There are always lots of factors: A variety of activities so that everyone along on the trip will enjoy themselves; weather and climate; ease of getting there; and cost, among other things. Minnesota is a great place to consider.
Let's Go to the Zoo!
The Minnesota Zoo in Apple Valley encompasses 500 acres with close to 3,000 animals and 504 species. And when it comes to the art and culture scene, you don't have to leave the kids behind; youngsters will love the famed spoon-and-cherry outdoor sculpture at the Walker Art Center, as well as taking in a show at the Children's Theatre Company. Discover paintings by van Gogh at the Minneapolis Institute of Arts, catch a Broadway show at the Orpheum Theatre, or enjoy the melodic sounds played at the newly renovated Orchestra Hall.
Saint Paul
Families can start at the acclaimed Minnesota Children's Museum downtown, which they will find undertaking an expansion and renovation to add entirely new exhibits, including a multi-story climber, expanded toddler gallery, exciting air-and-water gallery and more; a café with coffeebar, and other amenities.
With permanent and rotating hands-on exhibits that fuel learning, interaction and imagination, this children's museum is a must-stop for families.Add a comment
There is also another location in Rochester, and a small museum annex at the Mall of America in Bloomington.
Next, check out the Science Museum of Minnesota, founded in 1907 and offering 370,000 square feet of activities including a 10,000-square-foot temporary exhibit gallery, five permanent galleries, 10 acres of outdoor exhibits, and an Imax Convertible Dome Omnitheater.
At the Twin Cities' other zoo, the Como Park Zoo and Conservatory, the whole family will enjoy seeing polar bears, zebras, lemurs and 1,000 other animals that call the zoo home. Also check out Como Town, the adjacently located kid-centered amusement park, or the beautiful displays of exotic plants at the conservatory gardens.
St. Paul is also full of history, from the Summit Avenue district where you can admire some of the state's most beautiful Gilded Age architecture.
Named one of America's Great Streets, Summit Avenue is where you will find the former home of F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald (at 599); the home where the famed author was born is also in this neighborhood (481 Laurel Ave).
The James J. Hill House is open to the public for tours, and they often host fun family events such as Easter Egg hunts and other holiday events; Victorian ghost stories; and live music.
They also offer walking tours of the historic neighborhood, which is home to the longest remaining stretch of Victorian homes in the country.
Bloomington/Mall of America
We should start by clarifying: this is not your standard shopping mall. Mall of America is more like a shopping/eating/playing mecca, truly a destination in itself where you could spend days and not do it all.
From the fun-for-all-ages Nickelodeon Universe amusement park and Seal Life Aquarium, to Moose Mountain Adventure Golf, a small annex of the Minnesota Children's museum, the Lego Imagination Center, a mirror maze, flight simulation center, and the new Crayola Experience, MOA wins over even people such as myself who don't like malls.
There are also plenty of hotel options right there — my pick was the Radisson Hotel Bloomington, which is home within the hotel itself to the Water Park of America; a total blast at all times of year since it's completely enclosed inside. Plus, Radisson hotel guests get exclusive use of the water park from 9-11 each morning, so you can avoid the crowds.
Of course, if you do want to shop, this is the place to do it. With no sales tax on clothes and shoes in the state, the savings here are unbeatable.
MOA is home to many upscale, buzz-worth restaurants including Crave, Cedar + Stone Urban Table and the FireLake Grill House + Cocktail Bar; along with family fun dining spots like Rainforest Café.
Catch a flick at the huge movie theater or, for adults, have a night of laughter at House of Comedy. Happy hour specials, salsa dancing lessons and live bands every weekend provide plenty of entertainment for the grown-ups.
With the Twin Cities served by all major airlines and an easy drive from most of the Midwest, the Minneapolis/Saint Paul area is hard to beat for summertime family fun.

