R/T 392 2dr Rear-wheel Drive Coupe
The previous day was miserable. An icy rain fell over Portland, Maine, coating the pavement and making even walking a chore. Driving a muscle car like the Dodge Challenger seems ill-advised. But this is exactly the weather Dodge hoped for, because we're here to test the new all-wheel-drive 2017 Challenger GT. The morning of our test drive dawns sunny and cold. The remnants of a late January nor'easter now past, we nonetheless steel ourselves for a day of unruly roads. Stepping into an inch of slush, we open the huge door, climb inside, and nestle into the heavily bolstered driver's seat. Immediately comfortable, we know the Challenger well. It's an old friend. Late in life, it's finally finding stability. Heading onto the Maine turnpike, we're struck by the Challenger's poise. All-wheel drive civilizes the coupe's brutish nature. We confidently navigate the first on-ramp – still wet from the storm – and merge onto the highway. A rear-wheel-drive car would come unsettled here, yet this Challenger's 19-inch wheels wrapped in all-season Michelin rubber are not disturbed. At the very least, the specter of tire spin would have made us overcautious. All-wheel drive doesn't morph the Challenger into a Subaru Outback, but it does make the Mopar a realistic year-round option for buyers north of the Mason-Dixon line. Dodge arrived at this conclusion after some introspection. The Challenger and its sibling the Charger sedan are usually cross-shopped with each other, and design is often the deciding factor. With Charger AWD sales remaining strong (in 17 Northern states at least 50 percent of Chargers are sold with the system), not offering an all-wheel Challenger leaves money on the table. Ben Lyon, Challenger brand manager, says the common refrain was, "I would have bought a Challenger, or I would have bought a two-door muscle coupe, if it was available with all-wheel drive." %Slideshow-476400% Naturally, the Dodges share an AWD system, which has an active transfer case and the ability to disengage the front axle, making the Challenger a rear-wheel-drive car in certain conditions to help save fuel. Ambient temperature, wheel slip, Sport mode, passing situations, and the driver's behavior can trigger the all-wheel capability. Power can also be distributed to the front wheels exclusively if circumstances dictate, with 38 percent of the engine's torque available to go forward. With still-slick roads and temperatures in the 30s, our Challenger GT remains all-wheel all the time. That's fine as we blithely blast through the small towns and past the snow-covered farmland of the Northeast. The cemeteries have headstones from the 19th century and before. We notice a monument celebrating locals who fought in the Revolutionary War. In New Hampshire, a town called Freedom greets us. This is Yankeedom, we muse, an appropriate setting for this car. Though built in Canada (a chunk of which is actually south of us at the moment), it's an undeniable symbol of American muscle. In the case of the GT, that muscle is a strong Pentastar V6 rated at 305 horsepower …

ONLY 13% of loan applications from small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Singapore are approved, according to figures released by SME consultancy Loyal Reliance, leaving a staggering 87% out in the cold.
Banks conduct stringent credit checks when processing loan applications, but many SMEs lack the necessary credit history to satisfy these requirements.
It is against this backdrop that Capital Match was established earlier this year. The peer-to-peer (P2P) lending platform, founded by ex-Rocket Internet executive Pawel Kuznicki and former investment banker Kevin Lim, is looking to play matchmaker to Singapore SMEs and individual investors.
The platform acts as a marketplace where SMEs can requests business loans, providing financial and credit information about themselves for lenders to preview.
Lenders can then decide to participate in a loan request with contributions from as low as S$1,000 (US$ 742).
"The entire SME loans market in Singapore alone is currently S$100-150 billion (US$5-112 billion) in outstanding loans," cofounder Kuznicki tells Digital News Asia (DNA) via email, adding that P2P lending is relatively young in South-East Asia, with only one other main player, Moolah Sense.
Singaporean SMEs face constant challenges, ranging from manpower to finance, with the Government pitching in to ease their way via policy changes and grants. It has even set up agencies such as SPRING Singapore to help such businesses grow.
But SMEs still have a tough time securing loans. Domestic and international banks in the city-state have been putting more resources towards catering to SMEs, but are still hesitant to issue loans or extend lines of credit.
"Based on past data, about more than half of them [SMEs] do not survive after five years. [The] failure rate is high," said Eric Ong, head of emerging business at OCBC.
"And therefore, a lot of banks may have reservations about lending to SMEs," he said in a recent report by Channel NewsAsia.
But there's also a distinctly low appetite for risk in the island-nation's banking industry.
That same Channel NewsAsia report also quoted Ang Yuit, vice president of membership and training at the Association of Small and Medium Enterprises, as saying that "The debt ratio and the bad debt ratio currently is still quite low in our market."
