The Warriors
In 1979, director/writer Walter Hill brought to the screen the most epic of gang warfare dramas. Unlike other gang films, The Warriors was no mere knife/gun fight between two opposing groups on a street cornerit was New York City-wide in scope and the players were a dozen theatrically-dressed gangs with names like the Baseball Furies, the Rogues and the Orphans. Thrilling at every turn, The Warriors is filled with harrowing subway chases, gritty murders, hard-boiled romance and the voice of a sexy radio DJ gal whos following all the action. Come revisit their midnight run and cheer the Warriors on to Coney to clear their name!

Families of 'Best Buy Midnight Massacre' Victims Get Free Copies of "Dragon Age 2"
ATLANTA, Georgia - Families of the five killed in Monday night's 'Best Buy Midnight Massacre' received complimentary copies of Dragon Age 2 for the system of their choice (minus Xbox 360).
Best Buy hosted a midnight release last night for the highly-anticipated role-playing title Dragon Age 2. At 11:32 PM, the UPS delivery truck carrying the copies of the game spun out of control as it entered the parking lot and collided with 6 people, killing everyone plus the driver.
"It was a frightening experience for everyone. The shipment was already running late, and when I saw the accident, I rushed outside right away to make sure everyone had their pre-order tickets," Best Buy employee Bill Jetson said. "We needed to get into that truck as soon as possible. Sparks were flying and the truck was leaking gas; that shipment wouldn't last long."
With the aid of those waiting in line, Jetson was able to find the driver's keys to open the back of the truck, secure the shipment, and proceeded to fill customers' orders. "I made sure to set aside a few copies for the families of the departed, except we sold out of the 360 version, so they get to choose between PC and PS3 versions when they come to the store and pick them up."
"It was tense, but by the grace of God we were able to avoid a catastrophe."

I've worn the socks at least once a week in that time, and have worn them in the Australian bush, snowboarding, on the Inca Trail and fell walking. This morning the elastic finally went in the top of one of the socks, so I fear they will be retired soon. Having said that, they show no sign of wear on the toes or sole.
I remember paying about GBP20 for these in 1997 just before a visit to Sri Lanka. My then wife choked on how much I'd spent on "just a pair of socks". I'm now on my second wife, and I can safely say that these socks were one of my most sound financial investments of the last decade and a half.
Oh, and by the way, I lied. I am just wearing a pair of socks.
Does anyone know a good hiking sock manufacture?
Sent the first pair back. Of course I had to pay for return shipping. I now have over $14.00 in this pair of socks. Received new pair from return. The first time they were washed the entire toe stitching came out. This company really has a problem. I would not order their socks until they get the quality issue straightened out.
I will send this the second pair back, stay tuned.

Skip to comments.Howard Kurtz' Media Buzz on Fox News Attacks Bergdahl's Platoon
Posted on 06/09/2014 6:45:14 AM PDT by xzins
I have a confession. I watch Fox weekend programming...some. It's generally when I awaken too early in the middle of the night, and I have to choose between Ninja Blender and Golden Girl reruns. I move over to Fox News hoping to get back to sleep.
Somewhere in the middle of the night last night I bumped into Kurtz' weekly show that initially featured discussion on Bowe Bergdahl. He was helped along by radical liberal Bill Press and liberal Laura Ashburn. Jim Pinkerton was a lone conservative voice in a show reminiscent of every liberal "panel" on other network TV.
How dare Bergdahl's platoon consider him a deserter? (They knew better than those who were there.) How dare conservatives question his father? How dare conservatives think it only realistic that his captors imprisoned him and did not initially trust him? How dare conservatives think Bergdahl was trying to escape only after he figured he might have miscalculated the Taliban instantly falling in love with him.
I've been puzzled all week by Fox running MSNBC commercials. Maybe not so much after Media Buzz in the middle of the night.
And, believe it or not, Kurtz unfairly attacked O'Reilly. There's probably no love lost for O'Reilly on Free Republic, but FR can be fair to the man. Plante and group were all over O'Reilly for suggesting that Bergdahl's dad was coming across as a Taliban sympathizer. I agree with O'Reilly. BergDad did come across as a sympathizer. Lying through their teeth, Plante/Ashworth/Kurtz all stated O'Reilly concluded this based on BergDad's beard.
All of them knew O'Reilly had argued that BergDad went out of his way to look like a Taliban sympathizer because of a stream of Islamic praise in the language of Islam that came flowing out of BergDad's own lips. Adding to that the beard, the public statements, and the advice to his son, O'Reilly came to a conclusion.
But, ignoring all the facts, Kurtz attacked Fox's flagship and lied about it by omission.
This weekend's Media Buzz received an immediate Nielsen rating. I flipped off the TV. Don't watch Media Buzz. It's a waste.
Bergdahl's Platoon are getting the Swiftboat treatment.
Every military school I ever went to said to trust the guys on the ground, listen to the guys on the ground.
Suddenly, we're met by a bunch of armchair, air conditioned, thousands of miles from the action, commentators and journalists who say that the guys on the ground have absolutely no idea what happened on the front lines.
