Recently, a very interesting article surfaced on the internet discussing the viewpoint that "skateboarders are good for the environment." This particular article deals with the Chicago skateboarding scene, but can easily be translated to most any other city, especially an east coast city like Philadelphia.
Let's start at the beginning, or at least the beginning for JFK Plaza in Philadelphia. The article puts forth the argument that, by waxing ledges, skateboarders aren't committing acts of vandalism, as much as they are re-purposing and communicating with one another. The suggestion is, that by waxing a ledge, skateboarders are finding more use for the object than was initially intended, and that the marks left behind by that wax tell other skateboarders that this is a place worth stopping. In the case of JFK, the first skateboarder to raise the flag was Roger Brown back around 1986. After those first shots were fired, the sessions were on, and JFK Plaza became known to skateboarders the world over as "Love Park," a name inspired by the Robert Indiana sculpture at the top of the fountain gap.
From that point on everything changed. In the article, the author discusses how the majority of the urban areas where skateboarding takes place were initially intended to serve another purpose. In some cases, they are meant as a gateway to a place of commerce, or just an urban park or place of leisure. In the case of Love, which was intended to be just a park or urban gathering space, it wound up being its own type of commerce center as well. You have to buy and sell crack somewhere right? As the skateboarders moved in, a strange sort of urban community began to develop. Love never really seemed to become the gathering place for center city businesspeople on their lunch breaks like Edmund Bacon and other city planners might have intended when the park was opened, but the tall bushes surrounding the park in the early days certainly gave the dealers and bums a place to conduct business (and fornicate). Both living in the city as sort of underground subcultures, the skateboarders, dealers, and bums managed to peacefully coexist for the most part, even having each others' backs at times.
With the success of east coast brands like Zoo York and Nicotine, Philadelphia shops like Sub-Zero, and Dan Wolf's "Eastern Exposure" videos, the skateboarding scene in Philadelphia really started to explode in the mid 90's, with Love Park as its epicenter. Unfortunately, as often happens with such things, this drew not only the attention of the skateboarding world, but the Philadelphia government as well. In 1995, enough attention had been brought to the park that Mayor Ed Rendell banned skateboarding at the park formerly known as JFK Plaza. As a sort of peace offering, the city offered up an unuesed plot of land under I-95 in south Philadelphia (another example of adaptation of urban areas by skateboarders), and built a few sad excuses for cement skate obstacles there. This eventually became the city's first skatepark, now known as FDR and, after a ton of DIY work from local skateboarders, became the skateboarding destination it is today.
Despite the ban on skateboarding at Love, the scene continued to grow. Unfortunately, as Love's popularity grew and grew, the city cracked down harder and harder. Cops on foot, bicycles, motorcycles, horseback, and even undercovers began issuing tickets of $25-$300, throwing boards in the fountain, chasing down skaters, and the stories go on and on. All of this culminated, strangely enough, with Philadelphia hosting ESPN's X Games in 2001, and even allowing a skateboard contest right across the street from Love at City Hall, which is how the curious picture above came to exist. As much as then Philadelphia Mayor John Street may have made himself appear to be a supporter of skateboarding at the time, all he really proved himself to be was a supporter of lining his and the city's pockets. Against skateboarding as he was, Street wanted to make damn sure he could be remembered to everyone (aside from every skateboarder in the world) as the mayor who brought skateboarding and the X Games to Philadelphia. (Writer's note: Suck it John Street.)
Hungry as the administration seemed to line their pockets, they refused an offer from DC Shoes of 1 million dollars to pay for maintenance at Love for ten years if the ban were to be lifted. As greedy as the Street administration may have been, they were even more close-minded and stubborn.
Even still, skateboarding lives on at Love Park to this day, and the skateboarders remain the only people to continuously use Love Park in a healthy and creative way, as evidenced in Brian Panebianco's recent video "Sabotage 3." So, even despite the efforts of the City of Philadelphia to stop it, skateboarders have, for 27 years now, managed to use Love Park, and many other areas in Philadelphia, as a canvas rather than a backdrop. I think it's safe to say skateboarders have put far more into the City of Philadelphia than they ever took from it.
As you might have guessed, we have a bit of a them going for Trivia Night at Homebase this Valentine's week, and yes, this will be on the test. See you Friday night at 8:30.

