The danger of speaking Spanish in the United States
The use of this language, spoken by 40 million people, continues to grow. It is doubtful that President Trump will manage to reverse this trend
Eduardo Lago
New York - 03 Feb 2017 - 12:47 UTC
In the United States, 57 million people consider themselves Latino and 40 million speak Spanish, out of a total population of around 308 million. These facts highlight a historical constant: the ability of the Spanish language to resist an institutional environment that has been, and is currently acting, hostile. Laws attempting to eradicate bilingual education have systematically failed, because the use of a language depends on the people who speak it, and not on legislation.

Data support faith in the vitality of Spanish in the United States, from its use in homes and communities, to its presence in the media, especially on television. Spanish also has considerable weight in American academia. Despite the fact that US President Donald Trump added an official Twitter account in Spanish, what does the news about the deletion of Spanish from the White House's website mean?
To deny the importance of Spanish in the United States is as insane as denying climate change
In a video from 1960, which today seems rather poignant, Jacqueline Kennedy speaks Spanish, asking Latinos to vote for her husband John F. Kennedy, who at the time was a senator. This was not an isolated case. Throughout the more than half-a-century since then, the Spanish language has been used with certain regularity in the presidential milieu, by both Republicans and Democrats. Everyone remembers George W. Bush's attempt to engage with Spanish. Meanwhile, his successor, Barack Obama, thought it important that the official White House webpage do justice to the bilingual reality of the United States, integrating Spanish into its design. Spanish is not the only thing that has disappeared from the White House's webpage: also deleted are allusions to Cuba, climate change and the Iran nuclear deal, among other things.
To deny the importance of Spanish in the United States is as insane as denying climate change – something that, incidentally, the new administration is doing with complete impunity. The historical, social, political, economic and cultural weight of Spanish in the United States is an unquestionable fact; the problem is that facts do not matter when it comes to a political agenda where reality is denied on a systematic basis.
In terms of the demographic force of the Latino community in the United States, Colombian novelist Gabriel García Márquez solemnly summed it up when he said: "It was not us who came to the United States. It was the United States who came to us." And how did they do it? Through a simple operation of buying and selling. In 1848, after a military conflict, Mexico ceded half its territory to its northern neighbor for $15 million under the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo. Overnight, a huge part of the Spanish-speaking population became part of the northern territory. A survey of place names serves as a silent witness to the trampling of this territory by the United States. Names such as Los Angeles, San Francisco, Nevada, Colorado, among many others, each have their own history. If geography is unequivocal, the same cannot be said about history, which Anglo-Americans have always told badly, prioritizing the vision of an expansive horizontal movement from coast to coast; heading west.
Despite what is usually argued through imprecise statistics, the use of Spanish does not decrease from one generation to another in a lineal way
The Hispanic vision, centered on an examination of a vertical South-North axis, has been emphasized by researchers such as Professor Fernández Armesto in Our America (the title, as is well known, comes from Cuban national hero José Martí), but it is systematically ignored.
More data. California, which sometimes flirts with the dream of independence, is, besides being the richest state in the country, a pre-eminently Spanish-speaking territory. In Miami one can get by without speaking any English at all. Another fact worth underlining is that, despite what is usually argued through imprecise statistics, the use of Spanish does not decrease from one generation to another in a lineal way, given that the constant flow of new immigrants counteracts any such fall. Other languages such as Yiddish, over extended periods of time in places like New York, have disappeared without a trace: Spanish, in contrast, has not stopped growing, a trend that the new administration seems determined to halt. The ever-changing history of relations between Spanish-speakers in the US and their maternal language switched from being defined by an inferiority complex to a phase of assertion and pride. But now there is an additional element: fear. Speaking Spanish in public could be dangerous in the face of the threat of a massive wave of deportations.

