All Australian states will be forced to use purified waste water for drinking if the current 100-year drought continues, said the premier of Queensland state on Monday, after being the first to approve recycled water.

And your implication is ???
Given the general agenda of this site I expect that you think that this is some sure sign that Global warming is upon us but the reality of the Australian experience is that we have very regular droughts here, the shortage of water in the dams of south eastern Queensland has far more to do with a rather rapid increase in our population and the subsequent extra demand on a limited resource than climate change. http://iainhall.wordpress.com/

LODI - Tokay High School's Science Bowl team is heading to Washington, D.C., to represent the Central Valley in this year's national competition.
San Joaquin County teams swept the top three spots.
Tokay High's purple team won the regional tournament Saturday in Modesto for the seventh time in 10 years, securing an all-expense paid trip to Washington in April.
"There's nothing like competing in Washington," Tokay High coach Susan Heberle said.
Tokay not only took first place but second place in the regional as well, Heberle said. Lincoln High School finished third.
The winning team includes players senior Daniel Connelly and juniors Andrew Moton, Ana Vigueras, Sally Chen and Simaron Dhillon.
Science Bowl regional coordinator Mike Zweifel said St. Mary's High, the only one other San Joaquin County high school that competed Saturday, did not advance from the round robin into the double eliminating tournament and did not place.

I will let you know something else... he harassed and called his own girlfriend who had to moved off Long Island and moved to Florida to get away from him. This sicko would call her and call her and call her to a point she threatened to contact the Sheriff's Department in Florida. I have also obtained a restraining order against him. He is a stalker in every sense of the word. I was afraid for my well being knowing what this sicko has done in the past. Stay away from this man. He comes across smooth and polished, then you see the depravity in him. If you let it go, he will bring it to the next level and will continue to increase his depravity on you. He is famous for setting up movie cameras in the bedroom, or taking photos of you when you least expect it. Then, you are subject to treats of exposure by him. Stay away from this sick b*****d. His whole world is porn, x rated movies, swapping, and things normal people just don't do.
I still have the restraining order in effect and will RENEW it as it gets closer to expiring. I am afraid of this man. If you have any sense, stay away from Gary Catti, your life may be in jeopardy, let alone your dignity.

#1 Author of original report
AUTHOR: j - (United States of America)
SUBMITTED: Friday, May 11, 2012POSTED: Friday, May 11, 2012
According to our investigation, there is in place an ORDER OF PROTECTION again CATTI by his former girlfriend. You can obtain copies of this document by writing to:
Kings County Family Court
Records Department
330 Jay Street
Brooklyn , New York 11201
( 347 ) 401 - 8600
All requests on this case must be done in writing to the Court.
It is believe the Plaintiff retained the ORDER OF PROTECTION against CATTI for stalking and other complaints filed against CATTI who stalked the plaintiff after she left the defendant ( CATTI ) .
Catti has had prior problems with another female who resided in Shirley , Long Island and was forced to leave Long Island and moved to Florida. Information obtained show CATTI making calls to the other female in a desperation attempt to win her back. The other female wanted NO PART of CATTI and the continued calls to Florida continued from CATTI.
This is the second case found on Gary R. Catti who seems to be or wish to have total control of his female relationships he enters into. This bizarre behavior goes beyond " controlling of his associates " and should be considered abnormal to say the least.
Use caution when dealing with anyone who is a control freak. It may cost you more than your freedom and right to privacy.

"Wheat vodkas tend to be very light, and will have notes of fresh citrus. Because wheat is a delicate grain, wheat vodkas need less distilling. I find that any wheat vodka that's distilled more than three times is a waste of time. In general, wheat makes for a very approachable sort of vodka, a good all-rounder, very crisp and clean."

It's #MalalaDay! Celebrate Malala Yousafzai By Watching Her Inspiring U.N. Address
Today is Malala Yousafzai's 16th birthday and in case you're not totally sure who she is, let us fill you in.
Today is Malala Yousafzai's 16th birthday—and to celebrate, the Pakistani teen who was shot in the head by the Taliban last year for her publicly supporting education for girls, is having a real, legit Super Sweet 16, speaking at the U.N. about her message of peace and free education for all children.
"I speak not for myself but for those without voice ... those who have fought for their rights—their right to live in peace, their right to be treated with dignity, their right to equality of opportunity, their right to be educated," she said. (Watch her speech below—and just try not to cry.)
As for being shot, Malala had this to say: "Nothing changed in my life except this—weakness, fear and hopelessness died." Talk about inspirational, huh?
Luckily, her memoir, I Am Malala, published by Little, Brown, comes out this fall, so we can continue being motivated by this incredible young woman. Happy Birthday, Malala.

Crash course in Seattle housing market
I'm ready to dip a toe into the madness of the Seattle housing market. I'm looking for a 3br anything (condo or house) in North Seattle. I've been stalking Zillow, it looks maybe kinda sorta possible to find something we could afford. I have no idea what to do next. [more inside]

Home inspector?
I've owned my home for ~28 years. My ex-husband and I never hired a home inspector (We had little common sense at the time). I just brought a company to my home for an estimate on a flooded basement, and apparently the state of our house is far worse than I imagined. I'd like to know what else is wrong with our house; is a home inspector the answer? [more inside]
Housing and hotels in Vancouver, BC!
I'm going to be in Vancouver for about 7-8 months, and I'm hoping to get recommendations for a short stay for the first month.

