Welcome to Psychic Medium, Tony Green. I am Tony Green, the Psychic Medium. Okay, so here's just a few little announcements before we get started. I will never reach out to anybody for a reading, not on any social media venue, not on anything. If you are interested in a reading, please contact me either through my business number or my website, which is tealnig.info and my business number, which is<PHONE_NUMBER>. I do not give email or text readings at all, not even to my clients who have been to me before. The way my readings work is you either show up in my office or you call me on the phone. Don't get scammed. There's a lot of scammers out there, don't get scammed. If you would like a reading, that is how it works with me. I am not the type of person to say, I'm going to email your reading or let me tell you, when you call or we have a session, it is a session where you are asking me the questions about your life that are the most important or connecting with the relatives or loved ones on the other side that are most important to you. Okay, having said that, you can connect with me on social media via, I'm on Facebook, TikTok, Instagram and right here on YouTube. You can watch this show on many streaming stations, Most Podcasts, Rude Rangers TV, WSCS and YouTube, YouTube. And you can also, I don't know, there's just a lot of announcements that I don't take notes of that I should. I'm the author of seven books, they're available Amazon.com and all of this information is also available on my website. So how I say hi to Stevie, hey Stevie, I hope you're having a good day today. And now here we go. I am going to be taking a lot as many possible, as possible callers today. And when I do take a caller, I'll say your area code. Please let me know what's your name, where you're calling from and your question or connection and please make your question kind of pinpoint and clear because I am on a timeframe here and I do try to get to as many callers as possible. If you're listening, if you're watching on YouTube and you've posted a question, I'm going to be getting to your questions very soon. Now, if you would like to ask your question on air or if you're watching the show and you would like to join the show live, you can join the show live every Monday and or Wednesday at noon central on YouTube or by calling in eight, four, five, two, seven, seven, nine, one, three, one. I think I've said just about everything I need to say. Okay, real quick. Hey, Terry, Heather. Oh, my series going to kick in because I just heard it. Nope, nope. I don't even know where that. You'll need to unlock your iPad first. They're always listening. That's all I can say. And I just lost my chat. I don't know what I did on YouTube. I am so sorry, everybody. I just, it just went full screen. I don't know how to fix that. I am not a techie, not a techie at all. So I have, oh, there, I don't know what I did. I don't think I did anything. I think somebody's, I've got a ghost in the machine. I don't even know. Okay, we're gonna start with a clearing and this clearing is going to be for self love this morning because, well, I think we all need a little self love. So a self love. Okay, here we go. We love ourselves unconditionally. We're gonna get a no. We're gonna clear that. And then throughout the show, I'll be doing a number of other clearings. I did some clearings and uploaded them this morning on TikTok, my TikTok pages at psychictony. So if you wanna go there for those clearing, you can go right ahead and do that. And all of that, if there are 60 seconds or less. Okay, so Heather wants to know should she stay at her current position or go to another one in the company? The new position she has heard is more stressful but better money. Okay, so the new position is a little bit more stressful. That is accurate. However, that all depends on what level of stress each person can handle. And of course, if you're getting paid more, sometimes some things, you're getting paid more because of what you're expected to deal with. Heather, can Heather handle this stress? Yeah, I think after six months, it'll get pretty annoying for you and you won't want to anymore but you will be able to handle it. So in the end, you'll be happier where you are if you stay where you are. However, if you take the new position after six months, you can also relocate again in the company if you need to step back into the position that you have or go into a different position with the company. That's kind of a personal call that you would like, you would need to make, but you can handle the stress for at least six months. That's what I'm getting on that. Okay, I am going to hopefully this is gonna work this time when I go to do this. Hey, Fon, hey, Terry.  So anybody taking tests, exams, practicals written, whatever they are, we're gonna clear that now to we are gonna pass. I'm getting a no, I'm gonna clear that. Not you, Terry, personally, not you, personally. I'm just getting in general information. We are gonna ace these, I'm getting a yes. Let's strengthen that. That's a big one, folks. Okay, and then goodness gracious is, holy cow. Goodness gracious is, I just lost it, is taking a trip and to Mount Rushmore and the Great Tetons, I don't know, Tetons. I'm just gonna say that. Is it gonna be, do you see anything about this trip? If I do go, it'll be good. It'll be good, it will be a really good experience. Okay, those are the online questions that I have answered so far. I wanna say hi to Lolly Genevieve, hey, Kavita, hi. Caroline, love you, Lolly again. Here's what I'm gonna say, folks. If you're on YouTube and you have a question and I'm not able to get to your question, please do call in<PHONE_NUMBER>. It's a little easier for me when you ask me the question and I can just answer it than trying to read while I'm on air. And anybody who watches the show on TV, people are in the chat asking questions and then I have to read your question and answer it. Otherwise the people listening or watching won't know the question. Okay, I'm gonna go directly to the caller. So 551, 551, what's your name? Where are you coming from? I'm Jennifer. Jennifer from New Jersey. Hey, Jennifer, yeah. Do you have a message for me? Can you do a mediumship reading or no? Do I have to take a certain topic? Okay, so I'm in the beginning of this. Is anybody coming from? Okay, so I'm gonna say this again, folks. One more time for the people in the back, please pay attention.   And then if you have, you can ask a question or you can connect with a loved one from the other side. If you have a question, please make that question specific. I'm not here to give 30 minute readings that you book, okay? Second, if you want to connect with a loved one on the other side, please give me their name and their relationship to you if you want me to tell you what everybody on the other side has to say. Again, book of reading, this is one question, one connection, which is by the way, pretty generous, doing it twice a week for free, okay? So please be prepared with your question and or connection. I'm going to go to 361, 361, what's your name and where are you calling from? Hi, this is Linda and I'm calling from Texas. Thank you so much for taking my call. Absolutely my pleasure. How can I help you today, Linda? Well, I've been having extreme issues and a lot of pain with my hip for the past three months. And I tried chiropractic and this last visit, which was about four weeks ago, he fractured a rib and I stopped going and I'm still, I'm recovered from the rib but I'm still having issues with the hip. Okay, so first. Can you give me any insight into my right hip? Yeah, and you know what I'm going to tell you? There's like two or three things I'm getting. The first thing is that you are chiropractic. I'm sorry that happened with you and I do, I love chiropractic. I'm getting that there's some trauma stored there. So when we have trauma, sometimes we hold onto it in the hip area and in between the hip area. Doesn't mean something happened there. That's just where we hold trauma. So I'm going to start doing a clearing for trauma right now for you, everybody listening, everybody re-listening. Here we go. And then the second thing I'm getting is it is, I know this doesn't make sense to me but it's I hear ball joint, ball joint. And what I'm getting is when you sit, sit the opposite way that you normally sit and also lie down in bed or on the floor or where, wherever and like slowly move your hips up and down. Like, yeah, just up and down. I don't know how else to say that. And then the last thing I'm hearing is this has something possibly to do with your groin muscles also. And the groin muscles can, when they tighten up, they can affect that hip and low back area. So this is what I'm hearing. So what I would recommend is as you're lying on your back, go into frog position and allow your, and frog, for you people, for people, for those of you who aren't familiar with frog position, it's just bringing your feet up and bending your knees and letting your legs kind of fall out when you're on your back. I'm sure there's a lot of other definitions for frog position that we will not go into right now. Frog position on your back is just like bending your knees with your feet up and then letting those knees fall out. You can do it one at a time or both knees at the same time. And again, go very slowly with it. Be very slow with your movements. You're not trying to move very quickly here, but we're gonna go one more time on the clearing for trauma. And if anybody feels this, please let me know if you're on YouTube and you're feeling this, please absolutely 100%, let me know. Here we go. Trauma has been released from the hip and that area, I get a no. Here we go again and we're going to continue to release that. What I am also getting is that ball joint just needs to be a little bit more stabilized moving forward. I know that nobody wants to necessarily go through the orthopedic surgeon wrote of this. You may need to look at, and I'm not a doctor obviously, let's see how it works with releasing the trauma and then slowly rebuilding that