Is the Stock Market Too High? | |
Event Type: Adult Program Age Group(s): Adults Date: 1/30/2014 Start Time: 7:00 PM End Time: 8:30 PM Description: Presented by Joseph Johnson of Raymond James Financial Services. March 2009 the Dow Jones Industrial average hit a low of 6,547.10. Almost 5 years later the Dow is at 16,560. That increase represents an increase of over 39%. The question becomes is the stock market too high? And, how can I protect my assets and still participate in the current growth trend of the market? Many retirement planning calculators project a portfolio's future value based on historical returns. However, past performance is no guarantee of future results, and you should take any such assumptions with a grain of salt. Mr. Johnson will talk about ways you can use technical analysts to limit your downside exposure.

Of Montreal tours with Janelle Monae; Paul and Ringo reunite; Eminem stays at No. 1
By David Malitz
- It should be one of the fall's most exciting and over-the-top tours - zany indie-electro troupe Of Montreal will hit the road with on-the-verge R&B star Janelle Monae. Monae appears on two tracks on Of Montreal's upcoming album, "False Priest," so expect a bit of on-stage collaboration. The tour comes to 9:30 club on Sept. 13 and 14.
- Ringo Starr turned 70 yesterday and his birthday concert at Radio City Music Hall featured a very special guest - Paul McCartney. The former Beatles performed "Birthday" together at the end of the concert, which also featured the likes of Yoko Ono, Steve Van Zandt, Angus Young, Jeff Lynne, Nils Lofgren and Max Weinberg.
- Eminem had no problem holding onto the top spot in the Billboard 200. Second week sales of "Recovery" topped 300,000 and went over 1 million total in just two weeks. The-Dream debuted at No. 3 while 3OH!3 bowed at No. 4.

January 22, 2015
The location of this hotel cannot be beaten. You are close to everything. Staff is super nice, rooms are clean.
Lots of noise and barking dogs early a.m.
January 20, 2015
One room had 3 dogs that continuously barked starting at 6:15 a.m. Kids running in hallway till 12:50 am Heard everybody taking showers as it seemed the water ran down the pipes in my room. Bed was hard. Shuttle in the morning was great but had a hard time getting and finding the shuttle back from the Dallas market in the evening. Took a taxi one time and walked another evening. Just totally frustrating staying here and will never stay here again.

phone and answering machine, particularly in regard to gigahertz, bites or whatever they are. The price goes up the more you get but how many are necessary for normal use around the house and deck? |
Follow-Up Postings:
At this point in time the price goes up mostly because the low gigahertz phones are analog--not digital-and are often subject to more interference. I've gone through so many cordless phones I can't remember, but the new DECT 6.0 phones are by far the best in my living situation. I number of companies such as Panasonic, V-Tech, and Uniden make them. I first bought the V-Tech because of looks, but found the looks much superior to the operation. I bought the Undiden at Costco for $79 and it came with 2 or 3 other phones you can place around the house. I haven't seen any 2-line DECT 6.0 phones yet, but in this age of cell phones I doubt many people would need 2-lines. But I will certainly say the sound quality and comfort of Uniden DECT 6.0 is far and away superior to any cell phone I have ever used in sound quality and talking comfort--with the obvious exception you can't talk 10 miles from your house:-) Greg |

Making your own lotions, salves, and creams is a lot of fun. Great for your family or for gifts. A bonus when you use (...) essential oils as they become real helps for lots of folks.
If you have favorite recipes or techniques and are willing to share them please go to our SUBMIT page and send them in and we will work hard to get them on this webpage. Thanks
Tamalu Watkins submitted this very interesting article originally to Everything (...).
Basic Body Cream Recipe
(all measurements are by weight)
· Hard oils:
2 ½ oz virgin coconut oil
½ oz cocoa butter
· Soft oils:
4 oz grapeseed oil or almond
2 oz olive oil
· 1 oz beeswax, grated
· 9 oz distilled water
· 45 drops essential oil (opt.)
Place coconut oil in a 16-oz heat-proof measuring cup. Add cocoa butter and beeswax. Put the cup containing the oil and beeswax into a pot partially filled with water, place over medium heat and stir with a chopstick or fork until the oil and beeswax melt and dissolve, becoming one liquid.
Remove from heat and add grapeseed (or fractionated coconut) and olive oils. Allow to cool to body temperature. As it cools, the mixture will thicken and become opaque. Stir as it cools to keep the consistency smooth. If it cools too much, just reheat it.
While the oil mixture is cooling, warm the distilled water in another heat-proof measuring cup in the hot-water bath. Test for body temperature with a clean finger.
When the oil mixture and water have both reached body temperature, pour the water into a blender or mixing bowl (I use a mixing bowl and stick blender) and add optional water-soluble ingredients such as vitamin C. Process at high speed. If using a high-power blender such as a Vita Mixer, set it on low. Slowly add the oil mixture by pouring a thin drizzle into the whirling water. It will begin to sputter and thicken. Continue to process until the oil and water have blended together into a thick, creamy liquid. This may take 5-10 minutes in a blender or food processor. If using a high-power blender, it may take 20-30 seconds. It may take 15 minutes with a stick blender. This process, called emulsification, is the secret to creams.
Scoop the cream into a 32-oz measuring cup with a spout for easy pouring. If you are adding essential oils, do it at this point, making sure to stir them in well. Pour the cream into very clean, dry jars. Filling them to the top and leaving as little airspace as possible. Cap with tight-fitting lids and let sit overnight to allow the "flavors" to blend. Use a clean popsicle stick to dip out your cream if it is in a wide-mouth container, to prevent introduction of bacteria and spoilage.
Variations - Variations on the oils for this recipe are easy. As long as the amount of hard oil (solid when cool) totals 4 oz and soft oil (liquid) totals 6 oz, you can play with oils to make creams for different purposes. Have fun!
Other Ingredients - Optional ingredients include PABA for sun protection, MSM for cellular hydration and repair, and natural preservatives such as Grapefruit seed extract or vitamins A, C or E. Essential oils also act as preservatives due to their antimicrobial properties.