And the talking heads do.
I wonder if Americans will swallow the journalists' swill?
"I wonder if Americans will swallow the journalists swill?"
It depends if Obama steps in an prevents an investigation into Bergdal's disappearance. If he does, the LIVs will only hear Obama's side of the story from the LSM, that Bergdahl is a hero.
Finally, they have found a soldier they can stand behind.
Suddenly, they are all experts on military honor and code.
"It's generally when I awaken too early in the middle of the night"
In theological terms it's called the "wages of sin" i.e. eating barbecue after 9:00 P.M.. You of all people should know this!!
The media's stupid portrayal of 'leave no soldier behind' is as vacuous as all their other reporting.
They conveniently ignore that at the end of every war that America has welcomed home its POWs. If we have their pie-in-the-sky policy of trading for every POW, then how did we have POWs return home at the end of wars?
He's simply playing the part Alan Colmes used to for Fox, because he looks less of a doofus.
Even worse, Blue...yesterday I had the late night urge that somehow resulted in both sour cream and watermelon being eaten the same evening.
Deadly mixture. :>)
Kurta = Colmes. I can believe that.
But he's so transparent, and his show (witness last night's) is SO bad.
KurtZ = Colmes. I can believe that.
But he's so transparent, and his show (witness last night's) is SO bad.
Media Buzz is a horrible show. Fox news is useless on weekends. No news at all. Just leftie media whores talking about what interests them.
"late night urge that somehow resulted in both sour cream and watermelon"
I think Kay had that urge just before Dal was born. You have been a Methodist too long. Time to switch over to the true faith...us Baptists.
I didn't see it, so thanks for the post. I'm glad he's looking bad, he's always had an aura of "good guy, honest liberal" that I considered a wrong appraisal of someone so clearly (to me) in the tank for the totalitarian left.
My guess is it's the cable company running those ads, not Fox.
I thought about switching over to Baptist...but my name wasn't John. Homer the Baptist just doesn't have the right ring to it.
Kurtz is an operative of the State-Run Media, and always has been. Used to work for the WaPo and CNN.
Fox news is not what it used to be...Howie Kurtz, Juan Williams, Geraldo, et al. have made a huge turn to the left, just like the Wall Street Journal
The one thing that makes this toxic and hopefully fatal to The Regime is the boots on the ground speaking truth to power - to powerful liars.
The Regime did NOT see that coming. None of the myriad scandals have this aspect.
I trust that their security is being well attended to.
QY: Is there compilation of ALL the truth tellers' testimony?
If the guys on the ground tell you the enemy has a new weapon that shoots flaming darts from their arse, then you take them seriously. (Stolen a bit from Braveheart...a great movie in which Wallace listened to his guys on the ground.)
Swift boating is retained for Jone "I faked my Purple Heart" Kerry only so to turn it around on anyone else won't work.
Liberals are trying to use this wording because they can't come up with anything on their own.
That and the fact that even the Taliban never got comfortable trusting a deserter/traitor and at first kept him locked up. (I wouldn't have trusted him either.)
That and the fact that Bergdahl was hacked that the Taliban didn't recognize how wonderful he was right away so thought maybe he better try to get out of there. (The so-called 'escape'.)
So, if the enemy you desert to isn't immediately impressed with a traitor, it's only THEN that you deserve the Medal of Honor.
Here is what some lefties told me on Friday night. He didn't desert. He was sent in undercover to go and spy on the Taliban, while pretending to be a deserter. That is why he was promoted while in captivity. And us common peasants, nor his platoon mates, don't or can't know any of this, we should just trust the President.
Howard Kurtz is UNWATCHABLE!!!! FOX should be ASHAMED!!!
I agree. The old media watch show was much better.
Kurtz is a liberal and the last person who should be evaluating the media on a network that conservatives gravitate to.
That is just about the dumbest thing I ever heard.
I saw it too. I had to check the station, I thought I was on CNN or some other left wing station. It was BS for sure. I e mailed Fox News and let them know what I thought about it.
And they know this and we don't, why?
When Faux announced his move to their network, I shouted to self—WTF do they need another liberal? I have never liked/trusted/listened/watched this excuse for a reporter.

CASS delivers high quality and consistent services to meet the needs of seniors.
The Value of CASS
The focus of CASS is to deliver services to seniors that allow them to age with dignity and independence. Seniors want to be independent. They want to remain in their homes, surrounded by what is familiar to them, near friends and family. And, they want to be as active as possible. But, as they age, maintaining that independence can be a challenge. Home-bound seniors or those without family support or other resources need protection, security, and care options. Our Mission is to provide enhanced stability and safety for seniors who desire to remain independent by addressing their needs and providing accessible and relevant services.
CASS delivers tasty and nutritious meals to homebound seniors. Home-delivered meals offer the choice of a full menu, similar to going to a restaurant. Additionally CASS serves free meals at ten community meal sites to seniors.
CASS offers safety and security through the Guardianship and Financial Case Management services. We advocate, promote and meet the needs of seniors by helping them obtain care management, counsel and financial security.