area and stretching out that groin muscle if you can. Okay, love. Okay, thank you. I will implement those suggestions. I appreciate it very much. Absolutely. And I hope you have an amazing rest of the day. I look forward to next time, okay sweetie? Thank you so much, bye-bye. Bye-bye and you are welcome. Absolutely my pleasure. I'm gonna go to 908, 908. What's your name and where are you calling from? Good morning, good afternoon. This is Caroline from Dean's Post. Hey Caroline, how are you today? I'm great and how are you? I'm doing well, thank you so much. How can I help you today, love? Well, I would love to get a message from either my daddy, his name is Joaquin or my grandma, Eliza. And is there anything that I can do about my energy as I can seem to focus on my project? Okay. Okay, so the first thing, let's work on everybody's energy all together. So I'm doing some clearings just like we are clear, we are unclear and clearing those right away. And thank you for bringing that up. The next thing that I'm getting about your project and your grandmother is actually here. And the first thing I'm hearing is you need to try to get this more quality sleep. So it's not about you might be going to sleep or sleeping, but you're not getting that deep REM sleep or that really good length, it's something with your sleep. So what I'm hearing is you need to get quality sleep. One thing that some people use to help them sleep is magnesium, if you're not using that. Magnesium relaxes the central nervous system muscles. It also helps with focus. So I would recommend a really good magnesium and getting really good sleep. If you feel like you need to nap absolutely 100%, take those naps, don't worry about it. And do the best you can to do the best you can. I feel like your focus is gonna come back within a week. I feel like Friday is gonna be a really good day. It has been extremely chaotic for everybody and everything. So please know that and the energy hopefully will be a little bit more focused and calm as of Friday. So let's see how that goes. And I hope that this is helpful for you, okay, beautiful. Thank you, thank you. And I think my grandma lives as well. I needed this so badly, Tony, thank you. I'll let you go to the next person. I appreciate it and love you. Oh, thank you so much. And it's absolutely my pleasure. Thank you for joining me here today. And thank you for calling in. And I'm so grateful they could come through for you. I am going to go directly to YouTube. Sal asked, can you do a clearing for kidneys? Cal, Sal, Cal, kidneys and Sal combined into one. Sal, you know what? I'm going to do a clearing for health. We are healthy, I get a no. We're gonna clear that. So one of the things I learned early on is our kidneys are in distress because of something else. So we wanna get to the root of whatever is causing the health issue. So for example, if you have a thyroid issue, yes, the thyroid is problematic, but something either outside of your control or within your body caused that thyroid problem or that kidney problem. And that would be if you're in Eastern medicine, they believe like kidneys are associated, I think it's with fear. Thyroid is associated obviously with voice because it's here in your throat. But if you're going to different like belief systems, it can be that you're not using your voice enough or whatever it is. So what I'm going to do is just for you, Sal, everybody listening, re-listening. And this one's so important. It's at like the 19 minute mark of the show we're going to do. We are healthy. I get to know we're going to clear that. All that has caused our health problems have cleared and healed. I get to know we're going to clear and heal that. You guys, it doesn't, even if it's not something within me, when I'm clearing that I feel it for you guys. So, oh, there's something stopping or blocking this from healing. I get to know we're going to strengthen that. So if you need to come back and re-listen to this for any part or anytime, anything health-wise is compromised, please do feel free to do that. I want to say hey to Patrick and Genevieve again and Lotus, Siren, hey Kate and Jennifer. If I miss saying hi to you, please forgive me. It's not my intention to miss saying hello to anybody who is so wonderful and on YouTube joining the show. Also, there are so many people that listen to the show after that they can't join us. And I want to say hi to all of them also that are pretty, pretty awesome at listening to the show, Cindy and Jessica. I can see your face, but I can't. Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry. Done, done, done. It'll come back to me, but now all the names of all the people are totally, totally blanking out. That is crazy because one of them, Sheryl. Sheryl is one I was texting her last night and this morning too. So that is ridiculous to me. Sandy, okay. So now all the names are starting to come back to me. I'm so sorry everybody. Okay, I'm gonna go directly to the next caller who is two zero three, two zero three. How are you today? How can I help you? Where are you calling from? Hey, this is Michelle from Georgia. Hey, Michelle, how can I help you love? I wanted to know, I applied for a patent and I wanted to know how you thought the idea would do. Okay, so you're gonna get the patent. You are going to have to make one or two tweaks a little bit more, even though you try to keep a patent a little bit open-ended, they're going to want you to, I'm hearing kind of tweak one of the definitions or make something in the patent just a little bit more defined. I think the product is gonna do well. You have to do a grassroots, like a grassroots campaign with this product, meaning grassroots used to mean obviously, like kind of hit the ground running. I'm hearing this grassroots now is more social media, getting on social media, having people you know get on social media sort of thing. Now, I am going to say whatever grassroots means for your product, that's the route you need to go in the beginning is do a total grassroots sort of thing. I think the product is gonna do well. Out of the gate, you're going to be a little, they're using the word like disillusioned, okay? I don't know exactly what that means for your specific situation. And that could mean a little disillusioned as to, like the cost of getting this product up and running it out or the way it takes off. There's just one little thing that is going to cause a little disillusionment. Once you get past that and you don't get frustrated by that, you overcome that, you're going to be up and running and good to go. So please by all means, don't get discouraged even if there is something that comes through that is a little bit over, I'm gonna use the word overwhelming although it won't be overwhelming. It'll just be something you didn't expect with this particular aspect of putting this together. I am going to say that you are going to have some good luck with this product and that might come in around March. I hear March really loud and then I hear February very soft and then I hear April and I see running. So I feel like whatever comes in, you might hear about it first like in February but then in March, whatever it is, is really much bigger and then in April, it kind of moves forward in a good steady way or again, hits the ground running, takes off sort of thing. Be patient, but the other word I'm really hearing for you is be extremely practical with this. Somebody on the other side is laughing and saying, don't quit your day job yet. Don't quit your day job yet. Yeah. And I'm laughing at that because isn't that so true? Like we all were like, oh, I have this. I can quit my day job. Nope, not yet. Not yet, don't quit your day job yet. Don't do it yet. So there will come a time when you can do that or you can depend on this practically for survival but it's gonna take a minute to get there. Okay, so just, and don't be frustrated by that. You might have a couple of sleepless nights but it will pay off in the long run. Okay, love. Wow. All right, that's great news, thank you. You are so welcome and I hope this was really only helpful for you. Absolutely, absolutely. You have an amazing rest of the day. Everybody, I'm gonna go to 202-614-516. Hold on, don't go anywhere. And I know there are a lot of callers after that but please hold on, I'm gonna get to you but I wanna do what I consider, uh-oh. I hope I didn't lose people. What I wanna do is I wanna do a really a clearing that's really important to me for people. So we all know people that we care about or that we deal with whether it be at work or at in our family or in friendships or whatever it is and the relationships are complicated. So I'm gonna do two quick clearings here and the first one is for healthy relationships and this one is on TikTok also but we have healthy loving relationships. Let's clear that to a yes, but the second one is that if we or someone we know has personality disorders.   There really aren't medications for those. Now, I'm not accusing anybody of having these. I'm just saying we, some of us know people with these disorders and what I would like to do right now is just send a clearing to heal, release the personality disorders and to also clear, heal, release what caused these, what has caused this as clear to release. I'm getting a note and to yeah, do that. So as those are clearing, as those are releasing we're going to send this and again, this is at about the 27, 28 minute mark of the show. So if you want to come back and listen to this and you do know somebody who is suffering with any of this, you can specifically say angels go to this person and heal this as needed for them. We're never in control of somebody's destiny or how they're supposed to be here but we can help if it's meant to be. That's the best way I can put that. I wanna thank you for being here. I'll be back Wednesday at noon and if you do want me to do a weekend day or time, please comment that. Let me know what weekend day and time works best for everybody on Saturday or Sunday and at what time. I love you guys so very much. Have an amazing rest of the week.

