Monkey Hill patrons often find their way to the dimly lit establishment to take advantage of the Monday through Friday Martini Menu Happy Hour Specials. In addition to a variety of fruity and flavored martinis, the bar boasts an extensive wine list—by the bottle and by the glass—and a variety of domestic and imported beers. Despite late night crowds that can make navigating the bar difficult, patrons still find room to play pool and shuffleboard at the bar's two tables. Check the Monkey Hill website for a schedule of occasional live music and comedy performances.
»Neutral Ground Coffee House
Just a short cab ride from downtown, this coffee shop has a '60s influenced decor. Appointments are just as you would expect—overstuffed furnishings and chess boards. Sunday nights are for the aspiring singer, songwriter or musicians to take the stage. If that doesn't draw you, come back another night and hear the professional contemporary or folk singers who perform here.
»Freret Street Publiq House
As much of a late night hot spot as a drinking den, Freret Street Publiq House is a lively spot for a fun night out. An outstanding roster of live acts, from recognized local bands to well-known artists, draws live music junkies to the club. Besides music, the club also accommodates comedy and other such acts for a complete entertainment package. The bar boasts a varied spirit list of worldly beers, wines and specialty cocktails. Fun events like trivia nights ensure that there's never a dull moment. Regular drink specials and related events keep the crowds coming. The patio is a favorite spot for regulars for chilling out after performances. Check website for schedules and more.
»The Chocolate Bar
The Chocolate Bar on South Broad Street is a lounge that is as sexy as it sounds. Catering to the 'Mature Minded', the lounge features an extensive and impressive back-lit bar, flat screen televisions and a VIP seating area. There is likely to be an age limit here as the lounge is mature themed, so get a nanny for the kids and skip out to have some fun.
»Le Bon Temps Roulé
Since its 1979 opening, Le Bon Temps has been welcoming laid-back New Orleanians to enjoy quiet afternoons at the bar and late nights drinking and dancing. A fully stocked bar and cozy, ultra-casual atmosphere encourage patrons to stop by during daylight hours for better than average bar eats including sandwiches, quesadillas, and burgers. And come back after dark for a full night of drinking and dancing. The Soul Rebels Brass Band, Joe Krown Organ Combo, and a variety of other brass, rock, and jam bands pack the Uptown neighborhood bar nearly every night. Stop by on Friday for the free oysters.

