Jesus analogizes life with him to a narrow door or path. This specific image is meant to communicate two things to us: 1) Walking through that door into his presence, is like being invited to a banquet prepared for us. It's open to the lowly, to those that recognize that they are limping towards the finish line and that they don't have it all figured out. 2) What we are walking into by choosing it, is the beginning of a perpetual, lifelong climb where we learn to give over, little by little, all of the things that we hold more dear than Jesus himself.

This one's gonna hurt.And that's okay, pain is part of life. We all feel it, so let's give it the grace of our attention.You may have heard the phrase, “sore spot” or “trigger point” in reference to both metaphorical pain, and physical pain. Does your pain belong to a spot? Is that spot a circle, or more angular, or square? Does it have a third dimension? Is one sore spot connected to another?Pain is the impossible, words never touch what we feel, not really. By approaching pain in a new language of shape, colour, texture, dimensions, there is room for something new: curiosity. Instead of fixating on solution to the pain, or avoiding it altogether, we make a third option by offering our attention without a goal.Just to notice it with our drawing eye.=Watch on YouTube: =If you want to practice in sync with others, join my live Drawing Health class every Saturday on Zoom.

C.J. Chenier and squeezebox arrive Sunday In one Far Side cartoon by Gary Larson, angels greet newcomers with, "Welcome to heaven — here's your harp." Down below, the devil says, "Welcome to hell — here's your accordion." C.J. Chenier, who plays a bling-encrusted squeezebox, is laughing all the way to the bank. The man works: He has 18 gigs this month, in an arc from Texas to Minnesota to Rhode Island, including a stop at the Towne Crier in Beacon at 6 p.m. on Sunday (Feb. 22) with his group, The Red Hot Louisiana Band. Zydeco music from southwest Louisiana is a niche, of course, but within the realm, C.J. is royalty: His father, Clifton J. Chenier, who died in 1987 at age 62, is recognized as the king. C.J. switched from saxophone to accordion and kept the mojo going. On his website, he's described as the Crown Prince of Zydeco. "Other people said that, and it found me," he says. "I never sought it out." Zydeco pioneer Amede Ardoin used a button accordion, which Clifton Chenier dismissed in a documentary as "a small French" model. Still, its booming tone drowned out Dennis McGee's fiddle, which is nearly inaudible on the 22 tracks the two musicians made together from 1929 to 1934. The biracial duo exemplified the exchanges among the French-speaking population in Louisiana, who sharecropped or migrated to Port Arthur and Beaumont, Texas, where they were exposed to jazz and blues. "The difference between zydeco and cajun is the same as the blues and country," says C.J. Before establishing his music career, Clifton lived in Texas and began playing the louder, more versatile piano accordion with white and black keys instead of buttons, which filled rooms with sound in the days before amplification. In addition, he helped create the washboard vest, made from corrugated stainless steel. His brother, Cleveland Chenier, scraped out the rhythm with bottle caps, although C.J. says his player uses spoons. The original vest frottoir is in the collection of the National Museum of American History. With accordion and washboard as the base, Clifton began recording in the early 1950s. When electrified instruments revolutionized roots and popular music, Clifton added guitar, bass, drums, keyboards and horns. Unlike Ardoin, an old-timer who played a bit behind the beat, the king stomped out the rhythm. Playing the accordion is like wrestling with an alligator. "It keeps me in shape," says C.J. Pushing the keys with the right hand and keeping the bellows pumping is a challenge, but he pulls the shoulder straps tight to ensure that he can control the 25-pound instrument. The Towne Crier often clears out rows of tables to create space because, as C.J. says, zydeco is "happy-feet music that makes you smile, turns a bad day into a good one. Just joyful sounds from the swamps." The Towne Crier is located at 379 Main St. in Beacon. Tickets are $30 at townecrier.com or $35 at the door.
Have you ever wondered why bad things happen to good people? When Jesus was asked this question, he responded by inviting people to think differently about the present moment because no one knows what the future will hold. We tend to dwell on the past or worry about the future, but Jesus reminds us all we have is what we do with the moment we're in. The invitation to reimagine and re-evaluate our life in light of his love is always open.

