VAT is a tax chargeable on taxable supplies made in the UK by taxable persons. Credit is given for tax paid to other businesses and the net balance is payable or reclaimable - normally on a quarterly basis.
Taxable persons
A taxable person is any person carrying on a business which is, or is required to be registered for VAT and includes the following:
VAT law covers all types of supply of goods or services (outputs), whether of a revenue or capital nature. Supplies include sale, hire, or loan of goods. Outputs normally fall into four categories:
- Positive rated - taxable at applicable VAT rates
- Zero rated - including socially or economically important items, e.g. exports, many food items (but not catering), books, newspapers, public transport, drugs on prescription, children's clothing
- Exempt supplies - including necessities such as insurance, postage, finance, education, and health
- Some receipts are outside the scope of VAT, e.g. donations, dividends, shares of profit compensation for losses, non UK supplies
Should I be registered for VAT?
You should notify HMRC when:
- Taxable turnover for the past 12 months exceeds £85,000
- There are reasonable grounds for believing that your turnover for the next 30 days will exceed £85,000
In the first case, notification must be within thirty days of the end of the relevant month. In the latter case, notification must be within thirty days of the date on which grounds first existed.
It is important to monitor turnover because there is a penalty for late registration. This is in addition to the tax payable for the period when VAT should have been charged.
Can I register for VAT if my taxable turnover does not exceed the prescribed limits?
It is possible to register voluntarily provided you have a bona fide business.
It is possible to register for VAT online
HMRC advises the time it takes to issue a VAT registration number which will, for the majority of submissions received using the online service, take three working days.
A one-off payment
Where a one-off business transaction takes place that is in excess of the VAT registration threshold that relates to an economic activity (a key phrase in EU law) the transaction requires VAT registration and accountability for VAT.
Cash accounting scheme
There is a special scheme applicable to businesses where taxable turnover is expected to be not more than £1,350,000 in the next 12 months (cash accounting).
This allows the trader to account for VAT on the basis of payments received and made rather than on tax invoices issued and received.
It may be advantageous to use cash accounting from the date of registration, although some businesses will not benefit from this scheme, particularly if they have significant business credit and supply on a cash only basis.
Retail schemes
Special schemes of accounting for VAT are available to retailers. We can advise on the best choice.
Credit for input tax
Input tax paid on purchases can be recovered by registered taxable persons, who are able to offset input tax against their output tax liabilities. Input tax is only recoverable to the extent that it relates to taxable supplies made or to be made by the business. Traders with fully exempt outputs cannot register or reclaim any input tax. Credit is available for all VAT paid on inputs where a VAT invoice is available, except for tax on private expenditure, business entertainment, motor cars, certain building materials, and goods bought under a second-hand goods scheme. Recovery of input tax may be restricted if the business makes both taxable and exempt supplies.
How often will I have to complete a VAT return?
VAT returns must be filed online and must normally be submitted every quarter, along with any payment due to HMRC no later than 7 days after the end of the month following the period end. Blank returns are made available online well before the period end so there is ample time to complete and file them by the due date. Make returns and payments on time because there are penalties for late filing and/ or late payment. It will usually be preferable to register to pay by direct debit as that allows a further three working days for payment, and it reduces the risk that payments are overlooked. Businesses with regular repayments may make monthly returns to ease their cash flow. Those using the Annual Accounting Scheme need make only one return per year, which has to be submitted two months after the end of the scheme year. Payments of VAT under the annual accounting scheme are made monthly by direct debit.
From 2019 all VAT submissions will be made through the new HMRC online system known as Making Tax Digital.
We would be pleased to advise you what records you need to keep to complete the VAT return.
VAT filing
All VAT registered businesses in the UK are required to submit their VAT returns online and also pay any VAT owed electronically.
When can, or must, I deregister?
- You must deregister when taxable supplies are no longer made, e.g. when trading ceases
- You can deregister when anticipated turnover for the next year (measured from any time) is less than £83,000, but this may not be in your interests - seek our advice first
Tax invoices
Specific rules are laid down as to the form and content of tax invoices. These are to ensure that all the necessary information is recorded for the determination of the rate of tax to be applied, the liability of the supplier to account for the output tax due on the supply, and the entitlement of the recipient to reclaim all or any of it as input tax.
You are required to use sequential numbering to identify the numbers you use. You can use both numbers and letters for invoice numbers, and use more than one sequence of numbers, but each must form part of a unique and consecutive series. If you cancel an invoice, you must keep a copy of it to show that you have not broken the numbering sequence.
If you supply goods that are exempt, zero rated or meet reverse charge criteria in the UK to businesses and other member states where a VAT invoice is mandatory for such goods, you will have to indicate on invoices the reason for the exemption, requirement of the customer to pay the VAT.
There is no requirement to issue a tax invoice for a zero-rated or exempt supply. However, it would seem appropriate to issue some form of invoice for either type of supply to establish that VAT is not chargeable on it.
Copies of all tax invoices issued and received must be retained for at least six years unless a shorter period (normally at least three years) is agreed with HMRC.
A tax invoice is required to show:
- An identifying sequential number / letter (see note above)
- The date of the supply and the date of issue of invoice
- The name, address, and registration number of the supplier
- The name and address of the person to whom the goods and services are supplied
- A description that is adequate for the purposes of identifying the goods or services supplied
- For each description the quantity of the goods or the extent or nature of the services, price, the rate of tax, and the amount payable, excluding tax
- The total amount payable excluding tax
- The rate of any cash discount offered
- The total VAT payable
Anyone supplying goods or services direct to the public or to any business that is not registered for VAT does not have to supply a tax invoice unless the customer requires one. Where the tax-inclusive value of supply is not more than £250, the supplier may issue a simplified form of invoice giving only the following details:
- Name, address and registration number of the retailer
- Date of supply
- A description, adequate to identify the goods or services supplied
- The total amount payable including tax
- The rate of tax at the time of the supply

