Those Valentine’s flowers might just be from Kenya

Associated Press
FLOWER FARM—In this photo taken Monday, Feb. 1, 2016, workers pack roses for Valentine’s Day, at the AAA Growers’ farm in Nyahururu, four hours’
drive north of the capital Nairobi, in Kenya. This Valentine’s Day, there’s a good
chance your flowers came from Kenya as the cool climate and high altitude
make it perfect for growing large, long-lasting roses - propelling it to become the
fourth-largest supplier after the Netherlands, Ecuador and Colombia.

NYAHURURU, Kenya
(AP) — This Valentine’s
Day, there’s a good chance
your flowers came from Kenya.
“I know the flowers are
for giving on Valentine’s
Day,” said Phanice Cherop,
a worker at a flower farm
in Kenya. “They are very
beautiful.”
On a crisp February
morning, Cherop squeezed
through a row of shoulderhigh white roses, cut a flower and methodically placed
it in the bunch she carried.
The Kenyan-grown flower
was likely headed for a vase
in Australia, England, Japan or the United States.
Kenya’s cool climate and
high altitude make it perfect
for growing large, long-lasting roses. Such conditions
have helped make Kenya
become the world’s fourthbiggest supplier after the

that the ballot has been accepted. If the voter has marked

ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP)
— A Minnesota elementary school has kissed Valentine’s Day goodbye. Halloween, Thanksgiving and
Christmas, too.
Bruce Vento Elementary
in St. Paul is joining other
public schools in opting out
of holiday celebrations as
school officials strive to be
more culturally sensitive
and inclusive. The school
has a predominantly Asian
and black student body, and
English is a second language
for more than half of its pupils, who come from a range
of faith backgrounds.
In a letter to parents last
week, Principal Scott Masini said his rationale was to
avoid “encroaching on the
educational opportunities
of others and threatening a
culture of tolerance and respect for all.” He acknowledged it would be an unpopular decision for some.
“I have come to the difficult decision to discontinue the celebration of
the dominant holidays until we can come to a better
understanding of how the
dominant view will suppress
someone else’s view,” he
said.
The letter drew both
criticism and support as it
started circulating on social
media, with some people
praising the policy for its
sensitivity to diverse cultures and others decrying it
as political correctness. The
Star Tribune newspaper in
Minneapolis ran an editorial calling the decision misguided and urged Masini to
reconsider.
As word spread, the school
district issued a statement
saying its longstanding policy “discourages programs
and festivities that celebrate
observances unless they
are required by law.” That
means government holidays
celebrating the birthdays
of President George Washington, President Abraham
Lincoln and Martin Luther
King Jr., along with Veterans Day, are still OK.

By DENISE LAVOIE
AP Legal Affairs Writer
BOSTON (AP) — A
judge has granted a new trial to a man convicted of killing a 10-year-old Boston girl
while shooting at rival gang
members.
Joseph Cousin was convicted of second-degree
murder in the 2002 fatal
shooting of Trina Persad
as she and her siblings left
a park in the Roxbury section of Boston. Prosecutors
said the girl was shot in the
face with a sawed-off shotgun fired by Cousin, then a
member of the MagnoliaIntervale-Columbia gang.
The park was named after another child, Jermaine
Goffigan, 9, who was killed
when he was caught in gang
crossfire in 1994.
Suffolk County District
Attorney Dan Conley said
he will appeal the ruling
from Judge Janet Sanders.
The judge’s ruling, dated
Wednesday, found that an
attorney for Cousin had a
conflict of interest because
he represented Boston police officers before and during the time he represented
Cousin at his second trial.
Cousin’s first trial ended in
a mistrial.
“The problem is that
White had an economic
or personal interest, at the
time he represented Cousin, in remaining on good
terms with the Boston Police Department, thus creating a substantial risk that
the manner in which he
represented Cousin could
materially and adversely be
affected,” Sanders wrote in
her ruling.
Conley criticized the ruling and said it “does not
question the integrity of the
jury’s verdict or the sufficiency of the evidence.”
“The fact remains that
Joseph Cousin armed himself with a loaded shotgun,
pointed it out the window of
a stolen car, and pulled the
trigger, killing a 10-year-old
girl in a playground named
for
another
murdered
child.”
Cousin’s appellate lawyer,
Robert Shaw Jr., said the
judge correctly found that

anyone to examine the craft’s
controls and see writing left
by its three astronauts: Neil
Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and
Michael Collins. (Aldrin says
he’s pretty sure the calendar
was Collins’ handiwork.)
Some of the markings left
by the astronauts have to do
with maneuvers they had
to make to reach the moon,
information it was easier to
have written near the craft’s
instruments. Others writings
are less technical: “launch
day urine bags” reads an inscription on one locker. On
another: “smelly waste.”
“They just wanted to warn
themselves that this is probably a locker that they should
probably leave closed until
after the mission was over,”
said Allan Needell, a curator
of space history at the Smithsonian who oversees Apollo
artifacts.
The Apollo 11 command
module, called “Columbia,”
has been one of the star attractions at the National Air
and Space Museum since its
opening in 1976. But climbing inside has never been allowed. Even curators have
been reluctant to go inside
and risk damaging it.
The model expected to be
available online this summer
will let the public maneuver
around the craft themselves
and even print their own 3-D
model of it. Eventually, a virtual reality experience will let
visitors feel like they’re sitting
inside the capsule. To make
the model, experts spent two
weeks scanning the inside
and outside of the craft with
lasers. They also took thousands of pictures.
Needell, who has overseen
study on the command module for almost 20 years, says
even he saw new things during the model’s creation. One
piece of astronaut graffiti curators found written on a wall
was a crude calendar of July
1969. It begins on the day the
craft launched from Florida’s
Cape Canaveral, July 16,
1969, and ends with the day
the craft returned to Earth,
July 24, the only day that is
not crossed off. Needell says
that in space, the astronauts
wouldn’t have sunrise and
sunset to keep track of the
day, so the calendar would
have helped.
Needell said he called
Apollo 11’s two living astronauts, 85-year-old Michael
Collins and 86-year-old Buzz
Aldrin, to ask about the writings. Aldrin felt the calendar
“sounds like something Mike
would have done,” but it is
still “a puzzle,” Needell said.
It was Collins who was
alone in “Columbia” while
Aldrin and Neil Armstrong,
who died in 2012, descended
to the moon’s surface. There’s
nothing special written on
July 20 — the day Armstrong
became the first man on the
moon. On the capsule’s calendar, it’s just another day
that’s crossed out.
Low pressure cruising toward the Atlantic will bring scattered snow
showers to the Northeast. An upper level disturbance will bring
mixed showers to the northern Great Plains and parts of the
Intermountain West.

Today In History
By The Associated Press
Today is Saturday, Feb. 13,
the 44th day of 2016. There are
322 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlight in History:
On Feb. 13, 1861, Abraham
Lincoln was officially declared
winner of the 1860 presidential
election as electors cast their
ballots.
On this date:
In 1542, the fifth wife of
England’s King Henry VIII,
Catherine Howard, was executed for adultery.
In 1766, English economist
and demographer Thomas
Robert Malthus was born in
Surrey.
In 1914, the American Society of Composers, Authors
and Publishers, also known as
ASCAP, was founded in New
York.
In 1920, the League of Nations recognized the perpetual
neutrality of Switzerland.
In 1935, a jury in Flemington, New Jersey, found Bruno
Richard Hauptmann guilty
of first-degree murder in the
kidnap-slaying of Charles
A. Lindbergh Jr., the son of
Charles and Anne Lindbergh.
(Hauptmann was later executed.)
In 1945, during World War
II, Allied planes began bombing the German city of Dresden. The Soviets captured
Budapest, Hungary, from the
Germans.
In 1960, France exploded its
first atomic bomb in the Sahara Desert.
In 1975, a late-night arson fire set by a disgruntled
custodian broke out on the
11th floor of the north tower
of New York’s World Trade
Center; the blaze spread to six
floors, but caused no direct casualties.
In 1980, the 13th Winter
Olympics opened in Lake
Placid, New York.
In 1988, the 15th Winter
Olympics opened in Calgary,
Alberta, Canada.
In 1991, during Operation
Desert Storm, allied warplanes
destroyed an underground
shelter in Baghdad that had
been identified as a military
command center; Iraqi officials said 500 civilians were
killed.
In 1996, the rock musical
“Rent,” by Jonathan Larson,
opened off-Broadway.
Ten years ago: Auditors reported that millions of dollars
in Hurricane Katrina disaster aid had been squandered,
paying for such items as a
$450 tattoo and $375-dollara-day beachfront condos. Joey
Cheek won the men’s 500 meters, giving the United States
its second speedskating gold
medal of the Turin Games.
Five years ago: Egypt’s military leaders dissolved parliament, suspended the constitution and promised elections in
moves cautiously welcomed by
protesters who’d helped topple President Hosni Mubarak.
One year ago: Calling cyberspace the new “Wild West,”
President Barack Obama told
the private sector during a
White House cybersecurity
summit at Stanford University
that it needed to do more to
stop cyberattacks aimed at the
U.S. every day.

