Staying at Moan Laur was a wonderful experience; Rachel was a fantastic host and made me feel so welcome. She is exceptionally knowledgeable about the local area and advised me what was good to do in the places I wanted to visit. The B&B itself was cosy and set against the picturesque Slieve Mish mountains - what a view to wake up to every morning! I'm really glad I chose to stay here for my first trip to Ireland.
We loved staying with Rachel! Her home was warm, cozy and comfortable! We felt like we were staying at a dear friends house!
Rachel's home is a lovely place and it's in a peaceful and beautiful country side location. The bedroom it's really cozy, taking care of the details. The room is plenty of natural light in the morning .
Rachel and her dogs were very welcoming and she cooked us some great breakfast!
Thank so much for everything Rachel !!
Such a fantastic stay. Rachel and her daughter were so friendly and welcoming. Loved the dogs too! Rachel gave us direction to a great addition to our trip- Inch Beach. She even let us use her HBO to watch Game of Thrones! She cooked us a delicious breakfast and we truly felt at home. Views are spectacular too. Would love to stay there again.
Rachel and her daughter were so hospitable and nice to get to know. When we arrived, Rachel made us tea. We had gotten lost and so we were so sleepy and the tea and warm fire were nice. It was in a pretty rural location so if some wanted to be close to the city, it will be a little drive to Dingle or elsewhere.
The food was delicious in the morning- she even made us bacon and pancakes although I'm not sure that is typical. It was a pleasant surprise!
Was a little chilly so bring warm clothing when you sleep.
I'm sorry you were a bit chilly guys. I did notice in your room that the radiator had been turned off (i'm guessing you had turned the dial the wrong way and turned it off) as the heating for the house was on. I hope too that you used the blankets provided.
My site does say I'm 25 minutes from Dingle so usually guests book with me who want to rest up in the peace and quiet of the country side. The village of Camp is a short 5 minute drive where you can find 4 pubs.
I do often offer pancakes to other guests and am pleased that you enjoyed them.
Hope to see you again. Happy adventuring!
C'était parfait
Rachel est très conviviale, très disponible et très à l'aise dans son rôle d'hôtesse airbnb
Petits déjeuners complets et terriblement savoureux, cuisinés et servis avec grâce par Rachel
La chambre superbe, très confortable et avec vue sur les montagnes
La région juste sublime, j'ai parcouru la péninsule de Kerry en long en large et en travers, que de belles images, même pour une fin novembre parfois pluvieuse et nuageuse dans cette région

About the Host, Rachel
Hi I've been living on the Dingle Peninsula, County Kerry, Ireland for the last 11 years.
I'm originally from the UK , but gave up the corporate lifeIn Brighton to run a Bed and Breakfast. I have one daughter who is 9 years old born in 2005.
The Bed and Breakfast is in the country side with mountain views. Its 25 minutes drive to Dingle town, and 40 minutes to Killarney and 40 minutes drive from Kerry Airport.
There is a regular bus service which will operate from outside of the Bed and Breakfast, you just have to hold out your hand and the bus will stop.
There is a petrol station in my closest village (3 miles/5 Kilometres) which houses a mini super market, cafe, ATM and launderette.
Ashes bar in the village serves great food as does the Junction pub. On a Sunday night at 7pm the Junction provides traditional Irish music - which is always good fun.
I'm a sociable, chatty and warm person who loves getting to know people from all over the world. The house is my own home so I like my guests to also feel at home. I'm a relaxed person but like fun times too.
My daughter has been raised in the Bed and Breakfast and as she is on her own, loves it when other kids come to stay.
I enjoy reading, socializing with friends, skiing, horse riding, movies and running the B&B.
You only live once so do it with no regrets and to the full.
Look forward to meeting you.

Article By Mike Chambers - September 1, 2007
PERFORMANCE AT 1920x1200
At a resolution of 1920x1200 with no AA, an average of 60 fps or greater in both walkthroughs provided an excellent gaming experience. With AA enabled, the average frame rate drops to the mid-40s. Note the similarity of the 2x and 4x AA results.
While BioShock lacks an internal benchmark, we have demonstrated that using Fraps, in conjunction with a carefully executed walkthrough, can be used to evaluate and graphics card performance. BioShock has rejuvenated the gaming community and we are eagerly awaiting its use in future product reviews.

