expertly and they should have too but but you just think from our master's perspective they either went for the game a bit more and we've been saying that about them all season they haven't been going for games they've been playing I mean even yesterday the next spare defender and they dropped a half forward and a half back and you're thinking right they just want to go monahan right we're going to eke out a point factory and there's the dangers of it like it goes to a draw and you go out in panels back to the north west i mean terry couldn't have taken quote for granted they did the job though 112 to 18 yeah some of their game like as as the as the carry and doubling game did all the damage just at the start of the second half and then completely controlled it and you just feel sorry for cork coming into the very forward like their very defense then because you just don't think you have the skills and if you look at me obviously you actually like it was a bit cringe worthy to watch i'm looking at me nobody has playmaker ability and at me all team may only need space to play or they can't play they need a game to be in the end or or they're in trouble and you've seen jobs been done the machines and the grass commented a job on them and once doubling found their shape and their rhythm they sucked them in and in many ways uh derry did that to cork then they're breaking into space probably could have beat them by a bit more but it's a huge ask in the semi-final now you know well i mean can you see anything other than a carry doubling final yeah and there's been shocks all year and and you'd think that's carry derry a doubling monahan by the way for i mean monahan we took monahan a part of the times up in heli park you know and listen we were obviously there's a new team forming there but but certainly i can't believe that monahan side now is in a semi and they think that they could take on uh you know a team like doubling is is a huge stretch whatever whatever chance i think there may be a bit of chance with the with the derry if they can hang in the game against carry but then again the way carry and doubling played the last day but we've seen it all year in the championship don't judge a team on this last game you know but certainly it's crow park now it's doubling and carry and if you look at all ireland semi-final last year you know come back to that unbelievable kick from sean oh shea and it looks like with doubling this year they're saying right we have to win this all ireland you know desi farle if you look at it comes in this first all ireland the year one's all ireland and they've lost the next couple of seasons and the question marks are hanging hanging over them so should he want another one i think you know we can leave two all irelands in four years not bad not a bad result they'll say that this and that first one was in the back of the jim gavin air and you haven't been able to put things right so i think this year where the lads come on back you know cluckson mccaffrey manion and you've seen them particularly come on the sub small coming on yesterday keo and kyl kinney those players particularly manion mccaffrey cluckson they weren't playing last year against carry and conno killing was injured now they're four dublin's best players and if you look at it now they're back in that team and they're back in the groove so at this point you know if you put that against last year they would have beaten carry so sir i would put dublin in this life what can deri do when when you see what carry did to tarone like and and then you saw the kind of game deri had with corg what can deri do you can't contain carry can you or what can tactically they do they can't take them on and they can't keep them out so what do you do well they are good they are good at snuffing out teams if you think back even they are yeah um if you think back i suppose that league game against dublin remember the division two final that they did in the first half really snuffed them out and the dublin did open them up for goals in the second half so listen they're always improving of course keo mcfall and they're uh lot of Murray fellas they are a bit better than last year but you just look at the way the two sides played at the weekend if they play the cat listen it's a it's a deri what's going to happen is you're going to have to have a performance drop uh from carry and dub and and deri they play at their absolute best they make this a game so there's there's possibilities there i mean connelly's gilligan will be on this evening but he's he's of course an ex deri star and and kiran wheeling kiran wheeling of course yeah on the talk about the the dubs and what he sees it he's on the Sunday game regular good good good lads to give us opinions we'll be interested to see what they see right okay so we've got dublin legend kiran wheeling former deri star connelly's gilligan on the all island series of the weekend that we've just been discussing then we mentioned earlier on maxi coran uh the lonely all ladies manager and of course also morey old donnell uh talking about the victory over meath and and and what we need to do heading into that game with dublin anything else is that it that's plenty that you will cram that in there great yep i was going to say listen uh brend thanks very much indeed great to have you back all right brend and if any there the deal debate is on after seven and it's supported by sister sisters sister our kitchen excellent restaurant and a great place to be yeah come down

goddess you cannot continue into vest investigates all the circumstances of an alleged assault that is reported to have occurred in the sleeve league kelly begs area between saturday the 24th and sunday the 25th of june well earlier this morning guardie with the assistance of the coast guard recovered a body from the water at sleeve league the remains have since been removed from the scene and taken to letter kenny university hospital the state pathologist has been notified and a post mortem will take place in due course now an instant room has been established at bali shallon guarder station under the direction of a senior investigating officer so they're continuing to put out the appeal that you've been hearing for the last number of days but the obviously major development in that story is that a body has been recovered from the water at sleeve league so i'd imagine we'll get an update on the status and direction of that investigation if not today certainly tomorrow and they were waiting for such a discovery i think before they could formally suggest in which direction that investigation was going but just to confirm a body has been recovered from the water at sleeve league the body's been removed to letter kenny university hospital and for a post mortem i believe and as i say i'm sure now we'll get an update from guardie on the direction of that investigation in the very near future right alde has dropped its milk prices just hours after little it's the second price decrease in as many months for the two supermarket giants um a 10 drop in the price of little's own brand milk products come into effect this morning now it's their own brand but they aren't making it they're paying someone for it so the big question is is really it sounds like you know the supermarkets are doing a great thing for us which you know you're looking to save any penny we can it is good news but who's picking up the bill let's see if Keith will boil chair of the irish farmers association liquid milk committee has an insight into this hi keith thanks for joining us right how are you i am good i'm good so uh who's going to pick up the tab for this uh great pr for these companies milk coming down ten cents seemingly almost right across the board and we all know picks up the tab because the one that picks up the tab is always picked up the tab and that's ultimately the farmer you know uh the retailers have spin their jargon and say that though that that's they're taking the hits they don't because ultimately it comes back to the farmer every time we know this it has happened for for for the last 10 years we've taken up the stack so it's not going to be any different does that happen directly do they come to you and say we're dropping it 10 cents so we're going to give you less 10 cent less or does do they get it out of the farmers down the line how does that process work so basically what happens is that i sell my milk to a processor so there's five or six main processors in the country that's supplied and made to the supermarkets and the processor goes into tendering and it's the best price that wins and the certain discounters would be very heavy handed on their on their tendering and they pitch very well after the other and it's whoever's the best price but ultimately the farmer then has left picking up the pieces because that's what's left over for us which is usually always a problem that's not enough so a farmer is in this space also price takers in other words the processors come back to you and say look at we've just neglected negotiated our our new deal and unfortunately we can now give you such and such rather than such and such is that how it works is something i know it's probably more complex in the internet but that is that the nuts and bolts nuts and bolts so basically ultimately you see where it's coming from the global milk price for the last six months has dropped considerably but unfortunately liquid milk so liquid milk is the milk that we buy off-chef 365 days a year so to be a liquid milk there's only 1300 liquid milk suppliers left in this country because each and every one of them have dropped off sold their contracts and got over because it's not viable because what will happen is exactly what you said the retailer will push then the process comes back and says this is what's left and ultimately with the price the input costs associated so to make it clear to keep makes supply in your shelves for the winter we have to have cows cast in the autumn of the year so by doing this we have to feed