Dear Pet Talk: What is the most puppies a dog should have in order
to stay healthy? — Jaden Diaz-Rodruguez; Mrs. Bourque’s Fourth
Grade, South Street Elementary School, Fitchburg
Dear Jaden: The answer is ZERO. Dogs and cats (like
humans and other mammals) do not have to “have babies” in order to be healthy. Having offspring actually
stresses an animal — particularly if they have babies
when they are very young, very old, or very often. Cats
can have three litters a year — which is why it is crucial
to identify and capture stray and feral cats to limit the
population. If you get your female dog neutered early
on, she will have the maximum health benefits against
certain kinds of mammary cancer. Neutering your female dog at any age also prevents: unwanted pregnancy, uterine infection, prolapse of the vagina or cancer of
the uterus or ovary. Some animals have a difficult time
when giving birth – and may require an emergency csection (very expensive) to get the last baby out. Also,
there may be babies that are the “runt” and are unlikely to survive. Those of us who work with animals

time at Sugar Hollow Farm,

she said, which is why she has

Workshop on Wednesday,

“The kids will get some
basics on gardening and composting, make a newspaper
seed pot and plant a seed,”
Roy said. “They’ll enjoy
hearing the children’s book I
wrote, ‘Beee My Friend,’ and
have a snack and never know
they’re learning about the environment.” The second workshop is a
smaller version of the summer reading program the
farm has hosted for the last
eight years. “We base it on
the ‘Little House’ series and
the kids love hearing a story,
doing a craft and then doing

Obama’s Wishful Budget Can’t be
Taken Seriously
W
hen President Obama submitted his proposed budget one
year ago, he claimed that he wanted to
do away with the “mindless austerity”
of the sequestration, which had provided some measure of limitation on
government spending. Then in December, aided and abetted by a Republican-controlled Congress, he eradicated
those minor restrictions and replaced
mindless austerity with clueless profligacy.
Now he puts forth a budget for the
2017 fiscal year, which begins Oct. 1,
that calls for $4.15 trillion in spending,
a $223 billion increase over the current
year’s budget. His proposal, curiously
released while all eyes are focused on
the New Hampshire primary, spans
more than 2,300 pages, which, in itself,
serves as a testament to the federal government’s bloat and overreach.
The president’s budget contains $3
trillion in proposed tax increases over
the next 10 years, according to the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget. The most controversial of these is
a $10.25-per-barrel oil tax, which would
be used to fund “clean” transit projects
and low-carbon technologies such a
self-driving cars, which the private sector is already rapidly developing. With
oil prices currently hovering around
$30 a barrel, that is a roughly 35 percent
tax, which experts project would translate to a price hike of about 25 cents per
gallon at the pump. Fortunately, this is
a nonstarter for congressional Republicans.
The president’s budget message
reads like his State of the Union addresses, espousing his wish list, from
“green energy” subsidies to universal
preschool to high-speed rail and increased transit funding to $4 billion for
a K-12 computer science program to
two years of “free” community college
to apprenticeship programs to “encouraging” state paid leave policies — none
of which is the province of federal, state
and local governments.
President Obama’s budget would,
once again, expand government control
over our lives and further burden current and future generations with debt.
It is understandable that a lame-duck
president with a somewhat hostile Congress would advance a budget sprinkled
with fairy dust, but Obama’s proposal
should not be taken seriously with regard to fiscal responsibility.

Teen’s heart aches for young
cousin in midst of melodrama
DEAR ABBY: I am 18
and in my sophomore year
of college. A month ago, my
family went through some
major hardships. It came
out that “Uncle Mark” has
been cheating on my aunt
for years and is moving his
mistress to our area. They
have two children, a son in
elementary school and a
daughter, “Dana,” 13.
I feel bad for my aunt,
but I’m absolutely devastated for Dana. My Uncle
Mark has skipped all of her
school events in the wake
of this mess, and I can’t
begin to imagine how disappointed Dana must feel.
Uncle Mark is a sociopath.
He feels no empathy, manipulates others and has a
sadistic streak. Dana was
not close to her dad, but
since this mess began she’s
even less so.
Abby, I don’t want my
cousin to feel like she’s
alone. Since I’m an older
teenager, she looks up to
me. How can I be supportive, and not intrude in this
delicate situation? — SUPPORTIVE COUSIN IN
MAINE
DEAR
SUPPORTIVE:
You are kind to want to
help. Your cousin is probably experiencing a range
of emotions because of
the turmoil that’s going
on around her family. The
kindest thing to do would
be to spend time with her
when your schedule permits and allow her to vent
when she needs to, because
she will.
******
DEAR ABBY: I am a
10-year-old girl. I’m good
at math and very intelligent. I have two questions:
When I’m alone in a dark
room, I feel like I have to
run out of the room. Why?
My second question is,
what kind of job can you
get without going to college? — SMART SOUTHERN GIRL
DEAR SMART SOUTH-
ERN GIRL: Many people
of every age — especially
children and the elderly
— have a fear of the dark.
That’s why parents use
small night lights in their
children’s bedrooms and
gadgets like The Clapper
are popular.
Adults may be afraid of
tripping or running into
furniture. Teens who watch
scary movies develop a
fear of the dark because
they imagine a “monster”
is lurking out of sight who
might harm them. The solution can be as simple as
keeping a night light on or
switching a light on as you
enter a darkened area.
As to what kind of job a
person can find without going to college, discuss this
with a counselor at your
school. College may not be
for everyone, but I don’t
think it’s likely you’ll get
a well-paying job without
some advanced education
— if not in a college, then
in an apprenticeship program or a trade school with
a proven high job placement record.
******
DEAR ABBY: My girlfriend and I have been having a huge disagreement
lately. Since we can’t seem
to settle it, I’m asking for
your help. I say that because
tomatoes are technically
fruits, ketchup is a smoothie. She disagrees because
tomatoes are the only fruit
in ketchup. Please tell me
— is ketchup a smoothie?
And if so, why? — SPENCER IN ARIZONA
DEAR SPENCER: Your
question is a first. In my
opinion, ketchup is more
a puree than a smoothie.
“Smoothie” suggests a
beverage that’s drinkable,
and I don’t think ketchup
qualifies.

