  1. Holy Food!: Kosher and Its Imitators in Connecticut

    What exactly is kosher? The short answer is a religious certification given to any cooked or processed food that an observant Jew is permitted to eat. A satisfying answer in detail is not easy, so a visual aid may help: picture three identical matzo balls, each floating in its own bowl of soup: one at Shuman's in Bloomfield, the second at Gold's in Westport, and the third at Michael's in Middletown. The first is kosher, the second is "kosher-style", and the third is just an unaffiliated bowl of matzo ball soup. In addition to these three states of existence, the matzo ball itself straddles yet another stratum of culinary holiness: kosher-for-Passover knoshing.

  4. A Lecture by Artist John Gerrard at UHart on March 6

    Resource extraction goes on all around us, every day, from grabbing fossil fuels underneath our feet to modern agriculture and livestock cultivation. Irish artist John Gerrard takes "virtual portaits" of modern-day, Stonehendge-like masses that dot the landscape all across the country (one of his photographs appears above), the ones we usually drive past without noticing. He'll give a free lecture on Wednesday about his recent works, mostly to Hartford Art School students, but members of the public are invited to attend as well.

  10. Obama's Speech: Will It Work?

    President Obama came to the University of Hartford today to rally support for gun control, even as conservative senators are trying to delay legislation from coming up next week. The president&rsquo;s passionate speech in the state where a score of 6-year-olds and six educators were gunned down Dec. 14 was intended to shore up support in Congress for gun control. Will Obama&rsquo;s speech prompt the Senate to hold a vote on a gun bill next week? Will the reminder of the Newtown tragedy inspire the Senate to strengthen background checks on gun buyers and ban assault weapons and high-capacity magazines? What&rsquo;s your view? &nbsp;
