Hi: 10° Lo:8° 7 day
A MAN found dead in a Redditch wood has been named as a missing father of one.
Michael Lubak was last seen on November 13 after leaving his home in High Trees Close to go to work.
The body of the 28-year-old was found at 8.10am on Thursday (January 3) by a couple out walking near Pitcheroak Golf Course off Plymouth Road.
At the time of his disappearance, police said he had never been reported missing before. They re-issued an appeal in December, asking those from the Polish community to come forward if they had any information.
A section of the woods was cordoned off while his body was removed and a forensic examination carried out.
There are no suspicious circumstances and the death is currently being treated as unexplained.
Formal identification was confirmed later that day and Mr Lubak's next of kin have been informed. The Worcestershire Coroner Geraint William has been informed and a report will be submitted to him by the police, as well as a post mortem being arranged.

That means it's time to take a look around the house and see what needs to be taken care of before winter sets in. Fall home maintenance projects are all about protecting your home and preserving safety and comfort indoors for the long winter months.
Some are projects that you can take care of yourself, and some you may need to hire a professional to do. Which ones you want to tackle and which ones you want to hire out are up to you. It's always a good idea to have Andy onCall out to identify all the maintenance that could be done: change furnace filter, repair drywall, repair loose doors and windows, clean gutters, put up storm windows, fix leaks, repair tile, winterize sprinklers, etc.
Keeping these projects in an acceptable price range is up to you and the demands of your home. However, you can knock off these a few at a time at a more cost effective rate than doing them each individually. The main thing you are paying for is the peace of mind of having these projects finished and done right.
Here are a few of the more common fall maintenance projects:
Testing your programmable thermostat — or adding one to your home: Each fall you want to make sure that your existing thermostats work correctly. A properly operating programmable thermostat will save you money on your heating bills.
Drain the water heater: Prepare your hot water heater for winter. Sediment buildup on a water heater's bottom can interfere with performance.
Test smoke and carbon monoxide detectors: This biannual maintenance is especially important before you turn on your heating system; get in the habit of using the devices' test buttons to check their function once a month.
Clean the humidifier: Over time, humidifiers can get clogged and stop working, or even worse, send bacteria and mold throughout the house. Fall is the perfect time to make sure that your humidifier is clean and working properly.
Steady all handrails: Make sure all inside and outside handrails are secure, and repair loose railings, posts and spindles.
Refresh your colors: There's nothing like a fresh coat of paint to bring a fresh new feeling to both the interior and exterior of your home. But you want to be able to air out the house to minimize the paint fumes. That's one of the reasons painting is a perfect project in the fall.
Many paint products require the temperature to be between 70 and 90 degrees to dry properly. For the most part you can control the inside temperature, however, if a lot of cold air comes in through the doorways or windows, it could adversely affect the paint job.
Exterior paint products advise painting in temperatures above 40 degrees. Most of the paints in use today are latex or acrylic and are temperature sensitive. Problems arise when the paint freezes, and does not dry properly. So if this is on your list, then fall is the perfect time to tackle this.
Andy onCall can help you to identify other projects that you may need to do as well as taking care of the projects that you do not want to do yourself. Call us today to schedule a walk-through consultation, or to schedule us to work on your fall projects.
Andy onCall provides regularly scheduled maintenance service, call today to find out more!

Models walked down the runway at Diane von Furstenberg's Spring/Summer 2013 collection show wearing Glass, the upcoming headset/eyewear device that Google is developing. The augmented reality-enhanced glasses have many smartphone-like functions; users can take pictures, record video, receive messages and check calendars, among other things.
The bands of each pair were modified to complement the collection's palette of corals, blues, whites and grays. It was the first time Glass had ever appeared on a runway.

Oilers Trade Malcontent Messier To Rangers For 3 Players -- Forecasted Swap Is `About Winning'
The Hartford Courant: AP
NEW YORK - The Edmonton Oilers traded malcontent superstar Mark Messier to the New York Rangers today in exchange for three players, making good on Messier's prediction last month: "I don't think you'll see me in that uniform again."
Messier's contract dispute with the Oilers dates back to last winter, but he said his later trade demands also revolved around the club's inability to win over the past two seasons.
"It's about winning," he said last month.
Along with Messier, the Rangers received future considerations in return for center Bernie Nicholls, right wing Steven Rice and left wing Louie DeBrusk.
The Rangers said Messier, 30, winner of the Hart Trophy as the league's MVP in 1989-1990, would play tomorrow night in Montreal.
NHL signs cable deal
-- The National Hockey League signed a one-year, $5.5 million deal with SportsChannel America yesterday that calls for the network to carry 150 regular-season and 65 Stanley Cup playoff games.
SportsChannel America televised NHL games the past three years, paying the league $17 million a season.
ESPN also had been involved in negotiations with the NHL. But ESPN only wanted 12 Friday night games beginning in January, with exclusive rights to the conference and Stanley Cup finals.
SportsChannel America is available in approximately 14 million television households, while ESPN is available in 60 million.
Canadiens 4, Maple Leafs 3 -- MONTREAL - Montreal captain Guy Carbonneau scored a key third-period goal as the Canadiens opened a milestone season.
The victory followed a half-hour on-ice tribute to more than 40 former Canadiens and Maple Leafs. The NHL's two oldest clubs wore replicas of their uniforms from the inaugural 1917-18 season for the opening of the league's 75th anniversary season.
Carbonneau followed Mike McPhee's rush to the net and flipped the puck over Toronto goaltender Grant Fuhr to break a tie 2:50 into the third period.
Russ Courtnall, Sylvain Turgeon and John LeClair also scored as the Canadiens made it six straight wins in home openers against Toronto since their 9-2 victory in 1917.
Bruins 5, Rangers 3
-- BOSTON - The Boston Bruins opened their season with a surprising flurry of goals, two of them while short-handed, and survived a second period New York rally.
Five players - Bob Sweeney, Ray Bourque, Bob Carpenter, Ken Hodge and Vladimir Ruzicka - took up the scoring slack caused by the absence of Cam Neely, expected to be sidelined through December with a thigh injury.
Red Wings 3, Blackhawks 3 -- CHICAGO - Michel Goulet scored twice and Jimmy Waite, playing for the unsigned Ed Belfour, stopped 25 shots as Chicago battled Detroit to a tie.
Goulet's 488th and 489th career goals in the first period rallied Chicago from a 2-0 deficit.
-- Former NHL scoring champion Mario Lemieux is troubled again by back spasms, but still expects to play in the Stanley Cup champion Pittsburgh Penguins' season-opener tonight in Buffalo. -- North Stars center Neal Broten, who left to play in Germany when negotiations with his hometown team stalled, dropped his request for a no-trade contract and agreed to terms with Minnesota. -- Washington Capitals left wing Kelly Miller said he would not play in tonight's game against the Philadelphia Flyers because he is dissatisfied with his contract.

