Chicago Teacher Residency™ FAQ
Application Qualifications
What makes an ideal Teacher Resident candidate?
There is no single "best" profile to become a successful teacher. The Chicago Teacher Residency seeks individuals from all backgrounds, who are passionate about transforming the educational outcomes for students in the lowest-performing schools, and are open to coaching and feedback.
What grade levels or subjects can I teach?
Depending on what degree program you choose as part of your residency, you can select grades anywhere from K-12.
As for subject (content area), Residents must have completed college-level coursework in the subject area(s) they wish to teach, in accordance with the Illinois State Board of Education standards for licensure.
It is okay to apply even if you identify missing coursework in the credit hours you have, especially if they amount to 6 or fewer semester hours. After you pass the initial screening, we will contact you to discuss options for addressing your missing coursework.
What are the minimum qualifications to apply?
To be eligible you must have:
- Bachelor's degree by June
- 3.0 GPA (Preferred)
- U.S. citizen, national, or permanent resident
- Course credits that meet the Illinois State Board of Education standards for licensure
- Valid Professional Educator's License (for M.Ed. In Urban Teaching program only)
Can I apply to if I'm already a licensed teacher?
Yes, our program is appropriate if you have two or fewer years of full-time teaching experience as a licensed teacher. The Residency program will also allow you to earn a Master's degree in one year and you will receive a year of full-time, and highly individualized mentoring and guided practice in the classroom.
I am (or will be) licensed to teach in another state, not Illinois. Can I still apply?
Yes! You will, however, need to contact the Illinois State Board of Education to request a transfer of your license to Illinois. Depending on the state you are coming from, this process may require you to pass one or more tests and you may also need additional coursework to meet Illinois requirements for your grade level or content area. Please call our Admissions office at (773) 534-0397 after you submit your online application to discuss whether you need to do anything further to meet Illinois licensure requirements.
Can I enroll to become licensed in another subject or grade-level?
No. We strongly advise against this, as you would be required to enroll in the non-licensed track, resulting in a duplication of previous courses already taken. It would be an easier and less costly option for you to contact Illinois Board of Education directly and ask about your options.
I am still in school completing my bachelor's degree, can I still apply for the Residency program?
Yes, if you receive your Bachelor's degree by the time you enroll.
I have been out of college for several years, can I still apply?
Yes! We seek passionate and dedicated individuals with a variety of backgrounds and experiences.
Do I have to live in Chicago to participate?
No. During your training year, you may live in or outside the city of Chicago. However, Chicago Public Schools requires its teachers to live in the city of Chicago, so you will need to abide by the CPS residency policy when you begin your full-time teaching career following graduation.
Teachers in a few high-need areas (e.g. special education, math, and science) are eligible to apply for a waiver of the residency policy. However, we cannot guarantee that a resident will be granted a waiver.
I currently live outside Illinois, can I apply?
Yes, we welcome applications from candidates outside Illinois who choose to make a commitment to training and teaching in Chicago for five years or more.
Do I need to be a U.S. Citizen to apply?
All Residents must either be a U.S. citizen or authorized to work in the United States to qualify for the program. Unfortunately, we do not sponsor H1B Visas.
Application Process
What is the application process?
- Application
- Online Interview
- Acceptance
- University Admittance
- Test of Academic Proficiency (TAP) exam (or waive it with your ACT/SAT score) — for non-licensed candidates only
- Enrollment
What is the application deadline?

Final: Apr. 13, 2018
EXTENDED DEADLINE: May 18, 2018
Early Movers for 2019-2020 Cohort: Sept. 21, 2018
I am unable to obtain my transcript from my university. What are my options?
Unfortunately, you will need to work with your university to negotiate the release of your transcripts. Some universities allow transcripts to be released if they are contingent on employment. Ultimately, it is the candidate's responsibility to resolve this issue and we will not contact the school on your behalf.
I only took one course at a university. Do I still need to submit a transcript from that school?
Yes. We require a transcript from all undergraduate and graduate institutions you have attended, regardless of how many credits were earned.
If I am not accepted to the program, can I apply again?
You may apply once for each program year, but you must submit an entirely new online application. We encourage you to find ways to strengthen your application (for example, complete missing coursework, obtain work or volunteer experience with urban children, etc.) when reapplying.

All residents must pass the Illinois Licensure Testing System tests required for their content area before the start of the program:
|Grade Level/Content Area
|Test Codes

We advise that you choose and register for your tests as early as possible. Applicants who take tests in by February have an advantage, because they may re-test (if necessary) to complete testing requirements in time to join the program in late June or early July.
How do I register for the tests?
Tests are administered by the Illinois Licensure Testing System (ILTS) in accordance with the requirements for teacher licensure established by the Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE). Register online.
Tests are computer-based and can be scheduled Monday through Saturday at one of over 4,400 Pearson VUE locations worldwide. The total registration fee for all 4 subtests of the Test of Academic Proficiency is $113. If taken separately (for example if you need to retake one part of the test), the registration for each subtest is $68. The registration fee for most content area tests is $122.
Send AUSL a copy of the unofficial score report that you receive upon exiting the testing center. Final scores are reported 2-4 weeks after the test date, also send AUSL a copy as soon as you receive them. (It is not necessary to request that a score report be sent to AUSL or our university partners when you register for your tests.)
Note: Fees and fee policies are established by ILTS and subject to change. AUSL does not represent that this information is guaranteed to be accurate.
Are there any study guides for the tests?
Preparing for the Test of Academic Proficiency (TAP) is critical. Fewer than one-third of test-takers pass all four sections of the TAP on the first attempt. The more you study and prepare, the greater your chances of doing well on the test.
If you need to retake a test, you must wait 30 days before retaking the same test. You will need to take the test by the end of May for the late June Residency year start. You must pass all required tests before the start of the program.

