Not Fade Away screened after WW press deadlines. Critic Robert Ham thinks it should disappear entirely.
Critic's Grade: D
Not Fade Away
The Sopranos
Telling you this doesnât spoil anything. Instead, it's to warn you ahead of time that in the five years since his award-winning mob drama ended, Chase has lost all sense of subtlety and trust in the intelligence of his audience, and that the previous two hours of the film in no way support his grand premise.
What we get instead is an impotent semi-autobiographical story that begs its audience to notice how many period-appropriate details it gets right. Lest the clothes, hairstyles and cars didn't clue you in to Not Fade Away's mid-to-late '60s setting, you get a black man discussing Martin Luther King, Jr., an apropos-of-nothing reference to Kurt Vonnegut and a poster for The Graduate, among many other emblems of the times.
Hidden within all this window dressing is a plot that centers on Doug, a young gent from New Jersey (John Magaro) who aspires toward some sort of greatness while pining for the prettiest girl in school. He eventually wins her over, thanks to his membership in a decent but ultimately hapless garage band. They spend the rest of the film cooing, fighting, fucking and smoking a lot of cigarettes.
Chase makes stops on this journey for some scenes of Doug butting heads with his traditionalist father (an underused James Gandolfini) over his long hair, Cuban heels and liberal attitudes. But the rest of the story....well, there's not much story there. Though it makes attempts at coherence and tries to delight in the power of rock music, what instead emerges is an episodic ode to the follies of youth.
In that realm, the film scores its greatest hits, as we watch Doug and his bandmates prattle on about their dreams of eventual success or observe Dougâs attempt to express a ham-fisted political awareness at the dinner table. Such scenes provide the only stings of truth and the only honestly earned chuckles.
For the rest of its running time, Not Fade Away reveals an utter lack of understanding of filmic language. The dramatic moments come out laughable, the romance feels like slapstick and its attempts at comedy are groaningly bad. Every chord Chase and his cast and crew hit turns out distorted and out of tune.

There isn't really too many "hardcore" games in the Wii library, but eventually I can definitely see Wii appealing to more "hardcore" gamers.
I think 2009 will be the year of the Hardcore gamer for Wii owners. However I think hardcore gaming is about more than just online multiplayer, hell people were cranking out thousands of hours on Super Mario 64 and Final Fantasy 7 way before online multiplayer came out. In the end though, a console is what you make it. There is enough shovelware trash and kid-friendly games on each console to make them Non-hardcore as well. And there are enough Hardcore titles on Wii to make it Hardcore. It just depends on what you buy. Don't go out and buy Animal Crossing and Wii Play and then come back and B!tch about the Wii not having any hardcore games when you could have just as easily bought Metroid Prime 3, Madworld, No More Heroes, or Zelda.

There isn't really too many "hardcore" games in the Wii library, but eventually I can definitely see Wii appealing to more "hardcore" gamers.
Actually they probably didn't officially, as it seems to be quite a new term. In past generations gaming was rather a niche market so all gamers and consoles were likely to be reasonably 'hardcore'.
Most 'hardcore' gamers nowadays do seem to equate M rated games as being hardcore and cartoony games as kiddy; even though a lot of the M rated games are a lot easier than the games of old. So games like Madworld and The Conduit should help push the Wii as a more serious console than it has been perceived by many so far.
Anyway it's all subjective, one persons view of what constitutes 'hardcore' can be quite different from anothers. To me it means games either with some substance and difficulty to them; or gamers who bust through games quickly and need a constant supply of quality titles.
Wii games - SMG, Zelda TP, Mario Kart, SSBB, Wii Sports, Wii Play, Endless Ocean, Blue World, Wii Fit, Super Monkeyball, Rogue Trooper, Shaun White, NMH, NMH2, GH: WT, Aerosmith, Zack&Wiki, Okami, RE4, Force Unleashed, Clone Wars, Scarface, PES, Tenchu, Trauma Centre NB, Madworld, Rune Factory, Wii Sports Resort, Metroid Prime Trilogy, Muramasa, COD Reflex, Obscure, Silent Hill, Rabbids Go Home, NSMB, Bully, Tatsunoko vs Capcom, Red Steel 2, Monster Hunter Tri
has anyone checked out the IGN Wii page today?? Not a single casual game!!
Cursed Mountain looks pretty sick. And I think we could forgive Dead Space Extraction if it's more than IR aiming. Twisting the Remote sounds cool and what if they added MotionPlus where you could bash an enemy's face using your gun!
In 2007 I predicted Wii Fit would sell more than Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
EVERYONE at wiichat.com disagreed with me.
As it stands today:
Super Smash Bros. Brawl: 9.49 Million
Wii Fit: 35 Million
The Wii is only hardcore in certain vids
I hope she cleaned the controller afterwards
Spoiler Alert!@TNightsOfGaming - My inane prattle
I think this whole "Hardcore" word is an utter BS. Hardcore games traditionally have been focused on being difficult. With games such as F-Zero GX, Castlevania, and Contra and Shinobi. Now we seem to be replacing the word "Hardcore" with what was formally known as "Mature" games which opposed to "kiddie" or "childish" games. Before the Hardcore redefining, we used the word "Traditional" games which was to distinguish itself from "Casual" games.
There is the end of my rant.
I tend to agree with Godwind... Oftentimes, from my perspective, 'hardcore' gamers are no more 'hardcore' than any other gamers. They just focus on M-rated games with violence and sex, etc, but focusing on that doesn't make them any more hardcore. Many of these so-called hardcore gamers only follow trends - going from FPS to FPS to yet another FPS, sometimes throwing in some other mass-marketed triple-A title. 'Hardcore' gaming, though, is represented by the gamers that thoroughly research their games, dedicate time to completing as much of the game as possible, and ultimately enjoy doing so. The Wii, while it has a lot of poorly designed crap titles with shiny covers, also has had a decent amount of 'hardcore' games already. Games like Mercury Meltdown, MLB Power Pros, even SMG - they're all hardcore in that they're well-designed, deep, and have a lot of gameplay life in the form of levels, unlockables, and achievements to attain. In comparison, a lot of so-called 'hardcore' titles don't even offer as much gameplay or additional content; all they do offer is violence/gore/graphics. The difference is that, with the current definition of 'hardcore', people tend to ignore a game's actual quality in favor of 'hardcore' graphics, 'hardcore' violence, 'hardcore' storyline and characters, and so on. In my opinion, games like Halo and Gears of War with their gritty, smooth, and violent gameplay are no more 'hardcore' than Super Mario Galaxy with its family-friendly concept and cartoony graphics, if played as such.