Questions grow over banks as profit
warnings pile up in Europe and US
PARIS (AP) — Questions
are growing over the financial health of banks, particularly in Europe and the U.S.,
as they face a toxic mix of low
economic growth, bad loans
and squeezed earnings.
France’s Societe Generale
became Thursday the latest
bank to issue a confidenceshattering profit warning,
which helped trigger a new
sell-off in financial stocks.
The bank saw its share price
stumble 12 percent and major rivals like Deutsche Bank
and UniCredit saw losses of
nearly 10 percent.
European banks are not
the only ones to suffer. Japanese bank Mitsubishi Financial fell 7 percent on Thursday. In the U.S., Morgan
Stanley, Citigroup and Bank
of America are down more
than 30 percent so far this
year.
Among the top concerns is
that the global economy will
weaken more than expected,
souring some of the loans that
banks have issued to companies around the world — particularly in distressed sectors
like the energy industry. U.S.
banks have tens of billions of
exposure to loans made to
energy companies, who have
found themselves unable to
pay back their debts due to
low energy prices.
Mike van Dulken, head of
research at Accendo Markets, says the latest weakness in bank stocks stems
from U.S. Federal Reserve
Chair Janet Yellen “warning
on current financial market
turbulence and suggesting
further rate hikes could be
delayed, which added to already raised anxiety about
BOSTON (AP) — The
former chief executive of
Anglo Irish Bank, now living
in Boston, has dropped his
fight against extradition and
agreed to return to Ireland
to face fraud charges.
Irish investigators have
accused David Drumm of
conspiring to conceal massive losses from shareholders. He left Ireland after the
bank collapsed. He moved
in 2009 to the Boston suburb of Wellesley, where he
was arrested in October.
A March 1 extradition
hearing had been scheduled.
But on Thursday, Drumm
agreed to return to Ireland.
During a hearing in federal
court, Drumm waived his
right to an extradition hearing.

few bright spots in the global
economy, which is seeing a
slowdown in China and stagnation in Japan and Europe.
The slowing of interest rate
increases in the U.S. is also
bad news for the big banks,
which have been waiting anxiously for interest rates to rise.
Since the financial crisis, the
big banks have largely grown
profits by cutting costs. Higher interest rates would mean
banks could charge more for
their loans.
The fact that many central
banks keep cutting interest
rates, pushing down market
lending rates, is further hurting banks by squeezing their
profits. Banks mainly make
money by lending, so as rates
drop, so do earnings. Investors made big bets in the second half of last year that interest rates would rise in the
U.S., so to see that bet fail
has forced investors to dump
bank shares.

quiries from college administrators, I usually give the
same answer. This answer
is the behavior or lack of
responsibility that these
people bring into the classroom will be identical to the
way they treat patients or
perform lab tests. As an example, I had EMT students
that performed so poorly
in the classroom that I told
their academic dean that if I
were ever in an accident and
one of these students (now
an EMT) attempted to treat
me that I would deny their
services until I was taken to
a hospital for treatment.
The liberal agenda found
at the elementary and high
school levels has produced
an attitude in students that
they can do anything they
want and still receive a high
grade and scholarly recognition. When backed up by
college administrators as to
grades, American students
are not attaining the disciplinary levels needed to
work in a hospital or medical testing laboratory environment. It is no wonder
we find so many Asian and
European nurses and technicians employed in hospitals and labs throughout the
country.

The situation is worsened
in some regions, particularly the eurozone and Japan, where the central banks
charge commercial banks to
deposit money with them.
Analysts at Capital Economics say that if the European Central Bank cuts
one of its key interest rates
further below zero, “this
could have adverse effects on
banks’ profitability.”
Citing ECB chief Mario
Draghi’s recent statements
that the central bank could
take more action in March,
the analysts said the ECB
“seems prepared to squeeze
banks’ profitability further
in the short term in order to
support the economy.”
The Stoxx index of European bank shares is down
20 percent in the last month,
when Draghi first mentioned
chance that the ECB might
try to offer more stimulus in
March to lower market rates.
In some markets, bad loans
are already piling up — or
have not been dealt with effectively since the global financial crisis.
That’s the case in Italy,
where banks are estimated
to hold some 350 billion euros in soured loans, or more
than 30 percent of the eurozone’s total. The government
is trying to mop up those bad
loans, but the banks are seeing their shares slide in the
meantime. Banca Monte del
Paschi, which was down 9
percent on Thursday, is down
60 percent so far this year.
More narrowly, some
banks are being targeted for
complex financial investments they have made in
recent years. That’s the case
of Deutsche Bank, which has
seen the value of its so-called
contingent convertible bonds
fall sharply. The bank has
some 350 million euros in
payments on such bonds due
by April 30, and had to issue
a statement Monday evening
assuring it had the money to
pay.

BOSTON — Beacon Hill
Roll Call records local senators’ votes on the only roll
call from the week of Feb.
8-12. There were no roll
calls in the House last week.
ILLEGAL HUNTING (S
2069) — The Senate 35-0,
approved and sent to the
House a bill that would
increase penalties for illegal hunting, also known
as poaching. Provisions include increasing the fine for
hunting bears or bobcats
with the aid of a dog or bait
from $300-$1,000 to $1,000$5,000; raising the prison
sentence from up to six
months in prison to a year
in prison; and increasing
penalties for serial poachers
who repeatedly break the
law.
The measure also makes
the Bay State a member of
the Interstate Wildlife Violator Compact, a reciprocal
agreement among 45 other
states that allows state law
enforcement agencies to
share information with those
of other states. It recognizes
suspension of hunting, fishing and trapping licenses in
all states that are members
of the compact. Any person
whose license is suspended
in a member state would
also have his or her license
suspended in all other member states in which that conviction would be a violation
resulting in suspension.
Supporters said the illegal
harming or killing of wildlife is a very serious problem that should not be tolerated. They noted the bill
would update current state
laws created more than 80
years ago, and would increase penalties which currently are so low that they
no longer serve as a deterrent. They argued that the
increase in penalties would
also reduce the black market for bear gall bladders
and other animal organs
sold for a profit.
(A “Yes” vote is for the
bill.)
Sen. Anne Gobi: Yes; Sen.
Stanley Rosenberg: President rarely votes
ALSO UP
ON BEACON HILL
INCREASE JAYWALKING FINES (S 1813) — The
Transportation Committee
held a hearing on legislation to increase the fine for
jaywalking, currently $1 for
the first three violations and
$2 for fourth and subsequent ones. The bill would
increase the fine to $25 for
a first offense, $50 for a second offense and $75 for subsequent offenses.
Pedestrians are legally
permitted to cross streets
only in designated areas
such as crosswalks. Crossing
streets outside of these areas or against “don’t walk”
signals is defined as jaywalking.
Supporters said citations
which would result in the
low fines currently in force
are rarely issued by police
officers and are not an effective deterrent. They said
jaywalking has caused many
accidents and deaths.
YELLOW DOT PROGRAM (S 1889) — The
Transportation
Committee’s agenda also included
a bill that would create the
Yellow Dot Program to assist first responders at the
scene of a car accident. The
voluntary program would allow seniors 62 years of age
and older and individuals
with a chronic disease to affix a decal with a yellow dot
to the rear window on the
driver’s side of the motor
vehicle. The dot would alert
first responders to look in
the glove compartment and
locate a yellow dot folder
compiled by the participant
which would include his or
her medical information.
Supporters said the program would help save lives by
ensuring that first responders have a list of the victim’s
health records including all
prescription drugs that he
or she uses. They said that
accident victims are often
injured or unconscious and
thus unable to communicate
information verbally to a
first responder.
OTHER TRANSPORTATION-RELATED
BILLS
— The Transportation
Committee’s hearing also
included legislation that
would require that all vehicles in a funeral procession
to turn on their emergency
flashers (H 3082); mandate
that rental car companies
allow renters the option to
return a vehicle anytime on
a Saturday or Sunday to any
rental company branch office where vehicle returns
are accepted during regular
business hours, even if the
location is closed (H 3065);
require the formation of a
special commission to study
the cost and feasibility of
implementing a ferry service that goes from Boston
Harbor to Long Island. (H
3311); and require that all
vehicles have their headlights on at all times (H
3090). Current law requires
headlights to be turned on
during the period of onehalf hour after sunset to one
half-hour before sunrise,
when visibility is reduced to
less than 500 feet or when
the windshield wipers are
being used.
WHOOPING
COUGH
(S 1993) — The House approved and sent to the Senate a proposal that would
require hospitals to provide
parents of newborns with
educational information on
whooping cough and the
availability of a vaccine to
protect against it.
Supporters said that a
re-education effort for parents of newborns about the
disease is needed because
whooping cough has reemerged in recent years and
the number of cases in the
United States has risen from
2,000 per year in the 1970s
to 32,000 in 2014.
CONDO
RECORDS
(S 713) — The House approved and sent to the Senate a bill requiring condo
associations to reimburse
legal fees incurred by any
unit owner in his or her efforts to obtain records or
documents required by law
to be provided by the association to its owners. Under
current law, established in
1974, if an association refuses to provide such records,
the only recourse available
to owners is to hire an attorney.
Supporters said it is unfair to have the owner of
a unit pay his or her attorney’s fees if a court rules
that the owner is entitled to
the documents and the association did not provide them
in a timely way. They noted
that documents are usually
requested by an owner who
wants to sell or refinance his
or her unit.
$15 PER HOUR MINIMUM WAGE FOR AIRPORT WORKERS (H 3923)
— The Committee on Labor and Workforce Development held a hearing on
a measure that would raise
the minimum wage from
$10 per hour to $15 per hour
over three years for baggage handlers, janitors, nonTSA security and screening
personnel, airplane cleaners, wheelchair assistants,
skycaps, ticket agents and
certain other employees at
Logan Airport. The wage
would be hiked to $12 this
year, $13.50 next year and
$15 in 2018.
REWARD FOR WHISTLE-BLOWERS (H 3943)
— The Committee on Labor
and Workforce Development’s agenda also included
a measure that would reward any person who reports that an individual is
participating in the state’s
“underground economy.”
The whistle-blower would
receive 10 percent of any tax
revenue recovered.
The underground economy is a term commonly understood to include people
working “under the table”
for cash that is not reported to the IRS and Massachusetts Department of
Revenue. It also includes
many other illegal activities including concealment
or misrepresentation by individuals or businesses of
the actual number of their
employees to avoid payroll
taxes, insurance, licensing,
safety or other regulatory
requirements.
CHILD’S
TERMINAL
ILLNESS (H 84) — The
Committee on Children,
Families and Persons with
Disabilities held a hearing
on legislation that would
create a pilot program to
provide a one-time $10,000
low-interest loan to 30 individuals to assist them in
paying the expenses directly
resulting from terminal illnesses suffered by their children.
During the week of Feb.
8-12, the House met for a
total of 28 minutes and the
Senate met for a total of one
hour and 15 minutes.

