The Hopi, Navajo, and Havasupai Native American cultures have the closet ties to Grand Canyon. All three have their creation 'stories' originating here.
You can experience the home of these three peoples today as you visit the Indian Nations around Grand Canyon Bed and Breakfast.
For more than 40,000 visitors a year, the famed Havasu Falls on the Havasupai Reservation is where it's at when it comes to Grand Canyon. Located in a side canyon that opens onto the Colorado river, Havasu Creek (which originates as Cataract Creek in Williams, AZ) drops along four major falls, the most popular and scenic being Havasu Falls. A campground located just downstream from the falls offers the perfect oasis getaway. Because a hike or backpack trip, is eight miles one way, and the hike farther down canyon can lead to several more miles of exploration, it is a high adventure experience.
Covering 27,000 square miles (70,000 square kilometers), the Navajo Nation is the single largest Native American reservation in the United States. Because this area consists of vast stretches of open land a car is necessary to get around. Be sure to fill up your gas tank when you have the opportunity. Service stations are few and far between in this region. The characteristic folk art of the Navajo is the Navajo rug (or blanket). Each region of the reservation has its own characteristic style of weavings, with a few patterns that can be found reservation-wide. As with other folk art, quality and prices vary wildly; small items for the tourist trade can be had for as little as $20 or so, while a gigantic, museum-quality (but brand-new rather than antique) rug from the prestigious "Two Grey Hills" region sold for $60,000 at an Indian market a few years ago. The key thing to remember is that the value of a particular weaving is the value you place on it. If you see a piece you like, haggle over price if you wish; if you don't get the price you want, look for another one. Also, look for Navajo turquoise/silver jewelry. The closest location to our B&B to experience Navajo culture, art and food is at Cameron Trading Post on the 'Rez'
To experience first-hand one of the most studied and revered Native American cultures in the country, visit the Hopi Nation. The Hopi Tribe is a sovereign nation located in northeastern Arizona. The reservation occupies part of Coconino and Navajo counties, encompasses more than 1.5 million acres, and is made up of 12 villages on three mesas. Hopi art is characterized by their pottery and hand carve kachina.
Since time immemorial the Hopi people have lived in Hopituskwa and have maintained there sacred covenant with Maasaw, the ancient caretaker of the earth, to live as peaceful and humble farmers respectful of the land and its resources. Over the centuries they have survived as a tribe, and to this day have managed to retain there culture, language and religion despite influences from the outside world.

MASSENA - Village police charged David S. MacDonald, 30, of 54 Perkins Road, Massena, and Donald T. (Trevor) Dow, 24, of 498 South Main St., Massena, with grand larceny and conspiracy counts late Saturday afternoon.
Dow was charged with third-degree grand larceny, fourth-degree grand larceny, second-degree forgery, fifth-degree conspiracy, resisting arrest and escape. He was arraigned by Massena Justice Gerald P. Sharlow and sent to the St. Lawrence County Correctional Facility with bail set at $50,000 cash or $100,000 bond.
MacDonald was charged with fourth-degree grand larceny and fifth-degree conspiracy. His bail was set at $10,000 cash or $20,000 bond by Judge Sharlow.
Police said the charges stemmed from an investigation into the reported theft of a wallet from 28 Cook St. Ed Frank had reported on May 1 his wallet had been taken from his vehicle parked overnight at his residence. The investigation into that larceny revealed a credit card from his wallet had been used to make over $3,500 in purchases at several businesses over the past three weeks.
Dow was charged with escape and resisting arrest after he left the interview room at the Massena Police Department without permission at approximately 7 p.m., ran out of the station and returned to his home. He was taken back into custody shortly after 8 p.m. after a short foot chase along the river bank off South Main Street.
Police allege MacDonald and Dow stole the wallet, and MacDonald, working in concert, used a debit card stolen from Franks wallet to purchase numerous items ranging from cigarettes to a television.
Dow, in the statement he provided police, said he had been given a red debit card on numerous occasions by MacDonald and told to purchases several items.
Dave offered to buy me cigarettes and told me to buy $20 or $30 worth of lottery tickets. Dave gave me a red credit card, and he stated to use credit, and it will definitely work. He said if you get in trouble Ill definitely take care of you. Dave told me that if I go to jail he would buy me commissary, Dow said in the statement he signed for police.
Dow said he used the credit card to buy four packs of cigarettes from the South Main Street Sunoco but learned he couldnt purchase lottery tickets with a credit card. He said MacDonald then asked him to go McDonalds and buy breakfast burritos. He said he did and bought nine burritos.
He said the two men then walked to the Sunoco on West Orvis Street, and MacDonald asked him to purchase more cigarettes, but he was denied because he was not carrying any identification.
Dow said MacDonald never went in any of the stores with him and stayed some distance away. ... he told (me) that he cant be seen by cameras because there were warrants out for him, and the cops were looking for him, he noted in his statement.
The two men then walked to Walmart. Dave was telling me the whole way to Walmart that he wanted me to buy him clothes and whatever I wanted to get for myself to get for myself and that it was on him. He kept patting me on the back and telling me dont worry about anything. No sweat, youll be fine, Dow told police in his statement.
He said MacDonald gave him the credit card again, but the two men split up before they got to the Walmart parking lot and entered the store separately. I put the stuff he wanted and the clothes I wanted into a shopping cart, and Dave did how own shopping. While we were waiting in line, he kept saying, Hurry up and get out of here, according to Dows statement.
Dow said the two men left the store in a cab, and he took tanks tops, shoes and a hat when he got to the residence, leaving the remainder of the items, including a phone, for MacDonald.
He said MacDonald called him about a half hour later, and the two men met behind Price Chopper and went on another shopping adventure. Dow said MacDonald gave him the credit card and had him buy six more packages of cigarettes at Sunoco before they made another trip to Walmart, where he allegedly had Dow enter the store and buy him PS3 games, Sippy cups and cleaning supplies. Dave was already in a cab waiting for me out front. He took me home, and he went his own way with all the stuff I just bought for him, he recalled.
Dow told police he had only been home for about 10 minutes when MacDonald called him again and asked to meet with him near Triple A Lumber. I met up with Dave, and he gave me the credit card again, and I went into Walmart and bought girls clothes for Dave with the credit card he gave me, Dow said in his statement, noting they again then called a cab and went to their respective homes.
Dave called me up and wanted to meet up again, and I said, No. Dave told me this was the last time, he said, noting the two men met up near The Open Net and walked together to Walmart.
Dave gave me the red credit card again and told me to buy a 55-inch television, a PS 3 with a paddle and a truck for a kids birthday, he said, acknowledging the used the credit card again to purchase those items. Dave stayed on the railroad tracks while I was in the store. I walked the tv on my shoulders to the railroad tracks and gave it to Dave. He gave me a pack of cigarettes. I walked the tracks toward 420 home, and Dave left with the all the stuff and the tv, he noted.
MacDonald, in the statement he provided police, said the two men had been in Walmart at that same time on May 1. He said he was doing some grocery shopping and ended up behind Dow in a checkout line. He checked out and asked the employee to call him a cab. I checked out behind him, and I told the employee I needed a cab as well, he said, noting he paid for his items with his benefit card and ended up leaving Walmart in the same cab as Dow. I did not have any more interaction with (Dow) at any point in time later in the day, he told police in his statement.
Court documents indicate Dow was caught on camera using the stolen credit card to purchase items at Walmart at 4:19 a.m. May 1 and that he had purchased $3,573.40 worth of merchandise before Mr. Frank was able to cancel his credit card.

Zoned Out

Posted by: Kevin Arnovitz
I'm with Kenny Smith. I know that the zone has served Flip Saunders well, but in a situation like the one Detroit faced –- having to extinguish the most historically unconscious blitz in recent memory -- you have to be able to exert better control over your defense. When you're in a man-to-man, who collapses and when they collapse is a decision of the individual and not the system. When you have good individual defenders as the Pistons do, that's an advantage you want. It's the difference in control you have over your terrian when driving an automatic transmission versus driving a stick. In a zone, the station of the ball generally dictates the defensive scheme. A weak-side defender in the zone can't say, "You know what? Right here is the instant I should slide over on LeBron. I've watched him for three possessions, and this is the precise spot he goes from second gear to third. But if I step in right now -- not a half-second from now, and not a second from now -- but right now, then--" Too Late. Driving slam. Even the Pistons, who instill a great deal of improvisation in its zone, can't give an unconscious assassin on his best night the attention he requires, unless they're in a man-to-man.

Even with Steve Jobs gone from the Apple helm, his revolutionary, consumer-inspired products continue to be hot on the market. Upcoming releases start the buzz early on and steadily grow in intensity... resulting in a resounding drone by the time the product actually arrives in Apple stores and the Occupy Apple Store participants can open their deceivingly simple boxes and lovingly put their new toys in their designer cases. Discover the latest Apple iPhone, iPad, iPod and MackBook accessories
With the iCult in full force, be prepared to be inundated with news of the next generation iPad tablet that is rumored to be released between mid-March and mid-April of next year. A skeptic may ask "How do they know this?" Well. As of now this news is being cited as an anonymous source in Apple's component supply chain by DigiTimes. The second generation iPad still has high production (in the 14 – 15 million unit range for 2011's fourth quarter). But come January, Apple will significantly drop its orders to suppliers to somewhere in the 4 to 5 million range. The supplier that gives its name and solid credence to these reports is Foxconn who has indicated that in the first quarter of 2012 they will build 9.5 – 9. 7 million iPad 3 units. Protect your Apple devices with innovative protective solutions and premium electronic accessories from the industry's most leading bra
So with all this talk of production, what will be new with the next iPad? Well, as of now, this next Apple tablet is said to be a bit thicker than the iPad 2 which would leave room to include a high resolution Retina Display. Earlier speculation thought the next generation iPad would launch in February, but this latest news from suppliers clarifies matters. It remains to be seen if this difference in size will affect the versatility of accessories. Enhance your mobility... turn your device into a power tool. Discover select accessories specifically designed to make your devices functionally efficient and performance rich.
Because of the exclusive BGR report last week which stated Samsung's timeline in revealing its new tablet at the Mobile World Congress in February.

Translation? Samsung will have a first to market tablet with the Retina-topping screen. Likely to capture some market share and give Apple its first "run for its money" in the tablet sector.

As the spring begins to turn into summer, the food bank is doing its part in trying to help the local community.
The city of Price has given the food bank the lot to grow a garden and help provide fresh, handpicked vegetables to those who use the food bank. This is the sixth year at the current lot located at 300 S. 100 E., in a lot next to the food bank.
Volunteers with VISTA and community members offering a helping hand, came out on Friday, May 14 to begin raking up weeds, prepping the soil and planting the seeds.
The garden will have a number of different plants being grow including tomatoes, bell peppers, squash, lemons, cucumbers, pees, corn, radishes, beetes, carrots and purple carrots.
"We always need help from volunteers to help clean up the weeds and help pick the vegetables," said Jackie Butkovich, community services program manager with Southeastern Utah Local Associations with Governments. The garden will be used to grow vegetables and other plants until the frost hits Price.

Oh man, what did I miss?
I managed to play two games of brikwars and a whole bunch of dwarf fortress last night!
We had a short battle of 5v5v5 over a bunch of boxes and stacked up things on my table. In the first battle my Holy Space Crusaders (Mandalorian armor mix-and-matched with space police and a few castle guys) secured the prized location of the Keif Shovel, which was a heroic weapon, embedded into a nug like excalibur. The Inquisition dropped off some reinforcements and a big size 2 machinegun with a gunner.
Rushing to meet them in glorious keify kombat, the White Knights of Dankness (a bunch of storm troopers, a ninja, a butcher I think) came in with a mercenary squad of two soldiers and a hero. They were there to take the keif shovel, and pack a fat bowl to smoke it, and there would be no stopping their bloodshed.
Right away they rushed in, but my machinegun was able to tear the hero to shreds with it's fire. Unfortunately, I did not target the bike, and when it crashed into the tower of giant skulls (an incense burner/ashtray), the tower collapsed and killed two of my defenders - a third of my team! Soon the mercenaries overwhelmed me, and though my hero (who'd survived the first game by using a scoped pistol/jetpack combination) and the other survivor (a space police 3 torso, grey ork armor, blue Mandalorian helmet with a scoped LMG w/ under-barrel grenade launcher) were incredibly well armed, they fell, and my gunner was heroicly beaten to death by the mercenary hero, as we all expected to happen. Things I learned:
*For maximum fun, start moving an out-of-control vehicle as soon as the pilot dies or the steering wheel is destroyed. Even if it's not that vehicle's turn, having it crash into something already in the way can have hilarious consequences. Even though both of the guys that got crushed hadn't moved or acted yet and it was still their turn, they were righteously struck down in the name of awesome.
*Just for clarity, a scoped (+1d6" range while aiming) autogun CAN use it's scope while firing at a single target, but we decided that using the scope while trying to make an arcing attack was a little silly. If you're using fingercones, you can't use a scope. Well, I guess you can put one on a shotgun, but only because it wouldn't actually help.

