A nationwide trend? Haven't parents already made seat belts on school buses a nationwide trend? I think it might have been better to say a nationwide manadate.
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — During a 12-bus pilot program, researchers have seen use of seat belts on school buses increase among students.
The University of Alabama's (UA) University Transportation Center for Alabama (UTCA) is processing and finalizing the research data of the pilot study assessing the impact of the installation of lap-shoulder seat belts on a limited number of Alabama school buses.
The study results will be sent to the Alabama State Department of Education, Gov. Bob Riley and the Seat Belt Pilot Study Group before being released to the general public.
With 12 new school buses from 10 local school systems equipped with various types of three-point seat belts, the project involved four areas of research: review of national experiences and trends, alterations needed in the Alabama bus fleet if seat belt use is adopted, analysis of Alabama school bus crash data, and a cost-benefit analysis.
Each of the new buses was outfitted with four ceiling-mounted video cameras, allowing the research team to gather data on the level of restraint use, review the percentage of students using the belts and the percentage of students using the belts properly, and to investigate if using the belts keeps students from moving into the aisle and out of the protective compartment provided by the seats. The camera data will also reveal the benefit of having a bus aide to monitor students and will monitor time devoted to buckling at each stop.
[IMAGE]167[/IMAGE]Using the cameras during the past three years, student researchers have made more than 150,000 observations of pupils to determine whether they are wearing their seat belts. UTCA said it is pleased that the number of students wearing the belts properly has risen during the last year. In addition, there has been an increase in positive public perception concerning the installation of the belts.
Dr. Dan Turner, professor of civil engineering and the principal investigator of the research team, explained that the detailed results will not be released until the study is completed, so that the seat belt use does not arbitrarily change as the result of a news article. That would make it impossible to measure the effectiveness of experimental safety treatments.
"There is a genuine excitement in trying different safety ideas to improve the use of belts in school buses," Turner said. "Even though we cannot release actual findings at this time, we are looking to the future and are anxious to reach the goals we set for ourselves three years ago when the study began."
After a fatal school bus accident in Huntsville in 2006, Riley appointed a group to review laws in other states and interview seat belt experts. The group recommended that Alabama test buses with seat belts. Alabama lawmakers then allocated more than $300,000 for a three-year pilot program in 10 school districts. The state purchased 12 new school buses with seat belts. The research grant was awarded to UTCA.
UA said that it is the first institution to carry out comprehensive research of this kind, as there have been no previous large-scale scientific studies conducted to assess the benefits of installing seat belts in school buses. Because of this, the National Transportation Safety Board, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and other agencies have contacted UA's research team and are awaiting the results of the study to determine whether the adoption of seat belts in school buses should be a nationwide trend.

Following recent controversy during World Cup qualifying, the World Cup itself and in numerous leagues around the globe, everyone has their own opinions on how football should be improved.
Whether it's the way the sports is organized, officiated or played, there are always different changes that could help and make football better for both fans and players.
Arguably the biggest problem in modern football is the business side of the game. Ultimately the fans are paying the price of clubs being taken over and owners spending huge amounts of money to try and be the best in the world, and that is through ticket costs.
Regardless, this comprehensive list aims to point out the key rule changes that could make football a better sport for all involved.

CBNNews.com - JERUSALEM, Israel - Following last week's terror attack on the Chabad House in Mumbai, Israel has boosted security around embassies, consulates and other government offices abroad.
Two senior Israeli security officials are in Mumbai to participate in the investigation and help with security arrangements at other Israeli sites in India.
According to The Jerusalem Post, the Indian government agreed to make laptops, documents and other paraphernalia confiscated from the terrorists available to Israeli security personnel.
"The Indians understand that it is in their interest to cooperate with Israel," one security official said. "There is already good cooperation and it will get better," he said.
While Israel will not provide security for Chabad Houses abroad, it will provide recommendations to the staff at Chabad's New York headquarters.
"We first need to complete the investigation, understand what happened and then implement the necessary changes," another security official said.

