in the span of about two weeks last fall, the

massachusetts house and senate overwhelmingly
approved bills that would mandate employers dis-
close salary ranges in their job postings. Promi-
nent business groups backed the idea. Advocates
and unions supported compromise language. And
lawmakers quickly tapped negotiators to hammer
out a final version.
“so many people,” state senator Patricia d. Je-
hlen said in October, “have helped improve and
move this legislation.”
Then, all movement ceased. Eight months lat-
er, the bill hasn’t budged from a closed-door con-
ference committee, where lawmakers cloak their
negotiations in secrecy, leaving it unclear to con-
stituents and others if they’re talking about the
bill at all.
Legislation designed to shed light on gender
and racial wage gaps has, itself, gone dark.

The Stone Mill Lofts building still maintains much of the site’s
historic charm, with a high tower looming over its granite structure.
LAwrEncE — From the outside, the old stone mill looks
much the same as it did 150 years ago, when it was at the cen-
ter of the city’s bustling industrial life. inside, however, the
building is equipped with heat pumps, all-electric appliances,
and triple-pane glass windows, making it modern even by

The mill, which was retrofitted using settlement funds
from the 2018 merrimack valley gas explosions as well as fed-

Israelis call for a cease-fire deal and elections
Crowds hold day
of protests after
9 months of war
By Isabel Kershner
New YOrk times
JerUsaLem — israelis on
sunday marked nine months
since the devastating Hamas-
led attack of Oct. 7 and the start
of the ensuing war in the gaza
strip with a nationwide day of
antigovernment protests at a
time that many there view as a
pivotal juncture in the conflict.
Primarily calling for a cease-

in israel, protesters brought
traffic to a standstill at several
major intersections in cities
and on highways across the
country. much of central tel
aviv was blocked in one of the
biggest protests in months.
some progress has been
made in recent days for a re-
sumption of negotiations to-
ward a tentative deal after
weeks of an impasse, even as
the fighting continues in gaza,
where an israeli strike hit in the
area of a UN school saturday,
and across israel’s northern
border with Lebanon.
But many israelis, among
them the families of some of the
hostages, fear that the cease-
fire efforts could be torpedoed
not only by Hamas but also by

the gaza health ministry, which

been killed so far in gaza, ac-

added. Hamas, in a statement,
called the strike a “massacre.”
the israeli military said it had

New UK leader
seeks to improve
EU trade deal
LONDON — British Prime
minister keir starmer is seeking
to reset relations at home and
abroad.
During a visit to edinburgh
that he billed as an immediate
reset with the regional govern-
ments of scotland, Northern ire-
land, and wales, starmer said
sunday that he would also seek
to improve the Uk’s botched
trade deal with the european
Union.
“i do think that we can get a
much better deal than the
botched deal that [former prime
minister] Boris Johnson saddled
the Uk with,” he said, reference
to the pact negotiated after Br-
exit.
starmer said there were
many discussions ahead to
strengthen trading, research,
and defense ties with the eU. He
added those talks had begun as
his top diplomat made his first
visit abroad to germany, Poland,
and sweden.
with two of starmer’s minis-
ters in europe ahead of a NatO
meeting next week, the premier
made a point of visiting the
leaders of the regional govern-
ments in the Uk following his
party’s landslide victory last
week.

QUitO, ecuador — in an

ruled sunday that pollution has
violated the rights of a river that
runs through the capital, Quito.
the government appealed
the ruling, which is based on an
article of ecuador’s Constitution
that recognizes the rights of nat-
ural features, including rivers.
activists who filed the com-
plaint hailed the decision.
“this is historic because the
river runs right through Quito,
and because of its influence,
people live very close to it,” said
Darío iza, whose group kitu
kara filed the complaint on be-
half of the river.
the court ruled that while
appeals proceed, the govern-
ment will have to come up with
a plan to clean up the macháng-
ara.
the city of 2.6 million people
dumps all sorts of effluents and
contaminants into the machán-
gara, which starts high in the
andes mountains. But by the
time it runs through Quito, it
encounters problems such as a
near-total lack of treatment of
the waste water that is dumped
into it.

Hopes for a diplomatic opening rise under Iran’s new president

With the election of reform-
i s t c a n d i d a t e D r. m a s o u d
pezeshkian as president, Iran
may see a softening of its abso-
lutist foreign policy and even an
opportunity for a new diplo-
matic opening, current and for-
mer officials and experts say.
pezeshkian, a cardiologist,
member of parliament, and for-
mer health minister, has little
direct experience in foreign pol-
icy. But he has pledged to em-
power Iran’s most elite and glo-
balist diplomats to run his for-
eign agenda, raising hopes of a
warmer relationship with the
West.
pezeshkian “represents a
more pragmatic posture and
less confrontational posture to-
ward the outside and the in-
side,” said Dennis B. Ross, who
served as a special assistant to
former president Barack
Obama and is a longtime mid-
east negotiator.
Still, Ross noted, Iranian Su-
preme Leader Ayatollah Ali
Khamenei “would do a great
deal to limit” pezeshkian’s in-
ternational agenda.

we take very seriously,” putin
said thursday. “I haven’t seen

doubt that he says that sincere-
ly, and we support that.”
putin frequently feigns inter-

war he started. But he under-
scored his intention to force

thursday that Ukraine must

Even with fewer seats than
predicted, the National Rally has
now assumed a place in French
politics that erased a postwar po-
litical landscape built around
the idea that the far right’s histo-
ry of overt racism and antisemi-
tism made it unworthy of posi-
tions of power.
Le pen has disavowed that
past. But even in its rebranded
form, the party’s core message
remains that immigrants dilute
a glorified French national iden-
tity and that tighter borders and
stricter regulations are needed
to keep them out or prevent
them from benefiting from the
French social safety net.

dle East and the West, despite
its domestic upheaval and cra-
tered economy.
“Iran’s axis of resistance has
been so remarkably successful
that it is hard to see why any-

Ukrainian disappointments
are bipartisan. It is as common
to hear frustration with the
slow pace of US aid and bitter-
ness over restrictions on the use
of Western weapons demanded
by the Biden administration as
it is to hear concerns about
trump.
the Biden administration’s
policies, Ukrainian officials say
privately, have left Ukraine in a
cruel limbo, with neither the
weapons necessary to win nor
full US backing for a Ukrainian
effort to begin settlement talks
on terms favorable to Ukraine.
Biden did not attend a Ukraini-
an-organized peace summit in
Switzerland last month, despite
Zelensky’s appeals for him to do
so. vice president Kamala har-
ris attended instead.
Ukrainian officials took
some solace from trump’s brief
statement in the debate that he
change. It did not want more of
the same. It sent a stinging mes-
sage to the pro-business elites
gathered around macron, who is
term-limited and must leave of-
fice in 2027.
“France is more divided than
ever,” said Alain Duhamel, a

trump is unpredictable, and if
he fails to secure a deal with pu-

During the hard-line presi-

had pushed to enrich uranium

Iran director at the Internation-
al crisis group. “he doesn’t be-
lieve in the value of dealing
with the West.”
Under pezeshkian, he said,
“I think the odds of a diplomat-
ic breakthrough will increase.”
pezeshkian has said he is de-
termined to set a policy of inter-
national engagement and sup-
ports an easing of relations
with the West with the aim of
ending the sanctions. he says
he wants to foster communica-
tion with most other govern-
ments across the world — ex-
cept Israel — but he has also
warned against putting too
much stock in alliances with
Russia and china. that’s “be-
cause then they could exploit
Iran” and further isolate it glob-
ally, vaez said.

Mixed results so far for McCarthy’s revenge tour

washiNgtON — During
the awkward interlude after he
was ousted from the speaker-
ship but before
POLITICAL he resigned
NOTEBOOK from congress,
kevin mcca-
rthy found himself standing on
the house floor one afternoon
next to representative Bob
good of virginia, one of the
eight republicans who had vot-
ed to remove him from power.
“i just traveled to your dis-
trict,” mccarthy, still raw over
his political downfall, said in
what was interpreted as a
vaguely threatening tone. “it’s a
really nice district.”
“why don’t you come down
and spend money there?” good,
chair of the hard-right house
Freedom caucus, taunted mc-
carthy in response.
“Oh, i’m going to,” mccarthy
shot back. “i might spend $5
million there, too.”
in this instance, mccarthy
was as good as his word.
in the months that followed,
he helped direct more than $6
million into the race to defeat
good, who is now fighting to
hang on to his seat after coming
up 375 votes short in his recent
primary against a trump-
backed challenger, John J.
mcguire. (good’s campaign is
paying for a recount, and he is
claiming there was “inappropri-
ate activity” at ballot drop boxes
in Lynchburg, the district’s big-
gest city.)
mccarthy’s campaign to
bring down good was just one
part of an elaborate and expen-
sive campaign of revenge he has
mounted since leaving con-
gress, one designed to ruin the
republicans he holds responsi-
ble for his demise.
“Bob good was defeated, but
the loser just can’t accept it yet,”
said Brian O. walsh, a top mc-
carthy ally who is coordinating
the former speaker’s efforts to
unseat the so-called crazy eight
republicans who crossed him.
mccarthy declined to com-
ment for this story, but walsh
made it clear that the former
speaker was bent on retribution
and doing little to hide it. “we
said there would be conse-
quences,” walsh said, “and we
are persistent and very patient.”
mccarthy spent more than
$4 million in an unsuccessful
bid to defeat representative
Nancy mace in her south caro-
lina primary last month, and
his allies are now promoting
ethics allegations against her in
hopes of making her un-

electable in the future. he and
his allies are backing a challeng-
er to representative eli crane
of arizona, the sole first-term
republican who voted to re-
move mccarthy, who faces a
primary in august. and mcca-
rthy is going after representa-
tive matt gaetz in Florida, his
chief tormentor and the ring-
leader of the push to depose
him, pushing accusations that
gaetz had sex with an underage
girl.
representative matt rosend-
ale of montana, another of the
republicans who voted to oust
the former speaker, abruptly
dropped his reelection bid in
march after rampant rumors
circulated that he had an affair
with a staff member. walsh de-
clined to comment on whether
mccarthy and those in his orbit
had anything to do with that de-
cision. But rosendale’s decision
saved them millions of dollars.
it is all a new role for a man
best known as a happy-go-lucky
political operator, a consum-
mate team player, and a prodi-
gious fund-raiser. Now, bent on
settling his political scores, mc-
carthy has been inserting him-
self into a high-stakes election
cycle in which republicans are
pressing to win control of the
white house and both cham-
bers of congress.

Host leaves station over
Biden campaign questions
harrisBUrg, pa. — phila-
delphia radio station wUrD
has parted ways with a host
who interviewed president
Biden on wednesday using
questions provided to her by the
Biden campaign.
wUrD said in a statement
sunday that “agreeing to a pre-
determined set of questions
jeopardizes” its listeners’ trust.
the host, andrea Lawful-sand-
ers, resigned in a mutual agree-
ment, according to wUrD.
Lawful-sanders asked Biden
questions that could be consid-
ered softballs in his first inter-
view with a journalist since his
uneasy debate performance the
previous week. many observers
tuned in to the station, which
has a large Black following, to
hear how he would respond to
questions about the debate and
found that the interview did not
fully address the concerns.
the station said the inter-
view and questions were inde-
pendently arranged by the host
for her program, “the source.”
Lawful-sanders did not respond
to a request for comment.
she told cNN on saturday
that she had received prepared
questions from the white
house before the interview.
“the questions were sent to
me for approval,” she said. “i
approved them.” the Biden
campaign later clarified that it
had sent the questions, not the
sUsaN waLsh/assOciateD press
white house.
it is not uncommon for polit-
ical communications staff mem-
bers to provide a list of suggest-
ed topics for media appearanc-
es, but Lawful-sanders’ use of
specific questions screened be-
forehand has drawn criticism.

Trump is elevating the next
generation of Republicans
Donald trump has never
shown much interest in groom-
ing successors.
when he left as host of “the
apprentice,” he mocked the rat-
ings of his replacement. No
alumni network exists for for-
mer trump white house staff
members in the way there does
for the two presidents who pre-
ceded him. he signaled his ap-
proval when supporters chant-
ed, “hang mike pence,” during
the capitol riot Jan. 6, 2021, a
former aide testified to con-
gress.
But a funny thing has hap-
pened on the way to naming a
running mate: with an increas-
ingly theatrical selection pro-
cess focused on a wide field of
candidates — akin to reality tv
— the former president has fos-
tered a new crop of rising stars
inside his party.
the group under consider-
ation already constitutes some
of the most coveted pro-trump
republicans for cable news in-
terviews. and their access to
some of the party’s biggest do-
nors has widened thanks to
their newly burnished trump
bona fides. whoever is not cho-
sen as the republican vice-pres-
idential nominee undoubtedly
will be among the first names
discussed for the top of the tick-
et in 2028.
representatives Byron Don-
alds of Florida, 45, and elise
stefanik of New York, 40, along
with senator JD vance of Ohio,
39, are widely viewed as some
of the party’s most promising
young stars. senator marco ru-
bio’s conservative credentials
have been polished by trump’s
consideration of the Florida
senator as a top contender. gov-
ernor Doug Burgum of North
Dakota has emerged from polit-
ical obscurity to become one of
the former president’s staunch-
est defenders on television.
senator tim scott of south
carolina has gotten more expo-
sure from being mentioned as a
possible running mate than he
did during his presidential bid
this year.
“trump has been enormous-
ly helpful to these people,” said
Newt gingrich, a former house
speaker who trump considered
as a running mate in 2016.
“they are all bigger and better
known than they would have
been without Donald trump.”
trump has helped raise their
profiles by repeatedly praising
them at rallies, mentioning
them as possible running
mates. his campaign has also
created an apparatus tailored
toward that aim. an internal
booking team is explicitly
tasked with making sure con-
tenders are booked for cable
news interviews and quoted in
conservative media outlets. the
campaign team has also helped
contenders organize pro-trump
fund-raisers and provided them
call lists with specific donors to
ask for contributions for the
trump campaign, which could
also help them in the future.

