Is hurling for the under 30 brigade?

The 2013 All-Star awards ceremony had a new home on Friday night. It was in Croke Park for the first time.

The 2013 All-Star awards ceremony had a new home on Friday night. It was in Croke Park for the first time.

GAA headquarters is one of the primary conferencing venues in Ireland, and in Dublin in particular, so why should the GAA not use its own facility? At the behest of the players, things were more informal.

Another difference was that the function was open to the public once the TV event had concluded. Fans got an opportunity to rub shoulders with the stars. That can work in two ways.

There is the genuine fan who is delighted at his fellow county man’s award. Then there in the fan who, perhaps unknowingly, overdoes the attention he gives some players. The new format worked well. It looks like the annual All-Star function has found a new permanent home.

Seventh blank

For the seventh time the awards platform was a Kilkenny free zone. Expectations were modest but a National League title might have seen Kilkenny take one award. That is the least the Cats deserved.

Paul Murphy came closest to taking an award. He can feel particularly disappointed to have missed out.

I have two abiding memories of Friday’s awards. I recognised more Gaelic footballers than hurlers. The principal reason is that the hurlers’ faces are usually covered with a helmet and this time we had no Kilkenny player receiving an award.

In addition, we have yet to recognise most of the successful All-Ireland winning Clare side. Most significantly of all was the age profile of the 15 players who received the hurling awards. Many looked as if they had just moved out of minor ranks. The reality is that this is what has occurred in many instances.

The thought crossed my mind as the players walked up to the podium that hurling is fast becoming a younger man’s game. Are we witnessing the demise of the 30 years plus hurler?

When a young man wins the Young Player and overall Player of the Year awards (and deservedly so) something has changed. Maybe it’s a one-off but a lot will be revealed during the 2014 hurling championship.

All-Stars awards are ultimately a wonderful personal achievement for players but they can also be used to motivate teams for the following year. As Kilkenny, Tipperary and Galway players watched the ceremony at home on Friday, I am sure their thoughts turned to 2014 and a determination that they would be in Croke Park the next time.

Kilkenny connection

Following the live TV ceremony the winners of the Christy Ring, Nicky Rackard and Lorry Meagher awards received their trophies. Few of these young men are known outside their own county so it was a special occasion for them and their families.

During the league and championship their games get no more than a cursory mention in most national media outlets. Also, most received minimal coverage in their own counties. Imagine the excitement five young men who won the Lory Meagher final this year felt as they ascended the podium in Croke Park?

They were representing Warwickshire, their new home. In their wildest dreams could they ever have imagined firstly winning a final in Croke Park, and secondly winning a Lory Meagher award?

Kilkenny may have missed out on a major award, but one young man with strong Kilkenny links was the recipient of a Nicky Rackard award for Sligo.

In the late forties Liam Reidy was one of the many star players with Kilkenny. A young hurler with the same name (the late Liam’s grandson) was winning his second award. For a number of years now Liam Reidy has been a consistent and excellent performer for Sligo.

So, Croke Park was not really a Kilkenny free zone!

Driving in New England Weather

Image from Author: Jackson Latka

        I've lived in New England my whole life and I drive a tiny little breadbox of a jeep. It weighs all of two pounds, and hydroplanes like you would not believe when it rains. I could definitely use some new tires, and the roads in the winter are anything but dry. But what scares me about driving during snowy weather, is other drivers.

      I've witnessed so many cars go off the road today, and many other bad weather days. Luckily today I didn't see anything serious, just people being somewhat careless. It got me thinking; It seems like common sense that when the roads are bad, you adjust your driving. Apparently not.

      For example, never slam on you brakes when he roads are bad. I saw one driver of an SUV try to brake quickly to make a right turn. He just kept going straight forward and ended up having to back up. I just don't get it. If I see Florida plates, then whatever...benefit of the doubt. But when a car with New Hampshire plates slams on their brakes in front of me...And it's not the first snow of the season...Well, I'm sorry, that's just careless.

       Wait, there's more. I was sitting at a traffic light and saw this lady who, for whatever reason, took a pretty fast left turn and ended up spinning out. I have to admit, I did giggle a bit. She didn't hit anything and she kept driving after...But my gosh! The roads were clearly bad (I mean, it had been snowing for hours and plowing wasn't helping), and this lady acted like it was a nice summers day. That's all fine and dandy, until you slide into another car and someone gets hurt!

       I also saw a blue mini van turning out of the grocery store in front of me. They took the turn very slowly, but seemed to have slammed on the gas as soon as their car was perfectly straight. Why? I have no idea. The back end just fishtailed and the van didn't move. Thank God I stopped a ways back while the driver was turning.
       Okay last one. I was on the highway, and up on the right there is a big curving ramp that brings people into the right lane. I was a bit surprised to see a car in the middle of a snow covered hill (is that part of a Christmas song?), about 20 feet from the actual road. Anyway, I didn't see what happened, and I felt bad, but it's just so scary!

       Even when people are driving carefully in bad weather, accidents still happen. Then you have people who seem to disregard the road conditions, which makes it all ten times scarier. Even though my jeep can be difficult in the snow, I know how to handle it. I also know not to be stupid while driving. So no, I'm not afraid to drive in snowy weather; I'm afraid of the drivers around me, driving in snowy weather. Don't get me wrong, I think the majority of drivers are cautious and careful in winter weather...But it only takes that one careless person...

  1. We took it slow and steady and otherwise spent most of the day at home.

    1. Smart! That was originally my plan, but I had to venture out to my dads house.

I'd love to hear your thoughts! Thanks for making my day :)

Wilmington Stole My Heart

I didn't expect to fall in love with it, but I did. Wilmington is the place I'm supposed to be. I know it.

If you didn't know, last Wednesday to Saturday my mom and I took a road trip down to Wilmington, North Carolina. I'm transferring to UNCW in the fall, and wanted to check out apartments and get a feel for the city.