Fascinated by the human condition, award-winning writer and documentary filmmaker Jon Ronson has spent his life exploring curious events and meeting extraordinary people. He visits the RSA to deliver the next in our new series of RSA Commencement Addresses with his unique blend of intellect, charm and satiric wit.
The so-called 'commencement address' is a time-honoured tradition in universities and high schools across the US. A notable public thinker or doer is invited to give a speech to inspire, galvanise and advise an eager class of scroll-clutching graduates about to face the world. But in the YouTube era, videos of these heartfelt doses of hard-won wisdom have reached a much wider audience than just graduates, and countless moving and practical commencement insights have swept the globe.
We are delighted to be welcoming leading lights from around the world to give a uniquely RSA spin on this transatlantic institution, and to an all-inclusive demographic (as always, everyone is welcome at RSA events, from high-school students to centenarians).
Speaker: Jon Ronson, award-winning writer, journalist and documentary-maker Chair: Matthew Taylor, chief executive, RSA

14 Therefore, dear friends, [because you] are waiting for these [things], make every effort to be found at peace, spotless and unblemished in him. | 14 So then, dear friends, since you are looking forward to this, make every effort to be found spotless, blameless and at peace with him. |
15 And regard the patience of our Lord as salvation, just as also our dear brother Paul wrote to you, according to the wisdom that was given to him, | 15 Bear in mind that our Lord's patience means salvation, just as our dear brother Paul also wrote you with the wisdom that God gave him. |
16 as [he does] also in all his letters, speaking in them about these [things], in which there are some [things] hard to understand, which the ignorant and unstable distort to their own destruction, as [they] also [do] the rest of the scriptures. | 16 He writes the same way in all his letters, speaking in them of these matters. His letters contain some things that are hard to understand, which ignorant and unstable people distort, as they do the other Scriptures, to their own destruction. |
17 Therefore, dear friends, [because you] know [this] beforehand, guard yourselves so that you do not lose your own safe position [because you] have been led away by the error of lawless persons. | 17 Therefore, dear friends, since you already know this, be on your guard so that you may not be carried away by the error of lawless men and fall from your secure position. |
18 But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him [be] the glory, both now and to the day of eternity. Amen. | 18 But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever! Amen. |

I read many discussions here recommending Foliage-Pro as a fertilizer. While I have not used it, apparently it is a good 9-3-6 liquid. I would like to point out that by using a bag of water soluble fertilizer, you can lower your costs to less than a tenth of the cost of F-P. Using Al's recommended rate of 1/4 teaspoon F-P in a gallon of water for each watering, this amounts to 30 ppm of N. At $42/gallon of F-P (current online price), this is 1.4 cents per gallon of mixed fertilizer. If you purchase a 25 lb. bag of 24-8-16 (I use Plantex Foliage purchased at BFG) for $35, your cost per gallon at Al's rate is now .13 cents. While Plantex Foliage does not have Ca or Mg, many growers have plenty of these elements in their water supply. Some growers may prefer pre-mixed fertilizer. I use a lot, and am willing to mix my own to save money. Marc |
Follow-Up Postings:
M...you only mentioned Ca and Mg specifically. Does it have the other 7 or 8 minor elements (such as zinc, etc) that FP has? |
Plantex Foliage label: https://msds.plantprod.com/document/10400/en/Label It has all the micros as F-P except cobalt. I am not affiliated with any products. Just trying to return the favor here and help others save money. Marc |

Looks like you are trying to be very helpful..Thank you. For me if any mix is cheaper at the expense of all the elements that Foliage Pro has, I would not use it...But thank you... MIke |
I'm not that worried about cost, but each of us has their own methods. I grow many acid loving plants and found the acidification of water with controlled amounts of fertilizer worked great for my cacti. I soon adjusted to all my plants. Results have been spectacular. I use kelp to add the trace elements. If you wish to learn more check the article out. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Ammonium Nitrogen and Acidic Water for Xerophytic Plant Growth
Drew, Thank you for posting the link to the ammonium article. Might you be able to post a link to their other article relating to acidification? I could not find it online. Thank you. |
The reason Foliage Pro is more expensive is largely because it doesn't contain urea as a source of N. Instead its N comes mostly from nitrate. Urea is cheap. About 60 percent of the nitrogen in Plantex comes from urea. The article Drew linked to explains that urea is not a good source of N in the absence of soil microorganisms, which are not often present in container growing. |

