REITS are great investments when they yeilded above 6% but now they are just plain overvalued. They are ripe for the pickin.
I am short 1,000,000. worth of REITS and am down about 60k..
I am beginning to get impatient and I think of the saying, "markets can remain irrational longet than you can remain solvent"
All I see is up up up with no end in sight..Is everyone crazy?
I am holding my short postiiton as long as I can stand it but I don't know how much longer that will be.
someone please help me feel better about what i am doing!!!!
no im still here and im still short.. the year is young
How high is this roof its going through?
(I think by now glennfish covered the short position, eh?)
I am also aware of that
I used to be employed there
Holding onto stock and waiting because its gonna go through the roof
This is a very strong company
DDR up another 3.6% to an all time high since March 1st. I read your post about naked call, short sale, ouch. I know brokers push those complex trading strategies to make money, for them.
good question...
the reits I shorted we option assignments..
you see, I sold january naked calls in the summer, and for a while I was way up (in hindsight I should have bought to cover in October). but then into the new year these reits went skyward levaing me with shorted exersizable options)
When the calls required me to sell, I did not want to buy the stock back, so I shorted it to my dismay.
The other names you mention ar not optionble except one.
I think all your aftormentioned stcoks also make good shorts, and I will look to do so as soon as I get some afformation that retail reits are headed south as they should be.
right now, I feel like I am swimming against the tide, but hell, even a broken clock is right twice a day.
I'm sure the day will come when I stick my tail between my legs and cover these positions, and the day after the stocks will tank!

Compared to the fellow REITs in the retail non-mall sector which also are not triple-net REITs, DDR payout percentage is roughly in line with the rest of the sector - using the 'percentage' as dividend/FFO. Sample percentages of Q4 Div/ 2006 est FFO:
Those stats are for January ending - using prices and FFO estimates from that date. I am two days away from posting the Feb ending numbers. And Q4 CC's may have changed those FFO estimates.
Coldeye - you are correct in that DDR [and the rest of the retail sector] do have low payout percentages compared to some of the other sectors within REITs. REITs in the Office, Industrial and Hospitality sectors are also low. Apartment, Health Care and Triple-Nets are noticably higher in payout percentage.
Coldeye wrote: [the low payout percentage] is "In effect, a pile of spare ammo to keep the div increases going even if they have a bad year or two. This will help defend the stock price."
That statement is logical, but I have not seen any data that supports that premise. In fact, REITs with a low payout percentage MAY be using the retained earnings to assist in funding expansion/development. And that in turn could lead to even greater stock price volatility.
Banks also vary a good bit in their payout percentages [Div/EPS], and I have not noticed that this ratio effects volatility. But then again, I have not measured that attribute - in any sector. So I will call on others to give witness to this interesting theory.
Correct me if I'm wrong (I'm a real estate guy, not a REIT guy), but isn't it fair to say that (in addition to the points you made) DDR's pay out percentage is modest? In effect, DDR has a pile of spare ammo to keep the div increases going even if they have a bad year or two. This will help defend the stock price. I'm no genius, but it seems to me that there are better short candidates than DDR.
I can see some short sales as a hedge technique but your predicament seems too risky. Are you actually betting against a rise in commercial real estate pricing? Are you comfortable paying my dividends? On the bright side, you'll probably get a chance to exit your position to break-even in March. Reit dips are what big buyers wait for so I'd act fast during the next 6% dip.
interesting artcle but i don't see how it relates to reits??

I too will join you on this crusade Pingo. We must defend the prople of Varisia and defeat those who would threaten and oppress the innocent citizens of Varisia.
My mount Silver and I vow to protect, defend and bring the ideals of the Silver Crusade and the Order of the Dragon to this endangered land.
We must and will triumph
Merisa, Cavalier of the Order of the Dragon and Cleric of Kurgess
Merisa turns to greet the newcomers to the hall, "it is so inspiring and encouraging that such a variety of people are willing to devote their lives to spreading peace and goodness. Welcome to you all," with that she bows to each new arrival.
A slender pale, silver blonde woman enters the hall, dressed in a black dragonhide breatplate and carrying a silver coloured helm adorned with a plume of silver horsehair. She smiles broadly and relaxes slightly:
Well met indeed sisters and brothers, I am Merisa, a cavalier of the order of the dragon and a cleric of Kurgess. It is wonderful to be in the presence of those who follow the same path, those looking to defend the weak, free the enslaved and bring light and joy to those who need it.
I do hope that I will get to journey with some of you in the future, my horse, Silver, and I would consider it an honour to bring our skills to your assistance.
If you come across a young Ulfen cleric of Serenrae named Freya, I ask you to help as you can. She is young in inexperienced but working to follow our path. She sometimes feels a little lost among the other pathfinders who follow different paths and would appreciate any encouragement she can get.
May the light shine on all your endeavors.

This park has very unlevel, very close, sunny/open grass only sites. Very rude people as well as workers living there. Not worth the time or money to put up with drunks throwing things. Very scared! It was better to leave. - Sheilagramm

This park is old, but the staff tries to keep it working and the grass mowed :). It is very close to I-80, many sites are not level, and the park is full of pipeline workers staying for several months - they were very friendly though. - Bay Area Early retirees

Martin's has been for sale for several years. While it lasts, it is the best option for a full-hookup campground near Chicago and its south suburbs. The utilities are well maintained and the grass is cut, but it is definitely not a luxury campground. Many of the sites are less than level. At the time of our stay, the campground was full due to the presence of pipeline workers who were engaged in a local project. This necessitated that we take a site without sewer until a full-hookup site was available. The owner was very helpful in meeting our needs. While a really good overnight stop just off I-80, it is less inviting for longer stays. - seeyajohn

While the setting for this campground is excellent, the execution is just shy of horrible! The only reason we stayed at this park was its proximity to family and friends. I would never do so again. Go across the border to Indiana, do not come here! The bathrooms are all but unusable, and my wife has refused to use the shower in the ladies room. I didn't think the previous reviews could be true, but believe them. - Phil_S

This is a very rustic campground with no paved roads or concrete pads. We were very disappointed in the general conditions present and the mud was so bad from the rain the previous day that we nearly got our dually stuck twice just getting to the site. We opted to leave and stay at another park due to the conditions we found in the winter time. It may be more appealing in the summer months, but we cannot recommend it during any kind of wet weather. - RVGFulltimers

We are here for the location. It is the closest to Chicago we could find at 39 miles to Navy Pier. The posts below sum it all up. Could be a really nice park, just needs new owners and an overhaul. Nice quiet location. Our site has 2 sewer connections under our awning, and next to us there is a 30 yr old junk trailer with some one living in it. Not a very appealing park. - RIchardBursch

