In TRAILS, players hike back and forth along the trail, collecting rocks, acorns and leaves; taking pictures; and encountering wildlife to gain bonuses.

Welcome to the city of Machi Koro, the Japanese card game that is sweeping the world. You’ve just been elected Mayor. Congrats! Unfortunately the citizens have some pretty big demands: jobs, A theme park, a couple of cheese factories and maybe even a radio tower. A tough proposition since the city currently consists of a wheat field, a bakery and a single die. Armed only with your trusty die and a dream, you must grow Machi Koro into the largest city in the region. You will need to collect income from developments, build public works and steal from your neighbor’s coffers. Just make sure they aren’t doing the same to you!

TOKAIDO $40 Each player is a traveler crossing the “East sea road,” one of the most magnificent roads of Japan. While traveling, players will meet people, taste fine meals, collect beautiful items, discover great panoramas, and visit temples and wild places. At the end of the day, when everyone has arrived at the end of the road, you’ll have to be the most initiated traveler – which means that you’ll have to be the one who discovered the most interesting and varied things.

In Strawberry Sunset, create a vibrant and flourishing strawberry patch - one more fruitful than your neighbor's. In this quick strategy game, you will have until sunset to grow as many strawberry plants as you can, while landscaping your garden. Add unique features to your design, such as koi ponds, gnomes, and zen gardens.

ON Auto | Annual New Model Roundup

Ewing Subaru of Plano General Man ager Cade Simpson and his sales staff are celebrating the arrival of the all-new fifth generation Subaru WRX and increased availability of the popular Ascent 3-row SUV.

Fifth-generation WRX Decades of Subaru championship rally engineering have led to the all-new fifthgeneration Subaru WRX with the most advanced features, design, and perfor mance in its history. Powered by a new 271 hp 2.4-liter turbocharged Subaru BOX ER® engine paired with either a 6-speed manual transmission or new automatic Subaru Performance transmission, the WRX also has a new wide-body exterior design and aggressive stance. At the front, Subaru’s signature hexagonal grille is partnered with compact LED headlights and a broad front hood scoop. Prominent character lines across the front, sides, and rear further emphasize the sports sedan’s strength and performance capability. The rear deck lid has an integrated low-profile rear spoiler in matching body color, and the taillights glow with a look reminiscent of volcanic magma. The WRX is now built on the Subaru Global Platform, which offers increased safety, improved dynamics, and reductions in noise, vibration, and harshness. WRX pushes its razor-sharp handling even further with a reengineered suspension.

Every WRX in the lineup is packed with state-of-the-art technology. Nextgeneration available features include a new STARLINK Multimedia 11.6inch touchscreen and the protection of enhanced EyeSight Driver Assist Technology. The new WRX cockpit is designed for comfortable, confident highperformance driving, and the D-shaped

steering wheel is its centerpiece. With excellent weight and feel, it gives you ergonomic control and near-instant response from the lightning-quick 13.5:1-ratio dual-pinion steering.

Also, WRX adds a new top-of-the-line GT trim which has the Subaru Performance Transmission as standard. The GT offers a first-ever for WRX, new electronically controlled dampers that can tailor the dynamic performance with Comfort, Normal, and Sport settings. The Drive Mode Select offers additional options to configure steering feel, damper settings, SI-Drive settings, and more, with up to 430 different customization options.

Equipped with a 2.4-liter turbocharged BOXER engine, the Ascent produces 260 horsepower and 277 lb.-ft. of torque. The BOXER engine is paired with a hightorque Lineartronic® CVT featuring an 8-speed manual mode function and steering wheel paddle shifters to give the driver added control. This powertrain allows up to 5,000-lb.towing capacity with standard Trailer Stability Assist. With 8.7 inches of ground clearance and all trim levels coming standard with Subaru’s legendary Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive and X-MODE® with Hill Descent Control for exceptional all-weather and trail-driving capability, the Ascent offers standard capability the Honda Pilot, Kia Telluride, and Hyundai Palisade can’t match.

Built to Last The Ascent is well-built in the U.S.A. for long-lasting quality. Considering 96% of Subaru vehicles sold in the last 10 years are still on the road today, more than Honda or Toyota brands, you can count on it being part of your family for all the adventures ahead.

F orty-eight years ago, on the first day of school, The Episcopal School of Dallas founder Father Swann gathered around a crackling campfire with a group of students and spoke of the importance of community, honor, and integrity. These pillars have upheld ESD throughout the years as they have transformed the independent school landscape in Dallas. With a holistic learning environment that is rich in real-world experience, a strong student culture that focuses on inclusivity, and an impressive track record of academic excellence, ESD is a transformative educational experience that shapes the lives of all who walk the halls.

ON magazine | Family 2022 | 31

These beliefs are the north star of ESD, where they encourage each student to strive to be globally-minded, confident, and hard-working.

