Credit Unions are community savings and loans co-operatives, owned and run by the members. Membership is available to anyone who lives or works within Wigan Borough.
Members save with Unify and those savings are then used to give low cost loans to members.
Any profits at the end of the financial year are given back to the members in the form of an annual dividend. In 2010 the dividend was 2.5%. All members receive the same dividend and junior members are paid interest on savings equal to the adult members dividend
Unify Credit Union was established in 2002 by the formation of three small community credit unions. In 2009 the last remaining community credit union, Worsley Mesnes Credit Union, joined forces with Union making Unify the largest credit union in Wigan Borough.
In 2012 Unify Credit Union expanded its services into Chorley.

The following is a true account of my experience getting a tattoo from Matthew Mattison at The Little Tattoo Shoppe in Portland, Oregon.
The first thing I noticed when I got in the cold dark car was how shaky my hands were. My arm was smarting and my heart pounding. What just happened I thought, what just happened? My breath coming faster, making a small circle in the foggy window. Then, Drive, just drive, quickly.
As I made my way down the avenue so many emotions flooded me. Shame, anger, confusion, hurt. How had I misread this situation so badly? How could I be such an idiot? So naive. Did I bring it on myself? My cheeks burned with heat, my eyes burned with tears. I felt responsible, taken advantage of, victimized.
I had been getting tattoos from this man for years. I had recommended him to friends and strangers. Just a month before, on the anniversary of my mother's death, I sat with him as he tattooed a beautiful portrait of my mother on my arm as my dad and brother watched from the dark burgundy sofa in his waiting area.
Getting tattoos was never something I took lightly. Ever since I was a child I'd secretly wanted a tattoo. I thought they were beautiful and interesting, like wearing a story on your skin. But I knew that people had negative associations with tattoos. I waited until I was out of college to get my first ink. One day I hopped into my tiny white Toyota and drove down to Venice Beach. After rollerblading along the oceanfront, past street performers, drummers and wildly colored murals, I stopped at a tiny tattoo shop and had a dime sized sun tattooed on my ankle.
It wasn't until years later and two cross-country moves that I decided I wanted another tattoo. I thought long and hard about what would be most meaningful to me, I discussed it with my husband, I researched tattoo artists and their different styles. Finally, after hearing M's name mentioned several times I stopped by the shop where he was working at the time. As I climbed the long flight of stairs up to the attic where he tattooed, I could hear thumping music and the buzz of the tattoo machines.
M is a tall, broad man who usually wears black jeans and a black t-shirt. He has long black, wavy hair that is lightly streaked with silver strands. He has a broad face and light eyes. What I've learned about him over the years: we are the same age, born in the same month just days apart. He was a minority where he grew up and thus suffered a great deal of prejudice and, at times, violence. M was raised by his birth mother and stepfather. He learned to lie, and lie well, as a child to protect himself. He didn't meet his real father until he was an adult and it was a disappointing experience. He is married and claims to be in love with his wife.
Every time I have sat for a tattoo with M, we've spent the time talking about his life, my life, and what it's like to be a tattoo artist. I've always been fascinated by the tattoo culture. The last two times I saw M he told me about his more wild clients and about some of his married female clients who wanted to show him their breasts and offered to go down on him. That these things actually happened blew me away. I asked a lot of questions. How did these women justify this behavior? And, How do you go home to your wife after having some other woman go down on you?
M had all of the answers worked out. He claimed that these women just wanted to spice up their sex lives by having a safe extra-marital encounter. Would you feel guilty for getting a massage? he asked me as he outlined a flower on my forearm. What your husband doesn't know won't hurt him, he justified. I don't tell my wife because I love her and it would ruin our marriage.
All of these conversations had always occurred during the day, while the shop was filled with people coming in and out requesting appointments, pouring over photos of his work. It felt safe. I thought we were simply discussing fantasies, and yes, I did share a couple of fantasies of my own, but always told him that they were just that–something I thought about in my imagination, something that made me want my husband all the more. Nothing I would ever actually do.
So when I went to M's new shop in northeast Portland to have the finishing touches done on the portrait of my mother, I was unprepared for what happened. It was a 6pm appointment on a Friday night. I'd never been to his shop in the evening. When I walked in the tiny reception area was packed. There were two other tattoo artists finishing up their clients.
