Stop throwing out lit cigarettes, thank you very mulch
By adamg - 5/15/07 - 9:47 amMemo to clueless smokers: If you dispose of lit cigarettes in planters these days, there's a good chance you'll burn down Harvard Square. So just cut it out.

Galluccio won't face drunk-driving charges
By adamg - 4/28/06 - 5:39 pmBlue Mass. Group has the scoop on a Boston clerk magistrate finding no probable cause to send Galluccio's case to a jury - along with comments from Ed Prisby, a Boston lawyer involved in that four-car accident with the Cambridge city councilor back in December. Prisby testified at the hearing today and is not happy:
...[W]hat I find astounding is that the clerk magistrate made actual FINDINGS OF FACT (reserved exclusively for a jury) when he ruled in Galluccio's favor, stating that he believed that Galluccio had consumed some alcohol that night, but not enough to impair him.
That is, quite frankly, unbelievable and completely inappropriate. Our system is designed to prevent one man from making a determination behind closed doors as to guilt or innocence. ...
So look for Galluccio to continue his bid for a state senate seat despite incumbent Jarrett Barrios running again.

By adamg - 4/5/06 - 9:09 amNo, we're not talking about commuters coming out of the Davis T stop. It's time for the second annual Zombie March:
We are the undead and we are here to eat brains. Or at least march past your apartment at a painstakingly slow lurch. On Saturday, April 29, dozens of the undead will convene to march, lurch, breakdance and shuffle down Mass. Ave., all in the name of a good time. ...
Pre-school architecture critics
By adamg - 3/22/05 - 10:11 pmEzra reads a Cambridge Chronicle article about pre-schoolers (yep) defending the looks of MIT's Stata Center (that Gehry building). Ezra, who works across the street from the building, addresses one of the tykes:
... You are wrong, young Ben Donaldson, the Stata Center is actually very ugly.