It's not often that venerable guitarist, composer, and bandleader Steve Kimock appeases his hugely loyal fanbase by giving into song requests. Not that Steve overlooks the folks who've gone to every damn show since the days of his heralded archetypal band Zero, but for the veteran artist, music is ever-evolving and never about looking backward or forwards.
Lukas Nelson, whose career profile continues to broaden and flourish, most recently for his work in the remake of "A Star is Born," doubled down on his commitment to the Music Heals International (MHI) organization. On November 19, he again headlined a dynamic, diverse, and musically proficient lineup of music in support of MHI's Haitian music-in-schools program at the intimate Sweetwater Music Hall in Mill Valley, Calif.
On Sept. 23, to the delight of Bay Area live music lovers, Sweetwater Music Hall hosted the inaugural Sweetwater in the Sun festival in Marin County, California. Concertgoers nationwide are familiar with the legendary Sweetwater, an intimate venue that has hosted great acts over the decades ranging from Elvis Costello to New Riders of the Purple Sage. While the storied venue has a legacy for its high-profile acts in cozy confines, nothing could have prepared fans for the announcement of Sweetwater in the Sun.
Marin's favorite son (and biggest rock star) Bob Weir and the North Bay's iconic venue launching a whole new offering. They're calling it Sweetwater in the Sun and it's going down Sun Sept 23 at Stafford Lake Park in Novato. This is a family friendly event, and in addition to our main stage (lineup below) we have a kids stage with 2 kids bands, face painting, magic, bubbles, arts & crafts and more. Our legendary chef Gordon Drysdale is also doing all the food, raising the bar on what folks can expect from "festival food."
Join us at beautiful Stafford Lake Park in Novato for Sweetwater in the Sun, the first Sweetwater Music Hall Festival, a full day of live music, food & drink, and family fun.
plus face painting, magic, and arts & crafts!
There's no better way to celebrate the release of recorded music than to go play it live.
With Wavy Gravy, Bob Weir, and Steve Kimock as its star personalities on May 6, and Wavy's Camp Winnarainbow the recipient of the evening's proceeds, the intimate event at the Sweetwater Music Hall in Mill Valley, California, exuded a friends and family vibe. And there was cake!
It's an understatement to say improvisational guitar icon Steve Kimock has been keeping busy. He's approaching an East Coast tour with his newest band KIMOCK featuring his son John Morgan Kimock on drums and frequent collaborator Leslie Mendelson on guitar and vocals. He just wrapped up a successful yet unprecedented mini-tour of Japan.
The decline of 1970's Grateful Dead piano player Keith Godchaux was sad but not entirely unexpected. The hardships of the never-ending grueling tour and travel schedule (that had always been for The Dead) had taken its toll on Keith and his wife Donna Jean Godchaux, a talented Muscle Sholes-alum vocalist. It was Donna who introduced Keith to Jerry Garcia in 1971 after a Dead show they had attended.

10 Years And Counting: UTC Aerospace Systems MRO Facility Celebrates A Decade Of Growth In Singapore
posted on 7th February 2018 by Jordan Newton
UTC Aerospace Systems, a unit of United Technologies Corp. (NYSE: UTX), recently celebrated the 10-year anniversary of its Singapore Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) facility. After starting with a team of 30 technicians in 2007, the facility has expanded to include nearly 200 employees and relocated to a new 123,000-square foot site. Over the same period, the business has delivered approximately 200,000 products to 280 customers, has increased its portfolio of parts repaired by 26 percent, and has increased its on-time delivery ratings by almost 10 percent. The Singapore facility serves as the center for Asia-Pacific operations, with other sites located in China, Australia and Malaysia for a total of 1 million square feet of MRO shop floor space in the Asia Pacific region.
As airline fleets continue to grow in the Asia-Pacific region to meet rising passenger demand, the need for modifications and upgrades for improved reliability and maintainability of the aircraft has increased as well. As such, UTC Aerospace Systems has invested in its MRO capacity to meet this growing demand, including a recent $10 million investment for the Boeing 787 program. UTC Aerospace Systems' proximity to its customers enables premier customer support, including onsite support and easy access to spares with a 24/7 exchange pool which reduces cost and decreases turnaround time for repairs and maintenance. The site leverages innovative technology, such as robotics and automation, for improved process efficiency. As one of the company's more than 50 global MRO facilities, the Singapore site is a regional center of excellence.
The facility is equipped to repair parts and components across many system types, including actuation systems, aero nozzles, cargo systems, electric systems, engine and control systems, evacuation systems, lighting systems and sensors and integrated systems. Furthermore, due to the electronic competence at the Singapore MRO facility, it is the only site in the world currently repairing Motor Drive Electronics (MDE) on the Airbus A380, a key differentiator of the UTC Aerospace MRO network.
"The Asia-Pacific region is a driving force for aviation, and continues to be a high-growth competitive market," states Daven Tey, General Manager of Worldwide Repair at UTC Aerospace Systems. "It is why we have continuously invested in our MRO capabilities and facilities to provide on-demand support for our customers. We have consistently maintained a superior delivery rating over the past decade and are proud to have a 98 percent on-time delivery rating this past year."

