CHRISTOPHER BRAM: Bram grew up in Kempsville, Virginia (outside Norfolk), where he was a paperboy and an Eagle Scout. He graduated from the College of William and Mary in 1974 (B.A. in English). He moved to New York City in 1978.
His nine novels range in subject matter from gay life in the 1970s to the career of a Victorian musicAl Clairvoyant to the frantic world of theater people in contemporary New York. Fellow novelist Philip Gambone wrote of his work, "What is most impressive in Bram's fiction is the psychological and emotional accuracy with which he portrays his characters. . . His novels are about ordinary gay people trying to be decent and good in a morally compromised world. He focuses on the often conflicting claims of friendship, family, love and desire; the ways good intentions can become confused and thwarted; and the ways we learn to be vulnerable and human." Bram has written numerous articles and essays (a selection is included in Mapping the Territory). He has also written or co-written several screenplays, including two shorts directed by his partner, Draper Shreeve.
His novel Father of Frankenstein, about film director James Whale, was made into the movie Gods and Monsters starring Ian McKellen, Lynn Redgrave, and Brendan Fraser. Bill Condon adapted the screenplay and directed. (Condon won an Academy Award for his adaptation.) Bram was a Guggenheim Fellow in 2001. In May 2003, he received the Bill Whitehead Award for Lifetime Achievement. He lives in Greenwich Village and teaches at New York University. http://www.christopherbram.com/

Scientists hope to test new samples of Pacific bluefin tuna after low levels of radioactive cesium from Japan's Fukushima Daiichi nuclear accident turned up in fish caught off California in 2011, researchers reported Monday.
The bluefin spawn off Japan, and many migrate across the Pacific Ocean. Tissue samples taken from 15 bluefin caught in August, five months after the meltdowns at Fukushima Daiichi, all contained reactor byproducts cesium-134 and cesium-137 at levels that produced radiation about 3% higher than natural background sources - but well below levels considered dangerous for human consumption, the researchers say.
Cesium-137 has a radioactive half-life of about 30 years, and traces of the isotope still persist from above-ground nuclear bomb tests in the 1950s and '60s. But cesium-134, which has a half-life of only two years, "is inarguably from Fukushima Daiichi," Stanford University marine ecologist Dan Madigan told CNN.

Recent Rubicon Bay reviews
"My son and family enjoyed one week at Rubicon Retreat. One week was not long enough. The home is perfect our two families each had its own floor offering privacy as well as comfort. The views are lovely what a great way to wake up in the morning looking out at the many shades of Tahoe blue. The house was built with great style and quality. This is the kind of place that was wonderful to come back to after a day out in nature. Bliss, Emerald Bay, and Sugerpine are just next door making trips out very easy. We can't wait to return to Rubicon Retreat."
"I stayed here with my family (which included my 2-year old niece and our two dogs) in mid-October. The house is on a stunning location, right on the crystal clear waters of Rubicon Bay. It is also conveniently located close to town, so you can make emergency runs to the (small) grocery store if needed. The house was clean and comes very well equipped with linens, towels, and wood for the fireplace. The kitchen has a terrific viking stove, a grill just outside the kitchen door, and all the pots, pans, and utensils you could need for cooking. It has a large master bedroom and bath, both of which have stunning views. Our family spent most of our time out on the deck, taking in the beautiful sunsets from the hot tub. The house also comes with fast WiFi Internet. There was a single-person kayak available for our use. Dave, the owner, is incredibly responsive and helpful. He answered all our questions promptly and even threw in a free night's stay and permitted us to check in and out as early or late as we wanted. I would highly recommend staying here. We are already planning to come back next summer!"
"I just returned from a lovely week at the Marshall family home. My extended family selects a destination area each summer to spend time together and this was a perfect spot! The home is so well appointed with everything anyone might need and many things that are unexpected and very appreciated in a vacation rental. The location is conveniently located to both South Shore and popular West Shore activities and restaurants. After a full day hiking or swimming and kayaking out on the large dock on the lake, our evenings were spent around the dining room table playing board games or watching baseball. We enjoyed reading about the Marshall family and looking at the many family photos around the house. It is obvious that this is a special place, filled with lots of wonderful memories. Thank you for letting us add to that history."
"This house is in a great location. Our family and our pets spent the holiday and took advantage of the abundant supply of firewood and hot tub. The kitchen was well stocked and easy to work in. Summer's coming and we would like to go back and take advantage of the private beach and bocce ball court. The owner was extremely helpful and easy to work with."

It won't last forever. Either crude prices will eventually rise and the price of the refined products will rise with it, or crude will stay low and the government will raise the fuel taxes since they know that the economy can function with $3.00 plus fuel prices. You can almost bet that any fuel tax increase will be a temporary increase that will be rolled back just as soon as hell freezes over.

Reservation Rant for the Day
We do not man our offices 24/7/365. To do so would be financially irresponsible. During our offseason, when the parks are closed, we rely on phone messages and e-mails to complete the ten to fifteen percent of reservations that are not made through our online reservation system. We have often encountered e-mail accounts that either will not accept e-mails from "unknown" senders or e-mail accounts that have sent our replies to junk mail files. With phone messages, we find that around 10% of the messages are virtually unintelligible. Some people don't leave their phone number, and others neglect to leave the area code and only give us the seven digits. Can't return those calls even though we want to. If the person leaving the message would enunciate their name and phone number SLOWLY, and possibly repeat that phone number along with giving a best time for a return call, they would find that their success in getting a callback will improve. Also, if you leave a voice message, be sure your callback number has a voice mailbox set up to receive voice messages. We will try a few times to return calls, but we aren't going to devote several days making repeated attempts in hopes that someone will finally answer their phone.

