Gravel road and gravel sites but that is ok since it was very clean. Level site, no jacking required. Owner was superb and seemingly very dedicated to customer service. Easy on-off to I-25 Interstate. Was guided to the site. Will camp here again if in the region. - Jake67

The NRA Whittington Center has two campgrounds - one with just 30amp and where the bathroom/laundry room is located. The other one is the 30/50amp (and where they charge $3 more per site) and no bathroom facility. They both have full hookup, pull through sites, fairly good size yard and beautiful scenery. Our electric was good and the water quality good as well. There is no Wifi or cable, no pool, play area, or dog park. Of course the main reason for coming here is to shoot - that's your recreation. There were some shooting facilities that were closed and that is where I took my dogs to walk and run (watch out for skunks and cougars (I was warned about them but did not see any), but did see skunks.) - Kerch Family

We have stayed here several times with our family. It has the most beautiful view of the mountains around Raton and the spaces are plenty big. It is a little bit dirty and in the summer it rains nearly everyday. Other than that, it is a picturesque, peaceful place. It is quiet and there are no street lights! - Marilynintexas

Beautiful views in all directions. Easy access to and in the park with our larger sized 40'+ Big Rig RV although roads and sites are gravel and can be very rough in places. Great Verizon LTE service and good AT&T 4G service. Quiet at night. Very friendly and helpful staff. We would certainly return. - Snidely Whiplash

Raton RV Park – Raton, NM. Don't know where to start with this campground. We stayed here on January 23, 2007. The park is located south of mid-town with entry off the main drag. Sites are small. The park is VERY tired looking and in need of maintenance. Watch for overhead obstructions from trees. No bathhouse. However…we only paid $15 for one night with full hook-ups. Before, we stayed here we went to another park in town, Summerland next to I-25 - no go. Raton is not a town where you'll find outstanding campgrounds. We returned and spent the night at this park. Don't expect much from this park, however, it's okay for a night. - DelArmy

Come for the views and hospitality and enjoy a very nice camp ground while you are here. Views are awesome. Easy off and on. A little interstate noice, but only if you are outside and then not bad. - Wndopdlr1
Jun 2016 - $32.00
This is an excellent and convenient stop off I-25 with a beautiful mountain view. Spots are close together so maneuvering can be tight. However, we were happy with our pull-through spot and full hook-ups. There was no store or cafe during our visit despite the name, but the staff was helpful and kind. Wi-Fi is limited. We will definitely return here next time we are in the area. - Texas rv family

Located just on the New Mexico side or the CO-NM border. Multi-level as is not unusual in the mountains but it seemed easy to navigate with large rig w/towed. Utilities, restrooms, check-in were all good. Café was not open due to a shortage of employees. - gumper

Very friendly owners. 50 amp site was long and wide. Picnic table was supplied but could use some loving care. Many full timers that had junkie rigs with unkept sites. I don't think we will be back. - Texan58
Aug 2016 - $33.00
We stayed here twice, going and coming on our trip to Colorado. A good place to overnight. Almost no shade except in the tent area. Staff was friendly and helpful. Very few 50 amp sites, but we made it fine with 30 amps, since we really didn't need that 2nd air conditioner for the evening. There are not a lot of full hookup sites, so call early for a reservation. Wi fi was ok, good cable, which thrilled us after 3 weeks in Colorado with no TV at all. Sites are flat and level gravel: somewhat dusty. - Seabreeze Texas
Aug 2016 - $37.00
Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Driving lanes are huge and easy to navigate with a big rig. Wifi was extremely flaky and thus unusable. There were a lot of streetlights in the campground which I suppose is for security, but it made it difficult to sleep without hanging towels over all the bedroom windows and shutting interior doors. I would only stay here for an overnighter (which is what we did). - Brad & Angela

Restrooms mostly had no toilet paper and not real clean. Cottonwood trees leave a mess on everything and make it hard to breathe. Owners were nice but not helpful with any information about the area. The park looks messy with lots of "stuff" laying around. The price by month seems good but electricity is metered and is .20 per kWh which is ridiculous by most standards. There are lots of live in people in the park, some construction workers, some unemployed. Most keep their sites cleaned up and are quiet. - dldw1954

Rate reflects Good Sam discount. We had a 30 amp full hook up, pull through site. Gravel with a few trees. Close to interstate and good location for one night, road noise not too bad. Lady in office was very friendly and gave us information as to where to get our tire replaced after a blowout on the way. Wi-fi was okay. Laundry room available. We would stay here again for a night on our way to Arizona. - krb

Small park, very close to the Interstate. Rather beat up locale. Does the job for one night. The owners are very personable and thoughtful. Honestly, not my first choice, but the park I went to first, was closed and abandoned. I was tired and ready to stop for the night and this one was next on my route. - Spike in FL

We knew about the fire ban and the boil water order before we arrived this year, so came better prepared than last August. Because there were 5 of us in our non-FHU site, we used the shower building across from the Visitor Center for the first time. It had two very busy, well-maintained private shower stalls (one wheelchair-accessible) in the men's room. Although it rained every afternoon we were there, our grandsons loved catching dozens of small perch and a few 9- to 14-inch trout in Lake Maloya. So, it was another enjoyable trip to our favorite New Mexico state park. - fanrgs

We stayed 3 nights in the Lake Alice campground in lot 12. Was very nice, had ranger talks in the morning with coffee and doughnuts and ranger talks and walks at night also . The lakes were beautiful, and the campgrounds were kept very clean. Nicest state park I have ever stayed in. Roads and sites in Alice were gravel and cement, some not too level, but we got our 34-footer level easy enough.
Spent 2 nights up top in the Soda Pocket campground dry camping. Beautiful sites and lots of trees, mostly level with tables nice big covers and fire pits. Big spaces, spaced quite far apart. - jrexpoo
May 2016 - $18.00
Camped there on May 6th and departed on May 9, 2016. On each hydrant there is a Boil Water Advisory E-Coli notification not mentioned on the website this notice dates from June of 2015, so if you go be sure to fill your water tank. Also there is no fire notice except for propane and white gas cooking devices. The overall campsite is well used and the sites vary as to how level they are. The shower is about 1 mile down the road at the check in, we did not check them. If I were to camp there again I would take site #4, even though it says on the Reserve America site that it was limited to 20'. The actual site was much larger and would take our 27' TT with ease. The dump site is on unlevel ground and does not have water there to rinse down your hose or tank. NM seems to under fund this park it could be a great place. - Trainut

