Bird is the word: Yardbird Kitchen offers healthy, diverse cuisine made with local ingredients

By Katy Canada

The funky vibes of Yardbird Kitchen on South Church Street will hit you square in the face the second you open the door and smell sweet pastries baking in the back. From the offbeat pictures hanging on the walls to the Edison chandelier in the back corner, the atmosphere of this new restaurant is bringing something original to the Burlington restaurant scene. There is no shortage of restaurants in Burlington, but many of them are large fast food chains that do not offer diverse options.

Anonymous Elon Twitter accounts: #stereotypical

By The Pendulum

Who doesn’t love a shout-out from @ElonGDIProblems addressing Jesus as “Everyone’s favorite GDI”? There are tons of anonymous Twitter accounts focused on Elon University’s campus culture, and, let’s face it, they’re witty and entertaining and we probably scroll a little slower when a tweet from @ElonConfessions appears on our feed. Last month, @Elon_Black_Prob tweeted, “Just because the professor mentioned diversity doesn’t mean you all stop writing typing and texting to look at the lone black person.” Two weeks ago, @TheElonGay tweeted, “Stop what you’re doing and go pet the cats/bunnies/puppies outside Moseley!

The Last Word: The war on pollen

By Jonathan Black

Every morning I awaken, and in the confusion between trying to turn an alarm off with an arm that fell asleep and wondering what day it is,  I remember the war that is consuming my life. The enemy is everywhere, and like Antoine “Bed Intruder” Dodson, I am on the constant lookout for it to climb into my bed. The enemy is pollen. And like Harry Potter, Katniss Everdeen and any other young adult novel hero not including dead-eyed Bella Swan, I am looking to vanquish my mortal enemy. But unlike Harry Potter, I am without my support system and am calling on Elon students to apply for the positions of intelligent, and trustworthy female sidekick and useless, blubbering male best friend. Without my sidekick Hermione Granger, how will I ever learn to finish homework and vanquish evil, all the while maintaining a healthy social life? As for my Ron Weasley counterpart… well, Ron is pretty useless and abandoned his friend one too many times.  I can’t have a friend of mine abandoning me when I reach stardom shortly into my post-college career.

Marathon bombs resemble more sports disturbances

By Jordan Spritzer

When tragedies such as the Boston Marathon bombing, the September 11 attacks and the various shootings in recent years occur, sports often act as a distraction. After the 9/11 tragedy, I remember well Mike Piazza’s game winning home run against the Atlanta Braves 10 days after the attack.
