标题: John Kerry’s Boston Home Ticketed for Not Shoveling Snow on Sidewalk
All in Boston Herald today (Jan 30, 2015).

(1) The cover:,

“Kerry Ticketed for Not Shoveling Sidewalk
PILING ON
Flynn: Even He [Kerry] Has to Be a Good Neighbor
Howie: Maybe He Was Waiting for Global Warming.”

Note: Raymond (Ray) Flynn (1939- ; boston mayor 1984-1993) writes a sidebar:
Ray Flynn, From Beacon Hill to Southie, Money Can’t Buy Neighborhood Pride.

* Kerry’s Boston base is in Beacon Hill (naturally he spends most of the time in DC, if not traveling abroad), whereas Flynn’s, in Southie (short for South Boston)--two neighborhoods of Boston.

(2) Chris Cassidy, O’Ryan Johnson and Richard Weir, City Fine Gives Kerry Lesson in Snow Diplomacy.

(“Secretary of State John F Kerry * * * returned home to his Louisburg Square manse last night, his sidewalk newly cleared just in time * * * Director of Code Enforcement Police Steven Tankle [of Boston's Inspectional Services Department] said “the officer did not know” that it was Kerry’s house.

Note:
(a) In print, there are two photos, whose legend is as follows: “Shovel Ready: A photo [the same as that on the cover, which the URL displays] posted on Boston’s Citizens Connect website, inset, shows the unshoveled sidewalk in front of Secretary of State John F Kerry’s house that drew a $50 ticket from City Hall. The sidewalk was clear last night {Thursday, Jan 29], above.
(b) The blizzard started Monday afternoon (Jan 26) and ended Tuesday afternoon, leaving two feet of snow behind in Boston.

(3) Howie Carr, Now Liveshot Is Feeling the Heat.

Note:
(a) Mr Carr (first name Howard) is a columnist, in a right (Republican) -leaning newspaper.
(b) Mr Carr coins the term “liveshot” for the article, judging from the Web search. I can not find the meaning.
Secretary of State John F Kerry * * * returned home to his Louisburg Square manse last night, his sidewalk newly cleared just in time * * * Director of Code Enforcement Police Steven Tankle [of Boston's Inspectional Services Department] said “the officer did not know” that it was Kerry’s house.
