I am an attorney and know many others. However, when it came to hiring someone to handle my grandfather's estate we went to Tom. He was responsive, knowledgeable and patient. It is not always easy to deal with multiple beneficiaries. He recognized an error which could be corrected and petitioned the court. Because of his legal skill and eye for detail the estate saved a large amount of money.
As someone whom has been around attorneys on a regular basis due to business over the course of the last thirty years, Tom Begley's Law Firm is amongst the finest legal firms I've had the experience to be around.
So much so, that when I needed strong legal advice and assistance in Estate Administration, Estate Planning and a variety of other legal issues for my family, I turned to Tom and his team of professionals at Begley Law Group to handle the array of situations involved.
From the outset, Tom has been professional, knowledgeable, timely and responsive; and with his Firm, has provided outstanding representation in what at times has been very difficult situations, requiring top flight legal advice and guidance, on very short notice.
The only regret I have about the Begley Law Group is that I, personally, didn't utilize their services earlier, though my family has for years, with a high level of satisfaction. This is a highly rated Firm and deservedly so, unmatched integrity, honesty, ability and attention to detail are all hallmarks to their long standing history of legal service in the area.
If your looking for a first rate Lawyer and Firm, look no further, Tom Begley III and the Begley Law Group "is" the Firm to go to first for Eldercare Law, Estate Planning & Administration and a variety of other legal needs in the greater Philadelphia and Southern New Jersey area.

Street CornerThere's a man out on the street corner, holding up a sign for the cars going by. The sign says, in bold, black letters, "REPENT, TRUST JESUS." Through the fog on the bus window, I see him there. He's bundled up from head to toe, bracing himself against the -9 temperature (-17 with the windchill).
I wonder if this is a test of his faith or of his sanity. I suppose if you're willing to stand out in the searing cold, offering up a message that most won't see and the rest will ignore, you must believe in something. Perhaps that is not the best use of one's dedication, but it is certainly proof for any god or passerby who might be watching.
FacepaintWhen I was volunteering for the summer fair, my assignment was facepainting. This tearful little boy was shoved into the chair by his mother, an angry-looking woman with more frown lines than I have ever seen on a relatively young person. I figured that the boy was crying due to boredom; the stress of waiting in that long lineup. However, it didn't take me long to realize the real reason: he didn't want his face painted. As he screamed and struggled, I looked to his mother, who only told me brusquely that her son WOULD have his face painted. I felt so bad for the kid. Brushing a little happy blue onto my hand, I showed him that it didn't hurt. He didn't care. When I encouraged him to choose a colour, he only cried louder, and I looked to his mother again.
"He's really struggling," I told her.
"Just do it," she replied.
I debated sending them on their way, untouched. After all, it was a fr
ToNaNo Hogwarts Part 30 ENDWriting words galore in this word war I check the score
Of my city, my best friends, and myself.
I can't believe how far we've reached
And how many goals we've breached
And now we're drifting like a continental shelf.
Because victory's distracting
And now we're overacting
In the coffee shops.
The deadline is advancing
And we got each other dancing
On table tops.
The month is ending and the jokes are obscene
We feel exhausted but we're high on caffeine
Here comes the manager. He closes my laptop screen.
We're getting kicked out of Starbucks
We're getting kicked to the curb
We're getting kicked right out of Starbucks
The other patrons are perturbed.
So pack up your lattes,
Your netbooks and Macs
Your trusty moleskine
And your sugary snacks
We're getting thrown out
And we're not allowed back
In Starbucks, Starbucks.
Crazy word goals and a crazy month passed
Good friends, good times, and the days went so fast
Snow on the ground, we're still having a blast

ToNaNo Hogwarts Part 28 and 29Part Twenty Eight: Attack of the Zombie Errols
Quirk ducked behind a pile of crates, clutching the machine gun like it was her last hope for survival. For dramatic purposes, I should say it was, but a good grenade would have done the trick as well. Meanwhile, the zombie Errols shuffled by outside the storage compartment's thin metal walls. A characteristically loud vocalization shook the storage compartment.
Quirk cast a sideways glance at Tabs, who was the only other survivor. Tabs nodded and raised her machete. She gestured towards the door, from which Quirk was quite certain that she heard the sound of staggering, sliding footsteps. The two inched up by the side of the door and waited for it to burst open.
The zombie Errol charged at the door, shaking it on its hinges but not quite breaking it. Quirk winced. The zombie Errol tried again. The door sh

