Camping places in new mex' to cal' etc.
I am riding from Florida out west and hope to be leaving aroung the beginning of september. As I will be camping everywhere and am on the thinnest of shoestrings I wondered if anyone can suggest from experience any nice/decent campsites or camping areas(I DON'T care if there are little or NO facilities) either free or no more then 5 bucks a night.I dont have the money to shell out 10 dollars or more just to pitch a tent to sleep one night. I am hoping to spend time in the following states- New Mex,Ariz, Utah Nev,Utah,Cal, Oregon and Wash. I do have a book with all national forest sites in etc. but some suggestions from people who have stayed on any such places I descibed would be a great help. I am on an unlimited time frame. i.e.- however long I can last on 1000 dollars for everything, gas,camping, food etc!!!! Thanks. enjoy the road!

National Park campground's are often free if they're considered 'primitive', which also means free of rv's and the like. They're your best bet in most states.
You might have to hike in a mile or two, so you'll need a cover for the bike. I left my bike (it wasn't exactly a bmw) at trailheads all over the northwest, and no hassles.
Arizona's great. State law allows you to camp anywhere, for free, if you're at least a (??) few miles from main roads and rivers/lakes. Seeing as it's mostly desert, you can find a good spot easily.
California's not so easy, but if you arrive late and get up early, you can often 'forget to pay'. I got woken up open summer morning by a pot smoking, guitar playing park ranger who forgot all about the 13$ after a good cup of coffee.
Happy travels.
Thanks t0by, all input is welcome. The book I have is "guide to free campgrounds" by Don Wright. It lists thousands of sites in all the states which are free. As yet I have to see how accurate it is but it should be a big help. The only thing what gets me is the way RV sites are put in the same arena as "camping". Thats not camping! I did a trip across the states 10 years ago with my brother and we'd follow a "camping" sign only to find when we got to the place it was just for bloody RV's!!!! Man that pisses me off.
Hi Mart
Also check out the following links:

Thanks Susan, just in time! I will check those out. I leave this Sunday or monday and my shoestring has got even thinner ha. Hope it doesn't get too thin and snap!
I will post any good results when I get chance to venture near a city/town with a public library so I can use a computer once in a while.

"Rotten Eggs & poor breakfasts"
Uninteresting corridor town with the Hotel and the thermal baths next door as the only feature. Persistent Sulphur smell from next door. Very poor breakfasts 10 euros each to use Thermal. Unhelpful reception staff.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Great hotel for relaxation"
Great hotel, spa and facilities excellent. Staff were helpful and welcoming. Outside slightly below its best. Location in terms of visiting Tivoli and Rome great, however immediate vicinity not particularly salubrious. Nowhere nice to eat away from hotel, mainly fast food on main road. Good transport links to Tivoli and Rome, buses very crowded would […] recommend the train but check timetables. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

"too stinky and too far"
smelly and far from everything , sheets changed three times a week only, trashy neighborhood. the girls at the front office are ok in English and boys are not. you have to pay for everything you use from the mini bar and you have to pay to go to the swimming pool 10 euro per person and 5 euro for chair on the pool which is 30 euro for me and my girl […] to swim in freezing cold swimming pool with the public it's not even private for the hotel guests its public swimming pool plus the smell from the health club next door its really bad. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
Response by Victoria Terme Hotel Dear Wael, we inform you that the smell you're talking about is coming from the water sulphur, one of the main features of our hotel, located in a thermal area. The payment of the entrance to the pools is also clearly written in the information on the Expedia website and our swimming pools have a the temperature of 23 ° centigrade (therefore are not cold) Best regards

"Victoria Terme Hotel - don't go for the location!"
This was a comfortable and affordable hotel, but it is not deserving of a 4 star rating. The room was spartan with no comfortable seating and a very hard bed. There is limited information available in English and what there is has been very poorly translated. The internet connection is slow, not wireless and not cheap! If you are in need of a good hotel […] in the Tivoli Terme hotel I would recommend this hotel, but don't expect 4 star service! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
Response by Victoria Terme Hotel Dear Guest, Sorry that you have not felt comfortable at our hotel but we want to emphasize that both the structure and the services are covered, without any doubt, in the category of 4 stars. The rooms are modern and equipped with all comforts, as well as all the information in English. The internet connection is currently wi-fi and is free throughout the hotel. Best regards
"ottima stanza, prezzi alti"
Albergo moderno e molto confortevole. Le piscine, ampie e immerse in un bellissimo giardino, scontano il fatto di avere l'acqua fredda (che è insolito per delle terme, anche se ne ero al corrente). Colazione abbondante ma non pensata per i bambini, in generale è un albergo rivolto a una fascia di età piuttosto alta. Siamo stati molto bene ma il rapporto […] qualità/prezzo non è dei migliori.

