Russian long jumper Tatiana Kotova and hammer thrower Kirill Ikonnikov have been banned for two years for doping.
The Russian athletics federation handed down two year bans to long jumper Tatiana Kotova and hammer thrower Kirill Ikonnikov on Wednesday after the pair returned positive doping results.
The 36-year-old Kotova, who won Olympic bronze at Sydney 2000 and four years later at Athens was initially suspended in February after her samples from the 2005 Helsinki world championships detected the presence of a banned substance.
The 2002 European champion has seen all her results from August 10, 2005 to August 9, 2007 declared void.
Ikonnikov, who has won three national titles, was also suspended from all competition after his A sample given on October 8, 2012, showed the presence of banned substances.

Hi. My name is Elissa Joy Watts.
Mom gave me my middle name – Joy – and taught me to use my words. Now I pay the bills doing so. Yep. No more corporate dress code. Most days, I wear slippers for a living. Didn't see it coming but I'll take it. Thanks, mom.
I am a writer.
And I am also a daughter, a sister, a wife, a mother, a friend, and dreamer. I'll be a pupil until I'm in the grave. I have so much to learn.
I am a noticer
I have a reputation for paying close attention to life.
My midlife crisis dropped by early. I was 24. Now I exhale vulnerability and welcome tears. People tell me saltwater is my superpower.
Life has not gone according to plan (see above) but my story is all the more spectacular because I've learned to surrender and hang on. This likely makes no sense to those of you who don't know Jesus but I will shed light on the matter as I go.
My peculiar journey has taught me a few things.
Truth heals. Mercy wins. Sincerity is king and queen.
Perfection is oppressive. Unwarranted kindness is never wasted. People must always come first.
There is always room for more barbecue and more Bowie. When in doubt, more butter.
I am a professional amateur.
Amateur as in "one who loves." I am head over heels for the world we share. It is unpredictable and broken and yet full of beauty. Lipstick. Butter. Handmade slippers. Dry Shampoo. Gin. Opera. Mind-blowing Indian cuisine. I try not to blink. The little things bring me tremendous joy.
To borrow the words of Annie Dillard, how we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives. I want to spend mine wisely.
Writing is therapy.
Whether it's work or play, I love what I do. Enjoy my rambling thoughts. Thanks for lending your attention. Please don't send an invoice.

New Tandy Craftool Pro Stitch Master made by Sailrite
koreric75 replied to Treesner's topic in Leather Sewing MachinesKind of like the Janome HD3000 they have better...honestly i can get it to do almost the same as the stitch master, just not quite the oompf and no servo/speed reducer...but it makes very nice stitches and feels pretty solid.
New Tandy Craftool Pro Stitch Master made by Sailrite
koreric75 replied to Treesner's topic in Leather Sewing Machinesas Wiz said, i've played with it some and it tops out at 10oz and the thread size limit would be a nogo for holsters, probably sheaths as well. For the shows, you'll need something that will handle the size of leather and thread you need, other than hand-stitching there aren't many options for a lightweight transportable solution...even the boss and outlaw need a sturdy mount to keep it from jumping all over, you may as well carry the cobra with you unless power is an issue...
Sharpening head knife gah!!
koreric75 replied to FloridaLeatherGirl's topic in Leatherwork ConversationI can't agree enough with this, i felt the same way initially and figured i just got a dud knife...nope, just had to dedicate some time and patience to really get a good edge on it, then keep it stropped, i strop every time i pick it up and just before i put it back in it's case. keep at it and don't give up, a really good sharp head knife is gold in this biz...
koreric75 started following Sewing Machine Recommendation for Small Leather Goods?, Makers stamps, who's the best?, Makers stamps, who's the best? and and 6 others
I'll tag this here too, pretty good thread about different mfg and links to their sites...personally i've used AM Leathercraft (good price, long wait for shipping to states) and leatherstampmaker (highdesertCNC) good price and quick shipping for US
There's an entire thread started by JLS Leather just for this...
VB Tools worth their price?
koreric75 replied to Mokerson's topic in Leather ToolsI have a 2.0 you can check out next time you're over...
