David runs down all the Chinese restaurants within three miles of Out of Town News, finds all of them lacking. Mary Chung, he notes, is just outside his Circle of Desolation:

It's 3.2 miles along Mass Ave - give or take – between Mary Chung and Qing Dao Garden, and as far as I'm concerned, there’s not much to eat Chinese-wise along that strip, which encompasses three of the major squares of Cambridge. Sort of disgraceful, don't you think? ...

Kate Mitchell was in Harvard Square on Saturday when, for some reason, "Friday Night Lights," which is about Texas high-school football, decided to film a scene there. Star Aimee Teegarden (r.), graciously gives out extra 'e's to fans, with the assistance of co-star Connie Britton.

Kaitlin posts about how she became an extra in the scene and has more photos (via Beantown Bloggery).
