Ideal Industries, the global leader in electrical accessories, tools and equipment, has launched a Student Safe Isolation Kit, designed especially for trainee electricians.

The move follows a knowledge sharing programme that has seen Ideal Industries engage with further education providers to contribute training and equipment. It was clear that, although students are being taught safe isolation best practice, they are often not being provided with safe isolation equipment on site and find professional kits cost-prohibitive.

Brett Smyth, General Manager of Ideal Industries UK and EMEA explains: Poor safety behaviours around isolations is a real problem in the electrical industry, with only one in five electricians carrying a safe isolation kit in their tool bag.

We want to help address that by embedding safety best practice in the next generation of electricians coming through to site-based roles and we have been working with training providers to look at how we can help drive a cultural shift. Designing a Safe Isolation Kit that has everything a trainee electrician needs and ensuring its available at an accessible price is a significant milestone in this regard.

The new Student Safe Isolation Kit from Ideal Industries includes a Vol-Con Digital Voltage Tester, which tests for both AC and DV voltage. It provides a visual and audible alert for continuity and non-contact voltage and features low impedance to eliminate ghost voltages. Costing 58, the kit also include a medium circuit breaker lock out kit, a universal MCB lockout device, a safety padlock, re-usable lockout tags and a marker pen, all contained in a handy pouch.

The launch of the new kit has been welcomed by training providers, including Steve Willis Training Centres, which has been running a social media campaign to encourage safe isolations and working with Ideal Industries. Adrian Davey, trainer at Steve Willis Training Centres, comments: Having run my own electrical installation company, I know just how often the network can inadvertently be switched back to live, which is a significant danger, no matter how experienced the team might be.

The only way to protect operatives on site is to test for residual current, lock out and tag the isolation, and its important that anyone training in the electrical sector prioritises those good habits. Making a safe isolation kit specifically designed for and accessible to students is a very positive step in this process.

LANSING Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer said Wednesday she will not negotiate future stay-at-home orders with the Republican-led Legislature, despite pressure to speed plans to restart an economy she locked down to slow the coronavirus.

With tensions high at the Michigan Capitol, the Whitmer administration took the rare step of disclosing an internal email exchange with a top aide to Senate Majority Leader Mike Shirkey, who proposed extending an emergency declaration set to expire Friday by up to two weeks in exchange for a public promise by the governor to work with lawmakers on future orders.

The first-term Democrat, who has requested a 28-day extension, rejected the offer and told GOP leaders she believes she has the authority to continue emergency actions with or without their blessing.

"Michigan remains in a state of emergency regardless of the actions you decide to take or not take, Whitmer said in a response also released to reporters by her communications director.

Shirkey was extremely disappointed that he heard about the governors rejection based on her leaking an email to the press, said spokesperson Amber McCann. If there was any interest in his caucus working with the governor, it has evaporated.

In an interview with MIRS subscription news, Shirkey, R-Clarklake, suggested Whitmer is comfortable being a dictator and called the email release a double middle finger from the administration.

Shirkey and House Speaker Lee Chatfield, R-Levering, want a seat at the table as Whitmer finalizes her economic restart plan with a team of business and public health advisers.

Republicans argue the Legislature is an equal branch of government and lawmakers should have a say in the states response to the global pandemic. GOP leaders want the governor to continue relaxing rules for businesses and contend she needs their approval to take emergency actions beyond Thursday.

But Whitmer maintains she can continue to act unilaterally under a 1945 law that does not require legislative approval, a measure Senate Republicans voted to repeal last week in a symbolic move.

Republicans in the Legislature want to negotiate opening up sectors of our economy, Whitmer said later Wednesday in a COVID-19 briefing.

They're acting as though we're in the midst of a political problem. This is not a political problem that we have. This is a public health crisis. This is a global pandemic. We've already lost over 3,700 Michiganders, more than we lost in Vietnam.

Whitmer, who previewed her MI Safe Start plan on Monday and has promised to put the construction industry back to work by May 7, said she'llmake decisions "based on facts and science and data and risk." She has not offered a timeline for other industries that will reopen in phases depending on region and workplace type.

Lawmakers met in Lansing on Wednesday but took little action in a lengthy session that was interrupted by anti-Whitmer protesters. At least one demonstrator was reportedly wheeled out on a stretcher after forced removal by House sergeants.

Rep. Jason Sheppard, R-Temperance, blasted Whitmer in a Wednesday afternoon statement after negotiations with GOP leaders fell apart.

Shes not so much a governor as she is a minority leader who won an election, Sheppard said, describing what he called failures at the Unemployment Insurance Agency, where there have beenlong wait times for the states 1 million unemployed workers, as well as a concernsover a volunteer contact tracing contract awarded to a firm with Democratic ties that Whitmer quickly rescinded.

House Minority Leader Christine Greig, D-Farmington Hills, accused Republicans of playing partisan games amid the public health crisis.