The Charm of Mykonos
This story begins in Valencia, Spain. I had been planning a backpacking trip around European countries, but I was unsure of where my ultimate destination should be. Then, one day, I stumbled across a picture on the internet.
It depicted a heavenly place and I could not ignore the feeling that it stirred in me. I clicked on the photo to read more about this amazing destination -–Mykonos--, one Greece's many islands, and the one which I knew would be my favorite stop on my backpacking expedition.
{loadposition article-ad}
The Departure
We arrived at Athens airport at noon, and quickly realized that the language barrier would cause us problems. Our English was not enough to get by, and people did not want to stop to help us communicate.
We were unable to understand the complex letters and symbols of the Greek language, and we could only guess about Athen's subway lines and transportation. After getting lost for hours on the train, and touring some of the more neglected areas of the city, we finally found our hotel.Add a comment
The accomodations were horrible: dirty, unfriendly service, and the building was ancient. We could not have expected much for the price we paid, although the website had been much more promising.
By that time it was almost dark, and we went out to do some evening exploring. It was then we discovered that in Athens they sell "iced coffee," called freddo cappuccino. It was the first city in Europe where we found our beloved drink so easily.
They sold iced coffee at every corner and it was ridiculously cheap: one euro! And it was also very tasty. The next morning we discovered that not only the coffee was cheap. Everything was. Food, clothing, perfumes. EVERYTHING.
We spent a second day in Athens, exploring famous sites such as the Acropolis and enjoying the cheap food and shopping. We went to bed early that night, to prepare for our journey to Mykonos the following day.
From Athens to Mykonos
Next morning we reached the ferry station to the island of Mykonos. The trip takes about 4 hours by ferry, and is a very nice and affordable ride. Mykonos is one of the many islands of Greece, the most populated and most famous as a tourist spot. .
It is said that Mykonos is the liveliest island, highlighting the discos on the beach and many clubs. This is one of the aspects that make it famous, however Mykonos is much more than that. it is the perfect place to get lost and find oneself.
Mykonos keeps a traditional architecture, where the common home is white with blue flashes on doors and windows.
Mykonos Island is divided in two parts, Chora and Ano Mera. We arrived at the ferry port and we got on the only bus route that the island seemed to have. We did not have a map or a very good way to reach our hotel, armed with only the brief notes sent from our host.
A Friendly Villager's Directions
We stopped once for directions, and through gestures and a mixture of English and Spanish, we spoke to a handsome and friendly villager who directed us where to go.
We were trying to find Angelika, and we were not sure if it was the name of the owner or the resort's name. After about 15 minutes we decided to get off the bus on instinct, or perhaps simply because of the intense heat. We got off the bus and realized that there were no signs of anything. No streets, no numbers. We definitely were not in the town center, although we could see it from where we were.
It was desolate and hot, and after a few minutes we found a couple and asked if they knew Angelika. We did not know if they could be trusted, but they seemed to understand us very well. We understood that we had to keep walking. Ten meters before reaching what looked like suites, a car driven by a young woman who called my name "Michelle?"
It was Angelika. She was so surprised that we had found the place. She had gone to the port in order to pick us up, and when we weren't there she headed back.
Finally, we had arrived-- and her small resort was beautiful! It was somewhat rustic, but clean and cozy, with a magnificent view. I have to admit that almost any place on the island has a great view. The best part is that we were only twenty minutes walking distance to downtown.
Touring the Town
We were staying for two nights and three days, so we had the opportunity to tour the town, visit cafes, and spend the nights watching the beauty and vastness of the Aegean Sea.
Our favorite beach was called Hornos in the Agios Sostis area. It was a place perfect for sunbathing, swimming in crystal clear water and enjoying the sun while being surrounded by people, tourists and locals alike who, just like us, were just enjoying, drifting, and watching the sailboats pass by.
All the streets of downtown converged at a waterfront esplanade, from where we could see the windmills. In addition to all restaurants, Mykonos was full of handmade art. All kinds of items of clothing, jewelry, ornaments.
We had to visit them all! I wear the jewelry that I got there, and to this day I regret not buying a beautiful handmade lighthouse, as the nature of our trip left room for only the essentials.
Mykonos Giants
The famous Mykonos windmills are the symbol of the island. The images that started this adventure were of those windmills, and I was so excited to visit them in person.
In the village and near the port, there were two museums that seemed very promising: the archaeological museum and the naval museum. We just could not escape the charm of the island. We wanted to see everything, from the town center to the beaches and nature. Our explorations even included a visit to the first temple on the island, an interesting place saturated with visitors young and old.
On the third day, and our last at Angelika's resort, we went to the center to see a friend from Chile who invited us to stay on the other side of the island. The hotel we booked for the three nights was in Ano Mera, a place with fewer residents than Chora, and so we needed to prepare for our stay. While my friends went to do the shopping, I waited in a laundromat and tried to get us a taxi.
It was an extremely frustrating task. Not for the lack of vehicles, but for the excessive throng of tourists arriving in each one. After two hours with no success, I decided to alleviate some stress and beat the heat with a delicious Cappuccino Freddo.
When my friends returned, we finally caught a taxi that took us to one of the most amazing places I had ever seen. The hotel was completely isolated, no buildings around. And although the picture looked beautiful online, it did not do the scene justice. When we finally arrived and we stood on the main terrace, the view was inifinitely more beautiful.
The hotel facilities were quite good, and unlike the previous suite, were not rustic.
The room was charming, every detail well-kept. The hotel had a pool and Jacuzzi. It was not a big property, but had unique access to the beach which made it special. Although it was dark and a bit cold, we could not contain our energy and ran straight to the water.
There were some large rocks in the dark that I must admit worried me, but I was too excited to care. It is a truly invigorating feeling, a feeling of freedom and infinte happiness in so pure and an unspoiled a part of the world.
The Perfect Place to Find Yourself
Next morning we could see everything more clearly and it was even more beautiful. A picture of clean water with huge rocks and small fish, all blue, all green, and all natural. We swam, we snorkled, and then just sat in our hotel room, admiring the view of the sea and the mountains.
Even a trip this perfect must end, and on our last day the hotel staff drove us back into the city center. From there we took a taxi to the Mykonos airport. And while it is quite small, it has connections with major cities in Europe making it an easy destination.
There is no excuse to miss out on Mykonos. By air or by sea you can get the island which will undoubtedly be one of your favorite destinations for life. Writing about my time there, all I could remember was the sea breeze and perfect views, the way the air smelled and the water felt. It truly is the perfect place lose yourself, to find yourself: Mykonos, in the Aegean Sea.

