Jersey County Arts Council seeking singers for children’s choir The Jersey County Arts Council is seeking singers for the fall session of the Children’s Community Choir.

The choir was formed last spring and met throughout the summer. The weekly rehearsals culminated in a well-received Disney concert in early August. Once again, the group will be directed by Cory Frank and accompanied by Christine Bear. A $30 participation fee will be charged, and scholarships are available.

An orientation and initial rehearsal will be held Tuesday, Oct. 11, 6-7pm, at the First Presbyterian Church in Jerseyville, located at 400 S. State St. The choir is open to all students in 1st through 7th grades. Contingent upon enrollment numbers, the choir may be divided into younger and older groups of singers, with separate rehearsal times.

The church’s north entrance will be open for guests, and children must be accompanied by an adult.

Participants will paint a 14-inch by 11-inch canvas of sunflowers in front of a vintage truck with a lovely sunset behind. The cost is $35.

Registration for both the children’s choir and the painting class may be found on the arts council’s Facebook page at facebook.com/ jerseycountyartscouncil.

Cairns will teach an acrylic art painting class on Monday, Oct. 17, 6-8:30pm.

SECRET DINER Mexican cuisine mecca

By Bill Roseberry Big Z Media This restaurant is a hidden gem in southwestern Madison County that definitely deserves some love.

I adore the authenticity of this Mexican cuisine mecca and I don’t know if the word is out about its awesomeness. The unassuming building sits directly along the side of the road and features a very small parking lot in front.

There is also some room for parking on the sides of the building. The name of the establishment is displayed on the place, but there are no standalone signs near the road to identify it.

A few red round picnic tables are situated outside near the front entrance for patio dining on nice days. To get inside walk under a small awning to the entrance. Once inside there is an open dining area to the left, but a small bar area to the right with stools positioned in front of it.

There is a single restroom available past the small bar space down a short hallway.

The dining room is filled with a hodgepodge of different types of tables accompanied with wooden and metal chairs. It features a concrete floor with orange, green and red walls.

might not be anything to write home about, once you get your hands on a menu you’ll see a true work of art.

On a side note because of the size of the restaurant and the quality of the food, it can get quite busy, so be prepared for a possible wait.

It’s worth it.

Of course the first thing you get is a basket of tortilla chips and a bowl of salsa.

It is phenomenal, but be warned, the salsa does feature a substantial kick to it.

Figuring out what to order can be a chore because there are so many great choices.

I recently visited with a coworker during lunch hours and we were stoked about it.

After much deliberation, I settled on a breaded steak torta, while my friend went with the carne asada street tacos.

If you’re not familiar with what a torta is, it’s a Mexican sandwich served on a baguette-style bun commonly called a bolillo. To put it simply, it’s quite a bit of bread. I’ve had tortas that are underwhelming due to the bread being a little dry. That is not the case here.

The white airy bun was so fresh and doughy here. It was also made in house.

Inside that delicious bread were a slew of fresh goodies.

It started with that very lightly breaded steak, which

was super tender, then was finished off with huge hunks of avocado, lettuce, jalapenos, cheese and mayonnaise.

The mayo had a very unique taste to it, which was hard to put a finger on, but it was very good. The white cheese used was melty goodness that added another layer of flavor. I believe it was chihuahua cheese. There was a slight kick from the jalapenos, too. The biggest thing I took away was how fresh everything tasted. It was just super delicious and filling.

My friend was very happy with her street tacos, too.

The small corn tortillas were heaping with steak, cilantro and finely-chopped onions with a lime on the side. The corn tortillas are made in house, too.

She also added another unique offering from this joint — Horchata. It’s a rice water chock full of cinnamon flavor. It tastes like non alcoholic rum chata if you’re familiar with that cinnamonflavored spirit. It’s a cloudy, milky white color served over ice; just extremely different from anything I’d ever experienced.

I’ve been here several times and have yet to be disappointed. There are other authentic options available also. The sopes are delicious. A sope is basically

Overall: Cleanliness: Service: Food: Price: Any idea of the name of this restaurant?

Check the puzzle solutions to see if you are right. a thick, fried corn tortilla blanketed with savory toppings. Here those include a beef and potato option, a steak option and pork. All are great and filling.

Other things that fill up the menu include gorditas, quesadillas, burritos, soups, flautas, enchiladas and fajitas.

Of course earlier I said there was a bar, so you can partake in some adult beverages if that’s your fancy. They offer options like wine, domestic and imported beers as well as margaritas.

For some non-alcoholic choices they also feature a line of Jarritos, which are Mexican sodas. 3

10 | OCTOBER

Use that momentum to win!

DEAR DAVE: We are ready to start Baby Step 2, and we have about $35,000 in total debt. Our two smallest debts, a credit card and a truck we financed, are both $4,500 right now, and we have a combined income of about $95,000 a year. Since the credit card has a higher interest rate, my wife thinks we should pay it off first. To me, the truck is a necessity, and we should pay it off first for that reason. What do you say? -- Grant DEAR GRANT: When the rule of paying off debts from smallest to largest doesn’t apply, I think you should attack the one with the larger interest rate first.

In your case, that’d be the credit card debt.