The Legislature has important work to do, she said in a statement. We must focus on responding to this deadly pandemic and tackling a looming state budget crisis, rather than waste precious time trying to inhibit the governors ability to take steps necessary to protect and save lives during an emergency.

The House plans to meet again Thursday to continue negotiating for common-sense changes to help families who are struggling during this pandemic, said Gideon DAssandro, a spokesman for Chatfield and the GOP caucus.

Thousands of people have reached out to their state representatives because theyve been hurt by executive orders that go too far and make unfair one-size-fits-all decisions, DAssandro said.

Strong action is needed to combat this pandemic, but Michigans response has been a national outlier for the amount of harm it has caused and the amount of confusion and uncertainty it has created.

Critics contend the governor went too far with her lockdown orders and has not eased rules fast enough as the states coronavirus curve has appeared to flatten. Michigan has so far confirmed 40,399 cases of COVID-19 and 3,670 related deaths since March 10, including 1,137 additional cases and 103 deaths announced Wednesday.

Whitmers orders are unprecedented and violate the rights of business owners forced to close, according to a federal lawsuit filed Tuesday on behalf of Sothebys real estate firm in Birmingham, EPM landscaping of Ann Arbor, the Intraco exporting firm of Troy and its subsidiary Casite, along with Hillsdale Jewelers in Hillsdale.

For the first time in our States historyindeed, in our nations historythe State government is mass quarantining healthy people instead of the sick, attorneys with the Butzel Long law firm wrote in a complaint filed to the U.S. District Court in Grand Rapids.

As a free people, we have the unalienable right to pursue happiness, which includes the freedom to make our own choices about our safety and welfare without unconstitutional interference.

Plaintiffs want the federal court to declare Whitmers lockdown order unconstitutional and prohibit the state from enforcing it or similar mandates in the future.

The suit contends Whitmers orders, legal under state law, violate business owners federal right to engage in interstate commerce. Hillsdale Jewelers, for instance, has lost almost all its business a 99 percent drop in revenue because it can no longer import metals and stones used to make jewelry, sell products in store or perform repairs, attorneys claim.

In short, plaintiffs bring this lawsuit to define the limits of a states police power, the complaint said, noting stay-home order violators can face misdemeanor penalties of up to 90 days in jail and a fine of up to $500.

Whitmers office declined to discuss the suit, citing a policy of not commenting on pending litigation.

Its the latest in a slew of lawsuits against the administration in the midst of the pandemic, including complaints over Whitmers decisions to close landscaping businesses and prohibit motor boating.

She has since reversed some of those policies but contends they saved lives.

Whitmer prevailed inone state caseWednesday when Court of Claims Judge Christopher Murray rejected a motion to suspend her stay-at-home order in a lawsuit filed by five Michigan residents who claim the governor violated their due process rights.

Murray, who previously served as deputy legal counsel to Republican former Gov. John Engler, said Whitmer acted within her authority and that suspending the order would not serve the public interest.

Although the Court is painfully aware of the difficulties of living under the restrictions of these executive orders, those difficulties are temporary, while to those who contract the virus and cannot recover (and to their family members and friends), it is all too permanent, he wrote.

Attorney General Dana Nessel applauded the ruling, which her office called the first substantive decision on the constitutionality of the governors stay-home orders.

This pandemic has already takenmore than 3,600lives in Michigan andmanymorearound the world, Nessel said in a statement. Theprimary goal of the Stay Home, Stay Safe order has always been to protect human life.

The governor is facing growing pressure and potential legal action from both the federal government and the state Legislature.

U.S. Attorney General Bill Barr on Monday announced a new effort to monitor state and local directives that could be violating the constitutional rights and civil liberties of individual citizens.

The order is not specific to Michigan, but Barr drafted U.S. Attorney Matthew Schneider of the Eastern District of Michigan to help oversee the project.

Schneider and Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Eric Drieband will monitor state and local policies and, if necessary, take action to correct them, Barr said in a memo.

We do not want to unduly interfere with the important efforts of state and local officials to protect the public, he wrote. But the Constitution is not suspended in times of crisis. We must therefore be vigilant to ensure its protections are preserved.

In a Tuesday morning radio interview on WILS, Chatfield called Barrs memo a clear message, not just to Whitmer, but to leaders across the country.

He said that without negotiated changes to Whitmers stay-home order, the GOP-led Legislature may not extend the separate emergency declaration set to expire Friday.

Whitmer said her order, set to last through May 15, will remain in effect regardless. But a legislative extension would continue to protect health care workers from any legal liability they may face for services performed at the states request.

It could be something that the judicial branch needs to get involved in, so were prepared for that, Chatfield told MLive.com Tuesday.

GOP leaders have not spelled out their wish list, but Senate Republicans on Tuesday adopted a resolution urging the governor to allow health care providers to resume elective surgeries she put on hold last month.