Pastor George Grace said this, “The purpose for selling these animals in the temple, which to make the sacrifices of people more convenient. In other words, the people were not forced to raise and drive the animals for a long distance to get to the temple. It seems convenient sacrifice was the order of the day just as it was in the days with Malachi when the people offered the name in sick animals instead of the good ones (Malachi 1:8-14). It is no different today: we have done everything within our power to make sacrifice to Christ convenient in order to keep people coming to church, but whoever said that being a part of a local church and serving Christ was supposed to be convenient?” On the contrary, Christians are to offer their bodies sacrificially unto Him. Romans 12:1-2 says, “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God” Beloved, Romans 14:10-12 & 2 Corinthians 5:10,11 tells us that there is a day when you and I as followers of Jesus will stand before Him and we will give an account for how we stewarded the time, the relationships, our God given spiritual gifts, finances and even the words that we speak…..Matthew 12:33-37! Everything that we have, every gift, every penny, every talent, every gift, every minute belongs to Him and has been given unto us and is to be used for His glory and His kingdom. That day is coming beloved…that is why Jesus gave the teachings on the talents and pounds….we do everything we do in this life beloved because we know that day is coming. Mark 14:11 says this about Judas: “And when they heard it, they were glad, and promised to give him money. And he sought how he might conveniently betray him”. Reject the contemporary “what is in it for me”, convenient Christian lifestyle that is more concerned about the life that is now, than that which is to come. How do you pick up your cross conveniently? How do you deny yourself conveniently? How do you love others conveniently? How do you forgive others conveniently? How do you serve and bear one another's burdens others conveniently? How do you watch and pray conveniently?Jesus gave us the cases of the poor widows offering of all that she had and the account of the woman who poured out her life's savings on Him as examples of sacrificial living for His church to follow. How did they do that conveniently? I will never forget hearing John F Kennedy say these words at his inaugural address: “And so my fellow Americans. Ask not what your country can do for you ask what you can do for your country. My fellow citizens of the world ask not what America will do for you....".Never did I ever think that I would be saying these words as a 77 years old pastor to the consumer driven, what's in it for me church in America today: Ask not what the Lord Jesus can do for you, ask what you can do for the Lord Jesus. The words of the prophet Haggai 1:5-7 rings true to every person. That day to stand before our Lord Jesus and give an account is coming beloved, make the most of every opportunity that God gives you to serve Him and bring Him glory. Consider your ways.

(The Center Square) – A retail business advocate says a federal judge's ruling to uphold the Interchange Fee Prohibition Act paves the way for Main Street Illinois to experience major relief, but a banking advocate says the law could slow commerce and foul up transactions. U.S. District Court Judge Virginia Kendall ruled on Tuesday that the law to ban processing fees on the tax and tip portion of credit and debit card transactions could be implemented as scheduled July 1. Illinois Retail Merchants Association President and CEO Rob Karr said removing the pressure of swipe fees on prices will be a big deal. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

City Council may add 17 properties Beacon is considering adding 17 properties near Main Street to the city's historic district. There are nearly 300 homes and structures in the district, which prevents them and neighboring buildings from being altered in a way that the city believes will harm their historic value. The district also has its own architectural and design standards — a sticking point for some homeowners who have said during public hearings that the rules are too restrictive, limiting choices on paint colors and other elements. On the flip side, historic structures are eligible to apply for special permits that allow uses associated with history, the arts or culture, such as hotels or other professional uses. Rose Hill Manor Day School, for example, at 1064 Wolcott Ave., is part of the historic district. The Planning Board is reviewing a proposal by the property owner to convert the historic buildings to an inn and restaurant, uses not normally allowed in its otherwise mostly residential zone. Restoration of properties in the historic district may also be eligible for tax exemptions and, in some cases, for historic preservation grants. The district is an overlay, meaning its restrictions can apply to any building. It was created in 1991; before the pandemic shutdown in 2020, the City Council held public hearings on 35 properties recommended for inclusion. In July 2021, council members voted to add six properties on or near Main Street. A month later, nine Main Street buildings were added. Of the 17 sites now being considered, 14 appear to be private homes. The Beacon Hebrew Alliance, at 331 Verplanck Ave., and St. Rocco Society, at 26 South Chestnut, are on the list, along with 17 Church St., which is owned by an LLC. On the List These buildings are being considered for inclusion in Beacon's Historic District. 9 Mattie Cooper Sq. 11 N. Elm St. 4 N. Elm St. 17 Church St. 27 Church St. 159 Fishkill Ave. 189 Fishkill Ave. 194 Fishkill Ave. 331 Verplanck Ave. 11 Digger Phelps Ct. 26 S. Chestnut St. 19 Commerce St. 11 Commerce St. 20 South Ave. 22 South Ave. 26 South Ave. 30 South Ave. The council can designate a site as part of the district because of distinguishing architectural features, cultural or aesthetic value or if it is eligible for the state or national registers of historic places. After a property has been officially nominated, the council must hold a public hearing and vote within 60 days. The owners of nominated buildings can request exclusion, but a supermajority of the council (five of its seven members) can overrule the objection. 248 Tioronda The City Council has begun its review of the amended concept plan for a partially completed development at 248 Tioronda Ave. In November, the City Council gave the developer the go-ahead to draft plans for two new residential buildings with 136 apartments, 27 of which will be offered at below-market rates. That was the trade-off required after Bernard Kohn, the developer, asked the city to allow him to build more apartments (64 have been completed) rather than a commercial building, which had been a condition of approval. If, after a public hearing, the council approves the amended concept plan, the Planning Board will review and vote to amend its approval of the project. Planning Board The Planning Board on Tuesday (Feb. 10) approved Stanza Books' application to construct a partially enclosed patio behind 425 Main St., the former Mase Hook & Ladder firehouse. There was no vote on the proposal to construct an addition onto the Telephone Building at 291 Main St.; the project attorney requested an adjournment because only five of seven board members were present. The board will hold a public hearing next month on an application to construct a 49-space parking lot and add five parking spaces to the employee lot east of Dia Beacon. The museum would also like to construct a 60-foot-by-70-foot storage building at the south end of the employee lot. Public hearings Th...
Rotating group performs monthly at Savage Wonder Scroll down the page of gig posters at the Jazzwomen! website and you'll notice Kim Peralta appears in each one. As the ensemble's founder and drummer, she's guaranteed a gig. "I formed the group so I could play with high-caliber musicians, which helps improve my playing," she says. "I book the dates and provide enough rhythmic reinforcement that they show up." Peralta has established a third Thursday residency at Savage Wonder in Beacon (the next one is Feb. 19) and will perform at Estilo Y Vino in May. The members are booked up for Women's History Month, so they're skipping the March date at Savage Wonder and will return on April 16. Peralta assembled a roster of 14 musicians, some of whom have played with Lionel Hampton, Dizzy Gillespie and Wynton Marsalis. Saxophonist Kate Anderson toured with The Temptations and The Four Tops and bass player Jennifer Vincent has performed with k.d. lang and Patti LaBelle. In addition to playing jazz piano, Heather Bennett is the organist and music director at a New Jersey church. Ellie Lee describes herself as a "bold, fiery artist" who "composes in a variety of styles, including jazz, classical, pop and gospel." Peralta began recruiting pianists, saxophonists and bass players in 2023. Sax whiz Jenny Hill adds flute to her arsenal, and Rachel Therrien, who has worked with Arturo O'Farrill, is the sole trumpeter. Peralta selects the lineups for each gig like a baseball manager. The basic combo is a piano trio (with bass and drums), though adding a saxophone expands the sonic palette; Therrien once rounded out a quintet. The players are so accomplished that Peralta needs only to compile a set list and, if necessary, provide lead sheets. As the exclamation point indicates, Jazzwomen! wants to make a statement. In addition to originals, the group performs compositions by Alice Coltrane and Dorothy Ashby. "Melba Liston played trombone with the best of them, and Mary Lou Williams wrote 500 songs," says Peralta, who referenced as inspiration the National Public Radio show, "Marian McPartland's Piano Jazz," which the English-born musician and educator hosted from 1978 to 2011. Now known as "Piano Jazz" (McPartland died in 2013), it is NPR's longest-running cultural program. The gig posters online also include likenesses of Mike Aiese, who does not match the profile. But Peralta notes that there is a general shortage of bass players, so he sat in at Savage Wonder last month and will do so again next week. At the January show, sax player Maria Lazzaro emitted a furious flurry of notes during "In a Mellow Tone," before displaying her tonal command with bluesy slurs that lifted the classic "On Green Dolphin Street." Pianist Janice Friedman played trills like a heavy metal guitarist. Performing together for the first time, the two musicians engaged in a gentle cutting contest. Often at jazz concerts, the bass player gets a break or two, but Aiese took flight on all but one tune. Peralta kept it simple on her compact kit. Even though Aiese walked, vamped and played solid solos, Peralto says she is always on the lookout to replace him, which he understands. "It's magical to perform with all women," she says. "It's hard to describe, but it's special." Savage Wonder is located at 139 Main St. in Beacon. The Feb. 19 performance, which begins at 8 p.m., is free, but tickets are required. See dub.sh/jazzwomen-2-19.

