August 22, 2006

By TAMARA WIEDER | August 17, 2006

Vegetarians, avert your eyes: on August 22, Craigie Street Bistrot (5 Craigie Circle, Cambridge) will horrify you with Whole Hog, a six-course pork dinner. Carnivores, however, will no doubt delight in a menu that includes pork, pork liver, and bacon terrine; crispy suckling pig confit; and slow-cooked Vermont pig belly. The cost is $95 (wine pairings are an additional $40; wine can also be ordered by the glass or bottle). Seatings are at 6:30, 7, and 7:30 pm; call 617.497.5511 or visit craigiestreetbistrot.com for reservations.

A GIRL'S GUIDE TO BOSTON BOYS
Autumn opens itself wide with possibility. And Boston begins to crackle with fresh energy (you'll feel it), as the city spreads its arms to thousands of new humans. New brains and bodies abuzz with all sorts of anticipation. The feeling of fall: potential .

HIGH DIVES
Dive bars. Where the drinks are cold and stiff. Where the air wafts with the unmistakable but not-altogether-unpleasant tang of suds long since spilled. Where the neon shines bright and true and the jukebox plays good and loud.

SHORT-SIGHTED?

THE GRANITE STATE GANG
Big bucks couldn't buy the viral awe and ire that the Free State Project (FSP) scored on August 11, when New Hampshire resident William Kostric arrived outside President Barack Obama's Portsmouth Town Hall meeting with a handgun on his right thigh — "open carrying" is quite legal in the Granite State — and a sign declaring IT IS TIME TO WATER THE TREE OF LIBERTY!

AFTER TED
The death of Senator Edward M. Kennedy early Wednesday morning brings to a close the life and legendary career of one of Massachusetts's greatest political figures.
