Conventional Wisdom? The Republican Right is convinced that to "go woke" is to "go broke". It simply does not believe sufficient Americans feel strongly enough about social justice to make any kind of boycott remotely effective. Clearly, the Boards of Directors of more and more American corporations disagree.
RECENT MOVES by large American corporations to distance themselves from Republican Party voter suppression initiatives signal a profound historical shift. For the past 100 years, most political scientists have worked on the assumption that no political party cares more for the welfare of American capitalism than the Republican Party – and vice-versa. To hear Republican presidential hopeful Senator Marco Rubio come out swinging against Delta Airlines for its criticism of Georgia's new voting law is, therefore, both confusing and disconcerting. If "woke" capitalist corporations have joined the ranks of the Republican Party's enemies, then who the hell are its friends?
Before answering that question, however, let's sample just a little of Rubio's invective. According to the left-wing American periodical, Mother Jones:
"In a strange line of logic, the Florida senator seemed to argue that the law, which among other restrictions bans non-poll-workers from distributing water to waiting voters, was not as bad as genocide against Uighur Muslims in China, where Delta also does business, and therefore should not be subject to the company's reproach. 'They make billions of dollars in a country that doesn't even have elections…and they don't say a word about it,' Rubio argued, 'but in America they're prepared to boycott a state and condemn them publicly…They're hypocrites.'"
Not that they would stoop so low, but Delta Airlines could have responded that Georgia's Republicans and the Chinese Communist Party have all the appearance of political brothers, given that in both jurisdictions only one party is allowed to win.
The airline might also have pointed out that, while a boycott of China by Delta would have not the slightest impact on the fate of the Uighurs, a boycott of Georgia would greatly assist the efforts of black voters in that state to defend their hard-won civil rights. Certainly, the Montgomery bus boycott of 1955-56 had that effect!
The Republican Right is, however, absolutely convinced that to "go woke" is to "go broke". It simply does not believe sufficient Americans feel strongly enough about voter suppression to make any kind of boycott remotely effective. Clearly, the Board of Directors of Delta Airlines disagree.
And, they're right. The demographic structure of the United States population is undergoing a profound transformation. It is becoming younger and browner and, worse still, from the Republicans' perspective, it is becoming "woker". If this were not the case: if the 'natural home' of a clear majority of American voters was the Republican Party; then what possible interest would GOP-controlled state legislatures have in making it harder for young, brown and black Americans to cast their ballots?
Capitalists, both in the United States – and here in New Zealand – are rightly focusing their attention on the workforces and consumers needed to generate profits in the future. Far-Right political strategists refuse to acknowledge this. Unfortunately, for them, the terrified and angry whites upon whose slumping shoulders Donald Trump built his 2016 victory, are growing older and sicker and deader. Their political dominance can only be maintained by keeping voters who do not look and think like themselves away from the polling booths. But, that way lies the suppression of democracy and civil war – neither of which is particularly good for business. The last thing intelligent capitalists ever want to see is blood in their own streets.
Donald Trump's Republicans must be getting ever-so-slightly panicky about how many of the party's friends and allies are abandoning them. They are right to be worried. By alienating corporate capitalism and making bitter enemies of the mainstream media and universities, the Trumpists are, if they only knew it, corralling their followers into a socio-economic and cultural dead-end.
When all is said and done, it is corporate capitalism that manufactures the future, the mainstream media which decorates it, and the universities that pass out the credentials entitling their holders to live in the nicest parts of it. By shutting themselves out of liberal capitalism's Emerald City, Trump's poorly educated munchkins are slamming the door on their own and their children's best chance for a happy and prosperous future.
"Go woke, go broke!", the Far-Right gurus bray. They should pay more attention to history. For more than 250 years, Capitalism has avoided going broke by consistently putting its prodigious energies behind those widest awake to the future's most profitable possibilities.

Open immigration and asymmetrical multiculturalism support global capital's bottom line as well. Dissolving borders allows greater access to low-wage unskilled labor. It also helps businesses that rely on high-skill workers avoid supporting the schools that educate them, the families that rear them, and the communities in which they grow up. Anti-majoritarian politics, meanwhile, undermines the ability of any demos to form and wield democratic power against business. Thanks to these shared interests between intellectuals and investors, left-modernism has combined with capitalism's "four freedoms"—the free movement of goods, services, capital, and labor across borders—to become the ruling ideology throughout the West. It is hegemonic in English Canada—Kaufmann analogizes left-modernism there to the status of Islam in Iran!—and was so in the United States prior to the election of Donald Trump.
Immigration patterns combined with larger demographic trends show that whites will become a minority in all English-speaking countries by 2100. Kaufmann projects "unmixed whites" will make up just 40 percent of the U.K. and only 20 percent of Canada by that time.

The Democrats are bringing in voters.
The other thing is that the Republicans want voter ID (same as drivers licenses).
Corporates hate a countries ethnic base. Both National and Labour/Green want to keep us divided. Notice Nationals absence in the culture wars?
TVNZ can call returnees from India and China "Kiwis" as much as they like and cast them in that role for their propaganda but it doesn't alter the fact that we perceive ourselves belonging to some group or other. I feel no strong affiliation to multicultural New Zealand. Whose country is it? A question I keep asking is "who is in charge?" which really means "what holds us together?". Apart from living here and having citizenship we are a collection of "peoples" managed by media and bureaucrats. I don't know why but intuitively in such a situation corporates will be partners: divide and rule.
Fucken Florida man.

