My mother loves Peeps. And cheap white cake. And candy corn. Which is ironic because she is a dental hygienist. Her sweet tooth goes into overdrive during the Spring when she dives into her stash of Chocolate-Peanut Butter Eggs with abandon. But those over-the-counter eggs could just be so much better with a few tweaks, so I made her these homemade Chocolate-Almond Butter Eggs.
Because Easter is just a few days away, I decided to pull out these snazzy mini egg molds and decorated Easter egg molds that I found online, but these taste just as wonderfully when made in mini cupcake tins so don't feel the need to go out of your way. While you could temper the chocolate if you wanted them to "not melt in your hand" and were looking for serious fancy-time, chocolatier-worthy chocolate, I find that they get eaten so quickly, that melting isn't really a problem.
stir as needed to incorporate oil (feel free to use your favorite nut butter instead)
or maple syrup
or vanilla bean paste
Combine graham cracker crumbs or almond meal, powdered sugar, nut butter, honey or Maple syrup, vanilla, and sea salt in a stand mixer fit with a paddle attachment or in a large bowl. Mix on medium speed with a stand mixer or a handheld mixer until filling is well combined, breaks into large chunks, and resembles cookie dough.
Divide filling into 24 (1-teaspoon) balls or larger as needed to fit your chocolate candy molds or mini muffin pans, then form into round, flat egg shapes if putting in the candy molds or discs if putting in the muffin tins. Set aside. Meanwhile, break up the chocolate, place in a stainless steep or glass bowl and nest overa pot of simmering water (make sure the bowl doesn't touch the water) and stir until chocolate is melted and smooth.
When the filling is in the wells, there should be enough room to cover it with chocolate.
Using a small pastry brush, paint the chocolate inside each well of the muffin pan or the candy molds. Do your best to make your coating as even as possible, aiming for about 1/16-inch thick. Place the chocolate in the fridge until its just set.
Place fillings in the mini muffin wells or candy molds but dont push too hard or youll crack the coating. Spoon more chocolate over each filling until completely covered. Scrape across the top of the pan with a pastry knife or a flat spatula to remove excess chocolate and even out candy tops.
Place the molds in the freezer for 15 to 20 minutes to set up. To remove candies, place a towel or a silicone baking mat on a counter and hit one edge of the muffin pan against the counter. Let come to room temperature before serving.

Great seats and high energy; perfect for family and children. We had a picnic on the Wolftrap lawn beforehand and it was perfect

I took my daughter to this event last night and she had a blast. The rating is actually from my daughter who is 9 yrs old. For me, I would rate is as a 3-star only because I have not watched the movie and I am unfamiliar with the songs.

Loved it and thank you. Great seats.
Will young love triumph over high school cliques? Find out during the performances of this smash-hit musical. Based on the original television movie phenomenon, the show includes all the songs from the best-selling soundtrack and an electrifying band, live on stage.
This Emmy Award-winning musical takes the classic tale of Romeo & Juliet and updates it with a modern spin. In addition to the timeless theme of love against the odds, the characters are faced with contemporary struggles of high school teens today: peer pressure, rivalries, friendships, and finding yourself.
At the center of the story are Troy Bolton, captain of the basketball team on the verge of a championship, and Gabriella Montez, a science brainiac who just transferred to the school. Both students struggle against conforming to their prescribed social cliques and decide to audition for the school play together. The seemingly innocent act sends ripples of change throughout East High as students from different social groups break their own status quos to pursue individual interests.
High School Musical has garnered worldwide praise and numerous awards, including Billboard's Soundtrack Album of the Year (2006), as well as two equally popular sequels. The stage production at Wolf Trap features all the favorite characters and songs, with two brand new numbers and an electrifying live band.

Pointless DLC that just adds superficial crap is fine, I won't buy it but I have no problem with it. DLC for small, self-contained stuff (like new missions or characters) is bogus; that stuff should be in the game at launch and I shouldn't have to pay extra for it. Full-on expansions that overhaul the game in some large way are fine and I'm willing to pay up to $20 if it's done well.