Discover Earth's Forgotten Destinations
By Devinne Zadravec
How easy it is to forget the ephemeral nature of any creation—especially one as grand and essential as a human city. Like the humans that inhabit them, cities have a life: their heartbeat, the footsteps tapped out along the sidewalk, their bones the buildings and structures that lie within.
But what happens when a city dies? It is hard to imagine a city of any consequence suddenly ceasing to exist, but history has proven that this is the fate that awaits any metropolis. In the Atlas of Lost Cities, A Travel Guide to Abandoned and Forsaken Destinations, the author brings us to forgotten places around the world.
The tales of these forgotten cities are mysterious, intriguing stories, and Aude de Tocqueville has detailed them all with depressing clarity. Within the pages of this book are the illustrated stories of these abandoned and forsaken urban destinations, and the fates they met. For history buffs, mystery fanatics, and travel junkies alike, the Atlas of Lost Cities is a highly entertaining read filled with stories of the world's forgotten destinations.
{loadposition article-ad}
Aude de Tocqueville is the author of numerous books about historical or artistic themes, including Monumental Paris and The Most Beautiful Villages of France. She is an award-winning cultural heritage history author who has published more than 20 books in her native France.
Excerpt from the Atlas of Lost Cities
Kolmannskuppe: Entombed in Sand
Be warned: Do not venture in this city if you are afraid of ghosts. Terrified travelers claim to have encountered the spirits of the dead flitting through its abandoned houses, which disappear a little deeper under the sand each day. Located a few kilometers from the port of Lüderitz, the only inhabited city within a 130-kilometer radius Kolmannskuppe is the place to see in the Namib desert. However, would-be visitors have to apply for the appropriate permit, which is issued on an individual basis.
Without this magic key, there is no hope of entering the 26,000-square-kilometer desert zone, which is bordered by the Atlantic Ocean and extends from Lüderitz in southwestern Namibia to Oranjemund, at the border of South Africa, for it is out of bounds to the general public. The reason for this is purely economic: the ground contains diamond deposits, and the authorities therefore choose to keep the area under close control. Indeed the city of Kolmannskuppe (Kolmanskop in Afrikaans) would not have existed but for the diamonds that made it prosperous—and were responsible for its decline.
In 1908, when what is now Namibia was the German protectorate of South-West Africa, a black worker employed on the construction of the railroad between Keetmanshoop and Lüderitz casually picked up a stone that turned out to be a diamond. As soon as the news got out, people flocked to the place. Amid the frenzy, a new town popped out of the ground like a mushroom. Within the space of a few years it had become one of the most prosperous in Africa. Connected to Lüderitz by a tramway, Kolmannskuppe had its own casino, theater, schools, swimming pools, businesses, and a department store selling all the latest goods from Berlin.
The Continent's First X-ray Machine
It even had a hospital that was one of the first on the continent to have an X-ray machine! The most select merchandise was imported from Germany and France, and water, which was more expensive in Namibia than beer, was shipped in at great cost. It should be remembered that money was no problem, and it is even said that the streets were swept every day in order to clear them of the sand that obstinately returned on the wind. However, all the commodities and comforts of this colonialist paradise, this "little Germany" were reserved for the engineers and managers of the German company to whom exclusive rights of extraction had been granted.
The black workers who did the toughest jobs were housed with their families on a separate site, or, if single, accommodated in dormitories. The First World War, which saw the administration of South-West Africa pass to South Africa under a League of Nations mandate, made no impact on the prosperity of Kolmannskuppe.
At its peak in the 1920s, the town boasted more than one thousand inhabitants, almost three hundred of them European. During the following decade, times were less good: adversely affected by the discovery of new deposits in the Oranjemund region and an ensuing fall in price, the former "pearl of the desert" declined as its diamond seams dried up.Add a comment
Population Drifted Away
The end was close. Gradually the population drifted away, although it was not until 1956, the year the hospital closed for good, that the last remaining residents packed their bags and left.
Once deserted, the township sank into oblivion until 1990, when the Namibian government and the De Beers Company, partners in the exploitation of the prohibited zone, decided to turn it into a tourist site. The idea was a good one: the buildings emerging from the dunes, the wooden facades faded by the sun, and the interiors invaded by the sands transformed the place into one of southern Namibia's major attractions.
Guides were trained to tell visitors about the history of the town and a small museum was established in the former casino, where precious stones could also be bought as souvenirs. This return of life to Kolmannskuppe in no way detracts from the strangeness of the place, however. A number of houses have been restored and refurbished in the simultaneously elegant and functional style of the Wilhelminian era, giving the impression they might have been abandoned yesterday.
Others have been preserved exactly as their occupants left them, with wallpaper and pictures still clinging to the walls, with baths and kitchens still in place, with counters still visible in the stores and machinery in the workshops—only with everything having been exposed to the ravages of time and sand. Everything here is as if locked into an eternal process of gradual decay, and it is difficult no to succumb to the ambiguous charms of this aesthetic of chaos.

