What are we looking for?
This week, we're taking a look at what makes the market tick.
If you've traded a stock before, you will be familiar with the bid/ask spread. Basically, it shows you how much buyers are willing to pay (the bid) and how much sellers are willing to accept (the ask). The asking price is generally higher than the bid and the highly evolved business of matching up that imbalance makes for an efficient market.
But sometimes it doesn't work out that way.
More about today's screen
Alison Crosthwait, head of research at ITG Canada, has been digging through the data on stock pricing for the S&P/TSX composite index in the first quarter. One of the things she's been looking at is what happens when the bid/ask spread breaks down.
There are actually two different things she's been keeping tabs on: how often the bid and ask are identical (what's called a locked market); and how often the bid is actually higher than the ask (a crossed market).
Locked markets usually happen when there are a lot of electronic participants (i.e. high-frequency traders). Locked markets can be good for a retail investor since there is no spread to pay, but sometimes the volume of shares trading hands will be more a sign of how much the arbitragers can wring out of a locked market than a reflection of demand for the company's stock.
Crossed markets, meanwhile, are never a good thing - as Ms. Crosthwait put it in an e-mail, "no one wants to pay more than the current offer."
A crossed market almost always happens because of a technological lag. With Canadian shares moving on various alternate trading venues and price feeds lagging ever so slightly behind one another, sometimes a buyer doesn't know there's a cheaper price out there.
What did we find?
You see a lot more locked markets than crossed markets.
The market for Gabriel Resources was locked 18 per cent of the time in the first quarter and all the names in the top 10 were locked more than 15 per cent of the time. There was a rule change in February to eliminate intentionally locked markets that should reduce how often this occurs, but it will continue to happen by accident and it will continue to particularly affect volume data.
Looking at the most frequently crossed markets, one of the things that stands out is how frequently Quadra Mining shares were crossed. One possible explanation for this would be that it's a name traded more often by a broker with less of a focus on trading technology. Inter Pipeline Fund's presence on both lists likely reflects similar technological disadvantages somewhere in the chain - a slow data feed or a lack of sophisticated smart order routers to search out the best possible price for a client are likely to blame.
If you want to find out what all this might be costing you, try asking your broker if you are getting the best price available.

on Nov. 01, 2011 :
If you're looking for warm fuzzies, don't stop here. If you're looking for a thought provoking read that peels back multiple layers of skin and exposes a raw nerve or two, Where's Unimportant is for you.
This psychological story isn't the fastest paced, nor is it a 'perfect' book, but it does create numerous images which linger well after the story is finished.
Daniel Shortell has succeeded in creating a memorable work.

James Wallace Birch
on Sep. 06, 2011 :
Where's Unimportant is a dark and disturbing ride that plunges the reader into the depths of a psyche addled by the drugery of everyday American life.
I enjoyed Where's Unimportant. It is a thought provoking book, and being in the same age range and having a similar upbringing to Jack, the main character, I felt like I was reading about a friend. Where's Unimportant is painfully honest and it forces the reader to reflect on their own life and to wonder about what's important. If you're looking for a book that really makes you think or one that pulls back the veneer of the world today, Where's Unimportant is the perfect read. If, however, you're looking for action-packed then Where's Unimportant might not be for you. The pacing is a little slow toward the middle. This didn't bother me, as I saw this book operating on a different level, but it may some.
This thought-provoking book empowers the reader to step back and reflect on their own decisions, the direction of their life, and what it all means, while watching Jack fall apart. It is a rather disturbing read but one well worth it!
Warning: I wouldn't read it right before bed. I read one convo Jack has with a woman on a train during his travels right before sleep and it gave me a nightmare!

