A gem of a CG. Management is friendly and obviously takes pride in their park. Sites are FHU/30/50, spacious, level grass with concrete patios and a picnic table. Landscaping is manicured. No fire rings. Immaculate, clean, heated pool. Restrooms are older but fixtures are modern and facilities are very clean. Laundry is $1.50 wash, $0.75 dry. Propane is available at $3.78/gal. Minor freeway noise but not bad. Permanent residents have clean sites. Easy access from I-95. - StephenK

This is a nice quiet park (with the exception of being about .5 from I-95). The rate includes free wifi which works well. Unfortunately, there is no cable TV so the rate paid seems a bit high. The sites are very wide and spacious with full grass and small (10 x 15) cement pad. As it's late March it's hard to say how full they get, but the park is now 3/4 empty as most snowbirds have likely left. Washrooms are very clean. Nice club house. - gypsy parrotheads

Would have gave a higher rating but the lady manager has a very negative attitude. She really acted like she hated dealing with the public anytime we saw her. The park is a very nice 55+ park with wide sites with the water and electric hookups behind the RV. All sites are back in. The pool was very nice as was the rec hall. But it is over priced for location, next to I-95. - Teacher's Pet

We have been here before, Encore owns this property now. Also owns the mobile home park next door. At the time we were here Barnes Blvd. was under construction, only one way to enter park. They had signs posted for detours. Price is reflects weekly rate. Bathrooms & showers were very clean. No open fires allowed in Bevard county. - myriad

I would stay there again. Large pull though sites with trees. I wish they had cable and it would have been perfect. Staff was friendly and everything was clean. Fellow campers were great also. We will be back. - al alvarez

Stayed for 2 weeks in a motorhome. Convenient central Brevard county location. Very clean and well maintained and pet friendly. Daily garbage pickup at site. Good WiFi available for a cost. We got the weekly rate and since it was summer and few customers they gave us a discount break. I wouldn't count getting it any longer as they had recently been bought out by Encore and unless you are an member it is pretty expensive to stay. - rollincritters

Nice shady park, although there is grass, most sites are sandy. We had a nice shady spot with a water view. RV sites have electric, water & sewer
Restrooms/showers , laundry clean and well maintained. WiFi was free but not fantastic
There is a pier on the river and we found this a great place to watch the launch at Cape Canaveral. There is also large fenced dog area.
We paid $12.50 for 2 nights with PA discount and one night full price. I would stay here again if in the area. - Liane63

This is a really great Campground. It's very treed Campground. Sits right on the river. Beautiful pier for fishing. Also has a huge Dog park. We actually stayed 6 months. - DebH
Apr 2016 - $25.00
We enjoyed this peaceful, little campground so much that we added a 4th night to our stay. The campsites are packed sand and are well shaded. The roads in the campground are paved. Our site was full-service which is unusual for a municipal campground. The campground is right on the Indian River. It has a great view, and you can see the tall parts of the Kennedy Space Center across the way. There is a long fishing pier and a boat launch for canoes, kayaks and small john boats. There is a pool. The folks who work here are welcoming and helpful. We will definitely stay here again. - ShoreXplorers

This is a park where all sites are owned. Some are just slabs to park on and others may have homes with RV covers. Some owners rent out. Rate was very reasonable. Had a beautiful site overlooking one of the small lakes. There is a restaurant and café on site. Also, has a service center on site. This was very helpful as my a/c wasn't working well. Eagle Service took care of everything by sending someone to diagnose at my site, handled all the extended warranty to have the a/c replaced and helped get a "chill grill" expedited to add on to the new a/c. Couldn't have had better care anywhere and all service was right on time. - IntrepidCampers

We were traveling with Adventure Caravans on a paid tour so I am not certain about the nightly rate.
We were parked in the rally area, a large parking lot with power and water. It was disappointing. However, the rest of the park has privately owned campsites, many with shelters. Some areas of the park have older structures. Some are brand new. From what we were told people coming in are assigned lots randomly, so there is no telling what area you will be in. There is a nice dog park. - Dreaming

During the "snowbird" season rentals can be difficult to get for more then a short stay. Sites are large with plenty of room between sites and backing-in a large coach is not a problem in most areas. Full hook-ups, paved sites and roads. There's lots to do and shopping is close by. There is an on-site RV repair facility if you are having issues. The rates were for a monthly stay. - Oliver-Max

Very nice accessible park close to I-95. We stayed 1 night while travelling off season in our class B MH - no slides or toad. Timer on shower was a pain, but can be outsmarted. Very nice staff. Cash only for Passport discount. Gate entry gives a bit of extra security. We would stay here again. - KAZIMIRA
Jun 2016 - $21.00
Stayed five days during a holiday weekend. Many snowbirds have left so we had no problem getting in this park, and it was pretty quiet. Since we got the Passport America rate we had to pay cash. We stayed in a premium site in an area which has large, paved, level back-in sites. There is no shade in this area. There are a fair number of permanent RVs but many were closed up for the summer. There are two pools next to the clubhouse, one is a lap pool. A small book exchange and a few exercise machines are in the clubhouse. Laundry is $1.50/load. The park is gated and the staff keep it very clean. We noticed a tennis court, small nature trail, horseshoe pit, pickleball area, several small ponds but since it is not peak season, no one was using these amenities. The wifi worked well for us and cable tv is available. The office staff are friendly and helpful. - mohocamper
Apr 2016 - $22.00
Many different types of sites from gravel to paved, with and without concrete pads. We had a lovely gravel site under huge shade trees and plenty of room for our slide outs. We were able to set up a portable fence around our sitting area for the dogs. The staff was very friendly. They have 2 swimming pools (one heated and one not), a hot tub, and a rec hall. - T Farmer

