We have stayed at a few KOA's and some were good and some not. I don't think you can group them all together. It really depends on the mangement, like any other campground. I don't really find them over priced.....I have been finding a lot of campgrounds are raising their rates.

If you get a chance...stop at the KOA in Carlsbad, New Mexico. Nice layout, friendly owners, and a deliver-it-to-your site chuckwagon.

If you're just going to be there overnight, why not just find a Wal-Mart? If you buy a Rand McNally Road Atlas at Wal-Mart, it has all of the Wal-Mart lots that invite you to stay overnite for nothing. And just think, the wife get's to shop. What a deal.
When it come's to KOA, some are good and some are bad, but they all suck.
Just my opinion.

I'm just getting started as an RVer too. I've stayed at 2 different KOAs and both seemed consistently predictable - clean restrooms & clean showers. The sites seem small but have been adequate to my needs. The staff at both sites were friendly and helpful to this newbie. I stayed at a National Forest campground a week ago... no services other than a restroom and some water down the street. I was spoiled on my KOA experiences... I wanted a shorter walk to the toilet, a shower, and some staff assistance when needed. The NF campground was very shady, private, large site, and quiet, almost spooky. I hardly ever saw anyone walking around - at least anyone as friendly as you do at a KOA. So far, I'm satisfied with KOA until I see/experience something negative.

KOAs are just like any other chain of campgrounds--some are good, some are mediocre, and some are bad. I have noticed, however, many KOAs that are improving their facilities, cleaning up, and so forth. Your best best has been, and continues to be, checking this site for the experience of others.

We've stayed at a couple of KOA's and I think what's been said in previous posts is generally true--some are good, some are not. We found a nice one in Hot Springs SD--management helped us a lot when we stayed there recently since we had some propane problems. The CG itself was very nice as well--but what most folks will say about KOA's is that the sites are really close together (KOA=Keep On Adding).
I've been a little disappointed in Woodall's and Good Sam park reccomendations, and have found that the very BEST site for reviews is this one! Again, because the reviews are written from a camper/rver perspective. I always check this site out first before making any reservation decisions.

Like most, I find KOA's to be generally over-priced. All that we have stayed at, have either been right alongside a busy highway or next to a train track so always very noisy at night. The nicest one we have stayed at was in Colorado Springs, CO. Had hayrides, bicycle rentals and a very nice store. As a rule, the stores at KOA's offer a greater variety than most campgrounds. We usually look for something else in the area, staying at KOA only as a last resort. Even with the discount card, they are higher than most campgrounds. If someone would come up with a nice chain of parks that you could stay at with full hook-ups for around $20, they would probably make a fortune.

We stayed at 21 different KOA's on a cross country trip last fall. They are very much a mixed bag. Some were great and I'd go back there again. Some were terrible. The Mt Rushmore one mentioned was very nice as was the one outside of the Mall of America in Woodbury. So was the one north of Carlsbad Caverns. I would NOT recommend the one between Bryce and Zion NP. Lousy sites, facilities and unfriendly staff. I'd check a Woodall's or this site for specific campground reviews. We have the 15% discount which helps with the price. KOA's seem to have become just places to give you access to nearby attractions and less of a place for a real camping experience IMO.

Could you elaborate a little more on the KOA "between Bryce & Zion"? Is that the one in Glendale? There are only 4 KOA's in the area and we will be in that area next month.
Thanks - Gene

Thanks to everyone who created this site and to those who spend their time reviewing and passing information along to those of us who really expect to have a great camping experience everytime we go.
We had a "night and day" experience with KOA's in Michigan....Petoskey was incredible but Newberry (UP) was poor. The costs were the same..we won't be going back to Newberry again.
This site will help us pick the best....my thanks to you all!

We agree that there's some good and some bad KOA's (Just like other camping sites). We have stayed at the Mt. Rushmore KOA and found that for cable TV, the daily $10 extra was a bit much for the few channels offered. Since, we installed Satilite! Having just retrned from the Cape Hatteras KOA, we weren't impressed with the non-existant WiFi (HotSpotzz) support and low voltage. The 50amp units get power first before it's trickled down to the 30amp sites. However, both CG's where extremely hospitable. I'd check here first before I frequented any CG, as Woodalls and Trailer Life reviews aren't always accurate or forthright. I know of one CG operator that was presured to purchase an item is they wished a higher evaluation.

Yep, it was the Glendale one. Skip it. Lousy sites and unavailable staff. When we pulled in there was nobody around and when she did show up it was like we were inconveniencing her.

Like private campgrounds, KOA's can be good and bad - but to paint the whole system with a brush is silly. We've noticed a trend over past few years with KOA to "filter" the bad places out of the system - and that overall KOA's are pretty good places to camp.

My wife likes to make reservations and we have relied on KOA in the past. However, I have told her that we will no longer reserve at a KOA without an initial inspection. We were tent campers at first and used the KOAs every 3 days or so to have showers. Now the KOA system has become very unreliable - and still prices above the alternatives - so I prefer that we seek any alterative first.
In fact, some of the campgrounds that we have enjoyed were probably KOAs in the past because they had the traditional A-frame KOA building.
I just started on this review forum and intend to submit and refer to the rankings before making any plans for a campground.