Jesus warns you can't measure someone's life by the things they own, though we often spend our whole lives in pursuit of more. Jesus warns it is foolish to only live for yourself, though we often spend our lives self-absorbed. Jesus' words to us today about greed and worry are a challenge to all of us no matter our income or station in life. His invitation to selflessness is ultimately a promise that leads to fullness and freedom.

John 2:12 reads: This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested forth his glory; and his disciples believed on him. The miracle of turning the water into wine was the beginning of miracles that were performed by Jesus. And John writes that they were manifested to display His glory. John has already told us in chapter John 1:14, And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.The entirety of the life of Jesus was lived to display not only His glory, but the glory of God, for the apostle Paul would write in 2 Cor 4:6 For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. So as we work our way through the gospel of John, not only the miracles, but every single aspect of the life of Jesus is meant to be a display of the glory of God.When John was baptizing in the Jordan, he was paving the way for Jesus, The Christ, and in doing so, fulfilling the words of the prophet Isaiah Isaiah 40:5 And the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it. In anticipation of His death on the cross, Jesus prayed in John 17:4 I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.From His incarnation to His ascension to the right hand of The Father, Jesus lived for the glory of God, and He said in John 15:8 Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples. How remarkable it is to think that The Father is glorified when you and I who belong to Jesus bear much fruit. (Read Matt 5:16!). Romans 1 tells us that when the glory that belongs to God alone is given over to the creature, the very motives of why we do what we do becomes disordered, disoriented and depraved. Sadly, this can happen and does happen not only in the world but inside and outside of the walls of the church.When the miracle of the new birth takes place, The Holy Spirit begins that life long work of changing us from glory to glory as we behold Jesus Christ (2 Cor 3:18). The apostle Peter writes,If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.My personal heart cry for myself and every reader and the writer of this devotional is found in Psalm115:1 Not unto us, O LORD, not unto us, but unto thy name give glory, for thy mercy, and for thy truth's sake.

