'It felt like old Roc-a-Fella, Bassline days,' Def Jam A&R rep Lenny Santiago tells MTV News.
By Rob Markman
Jay-Z recording Watch The Throne
Photo: Life + Times
It's finally here. On Monday, fans across the world can finally experience Jay-Z and Kanye West's Watch the Throne, the joint project that was first announced on August 27, 2010, via Yeezy's Twitter. Now, almost a year later, the highly anticipated album is available for purchase. Only a select few can say that they were along for the ride, and senior VP of A&R at Def Jam, Lenny Santiago, is one of those people.
Last month, MTV News secured 12 exclusive behind-the-scenes photos from the famed WTT recording sessions, which took place in New York City, Australia and Paris. Lenny S., who was present for much of the album's recording, breaks down the story behind two of the photos.
Check out the photos of Jay & Kanye recording Watch The Throne.
The first shows one-half of the Neptunes, Pharrell, seated in the middle of a makeshift studio, arms folded, taking it all in. That particular session reminded Lenny of the good old days at Roc-a-Fella, when he made his bones in A&R. "What was real dope about that picture and just about that day period — it felt like old Roc-a-Fella, Bassline days," he said, referencing the label's old recording home, Bassline Studios.
Jay co-founded the label where he released his debut album, Reasonable Doubt, in 1996 and put out Kanye's first LP, The College Dropout, seven years later. The label was also home to recording artists such as Cam'ron, Beanie Sigel, Freeway and Memphis Bleek, just to name a few. But in 2005, after Hov spilt with co-founders Damon Dash and Kareem "Biggs" Burke, the rap powerhouse lost its luster. These days, Hov is pushing his new Roc Nation label and West heads G.O.O.D. Music, but this particular session felt like a throwback.
"That day alone felt real ill," Santiago said. "I remember Jay and 'Ye both just making note of that."
The second pic depicts Jay-Z hovering over a mixing board, leaning in with his arms folded. The board's green and red lights are lit and the casual observer may be led to believe that Jay has decided to add studio engineering to his ever-expanding rRead also...

MTV Movie Awards' top three moments
The 2012 MTV Movie Awards were light on the memorable moments, but we managed to gather three bits worthy of the water cooler on Monday morning.
Elizabeth Banks gets carried off by Joe Manganiello (Photo: Kevork Djansezian/WireImage.com)
'Magic Mike' star heats things up with a surprise appearance
Matthew McConaughey and Channing Tatum, stars of the upcoming stripper flick "Magic Mike," presented the MTV Movie Award for "Best Transformation." The Golden Popcorn went to Elizabeth Banks for her unrecognizable turn in "The Hunger Games."
But that was quickly forgotten when "True Blood" hunk Joe Manganiello, who plays a provocatively named exotic dancer in the flick, walked out from behind stage dressed as a shirtless fireman. The risqué move got big laughs from the crowd and Banks clearly enjoyed the attention. Manganiello then carried her off the stage in his arms. Winning has its privileges.
[Related: Christian Bale's emotional MTV Awards moment]
Kristen Stewart accepts the Best Kiss award alone (Photo: Kevin Winter/Getty Images)
Will somebody please kiss Kristen Stewart?
The star of "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1" won the MTV Movie Award for Best Kiss along with Robert Pattinson. Alas, Rob wasn't there to accept. So, there was Ms. Stewart up on stage with nobody to smooch in celebration.
She called out for "her Huntsman" -- "Snow White" costar Chris Hemsworth -- but he didn't answer the call. She then called for Charlize Theron, who plays the evil queen, but she didn't appear either. She even tried seeking a little help from Taylor Lautner. In the end, she turned around and pretended to make out with herself.
Stewart later returned to the stage, this time with Lautner in tow, to accept the evening's final award for Best Movie.

