First-year Summerville tennis coach David Long is counting on a big year for the Green Wave with the addition of former Pinewood Prep All-Lowcountry star Adam Elliget to go with four returning starters, while defending SCISA Class AAA state champion Porter-Gaud is in partial rebuild mode in the absence of two-time boys tennis Lowcountry player of the year Thomas Spratt.
Elsewhere, Wando may be ready to bounce back in Winde Ellenberg's eighth season as head coach and challenge for something more than a ninth straight Region 7-AAAA title. Bishop England's biggest problem once again likely will be trying to escape the shadows of Waccamaw in Lower State Class AA. And former All-Lowcountry Austin Heinz has returned from Nick Bollettieri's Florida tennis academy to give Palmetto Christian Academy a lift in the Eagles' last year in SCISA Class AA.
Wave aims high
In the High School League where matches consist of only five singles and two doubles, Elliget should make a huge difference for Summerville in Region 8-AAAA. Elliget's insertion at the top of the lineup enables Long to push his veteran returnees down the line, while Elliget steps up as a heavy favorite to win Nos. 1 singles and doubles.
Senior Adam Seith will drop back from No. 1 to No. 2 in the lineup, while year-around tournament sophomore Walker Long (the coach's son) will fall from No. 2 to No. 3. Senior returnees Brandon Sekula and Austin Wiseman should round out the singles lineup.
"Our ultimate goal is to win the state championship," said Long, who helped out with the team a year ago. "We hope to win the region and make a deep run in the playoffs. We have high expectations."
Barth P-G coach
Jonathan Barth has giant shoes to fill at Porter-Gaud in his first year as head coach, replacing Tom Higgins who won seven state titles in his 11 years at the Albemarle Point school.
"I would think we'll be a contender . . . with (2013 runner-up) Hilton Head Prep and Hilton Head Christian. Hilton Head Prep is always loaded, and Christian has (Clemson signee) Hampton Drake," Barth said. "We're a little younger than we have been, but our depth is helped out by the SCISA format (six singles and three doubles)."
All-Lowcountry returnees Seth Pinosky and Brant Fenno are expected to help ease the loss of Spratt, who is now playing tennis for the University of Pennsylvania. Pinosky played No. 2 singles and No. 1 doubles with Spratt last year as a junior. Fenno is a highly regarded eighth-grader.
Wando improved
Ellenberg is expecting exciting things from newcomer Jacob Jahn, the fifth-ranked boys 14 player in the state in 2013, as well as the Warriors' depth. "We are super solid," Ellenberg said.
Jahn may push returning No. 1 Andrew DaCosta down to No. 2 for his junior year. The Warriors also have junior newcomer Austin Ciuffo, a tournament player who has moved in from Charlotte; junior Carter Weston, who sat out last year; sophomore Woods Browder, who missed last season with an ankle injury; and freshman Covington McMillan, who played No. 3 for the Warriors last season.
"If everything goes well, it could be our year," Ellenberg said.
BE strong again
As usual, Bishop England is expected to rule SCHSL Class AA locally. Coach Kristin Fleming's main aim has to be for the Bishops to avoid ending their season for the 12th straight year in the Lower State playoffs against Waccamaw.
"We've got a strong team . . more depth," second-year head coach Fleming said.
All-Lowcountry players Lukas Zalesky and Noah Stiepel are back as seniors, along with improved junior Jeff Jones. The Bishops also have a strong newcomer in junior Daniel Knott, a transfer from the Virgin Islands.
PCA gets boost
Coach Dewey Caulder is hoping Heinz will impact Palmetto Christian's state championship hopes. Heinz was the star for the Eagles in 2012 when they played in Class A and won their sixth state title in seven years. Without Heinz last season, the Eagles finished as Class AA state runner-up.
Caulder also is high on sixth-grader Luke Pendergast, who was ranked No. 5 in the state for 2013 in boys 12.
Junior returnees Chris DeMarco and Trey Goolsby will be near the top of the lineup.
The Eagles will move up to Class AAA next season.

The conception of a purely muscular insufficiency of the atrioventricular valves is so new a one, that here in America, at least, it has made but little impression upon the great body of physicians who have to do with heart cases. The purpose of this paper is to endeavor, in some small way, to secure for this very important and common group of cases the recognition they deserve, and this not only theoretically but practically at the bedside.
A muscular mitral insufficiency is one in which the valves are anatomically normal, in which the mitral ring is not of such large size that the curtains do not suffice to close it, but in which the valve is incompetent, because of the imperfect functionating of the muscular apparatus of the valve.Until very recently we have been accustomed to think of the closure of the valve as

The .45-70 Government was developed at the United States Army's Springfield Armory for use in the Model 1873 rifle known as the "Trapdoor Springfield." This cartridge replaced the .50-70 cartridge that had been in use since 1866. This new cartridge would be completely identified as the .45-70-405. The nomenclature at that time was based on these characteristics of the cartridge:
.45: the caliber or diameter of the bullet
70: the weight of propellant (black Powder) charge in grains
405: the weight of the lead bullet in grains.
The cartridge was later loaded with a 500-grain lead bullet that produced superior ballistics. The heavier bullet was capable of reaching beyond maximum of the .45-70-405. While the maximum effective range of the .45-70 on individual targets is limited to about 1,000 yards with either load, the heavier bullet was capable of producing lethal injuries of beyond 3,000 yards.
The .45-70 cartridge did not survive the transition to smokeless powder as a military round even though it was used to a limited degree during the Spanish-American War. For all practical purposes, it was replaced in 1892 by the smokeless powder round, the 30-40 Krag.
As a sporting cartridge, the .45-70 Government has survived and, more than 130 years after its introduction, the .45-70 has undergone resurgence in popularity. Several modern rifles and a few handguns are now chambered for the cartridge, and its popularity appears to be on the increase.
The .45-70 has proven itself to be an effective short-range cartridge on all kinds of heavy and dangerous game throughout the world. Today, the traditional 405-grain jacketed soft point bullet is considered adequate for any North American big game within its range limitation including the great bears. It does not destroy large volumes of edible meat on smaller animals such as white tail deer because of the bullets low velocity. It is a very effective round for all types of hunting in brush or heavy timber where the range is usually short (less than 100 yards). While it does not produce the instant kills of the modern high-intensity cartridges, it still performs reliably. A well-hit game animal of North America will seldom escape after being hit with the .45-70 heavy bullet.
Factory ammunition today for the .45-70 includes the 405-grain jacketed soft point with an advertised muzzle velocity of 1,330 feet per second. Remington and Winchester manufacture this round. This would be a very effective round for hunting black bear, deer and wild boar in West Virginia. Federal also offers a 300-grain jacketed hollow point bullet with a muzzle velocity of about 1,800 feet-per-second.
Some of the rifles and handguns manufactured today for the .45-70 include the Marlin Model 1895 lever action, the Ruger Number One and Number Three Single Shot. A few companies have manufactured replicas of the "Trapdoor" Springfield Single Shot. The Thompson/Center Contender Single Shot is also chambered for this round.
Below are three handloads for the .45-70 Government:
1. Case Winchester
Primer Federal 210 (large rifle)
Powder & Weight: IMR 3031: 46.0 grains
Bullet Hornady 300-grain jacketed hollow point
Note: This is a low-pressure load for older rifles and modern replicas of the 1873 Springfield Trapdoor Model.
2. Case Remington
Primer Remington 9 1/2 (large rifle)
Powder & Weight - IMR 4198; 41.0 grains
Bullet Sierra 300-grain flat nose soft point
Note: This load is very effective in the Marlin Model 1895.
3. Case Winchester
Primer Federal 210 (large rifle)
Powder & Weight IMR 3031; 55.4 grains
Bullet Hornady 350-grain round nosed soft point
Note: This load should only be used in the stronger Ruger Number One and Number 3 Single Shot. It would be very effective on elk, caribou, and moose at close ranges.
These loads should never be fired in the older rifles that were manufactured during the black-powder era.

