The Next Big Thing: Desmond Jennings
Sep 4, 2009, 2:56 PM EDT
Last week Rays outfield prospect Desmond Jennings was named MVP of the Double-A Southern League despite earning a promotion to Triple-A a month ago.
Last night, in his 29th game at Triple-A, Jennings tied an International League record by going 7-for-7 as the Durham Bulls clinched a playoff spot.
He had what baseball analysts typically refer to as a really awesome week.
Jennings was limited to just 24 games last season because of back and shoulder injuries, but the former 10th-round pick has bounced back in a huge way this year and is often compared to current Rays outfielder Carl Crawford.
It's easy to see why, because like Crawford he's a former standout football player who offers an amazing blend of physical tools that revolve around tremendous athleticism and blazing speed.
Jennings has hit .322 with 11 homers, 31 doubles, and 10 triples in 128 games between Double-A and Triple-A, swiping 52 bases while being caught just seven times. In a recent Baseball America managers poll he was named the Southern League's fastest baserunner, best baserunner, best defensive outfielder, and most exciting player, which certainly fits with the Crawford comparison.
One area where he has a leg up on Crawford is plate discipline and strike-zone control, as Jennings has an excellent 66/66 K/BB ratio in 563 plate appearances. By comparison, prior to this year Crawford had never drawn even 40 walks in any season, minors or majors. Any prospect whose ceiling can even optimistically be described as "Carl Crawford with plate discipline" has a chance to be a very special player.
- Alan - Sep 5, 2009 at 5:54 PM
Assuming Jennings is major-league ready — and it's hard to see a hole in his game — how do you suppose the Rays will align their outfield next year? Personally I'd love to see them go Crawford in left, Jennings in center and Upton in right (he certainly has the arm for it), with Joyce up as a fourth outfielder and lefty bat off the bench. Dunno how realistic it is that they'll ask Beej to move again, though.

Dunn then capped a fine afternoon by taking 6-40 as the visitors were fired out for 131.

- Hook Norton 4, Westbury 30

Conor Taylor was another with an excellent Saturday.

In a tight affair at Tetsworth, the hosts closed on 145-9, with Matt Bradford making 46.

- Tetsworth 28, Watlington 6
Half-centuries from Alistar Slay (61) and Julian Hillman (50) helped Clifton Hampden post an impressive 209-8.

Hanney paceman Douglas Hilliam claimed 5-39 at home to Steventon in Division 6.
The visitors were skittled for 98, James Hilliam also getting in on the act with 4-11 to add to his 55 in his Hanney's earlier 138-9 to claim a 40-run win.

An unbeaten 61 from Dave Hewes then got Risinghurst over the line for the loss of six wickets.
Steve Edwards (5-10) and Stephen Poole (4-17) starred with the ball for Kilkenny 2nd as Westcott 2nd were routed for 74 to claim a 66-run away win in their Division 10 clash.
Skipper Daniel Floyd, with an undefeated 61, had earlier guided Kilkenny to 140-8.
Alll three results were possible up to the last ball as hosts Chesterton 2nd edged out Sunningwell 2nd by two wickets in the Centenary Cup quarter-finals.
Chesterton's pair of captain Ami Mishra (62no) and Alan Phillips came together needing 39 runs from nine overs and scrambled home with a single off a wide.
JJ Smith (51) led Sunningwell to 160, which looked like being enough, despite Simon Morse taking 4-42.
Chesterton needed more than 100 at the half-way stage with only five wickets left and played out the penultimate over as a maiden, but still edged through.