Voice of the White House December 6, 2004
TBR News.org ¢ December 4, 2004
Note from TBR News publisher: We are now in the process of having the Voice of the White House published as a book. It will also contain considerable additional material we had deemed as too sensitive or too outrageous to put on the website.
ōIf you want to do a book, thatÆs fine by me but donÆt expect me to show up for a book-signing tour with Borders Books. Men in black suits with little crosses in their coat lapels would show up and shoot me dead while chanting verses from Psalms.
I will send you some really lovely documents you can put into the text but since you donÆt know my name, put down anything you like. How about Russell Bush, the Cousin No One Talks About?
Now, down to more serious matters. First of all, I have written before about the incredible security precautions to be taken here for the Imperial Inauguration in January. I am sending you part of a DHS bulletin that will back this up. I canÆt send you the Secret Service directives because to publish them would result in immediate and furious reactions and probably visits from the flat of feet and pointy of head.
There will be more security in and around DC than Hitler ever had at one of his rallies. Everything but the Nazi flags and goose-stepping SS men. There will be Coast Guard watches over all waterways around Washington, Air Force units on instant readiness (unlike the very odd and highly suspicious total lack of concern on September 11ģin spite of many important warnings of an attack) with antiaircraft missile units in place all around the Beltway, on the ground and especially on the roofs of buildings around the Capitol and the White House.
On the ground, heavily armed Special Forces units everywhere, waiting inside Federal buildings to emerge and ōdeal severelyö with any organized crowd activity directed against the Head Chimpanzee. And I mean the orders are, and I have seen them, to drag protesters outside the view of the public and especially the cameras and beat the shit out of them.
Bush and his Gestapo have not forgotten the last inauguration wherein people actually had the nerve to hoot and jeer at him and, far worse, to hurl vegetables and other objects at the Imperial limousine. My God, you should have seen our Beloved PresidentÆs face when blunt objects thundered down on his car!
He was as white as a KKK sheet and his mouth was hanging open in shock. Top speed to the White House and he had to have a soothing shot before he wet himself. ģ.
And this is really funny and entirely predictable. The Christian Right is somehow of the opinion that since they, and they alone (with the help of Jesus and Almighty Godģthe Virgin Mary is not in their pantheon) elected Caligula for another term, he owes them big and he is now expected to deliver on his vague promises, made to various Christian Right leaders, in private of course, before the election. This long list is howlingly funny, or would be if it werenÆt serious. Here is a copy of at least some of the more obnoxious items on their wish list that I have culled from all the papers around here:
1. Abolish and criminalize abortion
2. Establish Creationism in all public schools
3. Declare Christmas a ōTrue Christian Holidayö
4. Base American law on the Ten Commandments, not the Secular Constitution
5. Make any kind of homosexual activity a criminal offense
6. Censor any and all media material they deem to be pornographic or offensive
7. Send missionaries to Iraq and other occupied countries to Christianize themģby force
8. Declare a Christian Crusade as quickly as possible with the aim of converting the world.
9. Work with Israel to demolish the Arab mosques and rebuild the Temple of Solomon
10. Declare Sunday as ChristÆs Day and shut all retail businesses down for that day
11. Institute the Tithe in the United States where 10% of the workerÆs checks go to Jesus (them)
12. Ban forever any kind of Satanic Rock and Roll and make it punishable to air or play it
13. Set up a Cabinet post as Religious Coordinator
14. Stop the publication of any and all Harry Potter type Satanic books. Abolish Satanic board games
15. Immediately quarantine any and all AIDS victims as drug abusers and rampant queers
16. Abolish all secular media programs on Sunday and Christmas and replace with religious ones
17. Require heavy prison sentences for any and all drug abuse.
18. Reestablish old sedition laws to prevent displays of anti-Government sentiment anywhere
Now it should be obvious that Bush cannot even discuss any of this in public or he would be impeached or much worse. He knows it, Karl ōChubsö Rove knows it and so does every one else here in the Monkey Palace not on Prozac. The catch of this is that if Bush does not conform to the Celestial Party Line, these chinless geeks will turn on him with a vengeance. They are very good haters, (they hate everyone but themselves) and very soon George will have to either cater to them (which he cannot do and is absolutely impossible) or he will be Evangelical toast. Poor Curious George.
He will have the increasingly vicious war in Iraq (which is now descending into Nazi-like outright war crimes) on one side and the rabid, screeching Jesus Freaks on the other. I donÆt think the next four years will be healing ones for anyone and George will be well-done on the rotisserie of the Fires of Hell.
Unfortunately, the rest of us will have to cook too because George is going to take us all down with him. If God were indeed All Seeing and All Merciful, He would take George to His bosom with diligence and dispatch.ö

MARICOPA - A man who robbed a Circle K store back in May was arrested on Friday after an alert employee recognized him when he re-entered the same store.
Maricopa Police spokesman Ricardo Alvarado said the employee immediately called 911 upon seeing Yoan Luna, 20, enter the store on John Wayne Parkway.
Luna was arrested for unrelated failure to appear warrants, however he was already an investigative lead in the May 20 robbery, according to police.
Luna admitted to the robbery during questioning with detectives, providing detailed information and stating he was under the influence of meth at the time.
He was booked into the Pinal County Sheriff's Detention Center.

