It was a fishing village in ancient times, and a post station was set up in the Han Dynasty. Because it was near the Yangtze River, it was a place for water transportation and trade in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. There are many cultural relics and historic sites in Lizhuang ancient town, with a large scale of ancient buildings and a rigorous layout, which fully reflects the characteristics of the folk houses, temples, palaces and other buildings in southern Sichuan during the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

The wood carvings and stone carvings in ancient buildings are exquisite and lifelike, and have high artistic appreciation value. There are Zhouzhuang in Kunshan of Jiangsu Province in the East and Lizhuang in Yibin of Sichuan Province in the west. Zhouzhuang is characterized by "spring rain apricot blossoms in the south of the Yangtze River, small bridges in the water countryside". Lizhuang's characteristic is that it has made great achievements in inheriting culture, and its craftsmanship is absolutely amazing.
Historical culture
Three thousand years ago, Li Zhuang was a place where people lived together. According to the records, during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Lizhuang was the inhabitant of ancient Bo people. It is said that it was the inhabitant of brother Li who lived fishing in the Yangtze River and was named after "Lizhuang", "Lijiacun" and "Lizhuangba". From the sixth year of Datong in Liang Dynasty (540 AD), Nanguang County and Liutong County were set up in Lizhuang. In the Sui Dynasty, because of avoiding the name of Yang Guang, Emperor Yangdi of the Sui Dynasty, Nanguang County was changed to Nanxi County. In the middle of Tang Dynasty, Rongzhou (now Yibin City) government moved to Lizhuang twice. In the early Northern Song Dynasty, Nanxi County Zhicai moved from Lizhuang to Xianyuan Dam, where Nanxi County is located today. Since the Ming Dynasty, Lizhuang Town has become an important wharf and material distribution center in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River. Daoguang has been the largest town in Nanxi County since the Qing Dynasty.
In 1992, it was named "a famous historical and cultural town in Sichuan Province", and in 1995 it was listed as a pilot town for the construction of small towns at the national and provincial levels. The town has temples, palaces, terraces, ancient theatre buildings, ancient streets and ancient folk houses that reflect the architectural characteristics of the Ming and Qing Dynasties; Huiguang Temple, Jade Buddha Temple, Nanhua Palace, Wenchang Palace, Dongyue Temple and other "Nine Palaces and Eighteen Temples" with high ancient cultural appreciation value;
There is a "Rotary Hall" which is called "excellent beam-column structure and quite proud of the current works" by the architect Mr. Liang Sicheng, together with "Kuixing Pavilion", "Hundred Crane Window" and "Jiulong Monument" can be regarded as the four wonders of ancient town. There are many cultural relics and historic sites in Lizhuang, and there are many cultural landscapes. The well-preserved monuments are Huiguang Temple, Dongyue Temple and Rotary Hall in the Ming Dynasty, Yuwang Palace, Dongjan Temple, Nanhua Palace, Heaven Palace, Ancestral Palace, Wenchang Palace, Huiguang Temple, Zhangjia Temple, Luojia Temple, Four Family Court and Xiaojiayuan Residence in the Qing Dynasty. The large scale and rigorous layout of the ancient buildings embody the architectural characteristics of temples and palaces in southern Sichuan during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Wood carvings and stone carvings have fine workmanship, vivid images and high artistic appreciation value.
Lizhuang was also one of the cultural centers in the rear area during the Anti-Japanese War. In 1939, since the 16-character message "Welcome to Tongda Qianchuan and Lizhuang, All Needs and Local Supply", more than ten institutions of higher learning and scientific research institutes, such as Tongji University, Jinling University, Central Academy of Sciences, China Construction Society and so on, relocated to Lizhuang during the Anti-Japanese War, with well-known experts and institutes nationwide. Scholars such as Li Ji, Fu Sinian, Tao Menghe, Wu Dingliang, Liang Sicheng, Lin Huiyin, Tong Dizhou, Liang Siyong, and Laogan have gathered in Lizhuang for six years. Liang Sicheng's "History of Chinese Architecture" was born in Lizhuang. Li Zhuang became famous as the cultural center of the Anti-Japanese War. It was not until 1947, after the victory of the War of Resistance, that they moved back to their original places. This has had a far-reaching impact on Li Zhuang's society, economy and culture. It is no exaggeration to say that Lizhuang is a place of national spirit, a refraction point of traditional culture, a place of Zhouzhuang in the East and a place of Lizhuang in the west.
You can visit the ancient town of Lizhuang, taste the white meat of Lizhuang, burn the grass dragon of Lizhuang, enjoy the sunset of Sanjiang River, watch the traditional dragon boat, Yangko, waist drum, Niu Erdeng, Sichuan Opera folk performances, and find the four wonders of the ancient town: Quexing Dou, Rotary Ancient Hall, White Crane Qi Window, Jiulong Stone Monument, which makes people linger.