Where did you get the idea that Trump represented conservatives/the right. Trump simply targeted the pissed off who were disadvantaged by globalisation and/or had been ignored by the democrates.
The big companies will bend with the social wind. When it changes direction so will they. Their only intetest is dollars.
Yes. But the Republican right knows one thing that the 'woke' corporations don't seem to - that once people start voting they are harder to control than when they never vote. What would corporate America do if these enfranchised young black and brown people start to view themselves in class terms, and threaten to put whomever is the next generation's Bernie Sanders into the White House? Then you would see corporate America rapidly re-align with the Republican right. In this sense, the Republican right is being less ahistorical than the 'woke' corporations.

Aside from the unedifying gloating there's a bit of truth bending about this essay Chris.
Voting reforms to ensure legal compliance, and to avoid disputed results being described as "voter suppression initiatives" is more than a stretch. Perhaps the Dems manic embrace of racialism as their ticket in perpetuity to the White House has more than a few fatal flaws
"Companies like Coca-Cola now impose expensive racial 'diversity training' on their employees. Other businesses, like Uber Eats, have gifted free delivery for African-American-owned firms only, while Oakland has initiated a $500-a-month basic-income programme for poor people, funded by rich non-profits, but with the proviso that whites need not apply.
Racialism also holds short-term political benefits for Democratic politicians. Every Republican move now made – getting rid of the Senate filibuster or challenges to electoral laws – has morphed into a 'return to Jim Crow'. A discussion of controls, whether at the voting booth or the border, is immediately labelled as racist. Anyone suggesting otherwise risks being sent into the digital gulag by the dominant oligarchy."
"The vast majority of all races, noted a 2018 survey, reject the political correctness increasingly embraced by the billionaire class as well as corporate HR departments. Indeed, the most extreme people on racial issues are not Blacks and Hispanics but radicalised whites, whose Antifa shock troops well represent the lunatic fringe.
The woke may be winning in cyberspace and the corporate suite, but economic factors may prove more decisive in the long run. By 2032, minorities will constitute the majority of the American working class. They did better in terms of income under President Trump than previous administrations from both parties. This was one reason for the shocking move of Latin voters, devastated by the lockdowns, to Trump last year." Well worth a read in full.

It's interesting that that should be their slogan, considering that when you look at the figures, the Democrats seem to look after the economy a damn sight better than the Republicans. My American Internet acquaintances get quite sarcastic about how Republicans suddenly 'rediscover' the deficit whenever there is a Democratic administration. Because – they claim at least – Democrat spending is skewed towards productive endeavour rather than tax cuts for the rich.
What are these so called " voter suppression initiatives"?
Biden condemned Georgia's law recently, writing in a statement that: "Among the outrageous parts of this new state law, it ends voting hours early so working people can't cast their vote after their shift is over."
The Washington Post's fact check section recently gave the president "Four Pinocchios" after he said the law "ends voting hours early." The AJC corrected its article and noted that the new law, signed by Republican Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp, doesn't "limit voting hours."
"A previous version of this story said the new law would limit voting hours. On Election Day in Georgia, polling places are open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., and if you are in line by 7 p.m., you are allowed to cast your ballot. Nothing in the new law changes those rules,"
Quoting Governor Brian Kemp re the outright lies regarding changes to voting in Georgia: "I'm glad to deal with it," the governor said about the cacophony of corporate criticism.
"If they want to have a debate about the merits and the facts of the bill, then we should do that," Kemp said. "I would encourage these CEOs to look at other states that they're doing business in and compare what the real facts are to Georgia."
The SB 202 bill, signed into law March 25, formalized the distribution and handling of ballot drop boxes, set up a voter fraud hotline and required counties to tally up ballots without pausing count. It also expanded early voting access.
"This legislation mandates that every county have at least one drop box."
Additionally, the governor rebutted the assertion that voters waiting in line to cast a ballot cannot be provided with food and water under the new bill, a measure that many claim was meant to suppress minority voters.
"That is not true. People can serve and hand out bottles of water and food, as long as they are outside the 150-foot boundary from polling locations," Kemp said. This will presumably protect voters from being "harassed, intimidated or electioneered."
Unlike in New York, Georgians do not need "an excuse to vote absentee," Kemp said. Also, Georgia's voters have 17 days of early voting access, compared to New Jersey where there are nine days. "We're not going to back down when we have a bill that expands the opportunity for people to vote on the weekends in Georgia," Kemp said.

There was an American group in the 1940s, post Bretton Woods, who were against Roosevelt's New Deal and who argued that the Federal government should not be responsible for anything other than Police and Defence. That there should be 'economic liberty' - for the very very rich of course. For instance there should only be a low flat tax not a progressive one, no minimum wage, people should not have automatic voting rights and certainly not any welfare or social rights. Every man woman and child must be solely responsible for themselves. No Federal government should be able to force the state governments to do anything they didn't want to do. In particular they wanted segregation to continue. They were, and still are, a very powerful group in America. They set up groups and societies to promote their views and were and still are financed by the very very rich in the World and in particular the American Koch brothers. They are now are international group. Every senator or member of the House of Representatives is lobbied by companies who support these views who also write the legislation for them. The interesting thing is they have a very very long term position and maintain that change must happen very very slowly and be like building a house brick by brick. The change in America since its heyday of the 1960s shows how much they have achieved.
That doesn't take into account the very different nature of the counties in Georgia, some of which are quite large, which might mean you need a two hour or longer round-trip to get to your dropbox. Or perhaps in the inner city where minorities mostly live, there might be one dropbox among many thousands of people, which might mean you have to queue for a very long time to vote. Republicans have a history of creating laws that seem on the surface to be – if not fair – then at least disinterested, which in fact discriminated against people of colour in particular. It's not rocket surgery. When's the last time you had to wait for longer than about 10 minutes to vote in an election? I don't think I ever have.
I thought many of the billionaires club gave their and their companies support to the Democrat party.
It is interesting that in the latest corporate protests against the Georgian law, Coke and Delta have been absent. I suspect the blowback is starting to hit their finances.