Thank you, I prefer on this application to not use glue or the basting style tape for the seams. For a turned bag, i have a hard time getting the glue/tape line just right, so when the bag is turned right side out after sewing sometimes there is a little glue or tape visible. The last bag before this i was able to get it right, but i also added a welt to the seam so that helped some (mainly my glue line was wider and i had the welt to cover it), but was inherently more tedious and took significantly more time. Also for the oil tanned leather, especially some like this double waxed, glue doesn't work well on the grain side at all (even after roughing, i had a time getting the pockets stuck down before stitching) and the seams will slip if not held very closely to the presser foot. For the second question, @battlemunky covered it, if you're still curious...https://www.leather-dictionary.com/index.php/Pull_up_leather_-_Greased_leather_-_Waxed_leather_-_Oiled_leather
Thanks, the clips were on Amazon... Don't remember how much but have more than paid for themselves lol Thanks, and you're welcome...
Where to buy 207 thread
koreric75 replied to afdfirefighter's topic in Suppliers@CowboyBob or @SolarLeatherMachines are both great sources for thread, I use solar-leather since they're the closest cowboy dealer to me, and a few spools gets heavy for shipping, toledo industrial machines would be closer to you, and i don't think you'll find better thread for the price than your cowboy dealers....

Sewing Machine Recommendation for Small Leather Goods?
koreric75 replied to YSRASupply's topic in Leather Sewing Machinesthat is what i was wondering, i mispoke on this one, no parts were replaced, just a cleaning and service...it spun freely enough before hand, but now not as well. i was wrong, the 78-1 got a replacement shuttle carrier, only to find out the shaft is bent as well...the 127 was just brought in as a basket case and reassembled.

Adler 67 Bobbin Thread Pickup
koreric75 replied to carolb's topic in Leather Sewing MachinesAlso as mentioned above, with the clutch machine there is a chance with a jam the clutch has popped, it's under the machine on the right side of the shaft, holding the clutch and rotating the hand when toward you should allow the spring loaded ball bearing to pop back into place, let me know if you need pics etc
Sewing Machine Recommendation for Small Leather Goods?
koreric75 replied to YSRASupply's topic in Leather Sewing MachinesHey wiz, i have an old iron body or two, my 127 was completely serviced, but it feels like there is a sticky spot and makes the shuttle drive feel "jerky", i haven't put a motor on it yet and was told that it was normal after getting some new parts to let it "run in" to allow the machine to wear the newer parts and it should be back to smooth operation. I have a couple of tables i could put this in, but it's a short bed and doesn't fit so i'm going to need to alter or make an adapter to drop it in first...

BREAKING: Obama Nominates Anti-Gun Illinois Judge for SCOTUS
President Obama announced on Wednesday his nominee for the Supreme Court, Illinois Chief Judge Merrick B. Garland. WhiteHouse.gov describes Judge Garland this way:
As one of the best appellate judges in the country, Chief Judge Merrick Garland is the most qualified person to immediately serve on the Supreme Court.
Here are some brief facts that give an overview of Chief Judge Garland's record and credentials:
Oversaw some of the most important federal criminal cases in recent history, including the prosecutions of Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols for the Oklahoma City bombing as well as the government's responses to the Unabomber and the Montana Freemen
Took steps as a government attorney to ensure proper respect for the rights of criminal defendants, helping develop policies that require prosecutors to conduct an individual assessment of each case when making charging decisions, rather than just charging with the most serious offense possible
Was confirmed to the D.C. Circuit in 1997 with strong bipartisan support from a majority of both parties in the U.S. Senate
Distinguished himself as a jurist who decides every case based on what the law requires, stating, "The role of the court is to apply the law to the facts of the case before it"
Known as a meticulous jurist with a skill for building consensus, an approach that has earned him bipartisan support throughout his career
However, The Hill offers more:
Despite his lengthy résumé, Garland is somewhat of a surprise pick for Obama, who has valued racial, ethnic and professional diversity in his past judicial picks.
Garland is a white male who would not add religious diversity to the bench — he is Jewish. At 63, he would be one of the oldest people ever to be confirmed to the high court. Like five other current justices, Garland graduated from Harvard.
Garland's lengthy paper trail built up over almost two decades on the federal bench could also give Republicans ample opportunity to find objectionable views.
The Senate confirmed Garland to the DC Circuit Court of Appeals in 1997 by a vote of 76-23. But McConnell and current Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) both voted against him.
Republicans argued Wednesday that it would be relatively easy to oppose Garland because McConnell and Grassley were on record against him nearly 20 years ago.
A senior GOP aide argued that Obama's decision to pick the oldest judge on his short list shows that he doesn't have much hope of getting the pick confirmed by the Republican-controlled Senate.
Seven Republicans who voted to confirm Garland to the circuit court are still in the Senate: Sens. Dan Coats (Ind.), Thad Cochran (Miss.), Susan Collins (Maine), Orrin Hatch (Utah), James Inhofe (Okla.), John McCain (R-Ariz.) and Pat Roberts (R-Kan.).