Authentically Modern & Hip in Savannah Since 1964 — Thunderbird Inn!
The DOCOMOMO US National Tour Day events in Savannah are October 78-8, 2011. The Thunderbird Inn in Savannah (circa 1964) is thrilled to be numbered among the modern buildings. We are noticing lately that our fun, experiential marketing's cool, hip vibe — jump started from our highway motel's "Hippest hotel in Savannah" (TM) slogan — is getting mussed about (inappropriately, we add) by others. We wonder, "Why trample on the little guy to inch into our hard-earned, groovy Savannah hotel lodging niche?"
So, today to commemorate the cool, modern DOCOMOMO tour and events and our "Hippest Hoste in Savannah" slogan, our so-cool, quirky billboard reads:
Hip and cool
Since 1964
Do not go for
"Stay Hip!" says Mark Thomas, General Manager at the Thunderbird Inn in Savannah, GA

A+: @ St. Lucie Mets 6, Fort Myers Miracle (MIN) 0
The big boy, 3B Aderlin Rodriguez launched a pair of homeruns to give him 20 this year. The 20-year old leads all Mets minor leaguers, and is tied with Ike Davis for the organizational lead. Nine of his 19 hits in 22 games in advanced-A have gone for extra-bases.
RF Cory Vaughn nearly kept pace, going 2-for-4 with his 18th homerun of the year. The 23-year old is hitting .241/.352/.452. His 18 bombs are second in the organization, and his 16 stolen bases are fifth.
RHP Tyler Pill (pictured) put together his best start of the year: 7.2 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 10 K. The 10 strikeouts matched his Savannah high set back on May 11. Pill's numbers in his last seven starts are sensational: 1.04 ERA, 43.1 IP, 29 H, 8 R, 5 ER, 1 HR, 3 HB, 9 BB, 44 K, .191 opponents' average. I'm pleasantly surprised by his FSL success, but double-A should be a much tougher test. Pill pitched 51.2 innings for Savannah and he's up to 59.1 innings in St. Lucie. He told MiLB.com, "I mixed up the game plan and pitching patterns." The B-Mets rotation currently includes RHP Gonzalez Germen, LHP Darin Gorski, RHP Greg Peavey, LHP Mark Cohoon and RHP Cory Mazzoni with Armando Rodriguez scheduled to make a spot start on Saturday in a double-header.
By the way, Twins 2011 first round pick, SS Levi Michael, who's hitting just .237/.330/.305 as a 21-year old in the FSL, left this game in the fourth inning after getting plunked in the first.
A: @ Asheville Tourists (COL) 3, Savannah Sand Gnats 2
The Gnats couldn't turn a double-play on a groundball in the eighth, which helped produce two runs, only one of which was earned, against RHP Domingo Tapia in the frame. His line: 7.1 IP, 3 H, 3 R, 2 ER, 0 BB, 5 K, 2 HBP.
Signs of life from second-rounder Matt Reynolds? He was 2-for-3 with a double to extend a modest hit streak to four games. He's hit safely in eight of his last nine however, and is hitting .344 (11 H/32 AB) in that time with two doubles and five walks. All told, he's hitting .236/.325/.311 in 29 games with the Gnats.

Intermittent Naltrexone Among Polysubstance Users (Project iN)
- Full Text View
- Tabular View

- Disclaimer
- How to Read a Study Record
Naltrexone, a µ-opioid receptor antagonist, is a promising agent for methamphetamine-using and binge-drinking men who have sex with men (MSM). Naltrexone has shown efficacy in reducing relapse to amphetamines and is FDA-approved for alcohol dependence. Oral naltrexone is inexpensive and has few toxicities but the standard daily regimen for naltrexone is problematic as patients forget to take the medication. Given the challenges in daily dosing, alternate regimen schedules have been proposed to increase efficacy and expand the population that may benefit from this pharmacologic agent. One approach is intermittent targeted administration of naltrexone, whereby individuals take the medication as-needed in anticipation of substance use or during periods of craving. Administration of naltrexone prior to exposure to amphetamines significantly attenuates craving and targeted naltrexone has shown efficacy in reducing heavy alcohol use. However, there have been no studies assessing intermittent targeted dosing of naltrexone among methamphetamine-using and binge-drinking MSM. Polysubstance use patterns are common among MSM, and studies among those who abuse more than one substance are urgently needed. The aims of this study are to determine whether targeted dosing of naltrexone is feasible, tolerable and acceptable among non-dependent methamphetamine-using and binge-drinking MSM.

PHILADELPHIA As senior forwards, Katie Brierton and Paige Fayette are making the most of their final season for Indian River in girls lacrosse.
In her sixth varsity season, Brierton set career school records in goals, assists and points in a 21-4 victory over Ogdensburg last Thursday.
Yet these numbers arent important to Brierton and Fayette, who rank first and third, respectively, in scoring in the Frontier League. They prefer to dwell on success of their team, which is off to 5-3 start this season, including winning its first league game in six seasons.
Those are nice, Brierton said of her team marks. But whats most important to me is seeing how this team has improved.
Brierton, who will attend the University at Albany to play at the Division I level, is the school record holder in goals (164), assists (72) and points (236).
We wouldnt be the team that we are without our other players, like our goalie, our defense and our midfielders, and even our coaches, said Brierton, who leads the Frontier League in both points (48) and assists (20) and is tied for second in goals (28). Its about all of us, not just myself and Paige.
With their 13-12 triumph over Carthage in A Division play on Tuesday, the Warriors broke through with their first victory in the Frontier League since 2007.
It was a great win for us, Brierton said. We trailed by four or five, but then we got it together and in the second half we all picked it up. Many players stepped up when we really needed them to, like Abby Lynch got a lot of important ground balls. She and Hannah Miterko lead our defense and our goalie Payge Heingarten made some important saves and nice clears.
The win is the latest step forward for Indian River, which is playing with more swagger and confidence this season.
This is a great start for us, said Fayette, who tops the league in goals (30) and stands third in points (39). Especially with the years weve had in the past, I think our hard work is starting to pay off.
In the past, our scores against Carthage were pretty lopsided, Indian River coach Fred Lavancha said. ... They had some fantastic players and our players were young, and at that point they were an elite program in the state. Theyve lost some talent to graduation and they arent quite what they once were, but for us to close the gap last year and then to beat them this year were pretty proud of that.
Both Brierton and Fayette, who has 166 career points, including 109 goals and 57 assists in five varsity seasons, have experienced a role reversal of sorts, Lavancha said, as Katie has progressed a great deal as a feeder and primary ball carrier and Paige has worked hard to get open and has been a primary dodger.
This certainly hasnt diminished their offensive production, as Fayette scored seven goals in the win over Carthage and Brierton totaled seven points, including five goals.
Its kind of a unique scenario to look at a point guard rarely switches roles with a shooting guard, but essentially thats kind in a lot of ways what has happened in the course of their junior and senior years, Lavancha said. So it says a lot about both players versatility and more so their willingness to adapt their games to what the team needs in critical situations.
The Carthage boys lacrosse team, which is 9-0 overall and has risen to sixth in the state in Class B, will host defending Section 3 Class C champion Homer at noon Saturday, as part of the programs Team 24 Never Stop Fighting game and American Cancer Society fundraiser.
Team 24 is an American Cancer Society Relay for Life team started a year ago by Comets coach Kirk Ventiquattro after he was diagnosed with stage four prostrate cancer, with the teams dual purpose of bringing awareness to cancer and raising funds for the ACS.
Admission is an optional donation to the ACS, event T-shirts will be sold for $15, and halftime will feature a future stars exhibition with Carthage youth players.
Watertown plays at South Jefferson at 4:30 p.m. next Wednesday in what will likely be a clash for first place in the Frontier League in girls lacrosse.
The first-place Cyclones (5-1, 4-0) are ranked 13th in the state in Class B, and led offensively by seniors Brianne Arthur (28-10-38) and Morgan Cadwell (16-4-20).
The Spartans (6-1, 3-1), ranked 19th in Class C in the state and currently occupying second place, are paced by sophomores Morgan Alexander (27-6-33) and Clarissa Perry (21-9-30).
Defensively, Watertown (46) and South Jefferson (51) rank first and second in the league in fewest goals allowed.
In the previous meeting this season, the Cyclones edged the Spartans, 11-10 on April 10.

