Battle of the Microbrews
We pit ten Maine beers against each other in a blind taste test to determine the tops in hops.
When the microbrew revolution started to rear its lovely, foamy head on the West coast in the early1980s, it didn't take long for the trend of localized, small-batch brews to make its way east. The D. L. Geary Brewing Company was incorporated in 1983 in Portland. 1988 saw Gritty McDuff's become Maine's first brewpub since Prohibition. And at the turn of the millennium, the Shipyard Brewery produced and distributed more than 30,000 barrels of genuine Maine-made beer throughout the country and beyond.
The Tasters
Steve Corry is the chef/co-owner of one of Portland's most respected new restaurants, the two-year-old Five Fifty-Five. As if being one of the best cooks in the city wasn't enough qualification for the tasting, Steve used to be the Brew Master at several breweries in Northern California, and his knowledge of the commercial process of brewing beer speaks to the first facet of the beverage's lifeline: production.Tim Wissemann is owner and proprietor of Downeast Beverage on Commercial Street in Portland, which offers more than 225 brands of beer for sale and specializes in microbrews and imports. Tim's job involves tasting, evaluating, and recommending drinks to customers needing guidance. His expertise lies in the second phase of a beer's life-cycle: distribution.
Brian Norris represents the "everyman" in our tasting, but in truth, his experience as a home-brewer of wine, hard cider, and beer affords him a little more knowledge of beer ingredients than a true Joe Sixpack. Unlike the other three tasters, Brian's day job does not involve the tasting and evaluation of food and beverage products. Instead, he represents the last stage of the beverage's life: consumption.
Andy King, a food writer and restaurant critic for the Portland Phoenix in Maine for more than two and a half years, is a professional baker as well as an avid beer brewer and taster.
What Maine beers are known for, though, is the quality that transcends both production numbers and history. The state's twenty or so breweries — some of them brewpubs that don't even distribute beyond their walls — all take pride in staying true to their craft, not taking shortcuts that more often than not come through in the final product.
At least, that's Maine's reputation. To test it, we've put a panel of tasters through a rigorous evening of blind beer tasting. Ten of the state's most famous brews were poured, and without knowing which beer was which, the panel was asked to evaluate the quality of each drink, so that preceding reputation or personal preference would not be a factor.
Most of these beers are widely available in Maine stores. Your local beer and wine shop can also special order microbrews.
Allagash Dubbel Ale
100 Industrial Way, Portland, ME 04103.
207-878-5385. www.allagash.com
While sticking to one style of beer and one style only, Allagash has established itself as one of the premiere Belgian beer producers in the country. The Dubbel Ale is a fine example of their offerings. King's notes read: "Great lacy head. Citrusy, light aroma. Amped up!" Steve Corry got smoky banana. Both Tim Wissemann and Brian Norris commented on the lasting caramel body and long finish. All in all a fantastic offering, from its tawny color to the classic fruity nose all the way down the throat.
Andrew's English Pale Ale
RFD #1, Box 4975,
Lincolnville, ME 04849.
Wine expert Wissemann likened this beer to a Sauvignon Blanc, and Norris called the body and taste "husky and citrusy," with strong notes of grapefruit pith. These are mostly results of a heavy hopping of the beer throughout the brewing process, and "a late hop addition in there," according to Corry. While the hops were more than present and accounted for, the brew was a bit lacking in body and finish that King said "just fades off and left you hanging with the bitter." This one is for the hop-heads out there.
Sebago Brewing Boathouse Brown Ale
150 Philbrook Avenue,
South Portland, ME 04106.
207-879-2537. www.sebagobrewing.com
When trying this beer after a bit of warming up, tasters found the malty aroma almost overpoweringly rich. They noted molasses, smoke, and wort (unfermented beer) right away, with chocolate and coffee rounding out the nose ("This is like no beer I've ever smelled!" declared Steve Corry). Despite that, enough bittering hops were used to balance the sweetness, keeping this potentially cloying brew nice and dry in the finish. For those who like a drink before dinner and a drink after, this is a smooth beer and espresso all-in-one.
Freeport Brewing Brown Hound Brown Ale
46 Durham Road,
Freeport, ME 04032.
This brewery is, relatively speaking, one of the newer additions to the Maine brewing scene, having been founded in 1999. Despite that, this beer was one of the better surprises of the tasting. After smelling, sipping, and carefully hemming and hawing, Corry declared, "Going through the aroma, straight through to the balance and finish, this is a really nicely crafted beer." With a perfumy nose reminiscent of ripe fruits and banana, it has a beautiful, round body and a chocolatey-smooth finish. Ever aware of how the beer will fit into his tasting schedule, Norris noted that he could drink this beer "often."
Stone Coast Brewing 420 India Pale Ale
207-838-3985. www.stonecoast.com
An India Pale Ale, due to its history as a stronger, hoppy beer that could withstand long boat journeys from England to India, should be characterized by a strong hop aroma and moderate to high bitterness as well as decent maltiness for balance. This brew, while balanced well enough, just didn't have the intensity to taste like an IPA to all tasters. However, Corry really enjoyed it warmed up a few degrees. "Fantastic mouthfeel, this is served right where it should be," he said. There is bitterness involved, and it clearly asserts itself about three seconds after the swallow, leading Wissemann to enjoy its "really long finish."
Atlantic Brewing Bar Harbor Real Ale
15 Knox Road,
Bar Harbor, ME 04609.
207-288-2337. www.atlanticbrewing.com
The first thing tasters noticed about this beer was its intense aroma, classified as everything from coffee to red wine to smoke. The nose followed throughout the entire tasting, although Norris said the body was "not as heavy as I expected." King agreed that "it doesn't have a ton of body, for the aroma." Brewers that use heavily toasted malts always walk a fine line, however, as Corry reminded us: "Some brewers like to accentuate a roasted flavor too much, and that can be dangerous. There's enough residual sugar in this to carry the weight of the malts, though."
Casco Bay Pale Ale
57 Industrial Way,
Portland, ME 04103.
207-797-2020. www.cascobaybrewing.com
Casco Bay's Pale Ale is a relatively new addition to the brewery's lineup, and every taster had something to say about its accentuated hoppiness. Wissemann thought it was a balanced brew, with the hops contributing to the green apple aroma, Norris thought the finish was crisp and dry, King thought that the bitterness was what carried the beer, and Corry simply felt nostalgic. "The aroma is tense, it reminds me of dealing with fresh hops, like I can feel them in my hands," he said. "It has an almost tannic reaction in the mouth."
Shipyard Export Ale
86 Newbury Street,
Portland, ME 04101.
207-761-0807. www.shipyard.com
Arguably the most well-known Maine brew, this one confounded all tasters because this was the one beer everyone thought they would be able to identify. It was received with universally suitable satisfaction. All tasters detected a buttery nose and a dry finish. Norris called it a "nice, summery beer," while Corry detected wheat right off the bat. King liked the balance, stating that, unlike a lot of newer microbrews, "it's not trying to be an IPA." All agreed that it tastes best served cold, but not freezing. As it warms, it loses the crispness of the carbonation.
Gritty McDuff's Original Pub Style
396 Fore Street,
Portland, ME 04101.
207-772-2736. www.grittys.com
This brew seemed to travel down the middle of the road for all tasters. Like the Shipyard, there was a richness in the aroma — everyone noted caramel and butter — and was suitably balanced from top to bottom. The only thing was, as King put it, "there wasn't a whole lot to balance, you know?" There were some hops in the finish, but it was short-lived. A decent session beer (one that you can enjoy over longer drinking sessions) such as this one usually has more subtle characteristics; judging by this brew's name, that was its original purpose.
Geary's Hampshire Special Ale
38 Evergreen Drive,
Portland, ME 04103.
207-878-2337. www.gearybrewing.com
Characterized best as an English strong ale, this beer has all the hallmarks of the style: a rich, dark amber color, a spicy and toasted nose, full body, and a higher alcohol content. "This one has a nice balance of weight and heat — it's nice and round," notes Corry. Compared to the lighter ales, this one has an almost brandyish feel. "Soft, moderate mouthfeel with a long barley finish," is how Wissemann describes the balance. The Hampshire Ale used to be a seasonal beer, but Geary's recently made it available year-round, and Norris declares it "a good four-season beer."

