Defense attorneys ask high court for help from drug lab crisisA lawyer for the Massachu-setts public defenderscommittee pleaded with ajudge from the state’s highestcourt yesterday to intervenein the process that he said hascreated a mess in the trial-court system because of thefallout from the state drug labscandal.
Defense lawyers are askingthat the state’s high court de-
cide a consistent trial-courtprocess or come up with a so-lution to ease what they saidis a burden on the entire sys-tem, as the drug cases ofcountless defendants were al-legedly mishandled.
“The burden on us, theburden on the district attor-neys, the burden on thecourts is overwhelming,” saidRandy Gioia, deputy chief of
the Committee for PublicCounsel Services.
Gioia made the argumentduring a hearing beforeJustice Margot Botsford. Bots-ford heard arguments onthree cases all having to dowith the fallout from the al-leged misconduct by roguestate drug chemist AnnieDookhan. She is accused ofmishandling the drug
evidence samples of as manyas 34,000 defendants.Dookhan has pleaded notguilty to multiple charges ofobstruction of justice.
Botsford said she was notsure if she would refer thematter to the full Supreme Ju-dicial Court for decision andthat she needed more time tothink about the issue.

Hub’s own passedover, but Boston’snot bitterMedia from as far as Rhode Is-land and New York City cameto the church in the event thatarchdiocese of Boston headCardinal Sean O’Malley waselected pope, but that wasn’tthe case. O’Malley was at firstthought of as a long shot forpope because of his beingfrom the United States and hisbeing a Franciscan Capuchin.But as the conclave got under
way, O’Malley’s name circulat-ed as a possible candidate.
In a statement, O’Malleysaid he gave thanks to God forthe election of Pope Francis I.
Tomassi said he was “gluedto the TV” as the white smokecame from the chimney of theSistine Chapel. While he wasrooting for O’Malley, hewasn’t disappointed thatsomeone else was elected.
“It would have been nice tosee O’Malley [elected pope],but what are you going todo?” Tomassi said.

“At Caesarea Philippi, Jesus commissioned St.Peter the rock upon which the church wouldbe built. Pope Francis continues that missionin an increasingly secular culture, wheremany people have not come to know or haveforgotten that Jesus is our savior andredeemer.” O’MALLEY
“I want to see if hecan attract moreyoung people tothe Catholicreligion.” TOMASSI
“The world willgreatly benefitfrom Pope Franciswitnessing Jesus’call for us to loveGod and love oneanother.” O’MALLEY

AG says cities,towns can’tban marijuanadispensaries
JUSTIN SULLIVAN/GETTY IMAGES
It’s very likely that a medical marijuana dispensary
is coming to a community near you.
Cities and towns can’t imposean outright ban on marijuanatreatment centers — or dis-pensaries — from locatingwithin the boundaries of themunicipality after voters lastyear approved a ballot ques-tion to legalize medical mari-juana in Massachusetts.
The decision released yes-terday by Attorney GeneralMartha Coakley’s office was inresponse to a move by thetown of Wakefield, which en-acted a bylaw to ban the dis-pensaries within the town.Coakley’s office said the bylawwas in conflict with the ballotvote that ensures access tomarijuana treatment centers.
“This legislative purposecould not be served if a munic-ipality could prohibit treat-ment centers within its bor-ders, for if one municipalitycould do so, we see no princi-pled basis on which every oth-er municipality could not dothe same,” Coakley wrote.
“The question is whetherthe legislative purpose of rea-sonable access to treatmentcenters could be achieved ifevery municipality bannedthem.”
State health officials arecurrently working on a draft of
regulations to oversee the dis-pensaries. The law allows forup to 35 dispensaries in thestate, with at least one in eachcounty and no more than fivein one county.
Despite the decision not al-lowing an outright ban, Coak-ley’s office did approve a bylawby the town of Burlington thattemporarily banned the cen-ters while the town reviews itszoning regulations. That tem-porary ban was put in placeuntil June 2014.
“The temporary moratori-um is consistent with thetown’s authority to imposereasonable time limitations ondevelopment while it conductsplanning studies and considersthe implication of the state De-partment of Public Health reg-ulations concerning such cen-ters,” according to Coakley’soffice.
Coakley’s office also ruledthat cities and towns can enactzoning bylaws to regulate thedispensaries within the town’sborders.
The attorney general’s of-fice reviews all bylaws adoptedor amended by a city or town.
New regulations
due soon
The Department of PublicHealth has been working formonths on drafting rulesthat will regulate the mari-juana treatment centers.
A state health official saidyesterday that draft regula-tions will be submitted onMarch 29, according to theGlobe.
The Public Health Councilwill then have to approvethe regulations before theybecome laws.