How to delete Google Chrome browsing history on Android and PC
Let's assume there's something in your search history you'd prefer others didn't see – for example, it's your girlfriend's birthday soon and you want to hide that hot air balloon ride you've been researching online from her. There's a couple of simple ways to protect or wipe your search history in Google Chrome that we'll share below. If, on the other hand, you desperately need to find the name of the hot air balloon company because you've forgotten, you can use your search history to track it down, so don't be too hasty.
View browsing history in Android
On your Android device with a new version of Chrome, viewing your search history is simple. Just open your Chrome browser, click the action overflow menu button (the three vertical dots in the top right hand corner) and select History. If your version of Chrome does not have this option, simply type chrome://history/ into the url window. You will see a list of your browsing history and have the option to search for something in particular, using the search function. To access data from long ago, scroll to the bottom and click Older.
Note: You can also access your search history via Menu > Settings > Privacy > Clear Browsing Data.
Delete search items or entire history
To delete individual websites, just click the X to the right of each entry. To delete everything, click the button at the bottom that says ''Clear browsing data...''. This will bring you to a pop-up window that lets you select the types of things you want to delete. Once you exit out of this page, you'll see the Chrome Settings. Note ''Do Not Track'' at the bottom. Make sure this is turned on. If you activate it, a request will be made to cooperating websites not to track your visits. It may not have any affect, depending on their response, but it's worth doing if it does, especially if you don't want hot air balloon ads appearing when your girlfriend borrows your phone. Finally, If you just want to stop a frequently visited site from appearing in the new window when you click New Tab, just tap and hold the item you want removed and click Remove.
Other options for privacy
Other options you have for limiting your browser history include using incognito windows. When you click the action overflow button, you'll see an option for New Incognito Tab. When you're in an incognito tab, your search activity will not appear in your search or browser history, making it the perfect way to preemptively search for birthday presents. There's also plenty of other alternatives for private browsers beyond Chrome (like InBrowser, Duck Duck Go etc) as well as private search engines like Startpage.com. Messenger apps like Telegram, BBM and Silent Circle are all worth a look for your instant messaging privacy needs.
As an added bonus, here's the same clearing information for your web-based version of Chrome.
Clear browsing history
This is the easiest of the things to do. Simply open the Chrome browser, click the three horizontal bars in the top right hand corner of the screen (1) and select History (2). This will open up your browsing history, listing dates, times and urls you have visited. To delete everything, click ''Clear browsing data...'' (3).
Delete one item only
Just click on the drop-down arrow box on the right of the entry you wish to delete, it will give you the option to access more information about that particular site (eg, when you have visited it) or simply to remove it from your history. Alternatively, you can hover your mouse to the left of the entry, just next to the time and a small check box will appear (1). Just click this and then ''Remove selected items'' at the top (2).
Delete several items
To delete several items, simply check the boxes as mentioned above for the entries you want to delete, and then click ''Clear selected items'''.
Delete all items
Easy, just click ''Clear browsing data...'' at the top and make your selection of the types of data you would like to delete. Make sure you click the drop-down box at the top to determine the period of time you wish to clear: from the past hour to the beginning of time.
Do you manage your search history in Chrome? Do you know of any other good tricks to keep your data safe?

WASHINGTON — With all the anxiety in the world, how is anyone supposed to relax?
A new line of drinks are promising to help people do just that.
With names like Marley's Mellow Mood and Just Chill, they're being marketed as a less extreme measure than taking prescription drugs or drinking alcohol to take the edge off, according to The Wall Street Journal.
Small studies show that some of the ingredients in the relaxation drinks, such as melatonin, valerian root and L-theanine, can help fight things like sleeplessness. Also, they can "create a sensation of relaxation in isolated situations," according to The Wall Street Journal.
Clinicians, however, say that supplements or drugs should be a last resort to reduce anxiety. Exercise, a consistent schedule and therapy are preferred methods, according to the Journal.
The FDA isn't really keeping tabs on the drinks because the ingredients aren't "drugs," according to the report.
"They're not watching for efficacy or the quantity of ingredients in each bottle, or safety," says the Wall Street Journal's Sarah Nassauer.
And they're on the store shelf, next to the soda cans, where kids can get their hands on them.
They run about $2.40 for a can or bottle of Just Chill or Neuro Bliss and while their ingredients read like that of green tea, some contain melatonin.
Nassaeur says, "It's still a little unclear how effective some of these are."

Mad Fox Brewing Company Honors Scotland's Favorite Son, Poet Robbie Burns, with January 25 Dinner
FALLS CHURCH, VA – Holiday withdrawal never dampens the spirits of the award-winning Mad Fox Brewing Company, known in Northern Virginia for their unique house-crafted brew, pub experience. They've created their very own Robbie Burns Night, a celebration of the life and poetry of Robbie Burns, Scotland's Favorite Poet, with a five-course beer dinner on the 253rd anniversary of his birth, January 25, 2012.
The "Robbie Burns Dinner" is Mad Fox's unique take on this global tradition. Guests can expect a delightful meal created by Executive Chef Russel Cunningham and masterfully accompanied by some of the country's best craft-brewed beer. The meal is an interpretation of traditional Scottish cuisine with a modern twist – an appetizer of haggis with a potato and parsnip puree, followed by Scottish salmon or "Loch Duart," a fried prosciutto and stilton salad, grilled leg of lamb, and finished with chocolate crannachan (bittersweet chocolate and cream layered with Scottish oats and drizzled with whiskied honey). A bagpiper will provide the perfect dash of ambiance to this savory meal.
Because Mad Fox is known for their award-winning libations, each course of this meal includes an original drink-pairing. In order of appearance, Mad Fox has cast their Cask "80 Shilling Scottish Ale, the farm-house style Saison, the citrusy Orange Whip IPA, "100 Batch" Black Ale and Wee Heavy, a strong Scotch ale, as the featured drink roles for the Burns Dinner.
Burns, also known as "The Bard," is best known for his poetic song Auld Lang Syne, the popular tune played annually at New Year's celebrations. An early pioneer of the Romantic Movement, his poetry and lyrics gave him wide renown as the national poet of Scotland. Following his death in 1796, Burns' friends began honoring his passing every year with a traditional Scottish meal including haggis, Scotch whisky and the reciting of Burns' poetry. The Burns Supper was born from this, and is now celebrated by Scottish societies and organizations around the world, generally around the time of the poet's birthday.
The Robbie Burns Dinner is $65 per person, all inclusive. To reserve your party, please visit or contact Mad Fox Brewing Company at email@example.com or call 703.942.6840. The restaurant is centrally located between the East Falls Church and West Falls Church Metro Stations and offers plenty of free parking in the back lot or parking facility.
Located in the City of Falls Church at 444 West Broad Street, the Mad Fox Brewing Company brews all their beer in-house in their 15-barrel Premier Stainless brewing system, with CEO and Executive Brewer Bill Madden supervising the production. In 2011, two Mad Fox brews brought home medals at the Great American Beer Festival in Denver. In addition to the seven to ten beers on tap, Mad Fox rotates a seasonal selection of German, English, Belgian and American beers.