AbstractThe objective of the proposed MDA Phase II program is to develop the capabilities to manufacture next-generation radio frequency (RF) and microwave device components relevant to the design of a phased array antenna system onto flexible and easily formablesubstrates using low-cost inkjet print self assembly methods. A rapid and continuous fabrication approach, inkjet self assembly printing will benefit the MDA by providing improvement in the time, flexibility, and cost of fabricating prototype testelements as well as complete deliverable systems, which are of primary importance for both military and commercial applications. In particular, this nanotechnology fabrication approach would serve as an advantageous replacement to conventional productionprocesses used to pattern low-profile microstrip/stripline device components on both flexible and semi-rigid substrates. During the Phase II program, NanoSonic would work with a major U.S. defense contractor to design, fabricate, and characterize theelectromagnetic performance of the inkjet printed deliverable prototypes. NanoSonic will continue cooperation with that U.S. defense contractor during Phase III to scale-up the inkjet print process manufacturing of large-scale device products.

Cheeky Umbrellas Review
Vancouver has lately been hit with a bunch of freak storms with lots of rain which is no fun! However my pain at having to trek around in the rain disappeared instantly when I realized that I could finally use my new Cheeky Umbrella!
Cheeky Umbrellas are the brainchild of Jen Zurowski who before she moved to Vancouver BC never even owned an umbrella!!! It must have been a huge shock for her when she moved because as a born and bred Vancouverite even I'm not used to all the rain we get! After she searched high and low for an umbrella that was sturdy and strong while still reflecting her style and personality, she came up with Cheeky Umbrellas!
Cheeky Umbrella manufactures rain umbrellas for women and children that are designed to brighten rainy days. Each umbrella has: a stylish design to make you look and feel good, a sassy statement to bring a smile to your face, and strength to keep you dry and protected. Cheeky Umbrella's products are based on a belief in embracing and enjoying the rain!
Cheeky Umbrella's children line is so adorable because they offer such sassy sayings as 'If you can read this, I'm not muddy enough'; 'Warning: I splash'; and 'Rain or shine, I'm still cute'. But more importantly the umbrellas also encompass safety as well as style, coming in light-coloured fabric with reflective trim making little ones more high visable on grey days.
Cheeky Umbrella also has an amazing warranty attatched to their umbrellas because they truly believe in their product. So much in fact that they believe that with proper care your Long, Bridal, Golf and/or Kids' Cheeky umbrella can provide a lifetime of rain protection, and as a result, these umbrellas carry a Limited Lifetime Warranty that covers defects in materials and workmanship. The warranty does not cover regular wear and tear, improper use, or improper care.
My Review:
I go through umbrellas like nobody's business! When you live in an area where it rains more than there is sun you really do need an umbrella! And I'm so used to crap umbrellas that at a hint of wind fold over in defeat. That is why I was so thrilled to be able to review a Cheeky Umbrella of my own!
The shipping was so quick and the umbrella came in a large box so that it would be nicely protected. I was so excited when I received it because I chose the Long Umbrella Rain Delayed Umbrella which cheekily says: "I'm not late, I'm rain delayed!" The umbrella features a cute flower design on a classic black umbrella with a bright and cheery blue interior that has the cheeky saying. I love how the handles are easy on the hands and just how strong the umbrella feels! You can actually feel it when you open up the umbrella!
The quality is truly amazing on this umbrella! I'm so used to getting cheapo umbrellas that do not hold up at all and when the wind comes are totally unreliable! I realize that I have spent a small fortune when it comes to umbrellas and now I am trying to revise my spending habits by purchasing items that may be a bit more pricier but will last longer and has better quality! And I'm so glad that I can rest easy knowing that there is a great warranty protecting my umbrella!
Click here to purchase your very own Cheeky Umbrella or look out for a giveaway sponsored by the lovely Jen soon!