INGLEWOOD, Calif. (June 15, 2012)—By virtue of the first tiebreaker, Giovanni Oldano of Weston, Florida won the $3,000 Show Me The Money –Presented by Golden Nugget Las Vegas – contest Friday night at Betfair Hollywood Park.
The free challenge, which began May 6 with 1,738 players, required a participant to choose one horse each racing day – in six designated races – at least 10 minutes prior to the opening race. The selected horse had to finish first, second or third for a player to continue.
Both Oldano and Mark Niemerow of Thousand Oaks selected I Sense Your Luck in Friday's third race.
When the 3-year-old Street Sense filly finished fourth as the 3-2 favorite in the $12,500 claimer, Oldano earned the winner-take-all prize because he had more winners – 13 – during the contest. Niemerow finished the contest, which spanned 24 racing days, with nine.
In addition to the cash, Oldano won a two-night VIP stay at the Golden Nugget Las Vegas.

Though obviously disappointed by the result, Leandro Mora, assistant trainer to Doug O'Neill, was relieved when Goldencents returned to the barn in good shape after finishing 17th in Saturday's Kentucky Derby and said the 3-year-old son of Into Mischief would be pointed to the Preakness Stakes May 18.
"He came back A-OK," said Mora from Louisville. "With all the rain and mud, let's just say the track was not on our side. (Goldencents) never had to face conditions like that in California."
"I thought (jockey) Kevin (Krigger) did a great job protecting him. He let Palace Malice go and was in a good position, but when he saw it was hopeless, he eased him up the last part of the race. The track condition made a big difference. The riders saw that speed was doing well earlier in the card and they were all rushing to get position. That's why the fractions were so fast."
Mora said that Goldencents would be shipped to Pimlico Tuesday. O'Neill is scheduled to return to California Monday, followed by Mora Tuesday or Wednesday.
Scarlet Strike, winner of the Grade III Providencia Stakes April 6, tops the field for Saturday's $100,000 Senorita Stakes for 3-year-old fillies. The Grade III is run at one mile on the Betfair Hollywood Park turf.
Trained by red-hot Jerry Hollendorfer, Scarlet Strike was third in the Grade I Hollywood Starlet during the 2012 Autumn meet and bounced back from her Providencia victory with four solid drills. Leading rider Rafael Bejarano will be aboard.
Jubilant Girl, who is trained by John Sadler, is expected to be Scarlet Strike's main opponent. The daughter of Henrythenavigator has won three of four and most recently captured the Runway Stakes April 13 at Santa Anita.
The Saturday program will also include the $70,000-added Came Home Stakes for 3-year-olds at seven furlongs. Confirmed starters include Broadway Empire, a 16-length winner in his Turf Paradise debut and the returning Scherer Magic, victorious in the Grade III Hollywood Juvenile Championship during the 2012 Spring/Summer meet.
Trainer Robertino Diodoro, who returns from a suspension Tuesday, said he wasn't surprised at the margin of Broadway Empire's maiden victory. "This was one of the few times when I expected a horse to win like that," revealed Diodoro. "He won even more impressively than I thought he would. Before he ran, he had a few issues at the gate and he's a big horse anyway, so we gelded him. After that, he settled down." Victor Espinoza will ride the son of Empire Maker
Sadler is enthusiastic about Scherer Magic off the bench. "He ran on the Breeders' Cup undercard and came back with a small chip in his right knee," advised Sadler. "He's been training really well on this track."
Also set for the Came Home is Treasury Bill (trainer Ron Ellis, jockey Joe Talamo), runner-up in the Grade II San Vicente Stakes Feb. 17 at Santa Anita.
Trainer Walther Solis has reason to be optimistic about freshman sire Time to Get Even.
Solis, who owns 25 per cent of the stallion, trained two of his offspring for first-out victories this meeting. Time for a Hug, a colt, won the first juvenile race of the Spring/Summer season April 26 and Time for Angie, a filly, was an easy winner May 3.
"He only covered a few mares last year," said Solis. "He has a lot more this year. The two that won look very similar and they both look like their dad."
With a triple Saturday, Bob Baffert moved into a tie with fellow Hall of Famer Jerry Hollendorfer atop the Betfair Hollywood Park trainer standings with six victories. Baffert won with first time starter Donelle, Midnight Crooner, and Liaison in the $150,250, Grade II Mervyn LeRoy Handicap.
Heading into Sunday's card, Mike Puype, Eric Kruljac and Bruce Headley are tied for second with three wins. Headley's victories have come from just five starters.
Rafael Bejarano, who was out of town to ride in the Kentucky Derby and Oaks, returns to find his eight-winner lead whittled down to three by Joe Talamo, who tripled Saturday. Bejarano, who scored once on the Derby undercard, is now just five away from 3,000 victories. Next in the standings are Tyler Baze (7) and Edwin Maldonado (6).
All winning riders Saturday had more than one victory. Talamo (3), Baze (2), Maldonado (2), Martin Garcia (2) and Alonzo Quinonez (2) accounted for every race on the card.
CLOSING STRIDES— Trainer Paul Aguirre advised that Tiz a Minister, third in the recent Snow Chief Stakes, popped an abscess but has recovered quickly and went to the track Sunday morning. The 3-year-old is being pointed to the $100,000, Grade III Affirmed Handicap June 2…….Mike Marlow, assistant to Bob Baffert, said that Liaison and Guilty Trip, the 1-3 finishers in the Mervyn LeRoy, came out of the race fine. Kettle Corn and Blueskiesnrainbows, second and fourth, respectively, also returned well, according to John Sadler and Jerry Hollendorfer*………Trainer *Peter Miller reported that Comma To the Top, winner of the Cool Frenchy Stakes, emerged from the effort in great shape and is on course for the $100,000, Grade III Los Angeles Handicap May 27. Miller also remarked that Harry Henson Stakes winner Summer Exclusive is nominated for the Came Home Stakes and will either run there or a race on the Preakness undercard……..Dhaamer, winner of the Round Table and Sunset Handicaps at Betfair Hollywood Park in 2012, worked six furlongs in 1:15 1/5 May 3 at Santa Anita. The Irish bred will attempt to repeat in the Round Table crown May 12 for Mike Mitchell. Also on the tab for Mitchell was Obviously, third in the Breeders' Cup Mile, who worked a half-mile in :48 3/5……..Rafael Bejarano, Julien Leparoux and Garrett Gomez, who rode in the Kentucky Derby, are back at Betfair Hollywood Park for Sunday's card. Agent Brad Pegram said that Mike Smith, who won the Kentucky Oaks aboard longshot Princess of Sylmar, returns Thursday.