Candy Chang's 'Before I Die...' comes to Milwaukee
There is something about a death that can be focusing. For New Orleans artist Candy Chang, the loss of a dear friend, initially lead to a long period of grief and depression that eventually turned to gratitude and clarity.
She wanted to know what was important, to her and to those in her around her. So the artist, known for her placemaking projects and urban planning ideas, painted the side of an abandoned building with chalkboard paint and stenciled the words, "Before I die I want to..." onto it. »Read Full Blog Post(1)

No Reply (song)
|"No Reply"
The German single release of the song, backed with "Eight Days a Week"
|Single by the Beatles
|from the album Beatles for Sale
|4 December 1964
|30 September 1964
EMI Studios
|Folk rock[1]
|Parlophone, Capitol
|George Martin
"No Reply" is a song by the Beatles from the British album Beatles for Sale and the American album Beatles '65. It was written mainly by John Lennon and credited to Lennon–McCartney.[2] Lennon wrote the song for Tommy Quickly to record, but Quickly never went along with it. The Beatles recorded the demo version on 3 June 1964 in the style of Tommy Quickly, while their regular drummer Ringo Starr was hospitalised and Jimmie Nicol was hired to take his place, but an unidentified drummer recorded with the group on the demo.[3]
The song is about a young man who is unable to contact his apparently unfaithful girlfriend, although he knows she is home ("They said it wasn't you, but I saw you peek through your window").
According to Lennon in a 1972 interview, the Beatles' music publisher Dick James was quite pleased with "No Reply":
I remember Dick James coming up to me after we did this one and saying, 'You're getting better now — that was a complete story.' Apparently, before that, he thought my songs wandered off.
Reviewer David Rowley found its lyrics to "read like a picture story from a girl's comic", and to depict the picture "of walking down a street and seeing a girl silhouetted in a window, not answering the telephone".[4]
In his last major interview, Lennon said that lyrically, the song was inspired by "Silhouettes", a 1957 song first recorded and released by doo-wop group the Rays.[5]
In his book, Revolution in the Head, Ian MacDonald remarks that the middle sixteen ("If I were you, I'd realize that I love you more than any other guy; and I'd forgive the lies that I heard before, when you gave me no reply") is among the most exciting thirty seconds in their output.[6]
The song is in the key of C major. The song form is standard AABA (verse-verse-bridge-verse), without a chorus as such, but including the refrain "No Reply". The instrumentation includes acoustic guitar, bass guitar, drums and piano.
Originally Lennon had intended to sing the higher harmony part, as this was the original melody. However, his voice had deteriorated due to excessive use, forcing Paul McCartney to sing the part, and relegating Lennon to the lower harmony line.[7]
Rhythm for the verses is 'bossa nova'. The bridge reverts to standard rock rhythm.
- John Lennon – double-tracked lead vocal, acoustic rhythm guitar, handclaps
- Paul McCartney – harmony vocal, bass guitar, handclaps
- George Harrison – acoustic rhythm guitar, handclaps
- Ringo Starr – drums, handclaps
- George Martin – producer, piano
- Norman Smith – engineer
- Personnel per Ian MacDonald[8]
"No Reply" was one of the eight Beatles songs covered by Stars on 45 on their medley "Stars on 45", which went to #1 in the USA in June 1981.
Parody band Beatallica recorded a mashup of "No Reply" and Metallica's "No Remorse" entitled "No Remorseful Reply", on their 2001 EP A Garage Dayz Nite.

Cheat Engine is actually easy, you have to get the hang of it - just go through the tutorial, which will seem totally irrelevant but its not. It only takes a few minutes to increase money, alloys or weapon fragments (the ones I did).
The higher, the fewer.

just follow the tutorial in cheat engine but pretty much open the game and cheat engine. up the top left click the little computer then down the bottom of the little comp screen click window list then then select xcom .exe which should be there provided you opened the game. go to grey market in game, choose an item with 5 or so (sectoid corpse for example) then alt tab to cheat engine, put in the number of sectoid corpses in the value box (next to hex and above scan type:exact value),click "first scan" and it will give you a list of numbers in the side box. alt tab into game again and change the sectoid corpse number by selling one. then type that number in the value box and click the "next scan" button, repeat until there is only one number in the let hand box. double click that number and it will pop up in the bottom box. click on the thing that pops up in th ebottom box and an x will appear on the left of it. press enter and change the value to what ever u like (1000 sectoid corpses equals 5000 dollars etc). alt tab into game and sell them all. This may seem long process when written like thsi but it took me literally 5 minutes and im completely useless with computers. gl an hoped this helped get you some dosh

Without McNeal, MU counting on depth
Will he or won't he?
That's the prevailing question swirling around the Marquette Golden Eagles as they head into their second consecutive NCAA tournament appearance not knowing one way or the other whether sophomore guard Jerel McNeal will be available to play.
Judging by the way coach Tom Crean was talking Sunday - after learning his team would be facing Michigan State in the first round - the team isn't counting on McNeal being available.
Not knowing with 100% certainty, though, leaves Crean and the Golden Eagles to contemplate a number of what-ifs just days before their most important, and quite possibly final, game of the season.
"I'm not holding out great hope," said Crean. "Would we love it? Would he love it? No question about it. Are we going to go into the week planning on having him? Probably not. But we'll just wait and see how it turns out, see what goes on with him. We'd love to have him but it's not there yet."
MU (24-9) was in the midst of some struggles when McNeal went down.
The Golden Eagles followed up an eight-game winning streak with three consecutive losses and four in five games that dropped them from sole possession of second place in the Big East into a tie for fifth place.
They earmarked their regular-season finale against league co-leader Pittsburgh at the Bradley Center - the centerpiece of ESPN's popular GameDay broadcast - as the perfect way to get back to their winning ways before heading into the post-season.
The day before the game, though, McNeal suffered an injury to his right thumb in practice, sending him to the sideline for the foreseeable future and MU into flux as it scrambled to try to fill the void created by the loss of, arguably, it's most consistent and well-rounded player.
To the Golden Eagles' credit, they responded even.
Marquette got its usual production out of McNeal's two running mates - 20 points from Wesley Matthews and 10 assists from Dominic James.
But it was the collegiate-high 20 points off the bench from freshman guard David Cubillan and Mike Kinsella's first 2 three-pointers in his three seasons at MU that were the real story.
Junior forward Dan Fitzgerald was the next player to step up, leading the Golden Eagles with back-to-back 20-point outings in their two games in the Big East Tournament at Madison Square Garden.
Who's going to be next? Even if McNeal is able to return, it's very likely he won't be close to 100%, leaving players such as Fitzgerald, Cubillan and Kinsella needing to once again pick up the slack.
Luckily for MU, they've now got some valuable experience in crunch time of some big games upon which to draw.
"Think about it - the last month, two months we haven't started a senior. In a league that's fairly old, we've got a lot of young guys that really competed at a high level," Crean said.
"And now, the depth of your bench becomes such a factor. You're expecting more out of guys than what they had to contribute earlier, and that experience gives them that much more to hang their hat on as we go into (this) week."
McNeal's injury, if he's unable to come back or able to play only limited minutes, will have more of an effect if the Golden Eagles are able to win their first-round game.
That became obvious in the back-to-back games they played in New York.
By expending so much energy in beating St. John's in the quarterfinals Wednesday, and then trying to hang with a motivated Pittsburgh team in the semifinals Thursday, they had little left when they needed it most.
The Panthers took advantage early in the second half and slowly but surely put the Golden Eagles away. McNeal's status as MU's top defender aside, his absence was costly in that it was one less body Crean had to use, which put additional stress on what already was a short bench.
"It caught up with us, and we knew that it would at some point," said Crean. "Our buzz defensively wasn't nearly as energetic and spirited as it was at the start of the game, and that's a sign of guys having to play a lot of minutes without a lot of rest. That can set you back a little bit."
If McNeal isn't able to return, it's going to be on James, Matthews, Fitzgerald and junior forward Ousmane Barro to carry the show. In addition to being MU's most talented players, each gained valuable NCAA tournament experience in the Golden Eagles' 90-85, first-round loss to Alabama last season in San Diego.
In that game, which was postponed 70 minutes after a bomb scare, MU used a furious second half rally to overcome a 44-30 halftime deficit and actually take a two-point lead midway through the second half.
The Golden Eagles hung close the rest of the way and it wasn't decided until the closing seconds, when Steve Novak missed the potential game-tying three.
"It's something that's not going to go away," recounted Matthews. "You're always going to remember the screen, the pass, Steve's wide-open three missing that would have put us into overtime, and how we had the momentum that whole second half, how it was our game.
"That's something we've been carrying around for a long time now."
Advancing to the second round this season - with or without McNeal - is the only way the Golden Eagles are going to be able to get that monkey off their back.
They'll learn in the coming days if they've got what it takes to do it.