We stopped here as there is not a whole lot of choices up this side of the interstate travels. It had the best reviews. As others have said, it is at the back of a motel. Hilly, and unlevel. We did not take advantage of the breakfast. Our site was not level, and had it been rainy we could not have stayed as it would have been a mud fest. Let's say it is ok in a pinch, but staying at Walmart may have been a better idea. They are not trying at all to make it a decent place for large rigs. But, it is a port in a storm. Did not use shower or breakfast. Overpriced at $37 at Good Sam rate. - Vectra Travelers
Mar 2014 - $36.00
Located on a hill behind a motel. Continental breakfast (waffles, etc.= very good) is included in price, so that was a plus. NO atmosphere to speak of, although the lobby had a fantastic view. Bathroom use is limited to what was once a motel room. Your shower/toilet facility is private and lockable and towels, shampoo were provided. However, if someone else is using it, you're out of luck! We thought it was pricey for what was provided. Wi-Fi connectivity was good. - mallardcamper
Aug 2013 - $37.00
Overpriced for RV lot behind motel. But it is a good one night stop location. Wi-Fi was available in the motel lobby and breakfast was provided. Not a bad breakfast and they have a waffle maker. Permanent resident on site to assist setup if you need it. Excellent Mexican restaurant 500 ft. away. Site is well lit, but area is somewhat distressed and it was only us and two permanents on site for the night. Walmart and fuel is handy within 1/2 mile. Motel has 2 washers and dryers. Would stay again or try out RV park at I25 New Mexico/Colorado border. - Crawdot

Level concrete pad to park on but very tight, slides may prevent the adjacent site from being occupied. Owner was very friendly and helpful but the shower/restroom was minimal, required a key for each entry, and was littered with painting supplies, etc. Price was a high for what it was, minimal amenities: no picnic table, no grill, no cable but wifi was pretty good and a lot of CO over-the-air channels. Price probably reflected Memorial Day weekend crowds but with tire problems we were happy to find a place to stay though Walmart may have been a better option. - Old Geezer

Pass this one by if you can. It works for an over night stop, but barely. We saw many RV's come in and drive out, which is what we should have done. Sites are beat up concrete pads, very close together. Most of the sites were full of mud and water. It is spring, so that accounts for some of it, but most of the sites seem a little below ground level, so become mud ponds. The topping on the cake was when dumping the sewer, which quickly began spewing all over the ground from blockage somewhere down in the drain. Owner (I think) came out, looked at it, said he thought they "had fixed it" and offered us to unhook and move to another site. The place is for sale, and it appears the current owners quit any repairs or upkeep a long time ago. - bigmike

This is all about location. The view is amazing! It's not far off the highway but far enough that you don't get all the noise. The RV sites are behind the Budget Host Derrick Motel, it was very easy to get to but parking was a little confusing. We arrived after dark and that made it more difficult. We saw a sign with an arrow pointing left down a driveway to the other side of the motel that said "RV Sites 6, 8,10,12,14,16" and an arrow pointing right towards the RV parking area that said "RV Sites 5, 7, 9,11,13,15." The sign is very confusing because there is no more parking down the driveway to the other side of the motel. Looking at the way the parking was laid out in daylight I imagine that the sign had probably been moved a little so that it was pointing down the driveway to the motel rather than pointing towards the circle driveway around the RV parking. I believe that the sign was meant to tell you to pull into the odd numbered sites from the left and to pull into the even numbered sites from the right. We didn't realize this when we were parking but we figured it out pretty quickly and it was easy enough to move over a spot. All The sites are nothing more than a slab of concrete with hook-ups to the side. The slabs are literally right next to each other but are staggered kind of like a checkerboard. That's why it would make sense to pull in from opposite directions. If everyone were to park going the same direction there would not be enough room, especially with slides. Even with everyone parked correctly I will admit that it is a little closer than other RV Parks that we have stayed at but it never ended up being a problem for us. We had full hookups, 50 amp service, cable, a strong Wi-Fi signal, and good water pressure. There is nothing fancy about the park but it was clean, a convenient location, and a great value for the area. Trinidad is a beautiful little town and if we are ever in the area again we will stay here. - tracyl

The owners of this park are very nice, friendly people. They make you feel welcome, right off the bat. Now for the bad. This is a very old park, very narrow roads and very narrow sites. Would have been nearly impossible for us to get in just one pull-through site without disconnecting the toad. Owners let us take up two sites. Most of the campers here are residents full time and some of the rigs are very old, with flat tires, weeds and some have put plywood around the bottom to keep out critters. None of the residents pick up after their dogs, we saw at least 5 different people that didn't pick up. Needless to say, you have to watch where you walk, as they even walk on other sites. It was quiet, no noise. We had 30 amp service, and the hook ups need some work as well. The park is in dire need of upgrading. Wish we could have rated this better since the owners were so nice. We would not stay here again unless improvements were made. - Vicki K
Sep 2015 - $20.00
This older park is the only one not directly on I-25, so it is quiet. They could use more sites with 50 amp and an upgrade on the Wi-Fi. This is a great place for exploring the area. Great Views. Right on the municipal golf course. - ronandpatti

