1. Flaw but Good Store
By Nancy M from Tennessee on Apr 29, 2011
Brilliant Store is a good merchant; unfortunately, The part number is for 3 or 4 different batteries. I"m pleased with dealing with this company but am unhappy that I had to pay for shipping to return an earlier product which was defective when I received it. Real pain in the butt and it"s not your fault, that there are so many different batteries for the laptops. I have spent more time trying figuring out if I was buying the right battery. The old battery wasn"t much help and it was a good thing I still had the original shipping materials. But this store company was quick/good/accurate and has a very nice deal. I am very happy with this transaction and look forward to doing business here again. By the by, I"ll need coupons or free shipping.
2. Satisfying Purchase

4. Fast Shipping
By heidi from Ohio on Apr 3, 2008
Ordering was VERY EASY. I made a mistake on my e-mail address and (oddly enough) I still got their confirmation e-mail. As soon as I noticed my error I contacted them and they fixed my error and sent me an updated e-mail. My order arrived MUCH faster than I anticipated - Thank You!!! Excellent Experience!!!!

Schlechte Schrauben, sonst gut
Da das Set und die dazugehörigen Spiegel universell sind, gibt es ja keine Rastnasen o.ä. die die Spiegel in die richtige Position bringen. Daher muss man die Schrauben relativ fest anziehen damit alles in Position bleibt. Dafür sind die Schrauben aber zu weich. Die Inbusaufnahmen werden sofort rund.
Sonst aber gut

A moment of lucid serenity.Mature
Cassidy and Julie sat up late that night they were both really tired but neither could sleep. The next morning Cassidy was woken by her phone. It was Wright.
"Morning sir, is everything okay?"
"Cassidy there's been a complication"
"What? What kind of complication?"
It's Tony. He's taken a turn for the worst..."
"No... We were with him a few hours ago... He was fine. He..."
I'm sorry Cass, the doctors say... It's not good"
"How not good"
"Just go I don't know how much time he has"
Those words hit her like a wreaking ball, they echoed around inside her head.
"Thank you sir, I'm on my way".
She ran in to Julie. She couldn't believe it either. They got organised and were preparing to leave when the phone rang again. It was Wright.
"We're just leaving now. Is everything okay?"
There was an eerie pause on the line.
"Cassidy, I'm sorry. He's gone".
It made her wobble a bit as she walked towards the door and she needed to catch her breath. She gulped in the air.
"What did you say?"
"I'm sorry Cass, Tony's just died"
Time slowed down for Cassidy, that moment seemed to linger for an eternity. She slid slowly down the wall, thinking about Tony. A lucid moment, where this wasn't happening. The moment of serenity passed. Julie screamed. Cassidy's moment had passed and been replaced with anger.
I don't believe it! Have you seen him?"
No reply came
"Have YOU SEEN Him!"
"No. The British have him. They won't let us anywhere near him now. They'll contact us when they have the details. He's already on his way back to England. He'll receive a full naval honours funeral" he paused. "I'm sorry Councel, he was one hell of an agent... Take as much time as you need".
Cassidy and Julie sat on the floor together hugging each other and weeping on each other's shoulders for about an hour. Julie spoke in sign.
Cassidy there's something you should know"
"At the hospital when he woke up
"You were there then?"
"Why didn't you say?"
"He asked me not to"
"Because mine wasn't the first name he called out when he woke up... It was yours".
Cassidy jumped up.
"No. This is not right. He was fine... something's happened. I know it"
"Do you think he was..."
"Murdered. I don't know but I need to get access to hospitals video surveillance. I can't go through regular channels the British and our military will have it locked down and hidden forever before long".
She grabbed her phone
"And I know just the person to help me"
She tapped the screen a few times.
"Hi Donovan, you know you're always saying, that you never get out in the field and involved with all this spy stuff... Well welcome to the team".
She explained that this was strictly an under the radar operation and he was to come over to her apartment with the equipment he needed.

Modern newspapers are overflowing with charts. The New York Times, Washington Post and Wall Street Journal dedicate immense resources to making graphics for both their print and online editions.
But it was not always so.
The New York Times was first published in 1851. From nearly the beginning of its existence, the Times brimmed with data like stock prices, weather statistics, and sports scores. But for the first century of publication, the use of charts to display that data was rare.
In order to understand when charts started appearing in papers, we collected data on the number of charts in editions of the New York Times over its history. We checked a weekday, September edition of the paper every five years from 1855 to 2015. We chose the Times because of its rich archives and because we found it to be representative of trends in the newspaper industry.
Though statistical graphics were already in fairly common use by the turn of the 19th Century, the pre-1930 editions we examined had exactly zero charts. Every paper since 1930 has had at least one Chart, and the 2010 and 2015 editions each included more than twenty.
The Chart is now accepted as an integral tool for journalism. What took so long?
The Dark Ages (1930 and Before)
The modern statistical chart was invented by the Scottish political economist William Playfair at the end of the 18th Century. In a fit of astonishing innovation from 1786 to 1801, Playfair made the first known bar chart, line chart, and pie chart.
Historians believe that Playfair's development of the statistical chart was a response to the surge in the availability of economic and demographic data collected by governments. Suddenly, efficient ways to express all this information were necessary. The chart filled that need.
Playfair's data visualizations did not quickly catch on. They were initially considered childish by serious academics.
The use of statistical graphics did not proliferate in Playfair's lifetime—he died in 1823. But by the beginning of the 20th Century, graphical representations of data were common in textbooks and used by governments, financiers, and scientists. Both the French and American governments annually published statistical atlases filled with charts that aimed to explain the world.
Yet charts were nowhere to be seen in the newspaper.
There were lots of statistics in the paper. Journalists wrote about trends in the bond markets, activity in the commodity markets, and changing birth rates. Numbers were a big part of the media; they just weren't visualized.
Given the vast amounts of data in the paper, why the rarity of charts?
There is little academic research on the subject, but the most likely explanation is a combination of technological hurdles and the public's unfamiliarity with statistical graphics.
Making charts in the first half of the 20th Century meant hand drawing them—with a little help from primitive technology. Chart makers' main tools were rulers, graph paper, and compass pens. Journalists did not make charts without seriously considering whether it was worth the time.
When newspapers did choose to publish a chart, the average person might not understand it. Though data visualization was common in academia, government, and science, the average person was not accustomed to interpreting charts. Charts were still such a rarity in the early part of the 20th Century that in 1913 there was a "parade of statistical graphics" in New York City .
July 4, 1933, is arguably the day that data visualization became a permanent part of mainstream media.
On that day, with no fanfare, our analysis suggests that the New York Times published a stock market line chart for the very first time. A stock market line chart is that most famous of graphics that shows trends in the performance of an index of stocks over a given period.
Charts did appear in the Times prior to that day, but inconsistently. Some days the paper contained no charts at all.

