Local authorities 'rationing care'
"Too many" elderly people who struggle with simple day-to-day tasks are not getting any help from social care services, a damning new report has warned.
Some older people in England are being left to "fend for themselves" instead of getting the care and support they need to complete basic tasks such as getting out of bed, bathing, preparing meals or doing their shopping, according to Age UK.
And families who care for loved ones are being placed under "intolerable strain" because they are not receiving any assistance for their loved ones, the charity said.
Its new report states that cuts to social care budgets have led to a care crisis - which is only worsening with an ageing population.
The report suggests that access to care has become restricted for many as councils feel the pinch of funding cuts.
Local authorities, which provide social care to people in their areas, are "rationing care", it adds.
Many are so stretched that they are only able to provide help to people whose needs are deemed to be " substantial" or "critical". Elderly people whose needs are deemed to be "moderate" or "low" are ignored until their needs become greater, the charity said.
The report states that 87% of authorities in England only provide care if the need is deemed to be " substantial" with a further 2% only providing care for those in dire need.
Just a "few" councils pay for care for people with "low" or "moderate" needs to prevent them from reaching a crisis point later on, it adds.
As a result, people in need of care face a "postcode lottery", the report states.
People deemed to be in "moderate" need are unable to to carry out several personal care or domestic routines, while those at "low" risk have an inability to carry out one or two of these tasks.
"As council funding has come under increasing pressure, they have raised eligibility thresholds," the report states.
"This results in fewer people being able to access care services."
Between 2005/6 and 20012/13 the number of people who received social care dropped by 27.2% - despite the fact that the population in this age group has grown by more than a million, the report says.
Age UK said that despite the rising demand for care the amount spent on services has dropped by £1.2 billion since 2010.
It said that since then £438 million has been transferred from NHS money to local authorities. But it is unclear whether all of the money diverted to local authorities has actually been spent on social care.
And this cash injection still leaves and shortfall on £769 million, it said.
The charity called on the Government to invest in social care in the Budget - which will be delivered by Chancellor George Osborne on March 19.
It also warned that the Care Bill, which represents a "significant step forward for older people in need of care", could be undermined by "inadequate" funding.
"The figures we have uncovered in this report are catastrophic," said Caroline Abrahams, charity director at Age UK.
"Older people who need help and who are now not getting it are being placed at significant risk and families who care for loved ones are experiencing intolerable strain. If older people do not receive the care they need and as a consequence end up in A&E units and hospital wards, we have simply shifted people around the system at great financial cost and created distress and disruption for older people in the process. This makes absolutely no moral or economic sense.
"The Government deserves credit for bringing forward long overdue reforms to the social care system, but without the money to back them up older people will see little if any benefit. Integration, while the right approach, will not make up for a chronic lack of funds. Age UK is calling on the Government to use the Budget to invest in the social care system so it can deliver the care and support that older people need.
"At the moment too many older people who have contributed to society throughout their lives are being left to fend for themselves when they need care and support. We cannot continue to sacrifice their safety, health and dignity. Too many older people have suffered already. It is time for politicians in all parties to act."
Care and Support Minister Norman Lamb said: "Social care is a priority for this Government which is why we have already allocated an extra £1.1 billion to councils from the NHS to protect services. But both our health and social care services need to work differently to respond to the needs of our ageing population - we need to focus on keeping people well and living independently for as long as possible.
"That's why we're going further in 2015/16 with our £3.8bn Better Care Fund which will allow local authorities and the NHS to invest in joined up services that prevent people from developing greater care needs in the first place. Our reforms to the way we pay for care will also help by protecting people from catastrophic costs."

19s or 21s for New England
19s or 21s for New England
I went with both & switch out to 19s from October to May (live in Denver)
I will get 19s for snow tires come October, also. The sticky tires on the 21s are a blast to drive, though they don't last well.
P85 and we have 19" for Boston (south shore).
Been more than enough to have fun with especially as it is now also the primary family car.
Snow is the the big issue. Pot holes and never ending road construction winter and summer is.
Maserati Gran Turismo - blew 4 ties and one rim in first year on 21's, before permanently switching to 19" snow tires year round. Virtually no difference in every day driving.
During delivery in Watertown we saw plenty of cars with 21's but I wonder if they are city cars. Most all of the one in our area have 19's.
Snow isn't the big issue. (..?..)

An Open Letter to Bridget Jones
An Open Letter to Bridget Jones
2016-10-14 - When one of our favorite singletons decided to opt for a Bugaboo pushchair, we couldn't help but respond. Here's our open letter to the one and only Bridget Jones.
Dear Bridget Jones,
You've been our favorite singleton for many years now. We've laughed with you - and at you. We've enjoyed your major dramas and your minor mishaps, your ability to ALWAYS say the wrong thing. Your diet of chardonnay and blue soup (yum!). And of course your wardrobe malfunctions…
You've somehow made us feel that being a flawed and flustered female is, well, kind of alright.
Now you're back in our lives – and not much has changed. You're still the same Bridget, but now with a bump.
You may be fuzzy on minor details - like who's really the father of your baby - but as always you're sharp on the big decisions, like which "bloody pushchair" to buy.
Of course you would go for a Bugaboo, it's so very you.
Here's to Bridget Jones – and all of us who aren't perfect!

Magma's first request for re-examination of the '114 patent resulted in a finding that the request raised a substantial new question of patentability and a subsequent rejection of the patent's 15 claims by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (PTO). This new re-examination request is based upon prior art not previously cited to the PTO and adds further uncertainty as to the validity of the Synopsys patent.

