Top 10 Pizza Places In Chicago of 2012
Chicago is known for many things: towering skyscrapers, gorgeous lakefront, Al Capone, sometimes questionable politicians, and of course, food. Chicago offers some of the best eats in the country, especially when it comes to pizza. There's no other place in the world that dishes out more delicious, gooey, cheesy, mouth-watering Chicago-style pizza pie. Although there are literally thousands of pizza joints throughout the Chicagoland area, some are just plain better than others for a variety of reasons. If you're ever in the Windy City or even if you already live here, and are looking to experience a true amazing, out of this world, Chicago-style pizza, here's a list of my top 10 favorites that are guaranteed to satisfy your pizza-craving palate.
The List: Top 10 Pizza Places In Chicago
#1 Pizzaria Uno
The creator the Chicago-style pizza, also known as "deep dish" back in 1943. Their thick buttery crust, chunky tomato sauce, and loads of cheese are to die for!
#2 Giordano's
Giordano's has over 40 restaurants in the area. They have been serving up some of the cheesiest, doughiest, and sauciest deep dish pizza in the city for nearly 40 years.
#3 Lou Malnati's
The sauce is a little thinner than your typical Chicago-style pizza, however if anything, it allows for the flavor of the ingredients to pop. You can enjoy Lou Malnati's pizza anywhere, as they will ship anywhere in the U.S.!
#4 Connie's Pizza
Connie's Pizza is the official pizza of the Chicago, Blackhawks, Bulls, and the Fire, but you don't have to go to the stadium to enjoy their delicious, extra cheesy pies. With five area locations, you can dig in anytime.
#5 Fox's Restaurant & Pub
Fox's offers one of my favorite thin crust pizzas in the city. The tasty sauce, topped with a generous amount of fresh ingredients and gooey cheese is incredible; makes my mouth water just thinking about it.
#6 Bacino's
Bacino's serves up a chunkier sauce than most. Pizza doesn't have to be as fattening as you would think. Their "heart healthy" stuffed spinach pizza was the first to be officially recognized by the Chicago Heart Association.
#7 Gino's East
Gino's is a legend in Chicago. It's an excellent choice if you're looking for a night out with friends, family, or that special someone.
#8 Nancy's Pizza
Nancy's has been voted "Chicago's Best Pizza" over and over again. Which, considering how many pizza joints there are in Chicago, is not an easy thing to achieve. They use only the freshest and highest quality ingredients.
#9 Pizano's Pizza
Pizano's is not only one of my top choices; Oprah has also stated that this was her favorite pizza in Chicago. I recommend "Rudy's Choice" which is a traditional deep-dish pizza stuffed with cheese, onion, mushroom, and green pepper, topped with a tasty sauce.
#10 Chicago Pizza And Oven Grinder Co.
Oven Grinder's offers something unique. Try their single-serving pizza pot pies "made from scratch" with triple-raised Sicilian bread-type dough, a homemade sauce consisting of fresh garlic, whole plum tomatoes, olive oil, green peppers, onions, sausage, massive fresh mushrooms, and topped with a special blend of cheeses.
There's No Better Pizza than a Chicago-Style Stuffed Pizza
Take a trip to any of these well-known Chicago Pizza establishments and you will not be disappointed. Although many all over the world have tried to duplicate the food that our city is most known for, the only place to go for authentic Chicago-style pizza is right here in Chicago.

Seriously? Pequod's didn't even make the list? traveler, you have some traveling to do!
AlJune 27, 2012
Next time we're over in the Lincoln Park area or Morton Grove we'll try it out and report back! thanks for the heads up Kort!
rnwilisApril 22, 2014
+1 Pequod's for sure.
JamesOctober 13, 2012
I think you forgot the original Nik and Vito`s on Pulaski…
AdamJanuary 17, 2013
Giordano's is stuffed pizza NOT deep dish. There is a difference.
AlJanuary 17, 2013
Ah yes Adam, we have heard this argument before. We aren't going to argue with your logic at all… that's what is so great about our city!

