Margaret Awong'o lives in Lochorekaal, a village of about 20 families in northwest Kenya, not far from the South Sudan border. The villagers raise camels, weave baskets for barter, and gather wild fruits from the surrounding desert. As pastoralists, men and boys are often on the move, leading livestock to fresh grazing sites, leaving the women and girls to look after the general welfare of the village.

Today, we celebrate National HIV/AIDS and Aging Awareness Day. Over the years, advances in HIV/AIDS care and treatment has made it possible for people infected with HIV to live long and happy lives.
We've written before about the hunt for a vaccine to prevent HIV. From scientists finding ways to replicate effective antibody responses to HIV to conferences focused on the challenges of creating a vaccine, the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation (EGPAF) has been a leader in the effort to eliminate HIV through research. Now, new news from Canada is giving researchers and scientists new reasons for hope.

On September 12, scientists from China and San Diego, CA published a paper in Science showing the first high-resolution atomic structure of the CCR5 receptor, where the majority of HIV strains attach to infect white blood cells known as T cells. The team worked for six years to get a high resolution, three-dimensional image of the CCR5 receptor. If researchers can alter the CCR5 receptors, they may be able to create cells that are immune to HIV.

How they voted: AP poll (Week 11)
Now that Marquette is back in the Associated Press top 25 poll (although missing out in the coaches top 25 - MU's 23 votes were good for 28th overall), I thought you might want to see who put the Golden Eagles where - or not at all - on their ballots.
Note that a couple had Marquette on the ballot last week, but not this week. Nobody else dropped MU on their ballot from last week, although the Roanoke Times' Mark Berman kept the Golden Eagles at 18 (which was the high rank for MU last week).
Here's the complete list: (1)
King sees five Big East teams in top 15, including MU
Jason King of Yahoo Sports has put out his revised preseason top 25 and he certainly thinks a lot of the Big East.
A list of the Big East teams he includes:
No. 5 - Syracuse »Read Full Blog Post(48)
This and that: Awards, rankings, brackets
Let's start things off with a quote from UConn coach Jim Calhoun:
"... with effort, with unabided team effort, enthusiasm, you can accomplish a great deal. I keep pointing to Marquette, who continues to prove that game after game after game. Yes, they have some pretty good players, but they're not the fifth best team in this league. But they finished fifth because they play hard every minute."
Buzz Williams has done a nice job getting Marquette to the fifth seed of the Big East tournament, but FoxSports.com's Jeff Goodman gives the conference coach of the year nod to Syracuse's Jim Boeheim. »Read Full Blog Post(5)
Not in top 25, but getting more votes (and in the tourney)
If you look in the "others receiving votes" category in both the AP top 25 and coaches top 25 you will see Marquette listed.
The Golden Eagles received only 2 votes in the coaches poll (no way of knowing who voted for MU).
In the AP poll, four people voted for Marquette: »Read Full Blog Post(8)
Marquette gets votes - er, vote - again in AP poll
In case you didn't notice last week, Marquette received 10 votes in the Associated Press top 25 poll.
Well, the same thing happened again this week in the AP top 25 poll. (Marquette did not receive any votes in the coaches poll.)
Funny thing is, these 10 "votes" have all come from the same person the last two weeks. »Read Full Blog Post(39)
Lazar Hayward - stud (plus more stuff)
It is going to be hard for Marquette fans to claim Lazar Hayward is one of the most underappreciated players in the nation too much longer, if at all.
Ken Davis of Athlon Sports, while praising MU's performance this past week, notes that Hayward "doesn't get enough attention for what he brings to the floor."
Ken, I think that's changing. »Read Full Blog Post(15)
Not even the CBI for MU?
Gary Parrish of CBSSports.com recently offered up his preview of the Big East and he slots Marquette in the 12th spot, which is pretty much in line with what others are saying around the country with the Golden Eagles in a transition season.
But what I found interesting was that Parrish didn't have Marquette making any postseason tournament - not the NCAAs (expected), the NIT or even the CBI (College Basketball Invitational). Parrish doesn't include the Collegeinsider.com tournament, but I'm not even sure if that one will be around in 2010.
Parrish does have Lazar Hayward as a second team all-Big East selection. Here's what he says about MU:
"Buzz Williams was tremendous in his first season at Marquette, but this is where he'll earn his paycheck. That program-changing class of Jerel McNeal, Dominic James and Wesley Matthews is gone, and Lazar Hayward is the lone returning starter. He averaged 16.3 points and 8.6 rebounds last season, but he's never had to carry a team the way he'll need to carry this team. Making things worse is that freshman point guard Junior Cadougan tore his Achilles tendon in a preseason workout and is out for the season. Bottom line, this is a rebuilding year for Williams, and it won't get easier until Cadougan returns and is joined next season by Vander Blue, a star shooting guard from the Class of 2010 who committed to Marquette last month." (50)
Goodman looks at the Big East
Foxsports.com's Jeff Goodman has his preseason look at the Big East ... and to be honest doesn't mention Marquette other than in his predicted order.
He has the Golden Eagles finishing 12th.
Sorry, no Lazar Hayward on Goodman's all-Big East team, either.
Still, it's a good read, especially if you crave some Big East hoops news in early October. (57)
The summer rankings: MU slotted for 11th
We're still a few months away from the start of the college basketball season, but that doesn't mean people can't start throwing out some preseason rankings.
Yahoo.com's Jason King says the Big East, while not as good as last year (and that would be tough to replicate), will still be strong. In his summer rankings, King has Marquette at No. 11 in the conference.
Here's what King has to say about MU: "No team in the Big East is in more of a rebuilding mode than Marquette, which lost three of its top four scorers in Dominic James, Wesley Matthews and All-Big East, first-team selection Jerel McNeal. Making matters worse is that last year's team wasn't very deep, with four players averaging more than 30 minutes. That means the Golden Eagles' 2009-10 squad is loaded with players who have little or no experience in crunch-time situations. Lazar Hayward is an NBA talent in the paint, and the Golden Eagles signed one of the country's top recruiting classes highlighted by juco transfer Dwight Buycks and freshman Junior Cadougan, both of whom are guards." »Read Full Blog Post(9)

