We have spent some time at RV shows and I can definitely undarstend the confusion. We have what we want in mind but i'm sure if it really came down to buying it we would be wondering, second guessing, and having trouble deciding too. So many great choices.I agree, with lots of kids, you'll want bunks and good stow away beds to give yourselves plenty of room during the day. Pop outs are great for the extra room.Storage is essential. Make sure there is plenty of storage. Good luck on your decision. You will find the right one.Tawnee recently posted an amazing article

Paestum Travel guide
Paestum : Michelin's recommendations
Paestum was discovered by chance in 1750 during the construction of a road in the area. Founded by the Greeks in around 600 BC, the ruins are now sheltered by cypresses and oleanders and have a melancholic charm that is typical of Ancient sites. Unlike Pompeii, it was malaria rather than a natural disaster which forced the inhabitants of Paestum to abandon their city towards the end of the Roman Empire. The town is now a popular seaside resort once more.

Wave carries highest transit fares in state, analysis shows
Published: Saturday, April 6, 2013 at 7:00 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, April 6, 2013 at 1:13 a.m.
Wave Transit is trying to do more with less, and that might be leading to the highest transit fares in North Carolina, according to an internal analysis of eight transit agencies across the state.
A peer analysis conducted by the Wave staff concluded that the transit agency receives relatively low financial support from its primary government – the city of Wilmington – and, without a dedicated local funding source, passes much of its operating costs along to customers.
Kevin O'Grady, a Wave board member and a Wilmington city councilman, said finding the right mixture of taxpayer subsidy and fares is a challenge for the agency and its board.
"That's the balance that has to be struck," O'Grady said. "How much do the riders pay versus how much will it be supported? Because all public transit systems are subsidized."
In February, Wave hiked regular adult fares from $1.50 to $2 and altered its routes, causing a loss of about 14,000 riders on fixed routes – or 9.5 percent – in comparison with February 2012.
The $2 fares are the highest in the state. Greensboro Transit has $1.50 fares, but the other six agencies studied have $1 fares.
"Continued escalation in passenger fares threatens to jeopardize the ability of Wave Transit to provide affordable public transportation to its core demographic which is the transit dependent," the report says. A reduction in overall ridership threatens the system's efficiency by leaving valuable seats unfilled, it concludes. Some of the state's transit agencies have found other funding sources.
In Orange County, for instance, a half-cent sales tax on select items is used to pay for transit, while Asheville uses a $5 vehicle registration fee to help offset costs and keep fares low.
"Without a vehicle registration fee, without any kind of dedicated local funding source, really the only thing we can change is the amount of service we put on the street or how much we charge for the service," said Albert Eby, Wave Transit's executive director. "It's not something we're proud of, that we charge the most in the state, but we feel it's responsible."
Wilmington's $1.175 million general fund contribution to Wave in financial year 2011 was the lowest percentage-wise of the eight transit agencies studied, representing 16 percent of the transit authority's budget and 1.38 percent of the city's budget.
The contribution was sufficient for Wave to continue the service it has now, in part because the agency is using its funding efficiently, with the lowest expense per revenue hour and expense per revenue mile among its peers.
"We're trying to work to show that the organization is more efficient and economical, especially when it's impacting local dollars," Eby said.
That's fortunate, O'Grady said, because the city is helping the agency the best it can. "I can tell you that the city of Wilmington doesn't have additional money available to subsidize it," he said.

The forthcoming release of The Best of the Black President signifies the rebirth of Knitting Factory Records. Earlier this year, KFR licensed the 45-album Fela Kuti catalogue. Over the next 18 months, they will release remasters of all the Fela CDs in unique digi-packs with the original artwork, as well as certain releases on vinyl for the first time in North America. KFR will also be giving the first official release to the entire Koola Lobitos catalogue- this was Fela's highlife band which he fronted through the 60′s.
The Best of the Black President, to be released October 27th, compiles thirteen of the most popular Fela compositions, all fully remastered. It will be released in two forms, one as a deluxe version including a bonus DVD.
In addition to The Knitting Factory Records reissues, the first ever official Fela Kuti website has been launched (Fela.net), and a Broadway musical (Fela!) opens in November at Eugene O'Neil Theatre. Also keep your eyes peeled for Felabration events happening across the country and the world in mid-October, to celebrate the birthday of Fela Anikulapo Kuti.

