Weâve all heard the console war debates comparing Xbox to PlayStation. Over Thanksgiving break, I listened to my dad and brother attempt to decipher which one they should aim to secure during Black Friday. However, both consoles weigh almost 10 pounds, making them awkward to haul around during road trips or bring to a friendâs house. For more lightweight gaming, two popular portable alternatives are the Nintendo Switch and iPhone gaming. Hereâs what you should know about the two before you make your next gaming purchase.
Nintendo Switch
Reaching almost 80 million sales since its launch in early 2017, the Nintendo Switch is a popular gaming option among both men and women in the college age demographic. As of February 2021, it also had the highest buyer penetration, which means that itâs being used by the highest number of customers in its specific market. Weighing in at only .88 pounds, the Nintendo Switch is an appealing option for on-the-go fun.

A few times a week, Elizabeth Reninger ambles to a pizza restaurant near her job for lunch. She orders the same thing every time: a cheese slice and fries for $6. For a little adventure, she sprinkles on some Parmesan and red pepper flakes.
Before the coronavirus pandemic swept across the country, Ms. Reninger, a criminology student at Northern Arizona University who also works at a dog day-care facility, estimated that she ate pizza only once every couple of months. That changed late last summer when she strolled into a Slice and Ice pizza parlor.

If you receive a delivery of masks in the coming month, don t worry, it s not a new scam or strange conspiracy it s just the state of Ohio working to help folks aged 65 and over stay safe while the pandemic continues this winter.
The Ohio Department of Aging and the Ohio Department of Health plan to mail 10 million disposable face masks throughout the state this month to 2.1 million Ohioans. Each mailer will include five masks and information about staying healthy through the coming winter months.
Over Thanksgiving break this year, Lawton Public Schools offered its Grab and Go meal program to students. During that time, 685 students were served around 9,500 meals. According to LPS officials, the demand was so great that many were forced to turn away because of the lengthy line of cars.
This week, when the school district prepared to hand out meals for Christmas break, the number of pickup locations had been expanded in anticipation of a high level of need. Traffic congestion was alleviated with 11 pickup sites across the city hopefully allowing more families access to the free meal service.
Every student enrolled in Lawton Public School qualifies for the free meals under the districtâs nutrition plan. Additionally, anyone under the age of 18 is allowed to participate regardless of school enrollment.