After a walk across the Brooklyn Bridge you might have walked up an appetite. This cozy bar/restaurant in Boerum Hill /Brooklyn is a great place to relax and eat something. The interior is very eclectic, the food good and the service great. It's a little bit like being in France.
Excellent food and drink. Great atmosphere. Mussels, Burgers etc are wonderful Fabulous bread. Talk to the bartender Eat on the sidewalk and watch the world go by
Went here for lunch. Party of 6. Joked about that the included 20% tip for larger parties on the bill would mean not so prioritized service. This actually proved to be true. We had to wait a long time. However, when it arrived, we were given a free set of drinks and that gesture saved our impression. The food was... More
Cosy, atmospheric lighting, busy but not loud, real mix of clientele, friendly bar staff, locals happy to chat. We didn't eat but the menu looked good, plenty of people eating but we enjoyed a couple of drinks at the bar. Great place to while away an evening, small bar area with 6 or 7 stools.
Bar Tabac stood out to me immediately when I moved to this neighborhood and I would visit it often. Now, I have moved further down the F line but still appreciate the food, atmosphere, and decor. And, when I can, I will stop in for lunch or a Leffe and think of France.
I came here as I waited to check into my hotel. It is a very cool space. The staff was friendly. The food was good. Can't complain.

Russia House
Online Reservations
Great birthday dinner. Excellent elk and rabbit. Very good service
Three of us had a wonderful dinner. Two ordered elk and the third ordered shashlik. The meat was exceptionally well prepared, as were the vegetables, and everything was beautifully presented. Caviar blinis as appetizers were good, although not outstanding. The waitress was attentive, knowledgable, and very pleasant; she had excellent suggestions for both vodka and wine. The vodka list consists of 120+ different kinds of vodka. The decor is sort of faded Romanov -- lots of red and gilt, but a little past its prime. Don't let the decor stop you; the dinner was really a treat.
Went to RH to try it out and had a great dinner. The vodka flight (there must be 80) was perfectly chosen (and not a hangover to be found). The shots are large and the presentation beautiful. The building is interesting, and we were seated downstairs where it was quiet. The other floors were alive - and I and my wife have been looking for for a long time for a lounge with upholstered seating - and this is the place. The food was all delicious. The Pelmini was to die for, and the blini's - especially the duck - scrumptious.
We are from Phila but this is a restaurant we choose everytime we are i DCI
We always enjoy this restaurant. This time we tried to make a reservation a few days in advance of a Sat. night. We requested a 6pm reservation and Open Table told us that the only opening was 5pm. We were not excited for that on a Sat night, but we took it because our guests really wanted to eat at this restaurant. The restaurant was empty when we arrived at 5pm. After enjoying our meal, we left around 7:15pm. The restaurant was still less than 50% full. We wondered why we could not get a 6pm reservation.
Was quiet on a Wed night, although bar looked to be getting full when we left. Our waitress was a wonderful young woman, recently moved here from Serbia. She was very friendly and very helpful with the menu. There is an EXTENSIVE vodka menu, she helped us pick 6 for our sampler, to sip throughout the meal. had the blinis to initiate ourselves to caviar - sevruga and red salmon. These are the apps to get to "say" you've eaten caviar, not to really have caviar as an appetizer. Were good, alot of sour cream. The borsch was fantastic. The elk was one of the most tender pieces of meat we'd ever tried, cooked perfectly. Stroganoff was also flavorful. Had the fruit/cheese filled blinis for dessert, just average. Overall great experience.
At a late-evening dinner, we had excellent borsch, then beef stroganoff, elk, shishlik, and chicken Kiev--all very tasty and nicely presented. Decadent chocolate lava bombe and blueberry/cheese blinis topped it off. Our waiter was heavily accented, but friendly, helpful, and impressively well informed on the offerings. The feeling was 4-0 in favor of a return visit. The only downside was the necessity of street parking, not an easy task on Friday night. Take the Metro or a cab if you can.
great night trying Russian and Russian take on interesting entrees
The food at Russia house is exceptional (even if you don't partake of the vodka or caviar -- both of which are available in amazing quantity and variety). The borsch, blinis (especially the duck and wild mushroom), perogis, heirloom pork, and arctic char are all fantastic. The service is friendly and efficient. The decor could use a face lift, but it's comfortable and clean. We have been there 3 times and will definitely be back.
Sergei gave great service. Best choice if vodka in DC. Love the borsch and Olivier salad was also delicious. I had a wonderful view on the window to the corner of Florida and Connecticut. My favorite restaurant in DC.
Great food, great service, right sized portions, pleasing ambiance, prompt serivce. I will return for my next special occasion with significant other.
Food, service and atmosphere was excellent. We always dine at Russia House when we're in D. C. This was our third time in 4 years. it was better than I remembered. Elk sausage is a must try. Vodka flight is always fun.