Yes, Wii is getting more "hardcore" content (a better word should be used), but it's unlikely that Wii is going to ever stray from being predominantly casual.

On a slightly different note, IGN has given Editor's Choice awards to four Wii exclusives so far this year, I think. That may not represent an increase in 'hardcore' games, but it does represent good games that serious gamers can appreciate, and I think this is at least on a similar pace with the other consoles..

Ola pessoal do Brazil, gostava de dizer que como outra qualquer lingua, nem tudo se traduz exactamente de uma para outra
Ingles para portugues ou o inverso também existem muitos problemas
Por exemplo Saudade em ingles "nao existe", somente podemos tentar exprimir como I miss you
I did the work for Italian language. Hope this will be helpful.
i can hellp in hebrew if you ever need
I helped with Portuguese and asked Babel Group to help with the other languages.
I can help you with translating into Chinese (mainland), but the problem is I get "connection interrupted" everytime I click on the link. What to do? By the way, I'm not a native speaker but my wife is.
wish to translate Chinese but no way to go that link, maybe the link is blocked by China Gov, , so bad.
I can translate to and from Arabic, so am at your service if needed, and yes it's my native tongue besides Persian (not the official dialect, though I do understand it).Been waiting for ages for such a project to start! all the best Erik.
i did the chinese translation, but i don't think it's good enough.
Why do we have to include our usernames? I'm translating chinese...
maybe youl get a prize if you are chosen! :)
I speak a second lauguage but can't translate the all the words to chinese. Does that count?
If you need to translate to arabic I'm very ready.
Yes, same to me :(
bump :) seriously - if you speak a second language, please participate!
What about the Irish language??
no romanian here... bad thing... i could translate in french, but i'm not sure that i can help
I can do Chinese probably...I know my flag is US but my parents are from 中国 :)))))
I guess you don't want Icelandic (300,000 speakers) but if you do then I'm in!
I wish they have Korean. I cannot be fluent in American languages. You can most likely tell.
Please do not insult my Korean talk. Koreans, message for you.: Jouyong ha.
I guess you don't want Icelandic (300,000 speakers) but if you do then I'm in!
Hey, I'm not Korean, but I'm Isabelle Lee (Bellz245)'s friend. I am very fluent in English, Russian, and Italian. I hope that you guys can understand her pain...
Anyways, may all of you live to see the day you die. TEEHEE!
Have a good time playing chess. PLAY ON!!!
I also agree with the comment above by klandri. Sometimes, people choose the "famous" languages and leave all of the others behind. I bet most of you can relate to this feeling.
You could say that I don't exactly feel your pain, because I speak multiple languages, but you get my point....
Always going to love chess,
Another thread by whoever with hardly any substance to it.
All we are asked to do is translate: " ready to play chess" in a few languages!~!~!????
Is this the kind of idiotic translation that chess.com is looking for????
Better to call a translatation company and pay for it for ouch such a simple translation.
If there was more content, meaning more things to translate, then perhaps it would be worthwhile.
Better pay for the service than try to read and select the proper translation when chess.com has no clue and waste enourmous time to try to figure out something that they have no clue about.
A complete waste of my time and more for chess.com that is still counting pennies to meet the budget at the end of the month.
This is where the money in the budget is lost at chess.com.
Useless time spent on posting a forum, and more useless to try to sort out.
I will leave the decision and conclusion to our experts at chess.com and do hope that wisdom is in their cards. You have to know when to fold...Kenny Roger..
thanks for the business advice paul. helpful as usual. i appreciate the constant reminders that i have ZERO idea what i am doing.

Trying to go through everything here.
Fuel Pressure regulator
Fuel Pump
Low voltage wires to relaybase of fuel pump relay
Dirty fuel injectors
Fuel Filter
Badly reading O2 sensor.
Now, I have no ECU warning lights come on and no codes stored. But could the o2 sensor be sending a bad reading to the ECU? It's strange cause at RR day, bad readings were after about 3k rpm, which is where the o2 sensor becomes closed loop and the ECU takes no readings from it. So not sure this could be the fault. But at idle it was tested today and although they only did a BET on it, it failed that. So I'm assuming it's underfueling and pumping out too many hydrocarbons. So still a grey area to explore.
Fuel filter has been replaced, so have plugs, inlet has been cleaned and FPR replaced. Shall be fitting another pump next week to see if that works.
Have a slight fault with the wires to the fuel pump relay base. Somewhere along the line there is a break in one of the wires which will shut the relay off, happens very very rarely. Now if you wiggle it about it'll be fine. But if there's a break in the wire then this would give a lower voltage to the fuel pump or would it only be interfereing with the relay?
Injectors I'm not sure about as the engine is low milage, not sure that that makes much difference to them getting dirty. Or if it would effect an emissions reading to the level I'm gettting.
Does anyone else have any other ideas?

Quaker faith springs from the experience that each one of us can have a direct relationship with the Divine.
Quakers find that by meeting together for communal worship we are empowered to find peace and strength for work in the world.
Quakers in Britain: Statement in response to the Referendum
"The outcome of the EU referendum and the campaigning that led up to it have shown up and sometimes exacerbated divisions within and between our communities. There is now a great need for bridge-building, for reaching out to one another in love, trusting that below the political differences lie a shared humanity and a wish for flourishing communities.
Inequalities run deep in society and some are exposed by the vote. Quakers in England, Scotland and Wales are committed to working together and with others – including Quakers across Europe – for a peaceful and just world. In the coming year our Quaker Yearly Meeting will focus on building movements with others locally and globally. We refuse to prejudge who is or is not an ally.
Turbulent times can be frightening, but the Spirit is a source of strength for all, guiding us in who we are and what we do. We take heart from the knowledge that with change comes opportunity. We will look for creative ways to find common cause, to listen, to influence and to persuade. As the status quo is shaken we and our neighbours must look to one another for support, wisdom and above all ways of healing divisions."

