Except for the Citgo sign in the sky . and a mob of marathoners on the earth, not much has changed in the later of these two views of Kenmore Square. The first dates from 1914 and the second from this past Patriots Day.

Kenmore Square has always been a kind of junction box in the street plan of Boston. It's the place where three big roads meet: Beacon Street (right foreground), Commonwealth Avenue (left foreground), and Brookline Avenue (disappearing to the right). For anyone journeying into town. from the west - from Brookline, Brighton, or
Newton - Kenmore Square is the place where the real Boston begins, especially since it has long been the point at which the subway first disappears underground.
Most of the buildings of today are already present in the 1914 photograph. The most interesting is probably the one with big windows that holds up the Citgo sign. This is the Peerless Motor Car Building of 1911, headquarters and showroom of an automaker, one of the first chunks of an "automobile row" that eventually stretched from Kenmore Square to Packard's Comer (Brighton and Commonwealth avenues) in Allston. Today the former Peerless building houses the Boston University Bookstore.
The other structures in 1914 were town houses or apartments dating from 1890 through 1910. The square became more commercial after 1912, the year Fenway Park
opened, only two blocks away on Brookline Avenue. Eventually, like other diagonal intersections of major streets - Times Square is the classic case - Kenmore
evolved into an entertainment center. Such intersections are also ideal locations for billboards.
A Boston icon presides over Kenmore Square. The huge neon Citgo sign, visible from up and down the Charles River and from inside Fenway Park, was to be scrapped in
1983. A group of citizens petitioned the Boston Landmarks Commission to save it. The commission praised the sign but chose not to declare it a landmark. However, the
resulting publicity led the advertiser to save and restore it. Still less than 30 years old, the Citgo sign today is regarded as an important relic of America's industrial heyday.
Kenmore Square has been so named only since 1932.Before that it was Governor's Square, and still earlier it was Sewall's Point. In ever-changing Boston, Sewall's Point
was the only solid land in a tidal salt marsh that became, when filled, the neighborhood we call the Back Bay.

U.S. Sen. David Perdue, R-Ga., on "Fox & Friends" on Monday.
The Jolt: GOP may need Hollywood boycott to offset 'heartbeat' law impact
Greg Bluestein
Tamar Hallerman
U.S. Sen. David Perdue, R-Ga., was on "Fox & Friends" this morning.
Given his business background, you might have thought that Perdue would have been talking about the tariffs that President Donald Trump increased to 25 percent on Friday.
Instead, Perdue and his Fox News hosts spoke of threats from some Hollywood types to boycott Georgia over its new "heartbeat' law, which requires most women to carry their pregnancies to term after about six weeks – before many know they're pregnant.
It goes into effect on Jan. 1, 2020.
President Donald Trump will be at the top of the ticket next year. Perdue, the next name down, already has at least one Democrat challenger after his job -- former Columbus mayor Teresa Tomlinson. Others are likely to follow.
Georgia's "heartbeat" law, which also bestows "personhood" at six weeks, is likely to be one of the dominating topics. The U.S. senator's Monday willingness to defend a state law tells us that. His appearance also tells us that intensifying the Republican base, rather than broadening its reach, will continue to be the larger GOP strategy in Georgia.
In fact, as we watched the video, a thought occurred to us: A wider Hollywood boycott of state's film and TV industry, though it might cost tens of millions dollars in business revenue, might also be necessary to help Georgia Republicans offset the disaffection of women voters in 2020.
In the face of a Hollywood boycott, the specific ramifications of the "heartbeat" law, which are likely to be many, could take a back seat to a protests against West Coast moral subversion. Not unlike President Trump's calculations that impeachment by U.S. House Democrats might actually increase his chances of re-election.
Below is a rough transcript of the video, which can be found here:
Perdue: "Georgia is rated for the sixth year in a row the best state in the country in which to do business. There's a reason for that. "Georgia does more traditional movie production than any other state, including California. A lot of infrastructure has been built down there, a lot of sound stages.
"It's ironic that several of these companies that are threatening to boycott have yet to do business in Georgia."
F&F: So they can say they're boycotting, but it really doesn't mean anything.
Perdue: It just shows that the rhetoric is more important than the reality. But look, Georgia's moved in this area. This governor did exactly what the state Legislature voted to do, what the people of Georgia elected him to do. And it's the law of the land today.
…Life is precious at any stage, and I think we're called to protect it as long as its there.
F&F: I grew up in the South, and I have a feeling that if this were happening in my state, in South Carolina, the people who live there would babies are more important than Hollywood coming to our state. We don't care if they choose not to be here. Is Georgia similar?
Perdue: Well, I think this vote shows that. This is not a radical right or liberal left issue here in Georgia. It's a moral issue, and I think the people of Georgia have spoken.
F&F: Where does it go from here? Do you think there will be more backlash?
Perdue: Well, you'll have to talk to the legal profession. But anything in this country now is litigious. I think you'll see cases brought to bear, and we'll see how the court reacts. But the encouraging thing about that is that, under President Trump, we've actually brought rationality back to our court system…
Vice President Mike Pence used his commencement address to Liberty University graduates over the weekend to warn about the "secular left" persecuting people for their religious beliefs. Pence specifically mentioned Hollywood actors boycotting Georgia over its heartbeat law, according to Newsweek.
More financial aid is coming for farmers being hit by new tariffs from the U.S.- trade war with China. On Friday, Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue said President Trump has asked him to draw up an assistance plan "quickly." From Reuters:
A new aid program would be the second round of assistance for farmers, after the Department of Agriculture's $12 billion plan last year to compensate for lower prices for farm goods and lost sales stemming from trade disputes with China and other nations.
On Saturday, Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders, the U.S. senator from Vermont, will cross the Savannah River to hold a town hall gathering in Augusta. It's part of a three-day blitz that will also bring him to Alabama, North Carolina and South Carolina.
So much for a new phase in Georgia's water wars -- this one over a 201-year-old boundary with Tennessee.
Earlier this year, Georgia lawmakers overwhelmingly adopted a resolution to form a delegation to negotiate a "true boundary line" with Tennessee, something that supporters expected Gov. Brian Kemp to swiftly sign into law.
Georgia maintains that the border has been mapped incorrectly since 1818, when surveyors mistakenly set the line between the states about a mile south of where it should be.
The purpose of this year's legislation wasn't to actually shift Georgia's northern state line. It was morale-boosting sabre-rattling for Georgians who feel the state is entitled to dip a straw into the mighty Tennessee River.
Gov. Nathan Deal had signed a similar bill. But when Kemp's list of vetoes emerged late Friday, it included House Resolution 51 for a simple reason: While Georgia may want to create a new commission to hash out the dispute, the governor wrote, North Carolina and Tennessee have shown no interest in doing so themselves.
Georgia, for its part, insists it doesn't want to annex the 51-mile stretch of misplaced land (and the 30,000 residents who live there). What it wants is a slice of the Nickajack Lake, opening the door to a costly new pipeline that could help quench Atlanta's thirst.
What Kemp's veto made clear: With Georgia engaged in a decades-long legal fight with Alabama and Florida, the governor isn't interested in unilaterally opening a new front just yet.
David Shafer's bid for Georgia GOP chair got a boost from U.S. Rep. Rob Woodall, who endorsed the former state senator in a letter to party activists.
"As we enter 2020, which is sure to be one of the party's most difficult challenges in over a decade, we need someone like David, who has navigated rough waters in the past, to chart a course to victory," wrote Woodall, who will not stand for another term after a tight victory.
Shafer is one of three candidates to succeed John Watson. Also running is Scott Johnson, the volunteer chairman of the state Board of Education, and Bruce Azevedo, the former two-term chairman of the Ninth District GOP.
Here's what we posted over the weekend on the coming GOP gathering.
Over at the Macon Telegraph, WSB Radio's Erick Erickson argues that activists assembling in Savannah next weekend for the Georgia GOP's state convention should be prepared to pass resolutions calling for the resignation of House Speaker David Ralston. Erickson warns that if they don't, Democrats could turn it into a campaign issue in 2020:
"The Republicans have only maintained their hold on the Georgia House by a handful of seats. Whoever wins in 2020 will control drawing the lines for state legislative and congressional districts for the next decade.
Do the Republicans want to gamble on the ads with victims? What about the victim who, at 14, had to perform indecent acts on an older man? What about the woman who was beaten by her boyfriend whose case went on for years as her memory went foggy?
These are the stories that penetrate an over saturated media market. These are the stories that provide compelling news stories."
This comes after a series of AJC reports found that Ralston was using his role as a legislator to get judges to delay trials for some clients, including those charged with criminal offenses. Ten of Ralston's House GOP colleagues have called for his removal, but their push hasn't caught on.
Former Atlanta mayor Kasim Reed on Saturday made a rare public appearance, giving a 20-minute commencement address at his alma mater, Howard University in Washington D.C.
Reed, a past member of the institution's board of trustees, spent much of his time extolling the value of a Howard University degree. "I never get Howard confused with Harvard, because I know how good Howard is," he said.
With his eight-year mayoral administration still under federal scrutiny, Reed stayed away from the current political climate – with one exception. From our AJC colleague Najja Parker:
[Reed] also addressed the recent controversy between the school and residents who've walked their dogs on the private campus.
"We are not a dog park. We are not a place for Frisbee tossing and latte sips — unless you're a student here," he asserted. "We are a mission institution with broad shoulders and big hearts ... So, no. Howard University will not be moving, and we will not be changing our address."

