Proof of Courage
A Yellow Brick Road
Four well known travelers traveled a yellow brick path looking for a brain, a heart, courage and a way home. There are roads we must travel during our lifetime and we also look for the these same things. As we travel our roads of life we are accompanied by family and friends who lovingly make our path easy and smooth (or so it is hoped). We find comfort and love in their company. They instill in us what we need day to day and year after year. We are given not only the benefit of their wisdom but the foundation for the courage needed for life. We are asked to be brave for many different reasons.
It's Etched In Our Minds
Mothers and fathers have asked their sons and daughters to be brave for shots, x-rays, the first day of school, the dark, being away from home and for facing the death of someone close or known. Parents also ask for bravery for the benefit of our siblings, our parents, our close relatives or friends. Sometimes we are were even told bravery belonged to a certain age. The age was not always a number. It was almost magical, appearing all of sudden. It could have been because we were old enough, it was time, or we needed to be the man of the house. We are encouraged to face a brave new world from the time we take our first step which most of the time is a complete surprise to us and a momentous celebration for our parents. I don't think there is more exuberant encouragement for bravery than that first baby step. Courage rewarded with claps, shouts of joy and hopefully pictures.
It's Etched On Our Hearts
But, we are also at times left unaccompanied when the road divides and we are left alone on a path accompanied by strangers. A divided path can run pararell and visible to journers. For many reasons the paths we choose do not remain pararell and visible to those with whom we started our journey. We lose touch with our dearest of friends, we separate from family for many reasons some of which are out of our control. We learn to become brave on our own. We find we have the courage to follow our heart. We were told to be of courage in our mind and to do what our heart tells us is right and good. And so, our journey of courage becomes heartfelt. The path chosen now can cause uncertainy, fear and worry for parents, siblings, spouses, and freinds because a path that follows a cause can be very dangerous and uncertain and sometimes even unsupported.
It's Etched In Memories & Bodies
The memories of our brave are sacred ground to them. Their courage has changed them both physically and mentally. Courage does have a cost. And, our brave soldiers pay that cost. Those that are sent into war do not return the same for what they see and hear remains in their memories. They wear the scars in their minds or on their bodies. Their travels have given them scars of wisdom, heart and courage. These scars last a lifetime and they struggle for the heart, wisdom and courage to find a way home. Don't let them travel alone.
It's Etched In Stone
Thank our men and women of courage, our veterans and soldiers.
Thank the families that taught and supported courage.
Give thanks for those who rest in the peace of their courage for God whispers their names.

Truly wonderful article on courage! - Chris and S.
Very touching to read. You are so right. Those that love us make our Journey easier but it wretches us apart when they are taken from us.
Only Courage/bravery can move us forward.
God Bless the souls of our Soldiers and lost ones. #Gratitude
Thanks for a lovely Hub.
Bravery can mean so many things to different people. Thanks for sharing this. I'm passing it on. :)
Thank you for a visit to see your etchings! Lovely, thought-provoking poem and I enjoyed reading it - and the photos.

The Lamley Group posted up a K-Day case unboxing, and it's an interesting one...
So, what we apparently have are cases that are a mix of A Case (Corvette Z06 Convertible, R30 Skyline) and B Case (R33 Skyline, Defender Double Cab).
Literally, the codes on the backs of the cards in the case are a mix of 'A' and 'B' codes, so it's not a single case assortment with first to markets and exclusive recolors, like they usually are.
Here's hoping to find some good stuff.
Also, if you go, don't forget to check out the Garden Shop part of the store...bins may be waiting.
UPDATE: Thanks to RoadToad Racing on YT, we have confirmation that ABB cases will have a different assortment than ABC cases, like in the Lamley video. This includes the Chevrolet Nova, which is the B Case Super TH.
Fortunately, both the R30 and R33 Skylines will show up in both cases, while the regular and possibility of a Super are split between the two cases, so if you can...bring a friend or family member and hope to get BOTH cases. You won't regret it.

How to overcome cushion crisis
Elissa Webster
I am in a constant state of cushion crisis. I have this nagging feeling - all the time - that my living room, or my daybed, or my actual bed, would be so much more warm/comfortable/character-filled/magnificent if only I could get my cushion arrangement exactly right. That The One cushion out there that would perfectly resolve my soft furnishings layout for all time does exist, but still eludes me. Every now and then I become convinced that The One actually resides in my house and has just been sequestered in the wrong nook all this time - but on redeployment, I find I have struck another useless match. And now I have a brand new cushion quandary on my hands.Read More

As we head into Fall, I was looking for shoes that would fit the color palette of the season and litterally stumbled upon these Alexander McQueen Leaf Platform shoes. I think they are truly stunning. Anyone who knows Alexander McQueen, knows his style can be a bit out there at times, but this one is so on the money!!! This shoe would be great for a Fall wedding, with gold, brown, or red accents. Or, just to have in your closet. You could also wear these after the wedding day, if you chose to do so.

