To help local high school students imagine the wider world of opportunities after graduation, the Haverhill High School guidance department is hosting its first Post Secondary Expo next during school hours.Representatives from nine apprenticeship and trade programs, four branches of the military, six community-based workforce agencies and local unions will join 30 two- and four-year colleges to showcase their offerings. The expo is the brainchild of Megan Arivella, supervisor of school counseling K-12 for Haverhill Public Schools, and her team of high school counselors. Arivella, a recent guest on WHAV's “Win for Breakfast” program, explained why offering more options is important to today's high school students.“We're looking to shift the narrative a little bit from students who may choose a college or university for their future plans, but also provide other opportunities for students. So, the typical college fair that a school might host we wanted to think bigger and better beyond that,” she explained.Arivella said that while college remains a strong option for many graduating seniors, particularly with the new option of free tuition at community colleges and some state institutions, she said more and more young people are seeking alternatives. With that in mind, the Expo will be open to all grade levels, freshman through the senior class. Tables will be set up in the school's mall area and in the school library so students can walk through during their lunch hour and see what intrigues them.“We'll be showcasing a wide range of experiences. Workforce pathways, two- and four-year colleges, apprenticeships, trade programs, military service, even gap year experiences for students.”Among those taking part are the Haverhill Fire Department, Northern Essex Community College, Whittier Regional Vocational Technical School's adult evening program, Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, Rutgers University, Rochester Institute of Technology, MakeIt Haverhill, City Year New Hampshire, New England Tractor Trailer School, Empire Beauty School and PetSmart.Arivella said the idea is to help students answer the question, “What excites them?” rather than just “Where are you going to college?”Haverhill High Schools' Post Secondary Expo takes place Tuesday, April 29Support the show
On this hard rockin', non-stoppin', monster stompin' episode of Yeah! (greatest podcast in the world, 2 months running) we're talking all about Rob Zombie and his song "Superbeast" that was featured on at least 2 videogames! Rob Zombie was on top of the world in 1998 when Twisted Metal 3 released...they even let him sort of be the boss of the soundtrack for the game! He then got tapped again in 2009 to appear on the soundtrack for Brütal Legend alongside Ozzy Osbourne. We get into the weirdness of Mr. Zombie (or is it Mr. Cummings?) and his roots in a sleepy Massachusetts town that coincidentally used to be the home of both Jonathan and Tanya.

WBZ's Madison Rogers reports.
Two weeks after celebrating her successful finish of the 2018 Boston Marathon Kim Dahn was stricken with debilitating stomach pain, ongoing and acute discomfort not readily recognized by her doctors. It turns out she suffers from a rare genetic condition that caused her lower intestinal tract to compress and twist. The condition is called superior mesenteric artery syndrome.Even after over 60 trips to the emergency department and multiple surgeries, her long-term outlook looked bleak until she discovered the possible availability of an international expert. The person who regularly treats the condition through a complicated surgical procedure was expected to visit with another physician expert at a hospital in remote western Virginia for just three days in February. The problem for Kim was getting there and back again since the closest commercial airport was a 40-minute car ride in Roanoke, the weather along the northeast corridor was iffy and she knew she couldn't stand waiting in airport security lines, particularly post-surgery.Haverhill couple Kim and her husband David turned to Angel Flight NE, a charity headquartered at Lawrence Municipal Airport in North Andover, which matches volunteer pilots from across the country with patients in need of medical transport. The service is free.David Dahn was a recent guest on WHAV's “Win for Breakfast” show along with Jonathan Campbell of Angel Flight. The pair explained how the medical transport service was able to get Kim to her surgical appointment and, more importantly, home to complete her recovery in less than half the time of a commercial flight.“We could get there. The logistics weren't too bad getting down, but coming back after surgery was going to be very difficult because there a 40-minute drive when you are post-surgery, trauma and so forth. So, we would we have had to wait not only in the car but at the airport and we would have had go through security lines. There were layovers so what would have been a 10-hour flight we didn't think it was feasible,” Dahn said.Campbell, a retired air traffic controller who “knows how to talk to pilots,” said he has nearly 400 pilots, all instrument rated with over 500 hours of flying time prepared who have access to a variety of aircraft ready to volunteer their time and planes to provide transportation, often at very short notice. He wasn't put off when David Dahn inquired shortly before the trip was to take place.