Good to know: 10 things students should know about job searching, but probably don't.
With the start of spring semester, many Saint Rose seniors and those completing their graduate studies are focused on – and perhaps put off by – the process of finding a job.
Conti: I think it is important to join or to visit with as many professional organizations as you can. These groups are always looking for students to come to their meetings. Go to as many of those meetings as you can.
Often times, departments here at Saint Rose bring these organizations to campus. You usually only see half a dozen students attending when there should be 40 or 50 students, given the opportunity for networking. In my department, we frequently have media professionals on campus. It's a really good opportunity for students to meet with them face to face, have them look at their résumés and give them feedback in a no-pressure and no-commitment way. If you impress them, you have a friend in your corner all of a sudden who can help you navigate the uncharted territories of job searching.
Even if there aren't opportunities on campus, there are always local chapters of organizations that meet off campus and welcome student involvement. Frankly, these organizations see so few students at their off-campus meetings that the ones that do come stick in their minds. It's really a huge asset to have that contact with people before you enter a job field.
On business cards: paper still counts!
Conti: When you network at social functions it isn't appropriate to have a résumé to stuff into someone's hand. A well-designed business card can contain a web URL that will take them to your portfolio site, which should contain a résumé. At virtually every meeting I have with someone who visits the campus I will be asked for a business card. It may seem quaint or antiquated, but it is still regarded as a business tool and I believe I would assess a student who had a business card to present as well-prepared.
They only need a simple business card, with their name, phone number, email address, and a URL link to an online profile.
Students should get rid of any silly or unprofessional email addresses. For example, I can recall an address of a candidate that was hotpants@(blank).com. Though the email address wasn't entirely the reason behind not hiring them, it did add to their character profile.
Try to get an email address that is as close to your name as possible. You have plenty of opportunities between Yahoo, Hotmail, Outlook, and Gmail. If none of those have your name available, for $25 you can buy the domain, and create whatever email address you want. For example, if your name is John Doe, your email account can be mail@johndoe.com. It looks very professional.
On assembling a portfolio: do if before you order your cap and gown!
Conti: I think the earlier you start with a profile the better off you are, simply because students who wait until the eve of graduation are unable to recover a lot of their material.
Increasingly, the online portfolio is replacing the analog version.It is more convenient and probably safer. Art majors probably are split between carrying examples around and having electronic portfolios. Music majors have largely migrated to online collections of their work. Business majors are using online portfolios.
I would suggest students start their portfolios as soon as they begin college and continue adding to it. I don't care what business you want to go into, your employer will want to know that you can write. Writing samples are really important in all of the disciplines here.
On showing your intellect: it's not all about you!
Conti: Interviewers frequently ask questions about current events, especially those related to the business that you are job-searching in.There are tons of professional publications for every single discipline on this campus that represent what is current in that area.There are places you can go to read all about that.
It can seem daunting to a college student who has nightly assignments: read X amount of chapters and Y amount of articles, and then, on top of that, worry about something else to read. It's not really as oppressive as it sounds. If you set aside an hour on a Saturday morning to do that reading, and do it on a regular basis, you would begin to retain that knowledge. You don't have to spend hours. Just make time once a week.
On expecting the unexpected: do not freak out!
Conti: You're always going to get these weird questions that come out of nowhere that are very difficult to answer. The kinds of questions they are going to ask will be like "If you were a chocolate bar, what kind of chocolate bar would you be?" You should be prepared for a question like that. These questions are used to see how a candidate handles themselves under stressful situations.
They will most definitely ask you questions about what they do and what their company is involved in. You should be prepared to answer those questions and discuss those topics with some level of intelligence.
On using super-sized web sites: nope. Think small!
On whether to apply or not to apply: see previous question!
Conti: People usually just apply to everything that seems like it's something they might be interested in. That's not always very efficient or very fruitful. You need to sit down and decide 'what do I want my job to be?' If it's your first job, what do you want your first job to be? Have an awareness that a first job does not have to be a forever job. Identify the jobs that you are interested in and then target the companies that have those jobs.
On customizing your resume: one size does not fit all!
Conti: I think it is very important to keep in mind that there isn't one resume or one cover letter that works for every position. You need to tailor the resume to the job that is posted. The job posting will say that they want X certain skills and Y certain qualifications and you need to be very clear in your résumé and cover letter that you have those skills and qualifications. A common mistake, especially with all these online job postings, is failing to submit the materials that they are asking for.
On holding the employer to his or her timeline: don't!
Conti: When job postings state things like "reviews will begin in two weeks" or give some sort of time frame, that's hardly ever true. There are a lot of things that can easily get in the way or take longer than expected in the hiring process. I wouldn't get frustrated if you don't hear from them initially, even if they do have a date. They will get to it when they can get to it.
On follow up: perseverance or pain in the neck?
Conti: I am an advocate of polite persistence. I realize that in some small number of cases that might irritate the individual offering the job. For a larger number it will demonstrate your resolve and your dedication to follow through. I encourage people to remember their manners and to be gracious no matter the response. Kill them with kindness.
When I was hiring reporters, individuals who stayed in touch during the process were demonstrating they would make good journalists.When they give you the opportunity to ask questions one of them should be: 'what the timetable is for making the decision?' Use that as your target date for sending a note or calling.Persistence will pay off more times than it will cause failure.

