ICICI Bank's planned $4.3 billion(Rs17,630 crore) domestic and international stock offering won't be as large as China Citic Bank's April sale of $5.4 billion of securities. The banks are of similar size and their deals' pricing, comparable.
However, ICICI is India's second largest bank, whereas China Citic is only the eighth largest bank in China. That, combined with China's bad debt problem, makes the Indian investment a smarter choice.
ICICI has $79 billion total assets compared with $85 billion for Citic. Both banks have large affiliates carrying out brokerage and insurance, not directly owned by the banks themselves. Their stock ratings are also similar—at 27 times forecast earnings and 3.8 times book value for ICICI compared with Citic's 32 times forecast earnings and 2.5 times book value.
Citic is currently more profitable, and has a larger capital base in terms of its total assets. That can be regarded either way; one can argue that ICICI has more room to eliminate inefficiencies or that Citic has more room to grow.
However, the two market positions are very different.
Citic is predominantly state-owned and only the eighth largest bank in China. It faces severe competition from banks such as Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, eight times its size.
Moreover, even though it operates in China's most market-friendly region, it is unlikely to have escaped the overhang of bad loans in the Chinese banking system. That was estimated at $911 billion, about 30% of total loans, by Ernst and Young in May 2006, and may have grown since.
Citic's own non-performing loans were 2.7% of loans in 2006, but that would not include loans that were being rolled over. A liquidity crisis in China could thus cause a banking system collapse.
ICICI is a private sector bank, the largest in India, where only State Bank of India is larger. Its non-performing loans ratio is 1.4%, and there seems no reason to suppose any great probability of a systemic collapse. Thus, ICICI's upside potential as India grows appears greater than Citic's and its downside risk much less.

Another week has passed and I've done bugger all. I did go to the beach on Tuesday, but that has little significance on my work. Or lack there of. I haven't posted since I haven't really had anything to say or talk about other than the normal, and that is so boring.
So what did I do besides go to the beach on Tuesday? Read fanfiction. Go to the Apple store while Steph got her computer. I think I ran twice? (My back has been really sore, so I've been trying to go easy.) I did laundry. I napped. I watched Dallas. I listened to the Maccabees over and over. (Thanks for that, BC.)
Watching Dallas as an adult now, not as 10 year old me, is a bit enlightening. First of all, why the hell was I "in love" with JR? Why did I choose to emulate Sue Ellen? I really did. I would dress in my nicest skirts and tops and a ginger ale bottle filled with water pretending it was vodka. And I wondered why my peers thought I was a freak!
So let's hope this week is better for me overall.

Check out the new Seattle Mind Camp YouTube channel
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Sessions, Announcements
We just created a Seattle Mind Camp YouTube channel, and have started uploading a bunch of content from previous Mind Camp events. You'll find recaps of a couple of past events, clips of interesting happenings, as well as a bunch of great sessions, posted in their entirety. We will continue pushing out great content from Seattle Mind Camp events, and we'll have a bunch of great content coming out of Mind Camp 6.0, which is now just two weeks away. If you haven't already, be sure to pick up your tickets!
Video Spoof: Things that Happen at Mind Camp
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Activities, Aftermath
During Mind Camp 5.0, one of my favorite couples, Monica Guzman and Jason Preston, led the charge to create a quick spoof mockumentary showing what exactly goes on during a Seattle Mind Camp event. I think they nailed it - fairly realistic. Definitely worth watching!
Session Organizer Candidate Form
Posted by Stuart Maxwell Categories: Announcements
Get 'em while they're hot! The Seattle Mind Camp 3.0 Session Candidate Organizer Forms are here! If you're planning on organizing a session this weekend, be sure to download the form, fill it out, and bring it with you to Mind Camp. And, if you haven't already, please read over the new session selection process.
Session Selection Process for Seattle Mind Camp
Posted by Stuart Maxwell Categories: Sessions, Announcements
Note: Some of you may have read this already when I posted it to the Seattle Mind Camp mailing list. I wanted to repeat it here, in case there's anyone who's not on that list yet.
We've tried to address some of the challenges of the previous method of having everyone sign up on the Session Grid at once, while retaining the spontaneity and egalitarian nature of that process. We hope this new process will have the benefit of, among other things, helping us to assign rooms of appropriate size to the more popular sessions, and to otherwise manage resources more efficiently.
For the impatient, here's the quick bottom line: keep an eye on your email for the release of the Session Organizer Candidate Form. You'll want to download that and bring it with you on the morning of Mind Camp, so that you can submit your session for consideration BEFORE opening remarks. Sessions will be selected by a combination of popular vote and lottery; rooms and times will be assigned by the Planning Committee.

