To me, the most important discovery after the first three years of this program is that many participants stopped their new behaviors once the flow of money ended. No money, no reason to achieve. If that doesn't crash this pilot program, nothing will.
In an experiment to break the cycle of poverty, Mayor Bloomberg helped to launch a program in 2007 that paid 4,800 poor families for accomplishing basic behaviors. $30 million in private funds were used to reward low-income New Yorkers for going to the doctor, working 30 hours a week, and attending school. For example, students in the program earned $600 for passing each Regents test required for graduation.
Three years after its launch, the program concluded with mixed results. The experiment showed little effect on doctor visits and test scores, but families did have more money in the bank. After revisions were made, the program resumed in the Bronx and Memphis, Tennessee in 2011 using $16 million in philanthropic and federal funding. An updated report released today found the "Family Rewards" program is succeeding in "reducing current poverty and material hardship," but is leaving "many important outcomes unchanged."
Should low-income families be awarded cash incentives to accomplish basic life functions? Are you surprised the program -- similar to giving an employee a bonus or a child an allowance -- isn't yielding better results? What ideas do you have to break the cycle of poverty in New York City?

Hey John
it's very complicated on the part of the individual you pretty much have to reeducate. Self hate for themselves and others should be replaced with love or self and civility toward their fellow man. As far as the government goes employ people on mass scales open up the city, state, and federal jobs. Improve housing, living wage and open up home schooling.
Wanting to live healthy and knowing the importance of an education are not things you can pay people to do, this are basic ideals that should be taught to kids at an early age, at the home, in school's and church's.
Felix Bay Ridge
One major problem with a question like this is that, in the overheated atmosphere of New York City -- especially in an election season -- is that it is too easy to sound either like Ebenezer Scrooge for opposing the program on what might be legitimate philosophical or intellectual grounds, or like a gullible, wide-eyed liberal do-gooder for supporting it, on equally valid grounds. It has to be examined in the cool, clear light of day, not in a forum such as this.
BruceUpper West SideManhattan
Here's an idea, John:
How about "Rewarding" the working class tax payers who have a hard time making ends meet? Out tiny bonuses get sucked away (along with our salaries) due to the higher costs of public transportation, food, rents, mortgages, insurances, taxes ... we make too much money to qualify for food stamps but we're still all living paycheck-to-paycheck. I think it's time WE get a Reward just for being able to still stay in NYC -- mainly because we have no choice at this point!
Dina and Ed of Throggs Neck
End poverty by ending taxation. You should be free to keep all that you earn. But you might ask, How then do we finance all these government programs? You don't and that's the point. The only legitimate function of the government is the protection of individual rights meaning the police, the courts and the military. Everything else is fraud financed by government picking your pocket by taxation.
JoePort Richmond, SI
I am shocked. People are given cash rewards for regular everyday things they have to do Anyway First- why isnt this working Second - how can i get on one of those programs Lastly If you want to break poverty GOOD LUCK Like guns, drugs and prostitution It always been there And it will always be there until the time when there is no money and all our needs and wants are provided to us for our work
Jim UES
To change behavior, people need to learn WHY they should do something or what the benefits are of doing it. Cash as a reward seems to be in the 'give a man a fish' vein.
Hi John, First of all it always seems as though these politicians make decisions without asking us and continue to be a big sport with our money. [ALL I CAN SAY IS THAT IS SOME DAMN NERVE] Who are the ones to make this decision? How do they choose a family? Don't answer that = Bloomberg = all the time in the middle of everything. UNLESS: Since he has no legacy he just decided to add his name to this list if valid-and if not then I consider it a phantom list. If true then enough of these phantom donations and these families just as we had to do should take responsibility and we are sick and tired of footing the bill for everyone else and all their needs.
Thank you John, maxxieemp
Frankly im tired of taking care of foreigners and my fellow Americans with my tax dollars because when I need I can't never get help from the government.
