Archive for the ‘Vacation’Category. Tel Aviv-a La Vida. I wrote this article for Kellogg’s student newspaper, The Merger, to document the trip I took to Israel with 40 of my classmates in March. These articles are generally written with lots of inside jokes that only the participants understand, but I thought I’d share it here for everyone to read. Gettin’ Scrappy in Motown. After I tweeted Thursday’s plea for help. Live from Detroit (a personal plea). I’m spending a couple of days in Detroit on my...

http://www.lifelongmichigander.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Write for Lifelong Michigander. Thursday, September 18, 2014. Thank you, Virginia. On the George Washington Parkway, leaving Virginia. I am back in Michigan to stay. Yesterday morning, I finished packing up the car, loaded up the dog, and said goodbye to what had been my adopted home state for more than a decade. I still need to find a house and move the rest of the family (and all of our stuff) to Michigan, but my life as a Virginian is over. Thank you, Virginia.for everything. Links to this post.

Widening Circles: February 2011

Monday, February 28, 2011. Our Lady of Gaga was on Good Morning America dressed in condom chic as a way to talk about AIDS/HIV prevention. I'm glad to see a celebrity talk about this because God knows breakfasts at the White House are probably going to go unnoticed, especially by the under 20 set. Sunday, February 27, 2011. They Don't Make Them Like They Use To. The BBC recently published this great article about the microphones used back in the day. Apparently, despite the age, they still basically work.

Occupy Detroit Transit: Greener Urban Spaces
http://transitdetroit.blogspot.com/2015/01/greener-urban-spaces.html
Thursday, January 15, 2015. There's a wonderful initiative to cover the Autobahn in Hamburg Germany. It's called the " Hamburger Deckel. 35km of roadway is going to be covered, turning it into green space and reducing noise in the neighborhoods. There's a great review of the project in English at Streets Without Cars. If It Was In Detroit. One benefit is the mitigation of air pollution through creating green spaces to offset carbon emissions with fresh air. That will be needed as the freeway beneath will...
