The long-awaited resolution was reached overnight on Nov. 8, nearly four months after film and television actors went on strike.

Marcus Shell has evolved his cooking into more than just a way to sustain himself. For the 39 Rue de Jean executive chef and South Carolina Chef Ambassador, food is his way of self-expression. It was not just a hop, skip and a jump from his mom’s scrambled eggs to serving food at an established restaurant in Charleston. Shell grew up in New Bedford, Mass., home to one of the East Coast’s largest commercial fisheries. Surrounded by seafood, Shell saw cooking pique his curiosity at a young age.

Jake Kusmider, former College of Charleston tennis team standout, has made the switch to pickleball and has not looked back.

This is part of The Post and Courier’s Daily Digest series, in which one of our food reporters asks a local to describe a day of eating in detail. Aaron Lipka teaches Latin at Ashley Hall. He has been a Latin instructor in Charleston for just over 20 years. For me, breakfast is often scrambled eggs and toast with butter, but if I am in a hurry a bowl of Greek yogurt with blueberries and granola. In both cases, at least one cup of coffee with honey and cream.

On his 25th birthday, Manny Houston jumped out of an airplane because he was afraid of heights. At 29, Houston is committed to fearlessly approaching his artistry. “Wonderstruck: A Stevie Wonder Spectacular” — the show Houston is performing at the Charleston Music Hall on Aug. 26 — will transcend not only genres but art forms. From off-Broadway theater to freestyle hip-hop to classical piano, Houston has done it all, and all of those skills will be on display.