It probably caused a little bit of damage on that I hope not but car does feel okay at the moment there, but apparently 21 PSI where the boost in a hundred people an hour is like a scare. It's scary coming in through this section Normally I'd be going full bore through this this car does not have much grip. I think it's on street tires.

I thank guys for coming back and watching. I'm evil rabbit. I'll see you guys on the track


Before we got inundated with Flintstones stuff based on the 1994 movie starring Jon goodman, the Super Nintendo had a good old-fashioned Flintstones game going off of the original cartoon for source material called Flintstones the Treasure of Sierra Madrock, made by Taito in early 1994. And much to my surprise, this game isn't just your run of the mill run to the right hop and bop platformer. Alright, there's plenty of that here, but the game is structured to be a multiplayer board game. The grand Puba is retiring, but first he plans a contest, where whoever finds this thing called the Treasure of Sierra Madre, no doubt a play on the 1920s novel, Treasure of the Sierra Madre, will be the next great Puba, leader of the water buffaloes. The way this works is actually pretty interesting. You start out standing on a world map, only you can't move. You gotta press the Y button to roll a die, which indicates how many spaces you can go. For instance, here I rolled a 1, so I go right over here and complete a simple platforming level. It's B to jump and Y to use your club to bash enemies to make it to the end of the level, then you're back on the world map, and it's Barney's turn to roll a die, and yes, even when playing single player, you play as both for some reason. In this level that Barney lands on, he's gotta jump over these prehistoric cattle, like something out of Sunset Riders. It's back to Fred's turn, and again he rolls a 1, but Barney already completed that level, so he just sits and waits until it's his turn again. Barney again rolls a 1, which brings him to some kind of timed bonus level, so yeah, as you can see the levels and settings are varied throughout, and they may not always be the most interesting or engaging, but hey, there's at least some nifty obstacles in the way like these waves that push you back, or this shark that takes out the ground beneath you, and the board game structure here makes this game unique if nothing else. You can also land on places like amusement parks, which cost admission to get in, and if you don't have enough stuff collected from the previous levels you've gone through, you can't do anything, and it's the other player's turn, and they get a chance at it if they have enough clams.  Eventually, both Fred and Barney go in different directions on the board, which leads to all sorts of other stuff you can do, like shops and minigames where you can earn health upgrades and extra lives, there's the occasional boss fight, and even mode 7 races. All the while on the main board, Wilma and Betty are wandering around trying to find you, and if they catch up to you, you get dragged all the way back toward the beginning. The thing is though, they each move independently on the board, and sometimes you can see them, in which case you can actually take your time and wait before rolling the die, and moving to the next spot to make sure you don't run into them. So yeah, getting moved back that far sucks, but there is a way to avoid it. As if you can't tell already, this is an excellent representation of the Flintstones cartoon, featuring all the characters looking exactly like they did on the show, and it's got the classic Flintstones theme as well. There's really not much to the platforming sections, unfortunately. The only two extra things you can do here are climb trees and float a bit after a jump by holding the B button. There's also ramps here and there, which you can fly off of, and as you can see, the sprite animation here is great. If nothing else, the controls work well and are extremely forgiving, making this an easily approachable game for even the most novice of players. But unfortunately, that may be what ends up keeping people away from this game. There's just zero challenge here, and the game really gets repetitive. Once you've played through about 20 minutes or so, you've seen like 90% of the game, and it's just more of the same over and over again, until either Fred or Barney reach the end of the board and become Grand Puba. The boss fights in particular are really lacking. I really wish they were a bit more varied and offered more of a challenge, but oh well. I should mention that there is a password system here, but it looks like this. So yeah, this is one of those situations where if you use a password to continue a game, you'll want to take a picture of the screen with your phone. But yeah, despite all that, I would still recommend this game, but only for a specific audience. I can see how some people would get bored to tears with something like this, but this might be right with the doctor ordered for some people. For instance, if you're a parent and you want to get your young child into gaming, I'm talking like three or four years old, this would be an easy way to do so. It's a cheerful, bright, and colorful game with immediate controls that are really forgiving and easy to get used to, and the board game structure really gives this game a unique spin. If that sounds like something that'd be useful to you, then you won't be disappointed with the Flintstones Treasure of Sierra Madrock. Alright, I want to thank you for watching, and I hope you have a great rest of your day.


nd now for three years just for his own mental health because Boko Haram come down into the village once a month on motorbikes and aka 47s and they shoot whoever they see on the street now Nigeria is a majority Muslim country and as a result Christians are persecuted in Nigeria but you know that's an example of where the church is flourishing okay but outside of outside of outside of and we wouldn't want to see it a similar situation it would drive people to the chapels talked because i'm not sure if i was right or wrong in the scenario i gave or what i propose what do the lady right yeah go ahead to the lady want yeah well apart what we need what we need now is a is an open uh synod where the lady come forward and we get to hear exactly their grapes with the church what they want to see changed in the church we know an open and honest discussion um which we just don't seem to be getting from Rome at the moment like do you believe the current pope is too liberal that is do you believe uh uh you would need someone with a different attitude at the head of the church well the problem with pope Francis at the moment is he's causing a lot of confusion on one side of his mouth he says that abortion is wrong and and and uh he he basically leads the Catholics to believe that that he is utterly opposed to abortion and then from the other side of his mouth he does something that flies contrary to that so he's taken a big 10th approach and he's he wants to bring everybody in under the the umbrella of the church and it's causing a lot of confusion so that's the problem i think what he i suppose the simplest way to describe it is there's a pier in dunny gall that has big metal bollards that boats tie themselves to those bollards never move you know they're people can they can they can go to bed at night time knowing their boats are safe tied to these bollards uh under pope Francis those bollards are moving and that's causing a lot of confusion so if you're if you have a boat you've got somewhere to tie it if you're a car driver they're irrelevant to you but the bollards are there nonetheless that's what so yeah all right the church survived for 2000 years you know yeah of course and these things go in cycles as well i call us as the church hasn't so much lost its vision it's lost its faith returning to tradition will be the way forward if the church weds herself to the current age she will become a widow in the next is that something you agree with christopher hello yeah okay uh no i don't i don't think the church should be wedding itself to the current age that's what the church was always about it's supposed to be like a marker where we can like a benchmark which we can look at as society progresses forward it's a guiding principle that we run our lives by you know if it moves well then that's serious it's like magnetic compass north moving you know it you just can't it's not a la carte you know right so say for instance then you talk we talked about i offered the scenario about how it consolidates it you know it it you know it's got a clear identity a clear message okay and then it operates if you want to be part of that club you're part of that club but if not not i think then what people might have that's fine if that's what people want to do but then if you start to sort of then influence in schools or sort of influence in society or or maybe you know tell women that the decisions they're making are wrong and they might go to hell would part of the church changing as as has been laid out then maybe withdrawing from you know if it had any role in some of the scenarios are given they're withdrawing from that or would the role of the church be to try and convince other people to join it does that make sense um well just relate to your point on hell there nobody knows who's going to hell that's that's not nobody can say nobody on earth can say that that's a decision between yourself and your god um the the church the way i see it is the church cannot uh cannot adopt the current times it has to stick by what um what it has preached for 2000 years um if it if it moves at all then it's there's no point in it that's the way i see it as regards the big issues you know yeah but and i would say you know much more than me on this issue christopher but the church has constantly changed i mean the if we were to truly go back to the church of 2000 years ago things would be very different in a number of different areas wouldn't they um no i don't really see it as such i mean we we we we we were now legalizing abortion in ireland we're not listening to the church on that i was at the pro-life march in dublin there on saturday and there was three archbishop saddus they also wrote a letter before the repeal of the eighth and nobody listened to them so you know they are putting their opinion out there but they're not being listened to and i suspect that's more to do with the behavior of the church this last 30 40 years you know i do remember after that letter you talked about the college as well we couldn't get an interview at that time um you know there was a and i think there was a lot of anger there was a lot of anger that letter came really really quite late if my memory serves me correct christopher because i remember you know a lot of people were contacting this program saying well where is the church in this conversation and