Out of Hours Please call 111 if you need help between 6.30pm and 8.00am. Your call will be answered by NHS111 who will be able to direct you to a local service which best meets your needs. Please call on the practice telephone number after 8.00am. Between 8.00 and 8.45am, your call will be answered by our out of hours provider. After 8.45am your call will come through to us.
Telephone Advice
If you want to speak to the doctor on the telephone or just want some advice that doesn't require you coming in to the surgery, please ask for a telephone consultation. If you telephone before 10.00am your call will be returned the same morning.
Cancelling your Appointment
If you are unable to attend an appointment with one of the doctors or nurses, please telephone to let us know on 0161 227 9785 (Boundary) or 0161 872 8129 (City Road).
We're very sorry to inform patients that Dr Nortcliff is now leaving us for pastures new. Dr Nortcliff joined us as a Registrar in 2012 before becoming a Partner in 2013. He's made a big difference to both the practice and patients, and we're really sorry to see him go. His last day with us will be 21st July. We wish him every success for the future.
These days, new patients are registered with a practice rather than with a named GP. This means you can choose who you want to see when you book a routine appointment. But when does your doctor have routine surgeries? To help you, we've pulled together a timetable. Please note though that, with the exception of the GP Registrar, all of our doctors do telephone triage at least one morning during the week so if they're not on the timetable for a particular day, it doesn't mean that they're not working! Please also note that this timetable is subject to change if a doctor is off sick or on holiday!
Doctors' timetable from August 2016
We offer 10 minute appointments with the doctors. If you would prefer to see a particular doctor, please let us know when you make the appointment.
We aim to provide pre-bookable appointments within 2 working days but this may not always be with the doctor of your choice.
For same day appointments, we run a telephone triage service from Monday to Friday at both of our practice sites. If you need a same day appointment, please call us between 8.45 and 10.00am. We will then arrange for a doctor to call you back within 20 minutes of your call. If the doctor feels you need to be seen that day, they will make an appointment for you to come in later that morning.
Any emergency requests made after 10.00am will be dealt with by the duty doctor for that day.
We offer appointments from 8am on Tuesday and Friday at our Booth Street site.
If you have booked an appointment but later find you do not need it or are unable to attend please telephone the surgery and cancel so that another patient can be offered that appointment.
When you attend for your appointment, please check in at Reception. Tell us if any of your personal information has changed. Both surgeries are fully accessible for patients with disabilities and there are counter-loop systems in both of the reception areas.
Although we're not currently able to offer late evening and weekend appointments ourselves, we're part of an 'extended access' scheme in Manchester - this means that, if you do want an appointment after 6pm or at the weekend and you don't mind which doctor you see, we can book an appointment for you at The Arch Medical Practice (on Royce Road). Please ask us for more information if you're interested in this.
If you are unable to come to the surgery because you are housebound please contact reception and we will be happy to arrange for the doctor to visit you. Requests for home visits should be made before 10.00 am.
A doctor or nurse may phone you back as it may be that your problem can be dealt with by telephone advice, or that it would be more appropriate to arrange a hospital attendance.
House visits are only available for patients who are housebound because of illness or disability.
Please remember that several patients can be seen in the practice in the time that it takes to make one home visit. There are also better facilities for examining and treating patients at the practice.
If you wish to speak to the doctor on the telephone or wish to consult the doctor about an issue for which you will not need to be examined, please ask for a telephone consultation.
If you telephone before 10.00am your call will be returned the same morning.

Our History
The Town of Bradley was formally organized in 1903, but the first town meeting wasn't held till April 9th, 1904. This meeting was a joint meeting between the Town of Bradley and the Town of Tomahawk for the purpose of disposing of the property of the two towns. The meeting was held in Bay Mill. The two town boards met again on April 22nd, 1904 to determine the valuation of each town. Real estate and personal property for the town of Bradley was $266,734.00. The Town of Bradley received one safe, five chairs, one press, one clock, the total value of $129.61. Also, machinery included one road slusher (old), one slusher at Lewerenz's and one wheel scraper. (???) The Town of Bradley was also the recipient of $184.10 of the debt.
The first town officials were: M.L. Parshall, Chairman; Karl Kriigel, Supervisor; Jos. Anderson, Supervisor; Geo. R. DeLand, Clerk; John Hathaway, Treasurer; Geo. W. Smith, Justice of the Peace; Frank Harrington, Justice of the Peace and Albert Sill, Treasurer.
As the early minutes record, meetings were often held at roadside sites, private homes, the City of Tomahawk Council Chambers and finally at the first town hall built in 1979.
Elections were held in school buildings, the National Guard Armory, the Odd Fellow Hall in Tomahawk, and then at the town hall.
We are fortunate to have in our vault a complete set of minutes of the town. They passed from clerk to clerk for many years without losing even one!!!
The first town hall and garage building served our needs well until the addition of files, maps, computers and computer desks caused the offices to become crowded. The new addition was completed in 2003.
Both of the building projects were paid for with a building fund program by a yearly accrual to the building fund. This cost was experienced yearly over a period of years rather than borrow the money and pay interest, or to levy a large amount in one year. The past and present town boards can be credited with the foresight to plan for the future. The present facility is one the town can be proud of and should be sufficient to meet the needs of the Town of Bradley for many years to come.

