Senior Cohousing or Family-Sized Units—The Plans to Redevelop the Hill East Boys and Girls Club
After releasing the Eastern Branch Boys and Girls Club at 261 17th Street SE (map) for an OurRFP in April, the Office of the Deputy Mayor of Planning and Economic Development (DMPED) is looking forward to finding a developer for the site — especially after extending the submittal deadline to ensure greater competition for the site.
Two proposals are now on the table and both prospective development teams met with the Hill East community recently to present their proposals to redevelop the site. UrbanTurf summarizes those proposals below.
Capitol Hill Cohousing for Seniors
Century Associates, Eco Housing Corporation and Keystar Real Estate are proposing to adaptively reuse the existing property to deliver a mixed-use cohousing community for seniors. The interior of the building would be retrofit into 29 independent living units of various sizes and two apartments for caregivers.
The exterior skin and massing would be retained, with a green roof and solar panels added. Employing universal design principles, the plan would deliver private dwellings with shared common areas to encourage interaction and communal participation in places like the dining room, lounge with television, music room and game room.
The unit mix will include six one-bedrooms (one for households earning up to 50 percent of area median income (AMI), one for households earning up to 80 percent AMI and four at market rate) and 23 two-bedrooms (three for households earning up to 50 percent AMI, four for households earning up to 80 percent AMI and 16 at market rate).
EDG Architects is the designer for the team and Capitol Hill Village is a nonprofit partner.
Family-Sized Units For-Sale or For-Rent
Morningstar Community Development, affiliate contractor MCN Build and designer CGS Architects are also proposing an adaptive reuse of the existing building, creating 31 apartments that skew larger than typical new developments.
The area on-site which was already excavated to accommodate a pool will be converted into space for below-grade parking; there will also be two community spaces on this lower level. Above will be 8 one-bedrooms, 12 one bedroom plus dens, 9 two-bedrooms and two, three-bedroom units.
If the 31 apartments end up being rentals, three will be for households earning up to 30 percent AMI, seven will be for households earning up to 50 percent AMI and the remainder will be market-rate. If the 31 apartments are listed for-sale, five will be for households earning up to 50 percent AMI, five will be for households earning up to 80 percent AMI and the remainder will be market-rate.

Two defeats in a row haven't been enough to dampen the belief Steve Kinniburgh has in his Corby Town squad.
Up until a couple of weeks ago, things were looking rosy in the Steel Park garden with the Steelmen unbeaten in the Evo-Stik League South League Division One Central and sitting on top of the table.
But, in the latest example of how quickly things can change in football, Corby have now suffered back-to-back losses.
They were beaten 2-1 at fellow high-flyers Peterborough Sports and then turned in a dreadful display as Thame United claimed a 3-1 victory at Steel Park last weekend.
The performance, which resulted in Corby dropping to third place in the table, left Kinniburgh far from impressed.
But he still firmly believes his young squad have what it takes to enjoy a sustained challenge at the top end of the table.
The Steelmen will be hoping to get back to winning ways when they take on Aylesbury United in a second successive home game at Steel Park on Saturday.
And Kinniburgh said: "We have got plenty of characters in there who can change games in an instant, we have got leaders in that changing room.
"I am not going to change my opinion, I think we have players who are more than capable of having a long season challenging at the top of the league, I have no doubts about that.
"It's the little mentality things that we have got to get better at because we haven't got a team that is full of experienced players who have been there and done it.
"There are boys at the start of their careers who might want to progress further up and they have got to understand that to do that, you have to have a set standard.
"And when you do have an off game, you have to think about the work-rate, the tactical understanding and the intelligence of the game.
"But when we get that, we will have everything in the locker.
"When you are at this level, you are not going to have players who can do it all.
"You will have players lack in this or lack in that.
The Steelmen will again be without right-back Miles Smith who sits out the second of a three-match suspension.


Snow squalls will move across north-central Maryland, northern Virginia and the Washington, D.C., metro early Saturday morning.
Heavy snow is expected in these snow squalls and may quickly reduce visibilities. A quick half inch of snow can be expected through the morning.
The winds are expected to be strong and gusty with wind chills near or below zero.

The lands which are now Dixie County have a rich history. With the Steinhatchee River on the west and the Suwannee River on the east, it was prime land for the Native Americans and early settlers.
According from one source, the first white man to come to the Dixie area was in 1820, a young man named George Miller who was from North Carolina.
He became friends with Suwannee and Bowlegs, Native Americans, and sons of Chief Tigertail and his wife, Suwannee, of the Seminole tribe, who settled in the region around Lake Miccosukee near what is now Tallahassee. With the blessings of the Indians, Miller settled in the area. He planted corn and peanuts and raised cattle and hogs. Ten years later he was to die from malaria and buried into what is now known as Old Town.

World history supporting ship history
Carol Comegno
@CarolComegno
CAMDEN — Books on the history of two great world powers are helping to keep the history of the USS New Jersey alive.
A co-author of "America Invades" and "Italy Invades" recently came to the Battleship New Jersey Museum and Memorial bearing both books and a gift for the ship.
The gift: 40 percent of the book sales at the ship's store will be donated to the museum.
"We're happy to support the ship museum," said co-author Christopher Kelly, an American who splits his time between London and Seattle. He collaborated with Londoner and Cambridge University classics scholar Stuart Laycock on both books.
The writing duo also supports other military charities such as the USO, the World War II Museum in New Orleans, and the Wounded Warriors Project. Kelly tours the U.S., holding book signings and talks, often at historic venues.
The "America" book does not directly address the history of the Battleship New Jersey — the most militarily decorated in U.S. naval history — but it does address the development of U.S. military branches and their use in various county chapters.
War-winning battleship guns sit in field
The subtitles tell the overall theme of each book. "How We've Invaded or Been Militarily Involved With Almost Every Other Country On Earth" is the subtitle of "America Invades," the first of the two books. "Italy Invades: How Italians Conquered the World" is the second and also addresses Italy's predecessor, the Roman Empire.
Reviewers and critics have acclaimed the two literary works as entertaining history, witty, brisk and chatty, fascinating, arresting and eye-opening.
The books are not presented chronologically, unlike the usual history book format. Instead, history is told by each country that was invaded or which saw military involvement from these superpowers. Lacing the facts together are anecdotes and information about wide-reaching U.S. and Italian influences — on and off the battlefield — and from those in the military.
"This format by country is unique," Kelly said at a recent book signing aboard the battleship. "You can see right away that the U.S. has reached almost every country in the world. And considering the Romans never knew the New World existed, they conquered much of the world they knew about, invading 50 countries."
The invasions in both books begin with Afghanistan and go to the end of the alphabet with Zimbabwe.
"The Italian Christopher Columbus (Cristoforo Colombo) changed the world," the book explains, "and the Romans brought literacy with them. Even Napoleon of France was ethnically Italian and also held the title of king of Italy."
The Emperor Hadrian built a great wall in Israel that still stands and which has been the subject of more recent inspection using modern technology to determine how it was built and how it has endured time and earthquakes.
The three-word Latin cry of Julius Caesar, Roman emperor from 49 BC to 44 BC, was, "Veni,Vidi, Vici (I came, I saw, I conquered) and he did just that. In 1870, Italy even invaded the Vatican, ending the papacy's secular power though its religious authority continues today.
Pine Barrens mysteries come to life in new book
The Roman Empire brought hygiene and rabbits to England as well as Christianity; an Italian officer founded the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
"One of the secret weapons of the Roman military were the Roman baths built in and outside of Rome to provide hygiene for its soldiers, who enlisted for a mandatory 25 years and were not permitted to marry," said Kelly, who married an Italian and is a former chairman of Chyron Corp., with a longtime passion for military history.
The American book recounts how President Abraham Lincoln even tried to recruit Italian general Giuseppe Garibaldi, who unified Italy during the American Civil War.
Donna Klees, the battleship's retail store director, is impressed with the books.
"What really hit me is that are so many interesting facts presented about culture that were interwoven into the history, like how the Romans brought culture to the world," she said of the Italy book. "It was not just 'Oh, Italy invaded this and that country.'"
Kelly said Italy, though much maligned since its World War II disaster when it formed an alliance with Nazi Germany, said its thousands of years of prowess cannot be ignored. "Italians have, sometimes peacefully, sometimes militarily, transformed the world."

