From the time the ancient Greek runner Pheidippides ran from Marathon to Athens to announce the Greeks' victory over Persia in the Battle of Marathon, humans have been compelled to push the limits of endurance.
The marathon truly is different from any other running race. It unites people, and it changes lives. Perhaps that's because people recognize the truth in what running philosopher Dr. George Sheehan once said: "The marathon is an adventure into the limits of the self, a theater for heroism, where the runner can do deeds of daring and greatness." And it gives you really nice legs.
Change your life in 2017 and try one—or all—of these 10 marathons.
Houston MarathonJanuary 15, 2017 - Houston, Texas 1 of 11
Though the location might seem slightly innocuous, the Chevron Houston Marathon is truly a sight to behold. The largest single day sporting event in Houston brings nearly a quarter-million supporters and spectators together to watch one of the largest—and fastest—marathons in the U.S.
Runners will pass through popular areas like Houston Heights, Neartown, Hermann Park and Rice University—and many will "Run for a Reason." A philanthropic community unique to the Houston Marathon, Run for a Reason gives participants the opportunity to fundraise and raise awareness for meaningful causes represented by 62 different charity partners. Since 1995, the initiative has raised over $24 million.
Hilton Head Island MarathonFebruary 11, 2017 - Hilton Head Island, S.C. 2 of 11
The Hilton Head Island Marathon takes place on, you know, Hilton Head Island—so we're off to a nice start. One of the top vacation destinations in the continental U.S., Hilton Head truly has a little something for everyone.
The fast, flat course is one of the most scenic you'll find, with passes through communities like Spanish Wells, Point Comfort and Honey Horn Plantation, en route to a post-race party that features a craft beer garden with over 30 brews from which to choose. So, pack your golf clubs, your bathing suit and your running shoes—you're headed for paradise.
Napa ValleyMarch 5, 2017 - Calistoga, Calif. 3 of 11
A relatively intimate marathon with about 2,500 runners, the Napa Valley Marathon is a quaint race in an agricultural setting. If you like to mix wine with your running (and who doesn't?), this is the marathon for you.
The scenic course runs along the Silverado Trail on the east side of the valley and winds south from Calistoga to Napa alongside the many vineyards. Except for the last half-mile, the entire course is rural. Take in the views, but don't drink and run (okay, maybe just a little). After the race, stay at one of the charming inns and spend the next day wine tasting and relaxing.
Paris MarathonApril 9, 2017 - Paris, France 4 of 11
Ah, Paris! The city of lights, the city of romance, the city of... a marathon? Yup, the most romantic city in the world has a marathon, and a popular one at that, with 35,000 to 40,000 runners.
The course starts on one of the most famous streets in the world, the Champs-Elysees, and runs a winding loop through the city, beside the banks of the River Seine and past some of the city's greatest sites, including the Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame Cathedral and the Place de la Bastille before finishing near the Arc de Triomphe. Volunteers hand out red wine and cheese to runners at the Eiffel Tower, about three-quarters of the way through the race—just enough time to numb yourself before hitting the marathon wall.
Pro Football Hall of Fame MarathonApril 29, 2017 - Canton, Ohio 5 of 11
For the pro football fan who loves to go long, what better bucket list 1-2 punch than the Pro Football Hall of Fame Marathon, hosted on the hallowed grounds of Canton, Ohio? The football-themed course is a Boston Marathon qualifier that leads to one of the best finisher medals you'll find.
Canton Brewing Company will throw the welcome party on Friday night to kickoff a weekend full of music, food and fun for the whole family. Of course, no weekend will be complete without a visit inside of the Hall of Fame, itself.
Big Sur InternationalApril 30, 2017 - Carmel, Calif. 6 of 11
The Big Sur International Marathon offers a course that features incredible beauty as well as a real challenge for most runners and faster walkers. Staged entirely on Highway 1, runners are treated to panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean on their left and the pastoral beauty of the coastal mountain range on their right. An eclectic offering of music serenades runners along the course, including Michael Martinez playing the Yamaha Grand Piano at Bixby Bridge at the halfway point.
The Great Wall MarathonMay 20, 2017 - Tianjin Province, China 7 of 11
A destination and bucket list race for many, The Great Wall Marathon might be one of the most beautiful races on the planet, but it is not for the faint of heart. The famous course winds up and down a large section of the Great Wall of China—totaling 5,164 stone steps of various heights and widths, making for a notably treacherous and challenging run.