Eastern North Pacific Tropical Weather Discussion
000 AXPZ20 KNHC 302157 TWDEP Tropical Weather Discussion NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL 2105 UTC Fri Sep 30 2016 Tropical Weather Discussion for the eastern Pacific Ocean from the Equator to 32N, east of 140W. The following information is based on satellite imagery, weather observations, radar, and meteorological analysis. Based on 1800 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through 2145 UTC. ...INTERTROPICAL CONVERGENCE ZONE/MONSOON TROUGH... The monsoon trough axis extends from 09N85W to 10N91W to 11N99W to 11N104W. It resumes at 13N113W to 10N122W to 08N127W to low pressure near 12N135W 1012 mb to 12N140W. Scattered moderate isolated strong convection is within 180 nm south of the axis between 85W and 88W. Scattered moderate convection is within 180 nm south of the axis between 103W and 107W, and also within 60 nm of the axis between 90W and 95W. ...DISCUSSION... OFFSHORE WATERS WITHIN 250 NM OF MEXICO... The weakening remnant low of Roslyn is centered near 24N117W with a pressure of 1015 mb. Latest satellite imagery depicts it as a low-level cloud swirl from 22N to 25N between 116W and 119W. It will dissipate by early Saturday afternoon. A weak pressure gradient over the forecast waters is supporting mainly light to gentle winds across the area. Earlier strong north winds that funneled through the Gulf of Tehuantepec during the overnight and early morning hours have diminished to moderate intensity. The resultant seas of 8 to 10 ft have subsided to 6 to 7 ft. However, the respite will be short-lived as the pressure gradient between high pressure ridging over central Mexico and surface trough over the eastern Bay of Campeche again tightens tonight. This will send another surge of strong north winds the isthmus of Tehuantepec and through the Gulf late tonight, and into Saturday morning with seas building to the range of 8 to 10 ft. Seas are in the 4 to 6 ft range north of 20N outside the Gulf of California, 6 to ft south of 20N, and 2 ft or less through all but the southern entrance to the Gulf of California. As the remnant low of Rosyln dissipates, high pressure will build across the region from the northwest through the weekend and strengthen the pressure gradient to the west of 110W. This will produce a modest increase in winds across the Pacific waters of the Baja California Peninsula. Associated northwest to north swell is forecast by wavewatch model guidance to spread into the northeast waters beginning early on Saturday with seas of 6 to 8 ft. The swell is expected to reach further south to near 26N by Sunday afternoon with seas building to around 9 or 10 ft. A surface trough is analyzed from 22N113W to low pressure near 17N113.5W to 13N113W. Scattered moderate to strong convection is occurring within 120 nm west of the trough and from 17N to 19N, and within 30 nm of a line from 18N110W to 19N111W. Scattered moderate convection is within 45 nm of 17N111W, and within 30 nm of a line from 15.5N113.5W to 13N114W. The trough will continue to move west-northwest through Sunday with low chances for development. OFFSHORE WATERS WITHIN 250 NM OF CENTRAL AMERICA, COLOMBIA, AND WITHIN 750 NM OF ECUADOR... Light and variable winds are expected north of the monsoon trough, while gentle to locally moderate south to southwesterly winds are expected south of the monsoon trough through the upcoming weekend. Combined seas of 4 to 7 ft, primarily in long- period southwesterly swell is expected across the offshore waters through the upcoming weekend. REMAINDER OF THE AREA... High pressure will build over the northern waters which will increase the pressure gradient, freshening winds north of the monsoon trough this weekend. The long fetch of these fresh trades will help build seas to the 7-9 ft range early next week. $$ AGUIRRE

