KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — A southwest Missouri man accused of plotting attacks at a movie theater and Walmart store legally bought the guns he allegedly planned to use, despite being forced to undergo a psychiatric exam three years ago after stalking a store clerk he said he planned to kill, authorities said.
Blaec Lammers, 20, was arrested last week after his mother told police she feared he was planning an attack. Authorities say Lammers told investigators he planned to open fire during a showing last weekend of the new "Twilight" film and then inside a nearby Walmart in Bolivar, a town about 130 miles southeast of Kansas City.
Investigators determined he legally purchased two assault rifles, and also had 400 rounds of ammunition. He is charged with first-degree assault, making a terroristic threat and armed criminal action, and remained jailed Wednesday on $500,000 bond.
The case has gun control advocates concerned.
Daniel Vice, a senior attorney for the Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence, said Lammers' case reminds him of what happened before the Virginia Tech shooting in 2007. Student gunman Seung-Hui Cho, who fatally shot 32 people before killing himself, was able to buy two guns even though he had been ruled a danger to himself during a court hearing in 2005.
"We've seen it before," Vice said. "We've been trying to fix this."
The National Rifle Association didn't respond to a phone message seeking comment. Lammers' attorney, DeWayne Franklin Perry, declined to comment about the case.
Lammers' mother said her son had undergone inpatient treatment and has shown signs associated with Asperger's syndrome, borderline personality disorder and other conditions.
"He didn't ask to be born different," Tricia Lammers said at a news conference this week at the National Alliance for Mental Illness in Springfield. "He wanted to be successful and be somebody. Just two weeks ago he asked me — both my kids still call me mommy — he said, 'Mommy, do you think I'm a failure?' I said, 'No, Blaec, I don't.'"
Federal law has banned certain types of mentally ill people from buying guns since 1968, including those who have been deemed a danger to themselves or others, involuntarily committed, or judged not guilty by reason of insanity or incompetent to stand trial.
Lammers was involuntarily committed in 2009, after he brought a knife and rubber mask to a Walmart store and followed around a clerk, according to an arrest report. Lammers, who was 17 at the time, told investigators he was planning to kill the clerk when he heard his name over the public address system and his father hollering at him.
He wasn't charged, but he was involuntarily committed for 96 hours for a mental health examination. In Missouri, hospitals, law enforcement officials and private citizens can request a person be held against his or her will for up to 96 hours if the person appears to be a threat to themselves or others.
But such an involuntary hold doesn't necessarily bar someone from purchasing a firearm, because the federal law requires that a person be "adjudicated as a mental defective," said Trista K. Frederick, a special agent and spokeswoman for the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms office in Kansas City.

A note on silver nitrate drops. They were invented by Albert Barnes and Herman Hille. They started a company and Barnes bought out Hille.
Why mention this? The product, Argyrol, established one of the great art collections in the world, The Barnes Foundation. It existed for decades in a home in Merion, PA specially built for it - and to serve as a school for artists (of working class origin only). It recently relocated and reopened in the arts district of Philadelphia.

Here's how to reproduce the problem
Setup a recurring meeting (e.g. daily for 5 days), and check the box to create a meeting workspace
Edit one of the instances of the meeting and reschedule it to a different day.
Click on the rescheduled instance in the default Calendar view, and you will see the meeting workspace link.
Switch to the All Events view.
Click on the recheduled instance. The meeting workspace link will be missing. Click "Edit Item." The meeting workspace link will appear.
For more fun, edit the Calendar view and change anything. Now, clicking on rescheduled items will be missing, except in edit view.
I tested and it appears that the default Calendar view creates hyperlinks to meeting instances like this (see the ID): http://mysite.com/personal/na_bob/Lists/Calendar/DispForm.aspx?ID=6.1.5
But the All Events view, or a modified Calendar view create links like this: http://mysite.com/personal/na_bob/Lists/Calendar/DispForm.aspx?ID=6
For some reason, only the uncustomized Calendar view is creating hyperlinks that show the full detail of the rescheduled instance of a recurring meeting. Has anybody seen this before? Is there a way to fix this?
We are using MOSS 2007 with SP2. I have reproduced this problem using the My Site site definition and the Team Site site definition.

