Williams, Arizona
Canyon Motel & RV Park
[ 9/10 ]
Great location of this park. It is right off Hwy 40 easy on/off so if you want to visit Grand Canyon it is a straight 45 min drive. Only 3 miles from Williams. Quiet, no freeway noise. A few trains do pass by during the day but not noisy. You just hear the rumble. Park is nice and clean has a train theme along with the motel. Pull through was easy and lots of room. Check in was easy. Verizon and Mi-Fi worked great. We would stay here again.
Monument Valley, Utah
Goulding's Lodge & Campground
[ 8/10 ]
We stayed here for 3 nights. Staff was very helpful and friendly. We found our site to be a level, easy pull through. We were able to book tours at the office. Verizon worked good and Mi-Fi. Their Wi-Fi worked well also. We would stay here again.
Silver City, New Mexico
Elks Lodge 413
[ 8/10 ]
We stayed here for 4 nights. It is a large level gravel parking lot with full hookups and lots of room. Verizon and Mifi work great. Lodge has Wifi inside. Good views and is close to Silver City and other sights. You must be an Elks member to camp here. We paid $15 a night. No cable, but were able to use our air antenna for 1 station we picked up.
Willcox, Arizona
Elks Lodge #2131
[ 8/10 ]
We camped here for 2 nights. We were close to sights to see and old town Wilcox with you can walk to. Trains do go by about every 40 minutes but if you are tired enough you will sleep though most of the train noise. Nice large RV pull through sites and some back in sites. You must be a Elks member to say here. Dry camping is $10 and $15 for hook ups and the dump is by the lodge. We would stay here again. No reservations first come first served. Verizon and MiFi worked great.
Bakersfield, California
Orange Grove RV Park
[ 9/10 ]
We stayed here for 2 nites. Park is clean and the sweet smell of the orange blossoms. Our price with GS plus they take $2.00 additional off if you pay by check or cash. You usually get a bag of oranges to. Easy on/off hwy 40. Verizon and MiFi work good. We would stay here again.
Needles, California
Elks Lodge #1608
[ 6/10 ]
We stayed here two nights. The lodge and RV are on visa with nice views but the wind blows all the time at least when we were here. It is right off of hwy 40 so you get some noise. The sites are dirt pull-throughs and almost level. Close to Oatman and downtown RT 66 fame. We would stay here again. You must be an Elk member to stay here.
Tonopah, Arizona
Saddle Mountain RV Park
[ 9/10 ]
Nice park easy on/off hwy. Grounds very neat and clean, staff very friendly too! No cable tv for those of us who don't have our own. Wifi in office for free. Verizon and Verizon MiFi work great. Our price was Passport America. Good for overnight or even if want to stay a long term abut 45 min from Phoenix. Pool was locked out in late afternoon not sure why. Tennis courts are there too. We would stay here again.
Huachuca City, Arizona
Tombstone Territories RV Resort
[ 10/10 ]
I agree with the previous review. I can add that the park is out in the middle of nowhere. So no traffic noise is a very quiet park. All sites are pull throughs and they escort you to the site. The sites have table and are staggered with are nice with space between. Great location for the most attractions in the area. Our rate reflected the Passport America for 1 week. They are also a Good Sam club too. We would stay here again.
Fort Mcdowell, Arizona
Eagle View RV Resort
[ 8/10 ]
We stayed for 8 days. Was clean but our only complaint was of other campers walking through our campsite as it was a shortcut! As stated before close to casino and Fountain Hills. Verizon and MiFi was good. Would stay here again but in another location not close to the showers. Laundry is excellent!
Tucson, Arizona
Justin's Diamond J RV Park
[ 8/10 ]
Our rate included Passport America for 4 nites. Park is located out a bit but close to Old Tucson Studio, Titan missile 22 miles and other attractions. Staff very friendly. Sites are level and you get good views of the mountains. Verizon cell and MiFi work good. No cable. Antenna not so hot. The park is clean and neat. We would stay here again
Mojave, California
Sierra Trails RV Park
[ 7/10 ]
Great park very friendly staff. Lot of homemade crafts in office. Our rate was 13.25 Passport America for 1 nite. Great for 1 nite. Easy access. It is a desert location. Sometimes you get wind and dust. Verizon cell and Verizon MiFi worked great.
