Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R9J0J1 - A key worker, critical worker or essential worker is a public-sector or private-sector employee who is considered to provide an essential service. The term has been used[when?] in the United Kingdom in the context of workers who may find it difficult to buy property in the area where they work. The term was also used by the UK government during announcements regarding school shutdowns invoked in response to the COVID-19 pandemic to indicate parents whose occupations entitled them to continue sending their children to schools which were otherwise shut down by government policy, as well as teachers and LSAs at those schools.
A key worker is a public sector or private sector employee who is considered to provide an essential service.
Key workers jobs that cannot be done remotely:-
Energy. Many of the jobs in this field, which includes mining and oil extraction, cannot be done remotely.
First responders. These are the people communities depend on in emergencies, such as paramedics, firefighters and police.
Education and child care. Making sure children can grow academically even during a pandemic means vaccinating teachers, their support staff, and daycare employees.
Agriculture and food production. Many of the outbreaks at the onset of the pandemic were in meatpacking facilities and other food-processing plants.
Critical retail. (i.e. grocery stores, hardware stores, auto mechanics etc.). Keeping supermarket employees safe makes it possible for others to stay fed while restaurants are temporarily shut down.
Critical trades. (i.e. construction workers, electricians, plumbers, etc.)
Manufacturing. These jobs (producing goods) cannot be done remotely.
Corrections workers. Prisons are the types of closed facilities where the coronavirus can spread quickly.
Postal Service workers. This group makes sure vital packages get delivered, along with providing other key services.
Public transit workers.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2KG43MD - London, Midland and Scottish Railway (LMS) Jubilee Class 5596 (BR number 45596) Bahamas is a preserved British steam locomotive. It is named after The Bahamas.
The locomotive was built as a standard Jubilee Class in 1934 by the North British Locomotive Company for the London Midland & Scottish Railway (LMS). In May 1961, under the ownership of British Railways, Bahamas was the recipient of several experimental modifications aimed at improving the steam engine. In July 1966, Bahamas was withdrawn from traffic. A preservation society was founded and raised the money to purchase it from British Rail to prevent it from being scrapped. After repairs by the Hunslet Engine Company in Leeds Bahamas was transported to Dinting Railway Museum, near Glossop, Derbyshire.
After British Rail's ban on steam locomotives ended, Bahamas was permitted to run on the national rail network. In October 1972, Bahamas hauled its first excursion special, proving there was public demand. A year later, it was removed from service when its boiler certificate expired. In 1988, it returned to steam after overhaul. It was withdrawn from mainline use after its ticket expired. Between 1997 and 2013, Bahamas alternated between public displays and storage. Another overhaul began during 2013 and the locomotive returned to mainline operations in early 2019

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K3082P - Crossley Brothers was set up in 1867 by brothers Francis (1839“97) and William J.(1844“1911). Francis, with help from his uncle, bought the engineering business of John M Dunlop at Great Marlborough Street in Manchester city centre, including manufacturing pumps, presses, and small steam engines.
In 1869 they had the foresight to acquire the UK and world (except German) rights to the patents of Otto and Langden of Cologne for the new gas fueled atmospheric internal combustion engine and in 1876 these rights were extended to the famous Otto four-stroke cycle engine. The changeover to four stroke engines was remarkably rapid with the last atmospheric engines being made in 1877.
The business flourished. In 1881, Crossley Brothers became a private limited company (i.e. Crossley Brothers Ltd.), and then in 1882 it moved to larger premises in Pottery Lane, Openshaw, in eastern Manchester.
Crossley Brothers built diesel engines for stationary, marine and locomotive use. There was a wide range of engines from six to 3200 horsepower (Crossley) and up to 9000 horsepower (Crossley-Pielstick).
Their marine engines had a reputation for durability and reliability.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JTYF8T - Save up to 8% in gas use, by turning down the 'flow' temperature, a tip from Money Saving expert to reduce fuel bill and poverty
A recent report by the Heating and Hot Water Council (HHIC)* found that households can save around 6-8% in gas just by turning down the heating flow temperature on their condensing combi boiler. To be clear, this is not turning down your thermostat.