Lord McIntosh of Haringey: My Lords, I am not aware of any recent announcement that the Royal Parks have to pay for themselves. They do not pay for themselves and it has never been intended that they should pay for themselves. In my first Answer I said that one of the objectives in the Royal Parks corporate plan was to maximise income. But that would be supplementary to the grant-in-aid which the Royal Parks Agency receives.
Baroness Oppenheim-Barnes: My Lords, will the Minister accept that I wholeheartedly support a great deal of what my noble friend Lord St John of Fawsley said? In addition to those concerns, I add the problem of traffic management in the Inner Circle. It is already heavily trafficked and parking facilities are extremely expensive, often excluding disabled persons wishing to use the park. Moreover, the agency is extremely arrogant in its approach to traffic management and imposed schemes which are running at present which cause great inconvenience and danger to permanent residents.
Lord McIntosh of Haringey: My Lords, there is no easy solution. There are those--including the noble Lord, Lord St John--who believe that there should be even more severe restrictions on traffic in the Royal Parks, particularly through traffic. I fear that there is an insoluble conflict between that aim and the aim of the noble Baroness, Lady Oppenheim-Barnes, to remove obstacles to traffic. Of course there are problems in the Royal Parks; they are part of central London. I acknowledge also that problems exist in the Inner Circle. I was not aware of specific problems for disabled people and would be glad to hear more from the noble Baroness on that subject.
Lord Goodhart: My Lords, I declare an interest as someone who lives in a flat on the Outer Circle. Is the Minister aware that a severe problem arises in the Royal Parks, particularly Regent's Park, through the intrusive effect of tall buildings? Are the Government
Lord McIntosh of Haringey: My Lords, we are aware of the proposals for tall buildings at Paddington Basin and the Royal Parks Agency formally objected to that development on the grounds that there will be visual intrusion, particularly in Regent's Park.
Lord Elton: My Lords, in reply to his noble friend Lord Strabolgi, the noble Lord, Lord McIntosh, said in his first Answer that one of the aims of the agency was to "maximise profit". Before those words he used the phrase, "as far as possible". Can the Minister remind us what the limiting factor is on the maximisation of profit? There is clearly a conflict of interest between the quiet enjoyment of the park and the exploitation of it for commercial purposes. On that hangs the whole quality of the park itself.
Lord McIntosh of Haringey: My Lords, my actual words in my first Answer were,
Baroness Thomas of Walliswood: My Lords, does the Minister recognise that there is a difference between, for example, having a series of theatrical performances during the summer at Regent's Park, and having a permanent commercial activity in the centre of the park? It is that to which a number of people, including myself, object so strongly.
Lord McIntosh of Haringey: My Lords, we recognise that there is a great deal of difference between the open-air theatre and the possibility of a commercial garden centre at Chester Road. The points made by the noble Baroness are relevant to the considerations of the Royal Parks and Westminster City Council.
Lord St John of Fawsley: My Lords, in view of the satisfactory and sympathetic answers of the noble Lord, and the introduction by the noble Baroness the Leader of the House of the new constitutional idea of self-nomination, will the noble Lord, Lord McIntosh, consider nominating himself as Secretary of State because he clearly has all the qualifications for the position?
Lord McIntosh of Haringey: My Lords, the Prime Minister might have a thing or two to say about that.
The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, Home Office (Lord Bassam of Brighton): My Lords, I beg to move the Motion standing in my name on the Order Paper.
Moved, That the amendments for the Report stage be marshalled and considered in the following order:
Clauses 73 to 79.--(Lord Bassam of Brighton.)
On Question, Motion agreed to.
Lord Bassam of Brighton: My Lords, I beg to move that the House do now again resolve itself into Committee on this Bill.
Moved, That the House do now again resolve itself into Committee.--(Lord Bassam of Brighton.)
On Question, Motion agreed to.
House in Committee accordingly.
[THE LORD CHANCELLOR in the Chair.]
Clause 103 [Designation of organisations to whom assistance is available]:
Lord Mackay of Ardbrecknish moved Amendment No. 233:
There were two questions in the Scottish referendum. The first asked whether voters wanted a Scottish Parliament and the second asked whether they wanted it to have tax-raising powers. Members of the Committee can therefore see that there are four possible outcomes: yes/yes; yes/no; no/yes; and no/no. Indeed, some people took up all four positions. Clearly, a majority answered "yes" to both questions and a minority answered "no" to both questions. However, some people decided that they wanted a Scottish Parliament but that they did not want it to have tax-raising powers and others did not want a Scottish Parliament but thought that, if there were to be one, it ought to have tax-raising powers. The problem is deciding how to define the umbrella organisations involved.
Interestingly, as the Bill stands, the Secretary of State will decide about the umbrella organisations as regards those outcomes. My first amendment suggests that it should not be the Secretary of State but the electoral commission. I believe that the case for that is unanswerable. If one is to make referendums acceptable in this country, the Government must not be seen to be taking things apart in deciding what the rules are and who is or is not playing. Therefore, I submit that the electoral commission should decide that matter.
My Amendment No. 234 addresses the question of how the commission should decide on the umbrella groups or "designated organisations" as they are called. Let us say that, for example, two different organisations decided to campaign for the same outcome in a referendum on proportional representation. I read in an extract from Mr Ashdown's diaries in this week's Times that the Prime Minister used almost exactly the same words in respect of such a referendum as he used last week in respect of a referendum on the euro; namely, that if there were a referendum tomorrow he would vote "no". That must come as interesting news to the Liberal Democrats who must be wondering about their bedfellows in such referendums. At least they know where I and my party stand on such issues, but they must be unsure about their partners.
As regards a referendum on proportional representation, it is possible that a significant proportion of the Labour Party will not want proportional representation and will want to set up an organisation in order to campaign for first past the post. "Labour For First Past The Post" might be a good title. I accept that some people in my party would approve of proportional representation but clearly the majority of them would be in favour of keeping the first-past-the-post system.
It may be that those two organisations would find it difficult to come together. Labour members advocating first past the post might find it uncomfortable to team up with Conservatives and therefore there would be two potential umbrella
One can see that a number of genuine outcomes could come from a decision to hold a referendum. I hope that my amendment is therefore helpful to the Government and, more importantly, to the electoral commission, which will have to make those difficult decisions. I look forward to hearing the noble Lord, Lord Bach, explain why the Government have decided that the Secretary of State should decide on the outcomes and what is wrong with my amendment which helps to guide the commission to its conclusion on how many umbrella organisations, if more than one, it should recognise. I beg to move.
Lord Bach: These amendments are concerned with the designation of those permitted participants which may then benefit from the assistance specified in Clause 105, including a grant of up to £600,000 and free mailshots.
Amendment No. 233 is concerned with subsection (3) of Clause 103. This subsection addresses the possibility that there might be more than two possible outcomes to a referendum. Where that is the case it may or may not be appropriate to provide for the designation of a permitted participant in respect of each possible outcome. I say "may not" because certain possible outcomes may be contradictory or absurd.
Clause 103(3) provides that, in such circumstances, the Secretary of State may by order specify the possible outcomes in respect of which a permitted participant may be designated. I understand that the noble Lord objects to that provision. Such an order could be made only after consultation with the electoral commission and would be subject to the affirmative resolution procedure, thereby leaving the final say in determining such matters to Parliament.

