Allianz Football League
Division Four
Derry v Wexford, Bellaghy, 4.0
The divisional winners take on a disappointing Wexford in what should be the sign-off for the league's only 100 per cent record. Verdict: Derry
Leitrim v Waterford, Páirc Seán Mac Diarmada, 4.0
Leitrim's fine season has been recognised by promotion and Terry Hyland's Manager of the Month award but stealthily Waterford have climbed to third in the table. They can't go any farther but it's a decent showing. Verdict: Leitrim
[Matches at 2.0 unless stated]
Allianz Football League
Division One
Cavan v Dublin, Kingspan Breffni Park
Dublin get that disinterested feeling for the first league in seven years but after Jim Gavin's unusually public criticism, the players will be on notice for this.
Cavan's hopes of survival dangle by a gossamer thread and manager Mickey Graham has conceded that relegation is their likely fate.
Despite being competitive in a number of fixtures, he identified poor use of the ball both in shooting and distributing as the main problems for the team.
Dublin's own accuracy statistics were surprisingly poor against Tyrone and their inside-line defence was again exposed by their opponents' use of early ball. Plenty to work on for Gavin and despite being becalmed, a reaction can be expected. Verdict: Dublin
Mayo v Monaghan, MacHale Park
Over the past three years this has been a tight fixture with no more than a score in it although in 2015 Mayo administered a thrashing.
Both sides have it all to play for here – the locals chasing a place in the final and Monaghan wanting to dismiss the faint chances of relegation – after decent wins in the penultimate round but Mayo's Tralee take-down of previously 100 per cent Kerry has pride of place.
After two very disappointing results, James Horan will have been relieved with that win but conscious that it has to be followed up, as a place in the league final is on the cards. Matthew Ruane and Fionn McDonagh have been the most eye-catching of the newcomers. Whoever wins would need results elsewhere to click into place but the home side have the bit between their teeth. Verdict: Mayo
Roscommon v Kerry, Dr Hyde Park
Roscommon were outgunned by Galway last week and unfortunately for them, Kerry are next up hoping to atone for their first defeat of the campaign last week.
Peter Keane must be pleased with how it's gone with a fluid enough selection policy and anything – or potentially even nothing – out of this confirms their place in the final, for the third time in four years.
Roscommon need something to get out of the relegation clamp. Their top-performing forward in the absence of the Murtaghs has been Kerry émigré Conor Cox but their defence is too loose – second worst in the entire league – for comfort with the visitors getting ready to start David Clifford's season. Verdict: Kerry
Tyrone v Galway, Healy Park, [TG4 YouTube channel]
Results in this division have been a bit topsy-turvy so the fact that Tyrone are fresh from beating Dublin needn't overly-inhibit Galway, who have been effective – apart from in Croke Park – during the campaign.
They are one of two counties with their fate squarely in their own hands but Tyrone's improvement has been striking and the greater variety in their attack really impressive.
On one level it's a match made for Kevin Walsh's more cautious impulses but like Mickey Harte's team, Galway have plenty of attacking upside if not even more than Tyrone although they're not back to a full pick yet. The visitors' recent away form has been impressive and they have a shot here. Verdict: Galway
Division Two Armagh v Cork, Athletic Grounds
The crisis in Cork moves to a new level in this contest, which is almost certain to relegate them to Division Three for the first time in the modern era. Armagh's season will be static but that beats the plight of their opponents. Verdict: Armagh
Donegal v Kildare, Ballyshannon
The cards fell so that Cian O'Neill's team would have to travel to all three of their promotion rivals with so far nothing to show for it. This will be the decisive fixture, as Kildare must win and even then nothing is guaranteed – and neither is it for the Ulster champions, surprisingly erratic this campaign. But Declan Bonner's team are in a stronger position and should take the points. Verdict: Donegal
Meath v Fermanagh, Páirc Tailteann
Meath have had a good run and are virtually guaranteed promotion, regardless of how this first-versus-third clash goes. Fermanagh's limited but effective game plan is fine until they have to chase a match, a scenario Meath should be able to conjure. Verdict: Meath
Tipperary v Clare, Semple Stadium
This is one fixture that kind of suits Cork because if they win and end up in a head-to-head with Tipperary, they'll come out on top; otherwise they're goosed, as are the losers here. Tipp just about get the nod here, which relegates Clare. Verdict: Tipperary
Division Three
Down v Louth, Páirc Esler
A local, if cross-province, rivalry sees Down likely to finish a solid campaign with a bounce-back promotion whereas the visitors, who have had a decent season still have the chance of making headway, albeit a path complicated by the outstanding match with Westmeath. Unlikely to come to that. Verdict: Down
Laois v Carlow, O'Moore Park
Another high-profile meeting between neighbours, who contested last year's Division Four final. Both need something, Laois to advance their promotion hopes and Carlow to avoid probable relegation, which would be a poor reward for a competitive campaign. Verdict: Laois
Sligo v Offaly, Collooney
It's been a horror show for Sligo, who on their way down have provided the most hospitable defence in the league. Hard to see Offaly failing to take advantage. Verdict: Offaly
Westmeath v Longford, TEG Cusack Park
Another local feud, this time in the midlands, and a win for the home team will activate their outstanding fixture with Louth as a live issue. Longford have done well but there's more at stake for the home side. Verdict: Westmeath
Division Four
Limerick v Antrim, Kilmallock, 1.0
– Antrim's campaign has been undone by a succession of narrow defeats, a trend they can halt in this but to no great avail. Verdict: Antrim
Wicklow v London, Aughrim, 1.0
The losers here will almost certainly have the dubious distinction of propping up the league. Chances are that an already harrowing week for London won't get any better. Verdict: Wicklow

