Dinner at Lock 27 – Centerville, OH

lock 27

I was pretty excited to revisit Lock 27 because this place is amazing.  This time we brought a crowd and big appetites!

This time I tried a lemon drop martini (made with Belle of Dayton vodka!) and it really hit the spot – there’s nothing like lemon drinks in the heat of summer.

Have you tried their hummus?  I’m pretty sure it has as many jalapenos as chickpeas – so it goes without saying that I LOVED it.  I also loved that it came with tons of veggies and a variety of things to dip – not just one type of thing.  It seems like most places bring you a ton of hummus and then only one thing to eat it with.  Variety is the spice of life.  Variety and jalapenos, that is.

Next I tried a flight of beers – I loved all of them, which is no surprise since Lock 27 brews their own amazing beer in house.

Dinner was easy because they had mac & cheese – when I’m in a comfort food mood, nothing else compares.

I’m so glad that we were able to get a fun group together to visit this super popular and delicious gastro pub!

Marquette U. Poll of Wisconsinites: 39% approve of job Walker is doing as Guv, 57% disapprove

The most significant bit of news in this poll, in my opinion, is the fact that Wisconsinites are taking a dim view of Scott Walker’s performance. His 39% “job approval” rating is down 2 points from where it was in April when 41% approved of his performance as Governor. Walker’s doing much worse than Obama more »

iOS retains the top spot in the enterprise tablet market, but Android is closing the gap

iOS saw its market share drop from 81% to 64% in the tablet market, a sharp decline from the iPad's previous 80% to 90% dominance in the enterprise, while Android grew from 15% to 25% during the second quarter. Windows rose from 4% to 11%, a notable increase given that Microsoft's operating system represented just 1% market share two quarters ago.

iOS continued to lead in regulated industries, including the public sector (79%), education (76%), healthcare (70%), insurance (65%) and financial services (63%). Meanwhile, Android moved ahead of iOS in the high-tech sector with 53% of device activations and also experienced growth in the energy (48%) and manufacturing (42%) sectors.

Good Technology's data is based on monthly activations among all its global customers that had at least five activated devices during the second quarter. The full-length Mobility Index Report Q2 2015 offers detailed insight on app, platform and device preferences among enterprise users.

Milwaukee Bucks arena is product of bizarre and bipartisan bedfellows

It takes an incestuous bipartisan pile of snakes to foist this expense upon Wisconsin when only 9%* of the Wisconsin public wants to help fund it AND when the administration is slashing public education funding. Steve Horn and Michael Arria have a long and interesting piece out on Truthdig that exposes backroom bipartisanship and public more »
