The biennial tour showcases the architectural diversity of historic Hyde Park in midtown Kansas City, located between the Plaza and Crown Center.

The event includes a candlelight tour of four homes Friday evening, September 30, and the October 1 tour includes six homes:

* 3800 Campbell, a Prairie School home built in 1907 designed by Thomas Wight of the architectural firm Wilder and Wight whose body of work includes The Nelson Atkins Art Museum, Kansas City Life, and Redemptorist Church. Sixty-six windows connect the indoors to the outdoors.

* 4519 Gillham was built by Truman Wheelock in 1909. Wheelock built many homes in South Hyde Park and focused on building modern, affordable homes. Original historic features are paired with today's modern conveniences.

* 4233 Kenwood features Prairie Style, Kansas City Shirtwaist, and Craftsman details. The home has original detailed woodwork, box beams, and light fixtures. The current owner is only the fourth since the home was built in 1915.

* 3738 Harrison, this Kansas City shirtwaist was built in 1909. The home overlooks park space bordered by Harrison Parkway and features stunning views from decks on several levels.

* 3317 Charlotte is a Victorian Cottage built in 1905. The house has been remodeled to marry modern amenities and historic detail. It has nearly achieved carbon neutrality.

* 3717 Harrison, this Colonial was built in 1911 for Kate Hayes, the recently widowed wife of Kansas City's Chief of Police, John B. Hayes. In 1943, the home was converted into an apartment building and changed ownership ten times from the mid-1940s to late 2010. The home has undergone a complete historic restoration which included specially milled woodwork to replace missing original details.

Climate-controlled shuttle buses transport visitors to each stop on the Saturday tour. The Saturday tour also includes local bands, food trucks, and vendors.

"When you visit Hyde Park, the personality of the homes and the people who live in them show our neighborhood spirit," said Angie Splittgerber, HPNA's president. "We are constantly evolving as a community, and yet, we are anchored by the desire to preserve these amazing historic homes."

In 2013, the Historic Kansas City Foundation recognized The Hyde Park Homes Tour with a Community Catalyst Preservation Award for the contribution the Tour made to the reinvestment and revitalization of a historic neighborhood. The HPNA is a 501 (c)(3) not for profit corporation.

Five-minute Custom Splinting System Designed to Succeed Where Others Fail

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- MakeITMarket USA is excited to announce a new custom wound shield that protects injuries within five minutes. It's the USplint(TM) and it's American-made. Ideal for professional first aid kits, medical, dental and even veterinary applications, this new injury protection device is getting noticed.

It's already been tested and purchased by Special Forces and quickly covers wounds or burns. It offers a strong shield to protect affected areas from further injury.

Manufactured in Charlotte, N.C., USplint(TM) is patent-pending and is a fast and easy solution for people to use in the field. It can be carried everywhere and used anywhere. It's reusable, biocompatible, radiolucent and latex-free. It covers injuries over or under protective bandages.

So, how does it work? The USplint(TM) heats in water, on a non-stick surface or in an MRE bag to 140F in about one to two minutes. When heated, it becomes transparent and pliable which means it's ready to be formed and applied. Next, it takes about one minute for the shield to set at which point it returns to its original opaque and rigid state. It's self-securing and conforms to nearly any injury.

Product pieces can be heated together to cover larger areas and newly heated material can be added to set material to offer more strength or protection. It's also lightweight and low cost.

Kate Liddle, partner at MakeItMarket, says, "Here's a general injury shield that offers a fast and easy way to create a custom protective device in five minutes in virtually any situation."

Broken tooth? Jammed finger? Injured pet? Fractured wrist? The USplint(TM) ensures that no further damage will occur to a wound and provides peace of mind. It's available in multiple sizes and shapes, and comes ready to add to professional first aid kits right away. And, if an x-ray is required, it can be performed without removal.

"It's not just an upgrade to first-aid kits, it's a must-have," Liddle says.

It helps practitioners do more with less and helps patients with compliance.

ATLANTA, Ga. -- The Shimoda Film Company announces November 5th Movie Premiere of new Indie new film. Primo Brown from Atlanta, Georgia, has written and directed the film, "Money Back Guarantee."

Brown's new 'spine-tingling' film is sure to please adult audiences in every respect and leave them at the edge of their seats. 'Money Back Guarantee' is a film based on the underground multi-million dollar organ trafficking industry; and the highs and lows that come with it. "Money Back Guarantee" was shot entirely in Atlanta, Georgia. Brown says that it was important to shoot this film in his home city and state to showcase its beauty and unseen talent.

As one of the most popular states in America, Georgia has always served as a spotlight with its booming economy and increasing population. Georgia's capital, Atlanta, has a lot of successful businesses that aid in making it an economic powerhouse. The list of movies made in Georgia is staggering, including the likes of "The Walking Dead," "Fast & Furious 7" and "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire."

