California lawmakers are considering a new proposal, Sens. Holly Mitchell and Mark Leno's SB 1132, to impose a moratorium on fracking, acidizing, and other unconventional oil and gas drilling techniques in California. The reason for the bill is simple: The more we learn, the more risk we find. Since Jan. 21, when the Mercury News editorialized that the state should allow new proposed fracking regulations time to take effect, new information has emerged that supports a "time out" while the state examines fracking's threats to California's water, our air, and the health and safety of our communities.
New studies on health impacts of drilling: This month, a peer-reviewed study by Physicians, Scientists and Engineers for Healthy Energy detailed health risks for people living near unconventional wells. The study identified elevated levels of methane and arsenic in drinking water near fracked wells, carcinogenic and endocrine-disrupting air pollutants, and heavy metals such as lead in oil and gas wastewater that can find its way into drinking or irrigation water. A February study from the Colorado School of Public Health and Brown University found a strong correlation between living near fracked wells and congenital heart disease. A study released in January by researchers from Princeton, Columbia, and MIT found a link between fracking and low birth weights.
Earthquakes linked to fracking: Injection of wastewater from oil and gas operations has long been known to cause earthquakes. This month, Ohio geologists established the link between fracking and induced seismicity. California, already the most seismically active state in the country, has no monitoring requirements or regulations that address seismic risk from oil and gas activities. In a March report co-authored by Clean Water Action, we highlighted the lack of protections, as well as the hundreds of injection wells sited dangerously close to active faults (study available at www.shakyground.org).
Extreme drought: Gov. Jerry Brown declared a drought emergency in January and our state's farmers, communities, and wildlife are suffering from lack of water. Early reporting under the new fracking disclosure law, Sen. Fran Pavley's SB 4), confirms that oil companies inject hundreds of thousands of gallons of drinkable freshwater, laced with toxic chemicals into every fracked well. These activities threaten our scarce water resources, especially when they occur, as is typical, in the driest parts of the state, adjacent to sensitive waterways, and penetrating aquifers in prime Central Valley farmland. Fracking is both an environmental and an economic threat as Central Valley farms provide $17 billion to the state's economy and is home to one sixth of the nation's farmland. Contamination of Central Valley water would jeopardize our food security, kill jobs, and further deplete the statewide water supply.
With the evidence of fracking's risks to the environment and public health continuing to grow, the only reasonable next step is to press pause. A moratorium on fracking would give the state the opportunity to assess potential risks, while ensuring that we don't poison our air and water in the interim. Polls show that the majority of Californians agree with this common sense approach. When the Senate Committee on Environmental Quality, chaired by Sen. Jerry Hill, votes on SB 1132 on Wednesday, we expect our representatives to stand up for our health, clean water, and a sustainable future, and not Big Oil's bottom line. We expect them to vote "Yes."