Carbon and Emery County families will have an opportunity to drop off their unused prescription and over-the-counter drugs at the "Clean Out Your Medicine Cabinet" community medication take-back event at the Annual CHAT Health Fair October 12 from 7:30 a.m. until noon. The health fair and the drop off event will be at the Carbon County Fairgrounds Event Center west parking lot, Anyone who drops off any type of medication will receive a coupon book to local businesses worth over $500 of savings as well as other various items.
"We cannot ignore the prescription medication and over-the-counter problems this community is encountering," stated Kaylum Paletta from Four Corners Community Behavioral Health Inc. "Poisonings and death by over-dose is a reality we all need to be aware of. Many accidental over-doses can be prevented by disposing of your medication safely," she continued. "We need to clean out our medicine cabinets and protect those we love from gaining access to medication. Children can easily take a few pills out of a bottle and use them, sell them, or give them away before family members even notice they are gone. It is also a safety risk to keep these medications in your home. People have been known to break into homes; even when the residents are occupying the house. We are also highly concerned about the impact to the environment from flushing medicines down the toilet or sink. It is very costly to filter any medications out of the water supply."
This is a service that will allow community members to safely dispose of medications. They will be accepting any prescription or over the counter medications as well as syringes.
The event provides safe "Drive-Up Drop-Off" access in which volunteers from Carbon County will take possession of the medications and turn them over to the Sheriff's Office to have them incinerated. "This highly requested event is made possible through the cooperative spirit and sponsorship of multiple local citizens and agencies," said Price City Councilwoman Jeanne McEvoy
For convenience and safety, folks never have to get out of their car at this collection, it also should be noted that this event is confidential. They would like the medication to be left in the original bottle to make sorting the medication easy and accurate. For more information on proper disposal, including information on DEQ grants to local law enforcement agencies to provide collection boxes. Visit: http://www.medicationdisposal.utah.gov/. Price City as well as East Carbon City Police departments also have a drop off box located in their police stations. This box also allows community members to dispose of medications safely and responsibly on an as needed basis.

A recent article in The Independent discusses the issue of sharing housework in a marriage. Despite the fact that husbands do much more housework than they did 50 years ago, statistics in the UK show that women still do more housework than men. However, given the increase in women working full-time, inequality in household chores has become a larger strain on marriages. This is supported by recent research showing that divorce rates are lower in families where husbands do housework.
One study looking at young unmarried people's ideal and expected participation in housework and childcare sharing, found that young women expected to end up doing more housework than their husbands. However, men wanted to and expected to split household chores equally. Additionally, there was a difference between people who ideally wanted a career oriented partner versus a family oriented partner. Both men and women looking for a career oriented partner desired to participate more in household chores while those looking for a family oriented partner desired less involvement in household chores and child rearing.
This discrepancy between men and women's expectations and desires for chore sharing may shed some light on why equality in the home has been slower moving than expected. The authors suggest that this type of research can help promote changes in attitudes towards men's involvement in household chores. It also provides some evidence that in order for change to occur men need to follow through with their professed desire to be involved in housework but women also may need to change their expectations of doing more work, as men also seem to want equality.

Plants that Kill
—By Arden Dore
Have you ever heard the saying "Don't judge a book by its cover?" It means that things that look good on the outside aren't always good on the inside. Oleander, lily-of-the-valley, mistletoe, and azaleas are all beautiful plants. But don't let their vibrant colors fool you. Eating any one of them can cause you to get very sick—or even die.
Buttercups look good enough to eat. They are delicate and colorful. But if a cow takes just one bite its juices can severely injure its digestive system.
If you live in the South or have ever visited there, you might be familiar with oleander's pretty white, pink, or red clusters of flowers and green leaves that look like mini pinwheels. Oleander leaves contain the toxins oleandrin and nerioside. If a horse ate about 30 dried or wilted leaves, it would die within hours.
Some plants even release cyanide. Cyanide is a compound of carbon and nitrogen that can be deadly if swallowed. Many berry plants contain cyanide. They include mistletoe, yews, lantana, or moonseed. Never eat berries from plants or trees unless you check with an adult first.
Here are some other toxic plants.

Three-Point Barrage Lifts MBB Past Chicago State, 90-58
OMAHA, Neb. - Behind a season-high 16 three-pointers, the Creighton men's basketball team closed out the non-conference season with a 90-58 win over Chicago State on Sunday, Dec. 29.
The 16 three-pointers were tied for second-most in Creighton history, as the four Bluejay seniors (Jahenns Manigat, Ethan Wragge, Doug McDermott and Grant Gibbs) combined to drill 15-of-21 attempts.
The win lifted Creighton to 10-2 on the season, while Chicago State fell to 5-8 overall.
For the fourth straight game, Creighton never trailed. The Bluejays led 12-5 after just five possessions after a pair of three-pointers, a dunk, a lay-up and two free throws in less than three minutes. McDermott would score 16 points, including four three-pointers, to help Creighton double up the Cougars 24-12 after six minutes.
CSU went to the long ball, including a pair of 30-foot heaves from Quinton Pippen, and would draw within 27-26 late in the first half before Manigat answered with a three-ball. The lead would remain at three or higher the rest of the day and was 45-38 at halftime. Creighton made 10 three-pointers in the first half while dishing an assist on all 13 field goals.
Creighton would open the second half on a 14-5 flurry that started with a Manigat trey and included three Wragge triples to stretch the lead to 62-44 with 12:37 left.
Creighton got strong bench play from freshman Zach Hanson in the final 10 minutes, as the forward tied a career-high with nine points. CU's lead reached as large as 33 (90-57) before a Markus Starks free throw closed the scoring in the final 30 seconds.
McDermott had yet another historic day, finishing with 24 points, six rebounds and season-best four assists. A three-pointer with 15:11 left in the first half made him the 64th player in NCAA history to surpass 2,500 career points, and he would end the day with 2,513 points to rank tied for 59th place all-time. McDermott was also a perfect 8-for-8 at the line. His 37 straight free throws eclipse the previous CU mark on record of 36 set by Booker Woodfox.
Manigat tied a career-high with five three-pointers to score a season-best 15 points, while Wragge had 15 points after making his first five attempts from long-range. Creighton shot 56.3 percent from the field, including 16-of-25 from deep, and also made 20-of-22 foul shots. The Jays won the battle of the boards 35-22 and had 24 assists on 27 baskets.
Chicago State was paced by 14 points from Clarke Rosenberg, while Quinton Pippen added 13 points and Matt Ross 11. The Cougars, who dropped to 0-8 away from home this season, shot 38 percent from the field, 10-of-24 from downtown and 10-of-17 at the line.
Creighton returns to action on Tuesday, Dec. 31 as the Bluejays open their first season as a member of the BIG EAST by hosting conference favorite Marquette at 9:02 pm.
NOTES: Doug McDermott now has scored 20 points in 11 of 12 games this year ... Creighton has won nine straight home games and not trailed in the second half (and just 8:06 at any point) during any of them ... Crieghton improved to 12-0 in Sunday home games at CenturyLink Center Omaha that start after 4 pm Central ... Creighton has won 99 straight games when scoring 78+ points at home and 61 straight when scoring 90 points at any site ... The only other BIG EAST player to reach 2,500 career points is Boston College's Troy Bell (1999-2003) ... Creighton has held eight of 12 opponents under 40 percent this season.