Rosberg takes day one honours at Silverstone
28 June 2013
Nico Rosberg took the honours for Mercedes on the opening day of action for Sunday's 2013 F1 British Grand Prix.
After the first session this morning was a virtual wash-out, all the runners made the most of dry conditions, with Rosberg moving to the top 50 minutes in, his best lap a 1 minute 32.248 seconds. In the end that left him almost three tenths up on the Red Bull of Mark Webber, while Sebastian Vettel was third in the sister RB9, 0.133 seconds slower.
Britain's Paul di Resta led the way for the home contingent in fourth in his Force India, just ahead of fellow countryman and Mercedes driver Lewis Hamilton, the last of the runners in the 1m 32s bracket.
Behind, Daniel Ricciardo and Jean-Eric Vergne took sixth and seventh for Toro Rosso, with Force India's Adrian Sutil, Lotus' Romain Grosjean and Ferrari team leader, Fernando Alonso rounding out the top ten. Alonso's best – a 1m 33.494s – was more than a second off the pace.
Jenson Button was eleventh for McLaren, despite the Woking-based team taking a number of updates to Silverstone, two spots ahead of team-mate, Sergio Perez in P14, while Nico Hulkenberg and Kimi Raikkonen were sandwiched between in twelfth and thirteenth.
Esteban Gutierrez was next up with the Williams of Valtteri Bottas and Pastor Maldonado in 16th and 17th.
Jules Bianchi led the 'third' division for Marussia, two tenths up on Caterham's Giedo van der Garde. Charles Pic and Max Chilton trailed, with Ferrari #2 Felipe Massa slowest and only doing 7 laps after he went off and into the barriers at Stowe, 20 or so minutes into the session. Unsurprisingly he did the least amount of laps, while at the other end of the spectrum, Vergne and Grosjean did the most, 38 each.

BioScrip Announces Redemption Of Notes
ELMSFORD, N.Y., July 19, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- BioScrip ®, Inc. (NASDAQ: BIOS) ("BioScrip") announced today that it has irrevocably called for redemption on August 19, 2013 (the "Redemption Date") all of its $225 million aggregate principal amount of 10 ¼% Senior Notes due 2015 (CUSIP No. 09069NAC2) (the "Notes") that remain outstanding on the Redemption Date after completion of the Offer (as defined below), at a redemption price equal to 105.125% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the Redemption Date (the "Redemption Price"). Notices of redemption are being delivered at the request and on behalf of BioScrip by U.S. Bank National Association, the trustee for the Notes, to the registered holders of such Notes. BioScrip previously announced that it had commenced a cash tender offer (the "Tender Offer") and consent solicitation (the "Consent Solicitation," and together with the Tender Offer, the "Offer") for any and all of the Notes. The Offer is described in the Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement dated June 3, 2013 (the "Offer to Purchase").BioScrip also previously announced that it had extended each of the consent payment deadline for the Consent Solicitation, the withdrawal deadline for the Consent Solicitation and the expiration date of the Offer to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on July 30, 2013, unless further extended by BioScrip in its sole discretion (the "Expiration Date"). Holders who validly tender their Notes and provide their consents to the proposed amendments to the indenture governing the Notes prior to the Expiration Date will receive $1,056.25 per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes (which amount includes a consent payment of $30.00 per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes), plus any accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes up to, but not including, the payment date for such Notes. For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding today's announcement of the redemption of the Notes, all terms and conditions of the Offer remain unchanged. As of the close of business on July 18, 2013, based on information provided by Global Bondholder Services Corporation, the Depositary and Information Agent for the Offer, the consents of approximately $104.4 million in aggregate principal amount, or 46.38%, of the outstanding Notes have been received. BioScrip's obligation to accept for purchase, and to pay for, any Notes in the Offer is subject to satisfaction or waiver of a number of conditions that are set forth in the Offer to Purchase, including, without limitation, (i) the receipt by BioScrip of net proceeds from the new senior secured term loan and revolving credit facility on terms and conditions satisfactory to BioScrip in an amount that is sufficient to pay the total consideration (including consent payment) in respect of all Notes (regardless of the actual amount of Notes tendered) plus estimated fees and expenses relating to the Offer (the "Financing Condition") and (ii) the receipt of the required consents to amend and supplement the indenture governing the Notes in connection with the Consent Solicitation and the execution of a supplemental indenture effecting such amendments by the applicable parties. There can be no assurance that the Financing Condition and the transactions contemplated by the Financing Condition will be consummated or that any other condition to the Offer will be satisfied. BioScrip reserves the right to waive any of the conditions to the Offer. If the Offer is terminated or withdrawn, no consideration will be paid or become payable in respect of the tendered Notes and the Notes tendered pursuant to the Offer will be promptly returned to the tendering holders.