Washington, December 16. The annual report of JosephNimmo, Jr., Chief of the Bureau of Statistics, on the foreign commerce of the United States, is completed. In regaii*-! to our export trade, Mr. Nimnio says:S. " Five leading articles of export during the year ended June 30, iSSO, were as follows: Bread and breadstuifs, §28,S,036,8a5; cotton, unmanufactured, §212,5&5,905s, provisions, §127,- 043,242; mineral oils, §3(>,2lJ>,625; tobacco and manufactures thereof, §18,442-273. The United States, he ssjjjfs,. already surpasses every other country in the magnitude of its exports, both breadstuffs and provisions, and it is maintained that thea market, for'American bread- stuffs and provisions in Europe can be still further extended. The United Kingdom of Great Britain aiid Ireland stand first among importing countries with respect to the value of imports,both in breadstuffs and provisions." Tables are presented showing that of the folio w- ing commodities imported into Great Britain and Ireland the percentage imported from the United States wasias follows: Wheat, 68 per cent.--Indian corn, 90 per cent.; live animals, 44 per cent.; beef, salted, 99 per cent.; beef, fresh or slightly salted, 93 per cent.; butter, 12 percent.; cheese,,64!. per cent; bacon, 84 per cent.?hams, 98 per cent.; lard, 96 per cent.; mqat, preserved otherwise than salted, 72 per cent.; pork, salttfd, 87 per cent. The report says: "During the last ten years the competition of American breadstuffs and provisions in British markets has greatly reduced the price of those commodities, and «onsequently the profits of producing them in the United Kingdom. Apprehensions have been awakened as to the ultimate effect of this competition uponthe agricultural interests of the latter country. The question is, in a politico-economic sense, a very large one, since it embraces not only the interests of tho British farmers, but also the rate of wages paid to farm-laborers, the value of lands devoted to agricultural purposes, and the revenue derived therefrom by the British land-owners. The growth of the exportation of breadstuffs from the United States has also led to serious apprehensions in competing grain-producing countries in which inferior methods of agriculture prevail and facilities for handling aud transporting grain and existing methods of commerce are less advanced than in this country." I-tegarding the maritime interest of the United States, Mr. Nimmo sas's: " The decadence of that branch of the American merchant marine which is employed in the foreign commerce of the country continues to engage public attention. This decadence is indicated by the following facts: The building of ships and barks employed by our foreign commerce fell from an annual average of 233 during the ten years from 1851 to 1S60 to an annual aver-- nge of fifty-six during the ten years from 1871 to 1880. There were only twenty-three ships and barks built during the year ended June 30,1880. The iron steamship is now the controlling vehicle of commerce on the ocean. The tonnage of iron vessels built in this country the last five years amounted to only 101,- 823 tons, almost entirely for bur coastwise or home trade in which no foreign competition is allowed under the provisions of our Navigation laws, whereas the iron ship-building of Great Britain during the last five years reported amounted to 1,800,193 tons. It is stated that the iron steamers designed for transatlantic trade now in course of construction in the ship yards of Great Britain would, if placed in line, extend about one mile. The total tonnage of the United States employed in the foreign trade fell from 2,379,396 tons in 1860 to 1,314,402 tons during the year ending June 30,1880. During the year ending June 30» 1880, the total value of the commodities transported in American and foreign vessels (imports and exports) amounted to the sum of §1,589,472,093, of which the value transported in American vessels amounted only to §280,- 005,497. The value transported in foreign vessels amounted to §1,309,466,496. A marked decline in the proportion of commodities carried in American vessels has taken place during the past year, the falling off having been from 23 per cent, in 1879 to 17.C per cent, in 1880." After stating in detail the causes of the decline in that branch of American merchant marine employed in foreign commerce, the report continues: "The fact that capital finds abundant and more profitable employment in the home industries and enterprises of this country of vast and widely varied resources than in the employment of vessels uponthe ocean has undoubtedly had a strong influence towards diverting attention from ship-building and ship-owning enterprises. This is the main, underlying cause of our maritime de- clensiori?in so far as relates to foreign commerce." The branch of American merchant marine which is employed in the internal and coasting commerce of the United States, it is shown, also exhibits a decline, notwithstanding the fact that under our Navigation laws no foreign vessel is allowed to engage in this trade. The tonnage thus employed fell from 3,293,439 tons in 1874 to 2,637,6S5 tons in 1880. The total tonnage built on the seaboard, embracing the Atlantic Gulf and the Pacific coasts, including both tonnage built for coastwise and for foreign trade, but chiefly for the coastwise, fell from 1,013,010 tons during the five years from 1866 to 1870, to only 669,362 tons during the five years from 1876 to 18S0. The American tonnage built on the great lakes, almost exclusively for internal trade, fell from 214,333 tons during the five years from 1866 to 1870, to 74,499 tons during the five years from 1876 to 1880. The tonnage employed in the domestic trade of the United States (the ship ton being 100 cubic feet of space) on June 30,1880, amounted to 2,637,6S5 tons. This embraces vessels employed both in the carriage of passengers and freight. But the capacity of railroad cars ot all descriptions employed on the railroads of the United States amounted, according to the latest and most reliable information, to about 7,100,000 similar tons of 100 cubic feet of space. This railroad- car tonnage, however, the report says, actually affords means of transport for a much larger amount of freight tonnage than is indicated by the foregoing comparison. After further remarks regarding the excess of commodities by rail over the commerce by water, Mr. Nimmo continues: "The efficiency of the railroads as highways of commerce has, however, increased much more rapidly than their mileage. This increased efficiency in railroad transportation has been mainly the result of a substitution of steel for iron rails, and of improvements in the equipment and methods of managing traffic." The gross earnings of the railroads of the United States for the years mentioned are shown to be as follows: In 1851, §39,456,358; in 1861, §130,000,000; in 1871, §403,329,208; in 1879, §529,012,999. This increase in gross earnings has taken place notwithstanding the constant and very large decrease in the average rates of transportation. Tho number of freight cars employed on the railroads in tho State of New York increased from 16,525 in 1867 to 47,- 808 in 1879, and the number of freight-cars employed on all tho railroads in the United States increased from 384,003 in 1876 to 480,190 in 1879. ThO tonnage of the New York State canals fell from 5,859,080 tons in 3809 to 5,302,372 tons in 1879, but the tonnage of the two railroads competing with the canal (tbe New York Central and the New York, Lake Erie & Western Railroads) increased from 0,594,094 tons in 1869 to 17,228,394 tons in 1879. These facts, it is maintained, servo to illus- rato the most striking commercial develop-- nientof. thea?e—namely: the iact that the vehicle of commerce on wheels has, in our domestic trade, to a great extent superseded the vehicle of commerce on the water. " The same facts," it is held, "also indicate the cause of the decline of shipping employed on internal water UnPS and in the coastwise trade of the United States." In conclusion the report says: "Aside from the economic and commercial considerations, however, the American merchant qriarine, both with respect to that branch which is employed in foreign commerce and to that branch which is employed in the internal commerce of the country, has claims to public consideration which cannot possibly be presented by means of statistics of tonnage built and employed. The subject has not, however, received that thorough investigation which its importance demands. It is a matter of interest to advert to the fact that on the 29th of January, 1880, the French Government adopted the somewhat extraordinary scheme of subventions for the promotion of the French merchant- marine. Bounties were provided for ships built in France, and subsidies granted in favor of all vessels built, at the rate of 1*4 francs on every ton for each 1,000 miles traveled in voyages to and from that country. These measures are evidently in a high degree protective and enabling, both as to the shipping and commercial Interests of France. Aside from the appropriations for improving or providing highways of commerce, public sentiment in the United States has always regarded with disfavor direct grants from the Treasury in aid of particular industrial or commercial interests, except for the purpose of taking the initiative in industries promising large public benefits in dovelopment, or for the purpose of promoting enterprises directly conducive to the Nation's safety or conservative of the National honor. To What extent the merchant marine of the United States presents claims of this character is a question to be determined by the legislative branch of the Government. The situation of the American merchant marine is peculiar, so far as it relates to the possibility of adopting discriminating and protective measures which in their practical operation shall prove to be beneficial. Insofar as relates to industries other than the building of ships and their employment in our commerce with foreign countries, foreign competition may be regulated or absolutely shut out through the adjustment of duties upon imports. This discretionary power is ample, and may always bo exercised effectively. But the case is entirely different with the respective branch of our merchant marine which is engagedin foreign commerce. The Government of the United States has not exclusive power of determining the proportion of American shipping which shall be employed in our trade with any particular foreign country. ,It is highly important, however, that the Government of the United States should accord as great advantages to American ships, when engaged in commerce with foreign nations, as are accorded by the Governments of those nations to their own ships when engaged in commeree with the United States. "The question of restoring the American merchant marine is undoubtedly a difficult one. Nevertheless, the apparent difficulties in the case should be an incentive to a thorough investigation of the Whole subject, in all its bearings, and to the adoption of ail practicable measures which may tend toward securing the desired result. The abundance and superiority of tbe natural agencies and the force in this country essential to success in shipbuilding and navigation afford a ground for the belief that prosperity will at some future time dawn upon the maritime interest of the United States. Reference is here had especially to our vast resources of coal and iron, and the extent to which inventive genius has, in the manufacture of iron and iu the construction of ships, substituted mechanical power for human labor. The approximation of the rate of interest on money in the United States to the rates which prevail in the countries of Europe and the rapid accumulation of surplus capital in this country are also circumstances which tend strongly toward turning capital to investment in ship property." The Terrible Fire Disaster in Buffalo. Buffalo, December 17. A most disastrous conflagration occurred here this evening, the sad and deplorable feature of which is that it was attended by the greatest loss of lif# known upon a similar occasion in very many years. The building in which the fire broke out was a five story brick structure, 300 feet in depth and eighty feet wide, owned hy George W. Tifl't, and occupied by M. H. Birge & Sons, manufacturers of wall paper. About ten minutes before six o'clock one of the men employed in the third story reported to the foreman, Thomas Henry, who was on the -floor below, that one of the printing machines was on fire. He speedily made his way up-stairs, and saw the press at the rear of the room enveloped in flames, which had, by this* time, spread to the adjacent woodwork, while the place was filled with dense smoke. As a temperature of ninety degrees is maintained continually throughout the factory, to assist the diying process, and as this had rendered everything as dry astin- der, Mr. Henry realized that the spread of the flames would be terribly rapid, and it was folly to think4hat anything could be done to ayert it. He turned and ordered the employes to ■fly for their lives, immediately warning as best he could those -who were in the fourth and fifth stories, they being principally boys. In the meantime an alarm had been sounded, to which a portion of the department responded, and a second and general alarm brought the remainder. The scene now presented was one that would touch the stoutest heart. The building was wrapped in seething flames. Employes jumped from the highest windows, while many boys in the two upper stories, who had been unsuccessful in their efforts to escape, or became too bewildered to follow the example of their companions, appeared at the windows with White and terrified faces, and frantically shouted for help. But their torture was of brief "duration, for, almost simultaneously with their cry for aid, they" sank back, overcome by suffocation from the smoke, and, within twenty minutes from the time the alarm was sounded, the walls crumbled and fell with a crash. One small boy whose name could not be learned, courageously jumped from the fifth story, and, catching the telegraph wires, which then gave way, slid down one of them, and escaped with badly cut hands. John Malone, aged fifteen years, jumped from the fifth story, struck the sidewalk, and was almost instantly killed. John Fields, employed as overseer among the boys, jumped from the fourth story and was picked up dead. John T. Berry jumped from one of the upper stories and sustained a fracture of the spine and of both arms. He will probably die. With the falling of the walls the firemen were required to give their attention to the Union Malt House, an extensive brick structure, also owned by George W. Tifl't, and occupied by John B. Manning. • It was already in a fair way for destruction, and, though every effort was made, the best that could be done was in preventing the further spread of the fire. Wild rumors were afloat in regard to the loss of life, and anxious parents crowded around with blanched countenances aud weeping bit*: terly, while they tremblingly inquired for tneir missing boys. When the excitement had subsided'somewhat, an effort was made to get some knowlege of the wounded. The list, as far as can be learned, in addition to those before mentioned, is as follows: John Griffin, jumped from the fourth story; arm broken and injured internally. Moses Malone, jumped fiom the fifth story; leg broken. Patrick O'Brien, arm broken and badly burned about tlie head and back. Edward McCormick, jumped from the fifth storv; cut about the head. Moses Malone, jumped from the fifth story; leg and arm tinctured. Michael O'Brien, leg fractured. Stephen H-ackbtt, Martin MeGec, Peter Schwan- der, John- and James Stout, Jay Voltz, Thomas McCue, Charles Chapman andTbomas Quinlau, all boys, are among those who are reported missing, and, it is thought, perished in the flames. Without a doubtt here were many more who met the same fate, and it is believed that twenty boys if not more were roasted alive in the fire. The employes numbered between 150 and 160. James ltyan and John Kennedy jumped out of a fifth-story window, but sustained uo material injury. Chicago Women Speculators'—An Inside Scene at a '-'ladies'" Bnctet-Shop. The .manager's commission is., one- eighth of a cent. Eive dollars will buy 500 bushels of wheat. The margin is exhausted when the price falls a cent on the bushel below the purchase price. If live dollars more are not advanced it undergoes the process known as "freezing out," which means that the investor loses her money. Eternal vigilance is the price of success. Every eye is glued to the board. The figures come within a few seconds of each other sometimes, and margins are to be looked after, and the profitable^ t^me to' "close out" watched for, so that strict attention, the kind that taxes every fibre of the body and every faculty of the mind, is needed. The operators talk and gabble with each other in a womanish way. They don't wait for introductions, as women who have never had any business experience do; but are unconventionably sociable. They ask each other what they are doing and what they have made, and talk over the prospects in a most familiar way. They are fond of airing their knowledge. " Eeeping up margins," "freezingout," "scalping," "long deals," "lulls," "active markets," are terms that drop from their lips constantly. When there is a "lull" in the market they talk a good deal, but always about luck and the markets. The horizon of their minds has narrowed to the columns of figures on the board. All of them are intelligent, some of them intellectual; yet it is as impossible for them to go beyond the business in hand in conversation as it would be to walk the rainbow. Some bring lace work, zephyr atrocities, tatting and other womanish employment for the hands, and like the old woman at her husband's funeral who thought she would "draw a thread while the folks gathered," they take a stitch when the market is slow. Eractions bother them terribly. They ask each other in great consternation sometimes which is the most, three- eighths or one-half. The lack of mathematical discipline in the female head is very apparent. At first they all say that the whole thing is like a great blur to them, with the fractions * jumping hither and yon like sandflies. They get into the true inwardness of it in a little while, particularly after they have made a deal or two and lost. Sometimes men come in and watch this petticoated menagerie with great interest. It is funny to see them smile under their moustaches, as though it was all play, and the women to be pitied for thinking it serious and actual. Men always look at anything women undertake in that spirit, if it is something before considered man's especial field. In making deals women are women. They don't usually base their bets on the causes which are supposed to influence the market so much as on blind impulse, a sort of faith that they must be lucky. Some never know a political movement nor read a newspaper, yet deliberately express the most positive opinions on what the quotations will be with the unreasoning assurance of the sex and singularly enough they are often correct in their conclusions. If there is anything more arbitrary than the market it is women. Some profess to go by" impression;" some jump into deals in a haphazard way, and some consult clairvoyants. When they first enter they have made up their minds to be one thing, a bull or a bear, and stick to it through all fluctuation. Gradually they lay aside that idea and are bulls one day and bears the next. Most of them drop -into the "scalping" business, which is literally closing out at small profit, making many deals at a small x>i*ofit, instead of waiting f or large ones. One young lady took to scalping with great success for several days, making §8 and $10 a day. Then the disposition to venture left her and she sat day after day without investing a cent. There are few croakers. They are usually " old operators," who still dabble themselves, but have a smile of pity for everybody else who takes a. deal They are always ominously silent when the others are chipper and hopeful. Wheat is the commodity they mostly take to,- December wheat. Vast fortunes flit by on pork and lard, oats and corn, but the pillars of this shop pin their faith to wheat. They sigh when they see the figures which might have led on to profit flash in the other columns, exactly as one would sigh to have seen " the white mists of an angel's garment go by," and yet not have seen the angel's face. They talk over the pork column a good deal, but are full of warnings imparted to them by male friends to be careful of pork, not to "handle it," etc.; that one man controls the pork market; that it is " cash pork" and liable to be "left on one's hands." One woman heard them all lamenting around her the other day that they hadn't sold pork, it had fallen so magnificently. Finally she said, " Tou don't get me to dabble in pork no matter what the prospects are. I would have no luck in it. I'll tell you why. A fewyears ago iny husband was determined to speculate in hogs. He talked about hogs constantly. 1 said to him, " William, 3rou let the hogs alone. Hogs is not your business.' Without my knowledge he went out into Iowa and put §15,000 in hows, and every dollar of it laid down and died. Cholera! He couldn't sleep at night and laid rolling and groaning night after night, and at last, when 1 asked him for the fiftieth time what ailed him, he said, • Bogs,' and confessed, 'No luck in pork for me.'" Another Avoman, who had a long deal in oats, said she dreamed she saw chickens dusting in oats, and she knew then, even in her sleep, that her investment was a sunken ship. It seems that dreams of this character are not uncommon with the women of the bucket-shop. One declares that the figures of the quotations have become so burned into her brain that the people she meets in dreamland are all figures fantastically dressed, and that it is often quite frightful to see living fractions hopping about, and two and three bowing and .smirking at each other. She declares that sleep has become hideous to her because of the sort of stuff her dreams are made of. A land inhabited entirely by numerals she pronounces frightful. Another who has weak lungs says that whenever she has an oppression on her chest at night she imagines a barrel of j pork is resting on her lungs or that she J is being smothered in a bin of wheat. All unite in pronouncing a bucket-shop; life to be terribly mind-wearing and' nerve-racking. One woman spent a week there. She earned her board and declared she never earned it at such a- cost of mind and body before. She didn't get her nerves toned down to the point of being able to sleep until midnight.

