I was wondering if you could offer me some advice on how to get rid of my man boobs? My diet hasn’t been great in the past, but I’ve been trying to eat a little better over the past couple of months. I was eating a lot of fast food, but now I’ve been making sandwiches with deli turkey and whole grain bread. Veggies, not so much. But I have been eating a lot more fresh fruit instead of the candies I was having. Protein bars are good for snacks. I was also drinking 3-4 beers every night before dinner, but now I’m down to just 1-2 light beers per day. So, now it’s back up at the gym where I’m lifting weights and doing cardio 3 times per week now. I used to be much thinner than I am now, but even when I was thin I still had man boobs? I would appreciate anything you could suggest that might help. Thanks,
Hi, John. The issue of man boobs (gynecomastia) is more common than you might think. Endocrine system abnormalities initate this condition. More specifically, low testosterone, high levels of estrogen, prolactin, and body fat. This is the ultimate ‘man boob’ trifecta! The good news is that in most cases this condition can be managed naturally, without requiring surgery. It’s really just a matter of understanding exactly what foods and other factors have a negative impact on your endocrine system.
For example, you said you were eating a lot of fast food. I’m happy to hear you’ve changed that! I want you to remember that fast food and processed foods are generally high in phytoestrogens. These are chemicals that mimic estrogen in the body and bind to estrogen receptors, thus initiating estrogenic side effects like increased body fat and the development of female like breast tissue.
Soybeans are the most notorious phytoestrogen containing food that people consume. Most people are oblivious as to how much soy they actually ingest. Food products like bread, cereals, protein bars, instant protein shakes, prepackaged meals, frozen dinners, pastries, crackers, granola bars, and processed meat products are generally loaded with some form of soy. In other words, you’re going to want to go easy on your whole grain bread and also make sure your protein bars aren’t made with soy protein isolate or soy period! The more you can avoid these types of food products, the better off you’ll be!
The same foods that contain soy usually contain high amounts of polyunsaturated fats as well. Polyunsaturated fatty acids contribute to inflammation and estrogen synthesis while reducing testosterone and DHT— the primary hormones that prevent breast tissue formation in men. Try and avoid anything made with soybean oil, corn oil, canola oil, or sunflower oil.
Avoid Polyunsaturated Fats
Also, beware of the many butter substitutes on the market. Most of them are loaded with one or more of these oils. As far as your hormones are concerned, you’re better off using real butter than any of these products. I personally use a butter flavored extra virgin coconut oil that I buy at a local health food store. I actually like the taste of even better than real butter!
It’s also great that you’ve cut back your beer consumption. However, I implore you to cut it back even further. Beer is one of the WORST things you drink if you don’t want man boobs! The hops added to beer is a strong phytoestrogen, so it will emulate estrogen in your body the same way soy does.
To add insult to injury, the barely in most beers can increase prolactin levels in the body. Prolactin is the hormone females produce more of to increase breast size and promote lactation during pregnancy. Not only will this encourage the development of man boobs, but prolactin will also hammer down your testosterone levels! Anytime prolactin levels go up, testosterone levels will almost always go down. If you really feel the need for an alcoholic beverage, try a 4 oz glass of dry red wine like Cabernet or Malbec It won’t be nearly as detrimental to your hormones!
Vegetables Are A Must
I know you’re not a fan of vegetables. But, if you’re really serious about getting rid of those man boobs, there are certain types of vegetables you should force yourself to eat on a daily basis because it will help significantly! Narrow your veggie focus to primarily cruciferous vegetables, such as broccoli, cauliflower, kale, cabbage, Brussels sprouts, and collard greens.
These foods contain healthy chemicals known as phytochemicals that work to reduce estrogen production in the body by blocking the aromatase enzyme that converts your precious testosterone into estrogen. One of these phytochemicals, known as indole-3-carbinol, is especially effective for this purpose.
Avoid Platic Containers
Something I think is also important to point out is the containers you eat and drink out of can also have a profound effect on estrogen levels in your body. Avoid storing food in or heating food in plastic containers. Same goes for bottled beverages. Avoid drinking bottled beverages or those stored in plastic containers. The same goes for food and beverages stored in aluminum cans. The reason is that plastic containers contain a chemical known as bisphenol A (BPA). This chemical is known as a xenoestrogen which mimics estrogen in the body the same way that phytoestrogens do. Even more germane is the fact that BPA has been linked to many degenerative diseases like cancer and diabetes.

One more thing I would consider is taking a supplement to help support your natural testosterone levels and also combat excess estrogen in the body. Test Charge is such a product that will cover those bases. This is one of my “must-have” supplements! Based on user feedback, I know other men out there share these same sentiments.
I hope you find this information valuable and wish you all best of success with your health and future goals!

Asheville reservoir rose a foot in one hour during heavy rain
ASHEVILLE – City government had drawn down the North Fork Reservoir ahead of flooding Tuesday night and Wednesday morning, but heavy rains refilled the lake in a matter of hours, a city spokeswoman said.
"The city has been releasing small amounts of water from the reservoir to create capacity, but at 2 o'clock yesterday there was two feet of capacity in the reservoir. An hour later there was one," city spokeswoman Polly McDaniel said Wednesday.
The reservoir filled up at 5:30 p.m. Tuesday, McDaniel said, which required that the city release water to prevent damage to the dam.
"Although water was already being released days in advance, the amount of rainfall that entered the reservoir so quickly, 5 inches of rain on Tuesday, made it necessary for the city to release additional water," she said. "Safety is foremost in these decisions."
The city's management of the North Fork Reservoir became controversial in the aftermath of widespread flooding in 2004 that affected Biltmore Village and most of Western North Carolina.
Some Biltmore Village merchants complained then that the city should have done more to store floodwaters in the reservoir, which is located northwest of Black Mountain on the North Fork of the Swannanoa River. Water released at the dam eventually makes its way to Biltmore Village.
The reservoir was built to provide drinking water, not as a flood control measure, but the city re-examined its policies around management of the reservoir following the 2004 floods.
Most of the village, built in the late 1800s to support the Biltmore Estate, lies in a floodplain. New structures like McDonald's and Zoe's Kitchen are required to be built higher than the level water might be expected to reach in a 100-year flood or to have devices to keep floodwater out, but owners are not required to elevate or otherwise flood-proof older buildings.
The city communicated with a group of businesspeople in Biltmore Village Tuesday night to let them know about the danger of flooding, McDaniel said.
"We had firefighters going building to building in Biltmore Village to make sure that buildings were clear, police officers making contact with the homeless population to make sure they were aware," she said.
The city measured 1.71 inches of rain at the reservoir Saturday through Monday. Another 2.43 inches fell through 4:15 p.m. Tuesday.
That's in addition to abnormally large amounts of rain Western North Carolina received earlier in the month.
In a period that stretched from May 13-19, Asheville Regional Airport, one of the National Weather Service's monitoring stations, recorded more than 9 inches of rain.
That's nearly three times the typical amount of rain the area receives during the entire month of May.
An earlier version of this story gave an incorrect figure for the size of North Fork Reservoir.

CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE: Short stature is defined as a height of more than two standard deviations below the average for a given age and sex in a reference population. The objective was to describe follow-up conducted among short-stature children and adolescents. DESIGN AND SETTING: Descriptive study, at the Growth outpatient clinic, Department of Pediatrics, Universidade Federal de São Paulo. METHODS: The study included 152 patients aged 2 to 15 years who had height for age of less than P5, on the National Center for Health Statistics curve. The children underwent nutritional evaluation, and several variables relating to height and growth rate were calculated to establish etiological diagnosis. Bone age was evaluated by X-ray. RESULTS: The majority (63.2%) were male. In 77.8%, the stature observed was within the family pattern. Among the 99 patients followed up for more than 6 months, 17.2% presented inadequate growth rates. The preponderant etiological diagnosis for short stature was familial/constitutional in 58.6% of the cases; 27 patients (34.2%) with adequate growth rate presented bone age alterations. Even with inadequate growth rates, 75% of such patients had a normal result from growth hormone stimulation testing. Close to 90% of patients with a diagnosis of short stature of familial/constitutional origin and intrauterine growth retardation presented adequate growth rate. The genetic etiology was significantly characteristic of patients with inadequate growth rate. CONCLUSION: Growth rate assessment must form part of the investigation and follow-up of short-stature cases. However, its utilization and validity should form part of an overall view of each patient.

If you have trouble getting a good night’s sleep and don’t want to turn to a prescription medication or an over-the-counter sleep aid, nature’s medicine cabinet contains effective herbal sleep remedies
If you have trouble getting a good night’s sleep and don’t want to turn to a prescription medication or an over-the-counter sleep aid, nature’s medicine cabinet contains effective herbal sleep remedies. Herbs such as catnip, passionflower, and camomile can help you relax and get a good night’s sleep.
A member of the mint family, catnip was first noted in 1735 in the General Irish Herbal for the use of its leaves and flowers to make herbal teas. Today we usually think of catnip as a euphoria-inducing treat for cats, but it has also been used by humans to treat indigestion, stomach problems, the common cold, and as a sedative.
Anecdotal evidence has accumulated over many years verifying catnip’s sedating effect. Catnip oil’s structure is chemically similar to valerian root, both of which contain nepetalactone, a proven sedative, making both herbs effective in treating insomnia.
Used for thousands of years, camomile is another herb that offers relief from a variety of symptoms, including stomach upsets, anxiety, and sleep problems. The flowering tops of camomile are used to make supplements, extracts, and teas.
In a recent study on the use of camomile to treat insomnia, researchers found that it was moderately more effective than placebo in increasing total sleep time. It also helped to reduce the number of night time awakenings and moderately improved daytime functioning.
Another traditional sleep aid, passionflower was discovered by Spanish explorers in Peru in 1569. It got its name from their belief that its flowers represented the passion of Christ. Passionflower has been used to treat gastrointestinal upsets, anxiety, and insomnia.
Research on passionflower’s effectiveness at fighting insomnia have mostly focused on animals. However, in a recent study on the effectiveness of passionflower tea to treat insomnia in humans, participants gave it a significantly better rating than placebo for improving sleep quality.
Hops may be famous for their use as a bittering agent in beer making, but they have also long been used traditionally to treat insomnia, often in combination with other herbs that promote relaxation.
Although their exact mechanism of action is still being studied, it is believed that hops function similarly to melatonin, a hormone that helps to regulate the body’s circadian rhythm. Some data suggest that hops stimulate melatonin receptors.


Are you wondering how many Americans smoke weed?
The cannabis market is huge and as more states legalize medicinal and recreational cannabis, it’s only getting bigger. In this article, you’ll find out just how many Americans use cannabis, how many people smoke weed in the world, and how many Americans choose to smoke weed versus consume cannabis using another method.
According to the 2022 World Drug Report released by the United Nations (U.N.) Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) 209 million people worldwide ages 15 - 64 use cannabis.
When looking at the percent of the population ages 15 - 64 that has smoked weed at least once in the last year, the country with the most weed smokers is Chile.
The countries that smoke the most weed around the world based on the country's population of people ages 15 - 64 are as follows:
As cannabis legalization continues globally, the legal cannabis market is growing at a rate of 25.5% annually and is expected to be valued at $102.2 billion by 2025.
It's no secret that cannabis is becoming increasingly popular in the United States. What may come as a surprise, however, is just how many Americans smoke weed.
At the time of writing this article, medical cannabis is legal in 37 states and Washington, D.C. and recreational cannabis is legal in 18 states as well as Washington, D.C.
According to a Gallup Poll, 12% of American adults say they smoke weed. Based on the 2020 U.S. Census of 258.3 million adults in the United States, this equates to approximately 30 million American weed smokers.
So, if you're wondering "how many Americans smoke weed," the answer is that it's tens of millions of people and the number is growing every year.
According to a report by MJBiz the sales of cannabis in the United States in 2022 will reach $33 Billion with:
According to the National Center for Drug Abuse Statistics, there are currently 55 million Americans who have consumed cannabis (using any consumption method) within the last year and 78 million who have consumed cannabis at some point in their lifetime.
The Americans consuming cannabis are not the “stoner” often depicted in pop culture. A Harris Survey of 2,000 cannabis-consuming Americans found that 91% of cannabis consumers over the age of 21 consumed cannabis for health and wellness reasons. The largest growing population of cannabis consumers are actually individuals that are health conscious and want alternatives to traditional pharmaceuticals.
The Harris Survey found that:
As the legal cannabis market grows and education becomes more accessible people are learning about the various ways cannabis can be consumed and its benefits resulting in more Americans trying cannabis for themselves.

|Election||Premier at election||Premier's party||Premier after election||Premier's party|
|NT 25 August 2012||Paul Raymond Henderson||Australian Labor Party||Terrance Kennedy (Terry) Mills||Country Liberal Party|
Loss of election (Henderson): Beginning of Mills' period in office: At the Legislative Assembly election held on 25 August 2012, the Henderson Australian Labor Party government was defeated, and the Country Liberal Party won a majority of seats. On 29 August, Mills was commissioned as Chief Minister of a Country Liberal Party majority government together with Robyn Lambley, as deputy chief minister; these two ministers shared all existing portfolios between them. The full ministry of nine members was commission on 4 September 2012.
Change of party leader (Mills): While Premier Mills was on an overseas business trip for the Northern Territory, the Country Liberal Party parliamentary party removed him as leader of the party, and elected Giles in his place. Mills had 'lost the support of four Aboriginal Territory MPs, including factional powerbroker and Indigenous Advancement Minister Alison Anderson' (Aikman and Wallace, see 'Sources', below).

