Angry Cantabrigians are boarding protest buses, Amigos and Ola are fighting for their lives, and an unpopular school board has to sort through it all. A $2.6 million budget deficit and decades of declining enrollment mean that at least two Cambridge elementary schools have to close, and it’s not an easy decision for the beleaguered school board and the district’s lame-duck superintendent, Bobbie J. D’Alessandro, to make. One way or another, someone’s beloved neighborhood school will get the axe, and probably one of the valuable Amigos...
Patients like Chavez are part of what doctors in Tijuana call la ola verde--the "green wave" of Southern California residents washing into the border city's medical clinics. Attracted by low prices and easy access, cash-paying travelers, most of them Latino, have for years come from as far north as San Francisco to obtain medical and dental care in Tijuana and other border towns.

...that's rich for your budget, consider a more down-to-earth approach to personal pampering at the Hyatt Regency Waikiki's new Na Ho'ola Spa. For the facility, which opened last April, Hyatt engaged practitioners of the traditional Hawaiian art of lomi lomi, an indigenous form of therapeutic massage, to add local flavor to the list of available treatments. Top it off with a full-body seaweed masque or ti leaf wrap and you'll achieve a delightfully warm and squishy state, rather like something on the menu at last night's luau...
