Nicely spaced sites with plenty of foliage between. The bugs were kept to a minimum. The sites were level and dry. There is a nice swimming beach and canoes for rent. It is near several bike trails and had lots of families with bikes in the park. The rock and agate museum is very much still in development but has some interesting exhibits. The Ranger station is open for limited hours. There is very little phone service for Verizon here. Biggest drawback for a motorhome is that there is no dump station in the park.
Date of Stay: June, 2016
Very large and nice campground. Many long term units are in many of the shaded sites, but the large, open area near the pool is quite nice. The WIFI is terrible - anywhere in the park. The playground is large and fenced which is great. There are two pools, both nicely warm, a deeper one for adults and a 2-3' one for kids which was great. The splash pad was still being built. The roads to the upper area were steep and rutted but the lower roads were just fine for even the largest RV.
Date of Stay: November, 2015
We stayed in the Beach side campground which was just behind the dunes from a great beach. Each site has a concrete pad, a fire ring, and concrete shade shelter over a picnic table. We could hear the ocean waves and got a nice breeze. This would not be a good place to camp on a stormy day due to the strong winds. Although the park seems very remote it is a 15 minute drive to many attractions, restaurants, and grocery stores. A huge rainfall had left quite a pond around the restroom and shower area so we never used the facilities, although they look nice and new. We were able to get a good Verizon signal.
Date of Stay: November, 2015
Half of this park is decent concrete pads for large vehicles. The other half is a dark, messy area for pop-up campers and tents. The whole area is surruounded by a tall fence and feels secure. It is located very conventiently to major roads in NOLA, but does not have road noise. It took about 30 minutes by car to get to the French Quarter. We were given a lot of useful information as we checked in and told about a convenient shuttle to downtown which we did not use. So - there was good service and security, but the park had many very messy areas as well.