I'm not a city girl, but I'm also by no means a country girl. I grew up in a small beach town that sees tons of tourists in the summer, but feels like a ghost-town in the winter. I'm a bit sheltered to say the least. I'm not a huge fan of big cities. The constant noise, tons of people flooding the sidewalks, traffic...It's not my thing.

Wilmington is the perfect city for me. It feels like a great bit town. The UNCW campus is nestled off of one of the main roads, the historic area is beyond gorgeous, downtown has incredible amounts of shops without the hustle and bustle, and most importantly, the beach is amazing! Everyone seemed so much friendlier than here in New England, and I never once felt overwhelmed. I found an apartment that I'm in love with, and everything is just falling into place.

I'm counting down the days until I move down there. I'll miss all my friends and family, but I'm beyond excited to begin this new journey.

  1. Congrats on your move! It's great that you get to 'know' your future city, to ward off any anxiety and to get you excited for the change :)

  2. Hey Kimberly! I nominated you for the Liebster Award!

  3. It really is an amazing town. This is where that show One Tree Hill was filmed :) Congrats on moving ♥

  4. What fun! I've never been to the town of Wilmington, but I love NC. I'm sure you'll love it! Thanks for stopping by today!

  5. My husband and I LOVE North Carolina! We were even going to move there but just didn't have luck in the work department so we stayed on Long Island. Good luck with your move!

  6. Best of Luck, it looks like you are embarking on a wonderful adventure in a terrific place!

  7. Finding the right place where we perfectly fit is a very beautiful moment for all of us. I've been moving around to different cities quite a lot, living in a different apartment each time, but there's always that one favorite place that I miss. I can genuinely say, I know how you feel about Wilmington. Anyway, I hope you enjoy your new apartment, Kim. Take care! :)

I'd love to hear your thoughts! Thanks for making my day :)

KINO #90 Tuesday 29th August. Another Full House!

Firstly, another huge thank you to all the wonderful people who made it down to Kino 90 on 29th August. It was a balmy Tuesday evening in Islington, at the tail end of a month packed with creative events (including the Edinburgh Fringe), but this didn’t stop us having another jam-packed room for the filmmakers who brought us their creations.

Secondly, the big news for September is that we are on the move again! Sadly, our time at The Bill Murray pub is at an end. We have moved to a slightly bigger venue at Candid Arts, 3 Torrens Street, London EC1V 1NQ. Interestingly, this is the second time Kino has run events on Torrens Street, having previously screened many a film at the Electrowerkz just a few doors further up. Ah, memories!

Look out for Kino 91 on 26th September!

Kino 89…Back with a bang!

When we decided to re-start the Kino Open-Mic film nights after a 12-month break, we prepared ourselves for the hard work ahead: I booked a smaller venue, got in touch with the Kino regulars to see what they were up to, asked friends to come down and ‘make up the numbers’…I planned a Tuesday night event for around 30 people and hoped for a few curious newbies…

So, by 8:15, when Alex and Dan took to the stage, it was something of a shock to have to apologise to people at the back of the queue that we were not going to be able to fit any more people into the room. It was sold out! Not only were there no more seats, there was no standing room either!

So, with a full house, it was now up to the filmmakers to introduce their films, and hopefully to entertain an eager bunch of cinephiles. They did not disappoint!

We couldn’t have hoped for a better start to Kino London in 2017. A special thank you to everyone who made it down, everyone who screened their film, everyone who helped make the night happen. I’m truly grateful. This was my post on Facebook the next day:

Wow, that was…wow. Amazed. Flabbergasted. Such a great night at Kino #89. Some amazing films, and a wonderful (and patient ) audience. We’re really sorry if you came and couldn’t get in, we just weren’t expecting quite so many of you!

And it’s given me a huge confidence boost to prepare for the next one. Kino 90. Only ten away from a century of screenings…:)

(Thank you to Lucky Mask Productions for the pics)

spring cleaningCleaning doesn’t have to be a chore. Here are three ways to make spring cleaning fun for kids.

Everyone loves a good race—why not bring that fun and excitement to chores? Set a timer and on the word “Go” the whole family hurries to get their chores done as fast as possible. (But remember: neatness counts!) Compete against one another to see who can make his bed, do the dishes, or sort the laundry the quickest. Or, work together against the clock—can all the chores be finished in under 2 hours? Keep a running log of times and see who can shave off a few seconds each week!

Your daughter complains every time she has to take out the trash—so switch it up! Using paper, attach a variety of chores to a magnetic dartboard. Then, each family member takes a turn throwing a dart to see which chore he or she is assigned to do that week. Darts not your thing? Put each task on a separate piece of paper and pull one out of a hat—or a cleaning bucket!

Introduce kids to old-fashioned bartering. If their chores are done in a quick and timely manner—and they don’t have to be reminded to do them!—they can stay up 15 minutes later (or whatever time you’ve agreed on). Then, let them try for the jackpot: If they do all their chores without being reminded for the entire week, they get to stay up an hour later on a weekend night.

Traci Paige Johnson, a member of KIWI’s editorial advisory board, is a children’s media expert and mom of three. The co-creator of Blue’s Clues and Super WHY!, she is also the founder of Yummico, which makes “delicious media that’s good and good for you.”

KISS' Gene Simmons, WWE team up to make horror movies

With his KISS makeup on, frontman Gene Simmons always looked a little scary. So maybe this new venture makes sense.

The rocker and reality-show star is teaming with WWE Studios to launch Erebus Pictures, a label that will finance and produce horror movies. The joint venture kicks off with a three-picture deal starting with "Temple," expected to begin shooting this summer.

"The horror genre continues to fascinate me as it proves to be endlessly thrilling and engaging for audiences," said Simmons, who with KISS has sold more than 100 million albums worldwide.

Erebus Pictures is named after the Greek mythological deity that personifies darkness. It has a logical marketing platform in the WWE Network, a subscription-based streaming service known for pro-wrestling shows such as "Monday Night Raw" and "SmackDown" that appeal to primarily young male fans, arguably the core of the horror-movie audience.