I get what you’re saying about the truck. And I agree that transportation is a necessity. You guys might be in a bind if something happened and you lost a vehicle, but it’s also a situation you could probably work around for a little while if you had no choice. My guess is you have friends or relatives who could loan you a car in a pinch, and public transportation is an option for some folks. So yeah, knock out the credit card first, then move on to the truck.

Do you understand my reasoning, Grant? Going this route serves two purposes: First, it will save you a little money. And second, I’ve got a feeling it will fire up your wife, and get her on board with the idea of you two getting your finances in order even more than she already is.

She’s taking this whole thing pretty seriously if she’s eyeballing interest rates, buddy. She loves the thought of you two having control of your money. Use this momentum to work together as a team, and knock out that debt!

How many years?

DEAR DAVE: My husband and I are debt-free. We are in our mid-20s, we also have a full emergency fund and we each have 401(k) plans with our employers. Currently, we are looking at life insurance.

We do not plan on having children, so what length term policies would you suggest for a couple in our situation?

-- Ashlie DEAR ASHLIE: I’d recommend you both find good 15- or 20-year, level term policies, with coverage amounts of 10 to 12 times

your individual incomes. If you two have a change of heart, and decide you want kids later, I’d recommend converting those to 30-year term policies, still at 10 to 12 times your incomes. Why? You’d want the insurance to be there to protect everyone in the family until the kids are out on their own.

Between now and then, and in the years after, your continued saving and wealth building will lead you to a place where you guys are self-insured. And that’s a great place to be!

Don’t let them hook you DEAR DAVE: My wife and I just bought a new home, and we only need one or two more things to furnish the living room. Over the weekend, we found a couch and love seat set we both like for $3,000. The owner of the store said he would take 15% off the price if we get a store credit card and pay for it that way. We are in pretty good financial shape, and can afford to pay cash for the furniture, but what do you think about the idea of taking advantage of the 15% off offer, then paying off the card immediately and closing the account?

-- Jackson DEAR JACKSON: Everyone thinks they’re the exception to the rule, or they’re somehow winning or getting rich by doing stuff like this.

It doesn’t work that way.

Your idea might sound good on the surface to a lot of folks, but the problem is the vast majority of those same people don’t have the discipline to follow through on a plan like this. Having that store account, even for a short period of time, would be too much of a temptation.

Another issue is many places like this hit you with a fee when you pay off the card. They’ll fee you to death on other things, too, if you’re not careful, until you end up wishing you’d never even seen the place.

If it were me, I’d just talk to the owner again and let him know I’m taking my business elsewhere unless he discounts the furniture 15% on a cash purchase.

There’s no way I’d take out a stupid credit card for a place like that whether I had the cash on hand or not! 3 Dave Ramsey is a seventime #1 national best-selling author, personal finance expert, and host of The Ramsey Show, which airs 1-3pm weekdays on WBGZ 107.1FM / 1570AM.

MOMENTS IN TIME The History Channel • On Oct. 6, 1866, the Reno gang carries out the first robbery of a moving train, making off with $13,000 from a train in Indiana. This new method of sticking up moving trains in remote locations that were low on law enforcement, instead of trains sitting in depots, soon became popular in the American West.

• On Oct. 4, 1927, sculpting begins on the granite images of presidents Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln and Roosevelt at Mount Rushmore. Jefferson’s image was originally fashioned to the right of Washington. Within two years, the face was badly cracked, and workers blasted the sculpture off the mountain. Sculpting began again with Jefferson on the left side of Washington.

• On Oct. 5, 1947, President Harry Truman makes the first televised presidential address, asking Americans

to cut back on food to help starving Europeans. He requested that the public voluntarily forgo meat on Tuesdays, eggs and poultry on Thursdays and to save a slice of bread each day.

• On Oct. 8, 1956, New York Yankees right-hander Don Larsen pitches the first no-hitter in the history of the World Series. It was a perfect game that no one matched until Philadelphia Phillies pitcher Roy Halladay in 2010.

• On Oct. 9, 1967, socialist revolutionary and guerrilla leader Che Guevara, age 39, is captured and executed by the Bolivian army. In 1997, Guevara’s remains were found and sent back to Cuba, where they were reburied in a ceremony attended by President Fidel Castro and thousands of Cubans.

TWO SUITES AVAILABLE FOR LEASE • Can be used as office or medical space

a role he last played in 1971.

The film’s title referenced the fact that the Scottish-born actor had previously remarked that he would never play Agent 007 again.

• Access to shared conference room, kitchen area, and bathrooms • Parking, outdoor maintenance, and common area cleaning services are included

• On Oct. 3, 1995, Heisman Trophy winner O.J. Simpson is acquitted of the double murder of his estranged wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend, Ronald Goldman, despite a DNA match, a wound on Simpson’s hand, the recent purchase of a Stiletto knife and matching shoeprints at the scene. 3

STRANGE BUT TRUE

• In 1992, Saab created a prototype vehicle called Prometheus that featured a joystick in place of a steering wheel. While it increased safety and space, it also proved more tiring and challenging to use, and the car never made it to production.

• A one-eyed yellowtail rockfish at the Vancouver Aquarium was given a

• Here’s an incentive to keep up your hygiene: When scientists examined the genetic makeup of bacteria in navel lint from 60 volunteers, one notable subject who hadn’t washed for several years was found to host two species of extremophile bacteria that typically thrive in ice caps and thermal vents!
