You might not know it, but Chicago is on its best behavior Monday. Thousands of visitors from 70 countries are meeting at McCormick Place to make tourism deals.
It's like the Windy City is on one big job interview, competing for billions in tourism dollars.
Thousands of international tourism representatives came to McCormick Place to buy travel packages, nearly $5 billion in travel business will be done here and Chicago is expected to get a big piece of that pie.
IPW 2014 is the travel industry's biggest event. It typically generates business for the host city, in this instance Chicago, for about three years after it's all over. Chicago is re-branding its worldwide image, trying to be the top destination in the U.S.
For the first time ever, Chicago's unions lined up to applaud and welcome the delegates to McCormick Place, to the bagpipe music of the Shannon Rovers, a Chicago-style welcome.
"Chicago last had this in 1998 and it has changed so much, The host city gets more business," US Travel Association President, CEO Roger Dow told FOX 32 News. "Chicago's doing a great job."
The IPW did studies that indicate the business done here supports more than 100,000 jobs in the country - 5,000 of them in Chicago. They say international travelers drop an average of $4,500 dollars per person when they visit the US.

A 10 minute session is equivalent to a one hour workout in the gym and can burn up to 350 calories, meaning the vibration training is fast, simple, safe and effective training tool for improving fitness and health.
It generates vibrations that are transferred to your body and when you're using it you'll notice that your body automatically responds with a stretch reflex, causing the muscle to involuntarily contract.
There are 6 speed settings and a manual mode to chose from that are great for improving strength, circulation, flexibility, metabolism, fitness, posture, reducing cellulite and stimulating bloodflow, bone density, lymph drainage, fat combustion. Lowers cholesterol and boosts happy hormone serotonin, as well as repairing damaged tissue.
It can also be used to help with aches and pains or as an effective warm-down after intensive exercise.

CHICAGO (AP) — Chicago election officials say personal data, including partial Social Security numbers, were exposed online for approximately 1,200 people.
The Chicago Tribune reports (http://trib.in/TDgt8U ) that the election officials denied a wider breach alleged by a computer security firm Tuesday.
Chicago Board of Elections Commissioners spokesman Jim Allen says the firm, Forensicon, is exaggerating the problem.
Forensicon announced Tuesday it had uncovered a "massive security breach" affecting up to 1.7 million registered voters.
Allen says a mistake by the election authority caused a database to be exposed online. The database included names, addresses, drivers' license numbers and the last four digits of Social Security numbers of around 1,200 people who had applied to work at Chicago polling places on Election Day.

Length: 17' 7" - Width: 21.50" - Starting at: $1999.00See More Details about this Kayak
Now that I had more confidence in it's downwind / going with waves handling, I took it out in 2m waves and had a blast. It surfed very very well.
I had a lot of faith in the designers at Valley and knew some of my doubts would come to pass and boy was I right. What a difference moving the seat back 1" made.
The skeg is a bit vague and really less effective than the one I had on my Aquanaut Club RM. Running with the wind/ waves even with the skeg fully down does not stop weathercocking completely. I'm not sure if this is due to the swede form design or me being at the low end of the recommended weight (I'm 175-180lbs). In short I have to do a lot more edging and sweeps in certain conditions.
As for speed, it's slower than the 'Naut but not by much. It also feels more porky. I've also surfed some small waves and it was ok. As this boat handles completely different than the 'Naut, I'm still taking my time to figure out it's handling characteristics before venturing out on some real nasty stuff.
Overall still happy with my purchase.
As a previous Aquanaut RM owner I found the Etain familiar but different. The triple layer poly was rock solid and can take major abuse. The low point is that at close to 60lbs there is a bit more heft to carry from car to launch point. The new Valley seat is a huge improvement over the old and I cannot find any fault in terms of comfort. The new back band is better but I still replaced it with an Immersion Research lounge back band with the pro straps installed ( I can't say enough good things about this set-up!). The original thigh pad placements were uncomfortable. I moved them forwards, drilled some new holes and rebolted them in place. Easy fix. The rubber hatches work well and are easy to put on and off. I fitted some bungy cords with plastic snap clips to secure the hatches to the deck rigging. I also bolted the day pod/4th hatch to the hull and used rubber washers to keep it watertight. I did this because I saw a video on Vimeo that showed the pod blowing off in surf as well, the pod easily moves out of place when you remove the hatch. Another easy fix.
I have only taken it out once for a 10km paddle in calm conditions as it is still cold on Lake Ontario in March. The primary and secondary stability were just awesome compared to my previous two 18ft kayaks....I can't wait to go out in white caps! I also find the Etain is more responsive to turn than the Aquanaut. As some pebbles jammed the skeg in the up position I can't comment on it. The good news is that even though the wind picked up the tracking was still very good. I still think the rope & cleat system was more robust and reliable than the slider system as I never had a skeg jam with it. I did not bring my GPS but I was probably doing 6-7 km/hr (I still need to build up my endurance after my winter break from kayaking).
All in all a very nice kayak that should complement my requirement for a kayak that is good for day tripping, multi-day camping and handling rough conditions. I also wanted something that could take the abuse of hitting rocks and being dragged out of the water. So far this boat is a home run! I gave it a 9 because I still needed to do a few modifications to make it perfect.