Comments On Sep 05, 2013:Where the brake hose clamp is supposed to go the brake line is wider than the stock one so securing it isn't as straight forward. I also didn't notice any performance difference between this line and my 8 year old stock rubber line like I was expecting. My stock one started leaking so I didn't buy it purely for performance, but still, I thought I would get some. Also, this is a Galfer like re-branded as Tusk. You can see that is says Galfer through a piece of rubber they tried to cover it up with.

Eat fish
If reports of high mercury levels have you skipping seafood, it's time to reconsider. Fish have essential fats called omega-3 fatty acids, which your body needs for optimal fertility – and seafood is the best source.
Omega-3s are important for a baby's brain and eye development and have many other pregnancy-related benefits, including lowering your risk of preterm birth, reducing your chance of preeclampsia, and easing depression. It's important to get omega-3 fatty acids from food because your body doesn't make them.
Omega-3 fatty acids can be found in a variety of marine- and plant-based sources. Just remember that the omega-3s in seafood have long-chain fatty acids that plant-based omega-3s (like walnuts and flaxseed) don't. To get the most out of omega-3s, eat cold water fatty fish like salmon, tuna, sardines, or herring a couple of times a week.
Still, it's hard not to worry about mercury contamination in fish. Mercury is toxic to a developing fetus and can linger in a woman's bloodstream for more than a year.
The good news is that not all fish contain the same amount of mercury. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) says that women trying to conceive can safely eat up to 12 ounces (roughly two entrées) a week of low-mercury fish, such as shrimp, canned light tuna, salmon, or catfish.
The FDA advises avoiding canned albacore (white) tuna as well as fresh or frozen swordfish, tilefish, king mackerel, tuna steaks, shark, orange roughy, Spanish mackerel, marlin, and grouper because they have the highest mercury levels.
Check out our article on fish safety for more advice on finding your way through the mercury maze.
If you don't like the taste of fish, try fish oil supplements. But be sure to talk to your healthcare provider first to find out how much you need to take.
Pump up on iron
Fill your body's iron reserves before you get pregnant, especially if your periods are particularly heavy, says Sam Thatcher, a reproductive endocrinologist at the Center for Applied Reproductive Science in Johnson City, Tennessee, and author of Making a Baby: Everything You Need to Know to Get Pregnant. "Bleeding every month is a constant source of iron depletion," Thatcher says.
Load up now, because once you're expecting, your body has difficulty maintaining its iron stores as your baby siphons the mineral from you. To make matters worse, too little iron at the start of pregnancy puts you at risk for postpartum anemia — a condition affecting new moms that causes your red blood cells to fall below normal and saps your energy level.
If you don't eat much red meat or you follow a vegetarian or vegan diet, take a multivitamin with iron. And, to be on the safe side, ask your healthcare provider to test your blood for anemia at your preconception checkup.

Symantec Enterprise Firewall (SEF) SMTP Proxy Inconsistencies
Corsaire Limited has discovered two low-risk issues with Symantec
Enterprise Firewall. The first is a potential information leak in the
Symantec Enterprise Firewall Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) proxy
environment that could provide inappropriate information on the firewall
configuration. The second is that inconsistencies in the SMTP protocol
exchange could cause a connection to be denied.
Vulnerable systems:
Symantec Enterprise Firewall versions 6.5.x and 7.0
Corsaire Limited notified Symantec Corporation of some issues in the way
the Symantec Enterprise Firewall SMTP proxy worked with network address
translation (NAT). These issues could cause some undesirable results.
Symantec Enterprise Firewall uses application proxies to provide enhanced
security. Uses of this feature include restricting the sender/recipient
domains and hiding internal infrastructure information from external
users. Corsaire Limited discovered that when Symantec Enterprise Firewall
is configured to provide NAT to an SMTP connection, the function to hide
the internal server address by mapping it to an external public address is
not performed in a completely desirable manner.
The Symantec Enterprise Firewall SMTP proxy should analyze the SMTP format
and dynamically change the IP address as well as edit the required IP
header. Corsaire Limited's research demonstrated that when the inbound or
outbound SMTP connection was translated to an address other than the
address assigned to the physical firewall interface, the SMTP proxy
continued to use the name and address of the physical interface in the
SMTP protocol exchange.
There are two low-risk issues with the way Symantec Enterprise Firewall is
handling the SMTP proxy interface. First, there is a potential information
leak. Information is included in the SMTP protocol exchange that possibly
could aid a malicious intruder in analyzing the firewall configuration.
Second, a receiving/transmitting host that is configured to enforce strict
checks on the SMTP protocol exchange may not accept the connection due to
inconsistencies in the field. This could result in the non-delivery or
bouncing of mail messages.
Vendor response:
Symantec has verified the issues discovered by Corsaire Limited and
developed a fix that will be included with the near-future release of
Symantec Enterprise Firewall version 8.0. Until then, use the following
workarounds to address these issues:
* Configure Symantec Enterprise Firewall to use the same name for the
firewall name and the firewall external interface name. This workaround
results in consistent names for SMTP replies.
* If NAT is not needed, use the SMTP wizard included with Symantec
Enterprise Firewall to set up rules and redirects for all inbound and
outbound SMTP traffic.

