See next week’s edition for story and photo highlights. (Advocate photo by Tara Vocino) years ago, when Revere banned recreational marijuana, nobody knew that much about it. He said the mood toward marijuana has since changed. Novoselsky also stressed the potential revenue from marijuana and said the city is scraping for funding to avoid layoff s and scrounging for money to pay for the new high school. “This should go on the ballot,†he said. But not all councillors agreed. Councillor-at-Large Robert Haas said that most of the residents he’s heard from have concerns about marijuana shops. “The majority of people, about 75 percent, who I speak to aren’t in favor of bringing pot shops to the city,†said Haas, adding that residents are worried about shops on Squire Road or in the Popeye’s location. Haas added Ira Novoselsky Ward 2 Councillor that most of his constituents are young families and seniors. Ward 5 Councillor Angela Guarino-Sawaya agreed that the community should make the decision, but she didn’t support a ballot question in November. According to Guarino-Sawaya, the turnout for a non-mayoral election will be low and a marijuana ballot question would not refl ect the will of the whole city. Ward 4 Councillor Paul Argenzio said it should go on the ballot, and even if the turnout is low at least the council will have some indication about how residents feel. Ward 3 Councillor Anthony Cogliandro said residents seem split 50/50 on the question of recreational marijuana shops. But Cogliandro supported a ballot question. “I believe people should have a say,†he said. But Councillor-at-Large Anthony Zambuto opposed the motion, saying that health reports on marijuana have been devastating. “It didn’t go the way people expected it to go,†he said. “I don’t support any way of bringing it back here. I believe it’s truly detrimental and really bad for people’s health. I can’t support this.†City Council President Marc Silvestri supported the idea of a ballot question. “I don’t see a better way than allowing it to go to the residents and letting them decide,†he said. As for suggestions that the revenue from the marijuana industry might not be everything the city expects, Silvestri said that any amount of money marijuana shops bring into the city is more than the money being brought in currently. The council voted 7-4 in favor of a ballot question with Councillors Haas, GuarinoSawaya and Zambuto and Councillor-at-Large Michelle Kelley voting against it.

Revere Public Schools Supt. Dr. Dianne Kelly presented a new list of cuts for the committee to consider. Kelly said repeatedly that the suggested cuts were discussed with school principals and curriculum directors, who have said the proposed cuts involved things they could either do without or fi ll in another way. Kelly first proposed cutting the elementary special education coaches who work with teachers on improving their teaching practice. According to Kelly, school principals said that because the coaches split their time among different schools, the program is not as eff ective as had been hoped. Also proposed as a cut are four consulting teachers who provide job and professional development for classroom teachers. “This was a valuable program no doubt,†said Kelly, adding that school principals said it is great to have them, but it is not a necessity. Kelly’s list also included a middle school Spanish teacher, a High School Biology teacher, a position that was never fi lled and now, no longer needed because of declining enrollment, and a civics coach. “None of these are positions we want to cut, but these are positions staff felt they could absorb and still move forward,†said Kelly, adding that those cuts totaled $1.26 million. Several committee members questioned why no administrators were identified as possible cuts. Kelly said that since 2021 the district Ways and Means Subcommittee Chair John Kingston said he wanted to see at least three of the six health aides retained as well as one of the ROTC instructors slated to be cut. Kingston said there are 190 students signed up for ROTC, and the U.S. Army covers half the salary of ROTC instructors. Dr. Dianne Kelly Supt. of Schools has hired 144 new members of the instructional staff and 14 administrators. She also stated that all non-salary items have been cut by 40 percent. “I don’t know how we even have paper,†she added. The proposed cuts combined with this year’s $5.25 million budget surplus and a small pinch of the reserve fund would get the school department to a balanced budget. Other committee members reminded Kingston that they haven’t yet voted on anything, and all members should have a chance to make the case against any of the proposed cuts. The Ways and Means Subcommittee will meet again on June 11 for a final review of possible cuts. Lawrence A.

Library Makeover Councillors Joanne McKenna (Ward 1) and Angela Guarino-Sawaya presented a motion for a feasibility study for the installation of a handicap-accessible ramp at the front entrance of the Revere Public Library; if a ramp is found to be infeasible, the study should explore the installation of an exterior elevator lift. Don Martelli, a member of the Library Board of Trustees, responded to the motion during the public comment segment of the meeting. Martelli explained that the library is a historic building and the Board of Trustees is looking for grant opportunities to upgrade it. Martelli said the hope is to incorporate the ramp proposal into broader plans to improve the library. Play Ball Ward 5 Councillor Angela Guarino-Sawaya presented a motion that the city conduct a feasibility study to evaluate the installation of a basketball court at the corner of Dunn Road and Shawmut Street; should that site be found unsuitable, the study should consider the existing park at the corner of Neponset and Sagamore Streets.