This campground is good or bad depending on the site that you choose. Some sites are around a large grassy area that looks out to the lake. These are great. Others are on the perimeter of the peninsula and are right on the lake. These have good views but are heavily wooded and the road to them is two dirt ruts. The worst sites are on the interior of the peninsula. The sites are very narrow with heavy woods on both sides. These are the pull through sites but I would never take a large class A in here. Several large garbage bins and two porta potties sit in the cleared area opening into all these pull through sites which are too narrow to even set up chairs alongside the RV and so full of bugs you wouldn't want to anyway. Good TV service for four stations, some telephone service, near Tower-Soudan State Park, and next to a boat ramp with access to the lake. Just reserve early and choose a good site.
Date of Stay: October, 2012
This is a huge campground with very nice large, grassy and shaded sites. Each back-in site has a 55' cement pad, but not all of the pads are very level. The sites are arranged in two figure eights (one within the other) so there is an outside ring and an inside ring. The campground swimming pool and playground are in the center of the eights along with the bathhouses. There is a small grocery store and lots of trails for walking and bike riding. The facilities and events at the Horse Park are open to folks staying in the campground at a reduced cost. The only downside of the campground is the bright lights and extra noise at some of the sites on the inside ring close to the playground and pool. Additional sites are available on the grass - some with electricity. These are the best sites for very large rigs as the cement pads would be very tight. I had good Verizon phone service. Wi-Fi is available for a fee. I would return here, it is a very pleasant place.
Date of Stay: September, 2012
There are two KOAs right next to each other - Colonial and Williamsburg - It looks like they bought out a neighboring campground. You sign in at the Colonial KOA. This is convenient to the freeway and Williamsburg, but very quiet and has lots of trees. There are some Premium sites with paved pads but the rest of the pads are gravel and many are uneven. The campground was pretty empty when we arrived in mid fall but we were given a very small, treeless site. We asked to be moved and were given the choice of several much nicer sites. The Wi-Fi is very limited and there is almost no Verizon cell reception. The pool, shower house and laundry is very clean and nice. Lots of washers and dryers all functional. The office staff were very helpful and pleasant. I would camp here again.
Date of Stay: August, 2011
Very nice campground with lots of green grass, nice level pads, clean buildings and pool. The freeways converge in this area so be careful to read instructions on how to get to the campground, but the noise level is minimal once you get there. The pull-through sites are much nicer than the back-in spots around the edges - much bigger grassy area between units. I would certainly stay here again.
Date of Stay: August, 2011
Johnson Lake is a large hydro-irrigation lake surrounded by lake homes and this beautiful State Recreation Area. The SRA has a swimming beach and boat launch as well as two campgrounds. We stayed at the Main campground. Most of the sites have 30 amp electric. There is a dump station nearby. Lots of tall trees, green grass and open space. The sites are all back in, but are quite large with big space between sites. Most have a great view of the lake. We were there midweek and did not need a reservation but were told that it fills up on the weekend. This is a beautiful spot just 7 miles off I-80. Very quiet and well maintained.
Date of Stay: July, 2011
This campground is very convenient to Rocky Mountain National Park. It is located along a rushing stream and has a small fishing pond in the middle of the campground area. There is a pool and an activity building. A bridge over the stream takes you to a shopping area with groceries, restaurant and liquor store - very nice. However, the campground sites have been neglected - weeds, no trees, dirt roads and pads, missing sewer connections, broken picnic tables. All sites are back-in and fairly wide so you can park your car next to your camper. However, folks are allowed to park more than one car and more than one trailer in a site which can put a neighbor's truck right up against your camper. The mobile phone service is spotty and Wi-Fi is poor. I was not impressed and would not camp here again.
Date of Stay: July, 2011
Very friendly and helpful staff. Level sites with gravel roads. Very little grass or trees, but this is Wyoming. We could see the freeway but not really hear it. The pool, playground, and outdoor areas are very nice. I would definitely stay here again.
Date of Stay: May, 2011
This campground is close to Mammoth Cave. It has few other redeeming qualities. It is not up to KOA standards. It is set in a hilly, terraced area. The "Pull through" sites are either on very uneven ground with a steep incline to navigate on the far end, or shallow pullouts along the busy campground road that put your door nearly on the road. The back-in sites are very short even for our 28' Class C, and sloped in two directions. Although there are many nice shade trees, the noise from the freeway is so loud and constant it is not pleasant to sit outside. The picnic tables were almost unusable due to heavy warping and splinters. The sites were messy and had potholes. The advertised 50 amp sites were still being "developed." They may offer space for larger rigs. However, at the present a large motorhome or 5th wheel would have a very difficult time getting into most of the sites as well as navigating the campground roads. The staff were neither friendly, nor helpful. There are many other nearby campgrounds. I would not camp here again.
Date of Stay: May, 2011
This campground is very convenient to visiting the Abraham Lincoln sites in downtown Springfield. The sites are either on grass or a parking lot. We parked on the grass. Some sites are nicely level while others appear to be quite hilly. The area was very quiet as there was not an event in the fairgrounds. Very little street or airplane noise. There is 24 hour security and great campground hosts. The area was easy to navigate in our short motor home, but would work for large vehicles as well. The campground is close to restaurants, shopping centers and parks, but is as quiet as a rural area. I would definitely stay here again.
Date of Stay: June, 2010
We really enjoyed our short stay at this campground. The pool and hot tubs are sparkling clean and well managed, so that both children and adults can have a good time using them. There is plenty of shade and grass, very good WiFi coverage and some great views of the foothills. Although the campground is just 2 blocks off a main street with many restaurants and services, it is very quiet. I wish we had planned to stay here longer. It is just great. We will be back.
Date of Stay: June, 2010
This is a beautiful campground with many amenities. It is next to a small water park which is great for the kids on weekends. There is lots of shade, but the trees are nicely trimmed. The noise from the highway is muted by all the trees and bushes, but it can be heard. This is a typical interstate campground, built so it can be seen from the freeway. The WiFi was fast and had good coverage but was down for part of the day. I had good Verizon service, though. Overall a nice park that we have stayed in 3 times.