i think i believe it was a late sort of intervention into that conversation uh but at the time there was no one available uh sort of that might have been named or represented by that letter to speak on it which probably talks to what you're well i i i i i i i suspect at the time the priests had no courage to speak out you know they were probably in the situation where they felt they were compromised with all of the scandals that came out you know yeah i understand but as things get worse in our society people will lead priests they will be looking for priests you know okay well chelsea i hope you feel heard i appreciate your time and speaking to me christopher okay thank you take care of yourself alright oh wait six sixty twenty five thousand what's um what's apps and texts that number right a definitive answer and all of you've given very good answer but someone from child benefit who works in child benefit actually has got in touch with us uh and and what they're saying is makes sense makes sense because you are entitled to every child's entitled to children's allowance until they're sixteen from sixteen to eighteen you're entitled to it whilst you're at school or in full-time education so logically i suppose when you've done you leave in certain leave school it stops but then it's returned at eighteen if you go on to college or whenever you go on to college and backdated so it makes sense actually when you see it written down so i work in child benefit says this caller the over sixteen form would have went out and uh the parent would have got it signed by the school which would have put an end date of finishing school in june exactly what happened now if the child is not eighteen till they go to college or even july or august the college can sign it and child benefit will be paid up to the month of the 18th birthday so now if you've been accepted and have you placed that's probably what's required yeah same thing happened to us our son not eighteen until december got no letter to state otherwise hopefully he will be going to college in september has the ceo filled out also yeah indeed and as i say it does make sense because you would have filled a form that would have come to you wouldn't it leading up to his uh leading up to his um 16th birthday you would have filled that and says yes he's still at school um but he finishes in and it would have been presumed the date the finished uh at the end of um the leaving started so it's all starting to make sense now uh this caper of me home martin out in

it's time to get into the garden now and we're joined by paul mcglachlan of balak durr garden center good morning to your paul good morning greg what about this weather i mean it's not really gardening weather isn't i mean it's probably great for gardens moisture a bit of heat i don't know what is it i have fun it's it's good enough growing weather if you know me but it's just pretty poor is there no you can't enjoy it no exactly you can't actually get out and sit about your garden as much like this should be prime barbecue season but it hasn't transpired so far and away right so i mean obviously people then might be looking at their their their their planting and it might be looking really nice now and they might think nature's doing the job in terms of watering would they be correct in that regard yes but it's still generally they're too much water about it the minute for the time of year but it is the sort of weather here is very easy to make you relax and you become complacent almost about the water and so like if you're say your hanging baskets your pots are in the shade of the house they may not be getting the benefit all the rain that's going so it's still a good idea to check them yeah it's the wind de facto because it's quite breezy at the moment as well yes the the wind front of my own hanging basket my own front door walked in i'd passed it twice a day and it's actually surprised i checked it the last day it was surprisingly dry but it is just a constant breeze it's drying out yeah so this misty kind of rain then the breeze it's not the your plants might be not getting quite as much moisture as you might exactly they're not getting as much as you think right okay the lack of sun now i mean obviously when we talk of sun we see we think blue sky's big yellow sun i presume the plants are still benefiting from sun or do they require the direct sunlight as well they are benefiting from but for the time of year there's just not as much sunshine as should be so and like the plants roll out in the sun for the photosynthesis actually the green to make the green part of the plant produce energy yeah so it's not getting the amount it should be at this time of year so it would be a good idea to have not what we feed right so we need to do we need to help them along with the feeding then yeah we could feed it this time of year and especially if the weather does come good they'll be primed just to jump at that stage yeah and they're hungry the plants are hungry at the moment aren't they right and we need then to supplement the lack of direct sunlight okay so don't forget now is the good time then to start feeding and make sure to keep watering your plants right okay um so generally speaking what tasks should we be undertaking around the garden at the moment outside of what we've just discussed yeah generally speaking it's supposed to be the main thing you'd be looking at to keep vigilant for this weather unfortunately it's just prime weather for slugs and snails and stuff so does they love that sort of warm damp weather so just keep it way out for them around the garden especially around your pots and stuff like that because they really love this kind of weather and they're very active at the moment and ripping the heads off your flowers if they're yes pretty much the dead head and keep on top of that as well if you want to keep the flowers continuing to flower nicely through the summer uh generally whenever the flower starts to fade backwards just nip it off and that makes it produce another one basically yeah in some of our earlier chats Paul people were asking about you know when's a time when's a good time to start growing food stuff are we kind of in the prime time for that now yeah now some of your crops it would have been in earlier sort of your potatoes almost someone would be ready onions should be ready but it's still a great time to plant stuff like salad crap that sort of thing even your peas and beans you can do a second run at this time here and they'll grow along perfectly well and you know obviously we know the usuals anything that's a little bit out there that we could be planting that thrives in our climate around now yeah funny it's actually people are getting into sort of food groups that's sort of you don't see in supermarkets so I can see the chinese cabbages your pack choy that kind of crack is all very becoming very popular and now's a great time to grow it sort of start it now and you'll have it ready for harvesting the gober and is that for like salads and stuff salads or you just really like cabbage almost but it's just you know where they don't buy it it's just a wee bit more exotic but it's just that sort of stuff it's hard to it's hard to find fresh in a shop yeah so if you want someone a wee bit or if you have a recipe calls for it right now two will those lucky enough to have fruit trees starting to see the literally the fruits of their labour yeah pretty much your fruit trees your apples your pears plums that sort of thing should be setting their fruit now so you should see the wee sort of fruits emerging now's a good time to actually take a look around them in case in some years you actually get far too many fruit on a fruit tree and what it does and weighs down the branches so it does so it's a good idea to actually go along and if you have a huge amount of fruit on a tree just pick off some of it now and sort of thin it out even if it's not ripe you're actually doing it just to maintain exactly you're better off say on a spur getting three decent sized apples rather than five or six tiny ones yeah so you're just creating more space and that might be hard for people to do and they might not see the logic of it but as you explained it it makes more sense yeah exactly just get a probably less a lot more good good fruits have a lesser crap if you know what I mean yeah right um Japanese not weed it's ever present but uh it's prime time now for it is it pretty much it's really emerging now and it's really people see the clumps of it coming up basically so it's just not as few weeks there in the garden center you get asked about it a lot if you know what I mean it doesn't look invasive and horrible no it doesn't look that that way but it is it is horrendously easy to spread so it is so it's just if you have it in your property but it's sort of got a very bad reputation the last few months or last few years even so it did just in terms of damage and property in that but if you do have it in your property it's not as big a problem as basically a lot of media make it out to be yeah I got you know what I mean so it's generally if you think you have it take pictures if I come into your garden center get advice on it and there are more effective ways now at treating it the council seem to be having very good very good results in treating well in fairness have been a lot of the the the warnings that you talk of did come from the council not necessarily from us directly and others and they were trying treatments really over the last couple of years so you think they've kind of got a handle on it now very much there seems to be a lot more sort of a lot of more chemical treatments but there seems to be a lot more effective treatments going and areas that have been treated over the course of a couple of years are showing great results and people might be a little bit confused and you'll see the signs where it's prevalent take cuttings and think right that looks quite nice or that might be something else do people tend to confuse it with other plants and not realize it's quite as if invasive and nasty as some might make out generally the reason Japanese not read was brought here was causes quite attractive and very good at growing so people may be tempted to but obviously the like the council have warning signs up not to be taking cuttings of it because 0.7 of a gram apparently of a cotton of a leaf will actually regrow again right so it's that's what makes it so invasive I mean and it's amazing survivor absolutely can get three meters in one season yeah okay and it roots it roots itself well yes okay so if people think they might have it or it might be there take a picture go to your local garden center don't bring a cutting no don't bring a cotton because who we can do with it okay don't bring a cutting but bring some a picture of them for you pictures exactly and you can firstly identify if it is yeah and secondly give advice and because