@PtonMensTennis Wins 5-2 at Cornell, Hosts Columbia Sunday in Ivy Finale
Keeping its Ivy League title hopes alive, the 48th-ranked Princeton men's tennis team defeated No. 51 Cornell 5-2 Friday afternoon in Ithaca and will head home for Senior Day Sunday against Columbia.
"It was another great team effort on the road against a tough opponent," Princeton head coach Billy Pate said. "Once again, we set a positive tone with doubles and I credit (Dan) Davies and (Matt) Spindler for leading the charge. We'll have a good practice tomorrow and prepare for the regular-season finale at home against Columbia on Sunday. We encourage a great home crowd to honor our four outstanding seniors between the doubles and singles."
Sunday's match will begin at 2 p.m. and will be the final Ivy matches for the senior class that includes Michael Lin, Matija Pecotic, Matt Siow and Matt Spindler.
Princeton won the first two doubles matches to be decided to claim the point there, and Dan Richardson, Jonathan Carcione and Pecotic had the singles wins that got Princeton to four points.
Pecotic's win was his 21st consecutive Ivy League singles victory as he moves within one win of concluding a third straight league-undefeated season.
As for the Ivy League race, much remains undecided. The Tigers are still alive for a share of the title, but Harvard must lose at least one of its final three matches for Princeton to get a share. The Crimson, who still have to play Brown, Yale and Dartmouth, had their match Friday against Brown postponed and are scheduled to play at Yale Sunday.

How Do You Get a More Complete Picture of an Applicant's Potential for Success in Graduate School?
Test scores, undergraduate grades and letters of recommendation tell only part of the story. What if you had a tool that provided reliable, quantifiable information about the personal attributes that influence an applicant's success in graduate school?
Now you do. The ETS® Personal Potential Index (ETS® PPI) is a web-based evaluation system designed to provide a more complete picture of an applicant's potential for success in graduate or professional school beyond grades, test scores and recommendation letters. Multiple evaluators the applicant has selected (up to five per evaluation report) rate the applicant on six personal attributes that have been identified as critical for success in graduate, business and professional school. ETS then creates an ETS PPI Evaluation Report that incorporates the evaluations and comments from all of the evaluators and sends the report to schools and programs the applicant designates.
View the ETS PPI Product Tour (Flash) to learn how the ETS PPI can benefit your graduate program or academic institution.
Six Attributes for Success
The ETS PPI offers information on six personal attributes of applicants that graduate, business and professional school deans and faculty have identified as essential for successful graduate study. These include:
- Knowledge and creativity
- Communication skills
- Teamwork
- Resilience
- Planning and organization
- Ethics and integrity
Faculty and other evaluators rate applicants on each of these dimensions by responding to 24 statements. They also provide an overall rating.
"While we have objective information on the prior performance in undergraduate school and scores from the GRE®, we lack standardized information on other important traits, such as persistence, determination and creative potential — all important factors in completing a graduate degree. The development of the ETS Personal Potential Index serves as an important step in providing admission decision makers with more background information about critical characteristics of the applicant." — Scott A. Bass, Provost, American University
Read what others are saying about ETS PPI.
Created Through Extensive Research
The ETS PPI grew out of the groundbreaking work of ETS researchers in the measurement of personal attributes and their role in academic performance.
In hundreds of interviews, graduate and business school deans and faculty members frequently cited such personal attributes as resilience and communication skills as important for graduate-level success — even more frequently than mastery of the discipline. Interviewees also expressed concern about the persistent problem of graduate school attrition and time-to-degree, which they believed might be accounted for by personal attributes.
In addition, ETS PPI was pilot-tested internally at ETS as well as through Project 1000, a program designed to increase the number of underrepresented students pursuing graduate study.
Learn more about the research behind ETS PPI.
Validity Research for the ETS PPI
ETS is committed to ongoing validity research for ETS PPI that explores the relationship between these attributes and success in graduate, business and professional school.

