DJ David Day MAKE IT NEW Thursday, November 1 Middlesex Lounge 315 Massachusetts Ave. Cambridge, MA 21+ / 9:00 pm - 2:00 am / FREE MySpace: Make It New This has been an incredibly eventful year for the youth in Boston's club scene, and it's about to experience another resurgence.

-- One down! After the five-game pounding that the Red Sox took from the Yankees at Fenway last August, Friday's matchup was more than just a game. It was more than just the first rivalry game of the season. It was about avenging the embarrassment that continued to smart for Sox fans over the winter and into the early season. The game itself was a battle of the best kind: one in which we came......

More complicated sciency stuff is on the way from MIT. In February the Laboratory for Electromagnetic and Electronic Systems looked to revolutionize the battery world with a microscopic (atomic even!) use of capacitors. They lined up nanotubes in a way to reduce the size of an ultracapacitor to a fraction of their current size – a size competitive with traditional batteries. This week another innovation in power supplies comes from MIT. MIT's Gas Turbine......

The first slogan, "We Will Win You Over," was scrapped by the governor at the time because "it reminded him too much of when he was single and asked......

And since such a storm is forecast to come our way late tonight or tomorrow, Bostonist thinks now is a good time to remind our......

Mayor Menino is calling on Boston religious leaders and city officials today to discuss the recent surge in violent crimes. Boston's homicide count is currently at 15 for this year, and it's only April. The mayor intends for this to be the first of several meetings this year. It's tough to say what is on the agenda, but it's likely that they are mulling over recommendations by the Legislature's Public Safety Committee. In February, the......
