2003 Land Rover Range Rover Overview
The Range Rover was completely redesigned for 2003. This overhaul marked the beginning of the upscale SUV's third generation, even though this was the 34th year of production. Almost everything is new, as Land Rover has put greater emphasis on ride quality and user friendliness.
Only one style is offered: the HSE. The interior has been completely redesigned for additional space and a more luxurious environment. Yet, some traditional Land Rover styling cues remain. Skid plates, Xenon headlights, descent control, stability control, 19-inch wheels, three-zone climate control (front and rear), and power retractable side mirrors are all new features this year. Amenities include leather upholstery, a harmon/kardon audio system, CD changer, a navigation system (with off-road mapping), walnut trim, a moon roof, keyless entry, heated mirrors and an anti-theft system.
Although Land Rover is now owned by Ford, this new third generation model was developed while the British marque was under BMW's control. The German automaker supplied the new engine, which replaced an antiquated 4.6 liter V-8. The new 4.4 liter V-8 offers a significant power upgrade, with 282 horsepower and 325 pound-feet of torque. Range Rover's towing capacity jumped from 6500 to 7700 pounds with this addition, and fuel economy also improved slightly, up from 12/15 to 12/17 mpg. The BMW-engineered V-8 is paired with a five-speed automatic, also new this year.
BMW engineering is also evidence in the new Range Rover's improved ride quality. Previous design elements like solid axle suspension and body-on-frame construction were discontinued. The new model gets uni-body construction and four-wheel independent suspension. The height-adjustable air suspension system returns, allowing drivers nearly 11 inches of ground clearance.
The new Range Rover has been well-reviewed with ride and interior quality listed as two common favorite features. Mechanical issues and reliability complaints have reduced dramatically since 2002, but some electrical problems have been reported. Many deal with the navigation system, which seemed to be more reliable off-road than on the streets. The Range Rover offers the same luxury and off-road capability as always, but now with a more inviting interior, improved build quality, an a noticeably refined feel. "Enjoyable to drive" has become a common accolade in 2003. Few would made such claim before.

First of the Season
Wynwoods first art crawl of 2007 busts out tonight with a squall at Diana Lowenstein Fine Arts, featuring Vicenta Casañs miami:tropicaldepression and Erica Magreys Troubadour. Casañ continues her manipulation of the Magic Citys skyline, obliterating familiar landmarks to create a sense of melancholy and unease. Her new series of photographs bleeds through with unnatural color, exaggerated cloud formations, and turbulent water to depict barren yet eerily familiar scenes of the calm before a storm or its devastating aftereffects. Magreys video unfolds the tale of a fictitious, gloomy glam rocker named Metalmags and her psychedelic journey through an alien world as she tries to wend her way to reality with the aid of a self-help tape.
At Jakmel Art Gallery and Cultural Center, Jude Papaloko presents The Beauty Amidst a Place, a photographic group show celebrating life in Israel and Lebanon. The exhibit cracks a window onto the culture and richness of a region most people associate with conflict. Beginning tonight at 7:00, the exhibit will feature live music and a performance by Elizabeth Ayoub. Call 786-312-5997, or visit www.judepapaloko.com.