high concentrated levels to keep the make flowing all year round which is a higher cost obviously cows can't be out on pasture for Christmas and whatnot so they have to be indoors on a higher higher feed and higher costs but unfortunately nobody can seem to understand this we have i have personally myself over the last two years spoken to retailer spoken and highlights the difference in these two systems but nobody wants to listen and the fear we would have now is are they gone too far are they going to keep you know that we talked about price wars so this is exactly what it is they keep cutting the price and we're the ones left to pick up the can pick up the the slack and can't last much longer let's be honest the cost the cost and i i appreciate the cost of living is extremely high because you know i have that cost of living as well as a as a but can i just say on that point Keith at the end of the day there is very strong indications that some retailers are profit gouging that inflation is artificially higher because profits are higher right you know so i mean it is you know it is possible that that these businesses could take the hit that they could absorb these cuts but they're not they're going to pass them down the line from processors down to farmers i would 100 degree and i will be i as a consumer myself rare in a family will be delighted but that doesn't happen we have seen this happen that they keep dropping down the prices and it's left to us and yeah there is and there probably is i would agree there is price gouging but unfortunately i can guarantee you there will be nobody's basket or shopping will be any cheaper next friday than i want last friday because but it might have taken 10 cents a liter or 10 cents for two liters which is only five cents a liter they're using this as as well as a staple it's a staple so it looks like it looks like the you know yeah so and and five cents a liter even if these these retailers have to take that hit it doesn't mean anything to them five cents a liter is an awful lot of money to a dairy farmer and that's what i scale is and we're you have to remember like in all the dairy farmers in in the republic of ireland there's only 1300 registered liquid milk farmers that's all that's left every year we get a drop off every year without fail and and it's and it's deemed an old man's game why is it deemed an old man's game it's deemed an old man's game because the youth don't want to do it because there's no profit is it also a big boys game too and pardon my ignorance because i'm not a farmer keith but i do know there's a lot of dairy farmers that are buying up land because of the amount of cattle per acre or whatever it might be so does that mean that that that we could end up really a consolidation of of of milk production in that you know the bigger the bigger the boys the more resources they have what has happened is you know we pride ourselves in the family farm in ireland and and that's what helps us all over the world family farm and then which is our selling point for curry gold butter in the u.s. it's family farming which is deemed you know 18 900 cows and that's family famine but unfortunately with what all these new restrictions that's coming upon dairy farm farmers in full but derogations and whatnot and it's leaving it in a way that it's going to have to be the survival of the fittest and there's probably a little bit more leverage with the bigger lads to leverage it up and and and be buy or lease or rent more land and which is creating the price of land to be extortionately high now which is another major problem but like last last Friday we you know it all came where derogations which is it's your stocking rate up our farm is going to be cut and like every dairy farmer and farmers across the border working very hard towards trying to be obviously we have to be environmentally friendly and we all are but we're doing the work with but we really need the science to work and we're not giving time and it's it's just creating that exactly what you're saying families running out compete with one another to get land to try and hold the number of cows that they have just to stay viable because let's remember if you have to cut back your cows that means you're cutting back your income so you buy more land to maintain your your main maintain your stock can ask one other question Keith what is the future is it to whittle the industry down like in other words you talk about there being 1300 milk producers in this country like do we get exactly I beg your pardon Keith is it a case that they're trying to get it down to a certain level that will be able to supply our liquid milk requirements in this country or could it get to a point where we're importing milk just pardon the ignorance but I think it's not something that's often discussed because everyone presumes everybody knows so are we over supplying liquid milk at this time or are we getting to a point whereby we might have to import to meet the needs if it became completely unviable to produce liquid milk so yes we actually and we are not over supplying liquid milk for 12 months the year there is a period for December January and coming into February that we actually only just have about enough mate there is a pinch point definitely around Christmas and first to January where it's questionable that have we even enough last Christmas so going forward it would be very I would estimate so I would think that going forward we will have to import milk to keep our own supply for 12 months so I meaning in the December January time of the year where lots of guys dry off all the cows they take six eight weeks off and they'll cap the cows in middle of January early February go to grass and take all the the milk off grass and run the a very low cost not lower cost system than having a calf in the cow and make enough for the winter all right okay thank your question yeah yes it is very likely that we will not have enough make we will have to import milk going forward if this keeps going how is that how is that environmentally retailers for this yeah but how is that environmentally friendly of course it's not of course it's not not not a lot but we we we don't seem to think that far ahead it's just contradictory it's contradictory we let things go before we realize it's gone and that's what has to be and you know we can keep going on and we can hear oh the farmers are crying again it's it's justified this is the thing it is justified why we're crying again and there's a lot of farmers just wouldn't even dream of doing supplying milk 365 days a year you have to remember to supply milk 365 days a year you have to be milking your cows Christmas morning and even worse than a Christmas evening when everybody else is sitting in after having their dinner we have to turn around and go milking cows but we do that and we do but we have to get paid to do it and that is the key to it thanks for your time I appreciate it take care of yourself that is Keith O'Boyle there he's the chair of the Irish Farmers Association liquid milk

greg we're getting 37 pence sorry i beg your pardon we're getting 37 cent per litre for our milk it costs 120 per litre in the shop we're just hanging on by a thread four children to rare and a mortgage plus the massive cost of living farmers won't be able to stick this much longer so 37 cent per litre of milk to the farmer and it's 120 cent per litre in the shop i call it says on the ai matter chat gpt was able to write a convincing cv for a 16 year old chat gpt won't replace people but people use the ai will go further than people who don't use ai well using ai might get you in the door with a good cv but that doesn't necessarily mean that you won't get found out once you're in the business so i don't know it's interesting not contradicting you but there's a couple of ways to look at it right amanda boil is child care development officer with the donningall county child care committee good morning good morning greg good to have you on the show right okay thank you talk to us about this information and recruitment event that's taking place shortly so greg we have as you said an information and recruitment event happening in middle tennie it's coming up on the 12th of july so really what it is it's for an event for the earlier sector across the whole county of donningall and to those we're looking to attract early learning and care services child care services any early years educators that are seeking employment childminders and earlier students so any of those people and you know members of public who just want to find out maybe a wee bit more are interested in a career in early years we should have be able to have information available for people like that as well and so it's it's just to support recruitment across donningall and the earlier sector yeah i mean and obviously we're not going to get into it now because this event is not about it but it is in the space whereby there's an awful lot of conversation and and and some protests about the early child care services but it depends on which area of those services you work within i presume there's still an interest and an appetite from people to get involved in or to upskill within this this service area we definitely think so greg we really do this event is designed to shine that positive light over the sector and to as opposed allow an opportunity for people who are working in the sector or who would like to work in the sector or who have maybe previously worked in the sector to come together to network to ask questions and you're right there is a little bit of um i suppose a wee bit of an issue around recruitment uh across in places in donningall but nationally as well but i suppose there has been a lot of growth earlier services in donningall have been expanding you know there's a high demand for for the sector so that in itself has created some of these recruitment issues as well you know there's movement within any sector but we just find that really the amount of child care services that