"So that means, if you look at it, risk can still be taken and more risk still can be taken to maybe help SMEs," he said.
Capital Match client Maxsolar (pic), which specialises in solar photovoltaic technology, can relate to this.
"Maxsolar produces enhanced solar panel technology that can increase energy yield by up to 20%," says Kuznicki.
"The company has its own in-house research and development (R&D) lab and has also been awarded a SPRING Singapore grant of S$500,000 that is disbursed on a quarterly basis," he adds. "It needed a loan to help it bridge the gap to the next grant disbursement."
Maxsolar's loan request at Capital Match was successfully completed, along with three other loan requests ranging from S$100,000 to S$200,000 which were finalised in the last two months, according to Kuznicki.
The successful commitment of a loan now ranges from a few days to 2-3 weeks on the Capital Match platform. Currently, SMEs can only raise between S$50,000 and S$250,000, with loan terms ranging from six to 12 months.
Surprisingly, loan requests have been coming not just from technology or new digital ventures.
"We see that regardless of the industry, there will always be companies that need working capital to grow their business," he says.
"Right now, we have received loan requests from companies in industries such as construction, logistics, technology, beauty services, recruitment, manufacturing, F&B (food and beverage), retail, and others," he adds.
For such a platform, trust, assurance and security are key concerns.
The due diligence process conjures images of people spending hours poring over financial reports and numbers. Capital Match is looking to buck that trend and fully automate the process, says Kuznicki (pic). "We are also looking towards greater automation in the near future."
Currently, it relies on people power to process each company. "We have a credit risk officer in the team and also subscribe to a third-party credit service to assess the credibility of our borrowers," he adds.
Capital Match still does the legwork the traditional way in ensuring due diligence is done.
"We look at multiple data sources (financial statements, bank statements, aging reports, etc.) and decide on the maximum loan amount and optimal interest to compensate for the risk involved," says Kuznicki.
And as with all financial platforms, security is paramount for its user base. Capital Match has a variety of measures to ensure data is secure, he claims.
The platform provides SSL (Secure Socket Layer) to encrypt the entire user session, and has set defined timeouts to terminate sessions after periods of inactivity.
Its backend system also encrypts user passwords. It goes even one further for user documents, with two-key encryption requiring both the users' hashed password and the platform's key for access.
Capital Match's journey to launch had its fair share of challenges, including its infrastructure. Everything from teams and legal documentation, to processes and technology, had to be built from the ground up.
"There are many moving parts that needed to be addressed immediately," says Kuznicki.
When asked about its revenue model, he notes that Capital Match acts as an agent between the borrower and the lender.
"Our revenue comes partly from a monthly processing fee to the borrower and partly from a commission on the collected interest rate," he says.
The commission fee (20% of total interest collected) from the lenders and the processing fee (0.2-0.25% per month) to the borrowers form the core of its revenue.
Capital Match's marketing efforts have been extensive in the lead-up to and following its April launch. "We have been using social media platforms, going for conferences, and holding seminars," Kuznicki.
On keeping on top of things, Kuznicki had this to say, "We keep ourselves motivated by staying focused on the end goal and working towards it by taking one step at a time."
Since its launch in April, Capital Match has grown its lender database to 550 lenders, with 120 of them actively investing in loans to SMEs. Six loans have been disbursed, totalling S$750,000, with another loan of S$200,000 to be disbursed sometime next week.
In the meantime, Capital Match plans to its business development and technology teams in the next six to 12 months, and aims to further automate its services to enable a smoother experience for both lenders and borrowers.
"We will also be working on developing more protective measures for lenders in terms of setting up a trust account and working out a potential insurance scheme for lenders to minimise the risk," says Kuznicki.

Ikea tip-over lawsuit attorney: Toddlers still in danger
After her toddler son died in an accident involving an Ikea dresser, Crystal Ellis became an advocate for child product safety.
Ellis and product safety attorney Dan Mann spoke about the lax environment around consumer protection at a Kids in Danger video conference on July 16.
"Parents believe that anything in the marketplace has been tested and vetted by the government," Ellis said. "It's sad that that's not true."
An Ikea spokesperson told Business Insider in a statement that the company commends Ellis and other advocates' efforts to "raise awareness about tip-over prevention."
"IKEA is committed to helping move the entire industry ahead when it comes to product safety," the spokesperson said in a statement sent to Business Insider.
On the morning of June 11, 2014, Crystal Ellis checked on her son Camden before dawn, finding him safe and asleep. Two days away from his third birthday, Camden had just spent his second night in his "big boy" bed.
