      <name>Jazz with Jayni and Chevy Chase at Birdland in NYC</name>
      <short_description></short_description>
      <description>Includes: An evening of Jazz at Birdland in NYC with Jayni and Chevy Chase.  Valid for 4 people for one year, based on availability.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&quot;Birdland, The Jazz Corner of the World&quot; - - Charlie Parker.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Ever since most of Chicago's top musicians moved to New York in the mid-to-late 1920s, New York City has been the Jazz Mecca. Nearly every major jazz style of the past seventy years has been initiated in the Big Apple.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

It was Charlie Parker, familiarly known to his fans and fellow musicians as &quot;Bird,&quot; a contraction of Yardbird, his formal nickname, who was the dynamic creative personality and genius of the alto saxophone who served as the inspiration for Birdland.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

When the original Birdland opened fifty-one years ago in December, 1949, Charlie Parker was the headliner and the club was located on Broadway, a few blocks west of 52nd Street, which was a hotbed of jazz in the 1930s and 40s. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;We know that you and your guests will LOVE an evening of mind-blowing jazz with Jayni and Chevy Chase at this historic Jazz mecca.  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&quot;Birdland, The Jazz Corner of the World&quot; - - Charlie Parker.</description>

      <name>CoolGlobes 'Commercial Solar' by Carlos E. Jimenez</name>
      <short_description>From June-September 2007, the City of Chicago is hosting &#8220;CoolGlobes: Hot Ideas for a Cooler Planet,&#8221; an innovative project that uses the medium of public art to inspire individuals and organizations to take action against global warming.

      <description>From June-September 2007, the City of Chicago is hosting 'CoolGlobes: Hot Ideas for a Cooler Planet,' an innovative project that uses the medium of public art to inspire individuals and organizations to take action against global warming.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
The exhibit features over 100 sculpted globes, each five feet in diameter, displayed along Chicago's lakefront from The Field Museum north and at Navy Pier.  Artists from around the world designed the globes using a variety of materials to transform their plain white sphere to create awareness and provoke discussion about potential solutions to global warming.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Inspired by his own concern about global warming, Carlos Jimenez designed his three-dimensional globe to reflect the earth's strong connection to the sun. With a large infinity symbol linking the two, Jimenez conveys the simplicity of harnessing the sun's infinite power for Earth's needs. The globe is further adorned with gold material that hints at the proliferation of solar panels around the world.

      <name>Howard Stern Fans: Spend a day in the studio with Howard, Robin and the gang.</name>
      <short_description></short_description>
      <description>Here's an opportunity to sit in on the Howard Stern Show and watch Howard and Robin and the gang do their show live--you'll also get a full tour of the studio and offices by Gary &quot;Baba Booey&quot; Dell' Abate!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
The self-proclaimed &quot;King of All Media&quot; (a humorous reference to Michael Jackson's appellation &quot;The King of Pop&quot;) has been dubbed a shock jock for his highly controversial use of scatological, sexual and racial humor. Stern has said that the show was never about shocking people, but primarily intended to offer his honest opinions on a gamut of issues (ranging from world affairs to problems among his own staff). Though controversial, he is the highest-paid radio personality in the United States and the most fined personality in radio broadcast history.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Howard Stern is best known for his national radio show, which for many years was syndicated on FM radio stations (and a few AM stations) throughout the United States until his last terrestrial radio broadcast on December 16, 2005. He began broadcasting on the subscription-based Sirius satellite radio service on January 9, 2006.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

In addition to radio, Stern moved into publishing, television, feature films, and music. He has written two books, Private Parts, which he adapted into a film, and Miss America. Stern's television endeavors include a variety show on New York City's WWOR-TV, a nightly E! show documenting his radio broadcasts, a similar CBS program that competed with Saturday Night Live for a time, &quot;Howard On-Demand&quot; for digital cable subscribers in various markets, and Son of the Beach, a parody of Baywatch for FX which Stern executive produced.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

In 2006, Howard Stern was elected into Time Magazine's &quot;Time 100: The People who shape our world&quot;[1] and was ranked #7 in Forbes Magazine's 2006 annual Celebrity 100.[2] On February 13, 2007, Stern became engaged to his long-time girlfriend, model Beth Ostrosky.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
The winner of this incredible experience will be able to sit in during a taping of the show and observe all the action.  A meet and greet with the entire crew is included in this package unless there is a last minute interruption which would prevent the introductions.  Gary Dell'Abate, Howard's long time producer will serve as the host for this experience and tour the winner around the studio.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;For Howard Stern fans, life does not get any better! </description>
