- The Four Firkins. [1] Minnesota’s first specialty beer store opens Saturday in SLP. Grand Opening on June 14. (via east-lake [2] and MN Beer [3])
- “The Neighborhood Energy Connection [4] (NEC) (formerly the Saint Paul Neighborhood Energy Consortium) is a nonprofit organization that provides energy efficiency information, services and programs to residents, businesses, and communities across Minnesota.” They provide a lot of info, connect you to a lot of resources, and also provide some for-pay services.
- NextStep [5]: “This site has been designed to provide Minnesota Sustainable Communities Network (MnSCN) members and others with information, access to resources, opportunities for networking, and inspiration on the topic of sustainable communities. NextStep site users have the ability to post information and resources on the site as well as to access the resources and information posted on the site.” Great event listing. Sortable by regions around the state.
- The Sibley Bike Depot [6] is “a non-profit membership-based biking and walking organization. We promote healthy transportation and help new riders through advocacy, classes and the Sibley Bike Depot (a community education, repair and retail facility).” Located at 712 University Ave in St Paul. They have a pretty cool Earn-A-Bike program [7].
- Matt [8] and Colin [9] are filling in for Taylor at Mediation [10] this week. Matt starts off with a self-pimp of a legislative session wrap up [11]. “If you are a lunch room lady…
- Citizen-penned marriage equality bill introduced in Minnesota legislature. [12] “The bill is modeled after a similar bill that has passed the California Legislature twice, only to be vetoed by Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger. Schwarzenegger said that the issue was for the courts to decide — and they did.”
- Bob Collins is a Lynx fan! [13] Sunday afternoon’s home opener was a stellar display [14]. Only one game, yes, but the win over Detroit (three Eastern Conference championships in a row) bodes well for the team’s 10th season. I had courtside seats!
- The Uptake on the RNC media walk through. [15]