Whilst escaping from Chez Rendell this morning, I espied what I thought was the end of a TV commercial put out by the wireless phone industry through its trade group CTIA. And then, as I drove to campus, it entered my mind that the Gulf oil spill calamity, for all its calamitousness, has created a window of advertising opportunity. A chance to influence the way people think about the environment, and the country, and which virtues are important.

I'm convinced that technology will provide the bridge between learning theory and teaching practice in higher ed. The gap between what we know and what we can actually accomplish is always large. For instance, we know that the best learning takes place in a seminar setting, with students and teachers sitting around a table and constructing knowledge through conversation, dialogue, and opportunities for active learning. The problem is that the resources do not exist to turn every class into a seminar, as the seminar method does not scale. Instead, we have lecture courses.
June 7, 2010 - 8:57pm
I've been consumed by news stories lately, one local—within the community of "mother bloggers" — and one national. The local, a story of a child's death; the national, the Gulf Coast oil spill. They have little in common except the way they make me feel: impotent, enraged, worried. Impotent, because it seems there's so little I can do to change the way things are. Enraged, because the stories both suggest miscarriages of justice.

'"The idea of a "senior learning technologist" telling faculty that their syllabi should be made freely available is laughable."--Posted by DrRingDing on June 3, 2010 at 11:30am EDT in a comment to my blog.
June 6, 2010 - 6:15pm
Ann Larson's recent IHE column, in which she dissects the popular idea that that a college education is the key to upward mobility for lower-income Americans, resonated for me in a personal way, because I have two nephews who joined the military after they ran out of money for college tuition. One, in the National Guard, spent a year in Iraq and could be called up again. The other will have shipped out to Afghanistan when this column is posted.

In addition to having a long weekend, Memorial Day should be appreciated for its original meaning. And during the actual day or during the weekend, we should all make time to remember, reflect and honor those who gave their lives to protect our country and our quality of life.
June 4, 2010 - 2:21am
My sons and I didn't drive three hours south over Memorial Day weekend to score candy; we went to see friends in my hometown, visit the graveyard, attend an Italian heritage festival, and watch the parade, which was basic but authentic: A VFW color guard, dignitaries in Chryslers, local marching bands and a pom-pom squad, students from a dance academy, a howl of fire trucks, Shriners in tiny waxed cars, a giant American flag borne by a platoon of citizens, men walking Harleys like hobbyhorses while pouring on the throttle, and the mascots for a minor-league baseball team—a muscled-up miner

June 3, 2010 - 9:16pm
I have written in this column before about the concept of "opportunity cost." This topic from economics says that every choice involves a cost, that when we choose to do one thing, we automatically choose not to do something else. When I think of the sacrifices my parents made so that my sister and I could obtain college educations, I realize that there were many opportunity costs to the decisions they made.

Emmanuel sells sacks of charcoal in his area located in the north eastern suburban part of Kinshasa. He began his business in 2004. After hard work and good management, he succeeded in making it thrive thanks to the accumulated profits. He is a loyal client of HOPE RDC who has already received two different loans and has repaid them properly. He intends to reinforce the working capital with the next loan by buying ten charcoal sacks to resell at a profit as people do not have power and hot plates in this area. The business gives him a profit of US$30 every week. Emmanuel is 32 years old, married and the father of four children whose ages vary between 1 and 9 years old. Two of them attend school. His ambition is to change his business by opening a general store.
Additional Information
About HOPE DRCHOPE International has been providing small business loans and savings services to thousands of entrepreneurs in DRC since 2004. HOPE DRC targets small business owners who can use loans to increase their inventories or invest in assets that have the potential to increase their incomes. Funds from Kiva lenders play a major role in expanding access to affordable, flexible capital for micro-entrepreneurs, 80% of whom are women.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Hi, not sure if this would be the correct forum for this...
I am trying to figure out what my actual head tube angle is on my bike.
You can see this frame has a 74 degree HTA with a 366 fork length. I am currently running a 420 fork. I have searched around, and read the rule of thumb is every 10mm of fork atc will alter the head tube angle by .5 degrees. So based off that, I determined a 71.3 HTA.
But not sure about that. I actually threw on a 375 atc fork with 38mm of rake this weekend expecting a dramatic difference, and it really wasn't much.
Tried some trig on it to attempt to get the angle, but didn't have much luck. The only part I know for sure would be the atc + head tube length. Which isn't enough.
Thanks for any help.