Hulk Hogan has endured 28 surgeries over the last decade after years of wrestling injuries ravaged his body … but the WWE Hall of Famer tells us thanks to his THC and CBD use, he feels better than he has in 45 years!
“I always joke about I didn’t get the memo that this stuff was ‘fake’ and after the 10 back surgery and two knees and two hips, it’s just a situation of you do get hurt out there all the time,” Hogan told Babcock on the TMZ Sports TV show (airs weekdays on FS1).
Hogan continued, flat out saying … “I feel better than I’ve ever felt at 69 years old, I feel like I’m 25 again.”
If you know anything about Hulk’s physical ailments (Hogan’s publicly talked about enduring horrific pain on a daily basis), it’s truly an incredible comeback.
“It definitely helped me because as I said the slow walk back from the prescription drugs ended with me downing the Tylenol and the Advil and Aleve’s and finally even that wasn’t working for me,” Hogan said.
“As I moved away from that and got into the CBD world, it really changed the game from my sleep to the inflammation, the way my wrists and my joints hurt, across the board, it helped me with my health.”
In fact, Hulk is such a proponent of THC and CBD, he’s actually launching his own brand with the company behind Mike Tyson’s “Tyson Ranch 2.0” and Ric Flair’s “Ric Flair Drip,” Carma HoldCo.
“When I saw what Ric and Mike were doing, I instantly wanted to get on the team because you use CBD for energy, for sleep, for fitness — it just made sense. It’s a logical extension of where I already was but this is the safe way to approach things instead of that wild card way of doctor’s prescription stuff. It just didn’t make sense anymore.”
Hulk’s new partner, Chad Bronstein, Carma’s President, also joined us to preview the new health and wellness brand … which he says will feature not just CBD and THC products but also “functional mushrooms.”
The release date of Hulk’s new company is not yet known … but suddenly, Aaron Rodgers is very interested! 😅


In the debate over what makes an artist or group a classic, the issue can be turned into something measurable, such as album or ticket sales, and there are those who attribute it to the artistic proposal and what it generated on the scene.
Miranda! fulfills both of those requirements. For the Argentine electropop band, being a classic or becoming a classic is more related to persistence and endurance.
While they turn 19 as a group, and with a pile of hits on their backs, Ale Sergi and Juliana Gattas wrote a chapter of their own in the history of Argentine popular music. The number of pages they’ll write is up to them, but their name has already been immortalized in the national songbook.
Recently, the duo released “Me Gustas Tanto,” which ends the week at No. 76 on the Billboard Argentina Hot 100. Here, Sergi and Gattas talk to Billboard Argentina:
What were you conquering 19 years ago, and what are you conquering now?
Ale Sergi: 19 years ago, we were starting and conquering our anxiety. Miranda! is a momentum group, so there wasn’t much organization at the beginning. And now, I don’t know if “conquer” is the word but somehow, we are reaffirming ourselves. I am pleasantly surprised that there are people who follow and want to listen to our music that came out so long ago.
We feel that we have passed to the category of a classic group. People at the beginning did not understand where we came from, and now they do. Deep down, we were always as clear as we could be. Over time, people understood what the group was going to do. Although we didn’t invent anything new, when we started, there was nothing like us on the scene.
Why do they perceive it as “classic”?
Juliana Gattas: I understand that it is perceived as a classic today, but it has to do with an insistence of style, rather than doing the same. We felt that we were advancing, evolving, and we moved a lot with the influences that appeared. We listen all the time, especially to Alejandro, and to new music that excites and entertains us.
Sergi: When I say “classic,” I mean that the group leaves no doubt as to its trajectory. Then when they look at you, they may like it more or less, but people recognize that we have been generating interest for a long time. I am excited to think that in the history of Argentine music that we like, we have our own little place.
In that sense, how did you keep the Miranda! DNA in the music without repeating the formula?
Gattas: DNA has to do with never considering changing. For some reason, we are still passionate about the genetic idea of ??the group, which was to make a dance, disco, colorful, fun and entertaining band in every way. You don’t know how eager I am to go out to sing, I’m dying. And the public is waiting for something more than songs, one after the other. We seek to provide that, an experience.
We never get tired of us. Maybe in “Es Imposible” we sounded rockier, but the disco, the dance, and the visual elements are always present, and it is our idiosyncrasy.
You toured Latin America recently, and we are in a great time for Latin music. Is there a regional plan for the group?
Sergi: We never plan. We go on a song by song, record by record basis. We were already doing things outside, somehow. But now, having released “Fuerte,” the first one with Sony, we’ve had great support and visited almost all of Latin America. But we do not have a conquest plan.

Shelby County may hike air pollution emission and permit fees
The Shelby County Commission may increase fees for air pollution emissions and permits as a shrinking number of local companies continue reining in emissions.
A committee voted 4-0, with four abstentions, to recommend approval of an ordinance to raise fees per ton of emissions from $48 to $53, increase the major source permit fee from $2,000 to $5,000, and increase the minimum emissions fee from $1,000 to $1,500.
The current emission and permit fees are "insufficient to fund the direct and indirect costs" of the county's air pollution control program, according to the ordinance.
While the cost of the air pollution program has remained static, revenue from emissions has dropped as companies like Cargill have departed and other companies have decreased their emissions, committee chairman Reginal Milton said.
The emissions fee was last raised from $43 to $48 in 2014.
The committee vote fell along party lines with Democratic Commissioners Milton, Eddie Jones, Melvin Burgess and Willie Brooks supporting the increases, which were endorsed by Republican Mayor Mark Luttrell's administration. Republicans Mark Billingsley, David Reaves, Terry Roland and Heidi Shafer abstained.
The ordinance could receive a final vote in November.

U.S. SHRUGS OFF E.U. QUESTIONNAIRE
A questionnaire sent by the European Union to various American parties concerning the US discriminatory policy on Internet gambling has been shrugged off by the United States Trade Representative to the World Trade Organisation, the Financial Times reports.
The negative response is hardly likely to improve the atmosphere when European Commissioner Peter Mandelson and his team meet the Americans next month to further discuss the issue following complaints referred by the Remote Gaming Association .
Depending on the conclusions reached as a result of the questionnaire and the meetings, the EU could launch further action in pursuit of the claims.
The RGA urged the European Commission to investigate complaints from European online gambling operators that European companies are being targeted by US gambling laws to protect certain US operators, such as the websites run by the American horse-betting industry.
The FT reports that Susan Schwab, the US Trade Representative, responded to the European Commission's questionnaire saying there was "no basis for any allegation of ‘discriminatory enforcement’ of US gambling laws”.
Schwab told the Commission its queries were based on 'mistaken assumptions', saying the 2006 legislation did not alter which gambling activities were lawful or unlawful. Enforcing US law and bringing charges was based on a number of factors, but nationality was not one of them, the USTR added.
The response suggests a lack of concern on the part of US officialdom, and seems to ignore the blatantly discriminatory "carve-outs" or exemptions in US gambling laws like the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act that enable online betting through US horse racing and lottery websites whilst barring transactions with European companies and prosecuting visiting European gambling executives.
The advent of the UIGEA in late 2006 caused several major European companies to hurriedly exit the US gambling market at a cost of billions of dollars in lost revenues and declining share prices.
Exacerbating the issue is the fear among several large European companies that they may be pursued by the US Department of Justice for activities in the United States prior to the passage of the UIGEA, leading to currently ongoing negotiations with the Americans and the possibility of punitive "settlement" agreements.
The RGA's chief executive, Clive Hawkswood claims the US is guilty of “unfair and discriminatory treatment of the EU gambling industry and the continuing threat of prosecutions cannot be allowed to go unchecked”.
The focus will be on the UIGEA next week, too as Congressman Barney Frank's HR5767 bill prohibiting further implementation of the supporting regulations for the UIGEA goes before the House Financial Services Committee for discussion and markup on June 24. Two more Congressman joined those co-sponsoring HR5767 this week, bringing total political sponsorship for the measure to 20 Representatives.