it's because it's so prevalent in the media a lot of the time it's not actually it but people just generally people are prone to panic and all right okay we probably still might be able to get to your question if you get it into us really quickly 08 660 25000 where can I source blocking compost please I've tried garden centers and in a show and dairy and letter Kenny to no avail any suggestions so what sort of compost blocking compost to be honest I'm not too sure right well if you're not too sure we might not have the name of it correctly listener if you don't mind get your get back on to us and just if it's blocking compost or what it's more commonly known as please right the gardens and flowers are in are full of snails and slugs there must be thousands of them all over the flowers and they're eating them is there any way of getting rid of them um basically it's just we're victims of the current weather situation at the minute so it's just their loads of them about um getting rid of them probably the most effective way as you get slug pellets is the most effective way getting rid of them and they're not as bad as they used to contain harsh chemicals now they're actually sort of more dehydrated agents that dehydrate the slug so you can get organic ones available too so they're the most effective way the other way but when you're talking about a scale like that there you might be gonna thin the amount or get rid of them or it might not work at all or what it will work to an extent that's probably the most effective the other the other probably more fully performed as vigilance is to go out at midnight beer or flashlight and actually pick them off which is a big ask and it's not it's not the most pleasant job either no i would say so uh right i'm getting very uh like i'm getting also uh very soft i don't know what's happened um in that i was gonna flush a spider down the toilet the other day and i actually went outside with that i couldn't go to bed knowing i flushed a spider down the toilet yes so i'm not sure about ripping slugs and snails from plants it might be a little easier but when the kids have me doing the same every spider has to go outside and sort of find a nice new home yeah okay um all the leather jackets around as well too a few people texting you with leather jackets yes leather jackets are sort of an an ever-present problem as well this year there was no real frost over the winter to kill off the population so they are quite prevalent this time of year as well once again leather jackets you can sort of physically try and remove them by attract them to the surface yeah and letting the birds do the work or there are more chemical sprays now available than used to be but they're generally agri-spec stuff that you would have to sort of get specialist advice on yeah just on the knotweed is it always a purple bloom a caller says they've got has a knotweed got white bloom as well they say i know it has a purple bloom but i've been told it could also have a white bloom yes funny japanese knotweed actually only has a white bloom it only has a white bloom so what's the purple coming from purple is Himalayan balsam it's one it's they're very easily confused but basically the Himalayan balsam is much easier to treat and it's actually not as big a problem as the knotweed would be right can i use surplus bark that i have in the bottom of my pots and window boxes before i put it into the compost uh yes you can yeah probably pretty much fill up to maybe up to a third of the depth of the pot with the bark and compost and just as you're doing to take a weed look through it for sort of snail and slug eggs yeah you don't want to be fostering anything exactly uh i have a monkey puzzle with brown tips what can i do to help uh general feed would be the best thing monkey puzzles are very slow growing plants so they are and sort of generally damp weather can affect them badly so a general purpose feed at this time of year someone like your poultry manure someone like that there would actually should kick it off and should bring it around again all right what's the best flowers for a grave in winter please and is it too late to plant a rosebush outside well actually first off let's start with uh what are the best flowers for a grave in winter a grave in winter probably your best options would be you could winter pansies would be quite nice to give you nice sort of vibrant colors with them you get cyclamen as well which are sort of we purple sort of purpley pinky flowers just had a wee bit of color a wee bit of color and generally the most common thing for graves in winter time would be heather yes you can get a great strike of color from them okay and they're actually very resilient if you're not at the graveyard regularly to water them they'll actually stand up very well brilliant okay second question from this listener um is it too late to plant a rosebush outside their rosebush is thriving in the house but they'd like to put it out at some stage yep not noise praying time to put it out as well so it is because now is um now the weather's good if you just put them out keep keep an eye on the water and basically let's stay with rosebushes then uh tried sprays for what was recommended for a rosebush the leaves are being eaten and the bush looks like it's dying they keep falling off right um probably aphids once again are quite prevalent at the minute um the products likes rose clear that sort of thing would be number one but any sort of general purpose insecticide should help that or even if you want to go in a more organic fashion the likes of you're washing up liquid with water right my hydrangea is a wilting what supplement can i use uh generally you get aricaceous fertilizer for the hydrangeas works best any sort of likes a miracle grow anything to get their wool work but if you want to do specifically for them for the acid lovens or acid hate and stuff you would actually use the what i call use aricaceous feed okay which can get most gardens what is the difference between compost and mulch what is more suitable to use compost generally has more nutrients in it basically you have fertilizers and that sort of stuff mixed in through it and it's going to feed your plant a mulch it's just just a sort of treatment you put on top that helps the amount of nutrients in it but is that just dead grass turned up dead grass mulch a lot of the time we're even bark bark of trees and stuff like that there and generally what it does it suppresses the weeds around the plant and helps to hold the moisture all right okay yeah that might make sense it's like a little cover a wee blanket for over this um right um i'll come back to that one a second i set a grass seed not lawn seed as my lawn is supposed to uh is exposed to wind and weather what's the best way to feed it and keep it green yeah um grass seed generally is just a it's a heavier degree of grass to be similar to the long grass on anything so generally a sort of low nitrogen fertilizer because with grass seed if you actually put on high nitrogen stuff you going to end up with silage basically like it's going to grow very fast so someone low nitrogen like someone like 5510 that should help keep it green without actually growing it on too much right here's an interesting one in convoy there is a green and orangey type thick dropping like a shower of rain and it sticks to the cars plants and all over the yard it's hard to scrape it with fingernails some locals went onto the internet and found it could be coming from honey bees any suggestions for what it could be and how to get rid of it so it's a greeny orangey type thick dropping um no it's a new one new one of me gets a picture absolutely i've got a picture of it sort of but i've never heard of actually unless it's sort of excess pollen or carrying or something like that right it's an interesting one though right dear are going into my garden they're eating all the roses any advice on how to deter them now with cats and dogs we've heard about what dear dears are becoming a huge problem about our gardens and that sort of thing um a lot of people are using like sort of physical scares almost to seeing people with like sort of hanging up beans and little rattle over the course of the night if you know because it's generally sort of dawn dusk that they do the damage so you do get sprays to sort of deter them just stuff we spray on it's called grazer that they don't like the smell of in the tennis stay away from right but it's sort of it's impractical to try and fence them out because they can jump 10 12 feet wow so they can so they can actually it's so generally it's physical scare or someone like anything's going to make noise that but once again they kind of cotton on it too fairly quick i've been told to put in a full medium-sized saucepan of water into my hanging baskets by a friend i feel like i'm drowning them it all leaks out the bottom yeah but no that's actually that's pretty much good advice so it is in the sense that um the hanging basket will only take on what it needs and the rest will leak out the bottom so is it not wash out nutrients or anything not particularly not to be honest you would if you're sort of looking at the ends of the scale you're better too much than too little okay and the excess will drain so you're in no danger that friendship's back on so if there's any arguments if you were arguing against that sorry listener you lost uh i put fertilizer on my lawn two months ago but it doesn't seem to have done any good should i redo it it was feed and weed yes uh you can redo it all right generally most of the chemical fertilizers only work over the course of six weeks anyway so that you should have had the benefit for it so if it's not doing what it should now would be the time to and combies are they usual or would you be better off getting something that's just designed for the one job yeah no it's funny the combination products can be actually very good and they can work very well but once again the feed weed and especially the muscular by the main agent on it that would be works well but it depends on how bad your case of moss is before you start any ideas on how to deter green bottles from the garden um green bottles the flies flies yeah right um few plants that actually work well um they reckon if you plant a eucalyptus tree someone like that there will actually help sort of keep insects away a lot of them don't like to do midges and stuff like that a concern a caller has is that if you kill slugs with pellets or powder that birds eating them can also die is that a concern you have that used to be the problem but it's not so much anymore it used to be the chemical and it sort of transferred like that but now like I say they're dehydrated agents and they're not actually chemical poisons so it's perfect because they've since banned the ones that used to do that right the name of the chemical and another listeners rode in on the blocking