Two men who viciously attacked a bin man and a Garda because their bin wasn't collected have been jailed.
John McCann (32), along with Craig Redmond (21), launched the attack after the bin had been blacklisted for non-payment. They also assaulted Garda Michael Hughes after he arrived on the scene.
Both men were sentenced to three years in prison at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court on Wednesday.
A victim impact report stated that Garda Hughes, an active marathon runner, was unable to get around because of a knee injury he sustained in the attack.
He thanked Garda Shane Deegan, who he described as a six foot four rugby player, for coming to his assistance.
He said no family should have to see a Garda come home in the state he was on the night of the attack.
He has since moved to an office job in an Garda Siochana. He feels his running career has been destroyed as he is unable to walk unaided. Garda Hughes concluded his statement saying that no one had ever given him an explanation or an apology.
McCann of Virginia Drive, Finglas, Dublin and Redmond of Valley Park Drive, also in Finglas were sentenced to three years by Judge Melanie Greally.
She suspended the final 18 months of McCann's sentence in light of his efforts to rehabilitate himself.
She suspended the final year of Redmond's sentence after taking the view that he has made less effort to rehabilitate.
McCann pleaded guilty to assaulting both the refuse collector and Garda Hughes at Virginia Park Finglas on May 8, 2015. Redmond pleaded guilty to assaulting the bin man.
Garda Griffin said that the victim and his colleagues were collecting for Greyhound West Recycling in Virginia Park in Finglas, when they loaded a bin onto the truck that had been blacklisted for non-payment.
The men returned the bin and put a sticker on it for the owner to explain why it had not been collected. Three men then came from a nearby green area and started giving out to the victim's colleague for not taking the bin.
The victim intervened to explain as he had better English than his colleague. The men began to push both of the bin men before they lifted the bin and tried to emptied it into the back of the truck.
One of the men who had a lighter in his hand, threatened to set the contents of the truck on fire.
Redmond then tried to get the driver's door open and pull the man out of the truck. The driver closed the door and moved off leaving his two colleagues behind.
Garda Robert Griffin said the victim managed to call the Gardaí before one of the men threatened to punch him.
The man moved backwards and fell over before all three attacked him, punching and kicking him all over.
Gardaí arrived a short time later to find the man still being attacked.
Garda Griffin said Garda Hughes witnessed Redmond attacking the victim and McCann pushing the man's colleague.
Redmond claimed they were defending themselves. McCann fled the scene but Garda Hughes pursued him, caught him and brought him back to his patrol car.
Gardaí were trying to establish what happened by talking to the bin men when one of the attackers became verbally abusive and was handcuffed and arrested.
McCann tried to punch Garda Hughes before running away but the garda managed to catch him. He continued to hit at Garda Hughes who warned McCann to get on the ground.
He called for urgent assistance before McCann kneed him in the knee. The garda managed to hold onto McCann before he was struck again in the face.
Garda Deegan then moved McCann off Garda Hughes and he was brought into Finglas Garda Station.
Garda Hughes had multiple cuts to his arms and a swollen eye. He had an x-ray carried out on both his face and knees and suffers ongoing knee pain. He was required to rest for three months.
The other victim had a bump to the left side of his head, bruising and swollen left eye. He had cuts to his elbows and found breathing difficult because of kicks he had received to his ribs. He didn't prepare a victim impact statement.
Garda Griffin told Karl Finnegan BL, prosecuting, that Redmond has struggled with addictions and has 30 previous convictions for offences including theft, assault, criminal damage, burglary and robbery.
McCann also has addiction issues and has 31 previous convictions for theft, road traffic, robbery, burglary, criminal damage and assault.
Sandra Frayne BL, defending McCann told Judge Greally that her client was drunk at the night but had not come to garda attention in recent months.
She said he was in a traffic accident in 2002 which led to him being treated in hospital for a number of weeks. She described him as immature and limited intellectually.
Counsel said McCann wished to apologise to Garda Hughes for his behaviour. He had €1,000 in court for Garda Hughes who said he would accept it on behalf of a relative, a terminally ill child.
James Dwyer BL, defending Redmond said his client had shown "huge remorse" and had used his time awaiting sentence rehabilitating from his alcohol and drug addiction.
He said he couldn't remember much of that day and had €300 in court as token of his remorse to his victim.