It's like a scene out of a movie – A handsome, young man takes his girlfriend for a walk in the pouring rain and stops under a huge redwood tree to get on one knee and ask for her hand in marriage.
Well, what would you say if the ring he used to propose was one he spent weeks making himself?
Yeah, that's what Rider Strong, 33, did this past Christmas when he became engaged to Alexandra Barreto in Northern California, People magazine reports.
Read: 'Boy Meets World' Cast Reunites
"I spent weeks making the ring in secret," Strong told People. "I carved the ring out of wax, cast it in white gold and had my dad make a wooden ring box for me. My dad made my mom's ring, so I was following in his footsteps."
Now, the duo is ready to tie the knot this Sunday, his rep confirms to ABC News.
"I'm incredibly lucky to be getting married to my best friend and partner-in-crime, Alexandra Barreto," Strong told ABC in a statement. "We're tying the knot at a summer camp in Oregon."
Strong added that it's going to be a fun-filled throwback weekend with "everyone sleeping in bunks, a ropes course, games, a talent show…let's hope it doesn't rain too much."
'Boy Meets World' – Where Are They Now?
Strong was a breakout star from 1993 to 2000 on "Boy Meets World," and has since had stints on "Kim Possible" and "Pepper Dennis," the show where the couple met in 2006.
Here's an early toast to the lucky couple!

This is the Discussion thread for the season. Post any draft recaps, trade proposals, trash talk, banter, boasting, crying and complaining here. Firstly, thanks to those who turned up to the draft. I must say it was disappointing that we began the draft with only 5 of the 10 owners present. We had a couple more turn up later, but the auto-draft is not good for all parties involved. It was impossible to obtain one of the stars without overpaying due to the auto-drafters bidding until the ESPN ranking value was reached. Some auto-drafters were allocated 2 or 3 of the first 10-15 players which left them with little money for other players. Still, those who were present managed to make do as best as possible by snaring some great middle round value picks. I dare say there will be quite a few trade proposals flying around in the next week or so. The teams have now been set up in Yahoo so you may begin setting your lineups. There will be the standard 2 day waiting period before you can start claiming players from the waiver wire. Make use of the Trading Block page if you have anyone you'd like to trade. This makes trade proposals easier because others know which players they can target. Click on 'League', then 'Trading Block' --> 'Edit'. eg. Smoooth - you might want to put Addai in there.
I was planning to make the draft, but my youngest son and wife wanted to go to the fair. Family takes precedent over fantasy sports. I did spend some time last night setting my player rankings to ensure I would get a couple of the players that I really wanted. Unfortunately, I got 3 solid running backs and I only need 2. If someone needs a RB, make me an offer (with stud QB and/or WR's). Sorry I missed the draft. Hope those that attended still had fun.
No problem Bill. Hope you had a good time at the fair. I'm sure there will be plenty of people willing to deal.
The draft was a lot of fun, and I am looking forward to a fun season. Thanks to Webz for doing all the heavy lifting.