IT Disaster Recovery. Disaster Recovery refers to incidents that significantly impact or make unavailable critical infrastructure. The most common examples are natural disasters and other "acts of God." Planning for data protection and recovery are fundamental to disaster recovery principles. So the idea of BCDR really is to ensure that your company or organization continues to function at or near normal capacity levels under even the most challenging conditions. Sounds pretty straightforward, right? Well, wrapped up in that deceptively simple concept are dozens, hundreds, perhaps even thousands of business processes, most, if not all of which are dependent upon your IT infrastructure for successful execution.
The Plan. The first step to building an action plan template is to outline the final goal. Write down you final objective including the time to completion and cost of the project. Next break down the path to that goal in several consecutive steps. Assign a cost and time to each of these steps. Take not if multiple steps can be completed at the same time of one step must preclude another.

The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Endocrinologic and Metabolic Drugs Advisory Committee voted 18 to 4, with one abstention, that the available data demonstrate that the potential benefits of investigational weight management drug, lorcaserin, outweigh the potential risks when used long-term in a population of overweight and obese individuals.
Lorcaserin is an investigational drug candidate intended for weight management, including weight loss and maintenance of weight loss, in patients who are obese (BMI greater than or equal to 30) or patients who are overweight (BMI greater than or equal to 27) and have at least one weight-related comorbid condition.
“The advisory committee’s positive vote supports our belief in lorcaserin as a potential new treatment option for the medical management of overweight and obesity,” said Jack Lief, president and CEO of the manufacturer, Arena. “We will continue to work with the FDA as the agency completes its review of the lorcaserin new drug application.”
Although advisory committees provide recommendations to the FDA, the agency makes the final decisions. The Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) date for the lorcaserin New Drug Application (NDA) resubmission is June 27, 2012, which is the target date for the agency to complete its review.
“Eisai’s commitment to advancing innovative therapies in areas of medical need continues to be a cornerstone of our corporate mission,” stated Lonnel Coats, president and CEO of marketing partner Eisai Inc. “We look forward to the outcome of the lorcaserin new drug application discussions with the FDA.”

State of Wonder is the story of a doctor, Marina, whose co-worker, Anders, dies in the Amazon while trying to get more information about Dr. Swenson. Dr. Swenson, Marina, and Anders all work for the same company, Vogel, which is funding Dr. Swenson's research. Dr. Swenson has found a tribe in the Amazon where the women are able to continue to have children into their 70s, and she is studying their diets and environments in the hope of developing a fertility drug. However, she is so secretive about her research that no one at Vogel knows how to reach her. Anders, an avid bird watcher, volunteers to go down and find the reclusive researcher. A couple of months later, a letter from Dr. Swenson informs Vogel that Anders has died. Anders' wife and Vogel both want more information, for very different reasons, and as a result, Marina is sent to find out what happened, and how the research is progressing.
The other books that I have read by Patchett, Run and Bel Canto, have both centered on the relationships created by people who are brought together by an unexpected act of violence. Those characters, who have every reason not to like each other, learn to trust and love. State of Wonder starts on the opposite end of the relationship spectrum, with characters who think that they know each other, and believe that they are working toward a common goal, only to realize that they have all been manipulated by a psychopath.
State of Wonder is Patchett's best book so far. I read it for The Friends Book Group, and there will be a lot to talk about. Most obviously, the question of whether women who are over a certain age should have children is a topic that any group of women could debate, and Patchett supplies ammunition on both sides of the argument. The characters are well developed, and Patchett's description of the means by which the members of the tribe are able to maintain their fertility is so clear that it almost seems possible. The lines of medical ethics are blurred until there are none.
One book down for the Support your Library Challenge. 23 more to go.
Next up: This Beautiful Life by Helen Schulman. This is my pick for The Typical Book Group, and I can't wait to read it.

Written for the Ongar News
While High Streets across the country are struggling to recover from the double whammy of the coronavirus pandemic and the disappearance of many well-known chains – Debenhams, Dorothy Perkins, Laura Ashley, Edinburgh Woollen Mill – it is heartening to see Ongar High Street looking perkier than it has for some time.
I have just returned from a full day in Ongar visiting just a fraction of the businesses, church and voluntary groups, councillors and farmers living and working in the town. Having walked from the Epping Ongar Railway at the top of the High Street, all the way down to the Two Brewers at the bottom, it’s clear many people have spent lockdown planning their businesses, and the town centre is buzzing with new ventures, from the children’s clothing shop, to hairdressers to new cafes.
My visits included meetings with representatives from Ongar Town Council, the Ongar Town Forum, the Ongar Neighbourhood Plan Community Group, Moreton, Bobbingworth and the Lavers Parish Council, the Joseph King Trust, Ongar Young Farmers, the Ongar United Reform Church and Essex County Cllr Jaymey McIvor.
The over-riding message I received from all these groups is that Ongar has a wonderful community of leaders and volunteers, who work unstintingly to support everyone in the town, from the youngest children to the oldest and most frail residents. There is an enthusiasm to see the town’s rich history fully recognised, with more for those visiting via the Epping Ongar Railway to do when they are looking for refreshments and shopping experiences on the High Street between train journeys.
And, as I suspected, the idea of the villages north of Ongar moving into the Saffron Walden constituency and my constituency losing ‘Ongar’ from its name is not something the local folk support. If you want to have your say, the link to the Boundary Commission consultation can be found here:
My thanks to all who took the time to speak to me and I will be back to Ongar for another full day of visits – in addition to my usual ad hoc visits – as soon as possible.

Regardless though, hundreds of delegates from across the country already made their way to Kampala to attend the meeting.
According to inside sources, delegates started to arrive on Sunday evening despite Police and the High Court condemning the meeting.
“For tomorrow‘s delegates conference, we are ready to crash those planning to disorganize it. This is not the playground for anybody who is looking for trouble,” Birigwa warned on Monday.
High Court Judge Esta Nambayo said the conference should be stayed until a legal challenge against it taking place is heard and resolved.
Stopping the conference came after a heated court session where two rival lawyers looked to represent the party on the matter.
Kampala Lord Mayor Erias Lukwago and Moses Tugume presented themselves as counsel for the party. However, Julius Galisonga contested this claim saying he was the instructed lawyer.
By Monday evening, about 800 delegates had arrived at different locations in Kampala. From here, they were accredited before going to Busaabala, the said venue for the FDC Delegates Conference.
In other news, however, Wasswa Bigirwa is said to have picked nomination forms for his re-election bid. Augustine Ojabile revealed how Bigirwa is one of those who picked nomination forms for the National Chairperson position.
He claims Bigirwa sent a message via social media to show his interest. In an interview with the press, however, Bigirwa denies ever picking any nomination forms or sending a representative to do so.