Following the hit vinyl release on Vanina Hänin, Lagarderes Pharaoh returns digitally, with a massive high quality musical treasure, bringing you exclusive new remixes from visionary talented artists - Paris The Black Fu (aka Detroit Grand Pubahs), Lad, Davidovitch and Dave The Hustler - opening again the Pharaohs secret tomb filled to the brim with more shining golden electronic gems.
No need to mention that on top of this stands the original mix - if you missed it, dont cry, it is still rolling on this deep fat bass colored by arabic percussions, along with a crazy unforgettable synth main theme that will take you on an hypnotic dancing journey - on its side, Touanes remix (already featured on the vinyl release), revisits the Pharaohs secret pyramids stone corridors and rooms, with a tough techno track slowly developing to reach an unpredictable climax with - just maybe - the pharaoh himself, whispering through crispy hi-hats and spiraling basses.
Four stunning additional visions take part to the Pharaohs final procession.
Lads electronica remix, takes you on an abstract hip-hop mad trip, pitching up and crushing down Pharaohs original material in a highly personal and stupendous music piece unveiling yet unknown sound dimensions, while Davidovitch explores the untold secrets carried by the desert wind in a haunting dubby remix rolling on a deep, mental, soulful, hypnotic melodic bassline - that only he knows how to cook - spiced up with cristal percussions and organic waves enlightening the sky as the warmness of the day gives place to the mysterious coldness of the night.
Paris The Black Fu (aka Detroit Grand Pubahs) hits the floor with a pumping powerful techno track, breathing like an unstoppable industrial steam metal machine moving through magma deserts, operated by thousand of sweating bodybuilders & space galerians. And finally, Dave The Hustler invites us to an arabic electronic belly dance performance, one night in Cairo, faithful to his pumping compositions and to his drum programming & unbeatable style. Danceable till the sun rises up and goes down again and again on the cityscape.
Definitively a highly recommended release for an exciting, mad and unique electronic summer journey!

Tape and Gauze. Boxers prefer to use a combination of athletic tape and gauze to wrap their hands before a fight. The gauze can be placed in such a way to provide a …... For the area where you're going to hang your boxing bags - you want enough space ideally to hang both a heavy bag and a double end bag so you don't have to interchange them when you want to use them. Each requires enough distance around them to ideally allow you to circle each bag 360 degrees.


After practice today (9/26/18) I noticed my room key was missing as I was going back to my room. I went back to Simon Forum to see if I left them on the ground where I left my sport gear but I couldn't find it. Last I saw them was at the very end of the Simon Forum, the farthest location on the ground level away from the doors leading outside, right in between the extendable bleachers and the track. There is only one key on the end of the standard green Drew lanyard that all the freshman were given. If anyone finds it, has already found it, or accidently took it thinking it was their own please contact me a dgulbinmurphy@drew.edu.

Home>Music> Lil Baby's "My Turn" Earns Most Weeks At No. 1 On Billboard In 2020
Lil Baby's "My Turn" Earns Most Weeks At No. 1 On Billboard In 2020
By Karlton Jahmal
It really is his turn.
Lil Baby cannot and will not be stopped. Arguably the most successful of the latest school of talent, Lil Baby continues to dominate Billboard. He just spent his fourth straight week at number one with the album My Turn. The album now has five non-consecutive weeks atop Billboard. That is the most of any artist in 2020 so far.
My Turn debuted at the top spot in March, but spent a few months charting in various other positions before returning to number one in June. The album drew in 70,000 equivalent album units this week. The Weeknd's After Hours had four weeks at number 1, losing the 2020 dominance competition to Lil Baby by just one week.
Lil Durk's Just Cause Y'all Waited 2 rose from number 56 to number 2 with 43,000 equivalent album units. This is in large part due to a re-release deluxe version. DaBaby's Blame It on Baby took number three with 40,000 units.
Of course, Pop Smoke's latest release is positioned to knock Lil Baby out of the top stop next week, and subsequently affect some other artists at the top of the charts right now. As we reported, Shoot For The Stars Aim For The Moon is anticipated to move between 175K-195K equivalent album units, of which 27-30K are from pure sales. The album is predicted to hit 200 million streams.

Offer birds a charming place to rest and dine with the Home Bazaar Gazebo Bird Feeder. Crisp white railings around the base of the feeder and white rafters on the roof contrast the natural color of the wooden shingles for a delightful and understated feeder. The hexagonal base offers plenty of room for a few birds to perch and dine at once, and the six seed ports allow it to easily empty from the reservoir. Clear plastic panels form the hexagonal seed tube, which can hold up to 1 quart of mixed seed. The attached nylon cord allows the feeder to be hung, and two wooden pegs underneath the roof keep it secure when hanging. Lift this roof upward to easily refill the item. The wooden construction adds a natural feel, for a wonderful addition to your garden. Feed birds with ease using this Gazebo Bird Feeder.
Note: Should you want to preserve the finish (paint) of this feeder, you should select a polyurethane product that is recommended for marine use (UV Rated) that will not turn the white paint yellow. You should expect that once left outside, the product will weather and require refinishing.


L.A.'s No Win is the solo power pop project of Danny Nogueiras (he gets help from his friends for the stage). You might know him from his time drumming in FIDLAR but if you did know that it's best if you forget it because No Win doesn't sound like FIDLAR.
No Win played their first ever show in the summer of 2015 A.D. (and have subsequently played shows with good bands like FIDLAR ((of course!)) and Quarterbacks and others I have yet to write about for I am only one man) so there's still plenty of time to get in on the ground floor of this musical goodness.
The band recently released their debut EP and you can stream the entire thing below. I hope you like strong melodies and solid jingle jangle and a few well-placed "whoa oh ohs" to keep things positive and sunny and bouncing.