ATTARI: Heavy security build up including deployment of Anti Terrorist Wing of Pakistan Rangers raised the alarm following which Indian security establishment swung into action and developed intelligence input of a possible strike on Pakistan side of Integrated Check Post (ICP) by militant outfits.
"Pakistan Rangers had not shared any intelligence input with us regarding strike by militants on their side of ICP" said Border Security Force (BSF) Inspector General (Frontier) Aditya Mishra while talking to TOI on Thursday. He said unusual build up across the border by Pak Rangers , presence of commandos of anti terrorist wing, armored vehicle on May 11 raised their concern and they developed their own intelligence input of terrorists attack.
He informed that the threat was till May 14th but BSF was in full state of preparedness and had activated its bunkers and other defense units. About the security of daily beating the retreat ceremony held simultaneously between BSF and Pakistan Ranger jawan's during which the international border gates were thrown open thus inviting much risk from across the border, IG said time to time BSF takes up the issue of security of ceremony with Pak Rangers Intelligence sources informed that they had the report that Pakistan based militant outfits could strike to derail the process of strengthening of economic relations between two nations after the functioning of ICP.
"But we still don't rule out similar threat in future" said souces. Meanwhile the widely publicized reports of threat to Pakistan side of ICP from militant outfits has not dampened the spirits of patriots who , like any other day, jostled to secure a place at viewers gallery at Attari to watch the daily beating the retreat ceremony. "We have come from Kurukshetra and will not return without watching the flag lowering ceremony just because of threat reports" said Area Manager of a private pharmaceutical company Amit Kumar who along with his newly wed wife Sonam was here on way to Dalhousie.

CureSearch for Children's Cancer funds and supportstargeted and innovative children's cancer research with measurableresults, and is the authoritative source of information and resourcesfor all those affected by children's cancer.
Most childhood cancer survivors don't develop heart problems. But certain types of chemotherapy and radiation can raise your risk for them. Here's what you need to know to assess your risk and help keep your heart healthy.
Survivors who received a type of chemotherapy called anthracyclines or radiation to the chest, spine, stomach, or whole body are at risk for heart problems. Risk is highest for those who had high treatment doses, especially if both chemotherapy and radiation were given before puberty.
These treatments can damage the heart and cause the following problems:
If severe, these problems can be deadly. But very few survivors develop severe heart problems. In fact, most survivors who received anthracyclines or radiation to the heart or nearby areas don't have any heart damage at all. Others have very mild changes in heart function or size that doesn't worsen over time.
Mild to moderate heart problems may not have any symptoms. Symptoms of more severe heart trouble include the following:
Be sure to tell your doctor right away if you have any of these symptoms.
The good news is that you can lower your risk for heart problems by keeping a healthy lifestyle, such as:
It's also important to keep up with your regular medical check-ups so that any heart problems can be caught and treated early. Thus, if you were treated with anthracyclines or chest radiation you should have a yearly check-up. In addition, you'll undergo certain heart tests, such as electrocardiograms or MUGA scans, every 1 to 5 years. Finally, you might also undergo periodic stress testing by a cardiologist and regular blood tests to check for other factors that can put you at risk.
Make sure that your primary care doctor knows if you were treated with anthracyclines or chest radiation so that steps can be taken to reduce stress on your heart. Some drugs, high fever, and pregnancy can increase stress on the heart.

I just moved into a new house and this growth is on one large branch of a big Lilac tree. Do I need to remove the branch? The whole tree? Thanks for any help. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Whether or not the entire tree needs to be removed is something that cannot be answered by the evidence of one picture. I can tell you that its presence means that it is killing the limb OR that there is already considerable deadwood in that limb. If the rest of the tree looks as bad as that limb does...put it out of its misery. Lilacs are notoriously prone to problems. If this one is a commanding presence in your yard, you should seek the expertise of an ISA (International Society of Arboriculture) certified arborist for an evaluation. |
- Posted by ken_adrian z5 (My Page) on Wed, Mar 13, 13 at 15:54
that fungus is decomposing dead wood ... i doubt it killed it.. cut it as close to the ground as possible .. and see what it does the rest of the year ... lilac are rejuvenated thru .. get this.. rejuvenation pruning ... a trunk that big.. should have probably been pruned out 10 to 15 years ago ... odds are.. nothing kills a lilac .. i have seen hundred year old trees in front of centennial farms .. just remove that part.. and odds are.. it will go gangbusters ... ken |
Thanks- it is a pretty big tree and that is the only limb effected. I will cut it out and keep my fingers crossed. |

BitFenix Prodigy Mini-ITX Chassis
The front of the Prodigy is dead flat with the large white expanse of SofTouch coated plastic offering you a single 5.25"Âť bay with the cover in place now, the black logo at the bottom and the thick black ring around the edge with venting to allow for intake to the chassis.
At the top, between the pair of FyberFlex composite handles, is a large removable mesh panel to allow the chassis to ventilate passively in the configuration in which it is shipped.
Under the front handle is a slide lock that will allow you to remove the mesh panel for access to mounting fans underneath of this.
There isn't a deep well under the mesh, rather just enough room to take care of mounting fans or a radiator to the steel in the middle with the pre-drilled holes in it.
The left side of the chassis offers a large ventilated area with the pattern of small round holes. You will soon see why this is in place, as it allows the video card you select to draw in fresh cool air to keep temperatures down inside of the Prodigy.
Behind the Prodigy you get an idea of the internal layout. There is a 120mm or 140mm fan mounting position above the rear I/O area. To the right is a pair of expansion slots with the PSU being mounted at the bottom if this chassis.
The right side of the chassis is plain white steel; that is until you run into the front I/O panel at the front edge of the panel.
The front I/O offers white power and reset buttons to blend into the chassis. Next to the headphone and microphone jacks are the power and HDD activity LEDS, leaving the pair of SuperSpeed USB 3.0 ports to end the list.
I mentioned that the FyberFlex handles absorb shock delivered to the chassis. They are not only the handles on top, but they are the feet for the chassis as well. On the floor of the chassis there is a removable and washable dust filter for the PSU and six screws for the HDD rack that I will get to later.