The L. Robert Payne School of Hospitality & Tourism Management is passionate in providing international experiences for our students. Some students are required to participate in an international study abroad, internship or shorty study program in order to graduate.
SDSU is one of the leading US schools in providing exchanges for students. More details are available at: http://www.isc.sdsu.edu/educationabroad/
"In London, friends come and go but memories are forever. The English sure know how to make some Fish and Chips!"
- Jeffery Gonzales
Study abroad not only provides an excellent chance to experience a new culture, but also an opportunity to travel around a completely new region of the world.
We encourage our students to get out of their comfort zone and go overseas to learn with an international internship. Several companies offer SDSU students such opportunities. Recently students have worked in Tianjin & Beijing, China, Dubai, Fiji, UK and Australia. One student, Ms. Fatema Qassimar interned in sales at the Park Hyatt in Dubai.
"Working in Dubai was one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. The HTM Program created the realm of possibility to take on such an amazing journey. Thanks to HTM, I committed to stay open minded, step out of my comfort zone, explore the world and learn from the diverse creative minds of all people! I Absolutely LOVED the beautiful hospitality, great relationships and cultured lessons learned from the leadership and staff while working at the Park Hyatt Dubai.
- Fatema Qassimar
Generally, these opportunities are very reasonable and in some cases free. Internships are paid or they include meals and lodging. In addition, generous scholarships are available to SDSU students to help defray the cost of international travel. Read more!
The L. Robert Payne School of Hospitality & Tourism Management is also providing students from other countries an opportunity to study in the US followed by a unique work experience. To date almost 200 students have participated in these programs. After one or two semesters of study students are able to participate in a paid internship at companies such as:

From Being Peace
© 1987 Thich Nhat Hanh
I entrust myself to earth,
Earth entrusts herself to me.
I entrust myself to Buddha,
Buddha entrusts herself to me.
In Buddhism, there are three gems: Buddha, the awakened one; Dharma, the way of understanding and loving; and Sangha, the community that lives in harmony and awareness....Buddha, Dharma and Sangha become matters of everyday life, each minute, each hour of our daily life, and not just a description of something far away....In Buddhism, the most important precept of all is to live in awareness, to know what is going on. The most basic precept of all is to be aware of what we do, what we are, each minute. Every other precept will follow from that.
The root word "buddh" means to wake up, to know, to understand; and he or she who wakes up and understands is called a Buddha. It is as simple as that. The capacity to wake up, to understand, and to love is called Buddha nature....Buddha is in everyone of us.
The second gem is the Dharma. Dharma is what the Buddha taught. It is the way of understanding and love -- how to understand, how to love, how to make understanding and love into real things. Dharma is not just expressed in sounds, in words. It can express itself in just being....This is true not only of humans, but other species as well. Look at the trees in our yard. An oak tree is an oak tree. That is all it has to do. If an oak tree is less than an oak tree, then we are all in trouble. Therefore, the oak tree is preaching the Dharma.
In a meditation center, we have a Sangha, because the way of understanding and compassion is practiced there. If Buddha and Dharma are not present, it is not a Sangha. Without you, the Buddha is not real, it is just an idea....To me, a meditation center is where you get back to yourself, you get a clearer understanding of reality, you get more strength in understanding and love, and you prepare for your re-entry into society. If it is not like that, it is not a real meditation center. As we develop real understanding, we can re-enter society and make a real contribution.
Meditation is to be aware of what is going on -- in our bodies, in our feelings, in our minds, and in the world. Each day 40,000 children die of hunger. The superpowers now have more than 50,000 nuclear warheads, enough to destroy our planet many times. Yet the sunrise is beautiful, and the rose that bloomed this morning along the wall is a miracle. Life is both dreadful and wonderful. To practice meditation is to be in touch with both aspects. Please do not think we must be solemn in order to meditate. In fact, to meditate well, we have to smile a lot....Smiling means that we are ourselves, that we have sovereignty over ourselves, that we are not drowned into forgetfulness....A smile makes you master of yourself. That is why the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are always smiling....Meditation is to see deeply into things, to see how we can change, how we can transform our situation.
Practicing Buddhism, practicing meditation is for us to be serene and happy, understanding and loving. In that way we work for the peace and happiness of our family and our society.
There are three things I can recommend to you: arranging to have a breathing room in your home, a room for meditation; practice breathing, sitting, for a few minutes every morning at home with your children; and going out for a slow walking meditation with your children before going to sleep, just 10 minutes is enough. These things are very important. They can change our civilization.