Matcha Thomas and Nansense close Two restaurants in Beacon announced they are closing this month. Matcha Thomas, a teahouse that opened in May 2021 said that it will close its storefront at 179 Main St. on Feb. 15. Its owners, the Thomas family, said they plan to "transition into a fully mobile teahouse through our matcha cart." On Thursday (Feb. 5), Mohib Rahmati, the owner of Nansense Afghan Burgers and Bowls at 2 Eliza St. said it was his restaurant's last day in business. It opened in August 2024. Rahmati said he and his wife are starting a "new chapter" that requires relocation. Matcha Thomas was the distillation of years of activism and public speaking for Haile Thomas, then 20, her experience founding and running a nonprofit organization and the recipes from her cookbook Living Lively, published in 2019 by William Morrow. She was assisted by her mother, Charmaine, and sister, Nia. In 2020, the family, who lives in Chester, was picking up food from Isamu in Beacon and noticed a for-rent sign across the street and decided it was time to share what they've learned about the health benefits of matcha. "With our entire hearts, we thank you for all of your love, support and enjoyment of what we built in Beacon," the family wrote online. Nansense began as a food truck in New York City. In 2024, Rahmati and his wife, Komel, moved to Newburgh and began looking for a location for a storefront. "Thank you for the love, the loyalty, the conversations, the regular orders and for truly making this place feel like home," the couple wrote on Instagram. "As hard as this decision has been, it's the right one for our family. Beacon, you supported us from Day One, and we'll forever be grateful for that."

You can't be a suburb of nowhere.And that means that Downtowns are important to communities, including Louisville. Jeff O'Brien, executive director at the Louisville Metro Cabinet for Economic Development, made that point during Access Louisville: Heart of the City, a live event put on by Louisville Business First on Feb. 5 at the Baird Conference Center at 500 W. Jefferson Street. The event doubled as a live recording of the Access Louisville podcast. Lee Weyland, of Core Real Estate, Hank Hillebrand, of the Poe Cos., and Rebecca Fleischaker, of the Louisville Downtown Partnership were on the show as well. Louisville Business First Senior Reporter Joel Stinnett moderated the discussion.The panel spoke about the importance of development in Louisville's urban core, not just in downtown but also NuLu, Butchertown and elsewhere. It was a particularly timely discussion considering all the recent news on new developments.On Tuesday, Feb. 3, Louisville-based Poe Cos. announced it had officially signed a letter of intent to purchase the Humana Building at 500 W. Main St. and convert it into a 1,000-room hotel. (Business First exclusively reported Poe Cos. plans on Dec. 12.) And only a few weeks ago Business First reported that Indianapolis-based Ghoman Group has secured franchise approval to bring a JW Marriott hotel to the 26-story 401 S. 4th St. Tower — formerly the Brown & Williamson Tower — at 401 S. Fourth St.So we weren't short on things to talk about. Access Louisville is a weekly podcast from Louisville Business First.

Guy Davis to perform at Towne Crier in Beacon Guy Davis knows how to have fun. One of his favorite jokes as he tunes his guitar is, "Sorry, I'm having trouble with my G string." But once he sinks into a song, the room is transported. "Playing is a personal thing that hits my soul," he says. "The music takes me on a trip to the country, where there's rivers, grass, rocks, trees; come with me, and I'm a happier camper." Davis also travels back in time to a specific place, evoking the 1920s and 1930s Mississippi Delta blues and ragtime era, when guitarists mimicked the piano by playing multiple parts at a time using a thumb pick to drive the rhythm and either bare fingers or metal banjo picks to pluck the chords and melodic lines. "People watched Blind Blake play and asked him, 'Where's the other guy hiding?'" Davis says. The son of prominent actors and activists Ossie Davis and Ruby Dee — who befriended Pete Seeger during the Civil Rights era — Davis will bring a Towne Crier audience into the wilderness and back to the past on Feb. 15. Davis has done plenty of acting, including in the 1984 hip-hop film Beat Street, and in 2023 produced incidental music for the Broadway revival of his father's play Purlie Victorious, which received six Tony Award nominations. After hearing a didgeridoo in Australia, "I fell in love immediately," he says, and learned the circular breathing technique required to maintain the wind instrument's drone; the sound is like Tuvan throat singing. "It helps with my harmonica playing," says Davis, who squeezes out exquisite notes on the harp. Routinely covered by guitar media outlets, he also has two Grammy Award nominations. Although Davis gravitated toward acoustic blues and began recording regularly in 1993, he still tours while juggling acting gigs and other projects. Playing harmonica, putting a metallic slide on the ring finger of his left hand and using a 12-string guitar expand his sonic palette. The repertoire mixes originals and covers of the old-timers. His own work, delivered in a raspy voice, fits the period's vibe. Davis crossed paths with Pete Seeger as a kid at Camp Killooleep in Vermont, a magnet for the folk music community, and learned banjo from one of Seeger's brothers, John. "We lived in Mount Vernon and, one day, Pete was hanging out in our living room," he says. "When we moved to New Rochelle, there he was again." Davis often tagged along when his parents visited Beacon, picking out Leadbelly tunes and listening to recorded relics, some of which seeped into his playing style. "It was low-key; we weren't trying to accomplish anything," he says. "He influenced all the songs on my 1978 Folkways album Dreams About Life" and sang backup on one track. Davis sailed on the Clearwater, Woody Guthrie and Sojourner Truth many times. In the 1970s, he participated in fundraisers to finish the boats and often opened for the folk bard. "Once, in Poughkeepsie, we got there early and we were hanging out at a fountain," he says. "Soon enough, there's Pete with his pants rolled up, splashing around in the water, pushing the garbage to the side and getting all the kids in the area to take it away." After a 2019 concert in Albany, one newspaper reported that the bluesman had reflected Seeger's "greatest gift," which was not his singing or songwriting but "his ability to turn an audience of strangers into close friends by getting them to sing along. Davis had just accomplished the same thing." The Towne Crier is located at 379 Main St. in Beacon. Tickets for the Feb. 15 show, which begins at 7 p.m., are $25 online or $30 at the door.