text: Kathak is one of the most olden forms of dance and today, it holds a special place in elements that form our rich Indian culture. Kathak is associated with North India and is usually performed by male or female. Amidst all the western styles of dance that are becoming popular today, Kathak still holds a special place in the minds and hearts of all ardent classical dance lovers. Learning Kathak requires immense hard work and dedication. It indeed takes years for one to practice this style of dance. One need a hard practice of almost five to six years to become a trained dance professional in Kathak. The origin of Kathak is not clearly known but it is a sacred form of dance and is performed in temples and shrines even today. Hence people who conduct Kathak dance classes are extremely devoted to this art and feel really passionate about. Kathak dance classes are many but it is necessary that the guru (teacher) that you learn from is a professional Kathak dancer. These dance classes help you to learn complex Kathak foot work which needs to be executed perfectly. The basic metrical cycle that is also known as tala in association with jatis or rhythmic patterns determines the execution of dance steps by the dancer. Some of the major Kathak professional dance classes in Mumbai and Delhi are: Nrityadhara Kathak Dance Classes (Mumbai), Guru Janki Prasad Shankarlalji Kathak Classes(Andheri, Mumbai), Sarfojiraje Bhosale Centre/Bharat College, Nalanda Dance Centre and Nritya Kala Mahavidyalaya (Vile Parle, Mumbai), Lasya (Santacruz, Mumbai), Triveni dance Company (Delhi), Florence Institute of Dance and Music (Delhi), Alaknanda Institute of Performing Arts (Delhi), Sangeet Sadhna Kendra (Delhi), Nitco School of music and dance (Delhi) etc. Introducing this dance style to your children at an early age is advisable so that he or she can perfect and master this art.

Off-site delegate participation provides an alternative way for congregations to participate in the business of the Association when their delegates cannot physically attend General Assembly (GA).
Even if they cannot be physically present at GA, congregational delegates, ministers, and credentialed directors of religious education can participate in the business of GA by serving as off-site delegates. Pre-registration is required. Questions and technical support: email@example.com
Off-site delegates can:
Using a telephone and a computer with high-speed access to the Internet, off-site delegates participate in the Plenary business sessions and mini-assemblies right along with the delegates who are on-site.
All delegates are required to submit a certified GA credential from their congregation. An off-site delegate will count against a congregation's total number of delegates allowed; so off-site participation is not recommended for congregations that can send a full delegation to attend GA in person.
Congregations are encouraged to provide resources for off-site delegates (ie., meeting space, technology, telecommunication), as much as is possible.
In order to participate off-site, delegates must:
Registered off-site delegates will receive instructions via email regarding credentials and training.
Off-site delegates will also receive access to the complete set of recordings of GA workshops.
Off-site delegates are also asked to furnish a photograph of their congregation's banner for inclusion in the Virtual Banner Parade during the Opening Ceremony. If your congregation's banner isn't going to be physically present at GA you can send us a photo of your banner to firstname.lastname@example.com, which we'll display on the large screens in the plenary hall during the procession.
Please note the following:
Off-site delegates may vote online ONLY on business items in Plenary sessions or Mini-Assemblies. To vote for elected positions such as President and Moderator, off-site delegates must cast a written absentee ballot prior to GA. Certified congregations are mailed an absentee ballot for every delegate/vote to which they are entitled. To vote absentee, obtain a ballot from your congregation. More on UUA elections.
For more information contact email@example.com.
This work is made possible by the generosity of individual donors and congregations. Please consider making a donation today.

I am writing this to explain why we could not stay at this campground. In my opinion this park is quite over-rated by some of the previous reviewers. Today, after calling ahead to verify availability, we traveled to "check out" campgrounds for our next base camp (~ 50 miles from current campground). We were highly disappointed, not only in the sites themselves at this so called resort, but extremely so by the lack of courtesy by the hostess in particular. She was curt/ unwilling to take the time to check for us which sites would be available for the upcoming dates we were interested in reserving. After spending a few minutes walking thru the campground loop and river sites, which we then learned were actually unavailable for the dates we had discussed, we realized that there was little if any regard for us. We left and found a much nicer campground elsewhere, where the people running the office understand customer service. - RDR
To be accurate about this park, I would really have to give it two reviews. We stayed in one of the six riverside sites and they are beautiful. Parking is difficult, but if you relax and let their guide give instruction, you'll get in just fine. Our 35' was tight, but, we got in. Neighbor on right has a 40 and he made it also. To get out, you'll have to back out and turn around. Again, they have a guide to do it. These sites are level and very clean. A bit tight for the tow, but it works out. Staff is quite pleasant and helpful and I have seen none of the pickiness described below. They are having a bit of a problem with some power fluctuations that kicked a couple of people offline for a very short time. They are addressing that and I am sure it will be handled completely. It is a winding road that leads into the campground, but it was no problem towing. Next time, I would likely detach out on 101 before hand just to make it easier once we got here. I do not consider that a problem. The other review would be for the rest of the sites. All are adequate and differ in size capability. I would rank them as an 8 with no real objections. They are pet friendly. Our neighbors are back for about their eighth extended trip. The river is beautiful and you have good access. Water is low this year due to poor rainfall, but it is still great. Took the Rogue River jet boat tour yesterday and had a good time. Staff will arrange it for you and the boat picks you up at the lodge next door. The Oregon fires have let a little smoke into the area, but we have not found that uncomfortable at all. THANKS to the staff for a fine stay - leaving tomorrow. Gold River is a tiny town, but seems to have decent facilities and pretty good food. - jubilee32
This is a jewel of a campground. Very nice people to greet you and help you park. The jet boats usually stop here, but the low water level makes them stop next door where we went to get aboard. Good Wi-Fi and good Verizon service. All in all a very, very nice experience at this well kept park. - f94

