Hey guys, I checked and couldn't find anything recent in the 'insurance' and 'eye care' tags, so I decided to just post.

I desperately need an eye exam and new glasses, and I'd like to know if any place close to Davis (T or bus-accessible) takes Masshealth? Their site and robot voice on the 800-number was useless.

Thanks all in advance!

snow emergency question

[taranwan.livejournal.com]

I know it's early to be thinking about it, but a couple of days ago the Somerville Journal posted a press release from the city encouraging people to sign up for snow emergency alerts.  I had a question about the city's snow emergency policy.  It says: "When the snow emergency is declared, parking is prohibited on the even side of the street, unless otherwise posted."

So does the odd side only parking apply to all streets in Somerville even if the street is not a snow emergency route, or is odd side only parking for snow emergency routes?