CASS provides individual transportation through our Senior Independent Transportation Program (SIT) and group transportation to medical appointments, the grocery store, and social outings.

Sony MDR-ZX600 headphonesPocket-lint
The Sony MDR-ZX600 is a set of on-ear headphones. They pick-up on some of the style points of the DJ-specific and more highly specified MDR-V55 headphones we reviewed recently, but arrive at a surprisingly affordable price point.
Do Sony's ZX600 deliver on their promise to feel every beat, or are they cast in the shadow of better headphones?
With an on-ear design, the cups are lovingly finished in brushed aluminium with the Sony logo central, to leave no one in any doubt about where your allegiances lie.
Unlike some models, the ZX600 don't fold, so they aren't ideal for travel, but the cups fold flat to make them easier to stash in your bag. The cups also swivel, so it's easy to get the ideal position on your head.
The headband is finished in soft leather, leather effect material, as are the pads on the ear cups and the result is a comfortable set of headphones. They can get a little warm during long periods of wear, but on our typical one to two-hour sessions, we never found this to be too much of a problem.
There is a degree of expansion in the headband too, so the ZX600 will fit your noggin, whether it's large or small.
We like the colour coordination that Sony has introduced to its designs. We saw the same thing on the V55, and on our review sample the blue flat cable reflects colour highlights in the design. The fibre cover to the monitors matches, as does the encircling ring around the aluminium back, making for a neat overall effect, that gives the impression of good quality.
The lightweight nature of these headphones makes them ideal for those on the move and we've worn them walking. They are also compact, meaning they will fit under your hood when that summer shower arrives.
The build quality is also pretty good. The cables feel secure and that's a common weakness of some headphones at the more affordable end of the scale. Perhaps we'd like the swivel points to be a little more substantial, but for the price, we can't complain.
The flexibility of the cups means that getting a good fit on your head is easy. They offer a degree of noise isolation thanks to that fit, although it was apparent that once the volume is turned up there is an amount of sound leakage too, so consider those around you when sitting on the bus.
The good fit means that performance is good and bass especially benefits, with nice rich bass tones punching through. Set against the similar V55, we'd say the more expensive model have a clearer overall sound, so you get more definition across the range from bass to high tones, but given the price gap, the ZX600 do sound very good.
We tested the ZX600 over several weeks, in all conditions, with all types of music. The result is that they are very capable, especially given the sub-£60 price. Whether it's grime, garage, house or classical, the ZX600 step up to the mark to deliver a good quality sound.
The 40mm drivers also deliver that performance throughout the volume range. Firing up Plan B's gritty Ill Manors, the ZX600 have no problem delivering the track at full volume. There's no sign of distortion at top volume, even when pushing meaty a bass line.
The Sony MDR-ZX600 headphones represent a viable alternative to expensive models. The lightweight nature, affordable price and solid performance make these on-ear headphones worthy of consideration if you want to bring your tunes to life on the move.
If you can afford to spend more, then there are headphone that will offer you better performance, from Sony's V55, up to the likes of the Bowers & Wilkins P5. As they are, these Sony's will likely be seen as something of a viable affordable alternative to something like the Beats Solo.
There are some shortcomings. They aren't the most substantial and they don't fold for travel, but for bang for your buck, the Sony MDR-ZX600 are certainly worth considering.

Mississauga Celebration Square
Mississauga, Ontario
Public Space
Mississauga Celebration Square is located in the heart of downtown Mississauga and considered one of the most unique outdoor event venues and public spaces in the Greater Toronto Area. The 6.6 acre public square has a capacity of 30,000 people and its inviting design features a permanent main stage, two 15' x 28' digital screens, a state-of-the-art sound and lighting system, an expansive lawn, a 300-seat amphitheatre and a water fountain that transforms into Mississauga's largest outdoor skating rink each winter.
Mississauga Celebration Square is home to annual festivals and events, contributing to the transformation of the neighbourhood and downtown into a vibrant, diverse and unique cultural node. With 30,000 residents within walking distance, Mississauga Celebration Square has been a catalyst for development and re-development including the expansion of Square One – one of the largest in Canada, the new Sheridan College Hazel McCallion campus, and the Central Library.
The program focus for Mississauga Celebration Square has been to include a variety of smaller, place-making events as well as large scale signature events like Canada Day and New Year's Eve. These large events combine main stage entertainment, supported by the digital screens, with atmospheric entertainment to create memorable experiences for visitors. As the population in the City Centre continues to grow (projected downtown population for City Centre is 46,000 by 2031), Mississauga Celebration Square will continue to host a dynamic mix of interactive events – all for free.
Events and Festivals
Mississauga Celebration Square events and festivals showcase the arts, cultural diversity and talent Mississauga has to offer. In 2014, Mississauga Celebration Square was visited by more than 580,000 people, with visitors enjoying more than 55 events held over 143 days. From November to March, visitors can enjoy skating on the city's largest outdoor rink, as well as celebrate at the annual holiday lighting and New Year's Eve events. The summer season offers diverse programming, including weekly movie nights, fitness classes, concerts, a Canada Day Celebration, food truck rallies, and independently produced festivals that showcase Mississauga's multiculturalism such as Ribfest, Irie Mississauga Festival, Mississauga Ukranian Festival, Bollywood Monster Mashup, Mosaic South Asian Heritage Festival, Mississauga ITALFEST and much more. International recording artists who have played the main stage include De La Soul, July Talk, Carly Rae Jepson, Down with Webster and Kardinal Offishall. Mississauga Celebration Square works with culture programming partners to engage local artists to create a well-rounded user experience that includes local musical talent, world art, culture, and sport with a spin.