PS - The initial Waiver order has been randomly determined by Yahoo. This is because we used an Auction draft. Normally in a Snake draft the waiver order is determined as the reverse of the draft order.
Dynamo and Oranized Chaos still had not set a lineup since the draft so I have entered a default team for them for Week 1 according to the highest draft values. Of course, both teams can still adjust their lineups prior to Week 1, but I set a default lineup just in case they are asleep at the wheel. We don't want teams getting a bunch of zero's.
Thanks Scoe. It's ok, they still have plenty of time, I just wanted to make sure they at least had their positions filled out.
Difficult Schedules 2009 Double Whammy Teams - 3 Categories: 1) Have a Defense That's Expected to Be Poor Stopping the Run And Face a Tough Defensive Schedule in 2009: The following is a list of fantasy football double whammy teams that face defensively tough schedules in 2009 and don't appear to have defenses strong enough to keep opposing offenses from chewing up the game clock on them, thus limiting the attempts of their own offensive players including during prevent defense time when trailing and looking for garbage fantasy football points. Beware of drafting offensive players from double whammy teams near the average draft position seen in fantasy football mock draft and live draft results, as you might be over paying. The following teams qualify as double whammy teams in this category in 2009. Detroit Lions St. Louis Rams Kansas City Chiefs
Good post Nemo. You're really only looking at a handful of players from those teams that are draftable anyway. Calvin Johnson Kevin Smith Dwayne Bowe Matt Cassell Larry Johnson Steven Jackson Donnie Avery Smith and Jackson are good pass-catchers out of the backfield, so they should be fine. I'd worry about Larry Johnson though. If Bowe and Cassell can establish a rapport they can have solid years. Bowe may see a lot of double teams though. Donnie Avery is borderline rosterable after breaking his foot but has plenty of upside. QB is a concern though. Calvin Johnson proved last year he can put up numbers with any quarterback on the worst team in history. It stands to reason he will have an even better year this year.
I'm not sure I agree with that double whammy theory. Often times, poor defensive teams are losing early so the QB and WRs get big points trying to play catch-up. It's often the RBs that suffer.
Strength of Schedule / Weakness of schedule: Whatever you want to name it, if there's one free fantasy football draft tip you should take away, it's to use those strength of schedule charts that are popping up all over the internet. Just remember to make adjustments for injury situations and off-season roster moves because those charts don't always reflect reality! For example, the Minnesota Vikings picked up pass rushing dynamo Jared Allen from the Chiefs in 2008. Strength of schedule charts didn't reflect this added power to the Vikings' defensive line. But it negatively impacted offensive players who faced the Vikings. Meanwhile, teams playing the Chiefs had it easy. In 2009 look for Albert Haynesworth's move from Tennessee to Washington to cause similar ripples. Use strength of schedule to either increase the value of players on your fantasy football draft board or decrease the value accordingly. Teams Facing Easier Schedules in 2009: See the following list of teams with light schedules in 2009. Try to draft players on these teams when faced with a choice of comparable players on other teams. Teams Facing Easy Defensive Schedules That Are Also Expected to Have Top Offenses of Their Own to Take Full Advantage of the Weak Schedule: Green Bay Packers Arizona Cardinals Indianapolis Colts Minnesota Vikings Houston Texans
Interesting results in Week 1. Bezeach v Jammer Jammer got a hiding from Bezeach who built a massive total on the back of Brees' 6 TD's. He is looking like money well spent at this point but he won't face the Lions every week. Jammer will want better weeks from the disappointing Forte and Andre Johnson. Forte has the Steelers this week, so it doesn't get any easier. Mikhail v Adam (Bill Jr) Bill jnr off to a solid start to his title defense. Romo may have played his best game of the season already, but who knows? Reggie Wayne ate yardage like it was going out of fashion and John Carlson racked up a double dose of end-zone goodness. Green Bay looking like a sleeper D. Mikhail didn't have a lot to write home about. Philly Defense accounting for nearly half his total points! I doubt he starts LenDale White over Steven Jackson again any time soon... Locstah v TheeTFD Thee has been very active on the wire to help make up for his draft and almost pulled off the win. Galloway put up a goose egg and Fasano negative numbers. He will be well pleased with AP's monster game though. MJD will probably start over Turner this week. WR depth is still an issue. Locstah had solid if unspectacular perfomances all-round. Chris Johnson will have an easier time of it this week. Laimbeer v House Dressing Disappointing week from HD's squad. Olsen and Royal were week 1 flop's but should see better days. MBIII's perfomance was encouraging. Roddy White now has Gonzalez stealing TD's and yardage. Uh oh. Bench is deep though. He may be tempted to start Holmes this week. Hasselbeck shined for Bill. A nice value pick from Mr.Autodraft. Did not read the injury report regarding Steve Breaston but was lacking options at WR. A couple of waiver pickups will help here such as home-run hitter Devery Henderson and Patrick Crayton. webz v Smoooth Jake Delhomme's poor performance helped put a major dent in Steve Smith's production. Anthony Gonzalez forgot how to run and did himself a mischief - zero points. Encouraging signs from Keller and Moss will ease the pain. Smoooth also had solid performances all-round. Chad 85 could be looking at a bounce-back campaign. Very nice as a WR3. Addai is holding his own for now even if Smoooth thinks he overpaid. Saboteur Delhomme was nicely tucked away on Smoooth's bench earning negative 6 points. Was this a ploy? Smoooth walks away with the win. Week 2 Game of the week: Bill v Bill jnr It's on!
Good work, webz. The top 5 scores all won and the worst 5 scores all lost. That never happens. Usually, someone gets unlucky with a 130-125 loss or someone gets lucky with a 55-53 win.
- Webz with the blow by blow. But he still didn't answer my email about when can you grab free agents after the games. F'ing Laimbs sleazing DHenderson...probably at 0300 like a theaf in the night. - I'm still accepting packages for Turner or Jones-Drew.
If the player has been a free agent for 3 days or longer, than you can pick them up at any time. That's how I got DHenderson. I'll probably drop him after he puts up 15 yards this weekend.
Sorry, missed your email. You can't drop a player who has played in your starting lineup that day. I have a feeling that was the problem. You can swap someone from your bench at any time though. Devery Henderson was a FA so there was no waiting period.