Last week I realized I was in need of some TLC. My body and brain felt weary. I hadn't truly cared for them in a while. And I now know, after years of expecting others to give me permission or flat out do it for me, only I can truly give my body and brain the care they need. Others can facilitate by providing the space or the means, but I have to do the work.
That's why it's called self-care.
So, last Monday I made a plan that carried me through the week, starting with a meal plan. I made sure my week was filled with healthy, home-cooked meals to nurture my body. I also exercised everyday – just enough to energize me and get me moving, but not so much that I would feel drained after.
On Wednesday I took time to look back on what I had accomplished last year and look forward at my goals for 2018. I decided I should follow a "do less, but better" approach this year (a phrase I learned from Hilary Rushford), so as not to spread myself too thin trying to accomplish all the things.
And then, on Friday, I ended my week with a trip to my local bookstore. I love going to bookstores to browse and sip coffee and read books. I find it incredibly relaxing and a way to quiet my busy mind.
When I arrived at the bookstore, I didn't find the book I was looking for, but that didn't matter so much. I found another book along my search, as I usually do, and proceeded to the in-store coffee shop. I bought my coffee, sat down at one of the tables and began to read.
At first my body and brain kept revolting. I was fidgety and unfocused. I kept feeling the urge to get up and leave. But the longer I sat there – the more I leaned in to the moment – the more I realized this moment was exactly what I had been needing.
My body and brain eventually melted into the relaxation. And that's when I could feel the emotions welling up. I had been suppressing emotions with a busy body and distracted brain, and now it was time to release.
I smiled and felt joy. I cried and felt pain.
The emotions became present when I became present. They were all part of it – my little trip to the bookstore.
Sometimes we underestimate our need for "little trips to the bookstore." We underestimate our need for nourishment and movement and reflecting and the little things that will fill us up until we spill over onto a coffee shop table.
But these little things, these small, deliberate acts of self-care, can make a big difference in how we feel from the inside out. And it just takes us acting upon them to realize it.
I truly didn't realize how badly I needed self-care until that moment of surrender at the bookstore. I felt the heaviness of life being lifted off my chest and I felt just how light breathing can be.
We all have little things that calm us down and fill us up. And in a world where stress and running on empty seem synonymous with success, we desperately need relief and reminders that we are enough. We need reminders that our innermost self – our best, truest self – has always been worthy of love, care and personal time.
If you haven't given yourself the gift of self-care in a while, I encourage you to do so in some small way today. Stop and listen to your body and brain. What do they truly need right now? What is your "little trip to the bookstore"?