Sweet Rosie Music is a
In the new world of watching the music industry implode on itself and all of the confusion that arises, Sweet Rosie Music is a constant in a sea of change.
From a publishing perspective, there is no shortage of established recording artists that are looking for commercial hit songs. There is, however, a serious shortage of such songs. If you truly have one, we want to hear it. Include a lyric sheet with your submission. We need both ballads and uptempo material, either male of female lyrics.
We are placing material with 2 artists, one male, one female. We are looking for very commercial, hit single material. Production quality of the demo is of lesser importance; but make sure the vocal is recorded cleanly and be sure to include a lyric sheet. Both of these artists are highly sensitive to lyrical content. Send your best.

Could Melatonin Help Women Build More Muscle and Burn More Fat?
Melatonin is a hormone secreted by the pineal gland in the brain and because it helps modulate sleep quality, it's frequently used as a dietary supplement to lessen abnormal sleep patterns (1). However, a recent study suggests that melatonin may also assist in supporting weight management and muscle gain (2). Continue reading →

Influence of the notch sharpening on the fracture toughness of bulk ethylene-propylene block copolymers
3sdarticle.pdf (1.478Mb) (Restricted access)
Document typeArticle
Date issued2010-03-02
Rights accessRestricted access - publisher's policy
The effect of the notch sharpening procedure on the fracture toughness computed under linear-elastic and elastic-plastic conditions (at low and high loading rates, respectively) of a bulk ethylene–propylene block copolymer has been investigated. The specimens utilized for fracture characterization were sharpened using a steel razor blade and the femtosecond laser ablation technique. The crack growth initiation parameter, JIC, determined with the help of the elastic-plastic fracture approach, and the fracture toughness, KIC, obtained with specimens verifying linear-elastic fracture mechanics assumptions, of the steel razor blade sharpened samples were higher than that of the femtolaser sharpened specimens. The plastic deformation occurring ahead of the crack tip during the sharpening method seems to be the reason for the dissimilarity of the fracture values. Moreover, the strain hardening suffered by the material close to the notch tip reduces the stable crack growth resistance evaluated under elastic-plastic conditions.

