STATE HOUSE — As the medical marijuana industry in Massachusetts continues to grow, the state's fifth registered dispensary plans to open for sales this week in Lowell.
The first of Patriot Care's three Bay State dispensaries will open at 70 Industrial Ave. East, with additional facilities planned to open later this year in Greenfield and downtown Boston.
Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, the conservative and provocative judge who died at age 79, was known for pointed language, fiercely held opinions and a sardonic wit that at times invoked fairy tales, foreigners and hippies.
Since joining the court in 1986, Scalia weighed in – often colorfully and memorably – on the major issues of the day, including guns, gay marriage and the death penalty.