I purchased an outdoor setting and bee house from Greenfingers, and the quality of both items exceeded expectations. Shipping took a bit longer than expected, but aside from that, the service was excellent. I'll definitely buy from them again.
Bought 2 acacia folding tables to go at each end of my Lutyens bench (also purchased from Greenfingers). I am very pleased with the quality. they look good and are exactly what I wanted.
They were very well packed, and delivered as promised. I have purchased a number of items over the last few years and have found them to be very helpful, and this is why I have continued to buy from them.
excellent customer service when things are not right. Would recommend to anyone and good prices too. Have bought a few things from Greenfingers and will use this company again.
I ordered a water butt from this company a month ago. Everything in my order was in stock apart from one item but I added it anyway since the website implied that it would be sent to me when it came back into stock.
Little did I know that they would hold the order for 3 weeks just for that one item - and no one bothered to inform or update me. I had to call to find out that it was being held. They gave me a date of 27th April for the part to come in, May comes and still no word. I call again to discover that the order had been sent to the warehouse for picking. 8th May I finally, finally get a despatch note but no tracking number, expected delivery date - just that it had been sent by "nightfreight". So I wait indoors for 2 days and it does not arrive. I have just found out that nightfreight is a 3 day delivery.
Whilst I appreciate that I could have done things a little differently as a customer (calling more often, not ordering stuff that isn't in stock), I do think that a good business will do better in terms of communicating with its customers. It isn't much to ask to add a little note to your confirmation emails to say that once despatched, it will take 3 days - especially if they KNOW that. It isn't much to call or email your customers to say that there is a delay. Waiting a month for a water butt when we've had the rainiest April ever (and today is sunny when the water butt is due) is a lot to ask. I will never order from this company again or recommend it to anyone. Particularly since I wrote them an email to explain why I was unhappy and no one even bothered to reply.
I don't know what I'll receive, assuming I receive it. We'll see.
I recently orderd a ceramic garden fountain.It arrived within a few days,beautifully packaged and excellent value.I particularly wanted a solar fountain that would also function in cloudy weather,It was exactly what I wanted and works very well indeed. I may well be tempted to order a second one for the front garden! Thank you Greenfingers, I can thoroughly recommend this product and your company to family and friends.
I ordered a potting bench + 2 growing sacks on 2 April. The site claims the delivery is 10-14 days. I chased this order twice, each time being told they were expecting to send out as soon as possible. I eventually received the order today, one month after my order date. Several points about this:
* Once the order is placed, the small print says 28 days delivery, so why give the impression it's 10 to 14 days: it's misleading.
* They took my money straight away. That's fine for a company like Amazon who usually deliver within 24 hours. (In fact I've ordered over the 'net with companies who delivered within hours.) Greenfingers have sat on my money for a month - and I'm not happy about that.
*Looking through the reviews I'm not the only one who has endured this. It's totally unacceptable, Greenfingers.
* I was not kept informed of progress (lack of) but had to do all the chasing myself.
As if that wasn't enough .....
The package arrived today. Upon opening it, I find that although the packer has ticked the pick list as all complete, it isn't. I've received only one grow sack, not the two ordered. And just to make my day complete, the screws which hold the potting bench table together have been put in in such a way that they've torn through the wood, and the bits of wood are just dangling together. Whoever put my order together clearly didn't give a damn.
I'll be phoning Greenfingers tomorrow for them to collect this heap of junk and if I don't get good service I'll be posting here again.
I recently ordered a Slim Jim water butt and stand from Greenfingers.com. Due to the current surge in demand for these items I was pleased to find a retailer with items in stock. Or rather, I foolishly believed the website which claimed they were in stock. My subsequent experience leads me to suspect this was not actually the case.
Greenfingers.com would have you believe that most items are delivered within 14 working days and that all items are guaranteed to be delivered within 28 days. Well, don't believe it because it's not true. Instead, they take your money straight away and then fail to deliver within their own 'guarantee' time frame. Calls to the customer service number simply result in a stock answer of, "We hope to deliver it later this week!". Hmmm...
Greenfingers.com continue to claim that the item is in stock and that they simply have a backlog of orders. I'm sorry but no matter how busy they may be, it does not take a month to put an item in the post!
Don't waste your time and money on this company.
have bought many items from Greenfingers - from plants to garden furniture and a chimenea. Have always found the service excellent - packages delivered on time, adequately packaged and contents of high quality. Have recommended this site to friends and family.
Table was very good quailty, arrived packaged securely. Just one nut missing. Contacted Customers Services and they promptly came back to me with a solution. Very happy with the service and the product.
BE VERY CAREFUL ordering from this company. They take your money immediately, do not send goods, request that you visit the Post office to look for this non existent parcel, then promise a refund which is not forthcoming. Very similar comments on other review sites, proceed with caution. Jacky W
MaxC found this review useful
Company communication - zero.
I had been looking for a cheapish decent wooden 6 seater garden table and chair set that would last for a couple of years before investing in a more expensive one that would last for 10-15 years. I did a search on Goggle and found a lot of rather expensive garden furniture companies. I do realise that different woods do cost completely different amounts of money. I had particularly liked the Portland set on the Greenfingers website as it looked solid, hard wearing, well made, excellent value and of a good quality.
Still a bit unsure whether to buy this set as I could get cheaper sets elsewhere. I read reviews on Greenfingers. All they had were good reviews saying that their order had been delivered within days of ordering and were really great value. My mind was made up so I placed my order. On their website it stated that delivery was up to 10 days. As I placed my order after business hours this would be dealt with the following day.
After a few days I went online to check for any status updates and could not find any order tracking so I emailed them hoping to hear some good news and I would one of the 47% that get delivery within 5 days of ordering. I got a response almost immediately, which I thought was great. However I was none the wiser as my reply stated that a delivery date could not be given at that time. I asked a few other questions about whether they used their own van or courier company, which was not answered. I also asked if I could have express delivery. I was told that was not possible on my order as it was at their off-site warehouse.
After a few more days I emailed again and explained that I needed the furniture in time for Easter. I asked if it would definitely be delivered or I would cancel my order. I had been planing to have gone out at the weekend and bought something from Argos. It was in stock and all I needed to do was collect it from the store. I did not really want to do this as it would have meant borrowing a trailer from my in-laws, but would not have had much choice. She assured me that it would be delivered before Easter and she would mark it as urgent.
After the weekend I telephoned Greenfingers. It took me a just under an hour to get through and then I was placed into a 4 person queue. Once I got through I was put on hold while they checked what was happening. I was told that they were doing their best and it should be dispatched later on for delivery Tuesday. I then cancelled my plans for Tuesday with friends. We had planned on taking our children to the local farm and soft play centre. My daughter was disappointed but I thought that we could go on Wednesday or Thursday afternoon instead.
Tuesday around midday I called Greenfingers to see if I could find out delivery info like where on the list I was or a courier tracking number. I was then told that my order had not gone out but would be dispatched later on that day with City Link. I could not find a pen so I could not write down the tracking number. I asked if this could be emailed to me and she said yes. However the email never arrived.
I changed my plans for Wednesday so that I could be at home all day to wait for the delivery. Wednesday morning I checked my emails but nothing so I called Greenfingers again. These phone calls are costing a fortune. My order was still not dispatched!!!! I took the courier number as I wanted to be able to check on Thursday without having to phone anywhere. The phone operator let it slip that my order had been ready since Monday but had a collection date of Wednesday and this was done on Monday. So, why was I told lies about my delivery being on Tuesday and again on Wednesday???! I would rather Greenfingers were honest and I would not have cancelled and changed my plans for 2 days that I need not have. I did try the tracking number after 6pm but it did not work. I kept trying it all evening but still it did not work.