A sea of sunflowers
Bell School Road near Beaver Local is a bright spot on earth right now and has also become a very popular spot for photographs. Clark Birch of Birch Road planted his acreage with the bright blooming crop and will harvest these fields for the bird seeds. As the sun sets, the brightness of sunflowers fades but is quickly replaced by the light of the fireflies that gather at night. Morning Journal/Patti Schaeffer

Math, computer science major wins COTS award
Chelsea Boling, a math and computer science major, won best undergraduate poster award at the Conference of Texas Statisticians, COTS, held at the University of Texas at Dallas on March 21.
"This is a great honor for all of us," said Kumer Das, associate professor of statistics. "Chelsea competed with other undergraduate and graduate students and won the award. It shows us how important it is to have a small student-faculty ratio on campus. We provide ample time to students like Chelsea inside and outside of the classroom."
Named as one of the 2014 grant recipients by the Office of Undergraduate Research, Boling plans to conduct her undergraduate research on the same topic she presented at the conference.
"Dr. Kumer Das, who is my mentor, encouraged me to understand more about nonnegative matrix factorization, which led me to read several articles on latent semantic analysis (LSA)," Boling said. "I have a growing interest in ongoing developing methods of data extraction, which can be used to understand constructive information of high dimensional data.
Especially with LSA and working with biomedical literature, I would like to make refinements on my research based on the shortfalls that I have observed using LSA."
Boling is also an ASCENT scholar, a program where selected math and computer science students are awarded scholarships for up to four semesters at Lamar. During the first summer, students take a class, engage in a research project with mathematics and computer science faculty, and participate in an orientation to the Lamar University campus and community.
"I think this award will be inspirational to all other students in the department," said Das. "For the grant winners, it is very encouraging as well. Chelsea's success increases their confidence level significantly."
For more information regarding the Office of Undergraduate Research grant recipients or the ASCENT program, contact Kumer Das at email@example.com.

And just like that, within a matter of days, the jury has reached a verdict in Apple vs. Samsung. The basic gist is simple: Apple's software patents are valid, and many Samsung devices infringe upon them. Apple's iPhone 3G trade dress is valid, and Samsung's Galaxy S line infringes, but other devices did not. Samsung did not infringe Apple's iPad design patent. Apple did not infringe any of Samsung's patents. Apple is awarded a little over $1 billion in damages. Competition lost today, and developers in the United States should really start to get worried - software patents got validated big time today.

not my experience with their products, but each to his own opinion. It takes courage and risk to make something unique that is not a copy of something else. Its courage and risk that the world deeply lacks. Apple created this clone market by not opening their iphone to other providers and the international market in the beginning. When the clones appeared they changed their strategy, a little late.

DHS holds terror talks with UK Minister, then detains him
Interested in terror, check, politics, check, step over here sir...
The UK's first Muslim Minister has chalked up his second detention at the hands of the US Department of Homeland Security - with exquisite irony, at Dulles Airport in Washington DC on his way back from talks with, er, the DHS on tackling terrorism.
Shahid Malik, who was also recently identified as Britain's most expensive MP, was detained by DHS officials, and he and his hand luggage were searched. He reports that he and two others, both black Muslims, were taken aside for further questioning.
Malik was previously held by staff at JFK in New York, last year while returning from an event where he'd been a keynote speaker on defeating extremism. Then, he claims, he was subjected to an "abusive attitude" from DHS staff.
The DHS' terrorist detection systems do seem to have an unfortunate knack when it comes to impressing relevant British Parliamentarians. Three years ago it contrived to demonstrate the efficacy of no-fly lists, in a negative sort of way, to a delegation from the UK's Transport Committee, headed by chair Gwyneth Dunwoody. As the impressed Dunwoody commented on the regime at the time, "it's a sort of general level of arrogant incompetence." Malik is no doubt similarly onside in the war on terror. ®

There have been a few rumors, a few leaks, and a lot of speculation as to when Samsung would release the Android 4.1 update for the Samsung Galaxy S III. Samsung has disclosed that it will have the update available for the European version of the handset some time in October. Specifics about the rollout were not given, but the assumption is that unlocked devices will be the first to receive the update with carrier branded devices following several weeks later due to time restraints and additional testing.
the Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean) operating system will be available on the Galaxy S3 from October.Samsung
For now, Samsung has not released any information regarding the Jelly Bean update for carrier branded versions of the Samsung Galaxy S III in the US market. In the past, US customers have had to wait an additional 4-6 months from the time the first updates were released in Europe. We're hoping things will be a bit different this time around. A November time frame would be nice, but don't be surprised if Samsung delivers the Android 4.1 update for your Galaxy S III just in time for the holidays.

The Aquarium of Niagara Foundation board of trustees has announced restructuring of its management team. The board has named Gay B. Molnar as executive director, Nancy Chapin as director of conservation and science, Jennifer Humphrey as operations manager, and Gary Siddall as supervisor of marine mammal care.
The new management team is tasked with moving the facility into the future. Over the past year the AON board started the process of seeking American Zoological Association accreditation. AON Board President Rich Torcasio said, "This new team has over 75 years of aquarium experience and is well equipped to move the Aquarium into the future."
The Aquarium of Niagara opened as a privately owned corporation on June 12, 1965. Founded by a small group of chemists and scientists to introduce artificial seawater, The Aquarium of Niagara Falls quickly became a model for the operation of inland aquaria.
In September 1977, the principal owner, Kelvin Smith of Cleveland, established the Sea Research Foundation Inc., a non-profit organization dedicated to education and research. In 1994, Sea Research Foundation Inc. agreed to transfer The Aquarium of Niagara Falls to a new, local foundation. The Niagara Aquarium Foundation was established and incorporated by charter from the Board of Regents of the State University of New York, on Feb. 18, 1994.
The Aquarium of Niagara mission is to broaden the public awareness of aquatic ecosystems through innovative and stimulating exhibits, displays and educational and recreational programs that promote conservation and support research.

