Ryan Chastain, a sophomore, finished third overall with a blistering 8-K time of 24:48 to lead the Lipscomb men to a fourth place team finish in the Evansville Invite Saturday.
Chastain's time was his fastest ever 8-K and the first time he has dropped below the 25-minute barrier. His time was also an astounding one minute and fourteen seconds faster than his time for this race last year.
"Ryan Chastain ran an amazing race," said Lipscomb head coach Bill Taylor. ".Each week he takes another step into that upper tier of collegiate runners. Jordan Wilson was again consistent, while the rest of the team really stepped it up. "
In 12th place, teammate Jordan Wilson posted his best 8-K time ever (25:54), 26 seconds faster than his time here last year.
In a season that has seen PR's every week, nine of Lipscomb's 11 men ran their fastest 8-K time ever Saturday.
Freshman Jeff Hoover covered the course in 26:38, sophomore Jared Carlson followed close behind in a time of 26:41 despite taking a fall late in the race and freshman Jonathan Williams rounded out the Lipscomb top five in a time of 26:57. Carlson's time was 25 seconds faster than his time on this course last year.
Clint Carter bettered his lifetime best in a time of 27:13, while freshmen Paul Wright and Ryan Bell rounded out the top eight in all time bests of 27:25 and 27:26. Andrew Shankles, usually a top four runner for the Bison, struggled late to a time of 27:35. While not his PR, it was still nearly a minute faster than his time on this course last year. Jacob Nelson ran a PR of 28:51 while battling an injury and Tim Cotton was the final finisher for Lipscomb in a time of 28:57.
The men ran without a top 3 runner, sophomore David Wolfe who has a leg injury.
"Each week we get better." said Taylor. "The guys really stepped it up as a team. They race smarter, they run faster and they get more aggressive each week. It's been a joy to watch.
"We've had so many PR's this season it's hard to keep up with it all. I know we will race very well at Conference."
The Bisons get next weekend off to prepare for the Atlantic Sun Conference Championships on Oct 27th. Lipscomb University is hosting the championships this year at the Vaughn's Gap course in Percy Warner Park.

September 8, 2004 marked the 500th anniversary of Michelangelo's David. one of art-history's greatest masterpieces. Crowds of visitors have been drawn to Florence to experience this magnificent sculpture over the past 500 years--and they continue to visit in record numbers. Why does a work of art created half a millennium ago possess such a timeless, universal appeal? What meaning does this 500-year-old sculpture hold for modern-day man?
To answer these questions, consider the significance of Michelangelo's David to the Renaissance Florentines who first revered it.
During the 1000 years preceding the Renaissance, the West had been mired in the medieval Christian worldview, which divided the universe into two spheres: a heavenly realm of perfection, happiness and truth, and this dark world of imperfection, misery and falsehood. Man, forever paying for his crime of Original Sin, was regarded as powerless and ignorant, with blind obedience to God and his earthly spokesmen as his only recourse.
As expressed by one of the leading Christians of the time, Saint Augustine. man is "crooked and sordid, bespotted and ulcerous." Consequently, man as depicted in medieval art is a deformed beast, wailing for the salvation of his soul. At best, the human ideal was represented as a bloody, beaten and crucified Jesus Christ; a man who resigned himself to his preordained fate: a violent, sacrificial death.
The Renaissance was the rebirth of man's life on earth. Freed from the shackles of authority, man's mind was viewed as able to understand the universe. Far from being a tortured soul trapped in a deformed bodily prison, man was regarded as rational, beautiful and heroic--worthy of happiness and capable of great achievement. Man, in the Renaissance view, need not bow down in passive resignation, praying for salvation. He can choose to undertake great challenges in the face of seemingly impossible odds; he can actively pursue success, fight for victory--even slay a giant.
Michelangelo's David is the best expression of this Renaissance sense of life. The sculpture was inspired by the story of the young shepherd boy who chose to fight a far stronger adversary in order to save his people from invasion. Wearing no armor, with a sling as his only weapon, David defeats Goliath using superior skill and courage.
Although there had been many earlier portrayals of David in art, Michelangelo's was revolutionary. The others depict David after the battle had been won--often standing on the severed head of a defeated Goliath. Michelangelo chose to show David not in victory, but at that point in time that prefigured victory: in that instance between conscious choice and conscious action, that moment when an individual makes a choice--and commits to act on that choice. David stands, with furrowed brow, looking over his left shoulder into the distance for Goliath. Michelangelo shows David not as a triumphant victor, but as a thinking, resolute being--the preconditions for victory.
The key to the David's appeal is Michelangelo's magnificent projection of man at his best--vigorously healthy, beautiful, rational, competent. It expresses a heroic view of man and of a universe auspicious to his success. Such a projection is of immeasurable worth to anyone who holds such a sense of life--whether that person lived 500 years ago or lives today.
Unfortunately, this kind of artistic projection has almost entirely been relegated to the past.
Today intellectuals once again view man as an ugly, corrupt being, trapped in an incomprehensible universe and not in control of his own destiny. Consequently, man and his values are not considered a serious subject for art by Modernists; "serious art" contains the defecations of an elephant or the rusty steel of a garbage dump.
Michelangelo's David thoroughly rejects both the Christian and Modernist conceptions of man. The David projects man as neither a monster nor a hapless victim, but as an efficacious and noble being. The David is the ultimate projection of heroic choice and heroic action.
What is the meaning of Michelangelo's David for modern-day man? The same as it was 500 years ago--the brilliant projection of the ideal.
Fields marked with * have to be filled.