Television stations and others have come here to shoot the documentary "The First Town of the Yangtze River in Wanli".
Zhangjiaci
The Zhangjia Temple in the west of Lizhuang Town covers an area of nearly 4000 square meters. It was a large house purchased by Zhang clan, headed by Zhang Shide, in the nineteenth year of Qing Daoguang (1840 A.D.), with 660 silver coins, to express the love and respect for ancestors of Zhang clan's descendants and to serve as a special place for retrieving the fundamental ancestral temple.
The main body of this ancestral temple is a QUADRANGLE-STYLE wooden structure building, with the upper hall as the main temple and the lower hall as the hall. The 50 windows and doors in the hall are unique. Each one is carved with high-quality Nanmu Seiko 2 cranes, 50 windows a total of 100 cranes, different shapes, lifelike, surrounded by flowing clouds, so-called "Baihe Xiangyun" window. According to Li Zhuang's "Zhang's genealogy", each window in this ancestral hall of Zhang's family costs 14 or 2 stripes of silver, which is equivalent to the monthly salary of a genuine official in the Qing Dynasty. Mr. Liang Sicheng praised such exquisite architectural art during his inspection. He once called the Baihe Window, Wenchang Palace, Kuixing Pavilion and Jiulong Monument of Yuwang Temple as "Four Great Steles of Lizhuang".
It is worth mentioning that during the War of Resistance Against Japan, thousands of boxes of precious cultural relics from the Palace Museum had been transported to Lizhuang through arduous transportation and stored in Zhangjia Temple for five or six years. During this period, more than ten state-level institutions of higher learning and research, such as the Academy of Central Studies, the Central Museum, the Society of Chinese Architecture, Jinling University and Tongji University, moved to Lizhuang one after another, bringing together well-known experts and scholars, making it one of the cultural centers in the rear of the Anti-Japanese War. Mr. Liang Sicheng, a member of the Chinese Society of Architecture, wrote his masterpiece "History of Chinese Architecture" in Lizhuang, and many exhibitions of cultural relics including the skull fossils of "Peking Man" were held in Zhangjiaci Temple.
Yu Palace
Huiguang Temple, now known as Huiguang Temple, was built in the 11 years of Qingdaoguang (1831), sitting in the South and north, consisting of two courtyards at a time. The main courtyard has mountain gates, theatre buildings, main halls, rear halls, Kuixing Pavilion and chamber buildings. The mountain gates and theatre buildings are all hilltop with double eaves, and the whole building has a grand momentum. On the Dashan Gate, the plaque praising Dayu's control of water and the couplets of stone carvings on both sides were written and written by Zhang Songjing, a former Qing Dynasty native of Lizhuang. The stage in the temple is one of the most complete ancient stage preserved in Sichuan. There are reliefs of ancient drama stories with single hook fence on the stage base. In May 1942, the 35th anniversary of National Tongji University was held here. Tongji University and Jiang'an National Opera Specialist jointly performed Cao Yu's masterpieces Thunderstorm and Sunrise. Yuwang Palace is the largest existing Qing Dynasty building in Lizhuang, where the Kowloon Stone Stele is well known.
Kowloon Stele
Jiulong Stone Tablet is located in Huiguang Temple. It is 2.7 meters high and 1.3 meters wide. There are nine divine dragons carved in the sea of clouds. Except one in the middle, the other eight are symmetrically distributed on the left and right sides. Each dragon can distinguish its head, body and tail carefully. There is also a jewel in the mouth of the dragon that can rotate without pulling out. Meaning is the uniform of Dayu and the dragon of the river, dredging the people from all over the world, nine rivers to the sea, there has been no flooding disaster under the world, for the benefit of all the people, and the second theory has the meaning of the unification of the rivers and mountains in Jiuzhou.
Dongyue Temple
Another famous ancient building in the ancient town of Lizhuang was once the seat of the Engineering Department of Tongji University.
Kuixin Pavilion
Kuixing Pavilion is located in the protruding part of the Yangtze River at the end of Lizhuang Town. It was built in the early period of Guangxu in Qing Dynasty. It is a three-storey building with all-wood structure. Quixing Pavilion is situated on the riverside, and can be seen from 10 miles away, so it has the function of navigation. Kuixing Pavilion was praised by Liang Sicheng as "the best pavilion built by the Yangtze River from Shanghai to Yibin more than 2,000 kilometers".
Rotary Hall
The Rotary Screw Hall is located on Shiniu Mountain 2.5 kilometers north of Lizhuang Town. The palace was built in the Ming Dynasty in 1596. It is 25 meters high and octagonal in shape. Its depth and width are 8 meters. It has three eaves outside, two solid layers inside, and eight vertical ridges with green tiles. There are vertical animals and animals on each vertical ridge. The roof slope is gentle, the warping of Baoding roof and eight wing angles are not very high, the proportion is symmetrical, the lines are soft, the style is unique, and the shape is exquisite. Inner structure design is ingenious and ingeniously supported by mechanical principles. Its main features are as follows: the girder frame is supported by lifting girder, which is abnormally washed and superimposed by climbing girders layer by layer. The three eaves have three styles, but in the same eaves, the format is slightly different from the official structures of Song and Qing dynasties. The algae wells on the top of the girders are all made into mesh-like patterns on eight sides and turn right to the top like screw. It's very spacious and beautiful. It can't find a nail on the upper and lower floors, but it's very strong.
When Liang Sicheng was in Lizhuang, he praised the folk architecture of Lizhuang, saying that there were "four wonders of Lizhuang". First, Kuixing Pavilion is the best pavilion built by the Yangtze River from Shanghai to Yibin more than 2,000 kilometers; (second) Jiulong Stone Stele in Yuwang Palace, like the "pearl" on the "precious crown" of the Imperial Palace Taihe Palace; (third) Baihe Xiangyun Window in Zhangjia Temple, carved with the whole Nanmu block. Cheng, surrounded by hollow auspicious clouds, there are two cranes, each window on the shape of different, beautiful shape; (4) Rotary Hall, in Shiniu Mountain, Zhennan, is a magnificent building in the Ming Dynasty during the Wanli Dynasty, characterized by the use of a nail, is a tenon and dovetail arch wood structure. Liang Sicheng has visited many times and praised it for its excellent beam-column structure, which is quite proud of the current works. He also applied the mechanics principle created by the skillful craftsmen to the design of the top of the United Nations Conference Building in 1945 for reference, inheritance and creativity, and took it as an example of the ancient architecture he wrote in Li Zhuang's History of Chinese Architecture. This is the inheritance and innovation of the cultural heritage of Lizhuang folk architecture. Innovation is nourished by heritage, which lengthens the glory of life. In the new era, they have won a win-win situation and created new vitality.
Ancestor Hall
Zushi Palace, also known as Zhenwu Palace, was built in 1833 by folk gangs, covering 4349 square meters. It is a courtyard building with front and rear courtyards. The rear hall is independent of the backyard. In the 31st year of Guangxu (1905), the Dashanmen and theatre buildings were demolished and rebuilt for the establishment of Lizhuang Town Central National School in Nanxi County. Zushidian was the seat of Tongji Medical College. Entering the deep alley, I suddenly saw a tall door, next to an old elm tree, green leaves whirling. In there are four or five table-tennis table-sized stone tables, which are situated in the weeds. This is where Tongji teachers and students dissected the corpse. Once a fellow villager climbed up to the ancestor's palace and saw the corpse below. He was frightened and rolled down. Then rumors of cannibalism spread among teachers and students in Tongji. In order to quell the rumors, Fu Sinian decided to hold a popular science exhibition. At that time, the whole Academy of Central Research and the Central Museum moved over, so numerous exhibitions were finally held. The exhibition was a sensation, and celebrities of all sizes in Chongqing came to visit it. Think about what it would be like to show everything in the Palace Museum of Taiwan one day.
Lifeng Villa
Liang Sicheng also described Lifeng Mountain Villa (Chestnut Depression), about 5 kilometers southwest of Lizhuang Town, as a classic works of folk houses in southern Sichuan. This villa is now in decline; if it can be restored and renovated in scale, momentum and cultural connotation, it will be no less than the Anxi Jia Villa of Yibin River, which has been listed as the national key cultural relics protection unit. That was where the popular science exhibition was held. The Villa is very beautiful, with relief stone carvings and tiles with exquisite workmanship. The painted unicorns, bats, magpies and other implied happiness and longevity are also valuable aesthetic cultures in folklore.
Ancient streets and lanes