BEREA, Ohio -- The Cleveland Browns on Tuesday agreed to terms on a five-year contract with offensive lineman John Greco, the team announced.
"One of our goals," said CEO Joe Banner, "is whenever possible to develop and keep our own players. We're glad in this case that it worked out, and was mutually beneficial."
"John is a solid, all-around teammate, on and off the field," said Head Coach Rob Chudzinski. "He was given an opportunity to play last year and really showed well. He's respected in the locker room for his approach, consistency and team-first attitude."
Greco, a 6-4, 315-pound veteran in his sixth NFL season out of Toledo, is now signed through the 2017 season. He has seen action in 55 career contests with 14 starts.
In 2012, he appeared in 14 games, including a career-high 10 starts, all at left guard. Last season, the Youngstown, Ohio, native was a part of an offensive line that helped pave the way for Trent Richardson, who rushed for a 950 yards, and protected for Brandon Weeden, who threw for 3,385 yards, both franchise records among rookies.
Originally selected by St. Louis in the third round (65th overall) of the 2008 draft, Greco was traded to Cleveland prior to the start of the 2011 season.
The Cleveland Browns on Tuesday signed free agent Naaman Roosevelt, the club announced.
Roosevelt, a 6-0, 200-pound wide receiver in his third NFL season out of the University at Buffalo, has appeared in 16 NFL games, all with the Buffalo Bills. His first name is pronounced NAY-man.
An undrafted free agent, Roosevelt initially signed with the Bills in 2010 and has recorded 25 career receptions for 396 yards with one touchdown. He set career highs in 2011 after appearing in 10 games with 16 receptions for 257 yards with one touchdown. He spent training camp with the Bills last season.
While in college, Roosevelt set school records in receptions (268), receiving yards (3,551), touchdown catches (28) and all-purpose yards (5,341). A native of Buffalo, N.Y., he graduated from the city's St. Joseph's High School.

The staff here were very friendly, but the camp is no great prize. The pads sit in two long rows and the road is an oval around the outside. There is not so much as one tree or shrub to provide shade or cut the glare of the sun. I was there the first week of May and the heat and humidity were already becoming oppressive. The camp has 40 RV pads, but the laundry facility has three washing machines. The only dumpster is just outside the entrance to the campground, so you have to dump your trash as you come and go from the campground. Building an RV camp is not cheap; it is sad when planners spend what has to be spent for the basics, and then skimp on the little things that make the difference between a sterile set of concrete pads and a place that one remembers as a great place to vacation. - CO Traveler

We stayed here while visiting New Orleans. The campground is very clean, well laid out and easy to maneuver around. All utilities were very good, no cable but plenty of channels to pick up over the air. Nice paved, level sites with grass between each, very roomy. Wifi was solid and laundry room has three washers at $1.00 and six dryers at $.75 for 30 minutes.
The biggest complaint is about the information given by the office. Other reviews raved about Kenny in the office giving tons of information about New Orleans including the ferry, places to park and many other things. We arrived and the girl checking us in, while was nice, had to keep asking other people in the office about the things listed above and really knew nothing about the area. We arrived late in the day and were given the welcome packet and essentially told all the information was listed in the packet. None of the information listed was correct. The ferry address and hours was incorrect, the tours and prices listed for the ITT was also wrong. When checking with the ITT office, they stated the contract for 2016 hadn't been completed yet so many tours were not even available. I was amazed by this considering we were there during the Mardi Gras season. On top of everything I was called back to the office because at check in I was not charged the correct amount for the stay. I can understand one mistake in the office, but with all the misinformation and the payment mistakes it makes it tough to go higher than bad on service.
The commissary and exchange were fine, not the largest, but had most of what we needed for a two and a half week stay. You will hear Coast Guard helicopters frequently since the pad is just behind the campground. Jet noise itself was occasional. Outside of the service the park is great. Nothing to do in the immediate area, so you will drive at least 30 minutes for something to do, including off base shopping at Walmart. - pfogleboch

Nice and new military park with lots of rooms between sites. All sites had concrete pads, which was nice because when rains it can get very messy. This is bayou country after all. Located about 30 minutes from New Orleans, but not a bad drive, but you will need a vehicle. There was no public transportation. Nice NEX and Commissary. Just the basics, but is a bargain for a safe place to stay. Staff very nice. - NavyRebel

Used the online reservation system which worked well. Entrance is a little tight for larger RVs but manageable. No sewer and dump not accessible from either side of rig and was on the wrong side for us when leaving. Sites are paved but narrow and interior roads are narrow. One long 5th wheels across from us had a very difficult time getting parked. We had to be very careful backing our 36' class A into our site while missing a site sign on the opposite side of the road. Be sure to have a long water hose as all utilities are at the rear of the site. Sites are level and have a picnic table and fire ring. Park is convenient to New Orleans if you don't want to stay in town. Not much in nearby little town of Violet. Just south on highway is a ferry ($1 for cars) to the south shore town of Gretna where more stores are. Were going to use the camp showers but floor was covered with dead bugs and curtains were broken or missing. We would stay elsewhere next time. - starwind