LANSING — An analysis of the U.S. Department of Education's national civil rights data shows widespread disparities in the way public schools discipline students of color and those with disabilities.
The Government Accountability Office (GAO), a nonpartisan investigative arm of Congress, analyzed data for the school year 2013-14 and found that black students, boys and students with disabilities were disproportionately disciplined in K-12 public schools.
In Michigan, Agustin Arbulu, the executive director of the state Department of Civil Rights, said that the situation is similar to that in other states, and part of the reason is the low percentage of teachers of color.
"Approximately 83 percent of teachers in public school settings are white, while the number of African-American teachers continue to decline — I think it's about 6.5 percent. Hispanic teachers are somewhere around 7 percent," Arbulu said.
The GAO study found that disparities were consistent regardless of the type of disciplinary action, level of school poverty or type of public school. Black students accounted for 15.5 percent of all students, but 39 percent of students suspended from school — an overrepresentation of about 23 percent.
Rodd Monts, the field director for the American Civil Liberties Union of Michigan, said some of Michigan's policies facilitated the strictness of disciplinary measures against Black and Hispanic students and those with disabilities.
"Our zero-tolerance policy and lack of alternative discipline strategies were primarily to blame," Monts said.
Zero-tolerance is a policy that started with a 1994 gun-free schools law that requires schools that get federal aid to impose harsh punishment such as suspension or expulsion when students break certain rules.
In 2015. the ACLU, in partnership with other advocacy groups, conducted a study similar to the GAO's. It collected data from 40 districts across the state and found that in many cases, suspensions and expulsions from suburban districts were more disproportionate than in other districts.
"I get a lot of complaints from suburban school districts and charter school districts," said Monts.
Arbulu agreed and said that wealthier school districts, where 90-plus percent of students are white, have the greatest problem.
"We have seen that in the complaints that we have received, where students of color who go to school districts that are primarily white, file complaints based on racial discrimination claims," he said. He added that school districts should develop space for dialogue so minority students can feel included.
The GAO report noted that disciplined students who get removed from the classroom are more likely to repeat a grade, drop out and get into the juvenile justice system. And that could create costs for society, like incarceration.
The ACLU's findings, coupled with the efforts of other advocacy groups and people in education, law enforcement and the court system, prompted the Legislature to abolish the zero-tolerance policy. The change took effect last August.
Now, Monts said, schools must give greater consideration of the factors that lead to misconduct before suspending or expelling a student.
Arbulu said the vast percentage of teachers who are white may not be equipped to understand different cultural factors and socio-economic factors that many students of color come from.
"If you have 80 percent-plus teachers that are white, they're coming from a totally different perspective. They're coming from a narrative that's quite different than what an African-American student faces," he said.
Whether a student is African-American, Latino or Arab-American, Arbulu said education leaders should more actively provide training on how to address those issues among administrators, teachers and school board members.
"A lot of factors come into play — the role of implicit bias, the role of structural racism that's built into education and should be dismantled in a way that can be responsive to the changing makeup of the student population," he said.
Therefore, there's a need to increase the percentage of minority teachers, especially African-American teachers, by attracting them to the profession and keeping them there, Arbulu said.
The Civil Rights Commission will hold a series of hearings across the state on the connections between civil rights and education starting in Ypsilanti on May 21.
The GAO report analyzed discipline data from nearly all public schools for the school year 2013-14 and interviewed officials from five districts and 19 schools in California, Georgia, Massachusetts, North Dakota and Texas.
LANSING – Some states are moving toward a four-day school week but local districts in Michigan show no inclination to change their regular five-day school schedule, experts say. "It's a tough decision to make," said Jennifer Smith, the director of government relations at the Michigan Association of School Boards.