As a famous historical and cultural town, 18 ancient streets and alleys in Ming and Qing Dynasties are completely preserved up to now. These streets and lanes are paved with strip or square stone slabs, usually with one meter wide stone steps on both sides. The names of streets and lanes are usually named according to their location, characteristics or activities of businessmen. Such as Yangjie, the ancient market for cattle and sheep. Mat Lane is a lane that used to be named for processing and selling grass mats in front and back shops. It was built in the early Qing Dynasty and is 60 meters long and 2.5 meters wide. Both sides are two-storey dwellings with wooden structure and green tile roof. On weekdays, mattress alley is very quiet and leisurely, only three or two women, old people and children sit on the stone steps and play quietly. Mat Lane is the representative of ancient streets and alleys in Lizhuang.
Courtyard Dwellings
Looking from a high place, the house in Lizhuang is almost all green bricks and grey tiles, and the courtyards, large and small, are connected by streets and alleys. Small courtyards cover about 150 to 200 square meters; large courtyards range from hundreds to thousands of square meters. The courtyard in the courtyard can be said to be an important part of the courtyard in Lizhuang. The courtyard is paved with strip-shaped bluestone slabs and a good drainage system. Its main functions are lighting, leisure and washing clothes. Some also have beds for planting flowers and plants.
Old wine cellar
In addition to the old streets and courtyards, there are still several old wineries and cellars in Xiaolizhuang ancient town. Yibin has a long history of liquor-making. Wuliangye, a famous Chinese liquor at home and abroad, is produced here. The liquor-making industry is very popular and prosperous here. Although these old wineries have gone through hundreds of years of vicissitudes, they still retain the original appearance of the mellow traditional brewing technology.
The Lizhuang Old Winery was run by Zhou Zhenghong, the director of the factory, for generations. The brewers in the factory are all from Lizhuang Town. Although most of them are strong men in their thirties, they have been engaged in wine making for 120 years. They work in cellars every day, making sorghum liquor in obscurity, and selling it locally. They do not compete with Yibin's famous "Wuliangye" liquor. Of course, they also have their own fun every day. After working, they can enjoy a couple of sorghum wine made by themselves.
Tourist mood
To visit Lizhuang Ancient Town, like other scenic spots and historic sites, the scenery in spring, summer, autumn and winter has its own charm. Only when you are there can you enjoy the picturesque beauty of the landscape. So before departure, we should have some knowledge about the general situation of Lizhuang ancient town scenic spots. If we follow the tour group, the tour guide will explain the human geography of Lizhuang ancient town to tourists; if we are self-help tour, we must refer to the recommendation of Lizhuang ancient town to visit scenic spots. Finally, cameras are indispensable to travel with relatives and friends. Photographs are used to record the happy mood during the journey of Lizhuang ancient town.
folk custom
Lizhuang's folk custom has always been simple and plain, attaches great importance to farming and reading, is enthusiastic about public welfare, cherishes the world, patriotism and patriotism. Nanxi County Chronicle records: "Zhang Yao has a way of governing his family, Zi Nephew Hui can read it, and Fu can read it and go to farm it. Homeless jockey, sleeveless swimmer... All roads collapse and bridges collapse. Lizhuangyuan and Nanxi have always been hospitable in folk customs and customs, just like "Hainabaichuan, tolerance is great". During the Anti-Japanese War, Lizhuang was one of the four major cultural centers in China, juxtaposed with Chongqing, Kunming and Chengdu, and became an academic center with international influence in China at that time. At that time, Li Zhuang's "Nine Palaces and Eighteen Temple" moved to the first-class academic institutions in China, such as the Institute of History and Language, the Institute of Social Sciences, the Institute of Liberal Arts of Peking University and Tongji University, where a large number of first-class scholars with international influence, such as Fu Sinian, Liang Sicheng and Tong Dizhou, devoted themselves to scientific research and talent cultivation. At that time, Li Zhuang accepted these important institutions and famous scholars, which was to inherit and develop this folk custom.
There is a couplet at the gate of Lifeng Mountain Villa, referring to the folk custom of Lizhuang "two inscriptions of ancestral customs". "Two Mings" is Zhang Zai's "East Ming" and "West Ming" in the Song Dynasty. Zhang Zai has a famous saying: "For heaven and earth, for the people, for the saints of the past to continue to learn, for all ages to open peace." In 2005, when Kuomintang Chairman Lien Chan came to the mainland, he quoted Zhang Zai's phrase "peace for all ages". At that time, Li Zhuang accepted cultural people, not only for the sake of the past, but also for the development of academia, for the purpose of the world and the world. In the new era, the essence of Taoism in the Song Dynasty has been inherited and developed and given new significance.
After the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japan, in May 1946, dozens of experts, such as Fu Sinian of the Institute of History and Language, signed and engraved the Inscription of Farewell to the Lifeng Peak, standing on the right side of the entrance of the mountain archway. Nei said, "Five years from now... Fortunately, there is no waste of research. Although the country is generous, there are unforgettable people who make their guests come home and live in ease and contentment, and who are the masters of Sri Lanka, the military and political leaders and the local intellectuals with the help of these people. 57 Once again, he expressed his praise for Li Zhuang's hospitality and good folk customs. Lizhuang folk culture, there are many rich contents, such as: reflecting the ancient town of southern Sichuan residential building customs of the representative "mat lane", is the narrow lane of the bluestone pavement, residential mostly wooden tenon through the structure of two-story small green tile houses, winter
Warm summer, cool, scattered and harmonious. Outside each door, there are two waist-high low doors, called "waist doors", which have a unique charm. Folk customs also include burning grass dragons, rowing flowers, cattle lanterns, and old teahouses.
In folk diet, there are "garlic paste white meat" with unique ingredients, fire, knife and seasoning, which is long, thin and transparent. Because of its long, it was once called "foot-wrapped meat" and changed its name because of its indecent features. At that time, experts, teachers and students liked it. Foreign teachers often come, because their language is not fluent, and often "butt" signaled the famous dish made of pig leg meat. This is an interesting story in folk culture.
Lizhuang is a town with strong ancient charm. The folk activities here also have some special interests, such as grass dragon dance, dragon lantern setting, flower boating, performing "Niu Er Deng" and Sichuan Opera solfeggio, etc. They are all popular cultural activities of villagers during the New Year, especially "grass dragon dance", which is very popular and has become the most original folk activities of Lizhuang.
Dragon dancing is widely spread in China with a long and colorful history. Generally, the dragon team is composed of masculine men, running back and forth and dancing the leading body. But in the ancient town of Lizhuang, the most active is a women's dragon dance team. On New Year's Day or celebrations, this dragon dance team composed of big girls and little daughters-in-law will show off. They danced the straw dragon made of golden straw, only with the clang gongs and drums, a "golden long dragon" rolled up and down in the air, leaping around, the women's free and skillful movements, not only not inferior to eyebrows, but also in the vigor of women's charm. Their dragon dancing often dazzles the audience, so they can't help applauding and clapping their hands.
When did the grass dragon dance in Lizhuang originate? Legend has it that this is a custom handed down from the Tang Dynasty. At first, the "golden dragon" was made of golden cloth to show reverence for the emperor. Later, because of the drought, the people in order to save the field grass seedlings, they danced dragon for rain, and then burned the dragon after dancing. It would be a pity to burn all the colorful cloth dragons carefully tied, so the villagers adapted to tie straw dragons and burn them. The purpose was to remind the King of Jinghe Dragon who was in charge of rainfall not to forget his duty and to precipitate quickly so as to relieve the misfortune of all the people. Over time, the custom of grass dragon dance has been formed in the area of Lizhuang, and has been handed down from generation to generation. Nowadays, the grass dragon dance has been endowed with new ideas, and has become the best form of expressing the joyful atmosphere of Li Zhuang people. Don't underestimate these insignificant grass-rooted dragons. They have danced out the temperament and reputation of Li Zhuang people.
Anti Japanese culture
During the Anti-Japanese War, the state Tongji University and other institutions in Shanghai had been relocated five times and were still threatened by Japanese bombing. They needed to be relocated to the south of Sichuan for the sixth time.
