Great Flavors Refined
Cindy Hemper

In this week’s Sidewalk Series, we take a stroll over to 602 West 18th St., to the Gelateria Barbara, where the gelato pops as the quintessential treat.

Gelato takes its roots in old Italy as a popular frozen dessert, and then later as an American variant of what is now ice cream. Gelato like most ice creams is made with some of the same ingredients Milk, cream, various sugars, flavoring including fruit and nut purees are the main ingredients in gelato...Read More

 

The Beat of a Different Dancer

By Cindy Hemper

 

With the arrival of summer in Erie, there are no limits to where dance can happen, transforming the city into a stage, popping up on street corners and stairwells, spilling out from storefronts onto sidewalks, and roving through our parks in the evenings.

 

The performances of local artist Brett Fallon have a similar knack for popping up on a stage, sidewalk or street corner, grabbing the attention of busy Erieites on a warm summer evening...Read More

 
         
 

Am I Depressed—and What Can I Do About It?

I often ask clients if they’re depressed, and a common response is that they don’t know. The definition of depression isn’t a deep, dark secret—it’s actually just a list of symptoms that describes one’s experience. So, if you think you may be depressed, see if the following scenarios are familiar to you.....Read More

 

Medical Smart Cards Find Their Niche

Unified health systems and limited infrastructure offer opportunities to medical-IT innovators.

Most countries, including the U.S., lack integrated online patient-record systems. Patients visiting new doctors need to fill out paper medical-history forms. What's more, over time, records can become spotty, incomplete, and difficult to access. This leads to both inefficiencies in the medical-record system, which cost money, and medical mistakes, which can cost lives....Read More

 
         
 

Google Rainbow Honors Gay and Lesbian Pride Month

Type in the word "gay" "lesbian" or "transgender" in Google's search box and you'll get a rainbow along with results, at least for the next few weeks. It's part of Google's nod to Gay and Lesbian Pride Month, celebrated in June each year...Read More

 

A Band on a Mission

By Jenna Croyle

 

Usually when we think of M-80s we think of the 4th of July, picnics and, of course, that loud firecracker with a big bang. This week’s featured band would not only be a great fit at any 4th of July party, but also comes with an even bigger bang...Read More

Joke Of The Week

 

A man went to a pet store to get a fish. He noticed a strange, colored fish and asked the owner what the fish was called. “That’s a parrot fish,” said the owner. “It sings like a bird.” The man looked doubtful so the owner told him he could bring the fish back if he wasn’t satisfied. A week later the man returned to the store to return the fish saying “You were right. The fish can sing. But, he’s horribly off key, and it is just too difficult to tuna fish.”

Quote of the Week

 

It is with rivers as it is with people: the greatest are not always the most agreeable nor the best to live with. ~ Henry Jackson Vandyke, Jr.

 

 

Did You Know...

 

The doors in public buildings open outward to allow a large number of people quick exit in case of danger, such as fire. If the doors opened inward, people might pile up at the exit as everyone pushed to get through at once instead of stepping back to allow space for the door to be opened.

The front doors of private homes mostly open inwards because they sometimes have to be removed from the hinges in to allow furniture to be moved in. If the hinges were on the outside, burglars could remove them easily. Since there are fewer people in a home, there’s no danger of a pileup at the door in case of fire.