Giving hospitals the freedom to determine their capacity to handle elective procedures, is a key step in improving the financial stability of hospitals, said the resolution, sponsored by Sen. Lana Theis, R-Brighton.

In her Wednesday briefing, Whitmer said she is considering changes to her March 20 order prohibiting non-essential medical procedures but drew a distinction between time-sensitive medical care like cancer treatments, non-urgent care like hip replacements and truly elective cosmetic surgeries.

Weve been having intensive conversations with our public health experts as well as our leadership in our various hospitals systems, and I do think there is going to be somethingin the coming days on that front, the governor said.

The House on Wednesday unanimously approved separate legislation that would require hospitals to notify first responders if a patient they transported later tests positive for COVID-19.

A new oversight committee established with subpoena power to review Whitmers handling of the pandemic also met for the first time in Lansing.

The crisis has cost lives, jobs and it will cost our economy and government budgets billions of dollars, Sen. Aric Nesbitt, R-Lawton, suggesting the oversight process will help Michigan identify what has and has not worked so far.

We have a responsibility to develop the best Michigan model possible for handling this crisis and the next one, he said. Hopefully there isnt a next one, but in the course of human events, pandemics happen, and we need to be prepared better.

Theatr Clwyd has been treading two paths in recent times. The first has stemmed from a demand from funding partners to become more commercial, which has come as our local authority funding has been cut by 40% over the past five years. The second path is one we have been determined to take and what has interested me most about working in theatre and theatre buildings for the past nine years: to help people. This has directly informed how we are working during the current pandemic, working to support others wherever we can.

With artistic director Tamara Harvey, our first business plan as a newly formed leadership team in 2016 stated our mission (which becomes ever more important to us): To make the world a happier place, one moment at a time.

Our time at Theatr Clwyd has coincided with the growth in understanding around health and well-being in the UK, backed up by an extraordinary piece of legislation in Wales called the Well-Being of Future Generations Act, which is the first of its kind worldwide, so Im told.

The act aims to drive decisions, and actions, for the benefit of all, not the few. It doesnt just focus on present day, but the communities of the future, the people who will be affected by our actions and who will inherit the consequences of our decisions.

It includes seven well-being goals with one specifically mentioning culture. Others include equality, resilience, health and prosperity and the aim is to ensure that every individual and business with influence takes responsibility for the well-being of communities and the world around us.

Culture is not just good for peoples general health it is vital for supporting people with specific health conditions

Well-being isnt just medical it is much wider-ranging than that. We all know that arts, culture or sport can keep us buoyant, help us relax, allow us to socialise and find common ground. It is also clear that they are not used anywhere near enough by policymakers despite the well-being act.

Culture is not just good for peoples general health, it is increasingly vital for supporting people with specific health conditions. So, we have developed a referral programme, in partnership with the North Wales Health Board (Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board) to work in specialised areas.

Why work so closely with the NHS? Because we found a common ground our health board, having a Creative Well department, was looking to shift some of the pressures on its services over the long term we were looking at how to harness the skills of our trained arts practitioners to truly make a difference in our communities. Four years on, it is still early days. It is still hard work: two more operationally different sectors than health and arts would be hard to find, but nothing worthwhile is easy to achieve.

Our singing teachers have received medical training and deliver weekly workshops for patients with chronic lung disease. We run groups where the NHS refers those dealing with onset memory loss to weekly creative sessions where they and their carers create new memories one week gilding with our scenic artists, the next getting an exclusive rehearsal sharing from the company of Milky Peaks (Seiriol Davies new musical, which we will open as soon as we can after lockdown).

There is a mental health referral group, Singing for the Soul, Dance for Parkinsons, referral projects with Children and Adolescent Mental Health Services) and a host of other strands. Then there is everything in between the general and the medical well-being that the NHS partnership has led to: work with local refugees, with families eligible for free school meals, with social services, police and law courts, and drug and alcohol support teams. Many of these help frontline workers as part of preventative action, easing the pressure on already strained services.

Weve been building this work and these partnerships for the past four years alongside financial resilience our other main public funder, the Arts Council of Wales, has not mentioned the term commercial viability, instead resilience is the key word. But now, with the UK and much of the rest of the world in lockdown and our theatres dark, what remains?

We cant sell tickets or food, wine, beer, ice creams or programmes. Indeed, as a colleague at the Arts Council of Wales noted, it is the organisations that have become most financially resilient that are now most at risk as their business models are collapsing under lockdown. It turns out that financial resilience isnt so resilient after all.

What remains is our sense of duty to support our communities and we wouldnt be able to do it as we are in this moment, were it not for the past four years of work.

Our theatre building is now the major centre in north-east Wales for blood donations as the NHS changes the way it keeps donor levels up (there was not one spare slot during the first week) and we are on standby to be a training facility should it need to train admin staff for emergency ward support.