We have this large rug in our living room and while it has been great, it is much lighter in color than what is pictured. It doesn't have the darker yellow tint that the picture shows, but in fact is much lighter - like a sand color. I had read this in many other reviews and was looking for a light rug so this worked out perfectly. Trust the reviews on this one. Our only issue with this rug is that it sheds, A LOT. We purchased the rug in November of 2012 and it is still shedding in June of 2014, though noticeably less than at the beginning. Because it is in a high traffic area near our couch, it needs to be vacuumed every few days as the fibers get everywhere. I'm hoping this continues to slow down, but I wasn't expecting this much shedding.
As others have said, it is more muted than the picture, and is a very beautiful rug. The yellow background is more of either sand or kind of a smokey lemon yellow, with the outside border a very light warm gray brown on the reddish side. The red is somewhere in between burgundy and brick, neither purple-ish nor orangy. The other big flowers are a muted orange yellow. Other colors are very light gray (smaller flowers) that has the optical illusion of feeling a bit blue next to the yellow, and a very muted gray green for smaller details. The background is solid and the border has a subtle weave look to it - a detail that makes the rug look very rich. I have it in the bedroom, and it is such a gentle relaxing color. The colors are pale so, though there is a lot going on in the pattern, it does not feel busy. As for smell and shedding. This seems exactly like the rugs I got from the same company two years ago. For the first six months they did shed some, but not a horrible amount for a rug this thick. As with any new wool rug, it does smell like wool, but frankly, the rubber/felt rug pad I ordered with it smelled more. Once I laid the rug over the pad, the smell went down a lot. After the first week the rugs I ordered two years ago only had a subtle wool odor with extreme humidity for the first year. I expect this might be the same or less, as this rug already seems to smell less from the package. Probably I will sleep in there tomorrow night. I can't wait - it's so lovely. Thanks Overstock! Another fabulous rug.
This is my first Overstock purchase. I was quite leery about spending several hundred dollars on a rug I hadn't seen in person as I am fairly discriminating. The rug is simply beautiful and the quality is that seen in more expensive items. Colors are subtle, tasteful, and there is no odor. It arrived all the way out to the West Coast in only 6 days.
Awesome rug. Got it yesterday. Perfect for our lving room. So soft.! Just a mild odor coming from a brand new rug.
This is the most amazing deal for a high-quality, handmade, wool rug one can find anywhere, short of a liquidation sale! The rug is gorgeous, exactly as described, and was a steal for a rug of this quality. I could not be more pleased, nor could I be more enthusiastic to recommend this item to anyone seeking quality at a bargain basement price! I am highly pleased with my purchase.
One of those things I didn't know we needed until my wife told me :-) It looks great though. High quality and very nice. Highly recommended.
This is a great rug. the colors are not as yellow as in the photo--more of a pale sand and beige with reds and rusts. it is a beautiful rug for the money.
i love this rug! it is very well made. the colors were pretty close to the description but definitely more vivid then when i saw it online. when i took it out of the bag it totally blew me away. it looks perfect in my room and i have received so many compliments. people can't believe i got this rug for the price. i have to vacum it everyday because of the shedding though. that is my only complaint.
This is a beautiful rug, ans was delivered in about four days after we ordered. The yellow is more of a gold color, and richer than the picture indicates. The pile is fairly deep, though we have another rug from China with a deeper pile. Our only complaint is that the rug, when new, throws off a huge amount of nap, and must be vacuumed daily for a couple of weeks to get rid of it all. Otherwise a very good value -- we shopped around alot before we picked this item, and it was about $150 less than anything similar we found in the stores.
This rug is even more beautiful in person! It is exactly what I wanted. It is thick and plush and is of great quality. There is a lot of fuzzing at first, but I'm sure that will go away with time. I would highly recommend this rug to anyone wanting something soft with a hint of color.
The rug came really quickly. It looked exactly as it did in the photo and just as described. This is the 8th rug I have ordered from Overstock and I have loved every one..The prices and quality are fabulous.
simply stated, a beautiful carpet at an unbelievably low price. I am completely satisfied!
rug was better than pictured, more color, more vivid. did shed quite a bit, but was a great value at the price.
The photo doesn't do it justice! It is not as intense in color as the photo but the written description is very accurate.
I wanted a lighter spring/summer color palate for the living room. This rug sets the tone perfectly. The quality is luxurious, thick and dense. The colors (ivory, gold, khaki) are subtle with the splashes of red - beautiful! This is definitely a top of the line product. I'm now considering a complementary rug from this line for an area adjacent to the living room. Very happy with this purchase!
I purchased this rug for my husband's office which has very dark hardwood floors and cabinetry. He rug is definitely an ivory color with pops of dark red. There is also a hint of what looks like gray shading that gives the rug a dingy look with the lights on, but it's not noticeable at all in regular daylight. This rug does she's which should be expected from a wool rug. I would give it five stars but part of the packaging allowed the rug to become exposed at some point and that area got pretty dirty, though not so bad to go through the trouble of returning. I would purchase it again.
Years later and this rug is still shedding immensely.
Nice neutral rug but sheds like crazy. The first few months I had this rug my allergies were horrible due to the shedding. The shedding has slowly tapered off.
Well worth the $$ ( great value for a wool rug). Had a few lumps - that eventually left. Minor shedding
I love that even though this is primarily a light colored rug, the colors are warm with little contrast between the background, which is a dark cream, and the main design, which is a warm grey and medium and darker golds. The red is a deep blood red, and is the primary contrast. Pattern does not feel overwhelming or busy, and does not have a "right" or wrong direction. Yes, lots of shedding, which is a moot point, as nearly all rugs do,, and some odor the first couple of days, which dissipated. I live on a lake and surrounded by lots of green, would have been easy to go with the white-washed, beach-y feel but this rug feels like sunshine on an overcast day. Perfect for us in the Northwest, not glaring sunshine, just some nice, muted warmth with a sophisticated and subtle design. I love it.