This is not a campground. This is a transient workplace for people like carnival workers, pipeline workers, welders, carpenters, and workers who are seasonal. The camp host seems nice. Place is very run down. From throwing my trash out before leaving, I saw that they do like their beer. Had I known, I would have stayed elsewhere. - pvcox

Older park in the middle of nowhere. Under new management. They started to put in a new bathhouse in a park model. All pull through sites. They were also in the process of putting gravel on the sites to get them out of the mud. The land is pretty low and it floods with every rainstorm. - Glen_mich
Jul 2008 - $32.00
Under new management so this review is based on current conditions. Park is clean, good interior roads. Sites are long with sufficient room for big rigs and slides. Few trees so satellite OK. Low water pressure - very dirty water requires filtration!! Rest rooms and laundry very dirty, dated, need replacement - no cooling evident. would only use this park for an overnight, about three miles west of I57, some road noise from busy road adjacent to park. Owners very accommodating and will probably clean this park up given enough time to make required updates. - endlesstravels

Okay park it's a bit tight getting out of your space. No sewer but a nice place for overnight stay. Casino has van service from CG to casino. It's a no frills. Nothing going on and no activities. Not for families. We would stay there again if in the area. - hug448844

Yes, free breakfast. Power and water are good. We did a back in and was short. Concrete pads but are short for anything over 38'. Good roads into and out. Good WiFi. Having sewer would have been nice but for 3 days was OK. There is a shower and laundry room if needed. Grass between sites. I would stay again if in the area. There is a train during the day but did not here it at night. - neilontheroad

If you are comfortable camping overnight at a Wal-Mart parking lot, you'll have no problem here. It's a giant truck and bus lot right next to McCormick Convention Center and has gated security. For downtown Chicago access, this place can't be beat. For a pleasurable camping experience, this is not it. I gave it an Average rating because it's a trade-off between location and amenities. There are no services at all, trucks come and go regularly, and you're squeezed between tractor trailers. However, you can take up multiple spaces to put your slides out. There was a small enclave of half a dozen RVs when we arrived, and we parked along with them - safety in numbers! There's a few grassy margins to walk your dog, but I didn't feel comfortable to wander too far from the fenced area at night. Lock the doors, close the curtains, and you'll be fine. We stayed here 2 nights without any issues, and had a great time touring downtown. - Flying Mantis

This is a truck trailer parking lot. Great location to visit downtown Chicago. Walking distance to the train station of McCormick convention center. - Doum Doum
Sep 2015 - $35.00
This is a hard one to rate. It is just a truck/trailer yard where the truckers drop their trailer off and store it on a short term basis or just overnight. The lot itself is only a place to park and stay while in the Chicago area.
However it is right near the heart of Chicago. The closest RV park is at least 40 miles out of the city and with the traffic it would be an hour or more drive in. This is so convenient, which is worth a lot to us. Dry camp and put up with the trucks coming and going. Is it worth it? You decide.
It is gated with security. We felt safe. It is easy to get to.
We will stay here again next time we come to Chicago. - JoeVinnie

Let me preface this review by saying that we got here on a cold, windy, raining afternoon and I did not get a chance to walk around this large park until it was almost dark. So, my comments are not all going to be backed by a clear visual inspection of the facilities and amenities. Like the other fellow who reviewed this park in October, our stay was during the off season when the park was fairly empty and many things were no longer in service. We had a long, fairly level, gravel, FHU site. Most sites are FHU, but there are about 50 with just W&E on the north and south sides of the park. We had to pull all the way forward in the site to get satellite service but that made the sewer unreachable. Once we are ready to leave in the morning, we will just back up and dump then Most sites are back-ins and apparently seasonal/extended stay sites. There is no cable TV, but there are about 10 over the air channels. We had no problems with their 802.11 network. As others have noted, there are a ton of recreational facilities: a very large pool, a fishing lake with piers and boat dock, a swimming pond with a beach, tennis courts, basketball courts, volleyball courts, horseshoe pits, a large recreation center, playgrounds, a large pavilion, and a mini-golf course. I cannot vouch for the condition of these facilities because of how dark it was when I finally saw them. I had no issues with the man (owner?) at check-in. We had no issues with too many rules (No long list was mentioned when we checked in - what problems are 2 oldies going to cause in the off season?) or dusting roads (It was raining!). This park may deserve a higher rating, but I couldn't see the park well enough or experience the park when it is going full tilt. I do agree with the prior reviewer that staying here would be a completely different experience/park in the summer. I saw no sign of recycling in the park. Once again, we did not "camp here. We stayed here in a RV site. - Jerry S
Oct 2015 - $36.00
We only stayed here as a stopover for one night. I called the morning of our arrival and had no problem getting a site. It is off season, so the pool, beach area and activities were all closed, but during the summer, I think it is a very busy place with a lot if things to do. Looks like a wonderful family place. Laundry room was roomy and very clean. WiFi was good, and local channels were plentiful. We could not get our satellite to work in our spot but since we were here for only one night, it was not a big deal. The sites were concrete and grass, spacious and the park was very clean. Staff were very friendly. Campstore was sparse, but again, it is very late in their season. The only reason I didn't give it a perfect score was the very dusty gravel roads. I imagine in the heat of a dry summer, it is a nightmare. Most people adhered to the 10mph speedlimit, but it still kicked up tons of dust!! Overall, a very nice campground surrounding a nice lake. Would definitely return. - KSAM14

This is a large park, with mostly long term visitors. It is gated. The roads are quite dusty, being gravel, and muddy when it rains. The owner is kind of rude, but check-in staff was friendly. The sites were level, dirt, and tight, mostly back-ins. The park needs a lot of updating and some TLC. The park is located very near the interstate in many spots, so it is quite noisy. There is a private lake for fishing, but you must buy a permit at the office. Some of the permanent RV's and sites are trashy and unkept and need cleaning up. There are pages of rules that you are supposed to abide by, but very few are enforced. There is a laundry on site, but only four washers and dryers for such a large park. They need more. Also there are no trash bins near any of the sites and trash must be carried over to the entrance of the park to be disposed of. We stayed here in a 39-foot fifth wheel, and would NOT stay here again. - Mike1987

We stayed here to attend a convocation in Gary, IN. We have four children and there wasn't much for them to do. The playground was outdated, the one at the conference center was better. The lake was beautiful, but the cost of renting a pontoon ($100/hr with $300 deposit) was steep for us. Nice quiet campground with plenty of space between sites. Shade was wonderful and had a large field open for play. Campers were friendly and children enjoyed riding bikes around the small loop. Campground was small and cozy. The bath house was under construction. Would definitely camp here again. - Loving family of six