Public works: Nashua meeting time must change
February 13. 2013 5:40PM
Nashua's Board of Public Works meetings do not work for the public. One alderman wants to change that. Surprisingly, he has met considerable resistance.
The city's Board of Public Works, which oversees major public works projects, meets at 2 p.m. on select Thursdays. The board settled some disagreement about that meeting time last December when it voted to continue its afternoon gatherings. At least, it settled the disagreement on paper. Alderman at-large James Donchess has not let it go, though, and that is good for the public.
Regarding the meeting schedule, Donchess has pointed out the obvious: holding meetings during weekday work hours reduces public participation. Not only that, it restricts the pool of people available to serve on the board.
"Too many of these positions run uncontested because a large number of people cannot even consider taking time off from their employment on a regular basis," Donchess said. "I just think it would be better for 90 percent of the people or more if the meetings were held in the evening."
To that end, Donchess has proposed a charter revision that would require the board to meet no earlier than 6 p.m.
Local public boards should always hold their regular meetings outside of regular work hours, as most do. That increases dramatically the public's ability to participate. Donchess is on the right side here, and it is disappointing that he has found so little support from other public officials that he has felt the need to turn to the people with a proposed charter amendment. It should not take that to set a reasonable meeting time for a public board.

.I just received an email from the practice manager and she has the story COMPLETELY wrong in so many ways, it's giving me a migraine. So, off to compose a lengthy response...... I should just send her this thread, LOL
Ms M****** –
Thank you for finally contacting me. At this point, this situation has become far more than a mere "inconvenience" about some medication. After reading your email, I realize that you have not been made aware of many things that did and did not happen. The easiest way to clear this up is to give you a time line of what happened:
• Finnegan and I had a wellness exam with Dr M****** on July 8. At that time, she did a gram stain and the gram stain was not finished by the end of our appointment, so Dr M****** said she'd call me at home with the results. I left the office.
• Around 3:30 pm on July 8, Dr M****** left me a message on my home number that Finnegan has megabacteria and that I would need to come in and pick up some medication. I called back and spoke to a receptionist and let her know that I would be in on July 10 to pick up the medication.
• On July 10 I arrived in your office with Finnegan to pick up the meds. I paid for the meds and then a nurse showed me how to administer them to Finn because I am "new" to birds and have never given a bird medications. AT NO TIME did anyone tell me that I was not receiving a complete set of medications, it did not occur to me to check that I had a complete set as I trusted that your office would give me the proper full amount, nor did anyone tell me that I would need to pay for more medications. In answer to your question, I do not know why your staff sent me home with only one bottle of meds and yes, that was a mistake on your staff's part.
• During the evening of July 10, I gave Finn his second dose. At that time, I realized that I did not have enough meds to give him the whole 10-day course. I became concerned that maybe your office had mislabeled the bottle and I inadvertently gave Finn the entire course of medications in one day OR your office simply didn't give me enough medication. I tried to call your office but you were already closed for the day.
• I came back to your office on July 11 around 10am to clear up the medication issue. The receptionist checked the dosage with one of the doctors, told me it was correct, and then C****** made up another partial course of medications because your office didn't have enough on hand. She and I spoke about the fact that it would be my FOURTH trip down from my home for the medications and that maybe your office would ship them once they became available. We left it that I would call on Monday to find out when the meds would be available and I'd decide at that time if they would be shipped or I'd make yet another trip down to pick them up. The receptionist asked me to pay for the meds, I said I already did and showed her the receipt, and she never said that I owed more for the two bottles that C****** had just given me or that I would have to pay for more meds when they became available.
• Monday July 13 around 2:15 in the afternoon, I called your office to find out when the medication would be available. Your receptionist, T******, told me that the medication was sitting there in your office, waiting to be picked up. When I told her that I was just in on Saturday and that the medication WAS NOT available because your office was out-of-stock, she told me that the meds must have come in that morning. I said that I would be in tomorrow (Tuesday the 14th) to pick up the medication. She did not tell me I owed anything more for the medication I hadn't received.
• Monday July 13 around 3:30 in the afternoon, C****** called me to let me know that the medication was on order, would probably arrive Wednesday, and that your office would overnight it to me at a "substantial discount". When I told her I had already spoken to T****** today and T****** said that the medications were already in your office ready for pick up, C****** didn't know what was going on. She put me on hold, spoke to T******, and came back to the phone to let me know that T****** was "confused" because my paperwork was put in the wrong spot and that the medications were definitely not ready. C****** offered again to ship the medications to me overnight at a substantial discount and that became the sticky-wicket. C****** told me the price that I paid was for only ONE vial of medications and that I would owe for the other vials of medications. This is the first I had heard of the additional charges. My receipt shows that I paid $27.45 for Ampho-B Oral Suspension 100 mg. I have not received anywhere close to 100 mg at this point nor had anyone told me until C****** did today that I owed any more money for medications I have received and have yet to receive. It did occur to me that maybe the "100 mg" refers to the strength of the prescription as listed in your computer program, but that doesn't change the fact that no one told me that I owed more money for the rest of the course of medication that I thought I had fully received and fully paid for on July 10.
All this miscommunication has not only aggravated me, but has left me with a very bad impression of your office. Given that I have worked in and around veterinary practices for the past 20 years as a receptionist, as a groomer, as a former Animal Control Officer, and as a pit bull rescuer, I am more than sympathetic to overworked staff at a very busy hospital, but this situation is just ridiculous. All I want is the medication to fix Finnegan.