OpoSoft Video Editor
Oposoft Video Editor is a simple application that lets you cut, split, and join video files. It's not exactly a video editor as it doesn't let you modify the content of the video in any way, such as cropping it, rotating it or changing the color and other display parameters. Instead, it lets you manage the video files in three simple ways: cut segments from them, split them into smaller pieces, or join multiple videos into larger files. Anyway, there are some undeniable advantages offered by this tool. One of them is the simple, easy-to-use and intuitive interface that allows even beginners to use it without any problem. The other is the fact that it supports a lot of video file formats and it allows converting the processed videos to other formats. For example, you can join multiple AVI video files and export the resulting video to a MP4 file. Unfortunately, this change cannot be applied when cutting or splitting video files. The output segments will have the same format as the input file.
When joining multiple videos into one single larger file, Oposoft Video Editor also lets you tweak various parameters of the output file, such as the screen resolution, quality level, bit rate, frame rate, etc.
To sum it all up, Oposoft Video Editor is pretty handy especially when it comes to video joining. Unfortunately, it lacks quite a lot of basic features, as well as any advanced video editing function, therefore its price looks a bit high to me.
Review summary
- Simple and easy-to-use.
- Includes a video preview panel.
- Supports loading many video file formats
- Pricey.
- Doesn't allow converting the format of the output videos when they are produced by video splitting or cutting.
- Lacks advanced editing functions.
- The interface cannot be resized or customized

So, who all here has heard of the news with the Western Kentucky Icestorm, and the other states [what is it...Kentucky, Illinois...I dunno]. Anywho, anyone here been in that but regained power? I have yet to regain power, but my dads boss regained power just this morning, so he let my family borrow his 7000W, plus letting us go shower at his house and store perishables that survived until we regain power.
I haven't showered since Sunday. So...just about a week. -_-;; Generators are very noisy. The computer gets to stay on for another 30 or so minutes for me to alert my friends and communities about my condition of survival. If anyone actually cares.
Oh, supposedly Obama was/is planning to send Federal Troops over. I guess we can debate about that?
Dad's calling time on the generator for the computer, so I'll check back in several days, or maybe tomorrow. Power is estimated to come back on in about 20~30 days. Good bye.

PdfMeNot: Awesome New Tool From Makers of BugMeNot
Whether or not you're a fan of the great website registration bypassing service BugMeNot, I think you're really going to like a new service from the same shop called PdfMeNot. (username: stateless password: systems until Thursday) It creates a Flash display of any PDF document! No need to download the document and launch another application to view it anymore – PdfMeNot lets you convert PDFs by upload, URL, bookmarklet or a script entered into a website's page if you're the publisher.
I've added the bookmarklet to my browser toolbar and may never download another PDF again.
Unless I want to search inside it, keep it for my records or read it on my phone – but you get the idea, publishers push PDFs more often than they need to.
Here's a quick way you can try it out: Go to the tools page, drag the javascript bookmarklet to your toolbar, then go to this Creative Commons page where there's a link to a press release from yesterday in PDF format. Click on your bookmarklet, then click the PDF link. Voilà! I love it!
See also Issuu, which is more complicated and does other things, but also works magic with PDF files.

A Wizarding Birthday
So how does that work?
Alright, get this.
We all dressed like Wizards. To the people that were saying they had no wizard cloths, I asked them to just dress like wizards dressing like muggles.(miss matched cloths, ect.)
I bought cheap house rings on Amazon. When everyone arrived, I had them pull a ring from the sorting hat. On the center table, I had 4 glass bowls setup. Each time you completed a beer or a house colored Jello shot(house potion) you put a gem in the corresponding cup.
We had random games, and the winning house would get bonus points awarded to their house. This caused a lot of peer pressure between the houses to really get to drinking.
On top of that, we were playing wizard staff with house colored duct tape. To play wizard staff, you drink a beer. When you get your next beer, you tape it on top of your empty beer to drink. This starts to create a giant staff as the night goes on. Whoever has the largest staff, is the Head Master, and can pretty much order the other wizards around. The longer the staff, the stronger the wizard. After a set time, we awarded the house with the Head Master Bonus points, then counted the points for the house cup.
We still have the bowl of gems and house cup on display on the book case in the living room.
Many people who weren't fans left fans. It is pretty cool because you can still do trivia or beer pong, but just make it a house competition instead of individual.
something else we did was wizard chess with shots. That gets crazy quick.
also...watch out for the Slytherin folks. They tried to cheat by over loading their jar.
If you live near a Hobby Lobby, they have the gems and cups for super cheap. I picked things that kinda fit into the wizarding look, because I planned on displaying them as a memento after the party. All of the friends that attended still talk about the party, and admire the little shrine we have on display.
As far as games, we kept them to a minimal because there were about 20 people, so it was hard to coordinate.
We had wizard duels for wizards that were at least 4th year "4 beers drank and taped into a staff." The way the duel worked was after 4 beers you could challenge another 4th year or higher to a shot gunning contest. Whoever finished first received 2 points for their house. Those beers were not added to the staff, but they still helped your house. You could make the duels worth however much you wanted.
You could combine wizard chess, wizard dueling, trivia and any other drinking game into a wizard tournament of sorts for a set amount of points.
The points would depend on how many people you would have over. My group was kinda wild, and didn't really need any games to loosen them up. They came in, got sorted and instantly started talking trash to the other houses. People wanted to get an early lead, so they started with Jello shots. 1 point per shot or beer.
So with that being said...it was a 21st birthday with a lot of different people coming together to partake in adult drinks. Everyone was very open to just experiencing the night. I didn't let anyone know what to expect beyond we will be wizarding out. It worked out well because no one cried about not getting their "choice" house, or not being in the same house as their friend. I made it clear the sorting hat was the final word in their house assignment. I was paired with a house full of people I had never met, but the common bond of "Ravenclaw" made it about us vs them. My housemates are still my friend now.
never the less...just make sure everyone is safe, and don't let anyone disapparate home drunk.