Members of our wardrobe team are ready to help make scrubs when needed, while our scenic construction and floor electrician teams are on standby to fit up one of the field hospitals at the local leisure centre ahead of the predicted peak in North Wales in four to five weeks time. We couldnt easily have offered this support if we werent in partnership with the NHS already.

All our regular weekly sessions have moved online, but the most vulnerable of our groups (many elderly, with no access to online platforms) also get weekly phone calls and creative packages dropped at their doors. Alongside this, our freelance artists who are still on payroll have delivered content for Theatr Clwyd Together/Theatr Clwyd Ynghyd, our creative digital response during lockdown.

We have been working with food charities to distribute food from our cafes stores to those most in need as well as creative packs to keep the young people in those families occupied and active.

And it isnt just Theatr Clwyd of course many others are doing similar things. Venue Cymru down the road has become a field hospital it is now the front line.

Slung Low has been delivering community work at a different level from many of us for years. It is now the main food distribution centre for its area of Leeds, which has 20,000 residents and is one of the most financially deprived areas of the city.

Eric Martin is in lockdown, holed up at his studio in Newport, self-isolating from his family after developing a persistent cough.

The Cardiff-born musician is protecting himself and his loved ones. Given he suffers with asthma, hes not taking any chances.

Now living in London, he found himself at his studio in south Wales when Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced the UK was going into lockdown.

I came down to the studio before lockdown measures were put in place, but then I developed a few symptoms so decided to sit down here for a bit and do a few things around the studio, he says.

This is the trouble now, everyone is stressing that theyve got it. The common cold hasnt gone away, the flu hasnt gone away, none of these things are going away. So when we get the symptoms now, we think its coronavirus, dont we?

You have a cough, you think, Bloody hell, its Covid. A lot of it is psychological. But just to be on the safe side, I decided not to go back to the family in London just yet, so Im sat here in Newport isolating myself. I have asthma as well, so its difficult to tell when my chest is feeling the way its feeling.

The name Eric Martin my not be immediately obvious to those outside the circles of electronic music, but in the guise of MC Eric of Technotronic he scored some of the biggest hits of the late 1980s and early 1990s.

Technotronics debut single and biggest hit, the worldwide dancefloor filler Pump Up The Jam, which sold 3.5 million copies worldwide, propelled him and his band to the upper echelons of global fame.

For three years, between 1989 and 1991, Technotronic scored six UK top 20 hits, performed in front of thousands at the largest arenas, appeared on the biggest TV shows and supported the woman who was then undisputed Queen of Pop Madonna, on her Blonde Ambition world tour.

Not bad for a young lad who grew up the youngest in a family of 13 in a terraced house adjacent to the River Taff in Cardiff.

But then its been some journey for Eric Martin through plenty of highs and lows but now, at 49, hes found peace with his past and he is ready to revisit the heady days when he pushed the musical envelope as a dance music pioneer.

However, he could count himself lucky to have had a career at all. There might not have been any future for the young Eric when he almost met an untimely end due to a traumatic incident which has stayed with him his whole life.

On his third birthday he nearly drowned in the Taff, but survived thanks to his teenage brother, who jumped in to rescue him.

Me and and a neighbours kid, who was about the same age as me, we both wandered across the road towards the river, he recalls.

This was 1973, it was the days before the banks of the Taff were reinforced with concrete after the flooding in Cardiff in the late 1970s. Back then the bank was grass and mud. All that was there were railings that you could climb through.

One of my toys fell into the river and I tried to get it. At that age you have no concept of danger. I slipped and fell in.

Alerted that he was in the water, his 14-year-old brother Christopher ran across the road and dived into the river to rescue him.

It was almost a double tragedy.

The tide was high and it was very fast-flowing, he remembers. When Christopher jumped in, he almost died too. It was a very scary, scary thing.

Erics brother was awarded an accolade for valour by Cardiffs Lord Mayor and the pair ended up in the local newspaper as a result.

Although he was very young, Eric confides the incident has haunted him his whole life.

It was frightening, really frightening, and Ive suffered with recurring nightmares ever since, he says. Ive received counselling because of it. It doesnt happen as much as it used to. I might get it maybe once a year. But when I do its horrible, like a form of PTSD.

The frightening thing is that its the same dream every time and apparently thats quite rare for it to be exactly the same dream every time.

I remember one day when I was about nine, talking to my mother about the dream, and she said, Eric you cant really remember that day, can you?. When I told her that I could, she asked me what I was wearing and I told her right down to the colour of the socks I had on. She couldnt believe it. She was in shock and said that was exactly what I was wearing.

The dream starts on the riverbed and my feet are in stuck in the mud. Ive got the mind of whatever age Im at when Im having the dream, but the body of a three-year-old. My body isnt strong enough to get me out. The dream is so traumatic, it takes a few days to recover from each one.