The Portland MarathonOct. 8, 2017 - Portland, Ore. 8 of 11
Now celebrating its 45th year, the Portland Marathon is consistently ranked as one of the best marathons for beginners, with Runner's World deeming it "the best people's marathon in the West."
The course has no shortage of entertainment, with over 74 different entertainment groups performing at 53 locations during last year's race alone. It is also known as one of the most walker-friendly marathons in the United States—the course stays open for eight hours to accommodate participants of all athletic abilities.
TCS New York City MarathonNov. 5, 2017 - New York 9 of 11
The largest marathon in the United States with over 50,000 runners, the TCS New York City Marathon is the cream of the marathon crop. To paraphrase Frank Sinatra, if you can run there, you can run anywhere. The marathon is organized by the New York Road Runners, the largest running club in the United States.
The course begins on the Staten Island side of the Verrazano Narrows Bridge and runs through dozens of culturally and ethnically diverse neighborhoods in Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx and Manhattan, and then finishes in world-famous Central Park. You cross five bridges, including the Queensboro Bridge, which puts you onto First Avenue in Manhattan at mile 16, where you're greeted by thousands of screaming spectators, making it one of the most exciting streets to run on in the world. After the race, get off your feet and dine at one of New York's many famous restaurants, see a Broadway show, and ride a horse-drawn carriage through Central Park.
Because of its enormous popularity, getting into the TCS New York City Marathon is harder than hailing a taxicab in Times Square on a Saturday evening. You can have the privilege of running New York by applying by lottery that is drawn in April, running a speedy qualifying time, running for charity, or being a celebrity.
Honolulu MarathonDec. 10, 2016 - Honolulu 10 of 11
The Honolulu Marathon is the fourth largest marathon in the United States, attracting some 20,000 runners each year.
To beat the heat, the race starts at 5 a.m. (yes, you read that right!) on Ala Moana Boulevard, which is Hawaiian for "path by the ocean." And that's just what you get in this exotic locale known for its relaxed atmosphere, cheap noodle joints and fancy Pacific Rim cuisine. Enjoy spectacular ocean views as you run alongside world-famous Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head and Koko Head volcanic craters before finishing at Waikiki's Kapiolani Park. After the race, soak your tired legs in the ocean and lounge on the sand. If you get there early, don't miss the concert and luau at the Waikiki Shell held a couple days before the race.

About two weeks ago, one of our 13-year old Cockatiels named, Bonnie, passed away. A couple days ago I noticed that our other Tiel, Clyde's head is slightly bent forward and the feathers around his ears look like they are puffed out. He is acting completely normally: chirping, whistling and talking... he just looks strange. Is he just sad or could it be something more serious?

Sorry coffee addicts, but these aren’t the lattes you’re used to. These lattes are weird and wonderful because they’re made of everything but coffee.
Tea Based Lattes (♥)
Tea lattes are a natural progression in an over-caffeinated world. Some tea lattes are made from black tea or whole tea powders such as matcha (green tea powder) and these still contain caffeine, but most tea lattes will still be lower in caffeine than coffee, and those made from herbal teas would likely be caffeine free.
1. London Fog Latte – Rabbit Hole Tea Bar
The Rabbit Hole deserves their number one spot on this list simply for the sheer amount of tea lattes they have on the menu. Their menu describes the London Fog Latte as ‘Earl grey with sweet, soothing vanilla.’ The flavour in actuality is very subtle, and not very sweet, but it is still a very pleasant drink. Coffee drinkers may not appreciate the mild flavour of this latte, but tea drinkers would appreciate the subtlety. If you love Earl Grey tea, definitely give this one a go.
2. Hojicha Latte – Double Cross Espresso
This one is for those with a taste for Asian cuisine. This latte is unlike anything else, and is reminiscent of Genmaicha tea, though Hojicha is different again from Genmaicha (Green tea with roasted rice). Similarly, both Hojicha and Genmaicha are often made from Bancha tea leaves (a type of green tea which is roasted). The roasted nature of Hojicha tea gives this latte its bold flavour. After my first sip, my first thought was ‘grassy’ in the way that green tea often has a grassy quality. As I continued to drink, the roasted flavour came through. For those of you who aren’t usually adventurous with your drinks, I wouldn’t recommend this one unless you’re a fan of green tea (including the regular kind, or the fancier kinds like Genmaicha or Sencha) already. Though, if you are adventurous and are tired of matcha lattes – the Hojicha latte would be a great next step in your phase of Asian drink exploration.