As of September 2017, The Meyer Suite is five years old. And as of September 2017, I am 39 years old. In moments of cosmic connectivity, you congratulate me, and I thank you. You're happy for me, and I'm happy you're happy for me. Then my ego waits for the next hit of 'happiness.'
On my birthday, you said or asked, "Happy Birthday! Congratulations! Enjoy! Here's to a fantastic year and many more! Did you have a good birthday?"
"It was a weird day," I answered.
Happy Birthday, question mark. Was it? Will it be? And what else will it be?
This year, my birthday was like most days: there were a few lovely, celebratory moments, mostly blah moments (on your birthday, "blah," just means "ordinary"), there was an email that was really hard to read and dampened my mood, and there was conversation and connectivity. I wanted it to be what everyone was wishing me: a GREAT day that sets the tone for the year ahead. While I didn't send it down the drain, it was not ALL-CAPS-GREAT.
Until sitting to write this in the week following my personal birthday, I realize I had forgotten my company's milestone. I somewhat downplay my own birthday; and just as I've done writing this blog post, both ignored and skipped right on over the fact that something I created, built, both nurture and neglect, exists. The company is HERE! This is a blog post on my company's website, and I am HERE to write it! I don't need to throw a party (or maybe I should?), but I need to appreciate this, and let others appreciate me.
At this point, if you're not thinking "E for Elizabeth; E for Eeyore," you should be; I am! These
anniversary dates aren't coinciding with euphoric feelings; ugh! I am not dismissing well-wishes AT ALL, but have I mismanaged my own expectations of what it's like to collect those on your anniversary?
What I have realized is this: this year, in particular, I struggled to connect with the statements others send me. Therein lies the subtle root of my internal conflict: I was questioning, "Happy Birthday, exclamation point."
I want more. I find myself craving/asking for more in the year ahead, both professionally and
personally, than what I got. Friends and family members sent along exactly what I send along:
pleasantries, good thoughts, well-wishes, and exclamation points. And I want more. Not more wishes than last year, not more acknowledgment of existence, but stuff that exists further out on the path of well-wishes. Not more emphasis on the exclamation points, but more understanding of what the sender means. Not more "good," but more depth and honesty.
After you digest this, you'll want more. And in wanting more depth and honesty for ourselves, we must recognize the call to also provide it to others. It is received and honored in such a cool way! We are greedy for "more," but also giving more!
Again, not to say we don't simply wish people well, but we are going deeper. Further out on the path of well-wishes:
- I wish you a celebratory feeling at some point in the day.
- I wish you conscious awareness of your thoughts.
- I wish you a shiver as thing you wish for while blowing out your candles actually comes true.
- I wish you a light feeling that accompanies an "a-ha" moment, following an extended period of struggle.
- I wish you the kind of gift that you can only give yourself.
I could go on and on with these, but instead will ask you for what I should have asked for in early September: your well-wishes, found further out on the path. Please share/practice them here in the comments, and then go out there to that same spot on the path with others this year! And go out there for yourselves!
May the time in between Happy Birthday's – seconds, as well as days – be more. Period.
- Elizabeth
p.s. This is how I responded to a friend who asked if I had a good birthday:
"It ended up being such an odd day! I put a lot of pressure on it being "great," and setting the on the tone for a new year. In reality, it did set tones: gratitude through struggle, friendship, deeper-than-surface conversation, professional challenges that indicate I'm "in it" (not sitting side-lined), new things, [physical] strength, good wine, making the best of situations that seem dumb, and love. That is what 39 will be."

The festival, taking place at Manor Central Park, will include areas emulating Japanese locations like Fuji, Ginza, Tsuki, Sasuke and Yaguza Tower in Tokyo, including houses, traditional shops and culinary stalls. Photo for illustration Among them, the Fuji District is a perfect spot to take photos and check in as it is designed with Japanese and Vietnamese streets decorated with wind chimes, wagasa (oil-paper umbrella), conical hats and lanterns. Visitors will feel like they are in Japan as they can visit famous places reproduced at the festival, play Kendama, join sumo competitions and shop for Japanese brands. Art performances of yosakoi, fan dancing and taiko drum will also entertain visitors.

KELOWNA, B.C. - NDP Leader Adrian Dix took his campaign to a distillery in downtown Kelowna where he had a few drinks in a building that once housed a hardware store owned by British Columbia's former Social Credit premier W.A.C. Bennett.
Okanagan Spirits chief executive officer Tyler Dyck served Dix on Sunday the distillery's award-winning blackcurrant liqueur, of which he took two sips.
Not known as a regular drinker, Dix also sipped a whisky sour made from local Okanagan fruit.
The visit to the Kelowna distillery coincided with Dix's agriculture-policy announcement in nearby Lake Country that included what he said were economic moves to improve access to markets by B.C.'s craft-distillery industry.
The industry currently occupies less than one-half of one per cent of the province's total alcohol market.
Dix said an NDP government will reduce the province's liquor markup to 129 per cent from 170 per cent and allow more sales options for craft products.
The Liberals responded to Dix's distillery proposals with a statement, saying in the last year they have revised liquor policies to support B.C. breweries, wineries and distilleries by allowing more flexibility at live-event venues and permitting alcohol in movie theatres.
The Liberals also changed liquor regulations to permit restaurant customers to bring their own wine into a licensed-dining establishment.
Earlier Sunday, Dix visited an apple orchard in the Okanagan riding of Liberal Agriculture Minister Norm Letnick to announce a $24-million plan to increase growth in the province's agriculture industry.
Orchardists from the Okanagan handed out slices of locally grown Ambrosia apples to the gathering.
Dix said the three-year program will add $8-million annually to the province's agriculture budget to help grow, feed and purchase B.C. products.
Letnick said in a statement the Liberal budget provides increased supports for the agriculture sector, including an additional $4 million over three years to provide increased oversight for the Agricultural Land Commission.
The commission seeks to preserve farmland in B.C.
The budget also included $20 million in carbon-tax relief for farmers and greenhouse growers who consume fossil fuels to keep their operations going.
Dix said Feed BC involves increasing the amount of locally grown foods served at B.C. hospitals, while Grow BC helps orchardists replant their orchards.
"We know, you know that local food is good for you," said Dix. "We know, you know that the time that you need the best quality of food is when you are sick.
"You know, we know that whether it's the Fraser Valley, or here in the Okanagan, we have some of the best agricultural land in the world and some of the most innovative farmers in the world."
He said the NDP program will ensure B.C. hospitals increase their local food purchases.
"Our short-term goal is to increase the level of local purchases by five per cent," said Dix, adding the Fraser Health authority in the Lower Mainland currently does not have a local-food policy for its hospitals.
"That's got to change," he said.
He said Buy BC, which seeks to promote B.C. food products, expands a B.C. fruit-and-food marketing program eliminated by the Liberals in 2001.
Dix said he did not consider his plans to a subsidy.
"It seems to me to make sense that when government buys food it should give priority to local food, as they do in many other jurisdiction, as they do in Washington state, we should do here," he said.
B.C. Fruit Growers' Association president Jeet Dukhia said Dix's plans are a step forward for orchardists, especially the support for replanting and renewing orchards.
He said the Liberals announced a similar $2-million plan last May, but an ongoing replanting initiative was not included in the February budget.
"I don't say they cut it off, but it was not in the budget," he said.
Dukhia said the replanting initiative will allow orchardists to experiment with new fruit products.
He said it cost orchardists about $30,000 an acre to replant an orchard, but the long-term advantage is they can go from 100 tree per acre to 2,000 trees.
The Liberals introduced a spend-o-meter clock Sunday to count what they say are $2 billion in spending promises being made by the Dix campaign.
"One week into the campaign and all we've seen from Adrian Dix is how fast he can spend your money," said Finance Minister Mike de Jong in a statement.
"And while the money is being spent very quickly, the NDP refuse to say how they'll pay for it all or even provide any details. They think it's their money, when it's really taxpayers' money."