WWE says "Temple" is about a team of highly trained operatives who find themselves trapped inside an isolated military compound after its artificial intelligence is suddenly shut down. While investigating the source of the malfunction, the crew begins to experience strange and horrific phenomena as they try to uncover who or what killed the team previously stationed at the compound.

The studio says a director for "Temple" will be announced shortly. Erebus Pictures' second feature will go into production later this year.

WWE Studios' most lucrative film has been "The Call," a 2013 thriller starring Halle Berry, which earned $68 million worldwide.

Connoisseur's Corner

This car has never bluffed me on the road

Mr. G. C. Dey has more sides to him than what meets the eye. A retired police officer, devoted follower of Lord Jagannath and a lover of exotic birds and dogs. In a candid conversation with Joydip Sur, he shares the story of his 1939 Morris 8.

    1. (1)

How did you develop an interest in vintage cars?

    1. I have been interested in vintage cars since I was a child. My father used to drive around in a 1934 Austin 10 in those days. He loved his car and took great care of it. His interest and love for cars brushed on to me. I was also greatly inspired by Field Marshal S.H.F.J. Manekshaw during my interaction with him at a vintage rally.

      1. (2)

How does your family react to your passion for vintage cars?

      1. My wife and children are extremely supportive. They too share my passion for vintage cars. I strongly believe that it is next to impossible to indulge in a passion for vintage cars without the support of your family.

        1. (3)

How did you acquire this car?

        1. This car was lying in dilapidated condition with Mrs. Pratima Debi. Initially she was not willing to sell this car but after months of persuasion I convinced her to sell this car to me at a princely sum of Rs. 3000.

          1. (4)

Who restored the car? How long did this process take?

          1. Krishna Chandra Kar and his son Ganesh Chandra Kar restored the car under my guidance and supervision. It was due to their dedicated effort and relentless hard work that we were able to restore the car to mint condition. The restoration process took around two years to complete.

            1. (5)

How do you maintain this car?

            1. The car is wiped with wet cloth once everyday. The different mechanical parts are cleaned periodically.

(6) How often do you drive the car?
I drive the car atleast once every week. Sometimes even more. I take the car out for drive at 4 a.m. in order to avoid any kind of accidental damage. I generally don’t take out my car during the monsoon.

              1. (7)

Where in Kolkata do you drive this car?

              1. I drive this car almost everywhere within the city. I have also driven this car to Raichak, Digha and Deoghar. This car has never bluffed me on the road.

                1. (8)

What awards and trophies has this car won?

                1. This car has won many awards in the past like the award for the Best Maintained Car built between 1936-39 and Best Restored Car built between 1936-39. I have also won the Fancy Dress awards for the best turnout of car, driver and passengers several times.

                  1. (9)

How do people react when you take this car out for a drive?

                  1. I receive mixed reaction from the on-lookers. There are some who highly appreciate my taste and then there are those who wouldn’t waste a moment to pass ridiculous comments.

Technical Specifications: 1939 Morris 8

                  • 4 Cylinders
                  • Power: 8 Horse Power
                  • 6-Volt Battery
                  • All the electrical parts are of 6 Volts
                  • Distribution is fitted on the top which allows the car to function smoothly even in 4 feet deep water.
                  • The car was also referred to as ‘ Doctor’s Car’ because it could be driven inside the narrowest lanes of the city.

Box Item:
Renowned Bengali writer Shibram Chakraborty who is best known for his humorous stories for adolescents has written about Mr. Dey’s car in one of his work titled Gadai er gari.

Komen News: New Findings in HER2-Positive Breast Cancer

Science Daily reports that a Komen-funded researcher, Dr. Gary L. Johnson, and his team at UNC have found a new way by which science dailyHER2-positive tumors avoid or resist treatment. The discovery, published in the journal CELL Reports, provides evidence to support the potential development of a combination therapy for HER2-positive breast cancer. The combination therapy includes the FDA approved drug lapatinib and a new experimental drug, called a BET bromodomain inhibitor, which works by disrupting the expression of specific genes and could prevent lapatinib-resistant tumors from developing.

More Local Businesses Receiving Small Business Loans

Related Story

MEXICO - A new national report finds that many more national banks are giving out small business loans.  Along with the increase in frequency of loans, the interest rates on those loans are going down.

Local business owner Mel Toeliner said he thinks this change will benefit local business owners.

Toeliner said that in 17 years owning a business, loans have helped him create more than 50 jobs, and he can only imagine how lower rates will help mid-Missouri.

Boone County National Bank's Ryan Bross said more loans are good. However, he warns those hoping to start a new business to remain cautious and prepared emotionally and monetarily.

A representative from Commerce Bank added that banks want to give out loans, and interest rates are going to continue to stay low as they try to compete for local business.

REVIEW: Vickie Howell's Pop Goes Crochet

Vickie Howell's Pop Goes Crochet: 36 Projects Inspired By Icons of Popular Culture
by Vickie Howell
Paperback: 144 pages
Publisher: Lark Books (May 5, 2009)

Vickie Howell is back with a brand new book of funky, original and inspiring patterns... and this time its all about crochet! Vickie Howell’s Pop Goes Crochet pays tribute to popular-culture (past and present) with 36 projects inspired by celebrities in music, film, television and movies.

As with Vickie's books in the past, I find some of the designs a little too funky for my personal style, but all in all, there is a broad range of patterns offered. You'll find patterns for men, women and children... and they include just about everything: hats, bags, sweaters, scarves, socks, vests, skirts, wristlets - even wire jewelry!

Pop Goes Crochet is a great book for young crocheters and seems to be hitting the market at the right time, as crochet is picking up popularity. The photography throughout is bright and modern. Charts of abbreviations, yarn weights and hook equivalents are included, however the book is missing a basic crochet instruction guide. I know that nearly every knitting book includes basic instructions and am quite surprised to see this left out of one of Vickie's books. As someone who does not crochet, I find this to be unappealing to others like myself who may be interested in learning how.