Gold Beach RV Park is very clean, small, and in a great location just off Hwy 101 in downtown Gold Beach, OR. The rates are great. The grounds are immaculate and the bathrooms are very clean. It truly is a hidden jewel! There are restaurants, beaches, a park, and trails within minutes of the park. The park host will guide you in and get you set up. Their website is a must see. We will return soon! - Troy B
Big rigs stay away. We are only 35 foot long and we were way too big for this park. It is a converted residential lot, in the middle of a neighborhood. The house remains in the center of the property. Toad's must be dropped prior on the residential street. No parking for Toads except on the street. They have a number of "permanent" residents in older trailers. This would not be a bad park if you are under 20 feet with no slides. Area is grass, watered daily, including your rigs. We stayed 2 nights of the 7 we were scheduled for - no refund received. Just too small for us. Sadly when we made our reservations they did tell us they are big rig friendly, which they are not. Host was very friendly though not concerned about anything except being paid. - Full-Timer RV'er
Great little park. The owner has done a lot to fix it up and make it very charming. Showers were very clean and well maintained. There is limited space but that is properly advised. The park is a block off the highway with a buffer. Walk to local shopping and places to see. All hookups worked well. We would stay there again any time-24 foot trailer. - Trailering Daval

Did not stay here! We were not sure of the day of arrival yet but wanted to check availability for the time frame. The person I spoke to very rudely said to call back when I knew when what we were doing. If they were that rude on the phone I certainly wasn't going to give them my business. - RV_Jim
Well maintained park, older amenities that have been carefully kept up. There is sun, shade, walking trails and meadows for dogs. Short walk to the beach. There are some long timers and a good mix of open sites for travelers like us. Everyone, especially owners, very friendly. Bonus is the Black Forest Kitchen where they make and sell a mix of German meats. Also, they do a German Dinner in the restaurant, rabbit and salmon on our night was yummy. The Siren Cafe in Port Orford has great homemade muffins that are perfect for an early start north on 101. - Bikeynw
A three night stay, and not a bad campground. Not manicured real well, but we had a super site. Ask for site #2 in the ocean view section. Wife did laundry, but half the machines were not working. They have a German restaurant, but it was not open while we were there. We would stay again. - JJ & CC

This is a clean, quiet park. The 8 pull-throughs are near-level asphalt, narrow, in good condition, separated by narrow strips of grass. Some have shade. The back-in sites are grass and gravel, and can get muddy. Many have shade. Roads are asphalt, from adequate to wide, in very good condition. Staff are friendly and helpful. Verizon data service works well. Wi-Fi usually works well, but can drop out. I had no VHF weather radio reception. I measured 101 volts with the microwave on. The water pressure is low. - wjzcbn
Mostly a fishing camp for regulars. Only three sites for travelers. Not friendly. Sites too narrow; with our slides out there is not enough room for even a lawn chair. Trees need to be trimmed. Will not stay here again. - blackbeauty
Beautifully landscaped with trees, flowers, and manicured grass! Sites were blacktop and level. Park is shady, quiet, and on a creek. They have a large rec room with pool, ping pong, and a cafe on site for breakfast and lunch. The owner is very nice. Our only down side was the bathrooms looked old and dark, thus appearing unclean. Had a good nights' sleep. Will return. - number one

Have camped here before. Very handy to walk to the beach. You just pick a site and walk a couple of blocks to tell them what site you are in and pay for it. Had a AAA discount on the rate. The cable TV was very bad. Snowy, some channels were in black & white instead of color. - TeamElk-Rib
The proximity to the ocean is this park's best feature. A short walk through sea grass puts you on the beach and the surf can be easily heard from the lower level of the park. Utilities were good including wifi but several power pedestals appeared damaged. AT&T phone and data worked well in the area. Interior roads and sites are paved. Sites are close together, without privacy and not generously sized. Bathrooms were dirty. The rate is weekly. - never settled
Wish I could give this park a higher rating based on proximity and ease of beach access, but that is about all it has going for it. Now managed by a hotel 2 blocks up the street, it is clear they give little attention to the RV portion of the business. First, though they accept reservations, they do not pre-assign the sites based on rig length. Secondly, with 10 or 12 attempts we finally were able to get into one of the remaining sites, and that was after some scraping on a tree which should be trimmed or removed. Though adequate length, there was insufficient room to maneuver a big (39') 5th wheel. The concrete pad was thankfully level. We will likely look for an alternative location should we return to the area. - nw explorers

Nice clean quiet and shady park about 8 miles inland from Gold Beach. Riverfront sites available although we didn't have one. The roads through the park are tight. There is a clean clubhouse with TV and Wi-Fi service. The Wi-Fi at our site went in and out. The river is beautiful, with plenty of osprey to watch. Hydrojet boat tours pick up passengers down at the river dock for those wanting to take the tour. There is a fish cleaning station for fishermen. The laundry area looked to be very nice. We stayed here three nights. Very relaxing place! - PasoTravelSmiths
Beautiful campground on the Rogue River. We had a riverfront spot and it had lovely views. Landscaping well maintained. The staff was extremely accommodating. We stayed for a week and will be back, for sure. - borregoannie
We stayed at Kimball Creek Bend RV Resort for 3 nights. It is paradise. The owners are very friendly and accommodating. We stayed in our Super C, 42' motorhome, pulling an enclosed car trailer. The sites are lovely, grassy, level, and large. Had a concrete pad with picnic table. The facilities are clean, bathrooms and showers. The Rogue River is gorgeous. There is a boat dock for the guests. After touring the Oregon coast for 2 weeks, we happened upon this place. After all the traffic and tourist towns, KCB RV Resort was heaven sent. All the tension eased out of us and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. We will be back and will stay longer. - barleyfarmer