are growing in response to the demand for child care you know that and that's a big positive thing there's you know there's a level of investment now in early years that we haven't had before we have investment through the euro and the rates of pay for earliest workers we have core funding which is you know millions of euros towards supporting quality high quality child care so we're kind of hoping that by pulling our resources together in one space and getting all of the earliest students and providers and you know people who are maybe unemployed or just want to find out about the sector to come together at the event and get the information they need i mean obviously it's going to appeal to people already operating child care services those working within those services or those interested in joining them but if there are people who might want to establish a child care service for an example absolutely if they see a gap in the market in a particular area will it will it be a worthwhile event for them to attend absolutely new services and existing services so we ourselves will be there and the team from Donegal County Child Care Committee will also hoping to have other organizations that will come and have stands at the event as well which will you know support small businesses about providing information for new startups about expansions about you know kind of anything that they want to know in relation to starting a business and Child Minders as well is an area of growth in Donegal and anybody interested in that we have our Child Mind and Development Officer who will be there on the day and after all the questions that any Child Minders might have whether they're thinking about it or you know they just want to find out a little bit more but I'm welcome to come and chat with the Child Mind and Development Officer we don't target you know the individuals maybe are reluctant to get back into the sector or you are not sure whether they want to do it or not we will have services themselves will be present or a selection of services and they can ask the questions directly about you know the supports that they offer a new entrance into the sector we'll have the local Donegal ETB and ATU so they'll be there as well talking to students or you know anybody who wants to upscale or well that's what I was going to ask you is it is it is it's nothing's easy in this life of course but is it doable to retrain or to pivot or say for instance you left school four or five years ago with a leaving cert and you went into retail or something or if you might have chosen to work is it difficult to uh train up to work in this area or or other pathways for you know say for instance you didn't go on to third level but now you're thinking right this is an area I could work in or maybe you've been working in a different industry and you think this might suit me a little bit better is it is that doable is it possible is it very difficult it's not very difficult Greg it is something that you would definitely encourage someone who's thinking about it and use it this is the sector that would suit their needs and their personality to explore it and as I said ETB and ATU are best placed to support a student at any level whether they are you know entry level or they already have a qualification that will allow them to you know to succeed in a higher level and services also are there and they can talk to potential employees and it's about making that connection between the employers and employees and finding out and asking those questions about well what if I wanted to do A, B or C and you know the services are really good at promoting that within their own teams and having you know a professional workforce that's graduate led is the end goal I guess and managers and child care organizations really do provide many resources that the staff or employees may need to you know get themselves to that next level but even at entry level we will have hopefully there at the event as well the information around schemes and you know entering into employment schemes the child sector which is a great platform because you can study and be centered based while you're going through those schemes so once you've done a full cycle you are then have the experience and the qualification you need to be employed in the sector. Alright okay so it's in the Clannery Hotel letter Kenny on Wednesday the 12th of July so it's a week this Wednesday running from 2 p.m to 6 p.m do people have to register in advance I presume service

is currently working on his next project or one of them anyway tape me home to a pe good morning to you austin thanks for joining us how you doing great thanks for having me good to have you on board here now of course it's clear i think you have a double an accent but you have dunigal connections austin run through them for us yeah yeah back in the 90s um my my aunties live up there auntie and uncle and uncle has passed on since um he did a lot of work up there there's that we're actually not from dunigal but he did a lot of work up there he was a builder and he was stationed up there kind of built in the school for a good few months and then he was called back for a few times after actually watched the uh the 92 all-earned final in in in the open dunigal in there again which obviously was a one for a double a double in person so i thought i remember really from that to be honest yeah wouldn't be it wouldn't be easy to forget okay but anyway um so that's it you've a bit of experience uh of dunigal of course talk to us talk to us about the documentary you're currently working on uh austin um right so it's it's a it was something i made back in college about 10 years ago and it was based on cassette tapes that um i found from when my mom and dad immigrated to australia in 70s and it was just audio cassettes because um my dad's family back in awfully didn't have um didn't have a phone back then so uh so they used to record their voices to to audio cassette and post them back you know and they kind of say there was one phone in the town so uh well i'm sure there's probably a couple more but there was one public phone so they all they often record on on the tapes and say we're gonna call you on this day at 4 pm or whatever so they might organize a phone with that but a phone call that way but um so it's it just so many different memories caught up with that from from talking about new potatoes to new born babies and it's just it's something we're trying to build on now i'm working with a production company now um to make something kind of a bigger um a bigger more more more kind of more national scope of it yeah it's it's quite innovative uh how widespread was this type of communication do you think at the time well i i think there would have been quite a lot like um it's particularly in rural ireland and that's why i kind of called it uh island radio because i thought you know um particularly rural stations and duny god particularly had a lot of emigration i know even more so than a lot of counties and i would i would think this so we're looking for contributors and that's really kind of what i'm on and i i would think there's a lot of people that are kind of affected in the same way and that there's such a comparison to to the communication you can do nowadays but even anything to deal with people that maybe had video recorders and sent them back as well and so i'll just create a lovely amount of story and um yes of them it's pretty different to what you got over the phone and listening back to these tapes how was it conversational had they put bullet points down and said oh i need to tell you about because it says you know and we'll get to hear that presumably as uh once the documentary is released but how did the what form did in your family's case did these tapes take so it was kind of yeah it depended on the night sometimes those um there were just recording a bit of a a bit of a sing song in the house you know maybe it might have been saturday evening and there's a couple of drinks taken and people were kind of getting a bit in the mood for singing and you'd hear somebody calling to the door and they go why you have to sing a song and they'd come in and sing a song or somebody tell a story um the router dies then they'd record in an all-out and foil and and send it over the full the full uh full match commentary and then there was the get on them and mom and dad so they were over in australia they were kind of talking about stuff like different such a different thing like talking about some things that i felt because that was something normal that people had in australia then you know it was speedboats and there was just such a foreign thing to to compare to um living on the channel and in off the in the 70s and out um and i suppose with and not in your family's case but i'm saying generally i suppose to some extent too there's going to be a pattern in that you know people are going to say you know at home it's great it's lovely we're having the crack you're missing it and then for those out foreign it's like well this is a new life look what we have access to an old you know with no uh with no mallets or whatever but i suppose you know especially given the fact that there was a delay in between the tapes arriving and going back and forwards what have you yeah yeah like it was it was it was it was heartbreaking um and even playing the tapes from mom and dad back and voice first of my aunties and uncles um there was heartbreaking thinking what they were missing out on because i know particularly my mom didn't really want to go you know my dad left for a walk at the time and mom didn't really want to go so she was really missing home more than him and i'm trying not to try not to let that honest powers and because it was such a long way away back then as well you know we wasn't you couldn't you couldn't fly back so easily and um and there was very few well there was a lot of Irish over there less connected than they are now there wasn't Irish groups so much and yeah and then i suppose