The laser cutting technology area has information on 2-D and 3-D cutting machines, optics, resonators, cutting gases, and automated material handling systems. In addition to conventional CO2 systems, it has information on solid-state fiber and disk lasers.
October 9, 2007
Remote laser welding operations, many of which rely on a laser scanner to deflect the beam to the weld area, require high-beam-quality lasers. Years ago this meant that they were used only with high-power CO2 lasers. As the beam quality of Nd:YAG, disk, and fiber-optic lasers have improved, these lasers also have become suitable for remote welding, allowing the scanners to be smaller and faster.
August 8, 2007
The first rule of any technology used in a business is that automation applied to an efficient operation will magnify the efficiency.—Bill Gates, co-founder of Microsoft Corp.To say Mr. Gates lived his conviction successfully would be a vast understatement. To say following his path would be...
March 13, 2007
Fabricators are increasingly using compressed air in laser cutting, instead of relying on laser assist gases such as oxygen and nitrogen. Recent findings reveal that shop air can be used on more material types and thicknesses, including parts on which the edge quality is visible.
March 13, 2007
What's the point in purchasing an expensive laser cutting machine if you are going to waste money-making opportunities by unloading parts manually? Good nesting software, proper maintenance, and the latest unloading technology can help to make automated laser cutting and unloading a reality.
February 14, 2007
A real breakthrough in high-speed laser cutting occurred in 2005. Two additional parallel kinematic drive axes were placed near the point where the laser exits the head, creating a laser cutting machine with one dynamic and light cutting torch capable of independent movement along two axes but working in precise synchronicity with the machine's more sweeping movement of the laser head. This new approach opened up new frontiers and much higher limits in processing speed.
February 13, 2007
An expanding metal fabrication shop invests in lasers to help it produce precision parts and manage tight lead times.
January 17, 2007
High-speed laser cutting is a recent result of increased laser power and high acceleration motion technology, which have improved cutting speeds. Tilt beam 2D-3D systems allow laser cutting of small 3D parts, bevel cutting on 2D sheet metal and 3D parts, 3D trimming of small deep drawn parts, and processing of holes and cut-outs in hydroformed parts.
January 9, 2007
Both laser and waterjet cutting systems produce precision parts, and in many applications, either is appropriate. This article, which discusses the benefits and limitations of both technologies, can help you decide which is best-suited for your operation. In some cases, utilizing both can increase manufacturing flexibility and your business capabilities.
December 12, 2006
CO2 lasers are available in wattages that can cut plate more than 1 in. thick. The wattage, however, isn't the only factor that affects total speed and power. The assist gas chosen and the mode of the laser also influence final results.
October 10, 2006
Laser machine users know it, but often ignore it. Laser manufacturers swear by it, but often don't push it. It's maintenance, and it should be the watchword of anyone who owns and operates a laser.
September 12, 2006
Watson Engineering didn't have to add any laser operators during its most recent expansion effort. The reason was technology advancements associated with material handling and modern laser cutting devices.

Two standard laser assist gases are oxygen and nitrogen. However, a third gas — shop air — has become a viable alternative.