When I asked him what his childhood was like growing up in 1970s Cardiff, he answers: If you would ask me 20 years ago you probably would have got a different answer, but with age comes reflection.

I grew up in a house on Fitzhamon Embankment, which is still the family home my sister has it now, he says. There were 13 of us and I was the youngest. However, the beauty of it is that at no one time were we all there. There are 22 years difference in age between myself and my oldest sibling.

My childhood was happy up to a point. My dad died in 1978 from complications due to diabetes and that rocked the family to its core. In those days the man was the breadwinner, the knowledge base, or at least thats what it was perceived to be.

To a point that was the beginning of the end for me, because I was sent everywhere after that. Thats why people have always had a difficult time pinpointing where Im from when they talk to me.

I am Cardiff born and bred and proud as hell of my roots. Ive always had my ties in Cardiff. I have family members who have never left. But it was very hard on my mother being widowed with 13 kids. It was very difficult for her.

My mums siblings and my fathers siblings did what they could to help us all. As a result I was sent everywhere. I grew up for the most part between Cardiff and London.

London was where I finished my schooling, staying with relatives. Then there was a stint in New York and a stint in Jamaica, but always with members of the family, aunts and uncles.

Returning to the Welsh capital in the mid-1980s after finishing school, he started to find his feet musically. There he found one nation under a groove and a city marching to the sound to its own beat as the rise of rap, hip hop and the nascent house music scene filled his head with endless possibilities.

I was 15 years old and said to myself, This is my direction, this is what I want to do, he recalls. I felt like I was a part of a movement. I wasnt alone. It seemed like everyone in the city wanted to be a breakdancer, a graffiti artist, a DJ or an MC.

Hip hop culture took over UK and I was really pleased to be a part of the initial movement in Wales.

Hooking up with another young rising star from Cardiff, renowned DJ and producer DJ Jaffa, the pair headed to London. Finding themselves a manager and recording a few demos, they signed a deal with Jive Records under the name Just The Duce, putting out two tracks on a compilation called Def Reggae.

When the duos two-year contract ran out, Jaffa returned to Cardiff, while Eric stayed in London, where he was about to get his big break when he began working in Jive Records recording studio.

I was always at the studio and I was persistent, so they let me become a junior programmer, he recalls.

It was there he honed his skills and his formative musical education was formed making connections and learning at first hand - be it production or synths and guitars.

I was able to to sit in on some really cool sessions with producers like D-Mob, Paul Schroeder and Dave Stewart, all of those people who were at the top of their game. At the time I was still only a kid, still a teenager.

When you see somebody at the top, it doesnt seem as far away as it actually is.

The mid to late 1980s was a boom time for British hip hop, rap and the emerging house scene and Eric wanted in. He never doubted his opportunity would come calling.

Over the years Ive been asked things like, Did you know you were going to make it?, Did you ever doubt yourself?. To be honest with you, Im not a professional boxer, I didnt believe I was going to be champion of the world, it wasnt like that. It was literally a case of not even considering that there was not a place at the table for me.

I wish I could look back and say, Yeah, the winds were blowing in from the left and I had 2 in my pocket, but the truth of the matter is I did not even consider failure.

People like me were getting deals and they were putting tracks out. The Cookie Crew, The London Posse, all of these different people who were my age, who were from the same sort background as me, so I never considered that it couldnt be done.

Meeting Belgian musician and producer Jo Bogaert at the studio, the seed was sown for what would quickly blossom into Technotronic.

Jo was milling around the studios, looking for people to write with. He had ideas in his head which he wanted to come to fruition and he was looking for something other than what he was getting in Belgium, recalls Eric. I was put in a room with him and we played around with a few things and had some great conversations. We talked about what bands each of us liked, what sort of influences we had.

I was really pleased he liked black music. He was the first Belgian Id ever met; to that point the only thing Id learnt about Belgium was King Leopold, he laughs. Jo was a big blues fan and that was really cool because I grew up with blues and gospel, so we had some common ground.

Also being in the studio had given me lots of confidence. I knew my way around a studio and I really believed in myself.

Then Jo had to fly back to Belgium, so I thought that was the end of that. However, a few weeks later I was asked to fly to Belgium to work with him and thats how it all kicked off.

Eric is quick to point out that the idea of Technotronic came from Jo. And as far as calling cards were concerned, there was no greater introduction to Technotronic than their colossal debut single, Pump Up The Jam the all-conquering dancefloor anthem that ruled the charts as the 1980s turned into the 1990s.

As a mighty statement of intent, as a new decade dawned, it was pretty irresistible. Eric recalls the moment he first heard the track in its raw form.

Pump Up The Jam was first released in the clubs as an instrumental, he recalls. I was in a club in Antwerp when I first heard it played. When I saw the response, it was incredible.