The Program Length Manager (PLM) from 25-Seven Systems is a 1RU time compression/expansion processor that can stretch or shrink audio programs in real time. It can be used to shorten the duration of programs, allowing additional material to be inserted with no loss of content, or stretch short programs so they precisely fill their allotted time slot. The PLM does this without pitch change, artifacts or glitches at various speed changes.
Out of the box the unit is easy to set up, and the front panel is easy to read and understand. Viewing the front from left to right you find the input level meter, consisting of four LEDs. Next is the LCD display to show information on the current stretch or shrink session and menu displays. To the right of the LCD are the cursor buttons to navigate around the LCD, the red X (cancel) button, which exits a current menu without making any changes, and the enter button displayed as a green checkmark in the center of the cursor buttons. To the right of these buttons are the buffer, play and reset buttons used for the shrink and stretch sessions.
On the rear panel is the IEC power input (universal input 100-240Vac). There is an Ethernet port used for remote control via Web browser, serial remote control over IP, and synchronization to a network time server. There is a serial control output and GPIO (parallel) control output; however, I do not use these. Next are the digital and analog ins and outs via XLR connectors, which can be set to AES3 or S/PDIF. The analog and digital XLR inputs and outputs are wired to bypass relays, so if the power fails, incoming audio is connected directly to the outputs via passive bypass.
At Radio Free Asia we needed to test the PLM with programs in our nine broadcast languages. We broadcast in Burmese, Cantonese, Khmer, Korean, Lao, Mandarin, Tibetan, Uyghur and Vietnamese. Because these languages all have different tone, pitch and vernacular qualities they needed to be tested separately, at different stretch and shrink times and ratios, to determine the amount of stretch and shrink that could be performed. The results, along with the control audio, were given to a representative from each service to listen to and grade. The listeners were not told what they were listening too, they were simply told to listen and rate the file to let us know if it was broadcast quality. Using the most critical examinations we discovered that in our languages we cannot push the PLM past a 7.5 percent shrink or expand. This allows us to stretch or shrink a 60-minute show by up to 4.5 minutes without the listener being able to audibly tell anything was done to the show. Out of curiosity, we also did our own tests in English and discovered that we could go up to 10 percent with no ill effects.
Stretching and expanding a file in the PLM can be set up very quickly. To stretch a file simply set the input time or the length of the original file, the output time or the desired length, and the rate at which to perform the stretch or shrink. Once everything is set up the play button flashes. Start the source audio and hit the play button on the box at the same time and you are on your way.
To expand a file, again set the input and output time as well as the percentage rate of the stretch. Instead of the play button flashing, the buffer button flashes. The source needs to be started before the actual broadcast time. If the program is being stretched by 3 minutes, the audio source needs to be started at least 3 minutes before going to air. When the source audio is started, the user also engages the buffer button. No audio will come out of the PLM until the buffer for the stretch has been met. When this happens the green play button will flash. Once play is pressed, the PLM will play the audio and begin to shrink the program to fit into the set time.
-- continued on page 2
Audio examples
Here are some clips of audio files that have been processed by the PLM. These clips are in Korean.
Original File - 1
File 1 expanded 10%
Original File - 2
File 2 shrunk 10%
The PLM can be used on the fly in a broadcast to squeeze in a news brief or a promo. To do this, route the live show through the PLM. When the news brief or promo needs to be inserted, press the buffer button. Now input audio is held (recorded) in the PLM buffer, and the inserted audio can be aired. Once the inserted audio is finished, press play and the show resumes from where it left off. The remainder of the show will now be shrunk to fit the allotted show time. You can adjust the rate at which the show will be shrunk with the up and down arrows.
The PLM will enable our show producers to not have to worry as much about hitting an exact time on their pre-recorded shows and focus more on the content of the show. In its short time here at Radio Free Asia we have had the opportunity to use it on air for two different language services shows. In one case, we were asked to insert a three-minute music piece into a program that was already 60 minutes, its allotted time. We were able to shrink the program in real-time so that the 63-minute source program was able to fit in the allotted time slot. In the other case, a 60-minute program was almost 3 minutes short. We expanded it in real-time to a full 60 minutes as it was being broadcast.

Among the student-athletes recognized by the league are five Broncos, seniors Andy Bettles and Nathan Sereke, as well as Garrett Patton, Thomas Tenreiro and Brendan McClain. All five were named to the 2014 All-MW team as voted on by the conference's eight head coaches.
Andy Bettles earned postseason honors for the fourth year in a row and the fifth and sixth awards of his career. The senior from Somerset, England, was named to the Mountain West All-Conference team for both singles and doubles. He finished the regular season last Saturday with a 23-14 singles mark while playing most of the dual season at No. 1 in the lineup.
In doubles he went 23-7 while competing the majority of the season with sophomore Thomas Tenreiro as they split time on courts one and two during spring duals. Bettles' previous postseason honors include: 2011 Western Athletic Conference Freshman of the Year, 2012 All-MW in singles, as well as 2013 All-MW honors in singles and doubles.
Senior Nathan Sereke is also a repeat honoree this year earning All-Mountain West recognition for singles. The native of Stockholm, Sweden, went 15-12 overall and 15-10 in duals while playing primarily on court two. He earned MW Player of the Week honors on March 26. Sereke is not a stranger to postseason recognition having earned all-conference doubles honors three times 2011-13, in addition to All-MW singles recognition last year.
Thomas Tenreiro also earned All-Mountain West honors in doubles for his play with partner Andy Bettles. The duo went 18-6 together and 16-5 in duals matches. The Tenreiro and Bettles tandem went 7-1 at No. 1 -- including 3-0 at No. 1 in MW play -- and 9-4 on court two. The sophomore went 21-7 in doubles competition on the year. This is the first postseason honor for Tenreiro who is from Miami, Fla.
Junior Garrett Patton and freshman Brendan McClain were named to the all-conference team for their doubles play going 16-10 together on the year and 9-8 during spring duals, playing primarily at No. 1. These are the first postseason honors for either player.
The Broncos open the Mountain West Championship tournament at Fresno as the No. 1 seed and will face the Utah State Aggies Thursday morning in the quarterfinal round.

Well this was kind of short but It does start off pretty fast and while the music was pretty good it did seem kind of "DISTORTED" maybe theres something you can do to clear up the distorted sound from the music other then that this was notbad.

-2/10 for using Tails
I kinda HAD to use Tails, for I am Tails Lock. And he's pretty much the main character of this series that I thankfully never made. Man I was such a noob when I made this.

really good. I like most of the clock characters.
I assume you're actually referring to Ultra Super Saiyan Trunks (or whatever the name of thta form is). He sure does look like Broly, especially without the body. I made it for a movie where I'd have Trunks in it, I forget what happened to that idea.

It's me, yet again
I know this was probably a joke flash, but I thought it was cool to see all those designs of the locks and stuff at least! Just keep on working, and I'm sure you could make really good flash!
actually this was not a joke flash. I tired quite hard, but everything is traced so this movie is really just an embarrisment to me.

