CANADA FIRE RAGES, EVACUEES SET FOR LONG WAIT

A wildfire ripping through Canada’s oil sands region was set to grow rapidly on Sunday but move further away from heavily populated areas, a fire official said. The fire which started near the town of Fort McMurray in northeast Alberta, spread so quickly that the town’s 88,000 inhabitants barely had time to leave. Large parts of the town have been incinerated. The front of the fire was moving southeast, away from Fort McMurray toward the neighboring province of Saskatchewan, said wildfire information officer Travis Fairweather, but was not expected to reach the border on Sunday.

ONE WINNING $429M POWERBALL TICKET SOLD

One winning ticket matched the numbers drawn on Saturday night for the multistate Powerball jackpot for a payout estimated at $429.6 million, the ninth-highest U.S. lottery prize in history, officials said. The winning numbers selected just before 11 p.m. EDT were 25 66 44 5 26 with the Powerball 9. Lottery officials said one ticket, purchased in New Jersey, had the winning combination, according to media reports. The winner was not identified. Winners of huge lottery payouts sometimes do not come forward publicly for months. It was the largest jackpot for any U.S. lottery since January, when three Powerball tickets split a record $1.6 billion. The odds of winning at Powerball are one in 292 million. Statistics experts say that means an American is roughly 25 times more likely to become the next president of the United States than to win the game. Kelly Cripe, a Texas-based lottery spokeswoman, said Saturday’s Powerball followed 17 consecutive draws without a winner. REUTERS

BOLARIS’ WEATHER WATCH: LET’S WELCOME BACK THE SUN I don’t know about you, but these last two weeks of the funk, clouds, drizzle, rain and unseasonably cool temperatures zapped me of energy and overall happiness. Weather moods are quite common as the paucity of sunlight — along with extended periods of unsettled weather — can definitely bring you down and put you in what I call a deep weather funk. On the other hand, a nice dose of vitamin D (sunshine) helps to boost one’s energy and spirits. Whether it’s psychological or physiological, we are all affected by the weather. The reason for the extended period of the funk was due to what we call an atmospheric omega block, which looks like an

A crash course on Boston’s first Flugtag It even has teams designing “planes” destined to crash. SPENCER BUELL @MetroBOS

spencer.buell@metro.us

With the deadline fast approaching for applications to Boston’s first-ever Red Bull Flugtag competition, teams around the city are fine-tuning their bids for the kooky celebration of flight. The contest invites groups of five to design a craft, then push that craft off a 38-foot-high platform over a body of water. In Boston’s case, that’s the Charles River. The teams dress up in costumes, perform a choreographed dance number then shove off. Points are awarded for creativity, quality of the dance, and distance the mini-airplanes fly before crashing. Some aim for engineering precision, others for sheer laughs. YouTube videos of planes shaped like giant cakes, sharks, soccer balls and human heads speak to the variety of ways creative tinkerers have traveled from liftoff to splashdown. The cutoff for applicants is May 13. The event is scheduled for August 20. Last Thursday, Secret Boston invited a handful of Flugtag teams to meet with Metro in SB’s headquarters in Jamaica Plain. Here’s what they told us about their plans:

For this group of engineers with degrees from Northeastern, inspiration came from the children’s television cartoon show “Ed, Edd ‘n’ Eddy.” “We remembered in an episode they build a plane from all the stuff in the schoolyard and launch off the roof, so it’s thrown together,” said Eugene Zeleny, 26, of Arlington. “It’s a clunker, essentially, that works.” They plan to re-create the junky airplane and dress up like characters from the show, he said. He’ll build the thing in his basement woodworking shop.

DEREK KOUYOUMJIAN

Style will be key, Zeleny said, but at the same time the team will have their eyes on the distance prize. They’ve been doing their homework to learn from the many, many, many past failures documented in videos online, he said. “We did hours and hours of like YouTubing all of Flugtag and drinking beer,” said teammate Mike Caulley, 26, of Jamaica Plain. “It was fun research.”

then throw them off the platform into the water,” he said. The plane will be a miniature version of the ship Eleanor (one of three vessels boarded by the Sons of Liberty the night of the infamous tea-dumping in 1773). “We knew there would be other people doing it,” he said, “but we’re trying to be the ones” to get picked for the big day.