This greenhouse for organic citrus has an integrated monitoring system that remotely controls the photovoltaic plant and the microclimate parameters needed for the crop's development. Thanks to this, the investment, which is intended to make use of the structure's roof, has turned out to be very profitable and environmentally friendly.
The project, developed by Soltec's R&D&I department, needed to make organic farming compatible with photovoltaic solar energy production. A multi-tunnel structure was designed for the ventilation and climate control systems, and a truss-type structure was adapted to integrate Trina Solar's TSM-PC05 multicrystalline photovoltaic modules. Thanks to its sturdy construction and the 134 Danfoss TLX+ 15 kW solar inverters, additional structures did not need to be built. These modules protect agricultural production from irradiation, heavy rains, fluctuations in soil humidity, insects, fungi and low temperatures due to wind chill. I
n addition, they produce 3,126,528 kWh of electricity annually. Compared to electricity from coal or natural gas, the solar project eliminates 3,126,528 (coal) and 1,250,611 (natural gas) kg of CO2 each year, an amount equivalent to 2,379 cars or more than 26 million kilometres travelled.


There’s a truckload of new releases from the Belgian dance scene, so why not bring you up to speed in one big post?
Let’s kick things off with AnnaGrace, formerly known as the lady who sang the likes of “Will I?” into the UK top 10 with Ian Van Dahl. Since 2008 Annemie Coenen has reinvented herself as AnnaGrace. She’s had her fair share of club hits, but her main achievement under this new moniker remains “Let The Feelings Go“, which brought her into the Flemish top 5 for the very first time. Now the dance diva is back to kickstart her new album campaign with “Ready To Fall In Love“. The track doesn’t stray too far from the familiar AnnaGrace sound, but why should it? Annemie’s vocals over those Peter Luts produced beats is exactly what we wanted and it doesn’t disappoint.
Another legend that has been around since the very start is Jessy. She’s been celebrating her legacy in Belgian dance with a best of release, “The Ultimate Jessy: Best Of 1995 – 2012“. Lead by the Kaliq Scott & DJ Rebel featuring “Angel“, this compilation collects the best tracks from Jessy’s time with The Mackenzie, her solo hits and four brand new tracks. As an extra treat for her fans, she’s now given “Innocence“, the biggest The Mackenzie ft. Jessy hit, a 2012 reswizzle. Jessy is joined on “Innocence ’12“ by Abie Flinstone, Belgium’s upcoming answer to Nicki Minaj. The brand new production comes courtesy of Milk Inc.’s Regi Penxten.
And that’s not all Regi‘s been up to. He’s also teamed up with Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike. You may remember them from remixes for the likes of Katerine Avgoustakis or “The Way We See The World“, the mindblowing theme song to dance festival Tomorrowland. Their collaboration has resulted in “Momentum“, an instrumental track that has shot straight into the Flemish top 10 in its first week on the charts.
More male music is brought to us by Danzel who is featured on DJ Rebel‘s new offering. Who’d have thought that almost 10 years after not making it out of the final 50 in Idool 2003 Johan Waem aka Danzel would still be releasing music? His Black & White Brothers cover “Pump It Up” even made it to number 11 in the UK singles chart! The DJ Rebel produced “You Make Me Happy” mashes the feel of “I Gotta Feeling” with Guetta synths while at the same time sounding like vintage Sash!
Silvy De Bie has been a busy lady as well. She’s reportedly filming for her own reality show and has two new singles coming up. The first is a collaboration with David Latour. This Belgian DJ scored himself a dance hit in 2011 with “Venus vs. Mars” and recently remixed girl group About E’s second single. His collaboration with Silvy, under her solo stage name Sil, is called “Without You“ and despite being released on iTunes last month, only a teaser seems to be online for listening so far.
Finally, Silvy’s also been busy recording a new album with Sylver, the band that shot her to international fame with “Turn The Tide“. It’ll be the group’s first new studio album in three years, not counting their 2011 Best Of “Decade“. Last year we were treated to “Stop Feeling Sorry“, a first taste of what’s to come, and now there’s the brand new “City Of Angels“ to whet our appetites even more!
“Ready To Fall In Love” by AnnaGrace is available on iTunes and Spotify.
“The Ultimate Jessy: Best Of 1995 – 2012” by Jessy is available on iTunes and Spotify.
“Innocence ’12” by Jessy ft. Abie Flinstone is available on iTunes.
“Momentum” by Dimitri Vegas, Like Mike & Regi is available on iTunes.
“You Make Me Happy” by DJ Rebel ft. Danzel is available on iTunes.

From the moment we are born, we suffer from attachment. We are born into hunger and a yearning for a comforting touch. As infants, we cry when we feel discomfort, helpless and hoping someone will come to our rescue. As toddlers, we wail or have tantrums when things aren’t going our way, or we’re just too tired and overwhelmed to process what’s happening around us.
This basic instinct to claw toward our comfort zone informs our adult experiences as well. We feel anger, resentment, fear and grief when we experience loss, disappointment, or deprivation of the things we desire or feel we need.
When we are suffering, it seems counterintuitive to sit still and sink more deeply into those uncomfortable feelings, yet therein we find the crucible that contains the fire to transform our angst into acceptance and ultimate joy.
In recent years, we in modern society have experienced deprivation unlike any we had known before, and at a time when many of us had become used to everything we needed being on tap. We live in a world of instant gratification. Food can be prepared with the push of a button, entertainment and connection with others sit in the palm of our hands, and, until recently, travel and the acquirement of goods operated with relative ease and speed.
Isolation, health mandates, disruption of the supply chain, and unprecedented issues with travel are just some of the ways that ongoing, persistent pressure is being applied to our normal coping mechanisms. We adapt or we react, depending on our personalities and belief systems. Evidence of this intense pressure is evident in extreme behaviour resulting from the expectation that we take relatively simple actions to socially distance and wear masks for the protection of the vulnerable in our society. Frustration has translated into fist fights with store owners, and skirmishes on public transit. Humans are at a tipping point just as much as our environment is. Will we find our way through our destructive thought patterns to a place of peace, or will we succumb to our most basic instincts to rail against discomfort?
What if we turn toward our troubling emotions? What if we sit into the fire of our powerful, overwhelming feelings and use them as fuel for our awakening, trusting that this is all part of the grander scheme of things? A worldwide evolutionary process accelerating the development of humankind’s higher consciousness?
When we think of raising our awareness, it’s easy to envision some retreat in a forest or by the ocean, where we quietly and peacefully attain Nirvana. I don’t think that’s really how it works – not for those of us who have spent most of our lives seeking creature comforts. I suspect we need a daunting situation from which we cannot escape, in order to bring our recalcitrant spirits into tow.
Tibetan Buddhists often travel many miles, prostrating themselves as part of their spiritual practice. They undergo a great deal of hardship and deprivation in order to find peace within themselves. This is a normal and accepted aspect of their society. In my travels to Tibet, I witnessed incredible warmth, kindness, and a peaceful joy emanating from the Tibetans I met, despite their being under Chinese control since the 1950s, having suffered greatly under their regime. Their property has been stolen, monasteries looted and desecrated, and horrible atrocities imposed on the monks, nuns, and laypeople. Yet, they continue to turn inward for their sense of peace, which is not destroyed by circumstance.
Our modern world isn’t set up for spiritual enlightenment, and most of us wouldn’t seek it out through such challenging practices as prostration or sitting in a cave in the Himalayas for years. So, it seems that the opportunity for awakening is being visited upon us through different circumstances, which require that we develop our patience, fortitude, and compassion. What stands in the way are our selfishness, indolence, and sense of entitlement.
I invite you to learn to sit in the fire of your most challenging emotions with curiosity and dedication. Allow your emotions to rise up and mix within you. Do not suppress them, but do not project them either. Sit with the powerful mix of overwhelming feelings, and observe them. How do they feel in your body? Where are the feelings located as physical sensations? As you sit and observe them, how do they change?
For a shift to occur, you may need to sit with your feelings for days. Whenever you can find time to sit still and contemplate, do so. Eventually, you will learn to go about your daily business and contemplate your emotions simultaneously. The key is to create space between that which irritates or overwhelms you – and your desire to react to it. In that space, awakening can arise. It does so through acceptance of your circumstances as necessary to your development and not as an affront to the way you would choose to live otherwise.
I believe that humankind is on the precipice of a great awakening, which has already begun. We are being guided inward through isolation, and through deprivation of comforts. We are being given an opportunity by a benevolent universe to accept the changes occurring in the world as a natural part of our spiritual path, to look inward when we are overwhelmed, to sit in the crucible and let the fire of our emotions meld and change us. If we accept our circumstances as entirely for our benefit, we may emerge with a greater understanding and appreciation of the life we have been given.

