Craggy Range
Craggy Range began with the desire to create a legacy. When Terry Peabody visited New Zealand in 1997 he was introduced to MW, Steve Smith. Terry sensed an exciting possibility in New Zealand, the exceptional climate and spirit of the people aligned with his own philosophy and desire to cut a new path. He wanted to create wines that would become internationally regarded as New World classics. The two men made an important decision from the beginning - to select and source the best land in the country, and to plant the vines perfectly suited to that soil and climate.

st: Fixed effects using binary numbers + F test for Fixed effects
Thu, 1 Nov 2007 22:44:21 -0400 (EDT)
Hi everyone
I have quite a few questions about the fixed effects that might sound very
beginner level things but i'm getting really stuck with them
We have a certain model
lcrmrteit = '0 + '1 lprbarrit + '2 lprbconvit +d04 + d05 + uit.
The first question is to develop a model with fixed effects using binary
that can be estimated by MCO and estimate this model using Stata
The second question is to use an F test to validate the usage of fixed
effects (restricted F test)
Third question is to estimate the model using the fixed effects and use an
F statistic to validate the presence or absence of fixed effects ( using
integrated commands ?? )
And they finally ask us what the difference is between the 3 F statistics
obtained in these 3 questions , which for me kind of all seem to be the
Thanks in advance for your help.

Lions vs. Browns: Live Game Grades and Analysis for ClevelandOctober 13, 2013
In-game: The Cleveland Browns welcome the Detroit Lions to FirstEnergy Stadium.
Both clubs sit with 3-2 records and the Browns are going for their fourth consecutive victory.
Detroit leads the series 17-5, including playoff meetings. Catch the action at 1 p.m. ET on your local Fox affiliate.
Lions: 31
Browns: 17
Final Game Analysis for the Cleveland Browns
Pass Offense: Typical slow second half start for the Browns and they had a total of six offensive yards in the third quarter. Rough day for tight end Jordan Cameron as he was called on two penalties and five non-impact catches.
Absolutely horrendous underhand throw away by Brandon Weeden in the fourth quarter that was intercepted and allowed Detroit to score a touchdown that put the matchup out of reach. The offense as a whole went to sleep coming out of the locker room for the second half and had no answer for anything on Detroit's defense.
Receiver Josh Gordon was in full beast mode the entire afternoon. An elite talent that contributed seven receptions for 126 yards.
Run Offense: For some inexplicable reason there was next to running attack in the second half following a 115 combined rushing yards during the first two quarters.
Pass Defense: Detroit's rookie tight end Joseph Fauria was a definite force as he scored three touchdowns and exploited the size mismatch against Cleveland's smaller defensive backs.
Quarterback Matt Stafford was able to march at will as the Browns' defense got worn down from being on the field so often. Calvin Johnson was on for much of the half, but primarily as a decoy that the secondary obviously had to respect.
Safety Tashaun Gipson had an interception in the endzone and brought it out for a nice return that resulted in zero points. Quietly, Buster Skrine was the MVP of the secondary today. He was buzzing everywhere breaking up passes and wrapping up receivers.
Run Defense: Reggie Bush came out of the gate hot in the third quarter as he busted loose for over 30-yards after only rushing for 18-yards in the opening half.
Barkevious Mingo showed development in his run protection from the Buffalo game as he improved on containment and downed Bush for a loss in the backfield. Tons of credit to T.J. Ward for stuffing the run all day long, applying tremendous pressure.
Bottom line is that the Lions rushed for 92 yards in the second half and that really opened up the passing attack.
Special Teams: Nothing notable on the kick or punt returns for Cleveland. An overall solid job by the Browns' cover units except for Johnson Bademosi getting an unsportsmanlike penalty on a fourth quarter punt that put Detroit on the 41.
Coaching: Norv Turner went back to the end-around in the third quarter, this time handing it to Josh Gordon. The call was ineffective this time as Gordon had to battle just to get back to scrimmage. Disappointing that the Browns got away from the running game after the success they had going to it in the first half.
First-Half Analysis
Pass Offense: Brandon Weeden started slow, but gradually opened things up on the medium to long throws. A part of that was the running game being effective and Weeden taking early shots downfield. A good drive in the middle of the second quarter was stopped by a DeAndre Levy interception caused in large part the consistent pressure applied by Ndamukong Suh.
The Josh Gordon and Weeden combination clicked all half and Gordon was forced to make a couple of tough catches to keep drives alive. Gordon is playing at an elite level, hauling in four catches for 79-yards in the first half. Jordan Cameron and Davone Bess only have one reception each, so there are definitely some untapped weapons that should be focused on coming out of the half.
Run Offense: Willis McGahee may not be as explosive as he once was, but that veteran mind of his found the holes and made the right cuts when the offensive line was able to create lanes. Cleveland nicely mixed in Chris Ogbonnaya for some carries with McGahee and, as the half wore on, you saw Detroit respect the play action.
The biggest run of the half came from the club utilizing Travis Benjamin's playmaking ability in an end-around handoff for 45 yards in the first frame. This half saw the Browns total an amazing combined 115 yards rushing from six different players.
Pass Defense: The Browns forced Matt Stafford into a dink-and-dunk type of passing game and gave up nothing longer than eight yards except for a Kris Durham catch for a gain of 24. Calvin "Megatron" Johnson was a non-factor.
It was a tough first quarter for Joe Haden as he was called for back-to-back pass interference penalties that landed Detroit at the 1-yard line and resulted in a touchdown. From there the secondary settled down and was dominant in terms of breaking up passes.
Run Defense: Reggie Bush was invisible in the rushing and receiving department. Joique Bell had a pair of promising carries in the first, but was not given the rock after that. Cleveland only gave up a combined 26 yards and averaged 2.4 yards per carry.
Special Teams: Cleveland's return game was ineffective and in the case of one second-quarter punt return attempt by Travis Benjamin actually lost yards because of a poor decision and a penalty for running into the kicker.
The Browns' coverage units were solid throughout and didn't give up any notable returns.
Coaching: Offensive coordinator Norv Turner got creative once again as he kept Detroit guessing. They used Travis Benjamin in an end-around that turned into a 45-yard gain and ran a play out of the Wildcat formation with Chris Ogbonnaya for a couple.

