This new path along the Massachusetts Avenue side of Flagstaff Park creates a protected, two-way bicycle and pedestrian connection between Harvard Square and Massachusetts Avenue northbound. ³This area has been a missing link for pedestrians and cyclists for many years and will create safer connections to many area destinations,² said Bill Deignan, Transportation Program Manager for the city¹s Community Development Department. The Cambridge Common and Flagstaff Park project are part of a joint effort between the City of Cambridge and the Massachusetts Department of Transportation to rehabilitate all aspects of the Common as well as improve conditions for all users of these parks and those travelling along this section of Massachusetts Avenue, from Garden Street to Waterhouse Street. After many years of planning and securing $5.1 million of local, state and federal funding, the project began in 2014 and is anticipated to be substantially complete by the end of 2015. The remainder of the work on this project includes replacing all pathway surfaces on the Common to meet access codes, replace and upgrade all benches and trash cans, plant over 100 trees, improve drainage and turf surfaces, and replace the lighting system utilizing energy-efficient fixtures.

[BULK] FW: Police Arrest Suspects Connected to a Series of Armed Street Robberies

So you know the rest of the story. From: Cambridge PD CITYWIDE <no-reply(a)citizenobserver.com> Date: Saturday, July 4, 2015 at 7:28 PM To: Cambridge PD CITYWIDE <no-reply(a)citizenobserver.com> Subject: Police Arrest Suspects Connected to a Series of Armed Street Robberies Cambridge PD CITYWIDE Alert Police Arrest Suspects Connected to a Series of Armed Street Robberies Two men and two juveniles were arrested in Lawrence following a series of armed robberies that took place in Cambridge, Brookline, Boston, and Lawrence on Friday morning. Michael Ellis, 20, 99 Broadway in Haverhill; King Sheman, 19, 33 Story Avenue in Newburyport; and two male juveniles out of Newburyport and Amesbury were arrested by the Lawrence Police Department on Friday morning after the suspects pistol whipped and robbed a victim in Lawrence of their phone and wallet. The suspect¹s vehicle a black Volkswagen and two weapons a black and silver BB gun were recovered. Shortly thereafter, detectives from the Cambridge Police Department, Boston Police Department and Brookline Police Department responded to the Lawrence Police Department to interview the suspects and review the recovered evidence since they matched the descriptions provided by each of the victims in the respective cities. Initial property recovered included belongings from the Cambridge victims. Due to the preliminary investigation and property recovered, the departments are highly confident that these suspects were involved in the armed robberies that took place throughout the four cities Friday morning. Cambridge, Boston and Brookline anticipate formally charging the suspects following the completion of their investigation. Anyone with information related to these incidents are asked to contact their local police department.###The Cambridge Police Department is committed to the enforcement of laws and preservation of order that protect the rights and property of every person within the City of Cambridge. Our mission is to provide the highest quality of police service and to impact crime, and its associated elements, through the utilization of new and proven crime prevention strategies and problem-solving partnerships with our community.

anyone interested?

8 Would you like to host an Iraqi high school student August 6-20? <https://avonhillcambridge.nextdoor.com/news_feed/?post=13093632> 17h ago Kristin Semmelmeyer <https://avonhillcambridge.nextdoor.com/profile/1380166> from Agassiz Dear Neighbors, My daughter and I hosted an Iraqi teenage student here in Cambridge last summer for two weeks. It was a very rewarding and fun experience for us and we're hosting two students again this year. We did this through a program sponsored by the U.S. State Department in conjunction with the American Embassy in Baghdad. The students who come to the U.S. are highly accomplished Iraqi high school students. About 1,100 students apply to the program, and about 150 are accepted. 14 of those are coming to Boston. These high schoolers went through months of completing application questions sent to them by email, and a number of interviews, including at the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad, before being accepted. They are from all around Iraq. I'm writing you now because the program is still looking for additional host families, for four teenage girls, one teenage boy, and one 20-something adult Iraqi mentor. Families host one or more students, whatever they request. I'm writing in case you might be interested yourself, or in case you know someone else who might be interested (feel free to forward this email). Host families don't have to live in Cambridge, though it's nice for those of us who do because the program at Tufts is so close by. But there have been families from Boston and Newton who have also hosted, with their kids traveling for as long at 1-1/2 hours each way to get to Tufts on public transportation. This year, the students will be here in Boston from August 6th through August 20th. They will be studying Public Health every weekday at the Fletcher School at Tufts. Here is some more information about the program: -- The students are at Tufts for the whole day, so hosts have no responsibility to occupy their times during weekdays. -- The Tufts building they are in is between Davis/Teele Squares. Hosts don't have to transport the kids there, unless we want to. If a host isn't going to drive their student over in the morning and pick him or her up at the end of the day, we teach him or her how to get there by public transportation. Public transportation is a new (and enjoyable) experience for the students, allowing them a level of independence they don't generally have at home. -- The program provides breakfast for the students. -- One of the participants who needs a host is a 20-something (Iraqi) male mentor, who might be more independent (for anyone who doesn't want to deal with having a teenager in the house). -- Ramadan will be over before the kids arrive, so that's not a consideration this year. -- The experience of living with a host families is one of, if not the, highlights of the students' experience here. They experience American family life with us during the evenings and over two weekends. Last year, we took our student to the beach, which was his first time seeing the ocean, and we took him to a Red Sox game. I also found pickup soccer games in Cambridge for our soccer-loving student, and dropped him off to play twice, which he loved. When he got home, he told me (on Facebook, they don't have snail mail or reliable email in Baghdad) that being here was the best two weeks of his life. -- There are three or four evenings of activities during the two weeks that host families participate in, if they are able to. Last year it was a bowling get-together, a pizza party at a Cambridge host family's house, and a presentation the students made to us at Fletcher on their last evening here. -- Although we are, you don't have to be a family with school-aged children to participate. Host families can be of any configuration -- single or couple, with children or without, with children at home or with children grown. -- Look at this website if you're interested: https://www.gyli.org/programs/iraqi-exch... <https://www.gyli.org/programs/iraqi-exchange-program/> Also, please feel free to get in touch with me if you'd like to talk or learn more about our experience. You can send me a private message off the list.