This latte is also served at Glider KS cafe in Chippendale!
Vegetable-based lattes (?!)
This trend has emerged from Asia – where these kinds of crazy lattes have become a staple offering in many cafes, and in Sydney, we’re lucky enough to have some Asian owned cafes which have started offering them! Vegetable lattes might sound crazy, but they’re actually sweet and delicious. If you’re tired of tea and coffee, why not give powdered vegetable lattes a shot?
3. Taro Latte- TNS Coffee Project
The Taro Latte at this small Central Park Mall cafe is so dreamy. It’s bright purple, and it sometimes comes with a latte-art heart to give you that extra lovely feeling that you want from a hot drink. If you are unfamiliar with what Taro is, it is a type of white or purple yam, very popular in Asia, but also available in Australia! In its pure baked vegetable form, it is super sweet, and the powder-based form it takes on to blend into a latte works amazingly well. The flavour mixes well with milk (and sugar somewhere in the mix) to create a wonderfully creamy and nutty drink. You wouldn’t want to drink one of these every day, but for those times when you need a pick-me-up or a fun substitute for a hot chocolate or chai latte, it’s the perfect option.
Other signature drink options from the same cafe: chai, green tea latte, plus all the other basics.
The Taro latte is offered in lots of cafes now, but The Local Mbassy in Ultimo also does a really great one.
4. Sweet Potato Latte – Caffe Tiamo, CBD
The Sweet Potato Latte is a signature drink offered at this quirky cafe near World Square, right in the heart of the city. When the latte first arrived, I thought – ‘It’s purple, they’ve given me a taro latte by mistake!’ but after seeing the poster featuring the sweet potato latte inside the cafe, I realised that it was supposed to be purple. And then, as soon as I took a sip, I was certain that it was the right latte. The first sip tasted just like an extra sweet baked sweet potato. I was actually amazed at how much the latte tasted like a real sweet potato. The only question: whether or not you would like to drink liquified sweet potato? At first, I was amused, but when I really considered how much I was enjoying the drink, the answer was not much. There was nothing wrong with it, it is a sweet and tasty drink (sweet potatoes are delicious!) but it all comes down to how much you enjoy that taste. If you’re a sweet potato fanatic, I would absolutely go and order this drink, but if not – steer clear and try the nutty Taro latte instead.
Though, I must say that the sweet potato latte certainly lives up to its name!
Other signature drink options from the same cafe: green tea latte, taro latte, chai, soy black sesame, soy chestnut latte, cookies n cream, hot chocolate, mint chocolate, blue lagoon. They also do coffee, if you’re into that kind of thing.
And that’s the first edition of weird and wonderful lattes in Sydney!
But that’s not all the weird lattes Sydney has to offer, and I’ve got a fair few more to talk about, which will be covered in part 2 (coming soon).
Thanks for reading!

We also hear that only conservatives oppose legalization, when in fact, many liberals also understand that assisted suicide is bad medicine and even worse public policy.

Professionals state it really is one of the government efforts that are biggest – but might not assist much.
Free Debt Analysis
Specialists state it is among the government efforts that are biggest – but may well not assist much.
Through the Washington Post to CNBC, professionals are speaking about exactly just how Congress might carve down another $3 trillion to greatly help struggling People in america.
The HEROES Act effortlessly passed the House that is democratic-led and lands in a skeptical Senate.
It’s most novel function is just how it treats personal student education loans. For just what could be the very first time, specialists say Congress is proposing in order to make direct re payments to banking institutions along with other personal organizations that published loans to university students.
The CARES Act permitted loan that is federal to carry down making re re payments until September 30. The HEROES Act runs that for the next 12 months – in addition to $45 billion for education loan forgiveness.
Republican Senators might have called the bill “dead on arrival.”  But that is a indication of increasing give attention to education loan reform, based on specialists Debt.com talked with.
Can the federal federal government arrive at the rescue?
In 2019, Elizabeth Warren spearheaded the learning student Loan Debt Relief Act, which proposed to cancel $50,000 in education loan financial obligation for pupils with a family group earnings under $10,000.
That bill pressed to cancel personal loans. However it never ever mentions having to pay an amount of financial obligation and has now yet to pass through the homely house, based on Michael Lux, creator for the education loan Sherpa, a web site for debtor training and education loan advocacy.