We went for our tenth anniversary dinner. Everything was delicious. Perfect experience.
A friend of mine is moving away and she loves Russia House! I'd never been there for dinner but thoroughly enjoyed my experience! Our server was informative and attentive, the vodka selection is vast, and the multi-level/multi-room set up leaves each area intimate and quiet enough for good conversation.
Our first time to a Russian restaraunt and we will definitly be back. Food was great and the service fantastic. You have to ttry the vodka sampler but make sure you are walking or taking a taxi.....
Brought my cousin there who was visiting from out of town. She has been to Russia many times and completely endorses Russia house. Lamb pierogis were divine as was the elk sausage appetizer and beef stroganoff.
While Russia House's vodka selection is hard to beat, their beer is also quite good. Good service and delicious traditional Russian cuisine to top it off. A bit pricey, though.
Very unique and one of the best meals I ever had. The Moscow Borsch was excellent and just melted in your mouth. ,
So was chicken croquettes with two salads. Also, the beef stroganoff was good, too!
My fiance and i went to Russia House to clebrate md finishing my Masters degree and we had an amazing time. Our server was extremely friendly, just the right amount of attentive, and super knowledgeable about the menu and drink list. Great experience!
Lovely meal of assorted Russian appetizers with a flight of six very distinct vodkas (e.g., birch!), in a sumptuously dark setting. Waitstaff all Russian and all very helpful and knowledgeable. Even a grumpy looking bouncer type lurking in the shadows. Don't go if you don't want a trip to the motherland, but you won't be disappointed if you that's your goal.
Russia House has always been known for their drinks; however, about 2 years ago I discovered their food as well and have been taking guests there ever since for a fun, unusual and entertaining dinner. My two friends and I decided to do a host of appetizers, which worked very well to taste a wide variety of food...all of it excellent! The only disappointment was that they took off the smoked sturgeon appetizer...it was my favorite! Our waitress was very well informed, friendly and accommodating -- all in all, a true pleasure....but please: bring back the smoked sturgeon!! :-)
This was our fourth visit to Russia House and everything was fantastic. We brought another couple who have been wanting to try it, and it appeared they really enjoyed their dinners as well. Mila waited on us this time around. She was very nice, but I don't think she is as knowledgeable about the menu as Sergei is. In the future, I will ask for him. My wife had the duck, which was cooked a perfect medium rare, and I had the Shashlik. The other couple also had the Shashlik and the Chicken Kiev. For appetizers, we had the borsch, potato mushroom cocotte (my favorite), the Russia House Salad and the lamb pierogies. Go when you have some time to relax and enjoy a nice evening. No point rushing through a meal this good.
I was there for my 35th birthday, we were a small group of 4 and they gave us a private room. Everything about the evening was exceptional! The food, the service, I could not have been more pleased!
This was our third time at Russia House. The food is always fantastic and the weight staff is very accommodating and knowledgeable about the menu and extensive vodka list. (Which in itself is outstanding.) I'm gluten free and, although they don't have gluten-free bread alternatives they do their best to accommodate me any way they can. Always a great experience.
Russia House is an absolutely beautiful restaurant and lounge with great character and outstanding customer service. The red-accented, dimly-lit decor is the perfect atmosphere for a romantic date night. The wait staff is very calm, knowledgable, and friendly. I was struck by how gracious and poised our waitress was throughout the evening. The vodka menu is remarkable, with over 150 varieties including some made in house. The wide variety of wine and beer selections is also notable. The food, however, topped it all. We shared the mushroom and potato croquette, which was so savory and delicious that we decided we needed to find a recipe. The Chicken Kiev was wonderfully presented, and my pirogues were phenomenal. We will definitely be back.
We went during restaurant week, so the menu was limited, but there was still a lot of variety and everything on it was amazing. It even came with a free "savoury bite" at the beginning of the meal. The service was also excellent; I was impressed. The outside looks a little run down, which makes Russia House slightly more difficult to find (I knew exactly where it was, but with the big wooden doors shut, I wasn't sure we were actually allowed in for a moment), but the inside is lavish and plush. Great for a date.
Unique! Delicious food and an impressive Vodka list!
This was my first time at Russia House. Having been to Russia last summer, I was craving Russian cuisine and culture. This was a great choice! The Borst, Stroganoff, and lava cake were very good. The bread is excellent and there is an extensive wine and drink list -- they eve had our favorite Russian beer. I will definitely return!
We went for restaurant week and had a very nice time. There are multiple bars upstairs; I recommend the small one to the left. Our meal was a great value. Try the Beluga vodka. Unless you are walking stay away from the 6 shot sampler. Our waiter was great and in no rush to move us along. All and all a very good meal and a place I would go back to. OBTW: as best i could tell most if not all of the staff are Russian or FSU.