Ottimo albergo, non abbiamo usufruito della spa perché avevamo con noi i figli piccoli, ma torneremo senza per valutare tutto.. per quello che abbiamo visto è un ottimo hotel con buon rapporto qualità\prezzoGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"terme non da 4 stelle"
Nel complesso è stato buono, l'unico problema non è stato con la parte relativa all'hotel bensì alle terme, lasciano molto a desiderare... i servizi sono nulli a parte darti l'asciugamano, ciabattine e accappatoio per il resto tutto molto decadente.se ci fosse manutenzione delle docce e varie saune allora ne varrebbe un pò di più la pena.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Response by Victoria Terme Hotel Gentile Cliente, la ringraziamo per la sua recensione ma ci teniamo a precisare che la manutenzione e la cura dei servizi sono al primo posto fra le nostre priorità e, anche a detta della maggior parte dei nostri ospiti, risultano essere assolutamente in linea con le aspettative della nostra clientela. Cordiali saluto, la Direzione
Je ne retournerai pas à cet hotel.Très difficile à trouver parceque pas situé à Tivoli mais bien à Tivoli terme, et un gps vous conduit à la destination demandée , et pas à 10km de là.Environs lugubres une fois la nuit tombée.Hotel très grand ,très propre , mais à notre étage (1) il y avait une odeur de relents de fosse septique dans les couloirs.Par […] contre chambre et s-d-b impeccables.Il y a un parking à l'hotel qui revient quand même à 4€ par 24h.Vous pouvez profiter du centre spa moyennant le paiment de 35€ par jour.Le restaurant a une belle carte , mais les prix sont exagérés.Le petit déjeuner très varié , frais et de bonne qualité , gros bémol toutefois,mon épouse va au comptoir avec la petite cafetière pour ravoir du café et revient toute dépitée , le barman a versé dans la cafetière , 2 restants de cafetière et le contenu d'une tasse qui trainait sur le comptoir,je n'ai vraiment pas apprécié. Ah , j'allais oublier: réveillé par erreur à 4H50du matin.Je pense qu'il serait juditieux d'ajouter dans vos commentaires, que ce n'est pas un hotel , mais un vrai centre thermal,où les gens viennent se soigner , moyenne d'âge des clients 75 ans!!!En résumé ,a part la chambre,je suis particulièrement déçu de cet hotel qui ne méritte vraiment pas sa quatrième étoile , les trois étoiles que nous avons fait au cours de se voyage , étaient supérieurs .

Ho trovato l'Hotel ben curato, personale cortese, ottima colazione, buona anche la pulizia delle camere. Alla reception si sono prodigati per tutte le info che mi servivano. La posizione è strategica per Tivoli, spendendo meno di un hotel al centro del paese. Non è indicato per chi vuole uscire a piedi per fare una passeggiata perchè si trova su una […] strada trafficatissima, ma avendo una macchina è molto comodo. Ha il parcheggio interno molto economico. C'è anche la zona wellness e la piscina, ma non ne ho usufruito essendo il mio un weekend dedicato a Tivoli e Villa Adriana.

Overall nice. But could hear the neighbouring rooms as if the guests were standing in my room. This woke me up almost every morning. Last night the phone rang kl 3:30 and left me awake and hour. Also note that the swimming pool is not included in the price. This cost 10 euros for entry 5 euro for a bed pr. day. Breakfast (incl in price): I cant digest […] milk products. The bread in the morning I found rather dry. The coffee though as the only one thing were excellent. Super in the evening were okay. All the staff were however all VERY nice!

