It does take a village!
2011-12-19 07:43:00 First there were Sit-Ins and then… Baby Boomers continue to redefine the stages of life. They’ve done it since 1947, and the evolution of the “Village” concept which began in Boston and has since grown (rapidly) across the United States is the latest example.

Festival and Street Fair in Kathu Village
2011-07-22 02:18:00 Last weekend (15th - 17th July) we had a street fair and cultural festival in Kathu. I should explain what "Kathu" is - probably means nothing to most people. Surely this place is called Phuket? Yes, but Phuket is a big island and Kathu is one of the 3 districts of Phuket Island, the other 2 being Muang and Thalang. Kathu district is pretty big, it includes Patong Beach and Kamala Beach, and the area inland between Patong and Phuket Town which is called Kathu (subdistrict) - this being where we live. Kathu was the center of the tin mining industry in the 19th and early 20th century. The old part of Kathu village where this festival took place is still very quiet and features a large Chinese shrine which plays an important role in the Phuket Vegetarian Festival (which starts September 26th this year). This was the 3rd year for the Kathu village festival and it was much bigger this year, and much more heavily promoted. In 2009, I saw the signs up and went to have a look, being very s...

Tale Of A Village Called SnapDeal.com Nagar
2011-06-15 10:45:00 How many of us have tried to help a village in distress. Most often our government or NGO’s dives in to perform some welfare program. But this time one of the e-commerce company called Snapdeal.com has taken initiative to provide basic amenities, proper infrastructure, etc. to a village in Uttar Pradesh. Scarcity of water is one of the existing issue in India, and Snapdeal.com is on it’s way to install water pumps to provide clean drinking water. The e-commerce company is also said to extend support towards local schools and hospitals. As a token of appreciation the villagers have decided to change the name of the village from Shiv Nagar to Snapdeal.com Nagar. It will be interesting to see in coming days more and more e-commerce company or maybe mobile apps might join this cause… Just imagine in coming days different names our villages going to have.

New "uber-cool" contemporary condos in East Village
2011-05-25 06:48:00 The infill new construction 3-flat has a Pythonesque motto: "I ain't dead yet." In fact, the market for smaller developments has been somewhat strengthened by the general market downturn. Developers have been able to acquire land and depressed prices and offer new construction at prices that are highly competitive with resale units. One type of development that has show strong appeal to recent buyers is the "as is everything upgrade imaginable" condo where the developer has already included all of the options that a buyer might have wished for. A new East Village 3-flat that just came on the market at 1028 N Hermitage fits that description. The listing agent touts the units as "uber cool contemporary ... perfect."...
Village of Schaumburg Attempts to Hide $17 Million in Accrued Village Sick
2011-05-18 14:00:00 From the Palatine Tea Party... (Palatine, Illinois) - The Village of Schaumburg went out of its way to hide employee sick time balances when we attempted to submit a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) to obtain employee balances. Government agencies expect taxpayers to pay their expenses, but when asked to view the data the answer is met with clear opposition. The Village tried to hide behind HIPPA law as their excuse. We then appealed the Village's decision with the Illinois' State Attorney and won, click here. Click here, to view Village of Schaumburg's line-by-line employee sick time balances. After winning on appeal the Village of Schaumburg continued its uncooperative ways by mailing the balances on paper instead of scanning it...
Does the village of Montgomery condone its cops calling people "bleepi
2011-03-22 15:30:00 "A bunch of fucking niggers." That's how the police department in the village of Montgomery appeared to refer to Sherida Hughes after a traffic stop in 2009. I suppose I could chalk this up to happening in far west suburban Montgomery, located just south of Aurora on the Fox River. I could chalk this up to the village of Montgomery being backward and countrified. It's still wrong.

Village of Palatine More Than Doubles $100,000+ Employee Club
2011-03-02 13:00:00 From the Palatine Tea Party... (Palatine, Illinois) - The Village of Palatine more than doubles the number of Village employees making over six figures from 2009 to 2010. In 2009, using the Medicare wages and tips off the Village of Palatine employee W2's 43 of 423 employees made $100,000+. In 2010, 88 of 418 employees are making $100,000+ for 2010. For those 88 employees making $100,000+ for 2010 their average increase was 14.85%. Based on the economic conditions these increases appear questionable.