Shawn. Bushwick
Maybe if poor people got paid a living wage and got medical benefits they wouldn't need to be "rewarded" for doing what most of us take for granted.
FrancesEast Village
Sure, why not? Why not the working class as well to help them out?
My real reaction contains words you can't say on TV. All of them. Repeatedly. Vigorously. Being poor is not an excuse to be stripped of your dignity. To forget that is to forget your basic humanity.
The desire to work hard and better oneself comes from within. It can not be manufactured or bought with money. Role models do help, but it can't be bought.
Chris from Brooklyn
No less govt interference it starts with family basic values
Don Bay Ridge
End the dependency on Government Programs. Dependency just fosters more dependency. If an individual does not want to finish school, and or lack basic behaviors, that's their choice. It is wrong to leave the consequences of other people's bad decisions at the feet of the city tax payer. I do not see any help for the working or middle class families who are being taxed to death to pay for all these social programs.
-John from Staten Island
I think that is ridiculous. If anything it is a way to keep people in poverty. What about creating jobs, educating low income people in ways to achieve their goals, give them the tools, motivate them. I believe everyone needs to use the skill God gave them to pull themselves up. There is a saying "Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day, Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime". We have all done it and no one is the exception. I believe every individual has that in them.
TheresaUpper West Side
it doesn't work the poor are not helped much by these programs. My children did well in AP courses and on regents in general and got into the program but It really didn't help. If you want to help poor people. Provide jobs ,housing and responsible child care. Reform welfare so it allows the poor mother to keep her child support and provide a rent subsidy that can pay current rents.
Poor people are not a handicap. What they are is being pushed aside as unimportant. This program is a perfect example of the disparity of wealth and lack of humanity in these city.
Stephanie from corona
People would abuse it. How about have them do jobs around the city clean the parks take out tras, This would get people out their houses and in a working mind frame
David Jamaica Queens
If we have all this money to bribe people to do what is needed, we could pay for education and job placement and training to the same people.
Mike from Morningside
I disagree with cash incentives that reward people of low income status to accomplish basic goals because I believe those extrinsic rewards don't ignite forward movement. Instead, they promote a false sense of accomplishment for things that many people do each day. I believe that to end the cycle of poverty, tax dollars should be distributed towards programs that promote creativity, entrepreneurship, and self-sufficiency rather than dependency on tax payers to support their lifestyles.
Caroline, Brooklyn
Tell em Mary. You are the truth! I love your comment everything you said was on point.
Precious from Woodside
I understand that being poor is terrible situation but aren't there enough Gov't Programs out there to help the people. Ex; Welfare, Housing, etc. Why wouldn't a person want stride to get out of the situation without these incentives ? This makes no sense. How come never hear about the taxpayers getting a break. John - Princess Bay - Staten Island.
Hey John,
ask Bill DeBazio, hes the one who knows how to close the $$$ gap.
Joe, Brooklyn.
John, Raising a family of 4 including rent is impossible. I think providing cash incentives to high school students to pass test, for low income families to get incentives to bring their children to doctors, and most importantly, allowing parents to be able to provide food for their children is a great thing. I don't have any problems with some of my tax dollars going to help pay for these type of programs. Children in charter schools get paid an allowance to show up at school. This gives the kids a sense of self worth and teaches students that hard work pays off God Bless New York City. Katemidtown east
The working class families should be given a money incentive. Working class families are tapped out financially and working paycheck to paycheck to make ends meet.
Rewards are usually short term and spurs the recipients to do better in the long-term. Do something which will have a positive long term effect: Let's bring back employment to the U.S. from overseas.
D. Harlem
My father dropped out of high school after his father died when he was sixteen. He left school to work to support his mother and little sister. He then went to fight the war in Korea. When he got back from the war he went to work at the trucking depots on Kearny NJ. He wound up retiring as the manager of the facility he started at. You have to work hard and want success. He is proof you can come from nothing and make it with perseverance and hard work.