About the Author Vickie Howell's projects have been featured in many newspapers, books and magazines. She also has appeared on numerous TV shows, including The Today Show. Vickie is host of DIY's Knitty Gritty and writes a regular celebrity column for Vogue Knitting's Knit. 1 magazine. Her previous books include New Knits on the Block, Not Another Teen Knitting Book and Knit Aid. A self-proclaimed crafty gRRRL, Vickie Howell has been involved in the creative arts for as long as she can remember.

Welcome to Trail Guide, your host through the wilds of the 2016 presidential campaign. It's Sunday, Jan. 17, and here's what we're talking about:

Live video: Democratic debate from South Carolina

What would be the role of Bill Clinton in a Hillary Clinton administration?

Hillary Clinton has hinted that should she win the 2016 presidential race, her husband, former President Clinton, could have a role in her administration.

"It will start at the kitchen table. We will see how it goes from there," Clinton said in Sunday night's debate, drawing a loud applause.

"When it comes to the economy and what was accomplished under my husband's leadership in the '90s ... you bet I'm going to ask for his leadership. I'm going to ask for his advice and I'm going to use him as a goodwill emissary to go around the country," she added.

Bill Clinton, whose poll numbers remain positive with the American electorate, has hit the trail in recent weeks to campaign for his wife in the early nominating states of Iowa and New Hampshire.

Bernie Sanders would rather just focus on the issues

Pressed on Sunday night to complain about former President Clinton's extramarital affairs while commander in chief, Bernie Sanders instead pivoted to grouse about the media and label the inquiry all but a "gotcha" question.

"I cannot walk down the street without being told how much I have to attack Hillary," he said. He called Bill Clinton’s behavior “deplorable,” but said he was committed to debating Hillary Clinton on the issues.

It's not the first time Sanders has criticized campaign coverage. He's been complaining since the beginning of his White House run:

Democrats want more to be done on climate change

 (Mic Smith / Associated Press)
(Mic Smith / Associated Press)

For Republicans including front-runner Donald Trump, climate change is nothing more than a hoax. But for the Democratic presidential hopefuls onstage Sunday night in South Carolina, the effects of climate change are real.

"I was home in Burlington, Vt., on Christmas Eve. The temperature was 65 degrees. People in Vermont know what's going on; people who did ice fishing where their ice is no longer there on the lake understand what's going on," said Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders. "The debate is over. Climate change is real."

He accused Republicans of being "owned by the fossil fuel industry."

"They don't even have the courage or decency to listen to the scientists," Sanders said.

Former Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley urged his rivals to do more when it comes to combating climate change.

"I would like to challenge and invite my colleagues here on this stage to join me in putting forward a plan to move us to a 100% clean electric energy grid by 2050," he said.

Bernie Sanders is pressed to explain how he'd pay for the new programs he wants

Hillary Clinton sharpened her long-running attack on Bernie Sanders for championing an agenda that includes tax increases on middle-class families to pay for all the new government programs he is proposing.

“There are serious questions about how we are going to pay for what we want our country to do,” she said. “I am the only candidate standing here tonight who has said I will not raise taxes on the middle class. I want to raise incomes, not taxes.”

Sanders was unrepentant. He said most of the programs he is proposing would be funded through new levies on the wealthy and the financial industry.

“This country and the middle class bailed out Wall Street,” he said. “Now it is Wall Street’s time to help the middle class.”

Both Sanders and Clinton accused each other of not documenting in detail how the funding plan would work. And both insisted that they have provided a full explanation.

But the tax clash was sharpest on the issue of healthcare. The Sanders proposal to provide Medicare-style healthcare to every American would be funded with new taxes, including on the middle class. Sanders said it was disingenuous of the Clinton campaign to suggest this was an onerous burden.

“I am disappointed that Secretary Clinton’s campaign has made this criticism,” he said. “It is a Republican criticism. Secretary Clinton does know a lot about healthcare, and she understands, I believe, that a Medicare-for-all, single-payer program will substantially lower the cost of healthcare for middle-class families.”

He said they would pay a slight increase in taxes, but save more than $5,000 in health insurance costs. “A little bit more in taxes, do away with private health insurance premiums,” he said. “It is a pretty good deal."

NBC’s Andrea Mitchell, one of the moderators, pressed Sanders on the point, noting that he had vowed earlier in the campaign not to raise taxes on the middle class for anything other than funding a paid family leave program.

“It is not breaking my word,” Sanders said. “It is one thing to say I am raising taxes; it is another thing to say we are doing away with private health insurance premiums. … There are huge savings in what your family is paying.”

Bernie Sanders explains his socialist outlook

Why the Democrats are cautioning that the Iran nuclear deal is only a first step

Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders both praised the landmark nuclear deal with Iran during Sunday's debate but cautioned that it does not mean the doors have been thrown wide open on newly close relations with the Islamic republic.

Clinton said the new sanctions that the Obama administration slapped on Iran on Sunday, unrelated to its nuclear program, showed that there are several knotty problems the two countries are staring down as they edge toward a new relationship after decades of acrimony.

"I was responsible for getting those sanctions imposed," Clinton said, referring to her time as President Obama's top diplomat.

Here's what Saturday's implementation of the nuclear deal means for U.S.-Iran relations and the future of the Middle East:

Donald Trump really did call climate change an invention of China

That's what Bernie Sanders charged during Sunday's debate. And he was right. Trump made the claim in 2012, well before his current run for the White House:

The back-and-forth between Clinton and Sanders on healthcare

During Sunday's debate, Hillary Clinton targeted Bernie Sanders' refusal to provide details on how his healthcare plan would be funded until two hours before the debate.

“When talking about healthcare, details really matter and therefore we have been raising questions,” she said. “He didn’t like that, his campaign didn’t like it either and tonight he’s come out with a new plan.”

“The Democratic Party and the United States has worked since Harry Truman to get the Affordable Care Act passed,” Clinton said. “We finally have a path to universal healthcare. We have accomplished so much already. I do not want to see the Republicans repeal it. And I don’t want to see us to start over again with contentious debate. I want us to defend and build on the Affordable Care Act and improve it.”

Sanders counted by pointing out that he helped pass the Affordable Care Act and labeled Clinton’s characterization of his healthcare efforts "nonsense."