Indians look sharp in beating Cheney
Colville High (6-6, 2-2) took out a few frustrations on Cheney (3-8, 1-4) last Saturday night at home in a 53-35 Great Northern League girl's basketball win. The win over the Blackhawks was one of the Indians' best all-around outings of the season and helped take away some of the sting of a pair of GNL losses to West Valley and East Valley during the week.
Colville fell to West Valley 43-32 back on Jan. 8 and dropped a 43-36 decision last Friday to host East Valley after leading by six points and half. The Indians were outscored 17-1 in the third quarter against the Knights.
Colville was at Deer Park (0-12, 0-4) on Tuesday and will entertain Pullman (6-5, 2-1) on Friday. Game time is 5:45 p.m.
An important date on Friday with Pullman
CHS head coach Ray Clark would like nothing better than to pull off a sweep this week after the Indians went 1-2 last week. If his team plays like they did against Cheney, a sweep is a distinct possibility.
"We are starting to play better," Clark said on Monday. "We're starting to get after it."
While Deer Park continues to be the GNL cellar-dweller, Pullman has always had a solid program. The Greyhounds aren't quite as formidable—or as tall—as they have been in past seasons. PHS, like Colville, is guard-oriented. It's likely that something will give on Friday night when the 'Hounds visit.
"Pullman is playing well," Clark said. "They are a veteran team (seven seniors). That senior class seems like it has been together forever."
Look for the Indians, with their speed in the backcourt, to pressure Pullman's guards.
"We'll work to put pressure on them and, hopefully, wear them down," Clark said, noting that Jessi Wittmeyer and Malia Luu exacted considerable pressure and a toll on Cheney's guard rotation last Saturday night.
"They did a very good job of working Cheney's point guard (Chae Brown)," Clark added. "We need to do that to other point guards…make them work…wear them down."
In the loss at home to West Valley, Colville struggled with the Eagles' pressure, particularly in the first half. On Friday at East Valley, Colville didn't handle the Knights' half-court trap in the third quarter. And EV didn't miss much in a very productive quarter.
"That was a very good half-court trap, but it shouldn't beat you," Clark said, promising that the Indians would work on pressure in practice sessions this week.
In the loss to West Valley, Erin Higbie led the visitors with a game-high 21 points.
Erin Wallman led East Valley in their comeback win over Colville with 12 points and 10 rebounds.
Taryn Main led CHS with 10 points.
Learn hot early
One night later back home, junior Sadie Learn turned in her best offensive outing of the season, hitting several early jump shots to stake the Indians to an early lead they wouldn't relinquish. Learn finished with 13 points.
Cheney had trouble all night long with Colville's quickness and full court pressure. The Indians raced to an 18-7 first quarter lead and expanded that to as much as 16 in the second quarter.
In GNL games last Tuesday night, East Valley (10-3, 4-1) downed Cheney, 58-40 on the road behind Hannah Burland's 11 points and Taylor Morscheck and Jordan Phelan's 10 apiece.
Coreen Labish had 11 points for Cheney.
Janey Reeves led a balance Clarkston (3-6, 1-1) attack in a 54-17 rout of host Deer Park last Tuesday night.
On Friday, league-leading West Valley (8-4, 4-0) downed Cheney, 58-51, behind Erin Higbie's 13 points.
Pullman built a 47-4 halftime lead and overwhelmed Deer Park, 61-12 on Friday. Emily Drake led Pullman with 19 points.
In a battle for first place in the GNL on Saturday night, Higbie scored 20 points and grabbed 12 rebounds to lead West Valley to a 52-46 win at East Valley.
It was West Valley's fourth straight win.
Wallman had 12 points and nine boards for East Valley.

Waldorf Astoria Shanghai on the Bund (上海外滩华尔道夫酒店)
The Waldorf Astoria occupies one of Shanghai's oldest buildings: the restored 101-year-old former Shanghai Club.
With giant chandeliers, neo-classical ceiling carvings and original marble floor tiles shipped from Sicily a century ago, the interior feels more like a royal palace than a hotel.
Most of its 260 rooms are located in the newly built 24-story tower. Many deliver unobstructed view of Lujiazui's skyscraper forest.
Rooms are decked out in nostalgic American style, with modern plush touches such as large walk-in closets, Hermès bathing amenities and digital TVs embedded in the mirrors.
The hotel's historic Long Bar (34 meters from end to end) mixes the city's top-notch cocktails.

Interiors follow a streamlined Chinese style with earth-tone furniture and outsize bathrooms that include a one-square-meter walk-in rain shower.

Hengshan Picardie Hotel (衡山宾馆)

The 15-story, 259-room Picardie sits opposite Xujiahui Park, one of the best locations in town to observe China's unique park culture: you'll see massive exercise groups at dawn and a public dancing spectacle at dusk.
It's also a quick stroll from Shanghai's traditional bar district on Hengshan Lu, the shopping district of Xujiahui and Metro Line 1.
Hengshan Picardie Hotel, No.534 Hengshan Road, Xuhui District, Shanghai 200030 China; +86 21 6437 7050; rooms from RMB 550 ($86)
Hotel Equatorial (上海国际贵都大饭店)
One of the first hotels in Shanghai built to receive international travelers after the Chinese economy opened up to world trade, the 520-room, four-star lodging is in the thick of things.
It's a few steps away from Nanjing Xi Lu (ground zero for high-end shopping) and the fabulous Jing'an Temple, a 780-year-old Buddhist shrine.
Two metro lines and the Yan'an Lu elevated highway are right outside, so guests can zip to any part of the city quickly and without hassle.

