| Ban on football, cricket and netball as cops reined in to fight crime
Police officers have been banned from playing all sport outside the Police Service as Police Commissioner Trevor Paul moves to harness all his resources in the fight against crime. Paul has instructed that some 200 police officers who represent the Police Service in various sporting disciplines to desist from participating in all national league competitions, insisting that they are much more needed to arrest the criminal elements. Sources said yesterday that Paul issued specific instructions that in effect suspended all teams representing the Police Service from participating in any competitions organised by organisations outside of the Police Service with immediate effect. "We are still awaiting official word for it to be read in the official departmental orders," one source said, adding that many of the police officers involved do not belong to specialist units such as the Homicide Bureau.
'Bonfire of the quangos' described as a 'damp squib'
He said that it would save £25M, it's just the Scotsman's shocking journalism that try's to omit this fact....that's £25M without any compulsory redundancies.....There will be more efficiency savings likely from the review of office space used by the various bodies being axed..... the money isn't going into tax cuts though, it's being put back into resourcing the remaining bodies properly.... .
Tax tip: The deductibility of home interest
I'm assuming you will be using this house as your primary personal residency and you can itemize deductions instead of using the standard deduction. To determine whether all of the interest is deductible, you will need to see exactly how the loan proceeds were used. A home mortgage is any loan that is secured by your main home or second home. This would include first and second mortgages, refinanced mortgages, a line of credit and home equity loans. A home includes a house, a condominium, a cooperative, a mobile home, a house trailer, a boat or a similar property that has sleeping, cooking and toilet facilities. You must be legally liable for the loan. You cannot deduct payments you make for someone else if you are not legally liable to make them. The interest you pay on a mortgage on a home other than your main or second home may be deductible if the proceeds of the loan were used for business, investment or other deductible purposes.

FAMILY SERVICE: On Mothering Sunday, March 2, in St Peter's church at 10.30am. This is always a well attended service and gives the children a chance to thank their mothers by presenting them with posies during the service. OFF THE ROAD: Yet again a motorist must have been travelling at speed as they approached the bend on the B2116 near the entrance to Novington Lane last week. Lets hope that the driver, and passengers if there were any, escaped uninjured from the Land Rover that crashed into a field nearby. I have been told that it was Plumpton College students who were in the vehicle and it appears they were very lucky as they were thrown out. N WATCH: As two of my co-ordinators have moved away, the following is an update of co-ordinators for the Hamsey, Cooksbridge and Offham area.
Flavours of Dubai
Then just pick up some burgers with a side order of fries and drinks to go from any of the petrol bunks or food courts on the way home. One thing is for sure you will never go hungry in Dubai. With a range of food to suit all wallets, not to mention a tempting array of cuisines that can leave even the most fussy eater tongue tied, the city is a gourmets paradise. And with the hectic pace of life often leaving us gasping for breath, eating out is no longer a luxury but a necessity not only for the bachelors who crowd restaurants in search of some much needed soul food but even for large families for whom eating out is a way to unwind and spend time together something every woman will vouch is not possible at home with her slaving over the kitchen stove with the husband and kids relaxing in front of the television.
Stamford exec loves to cook for others
Hank Anderson grew up in a kitchen. "My family was in the restaurant business," he begins, describing the Derby eatery where he spent much of his time outside of school.

Delia Smith on How to Cheat at Cooking
Now she is coming back, with a new book, Delia's How to Cheat at Cooking, and a new television series. Once, it seemed Britain couldn't live without Delia. But where will she fit in now, in the mad celebrity circus that is TV cooking, with Jamie getting pukka in the garden, Nigella licking chocolate lasciviously off her fingers, Gordon haranguing anyone in earshot with streams of expletives? Has Delia been forgotten? Not in Norwich, she hasn't. Delia had first-name recognition before any of them, and the cosy familiarity it implies has evidently stuck. 'Hello, Delia…' Fans lean forward to shake her hand as she passes. 'Excuse me, Delia…' Small children proffer match-day programmes and brandish mobile-phone cameras. It was her husband, Michael Wynn-Jones, a life-long Norwich fan, who brought Delia to Carrow Road for her first home game in 1969.