Mississauga Celebration Square forms part of Mississauga's City Centre precinct, a cultural landscape, which is listed on the City of Mississauga's Heritage Register. Mississauga Celebration Square, City Hall, Central Library and the Living Arts Centre comprise the civic campus. City Hall was developed as a result of an international competition and designed by UK architect Edward Jones in association with Michael Kirkland and Project Planning, of Toronto. The project put Mississauga on the international cultural map.
Mississauga Celebration Square is at the centre of a development area; Downtown Mississauga occupies one percent of the Mississauga's land area but is home to approximately 20,000 jobs and 30,000 residents. Approximately 15% of the total value of new construction value across Mississauga is constructed in the downtown and an average of two percent of the City's annual capital budget is invested in the area. The Downtown Core consists of high density residential developments including the acclaimed Absolute/Marilyn Monroe buildings, office buildings, mixed use developments, parks, post-secondary institutional and cultural facilities. Mississauga's Growth Management Strategy identifies the Downtown Core as the most intense growth area of concentrated development in the city. The Downtown population is expected grow by almost 57% in the next 25 years and see large increases in employment and housing in the surrounding area.
In the early 2000s, the City of Mississauga recognized that existing physical, mechanical and performance infrastructures on the City's Civic Square were at life expectancy and needed to be revived. In 2010, Mississauga's Civic Square underwent a $40 million dollar redevelopment as an Infrastructure Stimulus Fund (ISF) project. Canadian architectural firm CS&P Architects focused on the design principles of 'placemaking' (turning public spaces into vital community places) to upgrade amenities to support a wide range of events and festivals, all while providing daily attractions for visitors to enjoy. The innovative design won the 2011 Mississauga Urban Design Awards' Award of Excellence.
In June 2011 the Civic Square reopened under a new name, Mississauga Celebration Square, and has seen tremendous growth in both the attendance and types of events, with an average of 12 new events per year and a 23% increase in attendance. Mississauga Celebration Square continues to grow and develop as part of the revitalization of the City Centre and Downtown core. The addition of a new Mississauga Transitway, and the future development of a Light Transit Rail which will run along Hurontario from Port Credit through downtown and up to Brampton will continue to see an investment in the surrounding area.
Mississauga Celebration Square was designed in accordance with AODA standards, making it fully accessible for everyone. Visitors heading to Mississauga Celebration Square can do so through different modes of transportation. Adjacent to Square One and Mississauga's largest bus terminal, and surrounded by City trails, visitors can take the bus (including GO Transit and Mississauga Transitway), walk or bike to Mississauga Celebration Square. Underground parking is also available directly beneath Mississauga Celebration Square. Upon arrival, ample signage helps people navigate the site, including messaging on wayfinding signage and the two large digital screens. During large events, Mississauga Celebration Square houses an accessible viewing area with additional seating and shade.
Mississauga Celebration Square features amenities and events that are welcoming to all demographics. On non-event days, Mississauga Celebration Square is often seen filled with families enjoying the water fountain, expansive lawn, and outdoor reading room.
Events are programmed to target Mississauga's diverse demographic:
• Children: Mississauga Celebration Square produces a summer kick off called Pep Rally, with entertainment and activities geared towards children. Past entertainment has included the PC Superdogs, kite shows and more.
• Youth: Mississauga Celebration Square brings in youth focused international recording artists to its Block Party, a concert produced in partnership with Mississauga Youth Connect. Past international recording artists include SHAD, Anjulie and Son Real.
• Adults: Mississauga Celebration Square is proud to produce SoundBites each August, featuring the AwesTRUCK Food Truck Awards with more than 25 food trucks, capping the event off with a high energy concert. Past performers include De La Soul and July Talk.
• Family: Weekly events throughout the summer season are programmed towards a family audience, including farmers markets, fitness classes and movie nights. Additionally, signature events such as Canada Day and Light Up the Square, as well as independently produced events, welcome families of all types.
Since its redevelopment in 2011, Mississauga Celebration Square has seen a 30% increase in event attendance, and continues to grow.