"Dear Sirs,
My experience working with AVA Direct was truly excellent and memorable. I was assisted by Mr. Joseph Mundy who was very courteous and helpful. He patiently answered all my questions and even gave me some excellent recommendations.
He expertly assembled and prepared a computer suited to my specific needs. Mr. Joseph Mundy went out of his way to ensure that my requests were fully satisfied. I can say without a doubt it was truly a pleasure doing business with AVA Direct and I highly recommend them. I will not hesitate to contact them again in the future for my computer needs.
Alex Phillips
TADI Investments, Inc.
"I have ordered custom laptops from a couple of different companies. I've tried both CyberPower PC and XoticPC and man does AVADirect put them to shame. The experience I've had from the moment I landed on their website to me sitting at home typing this review on my new PC has been fantastic. I was looking to upgrade my 3 year old PC with something better and I had a rather large budget. I'm pretty good with computers, but not nearly good to trust myself with building a computer. After reading the reviews here on Reseller Ratings for AVADirect, I decided to give them my business. What caught my eye first? Their website! It's awesome and I'm a web developer (it's actually responsive, go figure). If you do not have a nice website, I will not do business with you. Their configurator was easy to work with and I was able to price out and email myself what I thought was a good PC.
I decided to see if a sales rep could help me bring the price down (who wouldn't) and ensure everything looked good on the PC (compatibility wise). This is when ran into Eric Malcom. Let me tell you guys, this man is awesome! He helped me with getting my PC cost closer to my budget and gave me great recommendations on parts based off the motherboard I went with. He kept me in the loop every step of the way!
Keep in mind that after you order your PC, it will take quite a bit of time to get setup. Keep patient, it's worth it! The shipping and packaging was awesome. This thing was secured very tight and had no issues getting it plugged in and running. So far, my new PC is running great! I decided to wait a few weeks before posting my review to ensure everything was still good and it is.
The only issue I had was with the sound card (ASUS Xonar DSX). No fault of AVADirect, just probably should have picked a better one. The drivers stink for this one and I had to use some modded version to get it to work right. I contacted their support about when I couldn't figure out what was wrong and the support guy was kind of helpful, but pretty standoffish (almost as if he couldn't be bothered). His name was Mike Blystone. No offense to Mike, but he should work on his customer support skills.
Other than that, 5 stars for AVADirect. Thanks for the new PC guys! If you're on the fence, go with these guys. They're good and build good stuff!"
"Ordered a very expensive piece of equipment but very well worth it their customer support is what sets them apart from everyone else, I would go with them every time."
"Just recently I found myself acting as the middleman, a friend of mine needed a trading computer, and I came across the Internet with AVADirect C.C. Which happens to be one of the BEST company that I have been able to make business with, the first call that I made was answer by Eric Malcom, and from that moment on it fell that I was in the right hands all along, now once the computer is been build, some of the parts that I have order in the first place were no longer available, the company made the upgrade without charging us anything extra. I have only one more thing to say, it feels good to know that when you have questions there's someone to help you with all the time, we had issues with the delivering address at the last minute, and their shipping department was very swift to help us on the spot, and Kasey was the personhow help me with it. Nowadays it's very hard to find that human warn sensation that technology has been wasting it away, now for all of you Gamers if you want to have a real game computer this is the place to be, or for anyone out there that likes to be treated like a human being. This is the right place to be
From: Southern California"
"Awesome service. From selecting my custom built computer to the day it was delivered I had lots of tech/customer support. All of my questions were answered even after the computer arrived and I needed assistance. They helped me create a machine tailored exactly to my needs and business for the exact amount of money I was looking to spend. All my questions and concerns were quickly returned via email or phone call by sales associate Eic Malcom. I love the machine they built for me. It came in the mail ready to boot and go to work. I would suggest this company for anyone looking to build a custom pc. As a mac user who has crossed over to PC for my needs in video post production they have made this a very easy and educational process for me. I will be looking forward to getting another machine from them soon. "
"I contacted AVA Direct to build a new computer for my photography needs. Not knowing much about the insides of a computer I relied on their expert knowledge and advice. Joe Mundy of the sales dept. understood what I needed and answered all my questions and recommended a system that fit my budget. The computer was delivered on time and works great! "
