Shirley Leung of the Boston Globe, Chris Dempsey of No Boston Olympics and Peter Howe of NECN talk about the dashing of Boston's 2024 Olympic Dreams. Plus, we've said no to the Olympics -- but in the process, have we learned about what we should be saying "yes" to?
CEO Corner, Sunday Aug. 2, 8:30pm, also on NECN
Fraser Cameron, CEO of Velcro Companies, will be the guest.

Channel 7 -- WHDH:
Urban Update, Sunday, Aug. 2, 11:30am
Boston Herald columnist Kevin Peterson and Beverley Morgan-Welch, executive director of the Museum of African American History, will discuss the 50th anniversary of the 1965 voting rights act with host Byron Barnett. Evan Falchuk, former gubernatorial candidate, will stop by to talk about the end of Boston 2024. Finally, Barnett will discuss El Sistema, the musical program created in Venezuela, and its Summer Academy in Massachusetts. 

Setting the stage for an Internet sales tax
In the not too distant future, we'll look back fondly on the days we could buy stuff online without paying a sales tax. Congress is weighing a bill to allow states to collect sales tax from remote online sellers, and sooner or later the taxman will come to the Internet in full force. Remote sellers have avoided collecting and remitting the taxes based on the old-fashioned notion that a business without a physical presence in the state does not have to collect sales tax. When Congress enables states to collect online sales taxes (a concept that seems to have bipartisan support), you can bet Massachusetts will -- an estimated $150-200 million is at stake. And it seems only sensible that if a Massachusetts resident pays 6.25 percent sales tax for a golf club at Golfsmith down the street that he also pay the same tax rate for buying a club on eBay from a seller in Pasadena.
The Senate wants the Department of Revenue to be ready to collect those taxes when state tax rates apply to all Internet sales. Republicans see it as setting the stage for a tax increase, although technically individuals are required to remit a "use" tax to the state when they buy online goods and aren't charged a sales tax. "The measure before us has the impact of a tax increase because things that aren't being taxed will be taxed. We should not be ceding to Congress tax decisions that rightly remain here in Massachusetts," Sen. Bruce Tarr, Senate minority leader, said in a statement.
Massachusetts Amazon shoppers have been paying sales taxes for a few years after Amazon gained a physical presence in the Commonwealth following its purchase of robotics company Kiva Systems in 2012. Shira Schoenberg of MassLive has the story.

Public records reform, insto-presto
Gov. Baker has been paying attention to the fiasco that is the result of a wet noodle of a public records law, issuing an edict for the executive branch yesterday, a much needed set of rules for all agencies. The new policy speeds up the timeline for receiving public records, reduces costs, and requires agencies to designate a person to handle requests. Meanwhile, public records reform legislation is pending at the State House, and may get a vote in September. The Globe's Todd Wallack, who has led the charge among area journalists in exposing the weakness of the law, has the update. http://bit.ly/1IunWCP

Venture capitalist comes to the T
In a move that only a governor who used to dabble at a venture capital firm could make, Gov. Baker has brought on a veteran VC to share responsibility for running the MBTA. Brian Shortsleeve, who used to work at General Catalyst, where Baker briefly worked after his first run for governor, will oversee the finances at the T, and interim GM Frank DePaola will handle operations. Nicole Dungca has more in the Globe.http://bit.ly/1DT7KWc

Wynn offers to subsidize Orange Line
Steve Wynn is offering $7.5 million over 15 years to underwrite the cost of adding more trains to the MBTA's Orange Line during certain hours, the Globe's Jon Chesto reports. The subsidy, said to be the first of its kind for the T, was revealed in an environmental finding earlier this month, and a consultant for Wynn tells Chesto the extra trains will benefit businesses along the entire length of the Orange Line and shorten passenger wait times.The filing also said Wynn would pay for shuttle buses to take employees and gamblers to and from nearby T stops and that Wynn will fund a study to determine if it's feasible to build a pedestrian bridge over the Mystic River to the Assembly Square T stop. The improvements aren't likely to end debate over the traffic mess that critics say Wynn's proposal will create in Sullivan Square, which prompted the city of Boston to file suit against Wynn and the Mass Gaming Commission.  http://bit.ly/1JzrkwU 

