Interview with Kevin Maguire

We talk Whitehall, tuition fees and Sunderland FC with the veteran Daily Mirror journalist

November 12, 2015
Kevin Maguire, Daily Mirror, University of Sunderland

Kevin Maguire is associate editor of and political columnist at the Daily Mirror. He previously served as chief reporter at The Guardian and was labour correspondent for The Daily Telegraph. A regular on television and radio, he also used to host his own programme on talk radio station LBC 97.3. A native of the North East, he was appointed visiting professor of journalism at the University of Sunderland last month.

Where and when were you born?
South Shields on the coast of northeast England in 1960, third of six children. Dad was a miner, mam worked in a biscuit factory and as a cleaner.

How has this shaped you?
It gave me a work ethic and a fierce belief that life should and can be fairer for people who aren’t born with a silver spoon in the mouth. Grumbling is understandable, but you’ve got to do something if you want a better world.

What do you hope to achieve in your visiting professorship?
Pass on my experience and do my bit to help students live their dreams. Sunderland’s a great university with fab staff and brill facilities. The more I see, the more I like.

Do you hope this might be a springboard into a different career?
Journalism’s been good to me, so I’ll stick with it unless journalism leaves me. I’ve had offers in the past (PR, spin doctor, even an MP), but I love what I do.

What is the future of print journalism?
Much rosier than we often shout! People will always want to buy the printed word in papers, magazines and books, alongside the net, TV and radio.

What role did higher education play in bringing you to this point in your career?
Studying politics at the University of York opened my eyes and raised horizons not least by introducing me to new people from different backgrounds (they’re called Southerners!). And a one-year journalism postgraduate diploma at Cardiff University was my passport to a job.

You’ve had a fair few splashes in your time at the Mirror. Is there one in particular that gives you most pleasure/pride, and for what reasons?
Revealing that humans could be infected by mad cow disease won awards, and ringing John Prescott about his affair was surreal; but my favourite was helping a waitress win back her job when she was sacked…for eating an After Eight mint left on a table after a reception. Bonkers.

You were once described as a “mischief man” in a media profile. Is that how you’d regard yourself still?
I might be addicted to mischief, but I intend to cause trouble for the powerful who are guilty of sharp practice, corruption, hypocrisy and making the lives of less powerful people miserable. I won’t pretend it isn’t fun.

Which is more high-pressured: journalism or academia?
Academia. I shudder when I hear lecturer friends talking of stress from “customer” students (and sometimes parents), who think they’re buying a degree, and about cash-strapped managements. Journalism’s no cakewalk, but I appreciate that others have it tougher.

If you were a prospective university student now facing £9,000 a year fees, would you go again or go straight into work?
[If they’d been around in my day] I fear I’d have gone straight into work. It would’ve been a mistake, but I was (cue violins) the first in our family to go to university (and the only one of the six kids to do so) and I would’ve been frightened of the debt. Two of my own kids have gone, and I hope the third will. I encourage every kid I know to go to university.

What has changed most in higher education in the past five to 10 years?
Looking from the outside, I grimace at those student debt levels. Horrendous. I read the participation figures too, but some kids from poorer backgrounds are put off. The Tories’ abolishing maintenance grants will make it worse.

What’s your biggest regret?
One of them is not working harder at university. I left with a 2:1, but 30-plus years on I’m still reading some of the books. I didn’t fully grasp the opportunity. A friend I shared houses with had as much fun as I did but was disciplined and got a first.

Have you had a eureka moment?
I suppose when I realised that I could do journalism. You worry you won’t be good enough, then suddenly you’re in print. It was a great feeling.

Tell us about someone you admire.
I was a huge admirer of the brilliant journalist Geoffrey Goodman, who I grew up reading in the Daily Mirror. Living? Dennis Skinner. Helped him write his book. He’s shrewd, bright and very funny.

What are the best and worst things about your job?
The freedom to be nosy, to ask questions and to say what you think are by far the best. The worst? Some of the people you have to talk to.

What keeps you awake at night?
I’m a pretty good sleeper, but other than the occasional fretting that I’ve made an error, every now and again I suffer a nightmare that, believe it or not, is that I must hand in a PhD the following morning and I’ve not written a single word.

If you were the universities minister for a day, what policy would you immediately introduce to the sector?
Abolish tuition fees. I received a free education and a maintenance grant, so I couldn’t deny others what I enjoyed. A graduate tax would be better, but my preference would be to force Amazon, Facebook, Google et al to pay fairer taxes to fund public services.