No, dental bridges will not create problems while eating. On the contrary, they will make eating a smooth process by eliminating the chances of food getting stuck in the decayed teeth or your gums hurting while having certain foods. You will actually be able to chew your food properly once again!
Initially after getting the artificial teeth you will experience some uneasiness while chewing, but over time you will start getting used to eating with them.
However, refrain from having eatables that are extremely hard, hot, or cold.
When will I have to Replace them?
Your dental bridge will not require replacing for at least 10 to 15 years, provided you are ready to spend some time following proper oral care and hygiene. To ensure the longevity of your artificial and remaining original teeth and the protection of your gums against diseases, it is imperative for you to maintain a strict routine of brushing, flossing, and consuming nutritional foods.
Remember to see your dentist to check the state of your oral health and to get professional cleaning done from time to time.
Whether it is dental implants, crowns, bridges or fixed partial dentures in Costa Rica, overseas patients can get quality treatment as well as spend some time winding down in the beautiful tropical environment, more so with the money saved on the procedure.
Get ready to reclaim your smile without exhausting your resources with affordable dental bridges in San Jose.

30 Jul 2009, Joel Clark, Risk magazine
On July 29, Spanish bank Grupo Santander reported Q2 profits of €2.42 billion, up marginally from €2.1 billion in Q1, with provisioning also increasing from €2.21 billion in Q1 to €2.42 billion in Q2. The bank has seen a rise in non-performing loans during the first half of 2009, nearly doubling on the same period last year from €2.71 billion to €4.73 billion.
Rival Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria (BBVA) also saw a rise both in domestic and international non-performing loans, but cut its provisions from €104 million in Q1 to €48 million in Q2. BBVA reported quarterly profits of €1.56 billion on July 28, up from €1.24 billion in Q1.
Deutsche Bank also reported on July 28, announcing profits of €1.07 billion in Q2, down marginally from €1.18 billion in Q1 but up from €645 million in Q2 2008. The modest performance was partly due to increased provision for credit losses, which nearly doubled from €526 million in Q1 to €1 billion in Q2, eating significantly into the bank's profits.
Credit Suisse reported a Q2 profit of Sfr1.55 billion ($1.42 billion) on July 23, up from Sfr554 million in Q1. Its provisions have also climbed, from Sfr183 million in Q1 to Sfr310 million in Q2.
Despite modest quarterly profits at most US and European banks, Morgan Stanley bucked the trend and reported a $159 million loss on July 22 – its third consecutive quarterly loss.
More quarterly results are due next week, with UBS and BNP Paribas on August 4, Société Générale and Lloyds Banking Group on August 5 and the Royal Bank of Scotland on August 7.See also: Trading and one-off gains lift bank profits

I suspected Mike was a strong creative force behind AVGN. These guys deserve recognition. They could be the next Trey Parker & Matt Stone…fsxman

Someone actually asked,"Did you play any other karate kid video game? " What? Really!tatripp
June 21, 2012 at 2:45 am
effffff…a stupid java update from my toolbar came up when the video was fullscreen and i closed the update which left the toolbar up for some reason. After I went back to the normal sized screen the video wouldn't play so now i have to watch the advertisement again. You should do the next "you know what's bulls**t" on stupid java and adobe updates.vicky515
June 21, 2012 at 2:52 am
It really annoys me when people ask questions at conventions that they would have known the answer to if they had actually watched or read more of said person's work. It's a waste of a question for those of us who actually have real questions
June 21, 2012 at 2:57 am

June 21, 2012 at 5:47 am
Really awesome video, especially the story behind the AVGN. While watching this video I've got an idea – maybe you can make documentary about AVGN? You know, interesting stories, you guys speaking, some footage (for example original recording of the theme song), some people reactions, reasons for choosing games, interesting trivia… The list can go on and on.
Anyway, thanks for all the hard work from both of you guys!dennidude

Oh man you guys had some awesome questions/comments at the panel! James you're quite the hero to the one kid who doesn't have to cry himself to sleep anymore! You and Mike and the crew were all really cool and very gracious with your time. I worked the door to the panel and didn't have time to stand in line at your booth, but I managed to get Karate Kid signed outside when you guys were heading out. Thanks again for the great show guys!safetydancer
June 22, 2012 at 2:19 am
Mike, it's right here. It's in no way as big as last year when the gang discussed the Nerd, but it's still a namedrop by an interviewee on the friggin' Stern show:Pompkinini
June 23, 2012 at 1:41 pm
You guys rock. Can't wait to see another AVGN episode in the future. Also, I think Mike is doing a really good job holding the fort while James is tied up with the movie. I always like to watch a Cinemassacre video late at night before bed. Keep the content coming Mike.angie
June 24, 2012 at 9:13 am
Got a message from my friend saying he found me in this video with James. Came here to check it out… and I'm in the thumbnail too! Haha. Thanks guys, made my dayBen_from_G-town