Wednesday evening I got an email at 10pm to let me know my courier number and that my order had been dispatched. I had been given a different tracking number, which could explain why the other one did not work. However the new number did not work either. But it might have just been a case that it had not long been picked up and was not yet on the City Link system.
Thursday morning I checked both courier numbers. Neither worked but thought that I would wait until midday to phone Greenfingers. It is now too late to make alternative arrangements for Easter. I have 16 people for dinner on Sunday and we bought the table and chairs so that we would have 2 tables for people to sit on. I did not want to spend more money on calls and sitting in a queue.
Midday came and still neither numbers appear to exist. I phoned Greenfingers again and was told that the emailed tracking number is the right one but might not be on the City Link system as they are a bit behind, but assured that it will be delivered today. Is this more fobbing off? Am I about to waste another day waiting in for a delivery that will not turn up. It is a 6 and a half hour drive to West Lothian to here, unless City Link have started my orders journey without scanning it in my order will not arrive today! City Link do use planes, so maybe it might arrive.
At around 3pm I checked the tracking number again. It was still not coming up. I decided to phone them. They said that they were not having any problems and it would be on the system. They took my details including my address and said that they have nothing on their system. I have worked for a company and have used City Link as a business customer so I do believe them over a company that has been lying to me all week.
I phoned Greenfingers once more. This time I got straight through. She told me that my order was picked up yesterday but it is on a up to 4 day delivery!!!!! I was fuming. Why have I been promised next day delivery all week?! Apparently they do not do next day delivery on all items. I have an email dated the 27th March stating that I will have delivery before Easter. Why was I told earlier on today that my delivery will be here TODAY!!!!! I am so angry that I feel like crying. They have lied to me all week, why could they not be honest? I have cancelled my entire week for nothing.
I now believe that the reviews on their website might be monitored that bad reviews do not get put onto the website.
I am cannot comment on the actual quality of the furniture as it is not here yet and I am so close to refusing my order. I have also noticed that the percent of people that have had their orders delivered within 5 days has dropped to 32%.
If you need a reliable, honest and trustworthy company then do not use this company. Especially if you are in a hurry!
I have ordered a few things from Greenfingers and goods always come quickly, are packaged well and are excellent quality.
prices are fair and I'll definately shop there again
Excellent company - kept informed every step of the way.
Ordered Tuscany Sun lounger - looks good, but due to our english weather cant try it out yet !
Butterfly solar light - was for a present, much appreiciated.
Solar marker lights- only 4 out of 6 worked - reported this and a week later (this morning) have received a new pack, havn't yet tested.
Wind chime solar light - still awaiting delivery
Many thanks,
Mollie Thorp
The product was worth every penny - especially when compared to similar products on the market. The greenhouse is spacious - the shelves are a real bonus. The frame is sturdy considering the price and the instructions for assembly couldn't have been clearer. If you're looking for a small walk-in greenhouse - don't waste time looking anywhere else. This does the business!
My item arrived little late than expected and was damaged. This was rectified ASAP by a helpful customer service staff.
The item was easy to assemble, it is a charcoal bbq drum! looking forward to use it on a nice day! thank you
Was so impressed with the quality and value of my first order I now turn to Greenfingers for all my gardening needs.
With such a wide range at low prices Greenfingers cannot be faulted. Their web site is easy to navigate and I highly recommend that all customers/prospective customers sign up for the newsletter. This is always full of bargains and contains details ot their monthly sale where you can pick up a bargain at an even lower price.
Delivery cannot be faulted and to date every item I have ordered has been well packed.
This company's products are varied and such good value. I order and receive my delivery within days and I would really recommend you choose your next gardening requirements from them. What could be easier?
Wonderful!! Ordered some for myself and my 2 sisters and we are are all thrilled-Roll on summer!!! Arrived promptly and well packaged. Tempted to buy more!!
Arrived quicker than expected and some boxes had more root plants in than ordered so a real bargain.
All plants looked healthy, and are in greenhouse in separate pots ready to go, with shoots stating to sprout.
Arrived as promised - fast! Left it for few days, then proceeded to fix it to wire mesh fence. Easy to affix, looks great and does the job I want it to do - provide some privacy!
Excellent and cost effective purchase! Very pleased.
this is the second time I have used Greenfingers and will definitely use them again, goods are in perfect condition and 1/2 price compared with other suppliers. Delivery was quick with no problems. Thanks Greenfingers I'll be back to shop with you again.
When I ordered this set I was not expecting Rolls Royce style quality as this was just something for the next couple of years till I have upgraded the garden, but to my delight this set is not only comfortable to sit on but the build quality may mean that I will be able to pass this on to family when I do upgrade. Simple build for the table only took me 5 minutes, the delivry was pretty quick arriving on the third working day after ordering. Brilliant Greenfingers thank you very much.
hi loved all the items i bought slight mishap with my free lights as they woulnt add to basket but when i contacted them by email they were so nice and helpful and sorted and posted them straight away there items are of a very high quality and very well made they look lovely in my garden and the topiary balls and large pots i bought look amazing and real so thankyou green fingers for your quick delivery and helpful staff am on now picking ones for the front garden ....
Having bought two fabulous metal tree seats - not the easiest thing to assemble for flatpack incompetents like me, but well worth the effort - I have just bought a beautiful metal tulip bench, which is every bit as good and incredible value. It is made of good quality material, yet is still light enough to move with ease. I have been highly impressed with all the metal seats I have bought from Greenfingers and have no hesitation in recommending them unreservedly. I was also impressed by the way I could track the parcel, so I had an approximate time for when it would arrive. I shall certainly continue to use this company.
The item arrived quickly. Customer services were excellent; polite and more than helpful. This is my 3rd transaction with greenfingers and each time it has been painless!
Ordered the Ellister deluxe rotating hanging parasol and cover in the sale on the 28th of January, delivered on the 1st of february....
This is a big item. Took it from box and asssembled it in order to make sure everything was there. assembled easily within ten minutes no extra tools
Delighted with it, more like a gazebo than a parasol when up and open, but it breaks into two parts easily for storage. It is now in my garage ready for a long hot summer... Thank you for an excellent service,will use again..
High quality products and fast delivery make this an excellent supplier to purchase from. I placed an order on Tuesday evening and received delivery three days later on Friday - what makes this particularly impressive is that I selected their free delivery option (having spent over £30)!
The wicker vegetable planters I ordered appear sturdily built and I expect to get many years use out of them. I will definitely be back here in the future.
Very disappointing delivery service, ordered 2 items in November, delivery driver left no note to say he had been, Greenfingers emailed and I gave a works address for delivery, still nothing had arrived by Christmas so left another message and was told would be delivered the Friday after Christmas, still nothing came, phoned again on return to work in January and was told would be redelivered, eventually 1 item arrived mid January so had to phone again for 2nd part of order, was told this would be dispatched again as it had been forgotten, 1 week later still hadn't arrived so phoned again and then it arrived a few days after with no apology. All I can say is if you are ordering for Christmas or birthday's don't bother.
My wife and I are are very pleased with the excellent first class service,we recieved from this company.Nothing was a problem,even when they had to change my address on the parcel already in the warehouse ready to be collected for delivery,I would Highly Recommend this company and will definately use them again,
Many Thanks

