here are a few that i usually recommend: one of my favorite places in l.a. is the 
 
 hollywood museum 
 —not even so much for the hollywood memorabilia, but for the make-up rooms. it’s a museum that’s in the old max factor building where he would literally get the stars ready for their close ups and the make-up rooms he used are still in tact. they might be the cutest thing i’ve ever seen. there’s a room for redheads, a room for blondes, for brunettes, etc. you can really picture the stars getting primped for red carpet events and there’s something just so charming about it. 
 i wouldn’t put this at the top of my list because it really depends what’s going on here when you visit, but the 
 
 the silent movie theatre 
  is a lot of fun. it’s basically this old art deco movie theater that now has a lot of interesting movie-related events—check out their schedule and see what they have going when you come. 
 i would also check out the schedule for the outdoor movies at the 
 
 hollywood forever cemetery 
 . i know it seems a little macabre, but basically people bring all kinds of beach chairs and picnic blankets and watch an outdoor night time movie at the cemetery (i would get there early to see the cemetery itself). it’s a lot of fun if a bit silly. 
 i know this isn’t a very original idea, but i would for sure see 
 
 mann's chinese theater 
 . it’s absolutely stunning on the inside and as hokey as it is, it’s really a fun experience to see the handprints out front. i actually liked it better before they renovated it, but it's still pretty incredible, especially architecturally. the  
 
 dolby theatre 
 (formerly kodak theater) where they hold the oscars is right next door but is basically just a big mall if you ask me. i wouldn't go out of my way to see it.  
 you might also want to try to catch a premier if you can. they take place pretty frequently in the city –check out this list for upcoming dates: http://www.seeing-stars.com/calendar/index.shtml#premieres
 
 finally, i’ve never been to 
 
 hollywood heritage museum
  museum but i’ve heard it’s great—and it’s near the 
 
 hollywood bowl 
 so you can see that while you’re at it, too--it's actually my favorite place in l.a. and they have a lot of movie-themed nights so you should check out their schedule while you're at it. hi, tracy! welcome back to the moms panel! you must be getting so excited with your first vacation disney vacation coming up! i'm so excited for you! if you haven't done so already, i recommend ordering your free disney parks vacation planning dvd right away. it can take 4-6 weeks to arrive, but depending on when in may your trip is, you might receive it just in the nick of time. there is a section on the dvd that will walk you through traveling with little ones! i'm so glad that you are visiting each park once and allowing two days for magic kingdom park! here are [just a few of] my top picks for each park: magic kingdom park: 1. pirates of the caribbean® 2. it's a small world 3. peter pan's flight 4. the many adventures of winnie the pooh 5. dumbo the flying elephant® 6. under the sea ~ journey of the little mermaid disney's hollywood studios: 1. the great movie ride 2. toy story mania!

private equity:
* decision-making in private equity firms – an empirical study of determinants and rules – mark broere
* inside private equity – james m. kocis, james c. bachman iv, austin m. long iii, craig j. the all star movies is a fun resort. if the pool appeals to your family, then i would choose this hotel for your stay. you will be unable to use the pool at all star movies while staying at pop century. pool use is for guests of the hotel only. if you are traveling during a time of year where you intend to spend lots of pool time, then i would recommend booking your reservation at the all star movies so you can enjoy the fantasia pool that appeals to your family. the first one. There are many out there. Just depends on your actual needs.  

I strongly prefer Manhattan, or JD Edwards.  

Check these two out keeping in mind there are more.


Jack off the top of my head i'd say kreia, from knights of the old republic 2. ravel puzzlewell with force powers is a scary, scary thought. hi rebekah! the tower of terror 10-miler is getting so close! i was just looking up the rides for you and it made me get really excited for the race and party!! the attractions listed as being available during the disney villains hollywood bash are as follows (keep in mind that things are always subject to change): rock 'n' roller coaster starring aerosmith the twilight zone tower of terror star tours muppet vision 3d the great movie ride (yay!!!) toy story mania i hope this helps you plan your evening! it's going to be so fun! please let me know if you have any other questions. i would recommend going to hollywood studios. there are many shows, and a few ride attractions. it's really a tough call. epcot equally is very interesting. there are attractions like soarin' which is amazing ride over the mountains of california. there is a trip through time on a slow moving attraction in epcot. the various countries can be equally fascinating. i suppose i am making my case for both. you know your 9 year old the best and what they would appreciate the most. i would suggest logging onto www.waltdisneyworld.com and search through epcot and hollywood studios. i would ask your 9 year old what they will would really like to do. hope you have a fabulous trip!! heather m.