At that time, evacuated people had been accepted in some places, and they were overcrowded. Many places are overwhelmed by their own concerns. They are also concerned that the foreign population will increase the burden of their supply and living needs, which will lead to rising prices and affect their own interests. In this case, Li Zhuang resolutely sent a message and warmly invited each other. "With Daqianchuan, Li Zhuang welcomes it." All needs, local supply." These 16 words are loud and powerful. How broad-minded and magnificent are these 3,000-person riverside towns to accept more than 10,000 cultural people from other provinces?
At that time, the Japanese invaders set off a beacon of aggression everywhere, occupied Chinese territory, massacred my compatriots, destroyed my culture, and could not accommodate a scholar's desk. Chinese sons and daughters not only fight against the aggressors in the front line, but also against the cultural aggression of the Japanese aggressors'subjugation of our Chinese spiritual tradition. They insist on cultural research and education for future generations, so that the national culture can be passed on and preserved and developed.
The scholars accepted by Li Zhuang, under the difficult and bitter living conditions, are vigorous and persistent in fighting for the protection and development of Chinese culture. Scholars are fighters too. They need battle positions. Li Zhuang provided them with valuable trenches, proving that no matter how vicious the Japanese aggressors were, they could not destroy the lifeblood of Chinese culture and extinguish the sparks of the continuing inheritance of Chinese culture. Lizhuang is such a sacred place with great fighting significance.
The results of the battle in this holy land are brilliant. Under the conditions of rough tea and plain food, scholars have written many important academic works. There was a couplet hanging on the door of Liang Sicheng's former residence where he fought that year: "The national calamity will not be abandoned, six years of hard work will become a giant system; the room is crude and contains talent, a century of good news is a master." At that time, Li Zhuang had no electricity, no roads, lack of medical treatment and little medicine, Lin Hui was seriously ill, poor and sick, sold clothes and ate up all the time. Fu Sinian also made an exception to write letters to his superiors to apply for relief. Under the oil lamp in the shanty room, Liang Si
Adults and couples are still "working together to complete a number of important works such as Image of Chinese Architectural History" (English version) and become academic classics in this field in the future"(see Liang Congjie, son of Liang Sicheng's, recalled articles in January 2001).
At that time, Joseph Needham, a famous British scholar, went to Lizhuang to see Tong Dizhou and other scholars in difficult and crude conditions, using goldfish as biological experiments and insisting on scientific research, and said in surprise, "This is an incredible miracle." Scholars, like goldfish trapped in the desert, can still roam freely in the spiritual sea they have created.
In World War II, some people found flowers in the waste shells of bombs on the table in the trenches of anti-fascist warfare. They were moved to say that the army with such a state of mind would surely win and be indestructible.
What Li Zhuang offers is not the vase, but the position where scholars insist on cultural battle. Encouraged and supported by the spirit of Li Zhuang's folk custom, the fighting spirit of scholars can still inspire us to inherit and carry forward the spirit of this cultural tradition.
At that time, Lizhuang's cultural men were not just buried in academia and did not come out of the world. They insist on scientific research and teaching, but also fight. They are mindful of the world and concerned about the overall situation. When needed at the front line, there were 364 young students from Tongji University, including Yang Baolin, a young professor who had just returned from Germany. They took a collective oath at the Yu Palace, which was then the headquarters of the school, and set out generously. Yuwang Palace (Huiguang Temple) also has the wooden board "Patriotic Rong School Education Base of Tongji University, Lizhuang, Sichuan" set up in 2001, which has become the spiritual pillar to inspire future generations. Yuwang Palace, Yueyue Tian and other tourist attractions in Lizhuang today have such profound cultural connotations that we can connect with the spirit of the new era and expand and deepen the inheritance and development of folk customs in Lizhuang.
At that time, Li Zhuang was open-minded, accepted and supported the cultural people, and promoted himself, making Li Zhuang a cultural center in the whole country, raising its popularity and academic status. At that time, domestic and foreign mail came in a flood, and the envelope could be sent accurately as long as it was written "Lizhuang, China". At that time, Li Zhuang people from kindergartens, primary schools, junior high schools, high schools, universities, until the completion of graduate studies, can not leave Li Zhuang. This has become the most brilliant page in the history of Li Zhuang's education. These will inevitably affect the inheritance and development of Li Zhuang's folk customs.
Li Zhuang didn't have electricity, just lit oil lamps. Tongji University Institute of Technology has also used direct current motor to generate electricity, supply lighting and machine rice for the whole town. Through scientific tests, Tongda Medical College found that barium chloride in salt resulted in poisoning, which eradicated the prevalent leprosy foot plague (soft disease), and enriched folk scientific knowledge. Medical College has human anatomy course, Li Zhuang once mistakenly said "to eat the dead". Later, Li Zhuangren saw the popular science exhibition and saw the skeleton of ancient human beings, fossils of animals and plants, clothing, armour and weapons of successive dynasties, with relevant knowledge; his folklore and folklore infused into the understanding of the new era. Today, if Li Zhuang wants to inherit and develop the spirit of accepting and supporting cultural people during the Anti-Japanese War, he should carry forward the spirit of "accepting all rivers in Hainan". He welcomes visitors from all over the world, supports and accepts all kinds of advanced cultures in tourism, and jointly promotes human civilization.
There are many ancient towns in the whole country, but Li Zhuang, which combines the diversification of ancient towns with the anti-Japanese war culture, is unique. The people of Lizhuang treasure this unique and precious resource very much. They also value the brand of "China Lizhuang", which has a very high gold content. In the new century, the people of Lizhuang have reason and confidence to build and develop their hometown well and make it a tourist destination worthy of the lofty title of "Lizhuang of China".
To commemorate the friendship between Tongji and Lizhuang. In 2006, Tongji University and Yibin City established the "Tongji Memorial Square in Lizhuang" and erected a monument.
The most representative characteristic delicacies in Lizhuang ancient town are "one flower, two yellow and three white".
"One flower" means peanut. Lizhuang peanut is made from local peanut, which is soaked in salt and white in appearance. It is processed by more than 10 processes using traditional Chinese medicine and spices, and has been exported to Hong Kong, Macao and Southeast Asia for its fragrance, crispness, crispness and salt taste.
Lizhuang's yellow Pelteobagrus is the best food of Yangtze River fish. It has delicate meat, rich nutrition and delicious taste. Its length is 10 centimeters. It's the best dish of red-roast and hot pot. If you make soup with bamboo sun, it's called "Erhuang soup", which is the best in soup. The yellow rice in Lizhuang is mixed with red pond, lard, local sticky rice and glutinous rice, and steamed with ginger leaves. It has golden color, strong aroma, sweet and waxy soft, appetizing and refreshing taste. The unique ingredient is the choice of Alpinia officinalis leaves, which has a strong aromatic oil flavor. After cooling, it can be sliced and fried. It has a special flavor and is one of Yibin's famous snacks.
"Three white" refers to white meat, liquor and sugar refined white cake. The meat of Li Zhuang is mainly made up of pigs growing for 8-10 months. The "three knives" of about 3 kilograms on the hind legs are chosen as the main materials, namely the essence of selecting materials. The temperature of cooked white meat is about 90 degrees Celsius. Bamboo sticks are used to stab the meat from time to time in order to heat the meat evenly inside and outside. After boiling, put the meat in the cool boiling water to keep the water and prepare the meat for the knife cutter. The knife worker is actually the highlight of Li Zhuang's white meat. A good knife worker can grow 2 kilograms of pork slices by 20 centimeters, 15 centimeters wide and more than 50 slices 1-2 millimeters thick, which can be called a perfect one. Next is the ingredients, Lizhuang white meat seasoning must be decocted with garlic and pepper into paste, garlic mud and pepper, plus good soy sauce, sugar and other condiments, with a fresh spicy, spicy, coordinated flavors, to add a point is thick, minus a point is light. White meat has become a business card of Lizhuang, known as "to eat white meat in Lizhuang. It's equal to not coming to Lizhuang.