Stupid Pet Policies
Here's the rule that caught my eye: "Pets are not allowed outside the campground". So what jurisdiction does the campground have over what takes place off of their property? And more importantly, once you get into the campground with your pet, how do you leave with him/her? (tongue-in-cheek emoticon here) Most likely the park is in an area where the neighbors do not want people walking pets on their property. Could be the park is adjacent to a residential area, adjacent to a golf course, adjacent to a public park that prohibits pets or a host of other reasons. People may not like this park's rules and policies, but they sure seem to be very clear and open about presenting them upfront and letting the potential guests make their decision prior to making a reservation.

Any prospect of talking some sense into the proprietors? Any other suggestions?Reading between the lines it appears that "sense" has probably been beaten into the proprietors by some problem dog situations in the past. As for suggestions, I would say you have three choices. 1. Follow the rules. 2. Stay Elsewhere. 3. Violate the rules and live with the consequences.

Bumper ball
Are you sure he didn't just tell you to ignore the ratings stamped on the bumper next to where the ball attaches? That wouldn't be an incorrect statement since you are going to need to have a weight distribution hitch installed and those ratings will be vastly different than what is stamped on that bumper. Almost any full sized pickup equipped with a proper weight distribution hitch is going to be rated to handle both your tongue weight and the weight of your trailer. In 1/2 ton models, you will be getting close to the max ratings. Only you can make the decision as to whether or not going up to a 3/4 ton or larger truck is going to be worth the money and sacrifice of ride comfort and fuel economy.

It is pretty obvious why his previous employer dumped him now and I am certain he will meet the same fate at CW. CW needs to do a better job on vetting new employees.Great idea in theory, almost impossible to do in real life. NO employer is ever going to say anything negative about a past employee. It's a quick way to get sued and you will most likely lose. On top of that, it was a competitor that they worked for, so a bad employee leaving your business and going to that competitor might just be a great thing for your business, so why upset the apple cart. References are worthless, no one is going to put on their reference list people who are going to say bad things about them. You can do background checks, but there isn't a database that tracks a person's sales ability. If he didn't have a criminal past, it really comes down to reading the tea leaves and not everyone is a Miss Cleo.

Coast to Coast and RPI
Threads like these are why I believe such membership programs are heading for a complete collapse. The ONLY way such programs make financial sense is if there is a steady sale of NEW memberships at high prices. If most people buy from the resale market there is no new money entering the system and parks are going to have nothing but money losing stays with rents less than $10.00 per night. We are not affiliated with any of the membership parks or high discount clubs and I can't see any reason for a park to enter into those agreements if there isn't a financial carrot. Buy at your own risk of not having any decent parks to choose from in the future.

Selling a Distressed Motorhome
I agree with the just put "needs work" crowd, with two exceptions. The big exception would be if there was a safety issue that would not normally be considered by a buyer, especially if you created that hazard by modifying the rig. For example, if 4 of the 5 lug bolts on a wheel had broken off and you just superglued them back into place to make it look good, that needs to be disclosed. I would disclose any major safety issue just to protect myself and feel good about myself at the same time. If the brakes don't work and you let the buyer drive off, you may be legally liable if they then plow into a school bus and hopefully you would feel downright bad for the parents of the dead and injured. The extra few dollars you might have in your pocket because you bluffed you way through the sale probably won't make up for it. The second would be if the rig has had major damage repaired. Things like full flood damage, major damage from an accident etc, especially if those repairs are covering up major problems that you know about. If the internal wiring is all corroded because you accidentally drove it into the ocean, that should be disclosed. Cosmetic issues, leaks, squeaks, radios that have a lot of static, "needs work" is sufficient.

B.C. Parks fee increase
Depending upon the levels at the park - an increase in campers can require more staff - keeping the office open longer hours - increasing the size of the sewer system - adding restrooms - etc. Costs can be budgeted on X number of camper nights per year. If you get 1.5 X camper nights per year - it can actually raise fixed costs. With all due respect meant most sincerely: I can appreciate that as with most businesses, but an increased demand means an increase in revenue, which typically equates to a larger spread of costs so that additional revenue should mean higher profitability, albeit one may need to provide a portion of those increased profits to reinvestment for more support staff/equipment/services. If anything I've always found generally the more customers we can sell our service or products to usually the cheaper the cost of production per item/service up to maximum capacity. Then most businesses look to more automation or higher output machinery/systems to produce even more product/service at less cost per item so more profit. So in general, I'm struggling to get my head around how increased revenue wouldn't more than cover any expansion or additional support staff needed without an increase in purchase price? We've personally evidenced a 300% increase in the past 16 years in some CG fees, but not seen our salaries go up 300% in the same period. Or is it more a case of the head honchos getting too greedy for their six and seven figure income salaries for very little contribution we see, in way too many public sectors of today. Usually it is never the right answer to throw people at problems or more dollars it's usually a case of assessing without prejudice the processes, systems and procedures and enforcing the expectations/accountability from employees they should of been made aware of and agreed to at hire date. 10000 camp nights at $30 = $300,000 15000 camp nights at $30 = $450,000 thats an extra $150,000 towards an additional staff member, some extra sites and water/sewer expansion, why the need to increase the per usage base cost because of higher usage demand. It would make more sense if they were getting reduced people leading to less revenue to cover the fixed costs. There'll come a time when they do price themselves out of the market, and by then it might be too late to retrace in a timely manner. We are already hearing of folks that have stopped supporting these higher prices for little facilities, and the younger sets coming behind will have to watch their dollars stretch very far when interest rates eventually start rising to more commonly seen rates of yesteryear and that's just one of many things that could change how people have to reallocate their spending habits. A lot of government controlled entities at National, Regional and Local levels might find before much longer they've all shot themselves in the foot. Change is inevitable, we just don't have the crystal ball to know when.While demand does rise and fall with pricing (at least in Econ 51 class) there is much more to consider. First demand for RV sites is not that elastic (meaning price is not a primary driver). No one is sitting at an RV park in the Great Smoky Mountains saying they would have went to Yosemite if the RV sites there were $3.00 less. Demand for RV sites is much more driven by location, season and even weather. You could give the sites away in most locations and not draw a substantially greater crowd (other than taking guests from one local park to another). Since the selling features of private parks and government parks are often very different, private parks are not really in competition for business with the public parks. Public parks also are not in competition with each other since the monies end up in the same coffers. There is really no competitive element to public park pricing, hence they don't have to make a pricing decision based on business they might lose to a competitor. One of the major goals of public parks often might be to make enough money to convince the appropriate governing entities that it is not a serious drain on the governments limited resources to keep those parks open. As someone has already pointed out, apparently in BC, there is $2.00 of public money supplementing every dollar of park fees. That is a subsidy that budget officials could easily decide is too much subsidy for too few users and lead to cut backs in those parks. Sometimes paying a little more is good policy both for the individual user and the public as a whole.