As explained in Part I of this two-part series, many factors can affect laser processing efficiency. This article explains basic laser beam delivery requirements; discusses laser gases and supply methods; and lists common problems caused by using incorrect pressure, flow, and laser speed.
February 7, 2006
H. Meeuwsen B.V., a fabricator in Yerseke, Netherlands, found that purchasing a laser that could handle parts up to 12 m long greatly enhanced its capabilities. It augmented this purchase with a tandem press brake. One side of the brake has an 8-m capacity; the other has a 4-m capacity. This gives the company the ability to bend 12-m parts, if necessary, or to run the two brakes simultaneously for smaller items. Subsequent growth in customer demand led the company to consider purchasing a second laser. A careful analysis revealed that the company could do just fine with a smaller laser, so it purchased a laser with a 3-m capacity.
January 10, 2006
Many factors can affect laser processing efficiency. This article, Part I of a two-part series, stresses laser system maintenance and discusses factors that can affect beam quality and efficiency—namely, impurities introduced by laser gases and gas supply systems and how to prevent them. It also has a supply system requirements list. Part II discusses beam delivery to the workpiece and the gases used to process the material.

What are your thoughts on beards? On a potential make-out partner, I have mixed feelings. I've lived in the beard forest that is Brooklyn for the past few years, and I must admit that I've come to admire a hipster beard or two.
You want me to make out with what now?
Beards are totally fine in theory. In practice though, some beards have a highly unfortunate effect on my skin, as if they were constructed out of steel wool dipped in whatever the opposite of Noxema is. Attractive!
This is what your prickly beard feels like.
Whatever your feelings on beards for the menfolk, you might assume that it's safe to say that beards have never been a good look for the ladies. Female facial hair is so taboo that waxing salons don't even dare list it (at my salon, it appears that one would have to request, and pay separately for, waxing of one's cheeks and "lower lip" instead of one convenient lady beard removal request). Merely having a few chin hairs could qualify as a life-long bearded lady career not so long ago in the circus' "differently beautiful" section.
This girl's got a lot of look going on.

Diet for stress management slideshow: Stress-reducing foods
Stress management diet
Stress management can be a powerful tool for staying healthy. There's evidence that too much pressure doesn't just put you in a bad mood. People who are under continual stress are more vulnerable to everything from colds to high blood pressure and heart disease. Although there are many ways to cope, one solution is to eat stress-fighting foods. Read on to learn how a stress management diet can help.
Stress-busting foods: How they work
Foods can fight stress in several ways. Research shows foods like a bowl of warm porridge, actually boost levels of serotonin, a calming brain chemical. Other foods can reduce levels of cortisol and adrenaline, stress hormones that take a toll on the body over time. Finally, a nutritious diet can counteract the impact of stress, by shoring up the immune system and helping to lower blood pressure. Do you know which foods are stress busters?
Complex carbohydrates
All carbohydrates prompt the brain to make more serotonin. For a steady supply of this feel-good chemical, it's best to eat complex carbs, which are digested more slowly. Good choices include wholegrain breakfast cereals, bread, pastas and porridge. Complex carbs can also help you feel balanced by stabilising blood sugar levels.
Popeye never let stress get the better of him – maybe it's all the magnesium in his spinach. Magnesium helps regulate cortisol levels and tends to get depleted when we're under pressure. Too little magnesium may trigger headaches and fatigue, compounding the effects of stress. One serving of spinach goes a long way towards replenishing magnesium stores. Not a spinach eater? Try a salmon fillet, also high in magnesium.
Oily fish
To keep cortisol and adrenaline in check, make friends with oily fish. Omega-3 fatty acids, found in fish like salmon and tuna (fresh, not tinned tuna), can prevent surges in stress hormones and protect from heart disease. For a steady supply, aim to eat about 85g (three ounces) of oily fish at least twice a week.
Black tea
Research suggests black tea can help you recover from stressful events more quickly. One study compared people who drank four cups of tea daily for six weeks with people who drank a tea-like placebo. The real tea drinkers reported feeling calmer and had lower levels of cortisol after stressful situations. Coffee, on the other hand, can increase levels of cortisol.
Herbal remedies
There are many herbal supplements that claim to help tackle symptoms of stress. Some products containing valerian are registered under the MHRA traditional herbal registration scheme (THR) for the temporary relief of symptoms associated with stress, such as mild anxiety. St John's wort and black cohosh products have also been registered as being used to relieve the symptoms of slightly low mood and mild anxiety. Unlike licensing for mainstream medicines, registration doesn't mean a herbal remedy has been tested and proven to actually work. It does mean the regulator is satisfied the product is made to good quality standards with appropriate labelling and a product information leaflet. It also means the herb has been used in traditional remedies for more than 30 years. Registered products carry a special THR leaf logo.
De-stress with exercise
Besides changing your diet, one of the best stress-busting tips is to start exercising. Aerobic exercise is the most effective, because it increases oxygen circulation and produces endorphins -- chemicals that make you feel happy. To get the maximum benefit, aim for at least 150 minutes of aerobic exercise a week, exercising on most days of the week.