Folk legend has it that the white meat of Lizhuang evolved from King Wu of Zhou's military expedition, in which the demon fox Su Dai, who had been cut off from his head, was dipped in garlic mud to eat. Because its meat slices are thin and long, and it is wrapped in a chopstick and eaten, it is called "foot-wrapped meat". During the War of Resistance Against Japan, the owner of "Liufen" restaurant accepted the suggestion of Tao Meng, a cultural man who moved to Lizhuang, Cuiping District, and renamed the "foot-wrapped meat" as "Lizhuang knife worker's garlic mud white meat".
Today, with the vigorous development of tourism in Lizhuang, Lizhuang's famous dish "Lizhuang White Meat" has become a famous gold-lettered signboard for snacks in Lizhuang. He Weidong, Li Zhuangren's family, known as "He Sanbai Meat", earnestly studied white meat knife technology, seasoning technology and cooking temperature 13 years ago, and won the title of "Li Zhuangbai Meat First Knife" among many white meat masters. There are many tourists who come to enjoy white meat because of their admiration for fame. The first knife is more than 1,000 kilograms of white meat a year. Every year, during the peak season of tourism, 50 to 100 kilograms of white meat are sold every day. According to the first knife, he received four apprentices. He hoped to receive more apprentices and bring the delicacy of "Li Zhuang knife worker's garlic mud and white meat" and the traditional craft to more and more places.