M said hello to me and asked me to remind him what we would be working on during this appointment. I told him we'd be finishing up the portrait and that I had a $100 to work with. He smiled and said, Well, we can figure out alternate forms of payment if you go overtime.
I laughed at M and waited on the sofa as one by one everyone left the shop. I thought This is weird, I've never been here at night and then, Oh it's fine, it's M. First mistake. There was the tiniest alarm bell that went off in my head and I ignored it. This is someone I'd known for years, someone who had met my husband, my dad, my brother. He had never given me reason to think he was not trustworthy
When everyone was gone, M sat down next to me on the sofa and put his arm around me. Again I thought Weird, what's up with this? He said softly, looking straight ahead, I don't know if you have enough money for this tattoo, but we can work something out. I laughed him off, stood up quickly and pointed to his work station. Let's get to work, man.
I sat down at his station and M immediately steered the conversation toward sex and fantasies. At first, thinking that this was our usual banter, I played along. Second mistake. Before I knew it, M was sweating and fondling himself over his jeans. Would you ever suck my cock? he asked in a joking tone. In a terse voice I said, I'm sure it's lovely, but no, I'm married and I've got three small kids and I'm not up for anything like that. No way.
I then tried to change the subject. I started talking quickly about my husband's vasectomy and how it may or may not have been successful and about my fear of getting pregnant. Pregnancy, I thought, that has got to be the least sexy topic in the world. I'll talk about that. I talked on and on about my kids and pregnancy and he continued to work on my arm as I kept my eyes away from the obvious bulge in his pants.
But again he steered the conversation back to sex and his proposition, urging me to try something new, telling me that my husband would never know, that it was no big deal. My feeling of dread and discomfort grew as I continued to try to talk about neutral subjects. My brain was telling me that this was not right, but my heart, the part of that had grown close to this man by both the hours of time we'd spent together and the intimacy of our conversations kept telling me that it was all a joke, this couldn't be for real.
But then M handed me his phone and asked me to adjust his Facebook settings because his ringer was going off every time someone commented on his wall. When I turned over the phone I saw a collection of twenty or more videos of young women in various stages of undress giving him head. Most of the women were topless, some pierced, some tattooed. I don't want to see this I said curtly, putting the phone down. Oh, come on, he said, it's hot. And now you've seen my cock. That makes me so happy.
FUCK, I thought. Fuck, this is bad. I wanted to get out, but he had my arm pinned down and had a needle to my skin. He had locked the door of the shop and pulled the curtains. The street was dark, and the pub next door was loud. No one would hear me even if I screamed. Keep it light, keep it light, I thought. I was afraid that if I got up abruptly he would get even more aroused and come after me. I was afraid that if I got aggressive with him he would get violent. This person that I thought I knew was definitely not who I thought he was. My head was swimming.
Look, he said, why don't you just sit there and watch me jerk off? I shook my head no. We don't have feelings for each other, he went on, his forehead shiny with sweat, I mean, you're a groovy lady and everything, but there are no feelings between us, so what's the big deal? I said, M, just finish the tattoo. I'm not going to touch your cock, look at your cock or do anything like that, so just drop it. He stopped, looked at my face and said, But your lips are so pretty, and you have such nice teeth…
For another thirty minutes he continued to harass me. At one point he even started to unbutton his pants. I realized that this person whom I'd come to trust and to even think of as a friend didn't care about me at all. I was just another object, another woman who might be manipulated into giving him sexual favors. All of the hours he'd spent telling me about his life, about his pets and his wife, were only to build trust, to make me believe he was a decent guy. But I could see by the sheer number of videos he had saved in his iPhone Vault app that there were many young women who fell for this manipulation. My heart hurt for these women.
The tattoo was finally complete. M followed me to the front door, asked one more time if I would just sit in the corner and watch him jerk off. I have never been so happy to feel the weight of a lock in my hands as I turned it and walked out of that shop
I clutched my arms to my chest, felt my arm that was covered with cotton and tape under my jacket. The tattoo of my mother's young face, of her beautiful, warm eyes under my hand. I would have this experience attached to that portrait forever. I would have the memory of this betrayal forever. My hands shook, my heart pounding. I felt a chill on my hot face, saw my breath on the cold air. I got into my car and drove home.
After receiving vitriolic emails from Matthew Mattison's friends that claim I fictionalized what happened at The Little Tattoo Shoppe and express disbelief that he could have behaved this way, I have decided to include in the comments section Matthew's apology and admission of wrong doing.