Mbari: The International Journal of Igbo Studies - Special Issue: The Igbo Genocide, Human Rights and the Nigeria Civil War
The editors of Mbari: The International Journal of Igbo Studies http://www.talldrums.com/website/mbari.htm invite submissions for a special issue of the journal to be published in 2009 focusing on the Igbo Genocide. The deadline is March 12, 2009.
Mbari is a peer reviewed scholarly journal published twice a year and the voice of scholars on all aspects of Igbo life, including topics related to the Igbo Diaspora worldwide. Its interdisciplinary approach offers readers a critical view of the socioeconomic, political, and cultural life of the Igbo people in Africa and the African Diaspora. It emphasizes original research, fresh conceptualization, and new viewpoints on a variety of topics relating to aspects of the Igbo language, history, literature, politics, philosophy, folklore, culture, economy, and the role of the Igbo in the broader African Diaspora.
Before the twentieth century, humankind has been involved in sectionalized lethally genocidal violence directed against cultural "Others". These genocides generally included the extermination of massive population of people; were often politically motivated; and were mostly state-sponsored or enjoyed the sympathy of the apparatuses of the state. Despite the 1948 United Nations Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, which came into force in 1951, the twentieth century recorded arguably the most documented genocides in history. These included the systematic decimation of the Armenian populations in the former Ottoman Empire (now, Turkey), the Jewish people in Nazi Germany, Kosovans in the former Yugoslavia, the Tutsis in Rwanda, and most recently the brutal massacre in Darfur by the government of Sudan. However, one of the least documented of the twentieth century genocides was the one committed against the Igbo people of Nigeria. The Igbo genocide was a mass carnage fomented, orchestrated, executed, and supervised by the Nigerian state. The lessons of the Holocaust have led to the emergence of the "Never Again" consciousness of the global Jewish politics. Similarly, Armenians (though to a lesser degree) have been proactive in documenting and using the historical evidence of their own genocidal treatment by Turkey in negotiating their position in regional and international politics. However, unlike the Jews and the Armenians, scholars have neither systematically documented the genocidal experience of the Igbos in both antebellum and postbellum Nigeria nor used that experience in negotiating their participation in the contemporary Nigerian project. This edition of Mbari challenges scholars of Igbo studies and interest to facilitate this process.