limit. I repeated this exercise several times, removing one or two coils each time and at last I have a nice HW 95
running at 11.5 -11.6 using AA Fields and 11. 7-8 using Accupels. It is plenty accurate enough for me at 28 yards.
I just think it is a shame that Weihrauch have thought it necessary to spoil their guns in this manner, especially
the 95 which is / was such a smashing rifle. I think the 95 in its original form was better than this carbine but I think I'm going to be happy now. The Titan spring has ended up (with properly finished end) about the same length as the original. By the way, I was glad to see that Weihrauch are at least finishing off their springs
properly again.

Wow; that was a bit drastic just to get another 1.5 - 2 ft.lbs! Power isn't everything and with a factory standard rifle, a bit on the low side is good since it permits the fitting of a Delrin TopHat which with a 3mm flange and a stainless steel 1.2mm washer in piston to rest on and perhaps another on the flange to support the spring with one more on the main guide flange, increases the pre-load by 6.6mm (assuming the spring doesn't go solid!) which should increase the ME by around (0.18 - 0.25) times the additional pre-load {the actual multiplier depends upon many factors but mainly the ratio of initial pre-load to piston stroke!
After testing, if a little more ME is required just add a bit of packing such as a Delrin ring to the main guide between the flange and the bearing torsion washer!
I find that a modest pre-load 15-25mm depending upon model gives me the best balance between, smoothness, lock-time, recoil (both before discharge and after discharge) and renders the action easily serviced without a spring compressor (although I always use one on a strange rifle!).
Hope that may help others with any similar problem! The philosophy works for any model I have yet encountered by the way and is well-founded in theoretical as well as practical engineering!
MODS:- Love the Xmas theme!
Posted 12 December 2013 - 08:54 AM
Dave , the main point of my post was about Weihrauch advertising their guns as 12 ft. lbs. and selling them with 9.5 ft. lbs. I know that power isn't everything but if I want 11.5 ft. lbs. , that is up to me. All those Delrin bits you mention cost more than a Titan spring which is very good quality.

Sorry; didn't mean to ignore that issue since it is key to the argument and is mis-advertising!
The modern HW guides are much better than the slayed end steel ones so can be retained. ME can be improved easily by increasing the pre-load on the standard spring to give (I would suggest 11 ft.lbs with a medium weight pellet to allow for the huge increase possible with lighter ones!). You would only need 6-8mm to get that and so 3-4 nylon washers dropped into the piston would provide that without over-weighting the moving parts. That is then cheaper than a Titan spring! Titan springs are top notch but often need shortening which can be as much of a challenge to the average owner as adding pre-load to the standard spring! I use them myself occasionally! Of course, knocking up a correctly fitting guide and TopHat improves smoothness and consistency enormously and is only expensive if you can't do it yourself or have a pal who can!
At least with the demise of the splayed-end ill-fitting steel guide and two properly (almost) finished ends on the spring, one is a long way to wards a nice shooting rifle than in the bad old days!
It all adds interest to our magnificent sport doesn't it!
Merry Christmas to all and a Happy, Healthy and Prosperous New Year

Weihrauh selling their airguns with German limit springs fitted. You must order EXPORT spring as well, and change by yourselve.
Only HW airguns bought outside Germany may have different spring fitted..
Interesting thing - 7,5J German limit spring for HW 98 mounted in TX200 is giving 16J with 0 pre-compression..
TX rulez..
My TX..
Posted 08 September 2015 - 09:06 AM
HW is shooting itself in the foot repeatedly.....they make some cracking rifles but the level of finish and attention to detail has slipped. Why should you need to go in and mess around with internals at all on "New Rifles".
You would think the design team at HW would change tact and embrace the "Tune" up improvements at the production phase and smash some of their competition. How much more cost would a Delrin ring at the back of the piston cost like a Walther or TX ?
A decent spring and fitted spring guides / washers etc.if it put £30 on the rifle I'd be surprised. Walther LGV and AA springers are really starting to show up the HW brand shortcomings. I consider HW to be in a position to need to do something about their range other than cosmetics of stock changes etc to keep any momentum going.
The whispers of the production of some springer's being moved to China would really damage the German engineered quality that was their "bedrock" and why they stood out. They could well be debasing their whole brand identity doing this.