that dad was conscious then of the life he was kind of having there compared to the life he was he couldn't get back home because the walk was but it's great scarce and and yeah so it's one of those ones it's uh it's great to have but yeah so in terms of contributors what are you looking for you're looking for people with tapes are you looking for people who communicated using tapes even if they don't currently have them i mean what what or are you casting them out even wider than that i'm kind of looking for um particularly um audio like sound or video tapes particularly um just because that's kind of the angle we're going on uh in that uh like it would be great to talk to people who have some really good stories and maybe some and photos of the time to back them up but um i'm kind of looking primarily for um yes it could kind of make a suppose a sound or video landscape that we can put on uh on the cv and then talk talk about the stories around particularly interesting stories or a mode of stories my brother was born over there and that was kind of a particularly big story on the original there on the original um the original film i made back in college and for anything like that that kind of has but then small stories about them just as hard warm and you know it's it's uh i think it's also a way of seeing what material comes in and and how it fits into just the storytelling because that's what a documentary is isn't it it's about storytelling that's it so yeah i've got a couple of people at the moment i'm exactly some of those things and it's it's weird because it's it's uh just welcome to see what we have and then you kind of has to say you build a narrative then so you might put all similar types of stories together and then somebody followed by something else or somebody that somebody says somebody says we're having a few messages in talking about you know people that are currently away now obviously you know this is a different form of communication people can can video call and call at will and it's all free i'm wondering what it might be so like is it are we talking about a time period or are you looking for that comparison or what's the story um i wouldn't i suppose originally i was looking for something kind of emigration and communication in a boy gone area and how it compares to now but i wouldn't um i wouldn't pay myself down completely for that because i'd love to do the comparison do to from from then and now as well yeah because i'm not really convinced i don't know um and this is this is sort of just wondering it's nothing to do with your documentary as such much even though i think maybe the fact that you can't get back and forwards a little bit easier though it's still a struggle for most might be different but i don't know how sort of live video calls a live phone calls if it makes it much better than it was with delayed tapes if you know what i mean because it still is impersonal and even to some extent it might make it a little bit more difficult because you're you're ever constantly regularly reminded of that separation and and the gap you know i do wonder if if it's in a perverse way well it's probably not a perverse way but if it's a little bit more even probably a bit more difficult for moms and dads at the moment yeah true that's a good way wouldn't it actually yeah yeah and and also if it's somewhere like like australia where there's a time difference as well so it's a real upset a good upset but an upset to your date and i said coverage you've got this call at 11 o'clock and they're doing you know they might be heading out to walk at that time over in australia and you know it's 11 p.m. for you so surreal kind of there's a break in in in kind of in what you're doing and just you know in general that's conversation with somebody and there's they're they're in a completely different mood or opposed to new art and time and it just feels really strange and it's yeah in a way it's kind of yeah then they and they talk about this on in the document and the documentary i made that it's so nice to hear the tape at your leisure and sit down and play it at your leisure and go and and then think about making notes on what you're going to write back or send back to them as you know you wouldn't want to just leave every tape with the question you'd be there all day waiting for answers okay so just just just just very finely and there is an original documentary that you've already done someone sort of this came across someone's death presumably and thought right we can expand on that or we can develop that out so can people listen to the original documentary in is a and b where how do you want people to contact you if they've got some material that would fit into the conversation we've been having yeah um well the list the original documentary is on youtube um it's a video documentary um so it's uh i actually don't have the exact link now but i did send it to your producer right okay we can link that out yeah yeah and um for me um i'd love to people's contact me on any twitter i'm on i'm austin kenny that's a u s t i m a e n n y uh just austin kenny won uh the number one and on uh facebook and instagram i'm austin dot kenny dot 75 um so yeah anyway i got a there's a phone number as well which i can leave with it with yeah we'll leave it with it we're not ready that we have it okay austin listen uh thanks for that interesting stuff and i'm sure you're for votes on memories for people as well in reminding them that such a thing might have happened all right take care uh austin kenny the documentary maker did you communicate in that way is it more difficult now as i say i'm supposing i'm not currently in that situation and i i would find it quite difficult i struggle with it but many of you out there are but i mean is it you know that access those videos cause does it make it a little bit easier uh i wonder all right we're going to finish up with some comments that have been coming in in relation to the new road coming into letter kenny what's the purpose the trees okay that's a repeat of one we had earlier i don't know we're not able to answer that question because it's kind of subjective isn't it hi greg who approves roadworks traveling don fanny to letter kenny taking over an hour due to roadworks in three different locations on one road i don't know uh colis says is the junior g is the g a a senior football championship set up in such a way to have a doubling carry final or am i paranoid well i don't know the ins and outs but i think into the semis the draws it was decided that if teams had met before they couldn't be paired again in the semis isn't that correct so i don't know if that contributed to uh this theory that a double and carry final had been created i don't know i'm not sure you wouldn't rule anything in an ad but who's to say uh morning greg beach is closed of look closed uh beach beach is closed look at uh uh the whore beach we've no access to our beach we were in livered and none of the councillors stood for us only ian mcgarvey and frank mcburtey um i think i'm familiar with that case all right is that a another one of those which becoming more and more um we see more and more and i was had a rights of way issue there i wonder i suspect it very well might be i have a query regarding home help says this listener my mother's home care company have been working on a skeletal staff lately they have requested family to help out we're a very small family and aren't available at all times my query is that because the company has a contract with the hsc if they're unable to fulfill that contract are they not obliged to ask the hsc to seek help from other agencies so this is a company subcontracted by the hsc to offer home help they're short on staff they've asked the family to help out the family on in a position to do so all of the time and their question is is this company not fulfilling its contract and if so are they not obliged to ask the hsc to seek help from other agencies any insights into that again 08 660 25 000 my granddaughter was recently sick and her mom called now doc for an appointment when the phone was answered by now doc and he heard the child they said not to wait for an appointment and they called for an ambulance to come to our home and today i got a bill for a hundred euro why am i paying this bill when they made the call as opposed to seeing and accessing the child first surely this charge is via them and not me as my granddaughter has a medical card that's a complicated one don't know how you'd get to the bottom of that one but i think even if you call now doc you're kind of giving over to them to make a medical decision they caused called the ambulance uh but if they did should it be a hundred euro should it not be less and also the child's on a medical card how is that factored in i don't know the answer to that question uh greg i have to ask uh as to why you label yourself when you query or question you said today that you're not anti-establishment which i'm not just clarifying and recently uh you're not an extremist or a conspiracy theorist why do you feel the need to label yourself when you ask questions is that not part of the problem should we not question everything uh i think we should yes indeed but you know yourself perhaps i do it too much but uh it's no harm knowing again clarifying your position because people tune in and out you know and i don't believe i'm a particular shock jock or am i you know i'm pretty much um uh i i will keep it in mind i appreciate your feedback all right i want to thank Donna Marie Daherty and uh Nev working on the show today uh we're back with you tomorrow morning at nine o'clock and just a reminder for you that Sean Daherty father Sean Daherty will be joining us on the show tomorrow as well for his first live chat since uh being ordained into the priesthood that and so much more besides don't miss it the 9 till noon show is brought to you by letter c


