned. But most other policies — indefinite detention, targeted killing, trial by military commissions, warrantless surveillance, and racial profiling — remain core elements of our national security strategy today."
torture still seems to be contracted out.
And then we're surprised that there's still terrorism.

Café Sangin
Final Exit: Afghanistan War Diary
It tastes so good, "it seems like contraband," said Stephens, his hair slicked wet from a water bottle shampoo. "I drink seven cups of coffee a day at home and never think twice about it. To have a cup of coffee in the basement in the last days of FOB Sabit Qadam, that's a cup of coffee you will remember."
Nel was up next, since he outranks me in coffee addict status. He even brought a glass French press in a lens case on a previous trip. When I finally got my first sip of the roasted Italian brew, it was unanimous – best damn cup of coffee any of us could remember. And I happen to be a Kona coffee farm heiress, to use the term loosely.
Capt. Howard let me hang onto my Afghanistan mug. Aside from being an outstanding war zone souvenir, a memory of my last coffee in Sangin, it also makes a good toothpaste spit cup.
When we flew over to Nolay, conditions at the gated base within a base where the Marine security force assistance advisor team was living were even more Spartan. At this location we had cots in tents instead of beds, MREs instead of trays of S.O.S. and other chemically-heated mess hall slop. And no power to boil coffee water.
I was rooting through a box in the mess tent, hunting for instant coffee powder I forgot to pack, when a Marine came to my rescue. Across the gravel lot at the back of an idling MRAP, I found salvation. A dusty Keurig coffee machine plugged into an outlet on the vehicle, with an Irish coffee "K-cup" pod waiting to perk me up.
"It's the little things out here," I told the Marine.
"Yes, indeed," he agreed.

Very pleased with this purchase. I had been looking for a wireless mouse for a while and this one just seemed perfect for my VAIO laptop. Works great, easy to set up (less than 3 minutes), sleek looking. Definitely worth the buy.
fits hand very nicely, comfortable to use, quick response from buttons and roller. nicely matches laptop with very small usb connector that does not stick out like others
This is a great wireless mouse that is super precise compared to my old logitech wireless mouse. As a student of the University of Texas at San Antonio, it fits nicely into my VAIO backpack and reliable for those between class breaks and for pc games. The adapter is so small and very unnoticeable which is great cause it is not bulky. I just sorta wished it came with a matching carry pouch, but its no big deal.


text: The Doraemon wiki last edited by Mento on 11/12/14 10:42AM View full history OverviewDoraemon, based on the manga and anime of the same name, is a sci-fi adventure game where a robotic cat is sent back in time by its young master to help improve the fortunes of his master's distant ancestors. Doraemon has various futuristic gadgets at his disposal, but they're often used irresponsibly by Nobita, the boy Doraemon was sent back to assist.In the game, Doraemon is trying to rescue his human friends. He travels across three distinct worlds to track down those who kidnapped them. Each world was created by a separate designer and contains a different type of gameplay: The first is a Zelda-like top-down action-adventure game where Doraemon must deduce the correct path to the boss by travelling a large overworld and uncovering hidden tunnels and doors to smaller areas containing useful items. The second is a side- and vertical-scrolling shoot 'em up where Doraemon must navigate through the enemy's stronghold. The third and final stage is an aquatic side-scrolling platformer.Though hugely popular in Japan at the time, due largely to the license, Doraemon was never localized into English. There is very little text in the game, however, so it is quite playable for non-Japanese speakers.

The Met Office issued a severe weather warning for parts of the central belt and Highlands amid concern that snow will fall on higher ground and sleet will also accumulate.
Forecasters said ice could form on untreated surfaces. Although cities such as Glasgow and Edinburgh are expected to escape the worst of the weather, other areas will be hit by show showers.
The Met Office said: "An active frontal trough will move eastwards across Scotland during the early hours of Thursday morning. This will be accompanied by a band of heavy, squally showers.
"As much colder air quickly cuts in behind the front, some snow is likely on high ground, with the risk of ice quickly forming as surfaces cool off following the clearance."
Floods and gale-force winds are expected to return over the weekend, with winds of up to 70mph forecast for Sunday, and a severe weather warning in place for the whole of the UK.

is rarer), fewer case reports are needed to perceive causality (Auriche and Loupi, 1993). For rare4 serious adverse events, such as toxic epidermal necrolysis, coincidental medical product-event associations have been found to be so unlikely that they merit little concern in spontaneous reporting, with more than three reports seen to represent a signal necessitating further study (Begaud et al., 1994). Further, it has been suggested that the combination of a temporal relationship between medical product and adverse event, positive dechallenge, and rechallenge can make individual reports conclusive as to product-event association (Temple et al., 1979).
Notwithstanding, there is no definitive number of cases for generating a signal of safety concern. It is dependent on the characteristics of the individual adverse event itself, including such factors as clinical manifestations and severity, potential for significant morbidity (reversible and irreversible) or mortality, potential populations at risk, and the overall risk to public health.
In judging any association to be causal, biological plausibility and reasonable strength of association are useful (Rawlins, 1995). However, given the outlined limitations of spontaneous reports, achieving certain proof of causality through postmarketing surveillance is unusual (Auriche and Loupi, 1993). Attaining a prominent degree of suspicion is much more likely, and, given that it may be deemed an ample basis for regulatory decisions on drugs (Auriche and Loupi, 1993), it is an ample basis for regulatory decisions on dietary supplement ingredients.
Regarding factors that can be useful in assessing the strength of association between any medical product and a reported adverse event, international consensus produced the following list (CIOMS, 1990):
The chronology of administration of agent, including beginning and ending of treatment and adverse event onset,
The course of the adverse event when the suspected agent stopped (dechallenge) or continued,
The etiologic roles of agents and diseases in regard to an adverse event,
Response to readministration (rechallenge) of the agent, and
Laboratory test results.
The United States has no regulatory definition that explicitly delineates events as common, infrequent, or rare based on their frequency of occurrence; the Council of International Organizations of Medical Sciences (CIOMS) III/V working groups have recommended the following standard categories of frequency: common (frequent): > 1/100 and < 1/10 (> 1 and < 10 percent); uncommon (infrequent): > 1/1,000 and < 1/100 (> 0.1 percent and < 1 percent); rare: > 1/10,000 and < 1/,1000 (> 0.01 and < 0.1 percent) (CIOMS, 1999).
