Magnificent Mile
- +1 312 642 3570
- visit website
- 625 North Michigan Avenue
- Chicago,IL60611
No trip to Chicago is complete without a stroll down North Michigan Avenue, or "the Magnificent Mile" to those in the know (which includes most, if not all, tourists). This stretch of almost a mile to the north of the Chicago river is home to most of the city's powerhouse retailers, which attract locals and visitors year-round. It is worth noting that all land to the east of Michigan Avenue is landfill; it was built up from debris from the Great Fire of 1871. Also of note is the Chicago Water Tower, located at Chicago and Michigan Avenues, which provided much of the water to put out the Fire. For a break from shopping sprees, head beneath the street to the Billy Goat Tavern (stairs are at Illinois Street) for a cheezborger.

- Chicago,IL60611
When Louisa May Alcott penned her classic book Little Women, she probably never imagined that an American retail center would someday pay such a complete tribute to young girls, too. Just around the corner from the Magnificent Mile shopping district, this three-story complex features a playhouse showcasing The American Girl Review, a cafe offering delicious meals, and a shop featuring American Girls dolls and clothing. Girls aged seven and up will find this an irresistible getaway.

John Hancock Center

- 875 North Michigan Avenue
- Chicago,IL60611
Chicago has two giant black buildings with observation decks- the Willis Tower downtown, and the John Hancock Center, which is at the top of the Magnificent Mile. Both are popular with tourists, but given its location in Chicago's main shopping district, a visit to the Hancock Center can be more of an afterthought than a planned excursion. Visitors must pay a fee to visit the observatory, but can go to the Signature Room, a restaurant on a floor above the observatory deck, for "free" with the purchase of a drink at the bar (or an expensive meal, if you prefer). The views from either the observatory or the Signature Room are impressive, and on a clear day visitors can see up to four states- Wisconsin, Michigan, Indiana, and, of course, Illinois.

You cannot afford to miss the Navy Pier's most visible attraction, the 150 foot-high Ferris wheel. This fun ride is open year-round. It is not only fun for kids but for all age groups. It is modeled after the very first Ferris wheel, which was built for Chicago's 1893 World's Columbian Exposition. On the Navy Pier Ferris wheel you can enjoy breathtaking views of the Chicago skyline and lake-front. During the evening, the illuminated Ferris wheel with thousands of sparkling lights is a sight that one must not miss.
Day Note:
Museum Campus and Museum of Science and Industry:
The Museum Campus is a 57-acre lakefront park that connects the Field Museum with the Shedd Aquarium and the Adler Planetarium. Large museums can be overwhelming so it pays to do your homework before you arrive and find a self-guided tour that works well for your family. It is also important to note that each museum could easily warrant a day-long visit - plan your visit accordingly.
The Field Museum has tours...

If you only have time for one museum, the Field Museum is it. Full of history, excitement, and exploration!
As part of the Museum Campus on the lakefront (in addition to the Shedd Aquarium and Adler Planetarium), the Field Museum of Natural History is always at or toward the top of the list when it comes to popular cultural attractions in Chicago. The Field Museum was originally named the Columbian Museum of Chicago for the World's Columbian Exposition in 1893, but changed its name to honor Marshall Field, its first major benefactor, in 1905. Since 2000, the Field Museum has housed Sue, the world's most complete and best preserved Tyrannosaurus Rex to date, in its main hall. The building itself was designed by famous Chicago architect Daniel Burnham, the mind behind the White City at the 1893 Columbian Exposition. Admission is free on the Second Monday of every month, and on additional days throughout the year as designated on the Field's website: www.fieldmuseum.org/plan_visit/free_days.htm.

John G. Shedd Aquarium

- 1200 S. Lake Shore Dr
- Chicago,IL60605
Our Local Expert Says:
Great activity for the entire family, located on Museum Campus.
The Shedd is one of the world's largest indoor aquariums, and houses thousands of river, lake, and sea denizens in standard aquarium tanks and elaborate new habitats within its octagon-shaped marble building. The only problem with the Shedd is its steep admission price ($24.95 for adults). You can keep your costs down by buying the "Aquarium Only" admission, but you'll miss some of the most stunning exhibits. A CityPass can save you money if you visit enough of the other included attractions.
The first thing you'll see as you enter is the Caribbean Coral Reef. This 90,000-gallon circular tank occupies the Beaux Arts-style central rotunda, entertaining spectators who press up against the glass to ogle divers feeding nurse sharks, barracudas, stingrays, and a hawksbill sea turtle. A roving camera connected to video monitors on the tank's periphery gives visitors close-ups of the animals inside, but I'd recommend sticking around to catch one of the daily feedings, when a diver swims around the tank and (thanks to a microphone) talks about the species and their eating habits.
The exhibits surrounding the Caribbean coral reef re-create marine habitats around the world. The best is Amazon Rising: Seasons of the River, a rendering of the Amazon basin that showcases frogs and other animals as well as fish (although the sharp-toothed piranhas are pretty cool).
You'll pay extra to see the other Shedd highlights, but they're quite impressive, so I'd suggest shelling out for them if you plan to spend more than an hour here. The Oceanarium, with a wall of windows revealing the lake outside, replicates a Pacific Northwest coastal environment and creates the illusion of one uninterrupted expanse of sea. On a fixed performance schedule in a large pool flanked by an amphitheater, a crew of friendly trainers puts dolphins through their paces of leaping dives, breaches, and tail walking. Check out the Oceanarium schedule as soon as you get to the Shedd; seating can fill up quickly, so you'll want to get here early. If you're visiting during a summer weekend, you may also want to buy your Oceanarium ticket in advance to make sure you can catch a show that day. (Note: The Oceanarium will be closed for structural maintenance from Sept 2008 until early June 2009.)
Wild Reef -- Sharks at Shedd is a series of 26 connected habitats that house a Philippine coral reef patrolled by sharks and other predators. The floor-to-ceiling windows bring the toothy swimmers up close and personal (they even swim over your head at certain spots).
If you want a quality sit-down meal in a restaurant with a spectacular view of Lake Michigan, check out Soundings. There's also a family-friendly cafeteria.
Allow 2 to 3 hours.