Journalists are bound by their profession to tell the truth: will Sunderland stay in the Premier League?
Yes. I was there when we beat 3-0 local rivals Newcastle for a record sixth straight derby win. Glorious.

Andrew Young has been appointed the London School of Economics’ inaugural chief operating officer. In the role, created to oversee and improve the integration of LSE’s non-academic services, Dr Young will be directly responsible for key professional service divisions including estates, human resources, information management and technology, residences and catering. He joins from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, where he held a similar position. “I am looking forward to a new challenge, and thrilled to be joining LSE,” said Dr Young, who will start work at the LSE in January.

An internationally renowned eye nursing researcher has been appointed head of the School of Healthcare Sciences at Cardiff University. Heather Waterman, who joins from the University of Manchester, will aim to build on the school’s reputation of excellence in teaching and innovative health research. Professor Waterman has more than 25 years’ experience in healthcare sciences research and served as professor of nursing and ophthalmology at Manchester for 13 years. She said that her goal was to ensure that students continue to get an excellent experience “that gives rise to caring, competent, ethically aware and knowledgeable healthcare professionals”.

Paddy Ireland has been named dean of the Faculty of Social Sciences and Law at the University of Bristol, a role he will start later this month. He previously served as professor of law and director of research in the faculty. The University of Lincoln has appointed Stephen Bevan deputy head of the School of Life Sciences. Dr Bevan, a specialist in human genetics, joins from the University of Cambridge, where he was principal research associate in cerebrovascular genetics. Ehsan Mesbahi has been made vice-principal and pro vice-chancellor (research and enterprise) at the University of the West of Scotland. Professor Mesbahi, who takes up his position in January, is currently dean and chief executive of Newcastle University International Singapore.

How Firefighters Are Using GPS Vehicle Tracking

GPS vehicle tracking is not just for fleets delivering products to stores. Today, with the increased number of benefits offered by fleet management software, a growing number of government departments are turning to fleet management to streamline their operations and get services to community members more quickly. Fire departments are one of the many government entities that are benefiting from an increasing reliance on GPS fleet tracking.

Tracking and Communication for Firefighters Save Lives

Firefighting is a dangerous business, and firefighters rely on each other to help prevent a tragedy. When in the field fighting a fire, poor communication can lead to serious injury and even death, and GPS fleet tracking can help limit this risk.

This risk is particularly evident when looking at wildfires. When a department is dispatched to fight a wildfire or brush fire, conditions are prime for firefighters to get lost. Thick smoke impacts visibility, and poor visibility in a field with no landmarks leads to rescue personnel getting lost. For this reason, firefighter fatalities are a high risk during wildfires.

GPS fleet tracking can assist with this. Using GPS trackers on firetrucks and the firefighters themselves, combined with live mapping technology, fire crews can keep tabs on their personnel, increasing the chance of a successful recovery should the fire get out of control or a rescue professional get lost in the smoke and haze. Accurate location information through firefighter tracking also leads to better communication, and better communication saves lives.

Improved Routing to Get to the Scene More Quickly

Firetruck tracking also helps fire crews better dispatch their equipment to the scene of an emergency. When it comes to a fire, getting to the scene quickly often means the difference between a tragedy and a successful rescue. GPS fleet tracking systems can help fire crews track the most efficient route to a location, while also providing data about response times so the team can make an effort to improve those response times when needed.

By having accurate tracking data about route options, fire stations can make better decisions for planning future routes as well. If the data shows that a particular route is typically congested and causes delays, the team can make alternate plans the next time a call in that area of the city comes.

Automatic Response Time Tracking

In addition to helping fire crews find the most effective routes, GPS tracking will assist in tracking response times. A fire crew needs to be on the scene with minimal delay in a true fire emergency, and fleet management software will help track response times to see if they are appropriately fast.

Accurate Data About Time on Scene

In addition to tracking how long it takes to get to the scene, fire crews need to know how long it takes to stop the fire once they arrive on scene. However, once the firefighters get to the scene of the fire, tracking the time it takes to stop the fire is not the first priority. Yet that data is important to help the fire crew make informed decisions about training focus and improving their efforts at the next fire. Every second counts when a fire is burning a building!

With firetruck tracking technology, which automatically tracks the time it takes to get to a fire and the time the crew is on the site, fire station leadership will automatically receive the data needed to track this information, even if they do not think to time the job when the fire call comes.

