Following an application and review process, the awards were recommended by the City’s ARPA Nonprofi t Subcommittee, which includes Councillor-at-Large Craig Spadafora, Malden Public Library Director Dora St. Martin and lifelong Malden resident Linda Zalk. The requests for funding were enthusiastically supported and approved by Mayor Gary Christenson. “Organizations such as The Food Drive and Chinese Culture Connection have had a tremendous impact on our community as we face the challenges of COVID-19 and its aftermath,” said Councillor Spadafora. “Throughout the pandemic and as we recover, food banks work tirelessly to provide healthy food to families in need while programs like the CCC continue to assist families with access to resources and supports through their programming.

Page 2 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, September 30, 2022 Malden Public Library award winners Shaping your legacy: a luncheon presentation W hat kind of legacy do you wish to be remembered by? Mystic Valley Elder Services (MVES) invites residents to consider their legacies with insights from Judi Taylor Cantor, CFRE, a planned giving expert and author for more than 40 years. On Wednesday, Oct. 12, Cantor Members of The Order of Knights of Pythias present awards to the winners of the Malden Public Library’s summer reading program. O n Saturday, September 24, at the Malden Public Library, six children who participated in the library’s summer reading program were each honored with prizes donated by The Order of Knights of Pythias, a fraternal organization. At this special ceremony, each winner received a medal and a Kindle Fire tablet. Eligible participants reported their reading minutes to the library for all six weeks of the program and met the minimum requirement of two hours each week. (All of the award recipients actually exceeded this weekly goal!) The names of all eligible participants were grouped by gender and grade (students who had just completed the first, second or third grade), and then one name was drawn from each group. The prizes were presented by two Pythians: Alan Zamansky and Harvey Slobodkin. The Order of Knights of Pythias is an international, nonsectarian, fraternal order that was established in Washington, D.C., in 1864 by Justus H. Rathbone. The fraternal order follows three distinguishing principles – Friendship, Charity and Benevolence – and supports charitable, benevolent, fraternal and social activities. will lead “Philanthropic Love Stories,” a conversation about legacy planning and how others have made a lasting impact on the causes and organizations that matter most to them. This event, the Independence Legacy Society Luncheon, will be held from noon to 2 p.m., at the headquarters of MVES (300 Commercial St., #19, Malden, Mass.). All are welcome to learn more about legacy giving and the MVES Independence Legacy Society. Luncheon will be served. There is no charge to attend but RSVPs are required by Oct. 5. Legacies enable people to pass on their values, not just their funds, and to have a direct and positive eff ect on the future. They are also appealing for their practical aspects, such as providing a tax-exempt way to bequeath. “MVES has been honored with legacy gifts over the years, and each one is unique and special,” said MVES Director of Development Jenny Vanasse. “We’re so pleased to have Judi Taylor Cantor visit MVES for this special presentation on how to make a positive charitable impact on organizations that donors care about through legacy giving.” Cantor has an extensive background in legacies; she has led Julie Taylor Cantor Legacy Planner planned giving eff orts for charitable organizations, including Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Centers and Dartmouth Geisel School of Medicine, Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, American Museum of Natural History and Boston Symphony Orchestra. The Independence Legacy Society of MVES honors and celebrates people who intend to include MVES in their will, estate plan or other forms of planned gifts. Your legacy gift will provide future generations of older adults and people with disabilities the care they need to be able to live with independence and dignity in their homes. As always, your gift benefi ts your community, assisting residents in the 11 towns and cities that MVES serves.

THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, September 30, 2022 Page 3 Malden receives historic levels of funding through Municipal Vulnerability Preparedness program Malden legislative delegation worked with city offi cials and regional coalitions to secure over $1M for combating regional impacts from climate change G overnor Charlie Baker’s Administration recently announced $32.8 million in grants to municipalities throughout the Commonwealth through the Municipal Vulnerability Preparedness (MVP) grant program of the Executive Offi ce of Energy and Environmental Affairs (EOEEA). The program was launched in 2017 and has since invested a total of $100 million in 97% of cities and towns in Massachusetts. The City of Malden is one of 73 communities to receive action grant funding through the latest round of applications; $200,550 will be directly invested in the Malden River Works Project, which aims to transform two acres of land behind the Malden Department of Public Works into a climate-resilient riverfront park. The investment will be used to continue design work and prepare construction documents for the project, with bids ready to be released by the fall of 2023. Since 2020, Malden River Works has received a total of $704,150 in MVP grants, bringing the project’s design phase up to 75% completion. The continued investment from the state has been crucial to the Jason Lewis State Senator Steven Ultrino State Representative planning and implementation of an important project that represents a new wave of climate resilient planning steps taken by the City. Additionally, this year, as a member of the Resilient Mystic Collaborative and the Saugus River Watershed Council, Malden has also been working with a coalition of cities and towns surrounding the Mystic River and Saugus River watersheds to develop sustainable climate change planning in the region.

