While working at the David Monti Agency in Providence, RI, I helped client Marshall Contractors use a national safety award to promote its cost-effective design-build construction services.

The regular-season finale between the New England Patriots and the New York Giants was like an episode of Unsolved Mysteries. One peek at the Giants Stadium sidelines produced no glimpse of Robert Stack wearing headphones, yet the Saturday-afternoon game – a 23-22 New England victory – still had a surreal air about it.

Thanks to For Sentimental Reasons, the big band sound of the World War II era is alive and swinging throughout New England. Fronted by Dorchester native and Quincy resident Sean Roper, For Sentimental Reasons is a performance group that re-creates a "live" USO-style radio broadcast, circa 1944, via Armed Services Radio.

Every generation has its Gold Rush. For Generation X, it was the Tech Boom. For Millennials, it might just be the Big Data Revolution. Instead of pickaxes and pans, though, today’s data miners will use science and software to unearth 21st century gold – keen business intelligence.

Despite his Harvard pedigree, Bruins defenseman Don Sweeney has embraced the organization’s lunch pail approach to the game, suiting up for 793 games and counting. Among active Bruins, Sweeney trails only the Pan-like Bourque, who is approaching 1,500 games played.

More than 80 economists, from both within the Federal Reserve System and from academia, gathered at the Boston Fed to discuss how behavioral economic models should inform economic policy-making and central banking.

A century ago, islanders could travel from the harbor to Siasconset via the dearly departed Nantucket Railroad, a privately funded enterprise that operated—in fits and starts, but mostly fits—from 1881-1918. Although it ran in the red for most of its checkered history, the Nantucket Railroad had a rich history of derailments, de-coupled cars, engine failure, shifting tracks, crashes, and other calamities.

Just more than a year after departing from the cozy confines of Boston College's Chestnut Hill campus, where both the fans and media were friendly to the All-World Eagle, Philadelphia defensive end Mike Mamula has experienced a rude awakening in his second incarnation as an Eagle.

In one of my more enjoyable assignments while at the Mass. Eye and Ear Infirmary, I live-tweeted the New Kids on the Block (NKOTB) performance at the 2015 Sense-Ation Gala, the hospital's annual fundraiser.

Check out a promotional brochure that features Bentley University's many technology-learning labs, which offer students the hands-on experience that they need to hit the ground running after graduation.

Black and blue or gold and white? In late February, this was the burning question on the minds of millions as an innocent Tumblr post about a dress color went viral on social media. Fortunately, Joe Rizzo, M.D., of Mass. Eye and Ear was able to explain the science behind #TheDress to WBZ-TV and National Geographic.

Although not a trained graphic designer, over the years I've been asked to dabble in digital design. Here is a selection of modest samples . . .

Professor Rich Melloni and grad assistant Jill Grimes have linked chronic steroid abuse with overly aggressive behavior in steroid-treated adolescent male Syrian hamsters.

Working closely with Bentley University's Cronin Office of International Education and graphic design colleagues, I developed the concept and copy for a series of posters aimed at collecting photos of Bentley students near world-famous landmarks for use in advertising and marketing efforts.

After being shuttered for nearly a year, dusty and stripped of its seats and walls, the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute’s storied lecture hall – the Jimmy Fund Auditorium – recently began the first day of the rest of its life.

New data demonstrates the benefits of BPM 31510 for pancreatic cancer patients and BPM 31543 for those suffering from chemotherapy-induced Alopecia (CIA).

The Super Bowl is no exception to the grand American tradition of excess. In fact, the National Football League’s championship game typifies it. So it should come as no surprise that the NFL team that scored most excessively all season long, the Green Bay Packers, continued that timeworn tradition of American gluttony with a 35-21 Super Bowl XXXI victory over the AFC Champion New England Patriots in the Louisiana Superdome.

For the media, the trouble with Super Bowl Week is lies in digging up a meaty story.

As Bentley has evolved from an accounting school on Boylston Street in Boston’s Back Bay to a full-fledged university in Waltham, leadership understood the growing need to infuse Bentley’s business curriculum with a liberal dose of humanities-focused coursework.
