green. :: a vegan and vegetarian potluck
concept :: to promote healthy and conscious 'meatless' eating (along with educate on living a 'green' lifestyle)... to think about how we eat and what we eat and the effect it has on the planet. if you eat meat we still want you to come! try new things, meet new people and learn a little. it is about health, support and the celebration of life! no judgement here! : ) i personally am a 'new vegetarian' and am still learning myself! it is just amazing all the incredible foods that do not contain meat!

From a blog posting by Laura McShane:
We have all seen a rise in brutal, subhuman behavior. Children deprived of artistic, natural, and cultural literacy and rich human interaction are fed by a world of drugs and video game inspired violence. John Jackson and Masumi Hayashi faced brutal death at the hands of a "29 year-old kid," because we have allowed this disease to destroy our communities.Councilperson Matt Zone will hold a ceremony to dedicate a Peace Garden in their memory this Thursday, August 24th at 7 p.m. at the intersection of West 65th and West Clifton in the Detroit-Shoreway neighborhood (one block south of Detroit Ave). I do not have a lot of information at this point, please contact Matt Zone or the Detroit Shoreway Development Corporation for more details.Please tell anyone you know to reflect on the life of these artists. There should be more media information in the following days.I know that there are preliminary plans to establish scholarship funds at CSU and CIA for both artists. Please remember these quiet, peaceful souls who both revered art and life

I just got the following invitation from my favorite economic development leader in NEO, Cleveland Tech Czar Michael DeAloia, and I am intrigued he is not only a technology visionary but a poet. It will certainly be worth checking out the next event where he is reciting his poetry, as this is also a good cause of a group of other great NEO community leaders who operate "Meet the Bloggers". See more about the event below, and more about the poet Michael DeAloia in our feature of him as poet of the day. From poet Michael DeAloia, you are invited...