Cisco Results Loom Large Over Stock Market
Stocks were higher for most of the day, and the Nasdaq held on, but blue chips ended lower as the market headed toward computer networking giant Cisco Systems' (CSCO ) earnings announcement, due out after the bell.
All eyes were glued to the pending announcement from Cisco, which was not expected to be positive. The company is expected to post a profit of 19 cents per share, or roughly $1.4 billion, up from $935 million, or 13 cents a year ago, according to First Call/Thomson Financial.
"Cisco has become a very telltale sign of where tech is headed," said Larry Lawler, head of stock trading at Dreyfus Corp., noting the company's health leads the market's direction much the way IBM did years ago.
"Good numbers will help the market a lot. Anything neutral to on the light side could have negative effect." Either way, Cisco's earnings and outlook will have an impact on stocks, given many second and third tier technology companies depend on it for revenues, Lawler said.
Just waiting for the Cisco results pulled the Nasdaq out of its slump of the last two sessions. Tech stocks have suffered as negative reports of semiconductor makers brought the group down some 10% since Friday. Chipmakers were on a comeback today. The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index finished up under 1% after a bout of profit-taking trimmed gains in the group.
Despite a 100-basis point interest rate cut so far this year and hopes for continued aggressive rate cutting by the Federal Reserve, investors continue to feel nervous about the economy. In a light week of economic data, corporate earnings reports are the market's focus.
U.S. regulators approved JDS Uniphase Corp.'s (JDSU ) acquisition of SDL Inc (SDLI ) after the firm agreed to sell a key laser plant to Nortel Networks Corp. (NT ).
Media and entertainment giant Walt Disney Co. (DIS ) reported fiscal first-quarter earnings of $0.16 a share, outpacing analysts' average expectation of $0.15 per share. The Dow component added strength to the blue chip index for most of the day, as did technology blue chips.
Software behemoth Microsoft (MSFT ), No. 1 chipmaker Intel (INTC ) and information technology firm Hewlett-Packard (HWP ) were the biggest gainers on the Dow.
Weakness in financial stocks hindered the Dow. The Dow Jones Industrial Average broke the 11,000-mark during the session, but the index finished off 8.43 points, at 10,957.42.
The tech-heavy Nasdaq composite index finshed up 21.28 points, or 0.8%, to 2,664.49, while the S&P 500, a broader stocks gauge, lost 2.05 points, or 0.1%, to 1,363.55.
Treasury Market
U.S. Treasuries ended lower ahead of the first leg of quarterly debt refunding, which will see the auction of $11 billion of reopened five-year notes. Amid a week of light economic data, the markets are expecting a report on productivity Wednesday.
Stocks in the News
Applied Micro (AMCC ), maker of semiconductors, maintains guidance for the fourth quarter and the first quarter of fiscal year 2001, but says existing orders have seen some push-outs, cancellations in past week. Given concerns that abound in its end markets, the company is on alert.
Supply chain software maker JD Edwards (JDEC ) said it sees a first quarter loss between $0.01 and $0.02 from normalized operations on $208 million to $218 million in revenues. The company blamed its poor execution in sales and services areas.
Financial services firm Bank of America (BAC ) was reportedly downgraded by UBS Warburg to hold from buy.
World Markets
European markets ended the day higher. London's FTSE 100 ended up 24.20 points, or 0.39%, to 6,293.40, as investors await an interest-rate decision from the Bank of England this week. In Germany, the DAX Index finished up 64.96 points, or 0.98%, to 6,693.03, even though the German unemployment rate rose to 9.3% in December from 9.2% in November. German investors were encouraged that EuroZone retail sales rose 0.2% in November. In Paris, the CAC 40 ended up 28.86 points, or 0.50%, at 5,852.35.
Asian markets finished mixed. Japan's Nikkei index finished down 115.67, or 0.86%, at 13,269.85 while Hong Kong's Hang Seng stock finished up 82.40 points, or 1.50%, at 15,830.84.
Today's Headlines