Giordano's might be good but they sure are pricey!!!!!
AlMarch 20, 2013
I think they are pretty much in line with the other pizza places around Chicago – their deep dish rocks!
BrianJune 16, 2013
Lou's is the best! It is proven by the growth and expansion throughout the Chicago area. My vote is for Lou Malnati's.
KristyJuly 18, 2013
I'm so sick of Uno's always being on top of these lists. The only people I know that go there are tourists. Most that I talk to end up not liking it and are left thinking I don't know what the big fuss over Chicago pizza is about. Seriously, pass. I think Pequod's is a bit overrated but it definitely should be on this list.
anastasiaAugust 13, 2013
Have you ever been to Chicago?
m huntAugust 14, 2013
I'm an old timer, Vito and Nick's on Pulaski REALLY has the original old Chicago pizza beats them all. I couldn't believe you put Uno's first, that was the worst pizza I've ever had (maybe it was because it was take out and they forgot? to put tomato sauce on it, really, and I didn't have time to take it back) Back in the 50's it was thin crust and greasy, sooo good. The only time I had a deep dish back then was when an Italian friend of mine's (Melrose Park) mother-in-law made it. But to leave Vito and Nick's out, that's a sin. Not a fancy place but it is original.
Robert KuhnkeAugust 31, 2013
I will go with Lou Malnati's a taste of heaven awaits.

14.0": 14 inch display size is a mixture between the small formats of subnotebooks and the 15 inch standard display. The reason why so many people like displays with medium size is, that this size is not exhausting for the eyes, does not need too much energy and the laptops can be kept quite compact.» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.

B.A., M.A. Oxford University
Robert Delahunty grew up in New York City. He was educated by the Jesuit order at Regis High School in Manhattan and graduated summa cum laude from Columbia University in 1968. He was awarded a Kellett Fellowship to study at Oxford University, from which he obtained a B.A. with First Class honors in Classics in 1970 and a Bachelor of Philosophy degree in 1972. He then studied or taught philosophy in England, Scotland, and Canada until 1980, holding research and teaching positions at Oriel College, Oxford University, and a tenured teaching position at the University of Durham in the north of England. During that time he wrote his book Spinoza, which was published in 1985.
Delahunty returned to the United States in 1980 to study law at Harvard Law School, from which he graduated cum laude in 1983. He began legal practice at Sullivan & Cromwell in New York City, where he was an Associate in the Litigating Section from 1983 to 1986, working primarily on a major probate proceeding. He joined the Appellate Section of the Civil Rights Division of the U.S. Department of Justice in 1986, and began working for the Office of Legal Counsel in the Justice Department in 1989. He was Special Assistant to the Solicitor of Labor in 1991/1992, a Visiting Associate Professor of Law at the Columbus School of Law at the Catholic University of America in 1999/2000, and Deputy General Counsel at the White House Office of Homeland Security in 2002/2003.
He spent most of his legal career before joining the UST faculty, however, at the Office of Legal Counsel, where he was made Special Counsel and a member of the Senior Executive Service in 1992. His work and writing at the Office of Legal Counsel focused on the constitutional law of foreign relations, Presidential war powers, public international law, treaties, and immigration law. His usual clients included the Office of the Counsel to the President, the Office of the Legal Adviser to the National Security Council, the Office of Management & Budget, the Office of the Attorney General, and the Office of the Legal Adviser to the State Department. He was selected, on Attorney General Janet Reno's nomination, as an Atlantic Fellow in 1995/1996, enabling him to study and write on British and European asylum law at the Refugee Studies Centre at Oxford University.

Much of my scholarship has been concerned with considering alternatives to the United Nations Charter as the primary legal basis for world order. On the critical side, I have argued that the
charter suffers from irremediable flaws with respect to its provisions regulating the use of force. On the positive side, I have explored two such possibilities: a) a return to the unregulated, but
generally peaceful, world order of the period from 1815 to 1914, in which a concert of Great Powers informally maintained the peace and b) a policy of encouraging the growth of constitutional democracy, based on the "democratic peace" theory.
Upcoming: I'm writing an extensive, detailed work on the international law regulating the conduct of hostilities.

Property Tax
NMMC came into existence w.e.f. 1/1/1992. From which date provisions of the Bombay Provincial Municipal Corporations Act, 1949 became applicable to this Corporation. As per provisions of section 127 read with section 129 of the BPMC Act, 1949 all lands & building in the area of Municipal Corporation are subject to levy municipal property taxes. Property tax is charged on the rateable value of the property. Accordingly in order to assess the properties to municipal property taxes a survey of all the properties was carried out and rateable value was fixed w.e.f.1/1/1992. For the sake of assessment NMMC area is dived into following categories :
- CIDCO Plots
- 6 CIDCO Nodes.
- 44 Villages
- G.E.S. and
- MIDC area.
Prior to formation of NMMC there was no municipal council in this area only there were grampanchayats. As such there was no property tax in the areas - CIDCO Plots, CIDCO Nodes,. Only there was house tax charged by the erstwhile gram panchayats at 1% of capital value of the properties in village as well as MIDC area. There was a tax holiday in CIDCO developed nodes. Only they were paying Service Charges to CIDCO for specific services viz. water and sewerage.