Червоногу́з ефіопський (Cryptospiza salvadorii) — вид горобцеподібних птахів родини астрильдових (Estrildidae). Мешкає в Східній і Центральній Африці. Вид названий на честь італійського орнітолога Томмазо Сальвадорі.

Опис
Довжина птаха становить 10-12 см, вага 10,9-14 г. У самців голова і верхня частина спини сірувато-оливкові, решта верхньої частини тіла темно-кармінова. Хвіст короткий, оруглий, чорний. Від дзьоба до очей ідуть темні смуги. Підборіддя і горло світлі, тьмяно-жовті або блідо-оливкові, в залежності від підвиду. Решта нижньої частини тіла сірувато-оливкова, боки місцями поцятковані карміновими плямками. Аокривні пера крил мають кармінові краї, пера на нижній стороні крил мають широкі кармінові краї на зовншініх опахалах. Очі темно-карі, навколо очей червоні кільця. Дзьоб конічної форми, міцний, чорний, лапи темно-коричневі. Самиці мають подібне забарвлення, однак дещо більш тьмяне, верхня частина тіла у них тьмяно-червона, а нижня частина тіла блідо-оливкова. У молодих птахів верхня частина тіла більш коричнева, місцями поцяткована червоними плямами.

Підвиди
Виділяють три підвиди:
 C. s. salvadorii Reichenow, 1892 — Ефіопія і північна Кенія;
 C. s. ruwenzori Sclater, WL, 1925 — північний схід ДР Конго і південний захід Уганди (гори Рувензорі), захід Руанди і Бурунді;
 C. s. kilimensis Moreau & Sclater, WL, 1934 — південь Південного Судану, схід Уганди, Кенія і північ Танзанії.

Поширення і екологія
Ефіопські червоногузи мешкають в Ефіопії, Південному Судані, Уганді, Руанді, Бурунді, Демократичній Республіці Конго, Кенії і Танзанії. Вони живуть у вологих гірських тропічних лісах з густим підліском, на узліссях і в заростях на берегах струмків і річок. Зустрічаються поодинці, парами або невеликими зграйками до 6 птахів, на висоті від 1500 до 3000 м над рівнем моря. В Кенії спостерігалися зграйки до 50 птахів.

Ефіопські червоногузи живляться дрібним насінням трав, зокрема насінням мишія і розрив-трави. Віддають перевагу незрілому насінню, а також доповнюють свій раціон ягодами, плодами, квітками і дрібними безхребетними. Як і інші червоногузи, ефіопські червоногузи є дуже полохливими птахами, які при найменшому натяку на небезпеку ховаються в заростях.

Гніздування у ефіопським червоногузів відбувається одразу після завершення сезону дощів. Гніздо кулеподібне з трубкоподібним бічним входом довжиною кілька сантиметрів, робиться парою птахів з переплетених стебел трави і рослинних волокон, встелюється пір'ям і пухом, розміщується на висоті 2-4 м над землею. В кладці від 2 до 5 яєць. Інкубаційний період триває приблизно 2 тижні, пташенята покидають гніздо через 3 тижні після вилуплення. Насиджують і доглядають за пташенятами і самці, і самці. Пташенята стають повністю самостійними через 1,5 місяці після вилуплення.

