Tom Morley emailed around St Patrick's Day: "Marc, Our Chattanooga - based band Stringer's Ridge played a concert on St. Patrick's Day at the John C. Campbell Folk School in Brasstown, NC. (I am there on the faculty at the famous folk arts school usually once a year teaching beginning or intermediate Irish Fiddle.) We had a wonderful crowd and it was a great way to spend the best Irish day of the year! I am enclosing several photos of us at the historic Keith House where we put on the concert. (Tom Morley - fiddle, Fran Morley - bodhran, Bryant Haynes - guitar) Thanks for all you do to promote Irish trad music!" STRINGER'S RIDGE Marilyn S. Hansen sent a photo about Easter Rising Band: "14 seminarians got together years ago in St. Louis and developed an Irish band. Most of them are married now. They play at each other's weddings, but they also have regular gigs. The interesting part is how their kids take part… This is last year‘s celebration. I was out of town this year celebrating my sister's birthday the day before St. Patrick's Day. Thought I'd send you last year's photo. I'll send you a few that they've sent to me for this year. EASTER RISING BAND Pete Watson emailed St Pat's photos: "Hi Marc, The Bookends had a fabulous time playing a number of shows throughout Ontario around St. Patrick's Day.Attached is a photo of Miriam (left) and Cait (right) on St. Paddy's Day for our gig at The Rec Room, Toronto, with our regular special guest bodhrán player extraordinaire, Romano Di Nillo.Romano is just back from 4+ years with Come From Away on Broadway and we were so glad to have him with us for these shows.The venue was handing out some "paddywhackery" to attendees and these 3 couldn't resist putting some on!" THE BOOKENDS-PETE WATSON Bruce Cummings, a Piper emailed a photo: "Hey Marc!Just to say how much I enjoy listening to the Celtic music you provide. You asked for pictures from St. Patrick's Day 2023, so here's a couple. I am part of the Lane Fire Brigade Pipes and Drums in Eugene Ore. We had a great weekend piping in the area.Keep up the good work!" BRUCE CUMMINGS PIPER Jim O'Connor of Boston Blackthorne emailed a photo: "Hi Marc -hope you had a fabulous holiday! Boston Blackthorne played 3 nights in Western MA, centered around St Patrick's Day as well as the big parade (the nation's oldest) in Holyoke MA.We played to crowded enthusiastic fans in Northampton MA and Holyoke MA.But perhaps the best gig (and story) was the one that arose spontaneously back in the lobby of our hotel after our St Pat's evening show. The hotel lobby is most frequently empty but this night is was crowded with about 100 boisterous folks from Minnesota, visiting Massachusetts to support a Women's college Hockey team. We were approached by the unofficial spokesperson who pointed at our guitar and fiddle and asked, “Can you really play those?” I answered of course we can, and this is your lucky night!Not only has your party been invaded by musicians, we are an Irish band and this is St Patrick's Day! We proceeded to unpack our instruments and did a set of singalongs like Charlie on the MTA for the Boston connection.Halfway through the set our wives came into the lobby -my wife grumbled to Pete's wife, “This party is going to keep us up all night!”Pete's wife Maureen looked a little closer and exclaimed, “Hey that's Jim and Pete in the center of it all!”They joined the fray, we had the best gig of the year playing for this group of strangers from the Midwest, wonderful folks who doubtless went home with a great tale and the definition of the work “Craic!” JIM OCONNOR  

Holyoke Media, en asociación con WHMP radio, emiten diariamente la Síntesis informativa en español a través del 101.5 FM y en el 1240 / 1400 AM. Esta es la síntesis informativa del lunes 6 de febrero de 2023: - Los funcionarios estadounidenses se han ofrecido a informar a los líderes del Congreso sobre su investigación sobre los documentos clasificados encontrados en la residencia del expresidente Donald Trump en Florida, así como en la casa y la antigua oficina privada del presidente Joe Biden en Delaware, dijeron el domingo personas familiarizadas con el asunto. Una sesión informativa podría llegar tan pronto como esta semana. Pero es posible que no satisfaga las demandas de los legisladores que quieren revisar los documentos tomados no solo de Mar-a-Lago sino también de los lugares que pertenecen a Biden y la casa en Indiana del exvicepresidente Mike Pence. Seis meses después de que los agentes federales realizaran por primera vez un registro sin precedentes en la casa de un expresidente en busca de documentos clasificados, la Casa Blanca enfrenta presiones bipartidistas para compartir lo que encontró con los legisladores que dicen estar preocupados por el daño potencial a la seguridad nacional y las fuentes de inteligencia. Consejos especiales separados están investigando los documentos encontrados en posesión de Trump y Biden. Los funcionarios se negaron a responder la mayoría de las preguntas en público o en privado sobre lo que encontraron, citando las investigaciones criminales en curso y una "evaluación de riesgo" separada del posible daño a las fuentes de inteligencia. FUENTE: AP - Una colaboración entre Enlace de Familias, Neighbor to Neighbor, Nuevo Camino, la Unión de Inquilinos de Western Mass y Nueva Esperanza Inc., está organizando un taller para la comunidad titulado "Conozca sus derechos”. Este es un esfuerzo conjunto para educar a los inquilinos sobre sus derechos como arrendatarios. El taller "Conoce tus Derechos" se llevará a cabo el lunes 6 de febrero de 2023 a las 6:00 pm en Enlace de Familias, ubicado en 299 Main Street, Holyoke MA 01040. Se proporcionarán alimentos, cuidado de niños y servicios de interpretación al español. Los inquilinos del área metropolitana de Springfield están invitados a escuchar directamente de Community Legal Aid, abogados de inquilinos y Mass Fair Housing sobre cuáles son sus derechos. El taller se centrará en los problemas que se han señalado a la atención de las organizaciones a través de sus visitas a las residencias de los inquilinos de puerta en puerta. En las últimas décadas, la vivienda se ha convertido en un negocio rentable mientras que la vida de los inquilinos se ha vuelto cada vez más difícil y la vivienda más insegura. Este taller proporciona un espacio confidencial para inquilinos para compartir sus preocupaciones y hacer preguntas. Para obtener más información, comuníquese con Nuevo Camino al 413-532-9300.