by Krieger, Martin H.
Publisher:Indiana University Press
"This is a mind-altering bookit ought to carry some sort of warning, that you will never be the same again once you have read it.... This is an important and provocative book, timely and full of insight. Fail to read it, and you may miss out on the physics of the future." John Gribbin, New Scientist
"Krieger... excellently tells those in our human society outside the physics world how physicists think, plan, and go about understanding nature." Choice
"... an excellent book... innovative." Isis
"Krieger takes us into the world of the physicist, on a theoretically informed anthropological field trip." Contemporary Sociology
Krieger describes the ways physicists actually do their work, their motives, and their ways of making sense of the world so that outsiders can understand it. He focuses on the "factory" of Nature; the analysis of the world as a clockworks of comparatively dumb parts; a set of kinship rules that govern families of particles; the setting of a simple stage, a vacuum, on which something arises out of nothing; and the items that make up a physicists tool kit.

I enjoy the Goya products.. For an easy recipe.. look on the label of Goya Black Beans. I use some green pepper, onion - sauteed in olive oil till tender, 1 can black beans, 1 package of Goya Sazon seasoning and a touch of Goya Adobe seasoning. Simple and Awesome..
Perfectly okay black bean recipe.
19 Ratings
My favorite recipe! We eat this all the time. I would omit the sazon because of the MSG but other than that fantastic!
We really liked this dish. I paired it with grilled chicken rather than making it a main dish alone. The beans were very very flavorful, but I couldn't help myself...I did drain and rinse the beans. The liquid they're in just seems too gooey to me. I used buttered jasmine rice with the beans, and it was a meal we'll definitely repeat. Also I had to leave out the recaito because my husband and I both have those weird taste buds that make cilantro taste like soap. Nevertheless, the beans were still perfect for us. Thanks, Goya!
Nothing out of this world or rocking my socks off, but it was good paired with the (amazing) Goya fajita recipe. I am pretty sure this is a personal preference; usually my beans are mashed and refried! I may try making some black refried beans next time.
We leave out the olive oil to make a fat free beans and rice and use brown rice rather than white. Quick and easy alternative to boiling dried beans or using a slow cooker.
I didn't know what some of the ingredients were so I just skipped them and they tasted just fine. My five year old is a picky eater and he loves this.
Black Beans & Rice Haiku: "I LOVE Goya stuff. Didn't have the Recaito, so used cilantro." I used just about all of the Goya products called for in the ingredient list other than the Recaito which I didn't have, so I tossed in a handful of chopped cilantro. Really great stuff - incredibly easy to put together and delicious over rice.
Pile it into a tomato half, load it into a wrap, or spread it on bread. Chicken salad does it all.
Broccoli salad makes a great side dish or a light main dish on a warm night.

Easy seasoned black beans and white rice, it's the perfect meal.
Watch how to make this easy, healthy dish.
You won't believe how simple this black bean side dish is. Enjoy!