text: Tool Test: Top Cordless Rotary Hammers What the 1-ton dually is to pickup trucks, the cordless rotary hammer is to drills. These go-anywhere tools bore fearlessly into concrete or punch holes through lumber. Some models even have a hammer-only mode that allows you to chip off hardened concrete or crack your way through a rock. We gathered nine tools, all of them equipped with an industrial SDS Plus chuck, and put them to work on a truckload of concrete blocks.

NFL free agency is underway, with talks between teams and players developing all over Twitter. And poor Darren Sproles heard from Twitter about how he might be traded, instead of through his agent or someone from the Saints.
Sure, you know that Blaine Gabbert had a very bad season last year. But just for anyone who managed to forget, he was unbelievably bad, doing more damage to his team in just three games than anyone else managed in a full season.

After getting a second opinion from a spinal specialist, Kansas coach Bill Self confirmed that Joel Embiid has a stress fracture and will miss the Big 12 tournament, and most likely—at the very least—the first weekend of the NCAA Tournament. This could—and maybe should—have major implications for Selection Sunday.
Every Lars von Trier movie, deep down, is about how depressed Lars von Trier is and how much Lars von Trier hates himself, which is another reason it's amazing how gleefully deranged and entertaining each of his movies keeps turning out to be.

Spanish side Atlético Madrid are hosting AC Milan this evening in the second leg of their Champions League round of 16 tie.

Last April, we sent photographer Jeff Minton, perhaps the only man ever to shoot for Thrasher and the New Yorker, to the Playboy Mansion for the better part of a week. His assignment: Lend his irreverent eye to one of the most famous addresses on Earth. In all, he took nearly 4,000 photos—i.e., no detail, no matter…
If there's one sports novel you should read, it's probably The Damned Utd, David Peace's 2006 account of Brian Clough's disastrous 44-day tenure with a Leeds United side that detested him as much as he detested them.

The New York Times had yet another of its delightful "Room for Debate" sessions, in which various experts throw quick-take opinions on a subject past one another.

In December 2013, Roger Goodell and Redskins executives quietly met with a U.S. Senator and Native American activists opposed to the team name. It was the first such meetings since the 1970s, and it was not constructive.

This is fun. L.V.

Since the dawn of humanity, mankind has wondered about the most intricate mysteries of the universe. Why are we here? How did life begin? And, most vexingly: how do you get your poop to change colors?

News Release
Tuesday, February 22, 2011
Media contact: Gabriella B. Ferraro, 772-215-9459
Two Collier County airboat captains found out that feeding alligators and other wildlife doesn't pay. It's also illegal.
Working undercover on Friday, Feb. 17, FWC investigators posed as tourists on airboat tours operated by Everglades Island Boat Tours in Everglades City. Investigators watched as two airboat captains on separate airboats fed marshmallows to alligators and raccoons.
Graham M. Potter (DOB 10/20/53) of Copeland was charged with feeding raccoons, a misdemeanor. Randal T. Daniels (DOB 10/28/38) of Chokoloskee was charged with feeding alligators, also a misdemeanor.
"These men were sending tourists and visitors the wrong message about feeding and touching our wildlife," said FWC Lt. Ron Sacco. "When alligators and other wildlife are fed, they can overcome their natural fear of people, and it's more likely they will become a nuisance and have to be destroyed. That's why it's against the law."
FWC Facts:Breeding season for Florida black bears is summer, with the peak occurring from about mid-June through July.