Why NOT? We should extend the program to cover more area for middle class, too. For example, tax credit for exercising, eating health diet, etc. We'll live a happier live and save a lot of money is everyone is healthier.
Amitorfor from Upper East Side
Stop the presses, this is not a long term solution, although it has merit. We need a jobs incentive program, and we need livable wages. I don't see a tale of two cities where opportunity is concerned. It's almost as if a certain income class of people, want to dismiss an entire segment of the population. For those who exist on the radar of commerce, and profitability, it almost a crime that working class people aren't even an after thought in these troubled times.
Michael G.
People make snap judgments who never lived in poverty. What about the NEW POOR! People who loss their employment, spent all their savings and have run out of unemployment insurance? These people are educated with Masters and PhD's, What about extending unemployment for those people who pay a lot of taxes over the years where are their incentives? I am all for incentives if it is across the board for people who need help i.e. Sandy, etc.
Miss Mae - Harlem
Perhaps the most appropriate terms to be used are "underpaid" and "overpaid." This gets to the heart of the matter because it describes the way people are valued and it is one of the underlying causes of this country's economic problems.
Guyin Brooklyn
No.....paying people to do that which they should so naturally is not the answer....You must have the will to do bettet and do for self. Why should I depend on an incentive such as cash and not my will to do so to make me do better......
If the mayor really wants to improve the achievement levels in low income areas in ny he should put more focus & money into the public schools. The same backing he gives to the charter schools should be extended to public schools. Also, how about networking with private companys & having a work study program with these companys for high school students
The great American Travesty! May workers work 60-80 hours a week for minimum wage and still qualify for food stamps. Raise minimum wage to a living wage for starters. At least in developing countries they are not exploited by having to work and pay to be poor. They are simply poor.
Gloria - Harlem - NY
There are a lot of excuses I'm hearing from people who are proponents of this idiotic program that has been proposed.
Those who are in perpetual poverty or see the cycle of poverty being passed on from one generation to another need to reflect inward and change themselves versus looking for handouts and miracles that'll never happen.
If they want to get out of poverty then they have to assume responsibility of their own actions and stop playing the victim or race cards. That's a tired and over used excuse.
Hi John,
My parents always told my sisters and I that our inheritance was going to be our education. My parents are immigrants from the Dominican Republic and did not have the resources to pursue higher education. I'm proud to say my sister has her master's degree, I'm a college graduate and the other one is a current college student. I am not opposed to the "program" but I do think self motivation is a huge factor in how successful the program can be.
Yodalis from Washington Heights
Growing up in Bed Stuy in a family of 6 people on AFDC + food stamps and medicaid in the 70's thru 80's we learned from my mom about how to work hard, go to school and save our money for a rainy day. I attended Brooklyn Tech and earned a scholarship to attend a private college on my own. My parent did not know how to help me, so I had to figure out how to help myself. I got braces through Medicaid and also worked 20 hrs throughout college. Kids need to be much more resourceful and stop acting like they are owed something. Go out and get what you want!!!
Audrey in Clinton Hill
Why should we pay people to take care of their children that is their job to take care them.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (SUBMITTED) -- Tennessee senior Chris Walker finds himself among 36 preseason candidates for the 2010 Ted Hendricks Defensive End of the Year Award, as presented by the Ted Hendricks Foundation in Chicago.
Walker battled injuries throughout last season but still paced the Vols in sacks and tied for the team lead in interceptions. None was bigger than his pick-six against Ohio, and the Memphis native also had an interception against Georgia. Walker finished the season with 42 tackles from his end position, including a season-high seven at Florida.
Now in its ninth season, the Ted Hendricks Award is named in honor of college football's first three-time first-team All-America player. As a defensive end at Miami, Hendricks used his agility, height and reach to block passes and kicks, force interceptions and pressure quarterbacks and running backs. His professional career spanned 15 years and 215 consecutive games. It included four Super Bowl victories, eight Pro Bowl selections and inductions into the College and Pro Football halls of fame.