- Ergon urges - don't tackle with powerlines
Published: 30 Sep 2015 1:52pm
Ergon Energy is urging members of the public not to put their lives at risk when attempting to rescue wildlife which may be in close proximity to powerlines.
"Just call the experts and don't go near powerlines under any circumstances," said Customer Delivery Manager Tropical North Charlie Casa.
"While it might seem well intended at the time, attempting any sort of animal rescue or retrieval from powerlines or vegetation close to powerlines is extremely dangerous and could end in tragedy.
"Living and being injury free is so much more important than not waiting for the professionals to arrive."
Mr Casa's comments follow a recent incident where a spanner tied to a line was reportedly used to bring in a flying fox entangled in fishing lines that were draped from high voltage powerlines over the Barron River near a popular fishing spot.
He said the issue of fishing line entanglements over powerlines can also lead to power outages.
Earlier this year Ergon Energy reconfigured the position of overhead powerlines adjacent to a bridge across Redden Creek near Machans Beach – a spot popular with local fishing enthusiasts.
"We have evidence of powerlines clashing in the past - possibly caused by anglers pulling the conductors together after accidentally casting lines over them," Mr Casa said.
Ergon advises people to look up and live. Also to stay well away from powerlines and not touch anything that is in contact with powerlines.
"If you are aware of anything tangled in powerlines, let Ergon know immediately on 13 22 96 and keep yourself and others well away," Mr Casa said.

No issue with mine. Easy to shoot and accurate. I wouldn't consider it a target pistol per se. I love the .357 sig round. I've never had any pistol bruise my fingers or wrists. No bracing for impact either, It's only a 120+ or 140+ grain bullet.

I've searched and I've found articles talking about this particular gun but I haven't seen the answers I'm looking for, or else I've missed them.
I'm thinking about getting a G33 for my new carry gun but am not sure yet. I want to know how bad is the recoil on a gun like this since it's so small? I've never owned a gun that shoots that round, but currently own a .38 special, 9mm, .40S&W, .45 acp and wonder where that falls in line.
My usual carry gun for now is the G26 and I love the size and feel, just want a round with a bit more punch. I would also love to be able to target practice with the new gun fairly regularly without having to "brace for impact" on something with a large kick. My hands aren't weak, but I have to type a lot for my job and can't have a bruised wrist or fingers if I go out and shoot a couple hundred rounds one day.
Any first hand knowledge would be great, or a suggestion for another gun will also be helpful. Thanks for any input.

since you already have .40, i'd go with the g27
My .02 = I would also go with the G27.
The recoil seems the same as .40 to me (with a louder BANG). The .357 Sig has it's fans. I think using 9mm +P or +P+ generates the same velocity & ballistics.
I don't see alot of .357sig ammo around, so that's why I say G27.

Thanks for the quick replies everyone.
Thanks for the info on the recoil, that was my largest concern simply because of the size of the gun. I don't figure I'll be hopping to the range every week with it, but enough to stay comfortable and accurate with it.
I thought about going with the .40 since I already have some rounds for it and it's a familiar caliber for me. Though around here for me at least it's been harder to find the .40 of late. I always see the .357sig rounds at the local shops and at Walmart. I guess for me it comes down to wanting a different type of round than what I already have.
I'll have to find out which gun is available around here since their costs should be the same.
357SIG is nice, but I tend to carry my G23 more often than the G33 now.
Recoil isn't bad. I can control it quite well (enough I feel comfortable enough carrying it daily).
Knowing is half the battle.
I love my G-33. Very accurate for such a small gun. I think about all you are going to notice is that it's a bit louder than any of the others. The recoil is about the same if you shoot the other calibers regular. ( or it is to me anyway) Anyway it's a great round. I like it so much I am purchasing a G-32 barrel for my G-23 (40 cal) All I need is the barrel, the 40 cal mags work just fine with the 357 Sig. round.
As much as I love my G33 I really don't see how you gain much of anything with 9 rounds of .357 over your current G26 with 10 rounds of a stout +P 9mm. There are some awesome +P 9mm rounds out there now that are right there with the 357.
@thinktwice, thank you for your input, that's what I was wanting to know.
@jbabbler, the reason for the possible switch that I didn't mention in the beginning is that my wife is hoping to take the class and get her license this summer. She might be taking the 26 for her use and if she does then the 33 was the option I was thinking about. Something new and different, no sense in having two of the exact same guns imo.
One nice thing I found about going from .45 acp to 9mm for my EDC. My wife doesn't carry but if I go down she'll be able to handle my 19 better than she would my 1911.
And since when is there anything wrong with 2 of the same GLOCK?