L'identificazione della sua presunta città natale, Lescura, è ignota. Vi è una Lescure nell'Ariège, Aveyron e Tarn. In base ai riferimenti contenuti nella sua opera, lo storico Alfred Adler lo colloca alla corte di Alfonso VIII di Castiglia (che lui chiama "imperatore") e in Catalogna.

Il solo lavoro di Uc esistente è un sirventes, "De mots ricos no tem Peire Vidal", che inizia con un Gab in cui proclama la sua superiorità rispetto a otto dei suoi trovatori contemporanei: Peire Vidal, Albertet de Sestaro, Perdigon e Aimeric de Peguilhan, così come altri ignoti, Arnaut Romieu, Pelardit e Gualaubert. Il resto della poesia è un feroce attacco alla morale del baronato alla maniera di Marcabru. La rima, il metro e la melodia della composizione sono copiate interamente da un lavoro di Peire Vidal, Anc no mori per amor ni per al.

Sirventes
             De mots ricos no tem Peire Vidal
             ni'N'Albertet de sa votz a ben dir
             ni'N Perdigon de greu sonet bastir,
             ni'N Pegulhan de chansos metre en sal,
             ni de gabar sos chans N'Arnaut Romieu
             ni de lausar Fonsalada son fieu,
             ni'N Pelardit de contrafar la gen,
             ni'N Gualaubet de viular coyndamen.

Q: How does scrapy accomplish cookie communication When I'm writing scrapy framework, I come across a website that needs to be logged in. I want to request the cookie value in middlewares, so that the crawler can determine whether it needs to log in and retrieve the cookie value by the response status value.
I've tried to write the login code in process_response in middlewares to get the cookie after login.
middleware.py
def process_response(self, request, response, spider):
    print(response)  #但是这里不输出
    if len(response.body)<200:
        cks= self.get_cookies()
        request.headers['Cookie']=cks
        return request
    else:
        return response

items.py
class EsasentinelmissionItem(scrapy.Item):
     # define the fields for your item here like:

     item=EsasentinelmissionItem()
     for url in urls:
          item['url']=url

I want to know cookie delivery intelligence in scrapy.

We've all seen those promotions that companies use to try and attract new customers – gifts, cut rates, special offers, etc. Those kinds of efforts are great and there is a place for recruiting new business, for sure. But what about your current customers, those folks that have stuck with you through all the economic ups and downs, those donors who give a little each year? They are your most valuable assets, and they deserve stewarding and attention.
1) Thank them. You know your customer base. If they'd prefer a handwritten postcard, send one. If they're e-savvy, send an email. If they patron your store often, thank them in person. It doesn't matter how you do it. Just thank them graciously for sticking by you and patronizing your business when they know there are other choices.
2) Ask them. You can do this formally, via a survey or focus group (with a small gift incentive), or informally, when you see them. Ask them what they like best about your services and products and what could use some improvements. Thereafter, listen to what they say, implement the necessary changes, and go back to the customers to let them know you've made the improvements they suggested.
Of course, before you can do any of these things, you have to know who your repeat customers are. If you don't, start collecting information to find out. If there's no way to assess that through receipts and other records, go by memory. When customers come in to your place of business, ask them if they've been there before. If so, ask if you can take down their contact information so you can send them special offers, or, offer them a "member" card. This is exactly what all the big chains are doing – they give you a logo card and scan it every time you go to their store so they can keep track of how often you shop there and what you buy. That way, they can customize their offers to you, and track who their loyal customers are. Punch cards and frequent flyer programs achieve the same thing. It matters less what method you choose and more that you have an effective way to identify, track, and care for your loyal customers.

Korsun-Shevchenkivskyi Raion  was a raion (district) of Cherkasy Oblast, central Ukraine. Its administrative centre was located at the town of Korsun-Shevchenkivskyi. The raion covered an area of 896 square kilometres. The raion was abolished on 18 July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Cherkasy Oblast to four. The area of Korsun-Shevchenkivskyi Raion was split between Cherkasy Raion and Zvenyhorodka Raion. The last estimate of the raion population was

At the time of disestablishment, the raion consisted of four hromadas:
 Korsun-Shevchenkivskyi urban hromada with the administration in Korsun-Shevchenkivskyi, transferred to Cherkasy Raion;
 Nabutiv rural hromada with the administration in the selo of Nabutiv, transferred to Cherkasy Raion;

Obituary for Theresa Beauregard
Theresa Beauregard passed away at the home she had known for more than seven decades on October 26th, just shy of her 95th birthday. She was the youngest of eight children of Albert and Alfonsine (Lafortune) Coutu. On Sept. 2, 1946, she was united in marriage to Francis "Pete" Beauregard. The couple worked and laughed together for 64 years, until his death in 2010. Together, they raised three sons while operating the family's chicken farm in Taftville. Theresa delighted in her volunteer service at The William W. Backus Hospital for 20 years. She enjoyed being the "queen of the family pool," Sunday-morning trips to Foxwoods, and a friendly game of cards with relatives and friends. Theresa is survived by her sons: Robert A. Beauregard and his wife, Delina, of Baltic; Thomas A. Beauregard and his wife, Cynthia, of Norwich; and Peter J. Beauregard and his wife, Lori, of Houston, Texas; six grandchildren: Bryan, Devin, John, Tim, Jennifer and Rebecca; seven great-grandchildren: Hannah, Dylan, Max, Brice, Hailey, Brooklyn, and Mackenzie; and numerous nieces and nephews. She was predeceased by her granddaughter, Traci Fargo. The family is grateful to the care and devotion provided by Theresa's caretakers, Cheryl Merritt and Dorothea (Dottie) Scott. There will be no calling hours and burial will be private. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the charity of one's choice.

Водопьяново — село в Еланском районе Волгоградской области России, в составе Березовского сельского поселения.

Население —

История
В Списке населённых мест Саратовской губернии по данным 1859 года значится как село Водопьяново (оно же Старый хутор). Согласно Схематической карте Аткарского уезда 1912 года Водопьяново обозначено в границах Лиходеевской волости. Согласно Списку населённых мест Аткарского уезда 1914 года (по сведениям за 1911 год) село населяли преимущественно великороссы, всего 565 мужчины и 573 женщины. В селе имелись церковь и церковная школа

В 1921 году Лиходеевская волость перечислена из Аткарского уезда в новый Еланский уезд. В 1923 году в связи с упразднением Еланского уезда волость включена в состав Еланской волости Балашовского уезда

В 1928 году Водопьяново включено в состав Еланского района Камышинского округа (упразднён в 1930 году) Нижне-Волжского края (с 1934 года — Сталинградского края, с 1936 года — Сталинградской области). В 1953 году Лиходеевский, Водопьяновский и Ерешковский сельсоветы были объединены в один Лиходеевский, центр село Лиходеево, однако в списке населённых пунктов 1964 года значится в составе Терновского сельсовета. В 1982 году село Водопьяново было передано из Терновского сельсовета в Березовский.

