The wildly popular New Zealand ensemble, armed with high-octane ukulele solos, heavenly harmonies and outrageous costumes, create instant joy and lasting magic wherever they go. Their comedic banter is spontaneous, and when they burst into song, the sweet sounds can silence a room in a nanosecond, or bring a crowd of thousands to their feet. Delighting audiences of all ages, the orchestra’s signature sound features many types of ukuleles, a double bass and a host of gorgeous voices performing harmonious and hilarious renditions of modern and traditional tunes. The Wellington International Ukulele Orchestra presents the ukulele as it’s never been played before, and features songs made famous by artists such as Justin Timberlake, Dolly Parton, Elvis, The Beatles, Hall and Oates, Cyndi Lauper, Prince, Kenny Rogers and Kings of Leon, alongside tunes from the South Pacific, packaged into a spectacular, unmissable funfest.</td><td valign="middle" width="30%"><span style="font-weight: bold;">The American Theatre</span><br />

She has lived in three countries, speaks four languages and created her dance troupe, Company Stefanie Batten Bland, in 2008 in France so that she might better investigate the human condition and our relationship within the natural world. The troupe has performed live and via dance cinema throughout Europe, Asia, Africa and the States. Stefanie’s choreographic vision of contemporary dance - a vision recognized as a 2010 Baryshnikov Arts Center/Jerome Robbins NEW Fellow and 2011/12 Cambridge Who’s Who! of Professionals and Entrepreneurs - redefines community by illustrating the synergy that arises when interdisciplinary artists from varied backgrounds and cultures collide. Her works are based in dance, with a strong installation component which allows futuristic worlds to take place in space and time. Stephanie mixes European subtlety and American ardor to investigate physical notions of community, adding her own layer of dance to Mary Batten and Ed Bland’s artistic legacy of music and writing.</td><td valign="middle" width="30%"><span style="font-weight: bold;">The American Theatre</span><br />

Originally created as the house band for Fuzzy Wednesday, Virginia’s longest running open mic, the band soon began collaborating on original music and developing their own sound. Performing first at local venues and colleges, the band soon released Without Boundaries, followed by Collision, Change, and a Change of the Guards. Several years, albums, and three USO tours later, the band can count Iraq, Kuwait, Qatar, Dubai, Africa, Portugal, Italy, Turkey, Jordan, and England as second homes where they experienced bombings, medical emergencies involving IVs, and pseudo kidnapping & ransom scenarios all in the name of music.</td><td valign="middle" width="30%"><span style="font-weight: bold;">The American Theatre</span><br />

Described as “three sensational fiddlers from three distinct Celtic traditions” by the Boston Herald, the group features Kevin Burke, a giant of Irish music; renowned fiddler Christian Lemaître (Kornog) from Brittany, France; and sensational young Quebecois musician André Brunet (De Temps Antan, La Bottine Souriante). Called “three of the finest folk violinists anywhere” by The Washington Post, Celtic Fiddle Festival celebrates the violin in all its globe-trotting variations. Along with acclaimed guitarist Nicolas Quemener from Brittany, the quartet combines their talents, musical traditions, and spontaneous humor for an evening of dazzling energy and subtle grace. In concert, each artist plays a solo set, showcasing his individual musical styles and traditions, followed by a collaborative set featuring all four musicians. Together, they play with such relentless precision and fire that the tunes transcend all cultural and geographical barriers, leaving the audience with a memorable musical experience.</td><td valign="middle" width="30%"><span style="font-weight: bold;">The American Theatre</span><br />

<b>5 HOLIDAY TRAVEL TIPS</b></h2>
These simple steps can save you time and headaches with air travel, baggage and crowds<br />by: Alexis Flippin, Frommer’s Travel, from: AARP.org<br /><br /><br />'Tis the season to be traveling, whether you're jetting off to far-flung places or taking a road trip to see family. Crowded airports and gridlocked roads — not to mention free-floating anxiety — can make holiday travel a headache. With our holiday travel tips, though, it doesn't have to be.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

