Emma Malabuyo, of Flower Mound, is headed to Tokyo on Wednesday to potentially compete for Team USA in the Olympic Games.
Malabuyo, 18, qualified as an alternate for the women's gymnastics team at the Olympic Team Trials, coming in eighth place on the unbalanced bars and floor exercise, and ninth place all-around. Before that, in the 2021 U.S. Gymnastics Championships, Malabuyo got sixth place in the balance beam, seventh in unbalanced bars and floor, and fourth place all-around.
Malabuyo has lived in Flower Mound for over seven years and trained at Texas Dreams Gymnastics in Coppell over 30 hours a week while completing high school online. She'll be headed to UCLA for college this fall.
Not surprisingly, Malabuyo's interest in gymnastics began at a young age.
"When I was 3 years old, I was swinging around on the monkey bars, and my parents noticed I was really fast," she said. "I loved doing handstands and I was always flipping around the house, so they put me in gymnastics."
Last year, before the Olympics were postponed a year, Malabuyo was in peak condition and excited for a shot at her first Olympics.
"I was doing really well, in good shape, and my body actually felt a lot better after healing from injuries," she said. "I was so ready and prepared."
But during the year-long delay, Malabuyo had some injuries and more competition in qualifying.
"I couldn't do my most difficult routines this year," she said. "I definitely reached my peak last year."
As an alternate, Malabuyo will be ready to compete in case she is needed in any of the events due to injury or COVID-19 protocols. Malabuyo said that after a few days of training together, the alternates will be kept separate from the team because if a team member tests positive for COVID-19, the entire six-member team will not be allowed to compete and the alternates will be the ones competing.
Malabuyo said she's still excited to go to the Olympics, though she is disappointed that it won't be the usual Olympics experience.
"We're not staying in the Olympic Village, just in a hotel, and we're only going to be at the venue and our hotel rooms," she said. "It does take away from what you want to experience, you want to go look at everyone you can instead of being cooped up in your room most the time, but we all have to deal with it and I'm excited to go to Japan and be with the team."

The Olympics Opening Ceremony is scheduled for July 23, and gymnastic events are scheduled for July 24-29 and Aug. 1-3. Click here for the schedule.

If you didn't already know that Joe Biden supporters are becoming an endangered species, you will now after watching this new CNN clip. A reporter on location at one of the caucus sites in Nevada on Saturday found the single Biden voter who was apparently so lonely that she went to sit and caucus with the Elizabeth Warren voters instead.
CNN reported from a #NevadaCaucus site that ONE (1!) person showed up to caucus for Joe Biden.

She decided to sit with the Warren supporters instead. ?? pic.twitter.com/1Cn23XtkKm
As the reporter explained, for a candidate to be viable at this particular precinct in Sparks, Nevada, he or she needs at least 16 votes. Warren was just shy of viability with 15 votes, so the Biden voter went over with the assist.
It was a similar tragic theme in Iowa earlier this month, as low turnout was recorded for Biden throughout the state.
It's an understatement to say the former VP has had a disastrous start to the 2020 presidential election. He came in fourth in the Iowa Caucus, and an astounding fifth place in the New Hampshire primary, getting upstaged not only by Sens. Bernie Sanders (VT), Elizabeth Warren (MA) and Amy Klobuchar (MN), but by a once obscure mayor from South Bend, Indiana, Pete Buttigieg. Biden was the vice president. It's nearly unrecoverable.
The VP only made matters worse when he decided it would be best to skip town and head to South Carolina to get a head start on that primary, instead of sticking it out, talking to a few more New Hampshire voters - some of whom don't decide until Primary Day - and at least make an appearance at his Tuesday night rally. Instead, he delivered his gaffe-filled concession speech from Columbia, SC, and at his campaign HQ there were reportedly no TVs to broadcast the depressing news out of New Hampshire.
CNN reporter with the Biden campaign in SC says there are no TVs showing the results from New Hampshire lol. #NHprimary

As of Wednesday night, Biden still sounded confident about South Carolina.

