St Albans divided on plans to pedestrianise Waddington Road
A petition was launched earlier this year by a local business owner calling for Hertfordshire County Council (HCC) to undertake a study of the potential pedestrianisation.

We will never achieve true equity and inclusion in our community without also solving for digital inclusion, something now tantalizingly possible with funding from the recently passed $1.9 TRILLION American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, or ARPA.
In this age of COVID-19, high-speed internet access is every bit as critical for daily life as water or electricity. Imagine being unable to complete an online job application, let alone work from home. Imagine your kids doing their online learning on an old smartphone. Imagine having to secure your vaccine appointment by phone. Imagine trying to access the digital world if you don’t have the hand function or vision to operate a computer due to a disability. Imagine choosing between paying for internet access or feeding your family.

Patriarchy baffles me as much as white supremacy does. How do the men, birthed by women, consider us inferior? When we raise our voices, we are irrational or hysterical. When we are emphatic, we are hostile. According to former Japanese Prime Minister Yoshiro Mori, we talk too much in meetings when we talk. Mori offered this weak excuse when questioned about the scarcity of women on the Tokyo Olympic Organizing Committee, which he chairs. Later, the 83-year-old Mori apologized, citing criticism from his daughter and granddaughter.
That’s Japan, not the United States, some might say. But show me a woman who has sent in an executive, civic, or academic meeting, and I’ll show you a woman who has confronted patriarchal attitudes in meetings. Listening to men restate her point, which was ignored when she made it. Interrupted. Encountered the passive hostility that comes when men don’t want to hear women’s voices.
Who s the most popular band in the Bay this summer?
It s a close run thing. What with Tauranga now being celebrated as Festival Central for New Zealand – this week sees yet another in the form of One Love s reggae celebration - there have been a whole bunch of different bands playing here in the past month or so.
But taking the prize must be. Credence Clearwater Revival! Well, the tribute show at least.
After playing at Waihi Beach just before Christmas, they were back a couple of weeks ago playing at a Twilight Concert in Katikati s Haiku Domain. Now they re back again, not on the Bayou but in the Bay, this time playing in Tauranga for the Entertainers Club on Valentine s Day (that s Sunday 14 February for you non-romantic types).