Porch columns with interior drainage?

I have a bunch of (mostly small) jobs that I need done around the house, and I'm trying to figure out how many different tradies I need to hire to do them: installing a bathroom vanity; replacing about ten tiles in the shower; installing a new pendant light; servicing the ducted gas heating; installing underfloor insulation (although I'm considering DIYing this); and removing half a staircase. Do I need to hire a different person for each task, or can they be batched somehow? (I assume the tiles and vanity can be done by the same person at least). [more inside]

Help me not wreck my house.
We love our house, an 85-year-old home that was extensively remodelled, preserving much of the charm, including original A-grade fir hardwood floors, but with many improvements, including plumbing and wiring. The outside is the original cedar siding, which was sanded/filled/primed/painted about seven years ago. Now that it's in need of repainting, I'm considering whether I should paint or replace. Don't know if this wrecks the look/value of the house. Hope me! [more inside]
Ideas for building a self-sufficient, environmentally friendly home?
I have this pipe dream of settling down somewhere extremely rural and building a self-sufficient, environmentally friendly home. I've got a lot of ideas floating around in my head, but I'm always looking for new ones. How would you go about setting up such a dwelling? (Or how did you do it, if you've done it yourself?) I'm ideally looking for ground-up plans, but all ideas are welcome. [more inside]

I've got the track I hear in the background here (DJ W!ld - All About You), but I've not heard any remix with this vocal overlaid, I'm wondering what it is and where it's from and googling for the words doesn't help much. It starts at 9:30 (Soundcloud link will autoplay)
house hunting / living style to pursue as an introverted remote worker
I work from home and have an opportunity to move soon. I enjoy fresh starts and wondering about buying a house in the sticks somewhere and living the good life. I've recently cut my last geographic tie, and after a spell travelling, wondering if anyone has some insight/anecdata into living styles that might suit someone for whom commute is not an issue. [more inside]
How could we modernise this living room?
We are thinking about bidding on a house at auction next week that has a very unusual living room. My husband thinks it can be modernised to be amazing, but both of us are struggling to see exactly how. Obviously the flooring and light fixture would be changed, but to what? Does anyone with better design sense than us have specific suggestions or links to similar looking spaces? I think I'd feel a lot better about bidding for this place if I had a clearer idea of what we could do with it. [more inside]
Houseguest karma
I've had my share of regrettable houseguest behaviours in my early 20s (I am 30 now), so I am choking this up to karma. But I am curious: I've had consecutive houseguests in their late 20s/early 30s who are fantastic people but rough-around-the-corner as houseguests. Is this a generational thing? Is it particular to the artsy/academic type that I hang out with? How do I politely tell them "I consider you a good friend, and that part won't change. I am unhappy with [behaviour] in my home, so if that doesn't change I can't host you again."? [more inside]
Is a whole house fan worth it?
With the summer about to come on strong, we're considering installing a whole house fan in our newly bought house (Los Angeles area). Before we take the plunge, I'd love to hear from anybody who has one, preferably in a climate like ours -- the good, the bad, and the ugly. Worth it or not? [more inside]
A very, very, very fine house.
We are buying our first home (yay!). Every time we go over there to poke around, I notice another thing that we don't deal with in our current four-unit apartment building. What are some things we need to buy? What are the things we need to do right away? Any tips you wish you would have known? Any thoughts on order of operations -- can we move as soon as there are beds, or when the internet arrives, or what? Please help us rehome. [more inside]
My house stinks
My apartment started smelling like garbage last week and I can't make it go away. What is happening?! [more inside]
Little sister is watching you: roll-your-own/smart home security
So, last night we apparently interrupted some burglars. The police were pretty negative about traditional home security systems (which we didn't have anyway), and I'm interested in either a DIY system or a modern digital system. Googling turns up a lot of things that appear to be not ready for prime time (e.g. Canary). But surely there are Mefites with good suggestions. Help? [more inside]
Reporting a house insurance claim 101
While I was away, someone caused some minor damage to a corner of the house with their truck (chipped/cracked masonry, missing mortar, etc). My neighbour dealt with the initial incident, and I have the culprit's insurance details, and will be initiating a claim. Having not claimed on my house policy before, do I need to contact my insurance as well? Or do I just go through the insurance of the person who caused the damage? Thank you!

New House - decommission old oil tank or let it be?
We're in contract on a 1940 house in Seattle, Washington, USA, and the inspector said there used to be oil heat. There's no visible sign of a tank, and no records of a tank being decommissioned (city records for decommissioning or removal of old tanks only go back to 1997). We're trying to decide if it's worth looking for the tank and having it decommissioned if one is found, or if it's OK to just leave it be. [more inside]

Vacation house in San Diego for a BIG family
I've need to find a house in San Diego for my family vacation. This means 4 adult couples, 3 kids and 2 toddlers. I know about VRBO but the last time I was in San Diego was 10 years ago and stayed at a tiny hotel downtown, so I don't really know what areas to look at that would be nice for a summer vacation.