Gourmet Getaway in Historic Loudoun County
Goodstone Inn & Estate • Middleburg, VA
Escape Kit
- A Two-Night Weekday ($398) or Weekend ($495) Stay for Two
- Daily Gourmet Breakfast for Each Guest
- A Half-Bottle of Wine and Afternoon Tea
- Complimentary Tasting at a Local Winery
- $50 Credit to Apply Toward Spa Treatments or Dinner
- Access to Property Activities
If you've been on the fox hunt for a wine country getaway, gallop away with this week's Escape. We're sending you to explore Virginia's Goodstone Inn & Estate, where you'll experience charm and tranquility—without ponying up much dough.
You're in for quite the ride in the heart of Middleburg, the seat of Virginia hunt and wine country. The inn, once an expansive dairy farm, is now home to a private estate that exudes the chivalry and privilege of a bygone era (many of the original structures have been retained and restored), while modern adaptations (former stables have been converted to luxurious suites) and first-class service will have you feeling more fulfilled than feudal.
Your romantic, two-night stay in the historic inn comes complete with gourmet breakfast each morning, a half bottle of wine, afternoon tea, a complimentary wine tasting at a local winery, $50 to use at the property's luxurious spa or restaurant, and access to a variety of activities on their 265-acre property—all for $398 during the week, or $495 on the weekend.
You and your partner can take the reins through this scenic stretch of Middleburg: Enjoy hiking trails, scenic rolling green hills, mountain bikes delivered to your cottage doorstep, a heated pool and hot tub, lazy hammocks perfect for reading a good book, and breathtaking Blue Ridge Mountain views, all without leaving Goodstone's property.
Or, smitten by the serene beauty of the surrounding equestrian estates, you can trot off the grounds to experience downtown Middleburg's antique shops, local wineries, nearby horseback riding, canoeing, hot air balloon rides, and more.
With your $50 credit, saddle up for a rejuvenating massage at the inn's Spa at Goodstone, housed in a renovated farmstead barn, or enjoy an upscale dinner courtesy of Chef William Walden at the restaurant named a Visit Loudoun Destination Restaurant.
It's no wonder Condé Nast called this country retreat the Most Excellent Inn for 2011: Considering the luxuries of such an Escape, this is one of those rare times when you truly can look a gift horse in the mouth.
"Ideally, and if I'm incredibly lucky, I'm in Kennebunkport or Middleburg. When we're in Middleburg, we stay at the Goodstone Inn. "-- Jenna Bush, in Town and Country Magazine

