Born and raised on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, Dr. Karen Tyndall wanted to be a veterinarian for as long as she can remember. She received her undergraduate degree in Biology from St. Andrew's Presbyterian College (now St. Andrew's University), and went on to earn to her Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine degree from North Carolina State College of Veterinary Medicine in 1998. In 2009, Dr. Tyndall joined the team at Oakhurst Veterinary Hospital.

These valuable lessons and the bonds she developed with her own pets encouraged her to pursue a career in veterinary medicine. Dr. Donovan feels that helping other pet owners maintain and cherish the irreplaceable bonds they have with their pets is a vital part of her veterinary ideology. In addition, Dr. Donovan volunteers her time to teach pet C.P.R. training to first responder students and anesthesia at S.P.C. to veterinary technology students.

The treasure was found at a cellar marked 'A' in the sprawling temple complex in the city, showed that it contained gold chains, golden beads, a large number of silver and brass platters, ornaments, a stone-studded crown and glittering gold coated parasols and may other objects of great intrinsic and antique value, sources said.
The magnificent temple, built in 18th century by King of erstwhile Travancore princely state Marthanda Varma, is run by a trust under the control of the royal family. The Supreme Court recently appointed a seven-member panel, comprising two former judges of Kerala High Court as observers, to draw up a list of valuable articles stashed away in the cellars, said to have been remaining locked up for long.
The observers had made it clear that their job was not to assess the value of the articles in money terms but to draw up an inventory and submit it to the apex court. However, temple sources, present during the exercise, indicated that the precious objects listed in the first days alone would run into at least Rs 20,000 crores in the present market rates.
The cellars were ordered to be opened by the apex court to prepare an inventory while considering a private petition.

When someone becomes a parent, his or her entire life will change. The responsibility that goes along with caring for a child can lead many people to have uncertainties about what they should be doing to make sure that their child is as safe as possible.
Many parents have difficulty with child-safety seats. These seats protect their children in the event of a motor vehicle accident. Because of the essential safety benefits that they provide, there are several steps that must be followed in order to ensure safety.
Seats must be properly attached to vehicles, or they may lose or lessen their effectiveness. Additionally, as children age, different seats must be used to provide optimal protection from injury.
National Child Safety Week presents a great time for parents to review some of the ways to properly install and use child-safety seats. The platform also presents an opportunity to see where parents may improve.
A study by the American Journal of Preventative Medicine examined child-safety seat use. The journal studied accident data to determine if child seats were being properly used, and if the seats prevented injury.
The study determined that as children increased in age, it was less likely that they would be in a child-safety seat. For example, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued guidelines that call for children to remain in seats until age 8, or until they reach 4 feet, 9 inches tall. However, the study determined that only two percent of children over the age of 7 were in child-safety seats.
An additional item of concern in the study is that many children are riding in the front seat of vehicles. As children get older, more parents allow them to ride in the front seat. This is a particularly dangerous place for a child should an accident occur.

Hello!! I hope all of you are well… okay so, last week I made a video geared towards the youth but really for everyone… I posted it to my YouTube channel (jamiedreamsbig) and I wanted to share it with you. It's one of those type of pull your friend on the side conversations about self worth and I REALLY think this conversation needs to be opened up for discussion. I have literally been disgusted just thinking about the lack of self worth people are walking around with… And the things people do to gain attention and "love" not fully understanding that some attention just isn't worth having and the type of things love requires would never include belittling yourself for someone's enjoyment. Please watch, share, and subscribe to my YouTube channel.
So… What do YOU think? To comment click the title and that will take you to a page with this post alone. From there just scroll to the bottom and comment!

West of Ireland 1926
Co Sligo GC, Rosses Point, August 11-13, 1926
The Irish Independent of Saturday, August 14, 1926, reported:
J.L. Crabbe (Foxrock) put up some sensational golf when beating W. G. McConnell (Dun Laoghaire) (holder) in the final of theWest of Ireland Championship at Rosses Point yesterday. These players met in the final stage of the Western title in 1924, and the victory gained by Crabbe on that occasion was confirmed yesterday.
The morning round produced golf which would not credit amateurs in Ireland as being capable of. Even allowing that the bogey of the course is not an exceptionally difficult one, the fact of such bogey being beaten by seven strokes must he recorded as a remarkable performance.
Crabbe had a card of 72 for tho first half of the 36 holes, while McConnell, with four strokes worse, was also well under the par score.
Crabbe's card was as follows:—
Out —4 4 3 3 4 4 4 3 5—34
Home —3 5 4 4 4 5 4 4 5—38 — 72
Though Crabbe and McConnell have met in many competitions, the latter has yet to obtain a victory over the Foxrock man, and the moral effect of not having done so may, to a certain extent, have affected McConnll's play in their latest encounter. Both players lived up to their reputations as match fighters, and the final score is no criterion, as it was only in the concluding stages that McConnell fell away. In addition to playing splendid golf, Crabbe had Dame Fortune on his side. Honours wore even for the first nine holes, with the score 31 against 35 in favour of Crabbe. McConnell became one down for the first time at the 11th, and from that on he was unable to come on terms.
McConnell had sheer bad luck on the 15th, 24th and 27th greens. In ordinary circumstances, he would have holed all three putts but on this occasion, it was not to be. Crabbe commenced the last round in a strong position, as he was two up. A three at the 19th increased his lead, but McConnell won the hole back at the 20th. The positions were relatively the same until the turn, when McConnell, having two putts, failed to obtain a half. From that on Crabbe was master of the situation, and though M'Conuell won the 28th with a splendid two he eventually passed out on the 32nd green beaten by 5 and 4.

