It’s the magic of the holiday season. Moments before the 2nd annual Holiday Stroll yesterday, the weather cleared. Hundreds of Westporters of all ages — including tons of kids — headed downtown. A small part of the large crowd. (Photo/Lynn Untermeyer Miller) They met Santa, dropped off letters to him, and gave gifts for the PAL toy drive. They had their faces painted, and got animal balloons. 11-year-old Owen Hill (blue jacket) provided animal balloons for dozens of even younger kids. (Photo/Dan Woog) They were serenated by Staples High School’s Orphenians, and Greens Farms Academy’s Harbor Blues. They wandered all around downtown too, joining in carols led by professional singer Nick Calabrese (plus 1st Selectwoman Jen Tooker). Nick Calabrese leads carolers. No, the… Source link

Well, it’s that time of year again. No, not the time of “Rudolph” or “Frosty” or even the biblical reason for the season. Not even time for artificially cinnamon-scented pine cones. Nope. Not that at all. Where we find ourselves this week is right smack in the middle of the annual debate about how best to delay the eventual point where your Christmas tree starts to deposit all its needles into your carpets, wool socks, cold air return vents, and your golden retriever’s impenetrable undercoat. So let’s get down to the question of how best to supercharge our Christmas trees so their fresh, green needles last until we’re ready to take the whole thing down. First off, let’s review what your garden variety Christmas tree goes through when it makes the transition from its Norman Rockwellian… Source link

Just 2 shopping days remain before the 2nd annual Holiday Stroll. Which is fine. The Stroll — on Saturday, December 3 (5 to 7 p.m.) — is where you can take care of all your holiday shopping. Plus: Where your kids can meet Santa, enjoy face painting and get balloon animals. All with live caroling (you can join the singers!), and lots of free food nibbles and hot chocolate (some happy hour drink prices too). The Holiday Stroll — co-sponsored by “06880” and the Westport Downtown Association — covers a wide swath. The main tent will be on Main Street (in front of Cold Fusion). Over 40 stores and restaurants have joined in, from Sconset Square to the Post Road, Church Lane and across the bridge to the west bank of the river too. Highlights include Greens Farms Academy’s… Source link

An anonymous reader quotes a report from Reuters: Scientists have long pursued a deeper understanding of wormholes and now appear to be making progress. Researchers announced on Wednesday that they forged two miniscule simulated black holes — those extraordinarily dense celestial objects with gravity so powerful that not even light can escape — in a quantum computer and transmitted a message between them through what amounted to a tunnel in space-time. It was a “baby wormhole,” according to Caltech physicist Maria Spiropulu, a co-author of the research published in the journal Nature. But scientists are a long way from being able to send people or other living beings through such a portal, she said. “Experimentally, for me, I will tell you that it’s… Source link

The Grub Spouse and I headed out Clinton Highway way last week to investigate a newish fast-casual eatery called Super Chix Chicken & Custard. Its specialties are revealed in the name. And while researching that place, I learned that one of Knoxville’s Crumbl Cookies locations was next door. This was shaping up to be a dessert-heavy evening, but it made sense for us to hit both birds with our proverbial one Grubby stone. We started out at Super Chix, where chicken sandwiches comprise the bulk of the menu. Options range from The Simple and the Nashville Hot to the Cheesy BBQ and Blackened Cajun. They even have a Chicken Slider, which is served on a King’s Hawaiian roll. Otherwise, sandwiches are made using their potato rolls, which incorporate dehydrated potatoes into the flour. Also… Source link