After a consultation last year, Cornwall Council have announced that this month would see the start of a new Article 4 direction. This scheme will come into force on 16th June 2017 and effect the area of Falmouth.
The full designation map can be seen here.
What is an Article 4 Direction?
Article 4 directions restrict permitted rights either in relation to a particular area or site, or a particular type of development anywhere in the local authority's area. When an article 4 direction is in effect, a planning application may be require for development that would have otherwise been permitted. Where an article 4 direction is in operation relating to Houses of Multiple Occupancy (HMOs) landlords must gain planning permission before converting what was formerly a Class 3 house (a family home) to a Class 4 home (a HMO). It is up to the local authority whether they implement an article 4 direction, and existing shared houses are not affected.
Article 4 Directions are used by local authorities to limit the number of HMOs in a geographical area. Falmouth has almost half of all Cornwall's registered Houses of Multiple Occupation (HMOs).
A House of Multiple Occupancy usually is any type of living accommodation, including a self-contained flat, and there is a sharing of a toilet, washing facilities or cooking facilities by three or more unrelated people in two or more separate households. In addition, there are specific provisions which mean that converted blocks/buildings, (e.g., converted blocks of self contained flats or mixed accommodation where there is a mixture of self-contained and non-self-contained units), can be a HMO. You do not, always need a sharing of washing facilities, kitchen facilities or toilet facilities for there to be a HMO. If there are at least three unrelated people involved, then the property could be a HMO.
Sitting alongside the Article 4 will be Falmouth's Neighbourhood Plan. The Neighbourhood Plan will set out where HMOs would and would not be permitted. Planning applications will be assessed against the policies set out in that plan. The Council claim that the intention isn't to prevent HMOs, as they are recognised as a vital element of Falmouth's housing options but that the Article 4 will be used to maintain a balanced and sustainable mix of housing options in particular locations by ensuring HMOs don't reach unsustainable levels in concentrated areas.
To learn more about Article 4 Directions and to check whether your local area has one, visit our Article 4 page here.
We at The RLA believes these measures are generally the wrong legislation to deal with social problems perceived to be related to HMOs. Article 4 directions will stop landlords renting houses to families because they risk losing the existing rights to rent it out as a shared house, not change existing uses of HMOs when the Article 4 direction becomes effective so the number of HMOs will not reduce, and limit affordable housing popular with younger people.

