looky-loo review. breckenridge, colorado.
Tiger Run RV Resort is located in Breckenridge, Colorado and is the only campground close to all of the major ski towns, it's 5 minutes from downtown Breckenridge, 10 minutes or so to Frisco and just 30 miles to Vail. Since it's the only campground that is truly close if you want to RV camp, this is it. The resort is primarily purchased spots with log cabin mobile homes on them as you seen in above photos. The grounds and facilities are nice, a little pricey, we stayed in the cheapest they offer at $40/night (regular season, not peak) and these spots are at the very back of the resort with a little bit of a walk to the bath house and other amenities. It's beautiful, how can it not be surrounded by the Rocky Mountains?! and for convenience cannot be beat. The womens bathroom was under major construction while we were there with men working behind a plastic sheeted area, a little disconcerting but will be very nice when finished I'm sure. Overall a paws up.

new droid owner and after ten days mine will not go from horizontal to vertical any clue ? tia
Welcome to the forums! I hate bad news to start! haha
So it won't leave landscape? What happens if you get a phone call? Does the answer function also remain in landscape? Does the phone go to portrait once you answer a call? It should go to portrait if you go to dial a number, even if you're in landscape.
Could possibly be a defect with the accelerometer if it NEVER leaves landscape.
To fix your problem:
-Press the settings button (2nd from the left of the four buttons at the bottom of the touchscreen)
-Sound & display settings
-scroll down and check "Orientation"
Happy reading! Anything you ever need is on this forum
tried the hard reboot per Motorola tech and still no switch unless i open the slide?
ok finally got the time to go to Verizon they told me i would need to wait 30 days whats up with that and the phone is getting worse
does doa mean what i think it means?

Sergio, Tiger and Fried Chicken (Save Some for Fuzzy)
Posted in the Columbus Forum

Sergio Garcia at centre of 'racist' storm' after insulting Tiger Woods at European Tour gala dinner
Sergio Garcia is at the centre of a racist storm with Tiger Woods as the Spaniard insulted the world No 1 on stage at the European Tour gala dinner. Garcia and the American have been locked in a war of words since the 14-time major winner caused crowd noise to disrupt his swing at The Players Championship earlier this month. Earlier Garcia accused Woods of lying over his version of the incident. But in front of the entire Ryder Cup team at the European Tour's annual dinner, Garcia escalated the row. When asked by American compere Steve Sands how often he will invite Woods around for dinner at next month's US Open, Garcia replied: "We will have him around every night. We will serve fried chicken." The slur was an echo of Fuzzy Zoeller's infamous comments at the 1997 Masters. When asked about Woods winning his first Major, Zoeller said he would serve "fried chicken and collard greens or whatever else they serve" at the following year's Champions Dinner. García has refused to back down in his ongoing spat with Woods. The Spaniard is playing at the BMW PGA Championship for the first time in 11 years, meaning that every member of José María Olazábals winning side from Medinah are teeing it up in the European Tours flagship event. Yet García arrived in Surrey knowing that the enmity between him and Woods, which increased several notches at the Players Championship two weeks ago, would remain a talking point. Garcia was adamant that Woods could and should have done more to ensure that he was not distracted during an incident in the third round at Sawgrass and claimed that he was not the only professional who had a gripe with the 14-time major winner. This is not just one thing; this has been going on for a long time, García said.The problem is a lot of people dont want to say anything. Tiger can and will beat me a lot of times in tournaments but hes not going to step on top of me. Im not afraid of him. Tiger doesnt make a difference to my life. And I dont make a difference to his. At least Woods and García can agree on that score. When asked on Monday whether he intended to attempt a reconciliation with García, Woods gave a two-letter answer no. However, García said he would be happy to play with Woods at the forthcoming US Open or Open. You cant like everybody, he explained.There are people you connect with and people you dont and its pretty much as simple as that. He doesnt need me in his life, I dont need him in my life. This doesnt mean I cant play with him and, for sure, there would be a handshake. Hes just another player, obviously a good player, but its just when Im playing with someone I enjoy theres a bit more talking during the round. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/golf/europea... |