His imaginative catwalk shows have historically been the hottest ticket during Paris Fashion Week - and for good reason. Even last year, his collection was launched with a train driving alongside the catwalk. It's believed that he is leaving the position to focus on his own Marc Jacobs label, which is part owned by Louis Vuitton Moet Hennessy. © DailyMotion - Wednesday, October 2nd 2013

Denver gets
Billups and McDyess
Billups has 2 years left on contract 12mil / then 13mil
McDyess 1 year left 6.5 mil
Iverson contract is up this year....
Probably good moves financially for both teams...
But basketball wise...I don't know ...they both are one step from being good
Billups does have some years on the contract....
plus they probably didn't wanna trade him to another East. Conf. team...
but it just goes to show that if you have a Good GM...and are willing to try and work hard enough....there is always a trade out there that can help you
A.I.. and Steph have similar contracts....hmmmmmmmm
okay....denver traded camby for a 2nd round pick for financial reasons and now they trade away an expiring contract for billups who has multiple years left on his contract....yea....makes a whole lot of sense from denver...bilupps still a good player though
I want knicks management to do something..........
just to show me things are different...........
? ? ?
As for the Denver-Detroit trade, I like it for both teams. Detroit gets a sorely needed scoring punch. Denver gets a good point guard who can help get the ball in to the hands of the other players in a good position to score. I think Detroit can win a title now.
Firstly, JaY'....
no one said anything about making a stupid trade for no reason....
every true knick fan -- wants the circus to end....
it was suppossed to with Mikey D and now knick's fan want to see something happen....
sitting on this lineup and letting curry/steph not play is useless...
ps.. billups alrady won a title with detroit ....so how does A.I. help them ? if anything he will create a problem because they will feel obligated to have him on the court late in games when stuckey is the better defender

[Only registered and activated users can see links. ], Detroit Pistons MVP
About the Pistons, that team has trouble scoring for long stretches at times. AI brings penetration and easy baskets. Late in games I think they're gonna do a 3 guard line up:
PG- Stucky
SF- Hamilton
PF- Prince might be able to play the 4, depending on the matchup. Otherwise Maxiel or McDyess if he comes back.
C- Sheed
They can switch around Stucky and AI.
denver is now a much better team and will make the playoffs and go farther, they deff made out on the trade, A.I. is a good player but not as good as a team player as billups
i love going back and seeing who get the better end of the deal. it really was a low-risk deal for the pistons, since if a.i continues his average play he comes off the books. but i still think he makes detroit a scary team, cuz he cud blow for 30 points on any given night. but the nuggets have definetely impressed me. iverson might be the better player pound for pound, but undoubtely billups was better for the nuggets. plus melo hasnt even been playing up to par yet. this team looks scary and if it keeps this solid play up they could be a real lock at the #2 position in the west (something i thought the hornets would do with no problem). i say the nuggets won this deal. i was wondering what would happen if they still had camby though? would he be playin better than nene right now? because nene is playing pretty good. but anywayz ive been impressed with the nuggets so far

Cascara sagrada, (Spanish: "sacred bark"), the dried bark of the buckthorn Rhamnus purshiana (order Rosales) used in medicine as a laxative. The tree is cultivated in North America and Kenya. Cascara sagrada is prepared in both liquid and solid forms. The activity apparently results from the combined action of several substances, a number of which have been isolated; they consist chiefly of anthraquinones.

Was Anthony Walker the perpetrator of his own misfortune, ie the aggressor that got his comeupance, or an innocent kid killed by a moron carrying an offensive weapon?
A bit of both. As with most youths like these, circumstances, friendships and indeed common enemies tend to dictate your behavior.
Some (like me) grow up to be well rounded adults with proper jobs and a familly etc. However some end up doing time and indeed some end up in the ground. Mostly it's down to luck (or a lack of) rather than anything else. In my days i was exceptionally close to being sent away for an extended holiday (although, not for violence i must mention), obviously my life would have been exceptionally different to the one i have now. However, this was a small turn of fate that seperated the me we have here, from the me with a prison stretch.
I think back of another occasion, it was the night of the Michael Jackson gig in Liverpool, i wasn't one of the fortunate people with tickets so we were walking to get a closer listen. We were just by where Brookside was filmed and were chased by a gang of about 10 lads. All were tooled up with various implements from cricket bats to other objects (it was dark so i can't be more descriptive sorry). However somehow we managed to jump a wall out of sight and made it safely away in the end after passing through some random woodland. I think to how different things could have been that night for example, what would have happend if we'd been caught, neither me or my mate were the violent type and i'd have been in a world of trouble... them other lads could quite easily have been sitting in a cell now due to their actions that night... who knows.
Back then, it was par for the course to be carrying something hard/firm/whatever as a self-defence item. Sometimes it was silly things like Chinese throwing stars, or a pair of nunchuku (sp?), sometimes it was a screwdriver... or even a knife... i was far from being the only person around who took precautions.
There are many many other stories, occasions and circumstances... but, we're digressing from the story actually being discussed in the OP.
Pingu, the victim was not charged as there was no offence in the days leading up to the killing, it was simply a way of life, taking a kicking every now and again was what happened when you walked down the wrong street at the wrong time. I personally was suprised more wasn't made of it when the case was being heard etc. But i was only a bystander reading in the papers and listening to local gossip. As i said above, i had no reason at the time to not believe what i was told... whether it's true or not, i dunno, but i certainly think it was.

