You all may remember the whole Somerville vs. Cambridge debate between Mayor Curtatone and Cambridge City Councilor Ken Reeves. (Here's the refresher article if you have no idea what this is about: http://bit.ly/oAG0VI) Needless to say, we are TEAM Somerville all the way, and if you haven't picked a side yet, the time is now, while there are these cool shirts available! 

ALL profits go the Somerville Homeless Coalition. We'll be out selling "Team Somerville" shirts this Saturday at ArtBeat, so look for our table if you want one! If you can't make it out, you can also purchase them (or see what they look like) here:

They'll be doing a tally at the end of day, so help us show that Somerville's the place to be! Please e-mail jmerrill@shcinc.org with any questions.

Hey, how come the Cambridge shirt-wearer is in the foreground in both pictures??

FYI, when I click on that URL, I get Page Not Found, but if I go to http://www.earthheaded.com/Eartheaded/ and then click on a URL that looks identical, things work just fine.

Odd. probably a referral block or something.

I have to say, i much prefer the term camberville to somerbridge, and not because i'm pro cambridge over somerville, but because it just seems to flow better. but, now that I think of it, maybe it flows better because i'm pro cambridge? hmmm, i'll have to think more about this.

I'm having the same problem. Why would they actively reject a link from LiveJournal?

There's an extra non-breaking space tacked on to the end of the url. Deleting it should fix the problem.

Oooh - good catch. Hopefully the original poster will understand this and fix it. (Wish I could fix it myself, but LJ doesn't give community moderators that power.)

This URL should work: http://www.earthheaded.com/Eartheaded/somerbridge.html

Just FYI the Multiservice Center in Cambridge (which shirt sales benefit, in addition the the SHC) is NOT a shelter. It's a center like the SHC where you can get help getting services from the government and organizations. No It's not a place to hang out or sleep. It is the pick up spot where women trying to get into the Someverille (Union Square) St. Patrick's Shelter (for women) go, though. (Because the people in Somerville were too anti-homeless women to let us just go to the shelter, from what I understand. So we had to go all the way to Central Square...)

OK, not that that was so important to the majority of people, but just in case, I didn't want anyone showing up at the Multiservice Center hoping to get a bed there. :-)

I prefer Camberville and am heartily pro-Somerville.

Also, there is some local youth program or something called Somerbridge or Summerbridge.

actually, aside from this promotion, I've never heard anyone use Somerbridge. It's been Camberville, always.