- The structure of the Kleenex box is made from box making card that I drew the measurements on and cut with a craft knife. I used hot glue to hold everything together. Please reference patterns 1-3 in the materials list.
- Take Patterns 1 and 2 and fold over to make book shapes.
- Slot them down over the box form. Leave the cut out with the 2"x2" until last, this is the top of the tissue box.
- From here on in the fun starts with decorating. Grab your Xyron Adhesives and lets get covering!
- To add a realistic effect and make the books looked stacked, I cut strips of paper and using the Xyron Mega Runner joined them together down the edge on the patterned side and then folded them back forming a seam.
- I used the Xyron Glue Stick and rubbed adhesive around the protruding edges of the 'book' covers, place the glued seam of the joined pieces of paper along the edges of the 'book' covers and wrap the patterned paper around underneath the book cover edge and pressed down on the top. This should give you one colour on top and the colour of the other book cover underneath.
- I Put the final top piece of paper through the Xyron 9" Creative Station and applied, using a craft knife cut the paper over the 2" x 2" hole and fold back inside the box.
- The fake page effect is done by cutting out strips of paper coredinations beige cardstock and I distressed it with sand paper.
- I used a ruler and a brown gel pen and drew in broken lines very close to each other, apply Xyron Adhesive by running the strips through the Xyron 5" Creative Station and wrap around the box.
- I diecut out the subject titles using the Xyron Wishblade. The patterns were downloaded from Silhouette Studio. I ran the pieces through the Xyron 1.5" create-a-sticker and applied to the spines of the books!
- To apply the ribbon around the books, run it through the Xyron 1.5" create-a-sticker and wrap around.
- Finish by adding the ribbon bow and tag.

The ideal gas law () describes the relationship amongpressure , volume , temperature , and molar amount . When some of these variables are constant, theideal gas law can be rearranged in different ways to take thefollowing forms where is a constant:
|Boyle's law
|Charles's law
|Avogadro's law
Part A
A certain amount of chlorine gas was placedinside a cylinder with a movable piston at one end. The initialvolume was 3.00 and the initial pressure of chlorinewas 1.25 . The piston was pushed down to change thevolume to 1.00 . Calculate the final pressure of thegas if the temperature and number of moles of chlorine remainconstant..
Express your answer numerically inatmospheres.
Part B
In an air-conditioned room at 19.0 , a spherical balloon hadthe diameter of 50.0 . When taken outside on a hot summerday, the balloon expanded to 51.0 in diameter. What was the temperatureoutside? Assume that the balloon is a perfect sphere and that thepressure and number of moles of air molecules remains thesame.
Express your answer numerically indegrees Celsius.
Part C
A cylinder with a movable piston contains2.00 of helium, , at room temperature. More heliumwas added to the cylinder and the volume was adjusted so that thegas pressure remained the same. How many grams of helium were addedto the cylinder if the volume was changed from 2.00 to 2.90 ? (The temperature was held constant.)
Express your answer numerically ingrams.

Rockford Public Schools staff fanned out in neighborhoods earlier this week, making sure families have the information they need for back to school.
The Back to School Walk on Tuesday,�July 29, and Wednesday, July 30, was organized by RPS� Parent and Community Empowerment Department. About 10 staff members participated. The crew covered nearly five miles, visiting neighborhoods including Blackhawk Courts and Orton Keyes, three libraries, two health department locations, gas stations, stores and restaurants. They spread the word about getting ready for school and handed out a two-sided card. One side had information about required immunizations, school registration, sports physicals and early childhood programs. The other side listed the 2014-15 School Year calendar and the benefits of involved parents. The first day of school is Aug. 25.
The walking crew included RPS parent liaison Anthony Wilson, who�s also a track coach at East High School. I was in awe of Anthony�s ease around people. I was�not surprised when people responded in kind, usually with a smile and a handshake. A bonus during the Tuesday walk was meeting a group of young people involved in a community garden project at Blackhawk Courts.
As if on cue, a small child appeared munching a carrot from the garden.
It was the perfect summer picture. We may be thinking about back to school here at RPS, but there�s still time to enjoy these last, laid-back weeks of summer.