Q: Bundling records in MySQL SELECT query, stored as timestamps Not sure how to ask this, but let me give you my problem:
I have a table with 50 000 records, in one column (named recorded_at) a timestamp. Now what I would like to have a SQL SELECT query (processed with PHP) that results in an array with the total per days. So the result would look like:
$array["2012-01-01"] = 4;
$array["2012-01-02"] = 14;
$array["2012-01-03"] = 45;
$array["2012-01-04"] = 33;

And so on...
I could of course loop through 365 days a year and SELECT 365 times, but that seems very inefficient. Any idea how to do this?

A: Try this:
SELECT DATE(FROM_UNIXTIME(recorded_at)), COUNT(*) totalCOunt
FROM tableName
GROUP BY DATE(FROM_UNIXTIME(recorded_at))

A Woman went to the Post Office to buy stamps for her Christmas cards.

There were two goobers who went deep into the woods searching for a Christmas tree.
A kindly 90-year-old grandmother found buying presents for family and friends a bit much one Christmas, so she wrote out checks for all of them to put in their Christmas cards.

So I got in the minivan and went to the relative's house. While at their house, my son started misbehaving, so I said in the most bass voice I could muster.
Sarah and her thirteen-year-old sister had been fighting a lot this year. (This happens when you combine a headstrong two-year-old, who is sure she is always right, with a young adolescent.) Sarah's parents, trying to take advantage of her newfound interest in Santa Claus, reminded the two-year-old that Santa was watching and doesn't like it when children fight. This had little impact.
"I'll just have to tell Santa about your misbehavior," the mother said as she picked up the phone and dialed. Sarah's eyes grew big as her mother asked "Mrs. Claus" (really Sarah's aunt; Santa's real line was busy) if she could put Santa on the line. Sarah's mouth dropped open as Mom described to Santa (Sarah's uncle) how the two-year-old was acting. But, when Mom said that Santa wanted to talk to her, she reluctantly took the phone.

For most women, a wedding day is the most expected and desired event in their lives. That is why they usually get ready for it rather seriously.
Brides would like to have a perfect wedding dress, despite the fact that they are going to wear it only once. Besides, every woman has her idea as for the ideal wedding gown.
Some years ago, to make a luxurious wedding dress, designers needed to use a great amount of fabric. Accordingly, the longer the train was a more luxurious look its owner had.
Nowadays, the approach of modern wedding dress makers has changed a lot. Brides are free to choose the length, shape and even color of their future wedding gown. Of course, most girls prefer a conservative white. Since a wedding is a symbolic celebration, many brides tend to follow all the traditions.

Choose the perfect option for yourself, and wedding dress makers will help you look gorgeous.
The best wedding dress makers can create real masterpieces that make every bride look really elegant and bright. If you hear about wedding dresses from designers, the first thing that may come to your mind is that they are rather expensive and unattainable for ordinary people. However, that is not always true. There are simple ways to acquire a trendy dress. Moreover, wedding dresses from famous designers are worth buying and deserve the highest attention. Dressmakers can offer you a really stylish outfit, meeting the most refined tastes and the latest modern trends.
What Do Wedding Dress Makers Actually Do?
Putting a dress together from something that is just sketched on the paper to something real is a very exciting process. An experienced and creative wedding dress maker will design a dress that suits the type of figure and personality of every bride he/she works with. A future bride comes to the maker if she wants to have something different from the traditional styles, available on the market.
The first thing that a dressmaker does is sketching the design, depending on the client's request. Then you need to select the material for the future dress.
There is an incredible variety of materials to use. All of them feature different characteristics and open new possibilities. A wedding dress maker can work with any fabric you choose so that you could feel comfortable on your special day.
Though, the word 'comfortable' is not the most exciting word that you would like to hear. Because brides are usually ready for some sort of sacrifice; and they, say that beauty knows no pain. However, it is a huge concern when you are wearing a wedding dress for eight, nine, or ten hours. You should keep in mind that a wedding dress maker can make your gown rather light and at the same time extraordinary.
The next steps will include making the pattern, cutting the fabric, and lace. So after that, it is time for a rather crucial moment – sewing everything together. Of course, finishing details will complement the overall look of a wedding dress.
It is possible to interpret the extremely beautiful fabrics into dresses that brides actually feel are worthy of wearing on their wedding day. It is a huge honor for every wedding dressmaker. So that is what their work is about.

Letters from Lockdown – Philippines, Greece, Michigan, Libya
by snap-admin | May 13, 2020
Some stories that seem the furthest away hit closest to home. Team Snap presents more lockdown advice from around the world, even from the places you least expect.
Some stories that seem the furthest away hit closest to home. Team Snap presents more lockdown advice from around the world, even from the places you least expect. Listen to the fifth installment of "Letters from Lockdown."
Father Picx is a Catholic priest from the Philippines. Every year he spends months alone in his hermitage, but his first experience with real solitude wasn't on a retreat… it happened in a place called the Dragon Room.
Noah and Freya met in a refugee camp in Greece. But after they fell in love, and wanted to start a new life together, they found it wasn't quite so easy to leave.
Watch Noah recite his poem + learn about Freya's business.
Alison wanted to take a nice long soak and found herself trapped for days.
Special thanks to Juuni in Michigan for helping us out during the pandemic.
Rafram is a visual artist who grew up in Jerusalem and traveled to Libya 10 years ago to photograph synagogues and Jewish graveyards. Rafram says he was granted permission from the Libyan government and police, but on the last day of his visit… Rafram was kidnapped.
These days, Rafram lives in Tunis, and usually posts pictures of his culinary adventures on Instagram. But he's currently on a social media break for 170 days, to mark 10 years since he spent 170 days in prison.
"Freedom is priceless, and real freedom is happening inside us," he wrote in his last post.
Thank you, Father Picx, Noah, Freya, Alison, and Rafram, for sharing your stories with us!

3.54pm EDT 15:54 Penalty to Brighton!
3.49pm EDT 15:49 Peeeeeeeep! Second half begins!
Thanks for your company there – it was a game whose drama distilled itself into those two minutes right after half-time, and never quite caught light before or after that despite a few flickers at either end. A draw was, for my money, fair and probably means Brighton will stay up. For Spurs, it's all eyes on the FA Cup. Keep an eye out for David Hytner's match report on these here pages, in the meantime. Take care, and see you all again soon!
A very good point for Brighton, as the fans' reaction shows. A "meh" point for Spurs.
90+3 min: There's anger now from Brighton, because Ryan clears brilliantly and sets them off on the attack but Kevin Friend has already blown for a free-kick after a foul from that corner.
90+2 min: Davies' cross is headed behind and it's a late, late corner for Tottenham. Ryan catches it, to hearty cheers.
90+1 min: We're in the first of three added minutes, by the way.
90 min: Ulloa chases a long ball after some brilliant defensive work from Knockaert, and Lloris sets hearts aflutter by slipping as he comes out for it ... but still has time to correct himself and clear.
90 min: One corner leads to a second, which is punched away well by Lloris.
86 min: Ulloa lays off a throw-in to Gross, who leans back and goes for a spectacular volley but it soars over and isn't really as close as the "oooohhhs" suggest. Good effort all the same.
85 min: Kane tries for a second goal but it's well wide. That's all from him for tonight – he's not looked near his best but still snaffled a goal. On comes Llorente.