Grand Island Fire Co.
Following three motor vehicle incidents on Friday, Jan. 25, Grand Island Fire Co. rescue personnel had to contend with two separate accidents on Sunday, Jan. 27.
Shortly after 10:30 a.m. Sunday, Grand Island firefighters/medics responded to a three-car accident at the intersection of Grand Island Boulevard and Whitehaven Road, according to Assistant Fire Chief Chris Soluri.
Donald Sparrow, 68, of Grand Island, Donald Davis, 55, of Lockport, and Nathan Attaro, 25, of Buffalo, were evaluated at the scene, but denied injuries.
At 4 p.m., GIFC rescue personnel responded to a two-car accident at Baseline and Whitehaven roads.
Soluri reported that one driver, Bruce Sims, 81, of Grand Island, denied injuries. The second vehicle contained the Matt Linenfelser family, which included four children, ages 10, 8, 6 and 5. All were evaluated by GIFC medics, and no injuries were reported, because they had been safely restrained by seat belts. All GIFC units returned to service at 4:35 p.m.
Shortly before 1 a.m. on Friday, Grand Island Fire Co. rescue personnel responded to a motor vehicle incident that occurred on Schwegler Road.
Soluri reported that the driver, 22-year-old Jesse Carpenter of Grand Island, left the roadway and travelled between two homes at 83 and 89 Schwegler, striking a gas meter and fence before coming to a stop. He declined treatment at the scene. An investigation was being conducted by the Erie County Sheriff's Office.
Subsequently, at 7:15 a.m., the GIFC responded to another one-car motor vehicle accident on the I-190, southbound, near the Bedell Road overpass. The driver, 37-year-old Michael Redfern of Grand Island, ran off the roadway and was evaluated at the scene but refused treatment/hospitalization.
Finally, at 7:34 a.m., Grand Island Fire Co. rescue personnel responded to a report of a vehicle crashing into a tree in the 2400 block of Stony Point Road. Fire Chief Kevin Koch reported that the 16-year-old driver of Grand Island was evaluated and released to a parent. A 13-year-old passenger was treated by GIFC medics for traumatic injuries and transported to Women and Children's Hospital for further medical attention.
All GIFC units returned to service at 8:04 a.m.

Episode includes streamlined, professional controls that let you have complete control over your media.
Fits your work environment
Equally at home on a laptop, in the field, or working as part of a cluster of dedicated machines, Episode can be reconfigured quickly and easily to meet the needs of the day, or the hour. Episode's unique one-click clustering and file sharing capabilities make 'prep and submit' encoding workflows easy.
Remarkable speed
Unlimited batch processing
Prioritize encoding and add files and settings to the batch while running; create bookmarks to source folders.
Parallel encoding (Pro | Engine)
Episode's multi-threaded encoding engine is capable of utilizing the full power of multi-core workstations. In high volume workflows, Episode Pro and Episode Engine can speed up encoding even more by allowing multiple jobs to be processed in parallel. Episode Pro enables two concurrent jobs; Episode Engine supports an unlimited number of parallel jobs, optimizing the processing power of multi-core machines.
Easy to use interface
Episode's visual workflow builder simplifies the encoding process and helps identify functions being performed and the status of work in progress.

Dehlinger Goldridge Pinot Noir 2009
Winemaker Notes
Critical AcclaimAll Vintages
A standout region for its decidedly Californian take on Burgundian varieties, the Russian River Valley is named for the eponymous river that flows through it. While there are warm pockets of the AVA, it is mostly a cool-climate growing region thanks to breezes and fog from the nearby Pacific Ocean.
Chardonnay and Pinot Noir reign supreme in Russian River, with the best examples demonstrating a unique combination of richness and restraint. The cool weather makes Russian River an ideal AVA for sparkling wine production, utilizing the aforementioned varieties. Zinfandel also performs exceptionally well here. Within the Russian River Valley lie the smaller appellations of Chalk Hill and Green Valley. The former, farther from the ocean, is relatively warm, with a focus on red and white Bordeaux varieties. The latter is the coolest, foggiest parcel of the Russian River Valley and is responsible for outstanding Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.
One of the most difficult yet rewarding grapes to grow, Pinot Noir is commonly referred to by winemakers as the "heartbreak grape." However, the greatest red wines of Burgundy prove that it is unquestionably worth the effort. More reflective than most varieties of the land on which it is grown, Pinot Noir prefers a cool climate, requires low yields to achieve high quality, and demands care in the vineyard and lots of attention in the winery. It is an important component of Champagne and the only variety permitted in red Burgundy. Pinot Noir enjoys immense popularity internationally, most notably in Oregon, California, and New Zealand.
In the Glass
Pinot Noir Is all about red fruit—strawberry, raspberry, and cherry. It is relatively pale in color with soft tannins and lively acidity. It ranges in body from very light to the heavier side of medium, typically landing somewhere in the middle—giving it extensive possibilities for food pairing. With age (of which the best examples can handle an astounding amount), it can develop hauntingly beautiful characteristics of fresh earth, autumn leaves, and truffles.
Perfect Pairings
Pinot's healthy acidity cuts through the oiliness of pink-fleshed fish like salmon, ocean trout, and tuna. Its mild mannered tannins don't fight with spicy food, and give it enough structure to pair with all sorts of poultry—chicken, quail, and especially duck. As the namesake wine of Boeuf Bourguignon, it can even match with heavier fare. Pinot Noir is also very vegetarian-friendly—most notably with any dish that features mushrooms.
Sommelier Secret
Pinot Noir is dangerously drinkable, highly addictive, and has a bad habit of emptying the wallet. Look for affordable but still delicious examples from Germany (as Spätburgunder), Italy (as Pinot Nero), Chile, New Zealand, and France's Loire Valley and Alsace regions.