Genesis 24
A Wife for Isaac
1Abraham was now old, getting on in years,#24:1 Lit days#Gn 18:11; Jos 13:1; 23:1–2; 1Kg 1:1 and the Lord had blessed him in everything. 2Abraham said to his servant, the elder of his household who managed all he owned, "Place your hand under my thigh,#Gn 47:29; Ex 1:5 3and I will have you swear by the Lord, God of heaven and God of earth, that you will not take a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanites among whom I live,#Gn 26:34,35; 27:46; Dt 7:3; 2Co 6:14 4but will go to my land and my family to take a wife for my son Isaac."
5The servant said to him, "Suppose the woman is unwilling to follow me to this land? Should I have your son go back to the land you came from?"
6Abraham answered him, "Make sure that you don't take my son back there. 7The Lord, the God of heaven,#2Ch 36:23; Ezr 1:2 who took me from my father's house and from my native land,#Gn 12:1 who spoke to me and swore to me, 'I will give this land to your offspring'#24:7 Lit seed#Gn 12:7; 13:15; 15:18; Ex 32:13 — he will send his angel before you,#Gn 16:7; 21:17; 22:11; Ex 23:20,23 and you can take a wife for my son from there. 8If the woman is unwilling to follow you, then you are free from this oath to me,#Jos 2:17–20 but don't let my son go back there." 9So the servant placed his hand under his master Abraham's thigh and swore an oath to him concerning this matter.
10The servant took ten of his master's camels, and with all kinds of his master's goods in hand, he went to Aram-naharaim, to Nahor's town. 11At evening, the time when women went out to draw water, he made the camels kneel beside a well outside the town.
12"Lord, God of my master Abraham," he prayed, "make this happen for me today,#Gn 27:20 and show kindness to my master Abraham. 13I am standing here#Gn 24:43–44 at the spring where the daughters of the men of the town are coming out to draw water. 14Let the girl to whom I say, 'Please lower your water jug so that I may drink,' and who responds, 'Drink, and I'll water your camels also' — let her be the one you have appointed for your servant Isaac. By this I will know that you have shown kindness to my master."
15Before he had finished speaking, there was Rebekah — daughter of Bethuel son of Milcah,#Gn 11:29; 22:23 the wife of Abraham's brother Nahor — coming with a jug on her shoulder. 16Now the girl was very beautiful,#Gn 12:11; 26:7; 29:17 a virgin — no man had been intimate with her. She went down to the spring, filled her jug, and came up. 17Then the servant ran to meet her and said, "Please let me have a little water from your jug."
18She replied, "Drink, my lord." She quickly lowered her jug to her hand and gave him a drink. 19When she had finished giving him a drink, she said, "I'll also draw water for your camels until they have had enough to drink."#24:19 Lit they are finished drinking 20She quickly emptied her jug into the trough and hurried to the well again to draw water. She drew water for all his camels 21while the man silently watched her to see whether or not the Lord had made his journey a success.
22As the camels finished drinking, the man took a gold ring weighing half a shekel, and for her wrists two bracelets weighing ten shekels of gold. 23"Whose daughter are you?" he asked. "Please tell me, is there room in your father's house for us to spend the night?"
24She answered him, "I am the daughter of Bethuel son of Milcah, whom she bore to Nahor." 25She also said to him, "We have plenty of straw and feed and a place to spend the night."
26Then the man knelt low, worshiped the Lord,#Ex 4:31 27and said, "Blessed be the Lord, the God of my master Abraham, who has not withheld his kindness and faithfulness from my master.#Ru 2:20; Ezr 9:9; Neh 9:17 As for me, the Lord has led me on the journey to the house of my master's relatives."