After looking at so many houses with amazing exteriors, let us now focus our eyes on those that are beautiful on the inside. Do you think they are aesthetically pleasing AND / OR functional?
House T, Tokyo
Don't be fooled by its appearance, this deceptively simple-looking house has a really cool design concept.
Completed in 2012 by Hiroyuki Shinozaki Architects, house T is like a gigantic bookshelf, connected by countless ladders and staircases.
The interior is spacious and each "shelf" serves a different function. However, this house isn't very child-friendly or energy conserving. Imagine having to climb so many ladders in a day! (The good thing is that you will definitely lose weight!)
Photographs by Hiroyasu Sakaguchi.
Ant-house, Shizuoka
Intrigued by the name? This cuboid home designed by mA-style Architects is dark on the outside, but the interior is lined with yellow plywood.
Countless "windows" were carved out from the walls to allow light to fill the space within.
This seem to resemble an ant mount, where the outside may look ordinary, but the interior is spacious and filled with endless openings and paths.
Photographs by Kai Nakamura.
Tsubomi House, Tokyo
Conceptualized by Flat House, this tiny but compact house is split into 7 levels. Occupying only 26 square metres, it even has room for a small biscuit shop on ground level!
A main staircase connects to all the levels, while the lack of partitioning opens up each room so as to feel less constricted.
Each of the plywood piece is cut into a parallelogram and arranged in a herringbone fashion to enhance the 3D feel.
Photographs by Takumi Ota.
How would you have designed your house?

Company Background
BW May & Son was founded in 1960 by Bert May and his son Len May. They were later joined by Bill Chapell, (Carpentry & Joinery) & Terry Upton (Brickwork) to form BW May & Son Limited in 1971. The idea of joining together was that they could draw on each others pool of skilled operatives to deliver a more effective business within the housing sector.
Following the initial consortium in 1971, there were a number of shareholder changes, but most significantly was the buy in from the current Managing Director, Andrew Spice in 1988, who was the nephew of the original owner Bill Chapell.
|William Chapell 1952
Andrew Spice has been instrumental with the company's progression over the past two decades, which boasts its own joinery workshop and has approximately 100 employees'.
BW May have many staff from a variety of trades providing knowledge and services in specific areas, with the ultimate objective of providing an internally delivered service wherever possible. A construction project which involves a number of building trades is normally delivered through sub-contracting; therefore the BW May method of delivering from within is a unique situation in the construction industry.
The company can undertake project's up to the value of £2,000,000 and manages the different levels of work by operating a Small Works and Main Contract departments.
BW May's main strength is the number of directly employed; this enables better control and speedy mobilisation on projects, which results in an improved quality of service and product.
Having directly employed operatives is also very attractive to a number of BW May key clients who have rigorous employee vetting processes.
BW May has become one of the most recognised regional contractors in Swale and are currently based in Bobbing near Sittingbourne. The company location is ideally suited to cover a large operating area.
With the success and continued growth achieved over the past decade, BW May existing customer relationships have developed and resulted in larger and prestige projects being delivered.
The building industry is changing at a fast rate and at B.W May, we are committed in embracing positive change, so that we can continue to deliver and meet our customer expectations.