The Miami Marlins have struggled so much in 2013 that it took a 15-10 month of June just to climb out of the bottom rung of the MLB standings. With the (now) second-worst record in baseball, the Marlins have had few bright spots, but the brightest has been rookie pitcher Jose Fernandez.
A surprise call-up before Opening Day, Fernandez had never pitched above the single-A level, but he has been surprisingly dominant for the young Marlins. His 5-4 record is nothing to write home about, but his 2.72 ERA is tenth-best in the National League, and opposing batters are hitting just .192 against him.
His 8-inning shutout performance on Monday was his fourth start of the season allowing no runs, and he has another four 1-run starts as well.
"You can tell why the Marlins like this kid," Padres manager Bud Black said Monday after Fernandez shut out the Padres. "He has a lot of talent. For 20 years old, he's pretty advanced."
Writing for NBC Sports' Harball Talk, Aaron Gleeman pointed out that Fernandez is striking out batters at a rate almost unheard of for a 20-year-old. Fernandez has 94 strikeouts over 92 and 2/3 innings, good for 9.1 per 9 innings.
Only one pitcher has done better at that age: Rick Ankiel in 2000. When Dwight Gooden won the NL Cy Young award as a 20-year-old in 1985, he struck out 8.7 per nine innings.
There is a good chance that Fernandez will be the Marlins' lone representative at the annual All-Star Game in two weeks, as slugging outfielder Giancarlo Stanton has missed much of the first half to injury.
Along with Stanton, Fernandez has already become one of the faces of the franchise thanks to his sterling play and personal history. Born in Santa Clara, Cuba, Fernandez defected to the U.S. in 2008. It was his fourth attempt to leave the country.
"It has been pretty hard for me to get here — not to the big leagues, but to the United States," he said last month. "Living in Cuba for 15 years taught me a lot. Life over there is pretty tough. I'm incredibly blessed to be in the United States."
The Marlins selected him in the first round (14th overall) of the 2010 MLB draft. The jewel of Miami's farm system, he has taken advantage of his opportunity in the big leagues.
"I compete my butt off," he said. "It doesn't matter who I'm facing. It could be the best hitter in the world; it could be my mom. I compete and compete and compete and compete, and that's what everybody is going to get out of me every time."

Lidge hurls scoreless inning at Triple-A
Lidge hurls scoreless inning at Triple-A
With his velocity touching 93 mph, Lidge was extremely pleased with his latest outing and said he feels he's "very close" to returning to the club.
The 93 on the radar gun in center field was another good indication.
"That's definitely a good sign," Lidge said. "To be honest, I didn't know if I'd get there before I got back. That makes me pretty pleased with this outing."
On a night the Phillies added yet another pitcher to the disabled list -- starter J.A. Happ, with a left forearm strain -- Lidge's outing was a bit of reassurance.
He's now gone four straight appearances without allowing a run, after giving up four in two-thirds of an inning in his first outing for Class A Clearwater. But that seems to be behind the 33-year-old right-hander, who said he feels as close to his 2008 form as he has in a while.
"I really feel, health-wise, that I'm back there," Lidge said. "Now it's about building arm strength. I feel like I'm very close."
It's finally some injury news that isn't detrimental for Philadelphia.
No other team in the Majors has been hit with such an injury wave this early in the year. With two starting pitchers (Happ and Joe Blanton), the starting shortstop (Jimmy Rollins) and Lidge all out, Philadelphia has needed to be creative filling out its 25-man roster during the first weeks of the season.
But signs appear to be brightening. Left-handed reliever J.C. Romero was activated from the 15-day disabled list on Thursday after missing the first 15 games following offseason left elbow surgery.
Blanton will make another rehab start for Double-A Reading on Saturday and could be ready to rejoin the Phillies by May 3.
And Lidge appeared optimistic about his progress. General manager Ruben Amaro Jr. said Lidge will pitch another inning Friday -- he will head to Reading, since Lehigh is going on the road -- and then be extended to two innings Monday.
"I think I'll use these next outings to really make sure it's exactly where I want," Lidge said. "And my fastball control and command is definitely better than last year, I can tell you that right now."

My wife had a mastectomy as a result of breast cancer just over a year ago. She has been fairly irritated by the early selfies with no info on how people help beat cancer. Her irritation has been soothed since Cancer Research got involved.
Chat Forum
No Make up selfies.
Seems appropriate for many taking part in this latest #selfie craze
I just saw this:
Cancer Research UK says it's received "tens of thousands" more donations than usual in the last 24 hours. It's after thousands of women posted a #makeupfreeselfie on social media before nominating other friends to do the same to raise awareness about cancer.
So it seems not all bad?
Anyone seen the socks on cocks selfies to raise awareness of testicular cancer..
Cancer Research UK says it's received "tens of thousands" more donations than usual in the last 24 hours. It's after thousands of women posted a #makeupfreeselfie on social media before nominating other friends to do the same to raise awareness about cancer.
Yeah just think of all the extra animal testing they can do now.
No make up "selfies" are like soooo over.
selloptapeselfies are where it's at these days.
Anyone seen the socks on cocks selfies to raise awareness of testicular cancer..
Ooh, no! Got a link?
Socks on Cocks??
Most Excellent idea, anyone got a sock 3ft long?
Socks on Cocks??
Who's going to admit to being a cock?
Ooh, no! Got a link?
I don't think it's "awareness" of the disease per se, it's awareness of the fact that cancer care and finding a cure isn't cheap and often undertaken by non-profit making organisations (mainly care). Now, I have my own reservations about many charities and how much money actually goes to the end cause, but that is another argument.
On a side issue: Has anyone seen that advert for makeup that has the line "When I put this on I feel beautiful inside". Now that is insidious advertising.
He he, purely random but I happen to know pptuning
as others have probably already said I believe it's not "cancer awareness" in an LA stylee, there's supposed to be donations along with the selfie and the awareness isn't "have you ever heard of cancer, it's kind of a big deal" it's about getting people to remember shit like feeling for lumps, not ignoring constant coughs and other stuff.
But yeah some will just be posting the selfie, but in the grand scheme not something to get too worked up about I'd have thought.
Okay everyone, put your pitchforks down.
The 'no make-up selfie' trend has helped charity Cancer Research UK raise more than £1 million through 800,000 text donations since yesterday.
The charity also saw a rise in people donating at their Cancer Research UK shops, and a huge peak in visits to its website.