“It was a challenge because, as David touched upon, there were weather issues, there was a relatively short amount of time to arrange things but when he first contacted us we got onto the task at hand and sent our emailed to a lot of our pilots who have longer distance airplanes who can make this trip, hopefully with non-stop. We had a great response from our pilots,” Campbell said.Once the trip dates were set, Kim and David headed to Lawrence Municipal Airport. Pilots, though, are always in charge of trip details because safety is the first priority, Campbell said. Due to a winter storm front, David and Kim and their pilot ended up overnighting in a hotel in Philadelphia so their trip down to Virginia was longer than anticipated.Fortunately, the trip home was a breeze and also was arranged on short notice once Kim's doctors cleared her to leave the hospital following her successful surgery.Campbell said that in addition to his email list of volunteer pilots from around the country, Angel Flight also works with JetBlue and Cape Air when it makes sense to send a client on a commercial flight. He also noted patients must be in stable condition because Angel Flight doesn't provide nursing care. If someone makes an inquiring for a patient who needs medical monitoring, Campbell said he refers them to an air ambulance service.With travel arrangements in another's hand, Support the show

Parents traveling with children in strollers will be allowed to drive their children onto buses operated by MeVa Transit beginning Sunday, April 13, instead of having to break down and fold the unit, in a policy change meant to make the free transit option more attractive.Currently parents must take their child out of their stroller along with any belongings, fold the unit up and then carry the stroller, child and other items onto the bus, explained Noah Berger, MeVa's administrator, during a recent appearance on WHAV's “Win for Breakfast” program. Then once aboard, the parents must stow the stroller under their seat.He said his agency's current policy is enough to discourage the most ardent supporter of public transportation who travels with small children.Just ask Betsaida Jarvis who is the inspiration for the change in policy and an employee of the Haverhill-based bus system. She is also the mother of a toddler.Jarvis found herself on the subway in Boston last summer when an announcement came over the public address system saying that passengers would have to disembark and take a bus because the system wasn't running as far as her stop due to a maintenance issue. She said she started to panic because she knew what was required for riders of her home MeVa system.After negotiating her way out of the subway station to the waiting bus, she tentatively inquired of the bus driver what she should do. He saw the stroller and asked what was the problem. It was in that moment she discovered open strollers are permitted on buses operated by Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority. Because entrances are at street level to accommodate wheelchairs and others with mobility issues, parents with strollers can also come aboard without struggling.“You can bring it open and you can just park it in a designed area that they have and then it was like this is the best thing ever. That's when I spoke to Noah and said ‘We need to implement this in our system because it is just so much easier for mothers,'” she said.As in Boston, MeVa's fixed route buses have entrances designed at street level for easy access for everyone, Berger said. Because MeVa's smaller “on demand” buses have steps, strollers will still have to be folded for those using that option.“I think this is really important because this is us listening to our customers, making sure that we are as welcoming, as accommodating, as enjoyable experience as we possibly can.,” Berger said.Berger said there are some limitation and safety guidelines incorporated in the new policy. For instance, you can't sneak a dog onto a bus in a stroller nor can you bring a load of packages in a stroller and expect to be accommodated. Additionally, wheelchair riders will have priority since the strollers will be parked in the same spaces the open strollers will use, he said.“Once we see how this new policy goes, I'd like to look into expanding it for shopping carts, he said.To make sure the ride is safe for everyone, children will have to be secure in the stroller and won't be allowed to get out while the bus is moving, Berger said. Parents must put the brake on the stroller so it won't roll away.The policy took seven months to formulate because the agency's safety officer, Jessenia Fernandez, needed a chance to research what other systems do and to think through all the bad things that could happen, Berger said. He is confident the new policy will be popular and safe.Support the show