text: Should I get health insurance? We're glad you asked. The good news is, if you're a permanent Australian resident then you already have health insurance, it's called Medicare. For most of us, our Medicare health insurance premiums cost two per cent of our annual salary for 'free or subsidised' access to doctors, specialists, optometrists and treatment and accommodation in public hospitals, plus a few other perks. "Thanks, smart alec, I already knew that," we hear you say. So let us rephrase... Should I get private health insurance? Good question, we're glad you asked. But we'd like you to break that question down a bit more because there's really no such thing as private health insurance. There's private hospital insurance and there's private extras insurance, and we're not just being sticklers here because a lot of people waste good money on one of these insurance types without using it. We don't want you to be one of those people. Looking for the best health cover? See our expert product reviews. Health insurance reviews Hospital or no hospital? Now we're getting down to the nitty gritty. You're already forking out at least two per cent of your dosh on Medicare so why should you take out private hospital insurance? No private hospital insurance - the good points: If you earn less than $90k a year (double that for couples and families) the only financial incentive to get hospital cover is that you will have to pay the Lifetime Health Cover (LHC) loading if you take out hospital cover after you're 31. The public hospital system serves people who require emergency surgery well. For more complex and expensive medical conditions, you'll end up in public regardless of whether you have private hospital cover or not, because public hospitals have the equipment. If you are admitted to public hospital as a public patient, Medicare will foot the doctor's bills. But if you're admitted to a private or public hospital as a private patient, you may end up paying a 'gap fee' to your doctor or sometimes even to the hospital. That's the gap between what Medicare and your health fund pays, and what the actual doctor's fee is, and it can run into thousands of dollars. No private hospital insurance - the bad points: For elective surgery you'll end up on a waiting list. You won't be able to choose your own doctor. You'll be in public hospitals instead of private hospitals (which generally have better conditions and service staff). If you earn over $90k a year (double that for couples and family), you'll contribute more than two percent of your salary to Medicare, in the form of the Medicare Levy Surcharge. If you're over 31, and you do eventually decide to get private hospital insurance, then you'll pay more for it in the form of the Lifetime Health Cover loading. What about extras cover? Theoretically, the whole idea of paying insurance premiums is to put a financial cap on how much money comes out of your pocket when the unexpected occurs. Rear-ended a Porsche? No problem, pay your $500 excess and the insurer will pay the rest. House burnt down? Pay the excess and the insurer will re-build. Need a new hip? Pay the excess and your insurer will pay the hospital costs, and maybe some of the doctor's fees. Ok, in reality it's never as easy as this - but we did say theoretically. Need to go to the dentist? Your extras insurance will pay the first $200 (for example) and you'll pay the rest. Do you see the difference? The insurer's liability is capped, yours isn't. For that reason, extras 'insurance' really isn't insurance at all, it's a budget management tool. Do I need extras cover? If you're buying health insurance purely for tax reasons, then no. Not having private hospital insurance can mean you pay extra tax and higher premiums should you take it up again, but these penalties don't apply to extras (ancillary) cover. This type of insurance rarely covers the full cost of your treatment. On average, health funds pay about: half the cost for the dentist and optometrist, a third for medicines not covered by the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme a quarter for hearing aids. And there are wide variations between funds and policies, too. The most generous health insurance fund for dental, for example, refunded 60% on average in 2011-12, while the most miserly health fund covered just 32%. But there are two groups of people who benefit most from extras insurance. Families pay the same health insurance premium as couples – or double the singles premium – so children are insured for free. (Tip: Some health funds offer no-gap cover for kids, particularly for dental.) People aged 55-74 make the most use of their extras cover benefits, compared to other age groups, and receive an average benefit per person of about $500 – almost 10 times more than for children under five. Combined cover This is simply hospital and extras combined into one policy. It can be useful for you because you only deal with one health fund for both types of insurance. It can also be useful for the health funds because they've just sold you two insurance policies in one go. Ask yourself these questions before buying a combined policy: Do you need both hospital and extras? Do you need to get them from the same fund? It's worth pointing out again: private hospital and private extras insurance are separate types of insurance and a lot of people waste good money on one of these insurance types without using it. While there are some good combined policies available, you can often get a better deal by buying the best value extras and hospital insurance from separate funds, so shop around to make sure you're getting the best deal. Ambulance cover Ambulance expenses are not covered by Medicare and the extent of coverage by state governments varies. By definition you can't really predict if or when you're going to need an ambulance so it's worth making sure you're covered. Queensland and Tasmanian residents are covered by their state government. Northern Territory, South Australia, Victoria and Western Australian residents can purchase insurance through a private health fund – it's sometimes included with hospital cover and sometimes with extras so if you purchase health insurance in these states make sure you check that you have ambulance cover, or subscribe to the state ambulance service. It's included in private hospital insurance in NSW and ACT but if you don't have hospital cover in these states, check if it's included in extras cover, or subscribe to the state ambulance service. Check with your health fund to see what kind of ambulance cover is provided. Some funds only cover ground transport, excluding air ambulance for example, and others may only cover emergency ambulance, for example, excluding transfers between hospitals. Why do you keep throwing acronyms at