Burns, Oregon
Burns RV Park
[ 7/10 ]
The staff is friendly. Park is very nice. Lots of shade trees and sites are spaced nicely with lots of lawn. Had a bit of trouble with leveling at our site as not too level. Verizon air card worked great. We would stay here again. Rate included a GS $5.00 coupon.
Lakeview, Oregon
Hunter RV Park
[ 4/10 ]
Good for overnight. Out in the open lots of gravel some shade. Found power under, didn't feel comfortable using a/c or microwave. Per our power meter was right at the lowest level to be safe. You get 5 cents off gas or diesel at their pumps. One plus it is right off 395 about 2 miles north of Lakeside. we had move once as the site was not level at all. Good cable and Verizon air card worked great. Felt 30.00 a night a bit high compared to other campgrounds. This not a GS or any other group has Woodall's sticker on the door.
Pendleton, Oregon
Pendleton KOA
[ 8/10 ]
Nice park,clean,quiet. Great access to Hwy. Close to town. Great vista view from park. Staff was very friendly and helpful about telling us about the Pendleton area. We would stay here again. We planned on 1 nite but there is a lot to see in town. Verizon air card worked great too.
Clarkston, Washington
Hells Canyon Resort
[ 9/10 ]
Very nice park. Great Verizon air card and phone. Very clean and neat. Staff was very friendly checking in. Has a lawn and cement patio for your site. Pool and hot tub area is enclosed and you see the tiles on the walls tells a lot of history. This park of the Lewis and Clark trail and they have nice story stamped in the cement sidewalk. You can also get the jet boat trip right at the end of campground entrance very convenient. We stayed here 3 nights in a travel trailer. Oh one other thing the sites are set up you can pull in either way with connections on either side for you. Good power supply for A/C as it hot here this week. We would stay here again.
Bend, Oregon
Scandia RV & Mobile Park
[ 6/10 ]
We stayed here for a week for the Rally and to tour the area. Park is clean, except if you camped near the mobile home park. Some of those need to be cleaned up. Those residents leave early in the morning to work and some have barking dogs. If you camp here ask for the upper lot that is much more of the RV park. That is the picture in the website. We booked in March for our July stay and got in the mobile park, mid section. Wi-Fi is spotty: had to go the laundry room to get even the weak signal.
Coeur d'Alene, Idaho
Blackwell Island RV Park
[ 9/10 ]
We are here for 16 days. Great location for touring the surrounding areas. Sites are lots of space between rigs and green grass with picnic table. The way the sites are angled you are not sitting by the sewer hookups when outside. Nice new way to do a campground. Laundry room is good. The Wi-Fi can get bogged down when everyone is on. Staff is very helpful and the park is neat as a pin. River access is great too. They even provide chairs by the beach/river. Boat, kayak and canoe rentals are available. Only drawback is if your site is close to Hwy 95, which can be noisy.
Richland, Washington
Wright's Desert Gold Motel & RV Park
[ 5/10 ]
We stayed overnight, it's great for that. Not much room between rigs, no tables. Sites are uneven but do have shade. Grounds are very nice with pool. A lot of resident's trailers in the outside circle but it was quiet with no trains or hwy noise. We would stay here again. There is a motel on the other side of the park. Easy access to the hwys.
Canyonville, Oregon
Seven Feathers RV Park
[ 9/10 ]
Not to much to find wrong with this campground. Only 2 complaints: WiFi is weak as everyone is on and it cuts off/on we were there 5 days and 1 day I could not access at all. I used the office computer a couple of times. The enclosed pool, we did not use, as the chlorine smell was too strong for us just entering the room. Verizon worked good. Shuttle bus is great and timely even takes you into Cayonville. We would stay here again.