Firefly Festival VIP Sweepstakes Winner Announced!
Dana Pugsley is the final winner of Mercury's Festival VIP Sweepstakes. She and her husband, Andy, will travel from their home in Alabama to Dover, Del., June 18-21 to enjoy the Firefly Music Festival. She shares with us in the following Q&A her thoughts on winning the VIP trip and how she and her husband are looking forward to finally getting to take the honeymoon they never had. Definitely not a bad way to celebrate.
Q: How did you find out about the Mercury Insurance Festival VIP Sweepstakes?
I enter sweeps quite a bit and came across this one on my Facebook newsfeed. When I first started entering contests I would enter everything I saw. In the past few years however, I have only entered those where the prize is something which I wish to win. I saw this one and was secretly crossing my fingers! Not only a trip (which I have NEVER won before) but a trip to an incredible music festival!!
Q: Have you ever been to or heard of Firefly before?
I had not heard of the Firefly festival until I entered the contest and chose that as my prize if I should win. It sounded awesome and from everything I read online, it seemed to be the one my husband and I would most enjoy.
Q: Why'd you choose to enter to win a trip to Firefly out of all of the available festivals?
I chose only the Firefly Festival because of all the festivals held, this one seemed to be the most musically eclectic. My husband and I enjoy almost all genres of music and the Firefly seems to encompass it all! Where else can you go to see Sir Paul McCartney AND Snoop Dogg? I mean, really!! American Bands, British bands, Australian Bands … all sharing the same venue!! How awesome is that??
Q: What were your first thoughts when you found out you won the Firefly trip?
I had to read the email several times because I was in shock! My husband was at work and as soon as I called him I was still so excited I could barely talk!
Q: Who do you plan to take with you on your VIP trip?
My husband, of course! My husband and I have a long history (beginning with being childhood sweethearts when we were neighbors on Long Island) and when we reconnected through Facebook in 2011 after losing touch for over 15 years, we picked up where we left off. I came to visit him in Alabama on March 7 and we married on St. Patrick's Day 🙂 In addition to that, our very first kiss was while Andy (a BIG Beatles fan) was playing "Michelle" so, seeing Paul McCartney makes this even more special for the two of us 🙂
Q: What about the festival are you most looking forward to?
Paul McCartney has always been on my bucket list so this is just awesome! But we are also looking forward to seeing Snoop Dog, Morrisey, The Killers, and Gary Clark Jr! I am also looking forward to the different areas of the festival, from the Woods, to the arcade, to the Hammock Hangout, and we plan to explore and enjoy every one!
Q: Any additional comments?
Andy and I are originally from Long Island so our music history is quite rich! Some of the best bands and artists are from Long Island: Billy Joel, Eddie Money, Pat Benatar, Debbie Gibson, Twisted Sister, Blue Oyster Cult, Harry Chapin, Lou Reed, Simon and Garfunkel, Stray Cats, Mariah Carey, LL Cool J, Joan Jett, The Good Rats … just to name a few! We have some of the best concert sites: Nassau Coliseum, Madison Square Garden, Westbury Music Fair, and my favorite was the Jones Beach Amphitheater. We have both seen so many concerts over the years, but with the exception of a few local bands or small venues (we saw the Blues Travelers recently when they played in a small town near us), this will be our very first festival together ever!! And from the lineup, I think it will be the best music festival on the East Coast!
I cannot thank Mercury Insurance and AXS TV enough! This is definitely an experience of a lifetime! And thank you for giving me the opportunity to share it with my husband. It will be the honeymoon we never had!! <3

In construction, some of the most rewarding moments come when a project successfully draws to a close. As builders, we draw a tremendous sense of pride from seeing months of careful coordination and forethought realized as a finished building. This spring, OTL has the privilege of completing two residential development projects in Cobble Hill, Brooklyn. Both projects feature clean, modern design, and gorgeous finishes, each with its own personality and feel. We feature the interiors of both projects here:
In Progress: 325 Henry Street
Progress at the 325 Henry Street site in Brooklyn has charged ahead through the summer and fall. The project has progressed from a seventeen-foot deep excavation to a complete concrete foundation and superstructure. As of this publishing, the building has topped out and the crew is preparing for the next phase of work. We are all excited to see this building continue to take shape as the facade construction begins.
Breaking Ground: OTL Takes Brooklyn
OTL has built in Brooklyn before, but our presence in New York's largest borough has never been stronger. With three projects set to take place over the next two years, OTL is ramping up operations across the river. Each of these diverse projects presents unique challenges for the firm and tackling them has required a great deal of pre-construction planning. Some site work has already been completed and we are excited to get these projects fully underway. Look out for "In Progress" web updates as these projects forge ahead.
"We have started to venture into boroughs other than Manhattan and I think that is where our future growth lies." - Angelo Cosentini, Principal
In Progress: 47th Street
Superstructure work is well underway at 47th Street and we are pushing toward topping out the structure soon. Every week a section of the old floor structure is removed making way for new steel and concrete slabs. As the structure continues upward, the framing is being laid out below, giving the first glimpse of what these apartments will be like.
Breaking Ground: 17th Street
Foundation and superstructure work is underway at 221 West 17th Street and concrete trucks are lined up down the block. For this project OTL is acting as Construction Manager and General Contractor to convert an existing 6 story commercial building into 10 stories of luxury condos and prime retail space. This project's sequence of work is very complex as the existing structure must be strengthened or replaced piece by piece. Underpinning is complete and new concrete columns are being formed around the existing cast iron columns. In addition to the concrete work, a steel shoring truss is being installed at the top floor which will soon relieve two columns of their load so they can be removed to make way for the new core of the building. All of this work takes great coordination between the OTL team and several trades working in synchronization. Everyone is excited to see this challenging and unique project take shape.
In-Progress: 47th Street
Now that we've finished the first phase of interior removals, the excavation phase begins. This includes the underpinning of the neighboring buildings and front wall, as well as 6' of bedrock excavation. These photos showcase preparation for the pouring of concrete foundation walls by way of sheeting, shoring, line drilling and lagging. The steel bracing holds up the existing four floors while excavation is finished.
Breaking Ground: 47th Street
Demolition commenced on West 47th Street, where OTL, acting as Construction Manager and General Contractor, is transforming a commercial building into a 14,000 sq ft, 7-story building of luxe condos. Tracking for completion by Spring 2016, the completed building will house 5 units including 1 triplex with a townhouse feel to it which will include a private garage space, 1 duplex and 3 full floor units.

