Sights, Cambridge edition

[magid]

• New signs at many Cambridge intersections, telling people where to call if there are problems and the code for that intersection.*
  
• Harvard's first solar panel on a streetlight.
  
• Best decorated public tree: the big tree in the little park on JFK Street has strings of blue lights dancing through its branches along with white lights enclosed in some kind of bags, looking a bit like white glowing jellyfish.
  
• On Mass Ave past Porter Square, bike lines. It must not be bike lanes, given that they've painted the bike symbol on the white line. Vowel confusion, perhaps?
  
• Powerfrau, in her no-longer-native state. Huzzah for serendipitous meetings!

* I tried to find more about this on the Cambridge city site, but couldn't figure out where they put any announcement. I did find something that may be useful to Camberville locals this New Year's Eve: free cab rides. The safeRide program gives free cab rides for people leaving Cambridge alcohol licensed establishments and going to residential addresses, from 9 p.m. to 7 a.m. There is a $35 cap on cab rides and customers must be at least 21 years old to use this service. The phone number will be 617 876 2000.

BTW, what is your schedule like from now to say 1/1 night?

I've got plans tonight, and I'm working tomorrow, but otherwise things are fairly open. There are errands and such to be done, but most of it isn't requiring any particular timing.