Maybe I just happened to pick a bad weekend, but this first visit to this campground was completely miserable. Perhaps had I come to tent camp and never expected to leave the campground the whole weekend, I'd have a different opinion. First the good points-- nice graveled campsites (and all have electric), plenty of shade and privacy between the sites in this heavily wooded campground, fairly clean bathhouse, and a nice lake nearby. If you happen to be a resident of DuPage county, the $20/night rate is not bad either. Sadly, the good points end there. The campground is located at the very back of the park and requires driving over 6 large speed bumps to come and go. The campground roads are narrow gravel with tight turns and hills. Most sites are only suitable for tents, pop-ups, vans, or RVs less than 25'. The only available water is from non-threaded spigot pumps. The dump station is small and tilted the wrong way to empty most RV tanks. The campground is only open 2 or 3-night weekends from May through Sept. But perhaps the biggest negative-- both the campground and forest preserve gates are closed and locked just after sunset every night. If you want to enjoy a nice dinner beyond the park boundaries, or visit friends in the area, forget about it! One final negative-- when I visited, the park was literally overwhelmed with mosquitoes. So bad I had to wear a bug jacket to cover my head and upper body! In the future, I'll stay at the Kane Co. Forest Preserve campgrounds-- much MUCH nicer parks that have been built with RVers in mind. - WinnieViews

This park is a bit hard to locate. It is actually located in Warrenville. Any RV campground in the Chicago is a rarity so even with some drawbacks we were glad to find this one. It is a large, beautiful and heavily-wooded oasis in a pretty congested area. Staff very friendly. Restrooms were immaculate even with heavy usage on a holiday weekend. The drawbacks are: (1) it is only open for Fri. and Sat. night camping except on holidays, (2) no and or sewer connections and the few water spigots will not allow for a hose to be connected so to fill your tank requires carrying water in containers to your RV. Sites are level and very spacious with site #64 being best located for the restrooms with showers. One unusual plus is that those over 65 get 1 free weekend per year. We would camp here again. - judb

We've been visiting Blackwell for almost 40 years, but this is the first time we've camped there. We only live about 7 miles from there so it's an easy weekend. This is an oasis in the middle of suburbia. Heavily wooded sites, with level crushed gravel pads and now, electric at all sites, according to the attendant at the gatehouse. There are no water or sewer hookups, but there are spigots throughout the park. There is an adequate dump station, although it is not all that level, so your tanks may not fully empty. I remarked to my wife that whether we traveled three hours to Wisconsin or drove 7 miles to Blackwell, the end result is the same. Quiet camping in a lovely area. The one downside to this campground is that it's only open on weekends, except for holiday weeks when it's open for the entire week. Also making reservations entails calling the District HQ and booking over the phone. There is a three day reservation window which pretty much eliminates spur of the moment camping. The camping permits arrive by snail mail, so very last century. Still, it adds to the charm I suppose. We'll be back often. In the summer the crowds in Wisconsin can be frustrating, so this is a nice alternative if you just want a quiet weekend to camp without dealing with all the traffic. - baraff

Nice place to be while waiting for new truck brakes. Very friendly. A local couple camping there "took us in". Nice grounds, excellent paved biking/walking trail along the river. Very wooded. Only negative: on a busy truck route. If you want full restroom facilities, camp in season at Pottawatamie. It was already closed for the season when we were there. We were at Chippewa which is further from Bourbonnias and closer to the busy road. The river drive on the west side is scenic and worth the time. Take the Warner Bridge Rd. to get across. - snsfry

Two campgrounds here. If you are in a bigger rig I would suggest the Chippewa campground. It is more open and easier to get in and out of. The Potawatomie campground is where we stayed and the loops are very tight. Heavily wooded on this side though some nice sites and very private. This park also has a great 10 mile paved bike trail. We would return here but stay in the Chippewa campground next time. - janieD

This is mostly a residential park with some residual camping sites and tent sites. There are many lakes in the area, which used to be coal mining pits and strip mines. The campground has a swimming pond and fishing ponds, although recent rains flooded the ponds. The water has a heavy concentration of hydrogen sulfide, probably from previous mining activities, so bring a water filter. Most residents buy their drinking water locally. This is a quiet, gated community and the residents are generally friendly. The park has many local activities. - Dick and Linda

The place is huge. Has pool, lake, tennis, everything. I'm sure it's a happening place in summer but very poorly maintained. Big potholes in the very bad travel roads. Mostly occupied by seasonal and permanent residents that have old decrepit RVs and misc structures. The only WiFi is at the main office. Grass is overgrown and our site was loaded with dog poop. But there is a big field where we threw a ball for the dogs. - User2989

Very run down. This mighta been a great place 35 years ago but it's obvious nothing has been reinvested in it. Way to many long-termers with all the junk that they accumulate if allowed to. Way to many old RVs that should be in the junk yard by now. The trailer next to me has a red tag hanging on the door. Streets are badly neglected. Jellystone Inc should pull any affiliation from this place. Surprised they haven't. We are here at the height of vacation season and took what was available. Otherwise we wouldn't have considered it. They charged $16.00 for electric and $16.00 for service for a four night stay on top of the $38. I requested a sat TV friendly site ahead of time and they accommodated me with that. - wazafarmer

We pulled into this campground if you can call it that, and paid for a two night stay. While my husband was inside paying I just got a bad feeling about this place. It felt like a place you would see in a horror movie. The road into it was narrow and full of holes, a man in a raggedy golf cart led us to an area and told us to "pick a site". We got out if the RV and looked for a site with sewer hook ups. Could not find one with water electric and sewer. The sites were just grassy and muddy. Nothing about this place said "camp here, feel safe". We began to wonder if we were in a junkyard or campground. We decided that neither of us had a good feeling, so we drove back to the office aka shack and got our money back. My husband said it was no problem and they probably had it happen before. My cousin said the place was known for drug raids and murders!!! Stay away from this place unless you like living or staying in an area where your life is in danger. Hideaway should be condemned and buried!!! - CaptainKarl

This place is dirty, looks like a junkyard with abandoned trailers sitting all over the place. The "pond" they say is chlorinated was dirty, fish couldn't live in it, the play ground by the pond was dirty with garbage all over the place. If the city or county ever tested the pond water I am sure that they would shut this place down. We will never stay there again, even if it was free. - Sjmak