32 | ON magazine | Family 2022

There’s a common concern for new students enrolling at ESD that it’s difficult to start school as a new middle or high school student in a K-12 school and may think that all students know each other and that it will be challenging to make friends and integrate. However, ESD is proud of its welcoming students and staff, who make every new student feel like they belong. Each year, approximately 20-22 new 5th graders start middle school (where the typical 5th-grade class size is 85 students), and 25-30 new 9th graders begin high school as new freshmen. David Baad, Head of School, created the Campfire Program in the spirit of Father

It assists new and current students and their families in successfully transitioning into the school through ongoing social and academic guidance and Campfire family events. With an intentionally small student body, every student is able to have a personalized education experience in which they are known and cherished, nurtured, and Connectingloved. with nature is an essential aspect of ESD, where the well-rounded Outdoor Education Program engages students with experiential learning opportunities that stretch beyond the walls of the classroom. This program is further enhanced with ESD’s 122-acre Outdoor Education Center, Wolf Run Ranch. Through the trips to the ranch, students learn about themselves, others, and the natural world around them. Founded in 2014 by the Dads’ Partnership, The Eastin Family WORX Internship Program enables qualified students to garner real-world experience, connects them with mentors, and gives them invaluable in-depth exposure to their fields of interest. The ESD Office of College Guidance works with a variety of partners to match rising seniors to summer internship opportunities in a wide array of local businesses. Students who demonstrate readiness and pass the interview process are accepted into the WORX program.

For more information on The Episcopal School of Dallas, please visit ESDallas.org.

The goal of enrolling the most qualified and dynamic students is of the utmost importance at ESD. While a quality education is a worthy investment in a child’s future, it can be a costly undertaking. ESD is committed to providing tuition assistance to qualifying students who would otherwise be unable to consider attending. In the ‘20-’21 school year alone, over 4.5 million dollars of tuition assistance was awarded. ESD is the only school in its peer group with a convenient calculator to check qualifications for tuition assistance. This aid is a grant, not a loan, and will not impact any chance of a child being accepted.

The ESD Advisory System is the cornerstone of day-to-day Middle and Upper School Life. Based upon Father Swann’s firm belief that students should never feel anonymous, the small advisory groups ensure that everyone can feel accepted, the power of cliques is minimized, and adults can help guide students along their path to adulthood. Every morning, eight to ten students from the same grade come together to attend chapel. Middle School students eat lunch together every day with their advisory at the round tables in the Daryl Johnston Family Dining Commons, while Upper School advisories come together once a week to dine as a group. Through the advisory program, students complete community service projects, have one-on-one meetings with their group advisor, and bond over activities at Wolf Run ESDRanch.believes that Service to Others is one of the highest callings for students and has created numerous opportunities to serve the local community. With food drives and special projects in the Lower School, through the formation of student organized drives and service clubs in the Middle School, and with required community service hours and mission trips in the Upper School, these age-appropriate service opportunities encourage the idea that every act of service, big or small, can have a tremendous impact.

Canadel is a furniture company based out of Québec and delivers some of the nation's highest quality furniture pieces with unique touches.

There are some specific styles currently trending in the dining room. If it's not warm walnut and angled legs that identify mid-century modern, it's a white oak dining table with contrasting wooden chairs that is a defining feature of the modern farmhouse style.

What’s your opinion on complete dining sets (chairs/benches included) versus mixing and matching between brands and styles? Some dining sets -as is- can be perfect for some spaces, but I think mixing and matching a dining room set can be the best way to go! Not only does it add flair and interest, it can also allow the space to go in any direction you want. If a customer is trying to combine a couple of different styles, mixing in metals, woods, fabrics, and leathers can be a great way to unite the styles and execute the design. Can you list a few other must-haves for gatherings that can be found at NFM? Anytime we have gatherings, I want to make an impression on my guests, and most of all, I want them to feel comfortable. Beyond furniture, NFM has a vast assortment of accessories perfect for cozying up and enhancing any space ranging from hand-made centerpieces and extremely large wall art to decorative throw pillows.

The food you eat can be either the safest and most powerful form of medicine or the slowest form of poison. Many of our patients consult with us concerned with common signs their food is causing them to age poorly: fatigue, brain fog and forgetfulness, weight gain, bone and muscle loss, skin and complexion changes, postural changes and poor sleep quality. At our TruAge Wellness Center, Dr. Tim Wright is at the forefront of educating our patients on what are the most common inflammatory foods that should be avoided. You

How to Stop the Inflammation that Speeds up Aging!

What’s the key to a healthier you? Your diet. Diet plays a major role when it comes to aging and inflammation. The foods you consume every day have the power to heal or to harm and inflame your body. Following an antiinflammatory, nutrient dense eating plan is important! So read on, as Dr. Tim and I show you how to ensure you keep chronic inflammation at bay and live an anti-inflammatory lifestyle!