At the age of 30, hormones start to fall by 1 to 3% every year. According to this calculations, 20 to 40% falls at the age of 50.
The hormonal decrease in every person's testosterone is followed by several signs namely increase in weight and loss of sex drive. This happens when estrogens increase.
By estrogen hormone, problem like heart diseases, osteoporosis, Alzheimer and incontinence are protected. Skin tone, libido, function of senses and digestion are also improved.
Testosterone is responsible to increase the energy level and libido. It also helps in enhancing the bones' strength to increase the muscles, brain performance, muscle tone and heart health. When an individual has low testosterone, so is energy level.
As the age of the person increases, the HGH decreases gradually. Changes includes loss of hair pigments, CVD, high level of fats, osteoporosis, wrinkles, low energy level, sexual dysfunction and the life expectancy is lowered.
There are different symptoms which are more likely observed after several years. The level of hormones get incontestable by which different other symptoms occur like loss of libido, decline of energy, decreased lean muscles, increased body fats, weakened bones, reduction in skin elasticity, memory lapses, cardiovascular diseases, irritability, and mood swings.
We got a vast experience for 25 years and people give many good remarks as they feel good and their life style is also changed.

Some more butterflies - before they are gone for winter. FZ200

Beautiful -- are they butterflies or moths?
In reply to Sonyshine • Sep 13, 2013
The San Diego Zoo said one can distinguish butterflies from moths because their resting stance is wings upright and pinched together, not spread out like these photos are. Yet, Wikipedia says butterfly attennae have balls at end and are more colorful, which these photos certainly are.
Anyone know how to tell for sure?
Wonderful shots. I wish my FZ200 would take photos like yours, lol.

Very nice scented oil, light and easy to use.

Some body oils smell synthetic or over perfumed. This smells delicious, particularly the Lavender. It's very soothing and helps me got to sleep when I put it on my hair overnight when it's very dry. On my body, the oil has kept my skin in condition while I lost over five and a half stone. You'd never know I have dry skin. :o)

I think I have found the source of all my carb. problems, with the Edlebrock and stock carb. the stock filter tower thingy inside the tank has turned into a crusty, flaky mess. the filter material is crunchy and most of it is missing, and most likely passed through my engine, and there is hard green salt looking stuff filling up most of the the filter tube and the inside of the valve body.
the main gasket that the handle slides on and seals between Off, on and res. looks like black rubber but its hard and crusty around the openings too.
If you have been plagued with sticking float valves like me, you might wanna check your fuel filter too.

Annie (AKA Hey Terra!) has been around long enough to have experienced a lot of what Life can dish out. But, it hasn't been so long that she's forgotten what it's like to be your age. Check out some of the thousands of email questions teens from around the world have sent to Terra. You may learn something useful from her answers:
"What can I do to help my family?"
Hey Terra,I'm having trouble with my parents. It feels like the family is falling apart and I wanna get it back together. What can I do to get things back in order??
Crashing and Burning
Dear Crashing and Burning,
I'm really sorry you're feeling like your family is "falling apart." That sounds like a very uncomfortable situation to be in the middle of. It also sounds like something that you can't fix all by yourself. A family is a unit. When one person has a problem, it's usually going to affect everyone and then, the next thing you know... the WHOLE family has a problem. The way to get a "falling apart" family "back together" is for the WHOLE family to 1) acknowledge that there's a problem and 2) work together to address the issues and make the needed changes (sometimes with outside help, like a counselor or a family therapist).
The first step would be for you to take a leadership role here and call a family meeting. Use this Family Meeting Plan from my website and get started talking about what's going on (from your perspective) and how you feel about it.
If the rest of the family isn't willing to talk about what's happening, then I suggest that you do one of the following: 1) reach out to a close and trusted family relative who doesn't live with you (grandparent, aunt/uncle, older cousin), 2) stop in and have a talk with your school counselor, or 3) call this Teen Help Line 1.800.999.9999
You need to be able to talk to someone who will listen to what you have to say.
I hope this helps!
In friendship,
Need some advice? Write to Terra. She'll give you a straight answer you can trust without any lectures.