Coburg, Oregon
Eugene Kamping World RV Park
[ 7/10 ]
Easy on/off interstate 5. Close to Eugene/Springfield. Quiet no hwy or train noise. Lot of permanent residents on the grounds but they neat and tidy. WiFi, cable TV, Verizon all worked good. We stayed 2 nights and would stay here again.
Goldendale, Washington
Maryhill State Park
[ 9/10 ]
Very clean, lots of space between sites the area is one huge lawn and full of trees with shade. Problem is the train runs along the campground all day and all night and HWY 97 is on the downslope so you hear the trucks jake-brakes! You are right on Columbia River and next to hwy 97 bridge to cross over to Oregon. You need to make reservations ahead of time but they do take first come first serve for that night if site is available prior to 2:00 p.m. If nothing is available there is another campground right next door which we found out later. We would camp here again good for 1 night layover.
Leavenworth, Washington
Alpine View RV Park
[ 8/10 ]
Last review was pretty accurate except it was check yourself in. Someone comes in the afternoons and there is a caretaker, but is not here all the time. We did not see the reservation assignment list and went ahead and picked a spot and then had to move. Very noisy HWY during the day but is ok at night. You can get some TV on antenna, cell (Verizon) worked. WiFi was slow when everyone was trying to get on. We have XM radio and it was good in our location that we had to move to! The park is good location for the sites to see as you can walk or even bike to Leavenworth. We would stay here again.
Port Orford, Oregon
Port Orford RV Village
[ 10/10 ]
Great park, green grass at your site and picnic tables. Very clean and neat. The owners have taken pride and you see it. Verizon cell worked great and WiFi was fast and reliable. We stayed for 5 days and would come back here again.
Susanville, California
Eagle Lake RV Park
[ 7/10 ]
The park is way out there by Eagle Lake, not in Susanville. Park is clean, and stall is friendly.The squirrels are fun to watch; they keep you entertained! Great fishing location. If want peace and quiet this is the place! It is serene.
Hat Creek, California
Rancheria RV Park
[ 8/10 ]
This was our 2nd visit to the park. Park is clean. No cell phone service but wi-fi is available for 2hrs in a 12 hr period each day's stay. Very quiet.
Redding, California
Fawndale Oaks RV Park
[ 6/10 ]
The owners are very nice and very helpful. They seem to be doing all work themselves which is why projects seem to be unfinished. There is noise from Hwy 5 but it seemed to quiet down at night. Park has some residents, but is very quiet. Pool was clean, and we did swim. Location was good to Shasta Caverns, Shasta Lake, and Shasta Dam. It was about in the middle in either direction. We would stay there again.
Sparks, Nevada
Victorian RV Park
[ 7/10 ]
We were only here for 1 night. This ark seems to be full of long term leases. Staff was very friendly and the office closes at 5 pm. Perfectly easy to get on and off of interstate 80. Would use this park again for passing through, otherwise if we were staying longer: no. There was Wi-Fi for a fee.
Elko, Nevada
Double Dice RV Park
[ 5/10 ]
We stayed only one night. The sites were not level and all are gravel, and the campground is on a slight slope. At check-in, the staff was not friendly: when we went to give them our charge card, they had already accessed it! Wi-Fi is available for a fee. You can go into the kitchen/lounge area and use the office Wi-Fi. Which, for that day the internet was down. Staff was not helpful with that either. They were too busy and made you feel you were bothering them: no smiles or welcomes.
Thermopolis, Wyoming
Eagle RV Park
[ 8/10 ]
We stayed only one night. Staff was very friendly and our campsite was ok. We did not unhook: the staff helped out as to where to park at site. Overall it was a clean and nice park. We would return.
Custer, South Dakota
Big Pine Campground
[ 8/10 ]
This campground was good and our space was somewhat level: we backed into a open space. Staff was very friendly and helpful with directions. Wi-Fi was only available at the office which was a small problem.
Cody, Wyoming
Absaroka Bay RV Park
[ 8/10 ]
We found this campground quiet and clean, and the staff was very helpful. It's close to shopping and a city bus for $2.00 a day. Cody is so small you can get everywhere very quickly and the campground is out of the main other campgrounds. We would stay at this campground again.