Thank you for your comment and for your compliments to our staff. Sincerely
"viaggio di piacere"
Il ristorante interno ha i prezzi un po altini e all'esterno dell'hotel c'è un po di puzza sulfuria dovuta sicuramente ai leghetti oppure alle terme che distano pochi centinaia di metri. Comunque niente che possa nuocere alla salute.Genuine Expedia guest review
Response by Victoria Terme Hotel Gentile Piero, le confermiamo che l'odore di cui parla nella recensione è relativo alla acqua sulfurea, essendo il nostro hotel localizzato proprio all'interno del Parco Termale (una delle caratteristiche principali e assolutamente positive della nostra struttura). Ci teniamo inoltre a segnalare che i prezzi del ristorante sono assolutamente in linea con quelli delle altre strutture 4 stelle. Un cordiale saluto.
very far away place from Rome. take more than a hour. not for sightseeing in Rome. tight room and make noisy from next room. this is for budget bus tour hotel. no Wifi, cable LAN with access log in. neme with Terme hotel,but separate place with charge. I don't want visit again.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Response by Victoria Terme Hotel Dear Guest, our Hotel, as written on the website of Expedia, is located in Tivoli terme, however, is just 20 km from Rome (half an hour away by car or bus, excluding traffic, or 30 minutes by train from the station, which is only 200 meters from the hotel). Note also that you can now use the free wi-fi throughout the hotel, including the rooms. Sincerely
"Buon hotel ma il ristorante...."
Rapporto qualità prezzo del ristorante scarso,personale di sala deludenteGenuine Expedia guest review
Response by Victoria Terme Hotel Gentile Cliente, ci dispiace che non abbia apprezzato il nostro ristorante in quanto il nostro chef, che ha una vasta esperienza internazionale, in genere riesce a soddisfare tutte le esigenze dei nostri ospiti, comprese quelle di persone che seguono una dieta particolare o preferiscono ingredienti specifici. Inoltre, la professionalità del nostro personale ci permette di proporre i migliori piatti della tradizione italiana ideati seguendo una dieta corretta ed equilibrata. Un cordiale saluto
Bell'albergo moderno e funzionale, con posteggio sotterraneo. Le camere sono spaziose e ben arredate; la colazione ricca. Non presenta possibilità di passeggiate dopo cena se non sulla trafficatissima Tiburtina. Vicino a Villa Adriana e a Tivoli; comodo per recarsi a Roma in quanto la stazione ferroviaria è a duecento metri dall'albergo. L'unica nota […] fastidiosa l'odore di uova marce che proviene dalle terme ma a cui ci si abitua presto. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
Response by Victoria Terme Hotel Gentile Maurizio, la ringraziamo per la sua recensione e la invitiamo a tornare presto presso la nostra struttura, magari usufruendo del centro benessere e delle piscine del parco termale (aperto nel periodo estivo). Un caro saluto, il Direttore
"Not worth a 4 star hotel."
10/08/14 carla l
First impression Nice hotel. When entering the hotel, the staff are very lazy and inattentive that you feel like you have to pay them to get them to talk to you properly and even pay attention to you. Regarding the breakfast, there is a large variety of sweet cakes and donuts , etc,, but very little salty food :Only Ham and cheese and toast. For a 4 star hotel , this is under the minimum. I went there for a business trip, i didnt personally choose this hotel. The smell of the sulfur spring is not that bad. A lot of improving should be done to arrive at least to the level of a 4 star hotel.
Overall Rating
"good for what was needed."
04/28/14 JennyBirch London, United Kingdom
it I stayed in this hotel for a week in June. Personally, I rather enjoyed it but of course, like any hotel, it had a ups and downs. Firstly, I would like to say what stuck out the most for me was the attentive and well mannered staff. Many of them spoke English which is good as I speak no Italian. The rooms were very nice and a good size for a holiday with plenty of luggage room. The only problem I had was the fact the Air Conditioning did not work and I was very hot in the evening. The food was excellent and the service was great but if you speak little or no Italian, you will need to learn food names as there was no translation. Another problem I encountered like many others who have commented was the unbelievable smell. To be honest, it did make me feel sick. It was so strong and you could smell it anywhere in the hotel and at all times of the day. Something to note for travellers, when going to this hotel, please note that to use the pool, there is a fee to pay and an additional fee to use the sunbeds. I was not aware of this and also, I was not allowed to take my hotel towel out to the pool neither.

"mega hotel catering to bus loads"
04/28/14 melrock Tuscany, Italy
First the good: The rooms and common areas are all quite clean and the staff is excellent: we stayed two nights and never had a bad experience. Breakfast is truly wonderful, with excellent choice and quality. Now the bad: Yes, this is a spa ("terme") hotel, and the waters are sulphur, so if you don't think you want that wafting in your window, this isn't the place for you. Also, the corridors are very impersonal and long, intensifying the sensation of being in a mega hotel for tour groups.

"4 star hotel, more like 3 star in US ... still very good ..."
09/03/13 zanypoet Richmond, Virginia
I did not personally pick this hotel. Rather, it was chosen by the US travel agency that packages European Tours. First of all, the hotel is next to a sulfur spring that emits stinky smell. Despite what others have said, the odor, while noticeable, is not over-powering. The hotel is somewhat off the beaten path and there were not much shops or restaurants nearby aside from the hotel dining option. The breakfast buffet had a good selection of pastries and the usual breakfast items, as good as any of the buffets served at mid-level hotels in US. Although they spoke limited English, the staff was courteous and professional. The lobby was clean and modern, the rooms were clean and comfortable. For us, the internet access was free, although connections were slow. I wouldn't mind staying here again.
Overall Rating
"Nice spot in the summer time"
11/24/12 Michael D London, United Kingdom
Although I haven't stayed in the hotel rooms I'm a regular user of the pools and restaurant. If you can get past the smell the sulphar pools is a great chill out spot in the summertime. There are 5/6 pools of different depths positioned one after the other in a C shape. Also the restaurant serves nice fresh fish and different vegatables and fresh fruit. A nice place to spend time

"This place literally stinks"
09/22/12 Billy B Buffalo
We stayed here on our way to Ville D'este. Somehow I missed the fact that they have sulfur pools. As a result the entire place literally stinks. So unfortunately for me it was something I could not get passed. The breakfast was mundane but we did manage to squeeze a cappuccino out of them! Our room itself was clean, cool aesthetically, and had a nice view. If you are into sulfur then maybe you will have a better experience.