At Shorewest, support helps make success
Sarah Irvine calls herself "a walking billboard" for Shorewest Realtors.
It's the one place Irvine has worked since graduating from college 15 years ago, and she's not looking around to find something else.
"It's an excellent place to be," said Irvine, who started out in real estate sales but now works in IT support and provides technology training. "I think it's the best real estate company, so of course I'd want to be here. But the real reason is because we're treated like family, and it's from the top down. You want to come to work. I love coming to work."
Shorewest, based in Brookfield, ranked second among Wisconsin's large companies in the Journal Sentinel's 2012 Top Workplaces survey.
Started in 1946 by John A. Horning as Wauwatosa Realty, Shorewest - which changed its name in 1997 to reflect its broader market - today is run by two of Horning's grandsons, John P. Horning and Joe Horning.
"We have this philosophy that everyone here is on the team, so we're all in this together," said Joe Horning.
That philosophy has served the company well over 66 years, including the past several as the residential real estate market has struggled.
"We're very much a family company," said John P. Horning.
It acts like a family in the way it provides support, works together for common causes and celebrates success, employees say.
"One of the things I just really loved starting out brand new in the industry was the training and the support they offer for agents," said Tina Balaka, who has worked at Shorewest for 10 years and now is assistant sales director. "But once you get past the point of learning about how to be an agent and what it takes, there is so much continued support and encouragement along the way."
She said, for example, that Shorewest has a marketing department that will help agents customize their marketing strategy.
"They will help you as much as possible and they have such a talented team of designers to help you through the process," she said.
The technology available to agents is second to none, Balaka said. For instance, the company has an iPhone app that helps home shoppers find properties Shorewest is selling.
"It's far superior to what other companies are going to be able to offer," Balaka said of Shorewest's technology. "They want to always be cutting edge."
Shorewest holds a summer festival for employees at its building in Brookfield and also has a holiday party. It regularly recognizes excellence among employees who are nominated by their peers.
But perhaps its most popular event is C4K, or "Christmas Is for Kids." Each year Shorewest employees put on a party in early December for about 400 needy children from the area. Children meet Santa and receive a new toy or age-appropriate gift; a hand-knit hat with matching scarf and mittens; a book of their choice; lunch; and an opportunity to make and wrap a gift for someone they love. Employees raise money for C4K throughout the year with bake sales, auctions and other events and donations.
"We all get very involved," Irvine said.
Shorewest conducts an anonymous annual survey in which employees are asked what they think of management and to make suggestions about the company.
"It's basically your opportunity to say the things you feel about working for the company," Irvine said. "I love the fact that the Hornings allow us to do that. They allow us to say what we want to say anonymously, and they actually take what we say and they care about it. And sometimes they change and make decisions based on what we say. I think that takes a lot of courage on their part."
- Name: Shorewest Realtors
- Rank: No. 2 among large employers
- What it does: Residential real estate
- Where it's located: Based in Brookfield; 25 sales offices covering a 12-county area

Eighteenth-century theatre
The Licensing Act of 1737 tightened censorship of drama, placing it under the control of the Lord Chamberlain. Only patent theatres were able to perform drama – known as legitimate theatre. Non-patent theatres performed melodrama, pantomime, ballet, opera and music hall (burlesque). As these involved music or musical interludes they could not be classed as plays and were regarded as illegitimate theatre and were not subject to the Licensing Act.
Later, a series of royal patents were granted to cities outside London. These became known as "Theatres Royal". Many still operate and were built in a restrained neo-classical style.
Also in the eighteenth century, companies of players began to travel on regular circuits between market towns. They set up their own theatres, called playhouses, which were similar in shape and size. This enabled stock scenery to be easily erected and reused, which made touring easier. Hundreds were built, of modest size and exterior. Their interiors were simple, consisting of a rectangular flat-floored room with a stage that projected into the audience. People sat on benched seating on the floor in front of the stage, or on balconies against the three remaining walls supported by columns or wooden posts. Any scenery was placed at the rear of the stage. The rich could pay a little more in order to sit on the stage, not just for better viewing, but also to be seen by the rest of the audience and the cast. These theatres were open for limited periods, and when not needed for performances could be used for other functions such as assembly rooms or ballrooms.
Theatres had mainly wooden interiors which were always at risk of fire. In 1794 the Drury Lane Theatre, London introduced the first iron safety curtain, which would eventually become a statutory requirement in all large theatres. It also had a large water tank on its roof – a feature that was adopted by other theatres – to extinguish fire in the stage area. The theatre also began to make its scenery more fire-resistant.
By the end of the century the façades of many city theatres were built in the more imposing classical style. Some even had porticoes, similar to those seen on the front of large city homes or country seats. They were added mainly for show, but a few enabled the rich to descend from their carriages and enter the theatre without being exposed to any inclement weather.

- The University of Michigan's consumer sentiment index for the South Census region has moved back in line with the overall U.S. consumer sentiment index after falling lower in July and August, likely a reflection of the oil spill.
Meanwhile, tourism activity in the District has shown improvement, and contacts in the industry are optimistic about the outlook.
- According to the Federal Aviation Administration, of the 30 busiest airports in the United States, Atlanta ranks number one, and the airports in Orlando, Miami, and Fort Lauderdale are also on the list.

- District-assembled vehicle sales in September jumped 27 percent from last year, led by rising volumes from Hyundai-Kia, Mercedes, and Nissan.
- Hyundai-Kia sales jumped 90 percent on a year-over-year basis. One-fourth of the company's gains are from sales of the new Kia Sorento crossover.
The pace of District vehicle registrations slowed in August.
- Year over year, District new vehicle registrations in August registered a 6 percent increase, a much weaker performance than in previous months.
- Nationally, new vehicle registrations were down 1 percent on a year-over-year basis.