Permanent residents have debris outside everywhere, making the entire park look trashy. The roads are so narrow, it is difficult to navigate; however, they have not been made one way. We watched people having to back-up as they met opposing traffic. The store had virtually no product, the entire office looked like it was shutting down. - work no more
Jan 2015 - $20.00
Rate was after applying KOA discount, a Hot Deal (stay 5 nts, get 2 additional nts free) and gift card we received for Christmas. During check-in, office staff didn't know how to apply the giftcard to our balance so we had to wait about 15 mins until "the boss" could come from upstairs to show them how to do it. They told us they sold a lot of gift cards during the holidays but didn't know how to apply them! We were given one of the rare pull-thrus near the permanent residents side. Hookups were conveniently placed and site was fairly long. The transient side is mostly back-ins with cement pads or grass. The permanent side which is about 75% of the park (and where our dirt pull-thru was located) is absolutely trashy and depressing. It's basically a crowded trailer park with a lot of trash and personal items like furniture, household items and mulitple vehicles scattered around the sites. Many of the permanent residents allowed their rigs to deteriorate on site. At least one Class C mh was towed out during our stay. Our dirt pull-thru site was right next to the restroom/showers and under huge spanish oaks. Small off leash dog park. Cable was ok with lots of channels. There were 5 wifi repeaters all over the park but none worked consistently so we kept getting dropped and decided to use our own wifi after a couple days. Used shower once, very clean and good water pressure. Men's showers were very busy in the morning and many people drove to take a shower and would park in front of and around our mh because there isn't a designated parking area for the showers. Laundry room was huge with 12 washers and 8 dryers ($2.25 per load, 25 ct to dry). Very tight interior roads and if you have to drive thru the permanent side to get out, you risk hitting cars and golfcarts that are parked on the road. The area around the park is economically depressed but it's close to Cape Canaveral and convenient to the highway. Would never stay here again. - Flippitti
Nov 2014 - $39.00
Nice park that is away from busy I-95 with vey level concrete pads and landscaping between spaces. We were escorted to our site and shown all connections and they made sure we were ok before leaving-nice! The pool was sparkling clean. Some permanents in one section, but not trashy and the people were friendly. - ronboett

This campground is small and close to the highway - which makes it easy on and easy off but there is a bit of highway noise that filters into the campground. It is tight and, while most of the roads are asphalt, one of them is actually still dirt. The bathrooms are clean and so is the laundry room. It is an older park but under new management. The front row faces a nice lake. Older and rustic but we would camp here again. - swike
Mar 2014 - $20.00
This is a regular stop for us on our way to and from South Florida. It's nothing fancy, but it's clean and reliable, and the new owner was very pleasant and friendly. Front-row sites overlook a nice little lake. We've never been bothered by noise from I-95, but we're in the habit of running the fan at night. It's easy in and out with good-size pull-throughs. We were surprised this trip at how busy it was and will call ahead next time if it's in season. - Jean D
Jun 2013 - $20.00
As of April 2013, the park is under new management. The new owners are in the process of renovating the rec hall, updating the facilities, and generally sprucing up everything. The park now is a gem -- level sites and a beautiful lake with fish and wildlife -- so it will be amazing when they get done. The new owners could not have been nicer. It is near a highway, but we never heard noise at night (trees are in between). Our rate reflects the Passport America discount. - ZoAnn

This park is part of the Cape Canaveral Port Auth. It is located within sight of the shipping channel serving the Port. Cruise ships, Casino ships, tugs and container ships can be seen from the campground. Some water only sites are very close to the channel and have an unobstructed view. However, most of those sites slope quite a bit. This area also has a nice playground and picnic area. It is outside of the fenced in campground.
Our site was within the main fenced campground. It was not level front to back. Required 8"+ of leveling blocks for each front wheel. Electric and sewer were on the driver's side and water was 50'+ away on passenger's side. We were fine once setup. Other sites are more level. Some sites have concrete pads.
We were quite surprised how quiet the park and ship traffic was most of the time. We were near the public boat ramp into the channel.
Price is tiered to favor county residents.
We would consider staying here again if we needed to be in this specific area as was the case this time. - B D HOWie
Mar 2016 - $26.00
We live just about 10 minutes away from Jetty Park but love to go here as often as we can. The staff is very accommodating and the campground itself is beautiful. All sites are very easy to back in and set up, all have power and 30 amps, and most have sewer as well. The beach speaks for itself, and the fishing pier is a great place to go and either fish, or watch the cruise ships go by. If you can plan your trip around a rocket launch I highly recommend going to Jetty Park to watch it! - Clgordon
Mar 2016 - $50.00
We stayed at Jetty Park during the month of February and thoroughly enjoyed it. For this park, it's all about location; it's close to good restaurants and it's within close distance to the beach (less than 1/4 mile).
The park is also close to the cruise ship terminal; it's fun to go to the inlet and watch the cruise ships come and go. Plus, the submarine port is just across the inlet; it's interesting to watch them as well.
Our site (spot 311) was barely able to accommodate our 40' class A. It was difficult to find space in the spot to park the "toad" but it was manageable. Again, it's all about location, location, location. The site size problems were insignificant compared to the amenities of both the park and nearby things to do.
The staff at the office are incredibly friendly and helpful. They helped with making future reservations as well as helping us with an medical emergency. Can't say enough about Salli Rink!!! - Maddog11

Campground management was helpful and friendly. Restrooms and laundry were clean and well-maintained. WiFi was fine although it had to be purchased and the purchase process was somewhat clunky. The campground doesn't get a higher review only because of two considerations: the sites are really jammed together with eccentric hookup locations; and the noise from I-95 is fairly oppressive. Still, if we were in the area again, I'd be fine with staying here. - Kaz
Jul 2013 - $25.00
This a pleasant enough park for short term travelers like us who want to tour the area. Staff is friendly, helpful, and accommodating. We didn't use the fee based Wi-Fi. Traffic noise from I-95 is quite noticeable, but not bothersome to us. We would stay here again when in the area. - Roger H.