afraid to jump around. If you can truly get your point across well beneath the word limit, its probably fine. Scott Fitzgerald includes a number of symbols, including the green light on Daisys dock that represents Gatsbys hopes and dreams of the future. So there you go!
How to make an essay longer or shorter - Writing Samples
So for a 500-word limit essay, try to get to somewhere between 450-500 words. And of course all of this planning works best when you start your essay well in advance of the deadline, so dont procrastinate. (And if youre wondering, thats about a page and a half double-spaced.) 500 words is long enough to develop a basic idea while still getting a point across quicklyimportant when admissions counselors have thousands of essays to read! Give it a try! You dont have to stay in one place and write from beginning to end. Broaden your topic (if necessary). Smith also states that this symbol is important in the book because it reflects Gatsbys future ambitions. Unless stated otherwise in an assignment, though, an essay can have 4 or 7 or 20 paragraphs! Total price:.00, common topics in this essay: dharma in the mahabharata essay Colin Powell, colin Powell, katie Gearlds. The best essays answer the How?

Bucktown takes its name from the goats that once roamed its streets (male goat = buck). Hooves long gone now though, Bucktown plays little bro to next door Wicker Park, and occupies the same eclectic art-chic niche. It's even home to an artist colony, Gallery Point. Scattered cobblestone roads, hundred-year-old buildings, a vast spread of bars and restaurants, and the Blue Line combine to make this place homey, über-cool, and convenient all at the same time.

Bucktown Reviews
Michael B.
The New Wicker Park
Bucktown is the new Wicker Park. The gentrification that took place in Wicker Parkyears ago has now fully transformed it into the hip neighborhood in Chicago. However, with such an established "hipness" comes higher rent, and the student and struggling artist demographic which used to populate Wicker Park has since been pushed Westward into the area known as Bucktown.
Bucktown is great for students or young professionals looking to save a few bucks, while still remaining centrally located in Chicago's North side. A few miles from DePaul, five miles from downtown, and within seven or eight miles of Loyola this is a great spot for a household with various work and school destinations.
Public transit is convenient. Buses travel regularly on any of the major roads and from anywhere in Bucktown you are no more than about a mile from either the California or Western Blue Line stops.
Unlike Wicker Park, mainstream retail and posh boutiques have yet to take over. Instead, you get the local flavor. Locally owned resurants, from humble diners serving up classically American comfort food to an array of authentic Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, and Costa Rican delicacies for any budget.
If you want a romantic night on the town or that designer dress at Marc Jacobs you may need to travel to Wicker Park. But the good news is it's right down the street.

Bucktown; edgy meets money
Bucktown is a great area with some fantastic retail, restaurants and clubs – and it's also a bit edgy, as in you never know what you're going to see next. Although I never lived in Bucktown, I did live next door in Logan Square, and spent alot of time in Bucktown for work and leisure. The housing boom went supersonic in Bucktown, and many new buildings and complete rehabs were done. There are many choices from new construction mid rises to rehabbed three flats, and beyond, and you can find something for most budgets (although at the lower end you may not want to actually live in them). There are a number of hip, locally famous, restaurants/clubs in the area, and many little hole-in-the-wall places too. If you dislike the young urban professional feel of Lincoln Park, and want to see if you can hang with the committed to being hip crowd, then Bucktown is a neighborhood you should consider. There is literally every demographic in Bucktown, from the very rich to the very poor, and everything in between. It is a great area to walk the sidewalks, see the galleries, parlors, salons, theatre, etc etc. The parking ranges from easy to sometimes difficult, depending on the street – if you're on Milwaukee it will be tougher. Cost of living is up to the individual; there's very high end and the very low end. I once showed a home for sale priced over $1Million, and a half block away showed another home for $250K that was so close to an old school butcher (doing on site slaughter) that I almost gagged from the smell. I've been there at night and seen some of Chicago's biggest shots hanging out, then walked to my car and thought I was going to get carjacked. It's not for everyone, but Bucktown is a great place to live and is full of interesting folks.

An Extension Of Wicker Park
Bucktown is a small neighborhood in west Chicago immediately east of Logan Squareand north of Wicker Park. For all practical purposes, however, Bucktown is an extension of Wicker Park. In fact, several businesses technically located in Wicker Park have "Bucktown" in their names, and the two neighborhoods share a chamber of commerce: the Wicker Park & Bucktown Chamber of Commerce.
Bucktown's main dining and shopping corridor runs down Damen Ave. between Webster and North Aves. in an area most people probably consider part of Wicker Park, although North Ave. is the border between the two neighborhoods.
Reviews of Wicker Park are equally applicable to Bucktown. The hipsters, artists and yuppies who reside in or frequent Wicker Park will feel at home in Bucktown, as well. Those looking for cheaper rents may find Bucktown to be slightly more affordable, although the closest CTA El stop is the Blue Line at Damon. As a result, commuting by public transportation may be slightly less convenient from the northern part of the neighborhood.