She looked just like that kind-of a woman when she came into the sanctum and all the seniors became instinctively very busy and so absorbed in their work that they did not see her, which left the youngest man on the staff an easy prey, for he looked at the visitor with a little natural politeness, and was even soft enough i- offer her a. chair. "You are the editor?" she said, in a deep, bass voice. "He tried to say "Yes" so that she could hear him, while his colleagues in the sanctum couldn't, but it was a failure, for the woman gave him dead away in a minute. "You are!" she shouted. "Then listen to me; look at me; what ami?" The foolish youngest man look at her timidly and ventured to say, in a feeble voice, that she looked to be about forty- sev "Nursling," she shrieked, "had you the soulful eyes of a freeman you could see shining in-my brow the rising light of a brighter day." " Could I?" asked the youngest man, timidly. " Yes, you could I," the woman said, in tones of unmeasurable scorn. Now hear me, you have a—butl cannot bring myself to use the hateful expression in the style of masculine possession; are you anybody's husband?" The youngest man blushed bitterly, and said that he wasn't as yet. but he had some hopes-;— '•And you expect your—that is, you expect the woman whose husband you will be to support you?" The* youngest man blushed more keenly than before and tremblingly admitted that he had some expectations— that—that—that the only daughter of his proposed father-in-law, if he might put it that way "Yah!" snarled the woman; "now let me tell you, the day of woman's emancipation is at hand.