Do I have to take the Test of Academic Proficiency?
The Illinois State Board of Education allows applicants to use their ACT/SAT score in lieu of passing the Test of Academic Proficiency (TAP) for admission.
Please Note: This option is only allowed for candidates who have an existing ACT/SAT score that meets the criteria listed below. You will also still need to take and pass the appropriate content area tests.
The following criteria must be met:
- Prior to 9/1/2015 – Composite ACT Plus Writing score of at least 22 and a minimum 19 Combined English/Writing score
- 9/1/2015–9/9/2016 – Composite ACT Plus Writing score of at least 22 and a minimum 16 Writing score>/li>
- 9/10/2016 or later – Composite ACT Plus Writing score of at least 22 and a minimum 6 Writing score
(The ACT Plus Writing must be taken at the same time you receive a score of 22 or higher.)
- Prior to 3/5/2016 – Composite (Mathematics & Critical Reading) SAT score of at least 1030 and a minimum 450 Writing score
- After 3/5/2016 – Composite (Evidence-Based Reading & Writing + Mathematics) SAT score of at least 1110 and a minimum 26 Writing and Language score
- ACT & SAT: AUSL must receive your test scores by May 1 and ISBE Waiver by June 1.
Prospective candidates who wish to use their ACT/SAT score in lieu of the TAP must complete the following:
Step 1: Request ACT or SAT scores. Scan and upload a copy of your scores to the appropriate section of your online application.
STOP: Only complete steps 2-5 if and when you are accepted into the program.
Step 2: Create an Educator License Information System (ELIS) account.
Step 3: Request ACT or SAT send an official score report to ISBE. (ISBE must receive the score reports directly from ACT/SAT.) For ACT, use institution code 3001; for SAT, use institution code 6773.
Step 4: Check your ELIS account regularly to check the status of your waiver request.
Step 5: Notify AUSL Admissions once ISBE has accepted your waiver. This must be completed by June 1, 2018 for the late June start.
* Instructions for calculating your combined English/writing score
I took and passed my Test of Academic Proficiency and/or Content Area tests a few years ago. Can I use those scores?
The ILTS Test of Academic Proficiency (formerly the Basic Skills Test) scores are valid indefinitely. All versions of the Test of Academic Proficiency/Basic Skills test (096, 300, or 400) are acceptable.
Content Area test scores are valid for 10 years from the date of application for educator licensure. Since you will apply for your license in June 2019, only passing scores dated after July 2009 are eligible.
What if I don't pass the Test of Academic Proficiency or content area test on the first attempt?
You may re-take the Test of Academic Proficiency and/or your content area test(s) if you don't pass the first time. The best strategy is to invest some time to study the required knowledge before you take the test so you will pass everything on the first attempt.
May I submit an application before I register for or receive my test scores?
Yes! We will review your application before you register for your tests. Upon acceptance into the program, you will be required to register for your tests and pass them before the start of the program.
Financial Aid
Do I get paid?
All Residents receive a $20,000 stipend during their training year deposited directly to you to be used as needed (for tuition, living expenses, etc.).
What is the TEACH Grant?
The TEACH Grant Program provides grants of up to $4,000 a year to students who are completing or plan to complete coursework needed to begin a career in teaching.
As a condition for receiving a TEACH Grant, you must sign a TEACH Grant Agreement to Serve in which you agree to (among other requirements) teach in a high-need field, currently defined as:
- Science
- Math
- Foreign Language
- Special Education
- Reading Specialist
- ESL/Bilingual
- Another subject listed on the state addition list
In addition, the service must take place:
- At an elementary school, secondary school, or educational service agency that serves students from low-income families
- For at least four complete academic years within eight years after completing (or ceasing enrollment in) the course of study for which you received the grant.
NOTE: TEACH Grants are awarded on a rolling basis so the student may receive more than the annual award amount if they are eligible all four terms of their program. If you do not complete your service obligation, all TEACH Grant funds you received will be converted to a Direct Unsubsidized Loan. You must then repay this loan to the U.S. Department of Education, with interest charged from the date the TEACH Grant was disbursed (paid to you or on your behalf).
What is the Minority Teachers of Illinois (MTI) Scholarship Program?
Qualifying residents are eligible for a scholarship of up to $5,000 towards education expenses.
Should I and how do I apply for the FAFSA?
You should apply for the FAFSA as soon as possible after October 1. Gather all the necessary documents needed to fill out the FAFSA, which are listed below:

What are my student loan options?
Student loans may include Federal Stafford and Graduate PLUS loans.
Unsubsidized Stafford Loan:
- Up to $20,500 per academic year
- Accrues interest from the date of disbursement
Graduate PLUS Loan:
- Credit-based loan that can provide additional funding for educational and living expenses

During The Residency Year
When does the Residency program start and end?
It's a full academic year, which runs June to June. Courses will be in full-swing after the Fourth of July holiday, and student teaching will begin with the start of the new school year in September.
What will my schedule look like during the Residency year?
- Summer: Full-time university coursework, 9 a.m.-4 p.m. Monday-Friday at the university campus. Half of the graduate coursework for the Master's degree is delivered during the summer; it is an intense academic experience and a full-time commitment (or more). Classes are held from July to early August.
- School year: Residents work in classrooms with their mentor teacher Monday-Thursday, whenever school is in session. Fridays are dedicated to university classes.
- Summer: In mid-July, following the Residency year and Master's degree graduation, residents who will be teaching at AUSL-network schools attend professional development and planning to prepare for the first day of class.
Does the program provide housing?
The Chicago Teacher Residency does not provide housing. You are able to choose where you live. Many residents use the class Facebook group to find roommates.
What is the tuition cost for the Master's degree?
Our university partners offer attractive tuition rates for residents and financial aid is available. For the one-year Master's degree, tuition rates range from $18,250 to $19,999.
Can I choose which school I will train at during my residency year?
Residents do not choose their training site. Each site has a different mix of mentor teachers available for various grade levels and subject areas. We will choose your mentor teacher, matching each resident with the most appropriate mentor. You will learn your school and mentor assignment a few weeks after the start of the program (early August).
After Graduation
What salary will I earn after the Residency year?
Most graduating residents will be employed as Chicago Public School (CPS) teachers beginning in fall. As of 2018-19, the starting salary for a CPS teacher at a master's degree level will be $$54,161, plus pension and other benefits for a 41.6 week school year. This is more than $3,500 higher than the starting salary for a CPS teacher without a Master's degree.
What is my commitment required following graduation from the Residency program?
The Chicago Teacher Residency is designed to create a pipeline of talented, specially-trained teachers to fill positions in AUSL-network Chicago Public Schools. When you join our program, you will sign an agreement committing to teach in an AUSL school for a minimum of four years after graduation.
If you are unable to meet your commitment, you will be required to repay all or a portion of the scholarship you received during your training year ($20,000 for most residents). If a resident is not placed in an AUSL school upon graduation, becomes disabled, or if there are other special circumstances, AUSL will be flexible about repayment expectations on a case-by-case basis. (Moving out of Chicago is not considered a special circumstance.)
Am I guaranteed to have a teaching job after graduating from this program?
Placing Chicago Teacher Residency graduates in AUSL-managed schools is part of AUSL's mission. Each spring, AUSL principals observe residents in the classroom and select new teachers for their schools. However, AUSL does not force any principal to hire a teacher, so placement is not guaranteed.
For the small number of Residency graduates who are not placed in AUSL schools, AUSL provides assistance to find other positions in schools in high-needs Chicago neighborhoods. Historically, over 95 percent of our graduates are teaching somewhere in Chicago during the school year immediately following graduation.

In 2011, for the first time in nearly a century urban growth outpaced suburban growth. The notion that surburbia might not be the idyllic residential development it was once promised to be is nothing new. Dead Kennedys to David Lynch said as much decades ago, but when Time reads from the same script readers best pay attention. Suburban growth might not be what it once was, but by no means are the suburbs about to vanish. The September 2015 issue of ELLE revisits the idea of suburbia in its own way, one replete with mod styling and a dash of subversion, in a story featuring Pyper America photographed by Liz Collins. There are plenty of pastels and things powdery plush, which Pyper wears with aplomb, to make this story not only believably suburban, but delightfully so. The dash of subversion is most manifest in the cat-eye by makeup artist Ozzy Salvatierra and when worn with a hair by Maranda is positively beguiling. Let the cities grow, this America is Pyper's and Pyper's alone.
Credits include: Publication, ELLE September 2015; Title, "Beyond The Pale"; Photography, Liz Collins; Styling, Simon Robins; Hair, Maranda at the Wall Group; Makeup, Ozzy Salvatierra at Streeters for Valerie Beverly Hills; Manicure, Emi Kudo at Opus Beauty for Dior Vernis; Casting, Sisi Chonco at Zan Casting; Production, Brandon Zagha at Brachfeld LA; Styling assistance, Ahmad Francois, Erica Timm.