First off - you should know that 1 star is as low as this site will allow one to rate an establishment. Secondly, 2000 characters is the max and that's not nearly enough for an accurate picture of this landfill. It is not safe here. It is not sanitary, or even clean. A schizophrenic (not hyperbole) owns the place and has a captive workforce of otherwise homeless ex-cons allowed to live in the trailer graveyard that rings the "park". Over half of the trailers here are no longer mobile. The roads are often impassible by all but a serious 4wd. Do not bring a heavy RV here, nor a trailer of any kind, unless you have an offroad capable truck, and a strong one. In fact, if you value your property and your safety, do not come here at all. Finally, this place is adjacent to an outdoor gun range. Weekends are nonstop gunfire, so you don't know whether it's coming from inside the "park" until the Kendall County Sheriff's Dept. arrives, which is often enough that I know them by name. In short, this place is for those with no choice. It's the only park within an hour of the city that stays open through the winter. Still, if you can conceive of any other option - go with that. I guarantee none of this will seem like a joke when you cross the railroad tracks into Hide-A-Way Lakes. - Marc and Tinker

Simple overnight stay. Arrived late but evening superintendent waited for us and took us directly to a reasonable site. Offered to help with hook-ups etc. They only have 50A service and he offered to get an adapter but I said I could just use the 110 as I didn't want to dig out my adapter. Just wanted to get to bed. Site was level on concrete pad. Would not be my first choice in the area but my normal "Quick Nite stay" in La Porte was full. Would stay again if just needed place to stay.
Would suggest that large trailers or Class=A motorhomes not stay as streets were narrow. It was OK for out 25' Class-C.
Might be reasonable if you were going to Chicago and could take Metro from Gary station 7 mi away. - Tireman9

This is our second time here. We stayed for a week last year, this year we stayed for 3 weeks. The rate reflects a weekly rate and electric is .15 per kwh. We love this place. The staff go out of their way to be helpful and friendly. There is a laundry mat next door and a small market too. This is a mobile home park with a few RV spaces. It is the most relaxing and quiet place we have visited, and we camp 6 months of the year, with in 6 different states. The spaces are grass with cement lanes for the rv tires and a cement pad for personal use. All the sites are very level. All the streets are paved and riding bikes is safe and easy. Each unit has their own garbage can, no walking to the other end of the campground for the dumpster. We had mature shade trees in our section, so TV reception with the antenna was just not there. They also have a new dog park. - esta34950

We stayed here three nights because this was the most convenient park to visit downtown Chicago. It's a mobile home park whose units have been here a long time. There are a handful of RV sites with full hookups with 50 amp. The sites are level with paved strips for your tires and a concrete patio. All else is grass. No cable, wi fi, restrooms or any other amenities. There is a convenience store and laundromat in the strip of stores in front of the park. Park personnel were very helpful in guiding us to our site, helping hook up, and providing area information. Biggest drawback is the high volume of train traffic running right alongside the park. Also, watch out for the unmarked speed bumps. - Ray Z

The clerk led us to our campsite via a golf cart. The site is fairly tight with about 2 feet of space on each end of our 36' motor home and tow. The roads are gravel and fairly narrow, but we were able to navigate easily enough. There is no wifi or cable. We were able to pull in several TV stations using our antenna and we had an adequate Verizon wireless signal (better data signal than voice). There is a very nice and clean dog run. The park is well maintained and clean. There is little road noise as the park is quite a distance from any major roadway. We overnighted here while traveling south on I-57. We would overnight here again. - Dale07

We stayed at this KOA in August as we were visiting friends in the area. The KOA is close to I-55 and is convenient to Chicago (approximately 1-hour north). The Kankakee River State Park is nearby where one can rent horses and go horseback riding on the trails. Entrance/exit to this KOA is tight, so use caution. Interior roads are dirt and the campground workers were working on interior road improvements while we were there. Hopefully the interior roads are better now. The park is small and the sites are rather close together, not all that level, but are long for big-rigs/toads. Amenities offered are fire rings, Wi-Fi, garbage pick-up at site, swimming pool, playground, basketball and volleyball courts, laundry room, propane filling station, restrooms, and game room. Staff at this KOA are awesome! We stayed here for a total of 4-nights in our Class A motorhome. - The Diesel Gypsies

This KOA is located well off the beaten path and was probably the best value KOA we found during this year's travel season. It is an older park, with a mixture of site amenities (Full Hook-up, Water/Electric, "Tent"). Interior gravel roads are a little tight and you have to be careful for trees and limbs. We arrived after a very rainy spell and there were huge puddles and soft spots in the roads near the office, but more gravel was spread while we were there. The sites are simple but reasonably spaced. We were able to (barely) get our large motorhome and towed vehicle into our space without blocking the road. I ended up backing out of our pull-thru for departure, as cars parked in nearby sites made it tough to exit our space. WiFi was essentially unusable but we did get a satellite TV signal through the trees and VZW 4G was reasonably strong. There were quite a few perma-rigs but they appeared to be more seasonal campers as opposed to residents and most were kept up. Things were pretty quiet, although I suspect it may be more lively during weekends and better weather. - RvTravelerNTechie

Along the shores of Lake Michigan, just east of Gary, lies Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore. Hugging 15 miles of shoreline, this National Park Service (NPS) property has a state park located in the middle which offers camping. Like most Indiana state parks, there is no water provided at the sites but fill stations are near the check-in. Campsites on the outside of the loops are shady and a bit more private. - Flying Mantis

Stayed here midweek as weekends are completely full and hard to get in. Very nice long sites 70 ft. or so. Found a site that was really level and good for satellite reception. Nice wooded area with plenty of space in between other sites. 50 amp. electrical with water located in park to fill your tank. Also a sewer dump but no other hookups. We also had to pay a $12 gate fee non resident but it was worth it to have access to beach area at Lake Michigan. NO ALCOHOL allowed in park. Must have problems with that around here. We kept our alcohol in our coach. - signaloil

Great Park. Heavly wooded around the permeter of the CG with scattered trees in the CG. There is a $12 one time park fee in addition. Concrete pad back-in site with room to park your tow. Electric only. No wi-fi or cable and no antenna TV reception. Possible satallite reception if you have a spot without tree blockage. Spaceous sites are grassy with a picnic table and fire pit. No other amenities. Close to the train station, about 5 minutes, to take you into Chicago. About 1 1/2 hours to downtown and about 1 hour to the Museum of Science & Industry - a must see. Also minutes from the beach on Lake Micigan. - Michael Kibler