Watch the Audi TDI clean diesel video here:
Audi has announced new additions to its diesel car lineup, which are expected to hit American shores in later Summer 2013. Joining the 2014 Audi A8 L TDI are the A6, A7, and Q5 TDI models-all designed for optimal fuel economy through clean diesel technology. The brand new Audi A3 sedan, available in 2014, will also be available as a TDI option.
All three additions are powered by the same 6-cylinder clean diesel engine with an eight-speed transmission that produces a claimed 240 hp plus 428 lb-ft of torque. The biggest performance difference between the three is the Q5's 0-60 time coming in a second slower than its smaller siblings at 6.5 seconds compared to the A6 and A7's 5.5 second time.
"Audi has been at the forefront of clean diesel since the introduction of Audi TDI technology in the U.S. in 2009," said Scott Keogh, President, Audi of America. "As drivers increasingly look for high fuel efficiency and low-emissions output, demand for diesel is on the rise. The introduction of the highly- efficient Audi A6, A7 and Q5 TDIs continue Audi's commitment to clean diesel technology and further the brand's focus on balanced performance solutions that improve efficiency and driving dynamics."
Starting at $57,500 the A6 TDI sedan has a claimed MPG of 24 city/ 38 highway/ 29 combined, the same as the A7 compliments of the 6-cylinder clean diesel engine with 8-speed Tiptronic(r) transmission and quattro(r) all-wheel drive . It starts with the Premium plus package, which is loaded with technology based features such as the MIMI navigation, Audi connect, Google Earth, Xenon headlights, parking assistance and more.
While the A7 also starts with the same Premium package, pricing is higher at $66,900. It is the first clean diesel five-door coupe. For those interested in more power, the RS 7 model will now be available in the U.S.
The bigger of the bunch Q5 compact luxury SUV for the first time will be available as a TDI option. It has the lessor fuel economy of the trio with 24 city/ 31 highway/ 27 combined. But it also has the smallest price tag at $46,500. Available in new metallic exterior colors of Maya Brown, Volcano Red, and Lava Gray, additionally other exterior features include aluminum roof rails and dramatic wheels. This all- wheel drive model offers room for five passengers while not leaving out luxuries such as full leather interior and optional technology options such as MIMI navigation and Audi connect.

Travel activities
This article is a travel topic
Many travelers seek out destinations that are particularly suited to specific activities, such as scuba diving or rock climbing. Some of these travel activities require specific gear, training, or planning to pursue, while others may be as simple as slipping into a warm spring to enjoy the soothing waters.