me? Because there's a lot of them. Here's a list of the most important ones: LHC - Lifetime Health Cover (loading) This is a government levy for people who don't have private health insurance once they turn 31. It's designed to get people to take out private health insurance early in life, and to keep it. For every year you don't have hospital insurance on 1 July following your 31st birthday, you'll pay two percent of your premium to the government at tax time. It can add up to 70% and applies for the first 10 years of your hospital cover – after 10 years' of continuous cover the loading will be removed. It doesn't apply for people born on or before 1 July 1934. Note: you only need hospital insurance, there is no loading for extras insurance. MLS – Medicare Levy Surcharge This is a surcharge the federal government charges 'high income earners' at tax time (on top of the Medicare Levy) if you don't have private hospital insurance (again, this only applies to hospital insurance, you don't need extras to avoid this). If you're single and earning up to $90k (double that for couples and families) you're exempt, but above $90k (or $180k for couples and families) it steps up to 1%, 1.25% then 1.5% depending on your income. Your private hospital insurance can only have an excess of $500 or lower (double for couples/families) to be exempt from the MLS. Note: there's no cap on co-payments. PHIR – Private Health Insurance Rebate Ok, we made that one up. It's a real thing, but it doesn't normally go by an acronym. A single person earning up to $90k a year (or a couple or family earning $180k) gets a 26.791% (1 April 2016 to 31 March 2017) rebate on their private health insurance premium (hospital and extras). For those earning above $90k, the rebate steps down incrementally until it reaches 0% for people earning over $140k (families or couples earning over $280k). See our hospital insurance buying guide for the full range of income thresholds for the MLS and Private Health Insurance Rebate. Waiting periods and switching Waiting periods for extras vary per policy: usually it'll be two months for most services, 12 months for major dental and 36 months for hearing aids (what?). For hospital cover, waiting periods for pre-existing conditions are generally 12 months. If you switch to hospital cover considered equivalent or lower than your existing policy (check with the health fund), the waiting period you served on your previous policy will be carried across. But if you upgrade your cover or lower your excess, you will have to serve a new waiting period for the difference in cover. But wait! There's more... Now we're at the end but if you've decided private health insurance is for you, don't get out your wallet just yet. Read our buying guides on hospital and extras insurance.

Dangerous driving is a serious motoring offence, if you have been charged with dangerous driving you should seek the help and advice of an experienced expert solicitor at the earliest opportunity, if possible before being questioned by the police. To discuss your circumstances contact our dangerous driving solicitors on 0203 816 9274 or complete our online enquiry form.
To be found guilty of dangerous driving the prosecution must prove that you have driven in a way that 'falls far below what would be expected of a careful and competent driver'.
A charge of dangerous driving can be brought against a driver for a variety of reasons; including but not limited to: driving at high speeds, aggressive driving, overtaking where it is illegal to do so, ignoring road signs or traffic markings, driving a vehicle which is not road worthy, driving under the influence of excess alcohol or under the influence of drugs.
Due to the serious nature of a charge for dangerous driving a case can be heard in either the Magistrates Court or Crown Court. If found guilty the punishment for a dangerous driving conviction is an obligatory driving ban for a minimum of one year and in the most serious cases a prison sentence of up to 2 years may be imposed. A driver convicted of dangerous driving will also have to sit an extended re-test before they are allowed to drive again
It can sometimes be difficult for the prosecution to prove that the standard of driving was so poor that it constitutes dangerous driving rather than careless driving. The highest level of careless driving is described as careless bordering on the dangerous; therefore it can often be argued that a charge of careless driving is more appropriate.
Representation and expert legal advice is essential if charged with dangerous driving, our experienced specialists have a proven track record in this field, for a free initial appointment to discuss your circumstances contact us as soon as possible. Our dangerous driving experts can be reached 24 hours a day 7 days of the week on 0203 816 9274.

Hampshire took a significant step towards retaining their Division One status when half centuries from Michael Carberry, Jimmy Adams and Liam Dawson frustrated the Kent spinners.
Kent were already aware that they could not expect a challenging declaration from Hampshire, seven points ahead going into the game, and the odds tipped even further against the home side when a heavy shower wiped out the final 17 overs.
A draw is the realistic height of their ambitions here and only an unlikely victory against title-chasing Yorkshire at Headingley next week can avert relegation.
Hampshire, badly served by injury to key players this season, appear much better equipped to push for championship honours next year.
Kent needed early wickets on Thursday morning, but although Malinga Bandara and James Tredwell asked plenty of questions on a helpful, if slow pitch, Carberry and Adams had most of the answers before Adams was leg before sweeping at Bandara 10 minutes before lunch.
Carberry, a much more mature player than the one who struggled to make an impression at Kent between 2003 and 2005, was trapped in front by Bandara after playing watchfully for 174 balls.
Both Phil Hughes and Liam Dawson adopted a more attacking approach, Dawson playing with great fluency as he completed a 71-ball fifty.
The only scent of progress for Kent was after taking the second new ball.
Darren Stevens dismissed Dawson and Sean Ervine with successive deliveries, thanks to slip catches from Tredwell, who juggled the second chance.
Kent met renewed resistance from Hampshire's sixth-wicket pair, James Vince and Michael Bates, before Bates was caught behind.

This inventionrelates to store and stockroorn equipment.
In particular, the invention relates to improved means whereby goods or merchandise stored on shelves above the reach of the store or stockroom clerk may be conveniently brought to any desired level, and subseduentlyreturned to its initial position on such elevated shelves.