Ok. Your looking at this because your hair needs saving.
The good? Its sulfate free. My hair was still dry but not straw after shampooing like it had been with my drugstore shampoo. Any sulfate free shampoo could do this for you I guess.
But a shampoo will not fix your hair, not this not any one. It is only a good shampoo when it just does NOT damage your hair. So ok this did no further damage its a nice gentle shampoo. But doesnt help either.
I spent 100s on the whole phyto shabang. The keratin mask + hydrating mask + split end serum, heat protectant. 7 months no other products whatsoever. And I still couldn't possibly tell you what its done for me.
My hair continued to break. It grew at the roots as usual, but length was the same. Hydration? None. Strength? Nope. Keratin? Save it for someone who'll believe you.
If you really want those locks, sometimes theres nothing for it but a good cut and a good oil - quit while your ahead, trust me I dreaded it, but you'll thank yourself later.
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Pleasant and faint scent, lathered up well with very little product.
The packaging hasn't annoyed me yet, but I expect I'll be niggled when I can't actually see how much product I have left.
I recently dyed my hair back to 'soft black' (was manic panic atomic blue 6months and midnight blue for 9months prior to that...) so required a repairing/strengthening shampoo and not their colour protecting one...
The shampoo cleans quite well, my hair feels very soft (that could be due to the rosehip oil I massage into my scalp and hair) has a nice shine but feels a little heavier, weighed down... and at £14 a bottle, I doubt I'd buy this again considering it has been outperformed by a £4 shampoo...
I was kind of reluctant to try this shampoo, because I've heard that using too many keratin based hair products can actually make your hair more dry, brittle, and prone to breakage, which is ironic because some keratin can strengthen your hair. My hair is halfway down my back, fine, uncolored, slightly wavy and in overall pretty good condition with some split ends caused by heat styling. This made my hair tangled and knotty, even when paired with a moisturizing conditioner (Costco/Kirkland's moisturizing conditioner), which usually leaves my hair soft and manageable. Overall, this made my hair feel drier than usual, although I think it was also a bit straighter. I used up my sample packet over a handful of shampoos, but I would not recommend this shampoo. It smells just like the Phytokeratine treatment which is part of the same line.
As with all phyto products the bottle is not the best, it would be better wiht a pump. The smell is lovely, but it dried my already somedry and damaged hair. It lathers well but for some reason it doesn´t add enough moisture to my hair. My hair tangles more with this shampoo than with others. Kinda expensive for nothing.