Leave-no-trace camping[edit]
Main article: Leave-no-trace camping.
Main article: Canyoning.
Geocaching [1] is a treasure-hunting game that involves the internet, GPS map co-ordinates and travel. Players report their treasure hunt activities on-line to gain credits for their finds. Many of the players place caches (treasures) in spots they are quite fond of. So hunting them down will quite often lead to exciting adventures in lesser known locations.
One object of the game is to carry treasure from one cache to the next. Some of the treasures have identification information, so their travels can be tracked on-line. To play the game you will need a GPS receiver (or a map and the orienteering skills to use it), the cache description (make a printout) and about 1 hour spare (more for a difficult cache).
Related to geocaching is the Degree Confluence Project where people contribute photographs of the planet at points of intersection of lines of longitude and latitude. Most of the easy ones are done - but if you are hearing way off the beaten track this may be for you.
Orienteering [2] is another popular outdoor sport. It involves using a map and terrain navigation skills to follow a course in the least time. The sport has an international following, world championships, and training programs, and takes place in beautiful and interesting locations. Orienteering meets hosted by the top clubs draw thousands of participants from around the world.
Destinations: New Mexico (near Santa Fe).
Closely related to orienteering are rogaining and adventure racing.
Main article: Golf.
Golf is a game that is variously considered a pastime, recreation, sport, profession, religion or an obsession. To some the game is more an opportunity for relaxation than sport, and many travelers roam the world looking for unique and famous golf courses on which to hone their skill.
Rock climbing[edit]
Main article: Rock climbing.
Main article: Running
Running is both an activity undertaken by casual joggers wanting to stay in shape during their travels, and also by those who seek out marathons and other competitions around the world. Recently travel companies have begun offering packages for those traveling abroad for races that focus on the specific needs of the runner.

Winter activities[edit]
Alpine skiing[edit]
Main article: Alpine skiing.
Alpine skiing, also known as downhill skiing, is a popular sport involving sliding down snow-covered terrain with skis attached to each foot. Ski resorts around the world attract millions of travelers yearly.
Snowkiting is "winter's newest extreme sport", requiring only the wind, a snowkite, skies or snowboard, and an attitude for fun. The sport has endless possibilities, such as backcountry skiing without a ski lift or resort - your snowkite will pull you uphill and downhill at varying speeds. Snowkites can accelerate up to 50 MPH. The lifting power of the wind will allow you to jump to distances of up to 100 feet.
When snowkiting in the backcountry be aware of avalanche danger! Always snowkite in groups, wear an avalanche beacon, dress warm, and never exceed your limits.
Snowkiting is popular in Central Utah, a region of the United States of America.
Snowmobiling is a sport involving riding over snow on a motorized vehicle. It is popular throughout the western United States of America as well as in Canada and Alaska.
Other activities[edit]
Main article: Agritourism.
Agritourism means travel organized around farming or animal husbandry. Visiting a working farm or ranch for the purpose of enjoyment and education are key parts of this often rural experience. Farmer's markets, wine tourism, cider houses and corn mazes all constitute examples of agritourism. Travelers who participate in this type of vacation frequently desire to see how food is grown and prepared or to learn how how animals are raised.
Birding or Birdwatching is an activity that is undertaken by both the hobbyist and the professional scientist.

Food Tourism[edit]
"Food Tourism" is the pursuit and enjoyment of unique and memorable food and drink experiences, both far and near. Food travelers experience different cultures through the food and drink of that culture. Whether in a destination far away or a local neighborhood, food and drink are expressions of that culture, its heritage and tradition. Food and drink are tools for communication, and food tourism promotes the understanding and appreciation of different cultures as expressed through food and drink.
Horseback riding[edit]
Hot air balloons[edit]
Destinations: Albuquerque, Marrakech, Goreme.
Learning languages abroad[edit]
Travelling to a foreign country both for leisure purposes and to study the local language can be an excellent way to deepen ones experience in a foreign culture and to combine leisure with learning. Although perhaps more common for people between the ages of 18 and 24, language tourism is undertaken by people of all ages and backgrounds. They tend to enroll in non-intensive foreign language courses that allow considerable free time in which to practice the language outside of class and travel extensively. Typical stays range from 2 to 5 weeks, and trips are often repeated in subsequent years.
Main article: Travel photography.
Quad bikes[edit]
Riding quad bikes (also known as ATVs--all-terrain vehicles) is a sport that involves riding on a small, rugged vehicle, usually in off-road areas. This activity is provided by commercial operators around the world:
Riding independently, quad bikers should consider possible damage to soil and plants, and thus check local regulations prior to embarking on a trip.
Normally, quad bikes are designed only for a single rider (although are frequenly rented for riding by two). There's only one model of quad bike that has is designed for two persons, and that model is quite rare in commercial rent.
Scuba diving[edit]
Main article: Scuba diving.
Scuba diving is a sport in which people breathing from tanks of compressed air explore underwater areas. It's most popular in areas with tropical coral reefs, but there are scuba diving sites in most areas of the world with water.
Wildlife watching[edit]