The Grand Court of the Cayman Islands and the High Court in England and Wales have recently considered two unusual applications for Beddoe relief: an application by a trustee for retrospective Beddoe relief after the conclusion of proceedings; and an application by a trustee for Beddoe relief in respect of bringing an appeal in the Supreme Court of England and Wales. These two cases are discussed below.
Beddoe Relief
An application for Beddoe relief (see Re Beddoe [1893] 1 Ch 547) enables a trustees to obtain directions from the court approving its participation in litigation in its capacity as trustee and ordering that the trustee will be indemnified in respect of the costs of the litigation from the trust funds.
The key question for the court in relation to Beddoe relief is whether or not it is in the interests of the beneficiaries as a whole for the proceedings to be commenced, defended or continued. The decision of the court is discretionary, and there are no limits on what the court may consider as relevant to its decision.
Help! I forgot to apply for Beddoe relief in advance – may I still have it?
In the matter of the Stingray Trust (Grand Court, Cayman Islands)
In January 2019, the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands heard an application for Beddoe relief by the trustee of the Stingray Trust. The Stingray Trust was settled on 5 July 2005 by two Italian citizens: "CDF" and his sister "IDF". The beneficiaries of the Stingray Trust were CDF, IDF and a charity ("MF").
CDF passed away and IDF began to suffer from ill health. A Public Guardian (the "Guardian") was appointed on behalf of IDF. Shortly after the Guardian's appointment, she began to ask questions of the trustee of the Stingray Trust and eventually issued proceedings (on behalf of IDF) against the trustee in Switzerland (the "Swiss Litigation"). In the Swiss Litigation, the Guardian alleged that the Stringray Trust was not valid and sought a) delivery up of the trust assets to IDF; and b) an order preventing the trustee from making any decisions in relation to the Stingray Trust. As part of the Swiss Litigation, the Guardian sought urgent injunctive relief against the trustee.
The trustee sought legal advice in Switzerland and proceeded to successfully defend the Swiss Litigation, which was dismissed both at first instance and on appeal. The trustee had not sought Beddoe relief prior to participating in the Swiss Litigation. This was so, it said, because of the urgency of the injunctive relief application. For this reason it sought retrospective Beddoe relief in respect of the Swiss Litigation.
However, before the application could be determined, the Guardian issued similar claims in the Court of Milan (the "Milan Litigation"). The trustee once again sought legal advice on how to defend the claims, but was able to first make an application for Beddoe relief in respect of the Milan Litigation.
The Decision of the Grand Court
The Grand Court heard both of the Beddoe relief applications together; the retrospective application in relation to the Swiss Litigation, and the application in relation to the Milan Litigation, and granted the relief sought in both instances.
1.The Retrospective Application relating to the Swiss Litigation
The Grant Court held that it was reasonable of the trustee to have decided to defend the Swiss Litigation on the basis that the claims went to the centre of the Stingray Trust's existence because the validity of the settlement was disputed. In addition, the Grand Court took into account the fact that the other beneficiary (MF) was not a party to the proceedings, and so there was a substantial risk that the trust assets would have been transferred to the Guardian had the trustee not decided to defend the claims. The Grand Court decided that in these circumstances it was proper for the trustee to have defended the claims and made an order that the trustee may be indemnified against the reasonable costs of defending the Swiss Litigation.
In relation to the timing of the application, the Grand Court considered that although it was unusual for a trustee to make an application for Beddoe relief after proceedings have concluded, the trustee had acted in a reasonable manner due to the urgency of the injunctive relief sought by the Guardian, and made a Beddoe relief order in favour of the trustee.
2. The Milan Litigation
In the Milan Litigation, the other beneficiary (MF) had been served with proceedings but had decided not to participate. The Grand Court held that again, there was a significant risk of the trust assets being transferred to the Guardian if the trustee did not defend the claims, and made an order for Beddoe relief.
However, the Grand Court decided to limit the relief to only cover permission to pursue, and claim costs for, a jurisdictional challenge in the Milan Court. The Grand Court directed that if the trustee's jurisdictional challenge should fail, it may make a further application for directions from the Grand Court.
What about appeals to the Supreme Court – can trustees have Beddoe relief for them?
Airways Pension Scheme Trustee Limited v (1) Mark Owen Fielder and (2) British Airways Plc [2019] EWHC 29 (Ch) (High Court of England and Wales)
The application for Beddoe relief was made by the trustee of the Airways Pension Scheme (the "Scheme") in relation to a pending appeal to the Supreme Court of England and Wales (the "Appeal") (to be heard in July 2019).
The original claim was brought in 2013 by British Airways Plc ("BA") against the trustees (the "Trustees") at the time of the Scheme, seeking to challenge two decisions made by the Trustees: a) a decision to exercise a unilateral power of amendment to provide trustees with the power to augment the members' benefits by award of discretionary increases (the "First Decision"); and b) a decision to use this power to make a discretionary increase of 0.2% (the "Second Decision") (together the "Decisions").
At first instance, Morgan J dismissed BA's challenges to the Decisions. On appeal, the Court of Appeal held that the First Decision was invalid on the basis that the amendment had been made for an improper purpose, and it therefore followed that the Second Decision was equally invalid. The Court of Appeal granted the trustee of the Scheme (the "Trustee") permission to appeal to the Supreme Court, and the Trustee subsequently filed a Notice of Appeal with the Supreme Court.
The Beddoe Proceedings
In relation to the first instance proceedings, the Trustee had made an application for Beddoe relief (the "First Beddoe Proceedings") which BA strongly objected to, despite the trust deed containing an indemnity for the Trustees which arguably included circumstances such as the first instance proceedings. The Court gave directions that the Trustee was entitled to Beddoe relief in relation to disclosure and inspection, and BA subsequently conceded liability under the indemnity in the trust deed. The First Beddoe Proceedings were therefore stayed and a consent order was made by the Court. After judgment was given in the first instance proceedings, this order was extended to cover the Trustee's response to BA's appeal to the Court of Appeal.
The Trustee then made a separate and new Beddoe application to the High Court seeking directions to approve pursuing an appeal to the Supreme Court and an indemnity in respect of costs of such appeal from the Scheme. The application was supported by Mr Fielder, a representative member of the Scheme, and opposed by BA. The Trustee and Mr Fielder both provided the High Court with counsel's opinion as to the merits of the Appeal prior to the application being heard.
The Decision of the High Court
Arnold J described this application as being made in "unprecedented" circumstances because Beddoe relief had not previously been awarded specifically for the purposes of a trustee pursuing an appeal to the Supreme Court. Despite the novelty of this case, Arnold J approved the Trustee pursuing the appeal and held that it was entitled to an indemnity in relation to its reasonable costs from the Scheme funds.
In coming to this conclusion, Arnold J analysed the case law, holding that there was no inflexible rule against awarding Beddoe relief in such circumstances (despite BA's assertions that this was the case). Arnold J held that the Trustee would be entitled to Beddoe relief if the Trustee was acting in the best interests of the trust as a whole, stating that "The advantage of the Beddoe jurisdiction is that it enables the trustee to obtain the court's assessment of whether an appeal would indeed be in the interests of the trust as a whole".
Arnold J placed weight on the following factors in determining that the Trustee would be acting in the interests of the Scheme as a whole:
- The Appeal had a good prospect of success, evidenced by the opinions from counsel and the fact that the Court of Appeal had given permission to appeal to the Supreme Court;
- The Appeal would benefit the vast majority of the members of the Scheme: 90% would benefit from the Second Decision and 97% would benefit if the power derived from the First Decision was exercised after 2018 (causing no cost to the other beneficiaries of the Scheme);
- The costs of the appeal would be a small fraction of the amount at issue as a result of the First and Second Decisions;
- The decision of the Court of Appeal had not clarified and had in fact cast doubt on the circumstances that the Trustees could properly use their power of amendment under the Scheme (which was used in relation to the First Decision and found by the Court of Appeal to have been used for an improper purpose) and it would be for the benefit of the Scheme for the Supreme Court to clarify this;
- The Trustee is the only party practically capable of bringing the appeal. The Trustee was the Defendant in the underlying proceedings and the "natural party" to have conduct of the appeal; and
- The order sought by the Trustee may result in significant costs to BA as it may be required to make contributions to the Scheme, but these costs are justified by the above reasons.
However, Arnold J was not willing to provide a limitless indemnity to the Trustee against costs of the appeal. This was due to the significant costs already incurred in relation to the appeal by all parties, and the large cost estimate for the appeal provided by the Trustee in the sum of £1.24m compared to the slightly lower estimate provided by BA in the sum of £1.03m. Consequently, Arnold J capped the costs that the Trustee is entitled to an indemnity from the Scheme to £1.03m.
For trustees, the Beddoe jurisdiction is an essential element of bringing, defending or continuing in proceedings as it provides not only financial protection for the trustee but also sanctions any decisions made by the trustee to continue acting in a litigation.
These two cases demonstrate the courts are willing to be flexible in granting Beddoe relief to trustees, as long as the trustees are found to be acting in the best interests of the trust as a whole when taking steps in a litigation. Although this is a positive finding, it should not be assumed that trustees will always be entitled to indemnity costs from the trust, but rather signifies the importance of taking comprehensive and specialised legal advice prior to trustees taking any steps in litigation.