12 Important Points for New Drug & Alcohol Counselors
The following suggestions were prepared by all of the counselors at our affordable long term drug rehab, Into Action Treatment, in Boynton Beach Florida. We hope you find the information useful!
1) Get a good supervisor.
Your supervisor is going to train you during your several thousand required clinical hours before you are certified and licensed. You will be discussing personal reactions and feelings towards patients, you may disclose personal experiences which relate to how you feel and react toward patients, and you will receive practical, didactic information. Your supervisor will have to take responsibility for your actions, and sign off on your progress notes, treatment plans, and evaluations. Eventually, your supervisor will have to recommend you for licensure when you submit your application. A trusting relationship is essential. I had a very good supervisor during my first four years as an apprentice. I moved to a different clinic, and had a not so good supervisor. He was not knowledgeable about substance abuse, and I quickly found that the office politics in this clinic bordered on psychosis. There was no trust whatsoever. I hired my own supervisor, and paid $50 a week out of pocket. This was the best money I could have spent. I learned a great deal, received crucial information about finishing the licensure process, and he helped me keep perspective and maintain my sanity in what became a very high stress work environment.
2) Keep a journal.
Record significant events and pieces of information. This journal can be adopted to build a personal clinical guide- record authors, researchers, terminology, concepts, and theories as you hear about them. We all have pieces of information that we just cannot seem to cram into our overtaxed cortices- build a personal guide that you can refer to for your professional growth and development.
3) Be aware of trends, but beware of following them.
When I worked in the halfway house, Psychiatric Rehabilitation or psych rehab was the catchphrase, along with ACOA (Adult Children Of Alcoholics). When I first started out in the clinical field as an apprentice, hardly a day passed when I did not about the Stages of Change Model. Now it's Mindfulness and Meditation. Trends come and go, and will occur in any field of endeavor, including substance abuse treatment. It is important to be aware of them, but that does not mean embracing every trend as the ultimate solution to all problems. Always think critically, be skeptical, and work to prove your beliefs wrong. Test the null hypothesis constantly. Be aware of the availability heuristic; the tendency to accept as correct the information we are most frequently presented.
4) Focus on ethics or you may have a short career.
Know the code of ethics in the state you are practicing in, know the NAADAC (National Association for Alcohol and Drug Abuse Counselors) code of ethics.
Learn About:
- HIPPA (Health Insurance Privacy and Portability Act) United States Department of Health and Human Services, n.d.).
- 42 CFR ( Code of Federal Regulations, Title 42) (United States Government Printing Office, 2015).
- USA PATRIOT (Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism) Act (United States Government Printing Office, 2001).
- Tarasoff vs. Board of Regents of CA (Tarasoff v. Regents of the University of California, 1976).
- Peck vs. Addison County (Leagle, 2014).
These are laws and legal precedence which pertain to patient confidentiality and the limits thereof. Know them well.
5) Mind your public behavior.
Appearance matters (Porter, 2014). Your reputation in the professional community and among the public will be a very important part of your career growth.
6) Save paper and electronic records.
Save every continuing education certificate, your course syllabi, course descriptions, notes and emails from your supervisor- save it all. You will need the continuing education certificates and syllabi/course descriptions when you apply for licensure. A complimentary or critical note from your supervisor about important issues should be retained for review later to internalize the information.
7) Make your office organized, efficient, and safe.
Keep your office uncluttered, neat and clean. Keep decorations to a minimum so there are not distractions to the therapy hour. A clock, calendar, a map of the state or city, and your degrees and credentials are all that should be on the walls.
As a drug and alcohol counselor, nearly all of the patients you see will have some involvement with the criminal justice system- past, present, or ongoing. Some will be career criminals, and some are potentially dangerous. I do not keep hard or objects on my desk, nor any personal photos. Do not leave anything in sight that could be used as a weapon, never get between the door and a patient, and be very careful of self-disclosure. Personal information about you, your family, or intimates is ill-advised. If someone gets agitated, they may just walk out. Let them go, and don't get in their way. An unobstructed path to the door is important for this reason. An agitated patient may threaten you- don't let your family or those close to you get involved. A photo of your spouse or children may lead to them being included in the threat.
Keep a drawer of healthy snacks for those days when you are seeing patients back to back, and have no time to get out and get some lunch.
8) Take good care of you.
It is easy to get burned out. You will not save everyone. You will help some of your patients, sometimes, in some ways. You will help people to improve their lives, beat their addiction, enjoy success, be happy, and stop hurting themselves and others. But not everyone. You will lose patients to overdose, suicide, homicide, and drug and alcohol related accidents. Your grave concerns for the health and well-being of your patients will sometimes be returned will casual indifference, or oblivious denial. When you work hard to get someone better over months, they will undo it all in one night. You will hear their stories of incest, domestic violence, victimization, trauma, suffering, and lost opportunities. When you are not at work, you will have to leave all of this behind, and tend to yourself. Social supports, faith and spirituality, physical fitness, and hobbies and pursuits unrelated to the job will be a necessity.
9) Select an area or three and become an expert.
Find your interests- opiates? Alcohol? PTSD? Domestic violence? Become an expert on at least one, but not more than three areas, and focus your continuing education and reading in those areas.
10) Read & read & read- and broaden your interests.
Read scholarly, peer reviewed article, and popular literature articles about drugs, alcohol, chemical dependency, mental health, and recovery. Read material related to or remote from the field to stay well informed, and prevent over focus, or a myopic point of view.
Good topics are:
- History
- Political science
- Law
- Criminal Justice
- Classic literature
- Theology
- Philosophy
- Biological sciences
- Chemistry
11) Keep an annotated bibliography of everything you read …
… every book, article, educational video, and continuing education conference or training you attend. If you ever find yourself in court, being cross-examined, and the opposing counsel asks "what do you know about PTSD? You are "only" a drug counselor. You can answer with confidence that you have read 137 scholarly peer-reviewed articles and attended 74.5 hours of continuing education on PTSD. This will also be useful at job interviews.
12) Exude Confidence, Competence, and Compassion.
Look sharp and squared away. You don't have to over dress, but you need to be neat and clean, and well groomed. You should be physically fit. Present a picture of health, good hygiene and self –care to your patients. You will be playing for a tough audience. Your personal presentation and initial impression will determine how much you are trusted, and taken seriously.
You must also be assertive, firm and decisive. Speak like you know what you are talking about. This does not mean embellish, exaggerate, or lie. If you don't know something, say so. Speaking and presenting yourself with confidence will best occur when it is for real, which mean you have been studious and attentive to learn your job well. Compassion is critical. To work with such physically and psychologically damaged individuals as addicts, you must genuinely care about individuals, your community and society as a whole.
Drug and alcohol counselors have a very important job. You will help people break free of their addiction, and become sober, serene, healthy, and productive. Develop expertise, and reflect well on yourself and the profession.