Pro-fashion, anti-ex-boyfriends and ready to become the next big thing, folk and soul singer Lianne La Havas just can't stop sharing her innermost thoughts with the world. It's a formula that has carried her to the brink of major league success. She tells Roe McDermott about her high-heeled journey towards the top.
"It's nice to meet youuuuuuuu!" Lianne La Havas yodels as she nearly takes a tumble down the stairs of the Sugar Club. And no wonder. The pint-sized chanteuse is teetering on five-inch wedges. "I have to wear them – I'm only 5'2", without them the people in the back wouldn't be able to see me!" she laughs. "I have my trusty Doc Martins too, out of necessity – Ireland and your cobblestones!"
Whether she'll be able to find them is another story, as her phone, stage outfit – and, slightly more importantly, band and crew – have all disappeared. "Where is everyone?!" the 22-year-old wails, wandering around the backstage area in mock despair.
"I feel left out!" It appears the lads have all fecked off next door for a couple of sneaky pints before her sold-out gig kicks off later that night. "Oh, I can't go back. I was in there earlier – fans were already waiting and were chatting to us, it was lovely! But I had a Guinness and if I have another I'll actually be drunk. I think someone has my phone, unless it's hiding around here somewhere."
Still searching, La Havas opens a suitcase to reveal what I can only describe as Hipster Barbie Princess' dream dress-up box. Pulling out micro-shorts, flirty underskirts and whimsically printed blouses, she muses over what to don for this evening's show, asking my opinion on a flouncy burnt orange mini-skirt.
With my assurance that it's adorable, she decides to wear it later, and instantly seems less antsy. "See, this is the problem with touring with boys – you ask them an opinion and they either stare at you blankly or all give completely different answers. I need more oestrogen around here!"
Not that her fashion is suffering. Currently the epitome of London chic in tiny shorts, a leather jacket and gorgeous, bouncy curls, the singer's quirky vintage/high street stage ensembles have already made her a bit of a style icon.
"I love vintage!" she enthuses. "And luckily London does that well. Any outfit that shows off that womanly shape and I'm there – nipped-in waists, '50s skirts, I love it all!"
While her style may have young girls rummaging around in their mother's wardrobes, it's her voice that has fans glued to the radio. Smart, sassy and soulful, her singing style – a mix of Erykah Badu and Yukimi Nagano – and wonderfully honest lyrics have taken the music industry by storm. She was recently nominated for BBC's 'Sound of 2012' poll, while her enchanting performance on BBC's Later... With Jools Holland – "possibly the happiest day of my life, completely magical" – outshone her fellow guests, earned her personal shout-outs form Gary Barlow and Fearne Cotton and led Bon Iver's Justin Vernon to ask her to support them on their North American tour. It was a victory that was a long time coming for La Havas.
"I started singing when I was about seven," she says, "which may have been inevitable in my house. My dad was a musician, he plays everything. He loves jazz, and he'll find an instrument and force himself to be able to play it. So I guess I got that from him. Playing piano felt very natural to me, I used to work out melodies that I'd heard on the keyboard. And then I sang because it felt good. But I did it in secret and it wasn't until I was 13 and joined a choir that I sang in front of anyone. When I auditioned, I sang an MJ Cole song and my choir mistress stopped me mid-song and asked me, 'Where have you been hiding?!'"
But it was when she was in her late teens that she met a musical group of friends that inspired her to take up the guitar. Taking art "as a back-up plan", her new posse "introduced me to all this electronic music I'd never heard, and I started playing guitar and it was enticing. I felt the guitar more than the piano. I started writing more personal things, because I was inspired. And I made a lot of friends – and enemies," she adds.
Oh, do tell?
"Well, basically a lot of my songs are about someone I was with at that time. He was actually my drummer for a short period of time, and 'Forget' is about him."
Does he know?
"Oh, he knows! But he's very forthcoming in admitting that he treated me badly and respects my need to express myself through music."
Your lyrics say, "Spend all your time writing love songs/but you don't love me." He must have written songs for you too then?
"Well, he says he did, but I think that they were about a few girls!"
We're glad you're shot of him, so.
"So am I!"
However he did do one thing right, as it was this bad boy that helped La Havas record some demos and put them on MySpace, where she was discovered at 19. And after working as a backing singer for Paloma Faith for 18 months, she was finally signed as a solo artist by Warner Bros. But – perhaps having learned from her experience with pushy men – La Havas wasn't intimidated by the label, and fought them when they wanted to change her style.
"With 'Forget', I first recorded it with David Sitek from TV On The Radio and we did a version that had a lot of his sound on it. Because I was on a development deal with the American Warner Bros., it seemed like it wasn't what they thought I should sound like. I refused not to play it, and would always play it live. And the version that's going to be on the album is one that me and my producer Matt Hales [from Aqualung] worked on, taking the vocal takes of Dave's version and creating a version that shows how my sound has developed. And I'm so proud of it, because the sentiment of the song is important to me. I'm glad I dug my heels in!"
Lianne admits that Warner Bros.' less than enthusiastic response rattled her.
"I was thrown, because I was excited about it and their reaction wasn't great. So I got very down, I was writing a lot of stuff I wasn't happy with, wasn't playing the guitar, and I think I was also too comfortable in my relationship. I don't think artists always have to be in pain to write good music, but you do need to feel whatever you're feeling strongly – happiness, hurt, whatever. You need to have passion and I didn't."
But one sure-fire way to get out of a funk? Have Californian lo-fi beat junkie Shlohmo remix some of your songs.
"I love the 'Forget' remix! It's so cool seeing him put his spin on it, it's all edgy and ethereal. It's a pity I haven't met him, I'd thank him! It's great that people are blogging about it and bringing my stuff to a new audience, so I'm well happy with that."
More than Schlohmo though, La Havas credits Matt Hales for her success, likening their first encounter to (musical) love at first sight.
"The process of finding a producer and songwriting partner is bizarre, it's like being on a blind date where you're hoping to have a baby with them!" she laughs. "I met Matt three years ago and he was the first person I ever wrote with. It was the most fulfilling experience, and we're now great friends because of it. Which I think has to be the case. Because it's such a personal thing – for me, anyway - to write a song, to say what's deep in your heart. So I think we were so lucky to have met each other that day and I'm so proud of our baby, the album!"
So tell us about this baby then.
"Well, of course there are a lot of love songs about my current boyfriend, who I've been with for over three years and is beautiful. Then there are a couple of hate songs! And then there's a lot of songs about self-love, about me trying to figure out myself, ones directed at the past and the present. Identity is huge for me. My whole problem in the first place, when I was 19 and writing all these songs was that I didn't know myself. Like, I used to change my handwriting all the time, it's bizarre! My mother used to do it too, it's some bizarre genetic quest for perfection! But I feel like through my songwriting, I've discovered who I am – or at least am close to finding it, to tasting true happiness and being at ease with myself."
And as for who she will be in the future, La Havas has big plans.
"I aspire to be like confident women who know themselves – Ella Fitzgerald, Lauryn Hill, Jill Scott, Nina Simone. Their voices made me want to sing, to want to be able to sound exciting. They gave me the need to sing. I'd like to give that gift to someone."
Lianne La Havas' debut album Is Your Love Big Enough? will be released in July. She's back in Dublin for an Academy show on May 9