Very nice state park. Large sites, though a narrow paved strip for RV. Park was mostly empty, even over the Thanksgiving weekend. The laundry is very good and extremely inexpensive, $1 per load! The only drawback of this park is the lack of sewer at the sites. Even the Wi-Fi was fast and included in the price. Most sites have a bit of shade, but satellite connection should be possible at most - a very good compromise. We would almost certainly stay here again. - wandrr
May 2015 - $18.00
Very nice park. Water tested very pure. Laundry, two playgrounds, swimming pool and very clean restrooms. Park was only about one third full. Very easy access to the French Quarter. It is very obvious the caretakers of this park take a great deal of pride in their jobs. The grounds are meticulously manicured. When we asked if we could trim a branch so our canopy could open fully, a grounds crew promptly arrived to remedy the situation. What a gem !!! - Coastwatch

Very down to earth campgrounds. The new owners are very friendly and willing/eager to be of help and live on site- willing to take trash to dumpster (do not leave outside overnight).Choice of 30 or 50 amp but 50 does cost a few dollars more. Several friendly full timers located in the back area leaving front area for short term. About half of grounds is shaded with large old trees and about half in open space (great for satellite). Pet friendly with safe walking roads. Ice available at campgrounds as well as laundry area. - witchey1
Jan 2016 - $25.00
We are here right now and would very much recommend this park. It's quiet, I feel safe here, and it is only about a 15 minute straight shot to downtown. We looked at several Parks and we were very nervous about staying in New Orleans because every park seemed to not be in the greatest locations or there are several located close to a major rail switching yard which we felt would have interrupted our sleep. This is not a 5 star resort if that is what you are looking for but it has full hook ups 30 or 50 amp service, cable, WiFi (if you are close to the office). Cable is available and this park is in a safe area of town. The owner couldn't be nicer and goes out of his way to help you with anything that you need and keeps a very close eye on the Park. - sandy27

Was OK for the area. Not a big fan of the area for camping. Hot and humid for me. Qualifications aside, the campground was nice. It was clean, had power for A/C, and was very convenient to downtown NOLA. We arrived late night and had to go in the back way after-hours entrance, but it was fine. Site was level side-to-side and we had enough room to stretch out. We backed up to a bayou and that was nice. There were a lot of bugs, however. - steammaker

We love this park. The sites are long and concrete. Very spacious. All have a patio, either wood or concrete. All sites are back-ins.The camp hosts are friendly. We stayed here for a week in a 40' fifth-wheel. The only thing lacking is a sewer hook-up. We love the parks proximity to airboat rides and to Algers Point. We would definitely stay here again the next time we come to New Orleans. - oldbluejay
Apr 2016 - $29.00
Very convenient park to New Orleans area. We have stayed here several times and it seems the restrooms and showers are starting to show their age. But they were reasonable clean with plenty of hot water. Some of the sites have wooden decks that are real handy if it been raining. All sites have concrete patios with a table at the real of the site. Nothing beside the RV means you have wet soggy grass outside the door. We will continue to use this park as a base while visiting our family and enjoying New Orleans. - bamawig

This is a clean, well maintained, gated park in the inner-city of New Orleans. Unfortunately there is nothing else good about it. The rates are extremely high. It is located right next to the interstate and road noise is loud day and night. Sirens blare all the time. WiFi does not work at sites. If you are looking for a very expensive parking lot then this is for you. Otherwise look elsewhere. - Fire344
May 2016 - $100.00
Expensive? Yes. Lots of noise from I-10? Yes. Best bet when visiting New Orleans? Definitely. Full hook-ups, pavers throughout, great rest rooms and showers, pool, hot tub, and free cable. WI-fi only in common areas. We used our ATT Hotspot for connectivity. Within walking distance to French Quarter. Cab back after dark. Last year we stayed at State Park across the river. Too inconvenient to fight the traffic to drive into city, find a place to park, and drive back out. That's what makes French Quarter RV Resort best choice for us. - smitty12
Apr 2016 - $97.00
This was our third stay at this RV Resort. The rate was for a weeknights without any discount. The rate on the weekend is $120 per night. It is a nice park with cobblestone pads and all of the amenities you would expect from a resort including free ice. The location is great and an easy walk to the French Quarter. This park is in an urban setting so there is noise from I-10 and you do hear sirens late at night. However you have to accept that in a location such as this. They do have 24 hour security. My only complaint was the wifi was so slow that it was unusable. For the price you pay they need to have that taken care of in these modern times. - pillaz