Staff Report
NewsWest 9
WASHINGTON - Barack Obama has been elected President of the United States, the first African-American elevated to the White House.
With victories in Florida, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia and other battleground states, Obama built a commanding lead over his Republican rival, John McCain.
Obama surged in the polls amid a national financial crisis, campaigning as the candidate of change. He and his fellow Democrats sought to link McCain to the unpopular George W. Bush.
The son of a black man from Kenya and a white woman from Kansas, Obama soared into the national spotlight after his electrifying speech at the 2004 Democratic National Convention, when he was making his first run for the Senate.
Emphasizing his early opposition to the Iraq war, he defeated Hillary Rodham Clinton after a long, bruising primary fight. He then beat back Republican efforts to portray him as reckless, naive and inexperienced. He also had to combat Internet misinformation questioning his religion and patriotism.
As he fought to become President, Obama attracted millions of first-time voters - and brought the historic American election to the attention of the entire world.

GOSHEN — Cops in Orange County plan to trade people grocery store gift cards for guns, starting Friday.
GOSHEN — Cops in Orange County plan to trade people grocery store gift cards for guns, starting Friday.
The county's "Save a Life" gun buyback program runs through March 18 with drop-off sites at police stations in the cities of Newburgh, Middletown and Port Jervis as well as the Orange County Sheriff's Office in Goshen. Gun owners can surrender weapons for ShopRite gift cards worth up to $150. Authorities promise amnesty for illegal possession.
A crowd of law enforcement officers and elected officials promoted the program during a news conference Thursday as a way to combat gun violence.
"Any firearm surrendered will be one less weapon that could possibly be encountered by a law enforcement officer," said Orange County Sheriff Carl DuBois.
Critics and social scientists have questioned what, if any, effect exchange programs have on gun violence. Supporters say it's impossible to count shootings that don't happen.
City of Newburgh police Chief Michael Ferrara said his officers deal with increasing gun violence. Newburgh recorded 394 gun calls in 2012, a 20 percent jump from 2011. Ferrara said 23 of the city's 38 homicide victims since 2005 died of gunshots.
"It's a small part of a solution to a very big problem, but it's a good concept that I believe in," he said.
This is the county's third buyback in six years. Authorities collected 198 guns in 2007 and 217 in 2010. District Attorney Frank Phillips said the surrendered weapons included two working World War II-era machine guns with 20-round clips.
"If those guns had gotten into the hands of a criminal, they certainly could have wreaked havoc on the streets of Orange County," Phillips said.
The 2013 buyback was in the works before gunmen killed school kids in Newtown, Conn., and firefighters in Webster, but Orange County Executive Ed Diana said those two high-profile tragedies might encourage more people to surrender their weapons.
The shootings inflamed gun issues across the nation, prompting tougher gun laws in New York and proposals for new federal restrictions.
Diana said it's too early to say what effect new laws would have locally, but he said legislation should come from the federal level to provide consistency. Phillips said New York already had some of the country's toughest gun laws, but that hasn't prevented the influx of weapons from outside.
"The problem is the ability of people to buy guns out of state — Florida, Georgia — and transport them in New York and put them in the hands of gangbangers," Phillips said.
Unless that changes, he said, New York could ban all guns and it wouldn't help.

Hi, my son is 19 and has an EHCP. He is at mainstream college studying a level 3. Despite help he will not be able to step up after this and wants to do another level 3.
He is not ready to work, just wouldn't manage it and will not entertain the idea of a supported internship.
Does anyone else know if the LA will fund another level 3 at 19? Considering there are not her options left for him.
I've heard that in exceptional circumstances they will.
Any ideas?
Many thanks.

Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) members yesterday expressed mixed feelings about DPP Chairman Su Tseng-chang's (蘇貞昌) plan to try to recall President Ma Ying-jeou (馬英九) and Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) lawmakers, which he announced during the "Fury" (火大) rally in Taipei on Sunday. The government said such efforts were unlikely to succeed.
The reasoning behind the plan is legitimate because Ma's governance has been poor, some DPP figures said, but others were concerned about the political ramifications the move could have and the difficulty of achieving the recall.
DPP spokesperson Lin Chun-hsien (林俊憲) said the party is still working out how to proceed with the plan and has not decided which KMT lawmakers to try to recall, but added that it would try to achieve what Su said would be a bid to replace "incompetent government officials" and "irresponsible lawmakers."
The DPP has to wait until Feb. 1 to launch a bid to recall lawmakers and May 20 for a bid to recall Ma, since regulations do not permit such actions until a politician has completed one year of their term.
DPP Central Executive Committee member Hung Chih-kune (洪智坤) supports the initiative, saying it was what the people wanted and would unite the party.
Hung was unconcerned about the high threshold for recalling the president — which has to be proposed by at least a quarter of the legislature and agreed to by at least two-thirds of members before passing a national referendum — because "an opposition party is obliged to apply pressure to the ruling party" and Taiwanese "no longer have the patience to wait three more years for Ma to turn the country around."
Recalling a lawmaker is not as difficult, but still requires at least 2 percent of the total electorate in the relevant electoral district to propose such a move and a petition signed by at least 13 percent of voters, before being approved by a simple majority in the constituency.
However, Hung said the "China factor" would still be the deciding issue in major elections as it was responsible for marginalizing Taiwan internationally, eroding its sovereignty, hollowing out its economy and jeopardizing free speech.
The KMT's argument that a recall would be socially destabilizing, is unconvincing because the current political situation is "extremely stable" due to the KMT's dominance of the administrative and legislative branches, he said.
Former DPP legislator Lin Cho-shui (林濁水) said the recall plan was more of a political statement than a practical goal because it would be very difficult to achieve, adding that the DPP should instead focus on presenting its policy on pension reform and anti-media monopoly.
Former DPP legislator Julian Kuo (郭正亮) said that recalling KMT lawmakers and Ma would both be difficult.
The KMT lawmakers the DPP would most likely target are those from constituencies in northern Taiwan who earned landslide victories in the last legislative elections, including Wu Yu-sheng (吳育昇), who beat the DPP candidate in his constituency last year by 17,696 votes, Kuo said.
It would be almost impossible to recall those legislators, he said.
Meanwhile, Legislative Speaker Wang Jin-pyng (王金平) said the DPP has little chance of passing a proposal to recall Ma in the legislature because the threshold for doing so is very high.
The DPP and the Taiwan Solidarity Union (TSU) hold a total of 43 seats in the 113-seat legislature, short of the two-thirds needed to pass a motion to recall Ma.