compost they say I think cocoa core soil yes is what the listener means is blocking soil coconut core soils comes from coconut palm husks yes i'm familiar with that core now as as a term more familiar with no it's not something we carry now and i'm not too sure generally a lot of the bigger sort of bigger corporations like your home business stuff like that why uh what why would use not store it like is it because it's hard to source or not many people want it like why would you use uh coconut core soil over something else i suppose it's one of the once again it's actually one of the p3 alternatives uh compost if you know what i mean and what it is it comes it's the nature of it it can be dehydrated made into a tiny package understood so we can if you've ever seen the some of the supermarkets used to do like we sort of seed kits yeah did you got it that was core compost came with it was like a wee tablet is it expensive it can be expensive it's hard to source and it's your local garden centers around here you'd only want maybe one pallet of a year yeah i can't it's not it's kind of not worth having it's a big outlay it might not shift and yeah i get how that makes sense right okay listen thank you so much as always um you're only down the road from us here yes garden center you're you're busy as always i presume yes i right and busy all right i funny it's this time of year is actually you've a lot of sort of tourists and a lot of people scottish people english people over visiting they tend to cause the travel we built to bring a lot of stuff back and that's gonna be a quite a busy time for us okay they don't think it's like a public garden they go all correct they're buying stuff exactly that's what we want to look like it's a nice one though isn't it actually it's not something i would have thought of to come to arland and and bring some yeah actually a lot of people come here see certain plants around the place remains and mauve maybe they're where they're from you know what actually that's never thought about so now it's actually a busy time so they create through you guys a bit of done a goal in sorry or something yeah exactly good stuff all right paul as always thank you so very thank you very much all right we'll be back with more

show inside this week's irish farmers journal you cannot afford to miss it okay the irish council for civil liberties has been looking at statistics as it relates and i referenced this earlier the passing of legislation right before recess in the summer and in the winter liam herrick is executive director of the irish council for civil liberties and joins us now and of course we've got a a big interest in this in that a bill was rushed through last evening liam good morning and thanks for taking the call good morning great good to talk to you right okay now i mean you just have done the graph you've got the statistics uh what concerns do you have well i think the difficulty that we're seeing and this really comes up from a number of important piece of legislation that we were working on in particular the electoral reform bill and the retention of data bill huge important like a redress bill is also going through at the moment what we were seeing was that as we come to the end of the dial term that a lot of the normal stages in the parliamentary process were guillotined which means that they basically were just circumvented and that they the normal processes were being avoided in a rushed to pass legislation in the last couple of weeks now this is a pattern that goes back over many years and actually when you look at the statistics what you see is that the majority of legislation that gets passed in this country the majority of our laws actually are passed in either the first two weeks of july or in the first two weeks of december so at the windows at the very end of the parliamentary term and actually the number of acts that are rushed through in this period is much bigger than the laws that are passed for the whole of the rest of the year can you draw a conclusion conclusion for the motivation for that Liam is that just the arcade workings of the doll and everything is sort of constructed that it leads up to you know a big push before the extended holidays or can we conclude that it's in a government's interest to pass through stuff which might be controversial and then everyone's forgotten by the time the doll sits again well i suppose it's difficult to be sure as to what the reasons for it are but i mean if you look at it from this perspective we have a good process the process for passing laws in this country are laid out in the constitution and they give members of the doll and members of the shanid and indeed the president a role in considering the legislation in debating it and putting forward amendments and also in the last number of years we've had a pre-legislative scrutiny stage which allows Doyle committees and shanid committees to bring in them on the legislation so the process is very good but what happens then is that for some laws they follow that process and there's a good deliberation and what happens then is we get good laws and we don't have unintended consequences because any errors or technical mistakes in the legislation get fixed but then for other pieces of legislation we skip a lot of those stages and the result of that is that you get unintended mistakes and consequences which will have to be figured out and be problems in the future but you also allow governments to get through legislation that isn't properly debated and i suppose you can either say that either the doll is moving too slowly for the rest of the year or it's using this emergency at the end there's an emergency created by the government's own agenda to avoid proper scrutiny. Is it anti-democratic Liam? Is it anti-democratic because when you have a government with a majority okay they are able to push a bill through they've got a majority on the housing committee so they're going to get the cooperation from the housing committee and then when there is any protestation or whatever as it relates to it needs pre-leg or it needs longer to scrutinise it before deputies have a vote i mean surely that is anti-democratic and at the very least you're not affording all td's a proper opportunity to be fully across an issue that they're about to vote on i mean that's a failure of democracy isn't it? Absolutely i couldn't agree more in that it clearly is a failure of democracy when legislation is going through without even giving td's and senators a minimum opportunity to debate it but i think what we've seen in the last couple of weeks is particularly problematic because if you look at for example the electoral reform bill really important piece of legislation which ironically enough is about strengthening our democracy and it's about how we monitor elections how we run elections how we look at political advertising political funding couldn't be more important right but in the last number of stages in the doiling of the shannad the minister for housing came forward and introduced whole new parts of the bill not sections parts running to hundreds of sections in some cases introducing wholly new ideas so there's a whole new concept about regulating parties that might operate in two different jurisdictions and there's a whole new section a whole new part that applies to the problem of political advertising and misinformation both of these are really complicated ideas and weren't debated at all so you know it's not even that they're rushed they weren't debated to any extent in the doiler the shannad and that really is a government trying to avoid parliament and i think the more this practice grows it does indicate a government that just isn't really respecting democratic process okay so just i mean in relation to people's civil liberties we have a scheme past night obviously we're going to i'm going to be focused on the defective bloc scheme that it's a scheme that's promising something but is clearly not able to deliver that people who have been wronged by the state because of the lack of oversight and enforcement as it relates to building regs are going to be precluded from a scheme because they don't have the resources to qualify for that scheme should is there any way to challenge this in that this is encroaching on people's rights that the rights that they have the rights to fair process the rights to i don't know their interests being looked after by the state i mean can should this or can this be challenged well of course once the laws are passed people can challenge them through the court in as far as they you know they can go to the court but we should be doing a better job to try to get things right at the point of legislation and the laws are meant to be the democratic will of the people and when we see you know governments using the majority to rush through legislation in this way and to avoid any even parliamentary scrutiny of what they're proposing then i think it is cynical and it is anti-democratic and the more we're seeing of this i think it will undermine public trust in in politics itself now the tarnish to answering some of the criticism of this yesterday and the opposition pointing out all the bills that are being rushed through he said well if the opposition didn't waste so much time with statements you know we wouldn't have a problem but i mean that just doesn't stand up when the government is actually giving members of the dole a couple of days to see legislation but also there is nothing by the way that mean there's nothing that could not have waited this defective blocks bill for example it did not have to be passed before the summer recess in fact those that are affected by it said we'll wait class to the summer to get it right so i don't understand because it's the it's the government that has set a time frame it's they can move that you can't blame the opposition then no that doesn't make any sense really important points no it's a really important point in this because we can all remember situations over the years where there was an urgency to pass legislation like for example the legislation that was introduced at the start of the pandemic which was allowing public health measures but also allowing the social welfare and pay support we all understand that that's an emergency and we all understand that sometimes things have to be rushed through but you're absolutely right that a lot of these emergencies are fabricated ones i mean we had the situation and last week with the electoral reform bill there's no reason why that needs to be rushed through now the government's been working on it for years but the teacher gave a political commitment it would happen before the end of the summer so that's what's happening if we look at the retention of data bill the government is saying that after the judgment in the graham drawer case there's suddenly an emergency but the department of justice has been sitting on this