‘Millennial Engagement Initiative’ launched
BOSTON — Sen. President Stan Rosenberg on
Wednesday
announced
that Sen. Eric P. Lesser will
spearhead a new “Millennial Engagement Initiative”
for the Massachusetts Senate.
The initiative aims to create a dialogue with millennials across the Commonwealth about the issues that
matter most to them, including student debt, social media privacy and the new “gig
economy.”
“Last year the Senate listened to the concerns of
thousands of residents during our Commonwealth
Conversations tour. This
Initiative focuses on the
concerns of millennials, who
have important perspectives
and ideas that deserve to
be heard,” Rosenberg said.
“Sen. Lesser and I are passionate about making sure
we’re out there, talking with
young people and bringing
their insights back to the
Senate.”
“It’s important for us to
learn more about what state
government can do to promote policies that help engage millennials. Together,
we can make progress on
specific issues that most
directly impact my generation,” said Lesser, who at
age 30 is the youngest member of the Massachusetts
Senate.
Rosenberg and Lesser
will host the initiative’s first
event this Friday, Feb. 12,
at 3 p.m. with a roundtable
at TechSpring, a healthcare
innovation center located
in Springfield’s downtown
Innovation District. The
roundtable will include a

“Young people are eager
to make a difference, and
ready to take a leadership
role in our state. The purpose of this initiative is to
make sure their Senate is
responsive and making the
concerns of young people a
priority,” Lesser said.
According to an October
2014 study by the White
House Council of Economic
Advisers, millennials accounted for over one-third
of the U.S. population in
2013 and are the most diverse generation in the postWorld War II era.

and then vegetable crops.”
Kenya is the sixth-largest flower exporter to the
U.S., according to the
U.S. Customs and Border
Protection. As east Africa’s agricultural powerhouse, Kenya supplies the
European Union with 38
percent of its cut-flower
imports, partly due to a
tax-exemption trade agreement.
Mr. Mules, who farmed
in Zimbabwe before being
evicted under President
Robert Mugabe’s land reforms, said prolonged rains
due to the El Nino weather
pattern have pressured the
company’s bottom line.
“The timing of Valentine’s Day is perfect for
Kenya because it falls in
the dry season,” he said.
“Unfortunately, this year,
due to el Nino, it has
lengthened the so called
‘short rains.’ Instead of
stopping in November we
were getting rain in January.”
Another lament is about
Russia.
In 2012, flower exports
to Russia, the world’s fifthlargest flower importer,
began shrinking due to
its tanking economy and
depreciating ruble. Russian military intervention
in Ukraine in 2014 only
“worsened the situation,”
said Cindy van Rijswick, a
fruit, vegetables and floriculture analyst at Dutch
bank Rabobank.
“A more indirect effect is
that, because of the declining cut-flowers exports to
Netherlands, Ecuador and
Colombia.
Cherop, a 29-year-old
single mother of two,
works at AAA Growers’
Simba farm in Nyahururu,
four hours’ drive north
of the capital, Nairobi.
It’s the one of company’s
four 20-hectare (50-acre)
farms that make them Kenya’s third-largest grower
of vegetables and flowers
combined. Cherop was one
of 600 workers bused in
from surrounding villages
to pick or pack thousands
of roses to be sent around
the world ahead of Feb. 14.
Flowers are intricately
tied to the global economy. When it collapsed in
2008, the cut-flower trade
lost $1.5 billion the following year. In 2013, global
exports of cut flowers, cut
foliage, living plants and
flower bulbs amounted to
$20.6 billion, more than
twice the amount in 2001.
International
events,
including Russia’s war in
Ukraine and plummeting
oil prices, have shaped
flower fortunes for numerous Kenyan farms. Sales
to oil-producing nations,
such as Norway and those
in the Middle East, have
dropped due to their reduced spending power,
said Britain-born Andrew
Mules, general manager
of AAA Growers’ Simba
farm.
“Up until two years ago,
flowers would have been
the most profitable part of
the farm,” he said. “Now it
is our third after soft fruit

Principal Kelly Sullivan

“Children are predisposed to have fun, and once

Dana Malaskova, AAA

The drop in Russian demand isn’t translating into
a drop of the price of a
bouquet this Valentine’s