21 year old Maura Murray went missing on February 9, 2004 shortly after crashing her Saturn sedan on a rural road in the small town of Haverhill in New Hampshire. Maura left the crash seen before the police arrived and she has not been seen since. On the podcast we analyze several theories that could explain what happened to Maura, such as her getting lost in the surrounding wilderness or getting picked up by a hitchhiker or even a local resident.Contact us at: weeknightmysteries@gmail.comInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/weeknightmysteriesTikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@weeknightmysteries
Maura Murray (born May 4, 1982) is an American woman who disappeared on the evening of February 9, 2004, after a car crash on Route 112 near Woodsville, New Hampshire, a village in the town of Haverhill. Her whereabouts remain unknown. Murray was a 21-year-old nursing student completing her junior year at the University of Massachusetts Amherst at the time of her disappearance. On the afternoon of Monday, February 9, before she left the university campus, she emailed her professors and work supervisor, writing that she was taking a week off due to a death in the family; according to her family, there had not been a death. At 7:27 pm, a local woman reported a car accident on a sharp corner of Route 112 adjacent to her home. A passing motorist who also lived nearby stopped at the scene, and asked the woman driving the car if she needed assistance; she declined, claiming to have called roadside assistance. Upon arriving home several minutes later, the motorist reported the accident to emergency services. At 7:46 pm, law enforcement arrived at the scene, but the woman had disappeared. Maura Murray was never seen again. #missing #mauramurray #truecrime

A planned freeze of payments toward previously approved federal programs was rescinded Wednesday by the White House Office of Management and Budget after public outcry.CongreA planned freeze of payments toward previously approved federal programs was rescinded Wednesday by the White House Office of Management and Budget after public outcry.Congresswoman Lori Trahan, appearing live Wednesday on WHAV's “Win for Breakfast” program, was one official who criticized what would have been an abrupt halt in food, rent, energy and childcare assistance, among other programs.“It's a reckless, unprecedented power grab by Donald Trump. The consequences have already been swift and severe for the most vulnerable families in our country,” Trahan said in a live interview Wednesday morning.Before the freeze could take effect, Judge Loren L. AliKhan of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia ordered a halt until a hearing Monday. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt acknowledged the court ruling Wednesday in announcing the White House would end the proposed freeze.“In light of the injunction, OMB has rescinded the memo to end any confusion on federal policy created by the court ruling and the dishonest media coverage,” said. “The executive orders issued by the president on funding reviews remain in full force and effect and will be rigorously implemented by all agencies and departments. This action should effectively end the court case and allow the government to focus on enforcing the president's orders on controlling federal spending.”Trahan, however, told WHAV listeners, the freeze order “revealed the money they're going to come after.” Pointing to a grant Haverhill received to hire firefighters and staff a Bradford ladder truck, Trahan noted why local officials are concerned.“They're, of course, concerned about federal firefighter and police officer hiring programs. They've been awarded SAFER grant programs on their merits. They were delivered $4.1 million to hire 16 new firefighters and permanently staff a ladder truck at the Bradford Fire Station. That money is at risk.”The congresswoman said her office received calls came from new moms who “went into a panic” over how they would afford their groceries, parents worried about facing eviction if they lost rent assistance and state officials who, at first, couldn't access the Medicaid portal to draw down money for MassHealth. She said similar calls came from community health centers, Head Start programs, child care centers and those relying on home heating assistance, nursing home reimbursements and money for some teacher salaries. Trahan said the amounts represents $20 billion in the Massachusetts state budget alone.Trahan drew another local parallel—one that threatened the loss of Holy Family Hospitals in Methuen and Haverhill.“Medicaid is not a program that we can seek cuts to, especially when new consider how fragile the hospital infrastructure is in our state after Steward ripped off patients and left town.”She added the president does not have authority under the U.S. Constitution to make unilateral cuts of programs approved by Congress. Trahan suggested Trump needs the money to give the additional tax breaks to billionaires.Trahan plans a press conference Thursday at Greater Lawrence Community Action Council with Lawrence Mayor Brian DePeña, Haverhill Mayor Melinda E. Barrett, Methuen Mayor David P. “D.J.” Beauregard Jr., Greater Lawrence Community Action Council Executive Director and CEO Vilma Martinez-Dominguez, Greater Lawrence Family Health Center interim President and CEO Steven Paris and Community Action CEO Kerri Perry.Support the show

