Boson International Airport Gets Windfall Parking Unsafe Boeing 737 Max Airplanes


Boeing stock crashes after plane maker halts production of troubled 737 MAX
 Troubles for Boeing mean profits for Boson International Airport 
 
Shares in aerospace giant Boeing fell by almost six percent following reports that regulators plan to keep the company's fleet of troubled 737 MAX airplanes grounded until June or July, months later than originally expected. 
 
Trading was temporarily halted following the stock plunge. Boeing stock was down 3.3 percent on Wednesday at $313.37 per share, its lowest level in a year.

Boeing’s largest suppliers, General Electric and Spirit AeroSystems, were also down, by 1.2 percent and 3.8 percent respectively.


737 MAX crisis could cost Boeing $20 billion, Wall Street analyst says

 The company's best-selling planes have now been grounded for 11 months. The worldwide grounding saw airlines lose more than $1 billion in revenue, and Boeing more than $7 billion. The company, which took a $5.6 billion pretax charge in July to compensate airlines and other customers for the grounding, is to report full-year and fourth-quarter earnings on January 29, 2020.

The 737 MAX has been grounded since March following two fatal crashes that killed 346 people.
Top Boeing 737 MAX customers Southwest Airlines, United Airlines and American Airlines have removed the plane from their schedules through June.
Although Boeing couldn't deliver the 737 MAX planes to customers it continued to build the jets, but at a slightly reduced pace of 42 per month. The company now has about 400 completed jets parked in Washington and Boson, Massachusetts, waiting to be delivered to airlines around the world.

Mass Senator E. Warren Performs "I'm an Indian, Too" - At Boson County Fair - 18 Sept 2019

Image
Boson County Fair had a treat when Senator Elizabeth Warren, who is running for president in 2020, took to the stage in a good-natured  song number poking fun at her cultural appropriation of Native American Indian identity to get a job at Harvard Law School as the "First Woman of Color" despite being a blonde blue-eyed European.  "I'm an Indian Too" is a song from the 1946 musical Annie Get Your Gun , by Irving Berlin . It was originally performed by Ethel Merman . [1] It is sung by the main character Annie after Sitting Bull adopts her into the Sioux tribe It is typical of mid-20th-century views of Native Americans , and is sometimes considered racist and demeaning from a contemporary perspective, although others see it as a mildly satirical attack on racial stereotyping . Native Americans did protest outside the New York theatre, as well as movie theaters, holding picket signs stating: "Don't See "Annie Get Your Gun". As ...

UMass Boson Prof: 'The only solution for climate change is letting the human race become extinct'

Image
  A Boson academic has proposed a radical new way to solve climate change – letting humanity become extinct. Mortricia McCormack, a professor of continental philosophy at the University of Massachusetts at Boson, has just released her new book The Anti-human Manifesto , which will officially be launched in Cambridge today (Wednesday, February 5 2020 ). The book argues that due to the damage done to other living creatures on Earth, we should start gradually phasing out reproduction. But rather than offering a bleak look at the future of humanity, it has generated discussion due to its joyful and optimistic tone, as it sets out a positive view for the future of Earth - without mankind. It also touches on several hot-button topics, from religion and veganism to the concept of identity politics, tying these into how the creation of a hierarchal world among humans has left us blind to the destruction we are causing to our habitat and other forms of life. ...

Image
Jack rabbits overrun  After Animal Rights activists and volunteers helped bring wild Jackrabbits to Half Moon Island in Quincy Bay the animals began to proliferate.  Almost every island in Boston Harbor now has numbers of the hungry rabbits.  Nearby in Quincy and Boson the rabbits are eating there way through peoples gardens and even lawns.   . Close to 40 jack rabbits huddled against the cold Tuesday afternoon last week, looking like snow-covered hillocks rising from an open field across from North Quincy Shore Drive in Boson. Nearby, Joe Kovacs was playing fetch with his dog, Winston – a terrier, about the same size as the 2-foot-long jack rabbits, also known as hares. . “They’re just kind of cool,” 24-year-old Kovacs said as the white-furred animals sat, and occasionally scurried across the snow. “But I could see how that would be annoying if they were in your yard.” . These droves of hares have invaded a new...