Bars with live music
Ultra Lounge
2169 N. Milwaukee Ave. 773-269-2900
This former clubby martini spot has been remodeled into a small-scale live music venue with a separate room for local and traveling acts playing everything from hip-hop to indie rock.
2401 N. Western Ave. 773-276-9730
You'd be hard-pressed to find a live music bar with a better craft beer selection not just in the neighborhood, but the entire city.
The Mutiny
2428 N. Western Ave. 773-486-7774
Indie rock and punk bands both random and up-and-coming play the makeshift stage at this beer-fueled dive.
Cole's Bar
2338 N. Milwaukee Ave. 773-276-5802
Owner and namesake Coleman Brice sees the stage at his no-frills tavern falling somewhere between Cal's and Beat Kitchen, hosting emerging local acts that skew quieter during the week and rock a little harder on weekends.
The Whistler
2421 N. Milwaukee Ave. 773-227-3530
The stage may be small, but this powder blue-walled bar is known just as much for eclectic no-cover music as cheap craft cocktails.
Rosa's Lounge
3420 W. Armitage Ave. 773-342-0452
Founded by a drummer and his mother (yes, that would be Rosa), the blues cred of this well-worn tavern belies its dive-bar looks.
The Burlington
3425 W. Fullerton Ave. 773-384-3243
Eclectic DJ bookings may be what put this tavern on the map, but you can also catch live sets from local and traveling bands.
Concert venues
Congress Theater
2135 N. Milwaukee Ave. 773-276-1235
This historic theater stands out not only for its golden domed ceiling and sweeping lobby staircase, but also the big-name national acts it books for shows. Paramore, Passion Pit, Deadmau5 and Lupe Fiasco are just a few of the concerts that have drawn crowds in recent years.
Logan Square Auditorium
2539 N. Kedzie Ave. 773-252-6179
This second-floor ballroom used to play host to weddings and banquets but now sees its fair share of eclectic acts take the stage, from local punk marching band Mucca Pazza to Grace Potter and the Nocturnals.

Question: What is tiered storage and how can I use it in my environment?
Answer: Tiered storage (which you may have seen me talk about at the SQL PASS summit, SSWUG, user groups, SQL Saturday's, etc.) is a technique that storage administrators use which in a nutshell puts the most needed data on the fastest (and most expensive) storage available while data which doesn't need such high response times is put on to slower (and cheaper) storage.
Related: Should I be using table partitioning or auto tiering features on my storage array?
There are two goals which are met by using a tiered storage approach.
1. You reserve your most expensive storage for the applications that really need it allowing them to have the fastest possible IO response times and the least contention for resources.
2. You save money (anyone not like saving money?). By purchasing less expensive (I almost put cheaper in here and there is nothing cheap about enterprise level storage) disks you are able to put things that may not need that really expensive storage on the lower end storage.
The higher tiers of storage are typically used for things like databases (SQL Server, Oracle, Exchange, MySQL, DB2, etc.) as well as any really critical file servers. As you move into the lower tiers of storage this becomes a great place to store things like archive databases where the response time isn't as critical, infrastructure databases like the database for the BlackBerry Enterprise Server, the databases for your monitoring applications, software deployment applications, as well as more general purpose file servers. This would also be where you will probably put some of your virtual machine virtual OS drives.
Once you get into the slowest storage (typically SATA drives) this is where you'll be storing things like backups, departmental file shares, other virtual machine OS drives. This slowest, least expensive tier will usually be made up of the largest spindles so you'll want to put data which isn't going to be accessed very often but takes up a lot of space in here.
As I stated earlier, you typically would want to put databases on the higher tiers of storage simply because databases have such a high IO requirement especially when compared to normal operations for file servers and application servers. However every situation is different and it could easily make sense in some cases to put the databases on slower storage and other servers on the faster storage, provided that those servers really needed the faster storage.
Hopefully you found this useful, keep those questions coming,