Russia House was great. We took our kids and we all enjoyed the experience.
The food was superb, service was outstanding and the vodka sampler, with advice from our server, was fun for tasting and to share.
only Russian restaurant in DC. Owned and staffed by Russians. Historic building in Dupont Circle neighborhood. Food excellent but a little slow to come out of the kitchen. Service personnnel excellent. Bar menu features over 100 kinds of vodka from all over the world, wines from Georgia and the full gamut of Baltika beers.
Got to taste what Beef Stroganoff should taste like. The pirogue app attest was beyond good. It was excellent. They also had a nice little selection of Baltika beer from Russia. It is a rare treat to find a restaurant outside of the German, Belgian, English persuasion that actually sports a decent selection of interesting beers from its home country.
Love Russia House! Always have a great time when we go.
We've been coming to Russia House for years. Love the frayed ambiance; it's like having orthodox easter dinner at babushka's house. I normally love the super flavorful food, too. Not tonight. Overall, the dinner was ok but really bland. The chicken kiev was actually seasoned well but was dried out. The duck confit blini was the only highlight & I strongly recommend it. Service was charming, as always.
Simply authentic Russian food with the best wine and vodka list in the country. The service was superb as well. Definitely on my come back list when I am in DC.
We found the food & service to be quite good. The decor and atmosphere in the restaurant are great. Look forward to returning.
The food was good but not great. Probably should stick to old standards such as Chicken Kiev and Beef Stroganoff. The variety of vodkas was amazing. I loved my vodka martini with the Beloga (the cheaper one) vodka.
The menu is subject to being updated - my husband was looking forward to the same game entree he had previously which was not offered anymore :-( However; our waitress was very attentive and knowledgeable of both the food and drinks offered so she was able to make many suggestions based on our preferences. The vodka list is extensive. The food is worth the price. We arrived early and were seated immediately though we offered to wait at the bar. We will definitely return.
This was my 3rd visit here, each time a treat. Food is always interesting and tasty. Love the atmosphere, however the place could use a little polishing up. I was hoping for Moscow Mule in a copper cup, but was in a martini glass, if this is my only disappointment in life I will be just fine.
Enjoyed this restaurant very much. My fiance is Russian so I wanted to give him a taste of home while savoring a new style of food. The waitress was very friendly and gave us a nice sampling of their vodkas. The food was wonderful and my fiancé and I were given a nice table location as requested. This is a good restaurant for a romantic evening out or food true foodies. It is rather expensive to dine here but worth the price for the experience.
I love the Russia House every time we go. We tend to go on special occasions - as it is 'full price.' Russia House food is carefully prepared - and quite delicious. The service is fantastic - with the waitress and other servers providing careful and polite service. The waitress usually helps us to try new things (e.g. rabbit or lamb). We never feel rushed, and are always happy when we leave.
My boyfriend and I have been here with small and large groups - it's great for any occasion! The wait staff is very polite and knowledgeable and the food it out of this word. Get the vodka sampler (ask them for their recommendations) and try the borscht and elk sausage with cherries.
Wonderful variety of authentic Russian food to include caviar, duck and rabbit. We highly recommend the vodka flight. It's safe to be adventurous when ordering here because everything was wonderful!
Outstanding food and ambience. Natallia should receive "server of the year" honors for her patience and explanation of the various dishes. She made the evening very enjoyable. A gem of a restaurant and a gem of a server. Everything about this restaurant is top notch.
This is an authentic, delightful venue for really enjoying a complete Russian experience. All of the dishes are prepared by a chef whose heritage is Russian and all your questions are answered in detail by servers who obviously enjoy what they are doing. The wine selection is wonderful as well. The dining rooms are in a house near Dupont Circle with old-fashioned charm. Seated near us was a group who were visiting the US from the "old country" and they agreed that their meal was outstanding, respectful of historical recipes and crafted from fresh, high-quality ingredients.
Server was great with recommendations and food/beverages were wonderful!
This is a wonderful place and has unique and delicous food. My spouse and I meet another couple for dinner on a Monday evening and we all had a wonderful time. The vodka sampler was recommended by our server and she did a fantastic job picking the vodkas for us. She also provided great recommendations for our appetizers and entrees. Thank you Russia House for providing us all such a memorable meal and evening out.
I truly felt like a world traveler after eating at the Russia House. The waitress was great - she offered recommendations and she was very attentive. There was an amazing selection and variety of food - try the chicken Kiev!! The vodka was smooth and delicious