"Perfect, depending on your needs"Reviewed by Lon F of "Caribbean" on Apr 27, 2011
The only big negative is that the photos of the rooms does not match the dormitory-style that we experienced. We really only wanted a low cost one-night stay for a connecting flight, so it was perfect. The beds were very comfortable - only singles and bunks and crammed into long room. The bedding was lovely and warm and very clean. The shower was so lovely and hot - could have stayed in it for hours. But this is not in any way luxurious. For what we needed it was well worth it and a great price. It was within walking distance of plaza's, restaurants, craft market, castle, across the road from the supermarket. We could cook a lovely home-style meal in their kitchen - great. It is basic, and just what we needed. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. And we don't speak Spanish. I am well past the age of student or backpacker style accommodations, however, I managed to enjoy my brief stay there, as it catered to all my needs for such a brief stayover for a sports team.

Basically, when Pedro needed to go, he would totter over to the door (sounding like a tiny woman in heels) and let out a wee squeal. Once outside, it only took moments from the time Pedro's feet touched the grass before he was efficiently taking care of business. There was no half-hour of sniffing that my dogs require before finding a tree they deem suitable for watering.
And then there was the snuggling. Pedro was a master snuggler, flopping himself over the shoulder like a baby needing burped. Once comfortable, it seemed to take no time before he was dozing.
We couldn't resist taking Pedro to my parents' house and to visit a few friends, then made a quick stop at Lowe's, where we wrapped the pig in a blanket and carried him like a baby -- a disguise that worked well until he started grunting.
All who saw him fell instantly in love. If we didn't have so many animals already, I'd be piglet shopping myself. Still, from what I've read, there are a large number of disreputable breeders out there who misrepresent ordinary potbellied pigs as being miniature, causing many people to end up with a pet that grows far larger than they can manage.
Also, because pigs can breed before they're finished growing, seeing the pig's parents isn't always an accurate indicator of how large your piglet will eventually become. They generally don't reach their full size until they are 2 to 3 years old.
But Pedro -- he was perfect.
The perfect boar.

Thanks for all of your suggestions and if you have any others, please let me know. I thought about trying anti-skid tape first to see if that helps because she almost seems to lose her footing as the steps seem kind of slippery.
I am attaching a picture of my deck steps currently. I don't think I can make the ramp zigzag without taking off the handrails. |

Ok, is the dog only going to be using the ramp when you are outside with them? IF so (and you want to get creative), you could build a dog elevator (the last one goes right into the house!:
To be more basic - this one looks simple enough: dog ramp for decks I personally would cover it with and indoor-outdoor carpeting to give the dog better grip.

Ilovealldogs- that's quite a few stairs... I'm guessing your deck is about 55" off the ground. I would not suggest any ramp steeper than what a dog would see in a dog agility course. A dogwalk plank is 12' long, 4' high, and is 19.47 degrees. Assuming your deck is 55" off the ground, and that you wanted to maintain the 19.47 degree angle, you'd want a plank 165" long. I'd buy a 14' long 2x12. You can get this at Lowes for probably about $18.
Also- this is a long plank and will have some bounce to it when the dog is on it. For that reason, I'd stabilize the board- either by building a couple "trestles" to hold it up from three or four spots, or I'd brace the board itself as I did for my dogwalk planks using a piece of unistrut bolted to the bottom of the board. You can use gate hinges to secure the plank to your deck. I would also say that for a senior who's having a hard time with stairs, just a 2x12 will NOT be sufficiently safe. You'll want to add some railings of some sort so that the dog's unsteady feet don't fall off the side of the board. I'd think that some patio lattice would probably be sufficient, and if you painted it wouldn't be such an eye sore. Of course, as cost increases, so can prettiness... I would apply a sand grit texturing to the plank, exactly like I did for my dogwalk. You can see full instructions of the easy process here. And lest you think that the sand isn't sufficiently gritty, here's my girl running across it in the snow...