Rayn's wedding dress. She walked out of the dressing room and every eye went to her. "Oh," an elderly woman sighed, "that's her dress, right?" Floyd looked at her with sparkling eyes. He imagined her walking down the aisle toward him. He was happy. "That's not the groom is it?" Another woman asked. "That would be unfortunate." Floyd snapped from his dream and beamed at his "friend." "You look amazing. He'll love it. You're beautiful." "Oh," the same woman said, "he must be the best friend." "Or ex-lover," the first replied. Rayn looked at Floyd. She had heard the women and stifles giggles. Floyd raised his hand, not turning to the women, and said, "Ex-lover!" Rayn stared at the women and she and Floyd burst into laughter. "You really like it?" She asked after a moment. "You're going to make a beautiful bride," he told her, smiling sadly. She suddenly realized how painful it all must have been for him. The women still watched and listened as she said, "I'm sorry." "EX-FIANCÉ!" One woman yelled out, covering her mouth quickly after. However, neither looked up, because they were too busy searching each other's eyes. "Floyd I just-" "Forget it, okay?" He said, rising. "No, I can't. You...you proposed. And I wasn't ready. I'm sorry." "Let's just buy the dress and go-" "No!" She demanded, making him sit on the couch once more. "We are going to talk about...this." "Okay." He said, wondering what she possibly had to say. "You want honesty? Well, here you go. The reason I said no to the sweetest proposal I had ever seen? I. Was. Scared. Scared, okay? I. Was. Scared. You don't know why though. You wanna know?" She didn't give him a chance to respond before she said, "my parents' marriage wasn't broken up by money or loss of love! It was broken up by BREAKING! My father freaking BROKE! Do you know what it's like to see your own strong, invincible father BREAK? He went CRAZY! He beat my mother with a staff! He took the painting off the wall and sent his head through it! He punched me in the face! Me! A six year old little girl! His own flesh and blood! I was the one-me!-I had to pull the gun out of him hand to keep him from murdering himself! Do you know what that's like?!" She was screaming and her voice was cracking. Rayn's tears flowed freely down her cheeks and onto the perfect wedding gown. Every person stopped and watched as her life story unfolded. "Rayn, I-" he reached out to touch her and she smacked his hand away. "DONT!" She screeched. "Shut up and let me speak!" Putting her hands over her face, she breathed a moment. "I...I had to steal food from the school cafeteria because he refused to give my mother money to buy some. I fed my family for months. Finally, my mother found a job as a bar tender. She left my father and we found an apartment here. In New York. She filed for divorce and was given full custody of me and she got all the money. Turns out, my dad was rich. He had more than two million dollars in the bank. He inherited it from his parents, who were good people." Again, she took a deep breath and stared into Floyd's eyes. "I was 10 by the time that happened. My mom wanted to save so she just upgraded to a two bedroom apartment and then she was offered the job of a lifetime. She became an actress on Broadway. She got more and more money and it became an empire. She always made time for me, though. Made sure I was taken care of. Loved. Oh, she loved-and still loves-me. I went to college, culinary. And my father was never heard of again." Floyd looked at her, waiting for approval to say something. "You can talk now," Rayn told him as of reading his mind. Even though all eyes were trained on them, Floyd felt as if they were the only two there. "So...you're basically terrified that I will be like you're father." Rayn nodded. Floyd stood and cupped her tear filled face in his hands. "It doesn't have to be this way!" He whispered. "I will not be like that! I love you too much! I love you more than I probably should! I've never stopped loving you!" She grabbed his wrist and set her forehead against his. "I can't. I'm engaged to a stable, kind man." "And I'm not?" "Love can make you do crazy things." Floyd pulled away and stared at her. Her eyes were trained to the floor. "So the reason you're marrying him," he paused, thinking of his words, "is the same reason you don't want to marry him? Because you don't love him?" "Love is destructive." "But we aren't!" He argued, holding her face again. "We are so passionately in love that we can control ourselves. There's the love that you can control and the love that you can't. We can control our love. We have so far. I hold myself back each time I'm with you. I know you are to. We can control it." She thought a moment, then said, "no. We can't." Turning to the sales consultant, she said, "I'll take this one. How long for alterations?" The consultant stared wide-eyed, then said, "oh, yes, um, well usually it's a few weeks..." Her voice faded as she walked with Rayn to the dressing rooms. Floyd stood where he was, slack-jawed and shocked. Suddenly, two shoes were blocking his vision to the floor. He looked up and saw the old woman who had been gossiping about him earlier. "Sweetie, she loves you. It's obvious. You know, this is similar to my husband's and my love story. There he is, over there," she said, pointing to an old man sitting in a high backed chair. "He stood up at my wedding and rejected the marriage of me and a different man. Jerry-my husband-and I ran off and drove to Vegas. We were married the next day. We've lasted 47 years so far. And for our next anniversary we are having the wedding we never had. You'll get your girl, she'll come to you. Just be patient. Jerry was and look where we are! If it comes down to it, do what my husband did and reject the marriage. Take a stand. If you love her, then fight." Floyd stared at the old woman. She was at least 70 and full of wisdom. "Okay," he finally spoke, "I'll fight for her. I don't care how long it takes, I will fight." "That's it. Oh, here she comes! Good luck!" She walked away without another word. Rayn exited the dressing rooms and said I Floyd, "I'm sorry, can we just go, please?" He looked at the old woman who nodded. Let her do what she needs to do. "Of course," he old Rayn. "I'll get a cab while you pay." They left without another word.

