"In the Museum’s permanent galleries, visitors encounter the diversity of life on earth, from dinosaurs to fossil invertebrates and reptiles, to large mammals, birds and fish, and the only mounted Kronosaurus. The mineralogical galleries present a systematic display of meteorites, minerals and gemstones. The galleries also house the historic Blaschka glass models of plants, popularly known as the Glass Flowers. In addition, a series of changing exhibitions bring focus to new research at the University. Current exhibitions include The Language of Color, on how animals communicate with color, and Mollusks: Shelled Masters of the Marine Realm (through Feb 2014), and New England Forests."

Saint Patrick's Day is around the corner, and because the city of Boston is rich in Irish heritage (and Irish pubs), Boston.com compiled a list of the top Irish bars. This list is broken down into various categories such as nightlife scene and live music. You can even vote here for the remaining contenders!

The bracket challenge runs March 11-15. Each round lasts one day. We will tally up the votes and announce the winner on March 16, the day before Saint Patrick's Day.