Mr. Woods is arrogant. A trait that will be your downfall in any sector of life, private or professional. Golf is, and has always been, a game of 'gentlemen,' with high integrity. So few scandals when it comes to the sportsman side of it, that the players will not, and should not, tolerate any infraction of any rules. As for scandals in their private lives, I honestly can not think of any others. Tiger's not on the scale of Jones, Nicholas (sp?) or Palmer, or even Trevino, in that he is not consistent in his game. He played some horrible rounds not making the cut. Buick dropped him. So he's resented by players and the public for those reasons. Nothing to do with his race. V.J. Singh has always been much admired and respected by the players and the public. So explain that. |
Judged: 2 1 1 You never disappoint. Acceptance has been an issue for Singh ever since a nebulous 1985 incident in Jakarta in which he was accused of altering his scorecard in order to make the cut at a tournament, an allegation he denies. At the mention of Singh's name last week one American Ryder Cupper sniffed, "Once a cheater, always a cheater. Golf has a long memory." http://thesandtrap.com/b/swing_thoughts/once_... |
"Where did I put my tiara?" Since: Dec 11 7,122 |
I have to disagree with you. Tiger brought golf to the forefront than any others that you mentioned. Obviously golf gets good ratings for TV or they wouldn't put it on for umpteen hours, same for car racing, yawn for both. There are scandals in all sports...to single him out is ludicrous. |

"animis opibusque parati" Since: Oct 12 8,051 Location hidden |
Judged: 1 Unsubstantiated. Like all the rest of your BS. FTA: And, Ernie Els follows up that article with some rather indignant rhetoric in defense of Vijay in Sports Illustrated a couple of weeks later: "Why would someone say that about Vijay as he triumphed in the Masters? Why would SI's article on the first major of the 21st century not confine itself to Vijay's magnificent victory? Why instead did the writer dredge up an unsubstantiated allegation about an event that may or may not have occurred 15 years ago?" |

He's about as funny as a dripping faucet. He's a washed up never was who can only get right wingers to listen to him. P.J. O'Rourke is funny but he's more of a right leaning libertarian. Denis Leary tilts to the right and he's funny but his first stand up bits were rip offs of Bill Hick's work and Bill leaned waaaayyy left. Now how many comedians and pundits does that leave? |

text: Bahrain has been criticized by international authorities and rights groups for abuse of prisoners and protesters by police. In April Human Rights Watch reported that Bahrain's police officers regularly abuse minor detainees [JURIST report] before transporting them to police stations. Other rights groups have made similar allegations concerning police brutality in Bahrain. Earlier in April Amnesty International issued its own report [JURIST report] alleging human rights violations continue in Bahrain despite reforms. Also in April four independent UN human rights experts called for the immediate release of Bahraini human rights defender [JURIST report] Abdulhadi Al-Khawaja, who is serving a life sentence for terrorism-related charges after being tried before the Bahrain military National Safety Court in June 2011. Special Rapporteur on human rights defenders Margaret Sekaggya expressed concern that Al-Khawaja's trial and sentence are linked to his legitimate work to promote human rights. Last year a Bahrain court sentenced four protesters to death [JURIST report] for their roles in the killing of two police officers committed during mass anti-government protests. Three others were sentenced to life in prison.