Okay everyone, put your
pitchforkssocks down.
I love it when a plan comes together
I don't see any harm in it, but I don't get the idea of posting a photo of yourself without make up as being something of interest, whereas growing a moustache for a month is.
Also, I feel a little frustrated that there are a lot of equally worthy causes that get bog-all funding or attention.
I'm tempted to post on FB that if I post a photo of my backside will anyone donate to a charity of my choice, namely Alzheimer's research, Bipolar UK, Mind, or Migraine Action.
It's raised over a million pounds, what's the problem?
When you post you are meant to donate too. £3 a time.
I really don't understand threads like this. There is no negative to it.
The negative to it is that you feel obliged to donate. Other diseases exist too.
There are some right miserable clunts here.
Surely anything which adds to funding for research towards cancer can only be a good thing?
How many folks sitting somewhere on a Thursday evening have now given a donation which in some way will help others and potentially them too - and which they may not otherwise have done.
Might as well slag Davina off too.....but no...good on her for getting off her butt and doing something positive too.
No you don't. And yes there are, but one thing at a time, hey? Helping cancer research isn't a bad thing because it doesn't stop third world polio.
Please just get your phone out and help,
Just text beat to 70099. its only £3.
Do you still have to randomly donate even if you give a monthly donation?
its only £3
The negative to it is that you feel obliged to donate. Other diseases exist too.
Donating to a charity is actually a negative thing to do, because you aren't donating to another different charity.
This place is weird sometimes.
When I first posted this folks weren't donating they were just posting pictures (well the ones in my fb weren't)
you can't start back tracking now, we all know your stance on the matter
Funny how any attempt to raise some money to help others gets some people all hot under the collar. I fail to see the problem, if women post up a photo of themselves without the slap on, and they get positive responses, along with helping others, who's losing? Many women can't leave the house without makeup, despite looking absolutely fine, so this can only help fight against the Daily Wail's continual sniping at women, by publishing heavily sharpened photos of celebs without slap, to show how 'ravaged' they really are, which is just cruel.
I know quite a few women who hardly wear any, and look fine, and age makes no difference, either. Neither of these two wear any at all, despite some thinking that all young women go out plastered in the stuff. Neither are teenagers, either...
Prostate Cancer I support, Bill Bailey does something similar I hear.
That could an interesting selfie - nsfw ?

Reds, Valentin avoid arbitration
Reds, Valentin avoid arbitration
The Reds' dynamic duo behind the plate will be back in action in 2006. The club avoided arbitration and signed catcher Javier Valentin to a one-year contract worth $1.15 million Sunday, less than a month after locking up Jason LaRue with a two-year deal. Barring a trade, the Reds will retain the Major Leagues' best offensive catching corps from 2005, though several teams had inquired about both Valentin and LaRue this offseason.
"Right now, we're positioned to go into Spring Training with both catchers on the roster," general manager Dan O'Brien said. Valentin and LaRue combined to hit .268 with 28 homers and 110 RBIs. in '05. Their 26 home runs while catching tied the Mets and Red Sox for the big-league lead, and their 101 RBIs at catcher was the highest of any team's backstops. Though LaRue had been counted on in years past for consistency at the plate, the Reds weren't banking on the production they got out of Valentin this season. "We thought he was a good offensive player," O'Brien said. "But I don't know that we anticipated him having quite the season he did. To his credit, he worked very hard." The hard work paid off. The 30-year-old Valentin had a breakout year, establishing career highs in average (.281), home runs (14) and RBIs (50). His career-high .310 average with runners in scoring position was third-best on the club. Valentin really came alive in mid-July, when he hit five home runs and drove in 11 runs over the course of three games against the Rockies and Cubs.
At the end of the season, O'Brien wasn't overly optimistic that he'd be able to retain both of his catchers, who were each eligible for arbitration. "This is certainly the far preferable outcome, for anyone involved in the arbitration process," O'Brien said. "It's not a pleasant experience."
It's an experience O'Brien still hopes to avoid with his five remaining arbitration-eligible players: Adam Dunn, Aaron Harang, Austin Kearns, Felipe Lopez and Wily Mo Pena. "All I can say is the discussions are in various stages," O'Brien said. "At this point, all parties are making an effort to try to get something resolved."

We are traveling to the Dallas, TX area, in particular, Duncanville next week. Are there any quilt shops in the Duncanville area?
Welcome to the Quilting Board!
We are traveling to the Dallas, TX area, in particular, Duncanville next week. Are there any quilt shops in the Duncanville area?
I don't know where Duncanville is but there is a big quilt shop in Louisville. It was in a Shop Hop mag. I have it on my list for the next time I visit my brother.
My mom and sister both live in Duncanville and I am there at least once a year. This shop is about 40 minutes away but SO worth the trip- large cheerful store, lots of repro fabrics, very helpful staff- my sister teaches classes there sometimes too.
Common Threads Quilting
315 S. Rogers St
Waxahachie, TX 75165
This one is closer but I haven't checked it out-Arlington is east of Duncanville.
Thanks for the info, hope I have time to check some of these places out!
Lone Star House of Quilts is my favorite spot in Texas. It's a converted house with giant magnolias in the front yard -inside is complete sensory overload. They specialize in Civil War repros, but they have wools, some 30's and some batiks, too.
Go on a Monday if you can and buy at least ten FQ's - you get 30% off the FQ's. I try to pick up my BOM's on Mondays. :)
Not necessarily in Duncanville, but McKinney has The Quilt Asylum and Lewisville has Quilt Country (lots of wonderful batiks.) If I were going back to Dallas, I'd visit the fabric district just off Harry Hines Blvd near Golden D'Or. It may not the best neighborhood, but I went there alone all the time. At least one of those shops had quilting fabric at $5 per yard and many others carry garment fabrics at bargain basement prices. And Golden D'Or has amazing fabrics as well, but I think it's mostly garment and upholstery fabrics.