I felt like I was staying in the median strip of Interstate 95; the noise from traffic was relentless and nonstop. Small pool was dirty during our entire stay. Rate reflects a weeks stay. We were happy to leave and would not return. - Snidely Whiplash

Willow Lakes is a lovely park. It receives top marks for everything. The only negative is the Wifi. We could not access as often as we would have liked.
Quality and appearance of the park was definitely 5 stars. Roads were easy to navigate through. All sites were large. - Miners2
May 2015 - $20.00
While this is a very nice facility and is well appointed. We were disappointed in that we were twice quoted a Passport America rate of $110/week prior to arriving. Once we had set our plans and arrived at the park the rate became $147/week and the office personnel would not honor the twice quoted previous rate. As a result, we would not return since these are not honorable people. - Bob & Stephanie

Since the '70s and '80s, the fragmented, individualist American left has been largely cynical about manifesting change through the party form, yet parties are too important to be left to the two-party system. How do we make a party of communists seem more compelling to more of us again? In her new book Crowds and Party, Jodi Dean diagnoses an American Left splintered by individualism, but ripe for a return to one of the oldest organized political forms: the party. The following is extracted from Crowds and Party.
Donald Trump cuts through the ideological haze of American politics and exposes its underlying truth, the truth of enjoyment. Where other candidates appeal to a fictitious unity or pretense of moral integrity, he displays the power of inequality. Money buys access — why deny it? Money creates opportunity — for those who have it. Money lets those with a lot of it express their basest impulses and desires — there is no need to hide the dark drives when there is none before whom one might feel shame (we might call this the Berlusconi principle). It's the rest of us who bow down.

iPod wins What Hi-Fi? Digital Jukebox Group Test
In the December issue of What Hi-Fi? magazine (UK), Apple's 20GB iPod wins the group test against the likes of the Archos AV320, Creative Jukebox 3, Creative Zen NX, iRiver iHP-100 and Thomson's Lyra. The test found the iPods pros were -"Controlled, detailed sound; easy to use; slim and incredibly stylish; better value than ever." Cons were - "Bass could be beefer; supplied headphones look great but are best replaced" Verdict - "More memory for the money and ever-more options mean our Award winning portable just got even better."

- Apple releases fifth developer betas for iOS 9.3.3, tvOS 9.2.2
I think with the current batch of portables out there, the rational conclusion is that there is no clear winner for every type of custumer.
Value is probablly the Zen NX.
Style, ease of use, size is the iPod.
Fetaures is the iRiver iHP-120
Rio Karma comes somewhere inbetween all of them.
Lots of other variables:
-all the players above have over 10 hours battery life expect the iPod.
-The Zen NX is the only one with a replacable battery
Considering the vast number of consumers out there, they're just to many different demands for anyone player to satisfy. Sometimes a product comes out in an industry that mostly beats the competition in most categories, and becomes the defacto choice for that generation of product for 75% (or more) of the potential customers. You can then probablly make a statement that that one is the best, but the hard-drive MP3 market right now (Winter 2003), does not have such an item. It merely has a many many very good products each matching a wide variety of different consumer demands.
(For example, some people couldn't care less if the NXXtra has a replacable battery, for others battery life is really important, others price for capcity is the most importnat factor, and so on…)

"there is no clear winner for every type of custumer"
Hello?? it's What Hi-Fi's best choice, not "every consumer's" best choice. If it were every consumer's choice, then everyone would have one… see the contradiction you've placed on yourself?
mp3 is becoming more and more popular, but let's not forget you'll need a rather modern computer to use them in the first place, so it won't be "every" consumer's choice for a while as not everyone owns a computer and love music the same time (and if only they want to be bothered or knowing how to convert their music to a compressed format).

For the best sound:value, replace them Sony Fontopia earbuds. There are several versions, depending on how much you want to spend. I have these and these.
I actually like the latter better, as they have larger drive units for more sound with less effort, although audiophiles prefer the former.
I hear Shure also makes some good ones, but I haven't used them myself.

First, I never read Wi-Fi, but most of these kinds of magaiznes, when talking about MP3 players, make a choice and pass it as a recommendation for people in general to follow. Instead of some rational advice on how someone should go about figuring out which player would suit them. To many of them come to the conclusion that the iPod is the ulitmate recommendation when buying an MP3 player.
And in case you're confused, when I said customer, I was obviouslly talking about customers in the market for MP3 players. That's why I later referred to them as " potential customers".
I recommend you read things a little more carefully, and then think a little more about the things you read. It's actually pretty good life advice, I find.

We had a beautiful shaded level site. The campground is in a convenient setting for seeing all parts of the island. The owners are delightful and helpful. We could not have had a nicer stay (we were there for one week).
There are only three TV stations by antenna, and Wi-Fi was iffy, patience required. Unfortunately our hot spot didn't work in Canada. - pegbud

From the moment you drive through the front entrance it is obvious that this is a very well maintained campground. The owners greeted us at check in, and could not have been more welcoming, friendly or helpful, pride of ownership is very obvious here, they actually care about their customers, what a pleasant change! The interior road is hard packed clay and big rig access was marginal in a few areas. Our spacious level back in site was gravel, surrounded by trees, so there was plenty of privacy, and space for our towed, there was also a picnic table and fire ring. We were parked not far from the main road, so there was a little road noise from time to time, but nothing that bothered us. The bathrooms were immaculate, and the fresh cut flowers by the basins were a very nice touch. The laundry was also immaculate and had two washers and two dryers. All the grounds are very well maintained and thoughtfully laid out, with trails going though the woods to cute cabins, the fishing pond or the lovely heated pool. WiFi and cell were good, and the recycling station was easy to use. We happened upon this campground as many of the popular choices were closed for the season, what an unexpected find, how we missed it when doing our research is a mystery, as the ratings are deservedly excellent. This campground is well located for sightseeing and we would definitely stay here again. There are some lovely local restaurants and Charlottetown is 12 miles away and has all the shopping facilities and restaurants you could ever wish for. - tobyjug

Marlene and Wes Andrews provided us with outstanding local information. When our bike had a flat tire, Wes made an appointment for us at a local bike shop and we didn't lose any time getting to our ride. Outstanding campground. - lanceley