Adler Planetarium and Astronomy Museum
- visit website
- 1300 S. Lake Shore Dr
- Chicago,IL60605
The building may be historic (it was the first planetarium in the Western Hemisphere), but some of the attractions here will captivate the most jaded video-game addict.
Your first stop should be the modern Sky Pavilion, where the don't-miss experience is the StarRider Theater. Settle down under the massive dome, and you'll take a half-hour interactive virtual-reality trip through the Milky Way and into deep space, featuring a computer-generated 3-D-graphics projection system and controls in the armrest of each seat. Six high-resolution video projectors form a seamless image above your head -- you'll feel as if you're literally floating in space. If you're looking for more entertainment, the Sky Theater shows movies with an astronomical bent; recent shows have included Secrets of Saturn and Mars Now!
The planetarium's exhibition galleries feature a variety of displays and interactive activities. If you're only going to see one exhibit (and have kids in tow), check out Shoot For the Moon, an exhibit on lunar exploration that's full of interactive stations (it also showcases the personal collection of astronaut Jim Lovell, captain of the infamous Apollo 13 mission, who now lives in the Chicago suburbs). Other exhibits include Bringing the Heavens to Earth, which traces the ways different cultures have tried to make sense of astronomical phenomena, and From the Night Sky to the Big Bang, which includes artifacts from the planetarium's extensive collection of astronomical instruments (although suitable for older children, these can get a bit boring for little ones unless they're real astronomy nuts).
The museum's cafe provides views of the lakefront and skyline. On the first Friday evening of the month, the museum stays open until 10pm, and visitors can view dramatic close-ups of the moon, the planets, and distant galaxies through a closed-circuit monitor connected to the planetarium's Doane Observatory telescope.
Allow 2 hours, more if you want to see more than one show.

- 57th St. and Lake Shore Dr
- Chicago,IL60637
Our Local Expert Says:
It may be a little further out of the way than other large Chicago museums, but it is worth the trek for the enjoyment of the whole family.
Even if you don't plan on spending the day in Hyde Park, you'll likely pass through the neighborhood on your way to one of Chicago's most popular tourist attractions. The massive Museum of Science and Industry is the granddaddy of interactive museums, with some 2,000 exhibits. Schedule at least 3 hours here; a comprehensive visit can take all day, especially if you catch an OMNIMAX movie.
While the museum is constantly adding new displays to cover the latest scientific breakthroughs, you shouldn't miss certain tried-and-true exhibits that have been here for years and epitomize the museum for Chicagoans. The U-505, a German submarine that was captured in 1944 and arrived at the museum 10 years later, brings home the claustrophobic reality of underwater naval life. The sub is displayed in a dramatic indoor arena with exhibits and newsreel footage that put the U-boat in historical context (a guided tour of the sub's interior costs $7 extra, but the exhibit is worth visiting even if you don't go inside). The full-scale Coal Mine, which dates back to 1934, incorporates modern mining techniques into the exhibit -- but the best part is the simulated trip down into a dark, mysterious mine. Get to these exhibits quickly after the museum opens because they attract amusement-park-length lines during the day.
Kids who love planes, trains, and automobiles shouldn't miss All Aboard the Silver Streak, a refurbished Burlington Pioneer Zephyr train with onboard interactive exhibits; the massive model-train exhibit that makes up The Great Train Story; or Take Flight, an aviation exhibit featuring a full-size 727 airplane that revs up its engines and replays the voice recordings from a San Francisco-Chicago flight periodically throughout the day. More low-tech -- but fun for kids -- are The Farm (where children can sit at the wheel of a giant combine) and the Chick Hatchery inside the exhibit Genetics: Decoding Life, where you can watch as tiny newborn chicks poke their way out of eggs. ToyMaker 3000 immerses minicapitalists in the goings-on of a virtual company and includes an entire automated toy-making assembly line. If you have really little ones (under age 5), head for the Idea Factory, which is filled with hands-on play equipment (admission is limited to a set number of kids, so pick up a free timed ticket in advance).
I hate to indulge in gender stereotypes, but girls (myself included) love Colleen Moore's Fairy Castle, a lavishly decorated miniature palace filled with priceless treasures (yes, those are real diamonds and pearls in the chandeliers). The castle is hidden on the lower level. Also tucked away in an inconspicuous spot -- along the Blue stairwell between the Main Floor and the Balcony -- are the Human Body Slices, actual slivers of human cadavers that are guaranteed to impress teenagers in search of something truly gross.
A major addition to the museum is the Henry Crown Space Center, which documents the story of space exploration in copious detail, highlighted by a simulated space-shuttle experience through sight and sound at the center's five-story OMNIMAX Theater. The theater offers double features on the weekends; call for show times.
When you've worked up an appetite, you can visit the museum's large food court or the old-fashion ice-cream parlor; there's also an excellent gift shop.
Although it's quite a distance from the rest of Chicago's tourist attractions, the museum is easy enough to reach without a car; your best options are the no. 6 Jeffrey Express bus and the Metra Electric train from downtown (the no. 10 bus runs from downtown to the museum's front entrance during the summer).

If you are in the mood for a relaxing day, Millennium Park is the perfect place for a afternoon picnic, where you can take in the art and architecture. In the summer catch a performance at Pritzker Pavilion, while enjoying a bottle of wine with friends from the Great Lawn.
Chicago is full of must-see attractions, but at the top of the Can't Miss list is Millennium Park. It debuted in 2004, several years overdue, but it was worth the wait. It is a true gem, right downtown between Michigan Avenue and the lake. One can easily spend an afternoon just sitting on the benches at the perimeter of the Pritzker Pavilion, stare at their warped reflection in Cloud Gate ("The Bean" to locals), and watch the rotating faces in Crown Fountain spew water every five minutes or so. Immediately to the south of Millennium Park lie the Art Institute and Grant Park, which all together would make for a wonderfully relaxing day. If you only have time for one of the three, though, do not pass go, do not collect $200- without going to Millennium Park.