Top House Democrats privately suggest Biden step aside

uBIDEN
Continued from Page A1
top of the ticket was needed to
preserve the party’s chances of
holding the white house and
prevailing in the fight for control
of congress, the people said.
among those saying explicit-
ly that Biden should end his can-
didacy were representatives Jer-
ry Nadler of New York, the top
Democrat on the Judiciary com-
mittee; adam smith of washing-
ton, the ranking member of the
armed services committee;
mark takano of california, the
ranking Democrat on the veter-
ans affairs committee; and Joe
morelle of New York, the top
Democrat on the committee on
house administration.
a fifth Democrat, represen-
tative Jim himes of connecticut,
the ranking Democrat on the in-
telligence committee, expressed
uncertainty about Biden’s path
forward. and representative su-
san wild of pennsylvania, the
ranking member of the ethics
committee, said in a statement
after the session that she had
“expressed the same concerns
that americans across the coun-
try are grappling with, about
president Biden’s electability,”
adding that the “difficult pro-
cess” that Democrats are going
through to determine the best
path forward should be done in
a confidential way.
several participants in the
meeting declined to comment
on the confidential discussion.
One attendee, representative
Don Beyer of virginia, issued a
statement afterward declaring,
“i support president Biden.” an-
other, representative richard
Neal of massachusetts, the top
Democrat on the ways and
means committee, called Biden
a “visionary leader” on social
media, adding: “Let’s keep it go-
ing.”
a Biden campaign official
pointed to the president’s past
insistence that he was staying in
the race and noted that many
top Democrats had expressed
public support for him in recent
days.
But the private concerns have
only grown. Jeffries convened
the high-level meeting, which in-
cluded only ranking committee
members, as a listening session
to get input from all corners of
the Democratic caucus about
Biden’s candidacy as Democrats
weigh how aggressive and public
they want to be in elevating con-
cerns in the face of the presi-
dent’s defiant posture that only
divine intervention could force
him out of the race.
rather than opening the
meeting with a call to rally be-
hind Biden’s candidacy, Jeffries
and other leaders stayed mostly
silent as lawmakers took turns
sharing their doubts about the
president’s viability. some said
their constituents believed the
president should withdraw,
while others said that they them-
selves felt he should.
Jeffries’ decision to hold the
meeting at a time of mounting
panic within the top echelons of
his caucus was notable on its
own; by allowing Democrats the
chance to privately air such pro-
found doubts, he left Biden with
little choice but to acknowledge
the concerns in his own party
that he has so far brushed away.
it reflected where many con-
gressional Democrats are land-
ing as they head back to wash-
ington after a weeklong recess to
confront questions about Biden’s
viability as a candidate and their
own chances of holding the sen-
ate and winning back the house

in November.
t he y want to give Biden
room to exit the race on his own
terms before making any explicit
call for him to do so. But they are
also aware that there may be no
way, at this point, to prove to
voters that he is not too old for
the task of defeating trump —
and there is mounting impa-
tience that could transform pri-
vate utterances into more public
calls for Biden to step aside.
some Democrats continue to
back Biden, saying he deserves a
final chance to right his cam-
paign. Others hedged on that
support.
senator chris murphy, a con-
necticut Democrat, said earlier
sunday that the president’s first
television interview since the de-
bate fell short of alleviating deep
concerns about his condition and
that he had more work to do to
convince voters he is fit to run for
and win reelection.
“voters do have questions,”
murphy said on cNN’s “state of
the Union.”
he added: “personally, i love
Joe Biden, and i don’t know that
the interview on Friday night did
enough to answer those ques-
tions. this week is going to be
absolutely critical. i think the
president needs to do more.”
he avoided directly answer-
ing whether Biden should step
aside, saying: “i know there are a
lot of voters out there that need
to be convinced that thursday’s
night’s debate performance was
a bad night.”
the carefully calibrated com-
ments from murphy were some
of the first public alarm bells
from the ranks of senate Demo-
crats, who have stayed mostly si-
lent since the debate over a week
ago but who are increasingly
concerned about Biden’s ability
to serve as the party’s nominee.
During the private house
meeting, some lawmakers who
took part, including Democrats
who did not explicitly say they
thought the president should
stand aside, said they believed
that vice president kamala har-
ris would be a strong candidate
to take on trump should Biden
leave the race.
the drumbeat of opposition
against Biden continuing as the
party’s nominee came only after
a few senior Democrats opened
the meeting by speaking in sup-
port of the president. But the
tide quickly turned after Nadler
was the first Democrat to speak
against continuing with Biden.
although no Democratic con-
gressional leader has yet public-
ly called on Biden to step aside,
five rank-and-file house Demo-
crats have done so, and anxiety
is beginning to bubble into the
open among senators as well.
murphy said he thought
Biden could still defeat trump.
But he added that “the president
needs to answer those questions
that voters have.” murphy insist-
ed multiple times during the in-
terview that Biden had to prove
himself “this week” in “unscript-
ed” conversations with voters.
“they need to see more from
the president, and i hope that
we see that this week,” he said.
the senator’s message also
appeared aimed at warning the
president and those around him
that their stance in response to
real questions about his candi-
dacy could not stand. the presi-
dent has denied that a number
of Democrats have called on him
to step aside and declared that
only “the Lord almighty” could
persuade him to withdraw from
the race.
“there are still questions,”
murphy said. “the clock is tick-
ing.”
murphy’s New england col-
league, senator sheldon white-
house of rhode island, had last
week publicly voiced concerns
over how candid the campaign
was being about Biden’s condi-
tion, but he stopped short of call-
ing for the president to step
aside. and senator peter welch
of vermont warned of a “fierce
u n d e r t o w ” f o r D e m o c rat i c
house and senate candidates if
the Democratic presidential can-
didate lost badly in November.
senator mark warner of vir-
ginia is working to convene
Democratic senators this week
to discuss a path forward.
On the campaign trail, Biden
remained defiant. he urged his
supporters to stay unified during
a series of sunday stops in criti-
cal pennsylvania.
addressing a rousing church
service in front of stained glass
windows bathed in sunshine at
philadelphia's mount air y
church of god in christ, the 81-
year-old Biden joked, “i know i
look 40” but “i’ve been doing
this a long time.”
“i, honest to god, have never
been more optimistic about
america’s future if we stick to-
gether,” he said.
there and during a subse-
quent rally with union members
in harrisburg, Biden offered
short speeches that touched on
familiar topics. he also left plenty
of room for key backers to discuss
standing by him. in that way, the
pennsylvania swing seemed
meant to showcase support for
the president from key political
quarters more than proving he’s
up to four more years.

president of energy and sus-
tainability for boston-based
WinnDevelopment, which retro-
fitted the Lawrence mill. “And
really, how can we blend the two
together effectively so that one
plus one equals three?”
eighty percent of the units at
stone Mill Lofts are designated
for residents who make less than
60 percent of the area median
income, which, in Lawrence, is
just under $128,000 for a four-
person household, according to
Masshousing, a quasi-public
agency that helps finance afford-
able housing across the state.
As cities and towns around
the state contend with an afford-
able-housing shortage, green
retrofits have emerged as a way
to address the issue while simul-
taneously striving to meet ur-
gent climate goals.
“eighty-five percent of the
buildings that will exist in the
year 2050 have already been
built,” said Joe backer, boston’s
senior project manager for
neighborhood housing. “so tack-
ling the question of decarboniza-
tion in existing affordable-hous-
ing stock is super important.”
Whether converting a histor-
ic building into affordable-hous-
ing units that don’t rely on fossil
fuels, or transforming existing
affordable housing to be more
energy-efficient, green renova-
tions have created an opportuni-
ty for designers and developers
of multifamily homes to get cre-
ative, spurring them to work
with what they’ve got, rather
than starting from scratch. And
many of the recent sustainability
innovations for multifamily
buildings can also be applied to
single-family homes, too.
“Most people ... think that to
renovate to be an energy-effi-
cient home, it’s got to cost more
money than if they were to start
from scratch. the reality is that’s
not true,” said timothy McDon-
ald, architect and co-partner of
Philadelphia-based Onion flats
Architecture. “We’re finding new
construction projects can be as
much as twice the cost of reno-
vating a building.”
McDonald, whose team re-
cently kicked off a sustainable
retrofit of an existing affordable-
housing development in salem
owned by nonprofit developer
Preservation of Affordable hous-
ing, stressed that “the most sus-
tainable building you can have is
one that’s already there.”
“All the carbon that it took to
make those bricks, to make that
concrete, to build those mechan-
ical systems, it’s already there,”
he added. by demolishing and

guessing game of not just when
far-reaching bills could emerge
but whether they even will.
“i’m concerned about how
we get it over the finish line,”
said evelyn Murphy, the former
lieutenant governor and now co-
chair of Wage equity Now coali-
tion, which has pushed the wage

phy said she and others met
roughly a month ago with the

told them to “sit still, we‘ll get to

the house and senate agree
broadly on the language, yet dif-
fer on a key issue: the house —
but not the senate — sought to
exempt many state and local
government agencies from hav-
ing to publicly disclose salary
ranges in job postings, as any
employer with 25 full-time
workers or more would have to
should the proposal become law.
“Right now, speaking for the
coalition, what’s important for
us is to get a bill passed,” Mur-
phy said. “Whatever the Legisla-
ture settles on, we will support.”
the proposal is just one
idling in the Legislature’s black
box. the house and senate have
each passed, but not reconciled,
differing versions of a sweeping
bill designed to ameliorate the
state’s housing crisis. the house
cleared another proposal to bor-
row billions of dollars to grease
the state’s economic engine, but
the senate has yet to take action.
Combined with a yet another
bond bill targeting information
the money [it took to build]
away.”
the best practices for how to
sustainably retrofit homes have
continued to evolve over the past
decade, as new technology has
emerged and certain existing
tech, like solar panels, have be-
come more affordable.
in Lawrence, for example,
where the first tenants are ex-
pected to move into the stone
Mill Lofts this month, develop-
ers at WinnDevelopment are of-
fering a new tool that uses a sin-
gle energy source to power both
the hot water and the hvAC
(heat, ventilation, and air condi-
technology projects, the three
still-unsettled packages would
allow the state to borrow or offer
tax credits totaling upward of
$11 billion. And that doesn’t
even include the late $58 billion
state budget plan, which law-
makers have yet to send to Gov-
ernor Maura healey‘s desk —
even though the new fiscal year
it covers started days ago.
Other proposals still locked
up in secret negotiations include
legislation that would overhaul
the state’s firearms laws, in-
crease benefits for veterans, or
free up cash to compete for fed-
eral funding. versions of each
have passed both chambers, in
some cases months ago.
such a late-summer crunch
is business as usual for the Mas-
sachusetts Legislature. Law-
makers routinely leave major
work until the mid-summer
deadline. in 2022, backroom
talks and floor votes spilled past
dawn the day after formal ses-
sions were supposed to end.
the practice creates an envi-
ronment where deals on far-
reaching legislation can emerge,
and then pass, within the span
of just a few hours or less. Major
bills die, as well, in the final
churn, as lawmakers fail to
reach compromise in the tight
timeline they afford themselves.
house speaker Ron Mariano
said the fact that so many major
bills remain unfinished so late
in the session is not a sign of
dysfunction but “simply the re-
sult of a healthy legislative pro-
cess.”

since the mill is a historic
site, architects also needed to
balance preservation of the orig-
inal look and feel of the building
with their focus on sustainabili-
ty. the granite exterior remained
relatively untouched, and wood
floors and ceilings were either
restored or replaced to replicate
the originals (ditto for the win-
dows, which are much better in-
sulated than the original single-
pane, but nearly identical in col-
or, shape, and style). Developers

for hearings after a bill is draft-
ed and filed, giving residents
and stakeholders the opportuni-
ty to weigh in before the bill is
redrafted, voted out of commit-
tee, and taken up by the full
house,” the Quincy Democrat
said in a statement. “in fact, it is
often the case that a consensus
can be more easily reached
when a bill is given ample time
to move through the legislative
process.”
but this session has also been
marked by stretches of little ac-
tual lawmaking. Outside of
three days of budget votes in
April, the house the rest of the
month held just one formal ses-
sion, in which lawmakers take
recorded votes and most of the
substantive bills pass. the sen-
ate followed in May with its own

were only allowed to increase
the thickness of the interior
walls by approximately 4 inches,
so the designers made sure to se-
lect insulation that would mini-
mize heat transfer and energy
loss across the narrow space.
Newer buildings, however,
have challenges of their own.
Retrofitting the building in a
way that allows tenants to con-
tinue living there amid the con-
struction is top priority, particu-
larly when it comes to renovat-
ing existing affordable housing,

that springtime slog came
after lawmakers began the ses-
sion passing only a trickle of
laws, and closed 2023 lumber-
ing through one of the least pro-
ductive first years of session in
decades.
in the 18 months since they
were sworn in, house leaders
have asked members to cast just
132 votes, making it highly un-
likely it will match the nearly
300 it took last session or 470
the session before when formal
voting was extended for months
amid the COviD-19 pandemic.

fair way to do this,” Woolcock
said. “because ultimately, afford-

can be achieved using what
Woolcock called a “panelized
system,” where an architect can
design a new, better-insulated
facade for a building on the com-
puter, and then have it manufac-
tured in panels, which are then
attached to the outside of the ex-
isting building.
McDonald said when it
comes to green renovations, in-
sulation is the best place to start.
“the first rule of thumb with
a building is give it a warm coat
... that’s the thermal envelope of
the building,” he said. “Don’t say,
‘Oh, i’m going to change my gas
boiler to electric heat pumps be-
cause they’re the new thing.’ No!

drafty entryways, poorly sealed
doors, and thin, single-pane
windows. in salem, McDonald
said, his company plans to use
ages to move proposals big and
small. Legislative leaders have
said that the number of roll calls
taken and the number of laws
passed are not a good gauge of
their effectiveness.
but that also means lawmak-
ers publicly reveal their stances
on specific policies far less often,
leaving voters with less informa-
tion about the choices their rep-
resentatives are making on their
behalf.
Now, with just weeks left un-
til the Legislature recesses, law-
makers face no shortage of other
bills to consider.
the house, for example, has
passed a suite of health care-re-
lated bills, including one de-
signed to prevent another crisis
like the one roiling steward
health Care. An opioid-related
bill would free doctors, hospital
officials, and others from re-
quirements to report suspected
neglect to child welfare officials
solely because a baby is born ex-
posed to drugs. the chamber in
May passed a proposal that
would allow 205 liquor licenses
in boston, marking the most
ambitious effort to expand the
number of permits in the city
since Prohibition.
senate leaders have made no
promises of taking up any of
those proposals.
Meanwhile, the senate has
passed a sweeping climate bill, a
version of which Mariano has
promised the house will take
up. senators have adopted sepa-
rate measures that would ban

“super airtight” shell that can be
applied to the building, and hold
meetings with tenants to explain
the changes they’ ll be seeing

“People [will be] staring at
their windows while you’re put-
ting this new panel on the out-
side of the building and for a
moment, they’re staring through
two windows because the new
window is on the outside of the
existing window,” he explained.
“And so the premise is to get like

Where is the coverage
of Trump’s debate performance?
For every column that has been devoted to biden’s halting debate perfor-
mance and its possible fallout, i would have loved to see the same amount
of space focused on Donald trump’s performance — a disastrous one by
any reasonable standard (as summarized in Heather cox richardson’s ex-
cellent post-debate blog).
He failed to answer the interviewers’ questions; was incoherent and
jumbled in his speech; spewed misinformation, exaggeration, and lies;
took credit for some of biden’s accomplishments; and blamed biden for
his own administration’s failures. to anyone paying attention, the debate
amply demonstrated trump’s lack of fitness to be president, but i have yet
to see anything like comparable coverage given to his terrible debate per-

US Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts, left, and Associate Justices Sonia Sotomayor,
Elena Kagan, and Neil Gorsuch stood on the House floor ahead of the annual State of the
Union address by President Biden on March 7 in Washington, D.C.