Previous reviews are still spot on. This is a good park for families with kids under 12. Almost all activities are aimed at young kids and there's plenty for them to do. However, the park is expensive as they have to pay a larger staff, plus you pay extra for pets and extra cars, both of which irritate me. Arcade games, pool tables, lunch with Yogi, and some crafts are pay for use too. The park is staffed by local youth who do a good job running all the activities. I only saw one older adult behind the registration desk. Bathrooms needed cleaning. Sites are mostly back-ins among the trees with no satellite reception and no cable TV. Ours had a broken sewer connection and some had no sewer caps. Several sites are big rig compatible, but some trees need trimming and brush the top of tall rigs. The camp generally needed refreshing. If you don't have kids and are just looking for a quiet campsite, I rate this camp a 3 as it's way too expensive if you aren't using the activities. Wristband system is annoying as they fall off in the pool. We'd only stay here again if our young grandkids were with us. - Danno

Lots of amenities - like games & pool and all that stuff. No cable, about 5 channels over the air. Sloooooow internet with limited bandwidth and all this for $59. What a deal. My own bad, we got lost with the help of our GPS and picked a park off the screen because we were tired. Must do better homework next time. This may be a good destination for some, but for the tired traveller? No way. - Tiny Beast

Campground had volleyball court, jumpshot, fun cycles, jumping pillow, playground, and a pond with inflatables. They charged $15/kid for the weekend for the use of the jumpshot, jumping pillow, fun cycles, and inflatables. The camp store had some hot food and soft serve ice cream, along with miscellaneous food items, candy, pop, etc. They had a glow in the dark parade on Saturday, which the kids loved. There were a lot of kids around during the day, but it was pretty quiet at night. The seasonals were newer trailers, and were toward the back of the campground. Some of the seasonals were all gravel instead of grass, but maybe that's less maintenance? There weren't a lot of golf carts, which was nice. If the wind shifted, you got a whiff of cow manure, but there are a lot of farms in the area. There was also the occasional train whistle. The owner and staff were very friendly. We will be back. - chgo_spartan

Wi-Fi worked well, as did our Verizon and T-Mobile devices. Good interior roads, level sites, many seasonal campers. This place is so serene - we hated to leave. - Ray Waugh

Our site was strewn with garbage to the point that it resembled an inner city vacant lot. One of the wooden beams from the fence around the site was scorched and sitting in the grass nearby. The closest bathroom, in the gameroom, was a mess, the toilet clogged and filthy, despite the presence of a young employee sitting a few feet away watching a DVD. The seasonal residents who appear to make up the overwhelming majority of the customers constantly ride by in golf carts. While I was sitting there pondering whether to spend a half-hour cleaning up the trash on the site, a cart loaded with about six unsupervised youths nearly crashed down the path right next to the site. At that point I had seen enough. One of the greatest joys of my just-finished vacation was putting this dump in my rear-view mirror. I only wish there had been a review on this site to steer me away beforehand. Consider yourself warned: This is not a good campground. - Family of four

Would have been a 10 if they had sewer hook-ups. This is a campground, as opposed to an RV Park. Very few amenities, but a nice quiet spot on the prairie with miles of walking and biking paths in the adjacent forest preserve.
Large campsites well spaced. Well laid out. As noted before the water connections are a bit far from the spaces, need a couple extra length of hose, but not a big issue as you have to move to dump your tanks anyway, so fill the fresh water tank when you do.
Limit on stay of 14 days out of every 21 days. Campground is part of Kane County Forest Preserve.
A bit far from the interstates for an overnight stop, but convenient to US 30. Since the campground is only a few years old the trees are all small saplings, no shade whatsoever! Will be better in a few years.
Fairly convenient to Aurora where you can catch the train into Chicago. Handicap sites are paved versus gravel. All sites are nice sized, the pull through are quite long. - Dennis M

We are local who use this spot to get out of the Chicago area hustle and bustle. Lovely area with lots of open fields and trees. Close to a railroad track but not overly noisy. Just a few years old. We wish other counties in the area would copy this park. They do not have showers, saying the insurance liability is too great. We would give it a 10 if it did. - travelboundnbertha

Stopped here for a night. It is about 3 miles off the interstate driving through a neighborhood and cornfields. The turn into the campground is a bit tight for a big rig. The sign is old and advertised a religious camp. The office is sparse, only a desk and a few things for sale. The person in the office was Asian and did not speak much English. He did not ask how big our rig was, just said he had water and electric available. We told him we were over 40ft with our tow vehicle so he gave us a grass site with water and electric. The site was only 20 amp so we asked for another which was 30amp. The electric quit working after about an hour and the office was closed, so we had no power which was hard on our dog. The restrooms were ok. We would not stay here again. - mohocamper

This campground is much improved this year. Totally new rest rooms and showers that are very nice. They are tiled. They just needed to be cleaned more often.

Okay if you want dry camping this is your campground. No hook-ups. There are only a few sites that can accomodate a large rig. 40' would be about the longest you could do. We have a 38' with a tow. Our site was nice and well spaced out. Bugs were bad. We stayed over the weekend and everal families brought barking dogs. Camp security was there and did kick some people out for noise, drinking, etc. Our stay was good and we enjoyed trying out our solar and being self-contained for awhile. - RVing Along

Dump station and fresh water available. Open late April to late October. Our third time here. Only drawback is moderate train/traffic noise. We love it!

Overall we liked this campground. It has a lot to do for families. There is a nice pool, small swimming pond, a river to fish or canoe and a couple of playgrounds with sturdy equipment. We also liked how wooded the campground was. For tent campers I thought the sites were great. They offered a lot of privacy and there we sites for large groups and small groups. However, for us (in a 25' trailer) it was difficult to park and get around in the campground. The sites are somewhat elevated from the road and I needed to get a running start to get the trailer up over the bump. We also had to ask our neighbors to move their cars so that we could get out when we were leaving. The wood we got was oak but very wet. We gave up trying to get it started the first night (it started after we went to bed). Even though it is a tight fit for us we would definitely go back. The pool, the activities (horseshoe tournament, corn boil, etc.) and the playgrounds all made for a pretty nice family atmosphere. - dckunkle

This park is relatively new, so if you're looking for shade trees it might not be good for you. There are however, new trees planted at every site that do offer a bit of shade. The sites are w-i-d-e at an angle so backing in and getting out is a piece of cake. This park is huge and laid out very very well. Its at a fairgrounds, so its pretty basic. Each site has 30 & 50 amp service along with water. There is a easy in and easy out dump station. There are no picnic tables or fire rings. Our site faced east, so the shade tree was right outside our front door. That allowed our satellite dish to get perfect reception to the southwest. It was mid-October so there was only one other RV in the whole complex. We were on our way home to Northern IL from a fall foliage trip around Lake Michigan that started in Southern WI, so this was perfect for a one night stay. We would definitely stay here again. - therealSimpsons

Nice level grass sites on the edge of the fairgrounds. Trees are small so shade is not available. However, I felt this park had a great feel. The park manager is a great guy who is laid back but keeps the park in great shape. 50 amp service, water and a dump station for the price is a bargain.