Omg spring is coming!!
After a rough winter, spring is ineluctably approaching. As the snow melts, I'm discovering that a number of the bushes are much worse for wear, the front brick path has heaved and needs to be re-set, paint is peeing, gutter downspouts and lots of wood trim are in need of replacement--the list goes on. And at some point, we'll need some grading work and other drainage projects. Plus (eventually) seeding the lawn and general cleanup. What's the best approach to thinking about and ordering these projects? [more inside]
adding a concrete barrier to stone foundation
Our house in Boston was built sometime around 1900. It has a stone foundation that is mostly intact and has been kept in fairly good repair. Unfortunately, there are some holes/gaps that need to be repaired along the front wall of the foundation, under our brand new deck. They can't access the holes properly without removing most of this new deck. As an alternative, the masons have suggested pouring a small thin layer of concrete in front of the stone wall. Is this a reasonable approach? Anything we should be considering? [more inside]

There is a building in Woodley Park, DC that looks completely normal from the front and burnt-out and abandoned from the back.

Best way to sell a house without improvement, staging, or agents?
My mother is moving out of her house and wants to sell it with as little fuss as possible. She doesn't want to make any improvements, hire a realtor, have 'open houses,' or have any protracted negotiations. Her plan is to just take the best offer of a "fast cash buyout" home-buying company. That sounds like inviting a ripoff to me, but we both know very little about selling houses and don't know of any alternatives. [more inside]

Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9Pocket-lint
It's time to reboot the tablet. Right now, the same word applies to everything from 6-inch jumped-up ebook readers to hulking great 10-inch slabs of glass. Pocket-lint is drawing a line in the sand: everything 9-inches and up is a tablet, everything smaller is a tablette – and here's one of the finest, the 8.9-inch Samsung Galaxy Tab, er, 8.9.
Like Samsung's original (7-inch) Galaxy Tab, the sleek 8.9 screams to be picked up, fondled lightly and tossed into a bag. It's smart and powerful, with 1.2GHz dual-core silicon running Honeycomb 3.1 and Samsung's impressive TouchWiz skin. It's got a superb screen and some fun motion features, too.
But with no real USB or HDMI ports, weak cameras and a scarily high price tag (£20 more than the iPad 2 and just £70 shy of its 10.1 big brother), can the 8.9 persuade today's big screen tablet users that what they really want is an ultra-portable tablette?
Don't tell the PRs but our first test with any new tablet involves both hands and a modicum of torsion. Try a gentle flex test on the metal-backed iPad 2 and you get zero motion, nothing, nada. Try it on the Galaxy Tab 8.9 and there is the faintest hint of a creak. It's absolutely nothing to worry about but it is what happens when you build your tablette with a casing of brushed plastic instead of the shiny cold stuff.
Otherwise, build quality is top notch. The screen bezel is the same size as the iPad's, although with a touch more gloss to it. Unlike the iPad, the default orientation of the Tab 8.9 is landscape. The power and volume rockers are on the top edge towards the left, and the front webcam beneath them is slightly offset to the right.
Size and weight are pretty much perfect for one-handed use. This Tab is a fraction of a millimetre thinner than Apple's tablet but weighs about 150g less, tipping the scales at a solid and comfortable 447g. Screening room
Like many new Android tablets, the Tab 8.9 has pixels to spare. Its 1280x800 panel has a higher resolution than the iPad 2 and much higher pixel density (169ppi vs 132ppi). And because of its widescreen (16:10) format, the screen is only 5mm shorter along its long edge than Apple's tablet. This means that web pages and email are just as easy to read, even if they sometimes feel cut off at the knees.
The multi-touch tech is fast and responsive, and Samsung has added two new motion-sensitive features. Plop both thumbs in the screen while reading a web page and you can zoom in or out by tilting the Tab towards or away from you. It's a nice effect but really no easier than pinching to zoom – and it still needs two hands.
The other motion feature is even less useful: press and hold an icon then tilt the tablette from side to side to scoot it through the five home screens.
A touch of wizardry
The Tab 8.9 is running Honeycomb 3.1 but with Samsung's impressive TouchWiz skin on top, you would be forgiven for thinking you had an early preview of Ice Cream Sandwich. TouchWiz includes such Android 4.0-esque features as resizable widgets (full marks to Samsung for NOT calling them 'wizgets'), a scrollable multi-tasking list and easy screenshots (here with a soft button).
The 8.9 has five home screens with the usual swish animated transitions between them. Tap the middle of the system bar at the bottom of the screen to pull up a mini apps tray containing a task manager, calendar, clock, memo pad, calculator and music player. These pop-up Windows-style over anything in the screen - nice.
Another thoughtful addition is an expanded notification area with one-tap toggles for Wi-Fi, GPS, mute and screen rotation, although not Bluetooth. You can also control the brightness from here.
Samsung's Social Hub widget aggregates feeds from Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn. It manages to efficiently extract the fun from functional but will do if you really can't be bothered to switch between separate apps. Other Hubs - Music and Reader - are a pale reflection of pre-loaded Google and Amazon apps for streaming tunes and downloading ebooks.
The 8.9's 1GHz dual-core Tegra silicon keeps things moving swiftly. There are rarely lags even when several apps are open, graphically intense games are running or there's music streaming in the background. Video in particular looks fantastic. However, we did have several crashes during our test and the Android Market widget seemed particularly flaky.
Voice search worked well enough and the Tab 8.9 comes with no fewer than five different keyboards, although once you've switched to the ever-awesome Swype you'll probably never look back.
The rear camera is a low res 3MP affair but does a surprisingly good job capturing colour and detail, and there's a small LED flash for indoor portraits. The front-facing 2MP web cam is better than most but still very grainy in low light. I wonder how long it will be before a tablet manufacturer realises that it's more useful to have a LED light on the front, for video chat, rather than round the back where it never gets used? In video mode, 720p capture is just fine, apart from very weak audio. Shutter delay is around a second.
For music playback, you have the choice between loud, tinny sound through the built-in speakers or mushy audio through the supplied in-ear headphones. To be honest, the speakers aren't terrible for listening to the occasional song or YouTube video, and come into their own for speech - either radio or video chat via Google Talk (pre-installed).
Bits and pieces
We're not sure how much use GPS is without 3G, but the sat nav was sensitive enough to lock on indoors. It didn't seem to hammer battery life, which was good at around six to seven hours between charges. The 8.9 has a useful power use graph in Settings, an automatic power saving mode that kicks in at low levels, and an ambient light sensor to adjust the screen brightness.
Apparently, the world has completely embraced DLNA wireless sharing, as the Tab 8.9 has no HDMI or other video output. Its only port is an Apple-alike custom USB connection that serves to recharge (via its wall socket adaptor only) or transfer data to and from your PC.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 is impossible to dislike. Unlike some Honeycomb tablets (or tablettes even), it doesn't make a virtue out of being confusing or crashing randomly. It's well made, light and extremely portable, with a screen that's big enough for web, email and films, but small enough to hold one-handed.
Samsung's TouchWiz skin is genuinely useful, and I'd even think twice about upgrading to Ice Cream Sandwich if it meant losing the Mini Apps Tray and pumped-up notifications. Videos and games look great and, if you use your own headphones, the Tab makes a decent music player, too.
So why no five stars? The problem isn't the Sammy's average cameras, its lack of 3G or even the absent HDMI port. The problem is its price. At nearly £400, the Tab 8.9 should be virtually perfect: a cut-down, slim-line tablette to complement the macho power of the Tab 10.1 or the iPad 2.
The Tab 8.9 is a great device that showcases the benefits of a smaller, more efficient screen but it needs to a touch more magic to deserve its price-tag.