"Top notch company!!! It had been almost 9 years since I searched for a new computer so I was a little nervous about having one custom built. After searching for days for a company to custom build my system, I ran across AVA Direct and I'm so glad I chose to go with this company. First off, their customer service is OUTSTANDING!!! I worked with Eric Malcolm during the entire order process and he immediately made me feel like a valued customer! Having never custom built a computer before, I sent numerous emails to Eric and made multiple phone calls and he always immediately answered any questions I had without an issue. He never once made me feel as if I was a "bother" or "annoying". Top notch service!! It took a few weeks for the rig to be built which Eric definitely explained up front; however, once it was built and ready for shipment, I received my new rig in 2 days. It was packed perfectly in an extremely large box with no damage at all. All extra software, manuals, cables, screws, etc that came with the internal components were included in the MOBO box. After receiving my rig, I've even called Tech Support with questions and they've always been more than happy to assist me. This company is amazing and I would definitely recommend them for anyone wishing to custom build a PC. I built an very high end system, and I'm really glad to know I have a company that will be there for me with any assistance I might need."
"Our company has ordered from AVADirect multiple times, and it's always been a positive experience. Their customer service is always quick, friendly, and helpful. They definitely go above and beyond when it comes to helping out their customers. Highly recommended. "
"Great service and I love the new computer! Coming from Canada I had to arrange Fedex delivery which they were very helpful with and worked with Fedex to get it sent here safely. Overall great experience, would recommend them. "
"I ordered a $4500 workstation computer from AVA and my expectations were exceeded. This was one of my best consumer experiences as everything was so well done. The build quality was exceptional and the entire process could be monitored on their website from order placement through shipping. They immediately provided a tracking number and the computer was shipped with fantastic protection/packing. I have previously built my last 2 PCs but after experiencing AVA's options, price and quality, I will never build another!! This is a top notch outfit."
"I ordered a very high end gaming rig from Joe Mundy at ava direct. Joe was very professional and helpful just as he was when i ordered my first build from him 5 years ago. The system arrived in perfect condition just as i ordered. There was a problem with the tri sli configuration i had ordered in which i and ava's tech over the phone could not get to see more than 1 video card. As a result the system had to go back. When they got the system back they quickly fixed the issue which seemed to be an issue with the slots the video cards needed to be in for this motherboard. It's still a new platform and so i understand there are hiccups sometimes. All in all they got the system back to me in a few days and it has been awesome.
Through it all the guys at ava were very professional and i would definetly recommend them to anyone. Things happen sometimes but what matters most is how problems are handled. The guys at ava handled it well.
Their systems and configuration choices are second to none and the pricing they offer really can't be beat. I will definetly order another system in a few years from these guys. "
"My experience so far with AVA-Direct has been nothing but positive. First of all, they offer amazing customer support from before you order to after the product is shipped. They are extremely quick to reply back. The tech support on the phone has been great as well which is expected due to the nature of products they sell, but also appreciated given the cost of each call to the company and the size of the company. I had trouble removing the hdmi and display port plugs because they were partially obstructed by a metal bar. I was advised to open the case, loosen the thumb screws and let the video card dip slightly. This worked fine for me. I appreciated the advice. Aside from this very minor problem, the machine is so far (after one week) running flawlessly.
Due to my good experience working with this company so far, I would highly recommend them to anyone and I plan to continue to do business with them in the future. "
"AVADirect is a stand-up company. I had a custom system built for my in-home recording studio and they got back to me very quickly with a few small suggestions to improve my system's reliability. I also asked for a change to the OS and they were able to accommodate me even though it was a last-minute change.
The system was delivered ahead of schedule and packaged securely.
Thanks to the folks at AVADirect!"
"I just got the new PC yesterday and it is EXACTLY what I expected! It runs to perfection, the packaging was very secure, the assembly is incredibly efficient, and I set it up with no problems at all.
Some people may complain about the 10-14 day waiting period until they ship but trust me, it's worth it. Most of that wait is because they may need to order some parts that you want that they don't have in stock. They assemble it to perfection and stress test every component to make sure everything is stable. Couldn't ask for more!
The price? Yeah, sure you can buy the parts and assemble it yourself, making it cheaper. However, paying a little extra (not that much really) for EXCELLENT customer and technical service is worth every penny!
I'm glad my friend recommended AVADirect to me as this was a very pleasant experience and I'm determined to recommend AVADirect to anyone with PC needs with a desire for awesome customer service! "