A minor issue occurred with one of the items I ordered being out of stock. The important thing for me was that this was communicated promptly and clearly and the action to recover the situation occurred swiftly. It was my first order but I got a good impression that OutdoorGB care about their customers, even when the order value is very modest like mine was.
It's also good to see that they are keen to collect feedback that will allow them to promote but more importantly improve any aspects of their service customers are not satisfied with.

TOM arrived at home in a dreary mood, and the first thing his aunt said to him showed him that he had brought his sorrows to an unpromising market:
"Tom, I've a notion to skin you alive!"
"Auntie, what have I done?"
"Well, you've done enough. Here I go over to Sereny Harper, like an old softy, expecting I'm going to make her believe all that rubbage about that dream, when lo and behold you she'd found out from Joe that you was over here and heard all the talk we had that night. Tom, I don't know what is to become of a boy that will act like that. It makes me feel so bad to think you could let me go to Sereny Harper and make such a fool of myself and never say a word."
This was a new aspect of the thing. His smartness of the morning had seemed to Tom a good joke before, and very ingenious. It merely looked mean and shabby now. He hung his head and could not think of anything to say for a moment. Then he said:
"Auntie, I wish I hadn't done it – but I didn't think."
"Oh, child, you never think. You never think of anything but your own selfishness. You could think to come all the way over here from Jackson's Island in the night to laugh at our troubles, and you could think to fool me with a lie about a dream; but you couldn't ever think to pity us and save us from sorrow."
"Auntie, I know now it was mean, but I didn't mean to be mean. I didn't, honest. And besides, I didn't come over here to laugh at you that night."
"What did you come for, then?"
"It was to tell you not to be uneasy about us, because we hadn't got drownded."
"Tom, Tom, I would be the thankfullest soul in this world if I could believe you ever had as good a thought as that, but you know you never did – and I know it, Tom."
"Indeed and 'deed I did, auntie – I wish I may never stir if I didn't."
"Oh, Tom, don't lie – don't do it. It only makes things a hundred times worse."
"It ain't a lie, auntie; it's the truth. I wanted to keep you from grieving – that was all that made me come."
"I'd give the whole world to believe that – it would cover up a power of sins, Tom. I'd 'most be glad you'd run off and acted so bad. But it ain't reasonable; because, why didn't you tell me, child?"
"Why, you see, when you got to talking about the funeral, I just got all full of the idea of our coming and hiding in the church, and I couldn't somehow bear to spoil it. So I just put the bark back in my pocket and kept mum."
"What bark?"
"The bark I had wrote on to tell you we'd gone pirating. I wish, now, you'd waked up when I kissed you – I do, honest."
The hard lines in his aunt's face relaxed and a sudden tenderness dawned in her eyes.
"Did you kiss me, Tom?"
"Why, yes, I did."
"Are you sure you did, Tom?"
"Why, yes, I did, auntie – certain sure."
"What did you kiss me for, Tom?"
"Because I loved you so, and you laid there moaning and I was so sorry."
The words sounded like truth. The old lady could not hide a tremor in her voice when she said:
"Kiss me again, Tom! – and be off with you to school, now, and don't bother me any more."
The moment he was gone, she ran to a closet and got out the ruin of a jacket which Tom had gone pirating in. Then she stopped, with it in her hand, and said to herself:
"No, I don't dare. Poor boy, I reckon he's lied about it – but it's a blessed, blessed lie, there's such a comfort come from it. I hope the Lord – I know the Lord will forgive him, because it was such good-heartedness in him to tell it. But I don't want to find out it's a lie. I won't look."
She put the jacket away, and stood by musing a minute. Twice she put out her hand to take the garment again, and twice she refrained. Once more she ventured, and this time she fortified herself with the thought: "It's a good lie – it's a good lie – I won't let it grieve me." So she sought the jacket pocket. A moment later she was reading Tom's piece of bark through flowing tears and saying: "I could forgive the boy, now, if he'd committed a million sins!"