50% less from what you paid
Just for fun I called a big dealer and ask him to give me what he would give for my 4 year old Winnebago Sightseer . It was 1/2 of what I payed for it. Does it ever stop going down or level off. Well, maybe "just for fun" the dealer gave you a lowball offer. Or maybe he has to make money to cover for all the wasted time he spends giving responses to bogus, non-serious inquiries about the value of someone's RV when they have no intention of doing a deal. You wasted his time and you are the one complaining? Maybe it was just fun for you, it was non-productive work for the dealer.Best post in this thread!!. On top of that, how can any dealer give a quote on a rig they aren't even looking at. They have two choices. 1) Give a safe quote, leaving them with a little bit of wiggle room should the rig is not be exactly as described. Trouble is, you get a situation like the first poster where they are upset with the value given. They of course don't come in to trade or sell the rig to the dealer and the dealer does indeed just waste time and money. 2) give a high quote and nit-pick the every detail about the rig when the guy brings it in to drive the actual price down to what it is worth. This might bring the customer into the dealership, giving the dealer at least a puncher's chance at making a deal. But almost always people take offense with someone telling them all the little things wrong with their RV and it just turns into bad blood and a waste of time. Most of us would not waste the time of other businesses. We wouldn't have construction companies come out and give us estimates on remodeling jobs we have no intention of undertaking. Just like the "boy who cried Wolf", enough people waste the dealer's time with nonsense like this, you will end up with a dealer who assumes every such call is a waste of time. And finally, is there anyone, anywhere, who didn't know that RVs depreciate about as fast as a punctured balloon?

Deposit fee for dogs
Since I don't recall EVER having a Camp Host, or anybody else, inspect my site as I pulled out to see if there was any "dog damage", I'm not sure just how such a deposit would be administered. Who decides whether or not I get my deposit back?? My dog?? My wife?? Somebody in the office who hasn't seen my site in a week?? Splain it to me, Lucy!Damage deposits have been around for many years. Since Hotels, motels, apartment and home rentals, Car rental agencies and a multitude of other entities appear to be able to handle it, I would think even dumb ole campground owners could do it as well. Like most of those businesses, the vast majority of the deposits would be nothing more than a waiver that allows a credit card charge in the case of a covered incident. Probably only cash paying customers would actually have to post a true deposit. None of the other businesses are required to have an inspection prior to departure, their word (and generally photographic evidence) is good enough for the credit card companies, so it would be good enough for campgrounds as well.

Deposit fee for dogs
A dog with an irresponsible owner can cause a lot of damage. If it is a deposit and you get your money back should no damage occur, what's the problem? We require deposits on several items such loaned sports equipment, loaned tools etc. The thought of losing $$$ somehow makes people a bit more responsible. I would expect it such an incentive would translate into pet owner behavior as well.

Rudest dealer ever
Mike, I have a tale that absolutely does not relate...but does.... Years ago the Princess and I were in the market for a new SUV... being young and naïve we stopped in at a local Scottsdale Mercedes Benz dealer... were led into the Manager's mahoghany lined office (should had been a clue), were offered coffee in China cups, and seated at a huge leather topped desk in over-stuffed leather chairs. (smaller then the Managers... and lower.). After more then appropriate delay the Manager (God) arrived (suit,tie,Rolex,humidor). Polite enough, but it was clear we were out of our element... when I tried to price offer ...was met with a terse... "we don't haggle". And, the interaction promptly (uncomfortably for us)ended. Wife and I drove home in silence... appropriately embarrassed. Now that we can afford their gilded offerings we have never returned ...remembering how we were made to feel. morale to the story... wrong place , wrong time. But worth remembering. We have voted with our wallets and choose not to give them our business...ever. Doesn't effect them in the least, but makes us feel better. I suggest you do the same. CharlesWhat is wrong with any person or business having nice things? I have almost all of the things you mentioned that the dealer had, sans a humidor, since I don't smoke. I wear the watch frequently, prefer to drink my coffee from a real coffee cup instead of Styrofoam (better for the environment too) and the suit goes on when the situation calls for it. Would it make my business any more attractive if all I had was ratty t-shirts, mis-matched socks, a trash can full of paper coffee cups and judged the time of day by looking at the sun? If a person's wardrobe or a business's furniture and fixtures can intimidate you out of making a purchase the problem probably resides in the mirror. As for not negotiating, one of the biggest complaints you see with automobile dealers and RV dealers and Boat dealers is that you have to negotiate to get the best price. In your example, the dealer holds firm to their pricing, no haggling necessary and now that is a problem. Not sure it is possible to have both fair pricing and a horse trading environment.

