Catholic Memorial School took on Newton North High School in basketball up in a suburb of Boston last night.

The Beat Generation Starter Kit
The Beats were the Nirvana of their generation: individualistic, drug-addled, and, unfortunately, sometimes held responsible for the Nickelbacks created in their wake.

Weightlifting Supplements Are Terrible, But I Love Them Anyway
Most days, if I remember, I’ll have a multivitamin with my breakfast, along with two small gelcaps with 1,000 international units of vitamin D (desk monkey, you know) and a probiotic.