Willy, thanks for the information. It was very helpful! The deck is five feet off the ground. I was thinking of using 16 foot boards and using two 2x8s side by side and putting short railings on the side. Do you think 16 feet will be too steep?

That creates an angle of 18.21 degrees, which is less than a dog would see in an agility trial for the dogwalk (meaning, it's really not too steep of an angle).
2x8s laid flat are doing to have a LOT of flex over a 16' span. Going this route would give you a 14.5" wide walking surface, which is pretty generous. But the flex that this assembly would have would rule it out in my opinion. I think I'd do something more along the lines of this: 2x8s on edge, with a 3/4" plywood top- 14" wide (or however wide you want). The 2x8s on edge also give you some place to secure railing.

BTW- perhaps a little off topic, but at 60" high and eight steps (7 actual rises) your stairs should have a rise of 8.57". That's a pretty tall step! I have some stairs in my training room that have an 8" rise, and it's certainly not something my dog can sprint down easily... No wonder your dog has some issues with it.

Ramp update!
So, I finally got the ramp done. You may wonder why I used slides, but all the material I used was free (with the exception of the green slide), so I figured I'd try to save a few bucks. I applied sandpaper-like tape to all of it and walked her up and down it. Needless to say, she fell! She was walking as if there were no tape at all and she looked like she had zero traction. I really didn't think the incline was too steep as I went out 17 feet with this (and it's 5 feet high). I really think that her hindquarters are just entirely too weak. Lately, for baths she even has to sit down.
Any suggestions? |

I'm not sure, but the green slide looks like it has a larger/steeper drop. I would build a ramp like the one Wildo posted with a simple guard rail added, not lattice, its not strong enough. The lumber needed to make the ramp would probably cost less than the slide (if you purchased the slide new) I bought a similar slide for my kids and it was around 250-ish. The strength, stability, and straight slope (as opposed to the wave slide) will probably help her feel secure going up and down.

Reference | EN 62555:201X |
Title | Ultrasonics - Power measurement - High intensity therapeutic ultrasound (HITU) transducers and systems |
Project Number | 23837 |
Abstract/Scope | IEC 62555:2013 establishes general principles relevant to HITU fields for the use of radiation force balances in which an obstacle (target) intercepts the sound field to be measured; specifies a calorimetric method of determining the total emitted acoustic power of ultrasonic transducers based on the measurement of thermal expansion of a fluid-filled target; specifies requirements related to the statement of electrical power characteristics of ultrasonic transducers; provides guidance related to the avoidance of acoustic cavitation during measurement; provides guidance related to the measurement of HITU transducers of different construction and geometry, including collimated, diverging and convergent transducers, and multi-element transducers; provides guidance on the choice of the most appropriate measurement method; and provides information on assessment of overall measurement uncertainties. This International Standard is applicable to the measurement of ultrasonic power generated by HITU equipment up to 500 W in the frequency range from 0,5 MHz to 5 MHz. HITU equipment may generate convergent, collimated or divergent fields. For frequencies less than 500 kHz, no validations exist and the user should assess the uncertainties of the power measurement and measurement system at the frequencies of operation. This International Standard does not apply to ultrasound equipment used for physiotherapy, for lithotripsy for general pain relief. |

Airport Hotel Project Planned For Haiti
The release says that the seven-story project will be built through a combination of standard construction methods and pre-fabricated processes. It will have full conference facilities able to host up to 400 people for a single event. There will also be a fitness center, swimming pool, spa facilities and more. The hotel will have a Creole style and will be surrounded with lush tropical landscaping. Everything will be built to meet or exceed all international earthquake standards.
"We recognize the importance of having facilities that can house individuals during the rebuilding process," said Gonzalez-Bunster, whose holdings include energy investments in neighboring Dominican Republic. "It is currently extremely challenging to secure accommodations since so much of the infrastructure was decimated by the earthquake." Bill Clinton also gave the project praise saying that that "an adequate network of hotels is crucial to the country" and that this project is one of the many needed to help rebuild Port Au Prince.