Help on campground directories
Hello everyone, Please be assured the 2015 Good Sam RV Travel & Savings Guide is still a vital cmapground directory, with over 13,000 listings for RV parks and campgrounds, including 2,100+ Good Sam Parks. As well as listings you'll find a whole host of useful information, color maps, destination and trip ideas as well as money saving coupons. It continues to provide the trusted 10/10*/20 Good Sam ratings for campgrounds and RV parks. The ratings are not in any way determined, or connected to, the advertising RV parks and campgrounds choose to place in the guide. Regards, Ellen Tyson Sr Marketing & Product Manager Good Sam RV Travel & Savings GuideSo the guide continues as always, ratings for all the listed private parks (there has never been ratings for public parks, state parks etc.). To expand upon another remark, it is impossible to list all potential parks, since many are not known to publisher. New parks appear and disappear. Certain parks do not fall under the criteria to be listed, such as being totally private, not allowing any public access, not offering overnight accommodations, being of a size smaller than the minimum to be listed in the book. Then parks can choose to not be listed. They can just plain run the reviewer out of the park on a rail or request that the park not be included in the directory. Though you will never convince some people of the truth, the ads make no difference in the ratings. There are plenty of parks with high ratings that have no ads whatsoever. What you will seldom see is a low scoring park with a big ad. The reason for that is not some great conspiracy, but common logic. Why would you pay to advertise in a publication that says your product is junk? It would be a waste of money. You really don't need aliens, secret societies, under the table payoffs, crooked reviewers and the like to create an environment where the parks that advertise tend to have high scores. Common sense suffices.

How much reducing price increases demand is of course up to debate, but the 'invisible hand' works in mysterious ways and demand will increase with lower price. Can I prove or say how, no but there is hundreds of years of proof when it is measured.Yes, Adam Smith was right, demand rises as prices fall. But if you made it to the second lecture of Econ 51 you would have learned that demand can be either "elastic" meaning price is very important to demand or "inelastic" meaning it is not very sensitive to pricing. RV sites tend to be relatively inelastic. The pricing of RV sites is generally not the driver of whether or not someone is going to travel in a specific area. Then you have consider the relationship of pricing to profitability. If a product cost $9.00, you would much rather sell 100 of them at $20 than sell 10 times as many of them at $10 ($1100 gross profit at $20 vs $1000 gross profit at $10) even though your gross revenue would be much greater selling 1000 ($2000 is sales at $20 vs $10,000 in sales at $10). Lower prices that lead more volume and gross revenue are not always in the best interest of a business.

Its a gimmick for both parties. If it was a very good one, you would see more members on both sides. We choose not to be one. Max I disagree that it is a gimmick. If you, as a park owner, offer PPA for your slow times, you entice people to stay who might not have stayed without the discount, If you are filling a spot that would have stayed empty, you win, If I get it for half price, I win too. If I like the place, I might stay on my way through next time, even if I can't get half price. Once again, you win, and I stay at a place I am familiar with. As a park owner, I don't see the down side- filling spots that would have been empty anyway. As a bonus, if people like it and put reviews out there stating that, you win again. Unless you are full all the time anyway.... SueNot necessarily true. Most parks wouldn't get a lot more guests no matter what the price. Say the park was at Glacier National Park. Lowering the price from $20 to $40 wouldn't draw any additional people to area. Nobody is in their RV saying we would go to Northern Montana in May if only the RV parks were 50% off. What would happen is a few of the guests that are in the area who would have stayed in that park for full price will, instead, pay half price. That costs the park money. For example, say there are 20 guests in the park at $40.00 per night. That's $800 gross. If 10% are Passport members they would take advantage of the discount if it was available, so the Gross goes down to $760.00 Now the park has to find two additional guests to break even on the gross income line and probably a third new guest is needed before they break even on the net income line, since their costs have risen (to get to the $800 gross they now have to have 22 rigs using services instead of 20 rigs if they just charged full price). If adding that third rig covers all the costs, they don't make an extra dime unless they can attract a fourth new customer (a 20% increase in business, not easy at any pricing level). Now the park has taken on the additional workload of 20% more business, meaning more trash to haul, more restrooms to clean, more sites to clean etc. etc. etc. all to make a fraction of $20.00 (that fourth rig is using utilities too, so they don't net 100% of that twenty dollars either). That's why we would never consider it. It just moves customers from full pay to discount customers.

RV Parks, Campgrounds and Attractions
campgrounds with cable boxes
Yes, it is encryption by the cable company that makes the converter box necessary. They have done this for several reasons. The most obvious is to prevent theft of service. Who hasn't known or at least heard of someone who tapped into the cable company's system and got their service for free? However, the biggest reason is by having a system that requires a set-top box the cable company can then tap into the video on demand market, which is where they make their big bucks. The converter box you get at check-in is usually a special "budget commercial box" that doesn't allow two way communications, but every subscriber's home boxes will allow you to get all that juicy pay per view content. The alternative for the park is to set up their own private cable system with head end units, converters, amplifiers and the like. They will still pay a per site fee to the cable company, but the hookups for the guests will remain as they were in the past just hookup, scan for channels and you are good to go. The downsides to the park are such systems are very expensive to purchase (10s of thousands of dollars), the cable company may decide to not allow the park the use of the current wiring, requiring another multiple tens of thousands of dollars or upgrades by the park. Plus, such systems require an individual converter for each channel the park broadcasts and there is a fee for each channel. Thus it is really only practical to have a few dozen channels at most. Kind of hard for a park to justify a few hundred dollars for a converter and a recurring monthly charge to offer a channel only one or two people would ever want to watch, so the parks are left to decide what is a popular channel to include and what channels should just be left off (and there are certain channels that carry a high premium to include, I.E. ESPN at over $6.00 per month per site, a very high price for a seasonal park to pay ($7200 year for a 100 site park only open 6 months a year since you have to pay for the services on an annual contract with many cable companies and with parks like mine, ESPN doesn't really have a lot of customer valuable content in the summer, since it is really only golf, tennis and baseball where the big draw to ESPN is football, basketball and hockey seasons). So to make the long story short, when the cable company goes to encryption there are only three bad options for the parks. 1. the converter box 2. Big investments in a private cable system 3. Stop offering cable. (for the record, we chose #2, sans ESPN)