Rocketman on MINI's "Christmas List"
What does MINI Head of Design Anders Warming want for Christmas? A production version of the MINI Rocketman concept for one thing. Warming told members of the UK Press Corp that the Rocketman was, "a clear leap forwards," and a car to "claim the true heritage of the brand" at the annual press dinner — this year about the new Roadster and other models. Warming went on to say "The Rocketman and Roadster are part of an ongoing dialogue with customers that asks, 'What can we do with Mini?' It's about making authentic movements and developing a relevant bandwidth for the brand."
Does that mean a production Rocketman is in the works? That remains to be seen. As much as we'd love to see it come to light, there's a lot of conflicting information out there and our sources keep pointing toward no. But is Anders' continuing narrative about the Rocketman a sign of future production consideration? We certainly hope so. In his remarks, Warming talked about "bandwidth" — about the breadth of MINI's product offerings and its expansion into other segments. The guiding concept is that MINI's "always the smallest car in the segment, has lightweight engineering and engines that are class-leading in terms of efficiency." Then going on to reaffirm MINI's focus, Warming reiterated that the regular MINI hardtop will "remain at the center of the brand."
There are a number of key challenges to bringing a car like the Rocketman to production. Its all carbon fiber chassis for one. A car like this, if it did come to market, would also be at a significant premium. Would MINI buyers be willing to shell out the cash on such a small car just to exercise their ideals of how small a MINI "ought" to be? While our sources say we can expect to see design elements such as the "halo" headlight rings in the next generation MINI Hardtop (the F56), that's a long way from seeing this stellar little concept in the cf flesh. Maybe if we're all really good next year Anders' Christmas wish will come true.

My closest girlfriend has been with this guy that makes her smile and laugh whilst making her over all just happy. They have been dating for 9 months. This is her first relationship that she wasnt used in so she treasures it to the max! but recently he moved away to play NRL for one of the big teams so its been long distance for around 2 months now. You can see that she misses him but if she texts him he will probly reply once if she is lucky and he hardly every returns her phone calls and she can never reach him , he uses the excuse that he is constantly busy with work and training and all that and i completely understand but is that just his excuse? . She knowns he wouldnt cheat on her or do any of that but she wonders now is it time to let go of him or does she just wait it out until he pulls himself together. I told her to try and make herself as unavalible to him as he makes himself to her but he hasnt text or anything yet ? What is the best advice i can give her now she is to good a person .

Workington pupils step back in time
Published at 13:54, Friday, 30 November 2012
Thirty youngsters from St Patrick's School in Workington dressed up as evacuees as part of a World War Two topic they are studying.
Year four pupils have been making gas masks, luggage labels and have bought and made 1940s-style clothing which they wore as part of a visit to the Beacon in Whitehaven.
They carried out role-playing exercises and took a tour of interactive displays at the museum.
The pupils have also been reading Goodnight Mr Tom, a novel about a young evacuee during the war.
They have been studying the topic for a full term with year four teachers Andrea Williamson and Jenna Pears as part of a history course.
Mrs Williamson said: "The aim is to make the children think about what it would have been like for evacuees who had to leave their families behind and go and live with strangers.
"Many of the children have talked about family members who were in the war and shared stories passed down to them."

Have your say
Oh,yes! Iwas a child of 6or7 years when the first evacuees came to Workington. One evening two or three small boys knocked on the door at 10, Calva Brow. (I wonder who lives there now?). I begged my mother to take them but she was just not able to do it!. It's hard to believe the covered bridge across the tracks at the station is still there. At that time my father was District Controller for the L.M.S. railway from Barrow-in-Furness all the way up the Cumberland coast and his office was on the platform where the group photo was taken. I well remember St. Patrick's and some of the teachers there. Happy memories of my growing up in Workington. We left in 1948.