IPO Frequently Asked Question(s) provide answers to commonly asked questions about IPOs in Indian Stock Market. This IPO FAQ Category helps IPO investors for their better understanding of IPOs and to resolve their quires.
We welcome you for your comments to improve answers of the questions asked in this category. Please feel free to post comments. We appreciate your participation in building this page simple, easy to understand, relevant and correct information provider to the Indian Investor Community.
If you don't find answer of your question, do not hesitate to ask our expert team by clicking 'Ask your question' link on the top of this page.
<< Check out all FAQ's about IPO's
Introduced in July 2008, Applications Supported by Blocked Amount (ASBA) Process, is the alternative payment method (optional) for IPO application where the IPO bidding amount remains in investors account, but blocked by the bank until allotment is done.
This is an addition method of payment, available exclusively for retail individual investors through participatory banks (SCSB's).
The purpose of adding this new payment option is to reduce the turn around time for IPO Stock listing and to make the refund process faster.
Technically there is no refund process for this kind of payment option as only the required money for allocated shares is withdrawn from the investors account. Investor can use the remaining money as soon as the required money is withdrawn and the money gets unlock.
As companies cannot list there shares before completing the refund process, ASBA will reduce there load on refund process and ultimately will make the listing process faster.
ICICIDirect Says:
ASBA stands for "Applications Supported by Blocked Accounts". At the time of bidding, invesrtors account is blocked to the extent of the bid amount and debited only at the time of allotment. This facility is being offered by ICICIDirect in affiliation with ICICI Bank Limited.
In other payment options, the bid amount is debited when investors bid application is placed with the stock exchanges. Under the ASBA process, the amount will be debited from your bank account to the extent of successful allotment at the time of allotment. Until such allotment, the amount will remain blocked in investors bank account. Bids placed once can not be revised, but they can be withdrawn while issue is open for subscription. As soon as the big get cancelled, money gets unlocked and available to the investor.
Following are the basic requirements for applying through ASBA payment mode:
Banks which are certified by SEBI, allow retail individual investor to apply in IPO's using ASBA payment method, are known as 'Self Certified Syndicate Banks (SCSBs)'.
SCSB's has capability to block the IPO Application amount until IPO allotments are done. SCSB guarantee the Issuer Company for the blocked money and make sure that it's not being used for any other purpose.
Bids can be submitted online through internet banking websites or by visiting the branch office of the bank. All branches of the bank may not participate in ASBA process. Visit your local branch to see if it has ASBA facility to apply in IPO's.
Once receiving the IPO Application from an investor, SCSB's sends the bidding information to BSE/NSE electronically.
After allotment, Issue Company or the registrar of the IPO withdraw the required money from the bank account and unlock the remaining amount for investor to use immediately.
On August 28, 2008 SEBI approved Corporation Bank, Union Bank of India and HDFC Bank as Self Certified Syndicate Banks (SCSBs).
Full list of banks approved by SEBI for ASBA IPO Payment Option. (Updated on Aug 04, 2009)
To apply in an IPO using ASBA payment method, an investor should have account with SCSB.
Even if your bank is listed as SCSB, only few of its branches may have ability to process IPO Applications with ASBA payment option. Please contact your nearest branch to check if they have this facility available.
Bank will need the money in investor's account at the time of placing the bid for IPO shares through ASBA payment option. SEBI has clearly instructed that banks will not accept IPO application before blocking the bidding amount (for ASBA process).
The amount will remain locked until registrar / stock exchange request bank to release the fund either because the investor didn't receive the allotment, IPO application got rejected or investor withdraw the IPO application.
No.In the current form of ASBA, retail individual investors can only apply at cut-off price to use ASBA payment option.
Yes.An investor can withdraw the application just like they do it in other payment options. Once withdraw, the blocked amount will be available in 1 working day.

The following is an archive of a post made to our
'vox mailing list'
by one of its subscribers.
I downloaded the RealAudio archive of Dr. Andy's show this past Wednesday,
cut out everything before his interview with Seth Schoen of the EFF,
and converted it to a mono, slightly lower quality MP3.
I've placed it on my own personal FTP site... I don't actually have the
disk quota to keep it there forever, but I should have sufficient bandwidth
to host the file for a while. The file is about 8.5MB in size.
As I mentioned last night, the RealAudio is up at KDVS's FTP site.
It will remain there until it gets replaced during Dr. Andy's next show,
next week. That file is the ENTIRE show, and is about 14MB in size.
If anyone's got big pipes and lots of space, and willing to archive this MP3
(and some of LUGOD's other large media; mostly other Dr. Andy recordings :^) ),
please let me know.
In the meantime, enjoy!
If you don't care about the audio, but just want the _content_, then by all
means check out the text-only transcript of the interview that I typed up
last night:

Two Orchids, Brassia Lanceana, Cattleya Labiata
Hays made regular sketching excursions to the American forests and frontier, but he did not have to travel far to find the exotic specimens depicted here since orchids were cultivated in greenhouses in his hometown, New York City. The artist began with pencil drawings—still visible in some areas—and then completed the plant forms in oil paint. These studies were among many he made in preparation for his large, highly detailed painting Bouquet of Orchids, 1871 (Private collection).