Ok, ok, ok... another not so 'new' but still an obsession. I bought my first print from Julia a couple of years ago and have been an avid collector (and gifter!) ever since! From East London, Julia mixes delicate and obviously painstaking details with whimsy and the most adorable ideas and words which come across, both figuratively and literally, in all of her work. Some will make you laugh until you cry and others will cut right to your heart but all are beautiful. Her work can be bought in a variety of mediums, including prints, cards and canvas bags. Whenever I have bought an item, it always arrives in impeccable time and is accompanied with little practice sketches and sometimes even limited edition prints.
Now, I just have to come up with a really good idea so I can commission something from the lovely Julia Pott :)

Eternal vigilance is the price we pay for our liberties
The cold facts of the Emergency are chilling: 34,988 people were detained under the Maintenance of Internal Security Act whilst 75,818 were held under the Defence of India rulescolumns Updated: Jun 28, 2015 09:05 IST
Forty years is not a long time to forget the most traumatic experience of our post-independence history. But, arguably, that's true of the Emergency. Declared just before midnight on the 25th of June 1975, today it's not even a memory for the majority of our countrymen. But even for those who still vividly remember it, the experience belongs to history, a past that's well and truly behind us. Or so we hope!
This is why Coomi Kapoor's book 'The Emergency' is both so necessary and also such an evocative reminder. Combining a well-researched chronological historical account with personal anecdotal experiences of the impact on individual lives, her book re-creates the 21 months of the Emergency and what it was like to live in India at that time. For the majority of you, who were born after it ended, as well as those of us who were present at the time but have chosen to forget, it's a poignant — and, dare I say, opportune? — awakening.
The cold facts of the Emergency are chilling: 34,988 people were detained under the Maintenance of Internal Security Act whilst 75,818 were held under the Defence of India rules; virtually the entire opposition leadership was arrested; the press censored; the Constitution brutally amended and, even, the Supreme Court accepted that the right to life had been suspended. The idea of India was forgotten. Or, maybe, it was no longer relevant.
Forty years later there are three lessons we need to forever hold on to. First, the Emergency was the response of a desperate prime minister struggling to protect her political career after the Allahabad High Court struck down her election and the Supreme Court only granted a conditional stay. The excuses she trotted out in its defence, even at their most accurate, lacked credibility. And if Indira Gandhi could have done this to us we must always be on our guard in case one of her successors attempts something similar. Remember, the most popular can be the most dangerous. After all, in 1971, who was more beloved than her?
The second lesson is, arguably, more necessary. The Emergency, for all its excesses, was constitutionally imposed. Like Hitler used the Enabling Act in 1933, Indira Gandhi used the provisions of our Constitution to snuff out our liberties. And what this means is a majority in Parliament is as much an opportunity for misuse of power as it is an assurance of smooth and good governance. In the hands of a strong and determined leader it could go either way.
The third lesson is one that should make you both squirm and smile. When the Emergency was declared India didn't resist. We simply gave in. Not just politicians, the judiciary and the press but us, the people of India. We buckled under. We may have sighed, we may have cried, we may even have sneaked out of harm's way but we did not fight back.
Yet when Indira Gandhi gave us the chance to vote we proved we were, ultimately, indomitable. They said the poor only care for roti, kapda aur makaan and do not value freedom of speech, habeas corpus and due process. We showed them we want both and we got both. In the end, we restored India's democracy.
I passionately hope history doesn't repeat itself and I personally believe it won't. But, remember, eternal vigilance is the price we pay for our liberties. And the most important is the right to dissent.
The views expressed are personal

Sources And Fate Of Arterial and Venous Emboli
Venous Emboli:
Sources Of Venous Emboli;
- 95 % of venous emboli arise from thrombi in deep veins of leg ( that are deep calf, popliteal, femoral and iliac veins)
- Rarely venous emboli arise from pelvic veins, inferior venacava or else where.
Some special types of venous emboli.
1. Saddle embolus.
It refers to "large snake like venous embolus that becomes coiled upon itself and impinges on bifurcation of main pulmonary artery and sits astride the two major subdivisions of pulmonary artery. such embolus is very dangerous and may cause pulmonary infarction. there is a point to be noted here that lungs also get partial blood supply from bronchial arteries which are branches of aorta hence, complete occlusion of pulmonary artery is needed to cause pulmonary infarction.
2. Paradoxical Embolus.
It refers to a venous embolus that enters from right side of the heart to the left side of the heart by passing through an intra-atrial or intra-ventricular defect and gains entry into the arterial system. such embolus is more dangerous than simple venous embolus because it may block larger arteries and may cause massive ischemia, infarction or heart failure.
Arterial Emboli:
Sources of Arterial Emboli.
1. Most commonly from intra-cardial mural thrombi
2. Mural thrombi in aortic aneurysm
3. overlying atheroseclerosis plaques in aorta
4. fragmentation of vegetations on heart valve.
1. Most commonly from intra-cardial mural thrombi

4. fragmentation of vegetations on heart valve.
Fate Of Arterial Emboli:
Arterial emboli follow a shorter course because they travel through the vessels of progressively decreasing diameter, finally lodge in a vessel of smaller diameter than this emboli cause infarction of the organ supplied. for example, if emboli enters into coronary artery, it causes myocardial infarction, similarly occlusion of cerebral artery will cause cerebral infarction.

Ghost. Lu. Patina. Sunny. Four kids from wildly different backgrounds with personalities that are explosive when they clash. But they are also four kids chosen for an elite middle school track team--a team that could qualify them for the Junior Olympics if they can get their acts together. They all have a lot to lose, but they also have a lot to prove, not only to each other, but to themselves. Ghost has a crazy natural talent, but no formal training. If he can stay on track, literally and figuratively, he could be the best sprinter in the city. But Ghost has been running for the wrong reasons--it all starting with running away from his father, who, when Ghost was a very little boy, chased him and his mother through their apartment, then down the street, with a loaded gun, aiming to kill. Since then, Ghost has been the one causing problems--and running away from them--until he meets Coach, an ex-Olympic Medalist who blew his own shot at success by using drugs, and who is determined to keep other kids from blowing their shots at life.
When it comes to providing mirrors for contemporary African American teens, Reynolds (When I Was the Greatest, rev. 1/14; The Boy in the Black Suit, rev. 3/15) has proven himself to be an emerging leader. His latest offering is the first in a projected series about four middle-school athletes and their efforts to better themselves, on and off the track. The first leg of this literary relay belongs to our title character. Castle "Ghost" Cranshaw is a young man with a taste for sunflower seeds, Guinness World Records, and people watching; he also has a proclivity for getting into trouble, fighting, and running, stemming from the night his father (now in prison) pulled a gun on him and his mother. When Ghost happens upon the citywide track team, the Defenders, at practice and impulsively bests its fastest sprinter, the coach sees potential in the seventh grader. Ghost's path to seeing the same potential in himself is littered with stumbling blocks, including a pair of expensive silver running shoes Ghost can't afford but is convinced will help him run faster. Reynolds has created a wonderfully dynamic character in Ghost; his first-person narrative is one with which young readers will readily identify. Conflicting emotions are presented honestly and without judgment--while Ghost works through the trauma of his father's violent act, he is also able to hold on to positive memories. Reynolds's introduction of the series characters--Ghost, Lu, Patina, and Sunny--will have readers rooting for the entire Defenders team.--Horn Book Magazine "November/December 2016 "

Kazan's Sketch 51
Happy Monday. I am so glad to be back to a normal week (as normal as it can be) Now that Teacher Appreciation is over I can get back to some of my challenges. I made this card for the challenge over at 2 Sketches 4 You. It is a dreary, rainy day outside so I decided to dig out my rain boots. What do you think? Hopefully I made you smile. :) I heard some great news today I have been chosen to be a part of the Pink Elephant Scrap Design Team. How cool is that? I am so excited, can't wait to get started. Enjoy and thanks for stopping by.