Democratic Leaders Demand Bush Explain Economic Forecasts
19, 2004
D.C. -- House Democratic Leaders released a letter sent to President
Bush today in response to the refusal by two Cabinet officers to
support President Bushs prediction that the economy will add
2.6 million jobs this year. The leaders seek a reasoned explanation
of the Bush Administration's economic policies on job creation and
the deficit.
Following is
the full text of the letter:
February 19, 2004
President George
W. Bush
The White House
Washington, DC 20500
Dear Mr. President:
During the
past week, your Administration has sent conflicting signals to the
American people regarding the sluggish job growth that has plagued
America for the past three years.
Your two top economic advisers, Treasury Secretary Snow and Commerce
Secretary Evans - while traveling earlier this week to promote your
economic plan in two of the states hit hardest by unemployment -
refused to back up the official prediction by the White House that
the economy will add 2.6 million jobs this year.
White House
Press Secretary Scott McClellan dismissed the concerns expressed
by Secretary Snow and Secretary Evans, stating that people
can debate the numbers all they want
Economists do economic
modeling, then make forecasts.
The numbers
you are debating represent the jobs of American workers. What you
believe to be an intellectual debate among your Cabinet members
has a real impact on the lives of middle-class American families
nationwide. If you no longer believe your economic program will
create 2.6 million additional jobs, Americans would like to know,
how many will it create?
In addition,
your budget and the White House CEA report make a number of other
assumptions about future economic conditions. For example, you project
that the $521 billion deficit will be cut in half in five years.
That number is in part due to the same economic modeling that created
the 2.6 million new jobs figure. White House economists who did
the economic modeling made a forecast that is somewhat rosier than
forecasts by the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office and other
recognized economists. If you do not support the jobs prediction
in your economic report, does this mean you also do not support
your previous assertion that your policies will cut the deficit
in half in five years?
American workers
have a right to know what they can expect over the next year and
what your plan is for jumpstarting the economy. Given the conflicting
statements of your economic team, we urge you to resolve the differences
of opinion in your Cabinet and present the American people with
a real estimate of the impact of your economic plan and the jobs
it will create. It is difficult for Members of Congress to support
your economic policies when there is no reasoned estimate of their
impact. We are eager for some reassurance that your economic projections
and estimates are based in reality, not political fiction.
Finally, your
failure to support an extension of federal unemployment benefits
for the millions of American workers who have been unable to find
a job in an economy that is failing to produce enough jobs to match
population growth, let alone to make up for the 2.3 million jobs
lost since you have been in office, shows a lack of compassion for
their plight. Your opposition, and that of Congressional Republican
leaders, stands in defiance of bipartisan majority support in the
House for an extension.
We hope that
you will put partisan politics aside and work with us to extend
the temporary federal unemployment benefits program and create the
economic prosperity that every American deserves.

Fairy Tale Minimum Wage Economics
Ballot backers don't think jobs will be lost
According to MIRS News, the backers of the ballot proposal that would increase the minimum wage to $10.10 per hour, "said the change would raise wages for about 940,000 people in Michigan, or 24 percent of workers."
That number is reached by looking at the number of workers currently making less than $10.10 per hour, adding in hundreds of thousands of other employees, assuming they will also get a raise and pretending that mandating a 36 percent increase in labor costs would have no effect on employment.
Stay Engaged
If that's the kind of economics minimum wage backers believe in, they are cruel to ask for only $10.10 per hour. Raising the minimum wage to $20 per hour would "affect" even more employees; $100 per hour would "raise wages" for virtually all Michigan workers.
The reason those amounts aren't called for is that it is well understood that there would be mass unemployment, skyrocketing prices and tremendous economic harm. Though not as bad, there are negative economic effects when the government institutes wage mandates at lower levels, like the $10.10 per hour, as well.
Specifically, this harms younger and lower-skilled workers. As economist Thomas Sowell has noted, before a federal minimum wage, the labor force participation for African-Americans was equal to whites. In the 1930s, just before the federal government set a minimum wage for the first time, African-Americans actually had a lower unemployment rate than whites. Today, the rate is twice as high, and even worse for young people.
Every worker starts at a job somewhere, hoping to gain skills and experience to work their way up. The state should not make it harder for workers to get that start.