Headquarters | St. Paul, MN (1970–1981), Seattle, WA (1981–1988), and Houston, TX (1988–1996) |
The Burlington Northern Railroad (reporting mark BN) was a United States-based railroad company formed from a merger of four major U.S. railroads. Burlington Northern operated between 1970 and 1996.
Its historical lineage begins in the earliest days of railroading with the chartering in 1848 of the Chicago and Aurora Railroad, a direct ancestor line of the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railroad, which lends Burlington to the names of various merger-produced successors.
Burlington Northern merged with the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway at the end of 1996 to form the Burlington Northern and Santa Fe Railway[1][2] (later renamed BNSF Railway), which was owned by the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Corporation. That corporation was purchased by Berkshire Hathaway in 2009[3] which is controlled by investor Warren Buffett.
The Burlington Northern Railroad was the product of a March 2, 1970, merger that involved four major railroads: the Great Northern Railway, Northern Pacific Railway, Spokane, Portland and Seattle Railway and the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railroad as well as a few small jointly owned subsidiaries owned by the four. The merged railroad was initially going to be called Great Northern Pacific & Burlington Lines.[4]
Although the four railroads shared common ownership (including the headquarters building in Saint Paul, Minnesota) from the days of the James J. Hill era, the four railroads previously had unsuccessfully attempted four mergers to unify the Hill Lines: 1896, 1901, 1927 and 1955. Surprisingly the merger was finally approved in 1970 even though a challenge occurred in the Supreme Court, which reversed the result of the 1904 Northern Securities ruling.
To further expand the Burlington Northern, a single track was constructed in 1972 into the Powder River Basin to serve various coal mines. On November 21, 1980, the St. Louis - San Francisco Railway was acquired, giving the railroad trackage as far south into Florida. By 1981 however, the holding company of the railroad, Burlington Northern, Inc. relocated headquarters from Saint Paul, Minnesota to Seattle, Washington and spun off all non-rail operations to Burlington Resources in 1988.
In 1971 BN/C&S/FW&D carried 64116 million revenue ton-miles of freight; in 1979 the total was 135004 million.[5] Most of the increase was Powder River coal from Wyoming, a fount of traffic unprecedented in United States railroad history, and one which BN had to itself until 1984.
On September 21, 1995, the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway merged with the Burlington Northern to create the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway. However the merger was not official until December 31, 1996, when the a common dispatching system was established, Santa Fe's non-union dispatchers were unionized and the implementation of Santa Fe's train identification codes systemwide.[2] On January 24, 2005, the railroad shortened its name to BNSF Railway.[1]
The Burlington Northern traversed the most northerly routes of any railroad in the western United States. These routes started at Chicago, Illinois and ran west-northwest to La Crosse, Wisconsin. From here the routes continued northwest through Minneapolis and St. Paul, Minnesota to Grand Forks, North Dakota. From Grand Forks the routes ran west through North Dakota, Montana, and Idaho to Spokane, Washington. The former GN routed through North Dakota/Northern Montana, crossing the continental divide at Marias Pass, while the former NP line routed through the southern part of Montana (which was spun off to Montana Rail Link in 1987), crossing the continental divide at Mullan and Homestake Passes. At Spokane the routes split into three. The former Great Northern route ran west to Wenatchee, Washington, crossed under the Cascade Range at New Cascade Tunnel on Stevens Pass, and descended to the Puget Sound region through Everett, Washington. The former Northern Pacific turned southwest towards the Tri-Cities, then northwest to Yakima, Washington, and crossed under the Cascade Range at Stampede Tunnel, descending to the Green River Valley at Auburn, Washington where it connected with existing NP lines from British Columbia to Portland, Oregon. The Spokane, Portland and Seattle ran southwest to the Tri-Cities then followed the north bank of the Columbia River to Vancouver, Washington.
With the acquisition of the St. Louis – San Francisco Railway the route was extended into the South Central and Southeastern United States.
Transport Statistics shows BN operated 23609 miles of line and 34691 miles of track at the end of 1970;[6] it shows 4547 SLSF miles of line not including QA&P and AT&N. At the end of 1981 BN showed 27374 miles of line and 40041 miles of track.[7]
Equipment Colors and Painting[edit]
The livery of the Burlington Northern traces its history to Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railroad. EMD GP40 #629 was painted in a green, black and white scheme that introduced the BN's lettering and logo. The green color was later known as Cascade Green due to the reflections of pine trees and nature along various routes the trains of the CB&Q traveled.[citation needed]
As the final approval of the merger was approaching the Spokane, Portland and Seattle Railway purchased 6 EMD GP38s in February 1970 that were delivered in the Burlington Northern paint scheme.
By the 1980s the locomotives and rolling stock had an unfortunate habit of camouflaging into the scenery and causing accidents at railroad crossings. In late 1984 the BN commenced the High Visibility study which applied orange and black nose stripes and orange along the cab face on one locomotive followed by two new orders of locomotives: EMD SD40-2, EMD GP50, and EMD SD60 respectively. By 1987 the study did not show vast improvement of the locomotive's visibility and was dropped.[8]
In 1989 the BN reactivated its High Visibility study, trying more white paint on the nose and cab face. The first unit, GATX Rebuild EMD GP40 #3079 emerged in April 1989[9] with a white cab face, end-sill stripes, and a large BN logo applied on the nose; dubbed White Face this scheme proved to be a success with only a minor change occurring in 1991 with the application of a two-inch wide separator stripe.[10]
In October 1990 BN departed from its Cascade Green, black and white scheme on its business car and locomotive fleet. Adopting Grinstein Green (an altered version of Brunswick Green/British Racing Green and named after the president of Burlington Northern, Gerald Grinstein), Cream, and Alizarin Red. This scheme was applied to EMD F9A-2 #BN-1, EMD F9B-2 #BN-2, and EMD E9A-2 #BN-3, of the locomotive fleet and the business car fleet. In November 1993, brand new EMD SD70MAC #9401 received the Executive colors, making a departure from the standard Cascade Green, White & Black scheme. This trend continued only on the EMD SD70MAC's until BNSF #9837.[11]