Great campground which is well taken care of by the hosts in the park. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Sites are large and well spaced. We will definitely come back here again and stay longer next time. (We only stayed 2 nights this visit.) - Bobbi1948

Great get place to get away from the heat of Phoenix and Tucson. Lots of room between sites. Easy in/out with 40' Motorhome. It's a NF campground which is run buy Thousand Trails. Very unlike the normal TT camp grounds. They do honor the senior pass. I don't know if they did this because they were very busy, or it is a normal procedure. But they assigned the first come sites on our visit. Those who have large 5th wheels and motorhomes know the benefit of this. Will stay here again. - Alfa 40

Beautiful campground, but needing some attention. With NPS Senior discount a non-electric site is $9 and electric (reservation only) is $11. 14 days in 30 max stay is enforced. One of the few campgrounds in Northern AZ that has some electric hookups, about 25 of the 120 sites have 30A connections. All sites with electricity are by reservation only. About half of the sites are walk-in, but in peak season getting there from Sunday - Wednesday is best. Additional fees for showers coming soon, and dump station fee now is $7 even for registered campers. Water supply was full of dirt and rust particles, so filter anything you put in your tanks; well is failing and is supposed to be replaced. Single shower building has M & W showers and flush toilets. Otherwise pit toilets are available reasonably close to sites. Ice and firewood can be purchased, and hosts were willing to drop it off at your site. Fairly close to several fishing lakes and lots of other NFS campgrounds close by and distributed campsites in the forest. Ranger talks and walks at least weekly in peak season. Nice trail to Sink Hole and can continue on to the edge of the Rim for breathtaking views. - JnKnD

Would have given it a higher rating except for the noisy highway right behind out unit. Very clean park, very friendly with lots of small dogs and a great dog area. Clean restrooms but old and only one shower and one bathroom. Friendly hosts and nice for a night or two while exploring the area. Cool temps and lots to see. Plenty of restaurants around the area and very good. Ate at Junes and the Red Onion and both were very good. Would stay again if we could get away from the highway. Hookups were placed right, however sites not real level. - lgvig