Also updated: pedestrian suit and Beacon foreclosure A state judge has dismissed a Beacon business owner's lawsuit against his former landlord because of a technicality. Milan Nigam, the owner of Tito Santana Taqueria, filed suit in June, seeking at least $400,000 in damages. He alleged that Lindley Todd LLC failed to make required repairs to the restaurant at 142 Main St. before the City of Beacon shut it down in May for code violations. According to the lawsuit, Nigam "repeatedly" notified landlord Joe Donovan between 2022 — after Nigam bought the restaurant — and May 2025 of "sewage flooding the basement, rotten flooring and fire-panel faults." That month, the building department identified seven violations, including floor joists that, when viewed from the basement, showed "evidence of severe deterioration due to wood-boring insects." An engineer's evaluation and a building permit would be required before repairs, the department said. In July, Lindley Todd LLC asked Judge Christi Acker to dismiss the lawsuit. The company said that six of the seven violations cited by the city were due to Nigam's "actions or inactions in violation of the lease." Acker dismissed the suit on Jan. 28, ruling that Lindley Todd was not properly served with the summons and complaint. According to court documents, the papers were served by hand to Sean Noble, a Lindley Todd property manager, on July 7 at 134 Main St. While Lindley Todd owns 134 Main and employs Noble, he is not a member of the LLC and was not authorized to act as a manager within the context of state law, Acker ruled. Pedestrian death Attorneys for the City of Beacon on Jan. 28 filed their opposition to a request for Acker to reconsider her dismissal of a lawsuit filed by the family of a resident who died after being struck in a Main Street crosswalk. The family of Carla Giuffrida, who was hit in December 2021 at the intersection with Teller Avenue, filed a lawsuit in 2023 against the driver, Jacqueline Milohnic, and her husband (who owned the car), the city and Kearns Electric, the company that services Beacon's pedestrian signals. On Dec. 10, Acker dismissed the suit against the city and Kearns. Giuffrida's adult children, Lindsay and Mauro, asked Acker to "renew" her decision, citing the city's installation of a leading pedestrian interval at the intersection as evidence that Beacon officials knew the roadway was dangerous. They also said city attorneys had not disclosed the installation of an LPI before Acker's ruling. In materials submitted in January, Beacon's attorneys called the Giuffridas' request "a legal, factual, procedural and logical impossibility" since the family did not present any new facts challenging Acker's decision to grant summary judgment. Instead, the only "new fact" involves the use of the LPI, which city attorneys said Acker found to be irrelevant because its absence was not the primary cause of the accident. If installation of an LPI four years after the accident proves responsibility, "no defendant would make any changes to a site after an accident if such measures would result in liability," the attorneys said. An expert who submitted testimony for the Giuffrida family failed to explain how installation of an LPI "would have prevented an accident in which a driver was blinded by sun glare and a pedestrian crossed with a red pedestrian signal," they argued. Mews foreclosure The Mews at Beacon, a partially constructed condominium complex at 53 Eliza St., will be auctioned on Feb. 13 at the Dutchess County Courthouse in Poughkeepsie. A state judge granted Insula Capital Group's request for summary judgment in August and appointed an attorney to determine the amount due and whether the property could be sold. The attorney filed a report in October stating that the developer, Qele "Charlie" Qelaj, owes Insula $5.97 million plus costs and interest.
Hey hey BATT Family! Episode 31 is here for your auditory enjoyment. This one is another episode that we had way too much fun recording. We are lucky enough to be joined by D. Brad Talton, President and Owner of Level 99 Games, on the show this time around. What you are hearing is a much smaller subset of the conversations that we had with him because we got pretty deep into the inside baseball of the industry and how things get done. While it was fascinating for us, we thought it might be less so for the general audience, but what remained is still a really fun, compelling conversation I think. In addition to having Brad on, we also had the infamous Jen join us for the first time someone else hit us with a Why Did We Play That. It's a wild episode and, unsurprisingly, it was another bear to edit through but I'm very proud of what we have here. It's also the biggest single episode I've had to edit - the raw file was almost four hours long because we just kept talking and having a good time. So apologies for this one running longer than normal, but it's already pretty solidly condensed from multiple editing passes.The next thing you'll hear from us is our next live episode, recorded in front of an audience at PopiCon 2026! Let us know what you think of this episode when you're done with it, go check out some of L99's sick looking Gamefound campaigns, and we'll catch you on the next one! --- This episode's segments: 00:00:00 - Intro 00:03:30 - What's Been on the Table 00:11:52 - Topic of the Week: Level 99 Games 00:29:10 - Grand Gamers Guild Sponsor 00:30:40 - Why Did I Play That: Le Plateau 00:45:10 - Table / Shelf / Trade 01:15:49 - Rotating Segment: Visions of the Future 01:23:06 - Secret Door Sponsor 01:23:58 - Meeple Source Sponsor 01:25:01 - Victory Roll Sponsor 01:25:51 - Contact Info for BATT and Theater Geeks 01:27:03 - Level 99 Upcoming Games / Outro --- Notes! 1) Just listening back to this episode, it was a sheer joy to do so. I hope you have as much fun listening to it as it was both the first and second (and third and fourth and etc...) times for me. 2) So if you've seen Mark's Top 100 you know that Bullet ended up at number 4 on the list, not number 3. The joy of jostling numbers right before the end of the year. But I mean, really, it's a top five game and it's incredible regardless. 3) Sorry for the kind of awkward end to Scott's TST for 7 Wonders Dice - that's just how it ended on the recording. None of the rest of us had played it and didn't have much else to say. 4) I have since played Toy Battle and really, really enjoy it. I expect to also be talking about it during an upcoming episode because of just how utterly replayable it is. 5) Mark backed Decko after talking with Brad. Really looking forward to that one. --- We'd like to thank our sponsors as well: Grand Gamers Guild! https://grandgamersguild.com.