Wine tourism[edit]
Main article: Wine tourism.
Wine tourism means organizing travel around the appreciation of, tasting of, and purchase of wine. It is a kind of tourism highly developed in many regions around the world, and it can be as simple as hopping on a wine shuttle in Napa Valley or as complicated as renting a villa in the south of France for a month. Wine tourism is a great way to learn about the people, culture, heritage, and customs of an area. Some of the famous wine producing regions of the world have been producing wine for centuries or even millennia, and the production and consumption of wine is deeply ingrained in the local culture.
Zip Lining[edit]
Main article: Zip Lining.
Zip lining refers to an activity where participants (often referred to as "zippers"), are suspended from a pulley that moves across across a cable suspended between trees or man-made structures. The cables are mounted descending from a higher to lower point which propels the zipper purely by the use of gravity. The amount of incline as well as the weight of the zipper determines the speed at which the participant travels from point to point.
Zip line courses can be designed purely for speed (adrenaline rush), while others are designed to allow zippers to enjoy the natural surroundings such as forest, jungle or waterfalls (often referred to as canopy tours). While others employ elements of both.

Sony is making a change in its own summer lineup, shifting the comedy remake "Fun With Dick and Jane," starring Jim Carrey and Tea Leoni, to Dec. 21 from June 25.
"We were rushing to make the June 24 date," Sony vice chairman Jeff Blake said. "We felt our next best stop is the Christmas holiday, given how well broad comedies have performed recently over that period."
Most recently, the Dec. 22 release "Meet the Fockers" collected $70.5 million during its first five days, on the way to a $265.3 million (and counting) domestic gross.
On its new date, "Dick and Jane" will now go head-to-head with Universal's "The Producers" and Warner Bros. Pictures' "Rumor Has It," the Jennifer Aniston film that takes its inspiration from "The Graduate."

Do you have a significant other that makes you smile with your heart? Their looks may be laughable (and even unphotographable) yet they're your favorite work of art? Then you could call them "My Funny Valentine."
With lyrics close to those written above, the well known song, "My Funny Valentine," has become a staple for the day set aside to honor your favorite loved one. Written in 1937 by Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart for their musical, Babes in Arms, it is sung in the show by the female lead, Billie Smith, to her love interest, Valentine "Val" LaMar. She pokes gentle fun at some of his characteristics, but ultimately tells him not to change, because they are what gives him his charm. Just about everyone can relate to that set of circumstances. After all, love reigns supreme – especially on Valentine's Day!
If you would like to perform this wonderful song, there are many settings from which to choose. There are versions for vocal solo with piano, as well as arrangements for choir, jazz ensemble (with or without vocal solo), jazz combo, concert band and full or string orchestra. You can find these all on Stanton's website, or try our Digital Delivery option if there's no time to lose.