Two close family members served with the British military in World War II. A brother, Malcolm John, volunteered in 1939 and was wounded in service in North Africa, and at Monte Casino in Italy. A cousin, Alain John, died at the age of 18 from wounds suffered when the bomber he was navigating crashed after returning from a raid on Germany.
Robert John was the author, with Sami Hadawi, of an important scholarly work, The Palestine Diary: British, American and United Nations Intervention, 1914-1948. This detailed two-volume work, first published in 1970, includes a laudatory foreword by the eminent British historian Arnold Toynbee.
For many years Robert John lived in New York City, just off Park Avenue in Manhattan. He served as foreign affairs advisor to the Council on American Affairs in Washington from 1976 to 1986. He contributed to a range of serious periodicals, including Chronicles and The Journal of Historical Review.
His book, Behind the Balfour Declaration: The Hidden Origin of Today's Mideast Crisis, was published in 1988 by the Institute for Historical Review. It was based on a paper he presented at the Fifth IHR Conference in 1983.
Robert John died on June 4, 2007, age 86. He is remembered as an accomplished scholar with an abiding concern for justice and humanity, and as a principled fighter for historical truth.

Bhubaneswar, Aug 13:
In spite of substantial improvement in the flood situation, there is no end to the misery of 1,30,913 people of 139 villages in five districts of Odisha, who are still marooned.
Briefing the media today, deputy relief commissioner Pravat Ranjan Mohapatra said of the 139 marooned villages, 115 are in Puri district.
He also informed that Baleswar district is under the grip of a second round of flood qith floodwater of Subarnarekha marooning over 20 villages of Baliapal block, 30 villages of Bhogarai block and 15 villages of Jaleswar block.
He said flood had recurred in the district due to the release of floodwater of Subarnarekha from the Galudih dam in Jharkhand and difficulty in the release of floodwater in the sea due to high tide.
To a question on post-flood measures taken by the state government in other areas where the situation has substantially improved, Mohapatra said disinfection of tube wells in these areas was being taken up on a war footing while medical teams had been pressed into service to provide first-aid to the ailing people.
Meanwhile, with the inflow of less water in the Mahanadi, the Hirakud dam authorities have closed another four gates of the reservoir.
At 6 PM today, the water level in the reservoir was 618.43 feet. While the inflow of water into the reservoir was 2,07,259 lakh cusecs per second, 2,40, 631 lakh cusecs of water per second was being released through 14 gates.

ELEKTRA ASSASSIN PREM HC DM VAR ED 85 (OUT OF PRINT) SEALED
She's an intriguing young woman who has played equally intriguing roles throughout her life: gymnast, martial artist, ninja, assassin. But this enigmatic woman who was trained in the deadly arts of ninjitsu and is now renowned as the world's deadliest assassin... is dead. Or is she? An unconscious woman washes ashore off the coast of a small Central American country. Two policemen are strangled. A diplomat is assassinated. A S.H.I.E.L.D agent is brutally dismembered. Unrelated events? Hardly. Elektra has returned. Whether she's been miraculously resurrected or this is an untold tale from Elektra's past is left for the reader to decide. But on thing remains certain, Elektra is back, and she's back with a vengeance. From the combined talents of two of comic's greatest innovators - Frank Miller and Bill Sienkiewicz - comes this psychological excursion through the mind, body and soul of the world's more dangerous woman. A woman named Elektra.

