Nstar response time

[everose.livejournal.com]

This is more of a general question, but how responsive is Nstar usually when your heat stops working? Our gas heat just stopped for some reason today, and my landlord is calling Nstar. I'm wondering if they'll get someone out here soon, or if people have had problems with them taking a long time to respond.

Valentine's Weekend Puppetry/Chocolate-Tasting Extravaganza

[oakenguy.livejournal.com]

Willoughby and Baltic, Somerville's greatest Czech-style Marionette Theater and Art Gallery, is about to become Somerville's greatest Czech-style Marionette Theater, Art Gallery, and Chocolateria!

The kickoff of this bizarre-yet-savory blend of puppetry and gourmet chocolate is a weekend-long Valentines-themed Chocolate Tasting on February 10th and 11th. From wafer-scroll cookies with love poetry inside to chocolate hearts that are dark, bitter and broken, we have a holiday dessert to suit every mood. That’s on top of our normal offerings: kahlua cheesecakes, cappuccino brownies, 7 types of gourmet truffles (including vegan!), and much, much more.

As for puppets, appearing in the "Teeny Lounge" will be the musical stylings of Swanky Franky Velvet. Mr. Velvet brings his show direct from Vegas, and will perform his musical stylings while you sample our fine confections.

The chocolate bar will be open from 5-10pm. Each ticket entitles you to sample one dessert, and proceeds from this event help support the Marionette Theater. Tickets cost $2.50 each, and you can purchase as many or as few tickets as you wish. Tickets purchased that aren't used during the tasting can be used toward chocolates or puppet tickets at any time in the future.

Swanky Franky Velvet will be performing from 8-10pm .

Dates: Saturday, Feb. 10th and Sunday, Feb. 11th, at Willoughby and Baltic, 195g Elm Street in beautiful Davis Square. We welcome the GLBT community.