Is 'NBC Nightly News' Trolling Wee-Hour Eyeballs To Goose Ratings?

With Brian Williams off the anchor desk for at least six months for padding his combat experience, it seems NBC Nightly News been bulking up its airings to maintain an edge. In a tight race with ABC News' evening World News Tonight, the Comcast-owned NBC News has been picking up extra eyeballs among the insomniac crowd in recent weeks by re-airing Lester Holt's 6:30 PM broadcast in the early AM hours in 10 markets across the country.
Last week saw NBC affiliates in Cleveland, St. Louis, Portland, Atlanta, Minneapolis, Seattle, Denver, Charlotte, Buffalo and Knoxville showing the Holt-anchored broadcast in its entirety early in the morning. According to NBC News, the replays started in early February just before Williams' Choppergate tall tale started to spin out of control. Beginning with one station that week, then up to three and now 10, NBC reportedly instructed Gannett to start replaying the Nightly News on the stations in those markets that it owned.
Holt took over the desk from Williams on February 9 after the embattled anchor stepped back for "several days" two days before that. On February 10, NBC suspended Williams until August as more questions arose about his version of events surrounding a 2003 firefight in Iraq.
According to Nielsen, such re-airings and counting those viewers toward ratings and viewership totals are within the Big 4's rights — though NBC seems to be the only one doing it. Under Nielsen policy, the re-aired programming must be exactly the same as the original broadcast — including the ads. It also can't be broadcast in markets that make up more than 30% of the country in total. So, no extra revenue but a few possible rating and viewership gains. The re-airings were never disclosed in any NBC announcements in the weeks since the practice started either when they have come out on top or slipped against World News Tonight With David Muir like last week among adults 25-54.

Those extra NBC broadcasts could make all the bragging-rights difference in a tight race that saw NBC Nightly News beat World News Tonight with an average of 8,131 million viewers over the week of March 9 compared to ABC's 8.120 million. That's an 11,000-viewers gap on a week that saw NBC down 16.5% from the week before. With 2.033 million watching, the latter broadcast took the adults 25-54 demo lead over the former for the first time in two weeks during the same frame. The Holt-anchored NBC broadcast drew 1.960 million viewers in the news demo.
CBS does not replay its evening news broadcasts, according to sources at the network. ABC has not authorized any re-airing of its news broadcast in any markets and don't know of any of their affiliates doing so, said a source at the Disney-owned news unit. NBC News says that while it launched the program on February 2, they'd been planning it since last fall.
"Like any forward-looking media organization, we have been focused on ways to reach our audience when and how they want to be reached," said a NBC News spokesperson today. "Over the last year we have launched NBC Nightly News on VOD and SiriusXM, and we have made the broadcast available at later airings in some markets. We believed there would be an appetite for NBC Nightly News in addition to its regular time slot, and that has proven to be true: the viewer response has been overwhelmingly positive."