You have got to be shitting me: Ben-Gal/ex-teacher accused of having sex with student…
A Cincinnati Ben-Gals cheerleader was indicted Thursday for allegedly having a sexual relationship with a student when she was a teacher at Dixie Heights High School.
A Kenton County grand jury indicted Sarah Jones on first-degree sexual abuse. She was also indicted on a charge unlawful use of electronic means to induce a minor to engage in sexual or other prohibited acts. The charges are felonies that are each punishable by up to five years in prison.
Can we stop pretending that a hot chick banging a male teenager is the same thing as a creepy, old man manipulating a female teenager into sex?
One can lead to serious mental and emotional health problems. The other is a dream come true and has virtually no negative effects whatsoever.

The PIXMA MG5320 All-In-One Color Inkjet Photo Printer from Canon prints in black and white at 12.5 IPM and in color at 9.3 IPM. Additionally, it takes the printer just 20 seconds to output a 4 x 6" borderless photo. With the printer's photo-lab quality output, you'll be able to print right at home. Its HD Movie Print even allows you to take a frame from an HD movie and print it as a photo so you won't have to worry about missing a photo op while shooting video. In addition to photos and documents, the printer has a CD tray which allows you to print directly onto an inkjet-printable CD, DVD, or Blu-Ray disc. Create your own custom CD designs or print the CD's contents right on the disc itself, no need to use cumbersome labels.
The printer's built-in wireless and wired network printing helps you get more out of your printer by sharing it with your entire network. You can also use the wireless to scan images and documents to any computer on the network. Additionally, the printer is compatible with Apple AirPrint.
The printer's auto duplex mode lets you print on both sides of the page without having to manually turn the pages over. Now you can easily create 2-sided documents and cut your paper consumption by up to 50%. Additionally, with Canon's Easy-WebPrint EX you can easily create printouts from any website with only the parts you need. You can even move, resize, and trim clips from different pages and save the layout as a PDF file. You can also use the printer to create an index print of all your photos, print directly from your Smartphone, memory card or USB key, and to create a passport or ID photo.
Scanning with the PIXMA MG5320 is easy; you can initiate a scan either from the computer or from the scanner. Using either method, the scanner will automatically detect the type of document being scanned and apply the appropriate settings. Should the scan need to be retouched, the printer's Auto Document Fix or Auto Photo Fix II will correct issues such as faded print, over-exposure, under-exposure, and skin tones.
The copy function allows for both standard 1-sided copies as well as 2-sided copies. Use the copier to enlarge or shrink an image or document to as small as 25% of the original size up to 4 times the original size. Features such as 4-in-1, 2-in-1, auto exposure/intensity, multiple copy, fit to page, and color correction provide you with all the tools you'll need to not only duplicate but to enhance your documents and photos.

Statin use and association with colorectal cancer survival and risk: case control study with prescription data linkage

BMC Cancer 2012, 12:487 doi:10.1186/1471-2407-12-487Published: 22 October 2012
In Scotland colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer and a leading cause of cancer death. Epidemiological studies have reported conflicting associations between statins and CRC risk and there is one published report of the association between statins and CRC survival.
Analysis was carried out on 309 cases and 294 controls from the Scottish Study of Colorectal Cancer (SOCCS). Cox's hazard and logistic regression models were applied to investigate the association between statin use and CRC risk and survival.
In an adjusted logistic regression model, statins were found to show a statistically significant association for three of the four statin variables and were found to not show a statistically significant association with either all-cause or CRC-specific mortality (OR 0.49; 95%CI 0.49-1.36; p-value = 0.17 and OR 0.33; 95%CI 0.08-1.35; P-value = 0.12, respectively).
We did find a statistically significant association between statin intake and CRC risk but not statin intake and CRC-specific mortality. However, the study was insufficiently powered and larger scale studies may be advisable.

|1 Tablespoon
|1⁄8 Teaspoon
|Finley chopped onion

Cook 20 min. or until the water is full of flavor.
Then add the crabs, with boiling water enough to cover them.
Cover and cook 25 min.
Then allow the crabs to stand in the liquor until slightly cool.
Next take the crab in both hands with the thumbs at the tail end and pull the upper and lower shells apart.
Discard the material that sticks to the upper shell and remove all the orange, waxy material and spongy substance between the halves of the body and at each side.
The edible part of the crab lies in the 2 compact masses remaining and in the small flakes that may be removed from the large claws.

