composted manure?

[ceelove.livejournal.com]

I'm looking for organic composted manure in bulk. Anyone use a CSA that might have such a thing? I'm certainly willing to drive out and bring it back in big trashcans, but I have no idea where to start looking.

gunshots - davis sq?

ok, so last night i couldn't fall asleep and maybe a few minutes before 3am i heard what i think might have been 3 shots fired...does anyone know anything about this?   it was really loud.  i waited and didn't hear any sound after...no yelling, no sirens.  i'm not sure if it occured on my street or a block or 2 over or if it was anything at all.  it would have been somewhere around simpson, irving and wallace.
 
it was scary, but hopefully it was nothing.  thanks in advance if you have any info about this.   

Hear the City as a Symphony

This is unexpectedly cool. I'd seen this weird contraption up on the top of Tuft's Tisch library, partially assembled, and wondered what it was.

It's an interactive sound installation using the noises of the city to make music.

bike commuting from Davis to Waltham

[happyok.livejournal.com]

Hey guys!

There have been a couple of posts about bike commuting, thought I'd see if anyone rides from Davis to the Waltham area. I have done it a few time in the past weeks, and it might be fun to have a partner. I pretty much am on Rt 60 the whole way...

It's a great ride! The hard part is getting there, coming back it's basically all down hill. about 9 miles.

Lemme know!

Postage increase reminder

[vibrantabyss.livejournal.com]

Monday, letters go up to $0.42.  I don't recall the Post Office doing this before, but the undenomiated stamps they are selling now for $0.41 will be $0.42 after the change.  They are called 'forever' stamps and will *always* be valid for full 1st class postage.  Not that this is D^2 specific, but I thought it merited a news-bit.
