There were 5 Intolerable (AKA Coercive) Acts: Boston Port Act--closed port of Boston until colonists paid East India Company back for the lost tea Massachusetts Government Act--brought government of Massachusetts under British rule, stationed British governor in Massachusetts, limited town meetings to one per year Administration of Justice Act--gave accused British officers the right to move the trial to their home country (England) Quartering Act--forced colonists to open their homes to British soldiers and feed and house them for an indefinite amount of time Quebec Act--not related to Boston Tea Party, and therefore sometimes exclused from list of Coercive Acts; enlarged "Province of Quebec" and let people freely practice Roman Catholicism
The Puritans of the Massachusetts Bay Colony were led by John Winthrop, who served as the colony's first governor from 1630 to 1649. Winthrop envisioned the colony as a "city upon a hill," a model of Christian charity and governance. Under his leadership, the colony established a theocratic government and sought to create a society based on Puritan religious principles. His vision and governance significantly shaped the early development of New England.

Mr. Paterson’s current office would remain unfilled until the 2010 election, as the constitution makes no provision for filling a vacancy in the lieutenant governor’s office. Under those circumstances, Mr. Bruno would “perform all the duties of the lieutenant-governor” until a new one is elected in 2010. Those duties include acting as governor when the nominal office-holder is out of the state.
