The Art of Beer and Cheese Pairing: An Indian Flavour Harmony
Last Updated: Beer and cheese or cheese snack pairing in India is a celebration of flavour, texture, and camaraderie With today being National Cheese Day, it's time to raise a glass and celebrate the delightful union of beer and cheese: a pairing that's gaining traction in India for its unique flavors and cultural resonance. Picture this: the clinking of glasses, the enticing aroma of freshly made paneer tikka, and the lively banter of friends. These elements create the perfect backdrop for enjoying this unlikely duo, united by their shared roots in the ancient art of fermentation. Both beer and cheese are products of this transformative process, resulting in complex flavor profiles that beautifully intertwine and elevate each other. With India's diverse range of beer styles—from crisp lagers to hoppy Indian Pale Ales (IPAs)—the possibilities for pairing are endless. This National Cheese Day, embark on your own flavour adventure with these expert pairing suggestions: IPA & Spicy Paneer Tikka: The assertive bitterness of an IPA acts as a counterpoint to the richness and spice of the paneer tikka. The hops—often with citrusy, floral, or tropical fruit notes—complement the complex flavors of the marinade, typically made with ginger, garlic, chilies, and aromatic spices. The IPA's carbonation also helps cleanse the palate between bites, cutting through the paneer's creaminess. Stout & Smoked Cheddar: The robust, roasted malt flavors of a stout form a perfect alliance with the smoky intensity of smoked cheddar. The stout's rich notes of coffee, chocolate, or dark fruits add a layered complexity that complements the cheese's bold character. Choose a dry Irish stout for contrast or a sweeter milk stout for a creamy companion. Wheat Beer & Kalakand: The light, refreshing nature of wheat beer—often brewed with spices like coriander and orange peel—pairs delicately with the dense, milky sweetness of kalakand. The beer's subtle fruitiness enhances the dessert without overpowering it, while its carbonation offers a refreshing contrast to the smooth, melt-in-your-mouth texture. Try a Belgian witbier or a German hefeweizen. Pilsner & Vegetable Pakoda: The light, crisp, and subtly bitter character of a pilsner provides a refreshing counterpoint to the fried, savory, and often spicy vegetable pakoda. Its clean finish washes away the oiliness, preparing your palate for the next bite. The pilsner's slight bitterness also pairs nicely with the spices in the batter. Beer and cheese or cheese snack pairing in India is a celebration of flavour, texture, and camaraderie. So, gather your friends, pick your cheeses and snacks, and pour your beers. With a little experimentation and a spirit of mindful enjoyment, you'll discover a world of delicious possibilities. Cheers to the art of pairing: Indian style!

Provo man charged with threat of terrorism after allegedly threatening to blow up Missionary Training Center
Charges are allegations only. All arrested persons are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. PROVO, Utah () — A Provo man who allegedly threatened to blow up the Missionary Training Center was charged Tuesday with threat of terrorism. Anthony Hambleton Beardall, 49, was charged with one count of threat of terrorism, a second degree felony, and one count of electronic communication harassment, a misdemeanor. On April 24, 2024, Beardall allegedly called the BYU information center and threatened to blow up the Missionary Training Center. According to court documents, he told the person on the phone, 'You better shut down the [Missionary Training Center], or we're going to blow [it] out of the water, baby.'

It's a lie,' and told the operator, and presumably the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, to stop pushing their beliefs on the world. Additionally, Beardall allegedly claimed that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints would be 'shut down in Israel pretty soon,' and that the Church could no longer send out missionaries in the United States. Police said he called the information line at least 10 times that day, repeating that the MTC needed to be shut down and calling phone operators 'profane and offensive names.' According to court records, Beardall has a history of being charged with stalking, violating a protective order, and harassment.

Weber County establishes first veteran treatment court in northern Utah
WEBER COUNTY, Utah () — Weber County announced that it is establishing the 2nd District Veteran Court, the first veteran treatment court in northern Utah, which will serve veterans in Davis, Morgan and Weber Counties. A veteran treatment court (VTC) is a specialized court that is meant to help veterans with mental health and substance abuse issues who become involved in the criminal justice system. These are courts designed to help veterans who received honorable or general discharges through evidence-based approaches that 'focus on treatment and support, rather than punishment,' with the goal of helping veterans stay sober, recover, and achieve long-term stability, according to a press release from Weber County. They can also help veterans with housing and employment issues. Jim Retallick, Director of the Weber Public Defender Group, has been working to establish the Second District VTC since the fall of 2023. In an interview with Retallick said that veterans are more likely to be involved in the justice system. He added that about a third of veterans have been arrested compared to only a fifth of the general population. 'Veterans also face some specific and different issues and problems, but using the commonality, probably the base rock of being a veteran, they're able to respond better to treatment,' Retallick said. Passenger with measles travels through SLC airport, determined low risk for spread Veteran treatment courts have been proven to reduce re-offending rates among veterans. Retallick cited studies that show only 14% of veterans in veteran treatment courts re-offend, whereas recidivism rates for veterans in traditional courts range from 23% to 46%. According to Retallick, the court provides treatment that the veterans earned through their military service, and Veteran's Affairs works with the VTC to provide treatment. Retallick said that the greatest part of the VTC is the mentor program. 'We have a mentor coordinator who is a veteran, and he coordinates other volunteer veterans who will mentor every participant in the program,' Retallick said. 'So hopefully everybody is matched up with a veteran who understands their needs and will help them proceed through the process.' 'You can't force anybody to succeed, but you can point them and get them on the path and provide them the support to help them succeed,' Retallick said. The VTC in Weber County will join other VTCs in Salt Lake County and Utah County in providing support to Utah's veterans.