much ink has been spilled over individual jus-
tices. We have read at great length about Justice
clarence thomas’s vacations and Justice samuel
Alito’s flags (or, to be more precise, his wife’s flags).
On a more substantive level, commentators have
focused on the court’s two newest members, Jus-

tices Amy coney Barrett and ketanji Brown Jack-
son, who have demonstrated their independence
from the conservative and liberal wings, respec-
tively.
relatively little attention has been paid to the
“first among equals,” chief Justice John roberts —
and one can understand why. the unassuming
roberts makes few public appearances, rarely
speaks to the press, stays out of ethical trouble,
and doesn’t write books. One of the least publicity-
seeking justices since David souter, roberts pre-
fers to speak through his work.
And when you look at that body of work —
whether you admire it, abhor it, or something in
between — his power and influence become clear.
this is John roberts’s court, and the other justices
are just sitting on it.
First, roberts is important simply because of
his vote. in the term that just ended, he was the
justice most frequently in the majority; according
to Adam Feldman of Empirical scOtUs, roberts
was on the winning side a staggering 96 percent of
the time. For the two terms prior to that, roberts
was in the majority an average of 95 percent of the
time, second in 2022 only to Justice Brett ka-
vanaugh. in contrast, the two justices who were in
the majority the least this past term, Justices sonia
sotomayor and Elena kagan, were in the majority
only 71 percent of the time.
to be sure, roberts might not be as powerful as
he was four years ago. Before Barrett replaced the
late Justice ruth Bader ginsburg in 2020, creating
a six-justice conservative bloc that could lose a
vote and still prevail, roberts was both chief and
swing justice. But even if he’s no longer the swing
justice, he remains a swing justice. As noted by
court watcher sarah isgur, today’s court is a “3-
3-3” court, consisting of three liberals, three
staunch conservatives, and three justices — rob-
erts, kavanaugh, and Barrett — who control the
outcomes in divided cases.
second, roberts has issued some of the court’s
most consequential opinions. this shouldn’t be
surprising: As the most senior justice, he assigns
the opinion when he’s in the majority (which, as
noted, is almost always the case). And there are
certain opinions, especially ones reviewing major
executive actions, that are expected to come from
a chief justice. One of the most famous examples is
the 2012 opinion upholding the Affordable care
Act, written by — you guessed it — roberts.
consider roberts’s opinions from just the most
recent term. He wrote trump v. United states,
which will go down in history as one of the most
important precedents on presidential power; Lop-
er Bright Enterprises v. raimondo, which over-
ruled the 40-year-old chevron doctrine and could
dramatically curtail the power of administrative
agencies; Fischer v. United states, which narrowly
interpreted an obstruction-of-justice law, possibly
benefiting hundreds of Jan. 6, 2021, defendants
(including Donald trump); and United states v.
rahimi, which cabined the court’s 2022 ruling in
New York state rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen,
hopefully keeping guns out of the hands of dan-
gerous people.
And that’s only the latest term. Over the past
five terms, roberts has authored opinions like stu-
T h e B o s t o n
sHAWN tHEW-POOL/gEttY imAgEs
dents for Fair Admissions inc. v. President and Fel-
lows of Harvard college, which ruled against ra-
cial preferences in college admissions; Biden v. Ne-
braska, which held unlawful the Biden adminis-
tration’s student loan forgiveness program; West
Virginia v. Environmental Protection Agency,
which rejected the EPA’s clean Power Plan, based
on an increasingly important legal theory called
the “major questions doctrine”; and Allen v. milli-
gan and moore v. Harper, two critically important
cases about election law.
third, and finally, roberts exerts influence
through his leadership of the court. i realize some
progressives are laughing right now, given their
narrative that roberts has lost control of the court
to right-wing ideologues, but let me explain.
Despite his grandiose title of “chief justice,”
roberts is not the leader of the court in the way
that a chief executive officer is the leader of a com-
pany. Unlike a cEO, he can’t fire his colleagues or
tell them what to do. Yes, he assigns opinions
when in the majority, presides over courtroom
proceedings, and speaks first at the justices’ pri-
vate conferences. But other than these and similar
responsibilities (and a slightly higher salary), he’s
just like his other colleagues, one vote out of nine.
Of course, the chief justice can try to persuade
or pressure his colleagues to vote in certain ways,
especially in high-profile cases. And while we don’t
know what happened behind the scenes at One
First st., some facts suggest he has been doing just
that — successfully.
in the 2023-2024 term, 46 percent of cases
were decided unanimously — a significant in-
crease from the 35 percent average of the preced-
ing five terms. One of those cases was trump v.
Anderson, concerning trump’s eligibility to appear
on the republican primary ballot in colorado — a
highly contentious, politically charged case, where
it benefited the reputation of the court to present a
united front. it
wouldn’t be surprising
if roberts — trying to
improve the court’s
weak (but improving)
approval rating, dur-
ing extremely polar-
ized times — made ex-
tra efforts during this
past term to forge
compromise.
What about the
complaint that rob-
erts failed to police the
ethics of his col-
leagues? Again, re-
member: He’s not the
boss of them, and oth-
er than attempts at
persuasion, he lacks
any tools for regulat-
ing their behavior. His
duties as chief justice
do not include telling
associate justices
where to vacation or
what flags they — or
their wives — can fly.
in light of his limit-
ed power over his col-
leagues, roberts deserves credit for the court’s is-
suance last November of a written code of ethics —
the first such code in the 235-year history of the
court. it would have been easy for the justices to
do nothing, allowing the storm of bad publicity to
blow over. the fact that they did issue a code —
which required unanimity from nine people who
clearly hold different views on their ethical obliga-
tions — was itself an achievement. Even if it lacks
enforcement provisions, the code establishes stan-
dards against which the media and the public can
evaluate the justices’ conduct.
it’s customary to refer to periods in supreme
court history based on the chief justice, such as
the Warren court or the rehnquist court — but
this doesn’t mean the chief justice controlled the
direction of the court. For many years of the rehn-
quist and roberts courts, two swing justices, Jus-
tices sandra Day O’connor and Anthony kennedy,
called the shots, at least in the most controversial
cases.
For better or worse, those days are gone. make
no mistake: the roberts court is roberts’s court.

I
n the supreme court’s rul-
ing granting former presi-
dents, including Donald
trump, broad immunity
for acts committed while
in the White House, Justice Amy
coney Barrett carved out what is
becoming a trademark move for
her: she showed a bit of indepen-
dence, even from the other mem-
bers of the court’s supermajority,
all while keeping it conservative
when it counts.
since ascending to the court,
Barrett has sometimes showed a
willingness to beat her own judicial
path, even occasionally breaking
with her fellow trump-appointed
justices and the other conserva-
tives who make up the court’s su-
permajority. But she does so care-
fully, narrowly, and in a way that —
in the end — has no real impact on
the cases’ outcome. this past term,
Barrett has become more skilled
than ever in having her conserva-
tive cake and eating it too.
in her concurring opinion in
the immunity case, Barrett aligned
with dissenting Justice sonia soto-
mayor and the other liberals on the
bench on one key issue: whether
evidence about a president’s pro-
tected conduct may be introduced
at a criminal trial for conduct that
falls outside of their immunity.
Five members of the court’s ma-
jority ruled that the answer is yes.
Barrett joined the dissenters in
coming to the opposite view.
“the constitution does not re-
quire blinding juries to the circum-
stances surrounding conduct for
which presidents can be held lia-
ble,” Barrett wrote, the emphasis
hers.
that and other cases where
Barrett broke, at least partially,
with the other right-leaning jurists
on the bench have earned her
headlines as a justice who can defy
expectations and chart her own
course.
But make no mistake: When the
rubber meets the road, she has de-
livered exactly what conservatives
wanted. Her resistance only comes
when she’s not a deciding vote.
take for example the decision

and other rules have drawn the ire
of conservatives and the business
sector, which want to rein in the
ability of federal agencies to imple-

Barrett wrote a dissent, joined
by sotomayor and Justices Elena
kagan and ketanji Brown Jackson,
reasoning that those opposing the
rule failed to “satisfy the stringent
conditions” for preliminarily block-
ing the regulation’s enforcement
entirely while their case was litigat-
ed.
But don’t let the smooth dissent
fool you: there were already five
votes to block the rule.

through the courts. When it comes
to conservative judicial power
grabs, Barrett is on board.
When Barrett has joined the
court’s more liberal justices to form
a majority, in opposition to her fel-
low trump-appointed justices, she
hasn’t gone alone. Barrett au-
thored the majority opinion reject-
ing claims by gOP-led states and
conservative activists that the
Biden administration unconstitu-
tionally threatened social media
companies over posts featuring
misinformation about the pandem-
ic. But she had chief Justice John
roberts on her side too, a crucial
buffer.
it is true that all of these rulings
are different from Barrett’s ap-
proach to the 2022 Dobbs decision,
where she silently joined the ma-
jority, declining to even issue a con-
currence detailing her reasoning
for upending 50 years of precedent
protecting women’s privacy rights.
And Barrett has lived up to her
vow during her confirmation hear-
ings to not be a rubber stamp,
blindly espousing the jurispruden-
tial view of the late Justice Antonin

another bill, house bill 619,

on charges that she killed her
boyfriend, boston police Officer
John O’keefe, with her car, end-
ed in a mistrial last Monday.
During the trial, the defense
hammered lead investigator Mi-
chael proctor, a state trooper,
over text messages he sent to
friends and relatives that includ-
ed crude remarks about read.
the shocking revelations raised
questions about his credibility
and gave read’s attorneys a pow-
erful weapon with which to un-
dermine the prosecution.
proctor’s texts came to light
because the Fbi had been con-
ducting a separate investigation
of the read case and turned
them over ahead of the trial.
proctor has been reassigned
from the district attorney’s office
by state police and his conduct is
the subject of an internal investi-
gation, authorities said.
Legal analysts said police tes-
timony deserves greater scrutiny
and the courts should use gali-
bois’s petition to set a clear stan-
dard for what law enforcement
should make available.
“they have to be held to a
higher standard than civilian
witnesses,” said shira M. Diner,
president of the Massachusetts
association of Criminal Defense
Lawyers and a clinical instructor
at the boston University school
of Law. “ When a juror hears
from a police witness, they’re
much more likely to believe
them.”
and still, Diner said, there is
no clear standard for what infor-
mation prosecutors should
make available.
“there’s no consistency be-
tween district attorneys’ offices,”
she said.

to play on girls sports teams. “i
fundamentally don’t believe
that biological boys should be
competing in girls sports,” he
said.
he has stood firm on that
position in recent interviews,
the requirement that prose-
cutors must turn over certain re-
cords about law enforcement of-
ficers is known broadly as “bra-
dy obligations,” in reference to
the 1963 landmark case brady v.
Maryland, in which the Us su-
preme Court held that prosecu-
tors must disclose exculpatory or
impeaching evidence about wit-
nesses that could exonerate a
person accused of a crime.
in the decades since, lawyers
have used the courts to force
prosecutors to comply with the
requirements, and prosecutors
have also strengthened their pol-
icies themselves amid the 2020
reckoning over police abuses fol-
lowing the police killing of
george Floyd in Minnesota.
still, the guidelines for turn-
ing over the information vary
among district attorneys’ offices,
and some local prosecutors say
they are reevaluating their poli-
cies to comply with recent state
court decisions. those decisions,
they said, have created a shifting
landscape on which prosecutors,
law-enforcement agencies, and
defense attorneys are struggling
to find universal agreement.
“Certain developments pop
up from time to time and need to
be addressed,” galibois said.
“Our goal is to be able to say at
the end of each case that we ar-
rived at a just result that is in
agreement with our obligations
as prosecutors.”

Meanwhile, Middlesex Dis-

Jack Collins, general counsel
for the Dukes County sheriff’s of-

simply inquire about officers
who are set to testify in a case
and that his office would readily
provide the information. that’s
the way other prosecutors have
handled the matter, he said, add-
ing that the department sees no
reason to turn over all informa-

to the State House to testify
against multiple bills. Parker
has testified against the
effort to bar transgender
girls from girls sports teams.
in april, New hampshire’s
child advocate Cassandra
sanchez spoke against dozens
of bills that she said would
harm LgbtQ+ youth, includ-
ing the effort to bar transgen-
der girls from girls sports
teams.
“We’re all about equity and
fairness, and all children
should have an opportunity,”
she said.
she doesn’t see transgender
athletes “trying to get ahead or
hur t others by engaging in
sports. they’re trying to have a
normalized childhood.”
she said many children find
a sense of belonging by playing
team sports. sara tirrell, whose
daughter parker is transgender
and plays soccer, agreed.
“the goal is to be part of the
team,” tirrell said.
“parker’s team in particular
won zero games last year. she
was “inappropriate.” the sher-
iff ’s office wrote in a motion to
dismiss the case that the district
attorney has failed to show the
sheriff has a “clear cut duty” to
turn over the records.
some legal analysts said,
however, that recent court deci-
sions have at least set a mini-
mum standard for what infor-
mation prosecutors should turn
over. still, some law enforce-
ment agencies are not comply-
ing, they said.
in 2020, for instance, the su-
preme Judicial Court ruled that
district attorneys should turn
over evidence of dishonesty by
law enforcement witnesses, even
if it is unrelated to the case at is-
sue.
in February 2023, the state
appeals Court ruled prosecutors
had to ask police departments to
notify them, and by extension
the defense, of ongoing lawsuits
against officers. prosecutors
scrambled to meet those re-
quirements, but then in January,
the sJC amended that rule to on-
ly include reporting of civil suits
that have been resolved and
found the officer committed
wrongdoing on the job.
also, in January the high
court laid out other rules for dis-
closing police misconduct in un-
related cases, putting the burden
on prosecutors to make the in-
quiry about any misconduct by
police and other governmental
employees working on a case.
rebecca Jacobstein, head of
the strategic litigation unit for

services, the state’s public de-
fender agency, said the recent

tors. but not all law enforcement

tears ran down her face as she
listened to her mom publicly
explain how she tried to com-
fort her daughter after a class-

slurs and said she should kill

“as her mother, i remain

ly,” tirrell said. that has meant
two years of making the hour-
long drive to Concord from her

against bills that would impact
her family.
in an interview, tirrell said
she first came to the state
house in 2023 to testify against
a bill that would have added
gender-affirming health care to
the definition of child abuse.
this year, with her family’s
support, parker decided to tes-
tify for the first time, speaking
against the effort to bar trans-
gender girls from girls sports
teams.
parker has played soccer
since she was 4, and she said
it’s become a big part of her
identity. she has played every
position: defense, midfield, and
striker. soccer is how she met
many of her friends. she said it
would be “devastating” if the
bill becomes law. Joining the
boys’ soccer team, she said, is
not an option, and neither is
using the men’s bathroom or
locker room.
advocating for herself and
others has been difficult for the
15-year-old.
“i feel like i shouldn’t have
to do it because it seems like a
lot for me specifically to have to
do as a freshman in high school
still trying to figure things out
school-wise,” she said. “i don’t
want to be, but it’s something
important that i have to do.”
“it’s been a lot for me,” park-
er said, “just having to deal
with all these people trying to
dictate how my life is supposed
to go.”

“people assume that if the
government has important in-
formation that you are not
guilty, that they would provide
that information,” she said. “but
that has not been the case in the
past.”
in March, Jacobstein’s orga-
nization sent a letter to hamp-
den District attorney anthony
gulluni, through his role as pres-
ident of the Massachusetts Dis-
trict attorneys association, ar-
guing that individual district at-
torneys’ offices are not fulfilling
discovery requirements as thor-
oughly as they should.
“the consequence of these in-
adequate discovery practices is
injustice,” anthony benedetti,
chief of the public defender
agency, wrote in the letter, which
was also sent to the attorney
general’s office.
gulluni’s office, which the su-
preme Judicial Court faulted in
the case about police miscon-
duct in January, did not respond
to requests for comment.
Jacobstein said the read case
underscored the power of excul-
patory information about a law
enforcement witness.
in an effort to meet brady ob-
ligations, the Norfolk district at-
torney’s office has begun notify-
ing defense attorneys on other
cases that proctor was involved
in about the ongoing investiga-
tion into him, a spokesperson
said.

fice’s brady list before the read
trial, but the prosecutors’ office
“is reviewing the implications of
these events,” a spokesman said.

A race for an elected position far off

most residents’ radar is evolving into
the buzziest matchup on the septem-
ber primary ballot, with some of Bos-
ton’s most powerful politicians throw-
ing their weight behind two very differ-
ent candidates running to be clerk of

As Boston City Councilor Erin Mur-
phy and longtime public defender Alli-

the contest for a rather low-profile posi-
tion.
But for political insiders, the unusu-

atic of the ongoing tension between the
traditional political establishment in
Boston versus a new wave of progres-
sive leaders.

Report sheds harsh light on reading instruction in Winchester
By Mandy McLaren
GLObe stAff
Literacy instruction in one of
the boston area’s most sought-
after suburban school districts
is hampered by poor communi-
cation, lapses in leadership, and
a “climate of deep mistrust”
among educators and parents —
factors that ultimately limit stu-
dents’ learning potential, ac-
cording to a new report.
the 111-page report by Win-
chester Public schools and writ-
ten by evaluators from the col-
laborative for educational ser-
vices, a Northampton-based
nonprofit, found “wide variabil-
ity” in how students across the
4,300-student district are
taught to read, with at least 20
different curriculums used
across five elementary schools.
though Winchester purports to
empower teachers by granting
them instructional autonomy, a
majority of educators would
prefer more guidance from dis-
trict leadership, the report
found, noting a “remarkable
discrepancy” between how lead-
ers and the rank and file view
the district’s curriculum land-
scape.
“i teach all the subjects,” said
one teacher, according to the re-
port. “i have students with Au-
tism, ADHD, with iePs. And i’m
supposed to be creating literacy
curriculum? the district says
they trust me, but i’m not an ex-
pert curriculum writer, or a lit-
eracy expert. i feel like i’m on
my own.”
“My first year here, i was in
shock. i’ve never taught in a dis-
trict where there was so little
structure or guidance,” said an-
other.
Winchester commissioned
the report earlier this year in re-
sponse to mounting community
pressure for a review. that pres-
sure was spurred, in part, by a

Police have identified Warren
Julien, a 40-year-old resident of
Jamaica Plain, as the victim of a
Friday shooting on shawmut Av-
enue — one of four shootings
across boston following the city’s
Fourth of July celebration.
Julien was pronounced dead
after being taken to a local hospi-
tal with multiple gunshot
wounds, boston police said in a
statement.

