Burnham & Co. in 1906, and ending with a 1961 addition by Holabird and Root.

The embellished storefronts, newly restored decorative cornice, and ornate columns capitals on the interior all bear Sullivan's personal style of ornament. It was both named a Chicago Landmark and listed in the National Register in 1970. It was named a National Historic Landmark in 1975.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Maggie!
Facts about Maggie
- Breed: Chihuahua Mix
- Color: Gray/Silver/Salt & Pepper - With White
- Age: Puppy
- Size: Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
- Sex: Female
Maggie's Info...
I am already spayed, up to date with shots, and good with dogs.
"MAGGIE is an adorable tiny Chihuahua mix puppy that is about a year old. We found her sitting with her cage mate, Sadie, at the West Side animal control, they were both very scared . I think they knew their time was getting close with the Euthanasia needle. Maggie is very sweet and would love to be in a permanent home where she could feel secure and sit on their master's lap and be loved. Maggie has all of her shots, are spayed, and micro-chipped.
Other Pets at Against All Odds Foundation
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Maggie, a Gilbert Chihuahua puppy was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Chihuahua for sale in Gilbert, or seeking a Chihuahua puppy from a breeder in Gilbert.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Gilbert already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Gilbert breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Chihuahua breeders who help with Chihuahua rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Gilbert paves the way for another one to be saved.

Grammy nominations show was a ladies' night
Beyoncé and Taylor Swift scoop up 18 nominations between them, but Whitney Houston is a surprising absence.
Danny Moloshok/Reuters
Los Angeles
It was ladies' night at the 52nd Grammy Awards nominations show Wednesday evening. This is the second year in a row that the Grammy nominations have been presented at a live event in downtown Los Angeles. Once again, the list of acts being honored skewed heavily to the young female, pop artist, leading off with Beyoncé Knowles who received 10 nods, followed closely by 19-year-old country music crossover phenom Taylor Swift who earned eight.
Behind those marquee names, a string of tried-and-true acts lined up for their work (the nominations honor work recorded from Oct. 1, 2008, to Aug. 31, 2009). The Black Eyed Peas, Maxwell, and Kanye West landed six each; David Guetta, Jay-Z, and Lady Gaga earned five each; and Colbie Caillat, Michael Giacchino, Kings of Leon, John Newton, RedOne, Bruce Springsteen, T-Pain, and Keith Urban each took in four nominations, while rock icon Neil Young was tapped in two categories: "Best Solo Rock Vocal Performance," and his Archives Vol. 1 (1963-1972) was nominated for "Best Boxed or Special Limited Edition Package."