Preserved equipment[edit]
Burlington Northern 1 and 2, formerly Northern Pacific Railway 6700A and 7002C, EMD F9s, were built in 1954 and later rebuilt by BN for special train service. They are currently owned by the Illinois Railway Museum and are on display in Union, Illinois.
Environmental record[edit]
A Burlington Northern tie treating plant was responsible for the Burlington Northern (Brainerd/Baxter) United States Environmental Protection Agency Superfund site, located between the cities of Brainerd and Baxter in Crow Wing County, Minnesota.[49] The tie treating plant operated on the property between 1907 and 1985 and treated railroad ties with creosote and fuel oil. Wastewater generated from the wood-treating process was sent to two shallow, unlined ponds. This created a sludge which contaminated both the underlying soils and the groundwater with creosote and polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs).

Christine Quinn Calls Ray Kelly After Intern Faints at Event
City Council Speaker and mayoral candidate Christine Quinn was forced to call Police Commissioner Ray Kelly personally for help after an 18-year-old intern reportedly fainted in the heat at a press conference in Williamsburg.
According to reporters on the scene, Ms. Quinn was about half an hour into an event marking the seventh anniversary of the city's Fair Solid Waste Management Plan when one of City Councilwoman Diana Reyna's interns fainted and hit her head on the pavement. Read More

Delta WiFi
Delta plans to have WiFi on all its flights!
$10 for less than three hours, $12 for longer flights.
That is really pretty great, from my perspective. But how will they handle:
1. Access to power? Or will everybody have to bring extra batteries? That's
a lot of extra weight, and some fire risk.
2. Censoring content? Apparently, they are going to censor dirty stuff, stuff they think is dirty (I hope they cut out Keith Olbermann), and any kind of VOIP. There may be an arms race between cat and mouse. I guess this means Delta will be taking lessons from China on how to restrict internet sites. Ick.
3. Security? Sitting right there, so close, for hours. An enterprising scammer can buy tickets just for the purpose of stealing stuff, if it is all wireless.
Still, this would be very, very good.