Finding love in a not-so hopeless place?
March 12, 2018 by SpeakAboutIt
Guest post: Finding love in a not-so hopeless place?
March 3, 2018 by Amanda Bonnevie
Inspired by our #hotgoss series on dating apps, guest writer, Amanda, shares her own story about swiping right and opening her mind to a healthier relationship with online dating.
Source: The Knot
I joined dating apps out of a voyeuristic sense of curiosity more than anything. I had just gotten out of a marriage that I went into much too young, so I hadn't really ever participated in "hookup culture" or experimented with dating apps. I wasn't exactly a nun before, but joining Tinder was part of my personal ascent to sexual liberation. It was also a chance to join the rest of the people my age that were living and dating in the 21st century. I felt kind of like I was emerging from a Mesozoic era where I had once apparently been.
At first I was fascinated with the apps. Portland is really small, so I liked seeing how people presented themselves on a dating app as opposed in real life, how I knew them. I liked seeing how people presented their good qualities and how they hid their glaring flaws. I said my motivation for joining the apps was so I could spy on my friends and chuckle at their answers to OkCupid questions. Looking back, if that was my reasoning, how healthy could my relationship with them be?
But, I did meet some great people online. I met one of my dearest friends on Bumble, and yes, I met my husband on Tinder. When I first started using the apps it was clear to people who came across my profile that I wasn't taking it super seriously. My Tinder bio simply said "I'm not here for boys. I'm not here for girls. I'm here to save rock n' roll." My OkCupid profile was just a bunch of question marks. To me, it seemed obvious: I didn't really care.
The moments I matched with someone I knew already, usually from a distance, made me approach Tinder conversations differently. People care a lot more about how they interact with a person through a screen when they realize that they're going to eventually have to interact with them in person. Internet culture is a great example of how badly people will treat one another depending on the level of anonymity they are able to maintain. Social media and dating apps create the opportunity for people carefully construct their entire identity, and control their own and other people's narratives. People are bound to exploit those opportunities, and dating is no exception.
People care a lot more about how they interact with a person through a screen when they realize that they're going to eventually have to interact with them in person.
I soon learned that a great Tinder profile does not a great person make. True story, I once found myself on a Tinder date with an aggressive anti-feminist. He carefully omitted that massive red flag (for me) from his profile and our conversation, I assume dto put off the consequence of my inevitable rejection of him. It wasn't until he let slip some deeply troubling ideas over drinks that I got wise. Needless to say, the date ended abruptly with me handing him a $20 and flitting out the door. This experience definitely made me lose trust in how well I could get to know someone based on five pictures and a few hours of online chatting.
When I matched with Nate (my future hubs) on Tinder, I messaged him first. I did so in French because his profile said he spoke French. (Which, btw, was definitely a lie, because even though he insists still that it said he was "learning French", like, he totally can't.) But I took him seriously because there was a potential for an interaction I desired: a way to practice a foreign language I had learned. Unfortunately, we only got out about five sentences in French before the truth revealed itself. I remember thinking to myself, "Strike one, Tinder Boi. Strike one."
When he messaged me one night asking if I could hang out, I was pretty surprised. He told me he traveling to China for work in thirteen hours, and he wanted to hang out that night before he left. Having been burned before, I immediately smelled BS, consulted a friend (who, spoiler alert, caught the bouquet at our wedding last month), and promptly lied about being busy.
Fast forward a month and my phone buzzes - it's Nate from Tinder! He's sent me a picture message! I opened my phone expecting the worst - an unsolicited dick pic - but instead saw a photo of Nate, standing and smiling in front of a street sign written in both Chinese and English that said "Nathan Road". His first name. Cute. The caption was something mundane about his experience traveling to Hong Kong. He hadn't been lying, and I felt like a jerk.
He proved to me, even over a digital medium, that he was a person of his word. That he was invested in our conversation, in sharing himself with me and likewise. We went on our first date the week he came back, and the rest is adorable history.
Amanda & Nate got married in their friends' attic. #goals #toocute
I often joke about how Nate and I met on Tinder, and that we truly did find love in a hopeless place. But meeting Nate and trusting Nate really changed the way I look at dating apps. I think making dating apps work in a healthy, satisfying way is a matter of intention, and figuring out what you want from the app. It's also about hearing other people for what they say to you. It's so difficult to try and gauge someone else's intentions when you're only able to look at them through a lens as narrow as your iPhone, and that can lead to broken trust, broken hearts, and sometimes much worse.
But meeting Nate and trusting Nate really changed the way I look at dating apps. I think making dating apps work in a healthy, satisfying way is a matter of intention, and figuring out what you want from the app. It's also about hearing other people for what they say to you.
If I had to give anyone advice on how to have a healthy relationship with dating apps, it would be two-fold. 1) Pay very close attention to gut feelings. You know your boundaries, and if someone has pushed them, you're allowed to put the phone down, or leave a date, and walk away. And 2) Be 100% honest about what you're looking for, both with yourself and with other people.
In my case, I wasn't really looking for anything in particular, and I tried to be straightforward about that and expected the same from other people. Sometimes I got it, and sometimes I didn't. And when I didn't, I listened to my gut and left. Nate was honest about how much he liked me. Luckily, he didn't take my mjudgment personally, and turned around and expressed genuine, earnest interest in me. I saw that, and trusted my gut instinct to change my first impression of him too. And so far? So good.
Love and relationships, whether they're friendships, sexual encounters, or committed romances, are always a gamble regardless of how they're kindled; there's always potential to get hurt. As for me, I went from having no idea what I wanted to marrying the love of my life thanks to a dating app. But that wasn't without its missteps and miscommunications before (and after) we both swiped right. Just because we met on an app, doesn't mean we didn't have to work on our relationship in real life.
Just because we met on an app, doesn't mean we didn't have to work on our relationship in real life.
The same rules should always apply whether you're talking at a bar, at work, or online: be kind, be honest, and for God's sake unless they ask, don't send anyone a photo of your genitals.