Nearly all combi boilers are not optimised to run as efficiently as they should, which increases household gas bills and emits more carbon. Reducing the operating temperature for heating will help your boiler run more efficiently without reducing your comfort.
You will need to have a condensing combi boiler, i.e. a boiler that produces your heating and hot water. You will have a combi boiler if you do not have a hot water cylinder. It will definitely be a condensing boiler if it was fitted in the last 16 years. A condensing boiler will also have a white plastic pipe underneath the boiler (although it can be grey or black).
Most combi boilers have two dials: one for heating (usually with a little radiator icon over it) and one for hot water (with a little tap icon). Some only have one dial but it is usually for the heating flow temperatures. Some dials do not provide the actual temperature setting. Some like Worcester are numbered 1-6, some have dashed lines and others a curved line of increasing thickness. Some user manuals do provide additional information.

The photograph fixes materials and construction within the recorded location at one identifiable point, providing a benchmark against closure or conversion. Other connected aspects are historic streetscape, community identity, urban change, social landscape, built heritage, archival record, conservation interest, and local history. References to right, footpath, culture, public, and Chester give the picture a strong period identity and tie it closely to the named subject. By fixing the subject within the recorded location, the image preserves more than the headline object or building: it records part of the locality's everyday history. Its period value extends to redevelopment pressure and using existing buildings rather than demolishing them as part of the longer story of the recorded location. The location additionally provides evidence for embodied carbon and the contrast between historic fabric and modern development when considered against later change at the recorded location. A further contemporary connection is planning control and preserving local identity during urban change without losing the local specificity of the recorded location.

Additionally, it houses the penthouse condominium residence of businessman, real estate developer, and former U.S. president Donald Trump, who developed the building and named it after himself. Several members of the Trump family also live, or have resided, in the building. The tower stands on a plot where the flagship store of department-store chain Bonwit Teller was formerly located.
Der Scutt of Poor, Swanke, Hayden & Connell designed Trump Tower, and Trump and the Equitable Life Assurance Company (now the AXA Equitable Life Insurance Company) developed it. Although it is in one of Midtown Manhattan's special zoning districts, the tower was approved because it was to be built as a mixed-use development. Trump was permitted to add more stories to the tower in return for additional retail space and for providing privately owned public space on the ground floor, the lower level, and two outdoor terraces. There were controversies during construction, including the destruction of historically important sculptures from the Bonwit Teller store
Trump's alleged underpaying of contractors
and a lawsuit that Trump filed because the tower was not tax-exempt.
Construction on the building began in 1979. The atrium, apartments, offices, and stores opened on a staggered schedule from February to November 1983. At first, there were few tenants willing to move into the commercial and retail spaces
the residential units were sold out within months of opening. After Trump's 2016 presidential campaign and subsequent election, the tower saw large increases in visitation, though security concerns required the area around the tower to be patrolled for several years.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2AT9EK0 - . An authentic period view of Canada in 2015, showing a subject whose value extends beyond the immediate scene into local history and changing social context. The photograph records Canadian Stamp, Canada Stamp, Canada Post,used stamp, Canada, 30c,30cent, Terry Fox, Marathon of hope,running,runner. The scene additionally carries associations with bricks-and-mortar retail, conservation architecture, consumer retail, historic commercial architecture, retail property, historic townscape, everyday life, urban commerce, archival record, customer footfall, changing land use, cityscape history, period detail, and regional identity. From a 2025-onward perspective, the scene also connects with online shopping, changing footfall and the rapid turnover of shopfronts and trading names. In the mid-2020s, energy retrofit and heritage conservation keep the subject current, particularly through keeping older buildings useful without erasing their character. From an archival perspective, the scene keeps a record of a particular stage in the life of the location at Canada. The setting also brings in commercial streetscape, public realm, built heritage, local trading, contemporary social history, period streetscape, historic context, and high-street commerce. References to Terry, runner, Stamp, Marathon, and Canadian help fix the photograph to its own subject and period rather than reducing it to a generic view. The surrounding context at Canada matters because ordinary visual details often provide the strongest evidence of how a place actually looked and functioned. Another useful connection is online shopping and the rapid turnover of shopfronts and trading names as part of the longer story of Canada. The scene further reflects maintenance costs and the role of distinctive architecture in local identity when considered against later change at Canada. The frame retains a trace of local identity within the wider story of Canada.