FUENTE: HOLYOKE MEDIA Los funcionarios de la Ciudad de Holyoke están comunicando a los negocios, empresas y organizaciones con respecto a la renovación de licencias de venta y consumo de alcohol anuales y por temporada. Durante el proceso de renovación de 2022, casi una docena de negocios estaban obligados a pagar impuestos atrasados a la ciudad antes de que se les pudiera emitir su licencia 2023. Dijo que las preocupaciones de seguridad pública en varios negocios habían que atenderse a través de las inspecciones de edificios y de incendios. Antes de que la Junta de Licencias emita a cualquier organización, individuo o negocio una licencia de alcohol o renovación, parte del proceso incluye inspecciones y aprobaciones del Departamento de Bomberos y del Departamento de Edificios. La ciudad publicó una lista de 14 propiedades donde se han realizado inspecciones, a través del Departamento de Edificios y las aprobaciones emitidas (la mayoría con condiciones). Estas propiedades todavía tienen elementos pendientes para resolver con el Departamento de Bomberos: 1109 Dwight St. – Jay's Bed and Breakfast 250 Whitney Ave. – Holyoke Elks 2223 Northampton St. — Bamboo House 50 Holyoke St - 110 Grill 3 Country Club Rd. – The Delaney House 500 Easthampton Rd. – The Log Cabin 151-155 Chestnut St. – Ivory Billiards Lounge 224 Westfield Rd. – Fitzgerald Pizza 1 Country Club Rd. – D.

More than ever before, we should all listen to the doctors. And celebrate the doctors. In this vital episode, we talk with one of those brave fighters in the expanding war against the coronavirus. A hero who is right now fighting COVID-19 and saving lives. Dr. Paul Haser is a brilliant and heroic emergency surgeon at Brookdale Hospital Medical Center in Brooklyn, New York--a front line in our global war against the coronavirus. One that this week became a war zone. [1:10:30] Dr. Paul Haser takes us inside. He’ll show you what the face of our enemy looks like. He’ll tell you what it’s like to operate on someone who’s tested positive for COVID-19. He’ll explain what you can do to protect yourself. And what you can do to support the heroes like him, and all the incredible medical professionals risking their lives for us.  Prior to the fight against COVID-19, Dr. Haser volunteered in Haiti after the catastrophic earthquake of 2010. He also served at Landstuhl Regional Medical Center in Germany--the only forward-stationed medical center for U.S. and Coalition forces--where he treated combat injuries and performed the first endovascular aortic graft implantation procedure ever, saving the life of an American sniper with a piece of shrapnel next to his heart. Now, Dr. Haser is on the forward edge of our fight against the coronavirus, inside one of the hardest hit hospitals in the world. A dangerous place, deep behind the lines, surrounded by the enemy. This is a conversation everyone needs to hear now.  Our host, independent activist and Iraq Veteran Paul Rieckhoff (@PaulRieckhoff) leads this vital episode and breaks down the most urgent political, defense and veterans news you need to know--with equal doses of snark and funny. He gets an update from 9/11 hero FDNY firefighter Rob Serra (@SerraRob) about a critical and outrageous shortage of masks facing NYC firefighters. Rieckhoff also digs into how COVID-19 has taken out a US Navy aircraft carrier, how the number of dead veterans at the Department of Veterans Affairs is rising, which Governors and Mayors are costing American lives, and how unlikely leaders like Dolly Parton are heroically stepping up to help. It’s important, informative and inspiring.  This episode of Angry Americans is powered by BRAVO SIERRA. BRAVO SIERRA (@BravoSierra_USA) is the military-native performance wellness company.

In doing so, health centers provide substantial benefits to the country and its health care system. Learn about the vital role that community health centers play in the American health care system.
