Senator
Joyce's gifts raise concerns
JUST
LOTS OF COUPONS TO THE MILTON SUNGLASS HUT: Some are questioning the ethics
behind Senator
Brian
Joyce
's
gift to his peers. Last month he gave each member of the Senate expense
sunglasses that retail around $234 to $244, the Boston Globe reports. However,
he negotiated a price that was much lower than that. "Politicians, according to
state ethics rules, are not supposed to receive discounts that are not available
to others," according to the Boston Globe. -

Kerry
fined for not cleaning snow
Somewhere
in the Herald newsroom there's a buzzer that goes off and balloons fall from the
ceiling when something like this happens: Secretary of State
John
Kerry

received a ticket for not shoveling the sidewalk along his Boston home. "City
Hall hit America's top diplomat with a $50 ticket yesterday after another
citizen called it in to the Inspectional Services Department. His was one of 210
snow-removal citations issued yesterday," the Herald reports. "Well, you know,
when ISD goes out, they're indiscriminate about who they ticket and who they
don't," Keeta Gilmore, the chairwoman of the Beacon Hill Civic Association said
to the Herald. "Sounds like they're out on the job." Which are incidentally the
nicest words the paper has ever run about city employees, but who cares - John
Kerry got a ticket!

SONG
OF THE FRIDAY:

Paul Engemann's
Push
it to the Limit.

Obviously. Just imagine it's the House and instead of cash, all the money is
legislation and the wedding celebration is just passing the budget. The tiger's
the same though, and I think they're all wearing the same style suits. -

What's
in Capitol Today:
In
a piece titled "What's
Karyn
Polito
up
to?" (Answer: Just LGin', bro.) Akilah Johnson looks at how Gov. Baker has
utilized his feisty running mate now that he's in charge. "But already Polito
and Baker have begun to carve out a job description that relies heavily on her
base of support in Central Massachusetts, experience in municipal and
legislative affairs, and background in development. She also plans to focus on
homelessness, domestic violence, and empowering women." -