I see the government as an extremely unfortunate, seldom needed, but sometimes valuable asset. Much like unions.
Warning: Society-first rant
There was a time when society (as a whole) understood and mostly followed established "norms" (be they written or unwritten). There were topics that were not appropriate around women or children. There were words that were not used except in the privacy of one's home. There were actions that were not openly accepted, and incited immediate reaction should they be acted upon.
But, blame liberals, blame conservatives, blame whomever... but times have changed, and we've gone from a successful society where people knew what was and wasn't accepted as "normal" by society. If they chose to abide by the norms, they were generally left alone. If they chose not to follow them, they knew there may or may not be repercussions... but they accepted responsibility for their actions.
Society has shifted from responsibility (accepting personal responsibility or even societal responsibility) to a strong "me first" mentality. Some may argue whether it's good or bad. That's not my point.
My point is because people have placed their own desires over establishing and following norms for society (which could very easily be adapted for different levels of society), government has stepped in to establish these norms in the form of laws.
These laws have gone from protecting the public in a standardized way, to outright intervening. That intervening has, as have union actions in my analogy, done well for society as a whole... but led to far overreaching (by both organizations) because of societies desire to put themselves first.
Just my $.02. Not right or wrong... just my opinion.

Matthew 3:1–6; Mark 1:1–6; Luke 3:2–4, 11, 14
In those days came John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judea, and saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. Matthew 3:1–2
John the Baptist lived in the wilderness of Judea (see Matthew 3:1; Luke 3:2). He wore clothes made of camel's hair and a leather belt around his waist. He ate locusts and wild honey. (See Matthew 3:4; Mark 1:6.)
John traveled throughout Jordan preaching repentance and baptism for the remission of sins. His mission was to prepare the people for the coming of Jesus Christ. He told them the Lord would soon come and they had to be ready to meet Him. (See Matthew 3:2–3; Mark 1:2–4; Luke 3:3–4.) Many people repented, and John baptized them in the Jordan River (see Matthew 3:5–6; Mark 1:5). He also taught the people to treat others with kindness and to share what they had with those who were in need (see Luke 3:11, 14).
John the Baptist was a prophet who lived in the wilderness of Judea. His mission was to prepare people for the coming of Jesus Christ. John taught the people repentance and baptism for the remission of sins. Many believed his words and came to be baptized.

HOUSTON (AP) - A spokesman says former President George H.W. Bush's condition continues to improve and that he was moved Saturday out of intensive care and into a regular hospital room.
Family spokesman Jim McGrath said in a statement Saturday that the Bushes thank everyone for their prayers and good wishes.
Bush was hospitalized Nov. 23 for treatment of a bronchitis-related cough. He was moved to intensive care at Houston's Methodist Hospital on Dec. 23 after he developed a fever.
Bush, the 41st president, is the country's oldest living former president by a few months.

Special Primary Election Tuesday for Mass. Senate Seat Vacated by Knapik
Voters Tuesday in parts of Hampden and Hampshire counties will narrow the field in the special election to replace former state Sen. Mike Knapik.
Knapik left the legislature in early August to take a better paying job at Westfield State University. The Republican lawmaker's departure thinned GOP ranks in the Senate to just three.
There are two Republicans on the ballot Tuesday vying for the party's nomination: Donald Humason, a six-term state representative who - for a long time - worked as an aide to Knapik; and Mike Franco, an investigator with the Holyoke veteran services office who's run - unsuccessfully - in at least five other elections, usually for Governor's Council.
The Democrats running are Holyoke City Councilor David Bartley and longtime Easthampton Mayor Michael Tautznik.
The winners of the primaries face each other on November 5th.

Lynn of Athens, Ga., asked for help finding a lost recipe for "a pineapple cake that was the best I have had." She recalled "it had a whipped cream mixture on top and in the layers. It had to be refrigerated."
Readers sent us recipes for all kinds of pineapple cakes with lots of whimsical names.
"It was originally called Pea Pickin' Cake because the cake was served to folks returning from the hot fields from picking peas," wrote Gloria Quick of Dunn, N.C. "The name has evolved to Pig-Pickin' Cake because it is often served at Southern 'pig-pickins.' That's when a pig is cooked on a big grill and folks come by and pick the meat off."
"This is Tennessee Ernie Ford Cake," wrote Betty S. of Homestead. "We've been making it since forever, at least the last 50 years." Betty's cake is almost exactly like Pea Pickin' Cake, but calls for the pineapple juice to be drained from the fruit and poured over the warm cake. Then the fruit itself is folded into the frosting.
"The pineapple cake is possibly called Better than Sex Cake," said Kay Scott. "It uses cake mix, mandarin oranges in the batter, and vanilla instant pudding mix, cool whip and crushed pineapple in the frosting."
J.C. of Miami sent an unnamed recipe that says a lemon or white cake mix may be used.
Key lime chicken
Gwin of Miami Springs asked if anyone had the recipe for the Key Lime Chicken from Miami's gone-but-not-forgotten Firehouse restaurant. We didn't hear from any restaurant sources, but Laura James sent the recipe here. I tried it for my Fourth of July barbecue and it was a true success.
"I'm not sure where the recipe came from, because I'm forever scratching down recipes from TV shows or ripping them from the newspaper," James wrote. "It is my go-to grilled chicken recipe and never fails to keep the chicken moist and punched with Key lime flavor."
Barbecue book
In Wicked Good Barbecue (Fair Winds Press, $21.99) Boston chef Andy Husbands and pit master Chris Hart give a decidedly Yankee slant to grill recipes. Besides sharing recipes that won them hundreds of competitions, they provide lots of humor and fun side dishes (fried mac and cheese pops) plus intriguing techniques (using a flower pot to mimic a tandoori oven).
The recipes are pretty intense, with lots of steps for the serious grill warrior, not the casual cook. I suggest making half the dry rub recipe here if you do not grill often, as the paprika in particular will lose flavor with long storage. The rub has a pretty hefty heat factor, but does wonders to just about anything you'd throw on the grill.

'We could get a good coach, that can't recruit..not sure which is harder to swallow..'
You can have the best coach in the country and if he is a bad recruiter you will find which is harder to swallow.
Josh is learning and he has a lot to learn: better offensive movement and sets; game plans; in-game changes; substitution patterns; etc, It is not uncommon for Josh to get out-coached. But, he has made a lot of progress in the last three years, just not enough for some fans. Losing several of his assistants has hurt the team play as consistently as it might.
People complain, rightly, that we get out-coached after halftime. I think losing our defensive coach last year has hurt this team quite a lot. Last year we were one of the best ranked defenses in the country. This year, with the addition of Shaq and Geron and the emergence of DJ, we should be absolute monsters on defense. While we are good and can play very well at times, why we are we not much better than last year is hard to understand! It must have something to do with the defensive coaching, no? I am not sure that falls on Josh, at least directly. Indirectly, sure and it is ultimately his responsibility. If we could keep up the defensive intensity for a whole game, we would blow more teams out and battle against top 20 teams, like we did Louisville, until Pitino made some key adjustments. We actually dominated them early because of defense. We have awed several opponents in the first half, only to see them make adjustments and find ways to beat our defense in the 2nd half. I think a better defensive coach, one that could match the adjustments of the other teams after halftime, would do wonders for this team.
Offense can come and go, some nights you are hot and other nights cold, but your defense should be consistently strong. The Tigers have the players to play monster 'D' and often they do. Just not for whole games.
I love Josh and love the job he has done and the players he recruits. I love the way he represents the university and the way he guides the players in school and through life. He is very well liked by the media, the administration, the vast majority of important donors, and, most importantly, by 4 and 5 star high school basketball players. If we could sign Josh to a 10 year extension, I would be all for it.