Buck Off
Often confused with Wicker Park, Bucktown lies just north of the hipster mecca and south of Logan Square. If you've gone north of well, North Ave, then you've arrived to the locally owned, artist habited, less pretentious hipster mecca's sidekick. But on a serious note, Bucktown houses some pretty great laid back areas and affordable housing if you're looking for that trendy feel without dropping big bucks. You'll seem even more hip to your friends. Its convenient to get to thanks to the reliable bus schedules and blue line nearby.
While the majority of the residents are students or young professionals, there is a sense of community and family as well. Many child oriented craft stores and activities are especially popular in the summertime.What's awesome
charming, great restaurants and galleries
Liz M.
In Bucktown, vintage clothing stores and head shops abound, and you can't throw a rock without it sailing through someone's ear spacer. The people here are arty, trendy, study film at Columbia or UIC, or have already put their film degree to use as a Starbucks barista or bike messenger.
Kidding aside, this is a clean, fun, safe neighborhood. It's on the pricey side but is less expensive than Boystown or Lakeview, and has tons of buses and el lines running through it.
Mix and match
Bucktown residents often feel sandwiched too tightly between Logan and Wicker Park. There isn't so much of an identity crisis as a best-of-both-worlds feeling. This nabe is mostly residential with plenty of locals who have grown up in the area their whole lives, but its "six-corners" is trendy enclave for drinking, dining and thrifting. This is where you find the hipsters, if you insist on calling people that, sure. The rents are already too high.
The northwestern quadrant is heavily working-class and Hispanic. Tons of flower shops, for some reason. There are small, family-owned grocery stores and a few representative big boxes for your convenience. If you look hard enough, you'll find (hallelujah!) real-life neighborhood dive bars in this nabe. Several bars hold revolving queer dance nights with usually great music that strive really hard to be a safe space for trans/gender-non-conforming folk.
Bucktown is a fantastic space on the west-side for students, artists, families and the boho crowd. It's got something for everybody.
beatrix f.
This neighborhood is so mixed, it even shares its locale with Wicker Park (next doorish—the two areas tend to blend together). Bucktown has many highlights, but one of the most wonderful things this neighborhood has to offer is a true mix of people: artists, lawyers, young kids, hipsters, middle and upper class families, business executives. It's an amazing place for people who celebrate how truly diverse people can be. That being said, a walk on the streets here is always a new experience. It's also a great place to take photographs—especially portraits. Bucktown/Wicker Park's one of the best places to get a drink as well. There's always a homey buzz here. Be smart and be safe though. As is the rule everywhere, don't go wandering around here in the middle of the night by yourself.

Exploring the Mindset with the Discount Coupon Now
The discount coupon provides an opportunity to purchase goods at a lower cost. The purpose of such actions is to attract more customers, which is used, in the main, by large trading organizations. Low activity of buyers at the same time increases significantly, and distributing discount sites thereby act as a link between the buyer and these organizations. For example, coupons you can buy home appliances, children's products and numerous tools at the most convenient prices with a flexible system of discounts.
The Divisions
Discount coupons can be divided into discounts for general and specific applications. As it is clear by name, coupons of the first kind are paid for any goods or services. The second type of discount coupons is calculated for a certain type of product. These may be parts or accessories for cars, food, clothing, business services, medical services, professional services, sports and leisure, household services and so on. Coupons can even save on entertainment, on services in beauty salons, as well as at a variety of concerts and performances in the theater, watching movies in the cinema. With the perfect use of the iHerb coupon you can make a difference now.
The main advantage of using coupon codes is the maximum money saving and the realization of all your desires, which until then were only in dreams. Basically, coupons for discounts are provided on the sites for collective purchases. They provide the opportunity to pay for the coupon electronically by credit card or electronic wallet. After the purchase, the coupon is either printed or the coupon number is sent to the phone by SMS. Then you can decide which service to use for the coupon. Thus, making purchases is much more pleasant and at the same time more profitable.
Discount coupons
Coupons can be divided into 2 more types: it can be a coupon for a discount and just a certificate. The first type of discount coupon in the form of a ticket costs almost 200 rubles. After buying it, the product is purchased for a smaller amount. It should be noted that such coupons pay for goods and services that are considered more expensive. And the cost of coupons, similar to certificates, is equal to the cost of the goods themselves. Most often they are provided for visits to a museum or entertainment facilities, and often to inexpensive goods.
The Advice
It is advisable to approach the selection of goods on sites and to purchase a coupon responsibly. Attentively study the tempting offers, compare prices and discounts on the goods with other discount sites. Ask the most selling organization about the price of the product without a discount, the opportunity to work with coupons, additional payment. Reasonably spend your money, read reviews about this or that online store that works on a discount system, on forums or ask about them from friends.

Nice to see you here! I'm Cat Knarr, race and religion writer. I write for publications like Christianity Today, Faithfully, and the Covenant Companion.
I live in Chicago with my husband, Ben, and our dog, Luna. As a multiracial Christian, I have been drawn to stories about faith, diversity, and justice. Here's a glimpse of where my journey has taken me.
Where I Studied
I graduated summa cum laude from the University of Missouri School of Journalism. While at Mizzou, I also studied Religious Studies and International Studies with an emphasis in Peace Studies.
My Writing Journey
My journalism background has led me to many powerful stories about race and religion. I've reported from…
– Chicago (writing for The Chicago Reporter and UrbanFaith)
– Kigali, Rwanda (writing for Christianity Today magazine)
– Palestine and Israel (writing for the Covenant Companion)
– Brussels, Belgium (actually, I never intended to go to Belgium but you can read what happened in the Covenant Companion)
– Gemena, DR Congo (writing for Covenant Kids Congo)
– Ferguson, Missouri (writing for Christianity Today)
– And of course, my college town of Columbia, Missouri (writing for the Columbia Missourian, Columbia Faith & Values, and Christianity Today).
While studying abroad in Rwanda, I visited local churches and met people who had survived the genocide. I listened to Rwandan Christians share their experiences with trauma and faith, and I wrote an article about the country's religious transformation for Christianity Today. It was one of the hardest yet most meaningful stories I've ever written.
I've also reported for Christianity Today on Ferguson residents who are rebuilding their city, the spirituality of noncollege-bound Millennials, and more.
Where It All Began
My interest in religion writing and international news dates back to high school, when I became a contributing writer for CT's Ignite Your Faith magazine and the global issues blogger for Teen Ink. In college, I quickly picked up the religion beat for our student newspaper The Maneater and later reported on many stories about race or religion for the Columbia Missourian and UrbanFaith.com. I interned for The Chicago Reporter, covering race and criminal justice, and for InterVarsity Press, editing Christian books.