Q: Redirect issue - Checkout redirect to cart I have a problem when updating one of my sites from 1.9.3.0 to 1.9.3.3. All my other sites are working fine.
Once updated (tried via SSH, FTP and Magento Connect Downloader) the onepage checkout just redirects back to the cart page. It does this irrespective of whether Formkey is enabled/disabled.
Ive tried many fixes, including adding formkey code to older extensions. I've even uninstalled all the extensions (via Magento Connect Downloader) without luck.
How do I go about troubleshooting this, and finding the cause of the problem?
The site has been live since 2012, and perhaps there may be some legacy theme/plugin elements causing the issue?
Any help would be highly appreciated!

A: *

*Download the fresh magento files of your version

*Upload again through FTP unless you haven't customized any of your magento files before.

Autism Science Foundation Announces Recipients of Second Round of COVID-19 Pivot Grant Recipients
New grants will seek to measure social communication skills in children with autism who are stuck at home, and will help expand a special education math curriculum for use online.
ASF also announces a request for applications for a third round of pivot grants and launches a new funding mechanism to study the effects of covid-19 on people with autism.
NEW YORK — September 8, 2020 — The Autism Science Foundation (ASF), a not-for-profit organization dedicated to supporting and funding innovative autism research, today announced its second round of COVID-19 Pivot Grant recipients. The grantees are Jacquelyn Moffitt of the University of Miami and Dr. Jenny Root of Florida State University.
Announced in April, the COVID-19 Pivot Grants are meant to help scientists fund needed adaptations or modifications of an original research plan as a result of ongoing shutdowns across research institutions. They are intended to be a fast-turnaround mechanism to accommodate an uncertain situation for the research community. This second round of pivot grants focused on early career investigators (scientists currently pursuing a doctoral degree to those up to seven years post-doctorate).
"Several months into the pandemic, the research community continues to face unprecedented challenges with carrying out planned projects," said Alison Singer, Co-Founder and President of ASF. "With the help of our Pivot Grants, some of this work can be adapted, ensuring that we continue to make progress toward breakthroughs even amid these difficult circumstances. In addition, ASF has always focused on supporting early career scientists who will be leading the way in this research for years to come, and we are pleased to be able to do so today."
Moffitt's grant will enable researchers at the University of Miami to better employ telehealth solutions for children with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD). While the pandemic has made it more difficult to access treatment in clinics, it has created a unique opportunity for researchers to collect information from children about social communication behaviors while they are at home. The Pivot Grant will enable researchers to provide families with language recorders and video cameras, helping to alleviate some of the shortcomings of telehealth and in some cases collect information for a longer period of time than might have been done in person.
Dr. Root's research is on special education in mathematics. In response to the lack of math curriculums designed for people with an ASD, Root and her colleagues have been building a mathematical instructional program for special education teachers to use with autistic children in a classroom. The Pivot Grant will allow them to adapt this program from being fully teacher-delivered to partially caregiver-delivered using video modules.
ASF also announced today a request for applications for a third round of COVID-19 Pivot Grants and launched a new mechanism to measure the effects of COVID-19 on people with autism.
Pivot Grants may be used to help support new costs encountered due to needed adaptations or modifications to an original research plan as a result of social distancing measures, PPE requirements, and/or the shutdown of research institutions. (For example, these funds can be used to purchase PPE or ipads)
COVID-19 Research funding is available to support some or all of the costs of expanding a current line of research to answer a question related to the effects of the pandemic on families with ASD. These can include studying the effectiveness of telehealth approaches, measuring effectiveness of virtually-delivered special education programs, understanding short or long-term consequences of social distancing, understanding the effects of COVID-19 in animal or cellular models of ASD, as well as specific interventions meant to deal with pandemic-related mental health issues in siblings and other family members. The funding cannot support the development of a project from scratch but rather should be considered as supplementation of an existing project.
The first round of Pivot Grant recipients was announced in June, with funding going to projects focused on early intervention and autism in low-resource households.

Google to Acquire Motorola Mobility Enabling Android to "Break New Ground" (Updated)
Kellen August 15, 2011 @iamkellex 230
Yep, you are reading that title correctly. Google is acquiring Motorola Mobility for $12.5 billion in a move that was clearly made because of Moto's massive patent portfolio. Both boards unanimously approved the decision – Google now looks to "supercharge" the Android operating system and enhance competition in the mobile space.
Notes from conference all:
Update 1: Most of the questions from media and investors on the call clearly has to do with patents and licensing – something Google or Motorola won't give many details about, but you can tell that they are very pleased with this partnership. Moto's some 17,000 patents greatly strengthens and helps protect Andr0id.
Update 2: And just so you know, both Larry Page and Andy Rubin have already said multiple times that Android remains open. Rubin spoke with the top 5 manufacturers yesterday and made it very clear to all of them that nothing has changed. Motorola will operate as its own company and Android will remain open to use as it has been. The idea here is that it gives Google a chance to "supercharge" the OS.
Update 3: You can view Larry Page's comments on the acquisition here.
Update 4: Andy Rubin still expects the Nexus series to be a competition between manufacturers. Just because they own Motorola now, doesn't mean that every new Nexus device will be from Moto. They will have to compete along with HTC, Samsung, LG, etc. to put together a phone that Google would be proud to brand as a Nexus.
Update 5: Call is over, Larry seems more-than-thrilled. As are we, Larry.
Definitely developing…
Google to Acquire Motorola Mobility
Combination will Supercharge Android, Enhance Competition, and Offer Wonderful User Experiences
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. & LIBERTYVILLE, Ill. – Aug. 15, 2011 – Google Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOG) and Motorola Mobility Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: MMI) today announced that they have entered into a definitive agreement under which Google will acquire Motorola Mobility for $40.00 per share in cash, or a total of about $12.5 billion, a premium of 63% to the closing price of Motorola Mobility shares on Friday, August 12, 2011. The transaction was unanimously approved by the boards of directors of both companies.
The acquisition of Motorola Mobility, a dedicated Android partner, will enable Google to supercharge the Android ecosystem and will enhance competition in mobile computing. Motorola Mobility will remain a licensee of Android and Android will remain open. Google will run Motorola Mobility as a separate business.
Larry Page, CEO of Google, said, "Motorola Mobility's total commitment to Android has created a natural fit for our two companies. Together, we will create amazing user experiences that supercharge the entire Android ecosystem for the benefit of consumers, partners and developers. I look forward to welcoming Motorolans to our family of Googlers."
Sanjay Jha, CEO of Motorola Mobility, said, "This transaction offers significant value for Motorola Mobility's stockholders and provides compelling new opportunities for our employees, customers, and partners around the world. We have shared a productive partnership with Google to advance the Android platform, and now through this combination we will be able to do even more to innovate and deliver outstanding mobility solutions across our mobile devices and home businesses."
Andy Rubin, Senior Vice President of Mobile at Google, said, "We expect that this combination will enable us to break new ground for the Android ecosystem. However, our vision for Android is unchanged and Google remains firmly committed to Android as an open platform and a vibrant open source community. We will continue to work with all of our valued Android partners to develop and distribute innovative Android-powered devices."
The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including the receipt of regulatory approvals in the US, the European Union and other jurisdictions, and the approval of Motorola Mobility's stockholders. The transaction is expected to close by the end of 2011 or early 2012