Virgo Horoscope 2014
- Category: Horoscope 2014
- Published on September 06, 2013
- Written by Lynda Forman
The Year of Settling Down
While you might not realize it, your life is about to change – and not in the ways it has been changing lately. You're ready for something slower, something that makes you feel like you're like everyone else. To be honest, you've been looking forward to things being boring again. When things are boring, you can control them more easily. And while things are never going to be easy, you'd like a little bit of a break – and 2014 looks like the year for it.
Virgo Career and Work Horoscope for 2014
Your career has been the last thing on your mind in the past year. With all of the turmoil and upheaval, it would be nice to get back to work and to start enjoying some sort of normalcy. If you've been having troubles figuring out what to do now that your life is settling down, reach out to those around you. Ask what they think you should do now – they have been waiting to give you a push in 2014.
If you look around enough, you'll begin to see signs, signs you haven't noticed before now. You've been occupied with other things, and this has caused you to overlook the signs from the universe. No matter what you might believe in, something has been trying to tap you on the shoulder and point you in the right direction. Start listening and you'll be able to see things more clearly.
Work doesn't have to be what you expect it to be, and it may be that you just need to shift what you are doing right now. Sometimes, the slightest shift can yield the greatest changes. In fact, you might just surprise yourself when you do finally make the move from where you are to where you were always meant to be in life.
Virgo Love and Relationships Horoscope in 2014
You are completely blessed with the people who are around you. Even though you may not have been the best possible friend in the world, they understand. They know that your life has been a nightmare, and they want to see you happy again. Spend time with those you love, and start to laugh again when you can. You're being watched. You're being held, even by those who aren't around you all the time anymore.
This might also be a year where you begin to define what you want from others, outside of the crises you may have encountered. While you might know what to ask for when you need help, it's something entirely different when you need to ask for something that you just, well, need. Think about what you need to feel supported in your relationships, and be willing to ask for it, even if you're concerned the other person is going to say no.
Virgo Health Horoscope 2014
In the middle of all of the chaos and upset of the past few years, your health has been better than you may have expected. That doesn't mean you can take it for granted, however. Instead, you should think about how you could continue to improve your wellness, whether this means you spend more time exercising or you just add more fruits and vegetables to your diet. In any case, the goal for you should be to focus on how you can take action now, and change the way you feel.
With all of the stress of the past few years, it's not a bad idea either to focus on what you can do to repair your body during this time of repose. Whether this means you need to take some time for yourself, or you just need to spend time on a massage table – it doesn't really matter. What does matter is that you realize you are worth some extra time and some extra loving.
In 2014, Virgo, you have the chance to settle down and even relax. While you may not be willing to relax all the time, you have the chance to do so, and you have the ability to do so. Take this opportunity and breathe in the possibility that you don't have to worry all the time.