New Life Haverhill
In concert with Martin Luther King Jr. Day Monday, the oldest black church in the Merrimack Valley this Saturday offers its third annual celebration of the life and legacy of the slain civil rights leader.Haverhill's Calvary Baptist Church holds “Sounds of a Movement,” featuring music, history, services and the awarding of the Drum Major for Justice award to Dennis D. Everett Jr. Rev. Kenneth Young of Calvary Baptist Church, who recently appeared on WHAV's “Win for Breakfast” program, says Everett is being honored for his work in prison reform, youth empowerment and restorative justice.“The award is someone who is doing either social justice work in the community or racial justice working in the community. Trying to uplift people living in the margins. We know that Dennis has work not only in Haverhill but in the Merrimack Valley for some time and we appreciate the work that he has done, and wanted to highlight the things that he's doing and make sure he knows that someone is appreciative of the work that he's doing.”Young notes the afternoon program involves singers Christina DeVaughn, who has a master's in opera performance from the Boston Conservatory, gospel singer Kylisha Farris and actress Remani Lazana.“One thing you're going to hear about is Mahalia Jackson—someone who not only he collaborated with, but she collaborated with him. When you hear ‘I have a dream,' speech she's the one you hear in the background who yells out to him ‘tell them about the dream,' and then he starts the repetition of ‘I have a dream today.' So, we want to highlight her in the songs they were singing and those who were participating, whether they were younger or were older. That's the theme for this year,” he adds.“Sounds of a Movement” takes place this Saturday, Jan. 18, opening at 2:30 p.m. and program at 3, at Calvary Baptist Church, at 13 Ashland St., Haverhill.An offering will take place with proceeds going to the Church's scholarship fund and outreach program.Support the show

Welcome dear heathens to Dark Enigma, where we dive into the spookiest, creepiest, and downright bizarre tales from the paranormal and normal world. Today, we're kicking off with a doozy so, buckle up, because this is going to be one hauntingly hilarious ride. Picture it: New England in the late 1800s. We're talking about the era of corsets tighter than a miser's purse strings and top hats that could double as storage units. Nestled in the rural countryside of Massachusetts is our star of the show, Haverhill Manor. Built in 1895 by Jonathan Haverhill, a man who, quite frankly, never met a chandelier he didn't like. Now, Jonathan Haverhill wasn't just any rich guy; he was the rich guy. He made his fortune in textiles—think more money than Scrooge McDuck but with fewer swimming pools full of gold coins… or maybe not. Either way, Haverhill Manor was his crowning achievement, a sprawling estate complete with marble fireplaces, gold leaf trim, and enough rooms to lose an entire extended family in. This place was the epitome of opulence. The kind of house that made the locals' jaws drop and their tongues wag with gossip. Jonathan spared no expense on his grand parties, the kind where you'd find yourself rubbing elbows with the crème de la crème of society while sipping champagne that cost more than your monthly rent. But beneath all that glitz and glamor, there was a dark undercurrent. Jonathan Haverhill had a knack for making enemies. Was it his ruthless business tactics? His ostentatious displays of wealth? Or maybe just his penchant for wearing a monocle unironically? Whatever the reason, he wasn't winning any popularity contests.

On Monday, February 9, 2004, at approximately 7:30 p.m., a black-colored Saturn 4-door sedan vehicle, belonging to 21-year-old Maura Murray, traveled off Route 112 in Haverhill, New Hampshire, and became stuck. The roads in that area of northern New Hampshire were snow-covered at the time. Murray was not present at the crash scene when police arrived and has not been seen nor heard from since. Murray was last seen on surveillance footage earlier in the day at an ATM wearing a dark jacket and jeans. Prior to that, Murray had left the University of Massachusetts Amherst, where she was studying nursing. Murray did not share with others her pending trip to New Hampshire, which was about 2.5 hours away. Murray received prior education at the United States Military Academy at West Point, was an avid runner, and enjoyed hiking in the White Mountains. - FBI.gov MISSING MAURA MURRAY Learn more about your ad choices.