Very pleased with how my order was handled - there was a double payment taken from my account in error and it was refunded with no trouble. The terracotta garden clock and thermometer wasn't working properly but again, exchanged with no issues. The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is because of the fault with the original product - replacement seems to work fine. I suspect the double payment was a website fault.
received my rush fencing n good order on 17/1/12 this was within eight days of order very pleased and would certainly use again and recommend to my frnds thnkas and best regards ken
I mainly buy wild bird and animal feed from Greenfingers, their products and prices are great, their delivery and customer service second to none.
Had a problem regarding damage to my items however very curtisously GREENFINGERS dispatched an immediate replacement cannot lavish enough praise on this company
Would recommend this company. Easy to order, delivery is quick and any problems you have with your purchases are sorted quickly and very efficiently. I only wish they sold more choices of products and I could shop at this one place only.
The goods were excellent value for money and delivered on schedule. Thank you
I ordered one of these and it arrived in two days. I was so pleased with it that I ordered a second one immeditely. Service was excellent, delivery quick and the company was a pleasure to deal with. This will be my first stop for all gardening needs!
Really pleased with this product and the prompt delivery of such a large item so near to Christmas.
I'd highly recommend both and will certainly use them again in future.

Gina Thompson
Gina Thompson
Comparable to Missy "Misdemeanor" Elliott, Faith Evans, and the late Aaliyah, Gina Thompson is among the hip-hop-drenched urban contemporary female vocalists who emerged in the '90s. Thompson grew up in Vineland, NJ, where she began singing as a child. She kept singing as a teenager, and by the time she graduated from high school, Thompson had become the first black homecoming queen in the history of her high school. In 1995, Thompson signed with Mercury/PolyGram, which released her debut album, Nobody Does It Better, the following year. The album's producers included Stevie J. (not to be confused with Stevie V or Stevie B) and Bad Boy Entertainment leader Sean "Puffy" Combs, aka Puff Daddy, who had become one of the most famous (and controversial) producers in both rap and urban contemporary. One of the songs that Puff Daddy produced for Thompson's first album was "The Things That You Do," which featured Elliott and gave the Virginia singer/rapper some valuable exposure. In 1996, Elliott had yet to become a superstar vocalist; she was still a behind-the-scenes songwriter/producer and was best known for working with Aaliyah and producer Timbaland. "The Things That You Do" was a major step forward for Elliott the vocalist (as opposed to Elliott the songwriter/producer), and thanks to Thompson's single, more people started to think of Elliott as a vocalist and not just a behind-the-scenes person. "The Things You Do" helped pave the way for the tremendous acceptance of Elliott's debut solo album, Supa Dupa Fly, which Elektra released in 1997. Thompson didn't write "The Things That You Do," although she co-wrote three of the other songs on Nobody Does It Better: "Freak On," "Without You," and "Strung Out." Nobody Does It Better turned out to be Thompson's only album for Mercury/PolyGram; a few years later, Thompson's association with Elliott led to a deal with Elektra. In 1999, Elektra released Thompson's second album, If You Only Knew. The album's guests included Elliott as well as Los Angeles singer Montell Jordan (best known for his 1995 smash "This Is How We Do It"), DJ Jazzy Jeff (as in DJ Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince), and Philadelphia rapper Beanie Sigel. ~ Alex Henderson, Rovi