Philippine govt ready for health concerns of Taal evacuees
Residents in their bankas are dwarfed by the magnitude of the vertical eruption of the Taal volcano as they try to go to their homes to rescue some animals and belongings they left behind aat Barangay Bignay, Batangas on Monday. The STAR/Miguel de Guzman. Sketched by the Pan Pacific Agency.
MANILA, Jan 19, 2020, The Manila Times. The National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC) on Saturday assured the public that the government was prepared to take any action to address health concerns of families affected by the eruption of Taal Volcano, The Manila Times reported.
NDRRMC spokesman Mark Timbal said all concerned government agencies were giving support to all affected families at the evacuation centers, particularly for their health.
"Pangangalagaan po ng ating pamahalaan ang ating mga evacuees while they are within our care (Our government is taking care of our evacuees while they are within our care)," Timbal told The Manila Times in a text message.
He assured the public that all who contracted diseases would be immediately reported to camp managers.
"Kung meron pong may mga may karamdaman daglian po nating iulat ito sa ating camp managers para maaksyunan ng health officers natin (If they contract a disease, we will immediately report it to the camp managers so that health officers will take action on it)," Timbal said.
So far, no disease outbreak in the evacuation centers has been monitored or reported, he added.
Timbal said the Department of Health (DoH) continued to monitor all evacuation centers to prevent and address health concerns, adding that the department has deployed additional emergency medical teams to check the conditions of the evacuees.
"The needs of the evacuees were continuously provided," Timbal added.
The NDRRMC, according to Timbal, also keeps on coordinating with the private groups and organizations for possible assistance..
Based on the latest NDRRMC report, 22,472 families or 96,061 persons were affected by the Taal eruption.
Meanwhile, 16,174 families or 70,413 persons were accommodated in 300 evacuation centers.
A total of P17, 227, 950 in assistance was provided by the DoH, Department of Social Welfare and Development and local government units (LGUs).
Alert Level 4 is still raised over Taal Volcano and a state of calamity has been declared in Batangas and Cavite.
The volcano spouted 600-meter high of ash plumes on Saturday, dispersing smoke on its northern portions, the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs)said.
"(This is an explosion through the vent. which is on the northern flank of the volcano. This means that eruption may occur without warning in that place)," Phivolcs Director Renato Solidum Jr. said in a news briefing on Saturday.
Taal emitted lower amounts of sulfur dioxide ton Saturday compared to previous days with an average of 360 tons per day.
In its 8 a.m. bulletin, Phivolcs said Taal was "characterized by steady steam emission and infrequent weak explosions."
The Philippine Seismic Network has recorded a total of 666 volcanic earthquakes since Sunday.
"Such intense seismic activity likely signifies continuous magmatic intrusion beneath the Taal edifice, which may lead to further eruptive activity," it said.
Phivolcs reiterated total evacuation of Taal Volcano island and high-risk areas as identified in hazard maps within the 14-km radius from Taal main crater and along the Pansipit River Valley where fissuring was observed.
Authorities advised residents around Taal Volcano to guard against effects of heavy and prolonged ashfalls.
President Rodrigo Duterte is expected to visit again on Monday other affected areas in Batangas, his spokesman Salvador Panelo said on Friday.
Panelo added that Duterte's visit was meant to determine whether there was a need to come up with additional contingency measures for evacuees who were forced to flee their homes.
Sen. Christopher Lawrence "Bong" Go said the President had instructed concerned government agencies to fully support recovery efforts of local government units (LGUs) affected by the volcanic eruption.
He added that Duterte ordered the DoH to ensure the health of every Filipino, while he instructed the Department of Public Works and Highways "to immediately clear the roads of all the barriers and dirt and restore damaged infrastructures."
"And the President's order to the Department of Energy is to restore the power (supply) that was cut. And also the communication has to be restored immediately," Go said in a statement.
"And to DILG (Department of Interior and Local Government), for Secretary (Eduardo) Año, and to the Department of National Defense, they are the lead role for our disaster (relief) because the Office of the Civil Defense is under them," he added.
Citing possible health hazards brought by the ash fall in affected areas, Go called on the DoH to make a priority the cleaning of health centers and evacuation centers to ensure the safety of residents and evacuees.
The senator filed recently a bill providing for mandatory evacuation centers in all cities, provinces and municipalities nationwide and also called for the passage the "Department of Disaster Resilience (DDR) Act," which is now being deliberated in the Senate committee level.
In the House of Representatives, Deputy Speaker Michael Romero suggested to Duterte's advisers the creation of an Inter-Agency Taal Rehabilitation, Recovery and Livelihood Program, while the proposed DDR Act is not yet passed into law.
Mandatory SIM registration
Meanwhile, Sen. Sherwin Gatchalian cited the need for mandatory registration of prepaid subscriber identity module (SIM) cards as a way of running after perpetrators of hoax messages on mobile phones in relation to the Taal disaster.
Gatchalian noted how Phivolcs repeatedly flagged the spread of false and unverified information, which causes public panic and confusion.
He cited Republic Act 10639 or the Free Mobile Disaster Alerts Act, which imposes a fine of up to P10,000 and imprisonment of up to six months for persons who spread false or misleading data or information in times of calamities.
Fellow senator Jose Edgardo Angara urged the Department of Labor and Employment (DoLE) to provide emergency employment to affected workers by utilizing funds under its budget for assistance to workers in times of calamities and disaster.
Angara, chairman of the Senate finance committee that went over the 2020 General Appropriations Act, pointed to P120 million that it can tap to provide assistance to the displaced workers, particularly those who reside in the areas within the vicinity of Taal in Cavite and Batangas.
Under the 2020 national budget, the DoLE has P112.62 million for its Adjustment Measures Program and P6.8 million for its Tulong Panghanapbuhay sa Ating Disadvantaged/Displaced Workers or Tupad.
Tupad is a community-based package of assistance that provides emergency employment for displaced workers, underemployed and seasonal workers, for a minimum period of 10 days, but not to exceed a maximum of 30 days, depending on the nature of work to be performed.
To assist in rescuing animals trapped in danger zones, the Makati City government will deploy an impounding vehicle to Batangas
In a statement on Saturday, Makati City Mayor Mar-len Abigail Binay said the impounding vehicle will be deployed to Bauan, Batangas on Sunday, together with some personnel of the city Veterinary Services Department (VSD).
She added that the VSD personnel would turn over dog and cat food, vitamins, antibiotics and antiseptic solutions to the Batangas Provincial Veterinary Office.
Dr. Ma. Katherina Mangahas, Makati VSD chief, said the impounding vehicle has eight cages that can accommodate up to 24 medium-sized dogs.
Danilo Lim, Metro Manila Development Authority (MMDA) chairman and concurrent Metro Manila Disaster Risk Reduction Management Council head, has lauded efforts of Metro Manila LGUs in helping Batangas province as the number of evacuees continues to rise.
Serving as focal person for Disaster Risk Reduction and Management, Michael Salalima, head of the MMDA Public Safety Office, said they were continuously coordinating with the Batangas Provincial Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office on the relief efforts.
Other Metro Manila LGUs that sent aid to the Taal-hit areas were Manila, San Juan City, Parañaque City, Muntinlupa City, Taguig City, Quezon City, Mandaluyong City and Caloocan City.
The National Capital Region Police Office will donate a total of a projected P3.5 million from the policemen's combat pay for the evacuees.
The Philippine National Police has collected a total of P2.5 million for civilian victims from all its personnel nationwide.