Invest in GPS Tracking for Your Fire Station

GPS tracking for firefighters and firetrucks is somewhat new, but it's proving to be highly beneficial, both in getting crews to the fire more quickly, and in keeping them safe and effective while on the scene. At Track Your Truck, we offer affordable and effective GPS fleet management systems that can work well for firetruck fleets.Whether you are looking for firefighter tracking to keep your crew safer or want to track your firetrucks to ensure you are using the best routes and have the best response times, our system will give you the data and tracking capabilities you need. Contact us today for a free demonstration of our fleet tracking products, and see the difference they can make for your fire crew.

Net Metering Program Expanded in New York

Single Wind Turbine

photo by David Laribee

Yesterday came the news that improving energy efficiency is on the top of the agenda for the State of New York. If their new Energy Efficiency Portfolio Standard program works as planned, the state hopes energy usage by 2015 will be reduced by 15%.

Governor David Patterson also announced yesterday an expansion of the state’s net metering law, which allows electric customers who renewably generate energy to sell what they don’t use back to the grid.
The new bill will expand net metering to solar PV systems on businesses, as well increasing the size of eligible systems to 25 KW for residential customers, and up to 2 MW of peak load for non-residential customers.

Net metering for wind installations will be expanded to all customer classes. Previously only residential and farm operations were included. Additionally, the maximum size of eligible wind facilities for farm operations has been increased from 125 KW to 500 KW. Non-residential customers will be able to net meter up to 2 MW of their peak load.

Farm waste electric generation systems will have the amount which they can net meter increase from 400 KW to 500 KW.

Pacific Island Nations Again Plead for Greater Emissions Cuts from Rich Nations

kiribati photo

Kiribati, photo: Luigi Guarino via flickr

Meeting ahead of the Pacific Islands Forum summit meeting in Cairns, Australia, the Economic Times is reporting that leaders of seven nations whose very existence is all but assured to be ended by rising sea levels over the course of this century have again called on the wealthy nations of the world to make stronger greenhouse gas emissions cuts:The island leaders -- including those of Kiribati, Tuvalu, and the Marshall Islands, all of which stand just two meters above sea level -- reiterated the call for greenhouse gas cuts of 45% below 1990 levels by 2020 and 85% cuts worldwide by 2050.

Just a reminder: No nation in the developed world really is paying much attention to these calls, nor those from India and China which are much the same. They are being made by the people who will be first, and worst, hit by climate change -- which, especially in the case of these island nations, none of them historically are responsible for.

At the recent G8 meeting in Italy, the world's rich nations agreed that limiting global temperature rise to 2°C was the goal, but entirely failed to commit to emission reduction targets which scientists say are sufficient to meet that goal.

The Great Debate: Is Prefab Really Green?

Chad Ludeman wrote in Jetson Green: Prefab is Not The Answer to Affordable, Modern & Green Homes:

There are a variety of claims made by prefab proponents to support the idea that this method of home delivery is the best way to provide modern architecture to the masses.

They are:

  1. Prefab is more Affordable
  2. Prefab produces less Waste
  3. Prefab takes less Time
  4. Prefab is more "Green"

Chad goes on to pick each of these claims apart. Is he correct? You decide on Thursday, May 19 at 3:30 EDT at TreeHuggerLive!

People Habitat by Kaid Benfield is a must-read for anyone who cares about cities (Book review)

People Habitat
© People Habitat

I really should have recused myself from reviewing Kaid Benfield's People Habitat. I am terribly biased, having been reading his daily column at NRDC switchboard and having been profoundly influenced by Kaid's thinking and his writing. I knew before I started writing that it would be a rave review, and it is.

Some of the 25 essays are based on posts available online, but there is also original content, knitted together in a way that adds value. The source post of chapter two, "What seems green may actually be brown", is the essay that made flashbulbs go off inside my head when I first read it years ago and made me a Kaid convert. He applied the latest in online technology (Walkscore and Abogo) to show what has since become obvious: that you can't build exurban sprawl and call it green or sustainable, calling out a supposed "Net Zero" community for being anything but. It sets the tone for the whole book with its lesson that where you build is as important as what you build, that context and community matter more than solar panels.

sustainability© Kaid Benfield/ from Chapter 8: Sustainability Requires Attention to Legacy