This was a mobile home park that the new owner are turn into a RV park, some of the hook ups are not where most RVers are use to having them but the new owner are up dating them. Spacious
gravel sites. The nice thing is that it is gated. Will stay there when we go back to New Orleans. - alleycat
Apr 2015 - $35.00
This RV park is a former mobile home park. There are a few sites occupied with long-term local workers. There are no picnic tables or a playground here - just RV sites. Site driveways are concrete runners (pavers) and gravel. Very large (25' x 100') RV sites. My site was high & dry even after a record-breaking 3" of heavy rain! I felt safe and secure here as the park is completely fenced and has a pass-coded gated entrance. It was well lighted with high profile street lighting. The electric was very good, city water & sewer - all easy to hook-up to. As this park is in East New Orleans, it is located in a business district. I-10 highway traffic noise is somewhat noticeable. The RV Park staff is excellent to work with. Very good communications & eager to help. Pelican RV Park is situated at the Southwest corner of the intersection of U. S. Hwy. 90 (also known as Chef Menteur Highway) and Downman Road. It is approximately 5 miles east of the French Quarter. Big rigs should disconnect your towed as you have to make a sharp turn to enter the park via the pass-coded gated entrance. There is PLENTY of room in the adjacent parking lot to disconnect. When traveling to New Orleans, we will definitely stay here again! - TravelnSteve

Stay anywhere but here. This place is a cramped filthy mess, filled with run-down FEMA trailers, and right next to the horrible-smelling oil refineries. At the entrance is a run-down convenience store that looks like crack-ho central. The inside of the park and the motel were no better. Each site had sewer vent stacks sticking out of the ground emitting noxious smells at eye level. I wouldn't stay there if they paid ME $20 a night. - meltar
Sep 2012 - $23.00
This park is not in a good area. There is a gate that closes at night and we felt reasonably safe in the park. The parking lot of the on site convenience store is full of 'Ladies of the evening' up to mid morning. There is nothing to do in the park itself but I guess that's not what you go to New Orleans for. Rate was for a monthly rate while we were in the area working. It is close to the Interstate for access. Depending on traffic the French Quarter is 15 minutes away. Construction on the nearby drawbridge makes access tricky depending on the direction you come in from. The manager of the park knows nothing about the RV lifestyle. I was dumping the holding tank before we left and he said 'So that's how you dump the tanks'. Not bad really for a few days of sightseeing. - catadjuster

Fellow RV'rs please don't stay here. Not secure, as it should be. Main office was spooky. We were told that the main gate would be closed. It was never closed. Security zero. I have no idea why we stayed here other than we were misinformed. We made a reservation well in advance and they had no record of it. Stayed here one night and left as early as we could. The office staff was fairly friendly. - mywinnie1-

OK, all the previous reviews are correct. Scary part of town, so we didn't even grocery shop at a nearby grocery store while we were here; will do it when we arrive at next destination. Bathrooms were old but surprisingly clean. If you want a close destination to French Quarters and don't mind HWY noise, then this is an okay place to stay for a couple of days if you are careful and also do your grocery shopping before you arrive. It also rained two days really hard while we were here and the drainage is good. Should have been $20 a night not $30!! There were only about 4 RV travelers in the whole park; the rest are permanent workers that park their RVs there. - kemosabe
Mar 2014 - $30.00
Whoa. This is a scary place and a cat breeding ground to boot. The pool is filthy. The amenities are old and gave me the heebie geebies. Really nasty part of town, near the hwy, and train tracks. And, it is definitely located on the wrong side of those tracks. I wish I hadn't booked and paid before seeing it. I actually considered leaving and camping in Walmart but then felt I would prefer to have the gated protection of the Riverboat. Later, I wondered who I was being gated with? Felt uneasy the whole time. Kept everything locked up tight. Couldn't wait to leave in the morning. - kweega