Sen. Lisa Murkowski's (R-Alaska) father, former Sen. Frank Murkowski (R-Alaska), also voted for Garland.
Also from The Hill, Garland is known for being anti-gun:
[C]onservatives have pointed to Garland's past decisions to show that this seemingly moderate nominee has not always been so moderate.
In a blog post for National Review, Carrie Severino, chief counsel and policy director at the conservative Judicial Crisis Network, said Garland has a long record of being anti-gun that threatens Scalia's most important decisions in D.C. v. Heller, a case that affirmed the Second Amendment and person's right to keep and bear arms.
Severino pointed to Garland's 2007 vote to undo a D.C. court decision striking down a ban on individual possession of a handgun. Garland, she said, voted with one of the court's most liberal judges, David Tatel, to reconsider the ruling.
And statement from the American Conservative Union (ACU):
WASHINGTON DC – Once again, President Obama has shown his blatant disregard for the U.S. Constitution by nominating a person to replace Justice Scalia who ignores the fundamental premise that our government is to be limited and citizen based. As a federal appeals court judge, Merrick Garland has tried to restrict individual rights and he has worked to expand the power of the federal government over Americans' lives.
If it were up to Judge Garland, DC citizens would have been stripped of their Second Amendment rights and the EPA would have virtually unlimited control over the private property of Americans. Republican Senate leaders should be applauded for standing on principle and upholding their role of advice and consent in filling Supreme Court vacancies.
President Obama considers the Constitution a series of old-fashioned suggestions rather than the law of the land. The Senate should continue to stand strong and prevent a lame-duck president from remaking the court for decades to come.
We call on the Senate to exercise its Constitutional right not to consent to this nomination.

BWW Review: Sweden's LITTLE KING MATTIAS Delights Children at Kennedy Center
What if children had a voice in government? What if they even had a voice in how the budget is developed? That's the central conceit of Little King Mattias, which made its US Premiere this weekend at the Kennedy Center in its ongoing festival celebrating Nordic culture. Sweden's Backa Teater, which specializes in theatre for young audiences, puts a unique spin on Janusz Korczak's classic children's story King Matt the First and offers one of the most interesting examples of interactive theatre that I've seen in recent memory. Put succinctly, it's a delight.
Writer-Director Mattias Andersson's innovative stage adaptation considers the plight of young Mattias (a charming Ulf Ronnerstrand). His father is king of an unnamed country and when he falls ill, Mattias becomes king at the young age of eleven. He's privileged and has never interacted with the commoners outside of the castle walls so, in addition to his young age, he doesn't have much of a basis to go on to make decision that will affect the populace. The leaders in government - namely the secretaries of defense (Bahador Foladi), education (Ylva Gallon), environment (Sandra Stojiljkovic), finance (Ove Wolf), health (Goran Ragnerstam) and justice (Maria Hedborg) - deliberately try to keep Mattias out of all governmental decisions. When he unexpectedly meets a young immigrant, Felicia (a commanding Marall Nasiri), his eyes are opened and he quickly learns that life outside of the castle is not as easy as he previously thought. Further, the decisions the politicians are making on his behalf are making the situation worse rather than better. He decides to take matters into his own hands and proves that one need not be of a certain age to know what's right and what's wrong.
While this play - which uses adult actors, minimal sets and costumes (Ulla Kassius), music (Stefan Abelsson) sound (Jonas Redig), and lighting (Peter Moa) - would have likely worked if staged traditionally, it works even better as a piece that allows the children in the audience to participate in the action. It entertains just as much as it educates them on basic concepts of governance and political action. With the assistance of political consultant America Vera-Zavala and interaction consultant Johanna Larsson, Backa Teater uses Mattias' dilemma - whether to maintain the status quo the adults have established or do what's right - as a catalyst for getting children involved in political decisions that range from those that are national security-related (nuclear weapons elimination, for example) to those which are social in nature (such as the provision of health care and programs for the homeless).
When Mattias decides to take matters into his own hands, he appoints six young audience members (at my performance they ranged from maybe age seven to thirteen) as his secretaries and allows them to fire the adults that previously held those positions. This paves the way for other children in the audience to work with those 'leaders' - facilitated by Backa Teater personnel and some local DC actors - and decide how to prioritize governmental decisions and expend monetary resources on those issues that are the most important. From that point on, until the last moments of the show, the kids drive what happens in Mattias' country. It's an unexpected approach to combining entertaining theatre with civics lessons.