New owners. Do not accept Passport America. Didn't know that until after we were set up and the spouse went to pay. Interior roads are asphalt and sites very small gravel that sticks to shoes and is carried inside the RV. Wi-Fi is free and worked. Nothing on the TV antenna. All back-in sites. Did like that no wood burning fire pits were allowed. We were in site #5. Near the highway so was some road noise. The water and sewer connections were on the wrong side. Had to run them under the trailer. Sewer was up hill and the connection was in at an angle. Somewhat easy in and out with our 60' combo. - Tallboy

We spent a month here. Many people spend the whole season here. The sites are very large. Our site (#4) was near the road, but the traffic noise did not bother us. The rate listed is for the site only. We had to pay a deposit of $75 for electric. At the end of our stay we got part of that back.
The staff is very friendly and helpful. There are many activities offered.
There are small grocery stores in the area, but we ended up driving to Show Low often (approx. 40 minutes). - sunnyaz

Rate is Passport America. Wi-Fi is available by extra fee, $15.00 a week for one computer. This is a nice park but some sites would be hard to get into due to the trees. Satellite may also be difficult. This is mainly a monthly park with long term seasonals. There is a dollar store right across the street. 30 miles from main shopping area. Beautiful park and would stay again. - goofy50

This is a VERY basic RV Park. Only 30 AMP available, and that was between 102 and 112 volts. It is a long way from shopping: 30 miles to Safeway/35 to Wal-Mart. Lots of scenic areas within about 40 miles drive, and cool weather in the summer. Limited washer/dryer (2 each)and limited clubhouse. Price was right at $0 under Resorts of Distinction. We probably won't return. - Kent Savage
Aug 2007 - $8.00
We used RPI for this park. The term "resort" is used loosely, there is a clubhouse but no other amenities. Electric voltage was low. It was peaceful and scenic, but a 25 mile drive to Show Low. There was a phone for dialup internet, but no Wi-Fi and cell service needs an antenna. Management was friendly and helpful. - mcw50

If you are looking for a smaller adult orientated park with lots of shade and newer utilities (50 amp, sewer, and water), that is located right next to National Forest: this is your lucky day.
This quiet park is privately owned by a nice and very helpful couple who will assist you in any way they can. The sites are spacious, contrary to what other unreasonable reviewers have written.
Seriously, this is rim country. If you are expecting a huge flat parking lot because you don't know how to drive your rig, don't blame it on the park. Go to Kansas. We have stayed here three times with a 33 ft 5th wheel with no problem maneuvering into and out of sites.
There is good spacing between most sites. The gravel roads in the park are well maintained. There are shower and laundry facilities.
Happy hour at 4pm nearly everyday (BYOB) where good folks, including the owners sit and relax and talk about another beautiful day in the high country. The prices here are reasonable. Stay for a night or several months, you won't be disappointed. - TD700

Small campground located adjacent to the Sitgreaves National Forest. You can walk out of the campground into the National Forest.
Sites are small, but have lots of shade. Mostly seasonal residents, all we encountered were friendly and nice. Owners helped us squeeze our 40 ft. bumper pull into their biggest site- I do not think we would have fit in any of the others.
Started with a week stay, then were able to pay the difference for a month. Owners were friendly and helpful. - pclchicagox

The rate of $15 is the nightly average of $350 per month plus electric. We stayed one month to be close to family and Forest Service for off road riding. Older park, very VERY tight sites, most are more appropriate for tents than rv's. WiFi did not reach our 1st site so we moved to the only other place owners would let us stay. So small I had to cut tree branches and move rocks to fit my 25' 5th wheel on the site. Other sites available but they would not let us have one. Owner was busy so handed me a ladder, a hand saw and pruners & told me to cut whatever I needed, & move rocks (boulders) if I needed to. (I did). (I should have given them a bill for my hour + 1/2 labor!) Park sits in a valley so Verizon mobile didn't work. If we had not prepaid and locked into the month we would not have stayed. The laundry machines are in need of replacement. The owners are nice, but nice people do not make a comfortable park. In 25 years of RVing, this was the hardest place we have ever been in for parking the rig on the site. The sites are so tight there isn't even a good walking path unless you walk Out of the park. Even the sites for the "big rigs" were cramped with barely room to open slides. Caution to you if you like to be able to "spread out", set out your awning and chairs and move around your RV. (Our awning would not open all the way. Not enough room) Upon leaving we were given our electric bill, which included a $7.00 "hook up" fee. Really? The electric bill seemed excessively high, since we didn't use our A/C much at all. As you can see, we were not happy campers. - wdwrew

We stayed in a site with electrical hookups. The sites are roomy, pretty level asphalt fingers off a paved loop. The park is beautiful, well maintained and a wonderful place to stay. The hosts are helpful and friendly and keep everything neat and tidy. Squirrels and Blue Jays visit and provide entertainment. The park is at about 8,000 feet in elevation on top of Arizona's Mogollon Rim and can be a bit chilly at night if you stay there early or late in the season. It is closed in the winter. A really cool, relaxing place to stay in the pines. We stayed in a fifth wheel. - AZCamperGal