Location: FIC BAC
Genre: horror, thriller, historical-past, magic-science, Paris!
This is the story of Anouk and Aurélie, two headstrong, rebellious girls living more than 200 years apart, and a French chateau filled with secrets, horror and mystery.
A Drop of Night was an interesting and creepy read. The story is told in two different timelines. The first timeline tells the story of Aurélie who is living in the late 1780. Her father is building a palace beneath his palace and it will harbor a dangerous secret. The second timeline is the story of Anouk in present day. Anouk just found the perfect way to get away from her family. She was invited to join an elite group of students to help unearth a palace from the French Revolution, The Palace of Butterflies, just outside of Paris. Both of them are in for really big surprise when they discover what is lurking underground.
This story mostly follows Anouk as she began her adventure. She gets this letter and starts the testing to become part of this expedition. This letter basically gives her the chance of a lifetime to travel to Paris, all expenses paid. She should be excited at the opportunity. She isn't. She is the type of girl to question everyone. Her only reason for taking the invitation to the expedition was for the chance to get away from her family. Anouk is a girl with a chip on her shoulders. It wasn't clearly explained why, but I understood her anger. She is an angsty young adult, so she doesn't really need a reason to be aloof and anti-social. It may be the reason she was chosen for this project. Maybe.
Once they get into the palace, nothing is what it seems. There is deception and Anouk and her fellow students are hunted

Lisman and the Law
A second-generation Vermont lawyer has filled some big shoes.
by Cal Workman
Carl Lisman (second from left) was 5 years old when he decided to become a lawyer. Now, he's senior partner at Lisman, Webster, Kirkpatrick & Leckerling, the Burlington law firm founded by his father. With him are the firm's principals, Allen Webster (left), Mary Kirkpatrick and Bill Leckerling.
It was turning into a typical work day for Carl Lisman: 73 emails and 15 telephone messages awaited him and the day was just warming up. The poised and soft-spoken man appeared nonplussed. After 30 years of lawyering, the majority of that time in Vermont at Lisman, Webster, Kirpatrick & Leckerling (LWK&L), he has his daily routine down to a science.
His day, in a nutshell, goes something like this: arrive at 7 a.m., respond to emails and dictate 'til 9, return all phone calls before lunch, and spend the rest of the day meeting with clients, going to court or hearings or closings all those things lawyers do. He'll sandwich in a run and a shower if he has the time and then polish off his day doing research at the library or on the computer before bundling up a couple of hours' worth of reading material to take home with him. His workday ends "when I fall asleep," he says.
What might be a grueling schedule to many seems to agree with Lisman. The same things that lured him into practice in the 1970s hold true today.
"Lawyers advise and advocate, " he explains. "The practice of law is all about serving the needs of people. I still get a lot of satisfaction out of analyzing a problem and coming up with a solution that works my client's way through a maze and then completing it and saying, 'We did it,' and sometimes saying, 'No one else could have done it.'"
Since the age of 5, Lisman knew he wanted to be a lawyer.
"I wasn't sure I really knew what a lawyer did, but I knew it was a people business and I liked that, and I knew it was an intellectual challenge and I liked that, too." His desire to become a lawyer, he says, probably made his father, lawyer Louis Lisman, pretty proud.
Louis Lisman founded the firm in 1935 during the Great Depression as a sole practitioner operating out of the College Street building that now houses The Burlington Free Press. His brother, Bernard Lisman, joined the firm in 1946 and became a partner in 1952.
When Lisman was invited into the firm in 1972, he joined three lawyers: his father and uncle and Bob Manchester. Manchester has since left. They were primarily jury trial lawyers.
"When I joined, I said I'd do everything else," Lisman says. "Everything else" meant an ever increasing amount of non-jury trial and lawyer work focused on contract actions, family and administrative law, and business and real estate law. Ultimately Lisman found his niche in business, finance and real estate law, which remain his mainstay, even though he says in the same breath he's "part of a dying breed of generalists."
Today, 11 lawyers and 13 support staff work out of the firm's recently renovated Pine Street office where Lisman boasts "the best view of Burlington" from his fifth-floor corner office.
The medium-sized firm handles most areas of law, and each lawyer has distinct areas of expertise. Together, they cover a lot of ground, including commercial, employment, international and environmental law, contracts, corporations, limited liability companies, estate planning, immigration, intellectual property, divorce, bankruptcy, medical malpractice, partnerships and litigation/dispute resolution. While that encompasses a broad spectrum of legal areas, Lisman says the trend today is toward specialization.
He also admits he's probably "an awful business person" who would benefit from an office manager, but then he counters, "None of us got into the practice of law to be business people. We're professionals."
The firm operates with a board of directors made up of the owners. Committees within the board oversee various areas of business. Before LLWL accepts a client, it runs a rigorous check to ensure there is no conflict of interest within the firm. The case is then evaluated based on the merits of the claim.
Lisman smiles as he notes that his law office does not operate like the television shows LA Law or Law & Order. "None of those shows depict reality," he says with a chuckle. "The only thing about LA Law that I thought was real was when someone would come in with an upset stomach or a hangover. That's when they showed we are all human."
Lisman can't say how many clients the firm currently serves, but he holds up an 82-page printout that records every matter handled for active clients. Every action is assigned a number, and some client matters fill six to eight pages. Lisman says they don't shy away from controversy and are willing to represent either the "little guy or the big guy" in a lawsuit.
Eleven lawyers and 13 support staff work from LWK&L's Pine Street offices. Katina Francis (left), a lawyer, joins two of the firm's partners, Chris Jensen and Rick Kozlowski, in the library.Recreation communities, ski areas, condo and homeowner associations, lenders, securities sales people and "a bunch of regular folks who have needs, including little old ladies with simple wills," top the list of Lisman's client base. Most of his clients don't go to court. The majority get what they want through transactional work.
The office is laid out like a town square with lawyers' offices lining the outside perimeter and support staff in offices on the inside, separated by an impressive collection of framed historic maps of Vermont, the earliest dating back to the 1700s.
The firm operates with an open-door policy, which means that office doors are closed only when lawyers are with clients who require confidentiality. Otherwise the doors are open to allow free exchange of ideas and good communication.
Lisman says the practice of law is very different from when he started. Most of the change, he adds, is driven by a changing society, one that is more urbanized and populated.
"When my father practiced, it was a lot easier for a lawyer to say to someone sitting in his office, 'You're a damn fool to sue your neighbor just because a tree hangs over the line.' My father could do that, but if you were to walk into my office today and I were to say the same thing to you, I'd hear, 'Well, the lawyer next door will sue, so I'm going there.' That's most unfortunate. People say we live in a litigious society because there's so many lawyers in it. There's some truth to that, but lawyers can't sue without clients."
Lisman also remembers less paper work. Back when he was studying for the bar exam in 1970, if someone wanted to sell a piece of property in Vermont, he needed a deed and a half-page transfer tax return and that was it, he says. He didn't bother to check with the zoning office to see if there were permit issues or visit an Act 250 office. What used to take an hour's worth of work now takes three to five hours. Lawyering is a much more complex profession, he says. "We have to do things much more formally and with greater detail than in the past."
With a great deal of experience in real estate, Lisman spends a lot of time with clients on both sides of development applications. Weighing in on Act 250, he says, "When Act 250 was written, parts of Vermont worth protecting were being pillaged. I think the philosophy behind 250 is right on. Over time the playing field has tipped, and on balance, there's more scrutiny of projects that probably the writers of Act 250 never would have looked at in the same way. I've often said to folks that there ought to be two sets of rules for development in Vermont: one for Chittenden County and one for the rest of the state."
The long-term consequences of a lawyer's actions are not lost on Lisman. He takes great pains in his work to ensure there is no loophole or oversight that could unravel an arrangement in the future. In 30 years in practice, that hasn't happened.
"All lawyers worry about making sure they cross the last 't' and dot the last 'i' and think very carefully about what we're doing before doing it."
Lisman's resume of achievements is long and impressive. Born and raised in Burlington, he attended Burlington schools and the University of Vermont during turbulent national times. In his freshman year, John F. Kennedy was assassinated, and every student was required to serve two years of ROTC as part of the Vietnam War effort.
After graduation in 1967, Lisman enrolled in Harvard Law School, graduating in the top tier of his class in 1970. He passed the bar exam for New York and went to work as a clerk for the Honorable Sterry Waterman, a lawyer from St. Johnsbury who served as a judge in the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals representing the state of Vermont. Waterman impressed upon Lisman the importance of weighing carefully every action, cautioning him that "what might work now in one setting will be totally inappropriate in a year or five or 10 years from now."
After his one-year clerkship, Lisman was hired at Debevoise & Plimpton, a major Wall Street securities and banking law firm. It employed 700 people and was run by the Number Two man responsible for the rebuilding of Germany after World War II (Debevoise) and the ambassador to the United Nations (Plimpton). Lisman had been advised by professors to head for New York City, the "major league" in the practice of law.
"They said I could always leave, but it's almost impossible to go somewhere else then head for New York City. Most of that's changed now," says Lisman.
While he describes his work at the firm as "beyond exciting," the birth of his first son, Joshua, in 1972 and an invitation to join Lisman & Lisman brought him home.
Lisman calls himself part of a dying breed of generalists. When he joined his father's firm in 1972 he took on all the non-jury trial and lawyer work. These days, his niche is business, finance and real estate law. Debbie Abrams is his legal assistant."My Dad and uncle cornered me and said they were both getting to retirement age and if I wasn't planning on returning to Vermont, they'd just shut down the firm," he says, smiling. He adds "They were better negotiators than I was. The irony is, I came back and Bernard is still practicing and my father practiced 'til his late 80s." His father died two years ago.
Lisman settled in Charlotte and raised a family of four boys. His wife, Debbie, is a guidance counselor at Edmunds Middle School.
Over the years, he has run up a long list of accomplishments beyond the practice, including many volunteer community service and membership association chairmanships, 17 years lecturing third-year law students on real estate law as an adjunct professor at Vermont Law School, and active memberships in local, state and national bar associations and professional organizations. He estimates donating about six weeks of his time a year to worthy causes.
"Volunteering is important," says Lisman. "You can't live in a community and not be involved in it at some level or another."
Bob L'Ecuyer, manager of the Cairns Arena skating rink in South Burlington, claims, "Without Carl Lisman's work and effort, this community would not have this facility to enjoy." As a board member for the nonprofit recreational facility, Lisman volunteers countless hours, L'Ecuyer says, supplying legal expertise, soliciting donations, securing financing and helping out in the stands or on the scorer's bench or in the penalty box wherever there's a need always with tremendous dedication, professionalism and no expectation of anything in return.
"He is the best you can find. He's articulate, thorough and very good with people. And he's always there for us."
While Lisman nurtures his deep roots in the community, he says he is passionate about his involvement as a Uniform Law commissioner responsible for drafting uniform laws on a number of topics, such as the Uniform Condominium Act, the Uniform Commercial Code, the revised Anatomical Gift Act and the Uniform Planned Community Act. It is a high-profile position he has held since his appointment in 1976 by then-Gov. Thomas Salmon. He has been reappointed every five years by subsequent governors and has served as chairman of the Vermont delegation.
Lisman spends a week each summer and many weekends throughout the year meeting with other appointed commissioners from around the country identifying areas of common interest and writing laws on those subjects for all states to consider and enact. He spends about two weeks a year lobbying the Legislature in Montpelier, explaining the laws to committees and working toward their passage.
He co-chairs the joint editorial board for real property acts sponsored by the National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws, the American Bar Association Real Property Sections and American College of Real Estate Lawyers. A member of the college since 1983, Lisman has served on its board of governors and chaired its committee on common interest ownership. He has also lectured extensively on commercial law and the Uniform Commercial Code, corporate governance issues, resort and real estate issues and common interest ownership law.
In May 2000, to reflect the commitment of longtime partners, the firm's name was officially changed from Lisman & Lisman to Lisman, Webster, Kirkpatrick & Leckerling.
"We don't require anyone here to bill a certain number of hours or charge certain fees or bring in a certain amount of business. No one, from the most senior to junior lawyer, is obligated to perform at any particular level other than to do good work fairly and quickly. That may not necessarily be a good way to run a business, but that's how we run our practice."