Suit Accuses Televangelist of Breaking Moral Clause

(RNS) Christian publisher Strang Communications has sued evangelist Benny Hinn, claiming he violated a moral clause in a book agreement and owes the company more than $250,000.
"Strang discovered that Mr. Hinn was engaged in a public, romantic and otherwise inappropriate relationship with another high-profile minister, who was divorced," according to the suit, filed Feb. 15 in a Seminole County, Fla., circuit court.
The company said it learned of the relationship last summer when Hinn was divorcing his wife, Suzanne Hinn.
At that time there were news reports that Hinn was seen holding hands with evangelist Paula White of Without Walls International Church in Tampa, Fla.
The suit alleges that Hinn admitted to the publisher that he had an "inappropriate relationship with the other minister" and was obligated to repay advances for three future books.
Strang, which was recently renamed Charisma Media, said Hinn had refused to pay and, as of Dec. 31, owed the publisher $251,097.
A spokesman for Hinn, who is based in Irving, Texas, could not be reached immediately for comment.
In August, Charisma magazine, which also is owned by Strang, reported that Hinn admitted to a "friendship" with White.
"A friendship did develop," Hinn said of White, after the National Enquirer published a photo of the two of them in Rome last year. "Hear this: No immorality whatsoever. These people out there are making it sound like we had an affair. That's a lie."

Celluloid Wizards in the Video Wasteland (Empire Pictures) Documentary
Discussion in 'General' started by Katatonia, Oct 25, 2015.
celluloid wizards
empire pictures
Official website: http://www.empirepicturesdocumentary.com/
Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/empirepicturesdocumentary
HD Teaser Trailer: https://vimeo.com/142910151
It's currently up as a Kickstarter project with various perks: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/ballyhoomotionpics/celluloid-wizards-in-the-video-wasteland
An epic documentary about the dramatic rise and fall of Empire Pictures, the most ambitious B-movie studio of the 1980's.
Scientists. Psychopaths. Aliens. Mutants. Cyborgs. Trolls. Valet Girls. Sorority Babes. These are only a few of the extraordinary characters that populated the cinematic universe of Empire Pictures, the short-lived film studio founded in the 1980's by legendary B-movie producer Charles Band (The Puppet Master series). While other independent studios were targeting the growing home video market, Band was producing low-budget horror and fantasy features for multiplexes worldwide.
But, while Band ambitiously exclaimed "2,000 movies by the year 2000", his newfound studio was rapidly crumbling beneath him. His unbridled passion for motion picture marketing and distribution clashed with scandalous banking practices, largely due to a turbulent relationship with the infamous Crédit Lyonnais. But what really caused the youthful film company to crash and burn upon the sticky floors of empty movie theaters?
From the immediate box office success of "Re-Animator" and "Ghoulies", to abysmal failure of "Eliminators" and "TerrorVision", this unique documentary chronicles the epic journey of Charles Band's Empire Pictures. Beginning with his childhood spent on the set of his father's productions, and ending in the controversial aftermath of his first motion picture company, "Celluloid Wizards in the Video Wasteland" reveals the true origin story of one of the last surviving B-movie producers in Hollywood!
Let's see if Charles Band will fund the remainder of the project, eh?

Sorra feels like a knock-off of the surprisingly successful Cannon documentary, but I'll watch it if it gets made. It's being done by Ballyhoo, who did the special features for some Scream Factory titles and Shout's MST3K sets.