“What a Medicare-for-all program does is finally provide in this country healthcare for every man, woman and child as a right,” Sanders said.

“We are spending far more per person on healthcare than the people of any other country."

Clinton called the Affordable Care Act “one of the greatest accomplishments of President Obama, of the Democratic Party and of our country. ... There are things we can do to improve it, but to tear it up and start over again, pushing our country into that type of contentious debate, I think is the wrong direction.”

Sanders retorted: “We are not going to tear up the Affordable Care Act. I helped write it. But we are going to move on top of that to a Medicare-for-all system.”

He said the reason the U.S. has not moved in the direction of other major democracies and imposed universal healthcare is because of a corrupt campaign finance system enabling insurance companies and pharmaceutical firms to stop it.

What the leading Democratic candidates would do to combat polarization in the country

In President Obama's State of the Union address last week, he said his biggest regret was that "rancor and suspicion between the parties has gotten worse instead of better."

On Sunday, Democratic presidential hopefuls were asked what they would do to reverse that decline in bipartisanship.

"I will go anywhere to meet with anyone at any time to find common ground," said Hillary Clinton.

While Clinton holds a strong lead nationally in the race to become the party's nominee, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders is polling strong in the early nominating states of Iowa and New Hampshire.

Sanders, who has touted a populist message that hits heavily on income inequality, said partisanship and polarization are at an all-time high because Congress is "owned by big money."

"We have got to make Congress respond to the needs of the people," said Sanders.

Here's what Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders are fighting about over healthcare

Although Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders both want healthcare for all, they have repeatedly clashed over the best way to reach that goal.

They went at it again during Sunday's debate, when Sanders defended his vision for a new universal healthcare system.

Sanders has proposed what's known as a single-payer system, in which the federal government would essentially act as the country's insurance company. That's similar to how healthcare works in Canada and some European countries, and the Vermont senator said it will help drive down costs and ensure everyone receives medical coverage.

Sanders had come under fire from Clinton for not releasing more details on how the proposal would work, and how it would be funded -- something he did just hours before Sunday's debate. The former secretary of State says there's no way to pay for such an expensive program without raising taxes on the middle class, something she has ruled out.

Clinton also says Sanders is wrong to reopen the healthcare debate after Democrats already successfully enacted the Affordable Care Act, which leaves in place a system of private and employer-sponsored insurance.

"We have accomplished so much already," she said Sunday. "I do not want to see the Republicans repeal it, and I don't want to see us start over again with a contentious debate."

She has called for modest changes to the law, such as lowering the cost of prescription drugs and protecting patients from surprise medical bills.

Sanders rejected Clinton's claim that he would scrap Obamacare.

"We're not going to tear up the Affordable Care Act. I helped write it," he said. "But we are going to move on top of that to a Medicare-for-all system."

It’s not that Republicans and Democrats hate each other. That’s a mythology from the media.

Sen. Bernie Sanders, on Congress

We need a revolution in this country in terms of mental health treatment for drug abuse.

Sanders offers detailed plan on policing, an evolution for his campaign

Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders was asked during Sunday's debate how he would address the conflicts between police and civilians that have roiled communities across the country over the last two years and given rise to the Black Lives Matter movement.

Sanders laid out a multi-point plan, calling for automatic federal investigations if a police officer kills someone, and for demilitarizing the look of police forces as well as diversifying their ranks.

It was a detailed proposal that was a far cry from earlier in the campaign, when Sanders was caught flat-footed when interrupted by protesters at a campaign event. The Times' Kurtis Lee and Evan Halper examined how the Black Lives Matter movement forced the Democratic presidential hopefuls to rethink their platforms:

Bernie Sanders’ record on guns is more complicated than Hillary Clinton is making it out to be

Hillary Clinton has repeatedly criticized Bernie Sanders' record on guns, one of the rare issues where she finds herself to the left of the Vermont senator.

"He has voted with the NRA, with the gun lobby, numerous times," Clinton said in Sunday night's debate, before listing a series of his votes.

As a congressman, Sanders voted against the Brady bill, the landmark background check legislation that President Bill Clinton signed into law in 1993. According to PolitiFact, Sanders voted against various versions of the bill as it weaved its way through Congress, keeping his word to rural voters in Vermont, a state with a strong hunting culture.

More recently, though, Sanders backed gun control measures in the aftermath of the Newtown, Conn., school shooting. He voted for a 2013 amendment to ban assault weapons and another to expand background checks. Both of those measures, however, failed to advance.

Sanders has received failing grades from the National Rifle Assn.

Much of Clinton's recent criticism has focused on a 2005 vote to provide legal immunity to gun manufacturers and dealers. Sanders has said he's willing to take a new look at the issue, and on Saturday night he backed legislation that would roll back some of the protections. Clinton said she was "pleased to hear that Sen. Sanders has reversed his position on immunity."

Sanders defended his previous vote, saying there were "some good provisions" in the 2005 bill, and called Clinton's attacks "very disingenuous."

"As a senator from a rural state that has virtually no gun control, I believe that I am in an excellent position to fight for sensible gun legislation," he said.

Clinton's team has called it a "debate-eve conversion."

What Democrats plan to do if they win the presidency

All three candidates were asked what they would do in their first 100 days in the White House. Here's what they sketched out:

In opening remarks, Democrats invoke Martin Luther King Jr.

Just before debate, Bernie Sanders unveils plan to pay for healthcare

Bernie Sanders has been talking a lot on the campaign trail about the shortcomings of Obamacare, pushing to replace it with a European-style healthcare system. But until Sunday night, he hadn’t explained how he would pay for it.

Under pressure from Hillary Clinton's campaign, Sanders stepped forward with the list of tax hikes that his health plan would require. Every family earning above $28,800 would pay. Some quite a bit.

The plan would be funded, for the most part, through a new “healthcare premium tax” of 2.2% on income, along with a 6.2% “healthcare payroll tax” to be paid by employers. The new levies join several other tax increases Sanders has planned, most of them targeted at higher earners.

