Omaha Bicycle Co. in Benson announces that it will close this month - Omaha World-Herald

Posted: 20 Aug 2019 08:34 AM PDT

The Omaha Bicycle Co. will close for business at the end of August, the owner announced on the company's Facebook page.

"There's no good way to start this post so I'll just get right to it: the Omaha Bicycle Company will close for business at the end of this month," the post from Sarah Johnson reads. "I really can't say thank you enough to the amazing community that has held us up for the past nearly 7 years. It has been quite the ride and we've met sooooo many amazing people along the way."

The bike shop, at 6015 Maple St., also sells coffee and tea. It has sponsored group bike rides for years. 

In an interview, Johnson, 38, said the business is in good shape financially. But she said she has been dealing with health-related issues and has had trouble attracting bike-repair people to Omaha.

It's difficult, she said, "finding and keeping — attracting — employees to a city that really isn't doing much for bikes."

The Greater Omaha Chamber of Commerce has just launched ConnectGO to come up with a unified transportation strategy for the Omaha metro area.

The initiative is partly based on the need to attract a younger workforce that tends to prefer getting around by bus, bikes or other alternatives to cars. 

Johnson noted that she opened on Halloween 2012 and has enjoyed promoting bike-related events and advocating for cycling. "I'm sad, but I'm proud," she said. "People have always been my favorite part."

Her Facebook page says the neighborhood shop aimed to make the community better "by encouraging two-wheeled transportation and conversation. . . . From croissants to electric bicycles, we've got you covered."

Commenters thanked Johnson for her impact on Benson and bicycling. "More than anything, we will miss the community you built."

Johnson said she started in the bike industry when she was 20 and ran a bike and coffee shop in Colorado before moving back to Omaha. 

"It has definitely been the toughest decision I've had to make," she said of closing the business. "You just kind of got to recognize when it's time to say, 'See you later.'"

Johnson noted in the Facebook post that if people wanted to help, they could "COME BUY SOME STUFF FOR CHEAP! Tip the baristas extra big! Spread the word about the sale!

"Regular hours this week, shortened next week."

Yolanda Stratter, who ran Allston-Brighton’s iconic Disk’overy used books and records shop, dies at 78 - The Boston Globe

Posted: 18 Aug 2019 01:16 PM PDT

She was also among the merchants who helped turn Allston, where Disk'overy operated for a quarter century, and Brighton, where it relocated for several more years, into neighborhoods where many new residents now choose to stay, rather than leave when they can spring for a tonier address.

"I love music and books," she told the Globe in 2012 as she prepared to shutter the final Brighton location of Disk'overy, whose fortunes were buffeted by changing shopping habits and online availability of the merchandise she sold.

"It's a nice place," she said of her store. "I'm happy."

No price could be placed on the joy Ms. Stratter offered to customers free of charge.

"She was such a warm and friendly and outgoing person," said Thalia Zedek, a musician who, like O'Connell, walked into Disk'overy as a customer and walked out as a friend. "It was a great store, but it was her who made it so great. She made a really big impression on everyone who met her."

The store was just as unforgettable, and subject to the occasional avalanche of tottering books.

"It was organized chaos, but she really knew where everything was," said Leah Kinthaert, a longtime close friend and customer. "People who know her and respected her realize how much work she had to have done to buy all those books and organize them. That was part of the charm of the store. You would go in looking for one thing and come out with something else, too."

Now and then, Ms. Stratter's father or a sibling spelled her, but for nearly every day of the store's 30-plus years, she was behind the counter, assisted by a series of sleepy cats — including her final one, Mono Loco.

What she sold wasn't so much eclectic as exclusive. "She did not carry junk," O'Connell said, adding that if someone dropped off books that didn't meet Ms. Stratter's standards, "she'd leave them on her stoop for people to have for free."

Bestsellers rarely found a home in the display window. "I can't do it," Ms. Stratter told the Globe in 2006. "Against my religion."

Instead, customers might spot 19th-century novelist Jane Austen sharing window space with 1970s counterculture darling Tom Robbins.

Such selections "show a conscious design," Rob Price wrote in one of the pieces collected in an online pagethat paid tribute to Ms. Stratter and her store when it was still open. "What she puts out there makes you think she might be some sort of guru."

She carefully picked each offering and seemed to have absorbed so much of her stock that she could dispense advice to every shopper and words of praise for anything anyone chose.

"She was always recommending something," Zedek recalled. "Every book or record I bought from her she seemed to have listened to or read. The store was curated by her."

Ms. Stratter "knew all about everything," O'Connell said. "She was constantly reading. And she always had all kinds of music blasting. People appreciated the music — they would learn about music from her. They'd say, 'What's this?' And it would be Miles Davis."

Disk'overy became a place to nurture new tastes in writers and musicians — not to mention new friends, who sometimes met for the first time in the store's aisles.

"She seemed to cultivate almost a salon atmosphere," Kinthaert said.

"It was like a café. You could go and hang out there for hours. I could sit on a milk crate and read for a good three hours with my coffee," Kinthaert added. "She wasn't just trying to sell you a book. She was really invested in young people and was interested in your education — and in learning from people as well."