The debut film, "Money Back Guarantee" will have its theatrical debut on November 5, 2016 at the Aurora Cineplex in Roswell Georgia. The film will then later be released on various digital and DVD platforms. The Premiere is currently open to the public and tickets can be purchased online via Ticketbud ( https://moneybackguaranteemovie.ticketbud.com/money-back-guarantee-film-premiere ).

Founder and CEO Primo Brown, an Atlanta native, began his film career over 10 years ago. His early talents as a musician earned him entry into the music scene in Atlanta. He soon discovered that filmmaking was his passion. His humble beginnings as a filmmaker led him to producing and directing music videos for artists. As his talent and equipment evolved, Primo produced and directed his own feature film, "Jacob's Purgatory" in early 2012.

"'Jacob's Purgatory' was a great learning experience, from finance, casting to copyrights. After this film, I quickly acquired a taste to do more," says Primo Brown.

Fast forwarding to 2014, Primo collaborated on the creation of Elite Film Productions, a company that produces small to large budget movies.

14,000 Kids Benefit From Generous Donation from Redstone Bank

DENVER, Colo. -- On August 29, 2016. Redstone Bank made a generous donation of $50,000 to the Whiz Kids Program. The Whiz Kids program is an individualized tutoring program that has over 800 volunteers who tutor less fortunate students from schools throughout the Denver Metropolitan Area.

According to The U.S. Department of Education, "Research has consistently shown that well-designed tutoring programs that use volunteers and other nonprofessionals as tutors can be effective in improving children's reading skills. Students with below-average reading skills who are tutored by volunteers show significant gains in reading skills when compared with similar students who do not receive tutoring from a high-quality tutoring program."

The Whiz Kids organization has been helping kids who fall below the literacy line and poverty line for the past 25 years. It is with these incredible donations that volunteers and kids can benefit from such an outstanding program.

Tony Anderson CEO of Redstone Bank said, "We are incredibly honored to be investing in such a worthwhile cause."

How Whiz Kids Work:

When a school teams up with the Whiz Kids program, the schools' teachers are able to select which students will most benefit from this program. The site coordinator then uniquely pairs a student with a volunteer, and this pair will work together for the entire school year. Whiz Kids puts their volunteers through a very serious training process, so that the volunteers are properly equipped to help the student maximize learning during their time together. The exclusive focus, catered to the individual student, is what makes the overall success rate of Whiz Kids so high.

Jedidah Frederick, the Whiz Kids Program Administrator, says compassionately, "Whiz Kids is truly a family, volunteering and working for the Whiz Kids program, you are surrounded by people who share the same vision, the same mindset, and who carry the same heart."

Whiz Kids is always seeking volunteers. If you are interested in being a part of this outstanding organization, please contact them.

Donors Receive State and National Tax Credits:

The Whiz Kids program qualifies for the Colorado Child Care Contribution Tax Credit and a Federal Income Tax Credit so taxpayers can benefit from credits and deductions.

Get in touch with Whiz Kids, make a donation today or better yet donate and volunteer!

Are The PondHawks Chicago’s Best Kept Music Secret?

CHICAGO, Ill. -- Riverpool Records and The PondHawks announce the release of the new focus track, "Wire Me" from the album "Blue Light."

The up-and-coming indie band is making waves not only on the radio, but also in social media. They have a quarter of a million likes on Facebook and thousands of followers on Twitter, MySpace and Reverbnation.

WHAT IS THE SECRET?

Formed in 2007 by songwriting partners Mario Novelli and Jorie Gracen, The PondHawks have since captured a worldwide audience with catchy melodies and a pioneering approach to music. Some may call it retro-rock with a now sound, but the band's unique signature style falls into its own category.

The PondHawks have an artistry for storytelling, which evolves through meticulously crafted passages that create atmosphere and mood. Their music is driven by poetic lyricism that is clever and compelling. Stellar vocal harmonies intertwine seamlessly through musical interludes that unfold with stunning synchronicity and energy. Instruments are carefully selected to drive the melody and the emotional power of the song.

Both of their critically acclaimed albums, "The PondHawks Have Landed" (2010) and "Dreaming Over Ireland" (2012) received extensive Triple A FM radio airplay in the U.S. and massive Internet radio play worldwide with albums selling out their initial runs. "The PondHawks Have Landed" reached the #7 spot in the Top 10 (USA) Regional Albums of 2011.

The band's hit song "Drive," from "Dreaming Over Ireland," charted at #1 on Music World Radio's Top 20 Alternative Songs Euro Chart. Votes from thousands of fans from around the world kept the song at #1 for 13 weeks.

When The PondHawks' new holiday song "Winter Wine" premiered on a UK radio station in December 2015 - their first new music in three years - 45,842 listeners from around the world tuned in to listen. At the time the song aired, it was 11:50 p.m. EST and 4:50 a.m. in Europe.