28The girl ran and told her mother's household about these things. 29Now Rebekah had a brother named Laban,#Gn 25:20; 28:2; 29:5 and Laban ran out to the man at the spring. 30As soon as he had seen the ring and the bracelets on his sister's wrists, and when he had heard his sister Rebekah's words — "The man said this to me!" — he went to the man. He was standing there by the camels at the spring.
31Laban said, "Come, you who are blessed by the Lord.#Gn 26:29; Jdg 17:2; Ru 3:10 Why are you standing out here? I have prepared the house and a place for the camels." 32So the man came to the house, and the camels were unloaded.#Gn 43:24; Jdg 19:21 Straw and feed were given to the camels, and water was brought to wash his feet and the feet of the men with him.
33A meal was set before him, but he said, "I will not eat until I have said what I have to say."
So Laban said, "Please speak."
34"I am Abraham's servant," he said. 35"The Lord has greatly blessed my master, and he has become rich. He has given him flocks and herds, silver and gold, male and female slaves, and camels and donkeys. 36Sarah, my master's wife, bore a son to my master in her#24:36 Sam, LXX read his old age,#Gn 21:2 and he has given him everything he owns.#Gn 25:5 37My master put me under this oath: 'You will not take a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanites in whose land I live 38but will go to my father's family and to my clan to take a wife for my son.' 39But I said to my master, 'Suppose the woman will not come back with me?' 40He said to me, 'The Lord before whom I have walked#Gn 17:1; 1Sm 2:30; 1Kg 2:4; 8:23; 2Kg 20:3; Ps 116:9 will send his angel with you and make your journey a success, and you will take a wife for my son from my clan and from my father's family. 41Then you will be free from my oath if you go to my family and they do not give her to you — you will be free from my oath.'
42"Today when I came to the spring, I prayed: Lord, God of my master Abraham, if only you will make my journey successful! 43I am standing here at a spring. Let the young woman#24:43 Or the virgin who comes out to draw water, and I say to her, 'Please let me drink a little water from your jug,' 44and who responds to me, 'Drink, and I'll draw water for your camels also' — let her be the woman the Lord has appointed for my master's son.
45"Before I had finished praying silently,#1Sm 1:13 there was Rebekah coming with her jug on her shoulder, and she went down to the spring and drew water. So I said to her, 'Please let me have a drink.' 46She quickly lowered her jug from her shoulder and said, 'Drink, and I'll water your camels also.' So I drank, and she also watered the camels. 47Then I asked her, 'Whose daughter are you? ' She responded, 'The daughter of Bethuel son of Nahor, whom Milcah bore to him.' So I put the ring on her nose#Ezk 16:11–12 and the bracelets on her wrists. 48Then I knelt low, worshiped the Lord, and blessed the Lord, the God of my master Abraham, who guided me on the right way to take the granddaughter of my master's brother for his son. 49Now, if you are going to show kindness and faithfulness to my master,#Gn 47:29; Jos 2:14 tell me; if not, tell me, and I will go elsewhere."#24:49 Lit go to the right or to the left
50Laban and Bethuel answered, "This is from the Lord; we have no choice in the matter.#24:50 Lit we cannot say to you anything bad or good#Gn 31:24,29; 2Sm 13:22 51Rebekah is here in front of you. Take her and go, and let her be a wife for your master's son, just as the Lord has spoken."
52When Abraham's servant heard their words, he bowed to the ground before the Lord. 53Then he brought out objects of silver and gold, and garments, and gave them to Rebekah. He also gave precious gifts to her brother and her mother. 54Then he and the men with him ate and drank and spent the night.
When they got up in the morning, he said, "Send me to my master."
55But her brother and mother said, "Let the girl stay with us for about ten days. Then she#24:55 Or you can go."
56But he responded to them, "Do not delay me, since the Lord has made my journey a success. Send me away so that I may go to my master."
57So they said, "Let's call the girl and ask her opinion."#24:57 Lit mouth
58They called Rebekah and said to her, "Will you go with this man?"