Then I heard the vocals going down and the hairs on the back of my neck stood on end. I said, My God, thats astonishing. I guess everyone has one of those moments in their lifetime. That was my moment.

Pump Up The Jam is the opening track on Technotronics debut album of the same name. It reached number two in the UK in 1989 (kept off the top spot for two weeks by Black Boxs Ride On Time) and hit the same spot in the American Billboard Hot 100 in early 1990.

The song was later certified triple platinum, selling three and a half million copies globally. Despite falling short of the top spot on both sides of the Atlantic, it scored number ones in Belgium, Iceland, Portugal and Spain.

Described as a fusion of hip hop and deep house, its an early example of the hip house genre and is seen as the first house song to become a hit in the US.

Everything that we were doing during the debut album project was driving me insane, Eric remembers. I was listening to cassette tapes in the car after every session, sitting there thinking, This is amazing music, I hope they get this on the radio. I would love it if it got on Radio 1, imagine that.

There was some initial controversy when it was discovered that model Felly lip-synched the vocals in the video to accompany the song. The vocals were actually performed by the third member of Technotronic, beside Jo Bogaert and MC Eric, Belgian MC Ya Kid K. As a result, the artwork to the bands debut album, which had featured a picture of Felly, was changed to feature Ya Kid K instead. The album was a multi-million-selling success, selling an eye-watering 14 million copies worldwide.

The three of us just clicked, says Eric. The dynamic, that chemistry, I vividly remember that feeling when we were about to take on the world.

As Technotronic scored hit after hit with follow up singles Get Up! (Before The Night Is Over) and this Beat Is Technotronic, the Welsh musician readily admits he was living the dream.

The youngster was soon to experience how hard he was to be worked when he recalls the story of his first time in America and an intervention from his worried mum back home.

It was a strange time, he recalls. My mother never interfered with my business, except one time. When we first got to America they sat Ya Kid K and me in a limo they gave us two itineraries. Were looking through them and I kept seeing the letters TB. And I thought, What is that, is that like To Be Confirmed? Thats tbc, whats TB?. So the record company guys said, Oh yeah, were going to train you to go to the toilet, TB stands for toilet break.

The itinerary was rammed. You got to remember Pump Up The Jam was pretty much the biggest song in the world at the time. The itinerary was so mad within about two months I had lost so much weight, my mother saw me on television and she made a phone call to the manager and said, Send him home, youre working him to the bone, you should be ashamed of yourself.

When youre young you just get on with it, dont you? Youre not aware youre not eating enough, until your mother gets involved, he laughs.

When I ask him about the high point of the years with Technotronic, hes quick to pick out one poignant moment which meant so much to him the first time he appeared on Top of the Pops.

This wont mean much to a lot of younger people now, but Top of the Pops was everything, he says. It was the only music show on television to watch. And everybody watched it. It was an event. All the family sat down to watch Top of the Pops on a Thursday night.

I remember one day when my dad was still alive and I dont have many memories of my dad, but this was one of them. He called everyone downstairs and said, Ruth is on television. He thought hed seen my sister, who was a jazz singer in London at the time, on Top of the Pops. We all came running but it wasnt her. He was so disappointed.

I remember I was sitting on his lap and saying to him, Ill get on Top of the Pops, Dad. This was in 1976, so I was six years old, but in the end I did get there and do it for him.

When I finally got on Top of the Pops I was going nuts, he adds. We were in New York and I was like, Im flying home, man, to do Top of the Pops (its worth noting that he sounds just as excited relaying this to me as he must have 30 years earlier).

The rest of the crew were like, Top of the what, who?. They didnt understand what it meant to me, but by that time wed already had a number one in a few different countries, so they thought it was quite strange that I desperately needed to fly home to do this Top of the Pops.

But for me and to anyone else in the crew who were British, they understood why it was such a big deal. Doing Top of the Pops for the first time as a youngster was incredible.

There were so many other highs as well, like appearing on Saturday Night Live in the US. Every country had its own big show back then and I think we must have done them all.

A few days after his first Top of the Pops appearance, where Technotronic performed the the single Get Up!, he was back at the BBC for an interview with a very young Phillip Schofield on much-loved Saturday mornings kids show Going Live! Their next meeting was to be very different.

A few weeks after being on the show I saw Phillip on Goldhawk Road in Shepherds Bush, which is near to the old BBC Television Centre in White City where they filmed Going Live! Eric recalls. Hes pulled into a petrol station on Goldhawk Road, which is a mixed-race neighbourhood leaning more towards the black side of things.

Our office was just round the corner, so when I saw him I shouted out, Hey whats up, man?. He was like (sounds terrified) Im fine, Im fine. He didnt even look at me. I was like, Phil, its Eric, Technotronic, Im black on weekdays, man, he laughs. You should have seen his face. He was then all, Oh hi. Whats up, how you doing?. I tell you, its as funny now as it was back then.