The Bureau of Safety & Environmental Enforcement (BSEE) will host a public forum on offshore energy infrastructure hurricane preparedness and response on Thursday, June 27, 2013, as part of its efforts to improve the safety of offshore oil and gas operations.
"In our continuing efforts to be fully prepared for hurricane season, we are bringing together representatives from the government, oil and gas industry and environmental community to discuss our actions to protect offshore energy infrastructure and the environment during a hurricane in the Gulf of Mexico," said BSEE Director James Watson. "We will have an important discussion about what we are all doing to prepare for and respond to such storms to ensure minimal impact to the supply of energy from offshore areas." In the aftermath of the 2005 hurricane season, platforms toppled and pipelines were ripped from the seafloor. The severe damage to offshore infrastructure and refineries along the coast ultimately halted offshore oil and gas production in the Gulf of Mexico for a prolonged period of time. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is now predicting an active 2013 hurricane season and the BSEE Offshore Energy Hurricane Preparedness and Response Forum will examine how the government, oil and gas industry and environmental community will work to minimize the impact to offshore infrastructure and the environment. Representatives from the following organizations have been invited to participate: • Department of the Interior • BSEE • Department of Energy • Environmental Protection Agency • Federal Emergency Management Agency • NOAA • Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration • U.S. Coast Guard • U.S. Geological Survey • Alabama • Florida • Louisiana • Mississippi • Texas • American Petroleum Institute • PEW The forum will be held on Thursday, June 27, 2013 at the South Interior Building, located at 1900 Constitution Ave., Washington, D.C., 20245, and last from 9:00 a.m. until 12:30 p.m.The public is invited to attend, but should arrive early as seating is limited.
The forum will also be webcast live and can be viewed at www.bsee.gov/hurricane.

As most of you know, Tim Cook participated in a public interview at AlThingsD's D11 conference. Along with the site's Kara Swisher and Walt Mossberg, the Apple CEO talked about a number of interesting topics.
So like always for your viewing pleasure we have got the video for you.
Tim Cook made sure not to reveal any new products, but he does talk more in-depth than you'd think he would about some really interesting topics, and even makes a major announcement regarding Apple's plans to make iOS more open.
Let us know what you think about Tim Cook's D11 interview in the comment section below.

Congratulations to the Men's and Women's Swimmng Teams! Both teams had incredible performances. I could not be happier for the young men, women, coach, and parents. Many more Kudos are on the way. These two teams are proof positive that success is determined by skill...not luck. Congratulations once more.
Here's a peek at amendments and referendums that will be appearing on the November 7 ballot. The entire sample ballot can be found at http://www.bcgov.net/VoterReg/
Does anybody else find it curious that we aren't hearing any of these issues being discussed?
Taken from the Registrar of Voters web-site:
Statewide Constitutional Amendments
I am torn by my love for God and want to find a place of worship where I am not considered a second class citizen.
First church was fine until the pastor discussed issues of abortion, homosexuality, and adultery. So it was time to bail from that church.
Next I ventured to the island, where I was learning so much about God, his unconditional love, the power of prayer, it was a great congregation.
Yep, that's the new $1 billion slogan for the U.S. Army. "Army Strong." English language not matter. Talking tough important. Hulk smash!
I love the Army. I admire soldiers for what they do. I support them in all ways. But who, exactly would join the Army because of "Army Strong"? I'll grant that "Army of One" was a laugher, but "Army Strong" is just ridiculous.
And for $1 billion - $1 BILLION! - I could have come up with something just a tad better, I'm betting.
Has anyone but me ever had a church put a "No parking or your vehicle will be towed" note on the windshield of your car on a day other than Sunday? Today we parked for about 15 minutes in the Low Country Presbyterian Church lot in order to visit my dad at Carolina House. We had not be able to stop on our way east on 278 earlier (and use C.H.'s parking lot) and thought since there were no services going on there would be no problem. Guess what - they don't want anyone parking near that spot. What a welcoming attitude for a church. I was just surprised by the attitude.
Phooey on political correctness. I still like old Chris, and I'm happy he discovered America and opened it to Western civilization, which is supreme in the world in all aspects.
Sure, ol' Leif really was the first European to "discover" America, but he didn't stay very long and couldn't write very well. Chris Columbus still deserves the credit.
Keep in mind, this was in 1492. No period in time - none - looks like anything but evil mishmash when viewed through today's rose-colored, 20/20 glasses.
Christopher Columbus was a hero and still should be.
It's there. It is not subtle anymore. Yet we still continue to read about it between the lines and hear about it indirectly in almost every venue of news today. The American people are more than discontented with the status quo of partisan politics - they're fed up with them.
But how widespread is it really? How big of a sign of disgust is it?
I want to float a theoretical balloon here. I've been thinking about this for awhile. Are you a fatalist or a realist? Do you think all life is worth saving - or not? What would you do if:
1) Your best friend confided in you that s/he has cancer - and refuses to take the treatment. It would require months of chemo, sickness, and expense, with no guarantee that s/he would live, and s/he has no insurance to cover it.