The park has kind of a dilapidated look to it, probably from the permanent residents. Still, it was quiet, easy to get to off the I-55 and easy to navigate through. The sites were very level, though a little short, with a nice amount of space between trailers. Despite the name, this park is 20 miles from Memphis, so if you are travelling I-40, its not convenient for an overnight. The customer service was friendly but inept, and office hours are very short. Cell signal is great, and the free wifi is very good. This is a place to stay for an overnight, not a long stay. - KAP99
Jun 2015 - $25.00
Needs maintenance. Office hours are very short, no one seems to be around if there is a problem. Electric cord hanging at about 4 feet from ground between pool and office and pool is not very clear and has chipped paint. Park is quiet, not many actual campers here. Many picnic tables would be better put to rest, makes park look unkempt. - jake rocky jj

Park not exactly as photos on their website. Friendly staff, but on Saturday out of the office for several hours. The long term residents do not all take care of their old trailers, not connected as would expect, odors from the neighbor's site. The dog owners do not all pick up as there was poop close to our rv. Internet was ok. Will not come back here. - Liz & Bob

This is an Army Corp of Engineers park and quite nice. We found maneuvering with our 30 foot travel trailer pulled by a pickup a bit tight and most of the campsites would have been too short to allow us to park without unhooking but we found one just long enough. We didn't see any official people at all and everything is done on the honour system at a kiosk. It was really quiet and nice. There is a wonderful children's park at the picnic site nearby and some really nice walking trails easily accessible from the campground. There is a also a nice wide ramp to get your boat into the water. We saw many birds and an armadillo and heard coyotes. We also saw a rattlesnake on a trail (it took off as we approached) so be careful with dogs. This place is a bit over mowed and suburban looking for my taste. Also it is obviously visited during the day by city folks from Memphis proper. We felt a need to watch our stuff a bit more closely than we otherwise would during the day due to traffic of day visiting strangers nearby. - Judy Birchland

Campground is part of COE Lake Arkabutla in northern Mississippi. It is about twenty-five miles south of Memphis. We stayed 3 nights and used it as a base to visit Memphis. Easy access to I-69 and I-55 and Tunica casinos. 8 miles south of I-69. No internet and very poor cell reception. Lake is beautiful and campground is right next to the lake. Probably would not stay there again unless lake use was the reason. Federal senior pass rate. - Cheeph
Feb 2011 - $18.00
The park was overall fairly nice. It was only us and two other campers at the time and both others appeared to be longer term. Facilities were pretty clean and everything worked as advertised. The lake water level was really low by the campground, but I think it will fill up later in the season.I walked to the playground and it was really nice. Lake levels by the boat ramp were up and there was a couple of boaters out. Overall it was a good state park. There are very wooded sites however not a lot of level ground around the site, as the RV pads seemed built up. We were mainly here to shake out the new RV. - Hallock36

This is a nice COE park. Our site was 75. Nice paved driveway, huge concrete pad with picnic table. (We had 2 tables at this site.) Fire pit was at the back of our camper about 30-40 feet. Grill was on the concrete pad with picnic table. The bathrooms/showers were nice and clean. Showers were nice and HOT. The only reason I didn't rate higher was do to the upkeep of the grounds. Needed mowed and some tlc. Part of this was due to the recent flooding. - Gary Stanton

We stayed there because of the Golden Age pass but like almost all COE campgrounds you get a lot for your money no matter what you pay. Verizon was weak but with the amp and antenna we got by. Very clean and level and large sites. Busier than I would have thought for Nov. still lots of empty sites. The sites have been improved and sit a little high with steep drop to the picnic table. Would definitely stay there again and again. - rhianna

As detailed in previous reviews this is a very clean, well maintained RV park. The sites are a bit close together but angled in such a way that the closeness is not a problem. Large rigs with a toad will find some of the corners a bit tight but doable. The utilities are at the rear quarter of the site and require long hoses for the sewer and water if towing. Cable is available with 27 somewhat grainy stations. Satellite can be done from any site and OTA produced 18 digital channels. The WIFI is totally useless as it keeps dropping you after a few minutes of connection, or it will not let you connect with the internet at all. As mentioned in another review the park sits in the departure path of two runways from Memphis Intl airport which can be quite annoying. All in all the nightly rate is a bit high. - lllkrob

We stopped here for an overnight on our way south and were quite impressed. Here are my notes from this park:
- The park features concrete sites, many of which are level (some not so much).
- The water connection is a bit low to the ground, but workable.
- We used 20' of sewer hose, as the connection was near the back.
- The park is neat and clean with very few signs of trashy campers.
- Roads are paved and easily accessible. It is easier if you disconnect your car in front of the office.
- The playground was small but adequate. Our son enjoyed it.
- Pool was very nice and clean. There was a separate enclosed hot tub, which we didn't use.
- The park is located at the back of a subdivision, and we felt quite safe.
- The staff and other RVers were friendly.
- Grass was very green and well maintained.
We look forward to returning to this first class park to stay a bit longer. - dad2aprincess
Sep 2016 - $43.00
Nightly rate was $45. Discounted $5 for military retired. Added $3 for third adult in our party. Excellent amenities, service, landscaping, large dog park area. All roads and sites are paved and level. Everything is very well maintained. Did not use the workout area as it is across the street from the office/pool/showers, in the other half of the RV park. IF there was a complaint, it would be the lack of shade (trees). But, the staff is working on that, too...saplings are planted at nearly every site. Right now, this park is PERFECT for an overnight stop, or jumping off point for day trips into the Memphis area. From what I could see, not much for kids to do, except the pool. No campfires due to ordinances. And, to show you how reviews are in the eye of the beholder, my wife noted that the park is just across I-55 from the flight path into Memphis Intl Airport; said she heard airplanes "all night long" -- I didn't hear a thing! - Rokitman

This is absolutely the finest campground we have stayed at. The outstanding feature is the washroom and shower facility. Wow! The sites are pull thru and spacious with full hook ups. Easy to get to, short trip off the interstate and also close to WalMart.
I would say if you are going anywhere near Memphis or within 50 miles, definitely to there, the showers are worth the trip. I even took photos of the washrooms and shower just in case I could post them in a review.
We have stayed at other Jellystone Parks, but none are as nice as this one. - David34
Jun 2016 - $59.00
We have stayed here many times and have come to know what to expect. Clean park, paved roads and RV sites, and reliable services. This time around we did notice that the long-term resident population seems to have increased but it doesn't appear to have affected the park in a negative way so far. You can't go wrong here for a short stay. - Paul Goodspeed
May 2016 - $55.00
This is a very nice and well maintained RV park. We will return. Site was level, hookups worked great, wifi was acceptable. We were able to pickup lots of local digital TV stations on the antenna, but the cable has a wide variety of analog (no HD) channels. This is a great place for kids as they have an air filled jumping pad, two play grounds, and very nice pool. Our grand kids had a great time visiting us at Jellystone during our visit with them. The only drawbacks to the park are; people do not obey the 5 mph signs; people don't follow the one way signs; construction worker staying there coming and going all hours of the night on weekends in loud trucks, daily Memphis airport traffic at 4:00 AM; the rates charged for camping; no discounts of any kind not even military. While the park is very nice and well located, it is quite high. As long as you can handle these things, it's a great place to stay. - Sigohigo