“As far as real legislation goes, [student loans] never have actually been addressed, definitely not in regards to relief,” Lux said. “Addressing personal loans could be a step that is big if Congress had been to get it done.”
The government controls 43 million student education loans, it wants so it can postpone those payments whenever. Nonetheless it’s various for personal loans.
Financial obligation can link you with a certified education loan relief professional which will help you review your alternatives.
Can the government tell private organizations what direction to go?
That’s where it gets complex, claims Logan Allec, A ca CPA and owner associated with financial obligation assistance web web site MoneyDoneRight.
Allec stated in a YouTube movie week that is last significantly more than 100,000 views that federal loans could be forgiven. However with personal loans, the U.S. Treasury would make re re payments toward your debt while boosting the borrower’s credit.
“The federal federal government can’t simply get in and state, ‘Zap these loans up to a private lender,’” the CPA said. “You reached compose their balance off by $10,000.”
Only a few borrowers will qualify. A caveat is had by the bill: to opt-in, the debtor should be “economically distressed.” You need to meet with the after criteria as of March 12:
The mechanics of this work is yet another concern, in accordance with University of Florida science that is political Beth Rosenson.
She indicates the us government would like to make payments that are direct avoid costs and corruption from the third-party.
So as to make this system take place, the U.S. Treasury would need to employ hundreds or lots and lots of brand brand new workers to meet up with the new need.
“Someone’s got to review [the applications] plus the conditions,” Rosenson stated.
Might not be the “hero” we are in need of
Steve Rhode, a personal debt expert and founder we we blog Get Out of financial obligation man, has small faith when you look at the bill eliminating the growing pupil financial obligation crisis.
You can find 45 million Americans struggling with education loan debt – owing a typical $37,000 per individual. The price tag on university is rising eight times faster compared to wage that is average.
“Paying down $10,000 worth of education loan financial obligation can be attractive,” Rhode said. “It appears attractive, nonetheless it’s maybe not likely to make a difference.”
Rhode seems present stimulus legislation is just treating the observable symptoms of a bigger infection. Cutting an amount of unsecured debt doesn’t increase investing to stimulate the economy.
“The HEROES Act is fifty per cent of a drop into the bucket,” Rhode stated. “We need certainly to work out how we’re going to tackle this issue that is whole of financial obligation instead of just responding for this situation.”

Furry fun: Dog Daze of Summer scheduled for Aug. 5
The Rotary Club of the High Desert has teamed up with Hesperia Recreation and Park District to host Dog Daze of Summer on Aug. 5 — a fun event for the entire community, including man’s best friend.
The event promises to be a good time for dog lovers who can search for a new dog during the even't pet adoption or just bring their canine companions to stroll around Hesperia Civic Plaza Park, where there will be various food, music, pet-related services and more on hand.
“Everyone who attends — whether as a vendor or as an attendee — will benefit from meeting other pet lovers as they share their love of their animals and learn about available services,” Hesperia Recreation and Park District General Manager Lindsay Woods said.
Vendors will display products and services that are available for dogs. Vendors will include pet stores and suppliers, animal shelters, animal rescues, pet groomers and more.
“Our residents recreate in a variety of ways and there is a segment of the population who recreate with their pets,” Woods said. “This event is a great opportunity for them to come together and meet other like-minded residents while promoting responsible pet ownership.”
There will be a DJ playing music throughout the event, along with pet contests conducted by the Rotary Club of the High Desert.
“It is interesting that Dog Daze will include music and contests. Not only will the dogs enjoy themselves, but so will the pet owners. Dog Daze is fun for everyone,” Hesperia Chamber of Commerce Administrative Assistant Maria Lopez said.
With dogs up for adoption, there will be pet meet and greets available for those who are looking to provide a “forever home” to a canine in need.
“Bringing people and their pets together is the most important aspect of this event. Another benefit is the many pet adoptions which occur during the event along with the promotion of responsible pet ownership,” Woods said.
Hesperia Recreation and Park District has held an annual dog event known as “Pet Walk” in previous years, although they have switched out the tradition for Dog Daze of Summer which is tied to their 60th anniversary with the theme “Making Life Better.”
For the first year, the event will also allow attendees and their furry family members to stay and watch a free movie in the park. Visitors are encouraged to bring blankets and lawn chairs from home to watch “The Secret Life of Pets.”
Dog Daze of Summer will take place between 3 and 7 p.m. and will be located at Hesperia Civic Plaza Park, 15833 Smoke Tree St., Hesperia. For more information, call 760-244-5488.