With U.S. stock indexes rising and the economy showing signs of life, business jet buyers seem to be returning to the market. Much like horses at the start of a race, they appear to be champing at the bit, waiting impatiently for the starting gate to open.

In these days of sluggish economic recovery and historically low interest rates, the biggest competition for those offering business jet financing is a four-letter word: cash. Those who still have the resources to buy aircraft often prefer to pay cash rather than finance, for the simple reason that they now have few other attractive places to put their money.

The last few years haven't held much in the way of surprises for the used-jet market and I suspect 2012 won't, either.

Considering what 2011 served up in terms of worldwide calamity–from government overthrows to devastating natural disasters to a global debt crisis–it's a wonder anyone had the confidence and wherewithal to buy a corporate jet. Yet the year saw a continuation of 2010's resurgence of buyer activity. This mild but sustained trend is providing a sense of relief for many sellers.

If the super computers that some blame for Wall Street's recent wild swings were used to trade aircraft, it's likely they would be programmed to buy right now. But aircraft purchases and sales still occur the old-fashioned way, which can involve deal-stalling high emotions and conflicting personalities.
October 1, 2011
One of the first things you hear about when you begin using business aviation in the U.S. is the mysterious but important distinction between Part 91 and Part 135 operations. Many people still think about the difference in simplistic terms: Part 91–good; Part 135–bad. The facts are considerably more complicated.
August 1, 2011
Activity in the preowned market continues unabated, yet at a measured pace. In fact, inventory levels are now about where they were in October 2008 (and climbing for almost a year), when the calamity on Wall Street reverberated around the globe and dealt a devastating and unprecedented blow to the new and used aircraft business.

BMI View : The closure and conversion by MOL of the Mantova refinery to a fuels storage terminal yet again highlights the unfavourable and uncompetitive state of the refining sector in Italy and Europe more generally. While the conversion will enable the company to move away from the low-margin refining sector, it reinforces our view that difficult times continue to lie ahead for European refiners, with other shutdowns likely in the coming years.
Hungarian oil and gas company MOL announced the closure and conversion of its Ma ntova refinery into a ' products logistics hub ' from January 2014. This once again highlights the unfavourable and uncompetitive state o f the refining sector in Italy and in Europe more generally, as refiners are hit by high oil prices and weaker demand in Western European product markets , which has severely reduced refining margins.
Operated by Italiania Energia Servizi (IES), the Mantova refinery is located in Mantua, Lombardy. IES was acquired by M OL in 2007. The refinery has a capacity of 52,000 barrels per day (b/d), wi th a Nelson complexity index of 8.36, and specialises in diesel and b itumen production . Crude supplies originate from oil areas linked to the Mediterranean basin and are unloaded at Porto Maghera, from where it is c arried to the refinery via a 120km-long pipeline.
The conversion of the refinery into a products logistics hub will enable the company to move away from the low-margin refining sector and improve its competitive position in Italy through the high er -valu e storage and logistics sector . The conversion of the refinery will most likely be cost effective for the company, as most of the nece ssary infrastructure is already in place. The logistics network, the storage units at Porto Margera and the 120km pipeline connecting the port and the Mantova refinery previously used to transport crude from the port to the refinery will be used to transport end-products to the refinery for storage.
In addition to the possibility of importing refined products from the Middle East , MOL has reportedly reached an agreement with E ni to connect its conversion project with E ni ' s green refinery initiative . Similarly to the Mantova refinery, E ni is in the process of converting its Venice facility into a bio-refinery in a move to transform the low - profit refinery into an economically sustainable industrial operation over the long term. E ni began the conversion in July, with first biofuel production scheduled for January 2014.
Ailing European Refining Sector
This shutdown and conversion yet again highlights the ailing state of the Italian and, more generally, of the European refining sector . C hanges in product demand and growing international competition from new, large and efficient refining centres in several Asian and Middle Eastern countries (India and Saudi Arabia for example) have forced the reorganisation or the closure of several refineries. 15 refineries have closed since 2008 in Europe , with companies relocating investments to Asia and the Middle East. W e expect this trend to continue. For example, a Bloomberg survey earlier this year highlighted that of the region's 104 refineries, a further ten could shut down permanently by 2020.
In Italy specifically, refineries are typically of lower complexity and provide few economies of scale. As a result, they are particularly vulnerable to cyclical downturn in markets for refined products. Weak demand in Western European product markets has severely reduced refining margins in the country ; for example, the margin from refining Libya's Es Sider crude had been negative for most of 2009 and parts of 2010. As a result, this has forced Italian players to seek the reorganisation of its domesti c refineries.
MOL 's Manto va refinery is the latest victim of the downtrend hitting Italy's refining sector. Eni's Gela refinery had temporarily implemented a partial stoppage in 2012 in order to cut losses. To improve Gela's efficiency and profits, Eni plans to convert the refinery into a 'technological hub' by 2017, with a new industrial and organisation structure capable of varying its product slate by maximising production of diesel and interrupted production of gasoline and polyethylene.
In June 2013, It alian industry minister F lavio Zanonato said that Italy has an excessive capacity of 15-20 million tonnes annually , putting four big sized refineries at the risk of closure within the next few years. Alessandro Gilotti, chairman of the oil union, in turn warned that at least two refi neries c ould be closed by 2014.

Colorado Olympic swimming champ Amy Van Dyken severs spine
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — Six-time Olympic gold medalist and Colorado native Amy Van Dyken Rouen is in an intensive care unit after severing her spine in an all-terrain vehicle accident Friday.
Reports say a letter from the Van Dyken and Rouen families said she severed her spinal cord at the T11 vertebra. She underwent surgery and her husband, former Denver Broncos punter Tom Rouen told the Denver Post Amy was in good spirits Monday.
Van DykenRouen, who attended Colorado State University, is at Scottsdale Healthcare Osborn Medical Center.
David Van Dyken posted on Facebook that his sister was airlifted to the hospital after being injured in the accident in Show Low, which is about 180 miles from Phoenix in the eastern part of Arizona.
The Republic said according to a report, Show Low Police were dispatched to Torreon Golf Club just before 8 p.m. Friday after receiving a 911 call. Van Dyken Rouen was conscious but having trouble breathing and without feeling in her legs.
A witness said Van Dyken Rouen, who was not wearing a helmet, was seen driving an ATV through a parking lot and launched over a curb. The witness said he ran to Van Dyken Rouen and found her unresponsive.
Tom Rouen was riding a motorcycle and went to her aid right after the accident. He says he didn't see the entire accident unfold, but he thought the ATV possible rolled over her.
Police said Van Dyken Rouen's husband, former Broncos punter Tom Rouen, told them he recently changed the throttle mechanism on the ATV from a thumb accelerator to a twist accelerator. There was no evidence of alcohol being a factor and no charges were filed.
Van Dyken Rouen won the 50-meter freestyle and 100-meter butterfly gold medals at the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta, and was a part of two winning relays. She won two other golds at the 2000 Sydney Games. She was inducted into the U.S. Olympic Committee Hall of Fame in 2008.
She's a graduate of Cherry Creek High School.
Van Dyken Rouen is a radio talk show host in the Phoenix market and is a former national sports radio host on Fox Sports Radio.
She has tweeted twice since the accident, including a picture from her niece and nephew.