As seagulls circled under the midday sun, a little raft bobbed somewhere in the middle of the South Pacific. Too far from civilization to tell which way was which, and too disenchanted to care how they got there in the first place, the few survivors waited in silence for salvation. Well, in relative silence. Quirk and Scott Hamel were singing. It was an odd sound, because Quirk did not know the lyrics and Scott Hamel's accent was still changing every couple of lines. You would think that that doesn't make the difference when you're singing, because m

"But now that that's over with," said Professor Langley, "party in Hogsmeade!"
Confetti fell from the ceiling, because the Ghost of Debs was shredding some papers. Music began to play as Rumbleroar, Anne of Green Gables, and the Spanish Inquisition paraded through.
"Wait a minute!" Shouted Professor Vicks. "None of this story makes any sense whatsoever!"
She frantically searched through her various lists to see how any of this story could have made sense, and in doing so, broke the fourth wall. Seeing as the other walls had already been destroyed by giant spiders a

Without much experience in travelling myself, even though I help others organise themselves, I had not realised I'd have so much work to do! I knew I would have to get my passport, get a visitor visa, book flights, accommodation, arrange vaccinations and pack suitable luggage for South Africa's weather in September.

I couldn't believe how quickly time passed. This morning it was time to check out of the hotel! After all my luggage was lined up at my door, I doubled checked the hotel room to see if I had all of my possessions, and made sure my passport was in bag.

I had to make sure my routine vaccinations were up to date (measles-mumps-rubella, diptheria-tetanus-pertussis, varicella and polio) and I had to get a flu shot - ouch!

Human resources and the employee's supervisor should receive copies of the incident report. If possible, these parties should respond to the report by disclosing to security any previous incidents with that individual so that security can have a more accurate risk profile of that person as a reference point if they are called to respond to a future incident. The security department should treat that information as confidential so that the individual is not unfairly targeted or humiliated.
Officers are also taught how to investigate incidents of sabotage and vandalism. This includes interviewing personnel, documenting the events, and reporting to the proper authorities, whether internal or external (such as law enforcement).
Officers are also taught that when they are called to a high-risk event in progress, they should calmly and quietly evacuate the area. Officers are trained to speak slowly, softly, and confidently to the perpetrator to avoid escalating the situation. Then, the officers are taught to direct the individual to an area where they can calm down and where there aren't any objects they can throw or kick.
Officers learn that it is important to maintain some physical distance from the individual so as not to appear threatening. Officers learn not to touch the individual unless absolutely necessary and to remain at arm's length to prevent an attack. As with other risk categories, once the incident is over, security officers are taught that they should interview the perpetrator and witnesses separately, document the incident, and then submit reports to the appropriate personnel.
Defensive considerations. The third day of training centers around the physical attacks an officer may face during a workplace-violence incident. The training should not focus solely on guns, because other objects that may be grabbed in the heat of the moment or concealed for a planned attack can be just as deadly. For example, knives, scissors, and other edged weapons are easily concealed until the perpetrator is within striking distance of the victim.
Any object can be used as a bludgeon including staplers, binders, and other standard office supplies. Chemicals, including many cleaning products, are easily accessible on many work sites. Aerosol sprays can be ignited by a lighter or chemicals can be sprayed or splashed in someone's face, causing chemical burns.
The third day of training ends at a gym facility where officers receive training in baton and defensive tactics.

In Memory of Henrietta Oenbrink
In Memory of Henrietta Oenbrink (October 24, 1927 – Sept. 3, 2014).
Our friend, our co-worker, our family. At 15, Henrietta left home to study to be a nun and was awarded her black veil at age 18. She was sent to Detroit and various locations in Florida over the years, before landing at St. Ann Catholic School where she was principal for 12 years. St. Ann's is where she met Jerry Oenbrink, a widower. She said no one was more surprised than she was when they decided to tie the knot. The same year she was married, Henrietta came to work for our firm as a receptionist and quickly became its heart and soul for the next 30 years. She kept us all in line. After her husband passed away, we all felt we became her family.
Although she lived alone, she was never alone. She had us and we had Henrie. Henrie was always happy and in good spirits. She was the most generous, thoughtful and selfless person you could ever meet and was adored by everyone. As father Murtagh said at her memorial service, "She was good in every aspect of her life." What better tribute could be said of Henrie? While she will be missed by all of us; she will never be forgotten.