Ocean Soul Women's Retreat
Reset your mind and body in the tropical paradise of Bali
By Devinne Zadravec
Lush fields. Swaying palm trees. Pristine beaches decorated by aquamarine waters. Bali, Indonesia is a true paradise destination. From the awe-inspiring landscape alone, it's not difficult to see how this tropical paradise earned the nickname "Land of the Gods".
But the name goes beyond the scenery—Bali is a deeply spiritual, powerful place. The land is ancient and the culture rich. An energy seems to permeate all life there, a natural and beautiful pulse that is echoed in every lap of the waves and rustling of the trees.
{loadposition article-ad}
If you're a woman and if this sounds like your dream escape, then you're in luck. Bali is also home to Ocean Soul Retreat, a women's-only wellness program designed to pamper, relax, and nourish the mind and body.
Ocean Soul Retreat aims to create a nurturing environment that allows women travelers from all over the world to refresh their minds, energize their bodies, and reconnect with their inner spirit. .
At Ocean Soul, guests can participate in a wide variety of activities to relax and soak in some of Bali's famous energy. Personalized yoga and meditation sessions offer a way to relax and calm the soul. Surf lessons are also a popular activity--and one that is open to all levels of experience.
The meals are designed to be deeply replenishing, so that the body may be nurtured with fresh and delicious wholefoods. Women who participate in the retreat will learn new skills, reset their minds and bodies, and leave feeling deeply connected to themselves and the people and land around them. Ocean Soul aims to make these new skills useful in everyday life back home, so retreat participants can take what they've learned and integrate these healthy new practices into their daily lives.
Ocean Soul Retreat was founded on four core beliefs:
The importance of the mind, body & soul connection.
Wellness is an integrated approach. Ocean Soul focuses on reconnecting the mind, body and soul through physical, spiritual, emotional and nutritional elements. Carving out moments from busy everyday life allows our mind, body and soul to reconnect, reset, and rest, and truly deliver optimal wellbeing.
Food is the best medicine.
Ocean Soul Retreat delivers a delicious customized wholefood menu designed by an Australian naturopath and holistic nutritionist. Each meal floods the body with nutrients, antioxidants and healthy fats. By following a wholefood diet, it provides women with the correct tools to balance their hormones and energy levels, clear toxins and repairs cellular damage.
The benefit of body movement.
By keeping the body active and exercising on a daily basis women are more likely to feel happy and balanced emotionally and physically. It has been proven that connecting with nature enhances this experience, giving us the chance to really listen to the body and mind.
The power of energy work.
Energy improves the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual well being. Energy work connects us to our self, allowing us to relax, gain clarity and to feel more balanced. At Ocean Soul, energy work is a key factor in contributing to the wellness experience.
Speaking with some of Ocean Soul's past retreatants, it is instantly clear that time spent at Ocean Soul is a profoundly memorable and important experience. Pip Hodson, mother of two from Melbourne Australia, embarked on her first Ocean Soul retreat last October in search of some much needed "me-time."
"This retreat really helped me gain a better sense of finding time for myself. As a busy mother and company director, I am constantly putting others before myself. To have such amazing teachers, instructors, a space to breath, relax and just " be," (as well as excellent well-prepared food!) was like a new lease on life for me. I came back calmer, happier and healthier and with a lot more energy and zest for life. I think all women need a good week of time out for themselves."
Another participant, Sarah Deboer, also of Melbourne, had similarly rave reviews about her time with Ocean Soul.
"[For me, an] amazing and life changing experience was the holistic component of the retreat. Elisa, who was my holistic guide brought, out emotions I had no idealay so dormant inside me. I felt lighter as each emotion was acknowledged and released. An extremely beautiful transformation occurred [during the retreat] and positively effects me to this day".
The retreats run for a week multiple times throughout the year. Depending on the type of accommodation chosen, the price ranges from $2595 USD to $3495 USD, and includes all food, amenities, and access to activities.
Participants can also choose a theme for their stay at Ocean Soul, with varying options such as fitness, holistic heaven, and surf & yoga retreats.
Choosing one of these options allows participants to tailor their experience to exactly suit their needs and goals. Though quite popular, each retreat is capped at 14 members to ensure a quiet and very personalized experience for all retreatants.
But whichever option you may choose, it is clear that your time at Ocean Soul will be a truly wonderful experience.