Later that morning, Ellis set about feeding her newborn daughter while her husband Charles went upstairs to wake Camden for breakfast. But when Charles entered the toddler's room, he found the boy pinned under a three-drawer Ikea Malm dresser. Camden was rushed to a hospital, where he lingered on a ventilator for four days. Two days after his birthday, Camden's parents removed their son from life support.
Since losing Camden, Ellis has become an advocate for child product safety, founding the Parents Against Tip-Overs network and joining a lawsuit against Ikea. In conjunction with the Consumer Product Safety Commission, Ikea voluntarily recalled 17.3 million dressers in 2016. A company spokesperson said that 1.54 million chests of drawers "have been addressed through the recall." Wall attachment kits have been applied to 1,080,956 Malm drawers, while 448,082 have been refunded.
"Please keep in mind that many consumers may have chosen not to participate in the recall if their dressers were already attached to the wall in accordance with the assembly instructions or if they no longer had the product in their home," the spokesperson said.
Ellis described losing her son at a Kids in Danger virtual conversation on July 16 with KID Board President Shawn Kasserman and Dan Mann, an attorney who represented Ellis and other parents against Ikea. In 2016, Mann's law firm Feldman Shepherd secured a settlement of $50 million for three families who lost children in accidents involving Ikea dressers. As of 2020, the deaths of 10 children have been linked to Ikea dressers.
An Ikea spokesperson told Business Insider that the company wanted to "express our deepest condolences to the Ellis family and everyone who has been impacted by this tragedy."
"We respect the work that Mrs. Ellis and the safety advocates are doing to raise awareness about tip-over prevention," the spokesperson added. "As a leader in the industry, we share in the responsibility to educate consumers on the dangers of furniture tip-over, and we remain committed to creating safe homes for families."
But Ellis and Mann said that these tragic accidents go beyond issues with certain products or companies. They argue that two to three children will continue to die every month in preventable tip-over accidents due to the United States' lax stance on consumer protection. According to CPSC estimates, furniture tip-over accidents have resulted in the deaths of 459 children in the United States since 2000.
"Corporations cannot regulate themselves, it's just against what they are," Ellis said. "The only things that affect corporations are lawsuits, public shaming, and government regulations."
Deaths in 'baby-proofed homes'
Visiting the parents of children killed by Ikea furniture, Mann said that he encountered "baby-proofed homes" and parents shocked that popular nursery items could turn deadly. His law firm began investigating the issue of Ikea tip-overs after the death of two-year-old Curren Collas who died after a Malm dresser from Ikea fell over on him on the morning of February 25, 2014. His death was the first widely publicized case involving a toddler dying in a Malm tip-over incident.
The attorney found that Ikea dressers were seen as safe due to their lightweight design. Ellis' son was taller than the dresser that killed him. But Mann said that sense of safety was an illusion.
Mann said that, in the case of Ikea, the company "made a conscious decision to not test their dressers to the performance requirements" set by the industry at the time.
In response, the spokesperson for Ikea directed Business Insider to a recall page and wrote, "This recall reannouncement involves MALM and other IKEA chests and dressers that do not comply with the requirements of the U.S. voluntary industry standard."
According to Mann, Ikea eventually took the position that consumers should "anchor the dresser to the wall," although the company did not initially supply anchoring hardware. Ellis and Mann said that the testing around anchoring itself can be dicey. USA Today reported that toddler twins escaped being crushed by an anchored Malm dresser in June.
"The great tragedy here is that there are millions and millions of these units still out in the market and they need to get out of the marketplace," Mann said.
An Ikea spokesperson told Business Insider that the company has invested millions "in ongoing communication about both the recall and tip-over prevention through a number of different channels, including IKEA.com, paid advertising, social media channels, email and press outreach."
"The recall is still communicated on the homepage of our website, which had 327 million visits last year," an Ikea spokesperson told Business Insider in a statement. "To date, IKEA has sent over 16.7 million emails regarding the recall to its customers, including IKEA Family loyalty program members."
'I had no idea'
An Ikea spokesperson told Business Insider that the furniture giant "is committed to helping move the entire industry ahead when it comes to product safety."
Both Ellis and Mann said that the problem with child product safety goes far beyond the Swedish furniture retailer.
"This is not just an Ikea problem," Ellis said. "This is an industry-wide problem."
During the KID videoconference, both speakers described navigating a legal landscape in which corporations are left to regulate themselves. The Consumer Product Safety Commission — a federal agency dedicated to promoting the safety of consumer products — is currently unable to demand mandatory recalls or even publicize the dangers of specific products without a company's permission.
"The CPSC does a lot of good work but in some ways, they are a toothless tiger," Mann said.
He cited the case of the Fischer-Price Rock N' Play sleeper. According to an investigation from Consumer Reports, the CPSC was aware of around 73 child deaths linked to the product but was unable to act upon that information.
Even in cases where a voluntary recall happens, the lawyer said that companies rarely put the resources into educating consumers about a product recall as they do marketing the unsafe product in the first place.
"The last thing that I want to be doing is sitting in a parent's living room saying, 'This product has been recalled,'" Mann said. "And they saying, 'I had no idea.'"
'A record of killing children'
For her part, Ellis said that she believes that there are not only plenty of "products in American homes that could kill your child," but that many of them "have a record of killing children" that has never seen the light of day.
"There will likely be other toddlers that lose their lives," Mann said. "And, sitting here, we know that it's going to happen."
As an advocate for child product safety, Ellis said she supports the effort of US Rep. Bobby Rush of Illinois, whose "Safety Hazard and Recall Efficiency (SHARE) Information Act" would un-muzzle the CPSC from directly warning the public of the dangers of certain products.
She also called on companies to do more to avoid littering the market with deadly products.
"Care about your consumers. Pull it. Test it again," Ellis said. She added that if a product is made dangerous by consumer error — such as a toddler pulling at a drawer — manufacturers should account for that and "design a product that doesn't have to be anchored to the wall" to be safe.
Moreover, Ellis said that consumer culture must change.
Read Ikea's full statement here:
First, we want to once again express our deepest condolences to the Ellis family and everyone who has been impacted by this tragedy. We respect the work that Mrs. Ellis and the safety advocates are doing to raise awareness about tip-over prevention. Tip-over is a serious issue for the entire furniture industry, not just IKEA. According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), every 12 days someone dies when a television, a piece of furniture or an appliance falls on them, and 459 children have died from tip-over incidents since 2000 in the United States. As a leader in the industry, we share in the responsibility to educate consumers on the dangers of furniture tip-over, and we remain committed to creating safe homes for families.
IKEA has for decades provided tip-over restraints with all chests of drawers over a certain height. Warnings about the importance of using the restraints are included in the assembly instructions and accompanied by step by step instructions for their use. Where wall attachment is required, this is communicated on the price tag on display units, in IKEA store signage, and with online product information. IKEA has also been working to raise the awareness of the importance of securing furniture to the wall through our ongoing Secure It! Campaign.
Since announcing the 2016 chest of drawers recall in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), we've been investing millions of dollars in ongoing communication about both the recall and tip-over prevention through a number of different channels, including IKEA.com, paid advertising, social media channels, email and press outreach. The recall is still communicated on the homepage of our website, which had 327 million visits last year. To date, IKEA has sent over 16.7 million emails regarding the recall to its customers, including IKEA Family loyalty program members.
As a result, more than 1.54M chest of drawers have been addressed through the recall—1,080,956 through wall attachment kits and 448,082 through refunds. Please keep in mind that many consumers may have chosen not to participate in the recall if their dressers were already attached to the wall in accordance with the assembly instructions or if they no longer had the product in their home.
IKEA also continues to educate consumers on the dangers of furniture tip-overs and how to prevent them, including through the recent launch of the IKEA Safer Homes app, safety workshops in our stores in November, and mandatory Safer Homes training for all our co-workers. Additionally, we recently introduced a new process in our stores and online that reinforces the importance of wall attachment and encourages customers to enter their contact information prior to purchasing any chest of drawers. This will also allow us to more efficiently communicate important information regarding product updates and recalls to customers who have purchased the product.
IKEA is committed to helping move the entire industry ahead when it comes to product safety. In addition to the new app and ongoing communication efforts, the company has continued to invest in product development and testing, leading to innovative solutions to further enhance safe use.

'Gotham': Why Nygma and Cobblepot's Last Scene Together Will Be Emotional
Nicole Weaver
Gotham | FOX
Chances are most characters on Gotham this last season will have an emotional scene with someone else. That's because there have been some strong relationships that have been formed over time. One relationship that fans have been drawn to were between Oswald Cobblepot (Robin Lord Taylor) and Edward Nygma (Cory Michael Smith.) So will the characters get a proper ending?
The Cheat Sheet talked to the cast of Gotham at the Paley Center on Dec. 13, 2019. This is what Cory Michael Smith had to say about how the two characters leave off.
Cory Michael Smith said he will miss working with Robin Lord Taylor
The actor talked about what it feels like to leave Nygma and Cobblepot behind. "That's maybe the most bittersweet part of the show for me because I love working with Robin so much," the Nygma actor told The Cheat Sheet. "We have a really good time doing it and it's been consistently my favorite stuff on the show has been with him."
He then continued saying, "It's been the most difficult in a good way you know emotionally. Just the relationship is so kind of tragic at times and yet their alliance is really strong. So there's a lot of emotion built up in there."