My son graduated from WVU last weekend. As usual local hotels take advantage of any special events at the University. The event sites were very close and it was great having our camper to entertain friends and family.The camping area is a giant parking lot. All of the utilities worked well and the staff was pleasant. If you need to be in Morgantown this is a convienent place to stay. - Shady Spring

Pretty easy to get to. Do not turn at the first sign for Mylan Park, go to the second one. We stayed only one night so were told to park along the island which was essentially a pull-thru site. Water, 50 amp and sewer were fine. Sure it is a parking lot but equate it to a nice level paved pad, with no side-by-side sites (i.e. neighbors), in a campground and you realize it is kind of nice. It was very quiet at night. - cwier
May 2015 - $40.00
We stayed at Mylan Park for one night while traveling up to Lake Erie. $40 is completely overpriced for staying here. When you pull up you contact the office and when they meet you, you choose the site you like. It's a large parking lot with RV hookups, that's it. Power and water were fine, minimal TV channels picked up over the air. It may be a great place for those attending the football games, but for an RV stop, we would have been better off staying at a Walmart parking lot closer to the highway and saving $40. Would not stay there again. - pfogleboch

The park is truly beautiful but I can only give 3 stars because of the other issues. The campers were all down by the office except for one. The bathrooms down by the campers were all locked up. The only bathroom/showers were up on the top of the hill by the million dollar RV. The manager at first said they should be unlocked. He was told they were not unlocked. Then he changed his story saying the owner told him to lock them up. Then he told us he didn't have the keys. I have a disabled husband whom could not walk to the top of the mountain to take a shower or use the bathroom. We would have stayed two nights had the bathrooms been opened. However the Internet sucked. We keep being told the Internet is good only to find out we can't even get online. Oh and watch your step, it looked like human feces around the campground. I guess others couldn't make it to the top of the hill. We just used our motorhome. We camped here at the end of October. - Emtnest
Sep 2013 - $32.00
This park is full of trees. Shady spaces, fairly level. We did observe 5th wheels having issues backing into back in spaces. They could probably improve those space by removing certain trees! We were after season, so a quiet park for us. It does fill up on football weekends. We would camp here again! - Proud Mary
Apr 2013 - $34.00
A remote campground located in heavily wooded hills. A little pricey for what you get. Access from interstate is on narrow paved road from I-68. Exit #15 and follow signs to campground. Do not use your Garmin or TomTom as they will direct you to a logging road. Gravel interior roads with gravel semi-level sites. Maneuvering can be difficult for larger rigs due to the trees and narrow roads. Sites are well spaced with good access to utilities and all worked properly. A picnic table at each site. TV and Satellite connections did not work at my site due to trees. Verizon cell and data worked in the pull through area. WiFi service was spotty. Showers/restrooms are terrible. The restroom smelled like a pit toilet. Very very quiet with no train, plane or traffic noise. Depending on who is in the office, you will be escorted to your site. Lots of full time folks giving some areas the look of a "trailer park". Good for an overnight stay. - plm

This is a good place for an overnight when passing through. I called and told them we would be arriving late and the camp host cheerfully stayed up (till 9PM) when we arrived. The campground was clean, the grass was mowed and there were good gravel roads in the campground. and they gave us a pull through site as we were just passing through. Dump station on the way out. Water and 30 amp service at the site. Nice RV/camping signs were posted from the interstate that led you to the site. Maybe 2 miles from the exit. There is a small truck stop at that interstate exit also.
This is not a resort, but a nice place to stop for the night when passing through. - eb145
Jul 2012 - $30.00
We would camp here again. Wi-Fi not advertised and not available. GPS directs to one exit north of exit to use: Davistown Rd exit. The campground can be seen from Interstate. This is a good overnight campground. It is near 24 hour gas & food and easy on/off interstate. When told we were overnight and in route, we got a pull through with WE30S that did not need leveling. Connections are tight. Maybe 10 campers are long term work campers with friendly and helpful people. Staff is great. Bathhouse and laundry are aged but spotless. In 27 days of camping, this was, by far, the best shower. No restrictors, timers, temp governors. Just powerful water hot enough to peel shrimp or cold enough to chill them - as you like it. There is, literally, room for two in the showers with a shower head on either end. This campground is a campground, not trying to be a resort or squeeze another nickel with another fee. Since camp was built the highway expanded adding noise from the highway, which is in sight. From 10: - nothing. They do not claim a thing they do not do well. The park welcomes families but does not have a pool or playground so I did not mark it family friendly, though it is. - Frank Rader