Benjamin Daniels is angry. He is frustrated, confused, baffled and, quite frequently, very funny. He is also a GP. These are his confessions.
A woman troubled by pornographic dreams about Tom Jones. An 80-year-old man who can't remember why he's come to see the doctor. A woman with a common cold demanding (but not receiving) antibiotics. A man with a sore knee. A young woman who has been trying to conceive for a while but now finds herself pregnant and isn't sure she wants to go through with it. A 7-year-old boy with 'tummy aches' that don't really exist.These are his patients.Confessions of a GP is a witty insight into the life of a family doctor.
Funny and moving in equal measure it will change the way you look at your GP next time you pop in with the sniffles.

"don't waste either your credit or your money"
I thought this might have been a nice anecdotal listen,,, well it gave anecdotes, in the smugest, most depressing way possible. Some of which never had a conclusion satisfactory or otherwise. This doctor is soooo pleased with himself, it made me angry. I have down loaded a number of books, mostly really good, but not this one, it was DREADFUL. If you want to really depress yourself get it, if you want a laugh.. or even a wry smile FORGET IT
"Unedited for smugness"
I listened to this to while away my commuter car journey, expecting the anecdotes to be linked and this to be an autobiography in the James Herriot mould. What it actually seems to be is a badly edited (if it has ever been edited at all) collection of tales from a very smug young doctor who constantly assures us that "while he is not the world's greatest doctor, he is at least, a good doctor." That some of these brief stories are funny is indeed true, but the overbearing theme that pervades them all is his dreadful personality. I tried to persevere...he may have improved by the end - I confess I had to give up after about three hours as the whole soundbite style was becoming very depressing and annoying.
Mr Ben Daniels would do a lot better to stick to writing prescriptions for a few more years so that his overall experience of life can enable him to take a longer view. Perhaps then if he wrote a book which was based upon the experience he clearly lacked when he wrote this very third-rate drivel with greater clarity and using his own life to link the tales in the same way that other biographers do then possibly it might have greater appeal and meaning. At the moment this is a collection of soundbites which are designed in the main to show how clever he is. There are a few which are self-deprecating, but these are in the minority and the smug factor is collossal. This should have been written on "Twitter"...perhaps it was.
A little more humility and life experience would go a long way.
"Interesting read"
I think some of the other reviews have been a bit unfair about this book. It offers an interesting insight into the real life of a GP. Some of the stories require a strong stomach, but most are enlightening and some really moving.
This is an entertaining book with some more serious strands in the anecdoctal stories that are presented. There are some stories that perhaps would be better not told in this way, but all would be recognised by many practicing doctors, and people in allied medical professions. Contrary to some of the other reviews, my feeling is that Dr Daniels is probably an excellent doctor.
"Ain't that the truth!"
I thought this would be an audio stereotype of the films " confessions of a..."
But I was very pleasantly surprised.
There were no 'hidden ' feelings I can just imagine my GP doing some of these very things. In fact he reminded me f a GP I used to have who used to keep a bottle of whiskey in his top drawer and when I went in he used to say
" so...what's wrong with you save me some time"
It was very funny, relaxing and eye opening on a few levels.
Loved it! Well worth a couple of listens .
"detested this book"
if I could have given 0 I would have done, if he was my doctor I would have appled to have him struck off. Don't waste your time on this arrogant, total lacking in compassion man. I only got it because it had a good write up from someone "in the business" god help the NHS and patients if this is their idea of humor.
"A lot of fun"
Great listen. Warts and all account of what its like to be a doctor. Very funny. I would definitely recommend it.
"So So real"
This is so close to the truth it really made me laugh out loud. As a nurse for 30 years this struck a chord. A good read and in nice sizeable chunks, ideal for train journeys with lots of changes and waits at train stations!

"A British astronomer, Thayer, high on Darwin and other progressive scientists of [his] age, has come to believe that beings more highly evolved than us are alive on Mars (he has evidence) and that there will be a perfect moment in which we can signal to them that we are here, too. He gets the support and funding for a massive project to build the Equilateral, a triangle with sides hundreds of miles long, in the desert of Egypt in time for that perfect window. But as work progresses, the Egyptian workers, less evolved than the British, are also less than cooperative, and a bout of malaria that seems to activate at the worst moments makes it all much more confusing and complex than Thayer ever imagined"--Amazon.com.