Good morning, ladies! I am new to this group and am hoping for some advice and would love to help you out with any advice I may have
On July 5, we had our 3rd MC (10 weeks) and had a D&C. Our first loss was 2/2012 @ 6 weeks and second was 4/2013 @ 4 weeks (IUI). Then we suddenly got pregnant just 2 weeks after the second miscarriage! Everything was going great with this pregnancy, except low progesterone, which I've had with each pregnancy. I was on Crinone twice a day and Prometrium twice a day. We discontinued progesterone July 29 and lost the baby within a week. Seems like too much of a coincidence to me! We've had all the RPL testing done with our RE except for the clotting, which I'm having in 3 weeks. We tried to do the chromosomal testing on the baby after D&C, but the results were inconclusive because there were no living cells.
Anyways, we definitely was to TTC again as soon as we can...I'm really confident (and so are our new doctors) that it is the progesterone, so we will start supplements right away next time. We've been told to NOT TTC for a cycle or two. When have any of you ladies TTC after a miscarriage? After our first MC, we tried for a year with no success and then did IUI. After the IUI loss, we conceived 2 weeks later! But the IUI MC was considered CD1. I do not believe I've had a CD yet after the D&C. Any advice would be appreciated
I wish you all the very best of luck in getting your rainbows!!!

A retired training specialist, I live in Kalamazoo, Michigan where I reflect and write and write and reflect.
Review by:
Bill Furlow
on April 11, 2011 :
Former Roman Catholic priest Joe Novara has written the least angry memoir about leaving the priesthood you're ever likely to read. If Novara is outraged by the church's child-abuse scandal, he keeps it to himself. If he felt somehow betrayed by those who educated him in the holy mysteries for a dozen years, he doesn't let on.
And yet Novara has written a most pleasant account of being sent to seminary in high school, remaining there through college and then going off among a select few for further theological training in Rome. Over the course of the narrative, he goes from being "totally engaged" with the church to having an "arm-length indifference" to it.
The tale doesn't spool out in chronological sequence but is told via a collection of stories – sort of a "Then-there-was-the-time" approach, which works fine. He doesn't say it straight out, but if I had to guess, I'd bet Novara at least occasionally wishes it had worked out differently. He wouldn't give up his wife and child from his post-priesthood life, of course, but I think he wishes he were still in love with the church.
Married now and with a grown daughter, he takes a nostalgic tour of the churches in his former precincts. He runs into an old friend, an admirable aging priest who still puts effort into his homilies for a weekday evening liturgy for a congregation too small to justify use of the sanctuary. A nun who had been the principal of Joe's high school still serves with the priest as "missionaries to Detroit's East Side, urban-renewed wasteland." She was now trying to establish and run an experimental high school.
As he leaves the church and his former mentors, Novara wonders whether he had "skipped out too soon – had left right after the bloom went off the romance of priestly work. Theirs has been a lifelong commitment. Mine was a kind of 'living together' arrangement – fine as long as it worked."
Novara doesn't ignore the priest child-abuse scandal. He writes of a seminary classmate who was great with kids. "Is my memory of Dave naïve? Would he have been the kind of priest to commit these awful crimes? All my instincts shout no. But I've learned I never can know for sure." It's one more thing that's changed from the church he thought he once had committed himself to.
One reason Novara's edges aren't sharper may simply be the passage of time. He became a priest in the '60s, a tumultuous time in the world and an exciting time for the post-Vatican II Catholic Church. He served two years in a Detroit parish before making his exit.
After ordination and his Michigan homecoming, he began to learn the realities of being a priest, that it's the ultimate 24/7 job, and you never get to leave the burdens at home. He also saw the relationship between priest and parishioner in a different light. "I thought I was going to be a personal trainer for a leaner, enlightened Catholicism," he writes. "The majority of my congregation simply wanted a massage therapist."
Whatever yearning for or curiosity about the road not taken, Novara ultimately is content with his choice to leave the church. "I so wanted to serve God and humanity on the macrocosmic, supernatural level. I came to find that atmosphere too rarefied. The scale of one on one friendship; the microcosm of my family has proved a more gratifying and seemingly successful strategy."

process my request. When I contacted them they told me that my credit card bank didn't authorized my transaction. I contated my credit card and I was told that nobody even tried to charge my credit card.
I think that the real reason that they didn't sell me a ticket that the price went up to 671 dollars .
Thanks GOD I have this money and I can pay this price, but when I contacted kayak.com I was not provided with rejection number from my credit card. They didn't provide me with their license number or with a contact information to U.S. department of transportation. I really worry that I provided them my personal information. I hope you can explain them how they should operate in the US and how they should be honest and open with their customers.
They didn't even offer me to sell a ticket on the higher price.