"Manly" Top 5 Page for this destination Manly by cjg1
Manly Travel Guide: 241 reviews and 564 photos
Manly to me is a must see when visiting Sydney. I love the ferry ride from Circular Quay; it is wonderful seeing the sights from the water.
Manly has that beach town feel with a long Corso full of shopping and food options. The place is always hopping with surfers, beach goers, families, tourists and even the older set enjoying a walk. The buzz of activity makes Manly the perfect place to people watch from the beach, a park bench or an outdoor cafe.
Every trip I have taken to Sydney has brought a visit or several to Manly. I must admit I do love taking a ferry anywhere but Manly is my favorite ferry ride.
I first brought my wife here in during our 2007 trip (before she was my wife). She loved the beach and the Corso. She said it reminded her of a smaller version of Nice.
Our most recent trips in 2012 brought us to Manly several times; for shopping, for the beach and for lunch. The weather was beautiful; although a bit too chilly for my liking but we had a wonderful time here.

The labor bubble
The UAE government may prohibit private companies from firing Emiratis arbitrarily.
February 15, 2009 1:31 by Dana El Baltaji
Private companies may soon be prohibited from firing Emiratis unless they violate the labor law, reports Gulf News. The National Human Resource Development and Employment Authority (Tanmia), a government body aimed at safeguarding Emiratis' jobs, has submitted a proposal to the Ministry of Labor demanding all private companies planning on firing Emiratis due to corporate restructuring, cost-cutting measures or due to mergers to inform the ministry of labor before taking action.
The proposal also states that private companies must exhaust all alternatives before deciding on terminating their contract with an Emirati employee, including relocating the employee to another department, suggesting part-time working hours and salary reductions and providing the employee with training.
Tanmia has also asked the General Pensions and Social Security Authority to protect Emiratis who have been made redundant by providing unemployment insurance.
The UAE, however, is not the only GCC nation trying to protect its citizens from the effects of financial crisis. Kipp reported in January that the Saudi Minister of Labor warned private companies not to fire Saudi nationals due to the credit crisis: "The Ministry of Labor is capable of stopping the retrenchment of Saudi workers if it becomes a phenomenon in violation of the labor regulations," Ghazi Al-Gosaibi said.
The UAE government, however, readily admits that many of its citizens lack both proper training and the right attitude to succeed in the private sector: "…We have found that 25 percent of the [Emirati] workers lack basic reading and writing skills," said Dr Khalid Al Khazraji, former undersecretary at the Ministry of Labor and former head of the Tanmia to XPRESS.
"Work attitude is another challenge that the UAE workforce faces while entering the labor market. Emiratis have to be accustomed to the expatriate work culture," he added.
The global financial meltdown, however, has forced companies to take a Darwinian approach to handling their workforce. With tens of companies on the brink of collapse in the UAE, the government may be aiming to curb an already high rate of unemployment among Emiratis.
A survey by the Ministry of Economy showed that the unemployment rate among UAE citizens is 12.7 percent and 2.6 percent among expatriates (considering the visa requirements of expatriates living in the country, the discrepancy between the unemployment rates is understandable).
Fears that the Emirati unemployment rate may rise further due to the financial crisis may have prompted Tanmia to submit its proposal; indeed, if nationals are further excluded from the private sector, the nation may never meet the Ministry of Labor's goal of doubling the Emirati workforce to 500,000 by 2020.

Any employee that will not benefit the bottom line should be let go. Using nationality to retain employment is not justifiable.
What do the authorities think what effect such an instant arbitrary measure of prohibiting companies to fire Emiratis has on the management of companies here ? Will it not be "dont hire Emiratis because we never get rid of them" ?
This way such protectionism works counterproductive. Even companies who do not hire Emiratis will now think twice before hiring them.

Welcome to WebmasterWorld
The issue that can present a problem doesn't really have anything to do with the ASP file extension. The part that can cause problems is having query strings in your URLS.
There have been several threads in the the past that discuss various ways to deal with dynamic pages. You can find a few that specifically discuss ASP here.
[searchengineworld.com ]
It really depends. The robots will index URL's with a special character like a ?, and they have the technology to do so. At the same time it is better to have URL's without the special character and there are ways that you can take them out.
Many of the other engines refuse to index them.
One simple way around the ? problem is to use URL replacers so that the poison symbols are excluded.