How do you leave a reputation comment for somebody in their control panel?
At the bottom left of someones post that you like are three symbols. One is an online green sign....one is a scale.....and one is a caution sign. The scale is the one for leaving a reputation kudos thingy. The caution sign is to report that post to the mods.
*smacks forehead*
Thank you I should have been able to figure that out.
Exactly. When you click on the scale it gives you a box for adding reputation and a spot to put a comment.
I was wondering the same thing and never thought to look over there. DUH!
Thank you!
Peace and blessings,

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I'm raising money for Chest Heart and Stroke Scotland because they help people who have all those things. And some who don't.
As you may or may not know, my Dad died suddenly of a heart attack in September of 2010. Due to the suddenness of it, CH&SS would not have been able to do much about it but I'm hoping someone else will benefit, if even just a little. If my donation buys someone enough time to say their goodbyes to their loved ones, I'll be happy.
So I'm going to abseil off the side of the Forth Bridge. Which is mental. But apparently makes more people give you money so it's all good.
I need at least £500 or they don't give me a safety rope.
Thanks for any donation

- For other uses of the word "dragon," see Dragon.
The Dragon Banner is the banner of Lews Therin Telamon, also known as the Dragon. It has a picture of a rippling dragon on it. It is described as being neither woven nor sewn together nor painted, but all of one piece.
The original banner, recovered from the Eye of the World, is displayed on top of the Stone of Tear.
The Dragon Banner may in fact be a ter'angreal of some sort or have some other connection to the Horn of Valere; the Heroes summoned by the Horn seemed to consider it important, and it was found along with the Horn. It is possible that the Heroes will follow the one who holds the Dragon Banner, or that they will only follow the Dragon into battle; in either case, they appeared to refuse to enter the Battle of Falme until the Banner was properly flown.[1]

According to representatives of the network of Kazakh cinema, showing the magic of the film «beauty and the beast» can not take place for technical reasons that arose with the partner company «Meloman». However, some experts believe that the film will not take place due to the homosexual context. At the moment, a fabulous movie has not received the rental license, which is a necessary part for rental.
We will remind, Vitaly Milonov has proposed to prohibit the showing of the film «beauty and the beast», as the film promotes non-traditional love. However, the representatives of the Ministry of culture not found in the musical allusions to gay culture.
It is worth saying that the audience of Kazakhstan are still in the dark when the cinema screens will show the film «beauty and the beast» starring Emma Watson in the lead role.

Posted to Reddit's survey subreddit, /r/SampleSize/, this graph breaks down which sports are considered the sportiest (or which sports people do not consider sports at all). Depends on how you look at it, we guess. Kind of a glass half-full scenario.
NOTE: Major team sports like basketball, baseball, soccer, football, and hockey are not included.
Not surprisingly, boxing received the most votes (hard to ague with "fighting" as a sport), while darts got the controversial edge over cheerleading. The real shocker is that chess is considered more of a sport than competitive eating — which actually involves physical training.
Oh, and this should piss off plenty of NASCAR fans: 36 sports are consider "sportier" than stock car racing. Ouch. "Sports" like disc golf and dodgeball and kickball. And F1.
Double ouch.

I'm Asking: What's Your Back-Up Plan?
I'm Asking: What's Your Back-Up Plan?
My dad always says, "Hope for the best but plan for the worst." More and more people are adopting this philosophy and creating back-up plans in case an unwelcome surprise comes along — they're brainstorming about alternate careers, considering relocation options, and investing in education to support future opportunities. What back-up plan(s) do you have in mind?

VANCOUBER, B.C. - Vancouver police are looking for a man who is accused of groping a 12-year-old girl Friday night.
Police say three girls left a community centre in the city's West End shortly before 9 p.m.
They say the girls noticed a man outside staring at them.
The girls told police they saw the man again as they continued their walk, and on this second encounter, they said he ran up and grabbed one of them.
Police say the man fled on foot and although the victim was shaken by the incident, she was not physically injured.
Police are searching for the suspect who they describe as white with a fair complexion, some facial hair and was wearing grey clothing, a dark hat and had a black backpack.