Java: Kawah Ijen from Banyuwangi
Kawah Ijen is one of the stunning highlights of a trip through Java and is a regular stop on many tours departing from Yogyakarta and ending up in Bali. The usual way of getting to Kawah Ijen on a tour involves heading to the inland town of Bondowoso and making your way up to the crater's carpark via the rutted road and returning the same way. Independent travellers usually catch an angkot from Bondowoso to the final town before the crater which is serviced by public transport and then make the final ascent by ojek. But we here at Travelfish.org believe there is a better way for independent travellers to access Kawah Ijen if coming from or heading to Bali which saves time by using the access road leading to Banyuwangi, right next to the port from where ferries depart to Bali.
Since Bondowoso lies inland in the hills 30 kilometres from the main highway which travels along the north coast of Java and Kawah Ijen is a further three hours from there, it takes much longer to travel via Bondowoso when travelling between Kawah Ijen and Bali than the alternative Banyuwangi route.
With this in mind, if travelling from Bali it is possible to hire an ojek in Banyuwangi for the journey up to Kawah Ijen, have the ojek driver wait for you to climb up to the crater. The ojek can then to take you onwards to the bus terminal in Bondowoso or to a waiting angkot in the first town on the way down from the crater that is serviced by public transport, Sempol. This way you can avoid having to backtrack and waste time.
The same is true for those travelling in an easterly direction from places such as Gunung Bromo. Buses from dusty Probolinggo on the coast below Gunung Bromo will take you directly to Bondowoso, where most will stay overnight before taking an angkot to Sempol early the next day. From Sempol it is possible to hire an ojek who will take you to Kawah Ijen, wait for you and then take you onwards to Banyuwangi or a further six kilometres to the ferry port for onward travel to Bali.
The road from Banyuwangi to Kawah Ijen starts off in great condition, but as you get closer to the top, it deteriorates into something resembling the surface of the moon. It's steep, rocky and even cars have trouble traversing it. But that's part of the adventure of travelling this way. After a few voluntary motorcycle dismounts and some involuntary near dismounts, you arrive at your destination a good few hours ahead of most other travellers choosing the more circuitous route via Bondowoso.
Whichever route you choose, the utlimate prize is witnessing Kawah Ijen — and that makes everything worthwhile.

Just FYI i travelled the road from Banyuwangi to Pos Paltuding (Kawah Ijen) three nights ago and am happy to report that its all sealed now and is an easy drive of just over an hour. I left at midnight, got there at 1.10 am and started walking straight up. I got a head start on everybody else and had the crater, miners, steam, sulhur and blue fire all to myself for about 45 minutes before the rest of the hikers arrived. Absolutely fantastic experience!
# androolon 22 Apr 2014 at 5:53 pm
any idea on how much it will cost for an ojek from banyuwangi for the journey up to kawah ijen, wait and down to bondowoso after?
# Adam Poskitton 23 Apr 2014 at 7:10 am
@androol – I paid 150,000 rupiah a couple of years back when the road was like the surface of the moon and incredibly difficult to pass. But the road has apparently been improved since then meaning a quicker journey and less wear and tear on the motorbike. By the same token, petrol prices have risen by 50% in that time. 150,000 rupiah would still be a reasonable price for the journey, but you might be able to get someone willing to do it more cheaply if you really look ask around.

A small, exploratory/feasibility trial in just ten patients has shown that a new therapy for MS that teaches the immune system to recognise and ignore its own nerve tissue, appears to be safe and well tolerated in humans.
The new treatment works by creating tolerance to selective myelin proteins that are attacked by the immune system (in MS) when it fails to recognise them as a normal part of the body.
If larger studies show that this therapy is able to slow down or stop the disease, this would be a completely new way to treat autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis (MS) and type 1 diabetes.