I found myself swimming through a grey and deserted battlefield, littered with the lost lives of its coral comrades, fish swimming around in circles, aimlessly about like demented citizens in a ghost town.
{loadposition article-ad}
Silently drifting and surviving off of the scraps left behind. Homeless and abandoned, living out the rest of their prison sentenced lives here within the waters, surrounded by the grey death-rubble of their former homes.
Piles of dead coral lined the ground, hundreds of years of evolution wiped out in one swift blow. The others who took the journey with us that morning to Una Una Island in the Togeans were diving below; I was snorkeling one the surface, speechless and bewildered by the massacre.
Coral Decline
The Togean Islands, located in Central Sulawesi Indonesia, have been a tourist destination for decades. Ali, one of the instructors here at Black Marlin Resort on Kadidiri Island is a local who grew up on Una Una, our destination for the day. Una Una is a volcanic island that was quite prosperous before it erupted on the 23rd of July, 1982, when Ali was 5 years old. When the volcano erupted, it destroyed much of what his family had, dislocating him to Wakai, one of the larger Togean islands closer to the mainland, for the years of his youth.
Ali has been working in an attempt to unify the police, the local fishermen, the resorts and the reef and is hated for his activism by the locals who are using the wealth of the oceans to feed their families. Ali says that they are not to be pitied though; greed is the driving factor in the bombing and destruction of these ecosystems that are becoming more and more endangered.
Dynamiting the Reefs
He tells us how it all began in 1997 when the first dynamite blasts began. The local fishermen were seeking out yellow tail forsier that travelled in big groups. These fish sold for good money and were the key to quick and temporary wealth. Once the dynamite blasts were complete, it is easy to catch the fish with a net. The dynamite blasts occurred by day and single-handedly wiped out hundreds of years of evolution in a swift blow.
Cyanide poisoning is the second favorite method used by the locals and is even more dangerous than bombing. Cyanide poisoning began in 1998 and is used primarily in search of Barramundi and Gropers.
Locals will come by night, equipped with long tubes and cyanide. They dive down deep, use the long tubes to breathe and drop the cyanide down which causes for the fish to get dizzy and float to the top. They then catch the fish with a net and make their escape. The locals about know nothing about the dangers of the waters such as nitrogen poisoning and other problems that come with increased pressure and often times stay under the water for far too long.
"Some people say that this is the only way to survive my life, by bombing and destroying the reef for one payday; bullshit! This is bullshit, and I'm the enemy now. I'm the enemy for saying something!"
And the coral not being bombed? What has not been destroyed by the destructive fishing of the locals is slowly losing its color and life due to coral bleaching.
Coral bleaching is thought to be caused by the increase in water temperatures as well as ocean acidification. Ali tells us that in the past five years, sea temperatures have risen from 25-26C to 30-31. This temperature increase has caused massive amounts of population declines within the fish as well as a large amount of bleaching within the coral.Add a comment
At this point, it is difficult to imagine a solution that would save the reefs in the Togean.
Simply put, coral bleaching occurs due to the overheating of coral. Coral ecosystems operate very close to their maximum temperature threshold and even temperature increases of 1 degree Celsius can have dramatic impact upon the coral ecosystem. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) says the 95 percent of all U.S. coral reefs are expected to see ocean temperatures that can lead to bleaching sometime this year (2016).
Ali's Solution:
Ali believes that the only solution is turning the area into a national park. This is a curious suggestion in a country so plagued by government corruption. National park classification usually results in money being collected from tourists and put directly into the pockets of local government officials.
Ali believes that if he is there he can ensure that the money could be allocated to the government (30%), the employees of the national park (30%), to the locals, to help prevent bombing and poisoning (20%) and the rest can be used to create a restoration program for the coral (20%). Ali says that this is the only possible solution to attempt to save the coral in the area.
Unity is necessary and he believes he would be able to unite the government, the police, the locals and the resorts.
Even if this were made possible, the life of the coral seems quite endangered. Even without the locals bombing and poisoning, the increase in water temperature itself creates such a large threat that it seems nearly insurmountable.
Many scientists in coral conservation say that the only way to protect the coral from these giant bleaching events is by ceasing carbon emissions into the atmosphere. This is a happening that seems quite unlikely at this point in time.
Although this article has mostly focused on the negative implications of climate change and reckless fishing habits on the coral, there is still much beauty and magnificent life hidden beneath the waters. I would highly recommend you get out and see the coral while you can. With the predictions put out by NOAA and water temperature trends, the future is looking a bit bleak for the beautiful coral habitats.
Even with the bombing and poisoning of the coral, some Indonesian residents and diving fanatics claim that this is the best place for diving they have been to in Indonesia and in the past six years the change has been dramatic in the amount of dead corals and fish in the area. The diving is still splendid and large schools of fish are still present within the area.
The Low-Down:
The Togean Islands are located in Central Sulawesi, a 4-hour ferry ride from Ampana. Ferries cost around $6 USD to Wakau where it is easy to hitch a free boat to the island of your choice. There are many camping spots and we were allowed to camp for free outside of one of the resorts and only pay for meals. This could be due to the pretty girls I was traveling with and the Indonesians infatuation with them.
If you choose the more typical route, you can stay in a pretty decent room for anywhere from $10-20 USD a night, including 3 meals. Half day trips range from $5-10 dollars USD per person, $5 dollars for the trip and $5 for the snorkel rentals. Diving trips cost around $35 USD per dive and are said to be some of the most beautiful dives in all of Indonesia.
Large turtles, sharks, dolphins, strange fish, beautiful coral can all be found in this unique location. Ali was an absolutely incredible guide and provided us with so much information on the area and his thoughts on the coral decline. He is also quick to buy beers for his guests and allowed for us to stay in his room one night when it was raining.
Incredible hospitality and crystal clear waters make this a desired vacation spot for you and your young ones--it is an incredible place to visit and the coral is rapidly declining, so see it while you can.