Lewis recently informed debate organizers that he would not participate in the debate or any others. “Senator Lewis should show up and defend his record,” said Councilor Dombroski. “This is a job interview. The voters of this district deserve to hear from both of the people seeking this offi ce so they can make an informed decision when they vote. While his decision to not participate is disappointing, it is not surprising – it is exactly the strategy long-time incumbents use to ensure they don’t have to answer to voters.” Councilor Dombroski and Senator Lewis are currently only scheduled to take part in one 60-minute debate in Wakefield on October 17, hosted by Wakefi eld Community Access Television (WCAT). As the 5th Middlesex Senate district also includes Malden, Melrose, Reading, Stoneham and Winchester, Dombroski contends that the candidates owe it to voters to off er more opportuniS LANDSCAPE & MASONRY CO.

Dombroski has called for a total of six candidate debates or forums, one in each community. “Senator Lewis has been on Beacon Hill for nearly 13 years and you would think he’d have a lot of accomplishments to point to,” said Dombroski. “I don’t understand why he would not want to give voters in all the communities we are seeking to represent the opportunity to hear from both of us on the same stage. A cornerstone of our democracy is public debate. Candidates need to earn that vote.” Dombroski’s campaign provided the League of Women Voters six options for dates Ed Dombroski Wakefi eld Town Councilor/ State Senator candidate in late September and early October. “It was important to us to have that debate before any votes are cast,” Dombroski added, pointing to mailin voting that begins in early October. “Given Senator Lewis’ refusal, the only opportunity for voters to hear from us together will be after voting is well underway. “This isn’t how democracy works. We should be giving voters more than one opportunity to hear from those that want to represent them.” Dombroski is a family law attorney and small business owner and has served on the Wakefi eld Town Council for six years. He is endorsed by Governor Charlie Baker. Outdoor Family Movie Night in the Park at River’s Edge J oin us for a “Movie Night in the Park at Rivers Edge” on Friday, October 7 at 7:00 p.m. The movie will be on the Park at River’s Edge Great Lawn adjacent to 200 River’s Edge Dr. in Medford.

THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, September 30, 2022 Page 5 New arts collective with Malden dancer launches augmented-reality dance experience Arts collective The Click offers site-specifi c contemporary dance that viewers watch on mobile devices T he newly formed arts collective The Click will launch its fi rst project – an immersive, augmented reality (AR), contemporary dance experience called “Emotive Land” – on Oct. 1 at 1 p m in Cambridge’s Kendall Square Canal District. “Emotive Land” engages dance, music, fi lm and technology in an AR experience that investigates a growing need for harmony among art, culture, innovation and nature while animating the natural and built environments of the tech-focused neighborhood. A one-hour free live performance, at which live dancers will move and engage with digital content at sites along the water, celebrates the app launch. (Launch event rain date is Oct. 2 at 1 p.m.) “Emotive Land” is accessed through an app that allows audience members to view virtual dance performances on smartphone screens at specifi c sites. The app will be accessible from The Click website wwwtheclickboston.com – as well as the Apple App Store, the Google Play Store and other app locations on Oct. 1. The app for “Emotive Land” will be available from October 1 through November 30. The project was conceived and co-created by The Click founding members dancer Kristin Wagner and dancer/choreographer Lonnie Stanton with app development and tech conAlexandra Nunweller Malden resident sultation by James Peerless. Stanton choreographed the performances in the app and for the live launch event. Her native Hawaiian heritage informs the curatorial lens for the project, which centers on nature's resilience and encourages viewers to consider a relationship to the land rooted in stewardship versus hierarchical ownership. Stanton said the creative team considered how physical constraints of public spaces shape both human expression and growth, and worked to create an experience that helps viewers understand the “dynamic dance” that persists between themselves and their environment. Through technology designed by software engineer Peerless, “Emotive Land” transforms public spaces into places to discover, access and enjoy contemporary dance. Peerless said AR technology has gained popularity among developers and in commercial uses – evidenced by the wildly popular “Pokémon Go” game that swept the globe in 2016 and its use by retailers to help customers to envision how furniture or products might look in their homes. “The overlap of AR technology and the arts is pretty small right now, but it’s growing,” Peerless said. Viewers who download the app and open it near the Kendall Square Canal District will encounter visual prompts that lead them to spots where virtual dancers appear on their screens, seeming to interact with actual locations. “It’s a way to bring the feeling of being at a live performance in an on-demand way,” Peerless said. With no set show time and no cost, “Emotive Land” encourages more access to dance experiences. “We want people to see the power of community when engaging with this work,” Wagner said. “The pandemic made us realize we can coexist and thrive with technology; that’s why we [Click artists] chose a technological venture as our fi rst project. Our work is heightened by the creative freedom that technology off ers – audience members are free to come and go at any time.” Some other artists for “Emotive Land” (in alpha order) are dancer Angelina Benitez, dancer/choreographer/fi lmmaker Olivia Blaisdell, dancer/choreographer/fi lmOUR OFFICE HAS MOVED TO 519 BROADWAY, EVERETT SABATINO INSURANCE AGENCY 519 BROADWAY EVERETT, MA 02149 PHONE: (617) 387-7466 FAX: (617) 381-9186 Visit us online at: Rocco Longo, Owner WWW.SABATINO-INS.COM Sorry No Checks - ATM on site Like us on Facebook advocate newspaper Facebook.com/Advocate.news.ma Roller skate rentals included in all prices Inline Skate Rentals $3.00 additional BIRTHDAY & PRIVATE PARTIES AVAILABLE www.roller-world.com maker Lindsay Caddle LaPointe, dancer Rachel Linsky, dancer Alexandria Nunweiler (Malden, Mass.) and sound designer Nate Tucker.