Types of Mobile Phone Service Plans
Mobile service plans helped change people's view about mobile phones. Mobile phones started as a simple calling device detached to a cable phone line and became the most convenient and reliable tool of day-to-day communications.
Mobile phone service plans were conceptualized and created by the telecommunications companies to benefit the end users. These services enable the latter to own their desired mobile phones in the easiest terms possible. These also give them choices in paying phone bills in a simple and convenient manner. Furthermore, these plans are created to suit the various lifestyles of the users. Finally, these services plans help them maximize the endless capabilities of the mobile phone as powerful means of communication.
Types of Mobile Phone Service Plans
The first type of mobile phone service plan is based on the users' purchasing power and lifestyle. If you can afford the expensive and latest edition of mobile phones, you could acquire it in cash from the nearest cellular phone dealers. You could also visit the Internet and purchase a mobile phone of your choice just by logging on to the website and keying in your bank account number on the edit field provided. Then, you'll just have to wait for a couple of weeks, on the average, for the mobile unit to be delivered right on your doorstep.
On the other hand, for people who can't afford to buy mobile phones in cash, there are installment plans available. A number of wireless centers and mobile phone dealers offer deferred payments. There's a wide array of payment schemes being offered. Payment can be made in three months, six months, one year, or two years. These plans can be settled through cash or credit cards, making it easier for buyers to purchase the mobile phone of their choice.
Pre-paid Plans
The second type of mobile phone service plans is based on the means of usage. The first of this type is the prepaid plan. As the term «prepaid» suggests, users pay a certain amount first before they can start using the services of a telecommunications company. Prepaid loads are commonly being sold in the form of cards. There are instructions printed in the card to be followed to input load on your cellular phone.
Postpaid Plans
In a postpaid plan, one is able to avail of the services of a telecommunications company for a certain period of time, prior to being billed on a regular basis. Postpaid subscribers are usually billed every after thirty days. If a subscriber is unable to settle his bill, the service provider will disconnect his line.
TDMA, CDMA, and GSM
There are also mobile service plans that will help users maximize the power of the mobile phone as a means of connectivity. The TDMA or Time Division Multiple Access can accommodate 3 users in a single frequency. This plan is fitted to individuals who only want the call feature of their mobile phones. The CDMA or the Coded Division Multiple Access is appropriate for those who are always on the go, frequently check their emails, and surf the internet using their phones. The GSM or the Global Mobile Service matches the people of today who like both the call and web browsing capabilities also offered by TDMA and CDMA.
Things to Consider in Choosing a Service Plan
There are three basic things to consider in choosing the perfect service plan for you:
1. Location — Know the types of plans available in your area.
2. Budget — Opt for the plan that not only suits your lifestyle but also suits your budget.
3. Lifestyle — Consider your lifestyle and kind of work. It may not be necessary to pay for added services that won't be used that often.

Australia vs India: Hardik Pandya and KL Rahul to miss Sydney ODI
Both are likely to get suspended after the remarks on Karan Johar's show.
Updated - Jan 11, 2019 4:25 pm
8.1K Views
KL Rahul and Hardik Pandya have been involved in a mini-controversy over the last few days, especially after the episode of the talk-show Koffee With Karan got aired on television and the online platforms. During the show, Pandya made some sexist and misogynist remarks about women, which didn't go down well with the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) by any means.
Later the controversial episode was also needed to be removed from the online forum following outrage from the cricketing fraternity. In the meantime, it has been learned that both the cricketers have been ruled out of the first ODI against Australia, captained by Aaron Finch that is set to be played tomorrow at the iconic Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG) as per reports in Cricket Next.
What's next for Pandya and Rahul?
Following the remarks, the BCCI sent the duo a show-cause notice on Wednesday, January 9, seeking an explanation within 24 hours. Pandya also took to Twitter and apologised for the matter, but the BCCI didn't find it adequate enough for them to be forgiven. Later Vinod Rai, the chief of the Committee of Administrators (CoA), mentioned that Pandya and Rahul should be banned.
His colleague and former Indian women's cricketer Diana Edulji referred the matter to BCCI's legal cell, Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas, for advice. On Thursday, a series of emails floated around the BCCI officials as they found it difficult to come to an appropriate conclusion. Today morning, the cell replied to the CoA, mentioning that the two youngsters can be banned after the enquiry.
After the first ODI, India, led by Virat Kohli, would play a couple of more ODIs. Then they would play quite a few limited-overs matches against New Zealand and the Aussies at home. With the World Cup, scheduled to be played from May 30, Pandya and Rahul would hope for the issue to come to an end as the cricket world await the decision on the far-reaching issue.

POLICE constable numbers in Cambridgeshire are at a four-year high as 10 officers return to the county.
The return of the officers, who had been working in collaboration with units in Hertfordshire and Bedfordshire, will bring the number of officers to 1,043 – the highest level since 2009.
The force has 32 more constables this year than last and 55 more than in 2008, although the number is four fewer than the 2009 figure. However, the total number of officers in the force has fallen from 1,402 in 2011 to 1,381 in 2013.
Chief constable Simon Parr said that he was delighted that a small increase of 1.9 per cent in the force's part of the Council Tax precept, which was set out by the Police and Crime Commissioner Sir Graham Bright, allowed him to take the officers back.
Mr Parr said that the officers would be back working in Cambridgeshire, but the exact areas were yet to be decided.
At a briefing at the police headquarters in Hinchingbrooke on Thursday, the chief constable told The Hunts Post: "Whereas some forces have put a halt on recruitment we have been in a position where we have continued to recruit so we continue to have the same level of experience in our officers."
Mr Parr also welcomed changes to the definition of domestic violence to include 16 and 17-year-olds, a change that comes into force from Sunday (March 31).
"I think it's good news that they are now included." he said, "as it opens up a lot of support to victims that may have been assaulted in a domestic situation but have not had the same access to specialist support due to their age."
Mr Parr added that he and Sir Graham were working well together.
"Sir Graham has been out and about in the county talking to people and is feeding that information back to us," he said