It is an object of the invention. to provide conveyor means movable from. andy returnable to, elevated stockroom shelves, whereby the full wall height of stores or stocl'nrooms may be utilized for the storing of goods or merchandise which must be frequently handled.
It is an object of the invention to provid-e means whereby goods stored on shelves above the. convenient reach of the average person may bev made readily accessible without recourse to ladders or like conventional and hazardousv devices.
It is an object of the invention to provide semiautomatic means by which goods or merchandise may be brought from an inaccessible level to a level at which they can be conveniently handled.
It is an object of the invention to provide a vertically movable platform onto which a car containing goods stored upon a high shelf. may be moved for descent to desired level, said platform being held at operational height for reception of said car by interlocking devices respectively positioned on said car and saidpl'atform.
It is an object of the invention to provide for the more economical use of wal-l space in stockrooms or retail stores, by providing for theutilization of otherwise inaccessible wall heights, for the storing of goods which must be frequently handled.
Other features and advantages will hereinafter appear from a study of the specification and drawings, in which,
Fig. l is a front elevation-of a portion of an installation of stockroom shelves, on the'upper level of which one embodiment of my invention is installed;
Fig. 2 is a side elevation, in` section, of the installation of Fig. vl.;

Fig. l0 isl a Aplan View of the means for moving the car outwardly;
Fig. 11 is a vertical section, taken on lines I I-'I I of Fig. l0; and
Fig. 12 is a rear elevation of the car moving means.
Referring to Figs. 1L through 7, Whichillustrate a preferred embodiment of my invention. Fig. l shows a front elevation of an installation of stockroom shelvesor the like I0, on an upper shelf I2 of which, at a level above the reach of the average person, is 4arranged `apparatus embodying the present invention. The illustrated form of my invention permits the carrying. of' four boxes or the like, arranged in two rows, but obviously the capacity isv not limited to the number of boxes or other goods-containing receptacles within reasonable limits. Without appreciable difficulty, the apparatus may be. enlarged. to accommodate four or morerows of boxes, each row being four boxes or more in height.
In its essentials, myinventiori comprises a car or carrier Ill, mounted upon Wheels running on xed. trackways I5, for movement outwardly onto other trackways I6 secured to aplatform Il., which may be raised or lowered, and guided' in such vertical` movement by the Vertical H-shaped guides I8 suitably secured to the shelving structure. Cooperating with guides I8" are the laterally extending slides I9 of brackets 2U secured to the underside -of the platformA Il to Support the same, and'A vertical Slides. 2| secure'dto the rear wall of car I4. Slides I9 are in continuous" engagement with the rear of' guides I8, see Fig'. l, whereas slides 2I engage with guides I8` when the car I is moved onto. platform I'l, see Fig. 7. As shown in Fig. 7; the rear ange of guide I8 is not wider than the vertical postv structure 22 of shelving III, permitting. the outwardly extending slide 2I, to pass such rear lang'e'for engagement with the forward flan-ge' of said guide I8. which thereby limits forward movement of the car I4. During the periods of'. non-use of .the apparatus, the platform ITI is continuously maintained at operational height by'means ofl interlocking angle members 2l3, 24,. disposed respectively on the underside of the carriage I4 andthe upper surface of the platform Il.
A forward projection 25 of angle member 23 engages with a. detent 26" of angle 2'4, see Fig. 5,
when the car I4 is in its most rearward position on the shelves. Hence-.the extension25 operates as a continuous support. to preventthe. platform I'I from dropping below operational position. It
is preferable, see Fig. 5, to so arrange the respective elements 25, 26 that element 25 operates to lift the platform slightly above its operational position. This action forms an effective means of braking the rearward travel of the car I4 when the same isV moved back into position on the shelves, as later described.
As a precautionary measure to insure the maintenance of the position of the platform l1 against any accidental downward movement thereof, and to serve as a resilient bumper or restraint to bring the forward movement of car I4 to a gentle halt, I prefer to provide each of the brackets 20 with a spring member 21, having a nose 28 which normally overles a bar 3B. If, by some chance, a strong downward pull was exerted against platform I1, said pull being of such force that it would move the element 25 downwardly to rotate car I4 clockwise about its forward wheels, upsetting of the car would be prevented, because a very short downward movement of platform I1 would bring the nose 28 in contact with the lug 36, and secure the platform i1 against any further downward travel.
Outward movement of the car I4, as later described, is effective to bring its forwardly extending member 25 beyond the limits of detent 26 prior to the instant when the wheels of said car I4 contact the tracks I6 of platform I1. Hence, the platform I1 is permitted to drop to a position where the tracks I6 thereof are in registry with the tracks I5, whereupon the car may roll forwardly on the tracks I6 preparatory to bringing the platform I1 and its thereon positioned car down to the level desired by the operator. As the car I4 moves completely outward on the platform i1, a lug or equivalent device 3| strikes the detent 21, rotating it outwardly and bringing the nose 28 clear of the lug 3i). Forward movement of the car I4 is limited by the engagement of the rear slides 2l thereof with the guides i3, whereupon the platform and the car are free to be brought downwardly to the level desired.