Sanders said the plan would ultimately lead to substantial savings for middle-class Americans, reducing their need for costly private insurance. His campaign projects that average medical care costs for a family earning $50,000 would drop from more than $6,000 to less than $500.

The details were unveiled just two hours before a Democratic debate in which healthcare is likely to be a central issue. Sanders produced the plan as Clinton has accused him of misleading voters about the cost that would be involved in running such a government medical care system.

As Hillary Clinton seeks to weaken his upstart bid for the Democratic presidential nomination, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders is primed to quell the onslaught of criticism over his record on guns.

While the two offer few major ideological differences, the Clinton campaign has sought to cast Sanders as out of touch with the party on the issue in recent days, ratcheting up its attacks while polls show support for Sanders nearly matching hers in Iowa -- the state that opens the nominating process.

During debates and at town hall-style events, Clinton, the former secretary of State, has repeatedly castigated Sanders for voting in favor of a 2005 law that protects firearms manufacturers and dealers from being held liable when their products are used to commit crimes. Then-Sen. Clinton did not back the proposal.

He's a nasty guy. Nobody likes him. Nobody in Congress likes him. Nobody likes him anywhere once they get to know him.

Yes, you do have the right to see the Will. It i likely filed in the Surrogate's Court in the county in which she died. It is a public record and you have a right to go to the Surrogates Court and look at it yourself. You also have the right to Contest the Will or the Executor if you wish if you think something is being done that is wrong or harmful to the Estate. What you really need to do immediately is consult with an Estate Lawyer who knows how to deal with these type of matters. You may have a chance to retain the house, or not, depending upon the overall shape of the Estate and how much you are to share in the Estate, if at all. Good luck.

This Drone Footage Of The Arctic Is Like Looking At Life On Another Planet.

Somerset Island in Nunavut, Canada, is a hidden gem. As part of the arctic archipelago, this uninhabited paradise is home to some of the most beautiful wildlife in the north. Every year, thousands of beluga whales congregate in this remote region. Polar bears, snowy owls, arctic foxes, and musk oxen among others, call this area home.

Photographer Nansen Weber shot a video that provides a glimpse at the stunning landscape and its animals. Weber is the first person to do it using a drone. Although, the task was not easy. Most drones cannot fully function in the harsh cold temperatures and strong winds; it took many tries to get this video as the drones kept crashing.

The 24-year-old hopes the short film will make people appreciate the wildlife in this part of the world. “It's something that we should look into and hopefully save, because it might not be there in the future,” says Weber.

I asked the question on Crackbook If you came with instructions what would they say? and here are the answers:

D:Be nice or I’ll kill you.
Teri: Be kind.
Gemini: Warning Not as sweet as it looks… 😉
Tracy: Warning! May explode without notice!!
Barb: Handle with care. Lifetime warranty (does not cover defects). 😛
Mr. Fab: Handle with care. More delicate than would appear.
NYC Watchdog: Feed once a day. Do not machine wash. Cuddle hourly.

And here are ones I’d consider for my manual:

Caution: Some parts are larger than they appear.
Warning: May change mind in any given moment.

Smell the Salt Air

I have to say flying with my son can be a joy. Our flight home was uneventful and I was able to actually consume the entire $400 mini bottle of wine purchase from cheap ass Alaska Air. The boy sat quietly in his seat the entire flight. We fed him the whole time and he was happy. He shared his pretzels with Steve the Cat, who is also now a seasoned flier.

We were greeted at the airport by the trusty in-laws and they were a welcomed sight. Someone else to wrangle my child for a brief moment. We dined at Anthony’s in Des Moines and the minute I got out of the car I knew I was home. I could smell the wonderful salt air.

Flying in to Seattle always makes me appreciate my city so much more. I love the moment you pass through the clouds and you look down upon the islands that dot the sound. We flew right over Tacoma and it was odd to say, “ohh! look, I can see the bridges.” We have 2 now. The landscape is covered in green hills and as you get closer to the ground you see exactly how tall our trees truly are. There are certain things about the northwest that make you love it so much. The trees are one of my favorites.

The best part about stepping off the airplane… the weather. We were welcomed by partly cloudy skies and 71 degrees. Ahh! Heaven. So long swoobs!

Your one-stop
financing resource

Upgrading your lighting has never been easier

Upgrade. Grow.
Stay competitive.

You want to upgrade, modernize, and grow your company. But big plans often require a cash outlay that isn’t readily at hand. Our team of lighting and financial experts can help you overcome investment hurdles by designing the perfect lighting system and crafting a financial plan that fits your budget.

Lighting Capital Financing

Why finance your project with Philips Lighting Capital?

Providing 100% financing for all equipment and project related costs, with no upfront investment

Upgrade your lighting system today
No upfront investment, 100% financing for all equipment and project costs

Providing 100% financing for all equipment and project related costs, with no upfront investment

Enjoy a net positive cash flow
Your monthly payments are completely covered by your energy cost savings

Providing 100% financing for all equipment and project related costs, with no upfront investment

Preserve cash and credit lines
Access the capital you need through our global network of financial partners

Providing 100% financing for all equipment and project related costs, with no upfront investment

Get the perfect lighting system for your business
We work with you to design a solution that meets your specific business needs and objectives

Which one suits you best?

Our perfect-fit financial services accommodate your business needs, protect your cash flow, and enable your business to grow. We can arrange the right financial structure for your organization—from a small-scale lighting retrofit to upgraded street lighting for an entire city, from a managed services contract to a complex public-private partnership.
1. Why does Philips introduce finance options to their customers?

To enable them to take advantage of new, more energy efficient Lighting technology without having to make an upfront investment.

2. Why should I lease equipment rather than purchase it outright?

When acquiring a car or a forklift-truck, it is very common to spread the investment over a certain period in which the vehicles will be used. Why should it be any different for assets like office equipment or LED technology? Leasing (or ‘financing’) lets you pay as you use the equipment, not on day one.

