Where to buy powdered bleach?

Which stores around here sell powdered chlorine bleach? Tired of lugging around bottles to do a wash. I've seen little single-wash boxes in vending machines at the cleaner's, but doesn't anyone sell a two-pound box of this? This isn't the same as color-safe bleach, which is fine, but once in a while I like to wash with actual chlorine.

Ticketing for Street Cleaning?

[dashford.livejournal.com]

At the time of the season's first snowstorm last December, the City of Somerville announced that street cleaning was to be suspended for the remainder of the year.  As far as I know, they haven't made such an announcement this time.  Obviously street cleaning will be impossible once the emergency is lifted (at least for several days), but could they still be ticketing for illegal parking per the street cleaning schedule?

You'd think that common sense would prevail here, but having recently been ticketed for parking near a fire hydrant that had been labelled "out of service" for weeks, I know that isn't always the case with the city.

Where can I find jelly-filled chocolates?

I've been casually looking for them while out shopping the past few weeks, but to no avail. Even Hidden Sweets doesn't have them.

Calendar donation?

Due to a mix up at Zazzle.com, I ended up with about 30 calendars (for 2010) for some dog-related business out of state. Zazzle sent out my real order, and told me to keep the calendars and I'd like to find an organization, elderly housing or something that might want them. They're not bad, but I don't need 30 calendars of dogs I don't know. I'd like to not drop off 30 individually. Any ideas?

Found camera

[sunshineyellow.livejournal.com]

Hi, I found a pretty nice camera while I was out sledding on President's Hill at Tufts and would like to return it to the owner!

- Casio Exilim with a 4 gig SDHC SanDisk card

- was found at the bottom of the hill, in the snow, had been there a while

- pictures of kids sledding earlier that day, a church/choir event with a banner in Portuguese, and what looked like a Christmas event at Medford High School

Please send this around to anyone you know.