problem since 2014 when the european court of justice told them that the law was defective so it's not good enough for the government to fail to act for years and the mike was another example of this and then to say at the last minute well we need to get this resolved next week you know so i think the only real answer to all of this is the opposition members of the erotic and indeed the backbench members of the government parties need to stand up for democracy in a much more forceful way than they have up to know and we can't be allowing the government but you know what the problem is is though say for instance some of these committees if they were dominated by opposition parties we'd be highlighting problems from a different angle um i don't if you get where i'm coming from because they their work could be they could be designed to frustrate the work of the government and everyone has a responsibility in in in in us getting to a system that works well for the people not for the parties well i think that that's a fair point and i mean there are practical issues there to make sure that this doesn't happen uh and one of the proposals from the government's recently from the whip's office was that the pre-legit of scrutiny stages of the process which the government says are abused sometimes that there might be a time limit put on it of eight weeks or so like that's fair enough we can have a discussion about that but the bottom line is when you get a situation the government introduces what is effective the whole new piece of legislation a day or two before it's going to the doll takes out half the processes and doesn't allow anybody introduce amendments that is you know an abomination of democracy it is completely illegitimate and the more that is happening the more it damages our democracy all right thanks for your time this morning that's Liam Herrick executive director of the Irish Council for civil liberties and just to give you some context of of priorities and time yesterday the multi-billion euro bill that would have had it was all there it could have sorted this problem out the money was there it could have they could have i don't think anyone could say otherwise in all honesty it it next week an outer space treaty motion is getting as much time for discussion in the doll as um as the mica bill so they're going to be speaking now these are houses in in in donnie gall and elsewhere that are crumbling on earth they're going to afford as much

an important issue and one which i uh want to return to but i would like mary harley he harley he uh manager of donnelly go women's centre uh to give us a brief outline of this issue good morning mary good morning greg how are you i'm good right now you mentioned to us that gps are often not able to provide smear clinics due to demand and obviously coming out of covet what what is the problem here yeah greg i suppose what we've noticed the trend over the since covet came in um in 2019 2020 that i think it's the pressure that gps are finding themselves under um that they are no a lot of them are no longer in the position to offer appointments for uh regular cervical check um screenings and of course it's causing problems it's causing stress for women because they know that they're due their their appointment and because of the the extended pressure on gps they're not able to get their appointments so we're finding still that gps are not in a position to offer um appointments for cervical screening so the women are contacting us um and we have continued um to provide screenings since everything reopened i suppose um last year okay um so people shouldn't though if they can't get access to a smear test uh at their gps there are alternatives are they and that is that what we want to let people know about today yeah absolutely i suppose it just became really it was really highlighted in the last few weeks where we were hearing women contacting us saying that they still can't get their smear test done um you know that the gps still aren't uh some not all but some of them or most of them aren't in the position to offer the the screenings and just to let women know that we are here and we can offer them an appointment um you know we have regular um clinics every week and you know we sometimes we do afternoon clinics and it can be evening appointments so we can usually fit around a woman's schedule and where are they generally hosted mary yeah they're here in the center um we're located on the port road across from ungrain and theatre so all they can do is just ring us on um 07491 24985 and uh we can make an appointment for them yeah and listen it's brilliant that you are but uh this it's obviously going to complicate it for some having to travel a greater distance if you're around electric any it might be convenient uh it's good to get it done on people should but that potential extra travel uh in a busy life already we hope it's not deterring people from getting this important check yeah and that's it exactly you know and i suppose um and that's the downside we're we're now able to offer this on an outreach basis um we just don't have the resources to do that what we do try and work is with the women's own schedule so if a woman rings up and we we try and work with her that she might be coming to letter kenny anyway she could be here for work and we'll just come down to us after work so we do try and accommodate them as best we can if we hear that there are surgeries you'll maybe nearer to their part of the country that are operating um smear cakes we will refer them there but again that's causing problems because most gps are only seeing their own clients they're not actually seeing new clients so it's it's not ideal but i think you know if any woman is really worried or has symptoms or has now gone past their due date for um for a cervical screen you know we are the option that are handling us we will get them in and finally mary are you fully sympathetic to the the situation gps find themselves in or would you be appealing for them or to them to try and provide this really important piece of health care primarily for women yeah look i'm really sympathetic they're not in an easy position and you know the pressures on them um are increasing all of the time as they are on us um i suppose if somebody is really concerned really is not in the position to get to letter kenny to come in to see us definitely you know talk to the talk to their own gp um it's not an easy situation to be in at all and and i've sympathy on both sides what i wanted to do is offer um an alternative so that a woman if she can get to letter kenny if she can come into us that we are here we will do the smear test for them um and then with the gps look if they can um at all accommodate somebody that um you know is really concerned about her health that you know it's a life-saving um procedure it doesn't take that long and you know there are always extenuating circumstances that could be accommodated okay strong points well made mary thank you very much indeed and uh we'll have a contact number for the donagall women's center here uh if you wish to make contact that's us for a friday thursday we're back tomorrow with you on friday we have our friday panel with lots of discuss to discuss between nine and ten tomorrow uh and then plenty of content between 10 and 11 and then we switch off a little bit as much as we can to talk all things entertainment with michael and finula from 11 o'clock to ease ourselves into the weekend uh i want to thank um i want to thank dona marie daherty and emma rine for the research and uh production of the program today and all this week so far we're back with you as i mentioned tomorrow morning at nine stay tuned john breslin's up around the northwest after the news at 12 it's massive savings on garden furniture now in home store and more you can save hundreds of your


Some points on the related paper. I think what it really needs is more precision and some issues need to be made more explicit. For instance, it's not really clear what exactly you are looking at. What are your precise and explicit research question? What are your processes? What are your conceptual and theoretical grounds? For instance, that also includes the part on aquifood systems. You would need to define in a better way and a more explicit way what exactly is it, what is world transformation furthermore and also a bit more empirical evidence would be good. And then furthermore also the issue of what are now the translating mechanisms between the different issues you are looking at, because you really should avoid the impression that we are talking about something like demographic determinism. You don't do it but I think you should really avoid that and probably you should also discuss a bit, for instance, the role of non-ecoculture, economic sectors, certain social factors, because we have now a debate going on for some years. Young people are increasingly turning their backs against a particular subsistence, the traditional peasant farming. So these things should come in. I know that you cannot really write in length about all of these topics. Of course, we would need to cut down a bit of the redundant seasons, but I think that would be really important. Furthermore, you were mentioning also the climate change impact and you are saying that and also writing that it is not really fully understood and you are not writing about that, but of course there are also issues which are making the whole relationship even more complicated. The trap population issue, so people who are not able to move at all and also here one may wonder what is your clue, what is your conclusion out of that? I mean what does it now mean for this whole story? On the actual methodology, on the data, I think you would also need to make more clear here or at least more explicit how were in particular these projection simulation data, how were they constructed, what were the pre-assumptions here, because one might suspect that if they are based on similar or even the same pre-assumptions, then the outcome of putting them all together would be something like a self-affirming prophecy. I know it's not the case, but I mean also here there's a need to make it more explicit. I really like that in post-presentation, actually, you stressed the importance of seasonal migration, but actually I would shift that or expand it by not only looking at seasonal migration, but rather something like translocality, because that is somewhat, maybe not in economics, but in social science, the overarching concept for all of these circular, seasonal, temporarily limited forms of migration. And back to the role of policies, the paper is also called challenges and opportunities, but so far it remains a bit vague or actually it's not there at all. What are now the challenges and opportunities and what is or what are policymakers supposed to do with regard to equity systems, demography and migration? Thank you.