OCRF - Challenge a Fight for LIFE
Words: Tom Skolarikis
Thu 15 May 2014, 12:28 PM
Friday night's Women in League Round opener between the Rabbitohs and the Storm marks the beginning of a new tradition between the clubs built on charity, playing for the inaugural Crown Resorts OCRF Charity Challenge Plaque, an initiative described as a fight for life by OCRF CEO Liz Heliotis.
The Challenge will serve as a fundraiser for the Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation (OCRF) and will be contested by the two Crown sponsored Clubs, with the Crown Resorts Foundation kicking off the fundraising with a $20,000 cheque to OCRF, and a further $1000 for every try scored during the match.
Fighting a disease that claims the life of one woman every 10 hours, OCRF CEO Liz Heliotis said that discovering an early detector is at the heart of OCRF.
"Most other forms of Cancer have early detectors," said Liz.
"With Ovarian Cancer though, you detect it late and the outcome is poor. We grant funds to appoint scientists around Australia dedicated to working on early detection, so we are in a position to make a serious contribution."

But the Foundation's fight is far more than a fight against a women's disease according to the OCRF CEO, but rather a fight for life.
"Not one of these men out on the field tomorrow would be born without the contribution of one healthy ovary," said Liz.
"Tomorrow night though, they have the ability to be the champions of this cause. You'd be amazed how many people in lonely places – in rural Australia for example – with this disease will be proud to be given a voice as these men fly the flag for them.
"That same courage, grit, and determination showed by professional athletes like those men tomorrow belongs to all people suffering out there."
The OCRF CEO praised the contribution of Crown Resorts and corporate Australia for their role in helping raise much-needed funds. But it is the seemingly modest contributions of Members and supporters at tomorrow night's match that can make a big difference according to Liz.
"Every dollar is powerful," said Liz.
"One, two or five dollars can go a very long way when it comes to research."
For Rabbitohs Head Coach Michael Maguire, the Challenge is a chance for his team to do their part for the important cause.
"It's a great opportunity to do a lot of good," said Madge.
"To be able to raise money for OCRF on the back of these two teams coming together is something that we're very proud to do, especially doing it in Women in League Round.
"We're fortunate as a Club to have great support from Crown Resorts, obviously sponsoring both teams to make this happen.
"It's a fairly unique opportunity I think, and for us as a Club we're proud to be able to do some good with our football, and we've said it many times – we're a family at Souths. Ovarian Cancer is something that affects families, so we're going to do our part.
"Hopefully we can score plenty of tries and add to the total money raised."
With the Rabbitohs now boasting a Membership base over 30,000 strong, the South Sydney mentor encouraged all Members to show up in droves not only to support the boys on-field, but to help raise funds for the all-important OCRF cause.
"I say it every week – we're blown away by the level of support we get from our Members and supporters," said Madge.
"This week will be no different, and hopefully we can help to raise plenty of money for such a great cause."

Dańdówka to duża dzielnica Sosnowca, miejsce ulokowania Katowickiej Specjalnej Strefy Ekonomicznej – Podstrefy Sosnowiecko-Dąbrowskiej, Obszar Dańdówka.

Graniczy od północnego zachodu z Sielcem, od północnego wschodu z Klimontowem, od południowego wschodu z Niwką, a od zachodu z Dębową Górą.

Przecięta torowiskiem historycznej Kolei Iwangorodzko-Dąbrowskiej, posiadającym tutaj stację, jednak rzadko już używaną na tym odcinku. Wschodnim obrzeżem przepływa rzeka Bobrek, przy której przebiega droga ekspresowa S1 posiadająca wjazd w kierunku Warszawy.

W dzielnicy wyodrębnia się:
 Dańdówka (Stara)- rejon skrzyżowania ulic: 11 Listopada, Jedności, Daniłowskiego
 tzw. Alcatraz – osiedle przy ul. 11 Listopada, Rozjazdowa
 os. im. Mariana Maliny (Walcownia)
 Kamionka – rejon cmentarza przy ul. gen. W. Andersa

 os. Kalinowa, w tym tzw. Nowe Osiedle
 Pastwiska (ul. Traugutta od rogu z Kalinową do rogu z Leopolda Okulickiego)
 Upadowa płn. część ul. Leopolda Okulickiego

Historia
Miejscowość powstała w I połowie XVIII w., pierwotnie jako południowo-zachodni przysiółek Klimontowa. Z czasem zaczął się rozwijać w oparciu nie tylko o funkcje rolnicze, ale także górnicze. Na początku XIX w. powstała tu odkrywkowa kopalnia węgla (teren w rejonie działek, domu parafialnego i ul. Andersa), a także kopalnia glinki na północ od ul. Daniłowskiego. Kopalnia glinki związana była natomiast z hutą cynku, zamkniętą w II połowie XIX wieku, ale której budynek przetrwał do połowy XX wieku.