География
Село находится в пределах Хопёрско-Бузулукской равнины, являющейся южным окончанием Окско-Донской низменности, на реке Берёзовой (левый приток реки Терсы), на высоте около 130 метров над уровнем моря.

Почвы: чернозёмы южные и чернозёмы обыкновенные.

По автомобильным дорогам расстояние до областного центра города Волгоград составляет 340 км, до районного центра рабочего посёлка Елань — 17 км.

As the round-robin section of the Ford World Women's Curling Championship approaches its conclusion, all the remaining games will be strongly contested, as not only playoffs spots are still up for grabs, but also Olympic qualifying points are at stake for all teams. One example of this was the game between the Czech Republic and China, neither of whom are going to medal this year.
Canada, Korea and Sweden share the top spot – each on seven wins - after 14 sessions of round-robin play at the Ford World Women's Curling Championship in Lethbridge, Canada. In Wednesday afternoon's session, Canada had to come from behind to beat Germany, and a score of three in the sixth end transformed the game for them.
After twelve sessions of round-robin play at the Ford World Women's Curling Championship 2012 in Lethbridge, Canada, four teams – Canada, Korea, Sweden and Switzerland - now share top spot.
After eleven round-robin sessions of the Ford World Women's Curling Championship 2012 in Lethbridge, Canada, Korea are the somewhat unexpected table-toppers, on six wins and just one loss.
Canada survived a strong challenge from Russia to win by 7-5 in Tuesday morning' s ninth round-robin session of the Ford World Women's Curling Championship in Lethbridge, Canada to once again sit alone at the top of the rankings, on five wins and just one loss.
Canada lost their unbeaten record when they went down by 7-9 to Denmark after an extra end in Monday evening's eighth session of round-robin play at the Ford World Women's Curling Championship in Lethbridge, Canada. The hosts now share top spot with Korea and Sweden on four wins and just one loss. Denmark made all the early running in this game.
Canada retained their unbeaten record and top spot in the rankings with an 8-7 win over the Czech Republic in the seventh session of round-robin play at the Ford World Women's Curling Championship 2012 on Monday afternoon, but they had to fight all the way back from giving up a score of five in the second end to do so.

They cannot play politics, they are lazy Politicians – Joe Igbokwe blasts APC critics
Akelicious — June 19, 2021 add comment
The Special Adviser to the Governor of Lagos State on Drainage, Mr. Joe Igbokwe has used his Facebook page to slam the critics of the APC-led government. In politics, it is expected that each opposition party would compare their achievements side-by-side to gain credibility and popularity among the masses.
The APC-led Government under the Administration of President Muhammadu Buhari has been continuously criticized by the opposition party, PDP. The Peoples Democratic Party feels that the high level of insecurity in Nigeria is a result of the incompetence of the current Administration, while the current Administration is of the view that they inherited the high level of insecurity from the past Administration.
Without a doubt, the politics of Nigeria is base on who can survive several punches dealt at it by Nigerians. Though both parties have not delivered to Nigerians what they promised at the polls, the members of both political parties have always try to exonerate their party over the others.
This was the case with Mr. Joe Igbokwe who took to his Facebook page to slam critics who are fond of playing down the achievements of the APC-led government.
According to him, he said, "they cannot play politics, they cannot build bridges, they cannot do decent engagements, they are lazy Politicians, they are timid in everything. No competence, no understanding, no love."