It goes without saying that God blesses His people abundantly above and beyond anything that we could ever ask, think or dream of. Looking at the promises and prophecies of God that are given unto His children through faith in Jesus Christ are stunning. But there is one word in the Psalms that I'd like to pass along to you as we prepare our hearts and come to the Lord's Supper together. That one word is: “benefits”. Read each one of these slowly. Prayerfully. Hear God Himself speaking to your heart. The first one is Psalm 68:19 Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvation. Selah. The God of our salvation daily loads us with benefits. Salvation in and of itself is the one gift that should be enough, but God loads us with benefits, plural. Some translations say that day after day, God bears our burdens. Think about all the benefits and burdens that Jesus has blessed you with. Praise Him right now for the benefits that He has blessed you with and the burdens that He has lifted from you.Secondly, Psalm 103:1 Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name. 103:2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits: 103:3 Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases; 103:4 Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies; 103:5 Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle's. Remarkable! The top of this list of benefits is forgiveness. But that is not all. Think of all the times that God has healed you. Think of all the times, BC and AD that God has stepped in to deliver us from destruction. By grace through faith in Christ, He has crowned you and I with lovingkindness and tender mercies. He moment by moment satisfies our souls and renews us with youth like strength.Third and lastly, Psalm 116:12 What shall I render unto the LORD for all his benefits toward me? 116:13 I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the LORD. I like to think of these verses at times when I pick up the communion cup and call upon His Name, Jesus or Yeshua, which means, God is my salvation. What can I and my precious brothers and sisters in Jesus Christ say this morning all that you have done for me? What can we say when we read in Revelation 21,22 about that glorious heavenly city that you have prepared for us? Lord Jesus, You and You alone ARE the Benefit from God that we long for, desire and remember today.Blessed be Your glorious Name.

It's a reunion show as Al, Gemini, Rich and Andrew all gather for pizza at How Ya Dough'n, the new joint atop the new BLVD shopping and eating venue on The Strip right across from City Center. We talk to GM Vince Lawrence about the small pizza chain's first expansion outside its home base of Miami. The episode was recorded the day after we all gathered at the new Ada's in the Arts District, where we ate through most of the menu. Al shares more about the Hell's Kitchen watch party at Main St. Provisions, and the celebration of Chef Ellie Parker's victory. Plus a Happy Hour Report and lots of other restaurant reports.
Jesus reminds his friends we are all susceptible to hypocrisy. It's the kind of poison that corrupts our souls. It makes us callous to the compassion of Jesus, judgmental of those desperate for care and, and closes us off from love. Today we explore Jesus' sobering metaphor about a dirty cup and what it means to live a sincere life, to be people of integrity and honesty in a cultural moment dominated by confusion and falsehood.