Crazy cell phone contracts for crazy Americans
The way we pay for cell phone service doesn't make sense.
This guest post comes from Frank Curmudgeon at Bad Money Advice.
Would you rather pay $399 now and $20 a month for two years, or $199 now and $30 a month for two years? If you are a rational consumer, you probably prefer the $399 deal. The other one is like a $200 loan at 20% interest.
And yet, according to a long and meandering article from The New York Times on the madness of cell phone pricing schemes, we wacky Americans preferred the iPhone at $199 with a $30 data plan over the previous deal of $399 with a $20 plan. I'm not sure I buy that. IPhone sales could have increased for a number of reasons, including the fact that the $199 phone was an upgraded version. Still, the Times piece does bring up a number of peculiarities about the economics of cell phones.
In case you live in a cave, I'll explain that here in the Land of the Free we "buy" heavily subsidized cell phones from the companies that run the cell phone networks and in exchange agree to a service contract with that network, generally for two years. The cell phone company takes a loss on the phone and makes it up on the service end.
- Bing: Worst cell phones
Even within our complex consumer culture, that's a fairly unique way to pay for something. It would be like Exxon selling cars at a big discount if you promised to buy their gas at $5 a gallon. The closest analogue I can think of is the classic razors/razorblades or printers/printer cartridges strategy.
But that's not quite the same thing. When you buy a printer you are not contractually obligated to buy a certain number of ink cartridges. You can stop using the printer anytime you want. And the manufacturer is banking on the assumption that you will underestimate how many cartridges you will buy in the future.
With cell phones, you know how much you will be forced to pay over two years. That means it should be very easy to work out what a phone will cost in total. So why bother with the subsidy and contract thing?
(The Times says what I thought to be true, that this is a uniquely American method and that those sensible Europeans buy phones like any other electronic gadget and pay for service separately. I mentioned this to the German teenager who lives in my house and she looked at me like I had two heads. Turns out, Germans buy subsidized cell phones on contracts too.)
I think that we pay for cell phones the way we do because of a combination of convention and mental accounting. Cell phones are phones, after all, and as we all know, you pay for phones monthly. Comparing an ongoing monthly expense to a lump sum requires the use of math and some knowledge of finance. Yuck.
And it's not just the math. We don't like moving things from one mental bucket to another, and changing from monthly to lump sum just upsets the way we think about our money. For example, ask yourself this: Which has more appeal, investing $1,000 in a CD that pays 4% or $1,000 in new appliances for your home that would save you $3.50 a month in utility bills? The appliance deal is a little better, but not as attractive to most people because swapping savings for lower ongoing payments isn't something we like to do.
This only scratches the surface of the oddities of the cell phone business. The Times also mentions, but does not really discuss, consumer preferences for buying a maximum number of minutes rather than paying for actual use, and the fact that providing cell phone service on the margin costs essentially nothing. It does not even bring up how or why AT&T will give you a phone for free by charging you $50 and rebating that back in the form of a gift card.
The article did have one disturbing tidbit. The average American cell phone user sent 518 text messages a month in the first half of this year. That's more than 17 a day. Average. I've never felt so old.