Now this is what an RV Park should be. Spacious level sites with concrete pads, grass, picnic tables, "night" lights at all sites, and trash receptacle at each site emptied daily. Bathrooms and showers were spotless. The clubhouse was spacious, clean, and included pool table, coffee, vending, and television. Outdoor seasonal pool with covered patio and tables. Dedicated pet and children area, playground, and ball courts. Also, had an hourly shuttle to Harrah's casino. Gated entry added to the security. We stayed 4 nights, and ventured into Memphis (20+ miles) and Tunica area. Normal rate is $14 but we were comped our stay by Harrah's. Most of the sites were empty this time of year. Staff was extra friendly and helpful. Great stay. Would come back here any time. - MissMyGolden

Very expensive for what is there- no pool, mostly permanent camper trailers, evidently it is on the flight path to Memphis airport - from 4:00am to 7:00am continually landing flights every 4-5 minutes ! - User2272

We decided to try this park for a change of pace from the other area parks we have stayed in over the years. It was the last week of October and the park was almost full of extended stay customers. I saw only a couple empty sites and noticed no other customers who appeared to be transients. We had a fairly level, FHU, pull-through with 60+ channel cable TV. There are 4 rows of sites in this park - the 2 outer rows are back-ins and the 2 inner rows are pull-throughs. Even though the sites are not that small, the park feels cramped because it is so full. I was unable to connect to their Wi-Fi. The office building contains a small laundry and two separate unisex bathrooms. There is no pool and I did not notice any other recreational facilities. No map of the park was given at check-in. Yes, there is a lot of airplane and jet noise. The park is behind some businesses on a commercial and retail road. There is a large supermarket across the street. This park is OK, but the Wi-Fi problem and noise are big negatives. - Jerry S

In town, close to freeway, easy on/off. Paved roads with gravel sites and patios. Just long enough for our 37 foot m/h. Not too close to neighbors. Power was low at times, water and cell (AT&T) was good. Satellite friendly, shopping, restaurants close by. Airport nearby. LOT of noise at 3 - 4 in the morning (could not sleep throught it) and again at 3 - 4 in afternoon. OK park, but the plane noise will make us look elsewhere next time. - kmgulf

We stayed at this Campground to attend the Georgia/Ole Miss football game in Oxford with some friends. The campground itself is nice. We were on site 88 which was shady, roomy, fairly level, and paved. The complaints I have really don't have anything to do with the facilities. First complaint, the gnats are insane! We did everything we could think of to try to keep them away, but had no luck. We spoke with our neighbors who camp here frequently, and they said that some days/evenings are worse than others. They were bad the entire five days we were here! My second complaint has to do with some of the boaters on the lake. If you're looking for a peace and quiet, you'd better look again. There was one boat that was so loud, it was driving us crazy! He circled the cove over and over, all day long! Again, both complaints are no fault of the campground. We have AT&T phone service and had excellent reception. - Campdog41

Clean and quiet. It was a Sunday however. Our site (92) was super spacious. Most sites appeared well spaced with large grassy areas. Our site was paved and level. Check-in was simple and quick. Sewer connection would give it a 10. The overall campground had a lot of trees but our camper area had no shade. - Hipcrip

We were going to stay here based on reviews but when we arrived the park was almost empty and appeared very run down. A lot of sites share water and requires you to have a long water hose. Our first impression was bad so we moved on down the road to another campground. This was only the second MS state park we went to and it did not compare to Lefluers Bluff in Jackson which we liked very much. I would not return to this park again. - Zoom45V

Well I made a reservation at the wrong place. For $5 more a night I could have stayed at a much nicer park. Full hook ups 50 amp , water sewer and a WiFi that is pretty good. Nice people here but park needs major work.
Site was fairly level and owner picked one to get good satellite but I don't think they know I need a clear shot due south and there is a big old beautiful oak tree right in the path. Good news pulled in 20 stations or so of antenna. I would not stay here again. - signaloil

This is an old park and it shows its age, but not in a bad way, just a little rough around the edges. The owners are very nice people. They compensate for the size of the sites by limiting occupation to every other site, which works well, giving every one a bit of grass and comfortable picnic table space and ample parking. Very dog friendly, with lots of nice walking and play areas. The neighborhood has its noisy moments, but it IS in town and I'm here on a weekend. - Spike in FL

Rate was for 3 Adults. Great location right there at Heartbreak Hotel and Graceland. Have stayed before and always chose this location to do our sightseeing. Good pool, excellent wi-fi but poor TV channels. Mens bathrooms were good but ladies showers were disgusting with sewer bugs flying around and grout all out of the tiles. A definite health risk. They need to be renovated immediately. Good laundry. Shuttle bus to town available from the Heartbreak Hotel. We stayed one week before Elvis Week so was busy with impersonators performing in the marquee by the Boulevarde. Great atmosphere. We stayed in 38ft motorhome with tow. - OzFrosty

A Bull once escaped from a Lion by entering a cave which the Goatherds used to house their flocks in stormy weather and at night. It happened that one of the Goats had been left behind, and the Bull had no sooner got inside than this Goat lowered his head and made a rush at him, butting him with his horns. As the Lion was still prowling outside the entrance to the cave, the Bull had to submit to the insult.
"Do not think," he said, "that I submit to your cowardly treatment because I am afraid of you. When that Lion leaves, I'll teach you a lesson you won't forget."
Take that, subspace.

