They're installing street surveillance cameras for the first time, the Cambridge Chronicle reports. It's part of a $4.6-million Homeland Security grant (Winthrop as terrorist target?) to deploy 100 new cameras in greater Boston.

Boston, Chelsea, Everett, and Revere are also installing cameras under the program, but they already had cameras in place.

HELP!!! Does anyone know a company or individual who can identify and spray to destroy poison ivy? This is the 4th time I've caught it since May, and I am ready to just concrete my whole yard in West Roxbury & paint it green (there goes the neighborhood!!)....I have searched the internet to no avail. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Or if not his head, at least formal censure. At issue: What he said to the vice president's chief of staff about al Queda: Did he say he was glad al Queda could see what the guy looked like?

Bostonmaggie, a Delahunt constituent, agrees:

... I love where I live. I couldn't live elsewhere. But there is a price to be paid and having this asshat for a Congressional representative is part of that price.

Jenny (friend who drove her): WOOOO!

Doctor: Uhh that's not generally the response we like to hear. ...