Prickly Pear or Nopal
the Texas Country Reporter aired a segment that was taped here
at Rancho Lomitas. Since that time, Benito has received
numerous requests for information regarding some of the plants
mentioned during the segment. Most of the requests have
been for information about the Texas prickly pear or nopal, as
it is called in Spanish. You can usually find nopalitos (tender
young nopal) in both the produce section and the Mexican food
section of local grocery stores. Nopalitos are usually sold
fresh in small plastic bags although occasionally whole single
leaves are available. Canned nopalitos can be found in the
Mexican food section. The cactus grows wild in most parts
of Texas as well as in other states and in Mexico. You can
mix the tender nopalitos in salads or serve them as a side dish.
They can be eaten fresh, boiled, sautéed, roasted, and fried.
Recipes abound for using nopalitos and tunas (the fruit of the
prickly pear). Some of our favorite cookbooks featuring
recipes using nopalitos as well as interesting facts about the
prickly pear are The Art of Cooking with Cactus presented
by the Texas Cactus Council, Cactus Cook Book compiled by
Joyce L. Tate and published by the Cactus and Succulent Society
of America, The Prickly Pear Cookbook by Carolyn
Neithammer, and Mesquite Country published by the Hidalgo
County Historical Museum. If you want to find out
more information about prickly pear and the research being done
in connection with prickly pear and diabetes, there is a wealth
of information available on the internet. Just search for
"prickly pear" or nopalitos and diabetes. You will
find many studies done with nopalitos related to both diabetes
and cholesterol and also many recipes on how to prepare
delicious meals using nopalitos.
Amargoso or Allthorn Goat-Bush
plant Benito covered in the segment
aired on the Texas Country
Reporter was amargoso or allthorn goat-bush as it is known by
its English common name. In Mexico, amargosa is
called besberinda. Amargoso was used and continues to be
used as a treatment for amoebic dysentery. Amargoso is not
available in stores, but it grows wild in much of Texas.
Someone from the Soil Conservation Service in your area should
be able to tell you if it grows in your area and assist you to
identify the plant. You can also search for information about
amargoso on the internet. The scientific name is
Castela texana. You can make a tea from the twigs and
leaves using about one hand full of twigs and leaves to 3 cups
of water. (Don't use the berries as the tea may be too bitter
to drink.) Bring the twigs, leaves, and water to a boil
and simmer about 10 minutes. Let the tea cool and drink it
fast since it has a very bitter taste. This should be repeated
3 times a day for 3 days. It will paralyze the amoebas and
allow them to pass from your system.
A Word
of Caution
You should
never eat or drink anything harvested from the wild unless you
are certain of the identification of the plant. Many wild
plants, including the stems, leaves, and berries, are poisonous
and some can cause paralysis or death.
You should
also consult with your doctor prior to using alternative
treatments for any disease or illness.
A Word
of Thanks
would like to thank everyone who has contacted him with
questions, comments, and support. A special thanks to the
Texas Country Reporter for a wonderful segment.
Hope all goes well

Apple's retail vision is to bring 'surprise and delight' to every Apple customer
Apple Senior VP of Retail and Online Stores Angela Ahrendts had recently sent out her first memo to retail employees, outlining Apple's vision for retail ahead while also asking for employee feedback to improve the experience in stores.
"Looking forward to the future, I feel our greatest opportunity will be continuing to focus on and evolve the consumer journey online and in our stores," Ahrendts said. "Although technology is rapidly changing how customers shop, they will still want to feel surprised and delighted by the personalized Apple experience we provide at every turn." This shouldn't come as a surprise given Apple's late CEO Steve Jobs had considered Apple to be at the intersection of technology and the humanities.
"That's what makes us unique. Keeping the customer experience as simple as any other Apple product will also be critical as we expand into new markets, integrate our platforms, and develop new technologies."
What changes do you want to see Ahrendts make to the Apple shopping experience? Are you happy buying your Apple products at an Apple store? Sound off in the comments.

Apple's retail vision is to bring 'surprise and delight' to every Apple customer
It's been a while but can you use your itunes account/ credit card to shop in the apple online store? Like easy pay in the retail store app?
Sent from the iMore App
I am excited to see what Ahrendts will bring to the table! With experience in luxury goods she understands the importance of the experience when it comes to purchasing. When you visit any high end retailer you are not paying only for the product, but for the entire experience that comes with it. I believe that Ahrendts will do this for Apple Retail and help Apple and enhance the Apple retail experience.
Ok, now let's bring down prices?
Sent from the iMore App
When I've shooed at Apple Stores in Southern California, they've been crowded and it took forever to get any service and these were at non-holiday-season experiences. It kind of sucked. It felt like being a zoo kind of and not like spending $1-2k in merchandise at Bloomingdales or something, although that was what I spent at the Apple Stores. :-(