In the night of the, the primary election, the night you won the primary, can you talk about that night, can you talk about that, and the feeling, and what you saw when you went outside, and also when you went downtown?
Well, in the downtown area, as, uh, it happens we were, we were near the, the high level bridge. And this is a very wide open business area. And I don't know. There must have been ten thousand, people down there. And as we came outside, they had heard the news. And, and, uh, people were laughing and, and literally dancing in the street and, and hugging one another. And, crying, some of them, from the emotion of the moment. And when I came out they just all closed in on me and, and it was sort of a scary moment, but you just realize that this was an outpouring of love and affection and, and happiness at the moment. It was extraordinary to have a--I often tell people the only just spontaneous demonstration like that I'd seen in my lifetime was when Joe Louis defeated Schmeling in the, the second, in the second fight, and, and the Black community just turned out. Just so happy. Everyone had identified with that struggle between the, the exponent of Hitler's Aryan supremacy and this Black American.

Dior Abricot Fortifying Cream for Nails may be pricey, but it's absolutely effective. It has a creamy, almost tacky, consistency that makes it easy to spread across dry, cracking cuticles and nails. You can start feeling your skin being lulled back into a state of smooth, hydrated bliss shortly after applying.
2013 Best Budget Cuticle Treatment
Burt's Bees Lemon Butter Cuticle Cream is hydrating and soothing on dry cuticles and nails. It uses a combination of sweet almond oil, beeswax, vitamin E, and cocoa butter to do so. It smells like lemonade–sweet, lemony, but it's not synthetic. There's a little tartness still left, so it's not cloyingly sweet. Because it doesn't immediately dry down, it's best used at night, which is what's recommended, and I always wake up with hydrated, soothed cuticles (and wherever else I put it). In a pinch, it can also help moisturize dry spots as well as smooth flyaways.
2013 Best High-End Quick Drying Coat
When I really need my polish to dry down in a hurry, Cult Nails Wicked Fast does a great of locking in my polish, giving me a shiny finish, and keep my polish from chipping.
2013 Best Budget Quick Drying Coat
Sally Hansen Insta-dri is a really nice quick-drying coat that cuts the drying time down quite a bit while also providing the added benefit of chip-resistance! If there's one brand that knows nail treatments and top/base coats, it's Sally Hansen.
2013 Best High-End Top Coat
On a Clear Day dries quickly and leaves behind a beautiful, high-gloss shine. It wears well and helps extend the life of my manicure!
2013 Best Budget Top Coat
If you want ultra-shine, Seche Vite is perfect. It gives nails a beautiful, fresh, and shiny look. It's a thicker top coat, so it also works well for evening out the surface of bumpy polishes (like when you've layered glitter over a base color). It helps keep nails looking fresh and shiny, and it also helps prevent chipping.

The boys of NASCAR did a two-step this weekend and ended up in Texas for the Samsung Mobile 500.
As they say, everything is indeed bigger in Texas, including the momentum teams such as Roush Fenway Racing and Hendrick Motorsports earned after wiping the floor with the rest of the field Saturday night.
But for every upward swing in momentum, there was a downward spiral as well. Several other teams, including one very near and dear to the heart of Hendrick Motorsports, struggled badly at Texas and lost lots of ground.
It may be a day late, but "Five Good, Five Bad'' is just as good as always this week. Who scored big and who got scorched in Texas? We've got you covered!

Adam Lucas first interviewed long-time Tar Heels radio play-by-play announcer Woody Durham when Lucas was a teenager.
"In high school, I was assigned to do a biographical paper on someone I thought was important,'' said Lucas, now the publisher of Tar Heel Monthly and author of six books about North Carolina athletics. "While everybody else was doing Abraham Lincoln or someone like that, I did Woody Durham."
So naturally, Lucas was thrilled when Durham, who retired in 2011 after serving four decades and calling more than 1,800 football and basketball games as "The Voice of the Tar Heels," chose Lucas to co-author his book, "Woody Durham: A Tar Heel Voice".
"I've always been a big Woody Durham fan, and he's been a big part of my Tar Heel life. And who in that world would not want to hear Woody tell 40 years worth of stories?" Lucas said.
Durham and Lucas met between 20 and 25 times -- and for a couple of hours on each occasion -- as Durham recalled favorite moments with coaches and players, key games, and important stories he witnessed first-hand in UNC athletics history.
The memoir will be officially released in early September, although it is already available online at Amazon.com.
I recently caught up with Lucas to preview the book:
Q: As a guy who first interviewed Woody Durham back in high school and has known him for a number of years, what was the one question you wanted to get answered in this book?
A: Well, I think especially at the time we were doing this, everybody wanted to ask him how this retirement thing happened, and what the order of succession was supposed to be. I was personally interested in that. Beyond that, in a broader area, I've always wanted to know what his relationship with Coach [Dean] Smith was like, just because they did work together for so long. And Coach Smith was not exactly an open book, so to be able to talk to somebody that had such access to him for such a long period of time was interesting to get a more full portrait of a man that was obviously very important to the Carolina world.
Q: What was the most interesting story he told to you?
A: I think some of the stories he told of going on the road with the basketball team, and especially in an era where there were some different rules about how close you could get to those players. There was a time when Woody and [his wife] Jean could have Mitch Kupchack over for dinner, and that was no big deal. That was something he did just to be friendly.
… And some of the overseas trips -- at one time, the basketball team was going overseas to some crazy places a lot. I love the story Woody told about going to practice on an air base in Germany, and Coach Smith told his team that they would stay there until they signed every autograph, and this was on Christmas. He said, 'You're here, making these people's Christmas, and you're going to stay here and sign every autograph.' It was nice to see another side of Carolina basketball.
On the football side, I had never realized how close Tom Osborne had come to being Carolina's football coach.
Q: What else might surprise people?
A: I think readers will want to hear Woody talk about Wes [his son], and whether Wes was ever interested in being the next Carolina radio voice. Everybody has been really pleased with how Jones [Angell, who replaced Durham on the airwaves] has done, but there was that week or so where people thought it would be Wes. So I think just reading how that all unfolded will be interesting to people.
Q: Why should people want to read this book?
A: I don't think it's just Woody's story, it's the story of 40 years of Carolina athletics. He was there for everything that happened over the last 40 years, and that's what interested me, even moreso than Woody's story. For 40 years of Carolina athletics, he was the only one who was there for all of it -- football and basketball. And there was a lot of stuff that happened in the last 40 years, especially the last 10 or 15. So reading his perspective on this, I think, is something you can't get anywhere else.