Fulltiming with 8 K9's RV parks? lol
Thier suggestion, also if I register them as comfort dogs , others may do the same. Misrepresenting the nature of the dogs will probably not help matters. It may in fact make it more difficult for people who have actual service dogs. http://pleasedontpetme.com/differences.php And why please tell me I am misrepresenting them, I have heart problems and they comfort me and keep mine and hubbys blood pressure down. I didn't say SERVICE dogs I said comfort dogs.. theres a big difference. Unless you HAVE experience with certain rv parks n pets PLEASE DON'T COMMENT! Thanks to the rest for your kind replies.I haven't posted in these forums for a while, and I will be signing off as soon as I finish this post, but the guy wants real world experience, so here it is. 1. NO WAY would we allow eight dogs. We have a two dog limit and make multiple exceptions yearly, but eight is too many. 2. Lie about the number of dogs and that will get you a ticket out. At my parks, asking permission is much better than expecting forgiveness. I have zero tolerance for people attempting to circumvent my policies by telling lies. 3. Implying that your dogs are potentially covered by ADA laws, thus frightening un-informed owners and managers into accepting your dogs when they otherwise would not is beyond reprehensible. There are people who require Service Animals and trading off their unfortunate circumstances for personal gain is on par with conning the blind by telling them a five dollar bill is really a twenty or stealing a wheelchair bound woman's purse because she is easy to outrun. I would take great pleasure in escorting anyone who tries such unscrupulous tactics off my property. There, real world, first hand answers.

History tends to repeat itself, which means there's a good chance that Napoleon will rise from his grave to criticize the shortcomings of NBA players. Admire what history has taught us thus far with today's Groupon.
Choose from Three Options
- $7 for admission for one (a $14 value)
- $14 for admission for two (a $28 value)
- $28 for admission for four (a $56 value)
Admission includes access to audio tours, as well Railroaders: Jack Delano's Homefront Photography, now through August 10, 2015. Exploring the little-known story of America's railroad workers during World War II, this collection of photos from Office of War Information photographer Jack Delano chronicle the importance of railways to the homefront's morale and livelihood. More than 60 photos–both color and black and white–take viewers from station to yard to car, telling the story of America's transportation infrastructure and the vital role Chicago played as one of the country's largest transportation hubs. In addition to the images themselves, visitors can dive deeper into history through interactive elements including subject biographies, a reproduction ticket window, and ambient sounds inspired by the noises of the day.
Admission also includes access to Unexpected Chicago, the exhibit that puts one special item from the museum's collection on display for a limited run of two months. Past artifacts that have been displayed in this exhibit include Hugh Hefner's little black book, John Hancock's billfold, and a game-worn Scottie Pippen jersey from the 1998 championship series.
Student and senior discounted tickets are available but this Groupon still offers the best deal available. Children 12 and under are free.
Chicago History Museum
Founded in 1856, the Chicago History Museum upholds its legacy as one of the city's oldest cultural institutions with more than 22 million artifacts blown in from the city's storied past. Permanent exhibitions include Chicago: Crossroads of America, which sends visitors on a journey through a re-created jazz club and features a replica of an original L car and the monkey bars that its passengers hung from during commutes. Collections of dioramas detail the story of the city's growth from a barren nineteenth-century trading outpost to the bustling, youthful city that hosted the World's Columbian Exposition in 1893. Exhibitions centered on Abraham Lincoln offer an in-depth look at his campaign and election in 1860, and Lincoln's Chicago shows visitors a vision of the city as the 16th president saw it: from 7 feet, 6 inches in the air.

"For those interested in Chicago history, I would skip the first floor and go directly to the second floor where the most interesting Chicago history exhibits and information are displayed. The first floor has two rooms: the first contains dioramas of time periods and events in Chicago that are marginally interesting, certainly not a compelling display. The second room shows a politically correct perspective of the United States's incredibly racist, sexist, homophobic, and xenophobic history with little context. (Somehow, they missed ageism. Maybe the curators are young and not yet self aware of their ageist tendicies. Ahem.). The second floor has an absorbing temporary exhibit on railroading and its' impact on the US during the second world war. Also, there is a really cool blues exhibit. The rest of the second floor is also interesting with early Chicago history to recent history. A real streetcar, architectural history, products that were made, new products developed in Chicago are all on the second floor. There is also a gift store that is meh, and a cool coffee and snack area on the first floor. Overall, worth a visit. "
"Parking available at south end of Lincoln Park."
"Love this museum. "

BlackBerry To Allow Rivals To Manage Its Smartphones 43
from the source-code-and-we'll-talk dept.
Slashdot is powered by your submissions, so send in your scoop
RIM/BlackBerry has been in decline for years.
The stuff they played a role in pioneering are now pretty much commodities. They rested on their laurels for way too long, and eventually got lapped by the rest of the market. Apple and Android have huge market shares compared to what BlackBerry still has.
They've been laying off people, closing buildings, and putting out products hardly anybody buys, and they've been saddled with ineffective management for years.
They're well on their way to becoming a footnote. Their founders all got rich and moved on.
What we're watching is the dying days of a once cool company.
Sad to see them go, but this is largely a mess of their own creation, even if they don't realize it.
I know people who owned their PlayBook tablet -- and, quite frankly, they were crap. There was nothing in the store, their Android support was a joke, and then they stopped giving updates for it. I'm betting most of the people who ever owned that tablet wouldn't ever own another product from them.