"I purchased this for my shower invites and my thank you cards, all three were a matching set! I am so impressed! Less writing for me and a way cuter envelope! I'm writing the invite addresses with a pink pen...to cute!"
"I bought these to put on mini granola bars for Valentine's Day. They fit perfectly and I didn't have to try and write my daughter's name in the tiny spot they give you on the bar."
"First of all I have to say that the customer service was exceptional. I asked if they could help me format the address label where my name was on 1 line versus 2 and to edit the gap between the address. They emailed and told me they fixed it and the label looks great. They did such a great job and I love how the address label wasn't thin like many I've seen. The quality of the color and paper was great. The sticker comes off very easily. The address labeled matched the Watermelon Baby's 1st Birthday Invitations perfectly. Also, as an added bonus, they gave me the sample sheet so I got 6 extra address labels - Thanks!!"
"We used these address labels with our Thank You cards for our baby shower. We loved the simplicity but also the hint of baby. We received the item quickly and thought it was great quality."
"I ordered 6 different address label designs and was very pleasantly surprised by the paper quality of the labels - glossy and thick! I received lots of compliments from friends."

Great buy this Marmot Shirt
January 19, 2013
The Fleece Marmot shirt fits well, is warm and comfortable. Was expecting a much warmer shirt but this one is by far better than most fleeces in that you can wear it all day long indoors without overheating.
Pros: Great design, Build quality, Ease of use, Great valuevery warm / well fitting
January 22, 2011
marmot does it again. nice long sleeves, room in shoulders, and just the right thickness for warmth. with a dry fit t-shirt underneath this pull over is just right whether inside all day in a classroom or outside in sunny snowy day.
Pros: Great design, Build quality, Performance, Cons: CostMarmot quality
July 05, 2011
Cost a little more but has a few more bells and whistles, good for walking in the woods, not thick enough to keep you warm if you're sitting for long in cool weather. Looks nice with detailing.
Pros: Build quality, looks nice, Cons: CostLove Marmot Fleece!
January 21, 2010
Really warm so you can wear it by itself in 35 degree weather. It's also light enough that you can wear it under an outer layer. Very durable and longlasting. I've had another Marmot fleece that I've worn regularly for 6+ years.
Everyday pullover
December 14, 2011
This my go-to pullover when I wake up late for work and don't have time to think about what to wear. I usually grab it off the floor and it still looks great...well, good enough for government work. Goes great with jeans or casual pants. The large fits me really well at 6'3"/170. I ordered the fatigue and it is a little bit brighter than in the photo.
Pros: Build quality, Performance, Ease of useGreat Pullover
February 22, 2011
This pullover is fantastic for all conditions. It is light, but keeps you warm in cold weather and not too hot in moderate temps. It fits perfectly and is very well made.
Pros: Great design, Build quality, Great valueFebruary 28, 2013
Great quality, true to fit. Not too warm but definitely keeps one comfortable.
Great Fit and Quality
January 22, 2012
Bought the Men's Reactor half zip shirt in medium and usually wear a large in most items. It runs big, but fits slim; so if you are slim it works well. Has fantastic quality with great details. Very warm and easy to move around in. Will work as a fantastic layer under a jacket or just on its own during the spring and fall seasons. highly recommend it, but watch the size which you order, don't blindly order a large, just because that is what you wear with most products.
January 11, 2012
This is a great Mid-Layer. It's not too bulky so it fits nicely under all my jackets. This is my third Reactor Half Zip shirt. Please keep more colors coming!
Pros: Great design, Build quality, Lasts foreverMarmot Men's Reactor Half Zip Shirt
December 15, 2011
The Marmot Men's Reactor Half Zip Shirt (fleece) is great. I use it as my inner shell when I wear my Marmot Men's Palisades Jacket. However, if I would have known better I would've purchased the Marmot Warmlight Fleece (full zip) to 'Zip-In' to my jacket*. Overall the Marmot Men's Reactor Half Zip Shirt (fleece) is comfortable and stylish. MSL * Consequently, I have purchased the Warmlight from Altrec and am awaiting shipment to demonstrate, test and review it...