Morgan Wolfers' picture of a spotted tiger moth and its pearl-like eggs is the kind of image you expect from a seasoned photographer: clean, micro-focused, incredibly detailed.
But the image betrays both an illusion of size and years of experience.
At 10 years old, the Conifer youth has accomplished what some photographers might only dream of: His work is on display at the Washington, D.C., home of Vice President Joe Biden.

New York state health officials say more than 782,000 people have enrolled for health insurance statewide under President Barack Obama's health care overhaul.
Monday marks the deadline for open enrollment through the state's health plan marketplace, called NY State of Health. Residents can choose from various health plans from 16 insurers and 10 dental insurers.
The state health department says more than 70 percent of those who have enrolled since Oct. 1 had been uninsured. Authorities say New York is on pace to meet its enrollment goal of 1.1 million people by the end of 2016.
Nationally, the Obama administration says more than 6 million Americans have signed up for insurance under the 2010 Affordable Care Act.

This is a great recipe - I saw it on foodtv a couple of years ago... Now I use it in my catering and sell it to a couple of coffeeshops. The peeps seem to love it! (I find it too sweet for my tastes, so I only use 1 tbsp maple syrup when I cook it for us, and I use only half of the half and half. It's still really good when you cut down the cream.)
Very nice recipe. The maple in it isvery creative!
Ashley U WOW!! 5 stars not enough. This was wonderful. I made it a day ahead up until the addition of the half & half and maple syrup. Then when I reheated it for dinner I added the milk and maple syrup.The dinner party guests loved it. I love leeks and sweet potatoes so this was a keeper for me. Thanks again.
This soup was wonderful. Very rich and tasty. We really enjoyed it alot. I didn't have any leeks, so left them out. I did add 1/2 tsp cumin and it tasted fantastic. Thanks!

