Either way, Thanksgiving is the first chance for hockey fans to get a sense of the standings for the season and how teams are feeling. In this edition of “In the Crease,” we will take a look at the aspects of the standings that stand out the most thus far.

This past weekend, I decided to visit a neighborhood I’ve never been to before — Jamaica Plain. I’ve always been intrigued by its name — why is a neighborhood in Boston named Jamaica? Plus, one of my best friends is from there and raves about how much she loves it. Getting to Jamaica Plain is a bit of a trip; it took me a bit more than 45 minutes each way. If you are interested in visiting, you can hop on the Green Line at the Medford/Tufts Station, take it to North Station, then transfer to a Forest Hills-bound Orange Line train and get off at Green Street. From the Green Street Station, it’s about a 10-minute walk to the core commercial area of Jamaica Plain.

In southern Europe, tourism has boomed, with tourist spending in Portugal forecast to be 20% higher than 2019. This has led to recent efforts by European countries to dial back on tourism.

There’s a point in many people’s lives that we deem our parental “cut off” date — an official end to our reliance on our parents and their support. Some say it’s when we blow out the candles on our 18th-birthday cakes, others claim it’s when we walk across the stage at college graduation and some even declare independence when our parent’s medical insurance kicks us off the policy at age 26. For my family, there wasn’t a precise date on our calendars when my bags had to be packed and out on the front porch. Rather, my parents’ progressive withdrawal of themselves as my constant safety net through adolescence left me ready for college without the baggage of parental dependency.

On Saturday, Cousens Gymnasium buzzed with anticipation for the match Tufts volleyball had been preparing for all season. The Jumbos secured the No. 3 seed in the NESCAC Tournament with a regular season conference record of 7–3. Because they had beaten Wesleyan University and lost to Middlebury College, they sat between the two teams in the standings, despite all three teams having the same record. They bested Williams College 3–1 about a month before this playoff match, but in the end, they came up short when it mattered most in the NESCAC Tournament, falling 2–3 in a true battle.

Medford has an ever-expanding arts community. For a long time, there was no physical center that this community could call home, which made it difficult for smaller artists to find somewhere to both create and showcase their work. However, after years of trials and setbacks, the Arts Collaborative Medford opened its doors in February, hoping to become a place for both artists and art lovers alike to enjoy.