Wow this really is the best thing since sliced bread! There are lots of things to love about this recipe, it tasty great, it's easy, it makes just over a cup and has lots of yummy variations. I made strawberry and am looking forward to trying the other flavors. Thanks so much for the post.
This makes a nice tasting, tart jam. And it comes together very FAST! I didn't strain out the raspberry seeds as I had this on wheat toast and it was fine that way. But if using as a sauce for ice cream, I would probably go the extra mile and strain out the seeds. Thank you, JackieOhNo! [Made for the All You Can Cook Buffet special]
Great tasting jam/spread/sauce, whatever you want to call it & however you want to use it! So easy & wonderful! Definitely keeping this around so I can make some of the other variations, too! [Tagged, made & reviewed for the Summer Salad & Berry Recipe Challange]

FrontPageMag's Infiltration of the Muslim Student Association Was a Bust
Intrepid FrontPageMag reporter Mark Tapson didn't quite find what he was looking for when he infiltrated the Muslim Student Association's annual West Coast conference last month...but, he alleges, that's just more proof of a secret Muslim Brotherhood plot to "radicalize" college students.
Tapson told Janet Mefferd in a radio interview Friday that far from finding anything "radical" or "damning" at the conference, "it was largely very innocuous." He had high hopes for a workshop called "Islamatics," for instance, but found that it was just about Islam and American politics. He even took pains to register for the conference under a "variation" of his name, only to be admitted with no questions asked.
But Tapson has a theory about why the MSA's conference was so "innocuous." It's all part of Muslim Brotherhood plan, he tells Mefferd, to capture "the hearts and minds of the young." This campus organizing and community-building, he says, "radicalizes them and it steers them toward further radicalization down the line."
Tapson: Um, there were some lesser speakers who also got political. There was a workshop called "Islamatics," which I expected to be more interesting than it actually was. It was basically a Washington, DC, Muslim talking about lining up Islamic ideals with the current political parties, 'bridging the gap between their religion and their votes,' as he put it.
Mefferd: Wow.
Tapson: But, you know, it was largely very innocuous. I mean, there was nothing beyond what I've already told you, really. There was very little that you'd consider radical. Highly politicized, yes, but nothing damning.
Mefferd: I think this is very true that, from what you've reported, that there wasn't a lot of radical talk and it was kind of innocuous in a lot of respects, but you point out that for the Muslim Brotherhood front groups that organized this thing, it serves as a very successful recruitment and radicalization tool. Is that really, at root, the reason for the conference, or at least a primary reason for the conference, that other groups, CAIR or ISNA or, you know, whatever it is can have contact with a younger generation?
Tapson: Oh, absolutely. It's all about the younger generation. And, politicizing and organizing that younger generation in campus groups and strengthening their sense of community as Muslims, strengthening their campus activism, that's all, that's a very important goal because it radicalizes them and it steers them toward further radicalization down the line. So, yeah, it's all about capturing the hearts and minds of the young.
Mefferd: Oh, wow.

HUNTSVILLE, Alabama - If the world really does end Dec. 21 when the Mayan calendar ends, some locals will be going out with a bang -- or at least with a beer. Local bars and clubs are gearing up for customers who will use the idea of the last day of ever to have a good time.
"I can foresee it" as a night to get out and party, Johnny Hoffman, the manager of Amendment XXI said. People "will want to sit back and see what happens." The bar on Huntsville's Courthouse Square, in fact, plans to have a special drink available for customers who want to celebrate the occasion.
Around the corner on Holmes Avenue, the folks at Below the Radar are definitely gearing up for a busy night. "I do know it's going to be a great bar night, sort of one of those Y2K nights" general manager Tom Yack said, referring to the predictions that the world would shut down when the clock struck midnight on Dec. 31, 1999. It didn't.
"We're expecting it to be one of our busiest evenings until New Year's Eve," Yack said. "I think it's fantastic. It's something that's just fun, just to blow off a little bit of steam. He compared the Mayan calendar craziness to the Iron Bowl of bar nights when football fans crowd in to watch the game while eating and drinking with friends.
"I love Alabama, and I love Auburn, and I love it when they both win," Yack said. "It's good for business."
At least one group of Facebook friends is planning an end of the world pub crawl, and one local brewing company is hosting a party.
"Well, those pesky Mayans just might be right, so we're planning on going out with a beer-infused bang!" reads the Straight to Ale End of the World Party Facebook page. "It's going to be a really big blow out," Rich Partain, Straight to Ale's sales rep, said. "Christmas parties are kind of overdone, so this is an excuse to have party. "
The brewery will have live music and serve some of its newest brews, Partain said, and its food partner, "No Brakes Bistro," will be pulling up the gourmet food truck for some end-of-the world dining. On the apocalyptic menu are regular items such as the Bistro Burger, a fat hamburger topped with bacon; the Pork on Pork Action, which is pulled pork and bacon; and the three cheese grilled cheese.
All items are topped with crispy fried onions, Partain said. And all can be ordered, by request, deep fried. "You can have the straight, unhealthy menu or you can go over and have it deep fried," if you really think there's no tomorrow.
While the event itself is free, you'll have to pay for your food and beer, Partain said. "We have to act as if it's not the end of the world and still pay our rent."

In between each fight they are fully healed, but items can't be used. (Exceptions for Pokemon with signature items, such as Arceus' plates, Genesect's drives, Lati's soul dew, etc.)
How far does your Pokemon make it?
Round 1: Hercule (DBZ)
Round 2: The Green Ranger (Power Rangers classic)
Round 3: Spider-Man
Round 4: The Mask (Jim Carrey version)
Round 5: Tag Team: Sub-Zero + Scorpion (Mortal Kombat)
Round 6: Greymon (Digimon)
Round 7: Metal Gear REX(Metal Gear Solid)
Round 8: Optimus Prime (Transformers)
Round 9: Perfect Chaos (Sonic Adventure)
Round 10: Lavos, All Forms Endurance Run (Chrono Trigger)
<3 and (/|\) !
Uhh.. I'd say Breloom gets to like fight 4 or 5.
I develop games:
Ninetales Vs:
Round 1: Hercule (DBZ): Hercule is an idiot so Ninetales could probably make him knock himself out.
Round 2: The Green Ranger (Power Rangers classic): Well green does tend to be associated with plants, and Ninetales is a Fire Type.
Round 3: Spider-Man: Both have high base speed, but Ninetales has a severe type advantage. It would be interesting to see whether web or flames win out in the end.
Round 4: The Mask (Jim Carrey version): Illusions vs, sheer randomness. I honestly have no idea.
Round 5: Tag Team: Sub-Zero + Scorpion (Mortal Kombat): Ninetales has range so it would probably just destroy them. You can also add in what Confuse ray does to tag teams.
Round 6: Greymon (Digimon): I haven't the foggiest idea.
Round 7: Metal Gear REX(Metal Gear Solid): Never played the series.
Round 8: Optimus Prime (Transformers): Giant robot vs. a Fox that makes illusions, probably Optimus.
Round 9: Perfect Chaos (Sonic Adventure)