a director at Kenya’s Horticultural Council.
“There is always a big

and people will always be
buying roses, so the price
goes up,” he said.
The

from 86,480 tons in 2006

The Springfield Sportsman’s Show will be running at the
Big E in West Springfield this month. This is major show
with literally something for every outdoors person. The
Springfield Sportsmen’s Show is undisputedly the largest
“pure” sportsmen’s show in the Northeast! This mega sporting event takes place Feb. 19-21, 2016 at the Eastern States
Exposition, home of the “BIG E,” West Springfield, Massachusetts. The show includes the best of hunting, fishing,
boating and adventure recreation that the outdoor world has
to offer all bundled together in one great event. it is loaded with great show features including educational hunting
seminars, fishing seminars, and fun exhibits like our big casting pool, the retrieving pool, and the giant fresh water fish
aquarium!
The show is a great family take with demonstrations on
many different hunting and fishing skills. There are hunting
dog demonstrations, lecturers on varied topics and hundreds
of booths featuring products and destinations. The food is
also very good and my daughters always enjoyed our trips
there each year. Show hours are Friday 12 to 8 p.m., Saturday 9 a.m., to 7 p.m. and Sunday 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. You really
should check out the web page at osegsportsmens.com to
see how many interesting exhibits there will be for you to
check out.
The Mahar Fish’N Game Club Game Supper will be held
this year on Thursday, March 17 at the school cafeteria. The
popular event features a variety of fish and game dishes prepared by a veteran kitchen crew that has been cooking up
wild game dishes to perfection for a long time. The appetizers
alone are worth the price of admission and they are followed
by a hearty meal featuring a variety of fish and game dishes.
The meal is made possible by the generosity of local sportsmen who donate fish and game they have in their freezers to
make the meal possible. One very attractive incentive for the
meat donors is the fact that each year the club offers a black
powder rifle as a raffle prize that the donors are entered in a
drawing to win. High school and middle school members of
the Mahar Fish’N Game Club will be receiving tickets next
week and there will be some at area outlets later this month.
The club, like so many others, has been frustrated in the effort to hold their annual ice fishing derby.
Mahar will be the site of the Massachusetts National
Archery in the Schools Tournament on Feb. 27. The winning team will be eligible to compete in the NASP National
Tournament in May. Last year over 8,000 young people were
involved in that competition. Mahar students are busy getting ready for the shoot and the activity has sparked growing
interest.
In 2016, MassWildlife is celebrating 150 Years of Conservation with a variety of events including a speaker series. Be
inspired, hone your skills as a naturalist, and try something
new! Hear from our staff and our partners as they discuss a
variety of current conservation issues and programs. Learn
how you can help contribute to projects that rely on public
input and observations. In addition to the lectures, we will
also host a variety of field outings that highlight Massachusetts wildlife and habitats. All lectures are free and open to
the public and will be held at 7 p.m., at MassWildlife Field
Headquarters, 1 Rabbit Hill Rd. in Westborough. Several
field outings will take place at locations throughout the state.
The first lecture in the series, Wildlife Journey in Time:
The History of Wildlife in Massachusetts, is on Feb. 18. Join
us on a time travel trip that will focus on the history of wildlife in Massachusetts starting from early settlement through
the present. MassWildlife’s Marion Larson will explain how
changes in the landscape changed wildlife populations and
people from the colonial era through the present. You’ll
learn why the Division of Fisheries and Wildlife was created
and how the agency’s role in fish and wildlife conservation
has changed with the times. Speculate on the future of fish
and wildlife and how you can play a part in it. The talk begins
at 7 p.m., at the new MassWildlife Field Headquarters building, 1 Rabbit Hill Rd. in Westborough. All talks are free and
open to the public. The public is invited to all events as the
agency celebrates this milestone.
The details for the local meeting about rattlesnakes have
been finalized. MassWildlife invites the public to an informational meeting about the plan to establish a small population of endangered rattlesnakes at the Quabbin Reservoir.
The meeting will be held on Tuesday, February 23, 2016, at
7 p.m. at the R.C. Mahar Regional High School, 507 South
Main St. in Orange.
NFL fines Talib, Jackson, Webb
Denver Broncos fiery cornerback Aqib Talib was fined
a total of $26,044 on Friday for taunting and face mask
fouls in the Super Bowl.
Teammate Malik Jackson was docked $8,681 for unnecessary roughness and Carolina third-string quarterback Joe Webb was fined $8,681 for unnecessary roughness on the final play of the game.
Talib was whistled for taunting in the first quarter,
keeping a Carolina drive alive. He later grabbed wide
receiver Corey Brown’s face mask following a 13-yard
catch at the Denver 2, essentially a 1-yard penalty that
preceded Carolina’s only touchdown.
Afterward, Talib admitted he grabbed Brown’s face
mask on purpose to send a message and was expecting
to get fined, adding: “But hey, we’re world champs.”

NASCAR opens 2016 season
without 2 of its biggest stars
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla.
(AP) — Jeff Gordon will be
in the booth and Tony Stewart
in a bed when the NASCAR
season begins.
Neither NASCAR star will
be in a car when Daytona International Speedway opens
Friday for preparations for
the Feb. 21 season-opening
Daytona 500. Gordon, arguably NASCAR’s biggest star,
retired at the end of last season and the four-time champion will now be a Fox analyst.
He has been highly visible
during his newly acquired free
time, and was on an all-terrain
vehicle trip with Stewart a
week ago when the three-time
champion crashed. Stewart
fractured a vertebra and lay in
the sand alone for 90 minutes
waiting for his group to find
him and get him to a hospital.
The accident has sidelined
Stewart for the beginning of
his final season as a NASCAR
driver, denying him a chance
to finally win the Daytona
500. He has come heartbreakingly close in his 17 previous
tries and spoke last month of
his desire to add that win to
his resume.
Instead, he will watch the
race on television as he awaits
approval to travel.
What Stewart will be missing is the start of what is expected to be a dramatically
improved season with plenty
of story lines.
Kyle Busch will attempt to
defend his Sprint Cup title,
which he snatched from 2014
champion Kevin Harvick. Defending Daytona 500 winner
Joey Logano will be chasing
a championship berth he was
denied last year because a
feud with Matt Kenseth.
The drivers will all be using
a new rules package that they
pushed for during a new era
of increased communication
between NASCAR and its
participants. Denny Hamlin
spearheaded a driver council
last year at a time when the
on-track product was practically unwatchable, with rules
that made passing very difficult and catching the leader a
daunting task.
As NASCAR tried a variety
of different packages, the drivers were vocal in the desire
for less downforce. Through
months of wide-ranging conversations, the drivers secured
the rules package they wanted
and finally feel that they have
a voice in decision-making.
The hope is that the racing
will be more entertaining this
year.
The field has been cut
from 43 cars to 40, and there
are only four open slots each

