...jewel case of Rise Against’s “Appeal to Reason” is adorned with the post-apocalyptic silhouettes of ruined cities, a few left-wing movie recommendations, and a quote from Pablo Picasso—“No, painting is not done to decorate apartments. It is an instrument of war.” Rise Against is at war. They have drawn the lines of battle, chosen the side of the downtrodden, selected their weapon of choice, and illustrated the stakes—namely, everything. Even from the packaging, it’s apparent...
...thrived—under Parker’s tutelage. Since rowing in the second freshman eight, Schreck has worked his way up. Last season, he rowed in the varsity eight, which went 5-1 in dual races and defeated Yale in the Harvard-Yale Regatta, the crown jewel of the crew season and the oldest intercollegiate competition in America.

They use their own preserved produce at the restaurant all winter long, storing the jewel-toned jars in their wine racks, and they're currently on track to put up about 10,000 lbs. of locally grown San Marzano plum tomatoes for use this winter. Ever economical, Pascal and Schott also dip into leftover canning liquid, especially from fruits, to jazz up cocktails at the bar. Months ago, they put up nectarines with...