</h3>
These holiday travel tips will make your journey a breeze.<br /><span style="font-size: medium;"><b><br /></b></span><span style="font-size: medium;"><b>1. Avoid Flying at Peak Times</b></span><br />If your travel schedule is flexible, avoid flying on the busiest days of the season: the day before Thanksgiving and the two days immediately preceding and following Christmas and New Year's. Also, book flights at off-peak times, such as early morning. If at all possible, fly on the holiday itself, when airports have an almost empty, tumbleweed-blowing-in-the-desert feel.<br /><br /><br /><b><span style="font-size: medium;">2. Hit the Road With Technology by Your Side</span></b><br />Portable GPS navigators are wondrous things, providing the fastest and most direct routes to your destination — and voice auto-commands help keep your eyes on the road. Upgraded models offer real-time traffic information, but unless your car has built-in GPS capability, these can be pricey. A much more economical alternative — as infree — is Google Maps, available on most smartphones. It not only provides driving directions but also has color-coded lines indicating the severity of traffic ahead: green lines indicate good conditions, yellow means fair, and red or red/black signal poor conditions.<br /><br /><b><span style="font-size: medium;">3. Travel Light</span></b><br />Don't be weighed down with packages. Order gifts online, and have them sent directly to the recipient, or mail your packages ahead of time. If you're a procrastinator, you can take advantage of the annual Free Shipping Day on December 17, when some 1,500 merchants guarantee free delivery by Christmas Eve. And, if you're flying, don't wrap the gifts you bring — airlines have the right to open any wrapped package.<br /><br /><span style="font-size: medium;"><b>4. Don't Check Your Bags</b></span><br />The Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays are traditionally the busiest times to fly, which means the odds of losing your luggage rise exponentially with the increased air traffic. Not to mention the expense of paying $25 or more per bag. (Consider shipping your luggage ahead of time with these tips from AARP money expert Sid Kirchheimer.) Be on the safe side: carry on your luggage.<br /><br /><b><span style="font-size: medium;">5. Take the Back Roads</span></b><br />Driving the interstates can be dull at any time, but holiday travel often adds big-time gridlock to the mix. If you have some time on your hands, why not leave the major highways behind, and hit the back roads for serendipitous pleasures?

<h2 style="text-align: left;">
Dulles Metrorail Project Overview</h2>
<br />
The Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority (MWAA) is constructing a 23-mile extension of the existing Metrorail system, which will be operated by the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority from East Falls Church to Washington Dulles International Airport west to Ashburn.<br />
<br />
The extension will provide a direct connection via passenger rail from Dulles International Airport to downtown Washington DC.<br />
<br />
Phase 1 and 2<br />
The project will include 11 new stations. It will be built in two phases. Phase 1 is complete and Phase 2 id scheduled for completion early 2014..<br />
<br />
Phase 2 will run from Wiehle Avenue to Ashburn in eastern Loudoun County. The extension will serve Reston Town Center, Herndon, Dulles Airport, Route 606 and Ashburn. Service to Reston Town Center will be operational in February 2014.<br />
<br />
The purpose of Dulles Metrorail is to provide high-quality, high-capacity transit service in the Dulles Corridor. New Metrorail service in the corridor will result in travel time savings between the corridor and downtown D.C., expand the reach of the existing regional rail system, offer a viable alternative to automobile travel and support future transit-oriented development along the corridor.<br />
<br />
<b>Herndon Station</b><br />
(previously called Herndon-Monroe)<br />
<br />
<b>Location: </b><br />
In the median of the Dulles Airport Access Highway/Dulles Toll Road near Monroe Street<br />
<br />
<b>Type of Station:</b> Ground level<br />
<br />
<b>Station Facilities:</b><br />
Pedestrian bridges and station entrances from both sides of the Dulles Airport Access Highway/Dulles Toll Road<br />

30 bicycle racks on the north side; five lockers on the south side, 46 racks in garage<br />
<br />
<b>Schedule:</b><br />
Trains are anticipated to run every six minutes in the peak period (rush hours) and less frequently in the off-peak.<br />
<br />
<b>What's the Big Deal?</b><br />
Northern Virginia and Dulles Airport Travelers will be able to access downtown Washington DC on one rail line in minutes.<br />

“Mason is delighted to be participating in the sesquicentennial commemorations,” says Stearns, who is also a professor of history. “The chance to focus on the international dimensions of the Civil War opens some important and unexpected opportunities for new interpretations.