Wow, that was a great panel. I love hearing behind the scenes stories. The fans asked some good questions, as well. Good to hear there are 9 more Bullshit episodes in the can (d-dnn-TSS!). I can't wait for the movie. I hope it's done soon, and I wouldn't mind some more updates, as well.Entrenaturaleza
June 26, 2012 at 8:20 am
Excellent document, you two guys are becoming more and more comfortable with conventions and everyone can see ,i celebrate, you are demi-gods!Jake-hill

James! You talked about your Dad playing 2 Nintendo games and was pretty good, for fun, has he ever beat Top Gun? (my cousin's dad was like that, only he played Jack Nicklaus Golf and Black Bass, sheesh.) Funny he was sort of a little menace as a kid. But one day for a birthday he saved allowance money to buy his Dad an NES game. Oblivious to it's crappiness, turned out to be Dr.Jekyll and Mr.Hyde. Happy Shitday, Dad. Hah.

As a Mars satellite tracks the evolution of a regional dust storm, NASA's rovers experience local weather changes.
A NASA spacecraft is keeping tabs on a vast dust storm on Mars that has spawned changes in the Martian atmosphere felt by two rovers on the planet's surface.
The Martian dust storm was first spotted by NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) on Nov. 10 and has been tracked ever since. The agency's Mars rover Opportunity has seen a slight drop in atmospheric clarity due to the storm. Meanwhile the newer Curiosity rover -- which has a built-in weather station -- has seen a drop in air pressure and slightly increased nighttime temperatures halfway around the planet from Opportunity, NASA officials said.
"This is now a regional dust storm," Rich Zurek, NASA's chief Mars scientist at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., said in a statement Wednesday (Nov. 21). "It has covered a fairly extensive region with its dust haze and it is in a part of the planet were some regional storms have grown into global dust hazes."
NASA is combining observations by the Curiosity rover and MRO to create a complete picture of the Martian dust storm. The Spain-built Rover Environmental Monitoring Station on Curiosity gives scientists a real-time look at conditions over the rover's position inside Gale Crater.
The Mars Color Imager on MRO was built by Malin Space Science Systems in San Diego. It was Malin's Bruce Cantor who first spotted the storm in photos from the powerful Mars camera on Nov. 10.
"For the first time since the Viking missions of the 1970s, we are studying a regional dust storm both from orbit and with a weather station on the surface," Zurek said.
Because the dust from the current storm is absorbing sunlight instead of reflecting it, a warming effect 16 miles (25 kilometers) above the Martian tempest has been seen by MRO. The effect, first recorded by MRO's Mars Climate Sounder on Nov. 16, has led to a temperature increase of 45 degrees Fahrenheit (25 degrees Celsius) so far.

