• Tax By GPS

  
  Marry in Massachusetts — Authority: 490
  Do you want to recalculate? Like most GPS boxes, ours can ask that in various tones, languages and as man or woman. Its an apt question for the efforts to implement driver fees based on miles traveled instead of per gallon of gas. In a post ( also at BMG ) about recently ex-transportation secretary of Massachusetts ...

• Breasts, Docs and Perceived Reality

    Confusing Doctors Again Not much funny about breast cancer, eh? However, the medical community is giving us a big yuk on mammogram schedules. Like the ending of G.I. Joe cartoons, the moral of the episode invariably included, “And now we know…and knowing is half the battle.” In this case, the U.S. ...

• Blogs and Togs

  
  Marry in Massachusetts — Authority: 490
  Woe to us weaklings with political or personal blogs! In high fashion, bloggers have lately become the willing and quite capable tools of designers concerned with the hem and cut of your garments. In fairness, I snootily sequester myself. I rarely watch TV and generally disdain trends and other ephemera. I am not ...

• Capuano Captures Crowd

  
  Marry in Massachusetts — Authority: 490
  As no huge surprise, as it was his Boston rally, U.S. Rep. Mike Capuano rocked the Park Plaza tonight. The emcee claimed over 1,200 there. I had a live blog at Left Ahead! and Kate Donaghue did hers at Blue Mass Group . Going home afterward, I thought of what I told his aide, Monica Crane, when she asked what ...

• Not OK in ME and MA

  
  Marry in Massachusetts — Authority: 490
  Not OK: It is not OK to impose your personal beliefs on any group of fellow humans. It is not OK to attempt to legislate your religion on larger American society. It is not OK to select portions of your sacred texts to justify harming others. It is not OK to use mob rule by ballot initiatives to replace ...

• Boston Commuter Rail Rant

  
  Marry in Massachusetts — Authority: 490
  The charm quickly peels awayfrom Bostons atavistic transit system. Like the crappy Pennsylvania Turnpike, we have the hemispheres oldest subway. It seems like it. Series note: This is part of the Rail-Volution inspired post set . At the weekends conference, I was surprised and pleased to learn about the ...

• One City Council Spark Unlit

  
  Marry in Massachusetts — Authority: 490
  Boston went status quo yesterday, literally at the mayoral level and both literally and figuratively at the council level. Thats not bad, just kind of conservative and old fashioned, well, like an old town. First, I accept my lump on Andrew Kenneally, one of my endorsements for council at large. Thats trivial for ...

  I felt like Bugs Bunny late last night — "A got a baaaaaaaaaaaaaaad feeling about this," hed say. Sure enough I awoke to find that Maines same-sex marriage law had been overturned before it could start in a peoples veto . As reported in the Bangor and Portland papers, the count will end up being something like ...

• Invisible Bike Rack

  
  Harrumph! — Authority: 117
  I surely make too much of this, but it is my nature to expect much from those who promise much. Where are the bike racks for the snazzy convention center at Ft. Point Channel? In its very subtle way (click thumbnail for large squint), there is one, one short one for the entire center plus the gigantic Westin ...

• Rail-Volution Posts Coming

  
  Harrumph! — Authority: 117
  Lever pullers, keyboard punchers, paper shufflers and tool users alike tend to short horizons. We have deadlines and uncertain careers, thinking in terms of days or months. Alternatively, I swam deeply from Thursday evening through Sunday morning with the long-view folk who attended Rail-Volution . Those involved in ...

• Rolling the Councilor Dice

  
  Marry in Massachusetts — Authority: 490
  Being relentlessly egalitarian, I would like to be able to believe that we voters decide on merits and issues, not looks, race, gender and such. Not only is that not realistic or historically accurate, but those factors are so intertwined, separating them would be impossible. A short post in No Drumlins, Women for ...

Bowes III worked with the Patrick administration to do the project, which restores a service discontinued to save money. The result is an only ...

• Old Enough, Just Old, Too Old?

  
  Marry in Massachusetts — Authority: 490
  So Tom Menino is 66. Thats a famous highway. Its also a typical obituary number. With credit to his challengers and critics, few have made much of his age in this Boston mayoral re-election bid. To be sure his four terms and 16 plus years in office, the longest serving ever, have made the debates and campaign ...

  Marry in Massachusetts — Authority: 490
  First, nobody won last nights sole televised debate among the four Dems who would take over Ted Kennedys Senate seat. Ill sketch what I got out of it. You can get the nuggets panned by analysts everywhere. I suggest starting with the Phoenix Bernstein and the Globes Mooney . In addition, some outside commentators ...

• Kenneally, Connolly, Arroyo, Murphy

  
  Marry in Massachusetts — Authority: 490
  Bostons At-Large Councilor race has confounded most voters this year. I can make it simple: Vote for the two competent incumbents Vote for the only other two with direct City Council experience Vote Connolly, Murphy, Kenneally and Arroyo Vote positions 1, 3, 6 and 7 All things are not equal this time. First, ...
