Museum Campus A lakefront park connecting the Adler Planetarium and Astronomy Museum, the field Museum and the john G. Shedd Aquarium. Perfect for tours, family excursions, and education. http://www.museumcampus.org/
Extractions: The Museum Campus grounds feature terraced gardens, lush green spaces and broad walkways, which provide an easy and scenic route to the three museums. This setting allows the museums to extend their teaching outdoors, working with the Chicago Park District and the City of Chicago to provide educational and recreational programming that combines learning and fun. Museum Campus Chicago manages transportation and visitor service issues on behalf of the three museums as well as the programming and promotion of the park space. It also provides free trolley service between the three museums, the surrounding parking lots and nearby public transit stations. The vision for the Museum Campus dates back to the 1890s, when architect and city planner Daniel Burnham's "Plan for Chicago" described a continuous lakefront park stretching from Grant Park downtown to Jackson Park on the South Side. But as the city's transportation needs grew and highways sprung up, the lakefront museums were bisected by the northbound lanes of U.S. 41 or Lake Shore Drive. Plans to reunify the museums were first proposed in the 1980s, but it was Mayor Richard M. Daley who in 1995 committed to moving Lake Shore Drive to create the 57-acre extension of Burnham Park.

Extractions: Countdown To Iraqi Self Rule Limited Sovereignty Rearranging The Deck Chairs On The Titanic Days Hours Minutes Seconds I, unfortunately, was unable to get my act together enough to Tivo Zinni's appearance on 60 minutes. However, Ogged points out this tasty little sound bite of Zinni's on the show. There's one statement that bothers me more than anything else. And that's the idea that when the troops are in combat, everybody has to shut up. Imagine if we put troops in combat with a faulty rifle. And that rifle was malfunctioning and troops were dying as a result. I can't think of anybody that would allow that to happen; that would not speak up. Well what's the difference between that and a faulty plan, and a faulty concept and strategy that's getting just as many troops killed, and is leading down a path where we're not succeeding in accomplishing the missions we've set out to do? Over and over and over I've heard the refrain from the 101st Fighting Keyboarders that troops are just supposed to shut up. I've heard them lambasting the occasional soldier who dared to even suggest that we might, you know, be doing the wrong thing. Court martialed and thrown in the brig to rot (if not worse).
Welcome To Club Austin Nationallevel development club for track and field and distance running for post-collegiate runners. Includes photos, results of races, and a list of athletes in the club. http://www.che.utexas.edu/~john/club_austin/
Extractions: Club Austin is a national level development club for track and field and distance running. We are dedicated to the promotion of track and field for distance runners through a team training environment. Our goal is to lengthen the careers of runners once they leave school and improve distance running in the Central Texas area. It only makes sense that for runners to reach their potential they must continue running after college. As any distance runner knows long periods of high quality training are the key to continued improvement and success and we at Club Austin would like to be the start of a support system that would allow this kind of training to take place after the collegiate years. We plan on doing this by:

In Flanders Fields, Poem By John McCrae the front. Click here for the complete book In Flanders Fields and other Poems by john McCrae (1919), in PDFformat. Click here http://www.geocities.com/~worldwar1/mccrae.html
Extractions: The poem "In Flanders Fields" by the Canadian army physician John McCrae ( picture left ) remains to this day one of the most memorable war poems ever written. It is a lasting legacy of the terrible battle in the Ypres salient in the spring of 1915. The most asked question is: why poppies Wild poppies flower when other plants in their direct neighbourhood are dead. Their seeds can lie on the ground for years and years, but only when there are no more competing flowers or shrubs in the vicinity (for instance when someone firmly roots up the ground), these seeds will sprout. There was enough rooted up soil on the battlefield of the Western Front; in fact the whole front consisted of churned up soil. So in May 1915, when McCrae wrote his poem, around him bloodred poppies blossomed like no one had ever seen before. But in this poem the poppy plays one more role. The poppy is known as a symbol of sleep. The last line We shall not sleep, though poppies grow / In Flanders fields might point to this fact. Some kinds of poppies can be used to derive opium from, from which morphine can be made. Morphine is one of the strongest painkillers and was often used to put a wounded soldier to sleep. Sometimes medical doctors used it in a higher dose to put the incurable wounded out of their misery.