Over the past 60 years, Subaru has forged a reputation for building vehicles that offer superior levels of protection through the use of technologically advanced active and passive safety systems. The end result is a line of vehicles that pushes the envelope and regularly receives the highest possible ratings from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). So it's no surprise that the 2019 Subaru Outback is as robust in terms of safety standards as its rugged engineering would suggest.
The Outback boasts superior levels of active safety, a rock-solid reputation for accident avoidance and top marks from industry experts. The secret to its success is a combination of mechanical systems — such as Subaru Symmetrical Full-Time AWD, striking agility and fantastic visibility — and next-generation technologies, such as Vehicle Dynamics Control with Active Torque Vectoring, ABS and the available EyeSight®◊ driver assist technology.
Smart engineering and forward-thinking design separate this SUV alternative from the crowd when it comes to outward visibility. With its healthy ground clearance, steeply raked windshield, unobtrusive A-pillars, front quarter windows, door-mounted side mirrors and lofty seating position, the Outback features fantastic sightlines in all directions.
The Outback is available with EyeSight®, which utilizes two cameras to monitor activity on the road ahead, help identify potential danger and provide assistance to the driver when needed most. This award-winning technology incorporates four different advanced active-safety systems: Adaptive Cruise Control, Pre-Collision Braking, Pre-Collision Throttle Management, and Vehicle Lane Departure and Sway Warning with Lane Keep Assist. With this feature, the Outback has earned the highest possible front-crash prevention rating from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS)**.
Standard on models equipped with EyeSight®, High Beam Assist allows the driver to keep the high beams activated at all times. When the EyeSight stereo cameras detect an oncoming vehicle or the distance to the vehicle in front has reduced, the system automatically switches the headlights to low beams. When other vehicles are far enough away, the system turns the high beams on again.
Also included on Outback models equipped with EyeSight®, Reverse Automatic Braking detects obstacles behind the vehicle and automatically applies the brakes if a collision seems imminent. This system also incorporates warning features: different patterns of alarms according to the distance the car is away from an obstacle and a visual representation of the distance is projected onto the centre console screen.
The available SRVD system represents a big step towards full-perimeter preventive safety and has three distinct functions: Blind Spot Detection, Lane Change Assist and Rear Cross Traffic Alert. Blind Spot Detection identifies vehicles behind the C-pillars and in other blind spots, while Lane Change Assist detects fast-approaching vehicles when changing lanes. Using a sensor in the back of the vehicle, Rear Cross Traffic Alert signals drivers of approaching vehicles while reversing, such as out of a parking space or driveway.
Being able to see behind you is not only a great convenience, it's an invaluable active safety feature. This rearview camera is mounted close to the centre of the vehicle to capture a crystal-clear, distortion-free image of what's behind your vehicle. This wide-angle image is then projected onto the centre console screen, along with guidelines that show how the vehicle trajectory changes with steering adjustments.
When a vehicle approaches from behind or from an adjacent lane, these available mirrors automatically dim to protect your eyes from headlight glare. In addition, an approach lighting feature sees a beam of light projected from the mirrors to help you spot the door handles and avoid obstacles on the ground near the doors. The mirrors also house the Subaru Rear/Side Vehicle Detection system LED indicators, which have been moved to the inside of the housing for improved visibility.
Available on the Limited and Premier (2.5i and 3.6R) trim levels, these LED headlights automatically angle in the direction of the corner to provide better illumination at night. The headlights also cast a brighter and whiter beam for improved visibility.
The Vehicle Dynamics Control (VDC)† system utilizes multiple sensors to assess when the vehicle is approaching the limits of stability and then automatically adjusts the AWD torque distribution, engine output and brakes at each wheel to help stay on-course. The system is further aided by Active Torque Vectoring, which automatically applies brakes to the inside front wheel and distributes more torque to the outside front wheel during cornering. These systems, standard on all models, work together to create superior stability, cornering prowess and accident avoidance capabilities.
The ABS on the Outback incorporates the latest thinking in braking systems to ensure consistent and reliable performance under all possible driving conditions. The advances include Electronic Brake-force Distribution (which automatically adjusts front/rear brake pressure under different vehicle loads), Brake Override (which cuts engine power when the brakes are applied) and Brake Assist (which provides added stopping power in emergency-braking situations). The Hill Holder System, which helps prevent rollback when getting underway on steep inclines, is also controlled automatically by the braking system.
In the event that a collision proves unavoidable, it's vitally important that a vehicle is strong enough and advanced enough to help protect all occupants from harm. As with all Subaru vehicles, the Outback features a wide range of passive safety systems engineered to deliver class-leading levels of protection. Exceptionally strong construction combined with the latest technologies helps minimize collision damage and, in turn, generate greater peace of mind.
This advanced frame design incorporates high-tensile steel, connects the roof to the side pillars and the floor, and uses cross-members to create one super-strong structure that dissipates and diverts crash energy away from the passenger cabin. A front crumple zone provides further protection in the event of a frontal impact.
The Outback features a full complement of supplemental restraints, including dual-stage front airbags, front seat side-impact airbags, front seat cushion airbags and side-curtain airbags with rollover sensors for front and rear outboard occupants. This unwavering focus on passive safety represents an integral part of the Subaru brand promise.
Every aspect of the Outback is engineered to better withstand the effects of a collision and to protect passengers from injury. The front seats, for example, are designed with rigid frames, firm headrests and energy-absorbing inner seat springs to help mitigate the effects of a rear-end collision and reduce the chances of whiplash.
The SUBARU BOXER engine and transmission feature low-profile designs that are also mounted low in the frame of the vehicle. In the event of a head-on collision, both the engine and transmission are designed to absorb impact energy, then break away from the vehicle structure and drop below the passenger cabin for added protection.