Na początku XX wieku powstała walcownia Renarda, a przy niej jedno z najlepiej zachowanych dziś osiedli patronackich w Zagłębiu Dąbrowskim – Walcownia. Do początków XX wieku zabudowany został rejon przy ulicach: Daniłowskiego, 11 Listopada, Jedności. Powstają liczne kolonie robotnicze. W latach 50. XX wieku powstawało osiedle przy ulicy Jodłowej i Wrzosowej. Od lat 70. XX wieku rozbudowywał się rejon ul. Kalinowej. Rozbudowa osiedla trwała tu do lat. 90. XX wieku. Nowe bloki powstały także w latach 70. i 80. na Walcowni, a w 80. i 90. XX wieku w centrum Dańdówki (m.in. tzw. Alcatraz). W latach 90. XX wieku wybudowano także nowe osiedle mieszkaniowe w ciągu ul. Wojska Polskiego, zagospodarowując konstrukcje niedokończonych wieżowców biurowych dawnej Huty Cedler.
Huta Cedler jest w dzielnicy jednym z największych pracodawców.
 1952, 15 stycznia – uruchomienie pierwszego połączenia tramwajowego ze Śródmieściem Sosnowca
W latach 60-70. XX wieku powstawały nowe zakłady pomiędzy ul. Niwecką a Wojska Polskiego – m.in. zakłady mleczarskie (obecnie Jogser), baza SPBP i inne. Przy ulicy Jedności na "starej" Dańdówce powstała tzw. fabryka domów, której pozostałości są widoczne także współcześnie.
W latach 90. na terenach starszej eksploatacji górniczej oraz upadłej tzw. fabryki domów przy ul. Jedności zorganizowana została nowa przestrzeń gospodarcza Dańdówki (Bitron, Nadwozia Partner, Plastic Components and Fuel Systems, Process Electronic, Caterpillar, Geiger Technik).

Ważnym punktem na mapie dzielnicy i miasta stał się również nowoczesny Wydział Farmacji Śląskiego Uniwersytetu Medycznego.
Aktywizowany jest także obszar na lewym brzegu Bobrka w rejonie tzw. Upadowej wybudowano w 2012 r. całkiem nową drogę do terenów inwestycyjnych na obszarze dawnej kopalni piasku (ul. Kujawska i jej przedłużenie).

Has anyone with Eastlink broadband service ever figured out how to get them to turn off the filter they have in place on outbound Port 25 (SMTP) traffic? There was no filter in place on our ISN-branded Eastlink-provided broadband, so it must be possible.
Written March 6, 2008 at 9:01 p.m.
I argued with them over this for a long time… They started blocking it after one of those mass email worms were circulating. They said it was only going to be temporary, but that was about 3 years ago. I moved and when I got hooked back up again, it started working again for me. After a week or so, it stopped again. The only way I found around it is to get their business service.
Do they support SMTP over SSL? That's usually port 465; you might try that.
A lot of mail services (.mac for one) are providing smtp on alternate ports as well as ssl on prt 465. Take a look in their FAQ. I guess they realized that most ISP now block 25.
Thank you for your email. We are not blocking port 25. However, we do not allow residential customers to run their own email servers. If you must run a email server, I would suggest a business account.
Clearly they are blocking port 25. And I don't actually want to "run my own email server" — I want to connect to my corporate email server.
In Mail.app, I simply change the port for outgoing mail to 587. And I'm in business.
This change will help out when on hotel networks or other public networks that block port 25.

In close-knit communities things rarely stay buried, even as time continues to move forward at its own, steady pace. This sentence fits the story found within Gilly Macmillan's latest book, I Know You Know, quite well, and for good reason. After all, despite being a crime novel first and foremost, it is also a tale about a small neighbourhood and the secrets it's hid.
On a sweltering summer day in 1996, three ten to eleven year-old boys took to the streets, gardens, alleyways and play areas of their far from prosperous Bristol estate. That is, all of the interesting areas that surrounded the several towers that made up their not-so-well-off English neighbourhood. Three went out to play, and the events that followed led to only one ever being able to come home. It's the mystery surrounding what happened to the other two boys – Charlie Paige and Scott Ashby – that acts as the central focus of I Know You Know.
Like a lot of crime-based thrillers, this particular novel is told from different vantage points and jumps back and forth between two separate time periods: the present day and, of course, 1996. It does so through the eyes of its main characters, those being Charlie's mom Jessy, Detective Inspector John Fletcher (who found the boys) and Cody Swift, the friend who survived that terrible day. However, things aren't told in the way that we've become accustomed to, as Cody's side of the story is presented in podcast form. That is, the written representation of several recorded episodes. Said podcast is named It's Time to Tell, and is set up as a true crime investigation show. Through it, Cody is looking back at his own past, in an attempt to find new information about that summer's terrible events. He's doing so because he feels that the man who took the fall for the murders was innocent, though the cops vehemently disagree.
What results from this set up, and these individual characters, is a story of love, loss, pain and regret, not to mention one of secrets and forgotten memories. Although Jessy has moved on, she's still haunted by the loss of her son, and spiraled out of control afterwards. The same is true of Cody Swift, who is still haunted by the loss of his two best friends and says that he feels regret for surviving based on an unexpected grounding. Then, there's John Fletcher, the cop who solved it all and created some internal drama while doing so.
At the heart of this novel lays an interesting mystery, and the questions it created kept me reading, with the hope that the answers would be of substance. That didn't end up being the case, though, because despite a solid mystery, I Know You Know falls apart near its end. The conclusion and its reveals don't feel cohesive, nor do they feel like they were given enough thought. In truth, the word 'rushed' comes to mind, though I hate using it here as it feels arrogant and dismissive. I was left disappointed, though, as I was hoping for more.
The characters, themselves, are relatively interesting but not very memorable in the grand scheme of things. Jessy Paige is a haunted woman who's made a lot of mistakes in her life, and she's finally been able to move on thanks to a new husband and daughter. Meanwhile, Cody Swift is a very pushy investigator who will almost stop at nothing to get his answers. The past being brought back to life after so many years also brings errors to light, and makes you question police tactics, especially when they involve people who are on the fringes of society, be it due to poverty or mental illness. Or both, for that matter.
My problem with these characters is that they all end up being quite stereotypical. There's the questionable mom, who lived on benefits and maybe could've taken better care of her child, the former friend who feels guilty about what happened, and a cop with questionable morals and personal ethics. Of course, they also interact with some other both shady and seemingly innocent characters, who help flesh out what is, overall, a half-decent but unspectacular story.
I Know You Know is the fourth novel from British writer, Gilly Macmillan, but was only the second one that I'd read. Last spring, I borrowed The Perfect Girl from my local library after being intrigued by its title and premise, and enjoyed it. It wasn't great, but it was pretty good and kept me interested, even if some parts were predictable. The same was partially true of this particular novel. It's half-decent, but nothing great, and while its writing is fine, it doesn't stand out as being great either.
In all honesty, I went into this review with intrigue and excitement. I wanted to like this book a lot, and to be able to wholly recommend it. Great thrillers are hard to come by, and I thought that the premise behind this one had potential. In the end, though, I can't give I Know You Know a hearty recommendation, or praise it like I wanted to. It starts off pretty well, and has its moments, but ends up being mediocre.
**This review is based on a copy of the novel that we were provided by its publisher.**