She replied, "I will go." 59So they sent away their sister Rebekah with the one who had nursed and raised her,#24:59 Lit with her wet nurse; Gn 35:8#Gn 35:8 and Abraham's servant and his men.
60They blessed Rebekah, saying to her:
Our sister, may you become
thousands upon ten thousands.#Gn 17:16
May your offspring possess
the city gates of their#24:60 Lit his enemies.#Gn 22:17
61Then Rebekah and her female servants got up, mounted the camels, and followed the man. So the servant took Rebekah and left.
62Now Isaac was returning from Beer-lahai-roi,#24:62 = A Well of the Living One Who Sees Me#Gn 16:14; 25:11 for he was living in the Negev region. 63In the early evening Isaac went out to walk#24:63 Or pray, or meditate; Hb obscure in the field, and looking up he saw camels coming. 64Rebekah looked up, and when she saw Isaac, she got down from her camel 65and asked the servant, "Who is that man in the field coming to meet us?"
The servant answered, "It is my master." So she took her veil and covered herself. 66Then the servant told Isaac everything he had done.
67And Isaac brought her into the tent of his mother Sarah and took Rebekah to be his wife. Isaac loved her, and he was comforted after his mother's death.#Gn 23:1–2

Genesis 24
1 Now Abraham was old and of many days. And the Lord had blessed him in all things.
2 And he said to the elder servant of his house, who was in charge of all that he had: "Place your hand under my thigh,
3 so that I may make you swear by the Lord, the God of heaven and earth, that you will not take a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanites, among whom I live.
4 But that you will proceed to my land and kindred, and from there take a wife for my son Isaac."
5 The servant responded, "If the woman is not willing to come with me into this land, must I lead your son back to the place from which you departed?"
6 And Abraham said: "Beware that you never lead my son back to that place.
7 The Lord God of heaven, who took me from my father's house, and from the land of my nativity, who spoke to me and swore to me, saying, 'To your offspring I will give this land,' himself will send his Angel before you, and you will take from there a wife for my son.
8 But if the woman is not willing to follow you, you will not be held by the oath. Only do not lead my son back to that place."
9 Therefore, the servant placed his hand under the thigh of Abraham, his lord, and he swore to him on his word.
10 And he took ten camels from his lord's herd, and he went forth, carrying with him things from all of his goods. And he set out, and continued on, to the city of Nahor, in Mesopotamia.
11 And when he had made the camels lie down outside of the town, near a well of water, in the evening, at the time when women are accustomed to go out to draw water, he said:
12 "O Lord, the God of my lord Abraham, meet with me today, I beg you, and show mercy to my lord Abraham.
13 Behold, I stand near the fountain of water, and the daughters of the inhabitants of this city will go forth to draw water.
14 Therefore, the girl to whom I will say, 'Tip your pitcher, so that I may drink,' and she will respond, 'Drink. In fact, I will give your camels a drink also,' the same one is she whom you have prepared for your servant Isaac. And by this, I will understand that you have shown mercy to my lord."
15 But he had not yet completed these words within himself, when, behold, Rebekah went out, the daughter of Bethuel, son of Milcah, the wife of Nahor, the brother of Abraham, having a pitcher on her shoulder.
16 She was an exceedingly elegant girl, and a most beautiful virgin, and unknown by man. And she descended to the spring, and she filled her pitcher, and then was returning.
17 And the servant ran to meet her, and he said, "Provide me with a little water to drink from your pitcher."
18 And she responded, "Drink, my lord." And she quickly brought down the pitcher on her arm, and she gave him a drink.
19 And after he drank, she added, "In fact, I will draw water for your camels also, until they all drink."
20 And pouring out the pitcher into the troughs, she ran back to the well to draw water; and having drawn, she gave it to all the camels.
21 But he was contemplating her silently, wanting to know whether the Lord had caused his journey to prosper or not
22 Then, after the camels drank, the man took out gold earrings, weighing two shekels, and the same number of bracelets, ten shekels in weight.