In the newsBoston, ‘Meet Your Match’ onlocal public-access televisionWhen mixers, wingmen andCraigslist all fail, a new localdating game show has got yourback.
“Meet Your Match TV” de-buts tonight on public access,offering Boston singles aunique, albeit very public way,to score a date.
Show host Melysha Acharya,owner of BrokenHearted-Girl.com and self proclaimed“breakup recovery guru,” de-scribes the show as “‘The Dat-ing Game’ with a twist.”
“As a single person, I knowhow hard it is to meet people inBoston, so I wanted to offer analternative to that scene,”Acharya said.
The contestants — “suitors”and “suitorettes” — are separat-ed by a partition and ask eachother questions, like, “How farwould you go on a first date?”and “What’s your idea of a per-fect night?”
At the end of the game, con-
testants meet the most compat-ible matches and receive date-night gift cards.
Singles who don’t win a dateare invited to the next filming,and viewers can connect withthe “unwanted” contestantsthrough MeetYourMatch.tv,which also doubles as a datingwebsite. The show started film-ing in January, but according to
producer Matt Smith, it’s beentough getting singles to sign up.
“Hopefully once we start air-ing episodes we’ll get more peo-ple to come on the show,”Smith said.
Twenty-one-year-old rugbyplayer Jessie Pearce was one ofthe first contestants to win adate, although it didn’t end upworking out with the suit-orette, who Pearce described as“a very nice girl but not reallymy type.”
“I went on [the show] with acouple teammates; we were re-ally competitive,” he said. “Ifeel like it’s an easy way to meetsomeone.” The show airs attonight at 11 p.m. on BNN inBoston, which reaches morethan 600,000 homes in theBoston area. Episodes will alsobe available on MeetYour-Match.tv.

The white smoke has risen,“Habemus Papam!” has beenuttered and Cardinal JorgeBergoglio, Pope Francis I, hasgiven his first “Urbi et Orbi”blessing as the first ever LatinAmerican pontiff. But moreformalities are to come in thefirst few days in Francis’ papa-cy.
For his first two days aspontiff, Francis will offerthanks.
This morning, he will cele-brate Mass in the SistineChapel with the cardinals whoelected him.
He will then spend time atthe Apostolic Palace (thepope’s residence) answeringcongratulatory telegramsfrom heads of state and otherworld leaders.
This is an opportunity torenew dialogue and good rela-tions with leaders of otherfaiths.
“I trust in the help of theAlmighty to continue and tostrengthen the dialogue andcollaboration with the sonsand daughters of the Jewishpeople,” Pope Benedict XVIwrote in response to Rome’schief rabbi’s telegram. Franciswill then stage a brief audi-ence with journalists.
Benedict XVI did so fourdays after becoming pope,thanking 4,000-plus membersof the media for covering thepapal conclave.

New pope’sfirst few days
Cardinal Jorge Bergoglio of Argentina is first everpontiff from Latin America Pope Francis I to spendtwo days giving thanks Papal pick surprised many
Anthony JohnstonMETRO WORLD NEWS
What’s in a pope’s face?The election victory of JorgeMario Bergoglio took many bysurprise, including psychologyprofessor Peter M. Vishton,who created a system to deter-mine the winner based on fa-cial features. The College ofWilliam and Mary professorpolled hundreds and foundthat the Argentine “was anoutlier, as he scored below
median on our measures ofattractiveness, trustworthinessand healthiness.” The systempredicted Boston ArchbishopSean O’Malley would be thenext pope, but Bergoglioscored highly on “likeliness ofwinning.” “He just looked thepart,” said Vishton, who addedthat the newly crowned pon-tiff’s expression showedwarmth and humility in hisopening speech.