Most kids would give this place a 10 because of the pool, playground, bounce platform, and all the other kid activities. While all KOAs have these things, I have to admit that this place has them in abundance to make kids happy. For me and most adults, I can say it was well taken care of with grassy and gravel camping spots. Sites are comfortably spaced apart, though not as spaced as most state and provincial parks. Once the weekend crowd left, it was very comfortable. The WiFi also was weak, but got substantially better after most people had left, although I would still have needed my booster. Had some Rogers cell service. Check-in people were very pleasant and helpful, and the campground store carries milk, bread, eggs, and a few other essentials. - judy_online

Cavendish is a great KOA. The location is perfect. Right in the middle of Cavendish, which is a tourist type area. Water parks, amusement rides, mini golf, attractions, and all the tourist trap shops are close by. The National Park beaches are right down the road. Take a ride to Rustico and visit an old time fishing village. Or head down to Charlottetown and see the historic city. All are worth doing. PEI is one of the most beautiful places in all of Canada. The campground is great. The sites are large, and mostly level. They are particularly long. There was plenty of room for our trailer, and our tow vehicle, and had plenty of length left on our site. Lots of stuff to do at the campground too. Movie nights, jumping pillow, playground, RC car dirt track. It is a very nice campground. The bath houses are clean. - Brad K

Nice large grassed KOA, with a moderate number of trees. Some sites are gravel, others grass. Most sites slightly sloped. Paved roads. Very clean nice bathhouse with hot water. Wife said laundry could have been cleaner and half of dryers out of order. Very pleasant lady at checkin/store. - 210jem

A huge campground with many Canadians and caravans. Make reservations early, particularly if you want 50 amp service. Centrally located on the island. Paved interior roads and grass sites (very thick and not worn). Site we had was very wide and was a back in. Open skies for Direct TV but because of the northerly location some channels are only available in standard definition. A couple of location channels out of Charlottetown. Verizon with international plan worked well. 30 minutes from Charlottetown and Summerside. If you are driving a big motorhome, put down blocks under your jacks because the ground can be soft after rains (but not muddy) and you will sink in. Great water pressure. Good 50 amp service. Even though there are many sites, you don't feel crowded because of the layout. Lots of kids here on summer vacation so drive slowly through the park. We would stay here again. - literod
Aug 2015 - $43.00
Very nice campground. Place is clean and staff are very friendly. We stayed 4 days. We were in the open section. Would stay here again. I would recommend this campground to anyone looking for spot in the Cavendish area, as it is close to the center of all attractions including the beach. This campground has been around for a number of years and it is clean and very secure. They have two supervised heated pool which is great. They also have a nice rec hall, a large store onsite and also a restaurant. Campground is large enough to take your morning walk or a good bike rides with the kids. Pads are leveled and dry. - GGLL

"Roads in the park, some paved, some dirt, are narrow with overhanging branches to dodge in places, and, unfortunately, two-way. Add a plethora of exuberant children on bikes, and the area requires extra vigilence. Our grass site was fairly level and quite spacious with conveniently placed water, 30 amp, and sewer hookups. A couple of small trees added a bit of character, but no shade.
The free WiFi signal was strong, but the throughput was miserably spotty and slow. Although we didn't use the bathrooms or laundry, the facilities looked clean, convenient, and the washers seemed reasonably priced.
Overall value seemed Okay for these amenities at this price." - DaveInOhio

Large spacious park with many activities for kids. Our site had a gorgeous waterview. There is a large laundry room, best I've seen in a RV park. The wifi was extremely fast right from the rig and everywhere in the park. The staff here is better than the best. They make every effort to make sure all your needs are met. - Jimmytheshoe

CAN$ 51 per night for a 3-way site that offered quality services. Wi-fi was great except for busy weekend. Bell stick worked then. Dry firewood. Our pull-thru site overlooked the River and tidal beach. Roadway was a little eroded in the non paved areas and some water puddles in some roadways. Very kid friendly with many amenities for them to enjoy. Good location to explore and not far from Charlottetown. Pet friendly. Would stay again. - cdude

This is a HUGE campground, but sites are not at all cramped. Sites are large and grassy. Beautiful views, especially the sunsets! The beaches seem to go on forever and the water was much warmer that I expected. Didn't spend much time on the beach though because the temperature was cooler than normal for that time of year (our max temp was 74) and it was painfully windy. Wifi was virtually nonexistent and they will only give you one login code - if you have more than one device you have to pay for additional codes. Beautiful campground but I couldn't rate it higher because of the lack of cable, swimming pool, and poor wifi. - Bonnie66

Great location, you can do everything in PEI from here. Great views. Staff were great here. They were having a new wifi system installed they were having problems with; they offered me to use their private WiFi in the office while it was being fixed. We used our Passport America discount here, great value. - North America in 90 days

This big (200 spaces) national campground is laid out in fairly dense forest, with pretty tight spaces (couldn't extend our awning more than about 3') and adjacent to the white sand beach. Access to the beach is easy, as are the shower facilities; several good hike/bike trails throughout; fire hose stations set about the campground. Great place to stay while visiting all the Green Gables attractions and the St. Lawrence Gulf area. Free access in over the international peace bridge, about $15/axel to get back across! - North Texas DJC

Since we stayed here last year they have updated the washrooms- stainless steel sinks and cedar ceilings and trim- this was our major concern last year that the washrooms were in very poor shape and not well maintained. Our site was narrow but as we have no slideouts it was fine- we had 3-way service. We were near the entrance but just a few minutes to walk to the beach. Great spot. - Ron and Lynda