23 And he said to her: "Whose daughter are you? Tell me, is there any place in your father's house to lodge?"
24 She responded, "I am the daughter of Bethuel, the son of Milcah, to whom she gave birth for Nahor."
25 And she continued, saying, "There is very much straw and hay with us, and a spacious place to stay."
26 The man bowed himself down, and he adored the Lord,
27 saying, "Blessed be the Lord, the God of my lord Abraham, who has not taken away his mercy and truth from my lord, and who has led me on a direct journey to the house of the brother of my lord."
28 And so the girl ran, and she reported all that she had heard in the house of her mother.
29 Now Rebekah had a brother, named Laban, who went out quickly to the man, where the spring was.
30 And when he had seen the earrings and bracelets in his sister's hands, and he had heard all the words being repeated, "This is what the man spoke to me," he came to the man who stood by the camels and near the spring of water,
31 and he said to him: "Enter, O blessed of the Lord. Why do you stand outside? I have prepared the house, and a place for the camels."
32 And he brought him into his guest quarters. And he unharnessed the camels, and he distributed straw and hay, and water to wash his feet and that of the men who arrived with him.
33 And bread was set out in his sight. But he said, "I will not eat, until I have spoken my words." He answered him, "Speak."
34 Then he said: "I am the servant of Abraham.
35 And the Lord has blessed my lord greatly, and he has become great. And he has given him sheep and oxen, silver and gold, men servants and women servants, camels and donkeys.
36 And Sarah, the wife of my lord, has given birth to a son for my lord in her old age, and he has given him all that he had.
37 And my lord made me swear, saying: 'You shall not take a wife for my son from the Canaanites, in whose land I dwell.
38 But you shall travel to my father's house, and you shall take a wife of my own kindred for my son.'
39 But truly, I answered my lord, 'What if the woman is not willing to come with me?'
40 'The Lord,' he said, 'in whose sight I walk, will send his Angel with you, and he will direct your way. And you shall take a wife for my son from my own kindred and from my father's house.
41 But you will be innocent of my curse, if, when you will arrive at my close relatives, they will not grant this to you.'
42 And so, today I arrived at the well of water, and I said: 'O Lord, the God of my lord Abraham, if you have directed my way, in which I now walk,
43 behold, I stand next to the well of water, and the virgin, who will go forth to draw water, will hear from me, "Give me a little water to drink from your pitcher."
44 And she will say to me, "You drink, and I will also draw for your camels." Let the same be the woman, whom the Lord has prepared for the son of my lord.'
45 And while I thought over these things silently within myself, Rebekah appeared, arriving with a pitcher, which she carried on her shoulder. And she descended to the spring and drew water. And I said to her, 'Give me a little to drink.'
46 And she quickly let down the pitcher from her arm, and said to me, 'You drink, and to your camels I will also distribute drinking water.' I drank, and she watered the camels.
47 And I questioned her, saying, 'Whose daughter are you?' And she responded, 'I am the daughter of Bethuel, the son of Nahor, whom Milcah bore to him.' And so, I hung the earrings on her, to adorn her face, and I put the bracelets on her hands.
48 And falling prostrate, I adored the Lord, blessing the Lord, the God of my lord Abraham, who has led me along the straight path so as to take the daughter of my lord's brother to his son.
49 For this reason, if you would act according to mercy and truth with my lord, tell me so. But if it pleases you otherwise, say that to me also, so that I may go either to the right, or to the left."
50 And Laban and Bethuel responded: "A word has proceeded from the Lord. We are not able to speak anything else to you, beyond what pleases him.
51 Lo, Rebekah is in your sight. Take her and continue on, and let her be the wife of the son of your lord, just as the Lord has spoken."
52 When Abraham's servant had heard this, falling down to the ground, he adored the Lord.
53 And bringing forth vessels of silver and gold, as well as garments, he gave them to Rebekah as a tribute. Likewise, he offered gifts to her brothers and her mother.