[BULK] FW: Cambridge Police Share Information on Pair of Armed Street Robberies in Riverside Neighborhood

Disturbing MO. From: Cambridge PD CITYWIDE <no-reply(a)citizenobserver.com> Date: Friday, July 3, 2015 at 10:21 AM To: Cambridge PD CITYWIDE <no-reply(a)citizenobserver.com> Subject: Cambridge Police Share Information on Pair of Armed Street Robberies in Riverside Neighborhood Cambridge PD CITYWIDE Alert Cambridge Police Share Information on Pair of Armed Street Robberies in Riverside Neighborhood The Cambridge Police Department is asking residents to be vigilant as they investigate two separate armed robbery incidents that took place early this morning in the Riverside neighborhood. At approximately 2:30 a.m., two roommates walking home to their Putnam Avenue residence from the Central Square area were robbed at gunpoint. The victims observed a dark colored sedan traveling in the wrong direction on Franklin Street towards Putnam Avenue in their direction. When the vehicle was in close vicinity to the victims, two male suspects jumped out of the vehicle, pointed a small, dark handgun at them, and grabbed their purses and a cell phone. They then fled in the vehicle, which they described as driven by a third suspect and traveling in an unknown direction. Approximately 30 minutes later, a student reported to the Harvard University Police Department that he was robbed at gunpoint while walking down Arrow Street towards Bow Street. Cambridge Police also responded and the victim stated a dark colored sedan stopped and two males jumped out of the car and struck him in the face with what he believed to be a handgun and the head with an unknown object. The offenders ordered him to the ground. While on the ground, the offenders removed his headphones, money, and other personal items. The suspects then drove off with another suspect in an unknown direction. The victim suffered minor injuries, but refused medical treatment. The suspects are described as black males, possibly in their 20s, wearing dark-colored clothing and hoodies, and in possession of black or silver handguns. Cambridge Police are actively investigating these incidents. Anyone with information is asked to call the Cambridge Police at 617-349-3300. Those who wish to submit tips anonymously via phone, email, and text message, should visit www.CambridgePolice.org/Tips. <https://u1018552.ct.sendgrid.net/wf/click?upn=LIfqF-2F7y7kDZ04bZt4fNbjvLgcT kx32S4uj7JqdY-2FB8NnpdEjXZ3NQKd7WQziTZb_6POa6Af7l1fgi-2BhkqaUWWvm-2BB3EsC1lu irp-2BP7HYY4uwKsQVB1AlmbcXOPdI-2FtLCn0ZHS4T-2BdG5cxIYSLVQUn-2FZZv-2BwfZ4ukhN 6LZ-2FKUKukQEWRYOUlZjUzy-2BfjuJXtMPRaiGyCvdJ5ngxXiVDTuyoPnAHn0Ct6gvdAfe7nv7R SR-2BuuiMChC-2FIMSccsJrpj3wxyo01-2FY4mAO57gBX9Jz0g-3D-3D> To avoid being victimized, Cambridge Police encourage all persons to take the following precautions when walking at night: * Do not wear earbuds, headphones, or listen to music while walking alone. * Always walk with a friend or in a group when possible. * Be aware of your surroundings at all times and trust your instincts. * Walk with confidence on the street and at a good, steady pace. Keep your head up and observe your surroundings. Don't look down at the ground. * If you feel you are being followed, show you are suspicious Turn to look at the person. This sends a clear message that you will not be taken by surprise. * Change directions. If someone is following you on foot, cross the street and vary your pace. If the person following you is in a car, turn and walk in the opposite direction. * If approached, DO NOT RESIST. The best course of action is to hand over money and whatever other belongings are demanded and try to disengage from this confrontational and potentially dangerous situation as soon as possible. Remember, things can always be replaced. * Try to remember descriptive information about the robber (height, age, race, etc.) to relay to police when reporting any potential incidents. * Please call the police immediately to report an incident. * Do not handle any property that may be potential evidence. Allow the police to retrieve evidence.