Team Boston Party Piñata

“You might be familiar with the Pizza Rat,” said Andrew Haycox, 31, of the South End, “who was famous for taking the pizza.” Haycox said he plans to dress up in a rat costume, stand on a rolling cart made to look like stairs, then dangle in the air from a hang glider shaped like a pizza slice. It’s an ode to the viral video sensation from last year, in which a rodent drags a slice of cheese pizza down the stairs to a New York City subway station. His goal, Haycox said — and that of his team of “barely educated” friends — is to build the cheapest plane of the bunch, and to beat the meticulous engineers from top colleges at their own game. “Pizza Rat is flying in the face of all the fancy show-boaters,” he said. “We’re simultaneously low-balling and trying seriously to win. Hopefully when the MIT kids are up they have, like, some really bad wind and flop or something.”

“We’re building a large donkey made out of papier-mâché as big as we can possibly make it, with a big goofy head on it,” said Jared Daley, the 30-year-old self-described “mayor” of Secret Boston. “And it probably is not going to fly.” That’s Daley’ vision for the official SB craft. “It’s gonna make the party happen,” he said. Because why not, the piñata will be piloted by a real pilot: Bose Roy, 33, who flies for a commercial charter jet company. But, she admits, even she can’t make a giant party favor take flight.

Team Sons of Liberty Matt DiStefano, 26, of Brookline, and four of his friends are planning on re-creating the Boston Tea Party, with a twist. “One guy is going to be a Redcoat, and we’re going to put him in the boat with the tea and

Man struck by train at Boston’s Broadway MBTA station Buses were replacing rail service at six stops on the Red Line Sunday afternoon after a man was struck by a train at Broadway Station. The victim was described as a man around 55 years old who had been trespassing at the station around 2:36 p.m. when he was hit by a passing train, according to police. His injuries were described as serious but not life-threatening. He has been taken to an area hospital. Police do not suspect foul play. After the collision, the man had been brieﬂy pinned under the train, according to a report from NECN. Investigators continued to analyze the scene Sunday afternoon, and the MBTA wrote in an update on its website that shuttles were replacing service from the Park Street station to JFK/UMass.

Trump, in reversal, says the wealthy should pay more taxes Trump, who effectively sealed the Republican presidential nomination last week after the departure from the race of his two remaining rivals, has pledged to unify the party behind him. Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump said on Sunday he is open to raising taxes on wealthy Americans, backing off his prior proposal to reduce taxes on all Americans. “I am willing to pay more, and you know what, the wealthy are willing to pay more,” Trump told ABC’s “This Week.” But prominent Republicans remain deeply divided over the New York

Republicans such as Paul Ryan, the top Republican in the House of Representatives, have distanced themselves from Trump over his proposal to temporarily ban Muslims from entering the United States. Trump’s fiercely antitrade rhetoric is also at odds with the views of Ryan and many other probusiness Republicans. Trump’s tax proposal, released last September, included broad tax breaks for businesses and households. He proposed reducing the highest incometax rate to 25 percent from the current 39.6 percent rate. Pressed on the contradiction between his latest comments on taxes and the September tax plan, Trump said that he expected his original proposal was “a concept” and he expected that it would

Mercury poised for rare ‘transit’ across sun’s face on Monday

The 2016 Mercury planetary transit is seen in an undated NASA conceptual image. Mercury will pass between Earth and the sun in the rare astronomical event between about 7:12 a.m. and 2:42 p.m. EDT on Monday. NASA HANDOUT

Stargazers will have a rare opportunity on Monday to witness Mercury fly directly across the face of the sun, a sight that unfolds once every 10 years or so, as Earth and its smaller neighboring planet come into perfect alignment. The best vantage points to observe the celestial event, known to astronomers as a transit, are eastern North America, South America, Western Europe and Africa, assuming clouds are not obscuring the sun. In those regions, the entire transit will occur during daylight hours, according to Sky and Telescope magazine. But Mercury is too small to see without high-powered binoculars or a telescope, and looking directly at the sun, even with sunglasses, could cause permanent eye damage. Fortunately NASA and astronomy organizations are providing

virtual ringside seats for the show by livestreaming images of the transit in its entirety and providing expert commentary. The tiny planet, slightly larger than Earth’s moon, will start off as a small black dot on the edge of the sun at 7:12 a.m. Traveling 30 miles a second, Mercury will take 7.5 hours to cross the face of the sun, which is about 864,300 miles in diameter, or about 109 times larger than Earth. “Unlike sunspots, which have irregular shapes and grayish borders, Mercury’s silhouette will be black and precisely round,” Sky and Telescope said in a press release. The event will come into view in the western United States after dawn, with the transit already in progress. The show will end at sunset in parts of Europe, Africa and most of Asia. NASA Television,