The casita was fabulous - beautiful decorations and furniture from Mexico and Bali. The colors of walls and upholstery bright and inviting. The beds super comfy and linens of high quality. Cheryl's attention to detail was impeccable.
The upper balcony was our favorite hang out. We had a panoramic view of the Sea of Cortez, gorgeous desert mountains, cactus in the arroyo, and close up bird and iguana watching as they perched on the giant cactus nearby. The covered deck always had a cool breeze which created the perfect setting for reading, napping, chatting, munching, and drinking of our homemade margaritas! From here we listened to the birds, the whinnies of horses, and only the occasional voices from other casitas in the distance.
On the ground floor we had our own private open-air kitchen, and dinning area. We liked to make our own breakfasts and lunches, and then visit one of the six restaurants in town for dinner. On Cheryl's suggestion we stopped at the large... more

Did you know that Mateo is the only artist in music history to collaborate with Alicia Keys, Dirty Money and Pusha T? You did? Oh, well then, Carry On. For his latest effort the R&B fast riser rides solo over a Kerry "Krucial" Brothers and Zeke MacUmber beat tailor-made for uptempo inspiration. Mateo grabs that instrumental torch and runs with it, letting listeners know that no matter what's happened in their past, they need to keep their eyes firmly affixed to the future. Let the crooners' vocals be a lesson to everyone out there: You can't let your baggage weigh you down when you're trying to move – especially if you're a lovely lady trying to move in with Mateo. With a start like this there's no telling what the release of the Interscope signee's upcoming and currently unscheduled album, Suite 823, will have in store for us. Who knows, maybe some more of his famous friends will even stop by. Until then, carry on as you were…

freightliner service vs RV dealer
Since your coach is new it would be a warranty issue. That is probably why your dealer would not work on it. Also a turn signal issue is somewhat unique. For an issue such as this you would not take a new Chevrolet to a Ford dealer. As a side note, it is a good idea to first go to your dealer because it can, at times, be difficult for an owner to understand what belongs to Freightliner and what belongs to the chassis manufacturer.

How long to learn to drive a Class A
Remember, that a motorhome is a large slab-sided box. Nothing like the PU you have been driving. The air currents and any wind will affect the motorhome much more than any auto/truck-sized vehicle. Some of the "sway and playing" you are experiencing is not actually there but since you are sitting higher it will seem to be a bigger problems. It is somewhat in the same region as how much faster you will seem to be going in any vehicle the closer you are to the pavement. All that having been said any motorhome has a higher center of gravity than any car/truck vehicle. Try riding along while someone else drives the motorhome and see what your perceptions are. I think that you are worrying more about perception than reality.

2015 CRV and Towing
It can be hard to find a "gently used" CR-V since they are usually kept for an extended period of time. I just traded a 2004 CR-V that was in great shape but the running gear had 150,000 miles on it.

Solved: A 2014 Chevy Equinox issue
Recently traded a 2004 Honda CR-V for a 2014 Chevy Equinox two wheel drive. I had one issue that others might be interested in. When the base plate was installed I also had a charge line installed. The owner's manual says to remove a fuse to prevent battery discharge. Well, clever me, on short trips why would I remove the fuse since I have a charge line and even for a car with a nav system 125 miles should be no problem. However, I noticed that when turning a corner the auto front wheels did not trail, not good. This car has electric power steering. Talking to a Chevy mechanic I found out that a second reason to pull the stated fuse was to remove power from the electric steering motor. With power on the motor, when towing the car, the front wheels are, is essence, locked straight ahead and are not allowed to trail. This model has had electric power steering for a number of years. I am surprised this issue has not been stated previously.

Been sitting and thinking...
Great subject. I to, like others, have had these thoughts. At some point we all have to "give it up." Last year after two consecutive years of multi-month trips I decided to pass on any more long range trips. We now use the coach for one or two rallies per month and four months in Florida. At some point we will transition to a park model in Florida just like many others. What will we do with ourselves the rest of the time? Well, boredom is a self-inflicted wound. I have never had any problem keeping busy. If the only thing keeping you moving is the coach you might want to rethink your lifestyle.