Savor the Sweetness of National Donut Day with The Salvation Army Massachusetts Division on June 6 The Memorable History Connecting Veterans and Donuts Special to Th e Advocate C ANTON, Mass. (May 30, 2025) — Every year, on the fi rst Friday of June, America satisfi es its sweet tooth by celebrating National Donut Day. This year, the sugary tradition will take place June 6, off ering The Salvation Army a moment to highlight its founding role and the true history behind the holiday. During World War I, brave women volunteering with The Salvation Army traveled to France, setting up fi eld bases near the front lines. In makeshift huts, they provided soldiers with vital supplies, spiritual and emotional support, and, of course, freshly fried donuts. These sweet treats became a symbol of comfort and a morale booster amid the war. Known as The Salvation Army’s “Donut Lassies,†these women are often credited with popularizing the donut in the United States when the troops returned home. In 1938, the first-ever National Donut Day was celebrated in Chicago to both honor the legacy of the Donut Lassies and act as a fundraiser to assist those struggling during the Great Depression. Now, 87 years later, The Salvation Army Massachusetts Division continues to provide critical services and programs to families and those in need across the Commonwealth with food, clothing, rental and utility assistance, holiday gifts, and more. “National Donut Day is a Frying Donuts (Courtesy of the Salvation Army meaningful holiday for us, serving as an important reminder of the impactful work we do daily to support our neighbors,†said Major Elijah Kahn, General Secretary, The Salvation Army Massachusetts Division. “Today, we not only celebrate a beloved treat but also our ongoing commitment to serve as a positive light in people’s lives.†To celebrate the sweet day, The Salvation Army of Massachusetts will be delivering donuts across the Commonwealth. Activities are also planned across all of The Salvation Army’s afterschool and childcare programs in the Greater Boston area along with special distributions to fi rst responders and Veterans in Boston, Lynn, Marlborough, Pittsfi eld, Newburyport, and in the North Shore and Southeastern Massachusetts regions.

Verna (Verrico) Cefalu by family in her family’s home. Born on April 13, 1938, Verna was a third generation Revere, MA resident where she graduated from Revere High School Class of 1955, was married at St. Anthony’s Church, and raised a fourth generation family there. Later in life, she made her home in Peabody, MA, and there continued to nurture generations of her family. Verna retired from HoughF ormerly of Revere and Peabody. Passed on to her new life with God on May 29th, 2025, under the gentle care of hospice and surrounded been the bad old days. Thankfully, most of us survived. We all have had our own struggles the same as everyone else, but there are some who were forced to struggle more. Every year as MLK Jr. Day approaches, I think about past events. I think about what America went through. I think about heroes like Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. who could have led an easy life, but it ton Miffl in Company in Boston after many years of dedicated service as executive secretary to two successive presidents and where she had many friends. Yet, her true life’s work was her devotion to her family as a mother, and as a loving and supportive second mother to her grandchildren and great-grandchildren whom she cherished deeply. She also cherished her active life-long friendships with her Revere friends, those from elementary and high schools, to her neighbors, to her group of St. Anthony’s CYO Band mothers and their families. A lifelong Catholic and faithful member of St. Anthony’s Church in Revere, Verna remained deeply committed to her faith even when she could no longer physically attend Mass. An avid and talented knitter, Verna created and shared hundreds of handknit afghan blankets, sweaters, hats, and gloves throughout her life, gifting these to family, friends, and charitable causes alike. She was a voracious reader, and found joy in traveling, especially to Italy and to visit family and friends across the country. Verna was the beloved wife of the late Gaetano F. “Guy†Cefalu of Revere, and Porticello, Sicily. She was the cherished wasn’t easy for him. He believed we all had a right to be treated equally under the law. To be treated equally in our society. He believed getting embedded in hate only led to more hate. King wouldn’t sit by as an innocent bystander and chose to involve himself in making America become a much better place for all regardless of our creed, color or ethnicity. He inspired so many to folsister of the late Loretta Verrico, of Revere, and the devoted daughter of the late Joseph and Laura (Terminiello) Verrico of Revere. Verna is survived by her three children Joseph Cefalu and his wife, Kathleen of Ipswich, Christopher Cefalu and his wife, Pamela of Peabody, and Maria (Cefalu) Parsons and her husband, Paul of Methuen. She is also survived by her fi ve grandchildren Derek Retalic of Saugus, Rachael Charest of Salem, Christopher Cefalu of Saugus, Thomas Cefalu of NYC, NY, and Christina Cefalu of San Francisco, CA, and her two great grandchildren Jordan Cefalu and Dean Charest. Verna Cefalu will be remembered as a blessing to all who spent time with her. She exuded a warm smile and a humorous wry wit. She quietly possessed and gracefully modeled a spirit of humility, kindness, generosity, and self-sacrifi cing love, an example and gifts she passes on to those she loved. Visitation was held on Thursday, June 5, Buonfi glio Funeral Home, Revere, MA. A funeral service will be held on Friday, followed a at St Anthony’s Church, Revere, and interment at Woodlawn Cemetery in Everett. Rose Marie Desisto O f Revere. A spirited and funny soul, passed away on May 30, 2025. Born in the heart of Boston on January 22, 1937, to Guido and Carmela Ciancarelli, Rose spent her entire life in Revere, a place she held dear to her heart. A loyal fan of Boston sports, Rose had a special place in her heart for the Bruins and Patriots. Rose had a fulfi lling career as a welfare worker for the State of Massachusetts, showcaslow him as they showed his courage to stand up for what is right. He died doing that. In 1968, Dr. King was killed in April. In June 1968, about eight weeks later, Bobby Kennedy also died in his quest to make a better world for all. In between, in May I turned 20 years old, and it inspired me to not also be a bystander in life. We can either just exist or we can live. I chose to live and to ing her compassion and dedication. Always striving to help those in need, she was a beacon of hope and a pillar of support in her community. Even after retirement, Rose’s impact continued to resonate with all those she touched. Rose’s life revolved around her family. She lived in a twofamily home with her brotherin-law, Andrew Frongillo, who cared for her after her twin sister’s passing. Rose is survived by her daughter, Carole Stowell, and Carole’s husband, Jim Stowell; her son, Robert Desisto, and his wife, Christy Desisto; and her daughter-in-law, Andrea Desisto. She was a devoted grandmother to Lynne, Amy, Marissa, Gina, Ricky, Anthony, Rob, and Austin, and a loving great-grandmother to Christopher, Gabby, Evie, Charlie, Luke, and Jack. Rose was preceded in death by her beloved parents, Guido and Carmela Ciancarelli; her fi rst husband, Richie Desisto Sr.; her son, Richie Desisto Jr.; her twin sister, Anna Frongillo; and her second husband, Ed Canty. A funeral service and prayer service took place on Wednesday, June 4, at Buonfi glio Funeral Home, Revere, MA. Interment at Woodlawn Cemetery, Everett, MA. become more than just angry but to do what is right. Here I am today still fi ghting away.

The list of diseases includes By Bob Katzen If you have any questions about this week’s report, e-mail us at bob@beaconhillrollcall.com or call us at (617) 720-1562 THE HOUSE AND SENATE: Beacon Hill Roll Call records local senators’ votes on the only roll call from the week of May 26-30. There were no roll calls in the House last week. $189.6 MILLION FOR CHILDCARE (S 2521) Senate 39-0, approved, House approved on a voice vote without a roll call, and Gov. Maura Healey signed into law a $189.6 fi scal 2025 supplemental budget that provides $95.6 million for the Department of Children and Families and Department of Transitional Assistance-related childcare, and another $94 million for income-eligible childcare. Supporters said the additional funding is necessary because of the diffi culty of advance funding, with precision, these childcare accounts that are “caseload driven.†“For our early education and care providers, without the authorization of such spending, our providers will not receive their scheduled June childcare fi nancial assistance that’s due them,†said Senate Ways and Means Chair Sen Mike Rodrigues (D-Westport). “Passing this supplemental budget ensures families across Massachusetts continue to receive the aff ordable, high-quality childcare they depend on,†said Sen. Dylan Fernandes (D-Falmouth). “Investing in early education and care isn’t just about helping children thrive — it’s about supporting working parents and building a stronger economy.