Urban Farming Classes in Chicago's Little Village Neighborhood
2011-02-16 04:01:00 The Chicago Botanic Garden is conducting a number of classes that are perfect for gardeners who want to learn to about urban farming and growing food in Chicago. The best part is that they're being held in the Little Village neighborhood, perfectly situated for residents of the south and southwest side where these kinds of classes are hard to find. While the information will be applicable to any garden in Chicago, they're ideal for those interested in urban agriculture and finding ways to grow their own food by extending the seasons. The classes are held once month, and unlike similar learning experiences, you don't have attend each class. You can choose the classes that interest you the most and take...
Winnetkans to pay more for Village services
2011-02-14 19:23:00 The average Winnetka home will see the cost of municipal services increase by 2.1%, or $125. The increase consists of a 1.4% ($37) rise in property taxes, an 8% ($53) increase in water charges, and a 1.5% ($35) increase in electricity costs. And, yes, you read that last item right: Winnetka residents buy their electricity from the Village. Winnetka purchases power wholesale from the Illinois Municipal Electric Agency (IMEA) and resells it to residents. Winnetka is the only North Shore suburb that's a member of IMEA, and the only one to have once operated its own power plant (pictured above). The Village's share of a typical property tax bill is only 13%, down from 17% in prior years as...
Price cuts at Burr Ridge Village Center
2011-01-28 18:23:00 The Burr Ridge Village Center, which bills itself as a "mixed-use outdoor lifestyle center," has attracted an enviable roster of retailers, restaurants and services. A major draw has been its location at a major interchange off the Stevenson Expy (I-55) near its intersection with the Tri-State Tollway (I-294). The economic downturn has had more of an impact on the condominiums at the Village Center, where sales have been slow for the past several years. Sixty-seven of the original 193 units are still available for purchase, in addition to a number of resales, one of which is approaching 1,000 days on the market. The developer recently slashed prices in a bid to spur sales and, according to Burr Ridge Patch, has...
The State of the Union... in Roscoe Village
2011-01-27 16:35:00 As President Obama prepared to address the nation on Tuesday, Chicago residents from across the city poured into the Village Tap on Roscoe and Hoyne, one of Roscoe Village's favorite watering holes, to attend the official Organizing for America (OFA) State of the Union viewing party. President Obama's State of the Union was well-received in Roscoe VillageIf Gallup polled the attendees, President Obama's approval rating would have been higher than Vladimir Putin's re-election margins. Despite Mr. Obama's strong poll numbers nationwide, this was definitely a company party.I spent the hour leading up to State of the Union interviewing the crowd to get their opinions on the President, his first two years in office and their hopes for the rest of his...

The Village of Palatine Passes Its Own Cap and Trade Ordinance - Part 1

(Palatine, Illinois) - The Palatine Village Council is following in the footsteps of the Obama Administration moving his progressive agenda forward at the local level. At the Village Council Meeting on December 13, 2010 the village unanimously passed its own version of Cap and Trade Ordinance without the "trade". This would generate an additional $900,000 to offset the Village of Palatine's 2011 budget shortfall. 2011 Electric Utility Tax...

The PELUKA Sisters at Le Duo's Christmas Village
2010-12-14 16:57:00 Yes, if you want to see the PELUKA sisters in person, just visit us at Le Duo Restaurant! *lol* Seriously, we joined the Christmas Bazaar at Le Duo.

Local Sweets and Wine Tasting at Lush in Roscoe Village
2010-09-23 01:53:00 One of my favorite things to do in conjunction with this blog is host events. Recently, I hosted another Girls' Night at Lush in Roscoe Village. Manager Jane Lopes picked out three bottles of wine and a bottle of scotch and a bottle of whiskey to pair with three local desserts, made by Chicago women. Besides the free wine and food, the best part about this particular event was that I didn't have to take photos; a good friend from college, Peter Thompson, shot these amazing pictures, so be sure to check out the gallery! The event featured tasty treats from Sweet Margy, Salted Caramel, and Paramels. Margery Kaye was there dishing out samples of her delicious toffee and bark; Ginna Haravon and Bridget Doherty...

2010-08-17 14:07:00 As I've recently written, home sellers in Chicago's University Village just can't compete with the short sales and foreclosures in that neighborhood - or at least they choose not to. Of course, buyers have been choosing not to buy.Just yesterday another short sale closed at what is probably the biggest discount to current asking prices yet. 832 W. Village Ct., a townhome which was originally listed at $549K and later reduced to $520K, closed at $492,500. This is one of the most desirable floorplans in University Village, with 3 bedrooms, including a huge master bedroom, 2 and 2 half baths, 2 balconies, a private roof top deck, an attached 2 car garage, and a large, square footprint.

University Village Sellers Can't Compete With Short Sales And Foreclos
2010-08-04 23:36:00 Because I live in University Village I really keep a close eye on what is going on with real estate there. In particular, the single family home at 1454 S Emerald caught my eye when it became bank owned and was put back on the market, with the list price eventually dropped to $836,900. Keep in mind that this was a 4300 sq ft house that sold for $1,207,000 in January 2007. It needed some work but it still looked like such a great deal compared to other properties for sale in University Village (more on that later) that my wife and I put a bid in for ourselves. It was way more house than we need so when...

The Second Kathu Village Culture Festival
2010-07-01 10:33:00 Last weekend from the 25th - 27th June our local village had it's second cultural street festival (first one was last August - see here). Using the word "village" in Phuket may sound odd, but there are many small communities in Phuket and remember that Phuket was not always so built up - go back only 20 years and things were much quieter. The villages like Kathu retain a very local way of life with modern attributes like internet, new cars and 4 lane roads (often the 4 lane roads are totally unnecessary). Kathu is one of the 3 districts of Phuket (along with Muang and Thalang) and is then subdivided into subdistricts called Tambon and further into villages (Tesaban and Muban) - it's all rather confusing actually - this website helps with all the terminology.So the event in Kathu celebrates the culture and history of this part of Phuket, which became the main town in Phuket in the early 19th century thanks to the tin mining boom. Kathu (aka Ket-Ho) was the center of the mining indu...

Black Dog Gelato coming to Ukrainian Village
2010-05-22 00:37:00 The first time I went to Scylla, Stephanie Izard's now-shuttered Bucktown restaurant, I was roundly impressed. From start to finish, it was one of the better meals I had that year. And I really do mean from start to finish--in fact, it was the finish I was talking about days later. But all I ordered for dessert was gelato. People looked at me funny when I urged them to go to this great new seafood-focused place ... and order the gelato. Over the next few years, it started to come together. Every time I had really amazing gelato at a restaurant, I'd ask if it was house-made. More often than not, the answer was, "No, we get it from Black Dog." Aha! Black Dog, of...