He teased that one of their last scenes is very emotional
It sounds like the possible last scene between the two Gotham villains will carry the weight of their relationship. There also maybe more meanings behind it.
"I thought what was going to be the last scene was very, very emotional to do," said Smith "and it just happened that the things that we were saying to each other in character kind of like what we would say to each other in real life. Just about loving each other and accepting each other for who we are and why we work so well together. It was a nice tribute to say in character but also to Robin."
Fans don't just have their last words to look forward to. Both characters will also fully transform by the end into how the iconic Batman characters are known to be.
Robin Lord Taylor told The Cheat Sheet that Cobblepot will look more like the Penguin by the end of the season by getting a gut and more features.
"I get a fat suit," the actor told The Cheat Sheet. "I got the top hat, I got the tie, I got the monocle. Yeah, the umbrella the whole thing. That was so nice because you know we always felt very legitimate with inhabiting those characters but then at the same time getting the opportunity to physically embody the Penguin the way it was initially designed was just an amazing dream. I'm so grateful."
Nyma, on the other hand, will also get another look to become more like the Riddler. So their final transformations and their emotional scene are definitely things to look for to this final season.

Antim Box Office Day 11: Aayush Sharma & Salman Khan Starrer Enjoys A Fair 2nd Monday
The Mahesh Manjrekar directed film has managed a decent run so far and at least allowed the market to be busy

Antim Box Office Day 11: Aayush Sharma & Salman Khan Starrer Enjoys A Fair 2nd Monday – Deets Inside (Pic Credit: Antim Movie Still)
After collecting 1.25 crores on Friday, Antim – The Final Truth had a fair hold on Monday as 80 lakhs* came in. Considering the fact that the film is in the second week and is now collecting on the lower side, the drop needed to be less than 50% and this is what has happened. Of course had the number been over 1 crore, it would have made for an even more pleasant sight. However, the Mahesh Manjrekar directed film has managed a decent run so far and at least allowed the market to be busy.
The film now stands at 35.40 crores* and one just waits to see if Tuesday to Thursday remains on the same lines as Monday. Ideally, there shouldn't be any more drops from here because that would mean that the best case total for the Salman Khan and Aayush Sharma starrer would be 40 crores. For it to sneak into that 42-43 crores range, it needs to be ultra-stable from here on.
After the first week crossed 29 crores, it had seemed at one point in time that the action drama may as well aim for that 50 crores total. Had that been the case, it would have been quite good for Antim – The Final Truth. However, with the regional flavour of the film, it is doing well primarily in pockets and that restricted its final outcome to an extent.

Tom "Tomcat" Courtney hails from Waco, Texas where he was born January 23, 1929. His Dad played ragtime piano and his mother, who died when he was 12, sang in the church. He left home and started roaming after his mother passed. Went on down to Corpus Christi, Texas on a cotton truck. Tom recalled, "I got down there and a guy was puttin' on this floor show at a honky tonk there. His name was Bee Kelly and he gave me my first job as a tap dancer in the show. Headin' up things as lead dancer and guitar man was a guy named Oak Cliff T Bone (soon to be known as T Bone Walker). He taught me to dance and to play the guitar. In those days he was better known for his dancing than his blues picking."Tom stayed with Bee Kelly for some seven or eight months and then went back to Waco. He'd just gotten into Waco when the Dailey Brothers Circus came to town. They were short a dancer, so he left and stayed with them a few years (from 1942 to 1946). "We went all over the South, up into Ohio, out to New Mexico, up into Illinois. I still played the blues but mostly, in those years, I was known for my dancing. I met quite a few entertainers during that time and got a chance to sit in with some of the best, like Memphis Slim and Louis Jordan. In the circus they had this guy named Johnny Williams who had made some records and he'd play guitar and I'd dance. We'd both sing. It was in 1943 that I ran into B.B. King. The circus was playing in Memphis, and I heard someone say that B.B. was going to be playing that day in the park. Well, I thought for sure it was old Bee Kelly that I had worked for. When I got there it was B.B. King. He wasn't famous or nothing like now. He was playing an old box [acoustic] guitar and he had a drummer and a guy blowing harmonica. It was sort of a picnic, and he was the entertainment. He wasn't big and heavy set then either. He maybe weighed 160 pounds at the most. I heard he was playing on the radio but I didn't think that much of his music. There was a lot of what he was doing going around. It wasn't until a few years later when his songs started to be hits on the radio that I started to pay attention. I went to see him in concert and learned some of his tunes. He'd picked up a little weight by then."