Joe Christensen covered Major League Baseball for 15 years, including three seasons at the Baltimore Sun and eight at the Star Tribune, before switching to the college football beat. He's a Faribault, Minn., native who graduated from the University of Minnesota in 1996. He covered Jim Wacker's Gophers for the Minnesota Daily and also wrote about USC, UCLA and the Rose Bowl for the Riverside Press-Enterprise before getting this chance to cover football again.
Email Joe to talk about the Gophers.
With the season opener coming Thursday, the Gophers pushed up Coach Jerry Kill's weekly press conference to Saturday. Some quick highlights:
The competition for the No. 2 quarterback spot behind Mitch Leidner has been settled, with Chris Streveler getting the nod over fellow redshirt freshman Conor Rhoda.
"There is no question Chris Streveler is our number two quarterback," Kill said.
Streveler struggled in the team's scrimmage Aug. 9 at TCF Bank Stadium, but coaches described that as a blip for him in an otherwise strong camp.
Kill said sophomore wide receiver Donovahn Jones had a good camp and is playing the best he's played. "But I have to tell you," Kill said, "the guy that's had the best camp is KJ Maye, without a doubt."
Maye was slowed by a sports hernia injury last year and managed just seven receptions for 70 yards.
"He's a great player," Leidner said. "All through camp, he's been 100 percent, full speed, the whole time. And I'm just really excited to see him break out this season and have a good year."
With Mitch Leidner entrenched as the No. 1 quarterback, the main QB intrigue in Gophers camp involves his backups.
Redshirt freshman Chris Streveler is the No. 2 starter. Will he be ready if Leidner gets injured? If not, next in line is Conor Rhoda, another redshirt freshman who walked on out of Cretin-Derham Hall.
Streveler, from Crystal Lake, Ill., has had up-and-down moments through the first week of practice, but he delivered the biggest offensive highlight Wednesday.
Streveler hit wide receiver Logan Hutton in stride on a skinny post for a 28-yard touchdown pass. For the celebration, Streveler ran to the end zone and jumped all over Hutton.
"Coach Kill always talks about having juice, so that was fun," Streveler said. "It's always fun to make a big play in practice. It was the first live period [of camp], so it was pretty sweet."
Quarterbacks coach Jim Zebrowski said Streveler "sometimes plays better when he's ticked."
"I ripped him a little bit [Tuesday], and he just went crazy, [completing] throw after throw," Zebrowski said. "He wants the ball on the next play."
The rest of the field
Here are some quick thoughts from Zebrowski on the other Gophers quarterbacks besides Leidner and Streveler:
* On Rhoda: "Conor has a really, really strong arm and can stay in the pocket. And he's really, really smart and can make some plays too. He can put the ball in some places some other kids can't."
* On Dimonic Roden-McKinzy (true freshman from Kansas City): "Kids just figure things out at different times. And for Dimonic, it's taken him a while because things are going [fast], and him being shorter, he's got to Russell Wilson some things. He's got to really be perfect with his drop, really find gaps. He's a good athlete, but he's got to find gaps like Russell does and make things happen. For him, the curve is a little bit higher or longer. It's going to take him a while to pick things up.
* On Jacques Perra (true freshman walk-on from Roseville): "He had some opportunities [to play elsewhere] and decided to come here. He's a really good player. Quick release, accurate, smart kid. He's really good. He's done a really good job. He's smart, and he picks things up really, really fast."
Camp round up
* University President Eric Kaler stopped by to watch practice, wearing a gold Minnesota hat.
* Several true freshmen got chances to show their stuff during the end-of-practice scrimmage. Defensive tackle Steven Richardson got a chance to go against the first-team offense and appeared to fill his gaps very well. He's a shorter guy but weighs 291 pounds and looks like he'll be a factor. ... Cornerback Craig James delivered a huge hit to wide receiver Melvin Holland, Jr. .. Josh Parks, a walk-on running back from Chisago Lakes, also had some impressive runs.
Gophers offensive coordinator Matt Limegrover met with the media after Sunday's practice and offered his assessment of quarterback Mitch Leidner. Some interesting stuff in here:
"He's going to have his ups and downs," Limegrover said. "Things aren't going to go right, and he's going to learn from it. The crazy thing is you hear so much about Mitch, you think he's a fifth-year senior, but he's just a redshirt sophomore. Every day he's still learning. But the guys have really taken to him."
And in what areas does Leidner need to improve?
"I think sometimes he's still trying too hard," Limegrover said. "When you get to the point where he's our guy, I think he wants to prove that that was the right decision each and every play. And what we're trying to convince him is, throwing it out of bounds every once in a while, throwing it at someone's feet, 2nd-and-10, or punting the football isn't the worst thing in the world. Trying to do too much and putting our defense in a bind because you get a pick at midfield or something, that's what we can't do."
Limegrover added: "Coach Kill's really changed. He's usually real hard on quarterbacks, and he understands that's what Mitch's mindset is. So he'll get on him whenever he's pressing too much, but letting him make a few mistakes and learning as he goes there."
CHICAGO – Each Big Ten team brought three players to Big Ten Media Days, so there are 42 players here at the Hilton Chicago, and Gophers quarterback Mitch Leidner is the only sophomore.
The Gophers also brought senior running back David Cobb and senior safety Cedric Thompson. They could have kept their sophomore starting quarterback home, as Penn State did with Christian Hackenberg and Nebraska did with Tommy Armstrong Jr.
But the Gophers have made no secret that they are looking to Leidner now as a team leader.
"I'm really honored to be going," Leidner said last week. "I'm really happy I get to represent Minnesota because I'm from here and I love this school more than anything.
"We're just going to go there – me, Cedric and Cobb – with a lot of class and put a good name out there for ourselves."
Big Ten Network will be airing each coach's press conference. Northwestern's Pat Fitzgerald is batting leadoff at 9:30 a.m, and Gophers coach Jerry Kill takes the podium at 11:15 a.m. After their time at the podium, each team has 30 minutes of media availability.
I'll check back later with updates.
One week before their annual spring game, the Gophers held their most extensive scrimmage of spring practice Saturday.
The defense dominated early, keeping the offense without a point for the first seven drives. But the Gophers started running their hurry-up offense, and converted several big plays.
Here were some notable highlights:
- Cedric Thompson made a terrific interception to halt the first drive.
- Ryan Santoso made field goals of 26 and 46 yards. Andrew Harte hit a 43-yard field goal, and those two combined to make every extra point. Those two are both redshirt freshmen.
- Mitch Leidner hit KJ Maye with a 50-yard touchdown pass.
- Donnell Kirkwood had rushes for 7, 8, 37, 9, 19 and 10 yards.
- Chris Streveler completed a 32-yard pass to Eric Carter
- Rodrick Williams had touchdown runs of 7 and 15 yards.
- Berkley Edwards had 49-yard touchdown run.
- Logan Hutton made a big diving catch on a throw by Conor Rhoda.
- Leidner added a 29-yard touchdown run.
For more perspective, noting which defense was on the field for each drive, etc., here's a summation from my play-by-play notes:
First-offense (Leidner at QB) vs. first defense
Cobb: 2 rushes, 16 yards.
Kirkwood: 1 rush, 7 yards
Last play: Leidner threw a pass for Plsek that got tipped, and Cedric Thompson intercepted it with an acrobatic play.