Tori Spelling wants to "humiliate" Dean McDermott following cheating rumors.
The pair - who have been married for seven years - will hit the small screen in new series 'True Tori', which will document their relationship and the blonde beauty is said to still be "upset" about the scandal which rocked her marriage.
A source told People magazine: "The decision to do this show is not coming from someone who is in a solid, good place. Tori is very, very upset and angry.
"It's just too raw and personal. There's too much pain and it's too private.
"A part of her wants to completely humiliate him and make him suffer in front of millions of people. She wants to have some sort of justice. She wants him to truly feel the pain of what he did to her."
Tori is believed to be in "crisis mode" while Dean is battling his own problems that saw him recently endure a stint in rehab.
The source added: "[The series] was all Tori's idea.
"She's in a total crisis mode. If she can believe that his addiction has nothing to do with her, then maybe they can move on. But there's no way Dean wants to be humiliated on television for cheating on his wife. His life is basically a nightmare."
Tori and Dean - who have children Liam, eight, Stella, five, Hattie, three, and Finn, 19 months, together - seem to be working through their problems for the sake of their kids, but their relationship is not back on track.
Another source claimed: "They are focused on their kids.
"Tori doesn't consider her and Dean back together."
"Dean will do anything Tori says right now.
"And what better way to ensure that he will never cheat on her after this? I don't think he'd ever want to go through this again."

Arizona Cardinals
Cardinals CB Patrick Peterson wants to be 'one of the best'
When the Arizona Cardinals drafted Patrick Peterson with the fifth overall pick in the 2011 draft, they had high hopes for the younger cornerback.
Now nearing the end of his second season in the NFL, Peterson intends to live up to the hype and be one of the league's elite.
"I am trying to get to that point where I can be recognized in the league as one of the best corners in the game," Peterson said.
The former LSU Tiger was named to the NFC Pro Bowl team as a kick returner last season, but Peterson said he would really like to receive the honor as a "shutdown cornerback."
"Hopefully I can get that this year. I've got three more games to continue to prove myself," Peterson said. "Hopefully I can get this interception number up even higher so it won't be a second guess or anything else holding me back from getting into the Pro Bowl."
Cardinals defensive coordinator Ray Horton likes what he hears out of the young cornerback.
"I'm encouraging him to be bold and to be assertive," Horton said. "If he believes that and he wants to say it, I'm sure everybody else will try to cosign that check for him."
On Wednesday, Peterson said during a conference call he thinks he is "the best cornerback in the league right now."
Horton also said it is important for Peterson "to prove his elite status."
That chance will come on Sunday when Peterson will be asked to defend Detroit Lions star receiver Calvin Johnson, who has caught a touchdown pass in four of his last five games.
With 1,546 yards receiving, Johnson is only 303 yards short of Jerry Rice's single-season record.
"I believe it is definitely going to be a huge measuring stick for me," Peterson said. "Like I said yesterday (Thursday), statistically he is the number one receiver right now in the NFL."
Standing 6-foot-5 and weighing in at 236 pounds, Johnson is tough matchup for any cornerback, but Peterson doesn't seem fazed by his size.
"As far as Calvin, he likes the physicality of a cornerback coming up to the line of scrimmage and pressing him," Peterson said. "That is what I am going to do all game. Like I said, I am going to bring the fight to him."

The new Crystal Vision ARC-20MC is a high-performance bi-directional digital aspect ratio converter with features that make it suitable for any application.
The ARC-20MC offers quality conversion performance, as well as more SDI outputs than before and features designed for easy automation of the aspect ratio conversion, including full AFD support and the ability to change the aspect ratio live on air without picture disruption.
ARC-20MC saves the broadcast engineer time by providing presets for the six commonly used aspect ratio conversions between 4:3 and 16:9. Three of these conversions allow 16:9 sources to be shown on a 4:3 monitor with the geometry preserved (16:9 to 4:3 letterbox, 16:9 to 14:9 letterbox and 16:9 to 4:3 full screen), while the other three allow similar easy conversion of 4:3 to 16:9 (4:3 to 16:9 pillar box, 4:3 to 14:9 pillar box and 4:3 to 16:9 full screen).

Carlos Beltran out of Giants lineup with stomach illness
Sep 5, 2011, 3:15 PM EDT
Carlos Beltran was finally starting to produce for the Giants, collecting eight hits in his last three games, so naturally he's been scratched from today's lineup with what Andrew Baggarly of the San Jose Mercury News describes as "food poisoning/stomach ailment."
Henry Schulman of the San Francisco Chronicle called it "a gastric illness," so I think it's safe to say Beltran didn't have a very good morning.
Cody Ross shifted from left field to right field in Beltran's absence, with Brandon Belt making his 16th start in left field. Beltran has played well for San Francisco, hitting .318 with an .859 OPS that basically matches his career mark, but he's now missed 13 of the 36 games since the Giants gave up top prospect Zack Wheeler to get him from the Mets.