- Chicago,IL60602
Our Local Expert Says:
Even if art is not your thing, you must visit the Art Institute for its brand new Modern Wing that overlooks Millennium Park.
You can't -- and shouldn't -- miss the Art Institute. (You really have no excuse, since it's conveniently located right on Michigan Ave. in the heart of downtown.) No matter what medium or century interests you, the Art Institute has something in its collection to fit the bill. Japanese ukiyo-e prints, ancient Egyptian bronzes, Greek vases, 19th-century British photography, masterpieces by most of the greatest names in 20th-century sculpture, and modern American textiles are just some of the works on display, but for a general overview of the museum's collection, take the free "Highlights of the Art Institute" tour, offered at 2pm on Tuesday, Saturday, and Sunday.
If time is limited, head straight to the museum's renowned anthology of Impressionist art, which includes one of the world's largest collections of Monet paintings; this is one of the most popular areas of the museum, so arriving early pays off. Among the treasures, you'll find Seurat's pointillist masterpiece Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte. The galleries of European and American contemporary art include paintings, sculptures, and mixed-media works by Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, Salvador Dalí, Willem de Kooning, Jackson Pollock, and Andy Warhol. Visitors are sometimes surprised when they discover many of the icons that hang here (Grant Wood's American Gothic; Edward Hopper's Nighthawks).
Often overlooked but worth seeing are the Arthur Rubloff collection of delicate mid-19th-century glass paperweights, and the great hall of European arms and armor dating from the 15th to the 19th centuries. Composed of more than 1,500 objects, including armor, horse equipment, swords and daggers, polearms, and maces, the collection is one of the most important assemblages of its kind in the country. (If you do head down here, you'll see Marc Chagall's stunning stained-glass windows at the end of the gallery.)
Children younger than 12 get in for free, and the Art Institute goes the extra mile to entertain them. The Kraft Education Center on the lower level features interactive exhibits and has a list of "gallery games" to make visiting the museum more fun. When I was a kid, I was entranced by the Thorne Miniature Rooms, filled with tiny reproductions of furnished interiors from European and American history (heaven for a dollhouse fanatic).
The museum has a cafeteria and an elegant full-service restaurant, a picturesque courtyard cafe (open June-Sept), and a large shop. It offers a busy schedule of lectures, films, and other special presentations, as well as guided tours. The museum also has a research library. Allow 3 hours.
Touring the Art Institute -- If you want to enjoy your favorite masterpieces in something resembling peace and quiet, put some thought into the timing of your visit to the Art Institute, a museum so popular that it draws as much traffic as our jammed expressways.
Some tips for avoiding the rush hour: Many people don't realize the museum is open on Monday; keep this secret to yourself, and visit when the galleries are relatively subdued. Also, many visitors aren't aware that the museum stays open late on Thursdays, so consider stopping by after an early dinner (another bonus: free admission).

A perfect choice for those looking for a family fun activity. Most of the day could easily be spent here viewing the animals, having a picnic in the open park areas, then walking to the lake to play on the beach. Plus, admission is FREE!
As the only zoo in the City of Chicago, the Lincoln Park Zoo is free and open to the public 365 days a year. Founded in 1868, it is also one of the nation's oldest zoos. The Lincoln Park Zoo does an impressive job with its various exhibits, most notably the Regenstein Center for African Apes, where you can look a gorilla in the face (from the other side of the rail or glass, of course). The Lincoln Park Conservatory is directly to the north of the zoo, where you can take in some flora to complement your fauna fix from the zoo. A nice pre or post-zoo meal can be had at R.J. Grunt's, directly across the street. During the Christmas season the zoo lights up with a free light show every evening.

Hallo Thar I R Archaeologist
Tomb of Solace is a game created by jcaldwell
Well hi there! Happy that you're here and reading my Review, it'll be my 9th Review. This has had many Reviews before, but I'm not one of those reviewers who thinks a game shouldn't be Reviewed more then once, I think that it's silly xD. Anyways, let's move on to the body of the review, shall we?
Jcaldwell has been a great friend of mine, pretty much since I joined Sploder when he helped me out a little, in fact, if it wasn't for him I'd of never became a Reviewer, so there's a little fact for you, and here is a little way to repay him! We've been good friends for a long time and still chat very often, so now reviewing Tomb Of Solace will be an interesting experience for me as I still haven't Reviewed any of Jcaldwell's games before. The thumbnail is brilliant from what I first saw of it, it has a nice background tinge and good tile selection by the looks of it, and even more so the thumbnail seems to fit the title to perfection. The storyline is original and unique, about am Archaeologist exploring the Tomb Of Solace. It getss me pumped by the introducing but I'm still wondering how good it will be, it's his first Featured game so I'm looking forward to it.
Excellent Action And Gameplay, But It's Laggy For Me...
The gameplay was excellent for me, but there were quite a few ups and down sides. There was superb action and I found it quite enjoyable, but more often then not finding action is finding lag, even if there was only a mediocre portion of it, it let down the gameplay in the slightest but most annoying way. I still thought there were a couple areas of fast paced action, but the majority was quite slow..
There Shall Be Statues And Etchings In This Tomb..
I thought the scenery was quite good, not blunt and boring, but not overly fantastic, I rthought it was good. First off, I thought the tile selection suited the game very well as did the background. Now to the more detailed scenery. In Tomb Of Solace I found that there was an excellent use of statues in positions where it seemed realistic, where you'd think they actually would be. Quite honestly it was one of the best things about the scenery, but looking back on the game Im absolutely sure there were some etchings too, correct me if I am wrong. Overall the scenery was good but I would of preferred something else, to where I got to there didn't seem to be many crates, I think crates would be a good addition to the scenery.
Was Their Expertise In Placement? Probably Not...
The placement is always very important in a game, but in Tomb Of Solace it was one of few small downsides. i thought that the enemy placement was too cramped, and certain enemy areas had 1 or 2 more then necessary, leading to an early death. I found it a little annoying and in some parts you couldn't go a single corner without being hit by an enemy and no health around when you had the last ounce of your bar remaining. The placement seemed overloaded in honesty, but I thought some of the placement of the switches were good and just at the write length in intervals to make it challenging but still possible which was a plus.
I thought the tile and block placement was pretty good, and the way that jcaldwell placed the statues seemed like the real thing, at leas this is a little better and I quite liked the layout.
Puzzling.... I Didn't Get Too Far..
I didn't progress to far past the game, but I think there were a few small puzzles that I came across, I never really got too far into them due to the extreme difficulty of the game. Although to make this paragraph les sof a waste of time, the traps were ~superb~. I foudn the one with the orange switches and perm blocks with lava underneath one of the best and most simple, however most challenging puzzles, although I think Jcaldwell over did it with spikes AND turrets, it would've been fine the way it was.
Difficult.. HELL YEAH! Creative, Methinksso.
I found Tomb Of Solace extremely difficult, but I thought it was too diffuclt for my liking. I got a little further and got to the early stages of the third level (practically second seeing as level 1 is an introduction) but as a 7 level or so game, i'd of liked the difficulty to be decreased slightly so i could explore the Tombs Of Solace a little more ;). Although I wouldn't try that now, be cautious as editing sometimes unfeatures games! The difficulty was a nice touch, but a little ~too~ much. Anyway, the creativity was excellent, I loved the title, storyline and the way it felt when playing the game, it really gave me the feeling of being in a Tomb.
Final Scores
I enjoyed the actionism (is that a word?) in the gameplay! It was a fairly consistent portion of action but I was quite disappointed at the lag at times, you cant have everything though I suppose.
The scenery was fantastic, from tiles to walls to etchings to statues. I found it fantastic and although I think something extra could be added like more us eof crates, that's not enough to bring the rating down.
I honestly though it was a little cramped with enemies, but I thought the tile placement was fairly good.
I liked the traps which were really good, but there weren't any major hard puzzles to where I got to, anyway.
Y U MAEK GAEM SO DIFFICULT? Lol, I found it extremely challenging and I thought the creativity was one of the best things in the game, besides the great Scenery,
Feature Worthy?
Did Tomb Of Solace deserve the feasture? Yes, of course I do. I actually made a thread requesting it to be featured, and luckily enoough Youngcaliman found the thread and agreed with my judgement, so it was Fetaured. I think the game ticks most of the boxes, there were a few minor downsides but those could be overcome and weren't that big a deal to take away the feature. I thought the game was fantastic and thoroughly enjoyed the creativity and fantastic scenery.