We enjoyed our stay here. Management is friendly and the park is clean and quiet--no road noise from busy 101. NO there is no cable TV, BUT when you can walk to the beach from your campsite, who needs cable? Basics are all here and worked well for us, but be aware this is not a first-class resort with lots of amenities. But if you want a quiet spot close to the beach and not too far from town, this is a good place to be. - TruBlu
We drove 30 miles up the coast in our toad to check this place out before trying to make a reservation because of two recent very negative comments at Yelp and Trip adviser. We ended up NOT make a reservation. First of all, RV Park reviews needs to downgrade info on this park. 87 sites?(more like a dozen) Big rig?(unless 32'is a big rig), no tv? Upon arriving, sign (handwritten)on office door, "No cable TV", we counted 9 rvs in various sites in the whole park and we were told for our 38 foot MH, only 2 were available (partial H/U)? They boast 87 spots, well most of the spots they had pulled a picnic bench in the way. When we asked about any of those we were told they were not available. The access roads are 60 feet wide, I just can't see where two 40' to 45' motorhomes wouldn't fit back to back. One site we drove by the water was spraying out of the bottom of the upright city water pipe, site blocked off. The management older woman and man were stiff, somewhat cordial but not accommodating (we were a week ahead of Labor day). Although we never mentioned neg reviews and we were there for the first time. Not sure if these two are owners or managers, but we would hate see other RVers make a long drive to just be disappointed. You will NOT get to pick your site. They do it for you and all of sudden 70-80 spots go down to 1 or 2. The only reason for all of this is expenses and maintenance or upgrades to water, sewer and electric are not in the cards. That being said, the number of sites at any given time are limited. It's a shame because they are so close to the beach with access and great ocean views. - road glide
Park is close enough to Highway 101 to be convenient, but avoid road noise. Roads are gravel with grass sites long enough for 37 foot RV with toad. Power, water, Wi-Fi, and cell (AT&T) were good. No sewer at longer sites. We pulled into a back-in site and had a great view of the ocean through the windshield. No shade, very open, no protection from the wind. Blew all the week we were there. We would stay here again. - kmgulf

This is a quiet campground in a beautiful, garden-like setting. The staff is super friendly and helpful. If this campground has any drawbacks, it is the outdated bathrooms and showers. They are just too old and too small to handle the number of people camping here. - cactuslady
Very nice little park with about 8 full hookups and a bunch of water only and tent sites. Friendly, accommodating, on site owners. Lush and tranquil, close to town and river, but out of the wind and fog. Acceptable wi-fi and cable TV. Good showers, no laundry but a good laundromat in town. Definitely not a parking lot experience. - Tesoro
We stayed here one night just to check it out and see if we liked it or not. We had a very nice time; there was not alot of campers; maybe it had to do with time we were there. Owner is very nice and gave us a lot if info on where and what to do. There is a small creek next to campground which you can walk down to. We saw two deer in camp. You can buy a small box of fire wood from $6 to $8. Only bad thing is there is a charge for each additional guests (first two free) and there is an additional charge for each pet per day. Other than that it's a great little spot. - 1hdmom

If I could rate this park with an 11, I would. Great staff and lots of them in the office and around the park working keeping it looking nice. Very helpful people. We planned on 3 nights and stayed for 5. You are only steps to a spectacular beach for combing, walking and enjoying! The sites are roomy and level. Washrooms spic and span. - gypsy parrotheads
Passport America rate of $19 for each night. We stayed here for 4 days and had great weather. We like homey places vs. cement, sterile parks so this was perfect for us. There are permanents but they were nice and clean enough. Sites are dirt/grass but level enough, we got satellite TV without any problem. WiFi is Great! A workkamper in the office, was super nice. We plan on coming back next year for Salmon fishing. Might just stay for a month. - forreal
This park is much too pricey, particularly for summer rates in May. First, it is a mile to the beach. Water view means a tidal creek and there is a lot of overgrowth between you and the water. Definitely not a swimming area. The beach is nice, but to get there you must take a path not well suited for those that may be uncomfortable with some rocks and stone. Definitely not handicap accessible. Grass/grave sites. Pull through are fine for big rig, but back ins for "water" view are tight and no space for parking toad. Staff was friendly. Lots of grassy areas to walk the pets. Pets loved the beach off-leash. Biggest issue is park doesn't merit the price. - OSUCowboy