However, as opposed to many fake food scandals in China, experts have said the fake fins could be healthier for humans, while animal rights activists have welcomed the duplicity.
An anonymous media officer from Fengtai Administration of Industry and Commerce told the Global Times that they have investigated all the seafood markets in the district.

Q: Why is the 17 bus, leaving Côte Vertu and heading south at 4:49 p.m., never on time? Due to various health issues taking the métro is not always a solution for me, especially with stairs and broken down escalators. I often see a 17 bus pass me at my stop on Decarie Blvd. and de l'Église heading north to Côte Vertu at 4:37 p.m. You would think that it would turn around and be at my stop at 4:51 p.m., but sometimes it doesn't even pass. The next bus is only at 5:21 p.m. On Nov. 1 a 17 finally came at 5:14 p.m. but within 10 feet from our stop changed its sign to 'en transit' and did not stop!
This 17 has a very bad track record. It is late or not running at least twice a week or more. Who decides this bus shouldn't run its route? People are stranded all along Decarie. I have made numerous complaints to the Société de transport de Montréal to no avail. This is totally unacceptable. We are being held hostage by the STM and our ransom is increased fares. Why should we pay more for a service we don't even receive?
Barbara Howard
A: "We are aware of the problem," STM spokesperson Isabelle Tremblay said, pointing to construction along the route and the 17's low ridership as reasons for late or missing buses. Construction near Queen Mary Rd. and the Metropolitan Expressway became "more intense since September" and there is also lots of work on Decarie Blvd. near St. Jacques St. around the superhospital site, she added. Bus riders should consider taking the métro instead, Tremblay added, noting that some of the construction will continue for most of 2013. The 17 starts at Côte Vertu métro, where 16 other bus routes also depart. The 17 is not as high on the priority list as high-ridership routes when it comes to re-assigning buses during breakdowns, for example.
"I can understand that it is frustrating," Tremblay said, and noted that the 'en transit' sign means a bus is switching between bus routes, as planned, and is headed for another area.
"The frequency (of the 17) won't change but we are going to try and inject a couple more buses on the route next year."

Q: The Lucien L'Allier train station is a terminus for three Agence métropolitaine de transport lines but there are no reasonable inter-modal connections (i.e. métro or bus lines are only accessible after long walks), the train station platforms are open to the elements with uneven surfaces and crumbling edges, the station is almost invisible from the nearest street (Ave. des Canadiens-de-Montréal) and the main exit/entrance across the hockey plaza is paved with slippery, uneven stones. What urban planning moron decided to permit the simultaneous construction of several office/condo towers around the station?
When will AMT customers stop being treated as the red-headed stepchildren of public transit in Montreal?
On another topic, on Nov. 7 I received three AMT email alerts about the 5:20 p.m. train from Lucien L'Allier to Hudson. They were sent at 5:56, 6:26 and 6:28 p.m. but came too late to let me know that the train would be eight to 10 minutes late.
Laurens Verkade
A: The AMT was still in talks about station access with land developers and Ville Marie borough last week, AMT spokeswoman Claudia Martin said. "Be assured we will take the necessary steps" to ensure safe, adequate access to the station during the towers' construction, she said.
"As a general rule," alerts are emailed within eight minutes of the agency learning of a malfunction, she added. "There may be exceptions for reasons we can't control."

Last week's poll: Should there be a move-over law for pedestrians on streets without sidewalks?
No; that would be unworkable: 21%
Yes; the law should force drivers to make room: 56%
On some suburban streets it might make sense: 23%

I have had 6 i7 920's and have found them to be easy to oc to at least 3.8GHz (if not more) So the i7 gets my vote
i'm poor so i'm running a athlon 64 X2 6000 just got cheap,back up 3800 X2 oc'ed to 2500MHz and sitting on my desk are athlon 64 3200-- athlon 3500 -- athlon 3500 -- athlon 3800 -- all 939's and a couple of 754 3200's then a couple of 462 chips also
I'm down with the i7 and I'm happy to have my i7 960 OEM CPU. It can easily be overclocked to 4GHz and still run stably, and my CPU has more potential than the normal ones as it has access to a 25th multiplier and that is not including the other part of how the QPI can be upped to 6.4GT/s (although I see no differences with the QPI). ^^
I am running: 1 Core i7 Extreme 975 1 Core 2 Quad Q9650 1 Opteron 180 1 Core 2 Extreme X6800 1 Phenom II X3 1 Core 2 Duo T7500 1 Core 2 Duo T9600
I did hae a sempron so slow. just got a new PC from Build Your box with a AMD Phenom X6 1055T much better!
Not me, I was loaded before I brought my i7 system, but now I'm poor. Well I still able to afford upgrades like a new HDD, but not a new system...
Wooo Core 2 Quad and Duo tied at 73!!! Proud to be a Core 2 Quad user. Looking forward to future Intel releases. Also a big fan of AMD(I got a Phenom X4, too)
I have an Awesome Intel Core i5 750 CPU. It has served me over a year now. Here's the Max OC i reached with it. :") http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=1547850 Gonna upgrade to Sandy Bridge now.
Very nice OC for a quad core, i think the highest i got validated on my Xeon was 4.8ghz or so, but i think i could get to 5ghz with the right motherboard
The motherboard was limiting me to go beyond 4.5Ghz. Im sure it could reach more with a better motherboard. But im done with LGA1156. Sandy Bridge! Im Coming for ya.