"A decent night"
08/22/12 clacarbone Rome, Italy
We booked a night in this 4 star hotel to take advantage of a package that was on offer, which included the night, dinner, a day at the spa, and two days at the pools. The hotel is fine, although I'd rate it more 3* than 4*. I choose the double "superior" room (a surplus of 10€ each): it had a very spacious but dark (just one light on the ceiling, none above the mirror, or inside the shower) bathroom with both a jacuzzi bathtub and a shower. The service included not only a full set of towels, but bathrobes too. The Hotel is arranged in "C" form, and our room was on the third floor looking inside che "C" by the edge, so by opening the window one could see the pools a hundre meters to the left. Not much of a view. The bed was comfortable, but the pillows were too short and soft for my taste, although nowhere near uncomfortable. Air conditioning was fully adjustable, but the noise didn't stop with the room system being shut off. The hotel itself is nice, and does the job at the rate we payed. What didn't satisfy us at all was the kitchen: food quality is really average, and given the 4* rate you'd expect a lot more. The evening we stayed offered a so-called Roman Dinner buffet: some typically Roman dishes like Porchetta and Carbonara, or "brushetta with lardo". The quality was really average, just like any tourist restaurant in Rome. It was an all-you-can-eat buffet, so we thought breakfast would be better. It was, if possible, even worse: most of the products were industrial (lots of mass-produced cakes, imitations of a famous italian brand products, the one with the watermill as its logo), croissants were unflavoured and not fragrant at all. Overall avoid the hotel's kitchen at all costs: you're better off trying some external restaurant in Tivoli. Since we went in August, weather was good and hot, thus the Hotel had organized a kind of entertainment where after dinner in the court formed by the wings of the hotel, the restaurant tables were put aside and music was played, along with group dances and karaoke. Not anything super, but decent to help keep children in check for a couple days of relax. The Hotel personnel was really well trained, educated and kind: most of them would greet any guest even when passing by along the corridors, and when by accident the bath-alarm was pulled, the phone rang in no time attesting to their attention. Overall the hotel can surely be recommended for staying really near the thermae and near the railway (the station is just behind it), but avoid the kitchen.

"Victoria Terme's Hotel"
09/26/11 Donnitta trani,Italy
My husband and I loved our stay at the Victoria Terme's. The staff was fabulous. The room were clean and nicer then we expected for the price. There is a smell of sulfur, that was a bit strong ( we knew that before we booked it, so can't complain) My husband and I live here in Italy and have been here for 4 years, as far as Italian hotel's go, we were very happy with this one. We will be back!

"Smelly stay next to the hot springs in rundown area"
07/30/10 bjornstrom Stockholm, Sweden
The first thing you should know about this hotel is that it's located just next to the hot springs of Tivoli Terme. That means that you can't escape the sulphur smells which frankly smells like a bathroom scent. Four pools of 6000 square meters are located next door (it's not part of the actual hotel - entry is €10 and open for the public). We paid €90 for a double room which was modern and quite nice. Wifi cost €12 per night (expensive!) and was slow. Parking is €3 per night in the hotel garage. The location is not very good with few dining options nearby and a bit rundown area. Service was friendly but in poor english. Breakfast was included but pretty poor. Free coffeebar was a plus (i got a Cappuccino). Outdoor breakfast option next to the smelly pools. Hotel is close to A1 highway but the nearest exit is about 7 kilometers away and requires a bit of navigating. 10 minutes away from hotel is the RomaEst shopping centre with AppleStore and more which was pretty ok.