I'll get right to it: I like food. I like to think about it, talk about it, play with it, eat it, and share it. Sometimes I also like to write about it, which is where this post comes in. When you miss meal hours in campus dining services, when your co-op cancels dinner, or when you need to treat yourself, sometimes you need to head out. And in this college town, we've got a smorgasboard of good eats for cheap.
A few notes before we tuck in:
I began writing this post with the lofty recollection of the pervasive $5 lunch menu dancing in my memory. When I was a student here, several restaurants in town had extensive $5 lunch menus, and that really encouraged me to dine out at least once a week. Many of these meals would also give me a snack for later in the day - let's be real, late night - so I planned my dining out accordingly.
In the past few months, I've noticed a slight uptick in the cost of food items on menus in town, and while there are still many delectable options under $5, I upped the price cap of this post to reflect the small change. To be eligible for inclusion in this post, anything listed on a menu as 6.00 or less was fair game. I won't be listing ALL the sub-six dollar eats in town, but I will cover as many as I can endorse myself (or with input from others).
When it comes to tax: when dining in, there's a sales tax charged but when ordering takeout, there's no sales tax. I also didn't reference tipping, which, as a former food service worker I highly encourage doing (at least until we banish terrible pay practices in the food industry, but we're not exactly there yet and this isn't exactly the topic of this post - so, in short, please tip your food service providers).
In comparison to most major cities, Oberlin's restaurants are, on the whole, extremely affordable. Considering the localness of both the food provided and the money recirculating here in town, I think it's a great thing to dine here in town and consider it to be a part of a fuller Oberlin experience.
I've broken down the following plates by category, but don't feel limited by my classifications. (I'm a savory breakfast person and an omelet for dinner person and a cookies at all hours person... as I said, I'm just a food person.)
Here in Oberlin, we take our breakfast/lunch/brunch very seriously. This category includes straight-up brunch options, and menus that serve breakfast and lunch items throughout the day.
Black River Cafe's under $6 options include:
- eggs, homefries, and toast ($4.75 - though if you substitute a bagel for the toast, it's only a dollar more - this recommendation from one of our student designers, Sarah)
- a two egg omelet with cheese and one filling ($6)
- a single (plate-sized! traditional, cornmeal, or vegan) pancake ($3.75 - though you can add blueberries, apples, bananas, or chocolate chips for fifty cents each)
- yogurt and granola parfait ($5.50)
- crepes ($4.50 or $5.50 depending on the fillings)
- house salad ($5.75)
- soup of the day ($2.75 for a cup, $4 for a bowl)
- roasted red pepper sandwich ($5.75 - comes with a side of soup, salad, homefries, or fries)
- You can also put together a breakfast of your choice from the a la carte menu, where items range from a dollar to $3.75.
The webteam celebrates National Pancake Day at Black River.
Main Street Diner opens early and serves diner fare until 3pm. Your affordable under $6 options include:
- buttermilk, buckwheat, or gluten free pancakes ($4.09 for a short stack of the first two, $4.19 for the gluten free 'cakes)
- cinnamon swirl pancake ($3.75)
- French toast (short stack is $4.30, full stack is $6)
- egg plates (with toast, home fries, and meat, varying in price from $3.20 to $5.20 depending on the combination)
- biscuits and gravy ($2.45 for a small, $4.59 for a large)
- oatmeal or grits ($2.79 for a cup, $4.25 for a bowl)
- soup or chili of the day ($2.75 to $3.85 depending on the size)
- a grilled cheese sandwich ($4.99, though you can add bacon or tomato and keep it under six dollars)
Treehuggers Cafe is open lunchtime and afternoon, and their breakfast-y items are egg-cellent. For under $6, you can get:
- breakfast sandwiches of the egg, sausage (or veggie sausage), and veggie variety
- breakfast bowls - either quinoa and sweet potato ($5) or granola ($5)
- the fresh fruit and goat cheese crepe ($6) or basic crepe with lavender sugar and honey ($5)
The Feve serves an ever-changing brunch menu every Saturday and Sunday. Under $6 grub includes:
- a single fancy pancake (sweet or savory, flavors change weekly, $4.45 - add an egg to the savory cakes for an additional dollar)
- classic cakes (two pancakes, $5)
- a bowl of the soup of the day ($5)
- the basic breakfast of eggs, brunch potatoes, salad, and bread ($6)
- yogurt and granola ($6)
- steel cut oatmeal and fruit (cup $2.75, bowl $5)
A sweet cake: nutella raspberry pancakes.
Look at all the brunching! My savory cake in the foreground is the apricot bacon brie pancake. You can also spot the basic breakfast to the left of my plate as well.
The new restaurant Strange Bird has Sunday brunch only, which includes:
- steamed pork buns ($6)
- chilaquiles ($6)
- a classic breakfast of eggs, bacon/sausage, breakfast potatoes, and toast ($5)
My recommendations: The Feve's savory fancy cakes are, no joke, a reason to wake up on a Saturday or Sunday morning (my favorite is the asparagus and gruyere with a fried egg, and I usually mix a touch of hot sauce in with maple syrup as a topping). At Black River, If I'm feeling sandwich-y I like getting an English muffin, a fried egg, and bacon from the a la carte menu to make a breakfast sandwich, which adds up to $5, and upgrading to a croissant brings it to an even $6.
When I mentioned this blog post during one of our blogger workshops, I got two ringing endorsements for the cinnamon swirl pancake at Main Street Diner, which is apparently HUGE and feeds you forever.
I'm focusing solely on items and prices that are only on lunch menus in town for this section. Many of the options listed here are also available at dinner/late night, but depending on the spot, prices might be slightly higher.
Tooo Chinoise has a few lunch choices under $6:
- chicken fried rice ($5.50)
- curry, szechwan, sweet and sour, almond, and broccoli chicken ($5.99)
- veggie pad thai, lo mein, or fried rice ($5.50)
- green beans or broccoli ($5.99)
- veggie stir fry ($5.99)
Mandarin's lunch menu is almost entirely under $6, including:
- fried rice ($5.95)
- chow mein, lo mein, and mei fun ($5.75)
- mongolian beef, beef with broccoli, and pepper steak ($5.95)
- cashew, sesame, honey garlic, or curry chicken ($5.95)
- ma po, kung pao, sesame, or honey tofu ($5.95)
- egg rolls and spring rolls (less than $2), dumplings ($5.50), and soup ($2.25 to $5.95, depending on size and style)
Lorenzo's has a lunch deal for pizza by the slice for a cool three bucks.
Lupita's serves the Speedy Gonzalez for $5.99: a beef taco and the house enchilada with a side of rice or beans. I can verify that it's super fast!
While on campus, the Rathskeller in the Wilder basement is only open for lunch, and it's the fastest option during lunchtime. My favorite approach to dining here is also one of the most affordable: whether you eat in or take out, a one-time trip to the salad bar is under $5, and if you do unlimited salad and soup bar, it's under $6.
My recommendations: Rathskeller, hands down, because their variety of salad toppings and homemade dressing change daily and it's the closest lunch spot to the communications office - but for student folks, it's centrally located and easily accessible to all of you, too. At Mandarin, I head toward sesame or mapo tofu. At Tooo, I always get the szechwan green beans (or if I'm feeling noodley, the veggie pad thai).
These options are available for lunch and dinner with no price difference.
The chicken potstickers at Strange Bird are $6.
Lupita's appetizer menu during lunch and dinner price is almost entirely under $6 and the a la carte menu allows you to pair up tacos, burritos, enchiladas, tamales, beans, and rice for under $6.
Kim's Korean Grocery & Carry Out has $5 rice bowls for dine in or take out:
- bulgogi (beef with stirfried cabbage)
- spicy pork
- chicken teriyaki
- chicken curry or hot chicken
- chapchae (potato noodles with veggies)
- veggie, kimchee, and pork dumplings
- pork, veggie, chicken, or red bean buns
Kim's house soups - kimchee, miso, and seaweed - are $1.99 for a small, $3.99 for a medium, and $5.99 for a large.
Speaking of soup: Aladdin's has AMAZING soup. Perhaps the best in town (other than what comes out of my kitchen, of course):
- V-Nine, lentil soup, chili, or the magical len-chili are all hearty bowls of goodness at $3.75 (I do recommend adding feta or ordering a side of their house hot sauce, each add additional 65 cents).
- If you're not feeling soupy, consider the chicken curry rolled pita ($4.95)
And I would be remiss to not include the rotating menu of tasty soups at Decafe: $1.99 for the soup of the day (my favorite is the chicken pot pie soup, the wild rice soup, or the Italian wedding soup) or the house chili (vegan on days where the soup of the day contains meat, meaty on the days when the soup of the day is veggie).
My recommendations: Kim's bulgogi and chapchae are go-tos for me, and if I'm feeling down either because I'm sick or because it's cold and dreary out, I really enjoy the kimchee soup. I'm also deeply enamored with the hot sauce at Aladdin's, and will use any excuse to eat it on anything, which is usually their lentil soup with a side of pita.
The chicken curry rolled pita was recommended by Kasey, our editorial fellow, with the sentiment: "I'm not sure why it is significantly cheaper than every other sandwich on the menu, but it is under $5 and delicious." (I agree.)
According to my friend Dana over in the career center, the chicken soup at Lupita's ($4.99) will mend broken hearts and all sicknesses.
These options are available throughout the day for lunch and dinner, but after 10pm, these are the only options you'll have available to you.
The Feve, glorious spot for finger foods and bar fare, provides lunch, dinner, and late-night snacks (serving until midnight). Consider:
- a Nathan's hot dog and a side ($5)
- a three-piece chicken tender basket with a side ($5.25)
- grilled cheese with a side ($6)
- fried egg sandwiches with a side ($6)
Sides include fries, tots, a side salad, or hummus and pita, BUT for an extra dollar you can add a cup of soup or the daily bean. For the purposes of this post, you could only really add this to the hot dog to stay at the $6 requirement, but you can definitely get the soup of the day or the bean of the day as dishes on their own, too.
Agave, purveyor of choose-your-fillings burrito, taco, and nacho deliciousness, is open lunch, dinner, and late-night (serving til 2am). Consider:
- bean and rice burrito with sauces and toppings ($5.50)
- half nachos with your choice of toppings ($5, though it's worth adding guacamole for an extra dollar)
- two hard or soft tacos ($5.50)
- half-a-dilla with sour cream, guacamole, and salsa ($5.50)
- a side of rice and beans ($2)
- chips and guacamole and salsa ($2.75)
Agave serves until 2am.
My recommendations: At the Feve, Nathan's hot dog + fries + three dipping sauces (my favorites are the chimichurri mayo, coconut curry, and just right wing sauce) for my 'dog and 'tats clocks in at $6 (Sarah of aforementioned "Add the bagel to your BRC breakfast plate" fame recommends this too). At Agave, half nachos are totally where it's at (my favorite combo is house queso, shredded chicken, refried beans, rice, sweet potatoes, spinach, corn, and pickled onions with tomatillo lime salsa).
Call them snacks, call them meals at any hour, but sometimes you need noms at a less-traditional time. (Thanks, college, for teaching me that remembering to eat semi-regularly when busy/stressed/running around endlessly is vital, and that "dinnertime" can totally happen at 4:30pm or 10:30pm depending on the day.)
Hand-held goodness includes the filled croissants at Slow Train ($3.75) and of course bagels at The Local! You choose your bagel (plain, poppy seed, egg and cheese, cinnamon raisin, everything, and sesame) and then add a few cents more to get toppings (cream cheese, Nutella, butter, pesto, hummus, almond butter, caprese or cream cheese and pesto). Even the most expensive of these combos (the caprese) clocks in at under $5, and most of the options here round out at a little over $2.
Yes, all those beautiful boxes behind the counter are filled with bagels!
Sometimes you need some liquid sunshine, also known as a fruit smoothie:
- Decafe offers build-your-own smoothies with a variety of fruits and tasty liquids (chai, yogurt, Silk, and juice).
- Aladdin's includes an assortment of fresh fruit smoothies for $3.85.
- Treehuggers Cafe has fruit, veggie, and/or coffee smoothies, all for $5.
As a kid growing up, hummus was a staple in my house far before it was a popular please-all spread and dip (hippie parents + roots in the Mediterranean = go-to snack) but nowadays, it's everywhere, including all over Oberlin:
- Strange Bird has lemon hummus with warm naan ($6).
- The Feve serves a side of hummus ($2.75) or a full order ($6), both served with pita.
- Slow Train also serves hummus with warm pita, which I learned is supplied by the Feve ($2.50).
Speaking of the Feve, I would be remiss if I didn't include:
- french fries (small $3, large $4)
- tater tots (small $3.25, large $4.25)
It's also worth adding either dry seasoning for 25 cents (I like the Cuban and Megan) or roasted garlic butter for a dollar or adding a few dipping sauces to keep each bite exciting for 50 cents per sauce/three sauces for a dollar.
Most of the items at Cowhaus Creamery are under $6 (just how things go at an ice cream shop) but the cheapest and also the cutest item on the menu is the World's Smallest Sundae: a small scoop of vanilla, chocolate, or caramel sea salt ice cream with house whipped cream, hot fudge, salted peanuts, and a cherry is a cool $1.50.
It's the perfect amount of ice cream deliciousness I need! It's a Ma'ayan sized sundae!
My recommendations: When it comes to creamy drinks: consider an all-peach smoothie with half Silk and half chai (or half Silk and half grape juice) at Decafe and the strawberry smoothie at Aladdin's. Tanya made me try her Jumpin' Java smoothie at Treehuggers and I'd recommend that to anyone who likes coffee (sadly, though, not me). When it comes to hummus, I'm quite partial to the Feve's, which I like eating with a drizzle of Cholula while sitting there in the glorious ambience.
Okay. It's time to publish and figure out my lunch plans. One of each of the above, please!