17 amazing Tulsans we sadly lost in 2017
Each January, TulsaPeople remembers some of those we have lost in the past year — individuals who made the city great with their talent, passion or philanthropy.
Tommy Allsup
Nov. 24, 1931-Jan. 11, 2017
Guitarist and music producer
An Oklahoma Music Hall of Fame inductee and Grammy Award winner, he was considered a renaissance musical genius, influencer and mentor who played with or produced the work of other greats, including Buddy Holly, Bob Wills, Willie Nelson and Hank Thompson.
"Not many musicians have been involved in major events in two different musical genres. But as the Buddy Holly sideman who gave up his airplane seat to Ritchie Valens as well as the producer of Bob Wills' famous last recordings, Tommy Allsup left his lasting footprint on both rock 'n' roll and Western swing."
— John Wooley, music historian
Stephen Cranford
Oct. 16, 1942-Dec. 6, 2016
Former executive director, Tulsa Metropolitan Ministry
Considered a pillar of Tulsa's interfaith community, he was pastor, teacher, mentor and civil rights advocate. A denominational executive for the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), and a trustee emeritus of Phillips Theological Seminary, he served on the National and World Council of Churches, and as a member of the Oklahoma Conference for Community and Justice and Tulsa Interfaith Alliance.
"Stephen Cranford was a great statesman of interfaith work. He combined perfectly the clear head and the warm heart. Quiet and courageous, Stephen lived as if the truth were true."
— Keith O. McArtor, president of Tulsa Metropolitan Ministry
Jay Cronley
Nov. 9, 1943-Feb. 26, 2017
Journalist, novelist and humorist
An inductee into the Oklahoma Journalism Hall of Fame and Oklahoma Writers Hall of Fame, the longtime columnist for both the Tulsa World and the Tulsa Tribune provided smiles and laughter to Tulsans with his quirky take on everyday life. He wrote eight novels, several of which were adapted into films, including "Funny Farm," "Good Vibes," "Hold Up" and "Cheap Shot."
"Every newsroom needs one, and probably only one, Jay Cronley. Something about his personality would draw people to try and win his approval. I was lucky enough to have my desk near his for more than a year, which meant every day there would be some argument about a TV show, or a movie, or a basketball game. I wanted to work at the Tulsa World my whole life, and I'm thankful I'll always be able to say that I worked with Jay."
— Dylan Goforth, editor in chief, The Frontier
Millard House
Jan. 28, 1944-Sept. 3, 2017
Retired associate superintendent, Tulsa Public Schools; president, Tulsa Urban League
In 1970, as the school system's first director of human relations, the former social studies teacher was tasked with responding to the federal government's order to racially integrate Tulsa's schools. It was a massive, multi-year undertaking that involved moving both teachers and students. As associate superintendent, he continued the effort by recruiting minority teachers and staff, then retired to head the Tulsa Urban League.
" … His desire was to see our education system achieve the excellence he believed possible with change and true equality. He often stated that until every student in every school in the city of Tulsa was considered … real progress will not be made."
— Jennettie Marshall, Tulsa Public Schools Board of Education member and longtime friend
Carol "Jerri" Jones
April 16, 1937-Jan. 11, 2017
Community leader
Her involvement in civic and nonprofit work covered every aspect of Tulsa. Most notably, she served as the first female president of All Souls Unitarian Church and as vice president of Planned Parenthood. She was a founding member of the Tulsa chapter of Association for Women in Communications, and worked with Tulsa Junior League, Leadership Tulsa and as a docent for Philbrook and Gilcrease museums. But she also saw the world, visiting all seven continents and more than 100 countries.
"Jerri was more than a sister-in-law. I was lucky to know her for more than 50 years. A true artist in ceramics and the culinary arts, she was also a consummate volunteer; a deep, compassionate friend; an adventuresome traveler; and a source of laughter and light. I will miss her."
— Georgia Snoke, sister-in-law
Olivia Jones
Jan. 10, 1941-June 1, 2017
Community leader and entrepreneur
The wife of U.S. Rep and Ambassador to Mexico James R. Jones, she carved her own path. A graduate of Harvard Law School, she was a partner in her husband's political career. She worked as a law clerk and ran two businesses. She served on several boards and co-authored a book on English ceramics. Tulsans recall her fascinating stories, her sense of style and her practicality, from doing repairs on their home (the old Skelly Mansion) to riding her lawnmower to the nearby service station.
"Olivia dabbled in nothing. If a subject seemed interesting, she researched it exhaustively and became an expert in that subject … from residential reconstruction to knitting, needlepoint and sewing, to English and Chinese pottery and ceramics. She was a true scholar and renaissance woman. Alas, her last subject of intensive study was multiple myeloma, to which she ultimately succumbed."
— Jim Kincaid Sr., longtime friend

