While autumn is the quintessential season for baked goods, I returned to sunnier days to make my boyfriend an ice cream cake for his birthday this past weekend. The clear skies and mid-70s weather Sunday paired beautifully with a cotton candy, Oreo-caramel ice cream cake. Surprising my boyfriend with his favorite ice cream flavor from the beloved Moo Thru at the Dairy Market, combined with delicious Oreos and rich caramel sauce, this cake made our celebrations all the sweeter. This simple ice cream cake recipe is easy to customize and the perfect surprise treat for a celebration.

With a seemingly endless array of options, fans can purchase nearly any piece of gear imaginable — given such a high output, maintaining high ethical standards for the manufacturing of these products requires a high level of commitment.

For arguably the first time since the season-opening loss against Tennessee, Virginia football was outclassed against Georgia Tech. The Cavaliers (2-7, 1-4 ACC) fell victim to a laundry list of injuries against the Yellow Jackets (5-4, 4-2 ACC), namely senior starting quarterback Tony Muskett going down and forcing freshman Anthony Colandrea to enter the game and therefore burn his redshirt, which also affected Virginia’s strategy given the stylistic differences between the two players. Rebounding against No. 11 Louisville will be extremely difficult, but Coach Tony Elliott and his squad have proved they are capable of taking down this level of opponent already this season, hoping to enact a similar fate on the Cardinals (8-1, 5-1 ACC) as then-No. 10 North Carolina.

Swords into Plowshares, an ongoing project by community leaders to melt down and repurpose the Robert E. Lee statue, has reached a major milestone — two weeks ago, the statue was cleaved and its parts were melted down. The metal will be transformed into a new piece of public art. The Lee statue has had a significant impact on Charlottesville — unveiled to honor the Confederate general in 1924, it served as a symbol for neo-Nazis and white supremacists to gather around in 2017 during the ‘Unite the Right’ rally. In fact, the rally was held to protect the statue, which the Charlottesville City Council had, at the time, considered removing from its place in Market Street Park. The Lee statue was eventually removed in 2021 and, after more than a year of litigation, it finally faced the flames just a couple of weeks ago.