The Best of Old Fashioned Camping - with electric! The hospitality people were amazingly friendly and yet non-intrusive. The campground was neat and clean. The outhouses - well, they were outhouses, odor and all. There are very nice flush toilets at the shower building. I do advise to camp across the road or a space or 2 away from outhouses. There are only 4 pull-through spaces which are really roomy. There are also several long back in spaces. All electric spaces are in Loop A. Go to www.recreation.gov to reserve space during the high season. October was nice weather and walk-in only. We got there Friday morning and were able to choose a pull-through space. Loop A filled up pretty good by Saturday morning. Perhaps being just 2.5 hours from the east Valley is the reason - it's close and easy. We specifically asked about this item: Contrary to a previous review, there is only 1 tag per vehicle. It goes in the tow vehicle or toad if you choose to leave the park. It does not stay with your trailer or tent. But this is true for all the National or State parks that I've been in. Also, being a National Forest, the stay limit is 14 days. As much as I almost hate to share it, it was a weekend in heaven. Relaxing, peaceful (with the sounds of children laughing in the background), quiet, dark & starry. Take the time to walk the .7 mile to see the Sinkhole area. You may even get lucky enough to see some of the many elk in the area. For those looking for the RV park feel with entertainment and stores within walking distance, this isn't it. There's a small local store a mile up the road in Forest Lakes and a great restaurant across the street, but that's about it for really close businesses. However, if it is a "camping" session that you seek, complete with fires in the fire pits at night, this place is tops in my book! You can buy firewood at the gate for $6 a bag and ice for $2. There is a dump station by the entrance as well as potable water if you need to fill up or re-fill during your stay. What more could you need? Take a good book and a comfy chair and plug in the coach for a truly rewarding weekend (or week if you can). - tbone4

This is a forest campground, not an RV Park, just wanted to make that clear from the start. Only 32 of the sites provide electric hookups, and none of them are 50 amps. About half of the spots in this campground can be reserved on-line. The rest are available only on a walk-up basis. I believe all of the spots in Loop A have electric hookups; Loop B has no electric hookups. Canyon Point is the only forest campground in the Payson, AZ area that offers electrical hookups, so this campground is very appealing to many and difficult to get reservations on holidays and weekends. You have to make them way ahead of time. This is beautiful forest, seems to be frequented by very friendly, quiet, respectful campers (not the party crowd), far enough away from the highway (although you can still hear a loud truck now and again), nice shaded spots, and easy access to a general store a couple miles up the highway, 2 popular lakes within 5-10 miles distance - Willow Springs Lake and Woods Canyon Lake and absolutely breath-taking views of the Mogollon Rim along Forest Service Road (FSR) 300 also known as Rim Road. Pros: Beautiful, spacious camp sites in a relatively quiet campground. We saw some big rigs in this campground, although I don't know if they have size limits. I'm not too familiar with electricity requirements on bigger rigs, but I know they don't have 50 amp electric hookups at this campground. Campground is very close to many activities and scenery. General store within 2 miles in Forest Lakes. Showers and flushing toilets available at the front of the campground (although they're not very clean), along with ice and firewood. There is a free non-potable and fresh-water fill-up area along with an RV dump area at the front of the campground, so this is an awesome amenity for a forest service campground. We took our 6 gallon refill jugs to the refill station a few times to get free water for our pop-up trailer tanks. Cons: $25 per night seemed a little steep for an Arizona campground, with no water hookups, but I guess one man's steep pricing is another man's bargain; and if you consider the free water at the front of the campground, the $25 per night might not be so bad. Some of the staff seemed very unorganized and scatter-brained and one was incredibly rude. This rude woman was confused, and just wasn't doing her job right. I asked her what other sites were available and she jumped all over me about how we had reserved a specific site # and if we wanted another, we'd have to cancel and pay a penalty, blah, blah. Wow, that lady had some anger management issues! We were unfortunate to always have to deal with her instead of the other friendly, knowledgable staff. This woman didn't give us a ticket to hang from the mirror on our tow vehicle and this resulted in several staff members decending on our site in their ATV's like the FBI raiding a terrorist camp asking where our tag was. Then it happened again when we paid for an extra night and she forgot to give us a new tag with a new date. We came back from an excursion and were allowed to enter past the "guard gate" with no problem, but then sure enough the little "police-men" came riding up on their ATV's to see why we were still there if our tag had expired. We thought they were going to ask us to prove that we had paid. Amazing how one rude staff member that doesn't have their act together could make it so hard on everyone. So, word to the wise, make sure you get one of those tag thingy's to hang from your tow vehicle's mirror or you may be "burned at the stake!" The vault toilets throughout the campground were absolutely disgusting and smelled to high-heaven. If you reserve a spot, look closely at the map to be certain you don't get a spot anywhere near those toilets. We were lucky not to be downwind of one of those toilets. Yuck! It's hit or miss when you are making a reservation on Reserveamerica's website or via phone for this place because frankly some of the spots can't accommodate a larger trailer or RV. No one can help you select a good spot for your rig, so you are literally taking a chance, and hoping that you get a larger back-in or pull-through site for your RV. We stayed in Loop A, spot #29 and this was fine for our pop-up trailer, but would just be unacceptable for anything bigger. Spot #31 also seemed small. We saw several back-in spots that were bigger in Loop A: #27, #40, and #36 are all that I remember. The flush toilets and showers at the front of the facility were a little better, but not much. - AZRVFamily