Metagross is here to save the day, obviously!
Round 1: Hercule (DBZ)
Metagross is certain one Bullet Punch will be more than sufficient.
Round 2: The Green Ranger (Power Rangers classic)
Metagross beats up puny meatsack AND his silly robot dragon which lacks telekinetic abilities (also the ability to fly)!
Round 3: Spider-Man
Metagross out-manuvers Spider-Man. Supercomputer speed > Spidey-sense speed (the whole telekinesis thing comes in handy here too).
Round 4: The Mask (Jim Carrey version)
Metagross sees a serious challenge in the Mask's nonsense and unpredictability, but overcomes Jim Carrey's nonsense in the end!
Round 5: Tag Team: Sub-Zero + Scorpion (Mortal Kombat)
Metagross laughs at their puny physical attacks and crushes them like the meatsacks they are.
Round 6: Greymon (Digimon)
Metagross takes a fireball to the chin, but responds with a...Earthquake or Ice Punch? Whatever the heck does more, leave the facts to Mr. Fourbrains Supercomputer.
Round 7: Metal Gear REX(Metal Gear Solid)
Metagross' telekinetic abilities make conventional weaponry useless? I dunno, I suppose it would be kinda close, what with REX's mad kung fu skills. XD For argument's sake, let's assume robot with psychic powers > regular robot.
Round 8: Optimus Prime (Transformers)
Blue vs. Blue-and-red!? Given Prime's propensity for not staying dead, probably him in the long run, but unless he pulls out a magic mushroom in the form of Ultra Magnus, Jetfire, or Wing Saber, let's give it to Metagross.
Round 9: Perfect Chaos (Sonic Adventure)
Uh-oh...Metagross is screwed! Too much water is bad for his low Special Defense! D:
Round 10: Lavos, All Forms Endurance Run (Chrono Trigger)
I-is that even doable? XD
Currently playing: MMZCollection, Pokemon Black 2 [2538 3598 3001], FE:Awakening, Xenoblade Chronicles

I think Zapdos will fare well until Lavos. Lavos can fly, right?
"I see the way you look at him. I'm a man too, ya know? I go pee pee standing up!"

Dragpnite is fast enough to fly around the world in 16 hours. Thus is super fast. Definitely is a able to Hyper Beam and nuke a city like in the manga. This he wins everything. With either Hyper Beam or a wide variety of other strong moves, all heightened to the Max.
I don't like the new pokemon from Gen V and VI
"New is not a synonym of better" -wonder if it's been said before

These topics are not nice to NFEs like Eevee ;_; Hercule kicks its ass in seconds.
Why do I have to move with the crowd of kids that hardly notice I'm around? I work myself to death just to fit in.

Colvin: Strength in competition
Holly Colvin believes competition for places can only strengthen England women as they look ahead to their NatWest Series against India.
The 22-year-old is returning to the squad after missing their winter tour to New Zealand while she completed her degree at Durham University.
The left-arm spinner is delighted to be back representing England and insists the new faces will hold the team in good stead as they enter a busy summer period.
"It is so good to be back; it feels like I have never been away," Colvin told ecb.co.uk. "It is just great to be back and I can't wait to get started on the series this summer.
"There is plenty of us in the squad so there is always competition for places. We think spin is one of our strengths and hopefully we can show that against India.
"We have got some great young faces coming through the system and English women's cricket is getting stronger and stronger each year and competition within the squad for places is fantastic.
"We have to perform under pressure against tough competition and the pressure internally being even greater can help make you perform to your peak."
Colvin, who has been an integral part of the team since her debut in 2005, linked up with the team as they continued their preparations at Loughborough for two Twenty20s and the five-game 50-over series against India.
"They are a good competitive side," Colvin added. "They have got a good fast bowler in Jhulan Goswami and I am sure they have got plenty of spinners up their sleeves.
"I am looking forward to getting started, T20s are always fun and I really enjoy the challenge, especially being a spinner in the middle overs, and hopefully I can do like I did last summer.
"India are a good one-day side as well and we believe we are the best side in the world so hopefully we can put up a good fight and beat them 5-0."
The series marks the start of a busy year for England women with the World T20 in September and then the World Cup in February, and the spinner believes the experience within their squad will give them a huge boost as they attempt to defend their crown.
"It is a massive winter this winter with both World Cups coming up so hopefully we can put a bit of momentum by winning this series into that summer.
"It was one of the best experiences in my career so far. If we could repeat that again and share it with the girls that missed out last time that would be even better, I can't wait.
"We are one of the few teams that has the most players from the previous World Cups which I think is a big strength of ours, but also we have got some new young faces which will make you stronger."

Na Pa'i Ki'i o Brother BertramJanuary 17, 2014 - May 16, 2014
Manoa Campus, Hamilton Library Alcove
Brother Gabriel Bertram Bellinghausen was a Marianist community director sent from Dayton, Ohio to help establish Catholic Education in Hawai'i and later became the first Marianist principal of Saint Louis College, currently known as Saint Louis School. His collection of photos covers the period 1883 – 1905.
Brother Bellinghausen's hobby was photography. He took photos "that documented slices of everyday life during a time when the Hawaiian Kingdom was n the threshold of annexation by the United States." This valuable collection of photos has been digitized and can be viewed on the Ulukau website under Wings/Photography:
This exhibit is on loan from the Chaminade University Library. It was developed by Dr. Al Lum for Chaminade's 50th Anniversary in 2005.
Mahalo to Dr. Lum (Historian), Darrell Asato (Designer), and Sharon LaPage (Librarian) for their help with this traveling exhibit.

The Atlanta Braves have completed their first week of spring training, and the roster is already starting to take shape.
There is still a month left to fully determine who will be on the Opening Day roster, but we still have a general idea of what it's going to look like.
To this point, some of the highlights have included the play of Dan Uggla (3-for-7), Tommy La Stella (7-for-15) and Matt Lipka (4-for-12).
Meanwhile, some of the early disappointments are B.J. Upton (1-for-7), Evan Gattis (1-for-8) and Brandon Beachy (10.80 ERA).
Either way, it is a welcome sight to see baseball being played again.
With that said, here's the first projection at what the Braves' 25-man roster will look like on Opening Day.

Possible thoughts of the poacher just before he killed the world's largest elephant, an old bull whose prized tusks reached the ground: 1. Wow! World's largest elephant! I'll be a legend! 2. Better make this shot count or the game patrols will be on me and I'll be the one dead in the dust. 3. This will make someone rich and hopefully I'll pick up a few coins for risking my life. What likely did not occur to him was: This is the last elephant of its size in Kenya or anywhere; the symbol of our land. We'll not see his like ever again, just so some wealthy collector thousands of miles away can frame his fireplace with the treasure of a vanishing breed.
Few things are as valuable as the ability to save a life. The fact that several bystanders came forward to help an 88-year-old man who had been struck by a heart attack inside the Giant in Carlisle was commendable; the fact that most of those men and women knew what to do was vital. Every citizen should know basic cardio-pulmonary resuscitation technique, and every business, public facility and lamp post should be equipped with an electronic rescue kit. No one wants to be standing there helpless and uninformed as another's life slips away.
Harrisburg area residents forced to choke and wheeze their way through the smoke from Friday's salvage yard fire now have some idea of everyday life in Delhi, Beijing, Mexico City, Pyongyang, Cairo, etc.
Responding to a sudden invasion of hungry "daytime" mosquitoes unwilling to restrict their activity to evening hours, Cumberland County vector control officers are distributing a network of traps to chart the progress of the horde through the summer and warning citizens to take reasonable measures. Despite all such efforts, the mosquitoes apparently have no difficulty colonizing impromptu trash dumps and abandoned cars in our countrysides. It's like we spend years making ourselves hospitable and then suddenly decide we don't want them any more. No wonder they're driven to biting people in broad daylight.
The frighteningly wealthy Koch brothers are looking for lobbyists who will raise money to hire other lobbyists to impose their will on the political mechanisms of this country. If their objective is to seize and fashion to their advantage the democratic principles on which our republic rests, the Kochs seem to be well on their way to achieving it.
Why Pennsylvania? A Lackawanna County man has been sentenced to a year in prison for sending an explicit death threat to President Obama, ordering him to "stand down or be shot dead." Arresting officers seized three guns and approximately 11,000 rounds of ammunition. This person clearly had the motivation and the means to carry out his wish. Thankfully he was unable to root up the opportunity.
Looks like the feds have driven a stake through the heart of the Washington NFL franichise's offensive-to-many team mascot, sending the ownership back into the marketplace for a more acceptable team face/name. History's dustbin contains many previously discarded club monickers that might be returned to service -- Atlanta Crackers, Boston Beaneaters, Boston Doves, Chicago Spuds, Cleveland Forest Citys, Houston Colt .45s, Milwaukee Cream Citys, St. Paul Apostles, Brooklyn Mutual, Brooklyn Tip-Tops, New York New Yorks, Oakland Oaks, Philadelphia Pearls, Philadelphia White Elephants, St. Louis Perfectos, San Francisco Mission Reds, Tampa Bay Devil Rays. On the other hand, maybe it's better to turn the christening project over to the fans.