Finding the best Christmas lights in Brisbane in 2016 isn't easy, which is why we've done the ground work for you! There are a range of different websites, contests and lots of awesome displays that you will never find in print. Our mission is to link with the best contests, and locate the best houses and different light displays throughout QLD.
Click here for the Brisbane Kids Christmas Lights list 2016
Finding the best places for Christmas Lights is hard work. So, if you are one of those special people taking the time to light up your home and you honestly believe it is worth people coming to look them, please email us at [email protected]. We would welcome any video or still footage you have of your lights, including the before and after shots.
Our advice when heading out to see Christmas lights is to take some torches or glow sticks for the kids. Approaching homes on foot can be quite a journey, especially at the bigger light locations where literally hundreds of people can be visiting every night. While the home with Christmas Lighting will be well lit, the homes around it may not. Be courteous to neighbours – try to avoid shining your car lights in their windows, and do what you can to reduce the impact to them – ensuring good neighbour relations and a long future of Christmas lights.
4KQ run a huge competition every year- www.4kq.com.au.
Brisbane City Council Bus Tours start on the 19th Dec and run until the 23rd Dec. The tours take 3 hours. To purchase tickets, please head to http://www.ticketek.com.au.
If you are wondering how people get on a Christmas light list, it is all in the preparation. Some spend many years gathering a collection of Christmas decorations, often purchasing after the Christmas rush and using websites like HOME, Temple and Webster, Mumgo and other discount sites to add to their collections. Gumtree is another place to check out discounted Christmas lights, but buying from here will not ensure that the lights are safe.
If you are unsure about the safety of your Christmas light display, you should consider getting your local firies out to inspect and you may need to make sure you have proper equipment that separates the lights from your main power source. These are all questions for a professional and if you are looking to have an extreme Christmas lights display, then calling an electrician first for advice may be worthwhile.
If you are like us, and you are more of an observer, then our Christmas Lights list in Brisbane for 2015 is going to be just what you are looking for. We will aim to collate all the winners of the main awards, any emailed directly to us and a host of others that simply can't commit to the lighting requirements of the main awards. We suggest, in addition to viewing our list, you should check out 4KQ and The Brisbane Times.
To anyone who takes the time to set up Christmas Lights: You should know that you are honouring the spirit of Christmas and keeping it alive for Brisbane Kids everywhere. Driving around and looking at the lights is a tradition for many families and, for us as a family, we really enjoy playing the spot the Christmas lights as we drive around on our way to the bigger displays like yours. Thank you so much for both viewing this list and taking the time to submit your lights, we wish you all a very Merry Christmas in Brisbane with Kids.
NOTE: These Brisbane Christmas light locations have been sourced from direct emails sent to Brisbane Kids, as well as 4KQ, Redland City Bulletin, and various individual Facebook pages belonging to locations with large light displays.
Other places you can find Christmas Lights in Brisbane
Keep in mind the lights on this list tend to attract a lot of traffic. Allow yourself plenty of time when travelling. It is good to look at a lot of the local papers for lights because many houses will be featured that wont meet the strict 4kq criteria or simply choose not to participate in such a large promotion.

The recently published A People's History of London, by Lindsey German and John Rees is reviewed by the Morning Star:
Lindsey German and John Rees have undertaken a formidable task. In one volume, they seek to encapsulate the history of London in terms of the ordinary people who have shaped it and given it its spirited life.
It's a history familiar to socialists and London lovers and what the book succeeds in doing is relating past with current struggles.
In a recent piece for In These Times Slavoj Žižek reflects on the outcome of the Greek elections on the 17th of June, analysing how Syriza, the radical left coalition, came close to smashing the entire set of the European Union's crockery. Dismissing the EU's austerity measures as nonsense, Žižek says:
So why does Brussels impose these plans? What matters in contemporary capitalism is that agents act upon their putative beliefs about future prospects, regardless of whether they really believe in those prospects. And, as we also all know, the true aim of these rescue measures is not to save Greece, but to save the European banks.
To illustrate the mistake of enacting austerity measures as the main strategy to combat the crisis, Paul Krugman often compares them to the medieval cure of blood-letting. That's a nice metaphor that should be radicalized even further. The European financial doctors, who are themselves not sure about how the medicine works, are using the Greeks as test rabbits and letting their blood, not the blood of their own countries. There is no blood-letting for the great German and French banks—on the contrary, they are getting continuous and enormous transfusions.
"We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their creator with inherent and [certain] inalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, & the pursuit of happiness: that to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men..." - Thomas Jefferson, The Declaration of Independence.
Two hundred and thirty six years on from the Declaration of Independence, political engagement is still a necessity for the masses. Widespread civil rights movements are rising all over the world, in many guises – the Arab Spring, Anonymous, Los Indignados, Greece, the movement against precarity in Portugal – and Jefferson's writings can once again remind us that inspired words can bind a nation together, catalysing an extraordinary revolution.