Game of Thrones is a site for the HBO-series based on George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire.
New to the series? Read our spoiler-free review of A Game of Thrones.
Read our Privacy Policy.
Following our recent post giving a quick run down on what's going on on the toy front of Game of Thrones licensing, we're pleased to share some news from Dark Horse. While NY Toy Fair has just started, they've given us a look at one of the latest products they're making, a sizable bust of Sandor Clegane, aka the Hound.
As you can see below, the highly-deailed Clegane bust features features a hinged visor for his helmet, a feat which I can't say I've ever seen before of a collectible bust of this sort. Whether others have done it or not, though, it's certainly a neat touch, allowing fans the chance to display him how they like.
Taking a page from Han Zimmer's Inception score, HBO is teasing a brand new trailer due this Sunday night with this very brief Vine video—and accompanying audio—that suggests it may focus on Daenerys and the story in the east:
No new images here, but it certainly whets the appetite to see more.
As the Season 3 Blu-Ray release approaches its February 18th release date (Pre-order: US Bluray, US DVD, UK Bluray, UK DVD), HBO and HBO UK hosted a very special event for bloggers, media, and fans presenting an early look at the kind of exclusive features the Blu-ray will take place. We were invited, and I happily trooped off to London while Linda held down the fort.
Hosted at the lovely Soho hotel, the event featured an open bar (very important, that!), a magnificent Red Wedding-themed cake made by the talented Choccywoccydoodah team, and a terrific hostess in Maisie Williams. After an initial bit of chatting—including with Nick and Ben from the University of Exeter's Game of Thrones Society—we were ushered in to the Soho's theatre for a screening of the Blu-Ray-exclusive, detailed behind the scenes look at the creation of "The Rains of Castamere". The episode was introduced by Maisie, who discussed her reaction and that of fans the world over to the infamous Red Wedding—reactions that led HBO to create this teaser for the collection:
As the program started with the familiar strains of the Game of Thrones theme, we saw the typical picture-in-picture approach to showing the episode and also behind the scene interviews, shots, and more that described the action as it was going on, how it was put together, and more. It should prove very insightful for those who want to learn what goes into creating an episode, and adapting written material to the screen. Courtesy of HBO, here's a taste of what this will look like, with an excerpt from the episode:
Afterward, HBO gave out gift bags to those who had attended, including their own very slice of the Red Wedding cake. All in all, it was a terrific event, put together first and foremost for the fans of Game of Thrones. Hopefully UK fans will get more opportunities in the future to take part in such special screening events!
As season 4 approaches, the licensing juggernaut that is HBO's Game of Thrones keeps on moving as well. Things are heating up significantly in the toy area (keep reading for a contest to win some of the figures!), as figurines and miniatures based on the Game of Thrones license have proven very popular. Leading the way, of course, has been Funko's POP! series of figures, which are being released in new editions with some regularity. Funko has been expanding, however, in two directions.
First, to really encourage the collecting craze, Funko has created its new "blind box" minis in the same style as the POP! figures. The "blind boxes"—named for the fact that you never know what you're going to get—are going to lead to a lot of collecting and trading. The other direction Funko has gone, however, is creating the first-ever 6" collectible action figures for the series. Not yet really released, Toy Ark spotted early photos of the figures via an eBay auction of someone who had gotten a hold of them early. The initial series of six figures include Jon Snow, Tyrion Lannister , The Hound, a White Walker, Daenerys Targaryen, and Ned Stark.
Last night, HBO aired a 15 minute feature highlighting what's to come in season 4… and embracing the magic of the Internet, they have releaed it on to Youtube. You can watch it below:
Having watched that, what has you most excited?
(Our usual screencapping efforts shall be delayed a few days, as some other Game of Thrones-relevant things take precedence!)
As the February 18th release date for the Game of Thrones season 3 Blu-Ray and DVD set approaches (Pre-order: US Bluray, US DVD, UK Bluray, UK DVD), previews of some of its contents have begun to appear. Over at Target.com, the full animated retelling of the Battle of Qohor—narrated by Iain Glen—can be seen.here. Have to say, the animation gets increasingly intricate and ambitious—terrific work from the DVD content team.
Now the Wall Street Journal has joined in the fun, sharing an exclusive look at behind-the-scenes material connected to the episode "The Rains of Castamere", revealing some of the effects magic to make the direwolves take part in the action:
Impressive digital compositing and greenscreen work, reminding one that the show is one of the most elaborate productions in the history of television.
The Making Game of Thrones blog has posted a new season 4 video, this time introducing the show's new production designer, Deborah Riley. A lot of glimpses of new sets, discussion of all the work that is involved in one of the most intricate television productions in the world, and also some glimpses of characters old (in brand new costumes, in some cases) and new:
On a related note, the Game of Thrones production has a tremendous crew working for it, many of them Northern Ireland locals, so it's no surprise that Belfast's growing reputation as a place with a lot of skilled craftsmen and production workers has led to more demand for studio space to accommodate more productions.
HBO has finally released some official stills from season 4 of Game of Thrones—premiering April 6th—and there's the usual lovely assortment of images of actors…
.... but for fans of the novels, perhaps the most important one is the one that features the first good look at Indira Varma as Ellaria Sand, with that character's lover, the Dornish prince Oberyn Martell, also known as the Red Viper. There's many more images to be found, however, totalling fifteen showing off some new costumes, hinting at some key relationships, and more (including, for that matter, the first good look at Michiel Huisman as Daario Naharis.
You can find them at our gallery.
Ahead of the February 9th airing of the 15 minute-long season 4 preview feature, HBO has released a promotional video giving a taste of what's to come:
Just one tiny bit of new footage, I believe, featuring Joffrey with a sword (fans will know what that's about). The real fun comes February 9th.
HBO has just sent out a news blast with information that should be of interest to fans of Game of Thrones: a 15 minute featurette will air prior to February 9's airing of True Detective (great show, by the by) , titled Game of Thrones Ice and Fire: A Foreshadowing. The featurette promises to have "clips from upcoming episodes, behind-the-scenes-footage, interviews with talent, and cast members' answers to questions posed by fans." Should contain yet more glimpses of new things from Season 4, set to debut on April 6th.
The Game of Thrones exhibition of previous seasons is making a come back for season 4, with some brand new exhibits included. Spanning three continents and six countries, starting January 27th in New York City. The full press release, and the list of dates and locations, can be found below:
Now that the trailer is out, it's no great surprise that HBO has started providing more material for fans to feast their eyes on. First up? A brand new entry in the "On the Set" series of videos, this one introducing season 4 to fans as it zooms about the four countries in which the past season was filmed, talks to executive producers and other key members of cast and crew alike, and gives us a few glimpses of some new locations and characters.
The video is embedded below:
Worldbuilders, the charitable organization founded by writer Patrick Rothfuss, is currently running a fundraising auction via Ebay, and there are a number of items that may be of interesting to fans of Game of Thrones, thanks to a number of replicas and busts donated by Valyrian Steel—official license holders to replicas of both A Song of Ice and Fire and Game of Thrones weapons and armor—to the effort. Some of the limited editions up for auction include Loras Tyrell's helm from the tourney scene in season 1 (probably the most beautiful single piece of armor created for the show to date), the Hound's helm, Robb Stark's sword, and a Stark man-at-arms shield.
Also of note, a hardcover copy of A Feast for Crows, signed by George R.R. Martin, and licensed Game of Thrones busts and statues made by Dark Horse.
Definitely worth checking out, as it's all for a good cause!
After the success of last year's book penned by writer and producer Bryan Cogman, it should be no surprise that HBO has announced a new book for Fall 2014 publication, written by Cat Taylor (assistant to the executive producers, and writer of the missives on the official Making Game of Thrones blog). It doesn't seem that it can be preordered on Amazon.com as yet, but below you'll find the details revealed in the press release:
Here it is, folks:
Lots and lots of dialog, glimpses of intriguing scenes… should be a bit of excitement for everyone! Season 4 premieres on April 6th.
We've begun to collect images from the video, with some commentary, starting here and moving on towards page 1.
The Westeros network consists of several different sites, including a forum and a wiki, for all your A Song of Ice and Fire needs.