†The Senate approved the bill as Rodrigues was showing visiting New Bedford fourth graders around the Senate chamber. “Just like that, we spent $189 million,†Rodrigues told them. (A “Yes†vote is for the $189.6 million for childcare.) Sen. Lydia Edwards Yes ALSO UP ON BEACON HILL CONTAGIOUS DISEASES AND POLICE, FIREFIGHTERS AND EMERGENCY PERSONNEL (H 2961) — The Public Service Committee held a hearing on a bill that would provide that police, fi re and EMT personnel making claims for death, disability or medical services from contagious diseases — who did not evidence any such condition at the time of entry into service — will be presumed to have acquired these contagious conditions in the line of duty. If it can be shown that non-service-connected risk factors accidents, or hazards caused such incapacity, the presumption can COVID-19, Hepatitis A, B or C, TB, HIV and other conditions found by the Commissioner of Public Health to have a statistically signifi cant correlation with police, fi re or emergency medical service. The bill would expand current law which establishes that disability or death of public safety personnel resulting from certain conditions of cancer, as well as disease of the lungs/respiratory tract, is presumed to be caused in the line of duty. Co-sponsor Rep. Greg Schwartz (D-Newton) said that as a physician he understands the increased risk these public service workers face of contracting infectious diseases. “We ask our fi rst responders to engage with the public in situations that often carry increased risk of personal harm to the responder,†said Schwartz. “They perform invaluable, often lifesaving, service to strangers in the line of duty. It is the least we can do to acknowledge the risk to themselves that they take on to serve others in times of need, and we should support them when that service likely is the cause of disease, disability or death.†PTSD AND POLICE, FIREFIGHTERS AND EMERGENCY PERSONNEL (S 1821) — Another bill before the Public Service Committee would require that the disability or death of police, fi re or various other public safety personnel resulting from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is presumed to have been suff ered in the line of duty. “This legislation is needed to safeguard the health and well-being of our public safety personnel who are on the front lines daily to protect their community members,†said Sen. Sal DiDomenico (D-Everett). “Thanking these public servants is not enough. We need to put action behind our words and make real improvements by passing bills … which would support those dealing with PTSD and reduce stigma around mental health.†4-DAY WORK WEEK PILOT PROGRAM (S 1330) — The Labor and Workforce Development Committee held a hearing on legislation that would create a voluntary 4-day work week pilot program in the Bay State. Participating employers would transition employees to a 4-day work week without any reduction in pay, status or benefi ts. Private employers that complete at least one year in the pilot program and meet reporting requirements, may qualify for state tax credits. Public employers can participate but are not eligible for tax credits. “Americans are overstressed and overworked,†said Sen. Dylan Fernandes (D-Falmouth). “The data shows that a 4-day work week creates a happier workforce, fuels company productivity and helps businesses attract top talent. This pilot program studies its efficacy in Massachusetts to determine whether the 4-day work week could benefi t commonwealth employees and businesses.†PAID PRENATAL LEAVE (S 1361) — Another proposal heard by the Labor and Workforce Development Committee would require employers to provide up to 24 hours of paid prenatal leave per year for pregnant individuals, and up to ten hours for their partners, to support attendance at medical appointments and related care. The proposal is modeled after a similar policy adopted in New York and aims to provide more fl exibility for working families to access critical prenatal care. “I sponsored this bill because expanding prenatal leave helps ensure healthier pregnancies and better birth outcomes,†said sponsor Sen. Jake Oliveira (D-Ludlow). “When we give families the time they need for early care, we strengthen not just individual health but also public health and workplace stability.†INSURANCE COMPANIES MUST NOTIFY DRIVERS (H 1200) — The Financial Services Committee held a hearing on legislation that would require insurance companies to provide a written notifi cation to customers when the company charges a fee to process an electronic payment transaction for an automobile insurance policy. “I fi led this bill after hearing from a constituent who was being charged by their insurance company for making online payments and had never been notifi ed that they would be subject to these fees,†said sponsor GOP Minority Leader Rep. Brad Jones (R-North Reading). “This is a pro-consumer bill that will help to ensure that insurance companies provide full disclosure to their policyholders on any additional fees they may assess for conducting these types of transactions.