All Along the Watchtower Lyrics
Artist: XTC
Album: White Music
"There must be some way out of here," said the joker to the thief,
"There's too much confusion, I can't get no relief.
Businessmen, they drink my wine, plowmen dig my earth,
None of them along the line know what any of it is worth."
"No reason to get excited," the thief, he kindly spoke,
"There are many here among us who feel that life is but a joke
But you and I, we've been through that, and this is not our fate,
So let us not talk falsely now, the hour is getting late."
All along the watchtower, princes kept the view
While all the women came and went, barefoot servants, too
Outside in the distance a wildcat did growl,
Two riders were approaching, the wind began to howl

by Adam Crosthwaite
A young student once asked his master, "How do you fight without attacking?" The master turned to his young pupil with a warm smile, "You watch". I have walked among ignorant minds thriving on darkness never seeking light or truth. I am merely 25 years of age. I have spent the last year regenerating my mind which I chose to rip apart with hate. I have only begun to live with a sober mind while helping to raise my six month old daughter. I find my self watching, caught between frustration and sadness as the world slips further into apathy. Why is it that I can see these things with what I consider to be my limited capacity while others who seem to be intelligent enough to see as well continue to be blind to this sickening process?
I watch people claiming to be spiritual individuals herded like cattle to the slaughter houses by fundamentalists who wage war in pursuit of power and influence. I have had the experience of watching governments take from the citizens of the nations they were "elected" by and turn around to offer empty apologies to victims who were not safe from dangers as they were lead to believe, because the budget was down sized in order to divert funds into pet projects to serve special interests; actions which cut short much needed infrastructure and left a door open for the people to receive a devastating blow. When the warning came years in advance that the levees would not handle the force of a level five hurricane they shrugged their shoulders as they walked to the bank. Money is more important than lives in the world of back door politics.
Unfortunately like any national emergency the worst of the fallout has only just begun. As the refugees are forced from the lives they built in Louisiana, they will require assistance with housing, food, healthcare, jobs and child care. No problem, the system that is in place along with a few adjustments here and there will make sure these people will not go without.
The problem exists on the unbalanced side of the equation. While the victims are slowly being taken care of, single mothers whom have been on waiting lists for assistance will be waiting almost twice as long now. Unfortunately for them they will lose time from work because childcare, which has already been paid for in most cases via taxes while they were able to work, is unavailable due to an overly stressed budget. These are single mothers working part time because the full time child care needed for even as short a time as six months is unavailable to them due to redirected funds that have gone toward pet projects some corporation negotiated over a game golf at the local country club.
Now the need is increased exponentially and the system that was originally failing is beginning to fall in on itself. This doesn't include the thousands of single mothers who are struggling through college with student loans in order to pull out of the hole they found themselves in. These are hard working intelligent people who raise families while striving to build a future that effects not just themselves but the world in which they seek to better. They know what is going on and have some very interesting ideas and plans for change. Sadly, fewer graduate each year as the snares of a corrupt system lead to debt and further need for a cleaner more reformed system; a need that will go unattended with the current sate of affairs.
As the struggle over power rages on in the uppermost levels of this so called society, the effects are felt rippling through the lower tiers until it reaches the streets. Be it with the hunger for survival or simply the need to rise by any means necessary, leading to power hungry personalities, the crime will sore and the corruption will spread further. History once again will repeat the same formula of corruption and those that look to the system for guidance will act as the system has taught them to: the rule of do as I say, not as I do will not apply to this generation. Look around you, it has already begun. It has been cycling down through layers of time for as long as there has been hunger amongst people.
More and more people every day claim the world is soon going to end. They are right in that statement, but only to the point of something will soon come to an end. As they rationalize the behaviors they take part in people fail to honor the truths they attempt to bury in the foul waste produced by their apathy. The end of silence among the suffering is coming. There are vast numbers of human beings whom have chosen not to voice out loud the details of the life they struggle through. The screaming will not be of those who have endured. The screaming will be of a new victim. For the children of the suffering will not forget and will never forgive the tears that mom shed when she could not feed her children.
How long will people do nothing more than watch the devastation and silently consent to extermination of lower classes in this country? I said extermination because why else would a government knowingly take such a risk with such a high number of lives? If the information is witheld or even denied as some people have been lead to believe then what else are we to do but expect the worst of our so called leaders? If press conferences are staged and people are arrested for speaking their minds we might as well raise a swastika above the White House and march in the streets with locked knees. How dare ANY government redirect funds away from programs that are implemented to protect the lives and welfare of all citizens in this Nation.
Which leads to more questions: What the hell would someone like this be hiding up their sleeve if they are counting on the fact that everyone else will simply smile and nod as the Big Business of Government takes and then lies about it? Are they putting something in the water supply? Is there more than just good old fashioned food supply demands behind genetically altered foods? Is there some kind of subliminal mind rape occurring in the mainstream media? What the hell is it that makes people think minds are easily controlled by one group in order to fulfill the needs of the elite? All that is required to detect a problem is to WATCH the pattern unfold through the fabric of the predigested reality that is being force fed into the minds of the general public.
IS this just some kind of half witted rambling from a 25 year old male who is angry with what he sees going on in the daily affairs of many?
Is this article a repeat of August? Perhaps it is. Maybe perhaps it is nothing more than a big neon sign screaming in the darkness to those who have yet to wake up. Who dares to question those that seek to hide facts and pocket funds? Or is that too harsh of a statement? Will I be the next to spend the night in jail for telling my government they are wrong? I cannot offer any quick fix solutions to this problem. All I can do is watch and question the actions I see before me. It is the sounding of the challenging voice that shreds the veils of deceit.
There was a time in my life when this saved my ass and perhaps it is a starting point for those who are lost in the cesspool of backdoor politics. I was living on the streets for a time when one night an old friend of mind suddenly appeared on a street corner in downtown Denver. She was distraught and I could tell she was in a bad spot so I went to her. As it turned out a group of people she ran into had stolen her pager and were planning on doing something with her. She was scared and desperate. With out hesitation I demanded they all cough up the pager and back down immediately. As they circled around me I realized they had me out numbered ten to one. No problem! I simply shouted at the top of my voice for all the world to hear, "Leave her alone NOW!" By the time the last syllables of my statement echoed down the alley every person within a block of our location was staring waiting for the first punch to be thrown. All I could do was grin like an idiot as they quietly returned the pager and disappeared down the street.
I actually believed she would learn from this situation leading to wiser choices and yet she is still cornering herself as she falls prey to manipulation from internal as well as external influences. I am astounded by the hardheaded ignorance of this person whom I considered a friend. I have stumbled over this riddle in my mind through the years whenever I think of that night on the street corner. As I watch this world with new eyes I stand at the bottom of the ladder looking up through the political food chain at the powers of the state and political street punks who are bullying children and families on the streets of the big bad city with the stench of their well dressed, one sided policies. It seems likely to me that the time of playing 'possum is over. I have seen the egos at play as they make meat puppets of men and women. It is time to expose those who trample the freedoms gifted to people by birth. Those who chose the path of manipulation work best in secret, they are powerless when exposed. It is the time for mouths to open and questions to be voiced. The time of silent suffering is over.
What would happen if people stood up that way with witnesses in front of the world and demanded the truth? You should have seen the looks on the faces of that group of assholes in the alley that night! I dream of the day our so called leaders encounter such a voice.
Not a day goes by that I don't wish there is more I can do. I cry every time I hold my daughter as I think of those mothers and fathers that lost that connection that one fateful day. What I have watched unfold in the course of the last months as I questioned what I was watching has lead to so many more questions. My words offer little if any encouragement to those who have suffered. Then again it would perhaps serve to encourage those in power to act openly and honestly as we move on to rebuild the worlds ripped apart due to the weakness of apathy. No government should ever settle for good enough when lives are at stake. I write in the hope of lending my voice to the light as it seeks to unveil truths that I have cloaked in the shadows of misperceptions I have entertained in my life.
For future reference: if you are truly sorry for not providing for those whom you are responsible to, and not just because you got caught off guard by a natural disaster which exposed your ugly truths, then get your hand out of the damn cookie jar. STOP TAKING WHAT IS NOT YOURS!
May the watchers of tomorrow use the truths that emerge from the questions of today.