75 year old man | Dana Point, CA, USA | Seeking women 62-75 within 4000 miles
Active within 24 hours
I'm a very active, humorous man of all...
I'm a very active, humorous man of all seasons, have 2 wonderful daughters in No. California and 2 beautiful grand children. I've spent many successful years as the owner of a telecom company and now spend some of my time managing a few projects and have lots of time to spend in a great relationship. I'm genuinely and seriously ready to share lifes journey and adventure with a GRACIOUS lady. If your looking for a quality, classy, upscale fun guy to share all of lifes joys, you have found him. Lets get together and have loads of fun and create wonderful new memories together. The "Gods of Aging" have been very kind to me. My age is a surprise to everyone as I look many years younger than my age and most have difficulty keeping up with me. I think your as old as you think you are. What can I say? "Thank you Gods of aging". I live 4 blocks from the beautiful Pacific Ocean with weather to die for in Dana Point Ca. A fabulous boating community just minutes below Laguna Beach and Newport Beach Ca. Love the water, white sandy beaches here and 75 degree daily weather to die for. I love a mountain lake or river and the fresh smell of pine trees and the delight of a new snowfall. As I get older, I'm attracted to the splendor of the mountains with less traffic and stress, with quaint areas such as Incline Village in North Lake Tahoe in Nevada, Park City Utah and the beautiful mountains of Colorado. This man has a love of snow skiing, tennis and that elusive game of Golf, but is not a deal breaker if you don't do these sports. LoveTravel and wish to share exploring far off places with his sweetheart. I Have a great appreciation of music, from the soulful ballads of Willie Nelson to the romantic songs of Andrea Bocelli. (that's a real stretch...lol.) Love back yard BBQ's with friends and family, walks along the beach watching beautiful sunsets and sharing our dreams with my sweetheart. This romantic man loves to give her flowers for no special reason. My "WISH LIST". She is consistently an absolute JOY TO BE WITH, is a classy, quality lady with no drama and loves great communiction. She's 5'1" to 5'5" (No taller or shorter PLEASE), 60 something to early to mid 70's, Healthy, Petite, Trim Slender, loves sports the outdoors. She's very attractive and easy on the eyes. She can go from casual to formal, but prefers casual. She has a WONDERFUL WARM LOVING ATTITUDE. She is considerate, compassionate and cares about others. She may be still be working, retired, semi retired, was or is a professional or self employed like I am. IT REALLY DOSEN'T MATTER WHERE SHE LIVES NOW, BECAUSE VERY OFTEN COUPLES THAT REALLY "CONNECT" MAY VERY WELL TURN EACH OTHERS WORLD "UPSIDE DOWN" ANYWAY. I would CONSIDER A MOVE for the right lady in an acceptable area. In reality we will never really know where our lifemate will come from. From just around the block or thousands of miles away. (Around the block would be great, but real life is not always that generous...is it? Maybe keep our options open there.) She loves socializing, has great friends and blends well with others. Her life is now is in good order. We have both labored and traveled many, many miles thru the years and now we are finally meeting. With the kiddies out of the "nest", it's her turn to live her dream and go to the next chapter with a suitable lifemate (thats lucky me..lol). She will absolutely be my pal, my best friend, my partner, my soulmate, most probably my mentor and surely my lover and the love of my life, (whew!), and for all that, I would owe her a lifetime of happiness. If the above sounds something like you, then take the initative today and contact me, as life is short. You may have to step out of your "comfort zone" a little bit, but do it just for you. "If you always do what you've always done, then you'll always get what you always got". Photos are worth a thousand words and it is important to me that you have some. Talk soon, Bob