He also has much to say to the architectural preservation community, understanding that "older buildings and neighborhoods have intrinsic green properties" (while suggesting that we should be more discerning in what we fight to preserve). He understands how fundamental shifts in transportation and building technology has changed the way we live, leading to a society that is less communal, less trusting, more defensive than it used to be:

First, air conditioning. I'm serious. People can spend more time indoors comfortably than they could, say 50 years ago, which means less interaction. How many people sit on their front porches in the evenings now, even if they have them? Second, our addiction to automobiles...."people tend to interact with their neighbours mainly through their windshields"

there must be a there there© Kaid Benfield/ Gallery 6 from Chapter 13: There Must Be a There

I could go on, but will just tease with a few of the more provocative chapter titles, like "Americans don't walk much, and I don't blame them" or "Walk, drink, and walk back", an ode to the neighbourhood bar, or "sustainability is where the heart is."

Planning jargon and archispeak don't cross Kaid Benfield's lips; he talks about smart growth and new urbanism but the word Transect never comes up. It's all just great photographs, a first person conversational style, and a serious dose of common sense, something that is often lacking in our discussions of building sustainable cities. He doesn't go for fads, eschewing the current "density is green" to note that "high density urbanism cannot be our only model if we are to create a world that a diverse spectrum of people want to live in." We have to focus on the quality of what we are building, the amenities that support it, and not just the height.

park in parisLloyd Alter/ Jardin du Luxembourg/CC BY 2.0

I will end with a note about Chapter 6, Cities need nature, in which Kaid looks at the importance of parks, big and small. It turns out that his favourite park in the world, Jardin du Luxembourg in Paris, is also mine. I loved it because it actually had movable chairs, that it was a big comfy and friendly living room in the city. It's green, but it is the definition of urbanity.

For me, reading this book was like sitting around a fire talking about city life with an old friend. If you have not read Kaid before, he will quickly feel like an old friend, talking directly from and to the heart, getting to the essence of what makes places that we love and what we can to to make more places like them. The first time I read it I blurbed "These 25 essays are not just about cities; they are about making sense of the way we live." Reading it again, it gets even better.

Read more at the People Habitat website, and here are some of the stories I have written where I am directly influenced by Kaid Benfield or quote him extensively:

Green sprawl is still sprawl, says Kaid Benfield

Mass Megawatts wind augmenterMass Megawatts/Screen capture

One wind technology company is taking a different approach to low wind speed power generation with its multi-axis turbines and what they call a wind "augmentation system", which claims to increase the wind speed at the turbines and triple their power output.

Mass Megawatts Wind Power, of Worcester, MA, says that combining their Multi-Axis Turbo system (MAT) and MMW Augmenter will create a wind power technology for profitable electricity generation at sites with lower wind speeds, and increase production to peak levels at high wind sites.

The wind augmentation system uses a fairly simple and inexpensive wind-focusing device to increase the wind speeds directed at the turbines by about 70%, which is said to triple the electrical power generated by those turbines. Mass Megawatts claims this could eliminate the need for towers over 80 feet high for turbines in some areas, reducing the costs for both materials and installations and enabling wind turbines to generate electricity profitably in areas of lower wind speeds.

According to the company, the new wind augmentation system is near completion, and they plan to set up a side-by-side comparison for data collection.

The Jaguar I-Pace Offers Up to 298 Miles of Range

 - Mar 2, 2018
References: & geeky-gadgets
The Jaguar I-Pace has been announced by the automotive brand as its first electric vehicle that is positioned to be a well-equipped option for those looking to ditch their existing gas-powered car.

Boasting a 90kWh battery pack, the vehicle is able to offer up to 298 miles of range per charge of the batter and is also outfitted with a rapid charging technology. This will enable it to be charged from 0% to 80% in just 85 minutes, while a quick 30 minute charge will provide 80 miles of range. This reduces concerns about range anxiety by cutting the charging time drastically to ensure you're never left with a dead battery for too long.

The Jaguar I-Pace features a luxury interior that includes the latest technology along with connectivity to the Amazon Alexa voice assistant to ask questions like, "Do I have enough range to get to work?"

 - Mar 13, 2018
References: instagram & popsugar
Sporting a lipgloss that looks as good as it feels is a new concept that MAC is trying to achieve, after having teased its new scented lip glosses on Instagram.

While little is known about this upcoming product, the photo revealed that the glosses are expected to smell like the delicious item its named after. Some of these names include: Death by Chocolate, Banana Muffins, Coconut Macaroon, Funfetti Cake, Raspberry Cream, Punchy Berry and Strawberry Torte. The hues of the line range from bright reds to bold oranges, offering a flattering color for any complexion.