This is the next blog in the continuing series of interviews with top-echelon and renowned professionals. In this blog, I interview Matt Valentine: Industry-Leading Technology and Solutions Architect, Microsoft Redmond — Matt shares his insights on "Practical Architecture in Impractical Times".
Stephen Ibaraki
Matt Valentine joined Microsoft in 2003 to focus on helping customers address business challenges by using world-class distributed-computing technologies. He has over 15 years of experience in architecting and delivering application, database, Web, and transaction systems solutions with major corporations, including AT&T, IBM, ATG, and Microsoft. Key distributed-application projects have included telecommunications OSS projects, distributed insurance solutions, and several of the world's largest travel e-commerce sites. Matt holds a BS in Computer Science from Bucknell University and works on the Application Platform Marketing team at the Microsoft world headquarters in Redmond, WA. You can contact him at email@example.com.
See Matt's article, "Practical Architecture in Impractical Times" at: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/architecture/aa902620.aspx

Interview Time Index (MM:SS) and Topic
Matt, can you tell us a little about yourself and your role at Microsoft.
"….Specifically, I work with customers, partners and technical communities to improve Microsoft's understanding of their business and IT challenges so that we, as a product marketing and development organization, can ensure that we're providing customers with the best tool, framework and products that they need to grow, compete and be successful…"
What triggered your initial interest in technology?
"….For me, it all started with Lego blocks. The Lego blocks allowed me to learn the basics of engineering – levers, pulleys, gears, motors, etc. They really unlocked my imagination…."
What lessons can you share from your prior roles?
"…The biggest lesson that I would share is: Don't lose the source code…..Seriously the three major lessons I would share with up and coming IT professionals are: Time is the most important variable….Software is a still a mystery to many….IT is a science and an art…."
In your role, you work closely with customer and communities; what do you hear as the biggest obstacles IT organizations are challenged with?
"….In my experience working with customers and communities, the biggest challenge I hear of continues to be how to effectively drive alignment between business objectives and what IT can deliver…."
How would you describe your top innovative achievements in terms of the problems you were trying to solve, your solutions, and the impact it has today and into the future?
"….It's not uncommon for IT professionals, analysts, designers, developers and testers to all be using different tools and this increases the friction between development roles. With an integrated application development and management system like Visual Studio Team System and System Center, businesses can expect to increase productivity, as well as deliver more stable, secure, scalable and manageable business applications…."
Describe your current work and what you hope to achieve?
"…In my current role, I am focusing on creating a bridge between Microsoft and our customers and partners through effective community engagement. It is absolutely critical to stay plugged into the IT community through User Groups, professional associations, blogs, social media. Social media is emerging as a really interesting way to do this…."
Why is driving alignment between business and IT more important than ever?
"….The current economic environment with increased expectations of IT and fewer resources, the ability to drive alignment between business and IT has never been more critical than it is right now…."
How does the recession deliver unparalleled opportunities for innovation?
"….The fact is that in any economy, innovation is the foundation for success. While there is an overall slowdown in spending, organizations will still need to make smart investments in innovation to help them grow…."
Why does a practical approach to IT focus on balancing business, technology, and user goals with the objective of delivering near-term revenue and efficiency gains?
"….A practical approach to IT strategy and architecture seeks to balance business goals (like increasing share or customer satisfaction), technology goals (like increasing reliability and scalability) and user goals (like productivity and ease of use)…."
Can you summarize the key points in your article, "Practical Architecture in Impractical Times"?
"….Practical architecture focuses on finding an effective IT strategy that balances four areas:…Driving efficiency through effective IT practices….Finding new opportunities to grow the business….Creating new efficiencies to reduce costs….Helping all users increase productivity….[Editor note: See article: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/architecture/aa902620.aspx….]"
What action should be taken by those responsible for creating efficiencies to reduce costs?
"….Driving down the cost of IT by using things such as server virtualization and database consolidation to reduce the cost of running those server workloads….Driving down operational costs through improved business-process flow, automation, management, and optimization….."
What can be done to find new opportunities to grow the business?
"….IT initiatives that increase the quality, timeliness, usefulness and flow of information have a direct correlation to increased revenue…."
What are the best ways to help all users: developers, administrators and analysts increase productivity?
"….For IT professionals, this means creating effective collaboration-oriented architectures that help people create, distribute, analyze, and share information by using a combination of on-premise and off-premise software and services…."
How do you manage change?
"….By applying an agile development methodology to all projects in which work is performed in small, rapid increments with minimal planning and is aligned closely with customer needs and company goals, change can be managed more easily…."
Please make predictions for the future, their implications, and how business executives and IT professionals can best prepare?
"….The biggest change I see is around the concept of cloud computing….I would advise IT professionals to skill-up and develop strategies to take advantage of this new and exciting area of IT…."
It sounds like you are talking about a combination of things like Windows Live, Azure, Business Productivity Online Suites, etc.?
"….The realm of cloud computing is loosely defined at best but those technologies are definitely included…."
What do you see as the three top challenges facing us today and how do you propose they be solved?
"….Surviving in the current economic environment….The complexity of IT….Skills…."
What are the best job resources for IT professionals?
"….Having a network of professional contacts…Participating in user groups, professional associations and ensuring that you are effectively "building your brand" across your organization….."
What are some key lessons that you have learned that you want to pass on to enable the success of those in the audience?
"….Being able to quickly identify patterns and to create a model in my head that allows me to analyze and take action based on what I'm seeing. A certain amount of that is experience and a certain amount is education….Dedicate a certain amount of time to staying on top of the current political, technical and business issues….Never underestimate the importance of communication skills…."
Please provide any comments on the IFIP IP3 program on professionalizing the profession. [http://www.IPThree.org]
"….The IT industry has evolved very quickly and as a result there's a lot of disparity between skills and competencies across the world. This is where a standard means of measurement and independent assurance of skills and competences can help. I think this is a valuable effort…."