WALLA WALLA -- Whitman College is inviting area residents to join first-year students in reading "The Last Town on Earth," then participating in discussions that include a visit by the book's author.
Since 1998, Whitman College has assigned its incoming freshman students a summer read, that is then discussed with the start of school. The program launched with "The Visit," a 1956 play by Friedrich Durrenmatt. Last year, students read the graphic novel "The Complete Persepolis" by Marjane Satrapi, which is an autobiographical account of Satrapi's childhood in Iran during the Islamic Revolution.
"The Last Town on Earth," by Thomas Mullen, is a work of historical fiction that focuses on the Spanish flu pandemic of 1918. Mullen's story is set in a fictional Washington state town whose leaders are trying to keep the flu away by denying people access in or out of the town. The book poses the moral dilemma of whether to let a sick stranger through its borders.
Muller's story was named Best Debut Novel of 2006 by USA Today, was a Chicago Tribune Best Book of the Year, and received the James Fennimore Cooper Prize for excellence in historical fiction.
Whitman College is hosting two discussions at Cordiner Hall that are open to the public. The first is a faculty panel on Aug. 29 from 2 to 3:30 p.m. On Sept. 21, Mullen will discuss his book starting at 7:30 p.m. His talk will be followed by a book-signing.

ASHBURN, VA - JULY 30: Rookie offensive tackle Trent Williams of the Washington Redskins signs autographs for fans following practice on the second day of training camp July 30, 2010 in Ashburn, Virginia. Williams signed his contract with the team early this morning. (Photo by Win McNamee/Getty Images)
Starting left tackle Trent Williams has exited the Washington Redskins' game against the Cincinnati Bengals in the first quarter with an injured right knee. The Redskins say his return Sunday is questionable. Williams, the No. 4 overall pick in the 2010 draft, was hurt on Washington's second play from scrimmage. He covered his face with his hands while trainers examined him on the field. Williams walked over to the sideline, where he was looked at again. He eventually headed to the locker room and was not on the field for Washington's second possession. Taking over at left tackle was Jordan Black, who was out of the NFL last year.

In this picture released by the Free Patriotic Movement media office, FPM leader Michel Aoun speaks during the weekly meeting of his bloc in Rabieh, Lebanon, Tuesday, Nov. 8, 2011. (Charbel Nakhoul/The Daily Star, HO)
BEIRUT: Free Patriotic Movement leader MP Michel Aoun said Tuesday that Hezbollah would only hand over its weapons if the Lebanese Army becomes capable of protecting the country.
"First give Lebanon security and then ask for the disarmament of Hezbollah," said Aoun in response to calls from March 14 officials to put Hezbollah's arms as the No. 1 item on any new national dialogue session.
Following his weekly meeting of the Change and Reform bloc in Rabieh, Aoun said that the army should first be properly equipped so that Hezbollah would lay down its arms.
Commenting on the possible return of former Prime Minister Saad Hariri to Beirut, Aoun said that another "one-way" awaits Hariri if he returns.