It is time to pull out of Chicago. By responding to the murders there, we are only emboldening a new generation of murderers. Needless to say, this is the Magic Negro's district. Well done!
Nearly 125 Shot Dead In Chicago Over Summer
Total Is About Double The Death Toll In Iraq
CHICAGO (CBS) ― An estimated 123 people were shot and killed over the summer. That's nearly double the number of soldiers killed in Iraq over the same time period.
In May, cbs2chicago.com began tracking city shootings and posting them on Google maps. Information compiled from our reporters, wire service reports and the Chicago Police Major Incidents log indicated that 123 people were shot and killed throughout the city between the start of Memorial Day weekend on May 26, and the end of Labor Day on Sept. 1.
According to the Defense Department, 65 soldiers were killed in combat in Iraq. About the same number were killed in Afghanistan over that same period.
In the same time period, an estimated 245 people were shot and wounded in the city.
Tracking Summer Shootings In Chicago
The South Side's Englewood District, which includes the Englewood and West Englewood neighborhoods on the city's South Side, fared the worst over the summer. A total of 14 people were shot dead there, and 48 were shot and wounded.
The next highest totals came in the Grand Crossing District, which includes the South Shore, Woodlawn, Park Manor and Grand Crossing neighborhoods on the South Side, 12 people were killed and 31 were injured.
Also hit severely by gun violence over the summer was the Ogden District which includes the Near Southwest Side's Lawndale and Little Village neighborhoods where 10 people were killed and six were injured.
The South Chicago District on the Southeast Side saw nine people killed and 11 injured, almost all concentrated in the South Chicago and Avalon Park neighborhoods at the north end of the district.
The West Side's Austin District saw also saw nine people killed and 12 injured, while the Far South Side's Calumet District including the Roseland, Fernwood and Pullman neighborhoods saw eight killed and 20 injured.

Stayed in site 157, site is secluded with bushes on three sides. Park is very quiet and clean unless your in one of the sites next to the street and railroad. Our site was far enough from both that we didn't notice them. Entrance road is a little tight for long RV's, ours is 35', the longest allowed in the park. If not careful you will hit the curb. Roads in the park are plenty wide enough for long RV's. All site parking pads are fairly level asphalt the remainder dirt. Only a few sites have full hook ups, none that a long RV will fit in. There is a double sided dump station with faucets to fill you drink water tank. We didn't use the restrooms, showers, or laundry the four days we were there. Beach access is mostly by stairs, but at the south end of the park you can walk straight to the beach without stairs. The store is well stocked. We like Bull Tacos inside the park, although a little pricey, tacos are good, especially when they have exotic meats. Their breakfast burrito is excellent. We'll be back in the fall. - National RV Dolphin

The welcome at the entrance was good. At first we were given a flooded site with a fence between us and the road. The charge for this was $35, for dry camping. We asked for a better site (not flooded), and we settled into a site overlooking the water, on a bluff, with a fence. The charge for this was $50, for dry camping. Each morning we had to check to see if we could stay in our site that night. We had to move once in a three night stay, but that was easy with no hook-ups. The sites were not raked or cleaned between tenants. The sites overlooking the ocean were a good size, but the sites by the road were very small. We were never offered a site with hook-ups, and we did not see any. (Admin note: full hookups are available) The campers were a nice mix of surfers and everyone else. We would not return because we did feel that the value for the price was questionable. - Vic and Marsha

Location , location, location . This section of the park was dry camping only as there are ' improvements ' going on supposedly in the sites with services during the off season . An excuse I think to allow the park and staff to rest but , wow , what a waste of state income . Spacious enough sites . Has the commuter train line and Highway 101 running right behind the campground which can be disruptive but not overly so . Watch the sun sink into the Pacific right from your door. Book early for front row . Very popular, especially with the surfing crowd . We would stay here again. - Airstream 25

We enjoyed our week here as it is a safe and decent campground for area visitors. It is not the kind of CG for lounging in your site, etc. The woman running the place is terrific and helpful. The main problem here is that there is no sewer hook-up, so come with empty tanks. If you stay for a week you will get honey bucket service at no additional fee. They come around 9 a.m. on Monday, Thursday, and Saturday. It is probably the best deal for camping on the entire San Diego coast. - nmunozjr

Very basic park with gravel drives and sites. Lots of big shade trees, clean and well kept. Quiet even though it was in between a busy street and the 5 Fwy. Owner/Host very friendly and accommodating. No sewer hookups but rest stop north on the 5 has two free dump stations. We stayed here for a dog show at Del Mar fairgrounds. Much better than the full hookup sites that we saw at the fairgrounds. We will stay here again. - MarvMarvs

Simple park, we were told where to park which did not accommodate our trailer due to the trees being too low (a/c unit) and too narrow for space which we could not open awning. The great thing was its close proximity to the beach and highway access. Diesel fuel stations close by not RV friendly. There are no sewer hook ups, but there is a mobile service which visits twice a week. Our trailer was 27' in length and the spot given should be for parking a vehicle. We had to park a certain direction with the door on the left into a tree and the slide on the right inches from the other tree. There were other spots available not sure why we had to be placed there. Parking our vehicle was difficult when other rigs were there. Having to wait on dump service before travel was not worth it for the time we spent. No fire pits all gravel but level. There are no restroom facilities no playground for children. - reymer

