Portland’s NW Neighborhoods Are Quickly Becoming the Most Exciting Areas in PDX!

Incredibly Fun Things to Do

To say that the Northwest neighborhoods are a vibrant area is a bit of an understatement. At any given time, Portlanders have their pick of marvelous parks, entertainment venues, and cultural events. Here are a few of the local faves:

Jamison Park

This park boasts a cool fountain, tidal pool, and outdoor art gallery.

McMenamin’s Crystal Ballroom

This historic venue, which is about five minutes from our nob hill apartments, showcases some of the biggest music acts as well as themed dance parties.

First Thursdays

On the first Thursday of every month, PDX-ers enjoy an awesome gallery walk featuring art exhibits, wine, and live music.

The Brody Theater

A mecca of improv comedy, The Brody Theater offers up a good time with shows, open mics, and classes.

Amazing Places to Eat, Drink and Shop

BridgePort Brewing

A Portland original, BridgePort crafts brews and pub bites with deliciously fresh and locally-sourced ingredients.

Powell’s City of Books

A major benefit of living in Northwest District/Nob Hill zone is being super close to world-famous Powell’s. With millions of new and used books in their inventory, it’s a bibliophile’s paradise.

Marrakesh

Marrakesh is not just about the exceptional Moroccan fare. It also delights diners with talented belly dancers.

Java Hound Coffee Bar

Java Hound welcomes both humans and canines alike with scrumptious coffee, tea, pastries, and puppuccinos (dog treats floating in goat’s milk).

Incredible Urban Innovations

Portland has done a brilliant job of keeping up with economic growth and an increase in population. One example of this is the Portland Streetcar. No doubt the overall public transportation system in PDX is terrific, but the Streetcar is uniquely inventive for several reasons:

It was the country’s first modern streetcar

It’s an award-winning system

It’s easily accessible and links multiple Portland districts (yes, including Pearl)

It’s a cinch to use for PDX-ers and out-of-towners alike

It ingeniously utilizes unused railyards

It serves as a model for other cities

Engagement Decor Inspired by Travel Destinations

Creating a memorable and captivating atmosphere is essential when organizing an engagement party. Inspired by famous tourist locations is one of the most creative and fascinating methods to accomplish this. This not only gives your event a distinctive character, but it also takes your attendees on a visual tour, laying the groundwork for an amazing celebration. To make your wedding decorations as engaging as your love story, we'll look at ways to change your engagement décor by adding aspects from around the globe in this post.

To add even more magic and unforgettable elements to your wedding celebration, pick a theme from Take Rent Pe, an online source of rental decorating settings. Select from the over 100+ alternatives for décor sets and delegate all event planning to the professionals.

French Style Elegance

Paris, the City of Light, is synonymous with romance and sophistication. To bring a touch of Parisian elegance to your engagement decoration, think about incorporating classic French elements. Start with a color palette of soft pastels, gold, and ivory to evoke the charm of Parisian streets and landmarks.

Engagement stage decoration settings, use vintage lace tablecloths, fine china, and crystal glassware. Floral arrangements should include roses, peonies, and hydrangeas in blush pinks and whites. Add Eiffel Tower replicas as centerpieces and use chic, black-and-white striped ribbons for an extra touch of French flair.

Lighting plays a crucial role in creating the right ambiance. String fairy lights or use crystal chandeliers to cast a warm, romantic glow. For a truly Parisian feel, set up a small corner with a faux patisserie display featuring macarons, croissants, and other French pastries.

Tropical Paradise

If your concept of romance involves palm trees swinging in the wind and sun-kissed beaches, then decorating your event with a tropical paradise theme would be ideal. Start with selecting vivid hues that capture the cheery and bright atmosphere of tropical locations, such as sunshine yellow, coral, and turquoise. Add organic components to your decor, such driftwood, rattan, and bamboo. Use woven placemats, candles made of coconut shells, and tropical flowers like bird of paradise, hibiscus, and orchids for your table arrangements. Seashells, pineapples, and coconuts make interesting and unique centerpieces.