Did a deep dive into ipfs last night. It has great promise.
As a first step toward using it with git-annex, I built an experimental ipfs special remote. It has some nice abilities; any ipfs address can be downloaded to a file in the repository:
git annex addurl ipfs:QmYgXEfjsLbPvVKrrD4Hf6QvXYRPRjH5XFGajDqtxBnD4W --file somefile
And, any file in the git-annex repository can be published to the world
via ipfs, by simply using
git annex copy --to ipfs. The ipfs address
for the file is then visible in
git annex whereis.
Had to extend the external special remote protocol slightly for that, so
that ipfs addresses can be recorded as uris in git-annex, and will show up
git annex whereis.

P.O. Box 1460, Wheaton, IL 60187
"The DuPage County Historical Society is a countywide, membership organization formed in 1929 to promote and celebrate the history of DuPage County, Illinois, USA. It does this primarily by issuing publications, maintaining a website, presenting programs, and partnering with other groups to support, sponsor, or host events. Membership is open to individuals, businesses, and organizations."
85 Years and Counting...
The DuPage County Historical Society was founded in 1929 by a group of DuPage County residents with a common interest in the history of the County. Their goal was to preserve and disseminate the County's history.
Another goal was to establish a museum that would be the focal point for the collection and preservation of artifacts, memorabilia, and records representative of the rich heritage of the County. In 1965, the old Wheaton Library building, the Adams Memorial Library, was purchased by Edwin F. and Lois Deicke and presented as a gift to the Society. The Society then deeded the property to DuPage County. In 1967, the DuPage County Historical Museum, a department of the County government, opened its doors. The Society was the main support group for the Museum until 2004. The DuPage County Historical Museum is now a part of the Wheaton Park District.
The DuPage County Historical Society continues to promote and preserve the history of DuPage County through publications, tours, lectures, the presentation of History Recognition Awards, and cooperative efforts with other DuPage County historical organizations. It has gained widespread recognition for its publications and historical programs and its efforts related to preserving the County's history. Its most recent publications are the award-winning DuPage Roots, the 1874 DuPage County Atlas, Bugles in a Dream: DuPage County in the Civil War, The Potawatomi Indians of DuPage County, the magazine DuPage History, and the "Historic St. Charles Road Driving Tour" brochure.
Most especially, the Society is embracing 21st century technology to further its mission. Recently, DuPage Roots was digitized and placed on this website to make the history of the county and its individual municipalities accessible to anyone, anywhere, at anytime. Future plans include updating the DuPage Roots histories and also making other out-of-print materials available on this website.
The Society is totally
dependent on the dues and generosity of Members and other public-spirited citizens.
Gifts, contributions and new memberships are always welcome.