- Francisco (FC) - Sep 5, 2011 at 3:48 PM
Aaron was sitting at his desk, carefully setting up some wrapping paper and a box on his lap. Right on top of the desk he had a bobble-head figure: Carlos Beltran with a frown and a tag showing little stars streaming from his stomach. He was getting set to address the package to Matthew when Tiffany spoke up.
"Really Aaron," said Tiffany. "I get the ones you sent to Craig. But, this one, is that at all fair? Beltran has played well… when he's in the lineup."
"It's all in good fun. See look:" He adjusted his glasses and took up the figure showing it to Tiffany, and started imitating Beltran:
"Hi! I'm Carlos Beltran, I'm an aging Veteran looking for another shot at the post-season and I don't steal bases after my team is up 6 runs in the game. I'd love to play but my tummy hurts."
Unbeknownst to Aaron, pixie dust was forming behind him while he was giving his performance. Tiffany was no longer giving him an amused smile and instead a concerned frown and cutting motion with her hand across her neck. Too late.
Materializing from nowhere, Carlos Beltran snatched his bobble head figure from Aaron's hand and glared at him:
"Are you making fun of me!!?," Carlos demanded.
Still a little shell-shocked, Aaron nervously stammered: "Uh, No-no."
"Aren't you!!!??".
Aaron sighed dejectedly, hanging his head. "yes."
- citynative - Sep 5, 2011 at 7:22 PM
Simple logic…. if the Giants stink… yet they beat the Phillies last year in the playoffs and 3 out of 7 this year… what does that mean the Phillies are? Maybe the 08 championship was a fluke?

help with F2f OPK's
Started by Winning , Nov 15 2012 10:03 PM
6 replies to this topic
Posted 15 November 2012 - 10:03 PM
Hi Everyone,
I've recently come off the pill after quite a long time (so I don't even know what my natural cycles are!). We are TTC #1 - I am currently on cycle day 23 and have been doing OPKs daily since cycle day 13. I am using IC's - Fertility2Family.
I have not had a second line up until today. I tested both at lunch time and this evening and had a faint second line both times. It is nowhere near a 'positive' result but it is different to what I have been getting so I am hoping it is an indication that I am going to ovulate.
However, I have read about women who have gone off the pill only to have really erratic and long cycles. I have also read on here about women using IC's with varying and unreliable results. So here I am to seek clafication from EB!
If you start out with only one line, then start getting a second, does this mean that ovulation is due soon (within the next say 5 or 6 days)?
Any advice is welcome!
Posted 15 November 2012 - 10:08 PM
You will get a sign of a line, majority being light but when you get a line that is just as dark if not darker than your control line it means you will ovulate in 24-36 hours following your +ve OPK.
Posted 16 November 2012 - 08:19 AM
Someone asked a similar question last month. Here's the link:
I posted a pic of a positive OPK there so that should help you
Posted 16 November 2012 - 09:53 AM
I've used IC's Fertility2Family for years ... but recently got a bad batch and didn't show a single line!
So I've now switched to OvuPlan instead.
Posted 16 November 2012 - 04:34 PM
thanks for that!
Posted 16 November 2012 - 05:17 PM
Honeypumpkin, it took me 3 1/2 months to get my period after stopping the pill! My doc said it was uncommon to go that long, but not abnormal. After 3 months I had bloods and an ultrasound done to check all was okay. So while most women get their cycle back straight away, don't be too surprised if it takes longer than you think! (and yes I had a clockwork cycle before the pill)
I've been using the fertility2family OPKs on and off for a few months and I don't get a true positive on them. I get the faintest of faint lines for most of the month and then a darker line (but not positive) when I'm about to ovulate. I count that as a positive, for me. I've read that the OPKs detect LH at a certain level in the urine, but some women have a naturally lower LH surge that is still enough for them to ovulate. That's me!
I'm not sure if there are better brands out there - I'll need to get some more soon so I wanted to try another brand, but I'm not sure which one to try?
Posted 17 November 2012 - 05:31 AM
OP I went off the pill in July and I since bad quite long cycles .. 42,37 and 42 days. So while they are long, they are kind of regular I guess. I have no issues anticipating O with ICs. I do get feint lines prior to O but definitely dark when I do O