Getting its "exclusive interview" with Seattle student and unwitting Weinergate dick-pic recipient Gennette Cordova was quite a coup for The New York Post. Cordova, after all, had until then denied all interviews from media outlets.
So how did a reporter from the Post, a paper well known for its tabloid stance on journalistic ethics, land an interview with such a reluctant and high-browed source?By apparently pretending to be anything but a reporter from The New York Post.
At least that's how Cordova herself is characterizing the encounter with Post reporter Reuven Fenton, who she says pretended he was a photographer's assistant during a student-freelancer photo shoot in Bellingham and then published her out-of-context responses to questions she says she never knew were being used in a story.
Cordova Tweets:
I was "Trojan horsed" by an NY Post reporter who never said who he was or that he was interviewing me.less than a minute ago via Echofon Favorite Retweet ReplyGennette N Cordova
It wasnt an interview. I spoke candidly with someone posing as a photog assistant http://politi.co/lCWCys @politicoless than a minute ago via Echofon Favorite Retweet ReplyGennette N Cordova
Cordova also takes issue with one of the main points of the Post's story, which was that she thought Rep. Weiner was intending to send the dick Tweet to a porn star named Ginger Lee.
And I never said the picture was meant for a pornstar. He suggested it and I said maybe. I don't know and don't care @politicoless than a minute ago via Echofon Favorite Retweet ReplyGennette N Cordova
It should be noted that Cordova knew the photos being taken were for the Post, but not that anything she said was going to be quoted. Not that one shouldn't assume that everything is on the record when a tabloid newspaper employee is afoot.
The Washington Post tried to get a comment from Fenton. He refused and referred them to his editors. They also refused to comment, but eventually a NYP spokesperson said simply "We stand by our reporting."
The Post spokesperson did not address whether the paper stands by the methods used to do said reporting.

Israel to boycott 'Durban II' anti-racism conference
Livni tells GA delegates that UN human rights meet set for Geneva turning 'into an anti-Israeli tribunal.'
Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni announced Wednesday that Israel has made a final decision to boycott the United Nations "Durban II" conference on human rights this spring, fearing it would be used once again as a forum for anti-Israeli sentiment.
The World Conference Against Racism, Racial Discrimination, Xenophobia and Related Intolerance, to be held in Geneva in April, is a follow-up to a 2001 summit in Durban, South Africa on the same issues.
"The documents prepared for the conference indicate that it is turning once again into an anti-Israeli tribunal, singling out and delegitimizing the State of Israel," Livni told Jewish-American leaders at the UJC General Assembly in Jerusalem.
"The conference has nothing to do with fighting racism," she said. "In view of this situation, I decided that Israel will not participate and will not legitimize the Durban II conference."
The foreign minister also called on the international community "not to participate in a conference which seeks to legitimize hatred and extremism under the banner of a fight against racism."
Livni had said in February that Israel would botcott the meet, following assessment by the Foreign Ministry, and other Western governments, that it would be impossible to prevent the conference from turning into a festival of anti-Israeli attacks.
South Africa hosted the first Durban conference in the summer of 2001 under the auspices of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights. It was titled "The World Conference against Racism, Racial Discrimination, Xenophobia and Related Intolerance," but most of the discussions revolved around Israel's treatment of the Palestinians.
The United States and Israel responded by lowering the level of their diplomatic representation and eventually quit the conference, which culminated in a resolution equating Zionism and racism.
The two country's issued over the draft texts branding Israel as a racist and apartheid state - language that was later dropped.
That conference had also provided a framework for a global convention of non-governmental organizations, which became a platform for delegitimizing Israel.
In August 2008, officials from 21 African countries held talks ahead of the Geneva conference and adopted a text which recommended it discuss, among other issues, "the plight of the Palestinian people under foreign occupations."
Canada has said it will not take part in the Geneva meeting. The United States, Britain, the Netherlands and France have said they may stay away if Israel's relations with Palestinians stands to eclipse all else.
In September, Navi Pillay, the UN's commissioner for human rights, urged all countries threatening to boycott the Geneva conference to reconsider their decision.