Is the iPad mini losing its appeal?
When Apple announced its new iPads last week it was, unsurprisingly, iPad Air 2 that got the most focus. It's Apple's flagship (and most expensive) tablet after all, and received the greatest improvements.
The iPad mini 3 had little new to offer, and so was presented almost as an afterthought. Rather curiously, Apple is now selling three generations of the mini at varying price points, but new sales data suggests the smaller tablet is falling out of favor with consumers.
Apple CEO Tim Cook writes to employees after Q4 2014 earnings call
Still in buoyant mood after the launch of the iPhone 6, Apple Watch, and iPad Air 2 -- even the Mac mini -- Apple gave its Q4 2014 earnings call yesterday. CEO Tim Cook announced that the company generated $42.1 billion in revenue in the quarter and a net profit of $8.5 billion, up from $37.5 billion and $7.5 billion for the same period last year. Referring to the "biggest iPhone launch ever", Cook explained that Apple is due to enter the holiday season with its "strongest product lineup ever".
He explained that 60 percent of the quarter's revenue came from international sales, and sales have gone up in just about every area of the company with the exception of iPad and iPod sales. The iPhone remains the biggest seller (some 39.272 million units, up 16.2 percent), and Mac sales are also strong (5.52 million units, up 20.7 percent).
How to switch from iOS to Android, according to Google
With Android 5.0 Lollipop, Nexus 6 and Nexus 9 on the horizon, as well as some great Android devices already on the market, some of you may be thinking about ditching iOS for Android. It is unquestionably a big decision, so you may want to ensure that the switch from an iPhone or iPad will be as painless as possible.
To help with the switch, Google has prepared a nifty guide that explains how you can migrate your data from iOS to Android, tackling key areas such as multimedia content, contacts, email, messaging and, of course, apps. You may recall that Apple posted a similar guide last month, detailing to would-be customers the steps they need to take to move from Android handsets to iPhones. Google now looks to simply be returning the favor.
Apple shouldn't sell iPad like toothpaste
Sarah Perez makes the point before I could (oh lazy me): "Apple announces too many iPads". That's the most sensible take on tablets launched last week, and over the weekend copycat stories started posting. Strange thing, there's nothing new about iPad configuration complexity. The number of base SKUs, while way too many, increases by just two.
I first harped on Apple's "too many problem", following iPad mini's introduction two years ago, observing: "It's a crowded lineup, with overlapping features and prices not seen from Apple since the early- to mid-1990s". Crowded is understatement. The mini jacked up the number of basic configurations from eight to 14. However, when looking at all available SKUs, including two colors and carrier-specific models, the number jumped to 54.
Apple solders RAM into new Mac mini to block memory upgrades
This week, Apple unveiled a number of new and updated products. The latest additions to the iPad range were the crowd pleasers, while the iMac with Retina 5K Display was something of a headline-grabber. Yosemite was expected, but the Mac mini refresh came slightly out of the blue.
For anyone looking for a cheap way to get their hands on a Mac, it's a great starting point -- prices start at just $499. But you'd better make sure you select a model with enough RAM when you place your order -- Apple has taken steps that mean it is impossible for buyers to install more memory.
The iPad Air 2 is why tablet sales are falling
So yesterday Apple announced the latest iteration of its hugely popular iPad. I own a fourth gen model, and as someone who likes to be on the cutting edge, I was all set to snap up the new device. Except, what I saw didn't excite me or give me a killer reason to drop $600+.
Tablet sales are slowing, and a large chunk of the reason for that can be laid squarely at Apple's door. While the iPad Air 2 will appeal to first time buyers, businesses, or people looking to upgrade from inferior tablets, it just doesn't offer enough to get existing iPad owners like me to upgrade. But it's thinner! It's lighter! So what? I'm not a frail old lady, or cursed with a muscle wasting disease. My iPad 4 is hardly a major weight, and to be honest, I like my devices to have a bit of heft to them anyway.
Apple launches iPhone 6, 6 Plus in China, Samsung brings Galaxy Note 4 to US, UK
Today is a big day for both Apple and Samsung, as the two are launching their latest flagships in three of the largest smartphone markets: iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus officially hit China, and Galaxy Note 4 arrives in US and UK. It's a "finally" moment in both cases, as the handsets were announced more than a month ago.
For Apple, having its new iPhones officially available for sale in China, the largest smartphone market, is a huge opportunity to boost sales in what could very well be its best quarter of the year. The pair had to launch later in China this year, due to regulatory hurdles. Among other things, the local government has forced Apple to beef up the security of iOS 8 to give the new iPhones its nod of approval.