Truth is, if there was solid evidence for the existence of God, it then would be a point of fact with no room for faith.
Therefore is it possible that the continued neutrality is being sustain by God for our benefit?
So the best thing god can do is to give a man cancer and then take it away?...Why not give the man a revelation about unique specific knowledge. I dont know. For example: Give the man the equations that would unite relativity and quantum mechanics. Or how about giving the man equations that would describe what happens inside a black hole, and the procedure on how to test it experimentally. Those are dramatic, extreme, and the type of knowledge that is not easy to make up.
@Eric - RE: "give a man cancer and then take it away" - instead of that, why not give the man the CURE for cancer --?
Jerod, assuming your stories are true, and I have no way of knowing that they are, in highly emotional situations, it is Human to attribute supernatural causes to natural, random events.
pax vobiscum,
It makes one feel special and that life is more mysterious and exciting than it actually is.
Most kids grow up believing in supernatural powers, like the tooth fairy, Santa Claus, and of course a whole lot of fictional beings and superheros on Saturday mornings. It used to be other gods that people believed in, even as adults. There were sun gods and moon gods before we learned about planets and moons, and there were gods in the sky that did all kinds of incredible things.
Before science, people had no other way to explain how things happened, other than by imagining supernatural powers. And we're not even talking yet about leaders who pushed and used people's beliefs in supernatural powers to rule over them.
I hear people say constantly "everything happens for a reason", as if it's supposed to profoundly explain something that is otherwise unexplainable. It's been like this for thousands of years, until science alone started to unravel the secrets of the universe and life. Science now achieves things that people of the past would have thought was pure magic or divinity, yet most people today just take it for granted, and don't even feel the need to understand any of it.
It's a whole lot easier to assume Goddidit than it is to actually learn about the vast complexities of the universe and life.
Papi - Neil DeGrasse Tyson said, "God is an ever-receding pocket of scientific ignorance, that gets smaller and smaller as time goes on."
Words to live by --
pax vobiscum,
Arch, nice quote.
The more of Neil I see, the more I like.
If that's the case, then God is a complete dick. And it seems weird that he'd be okay with huge civilizations like the Greeks believe in dozens of gods.
You premise is that faith is beneficial. It simply isn't, it keeps people in the dark and gives them false hope. A simple quote I think is really relevant: 'Good men will do good things, bad men will do bad things, but it takes religion to make good men do bad things'.
Even if god did exist, and revealed himself with evidence, I'm sure it would do a whole lot more for mankind than blind faith is doing at the minute!
Carl Sagan answers for you.
Great video, Gene - let's make it available for everyone!

text: This is the latest development in the ongoing reproductive rights controversy [JURIST backgrounder] in the US. The US Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit [official website] ruled [JURIST report] in August against an Arizona law [HB 2800, PDF] that disqualified health providers that perform abortions, such as Planned Parenthood, from receiving public funds. Also in August Planned Parenthood of Indiana and Kentucky (PPINK) [advocacy website] sued [JURIST report] the Indiana State Department of Health [official website] challenging a new regulation [text] that defined facilities prescribing Mifepristone as abortion clinics and required them meet regulatory requirements of surgical facilities, even when they do not provide surgical procedures. A similar bill, which passed in Alabama in April, has received criticism as a "back-door" attempt [JURIST op-ed] to circumvent a woman's right to abortion.

After a recount of more than 17,000 votes, incumbent John Darr will remain the Democratic nominee for Muscogee County Sheriff. Both Darr and Pam Brown were at the Government Center Thursday as the results of the recount were revealed.
Sheriff Darr said he can concentrate on November's General Election and he was relieved and happy with the numbers.
Election officials began recounting ballots from last week's Georgia primary races Thursday morning. The recount indicated Sheriff Darr won by 71 votes - the same figures counters came up with last week.
The recount was requested Monday by candidate Pam Brown after last week's results showed that she lost to the incumbent.