URBN Hotel (URBN焦点)
This 26-room boutique hotel in downtown Jing'an District was once a post office and now claims to be China's first carbon neutral hotel. The renovation, which was completed using 100 percent locally-sourced and recycled materials, has won numerous awards for its sustainability and design.
Located on a local street, across the road from one of Shanghai's best little tonkatsu joints, URBN is popular with visitors looking for innovative design and a green feel, with rooms over-looking a courtyard and bamboo garden.
The food and beverage options are also none to shabby at URBN, with its Downstairs restaurant serving up delicious weekend brunch options accompanied by a mean Bloody Mary.
URBN Hotel Shanghai, No.183 Jiaozhou Road, Jing'an District, Shanghai 200040 China; +86 21 5153 4600; rooms from RMB 1,300 ($200) plus 15 percent service charge

Jinjiang Inn (锦江之星)
This no-frills hotel chain provides all the basics for a short stay for the price of a few drinks in a ritzy bar.
Location is superb for the price. The 159-room inn is within walking distance of many tourist attractions, such as Old Town, People's Square, Huaihai Zhong Lu and Xintiandi.
It's also at the south end of Yunnan Nan Lu, one of Shanghai's original food streets with some of the city's yummiest shengjian (fried dumplings) at Da Hu Chun (大壶春, 71 Yunnan Nan Lu, near Jinling Dong Lu).
The budget hotel brand operates at some 85 branches all over Shanghai, from commercial zones to airports and railway stations.

Fu 1088 (福1088)
This Shanghainese restaurant is housed in a 1930s colonial villa. Instead of a dining room, guests eat in private rooms furnished with antiques.
On a menu of tweaked Shanghainese specialties, diners will find everything from traditional hongshao rou to creamy huangyu (yellow croaker) noodle soup served in a mug.
Modern dishes include goose liver poached in sake.
Shanghainese food critic Shen Hongfei (沈宏非) recommends the crab with egg white, a delicate, creamy dish brought to the table in an actual eggshell.
Fu 1088, 375 Zhenning Lu, Shanghai China; +86 21 5239 7878; 11 a.m.-2 p.m., 5:30-11 p.m.; expensive
Jesse (吉士酒家)
With its curmudgeonly waiters and tiny, crowded dining room, the original Jesse location on Tianping Lu isn't just a meal, it's an experience.
Rica Lou, dining editor at Ganlan magazine, calls the original Jesse her "hands-down favorite Shanghainese restaurant." It's the creamy crab roe potato soup that wins her over every time.
Shen Hongfei votes for the Shaoxing-wine-marinated crab, a best of Shanghai dish that's popular with locals.
For an appetizer (or dessert), the xin tai ruan is a sweet dish of red jujubes stuffed with soft, glutinous rice cake.
Two of Jesse's signature dishes, the eight treasure duck and green onion fish head, require 24 hours notice.
Jesse Restaurant, 41 Tian Ping Road, Shanghai 200030 China; +86 21 6282 9260; 11 a.m.-4 p.m., 5:30 p.m.-midnight; moderate
Yi Long Court (逸龙阁)
This Peninsula restaurant cooks some of the best Cantonese dishes in Shanghai.
"It's so rare to see such classic Cantonese food," says Shen Hongfei. "It's flavorful and light and it's almost like the food prepared for the managers of Thirteen Factories [an 18th-century foreign trade zone in Guangzhou]."
One of Shen's favorites at Yi Long Court is beef with oyster sauce, which is "a long-lost classic Cantonese dish."
To make the most out of the meal, book the eight-seat chef's table, prepared by executive chef Dicky To.
Yi Long Court, 2/F, The Peninsula Shanghai, 32 Zhongshan Dong Yi Lu, near Beijing Dong Lu; +86 21 2327 2888; 11:30 a.m.-2:30 p.m., 6-10:30 p.m.; expensive
Xin Da Lu (新大陆)
Peking duck is the star at this Chinese regional restaurant.
The Hyatt recruited two Beijing master chefs and lugged a seven-ton brick oven from the capital especially to roast the ducks to crisp and lacquered perfection.
The open kitchens allow diners to admire the shining fowl roasting over a fire of fruitwood logs before they're brought to table, sliced and served with sugar for dipping.
Xin Da Lu, Hyatt on the Bund East Building, 199 Huangpu Lu, near Nanxun Lu; +86 21 6393 1234 ext. 6318; 11:30 a.m.-2:30 p.m., 5:30-10:30 p.m.; expensive
Hai Di Lao hot pot (海底捞火锅)
The best part about eating at Hai Di Lao is waiting in the queue.
Tea, fruit plates, Wi-Fi, board games, shoeshines and even manicures are provided to customers for free. Enthusiastic staff keep waiting diners upbeat.
The restaurant chain boils hot pot 24/7.
The meal itself embraces a staggering choice of vegetables, meat and seafood that diners cook themselves in a bubbling pot of broth placed in the middle of the table. Hot pot soups range from super-spicy to plain and diners get to DIY their dipping sauce.
The hand-pulled noodles are prepared tableside with a kung fu-style noodle dance.
The brand hosts a virtual dining service in two locations in Shanghai and Beijing.
Hai Di Lao Hot Pot Restaurant, No. 1100, Wuzhong Road, Minhang District, Shanghai China; +86 21 6277 0701; open 24 hours; moderate
Fu Chun Xiaolongbao (富春小笼包)
Xiaolongbao is Shanghai's favorite snack food and everyone in Shanghai has an opinion about where the best xiaolongbao in town can be found. There are many excellent options around town, but many visitors unfortunately usually end up at tourist traps in Yu Gardens, or at chains such as Din Tai Fung.
A very respectable example of the specialty can be had from Fu Chun, in the downtown Jing'an District. Popular with locals, this place is perpetually busy with diners ordering Fu Chun Xiaolongbao (RMB 6 for six dumplings) and Crab Roe Xiaolongbao (RMB 16 for six dumplings) in ample quantities.
Fu Chun Xiaolongbao, 650 Yuyuan Lu, near Zhenning Lu; +86 21 6277 0701; 6:30 a.m. to midnight; bargain
Qibao food street (七宝老街)
During public holidays, massive crowds of travelers swarm Qibao Old Street for a view of the canals, or to snap that atmospheric photo of morning haze dancing around the neighborhood's scenic bridge.
But for locals, day trips to the water town are about one thing only: food.
Numerous hole-in-the-wall restaurants along the 400-meter-long street sell an extensive assortment of local snacks, from xiaolongbao to stinky tofu to tuang tuan.
Read the foodie's guide to Qibao food street.
Qibao Old Street is approximately 30 minutes away from downtown Shanghai by metro. Take Metro Line 9 to Qibao Station (七宝站). From there, the street is 10 minutes' walk away.