Soft, flowing materials like linen and chiffon can help create a carefree, beachy vibe. To add to the tropical atmosphere, hang lanterns or string lights with accents of starfish or seashells. To truly take your visitors to a seaside haven, think about adding a tiki bar with exotic cocktails and mocktails as a final touch.

Tuscan Charm

The rustic beauty of Tuscany offers a perfect blend of elegance and simplicity for engagement decoration. Focus on a warm and earthy color palette, including shades of olive green, terracotta, and sunflower yellow. These colors reflect the stunning landscapes and charming villages of the Tuscan countryside.

For an authentic touch, choose wrought iron furniture or wooden tables and chairs for your dining arrangements. Tables should be dressed with glassware and ceramic dishes, covered with burlap runners. Add components to your floral arrangements such as lavender, sunflowers, and olive branches. Big urns with lemons and plants inside can make eye-catching centerpieces.

The enchantment of Tuscany must be captured by ambient lighting. To create a warm and pleasant ambiance, use hanging lanterns or strings of fairy lights. Arrange a wine tasting station with a variety of excellent Italian wines and rustic bread that can be dipped in olive oil to finish the scene.

Moroccan Splendor

For a bold and vibrant wedding decoration, look to the rich colors and intricate patterns of Moroccan decor. Choose a palette of jewel tones like sapphire blue, emerald green, ruby red, and gold. These colors will create a luxurious and exotic ambiance reminiscent of Moroccan palaces. Add luxurious materials and textures, such velvet, silk, and cushions with embroidery. Setting up low seating with poufs and floor cushions can make the space feel cozy and personal. For a hint of Moroccan beauty, incorporate mosaic candlesticks, brass trays, and elaborate lamps into your design.

Arrange your table with a variety of vibrant dishes and glasses. Exotic flowers like orchids, calla lilies, and bougainvillea can be used in floral arrangements. Add a Moroccan tea station with mint tea served in traditional teapots to heighten the sensory experience.

Japanese Zen

The peaceful beauty of Japanese gardens can serve as inspiration for a minimalist and quiet décor. A Zen garden's serenity and peace can be evoked with a color scheme consisting of gentle neutrals like beige, white, and subtle greens.

Simplicity is key in Japanese-inspired decor. Use clean lines and natural materials like wood, stone, and paper. For table settings, opt for simple, elegant dishware and minimalistic floral arrangements featuring cherry blossoms, bamboo, or bonsai trees.

Lighting should be soft and subtle. Paper lanterns or tea lights in glass holders can create a peaceful and inviting atmosphere. To complete the Zen experience, consider setting up a small koi pond or a rock garden as a focal point for your reception decoration.

Conclusion

Incorporating elements from your favorite travel destinations into your engagement decoration not only makes your celebration unique but also creates a visual journey for your guests. Whether you choose the elegance of Paris, the vibrancy of a tropical paradise, the rustic charm of Tuscany, the bold splendor of Morocco, or the serene beauty of Japan, each theme offers endless possibilities for creating a magical and memorable event. By thoughtfully integrating these elements into your wedding decoration, you can ensure that every aspect of your special day is a true reflection of your love and your dreams.

arsonists and the tent, 7 blessings, fatma 8.12.2023

This is what I woke up to this morning. The people who did this are the descendants of the Nazis who sent up to the gas chambers and the Hamas which burnt our people in their houses. 

 During the night, while the people of the *encampment of the families of the murdered and kidnapped* in front of the Knesset were preparing for a night's sleep, they smelled the smell of a fire, *and heavy smoke enveloped the encampment.* The residents of the encampment succeeded in their quick reaction to put out the fire using fire extinguishers. The police and fire brigade were called to the place, which ruled out an electrical fault (the encampment operates with the approval of the electric company and accompanied by a qualified electrical engineer). *The possibility that the source of the fire is due to suspected arson is now being examined*. Fortunately, the fire was extinguished quickly and without casualties. However, it should be noted that the residents of the encampment, who lost their loved ones in the terrible disaster of October 7, *suffered in recent weeks several threats from passers-by who expressed themselves in an extreme and violent manner*. The thought that *freedom of protest and expression in Israel is under threat* emphasizes even more strongly the *danger of the leadership of the party and the instigator and the need to replace them with worthy leaders*. *The Shabbat reception will take place today as planned* at 13:00 at the Mahal. Kaplan 1, Jerusalem. *Now is the time to go to the Knesset!* 📢 Share *Follow us and join the protest*📢 *To join a silent group of eyes on the Knesset* https://chat.whatsapp.com/Ln2Bsudap0TExbyKyCvttt to column X of the encampment https://x.com/hamishpahot/status/1729194130881032568?s=46