Albrighton grateful to MacDonald
Aston Villa winger Marc Albrighton has paid tribute to the work done by caretaker boss Kevin MacDonald in his role as reserve team manager.Albrighton, 20, scored his first goal for England Under-21s in Tuesday's 3-0 victory over Lithuania. And the emerging talent feels the transition he has made to Villa's first team has been smoothed by MacDonald.

In an effort to densify single-family neighborhoods and increase the affordable housing stock in the city, Seattle has begun a new rezoning project to allow homeowners to build stand-alone cottages in the yards behind their residences. These cottages, or "detached accessory dwelling units (DADU)," present an attractive alternative for housing Seattle's growing population without expanding further into the forests of the Pacific Northwest, or redesigning many of the city's signature neighborhoods. Since the expansion of Seattle's DADU pilot program in 2009, more than 57 backyard cottages have been permitted and built throughout the city.

Any ideas or thoughts on why or how to remedy it?
Ok to add to this, I dropped my first HTC a week ago and the screen shattered. I had a Mophie case on it and it landed perfectly flat and shattered.
Got my second phone on Monday and by Tuesday the screen shorted out and touch wouldn't work along with it going white.
Got my THIRD one yesterday, installed this ROM and this morning the microphone is shorted out. Sounds like the phone is being held outside with the window open at 90 mph. I know it is the mic because voice-top-text is completely non functional. This is the one dropping calls as well.
Either I have the WORST luck ever with the HTC One or the ROM has some internal issues. My first phone I had for 14 months with the original Viper ROM with 0 issues. I seriously think I just have sh*tty luck.

Participation-based figures released to schools showed the South Dunedin decile 6 secondary school achieved a 93.2% pass rate in NCEA level 1, the highest in the country.
It achieved 90.8% in NCEA level 2, the second highest in the country, and 82.4% in NCEA level 3, the third highest in the country.
Overall, the school was the highest-ranked boys' state school in New Zealand.
Wellington College was ranked second, and Shirley Boys' High School third.
Otago Boys' High School was ranked ninth, Waitaki Boys' High School was ranked 15th and Southland Boys' High School was ranked 18th of the 23 state boys' schools nationwide.
King's High School principal Dan Reddiex said the results reflected a significant transformation in the school's culture.
"The high expectations of staff, a strong values programme, excellent tracking systems and accountability for student performance are all key drivers behind the outstanding student outcomes."
While Waitaki Boys' High School rector Paul Jackson was pleased with his school's results, he was quick to point out the statistics did not reflect the large number of year 11 pupils who achieved NCEA level 2, when they were only expected to achieve level 1.
"We had 30 year 11 boys sit level 2 and achieved it last year."
He believed some schools in New Zealand doctored their results to make them look more favourable, by not allowing pupils to enrol in NCEA if they were unlikely to pass.
Mr Reddiex said it was not a practice carried out by King's High School.
Otago Boys' High School rector Clive Rennie said statistics should not be taken at face value, with variables behind the figures.
"Our three levels of qualification can be earned through a combination of assessment methods," he said.
"Unit standards and achievement standards can be combined in a variety of ways. Achievement standards culminate in a higher education pathway."
While the participation-based statistics showed a higher percentage of King's High School pupils had achieved NCEA qualifications than Otago Boys' High School, 65.5% of his pupils had gained university entrance, as opposed to King's High School's rate of 54.1%, Mr Rennie said.
"A true measure of student qualification is the pathways they are able to pursue upon leaving school," he said.