Brown told News Leader 9 she still wants to be a voice in the community. She also plans to run in the next sheriff election. Brown added she is confident these numbers are correct.
Sheriff Darr will go on to face Republican candidate Mark LaJoye in November.

American Swedish Institute
The American Swedish Institute is a vibrant arts & cultural center and museum. The historic Turnblad Mansion first became home to the organization in 1929. The Nelson Cultural Center addition opened in June 2012 and added a welcoming reception area, café, gallery, event center, studio arts classroom, terrace, courtyard, and expanded Museum Shop.
In 1908, the Turnblads—a Swedish immigrant family—completed the construction of their castle-like mansion on Minneapolis' Park Avenue. Just twenty-one years later, they gave it all away to the community, founding the organization that would become the American Swedish Institute.
Visitors can tour the Turnblad Mansion, enjoy exhibitions in the Mansion and Osher Gallery, experience contemporary Swedish and Nordic culture alongside Minneapolis history, find unique Nordic designed products in the Museum Shop, enjoy new Nordic cuisine at ASI's award-winning cafe, FIKA, and share stories and experiences.

Nine Lives, Sarah J. Merrill, ed. (Vol. I., 2003, Vol. II., 2005). Eldergivers, 1755 Clay St., San Francisco, CA 94109, (415) 441-2650), www.eldergivers.org/giftshop/. $20.00 (Vol. I) and $25.00 (Vol. II). Each of these two volumes contains summaries of relationships volunteers developed with nine residents of skilled nursing facilities. As readers, we are reminded that people in nursing homes had full and active lives before having to deal with disabilities related to aging. We also see that lives are complicated and the good and bad are shared without judgment. The trepidation and joy the volunteers experienced as they got to know "their" seniors makes this an interesting summary of the people, both residents and interviewers, whose lives were touched as they got to know one another. This book helps humanize the nursing home experience and reduce some of the aversion that some may feel in approaching the idea of a nursing home.

Medifocus Guide: Parkinson's Disease (Updated May, 2006). www.medifocus.com, (800) 965-3002. Available in electronic format for $19.95, or print format with electronic access for $24.95; including online updates every four months for one year. This guide is an excellent tool for patients and caregivers wishing to learn as much as possible about current research and treatment of Parkinson's Disease, including clinical trials. Clearly written and very comprehensive, it includes an in-depth overview of the disease with a directory of related organizations, and sections on "Centers of Research," "Tips for Finding and Choosing a Doctor" and "Recent Literature: What Your Doctor Reads." The literature section is designed for use with computer web access; titles of recently-published medical journal articles are listed by category, with web links to the abstracts (summaries) of those articles. Print version readers will also want computer internet access to take advantage of the free updates. Even without computer access, however, this is a valuable guide for those seeking more thorough medical information on Parkinson's Disease. Other Medifocus Guides are available covering more than 30 chronic and/or life threatening conditions. All sources are peer reviewed and reviewed by a Medical Advisory Board.
The Emotional Survival Guide for Caregivers: Looking After Yourself and Your Family While Helping an Aging Parent, Barry J. Jacobs (2006). The Guilford Press, 72 Spring Street, New York, NY 10012, (800) 365-7006 ext. 257, www.guilford.com. $14.95 (paperback). Dr. Jacobs draws both from years of practice as a clinician and from his experience with the debilitating impacts of serious illness on his own family. The focus here is on the emotional survival of the family, and how important it is to find a balance between taking care of a sick or aging loved one and taking care of each other. We get a close look at the caregiving experience from the interior perspective of each member of a fictional family, an illustration of how a family might typically cope with illness, new caregiver roles, and most of all, each other. Each chapter of the book focuses on a different emotional issue, and at the end of each chapter there is a question and answer segment where difficult scenarios are illustrated and discussed. Guidelines, advice, and questions for the reader are interspersed with the narrative. This insightful book is an important guide for any family trying to care for a loved one.