DAYTON, Ohio – Brad Zunica and Marcus Greene Jr. launched early home runs Sunday night, and Reggie Lawson pitched five shutout innings to help the TinCaps stay alive in the Midwest League playoffs.
A 6-0 win over Dayton in Game 2 of the Eastern Division Championship Series forced a winner-take-all Game 3, which will also be played at the Dragons' Fifth Third Field on Monday night.
Zunica and Greene, hitting fourth and fifth, respectively, in Fort Wayne's order, connected on back-to-back pitches from Matt Blandino in the second inning. Handed a 2-0 lead, Lawson cruised.
The 20-year-old right-hander allowed four hits with five strikeouts. He threw 57 of 86 pitches for strikes.
Lawson's defense helped him escape a two-on, two-out jam in the fifth. Second baseman Justin Lopez made a nice diving stop on a sharply hit grounder to his left and threw to first to retire Bruce Yari.
Dayton manager Luis Bolivar removed Blandino, who gave up four hits, with one out in the third. Zunica had just drawn a bases-loaded walk off Blandino to make it 3-0.
Lucas Benenati entered and didn't fare much better. After Greene worked a bases-loaded walk for a 4-0 edge, Benenati hit a batter to force in another run.
The score remained 5-0 until Buddy Reed's ninth-inning RBI double.
Fort Wayne's bullpen was solid. Osvaldo Hernandez threw two scoreless innings with five strikeouts, Will Headean worked the eighth, and closer Hansel Rodriguez recorded the final three outs.
While the TinCaps had yet to announce a starter for Game 3, Andrew Jordan will take the mound for Dayton.

We stayed in a disabled site and couldn't tell the difference between it and the others, except maybe that it was close to the rest rooms. We had a pull-through site around a tree and we were in a 22' RV. The location is great for being close to the canyon and the facilities there. It's a wooded area and not hard to find. Campers have trees between them, in an open woodland. We arrived after the ranger office was closed and the campground was full, but we were able to find our reservation from the map left for us at the ranger station. - vroecker

Our stay in the park was wonderful. The park was easy to locate and very clean. While the sites are small and the notice of size limit of 30 feet is most accurate the sites are still very nice and comfortable. - Bank
Sep 2016 - $9.00
Absolutely wonderful campground. I have been all over Arizona and this was the best campground I have been too in this state. The grounds are maintained very well. Staff and People where friendly, it was so welcoming. The elk and other wildlife where uninhibited by humans. It was so uplifting to experience the connection with nature so up close without animals having any trepidation towards human life form. You could be in your campground and elk and mule deer would walk right through your campground. The birds (ravens) where typical thieves, you turn your back for a second with food on the table and they will be stealing it. I was eating my lunch and I had a squirrel jump up on the table with us and eat his little pine nuts while we were eating dinner. Just absolutely incredible interaction from Wildlife. If I had to give one concern, (it is not a complaint) but it was a bothersome situation for myself. I am disabled and was in a disabled campground (site 303) as well (which was awesome by the way very clean). My discontentment to the whole place was, that there is NO disabled shower stalls in the female showering area. I was told by moyfriend there was none in Male showering area either. So this could be a concern for other disabled people. All the stalls are "VERY" compact and not to have a disabled shower stall was a bit frustrating for me. - Miakoda

This is a lovely, well-shaded, extremely quiet campground. There are many tall pine trees, but we had no trouble navigating through the park with our 40' fifth wheel. There are no hookups available, but are plentiful water spigots and reasonable generator hours. Internet/ phone service was spotty at best with a little spotty wifi available at the market. Laundry facilities were clean and reasonable. Our site wasn't particularly level and was on the left side of the road, putting our living area on the road side. No worries as there was so much room allotted for the rest of the site. - KyKampers

First time we've stayed at the North Rim while camping. With school back in session, the park was very quiet and there seemed to be a lot of 1-2 night visitors (lots of turnover each day). The spaces needed lots of leveling, I used 4/5 lego blocks in Space 12 and was still a half bubble off. Although the CG is dog-friendly, this is one of the more restrictive NPS sites for pets. The round-trip walk to the lodge is about 3 miles. The flip side is we did a 9 mile hike up the Arizona Trail on Saturday and did not run across another person (the non-rim, non-canyon hikes are less popular). The restrooms were in very good condition; however, the air-powered hand dryers are very loud so avoid spots really close to them. Also we did not see the Hosts doing any maintenance for the sites. - BubbaChris

Dry camping only. Left pull-through site. Leaves little room for getting in and out of the RV. Had to shorten the awning extension. Spacious campground though. Nicely treed with picnic tables and fire pits. Site not overly level, leans left to right, along the hill line. Most sites in the cg are not level. Watch the dump station entrance. Very tight and curvy drive into the station. Nice walk to the Lodge along Transept Trail, about 1 1/2 miles. - The Mangonel

