Each recipe in the cookbook is tied to a location. The first, for CPS bread, is inspired by Vijs memory of picking fruit in
11、her grandfathers garden in Temescal Valley.The University of California Irvine first year student intends to major in literary journalism and minor in environmental science, but baking is in her blood. “I want to work at newspapers or magazines and write columns, specifically about the environment.
12、I love to write, but my dream job is to own my own bakery,” Vij says. “Thats really my passion.”“UCI was a good fit for me because my family is around me,” Vij says. “Family is a really big part of my life something I can depend on and I go visit them a lot.

Similarly, just 25% of men say theyve said “I love you” to a friend recently, as opposed to 49% of women.Its part of an “epidemic (流
18、行病) of loneliness” that director Lukas Dhont says he wanted to explore in his new drama “Close”, which is Oscar-nominated (提名) for best foreign language film. It follows two close teen boys.“Close” begins with Leo and Remi during summer vacation: running, biking and sleeping together in the peaceful
19、 Belgian countryside. They think nothing of their close connection sharing beds at sleepovers or resting their heads on each others shoulders until they return to middle school, where they are teased by their classmates. Consequently, Leo starts avoiding Remi and joins a hockey team. Remi, meanwhile
20、, becomes deeply depressed.“We live in this society that teaches young men to stop caring for trusty connections and be more distant with emotions,” Dhont says. There are all sorts of social standards that lead men and women in very different directions when it comes to friendship. Part of the probl
21、em is that young men are encouraged to build shoulder-to-shoulder friendships in team sports or group activities, rather than one-on-one relationships.

Advocating publicly works for male friendship.D. Bromantic comedies influence young men badly.CIf youve ever felt “butterflies in your st
26、omach” when nervous, youre likely getting signals from an unexpected source: your second brain. Hidden in the walls of the digestive system, this “brain in your gut (肠道) ” is revolutionizing medicines understanding of the links between digestion, mood and health.

27、e enteric nervous system (ENS 肠神经系统).The ENS is two thin layers of more than 100 million nerve cells lining your gut.

In a way, doctors who treat digestive conditions are like advisors looking for ways to comfort the second brain. Psychological approaches also help to improve communications between the big brain and the