Shirley Scott
Shirley Scott
An admirer of the seminal Jimmy Smith, Shirley Scott has been one of the organ's most appealing representatives since the late '50s. Scott, a very melodic and accessible player, started out on piano and played trumpet in high school before taking up the Hammond B-3 and enjoying national recognition in the late '50s with her superb Prestige dates with tenor sax great Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis. Especially popular was their 1958 hit "In the Kitchen." Her reputation was cemented during the '60s on several superb, soulful organ/soul-jazz dates where she demonstrated an aggressive, highly rhythmic attack blending intricate bebop harmonies with bluesy melodies and a gospel influence, punctuating everything with great use of the bass pedals. Scott married soul-jazz tenor man Stanley Turrentine, with whom she often recorded in the '60s. The Scott/Turrentine union lasted until the early '70s, and their musical collaborations in the '60s were among the finest in the field. Scott wasn't as visible the following decade, when the popularity of organ combos decreased and labels were more interested in fusion and pop-jazz (though she did record some albums for Chess/Cadet and Strata East). But organists regained their popularity in the late '80s, which found her recording for Muse. Though known primarily for her organ playing, Scott is also a superb pianist -- in the 1990s, she played piano exclusively on some trio recordings for Candid, and embraced the instrument consistently in Philly jazz venues in the early part of the decade. At the end of the '90s, Scott's heart was damaged by the diet drug combination, fen-phen, leading to her declining health. In 2000 she was awarded $8 million in a lawsuit against the manufacturers of the drug. On March 10, 2002 she died of heart failure at Presbyterian Hospital in Philadelphia. ~ Alex Henderson and Ron Wynn, Rovi

Burmese-Style Mustard Greens
This type of blend is very popular throughout Asia and the Eastern world as an appetizer, side dish, or snack. Try it with Chinese five-spice powder in place of the gingerroot.
- 1 ½ pounds mustard greens
- 3 cups carrots, thinly sliced
- ½ pound shallots, peeled
- 2 fresh red chilies, seeded and diced
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 2 teaspoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon fresh gingerroot, grated
- 1/3 cup dark ale
- 2/3 cup malt vinegar
Thoroughly rinse the mustard greens; blanch for 30 seconds; and dunk in an ice bath. Soak the greens in hot water so they wilt; cut into ¼-inch slices.
Mix the remaining ingredients in a large bowl; add the greens and turn to coat evenly.
Cover with a plate for weight; secure with plastic wrap. Let sit for 24 hours. Greens can be refrigerated, frozen, or canned. Flavor improves with aging. If canning, pack to within 1" of a quart container, secure the lid, and put in a hot-water bath for 15 minutes. Test lids when cool.

Update 25th October 2013 -
Many of the climbing areas previously out of bounds because of the Victoria Range fires are now accessible. Much of the access did hinge on the roads being closed and the listed roads below are now open which means that any of the cliffs accessible from them are open for climbing. Red Rock Road is still closed while it undergoes some final work but hopefully reopening shouldn't be too far off. You are still able to access the cliffs along that road though by walking in from the Anderson Road intersection.
The cliffs in the Camp of the Emu Foot track area are still out of bounds. This particular area was burnt the worst and the ground really needs time to recover before it is opened to any kind of foot traffic. These cliffs include Eureka Wall, Lost World, Red Sail, Weirs Creek.
Rather than listing every single cliff that is open, the roads and walking tracks below will govern what is open for climbing. If you are not sure, drop me a line and I will let you know
The following roads, walking tracks and visitor sites are now open:
Harrops Track
Billywing Road
Syphon Road
Northern end of Sawmill Track
Victoria Range Track
Goat Track
Buandik Camping Ground and Picnic area
Fortress walking track
Ingleton Springs Picnic area
Glenelg River Road
Chimney Pots Walking Track
The following walking tracks and roads will remain closed until further works are completed:
Billimina walking track
Red Rock Road (you can access cliffs on Red Rock road by parking and walking in from Andersons Road)
Matthews Track
Strachans Campground
Manja Walking track
Update 30th August, 2013 – Please read report here on changes and closures in the Victoria Range
25/7/13 – Victoria Range access update and workday volunteer request. Sunday 4th August. Please read the Access report linked here for full details but for a much abridged version here are some estimated times for reopenings. Do note that this is weather dependant for PV because of the work they need to do. We also need to get in there and do some track marking. Third time lucky. please drop me a line. Volunteers are very slim at this point in time.
Muline, Red Rocks area – start of August
Gallery/Buandik area – start of August
The Fortress. Chimney Pots – end August
Camp of Emu Foot Track area cliffs – minimum 1 year.
Due to fires in the Grampians much of the Southern Grampians is currently closed. See here for the report Grampians_Fire_Update and Map June 2013 as to what is closed.
Please respect all closures.There are numerous other places in the park to climb that are open. Closures are in place for a variety of reasons. CliffCare is working with Parks Victoria to reopen climbing areas as soon as possible. If you are keen on getting an area reopened, help out when the call for volunteers goes out.