FORT COLLINS (AP) (September 9, 2000) -- East Tennessee State scored on a touchdown pass from Todd Wells to Corey Martin, but the Bucs lost at Colorado State, 41-7 on September 9th.
Cecil Sapp, making his first career start, ran for 119 yards and two touchdowns for Colorado State.
Rams linebacker Rick Crowell, playing his first game since having surgery to repair a torn rotator cuff, had seven tackles. He played in four games last year and gained another season of eligibility with a medical hardship waiver.
East Tennessee State, which averaged more than 9 yards per play last week against Liberty, was stymied by Crowell and Colorado State's defense.
Freshman receiver Tim Turner, who caught three passes for 145 yards and three touchdowns a week ago, had three catches for 40 yards.
After being held scoreless in the first quarter, Colorado State took control behind Sapp, backup running back Rahsaan Sanders and quarterback Matt Newton.
Sanders ran for 70 yards and a touchdown on nine carries, and Newton was 16-of-24 with one TD and one interception.
East Tennessee State was able to keep things close until Colorado State scored four times within a 10-minute span of the second quarter.
Sanders started the scoring with a 5-yard touchdown run, and Terrance Gibson's first career interception set up Newton's 3-yard TD pass to Frank Rice less then three minutes later.
East Tennessee State's next drive stalled inside Rams territory, and Sapp outran the Bucs' defense for a 54-yard score. Duan Ruff's 1-yard run capped the outburst with 1:05 remaining.

Blackstar Halo needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 357 designs submitted by 47 freelance designers.
Blackstar Halo - a finnish rock band - http://www.blackstarhalo.com
Blackstar Halo has just released new album "Illuminated". Band was formerly known as "Downfall" and now due to name change we need a new logo. The logo will be on backdrops, t-shirts, mugs, bandanas, beltbuckles, caps, hats, you name it. so the exposure will be great for the winning designer!
We tried doing to the logo via several artists but that did not lead to conclusion, now we are trying new approach and see if it is indeed possible to get ORIGINAL logo using new media!
Target audience is 12-25 year old music/heavy metal/rock enthusiasts. They like to draw the logo to their pencil holders and school-tables so it needs to be simple and yet it should have some simple "hooks" to make it original and easily recognizable.
We are not attracting death metal audience so the logo should not be arbitrary death metal tangle. Remember Kiss and Anthrax they kept it simple =)
We need:
-text logo as vector
-picture logo as vector
-combination of picture and text logo ->instruction below
-colored version of combined logo (optional)
-textlogo should work alone without the picture logo
-Text logo should be a original font, not copied from dafont.com or similar sites. HOWEVER, you CAN use some font as basis and make it your own, add some hooks, some original touch to make it stand out. You CAN draw the text logo by hand as well, any way you like it!
-Make it simple but add some hooks to make it recognizable so youngsters can draw it to their school tables easily =)
-Here are some examples of fonts that are logos itself
-we do NOT WANT:
-Celtic type
-round fonts
-Gothic medieval old book fonts
-pixel fonts
Picture Logo:
-picture logo should somehow incorporate "halo" and "star" objects.
-We have previously used our "three spike" logo that also should be incorporated to the logo somehow. it is not a must but it would be a good thing.(logo attached)
-picture logo is presented always alone, not above or below the text logo, except we need one design where the picture logo is between the words in band name "Blackstar (logo) Halo". like this -> http://www.steamrepublic.com/logot/…-sr-bw.png -> http://www.steamrepublic.com/logot/…mRepublic/