Our rate for the month of June is $500 which includes electric. However we have found some people are charged less. We stayed here because of family in Montgomery, IL. which is close by.

Stayed here in May 2016 at the beginning of the camping season. It's a nice little RV campground right where you wouldn't expect one. The people from Kane Country running the campground are very, very nice. The campground is in the middle of a forest preserve, although most of the camp sites are asphalt slabs with no trees around them. None of the sites have sewer hook-up but there are two dump stations, and they are free to use if you're a registered camper. The sites did have 50amp and 30amp service, along with a water hook-up. The price for camping is cheap- $25 if you're a Kane County, IL, non-resident, $15 if you are.
There are several walking trails in the preserve. The big one is gravel and about 2.5 miles around the loop. We saw deer, otters, and hawks while walking the trail, which took about an hour. There are some smaller walking trails that meander through the prairies and woods.
I'd highly recommend coming, but if you have kids just understand that this isn't a KOA. There's no pool, no activities, or anything like that. It's just a place to hook up your RV and enjoy the preserve.
Although I gave value, service, and cleanliness 5 stars, I gave the campground an overall rating of 8 stars only because outside of the walking trails, there wasn't much to do, and the RV sites were sort of close together with no trees to screen you from your neighbors. Also, the fishing pond was pretty weed infested and we didn't see or catch any fish. - ualdriver

Loved the park. Wide open, lots of space between the sites and asphalt pads. Work campers very friendly. GC very neat and clean. Only complaint is the water. It is full of iron and very metallic tasting. We recommend you have a very good filter for your water or fill your water tank before you go and don't use their water. - Peter K

We love this park. The sites are large & level-all asphalted. It is quiet & peaceful here. Satellite & over the air signal are easy to get. It is about the only campground in the area. The closest other campground is about 30 miles from Elgin. We lived in the Elgin area for 50 years & staying here makes it easy to visit friends & family. There are two drawbacks. There is no sewer hook up so we have to move to dump when our tanks are full. Your stay is limited to 14 days in a 21 day period. We stay here every summer. - Connie's Co-Owner

If you are looking for a quiet place to stay DO NOT reserve this park. Sites are very tight and park is 90 percent permanent residences. Many good rules just not enforced. E.g., visitors must park at office and get a pass.I counted at one point in time 10 cars parked in the 2 spots next to us. Also 11 PM weekend quiet hour, yet the party lasted until 4:10am! A 10- or 11-year-old parked a golf cart across from us and blasted his voice over a bull horn for 10 minutes around 8 PM with 10 adults partying and ignoring him. We have stayed all over the U.S. and this is my first negative review. This is hands down the worst park we have stayed in, especially for the price. Only one dumpster in the whole park. I would give is a zero if that was an option. - John3508

We had called this park twice before arriving, and had not received a call back. We went anyway. Roads throughout the park were bumpy, muddy, full of potholes. There were many permanent residents in broken down, trash strewn places that should have been bulldozed. Crowded, non-level, barely paved sites obscured by fallen leaves. I saw a Pitbull, off leash, and mentioned it to the owner. I saw things happening that led me to believe that "anything goes" and if there are any rules in place, they are certainly not enforced. We drove through the park a couple of times, with the owner and another fellow. I feared for the safety of our rig and our small dog. Luckily we found another place to stay and left. - mrsweeble

The campground was very poorly maintained with very rough and pot holed roads, the roads were very dusty and heavily traveled with speeding golf carts and off road ATV type vehicles, woke up the next morning with 1/8" of dust on RV and truck. Fire works all evening until they either ran out or got tired of them. the sites were very close, for what should have been maybe 3 sites they had 6 if there had been a camper beside us we could not have put out our awning. There appeared to be no rules; when asked another camper said others have been told if you don't like it leave. Well I will not be back. Keep on looking. do not stop here. - Chief Dave

The "guard house" was abandoned, the roads almost impossible, the site electric threatened electrocution, the water stank, and we didn't feel safe leaving the coach for an excursion. Very rough people as "greeters", no site map, and we feared for our safety -slept with the pistol loaded right next to my head. - Frances and Sparky

Was just staying the night. Camped near entrance gate as I didn't feel like spending the time to drive back to regular camping area. (Long day, 427 miles.) This was my choice as staff offered the regular lots for me to use. Staff was friendly. Had water & electric. Wi-Fi never worked where I was located. Looked like the router I was connected to needed to be re-booted to the Internet. If Wi-Fi worked and maybe if I had seen rest of campground I would feel comfortable with a 7 or 8 rating. Would stay again and would probably go to regular camping area. - Tireman9

Park was generally clean but the "comfort station" was old and in need of updating. Showers were hot but cost $.25 for 7 1/2 minutes. More than enough time for a shower. Sunday night other campers were loud late but ceased around midnight. Last part of the season, so no big deal. We would stay here again. - Camping Hoosier

This is a nice campground. The owners have a lot of attention to detail and quickly responded to, and solved, a sewer drain problem (was clogged by previous campers). My "8" rating is based on a few minor criticisms, some of which are out of the campground's control.
Getting into the lot was very difficult, requiring a lot of back and forth movement, due to the tight spacing of the lots. Fortunately, the owner recognizes that and personally aids the campers in backing into the spaces. However, prior to departure, I asked the neighbors to move their vehicles so we could leave without disturbing them early in the morning.
Use of the lake/pond is included in the camping fees, but the water visibility was probably no more than 6 inches. The owner claimed the water tests all come back excellent and that the visibility is likely due to sediment as it is supposedly clear in the mornings. The lake/pond was very busy when we were there, so the sediment may have been the issue, but it was the worst I have ever seen in a lake/pond.
Use of the pool (which was very clean), costs $1 per person per day. I suspect they charge that in order to limit the number of persons using the pool as it is not very big and, after looking at the lake, many people may prefer the pool. Since the rate on the campsite was reasonable, the extra charge for the pool wasn't necessarily that bad, but I hate feeling like I am "nickle and dimed" when I go to a campground, so that fee was a bit of a turnoff for me. I would prefer they raise their rate slightly and have the pool use included.
The Miniature Golf was fun, but it also requires an extra fee. As above, I would prefer to not have to pay extra for the amenities, but I suppose if someone were only going to camp overnight and not use them, then that allows them to stay less expensively.
I would consider staying here again if I were in the area. I commend the owners for their hard work and attention to guest safety and comfort. - JB in Indy