We were able to select a site with a view of the ocean and right next to the stairs to get down to the ocean. Felt nice and private. There are washing stations to rinse off your sandy feet as well. The showers cost tokens (which we were totally fine with), were nice and very private.
Generators are only allowed from 10am to 8pm which was unfortunate (we usually cook breakfast around 8am).
Very friendly, nice on-site convenience store (you can even rent body and surf boards).
Lots of people, hardly any vacant sites. The sites were large. - 10 Thompsons

We stayed in an ocean side site and the view was beautiful. Our site wasn't very level, but I think it was just that site as others looked fine. We were in a site with no hookups, but a water spigot was right across the street. In fact, water spigots and bath houses were plentiful throughout the campground.
The first night we were there, the people in the site next to us sneaked in outside guests and partied and played the radio til 1:00 in the morning. They were pretty loud but fortunately I was in a trailer and it wasn't too bad, but still rude and inconsiderate of other campers. I felt sorry for the people nearby camping in a tents and the people across from us who had little kids. To my surprise, early the next morning the park ranger evicted the party crowd, so beware, they do enforce quiet time rules. Other than that the campground was quiet and peaceful. It was a great place to walk on the beach and ride bikes. The restrooms were plentiful and cleaned often. It was relaxing watching the surfers and we saw dolphins and seals playing in the water.
Unfortunately, the next night it rained heavily and our campsite turned into a duck pond with 3 to 4 inches of water covering at least half of it. It was still raining heavily in the morning so we just packed up and left. So between the party crowd keeping us up and the rain, it wasn't the best of trips. I'd like to go back some day and try it again though. - Suru

This is an older park which is just a little shabby, but if you can get one of the ocean front sites. The views are spectacular. Many of the sites are so wide you can park your rig sideways or at an angle to the ocean. The sites are literally right on the edge of the bluff with a 180 degree ocean view right outside your door! This campground gets busy on weekends in the winter with families and groups of surfers, but it was not very noisy and never felt very congested because of the size of the sites and the openness on the ocean side. I imagine it is full all summer long. The sound of the ocean drowned out traffic and generator noise pretty well. I would return here in a heartbeat, but only on the ocean side. If I were on the other side of the road, I would rate it about a 6. - MrSunshine

Having read a review for another Oceanside rv park that mentioned in passing that Catalina was "an armpit" I went there with caution. Maybe not enough. The park is small and hard to maneuver around in. Half the sites are occupied by old mobile homes. Recent rains made some of the sites soft. I got stuck in one and had to get a tow truck to pull me out. After all that I managed to get a site and got hooked up. Utilities were at shared posts. I had to go over a fence to plug in for electricity. There are no restrooms or showers. The laundromat was clean. Most of the neighbors were friendly enough, although the wife heard a lot of screaming from an adjacent condo complex. Only good reason for staying was due to weather and the price. Other RV parks in Oceanside were over $40. Our rate was for Passport America. I would never have paid full rate for this park. If you have a small rig and don't mind the trailer villa atmosphere then give it a try. Just watch out for the wet spots. - Onemoretrail

We took our class "c" motor home for the holiday weekend. This is a great location near the beach and walking downtown. The staff was helpful and knowledgable about things to do in the area. We took the regional coaster train down to San Diego. Tight camping spots but great for families. Free root beer floats was a nice gesture by the park owners. - Hwy93

We have always wanted to try this park and got lucky with a last minute reservation. You are greeted by a very friendly and helpful staff. As a bonus, they have 24 hour security. The location is awesome! A 3 minute walk and you are on the sand looking at the ocean. You are also very close to a train stop if you want to go either direction up the coast. The park is tight but once in your spot, they offer plenty of room. We had no issues getting around in our 43' coach. Yes, the train is loud but after the first night, we didn't really notice it and we were against the back wall closest to the tracks. I wouldn't ever spend a season here but for a clean, safe, ideal location in SoCal, this place is perfect for a vacation. We would stay here again for sure. - longweekends
May 2016 - $70.00
The hosts where great! We had a reserved a site prior to our stay. When we arrived I did not want that site and asked for a site near the back by the dog walk, the host said no problem and had one of the hosts take us right to the site and helped me back right in. The walk to the beach is under the train track and through a small park, but well worth it , my wife had never seen the ocean and the beach was just what I hoped for, great sea shells and long sandy beach for walking. The sites are close to each other, but everyone was very nice. The only reason we gave 4 stars instead of 5 was the Internet was just plain terrible, and oh my gosh the train at 02 AM was just LOUD...really..LOUD. That said we will stay here again can't say enough about the staff, not one rude team member. - para566

We were there with a group, and the staff was very friendly and accommodating. The park itself is very clean and well maintained. A nice pet area.