Who killed WCW? Maybe the question should be what killed WCW? Any which way you look at it, the question does not have a simple answer. Some people may have a quick answer but it's not so easy.
Why even pose this question some twelve years after the promotion closed? Well, I just finished reading the Death of WCW book by Bryan Alvarez and R.D. Reynolds. The book got me thinking (which is dangerous) as to who really killed WCW. I recommend reading the book because it gives you a nice timeline of how WCW went from a distant second behind the WWF to almost putting the WWF out of business to being out of business themselves.
I would venture a guess that's there's a good portion of you that read this website that never saw a live WCW match. It is for you that I really write this column. It's important that people know what WCW was. WCW was the company that almost sent Vince McMahon to the poor house. If you've only been watching wrestling for the last ten years then you only know WWE as the global entertainment conglomerate that it is. WCW came very close to squashing that dream. For the rest of us that lived through the Monday Night Wars it's important to see what went wrong and how the wrestling business changed forever.
So who killed WCW? Many say it was Hulk Hogan. Hell, his track record in TNA is doing him no favors in debunking that myth. I will say that while Hogan certainly didn't help matters he didn't kill WCW. Hulk Hogan saved WCW. The Atlanta based organization was floundering in 1994. WWF wasn't doing much better but they were entrenched as the number one wrestling promotion in North America. While WCW was number two it wasn't really that close. Almost, but not as bad as TNA is to WWE today. WCW needed something or more like someone to put them on WWF's level. That man was the Hulkster. Hogan garnered WCW media attention and raised buy rates on PPV and ratings on TV. Love him or hate him, Hogan is the biggest star that this industry has ever seen. The way he put WWF and WCW on the map with his star power is a testament to that.
Of course, to convince Hogan to come out of retirement Eric Bischoff, the man in charge of WCW had to make it worth his while. Hogan received a huge guaranteed deal and full creative control of his character. That meant if Hulk Hogan didn't want to lose to someone, he didn't. Early on is his WCW tenure this wasn't much of a problem as fans were into the rebirth of Hulkamania. Then he turned heel at the Bash of the Beach in 1996 and the nWo was formed. That wasn't Hogan's idea. It was Bischoff's. If Hulk had said no, the nWo as we knew it wouldn't have been formed and maybe WCW never becomes the number one promotion in North America.
I'm sure Hogan was no angel in WCW. His backstage politics in WCW, WWF and TNA are well known. The extent of how bad it may have been may be overblown by people that just don't like Hulk. The fact of the matter is he did pull his "creative control" clause many times. He refused to put people over, he got the title almost at will, and he would walk out and come back as he pleased. None of that was best for business (Hi, Triple H) but that fact of the matter is that he was only doing what he was allowed to do. If you let your child play with a lighter and then he burns the house down it's not the kid's fault the house burned down, it's yours. When Hogan's drawing power diminished his huge salary wasn't justified anymore but because he had creative control nobody was going to tell him to work with the young guys and put Chavo Guerrero over. I don't blame Hulk Hogan for the demise of WCW. He brought the company to new heights and wasn't the driving force behind its downfall. It's more the people that enabled him that he himself.
Before we get to the people that enabled Hogan, another popular whipping boy for the death of WCW is Kevin Nash. Nash has been labeled as a selfish, lazy worker. It's no secret that his reign as WWF Champion nearly bankrupt the company. When Bischoff brought him in and the nWo was formed he was a major factor in that. The reason he gets a bad rap is because he gained power backstage. Nash was actually the lead booker for WCW for a time. He booked himself to beat Goldberg for the WCW Championship and end his unprecedented winning streak. That alone may have been the worst single thing that ever happened in WCW. He booked Nitros with no wrestling in the first hour and featured stupid skits and even stupider angles. Because of this, people like to blame Nash and even when he wasn't booking shows he still had a huge guaranteed deal and the dreaded creative control that was seemingly drowning the company. The fact is, Nash didn't have the book long enough to sink the company. The company was already springing leaks when he was booking shows.
I guess irony is the word you use when the man that was responsible for building the company to its greatest heights is also the reason it reached its lowest low. That man is Eric Bischoff. When he took over WCW he had the one thing every spoiled brat has that makes you want to choke them, money. Money they didn't earn and spend without a care in the world. You spend like money doesn't matter when it is not your money. That's exactly what Bischoff did. WWF guys had to work on downside guarantees which meant you had to put your working boots on to make more money. It wasn't like that in WCW. Free agents were given guaranteed deals meaning that they could be a workhorse or a lazy ass and make the same amount of money. That was one of the biggest reasons WCW was able to grow. They spent like crazy, guaranteed the money and attracted a lot of stars with that.
In WCW's later days that type of spending came back to bite them. They were hemorrhaging money and needed badly to cut costs, they couldn't because of the millions they had to pay to aging stars that weren't drawing. Wrestlers weren't the only thing "ATM Eric" as he was called, wasted money on. Remember the Junkyard Battle Royal WCW did on one of their PPVs? If you don't you're a better person for it. It was shot in an actual junkyard and was a venture as dangerous as it was expensive as several of the wrestlers wound up in the hospital after the match.
Borderline (I'm being really nice) celebrities were brought in on huge deals to virtually do nothing. Rapper Master P was brought in which would have been fine if one of his lackeys wasn't making $400,000/year working a very light schedule and doing things that make The Great Khali look like Bret Hart. The band KISS was brought in and caused WCW to lose money as their pay certainly wasn't justified as when they performed on Nitro, people watched RAW. The spending was out of control. Eric could have had fiscal responsibility but why would you when it's not your money? Eric Bischoff was a true visionary in the world of wrestling. He knew what it would take to bring WCW to the promise land. He had the stones to do things no one else would ever dream of and it worked. The problem Eric had is he never looked past today. Hogan, Nash and Ric Flair were in the twilight of their careers in the late 90s and he never did anything to ensure the company's future. He has to be given credit for giving Chris Jericho, Dean Malenko, Eddie Guerrero and Rey Mysterio their first big chance but they were never more that reliable midcarders. He relied on the horses that were winning the race for him but eventually that horse can't run anymore. He never saw that far ahead.
When Goldberg was becoming WCW's Steve Austin he got over despite his booking because he was something new and fresh and Bischoff did little to protect him instead he let Hogan and Nash run wild and kill the character. Then again it's hard to blame Eric to keep riding those ponies. In reality he had no choice because of that dreaded CREATIVE CONTROL guys had. The only one in WWE that has creative control is Vince McMahon and that's why WWE has survived the test of time. The inmates don't run the asylum like they did in WCW. As I said before though, he was just doing what he was allowed to do.
Another well traveled theory is that Vince Russo killed WCW. He did not. WCW was already dying when he got there. He was brought in to help save the company. All he did was make matters worse. WCW saw Russo as the guy he said he was, the man that was the brain behind the Attitude Era in WWF. While Russo did help turn WWF around, he had Vince McMahon to control him. In WCW he did what he wanted to do and there was wacky swerve after wacky swerve after wacky swerve. Let's not forget that he booked David Arquette and himself as WCW Champion. Ok, so maybe we can blame him for the death of WCW. Once you kill the value of the company's main title the fans have nothing to invest themselves in because then what are these guys fighting for?
Did Jamie Kellner kill WCW? Who? Well, keep your pants on and I'll tell you. AOL and Time Warner merged. Mr. Kellner became the new chairman of the Turner stations and saw the insane amount of money WCW was losing and cancelled both Nitro and Thunder. Granted, we wrestling fans should hate the guy because he was some TV executive that never watched wrestling and had a very low opinion of it and the people that watched it. The fact of the matter is that at the time Bischoff was putting together a group that was going to buy WCW and keep it alive. All with the premise that it would stay on TBS and TNT. When Kellner cancelled all WCW shows the brand became worthless and died. But did Jamie Kellner kill WCW? In short yes. If he didn't cancel Nitro, WCW would have been bought by Eric Bischoff's group and lived on to see another day. He's not the person that's really responsible for killing WCW. He was merely the man who kicked a nearly dead carcass into its grave.
You've read nearly 1,900 words waiting for one simple answer: who killed WCW? Ted Turner killed WCW. The man that owned WCW killed his own company. When Vince McMahon threatened to "kill" the WWF by bringing in the nWo for a lethal dose of poison that was just a story. When Turner brought in Bischoff, that was his lethal dose of poison. People are often blinded by love and Turner was as well. WCW was his baby. In the early 90s when WCW was losing money his board members wanted him to cancel WCW programming, he said no. He had such an affinity for wrestling because it was the backbone of his TBS station and a program that really helped the fledgling station get going. He brought in Bischoff, handed him the keys to the car and never once asked where he was going. Ratings went through the roof, Eric asked for more money to keep ratings up. Ratings tanked and Eric asked for more money to try and save the company and all the while Ted kept signing those checks. If Turner had once asked Bischoff to spend wisely or sign wrestlers to contracts that were better for the company than maybe WCW would still be here. If he would have restructured the company with people that had a clue in 1999, then maybe WCW wouldn't have lost $62 million in their last year in business. Then maybe Kellner would have saw WCW as a profitable venture and not pulled the plug on their TV. The man that probably loved WCW more than anyone else was also the one that killed it.
Any business that fails in this country fails because of one person, the owner. For all of WCW's crappy booking and bad contracts, Turner employed the men that allowed that to go on. He could have said no. It was his money and he had every right to do so. Maybe he was naïve and didn't see Bischoff as the money spending poison he turned out to be. If he did, WCW may still very well be here.
I was and always will be a WWF/E guy. It's what I grew up watching and it's the style of wrestling I've come accustomed to and like the most. That said, WCW was what was best for the wrestling business. It created competition and better TV shows. It was better for the fans and the wrestlers. It's a shame that WCW is dead no matter whom you think killed it.
Plug Me!

