Why You’ll Love It
Decadent penthouse suites
11-acre beach with sand, a wave pool, and the famous lazy river
Restaurants from Michael Mina, Hubert Keller, and Wolfgang Puck
It’s common knowledge that you’ll find some of the best nightlife, suites, and food in Las Vegas. But when it comes to finding them all in one place, there’s only one name in Sin City that matters: Mandalay Bay.

If you think there are no beaches in Nevada, think again. Mandalay Bay Beach’s world-famous aquatic playground features 2,700 tons of real sand, a wave pool, and a lazy river. Sip a cocktail and work on your tan—or try your luck at the beachside casino.

Your stay wouldn’t be complete without an indulgent meal at one of Mandalay Bay’s upscale eateries, including Hubert Keller’s Fleur and STRIPSTEAK by Michael Mina. Afterward, a massage at Spa Mandalay prepares you for a night of dancing and drinks at Mix Lounge or House of Blues.

Hatteras Kiteboarding – Kite Club Hatteras – Brownies Beach Road Chesapeake Beach, MD 20732

Hatteras Kiteboarding

Hatteras Kiteboarding

For $185, today’s side deal nets semi-private kiteboarding lesson for two (a $370 value) at Kite Club Hatteras, with locations in Avon, NC and Dewey Beach, DE

In one safe, three-hour lesson, Kite Club Hatteras’s friendly, expert instructor will guide riders through the basics of kiteboarding — an extreme water sport that pairs a small board with a large controllable kite to thrust riders across the water’s surface and into the air—in the beautiful Dewey Beach Area, which was awarded SUPERSTAR BEACH STATUS in June 2011.

In a thorough, hands-on class, riders will learn how to set up a four-line inflatable kite, the essentials of kite theory and the “wind window,” and proper procedures for selecting a weather-friendly location and communicating with fellow aeronauts. You’ll then soak in the dashing techniques necessary to perform, learning how to launch and land, fly the kite properly, and generate power to propel the board.

Soon, fusing careful movements with the power of bluster, you’ll defy earthbound physics to swish, cut, and fly above the water. Call to schedule your class.

23 incredible new technologies you’ll see by 2021

WHEN LOOKING AT THE present as an indication of where we’ll stand a year from now–much less a decade–feeling optimistic may not come easy. We look out to the universe and see an infinite, lifeless abyss enfolding upon our own small pocket of civilization, while the people we look to for guidance and information seem to be little more than straight-faced bearers of bad news.

Yet while we can’t predict what the future holds for our unending political discourses, we can look at how far we’ve come with technology in merely the last decade and realize the present we know now will, very soon, find itself memorialized in nostalgia. Here’s some technology emerging down the road that’s poised to change your life on a much greater scale than any outcome of a political debate.

Obon Festival 2012 – Ekoji Buddhist Temple, Fairfax Station, VA – Saturday, July 14, 2012…


Obon Festival 2012

Obon Festival 2012

DC Metro Filipino-American Group

Ekoji Buddhist Temple is celebrating its 31st Obon Festival on Saturday, July 14 at 5:30 p.m. with a full-evening of activities including traditional Japanese folk dancing, a memorial candle ceremony, children’s games and a taiko performance by Nen Daiko. Obon, or Bon, is a time of remembrance for our parents, grandparents and those who have come before us; it is a time to express our gratitude for all they have done for us, and for the interconnectedness of our lives.

The first video shows a group dance. I participated last year at the one in Ekoji. Sure I looked terrible but it was a lot of fun with friends. The second video shows the taiko drum performance they do every year. The last video is just general information about Obon Festival.

Bon Odori (盆踊り), meaning simply Bon dance is a style of dancing performed during Obon. Originally a Nenbutsu folk dance to welcome the spirits of the dead, the style of celebration varies in many aspects from region to region. Each region has a local dance, as well as different music. The music can be songs specifically pertinent to the spiritual message of Obon, or local min’yo folk songs. Consequently, the Bon dance will look and sound different from region to region. Hokkaidō is known for a folk-song known as “Soran Bushi.” The song “Tokyo Ondo” takes its namesake from the capital of Japan. “Gujo Odori” in Gujō, Gifu prefecture is famous for all night dancing. “Goshu Ondo” is a folk song from Shiga prefecture. Residents of the Kansai area will recognize the famous “Kawachi ondo.” Tokushima in Shikoku is very famous for its “Awa Odori,” or “fool’s dance,” and in the far south, one can hear the “Ohara Bushi” of Kagoshima

Obon is the Japanese Festival of the Dead in which Japanese believe the souls of the departed return home for a brief while. Obon is a Buddhist tradition but in the native Shinto faith there is the Mitama Festival which is in association with Obon. Mitama means soul of a deceased person.

At Yasukuni Shrine they celebrate Mitama/Obon Festival in July. Although a place of Shintoism, Yasukuni pretty does much of what traditional Obon celebrations do particularly Bon Odori (dances) and Toro Nagashi (place paper lanterns in the water). The only difference is the Mikoshi (portable Shinto shrine) which they march up to the shrine swaying and chanting.
