That
Chinese restaurant that caused all that controversy recently on College
Avenue after the owner was caught staying open until 3am was cited and
forced to close earlier like everyone else. Apparently they didn't like
that city ordinance and were bagged again by some Somerville Police
officers who witnessed new violations this past Saturday night during
the snowstorm. Sources say that the restaurant was caught sneaking
"take out" orders of food out through its back door and down the alley
to be delivered, again around 3am. Apparently some offenders just never
learn.

We hear that that PDS
web site "Somerville voices" is having a problem and may shut down, we
guess they are truly one sided and make their rules to suit themselves,
like everything else Progressives tend to do, right?

The
Armory on Highland Avenue is holding their first benefit concert for
the arts center January 24th. Joe, the new owner of the building
created a masterpiece with the fine renovation he has done to the site
and it is a credit to have this newly created arts and entertainment
center here in Somerville. We hope it's nothing but sell out crowds and
great success for the future.