Dartmouth Uses Third-Quarter Surge To Top Football 35-21 In Season Finale
An impressive performance by Dartmouth freshman quarterback Dalyn Williams and a series of mistakes, especially in the third quarter, were too much for the Princeton football team during Saturday's season finale. Dartmouth scored 35 unanswered points to rally past Princeton 35-21 for its third straight victory in the series.
Princeton led 14-0 after a short touchdown run by Quinn Epperly, who suffered an early shoulder injury, and a blocked punt returned for a touchdown by freshman John Hill, but it could not hold on to the momentum against the Big Green.
Dartmouth, which scored late in the second quarter to get within seven points, opened the third with a 54-yard touchdown pass from wideout Ryan McManus, who took the ball on a throwback from Williams, to Bo Patterson, who ran uncovered down the Dartmouth sideline.
Princeton's second play on the next drive resulted in a fumble, and the Big Green capitalized four plays later on a four-yard touchdown pass from Williams to Mitch Aprahamian. Princeton then fumbled the ensuing kickoff, and Williams was back in the end zone six plays later.
All told, a 14-7 Princeton lead turned into a 28-14 deficit in a five-minute span.
The Tiger offense, which had showed terrific improvement this season under its two-quarterback system, tried to rally without either of the duo able to throw the ball down the field. Connor Michelsen, who started the first nine games of the season, injured his throwing shoulder in the fourth quarter against Yale and was unavailable.
According to head coach Bob Surace, Epperly suffered a shoulder injury on the third play from scrimmage, which limited the Tiger passing to short passes. When time started to run out on the offense, Epperly tried a deep pass in the fourth quarter, but he wasn't able to get enough on the throw and it was intercepted at midfield. That set up Dartmouth's final scoring drive of the game.
Princeton freshman quarterback Kedric Bostic did gain late experience, and he scored on a nine-yard touchdown run, but the Tigers were unable to recover the onsides kick.
While the loss was a disappointing conclusion to the 2012 season, it doesn't take away the great progress made by the program. After back-to-back 1-9 seasons, Princeton stayed in the championship hunt until the final weekend and posted its first winning record in league play (4-3) since 2006. The four-win turnaround marked the program's best in more than two decades.
Both senior co-captains Mike Catapano and Andrew Starks posted impressive final performances in Orange and Black. Starks had a team-best 16 tackles and will likely complete the season among the Ivy League top three in stops, while Catapano likely clinched the sacks title with two more against Dartmouth. Catapano ended the season with 12 sacks, the most at Princeton since David Ferrara had 12.5 during the 1998 season.
Sophomore Will Powers rushed 10 times for 71 yards, while Epperly completed 11 of 18 passes for 101 yards. Junior Roman Wilson completed his breakout season with four catches for 33 yards, while senior lineman Matt Landry posted a career-best 10 tackles.

Well, a flood threat will have an impact on the value of your home. Who is going to want to buy a home in the flood plain when a flood threat exists every 2 years?
Good luck with that.
Also, if you don't want your house taxed at 3.8 percent under the Affordable Care Act, sell it this year. When Obamacare becomes law, one of those unknown mandates is to tax your home when you sell it.

European social dialogue refers to discussions, consultations, negotiations and joint actions involving organisations representing the two sides of industry (employers and workers). It takes two main forms:
Financial support is given to transnational projects carried out by social partners and others active in the field of industrial relations through the social dialogue budget lines. It is also provided through the European Social Fund (ESF) for capacity-building of social partner organisations at national level.
The European Commission consults the social partners on the possible direction of an initiative, in a first stage, and on the content of an initiative, in a second stage.
For an organisation to be recognised as a partner in European social dialogue, it must be organised at the EU level and capable of taking part in consultations and negotiating agreements.
As far as possible, organisations should be representative of all EU Member States, while their national members must be recognised as social partners in the respective countries.
Since 2006, representativeness studies have been carried by the EU agency in charge of research on living and working conditions, Eurofound.

ZF-8102: Relative URIs in Atom links may fail to be constructed from the base URI value of the feed
When parsing an Atom link element, the presence of an empty href attribute fails to trigger a URI construction using the base URI of the feed. Essentially an empty href attribute should be interpreted as being equal to the base URI of the feed.
This can be fixed by detecting relative URIs more robustly and holding the base URI of the feed as a separate cached value to simplify implementation. Some checking should be done to ascertain whether this also effects the RSS parsing class and perhaps add a getBaseUri() method to the feed and entry APIs.
Fixed in r18654 which also added full support for relative URI parsing.