week to teams that aren’t
guaranteed a spot in the field
through NASCAR’s new
franchise system. NASCAR
is also replacing its “greenwhite-checkered” system used
late in races with an “overtime
line” that will vary by track.
Some other things to know
heading into the season opener:
-----CHAMP RETURNS: Kyle
Busch begins the defense of
his Sprint Cup championship at the same track that
cost him a chunk of the 2015
season. Busch broke his right
leg and left foot when his car
slammed into a concrete wall
during the Xfinity Series race
at Daytona. He missed the
Daytona 500 and 10 more
races last year, yet a midsummer hot streak propelled him
into the Chase and his first
Cup title followed. Daytona
has since installed more than
8,500 feet of energy-absorbing “soft walls.”
LOGANO
DEFENDS:
Joey Logano won the Daytona 500 last year, a milestone
victory to kick off the best
season of his career. Logano
even reeled off three straight
wins during the Chase before
he was eliminated, ending
his bid for his first Cup title.
Logano is trying to become
first driver to win consecutive
Daytona 500s since Sterling
Marlin (1994-95). He was
eliminated after Matt Kenseth intentionally wrecked him
at Martinsville.
DAYTONA RISING: The
$400 million Daytona Rising
project is complete and will be
a featured aspect of the season opener. The massive renovation to NASCAR’s most
storied track should drastically improve fan experience
and maybe help capture the
attention of future generations. The three-year project
removed backstretch seating
and completely changed the
front-stretch
grandstands,
turning them into the world’s
first “motorsports stadium.”
The overhaul includes elaborate, corporate-sponsored fan
entrances, more than 1,400
high-definition
televisions
and more diverse food and
beverage options.
CHARTER
SYSTEM:
NASCAR dramatically overhauled its business model this
week, shifting to a franchiselike system that is intended to
provide financial stability for
team owners after decades of
heavy reliance on sponsors.
The change gets away from
the independent contractor
model that had been used
since NASCAR’s inception in
1948. The 36 charters handed
out to team owners guarantee revenue and a position in
what will now be a 40-car Cup
field, down from 43.
ROOKIES TO WATCH:
This season’s rookie class
could go down as one of the
best in recent years. Chase
Elliott headlines the field, replacing the retired Jeff Gordon in the No. 24 Chevrolet.
Chris Buescher, last year’s
Xfinity champ, joins Elliott in
a class that also includes Ryan
Blaney, Brian Scott and Jeffrey Earnhardt. Blaney will
have to attempt to race his
way into the field each week
because his Wood Brothers
Racing team was left out of
NASCAR’s new charter system.
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla.
(AP) — It’s been 10 years
since the Wood Brothers
completed a full NASCAR
season, and they stopped
trying to make it to the track
each week in 2009.
NASCAR’s oldest race
team didn’t have the funds
to keep up with the competition, and a scaled-back approach was what the familyowned organization felt was
best for the famed No. 21
Ford.
“It would have been an
embarrassment to our family, our uncles and our dad,
if we just showed up and
took a check,” said team coowner Len Wood, the son of
founder Glenn Wood. “We
didn’t. We tried to perform
every time we showed up. It
didn’t always work out that
way, but that is what we tried
to do.”
Their approach led to one
of the biggest moments in
team history: Trevor Bayne’s
2011 upset victory in the
Daytona 500. It was the sixth
Daytona 500 victory for the
team, but first since David
Pearson in 1976.
They consider Bayne’s
win proof that their strategy was best for the proud
Virginians, even though
it cost them one of the 36
coveted charters that were
created this week as part of
NASCAR’s new franchising
model. Only teams that have
attempted every race since
2013 were eligible for one
of the charters, which guarantee starting spots in the
field each week and provide
financial security to owners.
The charter system leaves
just four open spots in the
40-car field each week, and
the Wood Brothers will have
to qualify before every race.
The timing is bittersweet
for the Woods: This dramatic shift in the NASCAR
business model came as the
team prepared to return to
a full schedule with hotshot
rookie Ryan Blaney.
Blaney ran 16 races for the
Woods last year and failed
to qualify for three others
because rain washed out the
session.
Their faith in Blaney,
who is on loan from Team
Penske, and belief that they
have made major on-track
improvements have the organization convinced that
being denied a charter won’t
cripple them.
“I think with our performance this last year, qualifying in these races shouldn’t
be an issue as long as we perform like we know we can,”
Len Wood said. “We have
talked about in the past that
as long as it is a performance
related issue like we can’t
run fast enough, that is when
we have a problem. It is hard
to overcome something like
that. If you are fast enough
every week, that shouldn’t
be an issue.”
There were technically
two charters up for sale because Michael Waltrip Racing shuttered its organization in November. MWR
co-owner Rob Kauffman,
the architect of the charter
system, is free to sell them to
the highest bidder and has
completed deals with Joe
Gibbs Racing and StewartHaas Racing to transfer the
slots.
Eddie Wood said he was
never in position to obtain
one of Kauffman’s charters,
which went to Gibbs for Carl
Edwards and SHR for Kurt
Busch.
“It was pretty evident that
the two that Rob had were
going to go to the 19 and 41,
so we couldn’t compete with
that, so we really never went
there,” co-owner Eddie
Wood said. “I didn’t think I
could outbid Gene Haas and
Joe Gibbs.”
Fans have taken to social
media to blast the Woods’
exclusion from the charter
system, but team executives
understand the process. The
tough part was explaining
the situation to Hall of Famer Glenn Wood, who will
travel to Daytona on Saturday for the 70th consecutive
year.
“The hard part for him
was that there was this big
announcement,
confetti
flying and we were kind of
not a part of it,” Jon Wood,
Glenn’s grandson, said.
“Maybe we should have explained it beforehand because it would have made
more sense and not been
such a surprise and catch
him off guard.
“My grandpa didn’t start
this team in 1950 to make
a pile of money. What you
don’t do is change your business model. You don’t embarrass yourself.”
If they could do it all over
again and not scale back
after the 2008 economic
downturn, the team doesn’t
think it would change a thing
— even though that decision ultimately cost them a
chance at a charter.
“If you told me I could
go back six years and if we
wanted to run all the races
and you would have a charter, would you swap? No, I
probably wouldn’t,” Eddie
Wood said. “We wanted
to race in a model that fit
us at the time ... which was
race part-time but when we
show up we are competitive
and spending enough money
to get all the right stuff, the
right people and right driver.
“That actually turned into
a Daytona 500 win. You
can’t take that away. That
was one of the biggest wins
in our career.”
Mets Jenry Mejia 1st to draw lifetime drug ban
NEW YORK (AP) —
Mets reliever Jenrry Mejia
became the first player to
receive a lifetime ban under
Major League Baseball’s
drug agreement after testing
positive for a performanceenhancing substance for the
third time.
The commissioner’s office
said Friday that Mejia tested
positive for the anabolic steroid Boldenone, which athletes have used to increase
muscle mass and once was
popular for use in horse racing.
The 26-year-old righthander was the Mets’ closer
in 2014, then was suspended
for 80 games last April 11
following a positive test for
Stanozolol, a drug popular
among bodybuilders. At the
time, he said, “I can honestly say I have no idea how a
banned substance ended up
in my system.”
Mejia returned July 12,
appeared in seven games for
New York, then was banned
for 162 games on July 28 after a positive test for Stanozolol and Boldenone.
“I think not surprisingly there’s a tremendous
amount of disappointment, I
think to some extent, anger,
to some extent, amazement
that this could happen so
soon after a previous suspension was completed,”
Mets general manager Sandy Alderson said then. “This
is the consequence of making bad choices.”
The Mets said Friday they
“were deeply disappointed.”
The Major League Baseball
Players Association declined
comment, and a spokesman
for Mejia’s agents said the
pitcher had no comment.
Under pressure from
Congress to toughen their
drug program, major league
players and teams agreed in
November 2005 that a third
positive test for PEDs would
result in a lifetime ban. His
162-game suspension had
matched the longest under
the big league program, a
year-long ban served by the
Yankees’ Alex Rodriguez in
2014 that originally was 211
games before an arbitrator
reduced it.
Mejia may apply one year
from now to baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred for
reinstatement, and Manfred at his discretion has
the power to let Mejia back
in baseball — but no earlier
than for the 2018 season. If
an application is made and
denied, Mejia could ask
baseball’s arbitrator to end
the ban, claiming the penalty
is without “just cause.” The
arbitrator cannot reduce the
ban to less than two years.
Outfielder Josh Hamilton,
then in the minor leagues,
was suspended several times
for drugs of abuse from
2003-05 but was allowed to
return each time. During a
time when there was not a
drug agreement, Steve Howe
was suspended for life by
Commissioner Fay Vincent
in 1992 after the pitcher’s
seventh drug- or alcoholrelated incident. Arbitrator
George Nicolau said doctors concluded Howe suffered from Attention Deficit
Hyperactive Disorder and
cut the suspension to time
served, which was 119 days.
Brian Vickers set for Daytona return
DAYTONA
BEACH,
Fla. (AP) — Brian Vickers
might have been more easily found on TV this week
pitching a blood-thinning
drug instead of practicing
for the Daytona 500.
His ubiquitous commercial — which also features
Miami Heat star Chris Bosh
and golfer Arnold Palmer
— was about the only way
Vickers stayed in the spotlight for most of the last
year.
Bosh is back from his
blood clot scare and returned to All-Star form.
Vickers is ready for a
comeback from his own
health woes, too. His once
promising career derailed
by recurring blood clots,
Vickers will drive the No.
14 Chevrolet in the Daytona 500 for Stewart-Haas
Racing. Tony Stewart is
sidelined indefinitely with a
fractured vertebra.
Vickers has no promises
of another start. Yet after
missing 34 races last season,
he will gladly take a seat in
NASCAR’s biggest race.
“I wasn’t sure if I would
ever be in the Daytona 500
again,” Vickers said Friday
at Daytona International
Speedway. “Here I am.”
Vickers was medically
cleared to race this week. He
can’t compete while being
treated for the clots because
the blood thinners increase
his risk of serious internal
bleeding if he is hurt in a
crash. He worked with doctors for a year to find the
right plan that allows him
to race safely and keep him
protected from clots.
“I wasn’t sure if I’d ever
race again,” he said.
The 32-year-old Vickers
has three wins in 318 career
Sprint Cup starts, but only
raced a full schedule twice
since 2009. Vickers is paired
with rookie crew chief Michael Bugarewicz for Speedweeks.
“We’ll be well prepared by
the time we get to the 500,”
Bugarewicz said.
Vickers was picked in
part because of his success
at restrictor-plate tracks.
His first career Cup victory
came in 2006 at Talladega
Superspeedway. He finished
second in 2014 in the July
race at Daytona and has
made nine career starts in
the Daytona 500.
Stewart, 0 for 17 in the
Daytona 500, was hurt riding an all-terrain vehicle in
the desert in California last
week. Stewart hasn’t won
a race since 2013 and had
only three top-10 finishes
last season. Stewart still had
a Daytona presence in absentia — he used the livestreaming app Periscope to
answer fan questions as he
walked on a treadmill.
“It’s unfortunate that
this is the car I’m in because it means Tony’s not
here,” Vickers said. “I can
understand what he’s going
through, unfortunately.”
Vickers has been sidelined four times for health
issues since 2010.
He missed the final five
races of the 2013 season
because he was placed on
blood thinners to treat a
blood clot in his right calf.
He also missed 25 races during the 2010 season when
clots were discovered in his
legs and lungs.
No players have been
banned for life under the
minor league drug program.
A Dominican signed by
the Mets in 2007, Mejia
reached the major leagues
in 2010 and became their
closer in 2014, when he had
28 saves in 31 chances. He is
9-14 with a 3.68 ERA in 18
starts and 95 relief appearances.
Mejia began last year
as the Mets’ closer, but
couldn’t get loose while
warming up on opening day
at Washington and went on
the disabled list with elbow
inflammation.
Because of the suspensions, Mejia received just
$496,311 of his $2,595,000
salary last year. He will receive none of his $2.47 million salary this year.
In Mejia’s absence, Jeurys
Familia became New York’s
closer, and the Mets went on
to reach the World Series
for the first time since 2000.
New York lost the World
Series to Kansas City in five
games.