This is a very small campground that has been overrun recently by construction workers and their families. That leaves very few spaces for the traveling public. There are 2 "big rig" sites - but beware, the access road is very narrow with a big turn at the bottom. The sites are all very close together. The owners are very nice and try to do what they can to help - but space is very limited. - Cmactraveler
Aug 2005 - $16.00
This little campground is West Virginia capitalism at work. Since I am from West Virginia, I am not picking on us "hillbilles." A family has converted some bottom land into a small campground. It has a small rest room and shower facilities. The spaces are all gravel and 30 Amp. Half have sewer connections, but they also have a dump station. This campground is not fancy and getting to it can be a little intimidating to those who do not like "country roads." All that being said, this is an adequate stop off since it is right off I-79. The choices along this stretch of the Interstate are Wal-Mart or here. At least here you have connections. So you have been warned, but this may be the only port in the storm. It is clean and safe. - cheldreth

This campground would probably work well for young families with small RV or trailer. Sites are gravel and not level. No 50 amp electric (we were told our site had 50 amp but that is really a 30 amp & a 20 amp they should provide adapter), cable, wifi or sewer at sites. Dump station is near office which is at the back of the campground. Has a lake for swimming but beach is mud not sand. The road off I-68 is narrow with no shoulder. It was advertised as big rig friendly but that is not true. Entrance hard to see & navigate. All sites are backin which would not be a problem if the roads were wider & trees were further apart. No picnic tables, patios or fire rings. We are here for 1 night and will only return in an emergency. - John & Bobbie
Sep 2008 - $20.00
The guy who checked us in was very friendly and he even drove firewood to our site. We camped off season, very empty, peaceful and enjoyable. There was one or two seasonals but we were far enough away from them that it seemed we were alone. Yes we would come here often, though maybe not in season as it looks like it could be very full. In the snow season they offer sledding. It may be fun to camp here then too. - Ohiojude

Never again! Terrible. In the rear parking lot of a firehouse. Siren went off about once an hour all night. Nearby train whistle all day and all night. To get there, the roads were narrow and twisty. Lots of workers (linemen, oil workers, etc.) with their families. Semi-permanent. - mrpeepers
Jun 2013 - $30.00
The campground is about eight miles from I-79 through the rolling hills of PA, not a problem getting there but it is not your typical highway campground. The park is located behind and run by the local volunteer fire department and staying here helps support the fire department. Our site was near the end of the lot and slopped some. The loose gravel. slope, and recent rains made it difficult to level but we made do, as it was simply an overnight stop for us. Some sites are paved and more level, there are even some pull-thru sites. There are no facilities or activities as this is a simply an area to park your RV. Many of the sites had long-term residents who are working in the area. - Dave Hole
Jun 2013 - $28.00
We were traveling at night and needed a place to stay and shower, we stopped at the PA Welcome center on I-70 and grabbed some brochures. They were the only answer we got (at 9pm) so we headed there. We were so happy we ended up staying 2 extra nights. The fireman who manages the place is incredibly friendly and extremely helpful. He met us at the front at 11pm and took us back and let us pick a spot. He mentioned that if they had been full, he would have parked me in front of the firehouse and ran power and electric to my trailer. The bathrooms and shower house was pretty new and very clean. They had laundry facilities but we didn't use them as we only stayed for a few nights. Sites were level, water pressure was great and it was so quiet and comfortable there it was a treat. The only potential down side to note is we had no phone service back there, and had to go out to the road to make or receive calls. We will definitely stay here again, they have a monthly rate that is extremely reasonable. - The Bells 412