Much of the attention from Super Bowl XLVII Media Day yesterday was focused on Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis, but several other participants offered memorable quotes or quips. Here were some of the best:
Former Ravens coach Brian Billick on comparisons between the current team and his 2000 squad that won a Super Bowl: "They wouldn't score, I know that."
Ravens tight end Ed Dickson on the game's expected outcome: "We're here for one reason and one reason only, and that's to win. We have no distractions. Even Beyonce can't get us to lose this game. "
San Francisco 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh on if he's worried that his brother, John, the Ravens' coach, can read his mind: "No. Worried about a lot of things, but I have not noticed that he has any clairvoyant powers."
Lewis on learning that he had a torn triceps earlier this season: "The doctor looked at me and she told me I was out for the year. I said, 'Doc, are you sure?' I said, 'Doc, there's no way I'm going to be out for the year with just a torn triceps. I've been through way worse.' She was like, 'Ray, I know nobody has ever come back from this.' I said, 'You know, nobody has ever been Ray Lewis either.'"
Lewis on whether he has gotten "catfished" before: "I saw that show for the first time and I may have been "catfished" once or twice. I'd have to go way back into my days and think about it."
Ravens safety Ed Reed on how facing Washington Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III earlier this season will prepare his team for 49ers quarterback, Colin Kaepernick: "First off, we're on a better field. For all that money down in D.C., you'd think their field would be better. That field sucks. It does, it was all mud."
Reed on if there's anything wrong with having an imaginary girlfriend: "Yeah, you've got problems with that, man. That's crazy."
Ravens running back Ray Rice on his guilty pleasure during offseason: "Mom's cooking and more of Mom's cooking. ... To me, I might be a little guy, but I've got to keep my weight on so I can absorb some of these hits. I've got to be the hammer and not the nail."
Ravens wide receiver Torrey Smith on trash talking: "I don't talk much on the field. Anquan [Boldin] talks enough trash for both of us."
49ers offensive tackle Joe Staley on the media attention that his young quarterback, Colin Kaepernick, gets: "If he is the Beatles, I am just a garage band -- a bunch of 12-year-olds living the dream in the garage. I am out here busting my butt trying to give a good interview and he is just like, 'Hey, I'm Colin Kaepernick, everybody listen to what I have got to say.'"
Ravens linebacker Terrell Suggs on his vacation plans if his team wins the Super Bowl: "Ball So Hard University. I will go there first; go to my alma mater. Then I will go to Hogwarts. We stop at Hogwarts and then I will take my lovely family to the lost city of Atlantis."
Ravens offensive guard Marshal Yanda on quarterback Joe Flacco's relationship with his offensive line: "He takes us out to dinner, gave us a surround sound box to attach to our TV at Christmas. Will his gifts get bigger if he gets a new contract? They don't need to, they are fine as they are. Remember, even offensive linemen make decent money now."

Hurricane Sandy may seem like it was a long time ago, but some NYC neighborhoods are still struggling to get back on their feet. If you're looking for something to do this summer, why not take a staycation right here in the tri-state area that helps these areas while they continue to recover? We've rounded up 6 Sandy-affected NYC/NJ areas offering up scrumptious local food, waterfront views and off-the-beaten-path activities - check them all out and plan your mini vacay today!

While it doesn't have the most inviting of names, Red Hook is actually one of the most romantic and charming neighborhoods in Brooklyn. If you've been avoiding this nabe because of the perceived difficulty in getting there, the city has made things a lot easier for you by offering a ferry directly from Pier 11 in downtown Manhattan. Enjoy incredible views on the boatride, and when you get there, take a stroll around Louis Valentino, Jr. Park and Pier and then head to the Brooklyn Waterfront Artists Coalition (weekends only, 1-6pm) for free art showings, activities and, oftentimes, free wine! If you're feeling peckish, head over to the Red Hook Ballfields' famous streetfood gathering to find pupusas, plantains and ceviche or stop by Baked for some pumpkin whoopee pies, salty + sweet brownies or blondies. For more of a sit-down meal, Kevin's has been called one of the top brunch spots in the city, or you can splurge a bit (considering you saved so much on airfare and lodging) by booking a seat at the Brooklyn Fare Chef's Table, which is Brooklyn's only three Michelin-starred restaurant. End the day with a competitive game of 18-hole miniature golf or cornhole at Brooklyn Crab, and then relax with a cold brew on their breezy outdoor deck. Souvenirs for your friends can be found at Dry Dock Wine and Spirits (which offers free tastings) or Steve's Authentic Key Lime Pies.

Rockaway Beach made headlines for being one the areas most affected by Hurricane Sandy in NYC, but before that, it was known as a popular vacation retreat for New Yorkers. The best way to get there is to hop on the ferry from Pier 11, take the A train or ride the super-convenient Rockabus from Manhattan or Brooklyn for about $15 roundtrip. Once you're there, take a quick stroll along the boardwalk and hit the beach. For those looking for exhilaration over relaxation, Rockaway Jet Ski offers a fun experience zooming across the ocean waters. After you're done, treat yourself to a matcha green tea smoothie at Veggie Island or hit up Motorboat and the Big Banana for tacos, fresh fish burgers, grilled shrimp burgers, lobster rolls, crab rolls, pizza or wings. Then end the day with a yummy cocktail on the waterfront deck at Bungalow Bar.

