  3. Is Obama really throwing Israel under the bus?

    During the current presidential election campaign, Republican nominee Mitt Romney, in a clear effort to win Jewish votes, has asserted that President Barack Obama has "thrown Israel under the bus." Some 78 percent of American Jews voted for President Obama in 2008, and Mr. Romney is trying to cut into that margin, particularly in swing states with significant Jewish populations such as Florida, Pennsylvania and Ohio. Given the importance of Israel to the Jewish psyche, Mr. Romney is trying to demonstrate that, because of Mr. Obama's alleged lack of support for Israel, he is not worthy of the Jewish vote.

  4. London Olympics: 10 day trips outside London

    Ticket holders at this summer's Olympic Games will have something in common with non-sporting London visitors: At some point, they will want to flee the jam-packed capital. Luckily, escaping the madding crowds is as easy as hopping on a train. As a Brit who grew up near the city, here are my recommendations for 10 gold-medal-winning day trips.

  7. Living it up in the Dead Sea

    NEVE ZOHAR, Israel &#8212; Try not to splash. That's not the usual recommendation for a seaside vacation, but Israel's Dead Sea is like no other beach resort. Unique it is, with a salt and mineral content upward of 30 percent, which is why you need to pay attention to Rule No. 1. A splash of Dead Sea water in your eyes or mouth can send you running to shore.

  8. Take a chance on Guatemala

    SANTIAGO ATITLAN, Guatemala &mdash; Edna Sloan sat at a table open to the street and its vendors, quietly sipping a local beer. Purchase of a beer in this pretty-enough town on Lake Atitlan entitles free access to a bano certified clean by our guide, and in Guatemala that is no small thing.

  10. Extreme destinations: Overnight in the Arctic; dive to your hotel; stay in a room made of salt

    An "extreme" vacation often is in the eye of the vacationer. A week in Paris might be an extreme vacation to some people. A grand tour of the paper clip distribution warehouses of central Ohio would be extreme to someone else.

  11. Travel picks: Top 10 spots to explore by bicycle

    While most travelers know that Copenhagen and Amsterdam are ideal for exploring by bicycle, the rise of bike-sharing and bike tours in other cities is making discovering other destinations by bicycle easier than ever.

With immersion in the culture and seeing a few sites in one ride as our goal, the members and editors of travel website VirtualTourist.com compiled this list of the "Top Ten Spots to Explore by Bicycle."
