  • Trump’s Healthcare Disaster

    A recent Gallup poll has found that in the United States, the share of people stating that they are insecure about the cost of their medication is rising. In January of this year, 18.9 percent of respondents said there was a time over the previous 12 months when their household was unable to pay for medicine or drugs prescribed by their doctor and that increased to 22.9 percent in September 2019. The report also found that 13 percent of U.S. adults – 34 million people – say they know of someone who had died because he or she was not able to pay for medical treatment. 1

  • Adobe Bridge Crashes on Startup

    We have experience many crashes using Adobe Bridge 2019 and 2010. Extremely frustrating even when using some of the techniques offered by Adobe themselves on their website.

    We came across an Internet posting by Jim Doty, Jr. on his website jimdoty.com that “seems” to do the trick for us. It appears he found this technique somewhere using a Google search, but we’ll give Jim the credit for at least finding this.

    Immediately (and I mean immediately) after pressing the icon for Adobe Bridge, press the Ctrl+Alt+Shift (Windows) or Command+Option+Shift (Mac OS). IF a window shows up (in case it didn’t), his post suggests “Select all three options – Reset Preferences, Reset Standard Workspaces, and Purge Entire Thumbnail Cache – and then click OK.”

    In our case, Bridge just started doing the indexing thing and we were back up and running after about 30 minutes while Bridge re-indexed a network drive. We are a Windows shop, so I’m unclear if this would work on Mac OS.

  • Steven Mnuchin Tries to Block Release of Heckling Video

    Instead of simply dealing with several students heckling him, he tries to block the release of the video.

    Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin was taunted with hisses, heckles and profanity during a lecture and moderated discussion at U.C.L.A. this week. Protesters were carried out by armed police officers. A sixth grader in the audience questioned him about the fairness of passing permanent tax cuts for companies and expiring cuts for individuals. But the official video footage of the university’s Arnold C. Harberger Lecture, hosted by the Burkle Center for International Relations, is nowhere to be found. That is because Mr. Mnuchin took the unusual step of revoking his consent for it to be released given the contentiousness of the event. 2