Cold War Technology in Europe
Summer School Program
August 27th-September 1st
Chios, Greece, and Izmir, Turkey
Conveners: Aristotle Tympas (Greece) and Yaprak Gulcan (Turkey)
The European Science Foundation Inventing Europe EUROCORES research program (www.esf.org), in collaboration with the International Research Network Tensions of Europe (www.histech.nl/tensions), is organizing a Summer School on Cold War Technology in Europe. Inventing Europe doctoral students and junior scholars will attend. The Summer School is also open to doctoral students and junior scholars from the Tensions of Europe network, and, to all other doctoral students or junior scholars interested in the topic. The Summer School will be hosted by the History of Science and Technology Division, Philosophy and History of Science Department, University of Athens, Greece (www.phs.uoa.gr/ht/). It will take place on the island of Chios, Greece, and at the city of Izmir, Turkey, between Monday, August 27, and Saturday, September 1, 2007.
Course content
Historians of Cold War Europe are no longer content to offer tales of diplomatic intrigues and calculations of missile throw-weights that feature Europe as the playing field for struggles between the superpowers. The increasingly sophisticated legal, political, economic, and institutional perspectives being brought to bear upon analyses of postwar Europe increasingly emphasizes the complex internal divisions and multilateral interactions on the nominally polarized Continent. The aim of this Summer School is to incorporate the latest research developments on European science and technology into a new historiography of Cold War Europe. The Summer School will introduce a broader set of innovative research strategies for identifying and explaining the processes that shaped, sustained, and sometimes undermined various transnational European identities in ways that have seldom been visible in traditional bilateral political narratives. The motivating themes are drawn primarily from the history of technology and high-tech science—not the history of artefacts as material "prime movers" in malleable social spaces, but the history of complex systems of knowledge that have both integrated and fragmented European politics, society, and culture in the twentieth century. The Summer School thus serves as an introduction to an emerging set of scholarly agendas for changing the way we write histories of Europe.
The Cold War created favorable conditions for large-scale technological projects that often had unexpected transnational effects, certainly within "Western Europe" and "Eastern Europe" respectively, but on occasion across that geopolitical divide as well. This held true for civilian entities like CERN, EURATOM, or JINR, and especially for ambitious new military enterprises of unprecedented scale and complexity. In the process of constituting multi-site technologies, these enterprises could change the dynamics of the arduous political negotiations among their national participants. They served as an important nexus for regional networks without ever severing their reliance on national economies, and demand more than the techniques of comparative history for proper explanation. Our curriculum will address certain Europe-building practices in which specific concepts and visions of Europe became embedded in particular designs for artefacts and systems. The working assumption is that to unpack these technoscientific systems is to uncover important ways in which Europe has been made and unmade over time.
The subject matter ranges from large-scale collaborations for fundamental research within highly technological frameworks (particle physics, molecular biology), to vast military production enterprises, and on to the realm of consumer culture. While recognizing that we should always be mindful of the ways in which nation-states have laid claim to diverging narratives of Europe, we think it profitable to take a closer look at transnational processes from these diverse vantage points and ask, What roles have scientific and technological systems and practices played in how Europe has been experienced, projected, performed, exported, imported, and reproduced?
It might go without saying that this approach discounts the essentialist question "What is Europe?" in favor of Europe as an evolving category of practice. But by the same token, it acknowledges the realities of "East" and "West" while inviting participants to examine hitherto unacknowledged continuities and mutual appropriations throughout the Cold War era.
The Summer School will take place on Chios, Greece (Monday, Tuesday, Friday, Saturday) and at Izmir, Turkey (Wednesday and Thursday). The program consists of lectures, discussion of pre-assigned material, sessions of student project presentations, roundtable discussions, and special sessions on how to publish, write a proposal, and search for a job. It also includes visits to sites of interest to the history of technology (both in Greece and in Turkey), planned so as to introduce to continuities and discontinuities in the history of technology in the region.

No way Canelo goes for that, but what they could do is have Canelo headline a card of his own against Bundrage on HBO the week after for when they replay the PPV. They get the same effect, without having to deal with bullshit like Canelo not wanting to be on the undercard for the future negotiation.
Would be a good card though just can't see them doing it like that

Product DescriptionThe Winchester Model 94 is popular throughout the world and today's production utilizes the latest manufacturing technology to bring you some of the most accurate models ever produced. John M. Browning's original takedown design in the Trails End Takedown rifle comes apart quickly for easy transporting just about anywhere. Takedown the Model 94 into two compact components (the barrel assembly and the stocked receiver assembly); then slip it into your backpack, wrap it in your bedroll, strap it on your ATV or tuck it behind the seat of your truck, boat, or bush plane. Reassembly is easy. Just put the two pieces together, give the end of the magazine tube a few turns, and you have a full-length rifle with the same superb accuracy as the other models.
The Trails End is built on a walnut with a satin finish, authentic straight-grip styling, and a blued steel forearm cap that offer a nostalgic look. The triple-checked, button-rifled barrel allows for the ultimate in accuracy and precision and the round-locking bolt trunnions help ensure a smooth, quick lever throw. The rifle's top-tang safety is easy to see and operate and its rebounding hammer provides an added margin of safety. The hammer is drilled and tapped for an included knurled hammer spur extension to aid in cocking and decocking the hammer when a scope is mounted. The articulated cartridge stop improves feeding reliability without damaging cartridges and the bolt relief cut reduces hammer drag for smoother cocking. Marble Arms front sight and adjustable Buckhorn rear sight. Steel loading gate. Drilled and tapped for scope mounts.

The Saddam Spam Conspiracy
A former U.S. Marine who participated in capturing ousted Iraqi President Saddam Hussein said the public version of his capture was fabricated.
Ex-Sgt. Nadim Abou Rabeh, of Lebanese descent, was quoted in the Saudi daily al-Medina Wednesday as saying Saddam was actually captured Friday, Dec. 12, 2003, and not the day after, as announced by the U.S. Army.
Read the rest here.
Is it important how and when Saddam Hussein was captured? I tend to think not really.
However, at the time he was found in the infamous "rat hole", I wondered what kind of Muslim (or American culture hater) would have SPAM canned meat product on his makeshift pantry shelf. I mean, let's not forget what's in it. And what's more Americana-centric than Spam? Aside from Spam in a 1967 Chevelle Malibu with the big block 396 traveling with a blond ponyhaired valley girl.
Leave it to Hormel to put a positive spin on it, however.
"It's further evidence of the popularity of SPAM worldwide," said a Hormel Foods Corp. spokeswoman.
So, was Hormel set up? Will there be a lawsuit against the Marines? Was this really a reflection of Sgt. Nadim Abou Rabeh's intense disgust with canned meat?
Hey, I never claimed to have the answers.