With great power comes great responsibility.-Stan Lee
G33? I say go for it although you might be better off with the G32 if you go 357SIG on the Glock. I'm still on the fence with a new Glock myself, and I actually want one in a caliber that's not so available in my neck of the woods, and that's either a 45G.A.P., or a 357SIG. I've found a home in the G27 for carry....I don't think I'll even attempt to get another Glock in a sub compact in a different caliber actually. IMO...if you don't go with a G27 and want the 357SIG, try the compact G32 before you decide on a G33. It may save you some time and ammo.

Can someone tell me the difference between…say…….a 10degree EE quilt or a 20 degree quilt with overstuff? What do you have then, a 10 degree quilt?

The 10 has more loft than the 20.May 2, 2013 at 9:34 am #1982531
Casey JonesMember
The Rev 10 has a 1/2" greater baffle height and loft than the Rev20. It might be close to a 10* quilt. Not sure how much the shorter baffle affects down compression and insulation. Might me negligible.
If you overstuff the Rev20 to match the fill weight of the 10* quilt, it would cost the same as the Rev 10, so why wouldn't you just get the 10* quilt if that's what you're targeting?
Edit: Corbin beat me to it.May 2, 2013 at 9:42 am #1982534
I didnt do a good job of my initial question.
Let me take another stab at it.
Why would someone buy a 20degree quilt..then overstuff it?
WHy not buy the quilt specs they want?
Am I missing something?May 2, 2013 at 9:53 am #1982538

I have an EE Rev 40 with 1oz of overstuff. I spent one night with temps in the upper 30's and was fine. No extra layers. I figured for the slight weight penalty and $5 cost, I could have something that will work 95% of the time for me.May 2, 2013 at 10:01 am #1982541
J RBPL Member
The fill weight of the 10* is 3oz more than the fill weight of the 20*. So yes, there would be no point to getting 3oz of overstuff on a 20* quilt, you would just be taking the same amount of down as in a 10* quilt but over-packing it into smaller baffles.
The overstuff is sold in 1oz increments so you can get "in between" — so take a 20* quilt and overstuff 1oz you've created about a 17* quilt, overstuff 2oz and you've got about a 14* quilt. The numbers don't work exactly like that, it isn't linear because the baffle height is designed to accommodate a certain amount of loft, overstuffing adds more insulation but if it impacts loft then you won't get 100% of the overstuff benefit, but you get the general idea.May 2, 2013 at 10:11 am #1982545
Dustin ShortBPL Member
Over stuffing also has the added benefit that the down is better stabilized. You'll get less down shifting off your body into the sides of a quilt/bag when overstuffed. There is a minor warmth/weight performance hit by doing so but a slight benefit to functional warmth as well.May 2, 2013 at 10:11 am #1982546
Jerry AdamsBPL Member
@retiredjerryLocale: Oregon and Washington
The reason for overstuff is to maintain down in all the baffles, even if some baffles have a little less than others and as the down gets wet or dirty and loses some loft.
If you don't do the overstuff, maybe in these conditions you will occasionally notice that some baffles don't seem to have any down in them at places so you have to start shifting down around.
If you got the quilt with the thicker baffles and the same amount of down, it might be vulnerable to this problem.
Of course it depends on that particular lot of down, how it's constructed, how much down the manufacturer chooses. If the manufacturer skimps on the down to save money and weight then it's more of a problem.May 2, 2013 at 10:13 am #1982547

Casey JonesMember
Keep in mind that with the 2013 EE quilts, Tim changed the specs so the baffle walls are closer together for less down shift. Overstuffing for stability of down shifting alone may not be as necessary as with the earlier versions.May 2, 2013 at 12:43 pm #1982592