3. How do I know if financing is the right choice for my business?

If any of the following apply to your situation, we recommend talking to your local Philips Lighting Capital contact about a financing option that fits your company’s budgetary requirements:

a. The equipment you need will last for many years

b. You’d like to find a more efficient way to manage cashflow

c. You’re looking for off balance sheet financing and possible tax advantages

d. You want to finance 100% of the project costs

4. What is a finance lease?

Finance lease is a contract for the use of specific equipment for a specific period of time (generally 24-72 months) against fixed monthly payments that are agreed upon in advance. A finance lease generally combines spreading the investment over this time period, with the transfer of ownership upon making the final payment. The user (“lessee”) has the intention to become owner of the equipment at the end of the financing contract.

5. I understand the value of financing, but we cannot afford to incur additional monthly expenses

The Pay as you save plan is specifically designed so that your periodic payments will not exceed energy savings. We do this by matching the financing period with your payback period.

6. In case my house bank can offer better/comparable interest rate - what’s the added value that Philips can bring? Why shouldn’t I go directly to my bank, but to Philips Lighting Capital?

a. Will your bank finance these projects?

b. Will your bank allow non-hardware costs to be included?

c. Is there a down payment requested by your bank?

d. Is there any additional security required by your bank (e.g. personal guarantee)?

Philips cooperates with a number of financing partners, has a very good insight into market offerings and can probably achieve scale benefits from a large portfolio of projects. Lighting financing is on top of the existing working capital facilities (credit lines) with your bank, so that these remain untouched by the new lighting project. Still, if a customer prefers to arrange his own financing solution via a house bank, that is fine as well.

7. What are the criteria for the finance lease?

a. Minimum transaction size

b. Minimum and maximum financing period

c. Customer specifics like legal name, location, etc.

d. Financial health of the customer

8. Can I also spread payment over a longer term e.g. 8 years?

For most lighting projects such a tenor would be too long. Case-by-case it can be investigated for larger transactions/ lighting projects with long technical lifetimes.

9. How do I know if I will qualify for a lease? What are the criteria used for a credit decision (evaluating the financing application)?

a. Our financing partners make credit decisions based upon the customer’s ability to pay and their credit history

b. Our financing partners prefer to consider established businesses with a good credit record that have been in existence for a minimum of 3 years.

10. How long does the credit process take?

Provided we have all the required application and financial statements, credit decisions are generally taken within a week.

11. Do I need to submit financial statements with every application?

It depends how fast the customer’s financial situation is changing. If it is stable then there’s generally no need for additional submissions within the same operating year.

12. What happens at the end of the lease term?

That depends on the details of the contract. Our lease agreements include clear end-of-lease options that vary depending on the type of financing your customer requested. In general, a customer has three options at the end of the contract: buy the equipment (at an agreed price or at “Fair Market Value”), extend the contract by another year, or return the equipment. In a finance lease situation, it is common that the customer buys the equipment for a small/ symbolic amount.

13. Is the lease cancellable?

The lease contract is in general not cancellable for the term of the lease (24-72 months), unless there is a clear “early termination” clause including financial consequences agreed.

14. Can I add or upgrade products during the lease term?

Yes, equipment can be added on or upgraded at any time during the term of the agreement. Depending on the customer’s needs, this can be done using an “add-on” schedule structured to end at the same time as the original term or a different term.

15. Does equipment leasing provide tax benefits to my business?

Leasing is advantageous to most businesses in that monthly lease payments can be deducted as an operating expense, reducing your taxable income.*

(*Check with your financial advisor)

16. Who are your financing partners?

We work with several global banks and lease companies, who can provide a full range of financial products including standard leases. In addition, we can work with strong players in local markets.

17. What happens if the customer defaults on the lease?

Our financing partner will pursue legal remedies that are in the lease contract, repossess the equipment, and/or commence collection activities. Philips is not a party to these proceedings, since the financing arrangements are between the customer and the financing partner.

Random Thoughts…and otherwise

The Gift of ‘Ah’ in My Journey to Minimize

This afternoon, I went swimming. Which may not sound like a big deal—just a short drive down the street and a leap into the water—but for me the trip was significant and monumental, as it’s what I had planned to do every day in February, and didn’t.

February was going to be my month: For the first time in a very long time I would be alone. And because of this, I was going to spend those 28 days in an intentional, personal detox and cleanse, from a particularly challenging 2016—a revive, a refuel, a re-me. I was going to sleep and swim and practice yoga, and read and write and re-energize. I was going to take care of myself, because, unfortunately and ridiculously, that is not something I usually do. Or, do well.

I plan to, intend to and want to do these things. Often, I set aside time, but usually at the last minute I don’t. Not because I’m lazy or a slug or a quitter (sometimes I’m one, sometimes I’m all), but because I’m a well-practiced procrastinator who is easily distracted from doing things that bring me joy. I’m distracted, like many, by the voice in my head that says You should really be doing, or looking after, ____. And, it’s not a lot of fun. At all.

So, I had plans for February, big plans, joyful plans, and, then, well…

Sometime around the night of January 31, while I was looking for something to watch before bed, I happened upon Minimalism: A Documentary About the Important Things. And, that was that: Less than half-way through I looked at my swim bag sitting on my dresser, looked back at my screen, and the voice in my head said, rather loudly: You should really be doing this. And I listened.

For every one of the 28 days of February, with laser-like precision and intense, un-wavering focus, I was not lazy or a slug or a quitter: I conquered. Victoriously. Every room, closet, drawer, cabinet, surface, paper, nook and cranny of my life, including, most-importantly, the four large boxes of ‘Childhood Memories’ in my garage, which I have carted with me throughout 20-some moves in my adult life alone; the boxes of school work and trinkets and mementos from my adult daughters’ childhoods; hundreds upon hundreds of photographs; and the two large boxes, also in my garage, filled with my late-parents’ belongings—the boxes I’ve been petrified of touching, the boxes that have haunted me day and night for the past eight months.