Located about 1 mile from the Confederation Bridge and adjacent to the road, noise is definitely an issue. The grounds have trees in the back, but the front is literally an open field with access road down the middle. The 50 amp sites are at the front, close to the road and noise is definitely an issue - 24/7 as every vehicle using the bridge drives past the campground. Our section was basically a grass field with services. Sites are very close, with our off-door side slide outs at the line and the awning on the other side actually over the line. Fortunately, they weren't busy and only filled every 2nd site, which made it comfortable. Services are well located, but water pressure/volume is low. The sites slope side to side and also front to back. They also had a drop off on either side of the road. WiFi was good. Positives - staff were very pleasant. - Oriana
Aug 2014 - $36.00
Very clean, quiet and well kept campground. Friendly staff. We stayed here a few days and enjoyed the live music in the music hall that happens each weekend. The new heated saltwater pool was amazing! The campground has seen a lot of upgrades since it became a KOA as we stopped here a few years back before it became a KOA. Cable TV is available in the game room along with free pool tables. When we were leaving they were installing a jumping pillow. Very easy on and off the highway. - boondocked
Jul 2014 - $36.00
Rate shown for 30 amp back-in. Our site was level grass and while backing in hit a patch of torn up sod and dirt. Noticed that other sites in that area up front had the same condition. So be careful while backing up in those spots. Road noise was heard as site wasn't that far from the highway. Sites were very close and no privacy at all. Cable TV may be available, but only at a few sites. We didn't have one, so don't know how it worked. There were six channels off the antenna, but only three networks. Wi-Fi was strong, but controlled to prevent excessive downloading or hogging of bandwidth. Free entertainment at the hall many nights of the week. We might stay here again, but in the back further away from the highway. - Onemoretrail

Not fancy but a great centrally located campground right off the Bay. All grassy open sites with a few trees. A few long term units but plenty of wide open spaces. Extremely windy while we were there the last week of August - 40/50 MPH. Everyone including staff friendly and anxious to help with directions and tourist information. Near Anne of Green Gables and close to Charlottetown. All of PEI is laid back by US standards. The park is older and the electrical seemed weak but we survived and thoroughly enjoyed our stay and PEI. Wife liked laundry facilities. - KilaH

Park road to office had a warning sign about dusty roads and there were potholes as well. Friendly and helpful staff who warned me about a stock car race nearby happening the next night. I would have booked for one night, but being a weekend it was a 2 night minimum. We could have moved on, but most of the other campgrounds in the area have the same policy. The rates here are more reasonable than the campgrounds in Cavendish. Our site was a gravel/grass pull-through that required leveling. Table and fire ring included. Trees at the front of the campsite make it awkward to exit forward. No cable TV, but found 3 digital channels off the antenna. The transient sites are fairly open so satellite TV reception is possible. Wi-Fi link strong, but lack of bandwidth slowed down internet or even dropped out at times. Laundry has 3 washers and 3 dryers. Each takes 2 loonies. Wife says both work fine, but the washers bounced around on the flimsy floor which even had a few holes in it. Good for a couple of nights, but I wouldn't stay any longer. - Onemoretrail

Very friendly owners and nicely run campground. Good location to explore just about all of PEI. Close to Charlottetown, Cavendish, Rustico, National Parks, etc... About half the sites are seasonal. Unlike some other campgrounds in Canada, the owners of this property have taken care to make sure that the seasonal occupants are of good quality and well behaved (sorry, no good way to make this point.) The only "ding" is the location of a local 1/4 mile oval race track to the south which has races nearly every Saturday during the summer. Usually, if the wind is not directly from the south you'd hardly know they were there, but if the wind is strong and from the south you will notice them. But it's over in three hours or so and the rest of the experience more than makes up for this. We would definitely stay here again. - User3589

Huge park set up in numerous circles which makes it feel like a small park. Some are heavily treed and some are tree lined open meadows. Great kids play areas and large playing fields. Large heated pool. We had 3 services with 50 AMP elect. Free WiFi but even with park 70% empty, we find it is definitely NOT great. Water pressure was good. Very large and long sites great for big rigs. Sites are grass with picnic table and fire ring. Large clean bathhouses with lots of hot water and at no charge. - JanneC

We booked a specific site before we left only to discover they had moved us to a different, smaller site when we got there because some other campers wanted to be grouped together. After getting setup we spoke to our neighbors who told us they had asked for the site we were on because they had family staying in the campground and they wanted to be together and they were told they could not be grouped together. The bathrooms were not very clean and needed a major update and re-plumbing. Overall this campground is starting to show its age and is starting to get rundown. - CokeCacher
Jul 2013 - $40.00
I agree with the other July 2013 post. What I would add is that I was here after some rain and the road was messy to walk on and you can track it into your MH. I'm from the US and Americans will go crazy trying to adhear to the tough recyle rules with 3 different bags. Pizza boxes have to be scraped of food first. Napkins go in 1 bag while newspapers go in another. They even mentione items like bubble gum, q-tips, etc. To adhere to their rules I would have had to take my dog's droppings out of the plastic bag that I put it in when i picked it up and then put it in a different bag than the plastic bag I picked it up with!! They do have a dump station, but it's tight to get in there and it's on the WRONG side on your way out? I would came here again, although I would check out the National Park across the street first. - twowoofs

CDS spreads fall across Middle East
Egyptian credit default swap (CDS) spreads fell again today, narrowing from 379 basis points to 364bp between close of play on Friday and 1.00pm today, according to financial information provider Markit. Although protesters continue to occupy Tahrir Square in central Cairo, the political tension in Egypt appears to have eased slightly since vice-president Omar Sulieman entered into negotiations with opposition groups to bring the crisis to an end. CDS spreads have also fallen elsewhere in the Middle...