Robert Reich: Without bold alternatives, Americans desperate for big solutions are attracted to bold crackpot ideas like Herman Cain's "9-9-9" proposal, which would raise taxes on the poor and cut them for the rich.
The Rise of the Regressive Right and the Reawakening of America
Robert Reich: Eric Cantor, Paul Ryan, Rick Perry, Michele Bachmann and the other tribunes of today's Republican right aren't really conservatives. Their goal isn't to conservative what we have. It's to take us backwards.
The Triumph of Dogma, and a Sad Goodbye to David Frum
Robert Reich: The American public doesn't want or need to hear "representatives" from the so-called right or left. It wants insight into what's best for America.
The Seven Biggest Economic Lies
Robert Reich: Here's a short effort to rebut the seven biggest whoppers now being told by those who want to take America backwards.
The Wall Street Occupiers and the Democratic Party
Robert Reich: Will the Wall Street Occupiers morph into a movement that has as much impact on the Democratic Party as the Tea Party has had on the GOP? Maybe. But there are reasons for doubting it.
Behind Europe's Debt Crisis Lurks Another Giant Bailout of Wall Street
Robert Reich: Republicans and Wall Street executives who continue to yell about Dodd-Frank overkill are dead wrong. The fact no one seems to know Morgan's exposure to European banks or derivatives – or that of most other giant Wall Street banks – shows Dodd-Frank didn't go nearly far enough.
How to Get Out of America's Jobs Depression
The Reverend Al Sharpton and various labor unions have announced a March for Jobs. But I'm afraid we'll need more than marches to get jobs back. Since the start of the Great Recession at the end of 2007, America's potential labor force – that is, working-age people who want jobs – has grown by over […]
The Moral Question
Robert Reich: The appropriation bill the House passed June 16 would deny benefits to more than 700,000 eligible low-income women and young children next year. What kind of country are we living in?
Why This Is Exactly the Time to Rebuild America's Infrastructure
Robert Reich: Anyone with half a brain will see this is the ideal time to borrow money from the rest of the world to put Americans to work rebuilding the nation's infrastructure. Problem is, too many in Washington have less than half a brain.
When Will Wall Street Call for More Federal Spending?
Robert Reich: We can get out of this recession but not via the Fed's "quantitative easing" alone. When consumers can't spend and businesses won't spend without additional consumers, government must be the spender of last resort.
The Republicans' Latest Ploy to Keep the Economy Lousy
Robert Reich: Whatever shred of doubt you may have harbored about the determination of congressional Republicans to keep the economy in the dumps through Election Day should now be gone.
Why the Most Important Issues May Be Off the Table in the 2012 Election
Robert Reich: By continuing to push and prod we give hope to countless Americans on the verge of giving up. We give back to them the courage of their own convictions, and thereby lay the groundwork for a future progressive agenda
Taxing the Rich, the Obama Way
Robert Reich: You can bet Republicans will continue to harp about the large portion of low-wage earners who pay no income taxes — without mentioning that they pay a higher portion of their incomes than anyone else in payroll and sales taxes.

Ninini Point, East Kauai
This wood and concrete lighthouse was first established in 1906. The current structure, however, was erected in 1933. The tower stands 86-feet high (116-feet including the fresnel lens) and was automated in 1953. The lighthouse stands south of Lihu'e on Ninini Point and overlooks the beautiful Nawiliwili Bay. There is no full-time lightkeeper at the tower but occasionally a maintenance volunteer will allow visitors climb to the top.
Take Highway 50 toward Lihu'e. Turn right on Rice Street (where Highway 50 becomes Highway 56). Approximately 1 1/2 miles down Rice Street, turn left. This road leads past the Kiele and Lagoons Golf Courses. Park near Ninini Beach. Follow the trail past the 13th hole of Lagoons Course, past the beach and to Ninini Point.

Stop looking back and regerting stuff Or thinking about stufF that happened ages ago.
You are 24 right? It is not too late,you have nothing to worry about like wife,children...etc. Restart, You have time to rebuild yourself and do better,take other courses you like,Start working and studying again,you are now just wasting time sitting,complaining and putting yourself down the way others did to you.
Just let that go and start from now making plans, visualize your goal,imagine that you are going to it And work to Really get to it.
We humans need someone to motivates us,doesn't matter if it's in a negative or possitive way,even If they called you loser,it is a way for you to move forward,they are pushing you forward to prove the opposite.
Yea,We feel weak when no one encouarges us or with us, things end up hard on us. but it is OK, you are not alone, your parents are waiting for you to be that person who they couldn't be. a successful man. you are alive so keep trying to acheive your goal,you are not going to lose anything.
Make at least your parents proud of having you in their lives.
And you are not a lazy loser, prove that, not to them or to anyone else but yourself, do you think that they are right? What others think about you doesn't matter,what you think of yourself does.