Adventure Among the Leopards
Helping to convince locals to let them live
By Sue McVerry
The Adventure Begins
"Don't worry, by day three you'll be experts," said Alisa, our Expedition Leader. It was our first briefing at Okambara camp deep in the Namibian bush. Eleven of us had arrived that day to begin our volunteer assignment as the "hands and feet" of a conservation project run by Biosphere Expeditions.
{loadposition article-ad}
Our job was to collect the data to help their scientists conserve the different species of wildlife - leopards, giraffes, rhinos, elephants and many more. For the last couple of hours Alisa had explained how we would go about this.
She was obviously used to dealing with anxious volunteers. We didn't share her confidence and glanced uneasily at one another, worrying about our ability to cope with the challenges that lay ahead.
Earlier we had introduced ourselves. Our youngest members were Rebekka, 23, from Switzerland, and Jeff from Canada who was 27. Jan, from Toronto, was our elder stateswoman at 74. I was approaching 60 and the only English member of this mini United Nations.
We would need to pass driving tests in 4 x 4 trucks the size of tractors and learn how to change their huge tires. Punctures were a daily occurrence in the thorny African savannah.
Venom Extractor PracticeAdd a comment
We practiced using venom extractors on each other in case of snake bites. We learned how to use compasses, range-finders, radios and satellite navigation systems to find our way around the 100 square miles of Okambara. There was something called telemetry used to track wild elephants. For a technophobe like me this did not bode well.
We would walk miles, sweating in the heat of the day and freeze in the cold African dawn as we conducted early morning game counts. Well, I thought, at least I can handle that. I had prepared myself for this trip, keeping my fitness levels high by swimming and walking regularly.
We were convinced that Alisa was wrong – we would NEVER be experts. But we were here to learn and to work and it was an adventure, right? Right! And the one thing we all had in common was a spirit of adventure.
Over our dinner barbecue that evening and a fortifying beer under the stars watching a herd of zebra visiting the waterhole, we reassured one another that it would all be fine and retired to our bungalows feeling ready for anything – well almost.
The next morning, bright and early – well dark and early actually as it was well before dawn we were "up and at 'em!" Muffled up in layers of fleeces, thermal vests, woolly hats and gloves that could be shed as the sun rose we arrived for breakfast, loaded our rucksacks with food, sunscreen and at least two litres of water each and set off - leaving our comfort zones way behind us.
Busy Days
Every day we split into three groups, took a truck each and set off in the grey early morning light. There are few landmarks in the African savannah and so we were on a steep learning curve with our navigational skills.
We quickly learned how to put "Fred in his shed" (the term used to find your initial location using a compass) and to read the GPS to check where exactly we were heading.
One of my personal highlights was driving a truck around this wild and beautiful landscape transporting my fellow volunteers on the back. My navigational skills might not be up to much but I proved to be a good driver and it was each according to their particular skills.
Ed from Washington DC proved to be an excellent navigator and the division of labor worked brilliantly.
We had strict instructions not to exceed twenty kilometres per hour. Alisa had told us that "every animal makes a hole" and "every bush has thorns the size of logs." She was right. Punctures were inevitable and most journeys were interrupted by frequent tire changes.
The record was three on the same day. "If my friends and family could see me now," was a recurring thought as I maneuvered my truck carefully through huge ditches and deep gullies, feeling like Mr T. Well I wanted an adventure and sure enough I was having one!
The Leopard Project
The main aim was to monitor the behavior of the leopard population living in the area. This was to help reassure local farmers that they were not preying on their cattle.
We had been told that before the project began the farmers had felt the "only good leopard was a dead one." If these beautiful animals were not to be hunted to extinction it was vital that they were not seen as dangerous predators.
So how do you monitor leopard behavior given that they are nocturnal and roam vast areas? Well, you catch one of course. Then you immobilise it and fit a radio collar so you can monitor his or her every move through your strategically-placed hidden cameras without disturbing the animal. Simple.
First - Catch Your Leopard!
Not surprisingly catching leopards proved pretty difficult. Our job as volunteers was to try to entice a leopard to walk into one of the five box traps, basically a large cage, that were placed at various points where the animals were known to hunt.
No, we were not expected to pose as prey! Instead we would crawl into the box traps and hang a huge chunk of raw meat – antelope or wildebeest for example.
Then we would set the trap, camouflaging it with branches from nearby thorn bushes, cover our tracks with dust and creep away. A few hours later one of the teams would drive around to check all the traps to see if we had been successful.
Alisa had warned us not to be despondent if no animal took the bait. The project had been underway for a couple of years and leopard catches were by no means an everyday occurrence.
Often when we went to check the traps a porcupine or other small animal was sitting waiting for us – but no leopard. We tried not to feel disappointed and went about the rest of our day-to-day work.
Elephant Tracking
As well as trying to recruit a leopard to the project we tracked wild elephants in order to monitor their feeding patterns. Each afternoon one group would be assigned the task of locating the resident herd.
For this we learned a new skill called telemetry. We would take turns standing at the highest point, which was usually on top of the truck, holding a piece of equipment that resembled a TV aerial high above our head, rotating it slowly, whilst another volunteer held the monitor which would make a beeping sound if the lead female who was fitted with a radio collar was within the vicinity. If she was there the rest of the herd would not be far away.
Now you may think elephants would be easy to spot but you would be wrong. Several times they gave us the run-around and we would return to camp hot and frustrated with blank data sheets.
But when we were successful and came upon our group of elephants, nine in all including a baby male, what joy it was to sit quietly in the truck and observe them as they strolled majestically around feeding on the low bushes that made up their vegetarian diet.
Tracks and Scats
Every morning a team would be assigned to this task which meant walking a particular track known to be used during the nights by leopards out hunting. We would walk slowly, eyes on the ground, looking for tracks.
When we found them we would record the exact position and the direction in which the animal had been headed. We became pretty good at distinguishing between leopard, cheetah and hyena tracks without recourse to our charts. Yes, you could almost say we had become experts.
"Scat" is the term used for animal droppings. Rubber gloves and plastic containers at the ready we would collect samples to be analysed in the laboratory.
It seemed that the leopards at Okambara preferred the various species of antelope, Impala and Oryx for example, to cattle. This provided further reassurance to the farmers that the cattle so vital to their livelihoods were not being preyed upon.
Our Leopard!
One memorable Saturday morning, after many days finding our box traps empty we received an excited radio message from the team checking them.
They had seen from a distance that something was in the trap. Imagine their surprise when they drew closer expecting one of the usual by-catch species and were growled at.
Yes, at last. We had caught a leopard during the night! It turned out to be a seven-year-old male, huge, weighing 70 kilos and spectacularly beautiful.
The vet was called and arrived with his team who set up a field hospital in the bush where our leopard would have his radio collar fitted and various tests carried out to check his general health.
We volunteers gathered to await our instructions. We had been told by Alisa to "do exactly what Walter (the vet) tells you. Do it quickly and without hesitation as time is of the essence here.
We need to get this animal awake and back to the wild as soon as possible." I think it is fair to say we were all a little worried that we might make some ghastly mistake. I know I was.
First the animal was immobilised. He wasn't too keen on going to sleep and needed four separate shots of anaesthetic with a fifteen minute gap between each one.
Veterinary Work
Then we volunteers were tasked with gently easing our slumbering leopard from the cage and carrying him on a tarpaulin up to the field hospital where the veterinary team were ready to begin work. His eyes were still wide open – he looked pretty mad – so the first job was to cover his eyes with a mask to avoid any problems caused by the lights and the dust.
By this time it was dark. It is difficult to describe the emotions I felt, being so close to this fierce yet helpless wild animal. By the light of our head-torches we hauled him a couple of hundred yards over rough ground. He was heavy and our arms and legs began to ache as we navigated through the thick thorn bushes.
I remember hearing Jeff who was walking behind me telling me to take "big strides" so he wouldn't bump into me. I remember glancing down and seeing the leopard's huge haunches and tail just an inch or two from where my hand held tightly to the tarpaulin.
Once he was lying on the operating table we all stood around him awaiting further instructions, hoping we would be up to the job. At one point the vet, who was working by the lights of the truck headlamps, handed me two vials of leopard blood and asked me to keep gently shaking them so the blood would not coagulate. Again I experienced that feeling of amazement at what I was actually doing.
The animal was helpless, vulnerable, and we had been given instructions about respecting his dignity. Photographs could be taken but we were asked not to publish them on social media or anywhere else.
We were allowed to gently touch him once the vet had finished his work and we took turns to carefully stroke his coarse fur. I think most of us had tears in our eyes at the privilege we had been afforded.
Then we carried him further into the bush where he would later wake. The vet and one of our scientists waited nearby in the truck to ensure that he was safe until he did so and two hours later he stood, shook himself down and loped off into the bush sporting his new collar.
From now on the team scientists would know him as LO75. He was none the wiser for his experience but he had given eleven starry-eyed volunteers the experience of their lives.
We may not have become conservation experts during our time at Okambara but we had learned new skills, made new friends and had an adventure that none of us will ever forget.
Sue McVerry: Everyone has those chats with themselves about "what I would do if I wasn't doing this." Mine was always something to do with conservation. Since retiring from my hospital job I have spent time travelling and volunteering overseas. So far I have had adventures in Rwanda, Tanzania, Namibia and Antarctica to name just a few. I have no intention of stopping yet.