The concept of a food desert is pretty simple. It's a neighborhood that has limited access to healthy, affordable foods. And there are plenty of food deserts in Houston: Sunnyside, Independence Heights, Kashmere and the Third and Fifth Wards
are just a few of them.
Studies have shown many residents end up buying expensive, unhealthy food at convenience stores instead. Porfirio Villarreal is with the city's health department.
"Some of the areas considered food deserts really may have one grocery store in one end of the neighborhood and then you have whole swaths of land, communities that don't have any access to any fresh fruits and vegetables. It's really hard
for them to have a healthy lifestyle."
Houston knows it has a problem and is actually trying to do something about it. It hopes to convince brand-name grocers to take a chance in lower-income areas. Councilman Stephen Costello has been outspoken about the problem of food deserts in Houston.
"It's a combination of solving a public health issue as well as an economic development issue. I've always felt that grocers are the cornerstone of a neighborhood and if you can get a grocery store in an area, you can get the satellite businesses associated with a grocery store. And it also creates jobs for the young kids. It creates full and part-time jobs for kids in the neighborhood."
He says he understands why some grocers are reluctant to invest in low income areas.
"We can't dictate where they go, but we can offer some incentives to entice them to go into specific areas. And I firmly believe as we reach out to the business community and try to get economic development in underserved areas, I think we'll be successful over time, but it's just going to take us a little time."
Some grocers are already tackling the problem. HEB has opened several Joe V's stores in lower income areas, including a new one in Acres Homes. Fiesta has also be a leader in opening stores in low income areas. The Food Trust, a national non-profit, is working with the Cty of Houston to find ways to entice more grocers to invest in low-income areas. A program in Pennsylvania, called "Fresh Food Financing," has successfully helped some of those companies with store start-up costs.
Related Articles:
"The exciting thing about this is we really do believe this is a problem we can solve."
The Food Trust's Mariam Manon says Houston could eventually see a similar program.
"There's a lot of grocers who are very interested in coming to the table and talking about how they can be part of the solution, nd we really do believe that in Houston you have everything that it takes to make this project successful."
In the meantime, city officials like Stephen Costello and several of his colleagues on city council say they'll continue to make the elimination of Houston's food deserts and top priority.

2015 was a complex year in Japan with lots to get excited about, a new generation of talent finally starting to break through the wall, multiple national records and world record-setting depth in what seemed like just about every major race, countered by embarrassingly bad World Championships performances, 2020 Tokyo Olympics organizational snafus that ranged from incompetent to much worse, and the consequences of the country's race organizers' and elite athlete coordinators' ready willingness to deal with people who trade freely in dirty athletes finally starting to come home to roost. JRN's top ten most-read articles of 2015:

5. 'Paul Kuira Pulls a Ryan Hall' - Feb. 6
Satire of articles by American site Letsrun.com and Italian athletics writer Alberto Stretti that praised white New Zealander Zane Robertson's outstanding 59:47 debut at the Kagawa Marugame International Half Marathon as "one of the most amazing in history" without even mentioning that he lost to another runner also making his half marathon debut, black Kenyan Paul Kuira (Team Konica Minolta) who set the course record in 59:47.

6. South Korea Plans to Give Citizenship to Kenyan Athlete to Ensure Marathon Gold at Rio Olympics - Mar. 19

Two days after the IAAF's Nov. 13 suspension of the Russian Federation (ARAF) and ban on Russian athletes competing internationally, Victor Ugarov and another Russian athlete ran the first Kanazawa Marathon as part of a sister city relationship between Kanazawa and Irkutsk. Ugarov won in a PB 2:17:19. Kanazawa Marathon officials claimed there was no problem with his participation, but two days later the ARAF announced that his results in Kanazawa would be annulled and that he would face a ban of up to 4 years for violating the IAAF suspension.
8. Kawauchi 6th in TCS New York City Marathon - Nov. 1
Finally shaking off the injuries that had plagued him for nearly ten months following an ankle sprain, Yuki Kawauchi (Saitama Pref.

An April Fools' Day article about 2015 World XC Championships silver medalist Bedan Karoki (DeNA RC) and 2013 Fukuoka International Marathon winner Martin Mathathi (Suzuki Hamamatsu AC), both longtime Japan-resident Kenyans, applying for Japanese citizenship after the Mar. 30 corporate league announcement of a $1 million bonus for breaking the 2:06:16 Japanese national record in the marathon.
10. Back From New York, Kawauchi Defies Federation Expectations With Statement of Intent to Run Own Race in Fukuoka - Nov. 4
Talking to a large scrum of journalists waiting for him at Narita Airport upon his return to Japan from the TCS New York City Marathon, Yuki Kawauchi (Saitama Pref. Gov't) defied JAAF statements that they would prioritize people who tried to run their sub-2:06:30 time standard in selection for the Rio Olympic team, indicating that he would run his own race in Fukuoka and not an unrealistic pace. Despite his words, in Fukuoka he went out at 2:06 pace with the lead group, losing touch just after 10 km and finishing 8th in 2:12:48.

It's been a hectic few weeks for me, and a lot of pieces I've been working on for the last month or so have finally been published. This has been really rewarding and cool.At The Daily Beast, you can read about the latest research on combating anti-vaccine attitudes. Powell and Horne didn't measure how long the change in attitude about vaccines lasted, and it's worth noting that the information about the harms of not vaccinating didn't change anyone's beliefs about the link between vaccines … [Read more...]