The room felt safe. Good Security on the building. It was a decent neighborhood to walk around. We had trouble getting the internet to work the entire time. the room was clean, so it smelled like someone had smoked in there despite there being a no-smoking rule.
Overall our stay was fine. Location to transport shops and restaurants was good. The apartment was reasonable. A few maintenance issues needed to be attended to, such as room heater did not work, to make toast or boil water you had to put the appliance on the floor.. the shower door kept coming off it's run and the refrigerator door was difficult to open. Our apartment did not have direct lift access we had to carry bags up a level.The worst thing about non managed front desks is giving the manager a definite time of arrival. Taking into account travellers who are not familiar with an area, the arrival time of flights trains and buses it is impossible to give an exact time. Why not introduce a self entry system that works well in other accommodation places that we have used previously. The "runner" Paula who did finally give us access was very comprehensive in her overview of the apartment. Not sure about the necessity of the contract perhaps they had problems in the past.
The WORST place I have ever stayed!!
PLEASE DO NOT BOOK WITHOUT READING THIS REVIEW! Nothing positive to say about this apartment. They emailed days in advance asking for a time to check in and I specified I would arrive between 16:30 and 17:00 on the first day. I arrived exactly at 16:30 to find no one waiting for me (they do not have a reception). I tried calling both mobile numbers that were provided to me: one was constantly engaged, the other did not exist - I thought it was a scam! I waited until AFTER 17:00 and eventually a woman came to check me in. After explaining the situation and informing her that none of the mobile numbers were working, she did not apologise once, but rudely said "what?" and walked off to the apartment. After signing a ridiculous contract where I was FORCED to give them my credit card details, I was still not given an apology or provided with a working telephone number, just a different email address to try. Inside the apartment, it was dirty, the shower doors were coming off the railing and the shower head was constantly falling off it's hinge. I will NEVER stay here again and would much rather pay 3 times the price for responsible staff and a nicer apartment/hotel.


With all the money the DNR has to put public accesses in how come they can only maintain them in the summer? Don't they know that allowing the ice to pile up will destroy their once usable boat ramps? If your looking for an example just check out lake Lida or Lizzie.
A lot of the landings on lakes are maintsined by local sportsman's clubs. The DNR is always being forced to cut their budgets and services. They do a great job with the limited funds they receive.
Maintaining an access in the winter is an expensive proposition; unless someone is willing to work on it on a daily basis it is almost hopeless. The movement of the ice sheet is very powerful, when it wants to move something it just does and there is not much any one can do except clean up the mess afterwards.
Depends on where the lake is. Up at my cabin the county takes care of the access. Up to a few years ago they wouldn,t plow the access on our lake due to the narrow road and steep hill, but since the highway was rebuilt and the raod to the lake widen'd they plow it all the time now. I liked it the old way.
Others have already stated it, and Blinkin, you touched on it as well. Many of the accesses are only installed by the DNR, not maintained by them. When the access is agreed to be installed, there is typically an agreement by county, or third party to do the maintenance.
What I have done in the past is called the DNR regarding an issue at a landing wether it be plowed roads to the access, in-accesible because of the landing itself etc and they will tell you who maintains the landing. Then you need to call whomever they identify as the "caretaker" as it's not the DNR's responsibility to chase the issue.

Alister Jack: 'Scotland has no desire to be part of European Union'
The Scottish secretary claimed that 'most Scots' realised their 'home was in the UK, not the EU'.