This I wrote yesterday. 

A man at Nofim asked me if I could bring yellow ribbons (the ribbon we wear as a sign for the bringing back of the kidnapped) which seems further and further away. We had  a house meeting and I asked him to make an announcement that we would put the ribbons on the table at the entrance.  When I asked him why he had not done so, he said that they had all been taken while he was still holding them.

I invited Irit and Yaakov to go with me to see the film

Seven Blessings

The movie poster

The movie page on IMDb

Seven Blessings is an Israeli family drama film from 2023 , centered on the wedding of 40-year-old Marie ( Raymond Amsalem ), who arrives at the Hoffa accompanied by her biological mother Hana ( Tiki Dayan ) on the one hand, and her adoptive mother Gracia ( Reveka Bacher ) on the other. The film won 10 Ophir awards for 2023, including the best feature film , and as a result will compete for the representation of Israel in the Oscar award for the best foreign film at the 96th ceremony to be held in 2024.

The theme song of the film was sung by the singer Ron Peretz . The lyrics were written by Eleanor Sela and composed by Yogev Kinan.

plot [ edit source code | edit ]

At the center of the plot is the bride Marie ( Raymond Amsalem ), who was born to Hana ( Tiki Dayan ), the eldest child, and was given at the age of two to Gracia ( Reveka Bacher ), Hana's childless sister. This is according to a custom that existed among Moroccan Jewry and was called "borrowing a girl": a mother with many children would give one of her daughters to her sister who had no children, in order to prevent her divorce .  According to Jewish law a man can divorce a wife who is barrren!!!  I have heard, I think, of African tribes where this is done but did not know it had been done by Jews too., In fact, Hadas, their daughter who came with us said that her husband had an uncle who was given to a childless family member. It is supposed to be a comedy drama but was more sad than it was funny

Than last night I went with Karen to the Dormition Abbey where they had a rendition of Judah Maccabee.....such voices and all of them Jewish. And all I could think of was the first scenes which showed Hamas bursting into Israel.

 I am putting in this article from the Jerusalem Post about what happened to Israeli women soldiers ....I can't even write the heading of the article.  Don't open it if  you are faint hearted but if you want to prove to anyone what animals Hamas are..this is the way. This is not rape but sheer savagery. Although there are those who still try to deny it, the videos have been shown all over the world, although some people still deny it. 

קמא 

Also the danger of fake news which Sara Netanyahyu spread about a foreign  kidnapped   woman giving birth in  Gaza. She even wrote to Jill Biden about it. I put  in an article from Ha'aretz on the subject. The only good news on the tv today was that the army is beginning to realise how dangerous the hilltop youth are. to me they have all the makings of Hamas bolstered up by fanatics such as Ben Gvir.  

We are shown very little of what is happening in Gaza and unfortunately Al Jazeera is in Arabic....I do think of  what is happening in Gaza but, to be honest, my first thoughts are for the hostages.  Hamas could easily stop it if they would give the hostages back. and Netanyahu could also call for a ceasefire and have them brought back even if only as before in small groups and bring the fighting to an end. 