Forget the Dodd bill. Read about and listen to Richard Duncan, who several years ago predicted the collapse of the housing bubble. Now he wants to break up the big banks and turn them into utilities. Duncan, author of the new book, "The Corruption of Capitalism: A strategy to rebalance the global economy and restore sustainable growth," says the U.S. does not have a capitalist economy, but a "statist" economy.
Also watch CNBC's analysts, who have been wrong about everything since the beginning of time and were relentless cheerleaders for the stock market and housing bubbles, cover for the banks. Pathetic.

If I've missed anything important in a post I will hopefully discover it in the next day or so as I work though the 420 posts I have not read.

More accountability of TIF districts needed, Morrissey not the answer
In a recent call made to the Ken DeCoster show, a Rockford citizen asked Rockford Mayor Larry Morrissey (I) about a TIF project that his brother and father personally gained from off of Seventh Street. Morrissey dodged the question the caller made when he asked the mayor, "What happened to the money?" Morrissey claims the caller would have to talk to his father or brother about the project. My question is, "If Mayor Morrissey doesn't know what happened to $500,000 that his father and brother received by THE CITY, then what the hell is he doing as our mayor?"
There is no accountability to what happens to the TIF money that is being stolen by city coffers and being used to reinvest only on East State Street. All the while, West State Street has waited 30 years to get one major project on that side of town. I know a lot of west side people are pulling for Mayor Morrissey, but you are seeing the brunt of major economically deprived decisions that the mayor has made that are negatively affecting that side of town, particularly crime and redevelopment.
It's time for a change, Rockford. I want to be third on the list of most liked cities by Forbes. That will never happen under Morrissey's reign.