BUT the REAL reason I have signed up on these forums is because of an unexplainable picture I took just last night. I hear banging noises all the time usually late at night, but also during the day as well. My boyfriend told me after seeing that orb in the video, that if I heard any weird noises to start snapping pics. I heard them last night at around 2 am and started snapping pics with my iPhone. I took about 10 or so of my kitchen and stairwell, and when I looked back them, I saw an image of some sort of being with a big head, slit's for eyes, and a sinister looking smile with what looks like it's arm up by it's mouth like it's snickering or something. It freaked me out to say the very least! I want to get everyone's opinion of the pic, just so I can be validated. It looks like a gremlin or something to me. I have zoomed in and tried to sharpen it so you can see it better. It is directly below the white light switch, you will see a pic of my son right above the switch.
Do you see what I see?? If so, what do you think it is? Do you think it will it be harmful to my son? He is almost 3 now... Any feedback is greatly appreciated!

Burger King, bless its congested heart, has reformulated its french fry recipe.
McDonald's is the acknowledged master of the fast food fry, but that hasn't stopped other chains from trying to compete. Wendy's, which is now busy promoting its new "W" burger, last year widened its fries and doused them with fancy-sounding sea salt. And last week, Burger King rolled out its first french fry revamp since the late 1990s.
The new fries are fat as a toothbrush, and - despite company claims that the new recipe has 20 percent less sodium - sparkly with salt. The staffer at the Ballard Burger King who sold me my serving said, "they seem to have more flavor," which may have been a reference to the thick salt coating: The fries struck me as fairly bland, with a slight sour note. A Burger King press release explains the fries are supposed to have a "fluffy, potato taste on the inside," but the crisp outside seemed to be the beneficiary of most of the bulking up. I don't have a clear taste memory of Burger King's previous fry, but my husband, who knows every major chain's value meal menu by heart, deemed the current version "a marginal improvement."
According to Reuters, the fries were designed to stave off competition from smaller chains, such as Five Guys.
"French fries are a big seller for us and we want to make sure we're always improving," Leo Leon, vice president of innovation, said.
Burger King will give away free value size orders of fries on Friday, while supplies last.

Tim Pawlenty's pastor opposes Arizona's anti-immigration law
The Rev. Leith Anderson, pastor at Wooddale Church in Edina -- Gov. Tim Pawlenty's church -- and president of the National Association of Evangelicals, is part of a growing movement among Christian conservatives criticizing Arizona's new and controversial anti-immigration law.
He tells MPR's Bob Collins that the law is "not pro family and we're interested in what we can do to have intact and healthy families."
Where's T-Paw on Arizona's law? It's not clear. He's sympathizing with Arizonans who backed the bill, but he's backed away from saying he'd sign a similar measure in Minnesota.
"It's OK for states to take reasonable and appropriate measures to enforce the laws, and I think that's what Arizona is trying to do," he told The Daily Caller. "I think what you're seeing here is a frustration by Arizona, an understandable frustration, that their concerns haven't been addressed by the federal government."
But when he was asked recently on ABC's Top Line whether he would sig a similar bill in Minnesota, he hedged.
Well we need to be a nation that values legal immigration," Pawlenty said. "It needs to be legal and reasonable and orderly. Our current system is none of that. It is chaotic. It is disorderly and much of it is illegal and so our country has to do a much better job at enforcing."
Pressed for a direct answer, he fell back again on the "better enforcement" line. Here's that clip:
Since it's a pretty sure bet that a Minnesota clone of the Arizona law introduced by GOP state Rep. Steve Drazkowski is going nowhere, T-Paw won't be forced into a position either way as long as he's governor.
The Republican who wants to succeed Pawlenty in the governor's mansion, Tom Emmer, calls the law a "wonderful first step."
The DFL-endorsed candidate, Margaret Anderson Kelliher, opposes the law.
The mayors and chiefs of police in both Minneapolis and St. Paul have also come out strongly against the measure. Congressman Keith Ellison of Minneapolis calls it a "fascist, racist" measure.
The NAE has purchased a full-page ad set to run in tomorrow's edition of Roll Call that declares a need for federal legislation providing "dignity for each person, unity of families, respect of the rule of law, secure borders, and the establishment of a path to legal status for those who wish to become legal residents."
Richard Land of the Southern Baptist Convention and Mathew Staver of Liberty University School of Law, part of the institution founded by Jerry Falwell, are among those leaders who have signed onto the ad.
The news continues a trend. In 2009, the NAE released a position paper promoting comprehensive immigration reform that said, in part, "Discussion of immigration and government immigration policy must begin with the truth that every human being is made in the image of God (Genesis 1:26-28). Immigrants are made in the image of God and have supreme value with the potential to contribute greatly to society. Jesus exemplifies respect toward others who are different in his treatment of the Samaritans (Luke 10:30-37; John 4:1-42)."