Through most of the time when Tom wasn't on the road with the circus, he made his home in Lubbock, Texas. "I worked in the honkies and juke joints around there with T Bone and others. Usually someone would tell jokes, some women would strut their stuff, and I'd dance. I also began to mess with the guitar a little more. I'd mostly sing a few songs, with others like T Bone playing. I'd sing 'St Louis Blues' or 'All by Myself in the Morning' while dancing. I worked in season with the circus until the end of the war and then they wanted the minstrel part to tour overseas with the USO. I didn't want to go overseas, so I went back to Lubbock and started playing blues full time. That was in 1946.
"I'd play the honkies around Texas and I'd run into other guys like Lil Son Jackson and Lightnin' Hopkins doing the same as me. Sometimes a name artist like Muddy Waters would come through. Once, at a dance in the early '50s, I got up and sang a couple of numbers with Muddy's band. Man, was I ever big, telling all the women about my friend Muddy Waters.
"I started playing really professional in 1950. The first songs I really wanted to play were 'You Gonna Miss Me When I'm Gone' and 'Goin' Down Slow.' Later, I saw Little Walter play and I started using that minstrel beat of his. I played with T Bone Walker's band all around Texas in 1951. We'd play and then we'd dance. I told him about how I'd steal all his steps when I was little. He'd laugh and say, 'I knew you was doin' it… look like you stole a few guitar licks too.'
"I was about 21 or 22 then and we played at a place in Lubbock called the Greasy Spoon and then we played at a place called the Comeman Club. T Bone would play the main show and I'd take over the band after hours. T Bone would let me sing a song or two on the early show and pick a little guitar. I'd always do 'St. Louis Blues,' a song I'd learned from a guy I picked with up in Illinois while I was still with the circus. He was a piano player named 'Dr Clayton' (who recorded for Bluebird and Victor).
"It was in 1952 that I met Smokey Hogg. I had married his neice in 1951 and had quit playing for her. She didn't tell me Smokey Hogg was her uncle . We went to visit her daddy and I heard this guy in there playing and singing. I'd heard him before. I'd just bought one of his records. He was my wife's mother's brother. I worked with Smokey and with his brother John quite a lot after that. They didn't get along too well but I got on well with both of them. Smokey was a heavy drinker and always had trouble keeping a band together even in his peak days when his records like 'Good Morning Little School Girl' were selling well. I didn't stay with his niece too long, but remained friends with Smokey and played with him regular when he was in Texas. He died in Greenville, Texas in 1959 right around Christmas time, and he's buried there. I came over from Lubbock to attend the funeral. He was an easy-going guy but he just drank too much and then he'd get sloppy and not play well. He went on the wagon once in 1957 but then he went out to L.A. and took up his old ways again. They brought him home to Greenville to die.
"John Hogg was always the better musician, you know, but he never got the recognition Smokey did because he didn't like to sing so much. He'd let the other guys sing for him. He's a good singer but he'd rather play. He always said that he and Smokey 'never did play together, only with each other some.' They used to tell folks they were brothers but actually they were first cousins.
"I first came out to the West Coast in 1961 and played some with John and others. I had moved from Lubbock in 1960 to Denver to play at a club called the American Club with Little Johnny Taylor. He's the one that had that record 'Part Time Love.' I went on the road with him to L.A. and that's how I got out West. After that I went to Africa and stayed for a year and then came back to L.A., but I went right back to Texas in 1963 to play with a guy named Saxophone Slim who had broke off from Lightnin' Slim's band to form his own group. We went down and played around Baton Rouge, Louisiana for about six months. I quit him to come out to L.A. with the Freddie King Band (I played rhythm guitar) for a gig at the California Club. His band broke up after that and I stayed in L.A. playing with Pee Wee Crayton and then with Lowell Fulson awhile. Finally, I went with John Hogg's band and stayed with them with only a couple of breaks until about 1970."
Tom met up with Henry Ford Thompson and Louis Major and then moved down to San Diego in 1971. When I met them, Tom had only been in town about two weeks when he and Ford came into a Friday night concert at my shop [Folk Arts Rare Records] and played. It had been a long road for Tom with a new chapter here in San Diego about to begin. All these years later he's still with us [note: Tomcat died of the Corona virus in 2021] and has become San Diego's very own blues treasure

As I pursue my Ph.D., I am very interested in contributing to the body of knowledge for both the sport and motorsport industry, in the form of textbooks, chapters of books (sports management) and peer-reviewed journal articles. I am goal-setting to become a research scholar and business consultant, hired by individuals, organizations, and universities to teach best practices, quantify economic impact, evaluate business and marketing initiatives and investigate problems to ultimately offer innovative and meaningful solutions. I am currently exploring ideas and theories relating to the use of managerial skills and leadership concepts in sport and motorsport organizations, with the intent to understand the components of peak performance and determine how people in top sport and motorsport organizations communicate and interact with each other. Ideas such as leadership, team culture, motivation, organizational change, and managerial skills all are resonating with me and I have many ideas on ways in which a deeper understanding of these elements can enable me to offer assistance to organizations and teams to improve performance.