Date of Stay: March, 2015
This park is not a resort unless you are a golf lover. Even then that is pushing it. Shower areas are filthy and scary to shower in. Laundry is very small both areas have only 4 washers. Power goes off all the time here without warning. Not very good for electronics in the unit. When water is working the pressure is very poor. Park is over 15 miles to the nearest grocery store so laying in supplies is a must. Office staff makes up rules as they go. Policies change constantly without notice to anyone. I would not stay in this joke of a park again.
Date of Stay: January, 2014
Park is older. Roads are not in good condition. Staff is not overly friendly. Front half of the park has covered picnic tables. The back half of the park does not. Cell service is horrible here, on all carriers. WIFI is very poor. This being said it is a good value. I would camp here again.
Date of Stay: September, 2013
We are Escapees members and the rate is that of an escapee member. The park needs alot of work. Sites are gravel and not level. People in the office are not very helpful. Actually the manager of the park is somewhat rude. They have permanent residents that have units that look like they have survived a war. This park is not conducive to larger units. We will not stay here again.
Date of Stay: August, 2013
The park is very quaint. It is somewhat run down. Owners are very nice people. The sites are not really long enough for big rigs. The sites are not level at all. Power is good and so is the water. It is a good stop for overnight.
Date of Stay: March, 2013
People in office are not helpful. Actually they are somewhat unhelpful. Internet service is non-existent. Spaces are not conducive to large rigs. Too many full time residents. Park is run down and dirty.
Date of Stay: March, 2013
Great location. Staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. Activities are a great time for all.