Alan's Favourite Music of 2018
I love end of year lists, whether it's Mark Kermode's Top 10 movies of the decade (or the much funnier Worst 10 of the decade), John Linneman's nuanced games of the year for Digital Foundry, or whatever The Guardian have posted this year that makes me feel out of touch.
Lists get a bad rap as low-effort, Buzzfeed-esque thought aggregators, but I love the mental flux when the ranking starts. What moved me? What kind of art do I value, and why? And of course, the most important question: what's the riff of the year?
Disclaimer: this list is right today and wrong tomorrow. Also, if you don't understand the difference between facts and opinions, you have come to the wrong place. New for 2018: listen along to my favourite tracks of the year with this Apple Music playlist! (whitelist us with your ad-blocker if you can't see it; we don't show ads).
10. Luca Brasi – Stay
There are two kinds of punk rock bands: those who grow out of it, and those who never grow up. I saw The Offspring at Good Things Festival a couple of weeks ago, and they fell into the latter category.
Songs like Self Esteem, All I Want and Pretty Fly (for a White Guy) are an awkward kind of classic: fine when they're crystallised in the 90s, embarrassing when performed live in 2018 by geriatric rockers. Don't get me wrong – The Offspring are still fun! – but when you listen to albums like Splinter and Rise and Fall, Rage and Grace, you feel sorry for their attempts to stay relevant, tragically expressed through yesterday's sentiments.
Luca Brasi's Stay is an album about growing up and growing old, a further evolution of the melancholic thought cloud that hung over If This Is All We're Going To Be. On first listen, there's a lack of punk rock bangers – although you can still find them in 'Time Flew', 'Clothes I Slept In', and 'Bastard' – but on further reflection this an album about transitions, about wanting to move forward while still clinging onto the past, "all the love and the bullshit highs and lows, and the in-between".
9. Kalmah – Palo
Finnish swamp-metallers Kalmah return with their first album since 2013's Seventh Swamphony (yes, really). I've always had a soft spot for their take on melodeath, and Palo doesn't do anything to mix things up. But wow, is this thing ever fun!
From the opener 'Blood Ran Cold', Palo takes your breath away: it's tight and focused, but it knows not to take itself too seriously. The best example of this is 'Take Me Away', arranged around a world-beating riff: they nail it technically, then add little flairs like the silly lyrics and piano harmonies to elevate it to something much more interesting.
If you think you can only stomach one track, check out 'Waiting in the Wings': metal served ice cold through a wind tunnel, music that gets your head banging and fists pumping, but with a swagger and silliness that's so much better than the po-faced metalcore chugging that passes for music these days.
8. Rise to Fall – Into Zero
If you're a lapsed In Flames fan lamenting how they've regressed from Gothenburg's finest export to a band whose sound grows less metallic and ever more questionable with each new album, then you really need to check out Rise to Fall. They pick up where the In Flames sound faded out and run with it, and their previous album End vs Beginning remains invigorating years after its release.
Into Zero follows the well-worth path of bands like Soilwork and Disarmonia Mundi: songs that hit heavy before rising to anthemic choruses and flighty, intricate guitar work. Rise to Fall add just enough of their unique flavour through Spanish-accented vocals and soaring riffs to stand apart in a not-that-crowded landscape. The Gothenburg sound may be out of fashion; Into Zero suggests it may have found a new home in Bilbao.
7. Skyharbor – Sunshine Dust
I've been following India's best (only?) metal band Skyharbor since their 2012 debut Blinding White Noise: Illusion & Chaos featuring Daniel Tompkins of Tesseract on the first disc and some sublime guest solos from Megadeth's Marty Friedman.
Sunshine Dust replaces Tompkins with Eric Emery and they sound, unsurprisingly, a lot less like Tesseract. Emery has an impressive upper range reminiscent of Kyo on tracks like 'Blind Side': he gives the band the character they need to evolve their sound into something with more diversity and edge. Much of the album plays it enjoyably safe, and the front half is better than the latter half, but 'Dim' is an outstanding opener. Monuments' Phronesis was another album on my longlist this year, but Sunshine Dust pips it to the post for the best djenty album of the year.
6. Kingcrow – The Persistence
Do you ever find yourself listening to something, unsure of how you discovered it? This year's "where did that come from?" album is Kingcrow's The Persistence, which I can only assume was an Apple Music recommendation that became the soundtrack to a stormy Wednesday working from home.
Ethereal prog rock in the vein of Leprous or Soen, yet with its own unique quirks like the unusual vocal delivery and song progression, The Persistence is my pleasant surprise of the year. 'Closer' and 'Folding Paper Dreams' are early highlights but the best track is probably 'Father', which starts out haunting and ends up rocking as hard as anything I've heard this year. Not bad for a band that don't even have a Wikipedia page!
5. Amorphis – Queen of Time
It wouldn't be an Alan's Favourite Music roundup without the new Amorphis album, since they've been predictably excellent for well over a decade now, but any suspicions of predictability melt away from the opening riff of 'Daughter of Hate' and are blown away by the delicious saxophone solo. Maybe I could have been a rock star after all…
Queen of Time doesn't deviate from the winning Amorphis formula of earworm hooks, machine-gun riffing and big choruses that remains relentlessly enjoyable, but is now polished to perfection. Although I do wonder if, similar to Mastodon, the almost radio-friendliness of Queen of Time comes at the expense of the interesting rough edges from albums like Skyforger. Still, there's no doubting the quality of 'The Golden Elk', 'Wrong Direction', and 'Amongst Stars'. Another outstanding Amorphis album for your next rockin' road trip.
4. Omnium Gatherum – The Burning Cold
I saw Omnium Gatherum live a couple of years back with the other 'Three Ums', Ensiferum and Insomnium. They put on a decent show, but as with their studio albums, it was hard to escape the feeling that they hadn't yet reached their prime. Tracks like 'Frontiers' from Grey Heavens were agonisingly close to greatness, but not quite there. What a delight to listen to The Burning Cold and realise that they've finally nailed it.
'Gods Go First' is my kind of heaven from the opening riff to the face-melting solo, and will be the mainstay of my running playlists long into 2019. The Burning Cold is consistently blistering throughout with 'Over the Battlefield' and 'Driven by Conflict', but my personal favourite is probably 'The Fearless Entity' – a downright beautiful song that I didn't know Omnium Gatherum had in 'um.
3. Alkaline Trio – Is This Thing Cursed?
Alkaline Trio? In 2018? I'm as surprised as you are – they haven't really grabbed my attention since 2003's Good Mourning. When I saw them in Oxford a few years back, unfamiliar with their recent releases, the songs felt a bit tired and predictable. They had the sharpness but lacked the flavour, like swapping vinegar for sulphuric acid.
Is This Thing Cursed? falls somewhere between a nice surprise and a fucking miracle. It has the riffs! It has the sardonic, pitch-black lyrics you know and love! It has songs about love, drugs, and loving drugs! It's got it all, folks!
Aside from the obvious choices for top tracks – 'Blackbird' conjures up old 'Private Eye' memories, 'Demon and Division' is a great rock song anyone could enjoy – I love 'Sweet Vampires', which captures the classic Trio sound and macabre wordplay, and 'Goodbye Fire Island', a subtly angry track with fat riffs straight out of a 2004 Millencolin album.
Is This Thing Cursed? is a real treat. Not quite a blast from the past, it's got a fresh feeling as exhilarating as when I first listened to Alkaline Trio back in 2001. Sounds like the curse has lifted.
2. The Ocean – Phanerozoic I: Palaeozoic
If you lined up every metal band on an intellectual continuum, you'd have boneheads like Disturbed and Five Finger Death Punch floating on the surface shouting about fighting people, and The Ocean deep in the hadopelagic, singing about… well, the hadopelagic.
Phanerozoic I: Palaeozoic, as the title suggests, isn't exactly easy listening. This is music on the scale of epochs: songs with power, intensity and depth that tell stories other genres don't attempt. Sure, there's a place for meatheaded moshing and silliness in metal, but there's also room for something more, something worth savouring.
Palaeozoic has five real (and really long) songs: 'Cambrian II' is an epic opener, probably the heaviest on the album, but with little glimpses of levity that keep it from feeling oppressive. After it, 'Ordovicium' is practically a light interlude. 'Silurian: Age of Sea Scorpions', aside from having the best name of any song in 2018, reminds me of an Mastodon track with its sludgy riffs and technical drum breakdowns.
But the masterpiece of Palaeozoic is the astonishing 'Devonian: Nascent', featuring guest vocals from Jonas Renkse of Katatonia. This 11-minute track starts with Renkse's soothing vocals over a crackling drum track, gradually rising and falling like the ages of the Earth, exploding around the six-minute mark, then at seven minutes dropping to a sturdy bass rhythm, like you've just watched a fireworks display but can still feel the reverberations. After that, it crescendos again to a crushing finish.
Then you've still got 'Permian: The Great Dying' with its haunting beauty that echoes the themes of Eternal Recurrence'. It's wonderful. And it was almost my favourite album of the year, but something came a little earlier that I loved just a little more.
1. Haken – Vector
Every year there's an album that redefines what heavy music means to me, something that expands the boundaries and deepens my appreciation of it. In 2014 it was Ne Obliviscaris' Citadel; in 2015 Leprous blew me away with The Congregation; all five Cast Iron listeners will remember 2016's Vessels by Be'Lakor; and in 2017 Caligula's Horse released In Contact, (although I didn't listen to it until 2018 – just as well I skipped the writeup, eh?)
This year, there was… nothing that raised the bar or revealed the illusion of the self, but still an album that has stuck with me since October – Haken's wonderful Vector.
Haken (rhymes with 'bacon') have only been around since 2007 but made a big impact with 2013's The Mountain. 2016's Affinity was a fascinating departure from Dream Theater-esque prog metal into 80s prog rock, but it was perhaps a little too long and overwrought for its own good.
Vector has taught me that while metal can be moving, transcendent, thoughtful, complicated, technical, and mind-melting all at the same time, it can even do all of that in 45 minutes (their debut, Aquarius, runs for 72!), without trailing off in the back half. It's surprisingly taut for a prog metal album, where 'prog' usually means 'twice as long, three times the time signatures, six times as pretentious': while Vector has its share of complex tracks in 'Puzzle Box' and 'Veil', they're the exception rather than the rule.
A prog metal album anyone can get into? How refreshing!
Even the shorter tracks like 'The Good Doctor' are meaty, intricate compositions whose short length doesn't compromise the intrinsic progginess. The 80s electric drumming of Affinity is back, dialled down to add just a little texture. Ross Jennings' vocals are better than ever and serve to better complement the music rather than getting lost in it. Later in the album, 'Nil by Mouth' is one of the best instrumental tracks I've heard in years. 'A Cell Divides' sounds like a turbocharged Leprous track. There's just so much to love in here, and don't be fooled by the 'short' length – there's a lot to digest too.
While Vector might not top The Mountain (your life is incomplete without Cockroach King) it's easily my favourite album of the year.
Riff of the Year
Kalmah – 'Take Me Away', Palo. A swaggering, triumphant riff that builds in power as it goes through the chorus, bridge, and solo. Just sublime.
Honourable mentions for Amorphis – 'The Golden Elk', Primordial – 'To Hell or the Hangman', Rise to Fall – 'Survivor' (wait 20 seconds – holy shit!), Omnium Gatherum – 'The Fearless Entity'.
Han Solo's Solo of the Year
Hi folks, Han Solo the misanthropic cat here! I love guitar solos as much as I hate humans, and that's a whole lot!
My favourite solo of the year is Omnium Gatherum – 'Gods Go First', The Burning Cold. The second solo starts around 03:15 but listen to the whole song. Just purrfect!
The runner up is Kalmah with 'Waiting in the Wings' (02:30 onwards), Palo. This whole song is on the cusp of being ridiculous, which of course is what makes it so fun. I like to think of this song when I'm sinking my claws into the leg of a passerby. Don't look at me like that, I got here first.