2014 Honda CR-V TOAD Metal Valve Stems
If the only thing concerning you about the CR-V is metal valve stems I think that you are going to have the same problems with any toad. I and dozens, if not hundreds, of others have used TST TPMS sensors on toad rubber valve stems with no problems. Ignore those who muddy the water with info about the federally based monitoring systems since you need to be in your car to use it. Yes, the TST FAQ page does say it is best to use metal valve stems but if you call them I think that they will say that rubber stems are also okay. Maybe they will not but they have to consider the liability issue with any statements. Their primary customer is the truck/RV owner. The tires on these units have much longer stems. I cannot envision a situation other than something like a car wash where the typical short auto rubber stems would cause a problem.

jack pads for motorhome
The major problem with any commercial jack pad is the cost. If they are inexpensive they are generally not stiff enough. I made four pads using two lengths of 2x6 attached to a 12x12 piece of 3/4 inch plywood for each one. Very stiff. I have nylon rope pulls attached to one corner. I also have two one inch thick 12x12 nylon pads also with nylon rope pulls. The nylon pads are very stiff but expensive ($40 each). I use one or more wooden pads any time I think that the ground needs them. I use the nylon pads under the wood pads for winter time parking (four months) at our park in Florida. While the nylon pads were expensive, they get cheaper every year that I use them. They are virtually indestructable.

Need Help in Choosing MH Length
Winnebago has had a 34ft DP model in both Winnebago and Itasca for several years. You might look for those. I do not know what your definition of "high end amenities" is but usually the smaller the coach the lesser the amenities. That being said, you will usually find better quality in most DPs than gas models. Not always true, but a good general rule.

pros and cons of hydro heat
While not an owner of a coach with this system our rally group has several coaches that do. Virtually all of these coaches were bought used and all of them had issues with the hydro hot system because they had not be serviced regularly. I believe there are many owners with this type system that just do not do the maintenance and then, at some point, wonder why it quits working.

Short DP's Handling
Any Class A MH, semi, bus, etc. is pushing a big wall of air. When you approached him, I assume on the left, it pushed his rear end to the right. Correspondingly his front went left, toward you. If you had watched him as you passed him you would have seen his front go back to the right due to the air pressure between the two vehicles. The less the passed coach weighs the more pronounced the effect. As you get into 39+ units the effect is almost non-existent. .

How to flat tow an AWD SUV?
According to the FMCA Towing Guide there are no 2007 Cadillacs cleared for towing 4 down. Look at your owner's manual for that subject and ask a Cadillac service manager. Call Blue Ox. They know what can be towed and if a pump will solve your problem. The usual reason cars are not towable 4 down is the transmission. That is why almost all of the Hondas are no longer towable.

Pilot/Flying J Loyalty Program
Concerning PenFed credit cards there are a number of moving parts. There are Rewards Signature Visa cards and Cash Rewards Visa cards. There are two Cash Rewards cards; Standard (3% rebate) and Plus (5% rebate). After the first year the Standard cost $25, the Plus is free forever. With the Signature card you can redeem points for merchandise or debit cards. With the Cash Rewards card the rebate is applied to your account monthly. HOWEVER, those are the current rules. I have had a Cash Rewards card for several years. It has no annual fee and a 5% fuel rebate that is converted to points that I can redeem. It would appear that most of the rules that apply when you get your card remain because my Cash Rewards card has attributes of both of the current cards. Concerning P/FJ RV Plus charge card, in my experience it is the only one that allows pump start in the truck lanes. That is why I have one. Those rules started when they brought out that charge card. Also, if you use the truck lanes and use another credit card for fuel inside most of them will not give you a gas rebate since, as was stated, you need to swipe at the pump. That even applies to the RV lanes. Lastly, P/FJ is installing receipt kiosks inside the building for those who only want a receipt. Somewhat like checking in to the airlines for a boarding pass. This whole discussion is similar to when Pilot and Flying J merged. It takes time for everyone involved to get the correct information and for the system to settle down.

In reference to the cost of a GS card you have to remember that it is now a triple use card; Good Sam, Camping World and P/FJ. Previously, you had to pay separately for the GS and CW cards and the P/FJ card was free. I do not remember what the prices used to be but I doubt the combination was less than $25 per year. Everyone has their own style of travel but there are many who use all three of these companies and the newer card gets you discount at all three. I honestly do not care how others spend their money since I do not have to pay their bills. My reason for starting this thread was to pass on some info I recently obtained in hopes it would be beneficial for some. Unfortunately, it turned into a vehicle for negativity concerning P/FJ.