The program is the sixth installment in the popular annual Signature Conference series sponsored by the <a href="http://www.virginiacivilwar.org/" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: solid; border-bottom-width: 1px; color: #004276; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none;">Virginia Sesquicentennial of the American Civil War Commission</a>.</div>

The Civil War was an intense regional struggle, but it was also an international event in many ways. Considering it from this standpoint provides a number of unexpected connections between the American crisis and the wider world, while shedding new light on the war itself.<br />
The conference will juxtapose the Civil War with other internal conflicts during the same period — the national unification's in Europe, the struggles over identity in Japan, and rebellions in China and in India. Each case has distinctive features, which comparison helps to highlight, but some common issues provide fresh insights into the American experience.</div>

Historians of international acclaim will discuss the war’s wider impacts in areas ranging from the global cotton trade to international abolition efforts, from changes in the future of military operations to the implications of the Civil War as one of the first wars fought in an industrial age.</div>

The Virginia Sesquicentennial of the American Civil War Commission was created by the General Assembly to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the Civil War in Virginia.

<div style="background-color: white; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 20px;">In 2003 the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum opened a companion facility, the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center, on the property of Washington Dulles International Airport in Chantilly, Virginia. This new museum provides a second location, about half an hour's drive from Washington, DC, to display the space shuttle Discovery, the Lockheed SR-71 and numerous aircraft, spacecraft and other artifacts that the Smithsonian's National Mall location is unable to accommodate. </span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 20px;">The Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center provides dramatic views of an aerobatic airplane hot-dogging upside down, World War II fighters angling for a victory or numerous engines, rockets, satellites, gliders, helicopters, airliners, ultra-lights and experimental flying machines. Watch air traffic leaving from and arriving to Washington Dulles International Airport from the 164-foot Donald D. Engen Observation Tower. The tower displays air traffic control equipment that replicates those used in an operating airport control tower. </span></span><br />

<br />
<span style="color: grey; font-family: lucida grande, tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 16px;">The World Police & Fire Games are coming to Fairfax County in 2015. Yes that's 2015. Planning ahead is necessary for the 30th Anniversary of this international sporting event.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: grey; font-family: lucida grande, tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 16px;">After beating out numerous major destinations to become a finalist, Fairfax County's "Team Fairfax" made their case before the selection committee on July 30th in Vancouver, Canada - the site of this year's Games. Team Fairfax was made up of representatives from Fairfax County's police, fire and sheriff departments, Fairfax County, Visit Fairfax, the Greater Washington Sports Alliance and others including strong support from the Virginia Tourism Corporation and the Commonwealth of Virginia.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: grey; font-family: lucida grande, tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 16px;">"The race among the three finalists was extremely close," says Mike Graham, President of the World Police & Fire Games Federation. "The choice came down to the commitment from the Fairfax bid committee, from the governor down to local business leaders, the world-class facilities that are already in place to host the Games, as well as the passionate dedication to the WPFG of key members of Team Fairfax."</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: grey; font-family: lucida grande, tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 16px;">Since first held in 1985, the World Police & Fire Games have continued to grow in terms of attendance and number of participating countries. Today, these Games are a spectacular 10-day international sporting event providing more than 10,000 active and retired police officers, firefighters, and other public safety servants from around the world the opportunity to showcase their athletic excellence in more than 60 sporting events. The proposed dates for the 2015 Games are June 26 - July 5, 2015.</span></span><br />