We are pleased to announce that Delphi Trio has joined the roster of Ariel Artists! Based in Boston, Ariel has a wonderfully fresh approach to the classical scene. We are looking forward to all the exciting things soon to come from this collaboration.
Check out our artist profile on their website!
Here we are, on the home stretch into our very exciting 2013 summer season. What a busy and wonderful year it's been! We can't thank you, our supporters, enough for your help in the success we've enjoyed so far and continue to follow. Every step we take is bringing us to even more interesting places than we've been before – artistically, emotionally, and physically too! We absolutely could not do it without you.
We are so excited to get started on the summer – many great things are coming up in the next couple months, and fun adventures are just waiting to be had. The short list:
All in all, a very exciting and packed few months ahead. We hope that you can join us for some of these events, either in person, or listening online where possible!
A big thank you to Eugene Sor at The Crowden School for hosting us on their Sundays @ 4 series yesterday. We had a wonderful time!
For anyone who isn't familiar with Crowden, it is one of the most amazing institutions in the Bay Area. As a charter school for grades 4-8, the school not only has a rigorous academic curriculum but also incorporates two hours of music education into the classroom every day – technique class, chamber music, etc. We came in earlier in the week to play and talk to the students, and it is incredibly inspiring to see young people, especially at such a difficult and impressionable age, so aware of and open to their creative voices.
We will be back at Crowden this summer to teach and play. Jeff and Liana will be on faculty for the Youth Chamber Music Workshop in July, and then the whole trio will be teaching at the Adult Chamber Music Workshop a week later. We're very proud to be part of the Crowden School's extended family, and are looking forward to returning!
We could not be more thrilled to appear as soloists with the San Jose Chamber Orchestra and maestro George Cleve this Sunday April 7 at 7 P.M. The program features works of German/Austrian composers including a work by Ernst Bacon with clarinetist Michael Corner and a divertimento by Mozart.
The Beethoven Triple Concerto op.56 is a special piece, "something really new" according to the composer. Believed to have been written for Beethoven's patron and student Archduke Rudolph, there is no evidence it was ever performed by its original dedicatee. While exact details of the premiere are sketchy, violinist Carl August Seidler and the legendary cellist Antonin Kraft (for whom Haydn wrote his D major Concerto) were both involved in the rehearsal and performance of the work.
This concerto is full of good nature, lyricism and out-and-out virtuosity, particularly for the strings. Beethoven's Triple is chamber music writ large- it will be a joy to play it with SJCO and George Cleve.
What an absolute pleasure to work with this outstanding series in its beautiful and culturally vibrant location. The Historic Asolo Theater could not be more charming, especially since it is actually of 18th century Italian vintage, dismantled and reconstructed in Sarasota. We felt right at home in large part thanks to Lee Dougherty Ross whose warmth and honeyed Georgia accent cannot but put you at ease.
A great quote from Saturday's performance:
"…rich and committed string tone, dazzling pianism, rhythmic flexibility and risky tempi in the inevitable and welcome scherzo and especially when a choral melody suffused the final pages."
Sarasota Herald Tribune
Our last public concert of 2012 approaches! Come join us on Sunday, November 4, before we go into incubation mode for a few months to prepare for everything that's coming up this winter and spring.
Noe Valley Chamber Music features the best of the Bay Area and we are proud to be the Emerging Artists on their 20th anniversary season. The concert will feature works we've been playing around the Bay Area this fall – trios by Haydn, Jalbert, and Dvorak – as well as a work that's new to us, a short single movement trio by Grieg. It's very seldom played and we're very much looking forward to presenting it.
So – the nitty gritty:
Noe Valley Chamber Music presents the Delphi Trio
Sunday, November 4, 2012
3:15 pre-concert chat, 4:00 concert
St. Mark's Lutheran Church
1111 O'Farrell St., San Francisco
The first concert of our series as Artists-in-Residence at Old First Concerts is coming up very soon! We are very excited to start this very special residency program; it's the first that Old First has ever hosted and we are looking forward to our collaboration with them. We chose to center the three-concert series around commissioned works that we will be presenting this season — each of the three concerts will feature a world premiere as part of the program.
Our first concert of the series, on September 23 at 4 pm, will focus around Deltangi-ha (Nostalgies) by Sahba Aminikia. The new work is a set of musical "postcards" from Sahba's childhood memories growing up in Iran during the Iran-Iraq War — it is a powerfully communicative piece of art and we can't express enough how honored we are to have the privilege of bringing it to an audience for the first time.
Please come join us!
The Delphi Trio, Old First Concerts Artists-in-Residence
Pre-concert talk at 3:30 pm with Delphi and composer Sahba Aminikia
Concert begins at 4 pm
Old First Presbyterian Church
1751 Sacramento St. (at Van Ness), San Francisco
For tickets, call (415) 474-1608 or visit the Old First Concerts website.
We're here in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, as ensemble-in-residence at the Dakota Sky International Piano Festival and have some fun news to share! First up is the live streaming broadcast of our concert tomorrow evening as part of Dakota Sky. The concert goes live at 7:30pm Central Time, but you can watch it any time later, too, as it will be archived and posted online. Click here to watch!
The other big piece of news is our concert happening next Thursday, August 9, in Chicago. We received a great shout out today in the Chicago Tribune from John von Rhein's classical picks! The program will include Haydn, Dvorak, and Schubert's Trout Quintet, featuring the talents of our dear collaborators Becca Wilcox and Jonathan Cegys. Generously presented by the Norris Cultural Arts Center, the concert will be at Ganz Hall, Roosevelt University (430 South Michigan Ave.) at 7:30pm. Tickets are $28, or $22 for students. To order, please click here or call 630-584-7200.
With the 2011-12 season coming to a close, we're already gearing up for next season's excitement. We have so many things to share with our lovely audiences this year, and we can't wait to let you in on the fun!
The summer has us teaching at the Crowden Music Center's adult chamber music workshop from July 21-25. Then we are hopping in the car and taking a road trip out to Sioux Falls, South Dakota, for our second year as ensemble in residence at the Dakota Sky International Piano Festival. We will be teaching all week and then closing out the festival with our concert on August 4 — there's no better way to end a summer than with some trios by Haydn and Dvorak, and then a collaboration with our friends in Sioux Falls on Schubert's Trout Quintet.
In the fall, we are starting a residency on the Old First Concerts series. Our first concert will be September 23, and will be kicking off the premieres of the commissioning project we've been working so hard on through this past winter and spring. We will be sharing much more information about this as the time gets nearer!
Many more wonderful things are happening through the season, including performances on the Noe Valley Chamber Music series, an appearance on the Artist Series in Sarasota, Florida, and a performance of Beethoven's Triple Concerto with the San Jose Chamber Orchestra. We'll be sure to keep you updated — the Concerts section of our website will have all of the info you need to come out and join us for some great music!