By James Delaney
Alister Jack has claimed Scotland "does not want to be part of the European Union" and knows the country's "home is within the United Kingdom".
The Scotland secretary made the claim when quizzed on the impact of Brexit on individuals, businesses, universities and public services in the House of Commons.
Jack, who backed leaving the EU in the 2016 vote, said Scots would choose the UK over the European block if they "stopped to think" about leaving the union.
The SNP's Dr Philippa Whitford cited a new poll which suggested almost 70% of voters wanted to rejoin the EU.
Around 62% of Scots backed remaining within the European community in the ballot, while remain topped the vote in every single council area across the country.
But Jack insisted that Scotland now saw its future outside the EU framework, adding: "There's no desire in Scotland to have membership of the EU, I believe Scots when they stop and look at the detail, whether it's on their pensions, whether it's on trade, whether it's on currency, they stop, they think about it and they know that their home is the UK.
"What I would say about the benefits of Brexit, we can make our own trade deals and we've made 71 to date."
Jack also rejected suggestions from Dr Whitford that becoming an independent country was the only way for Scotland to maintain a relationship with the rest of Europe.
"My colleagues have highlighted just some of the negative impacts of Brexit on individuals, businesses, universities and public services in Scotland," Dr Whitford said.
"There simply are no real Brexit opportunities or sunlit uplands. So does it come as a surprise to the secretary of state that a poll last year showed 69% of Scottish voters want to rejoin the EU?
She added: "With the Labour Party having now lashed itself to the mast of the floundering Brexit ship, does the secretary of state at least recognise the only route back to the EU for Scotland is an independent country?"
Jack responded: "The deficit in Scotland is considerably higher than the 3% which is the Maastricht criteria, that is not the route back.
"The currency is a problem as well because, as we know, the Bank of England is the bank of last resort and there would have to be a new currency in Scotland followed by membership of the EU."

Messengers from John the Baptist
1 Now it came to pass, when Jesus finished commanding His twelve disciples, that He departed from there to a teach and to preach in their cities.
2 b And when John had heard c in prison about the works of Christ, he 1 sent two of his disciples 3 and said to Him, "Are You d the Coming One, or do we look for another?" 4 Jesus answered and said to them, "Go and tell John the things which you hear and see: 5 e "The blind see and the lame walk; the lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear; the dead are raised up and f the poor have the gospel preached to them. 6 "And blessed is he who is not g offended because of Me."
7 h As they departed, Jesus began to say to the multitudes concerning John: "What did you go out into the wilderness to see? i A reed shaken by the wind? 8 "But what did you go out to see? A man clothed in soft garments? Indeed, those who wear soft clothing are in kings' houses. 9 "But what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I say to you, j and more than a prophet.
10 "For this is he of whom it is written:
k 'Behold, I send My messenger before Your face,
Who will prepare Your way before You.' 2
11 "Assuredly, I say to you, among those born of women there has not risen one greater than John the Baptist; but he who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he. 12 l "And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force. 13 m "For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John. 14 "And if you are willing to receive it, he is n Elijah who is to come. 15 o "He who has ears to hear, let him hear!
16 p "But to what shall I liken this generation? It is like children sitting in the marketplaces and calling to their companions,
17 "and saying:
'We played the flute for you,
And you did not dance;
We mourned to you,
And you did not 3 lament.'
18 "For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, 'He has a demon.' 19 "The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, 'Look, a glutton and a 4 winebibber, q a friend of tax collectors and sinners!' r But wisdom is justified by her 5 children."
Woe to Unrepentant Cities
20 s Then He began to rebuke the cities in which most of His mighty works had been done, because they did not repent: 21 "Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works which were done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago t in sackcloth and ashes. 22 "But I say to you, u it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the day of judgment than for you. 23 "And you, Capernaum, v who 6 are exalted to heaven, will be brought down to Hades; for if the mighty works which were done in you had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day. 24 "But I say to you w that it shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom in the day of judgment than for you."
Come to Me, and I Will Give You Rest
25 x At that time Jesus answered and said, "I thank You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that y You have hidden these things from the wise and prudent z and have revealed them to babes. 26 "Even so, Father, for so it seemed good in Your sight. 27 a "All things have been delivered to Me by My Father, and no one knows the Son except the Father. b Nor does anyone know the Father except the Son, and the one to whom the Son wills to reveal Him. 28 "Come to c Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 "Take My yoke upon you d and learn from Me, for I am 7 gentle and e lowly in heart, f and you will find rest for your souls. 30 g "For My yoke is easy and My burden is light."
Then Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people.
Luke 23:5
But they were the more fierce, saying, "He stirs up the people, teaching throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee to this place.
Luke 7:18 - 35
Then the disciples of John reported to him concerning all these things.
Now when Jesus heard that John had been put in prison, He departed to Galilee.
For Herod had laid hold of John and bound him, and put him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife.
For Herod himself had sent and laid hold of John, and bound him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife; for he had married her.
Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was done by Him; and he was perplexed, because it was said by some that John had risen from the dead.

Isaiah 35:4 - 6
Say to those who are fearful-hearted, "Be strong, do not fear! Behold, your God will come with vengeance, With the recompense of God; He will come and save you.
Now when He was in Jerusalem at the Passover, during the feast, many believed in His name when they saw the signs which He did.
The poor shall eat and be satisfied; Those who seek Him will praise the LORD. Let your heart live forever!
The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon Me, Because the LORD has anointed Me To preach good tidings to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, To proclaim liberty to the captives, And the opening of the prison to those who are bound.
The Spirit of the LORD is upon Me, Because He has anointed Me To preach the gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, To proclaim liberty to the captives And recovery of sight to the blind, To set at liberty those who are oppressed.
Listen, my beloved brethren: Has God not chosen the poor of this world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom which He promised to those who love Him?
Isaiah 8:14
He will be as a sanctuary, But a stone of stumbling and a rock of offense To both the houses of Israel, As a trap and a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
And many among them shall stumble; They shall fall and be broken, Be snared and taken.
Why? Because they did not seek it by faith, but as it were, by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumbling stone.
And "A stone of stumbling And a rock of offense." They stumble, being disobedient to the word, to which they also were appointed.
When the messengers of John had departed, He began to speak to the multitudes concerning John: "What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?
That we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting.
And although he wanted to put him to death, he feared the multitude, because they counted him as a prophet.
"But if we say, 'From men,' we fear the multitude, for all count John as a prophet."
And you, child, will be called the prophet of the Highest; For you will go before the face of the Lord to prepare His ways.
"But if we say, 'From men,' all the people will stone us, for they are persuaded that John was a prophet."
Behold, I send My messenger, And he will prepare the way before Me. And the Lord, whom you seek, Will suddenly come to His temple, Even the Messenger of the covenant, In whom you delight. Behold, He is coming," Says the LORD of hosts.
Mark 1:2
As it is written in the Prophets: "Behold, I send My messenger before Your face, Who will prepare Your way before You.
The law and the prophets were until John. Since that time the kingdom of God has been preached, and everyone is pressing into it.
Malachi 4:4 - 6
Remember the Law of Moses, My servant, Which I commanded him in Horeb for all Israel, With the statutes and judgments.
Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet Before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD.
Matthew 17:10 - 13
And His disciples asked Him, saying, "Why then do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?
Mark 9:11 - 13
And they asked Him, saying, "Why do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?
"He will also go before Him in the spirit and power of Elijah, 'to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children,' and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just, to make ready a people prepared for the Lord."
And they asked him, "What then? Are you Elijah?" He said, "I am not." "Are you the Prophet?" And he answered, "No.
"He who has ears to hear, let him hear!"
"But others fell on good ground, sprang up, and...