IntercontinentalExchange And NYSE Euronext Announce Preliminary Shareholder Merger Consideration Election Results
ATLANTA and
Nov. 1, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- IntercontinentalExchange (NYSE: ICE), a leading operator of global markets and clearing houses, and NYSE Euronext (NYSE: NYX), today announced the preliminary results of the elections made by shareholders of NYX regarding their preference as to the form of merger consideration they will receive in connection with ICE's pending acquisition of NYX, which is currently expected to be effective within two business days after receipt of the final regulatory approvals, which ICE and NYX expect to receive in the coming days.
As previously announced, under the terms of the Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of March 19, 2013 (the "Merger Agreement"), by and among NYX, ICE, IntercontinentalExchange Group, Inc. ("ICE Group"), Braves Merger Sub, Inc., and NYSE Euronext Holdings LLC (f/k/a Baseball Merger Sub, LLC), subject to proration, allocation and certain limitations set forth in the Merger Agreement, shareholders of NYX had the option to elect to receive for each share of NYX common stock (except for excluded shares and dissenting shares as more particularly set forth in the Merger Agreement):
- a number of validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock of ICE Group, par value $0.01 per share (each, an "ICE Group Share") equal to 0.1703 and an amount of cash equal to $11.27, without interest (together, the "Standard Consideration");
- an amount in cash equal to $33.12, without interest (the "Cash Consideration"); or
- a number of ICE Group Shares equal to 0.2581 (the "Stock Consideration").
Based on available information as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on October 31, 2013 (the "Election Deadline"), the preliminary merger consideration election results were as follows:
- Holders of approximately 2.78% of the outstanding shares of NYX common stock, or 6,763,293 shares of common stock, elected the Standard Consideration.
- Holders of approximately 0.43% of the outstanding shares of NYX common stock, or 1,051,893 shares of common stock, elected the Cash Consideration.
- Holders of approximately 81.74% of the outstanding shares of NYX common stock, or 198,874,449 shares of common stock, elected the Stock Consideration.

Always liked Izzy, would like to see if he still has any gas left in the tank. Could be a good one year deal while we groom a DT in the draft.
If they sign him back it will be for A LOT less money then what the Lions gave him last year, and it will be the 3rd or 4th guy on the field; this screams more about how bad they think CornWash is then anything. I honestly hope it's a 1 day contract so he can say he retired a Bear in hopes people forget about his embarrassingly bad year in Det.

The Everglades is many things to many people, but above all else, it is a wilderness1.5 million acres of the most extraordinary and unique habitat. 1,100 species of plants and 350 species of birds live here for at least part of the year, and some of those species live nowhere else on earth. We'll journey into the Everglades on foot, by airboat, on a helicopter and by kayak to see what secrets this wild space is hiding. |

Activities and Events - Fall 2014
The calendar is updated at the beginning of each month. We hope that you will use it to find interesting ways to learn more about Japanese language and culture.
During each semester, we provide students of Japanese with a variety of cultural events and activities. For the most part, participation in them is voluntary; however, our experience is that students who push themselves to learn new things - and practice - outside the classroom, reap great benefits.
October 28

5:30-8:30 p.m.
Like Father, Like Son (そして父になる, Soshite Chichi ni Naru) is a Japanese drama directed by Hirokazu Koreeda. In 2013, it was nominated for the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival, where it won the Jury Prize and a commendation from the Ecumenical Jury; shown at the Toronto International Film Festival, and won the Rogers People's Choice Award at the Vancouver International Film Festival and the Wuaki.TV Audience Award at the San Sebastián International Film Festival.
Andrew Chan of the Film Critics Circle of Australia writes, "Essentially, Like Father, Like Son is one of those rare films that keep the audience totally engaged, thoroughly profound, fully emoted and ultimately refreshing. In the scale of perfect cinema, this stands quite close." On the website of The American Spectator, Eve Tushnet wrote that the film "has some of the striking Koreeda trademarks: the extraordinary acting from the children; the symmetrical framing and musical pacing; and the shifts between long shots in which all the people look tiny and child's-eye shots where all the people look huge."

The Boston Bruins and Washington Capitals went into overtime in game seven last night, and the Capitals came out on top.
Joel Ward scored the winning goal for the Capitals beating the defending Stanley Cup Champions, and the Twitter world went nuts with racism.
It's pretty sad that instead of congratulating a team who knocked out the defending champs in round one, all people could focus on was the race of the guy who sealed the deal.