On-field performance, exceptional winning attitude, leadership abilities, contributions to school and community and academic preparedness are some of the criteria used to determine the award's winner. Members of the national media, head coaches, professional scouts and former winners are included in the voting committee.
Previous recipients of the Hendricks Award are: 2002, Terrell Suggs (Arizona State); 2003-04, David Pollack (Georgia); 2005, Elvis Dumervil (Louisville); 2006, LaMarr Woodley (Michigan); 2007, Chris Long (Virginia); 2008, Brian Orakpo (Texas); and 2009, Jerry Hughes (TCU).

Sunday, January 1 1995
Survivor's tone is very difficult to locate, and while this elusiveness may be more than the producers intend, it's just as possible to surmise that they know what they're doing and that teasing the audience with its own naivete is their way of undermining the medium even as they exploit it so well.
Trembling Before G-d (2001) - PopMatters Film Review )
Handles uncomfortable material with bravery and tender force; it is utterly human and unrelenting in its challenges to assumptions.
Gimme Shelter (1970/2000)
Sixties rock and roll festivals -- given their large crowds of people, lack of sanitary facilities, bad drugs, and shortages of food and water -- were catastrophes waiting to happen. People get angry when they're uncomfortable or feel ripped off.
The Eyes of Tammy Faye (1999)
When I was watching her host the PTL Club in the early 1980's, I always thought of her more as an entertaining oddity -- a bizarre cross between a country singer, a drag queen, and Elmer Gantry.

Derry hazard mitigation plan to be updated
The town will work with the Southern New Hampshire Planning Council to update the plan, according to Fire Chief George Klauber.
"The hazard mitigation plan is done every three to four years and looks at the entire property of the town," said Klauber. "It looks at any areas that need to be mitigated, and that could be wetlands or it could be slope areas."
Hazard mitigation planning is a relatively new field of planning spearheaded by the Federal Emergency Management Agency during the 1990s, according to the town's plan, which was adopted in 2004 and last updated in 2009.
Any areas that are determined to need mitigation are forwarded to the Southern New Hampshire Planning Council for inclusion in a long-term plan for the town.
Klauber said it also helps the public works, emergency management and fire departments budget for future mitigation projects.
Over the next several months, Klauber said representatives from those departments will be working with the planning department to update the hazard mitigation plan.
"Once the plan is written and accepted, we will forward that to FEMA," said Klauber. "The plan then allows us to apply for federal funds, which may be available to mitigate some of the areas."
The town's hazard mitigation plan was adopted in 2004 and last updated in 2009.
FEMA began the call for hazard mitigation planning in the 1990s following Hurricane Andrew, which caused more than $20 billion in damage across a number of southern states and resulted in 54 deaths.
The Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 was intended to help communities and states prepare for and deal with similar disasters.
The 2009 plan addresses natural hazards including flooding, wind, wildfire, ice and snow events, and earthquakes. It also identifies critical facilities, a list of emergency equipment or areas that need to respond at the time of a natural disaster, and equipment or areas that could be threatened if a natural disaster occurs.

|Back to Visiting Cornwall Main Index
Locations around Cornwall (and the Isles of Scilly) that have been used in the making of films
|Cornwall has been a prime location for filming since 1899.
Cornwall's rugged rural characteristics, with minimal modernisation, have been ideal for historical films. Some of the Cornish harbours, such as Mevagissey and Charlestown, have required very little adaptation to return them to an 18th century appearance.

The Glitch Mob: Slaying the Laptop Game
- Words: Jennifer Marston
A giant bus was blasting dubstep outside, a line of New Era cap-clad hipsters, dreadlocked kids, hip-hop enthusiasts, and slightly regular-looking people wrapped around the building, and the über-stressed bouncers were turning people away from the guest list. But that was nothing compared to what was happening inside Mighty, the S.F. venue playing host to The Glitch Mob show one windy night this past May. By 11 p.m., Mighty's bar is typically five deep, but not tonight: The four guys standing on stage, behind a row of laptops, would prove to have a more intoxicating effect.