Celebs Keep It Summery for Valentino Couture Show
Celebs Keep It Summery for Valentino Couture Show
After Friday's fancy dinner, Valentino's 45th Anniversary celebration continued on with the line's Fall 2007 Couture show. The runway show was full of luxurious gowns, but the celebs in attendance opted for more casual fare. I can't say I blame them -- it looks like it was pretty seriously sunny on the outdoor red carpet! At least SJP seems to have recovered from the curtain that tried to maim her the night before. Phew. And how cool does Elle look in her black dress and sunglasses. Valentino-ed out yet? We've got pictures of the big gala that topped off the weekend coming up later on! Yay!

yea FB, when I looked through the pictures I figured that the one picture where everyone indicats would be CZJ..but I just doesn't look like her. That's why I thought Laura Pausini, plus she's Italian so why wouldnt she be at Valentino..

a way to connect the dots. Making the cyber rounds is "The Cavernous Divide" by Scott Klinger, from AlterNet (posted March 21): "As the number of billionaires in the world expands, so does the number of those in poverty." Duh. The yawning income gap is not news. Nearly every issue of our quarterly digest carries a similar quote. Yet the connection was worked out long ago by one of America's greatest thinkers, Henry George, who labeled his masterpiece, Progress and Poverty. Techno- and socio-advances always enrich few and impoverish many. Yet progress also pushes up location values – the geonomic insight (is Silicon Valley cheaper now or more expensive?). Instead of taxing income, sales, or buildings, society could collect those values of sites, resources, EM spectrum, and ecosystem services via fees and dues, which would lower the income ceiling, and instead of lavishing corporate welfare, pay out the recovered revenue via dividends, which would jack up the income floor. Dots connected.
the Great Green Tax Shift maxed out" Economically, taxing pollution and depletion does reduce pollutants and extracts – and thus the tax base; plus such taxes are regressive, requiring a safety net. On the other hand, collecting site rent is progressive and generates a revenue surplus payable as a dividend to residents, which can serve as the safety net. Environmentally, taxes on waste and extraction do not drive efficient use of land, as does getting site rent. Better settlement patterns do reduce extraction upstream and pollution downstream. Politically, green fees have less impact if applied locally; local is where grassroots movements have more impact. Yet getting rent usually entails shifting the property tax (or charging user fees), the province of local jurisdictions; both mayors and city voters have been known to adopt a site-value tax. Ethically, putting into practice "tax bads, not goods" skirts the issue of sharing Mother Earth which collecting rent confronts head on. Since nothing is fixed until it's fixed right, ultimately, greens must lead humanity into geotopia where we all share the worth of Mother Earth.
about the money we spend on the nature we use. It flows torrentially yet invisibly, often submerged in the price of housing, food, fuel, and everything else. Flowing from the many to the few, natural rent distorts prices and rewards unjust and unsustainable choices. Redirected via dues and dividends to flow from each to all, "rent" payments would level the playing field and empower neighbors to shrink their workweek and expand their horizons. Modeled on nature's feedback loops, earlier proposals to redirect rent found favor with Paine, Tolstoy, and Einstein. Wherever tried, to the degree tried, redirecting rent worked. One of today's versions, the green tax shift, spreads out of Europe. Another, the Property Tax Shift, activists can win at the local level, building a world that works right for everyone.
one of many words I coined over 20 years ago: geoism, geonomics, geonomy, geocracy, etc – neologisms that later others came up with, too. CNBC once had a Geonomics Show, and Middlebury College has a Geonomics Institute. If "economy" is literally "management of the household", then geonomy is "management of the planet". The kind of management I had in mind is not what CNBC was thinking – top-down. My geonomics is not hands-on, interfering, but hands-off, organic. It'd strive to align policy with natural processes, similar to what holistic healing does in medicine, what organic farming does in agriculture. Geonomics attends to two key components: One, the crucial stuff to track is fat – or profit, especially profits without production, such as rent, or all the money we spend on the nature we use. Society's surplus is the sine qua non for growth, needed to counter death – not merely more, but sustainable development, more from less. Two, the basic process to respect is the feedback loop. These let nature maintain balance automatically and could do the same for markets, if we let them. Letting them would turn our economies, now our masters, into a geonomy, our servant, providing us with prosperity, eco-librium (to coin a term) and leisure, time off – a hostile environment for economan but a cradle for a loving and creative humanity.
close to the policy of the Garden Cities in England. Founded by Ebenezer Howard over a century ago, residents own the land in common and run the town as a business. Letchworth, the oldest of the model towns, serves residents grandly from bucketfuls of collected land rent (as does the Canadian Province of Alberta from oil royalty). A geonomic town would pay the rent to residents, letting them freely choose personalized services, and also ax taxes. Both geonomics and Howard were inspired by American proto-geonomist Henry George. The movement launched by Howard today in the UK advances the shift of taxes from buildings to locations. A recent report from the Town and Country Planning Association proposes this Property Tax Shift and their journal published research in the potential of land value taxation by Tony Vickers (Vol. 69, Part 5, 2000). (Thanks to James Robertson)