As an elected position, there
are no specific, formal eligibility
requirements for the role be-
yond the basic requirements for
anyone running for public of-
fice.
As they make their pitch to
voters, Murphy is relying heavi-
ly on voters’ familiarity with her
as a councilor, and Cartwright is
touting her credentials.
In an inter view with the
Globe, Cartwright said her pro-
fessional background, including
more than 30 years as an attor-
ney, makes her the best choice.
she currently oversees about 75
employees as the managing di-
rector of the public defender di-
vision of the Committee for Pub-
lic Counsel services, the state
agency that provides legal rep-
resentation for those who can’t
afford an attorney.
“I have tried cases in District
Court, superior Court, Probate

our state’s highest court and
having that legal background,
that legal training, only ensures
that [I] can do a stellar job.”

saturday, urging anyone with in-

shortly after 1:30 a.m., bos-
ton police officers responded to
the area of 618 shawmut Ave. in
Roxbury, where they found Ju-
lien with life-threatening inju-
ries.
The killing, which remains
under investigation, was one of
four shootings that took place in
the hours after the city’s annual
qualifications and respect in the
legal community are why she
has earned endorsements from
Wu, Campbell, several state sen-
ators, a handful of city council-
ors from boston, Winthrop,
Chelsea, and Revere, and most
recently, the boston Teachers

speaking to the Globe, Mur-
phy pushed back against the
idea that she is unqualified for
the role because she’s not a law-
yer.
“If an opponent wants to
change the job description and
make people believe that it’s ab-
solutely necessary, that’s a polit-
ical tactic,” Murphy said, argu-
ing that her time on the council,
and her 20-plus years as a bos-
ton Public schools teacher and
special-education coordinator,
prepared her to run for clerk.

shootings in boston on Friday re-

Detective John boyle, a boston

Police had not made any ar-

“They are still very active in-

wounds.
Police responded to a third
shooting at 783 blue Hill Ave. in
Dorchester around 5:18 a.m., in
which one victim suffered life-
threatening injuries. boyle said
the man remained in life-threat-
ening condition sunday after-
noon, and homicide detectives
were assigned to the case due to
the severity of his injuries.
A fourth shooting incident
took place shortly after 12:30
p.m. in Mattapan, near the inter-
of Cartwright’s supporters and
others in the legal community,
who said it was inappropriate
for a candidate running for
clerk to take a position on an is-
sue that will soon be argued be-
fore the court.
“These days in particular,
courts have to be beyond re-
proach, have to be not just actu-
ally neutral, but [have] the ap-
pearance of neutrality,” said re-
tired Judge Nancy Gertner, who
spent decades as a federal judge
and now teaches at Harvard

which a clerk can put his or her
thumb on the scale, not in a de-
cision-making way, but in terms
of the advice they give and in
terms of the way in which they
administer their job, can be af-

Gertner has not weighed in
on the clerk’s race with an en-
dorsement. but retired judge
Geraldine Hines, who has
served as an associate justice on
the supreme Judicial Court and
supports Cartwright, said Mur-
phy’s actions risk undermining
the institution’s integrity and
the perception of its impartiali-
ty.
“It’s irrefutable evidence, in
my humble opinion, that she
has no understanding or appre-
ciation of the role of the clerk,”
Hines told the Globe. “It’s not a
political position like a city
councilor, where you are expect-
ed by your constituents to tell
them what you think of issues.
... Here, that’s absolutely inap-
propriate; neutrality is re-
quired.”
Murphy rejects the criticism,
saying elections are inherently
political and she is entitled to
campaign.
“God bless her, good for her,
standing up for what she be-
lieves in, and standing with the
people of part of the district,”
said Lynch, the congressman
from south boston who backs
Murphy, to the Globe. “The deci-
sion on the merits is going to be
left up to a judge and to a court,

lem. I think she’ll be great at the

Police described her injuries Fri-

Julien’s death marked the
fifth fatal shooting in boston this

cording to police data.
Investigators are still trying to
determine whether the shootings

job, and I think they’re trying to
make something out of noth-
ing.”
Murphy said should she win,
she would refrain from taking
political positions.
The incident has raised the
question of whether clerk posi-
tions should be elected or ap-
pointed. Unlike the position
that Cartwright and Murphy are
competing for, the clerk for the
supreme Judicial Court of the
Commonwealth — a very simi-
lar role — is appointed by the
justices. A recent job descrip-
tion for that position required
candidates to have a law degree,
be a member of the Massachu-
setts bar, and have more than 10
years of legal experience.
“While I certainly don’t be-
grudge anyone for running be-
cause it’s the system we have, I
think it’s high time we revisit
the process of how we choose
many of these elected county
roles,” said former boston city
councilor Matt O’Malley, who
has not endorsed a candidate in
this race. “Empowering the gov-
ernor to appoint well-qualified
individuals ... would seemingly
be a significant upgrade from
the status quo.”

in 1960, at the end of the
causeway that brings visitors to
Plum island, a World War ii vet-
eran named ray moulton
opened a shack that sold bait
and tackle to the surfcasters
who have long flocked to the 11-
mile-long barrier beach to chase
striped bass. But it was his wife,
Kay, who became renowned for
her ability to fix the salt- and
sand-damaged reels that are the
byproduct of fishing a wave-bat-
tered beach.
As her husband shifted his
attention to starting marinas in
Newburyport and Salisbury,
Kay honed skills that earned the
shop something of a cult follow-
ing among finicky anglers.
The couple had five children,
but it was martha who followed
most closely in her mother’s
footsteps, taking a watchmak-
er’s interest in the gears and
bearings that make a reel work.
Like all her siblings, she grew
up working in the shop and con-
tinued each summer during the
27 years she spent as a special
education teacher at Lowell
High School.
By age 50, martha retired
from teaching to “focus on one
life,” as she says, and that was at
Surfland. She hunched over
reels at the work bench in the
back, helping her mother, who
continued working at the shop
until she passed away in 2018 at
age 88. Now martha, who is 60,

handles the business side.

A highly regarded cellular
and molecular biologist whose
work formed the foundation for
key advancements and discover-

ture of chromosomes, Dr. Par-
due died June 1 in Youville As-
sisted Living in Cambridge.
She was 90, had been diag-
nosed with Parkinson’s disease,
and her health had been failing.
The first Boris magasanik
professor of biology at miT, Dr.
Pardue had also been an Ameri-
can Academy of Arts and Sci-
ences fellow, and was a past
president of the Genetics Soci-
ety of America and the Ameri-

Her efforts at miT 30 years

male professors, however, are

country and around the world.
When Dr. Pardue told Hop-
kins she wanted to sign the let-
ter about bias against women
and send it to miT’s president,
“i knew the world had shifted,”
said Hopkins, whose efforts
with Dr. Pardue and others were
documented in “ The excep-
tions,” a 2023 book by New York
Times reporter Kate Zernike,
who initially broke the story as a
Boston Globe reporter.
“i could sense the power of
it: Two women, saying the same
thing, one of them a member of
the National Academy of Scienc-
es,” Hopkins said. “She looked at
me and felt the same thing, that
two women together had pow-
er.”
They reached out to other
tenured female professors at

the letter, which they presented
to the president. in 1995, miT

She’s a schoolteacher, so she
makes the troublemakers go
stand in the corner.

systematic bias that women in

That report, and miT’s sub-

failings, led to similar efforts at
universities across the country.
“it was life-changing, but
that it could change the world?
This is not something that oc-
curred to me then,” Hopkins
said, laughing at the memory.
As a young scientist, Dr. Par-
due and Joseph Gall, who had
been her doctoral adviser at Yale
University, developed an “in situ
hybridization” technique that
“led to many discoveries, includ-
ing critical advancements in de-
velopmental biology, our under-
standing of embryonic develop-
ment, and the structure of
chromosomes,” miT said in its
tribute to Dr. Pardue.
“in situ hybridization was a
crucial step toward genomics.
in some ways you could call it
the first genomic technique,”
said Allan Spradling, an investi-
gator at the Howard Hughes
medical institution.
“Her research is underappre-
ciated,” said Spradling, who also
is a former director of the em-
bryology department at the Car-
negie institution for Science.
“it’s all tied into so many mo-
mentous events in the history of
genomics.”
Kerry Kelley, who formerly
managed Dr. Pardue’s lab, and is
now manager of the Yilmaz Lab
at the Koch institute for integra-
tive Cancer research, said that
“mary-Lou was a giant of her
time.”
Continuing to work in her
lab after the onset of Parkin-
son’s, Dr. Pardue was “gracious,
kind, smart as a whip, and just
full of great stories,” Kelley said.

said, “but in retrospect, we had
no idea how powerful this

Her father, Louis Pardue,
was a dean at Virginia Tech. Her

On this morning, there were

After working in research,

She also did postdoctoral

miT turned her down with a let-

her for an associate professor

about her work and lectures,

“A lot of times you run into
scientists who are quite intelli-
gent and can’t relate to people
on a personal level,” said her
nephew, Todd Pardue of fairfax
Station, Va. “She would take the
time to talk to you. She was a
very special person.”
He and his sister, Sara Par-
due Gibson of Columbus, Ohio,
are their aunt’s closest survi-
vors. Plans for a celebration of
Dr. Pardue’s life and work are
pending.
While fielding questions dur-
ing her miT talk that was re-
corded for a video, Dr. Pardue
smiled and said in a voice still
rich with the Kentucky accent of
her youth that as a researcher,
“the greatest joy is when an ex-
p e r i m e n t y o u d i d n’ t t h i n k
would work, works.”
Such clear, concise lessons
were among those she imparted
to generations of young scien-
tists who worked in her labs, in-
cluding at miT, where she was a
professor for more than 30
years.
“She was a great mentor who
was as proud of her scientific
children and grandchildren as
she was of her own accomplish-
ments. That’s not the way all sci-
entists look at things,” said Ky
Lowenhaupt, manager of the
Biophysical instrumentation fa-
cility at miT.
Lowenhaupt said Dr. Pardue
“was a role model of what wom-
en in science can be at a time
when there weren’ t a lot of
those, and a trailblazer as a
woman — but also a trailblazer
as a scientist who didn’ t do
things along the path that other
people took.”

“But it’s definitely worth pay-
ing attention to,” she added.
A variety of factors help ex-
plain the recent uptick, Assou-

For one, we are dealing with
a new group of variants, “FLirT,”
which do not appear to produce
more severe disease but do seem
to be more transmissible and
better at evading immunity, she
explained.
Additionally as people gather
in indoor spaces to avoid the
heat this summer, they increase
their risk of infection, Assoumou
said.
Although cOViD cases have
typically increased during the
summer and winter seasons, As-
soumou cautioned against de-
masking in crowded, indoor
places, especially for those who
are at risk for severe disease,
hospitalization, and death. she
suggested spending time outside
over indoors, when possible.
with many other respiratory
infections circulating, for those
who become symptomatic,
Barnabus advised testing when
cOViD symptoms start and then
again two or three days later.
Assoumou recommended
that those who catch cOViD and
are susceptible to severe illness
reach out to their health care
provider to see if they qualify for
Paxlovid, which she said can be
an effective antiviral.
“The most important thing
you can do is keep your vaccine
status up to date,” said Barnab-
us, adding that vaccines offer
crucial protection against severe
disease.
The cDc considers those 65

BosTix booth
reopening at
Faneuil Hall
this week
By Emily Wyrwa
GLObe cOrresPONDeNt
Artsboston’s bostix booth will re-
open at faneuil Hall on wednesday.
to celebrate the return of its discount
ticketing kiosk, the arts advocacy or-
ganization announced a partnership
with the emerson colonial theatre for
the pre-broadway premiere of “the
Queen of Versailles,” starring tony
and emmy Award winner kristin che-
noweth. the six-week engagement be-
gins on July 16.
the reopening of the bostix down-
town location marks a new beginning
for Artsboston, according to a press
release from the group. As it did be-
fore its pandemic-related closure, the
faneuil kiosk will sell discounted tick-
ets to arts performances across the
city. in its new iteration, it will also
host pop-up performances and inter-
active arts experiences, and according
to Artsboston’s executive director,
catherine Peterson, “it’s going to be a
happening place.”
“we have such a healthy, vibrant
ecosystem of the arts that we want to
make sure everybody knows about,”
Peterson said in an interview with the
Globe. “by having that booth open in
one of the most highly trafficked parts
of our city, not only will people be able
to get there easily, but they’re just go-
ing to run into it. they’re going to see
the vibrancy, and it’s going to make
them stop and think, and engage
[with the arts].”
when it opens, the faneuil Hall
booth’s hours will be 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.,
wednesdays through saturdays. for
“Versailles,” bostix will sell $49 or-
chestra seats until this saturday, or
when the 400 tickets sell out.
“Any time we are fortunate enough
to get a pre-broadway show like ‘the
Queen of Versailles,’ it’s really a mo-
ment to celebrate,” said Joey riddle,
the emerson colonial theatre’s gener-
al manager.
fiLe
ArtsBoston’s BosTix booth will
reopen at Faneuil Hall on
Wednesday, selling discounted
tickets to arts performances across
the city.
riddle said the Artsboston part-
nership “made sense,” as the promo-
tional pricing will put the show on a
broader audience’s radar. He added,
”the show is incredibly popular, but
we wanted to make sure that it also is
accessible.”
the bostix booth, which opened in
faneuil Hall marketplace in 1978, has
always prioritized accessibility, ac-
cording to Peterson. the program was
modeled after tkts in New York, and
had two physical boston locations be-
fore its four-year hiatus, starting in
march 2020. the back bay location is
anticipated to return in December,
timed with the projected completion
of the copley square Park renova-
tions.
As theaters reopened post-pan-
demic, Artsboston continued to offer
bostix promotions online. but riddle
thinks the program’s in-person return
will extend a helping hand to poten-
tial and new theatergoers.
“there’s this misconception that
commercial theater is somewhat ex-
clusionary, especially because of the
price of admission,” he said. “People
know that [the kiosk] is a place to go
if you see a title that you think you’re
unable to attend because you can’t af-
ford the ticket price. suddenly, you
can attend that show.”
Additionally, said Peterson, booth
employees are well-versed in boston’s
theater community. they “see every-
thing,” she added, and can help people
find new arts offerings throughout the
city.
“every single day, we hear about
grandparents who are taking their
grandkids [to a show] for the first
time, friends who are able to go twice
as often because of the price,” Peter-
son said. “it’s a way to connect and be
able to, at the last minute, put togeth-
er amazing plans.”

The rise of the ‘earlymoon’
Going on a prenuptial trip is becoming increasingly popular
By Allison Duncan
O
New YOrk times
ne month before their
July 2023 wedding,
shrestha maharaj, 28,
an analytics and insights
manager based in south
Africa, and sumeeth suthurgam, 31, a
digital design lead, took an earlymoon.
the couple spent a long weekend in
Umdloti, a small resort village along the
northern coast of kwa-Zulu Natal in
south Africa, just a 45-minute drive
from their home. maharaj described
their earlymoon as a “break from the
chaos,” where they enjoyed electric
scooter riding, table tennis playing,
beach walking, and even practicing
their first dance. “A change of scenery
was necessary for that,” maharaj said,
laughing. “it’s amazing what that’ll do
even when you’re still in the same city.”
for couples who want to bask in the
engagement period before their wed-
dings, going on a prenuptial trip — or
an earlymoon — is becoming increas-
ingly popular. it’s different from both a
mini-moon — a quick getaway after the
wedding to decompress — and a honey-
moon, in which a couple takes a longer,
more elaborate post-wedding vacation.
“we really just needed a break and
wanted to de-stress before our wed-
ding,” maharaj said of their earlymoon.
“indian weddings can be intense. we
had four wedding events over three
days and DiY-ed a lot of it.”

couples for the 10 percent increase in
travel inquiries from earlymooners that
magma Global has received so far this
year. “the earlymoon trend represents
a shift in how couples approach their
wedding prep and prioritize their time
together before the big day.”
Janoff also mentioned that typically
couples take their earlymoons six to
eight weeks before their weddings, fol-
lowing the bridal shower and bachelor/
bachelorette parties. she has sent cou-
ples to places like montauk, N.Y., ber-
muda. and Aspen, colo., for spring and
summer nuptials, while couples marry-
ing in the fall or winter often travel to
mexico and the caribbean. “No matter
which destination they choose, there is
always a massage appointment made,”
she said, jokingly.
tom marchant, a founder and ceO
of the luxury travel company black to-
mato, said earlymoons unlock more
destination options as couples aren’t
traditionally bound to a specific post-
wedding time frame.
He organized an earlymoon to bhu-
tan and india for a client couple six
months before their August 2023 wed-
ding. then, after the couple’s summer
nuptials in Newport, r.i., they took a
New england road trip through rhode
island, maine, and connecticut.
“even those who have wedding
planners feel the heat as the date ap-
proaches, so we find people are more at
ease with some distance between the
big day and the earlymoon,” said
marchant. “traveling right after a wed-
ding can be frantic. An earlymoon
strips away the noise from that and al-
lows more focus on spending meaning-
ful time with each other.”

Pritchard revels in title glory

Celtics guard gets
UsA select call
By Adam Himmelsbach
glOBE STAFF
lAS VEgAS — Three weeks
have passed, but reminders of the
shot continue to appear in Payton
Pritchard’s text message threads
fairly often.
Sometimes they show an angle
that Pritchard has never seen be-
fore. Sometimes they’re just smart-
ly edited, with some slow-motion
effects and cool music.
“I mean, obviously, people send
it to me all the time,” Pritchard
said Sunday, smiling.
But no one will ever find a view
better than Pritchard’s that night.
With four seconds left in the sec-
ond quarter of game 5 of the nBA
Finals, Mavericks star luka Doncic
stood at the free throw line with
his team trailing the Celtics by 18
points.
Pritchard had emerged as a
specialist in these late-quarter situ-
ations due to his unusual combina-
tion of speed, shooting, and fear-
lessness, and Celtics coach Joe
Mazzulla had just turned to him in
this spot once again, his first ap-
pearance of the game.
“He just knows I’m capable of
hitting those kinds of shots,” Prit-
chard said.
After Doncic missed the free
throw, Celtics forward Al Horford
grabbed the rebound, swiveled,
and quickly flipped a pass to Prit-
chard, who took one dribble,
pulled up from a few feet behind
midcourt, and hoped for the best.
“Just get a shot up and give it a
chance to go in,” Pritchard said.
“That’s literally all that was on my
mind. Just put it up in the air and
get enough room to get a clean
look up.”
The ball slid through the net,
the TD garden crowd erupted, and
the Celtics’ nBA championship be-
gan to feel inevitable. For Prit-
chard, the shot instantly became
indelible, a moment that will ap-
pear in nBA Finals highlight reels
for decades.

Devers backs
Crawford gem
with two HRs
By Julian McWilliams
glOBE STAFF

Red sox 3 nEW YORk — With one out in the

top of the ninth inning Sunday
Yankees 0 night, Yankees fans who thought
their team had a chance to steal another win
from the Red Sox hit the exits.
Rafael Devers, the franchise pillar just
named to his third All-Star game, was the rea-
son.
Devers clubbed his second solo home run of
the game, this one a no-doubter to right-center
field off reliever Michael Tonkin, stamping what
would be a 3-0 Sox victory and series win at Yan-
kee Stadium.
“At the end, he just put us on his shoulders
and carried us to a ‘W,’ ” manager Alex Cora said.
That Devers even got to a pitch as high and
outside as that one was is both unfathomable
and predictable. Unfathomable because nobody
is supposed to get to that pitch and yank it 423
feet to the pull side for a homer. Predictable be-
cause it’s quintessential Devers. He’s the only
one who could do such a thing.

Injured DPs, lack of depth handcuff Porter

The Designated Player Rule has not al-
ways worked in favor of the Revolution.
Part of the reason is the Revolution
were reluctant to invest when it was
dubbed the (David) “Beckham Rule” in
2007. And after deciding to max out on
DPs, the Revolution have found it difficult
to keep their most expensive performers
healthy.
Only one, striker giacomo Vrioni, was
available for a difficult stretch of three
games in a week — concluding with a 2-0
loss at the Seattle Sounders on Saturday
night.
Captain Carles gil (calf ) could return
for next Saturday’s game against Orlando,
but forward Tomás Chancalay (knee) is
out for the season. The three were togeth-
er in the starting lineup for seven games,
and that includes Chancalay going down
40 seconds into a loss against new York
City FC, and had a 2-4-1 record in those
matches.
Remarkably, the Revolution (7-12-1,
22 points) have been able to get by with-
out some of their highest-paid players —
and lacking depth at other positions, as
well. They are 5-2-0 in their last seven
games.
But last week’s matches illustrate the
difference between getting by and excel-
ling.
On June 29, the Columbus Crew rout-
ed new England, 5-1, with a lineup that
included forwards Cucho Hernández and
Diego Rossi, plus midfielder Darlington
nagbe. The hosts matched the Crew at
most positions, but not in attacking roles.
Four days later, the Revolution recov-
ered for a 2-1 victory over Atlanta United.
Vrioni tallied twice as the team fielded
five central defenders, including Andrew

Porter’s roster NBA title win

limits his choices

Continued from Page C1
The Revolution are especially thin on the wings after
losing chancalay, ema Boateng (leg), and Nacho gil
(knee). Dylan Borrero then left warm-ups saturday
with a quad injury.
Their depth situation contrasts with the sounders,
who used Pedro de la vega — the second-most expen-
sive transfer acquisition in team history — and leading
scorer Raul Ruidiaz (eight goals) as substitutes.
“it’s indicative of where we’re at when they sub in a
$10 million player, and we have a Revs ii guy coming
in,” coach caleb Porter said.
Of course injuries happen; they are part of sports,
and all teams have to deal with them. The bigger prob-
lem is lack of roster flexibility.
There is an overload of central defenders and hold-
ing midfielders. At striker, there is only vrioni, as Wood
is limited to 15 minutes a game, according to Porter. in
comparison, the crew’s options at striker include Her-
nandez, christian Ramirez, and canadian national
teamer Jacen Russell-Rowe.
The Revolution are fortunate to have versatile per-
formers such as Farrell and ian Harkes, who filled in at
right wing against the New York Red Bulls last month
in a 1-0 win. But having to play potential starters out of
position is a sign of near desperation.
Another limitation is guaranteed contracts, which

finally beginning to feel real.

Alex bowman secured a spot in the NAscAR cup series playoffs
when he held on for the victory on a rainy street course in downtown
chicago. He is the 12th cup series driver to win, leaving four remain-

race was stopped for more than 100 minutes because of rain, and
NAscAR set a cutoff time of 8:20 p.m. because of the fading sunlight.
When Bowman crossed the start-finish line after that time, the white
flag came out followed by the checkered. tyler Reddick made a late
push, but he got into a wall trying to catch up to Bowman. ty Gibbs

vers barehanded a slow roller

and nabbed DJ Lemahieu for
the third out. Without the play,
the Yankees would have had
runners on first and second
with the top of the order com-
ing up and ben Rice (three
homers Saturday) at the plate.
In the significant moments,
Devers silenced the bronx,
where he has 16 of his 28 hom-
ers against the Yankees.
“This is one of the best ball-
parks in the league to play
[in],” Devers said. “Everything
feels better than any other ball-
park.”
“He was so engaged,” Cora
added. “It was fun to watch.”
Crawford’s effort couldn’t
go unnoticed either. His mar-
gin for error was limited, but
he needed just 40 pitches to get
through five innings, the few-
est since Ivan Nova did the
same for the Pirates in 2017.
The righthander tossed just 68
pitches (54 strikes) over seven
innings, limiting the Yankees
to four hits.
“I think that’s probably the
most efficient I’ve ever been,”
Crawford said. “It feels good to
throw a bunch of strikes and
get a lot of early outs like that.”
The slimmest of margins
was tested with Crawford hav-
ing to face the meat of the Yan-
kee order in the seventh, be-
ginning with Juan Soto, who
laced a double to right-center.
Crawford dialed it up a
notch to strike out Aaron
Judge. He then induced an Al-
ex Verdugo ground out that ad-
vanced Soto to third, followed
by an Anthony Volpe line out
to left that ended the threat.
“I was just trying to pound
the strike zone, trying to get
strike one, and then trying to
[throw] competitive pitches af-
ter that ,” Crawford said. “I
think strike one got them kind
of aggressive and they weren’t
able to make a whole lot of sol-
id contact.”
The Red Sox have won six of
their last seven games and are
within 3½ games of New York
for the American League’s top
wild-card spot.
“Understanding where we
are in the standings, we have
to just keep getting greedy,” Co-
ra said.
Devers has been the greedi-
est. He has hit homers in con-
secutive games for the third
time this season, and 11 of his
21 have either tied a contest or
given the team the lead.
“ He l o v e s t h e s p o t l i g h t ,
man,” Cora said. “He’s very qui-
et about it.”
Nothing was quiet about De-
vers on Sunday.

Best sign for surprise team’s future would be new Cora contract
uon bAsebALL
Continued from Page C1
He had Kenley Jansen and Chris
martin in the bullpen, but no sure
things beyond the two veterans. The
lineup lacked power and experience,
and then its linchpin once Trevor Story
was lost for the season with a shoulder
injury on April 5.
The roster as a whole had too many
lefthanded hitters and not enough
lefthanded pitchers. It still does.
New chief baseball officer Craig
breslow readily admitted the winter
had not worked out how he hoped.
five months later, the Sox are 49-40
after beating the Yankees, 3-0, on Sun-
day night and very much in the hunt for
a playoff spot with the season more
than half over. It’s not perfect, but
they’re a competitive team that plays
hard and is fun to watch.
Rafael Devers, Jarren Duran, and
Tanner Houck will represent the orga-
nization in the All-Star Game. Jansen
and Connor Wong had a case, too.
Cora took a bag of spare parts and
built a contender.
Giolito only knew Cora from across
the field until this season. He has been
around the team quite a bit as he recov-
ers from elbow surgery and has been
impressed with how Cora has led it
around the obstacles put in their way.
“The bullpen management, manag-
ing the innings for the starters. Our sit-
uational hitting, bringing in pinch hit-
ters, it’s all been good,” Giolito said.
“We were dealt a strange hand at the
beginning of the year, and he’s been
able to put these guys in the right posi-
tion and let their talent shine while
some of them are still developing in the
big leagues.”
Devers, Duran, and Houck are
homegrown players, a testament to the
organization’s ability to develop talent.
It’s a good sign for the future. A better
one would be to work a contract exten-
sion with Cora during the All-Star
break, or at least start the process.
Cora is signed through the end of
the season and he has been careful to
say he will wait until then to decide
what he does next. He won’t even say he
wants to stay with the Sox, which is
smart.
Every manager was paying attention
when the Cubs signed Craig Counsell to
a five-year, $40 million deal in Novem-
ber. That’s a big leap from the $2.75
million Cora is making this season.
He has a World Series ring and
Counsell does not. Cora also has shown
the ability to handle the demands of a
big market. That includes the twice-dai-
ly press conferences during the season
that set the tone for the organization in
the eyes of the public.
more than anything, this young
team has shown it can win with Cora on
the top step of the dugout. With any
other candidate, it’ll just be a guess.
That Duran and Houck are headed
to the All-Star Game is further evidence
that Cora should be in place when Ro-
man Anthony, marcelo mayer, and Kyle
Teel reach the majors. Cora showed he
could manage stars in 2018. This year
has shown he can succeed with a
younger team and unproven talent. The
Red Sox are going to need that in the
years ahead.
Then there’s this: the perception
around the game, and certainly in the
eyes of the fan base, is that the Sox are
succeeding despite the actions of own-
ership.
Having Devers, brayan bello, and
Ceddanne Rafaela signed to long-term
contracts dispels some of that notion.
Locking down Cora another 3-5 years
would be a louder statement.
It’s that or compete against him next
season.

LONDON — There carlos Alcaraz was, down
on his backside at a base line below the royal
Box, briefly taking a seat in the grass after doing
the splits when he slipped while running to hit a
semifinals by Novak Djokovic, who then lost to
Alcaraz in a five-set final.

forehand during his fourth-round match sunday.
so now what? give up on the point and get
ready for the next? Ha. Not this kid. Alcaraz
popped to his feet, sprinted to his left to get to a
backhand wide of the doubles alley, then raced
forward to reach a short shot and, eventually,
watched his opponent send a volley long.
That allowed Alcaraz to claim the second set
of what would become a 6-3, 6-4, 1-6, 7-5 victory
against No. 16 seed Ugo Humbert at centre
court. The defending champion at the All eng-
land club celebrated the moment by raising his
right index finger in a “No. 1” gesture and shout-
ing “Vamos!” as thousands of spectators rose.
The 21-year-old spaniard is making a habit of
turning the impossible into the possible, figuring
out ways to win points many other players would
concede and, in the bigger picture, breaking new
ground time after time. He’s been the first teen-
ager to reach No. 1 in the ATP rankings, and last
month’s French Open championship made him
the youngest man to win grand slam titles on
three surfaces: hard, grass, and clay courts.
Asked during his on-court interview how he’d
describe the remarkable sequence against Hum-
bert, Alcaraz smiled.
“Unbelievable, i guess. i just try to fight every
point, every ball,” he said. “it doesn’t matter what
part of the court.”
Later, at his news conference, he recalled hav-
ing made that same sort of recovery from a fall
during his thrill-a-minute marathon against rival
Jannik sinner at the 2022 Us Open, a tourna-
ment Alcaraz went on to win.
There is a possible rematch against the No. 1-
ranked sinner looming in the semifinals. each
needs one more win to get there. in Tuesday’s
quarterfinals, Alcaraz will face No. 12 Tommy
Paul, and sinner goes up against 2021 Us Open
tour de france
old American through 15 sets entering the day.
Like Alcaraz, sinner is capable of improvised
racket wizardry, as he displayed in the third set,
bringing his racket around his back at the base
line and flicking a between-the-legs shot that he
followed with a passing winner.
Paul reached his first Wimbledon quarterfinal
by using a 41-14 edge in winners to extend his
unbeaten run to nine matches, all on grass, with
a 6-2, 7-6 (7-3), 6-2 win over roberto Bautista
Agut. medvedev moved on when grigor Dimitrov
stopped because of a leg injury in the first set.
There was another midmatch retirement in a
women’s fourth-round match: 2017 Us Open
runner-up madison Keys hurt her leg, took a
medical timeout, and then briefly tried to contin-
ue. But she was wiping away tears as she walked
to the net when she decided she needed to quit at
5-all in the third set against Jasmine Paolini, who
was a finalist at this year’s French Open.
Paolini next meets No. 19 emma Navarro,
who defeated reigning Us Open champion coco
gauff, 6-4, 6-3, in the day’s last match. The sec-
ond-seeded gauff’s exit comes the day after No. 1
iga swiatek lost and leaves just two of the top 10
seeded women in the bracket: No. 4 elena ry-
bakina, the 2022 champion, and No. 7 Paolini.
The other women’s quarterfinal established
sunday is Lulu sun against Donna Vekic. sun
eliminated 2021 Us Open champion emma rad-
ucanu, 6-2, 5-7, 6-2, to become the first woman to
get through qualifying and reach the Wimbledon
quarterfinals since 2010, and the first woman
from New Zealand to get that far at the All eng-
land club in the Open era, which began in 1968.
Vekic dropped to her knees after getting past
Paula Badosa, 6-2, 1-6, 6-4, in a match disrupted
by three rain delays to make her first quarterfinal
at the grass-court event in 10 appearances.

TrOYes, France — French-

man Anthony Turgis emerged
victorious from a long break-
away through the dust of gravel
roads to claim the ninth stage
of the Tour de France after a
hectic day of racing, marked by
relentless attacks sunday.
Behind the breakaway, race
leader Tadej Pogacar tried to set
the race on fire as the fight be-
tween main contenders raged
but could not gain time on his
rivals for the yellow jersey.
Turgis, who rides for the To-
tal energies team, posted the
biggest win of his career in a
sprint, edging Tom Pidcock and
Derek gee in the champagne
city of Troyes. it was the third
stage win by a French rider
since the race started last week.
“The team put its trust in
me by giving me carte blanche
today,” said Turgis. “i dedicate
this win to all the people who
trusted me.”
There was no major change
in the overall standings, with
Pogacar keeping his 33-second
lead over remco evenepoel.
Two-time defending champion
Jonas Vingegaard remained in
third place, 1:15 off the pace.
The tough stage took riders
on a nearly 124-mile trek
through 14 sections of so-called
white roads — including six in

proved it with a series of sharp
attacks that put his rivals on the
back foot. Primoz roglic suf-
fered but managed to bridge
gaps every time he got dropped
and kept his fourth place over-
all, 1:36 behind Pogacar.
Vingegaard adopted a con-
servative strategy and did not
collaborate with Pogacar and
evenepoel when they had the
possibility to break away from
other top contenders.
The peloton will enjoy its
first rest day monday.
The Tour paid tribute to
Norwegian rider Andre Drege,
who died saturday after crash-
ing in a downhill at the Tour of
during a moment of applause.
There was a flurry of attacks
from the start. A group of 10 in-
cluding Turgis managed to es-
cape before the first sector of
gravel and were joined by a
handful of counterattackers.
Behind, a traffic jam formed
at the foot of a very steep seg-
ment of white roads, with many
competitors forced to dismount
and run up the climb. Vinge-
gaard and Pogacar avoided the
jam but roglic lagged about 30
seconds behind at one point.
Vingegaard later suffered a
mechanical problem and team-
mate Jan Tratnik gave his lead-
er his bike. Pogacar then sped

Pogacar loves riding on this
difficult terrain, having won the

Austria. To honor his memory,
cyclists from the Norwegian
team Uno-X mobility arrived at
the start line five minutes
ahead of the start, with the rest
of the peloton staying behind
up the pace, followed by evene-

to add to the frenetic pace.

GALLO, Rosemary A.
With profound sadness, we announce
the passing of Rosemary A. Gallo,
a dedicated and humble soul who
touched the hearts of many throughout
her blessed life. Born on May 9, 1938
in Boston, MA, Rosemary was called to
her heavenly home on July 3, 2024.
Rosemary’s Catholic faith was her
guiding light and the cornerstone of her
existence. She attended daily Mass at
the Saint Francis Chapel in Boston and
the chapel at Youville Assisted Living.
In her youth, she was an active member
of The Daughters of the Church of the
Holy Eucharist and went on many
missions trips, which displayed her un-
wavering commitment to her Catholic
faith and a testament of her selfless and
caring nature.
Rosemary devoted her professional
life to the healing arts as a nurse at
Boston City Hospital and Don Orione
Home, East Boston, where she took
great pleasure in providing care for
those in need. In her leisure time,
Rosemary enjoyed visiting relatives on
holidays, where she would savor a good
Italian meal.
Rosemary is survived by her cousins,
Clara Mottola, Edith Shaheen of
Revere, Gigi Ricciardelli of Vermont;
and nieces, Michele Eaton and Marilyn
Maher. She was preceded in death by
her parents, Maria and Pasquale Gallo;
her sisters, Grace Newman and her
husband, Edward and Louise Gallo. As
we mourn Rosemary’s passing, we take
solace in the words of the Holy Bible,
“Blessed are those who mourn, for they
shall be comforted” (Matthew 5:4).
A Funeral Service for Rosemary will
be held Wednesday, July 10, 2024, at
Paul Buonfiglio & Sons Funeral Home,
128 Revere Street, REVERE, MA, from
10 to 11:30AM, followed by Mass at
Saint Anthony Church, 250 Revere
Street, Revere, MA, at 12:00PM.

Paal Enger,
soccer player
who stole
‘The Scream’
By Alex Williams
NEW YORK tImES
paal Enger, a rising prospect
for a celebrated Norwegian soc-
cer club who traded a game that
he loved for another — art theft
— that he absolutely relished,
culminating in his infamous
1994 heist of Edvard munch’s
masterpiece “the Scream,” died
june 29 in Oslo. he was 57.
his death was confirmed by
Nils christian Nordhus, an Oslo-
based lawyer who formerly rep-
resented mr. Enger. Nordhus did
not provide any more details.
mr. Enger, who was born in
Oslo on march 26, 1967, rose
from the junior system of vaaler-
enga, a five-time champion of
Norway’s top-level league, now
known as Eliteserien, and in
1985 made his debut with the
club.
As a youth, he was a fan of
the Argentine soccer star Diego
maradona. But his real hero, ac-
cording to a 2021 profile in the
Athletic, was Don vito corleone,
the fictional crime boss played
by marlon Brando in “the god-
father.” mr. Enger was so im-
mersed in mafia lore that when
he was 15, he flew to New York
to see for himself the locations
where the Academy Award-win-
ning “godfather” films were
shot.
By then, he was no stranger
to the world of life outside the
law. “I grew up in tveita, on the
east side of Oslo, and people
there don’t have much money,”
he said in an interview last year
with the British tabloid the Sun.
“We started doing crime when
we were very young and I found
it exciting. I carried on because I
enjoyed it very much.”
graduating from boosting
candy to cracking safes and
blowing up automated teller ma-
chines with neighborhood
friends, he proved to be a phe-
nom in athletics and crime.
his outlaw alter ego was no
secret to his teammates, who no-
ticed that he threw away his
tracksuits after every practice
rather than wash them, and that
he frequently showed up in luxu-
ry cars that were far beyond a
teenager’s budget. “I remember
once he popped up with a BmW
735i,” one former teammate told
the Athletic. “he liked to steal
expensive cars, there’s no doubt
about it.”
Despite his taste for larceny,
most on the squad considered
mr. Enger a model teammate,
even as his pursuits beyond the
law had him living like a super-
star. “I did so much crime in my
20s,” he told the Sun, “that I had
everything — cars, boats, money,
the most beautiful women in Os-
lo. But I wanted more.”
Specifically, he wanted one of
his nation’s crown jewels. “the
Scream,” which is one of the
most recognizable — and repro-
duced — paintings in the world.

plored themes including sexuality
Mirta Díaz-Balart, wife of Fidel Castro before the Cuban revolution, at 95
By Brian Murphy
WAShINgtON pOSt
mirta Díaz-Balart, a member
of a prominent cuban family
who was married to fidel castro
during his rise as a guerrilla
leader, and who later was forced
to leave their son behind when
she fled after castro’s commu-
nist forces seized control, died in
madrid at age 95.
the death was announced
july 6 by her grandson, fidel
Alejandro castro Smirnov, in a
social media post, but no other
details were given.
ms. Díaz-Balart, whose sev-
en-year marriage with castro
ended in 1955, was a symbol of
castro’s complicated history: a
man of relative privilege who
married into a wealthy and well-
connected clan that he turned
against.
her family occupied a politi-
cal dynasty that was closely con-
nected to fulgencio Batista, the
strongman president who was
overthrown by castro’s rebels in
january 1959. She then was
among the matriarchs of the cu-
ban diaspora — concentrated in
South florida — that included
Edvard Munch’s “The Scream” is displayed at the National Museum in Oslo.
Mr. Enger (right; shown in court) was sentenced to six years
and three months for stealing one of the versions of the
famed “Scream” painting.
and madness, made four versions
of “the Scream,” two rendered in
paint and two in pastel and cray-
on. the only one in private hands,
an 1895 pastel, sold at auction in
2012 for nearly $120 million to fi-
nancier Leon Black.
carrying emotional scars
from his childhood with a vio-
lent stepfather, mr. Enger found
a kindred spirit in the agonized
howling of the painting’s ghostly
subject, an expression of person-
al anguish as well as a broader
existential dread.
“my obsession with this pic-
ture started the first time I saw
it,” mr. Enger said in “the man
Who Stole ‘the Scream,’” a docu-
mentary released last year. “As
soon as I got close to the picture,
I got an extraordinary feeling. Of
anxiety. Strange things in my
head. I had such an intense con-
nection with ‘the Scream’ right
away. And it’s never left me.”
having grown accustomed to
just taking anything he desired,
he decided that the famous
painting should be no exception.
In 1988, mr. Enger, accompa-
nied by his friend and longtime
partner in crime Bjorn grytdal,
slipped through a window at the
munch museum in Oslo to steal
a version of “the Scream.” But a
hitch in their plan led them in-
stead to snatch another munch
masterwork, “Love and pain.”
nephews elected to congress,
Representative mario Diaz-
Balart, a florida Republican,
and former congressman Lin-
coln Díaz-Balart, also a florida
Republican.
ms. Díaz-Balart had remar-
ried by the time castro’s insur-
gents took control. She and her
new family fled the country but
had to leave behind the son she
had with castro, fidel castro Di-
az-Balart, known as fidelito.
After castro’s death in 2016,
she told the Spanish newspaper
El mundo that she had visited
havana several times to see her
son. “But I have never seen or
spoken to fidel again,” she add-
ed. She called their marriage
“something distant” from their
youth.
“But also as a very beautiful
period of my youth,” she said. “I
always wished him good things.”
their son, a nuclear scientist,
took his own life in 2018 after a
struggle with depression, cuba’s
state media reported.

“the disappointment lasted
days,” mr. Enger later recalled,
“but then it started to become
fun.” In part, that was because
he kept the painting hidden in
the ceiling of a pool hall he
owned that was frequented by
off-duty police officers.
“they don’t know it’s hang-
ing just one meter from them,”
he added. “that was the best
feeling. We let them play for free
just to have them there.”
the amusement ended when
his accomplice let word slip to a
neighbor who was a police infor-
mant. mr. Enger spent four
years in prison, effectively end-
ing any hope of soccer glory.
Even so, his ambition
burned. he turned his sights
back to his muse and quarry.
On feb. 12, 1994, Norway’s
attention — along with consider-
able law enforcement resources
— was focused on the opening
ceremony of the Winter Olym-
pics in Lillehammer.
mr. Enger took advantage of
the distraction. he and an ac-
complice clambered up a ladder
outside the National gallery in
Oslo, smashed a window and
slipped in — and within 50 sec-
onds, the Athletic reported,
slipped out with the museum’s
version of “the Scream,” which
at the time was valued at about
$55 million.
or. Banes was also the birthplace
of Batista in 1901.
While studying philosophy
and literature at the University
of havana, she met castro. he
was studying law and came from
a family that owned a 2,000-acre
plantation in eastern cuba. the
couple was married in 1948 and
went to the United States on an
extended honeymoon. A wed-
ding photo shows a clean-shaven
castro next to ms. Díaz-Balart in
a white gown and holding a bou-
quet.
In New York, they stayed at a
brownstone on West 82nd Street
near central park while castro
browsed bookshops (astonished
to find works by marx and Soviet
writers) and ms. Díaz-Balart in-
dulged in shopping sprees. In
miami, they spent several weeks
at a miami Beach hotel. their
son was born in 1949.
castro received his law de-
gree in 1950 and set up a legal
practice in havana. the couple
had political ambitions. he ran
for a seat in the cuban legisla-
ture with the populist Ortodoxo
party. But the campaign was
halted in march 1952 when Ba-

note: “A thousand thanks for
your poor security.”
given his history, mr. Enger
was an obvious suspect. Still, he
knew that the police had noth-
ing on him, so he began taunting
them, calling with false leads.
“I don’t think I really under-
stood completely how much it
meant for the National gallery,
the police, and everyone,” he lat-
er said. “I made a fool of them on
national tv.”
the stymied authorities even-
tually reached out to Scotland
Yard, which dispatched charles
hill, a detective from the Lon-
don police’s art and antiques
unit, to Norway. hill, posing as a
representative of the j. paul get-
ty museum in california, ex-
pressed interest in buying “the
Scream” from an art dealer who
was connected to mr. Enger.
Despite misgivings over the
highly unlikely scenario that a
prestigious museum would shell
out for a stolen masterpiece, mr.
Enger dispatched grytdal, one of
his accomplices in the theft, to
pursue a deal.
“I felt, ‘maybe I have had it
long enough,” mr. Enger later re-
called. “maybe just drop all
those dreams I had of the game
to come. I was totally sure the
police had almost no evidence
against me, so the only one they
could arrest was Bjorn.”
that too proved to be a highly
unlikely scenario. three months
after the theft, police arrested
mr. Enger.
mr. Enger once said that he
had “four children with four dif-
ferent mothers from four coun-
tries.” Information on survivors
was not immediately available.
In 1996, he was sentenced to
six years and three months in
prison, where he took up paint-
ing, taking stylistic inspiration
from his artistic hero.
After his release, he estab-
lished an art career of his own.
Still, he did not go clean. In
2015, he was charged with steal-
ing 17 paintings from a gallery.
tista staged a coup and retook
the presidency he first held in
the 1940s. (the post-coup par-
liament included ms. Díaz-
Balart’s brother, Rafael, who
served until 1956.)
castro became an archfoe of
the Batista regime — as well as
Batista’s allies such as ms. Díaz-
Balart’s family. She was caught
in the middle.
In july 1953, castro led a
failed attempt to take over the ar-
my’s moncada Barracks in Santi-
ago de cuba. castro was among
those arrested but was spared ex-
ecution after appeals for leniency
by an archbishop with ties to his
family. he was sentenced to 15
years in prison and released two
years later under an amnesty de-
clared by Batista.
ms. Díaz-Balart became a cu-
riosity in the eyes of the cuban
public. By birth she was squarely
in the Batista camp; by marriage
she was with the insurgents. She
was among the few people al-
lowed to visit castro in prison on
what is now called the Isla de la
juventud, or Isle of Youth.
After castro left prison, he
went into self-exile in mexico
Wayne S. Smith, a leading
critic of embargo on Cuba
By Clay Risen
NEW YORK tImES
Wayne S. Smith, a veteran
cuba expert at the State Depart-
ment who, after resigning in
protest over America’s embargo
against the island nation in
1982, spent nearly four decades
leading efforts to rebuild rela-
tions between Washington and
havana, died on june 28 at his
home in New Orleans. he was
91.
his daughter, melinda Smith
Ulloa, said the cause was com-
plications of Alzheimer’s dis-
ease.
for more than 24 years after
he joined the foreign Service in
1958, mr. Smith was America’s
man in havana, whether he was
physically in the cuban capital
or dealing with it from a desk in
Washington.
Later, after leaving the State
Department, he used his exten-
sive experience to carry out a
sustained campaign against
America’s strategy of isolating
cuba, while also leading private
and congressional delegations
to the island in an attempt to
build avenues of dialogue.
“he was one of the foremost
spokespeople in favor of nor-
malizing relations,” William
Leogrande, an expert on cuba
affairs at American University
in Washington, said in an inter-
view.
A witty and nimble writer,
mr. Smith turned out scores of
opinion pieces, journal essays,
and books, including a memoir-
cum-history, “the closest of En-
emies: A personal and Diplo-
matic Account of U.S.-cuban
Relations Since 1957,” pub-
lished in 1987.
“cuba seems to have the
same effect on US administra-
tions,” he liked to say, “as the
full moon once had on were-
wolves.”
mr. Smith first arrived in cu-
ba in the midst of the revolution
against the government of ful-
gencio Batista. After the govern-
ment fell on jan. 1, 1959, he
oversaw the evacuation of US
citizens from cuba — including
future actress Kathleen turner,
whose father worked at the em-
bassy.
he became a vocal critic
within the State Department of
America’s hardening stance
against cuba, and he was
among the officials selected by
president jimmy carter in 1977
to reopen relations. two years
later carter sent him to havana
to run the United States Inter-
ests Section, which represented
the US in lieu of an embassy.
mr. Smith was no fan of the
cuban regime. But he believed
in the power of diplomacy and
dialogue, and firsthand experi-
ence convinced him that the
embargo was self-defeating and
counter to America’s interests.
the arrival of Ronald Rea-
gan to the White house signaled
a hardening of US policy against
cuba, based in part on the as-
sessment that fidel castro, the
island nation’s leader, was fun-
neling arms to leftist guerrillas
in central America.
mr. Smith fired off a series of
city, where he led an anti-Batista
faction known as the 26th of ju-
ly movement, commemorating
the date of the moncada assault.
ms. Díaz-Balart stayed in cu-
ba to seek a divorce. According
to her accounts, the marriage
ended because of castro’s affair
with a married havana socialite,
Natalia Revuelta clews, known
as Naty. castro and Revuelta had
a daughter, Alina fernández,
who fled cuba for the United
States in 1993 and became an
opponent of castro’s govern-
ment.
the 2019 book, “Young cas-
tro” by journalist jonathan m.
hansen, presented castro’s ver-
sion of the strains in their mar-
riage. hansen described castro
becoming enraged when he
heard a radio report in prison
that his wife had been dismissed
from a no-show job in the Batis-
ta government. “castro couldn’t
imagine mirta ever taking a job
in the government of his sworn
enemy,” wrote hansen, “no mat-
ter how strapped she was for
cash.”
After the divorce, ms. Díaz-
Balart and her son spent time in
c9
critical cables to the State De-
partment; the department, in
response, tried to shift him to a
new post in Uganda. Incensed,
he resigned in protest in August
1982.
Weeks later, he published a
jeremiad in the magazine for-
eign policy, accusing the admin-
istration of “myopia” on cuba
for continuing what he said was
a long tradition of errors.
“the administration is deter-
mined to make past mistakes all
over again,” he wrote. “Its ap-
proach to the cuban problem is
as hackneyed as it has been un-
successful and evokes a power-
ful sense of déjà vu.”
Wayne Sanford Smith was
born on Aug. 16, 1932, in the
town of Seguin, texas, east of
San Antonio. his mother, Opal
(Baldwin) Smith, managed the
home; his father, paul Smith,
was an oil field engineer, a job
that kept the family moving
around texas and Oklahoma
throughout Wayne’s childhood.
After graduating from high
school at 16, he persuaded his
father to sign papers allowing
him to enlist in the marines as a
minor. he served in combat
during the Korean War, then as
a drill instructor at parris Is-
land, S.c., one of the marines’
primary training sites.
he received an honorable
discharge in 1953, after which
he enrolled at mexico city col-
lege (now part of the National
Autonomous University of mex-
ico) on a football scholarship.
In 1957 he joined the State
Department, where he worked
on cuban and Latin American
affairs. he passed the foreign
Service exam in 1958.
he married Roxanna phil-
lips, who also worked at the
State Department, in 1958, just
before being dispatched to cuba
— their trip south, by car and
boat, became their honeymoon.
She died in 2014.
Along with their daughter,
he leaves their son, Sanford,
and two grandchildren. A previ-
ous marriage, to jacqueline
Richard, ended in divorce, and a
son from that union, michael
Smith, died before him.
mr. Smith also served assign-
ments in Argentina and Brazil.
he received two master’s de-
grees from columbia, in philos-
ophy and international rela-
tions, both in 1962. he also
earned a doctorate in political
science from george Washing-
ton University in 1977.
After retiring from govern-
ment, he worked as a fellow at
the carnegie Endowment for In-
ternational peace, taught at the
School for Advanced Interna-
tional Studies at johns hopkins
University, and in 1992 joined
the center for International pol-
icy, a progressive think tank, as
a senior fellow.
the embargo against cuba
remains, and in that sense mr.
Smith did not live to see his ef-
forts succeed. But in 2015, the

tions with cuba and reopened
its embassy. mr. Smith was on
hand in havana to watch the
flag-raising ceremony.
the United States before return-
ing to cuba. She once sent her
son to mexico to visit castro, but
he did not allow the boy to re-
turn. She hired a team to snatch
her son and bring him back to
cuba.
She soon married Emilio
Núñez portuondo, a lawyer and
son of a cuban diplomat. castro,
meanwhile, was building a guer-
rilla militia from mountain hide-
outs in cuba after returning in
December 1956 with more than
80 followers aboard the “gran-
ma,” a vessel whose name was
later adopted by the communist
party newspaper in cuba.
Shortly after castro took
power, ms. Díaz-Balart and her
husband fled the country. castro
demanded his son fidelito re-
main in cuba.
her husband died in 2006.
ms. Díaz-Balart’s brother, Waldo
Díaz-Balart, is a madrid-based
artist. complete information on
survivors was not immediately
available. her extended family
includes nephew josé Díaz-

along the mystic river, with sev-

boston boatworks started life in 1995, as a part-
nership between scott smith, mark lindsay, and
Geoff berger. (lindsay, a renowned designer of sail-
boats, died in 2019, and berger is now Ceo of Hinck-

three-story building with offices on the top, a factory
floor, and massive roll-up doors at both ends. one of
those roll-up doors faces the mystic, where docks and
a lift allow the company to get boats in and out of the
water.
boston boatworks first made custom racing sail-
boats, but eventually concluded that that market was
too small. but the company realized that lightweight
materials and designs used to make sailboats faster
had not penetrated the world of powerboats.

these benefits to get by, the law-
yers say, and waiting years to re-
ceive them can be an incredible
hardship.
Sorrentino estimates he’s
spent more than 1,000 hours of
his “golden years” trying to get
the benefits he’s owed — and
shed light on a broken system.
“A long time ago it stopped
being about me. it’s much big-
ger,” he said. “Retirement bene-
fits by their nature are time lim-
ited. Retirement’s the last chap-
ter of life.”
And nobody should spend it
fighting to get the benefits
they’ve been promised, he said.
for Sorrentino, the dispute
revolves around the administra-
tion of the New england New-
born Screening Program, which
he was part of for more than 18
years at what is currently called
the Massachusetts State Public
Health Laboratory in Jamaica
Plain. the program, which he
ran for more than eight years,

the State Retirement board
would not provide details about
why returning employees have
to be on the job for two years in
order to collect pensions they
had previously earned.
the Contributory Retire-
ment Appeal board, known as
CRAb, also declined to provide
information about its caseload
or wait times.
if CRAb rules against him,
Sorrentino will get back the
roughly $57,000 he contribut-
ed, including interest, accord-
ing to the State board of Retire-
ment, but not any additional
money he would have received
through monthly payments for
the rest of his life. Many public
employees without the time or
the means to fight the retire-
ment board probably just give
up and agree to these terms,
Sorrentino said.
but considering the thou-
sands of dollars in investments
and interest his contributions
have likely generated for the
state over the past several de-
cades, Sorrentino said, this out-
come would be highly unfair.
And if he were to die before the
case is resolved, his survivors
wouldn’t benefit from those
gains.

cies just by adding more horse-
power. Our approach was to
take weight out of the boat, use
smaller engines — which have
less fuel consumption — and
materials that don’t fatigue as
the boat ages.”
Rather than traditional fi-
berglass, boston boatworks
chose to use more expensive
carbon fiber — which is lighter,
stiffer, and tougher — and bor-
rowed manufacturing tech-
niques from aircraft produc-
tion, which also uses the mate-

Casino’s water shuttles — built
at a cost of about $1 million
each — you’ve seen their work.
in the early 2000s, boston
boatworks was approached by
a North Carolina company,
MJM Yachts, to build a line of
ocean-going yachts; MJM want-
ed to marry boston boatworks’
manufacturing expertise with a
sleek, low-slung design from
doug Zurn, a naval architect in
Marblehead.
MJM quickly became boston
boatworks’ largest customer.
but in 2019, boston boatworks’
relationship with MJM abruptly
ended when MJM decided to
set up its own factory in North
Carolina, citing lower labor and
other costs.
that forced boston boat-
works to scramble. One lifeline
came from a $20 million con-
tract to build 10 boats for the
barton & Gray Mariner’s Club, a
New Hampshire company that
is like Zipcar for the yachting
set. Members can reserve a boat
and captain in places such as
Nantucket, east Hampton, or
boca Raton.

design a boat especially for its
members, who go out for the
day rather than on overnight
trips. What had been a sleeping

could more easily gather

the 48-foot boat, called the
daychaster, is longer, wider,
and larger than the Hinckleys,
but it is 15 to 20 percent more
fuel efficient because of the ma-
terials used by boston boat-
works, said douglas Gray, bar-
ton & Gray’s cofounder and
chief marketing officer.
the daychaser has become
the premium boat in the barton
& Gray’s fleet: members who
want access to the daychaser
pay a higher level of annual
dues — at least $80,000, in ad-
dition to a $20,000 initiation
fee. “the daychaser is very
much a competitive advantage
for us,” Gray said.
barton & Gray recently
signed a contract for its 16th
daychaser boat; three others
have been sold to individual
owners.
in 2023, boston boatworks
announced a new boat that
would be the first to bear its

ed Kaye, chief executive of a
bedford biotech company, Stoke
therapeutics. Kaye, who de-
scribes himself as “a sailor at
heart,” expects to take delivery of
the 50-foot craft with twin diesel
engines later this year. the base
price for that boat, the first mod-
el in the company’s Offshore ex-
press Cruiser line, dubbed the
bb44, is $2.85 million.
“the design appeals to sail-
ors who are really focused on
well-made and functional boats
— not just pretty, fast boats,”
Kaye said. He also likes the idea
of “having a local group of peo-
ple build something of quality
— something that you’ll be
proud of.”
despite a COvid-fueled
surge in recent years, sales of
boats longer than 35 feet in re-
cent years fell 9 percent in the
first four months of this year,
according to the National Ma-
rine Manufacturers Association.
boston boatworks has reduced
its workforce about 30 percent
from its peak of 140 in 2019.
the company is still putting
a dozen or so new boats into the
water each year. the latest: the
Appy, the electric ferry bound
for service on Lake Winnepe-
saukee.
Smith, 66, said he plans to
stick around his company as
long as he can be useful. boston
boatworks, he added, has never
been about making boats at the
lowest possible price, or at the
fastest possible rate.
“We want to build the best,”
he says. “there has always been
an understanding that knowl-
edgeable owners understand
the value of what we do — and
there’s a limited market of
those.”

1959 by the Massachusetts gov-
ernor and health commissioner,
among other founders, to assist
the public health department.
in 1997, after the state in-
spector General revealed finan-
cial improprieties involving
MHRi, the newborn screening
lab and other programs were
transferred to UMass Chan
Medical School.
Sorrentino hadn’t been al-
lowed to make contributions to
the state pension fund during
his time under MHRi and with-
drew what he had previously
put in. but once under the um-
b r e l l a o f t h e s t at e m e d i c a l
school, he started making con-
tributions again, and later re-
paid all the funds in order to
maximize his benefits.
this entire time, Sorrentino
said, his job remained the same:
He worked in the same lab, with
the same people, using the same
state id badge.
Less than a year after the
change to UMass Medical, he
left the Jamaica Plain lab to
work for a newborn screening
company in Pittsburgh, and re-
ceived regular letters over the
next 20 years confirming his eli-
gibility for retirement benefits.
but when he applied for his
roughly $1,400-a-month pen-
sion in late 2018, the retirement
board informed him that em-
ployees who leave public service
must return for at least two con-
secutive years in order to retire
with benefits, rendering him in-
eligible.
Sorrentino was incredulous.
He simply wanted the benefits
he had been investing in. “it’s
not like i’m asking for some-
thing that i didn’t contribute
to,” he said.
He’s been fighting the denial
ever since.
the department of Public
Health wouldn’t comment on
why Sorrentino wasn’t consid-
ered a state employee for his en-
tire tenure, despite working for
the same program in the same
lab the whole time, noting that
he “resigned in 1990 and began
the country, according to the
Pew Charitable trusts.
“ there is no incentive to
speed up the process,” said Pa-
nettiere, who currently has four
CRAb cases that have been
pending for more than four
years.
but retirees get their full
benefit amount, including ret-
roactive payments, if the board
decides in their favor. And given
the fact that there are hundreds
of thousands of members across
the 104 public retirement sys-
tems in Massachusetts and less
than 1,000 cases estimated to
be in dispute — including many
brought by retirees already re-
ceiving a pension — the impact
of the money the pension funds
stands to gain during the ap-
peals process is insignificant,
said bill Keefe, executive direc-
tor of the Public employee Re-
tirement Administration Com-
mission. the status of the state
employees’ pension system is
improving, he added, and on
track to be fully funded by 2036.
One of Panettiere’s clients, a
police officer, has been waiting
for more than seven years for
his case to be resolved. the offi-
cer had a heart attack on the job
at the age of 50 that left him dis-
abled, but due to a dispute over
whether the incident was work
related, he was granted a small-
er pension than what he applied
for. His current income is about
half what it used to be, Panet-
tiere said, forcing him to turn to
family members to help pay his
mortgage.
“in addition to feeling like a
failure because he cannot work
anymore, he is even more de-
pressed by not being able to fi-
nancially care for his family,” Pa-
nettiere said.
Another client, a public em-
ployee who suffered a head inju-
ry at work and has been trying
to collect his pension since
2017, has cancer.
“He may die before his ap-
peal is over,” she said.

