Well, at least it's a bridge to somewhere
The Globe reports the Krafts gave as much as they could to Democrats as state officials began applying for $9 million in federal funds to build a pedestrian bridge between parking lots by Patriot Place.
The Outraged Liberal doubts the Krafts were trying to influence that decision, but says: There's no way Deval Patrick wins this one.

Governor wants green light for red-light cameras
They have them in other states. Now Gov. Patrick wants legislation to let cities and towns put cameras atop traffic signals to photograph and fine drivers caught going through red lights.
Interestingly, he put it in his latest proposal to deal with the state's latest fiscal problems - so that's how he's going to soften the blow of cuts in local aid to cities and towns (click on the link, then either scroll down or search on "red light").

Globe finally notices something fishy with Evergreen Solar
It's something I noticed in April of 2008, and wrote again about in March of 2009.
Interesting that new details are coming out, like the fact that a third of their workforce are temporary. I wonder how many of them are "independent contractors"...
The Globe also completely fails to mention that after securing money from the state and letting Patrick brag about the new jobs it was bringing in, Evergreen Solar built a $55M plant in Michigan which they claim will have 100 employees. Evergreen Solar received 2 million dollars from Michigan in tax credits last year.
