--If we can't make an event out of a Super Bowl victory, then we'll make one out of Super Tuesday. Get answers to your burning questions, watch McLovin learn to vote, experience the rock-star presence of Barack Obama, and find out where to party. [All links Bostonist]

--One of presidential candidate Mitt Romney's fund-raisers, James Sims, has stepped down from his post as a national finance co-chair. It seems that he had trouble paying his taxes on time, even though he's rich. [WBZ]

--Fire investigators have determined the cause of the blaze that killed two people and destroyed a South Boston condo complex on New Years' Eve--"the irresponsible disposal of smoking materials." [WBZ]

--Harvard is quickly reaching a saturation point on sex mags. First there was H Bomb. And now there's "Diamond," which purports to be the campus answer to Playboy. Is it Harvard's mission to make sex boring? [Harvard Crimson, cringe-worthy story-related pun caught by Boston Daily]

--Comments are being shut down on stories posted at Cambridge's Wicked Local blog. Somerville's Wicked Local blog did the same in response to some, shall we say, passionate commentary. [Cambridge Chronicle, background]