We were just passing thru and stayed for 2 nights. Best rate we found for a site with hook-ups. The site was concrete with a picnic table and patio. We have a 37 ft motorthome and we fit, but it is tight. Full hook-up, but the cable is being worked on so we ended up using the dish. For a short stay it works for us because we are traveling thru so we don't need a lot of space. Plan on be gone during the day anyway. Train did not bother us, not much noise and I don't think it runs at night. - belanga

$82 a night is ridiculous! Good Sam brought the price down to $75 -- but hardly worth the price! When you're desperate for a place to stay, I guess that's what has to be paid. The park is cramped, has small sites, no parking, no walking area for pets (there is a small fenced area covered with sawdust-type bark). Lots of long-term residents (although not sure why that is!). We were required to park on our site which in turn requires us to push through foliage get to the street. Long-termers are allowed to park on the street which is going to make it extremely difficult to get out when we leave. Also, the noisy train was a real pleasure (not!). - retditto

This is a standard RV Resort. Sites are concrete and each has a tree and ground cover as well as a patio area and picnic table. (some leveling required as all of the sites are graded down hill, however, the park provides levelers).
Pool is clean and good size. There is also a very large Jacuzzi.
Bathrooms are large and clean. Showers were great!
There is a laundry room with soap machines, etc.
One of the reasons we stayed at this park is that it is located near all major highways and freeway systems. Close to shopping and restaurant's! - jmjack

This is a very nice RV park, but I wouldn't call it a resort. The park is quite clean and well maintained. There are few trees which are too small to provide shade. The roads are paved and the RV pad is concrete. Spaces are fairly tight and there is really not much space for chair or table. The RV pad is level side to side but lengthwise it has such a slope that the park provides leveling blocks. My front tires were a foot off the ground. The pad is barely wide enough for the RV; the slides overhang the planter on one side and the tiny sandy patio area on the other. The campsite has 20/30/50 electric but no picnic table or fire pit. The water is city supplied and fairly decent at about 60 psi. Basic cable is free. Internet wifi is free with a strong signal throughout the park; good enough to stream. The laundry is small with 3 machines, but in good condition. The showers are clean and in good condition; did not use. There is a small pool with spa. The office staff is a helpful young lady who is quite friendly. The park has a few activities, but it's such a small park that events really aren't very feasible. The park is located in a city and close to anything you could want. Noise, even from the commuter train, is minimal. Traffic is always an issue when going anywhere. This is a pleasant park to stay at for doing things in the area, but not as a destination park, unless you're just looking for a place to live. - Wiyndog

We have a premium site on the top level and it is great. Easy to back in, level concrete pad, our own area with table & bar-b-que. Really nice. We overlook the hills.

We decided to try this park for one night based upon past reviews but quickly found out that this is by no stretch of the imagination, a "resort". We made a reservation and were told it depended on the day we arrived as to what the rate would be. And when we did arrive we found that the space that was assigned to our Class A full slide Motorhome was not near wide enough and backing in would have been a not so good experience. So I went back and got another space on the "upper level". A tad bit longer and wider that the first one we were able to back in and get hooked up. Then we noticed the neighbors next to us who had their laundry out to dry on racks scattered around their RV. Kids bikes and various toys scattered everywhere and one bike I had to move before attempting to back in. No table or bench available and just the basic hookups were there to use. Whatever this park was supposed to have been in the past is no longer what it has become today. A major rip off for what you get IMNO. Will never stay there again and if you are in the area and thinking about staying there my advice to you is to "drive on" and find something else. - BankShot

This place just is not worth it anymore. Third time we have stayed here and will not be back. Very high fees, our price was monthly. Have to pay for wifi, this is ridiculous in high end parks. Staff wanted to charge me for notifying me when a package arrived. Wanted me to pay for "mail service." Seems that new people have taken over and the parent company is trying to nickle and dime every fee possible. Park is centrally located but that is not enough any longer. Staff this year compared to last year is very different, last year friendly and helpful. Now, just the opposite. Will not return. - sd1209

Make sure you have directions to campground because it's hard to find. PPA was only good for 2 of 4 nights. Very tight, but level sites. Train & I-5 noise. Nice pool & spa. Lots of long terms. Doesn't deserve resort name. - russ1102

If you like freeway noise on one side of a park and train noise on the other than this park is for you! Sites are narrow and the freeway noise is awful! Train not so bad since they are fast Amtrak trains, not a lot of whistle blowing. Laundry room was clean but had to purchase a card to operate the machines. $5.00 deposit was refunded when card was returned. Park is located in a canyon with a lovely name, Rose Canyon, but this spot is not lovely. we left after 4 nights and moved to another park in the area that was cheaper and a much better environment. - Rick & Karen

We booked for a month and regretted it the entire time. Dog run is next to drainage / stream which is posted "beware of snakes", so dont let your dog loose. The same area is riddled with poison oak, so again, dont let your dog loose. Lots of dirt, pads are concrete, street is asphalt. Large percentage of full time residents with large amounts of "stuff" outside. Think sanford and son. We have picked up 2 grocery bags of droppings, as the park and owners of the dogs dont clean up after themselves. This park is way over priced. - ontheroadallthetime

Elks only. Park has gotten rundown and not very clean. Many year-round people staying here and the junk around these RVs is very apparent. 30 amp power is marginal, I read 110v many times when the EMS would kick off. Not worth it even at the $23.00 price. - sd1209