Hello dere, I be Pepi and I am about two years old. I came to Friskybiznus pretty recently when my owner called my mom and told her I woke up one day and couldn't use my rear legs. Mommie met us at the vet and sure enough, the vet said some kind of spinal injury made me lose my legs. No one really knows what happened. I do love to climb, so...
Anyway...I was surrendered to da Biz. My injury was new enough that mommie got to work and we did physical therapy on me and guess what?? My legs started working again! It was a miracle!
You can see I have a little limp and I am kinda crooked, but I can keep up with Kip and Oscar (my besties) just fine!
So for this year's Giving Tree, all us guys got together and wanted to help out mommie. She has an illness called fibromyalgia and it make it hard for her to move, but she does it anyway. She quit her job cuz she hurt to much to work, but she said she will always be dere for us!
Mommie worries a lot. She worries there not be enough food or treats or vet funds to take care of us, so we wanted our prezzie to be to help the sanctuary with these things. Besides, we have so many soft beds and toys it's a Ferret Heaven here!
Thanks for reading my story and I sure hope you pick me to be my Santa!

360 Staff Pick: Kid Sister goes Ultraviolet
The prize for best booty-shakin' performance of SXSW in Austin last week goes to Chicago rapper Kid Sister. Her first single, 'Pro Nails' (featuring Kanye West), is just the tip of iceberg. Ultraviolet takes the best of high-energy 80s dance hip-hop and shoots it through a 21st century indie-electro filter: tight, fast beats, crazy synths, rapid-fire lyrics and irresistible hooks. If the opener, 'Right Hand Hi,' doesn't get you off your ass and dancing, I don't know what will.

Date of Stay: June, 2016
We enjoyed our stay. Staff very nice. Park is very well maintained and picked up. Staff working all the time and easy to flag down if you have questions. All the hookups worked great. Some sites have satellite views. Only negative is the usual: wifi never worked in 4 days. Strong signal but no internet access.
Date of Stay: June, 2016
We liked it here. Woodsy with nice scenary. Nicely maintained and good wifi. Quiet. They have a few sites with satellite views. Had no problems maneuvering with a 35' MH and TOAD. Owners could not be nicer. Definitely stay here again.
Date of Stay: June, 2016
It isn't a bad place and we'd stay again. Price is ridiculous: charging KOA rates for a run down campground. The good: it is quiet; safe; good utilities; convenient to the Interstate; owners are nice. The bad: price; price; no WiFi. It would not take much to spruce up the place and make it more presentable.
Date of Stay: June, 2016
Over priced. Not a bad park and well maintained. Sites are close and never understand why they put people next to each other when the park is half empty. Some road noise from I-80 but not too bad. Office staff superb. WiFi useless. Used our cell hot spot the entire time. Never got a reliable connection from the park. That said, we'll stay here when we come back this way.
Date of Stay: June, 2016
Terrible site rating is because they have gone to using the type of parking where rig doors face each other. If I give enough no star reviews maybe KOA will catch on. Shame because the staff is superb, really nice folks. The CG is a good stop overnight. I would not stay here longer because it is all gravel and blah. Trash had not been emptied in the dog park in quite a while, thus the low cleanliness rating. The rest of the park is fine. The cookies they give are great. WiFi was in and out; when in, was great.
Date of Stay: June, 2016
Office staff very nice and not the reason for the "terrible" service rating. Issue was they hosted a beer fest (an annual event?) and, apparently, did not provide any security. Office closed at 8PM and no one enforced quiet time and no one checked for unregistered campers. The site next to us had at least 10+ people in and out all the time. AT 1145PM they had a roaring fire and loud partying. No security. Finally found a number for someone affiliated with the park at 1145. Took 3 calls to this unknown person to get the party shut down. There are many sites where the rig doors face each other forcing you to share "your" outside space with the other rig. Fine if you are buddies but not if you have 10+ drunks using "your" table etc.
Date of Stay: May, 2016
The other May review was spot on. Beautifully maintained facility with great views. Staff very friendly and helpful. Wifi superb...very fast. Some site are satellite friendly so ask when you check in. We'll be back.
Date of Stay: June, 2015
Really happy here. CG is very well maintained and looks very nice. Staff could not be better. Sites are a little close but no more than most KOA's. Very convenient to Jacksonville and Lejeune. Lot's of grassed areas to walk dogs away from others. Very quiet even though US 17 is right out front. WiFi was very good. They have cable but we did not use it. Some treed sites...many open sites. One gripe (and it happens in many CG's it seems): it is, maybe 1/3rd occupied yet they parked 3 of us right next to each other. Awnings almost touching. They could have at least left 1 site between each. They could have left 4 sites between each and had space to spare. Luckily, neighbors on both sides were great. Great cg! We'll be back many times.
Date of Stay: May, 2015
Fantastic. I've paid much more at other CG's and got a lot less. Agree with the other posts. The upper area is very nice and well landscaped. There are a zillion sites spread throughout the fairgrounds but most stay in this area, above the horse park. Excellent wifi. Very quiet park. They water sprayed the roads several times a day so dust was not a problem. Security officers are very friendly and helpful. One told me that direction signs are finally being made and will be installed soon. He also said there will be a check-in building constructed.
Date of Stay: October, 2014
Agree with the June 2014 reviews. We Love this CG! In our top 5. We could stay at the nearby Army CG for half the price but we will stay here. What a great setting so close to Savannah (about 10 minutes). Great places to walk the dogs or stroll on your own. Wonderful grass everywhere. Scenic paths. Beautiful lakes. Very nice community center. In the middle of the main area is a garden that is currently full of pumpkins. This is definitely a farm CG. Electric and water was solid the whole time. A couple of the sites are ridiculously close. Ours was fine as were most...at least as good as most KOA's. The CG complies with the tradition that CG's be near a rail line (joke). It is not used much and a non issue for us. From our site, 6, we could get wifi but I have a roof antenna. They tell you it is only avail in the office. It was great at the site most of the time but did bog down on a couple of days. I had reserved for a period but the day before arrival we decided we wanted to delay arrival. I expected a deposit forfeiture but they said no problem and shifted our dates.
Date of Stay: September, 2014
Agree with the earlier reviews. A very nice park. Paved roads and parking. Cement patio with table and grill. Beautiful views of the lake. Sites can be difficult to back into without getting on the grass, since they are 90 degrees to the road. There was no one here when we arrived and only 1 other rig showed up. Never saw any Park Rangers or security of any kind, and nothing happened. Placed the form and a check in the tube by the entrance. Note to the management: it is hard to find this CG on this site. It doesn't show up on the map and is really no where near Everglades City. I came by here years ago and knew it was here but struggled to find it. GPS says it is at 52388-54004 Tamiami Trail, Ochopee Fl, 34141. 25.85089, -80.99015.
Date of Stay: June, 2014
Great park. Owners have spent a lot of money to create a beautiful park in what was a field. Very modern everything. Nice snack bar. Other reviewers have summed it up well. Rate is Good Sam.
Date of Stay: June, 2014
Outstanding in every way. Not a single issue. I knew it was going to be great when I met Rocky, the Campground Dog, sitting at the check-in table. I have stayed at "Coach Resorts". This beats them all yet is for tent campers to Prevosts. Beautiful, manicured grass everywhere. Owners and staff constantly tending the grounds and taking care of guests. VERY friendly and helpful. Attention to the smallest of details yet unobtrusive...you don't feel like you are being watched for infractions. Dog park is manicured with a holder for campground-supplied toys. Nice dog bowl always full of fresh water. Seasonal rigs are spotless and the owners very hospitable. Quiet! Very pet friendly yet heard no dogs and no poop anywhere. Very nice and expensive gas BBQs placed throughout the park for guest use. Nice fire rings with grill on every site. Huge gathering/meeting room in the office. Excellent free Wi-Fi. Very convenient to Kennebunkport. I could go on but you get the picture. This is the best campground we have ever stayed in.
Date of Stay: September, 2013
Agree with the others and won't repeat the observations. A very nice park that is cared for by very attentive owners. They are very friendly and helpful. They are always working on the park. Grounds are extremely well taken care of. WiFi was very good. Solid Verizon 4G service. They just added 3 pull though sites and 2 back ins. Very quick access to lots of shopping in Hickory. They give a Military discount. Lots of big rigs throughout our 2 week stay. We like this park and will be back.
Date of Stay: June, 2013
Rate is based on a weekly rate. Spotless baths and grounds. Superb Wi-Fi. Some sites are satellite friendly and they have cable. VERY dog friendly. Adults only (to avoid accidents between young ones and dogs). My first visit and will not be the last. A fantastic place if you love dogs. Several off leash areas including two that are for small dogs only. Includes a stream fed pond that pets and their slaves can swim in together. Most sites are very private. The owners are fantastic. They started this facility from scratch and there is a lot of love in it. They hold fantastic events and culinary classes taught by the chef owner who has worked in resorts all over the world. I loved the tapas class. They have dog training classes but none were on this week. There is not a thing I would change...and, no, I have no prior knowledge or affiliation with this park. I just love it.