Track operator eyes Suffolk Downs 
Meanwhile, some potentially good news for Boston area resort casino license runner-up Suffolk Downs and fans of live horse racing. According to the Globe, the Stronach Group, which operates a number of race tracks nationally, including Pimlico, would be interested in bringing live racing back to the track. "Boston is a very lucrative market and we're interested," said Tim Ritvo, the firm's COO. "We're open to anything, but it seems like a stretch to get it done immediately." One possible hurdle for live racing: Suffolk is already doing a brisk business with video simulcasts, the Globe says, thanks to an update to state law that allows them to simulcast year-round by offering just a single day of live racing annually. http://bit.ly/1I6NnsC

Obama taps Scott for Transportation Board - will Republicans object?
On the hottest day of the year, a refreshing reminder of one of the harshest winters in memory: President Obama Thursday nominated former MBTA General Manager Beverly Scott to a seat on the National Transportation Safety Board. But the Herald reports that at least one Republican lawmaker is already questioning the move, citing Scott's troubled tenure atop the T. Scott, who announced she would resign in February amid signs she would be ousted after the T melted down in the face of a series of winter storms, is in line to earn $155,000 a year if the Senate confirms her appointment. http://bit.ly/1gsWBGR 

Holyoke Election All about V-Word (Hint: it's Not Voters) 
Holyoke's city election in November promises to be a barn-burner, with close to 50 candidates stepping forward to vie for mayor, city council and school board seats. But more than three months before election day, the campaign already has a controversy reaching well beyond the Paper City. According to MassLive, it all began last month, when the City Council underwent sensitivity training. Shortly afterward, Mike Franco -- a candidate for an at-large seat on the council -- took his criticisms to social media, calling the training "iron-fisted indoctrination" and writing: "Jossie wants all of us to hold hands and talk about her vagina. I say, no thank you." Jossie is Ward 4 City Councilor Jossie M. Valentin, who Franco complains staged a Spanish-language version of "The Vagina Monologues" in a city park near a war memorial. "I am not the one who wants to continue to talk about genitalia. I'm a private and modest person believe it or not," Franco said Thursday, as the fallout from the comments grew to include other candidates choosing sides and making statements of their own. "Franco owes the voters -- especially women -- an explanation as to what his intent was with these posts and comments," Valentin told MassLive in response. The controversy has become a cause celebre to some on social media, helping extend the story's reach. Earlier in the week, the Mayor of Salem, Kim Driscoll, said she would be donating $100 to Valentin's re-election campaign. http://bit.ly/1DeMYoY 
Also, speaking of Holyoke, read Matt Szafranski's take in Western Mass Politics & Insight on what promises to be a very crowded race for city council. http://bit.ly/1KF182G

New commuting option: Park&Pedal
Park your car, then hop on a bike to pedal into the city. That's the idea behind what is being termed the first "park and pedal" program in the nation. State officials will join David Montague of Montague Corp., a bicycle design co., to inaugurate the program today at Christian Herter Park along Soldier's Field Road in Brighton. Montague has personally done the park and bike for years, and convinced state officials to scale a program. Other Park&Pedal lots include: Franklin Park and Tenean Beach in Boston, Arsenal Project in Watertown, Daly Rink In Newton, Mystic River Reservation in Medford and Cronin Rink in Revere. Marie Szaniszlo of the Herald has the story.  http://bit.ly/1VRa8rC

CLG: Ohio Woman's Death in Police Custody Being Investigated, At least 192 labs 'accidentally' received live anthrax, Pentagon, Israel, Not Iran, Started Middle East Nuclear Arms Race, 70 people vaccinated for whopping cough still contracted infection in Reno County, KS