Assisted-suicide laws lead to elder abuse
Laws allowing assisted suicide are a recipe for elder abuse, an issue The Times does not mention in "Robbinsville woman, 91, pleads for dignity in death, begs for right to die" (June 20).
A 2009 report by MetLife Mature Market Institute describes elder financial abuse as a crime "growing in intensity." The perpetrators are often family members, some of whom feel themselves "entitled" to the elder's assets. The report states that they start out with small crimes, such as stealing jewelry and blank checks, before moving on to larger items or coercing elders to sign over the deeds to their homes, change their wills or liquidate their assets. The report also states that victims "may even be murdered" by perpetrators.
With assisted suicide laws in Washington state and Oregon, perpetrators can instead take a "legal" route by getting an elder to sign a lethal dose request. Once the prescription is filled, there is no supervision over the dose's administration. Even if a patient struggled, who would know?
Last year, a bill that would have legalized assisted suicide was defeated in our Parliament, 228 to 59. When I spoke with lawmakers who voted against the bill, many voiced the opinion that our government's efforts should be focused on helping our citizens live with dignity, rather than developing strategies to get them out of the way.

Through scientific inquiry, we can glimpse face of God
It must be disheartening when die-hard but intellectually honest "evolutionists" are confronted with the reality that years of research have left them without confirmation of what they had previously insisted were the "facts."
Could we not applaud them as true to scientific study if they just admitted that all is very much up for debate and change?
Here are some quotations from scientists that may help them with their fears:
"Science brings men nearer to God." -- Louis Pasteur
"Let no one enter here who does not have faith." -- Max Planck
"The greatest problem with science is the lack of soul in the modern scientific conception of the world." -- Wolfgang Pauli
"I am not interested in this phenomenon or that phenomenon. I want to know God's thoughts -- the rest are mere details." -- Albert Einstein
"God reveals himself in the orderly harmony of what exists." -- Albert Einstein

Don't let them get away with shutting down NJN
Gov. Chris Christie's comparison of NJN to Soviet state-controlled media is a baseless attempt to con Republicans into supporting the shutdown of New Jersey's only televised source for state news and information ("2 lawmakers attempt to block NJN deal," June 22).
It doesn't take a Rutgers political scientist like Ross Baker to tell us that New Jersey is ignored in New York and Philadelphia news. NJN's recent coverage of historic pension and benefits reform protests illustrates this fact. According to news reports, NJN provided more than double the coverage of Philly's Action News.
Why should our politicians want less media coverage? "Certain people in public life like that," former Republican Gov. Kean remarked, "They don't really want us to know what is going on ... . [T]hey can get away with things that way."
WNET promises a nightly "news magazine" show and a staff of 15-20 (not all devoted to news) to cover state affairs. Yet, it is shutting down the Trenton studios and making no promises to cover State House activities on a regular basis.
Former Gov. Kean (whose staffers wanted him to fire NJN newshound Michael Aron for being "too liberal") observed, "You couldn't get away with anything with NJN."
Perhaps that is exactly what Mr. Christie is thinking.

Bordentown City
Fiscal mess is state's fault
I am not a union member, but then again, I am no greedy mine owner, as columnist Tom Moran made the union protesters out to be ("Analysis: Real leadership sang louder than unions' tired refrains," June 17).
Moran castigates the crowd for protesting against the government's hacking away at collective bargaining. I agree that there should be a higher contribution to the health benefits. I pay more than 10 percent of my salary for such benefits.
The problem I have is with the way the government handled the pension fund. For years, the government did not do its duty to put money into the fund. Instead, the money was funneled into the general fund to cover holes in other areas of the budget. Investing money on Wall Street came back to bite them in the rear, and now they want the workers to pay for their dreams of high returns.
The recession should have proved to any average thinker that the odds on Wall Street are in the favor of the traders, not the investors. Instead of "letting it ride," the government should have been investing in New Jersey. Infrastructure, education and paying the bills should have been their mantra. Now they want the workers to bite the bullet after years of weak negotiating and kicking the problem down the road in order to get votes.
You can't give away the farm and turn around and demand the livestock.

Our fans' support is strong as steel
On behalf of my coaching staff and our players, I extend thanks and gratitude to all our fans, a.k.a "The Steel Core Nation." Their unwavering support, even through our inexperienced and rough start, was thoroughly noticed and greatly appreciated.
The mark of a true fan is one who will "ride the wave" with you, through the ups and downs and highs and lows. Though we were an expansion team, I would not allow the team to succumb to a mind state of being an expansion team and just be happy to be competitive -- we wanted to win, dominate and represent the City of Trenton to the fullest.
We accomplished our goal of making it to the play-offs this season, but we truly felt we were capable of winning a championship ("Steel enjoyed a banner season," June 20). Though we fell short of that goal, we have firmly laid the groundwork for a successful 2012 season. In order to do that, we will need every "member" of our "Steel Core Nation" to now consider themselves our official ninth man, and just like the players, I expect them, our fans, to come back stronger than ever next season.
I thank all for their support and kind words, and for welcoming the coaching staff, our players and me into the Trenton community with open arms!

Assemblyman Malone made a difference
The New Jersey Legislature is losing one of its most dedicated public servants when its current session concludes in January 2012.
Assemblyman Joe Malone, R-Bordentown, has decided there are other challenges he wants to pursue ("Malone will not seek another Assembly term," June 15). A man like Mr. Malone, with whom I've been friends for 20 years, doesn't just retire; he looks for another area where he can make a difference.
Assemblyman Malone has earned a reputation as a tireless advocate for his constituents who uses a common-sense approach about how government should function and how it serves taxpayers.
Joe Malone's affable personality and sense of humor will surely be missed in the State House. He never sacrificed his principles and never forgot that his constituents were his No. 1 priority.
In January, the Legislature's loss will be the Malone family's gain.