Previous Challenge Entry (Level 2 – Intermediate)
Topic: The Church (12/06/07)
TITLE: One
By Ann Renae Hair
She shuddered as she stepped into the foyer of the church. Whew, that was close. She was still shaken from the adrenaline rush. She reached for the coat hanger and took a deep breath. A cup of coffee and some good old fashion fellowship, and I�ll be just fine. She always looked forward to the Ladies� Christmas Celebration.
�Hi! My name is Betty. Welcome to The Church.�
�Hello, Betty. Uh, I�m Margaret. It�s nice to meet you. I don�t recognize you. Are you new here?�
�Oh, no! I�ve been a member since I was eleven years old. Come in. I have some friends I�d like you to meet.�
�I�m sorry. I�ve been a member of Sonshine Baptist for twenty three years and I�ve never seen you before. How can that be?� She rubbed her forehead, shook off the strange feeling that was flooding over her, and returned Betty�s gracious smile.
�The important thing, Margaret, is that we are sisters in Christ! Come, now�I want you to meet our brothers, Paul and Timothy.�
�Brothers? Are they singing tonight at the Ladies� Banquet?�
Betty hooked her arm around Margaret�s elbow and guided her through the banquet room doors.
As soon as they entered the room, the bright Light at the far end caused Margaret to cover her face and her heart pounded boldly in her chest. Maybe that close call rattled me more than I realized.
Betty patted her hand and reassured her. �It�s okay, Margaret. Everyone has that reaction when they first see the Light.�
�You don�t understand�on my way here--�
�It�s okay, dear. I do understand. Come along.�
Betty whisked Margaret into the kitchen where they were greeted by many faces. As Margaret was struggling to make some sense of it all, an Asian woman extended her hand and smiled as she said, �Welcome, Margaret. I�m so glad to meet you.�
Next, an African-American man vigorously shook her whole arm. �Glad to meet ya, missy. Glad to meet ya. Name�s Alfred. Pleasure�s mine.�
A Russian couple squeezed forward and wrapped their strong arms around her in a robust hug.
A French man kissed her hand, �Welcome, Madame Margaret.� He bowed and smiled into her eyes.
She felt as if she was spinning to the point of dizziness. �I think I need to sit down. I�m feeling��
The Light was shining in her eyes again, but this time instead of covering her face, she wept. The Light was soft and inviting, warm and enveloping. She blinked the last tears from her eyes as He reached out and wiped them away, pausing with His hand on her cheek.
She looked into His eyes with all the knowing she ever desired being fulfilled in that moment. �Well done, my good and faithful Margaret. You believed in Me and served The Church very well. Welcome home.� Joy burst forth in her heart with a fullness she had previously experienced only in part.
Margaret looked around the Banquet Room. Transformation took place before her eyes, as if they were opened anew. The familiar elements of her home church were there, but different. Exquisite chandeliers sparkled around the room. Ornately carved wood accented the ceiling. Rich green velvet plush covered all the seats.
Faces from her past now surrounded her. �Dad, Mother, Dan, Sandra�.Oh!�
The song of children tingled in her ears. She watched them dancing across the room, beautiful in melody, every tune sweet and savory.
Betty rested her arm over Margaret�s shoulder. �Now, for more introductions. Meet your whole family: our brothers, Paul, Timothy, Elijah, David, Joseph�; sisters, Mary, Tabitha, Deborah, Ruth��
She joined with others from all over the world she had never before met. All spoke one language�one people�one Church�every nation, every walk of life, every age and size�together forever�one.

We are fairly dedicated viewers of the long-running series BBC Gardener's World. Of late it has been on free-to-air Choice TV (interspersed with huge quantities of advertising) and sometimes it turns up on the Living Channel.
There was a programme that screened here last November that demonstrated the technique of the Chelsea chop. I tried it in a small way and will be doing a great deal more of it this coming year.
The Chelsea chop came by its name, apparently, because at the end of the annual Chelsea Flower Show many surplus plants were returned to nurseries. These plants in full growth, nearing or at their peak, were often cut back hard. Presumably some were plants forced into early growth to peak for the show and that early growth can be leggy. Plants responded with greatly increased vigour and put on extended floral displays with much bushier and more compact shapes.
Thus did the term the Chelsea chop enter the lexicon of English gardening.
Right, I thought. Chelsea is towards the end of May that translates to November in our hemisphere. I headed out with the snips to experiment. It seemed extreme because I was cutting off flower stems that were already well advanced. In some cases, I cut half and left half. I can now report that it works and I will be doing a great deal more of it next spring.
Important points to note are that we are talking about perennials here, not shrubs or bulbs. You need to understand your perennials, because it only works on varieties that repeat flower. If you snip the ones that only flower once, such as irises or aquilegias, you won't get any flowers at all.
I tried it on perennial lobelias, sedums, penstemons and asters.
The unchopped lobelias have shot up their flower spikes to over 1.5 metres and they have promptly fallen over in the welcome rain this week. The plants I Chelsea-chopped are only a few days behind in their stage of flowering but have tidy, sturdy stems about 50cm high. They are much better in the garden borders.
Many readers will understand when I complain about the sedums that grow brilliantly from such tidy rosettes at ground level, but when they reach a certain point of being top heavy they fall apart. The Chelsea-chopped ones are more compact and holding together at this stage.
I cut the asters because I didn't want them to flower until late summer and they were threatening to do it too early. They are just opening now, on lovely bushy mounds of plant, and should take us into autumn.
I see the Telegraph website advice is to Chelsea-chop Campanula lactiflora (which can get a bit too tall and fall over if you don't stake it), rudbeckias, echinaceas and heleniums as well. That newspaper's writer advises to prune back by a third. Essentially, it is a more extreme version of pinching out plants at their early stages to encourage bushier growth.
Perennial gardening is our current learning project here. We have been working on it for a few years now and the more we learn, the more we realise there is to learn. New Zealanders don't have a great record in perennial or herbaceous gardening. We lean more to bunging them all in together in mixed borders, or working from a very limited palette in large swathes of the same plant.
The mix-and-match approach to perennials is very English. They just do it so much better than anywhere else we have seen. Underpinning it (at its best) is a wealth of experience in successional flowering and good combinations. It is not just flower colour combinations, it is also compatible growth habits. This may be growing a naturally leggy plant (such as Campanula lactiflora) through a plant that is sturdy enough to support its leaning companion. It is making sure that a big voluptuous plant can't flop all over a low-growing, more retiring specimen. It is getting variations within the foliage as well as the flowers. It is getting the plant shapes right.
And it is not just peak flowering looking its best for three weeks of the year. It is understanding that combinations will take the garden through the season from spring to autumn, so as one finishes another star takes centre stage. Judicious use of the Chelsea chop can extend the display, staggering flowering through the season.
There is a lot to it. No wonder people opt for mass plantings of the same plant. It is much easier. So, too, with the cottage garden that does not require the same level of skill. This type of intensive gardening is not to everybody's taste, but we are finding it interesting to learn. To be honest, I had not appreciated the skill that goes into putting in a really good planting of herbaceous material.
I will be doing my best impersonation of a garden hairdresser come this November. I will be out there snip, snip, snippin' away.