Gardening Articles: Flowers :: Perennials
Japanese Beetle
by National Gardening Association Editors
Iridescent Japanese beetles might be considered pretty if they weren't so destructive. Adults are about 1/2" long.
Japanese beetles are primarily a pest in the eastern U.S., though they turn up west of the Rockies from time to time. Their appetite for a wide variety of plants makes them especially troublesome. Adults feed on just about every kind of ornamental and edible crop, sometimes in disturbingly large crowds. They chew leaf tissue from between the veins, leaving a lacy skeleton. Prior to pupating, the 1-inch-long, white, c-shaped grubs live in the soil and feed on the roots of many plants. Grubs are often a problem in lawns.
Japanese beetles are easy to see and are fairly easy to knock into a can of soapy water.
Yellow target traps baited with a pheromone attractant work, but sometimes too well. Don't place one near your garden or you'll be pulling beetles in from all over town.
Deter feeding by adult beetles by spraying plants with neem oil. Use parasitic nematodes in lawns and garden beds for grub control.

Rated 3 out of 5 by SavyMom Pretty but.... I was really excited about purchasing these seat cushions. I recently upgraded my kitchen with a complete renovation. I chose new colors and these match perfectly. However, the quality is poor. These cushions are lumpy and the ties on each cushion( I purchased 8 of them) has ripped or torn. I have sewn each cushion at least once to reattach the ties. September 23, 2013

CSPI Report: Science Advice Committees Need OverhaulCiting numerous cases at the Energy, Interior and Agriculture
departments where industry representatives are improperly
serving on government scientific advisory panels, the Center for
Science in the Public Interest today called on the incoming
Obama administration to initiate a complete overhaul of the
federal advisory committee system. The report
examined appointments at several dozen of the nearly 200
science-based advisory committees that offer advice on issues
ranging from food safety and energy production to protection of
the environment and public health.
The report's findings are based on the 1972 Federal Advisory
Committee Act, which states that members of panels offering
scientific advice should be free from conflicts of interest and
reflect balance in points of view. The investigation found
numerous examples where government agencies appoint members with
industry affiliations and other financial conflicts of interest.
The investigation also found the Bush administration made no
significant changes in policy despite Government Accountability
Office reports in 2004 and 2008 that outlined similar problems at the three agencies.
For example, the Department of Energy's Nuclear Energy Advisory Committee, whose charge includes advising on nuclear waste storage options, is dominated by members with ties to the nuclear power industry. The National Coal Council is similarly dominated by representatives of the coal industry, despite a charter that
calls on the panel to evaluate the technical feasibility of
clean coal technologies like carbon sequestration. "The new
administration should act immediately to address longstanding
deficiencies in the advisory committee system, especially since
the federal agencies themselves appear reluctant to respond to
repeated criticisms of their management," the report concludes.
Enviros: Clean Coal Lacks Clean Science
A coalition of environmental groups calling itself the Reality
Coalition has launched a high-profile advertising campaign to combat the coal industry's push for "clean coal," which has been backed by president-elect Barack Obama despite controversy over its scientific feasibility. The campaign is in response to a 2008
advertising campaign sponsored by the American Coalition for Clean Coal Electricity (ACCC), a trade organization for the mining industry, coal transporters, and electricity producers. The ACCC's website features research from Washington University in St. Louis, whose
Consortium for Clean Coal Utilization receives funding from Arch Coal, Peabody Energy, and Ameren. The environmental groups, which include the Alliance for Climate Protection, League of
Conservation Voters, National Wildlife Federation, Natural
Resources Defense Council, and Sierra Club, argue
that mercury emissions, landscape alteration, and toxic sludge
production remain unaddressed by industry's proposals to create
"clean coal" through capturing carbon emissions.
Takes One to Know One?
The University of Minnesota medical school professor who is
helping write the school's new conflict-of-interest rules was
disciplined for secretly steering a $501,000 research grant to
his own company, the Minnesota Star Tribune
reported last week. That 2004 incident led medical school dean Deborah Powell to ban Leo Furcht, chairman of the lab medicine and pathology departments, from conducting any business-sponsored research at the university for three years. Powell said she subsequently chose Furcht for the
conflict-of-interest task force because "he had extensive
experience with national professional organizations on devising
conflict-of-interest rules." Furcht sold his company, MCL, in
November 2003 for $9.5 million in stock, sharing five percent
of the proceeds with the university.
Harvard Prof Quits Supplement Co. Board
Harvard Medical School pathology professor David Sinclair
resigned from a dietary supplement company advisory board after
his paid endorsement of Shaklee's anti-aging pill Vivix was
exposed by a Wall Street Journal
investigation. Sinclair's name does not appear on Shaklee's US
website, but remains on the company's Canadian
website. Sinclair, who
owns patents on the anti-aging and anti-obesity properties of
molecules like resveratrol, started the company Sirtris
Pharmaceuticals, which was later bought out by GlaxoSmithKline
for $8 million. He currently earns $297,000 annually for
consulting for Glaxo, according to the article.
Odds and EndsThe Food and Drug Administration
is accepting comments until February 27 on a proposed rule that requires medical device and pharmaceutical companies to disclose their clinical investigators' financial interests. ... In a flap
suggesting it doesn't take much to trigger a
conflict-of-interest scandal in France, former French research
minister Claude Allčgre, along with other members of the Institute of the Physics of the Globe of Paris (IPGP), allegedly edited and accepted papers from colleagues at their own institute for publication in the journal Earth and Planetary Science Letters, according to
Science Magazine and the French daily Le Monde. ... Harvard child psychiatrist Joseph Biederman will quit his speaking engagements and other activities for pharmaceutical companies,
and also stop working on industry-financed activities within the
hospital, the New York Times reported. A Congressional investigation found Biederman received at least $1.6 million in consulting fees by drug makers from 2000 to 2007, but failed to report much of the income to Harvard officials. ... More than 40 pharmaceutical companies have instituted a voluntary ban on giving gifts to doctors, the New York Times reports. ... The Environmental Protection Agency's Inspector General blasted the agency for failing to consider multi-chemical exposures when considering the toxic effects of perchlorate, but failed to criticize the EPA's decision not to order clean-ups, the
New York Times reports.
Cheers and Jeers