Things AV does well:
- match lines
- hands off approach to the locker room (lets the players sort it out themselves)
- builds a culture of the hockey team being a family
rewards grinders
favours players who make "safe" plays (think plays off the boards, chip n chase)
- can shelter players very well
- handles/rides his #1s very well
- can handle the big markets (MTL, VAN, NYR?)
- lines go through a blender until chemistry is set (Sedins-Burrows have been a line for 5 years where as Kesler gets new linemates every season)
Critiques for AV
doesn't make obvious adjustments until later, sometimes never at all (PP options)
plays some players far too much, Pyatt was a former AV pet
- not a great motivator
team doesn't give 100% every game or 60 minute efforts
- near the end the Canucks didn't play a 60 minute game until our last 2 playoff games. That's 2/50 games this season
- zero accountability for penalties taken
rookies need to be able to play in the d-zone
Things to expect:
safe plays will determine ice time
- troubling use of defensemen
M. Staal to be relied upon heavily, MDZ will either be benched or play lots
- zone deployment (top 6 getting heavy o-zone starts, 3rd/4th line taking all the defensive draws)
be prepared for bottom 6 players not to contribute on the scoresheet
- less blocked shots
- some players like Callahan to be used a lot. Dubinsky would've been an AV fav IMO
- some lines will be purely defensive
I think NYR will have a great season. AVs strength is getting a lot out of a weak skating group and relying on a Vezina goalie. If lines 1-4 win their matchups then you'll win, fix your bottom 6.
Ps. Do NOT sign Mason Raymond.
I see a lot of Torts in there. I really hope that there's a noticeable change in the way the team plays.

Pity about wifi
Hotel is good, staff excellent & pleasant, pity about wifi being slow to non existent.
At this stage hotels should be giving customers free fast wifi without a second thought.If you hav eit at home, why should you pay a lot for any upgrades away. No food available to residents after 5pm NYE, which seemed a bit unreasonable. It does have rooms available for people travelling with pets however, and location is handy. Rooms clean, and ok. Pool looked good, didn't use it. I'd possibly use it again but would need reassurance about wifi, it's almost as essential as running water really these days for people working or travelling.

Lovely 3 night break whilst visitng relatives in the area.
Used the great leisure facilities including the lovely pool and sauna, enjoyed the huge choice of breakfast and just had a lovely relaxing break. Didnt want to leave...... only thing we didnt like was the room was an adjoining room with another and we would ask for an alternative room next time.

peacefulplace2 blks from home of AAUnited StatesOhioAkron
About this listing
Towels, bed sheets, soap, and toilet paper
Central heating or a heater in the listing
The Space
We offer a private bedroom (comfortable king size futon bed) on the second floor of a well maintained century home. Guests may choose from either a large bathroom with a tub and bidet on the second floor, or a shower and a bidet in a 3/4 bathroom on the first floor.
Relax in our large, comfortably furnished living room or our peacefully serene screened in front porch. Better yet, sit on our backyard patio and enjoy being surrounded by ponds, waterfalls, fish and a peaceful contemplative garden.
Akron has a rich history. Our home is conveniently located near many of our community's cultural sites. We are one block from Dr. Bob's, the National Historic Home of Alcoholics Anonymous' co-founder, where the 12 Steps program was conceived and written. Stan Hywet Hall and Gardens, a magnificent historic house museum and country estate completed in 1915 by the founder of The Goodyear Tire and Rubber Co. is 5 minutes away. If you enjoy baseball, the Akron Aeros play downtown - another five-minute drive. While you're downtown, don't miss the Akron Art Museum. It is one of our best-kept secrets.
Akron is a unique urban oasis. Our Metropolitan Park System is seamlessly integrated across our city where it joins the Cuyahoga Valley National Park, the last national park created in the United States, and connects us with Cleveland's "Emerald Necklace", their metropolitan park system. Cleveland's many attractions (including the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame) are just 45 minutes away by Interstate or an hour + leisurely drive through the metropolitan and national park scenic way.
For football fans, the National Football Hall of Fame is only a 30-minute drive south. Canton is also the site of the "First Ladies Museum", as well as many other interesting historical and recreational opportunities.

depending on the guests - we have had people we shared food and drinks with and others who are very busy while here in akron and we see very little.
Clean, respectful of property
No smoking allowed.
Quiet courtesy important - although in our century old home noise is almost non-existent from room to room on the 2nd floor