We originally had reservations at a NPS campground for our Grand Canyon visit. However, due to the hot weather, we decided we needed electricity to run the AC for our dog in our RV. Luckily, we were able to get 4 nights at Trailer Village only about 10 days before our arrival. The sites are fairly close together, but we were on the end of a row which gave us more privacy and a grassy area next to the RV. Bathrooms were close by and had hot water and electric outlets. There are no showers in Trailer Village, but there are pay showers in the other, nearby campground not too far away. We used our own shower. There is no WiFi in the campground, but we found great WiFi in the Park Headquarters building near the Shrine of the Ages shuttle stop. If the headquarters is closed, you can get the signal outside the door. The shuttles are a great way to get around. They're free, and drivers are very helpful. Trailer Village has cable TV, but we didn't use it. We would definitely stay here again. - Eldereaglewatchers

This park is really nice and really clean. Our only major issue was how unlevel the site itself was. We had to go 4 leveling blocks high on the left side just to get somewhat level. It's about a 1/2 a mile walk to the rim and visitors center. Right around the corner, and definitely walking distance, is a full grocery store, post office, bank, restaurant and bar. If you hike up the trail towards the Kaibab trail you can see some amazing views but be warned, there are no fences or guard rails in this part of the canyon. - O_CBarber

The longest pull through sites were no longer than 50' so we parked our truck about 30 yards away in the CG. Good water pressure. We were asked not to leave our sewer hose connected during our stay as critters like chewing on the hose. Weak Verizon signal, 1-2 bars max. A number of sites had shade so if you want satellite, request an open site. There is no grass for dogs so they will need to go in graveled and dirt covered woods. Our site was asphalt and was level. Easy in and out. There's free bus shuttles throughout the park with a stop by the CG entrance, very convenient. There is a good size grocery store with beer & wine and souvenirs, post office, bank, snack bar within walking distance. As mentioned, many rental RV's with novice RVers, but I enjoyed talking with a number of them. - amxpress

We were only able to get a spot at this popular no reservations Grand Canyon Campground by arriving at 8:30 AM, as campers were checking out. We paid our $12 by credit card, then our friendly camp host met us to place the 'OCCUPIED' sign up. Our pull-through 30' slot was level with some shade. The bathroom was usable, and had a sink washing station behind. We left our site for the day to explore the Park, driving the 25 miles West to see the Village and Market areas. We really liked the vibe at Desert View better; it is much quieter than GC Village, without the bus waves of tourists anxiously rushing to Mather Point for their first look at the Canyon. Yet, at Desert View there is a good sized General Store, Trading Post and Cafe, as well as a Chevron with both Gas and Diesel products. And the views from Desert Tower are fascinating. - Llando88

Like all NPS parks, this one is 'dry camping'. Water hydrants strategically placed in park. Length limit of 30' on RV, no big rigs in here. First come first serve, park fills up fast. We were in Spot 42 (?) with good view of desert. Crowded but some spaces on the outside of the loop have privacy. Some people have no concept of 'quiet hours'.... rental rvs and generators...... ugh! we would camp here again - Jim Lee
Sep 2012 - $12.00
This is a National Park Service campground. There are NO hookups; it is boondocking at its finest. If you want to get away from the bedlam at the Grand Canyon Village area, this is the place. We stayed in site #22, in the back of the loop. Bring leveling boards or be prepared to use your leveling system if you have one. Absolute quiet, all you hear are the ravens and the wind. Short bike ride or walk to the canyon rim and the watch tower. No facilities at the campground other than restrooms and water spigots throughout the park. No dump station; you need to go to Mather campground (26 miles) to dump. If you love peace and quiet, this is your paradise; if you want hustle and bustle and hookups, go to Trailer Village. Not reservable; first come, first served, but we had no problem finding a site in September. We loved this place and will definitely return. - baraff

Located very close yet outside the bustle of Grand Canyon National Park, this primitive campground is perfect for those who enjoy boondocking. Access roads and sites are paved, and ours was a very long, spacious pull-thru. The Campground Host pleasantly reassigned us from site #18 which is terribly downhill to #23 which was reasonably level. There are no hookups, not even a spigot for refilling the RV fresh water tank or sewer dump (though both are supposedly available a few miles away in Tusayan. There is no WiFi, but the Verizon signal was adequate for 3G. We did not used the bathrooms, and there are no laundry facilities. The bargain price is net of $20 Senior Pass Discount and 9$ online transaction fee, and makes this park a great value, especially for a spot so close to the grandeur of the Grand Canyon. Needless to say, this park would have a much higher rating if it also has hookups and/or WiFI. - DaveInOhio

USFS campground just outside the South Rim had big pull through, spacious sites with forest views, and critters for the dog to spy (elk). Wild flowers were in bloom. The camp host was gracious and helpful and even posted a sign giving directions to free dry camping when the park filled. - Rocky 2

