As tens of thousands of rowers descend on the Charles River for the Head of the Charles Regatta, a father-son duo have a unique advantage – one of them is blind.For a blind rower like Dan Berlin, feel and sound is already the world around him.“You have one person either in the bow or a coxswain in the boat looking forward and everyone else just kind of follows the motion of the boat so it’s kind of feel and sound,” Dan Berlin said.Dan and his son Adrien have been rowing together for eight years. Dan, diagnosed with a degenerative eye disorder when he was a child, started rowing in their hometown of Fort Collins, Colorado when Adrien joined his high school team.“It’s just a great thing we started doing together because I was like ‘hey I’m doing it, I think you’d think this is cool, why don’t you do it,'” Adrien said, “and it just kind of evolved into something that the two of us have really bonded over.”The training is intense, and the pair race in a doubles boat, which c...

Christmas comes early for the Boston City Council.Councilors continue to hand out hefty, taxpayer-funded pay bonuses to staffers in a practice that smacks of old school politics excess.Councilor-at-large Michael Flaherty, who is retiring at the end of the year, this week doled out nearly $25,000 worth of bonuses to four staffers, records show.That includes a $9,885 one-time bonus to staffer Paul Sullivan, $6,115 bonuses to aides Clare Brooks and Mary Karski and a $2,519 bonus to assistant Tricia Kalayjian, according to records.Flaherty isn’t the only one giving bonuses but it adds a certain sting when a councilor hands them out a few months before leaving office. Councilor Tania Fernandes Anderson tried to give one staffer — her sister — a $7,000 bonus until she was caught by the Ethics Commission.How many people would like to get a $10,000 or $7,000 bonus? A lot of people work hard, but don’t get handed big taxpayer funded bonuses.They get on the malfunctioning T ...

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 11:10:36 GMT

A recent viral TikTok that purported to show a bedbug on the TTC has been spooking Toronto residents more than usual, but experts say it’s not unusual for the critters to be spotted in a high-traffic area.It could also include hotels, convention centres, restaurants, public transportation, movie theatres, doctors offices, you name it,” said Bernie Grafe of Orkin Canada, a pest control company.Anxiety over bedbugs began to rise following Paris Fashion Week last month when viral videos of the bugs began popping up despite officials’ reassurance there was no resurgence of cases.Many were worried that the bugs would hitch a ride on those travelling back home.