Flair is the crowning glory of the Ritz-Carlton Shanghai, Pudong.
The rooftop bar's interiors were created by Japanese design gurus Super Potato, but the real draw is the terrace. Standing approximately 250 meters in the sky, this is the highest bar terrace in the city, with tiered sofa-seating that looks onto the financial district's skyscrapers.
Drinks cost RMB 80 and up for cocktails. Sashimi is flown in daily from Japan.
When the skies are clear, call ahead to book a table and ask if there's a minimum spend that day.
Flair Rooftop, 58F, Ritz Carlton Pudong, 8 Shiji Da Dao, near Lujiazui Huan Lu No, Shanghai 200120 China; +86 21 2020 1778; 2 p.m.-2 a.m.
This plush club/bar/restaurant remains a favorite of the city's beautiful people.
It takes up the 24th floor of a building between People's Square and the Bund and affords staggering views toward Pudong or Puxi city center.
Shark tanks run the length of the entrance, while uniformed waiters and bartenders shake up pricey drinks (RMB 80-120 for cocktails).
The door staff often turn away non-members when it gets crowded, so it doesn't hurt to dress up or call ahead to book a table (minimum spends of around RMB 5,000 often apply).
M1NT, 24th floor, 318 Fuzhou Lu, Shanghai China; +86 21 6391 2811; 6 p.m.-late (bar and restaurant); 9 p.m.-late from Wednesday-Saturday (club)
The Apartment
Since opening in 2010, The Apartment has become one of the most popular bars in Shanghai.
It takes up two floors plus a roof garden in the center of the former French Concession and attracts a crowd that's upscale without being pretentious.
In the daytime, the rooftop is a leisurely place to eat and sip wine -- drinks cost RMB 50-80.
At night it gets rammed with cocktail-sipping, well-dressed Chinese and foreign guests, and stays that way until 4 a.m. or so.
the Apartment, 3F Yongfu Road no.47, Shanghai China; +86 21 6437 9478; 6 p.m.-late
JZ Club
This dim, smoky room is the go-to place for jazz aficionados in Shanghai.
Inside, it's like a Parisian bar from the 1950s: a cluster of small round tables spilling out from a low stage, with a long bar at the back and a gallery up top.
There's live music here every night, from Gypsy jazz to swing and blues. Drink prices are around RMB 50 for wine and RMB 70 for cocktails.
This best of Shanghai nightclub fills up on weekends so come early -- or very late -- if you want a table.
Jz Club, No.46 Fuxing West Road, Shanghai China; +86 21 6431 0269; 8:30 p.m.-2:30 a.m.
Cashbox Partyworld (钱柜)
The best of Shanghai sports many flavors of karaoke bar (or KTV, as they're known), from seedy to five-star.
Cashbox is somewhere in the middle -- fun, inexpensive and hugely popular with a young crowd.
The Fuxing Park branch is next to a couple of Chinese clubs. On weekends it swarms with well-dressed youths.
Guests book private rooms that seat eight to 20 people. Bring your own drinks or order beer and spirits from the house.
Rooms run around RMB 200 per hour, depending on size and number of guests.
Cashbox Partyworld, 109 Yandang Lu, near Fuxing Zhong Lu; +86 21 6374 1111; 11 a.m.-6 a.m.
No. 88 (No.88酒吧)
This chain of bars is wildly popular in many of China's second- and third-tier cities and since they opened their first Shanghai incarnation it's become apparent that the formula works wonders in the big smoke as well.
Simply take some insanely gawdy decor (think a cross between Willy Wonka's factory and a pirate ship), add flashing lights, tipsy people looking for a good time, an emphasis on bottle service and a setlist of top 40 remixes and you can't lose.
No. 88 Bar, 2/F, Wujin Building, 291 Fumin Lu, near Donghu Lu; +86 21 6136 0288

Taikang Lu (泰康路)
Crowds of tourists, artists, hipsters and fashionistas pour into the tiny longtangs (Shanghainese alleyways) of Taikang Lu to experience Shanghai's bohemian charm.
The area represents a traditional Shanghainese residential form, shikumen ("stone door houses"), and is now a half-commercial complex selling everything from tailored qipao to French wine.
Souvenirs are overpriced, but the ambience is worth sampling.
Locals still live in some of these buildings -- travelers can see elderly people chatting each other or middle-aged women hanging laundry outside.
Taikang Lu between Sinan Lu and Ruijin Er Lu 思南路和瑞金二路之间的泰康路
Dongtai Lu antique market (东台路古玩街)
For anyone visiting Shanghai with time for only one market, this outdoor antique bazaar is a good bet.
It's in an enclave of hanging laundry, locals washing vegetables in the street and kids playing tag.
Just don't forget to bargain hard.
Many of the "antiques" aren't old, but they're fun.
Stands sell 1930s-style posters featuring glamorous smiling Shanghai ladies, or statuettes of Chairman Mao playing table tennis (RMB 50 after bargaining).
Dongtai Road Antique Market, Liuhekou Road, Huangpu District, Shanghai 200000 China; 9 a.m.-6 p.m.
Tianshan Tea City (天山茶城)
This 23,000-square-meter, multi-level complex is completely devoted to Chinese cha.
More than 150 stalls sort, sell and brew tea from around the nation, but green tea (and all its variations) reigns supreme.
The market also sells a range of tea sets and kettles, from common porcelain to top-level Yixing clay teapots.
Friendly tea sellers will provide professional tips.
Tianshan Tea City, No.520 Zhongshan West Road, Changning District, Shanghai China; +86 21 6259 9999; 8:30 a.m.- 8:30 p.m.
Shi Liu Pu Fabric Market (十六铺面料城)
This three-story fabric market has almost every type of fabric, from cashmere to silk. Stalls are manned by experienced local tailors and seamstresses who speak fluent English.
Tailored clothes come at reasonable prices. Qipao (from RMB 250), shirts (from RMB 120) and suits (from RMB 300) are among the most popular items.
Some shops accept urgent orders and can deliver final products overnight at (amazingly) no extra charge.
Delivery service is available, but the stores need to be informed beforehand.
ShiLiu Pu Cloth Market, 168 Dongmen Road, Shanghai China; +86 21 6330 1043; 8:30 a.m.-6:30 p.m.
Super Brand Mall (正大广场)
This 10-story Lujiazui building is the top shopping mall experience in Shanghai: it's loud, crowded and larger than a major university campus.
Spread over 247,425 square meters, this Thai-financed mall was the largest in Asia when it opened in 2002. It reports an average of 200,000 visitors daily.
The mall sells most of the mainstream fashion brands available in Shanghai. Its dining scene is impressive: nearly 60 restaurants, from hot pot chains to Hooters.
Super Brand Mall, 168 Lujiazui Xi Road, Shanghai China; +86 21 6887 7888; 10 a.m.-10 p.m.
Hongqiao Bird and Flower Market (虹桥花鸟市场)
A perennially interesting market, traditionally selling pets, flowers, home wares and more, a recent fire means the live animal section of the Hongqiao Bird and Flower Market is currently under renovation.
Despite the fact that you won't be able to pick up a 100-year-old turtle or talking parrot here (for now), it's still worth a visit in order to wander among the many-hued blossoms of the real and (seriously high-quality) fake flowers on display, or check out some of the unique housewares, which run the gamut from gaudy to graceful to gargantuan (see if you can fit a life-sized white unicorn with an asking price of RMB 22,000 in your luggage!).
Hongqiao Bird and Flower Market, 718 Hongjing Lu, near Hongsong Lu; 8 a.m.-6 p.m.