We only visited for an overnight, but were pleased to discover a clean, well maintained campground with wide, long, and level paved sites. Although shaded, our site was satellite-friendly. There are no services. The pit toilet was remarkably clean. A fishing lake is nearby as well as hiking trails. It was a treat to camp at 7500' when valley temps approach 100. - CO2RV

A great, quiet spot to spend a few days. Willow Springs Lake is nearby for fishing and boating. Some trails nearby for hiking or biking. Pit toilets are new and very clean. I was the only camper in the loop, so it was very nice. Friendly hosts. Managed now on contract with Thousand Trails Inc. - Red Wolf Deux

Nice wooded campground, tall trees. All interior roads and site parking are paved. All sites are back-in, widely spaced. Each site has a picnic table and fire ring. No showers, just pit toilets. Water spigots scattered around. Verizon cell signal was weak but usable. There is a dump station. It is a short walk to the lake, a lots of trails nearby. At the lake there is a nice store with basics and you can rent boats/kayaks. Lots of 6-7% grades driving from Phoenix. - trussman

This was our first time staying here and we were very pleased with this campground. Most of the sites have numerous tall pines for decent shade. In April, before the campground was open, we scouted out sites we liked before making a reservation. About 1/3 of the sites are first come / first serve. If you're into hiking, the 5 mile loop around Woods Canyon Lake is only about a 5-10 minute walk from the campground. The Rim Trail is about 1 mile away via a trail that runs from the lake to the rim. Basics necessities are available at the store by the lake. On our hike around the lake, we saw several elk along with a pair of nesting bald eagles and their two 6 week old youngsters. Very cool experience for our 9 year old daughter to see. - MarkH

Nice campground in the woods way up in the mountains. The site we had was site 6. It was plenty long enough and level on asphalt. We went a few days before Memorial Day and there was a strict fire restriction. When I made the reservation, there were only a few sites available. I expected to be completely surrounded. Maybe the local fires kept everyone away, but there was no one within 10 sites even close to me. The sites are about 30-40 feet away from each other. This campground is a little farther away from the lake than I thought. The lake is about 1/2 mile away down a hill outside of the park. There are great walking/biking paths nearby that were very nice - asphalt. I would return to this site, but I think the mountains will probably keep me away for a while. We went from Phoenix near sea level up to 7000 feet, and back down a couple of times during the drive, not to mention other 4000 foot mountains. Very hard on my truck. - nunyadamn

Part of the access road is unpaved. Sites are laid out in a circle with parallel parking; therefore, there was little privacy or shade. Very little Verizon signal [text only]. The high point was the paved trail along the Rim, with breathtaking vistas. Would visit this campground again. - mockturtle

This is a Sitgreaves National Forest campground without any hookups or shower facilities. It's about a half mile west of the popular Woods Canyon Lake camping area. This campground doesn't have quite the forest feel that some of the other national forest campgrounds in the area have. I believe this is due to a couple of things. The ponderosa pines in this area are small to medium size. The cul-de-sac design, where you park parallel to your site, gives this campground an "in-town" feeling. Each site has a fire ring / grill combo, a picnic table, and an area for tent campers to set up. The layout of the campground felt a little crowded. Adjacent sites had distance but not much in the way of thick vegetation between them. Some sites were right across the loop road from each other. The hosts were very friendly. The vault toilet (only one for the campground) was busy during the weekend we stayed. The real plus was access to the Rim Lakes Vista Trail from within the campground. After 10 minutes of walking, you'll be at your first outlook from the Mogollon Rim. The views were spectacular from this trail. We would consider staying here again, but would try to avoid summer weekends. - Neil and JoAnn

Nice forest service campground in the Ponderosa pines. Has a nice trail leading to the scenic Rim Vista trail or you can bushwhack a fairly short distance to the undeveloped area of the Mogollon Rim. For camping right on the edge of the Rim continue on FR 300 about another mile to FR 9350 on the left. (see the map here http://www.fs.fed.us/r3/asnf/maps/images/rim_lakes_map.pdf) We walked there and there were some spectacular RV and tent sites right on the edge of the Rim. - Cal and Bennett