Chemistry is an online dating site. Chemistry.com is up to no good. They will milk every possible penny out of you and take advantage of the fact that you are in search of a suitable partner. And they always have someway or the other to cover their asses. Maybe an example would give you better insight.
I saw their TV commercial a few months ago and felt that it was appealing. Since I'm busy with work all the time, it is almost impossible for me to go out and meet someone decent. And in my opinion, office romance always ends up being a bad decision; especially if one has seniority over the other. I'm sure some of you can relate to this.
Coming back to the point, I saw the TV commercial and decided to give Chemistry a shot in helping me find my special someone. So I go to their website, and filled out their fancy questionnaire, and created my account. Based on my "personality", I got an automated list of potential matches populated in my account. I saw a few profiles that i found interesting. But when i tried to initiate contact, Chemistry wanted me to sign up as a member. Of course they did...
So i checked out the membership privileges and decided to give it a shot. There were different options where i could sign up for 6 months, 3 months or just a single month. So i decided to give it a shot for a month (even though paying monthly would be more expensive); and if i did find it worth the time and money, i would probably extend my membership for a couple more months. Those were my thoughts at the time.
So 3 weeks go by, and my experience with Chemistry was horrible. The first week I had shown interest in a few profiles and waited for a response. I e-mailed customer service and asked them why I hadn't been getting any responses. I could only think that it had to be some kind of technical error. I consider myself an intelligent and very attractive young man. No response from Chemistry's support team... Big surprise, eh?
Well before I began to blame anyone, I had to be sure that there was nothing more that I could personally do to better my luck on Chemistry. So i got a very close friend of mine to create her own free account and check out the profiles of other men, so she would get a feel of Chemistry for a few days. Then I got her to take a look at my profile, to get an opinion. She said that she found it way more appealing than most of the junk she saw. She said that all the pics that i had put up were appealing and the way I had described things on my profile would grab the attention of any girl.
Now i must take into consideration that she is a friend and probably exaggerated a little. So I decided to give Chemistry a little test. I stopped being picky and showed interest with all the potential matches that were being populated on my profile. After 25 days of membership, and interest shown in over 150 profiles (some of which i showed interest just to test the system, and not because they were appealing), i had got 0 responses. Well what do you know?
I e-mailed customer support 3 more times and got no response. There was a customer support 800 number that was only functional MON-FRI 9am-5pm. How convenient.. that's when everyone is busy with their jobs! And just when i'm thinking "oh well, that's 30 days and some money that I'm not getting back", i see on my online bank account that they charged me to use chemistry for yet another month! Annoyed as i was, I took time off mid-day to give them a call.
I get this nice rep who wanted to help me but couldn't. She said that it is clearly stated in the terms-of-use section when you sign up, that your membership gets automatically renewed every month. How convenient is that! I mean, who here actually reads the huge terms-of-use section when they sign up for any account? Everyone just checks the accept box and clicks on sign me up!
I have been had by Chemistry. And I only hope that filing this report might help others. Before I had signed up for chemistry, I personally did check the ripoff reports for any trash on Chemistry. There was none. So i actually thought they were with the good guys. Hah! Hardly... Chemistry is a waste of time. The service is horrible. (I am not saying that you will not find a suitable partner on chemistry. God bless you, if you do). And to top it all off, their customer service (both email correspondence and the 800 number) is the worst.
An honest corporation, would do the right thing, they would contact you, asking you if you wanted to continue being a member, before robbing your bank account off your hard earned money. Chemistry.com could care less about you. Its just an online front to get as much as money out of you as it can!

The Pinot Noir brings flavors of ripe, red berries and a supple, creamy finish. Rating Wine Spectator 90 points (Dec 15 2014)This subtle rose is notable more for balance and fine texture than the quiet flavor profile of ripe currant and berry fruit, candied kumquat, biscuit and ginger. A note of smoke-tinged minerality chimes in on the finish. Drink now through 2019. -AN Vinous 90 points (Jan 2015)(roughly 45% Pinot Noir, 35% Pinot Meunier and 20% Chardonnay, with 9 g/l dosage; LAH9V): Dark, vivid pink. Ripe red berries, rose oil and tangerine on the nose, plus a subtle note of toasty lees. Bitter cherry and berry skin flavors give way to softer raspberry in the middle, with a tangy blood orange nuance adding cut and lift. Packs a punch but shows very good clarity and delineation, finishing round, smooth and quite long. Ultimate Beverage Challenge 92 points (Jun 2014)Rose petal pink color capped by roiling mass of tiny bubble coral-colored froth. Lightly spiced aroma evokes scents of cranberry, faint red cherry, baker's yeast, red currant. Sour hard candy flavors of cherry and strawberry are refreshingly tart and mineral-like. Biscuity in the finish. Wine Enthusiast 88 points (Dec 2013)Salmon colored (and salmon would make a good pairing), this sparkling rose has deep flavors of toasty oak and black fruit, along with a swath of sweetness on the finish.

Those "Fees"
So I went to two bike shops: one in SD, one in OC. And I looked at their ninja 250s. Even though MSRP is like $4200, they put all these fees on it and comes out to $5000-5300 out the door. Are these fees legitiment or is just an excuse to put a higher price on these bikes? Well, every dealer has the final out the door price, but it lists all the fees like freight, set up, etc. I can understand if I can't take the tax off, but I really would like to not pay those dealer fees and pay MSRP if possible.
Because I know when my dad wanted to buy a Mercedes E55 AMG back 10 years ago, it was like $100,000 and my dad waited it out. And then the dealership came running back to him and offered $80,000 so shaved off $20 grand just to wait I think six months.
I just have no idea if something like a ninja 250 can be negotiated as easily. Because I assume more ninja 250s go out the door more often than Mercedes AMGs do. I really don't want to pay $5000 for my first bike, especially knowing craigslist people are offering 08s or above for around $3-4 grand. But then I never made a big purchase off craigslist so I'm kind of wary if it would be worth the risk to possibly later find out I have to pay alot to repair it to the point where I could have just bought a new one for just a little more.
Since I'm in no rush to get one now and I don't even have money, I would like to start looking now in hopes a dealer will be willing to give me a good deal. Maybe a used ninja 250 will come in and they call me and offer me a good price. Or possibly a big discount on gear if I have to pay all their stupid fees, more than 20% which both bike stores offered so I guess it's a normal discount nothing amazing.

Not sure you'd have a whole lot of haggle room on a bike like the Ninja 250. I've read in various places that dealers don't really pull in a lot of profit on the low priced starter bikes such as the Ninjette, at least from an individual sale standpoint. They're more a "volume" money maker.
Basically you have to understand that an HONEST dealer isn't going to be making a ton of money off of selling you a Ninjette. If you try to haggle them way down you might just end up shooting yourself in the foot and walking away empty handed. Meanwhile, they'll move that bike anyway due to their popularity. Don't think Ninja 250's tend to rot on the show room floor.
I've never bought a new vehicle from a dealer (only used), so I'm not real up to snuff on fees such as freight and set up in regards to what's reasonable. Perhaps someone that's more in the know can chime in and take it from here.
As for buying used off of Craigslist...
It's not that scary if you do your homework. There is a good check list for used bike purchasing here on this forum: http://www.motorcycleforum.com/showthread.php?t=97790

Considering this is your first bike, lower your standards a little. There are TONS of gently pre-owned 250's on Craigslist. A guy on the Kawasaki forums is working with girl that has a beautiful green 2012 with 48 miles on it, and he's gonna save a bundle vs. buying from a dealer. She's lowered her price to $4000, and the bike doesn't have a scratch on it.
Don't resign yourself to a brand new bike first time out. I'd hate for you to throw all that cash away on dealer fees just to find out you don't like the bike, or don't even like riding.