Bund (外滩)
The 1,100-meter waterfront known as the Bund forms Shanghai's backbone.
British and French colonized the strip in the mid-19th century to develop international trading -- the Bund became one of the most prosperous ports in Asia in the early-20th century.
Nowadays the buildings, mostly built between 1901 and 1930 in various styles, house high-end boutiques, restaurants and bars.
A must-do on the Bund stroll is to pass through the revolving door of the former HSBC Shanghai office (today's No. 12, Zhongshan Dong Yi Lu) and check out the original ceiling and wall paintings. Upon completion in 1925, the Brits declared the building the most exquisite structure in the eastern hemisphere.
Just off the Bund, next to the Peninsula Shanghai, is the Rockbund, a newly developed pedestrian street with more restored colonial structures.
The Bund, 5 blocks of Zhongshan Dong Yi Lu between Jinling Lu and Suzhou Creek, Shanghai China;
Shanghai World Financial Center Observatory (上海环球金融中心观光厅)
Almost half a kilometer up in the air (474 meters to be exact), the 55-meter-long Skywalk 100 observation corridor spans a gap in the 100th-floor summit of the Shanghai World Financial Center.
As the world's highest observatory, Skywalk 100 provides a powerful perspective: Jinmao Tower (420.5 meters) is right under its nose and the view (on a clear day) extends beyond Zhongshan Park in Puxi.
Walking through the deck is an almost hallucinatory experience: the observatory's angled glass walls can make visitors feel as if they're leaning over the edge.
And it has see-through glass flooring.
A slightly less vertiginous option is the Skywalk 97. It's a mere 439 meters high, with a glass roof that opens up.
Shanghai World Financial Center, Building 1, No.100 Century Ave, Pudong New Area, Shanghai China; +86 21 6877 7878; 8 a.m.-11 p.m.
Xintiandi (新天地)
This restored compound is one of the most popular attractions in Shanghai.
Only 15 years ago, the area was an ordinary shikumen residential area. It's since been converted to a business district populated by high-end bars, restaurants, shopping malls and the ubiquitous symbol of global gentrification: Starbucks.
The location is good for a lazy afternoon walk.
It also hosts some of Shanghai's best foreign restaurant selections.
The Shikumen Open House Museum is another highlight.
Ironic background: the Communist Party of China was founded on this block -- 91 years later it's capitalism, not communism, that does the talking. Visitors can nevertheless tour the room where the first party congress was held.
Xintiandi, Nearest metro station is Metro Line 1 Huangpi Nan Lu. Enter Xintiandi from the corner of Huangpi Nan Lu and Taicang Lu or Madang Lu and Taicang Lu
City God Temple (城隍庙)
The City God Temple, or Cheng Huang Miao, is a 600-year-old Daoist temple in the heart of Shanghai's Old Town. It houses the Cheng Huang God, the deity that protects local people.
The phrase also refers to the temple fair and commodity market near the shrine.
Although the temple can still be busy with pious religious followers, more people now come for the shopping.
Endless stalls sell everything Chinese, from chopstick gift sets to Peking/Sichuan opera mask bottle openers. It's also the headquarters for Shanghainese snacks, from stinky tofu (臭豆腐) to five-flavor bean (五香豆).
The best time to visit the market is around Christmas, New Year and Lunar New Year when the whole area is blanketed with festive decorations.
City God Temple, 249 Fangbang Zhong Lu, near Anren Lu; +86 21 6328 4494; 5 a.m.-4:30 p.m. on the first and 15th days of the lunar calendar; 8:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m. all other days; RMB 10
Happy Valley (欢乐谷)
Heaven for thrill-ride aficionados, the 900,000-square-meter theme park contains nearly 10 different scream machines, including various roller coasters and free-fall rides.
Highlights include a 30-meter-tall, 1,200-meter-long lakeside wooden roller coaster and 60-meter-high free-fall drop machine.
The super-speed log flume creates a splash as high as 15 meters.
Happy Valley of Shanghai, No.888 Linhu Road, Songjiang District, Shanghai 201602 China; +86 21 3355 2222; RMB 200; 9 a.m.-8 p.m.; free Happy Valley shuttle buses are available at Metro Line 9 Sheshan Station.
People's Park 'marriage market' (人民公园相亲角)
The "marriage market" is less tourist attraction and more about a view into unique local culture.
Every Saturday and Sunday, hundreds of parents gather at People's Park, regardless of the weather, with the hope of finding an ideal partner for their high-time-they-got-hitched offspring.
Parents simply clutch single sheets of paper that present their children in a few simple phrases -- age, height, education, job, salary, whether they studied abroad and whether they own their own apartment.

Walking Tours
Former French Concession
Planned and built by French colonists in the early 20th century, this neighborhood -- roughly bound by Ruijin Lu to the East, Yan'an Lu to the North, Zhaojiabang Lu to the South and Huashan Lu to the West -- is more Parisian than Chinese.
Its quiet, tree-lined streets now teem with boutiques, bars and restaurants.
Best locations to observe lingering "Frenchness" include Anfu Lu, Wukang Lu and Yongkang Lu. Or follow the route designed by a French Concession native.
Several agencies in Shanghai provide multi-lingual tours around the former French Concession. Contact Luxury Concierge China or Newman Tours.
Shanghai Art Deco Walking Tour
Shanghai's art deco heritage is unsurpassed in Asia.
Having spent 16 years in Shanghai, architecture buff Spencer Dodington has a matchless knowledge of the city's art deco history, which he imparts on customized tours.
"These lovely buildings got me hooked on the uniqueness of Shanghai 1930s architecture," says Dodington.
"It's really different and interesting compared to Texas, where I'm from, but it's also different from other cities with their own art deco, like Miami and New York."
Check out Dodington's favorite art deco structures in Shanghai or join his multi-lingual art deco tour through email@example.com or +86 135 0166 2908.
Tours of Jewish Shanghai
Approximately 300,000 Jews escaped Europe and fled to Shanghai between 1933 and 1941.
They lived in the infamous Shanghai Ghetto (now Hongkou District) and made up one of the largest overseas Jewish communities at the time.
Led by Israeli Dvir Bar-Gal, these four-hour tours take in some of the most fascinating elements of Shanghai's Jewish history.
As the tour progresses, the story of Shanghai as a melting pot of opium dealers, colonialists, business moguls and Holocaust survivors is gradually unveiled.