News Updates from CLG
30 July 2015
 
Previous edition: Holistic Hate Crimes? 8 Florida Doctors Dead and 5 Missing in Past Month 
U.S. Navy investigates report of cancer cluster at Guantanamo | 27 July 2015 | The U.S. Navy is investigating a complaint that seeks the evacuation of civilian and military lawyers from parts of the U.S. base in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, following reports of cancer cases among personnel working on the trials of detainees prisoners there. At least seven civilians and military members who worked on detainee trials [sic] at Guantanamo Bay have been diagnosed with cancer, according to the complaint, which was filed with the U.S. Defense Department's Office of the Inspector General. The complaint calls on American military officials to remove personnel from court facilities on the base and test them and the base itself for carcinogens. The complaint claims that an unusually large number of relatively healthy and young people who worked at the base have been diagnosed with cancer. [As Shakespeare said--and the US government is apparently doing: "The first thing we do, let's kill all the lawyers."]
At least 192 labs 'accidentally' received live anthrax - Pentagon | 29 July 2015 | The Pentagon has admitted that a US Army lab 'accidentally' shipped live anthrax to at least 192 laboratories over the past decade. The figure is more than double the number the agency reported in June. The agency said on Monday that the list now includes labs in all 50 states, as well as Guam, Puerto Rico, the US Virgin Islands and Washington, DC...Seven foreign countries also received the shipments, including Australia, Canada, Germany, Italy, Japan, South Korea, and the UK, according to the Department of Defense’s Laboratory Review site.
U.S. military sees more use of laser, microwave weapons | 28 July 2015 | The U.S. military has made strides in developing lasers, microwaves and other directed energy weapons, and could soon use them more widely, top armed forces officials and U.S. lawmakers told an industry conference on Tuesday. The officials described weapons that are in various stages of development and testing by the U.S. Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force and Army, but said more work was needed to scale up the technology for larger weapons, develop tactics for their use, and ensure sufficient funding. The military has been working on such weapons for decades, but says many technology challenges have finally been addressed.
Part of Pentagon email network taken down over suspicious activity | 28 July 2015 | An unclassified email network used by Army General Martin Dempsey and other members of the U.S. military's Joint Staff has been taken off line because of suspicious activity, a Pentagon spokeswoman said on Tuesday. Army Lieutenant Colonel Valerie Henderson said the unclassified email network for all users on the Joint Staff was taken offline by the Defense Department because of suspicious activity noted over the weekend and is "currently down."
U.S. to parole convicted Israeli spy Pollard on Nov. 21 | 28 July 2015 | Jonathan Pollard, a former U.S. Navy intelligence analyst convicted of spying for Israel, will be released on parole on Nov. 21 after 30 years in prison, a federal parole board ruled on Tuesday. Pollard's planned release, which was quickly welcomed by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, would remove a longstanding irritant in U.S.-Israel relations at a time of increased friction between the two close allies over President Barack Obama's landmark nuclear deal with Iran. The U.S. Justice Department helped smooth the way for the freeing of Pollard, who was already eligible for mandatory parole in November, by declining to raise objections that could have delayed his release, Pollard's attorneys said.
Israel, Not Iran, Started Middle East Nuclear Arms Race | 29 July 2015 | The debate about the P5+1 agreement with Iran on its nuclear program has already produced a storm of angry rhetoric and a tsunami of opinion pieces. But one issue is notably absent from the debate: the fact that Israel has a nuclear weapons arsenal and sophisticated delivery systems that are decades ahead of anything Iran could develop in the foreseeable future. Iran should be constrained by a global regime from getting the bomb, but the notion that Israel is a weak powerless state like Czechoslovakia in 1938 is ludicrous. The American intelligence community first detected the development of the Israeli nuclear weapons program through U-2 overhead imagery at the end of the 1950s.