I loosely followed The Minimalists 21-Day Journey into Minimalism, read every post and every single additional essay included, from beginning to end. Sometimes twice, sometimes more. And, while lots of it was easy—turfing a toaster, a lamp, unworn clothes, travel mugs, scores of mini shampoos, soaps and conditioners, my daughter’s wisdom teeth (no explanation), picture frames, endless, endless crap—some tasks were extremely hard, a lonely, devastating, sometimes laugher-filled, often soul-crushing, emotional journey.

My saving grace and champion and muse, was a simple passage I found it one essay, entitled “Letting Go of Sentimental Things” which validated the truth of which I have known all along:

“Our memories are within us, not within our things.
Holding on to stuff imprisons us; letting go is freeing.”

And those are the words that carried me to the pool today: The voice is quiet, for once, I am free.

I spent close to three of the four weeks sorting through my memories, and, I will not lie, or make it pretty, it was fucking hard. However, and quite beautifully, in the most unexpected way, I finally allowed myself to grieve. Alone, I didn’t need to be strong; I could allow myself to be and feel like the little girl, me, in the pictures I found. The girl who’s spent both years and months attempting to make sense and accept the loss of those from which she came.

And, that, those three weeks of spent emotion, have been the greatest gift I have ever given myself. Raw. Cathartic. Healing.

Again (I suggest you tattoo this to your brain):

“Our memories are within us, not within our things.
Holding on to stuff imprisons us; letting go is freeing.”

This is what I’ve learned: In the heaviness of life, and the tribulations we come to endure as our time marches on, we sometimes forget where we came from. We get caught up in the minutia, the noise, the hurts and losses that multiply amongst and on top of each other, that become a darkness and a burden and a shackle, that, somewhere along the way, overshadow our truth.

Or, much simpler, our truth gets lost in our crap—material and emotional.

I have a beautiful life. It began here, in the joy found in this picture…

I’m there too, you just can’t see me: I’ll draw my first breath from this beautiful world five-months after they danced.

Soon I’d have this…
and then this…and this… and this…

And all I need are all of these thises, a small box of a mementos, a broach in my drawer, a reminder to be grateful and the words “You Are Loved.”

On the 28th day, after many trips to the thrift shop, I took a tote to my daughter’s, stowed a tote for my other and posted two boxes to my brother: My heaviness lifted, the things I held for too long, with love and fond memories, gifted to those to whom they really belong.

And, then I sat for a moment in my car outside of the post office and went ‘Ah.’ Ahhhhhh.

Ah is a feeling, not just a word. Ah is a cage door opened to freedom. Ah is a light. A bright shining light. Ah is a sensation. Ah is awe. And, awe, are the memories within me, forever and ever, no longer within my things.

And, then, this afternoon, because there is joy, I went swimming. And I was free.

Minimize Me, Maximize Me
Less Will Be More in 2017
The Minimalists  (Highly recommended: Perhaps required reading for a lighter, more meaningful life.

Toolchain to build voipong?

Discussion in 'Tomato Firmware' started by brunes, Sep 26, 2007.

  1. brunes

    brunes LI Guru Member

    Hello. I am not sure if this belongs in the Tomato forum, but since that is the firmware I am running I will post it here.

    I was wondering if anyone can help me with some kind of general instructions for building a binary to run under the tomcato firmware. I want to build a version of voipong ( http://www.enderunix.org/voipong/ ). This app sniffs the wire and decodes and saves all SIP traffic as wav files.

    My desire is to build a version of this to run on my WRT54G and save the wav files to a mounted SMB share.

    I do not know at this point if the router will be able to handle the CPU load, or even what the CPU load would be. This is because I can't figure out how to get a compiled and working version of the thing. I built a complete FreewRT toolchain on my desktop, but when I copy the built static binary over it does not run successfully. I assume this is because of some kind of difference between tomato and FreeWRT.

    Tomato is using the Linksys official toolchain/kernel which is pretty old, you need to compile it under that toolchain or it will not function correctly...

    I am by no means and expert around here but after taking a quick look at VOIPong's site I found this:
    And considering that WRT's only have only 200Mhz processor (version 2.0 and above), I doubt this will work?

WRT54GL Setup Question

Discussion in 'Cisco/Linksys Wireless Routers' started by jackwlong, Aug 14, 2009.

  1. jackwlong

    jackwlong Addicted to LI Member

    This router is working fine, connecting 6 computers and one Lexmark C543dn Network Printer. The printer, which also works fine, is set to fixed IP In order to sign up for Lexmark Rewards program, they run a web software program that is supposed to find and identify the printer. It reports that it is unable to find a printer. Is there a setting in the router that could be blocking the search? How can I change it temporarily until this signup is complete? Thanks for any help. I got none from Lexmark after 42 minutes on the phone.
  2. irootsk

    irootsk Addicted to LI Member

    Have you setup port forwarding for your printer?
    Did you change port number of your printer? If not, default port number should be 9100. Have a look into user manual.
    So you need to forward port 9100 to IP
    Then it should work and complete registration.
  3. jackwlong

    jackwlong Addicted to LI Member

    Thanks for your reply. I followed your suggestion, but it made no difference. The program doesn't actually say it can't find a printer, it says it "encountered a problem". The printer will produce a printout called "Menu Settings" that is supposed to include an "SID" number (which is required to MANUALLY complete the registration), but it is not there. A demo printer in the store DOES include that number, so it's possible my printer is defective. I'll pursue that with the dealer.

    Thanks again.

  4. jackwlong

    jackwlong Addicted to LI Member

    Exchanged the printer for another one. Problem solved.

WRTP54G - call forwarding

Discussion in 'Cisco/Linksys Wireless Routers' started by AlexandreJesus, Jun 11, 2007.

  1. Voipbuster recomends Linksys WRTP54G, the wireless and internet connections is working nicely and can make it calls with the voipbuster setup in the router settings and the analogue phone but still can`t make the phone receive a call. Where i put the the number for the Call Forward, and will be 351(country)281381xxx? Also i need to activate something?

    stangri LI Guru Member

    Try playing with keepalive and/or registration timeout settings (set the latter to 360 instead of the default 3600). For the call forward -- you need to set this in voipbuster setup, I don't think WRTP54G can use PSTN for voip->pstn call forwarding.