Easter Lunch in Red Hill
This year, my family and I celebrated Easter on Saturday. We're not religious, we don't go to Church, (in fact, my younger brother, Jackson, calls Easter Sunday "Chocolate Day") but we always make sure to get together at Easter for some quality family time. It just so happened that Saturday lunch was most convenient, and so we celebrated a day early. That was fine by me, the sooner I can be with my family the better.
Friday Evening
Friday night Ben and I headed down to Red Hill for a weekend of food and cooking. We had a lovely fish dinner with mum and dad - barbequed red mullet with spicy salsa, and za'atar baked salmon. Lovely. We also sampled some of Dad's latest icecream and gelati creations - a beautiful peach and a quince scoop.
But before we left for Red Hill, I planned an Easter egg hunt of our own at our little home for two.
I even left the Easter Bunny a carrot...
Our First Morning in Red Hill
Saturday morning I woke early and went for a refreshing run, the crisp air invigorating me just as much, if not more than, the endorphins from the run itself.
How lucky I am to have grown up in such a beautiful corner of the world. I think Red Hill is at it's most stunning in Autumn, the ground is covered in blankets of orange leaves and the air is filled with the smell of overnight rain that has permeated the soil, encouraging even more vibrant greenery than usual. It really is something special.
When I bounced back through the front door, mum was already in the kitchen - always a good sign that we're in for a delicious day. A fabulous morning of baking and cooking ensued.
I so love to cook with my mum and dad in the kitchen. It's a really collaborative, lively process where we discuss the recipe and plan future cooking endeavours. This weekend surpassed all cooking expectations, it was challenging, delicious and completely and utterly blissful.
Jackson, arrived around 11am. My grandparents, Nanna and Roo, arrived at midday. We were all here...happy and hungry.
Time for Lunch
Dad made beautiful Olive Bread in our woodfired oven.
Mum had chosen Nigel Slater's Spicy Slow-Roast Lamb recipe for lunch (recipe link here). The lamb was cooked at 160 degrees Celsius for 3 and a half hours... why yes, it was. I am sure you can imagine how wonderful it was.
The lamb was served with a simple salad and lemon vinaigrette, and a beautiful cannellini bean mash.
To make the gravy, mum reduced the pan juices down with some wine. It was phenomenally rich.
Everything was scrumptious. Clearly...
After lunch, mum served cake. Delia Smith's Greek Orange and Honey Syrup Cake with Yoghurt and Pistachios (recipe link here).
This, my friends, is my new favourite cake. I am all about citrus and almond meal. This cake *deep breath* is utterly beautiful. The use of Greek yoghurt as icing is brilliant. As soon as I finished my slice, I requested it for my birthday cake...in September. I loved it that much.
And that was our lovely little Easter in Red Hill. Family, love, togetherness all served with a side of delicious. That's what it's all about, isn't it?
Lastly, I am thrilled to announce the winner of my blog giveaway. In the end I had to opt for a randomly generated number, as all your comments were so lovely. As much as I thought I could choose my favourite, I couldn't...
So, congratulations to comment #10, Laura from Heavenly Ingredients. I am so happy to send you a copy of Super Natural Every Day. I hope it brings you much joy and beautiful food.

This was my first Jonathan Carroll novel, and based on this one I'm certainly interested in reading more of his work.
Although a part of the Gollancz Fantasy Masterworks series, this is actually a character drama which slowly unfolds into a magical realism/horror story. In fact, there is no actual fantastic element introduced until well into the second half of the book, which is certainly not what one expects from something billed as a fantasy novel, and yet it works. The interplay between the characters has, fairly weak dialogue aside, a great degree of verisimilitude. One of the real strengths behind this book was that in addition to characters struggling with the discovery of magical elements in the real world, the characters are also struggling with daddy issues, self-discovery, self-empowerment, and yes, even a romantic affair (the staple of seemingly every literary fiction novel). The characters are not perfect, they battle their own flaws...just like real people.
Ultimately, this is also a book about being a reader and having a favourite author, which is something a lot of readers can relate to. When Thomas and Saxony first meet, they don't instantly fall in love, but instead form a bond based on their mutual obsession with the works of the reclusive children's author Marshall France. The novel chronicles Thomas and Saxony's quest to write the first and only official biography of France's life, and as they begin to do so, the strangeness of France's chosen home, the quiet town of Galen, Missouri, starts to become terrifyingly apparent. This is where the fantasy and horror elements creep into the story, and make for a bizarre, yet un-put-downable ending. Carroll expertly portrays the mystique of Marshall France (even including some very well-written snippets of France's books, written in a prose style completely unlike Carroll's), and makes the reader understand why his work so captivates the main characters.
This is a great book, and I was shocked to learn that this was Jonathan Carroll's debut novel. I'm looking forward to reading more of this man's work, as I feel that he made a very good start and still has a lot of runway left.