October is ideal for planting spring-blooming bulbs, such as tulips and daffodils. As that perfect time passes, garden centers slash bulb prices. If you're having a mild fall and your soil isn't yet frozen, grab some bargain bulbs. If you can dig into the soil at least 10 inches, you can plant bulbs, even with light snow on the ground. Make sure bargain bulbs are firm, free of mold or mildew and still have most of their papery skin.

As a member of the 1967-68 Milwaukee NAACP Youth Council, Margaret (Peggy) Rozga participated in the successful campaign to secure passage of federal and local fair housing legislation.
She later married civil rights leader Father James Groppi whom she first met when he drove a group of Milwaukee students to Alabama to work in a 1965 voter registration campaign organized by the Southern Christian Leadership Conference.
As a professor of English at the University of Wisconsin Waukesha, she taught creative writing and multi-cultural literature courses. She served for five years as the advisor to UW Waukesha Students for Peace.
As the convener of the March On Milwaukee Coordinating Committee, a group of community activists and university scholars, she led the planning of a series of events to commemorate the 40th anniversary of these fair housing marches. These included a day-long community conference hosted at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee and a commemorative celebration on the James E. Groppi Unity Bridge (formerly the 16th Street Viaduct).
Her play March On Milwaukee, presents in dramatic form the story of Milwaukee's fair housing marches. It has seen four full productions and three concert readings. Her book about the fair housing campaign, Two Hundred Nights and One Day, was awarded a bronze medal in poetry in the 2009 Independent Publishers Book Awards and named an outstanding achievement in poetry for 2009 by the Wisconsin Library Association.
She is also the author of a second book of poems, Though I Haven't Been to Baghdad, recently been released by Benu Press. Her essay on poetry and politics appeared in the fall issue of Verse Wisconsin and has been nominated by the editors for a Pushcart Prize. Her poems have appeared recently or are forthcoming in journals including Nimrod and Stoneboat.

A. Van Jordan is a professor of English at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. Van was born and raised in Akron, Ohio. Although much of his academic career has been spent in the South—he taught at Prince George's Community College in Maryland, The University of North Carolina at Greensboro and, most recently, at the University of Texas at Austin—he began his academic training at Wittenberg University, Springfield, Ohio, for his BA in English Literature. Coming back to the Midwest to join the English department at U-M seems like a natural transition for Van. He also holds an MA in Communications from Howard University and an MFA in Creative Writing from the MFA Program for Writers at Warren Wilson College.
His first book, Rise (2001), published by Tia Chucha Press and distributed by Northwestern University Press, tracks not only the history of African American music, but also the music of his life growing up in Ohio. His second book, M-A‑C-N-O-L-I-A (2004), published by W.W. Norton & Co, tells the story of MacNolia Cox, an Akron resident who was the first African American to reach the final round of the National Spelling Bee competition in 1936. Rise won the Josephine Miles PEN/Oakland award; M-A-C-N-O-L-I-A was awarded an Anisfield-Wolf Award and selected as one of the Best Books of 2005 by the London Times (TLS). Van has also been awarded a Whiting Award and a Pushcart Prize. Van is finishing up a Guggenheim Fellowship this year, and he recently published his third collection of poems, Quantum Lyrics (2007, W.W. Norton & Co.).
Bryan N. Massingale received his doctorate in moral theology from the Academia Alphonsianum (Rome). He specializes in social ethics and teaches courses on Catholic Social Thought, African American religious ethics, liberation theologies, and racial justice. His approach to social ethics focuses upon the impact of religious faith as both an instrument of social injustice and a catalyst for social transformation.
In addition to his academic pursuits, Professor Massingale strives to be a scholar-activist through serving faith-based groups advancing justice in society. He is a noted authority on issues of social and racial justice, having addressed numerous national Catholic conferences and lectured at colleges and universities across the nation. He has served as a consultant to the United States Catholic Conference of Bishops, providing theological assistance on issues such as criminal justice, capital punishment, environmental justice, and affirmative action. He has also been a consultant to the National Black Catholic Congress, Catholic Charities USA, the Catholic Health Association, Catholic Relief Services, the Leadership Conference of Religious Women, the Conference of Major Superiors of Men, the National Catholic AIDS Network, and the antiracism teams of Call to Action and Pax Christi USA. He is an active participant in a network Catholic thought leaders striving for fuller inclusion of LGBT persons in society and the faith community.