I've been to the Jordandal Cookhouse about every two weeks since it opened. The food is excellent, pretty much the best takeout you can get. My favorite is their Friday ribs special. The ribs are so tender with a good sauce that doesn't overwhelm the flavor. The mac and cheese with fried ring bologna is very good with a tangy cheese sauce. I have no idea how authentic their Banh Mi is but it's good and very spicy. They've got different specials every day and their facebook page will announce it. I highly recommend going there if you're near Verona. Just stay away from the Banh Mi if you can't handle spicy
(I thought this page could use a nice positive review since so many places have been closing lately. I really don't want to lose this place.)

The Best RTS Game Ever!!!
The Good
This game is NOTHING like Command and conquer. Its much better in every way.... the units of the two sides, the Arm and the Core are almost identical but each unit is designed excellently. It has proved better than C&C in many ways:The movements of each unit is realistic; far better than the animation you see in command and conquer...i.e u cant kill a unit when ur pointed in another direction.
The units will attack aircraft whether it is capable of destroying it or not instead of watching a Rapier Destroy its undefended base
The bigger and better units take large resources and time to build; Besides taking a long time to move/build/fire, preserving a sense of balance in the game. The Big bertha, though an incredibly powerful cannon with long range has many weaknesses like it is easily destroyed, it cant fire close range, it is VERY inaccurate.
The explosions and the ability to reclaim resources from destroyed units is awesome.
The Bad
The only thing i can think of is that the unit sounds are a bit repetitious. But its the same in C&C right?
The Bottom Line
This game is NOT for players who would rather sit in a corner and build and build and build.....until he finally feels ready to attack and destroy. attack early and effectively and u will have an advantage. attack at different points on the base, ensuring that the enemy cant build stronger weapons like the Big Bertha/Intimidator or the retaliator/silencer which will probably send your commander to kingdom come.Buy Total Annihilation

Seattle Archdiocese stands by school official's dismissal
Catholics protesting the departure of Mark Zmuda, a popular teacher, coach and vice principal, also turned in a petition to Eastside Catholic High School and the archdiocese on Wednesday.
The petitions turned in Wednesday were gathered by Faithful America, a national Christian organization, which called on the archdiocese to reinstate Zmuda.
Another petition started on change.org by the senior class president has gathered more than 30,000 signatures since late December. It wants to change the Catholic Church's stance on gay marriage.
The archdiocese responded with a statement saying they stand by the decision to replace Zmuda.
"The recent personnel decision by the board and administrators of Eastside Catholic regarding Mr. Zmuda was made after a great deal of prayer and consultation," Archbishop J. Peter Sartain wrote. "In no way was their goal to be discriminatory to anyone but to be faithful to their mission as a Catholic school."
The school board of trustees wrote to parents detailing the events leading up to Zmuda's departure on Dec. 20 and invited them to attend a parent meeting next week.
The letter explains that all employees of the private school are required to sign an agreement that their public behaviors would at all times be consistent with the values and teachings of the Catholic Church. The church does not recognize gay marriage, the letter pointed out.
"When Mr. Zmuda married his same-sex partner, the school administration was left with no acceptable alternative that would allow him to remain eligible for employment at Eastside Catholic School," the letter to parents said.
Senior class president Bradley Strode, 17, of Bellevue, said the students want to effect change within the wider Catholic Church, with an ultimate goal of altering the Catholic Church's stance on gay marriage.
The student protest began as a sit-in at the school and has since spawned outside rallies both near the school and near the archdiocese in Seattle.
This had been Zmuda's first year as an administrator at the school with nearly 700 high school students and more than 250 middle school students in Sammamish, a Seattle suburb.
Another gay educator at Eastside Catholic, who recently announced she was engaged to her same-sex partner, said last week that the school had given her a new employment agreement as an independent contractor.
Stephanie Merrow, a part-time musical coach who is choreographing this year's spring musical, was told by school administrators that her marital status does not matter. She said her contract did not mention Catholic teachings.