Saranna's Story, Part 1: Pregnancy Loss - Will There Be Joy Again?
October 18, 2018 Merriah Fairchild
by Brita Johnson
Photo credit: Brita Johnson
For Saranna, family was something that didn't come easily. At 8 weeks old, she made the long journey from an orphanage in Calcutta to an adoptive family in Oregon. Once here, she worked to overcome serious medical conditions, while contending with difficult dynamics within her adoptive family that would leave her estranged from her parents as an adult. When she and her husband Frank married in 2007, they were eager to start a family. "It was like the puzzle pieces were all in place, and we could start to make our dreams of having a family of our own come true," says Saranna.
As hopeful as the prospect of building their family was, this hopefulness was tempered by the challenges they encountered in becoming pregnant. It took support from members of their church community to puzzle through the maze of the medical system, then a panoply of medical and alternative interventions, to finally get pregnant in the early spring of 2012.
As Saranna and Frank celebrated the joy and anticipation of her pregnancy, Saranna was also careful to follow her doctor's guidance to a T, with special attention to managing the impacts that the pregnancy had on her ongoing medical conditions. It took a few months, Saranna says, to get back to "her normal." And then, when she did, things went quietly sideways.
In week 19 of her pregnancy, things started to feel "off." She shook it off, convincing herself that it could be anything, that it certainly wasn't something serious. "I didn't listen to my intuition," she now says. On a late Friday afternoon, as she headed out on a round of errands to stock the nursery, her water broke.
She and Frank rushed to the hospital, where she would learn, in the words of the attending doctor, "you're perfectly healthy...but your pregnancy isn't." There was no way to save the tiny being inside of her. In a swirl of shock, grief, medical decisions to be made, and hospital paperwork, she spent a sleepless night trying to come to terms with the procedure scheduled for the next morning that would end her pregnancy.
"I felt these mama instincts to 'keep my baby safe, here in this bed,'" Saranna says, describing the irrational desire she felt for time to stand still, for the night not to end. The early hours of the morning brought a peace and a readiness to let her baby go. When the procedure had been done, she could finally learn whether the baby had been a boy or a girl; the magnitude of the loss sunk in when Frank said, "it was a little boy." Their son, Spencer.
Bundled out of the hospital, without ceremony, she and Frank were sent home to grieve and figure out how to go forward. The next day was Father's Day, and the seasons that followed were seasons of numbness for Saranna. She put her grief on hold, going through the motions of daily life, marriage, community, taking care of everyone but herself.
"Grief is a lonely place," Saranna says, looking back on that time as a season of missed connections. She and Frank grieved their loss separately; she didn't have a relationship with her parents that provided warmth and support; and her grief isolated her from the church community that had been a pillar of strength for them.
As she sought to understand the medical explanation for what had happened, Saranna also sought out local resources to support her grieving process, but, she says, "the support groups I found didn't feel welcoming to me, as a person of color with an obvious disability." She spent hours combing the internet for articles and stories that would validate her experience. She found some small rituals that helped her to cope. The warmth and loyalty of their dog, Mocha, was a sanity-saver and a source of comfort.
Despite the emotional numbness she felt, and perhaps based on an inborn determination that comes from surviving her own hard beginnings, Saranna was eager to try for another pregnancy as soon as she was medically cleared to do so. There wasn't really a question of emotional readiness for her: "I wanted a different outcome and the only way to have a different outcome is to do it again," she says, "I just got back on that horse."
When she and Frank did get the go ahead to try for another pregnancy, she got pregnant right away, to everyone's delight and to her own disbelief. She laughs a little now, remembering the doctor who said, "if you get five positive pregnancy tests, I think you're pregnant."
There's no such thing as a simple happy ending, and though sweetly humorous, the anecdote above is also revelatory of the complexity of pregnancy, and parenting, after loss: fear of losing her second baby rimmed her emotional experience of the pregnancy; not a day goes by that she doesn't miss the son she never knew; some of the cloud of numbness she felt in 2012 has only recently started to lift.
But you only have to meet Saranna to sense the joy that she finds in her growing family. In the second installation of Saranna's story, Bridgetown Baby joins the team that has supported Saranna and Frank through the challenge and redemption of continuing to build their family - read more on Bridgetown Baby's blog, coming soon.
October is National Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness month. We stand with the families, in our Bridgetown Baby community and around the world, who have lost a child - and we want you to know that you are not alone. If you are seeking support as you navigate this particular grief, we invite you to start with a short list of resources, on our blog.

