issue was all about the ladies, we thought it was only fair the June issue of Two Eighty Lifestyle be dedicated to the gents of our community. While we will celebrate the dads in our lives on Father’s Day, June 17, you don’t have to be a father to find something you’ll enjoy in these pages. Now that you’ve met the female movers and shakers of the community, we’ll introduce you to some influential men in this month’s feature. Learn about what makes them unique and how they’re impacting the community. If you haven’t already, you’ll probably run into one—or several—of them out on the town! Preparing for a night out with the guys? We’ll show you the perfect places in the community to grab a drink, watch the big game or just catch up with pals. If you’d rather stay in, we provide you the perfect recipe to whip up. It’s guaranteed to

ARTICLE TARYN LEIGHTON PHOTOGRAPHY SARAH-PEYTON GREEN
THE HUMIDOR ROOM IS A FULLY STOCKED CIGAR AND WINE BAR. It features a wide selection of wine and beer, and the TVs are always on and following the latest sports news and games. This is a great spot to meet up with friends, grab a drink and enjoy the homey style of the lounge while you unwind. The Humidor Room is known for its big humidor which keeps the humidity at a certain level for the cigars to remain fresh. This place is one big family with lots of regulars who kick back and relax after a long day at work. They also sell hookah to enjoy while you catch up with both old and new friends along the way. Along with the full bar, the cigar lounge always has music playing and is a very welcoming environment for happy hour.

Do two 30-second sets with 30 seconds of rest at each station. Repeat at all 15 stations. Thirty seconds of time under tension means you do as many reps as you can at your own pace. "[That] is why this is so great of a class—it is at their level, and they can work as hard or as easy as they need to," Dewayne says.

WHAT EXCITES YOU MOST ABOUT THE WORK YOU DO? What excites me most about the work we do is witnessing health transformations and true healing miracles happen right in front of us every day, in patients of all ages. It is so much fun to be a part of the vitalistic wellness lifestyle that our patients choose through chiropractic care and enhanced nutrition. Teaching and empowering people to live healthier is paramount to our mission in helping patients realize their optimal healing and wellness potential without the need for drugs and surgery. WHAT IS YOUR PASSION? My passion is the health and wellness of my family and community. By helping those around me to understand the true power of natural health, and helping patients harness the limitless healing potential within one’s own body, we can be free of the shackles of symptoms and diagnoses. Helping others is my passion, as is teaching and empowering those who want more for themselves and their families. My other passion is music; I play guitar and bass, currently with a local band formed through Mason Music. I have played with several bands in Atlanta and Tuscaloosa as well, playing styles from folk to rock. DESCRIBE A GOAL YOU HAVE FOR THE COMMUNITY. My goal for the community is to help as many families unleash the power of your limitless natural healing, in a stress-free and nurturing environment, without the need for drugs and surgery. I would love to welcome those who seek a healthier and less stressful life, and to help them learn about how our wellness team can help our community thrive today.

IF YOU’RE MAKING HOMEMADE FRIES, FRY THEM TWICE TO MAKE THEM EXTRA CRISPY.
Cumin, to taste Garlic salt, to taste Cayenne pepper, to taste
DIRECTIONS 1. Add the cheese, milk and butter to a saucepan and heat over low heat until the cheese is melted. You can add additional milk based on how thin you want your sauce to be. 2. When cheese is melted, remove from heat and stir in chiles and seasoning to taste. 3. Pour over crispy fries and top with bacon, caramelized onions and herbs as desired.
CHANGE IT UP Use the cheese sauce as a base, but consider changing up the toppings for unique flavors. Ideas include cajun fries topped with andouille sausage, cajun shrimp and olive tapenade; loaded baked potato fries topped with sour cream, cheddar, bacon and scallions; or buffalo chicken fries topped with buffalo chicken, ranch, blue cheese crumbles and chopped celery.