Manual: A Guide to Achievement & Enlightenment in the Urban Community
Click to buy via Amazon
by James Bennett Jr.
Paperback: 98 pages
Publisher: CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform (September 25, 2012)
Language: English
Product Dimensions: 0.2 x 5.9 x 8.9 inches
In a way, this book, The Manual: A Guide to Achievement & Enlightenment In
The Urban Community, was born when its author, James Bennett Jr., was arrested
on October 12, 2011 by the Lakeland, Florida Police Department and charged with
five felonies, including assault and battery on a police officer. Bennett, a
personal trainer at the Lakeland Family YMCA, claims he didn't strike anyone on
that day but a possible sentence of 25 years in prison awaited him if convicted.
Unlike many young black people involved with the justice system, Bennett refuses to submit the dismal stereotypes of inner city youth. Instead, he, as a journalist, decided to start writing a book, mapping a path to success using several of the goal-setting methods and business strategies of the rich. Facing criminal charges, Bennett knew he had to rethink his plan not only to survive but to thrive, especially since most bosses deemed him unemployable.
First, Bennett should be commended for not slipping into the usual pessimistic attitudes of the young people dealt his bad hand. So many young black men have a prison history and can't get a break. He knew these felony counts were "devastating and permanent" to a man his age, but he pushed forward as a certified personal trainer for baby boomers and later as a writer. He creates a five-year plan, step by step, using careful preparation, persistence, execution of the goal, and practical evaluation.
Bennett, a keen observer, sums up his game plan to success through his revised approach for achievement by writing this book and taking a less aggressive stance to getting justice. To support his theories, he rounds up some of his friends and associates to testify about choosing other roads out of poverty, boosting the validity of the thesis of this self-help book. There is nothing remarkable about what these pals say, but the fervor and intensity of their statements ring quite true.
Despite the many setbacks of his life, Bennett credits his steadfast faith in God in bringing him through the crisis in his hometown. He says his devotion has taught some serious lessons in his journey to recovery and redemption. In the author's heartfelt words, he says: To everyone who reads my story, my hope is that you will see how God can pick up a soul at its lowest point and lift it to the furthest reaches of the sky. He requires only one thing. Acceptance of his power." (pp. 82)
One of the many benefits of the book, a useful reading list is included after the optimistic testimony of friends and examples of Bennett's stop-and-start existence. You can tell a lot about his viewpoint from the authors influencing his efforts, including books by Dennis Kimbro, Eckhart Tolle, Dale Carnegie, Robert Greene, Steve Stoute, Marcus Garvey and Malcolm X.
What sticks with the reader from Bennett's book is that this young black man embraces his many problems without trying to shift blame to his family, his community, or society. His writings seek to identify the obstacles and challenges of his life and present them as a mirror for all of those disfranchised black youth in a similar situation. This is the true value of Bennett's spiritual narrative against fear and doubt on the arduous journey to success. That's why this book deserves attention.

Week at a Glance
Though NBC publicity promises that this two-part movie (based on the book by J. Randy Taraborrelli) will offer "untold" stories and "rare glimpses" of the Kennedy family, most of it seems like the product of a recycling machine that never shuts down. The tragedies and triumphs of the political clan have been retailed in so many TV dramas (including CBS's Jackie Bouvier Kennedy Onassis, which Women of Camelot was originally slated to compete against last November) that it's almost irrelevant to ask whether Jill Hennessy (formerly of Law & Order) resembles the real First Lady of the New Frontier. What counts is that Hennessy compares favorably to Joanne Whalley, this season's previous pretend Jackie. Hennessy brings charm and elegance to the role, achieving a nice balance of beguiling softness and cool pragmatism.
You can't help sympathizing with Leslie Stefanson's pretty, vulnerable Joan Kennedy, here seen as frequently bolstered by sister-in-law Jackie. But Lauren Holly portrays Ethel as crass, envious, prone to astonishingly insensitive remarks and only slightly less ambitious than Lady Macbeth. Completing this Ethel's set of unattractive traits is a voice that can jangle any nerve within a five-mile radius. For a more positive portrait of Robert Kennedy's widow, turn to A&E's Biography March 1 at 8 p.m.
Bottom Line: Camelot—been there.
NBC, UPN, TNN (check listings)
•If these guys are so proud of their "smashmouth" brand of ball, why do the helmets have face masks? Give a few teeth for the cause.
•Shouldn't Minnesota Gov. Jesse "The Body" Ventura have something more statesmanlike to do than serve as an XFL announcer on NBC, which owns the enterprise in partnership with the World Wrestling Federation? Couldn't the ex-grappler run Wisconsin in his spare time? In Week 2 of XFL action, Ventura seemed surprisingly content to boom banalities ("They're throwin' the ball excellent tonight"). UPN's Brian Bosworth, on the other hand, is bent on putting some color into his "color commentary." In his first XFL telecast, the former linebacker said one of the gladiators played "like he's got a fire in his ass." In his second, "Boz" danced with the babe-alicious cheerleaders while urging play-by-play man Chris Marlowe to "slap my butt."
After NBC's XFL ratings sank in Week 2—and an overtime game delayed the start of a Saturday Night Live featuring Jennifer Lopez (oooh, definite cheerleader material)—the league announced rules changes to speed play. But what if XFL founder (and WWF honcho) Vince McMahon goes further, dropping overtime in favor of cliffhangers ("Tune in next week for the exciting conclusion...") and having cheerleaders mud-wrestle at midfield? I fear bad football will still look worse out of season.
Bottom Line: Punting situation
HBO (Sundays, 9 p.m. ET)
Show of the week
If the true test of a show is how it handles adversity, the third-season premiere on March 4 proves The Sopranos is better than ever.
Nancy Marchand owned the part of Livia, the maddening mother of Mob boss Tony Soprano (James Gandolfini), so the actress's death last June forced creator David Chase to write her character out of the series. In the second of back-to-back episodes Livia makes a brief appearance before dying off camera. But what's vintage Sopranos about Chase's script is its utter rejection of sentimentality. The mourners' reminiscences turn savagely candid, reminding us how indelibly Marchand portrayed the Machiavellian mama whom Tony denounces to his psychiatrist (Lorraine Bracco) as a "demented old bat."
The first episode is also a gem. Tony, wife Carmela (Edie Falco) and their two children go about daily life while ridiculously stealthy federal agents track the family's every move. Leave 'em alone, you might think—if not for a reminder that the breadwinner's business involves murder.
Bottom Line: Still a great racket
ABC (Sun., March 4, 9 p.m. ET)
Slow-paced and suffused with melancholy, this Oprah Winfrey Presents TV movie clearly has no aspirations to be escapist entertainment. But the acting and the atmosphere should hold you, even if you have doubts about the story (taken from a novel by Elizabeth Strout).
Elisabeth Shue, best known for the role of the gold-hearted hooker in Leaving Las Vegas, is excellent as Isabelle, a small-town single mother in the early '70s who is prim to the point of severity. Isabelle treats her daughter (Hanna Hall) cruelly after discovering the teen's sexual involvement with a high school teacher (subtly played by Martin Donovan). But you never entirely turn against Isabelle, because Shue makes you feel the ache of her loneliness.
Amy and Isabelle is too dependent on voice-over narration, and the film ultimately turns on a revelation that I found predictable and implausible. Fortunately it has what matters most: characters worth caring about.
Bottom Line: Sensitive drama
>Sunday, March 4 THE '70S: BELL-BOTTOMS TO BOOGIE SHOES TLC (9 p.m. ET) Danny Bonaduce (The Partridge Family, remember?) is host for a two-hour "Me Decade" tour.