Running Time: 1 hour and 40 minutes with no intermission.
Little King Mattias played for four performances on March 9 and 10, 2013 at The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts - 2700 F Street, NW in Washington, DC. For descriptions of other offerings in the ongoing Nordic Cool festival, visit the Kennedy Center website.

Microsoft workers are calling on their employer to cancel a $480m contract to provide the US army with augmented reality (AR) headsets, saying they "do not want to become war profiteers". "We did not sign up to develop weapons, and we demand a say in how our work is used," reads a petition being circulated inside the company, a copy of which was published on Twitter on Friday afternoon.
"We always appreciate feedback from employees and have many avenues for employee voices to be heard," a Microsoft spokesperson said in response to the petition.
A U.S. biotech company will no longer allow China to purchase equipment believed to have been used to help the ruling Communist Party create a DNA database of the country's Uighur minority.
The Uighurs, who are a Muslim majority, assert that they are being brutally targeted given their religion and are being forced to submit to China's indoctrinated Communist rule, while the government proclaims their actions to "re-educate" are merely in the interest of national security.
Coverage of 5G, the superfast, next-generation wireless-network technology, has been dominated for months by the U.S.-led campaign against Huawei Technologies Co.
Now, on the eve of Barcelona's Mobile World Congress, Washington's efforts to paint the world's largest provider of telecom gear as a spying threat appears to be fizzling, The Wall Street Journal reports. Coverage of 5G, the superfast, next-generation wireless-network technology, has been dominated for months by the U.S.-led campaign against Huawei Technologies Co.
At least 50 Microsoft employees have demanded the company back out of a deal with the US military to provide augmented reality technology.
Microsoft's chief executive Satya Nadella is expected to announced HoloLens 2 at an event in Barcelona on Sunday, ahead of the Mobile World Congress trade show. The letter demands Microsoft cancel the Integrated Visual Augmentation System (IVAS) contract, stop developing "any and all" weapons technologies, and draft a public policy statement on the matter.
JPMorgan Chase & Co is tearing down walls and moving its San Francisco investment bankers onto "hot desks," a space-saving layout that has long been a fixture at tech companies, while redesigning offices in Dallas and other cities.
Shared workspaces have been relatively slow to catch on at banks, but JPMorgan is following recent renovations by some rivals, which designers tout as cost cutting and productivity boosting.
This year's Mobile World Congress in Barcelona takes place against a backdrop of tension between politics and technology.
The latest, fastest, snazziest system of mobile networking has been at the center of previous Mobile World Congress events.
Quest Diagnostics Inc. this week named a chief information and digital officer, combining two enterprise technology roles, as digital tools continue to expand beyond providing back-room business support and into strategic data management and analytics.
Gabrielle Wolfson, a former Xerox Corp. chief information officer, took on the dual role earlier this month at the medical diagnostic-information provider known for blood work, urinalysis and other laboratory tests, a company spokesperson said.
A handpicked selection of stories from BBC Future, Culture, Capital and Travel, delivered to your inbox every Friday.
"There is a growing body of evidence – that is, yes, not fully validated and can be argued against – but pretty clear evidence that technology, social media, immediate access to the internet and smartphones are hurting kids' ability to focus," says Dr Jim Taylor, author of Raising Generation Tech. "We are fundamentally changing the way kids think and the way their brains develop."
Speaking through a translator at a media roundtable Thursday, the technology giant's chairman Liang Hua stressed that he believes there is a way for the business to forge ahead in the country, though he noted the relationship between Canada and the company's home country China is "not ideal."
WATCH: Huawei founder says CFO's arrest was politically motivated, BBC report says. Huawei has already faced restrictions on its technology from three of Canada's Five Eyes intelligence allies — the U.S., Australia and New Zealand _ and telecommunications partners, including Telus Corp., have said if Huawei is banned their 5G wireless networks could be delayed and more expensive.
Thousands of Oakland public school teachers went on strike Thursday, calling for smaller class sizes, more resources, and better pay in a city where tech money has made it difficult for the vast majority of teachers to survive.
The Oakland Education Association – the union that represents teachers, librarians, counselors, and nurses serving 36,000 students in 87 schools –has been negotiating with the Oakland Unified school district (Ousd) for two years, said the union president, Keith Brown.
Senior White House officials pushed a project to share nuclear power technology with Saudi Arabia despite the objections of ethics and national security officials, according to a new congressional report citing whistleblowers within the administration.