available on the Internet, will broadcast live video and images from the orbiting Solar Dynamics Observatory and other telescopes. The show includes informal discussions with NASA scientists, who will answer questions submitted via Twitter using the hashtag #AskNASA. Scientists will take advantage of Mercury’s transit for a variety of science projects, including refining techniques to look for planets beyond the solar system. “When a planet crosses in front of the sun, it causes the sun’s brightness to dim. Scientists can measure similar brightness dips from other stars to find planets orbiting them,” NASA said. Mercury’s last transit was in 2006 and the planet will pass between the sun and Earth again in 2019. After that, the next opportunity to witness the event will not come until 2032. REUTERS

The response by Metro subway employees to the explosion of a third-rail insulator and ﬁre on Thursday showed major lapses by the system’s control center, the Federal Transit Administration said in a directive. Metro, the second-busiest U.S. subway system, must

As a society these days, we’re less afraid of people on the Internet and more concerned with having access to as many singles as possible to find the one.

And all of a sudden, sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Oh, my God! What happened?â&#x20AC;? And I loved it; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s my favorite season.

How Ho did you approach the th character this time around after everyar thing that happened in th Season Five? Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve left my character in a really bad state. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never seen her so shaken, so out of control

Melisandre horriďŹ ed a lot of fans when she sacriďŹ ced Shireen, the daughter of Stannis Baratheon, last season. Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been at the center of a lot of the worst events over the showâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s history.

As an actress you go, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Wow! This is great, epic and nobody is going to forget this.â&#x20AC;? I mean, I had a few of those: the leeches on the penis and the giving birth to the shadow babies. But this really topped everything, of course. As an actor you think this is great, but as a person you think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the most horrible thing you have done. And itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not going to get me any sympathy points.Â The shooting itself was also quite harsh. It was extremely cold with strong wind and snow. And, of course, my character is never cold, which is also a challenge in itself. And then thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Kerry [Ingram, who plays Shireen] â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a sweet, bubbly, lovely girl, who is also a very good actor

â&#x20AC;&#x201D; making you believe she is really on fire. That doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really make it easier. But we did have a lot of fun. Have you been harassed by fans over your characterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s actions? Oh, yes, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s funny â&#x20AC;&#x201D; there are also people who like my character. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a bit suspicious of these people [Laughs]. But, you know, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nice for an actor. Obviously, people like to hate, or like the mystery Melisandre is surrounded with. And itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s difficult to like a character like this, in comparison to the Onion Knight. Should we expect more nudity in Season Six? This is my answer: Yes and no. And you will see why.

HOW TO GET AHEAD

The hardest part of the job search isn’t what you think

Free parking available

Feeling demoralized and “flawed” can take a toll on job seekers.

Morgan Memorial Goodwill Industries www.bostoncareerlink.org

ALIZAH SALARIO @Alirosa

alizah.salario@metro.us

First dates and job interviews have a lot in common. In both scenarios, success is determined by chemistry, personality, responses to open-ended questions like “Tell me about yourself” and vague assertions about being a good fit. But do you want to pick, say, a computer programmer using the same criteria as you would a life partner? Not really, says Ofer Sharone, a professor of sociology at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst and the author of “Flawed System/Flawed Self: Job Searching and Unemployment Experiences,” which compares hiring practices in the U.S. and Israel. Sharone’s research suggest that in the U.S., hiring is often based on a subjective process. Not only does this allow employers to rely on their biases and perpetuate homogeneity in the workplace, but “it creates an experience of the job search which is highly personalized,” says Sharone. “So therefore, when you’re unemployed and you’re facing rejections for six months to a year, it’s very common to hear

people start talking about they’re flawed, or saying ‘something is wrong with me.’” Sharone offered his best advice for staying upbeat, even while your résumé returns nothing but radio silence.