PHP is a popular open source scripting language, but there's no convenient way to share the source of a live site. It's easy to make a publicly viewable copy of PHP scripts, but these copies are inevitably neglected when the live copy is updated. Source Browser is an attempt at solving this problem.
Source Browser should be usable on any PHP server simply by setting the directory that should be open source, and optionally any subdirectories that should be restricted. Point it at your server's root directory, restrict any confidential files, and you have a live open source website.
By default, only PHP and HTML source files are displayed, but any extensions can be specified. Default PHP syntax highlighting is also replaced by class names, to allow easy reformatting with CSS. Source Browser works as a standalone web application, but it can be easily integrated with any existing site. It's released under GPL.

26th June 2015 - Dan F was in Koh Samui, Gulf of Thailand with colleagues from NUS Geography and Zayed University, United Arab Emirates. We were measuring coral boulders that have washed up onto the shore. When coupled with Uranium/Thorium dating and hydrodynamic equations, these boulders can help us estimate the return period of extreme wave events such as typhoons.
19th June 2015 - Dan F recently travelled to the Pacific atoll of Ouvea, off the coast of New Caledonia. Dan joined an international team from the New Zealand Institute for Water and Atmosphere, the US Geological Survey, the University of Queensland and IRD to identify potential study sites to monitor mangrove vulnerability to sea level rise. Atolls may be at particular risk as they do not receive sediment from outside sources, which would otherwise help mangroves keep pace with sea level rise.
28th April 2015 - Dan F was in Chicago for the 2015 Association of American Geographers conference. Dan presented at the Presidential Plenary on the theme of 'radical intradisciplinarity', and gave a presentation on how to reconcile physical and human ecosystem services. The AAG is the largest geography conference, with over 9000 attendees.
25th March 2015 - Dan F and Ben were recently in Langkawi, Malaysia, where we were investigating mangrove vulnerability to sea level rise. This project utilizes the Rod Surface Elevation Table (RSET) method. This is a multi-national project sponsored by the Asian-Pacific Network for Global Change Research, and involves collaborators from Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines and Australia.
28th Feb 2015 - the Mangrove Lab were invited to write an opinion piece for the Straits TImes - Singapore's national newspaper.