Date of Stay: August, 2015
Traveling back home and decided to spend a few days near Pigeon Forge. Honestly this wasn't our first choice, but after a long drive this was so conveninet to I-40 we decided to give it a try and am I glad we did! This was a great campground. Friendly folks, good size site, full hook ups, an internet that worked plus cable. They have a nice size pool which looked immaculate and laundry which was very clean. Trash is picked up at site daily. Easy to find and the roads within the park easily handled a motorhome with tow. We plan on returning and staying longer.
Date of Stay: August, 2015
This is a great little park. Each time we've been here they've improved upon some item. They have nice spacious sites for big rigs. Its easy to find and convenient to interstate. The owner/operators are so nice and ready to help you any way they can, very knowledgeable about the area. We stayed here overnight but next time plan to stay longer.
Date of Stay: August, 2015
We've stayed here before because it is convenient, has pull thrus, and full hook ups. It is a bit of a mess right now, thus the $25 dollar charge because they are under construction. New owners have big plans and I hope they go through with fixing it up. The park itself is well set up, everything worked at our site. They need more gravel on the sites which are now pretty much overrun with grass. They do not have cable and I could not find the wifi they say is available. Still a good spot for overnight, just nothing fancy. This park is in Lake City.
Date of Stay: August, 2015
Great park, great staff. Spacious concrete sites, super water pressure, picnic table, grill and trash pick up at site. I'd rate this park a ten, but for the lack of signage directing you to the park. It's non existant when you get off the interstate. Driving a 40' motorhome w/tow thru the nearby community forced me to deduct a point. It was an ugly trip. But I must give kudos to the staff for their safety procedures during the tornado watch that was issued during our stay. I've never experienced that type of door to door attention and we've been caught in some bad weather while camping. Really good planning on their part.
Date of Stay: August, 2015
Second time we stayed here this year. Just use it as an overnight stop. It's easy on easy off I-90, has a nearby diesel station, restaurant and grocery store. Gravel sites a little mucky from rain this time, but no problem getting level. Cable only offers 5 stations but fine for overnight stay otherwise you can use your satellite. Wifi was fair. Stayed here in a 40' motorhome w/tow; did not disconnect.
Date of Stay: August, 2015
Park could use a little TLC. In its day was probably considered a resort, but I don't think so now. Pros: good for overnight stay, site and most of the roads were asphalted, didn't have to unhook, they did have full hook ups, and staff was super friendly. Cons: not too much around, lots of workers and permanents, looked like all the water connections leaked. Camped here in a motorhome, would not stay here again.
Date of Stay: August, 2015
We stayed here 4 days because it was such a central location. Day trips to the Redwood Forest, coastal towns and Crater Lake. Nice, clean campground. Concrete pads, 50 amp, Cable, and a wi fi that worked! Only used the laundry which had nice washers and dryers, very clean. Some noise from I-5 but by the end of the day we were so tired it didn't bother us at all. We camped here in a 40' motorhome with tow. Hook ups are conveniently located and site was long enough for coach and truck.
Date of Stay: July, 2015
Nicely RV park with a lot of permanents. Staff was very helpful/friendly and provided great information and cookies! We stayed here a week and made day trips all over Washington. We had a back-in space which was kind of tight for us, but nicely kept. Their cable was OK, wifi was bad, laundry was super clean and the park itself was easy access from highway. You could walk to local coffee hut.
Date of Stay: July, 2015
Park appeared to be an old mobile home park that they're fixing up. We had a great site (#27) that was nice and wide and long enough for our motorhome. There were some large trees, but we were able to maneuver around just fine. Water pressure was excellent and this really is the best park for access to Glacier Natl Park, which is why we were there. We'd stay here again if ever in the area.
Date of Stay: June, 2015
Nice little park right off exit on I-29. Pull thru long and spacious. Owners are friendly, hands on, and escort you to your site. We camped here in a 40' motorhome with a pick up in tow. We did not have to disconnect. You can walk to a number of restaurants and diesel fuel is available - all at the same exit. Wifi is provided, no cable.
Date of Stay: June, 2015
Park is nice, clean and staff very friendly and helpful. Cash or check only. We just needed an overnight spot and the pull thru we got was nice and long. We camped in a 40' motorhome with a pick up truck in tow. I'd rate this campground much higher, but for the tight turns required to get to your site. Just staying overnight we didn't want to disconnect. Plus the "rock" decorations that these parks insist on having are just accidents waiting to happen. We'd stay again, but would probably disconnect.
Date of Stay: July, 2014
Very nice park and well-maintained. Bath houses were spotless and lawns were kept manicured. This is a great park for families with kids. Lots to do, activities, mini golf, playground, pool and a lake to fish, etc. If you're there to visit the area be aware that everything is about a 30 minute drive away from the campground at a minimum. As others have stated the initial entry into the campground is horrendous. We arrived in a 40' motor home with a toad and pretty much blocked everything while I hurried to check us in to get through the gate! Bad set up. Our site was long and wide enough, we did hear the quarry somewhat during the week and the speedway over the weekend, but nothing real noticeable. We camped here to visit with relatives and that would be the only reason we return; just not our cup of tea.
Date of Stay: August, 2013
This is a great campground, with the Passport discount you cannot beat it. It's clean, has full hook ups , and pull thrus. This is not the place to stay if you have kids and are looking for a family vacation. We stop here going in and out of Florida and it never disappoints. Yes, they have some rules, but get over it. We're not playing TBall and everyone doesn't get a trophy. Restrooms are spotless, satellite is IFFY, but they do provide Internet service. Great place to stopover from I75 and/or 10. Unfortunately, owners want to sell, so if they do I'm sure things will change.
Date of Stay: July, 2012
Love this park. Easy access for 40 ft. rig with tow. Nice sites, pool, staff and campers. Stayed here overnight last year and wanted to stay longer this time. Beautiful trees for shade, however they do not impede parking your rig! Lots of stuff for kids and adults alike. Convenient to grocery stores, restaurants and highways. Following GPS instructions we thought we were entering a housing plan. Keep going and you will be pleasantly surprised.
Date of Stay: July, 2012
This is a great looking campground which appears to be well maintained. I did not use the bathhouse facilities, but did go in to check them and they were absolutely spotless. Nice shower facilities with plenty of room. The site we had was plenty big for our 40 ft. rig and tow vehicle. All staff encountered we're friendly and eager to help. Nightly rate shows Passport discount. Included 50 amp service, water, sewage and cable. Each site has picnic table (in good shape) and fire ring. If you stay for any length of time be aware they only have 1 washer and dryer.