Ripoff Report
LOT, Inc.1133 Stoneybrook Loop Post Falls, Idaho USA
LOT, Inc. Idaho resident Mark Hampe cybersquats; attempt to cash in on trade-name leafBuilder created by John C. Sudds Post Falls Idaho
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
Mark Hampe, a Post Falls, Idaho resident cybersquats the trade-name leafBuilder which was created and popularized by John C. Sudds; Mr. Sudds is the founder of LeafsOfTalent.com. Apparently Mr. Hampe informed Mr. Sudds that the reason he has chosen to cybersquat (or pilfer) the common-law trademark leafBuilder is so that he can align the name with a Panama City, Panama based MLM company named Leaf International. It seems Leaf International was established in 2013.
Since Leaf International allows prospective members to join its network as marketers in order to gain significant payouts for website reviews Mr. [continued below]....
This complaint helps to expose shady individuals like Mark Hampe and the businesses that they are linked to. It is Mr. Sudds' wish that Leaf International doesn't allow Mr. Hampe to put a cybersquatting face on its newly formed venture. If you are a law office and would like to pursue this case on a pro bono basis then please contact Mr. Sudds at (((REDACTED))) Write Mark at 1133 Stoneybrook Loop, Post Falls, Idaho 83854 and demand that he refrain from this kind of underhanded unethical entrepreneurial ploy as a means to make money.

Mark Hampe backs away from using the tradename leafBuilder for a Leaf International account
SUBMITTED: Friday, May 10, 2013POSTED: Friday, May 10, 2013
After corresponding with Mark Hampe on several occasions via email it seems the purported cybersquatter has backed down from using John Sudds' tradename "leafBuilder" to promote websites under a Leaf International, Inc. account. Leaf International, Inc. is apparently a company headquartered out of Panama City, Panama.
Mark has stated the following to John in an email, "to protect the business interest of Leaf International, I will immediately cease the use of the domain as a redirect to that business site until further notice by Leaf International legal."
Mark's decision to back away from using John's tradename as a domain name with Leaf International in and of itself an admission of guilt in that he knows he doesn't has a material right to the name. Mark is engaging in cybersquatting and should transfer the rights of the domain name to Mr. Sudds without further incident. Mark further stated that he purchased the name "free and clear" from Godaddy.com; however, now is the time for Mark to transfer the name because it's clear that he has engaged in some shady behavior.
Why I use the term shady is because Mark (for some irrational reasoning) is still trying to hold on to the domain name leafBuilder.com. I guess Mark's pride has him clinching on to leafbuilder.com until he's literally forced by the proper authorities to give the domain name. Again, Mark is strongly encouraged to do the right thing and transfer the domain name to John without further incident. Until Mark submit to what's right John (the founder behind leafBuilder "the brand") will be watching Mark like a hawk.

Join the Berkshire Botanical Garden staff for a day-long adventure to the southeast coast of Rhode Island to explore an extraordinary garden, nurseries and more. Sakonnet Garden, in Little Compton, RI, will be the featured visit of the day. This "exceptional American garden" (as quoted by Marco Polo Stufano, former Director of Wave Hill, and John Trexler, former Director of Tower Hill Botanic Garden) is a garden full of inspiration. Sakonnet is a secret garden embedded within a native coastal fields landscape. At the diminutive scale of a cottage garden, it is conceived of as an intimate place to explore, with multiple paths leading one onward to unexpected experiences.
Owners John Gywnne and Mikal Folcarelli will lead a tour of their property. First, consider a restored meadow managed for endangered bobolinks. Learn about the ecological theory behind the meadow's management and hopefully spot one of these wonderful upland meadow birds. Then, explore the small walled garden, designed as a series of small garden rooms. Following the tour, Ed Bowen from Opus Nursery of Little Compton, RI, will be on hand to sell some of his great Zone 5 plants.
Enjoy a picnic lunch on the lawn—or wait—for the next stop! As we leave the coast, we will stop at the head of the Sakonnet River for a take-out order of fish 'n' chips (optional, of course). Enjoy this Rhode Island tradition at well known Evelyn's Clam Shack (as seen on the Food Channel: Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, hosted by Guy Fieri). The coastal scenery, including boats in the harbor, will be a special treat for us upland creatures. On the return trip we will detour into western Connecticut for a tour of the fabled greenhouses of Logee's. In business since 1892, this series of five connected greenhouses holds an extensive collection of tropical, semi-tropical and tender perennial plants, as well as orchids, begonias, scented geraniums, citrus and so much more. The staff of Logee's will give an introduction to the group, and participants can roam the greenhouses and purchase special plants to take home. Enjoy the hosting skills of the BBG staff, including a mid-morning snack and afternoon wine and cheese.
Participants can choose to carpool or drive separately. Those joining the carpool should meet in the parking lot at Berkshire Botanical Garden for an 8:30 am departure. Carpool will return at approximately 3:30 pm.
Join well known gardener and author Page Dickey for a private study tour of her garden at the height of the shrub rose bloom. Page will share her insights into gardening and will discuss the use of fragrant shrubs, with a focus on her favorite shrub roses. Learn about how she selects, designs and cultivates these fragrant beauties. This tour will inspire even the most casual gardeners to get down on their knees and plant shrubs. Following the tour, Page invites participants to picnic on the lawn. On the return trip we will stop at one of Page's favorite local nurseries, Claire's Garden Center, in Patterson, NY.
Page Dickey is a gardener and garden writer living and gardening at Duck Hill in North Salem, NY.

