...objective is to address all of the issues in a timely way.” Autler proposed that the task force and the University reconvene in mid-January to formulate principles to guide the development of the rest of the site. The 265-acre Arnold Arboretum in Jamaica Plain houses a collection of over 14,000 different plants and receives 250,000 visitors a year. Originally Harvard property, it was donated to the city in 1882 to be included in the park system designed by landscape architect Frederick Law Olmstead.

It’s culture-clash weekend at the box office! Wildly different movies open on the same weekend all the time, but this particular mid-holiday frame’s lineup is just plain bizarre. Obviously, a vast conspiracy is at work—a bunch of Hollywood suits sat down over a bottle of Coppola Wine and decided that Americans needed a good dose of hot-button issues. In Shakespearean tragic tones, here’s what you’ve got coming: “Something’s rotten in the State of the Middle East?...