Hard as that sounds to believe, the reason several hundred people were sending whoops, hollers, and high-pitched shrieks in the direction of the stage was largely in part due to the fact that Josh "Ooah" Mayer, Justin Boreta, Matthew "Kraddy" Kratz, and Edward "edIT" Ma were whooping and hollering right back, more wrestling with their computers than playing them, and sending distorted but highly danceable music through the speakers. In short, they appeared to be enjoying themselves on stage, a sight so rare in this age of electronic music it's a little awing when it actually happens.
"We Slay Crowds" is a phrase unabashedly posted on The Glitch Mob's MySpace page, and immodest as it might sound, the four-man outfit currently tearing up dancefloors and confusing the hell out of anyone trying to put a label on their music is well suited to claim that slogan as their own. With a trademark style that's influenced by everything from dubstep to heavy metal, endless amounts of energy, and a technical rider that states they have to be as physically close to the audience as possible when playing, these four producers and friends seem poised and ready to reinvent the laptop game.
"The way you bring [the music] live is what matters," says Ma, over the phone from his home in Los Angeles. "The whole purpose of why we're doing this is that we're basically out there writing music to wow ourselves and wow other people. So the connection with the audience is huge for us."
"When you have a laptop up there, it can create this wall between the performer and the audience, because you don't really know what the hell the person is doing up there," Boreta, the lone member of the group who resides in San Francisco, adds. "We're trying to approach what we do not from necessarily the traditional DJ angle, but more of a live band angle."
Not that any one of them is penning set lists on sheets of notebook paper before each show (in fact, the group only knows the first and last songs of each set and freestyles the rest), but the spirit of a traditional four-piece band jamming off one another is definitely a large part of a Glitch Mob show. Rather than falling into the trap of staying pinned behind a laptop screen, the four members opt instead to step away from the computers at intervals, add MIDI controllers, cut and paste tracks on the fly– which can result in anything from an extended acapella to a full-on synth assault– and constantly interact with one another and the audience. It's a sight that's rare in electronic music these days, when an artist could as easily be editing his MySpace profile as pressing buttons in Ableton, and a refreshing change to club-going audiences. Head to a Glitch Mob show and one will inevitably find the room packed wall-to-wall with everyone from decked-out ladies swaying and crooning near the stage to geeked-out guys in glasses, analyzing the aural surroundings in the back. The point, however, is that across the board, the audience is captivated by what is happening onstage. "The fact that we're having fun up there and that we come up with stuff on the fly we'd never initially planned, people see that," says Kratz. "It becomes like watching a band throw it together and jam live, which is novel for the whole laptop situation."
Mayer, Boreta, Kratz, and Ma are no strangers to such improvisation. The Glitch Mob formed roughly two years ago, but members of the group have been performing together for years, darting up and down the West Coast, sharing gigs, and inviting one another onstage to tag-team at the decks. The formation of an actual unit wasn't so much a carefully planned endeavor as it was a natural next step for the four. "We were all doing the same thing," says Boreta. "We were playing similar types of music, making music on our laptops, and decided to try it together." Though the group is often associated with the whole L.A. IDM-via-hip-hop scene that's led by Flying Lotus, Daedelus, Samiyam, and others, (perhaps with good reason, seeing as the whole lot tends to name-drop one another's acts in every other interview they give), he's quick to point out that the Glitch Mob name was initially a joke. "We just threw it out there and it stuck," he says, adding that it was actually meant as a friendly-but-firm jab driven towards the whole scene. "A lot of times people call what we do glitch-hop or glitch music and we reject that."