Democrats investigating if Michael Flynn pushed nuclear project as Donald Trump aide. Up until the month before he joined the Trump administration, Flynn listed himself as a consultant to a previous iteration of Hewitt's company advocating a similar nuclear power proposal, though the company told The Washington Post that Flynn was offered a role as an adviser but never formally came aboard.
Schalke almost pulled off a memorable result against Manchester City, but their task was made harder by malfunctioning VAR.
McKennie was outstanding and Schalke played with heart and quality, but for a long while the game's enduring narrative had appeared to be the scar VAR left on it. Play was held up to confirm Sergio Aguero's opener after it was adjudged Aymeric Laporte's aerial challenge on Mark Uth in the build-up was nothing more than clumsy.
Blockchain, the digital ledger underlying bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, has dropped to the bottom of Gartner Inc.'s annual list of the most disruptive data and analytics capabilities for enterprise IT – replaced by tools that leverage artificial intelligence and machine learning.
By contrast, data and analytics tools continue to evolve, from "supporting internal decision making to continuous intelligence, information products and appointing chief data officers," Gartner said in the report, released at its annual data and analytics summit in Sydney.

However, its relevance to the outcome is unknown.Hypothesis: CBF response to head-of-the-bed (HOB) elevation within the first hours after AIS is related to outcome.Methods: Patients with a large anterior circulation stroke of less than 48h from the stroke onset were monitored with DCS to follow rCBF in the frontal lobes during a HOB elevation from supine to 30°. All patients were placed flat during the first 24 hours and later, mobilization was initiated depending on the clinical condition. We categorized measurements as early (<12h) or late (>12h) from stroke onset. NIHSS was recorded at baseline, during HOB, at 24h and 48h. The modified Rankin scale (mRS) score was utilized as the outcome measure (favorable when 0-2).Results: We studied 34 patients (age 78±13y, male 47%, median NIHSS 19 (14-21)) at 16±11 hours from stroke. Ipsilateral extracranial and/or intracranial occlusion was present in 61%. Frontal CBF decreased in both hemispheres after HOB (-5±14%). A paradoxical response (increase/no change) was observed in 18%. rCBF was not correlated to NIHSS and age. Unfavorable outcome was found in 85%. Only at early hours (<12h, n=16), rCBF to HOB elevation in the ipsilateral (not in contralateral) hemisphere (p=0.04, Figure 1) and NIHSSHOB (p=0.008) were associated with poor outcome.Conclusions: This result suggests that paradoxical CBF response to a mild HOB elevation in the early hours of stroke onset is associated with a poor outcome in patients with AIS. Optical continuous monitoring in the bedside may help to individualize management strategies in the early hours of AIS.Figure 1: rCBF due to HOB elevation versus mRS for the ipsi-lateral side in patients measured <12h after stroke.

Buick LaCrosse: eAssist® Overview
If the vehicle has eAssist, there are several additional features which contribute to increased efficiency.
Vehicles with eAssist have an automatic engine start/stop feature.
This feature saves fuel by shutting the engine off when the vehicle is stopped. When the engine shuts off automatically, all the accessories will continue to operate normally. In very hot or cold conditions, the engine will only shut off automatically part of the time. See Starting the Engine.
There are two air conditioning settings available. The comfort setting maximizes cabin comfort.
The eco setting maximizes efficiency allowing more frequent, and longer engine stops than the comfort setting. See Dual Automatic Climate Control System.
This vehicle has a Hill Start Assist (HSA) feature, which may be useful when the vehicle is stopped on a grade. See Hill Start Assist (HSA).
Vehicles with eAssist have a slightly different instrument cluster, which includes an efficiency gauge, and an AUTO STOP indicator on the tachometer. See Instrument Cluster. There is also a Power Flow Gauge in the Driver Information Center (DIC). See Driver Information Center (DIC).
The eAssist system uses a high voltage battery, which is cooled with air drawn from the vehicle interior.
The cold air intake for the battery is located behind the rear seat, on the filler panel. Do not cover the intake.

While the weather and crowds are at their peak, median airfare and nightly hotel rates are lower this summer in Orlando. The amusement park mecca takes WalletHub's second spot for best places to visit this summer and KAYAK's third spot for wallet-friendly destinations. Median round-trip airfare from U.S. and Canadian destinations is about $200, with nightly hotel rates hovering around $125.