If you want eat a tradicional catalan meal visit this restaurant!

Welcoming atmosphere, friendly staff, and great food. This is a great place for getting to know traditional Catalan dishes and to simply have a good meal.
I have to admit I had really looked forward to sampling what Origen 99'9 had to offer, the chain is based on the concept that 99.9% of their produce is sourced in Cataluna; and the menu is full of classic Catalan dishes. Sadly Origen promised so much that the reality is somewhat disapointing. Dry bread, old and tired garlic that... More
Prefab crap! The prices are not bad, so the value is quite ok as well. But as a picky eater that likes his traditional Catalan food all the Origen 99,9% restaurants aren't for me. All the meals are prefab and just heated (sometimes nuked) in the microwave oven.
Thought it was a bit over-priced for basic food. It could be a neat concept for the tourist who wants to learn a little about this type of local food.

A rabid group of Taylor Swift fans who call themselves "The Swifties" convinced Abercrombie & Fitch to stop selling that T-shirt, because it mocked
The Swifties launched an online petition asking Abercrombie & Fitch to, quote, "Take it Away . . . Because it's hurtful to Taylor Swift and Swifties everywhere!"
Abercrombie didn't want to mess with the mighty power of the Swifties. According to reports, they pulled the shirt from its collection after only 95 people had signed it. As of last night, it was up to 117 signatures.
Here's another reason they probably caved. Fans started calling the public relations phone line to whine about the shirt.
The company had to change the greeting to, quote, "Thank you for calling Abercrombie & Fitch public relations. If you are calling regarding the Taylor Swift T-shirt, please note this is no longer available."
Abercrombie even kissed-up to Taylor's fans by putting out this Tweet, "Hey #Swifties, we no longer sell the T-shirt. We (love) Taylor's music and think she's awesome!"

Except for the Karachi tramways where wages have been revised as a result of adjudication, awards, etc., basic wages in Bombay, Madras and Calcutta, excepting those of the low-grade workers in the last centre, have remained unaltered since the outbreak of the War. Bus services, on the other hand, have given increases in basic wages. So far as Tramways are concerned, the basic wages per day of drivers of the first grade are Rs. 1-9-3 in Karachi, Rs. 1-9-10 in Bombay and Rs. 1-7-2 in Madras. Conductors of the first grade get slightly less, their daily basic wages being Rs. 1-5-8, 0-14-2 and Rs. 1-5-6, in Karachi, Bombay and Madras respectively. Inspectors of the first grade get Rs. 1 -11 -1 in Karachi and Rs. 1-13-11 in Bombay. Among the workshop staff, the highest wages are those of fitters in Karachi whose basic wage is Rs. 2-7-8 per day. Dearness allowance is given by all the tramway companies and most of the bus services. The allowance is paid either at a flat rate or on a graded scale. In one case it was linked with the cost of living index number. The net earnings per day of certain categories of workers including dear-ness allowance and overtime pay are as follows:—
Tramway drivers—Rs. 2 in Karachi; Rs. 2-1-0 in Bombay; Rs. 2-1-8 in Madras.
Conductors (1st grade)—Rs. 2-1-4 in Karachi; Rs. 2-1-0 in Bombay;
Rs. 1-15-11 in Madras.
Inspectors—Rs. 2-8-9 in Karachi; and Rs. 3-3-1 in Bombay.
The following table (Table 120) shows the daily basic wages and net earnings of workers in Tramways and buses in selected centres:—
Average Daily Basic Wages and Earnings in Trams and Buses*
In all tramways, overtime is compulsory in cases of emergency. Except in Calcutta where overtime is paid at the rate of 1 1/4 times up to two hours and at 1 1/2 times from two to four hours, in the other centres it is paid according to the provisions of the Factories Act. In the case of Bus services overtime is rarely worked. Fines are imposed by tram companies for cheating, wrong punching of tickets, insolence, absence without permission, neglect of duty and failure to comply with traffic regulations. Deductions are also made for shortage of cash in conductors collections, advance on loans, loss or damage to employers' property, etc. The fines imposed are in accordance with the provision of the Payment of Wages Act. Fining is rarely to be found in bus services. With the exception of casual labour in Karachi tramways, wages are generally disbursed monthly, up to the 10th of the succeeding month at the latest.