A large dollop of peanut butter can be hard for kids to swallow all at once. The safest way to eat it is to spread a thin layer on crackers or bread. It's also a good idea to serve it with something to drink. (Peanuts and peanut butter also pose an allergy risk. Be sure that it's safe for your child to eat before serving.)

Ms. Elaine Dezenski
Acting Assistant Secretary for Policy
TESTIMONY OF ELAINE DEZENSKI "THE WESTERN HEMISPHERE TRAVEL INITIATIVE" Chairman Cornyn and other distinguished Members, I am pleased to join you in Laredo today to discuss how the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is moving swiftly to mitigate vulnerabilities at our borders, in particular, our efforts to strengthen documentation requirements in the Western Hemisphere. The Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act of 2004 (IRTPA) includes important mandates that are designed to close long-standing vulnerabilities at our ports of entry and to help ensure that our border installations are not compromised by those who seek to do us harm. Section 7209 of IRTPA mandates that, by January 1, 2008, the Secretary of Homeland Security, in consultation with the Secretary of State, develop and implement a plan to require U.S. citizens and foreign nationals to present a passport or other approved documentation in order to enter or re-enter the United States. The documentation must confirm both identity and citizenship. Under current regulations, U.S. citizens who travel solely within the Western Hemisphere do not require passports to return to the United States. A similar "exemption" applies to most Canadian and Bermudian citizens entering the United States. This proposal to extend documentation requirements closes a long-standing security vulnerability at our borders. We must move forward quickly, not only to be responsive to the legislative mandates, but also to ensure that our ports of entry are not compromised by those who are not required to carry appropriate documentation. At the same time, we must also be careful not to hinder commerce in the process. To ensure that affected stakeholders will be able to submit their concerns, we are using a robust rulemaking process to allow multiple opportunities to comment on the proposed rule. In addition, we have attended over 30 listening sessions and town halls and have met with 670 community leaders and stakeholders to discuss this initiative. We are committed to working with affected stakeholders to mitigate potentially adverse effects as this initiative gets underway. As acknowledged by both the Administration and emphasized by the public, this is an enormous challenge. Given the magnitude of change this initiative will entail, DHS and DOS, in consultation with other government agencies, have proposed a two-phased implementation plan for WHTI. This approach was outlined in the Advanced Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (ANPRM), which was published in the Federal Register on September 1, 2005, and had a 60-day public comment period. In the ANPRM, we proposed air and sea implementation on December 31, 2006, and land implementation on December 31, 2007. In response to our proposal, approximately 2,000 public sources submitted comments; however, fewer than 800 of those were unique. These distinct comments were submitted by Governors, Mayors, Police Chiefs, Tribal leaders, business leaders, and border community members. We are currently considering the comments. Both DHS and DOS recognize the unique issues that this initiative will raise, and we will remain flexible when working with affected entities and communities. As we move forward, DHS will continue to look at options as they may become available, whether a global registered traveler program that could be applied at either border, looking at specific programs that can be expanded, creating new documents in partnership with the DOS, or assessing the viability of other documents. Many within Congress have recognized the importance of addressing border security and immigration reform. As an initiative that has been recognized throughout the government, and legislatively mandated, WHTI does not stand alone, but joins a cadre of programs created to provide layered security at our borders. As you know, the President recently signed into law the Department of Homeland Security Appropriations Act for Addressing any major issue at the border presents challenges, with over 7,000 miles of shared borders with Canada and Mexico and over a million people crossing the border a day, including many people in border communities who cross legally and contribute to the economic prosperity of our country and that of our neighbors. Maintaining this flow is critical; however, we must be confident in our determinations of who is crossing our border. By creating greater assurance of the documents presented by individuals crossing the border, we can focus our resources on other critical issues, such as border-related crime, drug cartels and coyotes, and other criminal activity that affects communities on both sides of the land border. WHTI is an important step in protecting homeland security, and DHS and DOS will use our resources to implement this travel initiative by the deadline set forth in law. Mr. Chairman and Members of the Subcommittee, I want to thank you for the opportunity to join you today in Laredo. I would be pleased to respond to your questions. |