Now it happened, as Jesus sat at the table in the house, that behold, many tax collectors and sinners came and sat down with Him and His disciples.
"But wisdom is justified by all her children."
John 2:1 - 11
On the third day there was a wedding in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there.
Luke 10:13 - 15
Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works which were done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.
And He said to them, "I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven.
Jonah 3:6 - 8
Then word came to the king of Nineveh; and he arose from his throne and laid aside his robe, covered himself with sackcloth and sat in ashes.

In that hour Jesus rejoiced in the Spirit and said, "I thank You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise and prudent and revealed them to babes. Even so, Father, for so it seemed good in Your sight.
"All things have been delivered to Me by My Father, and no one knows who the Son is except the Father, and who the Father is except the Son, and the one to whom the Son wills to reveal Him."
Out of the mouth of babes and nursing infants You have ordained strength, Because of Your enemies, That You may silence the enemy and the avenger.
For it is written: "I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, And bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.
But their minds were blinded. For until this day the same veil remains unlifted in the reading of the Old Testament, because the veil is taken away in Christ.
Jesus answered and said to him, "Blessed are you, Simon BarJonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but My Father who is in heaven.
And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, "All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth.
The Father loves the Son, and has given all things into His hand.
Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into His hands, and that He had come from God and was going to God.
For "He has put all things under His feet." But when He says "all things are put under Him, " it is evident that He who put all things under Him is excepted.
No one has seen God at any time. The only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, He has declared Him.
Not that anyone has seen the Father, except He who is from God; He has seen the Father.
As the Father knows Me, even so I know the Father; and I lay down My life for the sheep.
John 6:35 - 37
And Jesus said to them, "I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger, and he who believes in Me shall never thirst.
For I have given you an example, that you should do as I have done to you.
Ephesians 4:2
With all lowliness and gentleness, with longsuffering, bearing with one another in love.
Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus.
For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that you should follow His steps:
He who says he abides in Him ought himself also to walk just as He walked.
Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion! Shout, O daughter of Jerusalem! Behold, your King is coming to you; He is just and having salvation, Lowly and riding on a donkey, A colt, the foal of a donkey.
But made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men.
And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross.
Thus says the LORD: "Stand in the ways and see, And ask for the old paths, where the good way is, And walk in it; Then you will find rest for your souls. But they said, 'We will not walk in it.
For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome.

A new phase for professional farmer organizations: IWA29:2019 is published!
AMEA is happy to announce that after a robust and multi-stakeholder consultation process, the 29th International Workshop Agreement (IWA29:2019) – Professional Farmer Organization – Guidelines – has been published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO).
IWA29 was initiated by AMEA in 2017 and led by ISO and the Dutch Standardization Agency, NEN. Over 250 individuals representing farmer organizations and other stakeholders working in the field of agriculture (among others capacity builders, donor organizations, national governments, agribusiness and private sector companies) took part in eight regional meetings and an online commenting and consultation process to identify a set of guidelines for professional farmer organizations. The main objective of this process was to provide a common language and understanding around the core capacities of professional farmer organizations.
The Guidelines describe the main characteristics of professional farmer organizations focusing on business management and leadership skills. By implementing the guidelines, farmer organizations will be able to manage their operations more professionally and perform better over time. It is expected that better performance will eventually lead to better financial results, improved production and increased customer and member satisfaction within farmer organizations. IWA29 describes the core capacities of a professional farmer organization through six key areas: Organization Purpose and Governance, Business Management, Human Resources Management, Financial Management, Community and Stakeholder Engagement, and Member Services and Business Activities.
"We believe that the guidelines for professional farmer organisations should be accessible and used by the many parties who interact with smallholder farmers. We hope that this document will be part of a common language that is used by private companies, banks, training providers and government agencies – all of whom have economic engagements with smallholder farmers. IWA 29 is an important means to increase the number of professional farmer organization in an effective way"
Alan Johnson, Chairman of the AMEA Board
The Guidelines support the achievement of many Sustainable Development Goals, namely SDG1: No Poverty, SDG2: Zero Hunger, SDG8: Decent Work and Economic Growth, SDG12: Responsible Consumption and Production and SDG17: Partnerships for the Goals.
AMEA has developed a detailed overview of IWA 29, available here. The complete IWA 29 may be obtained through the ISO Online Browsing Platform or through your ISO National Standards Body.
Next steps: Testing and possible upgrade to a standard
After the publication of the Guidelines, AMEA's activities will include promotion of IWA29 and testing the guidelines in practice. In two to three years, participating stakeholders will be asked to make a decision on whether to embark on a journey to develop a full ISO standard from this IWA.
Please contact us at info@ameaglobal.org if you would like to know more about the Guidelines.