Hi, I'm Dr. Praveen Ghanagi working as a consultant neurosurgeon and head of the department in department of neurosurgery Manipal Hospital Bangalore For the endoscopic neurosurgery need to be have a first thing is a equipment So you need to have endoscopic equipments You need to have a monitors endoscopic monitors and more important thing is the surgeon needs to be trained in the endoscopic He needs to understand the anatomy of it because it's unlike open surgery The endoscopic surgery the detailed anatomy of the site as well as the disease need to be trained and of course It has a learning curve. So that's why not all cannot do at this Beginning to start with endoscopic neurosurgery. You need to have experienced neurosurgeon for that


So welcome again for people who were not here a few hours ago when I did my first talk, thanks for coming. At this time I'm going to speak about the Fediverse and Mastodon. Probably before, but not a picture of me. I didn't change jobs since one hour ago. I'm still a system administrator. Freda is working in the open source program office. I must be helping community projects and my co-worker or committee manager. And before discussing about Fediverse and Mastodon, I will do a quick recap of the history so far. So 1971, Elon Musk was born. 2022, he decided to buy Twitter and everybody live for Mastodon. I said it was very short. This is a lightning talk, so that's the lightning part. So yeah, what is Mastodon? Everybody will say it's a kind of elephant. It's technically right, but it's not what we are discussing about today. It's a social network web application. That's a free software. Obviously, we are at a free software conference where we speak about free software. It started in 2016. Like a lot of free software projects, it's not named after an animal. For example, Python is not named based on the snack. It's based on Monty Python. So Mastodon is not named based on the elephant, but some US metal band. So go for it. And yeah, a social network using web application. Every intranet has it. The intranet that we use at Fedat has some kind of social network. Nobody used it. Anyone before had it. Nobody used it. Every product on the market has it. So why is it so special? Well, because it's federated using a protocol called ActivityPub. The name is not important. I just mentioned that so you know that it exists. Yeah, but what is the federation? So for people living in Europe, well, Europe is a federation. That's basically people being here and discussing. The US is a federation. The federation is the federation. And in the case of software, what we have is a setup where every node discusses. So there is no specific central server. In the case of Twitter, well, if someone with which decide to smoke too much and buy the company and trash it, well, you can do nothing because it's centralized and he has money and that's it. In the case of Mastodon, worst case, you can buy a server, trash it and turn out that there is a ton of others. So that's not enough. So how do you work when you have no central server to decide who is who and who discuss? Well, it will rely on well-known technology, DNS, you know. Some things that always work but you cannot live without it. And a system called Webfinger because DNS is not enough. So you need more. I again just mentioned it's not important to know. And right now, the whole network, which is the Fediverse, it's close to 13,000 nodes. That's a lot. So there is some node with one person, for example mine. There is basically me and maybe a bot account that I never used because it's a social network but it works also for people who are not very social. And there is bigger nodes. That's the amount of people this morning. That's a lot. I mean, it's like the size of one or more, maybe. It's definitely bigger than my city. And since it's federated, you can also have multiple software. So Mastodon is one but there is other. For example, Mobilison, which is made by French people I know which is used to do events. So like not do strike but it could work for that. Owncast, which is a server for doing webcast and streaming. Next cloud that I should not have to present but I will still present. You can use that because there is an activity pub component so you can chat and micro blog from your drive server. There is something called Funkroll which allows to exchange songs. I got that list this morning from Wikipedia. So just go to Wikipedia. There is more space on my side and it's more up to date. So one of the interesting parts about Federation is that it impacts a lot of the culture on the network and everything. So for example, you need to choose an instance because if you go on some place, you will discuss with some people. If you go on another place, you will discuss with others. Since everything is federated, you can discuss with each other but there is different rules. It's kind of like 20 years ago, you had to decide your email and not just go to Gmail or Hotmail, you had choice. That's basically the same. And the instance are either divided by language. If you speak French, maybe you want to speak with other French people instead of going on Japanese animation instance where you understand nothing. Or sometimes it's by topic. There is discussion related to free and open source software. Something for academics. There is different policy around the instance. Some people who are very strict, some people who are more like very free speech and we welcome Nadze because that's free speech, this kind of stuff. So yeah, you have to pick an instance. And it's okay, it's much easier than move around because you also have to pick a city but here you can just click and move to another place. It do not work like this for your nationality or this kind of thing. So just pick, you do not like, move somewhere else. And of course, since it's federated that means that nobody has power over the other or I mean no one has ultimate power which means that there is new type of drama which is fascinating in itself. For example, I gave the example of free speech instance who say yeah, we do not care about anything as long as it's legal and if it's legal in the US that's great. Well, it tends to clash with anarchist instance who for example do not like fascist. You know the whole part of anti-fascist, they are against fascist. So they tend to clash and usually what happens is people just blacklist each other and disconnect and for some reason it's something that people think is bad. But when you do the count with that much node that means that there is a million of potential link. So yeah, obviously some of them will be problematic and will be cut and I remember discussing about that and I'm like yeah, sure there is 20 people we can not discuss with 20 other people but for a million of folks it's nothing and yet sometimes it's seen as a big deal. So far nobody blocked me but I say nothing so it's easier. So yeah, my thought was mostly for community and official presence of project because we had the discussion in the federal community like people said oh yeah, we need to be present on Mastonant which okay, sure, why not? We are on other social network and it's the one where everybody is going and then the question is how do we do? So we can start by using an existing server. That's easy, you have nothing to do you just need to create an account. The problem is you need to find a sustainable server because if it's made by volunteers volunteers tend to have a life outside of their unpaid volunteering and they also sometimes tend to use crappy hardware forget to do backup, this kind of thing so you need to choose a tech vacation yeah, sometimes volunteer tech vacation nobody's here to restart the server. You need to decide for moderation and reputation again, it's not great if you have your federal account just next to an AD account so you need to verify that. You need to also match with the local community like for example federal would be great with something related to hacking something related to free software not so great about people discussing the French cuisine and its delicacy and interesting stuff and then there is the question how do we know that it's you because anybody can create an account anywhere so you do not just need to say it's me so there is then another solution which is using your own domain that's my preferred one because people know that if it's written federal project then it's federal then you have two choices the first one paid hosting so paid hosting is cheap it's 10€ per month the only problem is if you are working in a big free software company based in the US well you have to deal with procurement and it's easily 6 months of meeting so yeah, just to spend 10€ then there is the solution of self hosting and that's why I'm doing that presentation so for self hosting you can decide to go with Mastono which is the default software you want that everybody follow because everybody use and the problem is standard web application I've seen worse but it's not because you can torture me with something based on Java and Scala that you should have something complicated to force me to do that so it's like you need Postgres you need Rails I guess Freddy's and Sidekick and this kind of stuff so it's pretty doable but it's still consuming a lot of resource or you can use something small I use a software called Goto Social and it's great because it's a static go long binary the installation is curl start it can use the database but you can use SQLite so nothing to do with that no configuration everything is done with environment if you work at Fedat for a community just contact my team and we will be happy to have people to test your deployment because when there is meeting I do not listen and I do some work and experimental stuff so I have already everything deployed for that and that's just the part about deploying because when you are doing for your own account you do not share your account it's like your toothbrush you do not share them when you are in a community you can share the account you do not share the toothbrush just the account so we found that there is two issues the first one is how do you post because you can pass the password around and it's not secure and if you do that I would pretend that I didn't hear you doing that but there is several ways you can use a few services to schedule post on Twitter people use Tweetdeck which is Twitter only people who are using Hootsuite which is not working for Mastonaut I know that Buffer supports it there is a various tool one called Mastonaut scheduler another one called Feed2AP which takes RSS feed and post on Mastonaut and various bot or you can write your own I was supposed to do that for my co-worker but it turned out it's too complicated to authenticate using OOS so I was just waiting for a single password authentication and it's not yet developed so I did nothing and then there is the other issue which is receiving because you are going to post and say something and people will try to interact with you but if it's a bot well computer do not answer chatGPT is not really answering it's just pretending to be so you need to have a notification for that and again that's an open problem it should not be really too hard it's basically writing a client removing the part where you deal with actual user and UX so it's mostly getting events and then sending an email and for some reason nobody did it yet but if you want to find something for an intern I'm ready to give that intern some work to do related to that we have no budget in my team so we cannot do that and that's the end for my presentation so if you want to contact me again I'm not on social network except Mastonaut but it's my private one so it's not on the slide so you can contact me at miscathreaded.com or own IRC or internal stuff or whatever that's it and well that's the end that's why you are supposed to upload
