Homegirl Cafe offers ‘platos’ by ex-gang members with hope LOS ANGELES (AP) — In a different time, at another place, and under other circumstances, you might have run away from Latisha Valenzuela and Glenda Alvarenga. But at Homegirl Cafe, a Los Angeles breakfast and lunch spot with a Latino twist, the two waitresses welcome you with smiles and friendship. “You alone?” Valenzuela asked when I recently visited. “Don’t worry. We’ll keep you company.” After seating me, she tells me, “you’ll want our cinnamon coffee. We make it ourselves.” She says it as if we’ve been friends since middle school. Here, in the City of Angels, Homegirl Cafe offers a unique dining experience with food prepared by former gang mem- bers gaining new skills. It’s a haven for them, to be sure. But the popular cafe in the city’s Chinatown is a special place for visitors, too, providing carefully crafted meals along with inspiration from ex- inmates who willingly tell stories about how they are seeking a better life. And where these hands once hurt others, now they are steering their energies to serve pleasurable, satisfying dishes made with love and perseverance. The hip cafe is an offshoot of the Homeboy Industries social enterprises founded by Jesuit priest Greg Boyle. After working in one of the city’s poorest and most gang-plagued regions, he quickly found out that businesses wouldn’t hire former gang members and inmates, even when they had marketable skills. So, he formed nonprofit businesses aimed This undated photo provided by America’s Test Kitchen in July 2018 shows clams with pearl couscous, chorizo, and leeks at giving jobs and training to the “least of these,” as the poor in Brookline, Mass.

(AP) — Over 3,000 miles from the trenches and battlefields of the Western Front, where many hundreds of thousands had already died, residents of Orleans, Massachusetts, were enjoying a typical summer morning on July 21, 1918, waiting for the fog to lift off the shore. Then suddenly, a German U-156 submarine broke the surface and brought World War I home. Orleans became the only part of the United States to be shelled by the enemy. For a brief moment, “over there” had become “over here.” Just after 10.30 a.m., the heavy thump of something hit- ting land signaled the first attack on American soil in 100 years. “I don’t know if it was the first shot or the sound of my feet hitting the floor,” the late Ruben Hopkins, then a 22-year-old guard at Orleans’ lifesaving station No. 40, recalled in a recording. “I was out of my bunk up there in seconds flat.” To this day, it remains a mystery why such an advanced submarine would attack a target that had no real value. While instilling fear in the American public by attacking shipping was a tactic, going so close to shore seemed an undue risk. One theory is that the sub had hoped to cut the underwater communications cable that ran from Orleans to France. A commemoration is planned for Saturday afternoon on Nauset Beach to mark the 100th anniversary. That day, the Perth Amboy tug, towing four barges, was taking the long route around the elbow of Cape Cod rather than passing through the newly opened Cape Cod Canal. German Capt. Richard Feldt’s U-156 was watching and Kinky Friedman played a solo show in Collinsville, CT recently. started shooting. Looking out from the station watchtower window, Hopkins recalled: “I could clearly make out the shape of the submarine. I saw a splash where it hit in the water next to the tug.” Rawk Report The Perth Amboy took a direct hit to the pilothouse, and a member of the crew was wounded. The sub then directed its attention to the barges. The local lifesavers, some of the best in the U.S., launched their boat directly into the line of fire. Their motto: “You have to go out, but you don’t have to come back.” Nothing, Outlaw Kinky Friedman however, really prepared the lifesavers for such a close encounter with the enemy. Residents flocked to the beach to see what the excitement was about before shells hitting land sent some scurrying back home. Dr. Danforth Taylor, visiting his daughter on the bluff above Nauset Beach, telephoned The Boston Globe Rides in to Town immediately.

Post 124 (12-7) was elimi- nated. The night started on a good note for Westfield. After Wilbraham loaded the bases on an error, a walk and an infield single, starter Devin Baker struck out the next batter on three pitches to end the threat. Post 124 then immediately went ahead in the bottom of the first. Matt Masciadrelli reached on an infield single, stole second and took third on a ground ball out.

In the most recent Stress in America survey conducted by the American Psychological Association, 57 percent of Americans reported experiencing “significant stress” about the current political climate. I would ask your husband (non-factitiously) what he’s really getting out of all the news. What’s the use in having so much information if all you do with it is get angry? Suggest healthy outlets for his passion about these issues. He could get involved in politics at the community level, join a political discussion group or book club (check out Meetup) or even just volunteer once a month at an organization he believes in. I suspect he’ll feel better once he channels his energy into being the change he wants to see in the world. Dear Annie: I am a man in my 60s.

But then, in my early teens, our relationship took on a new and unanticipated aspect. We found that we shared an interest in girls, and as we grew through our teens and into our early 20s, we had many adventures together. When I married, Will was there and always supportive. It wouldn’t have been the same without him, and I’m sure my wife would agree. I never minded in the least the interest he showed in her. But now, Will seems to have lost much of his get-up-and-go.

DADDY’S HOME Tony Rubino and Gary Markstein YOUR Contract Bridge HOROSCOPE By Jaqueline Bigar

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Wednesday, July 18, 2018: This year you have several strong desires, which sometimes might conflict with each other. Understand that they are all a part of you.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH Pressure builds in an odd way. You might have misunderstood what someone has said. Try to remain levelheaded. Someone does not mean to challenge you, but inevitably does. You see how fast a loved one or associate comes to the rescue. Tonight: Do not push so hard. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHHH Speak your mind, but also make sure you return all calls. There could be a sur- prise awaiting you. A friend or loved one is unusually assertive. You’ll be happy to see this person become bolder, as he or she usually B.C.

Be careful not to push anyone in a ANDY CAPP Mahoney, Goldsmith and Garnett certain direction. Tonight: Hang out with friends. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH You could be overwhelmed by the demands of a parent or supervisor. You are full of smiles, but below the grin you could be swal- lowing a substantial amount of anger. Do not be surprised if you suddenly blurt out a harsh com- ment or statement. Tonight: Till the wee hours. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH You could be overly assertive or Cryptoquip acting out in a somewhat hostile way. You might have kept some strong feelings to your- self.