I live in a hot desert and have thin blood. I will be cold in a 20 degree rated quilt or bag when it is actually 20 degrees.
Ray Estrella lives in some god-forsaken ice box of a state and would probably be rather warm in the same quilt or bag.May 2, 2013 at 12:47 pm #1982596
Jerry AdamsBPL Member
@retiredjerryLocale: Oregon and Washington
"Tim changed the specs so the baffle walls are closer together for less down shift."
It seems like there should be a relationship like the baffle width should be twice the loft.
Baffle width more than this results in more down shifting creating spots in a baffle with no down.
Just speculating – I haven't heard any expert have an opinion.May 2, 2013 at 1:06 pm #1982604

@bj-clark-2-2Locale: Colorado
Good answers all around. I just went through this with Tim at EE. I was going to add 2 ounces to the 20 degree and he thought that would be about a 15 degree bag, but with the baffles holding more. I then realized that as a cold sleeper, I could go with the 10 degree quilt for about 2.5 ounces more than the overstuff and not worry about the cold at all Yes the baffles are bigger, but it is a great quilt. Slept down to 14 degrees in it so far and I was plenty warm. My original a thought was to go with 15 and 35 degree quilts with overstuff. Decided on 10 and 30 degree quilts instead. Either way will work.May 2, 2013 at 2:44 pm #1982631

Why do EE quilts have such large baffle spacing? Doesn't that lead to more of the down shifting, compared to a more conventional baffle spacing? Is the large baffle spacing the main reason EE quilts are lower priced?

This has certainly been my experience with my 40 degree overstuffed quilts (older style). Most people seem happy though and as mentioned earlier the baffle spacing has been reduced.May 2, 2013 at 3:59 pm #1982669

@marshlaw303Locale: Minnesota
Our baffles really cant be compared apples to apples with any thing else out there. They aren't tubes, and they arent just boxes so nothing else you can find is like ours. This can complicate comparisons but we think these baffles work great, allow customization no others offer and allow us to keep the cost down.
The reduced gap size for 2013 has fixed any issues with shifting we had in the past in our 30-40* quilts. Multiple stuffing cycles may result in slightly uneven distribution but it is very easy to even it out again every so often.

Slight thread drift, but others brought it up in response to original poster….
Ive wondered about overstuffing from an alternative angle. If i get a 30 degree bag and the down shifts, people will say "Next time get it overstuffed."
If billy bob the next day comes in here and says he also got the same brand sleeping bag, but in a 20 degree version, oh, and by the way, his down shifts…. People will tell him to get overstuff.
Well, if the overstuffed worked on the 30 degree bag… Why would a 20 shift at all. It shouldnt if overstuffing worked on the 30.
You know what I think. Continous baffles suck. Period. I have no experience with thr karo baffle system. but in general, I think, outside of getting in between temp ratings, overstuffing is a marketing tool and gimmick.. Od course, if you stuff enough down in a limited area, at some point it will not shift.
I literally have not had a 15 degree bag or warmer wirh horizontal continous baffles keep down from shifting around the shoulder and chest area. EVER. I think most people either just dont notice and have warmer then needed bags. And i am hard pressed to figure out how so many people claim continous baffles is a feature – and not a liability in most common situations and needs.
I applaud EE for trying to impeove down migration by changing baffle spacing. Personally, i just dont see why more bags just dont have chambers in their baffles or the karo baffles without the opened space at the 4 corners, in both cases, to keep the down inplace.
Seriously, how many people really need to move their down so much. Ive used my 0 into the 40s without moving any down. I can kind of see a 30 degree bag perhaps, trying to stretch it into the high 50s or 60s… But for the life of me, i cannot understand why so many people just accept the ability to move down as an accepted, universal feature… But never get tired of waking up cold and having to push their down bag into place at night. I guess some of you sleep totally still… Or its just me!?May 3, 2013 at 1:39 am #1982781