SOURCE: Daily News Egypt - Nile Pioneers sponsors 2018 NASA 'Space Apps Challenge' in Cairo
The Nile Pioneers Initiative, co-launched by the Central Bank of Egypt (CBE) to support entrepreneurship across Egypt, sponsored the NASA's Space Apps Challenge in Cairo this year, set up the primary camp for hosing the participants at Nile University.
It will be Egypt's fourth local hackathon of NASA's Space Apps Challenge. The Space Apps Challenge is a two-day hackathon, where teams of technologists, scientists, designers, artists, educators, entrepreneurs, developers, and students collaborate and engage with publicly available data, to design innovative solutions for global challenges.
The primary camp was visited by Mostafa Mounir, representative of the CBE's banking development sector; Heba Labib, executive director of the Nile Pioneers Initiative; Anne Ruth, cultural attaché of American Embassy in Cairo; Dina Tantawy, competition president; and Ahmed Aboul Saoud, representative of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) in Egypt.
According to Mounir, the CBE places technology as a key driver for achieving financial inclusion and enhancing the entrepreneurial environment as the bank's top priority.
This was the reason behind launching a strategic partnership between the CBE and Nile University to establish the Nile Pioneers Initiative, which aims to support entrepreneurs and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), especially in agriculture, industry, and digital transformation, he added.
Labib called on Egyptian youth to unleash their ideas and imagination because what they are developing today will eventually be the technology of daily life tomorrow.
She added that space apps provided over 2,000 inventions in the fields of agriculture, industry, health, electronics, information technology among others, noting that these inventions led to the revival of different economies and nations.
The Nile Pioneers is a five-year initiative funded by the CBE and implemented by Nile University. It aims to support and develop entrepreneurship and SMEs, as well as boost local production.

1. In electric power distribution, a busbar is a metallic strip or bar, typically housed inside switchgear, panel boards, and busway enclosures for local high current power distribution. They are also used to connect high voltage equipment at electrical switchyards, and low voltage equipment in battery banks. They are generally uninsulated, and have sufficient stiffness to be supported in air by insulated pillars. These features allow sufficient cooling of the conductors, and the ability to tap in at various points without creating a new joint. 2. A busbar is an electrical conductor, maintained at a specific voltage and capable of carrying a high current, usually used to make a common connection between several circuits in a system.

The Impact of Sexual Harassment on Depressive Symptoms during the Early Occupational Career
Jason N. Houle, Jeremy Staff, Jeylan T. Mortimer, Christopher Uggen, Amy Blackstone
Sociology and Criminology
Sexual harassment has been theorized as a stressor with consequences for the physical and mental health of its targets. Although social scientists have documented a negative association between sexual harassment and mental health, few longitudinal studies have investigated the association between sexual harassment and depressive symptoms. Using longitudinal survey data from the Youth Development Study, combined with in-depth interviews, this article draws on Louise Fitzgerald's theoretical framework, stress theory, and the life course perspective to assess the impact of sexual harassment on depressive affect during the early occupational career. In support of Fitzgerald's model, the authors' findings confirm that sexual harassment is a stressor that is associated with increased depressive symptoms. Quantitative results show that women and men who experience more frequent sexual harassment at work have significantly higher levels of depressed mood than nonharassed workers, even after controlling for prior harassment and depressive symptoms. Moreover, the authors find evidence that sexual harassment early in the career has long-term effects on depressive symptoms in adulthood. Interviews with a subset of survey respondents point to a variety of coping strategies and reveal further links between harassment and other aspects of mental health, such as anger and self-doubt.