LOS ANGELES (AP) Matt Kemp homered leading off the 10th inning, spoiling Bryce Harper's major league debut and lifting the Los Angeles Dodgers to a 4-3 victory over the Washington Nationals on Saturday night.
Harper hit a go-ahead sacrifice fly in the top of the ninth before Washington's bullpen wasted a 3-1 lead in the bottom half.
Kemp drove a 1-2 pitch off Tom Gorzelanny (1-1) to center field for his majors-leading 11th home run, breaking the Dodgers record for long balls in April set by Gary Sheffield in 2000. Kemp tossed his helmet as he galloped from third to home plate, where he was mobbed by teammates.
Jamey Wright (1-0) pitched a perfect inning for the win.

THE vast accumulated wisdom in Scottish football – it measures just over a thimbleful, since one asks – maintains that Rangers cannot win the league and Hibernian cannot be relegated.
The events of a chilly Ibrox Saturday gently challenge the former assertion and plough in to the second with studs up. An initially hesitant but increasingly confident Rangers moved to within one point of Celtic in the hunt for the Clydesdale Bank Premier League title as Hibs displayed the gamut of defensive inadequacies that leave the Edinburgh club just one point clear of the relegation spot. The only cry of gratitude a demented Hibee could make at the weekend was: ''Thank God for Dunfermline''.
Rangers have a few more reasons to be cheerful in the face of the almost certain departure of Nikica Jelavic, the almost certain realisation they will not be able to sign a replacement and the almost certain hope that one day, some day, the income tax case will be resolved.
Loading article content
There were specific causes for thankfulness for Rangers sympathisers on Saturday. Ivan Sproule made inroads on both wings and dangerous crosses were missed by Eoin Doyle in the first half and David Wotherspoon in the second. Both opportunities came at moments when Rangers were vulnerable and their fragility could have been exploited.
Other factors tilting the game towards the champions included the generosity of the Hibs defence and the excellent displays from Maurice Edu, Steven Davis and Sone Aluko. Elsewhere, the ineffective Gregg Wylde needs a break from first-team duties to regain his confidence, while David Healy's goal cannot disguise the lack of pace that means he is regularly caught offside when trying to gain an advantage in a prospective race with a defender.
Incidentally, the attempts by Hibs to play offside have been videoed and entered for the Golden Rose of Montreux comedy prize. Hibs played a high line but it was one that resembled not a straight, purposeful stance but more the zig-zag outline of a cardiograph machine showing a massive heart attack. Presumably being suffered by Pat Fenlon on the sidelines.
Aluko, enterprising and bright throughout, exploited this lack of organisation to put Davis through and the Northern Irishman finished strongly. Hibs then gave a masterclass in the physical comedy of Buster Keaton to gift Rangers with the second.
A languid long ball was carelessly headed back towards Mark Brown by Sean O'Hanlon, but it fell short and the goalkeeper headed the ball off James McPake, the loan signing who made a debut so grisly his later sending-off by referee Charlie Richmond was almost an act of compassion. Healy thus was left to pass the ball into an empty net.
Aluko then scored beautifully from the free kick that earned McPake his second yellow and Davis ended the scoring, deftly controlling a diagonal pass from Carlos Bocanegra to finish with the style of someone who has enjoyed an encouraging day.
It is yet to be seen how much, beyond three points, Rangers can glean from this performance. Davis is better if still not back to his best, Edu is competently functional and Aluko has the ability to cause alarm in opposing defences.
However, there was a glaring hole up front where Jelavic, absent through sickness, should be. Mervan Çelik, the 21-year-old Swede, came on for a gallop and showed he lacks little confidence on or off the field.
"I hope this puts the pressure on Celtic. I believe we have the squad capable of challenging them. We are a good team and there are many games left so I think we can catch them,'' said Celik. "I will help the team win games and bring some goals to the side.''
He may, but this remains unproven. He scored 18 goals in 68 appearances over three years for GAIS. This is commendable for a wide man but does not represent the pedigree of a player whose goals can fire Rangers to a fourth consecutive title.
While Rangers undoubtedly need a striker, particularly if Jelavic goes, Hibs need a defence. Their confusion at the weekend was such that one of their experienced defenders was sent off and another in O'Hanlon was hooked, presumably in the manner of a boxing trainer sparing his charge further punishment.
''We are all tough on one other,'' said George Francomb, one of those Fenlon has brought to Hibs on loan. ''We expect high standards of one another but we are letting in too many soft goals. We have to cut it out; be more dogged and determined.''