Fitz, without any quilt experience per se I tend to agree with you. It's always seemed to me that allowing down to shift would mostly be a nuisance rather than a benefit. That said, I haven't used these Karo baffles, they might be totally awesome but I still don't think that if I had them I would use them.
I would be worried about shifting too much down away at the start of the night and waking up freezing, and then waking up my tent/hut companions by trying to shift down back where I need it. The whole point of a quilt is that you can open it up or wear more or less clothing in order to adjust your warmth, shifting down around as well seems like more effort than it's worth for me. That said, I hear the new Karo baffles are good at keeping down in place, so I am thinking about buying an EE quilt anyway.May 3, 2013 at 6:40 am #1982813

All down shifts unless overstuffed, Ive never found its much of a problem.
I have a quilt from EE, a WM bag, and Montbell bag.
They all do it.
Yes , you are supposed to have 2" loft, and you have a spot on top of you thats 1".
It really makes small difference in the overall scheme of things, somewhere else is 3"
More heat lost in one spot, less lost in another.
Its the average that counts
Provided its not too severe and all on top of you where heat loss is greatestMay 3, 2013 at 8:11 am #1982834

"Well, if the overstuffed worked on the 30 degree bag… Why would a 20 shift at all. It shouldnt if overstuffing worked on the 30."
You're assuming that baffles are the same in both 20 and 30 degree bags. Yes, they may have aame width and length, but baffle height is different. They're made to hold different volumes of down.May 3, 2013 at 11:15 am #1982886

" i just dont see why more bags just dont have chambers in their baffles or the karo baffles without the opened space at the 4 corners, in both cases, to keep the down inplace."
Very good question Fitz. I have quilts and sleeping bags. And you're right; the ones that don't shift are my box-stiched Western Mountaineering (s). When I take/use my Caribou or POD30, that's one less hassle (no down shifting). It's too bad WM quit their POD series. Their POD15 was 2lbs and it was box stitched. People guess "It will be cold at the seams/stiches". Nope; not the way WM did it. I applaud those manufacturers that can keep down from shifting (nada, zilch) w/o overstuffing.

Coonan talks up media law changes
13/07/2006 After more than a decade, Helen Coonan has finally managed to achieve what her predecessor couldn't - Cabinet approval for a sweeping shake-up of the Australian media industry. Unveiling the plan today, Senator Coonan was adamant it was all about consumers and not designed to keep media moguls happy.

And more Israeli troops have been moved into the Gaza Strip in an escalation of the conflict there.
Costello reserves right to challenge PM
12/07/2006 Peter Costello today made his biggest threat to harmonious government. He's reserved the right to challenge for the party leadership if an orchestrated handover doesn't materialise. After two days of very public disagreement, the Treasurer called a press conference to detail just what he told the Prime Minister when they met privately after yesterday's Cabinet meeting. He wants Mr Howard to step aside, saying anything other than a smooth leadership transition could damage the Government at the next election. But at the same time, he's flatly rejected John Howard's accusations that he's treating the party leadership as his plaything.
Pressure on Hamas
12/07/2006 The latest attacks along the border with Lebanon come at a time of extraordinary tension in Gaza. Over two weeks of confrontation, more than 50 Palestinians have been killed, along with one Israeli soldier. Hamas has accused Israel of using the offensive to try to topple its elected government. Israel says it is merely attempting to free its soldier, whose abduction sparked the crisis. The conflict is set against the backdrop of a US-led aid embargo, which is designed to force the Hamas-led Government to renounce violence. But the cutting-off of assistance has prompted the European Union and the United Nations to warn of a humanitarian catastrophe in the densely populated territory.
Analyst warns of further Middle East violence
12/07/2006 Martin Indyk is a former US ambassador to Israel, he served as assistant secretary of state and was Bill Clinton's Middle East adviser at the National Security Council.

10/07/2006 Ian McLachlan has put out a statement reinforcing his comments from the weekend. In it, he says, "there was no doubt in my mind Peter Costello would have contested the leadership had the arrangements not been in place. He was, after all, the deputy leader at the time." That would be the arrangements for a handover in one and a half terms. But Bronwyn Bishop, the member for Mackellar and one of the Prime Minister's staunchest supporters, says there was no deal.