Boston robbery suspects
all wearing GPS devices
BOSTON (AP) — It didn’t take Boston
police long to track down three suspects in
an armed convenience store robbery.
Authorities say the men were all wearing court-ordered GPS devices for unrelated cases, which placed them inside the
Dorchester store and allowed investigators
to track them to an apartment a block away.
Police say the suspects entered the store
at 6 p.m. Wednesday. All three wore masks
and one had a gun.
They made off with cash and cigarettes.
All three pleaded not guilty at their arraignment Thursday. Two had their bail revoked in prior cases. A third was held on
$50,000 bail.
The prosecutor said “all their GPSs
pinged to the store at the time of the robbery.” Police also found evidence in the
apartment that tied them to the robbery.
Animal rights protest off
after ‘greased pig’ dust-up
NEWPORT, N.H. (AP) — An international animal advocacy group launched a
protest against a New Hampshire winter
carnival event billed as a “Greased Pig on
Ice,” but withdrew it after learning there’s
no pig in the act — just a man on skates
in a pig costume with
dollar bills tied to his
tail.
Steve Smith, an organizer of the 100th
Newport Winter Carnival, said People for
the Ethical Treatment
of Animals, or PETA,
launched its alert last
week despite his reassurances that no pigs
would be harmed
during the Saturday
event. Smith said he
received about 100
emails from concerned animal lovers.
PETA spokeswoman Daphna Nachminovitch said Smith
did not clarify what
the event would entail. She said the updated information is
excellent news for the
pigs.
Smith said Thursday that he assured
a PETA investigator
in a Feb. 5 email that
no animals would be
harmed during the
event. The group
never challenged or
questioned him about
it before writing a detailed email alert, he
said. It talked about
“subjecting
these
highly sensitive animals to such a chaotic
and violent ordeal
rife with screaming
participants.” It also
mentioned capturing
the pigs and stuffing
them into barrels.
“How can they
know what we’re
doing if they never
even bothered to ask
what we’re doing?”
Smith said. “If they
just asked, ‘What are
your plans?’ I would
have told them.”

Valentine Moon in Taurus. Some say romantic love is a relatively
new phenomenon in the scope of human history; others point to
romantic sentiments written on Sumerian clay tablets dating thousands of years B.C. However old or new your own love may be, and
whatever form it takes, the Taurus moon promises an expression
that delights the senses.
No-Drama Moon. At the heart of every good story there’s drama,
which of course relies on conflict: no conflict, no drama. As much
as we need the good stories, today many would trade that for a
peaceful one in which everyone gets along and lives happily ever
after. It could happen under this communicative Gemini moon angling Mercury in Aquarius so sweetly.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). According to some scientists it only
takes four minutes to decide whether you like someone a lot. As
far as you’re concerned, that’s way too long to vacillate. You know
immediately, and you act on that knowledge, too.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Trying to save time is silly if you don’t
know what you’re going to spend it on later. Also, beware of the
unforeseen complications inherent in the so-called “shortcut” of the
day.

Did you know?
V
alentine’s Day is a time
when men and women
express their love and affection for one another, which
can be accomplished in a
variety of ways. For many
celebrants, food and beverages are part
of the festivities. According to
the USDA
and Gallup,
in the United
States Valentine’s
Day is the bubbliest occasion after New Year’s Eve and
Thanksgiving. That’s because
around $9 million is spent
on sparkling wine products.
What pairs well with that bubbly? Why chocolate, of course.
Fifty-eight million pounds of
chocolate candy is purchased
during the week of Valentine’s
Day, when the National Confectioners Association says 36
million heart-shaped boxes of
chocolate are sold. Cupid’s connection to love and the Valentine’s Day holiday
H
earts tend to be aflutter on Valentine’s
Day, and Cupid just might
be the scoundrel behind
those starry-eyed feelings.
Just who is this arrow-wielding Cupid and how did he
become associated with Valentine’s Day?
God of love and desire
Ancient Greeks and
Romans were prolific storytellers and used mythology to explain many of the
mysteries of life. Certain
feelings and happenings on
Earth were attributed to the
moods and actions of Gods
who presided over the people.
In Roman mythology, Cupid was the god of desire,
erotic love, attraction and
affection. His Greek counterpart was Eros, while in
Latin Cupid was known as
Amor. According to myth,
Cupid was the son of the
winged messenger Mercury
and Venus, the goddess of
love. Cupid’s machinations
were often guided by his
mother’s hand, and matchmaking remained his most
well-known trait.
As time went on and
Christian influences pushed
out ancient Greek and Roman beliefs, Cupid was seen
as an angel of heavenly and
earthly love. Cupid could
easily be mistaken for many
other angelic cherubim portrayed in artwork during the
Renaissance period. Eventually Cupid became a popular icon of Valentine’s Day.
Cupid’s appearance
Cupid has appeared in different ways in illustrations
and other artwork throughout history. Sometimes he is
depicted as a winged, chubby infant carrying a bow and
a quiver of arrows. Classical
Greek art depicts Cupid as a
slender, winged youth.
The reason Cupid has
wings is because lovers are
known to be flighty and
change their moods and
minds with some frequency.
He is boyish because love
is irrational, and he carries
arrows and a torch because
love can both wound but
also inflame the heart.
Cupid has traditionally
been portrayed as benevolent, if not mischievous. After all, his goal is to bring
two lovers together. His
arsenal was equipped with
two different kinds of arrows. People pierced by
gold-tipped arrows would
succumb to uncontrollable
desire. Those afflicted by an
arrow with a blunt tip of lead
desired only to flee.
Cupid and Psyche
Cupid may have been responsible for bringing many
people together with his special arrows, but he also was
granted the opportunity to
experience love himself. According to the myth of “Cupid and Psyche,” Psyche was
a beautiful woman whose
appearance rivaled even
that of Venus. People grew
enchanted by her beauty
and started to neglect the
worship of Venus. Jealous of
this attention, Venus asked
Cupid to make Psyche fall
in love with a monster. But
when Cupid saw how beautiful Psyche was, he accidentally dropped the arrow
meant for her and pricked
himself instead. He immediately became enamored
with her.
Psyche, who had not been
able to marry like her other
sisters, feared she had been
cursed by the gods in some
way. She was sent away to
avoid the premonition of
marrying a monster, but
Cupid, hidden from sight,
ended up visiting Psyche and
gaining her trust and affection. The pair then married,
although Psyche had never
seen her husband in the light
of day because he forbade
her to look upon him. After
all, he was a god and she was
a mortal.
One night Psyche disobeyed Cupid’s edict and
snuck a peek by candlelight. She was amazed by his
beauty and became startled,
wounding herself on one of
his arrows. Psyche ended up
dropping hot wax on Cupid,
which woke him up and he
ran off.
Psyche wandered endlessly trying to find her lost husband and had to go through
various trials established by
a still-jealous Venus. In one
of her trials, she ended up
getting put to sleep, but Cupid revived her and pleaded
with Jupiter to make Psyche
immortal and let her be his
true wife. Jupiter ultimately
granted that wish.
Cupid will forever be connected to the concepts of
love and affection, which is
why he has become an unofficial symbol of Valentine’s
Day.