If life was surreal enough, it was to take a turn for the unreal when a phone call out of the blue to the bands manager rocked their world.

We were in America touring and enjoying the success of the album when our manager got a phone call from Madonnas manager Freddy DeMann. At the time he was Madonna and Michael Jacksons manager. He informed our manager that Madonna was in love with our album. Apparently she used it to do aerobics to. She also wanted to know if we would like to go on tour with her.

The tour in question, the Blonde Ambition tour, which included three sold-out shows at Wembley Stadium in July 1990, was the Queen of Pop at the height of her fame. Unsurprisingly, when they finally realised the phone call wasnt a hoax, Technotronic were more than ready to be caught in the eye of this particularly welcome storm, happy to be picked up and dragged along in the superstars sizeable wake.

I said to our manager, Why are you even asking us, I hope you said yes immediately.

I was a fan of Madonna. I liked that she was a force of nature, one incredible track after the next. And she insisted that we would be the only support. So we did it without hesitation.

Obviously her camp knew there were tickets going to be sold because we were on it. So it was a clever move.

Everything Eric had ever wanted had come true, but he tells me what was more important to him than global success was being able to look after those who he loved.

Being able to do right by my family, he says. My mother was quite sick for a number of years, so being able to get her the care that she needed and see to that she was well, being able to make sure the house was paid off. They were the high points. Thats what I was raised for. Family has always been close. Being the youngest, I was always a mummys boy.

Yes, I could go out with my mates. I could wake up in the morning and say, Hey, lets go shopping in New York and just fly there and have a shop. None of that resonates with your soul.

So, yeah, youd be happy to come home with some new sneakers from Sixth Avenue, but that wont feel anything like the feeling of your mother sitting you down and telling you, Im well, son, the house is paid off, I love you. Thats a different level.

But thats all my family in general. Thats what were all like. As the youngest sibling, I was able to watch my older siblings showing that same kind of benevolence and kindness.

When the end arrived for Eric and Technotronic after three years of unbroken success, it ended with rancour and a row over the way the musicians bandmate Ya Kid K, who was then about to have Erics child after the two had formed a relationship, was being treated. As a result the Welshman left the group. A year later the Technotronic project fell apart.

As much as there was success in abundance for Eric, there was something of a heavy burden to pay. He spent many years coming to terms with seeing the best and worst of humanity at close quarters.

What Eric tells me reminds me of this oft-quoted maxim: The music business is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free and good men die like dogs. Theres also a negative side.

He says: The significance of those songs, what they meant then and how theyve stood the test of time, I feel grateful and humble, but Im also just as baffled by it as anyone else.

But when you talk about fame and how it affects certain people, you dont know the true character of someone until they have everything. Thats when you find out the true character.

Since those days its been a journey of self-educating. I was young when I had all this success, but there wasnt anything in place to let you understand what you are going through. Who else was a pop star around me? It wasnt like I was an electrician so I could go and talk to my brothers mate down the road, who was an electrician. It was difficult for me.

I didnt realise I was surrounded by a small percentage of honest people and a much larger percentage of people who had their own agenda. These were horrible, horrible people.

He describes the financial legacy of those days as being signed up and stitched up. Of unscrupulous dealings behind the scenes.

I was young and impressionable, he adds. Its a well-worn story. The way I explain it is this to the average dude I earned a lot of money. If you sat that same average dude down and told him, Okay I got this much, but they got this much, then that average dude would be ready to take up arms on your behalf. The difference was massive.

They could never get away with those deals now. So much exploitation took place in the 1980s and 1990s, but I dont want to come across like Im complaining, because I dont think like that. Everything I have done has been a part of my journey.

Eric was only 19 when global fame came calling. He willingly admits his experiences left him with serious trust issues after leaving the group.

I remember thinking back then that these people have given me something I never used to have, theyve given me scepticism. I used to take people on face value. Im a loving person. But then I started looking at people and not giving them the benefit of the doubt, asking myself what they wanted. Its a horrible way to behave and thats when you realise you need time out.

He concedes: It did take some time for the stigma of being part of such a huge machine to wear off. But I was back in the studio within months doing my own thing.

Warmer weather is upon us and with more time at home, you may be thinking about how to upgrade your outdoor setup. Chances are, youre also thinking about integrated smart home control into the mix. However, putting it all together into a dependable (and affordable) build can be a tricky proposition. Weve put together a guide below that walks you through putting together a voice-controlled lighting system this summer for HomeKit, Alexa, and Google Assistant users. If youre not ready to hand over control just yet, theres something for you too. Hit the jump to get started.

Theres primarily two schools of thought when it comes to building out an affordable smart home lighting system. For those going the trendy route, having a nice set of outdoor string lights can be a great way to add ambiance to any setup. Making sure you go with a weatherproof build is imperative to ensuring that your setup can withstand the summer rains.

