'Cliff' Diving from the ICA; Too Much Coffee

SEAPORT - Because nothing represents an energy drink better than people diving 92 feet from the top of the Institute for Contemporary Art into Boston Harbor, the Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series will return to Boston a month from today. Head over to the ICA (100 Northern Ave., Boston) on August 25 between 4 PM and 7 PM to catch the free show. [BosGuy]

DOWNTOWN - Raffle alert: The Boston Public Market Association is raffling off $100 gift cards to restaurants such as Aragosta, Uni, and Russell House Tavern to benefit the development of the indoor year-round public market, scheduled to open next summer. The raffle will continue through late November. Tickets are available for $5 each (or 5 for $20) online, at the City Hall Plaza market (Mondays and Wednesdays), and at the Dewey Square market (Tuesdays and Thursdays). [BostonPublicMarket.org]

MISSION HILL - Is there a such thing as too much coffee? The Community Alliance of Mission Hill apparently thinks so, voting against a proposed new Dunkin' Donuts by Roxbury Crossing in a spot that has been vacant for a decade. "There's already an abundance of coffee-type establishments," said a rep for City Councilor Mike Ross. [UH]