Phyllis Radcliffe
Aug. 13, 1926-July 18, 2017
Former vice president, First National Bank; civic leader
Beloved by decades of Tulsa's younger professional women for her mentorship and encouragement, she used her public relations skills to promote the Tulsa Area United Way, the Red Cross and American Diabetes Association. She was president of Tulsa Press Club and was honored with a Saidie Lifetime Achievement award by the Tulsa chapter of the Association for Women in Communications. She was named Advertising Executive of the Year by the American Advertising Federation.
"Phyllis was not only a trailblazer for women in leadership, but an icon in the business community as a whole, leaving a significant imprint on the Tulsa area. She taught us through her example the importance of being professional, ethical and giving back to the community. And she did it all with such grace and style."
— Becky Frank, chairwoman and CEO, Schnake Turnbo Frank
Mable Rice
Dec. 31,1933-Oct. 6, 2017
Longtime community leader
She was a woman of firsts: founding the city's first Black Arts Festival — which became Juneteenth — and starting the Oklahoma chapter of the National Association of Sickle Cell Disease. An arts lover, she was a founding member of the Oklahoma Jazz Hall of Fame, the Simon Estes Education Foundation and a member of the Tulsa Arts Commission and Tulsa Performing Arts Center Authority. She helped develop the North Tulsa Heritage Foundation and the Greenwood Cultural Center. Among her numerous honors was the League of Women Voters Pathfinder Award.
"What made Mable and I friends? It was feeling at ease and comfortable in conversation when we first met. Our journey began speaking our true sentiments, sharing our joys, our sorrows; staying out late at night — lots of fun; having the ability to accept one another's weaknesses; recognizing one another's talents. But more importantly, maintaining our love and loyalty for one another for 70 years. I will truly miss my best friend."
— Maxine Horner, former Oklahoma state senator
David Sawyer
July 3, 1945-Aug. 20, 2017
Former superintendent, Tulsa Public Schools
He spent 47 years in public education, serving five school districts across the country as superintendent. During his time in Tulsa (2000-2006) he was noted for his ability to listen to other viewpoints, especially those of the children he served. Navigating TPS through tough financial times, his proudest achievement was the implementation of a new district staffing plan, which included increases in art, music and physical education offerings. Through all this, he took time for his own arts education, learning and playing the banjo at church and school events.
"Dr. Sawyer's superintendency had a tremendous impact on Tulsa Public Schools and the community. He led with his heart and keen instincts for what was 'best' for all students and staff. He never diverted from challenging situations or policies that hindered the district from becoming the leading school district in the state of Oklahoma."
— Oliver Wallace, director of student and family advocacy, Tulsa Public Schools
Steadman Upham
April 4, 1949- July 30, 2017
President emeritus, the University of Tulsa
Affectionately known as "Uncle Stead" by students, the anthropologist-turned-university-president served two terms at TU (2004-2012) and (2012-2016), during which the institution grew significantly on all fronts. From housing to new classroom buildings, from community service to cutting-edge programs, campus life and a diverse student body, he helped transform a small university into a one of the top 50 private universities in the country.
"Stead was always interested in not only making TU a great university but also making Tulsa a great city. He made connections. He saw opportunities. He sought ways to make everything he touched better through compassion and competition. The university lost a visionary leader when my predecessor passed, and the city lost an unwavering advocate."
— Dr. Gerard P. Clancy, president, the University of Tulsa
Rev. John Wolf
Sept. 6, 1925-Sept. 19, 2017
Former longtime minister, All Souls Unitarian Church
An outspoken, impassioned voice for personal and civil rights, he spoke for the needs of education, the arts, racial equality and the rights of women and the LGBT community. In 1965, he led a march through downtown Tulsa in response to the one in Selma, Alabama. He served All Souls for 35 years before becoming minister emeritus and was named to TulsaPeople's 100 Tulsans Who Made a Difference during the city's centennial year.
"Dr. Wolf was both a theologian and a preacher, who loved church but mistrusted religion. He rebelled against human indifference to other humans and exemplified a socially and politically engaged faith. He built the largest Unitarian Universalist church in North America here in Tulsa, Oklahoma."
— Rev. Marlin Lavanhar, senior minister, All Souls
Lee Woodward
Sept. 22, 1931-June 19, 2017
Longtime weather broadcaster, KOTV
A seasoned broadcaster, Woodward filled a variety of roles for KOTV. He and his droll puppet sidekick, Lionel, first appeared on one of the station's children's shows. When it ended, demand was so great for the pair, Woodward brought him back to help announce the weather. Their banter helped KOTV dominate the evening news ratings during the 1960s and '70s. An arts lover, Woodward was a talented painter, sculptor and tenor. He and Lionel emceed more than 26 children's benefit concerts for Tulsa Public Schools.
"Lee Woodward never turned down anybody for a chat, and with King Lionel, a friendly greeting, somehow making a frozen-faced puppet sound as if it were smiling. He loved his own children, of course. He connected with others only with wires in a box and pictures that flew through the air."
— Clayton Vaughn, longtime KOTV newsman and friend
Yevgeny Yevtushenko
July 18, 1933-April 1, 2017
Internationally recognized poet
Hailed by some as the greatest poet of his generation, he was a former Soviet dissident and human rights advocate who was known for his fearless criticism of his country's repressive regime. His inspirational voice landed him on the cover of Time Magazine in 1962. The country changed, and from 1989-1991 he served in the Soviet Parliament. After some time teaching in New York, he moved to Tulsa in 1992, where he spent 25 years as a literature professor at the University of Tulsa.
"Yevgeny Yevtushenko became a literary sensation early in his career as he challenged his country to think critically about Soviet bureaucracy and the horrors of Stalin's regime. Always outspoken and known for his colorful personality, (he was) yet a kind and compassionate friend to orphans and widows."
— Sue Bennett, friend