5. Farm Raised Fish are raised in crowded conditions, are often given antibiotics and generally have more inflammatory Omega-6 Fatty Acids due to the suboptimal food they are fed. Choose wildcaught fish as they are a healthy choice for Omega-3 Fatty Acids which is a necessary nutrient needed to fight inflammation.

3. Artifical Sweeteners and Flavor Enhancers, most known as Aspartame, Sucralose and Saccharin may be sweet but are not healthy. They are highly inflammatory and have a neurotoxic effect on your brain and may lead to mood disorders. Choose natural sweeten ers as mentioned above.

Inflammation + Aging = Inflammaging . In other words, chronic low-grade inflammation leads to accelerated signs of aging in our bodies – and in our skin! Every degenerative condition such as diabetes, heart disease, dementia, Alzheimer’s disease, fatty liver disease, cancer, osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, etc. is characterized by chronic inflammation. At the skin level, chronic, low-grade inflammation leads to an increase in free radicals – the source of accelerated signs of aging such as fine lines, wrinkles, and more.

7. Highly Processed Oils and fried foods use vegetable oils derived from corn, canola, soybean, safflower, cottonseed and peanut. These oils are commonly used in restaurants and commercially prepared foods. They are high in inflam matory Omega-6 and a diet too high in Omega-6 can contribute to pain and dis ease. Choose alternative organic oils such as coconut, avocado, olive and flaxseed.

Every year comes a new birthday. Aging is inevitable and a normal part of life – but aging poorly is not. As we age, we all go through changes, but it doesn’t mean that the changes have to affect your life negatively. The answer? Slow down InflammAGING!

1. Gluten. This protein is found in a vari ety of grains and makes up many of our commercial foods such as bread, baked goods, condiments, beer, pizza, pasta, and cereal. Choose gluten-free foods that are made with alternative flours such as almond, coconut and cassava.

2. Sugar. When you eat too much sugar, your body simply cannot process it quickly enough. As a result, it releases pro-inflammatory messengers which will damage your body’s organs and metab olism. Choose sweet foods that have a low glycemic index, do not contain fructose or are sweetened with natural monk fruit, stevia or xylitol.

48 | ON magazine | Family 2022

4. Conventionally Raised Meat/Processed Meat and Dairy. How commercial animals are cared for is extremely impor tant to your health. Any meat that is not organic and not being treated with the highest standards is not the best option. Conventional dairy is not organic and is not obtained from pasture-raised ani mals. Hormones, antibiotics and GMO’s coming from grain-fed animals is highly inflammatory. This will also include pro cessed cured and deli meats. Choose pasture-fed and pasture finished meats and grass-fed raw dairy. If you have trouble finding local sources of healthy alternatives, U.S. Wellness Meats is a great choice to order on-line.

6. Food Additives and Preservatives have no nutritional value and are often inflammatory. MSG and High Fructose Corn Syrup have been associated with weight gain, metabolic syndrome and other health issues. Choose organic whole foods and natural products that do not have additives and preservatives.

The first step in scar correction is to remodel and break up the scar tissue found in the deep layers of the skin. There are generally three main options - Laser Resurfacing, Micro Needling, and Secret RF!

ResurFX Laser Resurfacing applies laser energy in tiny beams of light into the skin, much like a lawn being aerated, with little plugs of laser treatment. By treating micro-islands of skin, the surrounding untreated skin drives the healing process, filling in the treated area with healthy skin and without the long-term downtime associated with traditional skin resurfacing technologies. This technique causes less damage and allows for a more powerful treatment!

Although lasers are successful at treating scars, they are often difficult to use on patients with darker skin tones since the heat generated by a laser may increase the risk of pigmentation. To find a solution for those who cannot use laser treatments, I recommend DermaPEN , an advanced medical skin-needling therapy. DermaPEN is an FDA-approved electronic device that uses multiple fine needles to vertically pierce the skin. The physical nature of “skin-needling” breaks up the fibrous and uneven scar tissue and stimulates the growth of new tissue. DermPEN MicroNeedling can be safely performed on all skin colors, and since there is no heat involved, the risk of hyperpigmentation is minimal.

The Secret RF is a supercharged DermaPEN treatment that combines Skin Needling (or micro-needling) and Radiofrequency energy. Both are well-established treatments normally performed separately to jump-start collagen production and improve the texture of your skin. The ‘beauty’ of the Secret RF MicroNeedling System is that the combination of both these technologies in one sing le treatment provides the ultimate results in skin remodeling, tightening and skin rejuvenation. The Secret RF has outstanding results for all skin types with very low risk of pigmentation and side effects – a key difference when compared to laser treatments. Unsettling scars are one of the top skin concerns patients seek for cosmetic correction. When assessing scars, physicians need to address all aspects including a change in color, texture, size and location. Scars occur at different depths in the deeper layers of skin, called the dermis, and in different skin types. The success of scar removal is to choose the correct treatment. BEFORE