Great little travel park owner operated. We've stayed with them twice now. Not the best area of town, but gated park so felt good about it. They have a shuttle service for a nominal fee into town. Enterprise car rental is nearby. Nice pool, however we did not use it. They also have cable and WiFi. WiFi was spotty at best. We especially enjoyed all the cats that stay around the place. No rodent problems. We'll definitely stay there again next time we go to New Orleans. - Harleyjt1

We had a wonderful stay at Jude Travel Park. The managers were friendly and very knowledgeable about the area...where to park in the French Quarter, best tours and areas of interest etc. Though not in the best part of town the park is secure and gated and is a convenient drive to all of NOLAs attractions. Our gravel site had very close lot spacing and included a picnic table. - Debbie G

This is a small park located about 10 minutes northeast of the French Quarter. The site pads and driveways are gravel with a small strip of grass separating the sites. All sites are back in and the owner will guide you into your site. Hook ups are good, restrooms and showers are clean and free WiFi worked well for us. There is also an on-site laundry and the owners will give you lots of visitor information for your visit to NOLA. We were there over Easter weekend and the owners had a huge crawfish boil on Sunday. It was fantastic with a terrific assortment of items in the boil: potatoes, onion, garlic, sausage, cauliflower, etc. It was delicious and very generous for the owners to invite the park residents to join them. - Coopsecondact

Basic RV park. Friendly and helpful staff. Sites level and easy to back into. Small clean and modern shower/toilet room. Good power, water, and sewer hookups. Not a pretty park but it is clean. Pads are gravel. Good security which is important because the location is not in the best part of town. Entire park is fenced and gated so we felt secure. Rail yard where they switch rails cars is immediately behind the park so you
hear some banging and clanging noise 24/7. Very little noise in terms of train whistles or fast moving trains. Slight road noise. Noise did not bother us. Easy to find with good signs. Excellent access to the french quarter. Uber service worked great at a cost of about $12-$20 one way. Good price. We camped there in a motorhome for a week. Will stay again. - Max21
Apr 2016 - $22.00
I liked this park because the owner and manager are committed to upgrading the park. There are several other parks in this part of town but none seem as eager to please. The sites are being upgraded with new drainage, new pad materials, and landscaping. The sites are back-in only, but that is not a problem because there is plenty of room to swing around and the sites are about 28' wide so no worries about your neighbor. It's only about six miles to the French Quarter. I plan to spend more time here in the future. - senator47

i got it working thanks heaps mate
very useful stuff could you show me some video footage of wiivideo9
how it works
i got it working thanks heaps mate
[pm me if youd like a sig]
Instead of buying a dvd case from ebay, just buy a wii points card. They are in white... but I haven't seen any wii games that don't have a white case...
Wii stuff: Modded Wii, 2 wiimotes and nunchucks, 2 gamecube controllers
Wii games: Wii Sports, Strikers, Rampage, WarioWare, Resident Evil 4, Metroid Prime 3, Super Paper Mario, Mario Party 8
Just make a small chopping movement and the ball with launch over the net. If you shake the Wiimote from side to side really fast you can volley almost every shot.

Mii Parade cheat with Wii Sports Make about 10 Mii's. Transfer Mii's to Wiimote. Delete transfered Miis in plaza. Start Wii Sports. When Mii option shows in gameplay, get Mii from Wiimote. Veiw Miis then back out with B an go to parade. Miis will arrive. Paraded Miis will show up in the crowd. You can delete tranferd miis out of the wiimote and they will stay in the parade.
does anybody have rapala tounament fishing for wii? i need help
You will want to take a look at the trouble shooting and FAQs on the web. The actual handbook stats that just clicking mingle won't do it.Originally Posted by cpalmer
"If a Mii has a specified creator and is set to mingle, it will land in the Mii Plaza. If no creator is specified and it is set to mingle, it will land in the parade and may be added to the plaza when needed."
Time will tell...