†EXPIRED INSPECTION STICKERS (H 1195) — Another measure before the Financial Services Committee would remove an expired inspection sticker violation from being a moving violation, which add points to your driver’s record and sometimes surcharges, and instead make it a nonmoving violation, with no points or surcharge. “I filed this consumer-oriented bill to correct, what I feel, is an unfair insurance surcharge assessed to Massachusetts drivers,†said sponsor Rep. Steve Howitt (R-Seekonk). FINANCIAL AID FOR COLLEGE STUDENTS — The Healey Administration is urging all students and families, particularly low-income families, to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) for the 2025-2026 college academic year. The federal form is required for students to be eligible for certain federal and state fi nancial aid, including free community college and opportunities to attend the state’s public fouryear universities without paying tuition and fees. “Earlier this year, we visited high schools across Massachusetts for our Higher Educa׉ Ú7cassandra://qnh_oBcAjHm2kKto_PAt0ZFfT0nrBjWX0S5Wh2AS0gUÍ/wÍ`ÌÔÍ×hAä5úYzx 4C׉EÚØTHE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, JUNE 6, 2025 Page 17 tion Financial Aid Road Show,†said Education Secretary Dr. Patrick Tutwiler. “The students we spoke with expressed overwhelming interest in going to college, but many said they were unaware of the historic levels of available state fi - nancial aid. Massachusetts has nearly $400 million in fi nancial aid and we want students and families to know the fi rst step to accessing this money is to complete the FAFSA.†“Too many students leave money on the table by not completing the FAFSA, and the implications of that are significant,†said Commissioner of Higher Education Noe Ortega. “Accessing fi nancial aid has an impact on whether a student attends the institution of their choice or attends college at all. College access, and the upward mobility that comes from a college degree, all start with applying for fi nancial aid.†Students and families can learn more about FAFSA by visiting Mass.Gov/FinancialAid which has links to free FAFSA. QUOTABLE QUOTES — LET THE 2026 RACE FOR GOVERNOR BEGIN “Massachusetts means business. We need to support our entrepreneurs and companies, cut their costs and make it easier to do business in our state. That’s what we are doing by cutting red tape, simplifying regulations and saving thousands of businesses and business owners signifi cant time and money so they can focus on what matters most — growing jobs and contributing to our economy.†---Gov. Maura Healey announcing that she is eliminating a series of regulations for the purpose of saving businesses and business owners time and money. “Gov. Maura Healey has spent her days in the Corner Offi ce devastating Massachusetts’ business environment and making life unaff ordable for working people through her support for increased regulations, fees and taxes. As a result, Massachusetts is bleeding businesses, private sector jobs and workers, and is now dead last in the country in job growth.†---Brian Shortsleeve, candidate for the Republican nomination for governor. “Gov. Healey’s so-called regulatory reform is nothing more than political theater. Any small business owner can see right through this. These symbolic tweaks won’t even begin to fi x the hostile business climate, sky-high taxes, and runaway spending that are making Massachusetts unaff ordable and unattractive to employers.†---Mike Kennealy, candidate for Republican nomination for governor. HOW LONG WAS LAST WEEK’S SESSION? Beacon Hill Roll Call tracks the length of time that the House and Senate were in session each week. Many legislators say that legislative sessions are only one aspect of the Legislature’s job and that a lot of important work is done outside of the House and Senate chambers. They note that their jobs also involve committee work, research, constituent work and other matters that are important to their districts. Critics say that the Legislature does not meet regularly or long enough to debate and vote in public view on the thousands of pieces of legislation that have been fi led. They note that the infrequency and brief length of sessions are misguided and lead to irresponsible late-night sessions and a mad rush to act on dozens of bills in the days immediately preceding the end of an annual session. During the week of May 2630, the House met for a total of four hours and 11 minutes while the Senate met for a total of three hours and 22 minutes. Mon. May 26 No House session. No Senate session. Tues. May 27 House 11:01 a.m. to 1:33 p.m. Senate 11:32 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Wed. May 28 No House session. No Senate session. . Thurs. May 29 House 11:01 a.m. to 12:40 p.m. Senate 11:20 a.m. to 12:44 p.m. Fri. May 30 No House session. No Senate session.