NEW YORK -- Valerie Harper, who played Rhoda Morgenstern on television's "The Mary Tyler Moore Show" and its spinoff, "Rhoda," has been diagnosed with terminal brain cancer.
People magazine reports on its website Wednesday that the 73-year-old actress received the news on Jan. 15. The report says she has as little as three months to live.
Harper tells the magazine in a cover interview: "I don't think of dying. I think of being here now."
Harper's character, Rhoda, was one of television's most beloved sidekicks during the 1970s.
The Associated Press was trying to reach a representative for Harper.

Reid - Black Cats grounded
// A bit of a hack but it works// The article snippet is wrapped onto a second line, even when #article-sub is emptyif( $("div#article-sub").children().length == 0 ) {$("div#article-sub").remove();} Andy Reid insists Sunderland are not getting carried away with their impressive start to the new Premier League season. Steve Bruce's dark horses find themselves sixth in the Premier League ladder following Saturday's 4-1 drubbing of Hull City. Sunderland remain outsiders for a European place next season, although Reid is refusing to guess where they might finish the campaign. The former Spurs and Charlton midfielder believes Bruce's side would only be setting themselves up for disappointment by setting a target. Shot at"There is no point saying we are going to finish here, we are going to finish there because you just put yourself there to be shot at," explained Reid. "We will go about it as best we can, we will give everything we can in every game. "One thing the fans did see out there aside from quality, they saw loads of tackles and commitment. "That's what they demand and that's what we will give them." ConfidenceReid only started against The Tigers as Kieron Richardson had to fill in at left-back and the 27-year-old insists regular football instils more confidence. "I just want to play football and when I perform as well as I did on Saturday, without blowing my own trumpet or anything like that, I just want to play more and it breeds confidence," he continued. "It's just about me going out and performing on the pitch. I know myself when I perform well, and I know myself when I don't perform well. "I put pressure on myself to go out and do the job I need to do."

No More Money For Maurice Jones Drew
Published June 11th, 2012

Jacksonville Jaguars general manager Gene Smith says he refuses to reconstruct star running back Maurice Jones-Drew's contract. The Jaguars veteran, who made the Pro Bowl the last three years and was the leading rusher in the league last year, is scheduled to make nine million dollars over the next two years, far less than the 13.5 million next year alone by Tennessee's Chris Johnson.

I called several times for a reservation for a 45 foot motor coach and tow and was not intending to unhook the tow. We were booked for a pull-thru premium site. We had to unhook the tow as the dirt roads were to narrow and bumpy. There were no signs for this RV resort and the trees have grown over the street sign. There were tents packed in all the river front sites, boats and trailers, fifth wheels, and trucks everywhere else. Our premium site was all the way in the back of the park in an open field looking at a scrap pile. It is not big rig friendly nor are the pull-thrus made for big rigs. We could not open any slides due to a tree and a truck parked where it should not be - in our site. When the boaters arrived back to their sites, the loud party continued till after one in the morning. A word to the wise....Pass this one by. - Touring USA
This is a very quiet park in January. With all the permanent recreational residents with boats and jet skies, it's probably a totally different story in July. We camped in one of the pull through sites in the back. We really enjoyed our stay. Had some great walks along the Colorado River. The facilities were nice, everything worked great. - Nordic Sun
Nothing special but certainly OK for a stopover. 6 miles off the interstate. If you have a boat or watercraft they have a launch ramp right into their private lagoon and then on to the Colorado river. - User1132

No cable, weak WiFi except near office. No sewer in pull thru sites but a truck comes 2x a week to empty tanks. Pull thru and riverfront sites fairly spacious. Pretty setting on the Colorado River. Riverfront sites have a lovely terrace w/ picnic table. Add'l picnic tables along riverfront. A lot of full time residents. - lovinretirement
NOT BIG RIG FRIENDLY. Definitely have to unhook and can't make all the turns easily within the park. Most are impossible with a 40'. I think we are on the riverfront but a fence blocks the view. Really out of the way, not sure I'd stay here again. Lot of permanent "structures" of one sort or another. I wouldn't stay here again. - Dutch Star 40
Rate reflects a Passport America discount. The sites along the river do not have sewer hookups, but the others do. Most sites have at least some shade which can be important in Blythe, and there are supplies available in the small store in the office. The dog enjoyed having grass under her feet again after weeks in the desert. And I appreciated the shade and quiet. It's not fancy, but will probably stay here again when in the area. - frmOregon