You really need to have the right kind of mindset to succeed and when I talk about succeed I'm not talking about succeeding in Linux although we can talk about that as well But really in life if you want to succeed in life You need to have the right kind of mindset because there's really two kinds of mindsets out there There are the people that have a fixed mindset where they're not really interested and growing learning Evolving beyond where they're at and then you have the people that have the growth mindset where they want to grow They want to evolve they want to become more than they currently are and that's the mindset you really have to have Especially with Linux, you know When I talk about having the proper mindset to use Linux to learn Linux or I sometimes talk about the Linux mindset I'm talking about having the growth mindset where you want to get up under the hood You know you embrace that challenge you want to get down and dirty get your hands dirty and you want to find a problem you want to solve it and You you're proud afterwards that you solved that problem because you gained a little bit of knowledge from doing that And it's really easy to spot the people that have the fixed mindset and the people that have the growth mindset Anybody that you really know so think about all your family members and your friends You know immediately the ones that have the fixed mindset and the ones that have the growth mindset All you need to do is think about how they take on challenges for example the ones that have a fixed mindset What do they do with challenges? They avoid them They don't like challenges challenges are hard They avoid challenges at all costs the ones that have a growth mindset love challenges They embrace the challenge, right? They see it as an opportunity to overcome and by overcoming that adversity They can grow as a person and you can really spot the fixed mindset crowd in the linux community versus the growth mindset The fixed mindset people they're the ones that they settle on something some piece of software They settle on a distribution They settle on the suite of software that they use and they never want to explore other options because The other options are going to be a challenge because then they have to learn something new and maybe those other options Actually have a steeper learning curve than what they're actually using so they these are the people that you know They install a boon to and use a boon to for five ten 20 years, you know, but they never explore You know, hey, why don't you try arch? You know arch is kind of a cool distribution Why don't you go install gen 2 play with slack where why don't you install linux from scratch in a virtual machine and play around with some of that? No, I I'm not learning that that's that's too hard. That's too time consuming. I'm not wasting all my time Ain't nobody got time for that You know, they're the ones that you know are using text editors like nano or g edit and things like that And hey, have you considered learning vim? I think you'd be happy with vim It's such a powerful utility to to know. No, I can't learn that right that takes too much time I'm not wasting all my time to learn something new. I'm happy with where I'm at another way You can tell the difference between the fixed mindset and the growth mindset is how people Obstacles or how they just handle obstacles in general because the fixed mindset, they're not going to overcome an obstacle They're just going to give up. They're going to give up easily These are the people in the linux community that they can't get a certain linux distribution Installed, you know, they install it and as soon as they get any kind of error They just give up and move on to the next distribution and hope that works Or, you know, they can't configure a tiling window manager For example, I I hear from people like this all the time because I do so much tiling window manager content on my channel As these people, hey, I can't get dwm configured. I can't get awesome configured.  They don't go to the documentation And you know, many of these tiling window managers have really good documentation They'll find all the answers in the documentation. They don't even bother looking right They just give up as soon as they encounter any kind of resistance in contrast the person with the growth mindset You know, when they encounter some kind of obstacle They're happy about it because it gives them opportunity to learn something to find a problem Fix it and learn from that and these are the kind of people that really Want to persist in the face of adversity How much effort people put into something is another clue as to which mindset they are the fixed mindset They see effort as fruitless. They see it as pointless You know, they don't want to put effort into anything because what's the point, right? Well, the growth mindset they see effort, you know hard work as hey, this is this is good because effort is really The path to mastery an obvious Linuxy example of this is, you know, the people that I hear from all the time with emacs, right? I'm not going to learn emacs learning emacs. That's pointless. I've actually heard that You know that exact word learning emacs would be pointless anyone that tells you that learning anything is pointless They're in the fixed mindset because the growth mindset sees learning no matter what it is You know, just having that extra knowledge as a plus how people receive and handle criticism is another clue as to which mindset they're in So the fixed mindset crowd, they don't handle negative criticism at all. They just completely ignore it It doesn't matter if it's just troll negative comments, you know that that I understand that I can understand ignoring You know those kinds of negative criticisms, but most negative criticism you get in life is constructive criticism And you need to hear that but the fixed mindset they don't want to hear that Where the growth mindset they understand that negative criticism you can learn from that Unfortunately, we have people in the linux community that are like this that have the fixed mindset that can't handle any Negative criticism at all sometimes you see some devs and some maintainers of software sometimes even linux distributions That just can't handle any kind of negative feedback You also see this with content creators You know on youtube and odyssey and other video platforms or even a audio podcast, you know some content creators Can't really deal with people criticizing their work.  They never have a negative comment Well, of course they have negative comments. We all get negative comments It's just that particular creator is one of the fixed mindset creators, right? He he deletes every negative comment Even the constructive criticisms.  That's that's wonderful. I love hearing that because Maybe I didn't know how bad my audio was in that particular video And maybe I need to go check the settings on some of my equipment and things like that because if somebody doesn't actually tell me And I didn't catch it myself Then the next video I'm going to make is going to have that same hot garbage audio in it And one final way where you can really spot the two different mindsets is how people see the success of others Because the fixed mindset crowd they feel threatened by other people's success, right? And I'm not talking about even like at their workplace where you know, you're actually competing against other people in your office In your job, you know for promotions and things like that But even there you really shouldn't be threatened by people You should be happy for people that are getting promoted and succeeding with that company because if they can do it That means you can do it if you don't see anybody else Rising up, you know and succeeding in that company. That's actually a bad sign But many people have it all twisted in their minds in contrast the growth mindset kind of person. He sees Inspiration from other people succeeding. You know, he finds lessons in other people's success in the Linux community I've seen this fixed mindset kind of crowd show up as far as the success of others Especially the success of other Linux distributions You see sometimes where the devs or the maintainers of a parent distribution They really feel threatened by the success of this offspring of theirs, right this distribution based on them Because sometimes the distribution based on them Actually becomes more popular sometimes much more popular and then the parent distribution You know kind of feels threatened or sometimes even the users of that parent distribution for whatever reason feel threatened by the success of this other Linux distribution and it's weird to me because Because if you're based off of this other distribution and you're succeeding Guess what? You're helping the parent distribution too, right? It's like a rising tide lifts all ships and I don't understand why some people just don't understand that concept So you really have to have the right mindset to succeed at Linux to succeed at your work to succeed at life, right?  You want to transcend, right?  And you can't just stay still, you know, it's like treading water You can tread water But eventually you're going to get tired and then you're gonna sink and then you'll be on that descending path anyway So in short, you're either growing Or you're regressing Now before I go I need to thank a few special people. I need to thank the producers of this episode I need to thank absi gave james mitchell west a commie allen chuck david dylan gregory urion alexander paul Polly tix scott steven spend wesson willy these guys. They're my highest-tiered patrons over on patreon without these guys This episode you just watched would not have been possible The show's also brought to you by each and every one of these ladies and gentlemen as well All these names you're seeing on the screen right now These are all my supporters over on patreon because i'm supported by you guys the community If you'd like to support my work look for distro tube over on patreon. All right guys peace The people that love to assign blame which mindset or they do you think?