The youngest manmiserably said that a tailor on Sefferson Street made his. " H'm," said the woman, somewhat disconcerted. "Well, who washes'em, then?" she added, triumphantly. " A Chinaman just west of Eifth Street," the youngest man said, with a hopeful light in his eyes. Thewoman glaredathim and groaned under her breath, but«she came at him again with: " Proud worm, who cooks your victuals?" The youngest man said truly that he didn't know the name of the cook at his restaurant, but he was a man about forty years old, and round as a barrel with whiskers like the stuffing ofa sofa. The woman looked as though she was going to strike him. " Well," she said, as one who was leading aforeiornhope, "who makes up your bed and takes care of your room?" The youngest man replied with an air of truth and frankness that he roomed with a railroad conductor, and an ex- Pullman sleeping-car porter took care of their room. She paused when she reached the door, and turned upon him with the face of a drowning man who is only five feet away from a life buoy. "Miserable dependent," she cried, " who sews on your buttons?" The youngest man on the staff* rose to his feet with a proud, happy look on-, his face. -; " Haven't a sewed button on a single clothes," he cried, triumphantly; "patents, every one of 'em fastened on like copper rivets and nothing but studs and collar buttons on my shirts. Haven't _ had a button sewed on for three years. Patent buttons last for years after the garments have gone to decay." And the woman fled down the winding passage and the labyrinthine stairs with a hollow groan, while the other members of the staff, breaking through their heroic reserve, clustered around the youngest man and congratulated him uponthe emancipation of His sex.— Burlington Hawk-Eye. ,— • » m — —Cup-Puddings for the Old and Young.—1.