10/07/2006 Up until now, there has been a group of academics and researchers making the claim that the world has reached its oil peak, but today in Sydney the warning came from inside the oil industry.

Discover revealed the 5% cash back bonus categories for January through March 2017. You'll earn the bonus on purchases at gas stations, ground transportation, and wholesale clubs.
It's still too soon to activate the bonus. You'll have to wait until December 1, 2016. The bonus will apply to eligible purchases between January 1, 2017, and March 31, 2017.
Here's more about Discover's quarterly bonuses.
Discover 5X Categories January 2017
Link: Discover it Cash Back Calendar
You can get up to $75 cash back each quarter on bonus categories with your Discover it card.
The Discover 5X categories starting January 2017 will be:
- Gas stations
- Ground transportation
- Wholesale clubs
You can activate the bonus starting December 1, 2016 for spending from January 2017 through March 2017.
With this list of bonus categories, you'll have many options to earn 5% back.
For example, you can make in-store purchases with your card at wholesale clubs like Sam's Club. Or make online purchases with your card at Costco. Remember, Costco only accepts Visa cards in-store.
And the ground transportation bonus category is broad. It includes purchases like subway passes, railway tickets, taxis and tour bus tickets. Plus, I suspect it will include Uber and Lyft spending.
And the card has no foreign transactions fees, so you can use it on bonus purchases overseas!
Folks fueling up will also earn 5% back at gas stations with the Discover it card. Keep in mind, gas stations at supermarkets may not be eligible.
Discover it Cash Back Card Offer
Link: Discover it
The Discover it card is great for folks who like cash back. And it's a no annual fee card with NO foreign transaction fees.
Although I prefer the Chase Freedom card because you can earn flexible Chase Ultimate Rewards points towards Big Travel instead of just cash back.
But there's a terrific perk for new Discover it cardmembers. Discover will match the cash back you've earned after the 12th billing cycle. So any purchases you made in the 5% bonus categories will get you 10% cash back!
Bottom Line
The Q1 2017 Discover 5% cash back bonus categories include gas stations, ground transportation, and wholesale clubs. You can earn up to $75 cash back on bonus categories each quarter with Discover's rotating bonus categories.
Mark your calendar for December 1, 2016, to activate your Discover it card for the first quarter 2017 bonus categories.
Plus, there's still time left activate your card to earn 5% cash back at department stores, Sam's Club, & Amazon!
And remember, if you're a new cardmember, Discover will automatically match all the cash back you've earned at the end of your 1st year on your credit card.