14-story Midtown boutique with a hip Downtown vibe
The Gershwin Hotel may have a private gallery, while the Washingon Square Hotel and Hotel Chelsea wouldn't be the same without their collections of homespun art, but Hotel Chambers, a 77-room Midtown East boutique, trumps even these legendary hotels with its collection of more than 500 original pieces of contemporary art in the lobby and guest rooms. The handsome property opened in 2001 as the brainchild of three hoteliers: Ira Drukier, Richard Born, and Steve Caspi -- responsible for many of the beloved boutiques in the city, including the Bowery and the Maritime, but Hotel Chambers is in a class of its own. From the fine walnut floor covered with Tibetan and Turkish rugs and the working two-story gas fireplace in the lobby, to the front desk made of parchment and Macascar Ebony and the leather- and mohair-upholstered couches, the details of this hotel have been as carefully curated as the works of art.
Art work is everywhere. Nearly every hallway of this 14-floor building is a de facto art gallery. The mezzanine level features a huge collection of coffee-table books on art, photography, design, and travel. There's original work hung throughout the lobby and in all of the guest rooms, too. Walls across from the elevators are painted with bright and elaborate murals featuring everything from birds to knights.
Located in bustling, tourist-friendly Midtown East -- three blocks from Central Park
The Chambers Hotel is located on a fairly quiet side street -- 56th Street between 5th and 6th Avenues -- in Midtown West, famous for its plethora of flagship luxury stores and mid-range shops. The hotel is also just a few blocks from the tony, residential Upper East Side and three blocks from Central Park, the world-famous 843-acre haven for the urban outdoorsman. Leisure guests will value the hotel's proximity to spots like Radio City Music Hall, Rockefeller Center, and the MOMA -- all within a six block radius. Columbus Circle and the Time Warner Center are about a pleasant 10-minute walk east on Central Park South.
Shopping is a popular pastime near Chambers, since the hotel is located close to the three Bs: Bloomingdales, Barney's, and Bergdorf Goodman's -- as well as plenty of other popular high and midrange shops, from Tiffany's & Co to the Apple Store.
Since the hotel is located in what is considered primarily a business district, crowds do tend to dissipate at night, but guests shouldn't feel threatened -- this neighborhood is plenty safe, if not a little dull in the evenings.Transportation is easily accessible. A doorman is always available to hail a yellow cab for guests, and access to numerous subway lines -- the F, N, R, B, Q, 4, 5, 6 -- are within three to five blocks. Parking is available on-site but expect to pay a pretty penny for it.
Relaxing rooms with platform beds design concept bathrooms
There are 77 guest rooms and suites at Chambers Hotel and each one is a little different in terms of layout, size, original artwork, and view -- but all are decorated with high-quality wood furniture and floors, purple and brown accents, and platform beds dressed in Frette sheets and lovely lavender chambray Fili D'Oro pillow shams. Standard Rooms are the smallest but still quite spacious by New York standards, with tall windows and a green armchair and ottoman, plus a large work desk. These rooms are carpeted. Bathrooms get high marks for water pressure in glass encased rainhead showers, concrete floors, and stylish bowl sinks. Fun extras include orange slippers, gourmet minibars, and free bottled water. All Standard Rooms look out onto the brick side of a neighboring building. Upgrade to a Deluxe Room for floor-to-ceiling windows on two walls and views of 5th Avenue or 56th Street. Suites are over-the-top spacious and divided into two levels via a wooden staircase. Some of them have huge furnished terraces overlooking the city. Technology here is pretty great, too. Rooms come with a wall-mounted 42-inch plasma flat-screen TV, iPod docks, fully loaded iPad, DVD player, and in-room safes large enough for laptops. Noise and cleanliness aren't issues here.
This little boutique packs a punch with lots of memorable freebies
This small boutique may lack the traditional features of a high-end boutique like an on-site fitness center or business center, but what it offers is thoughtful and a great value -- like free passes to a nearby New York Healthy & Racquet Club (with swimming pool), free Wi-Fi, and iPads to borrow. The hotel also offers in-room yoga instruction and massages. A fax machine and printer are available on request. A DVD library has an extensive list of titles with everything from art house to indie to old classics.
David Chang's Ma Peche, Milk Bar, and room service
Celebrity chef David Chang (of Momofuku fame) opened Ma Peche at the hotel in 2009. The restaurant serves French-Vietnamese dishes like beef tartare and rice noodles with spicy pork in the intimate main dining room for lunch and dinner, and breakfast is served on the mezzanine. The Milk Bar dessert counter serves inventive cookies, cakes, pies, and breads -- along with specialty coffees. A limited version of the Ma Peche menu is available from room service until late at night. Most guests take advantage of the plethora of fine dining, hot dog carts, and ethnic restaurants around the hotel. Concierge can offer recommendations and snag table reservations at hot spots.
Between the contemporary art (even in the guest rooms) and the high-design lobby, this luxury boutique feels as much like a SoHo gallery as a hotel. Central Park, the Museum of Modern Art, and Fifth Avenue are all within a three block radius. The cheapest rooms might feel like a tight squeeze but they're spacious for New York standards and lofted suites with expansive balconies are more like luxury apartments than hotel rooms. David Chang's Ma Peche restaurant and Milk Bar are hot spots for Manhattanites and hotel guests. There isn't a fitness center but guests get free passes to a nearby gym and pool. Chambers Hotel is a rare find for the Midtown East neighborhood. Though prices are high, most hotels in this neighborhood (St. Regis New York,The Peninsula New York, Four Seasons New York) are even higher and they don't offer room service by David Chang.