Greek coalition in serious doubt
Greek President Karolos Papoulias looks on before his meeting with Greek Socialist leader Evangelos Venizelos in Athens, Saturday, May 12, 2012. Greek President Karolos Papoulias has called the leaders of Greece's political parties to meetings on Sunday, in a last-ditch effort to broker a deal for a coalition government. (AP Photo/Aris Messinis, Pool)
ATHENS, Greece - Critical talks to form a governing coalition in crisis-struck Greece foundered once more, leading the country one step closer to new elections — and bringing its continued presence in the euro into serious doubt.
Last-ditch efforts by President Karolos Papoulias to broker a deal between wrangling party leaders ended with no deal in sight late Sunday, a week after national elections produced a deadlock, with no party winning enough seats to form a government.
State television said talks would continue Monday evening between the heads of the parties that came in the top three spots in the elections, the conservative New Democracy, radical left-wing Syriza and socialist PASOK, plus the head of the small Democratic Left party, which is in a king-maker position.
But Syriza said it would not attend the talks, state television said, throwing the entire meeting into question.
Syriza head Alexis Tsipras campaigned on a platform for Greece to pull out of its commitments in the international bailout agreement, which has given the country billions in rescue loans. He has insisted he can't back a government that won't overturn the harsh austerity measures taken in return for the bailout.
"Syriza refuses to be a left-wing alibi for a government that will continue the policies the people rejected on May 6," NET state television quoted Tsipras as saying.
Spokesmen for the three other parties said they would attend Monday's meeting.
Voters furious at the handling of Greece's financial crisis and two years of harsh austerity measures taken in return for the bailout loans punished the formerly dominant PASOK and New Democracy, which saw their support crumble to historic lows. Syriza made big gains, more than tripling its popularity to come in second place after campaigning on an anti-bailout platform.
New Democracy head Antonis Samaras, PASOK leader Evangelos Venizelos and Democratic Left head Fotis Kouvelis, agree a coalition must be formed that will work to guarantee Greece's continued presence in the euro, but have insisted it must have the participation or at least the support of Syriza.
In return for €240 billion ($310 billion) in rescue loans from the European Union and International Monetary Fund, Greece has imposed severe spending cuts, including slashing pensions and salaries in the public sector, and repeated rounds of tax hikes. The austerity has left Greece mired in a fifth year of deep recession, with unemployment spiraling above 21 per cent.
"After today's meeting it is obvious they are demanding that Syriza become an accessory to a crime," Tsipras said earlier, after the discussions with the president. "In the name of democracy, of our patriotic duty, we cannot accept this shared guilt. We call on all Greeks to condemn once and for all the forces of the past and to realize that only one hope remains: unity against blackmail in order to prevent the continuing barbarity.
"Fellow Greeks, we can assure you of one thing: we will not betray you."
If no solution can be found, Greece will have to hold new elections next month, prolonging the political uncertainty and bringing the country's continued membership in the euro into doubt.

The two women charged with escaping from the Janet S. York Correctional Institution in Niantic on Saturday apparently made their escape by fleeing to a location on nearby Roxbury Road, where they were picked up by someone in a vehicle, according to a court document.
Melissa Riley, 30, of Willimantic, and Jessica Rivera, 34, of Waterbury, were arrested at an undisclosed location in Hartford around 8 p.m. Sunday, about 24 hours after Department of Correction officials said the two woman had fled into the woods while walking from the gymnasium to their housing unit.
Riley was arraigned in New London Superior Court Tuesday on a charge of first-degree escape from custody. Rivera is due in court today.
According to an arrest warrant affidavit prepared by State Trooper Ben Duffy, a trooper and his canine tracked the women from the prison grounds to 238 Roxbury Road and found Riley's prison identification tag there in the snow. The canine track ended near the edge of the road, where it appeared a vehicle had been parked. Witnesses confirmed that a car had been parked in the area, according to the affidavit.
At the arraignment, Riley was accompanied by two correction officers and flanked by judicial marshals as she stood before Judge John J. Nazzaro. She was handcuffed in the front and wearing yellow Department of Correction garb.
Nazzaro set her bond at $100, noting a minimal bond is required because Riley is a prisoner and is not due to be released until Dec. 28, 2014. She is serving a 39-month sentence for possession of narcotics.
Rivera, who has previous convictions for robbery and burglary, is serving a four-year sentence for conspiracy. Correction officials said she had a previous escape, in 2006, from a community-release program.