The Grass Is Always Greener? (EHR edition)
There are very few topics that inspire solidarity in the house call community like attitudes toward Electronic Health Records. This topic has dominated the lunches and happy hours of the annual AAHCP conference, as a particular struggle for house call practices. If you're a house call practice currently weighing implementing or changing your EHR solution, some thoughts from my past experiences:
1) There is no golden solution. I've helped to vet EHRs for two different house call operations, and none of the considered vendors were built for this type of practice. Though every sales team promises that enhancements will be quick and effortless (as sales teams are wont to do), this is almost never the case. After contracts were signed, I saw three different EHR groups suddenly become very slow at building enhancements or tried to convince my client to change their workflow to fit the EHR's current processes. It can be a very frustrating experience and, in one case, came at great expense to the client due to a delay of nearly six months.
2) Most EHR companies do not have an understanding of the differences between house calls and facility care. The key issue seems to be the reports that are needed to effectively schedule your provider teams. The top 20 EHRs in the United States do not have the ability to produce these reports. Further, these same EHRs need significant enhancement requests simply to manage the patient data in the ways necessary for a house call practice. Due to the complicated nature of the house call patient base, a robust organizational solution is needed … but EHR vendors need to begin shadowing house call practices to understand how to build it.
3) Beware the free option. It should not come as a shock that implementing an EHR is not a cheap process. There are some more affordable choices out there – but many are not certified, meaning you'll have no Meaningful Use or Physician Quality Reporting System dollars coming in to help subsidize your EHR costs. There are some certified options that will give you an EHR solution for free, but these are often billing companies that built EHRs in order to get your billing business. They assume responsibility for billing and take a percentage that, for house call practices, can be cost-prohibitive. And you also have to consider what would happen if you wanted to switch your EHR, because it becomes extremely difficult when your current vendor is rooted in your reimbursements.
4) Do your homework. I mean really do your homework – dig into information that sits outside of online reviews and peer thoughts. Do a quick check to see if the EHR provider has been involved in any litigation. If so, how many times? For what? During the vetting process with one vendor, we discovered the company had been sued 15 times in the past year for breach of contract.
5) Verify cache. One of the biggest obstacles with mobile EHRs is that, with the exception of one non-certified vendor, none of the current options have a cache solution. So if your team is in a patient's home and loses connectivity, they also lose their exam notes and have to switch to paper. Without a cache solution, you'll likely need to send a hot spot into the field with your providers. I have tested the hotspot with house call groups in the past and, while it worked great within city limits, it was completely unreliable in rural and suburban areas. In fact, outside of cities, the hot spot lost its signal approximately 60% of the time.
So, where does that leave you, as a house call practice seeking an EHR vendor? Unfortunately, not in a great spot. Obviously, if your EHR solution is collapsing, you must do what you need to do. But after vetting so many EHR providers, I feel the industry is at least two years away from a true house call solution, as the issues with generating the correct reports and keeping a signal in the field seem to be universal.
If you're an EHR company reading this – I highly recommend developing a house call-specific program. It's a growing market, desperate for a solution that understands its unique challenges.
Some things to consider,

But, overall, irregularities tend to be regularized faster than regular forms become irregular. Irregular forms tend to evolve rapidly, sometimes the result of sound-changes. The classic example is the radical-changing verbs of Spanish. In Old Spanish, there were seven vowels, /i/, /e/, /E/, /a/, /o/, /O/, and /u/. Later, when stressed, /E/ and /O/ became /je/ and /wo/ (later /we/), while remaining in unstressed position. Thus, a verb like /pO'der/ had the first-person singular present indicative form /'pwo.do/ --> /'pwe.do/. This was a complication, but still regular. /E/ became /je/, while /e/ remained /e/. They became irregular when /E/ and /e/ and /o/ and /O/ fused in unstressed position, thus /pO'der/ became /po'der/, identical stem to /po'dar/. It thus became impossible to predict whether the /o/ would change or not. Compare /po'dar/ --> /'podo/, but /po'der/ --> /'pwe.do/. Then, irregular forms are slowly regularized. Another example is Old English. Pre-Old English had one plural form ending in -i, so that mu:s (mouse) became mu:si. This caused the <u> to front, making it my:si, later the -i was dropped, creating /mu:s/ vs. /my:s/, later /mi:s/. We still keep this, with the vowels changed by the Great Vowel Shift, as /maus/ and /majs/. However, some other -i changes have been regularized. We no longer say "kine" for "cows" (actually, "kine" itself was an earlier semi-regularization, the plural ending -(e)n was added to the plural form "ky", analogous to dialects that have "childrens (or /tSIlInz/) and "mens") -- "It's bad manners to talk about ropes in the house of a man whose father was hanged." - Irish proverb http://members.tripod.com/~Nik_Taylor/X-Files http://members.tripod.com/~Nik_Taylor/Books.html ICQ: 18656696 AIM Screen-name: NikTailor