Fatma died of a heart attack during the night. I am happy for her. She died in her own bed, in her own house. What will happen now at Sheikh Jarrar, I don't know. For at least 20 years we have been demonstrating every Friday afternoon for the neighborhood where houses are continually being taken over by force by settlers. Since the beginning of the war there have been no demonstrations. In fact, in Jerusalem,Last Saturday when I went it was more a religious celebration of Shabbat than a protest calling for the freeing of the hostages and the fall of Netanyayyu. In Tel Aviv it is more a true demonstration but the problem is that it is so long.....the trip from Jerusalem, the long hours with all the speeches where nothing new is said. then waiting for the buse to fill, the ride home and then you still have to get to Nofim. 

Anyhow I felt I had to go to the shiva for her. It only lasts four days andI found no one to go with as they were all going at hours which  were not good for me. So I went alone, very uncomfortable and rather embarrassing. Bus,  train and then a long walk....which I was actually glad of as I am not doing enough walking. I have to force myself, not physically but emotionally. Eating is the same problem, I buy things which normally I would not allow myself to eat as being fattening and even they do not tempt me...or I eat them with lang tande.Anyhow I have never  gone to the neighborhood alone. Only for the demonstrations. Not that I am scared of going there. In fact I got to many areas where my friends would not go. But you stand out so. And then too there is the embarrassment of going into a house of mourning where you do not speak the language or know the customs. But I knew Fatma and I could not ignore her death.

It was very hard finding the house. I went to the place where I normally would see her but the door was locked and the way also was very uneven. There were hardly any people around and then a man recognized me and sent me around the other way. The stairs going down were very uneven but then  a woman came out who recognised me and helped me down. There were only women there.....the men were sitting in a different place. But the room was full and one woman was reading from the Koran. I went up to her and then they gave me a comfortable place to sit. I drank the traditional coffee and the traditional date. I did not speak to anyone as they were all praying and sat for about 10 minutes and then left. A woman helped me out and thanked me for coming. I felt I had to give Fatma the  last honour. 

Anyhow, let me make you laugh a bit. The last months at Nofim have been very annoying for me where the cleaning is concerned as the woman I had who was wonderful left and there were several people here making problems for the new house committee.  The new guy who is an Arab is not very efficient and I really blew up at him the other day/ I felt very bad about it as I have never had bad dealings with any of the workers. I phoned him and asked him to come up and we spoke it out. In the Arab fashion, he said I was like his grandmother to him....I apologized again and he said it was quite alright....that two days ago his father had been so mad at him, he had thrown his shoe at him!! Which by the way is very insulting in Arab culture. So we both laughed and shook hands.

Sometimes there is a light and a laugh however faint which gives you a reason to keep fighting.

Report: FM arranged diplomatic passports for top Likudniks, sought one for PM’s son

Despite professionals' recommendations, the prized documents were reportedly given to influential party officials; Cohen also said to have tried to arrange one for Yair Netanyahu. By the way evidently the little shit is back, very quietly!! He had the nerve to go and sit in the offices of Magen Davied in their uniforms and pretend that he volunteered there which is completely untrue and no one had the guts to  chuck him out. He is such a useless piece of shit. Netanyahu keeps saying that we are losing the best of our young man.......I guess that is why his two sons are not there. But it does not embarrass  him to say so.

A Birthday Feast to Remember: Creating the Ultimate Culinary Experience for Your Special Person

Celebrating a loved one's birthday is an opportunity to express your affection whilst making their day uniquely memorable, and what better way to do that than through the universal language of food! Here's your ultimate guide to curating a special birthday feast.

Decide on a Theme A culinary theme could add a distinctive twist to the birthday feast. Your theme could reflect the birthday person's preferences, a memorable trip they made or a cuisine they've longed to try. It could be anything from Moroccan magic to Italian indulgence, or a comfort-food extravaganza.

Appetizers to Awaken the Palate Entrance your guests with a variety of appetizers that hint at the gastronomic journey ahead. From classic bruschetta in an Italian-themed feast, to enticing samosas for an Indian feel, appetizers set the tone for the entire feast.

The Main Attraction The main course should create a statement, harmonizing with your chosen theme. If the birthday person has a dish that makes their heart sing, let it be the star of the evening. Pair it with sides that complement the main dish both in terms of flavor and presentation.