From the director of frankenstein & jekyll & Hyde
Directed, Staged & Produced by Simon James Collier
Dracula, Bram Stoker's enduring horror classic tells the story of newly qualified lawyer Jonathan Harker, who arrives in Transylvania to meet with the mysterious Count Dracula and help him with the purchase of a London home. As a guest in Dracula's remote and crumbling castle, perched high in the Carpathian Mountains on the borders of Transylvania, Bukovina, and Moldavia, Harker soon discovers a darker side to both his new client and his foreboding castle, resulting in him becoming a prisoner there. Meanwhile, back in England, a catalogue of unsettling incidents unfolds. A Russian ship is wrecked on the rocks near the Yorkshire village of Whitby, there is no sign of its crew and its Captain is lashed to the helm. Strange puncture marks appear on the neck of a young woman, who is visibly wasting away before the eyes of the three suitors who had all proposed marriage on the same day. An inmate of the local lunatic asylum begins raving about the arrival of his 'Master', the ever elusive Count Dracula, who himself begins seducing Harker's devoted fiancée Wilhelmina "Mina" Murray. Harker escapes from his prison, and after recuperating in Budapest, he joins a determined group of adversaries led by Professor Abraham Van Helsing from Amsterdam in a cross-country chase back to Dracula's castle where they intend to have a one final show-down with the Count.

This new restaurant should bring some legitimacy to the dining scene in the Magic Kingdom, since there are only a few places worth mentioning in this park.
Here's to hoping the table service is phenomenal, and that the food will be "magnifique!"
Disney dining should be an experience that can't be duplicated elsewhere. It's not all about "rides" as it is about experiences when it comes to Disney.

The Earth's average surface temperature has increased by 1.4°F (0.8°C) since the early years of the 20th century. The 10 warmest years on record (since 1850) have all occurred since 1998. The 10 warmest years [1] to date are 2010, 2005, 1998, 2003, 2002, 2009, 2006, 2007, 2004, 2001.
The scientific consensus is that global warming is largely the result of increased atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gas emissions. The growth in emissions is caused by human activities, primarily fossil fuel combustion and changes in land use, such as agriculture and deforestation. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change [2] projects an increase of future average global surface temperature in the range of 2.0°F to 11.5°F (1.1°C to 6.4°C) by 2100, with warming in the United States expected to be about 50 percent greater. This warming, along with the associated changes in precipitation, drought, heat waves, and sea-level rise, will have important consequences for the U.S. environment and economy. Globally, climate change presents many challenges, particularly in poorer countries far less able to cope with a changing climate and in low-lying countries where sea level rise will cause severe damage to society and ecosystems.
C2ES's Science and Impacts Program educates the public and policymakers about the climate system and the environmental and economic implications of climate change for the United States, including impacts on natural ecosystems and resources, social systems, human health, and infrastructure. C2ES publishes a series of peer-reviewed scientific reports [3] written by experts on the environmental impacts of climate change. Workshops sponsored by C2ES explore the implications of environmental impacts for climate change policy. C2ES constantly builds relationships with members of the scientific, policy, and business community to increase awareness regarding the science and impacts of climate change.

Get an alert for markdowns and new arrivals of Eyeswim!
Eyeswim™ is a subsidiary of the parent company, Tropical Penguin, Inc. which was established in 1995. Steve Friederang, the President and CEO, has long envisioned providing swimmers and coaches with the kinds of tools Eyeswim specializes in. Having coached at every level, from the grassroots to professionals, Friederang understands how important underwater video training is for competitive swimmers.
At a swimming clinic in California, Friederang asked swim coaches from all over the country if they regularly use video in their coaching. To his disappointment, only a few hands went up which further solidified his resolve in bringing convenient, easy-to-use, and high-quality video recording equipment for swimmers and coaches to use. Underwater video recording, above water filming, the Eyeswim products do it all.
All the DVDs, books, and hands-on coaching could never substitute the value of recording your laps and strokes, analyzing the footage, and seeing the results. This is what the founder stresses and the reason why Eyeswim has been met with positive feedback. Every start, stroke, turn, and lap is recorded in high definition empowering the swimmer to truly become their own harshest critic. This is biggest reason for Eyeswim's existence, to shift the attention away from coaching and focus more on the actual swimming.