Here are a few options depending on the length you require:

Those that would prefer to light a larger section of trees or your house will want to consider something like this nifty accessory. You can put two light bulbs of your choice, likely something like this, and illuminate your space.

The key to automating on a budget is using lighting solutions that have a standard household plug. Investing in smart bulbs, such as Philips Hue certainly is an option for some, but youll end up paying much more upfront with less flexibility.

For Apple users looking to automate on a budget and bring Siri control into the mix, a great option is the meross Smart Outdoor Plug.

Aside from HomeKit control one of the defining features here is a dual-outlet design, which is a big bonus for outdoor setups. This will give you more flexibility when controlling various lights around your outdoor space.

TP-Links Kasa lineup includes its own dual-outlet smart plug thats suitable for these situations. Alongside a waterproof design and a built-in sensor for automatic scheduling, this particular plug arrives with an IP64-rated design with Wi-Fi range up to 300-feet.

While the TP-Link option above is compatible with Alexa, as well, theres one particular alternative worth calling out. Century makes a 3-outlet outdoor smart plug that delivers another level of functionality. Instead of being limited to two outlets, adding a third brings more flexibility and the option of controlling additional lights if needed.

If youre unable or not ready for a full-blown smart home setup, there are alternatives. Consider reaching for a mechanical outdoor timer instead. This option from Century has 48 setting options and two 3-prong grounded outlets. Youll obviously miss out on the smartphone and voice controls, but it will still get the job done otherwise.

Looking to outfit your house with additional automation this year? Be sure to check out our previous guide to the best smart plugs of 2020 so far for more.

Welcome Mat: Be in the know on recycling - The Detroit News

Dublin, April 29, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "COVID-19 Impact on the Smart Lighting Market by Offering (Hardware, Software and Services), Installation Type (New Installations and Retrofit Installations), End-Use Application (Indoor and Outdoor), and Region - Global Forecast to 2025" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

Post COVID-19, the smart lighting market is valued at USD 9.4 billion in 2020 ((a drop by ~15% as compared to the market size estimated for 2020 Pre-COVID-19)) and is projected to reach USD 24.2 billion by 2025; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 20.9% during the forecast period.

Increasing demand for specialty lighting applications to drive the growth of the smart lighting market.

The projection for 2025 is estimated to be down by 21% as compared to pre-COVID-19 estimation. The major factors driving the growth of the smart lighting market include increasing demand for specialty lighting applications such as horticulture and UV disinfection lighting, the need for a large number of healthcare facilities to treat an increasing number of patients, and rising demand for sterile manufacturing areas in the pharmaceuticals industry.

Smart lighting market for services to grow at the highest CAGR between 2020 and 2025.

The services segment is expected to be adversely impacted as it goes hand-in-hand with that of hardware. However, the impact would be relatively less owing to the nature of the offering, which can be controlled remotely (online) to a great extent. The market for services is expected to increase by 2021 due to the rising construction of hospitals and clean rooms, which will further drive the demand for support and maintenance services.

Indoor lighting to hold a larger share of the smart lighting market during the forecast period.

The indoor lighting application segment holds a larger share in the smart lighting industry. The impact of COVID-19 on residential lighting sales is expected to be on a lower side as compared with other/outdoor applications. As most of the activities in commercial buildings are now shifting indoors, the demand for smart lighting in the residential segment has scope to increase.

The smart lighting industry in APAC expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period.

The smart lighting market in APAC is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. This growth is attributed to rapid infrastructure building activities, mainly in China and India, where smart lighting paves the way for the modernization of infrastructure. Moreover, China has started to recover from the pandemic faster than any other country.

In the process of determining and verifying the market size for several segments and subsegments gathered through secondary research, extensive primary interviews have been conducted with the key experts.

Gov. Larry Hogan encouraged everyone to participate in showing their gratitude for front line workers and medical professionals.

ANNAPOLIS, Md. While they are working tirelessly to help save lives, many around the country have shown their appreciation for health care workers during the pandemic. Led by Gov. Larry Hogan, Maryland extended that gratitude even more with an official day in their honor on Saturday.

Health Care Heroes Day is Saturday in Maryland saw the Government House and the Maryland State House in Annapolis both were lit up blue come evening time.

Beyond lighting up the Maryland State House and Government House (governor's mansion), Hogan also encouraged residents to turn on blue lights in front of their homes or decorating their outdoor spaces.

Many commercial buildings joined the effort around the state, decorating windows with thank you notes and lighting county buildings. The Capital Wheel at the National Harbor is another landmark lighting up, too.

D.C. held a similar honorary day three weeks ago, showing doctors, nurses, EMTs and first responders how much residents appreciate them.

Hogan said the move is just one-way health care workers can see how much those around the country rely on them.

"During this pandemic, our health care workers, including our doctors, nurses, EMTs and first responders, have proven themselves to be not just essential workers, but front-line heroes," Hogan said.