Counter-terrorism police arrest woman at Birmingham airport on suspicion of 'travelling to Syria to engage in terrorism' | 29 July 2015 | A 30-year-old woman has been arrested at Birmingham Airport by Counter Terrorism police on suspicion of travelling to Syria to engage in terrorist acts. She was travelling with three children. The woman, from Leicester, was arrested by officers from the West Midlands Counter Terrorism Unit at 9:40am, police said. Her home and a second address she has been associated with is being searched by police.
Exhausted forest firefighters refuse to sing O Canada for Harper | 25 July 2015 | Prime Minister Stephen Harper is getting slammed on social media for having a group of front-line firefighters pulled out of the smoky hills near this bustling B.C. city so they could pose with him for a patriotic, pre-election picture. But things didn't go quite as planned for Harper's advance team of organizers. The selected firefighters were so tired and annoyed that they just silently watched Harper as he waved his arms around like a conductor and tried to get them to sing along with him in a rousing chorus of O Canada...And none of them accepted the "Canada's Better With Harper" t-shirts that the PM's bodyguards were handing out.
70 people vaccinated for whopping cough still contracted infection in Reno County, KS | 27 July 2015 | Reno County health officials are taking steps to help stall the spread of a whooping cough outbreak before school starts. The county has more than 70 suspected whooping cough cases. And The Hutchinson News reports  that as of Friday, Reno County had 41 confirmed or probable cases of whooping cough, which accounts for 20 percent of all cases in the state. That was up from 18 on June 29...The district tells us all of the people who've contracted it have been vaccinated.
Health Department: Legionnaires' Disease Outbreak in South Bronx Sickens 31 | 29 July 2015 | The New York City Department of Health is trying to get to the bottom of an outbreak of Legionnaires' disease in the South Bronx. There have been 31 cases reported there since July 10, officials said. Two people with the disease have died, but it's not clear if Legionnaires' was the cause of death, CBS2 reported.
Mers virus: two suspected cases discovered in Manchester | 27 July 2015 | (UK) Manchester Royal Infirmary temporarily closes its A&E department as it investigates two cases of suspected Middle Eastern Respiratory Virus Syndrome (Mers). Manchester Royal Infirmary reopened its doors on Monday afternoon, having closed it earlier in the day after two patients were suspected of carrying the potentially fatal Mers virus. A statement from the hospital said: "This afternoon, we confirmed that we are currently investigating two patients for suspected Middle Eastern Respiratory Virus Syndrome - Coronavirus Infection (MERS-COV).
Number on Reunion Island debris corresponds to Boeing 777 component | 30 July 2015 | Boeing investigators are confident that debris found on a remote island in the Indian Ocean comes from a 777 aircraft, according to a source close to the investigation. An international team of aviation experts is trying to determine if that airplane part comes from Malaysia Airlines flight 370, a Boeing 777 that disappeared in March 2014 with 239 people on board. A match might help solve the mystery of what happened to that that airplane, since no other 777s in the world are unaccounted for, according to the Aviation Safety Network, an online database of flight incidents. People cleaning a beach found the debris Wednesday on Reunion, a French overseas territory in the western Indian Ocean.
Debris looks like Boeing 777, could be MH370, says source | 29 July 2015 | Apparent airplane debris found off the coast of Reunion island, a French department in the western Indian Ocean, is being examined to see if it is connected to the 2014 disappearance of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370, a member of the French air force in Reunion said Wednesday. The debris was found off the coast of St. Andre, a community on the island, according to Adjutant Christian Retournat. Officials from Boeing, which built the 777 that was MH370, conducted an initial assessment of the debris using photographs and their findings suggest the debris is consistent in appearance with a Boeing 777's flaperon, which is a piece of the plane's wing, a source close to the investigation told CNN.
Shell's profits fall as protests mount over Arctic drilling [Awesome!] | 30 July 2015 | Dozens of activists with Greenpeace and Rising Tide blockaded the mouth of Portland’s Willamette River Thursday, dangling from a bridge and swarming the waters -- all in an effort to prevent Shell from launching a ship it needs to begin advanced drilling for oil in the Alaskan Arctic. The bold plan seems to working, too. As the sun bobbed up over the Pacific, one of the activists on the bridge shot footage of Shell's ice breaker appearing to turn back as cheers erupted from a group of supporters. Under the terms of Shell's drilling plan, [insanely] approved in May by the Obama administration, the company has to have the ship on site because it carries a special Arctic-ready spill containment system.
Activists Hang From Oregon's St. Johns Bridge to Protest Shell's Arctic Oil Drilling | 29 July 2015 | At least a dozen climbers with Greenpeace were dangling from a Portland, Oregon, bridge on Wednesday morning -- and threatened to do so for days -- in protest of Shell's scheduled launch of a ship for Arctic oil exploration. The stunt on the St. Johns Bridge comes after protesters gathered in a Portland park Tuesday evening, and planned to drop kayaks in the water in a bid to stop the Royal Dutch Shell from leaving port. The ship was scheduled Wednesday to depart for Alaskan waters.
Cecil the lion's killer donated $5,000 to Mitt Romney [Well, knock me over with a medium-sized feather!] | 29 July 2015 | The Minnesota dentist who authorities say killed a beloved Zimbabwe lion named Cecil donated to Mitt Romney's 2012 presidential campaign. Federal Elections Commission (FEC) forms show Walter James Palmer, a dentist in Eden Prairie, Minn., donated 5,000 to the Romney campaign in 2012. Palmer also donated 250 to former Rep. Jim Ramstad (R-Minn.) in 1990 and 250 to Ramstad in 1992.
American accused of killing African lion convicted in '06 bear hunt | 28 July 2015 | An avid Minnesota hunter accused of illegally killing a protected lion in Zimbabwe has a felony on his record related to shooting a black bear in Wisconsin, according to federal court records. [Sociopath] Walter Palmer, 55, of the Minneapolis suburb of Eden Prairie, pleaded guilty in 2008 to making false statements to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service about a black bear he fatally shot in western Wisconsin. Palmer had a permit to hunt but shot the animal outside the authorized zone in 2006, then tried to pass it off as being killed elsewhere, according to court documents.
American Hunter [Terrorist] Killed Cecil, Beloved Lion That Was Lured Out of Its Sanctuary --Walter Palmer was convicted in a 2006 black bear hunt, too. Too bad Cecil -- or anyone -- was unable to shoot this sociopath, *first.* | 28 July 2015 | Cecil, a 13-year-old lion, wandered out of his sanctuary in a national park in Zimbabwe this month, following the scent of a potential snack. At the other end of Cecil's search was a lure, placed there by hunters who, conservationists say, wanted their prey to cross into unprotected territory so they could kill him. Cecil, well known to those who visited the Hwange National Park in western Zimbabwe for his jet black mane, was beheaded, according to conservation officials. His corpse was left to rot in the sun. Zimbabwean officials said that Dr. Walter J. Palmer, an American hunter known for killing big game with a bow and arrow, killed Cecil, and was being sought on poaching charges. [Sign petition: Demand Justice for 'Cecil the Lion' in Zimbabwe.]
Trump leads Republican presidential race with 25 percent: Reuters-Ipsos poll | 29 July 2015 | Billionaire Donald Trump has taken a commanding lead in the race for the 2016 U.S. Republican presidential nomination with the support of 25 percent in a Reuters/Ipsos poll, giving him a double-digit advantage over nearest rival Jeb Bush. The poll shows Bush, the former Florida governor, trailing at 12 percent.  It is a huge jump for Trump, who announced his candidacy for the November 2016 election six weeks ago - and this despite the criticism political rivals leveled at him for remarks this month belittling the military service of Senator John McCain [after McCain belittled Trump's supporters, first], the party's candidate in 2008.
Former Va. Gov. Jim Gilmore Files Paperwork for Presidential Run | 29 July 2015 | Former Virginia Gov. Jim Gilmore has filed paperwork with the Federal Election Commission to run for president of the United States. His entry into the 2016 race makes him the 17th major Republican candidate for president. The Republican said back at the beginning of July that he planned a White House run.
 