How to create a bootable OS X 10.10 Yosemite USB drive
There are times when you may want to avoid using App Store or the built-in recovery mode to install OS X 10.10 Yosemite. So, Apple continues to give you the option of creating a bootable USB drive. You can use it anytime and anywhere to get the operating system running, quickly, on any compatible Mac. An Internet connection is not even required as everything you need is already on it.
Creating a bootable OS X 10.10 Yosemite USB drive is very easy. All you need is a Mac, as the tools provided for the process are only available in OS X, and a USB drive with a capacity of 8 GB (or more, depending on what you have lying around), as the setup file is rather large. I will also explain how to use a dedicated third-party tool, in case you decide that this option suits you better.
Tablet showdown: iPad Air 2 vs Nexus 9
Apple has released the much-anticipated iPad Air 2, updating its beloved iPad Air with an all-new look and beefed-up specs. But how does the iPad Air 2 compare to Google's just-released Nexus 9 tablet?
Let's break down the specs and take a look.
iPad Air 2 vs iPad Air: What's the difference?
Apple has released the much-anticipated iPad Air 2, updating its beloved iPad Air with an all-new look and beefed-up specs.
But how does the iPad Air 2 compare against its insanely successful predecessor, the iPad Air? Let's break down the specs and take a look.
Apple releases OS X 10.10 Yosemite -- flat, beautiful and free
Apple's OS X is a great operating system, but guess what? So is Windows. Yes, each are great in different ways, and it is OK to like both. Even if you prefer one over the other, it is silly to make fun of someone else's choice. In other words, don't be a fan-boy or bully.
Today is not about Windows however, as it is Apple's day to shine. The fruit-logo company has seen much success with OS X over the years; yes, success. Even though the operating system holds a very small percentage of the desktop market, it has impacted our overall culture and is instantly recognizable. Today however, Apple releases version 10.10 of OS X, dubbed Yosemite and it is quite possibly the most radical change to the Mac operating system. You see, much like iOS7, OS X is getting a "flat" overhaul.
Mac mini lives! Apple finally refreshes the cute little computer
When I worked at CompUSA, we had a dedicated Apple section filled with beautiful computers. I regularly sold Macs, but with nowhere near the frequency of the Windows-based computers. This was because Apple's machines were far more expensive than their Windows counterparts. This was reflected in the type of person that purchased a Mac -- they had money. As a commission-based salesman, this was awesome, as they never got rejected when applying for a store credit card or got denied when paying at the register.
Sadly, even though I sold Macs, I could not afford one. This was fine, as I was a Windows fan anyway, but still, it hurts to be a salesperson or factory worker that produces a product that is out of reach. This changed in 2005, however, with one magical product -- the Mac mini. It was impossibly small, super cute and best of all, affordable. When my mom needed a computer, I quickly talked her into the mini, as I was tired of fixing her Windows machine. Today, after what feels like an eternity, Apple finally refreshes the Mac mini line with Haswell processors and OS X Yosemite, while also bringing the starting price down to a mouth-watering $499.
iMac with Retina 5K display has the world's highest resolution display -- and a hefty price tag
In addition to the expected iPad Air 2 and iPad mini 3, Apple today announced the latest update to the iMac range. The iMac with Retina 5K display's killer feature is the screen which packs a breath-taking 14.7 million pixels into its 27 inches. With a resolution of 5120 x 2880, the new iMac has two thirds more pixels than a 4K display, and four times the number of pixels found on a regular 27 inch iMac. Despite the colossal number of pixels involved, Apple has switch to ultra-efficient LEDs to keep power consumption, and heat production, down.
The system comes with AMD Radeon R9 M290X graphics as standard, but this can be upgraded to AMD Radeon R9 M295X graphics. This is backed up by 8GB of RAM and a 1TB Fusion Drive, and there is the option of upgrading various components if you're happy to part with a little extra cash.
Apple announces the iPad Air 2 and iPad mini 3 -- thinner and faster
As is the case with all Apple announcements these days, rumors, speculation and leaks were rife ahead of the official iPad event, and pretty much all of what we were expecting to be revealed today, was revealed.
We expected Apple to refresh its iPad Air and iPad mini tablets, and that's what we got in the shape of the iPad Air 2, and the iPad mini 3.
Watch the Apple iPad Air 2 and iPad mini 3 launch on a Windows PC
Apple always streams its major events live, but restricts them to existing users of Apple products.
If you want to watch today's launch of the Apple iPad Air 2 and iPad mini 3, you need to be viewing on Safari 5.1.10 or later on OS X v10.6.8 or later; Safari on iOS 6.0 or later. Streaming via Apple TV requires second or third-generation Apple TV with software version 6.2 or later. However, there is a way around this.