Science Central gets new permanent exhibit
There's so much to see at Science Central already and now you can add another feature to the list. The newest exhibit isn't open to the public yet, but it's sure to get you moving.
Posted: Dec 17, 2018 8:10 PM
Updated: Dec 17, 2018 11:07 PM
FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WFFT)- The name of the exhibit is Recollections. It consists of an interactive light wall. As a person moves, their outline is displayed where they can see their shadow in motion.
"We always talk about STEM, STEM education, science, technology, engineering and math. This is the technology side with computer graphics, computer exhibit which allows people to see themselves with this digital projection. It is technology, high technology at its finest," Martin Fisher, Executive Director of Science Central said.
This is the first scientific art visual of it's kind to come to Science Central, and the creator who flew in from California said he has no doubt people will like it once they enter the room.
Routinely people go in there and they're really surprised. It's a mirrored image of themselves. They're used to seeing mirror images. In this one, you're painting with your movements, so you're creating art with your movements," creator, Ed Tannenbaum said.
The wall is the same material as highway traffic signs making it easier to create a silhouette.
"It took a year inception to come to fruition. It was a tough year," Tannenbaum said.
Fisher said this exhibit is here to stay because it aligns with science central's mission of educating everyone here in Fort Wayne about how important STEM is.
"We're the only interactive hands on science center that's really in this tri-state area, so it's important for us, and our mission to be able to teach about STEM in a hands on interactive manor," Fisher added.
The opening of the exhibit will be this Saturday.

CNN Politics ended the year with a bang, earning 25 million multiplatform unique visitors for the month of December 2015 — the most current data released by comScore. The traffic places CNN Politics in a tie for first in its category with HuffPost Politics, a site that relies on a monthly boost of 6M+ unique visitors from a decidedly non-politics entity titled "Good News." Deliberately misrepresentedby the Huffington Post as politics content for the purpose of comScore traffic rankings, Good News is a hodgepodge of posts about breastfeeding in bars, shelter chihuahuas and a mini donkey with a prosthetic leg.
In short, CNN Politics remains the Web's number one source for actualpolitical news.
In multiplatform unique visitors for the month of December, CNN Politics totaled 25 million – millions more than HuffPost Politics without the addition of Good News traffic, and more than double the number of visitors to Fox News Politics, MSNBC TV and The Hill.
Sources: comScore Multi-Platform Media Metrix, December 2015. Based on News/Information – Politics Category.
CNN Politics continued to dominate in video for the month of December, up 38% over the previous month and a whopping 466% over the prior year. Scoring 48 million video starts, CNN Politics more than doubled that of its closest competitor The Young Turks Network and tripled MSNBC TV's video starts. HuffPost Politics placed 7th with only 2 million video starts for the month.
Source: comScore Video Metrix, December 2015. Based on News/Information – Politics Category. "PoliticsWeekly.com" is excluded from this ranking.
Up 40% over the previous month and 185% over the prior year, CNN Politics easily topped the list in multiplatform views for December. Nearly doubling its closest competitor HuffPost Politics (and Good News), CNN Politics earned 160 million multiplatform views for the month.

October 11, 2012 - The boy collected only a single fast food toy this past month, a Where's Waldo toy from Wendy's.
With that painfully uninteresting narrative out of the way, let's see what's out there in restaurants this month!
- Wendy's Kids Meals have Animal Planet toys, with a "Toys'R'Us Holiday Surprize" coming soon.
- McDonald's has Hotel Transylvania in their Happy Meals, with Scooby-Doo Halloween Pails shown as the next promotion.
- Sonic is oddly devoid of details, listing only "Wacky Pack Toys" when you click on the "Wacky Pack Toys" link to see what the toys are this time.
September 2012 - Our local Toys'R'Us restocked their K'NEX Angry Birds section, and the boy had stars in his eyes when he saw the $190 worth of new sets. Sadly for him, he has cheap parents, so despite the "buy one, get one 40% off" sale, we quickly zoned in on the $3.99 blind bag figures instead of the larger sets. The K'NEX web site shows that the blind bags ("Mystery Figures") are exclusive to Toys'R'Us.
We had really good luck using the cheat codes for the Mario Kart K'NEX blind bag figures, so we were happy to see a similar code on the back of the Angry Birds bags.
September 6, 2012 - The boy scored just one additional McDonald's SpongeBob SquarePants toy last month. Don't feel bad for him, though, as he hit the jackpot in the form of the K'NEX Angry Birds sets during a trip to Toys'R'Us. So he's getting new toys... he's just not eating fast food to "earn" them.
- Wendy's Kids Meals have Where's Waldo toys, with Animal Planet items coming soon.
- McDonald's has Power Rangers Super Samurai and "Hello. I'm Julius!" (by Paul Frank) in their Happy Meals, with Hotel Transylvania shown as the next promotion.
- Subway Kids Meals have reusable lunch sacks. The sacks now feature Frankenweenie.
August 5, 2012 - The boy saw a McDonald's commercial last month and decided that he needed the Ice Age toys, even though he's never actually sat all the way through any of the Ice Age movies. The service at our closest McDonald's is less than stellar, so after getting him one toy there, I bought a set via eBay and thought that was the end of it, but he convinced his grandparents to take him to McDonald's two more times. Lots of Ice Age toys in our house now - I can't complain, because the toys are actually quite nice.
The new promo at McDonald's is SpongeBob SquarePants, which the boy again learned about from a commercial, so we stopped on the way to the Bronco's Saturday Scrimmage, and he got a cute Gary toy. You push it along a flat surface and his eye stalks move.