Commonwealth – Wiggling Into Multiple MealtimesFriday, April 18th, 2014
Location: Cambridge, MA
The Foodie: Recommends
Restaurants usually come to occupy a certain space within ourselves – we file the place away in our gullet and food funnels within our brain (yes, that is a term from the field of neuroscience). You know, there is that part of us that wants:
…this type of food
…at that time of day
…with those people
…and for that price tag.
Let me illustrate.
- Olecito: A quick meal when I have cash in my pocket, a long ride ahead of me, and a hankering for pork and spices on my tongue.
- Bronwyn: Beers and pretzels with friends any night, weekend dinner with anyone, or the Bronburger…alone.
- A4: Friday night dinner, good red wine and a movie with me'lady – meow.
- Ribelle: When I know my schedule 3 weeks ahead of time, I want to be guaranteed a memorable meal, and I just got paid a boatload of $$$
- Simon's: Triple medium cubano latte. Every single Friday.
Commonwealth is starting to wiggle its way into my subconscious in a way that has them coming top of mind at multiple mealtimes.
For example:
Sunday Brunch: With a spacious, chill, sunny vibe and a wicked fun menu filled with sinful fat-laden things and good coffee – there is not much more to think about when considering Commonwealth for an 11:30am double meal.
ORDER THIS: "Ginormous Sticky Bun with Crispy Bacon" – Serves 4, but can easily be eaten by a single hung-over glutton.
ORDER THIS: "The Dirty Jersey" – Yeah, it's a ham, egg, 'n cheese sandwich…but on steroids. Super delicate bun, baller ham, gooey egg, and pimpin' queso. Homefries on the side are actually amazing.
Weekday Lunch: Starting at about 12:15 every weekday, a small army of tech geeks, high-powered consultants, pharma phriends, and INTP software engineers descend upon the luncheonettes and café cars of Kendall Square for their midday intake. Without disclosing which one of those suspects I am, I have found myself flocking here with the rest of the crowd for some lunching.
ORDER THIS: "Pork Belly Banh Mi" – A respectable take on the epic BLT sandwich from the East.
Oh, and I'll have you know that I do eat my veggies in addition to large quantities of pig and carbs.
That's right folks – Commonwealth has just the thing for you on that front too. Think spinach and strawberry salad, lush green salad with watermelon radish, asparagus and faro, and a beet/goat cheese salad with pistachio pesto and dill. Bounty of the earth.
Randomly, they also have an insanely good oatmeal raisin cookie. So they also occupy the "snack time" part of my brain too.
So – if you have empty spaces in your meal schedule – I'd recommend you hit up Commonwealth, stat.
Pennypackers Porchetta Is Pure Poetry. Period.Tuesday, December 24th, 2013
Location: Somerville, MA, Design Center (Boston Seaport), and Roaming Elsewhere
The Foodie: Strongly Recommends
Following-up my last post on large quantities of meat between two slices of bread, I bring you Pennypackers, home of the best sandwich I've eaten around Boston all f*ing year.
A few definitions here to get you started:
Pennypackers: An establishment committed to bringing you mostly sandwiches through a variety of delivery mechanisms:
- A perma-truck stationed at the Design Center at the Xsection of Tide St. and Northern Ave. in South Boston (seaport area). Open M-F 10:30 – 3PM.
- A roaming truck that serves other parts of Boston – maybe even your neighborhood street corner.
- A brick-and-mortar locale in Magoun Sq. Somerville with a few tables and a large ass kitchen.
Porchetta: An Italian culinary tradition, porchetta is a skin-on slab of pork belly wrapped around a trimmed center-cut pork loin and seasoned with herbs, fennel, and citrus. Done properly, the process of creating this masterpiece is a time-consuming endeavor that requires primary assembly before resting 1-2 days in a fridge, and then slow-roasting in the oven. So good I plan to name my first-born child after it.
Now, let me describe to you the combination of both items described above. What you read below is not a poem, it is just centered for emphasis. The poetry is all in the food my friends.
Pennypackers served you a Porchetta sandwich in Magoun Square.
It cost you $8.
Though Penny packs different accouterments around their porchetta-wich from time-to-time, this beast of a sandwich was served to YOU between two super-soft slices of soft Italian ciabatta-style bread. You had yours with pickled fennel.
The look on your face during the first oral encounter with this sandwich must have been comparable to the heroin addict's expression after shooting up that next dose.
[Eyes rolling back into their sockets, mouth agape, body slouching back]
You continue to devour the sandwich, finding all sorts of treasures buried between the ciabatta and fennel: succulent morsels of melt-in-your mouth seasoned pork meat, crunchy bits of pork skin, and the odd chunk of delightful pork fat.
Soon you are finished. It feels sad. You promise yourself that you will return.
You salute the chefs and wish them well in their endeavors.
Walking out the door, you told yourself this was the best sandwich you'd eaten around Boston all year. You were right.
Amsterdam Falafel Shop – A Red Light District for ChickpeasSunday, December 16th, 2012
Location: Somerville, MA
The Foodie Says: Cosi-Cosi
Anyone who has been to Amsterdam and ventured outside the famed red light district will tell you that there is much more to this beautiful city than x-rated window shopping…great food, a beautiful riverboat tour, one of the skinniest buildings in the world, and lots of Van Gogh (best enjoyed after a few space cakes).
Similarly, there is much more to the world of falafel than Amsterdam Falafel Shop – but for an area starved for good fried chickpeas it's a start.
AFS is a falafel shop with roots in Washington, DC that has decided to branch out and open a shop in the area where most future presidents get their Harvard degree and where most future diplomats pick up a few classes at the Fletcher School. Might as well feed your future leaders well as they feed their brains, right?
Here's how the assembly-line format at AFS works:
- Order your falafel sandwich or falafel plate
- Load up on a wide assortment of toppings that include: pickled everything, cucumber + tomato, tahini, cabbage, hummus, yogurt sauce, spicy red stuff, etc.
- Devour
The falafel sandwich is pretty good, but I've had much better elsewhere. I take issue with the hard, crunchy, and slightly dry variety they are serving here. The toppings really save the day along with the pillow-soft pitas that they serve the falafel with. But the main event is a bit lackluster.
Amsterdam also boasts fries with a variety of interesting dipping sauces. Again, the fries are seriously lacking but are saved by an especially good curried ketchup dipping sauce.
So it appears a trend is surfacing here – AFS dresses-up their fare pretty well but misses the mark on the main events.
Like a tourist making a beeline for the red light district, AFS needs a better map of falafelville. But until better eats in this genre hit the area, I'm sticking with my Chickpea Fritter from Clover Food Lab.
Sofra – A Slice of the Middle East in Eastern MassSunday, February 26th, 2012
Location: Cambridge, MA
The Foodie: Recommends
In a court of food, a raw-yer (get it?) could argue that Ana Sortun is the chef to most successfully bring Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisine to Eastern Massachusetts and the North Atlantic.
So a few years ago when I discovered she had opened a bakery and café in a remote corner of Cambridge to build off the success of Oleana I was particularly jazzed.
I've been over here several times and never left disappointed – they manage to squeeze fistfuls of culinary delights into a small space. Think amazing falafel and shawarma, a slew of baked goods, spices for purchase, and even fresh eggs (presumably from the farm that Sortun and family runs).
A recent trip here brought joy upon joy in the form of Turkish coffee, a little sausage and broccoli rabe sandwich, a nice quiche-like pastry and the ever-famous egg shakshouka (find out about that one on your own).
Sortun offers you all this and more in a well-designed (yet tiny) space. Sofra is best enjoyed in the following formats:
- Order a sandwich for take-out. Sip a Turkish coffee while you wait.
- Bring a slew of pastries home to gorge upon
- Come with a small crew and hover over people to grab a seat for weekend breakfast