Thanks for your patience tonight too as I understand the comments weren't turned on initially. We got there in the end!
I'm off to raise a cake to Frances. Good night all.
Thanks so much for joining me tonight. Do we agree that the right woman won?
Mary and Paul would have received death threats if Ruby had won, I think. Such is the anti-Ruby feeling. I don't think she deserved half of the opprobrium she got. She's just young and a it of an Eeyore. Frances is on cloud nine.
Where are they now? Toby is running for cancer charities! Rob is making elaborate chocolate creations! Oh I'm so happy for Rob. I love you Rob. You don't get this with X Factor. Only winning is important on that show but on Bake-Off it really is just the experience. Nice people, in aprons, doing a bit of cooking.
Yes! A just result. She is bamboozled. Kim smiles and hugs her. What's Ruby doing? Well, crying obviously. The trophy is a glass cake stand. It's almost tasteful.
The winner is...FRANCES!
The winner!
The finalists steps forward. Will it be another shit trophy with fake eggs in it?
I'm going to put my money where my mouth is now and say Frances to win. Or Ruby. But not Kim. So probably her.
The bottom later of chocolate fudge with raspberry "spheres". Oh come on Kim, even Nicole Sherzinger lowers herself to saying "balls" if that's what they actually are. Ruby is sobbing as per while the party really swings outside.
Here they come, disappointing wedding cakes in hand as their friends and family applaud them. Meanwhile on the other side of the famous tent flaps, the judges and presenters appraise the final three. Can Kim really win now with that quilt cake? Or will it be Ruby and her hippy vision? Or will it be Frances and her lopsided, modernist flower tower?
The top layer looks good inside but the outside makes me think there should actually be feathers or a foam mattress inside.
And now Kimberley. Is it just me or does her's look rubbish? Like a few cushions piled up with a pearl string strung around the bottom.
And now it's Frances' turn. Wow. That is a beautiful looking cake. But Mary says round the back it's a bit naked. Paul likes the contemporary feel. Her top layer is fruity and spicy but Mary isn't keen on the icing. The Victoria lemon sponge is well-baked. They both agree. And now the rhubarb base layer. Chomp chomp chomp. At least they both chew with their mouths closed. They like the flavour but her rhubarb is "useless". Steady on Paul. Mary soothes and says any bride would love it.
Ruby looks sorry. She bows her head like someone has just put a very heavy hat on her bonce. Paul is already expressing doubts. Pink and yellow with a couple of dragon flies stuck on. It's got a nice hippy vibe. Marry declares it "absolutely scrumptious". Oh my god, Ruby's going to win! NO! "You're cake's too dry," Exocets Paul to a stunned Ruby. She immediately adopts the posture of one about to be beheaded. It's all over-baked. The "icing's just wrong" says Paul to Ruby's retreating back.
We all know already who is going to have the best looking cake. But what about the taste?
Ten minutes and the string quartet is keeping things rather calm. Usually but this time they're on their feet, plucking like workers in a chicken factory working on a bonus system for number of feathers plucked. And that's it! They've finished. Everyone cries and hugs.
Kimberley's had a stamp pre-made! Surely this can't be allowed. I demand she paints it all on by hand. Only 30 minutes left. Frances can't look around the tent lest she sees the others doing better than her. It's "race day" she says through gritted teeth. She suddenly wants this and she's not hiding it any more.
The judges mutter about Ruby's inexperience with doweling. Presumably it's used to keep the big tall cake standing up straight when it's assembled. Don't wedding cakes usually have each tier on a plynth? They're all piling cake upon cake with no daylight in between.
I've only just noticed Mel's special plaits for the final. She looks like a lovely Danish pastry.
Howard! He wants Frances to win but Glenn wants it to be Ruby.
Outside the tent, the usual garden party is in full swing. And it's time to see the former contestants. Lovely Glenn! Where is Rob? I want to see Rob.
Kim just allowed herself a small "boom" there as one bit of cake fitted neatly into another. Smug smuggy smuggins.
Ruby's passion fruit curd is filling her top layer. There is literally nothing you can type in this blog that doesn't sound disgusting. Ruby thinks marriage is an exercise in narcissism. What a cheery soul she is. If a boy ever proposes to her she'll probably tell him to go to Specsavers because she's really not that pretty anyway and marriage is stupid and she's got to go because she's got some Smiths albums to listen to, alone her in her small, sad kitchen.
Kim is making the bottom tier cake in her boyfriend's favourite flavour. Come on, chap. She's 30 now. Take the hint.
Kim's balls are getting covered in chocolate cake mix and disappearing into the oven. Ruby is confused about timings so is going to wing it. But it's Ruby so this is either a lie or it will inadvertently work out perfectly.
Kimberley's got her cake pops mould out again. That's twice in two weeks. All right, Kim, we get it. You have a Lakeland catalogue and a debit card. You don't have to show off about it.
Ruby is making an informal wedding cake. It's what she'd like if she got married. Is it an effigy of a sad girl looking defeated made out of pistachio sponge and marzipan? I think the final showstopper challenge actually should be to make a depiction of your inner landscape in any baking medium you wish. That would be revealing wouldn't it?
The showstopper
It's a three-tiered wedding cake. Such possibilities! These should be spectacular, flamboyant and extra points for a little sugar Paul and Mary on the top.
Ruby has stood herself in excellent stead with that perfect picnic pastry performance. Kimberley is a bit wobbly but redeemed herself with the pretzels. Do you get the feeling they're trying to keep things interesting by not letting any of them take a clear lead? Because I do.
Kim basically wins because her's were least unlike a pretzel. Good going, Kim. Everyone feels as though they're still in with a chance. But I've already seen their showstoppers. I'm saying nothing.
Technical challenge result
Paul says Ruby's don't have much snap. Mary likes her sweet pretzels. Frances' look more like a roll. They need more salt. Her sweet ones look nice but Paul says they're not pretzels. Kim's are really crisp and look good. "A good bake," declares Mary because she hasn't said that for a few episodes. Who is the winner? Frances comes third! Ruby is second and Kim is first!