Hey hey BATT Family! Sorry to overload you with top ten lists recently, but here is Episode 30! As it's a multiple of five it is a top ten list and this week's episode is about Simultaneous Action games. This was recorded at Gen Con on July 30th, 2025 in the BATT hotel room, so it's a bit more echoey than usual. This topic was brought by the guest of the show, Derian, who has been a good friend of ours for years and runs all of the demo tables at Gen Con. If you've ever seen the dude wearing a bright orange shirt, a mohawk, and a utilikilt - that's our boy. We cover some really great games here and even had a couple (big ones) that were forgotten off of some of the lists. Give it a go, let us know what you think and we'll see you in two weeks with Episode 31 where we have the president of Level 99 Games on with us! --- This episode's segments: 00:00:00 - Intro / How We Know Each Other 00:02:18 - History / List Selection Criteria 00:07:23 - Scott's 10 (Broom Service) 00:10:13 - Derian's 10 (Broom Service) 00:12:15 - Mark's 10 (Smartphone, Inc.) 00:14:40 - Scott's 9 (Apples to Apples) 00:15:45 - Derian's 9 (Quacks of Quedlinberg) 00:18:00 - Mark's 9 (Raptor) 00:20:15 - Scott's 8 (7 Wonders) 00:23:46 - Derian's 8 (Niagara) 00:26:02 - Mark's 8 (Hadara) 00:28:32 - Scott's 7 (Get Bit) 00:31:36 - Derian's 7 (7 Wonders) 00:32:14 - Mark's 7 (Terraforming Mars: Ares Expedition) 00:35:19 - Scott's 6 (Bezzerwizzer) 00:37:00 - Derian's 6 (Roll for the Galaxy) 00:38:44 - Mark's 6 (Faraway) 00:40:17 - Grand Gamer's Guild Sponsor 00:41:33 - Scott's 5 (Gloomhaven / Frosthaven) 00:43:16 - Derian's 5 (Between Two Cities) 00:45:10 - Mark's 5 (Antidote) 00:47:32 - Scott's 4 (Planet Unknown) 00:48:50 - Derian's 4 (On Tour) 00:50:36 - Mark's 4 (Incan Gold) 00:51:42 - Scott's 3 (Antidote) 00:52:24 - Derian's 3 (Libertalia: Winds of Galecrest) 00:53:30 - Mark's 3 (Tidal Blades: Banner Festival) 00:55:05 - Scott's 2 (On Tour) 00:56:46 - Derian's 2 (Orleans) 01:01:04 - Mark's 2 (El Grande) 01:04:02 - Scott's 1 (Bullet) 01:06:37 - Derian's 1 (Race for the Galaxy) 01:10:27 - Mark's 1 (Libertalia: Winds of Galecrest) 01:15:29 - Secret Door Sponsor 01:16:20 - Meeple Source Sponsor 01:17:23 - Victory Roll Sponsor 01:18:14 - Contact Info for BATT and Theater Geeks 01:19:25 - Outro --- Notes! 1) Scott's lead in on his number 10 is something that was referrenced in the Honorable Mentions! That'll be out with an Odds and Ends episode eventually. 2) In regards to El Grande, because the way Derian jumped in I didn't really fully explain why I picked it. The simultaneous selection is admittedly not that high here (really only during the scoring phases) but I find it to be so radically important to the game that it had to be that high. Realistically I should have had this probably a bit lower on the list, and it definitely would have been bounced lower as Bullet should have been my number 2, but I still like the game quite a bit and think it deserves to be here. 3) One other thing I found interesting listening to this episode back to back with our recent Top of 2025 lists is how consistent some of these opinions are. We played an enormous amount of games in the five months between these three recordings and we still managed to feel the way we did in both periods. Apologies for these being so close together though, the intent is that we'd actually start 2026 with Episode 31 but my schedule just got delayed significantly over the past few weeks and the edits just fell behind. So that's why they've lined up the way they have. 4) Libby scored 52 points as recorded, not 56. But I looked over the photo and found that she accidentally cheated and connected a 74 to a 73 in the South. Whoops. 50 points is still insane though.

Many of the resolutions and aspirations set this time of year are born out of a place of not enough, and the general tone around January sounds like striving, and pushing, and straining. Is there another way to approach the new year that doesn't expect so much try-harder energy? We look this morning to the famous story of Jesus feeding the 5,000 for the answer.

DHPOD Episode 2: Listening Now (body awareness practice and guided meditation)If you're just starting to listen to your body, it's gonna hurt. Why? Because your body has been trying to get your attention, crying out in pain or numbing out in helplessness. The first thing you'll hear, when you start listening, might be aaaaaaaallll that pain at once. It takes strength and patience to face that pain, and hear it, and feel it, and keep coming back. So this is a practice to build your strength, to start with acknowledging the pain, and to not shame yourself for how hard it all is.Join me for a gentle, guided meditation to connect with your body, tune in to what it needs, and tend to those needs as best you can. This practice is all about expanding your awareness and beginning to cultivate a kinder relationship with your body.As with any Drawing Health practice, get comfortable, take what feels good and supportive for you, and leave what doesn't. Reflection questions:- What is one small action you can take, in this moment, to tend to your physical needs?- How does it feel to tune in to your body's signals? - Did you notice any changes—physical, mental, emotional—while listening to this meditation, or after?Get comfortable. Really, really cozy. Don't hold back on comfort now — it's your first resource of strength to face the discomfort of feeling.=If you loved listening to this episode, or if it stirred something new in you, I'd love you to leave us a review. Sharing your experiences is a gift to yourself and others, and definitely me. I love learning how my offerings land in other people, and it really helps the show to find those who need it.

Many of us approach the end of this season feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, and defeated from the endless tug of war on our attention the holidays seem to demand. We believe Christmas has something to say to our striving, something to offer our overwhelm and the invisible burdens we all carry during this time of year and every other day of the year too. The invitation of Christmas is to behold – this kind of focusing, this narrowing our attention, this drawing near to marvel at the miracle of God with us. This message is from our Sunday morning Christmas service on December 21st, 2025.We meet at The Simon (957 Main St., Louisville, CO 80027) on Sunday mornings at 10am.There will be NO SERVICE on Sunday, December 28th. We will resume on January 4th, 2026! Connect with us:kindredchurch.co@kindredchurch.cofacebook.com/kindredchurch.co