If Jewish thought is open to conflicting interpretations, and as Reform Jews we accept that individuals are the ultimate arbiters of moral meaning of our tradition, how do we make sense of others who claim to know what a "Jewish" position is on any particular policy or issue is, be it gun control or foreign policy? But if we deny the existence of any explicitly "Jewish" position about a policy or politics more generally, how do we account for the very real and important phenomenon of an identifiable "prophetic-tradition" within Judaism that demands justice in our world? In this session, we will look at the theoretical issues behind these questions and ask, what exactly is Jewish Political Thought?

Moral injury is the experience of profound brokenness resulting from violation of one's core moral values. Soul repair is the process of healing those wounds. What do we do when we or others breach our moral codes? How do we heal—or help others heal – from the injuries these breaches inflict? As Covid-19 grips our nation and world, we will examine how our liturgy and texts speak specifically to Jewish clergy, expanding understanding of moral injury, and enhancing pastoral work with those suffering from its effects.
Presented in partnership with the Central Conference of American Rabbis.

Islamophobia is not new, though the term (coined, it seems, in 1910) became popular only in the 1990s. Fear of Islam (or of Muslims) entered into Western culture and worldview since the emergence of Islam in the 7th century, and in the Middle Ages Jews were considered allies of the reviled Muslims in much of Europe. This session will examine the origins and history of Islamophobia and consider why it has so often been associated with fear and hatred of Jews. Rabbi Reuven Firestone, Ph.D., serves as Regenstein Professor in Medieval Judaism and Islam at HUC-JIR's Jack H. Skirball Campus in Los Angeles.

Is it ethical to deny treatment to one patient to help another patient? Is it ethical to alter current CPR standards of care if doing so leads to worse outcomes? The novel corona virus (SARS-CoV-2 or COVID-19), has led to new ways of managing respiratory failure and hopefully creative, better methods for developing and manufacturing vaccines. The pandemic has also created novel ethical challenges that must be faced at the bedside by physicians, nurses, other health care professionals, patients, and families. Those same ethical challenges must also be grappled with by the polis, the body politic. To provide perspective on these ethical challenges, we will begin with a brief exploration of the pandemic in the United States. Doctor Fine and Rabbi Washofsky will then compare the Hippocratic and contemporary clinical ethics traditions with the Jewish legal tradition to suggest answers the questions above. The program will then open for dialogue with attendees in hopes of broadening community understanding of the ethical challenges, maintaining hope for the future, and promoting the social solidarity necessary to turn back the pandemic, saving as many lives as possible. Access ancillary materials here.

Judaism mandates communal reflection on the intimacy of mortality and loss four times a year: Yom Kippur, Sukkot, Pesach, and Shavuot. The powerful liturgy and music of Yizkor offers a cathartic response to the frailty of the human condition. Let us reconnect with the purpose, origins, and meaning of these prayers through music and study. Cantor Yvon Shore serves as Director of Liturgical Arts and Music at HUC-JIR/Cincinnati.

An honest conversation about creativity under COVID, the future of Jewish education, and how we will continue to be inspired and co-construct as Jewish artists, educators and dreamers amidst the chaos of 2020.
May 21, 2020
From ancient to present times, Jews have given their babies Hebrew and/or local names, demonstrating both their Jewish distinctiveness and their integration into local societies. This lecture offers a glimpse into this history, from the ancient Middle East to medieval Cairo, from Renaissance Rome to modern Poland. Then participants will learn how these trends continue among contemporary American Jews. When Jews today select names for their babies, they are sending a message about their specific type of Jewish American identity. The lecture ends with an (adorable) foray into American Jewish pets' names. When Jews give their dogs and cats names like Babka, Rashi, Ketzele, and Golda Meow, they highlight some aspects of Jewishness that are important to them.

A pandemic makes most people--even the young and healthy--keenly aware of the fragility and impermanence of human existence. A famous sage teaches that such awareness, even during normal times, rests at the foundation of an ethical life.

At most American Jewish summer camps, programs are conducted primarily in English, but the environment is infused with Hebrew signs, songs, and cheers. Hebrew-English sentences are common: "Madrichim [counselors], please bring your chanichim [campers] to the teatron [theater] immediately after the Birkat [Grace After Meals]." Why do some camps infuse Hebrew in these unusual ways? How are other languages used, including Russian, Yiddish, and Ladino? How do participants feel about this language mixing? This talk draws from Benor, Krasner, and Avni's forthcoming book, Hebrew Infusion: Language and Community at American Jewish Summer Camps, based on over 200 interviews and visits to 36 camps.
May 5, 2020
We honor the memory of Rabbi Aaron Panken, Ph.D. z"l, on his yahrzeit.

