Restoration Hardware Closer to Opening

1. Restoration opening: Despite its rocky opening night party and subsequent delayed opening, Restoration Hardware, now known as RH, should open at their 234 Berkeley St. location soon. A spokeswoman for RH told Patch, "We are working diligently with the City of Boston, the Inspection Services Department, the Fire Department and the Massachusetts Department of Public Safety to ensure that our Gallery meets applicable building codes and permitting requirements to open our doors as soon as possible."

2. Downtown Schools for Boston Meeting:The West End Civic Association invites downtown residents to hear about the efforts of Downtown Schools for Boston at their meeting tonight at 7 p.m. at the West End Museum (150 Staniford St.). This meeting is open to everyone interested in neighborhood schools in the residential areas of downtown Boston.

3. Volunteer expo: With National Volunteer Week coming up April 21-27, The Shops at Prudential Center will host the 2013 Volunteer Expo today at 5:30 p.m. in the Huntington Arcade. Mix, mingle and meet with more than 50 community groups from the Boston and Greater Boston areas.

4. "Cheers" tune: A new survey says that the theme song for "Cheers" is the best in TV history – better than the "Hawaii Five-O" number or "M*A*S*H" number. Even though Cheers is on Beacon Hill, do you think it deserves the top spot?

5. Weather: The National Weather Service is predicting a rainy day with a high of 49 degrees. There's a 60 percent chance of rain.