Tom Hart and I have been working together for years, and as Founder and Director at SAW, Tom is the reason this podcast exists at all. What better way to start than to hear us in conversation, as we often are, but with microphones this time, discussing what Drawing Health, and our passion in graphic medicine, is all about.Topics include: Can comics heal? Do I hate making comics? What if I don't understand what's happening in my body? What if I draw the feeling? Drawing, sudden death, disability, capitalism's grind, the importance of noticing our health when it's GOOD, and more.Reflection questions:* What is YOUR definition of health?* What would it be like for you to draw with some simple constraints?* Are you interested in learning more about graphic medicine, with support?Episode links!SAW's website: www.sequentialartistsworkshop.org Tom's favourite book: https://bookshop.org/p/books/blossoms-and-bones-drawing-a-life-back-together-kim-krans Georgia's book, Dumb: Living without a Voice: https://www.fantagraphics.com/products/dumb Graphic Medicine Summit 2025 Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL6nZBKexfhvvSR2esA0uDSgCPCPRXSFXnMaureen Burdock's Graphic Medicine Deep Dive course: https://www.sequentialartistsworkshop.org/graphic-medicine-deep-dive-with-maureen-burdock Graphic Memoir & Medicine Working Group: https://www.sequentialartistsworkshop.org/memoir-medicine-groupMusic acknowledgementOur theme music is Magic Hours by Aaron Comeau made for the Main St. Music Library.

A deal that would see the Humana Building, at 500 W. Main Street, redeveloped as a large hotel, seems to be cooking behind the scenes.LBF Senior Reporter Joel Stinnett broke the story recently and joins us on the Access Louisville podcast to tell us about what he's learned. As reported on Dec. 12, Louisville-based Poe Cos. is in the planning stages to convert the 26-story Humana Building into a 1,000-room hotel, according to multiple sources familiar with the project. The tower is located at 500 W. Main St., near Louisville's Belvedere, Museum Row and the KFC Yum Center. To reach 1,000 rooms, an additional tower may be constructed behind the existing tower, near or where The Exchange office space and Vincenzo's restaurant now sit, according to at least one source. The existing tower would be converted to house the majority of the rooms, the sources said.On the show, Stinnett tells us how his reporting on the matter came together, other projects the Poe Cos. has in the works and what the needs look like with hotels in Downtown Louisville. We also go over what might happened next. Later in the show we chat about the landscape for electric vehicles going forward. This is in the wake of the news that Ford is pulling back on EV plans, dissolving its battery manufacturing venture with SK On (called BlueOvalSK) and repurposing its recently opened battery manufacturing facility in Glendale, Kentucky. As part of the repurposing, BlueOvalSK is laying off all its Glendale workers. A Ford subsidiary plans to takeover the plant and repurpose it for battery energy storage. It's a complicated situation for the automaker being as it just announced a new manufacturing platform at Louisville Assembly Plant in August in support of a new midsize EV pickup truck with a $30,000 price tag (low for the EV market.) Plans for that truck are still on, Ford says.Access Louisville is a weekly podcast from Louisville Business First. You can follow it on popular podcast services including Apple Podcasts and Spotify.
Peace is something we all crave, but it often feels elusive and short-lived. This week's passage invites us to reimagine peace not as a sense of calm or tranquility, but as a revolution of the heart and an invitation to the humble way of Jesus that opposes the arrogant, rejects violence, and redefines the "rich".

Welcome to Why Music Matters, a podcast where we examine the power and influence that music can wield in our lives. I'm your host, Jeff Miers. Today, my guest is Evan Laedke, a musician with an impressively broad skill-set, one that has made him a first-call keyboardist for a wide variety of WNY bands, one-off gigs and sessions. Currently playing keys for Tsavo Highway, the Little Mountain Band, and others, Evan somehow found time in his busy schedule to take on the role of Music Director at Third Space, a 4,000 sq. foot, 2-story cafe, art gallery and entertainment space. Evan and his partner, owner Chelsea Mae, opened their ‘dream come true' in the historic Sidway Building at 777 Main St. in Buffalo, last December. In the time since, he's poured his considerable passion for our city's music scene into making Third Space into a home-away-from home for regional artists, bands, poets and comedians. During our chat, Evan told me about his life in music, his early inspirations, and his hopes for Third Space going forward.

This is our first week in our Advent series as we anticipate the coming of Jesus, celebrated at Christmas. Waiting tends to bring out the worst in us. It makes us anxious, irritable, and mean. Advent invites us to reimagine our waiting – it offers us a different perspective that waiting doesn't have to end with the worst in us, but that God can use waiting to form the best in us. This message is from our Sunday morning service on November 30th, 2025.We meet at The Simon (957 Main St., Louisville, CO 80027) on Sunday mornings at 10am.Christmas Services this year will be on Sunday, December 21st at 9:30am & 11am. *Kindred Kids will only be offered at the 9:30am service time.

A rookie FBI agent is swept up in a case that goes from Main St, USA, to the UK, Ukraine and Russia. Cyber-crime victims are everywhere. This is way bigger than Jim Craig thought. He travels to Ukraine to meet his counterparts. Over vodka and fine food in a dacha in the Ukrainian forest, they make a plan to go after the suspected cyber hackers.Hosted by Joe Tidy, the BBC's cyber correspondent – one of the few Western journalists to have met an alleged member of Evil Corp – and the BBC's Sarah Rainsford, who spent more than two decades reporting from Moscow.