Craft the Perfect Drinks Select beverages that suit your culinary theme and the birthday person's taste. A lover of French cuisine might appreciate a good bottle of wine, whereas a tropical feast calls for exotic cocktails or mocktails. Remember to provide a variety of options to cater to different preferences.

Desserts to Die For The dessert is often the most anticipated part of a birthday feast. It's more than just the birthday cake; consider including other sweet treats inspired by your theme. For instance, flan for a Spanish-themed party or baklava for a Greek feast. And, of course, the crowning glory — a cake that reflects the birthday person's favorites.

The Art of Presentation The food presentation is as important as the taste. Aesthetically pleasing food arrangements, thematic table settings, and creative food displays can result in a feast that delights the eyes as much as the palate.

Personal Touches Adding personal elements can transform the dining experience. If blueberries remind them of a childhood spent picking berries, incorporate blueberries in a dish. Or use a family recipe that brings back warm memories. Such thoughtful elements heighten the emotional value of the meal.

Dietary Considerations Take into account any dietary restrictions or food allergies of your loved one and other guests. It's crucial to craft a menu that allows everyone to enjoy the feast comfortably.

Endnote: Creating a memorable birthday culinary experience means attentively weaving the tastes and preferences of the birthday person into every detail. It involves knowing their favorite flavors, remembering their culinary adventures, and showcasing your thoughtfulness through choice of dishes. Not only does this serve an unforgettable feast, but it also articulates your care for them in one of the most profound ways possible.

Another popularly used type of tent is Raj tent and that is prominently because these are affordable and accommodative at the same time. The size of Raj tent is the greatest when compared with all the other types of tents and this is why they can be and must be used when the host has to accommodate a large number of people.

Dinner Party

In class we had to come up with a list of five creatives we would like to have at a dinner party. There were a series of questions we had to answer for each of these guests.

Who would you include?

What do you like about this person?

Why would you include them?

Which era is this person from?

What themes did this creative person include in their work?

How could you honor them?

When would this event be?

What food would you serve?

Who would they get on with?

Where would this event be?

I Started to answer the questions for each guest but felt it was easier to just write a short passage on each that answers most of the questions

Run Wrake

Run Wrake is a British animator, illustrator and graphic designer. Active from the 1980’s till he passed in 2012. I would like to include Run in my dinner party because I appreciate his attitude and creativity. I enjoy the way he brings classic art and design elements into animation. Run likes to work with loops, Bauhaus design, Constructivism and has themes of mortality, morality and human nature delivered through a surreal lens. Some of Runs work would be projected at a large scale at this event perhaps on the outside of the building. Run would get on with Howie B and Len Lye. Rabbit stew would be served as the main course.

Len Lye

Len Lye is a sculptor and experimental film maker from New Zealand who was active from the 1920’s till the 1970’s. Len is included in my dinner party because he helped shine a light on art work from cultures that normally would not get exposure. Within the world of experimental film, he is considered a pioneer. Excellent at capturing pattern and movement another guest with a surrealist vision. I wanted to have both a voice of the past and from NZ that was less contemporary. Len was an admirer of the art of Māori, Aboriginal, Pacific Island and African cultures and incorporated elements into his own work. I would want the lighting at the event to pay homage to Len and have some Kinetic sculptures at the entrance.

Joseph Müller Brockmann

Graphic designer author and educator Joseph is considered one of the key figures of the International Typographic Style and was active from 1936-1996. I wanted to invite Joseph as he has a strong moral compass and I believe his work comes from a genuine place, he wanted to make life better for people. Joseph used simple geometric shapes, minimalism and typography to deliver his messages in an objective way. Favouring truth and functionality. We can have a table setting inspired by Swiss Design. I think Joseph would get on with most guests at the event.

James Holden

James Holden producer dj and label owner. James makes complex and atmospheric music that brings people together. He uses his label to help up and coming artists get their break in a difficult industry. James incorporates elements of Moroccan Gnawa music and tours his live performances all over the world. James would provide the audio structure at the event and will probably find a kindred spirit in Joseph Müller Brockmann