It had been two years since we had been to Maine so we decided it was time to spend a week in Maine. Our plan was to have several hikes in Acadia National Park during our four day stay in Bar Harbor. We love the views from Champlain and along the ridge so we headed out to Route 3 and began our hike on the Beachcroft Trail to Huguenot Head. One advantage of hiking in Acadia is you don?t have to go very far for an outstanding view.
As we neared the summit, we were both startled by a turkey running by. Isn?t it unusual to see a turkey on the summit?
There?s nothing like the views from a summit in Acadia.
After a short break, we headed to The Bowl, one of the prettiest ponds in the area.
We summited Gorham not too long after leaving The Bowl then headed towards Otter Cliffs.
Continuing along the Short Path, we decided to climb up the Beehive, since we hadn?t done that in several years and it is always fun and a bit of a challenging trail.
It wasn?t long before we were skirting The Bowl, took the final climb up Champlain to the summit and back to the car. We took our time as we were in no hurry. Total mileage for the hike was 10.5 miles. It felt great to be back hiking in Acadia!
Here?s the slidehshow:
Hope you enjoy,
Donna and Mike

Sign up for a Crutchfield account Overview Details Customer Reviews Q&A Articles & Videos Our take on the JL Audio Stealthbox® by Kristen Schaub Vehicle-specific enclosures with subs? Say what? Instead of the usual sub in a box, the manufacturer creates a molded enclosure that fits perfectly into a convenient spot in your specific vehicle, housing a high-quality sub. Some enclosures even include a built-in amp, for the ultimate in stealth bass. The advantages? You don't lose much space (if any), your sub is perfectly matched to its enclosure, and your enclosure has a factory look that won't tell potential thieves you have an awesome sound system. Doesn't get better than that. The JL Audio Stealthbox® custom-fit subwoofer delivers incredible bass in a package that takes up minimal space and blends in with your vehicle's interior. JL Audio designs Stealthboxes to fit in specific vehicles, then loads them with appropriate subwoofers for optimal performance. Pair the system with an appropriate amp and wiring for stellar, concealed bass. Perfect sound to go with the perfect fit JL Audio puts months of research and design into each Stealthbox® custom-fit subwoofer to ensure not only that it fits, but that it sounds better than any other custom enclosed system. First, JL Audio determines the ideal shape and mounting location for each enclosure, so that it looks like an original part of the vehicle it's designed for. Next, they mount each high-performance subwoofer so it delivers amazing firepower from within its unique enclosure, without sacrificing clarity or musical depth. The fiberglass enclosure offers superior rigidity while allowing more interior volume, so the sub can turn out louder, deeper bass. JL Audio craftsmen then laminate, grind, join, and finish each Stealthbox® by hand. The end result: full-bodied, distortion-free bass from an impressively stealthy enclosure. Enjoy enhanced, custom-fit sound This Stealthbox® enclosure fits 2005-up Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs. It installs in the passenger side rear corner of the cargo area. This Stealthbox® includes one 4-ohm 10" W1v2 subwoofer from JL Audio. A black steel-mesh grille protects the sub. Please check with us before purchasing by using the vehicle selector on our site, or calling a Sales Advisor at 1-888-955-6000 to verify fit information. JL Audio has rated the difficulty of this Stealthbox® installation as moderate or high. Crutchfield recommends using a car audio professional to install this enclosure, unless you have extensive experience installing car audio gear.