Postthrombotic Syndrome (PTS) continued...
"The way that blood gets back to the heart from the feet and legs is by being squeezed up by the muscle action in our legs as we walk around," Cooke says.
Lying with your legs elevated above your heart can also help reduce swelling and pain.
"Unfortunately there aren't great preventive strategies for postthrombotic syndrome other than making sure you don't get a DVT," Evans says. "The current recommendation is that all patients with a DVT be fitted for prescription-strength compression stockings to try to prevent the PTS."
Get Moving ASAP
In the past, people with DVT were put on hospital bed rest to lessen the chances of a pulmonary embolism. But several studies have shown that patients who began walking after getting blood thinners and compression stockings were no more likely to develop PE than patients told to stay in bed. Talk to your doctor about whether exercising soon after a DVT is right for you.
Take These Steps to Prevent Another DVT
- If you have had pelvic surgery or are hospitalized, make sure you are receiving DVT prevention. "Options in the hospital include low-dose anticoagulants, or blood thinners, and mechanical devices that help blood in the veins circulate," Evans says.
- At work or while traveling, get up and move around every hour or two.
- Keep a healthy weight. Being overweight or obese is associated with higher rates of DVT and PE.
- Avoid taking estrogen if you have a family history of DVT. "Someone with a family history of DVT should think triple hard about taking birth control pills," Cooke says.