Page 6 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, September 30, 2022 Malden Musings – Extreme at Fenway Park by Peter F Levine I n case you haven’t already heard, Malden’s own heavy-metal heroes, the mighty Extreme, opened for Aerosmith at the ballpark that Captain Carl made famous, Fenway Park. Contrary to popular belief, Extreme are still a working band – haven’t stopped since their conception in the mid ’80’s – from international tours to monster metal mashups to the Indian Ranch in Webster to the Love Boat. Call them, they’ll play. They just aren’t as visible as in their “More Than Words” days Law Offices of Terrence W.

Fast forward to 2022 and Extreme are excited to play Fenway with their childhood idols, Aerosmith. But fi rst, a short detour. Before we talk about the actual show, I need to mention that (said in my best Rodney Dangerfi eld voice) Extreme, they get no respect. Never have in Boston. They made their bones in Providence, R.I., and in the suburbs of Boston before the snobbishly insular college rock radio crowd in Beantown even acknowledged they existed. Appears not much has changed since their 1989 self-titled debut album was launched by A&M Records. Example: The next day’s Boston Globe review, by Maura Johnston, screamed, “A fi ery 50th for Aerosmith at Fenway.” Maura acknowledged the “spirited set” from fellow hard rockers Extreme then continued gushing on about Aerosmith.

This was Aerosmith’s night. But Extreme deserved more than passing praise on one of the biggest nights in their career. Whatever. I ain’t saying they outperformed Aerosmith, but much like Ali and Foreman in the “Rumble in the Jungle,” Gary and the boys went 15 rounds and were still standing tall with the greatest American hard rock band of all time. Extreme don’t care. Never have. They just go out and perform. But I digress. What a show! There have been many, many highlights in the long career of Extreme – from signing a record deal with Herb Alpert’s A&M Records to stealing the show at the Freddie Mercury Tribute to meeting former Beatle George Harrison as well as becoming fast friends with the likes of childhood idols Roger Daltrey, Brian May and Alice Cooper. This show “thunderclapped” to the top of the list after a three-year Covid-delayed wait. Well worth the wait. At Fenway, like a kid in the proverbial candy store, Gary quickly made himself at home, doing exactly what any of us would do given access to America’s greatest ballpark. Explore the Green Monsta. Check. Picture in front of Green Monsta. Check. Walk the same hallowed halls as Yaz, Teddy Ballgame, Jim Ed, Dewey, El Tiante, Malzone and Pumpsie Green. Check! A dream come true for this hard-core Boston boy. But I digress, once again... Oh yeah, the music...must be something in the Boston water! What is it with age defying performers who call Boston home? Guys like Willie Alexander, Peter Wolf, Tyler & Perry, Johnny A, Sal Baglio and Rick Berlin – who started out in the once fertile Boston music scene decades ago and are still at it. Amazing. Count Gary, Nuno and Patrick amongst Boston rockers who survived and continue to enrich our lives with their gift of music. Their set was one of the best I’ve seen in years. Granted, I don’t go to many shows anymore (comfortable recliners will do that), but given the times and the venue (and the length of the set – brief), the selection was nothing short of exceptional. Nuno (solo) took center stage electric and grabbed us by the throat with a passionate nod to our hardball environs with a rendition of “The Star-Spangled Banner” that Jimi would have been proud of. Then came old faves (best as I can remember) “Decadence Dance,” “‘Li’l Jack Horny” (Yes, they still perform this – hey, it’s a fun song!), then “It’s a Monster.” People danced (well, some did), people drank more (most did) and the band started to pick up steam. I am into my third 16 ounce $17 Sam Adams at this point, so the band is starting to sound like Led Zeppelin to me. My favorite Extreme song, “Am I Ever Gonna Change?” is next followed by my least favorite, “Play with Me.” The 60-something crowd is still puzzling over the fi rst line of “Play with Me” (“Ring around the rosie, hopscotch, monopoly, red light, green light, G. I. Joes and Barbies, hide and seek, kick the can”) when suddenly, blam, Extreme throw a delightful “Hole Hearted” at us. The fans he lost during “Play with Me” are back! Then not a dry eye amongst those of us who knew where Gary’s heart was when he went into an abbreviated version of Neil Diamond’s “Sweet Caroline” – a loving nod to his late mom, Josephine, who adored Neil (but adored her fi ve boys even more). Then Nuno took center stage yet again (oh vey!), dazzling the crowd with another sweet instrumental, “Midnight Express,” followed by the song most likely to be heard while at Market Basket, earworm heaven (with a “Stairway to Heaven” intro tease), “More Than Words.” Closing out was “Cupid’s Dead” (a highlight), but it just didn’t punch back hard enough without the rap section that was performed on the 1992 recordMUSINGS | SEE PAGE 7