Jersey Street 1968
When I was a kid taking the old No. 5 bus to Curtis in 1980 I'd pass what I'm pretty sure was this stretch of buildings. On had a tree growing out of it. And then in 1983 or 1984 they were gone.
The long stretch of vacant stores were ripped down, presumably by the city, and replaced with fairly unattractive townhouses. Still, it was a better alternative than letting the stores continue abandoned and present fire and safety hazards to the neighborhood.
I only wonder that the Advance doesn't appear to offer any speculation as to why the stores were abandoned. Port Richmond stayed a viable shopping strip until some years after the Mall opened in New Springville. Stapleton lingered on and still does to a some degree. What caused Jersey Street to suddenly collapse? Perhaps it was the projects? Was it the Jewish working class moving up and away? What, when and how did this happen to such a vibrant neighborhood?
3 comments:
When I was growing up in the 1950's we lived in West Brighton but our synagogue was the "Jersey Street Shul" (Agudath Achim Anshe Chesed) not far from Brighton Ave. By that time, nearly all the Jews had moved away from that part of New Brighton to other neighborhoods. Earlier in the 1900's most of the congregation, including my father's family on Winter Ave., lived nearby. My grandfather was a milk distributor for Borden's and initially made deliveries with horse-drawn wagons.
By the way, the shopping scene on Richmond Ave. (now Port Richmond Ave.) in Port Richmond was already decaying when the mid-island stores (such as Korvette's) and then the mall were built. The prior building of a shopping center (Forest Avenue Shopper's Town) on Forest between Barrett and Decker seemed to start this process. That part of Forest Ave. already had a Sears and Robert Hall.
- The Wasp said...
Great information, thank you. I grew up on Cebra near Victory. Bnai Jeshrun and Tifreth were closed (or nearly) when I was growing up and I was fascinated by these two empty houses of worship. I only came to learn about the Jewish community of New Brighton over the past couple of years.
I'm believe the Jewish history of the North Shore doesn't get as much attention as it deserves. Perhaps, like the Scandinavians and Germans it's because so many moved off-Island over the past forty years.
I'm just old enough to remember Port Richmond pre-mall and even as a kid knew it had seen better days. As to the Plaza and its environs, I got my first suit at Robert Hall and all my Cub Scout gear in the Penny's lower level.