There is more to becoming Orthodox than observing religious laws. Newly Orthodox Jews, or ba'alei teshuva (lit. 'those who return'), encounter a very different culture, including new ways of talking, dressing, and acting. Focusing on the Yiddish and Hebrew words used by English-speaking Orthodox Jews, this lecture explores how "BTs" integrate into the community partly by taking on these new practices. Based on Dr. Benor's first book, this talk is appropriate for all audiences, regardless of prior exposure to Orthodox Judaism.

Does the Jewish People have a distinctive approach to political questions, a distinctive political philosophy? Many nations and peoples are thought to have one. American Political Thought, for example, might be characterized by the ideals set out in the Declaration of Independence and US Constitution, including a commitment to a balance of powers, the separation of church and state, and strong individual rights among other things. If the Jewish people are a distinctive people, then what is our political philosophy and where do we find its source? How does our tradition treat basic questions of legitimacy (the right to use power over others), justice, and right? And are these questions even intelligible given the diversity of Jewish thinking and ideas over the last 3000 years? In this talk, we introduce these issues and likely raise more questions than we answer!
Andrew Rehfeld, Ph.D., is the President and Professor of Political Thought at HUC-JIR.

With the destruction of the Jerusalem Temple, the central ritual of Passover - the offering of the paschal sacrifice - became impossible. Recognizing the centrality of the Passover story to the Jewish people, the early rabbis created a new, home-based ritual: the Passover Seder. This celebration shifted the observance of Passover from Temple to home, and in so doing, gave everyone in the community an expanded role in Passover.

We all know (don't we?) that "tzedaqah" means "charity" (among other things). But what we don't always think about is how some major figures in Jewish tradition see tzedaqah as a sort of religious force-field that ties together God and humans, heaven and earth, the past and the present, the living and the dead. Other equally major figures stress the purely human aspects of tzedaqah. Who has it right about who and what tzedaqah is for? Come explore with us.

Once expected to be brief, this life stage now can last upwards of 30 years. How do we help people prepare for healthy and not-so-healthy aging? What happens during the psychological process of retirement that impacts the ensuing years?

A global pandemic, economic disruption, and a sweeping movement for racial justice. The need for innovative, creative, and resilient Jewish leaders has never been more apparent. Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion must rise to the occasion, despite the fact that the COVID-19 pandemic has laid bare the vulnerability of our organizational structure and has stretched the limits of our students, faculty, and staff as our community continues to adapt to a rapidly changing landscape.
Despite this daunting forecast, opportunities abound for HUC to meet the challenges of this moment and renew our work to forge the next generation of "pursuers of justice" (Isaiah 51:1). With your support, HUC will continue to nurture and train the rabbis, cantors, Jewish educational and nonprofit professional leaders, and scholars who will build and foster communities of value, based on our tradition and with justice for all.

Testimonials & Reviews
"... I use your program for personal contacts - every year I mail out Christmas cards to friends and family, so I want to export only name, address, city, state, zip, and country fields, which I then merge with my envelope template in order to print envelopes. Because I can't specify fields to export, I now have to "tweak" the exported data, which requires a lot of extra work. Another Problem: In Contacts, Tools, Options, I set the Home Address as the default mailing address; but this only works for new contacts added; there's no way that I can see to apply that change to all existing contacts. ..."

"It does what it says. Pros: It is really nice to be able to place these notes on my desktop, like a "sticky note". I don't really use a calendar, foregetfull mostly. This product works like a charm. Cons: haven't found one yet. Summary: I think this is a wonderful idea. Surprised it hadn't come to my attention sooner."

Transgender identities in the past
- Article written by: Steven Dryden
Looking at the past through a contemporary lens can reveal evidence of lives very different from those we might expect to find. Minorities – smaller groups who sit outside the predominant majority within society – have often sought to find themselves in the past. In some instances these histories can be quite visible and relatively well documented in official records, although they usually relate to persecution, internment and oppression.
The exploration of the past for a minority history can be painstaking in terms of time, labour and emotional investment. However, these histories let us revisit a past that we think we know, ask new questions and consider things differently. This can have profound implications for the majority and the subscribed historical norms.
In January 2018 the British Library hosted a conversation between E-J Scott, curator of the Museum of Transology; Dr Jay Stewart, the chief executive of Gendered Intelligence (GI), and Annie Brown activist, artist and GI youth worker.
Using two articles found in the newspaper archives at the British Library, the conversation touched on the challenges of finding trans lives and experiences in archives, the idea of a 'trans-past' and the challenges faced by the community today.
An extraordinary investigation, 1833
On Monday 28 January 1833 the Sussex Advertiser featured an article about 24-year old actor Eliza Edwards who was found dead. Edwards is taken to St Guys Hospital for an autopsy, where it is discovery that they were 'a perfect man'.

How would Eliza have described their gender and sexuality in 1833? How and why would we go back and claim this person from history? What language would we use to do this?
An erased and sensationalised life, 1901
In 1901 the Tamworth Herald published an article concerning a case of fraud heard at Marylebone Magistrates Court against an individual identified as 60-year old Catherine Coome. Coome had been married several times to a number of women and had worked as a cook on a P&O liner for several years 'without [their] true sex being discovered'.
Throughout the report Coome is only referred to by a female identity. The male identity that they lived for 40 years is completely erased by the article.