Know what you’re up against. When hiring is based on highly subjective elements such as chemistry or gut feelings, it can “create a challenge for anyone who is extremely skilled and qualified to try and conform to the mold for what “the right fit” is,” Sharone says. “Networking, together with interviews, creates a [hiring] situation that has a lot with intangibles.” The focus on intangibles tends to put more focus on passion, as opposed to skill. This ethos can lead job seekers to take rejections far more personally — particularly those who’ve been scouring the market for six months or more — and leave them feeling demoralized, and even flawed, says Sharone.

Mind the gap (on your résumé). Even if you’re unemployed, do something career-related. “If you’re a professional, you want to have something at the top of the resume that you’re currently doing in your field,” Sharone says. “You

have to be active and upto-date in your profession, and whether you’re paid for it is really secondary. Employers have absurd biases, and this is a way to counter the bias.” Consulting gigs or volunteering are great ways to stay engaged while unemployed, says Sharone. Whether it should or not, the stigma against the unemployed persists.

mistake to think you have all the power, or that you have no power,” adds Sharone. “Job seeking is not like baseball. You just need to hit it once.”

• Madison Security Group Inc.

Seek support. During a period of unemployment, it’s common for self-esteem to take a hit. “A good way to counter this is to find a peer support group. Find people who are going through the same thing. It deindividualizes the experience,” says Sharone. People often think they’re the only ones feeling discouraged, but understanding biases and structural obstacles can prevent frustrated job seekers from putting the onus entirely on their shoulders. “You realize the dice are loaded, but you need to keep rolling the dice nonetheless,” he says.

Keep your eye on the prize. When discouraged, it’s easy to fall into extreme thinking, but “you have to recognize the kind of game you’re playing. It’s somewhere between the lottery and chess. It’s a

A forgotten attachment. A glaring typo. A never-ending reply-all thread. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve all been on the sending â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and receiving â&#x20AC;&#x201D; end of common email annoyances. But beyond being more cautious about simple slipups, there are some practical steps you can take to quell inbox angst. Hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what to consider before you hit send:

Know your audience Before you begin typing, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Stop, take a breath and think about your audience,â&#x20AC;? career and executive coach Maggie Mistal says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really about [knowing] who youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re sending it to and whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be easier for them.â&#x20AC;? Begin with a descriptive subject that clearly highlights what the email will be about. Then think about what you might need from your recipient and vice versa.

Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nothing worse than feeling your eyes glaze over by the time you read paragraph six of an email (if you even get that far). To curb reader fatigue, be as concise as possible, without clouding essential information in wordy paragraphs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I always say, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Bullet point

Be concise, clear and cautious ISTOCK

me!â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? Mistal explains. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You might need to communicate a lot in one email, so separate out the points, and bold the action steps you [the recipient] needs to take.â&#x20AC;? Likewise, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t send three emails when one will suffice just because youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in a rush and forgot some necessary info. Think through what you need to address, and do so in one swoop. Â

Be mindful of tone Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re all in a rush to get things done, but before hitting â&#x20AC;&#x153;send,â&#x20AC;? consider how your words might be received, given that email lacks the intonation and nuance of verbal communication. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no tone in email, so you have to

assume that anything you say can be taken the wrong way,â&#x20AC;? Mistal says. Having second thoughts about something youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re writing? Mistal suggests having another pair of eyes read it over, or writing a draft and allowing some separation time before sending. Â â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sleep on it, or if you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wait overnight, go for a walk around the block,â&#x20AC;? she suggests. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Come back with a fresh perspective.â&#x20AC;? Â

Know when to take it offline Praise publicly, criticize privately. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one thing to compliment a job well done in an email, but if you need to give negative feedback, pick up the phone or address the issue in person. And

the worst thing you could ever do? Throw someone under the bus in an email. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Blaming someone else on your team never sits well,â&#x20AC;? Mistal says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lasting and more publicâ&#x20AC;? she says, and can trigger defensive reactions. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re better off picking up the phone and working it out.â&#x20AC;? Â

Be polite One-liners are OK if you have a rapport with the other person, but generally beginning with a kind â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hi, how are you?â&#x20AC;? sets a courteous tone. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Email is an opportunity to get your point across in a way thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s respectful,â&#x20AC;? Mistal says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Etiquette isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t useless â&#x20AC;&#x201D; thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a real reason and value.â&#x20AC;?