Like I said, time will tell on charter schools. As for the good and bad in charter schools, we have good and bad in normal public schools. Normal public schools still have to follow all the rules, regulations, and unfunded mandates from those fun people in Olympia. Charter schools on the other hand are allowed to ignore many of those same rules, regulations, and unfunded mandates.
I still say fix what we have before adding another layer of bureaucracy. Hold our leadership in Olympia and the school districts accountable. I really do hope charter schools works out for not only the kids, but the taxpayers, but when we get less than a 75% turnout to even vote on the issue I do not hold out much hope. Odds are in five years maybe 5 of the 40 may still survive. Will it be worth the money and disruption? Time will tell.

For Immediate Release: July 24, 2009
Washington, DC Just one day after it released a report finding that U.S. federal courts are the best venue for handling complex terrorism cases, Human Rights First is urging the House Armed Services Committee to abandon the use of military commissions to prosecute suspected terrorists, warning that the system is at odds with the Constitution, the laws of war, and American values. The call came today as the full committee conducted a hearing on reforming the Military Commissions Act of 2006 and detainee policy.
"Politicians have spent eight years trying to reinvent the wheel when it comes to prosecuting terrorism and that approach has failed miserably. This report makes clear that the best way forward is to rely on our existing legal system. Its track record of successfully prosecuting criminals, safeguarding national security, and addressing the complex legal issues of our time is unmatched," said Elisa Massimino, Human Rights First's Chief Executive Officer.
Yesterday, Human Rights First released In Pursuit of Justice: Prosecuting Terrorism Cases in the Federal Court – 2009 Update and Recent Developments, a report that challenges the arguments of those who favor new, un-tested legal regimes for terrorism suspects such as

What everyone needs to understand is that it does not matter who wins the election. The president speaks regarding 'his' actions and then enacts what the president is told to do.
The real issues at hand are government borrowing and the federal reserve contract ending in December. Why are the candidates not mentioning this huge opportunity for these great United States???????
Pass an amendment that can never be repealed, even in situations involving national security, that the government cannot borrow money. National debt increases end immediately, the national debt pay-down begins, and we then have controlled the source of most monetary inflation.
Oust the fed from having control of the money supply and interest rates, institute a monetary system backed by value and not debt, and you will see our economy take off and every nation in the world clamoring for the American dollar once again.
Figure it out folks.....it has nothing to do with political ideology. It has everything to do with money.
It is up to WE THE PEOPLE of these great United States of America to take action and insist that these moves be made to insure the financial future that we all deserve.

A small Florida border town is finding "big bucks" in a legendary monster that roamed the countryside and terrorized its residents in the early 20th-century.
Several two-toed-tom festival fundraisers will be held in northern Holmes county.
Esto has made a likeness of the giant alligator as its town logo.
Next April, Esto will host its second annual Two Toed Tom Street Festival.
The event helps bring in needed revenue.
"He's awesome. We have a replica of him at city hall and we put him at the Christmas and all the parades, he's about 14-foot long," said Esto resident Darlene Madden.
Legend has it that Two Toed Tom was eventually killed in Esto after his terrorizing reign.

SEC mulls ways to shed light on dark pools
SEC Now Targetting Dark Pools, Indications Of Interests
Zero Hedge has been the subject of much (welcome) ridicule both retail and institutional , for continuing the barrage of Indication Of Interest screens (also: IOIA tag ) and information for the benefit of our readers, which I have been showing consistently over the past month, ever since I had a feeling there is something peculiar in the advertised trade flow pipes. It never hurts to be proven right. Today, the top trading chief of the Securities and Exchange Commission, James Brigagliano, announced that not only will dark liquidity pools (another topic Zero Hedge has discussed skeptically in the past specifically in the context of liquidity) become the focus of a much broader SEC focus (about time), but also automated Indication of Interest notifications have become "a potential source of concern for regulators."
Dark Pool Trade Limit Said to Be Cut 95% in SEC Plan (Update3) -

SEC votes for Dark Pool regulation
Morgan Stanley (NYSE:MS): SEC Dark Pool Regulation "Too Granular
In a letter to the Securities and Exchange Commission, Morgan Stanley (NYSE:MS) said the SEC needed to reconsider their regulatory proposal, saying it was too "granular."
Traders Magazine Online News, November 16, 2009 Stephen J Nelson; The Nelson Law Firm, LLC On Oct. 21, the SEC voted unanimously to propose regulations that would increase the transparency of dark pools. The proposed rules have not been released yet by the SEC, but public announcements and congressional testimony by SEC staffers have provided a thumbnail sketch. At the outset, and in the interest of transparency, I hereby disclose that I have no love for dark pools.
With Dark Pool Regulation, Be Careful What You Wish For
On Wednesday, October 21st, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) held an open meeting in Washington, DC to address what it perceives as a growing lack of market transparency with respect to non-displayed venues and the emergence of a "two-tiered" market structure in which in which the public is deprived of information and denied access to liquidity available to institutional traders. At that meeting, the SEC put forth a series of proposals it believes will enhance transparency, reduce asymmetries, and enhance public confidence in the equity markets.
Early Thoughts On SEC Dark Pool Regulation by Advanced Trading
I recently wrote a little piece about CESR, the EU Securities Regulator, and their update to Dark Pools regulations. It got quite a reaction, including feedback from some of the dark pools regulators themselves, who 'corrected' the view that the Best Bid-Offer had been updated by making it clear that nothing had actually changed recently. For example, the document has been updated only to reflect how reference prices are formed in a negotiated trade waiver (Page 11). In fact, the clarification provided for me is that there are various price waivers allowed under MiFID: (1) The Reference Price Waiver This is allowed in various ways:

Intel ships Haswell processors for tablets
Includes a new chip that draws as little as 4.5 watts power in tablet usage scenarios
IDG News Service - After promising to bring power-efficient Haswell processors to tablets, Intel has now started shipping new low-power, fourth-generation Core i3 processors, including one that draws as little as 4.5 watts of power in specific usage scenarios.
The dual-core Core i3-4012Y processor is part of a batch of new Haswell processors that could go into fanless tablets and laptop-tablet hybrids, bringing longer battery life to the devices.
Tablets like Microsoft's Surface Pro that run on Core processors offer great performance but poor battery life. Intel has claimed that, depending on usage, Haswell dual-core chips will offer up to 50% more battery life compared to previous Core chips, code-named Ivy Bridge. Intel claims Haswell chips also offer better multimedia performance, but the quality of graphics on the 4.5-watt chip may not be comparable to the more power-hungry chips, which are capable of running more features.
The Core i3-4012Y draws as little as 4.5 watts in specific tablet or mobile usage scenarios, according to Intel's measurements. The measurement comes from what Intel calls SDP (Scenario Design Power), which tracks the usage of power when heat is dissipated in mobile usage scenarios.
The new chip can also be used for laptops, under which it may draw 11.5 watts of power. That measurement is based on the universally accepted TDP (Thermal Design Power), which is widely used to measure power draw on laptops, desktops servers and other hardware.
Intel says the SDP measurement is appropriate in the case of devices like tablets, which have a fundamentally different design and usage compared to regular laptops. However, the SDP measurement has been panned by critics, who said the measurement is more a marketing gimmick than a true benchmark.
The 4.5-watt chip runs at a clock speed of 1.5GHz. Intel has also started shipping the 1.5GHz Core i3-4020Y and the 1.3GHz Core i3-4010Y, which are dual-core processors and draw as little as 6 watts of power under the SDP measurement. All the low-power processors have a TDP of 11.5 watts.
All the new chips have 3MB of cache, 4200-series integrated graphics processors and support low-power DDR3 memory.
The new chips started shipping ahead of the Intel Developer Forum starting Tuesday in San Francisco, where the chip maker will focus on mobile products. The company is expected to launch new Atom chips code-named Bay Trail for tablets at the show.

eEarth: electronic access to earth information for mobile professionals
eEarth is an information system giving mobile, location-aware access to geo-environmental data from boreholes stored in databases of six European geological surveys.
Customer & need
Data repositories of underground data are essential for a variety of land users and constructors. This data is necessary for the construction of houses, factories and roads and the prevention of subsidence and flooding. Geological and environmental information on the subsurface is used both by local authorities and engineering companies in their decision-making processes. Accessibility of information on site, by mobile users, can save time and money during surveys and field operations.
The eEarth mobile client provides location-aware access to a vast range of borehole data from European Geological Surveys. The information is structured for optimal mobile access and includes maps and borehole data presented in intuitive graphics.
The project provides multilingual internet software tools for accessing and translating the geodata from six national databases (United Kingdom, Germany, Poland, Lithuania, Czech Republic and the Netherlands). The information is accessible both via Pocket PC but also desktop PC connected to a web-portal. The mobile application allows the user to filter data based on GPS position, to map and navigate, and to select and view detailed borehole data, giving instant access to a large amount of geo-environmental data on the spot.

Musculoskeletal pain problems and overuse injuries were largely neglected by medical science until the 1980s. In the middle of the last century, doctors and researchers were (quite reasonably) preoccupied with more urgent public health issues. Penicillin was less than 50 years old. Basic surgical techniques were still being pioneered, with skyrocketing success rates. Medicine was still creating huge leaps in the length and quality of our lives. Arguably, even today medicine has better things to do than worry about a few aches and pains.
Yet today we do have the medical "luxury" of paying more attention to relatively minor pain problems that were overshadowed by more urgent medical issues in the past. And those problems aren't really so minor — just less minor than things that kill you outright.
Aches and pains may not be life threatening, but they nevertheless account for a stupendous amount of human suffering. Even just the economic costs of mild to moderate problems — your garden variety cases of back pain, frozen shoulder, patellofemoral pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, and so on — can be quite hair-raising.
Tales of more severe chronic pain problems — back pain that just won't quit, or dreaded afflictions like fibromyalgia and complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) — are truly awful. Indeed, CRPS can be so horrendous and untreatable (see O'Connell that many victims take their own lives to escape the pain.
Unfortunately, most physical therapists and doctors still believe obsolete conventional wisdom that predates the current "golden age" of research in musculoskeletal health care. Most problems are treated ineffectively and simplistically as though they were "mechanical" in nature — ignoring 20-year old evidence to the contrary! In chiropractic and massage therapy, there is a simplistic, industry-wide preoccupation with "alignment" and other structural factors repeatedly proven to be trivial by medical researchers (i.e. leg length differences). And countless people with severe myofascial pain syndrome — nasty muscle knots — bounce around the medical system like they are in a pinball machine, serially misdiagnosed and mistreated, often never finding a single doctor or therapist who recognizes the problem, or (having at least recognized it) has a clue what to do about it.
Most physical therapists and doctors still believe obsolete conventional wisdom that predates the current "golden age" of research.Medical experts are devoting their careers to trying to educate their non-specialist colleagues, often seemingly in vain. For example, Dr. Richard Deyo is spending his career trying to teach other doctors about the "myths of back pain" — a long list of exasperatingly persistent misconceptions about back pain that are still being inflicted on patients in doctor's offices around the world every day. Or another example: Dr. David Simons, who's incredible lifetime of study of an "orphan organ" (muscle) is virtually ignored by clinicians everywhere, even massage therapists who would seem to be the most likely to care — not because his opinions are controversial, but simply because it's hard to get the word out and make clinicians take muscle pain seriously.
And this is why I do what I do. The goal of SaveYourself.ca is to get the word out!