Georgetown Takes Two Close Ones From @PUSoftball
Princeton had won four of five games over the weekend in Baltimore, but things didn't tip the Tigers way a bit further south Tuesday afternoon.
Georgetown swept a twinbill from Princeton, 3-1 and 7-6 in nine innings, to drop Princeton to 10-6 on the season. The Hoyas improved to 8-20.
Georgetown's Lauren O'Leary proved tough to solve in game one, as Princeton managed only three hits and a pair of walks against her. Princeton's only run was unearned, when Lizzy Pierce got on with a two-out walk in the third and scored on a Georgetown error committed during a Candy Button double.
Button finished with two of Princeton's three hits as Rachel Rendina got the other to lead off the game. O'Leary fanned 11 Tigers.
Liza Kuhn (3-1) took the loss for Princeton, giving up six hits without a walk. All six were singles, and four of those six hits plus a hit batter proved costly. Georgetown went ahead 2-0 in the second when Hannah Slovacek picked up a two-out single, and Shikara Lowe had the Hoyas' other RBI in the third after Princeton had scored to briefly halve the deficit.
Princeton led three times in the nightcap, but each time Georgetown came back. The second of those leads came on a Rachel Rendina hit, and Princeton went ahead 4-2 in the top of the sixth only to see the Hoyas tie it again with two runs in the bottom half of the inning against starter Alex Peyton.
The Tigers again went ahead as the game went long, this time in the top of the ninth on a Danielle Allen two-run hit, but Georgetown rallied against reliever Shanna Christian with two singles and a game-winning double by Sophia Garquicevich-Almeida for the 7-6 victory.
Rendina and Kayla Bose each had three hits in the nightcap to lead Princeton, while Peyton went 7 1/3 and gave up nine hits and eight walks, striking out five with three of her four runs earned. Shanna Christian (4-2) took the loss for Princeton, giving up three runs on three hits, striking out three.
The Tigers will head into Virginia Wednesday to take on James Madison (16-7) in a 3 p.m. doubleheader in Harrisonburg, Va.

Planning a girls' weekend in Vegas? Eva Longoria has the perfect restaurant for you.
Catering to a female crowd, the Desperate Housewives actress is taking a gamble on turning Beso Steakhouse, her former eatery, into SHe by Morton's (weird capitalization intended), a space for "fashionistas, clubbers and celebrities," the Houston Chronicle reports.
The restaurant, scheduled to open on New Year's Eve in Crystals at CityCenter, will be a place where high-end steak house meets fashion runway and DJ booth. The environment is designed to "create a feeling of empowerment, especially for female guests," according to a press release quoted by the newspaper.
Steak, fashion and girl power all wrapped up in one? Sure, we'll bite. But will watching models on a runway while we stuff our faces with filet mignon make us hungry for more?