No. 4. South Beach – Miami Beach, Fla. People watching is a great pastime in Miami's South Beach, which draws celebrities and models. Travelers love the wide, fine, white sand-covered beaches as well as the surrounding area, known for wild nightlife and excellent restaurants. "Direct access to the beach! The promenade is always full of people walking, biking and strolling with their dogs and families. Very clean and well-kept area," wrote a TripAdvisor reviewer. • Beachfront bargain hotel nearby: Room Mate Lord Balfour, from $264 per night on TripAdvisor • Great airfare found on TripAdvisor: As low as $107 round-trip from LGA (New York) to MIA (Miami) wsfurlan, Getty Images/iStockphoto
Sure, Iceland is cold, but there's still plenty to do on a Winter Iceland Family Adventure. Kids age 12 and up can snorkel with you in the crystalline waters of the Silfra fissure, an opening between the North American and Eurasian continents. Explore the old harbor and famous Hallgrimskirkja church in Reykjavik, the capital city, and then venture into the largest man-made ice cave in the world, at Langjokull Glacier. The whole family can learn how the island's natural phenomena were formed by volcanic and geothermal forces when you hike at scenic Skaftafell National Park.
Why: The Greek Island of Karpathos offers much of the same allure as chic Santorini and Mykonos, but with the advantage of lower prices. Karpathos is the second largest of the Dodecanese Island chain, which includes better-known Rhodes. Karpathos dates back to the 5th century BC, offering history buffs a way to have two trips in one, combining sun and sand with a step back in time. Ancient ruins can still be seen at Aghia Anastasia, while the island's history can be studied in more detail in the Archaeological Museum. Beyond lounging on white-sand beaches, active travelers can choose from a selection of sports: fishing, windsurfing, snorkeling, scuba diving and sailing. Away from the well-worn tourist path, Karpathos has hillsides covered in vibrant wild flowers and small villages like Arkasas to explore. The island's capital, Pighadia, is a modern city, but in small towns like Olympos, traditional dress is still worn day-to-day and life has the authentic feel of the past. Karpathos has many apartments and studios to rent, resulting in real savings. There are plenty of budget hotels under $100. Multiple restaurants and tavernas dot the countryside, where you can savor traditional Greek dishes at low prices.
Here is my favorite quote from the first section "In the next stage, blackout, you'll lose your sight entirely and finally, you'll pass our because of g-force-induced loss of consiousness. However, if the g-force increase is rapid, you might pass out before you notice anything is wrong. . . .Keep in mind that no all g-forces affect you in the same way. Force exerted from head to toe can be much more damaging than force exerted from the chest to the back. That's why your seatback is parralel to the ground during launch."
If you're looking for a deep-dish pizza, world-class hockey, or a walk through Millennium Park, we can help you see—and eat—it all with a Chicago vacation package. There's always something to do here in the crown jewel of Illinois, from a walk on Navy Pier to the gorgeous boutiques on the Magnificent Mile. Pardon our pun, but we're sure "The Windy City" will "blow" you away!
Why you should go: Goa's coastal-scapes are sumptuous, wrangling the perfect balance of untouched beauty and clean, cared-for strands. Tourist creature comforts abound: jungle parties, seafood feasts, drop-in yoga on the beach. But you'll get the gratification of skipping off the beaten track too. Spending another $18 a day will get you a motorbike and unlimited access to backwoods lagoons and hidden beaches, where it'll be just you and the sea turtles bathing.
Family vacations can supply lifelong memories, but to ensure that every member of the family is satisfied, it's important to travel to the perfect locale. U.S. News, with the help of reader votes and expert opinion, gathered a list of travel destinations that offer reasonable rates and activities the whole family can enjoy. We hope you find these ideas helpful when planning your next trip, and we invite you to cast your vote for your favorite places below.
Satellite Beach is a lesser-known but equally lovely section of the Atlantic coast. If you're planning on visiting in June or July, you can enjoy sea turtle nesting season. Check in with the Sea Turtle Preservation Society for a guided tour. Once booked, you'll be led out by expert guides equipped with the knowledge (and turtle-friendly lighting) to find mama turtles as they venture onshore to lay their eggs. Truly amazing!
For the most savings, fly into Dar es Salaam via a stopover in Istanbul with Turkish Airlines, Abu Dhabi with Etihad, or Dubai with Emirates. This way, you can get two vacations for the price of one flight ... since you'll already be spending a decent amount on airfare. Once you're in the Tanzania port city, you can take a 90-minute ferry for $35 to Zanzibar.