Beach was nice. Outside of that everything had issues, like not enough bathrooms; after 10am most were backed up. Our son had to drive 10 minutes away to a gas station to use their facilities. We were charged to use our air conditioner, but our site only had a 20 amp connection. Even with an adapter we did not have the current to run the AC, but we were charged. Site was very difficult to access; owner admitted he never put a pop-up on the site. The site was for primitive camping, but again overcharged. Plus, issues like charges to use showers, pool made this park very costly. We also rented two cabins and the owner made refunding security deposit very difficult stating "well, the fire pits were dirty". The cabins were infested with spiders, making most of our group refusing to use the cabins. We will never return. - Bob & laurel

Women's & Gender Studies Program
Women's and Gender studies is an interdisciplinary field of study which takes gender as its central category of analysis. It focuses on the social construction of gender identity, gender relations, and gender systems, and explores the intersections of gender with other categories of identity. The primary objectives of women's and gender studies are:
- to integrate knowledge about women and gender into the scholarship of various disciplines and professions across the university by promoting student engagement with feminist discourses and practices;
- to understand that gender is foundational to the functioning of social, cultural, economic, and aesthetic systems;
- to understand that gender always intersects with multiple and complex categories of identity, including race, ethnicity, class, sexuality, and nationality;
- to understand representations and realities of gender in local, national, and global contexts;
- to promote social justice and gender equality by creating connections between the classroom and the community.

Seahawks coach Pete Carroll admits he made a mistake by going for a touchdown instead of kicking a field goal at the end of the first half Sunday against the Chargers. It's part of what the team calls "Tell The Truth Monday."
RENTON — The confidence stemmed from Pete Carroll's experience coaching college football.
The lesson Sunday, however, was more elementary.
Thou shalt not waste scoring opportunities. Not in the NFL. No matter how good you feel about the quarterback draw that's called on third-and-one at the opponent's 2-yard line, you can't call that play in that situation. At least not when you don't have a timeout to make sure you can attempt a field goal if the quarterback doesn't score.
"I got a little bold about our situation," Carroll said. "We need to take care of business better. I need to do a better job, and make sure that we get our points when we get our opportunities."

Seattle still won the game, beating the Chargers 27-20. That downgraded it from a critical problem to a growing pain.
To review, Seattle had the ball at the San Diego 2 with 19 seconds left in the second quarter. The Seahawks ran Matt Hasselbeck, who was tackled at the 1. Seattle tried to shuttle its field-goal unit onto the field to attempt a kick, only to have time expire before the ball was snapped.
It was aggressive. In hindsight, it was too aggressive.
"I like the thought … we stuff it at 'em and knock it in the end zone and get a touchdown right there," Carroll said. "But we really, in that instance, we'd like to have had a fourth-down opportunity, too, and that eliminated it."
That honest assessment is part of the weekly schedule for the Seahawks, who have a name for every day of the week, whether it's "Competition Wednesday" or "Turnover Thursday."
But it all starts with "Tell the Truth Monday."
"It's a good way to go," Hasselbeck said. "You usually get to fix the real problems when you call it like you see it."
Carroll said his success at USC emboldened him at the end of the first half. The Trojans' edge in talent was sometimes prohibitive, and if a gamble didn't pay off, it wouldn't be long before Carroll's team had another chance.
"We scored so many times and we were successful in situations when we were bold so much that you get accustomed to it," Carroll said.
Seattle had options. The Seahawks could have thrown the ball into the end zone. A completion would have produced a touchdown; an incompletion would have stopped the clock.
But one thing Carroll decided the Seahawks couldn't do was wait for the officials to decide if Hasselbeck gained a first down on the draw. That would have allowed the Seahawks to spike the ball and stop the clock and then bring on the field-goal unit, but Carroll said there was no way to know if Seattle had earned the first down.
"We weren't going to be able to find out if he was short," Carroll said. "Because they might not have stopped the clock in time to measure it."
Could the Seahawks have asked for a measurement?
"You can, but you don't know if they're going to stop the clock in time," Carroll said. "We weren't going to take the chance on it."
Instead, the Seahawks tried to hustle out for a field-goal attempt, but wound up kicking themselves after failing to score.
Injury update
• Rookie Russell Okung is expected to practice this week for the first time since suffering a high ankle sprain on Aug. 21 in Seattle's second exhibition game. Whether Okung starts at left tackle in St. Louis on Sunday will depend on how he practices this week.
• Four Seahawks starters suffered injuries in Sunday's game: DT Brandon Mebane (calf), CB Marcus Trufant (ankle), WR Mike Williams (shoulder) and LB Aaron Curry (shoulder). None has been ruled out for this week. Williams returned to the game after a first-half shoulder injury, but was very sore. Curry suffered a cramp that wouldn't loosen and indicated he expects to be OK.

"City by the Sea" Al Mukalla by flynboxes
Al Mukalla Travel Guide: 28 reviews and 45 photos
I went here prior to heading into Wadi Hadramawt which in hindsight I would have done just the opposite in order to unwind from the valley.
In Feburary this place was perfect. Weather was in the low 80's (sorry I'm a damm Yank) and the water was close to that which made it a great place to kick off my shoes, put on a mask and jump in the water.

Still betting on Tunica
The Tunica Convention and Visitor's Bureau and Tunica County Chamber of Commerce hosted a celebration of 20 years of gaming and tourism in Tunica on Thursday, Oct. 18, at Bluesville at the Horseshoe Casino. The event highlighted the economic progress Tunica and Tunica County has made throughout the last 20 years.
Since gaming was legalized in Mississippi in 1992, Tunica has grown from one of the poorest counties in the U.S. to a major contributor of tax dollars to the state. Gaming in Tunica County has generated $704 million in local tax revenue and 15,000 jobs.