54 And a banquet began, and they feasted and drank together, and they lodged there. And rising up in the morning, the servant said, "Release me, so that I may go to my lord."
55 And her brothers and mother responded, "Let the girl remain for at least ten days with us, and after that, she will continue on."
56 "Do not be willing," he said, "to delay me, for the Lord has directed my way. Release me, so that I may journey to my lord."
57 And they said, "Let us call the girl, and ask her will."
58 And when, having been called, she arrived, they wanted to know, "Will you go with this man?" And she said, "I will go."
59 Therefore, they released her and her nurse, and the servant of Abraham and his companions,
60 wishing prosperity for their sister, by saying: "You are our sister. May you increase to thousands of thousands. And may your offspring possess the gates of their enemies."
61 And so, Rebekah and her maids, riding upon camels, followed the man, who quickly returned to his lord.
62 Then, at the same time, Isaac was walking along the way that leads to the well, whose name is: 'of the One who lives and who sees.' For he dwelt in the southern land.
63 And he had gone out to meditate in the field, as daylight was now declining. And when he had lifted up his eyes, he saw camels advancing from afar.
64 Likewise, Rebekah, having seen Isaac, descended from the camel.
65 And she said to the servant, "Who is that man who advances to meet us through the field?" And he said to her, "That is my lord." And so, quickly taking up her cloak, she covered herself.
66 Then the servant explained to Isaac all that he had done.
67 And he led her into the tent of Sarah his mother, and he accepted her as wife. And he loved her so very much, that it tempered the sorrow which befell him at his mother's death.

The D23 event this weekend has brought more news regarding the return of entertainment to Walt Disney World in addition to some new additions during the World's Most Magical Celebration. Thanks to this event, and Disney Park's Blog, we have a lot of news regarding new, returning, and revamped experiences for guests.
It was recently announced that a reimagined version of the "Finding Nemo: The Musical" will return to Theater in the Wild at Animal Kingdom Park. Today, Disney announced more details regarding the updated show. The new musical will be called "Finding Nemo: The Big Blue…and Beyond." It will be set during the time frame of the Finding Dory movie and guests who take a seat at the show will find themselves at the Marine Life Institute. Many beloved songs from the original will be included (I'm hoping to hear "Go With the Flow"). Look for the new Nemo musical to begin in 2022.
Fantasmic! is also returning to Disney World in 2022 and will incorporate a new sequence with live performers, stunts, special effects, and more.
DISNEY ON BROADWAY is coming back to the EPCOT International Festival of the Arts with a great lineup of artists. The festival is set for January 14- February 21, 2022.
Live entertainment is returning to the front of Cinderella Castle at Magic Kingdom Park in early 2022. "Mickey's Magical Friendship Faire" will incorporate both favorite scenes from the previous show as well as new additions. New features include sequences from Frozen, Tangled, and The Princess and the Frog, a new opening and finale with Mickey and friends with his new EARidecent outfits, and a new original song, "Where the Magic Feels Like Home."
With the reopening of Disney Parks, cavalcades have become a big part of guests' experiences and a way for favorite characters to be visible around the parks. Later this winter, Disney will introduce a new cavalcade, the Disney Adventure Friends Cavalcade. This lineup of characters, also the most of any cavalcade to date, will be embarking on a journey throughout the park. Be on the lookout for Nick and Judy from Zootopia, King Louie and Baloo from The Jungle Book, José and Panchito from The Three Caballeros, Miguel from Coco, Merida, Moana, The Incredibles, and more.
Also returning in 2022, the Festival of Fantasy parade will once again fill the Magic Kingdom with its vibrant colors and characters.
We are excited to see the return of some of the much-loved and much-missed entertainment as well as the revamping of some of these experiences as well.