An Elks lodge RV park for members only. Large level lot with gravel. Average spacing between rigs. Dump on site, wheeled cart (blue boy) available for dumping without moving. Near Legoland. Host on site. Near shopping, 1 mile to beach. - Bucky Beaver

In TW, foreigners don't get blacklisted or banned individually, but there has been 2 major IP blocks for North America. If you haven't noticed yet, the IP block for TW left a sour taste in my mouth.
KR, well once might be luck but more than 5 times isn't a coincidence. I learned some of the words and type them to enforce room rules. A lot of people know that I'm not Korean, but some have pm'ed me saying thanks for learning Korean and being part of the community. The only thing I've seen that piss Koreans off is that players don't follow the room rules, just keep switching into other suits that are banned and wasting time. That's when the infamous "go home china" line kicks in.
IP block was reasonable, seeing how the registration was easy as heck. Even the full membership program used to be a joke registration that allowed you to register quick. They're stepping it up making their residents have priority over the overseas players.
I will disagree with your lucky breaks from speaking english. If that applied to you, then that doesn't explain the other blue locks and accounts being banned. Just because it applies to you, does not automatically apply to other people. I won't disagree with some of the things you say though, it's just that every KR account is a ticking time bomb and was illegally obtained. There should be some moral thing applied here but I'm not going to bother with that.
I don't love NA, but it's certainly better to stay away from certain people.
This is going to be wall of texts all over again and the topic is going to get derailed as usual.

Health Benefits of dancing?
If you needed a good reason to come and join us how about this recent research from Western Sydney University's School of Science and Health. See – news for the ABC Report. The main claim is that dancing lowers risk of heart disease for people aged over 40 who dance by almost 50%.
Forty Years of Morris Dancing
In 2014 we celebrated 40 years of Morris Dancing by having an Ale and also dancing in Hay Street (where the 1st dance out occurred back in March 1974). In a preliminary planning meeting in 2013 leading up to the events of our 40th year, Dr Bill Parker kindly volunteered to put together a book to capture our history. After a lot of work – here it is!
Merry Christmas (2015) and Happy New Year (2016)
The Perth Morris Men would like to wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
It has been another big year for us and the highlight has got to be the England Tour (scroll down for details.) or click UK Tour.
On the home front we haven't exactly been slack either dancing at Fairbridge Festival, Guildford Heritage Festival, Moondyne Festival, Mandurah Crab Festival, Zig Zag Festival and a couple of Best of British events as well as a St George's Day function to name a few.
Click on picture below to enlarge.
UK Tour – a great success
The recent UK Tour was a great experience for all concerned. For a brief overview see Event Itinerary. For some photos – see UK Photos and for some videos – see UK Videos.
Firstly we experienced great hospitality and a well run Ring meeting at Thaxted. Some of the highlights of that weekend, as well as "dancing in" to gain full membership of the Morris Ring include performing the Offertory dance at Thaxted Church on the Sunday morning. Refer to the Morris Ring's Bagman's Newsletter for more details of the weekend – see Newsletter No 95. More reports about the weekend (& our involvement in it) can be found in the Morris Ring Circular No 72
After the Thaxted weekend our next stop was Nottingham where we danced with the Foresters Morris Men. The weather for that evening may have been wet but we were warmly welcomed by our host.
Next (Morris) stop was Norwich where we danced with the Kemp's Men outside the Cathedral and then outside the Ribs of Beef.
Next stop was Shere near Guildford where the Pilgrim Morris Men made us very welcome at the White Horse and also the William IV in Little London.
Finally it was off to Wrotham for the Hartley Ale and the Hartley Morris Men did an excellent job with the organisation of a great event. As well as lots of good dancing the voices got a bit of exercise too culminating in a singing session in Penshurst Place.
Merry Christmas (2014) and a Happy New Year (2015)
It has been a huge 40th Anniversary Year for us. Some of the highlights include a 40th Anniversary Dance with the Fair Maids of Perth and the Mad Tatters Morris in Hay Street in March, dancing as a display side in Canberra at Easter and holding a 40th Anniversary Ale in September. As well as this there were other events such as the annual "Down South Tour", Fairbridge Festival, Moondyne etc.
Perth Morris Men 40th Anniversary Ale – a big success
The 40th Anniversary Ale was a resounding success. As can be seen from the picture above and following this hyperlink Ale quite a few sides were represented. Also see – Flyer_Forrest Place_Final
Before the Ale there were well wishes from other sides including this card from Nor'West Arch – see Happy Anniversary from_NWArch Also well wishes came from as far away as the Forrest of the Dean Morris Men (Thomas Mockford) – See Stein and from closer to home this card from the Mad Tatters Morris (a Perth Border side) – see Happy 40th from Mad Tatters Morris
Lots of good feedback was received and typical of the feedback is this one received from the Squire of the Australian Morris Ring (Tim Beckett)- see Tim's_Feedback
To see what the Adelaide Morris Men thought of it – see Headline
For Bill Parker's report on the Ale see – What do you do when you are 40?
For some Photos – see Photos
There was a requirement to present Limericks at the Ale itself. Neil, Marilla and 5 year old Lucy Cooper from Red Raven contributed the following:
And from Adelaide Morris Men – AMM_2014
Visitor from Forest of Dean Morris
On Wednesday 12th of March, 2014 we had a couple of visitors. Thomas Mockford of Forest of Dean Morris Men and Anne attended practice. Thomas taught us a dance and we taught him one of ours.
During the evening because this year is our 40th Anniversary Thomas presented our Squire with a collectors item – a stein that was made for the 40 year Forest of Dean Morris Festival. A card was also presented from the Forest of Dean.
(Click on image to enlarge)
For the Forest of Dean Morris Men – see http://www.forestmorris.org.uk/ Anne is involved with Wimberry Clog
Merry Christmas (2013) and Happy New Year (2014)
We would like to wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
It has been a reasonably busy year for the Perth Morris Men and by the time the year is over we will have danced in public on fifteen occasions in WA as well as two interstate events. The National Folk Festival at Easter as a "busking" side and the following weekend in Adelaide as guests of the Adelaide Morris Men at the English Morris Ring meeting. This is how our year unfolded:
- "Down South Tour" – Australia Day long weekend – visited Bush Shack, Duckstein, Cowaramup & Colonial Breweries
- Perth Medieval Fayre – 16th of March
- Guildford Heritage Festival – 24th of March
- National Folk Festival – Canberra – Easter
- Morris Ring Meeting – Adelaide – 5th to 7th of April
- Gloucester Park – Best of British – 19th of April
- Sovereign Arms – St George's Day – 21st of April
- Woodvale Tavern – St George's Day – 23rd of April
- Fairbridge Festival – 27th of April
- May Day in Kings Park
- St Ives Aged Care Murdoch – 17th of July
- Gracewood RACF – 31st of July
- Little Creatures Beer Launch – 12th of September
- Fund Raising Sausage Sizzles at Bunning's Claremont on 6th of October and 9th of November
- Combined Covens Social Club – 13th of October
- Zig Zag Festival – 27th of October
- Growers Green Farmers Markets – 1st of December
So it is time to relax and put our dancing feet up to recover ready for next year which may be equally busy as we celebrate our 40th year!
All the best for the season from the Perth Morris Men