Nuno showcased on “Flight of the Wounded Bumblebee” before they fi nished with the funk-metal crowd pleaser, “Get the Funk Out.” Disclaimer: I had to be dragged kicking and screaming to this show (“Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in!”) but gotta admit out loud that this was one of the best nights, like evah! Fenway Park lived up to its reputation as a fi rst-class music venue with great sight lines, pristine sound and over-accommodating personnel working the aisles. Aerosmith just killed it. Extreme realized yet another dream.

Insert smiley face. As Peter Falk’s iconic TV character “Columbo” would say, “Just one more thing, sir” – let’s wrap this up: This past summer marked the 31st anniversary of the Malden/Medford based hard rock outfi t Extreme’s number one Billboard hit, the acoustic ballad heard round the world, “More Than Words.” To put that into perspective, the legendary British rock band The Who never had a number one hit! Written on Gary’s front porch at his childhood home on Highland Avenue with partner in crime Nuno (Bettencourt), the song was often referred to by the band as “a blessing and a curse.” Gary recalled this in an interview with Los Angeles radio station KNAC: “That song gave us the freedom way toward a more sustainable future for our entire region,” said State Senator Jason Lewis (D-Fifth Middlesex). “The state legislature has prioritized funding for the MVP program because we understand how critical it is for local municipalities to receive both technical and fi nancial assistance to help mitigate the growing impacts from climate change, such as increased fl ooding and ecological damage. I’m hopeful that projects like Malden River Works will become a model for collaboration between state and local stakeholders to forge innovative and sustainable relationships with our natural environment.” “The Malden River Works Project has been making great progress and this funding will make sure that progress is able to continue,” said State Representative Paul Donato (D-Malden, Medford). “Not only is this project bringing accessible outdoor space to Malden, it’s an important step in making sure that our community remains resilient to the eff ects of climate change. We must continue to fund climate sustainable infrastructure if we care about protecting our future.” “I’m thrilled that, through multiple grant rounds includnity discussion taking place on Wednesday, Dec 14.

This project is being administered by the City of Malden’s Offi ce of Strategic Planning & Community Development. to make the record we really wanted to make when we started recording our third disc…It got us doing huge tours all over the states and around the world. As the nineties went on, however, we really started to resent the song. We were tagged ‘the More Than Words guys.’ We didn’t like the perception the song created about the band. I remember being on tour with Aerosmith in Poland, it was on that tour we decided we would not play the song. We just didn’t do it. A couple nights into the tour, Steven Tyler writes in big letters on our dressing room door, ‘play the (expletive deleted) song!’ His attitude was almost father-like. He was like, ‘look, this is your fi rst time in Poland. When do you think you will be back? They want to hear it, so play it!’” Postscript 1: Words from on ing this latest, Malden will have received upwards of $1 million in State funds through the MVP Program,” said State Representative Kate Lipper-Garabedian (D-Malden, Melrose, Wakefi eld). “I was glad to join the full legislative delegation in advocating for the City's applications. The Malden River Works project represents a promising intersection in our priorities of climate resiliency and access to shared community spaces.” As the MVP program reaches its fi ve-year anniversary, EOEEA is formulating a process, trainings and resources – called “MVP Planning 2.0” – for updating MVP plans and the priority actions identifi ed within them. It is expected to launch in spring 2023. high! Thank you, Steven Tyler, for sage advice when Extreme needed you most! Postscript 2: I never said I was a huge Aerosmith fan: So, we are a couple songs into Aerosmith’s set, the big screen looming over our heads zooms in on all the players on stage. I say to myself I am loving Joey Kramer’s new moss. He’s grown it out long and he seems to have an extra bounce behind the kit.

This has become an issue particularly on Exchange Street, where trash is being left outside the larger apartment buildings located there. "This has to end. We will be asking that these building managers or business owners, whichever they may be, be informed on the codes governing trash removal in this downtown district," Councillor Spadafora said. "The sights and smells that are emanating down there are not appropriate or acceptable, in addition to the inconvenience being experienced by pedestrians or those looking for a parking space.

According to general reports, however, there has been a definite uptick in negative and confrontational behavior by coaches and players toward game officials – in all sports – in recent years; on some occasions, though infrequently, there have been some instances of violence in these negative interactions. Jones was a coach of the Mattapan Patriots in a game against the Malden Pop Warner Cyclones U-14 team on Sunday afternoon. According to police, toward the end of the game Abruzzese, who has been officiating Pop Warner youth football and other levels for 25 years, threw a penalty flag against a Mattapan player for a helmet-to-helmet hit, a 15-year personal foul infraction. Then, according to police reports, a number of Mattapan coaches began “screaming obscenities,” according to the referees (three were officiating at the time). When Abruzzese turned around, he was “blindsided” and hit in the chest by a ball thrown hard by the coach, Jones. According to police, Abruzzese said the football Jones threw at him hit him in the center of his chest and the impact “caused him to kneel over from the pain.” According to reports, two other referees said they saw the coach throw the football hard at Abruzzese and hit him in the chest. A third referee told police that he didn’t see the throw, but saw the football hit off Abruzzese before he fell down to the ground. In the Malden police report, the coach apparently believed the “ref was making bad calls” and the “other team was cheating,” causing him to become upset.

Page 12 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, September 30, 2022 Sen. Lewis to host Community Conversation on reproductive justice and freedom S enator Jason Lewis is pleased to announce that he will be hosting a Community Conversation on the topic of reproductive justice and freedom. With the Supreme Court having overturned Roe v Wade, more than half of the states across the country have already, or are expected to, ban or severely restrict access to abortion care. In Massachusetts, the state legislature has taken decisive action to protect and expand access to reproductive healthcare, but there is still more that needs to be done. “Community Conversation: The Fight for Reproductive Justice and Freedom” will take place on Tuesday, October 11, from 6:30-8:00 p.m. The event will be live-streamed at Facebook.com/ SenJasonLewis – and a recording will also be available after the event. Senator Lewis will be joined by a distinguished panel of experts, including Claire Teylouni, Director of Government Affairs at Reproductive Equity Now; Dr. Erin Tracy Bradley, MD, MPH, FACOG, Associate Professor in Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproductive Biology at Harvard Medical School; and Katherine Rushfirth, CNM, FACNM, Policy Director at the Neighborhood Birth Center. Senator Lewis and the panelists will explore issues ranging from access to abortion and other reproductive health services to reducing maternal health disparities in Massachusetts. They will discuss concrete ways that we can tackle these issues and advance greater reproductive justice and equity in our communities and the Commonwealth. After opening remarks from each panelist, there will be ample time for audience questions and discussion. If you have any questions about this event or need further masenate.gov or 617-722-1206.

The IRS is hoping to return U nder IRS Notice 2022-36 released by the IRS in August, taxpayers will receive automatic relief from failure to file penalties for calendar years 2019 and 2020. Over 1.6million taxpayers have already received late filing penalty notices and many have already paid the balances due. The IRS expects to issue refund checks approximating $1.2 billion. The abatement of penalties will be automatic. Taxpayers are not required to request abatement of these penalties. The IRS should have made payment of these refunds to taxpayers by the end of September. The IRS has been so backed up since the pandemic, don’t be surprised if they send out checks well into October or even November. All 2019 and 2020 tax returns will need to be filed by September 30, 2022 in order to receive the relief from the failure to file penalties. This relief granted by the Internal Revenue Service is inback to normal for the 2023 tax filing season. It has been next to impossible to reach the IRS by phone. Even the Priority Hotline dedicated to CPA’s and enrolled agents has been nearly impossible to get through to over the past two years. The types of tax returns eligible for relief would be Form 1040, 1041, 1120, 1120-S, 1065, 990, 990-PF, 990-T and several others. Another reason for the penalty relief is that additions to tax or penalties for failure to timely file returns continued to accrue during periods of postponed filing dates for both 2019 and 2020 under the presidential emergency declaration in March of 2020 in response to the pandemic. The AICPA and other groups and firms have repeatedly advocated that the IRS provide failure to file and other penalty relief under procedures similar to those for a first-time abatement administrative waiver, but based upon the COVID-19 pandemic as reasonable cause for the failure.

(September 28, 2022) – Kane’s Donuts is proud to announce its participation in Bakes for Breast Cancer’s signature event – Bakes for Breast Cancer Massachusetts – returning for its twenty-third year, which helps raise funds and awareness for breast cancer research. Bakeries, cafés, pastry shops and restaurants throughout Massachusetts will participate during this year’s fundraiser from Friday, October 7 through Thursday, October 13, 2022. All establishments will either dedicate 100% of its sales from one of their signature desserts (or 50% from the sales of its entire dessert list) back to Bakes for Breast Cancer Massachusetts. “We are on a mission to end breast cancer for good, one sweet treat at a time,” said Bakes for Breast Cancer Founder Carol Sneider. “We’re excited to see how Bakes keeps evolving, and we’re beyond grateful for our partners to support us even during these tough times so we can help eradicate breast cancer once and for all.” There are two ways to participate in Boston Bakes for Breast Cancer Massachusetts – establishments can offer one designated dessert where 100% of the proceeds go towards the Bakes for Breast Cancer, or offer their entire dessert roster where 50% of the proceeds goes back to the organization. Since its inception in 1999, Bakes for Breast Cancer has raised over 2 million dollars. To date, over 4,500 different bakeries, cafés, pastry shops, supermarkets, and restaurants have participated throughout annual events in Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Maine and Cape & Islands. Proceeds raised will benefit the nonprofit breast cancer organization Bakes for Breast Cancer which will support the research of Dr. Rachel Freedman. Dr. Freedman’s clinical trials will focus on treatment for older breast cancer patients, an area of research that has been vastly under subsidized. About Bakes for Breast Cancer Massachusetts: Bakes for Breast Cancer Massachusetts is an annual “sweet” to raise funds for breast cancer research and care where hundreds of restaurants, bakeries, cafés and retail shops throughout Massachusetts participate by designating all sales of one specific desert, or fifty percent of proceeds from their entire dessert menu, to breast cancer care and research.

On April 10, 2021, Travis was critically injured by an improvised explosive device (IED) during a routine patrol in Afghanistan and spent 19 months at Walter Reed. After his recovery, Travis attended an adaptive sports camp in Colorado and realized the need for a such a place where a veteran, and their entire family could relax, reconnect, and find strength. Born out of this idea, the Travis Mills Foundation Veterans’ Retreat was founded. Ginger Gilbert Ravella, Author, Military Wife, and Ambassador for the Gary Sinise Foundation. Ginger Gilbert Ravella is a military wife, Gold Star (widow), mother of five and stepmother of two. Her personal mission is to encourage anyone who seeks reconciliation and peace when life hurts the most and to continue to serve a nation by serving others.

She is remarried to another widower and USAF fighter pilot, Colonel (Ret) Jim Ravella, who lost his wife to breast cancer. Ginger currently resides in Nashville, Tenn., with her family. The goal of the roundtable series is to help reduce barriers for veterans by: • Supporting generational bonds between service veterans through stories of service and success; • Destigmatizing issues faced by veterans and asking for help; • Combating inaccurate perceptions of veterans by discussing the diverse experiences, challenges, and success of service members, veterans, and their families; and • Connecting veterans with valuable resources. “I know this is going to be a meaningful discussion,” said Karen Worcester, Executive Director, Wreaths Across America. “As everyone involved has a synergy of mission and a deep understanding of veterans’ needs and the needs of their families. We look forward to this opportunity to share these stories and the importance in addressing veterans’ healing.” You can listen to Wreaths Across America Radio’s 24/7 internet stream anytime and anywhere on the iHeart Radio app, Audacy app, TuneIn app, or at www.wreathsacrossamerica. org/radio.

When Malden High School second-year football Head Coach Witche Exilhomme put in his second-string offense with three minutes and change left in the first half on the road against Chelsea High on Friday, it was the first time the Golden Tornados team has been in that position in a league game in some years. But that is how it went on Friday, as Malden dominated the Red Devils on both sides of the ball, riding the legs of what is becoming a rock-solid, 1-2 running back punch of senior Mak Coulanges-Blaise (148 yds., 4 TDs) and junior Davin McGuffie (87 yds, 1 TD) on their way to a 32-12 victory. The victory upped Malden to 2-1 overall (1–0 Greater Boston League) heading into tonight’s GBL showdown vs. Somerville High (6:00 p.m., Macdonald Stadium, Malden). If Malden defeats Somerville and improves to 3-1, it would be the first time to have three wins this early in the season in many years for the Tornados. Second-year Malden High Football Head Coach Witche Exilhomme fired up the troops in his postgame talk following Friday night’s win over Chelsea. (Steve Freker Photo) MHS headman Coach Exilhomme shared that while he and his team fully expected to win and perform well on offense and defense, it was still quite satisfying to see hard work pay off for his players. “The players who did the best tonight for us put in the work in the offseason,” Coach Exilhomme said. “They deserve to get paid off like this. They deserve to win.” While Malden’s offense perLed by the standout play of senior co-captain Zach Pan (shown at left; 3 sacks, 8 tackles) and junior safety Felix Da Costa, (shown at right; 2 interceptions, 1 fumble recovery), the Malden High starting defense held host Chelsea scoreless and to one first down in Friday night’s 32-12 win on the road. (Steve Freker Photo) colated from the get-go, it was the defense that actually set the tone for the night. Under an overcast sky, wind-whipping conditions dropped the temperature to well under 50 degrees at times. Leading the way were senior co-captain Zach Pan, at defensive end, and junior safety Felix Junior Da Costa. Sophomore co-captain linebacker James Hyppolite also had a solid game for Malden with two sacks and eight tackles. Both Pan and DaCosta had their best games in a Tornado uniform. Pan, a 6-2, 210 defensive end, might as well have been renting space in the Chelsea backfield. Pan registered three sacks: two on the Chelsea quarterback and a third on the main Red Devil running back. All of those statistics came in the first half when Malden was dominating in all three phases of the game. Da Costa also had one QB sack and he, too, had his best game of his Tornado career. Da Costa picked off two passes and also had one fumble recovery on special teams. Malden scored after each of Da Costa’s turnovers. “Our entire defensive unit executed our game plan very well. Zach [Pan] has showed real leadership all season long and it was nice to see him in the spotlight,” Coach Exilhomme said. “Felix [Junior Da Costa] is one of our top all-around athletes and he showed it tonight by creating some key turnovers.” Offensively, Chelsea had no answer for the running of Blaise behind the Tornado offensive line. Blaise scored touchdowns on each of the first two Malden drives. McGuffie also scored a rushing touchdown as did sophomore Kevin Exilhomme. Two other solid sophomores, quarterback Aidan Brett and split end Nathan Sullivan, hooked up for a 45-yard TD reception in the third quarter. Junior 6-5 split end Gabriel Vargas Cardoso had four receptions from Brett, including a 21yard TD catch. ***** EXTRA POINT KICKS: Friday’s matchup was the first time Malden has played Chelsea since the last time the Red Devils were a member of the Greater Boston League... in 1986!... With a victory on Friday, Malden High football would improve to 3-1 overall and surpass the win totals of the past five Tornado seasons... The last time Malden won more than two games was a 5-6 campaign under former Head Coach Bill Manchester in his debut season in 2016... The last time Malden started 3-1 (or better) was former Head Coach Joe Pappagallo’s last season in 2015, when Malden raced out at 4-0 before finishing at 6-4 overall. That was also Malden High’s last winning football season... With three more touchdowns against Chelsea Friday night, Malden High senior running back Mak Coulanges-Blaise now has scored 50 points and leads Eastern Mass. Division 3 in scoring... In comparison, after just three games, Blaise has scored more points combined than Malden High scored as a team all season... Somerville comes into this game with a new Head Coach – former longtime Belmont High defensive coordinator David Pereira – and a winless record (0-3, 0-2 Greater Boston League). Somerville opened the season with a 42-0 loss to non-leaguer North Quincy before dropping a 44-0 game to visiting Everett and then a 50-6 loss to Lynn Classical at Manning Field in Lynn last week... Two players on the Malden roster will be reuniting with a lot of former teammates at Friday’s game; junior offensive tackle Jerrell Calixte and junior defensive back Felix Da Costa both grew up in Somerville and played all of their Pop Warner football in that city before they both moved to Malden before the start of their freshman years of high school. Both Calixte and Da Costa have played very well for the Tornados so far this season. Da Costa had a very big game in Friday’s win over Chelsea with two interceptions and a fumble recovery.

Page 18 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, September 30, 2022 avy eniiooravvy S iorn or avvyavy vvy io iori by Jim Miller Free Online Hearing Tests You Can Take at Home Dear Savvy Senior, Can you recommend any good online hearing tests? My husband has hearing loss, but I can’t get him to go in and get his hearing checked, so I thought a simple online test could help him recognize he has a problem. What can you tell me? Loud Talking Linda Dear Linda, There’s actually a growing number of very good online and appbased hearing tests available that will let your husband check his hearing on his own. These tests are a quick and convenient option for the millions of Americans that have mild to moderate hearing loss but often ignore it, or don’t want to go through the hassle or expense of visiting an audiologist for a hearing exam. Who Should Test? Hearing loss for most people develops gradually over many years of wear and tear, which is the reason many people don’t realize they actually have a hearing problem. Anyone who has diffi culty hearing or understanding what people say, especially in noisier environments or over the phone. Or, if you need a higher volume of music or TV than other people, should take a few minutes to test their hearing. Self-Hearing Tests Online and app-based hearing tests can serve as a great screening tool. They are not meant to be a diagnosis, but rather to give you an idea of how bad your hearing loss is and what can be done about it. For most do-it-yourself hearing tests, you’ll be advised to wear ear headphones or earbuds and sit in a quiet spot. You also need to know that there are two diff erent types of tests available. One type is known as pure-tone testing, where tones are played in decreasing volumes to determine your specifi c level of hearing loss. And the other type is known as speech-in-noise or digits-in-noise (DIN) where you’ll be asked to identify words, numbers, or phrases amid background noise. Where to Test If your husband uses a smartphone or tablet, two of my favorite app-based hearing tests are the hearWHO app created by the World Health Organization, and the Mimi Hearing Test app. Both apps are free to use and are available through the App Store and Google Play. HearWHO allows users to check their hearing status and monitor it over time using a DIN test, while Mimi uses pure-tone and masked threshold tests to give you a detailed picture of your hearing abilities. There are also a wide variety of online hearing tests your husband can take on a computer. Some top online tests – all off ered by hearing aid manufacturers – for speech-in-noise or DIN tests can be accessed at ReSound (resound.com/en-us/online-hearing-test) and Mircle Ear (miracle-ear.com/online-hearing-test). And some good online hearing tests for pure-tone testing are available by Signia (signia.net/en/service/hearing-test); Ergo (eargo.com/hearing-health/hearing-check); and MD Hearing Aid (mdhearingaid.com/hearing-test). All of these hearing tests are completely free to use and take less than fi ve minutes to complete. What to do with Results If the tests indicate your husband has hearing loss, it’s best to think of that as a starting point. He should take results to his doctor or an audiologist for further evaluation. Many insurance providers and Medicare Advantage plans cover routine hearing exams, however original Medicare does not. If his hearing loss is mild to moderate, he should look into the new over-the-counter (OTC) hearing aids, which are available this fall online and at retailers like Best Buy, Walgreens and CVS. OTC hearing aids don’t require a prescription or medical examination for purchase and they’re much more aff ordable than traditional hearing aids you buy through an audiologist or a licensed hearing instrument specialist.

THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, September 30, 2022 Page 19 Your Hometown News Delivered! Mystic Valley Lady Eagles Soccer team tops Northeast, 5-0 By Emily Brennan L ast week Mystic Valley Regional Charter School’s girls’ soccer team defeated Northeast, 5-0, for another victory. The Eagles took command of the match right away with three new starters; one of them made an immediate impact. Reilly Hickey tallied the first goal in the game with an assist from Katie Guo, to give MVRCS an early lead. Alice Jones also tallied an assist, finding Lucia Antonucci and Reilly Hickey for more first half goals, which led to a 5-0 halftime result and Hickey’s first hat trick of the season. The second half would continue with the Lady Eagles dominance in the match: controlling possession and creating scoring chances. The Mystic Valley defenders, who were led by Bailey DeLeire and Audrey Wherry, showed confidence in front of the net, while Caroline Crowley came up big with a few important saves to secure the clean sheet.

Reilly Hickey made three goals during last week’s game against Northeast Metro Tech. “The timing of this match was so important for the team,” said Head Coach Matthew Offner. “Every player played a significant role for us in our victory over Northeast, and several players made a case for getting more time on the pitch moving forward as we look forward to our most challenging week of the season so far. I was pleased with the team’s focus and collective passing, in addition to how we worked together and encouraged one another throughout the match.” On Sept. 26, MVRCS faced Lowell Catholic and won, 1-0.