Compare great Dodge White Smoke from Exhaust prices in Roehampton with Who Can Fix My Car.
Fantastic service, friendly, kept me up to date with the problem and the work was carried out on the same day. Perfect service will be using this garage from now on. And will definately be booking my service. X
Car failed MOT with some minor issues and needed a few things touching up, outside of that, which Roberto was happy to accommodate. Also identified an issue with a wheel bearing. Was kept informed on progress and price the whole way in a timely manner, very pleasant guys to deal with. Will be returning in a few months to investigate possible worsening of play on the passenger side front suspension.
Kyle was really supportive and provided a detailed diagnosis
Polite, professional, quick, and excellent communication. Would definitely use again.
A great garage with excellent customer service. I brought my 1990 Range Rover along with a replacement exhaust all boxed up ready to be put on, these guys did a great job and worked around me in terms of looking after the car until I could collect it. Explained everything on the phone, were very thorough - couldn't recommend them enough! Great little gem in London.
Friendly and efficient service, wouldn't hesitate to recommend!
Paul was really helpful and had the fan and re-wiring done within a couple of hours and I picked my car up the same day. They also cleaned it for me which was an added bonus and greatly appreciated! Im sticking with this garage from now on!
Like most car owners, I have my preferred garage but tried Paul and his team when my usual place couldn't urgently schedule a repair to pass an MOT. Paul took the car in the next day, talked me through the whole process, gave me options and completed an excellent job exactly when he said he would. Would highly recommend.
I have used Paul and Central Car Care a number of times now. They offer a fantastic service and nothing is too much of an issue for the customer. The only surprise is the cost, given they are in Kensington..... always value for money! Thanks again.
Tried the suggested remedies but didn't solve the problem.
Did a good job, no problems
Good job!
Great quality and quick job, everything as described.
Good service, happy with the result.
I picked these chaps as they were reasonably close and had a good rating. I assumed they would call me as the email I received said but no one ever called and so I used someone else. I would give zero stars but the website won't let me.
Good hassle free service, will use them again
Advised me of work needing doing, and carried out the works to get it through mot, little disapointed at paying full price for MOT after website says half price with full service.
good service, fair price including extras
Car was booked in for brake pads and decided to have the mot done as well Burbank garage said it didn't need brake pads doing and the car had failed the mot so booked it back in a week later and had the bits done and had it retested for mot which it passed the one thing I found with this garage was how honest they were where a lot of places would of done the brake pads even if they needed doing or not so I would definitely recommend this place and will be using them again
Excellent comms, accurate pricing, and a professional and prompt service - would definitely use again.
I didn't have the chance to take the car to their garage as AA came and fixed the breakdown but I appreciated the outstanding communication and the friendly help on the phone.
Great quick service. I arrived earlier than my appointment and was seen straight away. Took under an hour! Great job. Thanks guys.
As quoted, finished when promised - can't ask for more. Would definitely recommend.
Cannot recommend this place enough. fully serviced, MOT'd and replaced a part for an excellent price and have since been back for more work to be done which was completed quickly and efficiently. Excellent customer service from Alex who gave advice on what to do with regards to further repairs. 10/10!!
Yes! Prompt diagnostics, and timely service. Very friendly and knowledgeable.

Christina Aguilera's festive night out with Rutler
"Christina was in a great mood and seemed very into Matt," People Magazine quoted an onlooker as saying. Aguilera spent Thanksgiving in Los Angeles with friends. Then after the holiday, the singer and Rutler, who worked as a set assistant on her film 'Burlesque", jetted to New York, while her son Max stayed with his dad for the holiday weekend.
"This is the first Thanksgiving she was without Max. It was really hard for her and she was feeling sad, so she decided to go to the East Coast with Matt and a group of friends," a source said. On Saturday, Aguilera, Rutler and a few pals went to Rhode Island for a spontaneous visit to Rutler's family home where they spent time with his mom, Kathleen.
"Since his family lives so close, they decided to drop in for a few hours," said the source. But the source insists that meeting the family doesn't mean Aguilera and Rutler are getting more serious. "They"re still getting to know each other better," the source added. That night, the couple partied at the Boom Boom Room atop the Standard Hotel together in New York City.

Depends on the legal age limit based on the laws in the area you live in and your own personal morals. In america it's 18. but if you want to have sex later like say after marriage, then do so. It's up to you, just make sure you are of legal age first or you, and your partner, can get in trouble.

No! Are you burping the baby properly after feeding? That should help alleviate the problem. Also, breastfed babies have less gas than bottlefed babies do. Bottle-feeding could be causing the problem.

Killing of at least 10 Maoists, most of them belonging to other backward classes like Yadavs, of the banned outfit CPI (Maoist) by breakaway faction Tritiya Sammelan Prastuti Committee (TSPC) in Jharkhand, has again highlighted the brewing caste feud amongst Maoists who are seemingly fighting a class war.
"Besides the killing of Yadav naxals, the TSPC has also abducted at least 10 to 15 cadres of the CPI (Maoist). Now they will be tried in so called 'Jan Adalats' and a spectacle will be made out it. Foot soldiers will be asked to join the breakaway faction and the rest will be punished with sentences varying from death to chopping of limbs,' said a home ministry official on condition of anonymity.
According to sources, the TSPC was formed in 2002 against the hegemony of Yadavs in the naxal ranks by tribal Maoists belonging mainly to the Oraon, Ghanju, Turi and Badai castes. "It can be called a tribal-non tribal feud also but these non-tribals are basically Yadavs," said the official.
