Fun around town, for $10 or less:

Sometimes kids can be so frustrating that parents might want to throw them to the sharks. Well, on July 29th and 30th they'll get the chance to do just that. In celebration of Shark Week, the Adventure Aquarium is hosting a unique event at its Delaware Waterfront location.

The Blue Cross RiverRink is hosting Skate With Sinatra this Sunday from 12:30-2:30 pm. Skaters on the ice will be treated to Ol' Blue Eyes' oevure pumped through the loudspeakers; for those, like Phillyist, who aren't crazy about being cold for long periods of time, the (heated) pavillion will offer some Frankie on the big screen, plus Sinatra Karaoke. Put on a suit and hat, drop by, and do your version of "My Way." You know you want to.

Having outgrown the Independence Blue Cross Tower within the past few weeks, the under-construction Comcast Center is now the fifth-tallest building in the city.

Watch for it to rise another on its way to Philadelphia skyline immortality. We're less than six months from topping out and about a year from opening day.

Well, there's one reason to be happy the cold weather has finally come down upon us - The Blue Cross RiverRink re-opens Thanksgiving weekend...and ice skating in 60 degree weather is just unnatural. The RiverRink opens at noon of the 25th - admission is $6 and skate rental is an additional $3. However - if you bring a new, unwrapped toy to donate to the B101/NBC 10 "Stockings for Kids" drive - you'll get one dollar off admission, giving you a chance to skate in the cold while still feeling warm and fuzzy inside. The RiverRink is located on Columbus Blvd. and Market Streets, Penns Landing.