Webcam Capture 1.6
Simple layout and main features
You are welcomed by a clean user interface that embeds several configuration settings to tinker with.
The program gives you the possibility to check the available webcams, turn on or off the webcam, use the built-in button for capturing images from your webcam, as well as view information about the date and time when the picture was taken.
What's more, you can upload the snapshots to PhotoBucket, ImageShack, Imgur, or TinyPic, and export them to BMP, JPEG, PNG, GIFF, or TIFF file format.
Other notable features worth being mentioned are represented by the possibility to use the built-in image viewer, make the tool remain on top of other utilities, start, stop, or refresh the camera streaming mode, and view the current frame rate.
Last but not least, you are allowed to set the frame rate, pick the image quality, use hotkeys for a better control over the entire process (they cannot be reassigned), check your screen resolution, as well as take screenshots with your desktop activity in a full screen mode or select the desired region.
During our testing we have noticed that Webcam Capture carries out the task pretty quickly and provides good image quality. Since there aren't any configuration settings, even less experienced users can set up the dedicated parameters with minimum effort.
Bottom line
All things considered, Webcam Capture proves to be a simple-to-use tool that comes bundled with a handy set of features for helping you take snapshots with the aid of your webcam.

Parents can make healthful eating fun for kids
Studies have shown that we develop our eating habits early in life, according to lead author Lenna Ontai, UC Cooperative Extension specialist in the Department of Human and Community Development at UC Davis.
"We know that it is not enough to just teach parents what to do. We have to support them in how they can take that knowledge home and use it effectively," said Ontai.
Healthy, Happy Families provides parents with practical information about how children develop and tips for raising a healthy and happy child. It includes fun and easy activities for parents to do with their preschool-aged children to promote healthful eating.
Children who spend more time with their parents tend to be happier and learn better, the authors write. They recommend eating together as a family to help children learn to make healthy food choices. Letting children help plan and prepare meals helps them develop new skills. Children also learn social skills during family meals such as talking and listening.
For cooking with kids, they recommend
- Explaining why it's important to wash our hands.
- Setting up an area for the child that is away from the stove and oven.
- Using a low table or safe step stool.
- Letting the child taste.
- Using child-sized utensils.
- And most of all, making it fun!
In a fun way, parents can create a healthy learning environment and teach their children healthful habits that will last a lifetime.
"Helping parents tune into their children's development and supporting positive interactions around food makes a big difference as children grow," Ontai said.
The Healthy, Happy Families workbook is available in packages of 10 for $15 in English and is now available in Spanish as Familia sana, familia feliz in Spanish. There is also a companion publication for teachers called the Healthy, Happy Families for Teachers curriculum. All three publications can be ordered at http://anrcatalog.ucdavis.edu.
At the end of the school year, we celebrate success
As the school year comes to a close, the schools we work with are humming with end of the year festivities. Students are looking forward to summer break, but always ask if we will be on campus teaching nutrition next school year. The answer is an enthusiastic yes!
As we say our temporary goodbyes for the summer, we've been reflecting on all of the wonderful experiences we've had. UC CalFresh staff really enjoy collaborating with teachers dedicated to helping children and families build healthier lifestyles. It's a joy to see children learn to make healthier choices over the school year.
Here are some of the highlights from our work in community nutrition education that we couldn't wait to share!
Teaching Yokomi elementary students how to build a healthy body
Trying new foods at Columbia elementary
Learning about edible plant parts at Sunshine Day
Teaching 3rd graders to choose "anytime" foods at Farm and Nutrition Day
The above images capture just a glimpse into the exciting world of nutrition education. This year we've celebrated alongside parents who have earned a certificate in our class series, helped establish nutrition corners to promote healthy eating, and so much more! We can't wait to see what next school year holds!
To learn more about the nutrition education happening in Fresno County, visit the UC CalFresh blog.
UC Cooperative Extension supports healthy school environments
When I was in elementary school, an upcoming field trip meant we were selling candy bars. Around the holidays, it was not uncommon to have your pick from five dozen cupcakes at the school party. Now that I am in nutrition education, my eyes grow wide when I think back to all of the high-sugar, high-fat foods we brought into the classroom.
With that in mind, I take a lot of pride in the fact that the UC Calfresh Nutrition Education Program in Fresno County is creating healthier school environments.
A healthy school environment includes:
- Nutrition education for students and their parents
- Physical activity
- Healthy lunches
- School wellness policies that support healthy fundraisers and celebrations
- An environment that promotes the benefits of healthy choices
The list can go on and on!
In addition to supporting all of the above, UC CalFresh has been working with school administrators, teachers and food service staff to "brand" the cafeteria and classrooms as healthy spaces. This is accomplished through distributing nutrition corners.
Nutrition corners are essentially the materials to create nutrition bulletin boards in school cafeterias. They are updated regularly with nutrition and physical activity information for students, teachers and parents. Information on seasonal produce, recipes, student work and MyPlate decorate the corners.
Nutrition corners are also posted in classrooms, school libraries, teacher lounges and common areas.
Here are a few of the most recently added corners:
Did I mention students love reading nutrition corners?
A healthy environment that supports nutrition and physical activity is key to the health of the families in the Central Valley. For more information on the way we are creating healthier school environments, visit the UC CalFresh Fresno County blog.
What does 'eating right' really mean?
But the truth is, dietary advice is nothing new. Some of our rules for eating date back to ancient times as part of religious teachings, and food traditions are central to our understanding of culture. What is new over the last century or so is the application of science to our diets, so that we can know more exactly what nutrition science tells us is best when it comes to filling our plates.
A new book by a UC Davis researcher argues that modern dietary advice is not merely scientific, but also continues to have cultural, ethical and moral messages attached to it.
"Eating Right in America: The Cultural Politics of Food & Health" analyzes how modern dietary reform movements in the United States do not just tell us how to eat right, but how to become a good person and a good citizen. Can eating a certain way make us into different, somehow better people? And who defines what sort of people we should strive to become, though improved eating? Author Charlotte Biltekoff calls for changing the way we think about what it means to "eat right."
The book analyzes four dietary reform movements over the last century:
- the rise of domestic science and home economics,
- the national nutrition program during World War II,
- the alternative food movement, and
- the anti-obesity movement.
These reform movements cover nutritional advancements such as the science of cooking, the discovery of vitamins, the shift in emphasis from contagious to chronic diseases, and the increasing importance of diet and lifestyle as a part of health. The book examines how dietary ideals have shifted, how social ideals have shifted alongside them — and the relationship between the two. Notions of middle class identity, good citizenship and individual responsibility each have been mixed in with nutritional advice before it is served to the public, according to the author.
Rose Hayden-Smith, leader of UC ANR's Sustainable Food Systems strategic initiative and a historian of gardening, said she can't wait to read this book.
"This whole idea of both empirical and ethical considerations of food choices really makes sense to me, rooted in the Progressive Era," she said. "All of these scientific advances don't matter if people don't adopt them. So I think it's really important for scientists to understand the cultural context into which their work is going."
Beth Mitcham, UC Cooperative Extension specialist in the Department of Plant Sciences at UC Davis, was intrigued by a presentation given by Biltekoff at UC Davis recently.
"This expands my way of thinking about the struggles we have with food choices and the potential for complicating well-intentioned messages," she said. "We can't ignore the scientific evidence that food choices have a huge impact on our health, but we must also realize when the things we're saying are charged with judgments."
In a recent interview on Capital Public Radio, Biltekoff pointed out how analyzing history can shed light on difficult truths.
"History is such a great tool for learning to see things differently," Biltekoff said. "The history that I tell in the book suggests that we worry so much about what is good to eat because of the social stakes involved in 'eating right.' Because it's not just about our physical health, but also about our sense of self and about our social standing. There's a lot at stake that we may not be conscious of, but really is part and parcel of the conversation about 'good' food."/span>
Developing a taste for fruits and vegetables
If I told you I've found the secret to overcoming picky eaters, you'd probably look at me puzzled. How could I have found the secret and NOT SHARED IT YET?!
Unfortunately, there is no "secret." However, there are many ways to encourage children and even adults to develop a love of fruits and vegetables.
UC CalFresh works with low-income families to encourage healthy food choices through nutrition education and healthy taste testing.
Taste testing has been a helpful tool in providing children and their parents an opportunity to explore foods they wouldn't have otherwise tried. Sometimes they have had the fruit or vegetable before but didn't enjoy the way it was prepared. A fresh approach with a new recipe can mean all the difference!
For great recipes, check out MyPlate's Pinterest page. They offer recipes like:
Green beans with almond gremolata (pictured above) and provide clever ways to prepare foods like watermelon kabobs (pictured below)
Allow children to take part in developing healthy meals and snacks by giving them a fun name. A child participating in our recent Healthy Lifestyles Fitness Camp shared her favorite healthy snack in her nutrition journal. She enjoys eating what she calls "ants on a raft."
Enjoy the bounty of healthy fruits and vegetables available this season. Try something new! Even better yet, try a food you haven't enjoyed in the past, but prepare and serve it in a new way.