Kim's look better than most but none of them really look like the thing I remember Sarah Jessica Parker eating in that episode of Sex and the City. Ruby no longer cares how they look because she's given up. For a change. OK, challenge over. Who has done the least worst?
Once out of the hot water, the pretzels go in the over while the bakers make glazes to go on the top. Is anyone else finding pretzels a bit of a boring choice for the final? They look like the turds of an animal who has been eating whole peppercorns.
I assumed they were deep-fried but they're actually boiled in a water and soda bic solution. Ruby's have ballooned and come out looking like bits of the Stay Puft man from Ghostbusters. Not appetising.
I'd just get distracted after a couple of goes and start making coil pots.
Ruby can't remember what a pretzel looks like. To be honest, I'd get it wrong too. It's like trying to draw an ampersand. Or a treble clef. You forget which end to start.
Kim's kneading action is extremely energetic. She's almost out of breath and seems to be taking out her fury at mucking up the earlier challenge on the poor old dough. Somewhere in a field a mummy pig is howling that her baby pig dies in vain because her pie was crap.
I've never seen the point of pretzels. Of course they became famous when one nearly killed George W Bush that time. But since then they've barely made a dent on my world.
They all look confused like they've never seen a pretzel before. "What makes a pretzel?" moans Ruby. People in New York? Paul says the crumb structure must be tight. Get the shape right and don't under-bake it, he adds. He wants crispy bagels and he wants them now. Well, in a minute.
Technical challenge
And it's one of Paul's recipes. The challenge is six savoury and six sweet pretzels. Glossy like a dog's coat, says Sue.
Kim is alone with her thoughts among the buttercups but the other two are quite happy.
Holy mother, look at Ruby's lattice work. As they cut into it, the layers are completely perfect, beautiful colours and utterly delicious. Even though there's no dead animals in there. Paul tells her that she's done well and she's delighted to be compared to Frances.
Paul scowls at Kim's wonky pastry tomb to the dead pig. It crumbles rather. Paul likes the look of the deceased porcine creature within. Mary likes the mousse and so on but the outside was a let-down. Nice corpse, shame about the tomb.
Judgement time for the picnic challenge
Frances' pie is deemed 'very heavy'. Paul opens that sucker up to reveal Frances' neat layers. Her walls weren't entirely stabilised but the filling is fantastic says Paul. It's almost perfect but not quite.
Ruby doesn't know what to do with her un-soggy, practically perfect pie. She's so confused. It's gone....well? Tape spools from her ears as sparks fly from her open mouth. Finishing touches are made but Kimberley is having a mare. Those naughty piggies aren't playing nicely.
Five minutes to go on the picnic challenge. Don't forget to shake your cans of Vimto before placing them on the picnic rug so either Mary or Paul gets a surprise when they open it.
It's all a bit too calm. Perhaps now would be a good time to introduce a marching band playing the floral dance over and over again as they march round and round the tent, occasionally taking a shortcut through the middle.
Mary is being extremely naught in stealing Frances' leftovers. It's not like she's not going to get fed in a minute. I expect more from the floury maven.
Bring in the squadron of wasps! I just don't think there's enough jeopardy in baking alone. What about flying ants?
A nice detail from Mel there - all of the Kim's ingredients are going in raw. That's raw pig pie. Who wants some?
She is rolling green stripes into her pastry while Mel teases her about her chances of winning. Kim is unphased and chucks some more pig in the blender. Is that a little snout whizzing around in there?
Kimberley has been juggling her psychologist duties with coursework essays and laughing prettily by the river with her boyfriend. She doesn't get a moment for herself.
Kimberley is doing three kinds of pastry. The main difference appears to be the colours. She calls her dish, "Chicken and pig pie". I don't think the use of pig there, is necessarily helpful. Will it oink when they bite into it?
Frances says she's "hit some hurdles" along the way. Don't try to give yourself a narrative arch now, Frances. It's too late for that. Ruby is dooming about the fact that her picnic pie is similar to Frances' and she's the "design queen".
Ruby's been preparing for the final at her folks' house in Southend. I need to see Ruby's dad because her mum does not physically resemble her in any way. Ruby, who looks like she's escaped from a pre-Raphaelite painting, must be about 17 feet tall. She's thinking her pie doesn't look very good. That's right Ruby, give it a chance.
And now for the X Factor-style contestant back-stories. As a girl Frances resembled a young Jacqueline Du Pre.
I didn't have time to bake but I have got a table strew with shop-bought treats and a dab of flour on my nose for authenticity. Frances' pie is going to be a rainbow of trout and rice and things. Imagine that. It would probably even look nice if you drank too many Pimms and threw it up again afterwards.
First challenge
It's a savoury picnic pie. I'm thinking a lattice-top brick filled with meat and pickles. That'd do me. Hollywood wants to see their use of pastry again so he can chuck around his soggy bottoms.
And we all know Frances needs to focus on the FLAVOUR but not forget the STYLE but that should be style in small letters because we don't want too much style.
Kimberley has been sure and steady (and a bit smug) and she owes her success to a vast technical knowledge and her Japanese self help books. "Crush the opposition is her internal mantra." Crush them, Kim, like under-baked meringues.
I would like Mel leaning in with her "Get a grip" as a gif on my desk top for whenever I need a dose of REAL. Ruby is the wildcard, we're told. She feels sick. Her strategy is to not have an episode.
Anyway, this is it. Kimberley. Frances. Ruby. Who is going to win and will it be because they're the best at cooking or will it be for some awful, cynical TV reason like they look good on the front of ALL the papers today?
It's the final. I made it with seconds to spare. Let's bake like our lives depended on it. And we start with a balloon fart gag. Entirely appropriate. While they recap I'll tell you why I'm late. It's do with a late train, the police and an exploding bathroom. Make of that what you will.
No buns I'm afraid. But I'm here!
Hello all, Rebecca here with brief pre-Bake Off greetings – Julia is on a train and on her way and will be on full liveblogging duties asap. No word on whether she's attempted chelsea buns again, mind you.