Promised by the local travel agency that the bus trip from Siem Reap to Sihanoukville should take approximately 9 hours, however, in our case more than 11 hours as the "non-stop V.I.P. luxury bus", as it was advertised, stopped a few times for god knows what reason. The entire trip the staff insisted on playing fantastically bad, and loud, karaoke videos for the locals on the bus (probably paying half the price we did). The quality of the speakers was okay on this bus compared to the one from Phnom Penh to Siem Reap, but the songs were, with no exceptions, cheesy love songs where most of the producers never even bothered to record the music by playing an actual instruments. Instead they chose to simulate an entire band by using keyboard synthesizers from the 1980s.
If I see another temple I will throw up!
Walking the worn paths of Angkor Wat is really exhausting and makes your feet hurt – which then again is a very good excuse to grab a foot massage in the evening to get some relief in the old aching muscles.
We tried to get to Chong Kneas, a floating village on Tonlé Sap Lake. You have to go there by boat, so when we got to the pier (in the middle of nowhere) where the boats embark, we were met by some of the rudest Cambodians we've met so far. With an arrogant attitude towards tourists they tried to rob us blind by charging us $35 for a 1½ hour long boat ride.
Siem Reap and Angkor Wat
Watching the Killing Fields outside Phnom Penh was depressing as expected but Tuol Sleng was actually worse. So after walking a bit around the fields paying our respects we decided to leave Phnom Penh to go to Siem Reap and Angkor Wat which everybody keeps babbling about. We took the local bus (5 USD per person) and started driving. The road to Siam Reap was really bad. Littered with holes caused by bad road maintenance and way too much traffic was the main reason the trip took 6 hours even though Siem Reap is only about 300 km from Phnom Penh. But also farmers suddenly dragging their cows across the road, hazardous overtakings by vehicles in the opposite lane, and dogs and chickens threatening to cross spontaneously caused the already grumpy bus driver to brake rather violently once and a while.
Phnom Penh
Being in Phnom Penh really isn't bad at all. The city itself is fairly modern with trendy cafés and restaurants and the Khmer people seems positive and happy even after Pol Pot wiped out a large part of the population 30 years ago. They are way better at English than the Thai and even though our guidebook advises us to stay indoor when the sun goes down we haven't felt insecure for one second. The Khmer food is also quite nice; a bit like Thai but quite different as well. They have a curry dish called Amok which we've tried so far. Not bad, not bad at all.
Island debrief back in Bangkok
It took Lisa's stomach about 3 days to get better after the food poisoning and after spending some time cursing Wunderbar we finally left Trang to go to Laoliang. We took a minivan with a sane driver to Hat Yao pier and went by boat the rest of the way. Laoliang is a national park where no one is allowed to build anything permanent that could interfere with the nature there and that meant we were going to sleep in tents. The more permanent buildings like the toilet and bar were made from wood. Climbing and snorkeling equipment was made available when we got there including a kayak but we only managed to see some fish and paddle up and down the beach in the kayak a few times.
Still in Trang
We're still in Trang being a bit stuck here. But we're still planning on going to Lao Liang tomorrow. In the meantime, check out the few mildly interesting photos from this transport hub. Pictures from Trang
Getting tired of the damned Swedish tourists who seem to have invaded Ko Lanta island, we decided to go to Railay (Rai Leh in Thai). Railay is famous for being the setting for the James Bond movie "The Man with the Golden Gun". It is a patch of land only accessible by boat or a 20 minutes climb. Railay was indeed super nice with exceptional limestone cliffs spontaneously rising from the ocean. And of course this place is apparently a rock climbers paradise with hundreds of climbing routes. We had to give it a shot of course and it went rather well. If we hadn't had an instructor to hold the safety line we would have died several times :). Lisa had to overcome her slight fear of heights, but after that everything went smoothly and it was great fun and we'll definately give it a try later on when we get to Laos.
Still Ko Lanta
Nothing new to add really except I've finally found something to complain about: Sunday when we were trying to sleep there was some party going on close to our bungalow. Damned kids with their pop music. I was about to consider shouting and threatening them with my walking cane and telling them to get off my lawn – but we fell asleep eventually.
Next day (Monday) we went to the beach to get burned off by the sun for good. We spent the entire day on a small pavilion made available by one of the restaurants (Thai Cat). Here we ate breakfast and lunch and had quite a relaxing day going from the pavilion to the beach to the sea to swim and back again.
Krabi & Ko Lanta
At the time of writing we're on Ko Lanta which is a small island 1100 km south of Bangkok. We stayed one night in Krabi which is a city mostly used as a hub for travelers moving on to the islands in the region. We arrived around dinner time, found a bungalow to sleep in, and went about 300 meters down the road before being invited to Tan's 49th birthday. Tan is the owner of a bar called "Jam Club" where we had free Thai food and grabbed a couple of beers. Maybe quite a lot of beers even. Anyway, we had a fun night where we met some really nice more or less local people, amongst these Aussie-John, the French guy Elliott, our lovely waitress Sara, and a German guy insisting on arm-wrestling for some reason (but why?!?).
First Day in Bangkok
Currently the time is 6 AM. I've been awake since 4. Damned jet lag! Wonder who is actually reading this (except you, Mom). I'll find something else and more exciting to write in the following days I guess. Today I think we're going to go see the religious part of Bangkok like temples and shrines and such. I'll go wake Lisa up now as she doesn't deserve to sleep any longer :-) That's always popular.Bangkok

Rangers Visit Jackets in Metro Division Matchupby Matt Calamia @MattCalamia / NYRangers.com
Rangers (1-3-0, 2 pts) at Blue Jackets (2-1-0, 4 pts)
7 pm, MSG Network; ESPN 98.7 FM
The Game
The Rangers will face a Metropolitan Division foe for the first time this season Friday when they visit the Blue Jackets in Columbus.
The Blueshirts are coming off a 3-1 loss Tuesday night against the St. Louis Blues. Mika Zibanejad scored his fifth goal of the season on the power play, but the team's offensive struggles at even strength continued, leading to line shuffling by Alain Vigneault Thursday at practice.
While the Zibanejad unit remained intact, Vigneault shuffled his bottom three lines and all three defensive pairs, while slotting Brendan Smith back into the lineup after serving as a healthy scratch the last two games.
Henrik Lundqvist will get the start against the Blue Jackets after making 20 saves against St. Louis on Tuesday. Lundqvist allowed two first period goals but shut the door the rest of the contest. He's 10-5-1 with a 2.87 GAA in 17 career games against the Blue Jackets.
The Blue Jackets enter Friday's contest coming off a 2-1 overtime victory against the Hurricanes in Carolina on Tuesday night behind a pair of goals by Long Island-native Sonny Milano, including the game-winner.
The reigning Vezina Trophy-winner, Sergei Bobrovsky is 2-0 this season with a 0.48 GAA and a .985 SV% with one shutout.
Columbus took the season series, 3-2, in 2016-17. Michael Grabner led all skaters with five goals and six points in the five-game series, including a hat trick.
Players to Watch
Pavel Buchnevich has done just about everything but score this season for the Rangers, and has been a key component to the team's hot start on the power play, with two of his three assists coming on the man advantage. Buchnevich said Thursday he's hoping this season goes like last, when it took him about a month to score before finding the back of the net in four straight games.
Artemi Panarin arrived in Columbus in one of the biggest moves of the offseason, when he was dealt by the Blackhawks in exchange for Brandon Saad. The 25-year-old is picking up where he left off in the Windy City with three assists in three games, though he has just two shots on goal thus far after posting 211 a year ago.
Say What?
"We have two big games coming up and the focus is obviously on tomorrow night. It's going to be a very tough test to go into a building that can be pretty rowdy and a team that's obviously shown that they've gotten better this year. We need to be ready and have our best game." - Kevin Shattenkirk on facing the Blue Jackets
"I feel like my mindset going into every game has been a lot different than last year. Just trying to get that one game at a time mentality. Score or not score, or whatever, just try and play my game and it seems to be working right now." - Mika Zibanejad on his confidence
Project Lineup
Chris Kreider - Mika Zibanejad - Pavel Buchnevich
Rick Nash - Kevin Hayes - Mats Zuccarello
Jimmy Vesey - David Desharnais - J.T. Miller
Michael Grabner - Paul Carey - Adam Cracknell
Nick Holden - Ryan McDonagh
Marc Staal - Kevin Shattenkirk
Brady Skjei - Brendan Smith
Henrik Lundqvist
Inside the Numbers
The Kreider- Zibanejad- Buchnevich line has registered 11 points (five goals, six assists) thus far this season, and at least one of the three players has notched a point on seven of the team's 10 goals in 2017-18.

This week was slightly disappointing. I was so looking forward to infinites comeback but they didn't even make it to my favorite list this week!
However there were still a few amazing new releases this week. My absolutely favorite is this girl group called Rubber Duckie with Come On. They start of really sweet but they ROCK! I can't wait to hear more from them!
Another song that really surprised me was Get Up by EvoL. I can't remember any songs from their debut album back in August 2012 which says it all, they weren't very impressive. But this song, I like it. It somehow reminds me of Christina Miliams Dip it Low. EvoL might not be as sexy as her but they have got the potential.
I was very happy to discover that Ryu Seo Kwon realeased another song called Grown Up. I discovered him while I made my first Music Monday. I am absolutely in love with his voice, and I would love to buy his full album . I unfortunately don't have a lot of money so until that time I'll enjoy his music on his youtube channel.
Last but not least I would like to mention Spacecowboys It's Over. They music reminds me a lot of Clazziquai Project while the minimalistic black and white clips give me the same vibe as a lot of W&Whale's work although they tend to be a bit more colorful. Defiantly a song worth listening too!
Listen to all this weeks favorites here.
What was your favorite song this week?
Love, Wietske