That's because we have our own in-house Product Research team — they open the box, verify contents, check the owner's manual, and record dimensions, features and specs. We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices. Features Overview: JL Audio's Stealthbox subwoofer systems are designed to hide away in a specific vehicle. Please consult "Outfit My Car" to confirm compatibility with your vehicle. Construction: Stealthboxes are hand-crafted from fiberglass and/or Advanced Molded Composite (AMC) materials. Fiberglass delivers a level of enclosure rigidity and dimensional stability not possible with other enclosure materials, allowing wall thickness to be reduced compared to a typical wood enclosure. This gives you more interior box volume for a given external volume. Fiberglass and AMC materials are very strong and can be molded into very complex shapes; giving JL Audio the ability to design your Stealthbox to fit perfectly into tight spots and minimize intrusion into your vehicle's useful space. Each Stealthbox is laminated, ground, joined, and finished by hand in the USA. Proprietary techniques and materials developed by JL Audio through years of fiberglass manufacturing experience ensure consistent quality and performance. Woofer: One 10" JL Audio W1v2.4 subwoofer is loaded in this sealed enclosure and wired as a 4Ω load at the enclosure's spring-clip speaker terminals. The JL Audio W1v2 subwoofers feature an injection-molded, metallic-finish polypropylene cone woofer with an embossed metallic JL Audio logo with a butyl rubber surround for added durability, woofer excursion and bass response. Surround Stress Relief: By creating a radius feature on the edge of the cone, stress is relieved from the surround material at maximum forward excursion, resulting in longer life and more consistent surround behavior Interlocking Cone & Dust Cap: The W1v2's utilize a dust cap that is not just glued, but also interlocks with features molded into the cone body for a tight snap-fit. This creates a more rigid cone assembly and a more reliable dust cap attachment. Dynamic Motor Analysis (DMA): DMA is JL Audio's proprietary method aimed at improving dynamic motor behavior. As a result of DMA optimization, W1v2 motors remain linear in motor force over a very long range of excursion, and also maintain a highly stable fixed magnetic field in the gap over a wide power range. The result is vastly reduced distortion, faithfully reproduced transients, and tight, clean, articulate bass. Floating Cone Attachment Method (FCAM): JL Audio's patented FCAM technology is an innovative method of bonding the surround/cone assembly to the voice coil/spider assembly. This assembly technique ensures proper surround geometry in the assembled speaker for better excursion control and dynamic voice coil alignment. Vented Reinforcement Collar: The Vented Reinforcement Collar (VRC) is a composite structure that addresses two issues related to reliability. Stress Relief: By reinforcing the critical junction between the cone, voice coil and spider, the VRC greatly reduces failures due to glue breakdown or material weakness. It does this by greatly increasing adhesive contact area and providing stress relief to the spider material at excursion extremes Air Flow: The VRC also features slots that facilitate air flow directly onto the voice coil windings. This reduces thermal compression effects and enhances reliability Insert Molded Suspension/Coil/Terminal Sub-Assembly: The W1v2 features a unique spider, coil and terminal subassembly which is assembled prior to installation in the speaker frame for optimum alignment and glue-joint integrity. This type of assembly ensures precise lead wire length, lead wire entry and exit angles; and coil to spider perpendicularity. Elevated Frame Cooling System: The elevated frame design of the W1v2 delivers cool air through slots directly above the top-plate to the voice coil of the speaker. This not only enhances power handling, but also sound quality by minimizing dynamic parameter shifts and power compression.

This JL Stealth box was installed into a 2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited. Installation was a breeze!!! Took about 3 hours total and this included installing an aftermarket amp to drive the sub. Pros: Sound, ease of installation. Cons: Color of carpet doesn't exactly match the interior. Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 good as expected Written By idc, ny on Thursday, July 11, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) good quality. performs as expected from a small sealed sub. the only thing i didn't like was the carpet color. for the price & name brand, it should have matched closer to the interior tan color. overall, i'm happy with it. Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Great things do come in small packages Written By Mike D, Harrisburg, PA on Sunday, February 27, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I wasn't sure how I would feel going from a 12" JL to a 10" but I wanted to free up the cargo space in my 2006 GC Laredo. I have to say I am pleasantly surprised. This compact box has nice tight and clean lows. It's going to work well with the SQ system I'm putting together. The only issue I had was that the mounting hole on the box did not align with the sheet metal where I needed to add the mounting post. My hole was aligned with one of the two big holes in the sheet metal. I had to drill a new hole in the box about an inch and a half to the right. Luckily JL sends some sort of filler putty along with the box. I used that to fill the original hole. So far so good. Overall I am very happy, sounds and looks great. Glad I decided to spend the money. 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Great Sound in a small package Written By Louie, Chicago, IL on Thursday, May 13, 2010 I just bought a new 2010 Grand Cherokee Limited. The sound system is factory Navigation with Boston Acoustics speakers and amp. The sound is great, far better than the 2001 and 2004 Cherokee but it was missing that full rich bass that I love. I ordered the JL Audio Stealthbox with the 10 ' sub woofer. I also ordered the Rockford Fosgate punch 400.2 amp because of the size. The 400.1 would have been better but I didn't want to wait for it to be delivered. Either amp has the power that you need and is small enough to mount in the back panel behind the sub. The sound is amazing! I also bought the bass knob to adjust the bass boost for each type of music. I got exactly what I wanted, great sound and the least amount of space taken up in my new truck. I took it to a local store to get it installed. They suggested that I get a smaller amp like the Fosgate 400.1 so that he could install it behind the sub out of sight. My Crutchfield advisor recommended the 400.1 amp and the JL Audio Stealthbox. I couldn't be more happy with the finished product. 11 out of 12 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 1 question already asked Does this system hook up with the factory head unit? I have the Navigation and rear camera and I am not trying to lose it. [ Erica Apr 07, 2014 ] 1 answer You will want to contact an Advisor by phone (1-800-324-9695) or online chat to discuss compatibility with your factory system. They will be able to pull up your vehicle and see if this will integrate. If it does not, then they will also be able to discuss other options with you.

The analysis of electroacoustic music and aspects within electroacoustic works pose several challenges, not the least of which is that this music represents the greatest leap in music history. New material, treatment of material, and structures are found and created on a daily basis. In consequence, the experience offered to the listener has been equally revolutionised. Clearly, traditional approaches to analysis can be applied to a certain extent (descriptive, structural), but in most cases these approaches have had to be supplemented by sound-based tools as the traditional parameters of instrument, pitch, rhythm and so on are not always appropriate. Elements such as timbre and texture as well as use of space can be at least as important. With this in mind, new strategies for postscriptive scoring from formal spectral to informal reception-based notations have been developed, and continue to do so. Various approaches with borrowings from psychoacoustics, acoustics, reception theory and other fields have equally been introduced. Ironically, few large-scale systems have been devised to assist in analysing electroacoustic work. Schaeffer's early writings supplemented by Smalley's contributions in spectromorphology represent important exceptions.