Now you know how they can advertise those low prices.
Even back before 2000 we had to sell against dealers that would advertise prices under cost, sometimes literally thousands below. They CAN'T do it. They load on shipping, handling, transport, and any other fee they can think of to build it up again. They figure once they have you in the door and in the seat you'll buy. Especially if you are looking at payments and not the total cost.
We used to give the full price and work from there. We were always competitive, as low or even lower than those discount dealers. Get your general range of price you want to pay, then go to a good dealership you would like to patronize and make your offer that you would like to do. Show them the money and see if they will do it. If nothing else you'll see what they will do.

I would not mind buying a used one. But seems the used ones sell fast. And I missed out on times dealerships had barely used ninjas because I had no money. But hopefully a used bike will turn up by the time I make around $4-5 grand and maybe have some left over.

I forgot to mention, back in 2006 Kawasaki had the Ninja 250 at $3399 at the start of the season. The dealers raised a stink about the higher MSRP than the other 250s, the cruisers. So Kawasaki cut the price to $2999... but didn't cut the wholesale price to the dealer. Talk about dealers complaints again! If the dealer sold the bike at full list with fees that actually covered the extraneous costs, they made a grand total of $150. Hardly enough to allow much price cutting. They'd have been better off to leave the price at $3399 and be able to shave $300 off the price - looks better for the customer. Just goes to show you have to be careful what you ask for... you might just get it!

Once the guy gets to know you, he'll take care of you when the time comes because he's got some emotional investment tied up in you (you're the eager, first time buyer, who isn't so sure about what to look out for, and he was like that once, too). When you're ready to buy and good Ninja 250 comes in, you'll be one of the first calls the guy makes.
But you just need to resign yourself to the fact that you're just not going to get a great deal on a used 250 at a dealership. Dealerships have overhead (rent, taxes, utilities, employee salaries, etc). Ninjas are a low margin, high volume product, and they are wildly popular with newer riders. Like someone said earlier, they have no reason to haggle because if you don't buy it the next guy will.
Personally, knowing your financial situation, I'd go the Craigslist route and save several hundo off the dealer price (the money you save could pay for the MSF and some gear).

Configuration Management Guidelines and Kit
- January 2011
- Quality Control Systems & Services
The new AS 9100C-2009 Aerospace Quality Management System Standard requires a process that describes methods and procedures to comply with Configuration Management requirements under clause 7.1.3-Configuration Management. A similar configuration management concept may be applied to ISO 13485, clause 7.1, 7.3 and 7.5.
The organization shall establish, implement and maintain a process for configuration management that includes as appropriate to the product:
a) Configuration management planning
b) Configuration identification
c) Change control
d) Configuration status accounting, and
e) Configuration audit
The following illustration shows a simple step by step configuration management process based on Configuration Methods, Procedures and Control Forms designed by QCSS:
1. QMS Standard and Customer order and/or product requirements
2. Product Design requirements (applicable if you have your own designed product)
3. Drawings. Standards, Specifications, Design baseline Metrics, Product Samples, etc.
4. Special Product and Process requirements, including critical product requirements determined by customer or organization
5. Regulatory or Statutory requirements, when applicable
Action taken:
1. Assign and document personnel authorized and responsible to carry out and control configuration management activities. (Organization Chart)
2. Review and identify (determine) product configuration requirement based on customer order or contract and similar input requirements. When applicable include product design requirements. (Drawings, Specs, D & D input, etc.)
3. Review and identify (determine) configuration risk level, e.g. nominal, critical and/or key product characteristics, affecting Form, Fit, Function, Safety and/or other risk criteria (ref. Risk Management standard clause 7.1.2). (Process Feasibility and Risk Evaluation Checklist)
4. Develop a documented Configuration Management Plan, addressing the appropriate configuration management and control processes. (Configuration Plan)
5. Develop and Implement Configuration Management Procedures and Control Processes.
1. Configuration Management Plan
2. Functional Organization Chart
3. Documented Policies and Procedures
4. A documented Work Instruction outlining in simple steps the operations to be taken to meet the configuration management plan and requirements
5. Control Forms that enable the management team to record and control product configurations including control of product variations
6. Have available procedures, methods and documentation to meet configuration management standard requirement and analyze for effectiveness
7. Meeting standard and configuration management system requirements, based on effective policies and procedures and control documentation
The process requirements stated in the AS 9100C standard under clause 7.2.1- Determination of Product requirements. Clause 7.2.2 Review of Product requirements, clause 7.3-Design and Development, clause 7.4.3-Verification of Purchased Product- clause 7.5.1-Production and Service Provisions, and clause 8.2.4-Monitoring and Measurement of Product are all part of meeting clause 7.1.3-Configuration Management requirements.
Once it is determined to go ahead with product realization, e.g. risks have been determined to be acceptable or are mitigated to an acceptable level as required under clause 7.1.2-Risk Management, the standard requirements as stated above and under clause 7.1.3-Configuration Management are utilized to control and manage the product and its configuration output. Variation Management Control will be part of this concept. SHOW LESS READ MORE >
- Introduction to Configuration Management Requirements.
Policies and Procedures:
1. Policies and Procedures for clause 7.1.3-Configuraton Management
2. Work Instruction: How to apply and implement Configuration Management Processes
1. Configuration Management Plan
2. Flow Chart for Interaction of Key Processes in Sequence, covering the key Standard clauses within a MFG environment (this chart also meets AS 9100C clause 4.1b interaction in sequence of key processes requirements)
3. Organization Chart
4. Inspection and Test Report for First Article, In Process and Final Inspection
5. Process Feasibility Review of Critical and Special Product Characteristics
Audit Checklists:
1. Audit Checklists addressing respective Standard requirements,
1. Documentation is saved on CD ROM for customization and for reference purpose
A practical straightforward approach to meeting Configuration Management requirements. This ready to use documentation will save you many hours of research and eliminates a trial and error approach. It is relatively easy to implement and to comply with.
This concept was developed by QCSS under the auspices of Gunther B. Gumpp, Senior Consultant and President of QCSS.