There's been no word on a release date for these products, but based on the Instagram post, consumers can expect it within the next few months.

Birthday boost for autism friendly cinema

editorial image

Special cinema sessions which make move-going more accessible to people with autism and their families celebrate their first anniversary this weekend.

The project overseen by social care provider Dimensions was launched last summer in partnership with the Odeon cinema chain.

Screenings of chosen films are held each month at the Aylesbury Odeon, which has welcomed hundreds of film fans over the past 12 months.

On Sunday a screening of the new U-rated family film Dr Seuss: The Lorax, pictured, will be held at 11.30am.

Lisa Hopkins of Dimensions said: “The autism community have really embraced our project. This partnership has enabled so many people who experience autism to feel more involved in their community. It is all about inclusion and we are very pleased with the positive impact it has made to people’s lives.

“One in a hundred people in England and Wales are diagnosed with autism and it is essential society is adaptable to their needs – this project, we feel, is a huge step in the right direction”.

Screenings are of mainstream films shown in a sensory friendly environment. Lights are on low, sound is turned down, trailers are omitted and people can bring their own food and make noise.

Support worker Inreek Sandhu said: “I have been attending these screenings for a while now and think they are amazing. The guy I support can be vocal, so it was always difficult taking him to the cinema – which was a shame because he loves going.

“Now he can go and be as vocal as he wishes. I couldn’t think of a better setting for him.”

Parent Sarah Ashley said: “My son had already been asking for this film and we felt bad we couldn’t take him. Thanks for making it possible – we have three very excited kids now.”

The project started as a one-off, with 3,222 people attending the first screening of Mr Popper’s Penguins in 40 cinemas.

After the decision to roll the screenings out to more cinemas on a monthly basis. the project has gone from strength to strength and the organisations have recently been shortlisted for a Third Sector Excellence Award in the corporate partnership category.

Tickets for Sunday’s screening will be available from 11am on Wednesday morning by calling 0800 138 3315. For more information, visit

New I-mobile Stadium, Buriram Hospital Reviews

  • The stadium is the first sole-use stadium in Thailand that meets FIFA and AFC standards. We had a great experience visiting this stadium. A must visit when you are in buries!

  • Actually it's Chang (as in the beer) Arena. Home of the Buriram United FC. The stadium is decked out in blue, the pitch is immaculately kept and on game days an impressive array of drummers provide a constant background beat for their adored team. Some shopping and dining facilities between the stadium and adjacent international raceway.

  • The stadium is good. There is a temple next to it where you can hire a skateboard or Rollerblades. If you go at around 4, you can watch the sun set. Very beautiful.

  • Amazing experience from visiting inside the Chang Arena. This is the only stadium in Thailand that meets FIFA standards. Facility is great and staff is kind and helpful. It was privileged for me and my group to meet Khun Nevin Chidchob, Chairman of Buriram United. Such a warm welcome from him.

  • High standard stadium, the best in Thailand. Love the outlet downstairs that sell good quality clothing at reasonable price

A new report has found that more than 10 percent of the Internet population is now using an ad-blocker.

In its study, which is entitled The State of the Blocked Web: 2017 Global AdBlock Report, anti-adblocking solutions provider PageFair reveals that 11 percent of Internet users were employing ad-blocking software as of December 2016.

Use of ad-blockers surged worldwide by 30 percent between December 2015 and December 2016. This growth brought the number of devices running adblock software globally to more than 600 million. 62 percent of those were mobile devices, a medium which continues to see more and more users install ad-blocking solutions. Indeed, the Asian-Pacific region alone saw mobile ad-blocker usage increase by 40 percent.

Of course, not everyone is happy about these findings.

Ad-blockers are believed to cost businesses tens of billions of dollars in lost advertising revenue each year. In response, organizations are coming up with ways to discourage visitors to their websites from using ad-blocking software. One of the most common tactics is for businesses to create an adblock wall, a barrier which prevents users from visiting a web page unless they disable their ad-blocker for that website or uninstall their tool altogether.

None of these efforts have so far discouraged users. PageFair found that interruptive ad formats and security concerns are the chief reasons why users continue to install ad-blockers. And while adblock walls might work against a portion of the Internet population, nearly three quarters (74 percent) of users surveyed said they simply abandon those websites that employ this technique.

