The National Transportation Safety Board recommends reducing the limit. Some say it would save lives. Others say it's unreasonable.
One drink could be the standard for drunken driving – at least for some people if the National Transporation Safety Board has its way. On Tuesday, the NTSB recommended states lower the blood-alcohol threshold for driving under the influence from 0.08 percent to 0.05 percent. What do you think? Is the proposal reasonable? About 10,000 deaths a year are related to drunken driving. The NTSB says the lower limit would save 500 to 800 lives a year. Officials at the American Beverage Institute called the proposal "ludicrous." It said the average woman could reach the 0.05 percent limit by having one drink. There were 114 DUI fatalities in Massachusetts in 2012, which were 34 percent of traffic-related fatalities last year, according to Mothers…

I think their desire to lower the limit is a means of increasing government control. Soon everyone, no matter who (except illegal aliens of course), will technically be in violation of the law so the government will always have a pretext to arrest whenever they have a need. Just look at the current tax code. Nearly every tax filing (beyond the most trivial) are in violation. more ›
Recap and analysis of the week in state government.
Like pieces of a puzzle that don't quite fit together yet, the Big Three may have been separated at birth, but with each incremental step their destinies seem to grow more intertwined. No, we're not talking about those Big Three - Gov. Deval Patrick, Senate President Therese Murray and Speaker Robert DeLeo - though they play major character roles in this thickening plot. Instead, three bills have come to define the early months of the 2013 legislative agenda and resolutions on tax hikes, local road funding and the annual state budget continue to be elusive and dependent on one another. Patrick spent the early part of his week welcoming British Prime Minister David Cameron to Boston for a few quick meetings and a visit to the Copley …

A Salem fountain that has sat dry for more than three years was flowing once again Thursday afternoon to the delight of city residents and nearby business owners.
City residents out enjoying Thursday's weather were delighted to see water flowing once again from the fountain near the Essex Street entrance to the Museum Place Mall. The effort to get the fountain flowing was spearheaded by Arthur Ingemi, owner of the nearby Village Tavern, who noticed the fountain wasn't pumping water for the third straight summer season. Ingemi said he spoke to Salem Public Works foreman George Sands, who was working in the area, and inquired about the possibility of getting the fountain going. Sands' response, he said, was that he could "get that baby going in about four hours" if he just had the right parts. So, earlier this month, Ingemi reached out to the mayor's office and soon learned that the city had all the …

Chris - The city has more pressing issues to report about, rather than seeing these articles on which restaurant this food or that food came from. When Aubry was the editor of Salem Patch, this site was MUCH better, in my opinion, I believe Salem Patch has lost some quality since she left. More of these articles recently have been about restaurants, generally about one closing. There is … more ›