The toughest part about being a pint-size tourist in Costa Rica is that many of the activities are often — literally — out of reach, with size, weight or age restrictions. Instead, peg your adventure to nature. Manuel Antonio National Park, which stretches from the Pacific coast up into the mountainous rainforest, is brimming with wildlife: Hundreds of species of mammals and birds live within its 1,700 acres. (If you don't spot a few white-headed capuchin monkeys, you aren't looking.) Visitor numbers are capped, so start early, and take the flat, easy main trail. Pack a swimsuit for this family vacation: Off the trail is the famous Playa Manuel Antonio, with warm blue waters and a crescent-shaped ivory-sand beach. (Note: The park is closed on Mondays.)
Attractions, Family, Kids (Amusements, aquarium, mini golf, museums, etc.) Nature, Sports & Outdoors (National park, hiking, horseback riding, trout fishing, whitewater rafting, skiing & snow, golf, shooting sports, etc.) Arts & Cultural (Crafts, demonstrations, music, winery, etc.) Entertainment & Special Events (Parades, exhibits, live shows, food, etc.) Shopping (Mountain crafts, galleries, candy, etc.) Dining (Casual, southern, ethnic cuisine, etc.) Weddings/Marriage (Chapels, ministers, flowers & photography, etc.) Transportation (Maps, driving tours, etc.)
Although this Playa del Carmen hotel includes "liquor drips" with free tequila right in your hotel room, it's not a destination for spring breakers as no parties are allowed in rooms, and no wild partying can happen on the property either. It does, however, offer a good time at a budget price, surrounded by tropical palms on a beautiful powdery white sand beach. The buffet restaurant serves up a wide variety of dishes, and there are also themed international restaurants and live cooking shows, included in the all-inclusive packages. Guests can also enjoy swimming in the freshwater pool set right next to the sea, and indulging in a variety of treatments and massage at the Renova Spa. Entertainment is offered daily and includes dancing, live music and shows.
Why you'll love it: The Lake Cumberland State Resort Park is located on one of the ten largest man-made lakes in the country, and it's one of the top vacation destinations in the eastern United States. But, it's still affordable, with elementary school-aged activities such as horseback riding ($18), miniature golf ($4), and a boating adventure to Cumberland Falls ($9), all within easy budget reach.
Albania: Summer is arguably the best time for a European vacation because of the great weather and easy accessibility, but popular cities are crowded and expensive. Check out Albania as an alternative to pricey Mediterranean destinations. While direct airline routes are hard to come by from the U.S., Tirana (the country's main international airport) recently opened up routes with Wizz Air, and has affordable fares from London-area airports for under $200 round-trip.

Active Getaways: It's amazing how many things kids are interested in if you sit down and talk to them about it. A 12-year-old may want to take a cooking class and learn how to prepare meals using farm-fresh ingredients with the hotel chef. A 5-year-old may want to see a polar bear swimming in a pool in a local zoo. A 3-year-old may be extremely interested in building various machines from blocks and legos so his ultimate dream vacation may be a morning spent at Legoland. Getaways with a touch of adventure create fun memories. In California, visit Safari West and watch unique wildlife in a natural setting. Take a cruise aboard Disney Fantasy, a mega ship that offers many things to do and comfortable staterooms with an extra half bath. At Vista Verde Ranch in Colorado, kids can go horseback riding and learn about the inns and outs of a working dude ranch. Lake Villarrica in Chile is a stunning lakeside getaway with a view of a volcano. Explore the natural wonders of the Pikes Peak region of Colorado, go horseback riding and visit a zoo. Other cheap family vacations include Yellowstone and Jackson Hole where you will be surrounded by the spectacular Tetons.
What to do? Strike a pose in the reflective Cloud Gate sculpture (affectionately known as the Bean). It's like a giant fun house mirror. Splash around in the cheeky, animated Crown Fountain, which literally makes faces at you. Join one of the free activities (family yoga, anyone?) on the big lawn or rent bikes from Bike and Roll Chicago or Divvy Bikes Millennium Park to ride to nearby Navy Pier.
What to do? Get a look at Plymouth Rock, where colonists first set foot on American soil. You won't believe how tiny it is. Costumed actors recreate what it was like on the crossing and in the settlement. As you roam through the 17th century village, you'll encounter farmers, cooks, blacksmiths and other residents, and hear their stories about life in the New World. Meet actual Native Americans at the Wampanoag Homesite, and learn about their cooking, crafts and culture. Make sure to save time for a visit to the nearby Plimoth Grist Mill where you can see how they grind corn and even buy it to take home!
