The sounds of Kool and the Gang’s Celebrate filled the air as Sean and I got off the CTA at Cermak and walked toward the gate marking the entrance to Chinatown. A multi ethnic crowd filled the streets swaying to the music.

17 Days of Peace
Every two years, the world throws a party known as the Olympics. Although only a few thousand people get to participate in the party, the rest of us are allowed to watch and cheer. This year’s Winter Olympics in Vancouver started out tinged in sadness as a 21 year old slider from Georgia (the country, not the state) died in practice several hours before the opening ceremonies. His spirit seemed to hover over the stadium as the athletes, coaches, and crowd were asked to remember him and to strive to live up to the credo of the games.