ASSET PROTECTION CONCERNS WITH IRA’S T he Employment Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) protects assets held in a qualifi ed retirement plan from the reach of creditors. What about IRA’s? Are they a protected asset? The trend in recent years has been to bring IRA’s in line with qualifi ed plans in terms of protection against creditors. In Patterson v. Shumate, 504 U.S. 753 (1992), the Supreme Court ruled that an interest in an ERISA qualified trust is excluded from a debtor’s bankruptcy estate. In Rousey v. Jacoway, 544 U.S. 320 (2005), the Court ruled that Individual Retirement Accounts (IRA’s) are similarly exempt. Subsequently, the Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act of 2005 amended the Bankruptcy Code to provide that IRA’s and Roth IRA’s are exempt up to certain limits that are adjusted every three years. The latest update in March of this year brought the level of protection up to $1,711,975. In Massachusetts, under Mass General Laws, Chapter 235, Section 34A, amounts that have been rolled over from a qualifi ed retirement plan into an IRA are protected from all creditors’ claims other than those connected with divorce, child support, or criminal penalties or restitution. This is exactly the same degree of protection as is provided by the statute for qualifi ed plans. If you roll money from your 401(k) plan into an IRA account that includes non-ERISA contributions, the liability protection level will not be unlimited. Liability protection will be limited to $1,711,975. This is an example of a co-mingled IRA account. IRA contributions other than rollovers made during the 5-year period preceding the IRA owner’s declaration of bankruptcy are protected only to the extent of an amount equal to 7% of the individual’s income during that 5-year period. For the calendar year 2025, the maximum amount you can contribute to an IRA is $7,000. For anyone 50 years or older, the additional catchup contribution is $1,000. These same limitations apply to Roth IRA’s. Individuals who receive compensation (e.g. W-2 income), including alimony, that is includible in gross income, are entitled to make contributions to Traditional or Roth IRA’s per the SECURE Act of 2019, regardless of age. Previously, the age limit was 70 ?. When you or your spouse are an active participant in a qualifi ed retirement plan, the deduction may be reduced or even eliminated depending on how high your adjusted gross income is. You need to make the contribution by 4-15-26 for a calendar year 2025 deduction. Filing for an extension will not give you extra time to make the IRA contribution for calendar year 2025. For married individuals fi ling joint returns, if both taxpayers are active participants in an employer’s qualifi ed retirement plan, their ability to claim a deduction for contributions made to traditional IRA’s depends upon the amount of their modifi ed adjusted gross income. The allowable deduction will be reduced when modifi ed adjusted gross income is between $126,000 and $146,000. For a single taxpayer, the deduction for an IRA is phased out if he or she is an active participant in a qualifi ed retirement plan and modifi ed adjusted gross income is between $79,000 and $89,000. However, if only one of the married taxpayers is an active participant in a qualifi ed retirement plan, the deductible contribution by the spouse who is not an active participant is phased out if the couple’s modifi ed adjusted gross income is between $236,000 and $246,000. Knowing that you not only get a tax deduction for a contribution to a Traditional IRA and that the IRA account is exempt from creditors, one might have one more reason to contribute each year to an IRA.

Dear Savvy Senior, I take Advil pretty regularly for arthritis pain and headaches, but how can I tell if I’m taking more than is safe? Achy Alan Dear Alan, Ibuprofen — better known by one of its brand names, Advil — is one of the most popular medications on the market today for treating all diff erent types of pain, headaches, fevers and cramps. Given the drug’s broad pain-reducing eff ects, safety record and availability over the counter (OTC), it’s no surprise that some people pop the little brownish-red tablets whenever they feel the slightest twinge of discomfort. But ibuprofen, which is also sold under brand names like Motrin and Nuprin, can pose certain health risks, especially for those with kidney or stomach issues. Here’s what you should know. What’s Safe? For most adults and children ages 12 years and older, the recommended OTC dose of ibuprofen is one (or two, if needed) 200-milligram tablets, caplets or gel caplets every four to six hours while symptoms persist. You shouldn’t take more than 1,200 mg (or six pills) in a 24hour period. If you haven’t consulted a doctor about how much is safe, or if you aren’t certain about your risk factors, it’s best not to exceed the recommended limit of 1,200 milligrams a day. If you have chronic pain, or were recently injured or had surgery, your doctor may prescribe ibuprofen for you at a higher dose. Prescription tablets are usually stronger compared to the OTC dose, such as 600 mg and 800 mg. The maximum daily dose for prescription-strength ibuprofen is 3,200 mg in a 24-hour period. But it’s important only to take what your provider has prescribed for you. Also be aware that ibuprofen is sometimes added to certain cold and fl u medications, so always read the ingredient list on medications before using them. Be Cautious! Ibuprofen belongs to a class of drugs known as nonsteroidal anti-infl ammatory drugs, or NSAIDs, which reduce pain and infl ammation by blocking the activity of certain enzymes. But these enzymes also help maintain kidney and liver function and regulate the balance of fluids and electrolytes in your body. So, taking ibuprofen can be dangerous for patients with kidney disease or failure; those with liver damage or cirrhosis; and people with conditions that put strain on their kidneys, like high blood pressure or heart failure. Those at high risk for these conditions — as well as for stomach ulcers, heart attacks, strokes or bleeding problems — should talk with their doctors before taking ibuprofen. People who take medications such as diuretics, anticoagulants, ACE inhibitors or ARBs (angiotensin receptor blockers) to manage cardiovascular issues should also be careful, because ibuprofen stresses the kidneys and the heart. To reduce these health risks, don’t take the maximum recommended dose for more than a week or two at a time. If you need it for more than two weeks, or if you’re turning to ibuprofen every day to keep your aches and pains in check, you need to see your doctor. When taken for long periods, ibuprofen can also increase the risk of stomach ulcers. The drug inhibits enzymes that, among other things, aid in the production of mucus that lines and protects the stomach lining, so without these enzymes, the stomach becomes vulnerable to irritation and damage. Some alternatives to ibuprofen you should talk to your doctor about include acetaminophen (Tylenol), topical NSAIDs (diclofenac gel) that is not absorbed into the blood to the same extent as oral NSAIDs, nonacetylated salicylates, curcumin (an active ingredient in turmeric) and acupuncture.

Our words often never matched our actions. We strive today to keep America growing into that better place we all wish to see. Thomas Jeff erson once said over 250 years ago, “When God created us, he gave us life and at that same time gave us liberty.†Apparently, his words were a bit ahead of the times he lived in. However, today we have come to recognize that there is more that unites us than divides us. We are all sadly bound by our time. It is easy to condemn the past but are any of us perfect today? We live in troubled times today and grow further apart. We are one nation under God and that won’t change. We must become a better nation and that struggle will never end. God Bless America. Remember what Juneteenth Day means. Also, we must stand tall on The Fourth of July for we are Americans, and we need to stand together to go forward. All lives matter because we are in this democratic republic together, and it won’t work without everyone working as a team. We did it back in 1775 at Bunker Hill and we still need to do it together today. AMERICA IS BUILT TO LAST. True patriotism is more than celebrating holidays or shooting off fi reworks. More than parades. It is about truly understanding how to keep Like us on Facebook advocate newspaper Facebook. com/ Advocate. news.ma YOUR LOCAL NEWS & SPORTS IN SIX LANGUAGES. SUBSCRIBE TO THE ADVOCATE ONLINE BY SCANNING HERE! America alive and steering it forward into the future. Making sure in our time, we move this country forward to better days ahead. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO AMERICA AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO EVERYONE WHO KNOWS THEY ARE AMERICANS, and we should consider ourselves lucky that this is our country. Never ever forget. Every generation has a responsibility to pass on our dreams and hopes to those who will follow. We cannot undo the past, but we can focus on our shared futures. The torch is in our hands now and our job is to pass it forward to succeeding generations. We cannot undo the past. We cannot simply cancel it. We must learn from it and always move ourselves forward. - LEGAL NOTICE -           î˜îµµî’îîŽ î€§îŒî™îŒî–îŒî’î‘ î€§î’î†îŽîˆî— î’  Estate of:    Also Known As:    Date of Death: î„î‘î˜î„î•îœ î€•î€šî€ î€•î€“î€•î€˜       î€”î€œî€“î€¥î€ î‚† î€î€– To all persons who have or may have some interest in the î„î…î’î™îˆî€î†î„î“î—îŒî’î‘îˆî‡ îˆî–î—î„î—îˆ î„î‘î‡î€ îŒî‰ îŒî‘î—îˆî•îˆî–î—îˆî‡î€ î—î’ î—î‹îˆ î†îˆ î’î‰ î—î‹îˆ î—î—î’î•î‘îˆîœ îˆî‘îˆî•î„î î„î‘î‡ î—î‹îˆ îˆî“î„î•î—îîˆî‘î— î’î‰ î€¹îˆî—îˆî•î„î‘î– î€¤îµµî„îŒî•î–î€ î‘î’î—îŒî†îˆ is hereby given on î„îœ î€•î€ î€•î€“î€•î€˜ that the Petitioner î’î–î‹î˜î„  îˆî‘ of î„îšî•îˆî‘î†îˆî€  îŒî‘î—îˆî‘î‡î– î—î’ î‚¿îîˆ îšîŒî—î‹ î—î‹îˆ î„î…î’î™îˆî€î‘î„îîˆî‡ î•î’î…î„î—îˆ and Family Court, not sooner then seven (7) days after this notice, a îˆî—îŒî—îŒî’î‘ î‰î’î• î€¬î‘î‰î’î•îî„î î•î’î…î„î—îˆ î’î‰ î„ î€ºîŒîî îˆî—îŒî—îŒî’î‘ î‰î’î• î€¬î‘î‰î’î•îî„î î“î“î’îŒî‘î—îîˆî‘î— î’î‰ î€³îˆî•î–î’î‘î„î îˆî“î•îˆî–îˆî‘î—î„î—îŒî™îˆ, to serve îšîŒî—î‹î’î˜î— î–î˜î•îˆî—îœ on the bond. î‹îˆ îˆî–î—î„î—îˆ îŒî– î…îˆîŒî‘îŠ î„î‡îîŒî‘îŒî–î—îˆî•îˆî‡ î˜î‘î‡îˆî• îŒî‘î‰î’î•îî„î î“î•î’î†îˆî‡î˜î•îˆ î…îœ î—î‹îˆ îˆî•î–î’î‘î„î îˆî“î•îˆî–îˆî‘î—î„î—îŒî™îˆ î˜î‘î‡îˆî• î—î‹îˆ î„î–î–î„î†î‹î˜î–îˆî—î—î– î€¸î‘îŒî‰î’î•î î•î’î…î„î—îˆ î€¦î’î‡îˆ îšîŒî—î‹î’î˜î— î–î˜î“îˆî•î™îŒî–îŒî’î‘ î…îœ î—î‹îˆ î’î˜î•î— î‘î™îˆî‘î—î’î•îœ î„î‘î‡ î„î†î†î’î˜î‘î—î– î„î•îˆ î‘î’î— î•îˆî”î˜îŒî•îˆî‡ î—î’ î…îˆ î‚¿îîˆî‡ îšîŒî—î‹ î—î‹îˆ î’î˜î•î—î€ î…î˜î— îŒî‘î—îˆî•îˆî–î—îˆî‡ î“î„î•î—îŒîˆî– î„î•îˆ îˆî‘î—îŒî—îîˆî‡ î—î’ î‘î’î—îŒî†îˆ î•îˆîŠî„î•î‡îŒî‘îŠ î—î‹îˆ î„î‡îîŒî‘îŒî–î—î•î„î—îŒî’î‘ î‰î•î’î î—î‹îˆ îˆî•î–î’î‘î„î îˆî“î•îˆî–îˆî‘î—î„î—îŒî™îˆ î„î‘î‡ î†î„î‘ î“îˆî—îŒî—îŒî’î‘ î—î‹îˆ î’î˜î•î— îŒî‘ î„î‘îœ îî„î—î—îˆî• î•îˆîî„î—îŒî‘îŠ î—î’ î—î‹îˆ îˆî–î—î„î—îˆî€ îŒî‘î†îî˜î‡îŒî‘îŠ î‡îŒî–î—î•îŒî…î˜î—îŒî’î‘ î’î‰ î„î–î–îˆî—î– î„î‘î‡ îˆî›î“îˆî‘î–îˆî– î’î‰ î„î‡îîŒî‘îŒî–î—î•î„î—îŒî’î‘ î‘î—îˆî•îˆî–î—îˆî‡ î“î„î•î—îŒîˆî– î„î•îˆ îˆî‘î—îŒî—îîˆî‡ î—î’ î“îˆî—îŒî—îŒî’î‘ î—î‹îˆ î’î˜î•î— î—î’ îŒî‘î–î—îŒî—î˜î—îˆ î‰î’î•îî„î î“î•î’î†îˆîˆî‡îŒî‘îŠî– î„î‘î‡ î—î’ î’î…î—î„îŒî‘ î’î•î‡îˆî•î– î—îˆî•îîŒî‘î„î—îŒî‘îŠ î’î• î•îˆî–î—î•îŒî†î—îŒî‘îŠ î—î‹îˆ î“î’îšîˆî•î– î’î‰ î€³îˆî•î–î’î‘î„î îˆî“î•îˆî–îˆî‘î—î„î—îŒî™îˆî– î„î“î“î’îŒî‘î—îˆî‡ î˜î‘î‡îˆî• îŒî‘î‰î’î•îî„î î“î•î’î†îˆî‡î˜î•îˆî€‘  î†î’î“îœ î’î‰ î—î‹îˆ îˆî—îŒî—îŒî’î‘ î„î‘î‡ î€ºîŒîîî€ îŒî‰ î„î‘îœî€ î†î„î‘ î…îˆ î’î…î—î„îŒî‘îˆî‡ î‰î•î’î î—î‹îˆ îˆî—îŒî—îŒî’î‘îˆî•î€‘ î˜î‘îˆ î€™î€ î€•î€“î€•î€˜ Carpentry * Kitchen & Bath * Roofs * Painting Decks * Siding * Carrijohomeimprovement.com Call 781-710-8918 * Saugus, MA General Contractor * Interior & Exterior Licensed & Insured Free Estimates FOR RENT - EVERETT 1 & 2 Bedroom Apts.