Just like women, men too, like to dress up! Wedding seasons or ethnic festivities (Diwali, Ethnic Day at office, Onam, name it all), men want to look classy and stylish, driving them to experiment with the different traditional and ethnic outfits, and browse through various styles and trends to create their unique style statement. They always want to pick out something than the usual ones.
With the Indian ethnic clothing scenario being very rich and elegant, men have so many different options to choose from, like Sherwanis, kurtas, jackets and more, be it for weddings, religious events or simple family get-togethers.
So here is comprehensive guide of the different types of ethnic and traditional dresses for men, from formal to casuals for different occasions or ceremonies in India.
In the ethnic game, the kurta-churidar combo definitely has more fans than any other ethnic outfits among men. Apart from being extremely comfortable, it is easier to wear and style and hence is a popular choice among men.
The best part about a kurta churidar is that it is extremely versatile, from being your savior for an Ethnic day or Diwali celebrations at office to wearing it to your cousin's Haldi ceremony!
Moreover, if you feel that your solid colored kurta is too bland and boring, you can easily pull on a printed jacket or use a elaborately decorated brooch and maybe a turban in a contrasting shade and Juti to complete the look.
Just like the kurta churidar, the kurta salwar is another great combo that provides lot more comfort along with style. The salwar, being much more of a loose fit and a bit baggy, provides a totally different look. There are even Patiala kind of Salwars, as well as salwars with embroidered patterns or gold or contrasting borders to create a modern or contemporary look.
The groom's favorite, the classic Sherwani! Usually worn for a grand affair, from simple ornate ones to Indo Western exquisite and designer wears, today, there are so many different varieties of sherwani, in myriad fabrics, that it has become difficult to choose one. Sherwanis, originated as the northern Indian dress for the Mughal royalty, have evolved to wedding wear for men in the modern day.
More so often, they come accompanied with a safa, churidar/dhoti pant styled bottoms as well as a dupatta.
A variant of the classic Sherwani, is the Achkan Sherwani, which is a perfect choice to make a style statement. It is a dapper and fashionable attire that can add jazz to your looks. It is one of the most popular choices in sherwani that anyone would love to wear on their wedding day to make it classic. This knee-length coat is more trimmed and fitted to give a compact masculine look. The main difference between sherwani and achkan lies in their length, fabric and the massive flare from the waist. The sherwani is little longer than the achkan and is more flared from the waist till the bottom.
Tip: If you are of a short stature, then Achkan is a good choice than the normal Sherwani that needs you to be slightly on the taller side to be able to carry off the flare and length.
Often referred to as the prince coat, a bandhgala has now become a must-have in every man's wardrobe. It will lend you a sophisticated yet masculine look, be it for a wedding or a celebration dinner with family.
The ultimate benefit of owning a bandhgala is that it can flatter any body type and promises a royal look. To achieve the original look of a bandhgala, one needs to be extremely particular about getting the right cut and fit. It should always be like second skin. The length is ideally dictated by the body type.
Moreover, you can easily accessorize it with a brooch, pocket square or turban with kilangi.
Tip: As a general rule to follow, the length of the suit should end just at the root of the thumb while the arms rest against the body.
The Pathani suits are among the most stylish and popular mens ethnic clothing which can be worn on all occasions. This ethnic and elegant outfit exudes a sense of style and class. The traditional suits feature simple kurtas with front buttons and stand collars. However, the modern suits feature beautiful embellishments with stylish collars in so many different shades and fabrics.
An amalgamation of Indian and Western styles, resulted in a category of their own, popularly known as the Indo Western style outfits. They feature the usual ethnic attires with a western twist, like asymmetric or cowl hemlines, exquisite collar designs, printed long coats etc. They have become hugely popular in the recent times with more young men opting for these contemporary outfits.
Named after Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, these mandarin collared vest jackets, are a trendy and one of the 'must haves' in a man's closet.
Nehru jackets can easily compliment each and every look flawlessly and is capable of taking your traditional look to a whole new level. They can transform your outfit instantly and making you look ethnically fashionable.
Always dreaded the dhoti falling off in the middle of a function or a wedding? With the introduction of dhoti pants, you can bid adieu to that fear. While you can just slip it on like any normal pants, it has the flare of a dhoti giving the illusion that you are actually wearing one. Available in so many different shades and fabrics, you can easily team it up with a bandhgala, kurta, Sherwani or Nehru jacket for a style that will surely make heads turn.
Tip: Choose in contrasting shades to the kurta.
Kerala Dhoti or Mundu is a popular attire, in the regions of Kerala and Tamil Nadu. Despite the considerable influence of Western dressing, mundu still garners all the love and attention among the men here. It is not just for ceremonial and customary purposes, but men find it easy and comfortable to wear it on a daily basis. No traditional occasion is complete in Kerala without wearing the mundu, that is usually doubled and draped around the waist.
Available in fabrics like khadi, silk, dupion and cotton, they come in shades like creme, ivory, off white,and white, with borders in gold, silver and other shades.
If you thought accessories were a women's domain, then you are completely wrong. In fact, today, men have a number of accessories to choose from, that they are literally spoilt for choices.
Accessories are a game changer! They are capable of creating a huge impact on a man's outfit and his sense of style. But having said that, you also need to exercise caution to ensure that you are not overdoing it.
So here are some of the top accessories that men could use to their advantage and elevate their ethnic look. So men, be ready to grab some attention!
Turbans play an important role especially during the wedding festivities. And today, it is all about doing it in style. Turbans are a long colorful clothing material, used as a headdress for men, manually tied. In the recent times, ready made turbans are easily available and spares you the trouble of mastering the art of tying them right.
On the other hand, Safas are a shorter and broader version of a turban and much fancier. They usually have more embellishments and small fan like pleats stitched on top.
You can easily compliment your attire, be it Kurtas, Sherwani, Jodhpuri suits or Nehru Jackets, with contrasting coloured or floral patterned turbans to create a style statement.
They are not just for women. Even men can wear it and flaunt it with ease. A stole or dupatta is usually a narrow long piece of clothing, with tassels. It maybe of crushed silk or dupion fabric and is mostly worn by men around the neck or across the shoulders towards the front.
Most of them are single coloured like black, white, red, etc with a tinge or border of gold, and look classy when paired with the right kind of outfit like Kurtas, sherwani, achkan and other indo western outfits during any celebrations, wedding, or festivities.
Kilangi/Kalangi is an accessory that is worn on the turban during a wedding or any such occasion. A royal mark of honor, mainly made in metal and embellished with stones, precious gems, beads and feathers to give you men that rich look and grandeur.
It ideally adorns men's turbans and you can even take i to the next level by pinning it on Sherwani or bandhgala suits as a brooch as well.
How to identify: the pocket square is mostly for show, and belongs in the jacket breast pocket. It is normally made of silk, cotton, satin or dupion and is small enough to be folded without creating a bulk. Often confused with handkerchiefs, this is another classy accessory that can create a fashion statement. They instantly add the dapperly charm to any look.
Ideally, choose them in contrasting shades to sport with Printed or solid jackets, nehru jackets or bandhgala suits (with pockets), for weddings, Sangeet, or any festivities.
A slip on style shoe, usually with a flat sole, and are similar in design for both women and men, except for men, they have a sharp extended tip, nokh curved upwards like traditional mustaches, and are also called khussa. These were considered ceremonial kind of shoes and appeared in rich embellished designs or elaborate patterns.
They are best suited to be worn with Kurtas, sherwani, achkans, dhoti pants, jodhpuri suits, for any ethnic celebrations, Weddings.
A brooch is nothing but a sparkly or embellished pin style accessory that is meant to be placed on the lapel of your coat or jacket. It may be further styled with beads and jewels hanging from it. The most desired brooch on a sherwani or other Indian wedding outfit is the floral designed brooch. Brooches made of precious gems are also available and this can make your outfit even richer and can transform simple attires into opulent ones.
You can wear a brooch with Jackets, especially plain ones, nehru jackets, bandhgala or jodhpuri suits and sherwanis.
Weddings, sangeet, and other similar celebrations are a great opportunity to bring on some brooch swag!
With every passing day, more and more styles and trends are being introduced in men's ethnic wear. Do you think we have missed out on something? Let us know through your comments.