Yesterday was Manic Monday, the busiest online shopping day of the year. But as online Christmas purchases begin to arrive, there's yet another spending headache on the horizon. The rate of VAT, the tax that is slapped on most of our purchases, is set to rise on January 4.
The VAT increase, from 17.5 per cent to 20 per cent, is one of the new Government's revenue-raisers. It will hit your wallet, especially if you are planning to buy large items in the January sales. Even where shops may want to slash prices, they will have less room to manoeuvre.
If you want to beat the rise, you will need to act soon. "I would be looking to bring purchases forward," says VAT expert Martin Dane, from the accountants BDO. The rise, although it may not sound much, will soon add up if you are spending on big-ticket items, he says.
A £15,000 car will be £320 more expensive, and a £1,000 laptop will cost £20 more. With many retailers expected to bring forward their sales to before Christmas, it's worth working out which items to buy before the increase, especially if you have major projects planned.
There's already evidence that savvy shoppers are buying in advance. John Lewis reported a record online week last week, with customers buying televisions and other technology items.
Richard Stables, chief executive of the price-checking site Kelkoo, says the VAT rise will provide an impetus to pre-Christmas sales. "Every household in the country is facing a steeper VAT bill, amounting to an additional £1.16 per day," he says.
To avoid being stung by the rise, you need to know which items are subject to VAT, and which can be bought now. Here is a quick guide to avoiding as much of the extra tax as possible, without missing out on retailers' bargains.
Know your enemy
Value Added Tax is a tax you pay for goods and services from any VAT-registered business in the EU. However, you don't pay it on everything, and on some items you pay only a reduced rate, so it's worth knowing when you have to pay it.
Books, newspapers, magazines and children's clothes, for example, do not attract the tax, so if you're planning to buy any of these in the New Year you will not be affected. Some food (generally less luxurious items) also does not attract the tax. If you want to know if a particular item will attract VAT, you can check on the HMRC website.
Some items attract a reduced rate of VAT at five per cent, which is not changing. For example, most building work attracts standard VAT, which will be 20 per cent, but if a building is empty it attracts VAT at a reduced rate, and building a new home is free of VAT. If you're making alterations to your own home, they will be liable to VAT, unless your home is a listed building, where approved alterations are zero-rated.
Other items charged at a lower rate include electricity and gas for residential use, home energy-saving materials and children's car seats.
Know when it is applied
When you're buying ordinary goods, and you receive them straightaway, the VAT rate is charged at the time your money is taken.
The tax office has put rules in place for any supply of goods and services that might span the rate change. Martin Dane says if you pay a deposit for goods such as a kitchen before Christmas, the deposit will attract the old rate of VAT, but the balance, if paid after January 4, would attract the new rate. He adds that when putting down a large deposit for an item, it's important to make sure that the company is financially secure.
If you pay in full before Christmas, but have the goods delivered afterwards, you should still pay the 17.5 per cent rate. Tuesday January 4 follows a bank holiday weekend, so you might need to pay by Friday December 13 if you're trying to beat the deadline.
Understand the savings
"For big-ticket items, the rise does make a difference," says Matthew Piner, senior retail analyst at the consultancy Verdict. For example, if you're having a new kitchen fitted in the New Year, you could save hundreds in taxes by buying it now. However, it's important to bear in mind the January sales factor, since retailers could reduce prices heavily after Christmas.
Don't miss the discounts
Mr Piner warns that retailers are already edging up prices in expectation of a VAT increase. "If I was going to buy something, I would get it now when there is more room for negotiation," he says.
Simon James, of Moneysupermarket, says many retailers will start their January sales before Christmas, giving you the perfect window to buy: "After midday on Christmas Day is a good time to shop, so when you've opened the presents and got dinner on, you can sit down in front of the computer and buy that new washing machine."
Keep your money safe
If you're buying things in advance, the best way to avoid losing them through companies going bust is to buy on your credit card. That way you'll be protected through a regulation called Section 75. If you pay for an item costing between £100 and £30,000 on a credit card, the card issuer is equally liable if something goes wrong, for example if the company goes out of business or won't deliver the goods.
Beware of paying tradesmen and builders in advance to avoid VAT increases, since if the builder were to go bust or not carry out the work, you would have little redress.
Some of the most sensible items to buy in advance of the VAT increase include:
– Theatre or festival tickets for anything you may want to attend in 2011 – especially as you might get ''early bird'' discounts on top
– Gym subscriptions
– A new car, or car service; electrical or other consumer goods
– A new kitchen

Contrary to the DNC Chairman's Predictions, Democrats Aren't Running On Obamacare
DNC chairman Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz of Florida predicted that Democrats would be running for their re-election on Obamacare this year. Rep. Joe Garcia, also of Florida, apparently didn't get the memo. Neither did the House Democrat PAC that's supporting him.
The PAC is up with an ad defending Miami Rep. Joe Garcia, but it's not attacking rivals like Republican Carlos Curbelo. Instead, it's insulating him against claims he's an Obamacare apologist is an object lesson in how Democrats look like they're running scared from the Affordable Care Act.
"Joe Garcia is working to fix Obamacare. He voted to let you keep your existing health plan and took the White House to task for the disastrous healthcare website," the upbeat narrator says.

You can change the way the list of locations is rendered by updating the Results Layout setting under the Experience tab of Store Locator Plus. It appears in the Results panel when you have the Experience add-on installed.
Results Layout determines how the location data is rendered below the map. It is a combination of basic HTML and Store Locator Plus short codes that are loaded into your locator page when the page is first rendered on the screen. The Results Layout will vary depending on the SLP Plugin style selected When a location search is performed, either automatically via "immediate mode" or when a user enters an address, the returned results are formatted using the Results Layout and displayed in the results section below the map.
Changing The Setting
The Results Format setting is a text entry that appears under the Store Locator Plus Experience tab in the Results Section.
Default Format
The default format for the results string uses the numerical encoding for the various data elements that can be rendered. This is the default string format that is present in the base Store Locator Plus plugin. You can reset the string to the default at any time by deleting the entry in the Results Layout admin field and saving the settings.