Prothena rockets up with early data on a Roche-partnered Parkinson's drug
In a small study, an early-stage Parkinson's treatment from partners Prothena and Roche reduced levels of a protein with ties to the memory-destroying disease, sending the former company's shares up about 40%.
Device for remote, autonomous Parkinson's management being tested in Europe
Portuguese researchers are developing and testing a smart, portable system to manage Parkinson's disease in real time. The so-called Rempark system has been tested on more than 50 volunteers from Spain, Italy, Ireland and Israel, reports Medical Xpress. Unlike previous studies, these outpatients lived at home and used the device in real-world conditions.
Sanofi, Roche and Lilly help bankroll a $20M round for Parkinson's player LTI
Kees Been has banked the $20 million round needed to move a bold new development program for delaying or preventing Parkinson's toward the clinic. And the veteran biotech CEO at the helm of Lysosomal Therapeutics Inc. is moving forward with a group of high-profile backers in his corner.
UCB taps Neuropore in a $480M Parkinson's collaboration
Belgian drugmaker UCB has inked a $480 million deal to team up with Neuropore Therapies on some early-stage treatments for Parkinson's disease.
FDA approves AbbVie's Parkinson's drug, featuring delivery straight into the GI tract
The FDA just approved AbbVie's novel formulation of the standard Parkinson's drugs carbidopa and levodopa, Duopa, which is delivered straight into the patient's small intestine over 16 consecutive hours using an infusion pump and procedurally placed tube.
AbbVie wins FDA nod for a long-acting Parkinson's treatment
AbbVie picked up FDA approval for Duopa, an extended-release combination of two standard Parkinson's disease treatments that relies on an external pump.
23andMe strikes $60M Genentech deal to continue pivot to database-driven R&D
Genentech has given 23andMe a major boost. The big biotech has reportedly paid $10 million upfront and agreed to $50 million in milestones to access 23andMe's database for target discovery of new drugs for Parkinson's disease.
NeuroDerm's subcutaneously delivered alternative to oral levodopa shows promise in Parkinson's trial
Investors were thrilled by the Phase IIa clinical trial results of Neuroderm's continuously delivered Parkinson's candidates that are administered via a belt or patch pump, offering patients an alternative to traditional orally delivered levodopa, which is notorious for its fluctuating concentrations in the blood.
Positive primate study for Parkinson's inspires a rally for Minerva
Animal studies typically don't do much for a biotech's stock price. Findings can be hard to replicate, animal models often don't translate well to human studies and hopeful signs seen at the preclinical stage can vanish in an instant--particularly in tough fields like neurodegeneration.
NeuroDerm soars on promising Parkinson's results
Rebounding from a disappointing IPO, Israel's NeuroDerm watched its shares more than double on promising results from a small study of its Parkinson's disease treatments.

Stay away girls. Heartthrob Robert Pattinson may have swine flu after a girl kissed him on the lips and then told him she was just getting over swine flu.
The kid told Pattinson "My mom wouldn't pull the car over to let me out because I'm just getting over the swine flu… so I jumped out at the red light just to see you."
According to the National Enquirer, Pattinson shoved the girl away and ran off, while yelling over his shoulder, "You have the SWINE FLU?!… What the hell are you doing kissing anyone."
Our fearless British fellah also swore at his bodyguards and shouted, "You guys have got to keep these crazies away from me!"
He then immediately dashed off to a local drug store to buy Listerine – as if that would stop the swine flu.
Poor Rob recently revealed how people want him to bite them "People ask me to bite them and want to touch my hair," he said in November.
"I just don't want someone to have a needle and give me HIV and I don't want to get shot or stabbed.
"This is my life. People know my name and ambush me in public and try to figure out what hotel I'm staying at. I have accepted it as real now, but it still feels surreal."
Poor Rob – and now a swine flu scare? Curses