The 30-year reign of one of the world's most notorious opium barons, Khun Sa, appears to have come to an end with his surrender this week in Myanmar in return for a promise of amnesty.
Burmese Government troops marched into Mr. Khun Sa's mountain headquarters in eastern Myanmar, and he surrendered without a shot fired, according to diplomats, Government officials in Thailand and Burmese living along the border with Thailand.
While the capitulation of the 61-year-old drug lord and his well-armed private army represents a major victory for the Burmese military Government -- Mr. Khun Sa's army was the last major insurgency in Myanmar -- it by no means represents an end to the drug trade in the so-called Golden Triangle.
The area, which includes areas of Myanmar (formerly Burma), Thailand and Laos, is the source of most of the world's opium, the raw material of heroin. Control of the poppy fields overseen by Mr. Khun Sa and his army, drawn from the large Shan ethnic group, might simply be transferred to another group, much as the cocaine trade in Colombia shifted from the Medellin cartel to Cali.

Odell, Ill.
By: Ralph and Joyce Weidensee
From: Chilton, WI
By: Ralph and Joyce Weidensee
From: Chilton, WI
Historic Rt.66 runs right though Odell IL, "A Small Town with a big Heart."
There is a walking path under the old highway so that the members of St. Paul's Catholic church could get from the East side of Rt. 66 to the church and school on the west side, in this way avoiding traffic on Rt. 66. Memories of Odell include the "Victory Bell" on the lawn at the St. Paul's High School. It became a bit of a competition to see who could be the first to ring the bell after a victory by the basketball team. There were a lot of victories that year, 1951, the year St. Paul's High School (pop. 75) compted in the IL State High School Sweet Sixteen tournament. The town provided "free show" night every Wednesday throughout the summer. What a great time for the town's people to come together to spread a blanket on the grass of the part in the center of town and spend the evening with their neighbors or our favorite girl. At intermission you could get a 10 cent ice cream cone at Chick Berry Restaurant or a milkshake at Langon's.
Odell celebrated its Sesquicentennial in 2004 with a weekend of activities in the central park.
Another celebration recently, (April 24) was the 102 Birthday party for Teresa Beck, born in and a long time resident of Odell.
Heading south on Rt.66? Stop in Odell...There is a Listorie gas station that services travelers on Rt.66 as thet travel from Chicago west to Los Angeles or points along the way. Arrive in September and you may enjoy "Odell Days", a weekend carnival and other activities.

Dongan Hills
Did bullies drive another teen to suicide?
Someday, you'll leave school, and the torturers in your youth will fade back into a distant buzz. All the stupid things they've said to you – none of it will matter.
Has a Todt Hill, high-class burglar actually been caught this time?
Todt Hill and other expensive neighborhoods in Staten Island have been plagued for four years by professional burglars who really seem to know what they're doing.
Couple from Dongan Hills is sentenced for two pit bull attacks
First the animal bit a woman's leg to the bone after she'd been arguing with one of the suspects. Then the dog clamped onto a woman's crotch while he was out for a walk.
Police investigate two growing patterns of high-end burglaries
It's reminiscent of the old "Ninja" break-ins: They've targeted the expensive neighborhoods, they do a clean, professional job, and it's probably more than one gang doing it.
73-year-old laundry owner charged with fondling teenage worker
An elderly laundromat owner is accused of reaching under a 16-year-old female employee's shirt, right there in the laundromat – in the middle of a Sunday morning.
Two men, four commercial burglaries, in about two weeks in August
Four commercial burglaries apparently trace back to the same two men, police said. Police have released photos of suspects from security cameras at one of the burglaries.
Traffic sucks. Really.
A casual study of traffic revealed that no one follows the rules. Is this really a surprise?
Robbery in Dongan Hills was done really badly
Actually, it wasn't quite a robbery, since they didn't get anything.
Contributions stolen that were for little kid with cancer
Thieves took this cancer victim for, what, $11? $12? Some people need to hit bottom, but just how far down is that?
Man sought for Dongan Hills hit and run incident… with wild turkeys
A witness grabbed the driver's license plate number, so it shouldn't be long before he or she is taken in.

Garlic for Bronchitis and Sinusitis by #36303 ..... Dr. Schulze Support Forum
Date: 12/26/2004 11:55:52 AM ( 9 year ago)
Hits: 4011
URL: http://curezone.com/forums/fm.asp?i=545930
I read in one of the messages about the method of using chopped garlic with vaseline as a paste and putting it on the feet covered with gauze and socks overnight for treating bronchitis and sinusitis. Does anyone know how many nights you should do this for and how long it takes for the bronchitis and sinus issues to clear up. I tried it for the first time last night and the arch of my feet really burned quite a bit and this morning it feels very tender and quite red in patches on my arches. Is this normal or can anyone offer any info that might help. Thanks.

UC San Diego Moores Cancer Center launched a bold plan today aimed at personalizing cancer treatment. The "My Answer to Cancer" team of oncologists, bioinformaticians, pathologists and geneticists pledges to "sequence" or analyze the DNA of large numbers of patients with cancer in order to match each patient to the best available drug for his or her particular tumor. There will be two parallel approaches: a research approach to discover new mutations that cause cancer and a patient-care approach that will use confirmed mutations and other DNA abnormalities to direct patients to clinical studies of agents targeting these abnormalities.
"No two cancers are alike, just as no two people are exactly alike," said Barbara Parker, MD, medical director of oncology services at UC San Diego Moores Cancer Center. "Recent advances have made it possible to generate a profile of the DNA abnormalities in a tumor. With this information, we can identify profiles that will allow us to tailor cancer treatments to individual patients. This approach will open a new world of cancer treatment with 'targeted agents' and could lead to significantly better therapies. Additionally, this research approach will identify new tumor DNA profile abnormalities that could lead to the development of new drugs and new combinations of drugs."
A project of this scope depends on strong community support. UC San Diego Moores Cancer Center is calling on people living in San Diego County and beyond to help raise an initial $5 million for this effort. Donors will receive regular updates on medical breakthroughs, the number of patients treated, the number of community members joining in the project, and the amount of money raised, in addition to expert interviews.