Title: | WALB newsfilm clip of African Americans arrested for picketing in downtown Albany, Georgia, 1962 July 28 |
Date: | 1962 July 28 |
Description: | In this WALB newsfilm clip from July 28, 1962, several African Americans are arrested for picketing in downtown Albany, Georgia. As the clip begins, at least two men and one woman exit a car which is parked beside the sidewalk; they begin to carry picket signs as they walk in the Albany commercial district. Slogans on the signs include, "Oh, Pritchett, open them cells," "Legal to picket in Albany? Police say no," "Freedom of assembly?" and "Revive first amendment in Albany." Later, Edward C. Dickerson, a white Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) member from Cambridge, Massachusetts, holds a sign with the saying, "No civil liberties, no civil rights." An African American woman holds a sign with the saying, "1100 arrested in peaceful demonstrations;" the number on top of the sign appears to have been changed, possibly to reflect an increase. Next, Albany police chief Laurie Pritchett speaks to the demonstrators as they are surrounded by officers and reporters. Pritchett informs them that he will only allow two picketers along the block in front of city hall and will arrest everyone unless the others leave. A reporter off-screen narrates the events, explaining that demonstrators continue their march without making changes, despite Pritchett's orders. He then reports the protesters' arrest for not leaving as Pritchett ordered. According to the reporter, there are seven picketers; three are young African Americans, three are African American adults and one is a white man. Protesters in the Albany Movement who picketed were often arrested for charges such as, including failure to obey an officer, disorderly conduct, blocking the sidewalk, and obstructing traffic. The Civil Rights Digital Library received support from a National Leadership Grant for Libraries awarded to the University of Georgia by the Institute of Museum and Library Services for digital conversion and description of the WALB News Film collection.

Just to be clear, I for one, was never saying the pitching staff was better with Hanigan...I'm saying he's better defensively by a long margin. And small sample size or not, I've yet to see anything to change my opinion on that one. And like it or not, defense is the biggest part of a catcher job IMO.
And in regards to game calling...the only time that becomes an issue with a Reds catcher is when the pitcher shakes off the initial pitch. Because from what I see, the pitches get called from the bench so the catcher isn't really dictating what gets thrown and when.
Also, just out of curiosity, since you saw him so much in the minors, have you noticed any changes in Mesoraco's mechanics defensively? I thought I'd heard that he'd improved so much over the past 2 years in the minors, but up here I've seen some really sloppy techniques.

Yes I am strictly basing it on other people's opinion on their ability to call a game. Mainly the amount a Manager plays him. Even more so than what they say about them. Actions speak louder than words. We are so far removed from knowing what is happening between pitcher and catcher I don't trust anything else besides Pitcher, Catcher and Manger's feeling on the issue.
I love numbers too and I love the ability to dissect the game that way. In this aspect though I don't feel there will ever be a way to correctly value what is going on fully in this dynamic.
For me, what I look for is a decent result from the pitcher AND very few pitches shaken off. It's very hard to get into a rhythm pitching when you're constantly having to shake off the catchers' signs. I could be wrong here, but I'm under the impression that Dusty calls the pitches from the bench. So once a pitch is shaken off, this is where it's up to the catcher to know the hitters and know what his pitcher is wanting to do AND what pitches are working well for the pitcher on that specific day. Most of those last points are ONLY going to come with reps working with each individual pitcher to learn his patterns.

I think everyone is right here. I don't think it would take months of him catching to prove that he isn't "terrible" at calling a game (so in this I agree with Doug) but I agree that the sample size is a little small since the teams that we have been beating would probably have a tough time scoring runs against the Reds pitching staff from 2003 (with this I agree with the small sample group).
Tim McCarver: Baseball Quotes
I remember one time going out to the mound to talk with Bob Gibson. He told me to get back behind the batter, that the only thing I knew about pitching was that it was hard to hit.
My best case for difference a great catcher can make would be Puerto Rico's run in WBC.
That team had hardly any top level arms yet managed to only allow 27 runs in 9 games. That is with playing all star lineups from USA and DR 5 times. I find it hard to believe Molina didn't impact that somehow. I don't believe Napoli gets even close to the same results. No way to prove that I know, just what I believe.