<span style="color: grey; font-family: lucida grande, tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 16px;"> "The 2015 Games in Fairfax County promise to deliver a lifetime of memories with celebrations and festivities worthy of the event's 30th anniversary, which happens to coincide with the 75th anniversary of the Fairfax County Police Department," says Bruce Blechl, Executive Director of Team Fairfax, Lieutenant of the Fairfax County Police Department, and five-time WPFG competitor. "To be able to celebrate these anniversaries along with the birthday of America on the 4th of July in the Washington, DC area will be phenomenal."</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: grey; font-family: lucida grande, tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 16px;">The benefits to hosting will be significant to the County. Conservative estimates expect an economic impact of $30 - 35 million. "This is an outstanding opportunity for Fairfax County to showcase our exceptional First Responders and the world-class destination that we are" says Michael Frey, Fairfax County Supervisor for Sully District who represented the County on the bid committee.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: grey; font-family: lucida grande, tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 16px;">Says Visit Fairfax President & CEO Barry Biggar, "Our region is incredibly vibrant, with colorful, lively neighborhoods that offer great cuisine and an active nightlife for those seeking fun and entertainment after a hard day of competition, first-class attractions, exceptional air access and the best of all lodging."</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: grey; font-family: lucida grande, tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 16px;">Fairfax County Virginia looks forward to welcoming the world to Virginia in 2015 for the World Police & Fire Games.</span></span><br />

<br />At the Northern Virginia BrewFest more than 40 breweries will feature their best American style beers. The beer festival highlights the intricacies of each particular beer, how beer is made and how to brew your own. Local restaurants provide foods that compliment beer such as chicken wings, chili, barbeque, and many other summer treats. Entertainment includes live music and children’s activities such as face painting, air-brush tattooing, moon bounces, and rock climbing.<br /><br />The Northern Virginia Summer BrewFest has been held for several years in June at Morven Park in Leesburg.

Fairfax County Civil War Loop</h2>
<br />
Fairfax County's amazing Civil War sites range from the Stone Bridge on the eastern part of Manassas National Battlefield Park to various Civil War Trail markers that detail the stories of our county's heritage.<br />
<br />
In just over an hour you can commemorate the 150th Anniversary of the Civil War by touring some of the lesser known but pivotal sites in Fairfax County that changed United States history.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>The Loop:</b></span><br />
<br />
Begin the Fairfax County Civil War Loop with your free cooked to order breakfast at Embassy Suites Dulles Airport. Then discover the Manassas Battlefield, Bull Run and Centreville. The Civil War Loop then takes you to the tiny Virginia towns of Fairfax and Vienna, VA to discover little known but still pivotal historical sites and events.<br />
<br />
After Vienna, VA you'll come back to your 21st Century two room suite at the Embassy Suites Dulles Airport and enjoy the Complimentary Evening Reception. There, in the comfort of the open atrium, you'll have a chance to relive all you experienced during your Fairfax County Civil War Loop.<br />

<div style="margin:0;font-family:Georgia,Helvetica,Arial,Sans-Serif;line-height:140%;font-size:13px;color:#000000;"><p>I live in Texas, and it is July. That means triple digit temperatures. During the coming months, Texans gladly spend double on their electric bill, avoid getting in a vehicle for fear of melting, and require swimming pools be present at any daytime activities.</p>
<p>Now, if you give a Texan a swimming pool, he’s gonna want some ice cream immediately afterwards. Don’t question this statement; it is a proven scientific fact. I see the shift take place every summer; the level of ice cream consumption in Austin skyrockets. Everywhere you turn kids are wiping tears away with their sticky fingers over a toppled ice cream cone. I get it. I would cry too if I had as little dexterity as they do. Ice cream is a big deal. Just yesterday I traded in my running shoes for a chocolate dipped soft serve at Sandy’s.</p>
<p>Speaking of ice cream, this infographic really spoke to me, recognizing not just one, but two Texas cities in the “Top Ten U.S. Ice Cream Consuming Cities.” The only qualm I have with this infographic is that <a href="http://www.bluebell.com/" target="_blank">Blue Bell Creamery</a> is missing. For those of you out there that haven’t tasted the goodness of Blue Bell homemade ice cream, it’s time to put it on the bucket list.