MWCC’s President Asquino announces intent to retire in 2017
GARDNER — Mount
Wachusett Community College President Daniel M.
Asquino on Wednesday announced his intention to retire in January 2017.
Dr. Asquino has served as
president of MWCC since
August 1987 and is currently
the longest-serving public
higher education president
in Massachusetts. Under
his leadership, MWCC has
grown exponentially in size,
stature and academic services.
Enrollment has grown to
over 12,000 credit and noncredit students, satellite campuses have been established
in Leominster, Fitchburg, and
Devens, and the number of
academic programs has expanded to over 75 associate
degree and certificate options.
During his tenure at MWCC,
Dr. Asquino has established
the college as a state and national leader in the areas of
workforce development and
economic development; dual
enrollment and K-12 partnerships; civic engagement and
service learning; veteran services; and renewable energy
and sustainability.
“It has been an honor and
a privilege,” Dr. Asquino
said in an announcement to
the college and greater community. “I can say without
reservation that it has been a
joy to come to work each and
every day. For that, I thank
the hard-working students,
faculty, staff and alumni of
Mount Wachusett Community College and our many
community partners for their
inspiration and support.”
“President Asquino has
transformed Mount Wachusett Community College
during his time at the helm
of this great institution,” said
MWCC Board of Trustees
Chair Tina Sbrega. “What
was a one-campus college
with fewer than 1,500 students when he arrived 30
years ago, is today a thriving
four-campus college deeply
connected to the communities we serve.”
Sbrega praised Dr. Asquino for his deep commitment
to community partners.
“President Asquino really
listens to the needs of business leaders, non-profits,
K-12 educators and all of the
North Central Massachusetts
regional partners.” Sbrega expressed deep appreciation for
Dr. Asquino’s leadership on
behalf of the Board of Trustees. “We have been so very
fortunate to have such an innovative leader as President
Asquino.
“President Asquino not
only cared deeply about his
students and the college, but
he worked closely with countless community partners to
ensure that the college and its
offerings were relevant. This
entire community is better
for his leadership and he will
leave a pair of very big shoes
to fill.”
Dr. Asquino began his career in public higher education in 1971 as assistant to the
president of the Massachusetts Board of Regional Com-
munity Colleges. He went
on to serve as assistant dean
of administration at Bristol
Community College, and
dean of administration and
development at Cape Cod
Community College before
being appointed MWCC’s
second president.
He is a charter member of
the Massachusetts College
Success Campaign, and The
Democracy
Commitment,
as well as the American College and University Presidents’ Climate Commitment
(ACUPCC).
Dr. Asquino currently
chairs the Massachusetts
Community College Council’s Labor Relations Committee. In addition, he is a
past member of the American Association of Community Colleges Commission
on Communications and
Marketing, Commission on
Diversity, and Commission
on Workforce Development.
He has twice chaired the
Massachusetts Committee of
Community College Presidents and is a past chair of
the College Board’s National
Community College Advisory
Panel. He is a member and
past two-term chair of the
New England College Coun-
cil, and a member of the Massachusetts Campus Compact
Executive Board of Directors.
Locally, Dr. Asquino serves
as an officer and past chair
of the United Way of North
Central Massachusetts Board
of Directors, officer and past
chair of the Boys & Girls Club
of Fitchburg and Leominster
and past chair of Greater
Gardner and North Central
Massachusetts Chambers of
Commerce. He is a member
and past chair of the Board of
Trustees for Heywood Hospital, and the GFA Supervisory
Board.
He is the recipient of
many community and national awards, including the
Community Leader Award
from the UMass MemorialHealthAlliance
Hospital
Foundation; the Distinguished Citizen Award from
the Nashua Valley Council
Boy Scouts of America; the
Dr. Robert H. Goldman
Community Service Award;
the Greater Gardner Chamber of Commerce Citizen of
the Year and Community Service awards; the Nashoba Valley Chamber of Commerce’s
Leadership Award; the Governor’s Pride in Performance
Award; Enterprise Bank’s
Celebration of Excellence
Community Service Award;
and the National Council for
Marketing and Public Relations Pacesetter Award.
Dr. Asquino holds a Ph.D.
and M.P.A. in Public Administration and Political Science
and a B.A. in Economics and
Political Science from the
University of Massachusetts
at Amherst and Southeastern
Massachusetts
University,
now UMass Dartmouth. He
has taught public administration and business administration courses at all college levels, including at the associate,
baccalaureate, master’s and
doctoral levels.
A nationwide search for a
new leader for MWCC will
be conducted under the leadership and authority of the
MWCC Board of Trustees
and the Massachusetts Board
of Higher Education. During
that time, Dr. Asquino will
continue to lead the institution to ensure a seamless
transition.
“I can promise you that I
will continue to give 100 percent every day and partner
with all of you so that there
is no loss in the momentum
that has been our hallmark,”
he said.
MARLBOROUGH
—
February is here and while
known for its celebration
of past presidents, consumers often look forward
to substantial sales during Presidents’ Day on big
ticket items such as new
cars. Better Business Bureau (BBB) serving Massachusetts, Maine, Rhode
Island and Vermont, offers
the following tips for those
who are ready to take on
Presidents’ Day deals.
“Savvy shoppers should
plan ahead and stay mindful
of their budget,” says Paula
Fleming, spokesperson for
the local BBB. “By developing a plan in advance and
being aware of sales and discounts, consumers are more
likely to have a successful
and stress-free experience.”
In 2015, BBB received 884
complaints on new and used
car dealers regarding guarantee or warranty issues,
problems with the product
or service, and advertising
or sales issues. However, last
year, customer reviews surpassed complaints as BBB
published 1,071 on new and
used car dealers.
BBB also reported an
overwhelming 141,986 inquiries into used car dealers
alone, making it the most
inquired about industry of
2015.
Fleming explains, “These
numbers demonstrate that
consumers are doing their
research, checking out businesses before making a purchase and submitting a review on their experience for
future customers to read.”
Before you hit cruise control on your new or used car
purchase, BBB offers the
following tips for car shoppers:
Search for sales ahead
of time. Check out dealers’
websites and online advertisements, as there are specific discounts being offered
this Presidents’ Day. Don’t
be afraid to comparison
shop and check prices on the
same vehicles at different
locations. If an offer sounds
too good to be true, think
twice.
Do your homework. If
you’re shopping around for
a new car, Presidents’ Day
is an ideal holiday for it. But
before you sign on the dotted line, be sure to do your
homework to find out exactly what you’re looking for,
how much you can afford,
and the type of customer incentives being offered. BBB
offers consumers the Accredited Business Directory
to find reputable dealerships
in your area.
Research the manufacturer as well as the dealer.
Over 51 million cars were
recalled in 2015. Especially
if you’re in the market for a
used vehicle, it’s important
to be familiar with the history of your desired car’s make
and model. In addition, the
National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration offers
resources for safety problems. Their tool using a car’s
VIN number allows you to
look up a vehicle’s safety recalls over the past 15 years
including recalls that are incomplete.
Stand your ground. If a
dealer offered something in
an advertisement but that
vehicle is no longer available, make sure what they
do offer in its place is comparable. Plus, don’t hesitate
to negotiate. Don’t lose your
motivation to drive away
with a deal just because it’s
a busy time to car shop. If
you’ve done your research,
you’ll be ready to “talk
shop.” Stay calm and be confident. The dealer still wants
to move inventory and they
need you to make the sale.
Share your experience.
If you’ve had a great experience with a business, we
want to hear about it! Submit a customer review with
us at bbb.org/boston/customer-reviews to help your
fellow customers make their
purchasing decisions.
For more information you
can trust, visit at bbb.org/
boston or on Facebook.