The neighbour of a convicted felon who ambushed firefighters on Christmas Eve, killing two, bought the guns for him and lied to the seller, knowing that he wasn't allowed to have them, authorities.
William Spengler had picked out the semiautomatic rifle and shotgun used in the ambush and went to the sporting goods store with the neighbour when she bought them for him, US Attorney William Hochul said.
The neighbour, Dawn Nguyen of Rochester, New York, was arrested Friday. She faces a federal charge of knowingly making a false statement for signing a form indicating she would be the legal owner of the guns, Hochul said.
She also was charged with a state count of filing a falsified business record, State Police Senior Investigator James Newell said. Shortly before her arrest, Nguyen told The Associated Press that she didn't want to talk about Spengler.
A number listed in the name of her lawyer, David Palmiere, was disconnected.
The charges stem from the purchase of an AR-15 semiautomatic rifle and a 12-gauge shotgun that Spengler had with him Monday when firefighters Michael Chiapperini and Tomasz Kaczowka were gunned down.
Three other people were wounded before the 62-year-old Spengler killed himself. He also had a .38-caliber revolver, but Nguyen is not connected to that gun, Newell said.
Police used the serial numbers on the rifle and shotgun, which were purchased on June 6, 2010, to trace them to Nguyen, Hochul said.
''She told the seller of these guns, Gander Mountain in Henrietta, New York, that she was to be the true owner and buyer of the guns instead of William Spengler,'' he said.
''It is absolutely against federal law to provide any materially false information related to the acquisition of firearms.
''It is sometimes referred to acting as a straw purchaser and that is exactly what today's complaint alleges,'' he said. The federal charges carry a maximum penalty of ten years imprisonment, a fine of US$250,000 or both.
During an interview late on Christmas Eve, Nguyen told police she had bought the guns for personal protection and that they were stolen from her vehicle, though she never reported the guns stolen.
The day after the shootings, Nguyen texted an off-duty Monroe County Sheriff's deputy with references to the killings. She later called the deputy and admitted she bought the guns for Spengler, police said.
That information was consistent with a suicide note found near Spengler's body after he killed himself. Nguyen and her mother, Dawn Welsher, lived next door to Spengler in 2008.
On Wednesday and again on Friday, she answered her cellphone and said she didn't want to discuss Spengler. Her brother, Steven Nguyen, told the Democrat and Chronicle newspaper of Rochester that Spengler stole the guns from Dawn Nguyen.
Spengler set a car on fire and touched off an inferno in his Webster home on a strip of land along the Lake Ontario shore, took up a sniper's position and opened fire on the first firefighters to arrive at about 5:30 a.m. on Christmas Eve, authorities said.
He wounded two other firefighters and an off-duty police officer who was on his way to work.
A Webster police officer who had accompanied the firefighters shot back at Spengler with a rifle in a brief exchange of gunfire before the gunman killed himself.
Spengler spent 17 years in prison for killing his grandmother in 1980. He had been released from parole in 2006 on the manslaughter conviction, and authorities said they had had no encounters with him since.
Investigators still haven't released the identity of remains found in Spengler's burned house. They have said they believe the remains are those of his 67-year-old sister, Cheryl Spengler, who also lived in the house near Rochester and has been unaccounted for since the killings.
The Spengler siblings had lived in the home with their mother, Arline Spengler, who died in October. In all, seven houses were destroyed by the flames.
Investigators found a rambling, typed letter laying out Spengler's intention to destroy his neighbourhood and ''do what I like doing best, killing people.''

YEARS by Bartholomäus Traubeck on Vimeo
A record player that plays slices of wood. Modified record player, wood, sleeves. 2011 Thanks to: Pro-ject Audio, Karla Spiluttini, Ivo Francx, Rohol www.traubeck.com UPDATE: Years is out as MP3.Download the digital release: http://traubeck.bandcamp.com/album/years To get the 12" vinyl release please go to http://www.ordia-muszc.com/shop/ Artist Bartholomaus Traubeck has created musical masterpieces, by playing trees. He created a record player that translates the different colors and textures of tree rings into music. Rather than use a needle like a record, sensors gather information about the wood and turn them into piano notes. Every tree sounds vastly unique due to varying characteristics of the rings, such as strength, thickness and rate of growth. Keep in mind that the tree rings are being translated into the language of music, rather than sounding musical in and of themselves. Traubeck's one-of-a-kind record player uses a PlayStation Eye Camera and a stepper motor attached to its control arm. It relays the data to a computer with a program called Ableton Live. What you end up with is an incredible piano track, and in the case of the Ash, a very eerie one. Hats off to Traubeck for coming up with the ingenious method to turn a simple slice of wood into a beautiful unique arrangement. It makes you wonder what types of music other parts of nature would play. http://thespiritscience.net/2015/05/14/what-a-tree-sounds-like-when-played-on-a-record-player/
Artist Bartholomäus Traubeck built a record player that "plays" cross-sectional slices of tree trunks resulting in his piece "Years," an audio recording of tree rings being read by a computer & turned into music. Tree rings are actually being translated into the language of music rather than sounding musical. The custom record player takes in data using a PlayStation Eye Camera & a stepper motor attached to its control arm & relays the data to a computer. A program then generates a piano track.
"Years", by Bartholomäus Traubeck , is record player that plays slices of wood. The record player is connected to a computer, which, while playing the wooden vinyl, outputs piano music based on the tree's rings strength, thickness and rate of growth.