Big Red Kidney Bus embarks on NSW holiday tour
Patients living with kidney failure can now plan holidays without the worry of missing life-saving treatment, with the launch of the first mobile dialysis service in a bus.
Health Minister Brad Hazzard said the NSW Government has provided more than
$382,000 for up to 250 patients a year to receive dialysis on the Big Red Kidney Bus, which will tour popular holiday spots across NSW.
"It is tough enough living with kidney disease, without being tied down to your home and unable to take a break due to the restrictions of dialysis," said Mr Hazzard.
"This fantastic service means that patients can plan a trip or travel to see friends and family and still be able to receive life-saving treatment."
The Big Red Kidney Bus, a partnership between Royal North Shore Hospital (RNSH) and Kidney Health Australia, is a state-of-the art unit fitted with three dialysis chairs and will provide about 1,500 dialysis treatments a year when at full capacity.
The bus will complement the state-wide service currently delivered through RNSH's Sydney Dialysis Centre.
Mikaela Stafrace, CEO of Kidney Health Australia, said almost 3,000 people in NSW are living on haemodialysis, however many more are at risk of kidney disease.
"Early kidney disease has no signs or symptoms and can affect people of all ages. People with diabetes, high blood pressure, weight problems, people of Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander origin, smokers and those with a family history of kidney problems should ask their doctor for a Kidney Health Check every two years," said Ms Stafrace.
Member for Terrigal Adam Crouch is delighted the first stop for the Big Red Kidney Bus will be one of the best-known getaways in NSW.
"The Central Coast has become the destination of choice for holiday makers in NSW so we are thrilled the bus will allow people on dialysis and their families to holiday here," said Mr Crouch.
The bus will stop for six weeks in each holiday location, beginning in Umina (15 May- 24 June), Nelson Bay (3 July-1 August), Coffs Harbour (21 August-30 September) and Ballina (9 October-18 November). Bookings can be made be made by contacting Kidney Health Australia bigredkidneybus@kidney.org.au or by calling 1800 454 363.

Denise Ho – Becoming the Song
Directed by Sue Williams | 2020 | 83 minutes | Not Rated | USA | English and Cantonese with English Subtitles
Denise Ho – Becoming the Song profiles the openly gay Hong Kong singer and human rights activist Denise Ho. Drawing on unprecedented, years-long access, the film explores her remarkable journey from commercial Cantopop superstar to outspoken political activist, an artist who has put her life and career on the line to support the determined struggle of Hong Kong citizens to maintain their identity and freedom.
Denise's story mirrors almost perfectly the last three decades of Hong Kong's uneasy relationship with China. A top international recording artist in Hong Kong and across China and other Asian nations, the turning point in her career came during the seminal moment of change for Hong Kong, the Umbrella Movement of 2014. Her public support of students who demanded free elections and occupied central Hong Kong for nearly three months had immediate and lasting consequences: she was arrested and then blacklisted by China.
Under pressure, sponsors dropped Denise and venues refused to let her perform. The film follows Denise on the road as she tours the U.S., Canada and UK and prepares to release a new hit song, attempting to rebuild her career. But it soon became clear she is also reflecting on her life's trajectory. In June 2019, Hong Kong exploded in anti-extradition law protests with millions taking to the streets, and Denise once again faced a turning point. She has been in the streets with the tear gas and water cannons. She has tried to mediate for and protect the protesters. She has addressed the United Nations and U.S. Congress to explain the crisis and plead for international help, making it clear that Hong Kong's struggle is a desperate fight for basic freedom and democracy around the world.
As the film draws to a close, the fight for Hong Kong continues…