Mission Possible: Tackling Mobility, Safety, and Environmental Concerns to Create Safer Commutes
Michael Pack is being honored as a Champion of Change for his efforts as a leader in transportation.
I often struggle to explain to friends and family what I do in my transportation research job at the University of Maryland. Those who have seen Mission Impossible III might recall that Tom Cruise plays a secret agent whose cover story is that he's a transportation engineer for the Virginia Department of Transportation. His dual identity is foolproof. His ramblings on traffic theory inevitably put everyone to sleep 10 seconds into any discussion about his work, immediately halting any additional questions or probing. My struggles with describing this line of work aren't with the perception of transportation research as a snoozefest. My challenge is that this field is so broad and far-reaching that I have difficulty getting people out of the mindset that transportation is only about bridges and traffic signals.
Transportation is the backbone of our civilization and the reason for our economic prosperity for the past fifty-plus years. However, there are major challenges facing us today. In Washington, D.C., my home, it's estimated that congestion alone costs over $2.7 billion annually, including 134 million hours of wasted time stuck in traffic and ninety-one million gallons of excess gasoline consumed. Nearly half of this congestion is due to crashes, disabled vehicles, and weather-related hazards. This preventable and manageable congestion costs individual motorists time and money, reduces the region's economic competitiveness, and decreases air quality by increasing vehicle idling time and emissions. If that weren't enough, approximately 40,000 people die, 2.5 million people are injured, and over four million are involved in property-damaging crashes annually in the U.S. Getting into an automobile is the most dangerous activity most of us do every day.
Since my graduation, my objective has been to help improve traffic and safety on our nation's roadways, not simply by building bigger roads, but by making better use of what we already have through intelligent transportation systems. I view it as my responsibility to ensure that the declining funding for transportation investments are spent wisely on solutions that make our roads (and the people that drive on them) smarter and safer by leveraging our existing infrastructure to its greatest potential. After all, those are my tax dollars, too.
Since 2002, I've been leading a talented young group of researchers and software developers at the University of Maryland to provide innovative web-based tools to Departments of Transportation (DOTs) and first responders. These tools allow public agencies to make better, more informed investment decisions through visualization and sharing of their own real-time data. This data includes things like incredibly detailed accident statistics, traffic congestion measurements, weather data, travel behavior, and other information related to the dispatch and actions of first responders. I spend countless hours working with state and local DOTs, transit agencies, and first responders to explain the benefits of opening their data up to one another and to the public—all of which can ultimately lead to less congestion, waste, better decisions, and fewer injuries on our roadways. Through the use of these visualization technologies, agencies can now answer tough questions that were previously unanswerable, make rapid decision on where to invest their limited dollars, provide better information to the public, and even speed up their response to life-threatening crashes.
I'm proud of the outreach, education, and visualization tools that I've brought to the transportation community. Let's continue to invest in solutions to tough mobility, safety, and environmental concerns while simultaneously making better use of our limited transportation funding. I hope that these efforts will shed light on the importance of transportation and the need to encourage young, talented minds to get involved in this industry. In doing so, I'm trying to make your everyday commute a little better, while also forcing Tom Cruise's character in Mission Impossible to choose a better disguise.
Michael Pack is the Director of the CATT Laboratory at the University of Maryland and the creative director of Regional Integrated Transportation Information System or RITIS.

Apple faces intense competition from Samsung and Chinese brands.