Hello, myself, M.V. Bhogade, assistant professor from CSC department of WIT, Shalapur. Today, we are going to see some points from UML diagrams. So, at the end of this session, students will be able to understand the basics of UML diagrams. These are the contents of this session. UML, that is Unified Modeling Language, is a diagramming language for specifying, designing, and visualizing the components of a software system. Object Management Group created the language in January 1997. The goal of UML, there are a number of goals for developing UML. But the most important is to define some general purpose modeling language, which all modellers can use, and it also needs to be made simple to understand and use. Object-oriented concepts. UML can be described as the successor of object-oriented analysis and design. Objects are the real-world entities that exist around us. And the basic concepts such as abstraction, encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism all can be represented using UML objects. It represents an entity and the basic building block. Next is class. Class is the blueprint of an object. Next is abstraction. It represents the behavior of a real-world entity. Next is encapsulation. Encapsulation is the mechanism of binding the data together and hiding them from the outside world. Next is inheritance. Inheritance is the mechanism of making new classes from existing ones. The last one is polymorphism. It defines the mechanism to exist in different forms. We can category in two ways like structural diagram and behavioral diagram. So this is the diagrammatic representation of it. There are three building blocks of UML. Those are things, relationships, and diagrams. Things are the most important building blocks of UML. Things can be structural, behavioral, grouping, or annotational. Structural things define the static part of the model. They represent the physical and conceptual elements. Following are the brief descriptions of the structural things. The first one is class. Class represents a set of objects having similar responsibilities. Interface defines a set of operations which specify the responsibility of a class. Next is collaboration. It defines an interaction between elements. So this is the representation of collaboration. Next is use case. It represents a set of actions performed by a system for a specific goal. So we can represent use case by ellipse. Next is component. It describes the physical part of a system. Next one is node. A node can be defined as a physical element that exists at run time. So node is represented like a cube. A behavioral thing consists of the dynamic parts of the UML models. Interaction is defined as a behavior that consists of a group of messages exchanged among elements to accomplish a specific task. State machine is useful when the state of an object in its life cycle is important. It defines the sequence of state and object goes through it in response to events. Events are external factors responsible for state change. So we can represent the state in this fashion. Grouping things can be defined as a mechanism to group elements of a UML model together. There is only one grouping thing available that is package. So package is the only one grouping thing available for gathering structural and behavioral things. So it is represented by a rectangle above a rectangle. Annotational things can be defined as a mechanism to capture remarks, descriptions and comments of UML model elements. Okay? Node. It is the only one notational thing available. A node is used to render comments, constraints, etc. of an UML elements. Relationship is another most important building block of UML. It shows how the elements are associated with each other and this association describes the functionality of an application. So first is dependency. A dependency means the relationship between two or more classes in which a change in one force changes in another. However, it will always create a weaker relationship. dependency indicates that one class depends on another. In the following example, students has a dependency on college. A generalization helps to connect a subclass to its superclass. A subclass is inherited from its superclass. Generalization relationship can't be used to model interface implementation. Class diagram allows inheriting from multiple superclasses. So this is the diagram representation. Next is association. The kind of relationship represents static relationships between classes A and B. For example, an employee works for an organization. Here are some rules for association. Association is mostly verb or a verb phrase or noun or noun phrase. It should be named to indicate the role played by the class attached at the end of the association path. Mandatory for reflexive associations. Next is associations. In this example, the relationship between student and college is shown which is studies. So in the left diagram shows the relationship between student and the college is studies. And the right diagram shows the multiplicity. That is represented with the star. A multiplicity specifies whether the association is mandatory or not. It has some lower bound and upper bound. Let's say that there are 100 students in one college. The college can have multiple students. Aggregation is a special type of association that models a whole part relationship between aggregation and its parts. So we can represent the aggregation in this format. For example, the class college is made up of one or more students. In aggregation, the contained class is never totally dependent on the life cycle of the container. Here, the college class will remain even if the student is not available. Aggregation is a special type of aggregation which denotes strong ownership between two classes when one class is a part of another class. So we can represent composition in this fashion. For example, if college is composed of class students, the college could contain many students which each student belongs to only one college. So if college is not functioning, all the students also removed. Aggregation indicates a relationship where the child can exist separately from their parent's class whereas in composition displays relationship where the child will never exist independent of the parent. So the example of aggregation is automobile that is parent and car that is child. So if you delete the automobile, the child that is car still exists. So the example of composition is house that is parent and room that is child. Room will never separate into a house. A class is a blueprint that is used to create objects. The class defines what objects can do. So what is a class diagram? The class diagram gives the static viewer of an application. A class diagram describes the type of objects in the system and the different types of relationships that exist among them. UML class diagrams gives an overview of a software system by displaying the classes, attributes, operations and their relationships. This diagram includes the class name, attributes and operations in separate designated compartments. Class diagram helps constructs the code for the software application development. Next is the benefits of class diagram. Class diagram illustrates data models for even very complex information systems. It provides an overview of how the application is structured before studying the actual code. This can easily reduce the maintenance time. It helps for better understanding of general semantics of an application. It allows drawing detailed charts which highlights code required to be programmed. It is helpful for developers and other stakeholders. Essential elements of UML class diagrams are class name, attributes and operations. So class name, the name of a class is only needed in the graphical representation of the class. The class is rendered as a rectangle including its name, attributes and operations in separate compartments. Next is attributes. An attribute is named property of a class which describes the object being modeled. In the class diagram, this component is placed just below the name of compartment. A derived attribute is computed from other attributes. For example, an age of the student can be easily computed from his or her birth date. So this is an example of a class diagram, UML class diagram. So here there are many relationships, associations and so it is a diagram of a bank and ATM systems. Take a pause, can you tell the purpose of UML? As we have seen, the purpose of UML is its diametric language for specifying, designing and visualizing the components of a software system. So these are the references. Thank you.


How does combative wing chun compare to self-defense systems like Krav Maga? Krav Maga and other self-defense systems like that are great and they're really good for learning how to protect yourself, getting in good shape and usually after 6 to 12 months you'll learn pretty much everything you need to know in order to defend yourself efficiently and effectively against most situations that you encounter in the street if you train on a regular basis but after you train all that, then what's next? What do you do after that? So that's where combative wing chun comes in because we go beyond just the fighting. We will teach you that, we'll give you the mindset, all the tactics, all the skills that you need to defend yourself but after you learn all that stuff, then what? We teach you the internal kung fu, that's what you get. An internal kung fu is something that you can take with you into your old age even if you're 90 or even 100 years old, you'll be able to use an internal kung fu, internal power because you cannot have big muscles, it's hard to keep up with those big muscles when you're old. You have a long diminishing return. So what's going to happen is that you need some kind of internal power. We teach you how some of these things in our program, how to cultivate that so that it grows, that you have health and vitality and strength and power even well into your old age. So a lot of self-consent systems will not teach you any of that. And we also go beyond just that and we also teach you life skills and we also teach you self-mastery which is priceless. How much does it worth to you to be able to achieve anything that you want in your life? That's priceless, isn't it? So we go beyond just the fighting, beyond just the techniques and we go and we teach you those things. So that's where we are different from a lot of other self-defense schools.


