Shelter kitchen theft prevalent, report says

Shelter kitchen theft prevalent, report says

By Stephen Smith
Globe Staff / February 23, 2011

A culture of theft and lax supervision pervaded a kitchen operated by the city of Boston that feeds 2,000 meals a day to the homeless and city workers, an internal investigation has concluded.

The review by the top lawyer at the Boston Public Health Commission found evidence that workers at the kitchen on Long Island were skimming city-purchased food — including steaks, turkeys, hot dogs, hamburgers, and cakes — for their own private weddings, tailgate and birthday parties.

The review, obtained yesterday by the Globe through a public records request, also said that one worker stole $1,600 in cash from the Serving Our Selves kitchen, widely known by its SOS acronym.

Mass. lowers state ID age from 16 to 14

Mass. lowers state ID age from 16 to 14
By Associated Press  |   Wednesday, November 24, 2010  |  http://www.bostonherald.com  |  Local Coverage

BOSTON — A new Massachusetts law has dropped the age for getting a state-issued identification card from 16 to 14, allowing everyone old enough to get a worker’s permit to also get an ID establishing their name, address and date of birth.

Rosalie Montalvo of Worcester, who turns 15 on Monday, likes the change. He says it’s good to have identification on him when he looks for a job. He also calls it "training for the real world," since adults need to carry ID all the time.

The identification cards cost $25. Those issued to people under 21 are printed vertically, rather than horizontally, so they could never be used to buy liquor.

Applicants under 18 must have a parental signature along with a valid birth certificate and Social Security card.

The cards could also help police enforce curfew laws.