- Experience Sofra in warmer weather and chill in a small space for outdoor seating
In any form of edible excursion here however – you will be found guilty of gluttony.
Eat on,
Nick the Foodie.
2nd Street Cafe – Nostalgia, Grinder Monologues, and Secret Food TracksSaturday, February 18th, 2012
Location: Cambridge, MA
The Foodie: Recommends
Long live the neighborhood restaurant.
Remember when it all had that home cooked feel to it?
Remember when they used to whip up specials based on the inspiration of the day?
Remember when you could walk in and say "the usual?"
Remember when you could say "hook me up with something special" and they'd throw a dish together for you on a whim?
Remember that thing called service? Sure, I know that between healthcare, the airlines, and Comcast, we've nearly forgotten the meaning of the word.
Here at 2nd Street Anthony and his team are keepin' the dream alive by feeding all locals within a 10 block radius for breakfast and lunch M-F with a stellar lineup of fresh sammies and daily specials to boot.
Think grilled chicken with pesto, tomato and fresh mozz; a grilled cubano complete with roast pork loin, ham, swiss, and all the trimmings; curried chicken salad, and my personal favorite: MOM'S MEATBALL GRINDER.
[Cue Brief Grinder Monologue] – Wow. Holy shit. This hoagie is one of those "available 'till it runs out type deals"…a marvelous combination of tender-as-hell meatballs in a light airy tomato sauce and loads of melted provolone. Wrapped up in tinfoil you joyfully cling to it on the walk back to your officle and then silently devour it accepting no corporate fire drill as a legitimate-enough emergency to break the deliciousness of each passing moment. See below:
We're back. Sorry about that. I get a little heated every time the grinder comes up. Back to good food and service. The bottom line of it is that if you work within the reach of 2nd Street be sure to escape from the daily grind with a friendly grinder from the kind folks here.
Secret Food Track:
Remember Green Day? Remember Dookie? Remember how your level of cool was defined by your knowledge of the secret track? Here at Nick the Foodie, we remember, and we're hitting you with a bonus track in case you missed the hip boat in 7th Grade.
I received a personalized cooking lesson from Anthony, the culinary mastermind behind the 2nd Street operation. He spent a good solid afternoon teaching me some killer technique in the kitchen and led our service of 20 ravenous other foodies with an orgasmic menu consisting of the following:
- Carbonnade a la Flamande (an amazing braised beef stew) with Chimay and Short Rib
- Baked squash rounds with triple crème brie, caramelized onions and chiffonade of sage
- Grill-toasted baguette with prosciutto and fig preserve
- Grilled squid salad with spicy vinaigrette
- Grilled asparagus and mashies
Anthony is a good chum and real professional gent to work beside in the kitchen. I learned a ton from him and his background and can say with insider knowledge that the man behind the magic at 2nd Street is going to treat you right.
Long live the neighborhood restaurant and the good people keeping them alive.
Darwins – Survival of the TastiestSunday, November 13th, 2011
Location: Cambridge, MA
The Foodie: Recommends
Sandwich shops are like mammals – you either eat, or you get eaten.
…and Darwins has been high up on the food chain for several years now feeding much of Cambridge during breakfast and lunch hours. They're pimpin' some great sammies coined and inspired by local streets and squares, such as:
- The Inman (Burritos Eggis) – Breakfast Burrito. You know, beans, eggs, salsa…if that carnitas roll-up wasn't enough for you the night before – this guy will satisfy your craving.
- The Felton (yuppieus sammicha) – Eggs scrambled, spinach, swiss, bacon. A delightfully sinful and refined breakfast creation.
- The Irving (Genus pastramius) – Slaw, Swiss, Russian dressing, and pastrami. A hearty handful of pleasure.
Beyond some of these reg'lar menu items, I like bringing in the hand of Foodie to craft wild beasts of my own. The favorite being my breakfast sandwich, which I'd lobby for Darwin's to call Foodie Street:
- Ham, eggs, grilled asparagus and melted havarti on sourdough (grandus bellyus)
Plus, they're always bringing in some daily specials that'll blow your mind more than Animal Planet. So if you're looking for the cromagnon warrior of sandwich shops in the Cambridge area, hit Darwins to experience food evolution.
Hi Rise Bread Company – The Sun Also Rises on Mass AveWednesday, October 19th, 2011
Location: Cambridge, MA
The Foodie: Recommends
In a few words: Hi-Rise takes on the café thang with legit coffee at a new location
Oh it's on Starbucks.
The makers of Boston's best baguette, slammin' challah, bomb brioche and baller sandwiches have decided to add espresso to their resumé.
After shutting the doors on their Harvard location (was never a huge fan of that one anyway), Hi-Rise has set up shop in a new 'hood with a different formula than their Concord Ave digs. Here, they're focusing more on espresso drinks and a chill café vibe.
Some things you'll notice that are different than the Huron Village operation:
- Fewer Sandwiches. Though I was slightly bummed not to see my "Andi's Loose Knit Crew" sammich here, I was quite pleased with my grilled chicken cubano (ham, pickles, cheese, and special sauce on Concord). They've brought over some of the killer breakfast sandwiches to this locale as well (like the Hi-Riser). Finally, my eyes also lit up with intrigue at a gourmet bahn-mi inspired creation that includes paté, ham, veggies, and sauce. Can't wait to sample that one.
- Very respectable espresso drinks. La Marzocco espresso machine? Check. Good beans? Check. Hipster indie-styled baristas? Check. Good latte? Check. The technique behind the coffee bar here is pretty amazing and Hi-Rise is bringing in the big guns of local roasters with excellent stuff from Barismo right in nearby Arlington. I'd definitely put the coffee here somewhere around Crema and Bloc 11 based on quality.
- Fewer fresh-baked goods. You'll still be able to buy one of those orgasmic baguettes here and a variety of other loaves but don't expect to find all the same stuff as the Hi Rise original.
- Little more space. If you've been squeezed into the corner of a colonial-era room at the Harvard location, or basically sat on someone's lap at the huge communal table at the Concord Ave spot, you may be pleased by the outdoor seating, standing room bar-style eating at the windows, and cozy café nook area to post up with your laptop for a few hours.
In the end I'm pumped to have these guys in the area given I don't make it out to Huron Village as much as I'd like. I think what I'm going to do is hit Hi-Rise Mass Ave up for breakfast/brew, but still frequent the flagship locale when I'm on the lookout for stuff like a brioche and to-die-for sammies. I suggest you do the same, dear reader.
In the meantime, Starbucks will definitely feel the heat from another local café that makes better coffee than they do. Anti-corporate coffee types out there, take joy.
Clover Food Lab – A Brave New LunchSunday, July 31st, 2011
Location: Cambridge, MA
The Foodie: Recommends
The Clover Lab serves food from the future.
Enter a white modern space. If you thought this was the type of spot where you just walk up to a counter and place your order you were wrong bee-atch.
A futuristic server with an iPhone greets you in front of a plasma-menu and asks if you've been there before. You say no, and she giggles. You then banter and joke around about what the best menu items are before settling on the Chickpea Fritter, rosemary fries and a cool rhubarb drink.
Your order is taken via Apple genius and beamed over to the kitchen. Your receipt is emailed to your gmail account. You're then told to hang out and wait for each piece of your order to appear on the counters in front of you. Very exciting.
You'll find the fritter delightful (recommend adding a little hot pepper from the condiment station), and the rosemary fries cooked to perfection and packed with whole mini-spears of fried rosemary sprinkled throughout. Amazing. You'll think: Did I just eat vegetarian? Can't be…
You will leave wanting to come back and try the BBQ Seitan and a fresh beer as you step back out into 2011.
Thanks for showing us what it will be like Clover. Can I join the occult via iPhone as well? Where do I download the app? Thanks.