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DA622W - . Dr Who, image on BBC media city studios, BBC Quay House at UK Salford Quays , Manchester, England, UK, M50 2QH. Photographed on 16 June 2013. The recorded location is Quays, MediaCityUK, Salford, Manchester M50 2QH. MediaCity at Salford Quays opened in 2011 as a major new base for broadcasting, digital and creative industries, including large BBC operations and later ITV and many technology businesses. It grew from the regeneration of the former Manchester Docks, which had declined after the containerisation era. In 2026 Salford City Council describes MediaCity and the Quays as entering another phase of expansion, with plans for the district to grow substantially and add more homes, jobs and public spaces. Salford Quays occupies the former Manchester Docks, once the inland terminus of the Manchester Ship Canal. After the docks closed in 1982, large-scale regeneration transformed derelict wharves into housing, offices, cultural venues and eventually MediaCity. Salford City Council now describes the Quays as one of Europe's most successful waterfront regeneration projects, and in 2026 further growth is planned around new homes, technology, culture and improved public space. Looking at the subject's development, broadcasting has repeatedly reshaped where creative work happens, from radio studios and regional television centres to large digital production campuses
BBC structures, programme graphics and studio complexes document the infrastructure behind news, entertainment and public-service broadcasting. Looking at the subject's development, architecture records the priorities of the period in which a building was designed: materials, ornament, scale and planning can reveal changing technologies, social status and commercial use
Later alterations and changes of tenant add further layers, so a single façade can embody several phases of local history. Alternative search wording includes television production, TV studio, and digital media.

'Jamie's Cryin' is a song by Van Halen from their 1978 debut album, Van Halen. The song was written and recorded live during the three week sessions for the album. The song discusses a woman who meets a man that only wants a one-night stand. She turns him down, but is sad for what might have been. Drummer Alex Van Halen identifies this song as his least favorite Van Halen song.
For recording of the song vocalist David Lee Roth wanted to go for a cleaner 'poppier' sound and quit smoking and drinking for a week before the final version was to be recorded. The band noticed the difference on Roth's vocals on what was to be the album version and Ted Templeman ordered him outside to smoke a cigarette. He smoked one, and drank half a bottle of whiskey, returning half an hour later and recording the track with more huskiness to his voice in about 45 minutes.
Eddie Van Halen's melodic line in the song's chorus bears a strong resemblance to the guitar melody in Lalo Schifrin's 1976 jazz instrumental 'Baia.'
'Jamie's Cryin'' was sampled in the 1988 single ' Wild Thing' by Tone Loc.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy D8HTFW - . Liverpool Pools Building 1995 with dog and man. Image toned blue. Photographed on 15 October 1995. The recorded location is Old Littlewood's Pools Building, edge Lane Liverpool, Merseyside, England UK L13 5TF. Taken with Infra Red Kodak HE film. Historically, historic and contemporary architecture can be read as a record of investment, planning and changing urban functions
Civic, commercial, industrial and residential buildings each contribute to the character of a townscape, particularly where older structures are adapted rather than demolished. Historically, alternative photographic processes can make familiar subjects appear unfamiliar
Black-and-white and sepia evoke older photographic traditions, selective colour isolates a chosen detail, and infrared can render foliage and skies with striking tonal separation. In 2026, the reuse of existing buildings is increasingly discussed alongside conservation, embodied carbon and town-centre regeneration
Images of older façades and converted premises can therefore illustrate both architectural heritage and the practical pressures of adapting buildings for new uses. In 2026, these effects can be produced digitally with ease, but their usefulness still depends on the underlying subject and the visual information retained
Older examples also document the aesthetics of an era when strong selective colour and infrared processing were especially popular in creative digital photography. The historical context is that architecture records the priorities of the period in which a building was designed: materials, ornament, scale and planning can reveal changing technologies, social status and commercial use
Later alterations and changes of tenant add further layers, so a single façade can embody several phases of local history. Further editorial search language includes building façade, historic building, built environment, streetscape, architectural detail, period architecture, adaptive reuse, and urban design.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JN6ECW - A new criminal offence to tackle dognapping and crack down on the heart-breaking issue of pet theft has moved a step closer.