23rd Aug 2013 - Dan was in Bali, helping conduct training for the USAID Workshop on Response of Mangrove Wetland to Sea Level Rise, organized by Frida Sidik, Cath Lovelock (University of Queensland) and Candy Feller (Smithsonian). 20 young Indonesian researchers conducted projects about forest structure, carbon stock assessment, invertebrate communities, mangrove restoration and remote sensing. A fascinating workshop with some great data presented!
4th Aug 2013 - WORKSHOP ANNOUNCEMENT
On the 31st of August Sivasothi and Dan are hosting a workshop on the last 50 years of research conducted at Mandai - a mangrove under threat in Singapore. Everything from biology, zoology, ecology, geography and management! Find out more and sign up here!
28th June 2013 - Dan spent a week in West Thailand along with Dr. Ziegler (see his lab here), Dr. Carl Grundy-Warr and ~40 students on the Geog Department's annual 6 week Field Studies course. We were looking at a range of coastal issues, such as tsunami escape routes and tsunami boulders in Khao Lak, and mangrove restoration and carbon/biomass measurements in Ranong!
15th May 2013 - Rachel and Dan were in Makassar, Sulawesi, Indonesia, checking out research field sites with the Mangrove Action Project - a great NGO promoting community-led natural mangrove regeneration. Along with staff and students from Universiti Hasanuddin, we will be creating digital elevation models of abandoned shrimp ponds and measuring the flooding tolerances of different mangrove species. Rachel will be using this information to predict where mangrove restoration will be most successful or where other measures are required. Makassar also fulfils another important research site criteria - it has great food!
3rd May 2013 - Valerie and Dan were in SW Thailand for a US Forest Service workshop on quantifying mangrove carbon. We worked with friends and colleagues from all over SE Asia, Papua New Guinea and the US, measuring trees and taking soil cores. Hopefully we'll see a lot more mangrove carbon stock assessments in our region over the coming months!
25th Apr 2013 - NEW PAPER IN NATURE CLIMATE CHANGE
"A global standard for monitoring coastal wetland vulnerability to accelerated sea level rise"
Wetland elevation is an often ignored piece of the jigsaw puzzle when it comes to monitoring coastal dynamics and sea level rise. We make the case for low-cost, effective regional monitoring networks using the Surface Elevation Table to monitor threatened wetland ecosystems and their response to rising sea levels. To access this paper drop us an email or click here!
3rd Mar 2013 - we just returned from Rajamangala University, Trang Province, Thailand, where Dan was running a graduate field methods module for Singaporean and Thai students. Tasks included mapping areas of mangrove colonization, studying coastal morphodynamics, hunting for buried tsunami deposits (left), learning about flooding events, and igneous geology! See the Photos page!
25th Jan 2013 - the Queen, Prince of Orange and Princess Maxima of The Netherlands, Ambassador Tommy Koh and a number of Singaporean and Dutch ministers visited the NUS Aquatic Science Centre today. Dan talked about mangroves, and particularly our research in Singapore and Thailand and its importance for understanding mangrove conservation and restoration in the region.
Dec 8th 2012 - we've just returned from the 1st ASEAN Congress on Mangrove Research, organized by the Philippines Govt. Department of Environment and Natural Resources. This workshop drew together top scientists, practitioners and policymakers from across the region. Dan presented on establishing a Philippines and ASEAN network for Sea Level Rise vulnerability monitoring. Watch this space!
Nov 29th 2012 - Rickson, Rachel and
Dan spent a week battling monkeys and the monsoon weather to take the first Surface
Elevation Table measurements in SW Thailand, which we first installed in
July-August. We'll be heading back there every 6 months for the next 5-10 years to see if the mangroves here are accreting or sinking, and whether the surrounding villages will be vulnerable to sea level rise.
Oct 14th 2012 - Dan will be speaking at a workshop on Weds 24th Oct - "Biological Approaches to Coastal Enhancement and Restoration" organised by NParks, Deltares and NUS. Dan will be talking about coastal research relevant to mangrove restoration, with experience from NGOs in the region. Register with Sally Teh firstname.lastname@example.com. Click here
Sept 14th 2012 - we just returned from Sheffield, UK for a workshop "Decentering Knowledge Production". We talked about biases in the global spread of mangrove research, which is currently centred in a handful of countries such as the US and Australia, and the implications of this for the management of mangroves in under-researched regions such as SE Asia and the Pacific islands.
Aug 15th 2012 - the Mangrove Lab just returned from 3 weeks of fieldwork in Trang Province, SW Thailand. We installed 24 Surface Elevation Tables to measure long-term changes in mangrove surface elevation. This information helps us estimate whether these mangroves are vulnerable to sea level rise. Sounds simple, but it means drilling solid steel rods into the bedrock - and that needs power tools! Click on the Photo Gallery page to see more!
Jul 16th 2012 - we were in Sri Lanka, attending the international MMM3 Meeting on Mangrove Ecology, Functioning and Management. This conference brings together researchers on topics as varied as remote sensing, gender issues, ecology and crabs! Dan gave two talks on "high-resolution mapping of mangrove topography and vegetation community structure" and "a global standardized network for monitoring mangrove vulnerability to sea level rise".
This is the lab page for Dr. Dan Friess, Assistant Professor in Geography, National University of Singapore.
We research the ecosystem services produced by coastal wetlands, the myriad of threats they face, their restoration, and the policies that affect their conservation.
We do research throughout Southeast Asia, including Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia, Myanmar, Philippines and Vietnam.
The Mangrove Lab is always on the look out for outstanding graduate students and postdoc researchers interested in mangrove science and coastal management.

I can understand it must be really really difficult to be gay in the kind of school you have described. I think it is horrible that your classmates tease anyone...