DEAR HELOISE: The reader who saves word games and puzzles to solve during idle moments is absolutely correct! One of the most important steps one can take to preserve and even improve brain health and wellness is mental stimulation, whether it be solving puzzles, learning a new language or simply taking a different route while driving home.
Equally important are socialization and friends, eating a healthy diet high in vitamins, exercise and spirituality, whether it be in the form of worship or meditation. After all, every time your heart beats, 25 percent of the blood flow goes to your brain! By keeping it active and healthy, you'll discover that you're never too old to be young! – Cherie LeBard, Health Promotion Committee, Pennsylvania Association of Healthcare Auxiliaries, via e-mail
Cherie, thanks for the good hints for staying healthy, happy and interested! Investment in mental and physical activity can really pay off with big dividends later on. – Heloise
DEAR HELOISE: I reuse dry-cleaner bags by tying shut the little hole at the top where the hanger goes through and then using the bag for carrying out lightweight trash. – Dorothy of Ohio
Yep, a good recycling hint. I also use them for stuffing pet pillows, as a filler in boxes for mailing, and to poof up valances. – Heloise
DEAR HELOISE: I would like to compliment the reader who sent in the hint about compiling a disaster file.
This past summer, we experienced a flood, causing an emergency evacuation from our home. We had just five minutes to get ready to leave and were in a shelter for many days.
I would add these things to the file:
A pad of blank checks.
Leave a section of the file for unpaid bills, and grab them and insert as you leave your house.
An old phone book for your town or city.
A list of your medications.
I found that these four things were most important to keep us going while we were away from home. – Linda P. of Schuyler, Neb.
DEAR HELOISE: I would like to share something I found to work very nicely. I used hair conditioner to shave my legs with when I ran out of shaving cream. It works very well and leaves the skin smooth, not dry, even after wiping with a wet washcloth. – P.J.J. in Arizona
DEAR HELOISE: Balloons are beautiful to see as they float in the sky. Soon, the deflated polymers will return and be scattered as trash on land and in the seas.

I love my new (to me, anyway)blue 2001 Forester. It has some scratches that I'd like to camoflage as much as possible. Has anyone used the Turtle chip stick/color match wax with any success? Does it harm the plastic body panels? What is the best way to maintain the plastic panels? I've noticed they look "streaky" after getting wet.

Most of those scratches may be able to be buffed out. Try some Maguiars Scratch Remover, or similar. You'd be surprised how much can be brought back with a little elbow grease, and a mild abrasive polishing compound. Check with a reputable body shop. They can sure tell you in a big hurry. If the scratches are too deep to buff out, try some of those paint stick waxes. I've used them with some success, but not a 100 % of the time. You have nothing to lose, other than a few dollars. The plastic panels look crappy if any wax gets on them, particularly if they have a grained pattern. Remove it with rubbing alcohol from the local drug store. It lifts the wax right off. Then use some Maguiars Vinyl/Rubber Treatment. Its like Armourall, but much better, and it doesn't have a water base. Good luck!

NEW HAVEN, Conn., Jan. 20 (UPI) -- A majority of Americans still think key themes in President John F. Kennedy's inauguration speech are important 50 years later, a poll says.
A Knights of Columbus-Marist poll said 95 percent of the respondents indicated comments Kennedy made about freedom and service to the country on that cold 1961 day in Washington remain relevant.
The poll focused on Kennedy's statement "We shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, in order to assure the survival and the success of liberty," and "Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country."
About 95 percent or more of the poll's respondents said the quotes are either very or somewhat important for the United States. But among Millennials -- those between 18 and 29 -- 20 percent thought they weren't very important or not important at all.
The poll also referred to two other quotations dealing with the role of God in national life. Those quotes were: "Here on earth God's work must truly be our own" and "The rights of man come not from the generosity to the state, but from the hand of God."
Eighty-six percent of respondents said the first quotation was very or somewhat important for the United States and about 85 percent felt the same about the second quotation.
Two-thirds of respondents overall and 82 percent of Millennials think Kennedy was "one of the best presidents in history."
"Fifty years after President John F. Kennedy stirred a nation with these important words, Americans continue to recognize the importance of what he said, of his definition of what it means to be an American," said Carl A. Anderson, Supreme Knight of Columbus. "President Kennedy reminded us then that we must be at the service of God and country and that message -- as Americans clearly understand -- is still very important to our nation today."
The Knights of Columbus is a Catholic fraternal organization. Kennedy was the nation's first Roman Catholic president.
The poll of 1,018 adults was conducted Jan. 6-10 and has a margin of error of plus or minus three percentage points.