Is IKEA Heaven for Children?Carolyn Castiglia
You'd be hard-pressed to find an apartment in New York that doesn't have at least one item in it from IKEA. IKEA furniture is perfect for urban dwellers who move every few years; it's so cheap it's practically disposable. Though New Yorkers used to have to schlep out to Jersey to get their flat-packed furniture fix, in 2008 an IKEA store opened in Brooklyn, quite near where I live now. I never expected that I'd treat IKEA like a vacation destination, but it turns out my daughter and I think of the Swedish home decor warehouse as our own private Disney World.
And why not? IKEA has everything from a playland for kids to a restaurant with exotic foods. Like the rides at Disney, each display area within the showroom provides a unique experience. The bathrooms are clean, in the summer it's air conditioned and you can leave with a stuffed animal souvenir!
My daughter and I have stopped in IKEA twice in the last two weeks, and both times she's really gotten into admiring their wares. So I laughed when I read Shawna Cohen's post on Mommyish about her 2-year-old son "ooh-ing andahh-ing over every trinket and sneaking colorful, bird-print placemats" into their cart on her last trip there. She says her son "skips through the never-ending maze that is Ikea, stopping to marvel at every closet organizer, bathroom mat, cookie tin along the way."
In her post, Cohen describes her son's odd willingness to lay still in an IKEA toddler bed for 20 minutes, which doesn't surprise me at all. When we're there, my daughter wants to lay on every bed, touch every piece of furniture and imagine what it would be like if we lived in each of the mini-apartments they have set up. On our most recent trip, she was instrumental in helping me pick out a pair of curtains, and I'm sure we got some sideways glances from people watching a 6-year-old doing her best Tim Gunn impression. "I think these would look better in the living room. Then again, this other pair would match the couch… Oh well, make it work!"
Maybe fast-food places and other child-friendly destinations should take a tip from IKEA: no ball pits or playground equipment necessary. Just set up a few toddler beds and a couple throw pillows and the kids will be in heaven.
Do you take your child to IKEA? If so, do they love it?


text: Snow days; there wasn't such a term in 1945. We at Hopewell-Loudon were out of school for six weeks. The townships and county didn't have the equipment to plow out the roads as they do today. We wondered how we were going to graduate on time, but we did. I don't remember how we did it, but we didn't have to go to school extra days to make it up.

Hudson, Wisconsin may be slightly outside of the Twin Cities' outer-ring of suburbs, but it still gives you easy access to big city amenities in a community that preserves a small-town lifestyle.

Fuel spill shut down NW Albuquerque roadway
UPDATED 3:49 PM MST Dec 30, 2012
Albuquerque police said a fuel spill shut down 98th Street on Saturday night -- not an oil leak as was originally thought.
Police said a tractor-trailer leaving a Flying J truck stop leaked fuel on 98th Street over Interstate 40. Police and fire crews shut down 98th Street between Avalon Road and the westbound on-ramp of I-40 to clean up the mess.
Police said the semitrailer had left before officers arrived.

Spent a week here, parked next to Lake Eufaula with 50 amp service, good water, great AT&T Internet/phone, Tulsa tv stations on the air. Owner helped us get to our site, pick it out and even offered to take me to town when my truck axle broke (causing us to be here a week). This used to be a COE campground, but the current owner is making improvements. Very quiet - almost no road noise and you can barely hear the train a mile away (not one train has blown a horn/whistle). We have a large toy hauler and it fit perfectly. Owner comes by weekly (more often if you need him to) and drains your black tank (at no extra charge) and they encourage you to dump gray water out on the grass. - Don Self

We stayed here for 1 night passing through. The lake is beautiful but we will not stay here again due to the lack of restroom facilities. The restrooms did not have doors on the stalls in the women's and were very dirty. Had to walk around several large spider webs just to get in door and also had many dirt dabber nests inside the stalls. The restroom lights were not able to be turned on in the early morning hours so a flashlight was the only light. If you camp in one of the lakefront sites the restrooms are about a 10-15 minute walk with no outdoor lights between. If you intend to use the campgrounds restrooms do not stay here, it is downright scary! - User3145

Staff was friendly and very helpful. This being the off-season, I pretty much had the park to myself. Lots of good hiking areas, paved roads for biking, and swimming in the lake. Many mature trees for shade. The bathroom could use an update and some repairs, but since I spend a very small percentage of my time in the bathroom it was not an issue. Many good restaurants in Eufala and McAlester. - rdrunner

Located up a steep hill on a narrow road. Only sight of life was a pit bull dog behind a glass door with a sign, "Beware of Dog". We looked around and nobody came to help us so we left. We found it in the Oklahoma tourist book. It is at the same exit as the Crowder Family Campground but off to the west. Looked like everyone was a permanent resident. - junkmale56

Very nice RV park... cement pads very clean and restrooms and showers are very clean as well . Arrowhead State Park Golf course is a very good golf course close to RV park if you have a toad. Also the RV park is within walking distance to fishing.
Overall a great place to stay. - NormB

We stayed in the Lake Loop Section which is not nearly as nice as Turkey Run. Due to RV issues we arrived a day late, but had called and notified them. At 5:00 on Friday afternoon our site was full of heavy machinery and downed tree branches. This despite having a reserved sign on the post. We just moved to a non-reserved site as the office couldn't reach maintenance. Lot spacing was nearby with some shade. Site surfaces were asphalt and featured a fire ring, picnic table and patio. - MThome
Dec 2015 - $23.00
We stayed at the Turkey Flat campground, which was renovated 4 years ago. Sites 1-20 are full hookups, 21-40 water/electric. Most sites are level. Sites 1-8 are pull-through; no extra fee. Not much to do here except a few hiking trails and boating, but it was quiet and well maintained. We paid our fee at the park office because they take credit cards. The camp host will take payment in cash or check. - Sempre_Estate

We liked this park very much. This park is definitely kid friendly and a excellent staff. Lot of activity for children. This is a great park resort. Oh yes, they also serve Starbucks coffee. It appears to be a new park and the sites were drive through with concrete pads. Some of the sites were close together, but when we were here, the park was not full. Only bad things we experienced at the park was the annoying train tracks nearby, that travel throughout the night. We would come here again - detkicker
Jun 2008 - $40.00
This is a brand new park, and some of what they advertise is not yet there, but they are not discounting anything. The pull-through sites are a gravel parking lot; no shade except for 1 old tree. At one end of the 7 spaces are some water only sites on the lake. The store is open and so is the putt putt golf. Carry everything you need as the store has all the Jellystone things but not much else. We drove through before we brought the motorhome up, and the wife said no way were we camping there. - Chuckl