This evening was much like any other. I sat yawning at the dining table as Mother and my perfect little sister, Libby, discussed the wedding. I stress that this is definitely the wedding, and not just a wedding.
Oh no, Mother has gone out of her way to ensure that this is the social occasion of the year, the best day of her daughter's life. Sixteen whole sides of freshly-smoked, Scottish salmon have been ordered for the wedding breakfast and the Vicar has been ordered not to trip over his words during the service at the expense of her family's reputation – despite his years of experience.
In front of us sat a work of art, a common topic of conversation – the seating plan. I've heard six times this evening alone how Lady Bunty Larinstoff, the highly regarded President of the Lawn Tennis Association can not (NOT) possibly sit within two tables of Melissa Mcorkadale, or quite frankly, the whole day will be a total disaster. I sat dazed, until a shrill voice awoke me.
"And what about you, Sissy?" Libby, my perfect-in-every-way little sister asked smugly. "Have we got a name for your plus-one yet?" she smirked, pointing to the only blank space on the table plan, next to my name. "Who's the lucky guy?"
What happened next, shouldn't have happened, but it did. I don't even know how it happened.
"I HAVE A FIANCÉE!" my mouth blared with the force of an opera singer. This revelation was met with two blank faces, who stared at each other for a moment. The room deathly quiet, my cheeks red with utter shock at what I had just said.
"YOU?" Libby exclaimed. "ENGAGED?"
Hysterical laughter followed from both my mother and my sister for what seemed like forever. Knee-slapping, snorting. Tears ran from Mother's eyes.
"No, no, of course, Sissy!" Libby backtracked, fanning herself with her hand in an attempt to regain composure. "So when will we meet the lucky guy?"
"AT THE WEDDING!" I did it again. Why won't I stop talking?
"Really?" both women asked in unison, still clearly baffled.
"YES. YES. YOU'LL SEE. BECAUSE I AM A CATCH" I attempted to string a sentence together as I swaggered towards the door, leaving the room and slamming the door behind me like a child.
Laughter continued.
It was the day of Libby's wedding, and I was still a notorious singleton in my mid-thirties. I had approximately three hours and twenty eight minutes to find an utterly gorgeous man who I must convince to not only accompany me to a wedding full of people he has never met, but also to propose to me on the spot. What could possibly go wrong?
It was time for the wedding reception, time for my family to meet my mystery man. I had bluffed my way through the service itself by pretending that my gorgeous Prince Charming had popped off to the the bathroom – what horrific timing! But I couldn't avoid the truth for much longer.
As the party walked towards the marquee I spotted a young, awkward-looking man amongst the sea of people. Pale, red-haired, not at all muscular. Not my usual type, but needs must. I ran towards him, abandoning my heels in the process.
I grabbed him by the shoulder and smiled. "ME, YOUR GIRLFR-FIANCEE. WE'RE IN LOVE. CANTEXPLAINANYMOREIMSORRY" He stared back at me with an expression of confusion, shock, and also fear.
Predominantly fear.
As my sister approached me and my new-found beau (if only he knew), I glued a fake smile onto my face and clasped my arms around his body. He let out a small squeak.
"Here he is!" she squealed with excitement, an action I copied without really knowing why. "Lovely to meet you…" she trailed off, waiting for my future husband to reveal his identity as she shook his hand warmly.
"GEOFF…ERY" I screamed, before the poor man beside me had chance to reveal the truth. Libby staggered backwards at the volume of my introduction.
"Actually, my name's M-Matthew" the red-haired stranger next to me stuttered. I froze in shock as he spoke "And I have no idea who this woman is. She's unhinged!" He began to bawl his eyes out, clearly traumatised by this whirlwind romance.
He retreated, slowly.
"THAT'S IT, WALK AWAY. A REAL MAN WOULD RUN!" I rolled my eyes, met with a blank gaze by my sister, who was clearly trying to process what the hell had just happened.

"Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated"
I will try to remember this as I get back into the pace and demands of life with nearly 4 weeks away of travel - the moon was just a sliver when we left and we celebrated the full moon on the beach in France. We covered over 4000 miles to the most Western part of Europe, stumbled upon some stunning places, made many memories, with our happy place being the beach and the freedom of wild camping - living the simple life. Of course with all five of us living out of the motorhome, there were challenging moments - 'the beast' is quite big, but at times can feel quite small - and we simply did not have much room for extra stuff.
After hours of travelling it felt so good to move and although my practice did not look like it does at home, it was a wonderful reminder that just sitting with your emotions and thoughts, the mind starts to get irritable and it manifests as discomfort in the body. Movement is essential for mental stability and joy, even a few simple asanas and breathes at a rest stop made all the difference.
We got into a rhythm of waking up naturally, if lucky our camping spot was close to the sound of the waves, investigating the best surfing spots, looking up at night to the stars, and eating fresh on the BBQ every night. I know it does sound idyllic and certainly was, but there were moments when we wondered on our sanity and needed quite a few deep breaths - getting stuck in a tiny Spanish village and what felt like the whole village coming out to help us try to make a 3 point turn to get out - parking for the night under a sprinkler system and being woken up thinking you were in a bad dream in a car wash, as the sprinklers went off right under the motorhome at 5am. We lived, learned and now look back to laugh! It was also a great lesson for letting go of not having everything we normally 'needed', from a hot power shower, playing a favourite video game or have the toy that was really wanted in that moment. But most importantly it was a time for us to disconnect, practice the art of having less, letting go and allowing some space and observing and appreciating what was front of us - living our yoga.
I am deeply grateful we carved out this precious time to enjoy the simple things, travel is a wonderful reminder of how beautiful and diverse the world is and how fortunate we are to have the choices to explore it. We arrived back to a mixture of emotions, sad our adventure has come to a close for this time, but excited to see our house, our pets, toys forgotten, favourite foods, grass that has grown back and a hot power shower without crocs on - the simple things reminds us to have gratitude for the abundance in our life's.