SPORTS

Most boo-worthy athletes for Boston sports fans in 2016 These 10 athletes deserve mountains of boos whenever they visit Boston. MATTHEW BURKE @burke_metro

matthew.burke@metro.us

Peyton Manning is retired. Derek Jeter is retired. Kobe Bryant is retired. For years and years you could place those three players at or near the top of any Boston sports hate list, but the times they have changed. Most of the venom coming from Boston sports fans these days is pointed in the direction of NFL executives (Roger Goodell, Mike Kensil), executives of other NFL teams (Jim Irsay, Ryan Grigson) and coaches of other NFL teams (John Harbaugh). Basically, anyone “higher up” who had anything at all to do with Deflategate, Boston fans will instinctually loathe. But what about on the playing field? Here’s the list. Let me know your “most hated” on Twitter @Burke_Metro.

10DeAngelo Williams

RB, Steelers Williams slammed the Pats on Twitter earlier this year when asked if he’d be interested in playing in Foxboro. “From what I’m told only Tom Brady likes [Bill Belichick], so no thank you I’m happy where I am.” When someone replied, “Bill Belichick owns the Steelers,” Williams came back with the following: “No, he owns the most seasons/Super Bowls with questionable tactics in securing the win aka cheating.”

9Sidney Crosby

C, Penguins It’s hard to believe that Sid the Kid has been in the league for 10 years now. He hasn’t crossed paths with the Bruins all that much in big games, but his incessant whining

on the ice always draws the ire of Boston fans.

8 Brandon Marshall

and then play well, but Ellsbury has been a nonfactor in the Bronx and the Yankees have been decidedly mediocre.

LB, Broncos The Broncos talked a whole lot of smack before the AFC Championship game, which makes the fact that the Pats lost that game that much more difficult to swallow. Marshall signaled out Rob Gronkowski prior to the game, saying that the only reason the big tight end gets open is because he “pushes off.” For the record, Gronkowski had eight catches for 144 yards and a touchdown in the Pats’ two-point loss

4LeBron James

7Dennis Schroder

3 Alex Rodriguez

G, Hawks The freshest name on the list, Dennis Schroder lands here because of the extra-curricular activity he dished out during the Hawks-Celtics series in April. Schroder got into it with Isaiah Thomas in Game 3 and then Jae Crowder in Game 4. Schroder was booed nearly every time he touched the ball in Boston, and “Schroder sucks!” was on equal ground with “Let’s go Celtics!” in terms of favorites during the series.

6PKSubban

F, Cavaliers He’s a coach-killer. He’s entitled. He’s a whiner. From 2008-11 he was regarded as the best player in the NBA, but the Celtics owned him. Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce weren’t big fans of LeBron, and the Garden was mostly a house of horrors for him … until Game 6 of the 2012 Eastern Conference Finals when he poured in 45 points in a Heat win.

DH, Yankees He nearly became a Red Sox in 2004 but the Yankees swooped in and landed him from Texas. Later that year, he got into a brawl with Jason Varitek and swatted the ball out of Bronson Arroyo’s glove while running to first in the ALCS. And then there’s all the steroids stuff. The reason he’s not higher now though is that hating A-Rod has become way too easy.

2 EliManning

D, Canadiens Subban has been agitating Bruins fans since 2010 and was the main heel during the Bruins’ tenure as the best team in the Eastern Conference from 2011-13. The hatred has now turned into mostly jealousy as the Canadiens and Subban owned the B’s for a couple of years.

QB, Giants This man cost the Patriots two Super Bowl titles with what are arguably the two luckiest passes in Super Bowl history — the helmet catch to David Tyree and the pass down the sidelines to Mario Manningham. This particular Manning seems to be mediocre against every other team in the league except the Patriots.

5Jacoby Ellsbury

1Terrell Suggs

CF, Yankees Ellsbury’s not living up to his side of the bargain when it comes to being hated in Boston. The easiest way to gain instant hate in the Hub is to willingly jump to the Yankees

LB, Ravens No one has talked more bull poop about the Patriots over the years than the Ravens linebacker. It came to a head in the 2012 AFC title game when the Ravens beat the Pats

Terrell Suggs seemingly gets arrested every oﬀseason (yes he even got arrested in 2016). GETTY IMAGES

in Foxboro. “Those are the most arrogant pricks in the world, starting with Belichick on down,”

Add in the fact that Suggs is just a rotten dude and you have the recipe for the most boo-able man in Boston sports.

Suggs said on the field, in between taunting Patriots fans. “Funny, ever since SpyGate they haven’t been able to win.”