the latest reports from the League's Observers.
Membership Director
Six months after Jeanne, her husband and her first child moved to Elmhurst in 1953, she joined the Elmhurst League. She read about a LWV meeting in the Elmhurst Press and phoned the then-president, Ruth Ord. Ruth eagerly picked her up to go to the meeting with her, which happened to be the Annual Meeting, held in a church basement. The discussion and voting on a local program impressed her greatly. The members were so knowledgeable, articulate, and enthusiastic, that she joined.
In the 1950s, monthly member meetings, called "units", were held in a member's home, where a baby sitter was made available to watch over the members' children. Separate study groups were also available for those who wanted to be more fully informed. Most women at that time did not work outside the home and were "starving" for more substantial intellectual conversation than housekeeping and child rearing.
Like a true League president, Ruth found Jeanne a board position to keep her busy and interested. The Board met monthly in the morning. Through the years, Jeanne served on committees and the Board in a variety of positions including treasurer, membership and president in the 1960s. The problems she has worked on with the League included the ERA, fair housing, water conservation, separation of sewers and recently a new public library. Their goal was and is always to inform our citizens and get people out to vote.
Jeanne has been a League member for over 60 years and, consequently, some of her best friends are early League members. Many have died or moved away but she still regularly lunches with her early LWV friends. Their interest remains the same: to become informed citizens and to vote. They never run out of political conversation!
Jeanne has served on the Elmhurst's planning and zoning committee and the zoning commission before being elected alderman for two terms.

Predicting the weather is an incredibly complicated task. Stopping it altogether is even more difficult—but that doesn't mean scientists aren't trying. Obsession, cloud seeding, and very powerful storms.

People complain that politics are worse than ever. It happens to be true. But history contains as many examples of the contentious, weird, and wacky as the present—and those absurdities are actually vital to our democracy.

Since he was critically injured last month when the KOMO-TV helicopter crashed into his car, Richard Newman has received dozens of messages from well-wishers as well as other burn victims.
He remains in serious but stable condition in Harborview Medical Center's intensive-care unit, and he's read "every email, every card, every posting" sent his way, his partner, Daniel Jung, said Tuesday at a hospital medical briefing. The support has helped Newman, 38, as he undergoes treatment.
The crash of the helicopter near the Space Needle on March 18 killed pilot Gary Pfitzner, 59, and passenger Bill Strothman, a 62-year-old photojournalist. The cause is still under investigation.
Newman suffered second- and third-degree burns on 20 percent of his body, rib fractures and other minor fractures. He faces a long recovery, doctors at University of Washington Medicine Burn Center said Tuesday.

Despite the difficulties ahead, Jung said, his partner is keeping a positive attitude and remains focused on improving so he can go home.
Newman has undergone two surgeries, said Dr. Tam Pham, and the extent of his healing will determine whether he needs another.
One of his burns is behind his ear, and doctors are waiting to see if it will heal on its own or require a skin graft — something that would give Newman a permanent bald spot. It's difficult to predict when he will be released from the hospital, the doctors said.
"Richard is a fighter," Jung said. "He is a person who sees an obstacle and will overcome it. He had incredible odds, and he survived it."
Newman was on Broad Street driving to work at Genelex, where he is a clinical-trials project manager, when the helicopter crashed onto his car, Jung said. He was able to escape the burning car as Brian Post, a security guard at Fisher Plaza, ran to Newman and helped beat out the flames on his body.
Post's actions likely saved Newman's life, said Dr. Nicole Gibran, of the Burn Center. Newman and Jung have since met with Post to extend their gratitude.
On Tuesday, Jung also thanked the first responders, doctors and those who have contributed more than $10,000 to Newman's Projekt Karma fundraising page, set up to help with expenses related to the crash.
Jung said Newman doesn't remember the crash or many of the details leading up to it, which they consider a good thing. Instead he's focused on getting back to his family, including Jung and their young son, his job and his love of gardening and softball.
"This is a life-changing experience," Jung said. "We saw things we didn't see before, and we both realized we don't do enough, and we need to do more to help others. That's a big thing we are going to do."