Everytime I see these big box exclusives I cringe. I remember everybody receiving the troma big box exclusives crushed. I wonder if they know that those will need to be mailed in a box? Not some cheap ass bubble mailer which always seems obligatory anyway.
Dobby, Oct 28, 2015
So far they've raised nearly $20,000, and need around $5,000+ more to meet the goal. 3 days to go before the campaign closes.
The main contribution amount is $40 — and you'll received the Blu-ray/DVD Combo of the documentary, the "Mandroid" 7-button set, and a special thanks in the end credits.
Katatonia, Nov 10, 2015
Contributed for the BD/DVD a while back. Not sure if it's going to make its goal!

I'd love to see this but not for $40. I hope it makes its way to the streaming services.

That includes shipping haha

Shipping to the US is included, yes. I gotta pay extra in Canada for shipping, but still I get to support it directly and a few extra perks with the button set and your name in the doc's credits make it worthwhile. So if you ask me, $40 is a good value for a Blu-ray/DVD combo, a button set, and a screen credit.
But you won't see it on streaming if it doesn't reach it's goal... as this Kickstarter only gets funded if it reaches the $25,000 goal.

The Arts and Crafts movement: a handmade history and its modern revival
When you hear the phrase "arts and crafts," you might think of grade school projects involving construction paper, crayons, glue and glitter. But Arts and Crafts is also a historical aesthetic movement that was the go-to style of some of the most respected creatives of its time.
The original movement does have one thing in common with the yarn and felt fabric of modern arts and crafts stores: namely, prioritizing handmade craft and a love of materials. This underlying philosophy is still resonant today, as designers struggle against the effects of digital mass production. But what exactly is Arts and Crafts and how can you take advantage of the iconic style? To learn the answers to that, we'll have to walk through the Arts and Crafts movement of the past and its evolution into the present day.
Arts and Crafts was an aesthetic and philosophical movement around the turn of the 20th century that revived pre-industrial techniques into the decorative arts. The term first originated in 1887 alongside the christening of the Arts and Crafts Exhibition Society in London, but the style itself had been developing for years beforehand.
But what exactly defines Arts and Crafts as a visual style? As the name implies, Arts and Crafts largely referred to handcraft, such as architecture, furniture, textiles, pottery, metal and glasswork. This means that its visual expression can change drastically depending on the artist and the medium, but there were a few common characteristics that emerged.
Arts and Crafts and Art Nouveau are both decorative movements that reigned around the same time, and their characteristics often look similar. For example, both were fond of arched frames, floral motifs and artisanal stained glass. In fact, many of the pioneers of the Arts and Crafts movement, like William Morris and C. F. A. Voysey, were also key players in the Art Nouveau scene.
The principal difference between the two is a subtle, philosophical one. While both styles looked to the past, Art Nouveau was a progressive movement looking to the future (hence the name, New Art). In this same vein, it took the medieval-inspired vines of the Arts and Crafts movement and developed them into abstract whiplash lines, one of Art Nouveau's more popular features.
It also did not shun technology in the same way that Arts and Crafts did. Instead, Art Nouveau's focus was on breaking down the barriers between fine art and design whereas Arts and Crafts was a reaction specifically against mass production. Art Nouveau was committed to creating art for the common man, and that meant finding the beauty in everything from nature to the factory floors.
The initial stirrings began with the 1851 Great Exhibition in London (the very first world fair), which displayed decorative pieces from all around the world. Many of the designers who attended were appalled by the shoddy quality during what was supposed to be a celebratory exhibition of international craft. Pieces were criticized as being rushed in construction, overly focused on ornamentation without purpose, and unmindful of the materials used. The culprit was identified as mass production.
Among the attendees was British writer and designer William Morris, who is now recognized as the progenitor of the Arts and Crafts movement.
Morris was largely influenced by philosopher John Ruskin (and later Karl Marx), and he believed that factory production had enforced a division of labor which alienated designers from their art. Morris and his circle of friends were also devotees of pre-Industrial Medieval art, which was known for its reverence for the natural world. Together, they founded Morris & Co in 1861 which dealt in architecture, furniture, textiles and glassware but also produced recognizable wallpaper featuring floral patterns reminiscent of medieval manuscripts.