Ms. Stratter would accompany much younger friends to nightclubs, concerts, art openings, and lectures.

"We went out to see bands all the time," O'Connell said. "She danced and danced. She wouldn't get off the floor. She had total energy."

Indeed, her energy was so endless that along with being stunned to hear that cancer would quickly end Ms. Stratter's life, friends were surprised to learn she was much older than they thought.

"I never knew her age until recently when she said, 'I'm almost 80,' " O'Connell recalled, "and I said, 'What?' "

The oldest of 10 siblings, Yolanda Stratter was born in 1941 in Lima, Peru, a daughter of Augusto Puemape and Irene Stratter. She and many of her sisters and brothers use one or both of their parents' last names.

The family ran a store and restaurant in Lima. Ms. Stratter left behind her formal education before finishing high school to work and help support the family.

A connoisseur of culture, she helped out at the cinema next door to the family business, where she watched movies and became enamored of America.

"We were having a hard time. We needed to get out," said her sister Soledad Stratter, who lives in Allston in a house she and Yolanda shared with many relatives. "She wanted to come here because she was so fascinated with life in the United States. She decided she was smart enough to get out of the country and help us."

Ms. Stratter emigrated in her early 20s, working in various jobs before launching Disk'overy, and she encouraged the rest of her family to follow her.

A service has been held for Ms. Stratter, who in addition to Soledad leaves five brothers, Virgilio of Peru, Cesar of Allston, Julio of Miami, Roberto of Revere, and Dino of Brighton; and three other sisters, Rita and Irene of Allston, and Dora of Brighton.

To satisfy her wide-ranging cultural appetite, Ms. Stratter went to performances of all sorts. She might dance the night away at a club one evening, then spot a Harvard University listing and say, "Oh, Susan Sontag's speaking, we've got to go," Kinthaert recalled.

"She would not miss anything," Soledad said.

Because Ms. Stratter gave discounts to artists, musicians, and writers who frequented her store, she was welcomed wherever she went.

A Facebook tribute by Zedek drew numerous comments, including from those who left Boston long ago — former customers who had once basked in Ms. Stratter's affection.

"She introduced me to a lot of nightclubs," Kinthaert said. "When she showed up at a rock show, people would say, 'Oh my God, the Disk'overy lady's at my show,' and they'd feel really special."

Mom of College Student Tells Parents to 'Enjoy All of the Moments' Because Time Flies - Yahoo Lifestyle

Posted: 20 Aug 2019 10:42 AM PDT

Despite being in a sleep-deprived haze most of the time, parents of infants know that time is going to fly, and they'll look back and miss the days when their child was a baby. But a seasoned mom named Amy Betters-Midtvedt, who writes on Hiding in the Closet with Coffee, wants parents who have kids of all ages to know that embracing the moment is so important. After all, as Betters-Midtvedt says it can feel like you've gone from giving birth to preparing your kid for college in the blink of an eye.

In a piece on Love What Matters, Betters-Midtvedt wrote, "So, we left the hospital this morning with an infant and apparently drove directly to the Target college shop. Parents of littles, that is legit how fast it goes."

She went onto note, "I know that's not how it feels when you haven't slept for days, and it's completely OK to just flick me right in the forehead when I tell you to enjoy all the moments. But I'm going to tell you anyway. You see we seasoned parents have to say it… we have to. Because we cannot believe we are here when we were you yesterday. Consider it part of our therapy."

Betters-Midtvedt said her message is how she and other seasoned parents "make sure that every now and then (when you want to run away because we remember that too), you have a little voice reminding you to hang on in, because this too shall pass far more quickly than it feels like."

She continued, "And please feel free to hug me when I tell you this part is super-fun too. Parenthood is pretty much walking by the cute little baby flip flops and swimsuits while dying inside and wishing to have it all back and also being super excited to help your sweet new adult choose their first grown-up towels and not being able to wait to see what she does in life."

The blogger wrote that she "gives us all permission to have all the feels. No apologies and no excuses. Because it all really does go so fast… I'm just as annoyed as you are with this and swore, I'd never say this to you, but here we are friends."

Her conclusion: "Now go kiss whatever size kid is sitting next to you… even if they are driving you crazy. You can thank me later."

Many fellow seasoned parents on the Love What Matters Facebook page agreed with Betters-Midtvedt's message. Alyssa Parrott wrote, "I often find myself holding a door for a young mom, or smiling as she walks by with a screaming child, and say, 'Hang in there, I remember those days. You're doing a great job!' Sometimes they need to hear it."

Amber Gavin shared, "I'm on my lunch break from work sitting here...for my baby's first job interview. Never mind the fact I just left the hospital with her tiny 7-pound body nestled in my arms. It goes at warp speed!"

Tamara Davis agreed with Betters-Midtvedt's message, but explained why she wouldn't necessarily share it with moms of babies: "This is so true! I don't ever say this to a young mother though, because when they are little, those days are long, and it's hard to appreciate tiny toddlers having an epic meltdown in the middle of the checkout lane. I do tell young mothers that it gets easier and seriously more fun though."