A journey of a 1000 miles begins with a single step
The Journey to a True Democracy
I would never have guessed, in June of 2018, that what started as a conversation with a friend over a pint in a pub, would one day become an online platform that could realise the power of what we talked about then.
Frustrated with the way in which our elected representatives dithered and fumbled to deliver on the most significant democratic decision of our country (Brexit), we wondered why we needed to have a small group of people represent the voice of the majority of the citizens of our country at all.
To us, it was not a difficult process to follow. We held a referendum, the people voted and all that was left, was for Parliament to follow a logical and well-defined process. If anyone bothered to read the Lisbon Treaty and in particular Article 50 of that treaty, they should have no question as to the legitimacy of triggering Article 50 and what happens from that point to exiting the EU.
Yet, all we witnessed from Parliament and parties hell-bent on usurping the democratic will of the people, was misinterpretation, spin and propaganda - on both sides of the debate. And Parliament allowed itself to be steered away from the job in hand to trigger Article 50 in a reasonable space of time and then to follow the unambiguous and sequential steps to leave the EU - as voted for by the majority of the UK.
And despite the protests of misinformation (from the Leave and Remain camps), the spin and propaganda, nobody seemed to have any faith that the electorate were quite capable of informing themselves of all sides of the debate to make a decision based on their own common sense. All we heard was that "the people had been lied to" or "project fear seeks to scare the people into reversing Brexit" as if the electorate were naïve children who could only make a decision based on what the spin doctors and propagandists told them to think.
We didn't believe that. We would not believe that the people are so gullible and lacking in intelligence, that the majority could be duped into voting one way or another.
That led us to ask the important question: If we trusted that the majority of the British public were intelligent enough to listen to all sides of a debate, do their own research and read between the lines (as we did) and make an intelligent and informed decision, why do they need MPs to represent their voices in Parliament at all? In fact, if there was a way for the British public to vote for every important decision for this country, we would not need MPs to represent us - would we?
The outcome of that conversation was that we truly felt that our country does not really need to be a representative democracy, where an establishment of career politicians make decisions for us. Especially when it was apparent that they spent much of their time dithering and delaying important decisions that should represent the will of the people.
By Spring of 2019, I would find some important numbers that led me to take the first steps towards Accountable UK.
By 2019, 93% of British households had broadband internet access (according to Statista).
4 out of 5 people (80%) use some form of online banking.
What that told me was that the majority of UK citizens have internet access and trust online security enough to manage their money. So why can they not securely vote for every important decision that is made for the UK, rather than leave that important right to MPs in Parliament who appeared to not have a great track record of administering that mandate from the public?
Therein was the spark that lit the fire for Accountable UK.
And it has been a long journey to get to this point. We wanted to launch before the UK left the EU. During the whole Brexit period, so many groups were telling us what was good for the British public. Political parties, activists, protestors, the Governor of the Bank of England...even Barack Obama. Yet all of them were basing their opinions on the assumption that they spoke for the majority. And all of them, based that opinion on anecdotal data or polls whose sample sizes were such a small proportion of the British people, that they could not be significantly representative of the country - even statistically. It would have been great to be able to have launched Accountable UK before the UK left the EU - just so we could see (with enough participation) what the majority of the UK people really thought and wanted. Or at least a much larger sample of the people.
But, the development of the platform was taking longer than expected and we had full time jobs to juggle whilst building it. And we missed the deadline that we were trying to hit.
Before we knew it, Article 50 had been triggered and then the delays to the deadline by which the UK should have left the EU (according to Article 50) were delayed again and again - even though it was quite clear in Article 50, that if a Withdrawal Agreement is not reached by 29 March 2019, the UK should leave the EU on WTO trade terms. Yet, once again, we saw no end of back-tracking, dithering and misinterpretation of a clear directive in Article 50. Once again, both sides of the Leave/Remain divide began to use spin and propaganda to delay when the UK would leave the EU, some even going so far as to lobby for the revocation of the democratically elected decision to leave the EU.
And once again, we tried as hard as we could to launch Accountable UK - but more delays in development resulted in not being able to do so.
Of course, the UK left the EU and we found ourselves in the midst of a pandemic, which delayed us further along with most things in the country.