To conveniently accomplish the downward and upward movement of the oar and platform, I prefer to employ counterweighted pulley means and suitable driving cords. As clearly appears 'in Fig. 2, a handle 33 is provided at one end of a cord which rides over a pair of centering pulleys 34, 35 for securement `to an eye 36 at the rear of the car I4.
A counterweight organization consists of a cord secured to the eye 36, passing over suitable pulleys 31, A33 and terminating in a counterweight 39 of suitable weight.
It will be apparent, therefore, that a downward pull upon the handle 33 is effective to draw the car I4 outwardly onto the platform I1 against the restraining influence of the counterweight 3S. A continued downward'pull on handle 3 insures that the car I4 is' fully supported upon said platform I1, whereupon the platform and Yits car may be' drawn downwardly, by the operator, until it reaches the desired level. Desirably, the counterweight 39'is suflicient toreturn the shelf I1 to its initial-position, even with the car I4 loaded to capacity, whereupon when one or more of the boxes on said car are removed by the store clerk or stock clerk, the platform l1 will return to its elevated position, and the car will be returned to position within the shelves, thereby eliminating possibility of accidents resulting 'from' the projection ofthe car outwardly into an aisle space at a level wherein it might be struck vby a passer-by.
Suitable cushions or bumpers 4I may be mounted on the rear of the car I4 or on cross piece of the shelf structure, to bring the car to a stop without jarring or undue noise.
Figs. 8 through 12 disclose a second embodiment of my invention pursuant to which the car I4' is mounted on the illustrated rollers for movement from the shelf I2 to a platform II, and return from said platform to position within the shelves substantially as previously described.
According to this form of the invention, the car It is provided with spaced channel members 23 having a forwardly extending member 25, said channel cooperating with a complementary channel 24' on the platform I'I, having a rearwardly extending member 26. When the car I6 is disposed within the shelves, the extension 25 thereof is beneath the extension 26 of channel 24', thereby properly positioning the platform I1' at operating level.
It will be understood that said platform I 'I is supported upon brackets 20 having guides for cooperation with rails I8, and that said car I4' is similarly provided with guides 2'I, which also cooperate with the rails I8 to guide the platform and car in vertical movement.
To move the car I4' from its position within the shelves onto the platform I1', I provide a pusher 4i! having spaced elongated runners 4I, 4 I which slide upon the surface of the shelf I2 and are guided by side rails 42, 42, secured to said shelf. A pull cord 43 rides over a centering roller 44 suitably mounted upon the shelf as illustrated, and is attached to a flange or abutment 45 on the pusher 4f).
A sheave 46 is mounted on suitable brackets on an upright provided on pusher 40, and a counterweight oord 41 is positioned on said roller for securement to the underside of the car I4 as shown in Fig. 11.
Suitable direction-changing sheaves 48, 50 provide for guiding the counterweight cord 41, and insure that the pull exerted by the counterweight 39 is effective on the car I4 near the base thereof.
As appears in Fig. 8, a downward pull on the handle 33 draws the pusher 40 outwardly, thereby urging the car I4' onto the platform I1', which is continually held in proper position by the intertting extensions 25', 26' of channel members 23', 24'. Forward movement of the pusher 40 is halted when the slides 2| of car I4' strike the forward flanges of guide rails I8.
The weight of the counterweight 39 is suitably less than the loaded weight of the car I4 so that when said car is drawn fully outwardly onto the platform I1' the car and platform will descend relatively slowly.
When it is desired to return the platform and car to elevated position, the operator merely pushes upwardly on the platform, whereupon vthe car and platform, aided by the increasing momentum of the fall of the counterweight 39,-rises to the level of the shelf. When the car and'platform have attained the level illustrated in Fig. 8, the downward fall of counterweight 39 will cause the car and the pusher 40 to move rearwardly into position within the shelves I6.
To provide a positive limitation of the upward movement of the platform and car during the return of the same to shelf height, it may be expedient to provide a stop 5I, see Figs. 8 and'9 at the desired location.
It will be observed that the interlock of extensions 25 and 26 in the embodiment of Figs. 1 through '7, and the corresponding extensions 25? and 26 in the embodiment of Figs. 8 through 12, maintain the respective platforms Il or I 'l' at proper operational level. In the first-named embodiment, the maintenance of proper operation.- al level is further insured by the latch spring structure 2l, which remains in locked position until the elements 28, 30, thereof are disengaged by the striking of lug 3| with the free upper end of spring 21.
In the second embodiment, the probable center of gravity of the load within car I4 will be effective to maintain the platform I'l in a level position until such center of gravity is moved on to said platform; the car and platform are restrained from tilting downwardly by the combined effects of the pull of the counterweight 39 and the large area of engagement of the guides of bracket 20' with the rails I8.
In each embodiment, when the car has been drawn fully out onto the platform, the engagement of the rear guides 2| of the respective cars provides a restraining and guiding effect which therefore extends from a position substantially below the level of the platform to the top of the car.
Whereas I have described my invention by reference to specific forms thereof, it will be understood that many changes and modifications may be made provided they do not depart from the scope of the claims.
I claim:
