Known as the “Frances Perkins Workplace Equity Act,” after the fi rst woman to serve as U.S. Labor Secretary, this legislation requires employers with 25 or more employees to disclose a salary range when posting an open position and protects an employee’s right to ask their employer for the salary range for a position when applying for a job or seeking a promotion. The bill also requires employers with more than 100 employees to share their federal wage and workforce data reports with the state’s Executive Offi ce of Labor and Workforce Development, which would then be responsible for compiling and publishing aggregated wage and workforce data to help identify gender and racial wage gaps by industry. After the Mass. House and Senate enacted the bill on July 24, 2024, it was signed into law by Governor Maura Healey on July 31, 2024, as Chapter 141 of the Acts of 2024. “The passage of this important legislation continues our er employees, while fi ghting the racial and gender pay gaps that persist throughout the Commonwealth.” “This legislation is a step forJason Lewis State Senator Steven Ultrino State Representative ward in ensuring equal pay and closing wage gaps, especially for women and people of color who face persistent workplace inequality,” said Representative Ultrino. “With this crucial piece of legislation, we will continue to strengthen the future of the Commonwealth by empowering our workers.” “I was proud to join the full legislature in supporting the Francis Perkins Workplace Equity Act, not only to close gender and racial wage gaps, but to empower workers broadly across the Commonwealth,” said Representative Lipper-Garabedian. “Greater pay transparency is a tool for correcting gender and racial wage disparities. Salary information further empowers all Paul Donato State Representative commitment to closing wage gaps for women and people of color in Massachusetts,” said Senator Lewis. “Improving salary transparency has been proven to reduce pay disparities and improve pay equity.” “This important piece of legKate Lipper-Garabedian State Representative islation is critical in ensuring a competitive and equitable workplace for all in Massachusetts,” said Representative Donato. “Additionally, I am proud of my House colleagues for overwhelmingly passing this bipartisan legislation to help empowMalden residents celebrate a Platinum Anniversary!

It builds upon the Legislature’s 2016 passage of the Massachusetts Equal Pay Act, which prohibited wage discrimination based on gender and brought long-sought fairness and equality to workplaces in the state. In Greater Boston, the 2023 gender wage gap was 21 cents, according to the Boston Women’s Workforce Council. This gap becomes more pronounced when comparing white men and women of color: Black women face a 54-cent wage gap and Hispanic women face a 52cent wage gap.

He gave the following description of Charlestown: “On the north side of Charles River is Charles Towne... At this town there is kept a ferryboat to convey passengers over Charles River, which between the two towns is a quarter of a mile over, being a very deep channel. Here may ride forty ships at a time. Up higher, it is a broad bay, being above two miles between the shores, into which runs stony-river and muddy-river. Towards the south-west in the middle of this bay is a great oyster bank.” Captain Edward Johnson (1598–1672), also shared his view of Charlestown in his “Wonder-Working Providence of Sion’s Savior in New England, 1628–1651” (published in 1654): “The form of this Town ... is like the Head, Neck and Shoulders of a Man, only the pleasant and Navigable River of Mistick runs through the right shoulder thereof, and by its near approach to Charles River in one place makes a very narrow neck, by which means the chief part of the Town, whereon the most building stands, becomes a Peninsula: it hath a large Market-place near the water side built round with Houses, comely and faire, forth of which there issues two streets orderly built with some very faire Houses, beautified with pleasant Gardens and Orchards, the whole Towne consists in its extent of about 150 dwelling Houses.” Since the very beginning, the colonists created rules regarding the land’s division. In 1629, it Matthew Cradock (1585-1641) was agreed that each inhabitant should have two acres for planting ground and to fence in common. In 1630, each “dwelling within the Neck” should have “two acres of land for a house plot and two acres for every male that is able to plant.” According to the Massachusetts Bay Company, each person who arrived to the colony at his own cost “was entitled to fifty acres; each adventurer of fifty pounds in the common stock, to two hundred acres, or in this proportion; those who brought over servants were allowed fifty acres for each, and grants were made, also, in consideration of eminent service rendered the Colony.” Following those rules, large parcels of land were granted to such prominent people as John Winthrop, Increase Nowell, John Wilson and Matthew Cradock by the General Court before the bounds of the town were established. John Winthrop (1588–1649), an English Puritan lawyer and cofounder of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, was the governor of the colony since October 1629 and led a group of few hundred people to the colony in April 1630 (Winthrop Fleet). He received 600 acres along the southern bank of the Mystic River, where he built his summer residence called “Ten Hills Farm” (now Medford and Somerville). His winter house was located in Boston. In 1632, Winthrop received an island in Boston Harbor (the “Governor’s Island”). In 1638, he got 1,200 acres of land along the Shawsheen River (now Billerica and Concord).

They were very good friends and Mr. Conway was always great to me and my family. “So, from watching Celtics games on TV, you could see the ball boys dressed in those green Celtic jackets and white pants. My parents got me one of those jackets for Christmas the year before. So, I had the jacket and a pair of white painters’ pants and looked just like a ball boy. So, I wore that to Game 5 and fi gured I’d give it a shot to get on the fl oor. And I did!! My father got the biggest kick out of it. One of the real ball boys obviously knew I wasn’t real, but he was awesome, and let me sit with him right under the hoop for all of Game 5, giving my father a wave every so often. “So, the real ball boy told me the time and entrance the ball boys went to the Garden to get in. So those Finals games started at 9, he told me they got there around 3 hours before game time, and they entered through the bank on Causeway St. I took the train in and got to the Garden about 5:30, and the real ball boy came walking down the street around 15 min later. He started laughing when he saw me, but was like ‘let’s go for it’ and I followed him into the bank where the security guard at the desk asked, ‘who’s this?’ He just said he’s a playoff ball boy. I think the security guard knew it was BS but had kind of a smirk and said yea ok, go ahead. “I walked about 20 feet down a hallway and took an elevator up to the Garden level...it was actually pretty eerie, because it was 3 hours before tipoff and there was nobody in the Garden except for the beer and food vendors setting up and some ushers and workers milling around. So, I got on a pay phone to call home to tell my mother and father it worked, and to look for me on TV. “Anyway, the court was empty, and the kid said we could shoot around for half hour or so before players started arriving...I was in heaven. So, there I was shooting hoops on the famous parquet before a Celtics-Lakers Game 7, I’m thinking to myself, it doesn’t get much better than that! Then a guy came over to shoot with me making small talk and asking where I was from and so forth - it was [The Boston Globe’s] Dan Shaughnessy. So, I told him what I was up to and how I got in, he loved it, he got a big kick out of it. Then the real ball boy told me stay down the Lakers end, cause the equipment manager for the Celts, Wayne LeBeaux, was the one who ran the ball boys, and it would be better if I didn’t get close to him because he was a real (expletive deleted – LOL). “The buses arrived, and players started coming out to warm up. I was rebounding for the Lakers, throwing balls back to Kareem, Magic, Worthy and all of them. It was pretty (expletive deleted) cool. I stayed right under the hoop again for the whole game, and as the clock ticked down, the Celtics just needed to hit some free throws at the last minute, and they would win. The kid tells me to go over to the Lakers bench, and when the game ends, just follow the players down the tunnel to the locker rooms. “Well, what I couldn’t prepare Mid-grade Regular $3.78 3.05 67 54 Over 45 Years of Excellence! Full Service $2.99 Order online at angelosoil.com myself for was the crowd was ready to explode and was ready to surge the court. It was actually pretty scary and intimidating so with like 10 seconds left I got behind Kurt Rambis and got ready to follow him to the locker rooms. The game ended and it was instant chaos, just pure craziness. People were screaming at Lakers, trying to grab stuff from them, swearing, spitting, it was bedlam. I grabbed the back of Rambis warm up jacket to stay close, and he whirled around ready to punch someCelts win! Gerald Henderson with ball, Timmy Carey with Celt’s jacket and raised hands one, he looked down and saw me and assumed I was ball boy and just said to me ‘follow me in!’ Just as we took the right to go down the tunnel, some guy jumps in front of Rambis swearing F this and F that and tried grabbing him and Rambis hit this guy with a right that knocked him out, I’ll never ever forget that sound it made - like someone smashing a watermelon on a sidewalk. “We came down the tunnel and the picture you see of me is Gerald Henderson right in front of me screaming ‘I got the ball’ and there was the CBS camera guy right there with the red light on. That picture is a still shot from the live CBS telecast, and I followed Gerald Henderson right into the locker room. It was awesome! People were celebrating and champagne was fl ying, and I was right in the middle of it. I remember talking to [Boston Mayor] Ray Flynn in the locker room and Marvin Hagler came walking right by me (much shorter than I could have ever imagined). “So, I spent couple hours in the locker room. It was unbelievable and I wish cell phones were around then; I would have had amazing pics! But memories are good enough for me (and this article). I hit the Orange Line towards Malden, got home around 2 am (mom and pop were not thrilled - LOL) - they made me go to school next day!!” Timmy Carey Postscript: “Dan Shaughnessy wrote a little something about me in the Globe the next day, so that was pretty cool. He couldn’t have been any nicer about the whole thing. 40 years! Amazing how fast time goes, and I did see years later that the guy Rambis knocked out, sued him (LOL). He should have got in touch with me, we could have compared notes from that day, cause that was something I’ll never forget (LOL).” As Peter Falk’s iconic TV character Columbo would say, “Just one more thing, sir” – for those that don’t know the legend that is Timothy Carey, let me give you the Cliff Notes version on a kid I have called friend for over 40 years (yikes!). TC grew up on Naomi Street a stone’s throw from Malden’s Mr. Basketball, Cliff Cioffi. Timmy reminisced how his absolute two favorite park instructors were, Danny “Mr. Amerige Park” Meyers and Betsy (Class of ’75) Hanifan! Timmy says, “they were great to me down Amerige and mentored me as a kid.” TC’s dad grew up at 313 Highland Avenue between the Cavanaughs, Bradys and Grimeses. Timmy grew up “listening to all the great Edgeworth stories” handed down to him about his dad’s childhood – never boring according to TC! The last surviving family member (his dad’s sister Gert) lived at 313 Highland Ave. from 1921 until she passed away in November 2023 at age 102. Gert was proud of being the longest tenured employee at Malden Hospital (purchasing – 55 years) from 1940 until 1995. Simply amazing, Tim. His dad was an outstanding high school athlete graduating M.H.S. in 1949 starting at tailback on the 1948 M.H.S. Gator Bowl–winning team that defeated Robert E. Lee High School out of Florida (my note: yikes!). Timmy graduated in 1985 and lives the quiet and peaceful life of a gentleman farmer these days in Boxborough with the loves of his life, wife Andrea and son Eduardo. Timmy tells me, “Things couldn’t be better, Peter.” He also told me he enjoyed my article on “Malden 1985.” He told me that was also a good year for him. He was classmates with sports studs Bobby McVicar, Guy Prescott, Johnny DeBenedictis and Danny Valeri, but Timmy was awarded “Top Male Athlete” for 1985.

Combined, Donato eked out the win. In Mossalam’s first attempt at the office in 2020, she still finished by just a 55-41 percent margin. Donato has served for some 40 years total as a local and state legislator – also serving for a number of terms as a Medford City Councilor in the 1980s and early 1990s, as well as two terms as Mayor of Medford under the former Plan E/Town Manager form of government there in the 1980s. For a number of years, he held lofty posts in the Mass. House leadership under several House Speakers. Just 21 percent of the 35th Middlesex voters in Malden cast ballots in 2022. Primary Day being the day after a major holiday weekend – Labor Day – most certainly will not aid the turnout numbers, either locally or tember 3, with no classes for students. Students return to classes on Wednesday, September 4. Malden first-year Superintendent of School Dr. Timothy Sippel was joined by Malden Mayor and School Committee chairperson Gary Christenson on Wednesday morning to greet students at all of the Malden schools.

I did my first pastoral internship 17 years ago at First Congregational and was impressed by the tight knit spirit of the city.” Chris immediately embraced life at the Highlands Church starting with Easter, the annual Melrose Beer + Bites fundraiser, the Blessing of the Animals, hiking in the Fells, and Sunday School programs. “There’s so much happening in this church and a willingness to try new things and to reach out to people of all ages and from all walks of life. It’s fantastic to step into such a dynamic community!” After growing up in Vermont and New Hampshire and going to college in Florida, Pastor Chris returned to New England to earn a Master of Divinity from Andover Newton Theological School. Since then, Chris has had a wide variety of experience in different church settings, including intentional interim ministry, church planting, Christian Education, youth ministry, and camp ministries. He is particularly invested in faith development and helping individuals and communities find their connection to the Spirit. Chris feels most connected to the Spirit in the outdoors and spends his free time hiking, dabbling in photography and (very noncompetitively) running. He also enjoys music, playing the guitar and building electric guitars from parts. Chris lives in Arlington with his wife, Leah, who is also a minister, and their two children. He’s excited to jump into a new church year at MHCC. Many beloved church traditions and activities will return throughout the upcoming year: the Fall Fair; the Thanksgiving ingathering service; an all-included, no rehearsal pageant; Christmas Eve candlelight service; birthday cake Sunday; middle school and senior youth group events; and more. This fall, Pastor Chris will lead a five-week adult study series on “Images of Pastor Chris Lyman Waldron blesses stuffed animals at the Blessing of the Animals at MHCC in June. (Photo courtesy of Michelle Tallman) God,” featuring different ways of looking at God through art, stories, poems and scripture. Pastor Chris also plans to continue newer traditions of movie nights and “Messy Church” with arts and crafts for younger children. “Churches are one of the rare places in our society where people can come together across generations. The Highlands Church has been a place Pastor Chris Lyman Waldron blesses a pet at the Blessing of the Animals at MHCC in June. (Photo courtesy of Michelle Tallman) where kids can feel that they are able to participate, and we’re looking to build on that in the coming year.” The first Sunday of every month will feature an all-ages intergenerational service with communion and moments for kids to participate in the service. Regular worship resumes on September 8 at 10 a.m. with a welcome back intergenerational service; Sunday school begins on September 15. The church offers childcare each Sunday for preschool children and younger. All are welcome to visit MHCC on welcome back Sunday or any other day of worship to learn about the church’s community. The “Images of God” series takes place on Sundays after the worship service starting on September 22. Located at 355 Franklin St. in Melrose, MHCC is an Open and Affirming congregation that seeks to extend God’s love into the world. It welcomes all persons, including those of all races, ethnicities, ages, sexual orientations, gender identities and expressions, family structures, faith backgrounds, abilities and economic circumstances, into the full life and ministry of the church. Visitors will find the church strives “to ‘Love our Neighbor’ by building caring community, connection, and acceptance,” and “by sharing God’s love, nurturing youth, and serving those in need,” as the mission statement notes. To learn more about the church, visit its website at www.mhcc-ucc.org or its Facebook page at www.facebook.com/MelroseHighlands or visit in person on an upcoming Sunday.

DCR to encourage ourselves, and our fellow residents, to “Be Kind!” in the Fells this fall. Stewardship, or the careful and responsible management of something entrusted to one’s care, is a practice that everyone can be a part of. Our friends at DCR have a few easy tips to follow that make it simple to Be Kind! ○ Listen for other people on trails and make space for others to pass; The Middlesex Fells (Courtesy photo) ○ Keep dogs leashed outside of designated off-leash areas; ○ Leave no trace of litter or waste; and ○ Stay on the trails – on foot, paw or bike. Be on the lookout for more information about this campaign from official city and town social media, and don’t be afraid to get involved! With #BeKindMA or #SeAmableMA, it’s easier than ever to share with others how easy it is to brighten someone’s day with kindness. You can also volunteer to be a Trail Adopter, attend an official Be Kind event or learn more at https://www.mass.gov/guides/ be-kind-massachusetts It’s no secret that a little kindness can go a long way. We’re lucky to be the leaders of cities and towns known for their deep community roots and friendly neighbors. It’s our hope that no matter where our residents roam, they take that signature welcoming attitude with them. We are proud to be ambassadors along with the Department of Conservation and Recreation’s new campaign that encourages us to “Be Kind!” when out in nature.

He acted on the company’s behalf in London. He had 18 ships and conducted trade with the West Indies, North America, Europe and the Near East. Cradock got very large land lots (200 acres for every 50 pounds invested) that included nearly all modern Medford (where was located the first shipyard). He also owned land in Marblehead, Ipswich, Agawam and Kennebunk. Four hundred acres of land near the west side of the North River, “Three Myle Brooke,” were granted to two outstanding residents. One was Rev. John Wilson (1588/91–1667), minister of the First Church of Boston (in 1630–67) and an ardent Puritan (known for his role in the trials of Anne Hutchinson and Mary Dyer). Another one was Increase Nowell (1590–1655), colonial administrator, patentee of the Massachusetts Bay Company, one of the founders of Charlestown and the first ruling elder of its First Church. “The Nowell grant, which was situated north of the Wilson lands, covered the present Edgeworth ward and extended out upon the Medford plain to the Cradock farm. The grants of Wilson and Nowell, forming a part of Charlestown on Mystic Side, separated Malden and Medford until 1726, when they were annexed to the former town.” (Deloraine Pendre Corey, “The History of Malden, Massachusetts: 1633-1785” 1899) In 1633, the territory between Island End River and North River was granted to the town of Charlestown, and the next year an allotment in five-acre lots of land was made to the several inhabitants of Mystic Side (now Malden) and Mystic Field (now Medford). “In 1634, each inhabitant had ten acres of land allotted to him at ‘Mistick Side,’” but in 1635, “twenty-nine ‘willingly relinquished’ five acres of their ten acre lots ‘for the good of the town’ – ‘that it might supply new comers.’” In 1635, the lines between Charlestown and Boston “ran from ‘one marked tree’ to another; from ‘the creek in the creek upward’ to ‘a little neck of land’; from ‘a tall pine upon a point of rock’ to ‘the other side of Rumney Marsh’; and ‘from outside to outside by a strait [sic] line.’” According to the agreement of 1636, “the bounds... on the north-east side of the Mistick river, shall run from the marked tree upon the rocky hill above Rumney Marsh near the written tree no: no: west upon a straight line by a meridian compass up into the country.” On March 3, 1636, it was decided that “Charlestown bounds shall run eight miles into the country, from their meeting-house, if not other bounds intercept, reserving the propriety of farms, granted to John Winthrop, Esq., Mr. Nowell, Mr. Cradock, and Mr. Wilson, to the owners thereof, as also free ingress and egress for the servants and cattle of the said gentlemen, and common for their cattle, on the back side of Mr. Cradock’s farm.” After determination of the towns’ boundaries, lands were divided by their inhabitants according to the decisions of the town meetings. The special committees of the seven men usually surveyed and numbered the lots that were later given to ing for this item.” (A “Yes” vote is for the $7.5 milBeacon Hill Roll Call By Bob Katzen GET A FREE SUBSCRIPTION TO MASSTERLIST – Join more than 22,000 people, from movers and shakers to political junkies and interested citizens, who start their weekday morning with MASSterList—the popular newsletter that chronicles news and informed analysis about what’s going on up on Beacon Hill, in Massachusetts politics, policy, media and influence.

Healey’s veto of $650,000 (reducing funding from $1.5 million to $850,000) for loans to small businesses. The Senate did not act on the veto so the veto stands and the $650,000 was eliminated. “I am reducing this item to the amount projected to be necessary due to the availability of alternative resources,” said Gov. Healey in her veto message. “This operating funding overlaps with alternative capital funding in the fiscal year 2025 Capital Investment Plan intended to support this purpose. Specifically, capital grants for Community Development Financial Institutions will be utilized to complement this funding in support of small businesses and microbusinesses.” (A “Yes” vote is for the $650,000.

Healey’s veto of $7.5 million (reducing funding from $10 million to $2.5 million) for programs to encourage graduates of the state’s public colleges to work as public school teachers. The Senate did not act on the veto so the veto stands and the $7.5 million was eliminated. “I am reducing this item to the amount projected to be necessary,” said Gov. Healey in her veto message. “The amount as adjusted here, in combination with the available balance from fiscal year 2024, is sufficient to meet projected demand and result in no reduction to fiscal year 2025 spendlion.

The program would also prepare students for required assessments and college placement tests in middle school and high school. The Senate did not act on the veto so the veto stands and the $875,000 was eliminated. “I am vetoing this item because it is not consistent with my House [budget] recommendation,” said Gov. Healey in her veto message. (A “Yes” vote is for the $875,000. A “No” vote is against it.) Rep. Paul Donato Rep. Steven Ultrino Yes Yes ALSO UP ON BEACON HILL MATERNAL HEALTH (H 4999) – Gov. Healey signed into law a maternal health bill that would require certified professional midwives and lactation consultants to be licensed; encourage the creation of more freestanding birth centers; establish a grant program to address maternal mental health and substance use disorder; expand the statewide universal postpartum home visiting program; and mandate that insurers provide coverage for postpartum depression and major depressive disorder screenings for perinatal individuals. “Massachusetts is home to the best health care, but there was work to be done to improve birth options and health equity for families across the state,” said Gov. Healey. “These important expansions in the law will help the inhabitants. The sizes of the land grants were based on the family size, the number of cattle and other livestock, and inhabitant “eminent respect” (those who deserved it due to their descent and usefulness for the colony). Also, the General Court did not allow to build the dwelling house “above the distance of half a mile or a mile at the furthest” from the congregational meeting house. Some residents could own 15 lots, while others owned half a lot; and no one could dispose of his lot until he had built and planted it in town. The lots could be sold only to inhabitants of the town, and the sellers had to “resign up half their ten acre lots on Mistick Side, for the accommodation of such brethren that want.” There were also strict rules regarding the residence. Thus, the potential residents had to have the corresponding credentials, such as church membership, good moral character, or even the obligation to bring wives from abroad. While at that period of time the religious belief meant more than the poverty, later the paupers could not be allowed to settle in the towns. On October 13, 1634, it was ordered “that none be permitted make it both safer and easier to start and grow a family here in Massachusetts, while making sure that women can make the best health care decisions for themselves.” “Massachusetts is renowned for its world-class hospitals and health care facilities, and this legislation builds on that legacy by prioritizing maternal health care needs and providing expanded childbirth options for the commonwealth’s residents,” said House Minority Leader Rep. Brad Jones (R-North Reading).“In addition to creating a formal licensing process for certified professional midwives and lactation consultants, this legislation will offer expectant parents access to a wide range of services to ensure a successful pregnancy and childbirth, including universal postpartum home visits and postpartum depression screenings.” “I am proud that this important legislation will take positive steps toward addressing the disparities in maternal healthcare,” said Sen. Patrick O’Connor (R-Weymouth). “Strengthening access to physical and mental health in Massachusetts will provide a more inclusive support system that keeps parents and children healthy as they embark on their new journey. Every single family in our commonwealth deserves high quality care and support. Not only are we safeguarding the health of new families, but also laying a stronger foundation for future generations.” “These investments are part of our commitment across agencies to eliminate disparities in maternal health care that have led to worse outcomes in some communities and for people of color – especially Black birthing people,” said Health and Human Services Secretary Kate Walsh. “We are taking specific steps in designated communities to support the most disproportionately impacted residents and help provide much needed access to equitable perinatal and postpartum care.” EARLY IN-PERSON VOTING IS OPEN FROM SATURDAY, AUGUST 24 THROUGH FRIDAY, AUGUST 30 -Early [to] sit down and dwell in this town without the consent of the town first obtained.” Since February 21, 1637, the rules became even more strict. It was forbidden abroad to entertain people in the freemen’s houses without the notification of the town meeting and without getting consent of the three selectmen. From April 3, 1638, freemen were not allowed to entertain anybody at their houses without prior notice to the selectmen within 14 days; those who were not freemen had to get consent of six selectmen. The city constable should observe the fulfillment of that rule, and the violators were fined. According to the General Court, people from abroad could not settle in any town without the consent of one member of the council, or two magistrates, under penalty of one hundred pounds.

Under Massachusetts law, all cities and towns in Massachusetts are required to offer early voting. Secretary of State Bill Galvin recommends voters check their city or town’s early voting schedule to find out what days and hours they can vote early. “With the primaries being held on the day after Labor Day, some voters may prefer to vote by mail or to vote early, especially if they have children going back to school that day,” Galvin said. “The early voting period gives you the chance to vote on whichever day you prefer, at your convenience.” Voters who applied to vote by mail, but have not yet returned a ballot can still vote in person, if they wish. Those who have already returned their mailin ballot will be marked off on the voting list and will not be able to vote again. For more information, go to www.

The grants are awarded through the Mosaic Opioid Recovery Partnership, a new grant program designed to support underserved communities and populations that have experienced a high rate of opioid-related overdose deaths. “Too many Massachusetts families have been devastated by the impacts of substance use disorder and we have been doing everything in our power to reduce overdoses and save lives,” said Gov.

But they are indeed wearing full equipment, there are referees on the field and all the players out there are fully authorized to yell, cheer and high-five when their team makes a great play. Let’s start with this: There was a lot of yelling, screaming and high-fiving from the Malden High football sideline Saturday at Macdonald Stadium when the Blue and Gold hosted Winthrop High and Beverly High in a tri-scrimmage. Malden got some good contributions on both sides of the ball from a good mix of veterans and newcomers, scoring numerous times on the ground and in the air, while finally getting to smack players other than those in the same 02148 zip code for the first time this season. “We looked good out there today, there was a lot to like,” said Malden fourth-year Head Coach Witche Exilhomme, a notorious “hard marker.” “We as a staff were looking for certain things: Aggressive blocking from the offensive line, hard running by our backs and quickness to the ball and then finishing off tackles by our defense.” “We got most of that all day long and it was great to see,” said Coach Exilhomme. There was also some stuff no one wants to see, but still a part of the game, especially this early in the season: penalties. Malden got flagged for a ton of penalties on the offensive side, particularly for illegal formations when some of the offensive linemen lined up improperly. “They [referees] kept warning us and throwing flags and we did not adjust. Finally we got the message and were better later [in the scrimmage],” Coach Exilhomme said. “That’s something we have to clean up before we get out there again. There are other spots we have to do a lot better as well, but we will on those, too.” Malden was especially effective with its running game, as the line blocked aggressively, as encouraged, and opened it up for senior captain Mateus Brito, freshman Jayden McGuffie and junior Zachary Johnson. All three runners scored touchdowns and Malden also got some good running yardage from big 6-3, 260 H-back and senior captain Earl Fevrier. Malden also got some offense via the air, with senior captain quarterback Aidan Brett knocking some quick hitters on slants and rollouts. QB2 Billy Gavin, a junior, completed several passes as well, including a 68-yard scoring pass to senior split end Brayan Jose, a perfect dime down the left sidelines. “That was an excellent play and it was between two players who are out for football for the first time this season,” Coach Exilhomme said, referring to Gavin and Jose. Both Gavin and Jose are veteran Varsity Baseball players who contributed to this past spring’s record-setting 16-win season. Defensively, there were plenty of stickouts, including Fevrier, Brito, senior captain Kevin Exilhomme, senior Tony Gedeus and junior Matthew Candelario Da Costa. While Malden scored five times on the day, the Tornado defense pitched a shutout, with neither visiting opponent getting into the end zone. “We have a lot of work to do, but it was good to see us get into the end zone, play some physical defense and display a lot of enthusiasm,” Coach Exilhomme said. “We have a good amount of players who have put in a lot of work since their freshman year for this program, it’s time for them to get paid. That is what we all are working for this year.” *** Final scrimmage for Malden set for tonight at 5:00 vs. BC High at home Malden High football will close out its preseason with a 5:00 p.m. matchup tonight at Macdonald Stadium, when it hosts Boston College High School from the Catholic Conference. This is the third season Malden has matched up with the Eagles. “It’s a good test for us to see where we stand,” Coach Exilhomme said. “They [BC High] always have good size and excellent skill players and we expect it will be the same this year.” For the first time in recent memory, Malden football will be matched against a team coached ALL SET, BRAYAN: Malden High senior Brayan Jose checked his bearings on the line during Saturday’s scrimmage.

QUOTABLE QUOTES “Our audit found that, under priINHERITED IRA REQUIRED MINIMUM DISTRIBUTIONS T he IRS recently fi nalized its regulations on inherited IRA Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs) in July of this year. This area of the tax law has become more and more complicated. The Secure Act involved major tax legislation relating to RMDs when dealing with beneficiaries other than spouses, minor children, benefi ciaries less than 10 years younger than the decedent IRA owner and disabled or chronically ill benefi ciaries, who are referred to as eligible benefi ciaries. The other group of benefi ciaries is referred to as ineligible designated benefi ciaries (i.e. the non-spouse, et al benefi ciaries). An example would be your child. Under the old rule, a child could stretch out the RMDs over his or her life expectancy. This would allow for great tax efficiency as the distributions could be stretched out over 20, 30 or even 40 years. Under the Secure Act, your child is required to deplete the IRA account within 10 years following the year of your death. This is a massive change in tax law. The new regulations now make it clear that if you reached your Required Beginning Date (RBD) at the time of your death, meaning you had already reached the age where you are required to begin taking your RMDs, your child would not only be required to deplete the account by the end of the 10th year following your death, your child would also have to begin taking annual distributions from this IRA account in years 1 through 9, with RMD calculations based upon his or her own life expectancy. This was unclear in the IRS’ previously proposed regulations. In the event you had not reached your RBD and were not required to begin taking your RMDs, your child would not have to take any distributions during years 1 through 9. However, the entire IRA account would have to be completely depleted by the end of the 10th year following the year of your death. It should be noted, that depending on one’s tax position, it may very well be benefi cial to actually withdraw funds from the IRA account ratably over that 10 year period to reduce Uncle Sam’s tax bite allowing you to remain in a lower federal tax bracket. The IRS has waived RMDs with respect to inherited IRA’s for calendar years 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024. However, the RMDs must commence in calendar year 2025. If you inherited an IRA from someone who died in 2020, the account would still have to be depleted by the end of 2030, notwithstanding the fact that RMDs are not required to be taken until 2025. This rule would not apply to surviving spouses and other eligible benefi ciaries. These rules are complicated to say the least. There are diff erent rules applying to estates and conduit Trusts that have been named benefi ciaries of IRA accounts. Joseph D.

Lee A. Kinnon, Chairman Andrew Zeiberg, Member Paul Lee, Member August 30, 2024 ~ LEGAL NOTICE ~ avy eniior avvy S iorn oro a y avvyavy iori by Jim Miller What Are the Early Signs and Symptoms of Diabetes? Dear Savvy Senior, What are the early signs and symptoms of diabetes? I’m 60 years old, and in pretty good shape, but was just diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. What did I miss? Diabetic Dan Dear Dan, The signs and symptoms of type 2 diabetes can be so mild that many people miss them. That’s why testing is so important. Here’s what you should know. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention more than 38 million Americans have diabetes today, and another 97 million have prediabetes, but many of them don’t even know they have it. Type 2 diabetes is a disease that develops slowly over decades. Most people have prediabetes for a long time before the disease becomes full-blown diabetes, and even then, it progresses gradually. Diabetes occurs when your blood glucose, also called blood sugar, is too high. This excess blood sugar damages blood vessels and aff ects circulation, putting you at risk for a host of ailments, from heart attack and stroke to blindness, kidney failure and nerve damage. Signs and Symptoms So how can you tell if you have diabetes? The earliest signs, which PUBLIC NOTICE CITY OF MALDEN LICENSING BOARD Notice is hereby given that a Public Hearing will be held before the Licensing Board for the City of Malden at City Hall, 215 Pleasant Street, Room 108, Malden, MA 02148 on September 17, 2024 at 6:00 p.m. regarding the application of Pran and Pranay, LLC D/B/A Everest Momo and Pizza, 199 Ferry Street, Malden. Application is being made for on premises S12 Restaurant Wine and Malt Beverages 7 day license. All interested parties will be given an opportunity to be heard. Lee A. Kinnon, Chairman Andrew Zeiberg, Member Paul Lee, Member August 30, 2024 are usually subtle, including urinating more frequently (often at night), being thirster and hungrier than usual, weight loss without trying, feeling very tired, having dry itchy skin and blurry vision. And the symptoms that can indicate advanced diabetes and long-term damage has occurred includes cuts or sores that heal slowly, having more infections than usual, and pain or numbness in your feet or legs. Who Should Get Tested? Because prediabetes typically causes no outward symptoms, and the signs of early type 2 diabetes can easily be missed, the only way to know for sure if you have it is to get a blood test. Everyone age 45 years or older should consider getting tested for diabetes, especially if you are overweight with a body mass index (BMI) above 25. See CDC.gov/bmi to calculate your BMI. If you are younger than 45 but are overweight, or have high blood pressure, a family history of diabetes, or belong to an ethnic group (Latino, Asian, African or Native American) at high risk for diabetes, you should get checked too. To help you determine your risk for diabetes, the American Diabetes Association (ADA) has a quick, online risk test you can take for free at Diabetes.org/risk-test. Diabetes Tests There are three diff erent tests your doctor can give you to diagnosis diabetes. The most common is the “fasting plasma glucose test,” which requires an eight-hour fast before you take it. There’s also the “oral glucose tolerance test” to see how your body processes sugar, and the “hemoglobin A1C test” that measures your average blood sugar over the past three months. It can be taken anytime regardless of when you ate. Most private health insurance plans and Medicare cover diabetes tests, however, if you’re reluctant to visit your doctor to get tested, an alternative is to go to the drug store, buy a blood glucose meter and test yourself at home. They cost around $20. If you fi nd that you are prediabetic or diabetic, you need to see your doctor to develop a plan to get it under control. In many cases lifestyle changes like losing weight, exercising, eating a healthy diet and cutting back on carbohydrates may be all you need to do to get your diabetes under control. For others who need more help, many medications are available. For more information on diabetes and prediabetes or to fi nd help, join a lifestyle change program recognized by the CDC (CDC.gov/ diabetes-prevention). These programs off er in-person and online classes in more than 1,500 locations throughout the U.S. Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O.