Cosmically Cool Lamp Built With 3d Laser Printing
Look at this beautiful Quin lamp from California artist Bathsheba Grossman. Notice anything special about it, D & D fans? It's Bathsheba's exploration on the dodecahedron. It's so much more than a twelve-sided die though.
The intricate perforations and curvy undulations are not only are a shining example of the seamless blending of technology and art, but also serve to create quite a spectacular display of light. Bathsheba is intrigued by the space between art and mathematics, and finds naturally recurring beauty in geometry as well as the new shapes that she creates.
Bathsheba enjoys working with technology and in this case has collaborated with Materialise's MGX to create this design using their Selective Layer Sintering (SLS) rapid prototyping technology. She frequently works in 3D printing and has also mastered a technique called subsurface laser damage in the creation of her intricate etched crystal sculptures.
Find the Quin lamp at Generate, and explore more sculpture with a highly scientific point of view on Bathsheba's website.

Comments (2):
that is a seriously cool lamp.
I definitely agree, very cool.
I love its unique look and the pattern that it casts upon the walls of the room. The artists has some interesting pieces on his site, but this lamp is definitely my favorite!

Got a lot of data? Finding your PC a little cramped when it comes to free space? Would a Seagate 8TB hard drive help?
As for the outlook, Intel projected revenue of $14.7 billion, give or take $500 million with gross margins of about 64 percent. Wall Street was expecting fourth quarter revenue of $14.5 billion.
It's the first of the month, which means it's time for another look at the state of the PC and mobile markets, using the latest data from two large web analytics firms.
24/7 Tech Service: Free PC tune up, support agent & online data backup
Intel's fourth quarter gave fodder to everyone from skeptics to optimists. The chip maker delivered a mixed bag and sees more of the same for 2014.
Nero BackItUp offers 4x local automatic backup (to hard disks, external storage, CD/DVD/Blu-ray and NAS) and your very own personal...
It looks like PC owners are finally beginning to relax their grip on Windows XP. According to new worldwide usage share data, XP is down sharply, with Microsoft's two fully supported operating systems, Windows 7 and 8, picking up the slack.
Citrix is merging its Branch Repeater, which delivers PC applications to virtual desktops with CloudBridge, which connects to Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure and data centers.

A new report from Soluto uses data from its massive online database of PC crashes, hangs, and performance metrics to identify the 10 most reliable Windows PCs you can buy today. Surprisingly, a MacBook Pro is at the top of the list. Even more surprising is who's not included.
South Korean chipmaker notches a 2 percent quarter-to-quarter increase to 2.78 trillion won from increased demand for PC and server DRAM for data centers.
CEO Paul Otellini said in a release that the company performed well "amidst market softness" that translated to revenue declines in its PC and data center groups.
Last week, Gartner released a report that had tech bloggers falling over themselves to declare Microsoft obsolete and the PC dead. Two problems. First, it's Gartner. And second, a closer look at the data paints a surprisingly rosy picture for Microsoft.
Microsoft's Surface Pro, which the company officially calls "a powerful PC in tablet form," went on sale today. On its website, Microsoft has officially disclosed how much data storage space you can expect to get from each model. Good luck translating the numbers.
A new slice of data highlights the incredible diversity of the PC ecosystem. Thousands of unique PC models are running Windows 8 and RT. What does it mean that the top slots on the sales charts are dominated by cheap, generic Windows notebooks?
Headlines scream the mainframe is dead, the midrange system is dead or the PC is dead. The data center reality, however, is that useful technology doesn't die. It just becomes the foundation for the next wave of technology adoption.
By business unit, Intel's results were mixed. PC client, data center and other products all fell compared to a year ago.
The increasing use of smartphones and tablets for personal computing tasks is leading users to put a "personal cloud" at the centre of their digital lives, according to Gartner Inc. Where once they would have centralised their data on a PC, probably by synchronising with Microsoft Outlook, they will increasingly synchronise their data using cloud-based services.
Turn the current security model on its head.
Major PC manufacturers are preparing Thunderbolt-supported motherboards, notebooks and desktops for April 2012, according to sources who have spoken to Digitimes.Apple, to date, is the only major computer manufacturer to have rolled out Intel's next-generation data transfer technology on its devices.
PC market share data takes on a little more importance as HP evaluates whether to spin off its personal systems unit. Lenovo and Apple surge.
If you assume that there's a post-PC era about to get started, Intel's data center business will become even more important because it's the only sure bet the chip giant has.

"Nice flat site with reasonable facilities including a small play…"
Nice flat site with reasonable facilities including a small play area but the owners attitude is disgraceful - swearing profusely in front of our three year old and making us move our tent two hours after we'd pitched it as they claimed we hadn't pitched it where they told us to (we had followed their instructions exactly!).
There is also a road running beside the site which is extremely noisy.
We shall not be returning to this site.Read moreLess2 people found this review helpful.