Ghana is my home, Ghana is my home Ghana, Ghana is my home Cest of March, 1957 Ghana Independence Day Everybody to where Mr. Ghana baby, right here in the motherland I'm so excited when I found myself in Ghana But where I am right now, I just don't want to be excited Because I feel like it's the place that when you come you just have to take some time and reflect whatever happened in here Your name is? Tanisha You say your name is the girl with vision? Girl with vision That's your Instagram handle? Instagram Why do you call yourself the girl with vision? I don't know because I feel like, you know I've been having a lot of visions And I feel like I live through my visions So when I see, that's what I put out You told me that it's your first time of living in America And it's your first time in the first country And this is the door of Naughty Town And upstairs They call this place the door of Naughty Town Which means that a lot of our ancestors were taken right from this place And they never returned So we, being the grandchildren It's time for us to revisit Mother Africa Trust me I'm gonna go out here Go off, not return But trust me It's time for us to return It's exciting You feel like you're home And strong Yo, you know what?

Yes, come home The reason why I said come Actually come And see this land I would suggest If you were gonna come Then maybe look at like Places to go Like maybe go to Europe For a day or two And then come From people to travel that way Since trying to come To the continent Just all Directly It's just way Way way more expensive Like to travel from America to here Is almost over a thousand USD To get here So they're keeping it That price for a reason But like I said I feel like The only way you will know About the history Come see for yourself The only way You're gonna step outside Your comfort zone And become more comfortable Within yourself Is to come see your land Your home land We are not Americans We are Africans They attach the ending American African-American To the end of our name But we're really Africans inside We are real Africans So come come and see for yourself Don't just let me And what I tell you But just come Come see for yourself And you I'm telling you It will humble you It will really humble you I have I've received nothing But just Like I said Love Love And I know that that's the word I'm using But that is what we need To even unify our people We need love It's all about love And I would say that Love your brother Love your sister Yes That's one I love you I love you Thank you


My name is Liz Jackson, and I'm hanging out with the legend himself, Ankhu Chali. Ni Chaliama Shali. Depending on your Nazari school teacher, ineza kwa Shari, Chali, Chalis. I mean, it depends. Venyuruna itaka. So long as duku na chana lima ali. So today we are at African Nazarene University, and you are a judge. And from what I could hear, it's like you are with the participants for about a week or something. Well, not exactly a week, but okay. The way African campus battle is designed is that we do auditions early in the week, like say Wednesday. Then we give them nuggets on what to correct, on how to go about their acts. And then now Friday we have what you call the campus showdown. Now that's what we have had now. So now everyone who performed here had already been auditioned on Wednesday. They had Thursday to prepare.  So basically that is what happens. But then over the week we also have other programs like we have mentorship. We have a bit of entrepreneurship where they get opportunity to interact with the corporates. Like now we have had Uba the whole week here. We have had Lashia the whole week here. So they also get a chance to interact with some of these products or services. Where they can also call it pocket money or something small from just being able to maybe sell some of these products or some of these services. Let's talk about the winner. What specifically made the judges settle on the winner today? Well she stood out. She prepared well. She did an exceptional piece. And of course not all of them can be winners. So at least we have to pick one who embodied the entire performance and expressed exactly what our theme is. Beauty begins with you. And of course you could actually see she is very passionate about her art. Throughout the week she kept asking what do I need to do, how do I improve it and all that. You could even see she even tried some makeup on. I mean she was not just an ordinary performer. She went a step further. So of course that made her stand out. Will you consider talent coaching? Come again? Talent coaching. Will you consider to coach talents? Like for example tell singers maybe not an agency but basically just have talents and are you where you guide them? Well I would but I mean I've been doing it. I feel like you've been doing it. I mean I've been doing it. People come to me ask me what do I need to do to improve my acting. What do I need to do to improve my writing. What do I need to improve whatever skill that I have. And well let me tell you the best way to coach people. Direct them to the right people. I'm not necessarily the best person to tell you everything. Because I mean I'm also just talented in specific fields here or specific areas. So if I know you are good at something, the best way to coach someone is to direct them to the right people or the right places or even the right institutions. Talent is no longer just things you do at your leisure. It's now a career career. Unfortunately in Kenya talent is leisure. Career is science. Doctor, engineer those are the ones who continue their careers. Singing is not a career. It's something we will just do as a leisure. But then we need to change that attitude. So that people take talent as a career in infuse business aspect into it. And then make money out of it and a livelihood. Alright thank you so much for talking to us. We do appreciate it. Guys my name is Liz Jackson. See you on the next one.


Okay friends today we're going to learn about counting by tens. We're gonna learn counting by tens with a ten bar. What is this called? A ten bar. How many unit beats on a ten bar? One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten. So this is a ten bar and this is ten. What number comes after ten if I'm counting by tens? Twenty. Twenty. So let me take another ten bar. Ten, twenty. Now Nicholas would you like to come to the next one for me please? What number is the next one? Thirty, very good. Okay, do thirty for me please. Let's count it in friends. Ten, twenty, thirty. Very good. Ashton would you like to come to forty please? Ten, twenty, thirty, thirty, forty. Thank you. Thank you Michelle. So we got up to 100. So let's sing our nice song. I can count right. Let's count with me. Ten, twenty, thirty, forty, fifty, sixty, seventy, eighty. So now today we learn how to count by tens using our ten bar and how many units again and why you don't understand bar? Ten. And ten units is a ten bar. Thank you friends, you did great.