The Hidden Power of Photoshop CS: Chapter 2: Color Separations. Pt. 2. By Sybex | 3
The Hidden Power of Photoshop CS: Chapter 2: Color Separations. Pt. 2
Multipass Printing
On a press, ink gets put on paper one press color at a time. You can mimic this process printing at home by sending a sheet of paper through your printer multiple times. Use this method to create single copies of your duotone images, both to test the duotone settings on your home printer and to create prints for display that use true duotoning methods.
While in some cases it may be redundant to do this (there is no need to print CMYK in separate passes on a CMYK printer most of the time), this approach may be the best way to get the results you planned using your ink-jet when printing duotones. It will let you imitate press separation and process printing by laying down color one "ink" at a time, though you will actually be processing four inks in each pass to imitate specific tones. By applying colors in this way, you can imitate the result of spot color printing at home (so long as the colors you choose are in the CMYK range). This will probably work best with an ink-jet or liquid ink printer rather than a laser or pigment printer. Inks will mix better than toners.
When working with the multipass technique, keep the tones for each color in separate images, color them using the appropriate fill color, and send the result to the printer one at a time on the same sheet! Print light colors first, and follow with darker. Allow some drying time in between colors. In this way, you will build your print similar to the way it would be created on a printing press. As long as your printer has reasonably accurate paper gripping, you'll get a pretty refined result. Because each pass can create color using CMYK ink mixtures, you can imitate many Pantone colors.
Blacks will often be richer and darker when you're printing with multiple passes. You'll notice a greater tonal range because the blacks will be darker—even though you are dealing with the same number of levels of grays in the image. This works somewhat like putting on a second coat of paint. You may need to allow a few seconds of drying time between passes, and using a good quality photo-print paper is recommended.
Duotone curves can be used to make subtle changes and corrections in difficult black-and-white images. Although the images will not retain the richness of duotoning or the effect of multiple inks when printed in black and white, using duotone may help you visualize the change you want to make by adding more variables to the tone. Creating duotone effects to correct grayscale images can help strengthen subtle detail that already exists in the image.
For example, if you have an image with subtle highlight detail (such as a wedding picture where the dress detail can become somewhat washed out or faded due to harsh flash lighting), you can create a duotone to change the image emphasis in different tones. Open the image in black and white, and then create a duotone. In the case of the wedding dress, you might pick a black and a light-gray ink for your duotone colors. Use the light gray to emphasize the highlight area of the image; this will allow you to make fine adjustments.
With the duotone information separated into channels within the file, you have more flexibility to manipulate the file and get the desired results. For example, if you wanted to add type to your image in pure spot color, or in a specific mixture of colors included in the file, you can do that by manipulating the channels. This is just about impossible to pull off in a Duotone mode file.
To add type that is a specific mix of colors that won't be a natural mix of the duotone curves (say 100 percent of the light color and 25 percent of the dark), you need to adjust the tone in the channels separately. You can do this by creating a type layer and using that layer as a selection source for manipulating the channels:
1. Using the file from the previous example, choose the Type tool and click on the image to create a type layer.
2. Type in the text you want (to follow the example, type Wagontrain West), and then position the type and size it to fit. The color of the type doesn't matter at all, but you might want to select a color that comes close to how you imagine the result (to help with your preview).
3. Hold down the z/Ctrl key and click the type layer in the Layers palette to load the type as a selection.
4. Choose the channel/color you want to adjust and fill the selection with the percentage of that color that you want the type to have in grayscale. For this example, choose the Pantone 472 channel and fill with 100 percent black.
5. Choose the other channel/color and fill it. For our example, choose Black and fill with 25 percent black.
The channels that result from these steps are shown in Figure 2.24. While it may be best to handle the type in a separate file (using vectors) to get the sharpest result, this example should help you see how manual duotones allow more potential in manipulating files and results. These changes can also be made in an earlier stage in the layered channel file by directly adjusting the Duotone 1 and Duotone 2 layers using the selection.
Figure 2.24 With the type at 100 percent Pantone 472 (A) and 25 percent Black (B), the channels will look as they do here when adjusted.
Separating CMYK Color
RGB differs from CMYK in that RGB is a reflective light scheme and CMYK an absorptive one. When you add color (light) in RGB, the result gets brighter. When you add more CMYK color (pigment/ink), the result gets darker in what is just about exactly the opposite process. In fact, CMY and RGB have an interesting relationship as opposites, as we saw briefly in the first chapter.
Photoshop provides automated separation to CMYK. To make the separation all you have to do is choose CMYK from the Mode menu, and Photoshop will separate your image according to your specified color preferences (This can be one of the predefined standards from the CMYK Working Spaces in the Color Settings, or a custom definition). The CMYK command can be a godsend, but it almost completely disconnects you from the separation process. Once you can do a CMYK separation manually (few people who use Photoshop can), the reasoning behind the process will help you make good CMYK handling choices, and it will allow you to customize your separation results. Custom CMYK separation in Photoshop is not that easy because the program wrests control from you to simplify the process. In most cases this is handy, but it can certainly hamper your understanding of the color process.
CMYK separation can be a complicated topic, and this topic alone could fill an entire book. Let's now look at the process of manually separating CMYK right from RGB and examine some additional theory. Initially this discussion will just be a learning tool so that you can see the possibilities and complexity of CMYK separation options.
We'll walk through the separation process in three sections: the basic CMY separation, the handling of black separation, and the application of black to the image.
Step 1: Making the Basic CMY Separation
In theory, a CMY separation (with no K) is the inverse of RGB. In the RGB color scheme, cyan is a combination of pure blue and pure green, magenta a combination of pure red and pure blue, and yellow a combination of pure red and pure green. You can see color combination in action by opening the RGB.psd file on the CD. With this file open, move the colors around to see how they combine.
Blue is also really the inverse of yellow, green the inverse of magenta, and red the inverse of cyan. Note that they are in directly opposite positions in RGB.psd, CMYK.psd, and in ColorWheel.psd (all on the CD).
You can separate an image into CMY either by using the primary cyan, magenta and yellow colors as a filter or by using the RGB colors that make up those components. Screening an RGB image for blue and green will reveal cyan, screening for red and blue will reveal magenta, and screening for red and green reveals yellow. You can achieve the same effect by creating the RGB channels in layers and inverting each of the channel colors in turn. Completing the separation will give you a very basic CMY separation that works on screen—and in a perfect world. Because pigments (and the surfaces they are used on) are not 100 percent efficient in absorbing light, black is added to CMY to make CMYK. The added black increases the efficiency and dynamic range of the result—similar to the idea of using more than one ink in a duotone to extend dynamic range.
The four steps involved in creating the basic CMY separation are preparing the image, separating the color, converting separations to tone, and applying color for preview. We'll use the dragonfly.psd from the CD shown in Figure 2.25.
Set up the separation by duplicating the image background once for each of the CMY inks. Once the initial layers are created, you will be ready to start extracting color separations:
1. Duplicate the background layer of the flattened dragonfly.psd image.
2. Change the mode of the duplicate layer to Multiply.
3. Change the name of the layer to Cyan.
4. Duplicate the Cyan layer, and change the copied layer name to Magenta.
5. Duplicate the Magenta layer, and change the copied layer name to Yellow.
6. Activate the background layer.
7. Create a new layer.
8. Fill with white and name it Composite.
Figure 2.25 See the color section for more detail of this dragonfly.
You can complete these same steps by running the CMYK Setup action from the
Hidden Power Tools. The image will look awful at this point, but that doesn't
matter. Figure 2.26 shows how the Layers palette should look.

Aizawl, Jan 1 (UNI) The Centre has decided to open a regional office of the external affairs ministry in North Eastern states this year, official sources here today said.
In a recent letter foreign secretary Shivshankar Menon has asked the north eastern state governments to submit seperate proposals detailing the need of the office in the region.
Menon had announced the decision of opening a regional office of the ministry during a North Eastern Council (NEC) meeting in November 2006 for improving biliteral relationship with Bangladesh, Myanmar and China.
Sources further said the DoNER ministry had taken up the matter with external affairs ministry and recommended the need of a regional office in the region, as most of the NE states share border with neighbouring countries.
However, it had not been decided in which state the office will be established, sources said.