Peanut The Turtle
Peanut, a red-eared slider turtle, is Missouri's No MOre Trash! mascot. She was found with a discarded plastic six-pack holder around her shell when she was young and small. The piece of litter had been around her shell for about four years and her shell had grown around it. The plastic was removed and Peanut is doing well. Most animals are not so lucky when it comes to litter. Learn more at http://www.nomoretrash.org/

'Heaven is for Real' Helps Us Explore the Afterlife
Did "Heaven is for Real" mirror the best-selling book on Colton Burpo's trip to heaven when he was four-years-old or was it strictly through a Hollywood lens?
Did "Heaven is for Real" mirror the best-selling book on Colton Burpo's trip to heaven when he was four-years-old or was it strictly through a Hollywood lens?
Critics argued that the theme of the film was taken from a Universalist approach, not a Christian standpoint. In the book written by Colton's father Todd Burpo, the boy was very concerned that people might die without knowing Jesus, which was not in the movie. Some said the film did not clarify enough that Jesus Christ is the only way to heaven. I can agree to certain point, but this is entertainment, not a documentary, so call me a positive Polly.
If you see a movie that comes from Hollywood, there will be creative licenses taken. With that out of the way, let's all calm down. Depending where you are in your walk, the film offers some solace, especially to those who are grieving
Director and co-writer Randall Wallace admitted that they omitted sections of the book like the angels, or hell. But he did not feel they purposely left out Jesus as some concluded.
"We end the movie with a picture of Jesus that he [Colton] saw," said Wallace, who attended seminary. "The last image of this movie is a picture of Jesus, so I never felt that we were leaving Jesus out."
Colton, played by newcomer Conner Corum is joined by Greg Kinnear (Todd Burpo), Kelly Reilly (Sonja Burpo), and Thomas Hayden Church (Jay Wilkins) add a quiet power to the cast..
"I think it's a very hopeful story," said Greg Kinnear, who played Todd and worked with Wallace in "We Were Soldiers."
"I think the notion that God makes the rules is the underlying theme of this thing. It's a very surprising set of circumstances that take place and I felt like the message that it doesn't get bogged down with is What does heaven look like?, Was it real, or not real?, What color was it?"
Kinnear said regardless of where a person's faith is—to have a front row seat to the Burpo's journey is an experience.