"Politics is the art of the possible, the attainable -- the art of the next best" (Otto von Bismarck)
by Dave Cunix
How often we forget these words of wisdom! We get so caught up in the fight, so positive that we are right and the other side wrong, that we rule out the possibility of success. We personalize the argument and demonize the other side. Democrats are godless communists. Republicans are racists and/or fascists. And when we don't get 100% of what we wanted, we vilify not only the other side, but even the representatives on our side who have failed to deliver.
Janet Trautwein, the CEO of our organization, spoke at our October meeting. She conducted a Master Class on Politics. She helped us to understand that our legislative goals are long term. We will have successes and failures along the way, but our mission is to work hard to move forward. She explained that friends can be found in the most surprising of places. She reminded us that we may have an agenda, but so does everyone else. Good politics is the merger of many agendas into positive legislation. And, like Spielberg's Lincoln, she discussed the difference between public and private positions, public and very private negotiations. Janet unveiled a picture of the real world and our part in making it better.
Many of us will be in Washington this February for the annual Cap Conference, our opportunity to meet with members of the U.S. House and Senate. Even more of NEOHUA will be in Columbus to meet with members of the Ohio House and Senate. I had an opportunity to talk with Mary Taylor who is both our Lt. Governor and Insurance Commissioner when we were down in Columbus this past April. This is how we affect change.
Janet Trautwein came to Cleveland to tell our members that we are all important, that we can all be part of the solution, that we can all participate in politics - the art of the possible.
Legislative Report
Mark Ruzic
Dear Members,
I am attaching two pieces of legislation for your interest. The first piece is on H.R. 34, the 21st Century Cures Act which has been passed the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate. This bi-partisan effort includes changes to Medicare open enrollment rules. It also includes changes to allow HRA accounts to be used by small businesses to provide health insurance and to assist with out of pocket expenses.
The second piece of legislation is an overview of what Congressman Tom Price will be trying to move forward post Obamacare. I think it will give you a good basic knowledge of where he will try to take us with his new position in the Trump administration.

NAHU Membership Council update
December 2016
This is a very short and important member update
We really wanted to stress one important update in this month. Our staff and Board are working very hard to be a part of or have input in the transition team of our new President Elect Trump. Additionally NAHU just released the following press release below regarding the nomination of Dr. Price and Seema Verma.
Please also relay to your chapters to pay close attention to the Washington updates every Friday for up to the minute news.
Do you have suggestions regarding our work with the Trump transition team and members of Congress on the future plans to reform the ACA that you would like to share with NAHU? We have created a special email address for questions and comments from members to send your thoughts on these topics. Please send your ideas to
NAHU Applauds New Leaders at HHS and CMS
(Washington, D.C.) - Janet Trautwein, CEO of the National Association of Health Underwriters (NAHU), issued the following statement today on President-Elect Donald Trump's recent appointments of Dr. Tom Price as secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS), and Seema Verma as administrator for the Centers of Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS):
"Dr. Price will be an outstanding leader for HHS and we look forward to working with him as the agency works to stabilize a healthcare-funding system that is in crisis. Dr. Price has always actively listened to our ideas to reform the healthcare system and sought our opinion on proposed changes. Based on the tremendous leadership he provided as
chairman of the House Budget Committee and member of the House Ways and Means Committee,
we are confident that Dr. Price will demonstrate that same ability in his new job as HHS secretary.
"Seema Verma's comprehensive understanding of the American healthcare system and commitment to implementing real consumer-driven healthcare make her an ideal choice to lead CMS at this important time. Ms. Verma was one of the architects of the highly successful Healthy Indiana Plan as well as other state Medicaid reform programs. We look forward to working with Ms. Verma on improving Medicare and Medicaid services through practical healthcare reform."

Meet Troels
Troels left his old life with a girlfriend, a comfy apartment and full-time job to take a new direction in life. He started working as a woodworking apprentice and moved in to CPH Village.
From Fyn, Denmark, Troels is a 30 year old furniture apprentice. Naturally, he build all the furniture in his apartment himself.
He also holds a Bachelor in Informatics and Communication and worked with digitizing films at DR before embarking on the furniture career.
He is vegan (most of the time), plays the guitar, cycles, takes photos, does yoga and is passionate about making quality furniture.
Just like Marie Kondo
"I really like to keep it minimal. I want to be thoughtful about my consumption because it gives me less to worry about."
This attitude stimulates him to consider what it is that gives meaning in his life and what makes him happy.
Everything serves a double purpose at his place, and he is more than happy to showcase his container-living hacks that make the most out of a small space.
Compact dreams
"I would like to build my own compact house, maybe on wheels or a container like this? I would love to grow my own vegetables and explore a new way of living."
His dream is to one day start his own furniture company, and his current home serves as a playground for clever solutions.