Bronx man cuffed for brazen rape attempt at Upper East Side train station (UPDATE)
By Robert Pozarycki

Detectives have arrested a Bronx man who allegedly attempted to rape a woman at a Upper East Side subway station on Saturday, only to be stopped when a group of passengers intervened.
Jose Reyes, a Bronx resident, was picked up by members of the 23rd Precinct at 12:29 p.m. on Aug. 30 at the corner of Lexington Avenue and East 105th Street in East Harlem, according to Chief of Detectives Rodney Harrison.
Three tips to the NYPD's Crime Stoppers hotline proved instrumental in helping police locate Reyes, Harrison said during a press conference Sunday afternoon. He also touted the use of the NYPD's facial recognition program, which matched an image of Reyes' face on the video to his mugshot from a prior criminal mischief arrest.
Law enforcement sources said the attempted sex assault happened at 11 a.m. on Aug. 29 at the Lexington Avenue-63rd Street station.
According to Harrison, the 25-year-old female victim had originally encountered Reyes while on board an F train prior to its arrival at Lexington Avenue-63rd Street. The chief said Reyes allegedly acted in a disturbing manner, including laughing at himself and making weird noises, while looking at the victim.
Upon arriving at Lexington Avenue-63rd Street, both the victim and Reyes departed the train. Harrison said Reyes then began following the victim as she moved down the platform, eventually catching up with her and going on the attack.
Reyes allegedly punched the woman in the face, then knocked her to the ground, climbed on top of her and attempted to rape her.
But other passengers nearby began forming a crowd; some began screaming at Reyes to stop, Harrison said. One of the individuals pulled out their cellphone and recorded the suspect, while on top of the victim, being startled.
"Some good Samaritans pulled out the cellphones to video his face, which was very informational," the chief said. "A couple of them started screaming at him to get off her, which was helpful in scaring him away."

The incident was reported to the 19th Precinct and the NYPD Transit Bureau. Cops said the victim suffered minor injuries, but refused medical attention at the scene.
On the morning of Aug. 30, the NYPD released video footage of Reyes. Upon receiving tips from the Crime Stoppers hotline, and confirmation through the facial recognition program, the 23rd Precinct moved to pick up Reyes in East Harlem Sunday afternoon.
Harrison said Reyes was taken without further incident and brought to the 23rd Precinct for questioning. The suspect allegedly admitted to detectives that he committed the crime, and was found to have narcotics in his possession, the chief noted.
"It's a heinous act," Harrison said of the crime. "It's horrible but I have to commend the great work by Special Victims, our Facial Recognition Unit, our technology which sometimes gets challenged. In a quick manner, we got the information out to the people on patrol and to bring him into custody. It's a great team effort getting a very bad individual off the streets."

I have been creating artwork since I was old enough to pick up a crayon. My artwork at times reflects my natural morbid curiosity, while other times it reflects a childlike whimsy, and of course, my love for glitter. I am currently working on several pieces at once that will incorporate each of those attributes, either separately or as a whole.
My goal is to blend all aspects of my personality into my artwork in a cohesive, creative way.

A woman who referred to herself by the first name of Alana, held a sign outside the ARC bookstore today to protest the Dakota Access Pipeline.
Protests in North Dakota near the Standing Rock Indian Reservation has drawn international attention in response to the people who are protesting the pipeline construction.
Alana, who refused to give out her last name for fear of being threatened or harmed in the future due to her protest, said her motivation was to make students aware of what is going on.
A recent CNN video showed law enforcement officers firing rubber bullets, tear gas and high pressure water at the crowds protesting the Dakota Access Pipeline on Sunday.
"Police had thrown a concussive grenade into the crowd and it hit her arm and blew a part of her arm…she had to get it amputated off," Alana said about the news coverage of the pipeline protests.
ARC students and spectators Joe Shannahan, James Wilde, Abdul Hamid, and Dalton Douglas-Hiley had their own responses about Alana's protest.
Alana decided to hold her protest today because she wanted to leave students with something to think about over Thanksgiving break.
Joe Shannahan reacted in support of what Alana was accomplishing as she held her sign in protest.
James Wild, commenting on the protest said it was strange to see the sign, but he understood the purpose.
"Curious would be my first reaction after I read it," said Wild. He expressed his appreciation of living in a place where we can express our opinions.
Many students who were curious about the sign, came up to Alana to talk to her and question the purpose of it.
"A few women have come up to me, and pretty much every response has been positive," Alana said, also commenting that her protest could benefit others.
Shannahan, along with three other men at the scene also commented to Alana's protest.
Although Alana's protest was brief, by standing up and raising awareness to the event happening in North Dakota, she demonstrated that students have a voice on campus.
Alana said that although she is not a native person who is being affected by what is happening, this was not her first time protesting.
"This isn't the only one, it's just specific because Thanksgiving is coming up," Alana said.
Alana said that she has protested for Gay Pride and the Anti-Trump rally's. She plans to travel to North Dakota in the summer and offer whatever help she can.
"I'm actually heading down to North Dakota once finals are over to try to bring some supplies over to them, even though I'm (just) going for a weekend… I'm trying to donate what I can," Alana said.