He loves a bit of craic, especially with his pals in Bremeny School for Dogs. Once he arrives into Daycare, he doesn't stop playing until he crashes on the couch later that evening.
Louie loves to go for walks and his humans need to be careful not to mention the "W" word in his company unless a walk is on the cards. He loves to splash about in the water and has a special grá for sticks. However he has still to master the finer art of his breed – he's yet not fond of swimming and although he will bound across meadows in pursuit of a thrown stick, he'd rather hunker down and chew on it than bring it back to his humans.
Being a retriever he loves to eat and his favourite foods include chicken, cheese, bacon and carrots (we can't mention this "C" word unless we have some in stock). Louie loves to play tug and his favourite is a game of tag around the sitting room and kitchen. He also loves to sleep with a comfy pillow under his chin, watch rugby on TG4, immerse himself in a nature documentry and he loves ambient electronica. He loves to learn new tricks and is currently learning how to open the fridge door to fetch a beer. His humans now realise that it's a terrible idea for a retriever with an endless appetite to learn the skill of accessing all of the food.
Biba has been with Bremeny School for Dogs since day one and has known and loved the staff since she was a wee puppy!
Biba has so many favourite things that get her tail wagging furiously and have her spinning in circles, but top of the list would have to be long walks on the beach and rolling around in the sand until she is completely covered in it! Biba is a friend to all animals (once she can sniff them), she has been known to make friends with the neighbourhood cats and even a pigeon once! A homing Pigeon got lost and spent a few days in our back garden last year. Biba loved going out into the garden every day and following him around, sniffing him and trying to get him to play with her, unfortunately for Biba, it was a case of unrequited love!
Biba loves her sleep so she isn't a morning doggo but she soon perks up when we drop her to daycare to play with all her friends!
Tebow
Tebow (a.k.a. "Stitch") is technically a Frenchie, but bears a resemblance to a member of the Walrus family. Though born in Wexford, Tebow is a Galway man through and through.
Tebow's personality can be best described as unique. Like his female human, he is very, very stubborn and, like his male human, loves his food. Little T has many loves… his teddy bears are his life. They are named after politicians… we have Leo (Varadkar), Donald (Trump), Macron, Borris (Johnson) and, unfortunately Nicola (Sturgeon) who succumbed to injuries shortly after meeting Tebow . Tebow is also a huge fan of the snow and loves bouncing around in it. He loves Bremeny School for Dogs, all his friends there and the staff, but has a huge soft spot for his Fairy Dog-Mother Paula and his girlfriend Lexie Shepard. His dislikes include… cameras, tin foil , frying pans, exercise, getting up early, the postman (we agree… he brings bills!) and getting collected too early from Bremeny School for Dogs.
The funniest (/boldest) thing Tebow has done as a puppy was redecorating his granny's house by tearing up one of the carpets to expose the natural floor boards. What a visionary – Dermot Bannon, watch out!
Kobi (a.k.a. "Kobster", "Kobus Maximus" or "Mr. Fluffy Bottom") is the apple of our eye. He is good-looking and he knows it – and we love him for it.
He puts a smile on our face every day with his antics but he is so mannerly at the same time thanks to Paula, Fraser and Denise. The real tester of this has been the introduction of two Bengal Kittens to our family. Something everyone thought would be a disaster, but he is so gentle with them, (he actually thinks they are his babies 🙈) all from his interactions at Bremeny School for Dogs.
Bobby met his Bremeny family when he was just a puppy and fell in love with them from day one. The wagging tail and face-licking that happened on that first day still happens with just as much enthusiasm today – which tells its own story
Bobby was christened "Crazy Bobby" by his Bremeny family and he never fails to live up to it (apart from when he's asleep ). He loves playing with other dogs and the bigger the better… hence the name ! He loves chasing/retrieving balls with our neighbours dog and regularly can be seen giving the dog the run-around with the ball in his mouth .
He looooves lap-time and never misses the opportunity to snuggle up. He's currently playing big "brother" to our 10 month old baby boy and Bobby's favourite thing is cleaning baby's face after he has had his bottle ! He was and always will be our first baby .
Darcy, or Mr. Darcy as we call him, sometimes has the most adorable personality. He's been with the Bremeny School for Dogs team since he was a very young pup, and quite honestly I think they were a major part of his personality formation.
His most adorable trait is his gratefulness. He thanks you for everything. He can be bold, in that every garden he comes across on his walks, he steals the kid's football. Or when there's a football match on, he's in the middle before I can blink an eye.
This is Kevin (aka Kevin Costner Jr./Bucko/Stinky Winky/Mr. McGoo) and he is a pure bred West Highland Terrier. Kevin is confident, brave, extremely curious, stubborn, full of beans and bright as a button.
He's usually too busy for cuddles, but when he gets tired after a long day causing mischief, he likes a snuggle. He loves playing with all his friends at Bremeny School for Dogs. Kevin's favourite things are running free in wide open spaces, playing with other doggies or humans and barking!
