The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reminds us that the vaccine for the 2012-2013 flu season "will protect against the three influenza viruses that research indicates will be most common during the season. This includes an influenza A (H1N1) virus, an influenza A (H3N2) virus, and an influenza B virus."
You'll find assistance from federal, state, and local authorities– including medical institutions and retail stores. There are sites to track flu activity, plus suggestions that could help save you time and money.
As always, check with your doctor or other healthcare professionals for any flu-related advice.
Do federal, state, and city health officials have any updates on flu or flu vaccinations?

Edible Boston's covers are so attractive that I can envision them framed on my dining room wall. This issue is no exception. Nice work by photographer Michael Piazza.
The Fall 2012 issue is around town now. I found a stack of them at Bauer Wine & Spirits on Newbury Street. Howie Rubin had nice things to say about the success of his advertising in this publication. I know that Edible Boston has been an asset to the local food community, but I'm really happy to hear that it's good for the businesses that support it with their advertising dollars.
Every issue seems to feature someone near to our hearts at BostonZest. This time, there's a feature on the family team from the Mei Mei Street Kitchen food truck.
Pick up a copy and enjoy the insight provided on many aspects of the local food scene.

All summer long, we've seen rods and reels along the Esplanade as anglers choose favorite spots for a major bass fishing tournament to be held on the Charles and Mystic Rivers in September. The B.A.S.S. Federation Nation, Eastern Division Championship will take place on the Charles and Mystic Rivers from September 12th to the 14th, 2012.
This bass, caught along the Esplanade canoeway, was too small to keep. After posing for a quick photo, it was returned to the river.
Perhaps the currents under the Mass Ave Bridge are a sweet spot for this angler.