I'm working on the page above, and have it functioning quite well.
I'm restricting the page to show the latest 5 posts, which is forcing the page to display a button that says "Older Posts" at the bottom of the page. This is good, however, when you click the button it takes you to "Page 2" but displays the same 5 posts. Why would this be?
Should I be doing this differently?

This blog post is a collaboration between Peter Wannemacher and Nicole Dvorak, who also collaborated on Forrester's brand-new report on this topic.
As former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg once tweeted, "If you can't measure it, you can't manage it and you can't fix it." Digital executives at banks must understand and gauge the drivers of mobile banking in order to boost engagement. To help executives and their teams accomplish this, Forrester recently built a driver analysis model to identify which factors increase mobile banking app use (as measured by the number of days used and the average duration of a session). This model included two categories of potential drivers: perceptions and behaviors. The full results of this research are detailed in our new report here.
Here are three key takeaways from our research:
Posted by Clement Teo on the B2C Marketing Professionals Blog on July 29, 2015
In case you haven't noticed, the number of smartphone users in Asia Pacific has grown – we estimate that it breached the 1 billion mark in 2014. This is the first time that more people in the region used smartphones than feature phones.
When coupled with the fact that the region is also a leader in innovative messaging apps, such as WeChat, Line, and KakaoTalk, marketing professionals can start to see how Asia Pacific is ripening into a mobile-led commerce and marketing harvest – creating a commercial marketplace where users interact and trade and offering organizations growing sales and marketing opportunities.
However, many B2C marketing professionals today limit that potential by only focusing on promoting flash sales or discounts, as seen on the likes of WeChat and Line. Marketers must consider longer-term use cases to fully mine these apps' potential. Unless a messaging app user is specifically searching for and ready to buy a particular product or service, marketers who continue to pepper the app's chat room with meaningless discount messages will have wasted their investment. In addition, users will likely move to the next competitive (i.e., cheaper) offering when it comes along, running the risk of marketers facing a race to the bottom with cutthroat pricing.

Forrester has just published its 2015 US Mobile Banking Functionality Benchmark. The report reveals important insights about the mobile offerings from the five largest retail banks in the US: Bank of America, Chase, Citi, U.S. Bank, and Wells Fargo. Forrester clients can find the full benchmark report here:
All of these bank brands are relatively strong, providing customers with the services and functionality they've come to expect from mobile apps and sites. But perhaps the most significant takeaway from our research is that no single bank is leading: When it comes to mobile, the big US banks are achieving parity, not breakthrough.

Forrester has just published its 2015 Canadian Mobile Banking Functionality Benchmark. The report reveals important insights about the mobile offerings from the five largest retail banks in Canada: BMO, CIBC, RBC Royal Bank, Scotiabank, and TD Canada Trust. Forrester clients can find the full benchmark report here:
The Canadian mobile banking market has been highly competitive for years, ever since CIBC became the first Canadian bank to roll out robust mobile banking services more than five years ago. Our benchmark research shows that this remains true today: All of the banks have solid mobile banking functionality that meets customers' most common needs and expectations.
But different banks excel in different areas of mobile banking. CIBC and Scotiabank received the highest overall scores, each earning an impressive 75 out of a possible 100 in our benchmark. The two banks achieve mobile banking success with strong core banking features plus enhancements in key areas: For example, CIBC offers excellent product research tools, while Scotiabank recently launched a best-in-class help service within its mobile apps (see image below).

Apple Pay makes up more than $2 out of $3 spent on purchases using contactless payment across the three major US card networks. I agree with my colleague Sucharita Mulpuru that this is likely a big chunk of a small pie, considering the lower maturity of the mobile contactless ecosystem in the US. It's always better to look for absolute value. In this regard, PayPal processed $46 billion in mobile payment volume in 2014, up 68% over 2013.
Should marketers care about mobile wallets? Yes. Mobile wallets are not just about mobile payments. Consumers want a better shopping experience. Offering faster or more-secure payments is not enough; wallet providers will have to solve real pain points, such as giving consumers the ability to see what's on stored value cards at any moment in time, access loyalty points, or automatically receive digital copies of payment receipts. In particular, 57% of US online adult smartphone users are interested in having access to loyalty program points and rewards within a mobile wallet. Access to loyalty rewards from brands is the most wanted feature from consumers, and it's the one least integrated in mobile wallets today.

A year ago, I blogged about the fact that the app economy was blurring the lines and opening up new opportunities, with a lot of new entrants in the mobile space, be it with mobile CRM and analytics, store analytics, dedicated gaming analytics, etc.
Since 2010, more than 40 companies have raised about $500 million in that space! Watch it closely – consolidation will continue, as evidenced recently by Yahoo's acquisition of Flurry.
While a lot of innovation is happening on the supply-side, too many marketers have not defined the metrics they'll use to measure the success of their mobile initiatives. Many lack the tools they need to deeply analyze traffic and behaviors to optimize their performance.
Fifty-seven percent of marketers we surveyed do not have defined mobile objectives. For those who do, goals are not necessarily clearly defined, prioritized, and quantified. Only 38% of marketers surveyed use a mobile analytics solution! Most marketers consider mobile as a loyalty channel: a way to improve customer engagement and increase satisfaction. Marketers must define precisely what they expect their customers to do on their mobile websites or mobile apps, and what actions they would like customers to take, before tracking progress. Too many marketers focus on traffic and app downloads rather than usage and time spent. While 30% of marketers surveyed consider increasing brand awareness as a key objective for their mobile initiatives, only 16% have defined it as a key metric to measure their success!