Morris & Co would also emphasize the use of natural materials and handcrafted labor, as workers were encouraged to be involved in every part of the design process. Morris & Co designs became the most commonly featured at the Arts and Crafts Exhibition Society, defining the movement.
As the reputation of Morris and Co. grew, Arts and Crafts guilds started popping up all around the UK. Like the mercantile guilds of ages past, these allowed artisans (rather than profiteering capitalists) to set the quality standards and pricing. Notable names during the period included the Century Guild of Artists, Home Arts and Industries Association, and the Art Workers Guild. In 1893, The Studio magazine launched and became influential on both Arts and Crafts and Art Nouveau.
The Arts and Crafts movement eventually spread to the US, where its socialist undertones fit right in with the Progressive Era of American politics, particularly resonating with female reformers in the midst of the suffrage movement. Boston's Paul Revere Pottery and New Orlean's Newcomb Pottery were both women-owned businesses that focused not only on producing Arts and Crafts ceramics but on providing trade education to women (many of them struggling immigrants). And a principal architect that emerged during this time was Julia Morgan, the first female architect licensed in California who would go on to build over 700 buildings there, most famously Hearst Castle.
While overall American designers took their cues from the British movement, they tended to be more driven by mass consumerism, working with machines to produce simplified Arts and Crafts pieces that could be sold more readily.
After reigning for decades, the Arts and Crafts movement began to wane around the 1920s, in favor of Art Deco and modernism. Despite its noble intentions, there was a fundamental flaw embedded in its ideology: by looking to the past, it failed to keep up with the present. The handcrafted nature of the design not only proved to be too labor intensive for 20th century demands, it also meant that the products became inaccessibly expensive—a far cry from its socialist ideals.
But the legacy of Arts and Crafts would carry on into other movements. It saw a revival in the 1920s Mingei style in Japan, and most notably the ideas of form, function, and material would go on to inspire the Bauhaus school.
A century later, Arts and Crafts is seeing a resurgence in modern graphic design. While the physical machinery of the Industrial Revolution is less prevalent in our day-to-day lives, the digital era has brought a new kind of mass production through software tools. And the result has been a wealth of designs that feel stale, simplistic, and soulless. It is no wonder then why many designers are looking to the past to bring the craft back into graphic design.
The appeal of Arts and Crafts lies in its ability to make design projects feel personal and handcrafted. But how does this actually work in our digital age? After all, the original Arts and Crafts movement largely concerned architecture and home decor, but what about graphic design? To answer this, let's look at some modern examples.
Like its predecessor, modern Arts and Crafts tends to look backwards for inspiration—chiefly, at Medieval art. This means that classical themes like angelic figures, stained glass techniques, and nature symbolism are modernized for contemporary brands.
Nature motifs are especially present in illustrative patterns, reminiscent of the Morris & Co. wallpapers. These typically feature leafy vines and blooming arrangements, often used as frames for other design elements like typography or a central image.
But modern Arts and Crafts is not restricted to illustration or literal imagery. Typographic forms can take on an Arts and Crafts style through decorative strokes. While these organic curves and swirls subtly mimic hand drawn illuminated letters, a current trend isolates them within an otherwise standard letterform. This creates contrast, emphasizing the decorative stroke as if they are breaking free from uniformity.
Finally, and perhaps most importantly, Arts and Crafts is all about technique. Even if the design was made on the computer, it shouldn't look like it was made by a computer. Arts and Crafts is meant to evoke an old-world style of handcrafted art, taking advantage of illustrative techniques like loose flowing lines, cross-hatching and painterly textures. Reverence for the materials was always an essential point, which is why the best way to get into the Arts and Crafts spirit might just be to create your designs by hand before bringing them onto the computer.
Arts and Crafts was a movement that sought to place beauty front-and-center. It fought against the way industrial machines had ruined the aesthetic experience for both the artist and consumer. While it accomplished this by looking to pre-Industrial gothic styles, it is (perhaps more than any other decorative movement) more about its ethos than any particular look. To be an Arts and Crafts designer, you have to be willing to get your hands dirty, to care about the material and functionality of what you create. Arts and Crafts is more than glue and popsicle sticks—it is design with heart.