As Rockstar Games promised the studio has rolled a new Red Dead Redemption 2 trailer and in this trailer, we are briefly introduced to the game's characters. While the game looks stunning in the trailer but, still there is no official release date for the game.
In this new ew Red Dead Redemption 2 trailer we see various characters who interact with each other and also the trailer glimpses what the story will be. However, fans were expecting a release date for the game but, the studio has not revealed it and still, there is no sign of PC version.
The story of outlaw Arthur Morgan and the Van der Linde gang as they rob, fight and steal their way across the vast and rugged heart of America in order to survive. Coming Spring 2018 to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One systems.
What is interesting is that Van der Linde was the villain in the Red Dead Redemption and this guy died in the game. So basically, what it means is that if Van der Linde is alive than we might also see Jhon Marston in Red Dead Redemption 2 because Van der Linde was the former associate of Jhon in Red Dead Redemption.
As for the PC version of Red Dead Redemption 2 Rockstar parent company has neither confirmed it or denied it but says that PC is important. According to the company, the PC version of the game will only be confirmed by Rockstar Games.
Red Dead Redemption 2 is an open-world western action adventure game in development at Rockstar Games and is scheduled to launch in early 2018. The game is a console exclusive, however, according to a leak, we might see a PC port of the game.

Homemade Hemp Milk
Ladies and gentlemen, I do believe you will LOVE this easy, 3 ingredient, and pretty much 3-minute homemade hemp milk.
Many of us know because of the amount of water and energy required to grow them, almonds have gotten a bad rap lately. Yes, given the drought in California and the importance of conserving water it may very well be a good idea to pump the breaks on the almonds and almond milk/butter/etc.
But when people wax on about the problems with almond milk in terms of energy of production, I want to remind them of how much energy factory farms and industrial farming take up - like the fact that livestock pollute the air more than the "entire global transportation industry" (according to EcoWatch) or that the flagrant overuse of antibiotics and growth hormones in raising most livestock is damaging our water, soil, and bodies (and not to mention creating antibiotic-resistant superbugs).
I'm much more concerned about the environmental cost associated with factory farms and industrial-grown livestock than any little old almond.
But I digress...back to hemp milk, right? Sorry...
Ok, what I love about this is you don't have to soak the hemp seeds beforehand. You can actually just put the ingredients into the blender, strain and you're good to go. Let's get to it, shall we?
Homemade Hemp Milk
- 1/2 cup hemp seeds
- 2 dates, pitted, or 2 teaspoons of maple syrup
- 4 cups of filtered water
- (optional extra fancy stuff -- 1/2 tsp of vanilla extract, pinch of sea salt, and/or pinch of cardamom)
- place all ingredients in blender and blend well for about 60 seconds
- strain through mesh strainer or nut-milk-bag (I know, cringe) and there you have it folks.
This homemade goodness can be used in smoothies, oatmeal, homemade hot chocolate, baking, cooking, etc... and it lasts for about 4-5 days in an air-tight container in the fridge.

Three weeks ago team member Medina got a new eye. After a thorn punctured her eye almost ten years ago, Medina was blind in one eye. Apparently part of the thorn that injured her remained inside and her body tried to reject the thorn, slowly forcing it out. Medina suffered headaches and pain from the inability to fully close her eyelid and keep dust out.
After joining Girls Run 2, Medina's running dramatically improved and she grew into one of the strongest runners, her stride graceful, long, and powerful. But she was hindered by the pain and self-consciousness.
Through Coach Cintia's connections at Peltier Hospital, Medina was able to receive surgery to remove the damaged part. After the eye healed, the doctor fitted her with a prosthetic.
Pain-free and with a new-found confidence, Medina hit the roads again for training and is looking forward to returning to school in the fall, now able to ride the bus without people staring, able to study without headaches, able to run without pain.

A Great Fusion Of Art, Aesthetics & Food
The Project Café is a unique concept in the lifestyle experience space that seamlessly integrates art, design, music, culinary and literary arts and residence under one roof. We speak to Drasty Shah, CCO and Co-Founder, The Project Café for more details.
THE PROJECT Café (TPC) opened doors four years back in Ahmedabad and is so far positioned to capitalise on sustainable collaboration. It stands tall on the pillars – ideate, curate and collaborates. Having collaborated with more than 170 artists and designers to date across the globe on multi-disciplinary artistic endeavours, the café has extended this experience to Goa in November 2017.
Drasty Shah, CCO and Co-Founder, The Project Cafe converted a renovated 130-year-old Portuguese villa in Assagao—Amalia House—into an experiential design hotel to offer an experience of living in an art gallery. The boutique property has different artists working on this project and in future, Shah plans to bring on board a new set of interior designers to give each room a makeover every year.
A perfect combination of a gourmet café, restaurant, patisserie serving delectable scrumptious fare of an extensive menu of diverse handpicked recipes from across the world, the Café explores newer collaborations and creates human experience spaces. A self-funded enterprise, the Café is looking for strategic partnerships to collaborate.
In her recent conversation with BW, Shah spoke about the marketing strategy for her pet project in 2018. "We hope to attract like-minded individuals and communities from fields like hospitality, culinary arts, experiential art and design, etc, to be part of our journey; share their own journeys with us and explore the possibilities of creating collaborative experiences for the people. And we hope to achieve this all under the single roof of The Project Café," she said.
With a view to multiple The Project Cafe experience by acquiring new properties or co-hosting with others under The Project Cafe brand, Shah says, "It is more like a functional, interactive, experiential, retail and hospitality project, one of the only sustainable collaboration platforms in the country that is an actual restaurant amidst an art gallery. The goal is to bring art in daily life, taking it out of the conventional gallery space and presenting objects of beauty and aesthetics to an audience that can experience or purchase these objects."
The Project Cafe is an innovative, artistic sanctuary which has given birth to an altogether new idea that is ever-evolving. Shah along with Ekta Chopra founded The Project Cafe who turned their friendship and intellectual achievements into a distinctive idea whose long-standing excellence is evident in everything that is served. Every product ranging from a painting being hung on the restaurant to the fine plate where the guest is having their breakfast, the table where one is served at or the chair or the couch one's sitting on is on sale. The owners have a huge amount of love and respect for the makers of the objects and believe each one deserves their moment in the sun. TPC Goa is more of an art abode whose architecture will give a collective taste of a restaurant, studio, and experiential design hotel to its guests.