Citizenship values and desistance
Why study citizenship and crime?
A criminologically informed notion of citizenship
Socialization and resocialization towards citizenship values
Desistance and citizenship
Operationalizing and measuring citizenship
Accounting for the relationship between citizenship values and desistance
Here's the deal here. Hugh Benny has reformed his wayward life and
has become a born-again Good Citizen.
(Vincent Hannah, Heat, 1996, Michael Mann)
In Michael Mann's film Heat, the mean-talking police detective Vincent Hannah, as part of an ongoing case and in order to extract information relating to that investigation, assaults a known 'face', Hugh Benny. Having extracted the information he needs, Hannah then calls one of his colleagues to relay what he has learnt from Benny. Benny lies at Hannah's feet, bloody and bruised, looking semi-conscious whilst Hannah utters the lines above. Benny's 'reform' looks enforced and he himself hardly looks the model of a 'good citizen'. In the film, we neither see nor hear of Benny again. His 'reform', such that it was, remains problematic for all sorts of reasons.
Recently, the relationship between being a 'good citizen' and one's involvement (or otherwise) in crime has drawn much interest from criminologists (e.g. Young, 1999; McNeill, 2000; Karstedt and Farrall, forthcoming). Despite the inherent 'logic' of exploring the relationship between citizenship and engagement in offending, very few of these authors explicitly outline why they believe it important (or relevant) to link the concept of citizenship with patterns of offending. In many respects too, we feel, these investigations are carried out in absentia from the messiness and complexities of data and, to some degree therefore,

Last night quietly he walked through my mind
As I lay searching for sleep, his arms reached out
He whispered my name
As he brushed a tear from my cheek
And then those funny, familiar, forgotten feelings
Started walkin' all over my mind
It's sad so sad to watch love go bad
But a true love would not have gone wrong
I'm just thankful for the good times we've had
For without them I could not go on
With all those funny, familiar, forgotten feelings
A-walkin' all over my mind
I must go on, be strong
Though a million teardrops may fall
Before those funny, familiar, forgotten feelings
Stopped walkin' all over my mind

Positive Clinical Results On The Use Of Bacterin's OsteoSponge® SC Product For Regeneration Of Subchondral Bone Published In Foot & Ankle Specialist
BELGRADE, Mont., Sept. 11, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Bacterin International Holdings, Inc. (NYSE MKT: BONE), a leader in the development of revolutionary bone graft material and antimicrobial coatings for medical applications, announces that the first clinical results using the OsteoSponge SC product for regeneration of subchondral bone in complex lesions of the talus involving advanced subchondral bone damage have been published in the peer reviewed journal, Foot & Ankle Specialist. The article reports six month post-operative outcomes on a series of seven patients which included pain and activity scales as well as radiographic findings. Each of the seven patients reported a clinically significant reduction in pain and improvement in activity at six months post-operation relative to their preoperative baseline scores. MRI confirmed graft incorporation and restoration of an intact subchondral plate. The Company estimates the current annual market size addressing subchondral defects in the foot, ankle and knee to be approximately $1.7 billion annually and growing as more advanced repair technologies become available. OsteoSponge SC, a form of OsteoSponge designed to be used in subchondral bone repair, has delivered favorable clinical outcomes. Bacterin believes OsteoSponge SC could potentially and significantly change the standard of care for the treatment of damaged subchondral bone."We are pleased with the outcome of this clinical series demonstrating an increase in the quality of life for these patients," said Guy Cook, Bacterin's CEO. "These early clinical outcomes using the OsteoSponge SC product provide another validation of Bacterin's core mission in providing innovative, safe, reliable, and cost effective solutions for the medical needs of patients." The company has begun a 75 patient registry for OsteoSponge SC and has received IRB approval in five of six sites and the first patient was enrolled in July. To date, OsteoSponge SC has been implanted in more than 250 patients and continues to produce excellent clinical outcomes.