From my perspective, people give the catcher entirely too much credit for things that the pitcher is responsible for.
Studies have shown that if there is an actual difference made in calling a game, that it is so insignificant that it doesn't show up in the stats (this also assumes that the guys who are actually so poor at it that they don't stick around long enough to amass enough innings behind the dish).
So then we get to controlling the running game. This is two parts (three actually, but I will get to the other one later). First is arm strength. You need a strong arm in order to get the ball to the bag quick enough. Second is arm accuracy. The pitcher has as much to do with the running game as the catcher does. Can they hold runners on? Do they have a good move that keeps them a step closer to the bag? Are they quick enough to the plate? Both sides of the battery are responsible here.
Then there is the athleticism behind the plate. This is about blocking the ball in the dirt or saving the truly wild pitch that is 2-3 feet outside. This kind of gets into the running game as keeping a ball in front of you can keep a runner at their original bag. Both of the problems start with the pitcher, but a catcher can save his pitcher from time to time here.
Then there is the dreaded pitch framing. It works, unfortunately. But, all situations aren't equal. Studies have shown that being quiet behind the plate gets you extra calls (still head, still glove/catching arm). The catcher can control his head movement. Sometimes he can control his glove/arm movement, but that is entirely dependent on the pitcher being able to hit the target. Catching Homer Bailey for example on a day when he has his good fastball command makes framing pitches easy. The mitt doesn't move and the ball is right there. Catching Homer Bailey on a day when his fastball command isn't there isn't going to lead to anyone framing pitches for strikes because you are setting up outside and catching inside. You can't keep your glove/arm still on days like that unless you want 25 passed balls. Now, without question there are catchers who regardless of the situation present are more quiet than others. With that said, studies have shown that the difference between the best and the worst "pitch framers" (and I still have issues with the studies to begin with because they don't account at all for where the original target was set up, thus will benefit catchers who tend to catch command pitchers who can pound the target versus catchers who catch guys who are a little bit more wild in the zone) is still about 1.5 pitch per game (150 pitches). It means something, but just how much?
The last thing that jumps out to me is being a pitching coach in the sense of being able to see that someone is out of whack with their mechanics.

So let me get this straight... you think catchers are given too much credit for their ability to work a game, but you think Mesoraco's ability to work a game can be seen after a week's sample despite suggesting catchers are given too much credit? It seems you're not holding Mesoraco to the same standard as Hanigan.

The biggest thing I hear from my son, who is a high school pitcher, is that he wants to have the confidence to throw all his pitches to someone that he knows will receive the ball well and block any pitches in the dirt. Beyond that, he wants someone with enough arm to be a threat to throw the runners out.
In his last outing, he threw four very good innings to a catcher who is very familiar with him, and that he is very familiar with. This kid does a pretty good job behind the plate, receiving, blocking and throwing. It was a blowout and they switched catchers in the 5th inning. I noticed that his curveball was not nearly as good when a runner got on base I asked him about it and he said he just didn't have the confidence that the kid would block the ball with runners on base. It does have an effect on the pitcher's mind and his ability to do the things he wants to do with the baseball.

I am saying that I think catchers are given too much credit for what the pitcher is responsible for. I am not entirely sure what you mean by "their ability to work the game", so I can't answer that.
What I am also saying is that our pitchers are good and they, not the guys behind the plate, are why the pitchers results are good. I would say the same thing about almost every catcher/pitcher combo in baseball. There are very few catchers that are being allowed to catch in the Major Leagues that are so bad that they are enough of a problem to cause real issues with the pitching staff.
Below the Major League level, I am sure that it absolutely can play with a pitchers head because the guys catching below that level aren't all good enough to actually catch at the Major League level. Guys that can't block the ball (looking at you Miguel Olivo the other day who let one bounce under the knee instead of dropping to the ground and taking it off the protector) certainly can be an issue. Very few of those guys exist in the Major Leagues for any amount of time though while also receiving actual playing time.

With the way pitchers think, one bad experience can be hard to get out of your head. Catchers are way better at the big league level, but, some are better than others, defensively. It isn't unusual for a pitcher to be selfish and want the best one, or the one he has the most confidence in.

