Dan Grech reports.</p><blockquote><p><strong>Up to 10,000 Brazilian immigrants in Boston</strong> -- many of them here illegally -- <strong>are expected to follow Benicio home this year.</strong> <strong>Brazilian strongholds in New Jersey and South Florida are seeing a similar exodus.</strong></p> <p>Many immigrants say they are leaving because they feel lonely and afraid as local sentiment has turned against illegal immigrants and, for the first time in decades, these Brazilians have a viable alternative back home: a robust economy with plenty of jobs.</p></blockquote> http://tags.library.upenn.edu/makerecord/url/25577 http://tags.library.upenn.edu/makerecord/url/25577 34 hurt in troubled bus line's latest episode<br />Fung Wah driver cited for speeding in rollover<p>By David Abel and Kristen Green, Globe Staff and Globe Correspondent | September 6, 2006</p><p>AUBURN -- Thirty-four people were injured yesterday after a speeding Boston-bound Fung Wah bus rolled over on an Interstate 290 offramp, State Police said.</p> http://tags.library.upenn.edu/makerecord/url/25576 http://tags.library.upenn.edu/makerecord/url/25576 Welcome to Fung Wah Bus, The largest (Chinatown Bus) bus service provider between New York and Boston, serving the New York Chinatown to Boston route for more than 10 years.

We are hoping to gather information on cycling patterns to use as a guide when updating and evaluating cycling routes, lanes, rack disbursements, etc. We hope you will help us gather information on cycling behavior in Boston by tracking your rides through Boston.</p> <p>&quot;We invite everyone who rides a bicycle within or to/from Boston to participate including commuters, racers, recreational riders, families, and even people who exercise once a year&hellip; All ages are welcome.</p> <p>&quot;Participation takes just a few minutes. We will ask you to go on-line and track an actual day of riding for us using a website we have created. We want you to record exactly where you biked on this given ride.</p> <p>&quot;If you have passed through Boston anytime on a ride today, please start today.&nbsp;Otherwise, please record the very next day that you pass through Boston on a ride.&nbsp;We want to see both weekend and weekday activity.&nbsp;And, feel free to record multiple days of riding.