About the Host, Judy
I'm Judy. My husband Paul and I are thoroughly enjoying our early retirements, me from publishing and he from business consulting.
I came to Akron from Madison, Wisconsin, 27 years ago to start a business, never intending to stay this long. Akron is a wonderful place to live and I am now one its most vocal advocates. Akron is a comfortable place to live. We may not have all the amenities of a big city, but we also do not have all their problems either. Akron is large enough to have plenty of fun and small enough to make getting there easy.
Paul and I love to travel and meet new people. Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco, Mexico is our favorite place to spend the winter months, but we may look elsewhere next year. I love Europe and wish we could spend more time there. Paul's travel is a little more eclectic taking him to remote and primitive places around the world. Two of our children live in Minneapolis and Tacoma, while the third is currently in Istanbul, Turkey and will be relocating to Shanghai, China this summer, so we have plenty of incentives to travel.
My interests are varied, but my favorite is cooking for and enjoying the company of good friends and strangers, (especially those from other countries and cultures) who soon become our friends as we welcome them into our home. I also volunteer and take classes to enrich my life and appease my many, eclectic interests as I attempt to become a better painter, perform yoga exercises more fluidly, and learn new dances, get my bicycle ready for summer cycling, and my golf clubs cleaned up so I can practice and actually get close to the green:) I love playing games - especially Mah Jong and I am taking horseback riding lessons which qis an enjoyable way to connect with nature and (along with dogs), another of our 4 legged treasures!
Paul is a water gardener, pond master and all around 'renaissance man' who can master almost anything. Our backyard paradise is his creation. He is a voracious reader, always probing deeply into humanistic and Annie actually purrs when you hold her and pet her :)Our home is a warm and comfortable respite for anyone visiting Akron. We look forward to the opportunity to meet you, to make new friends, and to help make your trip so pleasant you will want to return and send others to meet us too. Happy travels!!!

Slideshow: 10 Pains Au Chocolat We Love In Paris
Des Gateaux et du Pain
Our first pain au chocolat comes from Des Gateaux et du Pain, in the 15th arrondissement. This elegant bakery makes you want to speak in hushed tones. Everything is sleek and streamlined, and chef Claire Damon's baked goods are so artistically displayed you almost feel you shouldn't eat them. Almost. But these pastries have both substance and style. The pain au chocolat (€1.60) were beautifully done, with a deep reddish brown color, a nice high rise, and domed shape. Biting into them, the laminating—the alternating sheets of dough and butter that give croissants and pain au chocolat their characteristic layers—was beautiful, and they had a nice resistance, or chew.
Des Gâteaux et du Pain:63 Boulevard Pasteur 75015 Paris, France; 01 45 38 94 16; desgateauxetdupain
Interior of Des Gateaux et du Pain
The staff at the bakery is professional and helpful; while high end, they are welcoming and friendly.
Blé Sucré
At Blé Sucré on the Right Bank, chef Fabrice Le Bourdat works wonders with sweetened wheat. The outer layer of my pastry (€1.20) shattered and flaked all over my jacket, which in pain au chocolat is an excellent thing. The inside has the proper toothsomeness and there is a slight sweet/salty note to the dough. The butter really comes through—they use Montaigu butter from the French dairy region of Poitou-Charentes—without being greasy or oily. If you come here in the morning, you may want to wander through the Marché d'Aligre just around the corner, to bring home some fruits and veggies for a light lunch.
Blé Sucré:7 Rue Antoine Vollon 75012 Paris, France; 01 43 40 77 73;
Le Grenier à Pain
Le Grenier à Pain is a little bake shop with several locations in Paris. With its unfinished wooden floors and farm tools hanging on the wall, the location on rue Saint Charles in the 15th arrondissement looks like the bakery from your childhood (if you grew up in a small town in 1930s France.) The pain au chocolat (€1.20) has a nice rise and a deep color. It's wider than it is long and the upper layer bubbles with flakiness. Tuesdays and Fridays there is a market along this street, so be prepared for a bit of hustle and bustle if you visit before 2 p.m. on those days.
Le Grenier à Pain:134 Rue St Charles 75015; 01 45 77 50 78; www.legrenierapain.com
La Boulangerie par Véronique Mauclerc
Véronique Mauclerc is often heralded for being one of the few female boulangers (bread bakers) in Paris, and for having one of the few wood burning ovens left in the city. (Though it's only for breads; the viennoiseries, which is the category of breakfast pastries that croissants and pain au chocolat fall under, bake better in the electric oven.) Pastry chef Yohann Bonnet, who has been working with Chef Mauclerc for the last 3 years, explained that they make all their bread and viennoiserie with a natural starter. This gives them a deeper, more complex flavor and helps them keep better—though for pain au chocolat (€1.40) we are still talking in hours, not days.
La Boulangerie par Véronique Mauclerc:83 Rue Crimée 75019, Paris, France; 01 42 40 64 55;
Jean Millet
If you find yourself in need of a snack after a visit to the Eiffel Tour, head over to this bakery on the rue Cler. The pain au chocolat (€1.70) are a bit different from other versions, though not in a bad way. They have a lighter, bready, almost brioche-like texture to the crumb, and a subtle flavor.
Jean Millet:103 Rue St Dominique 75007, Paris; 01 45 51 49 80;
Miss Manon
Stop by Miss Manon in the Marais to try two unusual flavors: chocolate-banana and chocolate-raspberry (€1.80 each). Both are sticky on top, undoubtedly glazed with a syrup. The chocolate-banana smells like banana bread, and the sweetness of the banana brings out a saltiness in the chocolate. The chocolate-raspberry version has the chocolate to one side, raspberry to the other —we cut them in half lengthwise and stacked the halves to get a bit of both in each bite. These are a welcome change, though they're a little overkill for breakfast. They'd be better as a goûter (afternoon snack).
Miss Manon:87 Rue St Antoine 75004 Paris; 01 48 87 87 59
Head over to Béchu to try another pain au chocolat with a twist. In addition to the chocolate bars, the interior of their chocolate-orange croissant (€1.60) holds a drizzle of homemade orange marmalade and the top is crowned with a slice of candied orange zest. The croissant dough has a slight acidity, the requisite shatter to the top layers, and a slightly caramelized bottom. The classic pairing of orange and chocolate works well here, boosting this pastry into a special treat.
Béchu:118 avenue Victor Hugo 75116 Paris; 01 47 27 97 79
Exterior of Béchu
When asked what makes their pain au chocolat special, the manager of the bakery said, "We just make them with l'art et la manière, as they should be made."