Cardinal Jorge MarioBergoglio, the first ever pon-tiff from the Americas, is alow-key intellectual whorides the bus and visits thepoor.
Widely overlooked as a con-tender prior to this year’s con-clave, the 76-year-old Jesuitand archbishop of Buenos
Aires was reportedly a closesecond when Benedict XVIwas elected in April 2005.
By nature a humble man butone caring of the destitute,Bergoglio has been a strongadvocate of liberation theol-ogy, the new Christian move-ment that promotes churchteachings to help the poorand oppressed — a policyvery popular in Latin America,but frowned upon by Vaticanconservatives. In the 1980s,Pope Benedict XVI called it a
“a singular heresy.”
He has been critical of Ar-gentina’s decision to legalizegay marriage in 2010 andPresident Cristina Kirchner’sefforts to free contraceptionand artificial insemination.
His résumé is not withoutcontroversy. In 2005, he wasaccused of conspiring withthe 1970s military dictator-ship to kidnap two Jesuits,but no evidence was foundto verify the claim.

Making myway to Paste Magazine/New-port Folk Festival’s showcase, Iarrived just in time to see thestart of Hurray for the Riff Raff’sset. The female duo from NewOrleans played a riveting,stripped-down set of country-tinged blues, combining coversongs by Billie Holiday and FredNeil with a slew of originals.
Alternating between acousticguitar and banjo, backed by afiddle and the occasional toy pi-ano, their set seemed perfectlyat home on the front patio ofthe rickety old house nowknown as the Blackheart Bar.They make their debut at theNewport Folk Festival this yearand they found out just hoursbefore their set they’ll be open-ing for the Alabama Shakes’ up-coming tour.
From there it was on toViceland to catch the Skaters’Austin debut. The buzz aroundthem, combined with sharing abill with Waaves andJapandroids, created a line ofabout 2,000 people that snakedaround the block. This was thefirst show I missed out on, and Ihope it’s my last.
After watching a few songsfrom the street, I decided tomake better use of my time and
headed over to the Mohawk tohear the Danish band Indians. Athree-piece consisting of morekeyboards than people, theband layers loops, Moog synthe-sizers and a brain-rattling drumpad to create dreamy, slightlydancy music.
Looking for some more tra-ditional rock ‘n’ roll, I driftedoff to The North Door to catchVietNam. After taking the pastfive years off, Michael Gernerand Co. are back with a new six-piece lineup and a recentrecord, but their sound remainsthe same. It has dark, lengthyand often druggy narratives, de-livered without traditionalverse/chorus structure and setagainst a heavy shimmer ofblues guitar riffs.

Abigail Breslin (one of theyoungest-ever Oscar nominees,now 16) and Morris Chestnutstar in a thriller about a 911 op-erator who fields a call from anabducted girl. Brad Anderson(“The Machinist”) directs.
3‘Upside Down’ This $50 million European pro-
duction stars Jim Sturgess andKirsten Dunst as star-crossedlovers who live on opposites sidesof a planet with double gravity.There’s also something about“the secret of the pink bees.”
4‘Like Someone in Love’Iranian filmmaker Abbas

5‘West of Memphis’ If you don’t have seven hours
to spare to watch Joe Berlingerand Bruce Sinofsky’s “ParadiseLost” docs — on the now-freedWest Memphis Three — you cando it in two and a half hourswith this summary doc, whichboasts producer Peter Jackson.
6‘Oz the Great and Powerful’In order to avoid a repeat of
1985’s “Return to Oz,” which ter-rified kids (or at least parents)into dismal returns, Disney hashired the guy who made three“Evil Dead” movies. Sam Raimidirects this prequel starringeveryone’s idea of an old-timey
actor: mumbling stoner JamesFranco.
7‘Dead Man Down’ Noomi Rapace and her origi-
nal “Girl With the DragonTattoo” director, Niels ArdenOplev, reunite in America for thisridiculous revenge saga, inwhich Colin Farrell hatches a hi-lariously convoluted scheme tokill a crime lord (TerrenceHoward) who snuffed his family.It co-stars Isabelle Huppert!