Toriko chapter 396 was released recently, and it left many fans disheartened as it was the last chapter of the series. The last chapter was a rather amazing one as everyone was seen living a happy life.
Here is a short recap of Toriko chapter 396.
Toriko Chapter 396 Recap
In chapter 396, few years after the grand wedding, Komatsu visited Take. It was revealed that Take managed to build a castle park which has houses for orphans to live. Take also feeds those orphans with god, and he even creates god artificially so more people can taste this amazing dish. This indicated that Take's dream about building something like this finally came true. Komatsu then got to learn that Ume is also doing pretty well with the cooking school he built.
As Ume is one of the few who have mastered creating the god, many big chefs have been visiting his academy. The latter is revealed to be teaching others how to cook god too. After a while, Take asks him if he is still going on adventures with Toriko or not, to which Komatsu replies by saying that yes. He tells him that it is still the same. Komatsu then says his farewell to take and head towards where Toriko is.
Komatsu is then seen running towards Toriko, who is revealed to be fishing. Both got a smile on their face after seeing each other and they then talked about gourmet gods. The two talked about what they can expect to see in space, while Toriko tells him what his appetite demons told him about how things were 13.7 Billion years ago, before the Gourmet Big Bang. After getting excited, Toriko takes out a Mini – Amshell, which the two used to travel into space. It was later revealed that the Eight Kings retired a few months ago, and many others are now trying their best to take their place. At the end of the chapter, Toriko and Komatsu finally arrived in space. The chapter ended with the two witnessing ingredients they have never ever seen before.
Toriko Spinoff In The Works?
The series had a pretty neat ending, but it still left many fans disheartened. However, they don't have to feel that down as according to Shueisha's 51st issue of Weekly Shonen Jump, the writer of the series, Mitsutoshi Shimabukuro will release a one-shot gag manga, which will be for May 2017. However, it will be out in April 2017. Though we currently don't know whether it will be a spin-off or crossover of Toriko, but fans can definitely expect it to be as good as the Toriko series.

RELEASE: Washington World Fellows Program meets widespread interest from students; Gathers support from Seattle Seahawks and others

Washington World Fellows Program meets widespread interest from students; Gathers support from Seattle Seahawks and others
Olympia-- Today the Office of the Lt. Governor announced that the Washington World Fellowship, a brand new equity-focused study abroad and college readiness program, received over 270 applications for its inaugural class of fellows.
The program was established as a partnership between the Office of the Lt. Governor and the Association of Washington Generals, in collaboration with Central Washington University and the Honorary Consulate of Spain.
"I'm excited that students from all over the state have shown interest in this program – from Prescott to La Push," Lt. Governor Habib said. "Study abroad changes lives. I am thrilled that this fellowship will expand opportunities for these inspirational and hardworking students."
This summer, 15-20 tenth grade students will embark on a six-week study abroad experience in Leon, Spain, where they will earn ten college credits from Central Washington University. Following the trip, students will have access to college readiness resources and other opportunities through their graduation from high school and beyond. The fellowship is offered at no cost to students.
Legislation sponsored by Senator Patty Kuderer, SSB 5746, would dedicate a portion of the Seahawks license plate proceeds to the program. The bill received unanimous approval from the state Senate last week, and is scheduled for legislative action in the state House of Representatives this week.
"The Seahawks are defined not only by their gameplay, but also by their commitment to community," said Mike Flood, Vice President of Community Outreach for the Seattle Seahawks. "The Washington World Fellows program is a fantastic new opportunity for us to promote equity and inclusion in our state by providing our most underserved students with a life-changing academic and cultural experience."
The 2018 study abroad program will begin June 30 and end August 10. Fellowship winners will be announced in March.

A British worker was tonight feared dead as 41 others, including five from the UK, were taken hostage in a raid on an Algerian gas field.
A French national and an Algerian were also reportedly killed when heavily armed militants in three vehicles swooped on a bus taking staff to an airstrip.
An al-Qaeda linked terror group claimed the attack near the In Amenas plant in the south of the country was in retaliation for French strikes against Islamist militants in neighbouring Mali.
A Downing Street source confirmed at least five Britons were among a reported 41 hostages being held inside the compound.
The source added: "A number of hostages have been taken in the terrorist incident in Algeria and unfortunately some British nationals appear to be among them.
"We are obviously working closely with the Algerian authorities to secure the safe release of the hostages."
Algeria last night ruled out negotiating with the gang and Interior Minister Daho Ould Kablia said: "The Algerian authorities will not respond to the demands of terrorists."
BP jointly owns the site, 60 miles from Libya.
A spokesman said: "Contact is extremely difficult, but we understand armed individuals are still occupying the In Amenas site."
An Islamist group calling itself the Blood Battalion was quoted by Mauritanian media as saying five of the hostages were being held at the plant while 36 were in a housing area.
It is also understood several Algerian workers were set free.
A spokesman for the terror group said: "The operation was in response to the blatant interference by Algeria and the opening of its air space to French aircraft to bomb northern Mali."
Prime Minister David Cameron today chaired a 45-minute meeting of Whitehall's Cobra emergency committee, at which ministers were updated on the crisis.
Speaking later, Mr Cameron's official spokesman said: "We are working with BP to support the families of staff and provide consular assistance."
The spokesman declined to give details of the numbers of Britons involved in what he said was a "highly sensitive" situation and whether any were killed or hurt.
Downing Street also said it was "too early" to speculate on the motive or if it was linked to UK-backed French support for Mali's fight against Islamist forces occupying its northern territories
An Irishman, 36, was also known to be among the hostages and Deputy Prime Minister Eamon Gilmore today called for his immediate release.
Mr Gilmore said: "The Government stands ready to use all the resources available to us to ensure that our citizen is released as soon as possible.
"I would ask this his family be allowed privacy at this difficult time."