A $295 Ralph Lauren T-Shirt is designed to be the sportscar of apparel, reports Ray A. Smith in The Wall Street Journal (8/20/15). "This is our Porsche 918, our ultimate shirt that is going to halo Polo Sport," says David Lauren, evp of global advertising, marketing and corporate communications for Ralph Lauren Corp. The PoloTech shirt, says David, is the first smart shirt from a "major luxury fashion brand," following those introduced by "big sports brands like Adidas or smaller, niche performance brands." The PoloTech is "embedded with sensors that read vital signs like breathing and heart rates, stress levels and calories burned."
The PoloTech is a collaboration "with OMsignal, a Montreal-based maker of wearable-technology products. The compression shirt made its debut last year at the US Open tennis tournament worn by several ball boys and during practice by player Marcos Giron but wasn't available to the public." The shirt "will go on sale August 27 at the company's one-year-old Polo flagship store on New York's Fifth Avenue, Ralph Lauren's website and a Ralph Lauren store at the US Open, which runs from Aug. 31 to Sept. 13." It features "silver fibers that track a range of vital statistics and stream them" to a free app "via a snap-on module."
Additional sensors are "knitted into a band across the chest" that "read biological and psychological input." The app "reacts and sets cardio, strength of agility workouts based on those data," and adjusts the intensity of the workout accordingly. The shirt is machine washable so long as the tracking module is removed first. David Lauren says the PoloTech shirt is just the first of more garments to come. "We are setting up divisions within Ralph Lauren to focus on developing all kinds of products across all of our brands," he says. The brand may line-extend into "ties, polo shirts and suits."


text: http://forums.opensuse.org – I was messing around couple linux distros and a desktop earlier today. When I booted from the Ubuntu disk, it seemed to take like 2-5 minutes on each screen. So was basically taking like 10 minutes before I even got to the disk's menu. When i booted the machine off of openSUSE 11.2 disk it booted nice and fast, then installed without a hitch. When i put the Ubuntu disk into my laptop it booted fast and fine there. I'm just curious if anyone has any ideas why that desktop would seem to disagree with a bootable Ubuntu disk like that. Those things are obviously designed to work with near anything. It's a standard IDE CD-ROM, 7600GT, IDE hard drive, all pretty standard stuff. (Distributions)