docu-dramedy, Gael GarciaBernal plays an ad whiz hired tohead the campaign to oust mon-strous dictator Augusto Pinochet
from power. Spoiler: It worked!
9‘Yossi’ Israeli filmmaker Eytan Fox

The tabloids are speculat-ing about Kris and BruceJenner: Are they headedfor divorce? If so, then
they would each eventuallyjoin the legions of people whohave had to start over. Datingafter a divorce can be challeng-ing, whether you are in thepublic eye or not. Two simplerules of thumb can help youpush forward into new roman-tic territory.
First, avoid comparing theperson you are dating to yourex. While it is tempting tomeasure them for better orworse against your formerpartner, the real goal is to focuson how they make you feelabout yourself when you’rewith them. Evaluating thembased on how you felt aboutyour ex rather than on whothey are means you will windup either regretting what youlost or angry about what you
missed out on all those years.That will mire you in the nega-tivity of your former marriage— keeping the pain and loss ofdivorce alive — instead of let-ting go and moving on with a
new flame. Stay focused onbuilding a new relationshipand leave your past where it be-longs — behind you.
Second, avoid bad-mouthing your ex — especiallyto the person you are dating.This is a difficult one, becausemost people come away fromdivorce angry about what wentwrong and wanting to talkabout it. Be mindful about whoyou vent to: Blaming and criti-cizing could scare off your newpartner. They could wonderwhat you might say aboutthem if they did something toupset you. There are two sidesto every story, so as much aspossible try to present a bal-anced picture when you arespeaking about your formermarriage.
Whether you are fa-mous or not, whendealing with the af-termath of divorce
this old adage can be helpful: Ifyou can’t say anything nice,don’t say anything at all. Whenyou talk negatively, you keepbad feelings alive. When youtalk positively, you put them torest. The ultimate goal is to geton with your new life in a bet-ter place for what you gainedfrom your old one.
Keep these rules in mindand you will be equipped toleave the past in its place andmove on with your excitingnew dating life.
Dating after divorce:Can you start afresh?
If Kris and Bruce Jenner
split, they should let go
of the anger and move
on with positivity.

Thumbing noses atConstitution knowsno party bounds RE: “JUST DRONING ON” (METRO,MARCH 8) I was in fullagreement of columnist TomForeman’s column until Iread his description ofDemocrats as “not giving adamn about theConstitution.” I’m not muchof a Democrat myself, but Ifind this label to be extremelyhypocritical. I mean, really?The cornerstone of this coun-try’s Constitution is thatevery citizen, whether rich,poor, blue or satanic has theright to vote. Where doRepublicans stand on this is-sue? Passing new voting lawsduring an election and argu-ing that the Voting Right’s Actis now obsolete because somehow racism no longer exists.It’s absolutely outrageous
that any Republican can takesuch a moral high groundwhile the GOP’s mainstreamface is ridden with incompe-tent blemishes like SCOTUSJustice Scalia and Florida Gov.Rick Scott.JEAN CHARLES, VIA E-MAIL
‘Sequester’ hotpotato started with the presidentI get very irritated when Iread Metro letter writers talk-ing through thin air. A recentletter writer didn’t knowwhere the sequester was fromand simply called it “a Repub-lican demand” when actuallythe reality is that the Republi-cans are actually blamelessthis time around. The idea forsequestration began insidethe Obama White House in
July 2011 when the presidentthought “sequester’ would ac-tually prevent furthergridlock and fiscal cliffs. Thatsummer a vast majority of De-mocrats in the U.S. Senatejoined their Republican mem-bers in overwhelmingly sup-port the sequester idea — andover in the U.S. House, 79 De-mocrats joined in with the Re-publican majority and aftersigned by President Obama,became law.
I don’t believe either sidethought the Gramm-Rudman-style sequester would evercome to pass, but as we see, itdid. All assumed that the veryidea of across-the-boarddiscretionary spending cutswould bring Capitol Hill totheir collective senses. How-ever, it is President Obamawho is in reality the father ofsequestration and not the
GOP. Both parties are respon-sible for the inaction, but se-quester was a Democraticidea. SAL GIARRATANI, VIA E-MAIL
Drone strikes revealdouble standardPresident Bush was blastedby the liberal media and De-mocrats for usingwaterboarding and torturetechniques on terrorists.Even a young Sen. Obamawas against using torture onterrorists. However, as presi-dent, the story changes:“Why torture terrorists whenwe can kill them?” Dronesare a great way to kill terror-ists. We can even use droneson our own citizens. Ihaven’t heard any outragefrom Obama’s beloved wor-shipers. Some liberals getmore upset over a Nativityscene on public property thanlosing their Constitutionalrights with drone strikes. TheDemocrats would’ve demand-ed Bush’s impeachment if hetried to get away with such anatrocity.JOHN MCLAUGHLIN, VIA E-MAIL