Interview with the translator, Helen Wallimann, on
A great book to read and discuss for Book Clubs groups
This book lends itself to interesting discussion. The theme encompasses the development of a renewed friendship between a middle-aged son and his dying father, an accomplished stone mason who is now resident in a nursing home. This book is well written, the characters making difficult choices and dealing with life issues that readers can readily identify with.
by Heidi Inman
I had read the original in German, but have found the English version very well translated and it catches the pathos of the crotchety old timer with kindly affection.
by Tony Raeber
An oddly touching novella with a sense of elegaic loss, defeat and inevitability. Yet this book is not depressing. It has a sadness, or perhaps a classic European ennui found in the works of Camus, Kundera and Mercier. The protagonist is unemployed, his wife is having an affair and his father is dying. With a certain inertia, the younger man connects with his ebullient father less as a relative, more as a member of the audience. It's touching and truthful and thought-provoking. There are so many layers here - the father's stonemasonry, the son's typesetting. The individual and the collective, the military and the Swiss culture all play their role in this short yet powerful rendition of a relationship. Well worth a read.
I was favorably impressed, first of all, by the wonderfully spare prose style. It was oddly refreshing. Although the plot of the novel is fairly straightforward--a son helps his cancer-stricken father through the last year of his life. The novel is narrated by the son. What made the novel hard to put down is not the plot but the son's constant questioning of what the meaning of it all is. And it is not just his father and his father's cancer but also the changing nature of work, his unemployment, the slow dissolution of his marriage, national service, news and the meaning of his life. This is balanced with a matter of fact descriptive tone.
I was particularly intrigued by the younger Haller--his disconnect with his father, the community around him, his wife and the world generally. Yes, he listens to the news but it seems to have no impact on him. The sense of futile abeyance that emanates from him reminded me of certain characters from writers like Camus and Kafka. He seems to spend his life waiting for something but what that may be remains elusive. That his craft, he was a typesetter, has been destroyed by the thoughtless march of modernity also resonated with me.
This is a novel to get you thinking.