50,30 & 20amp Electric good, Sewer is a dump on the way out. Water @ 60 psi. Wi-Fi not available. AT&T Cell Phone Good 4bars. AT&T Air Card very good. Verizon 4G LTE Air Card good. Cable not available but can get Over the Air fairly good. Site #22 is outstanding. Very wide, exceptionally long and lots of room between sites. Roads to the park are good. Interior roads look bad but are asphalt and cracked but not rough. The new Restroom near the play ground is outstanding. However the older ones are pretty sad. Laundry not available. DirecTV Satellite is accessible depending how your dish is used. Most are good if your dish is on a tripod but if on the roof may be a problem depending on your site. Discount available for Golden Age and America the Beautiful for 50%. Payment by credit card online is good. About the park. A lot of it was damaged by the recent floods. The 30amp sites are mainly older sites. Water is shared between sites and is way far away so have a lot of water hose. Sites range from very small to good in length, a little small in width for the 30amp and be careful when pulling into the site. The sites that were damaged have been upgraded to 50,30,20 Amp and are asphalt with a large pad and patio. These are very good and most are now Walk in. Get one of these if you can if you have a large RV. I would absolutely stay here again especially if I can get one of the newer 50amp sites. - TXBobcat
Apr 2014 - $9.00
A faded beauty. The June 2013 review is exactly on target. I would add that on our loop the asphalt pads are crumbling so that we had to have one side of our rig on the dirt. Leveling could be a problem. Our site, E-18, a pull-through, required a very, very tight turn for our 32 ft trailer. I should have backed into the pull-through! We would come back but it is not up to the normal COE high standards. - rncordy

Wednesday, June 12 - Eufaula Lake – Belle Starr Campground, Corps of Engineers, Eufaula, OK. The reviews have always been good for this campground, and I love the COE campgrounds, but I can see where the funding is just not there anymore. There are 115 sites with electric and some of them 50 amp and many have water hookups. The site we had was right on the lake but small with no water hookups. There was another site right to the left of us, and if any RV came in we would have been blocked from getting out but it did not happen. This is one of the biggest lakes in OK, and very windy, and it looks like it has the red clay underneath it. The nicest sites are the pull-throughs right next to the water sites C22-32, but those are first come. Reservations can be made for some of the sites. Tables to cut up your fish were at every site since this is a big fishing lake. Bath houses were not that clean, but it was in the late afternoon when we checked them out on a very hot day in the high 90's. We followed the directions, but we missed a small sign to get to the park so it took longer to get there off of Interstate 40 than we planned. Nice park, but I don't know if we would return since there are also 8 other COE campgrounds around this lake and some state parks. It only costs us $9 with a pass for the site. - gsnakehill

Probably the worst campground we've ever stayed at. Their pull-through sites are a joke, extreme ruts and so un-level I didn't want to unhook from the truck because it would be too difficult to hook back up. Trains coming by, 1-2 per hour all night long. The lady that checked us in was nice enough, but didn't have a clue when dealing with the RV park. We could have gotten a discount but she couldn't find her discount sheet. The electric hook-ups were confusing, the people next to us were hooked up to our service. We are normally not to hard to please, but this place is a disaster. Boon-docking would have been a much wiser choice. - mfcros
May 2016 - $21.00
Well, it is great for an overnight stop. If you are a light sleeper be aware of the train approx. every 2 hours and they are not shy about laying on the horn. There is a stockyard above the park, we were not bothered by the smell even though it was a windy night. You have to check in at the motel and then drive up to the RV section, the road is gravel and deeply rutted when we visited so get there before dark to navigate safely. The restroom was clean but did not have any paper products. The showers were clean but the door did not lock. Sites were hard to get level, but only stayed overnight. - Sharpe7tex

What a cute, clean and fun RV park on Lake Eufaula in Oklahoma. Spent Labor Day 2016 here and made a last minute reservation. Betty at the front desk was fantastic and most helpful. They have a whole section for people with horses and horse trailers as well. Its 10 minutes to the nearest WalMart and town. The sites are large, cement and spaced nicely between each other. Very, Very nice park, would definitely stay here again if in the area. Great dog park, two side by side, one for big dogs and one for little ones. - Okstatefanz

Too late I remembered why I passed this place by last year. Way too much noise from 69, and a train track close enough to disturb the silence.
Inside the park, I have been listening to car alarms, barking dogs, screaming kids, stereos and so far four fools blasting past my rig exiting the park.
The roads were one continuous pothole. The sites were concrete, the utilities were positioned just fine and the cable was horrible. 18 lousy channels. The dump has a swimming pool and a meeting room.
One more thing, there's a bar right next to this dump that made noise until 2AM.
This morning while trying to unhook, I stepped in dog crap. - Author

No customer service. Prior to our stay, called three different times and never received a call back. Like most parks, WiFi service can be slow. They do offer to purchase higher speed WiFi, but you guessed it...called the front office and they didn't know how or know anything about it (was on their web site). - Diane M S

We only stayed one night. We had trouble with one AC so left early next morning to next destination because one wouldn't work. It was a very nice park and I wish we had more time to spend there. Lots were spacious and offered some shade. Site surface was gravel. Campsite and amenities were clean. - Dkkirkland

This is a member owned and run park. It is in need of some TLC. I think as the members age and the park ages it is a lot to keep up with. We used our Coast To Coast points to stay here for $10 a night plus $4.50 for 50 amp. It was Memorial Day weekend and lots of sites were full. There were a lot of activities. Lunch and breakfast, plus a street dance with a live band. Quiet hours were observed and the park was quiet and pleasant. The people were all very friendly. There were volunteer security patrols. All in all a very nice park. Some sites are a little unlevel but we had no problem in a pull-through site. The pull-throughs are for overnight stays but since we had a longer rig and toad they gave us a pull-through. - houseonwheels

The park us about 6 miles south on Hwy 150, off of I-40. We had site 93 in the Lake View Circle. We had a view of the lake in a pull thru site. Very nice, quiet. Roads were good. Site was concrete. Exactly what we like trees, water and comfortable site at a reasonable price. We had good water flow and electricity. We would return. - Thirdtime

There are several campgrounds at this state park. Dogwood Drive has no views of the lake, Deep Fork campground has some with views of the lake. When we were there, at the Deep Fork Campground, they were doing road repair the next day and the campground was closed the next day so we had to leave. Register and pay at the Visitor Center on the way in. Very nice park, but wish they had more sites where you could see the lake! - elduque

Stayed one night instead of the two nights we planned. Site was dirty with trash and dog excrement. We walked down to the lake and there was a dirty diaper on the shore along with other trash. The sites are fairly level and shaded. Sewer hookups lacking covers. Yecchhh! We were very disappointed. - Givmeabr8k

We were here overnight in a motorhome. The park is basic but the staff was extremely friendly. We were allowed to take our dogs off leash and let them run in the open area in front of the sites. The site was level and there were trees throughout the campground. - Marley B Jones

The park is about a 1/2 mile off the highway so we could hear traffic constantly. When you arrive here, there is a sign telling you to find a site and they will come and check you in later. Once we were set up, a few of the permanent residences came over to welcome us to their park. Not much to do here as there are no amenities. Don't think we would return here. - Fun finders

The service was indeed excellent. We arrived a bit frazzled after driving in the rain and occasionally heavy traffic all day. The host was right there to meet us and showed us our site. We took care of the registration a bit later, which was a nice touch. This is a small, family owned park, and it feels like it. The facilities are a bit basic if you are looking for a resort; it feels more like you are staying in someone's back yard - if that someone happens to have 16 full hookup sites, about half of them pull through. For me, this is a positive. The only down side at all was the wifi was intermittent and it was slow when it worked. But at least I didn't have to pay extra for it, and I had a good Verizon connection when I needed that. So, overall, a nice little park if you want to enjoy some of the recreation in this area. - MFTDoc
