Trash/Recycling Pickup Tomorrow
This Wednesday is a “Red Wednesday”, which means trash and recycling pickup. Ideally, rolling recycling containers are stored and deployed in the back alleys along with trash cans. Please make sure you pick up containers after pickup tomorrow night.
If you have not done so already, don’t forget to sign up for your Recycling Perks.
In order to take your recycling to the next level, read this: 10 ways to improve your recycling.
One good way to recycle is resell your usable items. A reminder that the deadline for registering as part of the upcoming April 8 neighborhood yard sale is this Friday, March 31.

Flying Brick Library Moving To Gallery 5
From FaceBook event Flying Brick Library Housewarming:
GOOD NEWS everyone! After months,ahem, years of planning the Flying Brick Library is moving & we couldn’t be happier. After over a dozen years in a private residence in Oregon Hill we’ve decided to take the plunge & expand to a public location. We are joining forces with the fine folks at the Richmond Zine Library at Gallery 5 in Jackson Ward. Now not only can you dive into the ever growing zine collection, but now you are welcome to cozy up to the hundreds of books that the library will have on hand.
Help us celebrate, not just our new digs, but also Gallery Five’s twelve year anniversary that week. Performances by Jake Mayday & Andrew Alli will round out a very festive evening.
Thursday, April 6 at 7 PM – 10 PM

Mr. Inge grew up in Oregon Hill in Richmond, attended Randolph-Macon College and received his law degree from the University of Richmond. Mr. Inge practiced law in Richmond for many years until he realized the dream of many lawyers and bought a fishing pier in the Outer Banks.

Solving The Middle East This Saturday
Well, that may be overselling it, but the Richmond Forum is hosting a program entitled “PEACE IN THE MIDDLE EAST: PROSPECTS AND ROADBLOCKS” this Saturday at the Altria Theater. It’s probably already sold out.
Ehud Barak has served as the Prime Minister of Israel and, more recently, as Defense Minister. Dr. Mohamed ElBaradei is a Nobel Peace Prize winner, the former head of the International Atomic Energy Agency, and was a leading figure in the 2011 Egyptian Revolution. For the first time anywhere, these two respected voices will sit down together for a discussion of their differing views on Middle East peace prospects in a conversation moderated by longtime journalist, author, and foreign policy analyst Robin Wright.