We've all seen red roses, blue irises and yellow daffodils. But when we really look closely at a flower, whole new worlds of beauty and intricacy emerge. Join author Teri Dunn Chace for this illustrated talk based on her recent book, Seeing Flowers: Discover the Hidden Life of Flowers. Chace's lyrical and illuminating essays complement the extraordinarily detailed floral images by photographer Robert Llewellyn. Chace will offer insights on each flower by exploring distinguishing characteristics and share fascinating tidbits, tales and lore as we view images revealing amazing details of stamens and pistils, shadings on a petal or the secret recesses of nectar tubes.

Anybody doing any camping? Getting a late start here getting our plans together but hoping we will still get to go despite the high price of gas.
Looking at annual trips to Smokemont and Elkmont in the Smokies (prettiest camp grounds you ever saw), Long branch on the Caney Fork, a trip up to Tellico maybe Indian Boundary(those mountains are just good for what ails ya), The Obey river below Dale Hollow is a definite and I can't leave out the Clinch river below Norris Lake. All great trout fisheries.
That should wrap up the spring, for the summer we'll leave the big camper on Chickamauga lake and fish for those 100 lb cat fish. And drink lots of beer and pick till our fingers bleed.
Well I feel better now that I have a plan:w00t:
sounds like a great plan and an awesome time..... i hope its stringed instruments. lol
You said it ronn, have a great time Mr. Buckshot.
buckshot enjoy, you've given me some ideas for future camping trips.:coffee:
No camping as of yet buckshot. My family and a friends family are going to stay in the smokey mts next week though. We rented us a cabin and got plans of sitting around and doing not much of anything. Its a far cry from camping though.. The cabin is more like a house. Matter fact its alot nicer than my house. Ill add a link and yall can check it out.
Chateau Bearden - Overnight Cabin Rental in Tennessee
:lol: Now that's funny. Yea we can really get the dogs howling sometimes.
I would be interested in hearing about some of the out of the way camping sites you guys might know about. I am trying to collect info for the time the wife and I say enough and hit the road. We can go with or with out hook ups. Some of our favorite spots are primitive with no organized camp just pull in and set up and usually free. I have a small 12' camper for the back in the mountains camping.
That's one of the things I miss about the south. Having been raised in Pulaski TN seems like you couldn't swing a dead chicken without hitting someone that could play music on something.
i try to combine my hunting trips with camping.you save money camping at a state park as opposed to a motel

Josh Schneider Swims 19.32 in the of the 50-yard Freestyle Prelims
March 26, 2009
College Station, Texas - University of Cincinnati swimmer Josh Schneider swam 19.32 in the morning preliminaries of the 50-yard freestyle to grab one of eight spots in the Thursday night consolation final at the NCAA Men's Swimming and Diving Championship at the Student Rec Center Natatorium on the campus of Texas A&M University.
The finals are set to begin at 8 p.m. EST.
The 19.32 clocking was the second-best effort of the junior's career. The meet has been faster than in years past. Schneider qualified 16th at last year's NCAA meet with a time of 19.61.
"Josh is a tremendous competitor," head coach Monty Hopkins said. "Despite being a little disappointed at not making the Championship Final, by the time we left the pool parking lot he was talking about goals for the evening Consolation Finals.
"He didn't look as sharp on the first 25 as he did at the Big East Championship, but a great turn and a strong second 25 got him into consols giving him a second chance to achieve some of the goals he has for this particular race."