Contrary to popular belief, there's much more to Staten Island than just landfills and Mob Wives. The Snug Harbor Botanical Garden and Historical Center is just a hop and skip away from the Staten Island Ferry Terminal, and offers a true escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. Or, if you prefer the sand, take the X1 bus down from Manhattan to one of the borough's beautiful beaches. At South Beach, enjoy a summer walk down the 835-ft-long Ocean Breeze Fishing Pier, and take full advantage of the playground, handball and shuffleboard courts and seasonal concession stands. Then head over to Midland Beach to cool off in Sea Turtle Fountain's sprinklers, and replenish some of your energy with some freshly baked canolis or pignolis at Royal Crown Bakery or sample one of over 100 flavors of authentic Italian ices at Larocca's. Then cap off the day with a pizza dinner and drinks at Lee's Tavern.

Looking to venture out of the five boroughs for your staycation? Seaside Heights, NJ is about an hour and a half away from NYC by car, and boasts beaches, boardwalks and more summer activities than you can shake a stick at. After laying on the sand for a bit, head over to Breakwater Beach water park for a fine selection of water slides or check out Casino Pier to ride family favorites like the Tilt-A-Whirl and the Hot Tamales Roller Coaster or venture through the Fun Houses. Don't forget to try out the many boardwalk delicacies like a cold and creamy Kohr's Frozen Custard, and end your day at Klee's Bar and Grill for a hearty meal of pub grub.
While it's true that South Street Seaport probably won't be hurting for tourists this summer season, it doesn't hurt to drop in and lend a hand by spending a few dollars in the area. SmorgasBar, the shipping container beer garden and food court that popped up on Fulton St., is packed with yummy bites and cold beverages, and this summer's SEE/CHANGE program has a line-up of free movies and concerts right next door. If you still haven't tried riding a Citi Bike, the Seaport is the perfect place to do it with a dedicated bike lane on Water Street, but be sure to abstain if you've had a few too many at Jeremy's Ale House.
Photo via Luna Park Facebook
Coney Island is one of New York City's most beloved summer destinations, and this year, the community needs the help of visitors more than ever. The beach and boardwalks are obviously a can't-miss attraction, and neighboorhood pizza joint Totonno's has been called "a mandatory pilgrimage for all devotees to the slice." You also won't want to skip Luna Park for all of the classic amusements (although we'd call ahead to make sure it's open in light of some recent structural issues). Show your support for the New York Aquarium, which just re-opened this spring after major Hurricane Sandy damage and make new friends with sea lions, otters and penguins. Before you hop on the subway back home, pick up some souvenirs at the Coney Island Beach Shop.

Top SUVs for Towing
If you want to tow large loads, it's probably best to consider a pickup truck. But some drivers need an SUV to haul people and goods. For those drivers, we've listed the best SUVs for towing, as ranked by towing capacity. Hopefully, this will make your search easier as you look for a new vehicle that can tow the boat, carry the family and haul everyone's gear.
Chevrolet Suburban 2500/GMC Yukon XL 2500 -- 9,600 pounds
If you're looking to tow, the best SUVs are undoubtedly the heavy-duty versions of GM's Chevrolet Suburban and GMC Yukon XL. At around 8,000 pounds, the light-duty models don't make our list. But the heavy-duty versions are workhorses thanks to a 352-horsepower 6.0-liter V8. Pricing starts around $46,000 with shipping, while eight seats are standard. While the Suburban 2500 and Yukon XL 2500 no longer boast 4-wheel steering or the diesel engines from models past, they're still king of the hill when it comes to workhorse SUVs.

Ford Expedition/Lincoln Navigator -- 9,200 pounds
A close second are the Ford Expedition and its luxury model, the Lincoln Navigator. Shoppers interested in long-wheelbase models -- the Expedition EL and Navigator L -- get slightly reduced towing capacity. But for those who pick the regular-length Expedition and Navigator, towing capabilities reach as high as 9,200 pounds. That's mostly due to a standard 5.4-liter V8 that makes 310 hp and a muscular 365 lb-ft of torque. A standard 6-speed automatic also helps move the Expedition and Navigator, even when they're pulling large loads. Pricing starts around $41,500 for the Expedition or $58,800 for the luxury-oriented Navigator.