The Mondegreens is a rock group based in Seattle, WA churning out introspective indie music. Injecting a healthy amount of pop influence and classic melodic sensibility for a refreshing take on guitar-driven rock, they feature pining lyrics and cutting turn of phrase. With an infectious, harmony-driven sound that combines the raw passion of Elliot Smith with the diverse soundscapes of Grizzly Bear, their sought-after live shows can "run from dusty, shambling Americana to bright and modern in a single set". Before nestling into the Pacific Northwest in 2015, The Mondegreens spent three years forging solid bonds with audiences, playing shows that ranged the entire West Coast, and as far as Austin, TX; Denver, CO; Salt Lake City, UT; and Glacier, MT.
California valley natives, Jack Knight (guitar/vocals), Russell Rabut (guitar/vocals), and David Friedlander (bass/vocals), began collaborating in 2007, coming together around roots music, vocal harmony, and songwriting. Scotty Jenkins (percussion) was recruited prior to their 2015 tour to Austin's SXSW, completing their current lineup. As at ease at an intimate house concert as they are on a festival stage, The Mondegreens continue to capture the attention of audiences of all ages and lifestyles.

By DAN KARELL
On the heels of winning a Gold Cup title with the U.S. Men's National Team, Michael Orozco's good week continued on Tuesday.
The first thing that the Mexican-American centerback did upon return to Puebla FC was to sign his new contract with the club, one that will permanently keep him at the club. Orozco first joined Puebla last January on a six-month loan deal from San Luis, but Puebla, who also have USMNT defender DaMarcus Beasley on the roster, made the transfer a permanent one this past June.
"I want to succeed here, because you get the benefits of being in the squad and we want to achieve a title that this city deserves," Orozco said on Puebla's website.
Orozco arrived at Puebla's training ground on Tuesday morning, with Beasley coming in for the evening session. The two could be available for Puebla's next match on Wednesday against Santos Laguna.
At the Gold Cup, the 27-year-old defender featured four times, three times as a starter and once off the bench for the USMNT. Orozco started all three group stage matches against Belize, Cuba, and Costa Rica, but was replace in the starting eleven by Matt Besler in the knockout rounds.
Orozco came up with San Luis in 2006 after moving to Mexico from California. He also spent the 2010 season on-loan with the Philadelphia Union in Major League Soccer.
What do you think of this news? Do you see Orozco starting for Puebla? What does this move do for Orozco's World Cup chances?
Share your thoughts below.
Great news, he needs to keep playing. Orozco is a quality defender and he showed this during the Gold Cup.
Josh D
Good for him. He deserves it. Philly should have kept him!
Mike in Missouri
Will provide some good depth at the WC
good to hear. really hoping he has a great season.