It's not the only label they reject, and if breaking down boundaries is the credo of this band, then nowhere is that more evident than when it comes to classifying their music. It's not dubstep. It's not hip-hop or glitch-hop, and don't even think about calling it lazer bass. Though tracks like their remixes of Nalpa's "Monday" and Matty G's "West Coast Rocks" bear certain common denominators (heavy synth layers, loads of feedback, earth-shattering basslines), all four members are steadfastly against trying to wrestle what they do into a specific genre. Rather, they would like their music to be seen as a catch-all genre that could appeal to multiple audiences. "Our music speaks to a lot of different people and we don't want to forget any of them," says Mayer. "We don't want to get stuck in some world where we only make a certain kind of thing. We want to be playing next to the hottest emo band and next to the biggest hip-hop acts."
Kratz has, perhaps, the loosest definition of what The Glitch Mob's sound is: "We want a new name every time. If someone asks us what the name is, I want to be like, 'Well, what would you call it?' And then I'd be like, 'Okay, well that's what we're calling it.'"
It's this sort of attitude that also propels the group when working in their studio (endearingly referred to as The Mob Compound). Because each member produces music as a solo artist as well, different sounds are brought to the table by different people. The pretty melodies usually belong to Mayer, while the expansive synth layers are often Boreta's. Kratz, in his own words, "brings the booty," and Ma is the undisputed drum master of the crew. Currently at work on a full-length album, the group is bringing all of these elements into play, but also exploring new territory that's right in keeping with their mission of eschewing any and all constraints. "It would be very easy for us to come up with 10 bangers and put that out as a record," says Ma. "That would be a no-brainer, but what we really want to do is put down a document of where we were as artists at this point in time, and we want it to stand the test of time."
Which is to say, fans can expect not just the bass-heavy dancefloor numbers as seen in their remix work, but also mellower, more experimental cuts that might not necessarily be suited to a club. Essentially, the group is taking the same carefree, anything-goes approach that works so well in the live setting to the studio, along with a willingness to take risks and a fierce determination to steer clear of classification. "We're not constricting ourselves to anything, which is why I don't know what to call this thing we've got going on," asserts Ma. "To us, this is just the music we write. I don't know what to call it. I guess just call it Glitch Mob."

Glitch Mob was better a year or two ago. The past few times I have seen them all they play is the greatest hits. No re-edits or anything. I would rather see any of them on their own then as the mob anymore. I am more excited about Ooah and Boreta's new side projects like Panty Raid and Nasty Wayz.

I can't tell you how many people I have talked to who danced for the first time in their lives at a Glitch Mob show. The live experience is singular in this universe; the crowd goes bat-shit crazy and our eyes all roll back in our heads. What is created at a Glitch Mob show is greater than the sum of its parts; it is a new animal that you can only comprehend in the middle of the dance floor, soaking wet and yelling "YEAH!" 'cuz that is all that will come out of your mouth!
Seattle loves the Glitch Mob! FILTHY DIRTY FILTHY!

Rick Rollez has it absolutely right.
The Glitch Mob has gotten really lazy & uncreative about song selection ever since they started doing so many 3 and 4-man shows. They're all amazing producers, I don't know why they have to rely on their (well-worn) hits so heavily during live shows.

Hell Yeah! So good to see this gang of skilled producers getting some more well deserved coverage. As a producer, when I need little inspiration, I just check out what these guys got poppin off and I get 5-10 ideas in 5-10 minutes. If you have not heard much of their material, then seek it out, It's Bangin.

These guys have been touring their asses off as individuals and the Mob. Party | Slay | Party | Slay... i'd think they're super man on crack if they came out with new tracks every month. I once saw an interview of EdIT and the guy REALLY is a perfectionist with his music. It takes him time. And he's just one, there are four of them. Imagine the scheduling of Studio Time together (yeah you can do it via the net but you know its different when you're with the person and making stuff together). If they rely on their tried and tested stuff on stage for a little more...i say they deserve it. Its Top Notch Bangin Avant Garde Shiznit that can still communicate to the mass asses to get their shake on. (and it still hasn't reached the mass masses)
Cut the boys a little break and let em enjoy autopilot for a while. If you're tired of it, don't buy a ticket. Better yet buy a ticket and donate it to the people with no sense of music taste charity. Consider it humanitarian work.