It's true that "moms of littles" would appreciate a nuanced reassurance from veteran parents. As Maria Frantzen wrote, "We get it, we do! Even those of us with really young kids can already understand how fast it goes, and we can only imagine how it feels later! We appreciate and completely understand the sentiment, but sometimes we need acknowledgement of the difficulty of parenting, and not just dismissal of the hard stuff."

She continued, "Perhaps what more seasoned parents can try saying, if they feel the need to say anything, is something more along the lines of, 'I remember how hard those days were! Feels like just yesterday, but it all went by so fast. One day, it's the good moments that will stand out, but all of it, the good and the hard, is worth it to see them grown. Hang in there!'"

It's true. No matter what side of the parenthood timeline you're on, or how quickly time seems to be going, you'll undoubtedly appreciate hearing those three powerful words: "It's worth it."

Portland's Sizzle Pie says can't cut it in Seattle, shutting down Capitol Hill pizzeria and Dark Bar - CHS Capitol Hill Seattle News

Posted: 20 Aug 2019 11:08 AM PDT

Burnside-born Sizzle Pie could make its recipe of metal and pizza work in Portland, Eugene and even Reno. But Seattle? Not so much. The pizzeria chain announced Tuesday it is closing its Capitol Hill joint and sister venue Dark Bar at the end of August due to what it says are the rising costs of doing business in Seattle:

It is with a heavy heart that we announce the imminent closure of our Capitol Hill location on August 31, 2019. We are eternally grateful for all of the wonderful years that we were able to be a part of the Capitol Hill community. We've worked alongside so many great organizations and local businesses in our time here and we will miss you all dearly.

"Unfortunately, the continually rising overhead and operating costs in Seattle have brought us to the very difficult decision to close this location," the statement reads.

A spokesperson for Sizzle Pie said he couldn't add much to the statement but did say the company "supports a fair wage" and the statement wasn't meant as much as a jab at Seattle as an explanation that sales were not keeping up with costs in Seattle and elements like the new sweetened beverage tax. UPDATE: Chief operating officer Bob Peyton declined to comment on the statement.

All other Sizzle Pie locations in Oregon and Nevada will remain open, the spokesperson said.

Dark Bar

Sizzle Pie and the Dark Bar arrived on E Union on the backside of the Pike/Pine nightlife scene in the spring of 2016. "Our whole approach is to have something for everyone," Matt Jacobson, who founded Sizzle Pie with partner Mikey McKennedy in 2011, told CHS at the time. With a menu of party-flavored standards, vegan, and gluten free pies, plus really, really loud music, the shop turned out slices and pick-up orders for Pike/Pine revelers and patrons headed to nearby Optimism Brewing.

The location was previously home to the Auto Battery sports bar and Po Dog hot dogs. There are no businesses yet publicly lined up for the pizza joint and bar spaces. The Sizzle Pie spokesperson declined to offer more details on the timing of the closure but it is common for leases to have opt-out periods.

The exit of Sizzle Pie will leave a large hole in the slow expansion of Pike/Pine south into the gap between E Pike and Seattle University. There are still signs of growth. E Union's Metier just underwent an overhaul and brought in new partner Homegrown to add its cycling-focused offerings. Meanwhile, the zone south of E Pike is also facing more possible change with the Central Agency Building development now on the market.

Chicken boxes to return to Home Office with handwritten knife crime solutions - The Guardian

Posted: 19 Aug 2019 11:25 AM PDT

A youth-focused trio will lobby the government with knife crime solutions written on chicken boxes that had been distributed by the Home Office.

The move by Word on the Curb is a response to the government's #knifefree chicken box, which was described as "embarrassing", "stupid" and "borderline racist" by critics after being unveiled last week.

The Home Office spent more than £57,000 distributing 321,000 chicken boxes to 210 outlets in England and Wales. The chicken boxes were printed with real-life stories of young people who had chosen to pursue positive activities instead of carrying a knife.

In response, Hayel Wartemberg, Ndubuisi Uchea and Shiva Tarbhaker took to the streets of London and gathered responses from members of the public, including practical solutions to knife crime.

The trio, a part of content agency Word on the Curb, came up with the plan after discussing the campaign on Friday night. Uchea said: "It was really beautiful to see people coming up with ideas and then other people coming over and reading those ideas."

Solutions offered by members of the public included interest-free business loans for young people at risk, specialised officers in schools and investing in education and youth services.

Uchea said: "A lot of the time, the policymakers are so far removed from those people living the reality. An interest-free business loan would help turn someone who is running a business as a drug dealer, which does take some business sense, into something with a better purpose.

"People find it [the Home Office campaign] offensive and think it's a waste of money. How can they justify spending £50,000 on chicken boxes when youth services have been cut so drastically?"

Diane Abbott called the government's campaign crude and offensive. The shadow home secretary said: "[The Home Office] would do better to invest in our communities, not demonise them."

Uchea said: "A lot of the time people miss the mark because they do not speak to young people, or the people in their target demographic. We wanted to get on the street and get some real insight into the issue.

"I can see why they chose this campaign, but if they had just talked to anyone, they would have been told it's offensive and they had missed the mark completely."

Word on the Curb plans to present the boxes to the Home Office on Tuesday morning.