We live in Ohio and escape to our condo whenever possible. It's our favorite 'happy place'. Our three children grew up vacationing in Ft. Myers Beach and now love returning there as young adults. We treasure the memories we've made there and hope you will enjoy yours as well.
The Owner purchased this condo in 1980
One of our favorite things to do is walk the beach early in the morning and watch the dolphins swimming. They can be so playful! Another great time to walk the beach is during low tide. It's always amazing to us the ocean treasures we see and how the beach continues to change. We love sitting on our balcony after a day on the beach and watching the sun go down over the Gulf of Mexico. The view is truly breathtaking!
Hi Mary
I just wanted to take the time to let you know, how much we loved our vacation and your condo!
Your condo was just perfect from the minute we walked in the door, it was clean, beautifully decorated and we had everything we could ever need for our vacation stay! It was a huge plus having the beach chairs, umbrella, floats etc. we couldn't of asked for more!
Also a great location to pool and beach!!!!!!!
Thank you again for sharing your condo with us! Loved it!!
Nancy Diamond
My husband and I stayed at this condo and had a wonderful time. It is even more spacious than it looks in the pictures and there is a balcony off every room. There is a beautiful view of the ocean. The location is great- close to the restaurants and shopping but far enough away that you don't have to battle the constant traffic. It is also close to Lover's Key which we really enjoyed. The building the condo is in is very quiet- often we had the pool and jacuzzi all to ourselves. The condo was clean, well-maintained and the owners were very easy to work with. I highly recommend this condo and I look forward to going back someday.
Fabulous location. We stayed here for a family get together and had a wonderful time. Enjoyed walking to the beach especially for the sunsets. Beautiful even at night when the moon illuminates the beach view. Comfortable, convenient location. Will go back again. Well maintained and clean.
We had a WONDERFUL vacation in Ft. Myers staying in this condo. My husband and I stayed here with our two young children. It was so nice to enjoy the beautiful sunsets every evening without having to leave the condo (our kids go to bed early). The kitchen had all of the amenities we needed, the family room furniture was soo comfortable and there was a new flat screen TV to watch after the sun went down! The beach is just fantastic and a wonderful "walking beach" since it is fairly flat. Probably the coolest part of our trip was watching a mom and baby dolphins swim just a few feet from the shore every morning. We've taken a lot of beach vacations and have never gotten so close! One note for other families with young children: we rented a crib for our daughter and were delighted to find that it fit comfortably inside the master bedroom closet. This allowed us to separate the kids...so that everyone slept longer! As far as community areas go - we so enjoyed the pool and putting green and the group BBQ area was new and very nice! Can't wait to stay here again and we would HIGHLY recommend condo to anyone.

Armed Spring Break Babe, Angry at Cheating Boyfriend, Has Two-Hour Standoff with Police in Daytona Beach
Apparently life really does imitate art. Just weeks before the release of Harmony Korine's beach-babes-with-handguns movie Spring Breakers hits theaters, a woman in Daytona Beach for spring break had a two-hour armed standoff with police inside her hotel room.
The problems started on Wednesday when Heather Beaver, who is 21, started yelling at her boyfriend at a biker bar after she discovered he had been cheating. The two got in a fight at the bar, but Beaver ultimately went back to her room at the Sun and Surf motel alone.
Beaver found her boyfriend's gun, and begin threatening suicide. Police responded to a call reporting the out-of-control woman. The Daytona Beach News-Journal reports she was asking to see her already deceased mother one more time before she killed herself.
Beaver, a Georgia resident, then shot out off at least 18 round in the motel room. Police say some of those rounds were in the direction of responding officers.

"You had a young lady who clearly was out of control with probably over 30 rounds of ammunition in that room, with walls that are paper thin, with people on the beach, people on the street. I mean she could have come out and charged anybody," Daytona Beach Police Chief Mike Chitwood told WESH.
Beaver refused to put down the gun and exit the room, even after a SWAT team arrived. At one point Beaver told police she couldn't hear them because her ears were bleeding.
Several guests had to be evacuated during the incident, and a nearby Comfort Inn closed down its pool deck.
Police eventually had to use tear gas to subdue Beaver and end the two-hour standoff, and she finally dropped the gun.
Beaver was arrested and after being checked for mental health problems was charged with one counts of attempted first-degree murder with a firearm, two counts of aggravated assault with intent to commit a felony and carrying a concealed firearm. She remains in jail without bond.