Single serve coffee makers utilize coffee pods to brew a cup of coffee. Coffee lovers can find their perfect cup of coffee with the variety of beverages available in coffee pods such as coffee, milk-based specialties, hot chocolate, tea and many more. Single serve brewers are intended for those who enjoy the comfort of making smaller servings of coffee. With today's economy, coffee lovers can now save some money by brewing their perfect cup of coffee at home, rather than frequently heading to the local coffee shops. Single serve coffee machines can also entertain house guests especially when you have a variety of K-cups available for your guests to enjoy.
1. Keurig K45 Elite Brewing System
3. Hamilton Beach 49981 Single Serve
#1 Keurig K45 Elite Brewing System
The company Keurig was built upon the brewing of single cups/serves of coffee that provide greater consistency in the quality of the coffee. Keurig is a Dutch word that means "proper" and the inventors saw the translation as meaning Excellence. The Keurig K45 Elite Brewing System is one of Keurig's best single cup coffee machines and is currently the #1 best selling single serve brewer on Amazon. The Keurig K45 is an easy to brew coffeemaker that allows the consumers to enjoy an awesome fresh brewed taste, cup after cup. You can choose from three different brewing sizes – small (6oz), medium (8oz) and large (10oz). The machine also features an auto shut off power saving mode after 2 hours, removable drip tray, a new carbon filter system and Quiet Brew technology that makes this machine quieter as compared to the previous models. The machine also includes a water filter starter kit plus 1 replacement filter, and a 12-count variety pack.
Consumers are happy that they can use their own ground coffee or tea using the Keurig K45, with the help of a re-usable K-cup. This is an important feature for passionate consumers who also wanted to be able to brew any brand of coffee in their coffee machine. By using K-cups, consumers are delighted to find that they can produce great tasting coffee that's definitely hot, even the tea K-cup tastes as good as if it was from having boiling water in a kettle.

#2 BUNN MCU Single Cup Multi-Use Home Coffee Brewer
Bunn-o-Matic Corporation introduced the world's 1st automatic drip-brew coffee machine in 1963. The Bunn My Cafe MCU is the company's offering in the single cup coffee machine category. The BUNN MCU can brew K-cups, ground coffee, tea pods or bags, loose tea and more. With four different brewing drawers, you can enjoy total flexibility for all your moods. The look of the machine is quite industrial which isn't a surprise knowing the majority of Bunn's coffee makers are made for commercial use. But it exhibits durability and functionality that consumers can count on.
There are several 'taste tests' posted on the internet comparing different single cup brewers and the Bunn MCU always comes out on top. One example of an independent taste test of this coffee maker came from a consumer who bought the Bunn MCU on Amazon. He did a side by side taste test using Bunn MCU and another coffee machine. He used the same K-cup and Bunn MCU produced hotter, more aromatic and fuller flavored coffee without the bitterness. The other single cup machine brew was a little flat in flavor and had a touch of bitterness. Users also like its 'Pulse Brew' feature to extract bolder flavor. Though the machine doesn't have a water reservoir, (so you have to put water in for each cup). This is a hidden benefit as it makes us use only use fresh water for each cup of coffee, and also enables us to tweak the volume of water to get our preferred coffee strength.
Amazon's Customer Ratings: 4.1 stars (1,573 Customer Reviews)
- Includes 4 separate drawers to brew from K-cups to pods, to fresh ground coffee and tea pods, and also dispenses hot water (200 degrees F) for many uses

Official statement by David Davis on Brexit:
And so, as we proceed, we will be guided by some clear principles. First, as I said, we wish to build a national consensus around our position. Second, while always putting the national interest first, we will always act in good faith towards our European partners. Third, wherever possible we will try to minimise any uncertainty that change can inevitably bring. And, fourth, crucially, we will – by the end of this process – have left the European Union, and put the sovereignty and supremacy of this Parliament beyond doubt.
There isn't a great deal of detail. As has been said elsewhere, the Japanese Government seem to have a better and more detailed idea of what they want out of Brexit than the British Government does. If you are following these things closely, though, you will want to take a look at what David Davis says and read the whole thing.
For what it is worth, my take is that there is no hard line being adopted here on free movement of workers. It looks like EEA style "soft Brexit" so far, although there will no doubt have to be some sort of additional restrictions on immigration. It has been suggested that requiring a job offer before admission to the UK might be a UK negotiating position. The principle of free movement of workers absolutely depends on being able to move to another country in search of work, though, so that would in my view exclude the possibility of access to the EU's single market and is therefore unlikely as a final outcome.
In other related news, No 10 has ruled out a full Points Based System for immigration control.Hopefully that means the existing and disastrous UK so-called Points Based System is heading for the scrap heap as well. Theresa May has talked about "some controls" on EU immigration, which also sounds fairly soft.
Meanwhile, there is still no news on the status of EU migrants currently residing in the UK.