Patient Advocate - page 2
Once again, I am being faced with a crisis involving patient advocacy. I am employed as a RN BSN faculty member and one of my clinicals is on a Med-Surg floor. I have witnessed so many unsafe... Read More
4Mar 13, '04 by fiestynurseJust read your post Barb and just about fell off my chair! This exact same thing happened to me. The VP of Nursing called the Dean of the local City College Nursing Program and had me removed from clinicals at the hospital. I had exercised my duty as a patient advocate by participating in an article for "Self" magazine. The stupid magazine mentioned the hospitals name and called them for a comment (I trusted that the journalist would protect my interests - wrong!) Prior to that, I had worked at this hospital for 12 years and left on good terms. Later, I was hired as an Adjunct Professor at the local City College. I was transitioning from bedside nursing to law. (Had recently gotten my law degree and was studying for the California Bar - if you think the NCLEX is tough!) I was teaching a Maternal Child Health class and loving it. It was really important to me to pass along my experience and knowledge. It felt good! The students liked me and I liked all of them very much. I was just getting my feet wet in a law firm and I was looking forward to maybe teaching some classes on the legal aspects of nursing or health care risk management. (I also have a certificate on Health Care Risk Management) Found out that I was really good at this teaching stuff. Was very excited about doing this on the side.
Then, the Dean asked me if I would help out with a clinical at the hospital. They didn't have many instructors with maternal child health experience. There was basically a shortage of instructors. I was a little reluctant about going back into the hospital, but how could I say no?
When the Dean called me into her office and told me what the hospital had done, I was stunned! Evidently, the hospital just made a large donation to the nursing school to expand their program. I understood the position that the Dean was put in, but I still think that she had no balls!
I did nothing at first, but it really bothered me and I had this law degree now and I was not the same nurse I use to be. My law degree greatly empowered me to stand up for my rights and the rights of others, especially nurses. So, I did one of the guttiest things that I have ever done in my entire nursing career , I went to the local news paper and told them my story. A few days later there I was on the FRONT page of the local paper!
The telephone did not stop ringing for a few days. Nurses calling me non-stop to give me support. I still have nurses come up to me in the grocery store or the bank. The Nursing School has not had me teach a class since then - my greatest loss. It's been over 2 years now and I have no regrets. I am currently in a job that I love.
Barb - I am not saying that you do what I did, but there is something deeply disturbing about all of this. Nursing Instructors have to be given the right to speak freely on the issues that effect nurses and patients. I don't like what is happening in our nursing schools!
P.S. This is only for Barb - My passion and emotions are what make me a successful nurse attorney. Don't ever lose that! -
2Mar 14, '04 by barb4575I had PM'd you yesterday and you responded here...I appreciate the support you have offered and sorry that someone else went through this too. This was my fifteenth clinical group and something I had never experienced before and never care to repeat. The funny part about it is that it has backfired on this VP of Nursing as many students informed me that they never planned to work there after graduation and definitely aren't doing so now. I had decided to leave this college about three weeks before this occurrence due to it's disorganization and the lack of commitment to the students that I have witnessed. I kept hoping that it would change, but it hasn't yet and don't see that happening any time soon. The Dean hoped that I would stay, but I also think she understands my position. Regardless, I have to do what is healthy for me. I will continue to give my all to those students I do have, but the academic political arena is not for me...and that is everywhere. There are many avenues in which to teach....for me, it is a calling, just as nursing is too. But, I feel certain that God would not want me to remain in this situation...
I know that the local media would not be an avenue for me, but I have taken action in a legislative sense. I have also done that before even if it did take four years to see a significant change.
I can see where you get your screen name now...lol,

It is truly wonderful to find out how many nurses there are who are so active in patient advocacy!

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
If you don't use your coupons before they expire, they're still worth the money you paid for them for an extra three months.
GrabOne FaceValue gives you another three months after your coupons expire, making it even easier to enjoy businesses all over New Zealand.
How does it work?
- A coupon is valid up until and including the expiry date printed on the coupon.
- If you don't use it before the expiry date for whatever reason, the coupon retains the value you paid for it for an additional three months.
- This means you can turn up to the business up to three months after the coupon has expired and put the money you spent to buy that coupon towards the service or experience printed on your coupon.
For example, if you spend $50 on a $100 dining voucher but don't use it before the expiry date, you will still be entitled to $50 worth of food and beverage services at that business for an additional three months.
The same goes for coupons without monetary values assigned to them. For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still put the money you spent on the coupon towards a bungy jump, for another three months. Remember, the FaceValue of your coupon can only be put toward the service or experience printed on your coupon.
A few things to note:
- FaceValue applies to all deals that display the FaceValue icon. If the icon is not on a deal, FaceValue does not apply.
- It's always best to use your coupon before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your coupons are about to expire.
- During the FaceValue period, your coupon can only be put towards the service stated on the coupon.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the FaceValue of your coupon can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- FaceValue does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- The conditions on your coupon still apply during the FaceValue grace period.