Not sure who was more excited Harry or me & I graciously let him unwrap the box!
I received a very pretty bee mug which has been filled with tea several times over now, gardening gloves with bees on again very useful & some Burt's Bees toiletries which are truly lovely I shall keep the tin for buttons. Also in the parcel - a set of scissor with little bees on them, they really are very cute. The colour nearly matches my sewing box & it's where they live now -
Onto other news I have yet again come down with Pneumonia I tend to get it two or three times a year so am back on antibiotics & a visit back to the doctors next week. I declined a sick note (to Mikes horror) as I'm off next week & have an important investigation meeting to take on Friday. We've caught it early this time & I know the drill, rest, fluids & antibiotics. Aesop will be well used next week. I'm working from home today, might go in tomorrow, definitely be in on Friday, work from home Saturday & then a week off.
Broad beans have been harvested, I sat on a bench in the garden with the compost bin & a bowl for a couple of hours Monday evening, it was a pleasant task even if it took a little longer than expected -
Some for dinner & five bags for the freezer
We had a few potatoes from the garden too, a little rummage in one of the pots & we found a few 'International Kidney' - Jersey Royals if grown in the correct location, they were an absolute delight to eat along with the beans.
Right that's me, hope you are all well x

Christina Aguilera You're Such A Fun Mom! We Love That You Took Max To Disneyland!
The singer builds memories with her 3-year-old birthday boy during a visit to the happiest place on earth.
Christina Aguilera and her boyfriend Matt Rutler took her adorable son Max to Disneyland yesterday (Jan. 11) to celebrate his 3rd birthday with all his favorite characters — Mickey, Minnie and Donald Duck! Can you think of anything better to do with the birthday boy? Sounds pretty perfect to us!
Christina sings Max to sleep — but she doesn't bring the pipes out for lullabies!
Christina, 30, who has had a crazy few months dealing with the end of her five year marriage to Max's dad Jordan Bratman in the midst of promoting her first feature film Burlesque, must really enjoy this special time with her little boy! "He brings out all these elements of play in me," Christina told HollyBaby.com about Max. "I'll sit on the floor and play for hours. We run and laugh and just have fun. Grown-ups forget how to do that in their lives."
Heidi and Seal take their kids to a Lakers game!
If there's any place that can bring out the kid in parents, it's Disneyland! With the countless number of awesome attractions, Christina and her birthday boy were sure to have a blast! And I have a feeling they didn't have to wait in super-long lines to go on any of the rides. That's got to be a perk of being famous, right?

The holidays are just around the corner and I bet a lot of people will be stuck on their mobile devices sharing everything they do to their friends or the web in general. But with the constant sharing, some people are plagued with the problem of going over their data limit. So what are people to do? Stop using the internet on their mobile devices? I don't think so!
There are lots of apps for Android and iOS that help users keep track of their data usage. If you missed our previous data tracking and curbing overages, click here. If you're interested in the mobile apps that can help you curb overages, read on.
iOS data tracking and management apps
This app lets users extend their data plan by up to five times which simply means you get more for what you are paying for. It gives you a breakdown of how much data is used by each of your apps and mobile data activities, so you can keep track if you'll be going over your limit or why you're going over your limit. The app also compresses download data such as images and texts so you can maximize your plan's worth.
This app conveniently informs you of how much data you are consuming and alerts you when you are about to go over your limit to avoid "bill shock." This app allows you to gauge whether you are actually using the best plan according to your needs so you can be sure that you are not paying for something that you rarely use. It also has a historical breakdown into daily, weekly and monthly consumption, as well as the ability to set daily limits so you optimize data consumption without having to worry about consuming data too fast.
This app monitors data usage over cellular and WiFi and users simply just need to input their monthly and data limit as well as reset date to get things started. It also tracks usage locations, like where you're most likely using your data plan, if it's at work doing business or during your break or running errands.
iOS recommnedation
Of the three apps mentioned, we recommend using Onavo Extend since it lets users maximize the use of their data plans aside from monitoring which apps are data hoggers.
Android data tracking and curbing apps
This app not only monitors data traffic but it also monitors SMS and call. You can set limits for call, SMS and data usage so you'll never have to worry about going over your mobile plan. You can check all the information you need in a customizable widget plus you can set limit to data use for each app. It also informs you as to which apps are data hoggers so you'll know which apps to set limits to.
This app keeps track of network traffic used by your mobile device. It shows wifi / wlan and 4g / lte / 3g / gprs traffic. You can customize the user interface and configure widgets individually. It also supports a number of languages such as Danish, Dutch, German, Norwegian, Russian, Spanish and Swedish translation aside from English.
This app monitors data traffic and comes with integrated speed test and task manager. This app monitors data traffic consumed via WiFi and cellular and summarizes it in daily, weekly, and monthly reports. This also gives you report as to which are data hungry apps so you can avoid going over your limit by limiting usage of that app.
Android recommendation
We recommend using DroidStatus since it not only monitors data consumption, but also monitors call and text consumption. So it prevents you from going over your data plan as well as your call and text plan, keeping you safely in your monthly limit.
To learn more about how you can curb your data consumption, check out 3 Ways to Cut iPhone 5 Data Usage, Avert Overages.