Rate reflects Passport America Discount. We stayed when the park was not very full. If you came here during their peak season sites would be very close together. Campground is on a grassy field and fairly easy to level. Site were not long enough to leave the truck / trailer attached. This was okay for a one night stopover, but would not be my first choice for a longer stay. Verizon, AT&Tm and Sprint all had very weak coverage for data and phone at this park. - DRFink
The rate is for a primitive site. We love to find places like this a few miles off the interstate. Very quiet at night. No generators allowed, we love that concept. Airplane noise as of 6:30 in the morning. Most dry camping sites are for smaller RVs except for #1 and #10, which are easy to back in to. However, watch out for some bent trees when making your turns inside the park. There was a picnic table, but no fire pit. Site was about level. Our Verizon worked well. Wi-Fi is offered, but we didn't try. We'll bookmark this park for an overnight stay when traveling again in this area. - TheSchweitzers
End site with great views. All grass camp area. Weekly and monthly rates excellent. Bumpy interior roads. Passably clean restrooms. Odd dump station, honey wagon weekly. Next year we'll stay for a month. - diceshooter60

Great place to stay for long term. The people are friendly. The golf course is the main activity, but lots of other things to do. I played bridge 3 times a week. There was bingo, 4 wheeling, biking, other card games, various exercise classes. We will be going back next season. The price is based on a monthly rental. We rented from an owner. - User1213
This is a great place to stay if you like to golf. It is situated on the Blythe Municipal Golf Course. However, if you do not like to golf, there isn't much else to do in the area. The resort itself is very nice and well maintained. The lots are individually owned and you rent from the owner. The "nightly rate" indicated is based on a monthly rate. Most of the owners/renters are from Canada and so are we. Everyone is very friendly. If you love to shop, this is not the place for you. Not many shops in Blythe but if you are looking for a quiet, clean RV Resort, this is your place. - surefoot

Speedy check-in and help was offered to back up into the camp site. Paved roads and level, grassy, no shade sites. A few sites available next to the river. Situated 100 yards south of the 10, unfortunately. Highway sound hearable all day and especially at night when the wind dies down. Campground, pool, hot tub and restrooms are clean. Small store on campground with some food items, drinks and RV spare parts. For watching TV, you get a free digital box during your stay. Channels are of perfect quality!
The free WiFi reception is good. Uninterrupted signal and fair speed. - Bluesbirdy
Great overnight spot between Phoenix & LA. Nice long level pull-thru sites with grass. Good turning radius throughout park. Good 50 amps. Personnel was friendly and park is clean. Some freeway noise. - Freedom Bus
Good Sam rate. Nice friendly check-in. Led to site. Grass site not level, but was an easy adjustment with wheel shims. 50 amp didn't work so used the site's pedestal next to me to hook up, as it was over 100*F. Wi-Fi was strong and solid. Exiting was confusing as there was no signage and they have tire spike strips that aren't functional. You actually drive over them to exit! We felt a bit pricey for the age and overall looks of the park. Doubtful we would stay again, but maybe. - Numbnuts


text: Confirmation Class View full-size image < previous next > Is this photo a winner? "The Confirmation Class loves their t-shirts! The entire class is held over two days/ 24 hours, with the Bishop visiting to Confirm on the Sunday following. It takes a lot of energy to get through it and the bright t-shirts helped!" - http://www.stmartininthefields.org - St Martin in the Fields (Apr 25, 2014) Share this photo on: Twitter Facebook Pinterest Similar Photos: confirmation youth | religious | youth ministry | confirmation class Feeling inspired?