The Art of Dissent: Adventures in London's Olympic State
29 October 2012
This new book, edited by Hilary Powell and Isaac Marrero-Guillamón, brings together a body of work that has emerged in response to the arrival of the Olympics in East London.
Hilary Powell (AHRC Fellow at the Bartlett and UCL Urban Lab Steering Committee member) and Isaac Marrero-Guillamón (Birkbeck College), bring together a body of work that has emerged in response to the arrival of the Olympics in East London.
Featuring contributions from a range of artists, film makers, photographer and writers including Stephen Gill, Iain Sinclair and Ben Campkin (UCL Urban Lab Director), the book brings together artistic and cultural projects that emerged in response to the London 2012 Olympics and the associated large-scale regeneration of East London. It intervenes in the dominant discourse, language and images surrounding the Games, engaging critically with the changing landscape of the Lower Lea Valley. Land grab, displacement, militarisation, privatisation, sponsorship and branding are explored through essays, photography, film, poetry, fiction and installation art, presenting a unique contribution to the debate around the politics of urban space and regeneration through an interdisciplinary range of work.
The Art of Dissent is now available to buy directly through Central Books or at many associated events over the summer, including 'Picturing the Olympics', a panel discussion on the relationship between images and the city in the context of the London 2012 Olympics. Co-chaired by Ben Campkin and Rebecca Ross (Urban Lab International Advisory Board member) in collaboration with the editors, the event will take place at 6.30pm, Thursday 21st June at Birkbeck College, Room B20.

Open Data Center Alliance focuses on big data collaboration
The Open Data Center Alliance, a group of 12 major IT users, is collaborating with industry on big data architectures
This Article Covers
Data centre
The Open Data Center Alliance (ODCA) has created a working group to support IT managers building and supporting big data applications.
The Data Services Workgroup aims to help IT departments implement databases for near real time business analysis and decision support. It will also aim to drive interoperability among big data frameworks and traditional business intelligence (BI) providers, the working group stated.
Defining the datacentre needs of 21st century enterprises
A collection of our most popular articles on datacentre management, including: Cloud vs. Colocation: Why both make sense for the enterprise right now; AWS at 10: How the cloud giant shook up enterprise IT and Life on the edge: The benefits of using micro datacenters
By submitting your personal information, you agree that TechTarget and its partners may contact you regarding relevant content, products and special offers.

The alliance is led by a 12-member steering committee which includes BMW, Capgemini, China Life, Deutsche Bank, JPMorgan Chase, Lockheed Martin, Marriott International, Disney Technology Solutions and Services and UBS.
As part of its charter, the alliance will collaborate with big data companies including Cloudera, Hortonworks and MapR Technologies, and data management providers including Teradata and SAS.
Workgroup members will develop reference architectures and proofs of concept implementations for commercial distribution to test deployments. These will be developed into products and services for the enterprise market. The alliance will also collaborate with the open source community to drive benchmarking suites.
"Through our discussions with customers, we have identified a common need for more industry best practices on when and how to implement new data solutions and what critical skill sets will be needed," said Marvin Wheeler, chairman of the ODCA.
"By working with end users directly in the ODCA we can share our experiences and start documenting tools to enable more companies to benefit from business intelligence transformation within their enterprise."
Last year the ODCA launched a competition to encourage best practices in cloud computing.