Public Broadcasting Service, also known as PBS, is one of the largest video platforms. Since started in the 1970s, it has been responsible for distributing popular series and television programs in America. Today, it becomes accessible through several online portals. PBS videos shared on the Internet are non-profit, which means that people can access unlimited number of entertainment contents without paying a penny. Sometimes, people want the videos on PBS to be stored on local hard drives rather than a serial of URLs, so that we can view it on digital devices without internet. Unfortunately, PBS does not support downloading. That is why we post this article: tell you how to download PBS videos efficiently.
1.	Not require installing any software on your computer.
2.	Download PBS videos simply and easily.
3.	Work in Firefox, Chrome, Internet Explorer, Safari and other web browsers.
The cost is that it usually takes much longer time to get a single video from PBS. And most online downloaders cannot deal with long videos. Though they claim to produce the best quality, the downloaded video images are usually very poor. If you do not care about the downsides, online apps are a good starting point.
QDownloader is a simple way to download PBS videos. According to our testing, the video quality downloaded by this online app is pretty good.
Step 1: When you discover the video on PBS that you want to watch later, create a new tab in your browser, and access QDownloader.net's PBS video downloader.
Step 2: Then copy and paste the link address of the PBS video into the URL box. Hit the Download button to start downloading the video.
Step 3: When prompted, download the PBS video to your computer simply.
AmoyShare is another way to download PBS videos through URL. Besides PBS, it also works on over one thousand video sharing platforms.
Step 1: Input www.amoyshare.com/free-video-downloader/ into the address bar of your browser and hit the Enter key to open the home page.
Step 2: Then find the PBS video you want to download in your browser and enter the video address into the box on the home page of the video downloader. Hit the Search icon next to the box.
Step 3: After the video is extracted from the URL, click the Download button to get the video to your hard drive.
Unlike other video downloaders online, PBS Online Downloader is able to extract all video files in the link address and you can download any one based on your requirement.
Step 1: Visit pbs.online-downloader.com in any web browser to open the home page, and then search for the PBS video to download in the browser too.
Step 2: Insert the video link into the text box and click on the Download button.
Step 3: When the result page pops up, select the proper format and resolution, and then hit the Download button to get your desired video.
1.	Download PBS videos if it is playable online.
2.	Grab and convert the PBS videos at the same time.
3.	Generate the highest video quality utilizing hardware and advanced technology.
4.	Contain a wide range of custom options related to recording, output, hotkeys and more for advanced users.
5.	Draw on the video or add text the video footages when recording PBS videos.
6.	Output PBS videos in MP4, AVI, MKV, and over a hundred video and audio formats.
7.	Preview the downloaded PBS videos before export.
In short, it is the most efficient way to download videos from PBS with the best video quality.
Get Screen Recorder installed on your computer. When you find a video or a video serial on PBS that you want to download, launch it from your desktop. Choose the Video Recorder tab on the home interface to open the best PBS video downloader.
First of all, turn on Display and change the recording area according to the PBS player by dragging the control points. Then enable System Sound and disenable Webcam and Microphone. This will only capture the PBS video images and sound. Next, press the More settings option at top right corner to open the Preferences dialog. Go to the Output tab and select a proper output format and drop a destination to save the video. Now, you can customize other options on the dialog.
After setting, click the OK button to confirm it and go back to the downloader window. Hit the REC button as soon as you play the PBS video in your browser. Then let the downloader do the job alone and when the playback is done hit the button again. Preview the downloaded video and click on the Save button if you are satisfied with it.
Note: If you have set the Duration according to the length of the PBS video, Screen Recorder will stop and activate the Preview window automatically. Plus, you can use the hotkeys to control the PBS video downloading process.
Based on our sharing above, you should understand how to download PBS videos and watch it offline at anytime and anywhere. Firstly, web-based PBS video downloaders are a portable way to get your favorite videos offline, but they are not able to grab long videos and cannot guarantee the video quality. So, we shared a professional way to download PBS videos, AnyMP4 Screen Recorder. With it, you can get any videos on PBS to be stored on your local hard drive simply. Plus, it uses advanced technology to export as the highest video quality as possible.

The Importance of Solarising Cities to Build a Secure and Sustainable Future
Cities stand as the most advanced social engineering example of human kind. They have been the very centre of development, welcoming change, offering opportunities, and spreading (social, economic, political, and now technological) growth throughout the world. Therefore, it is understandable that the first step to build the sustainable future will start from cities in our country.
A smart and solarized city reflects power for all, a better network of technologies, and free from the shroud of pollution. Since all of these reflections go well with world's environment conservation choices, solarizing cities seems the most important step to take to lay the foundation of a sustainable future.
Solving the Energy Crisis
Functional advancements that make a city smart, like- traffic systems, intelligent logistics, data security, and environmentally compatible buildings, are all connected with energy. Therefore, the only way to improve and advance a city is to change its energy usage processes.
Since conventional energy is limited, the smart energy solution to build a bigger, better, cleaner, and sustainable future has to be green energy (solar especially). With population rising (7.6 bn in 2018 globally), and most of the population is concentrated in the cities, solving energy crisis has become the most important issue to focus on, least it reaches to such level that no change can take hold permanently. Besides, cities of the world consume two-thirds of the world's energy, generating and polluting the world with 70% of the global greenhouse gases of the total generation. Therefore, reducing green gas emissions in cities have to be considered along with solving the energy crisis. And since opting to solar energy offers solution to both these issues, it is the best option to go with.
Smart Cities are The Future
Developing countries like- Middle-East, Africa are focusing on renewable energy solutions to leave the shadows of conventional energy and build a brighter future. The market size of smart cities is estimated to USD 757.74 Billion by 2020.
Preference towards better transport, saving water, and managing other resources within countries, portray smart cities as the future we dreamt of.
What Green Energy Cities Offer?
To invest in the dream of developing smart cities, we obviously need to have a clear understanding of what it can bring.
Clean Energy Generation and Consumptions: Developing countries like Philippines, Morocco, Africa, and India are still facing energy deficits, that result in power cuts. Our conventional energy dependability has not successfully offered us abundant energy till now (200 million live without electricity in India), but green energy (especially solar) promises to make up for it and more for our future. With clean energy consumption, cities will easily be able to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions. Additionally, with solar energy, cities would be able to make their own energy, reducing the real estate requirement as well.
It Infrastructure Growth: With a better energy supply, application and usage of technology in daily life would increase, thus offering better connectivity. Interconnectedness is going to be the future. However, it cannot be attained without a stable and cheap energy supply. Since fossil fuels are limited, with time their cost will rise, making running the technology too expensive. However, solar energy being renewable, will gradually become cheaper (already hit $0.05 in India), allowing innovation and 24×7 connectivity and convenience within smart cities.
Restoring the Environment: Daily CO2 emission levels (globally) have reached to 406.47 ppm (parts per million). So, only by phasing out fossil fuels and adopting green clean solar energy, world would be able to restore the environment. And turning cities into solar cities would be the best way to go about it. In 2016 global fossil fuel investment stood at $130bn, and it would considerably reduce by opting solar energy in the cities, thus saving the countries billions of dollars from conventional fossil fuel import.
India is Going Ahead
Research shows that within 2050, more than 66% of the global population will be concentrated to the cities. Therefore, development of smart cities is not only the right decision. And India is moving ahead with its own plan that aligns with this outcome.
Government of India has plans to build 109 smart cities in India. And green energy generation is one of its primary transformation components. The idea to develop smart cities is a decisive one to increase green energy generation and usage within country.
So far, Uttar Pradesh, the most populous state in the country is mandated to get 13 smart cities, while Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, and Gujarat will get 12, 10, 7, and 6 smart cities each. The Government of India has also made announcements toward offering fund worth 500 crores INR (per city) for smart city development venture.
However, the efforts have to be increased to match the rise of pollution and population. A greener, cleaner and energy rich sustainable future is at last in sight, and now India have to make an effort to reach it.