Reconfig pfsense interface LAGG, how to do without destroying firewall rules
FlashEngineer last edited by
Ok, here's my current setup:
LAGG0 igb2,igb3,igb4,igb5,igb6,igb7
lagg0 10 VLAN
lagg0 20 VLAN
lagg0 70 VLAN
lagg0 90 VLAN
lagg0 100 VLAN
lagg0 110 VLAN
lagg0 130 VLAN
All those are setup in interface assignments.
What I want to do is create 2 LAGG from the single one I have. So I want this:
LAGG0 igb2,igb3,igb4,igb5
LAGG1 igb6,igb7
Then vlan:
lagg0 10 VLAN
lagg1 20 VLAN
lagg1 70 VLAN
lagg1 90 VLAN
lagg1 100 VLAN
lagg1 110 VLAN
lagg1 130 VLAN
So I'm not changing any vlans itself just putting VLAN10 into LAGG0 and rest of vlan into LAGG1
Is the best way doing this, just backing up the config, then manually editing the config to change the LAGG and VLAN assignments, then restoring the config, which forces a reboot and doesn't remove any firewall rules etc?
otherwise I think if I edit the LAGG, it will mess up the whole setup because I think I have to remove the vlans and interface assignments etc.
InQuize last edited by
I have a similar setup.
Basically, rules are tied to interfaces. And interfaces are virtual based on VLANs. So, if you won't remove VLANs, rules should be fine too. You just need to:
- remove igb6, igb7 from the lagg
- create lagg1
- add igb6, igb7 to lagg1
- reassign interface on vlan10 from lagg0 to lagg1
Done. All rules should be untouched. No reboots, not even a downtime.
But certainly perform a config backup prior to changes.

The size and availability of divisions will be based on the respective numbers of teams.
- All clubs will have access to the NSL divisions based on meeting applicable standards and level of play.
- We expect that the majority of NSL teams will compete in the NSL.
- Teams of a higher quality requesting to play in a more regional format or highest level of competition in the Northeast area will have two opportunities.

- SU and NSL will work together to offer additional training opportunities for players and clubs.
Will Seacoast United "take" players from teams to place them on higher teams at the Development Academy level?
- Seacoast United will establish a separate registration system for the Seacoast United– NSL Teams that will be managed and accessed solely by NSL management to ensure there is no 'poaching' or solicitations of players.
- NSL and Seacoast United will support player development and placement based on the needs of the players.

Gas cap off isn't helpful
Dear Tom and Ray:
When my husband and I first got married (18 years ago), I noticed that when his car was low on gas, he would remove the gas cap, saying it would make the gas last longer until he could get to a station. My husband has since stopped doing this, due to my nagging. But is there any truth to this, or is it just some urban legend? —Tina
Tom: He's nuts, Tina. I imagine his thinking (or his father's or grandfather's thinking, more likely) is that getting fuel from the gas tank to the engine is like pouring soda out of a two-liter bottle. And while it glug-glug-glugs out, if you were to punch a hole in the bottom of the bottle with an ice pick, you'd allow more air in, and the soda would pour out more quickly.
Ray: But the gas tank is not a soda bottle. First of all, nothing "pours" out of the gas tank. The gasoline is "pushed" out by an electric pump that sits right at the bottom of the tank.
Tom: And second, the pressure inside the tank is carefully managed by the fuel-tank ventilation system. That's done so that gasoline vapors don't constantly waft out into the atmosphere and make every place on Earth look like Los Angeles.
Ray: In fact, if you drive with your gas cap off, or even loose, your Check Engine light will eventually come on. The computer will conclude that the fuel system can't hold pressure, and will warn you that you need to have the car serviced.
Tom: In the old days, gas caps had pinholes in them and gas was sucked out of the tank by mechanical fuel pumps driven by the engine. So that's probably where this theory originated. Even then, I'm dubious that removing the gas cap would have made any difference. But nowadays, it's absolute bull feathers, Tina. And you were right to hound him until he stopped doing it.

