LAist was comped front row seats by the Dodgers due to Malingering being struck by a foul ball last week, and she came back with some great photos, and earlier made fun of 4th of July on Venice Beach. But the biggest stories of the week was that the Mayor's Hot Tamale was revealed, and that a Kwik-E-Mart was erected in Burbank. Phillyist was busy doing the Fourth of July up right, exercising their... more ›

Thank you for your responses to our last call for writers! We're hoping you'll see some Foodie Debuts soon.

The Globe calls it Highway Blogging. Operation Over calls it effective. Yesterday the collective calling themselves Operation Over, working to stop a new BU biolab from opening its doors in Roxbury tossed bed sheet banners to display their message on 128 and the Mass Pike. They're looking to get their message out to a larger community, including the suburbs. Threatening situations like the spread of Ebola in the Hub – or even smallpox – has been the battle cry of the group. The Globe took to calling the road-banner activists "Highway Bloggers" without mention of the Operation Over initiative (fair - they only blogged about it on the tubes after the Globe's press time). Instead, the overpass-as-podium piece focused mainly on a Rhode Islander, a California resident, and a bit on Bruce MacDonald, a Cambridge lawyer. But we're not faulting them for the focus, they found a few folks who were willing to talk. The term "Highway Blogger" (or Freeway Blogger, as it was originally coined in California – land o' freeways), is a poor term. We're pretty sure that blog is a shortened version of 'web log' and the abbreviation and origin of the term has a handful of people laying claim to it – but it has nothing to do with banners on highways. That said it'd be really great if Mac Daniel would start blogging Starts & Stops by displaying slogan adorned bed sheets off overpasses…now, what rhymes with Amorello? more ›

This week we're trying hard to think about something other than how hard it is out here to be a pimp. Well, ok, maybe Bostonist is looking at the Oscars and just scratching our heads. We didn't know Jon Stewart could be that bland. We're still waiting to hear what Three 6 Mafia were wearing that made the camera all jakey last night. Now that we're done with the Academy we're looking back to Grammy.... more ›