Examine costs of fire protection
Article published on
Tuesday, March 1, 2005
Re: Town approves an interlocal agreement for EMS oversight, Bob MacPherson, Feb. 17
Interesting that our Indian Shores Council refers to the failed tax change last November for the Pinellas Suncoast Fire & Rescue District in that Indian Shores would have saved thousands of dollars by approving a square footage rate of 17 cents rather than the approved $190 per year to support the Fire District.
Two thirds of Indian Shores property owners would have paid less than the $190 per year rate by approving the square footage proposal. That is not opinion, that reflects the records of the property appraiser.
Indian Shores elected officials have been supportive of the multimillion-dollar valued properties of elected officials in Belleair Shore, Belleair Beach and Indian Rocks Beach, where there are many individual houses. Indian Shores has fewer than 100 private homes, but many, many condos. Some of those condos are valued at $1 million to $2 million, mostly owned by folks who do not live or vote here.
Question: Would the people of Indian Shores and the other towns prefer the fire district be dissolved and management be sent to Largo, Clearwater or Seminole? If so, they would then be subjected to their 2-plus mills cost of fire service. That takes the 3,000-square-foot beach-front home tax to $3,000 per annum rather than the proposed $510 defeated last November.
Others, including a Belleair Shore commissioner, with $3.5 million homes ($54,000 tax bill for county and town) now paying $215, would pay $7,000 a year should Clearwater or someone else take management of the department. And, the title they put upon themselves is Save our PSF&RD.
Whoever wants to pay more in fire department taxes had best check the cost charged by all of the more expensive and not better departments.

I have look for this cemetery and have been unable to find it. I see that it is in Bradford Woods. The Albertson's that are buried here are in my direct line. I would so much like to see this cemetery.
Can you give me directions to find the cemetery?
And will I need permission to go on to the land where the cemetery is located? I realize that there is not much left but I really would like to see this area.

Archiving and Compression
Before gunzipping a file (or files) with gunzip, you might want to verify that they're going to gunzip correctly without any file corruption. To do this, use the -t (or --test) option.
$ gzip -t paradise_lost.txt.gz
That's right: If nothing is wrong with the archive, gzip reports nothing back to you. If there's a problem, you'll know, but if there's not a problem, gzip is silent. That can be a bit disconcerting, but that's how Unix-based systems work. They're generally only noisy if there's an issue you should know about, not if everything is working as it should.
Working with bzip2 is pretty easy if you're comfortable with gzip, as the creators of bzip2 deliberately made the options and behavior of the new command as similar to its progenitor as possible.
$ ls -l -rw-r--r-- scott scott 1236574 moby-dick.txt $ bzip2 moby-dick.txt $ ls -l -rw-r--r-- scott scott 367248 moby-dick.txt.bz2
Just like gzip, bzip2 leaves you with just the .bz2 file. The original moby-dick.txt is gone. To keep the original file, use the -c (or --stdout) option and pipe the output to a filename that ends with .bz2.
$ ls -l -rw-r--r-- scott scott 1236574 moby-dick.txt $ bzip2 -c moby-dick.txt > moby-dick.txt.bz2 $ ls -l -rw-r--r-- scott scott 1236574 moby-dick.txt -rw-r--r-- scott scott 367248 moby-dick.txt.bz2
If you look back at "Archive and Compress Files Using gzip," you'll see that gzip and bzip2 are incredibly similar, which is by design.
Just as with zip and gzip, it's possible to adjust the level of compression that bzip2 uses when it does its job. The bzip2 command uses a scale from 0 to 9, in which 0 means "no compression at all" (which is like tar, as you'll see later), 1 means "do the job quickly, but don't bother compressing very much," and 9 means "compress the heck out of the files, and I don't mind waiting a bit longer to get the job done." The default is 6, but modern computers are fast enough that it's probably just fine to use 9 all the time.
$ ls -l -rw-r--r-- scott scott 1236574 moby-dick.txt $ bzip2 -c -1 moby-dick.txt > moby-dick.txt.bz2 $ ls -l -rw-r--r-- scott scott 1236574 moby-dick.txt -rw-r--r-- scott scott 424084 moby-dick.txt.bz2 $ bzip2 -c -9 moby-dick.txt > moby-dick.txt.bz2 $ ls -l -rw-r--r-- scott scott 1236574 moby-dick.txt -rw-r--r-- scott scott 367248 moby-dick.txt.bz2
From 424KB with 1 to 367KB with 9 — that's quite a difference! Also notice the difference in ultimate file size between gzip and bzip2. At -9, gzip compressed moby-dick.txt down to 488KB, while bzip2 mashed it even further to 367KB. The bzip2 command is noticeably slower than the gzip command, but on a fast machine that means that bzip2 takes two or three seconds longer than gzip, which frankly isn't much to worry about.
Note - If you want to be clever, define an alias in your .bashrc file that looks like this:
alias bzip2='bzip2 -9'
That way, you'll always use -9 and won't have to think about it.
In the same way that bzip2 was purposely designed to emulate gzip as closely as possible, the way bunzip2 works is very close to that of gunzip.
$ ls -l -rw-r--r-- scott scott 367248 moby-dick.txt.bz2 $ bunzip2 moby-dick.txt.bz2 $ ls -l -rw-r--r-- scott scott 1236574 moby-dick.txt
You'll notice that bunzip2 is similar to gunzip in another way: Both commands remove the original compressed file, leaving you with the final uncompressed result. If you want to ensure that you have both the compressed and uncompressed files, you need to use the -c option (or --stdout or --to-stdout) and pipe the results to the file you want to create.
$ ls -l -rw-r--r-- scott scott 367248 moby-dick.txt.bz2 $ bunzip2 -c moby-dick.txt.bz2 > moby-dick.txt $ ls -l -rw-r--r-- scott scott 1236574 moby-dick.txt -rw-r--r-- scott scott 367248 moby-dick.txt.bz2
It's a good thing when commands copy each other's options and behavior, as it makes them easier to learn. In this, the creators of bzip2 and bunzip2 showed remarkable foresight.
Note - If you're not feeling favorable toward bunzip2, you can also use bzip2 -d (or --decompress or --uncompress).
Unzipping Password Protected Zips
You left out how to unzip ZIP files that are password protected in Linux. I'm searching for this elusive bit of information on the internet right now...
Password protectedly adding files by PHP code was not found
Password protectedly adding files by PHP code was not found on the internet when i was searching for it... so i come across your article and it gave me the idea to why not issue a system command by php to add files in zip and even protect the files by password ;)
No mention of lzma?
How about rzip or lzma? I recall an article in the print edition within the last ten or eleven issues that compared the cpu overhead of each compression method against compression ratios (and possibly other parameters). Anyways, rzip is memory and cpu intensive, IIRC, but has the potential to make enormous savings. I think it's the same as burrows-wheeler over larger data sets, possibly. Worthwhile for stuff that won't be frequently decompressed, IMO.
actually rzip levels are in search buffer sizes:
-x = x00MB for x>0 and x<=9
cpu intensive? well depends. I hacked bzip2 compression hooks out of the rzip and it's one of the fastest pre archiving filters with best compression ratio for mysql dump of dbmail database.
yup found bug but only in decompression algorithm - not the data itself. yes - made Andrew to fix it.
Correction to wording
In the section "Archive Files with tar", paragraph 3, you state that tar is "designed to compress entire directory structures". I think this should read "designed to archive...", since this section deals only with tar's standalone use as an archival tool and since this article/chapter is intended to highlight the difference between archiving and compressing. Other than that, this is a very handy primer on archiving and compressing in *nix.