Estimating data center PUE
When estimating data center energy use, consider applying these five analysis techniques.
Socrates said, "The more I learn, the more I learn how little I know." This quote can correlate strongly with the topic of estimating and analyzing data center energy use. Despite many years of experience, a definitive, detailed approach on how to estimate power usage effectiveness (PUE) in a project's early design phases is extremely elusive.
Reports and articles typically focus on measuring energy use after a facility is operational. The Green Grid Association and ASHRAE offer a wealth of information on how to perform energy compliance analyses and how to use the data to determine PUE (see "For further reading"). However, applying this knowledge to an energy use simulation process takes a lot of reverse engineering and postulations on how the data center will actually function.
Even after making the appropriate assumptions and creating the energy model, the fact remains that most data centers are an amalgamation of standard commercial office space (corridors, offices, conference rooms, restrooms, and loading docks) and technology spaces (data halls, communication rooms, UPS/electrical rooms, generator rooms, and air handling rooms). To further complicate matters, there often is no clear differentiation between the spaces included in the PUE calculation and ones that are not. Also, it is typical to see power and cooling systems that serve multiple zones of a facility, obscuring a solution even more.
According to The Green Grid, "In mixed-use data centers, shared ancillary services, such as common lobbies, common bathrooms, and elevators may be excluded from the energy use boundary. However, ancillary services that are dedicated to the data center must be included (e.g., lobby, bathrooms, office spaces that are dedicated to the data center operation)." While this offers some direction, it becomes clear that the energy engineer responsible for determining the estimated energy use and data center PUE must make significant assumptions. PUE is based on annual energy usage—the average of the energy use over 8,760 hours, but the peak PUE is also an essential metric when examining the greatest hourly power demand. It should be noted that to keep the nomenclature consistent, there technically isn't a peak PUE because PUE is measured in energy use, not demand. However, knowing snapshot PUE values over the course of a year is helpful when analyzing which systems use the highest amount of power, and when.
There are three common arrangements for projects that require pre-design phase energy use approximations:
- Stand-alone data center: includes the entire building
- Stand-alone data center: includes data halls, UPS/battery rooms, and communication rooms; excludes offices, corridors, and infrastructure rooms
- Data center inside a commercial building: includes all technology spaces and only office spaces that directly support the data center.
Clearly, there are many combinations of and variations on these three arrangements that can be developed, and each results in a different energy use and PUE estimate. Until there is a regulated approach and strict definition of how to determine which areas and associated power and cooling systems should be included in the PUE calculation, there will be, at best, inconsistent approaches and, at worst, gaming in order to get the most attractive PUE. The importance of this standardization becomes elevated when data center users ask that the PUE be guaranteed before the development of data center construction documents (see Figure 1). The guarantee is typically tied to financial penalties and shared savings depending on the data center's energy use performance, so documenting assumptions and referring to relevant industry standards is vital for inclusion in the contractual documents.
The purpose of this article is to expose conditions that will influence estimated energy use; it is not intended to provide solutions simply because there are too many different parameters and circumstances to cover. However, the following items illustrate analysis techniques that can be applied toward particular situations. Undoubtedly, this list will continue to grow as we learn.
- Continuous cooling UPS losses
- Separate, smaller UPS for other IT loads
- Miscellaneous power and lighting usage schedules
- Elevated supply air temperatures
- Partial IT load.
Continuous cooling UPS losses
The combination of high-reliability, high-density, and high-temperature data center operation has led to the use of continuous cooling (CC) systems. The HVAC and electrical system design, program requirements, and project budget will drive the amount of cooling equipment required to have continuous operation in the event of a power interruption until on-site generation equipment is fully energized. For water-based cooling systems, the pumps will often be on the CC system to circulate water that is still cold due to its high thermal capacity. In this situation, the computer room air handler or air handling unit fans must also be on the CC system.
Less common is to have the vapor compression equipment on the CC system, due to the large power demand of the compressors. Because much of the support systems and equipment for the IT gear in the data center are located in areas outside the data center proper, it is necessary to make an assessment of the operational continuity requirements of electrical gear and other equipment that can be adversely affected by exposure to prolonged elevated temperatures. The outcome of this assessment will inform the engineers if cooling equipment outside the data center must be on the CC system.
As in the other UPS systems, the CC system will have losses that will vary by the amount of cooling load and associated power demand. This is where the use of economization systems not only reduces the amount of energy used by the cooling system, but also reduces the amount of losses generated by the CC system (see Figure 2). When modeling this aspect of the data center, good practice dictates that these electrical loss variations be modeled as accurately as possible as to not overestimate energy use by assuming that the power required by the cooling system does not change throughout the year.
Separate, smaller UPS for other IT loads
The UPS system in the data center is arguably one of the most critical components of the electrical system to protect the IT equipment from power anomalies and to provide ride-through time in the event of a loss of power. Each type of UPS equipment will have a distinct efficiency curve that depicts how the efficiency changes with changes in the IT load. Based on this curve, the energy engineer can predict how much additional energy is required of the air-conditioning system due to the UPS inefficiencies.
Less apparent is the use of smaller UPS systems for IT loads that might be located outside the data center proper. The equipment might be for communication devices, security, building management, and in healthcare settings, medical IT equipment used for medical records and imaging. First, it will need to be determined if this equipment will be considered as a part of the primary IT load, thereby going in the denominator of the PUE equation. Second, the inefficiency of this (undoubtedly smaller) UPS system will need to be included in the PUE calculation as part of the annual energy use. The primary UPS system will have different operating characteristics (efficiency at part loads) and should not be used as a proxy for the smaller UPS system.

If you have advanced lung disease and you have tried everything else, lung transplantation may provide an alternative. Organ transplants have been shown to improve:
Today, lung transplantation is available to many patients. Most of the transplants are for end-stage lung disease resulting from:
Before you receive a lung transplant, your doctor must refer and screen you for eligibility. If you meet all the criteria, you will be put on the lung transplant list. When a lung transplant is available, your hospital will contact you, and you must be ready to go to receive your transplant. Lean more about Before Transplantation - Getting on the Transplant List.
You will then go into surgery. After the operation, you will have a brief period of recovery in the hospital with a breathing tube. Learn more about Lung Transplant Surgery and Recovery.
When you are ready, you will be sent home to continue recovering. Afterwards, your new lungs should last you for the rest of your life. Learn more about Medications for Lung Transplant Patients.
You must watch out for some things during lung transplantation. To prevent your body from rejecting the new lungs, you will take medicine that suppresses your immune system. This will make it easier for you to get infections and malignancies such as tumors. There are also additional medicines to help cover for your immune system while it is suppressed.

Two Yale Juniors Included
CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Two Yale juniors, punter Kyle Cazzetta (Slate Hill, N.Y.) and running back Tyler Varga (Kitchener, Ont.) have been selected to the College Football Performance Awards Watch List. The CFPA, the largest awards organization in D-I college football, will hand out individual post-season honors in the Football Championship Subdivision.
Cazzetta, who averaged 40 yards per punt last season, is one of the Ivy League's premier special teams players. He put 13 punts inside the 20-yard line and had a long boot of 72 in 2012.
The 6-foot, 208-pound lefty has been the starting punter the last two seasons and may also be handling the placekicking for the 2013 Bulldogs, who open the season at Colgate on Sept. 21.
Varga earned the 2012 CFPA Elite All-Purpose Award after leading the NCAA Football Championship Subdivision in all-purpose yards per game. He was a first-team All-Ivy pick in his first season of American collegiate football, rushing for 935 yards and eight touchdowns.
The former Canadian collegiate star, who led the Ivy League in rushing yards per game, played running back and quarterback last fall while also returning kickoffs.