Solution to yesterday’scrossword
shepherd’s pie. What shepherdwould do such a thing to hisflock? Magoun’s version, withgamey braised lamb toppedwith super-smooth mashed tat-ties, may help you understandwhy.
It’s also worth noting thatall of Magoun’s dishes go wellwith a pint or two. Slainte!
but the potato plays a big partof a special Irish menu thisweekend. This great staple marries with leek in a wintrysoup and, as potato colcannon,it’s more than a side in a boiledbacon dinner — it’s the star.
Colcannon is an Irish dish ofpotato, cooked with kale orcabbage and creamed with but-ter and milk. Unlike pop, bub-ble and squeak (an English mixof potato, cabbage and peas),colcannon isn’t made with left-overs, but cooked up fresh andfinished with parsley.
Another St. Paddy’s Day dish
is a sandwich of chunky-cutcorned beef on a soft briocheroll — buttered, of course.Corning, or curing beef withsalt, is perhaps, like the potato,a relatively new concept.
It’s grim that a classic dishwith lamb in it would be called

TOUGH GUYS LIKE PINKThe Hives’ Howlin’ Pelle Almqvist talks about the band’s longevity and what it’s like
opening for a pop star ‘A lot of dude rock bands don’t have the guts,’ he says
If anyone can get Pink’sparty started, it’s theHives. The Swedish punkupstarts are opening her
first full North American tourin three years, and after only ahandful of dates, Pink’s al-ready warming their hearts aswell as the rest of their bodies.
“Sweden has been so coldlately and we were on tour re-cently. I’m sick of Sweden inthe winter, really,” says Hivessinger Howlin’ Pelle Almqvist.“We did our own show inAustin, too. On these big arenatours, they don’t play everyday, and we try and play everyday when we’re on the road.We like to play every day andtake our days off at home. So,
we added a bunch of our ownshows. “
It’s all part of the sameplan though: to promote theirfifth album, “Lex Hives,” andcelebrate the band’s 20th an-niversary.
“Twenty years ago, we were13 at the time. But the coolthing is that in two years wewill have been a band longerthan the Ramones,” says
Almqvist. “That’s spectacular!I’ve been in this band morethan half my life.”
So, what do Pink’s fansthink of the Hives?
“It starts with some kind ofbewilderment and maybe atinge of fear,” Almqvist dead-pans. “But that turns into ex-citement. A lot of themhaven’t seen live rock ‘n’ rollbefore, like a band playingtheir instruments. I feel weare doing good cultural work.It’s pretty good of Pink tobring us along. A lot of duderock bands don’t have the gutsand would be frightened.”
ANNIKA BERGLUND
Replay valueAlmqvist figures the Hives'longevity is due to less be-ing more: “We really wantto be happy with eachalbum. It’s a big undertak-ing; it would be hard tomake another if you didn’tlike the last one. You have tobe proud of what you do inorder to continue. A Hivesrecord — because theydon’t come that often — it’snot something you throwaway. You need to listen acouple of times because it’sgoing to be a long time be-fore the next one.”