An Honours graduate of the Mackintosh School of Architecture, Glasgow School of Art and the University of Glasgow, Angela practised architecture in Ireland and the UK, to the level of Associate Director, taught at University College Dublin, and wrote about design for interiors magazines.
At the age of 6 or 7, with a passion for reading, Angela thought it likely she would become a writer someday; in her 30's she realised, for this to happen, she would also have to start.
She took creative writing classes at the Irish Writers' Centre in Dublin, in 2007 — later, focusing on poetry under the tutelage of Nuala Ni Dhomhnaill — and works primarily in short fiction and poetry.
Her writing is published in literary journals and anthologies, in Ireland, the UK and internationally, including Prelude, Aesthetica Magazine, The London Magazine, Mslexia, Abridged, Bare Fiction, Banshee, The Pickled Body and more— read examples of Angela's poetry and short fiction — and has steadily been building a reputation with success in a number of Irish & UK literary competitions.
Three times short-listed for the Patrick Kavanagh Poetry Award, in 2013, her debut collection won the Cork Literary Review Poetry Manuscript Competition, judged by Joseph Woods, poet and former Director of Poetry Ireland.
In 2014 she was selected for the Poetry Ireland Introductions series, short-listed for the Listowel Writers' Week Single Poem Award and the Cúirt New Writing Showcase, a finalist in the Mslexia Poetry Competition, judged by Wendy Cope, a runner up in the Over the Edge New Writer of the Year and winner of the Allingham Poetry Prize.
Her debut collection, How to Lose Your Home & Save Your Life, was published by Bradshaw Books, November 2014.
Angela has read at literary events around the country, including the Irish Writers' Centre, Over The Edge, Ó Bhéal, Double Shot, The Ash Sessions, Culture Night, West Cork Literary Festival, Dublin Writers' Festival, Cork Spring Poetry Festival, Dromineer Literary Festival, Cúirt International Festival of Literature and Dublin Book Festival. Her poetry has been broadcast on RTE Radio One's Arena arts programme.
In 2016, she was a winner in The London Magazine Poetry Competition, a runner-up in the Trócaire Poetry Ireland Poetry Competition, commended in the Hippocrates International Poetry Award, and shortlisted in the Oxford Brookes International Poetry Competition and Aesthetica Magazine Creative Writing Award. She was also nominated for a Pushcart Prize and read at Dublin Castle for Poetry Ireland on Culture Night.
Angela is a contributor to the Looking at the Stars anthology, launched in November 2016, targeting the increasing problem of homelessness in Ireland and raising funds for the Rough Sleepers Team at the Dublin Simon Community.
In 2017, she was joint runner up in the Trócaire Poetry Ireland Poetry Competition, and Highly Commended in The Bristol Poetry Prize and iYeats International Poetry Competition. Angela was awarded a residency at Cill Rialaig by Listowel Writers' Week and read at the Writers' Salon during the festival in June.
In 2018, she was shortlisted in The Poetry Business International Poetry Pamphlet and Book Competition and won The Laureate's Prize for a Single Poem in the same competition, chosen by UK Poet Laureate Dame Professor Carol Ann Duffy.

With 20 years experience as a barrister, Louise has extensive expertise in environment, planning and local government law, real property and equitable land claims, strata and community title law and building & construction disputes. She has a detailed knowledge of the BCA and all aspects of the certification of buildings under the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 (NSW) particularly with respect to Fire Safety in new and existing residential and commercial buildings. She has acted for a number of Owners Corporations in the Land and Environment Court facing enforcement action, including contempt of court proceedings for fire safety and other defects in residential flat buildings and commercial strata title buildings. For example see Council of the City of Sydney v Owners SP 18820 [2017] NSWLEC 81. Her working knowledge of current legislative provisions governing strata title buildings is extensive.
She has acted for and against local councils, farmers, architects, developers, public interest groups, private certifiers and owners corporations and appeared in leading cases in the High Court of Australia and other superior Courts and Tribunals, which have established important legal principles that are currently applied and cited regularly across all Australian jurisdictions: see Heavens Door P/L v Hillpalm P/L and Wilkie v Blacktown City Council & Ors.
Louise is valued by solicitors who regularly brief her for possessing a strong practical approach to problem solving within a solid legal framework of protecting and advancing her clients' rights whilst recognising the potential pitfalls of any given litigation scenario.
Her experience as a barrister is complemented by a two year stint as in-house counsel at the City of Sydney, conducting significant litigation, see City of Sydney cases. The particular focus was on the enforcement of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 (NSW) and related environment protection and local government legislation, and providing complex legal advice to the Council in all aspects of local government and planning law and real property issues.
Louise has maintained a wide ranging interest in environmental advocacy and issues throughout her 25 year career as a lawyer and barrister and has given pro bono advice in many public interest matters. For example, in 2010 briefed by the EDO (NSW) through the SI Public Solicitor's Office, Landowners Advocacy and Legal Support Unit, she travelled to the Solomon Islands to advise the Kolombangara Island Biodiversity Conservation Association, in the Western Province, concerning alleged unlawful logging of the unique 'cloud forests' on their island.
Louise has widespread training and experience in mediation and alternative dispute resolution. She is the author of Crown Lands and Protected Areas in The Environmental Law Handbook – Planning & Land Use in New South Wales (6th Edition, 2015), published by Thomson Reuters and is a regular speaker, delivering presentations and papers on a broad range of substantive and procedural law issues.