'There is no mayor's school,' so McGinn learns on the job
Nine candidates are vying to be Seattle mayor. Times City Hall reporter Lynn Thompson sat down recently with incumbent Mayor Mike McGinn to give voters a chance to hear what's important to him. The answers have been edited for length.
Mike McGinn
Age: 53
Occupation: Seattle mayor, attorney
Education: B.A. economics, Williams College, 1982; law degree, University of Washington, 1992
Home neighborhood: Greenwood
Family: Married to Peggy Lynch; three children
Hobbies: basketball, vegetable gardening
Q: You were elected in 2009. What have you learned, and what can we expect if you win a second term?
A: You have to remember that when I came in, we had really big budget deficits and a lousy economy. I had to choose department directors and get to know what the departments' strengths and weaknesses were. I also tried to deepen ties to the community. It was really getting to understand the city.
After the first year, that's when I really amped up the town halls, the neighborhood business-district tours and industry roundtables. That was a great way to hear from people what mattered to them. People's words were with me when I sat around the table making hard decisions on the budget.
A final point. I review the correspondence that goes out of the mayor's office. That was a really important way for me to see how departments are responding to the public.
There is no mayor's school. I'm learning all the time the ways in which the mayor can move the dial on the issues people care about.
Q: What would you do to ensure the Seattle Police Department (SPD) has strong leadership and undertakes the work of reform?
A: The things I just talked about — connecting the community with the department and leadership in city government — that's been my objective with SPD as well. We have an acting chief, Jim Pugel. Pugel's directions are clear: Work with the monitor, implement the settlement agreement (with the Department of Justice).
The other thing that will help is the appointment of the Community Police Commission. This is historic. We have critics of the department and union members sitting at the same table with other community leaders.
Q: Seattle has a $1.8 billion backlog in deferred maintenance for transportation infrastructure such as arterial streets and bridges. That's despite a $365 million Bridging the Gap levy passed in 2006 that was meant to catch us up. How would you address that?
A: Let's be really clear. This is the legacy of decades of elected leaders prioritizing shiny new megaprojects over basic maintenance, and I've been trying to reverse that trend. I have prioritized basic infrastructure, the seawall, South Park Bridge. We have taken over $30 million in savings from the Spokane Street project and new excise-tax revenue and put it into basic maintenance.
That's not going to be enough, given the size of this. Renewing the levy will help. I've also worked with other mayors and elected officials from around the state to support a local-funding option that will also fund transit. It may not pass because the Legislature is holding the local transit and street funding hostage to megaprojects.
Q: What's your strategy for getting through a crowded primary?
A: I'm going to speak about what we've done and what we're going to do. We've balanced the budget. We've added to the city's rainy-day fund while protecting human services and public safety. We've also got a transit master plan under way. We've put more money into education through the Families and Education levy. We've supported our libraries. And we're going to keep working to expand broadband, which is infrastructure for the future. And we'll work every day on jobs and public safety.
Q: How would you balance growth with quality of life and protecting single-family neighborhoods?
A: We need to make sure we continue to invest in parks and open space. It's also very important to invest in transit. As we see growth, we're not going to be able to accommodate our mobility needs by cars alone. We need to make it easier and safer for people to walk, take transit and ride bicycles.
Q: It seems ironic that you criticized shiny new megaprojects over basic maintenance when you want to build light rail to Ballard and put an expensive new bridge over the Ship Canal. Isn't that a shiny new project?
A: These are substantial lifts, but they are nowhere near the multibillions that the state is trying to find for other projects. If we look at where our choke points are in the city, the Ship Canal is a huge one. We're talking about a bridge that would support transit, biking and walking. That would relieve the pressure on the other bridges for auto traffic as well. For me, this is a basic infrastructure project for a growing city.

The View Late in the Season Towards the Smith River Falls and the old Excelsior Factory
The Front Bay Park project is an undertaking by the Wolfeboro Conservation Commission, committed members of the public, and donors large and small, to plan, layout, and construct a recreational area park open to all. Full ADA compliance (Americans with Disabilities Act) is one of the project's goals for the principal and majority of the features planned for the site. The park's plans call for walking paths, a gazebo-style shelter, a small boat pull-out, resting areas and benches, picnic spaces and tables throughout the nearly 11 acre site. Funding for the project is entirely privately raised, with no federal or state monies solicited. The foundational grant of $30,000 from an anonymous Wolfeboro resident is accompanied by a $30,000 challenge grant contingent upon raising an additional $60,000 by March, 2012.
[UPDATE: Challenge met, all grant monies received, the park project is fully funded].
The raw site as it was in June, 2011 is described on the relevant
Local Conservation Assets
page on this site. Records of donations to the build out costs of the project are described on the
Funding and Donations
page. Progress reports of the work of building the park are described on the
Progress Reports
Local press reports are the bedrock for the publicity of local, community based projects such as this. In
The Granite State News
the Wolfeboro Conservation Commission enjoys the benefit of an enlightened editor and a percipient publisher both of whom understand and appreciate the importance of local ecology, not only for its own sake, but also for the continuing economic health of this tourist-centered town. The
Granite State News
maintains a searchable database of articles about events and institutions in Wolfeboro. Please visit the
Salmon Press website

They're Ready for Spring (March, 2012)

You know how there are some proposed film projects you just hear about for years but never seem to get going? A new big screen version of the classic "Tarzan" by Edgar Rice Burroughs is one of those. Well, now we might finally have some progress–although other directors have circled the project, Vulture is saying that David Yates is definitely set to make this his next project. Yates is best known for having directed the last four Harry Potter films.Warner Brothers, which produced those films, is also making the Tarzan movie; considering how much money the Harry Potter movies made, you can understand their fondness for Yates.
"Tarzan of the Apes" is about a British boy raised by apes in an African jungle after his parents die. Things get complicated when an attractive American woman shows up and the adult Tarzan falls for her. He leaves the jungle to follow her (in later books he gets sick of civilization and he and Jane return to live in the jungle). In the 1930s, there were a series of popular Tarzan movies starring Olympic swimmer Johnny Weissmuller. Another Burroughs's novel adaptation, "John Carter" was a huge flop for Disney this summer, but that apparently has not scared off WB.
If there's now a director then maybe casting isn't too far away? Vulture's sources say that Yates has met with Henry Cavill, Charlie Hunnam, and Alexander Skarsgard. While he is indeed loin cloth ready, I doubt Cavill will do it–he's already locked into a WB franchise as Superman, so I don't know if they want to spread him that thin or if he wants to take on another franchise type character. Hunnam has been in a number of movies and will next be seen in Guillermo del Toro's "Pacific Rim" but is probably known to more people for his work on TV's "Sons of Anarchy." Skarsgard has been doing movies, too, but is also known for his TV work, on HBO's "True Blood."
Hmmm…I think Skarsgard would be the obvious choice, but I kind of like the idea of Hunnam. Other suggestions welcome.
