DANGER WILL ROBINSON! Starting this week, we’re going to be phasing out the adding of new calendar events by our staff. This means that if you’re from a group or organization, you’ll have to start doing them yourself. It’s pretty simple, though! While logged into your Patch account, just go here. Adding your event ensures it’ll show up in searches, and be eligible for me to give it shout-outs in Five Things.

Sign up for our daily newsletter! Hey, I realize we have a lot of neat features and knick-knacks on the site, so it can be confusing to keep up with it all. Want just one simple, easy to read daily digest? Sign up for our e-mail newsletter here then. It comes out between 6 a.m. and 7 a.m. roughly, every single day of the week. Amazing, I know!

Not to be confused with that thing from Tuck Everlasting. On this day in 1920, the Fountain of Time opened as a tribute for 100 years of peace between the United States and Great Britain.

Go go Rhode Island Island! Happy 36^th birthday to former NBA player and University of Rhode Island graduate Cuttino Mobley!