Q: Is nodejs and angularjs are related? As nodejs uses npm and angularjs cli also uses npm for modules.
Is there any relation exists between these two?
Installed node.js and tried with hello.js simply single line console.log.
Installed ng module and generated a simple angular app and started server using ng serve -o, kindly help me to clear doubt, if any relation exists between two.

A: nodeJs is for developing backend, Angular is for developing frontend
You can have a static web site written with Angular and hosting it somewhere like godaddy and that is it
If you need to show some data, interaction with database, submitting data,... then you need a backend, one of the platforms for backend is nodejs, also you can use asp.net webapi, or java or ...

A: Node and Angular are two distinct entity. In the "web world" there is two distinct things :

*

*Code running on the client side (running in your navigator), frontend, generally using Javascript/HTML/CSS . This code here is used to design your webpage and interact with the user. There is where angular/angularjs work

*Code running on server side, backend, this is where people use NodeJS. Here you find more logical code used to manage and to store the data thank to database. Here you can use node express or nestjs to create an http server using node.
Link between both ? Both can communicate using http protocole (we use the angular http client to do that). We simple ask the node server the add/update/remove/calculate data and we play with it :)

A: Angular.js is a client-side framework that runs in web browsers.
Node.js provides an environment for running JavaScript from a command line.
Angular.js is supported by a bunch of development tools (such as test HTTP servers, and transpilers to convert from TypeScript to ES5). Many of these tools run via Node.js.
You can also use Node.js for server-side programming to support the client-side code in a live environment.

Basically Green Building is a practice to create buildings by using processes that are environmentally responsible and resource-efficient throughout a building's life-cycle i.e. right from the point when the building is designed, constructed and all the way till it's demolished. This practice complements the classical building design concerns of comfort, functionality and economy. Green building also popularly known as eco-homes or sustainable building or green construction is a concept that is believed to reduce the energy bills by efficiently utilizing energy, water and other resources and thereby offering a healthier and comfortable living, along with its role in reducing waste, pollution and environmental degradation.
Green Building derives its roots from basic principles of science. The entire practices of green building along with the criteria for the selection of the appropriate building materials revolve around a few basic principles of science i.e. conduction, convection and radiation.
Green homes are really not new in an Indian context. If you look at traditional Indian designs and practices for homes, you will notice that we were extremely green in our approach and practices - we recycled almost everything, we used local materials in all our construction be it mud blocks or white wash which ensured that the carbon dioxide levels in the rooms were very low (lime is a good absorber of CO2). Similarly all our buildings were well lit and ventilated. If you look at traditional south Indian homes, the doors are aligned in a straight line from the home entrance till the back of the home to facilitate better cross ventilation. Similarly the "mutham" of our olden day architecture is nothing but an internal courtyard that brings in light into most parts of the house.
A building or home is units of many inter related parts.
Each time energy is converted from one form to other, it loses some of its potentiality. This exactly explains why the passive solar heat is much more efficient than electric heat.
One should keep in mind that the construction of a building should be customized based on the surrounding environment.
Each and every part of the building is directly or indirectly involved in controlling the movement of heat, air, and moisture.
One can enhance the energy efficiency of a building by purchasing eco friendly products.
One can significantly lower down the heating and cooling costs of a building by using passive solar design with high levels of insulation and energy-efficient windows. Such implementation of natural daylight design practices reduces a building's electricity needs, and improves people's health and productivity.
One should try to make use of low energy appliances and devices at home that produces energy efficient lighting and works on renewable energy technologies which uses solar panels and wind turbines.
One should also take care of the air leaks in the building envelope that represents a significant loss of energy and results to moisture damage inside the wall and ceiling cavities.
Green building concept has emerged from the need to meet high standards of energy efficiency and environmental responsibility. Focus is mainly on resources such as energy, water and materials and attains efficiency of these resources.The energy savings could range from 20 - 30 % and water savings around 30 - 50%.
It is said to reduce the energy bills and offer a healthier and more comfortable living environment.
Reduce the effect of environmental hazards and ease its effects on human health and environment too.
It is said that natural daylight design reduces a building's electricity needs, and improves people's health and productivity.
Passive solar design can dramatically lower down the heating and cooling costs of a building, as with high levels of insulation and energy-efficient windows.
It is generally agreed that green buildings are structures which are designed, sited, built, renovated and operated to energy-efficient guidelines, and that they will have a positive environmental, economic and social impact over their life cycle.

With 2nd Day and Next Day shipping - we can be more certain of a delivery time. Our care packages are shipped via UPS and our cakes are shipped via Fedex in insulated containers refrigerated with adequate amounts of dry ice for a respective distance.
Schedule packages to arrive early. It is nice to receive a surprise on your birthday or on the exact date of a holiday, however most people would rather receive a package a day early than a day late. Scheduling a package to arrive early allows for the unknown such as unexpected delays in transit, failed delivery because the recipient was not home, etc.

Shipping to college students: Many colleges have a mailroom that receives student packages. These mailrooms receive the package on the day you indicate you want the package to be delivered. Often the student is notified that they have a package waiting THE NEXT DAY. The student may not pick up the package until 2 DAYS AFTER it was delivered (or more). Schedule your package to arrive early. Although it's not required, it's not a bad idea to notify the student that a package is coming their way so that they can look out for a slip or email from the mailroom or inquire with the mailroom if they have not received the package. This will not spoil their surprise, but rather help to build excitement and anticipation of something coming their way. Oh yeah...and it will help to ensure that they actually receive the package.