NEW YORK (AP) -- Starbucks plans to turn more of its cafes into a destination for get beer and wine in the evenings.
The coffee company says it is looking to expand alcohol sales to "thousands of select stores" over the next several years.
The chain first offered beer and wine at one of its Seattle cafes in 2010. It's now in about 26 cafes, with plans to reach 40 by the end of the year.
The cafes with alcohol also serve a variety of small dishes, such as flatbreads and bacon-wrapped dates.
It's part of the chain's push to boost sales after the morning rush hour. To attract more afternoon customers, for instance, the company recently introduced new sandwiches and salads.
There are about 11,000 Starbucks stores in the U.S.

When XCOM: Enemy Unknown was revealed earlier this year, series fans seemed to get behind this re-imagining. Most of them, anyway. Change is scary -- I get it. Sure, there are some changes involved when updating a 20-year old title, and even more on top of that when you consider that the title is also coming to consoles. But as I saw in our first hands-on preview with the game, change can be good.

This was an incredible experience, a lot of fun and romantic!!
Enjoy a magical, moonlit view of Manhattan aboard the schooner Adirondack. On this sail, you'll experience the splendor of the New York City skyline at night under the bright, radiating moonlight.
Some moonlit sights during the sail will include:
- The sensational city lights across the Manhattan skyline — fantastic views of the city from the Empire State Building to the Financial District
- Ellis Island, welcoming immigrants to America from 1892 to 1954
- The Statue of Liberty, proudly bearing the torch of American freedom
The captain will be shutting off the engines and setting sail for as much of the trip as possible.
Complimentary champagne, wine, beer and soda will be provided. (Note: A few rounds will be served, but it is not an unlimited booze-cruise. The aim is to create an elegant, relaxing, peaceful and safe experience for all guests.)
Food is not served during the sail, but please feel free to bring your own picnic.

Originally from Omagh, Co Tyrone, he was best known for being one of the very few high profile Catholic unionist politicians in Northern Ireland.
However, before his entry into politics, Sir John was a familiar name as a decorated war hero of the Second World War and a leading business figure.
A member of the Irish Guards, he was awarded the prestigious Military Cross for his actions in leading his crew to safety after their tank came under fire from the Germans.
He was promoted to the rank of captain, and after the war left the army to become an RUC inspector.
Sir John also headed the Northern Ireland Housing Executive and was the first chairman of the Northern Ireland Forum for Political Dialogue.
He stood for the Ulster Unionist Party and was elected representative to the Assembly in 1998, representing the North Down constituency. He went on to hold the position of Deputy Speaker of the Assembly.
Sir John received many awards during his lifetime - he was knighted by the Queen in 1998 and also held the title of Deputy Lord Lieutenant of County Down.
In 2007, he was awarded with the French military decoration Croix De Guerre for actions during World War II.
He was an impressive character and Northern Ireland owes him a great debt.UUP leader Mike Nesbitt
He was an impressive character and Northern Ireland owes him a great debt.
UUP leader Mike Nesbitt
Ulster Unionist Party leader Mike Nesbitt said Sir John was "one of a kind".
He said: "It is rather poignant that on the very day we complete a European Election count to return Northern Ireland's MEPs to Brussels, we should learn of the death of a man who liberated that city 70 years ago.
"Sir John achieved success in a number of fields. He was a war hero, a great public servant and a leading catholic unionist.
"I had the pleasure of working with Sir John when he was Director of the Institute of Directors.
"The last time I was with him was at a branch meeting of the Party in Killyleagh last year.
"He was barely mobile and said he was there simply to support me.
"I was humbled by that gesture and in his death I am inspired to deliver better politics as a tribute to his memory.
"He truly was one of a kind and we are all the poorer for his passing. My deepest sympathies go out to his family and many friends."
Sir Reg Empey, former leader of the UUP, also paid tribute to him saying Northern Ireland would be a poorer place due to his passing.
"It was the variety and breadth of his achievements. He was a decorated soldier and commanded a tank in the Second World War," he said, before discussing his career in business, law enforcement and politics.
"All in all, he made a tremendous contribution to public life and commercial life in Northern Ireland.
"I remember him because of his charm - he was a delightful person, he was well-read, he was courteous.
"His breadth of vision and knowledge made him a very entertaining person to talk to - and to be in his company socially or indeed, politically."
Sir John died at a nursing home in Co Down, close to his family home in Killyleagh.

As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.