The Parthenon
Cole, Karl, School Arts
Balance, symmetry, and order formed the canon of art in ancient Greece. The ancient Greeks believed that such elements were inherent in nature. The Greeks loved learning, debate, and physical beauty, and believed that these were reflections of knowledge of the divine.
The Parthenon was the temple dedicated to the goddess Athena, the patron god of Athens, and the god of wisdom. It is an example of the high point in the development of the Greek temple form. Greek temple design had evolved over the centuries out of the megaron of a Mycenaean (pre-Classic Greek culture; flourished c. 1500-1100 BC) house. The megaron was a rectangular hall with a frontal porch supported on columns or piers. The typical Greek temple plan had evolved by the seventh century BC.
The Parthenon sits on the Acropolis in Athens. Most Greek cities had an acropolis (meaning "high city" in Greek). It was usually a rise on which the city's most important temples were built. The Acropolis in Athens was the site of the legendary battle between Athena and Poseidon for possession of Athens as its protector. …

Mummies and Martyrs
Osmond, Stephen J., The World and I
Walking among the dead, laughter subsides and chatter fades away. Each corpse's last motion in the grave has been the same, its mouth dropped open in a silent, petrified scream. In this narrow, darkened hallway we look through soiled glass onto the careless indignity of death, feel its cold fingers flutter mockingly about our shoulders, and think: We come to this?
The Museo de los Momias in Guanajuato claims to be Mexico's second most popular museum, bested only by the magnificent anthropological museum in Mexico City. The two places could not be more different. Here there is no architectural splendor, no artistic magnificence, no celebration of the past. Here there is only a small and dusty facade, windowless hallways, and a cramped room or two lined with display cases. It is a quiet and disturbing reminder of a future we all face but know so little of. Thousands visit every year.
The bodies on display are the mummified remains of poor people taken from the cemetery once located in land adjoining what is now the museum. These folks died during the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries and were entombed in nearby crypts. People paid for their burial plots, but only the wealthy could afford permanent graves. The government levied an annual "tax" or fee for the site's upkeep on descendants or relatives. So, typically, bodies would be removed from their resting place and burned after a few years.
Around 1854, much of the cemetery was cleared. It was discovered, or at least someone thought to notice, that the corpses had been mummified and preserved. It is presumed that this is a result of the unique local characteristics of heat and aridity, but no authoritative scientific explanation of the phenomenon has ever been offered. In all more than 120 bodies were collected, and it was decided to exhibit, rather than burn, the corpses. Since that decision was made, los momias have gained international renown: A few years ago they even toured Japan.
Horrors and humors
The museum is located in a corner of a small square, high among the faintly scruffy, pastel-colored blocks of a hillside barrio. We join cheerful Mexican families and some gangly, vaguely distracted American tourists who look like hippie wanna-bes, and shuffle through the switchback line to buy tickets. Children giggle in titillated expectation of the horrors they envision, and men swagger and joke a little loudly to show their unconcern. Finally we enter.
The corridor seems to burrow into the hillside itself. The mummies lie on shelves in glass cabinets, strangely vulnerable as we intrude on their privacy. Most are naked, their wrinkled gray-brown skin stretched across withered limbs. Some have wisps of hair, features, faint signs of the person that once was. They are familiar yet scarcely seem human. Everyone who passes falls into silent reverie. A child's fingers press the glass as she pulls back in wide-eyed fascination. A swarthy, stocky man in blue-checked shirt and cowboy hat, gruffly jocular a moment ago, retreats to the far wall in wary contemplation. A gringo snaps photos.
The smallest mummy is of a child, stillborn when its mother died. The tiny baby, mouth and eyes wide and vacant in the surprise of death, draws a crowd of kids and moms who point and whisper at the tragedy. There are quite a few dead children on display, but perhaps the most startling exhibit of all is in a nearby glass case. A female mummy, its body twisted in agony, stands with hands clasped and raised as if in desperate prayer. It seems to be the remains of someone buried alive, by mistake--perhaps victim of an epileptic fit or coma mistaken for death--who awoke trapped in the horror of the grave.
Leaving the museum and stepping back into the hot sunlight, I am immediately met by vendors proffering enormous candy suckers--replicas of the mummies-wrapped in clear cellophane. I refuse. The thought of munching on such a thing is ghoulish enough, but they also look sugary enough to give an elephant a heart attack. …

I 've got same problem. i think it's a little bit dangerous for administrators
Is there a solution?
i had made a to-do note to deactivate plugin. no one on forum / author was responding. grateful someone else agrees. i will hold off a bit longer to see if there is more info.
No, there is not a solution. This is the way WordPress does it for everything. It is used for author pages, and for anything that needs a unique user identificator.
This is like most big sites on Internet. Your username is used in a public manner because is the only information which cannot be changed and we need to work over something that never will change.
It's not only WordPress. Many big sites expose your user name: a couple of examples are Google and Microsoft where your login ID is your public email address. Another example is OpenID, where your login ID is your site URL.
So, it is not dangerous if you have a secure well-formed password.
Of course, you can report a feature request to the tracker: http://tracker.alkivia.org suggesting some kind of solution to your issue. We will have it into consideration.
Txanny, thanks for clearing things up. Your support forum is excellent btw. WordPress is very security conscious, and one of their tips is to hide ( maybe i'm assuming too much - WP suggests getting rid of the default " admin " ) the user name. Maybe a WP work-around or tip will happen.
If read on the developers list something about this. By now them would not change this behavior.
I tested to change it to something else, but then you have to fight against duplicates, and some WP functions don't work as expected (Like linking authors with profiles, and some other features that rely on the WP username).
Tested also using the display name with some success, but when a user changes the display name, also his url changes. This makes search engines like Google to receive 404 errors (Not Found), and the site lose position on it. Another problem doing this way, more important, is to use a non-indexed name, with large sites with many users, this makes it to slow down.
This topic has been closed to new replies.

I mean i am executing a method that consumes CPU heavily (actually it will zip a large text file) .
So, after that method i want current thread to sleep for few minutes before calling the method again to archive another file. I am doing this so that other programs can also run smoothly.sjhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-8712770457197348465.post-54027595794854944572013-06-14T01:16:54.951-07:002013-06-14T01:16:54.951-07:00i got confused in wait and sleep..please clarify m...i got confused in wait and sleep..please clarify more..firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-8712770457197348465.post-82320495408112178862013-04-16T20:21:56.094-07:002013-04-16T20:21:56.094-07:00A thread can be in WAITING or TIMED_WAITING state,...A thread can be in WAITING or TIMED_WAITING state, due to a call to wait() or sleep() method.

so awsome!! <33 i wish there was a way to downsize these, since i dont stitch on fabric or anything and do it on the plastic canvas
awesome job.
Love Mokona!! Going to have to do this one eventually for myself I think since I tend to make cross stitches for other people.
Awesome, I can't wait to see! Everyone should stitch something for themselves. I made myself a coaster
so cute! if you ever had time you should do a pattern with both the black and white mokonas! and their little earrings!
That would be cool!
yeah, i would love to stitch, but not for a couple of years, cause thats how long my current project will take!
that would be so cute! *-*
thanks for uploading this!