Too much is never enough me maties - and third times the charm as this final round of Pirates blasts out with battles, bloodshed, demons, maelstroms and pretty much everything you expect to see but increased to the nth degree. Which even includes a bevy of Captain Jacks to accompany new and established characters and a fight to the death (or so it might seem).
Pulling out all the stops means attention to detail, be they small planks of wood, background objects or Man-o-Wars - especially since HD doesn't forgive poor presentations. Fortunately that's not a problem here, regardless of whether the view is small or grandiose, the beauty found at the horizon as well as at sea being more than worth the price of admission. Plus the CG wheels have been greased till they sizzle, both with a brilliance of color along with darker hues; the view benefiting from a wide palette of colors washing over the ships, the seas and even the characters (although few of the Pirates are "pretty" enough to warrant the exquisite detail afforded to them) and for the most part, CG and "real" world coexist seamlessly (suggestion: dial back on the contrast a bit if the CG starts to "butt" against reality rather than blending into it).
Audio plays a vital role - not just to convey the minimal dialogue or grunts from that monkey - but in order to keep the faith by setting the mood and holding it on course. Nor would it be such a fun ride if the surrounds weren't firing broadsides. You've the choice of uncompressed 5.1 audio (PCM) or Dolby Digital 5.1 - and while PCM seems a bit better, overall either audio format provides a powerful platform for conveying the sound. Besides, you certainly don't watch this film with the volume low or the subwoofer turned down (without being rude, if you don't have a sub get one already, OK?).
And give a ration of grog to Disney for not just transferring the DVD features to this disc wholesale, but instead having them walk the plank of high-def. Plus adding BD-Java enhanced ones, such as an interactive look at the climatic sequence from the film. Then too there's the return of the Jolly Roger host to navigate us landlubbers through animated menus and respond to our actions through A.I. Pirate-laden humorous commentary.
But for those out there lamenting the less-than-happy ending for the romantic leads, just remember that good things come to those who wait…for the end of the credits, that is.

Richland Countys election debacle was a system failure by top election officials and the board that oversees the office, according to a preliminary report released Thursday.
A series of unfortunate assumptions, is how attorney Steve Hamm summed up his findings 30 days after the meltdown widely considered among the states worst.
Hamm spread blame to elections director Lillian McBride, her staff and the Board of Elections & Voter Registration.
Asked afterward if she felt exhonerated by Hamms report, McBride said no but would not comment further. She has been taking the bulk of angry voters criticism for the debacle.
No one asked the basic fundamental questions, Hamm said: How many machines are being distributed to the countys 124 precincts and did that number account for some 17,000 new voters McBrides office registered just this year.
Hamm repeatedly said that McBride, her staff or the board failed to catch the problems.
Hamm, hired by the board to get to the bottom of the election mess, also disclosed in his interim report that 102 votes from the Spring Valley West precinct remain uncounted four weeks after Election Day. He said he learned of them Wednesday.
Hamm also corroborated that 27 votes cast in the Lincolnshire precinct have not been counted.
Acknowledging voter frustration, Hamm said a final tally will take as long as it takes.
Moments after submitting his report, the board went into executive session behind closed doors. Its unclear if board members will take any disciplinary action against McBride or members of her staff.
McBride declined to comment on Hamms findings.
Hamm also said he knows which part-time staffer mistakenly drew up a new list that greatly reduced the number of machines to be delivered to the polls.
But Hamm would not release a name, citing Richland Countys personnel rules.
He said, however, he does not believe that male staffers assertions that he had McBrides authorization to make the change.
Among the still unanswered questions:
• How many emergency machines were distributed and where did they go?
• How many votes remain uncounted?