After careful consideration prior to DD birth and for a few months afterwards we decided that our friends Becky and Bill would be DD's godparents and would get custody of her should, Heaven forbid, something happen to both of us. I have known Becky since Jr. High and she is DD's babysitter as well. We asked them over dinner and they agreed. We have not had any paperwork done to make this official... The reasons I chose them were because
A) They love my daughter and treat(ed) her as their own
B) They share the same faith as us and place(d) God before everything else in life
C) She is a SAHM
D) they have wanted more children but cannot conceive any longer
E) although not rich they are financially secure
F) They have(had) similar parenting styles as us
Well, since then a lot has changed. Becky is no longer a SAHM which, ok... I can accept. However, she always said that if she ever had to return to work she would not work Sundays due to that being a day of church, worshipping God, and spending the day with the family. Well, now she works Sundays and rarely attends church, no longer attends any Bible Study due to work, she missed our Christmas get together (just her family and our family) due to work, despite knowing about DD's party for over a month and planning to come she called day of and said she couldn't make it because someone at work called out and they asked her to work so she picked up a shift - THEN, she asks if she can come over the following evening to spend time with DD. I said SURE! I will even make dinner. Soooo her DH calls about an hour before they were supposed to meet us to say that Becky will be a bit late because she was stuck at work then wanted to come home and shower... ok... fine. It happens. Well, we waited an hour and a half for her to arrive then she finally calls and says she is tired and is just going to go to bed. It has been 3 days since DD's party and she still hasn't stopped by. To top it all off she currently watches DD one or two days a week while I am at work for a few hours but she no longer wants to do this effective the end of April because of her work (she works at Starbucks by the way so we aren't talking CEO of a corporation or anything here) and she wants to spend more time with her daughter one on one... at MOST she watches DD 8 hours a week - typically only 4 or 5 hours which we do pay her for. I was thinking that there were maybe other financial things going on but based on what her husband was saying that isn't the case unless he chose to volunteer information and it was untruthful. I just really feel like she is no longer attached to DD anymore, or has God as the primary focus of her life, or is even as committed to her own family at this point since she is always picking up extra shifts beyond her full time status. She obviously isn't a SAHM anymore and based on what I have seen over the past few months her and her husband's parenting styles have changed also. About the only thing that has stayed the same is that they can no longer have children of their own. If I knew this was going to happen my DH and I would never have chosen them. We are seriously considering other Godparents for Ella. Would you choose other ones based on what I wrote?