Why you should go: Not only is it arguably the greatest swinging-around-a-stage-in-purple-sequined-zebra-print-pants anthem of David Lee Roth-era Van Halen, it's a slinky, skinny swatch of land with the Caribbean Sea on one side and the Pacific on the other. Smaller than South Carolina, it boasts 1,800 miles of ocean coastline and 5 million acres of national parks on the inside. For those who enjoy stylishly restored ruins, Panama City's old quarter, Casco Viejo, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site that dates back to the 1600s and is now filled with hipstery shit, because of course it is. This cobblestoned city center is surrounded by the ultra-sleek, modern, quasi-futuristic skyscrapers of Panama City, which kind of looks like Rio without the smog and soon-to-be decaying Olympic infrastructure. - Nicole Rupersburg, Thrillist contributor
Why you should go: Sofia is one of Europe's coolest overlooked capitals, with ancient ruins and salmagundi architecture in Ottoman mosques and Red Army monuments. In the past few years, its streets have proliferated with graffiti art, skateboarder girls, and shabby-chic bars where you can while away days and evenings. A city trip is easily paired with a few more days at the Black Sea on the Bulgarian Riviera. You'll find a gorgeous seaside that rivals plenty of more-lauded Mediterranean stretches -- again but for a sweet fraction of the cost.
Where do we go on the West Coast? Explore California's scenic coastal towns, have fun at Disneyland, tour Hollywood and check into a full service spa resort for a few days of pampering and relaxation. Some family-friendly ski resorts to try on the West Coast include Mammoth, Badger Pass and Snowmass. San Diego is a popular destination for families with kids, offering amusement parks, beaches, the New Children's Museum, Maritime Museum and a zoo which will keep little ones busy.
Why you'll love it: Naples-area beaches are regularly ranked among the best in the world, landing on TripAdvisor's Travelers' Choice Awards for the Top 25 Beaches in the U.S. Families can learn to skimboard on Naples Beach; then take a stroll to the iconic Naples Pier, where fishermen hang their lines in hopes of a bite. For a peaceful beach scene, head to Tigertail Beach Park on Marco Island.
Why you should go: Goa's coastal-scapes are sumptuous, wrangling the perfect balance of untouched beauty and clean, cared-for strands. Tourist creature comforts abound: jungle parties, seafood feasts, drop-in yoga on the beach. But you'll get the gratification of skipping off the beaten track too. Spending another $18 a day will get you a motorbike and unlimited access to backwoods lagoons and hidden beaches, where it'll be just you and the sea turtles bathing.

Writing in Slingshot issue 322, Steve Neate extols 54mm as the "scale of the Gods."
Have you ever played an Ancients game with 54mm figures?
Tried to get into a 54mm Ancients game at HISTORICON 2017. Sadly, it was full-up -- but looked magnificent!
When I was a kid! Not since then though.
I've used 54mm figures as tokens for divine influence for 28mm forces. The gods would battle, changing the odds for the humans, the humans would fight, creating power for the gods.
So … yeah. Scale of the gods.
I took part in a 54mm game based on the Charlton Heston movie "The Warlord."
Yes, Commands and Colours Ancients with 54s instead of blocks. Hurray for HaT!
Not sure if they are still there, but there were pictures on the HaT site of a DBx game played with 54mm plastics. Looked superb.
Yes – did DBA with 54mm Punic Wars figures. 42mm too…
For a long while I've been tempted to do a Gallic Wars project in 54mm. This blog contains a lot of inspiration: romansgohome.blogspot.com Asterix and company would need to make an appearance, naturally!
I play Pigs Wars with 54s. I have some photos posted on the Pig Wars yahoo site.
Recently played a "fantasy" 54mm Army Men game, Green attacking the Tan forces, with a beach landing, a fight up a hill, attacking water turbine generators along the way to the city, where the Green had to stop a train coming in, with reinforcements. It was played out on a 30-foot long, by 12-feet wide, table. It was a blast!
Developing and constructing multi-story buildings, out of MDF, for a city fight, building to building. The Green will be attempting to rescue hostages from one of the buildings, with the Tan defending. The table will be the same size: 12-feet by 30-feet, virtually covered by buildings. We will have a river, a green-space city park, and DUKS navigating their way up the roadways, and possibly the river, too.
I've gamed in 6mm, all the way up to 54mm. I love my 25mm fantasy games (I do! I do!), but I really enjoy my 54mm games with Army Men figures. If you have never gamed in 54mm scale, give it a try, whatever the genre. It is a blast! I highly recommend 2"-square MDF bases. Hot glue your figures to the MDF, texture the base, and game! Cheers!
Ancients, no. ACW and AWI, yes.