a manual. The world did not come without a way for people to prosper, and the planet to heal and stay well; that way is geonomics. Economies are part of the ecosystem. Both generate surpluses and follow self-regulating feedback loops. A cycle like the Law of Supply and Demand is one of the economy's on/off loops. Our spending for land and resources – things that nobody made and everybody needs – constitutes our society's surplus. Those profits without production (remember, nobody produced Earth) can become our commonwealth. To share it, we could pay land dues in to the public treasury (wouldn't oil companies love that?) and get rent dividends back, a la Alaska's oil dividend. Doing so let's us axe taxes and jettison subsidies. Taxes and subsidies distort price (the DNA of exchange), violate quid pro quo by benefiting the well-connected more than anyone else, reinforce hierarchy of state over citizen, and are costly to administer (you don't really need so much bureaucracy, do you?). Conversely, land dues motivate people to not waste sites, resources, and the ecosystem while rent dividends motivate people to not waste themselves. Receiving this income supplement – a Citizens Dividend – people can invest in their favorite technology or outgrow being "economan" and shrink their overbearing workweek in order to enjoy more time with family, friends, community, and nature. Then in all that free time, maybe we could figure out just what we are here for.
the annoying habit of seeing the hand of land in almost all transactions. In geonomics we maintain the distinction between the items bearing exchange value that come into being via human effort — wealth — and those that don't — land. Keeping this distinction in the forefront makes it obvious that speculating in land drives sprawl, that hoarding land retards Third World development, that borrowing to buy land plus buildings engorges banks, that much so-called "interest" is quasi-rent, that the cost of land inflates faster than the price of produced goods and services, that over half of corporate profit is from real estate (Urban Land Institute, 1999). Summing up these analyses, geonomists offer a Grand Unifying Theory, that the flow of rent pulls all other indicators in its wake. Geonomics differs from economics as chemistry from alchemy, as astronomy from astrology.
the policy that the earth's natural patterns suggests. Use the eco-system's self-regulating feedback loops as a model. What then needs changing? Basically, the flow of money spent to own or use Earth (both sites and resources) must visit each of us. Our agent, government, exists to collect this natural rent via fees and to disburse the collected revenue via dividends. Doing this, we could forgo taxes on homes and earnings and subsidies of either the needy or the greedy. For more, see our web site, our pamphlet of the title above, or any of our other lit pieces; ask for our literature list.
a discipline that, compared to economics, is as obscure as Warren Buffett's investment strategy, compared to conventional investment theory, about which Buffett said, "You couldn't advance in a finance department in this country unless you taught that the world was flat." (The New York Times, Oct 29). The writer wondered, "But why? If it works, why don't more investors use it?" Good question. Geonomics works, too. Every place that has used it has prospered while conserving resources. Yet it remains off the radar of many wanna-be reformers. Gradually, tho', that's changing. More are becoming aware of what geonomics studies – all the money we spend on the nature we use. Geonomics (1) as an alternative worldview to the anthropocentric, sees human economies as part of the embracing ecosystem with natural feedback loops seeking balance in both systems. (2) As an alternative to worker vs. investor, it sees our need for sites and resources making those who own land into landlords. (3)As an alternative to economics, it tracks the trillions of "rent" as it drives the "housing" bubble and all other indicators. And (4) as an alternative to left or right, it suggests we not tax ourselves then subsidize our favorites but recover and share society's surplus, paying in land dues and getting back "rent" dividends, a la Alaska's oil dividend. Letting rent go to the wrong pockets wreaks havoc, while redirecting it to everyone would solve our economic ills and the ills downstream from them. People must learn to stop whining so much and feel enough self-esteem to demand a fair share of rent, society's surplus, the commonwealth.
a neologism for sharing "rent" or "social surplus" – the money we spend on the nature we use. When we buy land, such as the land beneath a home, we typically pay the wrong person – the homeowner. Instead, since land cost us nothing to make and is the common heri-tage of us all, rather than pay the owner, we should pay ourselves, our neighbors, our community. That is, we should all pay land dues to the public treasury, then our government would pay us land dividends from this collected revenue. It's similar to the Alaska oil dividend, almost $2,000 last year. Indeed, the annual rental value of land, oil, all other natural resources, including the broadcast spectrum and other government-granted permits such as corporate charters, totals several trillion dollars each year. It's so much that some could be spent on basic social services, the rest parceled out as a divi-dend, as Tom Paine suggested, and taxes (except any on natural rents) could be abolished, as Thomas Jeffer-son suggested. Were we sharing Earth by sharing her worth, territorial disputes would be fewer, less intense, and more resolvable.

Designer of the Week: Monique Lhuillier
She's dressed Reese Witherspoon and Carrie Underwood for their weddings—and you could be next.
Two of the newest gowns from Monique Lhuillier. All photographs courtesy of Monique Lhuillier
Monique Lhuillier is known for creating gowns that feature both classic and trendsetting elements.