Paramount OK’s Skydance merger

point for the Redstones, who
were seeking to fortify para-
mount for the long-term.
In recent years, paramount
has become the poster child of
a traditional media industry
that has been limping along in
the shadows of streaming giant
Netflix and tech companies
such as Amazon, which have
plenty of cash to spend on their
media bets. paramount has
tried to replace its fading cable
tV enterprise with streaming
b u s i n e s s e s s u c h a s pa ra -
mount+, but those efforts are
still nowhere near as profitable
as traditional tV operations.
the full value of the merger
was not immediately clear be-
cause the deal is complex. Sky-
dance and its financial backers
would acquire National Amuse-
ments, a company that holds
the Redstone family’s voting
stock in paramount, for rough-
ly $1.75 billion. National
Amusements, based in Nor-
wood, also owns Showcase cin-
emas.
In a d d i t i o n , pa ra m o u n t
would merge with Skydance,
leaving the studio and its back-
ers in charge of a media empire
that includes film, t V, and
news properties.
paramount’s market capital-
ization — the value the stock
market places on the company
— is about $8.2 billion. Sky-
dance’s last disclosed valuation
was more than $4 billion.
A tender offer from Sky-
dance will allow many holders
of paramount’s nonvoting stock
to cash out at roughly $15 per
share. Investors who own vot-
ing stock will be able to sell at
$23 per share. this will allow
investors who feel short-
changed by the Skydance deal
— there are many — to get rid
of the company’s stock at a pre-
mium to its current price of
$11.81.
the merger with Skydance
closes a chapter for Redstone,
70, who took over from her fa-
ther, Sumner, and fought to
keep the family media empire
intact.
Skydance’s takeover of para-
mount has been a drama wor-
thy of a summer blockbuster.
Since the beginning of the year,
Redstone, paramount and Elli-
son have been engaged in semi-
public negotiations that fre-
quently leaked to the press and
curdled the goodwill on both
sides.
Executives appeared to be
close to a deal last month. But
At White House, debate on a plan to target Russia oil
By Jim Tankersley

NEW YORK tImES
WASHINGtON — Officials
in president Biden’s treasury
Department have proposed new
actions aimed at crippling a
fleet of aging oil tankers that are
helping deliver Russian oil to
buyers around the world in defi-
ance of Western sanctions.
their effort is aimed at pun-
ishing Russia but it has stalled
amid White House concerns
over how it would affect energy
prices before the November
election.

of money needed to continue
fighting its war in Ukraine, the

the renegotiated terms reduced
the value of Redstone’s control-
ling stake. Just as a special
c o m m i tt e e o f pa ra m o u n t ’s
board was preparing to make it
official, her lawyers emailed
them to kill the deal, saying
they couldn’t agree on “noneco-
nomic terms.”
With the deal on ice, other
suitors emerged to court Red-
stone, including billionaire
Barry Diller and Steven paul, a
producer best known for the
“Baby Geniuses” movie fran-
chise. But the Skydance deal
came back last week, with Sky-
dance improving its offer for
Redstone’s stake and offering
firmer protections against liti-
gation.
those provisions may help
reduce the challenge posed by
investors who have opposed the
deals with Skydance, saying
they would enrich Redstone at
the expense of other sharehold-
ers. All the Skydance merger

have guaranteed her an extra
payout in exchange for her vot-
ing clout — typically called a
control premium — which
some shareholders have argued
is unfair. A small number have
threatened to sue.
the merger comes at a pre-
carious time for paramount. Its
flagship streaming service, par-
amount+, is hemorrhaging
hundreds of millions of dollars
in cash annually. After clashing
with Redstone, its cEO, Bob
Bakish, was replaced by three
executives, who run an “office
of the cEO” — an awkward,
temporary fix. And its cable
business is in long-term de-
cline, causing its stock to slide
more than 70 percent over the
past five years.
In the past month, para-
United States and its allies have
imposed penalties and taken
other novel steps to limit how
much moscow earns from sell-
ing oil abroad. But Russia has
increasingly found ways around
those limits, raising pressure on
the Biden administration to
tighten its enforcement efforts.
treasury officials want to tar-
get a so-called shadow fleet of
oil tankers allowing Russia to
sell oil above a $60-per-barrel
price cap that the United States
and its allies imposed in 2022.
that cap was intended to re-
strict moscow’s ability to profit
from its energy exports while al-
lowing its oil to continue flow-

mount’s three cEOs have pro-
posed a plan they say will help
get paramount back on track
that includes cutting $500 mil-
lion in costs and selling off
parts of the company that ar-
en’t central to its strategy. Loss-
es are beginning to slow at par-
amount+, and the company is
exploring a potential joint ven-
ture with other firms that could
reduce costs further.
the man who will take con-
trol of the flagging company is
a Hollywood producer who has

ter dropping out of the Univer-
sity of Southern california to
try his hand at acting, Ellison
began to finance films, found-
ing Skydance in 2010. the com-
pany has produced some of its
most successful movies with
paramount, including “ top
Gun: maverick” and “mission:
Impossible — Dead Reckoning
part One.”
Ellison, 41, is planning to
bring his own cast into para-
mount. Jeff Shell, a former cEO
of NBcUniversal, has been in
discussions to take a major
role, two people familiar with
the matter said. He was fired
from NBcUniversal last year af-
ter an anchor at cNBc lodged a
sexual harassment complaint
against him. Late last year, he
joined RedBird capital part-
ners, a Skydance backer, as its
chair of sports and media.
Bakish, 60, remains an ad-
viser to paramount. His exit
agreement, filed in may, says he
will continue to work for the
company through October with
a monthly salary of $258,333
and benefits. His exit package
also includes a two-year non-
disparagement agreement.
Although Ellison hasn’t spo-
ken publicly about his plans for
paramount, he has briefed its
board on his intentions, two
people familiar with the matter
said. Ellison has discussed the
possibility of teaming up with
one or more of paramount’s ri-
vals on a combined streaming
service. He also plans to turbo-
charge the company’s technolo-
gy, adding better personaliza-
tion features to its streaming
service.
Another pillar of Skydance’s
plans for paramount is cost cut-

But Russia has largely circum-
vented the cap, allowing it to
reap huge profits to fund its war
efforts.
While treasury officials want
to knock Russian tankers out of
commission, economic advisers
inside the White House worry
that would risk inflaming oil
prices this summer and push up
US gasoline prices, which could
hurt Biden’s reelection cam-

For some couples,
moving in together
early saves on rent
By Melissa Rohman
NEW YORK tImES
For caroline Li and colin Wang,
moving in together after dating for
eight months was a matter of seren-
dipity and urgency.
Last fall, Wang, 28, was complet-
ing his final year of medical school at
the University of california, Los Ange-
les, when he learned that the two-bed-
room apartment he shared with one
roommate had a mold infestation. He
had to move out immediately, but had
trouble finding new housing.
“It was very difficult to find some-
thing that was pretty close to campus
that was reasonable in price, and it
was also in the middle of the school
year,” said Wang, who had reached
UcLA’s three-year limit on student
housing, which allowed him to pay
$1,425 per month in rent instead of
the market rate of $2,000 or more.
At the same time, Li, 24, a regis-
tered nurse, learned that one of her
two roommates was moving out of
In recent years, their $5,000-a-month, three-bedroom

of streaming “I think the plan was always for co-
giant Netflix lin and I to move in once he completed
and tech his residency, not once he graduated
companies such medical school,” Li said. “But I guess
as Amazon. the opportunity presented itself earli-
er, and we were able to keep this
apartment and save some money
while doing it.”
Li and Wang are among the many
young couples who are choosing to
move in together early in their rela-
tionships to save money on housing
and living costs. Faced with a low in-
ventory of affordable housing, steep
competition among buyers and rent-
ers, a slow decline in rent prices, and
climbing mortgage rates, young peo-
ple across the country are being
pushed into finding creative ways to
afford housing.
“Younger generations are really
having to look for ways to be thrifty
and bring their housing costs down,
especially in big cities where rents are
still really high and home prices are
really high,” said Hannah Jones, a se-
nior economic research analyst for Re-
altor.com.
According to a recent survey from
Realtor.com, 80 percent of Gen Z re-
spondents and 76 percent of millenni-
al respondents who have moved in

or logistics, or both, had contributed
to their decision.
While splitting the cost of rent has
its benefits, moving in together early
on in a relationship can cause issues if
a couple don’t already have a good un-
derstanding of each other’s communi-
cation styles and conflict-resolution
skills, said Nicolle Osequeda, a li-
censed marriage and family therapist
in chicago.
“If there are significant differences
and there isn’t a foundation around
how we talk about difficult things, be
it finances or anything else, then it can
exacerbate some of those stresses that
you would already feel,” said Oseque-
da, who specializes in working with
young adults and young couples
through life transitions.
After seven months of dating, Kait-
lin cadagin, 26, and her 28-year-old
boyfriend moved into a one-bedroom
apartment in a high-rise in downtown
chicago.
their apartment cost $2,400 a
month in rent and offered a number of
amenities, including a dog run, a con-
ference room and in-unit laundry. the
couple decided to split their rent
based on their incomes: cadagin, an
events manager, paid $1,000 per
month, and her boyfriend, a licensed
attorney, paid the remaining $1,400.
“I came into it saying, ‘I can afford
$1,000 as my portion of the rent,’” said
cadagin, who was previously renting a
two-bedroom apartment with a room-
mate in another area of chicago
where they each paid $900 per month.
When her roommate decided to
move out, cadagin said, she and her
boyfriend concluded that moving in
together would be more cost efficient
for cadagin than if she rented an
apartment on her own. cadagin said
she could afford to live alone, but pre-
ferred to save money by living with
someone else.
“I’ve started looking at master’s
programs this year, so finances are al-
ways on my mind,” she said.
When paying for utilities and gro-
ceries, the couple split the cost evenly.
Keeping tabs on their shared finances,
however, hasn’t always been perfect,
cadagin said.
“He’s very on top of his finances,
and I sometimes am not,” she said.
cadagin’s boyfriend, who asked
not to be named for privacy reasons,
said that although they hadn’t done a
good job of setting financial expecta-
tions before moving in together, they
had learned how to do a better job at
setting financial goals together and
had become a stronger couple.

As ‘Bachelor’ race issues linger, show’s first
Asian American lead is ready for her moment
By Terry Tang
AssOciAted Press
Jenn tran can’t stop thinking
about being the first Asian
American lead in the history of
“the Bachelor” franchise — not
that she wants to.
“i think about it every day, all
the time. i think if i pushed it
aside, that would be such a dis-
honor to me in who i am be-
cause being Asian American,
that’s me,” the 26-year-old aspir-
ing physician assistant says.
A vie tnamese American
woman reigning over Bachelor
Nation marks a significant mo-
ment for the reality tv dating
behemoth. Historically, fewer
roses on “the Bachelor” and
“the Bachelorette” have gone to
contestants of color. the roses
that were handed out often
came with plenty of thorns, in-
cluding racist social media com-
mentary.
tran’s season doesn’t debut
on ABc until Monday, but it’s al-
ready received some criticism
for having few suitors of Asian
descent. still, tran — who made
it to the final six in the last
“Bachelor” season starring Joey
Graziadei — is embracing her
unconventional search for love
as an opportunity to share her
bicultural upbringing.
“My mom and i speak a lot of
vietnamese together. And i can’t
wait for people to see that. that’s
not something that people have
seen before,” tran says.
“the Bachelor” has been a
mixed bag when it comes to
showcasing Asian cultures. in
2019, “Bachelor” lead colton
Underwood went on a group
date over singaporean street
food. the mostly white contes-
tants made gagging noises and
colton, who is also white, made
a toast “to weird food.” the out-
ing drew some backlash.
tran, whose season has al-
ready completed filming, as-
sures that the show has handled
her vietnamese identity respect-

ABC’s “The Bachelor.”
fully.
“there is a small scene in the
beginning in my intro package
where i talk to my family about
leaving as a bachelorette and
there they cooked a big, big viet-
namese meal,” tran says. “i hope
... i’m exposing people to some-
thing that’s different than them.
And so that can incite change
and that can incite acceptance
into people.”
Non-white contestants and
leads, including Black trailblaz-
ers rachel Lindsay and Matt
James, have historically been
met with hostility from the ma-
jority-white Bachelor Nation au-
dience. Longtime host chris
Harrison left the franchise in
2021, under fire over his han-
dling of a racism controversy in
an interview with Lindsay. ra-
chel Nance, who is Filipino and
Black and outlasted tran on Gra-
ziadei’s season, tearfully re-
counted in March getting “hun-
dreds” of dMs and comments
using racial slurs for both Black
and Asian people. (some viewers
were disappointed that host Jes-
se Palmer did not call it racism
but instead asked viewers to
temper their “strong opinions.”)
tran hasn't been immune to
the same treatment. she gets
racist comments “every day” on
instagram and tiktok, she says.
Her approach is to simply ignore
it, though it isn't easy.
“social media is like this plat-
form for all these people just
come at me all at once and it’s a
new feeling. it’s overwhelming.
And unfortunately, that’s the
world that we live in right now,”
tran says. “i hope that people
are more open-minded and that
they open their hearts up to this
truly.”
tran's star turn has definitely
piqued the interest of Asian
Americans who don't typically
watch “Bachelor” programming,
however. the star herself says
her mother has only watched
vietnamese reality tv shows.
tran isn't sure how her parent
will react to whatever makes it
to air — but her mother wasn't
shy during filming, which tran
thinks will make for good tv.
“there are some concerns
and things that she brought up
because of our vietnamese cul-
ture. so that’s something that
i’m excited for people to learn
about,” tran says. “she really
was just trying to wrap her head
around it all.”
Only a few of the 25 men vy-
ing for her affections appear to
be of Asian descent, and only
one is vietnamese American.
the franchise’s dearth of Asian
men has been an ongoing gripe:
the “Bachelor” universe, which
debuted in 2002, didn’t have an
Asian contestant until the 2016
season of “the Bachelorette.”
in a wide-ranging interview
last month with the Los Angeles
times, the showrunners who
took over from creator Mike
Fleiss last year addressed the
franchise’s troubling history
with race.
they acknowledged falling
short in responding to concerns
of the few non-white leads and
online bullying, and acknowl-
edged tran should have had
more Asian suitors.
Aunt banished to the
cousins table at wedding
Q. About five years ago, my sister’s son was mar-
ried. When we arrived at the wedding, the bride
and groom had set up three special tables. One
was for the bride’s parents and their siblings and
children, a smaller family. the other two were for
the groom’s parents and their siblings and chil-
dren. imagine my shock and surprise when all of
my siblings and nieces and nephews were sitting
at the two tables for the groom’s family, and i was
seated at a different table with our cousins. in
my place at the sibling table was one of our cous-
ins.
so, i spent the wedding sitting with my cous-
ins, and one cousin sat at the table with my
daughter and sister and my sister’s kids. i was
shocked and hurt, and have never received an ex-
planation from the bride and groom for this ex-
tremely hurtful slight.
At this point, i have never discussed it with
them. i found out my sister-in-law discussed it
with them about a year ago. so, they know i’m
very hurt by this slight, and neither have said
anything to me about it.
do i bring it up to them at this point? it still
hurts my heart when i think about it, and once
and for all, i would like to understand why they
would do that to me and my husband.

A. it’s amazing how much turmoil a name card
on top of a plate at a family wedding can cause.
i’m certain that thousands of years in the future,
we’ll still be sorting out seating arrangement
strife. (Well, we won’t, but various proprietary Ai
bots will be squabbling about it in perpetuity.)
even the happiest weddings can lead to stress-
ful moments for all involved. And the seating as-
signments sometimes call to mind that age-old
determinant of social standing: the cafeteria ta-
ble.
When we don’t get placed where we think we
ought to get placed, it can hurt or confuse, as it
has with you. But, you weren’t banished to the
corner table of the proverbial cafeteria. You were
still with family.
it could have simply been a matter of physical
logistics — you and your husband were a party of
two and it sounds like your cousin was a party of
one. Maybe there was only space for an addition-
al member at the big tables and the bride and
groom thought you’d enjoy catching up with
cousins. Maybe the name cards were mistakenly
switched.
You can certainly clarify this point with your
nephew, but i think everyone, yourself included,
will be happier if you let it go.
they should have reached out when they
found out you were hurt by the seating. it was
impolite and caused more harm, but you have an
opportunity to release yourself from this now. it’s
been five years and, from your letter, it doesn’t
sound like there are larger conflicts between your
house and theirs.
i grant you this: it’s a little weird to not be at a
table with all of your other siblings. However,
weddings are weird — we all had to choose our
dinner option months earlier like psychics, a dJ
is telling us when we’re allowed to dance like it’s
the “Footloose” town, and sometimes cake is
smashed in faces.
decide to let the weirdness stay in the past.
Q. We’re hoping you can advise on which would
be the best behavior during bridal/baby/etc.
shower games, when i am (humbly) very good at
winning everything.
While some of these fun competitions are
chance, many require knowledge and skill, and i
could take all the prizes, but after winning the
first round, i defer my next win to someone else,
and let them take the loot, honor, and glory.
sometimes, i busy myself with helping the host-
ess, and avoid playing altogether.
My girls, and sister, are divided on the issue.
some say set the bar high, and don’t hide my
skills. Others think that i should just let the oth-
ers have the fun.
What do you think?
GOLd MedAL BABY BiNGO
A. ABBA may have crooned “the winner takes it
all,” but in the immortal words of Kenny rogers
in “the Gambler,” “You’ve got to know when to
hold ’em, know when to fold ’em, know when to
walk away, and know when to run.”
if there were showcase showdown-style priz-
es being given out at these showers, i’d say run
up the score. Go home triumphant! But no-stakes
fun-and-games stops being fun when no one else
has a chance to win.
i think your strategy for self-selecting out of
game play is right (and generous) here. Knowing
that you can take it all is prize enough, anyway.
You and i (and Kenny rogers) will always know
who the real winner is.