Usage terms Public Domain
How have media representations of transgender and non- binary individuals changed in 117 years? What can this article teach us about the economy of gender both historically and today? How would this person have identified with contemporary language?
The role of museums and galleries
Museums, archives and galleries have a responsibility to ensure that all its patrons are represented and included in the histories that they create. Language is a problem, as is the ability to find consensus and work in the middle ground where narratives are open and have multiple points of access. In the last 50 years the vocabulary available to identify sexuality and gender has undergone a huge expansion. These challenges are not insurmountable, and the reward of enquiry can have a profound effect on our understanding of the past, how far we have come, and the battles left to fight.
What is the impact of museums and galleries neglecting to represent transgender lives?
Communities must be involved in the discovery, claiming and labelling of their past to help society better understand the boundaries of sexuality and gender in historical discourse.
The conversation
Conversations, by definition are an informal talk in which news and ideas are exchanged between those taking part. We are extremely fortunate that E-J, Annie and Dr Stewart have given us their time and permission to share this conversation. The thoughts and feelings in the short clips above are fragments of a larger conversation, just as the newspaper articles are fragments from a much larger historical narrative of the UK.
Transgender identities in the past - full conversation
The conversation uncut
Both newspaper articles provide a stepping stone to consider a Trans reading of artefacts from the past. Though a way forward is far from clear, a seed is planted for others to find, consider and explore.
These two articles represent only a fraction of materials that can be found in our collections. What discoveries will you make?

Testosterone boosters helps increase testosterone level within the blood. There are many causes why people take testosterone artificially.
Testosterone is a hormone accountable for masculine characteristics in males. Low testosterone level in the body brings about low and week muscles, reduced sexual drive and memory problems.
But the reason the testosterone boosters are gaining ground is very different. Nowadays taking testosterone supplements has much related to is muscle gaining.Athletes and those willing as a macho man count on all of the products which claim to raise t level. Boost in T level leads to increased vitality and supports active body metabolism. It may also help build muscle by supporting the formation of muscular tissues.
Testosterone boosting supplements are available in different varieties. Creatine is really a legal testosterone supplement but anabolic steroids commonly used by bodybuilders usually are not legal. Creatine is safer in comparison to anabolic steroids as its negative side effects are negligible. But steroid drugs may produce various health issues.Some herbs have been proved to get considerable effect in boosting the testosterone level. This is why products produced from the extract of these herbs are getting quite popular. One herbal testosterone supplement is Tribulus terrestris. It helps boost testosterone indirectly and thus is extremely preferred among athletes and sports persons. While there is no clinical proof that any herb can actually boost T- level.Almost all of such products likely to raise testosterone hormone within the blood boast of being legal with no negative effects. The products claim to have natural ingredients that are not harmful for health. Yohimbe can also be one particular product however its practical use has demonstrated some side effects one of the users.
Test Boosters That Actually Work
Therefore it is smart to be sensible before using testosterone boosting supplements. Careful collection of such item is necessary as there is no dearth of fake advertisements available in the market.Moreover it's not that this chemical testosterone enhancing substance can raise this hormone. There are several natural approaches to improve testosterone level to build muscle. Diet and regular exercise are the two natural ways to help testosterone hormone. Certain food items including green vegetables, fruits and nuts can raise T-level inside the blood. As well as it waking and jogging also help gain muscular strength without taking any supplement. Naturally sourced substances are can best utilized for muscle support with involving any health hazard. Thus being natural is always safe and the other way around.
To improve the testosterone level is the imagine millions of men around the globe. The main reason that the men desire to boost the testosterone level is to boost their love life. For a person like of athlete or even a bodybuilder enhancing the levels of testosterone means to build the bigger muscle and that too without the use of any type of anabolic steroids.
Additionally, research had revealed that women in addition have a strong desire to boost the testosterone level. Level of testosterone get lowers at the center age of women and men alike.
Problem of concern: Based on sciences, it was known that the amount of testosterone in men start decreasing at 2% every year after reaching age 30 up until the end with their life. And then in women poterd level starts diminishing from age 20 and gets half until the age reaches approximately 40. Mainly in female the testosterone levels start declining following the end of menopause cycle. Hence to be able to increase the standard of love life one must increase the testosterone level. Because of this , how to increase testosterone has turned into a major concern.

STRONGER with SELF Challenge: 28-Day Fitness Program
We signed up for the Stronger With SELF Challenge. It's a fun 28-day fitness program for all ages and fitness levels that includes a workout calendar and food recipes. The cool thing about these workouts is they're all bodyweight exercises, so you can do them anywhere. They can also easily be modified to increase or decrease level of difficulty. If you're looking to try something new because you're getting bored of your own workouts or you want an added challenge on top of what you are already doing, then join us and sign up for this challenge! (NOT SPONSORED lol) It started yesterday on April 30th, so it's not too late!
What do we hope to get out of this challenge?
Juliet: I want to challenge my body in the stamina department, so I'll be playing around with the amount of rest in between each exercise and circuits. I also want to figure out variations for each exercise so I can challenge my body even more.
Annie: This challenge showed up at exactly the right time. I was starting to feel a bit bored of my current workouts so this program is a great way to add something different to my fitness routine. I hope that by the end of these next four weeks, I feel stronger and reach my personal goal of losing 6 kg (12 lbs).
Will we incorporate other workouts with this challenge?
Juliet: I usually do a personal training session once a week with my friend Enya. My family is also coming to visit me, and we'll probably be doing some hiking and exercise as well. And if I find time to go to the gym, I'll just add this on top of whatever I do. This is actually good that there's a program because when I'm traveling, I don't have to think about what to do!
Annie: I'm planning on adding this as a finisher on top of my current workout routine, so it should be interesting to see how it all works out!
How much are we planning to stick to the entire plan?
Juliet: I'll switch around a few days due to personal training, but will try to stick to the workout plan otherwise. I will try out as many recipes, but honestly, I am pretty tired when I get home during the weekdays that I do something super simple like roast veggies, eggs, meat or fish… boom.
Annie: I will try to stick to the workout plan as much as possible, but I will probably switch a few days around if it clashes with my current workout schedule or depending on how I feel that day. As for the recipes, I want to try out as many recipes as I can on the list, but that will also depend on the ingredients that are available in Taiwan! I'll definitely look into using alternative ingredients where possible.
Some upcoming blog posts related to this challenge:
- Recipes we tried
- How we modified the workout plan to fit our own lifestyle
- How we modified the level of difficulties
We want you guys to do the challenge with us, so sign up – comment down below if you signed up for this challenge. Let's encourage each other these next 4 weeks!
