And, no, I’m not making that up. There actually is such a thing as “mini-med school,” at least if you believe the brilliant scientific minds at Harvard Medical School in Boston (and who, pray tell, wouldn’t?).
Amazingly, the seminars offered at mini-med school are available to the general public … free of charge. That’s […]

On Friday, February 15, I wrote about Academy Award-winning actor Christopher Walken’s trip to Cambridge to receive his Hasty Pudding Theatrical honor as 2008 Man of the Year.

…and all the President got was a huge crowd, lots of good-natured laughter, and a supercool custom team jersey with his name and a number on it.
Earlier today, the Boston Red Sox made their second trip to the George Bush-helmed White House as World Series champs. The first time they visited the United States’ […]

Heck, until recently, neither had I. But, now that I am aware of the ambitious venture and its creators, I won’t forget them anytime soon […]

Boston’s Museum of Fine Arts (Avenue of the Arts, 465 Huntington Avenue, Boston, 617-267-9300) definitely knew what it was doing when it decided to host the Walk This Way exhibit — there are few things that many women (and I’m guessing some men) love more than shoes.

Like fish, and not just or necessarily to eat? Two popular Boston destinations are currently screening films capable of giving viewers an extra-special underwater nature experience.
And, these aren’t the run-of-the-mill, humdrum movies already available at the local theater either. The New England Aquarium and Museum of Science are going grand instead, serving up […]

Here’s an event that’s worth attending, even if you’re not really into books or libraries — the “fascinating” factor alone is a sufficient draw. Tonight at 7:30pm EST, Sophie Freud, the granddaughter of renowned and still influential Austrian psychiatrist Sigmund Freud, will make an appearance at Waltham Public Library (735 Main Street, Waltham, 781-314-3425).

If you recall, back on January 12th, intrepid commuters in Boston took to the subways and dropped their pants, all for the sake of the city’s first ever No Pants! Subway Ride. The historic stunt had been out of the news for a while, but it resurfaced this past Sunday when Boston Globe writer […]