Wow! Impressive. This is an example of how ONE person can change the world!
God bless you, Alana! You are truly transforming the evil on this planet with your goodness; you are the change in the world.


Pace hopes by spring to have twice as many riders commuting on express buses that use the newly widened shoulders of the Stevenson Expressway to maneuver around traffic jams.
Gov. Pat Quinn, transportation officials and legislators hailed the start of the service next Monday on U.S. Interstate Highway 55 as a landmark step toward reducing the Chicago area's congestion, the nation's second-worst.
"We're very hopeful about this (project) and we think it has the potential to be expanded" on the tollway, Quinn said Monday at a news conference at the University of Illinois at Chicago Pavilion.
Quinn said he anticipated express buses would someday be riding in their own dedicated lanes on the Jane Addams Memorial Tollway (Interstate Highway 90), as the Illinois Tollway has proposed.
Under the two-year pilot program, a first for the Chicago area, buses on the Stevenson will be able to use designated stretches of shoulders during weekday rush hours.
The goal is to improve reliability and speed up commuting times by allowing the buses to bypass stalled traffic on the often-jammed expressway.
Officials also hope to take cars off the road by luring commuters with amenities on the coach-style buses, including free Wi-Fi.
Pace Chairman Richard Kwasneski said the suburban bus agency wants to double the number of riders now using the routes.
"We hope the word gets out," Kwasneski said.
Route 755averages 41 riders per weekday on two rush-hour inbound and two outbound trips. The route operates between Plainfield and Bolingbrook and the West Side's Illinois Medical District.
Route 855 averages 291 riders per day on six peak-hour inbound and six outbound trips. The route serves Plainfield, Romeoville, Bolingbrook, Burr Ridge and the Chicago Loop.
As part of a $35 million resurfacing of I-55 this summer, about 15 miles of shoulders were upgraded. But three stretches remain where the shoulders are too narrow for buses.
Buses will only be allowed to use the shoulders when traffic in the regular lanes is traveling at less than 35 mph. When using the shoulder, the buses cannot travel faster than 35 mph, or 15 mph faster than traffic in the regular lanes, whichever is less.
Officials said Illinois Department of Transportation crews will step up clearing debris off the shoulders. State police will watch for vehicles who try to illegally use the shoulders, but motorists will still be able to use them in emergencies.

Coordinating her daily outfits is an opportunity for Issraa Faiz '15 to experiment with new fashion trends while incorporating tradition and personal values.
"I absolutely love fashion," said Faiz. "I think it's one of the most effective ways for people to express themselves. When I was younger, I wanted to be a fashion designer, and I had binders full of my designs. I still design outfits for fun when I have free time."
Faiz can be seen sporting a pink sweater dress with a navy down vest, shimmering tights and black leather boots or a monochromatic geometric top combined with a blue, lace-trimmed tank top and a soft beige cardigan, always tied together with a bright headscarf.
This headscarf, called the hijab, is a unique part of Faiz's style. Some Muslim women choose to wear the garment as a symbol of modesty.
"The point of the hijab is to make people respect you for who you are and not how you physically look," said Faiz. "This is not to say that one can't wear pretty outfits or anything. The hijab is just meant to put emphasis on what is inside the person instead of what one sees. Contrary to popular belief, wearing the hijab is a choice, and I choose to wear it because I like what it stands for."
On any given day, Faiz might don a blazer and pants, leggings and an oversized sweater or a short printed dress with knee-high boots. A true fashionista, Faiz effortlessly combines on-point trends with neutrals. One of her favorite outfits is a colorful flowing top with a leather jacket over it, paired with white skinny jeans, wedges and a bright patterned scarf.
"I kind of just like to play around with colors and trends and see what I think works well. I make sure my outfits look put together even if I am not. I try to go for classy outfits with a little bit of flare to keep things interesting," said Faiz.
According to Faiz, she coordinates her outfits with vibrant scarves and chooses different colors depending on her mood. With a total of over 30 scarves of various shades and patterns, it is never a challenge for Faiz to match them perfectly with her outfit for that day.
"I put a lot of effort into making sure my scarves work with my outfits. I think of them as my perfect accessory. Sometimes I'll even plan outfits around the scarf I chose for that day or vice versa. I literally go shopping for scarves with certain outfits in mind. I make sure my scarves always match, even if it's with the outfit I'm wearing to the gym," said Faiz.
"Issraa keeps it classy with the way she dresses. Her scarves add a pop of color to her outfit and are a great accessory," said Julia Zell '15. "If anyone knows how to rock a scarf, it's Issraa."

Hotel Kaiserhof w Katowicach (pol.: "Dwór Cesarski") – hotel w Katowicach przy ulicy Stawowej 19, na rogu z ul. Młyńską. Hotel wraz z kamienicami przy ul. Stawowej, znajdującymi się za skrzyżowaniem z ulicą 3 Maja, wyburzono w latach sześćdziesiątych XX wieku na potrzeby budowy nowego dworca kolejowego.

Budynek posiadał hełm. W hotelu (na drugim piętrze) od 1894 mieściła się siedziba loży wolnomularskiej "Concordia". W literaturze XX wieku pojawiały się informacje, że w dniach 6–11 listopada 1884 w hotelu odbyła się Konferencja Katowicka – zebranie żydowskich delegatów Ruchu Miłośników Syjonu – Chowewej Syjon, na którym podjęto decyzje o założeniu nowych osad żydowskich w Palestynie. Informacje te są nieprawdziwe, ponieważ w 1892 istniał dopiero projekt budynku. W tym czasie właścicielem parceli i zbudowanego na niej hotelu był aptekarz E. Schultz. W dwudziestą piątą rocznicę tego wydarzenia w budynku zorganizowano uroczysty jubileusz.

W latach międzywojennych pod numerem 19 istniał bar "Carioka" i kino "Stylowy" oraz restauracja "Ziemiańska". W 1920 przebudowano lożę "Concordii"; prace przeprowadziła firma Ignatz Grünfeld Baugeschäft według projektu katowickiego architekta Hugo Grünfelda. W tym czasie właścicielem hotelu był Leo Kaufmann.

Obiekt zburzono w latach 60. XX wieku, pod budowę nowego dworca kolejowego. Następnie w miejscu hotelu wybudowano Galerię Katowicką.