There is hope for companies, however. PageFair reveals in its report that 77 percent of users were willing to view some ad formats. It’s up to companies to research these appealing ad types and to work on improving their ad content more generally. In the meantime, ad-blocking won’t be going anywhere anytime soon.

To better understand the ad-blocking debate, please click here.

To get this achievement you have to play co-op as Point Man. You must kill 100 enemies that are suspended by your brother Fettel (Co-op partner). Make use of slo-mo on these kills if you want to make sure you kill them before they are no longer suspended and to work your way to "God Among Men".

I would recommend from the very start of the game to start going for this achievement (Minus where you get "A Precursor") so you can get it out of your way. It is also a lot easier in the beginning of the game. If you only go for these kills from the start you will get the achievement during the second level.

This achievement can easily be done in a private free roam match with
just yourself as it can be obtained by killing an NPC.
A good place to go is the Twin Rocks gang hideout. There are two members of Walton's gang up high on rocks, so just keeping on chucking tomahawks from an estimated distance of 35 yards. Eventually one will connect and achievement unlocked.
If you run out of tomahawks, just let yourself die.

Guiding Light Prologue
As Gus enlists Rafe's help in getting ready for his wedding, Rafe points out he's missed 5 calls from Olivia on his cellphone and asks if he loves Natalia. Gus assures him that he does. Natalia warns that she and Gus are a packaged deal so she'll be there whenever Gus (Ricky Paull Goldin) is.

Guiding Light Episode Recap, Part I

In front of Rafe, Gus announces to Natalia that he's arranged for Josh to marry them today. Olivia insists to Ava that she needs Gus and claims that he's keeping her alive. Ava urges her to go after Gus. Olivia calls Gus from the cabin and lies that she's having a hard time breathing. Olivia is upset to find Natalia at the door, not Gus. After sex, Harley tells Cyrus she hopes he knows she didn't plan this. Realizing he's supposed to meet Marina at the airport, Harley tells him she doesn't regret this.

Guiding Light Episode Recap, Part II
Mallet (Robert Bogue) finds injured Marina lying on the ground and calls for an ambulance. At the hospital the doctor tells them both that Marina seems to have a torn ACL and adds that she will not be able to leave town tonight. Cyrus arrives and learns about her near miss with the drug dealer. Marina claims she's alive only because of her thoughts of being with him. Cyrus returns to Harley and admits why he couldn't tell Marina the truth. The two return to the hospital and Marina tells them how lucky she is.

Guiding Light Epilogue
Dinah tries to avoid answering when Mallet asks if she turned off his phone. When she apologizes and asks if they can have another chance at being together, he points out that today is all about Marina.

Auckland congestion charge likely but politicians gridlocked over what's the best solution

A congestion charge on Auckland's clogged roads now looks likely and it could take effect in the next five to 10 years.

It could take effect in the next ten years, but Auckland Council says there is a more effective option.
Source: 1 NEWS

Mayor Phil Goff wants a regional fuel tax for new roads. But Finance Minister Steven Joyce says the Cabinet has decided "we won't be doing that".

Mr Goff says they have a disagreement on that, but a regional fuel tax would "work efficiently, effectively and at low cost".

Instead, the Government is considering congestion charges which are used in big cities like Sydney.

Those extra charges could be offset with reductions in other levies like petrol taxes and road user charges.

"We don't see this as predominantly a revenue gathering exercise," Mr Joyce said.

"We see it as a way of getting a better result with the roading system and all the design features are yet to be discussed."

Mr Goff says that won't ease Auckland's traffic problems for another decade and will leave it with a big financial hole in the short-term.

"We have got a $400 million deficit in spending on traffic and transport infrastructure," he said.

"If not a regional fuel tax what are we going to put in place? Because I am not going to do the alternative which is to put a 16 per cent increase in rate rises on Aucklanders."

Union College marks 150th anniversary of 'Taps'

It may be the most recognizable 24 notes in music. Played at funerals, and wreath-laying and memorial services, the military bugle call known simply as Taps was first sounded in July 1862.

The man who gave life to Taps was Daniel Butterfield, a member of Union’s Class of 1849. While serving as a general during the Civil War, Butterfield didn’t like the traditional bugle call that marked the day’s end. So with the help of his brigade’s bugler, Butterfield tweaked another call no longer in use. The eloquent and haunting sound quickly spread to other units and became the new standard.

Taps turns 150 this year. To read more about the history of the call in Stars and Stripes, click here.