I had the opportunity and privilege to get an early look at the new Amazon Fire phone. It delights in many ways, but I'll focus on the shopping experience enabled through Firefly.
For those who may not remember, Amazon put a dedicated physical button on the left hand side of the phone that launches directly into image recognition. If the image is recognized, then a web-based mCommerce experience launches. The user can then buy the product or it on a wish list, among other things. From there, the experience is more 'traditional Amazon.' The 'new' is the image, email, URL, etc. recognition.
Why is selling mobile phones important for Amazon? mCommerce in the US alone will add up to nearly $100M by the end of 2014. The new battleground for retailers is in the mobile moment – the point in time and space when a consumer pulls out her phone to get something she needs immediately and in context. Amazon's FireFly service facilitates two core types of mobile sales moments:

A New York Times Music Critic's Vintage Audio Collection
What's better than record-store recommendations from a music critic? Find out three all-time favorites and a peek inside the home offices of Amanda Petrusich, contributor to The New York Times, Pitchfork, and Spin (among others) and author of It Still Moves and Nick Drake's Pink Moon. Her collection of vintage home audio and vinyl collection is a music lover's dream come true...
How do you listen? Like all music nerds, I like vinyl, I like headphones. I like closing the curtains and having an all-encompassing, stupidly dramatic listening experience. If I'm listening for pleasure, I'm almost always listening to an LP. That's not practical, work-wise—these days, it's fairly common for critics to only get a watermarked stream of a high-profile record in advance, and then I have to listen through my computer, usually on headphones (I've also had to review records that I was only allowed to listen to in a conference room at the label's office, with the door closed).
If I get something on CD, I'll play it on my stereo (we have an old vintage Marantz receiver that's a little temperamental) or put it on my iPod and go for a run or ride around on the subway with it. I like to get it out of my office, if I can—let it breathe, let it move.
I've been writing a lot about record collectors lately—specifically, the guys hunting down old, pre-war blues 78s. For Christmas last year, my parents bought me this stunning, four-foot tall Edison phonograph, probably from the 1910s—it's the most beautiful thing in our home (besides, obviously, our cat Dominic). 78s only contain about 3 minutes (or less) of music per side, so I wind it up and just let it blow—honestly, it's incredible.
Do you have any favorite music websites/providers? I'm terrifically biased, since I've been writing for Pitchfork since (yikes!) 2003. But I will happily tell you my top three, all-time favorite record stores: the Princeton Record Exchange in Princeton, NJ; Shangri-La in Memphis, TN; and Bop Street Records in Seattle, WA.
Does music influence your work? All of the writing that I do is shaped by music in some way. For me, it's about trying to clarify or capture a feeling—that visceral, arresting, addicting thing that happens when you listen to your favorite song. I spend all day just trying to get some approximation of that experience down on the page, and most of the time, I totally fail.
Where do you find music recommendations? Who influences your musical taste? I get so much from other critics—you'd think I'd be sick of it, but I read an embarrassing amount of music criticism. Occasionally, one of my students will mention some mind-blowing thing I've never heard of. But I'm probably most influenced by my husband and friends. Sitting in a bar, arguing about records—that's where I learn everything, really.
If your work was a song or a musician, what or who would it be? This is a great question, but I don't know how to answer it without sounding like a giant moron. I love music too much to think that anything I can do with a notebook and pen even comes close. Sad but true!

FILM REVIEW: "Saint John of Las Vegas"
'Saint John of Las Vegas' no divine comedy
Published: Friday, January 29, 2010 at 8:00 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, January 28, 2010 at 5:07 p.m.
The deadpan comedy "Saint John of Las Vegas" opens with Steve Buscemi walking into a Vegas convenience store, plopping down an envelope full of cash and asking for a thousand lottery tickets. "Why not?" he asks with a mixture of defiance and despair.
Film facts
"Saint John of Las ," an IndieVest Pictures release, is rated R for language and some nudity. Running time: 85 minutes.
The film opens Jan. 29 in limited release in New York and Los Angeles. For showings and ticket prices, call 1-888-AMC-4FUN or visit www.movietickets.com or www.fandango.com.
Two stars out of four.
Why not? Well, for starters, there's no lottery in Nevada. It's a small detail, yes, but indicative of a movie that tries so hard to echo Dante's "Inferno" that it neglects to create characters and a story that can hold our interest for even the film's scant 85-minute running time.
Buscemi plays John, a guy who, apparently had a great run of luck in better days, but is now confined to a cubicle under the harsh fluorescent lighting of an Albuquerque insurance office. He files claims, logs calls and sort of enjoys some kind of weird office flirtation with Jill (Sarah Silverman), a chirpy co-worker obsessed with smiley faces.
An opportunity for something better arrives when John's nutty boss (Peter Dinklage) sends him and the company's best fraud investigator, Virgil (Romany Malco), on the road to look into a dubious car accident just outside Vegas. John doesn't want to go — Vegas did a number on him — but he doesn't resist too hard, either. Maybe he knows it's time he faced his demons.
But first-time writer-director Hue Rhodes never tries to fill in the blanks about John's past or his present fears and compulsions. He's too eager to send him on a superficial road trip through Oddsville, U.S.A., where John meets a wheelchair-bound stripper (Emmanuelle Chriqui), a group of desert nudists and a salvage-yard owner named (groan) Lucypher.
None of these encounters are remotely interesting, save for a conversation John has with a tow truck driver (John Cho) who moonlights as a carnival human torch. The Torch's suit has gone haywire, causing him to burst into flames every 20 seconds as he waits for the fuel tank to empty. The Torch doesn't seem to mind, though, except that he could really use a smoke.
That scene is such an inspired piece of surrealism that you wonder why Rhodes settles for the mundane for the rest of the movie. Buscemi can do droll desperation with the best of them, but the underdeveloped John remains a cipher throughout the film. Silverman is wasted as the sweet contrast to John's weary fatalism.
As a portrait of one man's journey toward dignity, "Saint John" isn't bad enough to create its own special circle of hell. As a comedy, though, it's anything but divine.