Judge who presided at Anthony trial will speak at Law Day luncheon
Published: Wednesday, April 11, 2012 at 6:28 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, April 11, 2012 at 6:28 p.m.
Ninth Circuit Judge Belvin Perry Jr., who presided over the Casey Anthony trial last year, will be the keynote speaker next month at the Marion County Bar Association's Law Day luncheon.
Perry is chief judge of the Ninth Judicial Circuit, which encompasses Orange and Osceola counties.
Perry could not be reached for comment about his May 4 address, which will be held at the Golden Ocala Golf and Equestrian Club.
G. Richard Chamberlin, of Williston, is this year's recipient of the Richard D. Custureri Pro Bono Service Award for his service to those who can't afford to hire an attorney.
This year's Law Day theme "No Courts, No Justice, No Freedom," will focus on the importance of the court system to protect citizens' rights.
According to the American Bar Association, President Dwight Eisenhower launched the first Law Day in 1958 to reflect the nation's dedication to the rule of law. In 1961, Congress established May 1 as the official date to commemorate Law Day. Every sitting president since Eisenhower has issued a proclamation declaring May 1 as national Law Day.
One of Anthony's defense attorneys, Dorothy Clay Sims, is from Ocala. And Anthony's main counsel, Jose Baez, recently took on Charlie Kay Ely's case. She was convicted of first-degree murder and sentenced to life in prison for the murder of Seath Jackson in October 2011.

Posted by a Consumer on 12/01/125.0 out of 5.0This firm was amazing. Jarvis, Krieger and Sullivan represented me in my divorce. I came to them after my case was messed up by another attorney. After I switched to Jarvis, Krieger and Sullivan, I was amazed by the skill of my attorney, Andy, in court--he had everyone's head spinning and every ruling went my way. The support staff --especially Gina--was responsive and returned calls the same day. I now have full custody of my kids and a great support payment from my ex. Thank you so much.Posted by a Consumer on 10/25/111.5 out of 5.0Atty selection was ad - "provide a team of skilled lawyers - will care & fight very hard for me to win my case at a reasonable fee"¿ using their "skilled & competent staff". I went in well organized. After 7 months of slow responses, docs w/ errors, arbitration that was excessive & legal fees that were approaching 2 ½ times the amount of the original estimate I terminated. The case turned out to be more expensive from in settlement & out of pocket legal fees and took more time than reasonable.