URGENT REBUTTAL NEEDEDWes Welker bolts to Denver Receiver was one of most productive players in NFL history
during time with Patriots Signing Danny Amendola a nice first step, but more is needed
When Tom Brady re-signed with the Pa-triots for a bargainbasement deal last
month, it was widely believedthat the team would turnaround and spend that extracash on a player who could ele-vate the team’s current statusas one of the handful of bestteams in the NFL to a surefireSuper Bowl favorite.
As of Wednesday night, thePatriots haven’t followedthrough on their end of theperceived bargain. That could
certainly still change at anyhour, but until that happensthe Patriots will rightfully beblasted in the media and byfans for letting the mostproductive receiver in the his-tory of the franchise bolt town.In case you haven’t heard, WesWelker agreed to a two-year,$12 million deal yesterday tojoin rival Peyton Manning andthe Broncos in Denver.
According to severalreports, Bill Belichick and thePats’ brass didn’t work all thathard to keep No. 83 inFoxboro. Albert Breer, of NFLNetwork, tweeted moments af-ter news of Welker’s departurebroke: “My understanding isthe Patriots’ final and only re-cent offer was $10M over twoyears with incentives. Didn’t
make a big effort to keep him.”Comcast New England’s
Tom E. Curran spoke withsomeone close to Tom Bradymoments after the news brokeand the source was “enraged”and used words such as“disgrace” and “disservice” re-garding the contract details.
For months, both the an-ti-Welker and pro-Welk-er camps had great talk-ing points throughout
this whole “keep-him,” “let-him-bolt” saga. Yes, he will be32 years old when the 2013season begins, and yes, in thePatriots’ two most recent play-off losses, Welker had hugedrops. Still, there has beennext to nothing to suggest thatWelker’s ungodly production
as the Pats’ slot receiver wouldcease over the next few years.Welker had been Brady’s secu-rity blanket since he was trad-ed to New England from theDolphins in 2007, and onecould easily make the case thatWelker was the best slot receiv-er in NFL history during histenure with the Pats. Therewere five seasons with morethan 110 catches here. No oth-er player in NFL history hasmore than two seasons withthat type of production.
But this whole contractthing with Welker wasnever really about pro-duction. He could have
caught 300 balls last seasonand things wouldn’t havechanged much from the Patri-
ots’ perspective. The bottom line is that they
don’t think Wes Welker isworth $12 million over twoyears. And, really, that shouldbe fine with everyone … onone condition:
Spend that extra cashyou’ve got laying aroundNOW. Not next summer whenBrady will be closing in on 37years of age. Not the summerafter, when he’ll be yet anoth-er year older. NOW, when theAFC is basically there for thetaking. NOW, when Brady isin the first year of this finaldeal. NOW, when RobGronkowski and Hernandezare entering their primes.NOW, when the defenseneeds multiple, heady veter-ans to reach that next level.
The Patriots can still figureout a way to be, above and be-yond, the Super Bowl favoritewhen camp begins in July. Butmake no mistake, for the Patri-ots’ front office it’s “show me”time. NOW.

In the news
Report: Patriotsagree to dealwith Amendola
The Patriots reachedan agreement withformer Rams slot re-ceiver Danny Amen-dola Wednesdaynight for a reporteddeal of $31 millionover five years,according to NFLNetwork. The dealaverages out to be$6.1 million per year.Wes Welker received$6 million per yearfrom the Broncos,according to reports.
Amendola hadhis best season withSt. Louis in 2010when he caught 85balls for 689 yardsand three touch-downs. The 27-year-old also posted1,618 yards in kickreturn yardage in2009 with St. Louis.
Bill Belichick, left, must act fact if he wants Patriots fans to forget about Wes Welker.
