Helping Boston Bombing Victims

Our thoughts and hearts are with the victims and families affected by the Boston Marathon bombings on April 15th. If you'd like to help those most affected by the tragedy, we've compiled information on a few things you can do:

  • Visit The One Fund Boston, a fund created by Governor Deval Patrick and Boston Mayor Thomas M. Menino specifically for donations to the victims and families.
  • Give blood, but schedule it for the upcoming weeks. The Red Cross says that they have enough donated today for those in need, and that the best way to give is to help replenish the blood supply in the coming weeks and months. Make an appointment by calling 1-800-RED CROSS or visiting redcrossblood.org.
  • Keep going and running. According to a Facebook page set up to honor the victims, "The next 26.2 aren't about race prep, monthly mileage, or self. It's about our brothers and sisters, the ones we don't know but share a bond with. Run for the ones for whom today's 26.2 might have been their last, and for the ones that didn't finish. Run it in 1 day, 1 week or 1 month. Just run."
  • For more information on how to help, including how to donate to different foundations and individual families, visit boston.com and scroll down until you reach The One Fund logo and see the "how you can help victims and investigators" link.

Cedar Lane Cinemas: A Film Experience

Cedar Lane Cinemas harkens back to a magical time when going to the movies was an adventure. This isn’t your standard megaplex, of course. Big budget blockbusters wouldn’t do well here. But for an intimate movie experience Cedar Lane is ideal. The prices are a lot lower than your typical cinema chain, where one must pay an arm and a leg to get popcorn and soda. This is the way movies were meant to be experienced. A clean, beautiful theater showing great films and offering snacks at reasonable prices. Neighborhood theaters like this are some of the best places to see interesting films.