Jalpaiguri – Bengali television actress committed suicide by hanging herself n a hotel room in West Bengal's Jalpaiguri district, police said on Thursday.
Actress Payal Chakraborty (35), a resident of Kolkata, was found hanging from a ceiling fan of her room in a hotel in Siliguri. The body was recovered at around 5 p.m on Wednesday, a police officer said.
The hotel informed us that there was no response from her room since Wednesday afternoon. "We had to break open the door of the hotel room which was locked from inside," he said.
According to the police, preliminary investigation suggests the actress committed suicide.
The actress had checked into the hotel a day earlier. She had acted in a number of Bengali television serials and movies.


It takes a certain type of driver to maneuver Sacramento roads. One must be attentive and skillful. It also takes a specific type of vehicle to successfully maneuver our roads. It should be responsive and well maintained at the very least. Despite having all these things, emergencies happen.
Emergencies on the road can take place anywhere, to anyone, at any time. Brake failure, flat tires, hydroplaning and all manner of breakdowns can cause an accident on the road. When those times occur consider some basic safety tips to prepare you.
Brake failure can definitely cause auto accidents. There are several reasons brakes can fail. If the driver has driven many miles and the breaks can get overheated. Puddles and excessively wet weather can also cause break failure. There are two breaking systems available in most passenger vehicles which California law mandates must be in working order before driving: hydraulic four wheel systems and a parking brake that is mechanically operated.
•	If total brake failure occurs try pumping the brakes first unless they are anti-lock brakes. Sometimes brake lines can become clogged and a few pumps of the brake line can break free any debris trapped inside.
•	If possible, downshift. This creates more friction on the transmission and slows the vehicle. Use the parking brake, as well. Pull the parking brake up slowly, in increments, to avoid losing control of the vehicle.
•	Warn other drivers of your plight. Honk your horn, wave out the window and flash your lights if your brakes have gone out. Warning other drivers gives them the chance to get out of your way, possibly saving lives.
Tires that just go flat while you're driving are cumbersome but not a disaster. It is an easily handled situation. A blowout, however, is a far different story. If a tire blows out, the driver is left with nothing but shredded rubber and a rim. This allows for limited or no control of the vehicle on the roadway.
Slamming on the brakes is a big no-no when dealing with a blowout. Instead, drivers should firmly grip the steering wheel and remove their foot from the gas. The brakes should be pressed slowly and cautiously to retain what control is possible.
Skidding is another road hazard that can occur in Sacramento. There are different types of skids that require different driver reactions. Acceleration skids happen when the drive wheels loose traction with the road. To maneuver out of an accelerations skid, slow down gradually without constantly tapping the brake.
Braking to hard can cause locked wheel skids. Braking hard at a high speed will often cause the wheels of a vehicle to lock up. The driver must take their foot off the brake, straighten the car and gradually reduce speed to come out of this type of skid.
Fishtailing skids happen at the rear of the car. They occur when the back tires loose traction. Drivers must turn into the curve of the skid to regain control of the car.
Power steering outages can also be a big hassle. While not completely hindering the control of the car, it does cause some problems. When the power steering pump goes out or the fluid runs out the car will still steer but making sharp turns, harrowing corners or sudden swerves will be almost impossible.
Should power steering problems occur, the best course of action is to slow down. Take turns and corners widely and slowly. Periodically have the steering components checked by a professional to avoid these types of problems.
Interstate highways and all major roads are patrolled by law enforcement regularly. Some highways also have special "call-for-help" designated telephones perched on poles at road side. Travelers with a cell phone can call right from the roadside but it is ill-advised to walk on a multi-lane highway. Conversely, if there is a source of help that can be reached on foot, it is acceptable to try the direct approach and walk but keep as far from traffic as possible.


In an amazing feat of glorious food magnitude, Coalhouse Pizza burst into life. Gerard Robertson stood behind the Coalhouse Pizza counter, huddling up with his chefs, servers, and staff. In the kitchen, in the dining room, and behind the counter plates and silverware were chiming and clinking. People started streaming in and servers quickly took orders for fun Victory Brewing Mash-Ups such as Dark Devil, Silver Back, Dark Waters, and Monkey on the Moon. We loved the Monkey on the Moon, but Sean McCain from Victory Brewing warned us to be careful because while it goes down easy due to the smooth sweetness, that bad boy is strong.
Lucky us got to sit between the awesome Alicia and Renato Ghio of rMedia/The Natural Princess fame and Ryan and Kyle of Food + Beer. And, we met the Ultimate Beerocrat, James Gribbon who seriously lays down the law with his Friday Froths on CTbites.com and met Gregg Glaser, Editor-in-Chief of the awesome Yankee Brew News. We also know Caitlin Thayer from Barefoot Media, Josh Lew, @luckycloudyrsky, Renzo Kian-Kubota from Harry's in Fairfield, Christopher Carlson co-author of Puddlejumpers, and Aaron Tubbs were there, but we're bummed we didn't get the chance to chat with them as much.
As for the dinner itself, we'll let the photos and captions below do all the talking (because it's a little weird to review our own food – lol)! We couldn't have been any happier with the results. The team at Coalhouse Pizza did our menu more justice that we could've imagined. Everything was cooked perfectly, full of delicious flavor. In fact, people seem to be begging for the pizza we had that night to be permanently on the menu! (We agree, ha!) And the service was quick and friendly too!
So of course we'd like to thank Gerard from Coalhouse Pizza. He put a lot of trust in us and when we said we wanted a bacon dinner, he let us run with it. Gerard, you're the man, a great friend, and one of the best restaurant owners that we know. Major props to Chef Eddie who worked on the menu for two days before the event and brought it all together. Also, we'd like to thank Sean McCain from Victory Brewing Company. It was great of you to stop by and share your wisdom on the beer, but also to just clang cups and enjoy some brew together. Lastly, we'd like to thank everybody who purchased tickets and dined at Coalhouse. Thanks for all the props, all the cheers, and a fun night.
Broth and clams to die for!
Bacon, bleu cheese, and beer dressing? Nuff said.
Best thing? People asking to put it on the menu. Second best? Watching people scream in pain from the habanero.
Fudgy, gooey, smoky, and oh so caramely!
Love it or hate it, the butterbeer inspired from Harry Potter!
Are you going to post the bacon brownie recipe? It sounds amazing!