At a recent outdoor concert headlined by the band, 8,000 fans showed up. Some traveled long distances from other states and many sported PondHawks T-shirts.

In The PondHawks' hometown of River Grove, a suburb of Chicago, phone calls from fans flooded the Mayor's office when the band's June concert was cancelled due to weather.

THE SECRET IS OUT:

The PondHawks newly-released third album "Blue Light," their first new album in four years, is making an impact on popular streaming services. Spotify, Google Play and Apple Music are driving album sales on iTunes (U.S., Europe) and Amazon.com (U.S., UK, Russia, Europe).

The album is receiving robust radio airplay in the U.S. and Europe with all 10 songs popping up on radio station playlists.

Two days after the album's first single, "Bitter Game" was released, it charted at #3 in the Top 15 Reverbnation Picks of the Week posted by A Journal of Musical Things.

Alan Cross, music critic at A Journal of Musical Things, writes: "The PondHawks have a mid-to-late '60's sound that brings to mind a combination of The Beatles and David Bowie."

Alan Haber of Pure Pop Radio said this about Blue Light: "This Chicago trio is a melodic treat, melding retro and contemporary influences for a decidedly catchy listening experience. Clever touches delight across the whole program, from the mandolin-powered 'Armadilla,' with its playful vocal harmonies, to the pop pleasures of four-on-the-floor pop-rocker 'Bitter Game.' Mario Novelli, Jorie Gracen and Michael Gillespie deliver a highly desirable album and win on all cylinders."

After one listen to "Blue Light," fans of The Beatles, Paul McCartney and Wings and ELO will be delighted to find a happy mix of pop, rock, and classic rock influences jam-packed with tasty Beatlesque flavors and psychedelia.

The PondHawks are currently the #1 ranked Indie band in the USA and the world on the Reverbnation charts. They were selected out of 3.7 million bands to join the prestigious Reverbnation Connect A&R group based in New York City. Connect's A&R Director, Matt DuFour described The PondHawks' music as "timeless."

On Aug. 29, The PondHawks release their second focus track "Wire Me" from "Blue Light."

Heart of Christmas: One Gift Bears Another

FORT WORTH, Texas -- "Heart of Christmas, The Secret History of The Littlest Wiseman," a gift film that pays tribute to philanthropists Mary D. and F. Howard Walsh, will premiere Sept. 7, 2016 at the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth. At age 9, Ben Tinsley became a participant and contributor to the annual Fort Worth Christmas pageant, "The Littlest Wiseman."

Forty years later, the local journalist has created a film as a tribute to production founders Mary D. & F. Howard Walsh. The movie, free to the public, premieres Sept. 7.

Ben Tinsley, a North Texas journalist and long-time participant and contributor to the annual "Play Pageant of the Nativity," wrote, directed and co-produced "Heart of Christmas" "because I felt the need to capture the incredible impact the Walshes had on generations of families that participated or attended 'The Littlest Wiseman.'"

Through performances and interviews, Tinsley's 57-minute film captures the essence of "The Littlest Wiseman," which will be produced for the 56th year in December. Admission to the nine performances is free - as it always has been - courtesy of The Walsh Foundation.

Tinsley was a member of the Texas Boys Choir between ages 9 and 11 and performed in the Christmas play twice.

His re-entry to "The Littlest Wiseman" family began nearly four decades later when he met Gary Bryant McGrath. McGrath is Executive Director of the Texas State Men and Boys Choir - the primary singing entity for "The Littlest Wiseman" performances. The state choir is comprised of Texas Boys Choir alumni and their sons. Tinsley joined the choir.

"I found it amazing that these Texas Boys Choir alums could be performing at 'The Littlest Wiseman' once more," Tinsley said. "I really didn't think this was even a possibility for me to ever do again."

During rehearsals, Tinsley began to realize much of what is great about "The Littlest Wiseman" production was fading. Mary D. and F. Howard Walsh had passed away. Composer Jack Noble White, formerly of the Texas Boys Choir, was aging. And the presence of the Texas Boys Choir was gone. Tinsley concluded that great memories were not adequately being preserved.

Dallas-Fort Worth area movie director Dan Millican introduced Tinsley to some colleagues and allowed them to use his camera equipment to shoot the documentary. Alicia Pascual, Tinsley's director of cinematography, filmed "Heart Of Christmas" during a three-day period in December 2015. The project took film editor Christine Copeland roughly a month to edit.

"Heart Of Christmas: The Secret History of The Littlest Wiseman" premieres in the movie theatre at the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, 3200 Darnell Street, at 6 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 7, 2016. Admission is free. Tickets will not be needed for admission.

After the premiere, the link to the movie will be available for free viewing online.
