Embracing the spirit of the multi-ethnic cuisines that permeate Aurora, one eatery is blending some of those unique flavors into its sandwiches.

While Google Docs and Sheets are powerful tools, they have a reputation for being memory-intensive apps. If your computer is slowing down while using these applications, there are several easy ways to reduce their RAM usage and improve performance.

Dear Eric: My friend has been totally engrossed with messaging celebrities through Telegram. So far, she has been in contact with four musicians. Two of the four have promised to come visit with her. After the first celebrity visit fell through, I asked her repeatedly to block this contact. She vacillates between blocking and then unblocking him because she just wants to read his message. It seems as if this has taken on a life of its own, with the constant messaging and planning for the visits.

Time management apps are everywhere, promising to streamline your schedule, boost productivity, and make the most of every minute. I bought into this promise, trying out app after app in hopes of mastering my daily routine. While this practice initially gave me a feeling of accomplishment, I eventually decided to step away from these apps.