PORTLAND — Jacob Cousins was the first Jewish veteran from Portland to die in World War I, and Diane Davison wants more people to be aware of him.
"The current memorial is almost invisible; we want to provide a more dignified and appropriate setting," she said March 22.
As executive director of the Friends of the Eastern Promenade, Davison is leading the effort to raise $85,000 to renovate the space around the memorial to Cousins, near the intersection of Eastern Promenade and Cutter Street.
Cousins was serving in Company C of the Army's 328th Infantry Division when he was killed Oct. 14, 1918, in the Meuse-Argonne offensive in northern France. He died less than a month before the Armistice essentially ended combat, and was one of 1,032 Mainers and 67 Portlanders to die in the war from 1914-1919.
Dedicated in September 1935 by Jacob Cousins Post No. 99 of the Jewish War Veterans of the USA, the memorial was expanded later to include seven other Jewish veterans killed in World War II.
The two plaques on a boulder sit between two shrubs and are easily overlooked, said Davison and Richard Bornstein, another supporter of the renovation.
Bornstein never got to know his uncle, Louis Lane, who was killed in May 1945 in the first rush of Marines invading the Pacific Ocean island of Iwo Jima.
Bornstein said his mother, Beatrice Bornstein (Lane's sister), liked to visit the memorial. Ultimately, the site became inaccessible as she aged.
"It is a place everyone can go and appreciate; it is underserved," Bornstein said March 22.
Now he and his family are the first to contribute $5,000 to name a bench, one of seven to be added to the area. The renovation plan also adds rhododendrons to a semi-circular viewing area envisioned as a place of reflection and contemplation.
"We wanted to be a lead sponsor and just get the ball rolling," Bornstein said.
Davison said the Friends are about halfway to the funding goal, including a $10,000 donation from the Davis Family Foundation. More information and online, tax-deductible donations can be made at www.easternpromenade.org.
The memorial renovation is part of the master plan for the Eastern Promenade, for which the site plan was created by landscape architect Martha Lyon, Davison said. Lyon created the renovation plan for nearby Fort Allen Park, so the memorial site will have continuity with the fort.
Davison said the goal is to complete fundraising by early summer and complete the renovations this year. The renovation plan has already been vetted by the city Historic Preservation Board.
Bornstein approves of Lyon's plans.
"It is a beautiful open concept that meets all historic guidelines, I'd just like to give someone like my mother the ability go there and reflect," he said.
The Jacob Cousins Memorial, seen March 22, was dedicated in 1935, then a second plaque was added for Jewish veterans who died in World War II. Friends of the Eastern Promenade want the memorial to be more visible and accessible to visitors.
Plans to improve the area around the Jacob Cousins Memorial on the Eastern Promenade include better visibility, benches and improved accessibility for visitors.

Furosemide Potassium for Fluid Retention
Furosemide potassium is a physician endorsed solution that is given to individuals who are experiencing genuine instances of edema. Edema is essentially fluid retention inside the body and is described by swelling on the influenced regions. There are fundamentally two manifestations of edema – summed up edema and restricted edema. With summed up edema, about the entire body experiences swelling because of fluid retention. In restricted edema, just certain parts of the body have swelling because of fluid retention. Furosemide potassium is utilized for, for example, Furosemide potassium is diuretic in nature and will pass off the abundance fluid into the pee. In short, when you are given Furosemide potassium, you will have the incessant urge to urinate as the overabundance fluid in your body is generally emptied off into your pee.
Under typical circumstances, specialists don't promptly give Furosemide potassium to their patients. Rather than Furosemide potassium, they give their patients Lasix tablets which they can take even at home. Contingent upon the seriousness of the fluid-related swelling and the general wellbeing state of the patient, the specialist may build the Lasix measurement and the recurrence in which the patient needs to take it. On the other hand, if the specialist considers it is important that the patient needs to be admitted to the clinic for legitimate mind and observing. In the event that this is the situation, it is likely the patient will be given Furosemide potassium which will be infused to them intravenously. The dosage for Furosemide potassium is on a for every patient premise and reliant on their needs and reaction.
Despite the fact that furosemide or Lasix is thought to be an exceedingly endured medication, there are sure events wherein a few patients may encounter a few types of symptoms. It is vital to comprehend that Furosemide potassium at high measurements and delayed treatment might really bring about significant diuresis, an aggravation in the electrolyte adjust inside the body. Such may accidentally cause hypotension and arrhythmias. Other unfavorable responses of Lasix admission, whether Furosemide potassium or pill structures are: queasiness, regurgitating, drying out, hypokalemia, and urticarial. Uncommon instances of symptoms may incorporate aplastic sickliness, leucopenia, and agranulocytosis. Touchiness to furosemide, the dynamic fixing of Lasix may obtain anuria or the non-section of pee, perhaps because of renal disappointment.
Patients that are diabetic ought to abstain from taking Lasix in light of the fact that utilization of this medication might really diminish their resistance towards glucose and potentially considerably bring down their metabolic control. Patients then again who have high danger of procuring diabetes might really kick off their diabetic condition through Lasix utilization. It is critical that patient with diabetes or the individuals who have high dangers of procuring the condition ought to abstain from taking Lasix and to advise their specialist about their condition so they won't be given any Furosemide potassium if they have any manifestation of edema.
Since Lasix, whether Furosemide potassium or the pill structure, has different medication collaborations, it is essential that you counsel your condition first before taking this diuretic pharmaceutical to keep away from and keep any further confusion with respect to your fluid retention issue. Various medication communication with Lasix and Furosemide potassium may prompt harmfulness. Despite the fact that demise is not known, it is more astute to just counsel your condition before Lasix admission to keep any genuine damage on your part. Breastfeeding ladies ought not take Lasix or Furosemide potassium for comparative reasons.

So it is yet another Friday night and once again I've not had time to think up a post. Not only that, but my son refuses to settle down to sleep so I cannot even concentrate for the constant whining and talking in the background. Seems like I'm going to have to settle for a short update to the Minimalist Game instead. If you haven't yet read last week's post about it, here it is: http://vintagehew.blogspot.com.mt/2016/11/lets-play-month-long-game.html
Today is the 18th of the month so as you can guess, I should have posted a pic of 18 items to give/throw away/sell in the private group on Facebook where I am playing the game. However since the number has started growing, so has my struggle with finding enough items to shoo out of the house. I have managed to keep it up till now, only once resorting to listing the items I gave away before the 1st of the month. It could be that I don't have that many extra or useless things in my life, which is very true if I compare myself to most people living in the First World and who are not living below the poverty line. Then again, I am sure that there are many things that I could easily give away and never miss but which I struggle with for one reason or another. I noticed that at times the reason is that I'd love to keep them for my 'ideal' self, the one I dream about, who does things I think would be interesting or fun or relaxing, but which truly will probably never really happen. It seems to me like that is my major issue with stuff. I don't mind giving things away that cost me money to start with if I know that they're obsolete in my life anyway. I also rarely have qualms about removing sentimental items from my life. But when it comes to the items belonging to my wanna-be self, boy do I struggle! So maybe I should remind myself more often to embrace the Me that I am, rather than the fantasy one that is not really Me at all at the end of it.

Stratford really is a picturesque place and, as I am hoping to join a group of artists there ( http://www.gallery96.com/ ) I hope to grease the rails a bit by plugging their lovely town. If you've never been there, you're missing a jewel.
I live about a half hour (by car) or around 2 hours (by horse and buggy), so it shouldn't be a problem making meetings and such. Twice before, I was invited to show my paintings at group showings and was impressed with the quality of the work this group manages to put on display regularly.