"A Christmas Story" House & MuseumRead MoreSince 1983, families have spent their holidays around the television, watching A Christmas Story and joining in the triumphs and failures of 9-year-old Ralphie as he struggles to secure a Red Ryder BB gun from Santa's bag. Although the cult-classic film showed Ralphie living in Indiana, the house in which the movie took place rests in Cleveland—and is now a museum. When MSNBC interviewed lifelong fan and A Christmas Story House & Museum owner Brian Jones, they profiled the story of how he found the house on eBay and jumped at the chance to own it. Today, he's turned it into a year-round place of pilgrimage for fans and the site of an occasionally-held convention for Ralphies. Jones's restoration has returned rooms to exactly how they were in the film, letting guests gaze at the tinsel-strewn tree with its star falling off and explore the bathroom where Ralphie's mouth was washed out with soap—a time-tested method for cavity prevention. Visitors can even attempt to hide like little Randy in the cabinet under the sink. After seeing the backyard that still houses the original shed, where Ralphie defended his family against Black Bart, fans head across the street to the A Christmas Story House & Museum. Here, original props such as the toys from the Higbee's department-store window, Randy's snowsuit, and Miss Shields's classroom chalkboard join other memorabilia and hundreds of behind-the-scenes photos. Before leaving, guests drop into the gift shop to pick up a leg lamp just like the one Ralphie's old man cherished so dearly.3159 W 11th St.Cleveland, OH US

Among the easier New Year's resolutions to keep is the one to expand your education. For 2013, consider learning a new language, improving your computer skills, boosting your money knowledge or putting your career on a fast track. "Overall, everyone can probably improve in their communications skills — one of the most fundamental, most used and important skills in every career," said Cincinnati-based career counselor Andrea Kay. These are "verbal and written communication skills. Employers seek it and demand it. It will help you grow into more responsible positions — positions of leadership and more."
Firm up finances. After all the holiday spending comes the headache of paying the bills in January. This is the perfect time to rethink your money strategy for the year.
Where to start? Community colleges like Pierce College in Woodland Hills, Calif., offer adult classes such as "Where Does All My Money Go?"
Houston-based Skills For Living, a nonprofit, offers free financial and career advice. The group's "Kick Your Life Into Shape" course offers training in purchasing insurance and cars, making a will and establishing a trust.
Learn to invest. Take your money knowledge one step further. Pierce College classes such as "Real Estate Investing" and "Stocks, Bonds and Investing: Oh My!" can get you started. One boot-camp style class for adults from Skills For Living is called "Kick Your Assets Into Shape." Topics include taxes, savings, individual retirement accounts, debt reduction and how to negotiate with credit card companies.
"The objective is a 20% change in net worth," Decker said.
Learn languages. Rosetta Stone software is a good start. Other options include enrolling in a class at your local YMCA. At the 92nd Street Y in New York City, choices include French, Hebrew, Italian, Japanese, Mandarin Chinese and Spanish. The best way to boost your command of a foreign language is to immerse yourself in it. Switch the channel to Spanish news, listen to a foreign radio station, or grab a French newspaper.
Plot career advancement. "Education can be expensive," Kay said. "Make sure what you're doing is going to add value to your capabilities and marketability."
You may not need a full semester in a classroom to get new training. "You might be able to get it at your present company or a short-term course through another institution. Or you might be able to gain knowledge through your own self-directed reading," Kay told IBD.
Milton Friedman constantly illustrated how free markets work. He would hold up a yellow wooden pencil and begin: "There's not a single person in the world who can make this pencil."

This is a great place to stay in an RV to visit NYC. The campground is quiet and clean. We did not swim, but it said you can only swim while lifeguards are on duty and we never saw them on duty.
The only draw back is the walk to the train station. It is a 1 1/2 mile walk mainly through the park to the train station which doesn't seem too bad except it was July and very hot and humid. Especially after walking in NYC all day it was a hard walk home. If we go back I would probably call a cab to take us from the station to the campground.
When you ride the train into NYC it is about 45 min and takes you into Grand Central Station. It is a great alternative to driving!
The campground has full hookups, but no wifi or cable. Not an issue when you're gone all day. We did get many channels over the air using our antenna. Overall a great, quiet place to stay while visiting NYC. - Amanda C
Jul 2015 - $50.00
A hidden gem of a campground, right next to the MetroNorth train
line into New York City. Spacious sites, gravel and grass, lots of
trees, and paved roads
Only 30 AMP electric in all sites. Right on the Hudson River,
beach and picnic grounds nearby to the campground. The park is
City Owned, well run and well maintained. - macandphyl
Jun 2015 - $33.00
We were here for 17 days both visiting New York and Hyde Park and West Point. This is a marvelous center for traveling to all three of these. The level, treed sites are rock, have a picnic table, spaced out, have good hook-ups with 30 A and are just delightful. There is no wi-fi and no cable but we had some over the air stations.
Getting to New York took about 45 minutes by train and costs $5.00 on weekends and $9.00 on weekdays and between $30 and $40 depending upon your age. The station is about 1 1/2 miles from the park and there is ample parking (you might have to use the north side of the street.)
There are nice trail through the park. - swike