Agreed!!!! A group of us went the week before and it was delicious!!! We all sampled each others dish & could not come to a decisive conclusion on which was the best! Service was top notch.......he gave our group a free appetizer, free dessert, and even brought a bottle mosquito repellent to the table (which was not needed). Prices are very reasonable!!! Hubby said I had to add......some of the coldest beer in town! |

We went there last week and had 3 delicious dishes! Yes v unique flavours (2 shrimp dishes...the borracho tequila and coffee one, and fish filet in curry sauce i think). Really yummo.
My only suggestion would be to put some kind of veggie/salad on plate as the seafood just comes with rice. Or order a salad with your meal. Otherwise, i hope this place does well...it has a nice vibe and a kids area if you take the littleuns... |

Call to Speak With Sales
Some companies are ditching paper be green. Others simply want to use technology to save. E-mail and other technologies have made communicating with customers and clients that much easier. Traditional faxes require a landline and a bulky fax machine that takes up space in the corner of your office. Each incoming fax would interrupt your telephone calls. Don't let an incoming fax cut the lifeline to your business. Because Internet faxes don't use landlines, customers will never get a busy signal.
Internet fax offers many advantages to mobile business and women. It allows employees to be unchained from their desks and stay within reach to their clients. Additionally, virtual phone line prevents calls from being dropped like traditional landlines do, so you can avoid dealing with angry customers on other line when they call back.

Over 130,000 business owners have discovered how RingCentral's business-class features improve customer service, including making sure calls remain live even when business representatives receive an online fax. RingCentral has garnered industries honors including PC Magazine's Editor's Choice Award, and the 2010 World Economic Forum Technology Pioneer Award.

Have you seen this woman?
I am posting Howard's entry from Philly future, in full, below. As you will see, Philly bloggers are uniting to try and bring attention to this missing Philly woman (non-white division.)
When the news of Latoyia Figueroa's disapperance first made it onto the Philly Future front page last week, she was a relatively anonymous missing person. Unfortunately, she is still both relatively anonymous and missing. That's the continuing sad truth of the matter.
The hopeful news is that, thanks to local bloggers like Richard at All Spin Zone, and those who've followed his lead, her name is starting to get out, and hopefully her face has a greater chance of being seen by someone who may be able to help find her. Richard's post on Latoyia has been picked up by Evan Derkacz at Alternet.
Richard asks, and we echo his request, for all Philly area bloggers to put the word out on their blogs about Latoyia Figueroa, who's been missing for over a week now. Include a picture of her. Even if you only get one visitor a day, every little bit helps raise awareness of this missing Philadelphia woman, who is not only five months pregnant, but also has a seven-year-old waiting for her at home.
Another course of action Richard has suggested is to write an email to Nancy Grace at CNN, who has provided wall-to-wall coverage of missing teenager Natalee Holloway. In a world where only the white-skinned, blond-haired young women seem to be missed by the mainstream media, these are some ways to help bring Latoyia's story a little attention too.
UPDATE: CNN.com has finally picked up the story. Now maybe we'll see other outlets on the trail, and maybe even some mention on television. The more exposure the better chance there is that a picture of Latoyia will be spotted by someone who knows something about the situation.
Racism in the News?
Sadly, it took the hard work of local bloggers to get this story to go national. As I've stated on my own blog, I guess because LaToyia isn't a blue-eyed, blonde with her life ahead of her, missin gon some exotic island, she doesn't count for much.
What really bothers me more is that the major news channels constantly harp on racism issues, but it appears they are guilty of it themselves.

Charlestown High School teacher Nicole Keith-Morrison was hit by a drunk driver while walking in front of the high school on Park Street. According to reports, Natalie Miller was the driver of the Pontiac Grand Am that hit Keith-Morrison on Tuesday morning. Keith-Morrison, age 30, suffered a fractured skull and bleeding on her brain, as well as neck and vertebrae injures. She underwent surgery at University Hospital in Louisville and is listed in stable condition. Miller was charged with operating a vehicle while intoxicated and operating a vehicle while intoxicated and causing serious bodily injuries. Miller was also charged with operating a vehicle with a minor passenger while intoxicated because her 7-year-old son was in the car with her at the time of the accident.
While some may disagree, if a question remains as to whether a driver or a pedestrian had the right of way, the tie should go to the pedestrian. Even with the right of way, drivers still should use extra caution when passing through a school zone, crosswalk or other areas with heavy pedestrian traffic.
Miller and all drunk drivers certainly bear responsibility for their actions and often times the consequences of drunk driving are tragic. While the drunk driver is always primarily responsible, in certain circumstances other parties can be held responsible if they had the chance or duty to stop the drunk driver from getting behind the wheel and failed to do so.
The attorneys at JONES WARD PLC have represented numerous victims of DUI crashes and pedestrians who have been injured in a motor vehicle accident. If you or a loved one has been injured in a motor vehicle accident of any type, give attorney Terrance Massey a call at (502) 882-6000 or send him an email at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Sauna is ready when the heat is about 80 degrees Celsius. (For some Finns like my grandfather it is 100 degrees)
Bathers are nude in Finnish saunas (but I don't mind if someone wants to wear towel)
During sauna session lose about 300 cal, which is about 30min of exercising
Old days babies were born in a sauna and dead were bathed in the sauna.
All Finns have it, almost all of us love it!
Cottage, sauna, barbeque, bonfire, family, friends...what else you can ask.
For Finns this nightless night is about spending time together and relax.
Juhannus (how we call it) is nowadays a Saturday between June 20 and June 26.Actual Juhannus party is on Mid summer eve on Friday. In addition to Chrismas eve Midsummer eve is official holiday in many companies.
We Finns love spending time on our summer cottages.
Thanks to our thousands lakes we have chance to have those cottages located next to the lakes.
If asked me, the best cottages are those which does not have electricity but if you think it's too extreme, you can find cottages with all conveniences.
What makes it special?
Think about it;
calm lake, quiet nature, light and warmth of fire..
and those are only a few things that makes our nightless summer nights special.