Under government plans, people who steal a canine companion could face up to five years in jail if convicted of dog abduction.
The offence is being added to the Kept Animals Bill, which is currently making its way through the Commons, after a recommendation by the government's pet theft taskforce in September.
The taskforce, launched in May, looked into a reported rise in pet thefts during the pandemic. More than 2,000 such incidents were reported to the police in 2020.
Dognapping remains the biggest issue, with around seven in 10 incidents of pet theft recorded by police involving dogs, according to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra).
The move has been welcomed by leaders from animal rights organisations.
Chief veterinary officer Dr Christine Middlemiss said it is an important step forward with dogs being treated as sentient beings rather than merely property.

The recorded location is Britain , UK. In February 2022 new barcoded definitive design stamps were introduced. The rectangular (matrix) codes, unique to each stamp, use a trademarked coding designed to prevent counterfeiting and to enable tracking of letters, and to enable correspondents to link digital content to their stamps. Until 2022 any 1st and 2nd class and decimal currency postage stamps could be used. old Machin and country definitive design stamps without barcodes are no longer valid from 31st July 2023, with old ones exchangeable for barcoded ones indefinitely through a process which Royal Mail calls the Stamp Swap Out scheme. Special Stamps with pictures and Christmas Stamps without a barcode continued to be valid Stamps are exchanged like-for-like: a 1st class stamp will be replaced by a 1st class one, not 95p. In relation to design story.htm Target=_Blank>history, historical context shows that material culture includes the ordinary products people bought, used, collected or displayed
Small manufactured objects can reveal national identity, advertising, technology and popular taste in ways that formal records do not. For the story of packaging waste, it is useful to note that packaging waste illustrates the practical side of environmental policy
Products combining plastic, foil, paper or food residue can be difficult to process and reveal the limits of systems designed around simpler material streams. The historical setting for collectable is that printed and graphic ephemera are highly effective dating evidence
Tickets, stamps, posters, comics, manuals and vouchers combine wording, typography, colour and branding in forms that are often discarded after use. As of 2026, the position for design history is that online resale, nostalgia and interest in vintage design have made many ordinary twentieth-century objects active.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JTJYMB - Open letter on LTNs, from Leader of the Council, Cllr Russ Bowden
The creation of Low Traffic Neighbourhoods is supported, promoted and actively funded by the current government and they are something that we have given a lot of detailed thought to over recent years.
Since 2018, when we undertook one of the largest listening exercises we've ever done to help form the Central 6 Regeneration Masterplan, we have been considering ways to address a key issue that has been consistently raised to us “ there is too much traffic, going too quickly, along residential streets
Health benefits of walking and cycling are well-known and widely acknowledged. They include better physical and mental health, lower rates of cancer, heart disease and stroke, and, ultimately, less overall pressure on health services. In some areas of the UK, local NHS Trusts are in fact paying for LTNs to be installed, as they are such a powerful tool for improving public health. Improving health is a major challenge for us in Warrington
Broad consultation on the Central 6 Regeneration Masterplan saw concerns being raised from Westy,Orford & Latchford, including a petition - read more at https://www.warrington.gov.uk/news/low-traffic-neighbourhoods
