No more trouble in River City: Fenway club's pool tables now legal

The Boston Licensing Board today approved two pool tables at Church of Boston on Kilmarnock Street.

Church ran two coin-operated pool tables for some 4 1/2 years until it learned - via a citation from Boston Police - that it needed a license for them. Hauled before the licensing board last year, Church officials apologized and said they'd immediately shut down the tables.

At a hearing yesterday on its formal license request for the two tables, a bar lawyer emphasized a club worker would have a clear view of the tables to quickly dampen any trouble.

Needham man arraigned on child-porn charges

MillanA Needham man who worked in Jamaica Plain today became the latest local man to be charged with possession of child porn.

Keith Millan was arraigned on five counts of possession of child pornography in West Roxbury District Court. Judge Mary Ann Driscoll set bail at $25,000 and barred him from computers and children under 16 - although she will let the Department of Children and Families decide whether he can see his own children, the DA's office reports.

Millan's LinkedIn page still lists him as a property manager at Leeder Management, which runs the Perkins Square apartment complex in Jamaica Plain.

Millan was fired last year when his employers discovered run-of-the-mill porn on his company laptop, external hard drive and some CDs, the DA's office says. When the company had somebody reconfigure the computer for reuse, they discovered what looked like pornographic images of children - at which point they called police, the DA's office says. Investigators found "more than 100 photograph and video files depicting adults engaging in explicit sexual activity with young boys and girls ... disturbing, violent images," the DA's office says.

Millan was arraigned in West Roxbury because the computer and storage media were found in Jamaica Plain, the DA's office says.

Innocent, etc.

If Frontline, or maybe Michael Bay, pondered why the T couldn't run 24/7 even if it had the money

This is the trailer for a video about the T late at night. Transit nerds will dig it; but so will regular riders who want to know what really happens in those tunnels. The complete video follows, complete with a tour of an abandoned tunnel still prepared for use as a fallout shelter and the unique problems T workers have with college students and people who fall on the tracks:
