Will the British Gas tool help?
When most people hear the phrase 'government grant' it instantly conjures up images of mountains of leaflets, forms and paperwork.
So even the offer of lowering your energy bills might not be enough to tempt some people to consider the Green Deal or ECO.
Add to that the fact that most people don't actually know what the schemes offer, and it's no wonder they have thus far been pretty unsuccessful.
As such, British Gas's tool, which helps you to find out more about energy efficiency in the home and savings you can make, could have emerged at just the right time to encourage more people to take advantage of a range of decent insulation options.
Sadly, British Gas seems to have missed an opportunity to educate households as its online tool is a little disappointing.
For example, the limited number of questions mean you are not really given advice specifically relevant to your individual circumstances.
That said, it may save you some time figuring out if you could get funding for any improvements through the ECO, as well as save you the £129 fee you would pay if you did not know you are eligible for a free assessment.

In EditPlus I have the ability to use the file directory and path as input to a custom command. So I could execute a "svn commit", using the path of the current file as the working directory.
Something like this:
{ "keys": ["ctrl+1"], "command": "exec", "args": { "cmd": ["'C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Subversion\\bin\\svn.exe'", "-m: ci"], "shell" : true, "working_dir": "$file_dir" } }
The build system isn't quite as flexible as I'd like. (I'd like to be able to execute this on any type of file whenever I want.)

Would be nice to have an additional option for a Lua-pattern like matching for searches if people don't want to go all the way into Regex - which is significantly harder to use.
Pellet Heat Approaches Liftoff with Residential Consumers
“We’re this far from taking off,” said a speaker at a pellet boiler firm’s recent sales meeting in Portland, Maine, while holding his thumb and index finger two inches apart. At the same time, another major pellet boiler firm in Maine is pounding the television airwaves with a commercial comparing the price of pellet fuel to heating oil, and Maine’s state energy agency recently announced an incentive program whereby up to 50 residential pellet boiler purchasers will receive rebates up to $5,000. The boiler firms and installers hope that this incentive will prove so popular that it will be extended beyond the initial funding.
Speaking at the 2013 Kedel (a Danish pellet boiler) Summit in Portland, former Biomass Thermal Energy Council Chairman Charlie Niebling was asked what it will take for residential pellet boiler sales in Maine and New Hampshire to achieve liftoff. Niebling suggested that increased tension in the Middle East, thereby spiking oil prices, would be an obvious stimulus. Absent such a spike, Niebling stated that while the pellet sector is “poised to significantly expand,” it behooves the industry to undertake a strong education and promotion program.
Other speakers at the meeting cited the need to answer consumer questions about bulk delivery, the long-term price outlook for pellets, the resale value of homes with central pellet heat, and greenhouse gas emissions. A panel of customers speaking at the end of the meeting emphasized that the desire to “get away from oil,” for both economic and environmental reasons, trumped whatever unanswered questions they had about switching to pellets. A secondary reason cited was a desire to spend their fuel dollars in support of Maine’s forest products economy.
Sales staff at the meeting spoke with confidence, noting that the 20-year longevity of oil burners means that every year, five percent of Maine homeowners are in the marketplace for a new heating system. The marketing pitch is “pellets are half the price of oil, and emit one-tenth the greenhouse gas.”
Will Maine be a significant partner in achieving pellet heat liftoff? According to its critics, the outlook among some trustees and staff at the state’s energy agency, Efficiency Maine, is that economic development considerations—the huge multiplier effect of a heating system using a locally produced fuel—are not central to the agency’s mission. In addition, the “insulation uber alles” crowd continues to demand that no home receive funds for a heating system change-out without the building envelope first being secured, a proposition that often leaves the homeowner with only enough funds for a new oil burner.
There are indications that the insulationists’ shrill arguments, threatening legal action if Efficiency Maine does not interpret an ambiguous section of new state law in their favor, are losing sway at the state agency. Also, Efficiency Maine recently made a modest grant to assist the Northern Forest Center’s promising Model Neighborhood project, which incentivizes pellet boiler installations in a concentrated area of homeowners.
At any rate, Efficiency Maine has just announced a wide range of incentives designed to reduce both energy demand and heating costs. Pellet stove purchasers will receive a $250 rebate provided the stove is EPA-approved and makeup air is ducted into the unit. Homeowners installing heat pumps or efficient new gas, propane, or oil furnaces will receive $500 rebates. The first 50 homeowners to install pellet boilers meeting HUD Energy Saver standards—or geothermal heat—will receive a $5,000 rebate, which is approximately the incentive amount that has proved most effective in selling pellet boilers.
Our industry up here obviously hopes that this incentive, sales force enthusiasm, the media advertising being done by one boiler firm—Maine Energy Systems—promoting pellet heat in general, and word-of-mouth recognition of our product quality will get us into a sharply upward flight path.
Remodelling the Shearin Group
Enhancing a house to add value to it is one way of leveraging one’s property, especially in our present volatile economic conditions. One is not only able to get a higher value from selling it but also getting a bigger loan out of it for business purposes or for other expenses. One great bonus, of course, is having the satisfaction and joy of living in a better or even luxuriously renovated home.
Cindy Shearin shares her remodelling projects on her blog through video presentations of the before-ongoing-after kind. And it works just as well or even more than any home-viewing visit to an actual home can.
Using high-definition videography and effective time-lapse photography, Cindy takes us through time as her group goes through remodelling projects of prime properties in South Bay, Los Angeles, CA. It is clear to anyone viewing these videos that with enough investment, a rundown house can be turned around to become an appealing new property worth selling or living in again.
Here is a mini-reality show worth watching and appreciating by homeowners. One’s property can be a source of cash if one is brave enough to consider remodelling. Taking out a loan to do a remodelling project can be made a less daunting task with the help of real estate experts such as Cindy Shearin. And the good thing about it is that even while the process is still ongoing, they might even put your property in their listings as a project-in-the-making.
Anyone planning to pursue a remodelling project will need the help of designers and engineers who will provide ideas for any particular property while considering the optimal cost for the project. Owners who will reuse the property will, of course, suggest their own ideas as to how they want the remodelling will be done. The primary thing to consider is that the property will not be earning back the money put into the process. Hence, one must observe financial discipline and personal restraint.
Remodelling is not a simple choice to make. It is a serious business decision.
Senate Acts on Bill to Delay Flood Insurance Hikes
Bipartisan legislation that would delay flood insurance premium hikes for hundreds of thousands of people living in coastal and low-lying areas cleared its first hurdle in the Senate on Monday.
The 86-13 vote demonstrated that the measure had filibuster-proof support in the chamber, which was likely to pass it in a few days.
The legislation would delay for up to four years premium increases set to phase in next year on homeowners facing whopping premium increases under new flood maps and would allow homeowners with subsidized insurance policies to pass them on to people who buy their homes.
The higher premiums were the result of changes made to the federal flood insurance program less than two years ago — widely praised as long-overdue reforms of the program — that were designed to make it more financially stable and bring insurance rates more in line with the real risk of flooding.
The White House Monday evening issued an official policy statement that failed to endorse the legislation. "Delaying implementation of these reforms would further erode" the program's financial position, the statement said. But it urged relief for economically distressed policyholders.
But the new rates have caused sticker shock for hundreds of thousands of people who could face big premium jumps as flood maps are updated in coming years. And the loss of subsidies when homes are sold has put a damper on the real estate market and threatened home values. Homeowners are seeing estimates that in many cases would force premium hikes of 10 times or more as their homes are judged to be at greater risk of flooding.
"It's had a significant impact in the flood-prone areas," said Ken Baris, a real estate agent in West Orange, N.J. "There's lots of people who are seeing their equity being eaten up."
But Egon Kahl, an agent on Long Beach Island in New Jersey, which was hit hard by Superstorm Sandy, said the real estate market there was humming.
Other reforms, including higher premiums for frequently-flooded properties and on 1.7 million second homes would remain in place.
Clearing the first Senate hurdle put the bill on track for Senate action later in the week. Its future in the House was uncertain at best. Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, opposes the Senate bill but was holding the door open to a more modest measure that would leave more of the 2012 overhaul in place.
At issue is the federal flood insurance program that was established in 1968 and has incurred big losses, most recently with Sandy in 2012. It is more than $24 billion in debt to taxpayers for losses from big storms like Sandy and Hurricane Katrina in 2005.
The 2012 overhaul of the program made several changes to the program, which helps 5.6 million policyholders, 20 percent of whom receive subsidized policies for older homes built before communities joined the flood insurance program. Owners of second homes, frequently-flooded properties and businesses in flood areas would gradually lose their subsidies and pay 25 percent more a year until they reach an actuarially sound rate. Others get to keep their subsidies but can't pass them on when selling their homes.

Autocomplete / Coffeescript, probably general
However, there are four issues which may be general with languages (especially those doing what I presume happens here, which is to autocomplete on identifiers).
1) Numbers. If you type a number e.g. 32 and press TAB to add a comment further on it autocompletes the number, changing it to something else.
Suggest: disable autocomplete or numbers either permanently or as an option.
2) Autocomplete works with a single letter, replacing it sometimes with another one - e.g. press a get A
Suggest: might be same as 3 ?
3) Autocomplete sometimes replaces an identifier with a differently cased one, e.g. you type in field [TAB] and it becomes Field
Suggest: don't change autocomplete if it's the same identifier as the current one with a different case.
4) Autocomplete operates when you have moved onto a line rather than just typed the identifier, e.g. if you move to a line ending in count, positioning the cursor at the end and press [TAB] it sometimes changes it to something else.
Suggest: only have autocomplete if the last character typed was a alphanumeric character, not a cursor movement character ?
What You Need to Know About IPO Investments - Westhill Consulting Jakarta
Westhill Consulting is a market leader in the Financial Services category. Here is a guide to Initial Public Offerings (IPO's) intended to simplify the jargon and remove the fear that IPO's involve higher risk as compared to usual investments.
Westhill Consulting is a reputable investment advisory firm based in Jakarta Indonesia, dedicated to providing you the most advantageous investments based on how you want your portfolio managed for the private middle market.
You might be wondering how you can increase the profits you make from your market investing strategies. If you're searching for the most profitable forms of investing that are available today, you should definitely investigate the possibilities of using Initial Public Offering (IPO) investments.
A simple description of an IPO includes the fact that you're buying a business that is just entering the open marketplace. The moment the IPO is released to the public is the first time anyone has the ability to buy the company openly, and this will surely give you a good idea on where the stock itself resides when it comes to the value of the offering. You can wage it is preparing for a large rise in its value because they are just releasing their stock to the public.
Though most of the Initial Public Offering stocks skyrocket after they are first released, you must keep in mind that they are hardly a definite investment. Because of this, there are several factors you must definitely examine before you place your capital into this type of investment.
One of the first factors you must take into consideration before investing into the stock you are interested in is the basic fact that once the stock is available on the market you can't guess if there will be a great deal demand or a total lack.
Because of this, you must do your best to ascertain every bit of information available about the company before making a purchase.
As you comb the market for the best IPOs available today, you must consider the fact that IPOs are usually offered only to the market when a company plans on expansion. There are other instances where companies only want to increase their ability to borrow capital, but IPOs are mostly released to increase the amount of funds they have available for expansion plans.
It may look like a company which is preparing to expand is a sure bet on the stock market. However, that is not really the case. IPO stocks are usually considered as high-risk investments. That is why if you want to secure your investments to a degree, you must explore the overall performance of the company's operations in the long run.
When you have analyzed the essentials of the company you are interested on, you must also try to guess where the capital generated from the IPO will be used by the company. If you think the company's only choice is to put their capital into expansion activities, you can be sure that the stock value will increase over time because of the expanding capabilities of the business operation. As you examine the essentials of the company and estimate where the capital will be going once the IPO is sold to the public, you can make a reasonable evaluation of how the stocks are going to fare in the future. Being one of the top advisory firms in the industry, we gain the confidence of our clients by acting with integrity on all our business decisions.