But, despite missing key events in the country, we found that there was never a time when Accountable UK and the power of the voice of the people was not needed. Today, we may have dispensed with Brexit, but there are lots of issues in our country where the establishment think they can push the people of this country along a path to their particular ideology. And again, based on spurious data, misinformation, spin and propaganda. We live in a country where the mainstream media are as biased as they have ever been. In a country where the media are supposed to inform us in an unbiased way and report on every side of an issue. Yet, they are part of the establishment and use spin, propaganda and misinformation or disinformation to further the agenda of whichever interest group they subscribe to.
So Accountable UK is as needed today as it ever has been.
What you will find on this platform, is a place where you can vote independently of your MP, for the same things your MPs vote for in Parliament. You can also vote on important topics that may not be debated in Parliament. And the most important thing, is that you can see how MPs vote for those Bills on your behalf in Parliament and compare that to how their constituents vote.
The strength of Accountable is in its Members. The more people that join this platform, the more significant their collective voice.
Imagine if more than 50% of a constituency's electorate were members of Accountable UK and their MP voted differently for a Bill in Parliament to how the majority of their constituents voted on Accountable UK. That would be a problem, would it not? That would make that MP accountable to the people who elected them, would it not?
We believe that more and more, MPs are out of touch with the people who elected them. They do not always represent the wishes of the people they serve. But that is not as visible as it should be and much is lost in the noise of how things are interpreted.
This is a platform for the people. We want to people to see if their elected act in the way the majority of their constituents want them to.
We have worked hard to keep the cost of this platform so low, that everyone can join the collective voice.
This is our purpose. This is your platform, Join us and let's make the establishment truly Accountable in this, our UK.

I'll start by saying, I'm not whining, yet really need to voice my concern.
I've been working with physical limitation since 1991, now it's reached the piont where I can't continue to do the type of work I've done since leaving school.
Being around the corner from 44, with a 9th grade education, a GED and 27 years experiance in heavy and rough construction, retraining doesn't offer much hope. Torn meniscus cartiilage / Anterior Cruciate Ligament, bilateral herniations between T4 & T5 and T5 & S1 with bilateral sciatica. On the best of days the I can brush my teeth and shave, before the pain becomes unbearable.
Oh man, dude, that *sounds* painful...I can only imagine.
if there was any money in crochet / macrame you could color me there.
Doesn't your union provide some kind of retraining for people who become more-or-less disabled on the job? Alternatively, you could probably study for your contracter's license and go into business for yourself, and have all the OTHER guys do the grunt work. All your years of building sets has certainly prepared you for building real buildings, I'd wager.
I share your pain :'( Something to do with martial arts, a demo gone wrong and calcified bone chips in the lumbar area. I found out that accupuncture was a hell of a lot more efficient than chiropractic treatments.
I'm with David on the contractor's license.
Anthony, just to let you know your pain hurts me too. I wish I had something more useful to tell you. Is getting a contractor's license viable? This setback might open a window to a field involving study.
That's rough, hope things work out. My older brother just had a couple ruptured disks operated on. He was out of action for 4 months but is a whole lot better now with no pain at all. He even wished he had it done sooner now it is over. Luck with it, hope it won't come to surgery.

I am from the Diocese of Kansas and I live on the Kansas side of the Kansas City metropolitan area. I have attended St. Michael and All Angels Church for almost 40 years. I've been involved in a variety of ministries, but my experience with Kansas to Kenya has been the most transformative. Kansas to Kenya is a mission initiative which provides community and medical support to communities in and around the Kenyan Diocese of Nakuru, based on the UN's Sustainable Development Goals. I have helped to support the Agatha Amani House, a shelter for victims of domestic violence, and coordinate Women's Seminars for the past 4 years. I will be going to Kenya for the 5th time this year, which is the 10th anniversary of K2K.
Through my work in Kenya, I have become acutely aware of the connection between the status of women and the success of a country. Women who are denied education, health care, safety, and dignity are unable to significantly improve their economic condition. Women who are empowered members of their communities are able to effectively work for sustainable, long-term change. The lessons I have learned in Kenya, are applicable in the United States as well, as we continue to work for equal education, equity of pay, and domestic safety here at home.
It is the interconnectedness of women's issues globally that makes me so excited and thankful to have the opportunity to meet with women from around the country and the world, to debate, pray, work, and craft language that will impact the future of women around the world. Although we are just getting to know each other, I can tell that the chance to work with the Episcopal Delegation to the UNCSW will be life changing for me, and will enhance my own ministry. I am hopeful that I will gain new resources to help my work with the women of Kenya and to assist with new mission opportunities working with women in and around Kansas City who are victims of human trafficking. The work to improve the status of women is immense and it takes each of us, one day at a time, one mission at a time, to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals.
Thank you for whatever support you are able to provide. Please feel free to share my story however you feel is appropriate. Don't hesitate to reach out to me if you have any questions.