The article states that the default block size for bzip2 is -6. The man page for my system (Ubuntu 6.06) states that -9 is the default, and I am unaware of any system where -6 is the default.
Making -9 the default
An easier way to default to the best (-9) compression level would be to export GZIP='-9' and ZIPOPTS='-9' into your environment.

One of the best things about the UNIX environment (aside from being stable and efficient) is the vast array of software tools available to help you do your job. Traditionally, a UNIX tool does only one thing, but does that one thing very well. For example, grep is very easy to use and can search vast amounts of data quickly. The find tool can find a particular file or files based on all kinds of criteria. It's pretty easy to string these tools together to build even more powerful tools, such as a tool that finds all of the .log files in the /home directory and searches each one for a particular entry. This erector-set mentality allows UNIX system administrators to seem to always have the right tool for the job.
Cron traditionally has been considered another such a tool for job scheduling, but is it enough? This webinar considers that very question. The first part builds on a previous Geek Guide, Beyond Cron, and briefly describes how to know when it might be time to consider upgrading your job scheduling infrastructure. The second part presents an actual planning and implementation framework.

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide

The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe
by C.S. Lewis
The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe Chapter 16 Summary
What Happened About the Statues
- Lucy is amazed to see the Witch's courtyard; she thinks all the statues make it look like a museum.
- Aslan begins bounding around, pouncing and romping like a big cat. Each time he comes near one of the statues, he breathes on it.
- Lucy and Susan realize that Aslan's breath is un-petrifying the statues, turning stone back into the people and creatures of Narnia!
- First, Aslan turns the statue of a lion back into a real lion. The real lion is excited to see Aslan and follows him around.
- Soon the courtyard is full of different people and creatures laughing and talking.
- Susan notices Aslan arrive at the feet of the stone giant. She's worried that the giant might not be friendly, but once Aslan has breathed on his feet and restored him to health, Giant Rumblebuffin turns out to be the Witch's enemy and their friend.
- After they finish with the courtyard, Aslan instructs everyone to go into the Witch's house and find all the other prisoners and statues.
- While they are ransacking the Witch's castle, Lucy finds Mr. Tumnus, who has indeed been turned to stone. Aslan breathes on him and soon he and Lucy are having a happy reunion!
- Finally, everyone has been rescued. Aslan has Giant Rumblebuffin smash the walls of the courtyard with his club and everyone emerges into the woods.
- Giant Rumblebuffin is sweaty after working hard to destroy the walls, so Lucy lends him her handkerchief to mop his face. The handkerchief is far too small for him, but he is very polite and thanks Lucy anyway. Mr. Tumnus tells Lucy that all the Buffins are good giants.
- Aslan organizes everyone for the journey across country back to the site of the battle, where they need to join in and help Peter, Edmund, and everyone else. The other lion is flattered and excited to help Aslan, but not very helpful.
- Eventually, they set off. The animals that can track scents – dogs and lions and wolves – pick up the scent of the army and lead the way. The animals that can run trot along behind them, with everyone else riding on their backs. Lucy and Susan ride on Aslan.
- As they come to the end of the valley and onto the plain, Lucy is able to hear the sounds of the battle – metal clashing against metal, shouting, and shrieking.
- On the battlefield, Peter, Edmund, and the rest of Aslan's army are valiantly holding their ground against the Witch's forces, even though they are outnumbered and exhausted.
- There are statues everywhere, but the Witch seems to have lost her wand and is using the stone knife to fight Peter.
- Lucy and Susan get off Aslan's back and he rushes toward the Witch and pounces on her!
- The people and creatures that Aslan has freed from the Witch's castle rush into the battle, acting as reinforcements.

Just came back after a 3 nite stay @ SpringHill by Marriott @ Alexandria VA. Overall I would recommend this hotel to family with young children like myself.
Clean modern décor, ample suite with most amenities, free parking / wifi / breakfast, short driving distance from Old Town and DC , reasonable prices....although pool is small and cramped.
Since I travel with young children, complimentary breakfast is important ( little tummies need to fill up before touring around! )
Special kudo 4 "Sara" and the team manning the breakfast corner! I own retail business and would hire her in a heart beat!