Extractions: The Dakota and Strawberry Fields Memorial O n December 8, 1995, the fifteenth anniversary of John's death, I was in New York City to attend the issue ceremony for new John Lennnon commemorative stamps. The ceremony was held at the Hard Rock Cafe and I invite all of you to read my account of the event. Later on in the day, my wife and I went to the Strawberry Fields memorial and the nearby Dakota building. I'd like to share with you some pictures and thoughts of my visit to these two sites which serve as reminders of John Lennon's life and death. T he Dakota building, located on the northwest corner of 72nd Street and Central Park West, was the place John Lennon called home for the latter part of his life. It is the place where he devoted all his attention to raising his son Sean. It is also the place where he was murdered as he and Yoko Ono were returning home late one night after their days' work at a recording studio. Strawberry Fields is the name given to a garden in Central Park dedicated in memory of John Lennon. The entrance to the memorial is located directly across the street (Central Park West) from the Dakota building. It is a triangular shaped piece of land whose main focal point is a beautiful circular mosaic of inlaid stones sent in from countries all over the world. In the center of the mosaic is John's simple plea to the world IMAGINE. W e took a cab from Midtown Manhattan through Central Park. I've been told the park is quite beautiful, but it was a complete blur to me. I was too busy thinking about our destination to realize that I should be enjoying my first ride through Central Park. Once there, we quickly found the path leading to the Strawberry Fields memorial. Perhaps it was so easy to find because it was punctuated by a street vendor selling Strawberry Fields t-shirts. We entered the pathway and about 20 feet into it we came upon the sign announcing the Strawberry Fields memorial.

John McCrae: In Flanders Fields john McCrae In Flanders Fields (1915). Canadian poet john McCrae was a medical officer in both the Boer War and World War I. A year http://www.wsu.edu:8080/~wldciv/world_civ_reader/world_civ_reader_2/mccrae.html
Extractions: Canadian poet John McCrae was a medical officer in both the Boer War and World War I. A year into the latter war he published in Punch magazine, on December 8, 1915, the sole work by which he would be remembered. This sonnet commemorates the deaths of thousands of young men who died in Flanders during the grueling battles there. It created a great sensation, and was used widely as a recruiting tool, inspiring other young men to join the Army. Legend has it that he was inspired by seeing the blood-red poppies blooming in the fields where many friends had died. In 1918 McCrae died at the age of 40, in the way most men died during that war, not from a bullet or bomb, but from disease: pneumonia, in his case.
John Snow Info john Snow (18131858). References Rosenberg, Charles E. The Cholera Years. Chicago The University of Chicago Press. 1962. Snow, john. Snow on Cholera. http://www.cdc.gov/ncidod/dbmd/snowinfo.htm
Extractions: John Snow, a creative if unassuming London physician, achieved prominence in the mid-nineteenth century as an obstetrician who was among the first to use anesthesia. It is his work in epidemiology, however, which earns him his position as a prototype for CDC's Division of Bacterial and Mycotic Diseases epidemiologists. During the 1830s and 1840s, when severe cholera epidemics threatened London, Snow had become interested in the cause and transmission of the disease. In 1849, he published a brief pamphlet, On the Mode of Communication of Cholera , suggesting that cholera is a contagious disease caused by a poison that reproduces in the human body and is found in the vomitus and stools of cholera patients. He believed that the main, although not only, means of transmission was water contaminated with this poison. This differed from a commonly held theory that diseases are transmitted by inhalation of vapors. The pamphlet caused no great stir, and Snow's argument was only one of many hopeful theories proposed during a time when cholera was causing great distress. Snow was able to prove his theory in 1854, when another severe epidemic of cholera occurred in London. Through painstaking documentation of cholera cases and correlation of the comparative incidence of cholera among subscribers to the city's two water companies, he showed that cholera occurred much more frequently in customers of one water company, the Southwark and Vauxhall. This company drew its water from the lower Thames, where it had become contaminated with London sewage, whereas the other company obtained water from the upper Thames. Snow's evidence soon gained many converts.
