Spring Tautog Tips

Tautog provide some of the earliest saltwater fishing opportunities for New England anglers. Once the dandelions start to pop up on the lawns of Southern New England, savvy bottom fishermen reach for their tautog gear. Tautog, also known as blackfish, usually start to move inshore around the end of April, or when the water temperature hits the mid-40s. When it reaches 50 degrees, it’s game on! It’s no secret that tautog like to hang around structure, including rocks, mussel beds, wrecks and pilings. Isolated rocks and wrecks on an otherwise flat and featureless bottom are always prime spots, serving as oases for crabs, worms and other ‘tog food. For example, mostly sandy Nantucket Sound contains several wrecks that produce excellent...

What does a pandemic say about the tech we’ve built?

There’s a joke* being reshared on chat apps that takes the form of a multiple-choice question — asking who’s the leading force in workplace digital transformation?

The 9 most comfortable bras you can buy online that feel like you’re wearing nothing at all

Social distancing has significantly distorted my definition of comfort. Jeans I once considered comfortable now feel like there’s a boa constrictor around my thighs, and bras, well, they’re even more intolerable than before. While going braless is a good (and beneficial) option for some, others prefer having a bit of support. It’s hard enough finding a good bra when you shop in person, but finding a comfortable bra online? Even worse. According to Iris Clarke, owner of Iris Lingerie in Brooklyn, in order for a bra to be comfortable, it must fit. “Bra fitting is an art,” says Clarke. “All of our band sizes are different, all of our cup sizes are different, bras come in all shapes, and breasts...