Nissan Armada -- 9,000 pounds
The Armada may not be the top SUV on our list by towing capacity, but it offers a good combination of towing capabilities and price. It boasts a 9,000-lb capacity -- just a few hundred pounds off the class leaders -- yet offers a starting price of around $37,900. That's much less expensive than many SUVs on our list. And we're impressed with the Armada's powertrain, which is borrowed from Nissan's full-size Titan pickup. It offers 317 hp thanks to a standard 5.6-liter V8.
Infiniti QX56 -- 8,500 pounds
The QX56 is among the best luxury SUVs in this category. The QX56's $61,700 starting MSRP might seem high, but few SUVs blend the SUV's cutting-edge technology and new styling with such a high tow rating. And when you consider rivals, the QX56's base price doesn't sound so bad -- especially compared to the $80,000-plus Lexus LX 570. Maybe the QX56's best feature, however, is its 400-hp 5.6-liter V8. That engine, mated to a standard 7-speed automatic, makes the QX responsive whether moving around town or towing a heavy load on the highway.

Chevrolet Tahoe/GMC Yukon -- 8,500 pounds
The full-size Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon SUVs actually tow more than their larger Chevrolet Suburban 1500 and Yukon XL 1500 stablemates. Current versions pull up to 8,500 pounds with the optional trailering package. That's a big figure, and it's made possible by the SUVs' 320-hp 5.3-liter V8 and 6-speed automatic transmission. Look for the Tahoe and Yukon to offer even greater towing capacities when they're redesigned next year. Pricing starts around $42,500 for the Tahoe and $44,000 for the Yukon.

Lexus LX 570/Toyota Land Cruiser - 8,500 pounds
The Lexus LX 570 and Toyota Land Cruiser are the ultimate SUVs in the Lexus and Toyota lineups. That's proven when you look at pricing: The Land Cruiser starts around $79,500 with shipping, while the LX 570 is more than $82,000. Those are big numbers, but the trucks boast all the latest luxury gadgets and equipment. They also use a muscular 5.7-liter V8 that makes 383 hp. Thanks to that engine and the standard 6-speed automatic transmission, the LX 570 and Land Cruiser can pull 8,500 pounds.
Find a Toyota Land Cruiser for sale
Cadillac Escalade -- 8,300 pounds
The luxury-oriented Cadillac Escalade is rated to tow 8,300 pounds, which is slightly less than its GMC Yukon and Chevrolet Tahoe mechanical twins. Shoppers who don't mind losing the towing capacity will get a more luxury-oriented experience, from exterior and interior styling to a longer list of standard equipment. The Escalade also boasts a larger engine that makes 403 hp. Pricing starts around $69,000 for the 2014 Escalade, while a new model is expected this year or sometime in 2014.
Find a Cadillac Escalade for sale
What it means to you: As our list shows, several top SUVs for towing offer pickup-rivaling towing capacities plus room for the whole family.

Summer Performance Tires
Summer performance tires are designed for optimum performance and handling in warm climates. They are not suitable for cold, snowy or icy weather conditions. If you drive under those circumstances, you should equip your vehicle with all-season or winter tires, which offer better traction under those conditions. We suggest you use the recommended winter or all-season tires specified for your car or their equivalent. These summer performance tires also have a lower aspect ratio that aids performance and handling; however, in order to avoid tire, rim or vehicle damage, it is important that the inflation pressure is regularly checked and maintained at recommended levels. Serious wheel and tire damage may occur if the vehicle is operated on rough or damaged road surfaces, or upon encountering road debris or obstacles. Please also remember in making your selection that, while these tires deliver responsive handling, they may ride less comfortably and make more noise than other choices. Finally, these tires may wear more quickly than other choices. For more information on all of these topics, please consult the owner's manual, your local dealer or call 1-800-FOR-AUDI.