Nice park, sounds expensive but for the location is was a good value. Holiday Inn was $300 per night! They MUST get their electrician out there! I saw two plugs in the group camping area just sitting on the ground with wire wrapped in electrical tape! One even had no covers over the plugs. Showers had visible wires leading to the control head for the pay-as-you-scrub showers. - MigrantPharmWorkers

I only wish I had read the reviews before reserving. The spaces are un-even dirt, gravel, and weeds. The bathroom is dirty and they charge an additional $2 to take an eight minute shower. With all the beautiful trees in the area why would they not have some shade trees around the campsites? Helicopters flying overhead nearly nonstop during the daytime. This place needs some serious maintenance. I only have two positives: the WiFi was good and I only spent two nights here. - Parker897

Park is 25 miles south of Jacob's Lake and about 18 miles to the North Rim Lodge. Typical NFS campground. Host was very pleasant and helpful. A few of the sites are big enough for a large RV. We stayed in site 13 and I could of easily parked a 40 ft rig on that site. Some of sites are not very level and some sites are pretty small. We were there on the weekend and the campground was full by mid afternoon. Half the sites are can be reserved and the other half are first come first served. - DennisA

This is a US Forest Service campground that makes a nice alternative to the one campground inside the National Park at the North Rim. The campground is set in a lovely ponderosa pine and aspen forest and is about 5 miles from the park boundary. It's another 15-20 miles or so to the Visitor Center and Lodge located at the rim itself. The sites are very spacious and many are pull-throughs that can accommodate any size rig. There are no hook-ups, dump stations, showers or flush toilets, but the campground is pretty and peaceful. The vault toilets were spotless and practically odorless. The camp host was very friendly and conscientious about the upkeep of the campground. While it would have been nice to have stayed in the park, we weren't able to get reservations in time for our visit so DeMotte made a nice alternative. Our rate reflects the use of our Senior Access Pass. - BruceandKathyWA

Nicely maintained NFS campground, basic but pleasant. Rate based on senior discount. Camp host couple was friendly and effective. - SeeTheUSA

Couple pics of a recent cleanup.
Before and Afters
destroyed that crape myrtle
This is what I call "crepe murder." I didn't invent the term.
Crepe murder is bad for several reasons.
1. It turns beautiful trees into ugly stumps.
2. It prevents the formation of pretty, mottled bark on maturing trunks.
3. A forest of skinny, whip-like shoots sprouts from the end of each ugly stump. These whips are too weak to hold up the flowers, so the branches often bend to the ground, like a drunk who's about to lose his lunch.
Crepe's should be pruned in late winter, not late fall.
Learn how to spell "Retired".
Not much choice on that Crape. It is planted too close to the house so you have to keep it real stunted.
you can tell it was already murdered before, unfortunately thats all the commercial properties want done around here. It makes me cringe everytime we do them.
Tree Trimming Police................ http://www.theblaze.com/stories/nc-church-fined-4000-for-improper-tree-pruning/
Why do you have "retired 4 star general" in your thread title?
Good job. I agree with others that most crape myrtles should not be pruned.
Posted via Mobile Device
Looks brutal. Some of those shrubs will never be the same. I assume that is a japanese maple tucked in the corner. Why ever take so much off? It bothers me to see work like this.
Hahaha...ignorance of the law is No Excuse.

New School Year
We are all delighted that the children have started back to school so well after the summer break. They have settled quickly into their new classes. Our new Reception children are enjoying getting to know each other and our school.

Year 6 Production - The Amazing Adventures of Super Stan
Both of these performances were fantastic. The acting, dancing, singing (including some impressive solos) was top class. Everyone enjoyed the show - even though some of the jokes made you groan. Our Year 6 children have shown how talented they are and how much they have grown up. Their confidence shone through. Thank you to all of the staff for their hard work and to parents and friends of the school for coming to watch and support the children.
S Marriott (17th July)
Celebration of Learning Evening
Thank you to everyone who attended our special evening. The school looked amazing with all of the children's work on display. We were treated to performances by our Dance Club, the Year 4 Ukulele group and the Choir. The BBQ was popular as were the ice-creams. I would like to thank the staff and Governors for making the event possible.

The event will be an opportunity for you to see the amazing work
the children have produced from Reception classes to Year 6.

Year 1 Plant Sale: Year 1 classes held a Plant Sale after school in the school hall this afternoon. They have been growing lots of different plants for this event. The Sale was very successful and we will let you know how much was raised. Worle Lions Club kindly donated £200 to St Martin's, for Year 1 to purchase seeds and pots for this event. All profits raised from the Sale will go towards the sponsorship of a Guide Dog Puppy. Remaining unsold plants will be available to purchase at our Celebration of Learning Event on Tuesday 11th July - we look forward to seeing you there.

