Apple Store Lincoln Park: Sneak peek

Title: Apple Store Lincoln Park: Sneak peek

It's a store with three entrances
And while that might seem unimportant, it's all part of the Apple design philosophy. At the North Avenue entrance - conveniently on the north side of the building, it's all about retail. That's where you go in to see every single product Apple sells. The south entrance is the Clybourn entrance, and it's there you go to learn via One To One or a workshop. And then there's the center entrance facing the CTA station and new public space which features a courtyard with tables, benches, a fountain and Wi-Fi.

In my opinion, I think that place is very old, especially the old color that area! you know? The Apple store to give people the feeling is very modern! So, I think  Steve Jobs have to change everything here!

Wait for it, Chicago(Reading blog the 8th )

Title: Wait for it, Chicago
By Tracy Swartz on 10.22.10
I read an artical which is talking about waiting in Chicago.At the beginning,the author give us a question " Is the City that Works also the City that Waits? ".The beer lines at fests or the brunch lines on Sundays give us the answer.

A lot of people consider that certain goodies are worth the wait. Some of them said that they didn't mind waiting about 10 minutes with friends for lunch.But any longer would have tested their patience.Also,some people like to go somewhere quick and straightforward when their children are hungry.

I think that people don't like lines but they will stand in them if they're curious about a new product or service and they don't know about the product's quality.However,people hate to wait in line for groceries and gasoline, because they know what they're getting, but they'll stand to wait for something they're interested in.

In my opinion,restaurants shouldn't let their lines get too long.Although the lines may attract tourists unfamiliar with the food, a long wait may frustrate longtime customers. If the weather is not good,they will feel even bad.

     Pumpkins are huge. And they are not just for carving, it also could be in menus, everywhere is pumpkins

  comment: When I first saw the pumpkin I think they cant use at eat ,it just for craving for hollween or just for look at them . I never think of the pumpkin can eat and taste good. I think I may go try one out

Usher don`t deny that last year`s messy divorce from Tameka Foster helped raise his profile. "people love a train wreck," he told play boy in the November issue. And the R&B has no plans to tie the knot again soon. Instead, he has another idea:" may be I can find a couple of women who are open-minded, "Usher said. " Look at how Hugh Hefner does it, with a harem of women." I would like to say there is no love between two famous people because as Usher said he may find a couple of open mind women it`s show to me he still want more than one open mind women for love. I don`t think he will be faithful even if he find one open mind woman and who care about him.

Michelle Obama says her grandfather loved jazz so much, he had speakers installed in every room of his house. even the bathroom. She said, " We accessed culture in Chicago, which is one of the premier cities in the country for the art." I would like to say Michelle Obama is a strong woman because she is in the white house and doing what she want in her life and for her family. I think she is so excited to listening jazz song because she loves her father and likes his interest. She said after listening the jazz song " I am done, I can go home now." It`s show to me how she was happy listening jazz song that her father like.

CTA official said sunday they were continuing to investigate a bus crash Saturday evening that sent 37 people to area hospitals. The accident happened about 6 p.m. when the bus ran off Lake Shore Drive just south of Interstate 55 and struck a tree, official said. The CTA has placed fourth, fifth or sixth in federal collision-rate rankings since 2002 compared with other large bus transit agencies. Last year, there were 271 "reportable collision" involving CTA buses, according to records. But those are only the accidents resulting in $25,000 or more in property damage or at least on individual taken to a hospital, which is the criteria set by the Federal Transit Administration.
In my opinion, the bus driver has to be careful when she/he is driving. He/She is responsible for the passengers' lives. Since I can't trust bus drivers I prefer to ride a train.

Cohabitation With out Marriage

Cohabitation With out Marriage

The estimated number of unmarried couples living together jumped 12 percent from 2009 to 2010, according to the population survey. Demographers belive the increase is couples delaying marriage because of the cost, avoiding marriage altogether or moving in without a long-terme plan because of short-terme financial pressures.

I believe beyond economics, a major reason for more cohabitation is couples who have children but don't get married for others, moving in is a natural extension of dating.

Some of the 33 miners who were rescued las week after 69 days trapped underground returned Sunday for an emotionally charged religious service. the miners, their families and friends attended an interfaith ceremony. "The ceremony was beautiful," said Mario Gomez, who at 63 is the oldest of the 33 men.
Psychological effects, Chilean Health Minister Jaime Manalich said Friday that some of the men who were rescued from the San Jose mine are showing signs of disorientation as they struggle to become reacquainted with life above ground.


In my opinion that was very hard because was too much days in underground.