Parks for People—Philadelphia
For the 80 percent of Americans who live in cities and metropolitan areas, urban parks and green spaces offer the closest outdoor recreation opportunity and touch of nature. Green2015—an independent study commissioned by Philadelphia Parks & Recreation—found that one in eight Philadelphia residents does not have easy access to a public park or green space within a ten-minute walk from home.
To help address the need for green space in Philadelphia's underserved neighborhoods, we established our Parks for People–Philadelphia program to work in partnership with Philadelphia Parks & Recreation, the School District of Philadelphia, the Philadelphia Water Department, other public partners, and local communities and organizations. Together, we are creating outdoor green play spaces in the schoolyards and recreation centers that need them most.
Launched in 2012, our first transformed sites were the William Dick Elementary School and Hank Gathers Recreation Center in North Philadelphia. Read the design journal to see how we worked with students to design and build a new green schoolyard.
We continue to convert blacktop to green space at schools and city recreation centers throughout Philadelphia (see "Projects like this") to re-design and renovate these neighborhood green spaces.
As we work toward completing these sites in 2016, we also recently renewed our commitment to the Philadelphia community with the exciting announcement of our program expansion. Notably, we will be working with the School District of Philadelphia to green 20 more schoolyards over the next 5 years.

Since 1972, The Trust for Public Land has protected more than 3.3 million acres and completed more than 5,400 park and conservation projects.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW Y - to be continued

So cute! She looks wonderfull. i Adore the expression Luna's giving here! lovely work overall.
Lol her butt kicked the ball
Catch the ball luna!!
That moonbutt...
I call this moon-bouncing
I didn't Luna was that athletic, good job.
I like the color of her mane in broad sunlight.
Now THAT is how you use your flank.
She looks so feirce hahah I love the pose
this is a cool picture, just as i know you make them

Cute'n spunky. Luna's such a fun character, ain't she?
Another one that was great as a sketch and is a lot of fun as a finished piece. Love to see how it comes together in color
Didn't the Mayan (or perhaps it was the Aztecs; all i remember is it was one of those pre-colonisation peoples from Central America) had a game where you could only hit the ball with your hips?
Probably the Aztecs. I only know this from two sources: Choose Your Adventure Books and An episode of Kuzco's New School (I think that's what it was called.)
Rump-a-Bump-Bump! It's great to see you bringing some of your sketches to life in full color. This is one of my favorites because of how she's both determined and playful, having a great time with friends on the beach.
Hip check!
Aww, wonderful, she seems like she has a bit of competitive streak, seem to like to play
Hip-checks: Hockey, volleyball, or a fight; they're just what the doctor ordered!
nice :3

Little Mali and her brother, Bima There's some major medical drama unfolding at Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium right now. It seems that Mali, one
Little Mali and her brother, BimaThere's some major medical drama unfolding at Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium right now. It seems that Mali, one of the zoo's two endangered Sumatran tiger cubs, went into cardiac arrest last night following surgery and is clinging to life. The zoo just sent out information on the 5-month-old tiger saying that her survival chances look "grim."
The bone was removed, but in the hours after the surgery Mali went into cardiac arrest and had to be resuscitated by zoo staff. They brought her back to consciousness, but vets think she suffered brain damage from the loss of oxygen.
The zoo's head veterinarian Karen Wolf says she's not quitting yet though, saying in a statement:
"We haven't given up hope and are continuing to monitor her around-the-clock and provide intensive treatment."
Here's some more pics, courtesy of zoo staffer Whitney DalBalcon.

Hang in there, Mali.

Additional Information
Important InformationAbout Asociación Arariwa
Asociación Arariwa is a large non-governmental organization that started offering microcredit in 1994 to improve the quality of life, skills and equity of the population in the rural Cusco region of Peru. Arariwa serves the southern Andean provinces of Peru, and is distinguished by its efforts to reach the very poor, who often live in isolated rural areas. Arariwa fosters village banking, supports savings accounts, promotes access to education, and empowers women entrepreneurs (who make up 78% of its borrowers).
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Kiva allows our Field Partners to re-use the same photo for individual borrowers that have been posted on Kiva's website once before in a 24 month period, and we allow them to re-use group photos for up to 24 months, provided that 80% of the current group's membership is represented.
Taking, collecting, and uploading photos of borrowers is one of the most challenging elements of using Kiva for our Field Partners. In order to make Kiva easier for Field Partners to use, we have allowed them to post successive and concurrent loans without taking a new photo of the borrower if the criteria above are met.

Four cars tangle on Interstate 89
RICHMOND A Waitsfield man was involved in a four-car accident on Interstate 89 Wednesday morning, according to state police.
Stephen M. Haskell, 41, was northbound when two vehicles collided in front of him and he could not avoid crashing into them, nor could a driver behind him avoid his vehicle, police said.
State police say Alexander M. Bown, 23, of Burlington, pulled into the left lane without yielding to Donna L. Wright, 49, of Randolph Center, who was in that lane. The two collided, and Wrights vehicle hit the guardrail, spun 180 degrees and sat in the middle of the road.
State police said Christina D. Biesadecki, 26, of Jericho, hit the back of Haskells vehicle after he struck the others.
Police said no one was hurt. Bowns and Biesadeckis vehicles sustained minor damage, and Haskells and Wrights had moderate damage.
Police said the investigation of the crash continues, with legal action pending.MORE IN This Just In