Work the Shell - Solve: a Command-Line Calculator Redux
Ooops! Two months ago, I started exploring how you can write a simple but quite helpful interactive command-line calculator as a shell script and ended the column with "Next month, we'll dig into useful refinements and make it a full-blown addition to our Linux toolkit. See you then!"
Unfortunately, last month, I got sidetracked with the movie The Number 23 and started another script looking at how to do numerology within the shell scripting environment. You'd think I was a typical programmer or something, being sidetracked and losing a thread by picking up another one. It reminds me of those glorious startup days from the late 1990s too, but that's an entirely different story.
Anyway, numerology can wait another month. This column, I'd like to complete the command-line calculator because, well, because it's so darn useful and simultaneously astonishing that there isn't a decent command-line calculator in Linux after all these years. I mean, really!
It was a while back, so let me remind you that the wicked short script to give you the rudimentary calculator is this:
#!/bin/sh bc << EOF scale=4 $@ quit EOF
That's it. Name it solve.sh, for example, and you can test it, as shown here:
$ sh solve.sh 1+3 4 $ sh solve.sh 11/7 1.5714
It's easy enough to alias solve to the shell command too:
alias solve="sh solve.sh"
Or, better:
alias solve="sh ~/bin/solve.sh"
As that'll work regardless of where you are in the filesystem (location-dependent commands are a typical shell gaffe).
What I'd really like, however, is to be able to go into a "solve" mode where anything I type automatically is assumed to be a mathematical equation, rather than have to type solve each time.
We've talked about shell script wrappers in the past, so you should recall this basic structure:
while read userinput do echo "you entered $userinput" done
That's too crude to use as of yet, but we easily can add a prompt so that it looks like a real program:
echo -n "solve" while read expression do echo "you entered $expression" echo -n "solve: " done
Look good? Actually, it's not. There's a subtle error here, one that's another common scripting mistake. The problem is that there are two echo commands in Linux: one that's the built-in capability of the shell itself, and one that's a separate command located in /bin. This is important because the built-in echo doesn't know what the -n flag does, but the /bin/echo command does. A tiny tweak, and we're ready to test it:
/bin/echo -n "solve: " while read expression do echo "you entered $expression" /bin/echo -n "solve: " done
Let's see what happens:
solve: 1+1 you entered 1+1 solve: ^D
That's more like it.
What we really want though, is a script that's smart enough to recognize whether you've specified parameters on the command line. If you have, it solves that equation, and if you haven't, it drops you into the interactive mode.
That's surprisingly easy to accomplish by testing the $# variable, which indicates how many arguments are given to the script. Want to see if it's greater than zero? Do this:
if [ $# -gt 0 ] ; then
One more refinement before I show you the script in its entirety: I want to have it quit if users type in quit or exit, rather than force them to type ^D to indicate end of file on standard input (which causes the read statement to return false and the loop to end).
This is done with a simple string comparison test, which you'll recall is done with = (the -eq test is for numeric values). So, testing $expression to see whether it is "quit" is easy:
if [ $expression = "quit" ] ; then
To make it a bit more bulletproof, it's actually better here to quote the variable name, so that if users enter a null string (simply press Return), the conditional test won't fail with an ugly error message:
if [ "$expression" = "quit" ] ; then
Because I like to make my scripts flexible, I've also added exit as an alternative to quit, which easily is done with a slightly more complicated conditional test:
if [ "$expression" = "quit" -o "$expression" = "exit" ] ; then
The -o is the logical OR statement in a shell conditional test, but I have a feeling you've already figured that out.

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide

Wohnung liegt nur 20-25 Minuten vom Zentrum.
Das Bad sah nicht so aus wie auf den Bildern, war aber besser.
Die Eingangstür auf der rechten Seite lässt sich sehr schwer öffnen und beim Checkout mussten wir lange auf das Personal warten.
Sonst alles sauber und gepflegt.
We arrived late in the evening, so when we wanted to collect our key, the reception was already closed. After a few phone calls we were able to pick up our key at the seemingly closed casino next door.
The apartment itself was great, clean and bright. The only downside was that one of the sofa beds (we were with 4 persons) was a bit on the hard side. It's a great apartment if you don't want to cook yourself, because otherwise options are limited (not a lot of plates and a weird stove).
The breakfast was kind of simple. A few toasts with jam or honey, the coffee and the tea were lovely.
In the neighborhood there were a lot of nice restaurants, mini-markets and other places to eat. Shops like Pho, Pizza Letna and Mr. Hotdog were nice places to grab a bite.
The apartment was very close to a big park. This park leads to places like the Metronome, Prague Castle and an overview point of pretty much the entire city. Via the park you can also easily reach downtown Prague (straight ahead when you enter the park (just when you passed the flowers)).
We gave 3 stars. This is because of the fact that, like we said, the breakfast was a bit simple and because there weren't always people at the reception. The Wi-Fi in the room itself was pretty bad. The Wi-Fi in the hall was better.
Jan's apartment is a really nice place to stay. Near to the river and to the old town, also to the public transport. In the apartment was everything, what we needed. Only wifi coverage was too weak to use. After the day on foot it was a pity for the teenager girl ;)
To sum up, thank you, Jan!
The place is great, I enjoyed a lot the view and the location is good you can go everywhere from here. The tram is one block from here And there is a nice big park near where you can hang out. I totally recommend this place.
Really nice stay, no problems at all for anything! =)
Nice clean and roomy apartment. It was nice to stay for 2 nights.
very nice, safe location and wonderful breakfast
Very nice and well-located Accommodation! Its only 15 Minutes Walk to the Old City Center. Very friendly Staff! The matraces have been quite comfortable! We would always come back here
We loved the stay in Jan's apartment. The room was small but very cosy and very clean, breakfast was included and in general the service was great. The apartment is located 15-20 minutes walk from the old town, and yet in an area that is away from tourist traps, full of nice restaurants, bakeries, pubs etc. I would be happy to stay there during my next trip to Prague as well.