Okay, let's say you have this teenager who is gay. He's dating this girl, and been doing it for over a year, and only doing it to fit in as being straight. In this school, if you don't have a girlfriend, you get harassed and called queer. Well, now this teenager has hit a big dilemma. This girl wants to have sex, but he can't because he isn't attracted to her. What should he do? He really cares for her, but feels he is using her, and she is developing strong feelings for him. What to do? Should he "come out," or keep playing it off, finding some way to have sex with her?
— The Fake Straight Dude
Dear The Fake Straight Dude,
It's unfortunate that The Fake Straight Dude (FSD) lives in a world where he feels forced to pretend he's someone he's not. It's equally tragic, and understandable, that he fears he'll be hurt if he just lives his life. On the bright side, our friend the FSD seems to already have a good handle on the basics of who he is. Coming out is a personal decision and it may take a while for someone to decide what is right for her- or himself. Some people are surprised at the support that awaits them when they come out, and others are disappointed in the lack of support they receive. For now, staying a FSD — at least publicly — might be a workable option, even if it's not his first choice.
So, then, what about the girlfriend? The FSD does have options. Since not every guy is attracted to every girl, and vice-versa, perhaps the FSD could bring an end to his romance with this as the reason: He needs to concentrate on an internship, a job, clubs, sports, or whatever so that he wouldn't have time for a girlfriend (or so his classmates will think)? He might even get lucky and find new friends and partners in the process. He can also tell his girlfriend that he is not ready or has chosen not to have sex at this point; certainly a feeling many guys have, gay or straight. If he prefers to be more direct, he might say that the relationship is getting too intense. Or, if the FSD is feeling comfortable, courageous, and trusting of his girlfriend, he might tell her that he's attracted to men. Notice that among these options there's no suggestion to have sex with his girlfriend just because that's what's expected.
Is there anyone in the FSD's world who might get the way he feels, either because they feel/felt it themselves, or because they're tolerant and open? Having a trusted ally and expressing one's true self can help an FSD (or a Fake Straight Gal, for that matter) feel like s/he's living more for her- or himself than for others. These people might be nearby: friends, family, and again, even the girlfriend. They could be further away: a teacher, counselor, or community organization.
Here's info about gay-straight alliances, mentioned earlier:

Hey school administrators, parents, and local leaders: Do your institutions and communities have policies on harassment and violence? Are they enforced? Could they be stronger? How would you be graded on your educational efforts to deal with these problems? Fake Straight Dude, along with New Black Girl, Recent South Asian Immigrant, Religious Muslim Guy, The Overweight One, Lesbian Lass, Not-So-Good-At-Sports, Gal With Green Hair, Learning Disabled Dan, The Jew From Peru, and many others, aren't being the students they can be because they're distracted and consumed by fears of ridicule, threats of injury, and physical and psychological abuse itself. Does tolerance of, or inaction on, these everyday occurrences interfere with the health and learning of your children? Some programs and resources that address these issues can be found at the following organizations that advocate anti-violence in schools:

Prevention of School Violence

I can understand it must be really really difficult to be gay in the kind of school you have described. I think it is horrible that your classmates tease anyone without a girlfriend and that you feel you have to keep your sexuality a secret. However I really don't think it is fair to keep dating your girlfriend, unless you are seriously in love with her. It's up to you whether you tell her that you are gay, or just give her another reason, but I think you should break up with her as soon as possible. If you keep dating her you are allowing her to deepen her attachment to you, which is going to make it very hard for her to move on when she eventually finds out you don't have feelings for her after all. I'm sure you don't want to make it harder for her to trust men in the future. I'm sorry for you, because it is not an easy position to be in, but I think you owe it to her to break up with her. Best of luck!

Dear The Fake Straight Dude,
I feel sorry for you, but I don't think it would be right to be in a relationship you don't want to be in.
If you don't want to tell her that you're gay...
Dear The Fake Straight Dude,
I feel sorry for you, but I don't think it would be right to be in a relationship you don't want to be in.
If you don't want to tell her that you're gay, all I can think of right now is to break up with her. I know it is mean and doesn't sound right, but if you think about it, wouldn't it be more mean to be in the relationship as her love and passion for you grows, while you don't feel the same way?
Although the best thing would be to tell her you've been questioning your sexuality and found out you really are gay, you can still tell her that you still would like to be friends. If she doesn't want to be your friend afterward, then it's her loss, isn't it?
I'm not saying you have to do any of this... it's just what I think.

Maria Sharapova has pulled out of the Brisbane International tournament due to a collarbone injury, but said she will recover by the start of the Australian Open.
The number-two ranked world tennis star was set to play Australia's Jarmila Gajdosova in the second round, but inflammation had left her unable to serve properly.
"I started practicing once I got here but couldn't serve much actually at all until yesterday," the tournament's website quoted Sharapova as saying.
"Just a couple days of serving is not really enough to go out tomorrow and compete at a high level, which is unfortunate. I tried to give myself a chance, like I said, I just ran out of time a little bit," she said.
Speaking on her odds at the Australian Open, the Russian stressed that there is "still quite a bit of time to prepare."
"I'm on the right track, been training really well, so I just don't want to jeopardize what I've gained in the off-season so far," she said.
Sharapova's place in the tournament with a first-round bye has been given to Ukraine's Lesia Tsurenko.