Sometimes boxing resembles that old series of Miller Lite commercials, where the rival factions take turns shouting at one another, "Great taste!"/"Less filling!" That's what I like about this Eric Raskin column. It preaches the Miller Lite lesson, "Why not both?"I thought the two sides would stop shouting at each other after Andre Ward's performance on HBO this weekend. Not only were the purists immensely satisfied, but 99 percent of the commentary I saw out there was that Ward had also finally, satisfactorily answered the age-old gladiatorial question, "Are you not entertained?" with an aggressive stoppage win over Chad Dawson.Some bloodlusts cannot be sated, I suppose. Some of this is simply a matter of taste. The thing about taste is, you can defend it, you can explain it, you can even try to sway it in others. But for whatever reason -- the most commonly cited reason was that the fight was one-sided -- Ward-Dawson had some holdout...

Very scenic. Excellent variety of holes. A good course for all level of golfers. It's a walkable course depending on your fitness level. The club house had good service and the prices were reasonable. I'll stop by again next time I'm in Canmore.

The golf course is an old style course playing about 6400 yards from the tips. It is fun course to play for the average player and is quite walkable. The greens are small and undulating. I found the greens slow but this makes it easier to putt and they held a properly struck shot. The bunkers are strategic and easy...
Canmore GC is a nice parkland course with outstanding views of of the surrounding mountains. The course is reasonably priced (for high traffic tourist area) and was in great condition. Played with friendly, helpful locals. All the staff we met we very friendly, especially the starter and pro. This will be our first choice when we return to the area.
Lovely facility, great concession, golf course looked beautiful, kids slept in curling rink and had delicious catered meals. Three ice times a day, my son had an awesome time!
Beautiful course with great views of the mountains! Very reasonably priced for 18 holes of golf, however the Marshall was a little pushy and we felt a little rushed thru.

So what is unschooling?
The term "unschooling" was coined by John Holt in the 70's. It is reference to the soft drink 7up calling itself the "un-cola" as an alternative to Coca Cola. Unschooling as a movement was an alternative to school or school-at-home.
It is simply learning from life and following the lead and interests of your child. The underlining principal is that humans are born learners and learn best with the freedom to be self motivated and learn what, when and how they choose. Human beings are driven to acquire knowledge-children are constantly asking "why?" and "show me how". It is not through rigorous lessons and testing but through observation, interaction and the need to be a part of the community that children learn how to talk. Learning about the world around them and how things work within it are no different. It is through school that learning by rote of a pre determined body of knowledge at set ages is introduced. This does not take into account the individual needs, interests and learning style of the child.
Joyce Fetteroll says "The goals of unschooling are different than those of school or academic-leaning forms of homeschooling.
Our goal is for our children to be happy and pursue what they enjoy. Most people have that goal too, but they believe children need prepared to do what they enjoy. Unschoolers know that people will do what they need to do to do what they enjoy when given the freedom to do it."

We stayed here for two nights and the host was very friendly and full of information and knowledge on Dubrovnik. The bus was only 3 minutes walk and went directly to the old city which was great, and there were plenty of places to eat 8 minutes walk. There was off street parking but do NOT use your GPS to get to the actual apartment as it will have you going up lanes so narrow that your mirrors are almost touching the sides and at one stage up a flight of stairs!!!!! Email the host for the address for the house where you park (next door)and you will arrive on normal roads. Great place and would stay there again.

Steve, the owner picked us up from a location and took us to the guesthouse. To our surprise, the room was beautiful, the pictures don't do justice. He also took his time to give us an explanation on where to go, where to buy the tickets for the old city, where the maket was, etc. we are extremely satisfied with the service provided, the room and the whole experience

Anna Guesthouse was perfect for me. "Stevie" my host made my stay memorable with ideal and very personalized recommendations for how I should spend my time in the area. He went above and beyond on a daily basis to make sure I had everything I needed and that all went very smoothly for me the entire time I was there. I will return to Croatia and stay at Anna Guesthouse again and will recommend it to my friends who wish to travel there.

The apartment we stayed in was very spacious and comfortable. We did not quite feel at home as we had read in other reviews probably because we were assigned to a nearby apartment, nevertheless everything was great, we really enjoyed our stay in Dubrovnik. It is located 15 min by bus from city center, close to the beach and well served by public transportation. We definitely recommend this place. Host was very kind to pick us up upon arrival, and take us to the bus station when departing.