GOP congressman launches bid to oust John Boehner as House speaker | 28 July 2015 | A Republican congressman has filed a request to oust House Speaker John A. Boehner (R-Ohio) in a new and unusual challenge to his leadership from the GOP's right flank. Rep. Mark Meadows (R-N.C.) on Tuesday evening filed a "motion to vacate the chair," which, if successful, would force the election of a new speaker. Such a challenge has never before succeeded in the House, and only once before -- 105 years ago -- has it been attempted.
 
Bernie Sanders criticizes Koch 'open borders' low-wage labor proposal at Hispanic Chamber of Commerce | 30 July 2015 | Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) found himself at odds with some immigration reform advocates Thursday, defending his 2007 vote against a comprehensive immigration bill and telling an audience hosted by the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce that "open borders" were a threat to American jobs. "There is a reason that Wall Street likes immigration reform," Sanders said. "What I think they're interested in is seeing a process by which we can bring low-wage labor into this county." [*Exactly.*] Sanders was asked if he could favor "sharply raising the level of immigration we permit, even up to a level of open borders." The Vermont senator vehemently disagreed. "That's a Koch brothers proposal," he said. "What right-wing people [and Obama] in this country would love is an open-border policy. Bring in all kinds of people, work for $2 or $3 an hour, that would be great for them. I don't believe in that."
 
MSNBC Cancels 'The Cycle,' 'NOW With Alex Wagner,' and 'The Ed Show' [but keeps FBI snitch, corporatist fraud and TPP-p*mp Al Sharpton?!] | 30 July 2015 | Multiple reports today seem to confirm what Mediaite first reported last week: MSNBC is officially pulling the plug on 'The Cycle.' The reports also confirm Joe Concha's reporting that 'NOW With Alex Wagner' and 'The Ed Show' have been axed...Chuck Todd will anchor a show in the 5 pm slot.
 
University cop indicted for murder in shooting of motorist Samuel DuBose | 29 July 2015 | University of Cincinnati Police Officer Ray Tensing was indicted Wednesday on a murder charge in the shooting death of Samuel DuBose. If convicted, Tensing could go to prison for life, Hamilton County Prosecutor Joe Deters said in a news conference. Deters played body camera footage of the traffic stop shooting that appeared to contradict Tensing's version of what happened. The prosecutor, who said he was shocked when he first saw the video, was adamant DuBose, who is black, had not acted aggressively toward Tensing, who is white.
 
Police officer indicted for murder in fatal shooting of Samuel Dubose | 29 July 2015 | (OH) Authorities in Cincinnati have indicted a university police officer in the shooting death of an unarmed black man earlier this month. Police body camera footage depicting the fatal shooting will be released on Wednesday, as the city braces for a grand jury decision and more protests over the case. Samuel Dubose, 43, was fatally shot in the head by white officer Ray Tensing of the University of Cincinnati police department on 19 July. The incident occurred during a routine traffic stop after Tensing had pulled Dubose over for having a missing front license plate.
 
Ohio Woman's Death in Police Custody Being Investigated | 27 July 2015 | The death of a woman who died while in police custody, after a relatively minor arrest outside of Cleveland, is now being investigated, Ohio officials said Monday. Ralkina Jones, 37, was arrested on Friday July 24 after getting into a fight with her ex-husband in a Save-a-Lot grocery store parking lot, according to a police report. She was found unresponsive in her jail cell two days later and pronounced dead on Sunday morning, officials said.