It's a Casual Friday all calls and all clips edition! Sam, Emma and the MR Crew break down the biggest stories of the week. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on the opening of the Erez crossing for aid to Gaza, the US economy, Biden's student debt relief, Trump v. Tish James, and immigration policy, before parsing through More Perfect Union's leaks about major union-busting practices at Mercedes' Alabama plant ahead of a major UAW unionization vote. Next, Sam and Emma look at the recent evolutions in US policy toward Israel's genocide in Gaza, with Blinken revealing that Biden HAS, in fact, had the leverage to force Netanyahu and Israel's hand with aid, as well as using the phrase “immediate ceasefire” (whatever that means to them), before tackling the recent report on Israel's AI-facilitated “Where's Daddy?” program used to target the spouses and children of their military targets, and watching Senator Coons come forward on conditioning aid to Israel. They also talk with Rick from San Francisco about the Affordable Connectivity Program, Scott from Monterey absolutely dismantles Sam's anti-libertarian hypothetical, and Gary explores the concept of a 2024 Kamala Harris candidacy. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma discuss Crowder's potential unfair labor practices case, Nancy Mace beefs with Maria Bartiromo over Kevin McCarthy, and Rosanne Barr offers some quick wisdom for young women (it's just blood libel). Bro Flamingo questions the reappearance of Hillary ahead of the 2024 elections, Dave from Haverhill blue-balls Sam, and Lara Trump offers up some sweet MyPillow talk. RFK defends his spoiler candidacy, PBD and co. have a pitch for Candace Owens, and Ronald Raygun puts on his rose-colored glasses for MR's 20th anniversary, plus, your calls and IMs!

Michael Caparrelli spent 100 hours with David Berkowitz, once known as the “Son of Sam” killer. In today's episode, they discuss Berkowitz's transformation from a serial killer into the remorseful, service-oriented individual and born-again Christian he is today. All of this suggests that during his time in prison, he became a different person, indicating that profound rehabilitation is possible even for those who have committed heinous acts. Dr. Caparrelli explains that through his pastoral and academic experience, he aims to humanize individuals like Berkowitz to understand the factors leading to such violence and possibly prevent future crimes. He is the author of "Monster Mirror: 100 Hours with David Berkowitz, Once Known as Son of Sam," about his extensive interviews with the infamous serial killer, focusing on the psychological and humanitarian aspects rather than the crimes themselves. Our guest, Michael Caparrelli, was a pastor for 16 years who shepherded an inner-city church in Rhode Island that served as a hospital for the mentally ill. His church offered a variety of support groups for people with depression, anxiety, addictions, and grief. He also worked within three prisons as an advocate and counselor for inmates. He now has a PhD in Advanced Studies in Human Behavior and continues his passion through lectures on mental health from a faith-based perspective. He authored 5 books on mental health and travels the nation speaking on this subject within churches, rehabilitation centers, prisons, and schools. He has traveled 18 states and 3 nations over the past few years. He is a professor of behavioral science at two colleges — Northpoint in Haverhill, Massachusetts, and Manchester Community College in New Hampshire. Most recently, he conducted a 100-hour case study on David Berkowitz, once known as the “Son of Sam.” He met with David for 34 sessions to explore the mental health factors behind violence as well as his life of sobriety in prison now. This case study was recently published in a book, “Monster Mirror,” which ranked No. 1 New Release in True Crime on Amazon in October. Our host, Gabe Howard, is an award-winning writer and speaker who lives with bipolar disorder. He is the author of the popular book, "Mental Illness is an Asshole and other Observations," available from Amazon; signed copies are also available directly from the author. Gabe makes his home in the suburbs of Columbus, Ohio. He lives with his supportive wife, Kendall, and a Miniature Schnauzer dog that he never wanted, but now can't imagine life without.