There seems to be a disturbing trend forming in the stands during baseball games. Terror-stricken men jumping out of the way to allow foul/home run balls to pummel their girlfriends. It happened last season in Houston and again last night in Arizona. Watch the video below. Chivalry should not be completely dead. I know the sight of a baseball hurtling toward you can be scary, but sac up and try to catch it. Your woman's mug deserves it.

text: Jan 28 - Fitch Ratings has upgraded Triton (European Loan Conduit No. 26) Plc's notes, as follows: GBP77.8m Class A1 (XS0294600514) upgraded to 'AAsf' from 'Asf'; Outlook Stable GBP23.0m Class A2 (XS0294602486) upgraded to 'AAsf' from 'Asf'; Outlook Stable USD87.3m Class B (XS0294620207) upgraded to 'Asf' from 'BBBsf'; Outlook Stable GBP12.0m Class C (XS0294603294) upgraded to 'BBsf' from'Bsf'; Outlook Stable GBP1.9m Class D (XS0294603708) upgraded to 'BBsf' from 'Bsf'; Outlook Stable GBP3.8m Class E (XS0294604185) upgraded to 'BBsf' from 'CCCsf'; Outlook Stable GBP4.2m Class F (XS0294604771) upgraded to 'Bsf' from 'CCsf'; Outlook Stable GBP8.4m Class G (XS0294607287) upgraded to 'Bsf' from 'CCsf'; Outlook Stable GBP9.4m Class H (XS0294608335) upgraded to 'Bsf' from 'CCsf'; Outlook Stable The previously distressed ratings on the class E to H notes reflected the expected losses from the work out of the GBP285.5m Devonshire Square loan - a view which was driven by the deteriorating income profile of the assets with close to half of in place rent expiring in 2014 and a 2010 valuation at over 100% loan-to-value ratio that showed little sponsor equity left. The loan's 2011 restructure, and implementation of a business plan, was clearly successful with an asset sale subsequently achieved at a level which allowed full repayment of the securitised loan. The modified pro rata distribution of sale proceeds, 80% of which was allocated to class A, significantly improved the credit quality of all note classes as evidenced by the upgrades. The larger of the two remaining loans, the GBP158.4m Access Self Storage loan, makes up 85% of the remaining pool. The loan is secured by 30 self-storage facilities, 86% of which are located in Greater London (by market value), which meet interest costs from revenues derived from the operating business. Income generation has been robust with the portfolio enjoying positive year-on-year growth for both occupancy and net operating income since 2009. This is attributed to the high proportion of London assets, which not only benefit from the housing market churn, like the wider storage centre market, but also have greater access to customers with longer-term storage needs due to a general lack of residential storage space. The asset performance to date provides some confidence that full repayment will be achieved, particularly in light of the strong cash flow and six-year tail period until bond maturity which would assist with any necessary deleveraging. However, this confidence is tempered somewhat by the operating nature of the assets, for which detailed financial reports are not available to Fitch, and the relatively unknown appetite for both lenders and investors for this asset class. The other remaining loan, the GBP26.9m Nextra Portfolio UK loan, is secured by two office properties located in Rickmansworth and Watford. Both assets are let to single tenants with a combined weighted average lease term of 8.07 years providing good continuity of income. The properties are located in a secondary area, which has seen yields widen significantly to that of prime in recent years. However, Fitch estimates that sufficient equity remains to avoid any losses. Fitch will continue to monitor the performance of the transaction. A performance update will be made available shortly on the agency's website, www.fitchratings.com. Additional information is available at www.fitchratings.com. The ratings above were solicited by, or on behalf of, the issuer, and therefore, Fitch has been compensated for the provision of the ratings. The sources of information used to assess these ratings were the issuer, servicer, and periodic cash manager and servicer reports.

Many of them from the 50's and 60's have no insulation, single glazed windows and "radiator fin" balconies. Yet millions around the world call them home; can they be upgraded and retrofitted?
In Toronto, the The Tower Renewal Project is "an initiative to re-examine these buildings' remarkable heritage, neighbourhood histories, current place in our city, and future potential in a green and equitable Toronto."

Architects Graeme Stewart and Michael McClelland of ERA Architects are working on a faceade-retrofit strategy that adds a second skin to the existing brick filing cabinets without disturbing the tenants; it has integrated sun shading, insulation, solar hot water heating and vertical chases to bring in new services. The balconies are enclosed (but with big operable windows) to eliminate heat loss. Result: a modern, efficient building built without a gut job that displaces and disrupts everyone inside.
In Germany and other European cities they have been doing this for years; in North America, private building owners don't have huge incentives to do this, and public sector housing is barely maintained, let alone improved. When vacancy rates were low and there was real rent control, building owners loved renovating apartments because it was the only way to get increased rents; perhaps it is time to look at it again. ::Toronto Tower Renewal