Has the business of transiting through Los Angeles, en route from Auckland to London, got any better in recent times? And, in particular, has pre-clearance via the Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA), introduced by the United States earlier this year, sped the process up? That's the reasonable question raised by Travel readers Graham and Diane O'Dea.
The O'Deas say they last went to Europe via LA back in 2007 when "the experience of getting through US Customs and Immigration was tiresome".
In both directions processing took so long that "the last passengers off the plane were just being processed as we reboarded for the next leg".
So have things got better since then? I put the O'Dea's query to the US Embassy in Wellington.
In response a spokeswoman for US Customs and Border Protection pointed out that the ESTA system was never intended to affect the process of transiting through the US.
"All Visa Waiver Programme travellers are required to obtain a travel authorisation via the ESTA before they travel to the United States. ESTA is an automated system used to determine the eligibility of visitors to travel to the United States under the Visa Waiver Programme. The inspection process has not changed. Visitors are still required to be inspected by Customs and Border Protection officers upon arrival."
The best advice to give any readers concerned about passing through an airport like Los Angeles, the spokeswoman added, was to check processing times at US airports which are listed online.
"This will give the traveller an idea of how long the wait times are at any particular time or day."
Air New Zealand's Auckland-London flights use Terminal 2 at LA and it is indeed an easy matter to visit the website to find that what it calls "wait times" for passengers range from as little as two minutes to as much as 117 minutes, with the average being 21 minutes.
Between 2-3pm, which is when the Auckland-LA flight is usually due, the average delay is only 16 minutes. And between 7-8pm when the London-LA flight is due it is 24 minutes.
But, Customs and Border Protection points out, that "does not represent the average delay experienced by all travellers. It represents the total flight processing time from arrival to the time the last passenger completes screening at the primary inspection area. It is the longest time that any passenger on a given flight had to wait. The average passenger on the flight would have a shorter wait and the first passenger off the plane will typically be processed in a fraction of the wait time shown below."
That, you'd have to say, doesn't sound too bad. But what does it amount to in practice?
I haven't transited through LA myself this year. But my colleague Chris Barton did so quite recently.
On the outward leg, he said, on arrival at LA he was directed to a queue to the transit lounge.
"I was among the first off and I only had to wait 15-20 minutes to be processed but I noticed that the people who were later getting off had to wait a lot longer."
On the journey home, however, his flight from London was delayed by two hours and this created all sorts of problems.
"When we arrived in LA we were told there were no transit area staff so we were bused to another terminal and given pink transit cards. The immigration area was packed with very long queues that were going to take ages to get through.
"For a while it looked hopeless, we'd never get through in time, but fortunately someone realised this and called all people with pink cards to a new queue where we were processed by two or three staff, though it was still very slow... It all seemed ridiculous, quite pointless, and there was quite a lot of anger about."
This, remember, isn't what happens when you try to enter the US itself. It's what happens when you have to transit through LA, basically so the plane can refuel and take on a fresh crew, on the way to somewhere else.
And, answering the original question, it sounds as though the experience of transiting through LA varies markedly - you might have a good run or you could be unlucky - but ESTA doesn't seem to have made any difference and things are pretty much the same as they were in 2007.

When you are cute your questions tend to get answered. Read the whole thing!
While unsure if we can stomach yet another book on the crisis, a killer thesis on the topic? Now that piqued our curiosity. We tracked down Barnett-Hart, a 24-year-old financial analyst at a large New York investment bank. She met us for coffee last week to discuss her thesis, "The Story of the CDO Market Meltdown: An Empirical Analysis." Handed in a year ago this week at the depths of the market collapse, the paper was awarded summa cum laude and won virtually every thesis honor, including the Harvard Hoopes Prize for outstanding scholarly work.
Last October, Barnett-Hart, already pulling all-nighters at the bank (we agreed to not name her employer), received a call from Lewis, who had heard about her thesis from a Harvard doctoral student. Lewis was blown away.
"It was a classic example of the innocent going to Wall Street and asking the right questions," said Mr. Lewis, who in his 20s wrote "Liar's Poker," considered a defining book on Wall Street culture. "Her thesis shows there were ways to discover things that everyone should have wanted to know. That it took a 22-year-old Harvard student to find them out is just outrageous."