I need to use some of the newly added functions of kafka 0.8. However, in
our system,
we support scala 2.9.2. I build my code together kafka 0.8 and scala 2.9.2
and I got alot
of runtime issues, one of them is:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:
at kafka.producer.ProducerConfig.<init>(ProducerConfig.scala:29)
I google searched and it seems there are also some people complaining about
the same
issue but no real solution to it.
Is kafka 0.8 compatible with scala 2.9.2? Can kafka 0.8 provide a build
with scal 2.9.2?

a ./sbt clean update package. It seems to build and run fine for me.
I would check the classpath to see if there are conflicting versions of

I have tried to build trunk and 0.8 branch today for the first time but
1. When using sbt clean package there are some minor warnings but it
completes, however trying to run the server from packaged bin it exits with
class kafka.Kafka not found.
2. When trying to use scala maven plugin, with which I can build 0.7.x
branches (dependent on scala 2.8.0), after some tweaking of the generated
kafka-core pom and having all dependencies I can't compile - get a type
mismatch for Unit found zk Stat - has anybody tried to build 0.8 core only
jar with maven ?
Not sure what I'm doing wrong as my understanding of scala versions and sbt
is minimal.

In this tutorial you will learn about Installing SSL Certificate (Secure Server Certificate) to secure communication between Postfix SMTP server and mail client such as Outlook or Thunderbird.
Malware is used for a malicious purpose. It can be in your software or hardware. Email and pirated software is the most powerful way to spread malware. Malware inserted in a system without user notification.
[click to continue…]
Postfix is free and powerful MTA. You can easily configure Postfix to block spam. You need to add
following directives to /etc/postfix/main.cf file:
=> disable_vrfy_command = yes : Disable the SMTP VRFY command. This stops some techniques used to harvest email addresses.
=> smtpd_delay_reject = yes : It allows Postfix to log recipient address information when rejecting a client name/address or sender address, so that it is possible to find out whose mail is being rejected.
=> smtpd_helo_requi
red = yes : Require that a remote SMTP client introduces itself at the beginning of an SMTP session with the HELO or EHLO command. Many spam bot ignores HELO/EHLO command and you save yourself from spam. Following lines further restrictions on HELO command:
smtpd_helo_restrictions = permit_mynetworks,
reject_non_fqdn_hostname, Reject email if remote hostname is not in fully-qualified domain form. Usually bots sending email don't have FQDN names.
reject_invalid_hostname, Reject all bots sending email from computers connected via DSL/ADSL computers. They don't have valid internet hostname.
You can put the following access restrictions that the Postfix SMTP server applies in the context of the RCPT TO command.
=> smtpd_recipient_restrictions =
reject_invalid_hostname, – Reject email if it not valid hostname
reject_non_fqdn_hostname, – Reject email if it not valid FQDN
reject_non_fqdn_sender, – Reject the request when the MAIL FROM address is not in fully-qualified domain form. For example email send from xyz or abc is rejected.
reject_non_fqdn_recipient, – Reject the request when the RCPT TO address is not in fully-qualified domain form
reject_unknown_sender_domain, – Reject email, if sender domain does not exists
reject_unknown_recipient_domain, Reject email, if recipient domain does not exists
reject_rbl_client list.dsbl.org, Configure spam black lists
reject_rbl_client sbl.spamhaus.org,
reject_rbl_client cbl.abuseat.org,
reject_rbl_client dul.dnsbl.sorbs.net,
Open /etc/postfix/main.cf file :
# vi /etc/postfix/main.cf
Set/modify configuration as follows
disable_vrfy_command = yes
smtpd_delay_reject = yes
smtpd_helo_required = yes
smtpd_helo_restrictions = permit_mynetworks,

reject_rbl_client dul.dnsbl.sorbs.net,
smtpd_error_sleep_time = 1s
smtpd_soft_error_limit = 10
smtpd_hard_error_limit = 20
Also force (highlighted using red color) Postfix to limit incoming or receiving email rate to avoid spam.

Q. My sendmail service is running under Linux and whenever I try to telnet it from other LAN IP, it gives connection refuse error. If I connect it from localhost it accept connection. I can only send mail from my server only. How do I force sendmail to accept mail from other hosts/LAN ips?
A. For security reason sendmail is by default configured to accept connection from local system (127.0.0.1). This should avoid open mail relay problem.
To allow connections from ALL hosts/LAN IPs open sendmail.mc file (login as the root):
# vi /etc/mail/sendmail.mc
Look for line that read as follows:
DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA')dnl
Comment or remove above line and insert new line that read as follows:
Above line will force to accept connection from any host. Save the file. Regenerate sendmail configuration file using m4:
# m4 /etc/mail/sendmail.mc > /etc/mail/sendmail.cf
Restart sendmail service :
# /etc/init.d/sendmail restart
Caution: You should configure firewall and other Sendmail Anti-Spam configuration control to avoid problems.

If you need to send an email with a text file (or binary file) as attachment using shell script or command prompt in Unix or Linux; try mutt – a terminal-based e-mail client for Unix-like systems.