HYDROSTATIC BALL HEAD WITH RC4 RAPID CONNECT SYSTEM / Cat. No: 468MGRC4 Designed to give optimum support and surface area to larger-based medium-and large-format cameras, the 468MGRC4 incorporates the same "world first" hydraulic ball-locking system as the 468MG, and uses Manfrotto's heavy-duty RC4 Rapid Connect plate. This plate system is already used on many of Manfrotto's studio photography heads, such as the 405, 410 and 329RC4. Using hydraulics instead of a mechanical system produces a super-tight lock from a minimal turn of the locking knob, without sacrificing the smoothness of the ball's movement when unblocked. The 468MGRC4 meets the demands of professional photographers who require a light weight head but at the same time being able to support heavy camera loads up to 35lbs! The 468MGRC4 borrows the popular features found on Manfrotto's standard range of ball heads - such as independent pan and tilt locks with a 360ø pan movement and +90ø / -90ø tilt movement. To keep weight low, the head is made of magnesium; and to provide smooth movements, the 2" aluminum ball is Teflon coated. The oversized ball locking knob also allows for easy control even when using gloves

A Wonderful Gem!
Kathy & Bill
Awesome Place
I wanted to thank you for allowing my family to stay at your place during our Yellowstone vacation! Your place was beautiful (inside and out) and we enjoyed having our coffee and dinners overlooking the wildlife, river and park.
Being able to walk into downtown Gardiner for activities, shopping and viewing the elk and deer was definitely a perk.
I would recommend your place for anyone looking for a home away from home. The vicinity to beauty, activities and park access are without comparison.
Thanks again!!
Excellent place to stay
We enjoyed our stay very much and the kids too. The front and back yards were big enough for them to get some running around. The only inconveniency was the handling of the trash. It is supposed to be taken to a place for drop off, Unfortunately we were in a hurry the last day when we were leaving, so we had to leave it behind us, Sorry for that Belinda. Otherwise I'd highly recommend this place to stay for everyone.
Great house as base to enjoy visiting Yellowstone
Just as advertised!
As a New Yorker accustomed to top notch pizza and other Italian food, I would not recommend Outlaw pizza. However, we really enjoyed the pulled pork and ribs at Cowboy Grille (they even have some good wines on the menu!), and also highly recommend the Corral Drive Inn just down the street for fabulous beef and buffalo burgers. We also stopped at Chico's Hot Springs for a soak and swim on our way out of town - from a NYC perspective this was a fantastic deal with day pass costing only $7.50 per person (+ $1 towel rental) and an excellent lunch at Percie's poolside grille.
If we come back to Gardiner we would rent this house again in a heartbeat. Thanks for a great stay!
Activity and Interests
Gardiner is small and the house is located on the north edge of town. Numerous Restaurants, galleries, coffee shops and stores are within walking distance. You can be inside Yellowstone's North Entrance in about 5 minutes making this a perfect base for touring Yellowstone's Old Faithful, Grand Canyon, Lamar Valley, even the Beartooth Highway.
Rafting and horseback riding are available in Gardiner.

Global Leaflet presents highlights of policy, research, technical cooperation, development, and conservation activities in which the Forest Service is involved worldwide. Its purpose is to demonstrate the breadth and importance of international collaboration on natural resource management issues and to share information within the Forest Service and with our partners in the United States and around the world.
International Programs (IP) is dedicated to applying the wealth of skills within the Forest Service to foster sustainable forest management globally. We encourage linking the agency's researchers, foresters, wildlife biologists, hydrologists, policymakers, and disaster specialists, with partners overseas to work on assignments in the areas of technical cooperation, policy assistance, and disaster coordination. Our focus is on key natural resource problems and issues in countries with significant forest resources and important forest-related trade with the United States. International cooperation results in improved sustainable natural resource practices in partner countries, develops the skills of Forest Service personnel, and brings back knowledge and innovative technologies to the United States.

Baldwin Marsh is a 22-acre restoration project along the Kaskaskia River immediately adjacent to the town of Baldwin, IL. Completed in 2002, DU worked closely with the Illinois Department of Natural Resources to restore this former oxbow wetland using financial assistance provided by Dynegy Midwest Generation and Martin Marietta Aggregates. A 17-acre companion project, the Wood Duck Management Unit, also was completed immediately upstream with the assistance of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
In addition to providing dependable habitat for waterfowl and other migrating birds, Baldwin Marsh provides spawning, nesting and feeding habitat for resident fish and wildlife. It also is a great example of what can be accomplished through conservation partnerships.