Year 4 Overnight Camp: On Tuesday 6th and Wednesday 7th June, 61 of our Year 4 children attended an overnight camp at Fernhill Farm. The event was a great success and the children enjoyed many different activities including: team building games; an assault course; a tour of the farm with farmer Andy; sat around the campfire and enjoyed hot chocolate with marshmallows and played wide games. They all had great fun sleeping in tents and enjoying the outdoors. Thank you to the staff who gave up their own time to take the children, also to both Matt, Mark and the rest of the team from Osprey for making the visit so enjoyable.
Maths Enrichment Day: On Tuesday St Martin's hosted a Maths Enrichment Day for a group of our Year 3 pupils who were joined by other local Primary Schools. All of the children enjoyed the day and were inspired and motivated to join in with all of the Maths activities throughout the day. Thank you to Pete Hall, Primary Consultant - 'Making Maths Fun!' who led the day.
Olivia 3M: "I really liked the day and had fun with the Maths challenges".
Madeleine 3E: "The day helped with my Maths – I loved playing the Maths games".

Collaboration Dance Festival
This afternoon we hosted a Dance Festival at which four of the six schools in our Kaleidoscope Collaboration each performed two dances to each other. Ashcombe, Hutton, Worle Village and of course St Martin's danced in a range of styles to different types of music. This was particularly special for our children because they did not get to perform their dance at the Playhouse a few weeks ago, due to it being evacuated because of a burst pipe. All schools were fantastic and the children were confident and enthusiastic.

Art Week
This week the children in KS2 have taken part in Art Week. The 4 year groups were split across the ten classes and each experienced a different type of Art. All the children explored the work of artists and then created their own work based on the work they were shown. The final pieces look great and will be displayed during our Celebration of Learning Evening on Tuesday 11th July (more
information to follow).

Google Expeditions
Today, we were visited by Lucy and Grieg, from Google who wowed us with 'Google Expeditions'.

This was a great day and our children really enjoyed the experience.

E-Safety 360 Quality Mark
On Friday 10th March, we were visited by an E-Safety Inspector. He reviewed all of our E-Safety curriculum, policies, systems and practice. He interviewed staff, children, parents and governors. I am delighted to say that after all of this, we successfully achieved the Quality Mark. Well done to everyone at school and particularly to Mr Ellis and Miss Jewell for their work in leading this area.
World Book Day
We have had a fantastic World Book Day, with lots of children dressing up as Where's Wally and other book characters. They enjoyed the competitions and other book related activities. It was also great that the staff joined in too. It was confusing with so many people dressed as Wally.

Year 3 Ancient Egypt Topic: The Year 3 children completed their Ancient Egypt Topic by holding an Ancient Egyptian Invention Exhibition in the School Hall. They created models, writing, hieroglyphics, persuasive videos and artwork as a culmination of a term of work on the civilization of Ancient Egypt. Visitors from across the St Martin's School Community were invited in to listen to children at the exhibition and browse the stalls before voting for their favourite stand, the winners of the stands receiving an exciting prize. Thank you to our parents/carers for such a good turn out.

Year 3 Book Launch
I was extremely impressed by our Year 3 children on Saturday when they held a book launch at Waterstones in Weston. The children were well behaved and were excited about the event. They even explained how they got their ideas and drafted their work to some members of the public. The staff at Waterstones were fantastic and really looked after us. A huge than you to the Year 3 Team for giving up their Saturday and making this possible.

Please visit our Library or ask your teacher for an entry form and be part of our 'Reading Resolution Challenge'. You could win a fabulous bookish prize!
End of Term 2
This has been a fantastic but busy few weeks. Everyone enjoyed the wonderful Christmas performances from Reception, Year 2, Year 3 and Year 4. The children sang, acted and performed readings confidently and enthusiastically. The children enjoyed their discos last night and they were treated to an amazing performance by staff today in our special Christmas assembly. All in all, we really celebrated Christmas in style. We would like to wish all of you a very merry Christmas.

Year 1 performed the first Christmas Productions at St Martin's today. Their acting, singing and reading of lines was wonderful. They looked great in their costumes too.
Well done.

Christmas Fair
Our Christmas Fair was a huge success on Friday. The hall was packed and there were lots of activities in the classrooms. Father Christmas was busy writing down those very important Christmas lists. It was fantastic to see so many children, parents and friends of the school getting into the Christmas spirit. The cake stall was certainly popular as a wide variety of cakes were bought up quickly. We are lucky at St Martin's to have received such support from parents, staff and children who worked so hard to make the event possible and such a success. So many items were donated and made for us to sell. I will let you know how much we managed to raise later this week.