Date of Stay: July, 2014
This KOA is old and in need of a face lift. The park is on Lake Panasoffkee, but only two or three sites can see the lake. There are airboat rides from the park which allows for close up viewing of Florida wildlife. The pool is clean and safe. The staff is terrific. They are kind and caring. This park has at least 20 very old RVs that are from to 1970s or 1980s and they had roof overs, rooms added, mold and mildew cover many of them. Looks like Section 8 housing, only worse. This could be a nice park. Beautiful oaks, the lake, nice employees.
Date of Stay: February, 2014
The park is in a beautiful natural area of Florida. It is set on a narrow river that is filled with gators and fish. They offer canoeing, kayaking, and nature trails. The price of rentals is reasonable. The service is another matter. If you go on the weekends you'll wait for service and the staff is less than kind. The canoe/kayak staff didn't say hello, can I help you or anything. They were extremely rude to everyone I saw come up for service. FYI, the park is in the middle of nowhere so you should ensure that you arrive prepared. There are no restaurants, markets or convenience stores within 25 miles plus. Dirt pads and when it rains, you'll get muddy. As many of my reviews in the past have stated, this is another park that has spent next to nothing on the park in the way of maintenance or updating the tables, sites, swing sets, or anything else. Concrete picnic tables that have been there for decades are crumbling. The only upgrades have been up to the Camp Store and boat ramp. But, if you're looking for a way to see the "old Florida", the place is worth a few days. Try and stay here during the week.
Date of Stay: November, 2013
WOW! What a great state park. We stayed in the newer section called Palmetto Ridge site # 61, an ADA site. The bath houses are nicer than my home bathroom. Spotless, granite counter tops, tile throughout. The park is 12 miles from light pollution which enables you to see the stars in an unbelievable fashion. The wildlife is abundant. You will most likely have visitors throughout the night. Deer at dusk, gators everywhere, pink spoonbills, and many others. This park should be on every campers bucket list. Happy camping.
Date of Stay: May, 2013
The park is extremely well kept and clean. The facilities are first rate. The pool and spa are spacious and very nice. The restrooms and showers were spotless. The Rt 10 Restaurant on site was great, limited hours of 3 till 9, but good food and adult beverages. The staff was exceptional. We will definitely stay again for weekend getaways.
Date of Stay: March, 2013
Great location. Great staff. But the park needs remodeling. Clean the lake of debris, old fountain, and over grown vegetation. Plant flowers and take care of them. Remove rotten wood from planters, bath houses, lake side pickings. If they spent $10k, they could really make this park a premier KOA.
Date of Stay: December, 2012
If you,re staying in Crystal River, Florida, this is the only RV park worth staying in. We stayed here in December of 2012, during the Christmas Holidays. The park is clean, the sites large and most separated by significant vegetation; thereby providing significant privacy. The clubhouse is very nice. The pool, small, but nice. The grounds are hilly, which for Florida, is rare. I highly recommend Rock Crusher RV Park
Date of Stay: July, 2012
The park is old and shows its age. The sites are small and many are difficult to place a motorhome in. The speed bumps are ridiculously high and cause many trailers and campers to drag potions of their underside. Staff was nice. The pool needs to be replaced. It has so many coasts of paint on it that it looks uninviting. The park needs a major renovation but it is close to the perimeter (285).
Date of Stay: July, 2012
A very nice KOA with an excellent staff. Sites are shaded and fairly large. If you do not mind gravel sites and roads, this is a great park close to Colonial Williamsburg.
Date of Stay: July, 2012
An extremely nice park with large sites, plenty of shade, and a great staff. We really liked the park. I would strongly recommend this park.
Date of Stay: July, 2012
You only have electric service, but if you don't mind filling up and emptying your tanks, some of the sites are great. Shaded, on the water or near the lake. For the money, it was a great park for three days.
Date of Stay: July, 2012
A very clean park. Nice shaded sites. KOAs are always a risk, but this one is great. They do need to resurface the pool area and improve its over all look, but that was the only issue that I experienced.
Date of Stay: July, 2012
If you like camping in a parking lot, this place is for you. Other campgrounds on the island are more beautiful and half the price. This may be the worst KOA I've ever camped in. They say they are still recovering from the effects of Hurricane Irene (2011), but the other parks have already completed their recovery. This park shouldn't charge more than $25.00 per night until they make it something other than a parking lot.
Date of Stay: April, 2012
KOA used to mean some degree of quality. This park is terrible. The owners have not spent any money on upkeep or improvements. Many sewer connections are buried or 16 inches high, pads cracked, cable is poor and they haven't planted a tree, shrub or flower in 30 years. The picnic tables are falling apart, fire ants are everywhere, no shade and the water view is of a retention pond. At $35 a night, it is relatively cheap, but it is over priced for what you get.
Date of Stay: March, 2012
Overpriced. Guest are crammed in. Noisy due to location. A typical KOA where they haven't upgraded the place in years.
Date of Stay: February, 2012
Outdated. The place is need of major renovations. It is overpriced. If you can, pass on this location. KOA used to mean something. This place is terrible.

does it worth 140 euro more?
I've just sold my 450d and have to choose: 600d or 650d? Here 600D is 510 euro while 650D is 650 euro. I am not interested in video. IQ seems to be the same. Touchscreen, new autofocus, faster burst burst, digic 5, higher ISO: do they worth 140 euro extra?

I'm trying to develop a cross platform social networking mobile application for iPhone, WindowsPhone, and Android. I have a background with web development, so I was wondering if it was possible if I could make a web application and use the phones to load the website (using something like WebView in Android) when the user launches the applicaion.
I'm fairly new the mobile application development so I'm not sure if that's a possibility. Because, if it is, I would surely want to go that way and make web-loader kind-of applications on all the three platforms and have them load up the web when the user launches the app.
I wanted to know if that is possible, or not. Or has someone tried anything similar.
Added after edit: I'm aware that there are many frameworks out there that are for this purpose, but Its not possible for me to learn them to implement this. It's kind-of an academic project, that I want to complete asap.