Sigur Rós - Bíum Bíum Bambaló
Bíum Bambaló, Bíum Bíum
Leonardo Davinci designed the "viola organista." Slawomir Zubrzycki, a Polish pianist and instrument maker, built one from Leonardo's sketches. The viola organista has 61 strings, but no hammered dulcimers. Instead, it has wheel-shaped violin bows: To turn them, Zubrzycki pumps a pedal below the keyboard connected to a crankshaft. As he tinkles the keys, they press the strings down onto the wheels, emitting rich, sonorous tones reminiscent of a cello, an organ and even an accordion.

Buried in the pages of Leonardo Da Vinci's famous 15th century notebooks, amongst the sketches of flying machines, parachutes, diving suits, and armored tanks, was a curious idea for a musical instrument that merged the harpsichord and cello.
#LeonardoDaVinci's #ViolaOrganista is heard for the first time, after 500 years
▶ Viola organista made by Sławomir Zubrzycki - YouTube Leonardo Da Vinci's wacky piano is heard for the first time, after 500 years: A bizarre instrument combining a piano and cello has finally been played to an audience more than 500 years after it was dreamt up Leonardo da Vinci. Da Vinci, the Italian Renaissance genius who painted the Mona Lisa, invented the ''viola organista'' - which looks like a baby grand piano – but never built it, experts say.

If you don't know Icelandic or Morse code, you won't know what's being said in Sigur Rós' Varúð video. Fear not, because I also don't know the first thing about Icelandic or Morse code and I still liked this video plenty. There may not be much to it, but if you're a fan of Sigur Rós or of subtlety, I think you'll find the experience enjoyable. It's probably not the smartest idea to post something that requires patience to view, but patience is a virtue and I hear those are good to have.

Illinois Railway MuseumRead Morefacet: Main type: Traditional locale: en_US title: Illinois Railway Museum facet_type_id: 9c412e90-5f2c-1032-bbbd-a1eeb028c1ca html_text: |- The most enticing exhibits at the Illinois Railway Museum don't sit in glass cases. Instead, they can be found chugging along the five-mile mainline or the one-mile streetcar loop at various points in the day, giving visitors an opportunity to witness these antique machines functioning the way they were meant to do. This emphasis on living history is a key part of the museum's mission to educate visitors about the growth and development of the railroad industry throughout the Chicagoland area as well as the United States in general. Although it already possesses extensive collections of trolley coaches, electric cars, diesel engines, steam locomotives, and hovercraft, the Illinois Railway Museum is still bent on acquiring more pieces, hoping to eventually represent each major chronological period in the history of rail travel. The museum's technicians do their best to restore antique equipment whenever possible, either by rebuilding original parts or by using modern reproductions and cosmetic touches to fill in the blanks. This ensures that visitors will not only be able to see restored, full-sized versions of historic rolling stock, but can also witness them in motion and even ride some of them. Beyond the locomotives and cars, the Illinois Railway Museum also features a broad assortment of historical artifacts. Antique signals, telegraph and communications equipment, tools, uniforms, and ticket stubs are all available for viewing for guests hoping to learn even more about America's railroad history.7000 Olson Rd.Union, IL US

Richardson Adventure FarmRead MoreA family walks down a lane cut into a sprawling field of corn, striding confidently until they reach a fork. After a debate, they turn left, and eventually left again. A wooden bridge leapfrogs them to a new path, lined with rows of eerily similar corn stalks. Luckily, it's a balmy day, the blue sky striated with wispy clouds, and they're not in a hurry to emerge from the green ocean of corn. From an observation deck nearby, the 28-acre cornfield looks like a postage stamp inside the 450-acre farm, which grows soybeans, corn, and more than 50,000 Christmas trees. Homesteaded in 1840, the land is now owned and worked by a third generation of Richardsons. The family wanted to welcome visitors to the farm to enjoy the rural, outdoorsy fun that could only fit on such a sprawling space. They planted the corn maze—among the world's largest—and devised other attractions such as a zipline and paintball gallery. Visitors can also cheer on racing pigs, pet animals in an interactive zoo, and participate in different maze games. In autumn families come to pick pumpkins and in winter they cut their own Christmas trees.909 English Prairie Rd.Spring Grove, IL US