Surgeons will send you the patients for a marking and how exactly are you supposed to mark the vein is very very important because that carries a lot of implications as to the surgical success and many times it so happens that the surgeon has started the surgery or takes an incision and finds a thromboscephalic vein which just just cannot be used and it's a complete waste of all the effort. So a Doppler mapping done prior to this is really really helpful really useful so we'll go about certain protocols and certain principles which are used to mark the vein and literally guide the surgeon or in fact suggest the best possible site for construction of AV fistula. So what we use here are all the AIUM guidelines for the sizes of the vessels and so on with maybe a slight lower limit for the Indian population as we have smaller sizes of veins especially in the female population. We first always always start with the arterial system before we move on to the venous because if the feeder artery itself is no good there's you cannot just construct a fistula because the feeder artery has to have good flow. For the venous mapping of the terminology in the upper limb it's always good to use cranial and caudal instead of proximal or distal as it creates confusion instead of upstream downstream it's always better to use the word cranial and caudal. So we always begin with the scanning of the brachial artery for the anatomic variants. You can see the brachial artery very well over here and you can even see it dividing beautifully into the radial which is lateral and the ulnar which is radial. So what is preferred usually whenever you start the mapping it's always preferable to start it on the non-dominant arm for obvious reasons when the fistula is on the non-dominant arm it's more of more convenience to the patient it's more convenient for even the dialysis access as the right hand is not involved. So then you scan the radial artery properly from cranial to caudal and the best place is to do a radiocephalic distal radiocephalic fistula which is always better as you get a longer segment of the vein for future punctures. So that's your radial artery now you have to do certain checks on the artery before you say that yes this feeder artery is healthy enough to feed a fistula. I now do a good b-mode scanning of the artery measure the artery lumen diameter now here the artery is two point almost two point two point one or two millimeters which is sufficient usually the cutoffs given in many articles and literatures around one point six to one point seven millimeter and in the Indian population believe me you don't get arteries bigger than this. So looking at the radial artery then you after you have done a good b-mode evaluation of the radial artery you go ahead and do a proper Doppler insolation for the radial artery you need to keep the peripheral gains a little on the higher side so then you sample the radial artery and you see a signature which is a triphasic flow pattern. Now in this you need to do certain two three maneuvers for checking patency of the pharma arch and especially for pre-AVS mapping you also need to check the elasticity of the vessel. So how do you do this? You ask the patient to clench his fist tightly so he clenched his fist tightly once he's clenched it you take a you take a waveform which is going to be a very high resistance with obvious reasons and then once he's clenched it for few seconds you ask him to release it release so yes so you can now beautifully see the change over from the triphasic pattern of flow high resistance flow on your left to the high diastolic kind of pattern of flow to the right. Look at this slide in this you can see that physiological increment in blood flow after a period of ischemia is called as reactive hyperemia and this pre-operatively very well assesses the artery's ability to distend. So it's the elasticity property of the artery which is now checked here so you know your vessel is good enough so because when you're constructing a fistula you're diverting blood from the high resistance circulation to directly to a very low pressure circulation bypassing the capillary. So this change of hemodynamic should be acceptable to the artery as well as the vein. So this is a good test it's a good test called as reactive hyperemia which should appear in the report when you actually do the mapping. One more good test is the modified Allen's test in which you compress the vessel proximal transducer or rather cranially you compress the vessel and then you see a reversal of flow. So you start seeing the blue flow once I'm compressing the vessel cranially just cranial to my transducer the cranial head of the transducer so I see this reversal of flow so this reversal again tells me that my parma arch is patent. So after these two tests have been done and you know that you're not dealing with any distal vascular compromise it's also prudent to even sample the ulnar artery because once the radial is given away for the fistula you need to ulnar is also giving a good flow so yes your ulnar evaluation is also done which is normal here and then after this you move on to the venous evaluation. So according to the AIUM guidelines for venous evaluation it's good to actually make the patient sit for the peripheral veins, make the patient comfortable, give him a good pillow to rest his forearm. One important thing here is you need to tie a tourniquet proximally which I have already done and the tourniquet should be tight enough not too uncomfortable for the patient and now ask the patient to clench and release the fist two three times and then clench the fist properly. So this makes your peripheral veins distant it's also a good idea to even tap over the peripheral veins just as we do it before putting an intravenous cannula. So now I'm doing an evaluation of the catholic vein which is the best fistula for making a radiocatholic fistula. So now here you go it's easy to examine that there should be copious gel used very minimal compression so as to not compress the vein and get accurate readings of the vessel caliber. So here you can see the catholic vein so I measure the catholic vein distally in the forearm over here the diameter is around 1.6 then I move for further forward proximally into the mid and the proximal forearm I can take two three readings at this side one reading here proximally yes this reading is around 1.8 slightly better and the vessel becomes of a bigger caliber as we move cranially. So again in b mode b mode is best believe me you just don't need color evaluation over here because b mode gives a good picture about the compressibility which rules out thrombosis and in this b mode setting you can even beautifully see the wall thickening of the vein everything is very well visualized and you follow the vein proximally right till the subclavian catholic vein it usually may drain into the axillary vein or it may go proximally and drain into the subclavian vein when it drains into the subclavian vein it is known to pierce the clave pectoral fascia and then enter the subclavian venous circulation. I am tracing it cranially as much as I can sometimes you may not be able to see it draining into the subclavian so this is how we do a proper evaluation of the catholic vein as well as the distal arteries now before proceeding further and saying that yes a fistula can be made lastly you need to look at the deep veins which is a must you cannot complete your examination without evaluating the deep veins that is the subclavian and the internal juggler so quickly have a sweep over the neck to look at the ijv and then follow it up to look at the subclavian so it's important to see these veins as you need to rule out any deep venous or central venous stenosis or thrombosis because many times these patients who come to you are not healthy individuals but they all always have central venous lines HD catheters and their central veins may be already occluded or thrombosed so it's important to evaluate the subclavian and the internal juggler so that's the subclavian vein which we are sampling now yes you can see the pulsatility as well as the phasocity in the subclavian vein which is normally present this pulsatility is because of the transmitted cardiac pulsation and in case you have a central venous thrombosis or any of the inominate or the brachiocephalic veins are thrombosed this pulsatility is not transmitted to the subclavian and hence this is an indirect sign in that case you need to go ahead with investigations like maybe CT or MR to look at the central vein yes and marking of the vein is again important I cannot skip that so when you mark the vein see to it mark it distally and when you mark it it should be marked in a fashion so as to have only a small peripheral segment of the vein and one more thing is that if you can you can mark it with some permanent ink because they usually do the fissure like some one week or later or you're the best thing what I what I practice is I just keep a mehendi phone inside inside your ultrasound room and you can just put some mehendi over there the color stays longer and then the surgeon can do the fissure like even three to four days after you've done the venous evaluation there are certain size criteria which are important I've seen that in Indian population even if you have a vein of 2 or 2.2 millimeter you can give a green signal and you can say go ahead because you really don't get veins which are like 2.5 2.7 or 3 millimeter unless you have a well-built male sometimes it's patchy ethrosclerotic calcification so see to it that you don't mark an area which is calcified because anastomosis for the surgeon where the artery is calcified becomes difficult and again he may have to abandon the procedure especially in females it's a big problem they're frail they're weak with crf they're undergoing repeated hemodialysis and then they come with need of a fistula so even veins at smallest 2 millimeters I mark them and you can give them a chance once there's fairly good arterial size good healthy artery feeding the vein I think a fistula can be constructed


Maintaining a US Navy ship is a constant but necessary process and some of the maintenance can't be performed pierce side. Sometimes work needs to be done from top to bottom and what the Navy calls a dry dock period. The dry dock period really accomplishes two things. One, we can accomplish complex maintenance and upgrades that normally would not be possible while the ship is in the water. For example, you can't paint the rudders while they're underwater. Also, this allows the sailors to really open up their systems and get familiar with how they're put together and how they work. In order to go from dry dock to mission ready, these workers know teamwork is key. Everybody on this ship seems to understand why we need this. Mission ready is number one. We understand the Navy needs. Petty Officer Brian M. Brooks, Yacosca Naval Base, Japan.
