Last spring, the Massachusetts Historical Society acquired a prescription recipe book kept by Charles Lyman Hubbell from 1880 to 1888. In this book, Dr. Hubbell, a physician of Williamstown, Mass. and Troy, N.Y., recorded his own recipes for prescriptions, as well as those he learned from other doctors and medical journals. It’s a very interesting (and sometimes amusing) window into late 19th-century medical history.

Ouch. I just got my bill for trash hauling. Currently, we have a monopolistic, national hauler system in Amherst that bought up all of our beloved local haulers. It overcharges us and does little to reduce waste. It holds all the cards and is not transparent. Try looking up prices on its website. You won’t find anything.

Based on Jane Austen’s novel, “Pride and Prejudice”. I never expected a two and a half hour stage play with five actors based on Jane Austen’s novel, “Pride and Prejudice,” to be fun. However, that is what it is. Everyone plays two or more characters and even the actress playing the lead, Elizabeth Bennet, steps out of character to deliver narration and commentary. That is one of the things that playwright and director Daniel Elihu Kramer does with this play. The actors aren’t just playing the Austen character, they are also playing students, kids, professors, Jane Austen herself, and the narrative voice of the book.

For the past few years, some Amherst Town Councilors have been pushing to have a parking structure built in the historical residential area on North Prospect Street (see e.g. here, here, here and here). The last studies done in 2018 stated that additional parking spaces are not needed. To this day, this is still evident because the town municipal parking lot adjacent to the CVS parking lot, as well as the surrounding street parking are never full. To my knowledge they have never been filled. So, why the big push? Well, you be the judge!