"If you want to exchange Miis, I prefer getting Miis that do not have a creator attached and are set to mingle. Why? This allows them to land in my Parade and not my Plaza. Thanks... "
Cool, thanks for that.

#88 - PedoBearFTWThe whole weight thing again. Here we go. Being a size two would make you thin, yes. I'm barely fitting into zeroes now. Just because you're not thin doesn't mean you're fat, BUT, just because you're fat doesn't give you the right to say "I have what all guys want", no, because if they wanted rolls they would go to a bakery. I understand it's a "new thing" for guys to like curvy girls, but curves do NOT at all mean chubby, chunky, "pudgy", or just plain out fat. I'm just sayin'.
And for your time, here's a gif.

It's actually not a new thing for guys to like curvy girls. These things come in cultural cycles. In the 50s, being fat was hot. Then, up into the 00s, being skinny was the new hot. Now the trend is reversing once more. Everything is relative.

Thank you so much for allowing us to stay at your property! We had an amazing time in the property which was in a great location. The room was clean, and well maintained . Check in was smooth and easy. The cleaning ladies were very attentive. We also appreciated the amenities of having a stove and full size refrigerator especially being on vacation. If we are ever in South Beach again we look forward to spending it at your property. Thanks for everything and making our vacation great!
- Katrise & Lenard
We were incredibly pleased with the accommodation and service. This condo is very nice and well maintained. The bathroom is spacious which is a plus. We had a fantastic time enjoying the South Beach atmosphere. The location is perfect. Could not ask for more. We will definitely come back and stay here again!
The condo was at a great location! Right on the strip where everything is! Val was very helpful throughout our stay. I will be back at this same exact location the next time I visit South Beach :)
We really enjoyed our stay in Rob and Val's condo at the Congress Hotel. Everything went perfectly and everything was in walking distance as far as shopping areas, the beach, restaurants, etc. I would definitely love to stay here again next time I'm in Miami Beach!!!
I have been going to South Beach on vacation for the past four years, and during this time this property definitely ranks towards the top of the places of which I stayed. The location is prime, right on Ocean Drive and across the street from an excellent part of the beach, and extremely close to the bars and restaurants on the strip. The apartment itself is clean and cozy, definitely big enough where you feel like you're not sleeping on each other (I went with three of my buddies and we had no problem). In addition staying in this apartment allowed us to have access to the rooftop pool which has a great view of the beach, and allowed us to pick up beach towels should you forget to bring some of your own (which we did) which I thought were nice perks that wouldn't be available in many other places.
All in all I would definitely recommend to my friends should they need a place to stay. If I come back to stay in South Beach in the future I will most likely be looking at this apartment again.
Thanks Rob & Val!
Our stay here was awesome, it was my husband birthday and every thing was literally right here. We could go right outside our room for, food, shopping etc.the condo itself was wonderful it was equip with everything we needed and more. The only problem we did have is with the tub it would stop up during use, and we never got the actual shower to work and the hand held shower rise had a leak. Other than that our stay here was awesome
We loved our stay at this condo on Ocean Drive. The bed was so comfortable and the basic kitchen amenities were a huge plus. Great size for three people with a spacious bathroom. For being in the middle of the main strip of restaurants and bars, we were impressed by how quiet the condo was at night. Was so great being walking distance from all of the food, entertainment, and shopping nearby on Collins. Highly recommend- we'll definitely be back!
Centrally located on Ocean Drive. No car necessary. Walking distance to all the attractions. Across from Lumnus Park and the beach.

While they don't come with the same fanfare as running backs and wide receivers when it comes to fantasy appeal, tight ends should not be neglected on fantasy football draft day.
With the NFL utilizing the tight end position more and more these days, NFL teams are more apt to pick a tight end early in the NFL Draft. Never is that more apparent than with this year's crop of tight ends, highlighted by Eric Ebron, who is teetering on the brink of being a top-10 pick (Charles Davis of NFL.com has Ebron going ninth to the Bills).
It's not just Ebron you should target, as there are some other legitimate prospects who can make for some great long-term fantasy assets.
So, in this slideshow will be the top five tight ends (in order of long-term impact) to target for fantasy purposes.