TOTAL knee arthroplasty is one of the most common lower extremity surgeries performed in the United States for progressive pain caused by severe arthritis. Anesthetic management for postoperative pain includes intermittent intravenous opioids and patient-controlled analgesia as well as peripheral nerve blockade. Although peripheral nerve blocks have allowed for a reduction of opioid systemic side effects, perioperative nerve injury can be a distressing complication. Anesthetic- or surgical-related etiologies should be investigated, and patient-specific risk factors such as preexisting neuropathy, diabetes mellitus, extremes of body habitus, male gender, and advanced age1taken into consideration.
Case Scenario
Preoperative Management
A 60-yr-old, 104-kg, 71-inch-tall man presented for a left total knee arthroplasty for degenerative joint disease. His medical history included hypertension, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, gout, and a 40-pack-year smoking history. His home medications included naproxen, atenolol, and allopurinol. Naproxen had been discontinued 1 week before surgery. Results of preoperative neurologic exam were normal. Examination by the orthopedic surgeon noted the absence of a valgus deformity or flexion contracture.
In the preoperative holding area, sciatic and femoral nerve catheters were placed for postoperative pain management. Before placement of the blocks, 100 μg fentanyl and 2 mg midazolam were administered intravenously. With the patient lying on his right side, the operative leg in the uppermost position and rolled forward with the knee flexed at a 90-degree angle (modified Sims' position), the sciatic nerve block was performed first using the classic Labat approach. (A line was drawn from the posterior superior iliac spine to the greater trochanter, and a second line was drawn perpendicularly from the midpoint and extended caudally 5 cm. This point was the site of needle insertion.) Using a peripheral nerve stimulator, the sciatic nerve was located by eliciting plantar flexion with a Contiplex® 10-inch, 18 gauge short bevel needle (B. Braun Melsungen AG, Melsungen, Germany); muscle twitch was lost at 0.48 mA. Twenty milliliters ropivacaine (0.5%) with epinephrine (0.005 mg/ml) was injected incrementally, without report of pain or paresthesia. A perineural 20-gauge epidural catheter was easily threaded using catheter-through-needle technique and secured 5 cm deep to the skin. The patient then turned supine, and a left femoral nerve block was performed. One centimeter lateral to the femoral artery pulse and 2 cm inferior to the inguinal ligament, the needle was advanced in the sagittal plane. The femoral nerve was identified by quadriceps contraction with the same peripheral nerve stimulator. The twitch was lost at 0.46 mA, at which point 35 ml ropivacaine (0.5%) with epinephrine (0.005 mg/ml) was injected in a similar manner. A 20-gauge epidural catheter was threaded and secured 5 cm deep to the skin.
Intraoperative Management
The patient was transferred to the operating room, where a subarachnoid block was performed for surgical anesthesia using a 25-gauge Whitacre pencil-point spinal needle (Becton, Dickinson, Franklin Lakes, NJ) through which 1.2 ml hyperbaric bupivacaine (0.75%) was injected. A T10 level of anesthesia was attained. The patient was positioned supine for surgery, and a tourniquet was applied to the left thigh. Before surgical incision, the tourniquet was inflated to a pressure of 250 mmHg. The surgery was completed uneventfully. Total tourniquet time was 46 min.
Postoperative Management
In the recovery room, infusions in each catheter were begun immediately after surgery; the catheters were test dosed with no intravenous symptoms, and bupivacaine (0.25%) infusion was begun in each catheter at a rate of 7 ml/h. On the morning of postoperative day 1, the local anesthetic infusions were discontinued, and both catheters were removed to optimize physical therapy. On the afternoon of postoperative day 1, after presumed recovery from any residual effects of local anesthetic, physical exam by the hospital's acute pain service was notable for a left lower extremity motor strength score of 3 of 5 (Medical Research Council scale), with the exception of ankle dorsiflexion, which was absent. The patient reported no pain. There was no tenderness or ecchymosis at the sites of nerve block injection. On postoperative day 2, the patient reported pain on the plantar surface of the left foot, pain over the posterior left thigh, and a left foot drop was noted again. The patient continued physical therapy for the remainder of his inpatient stay and was discharged home on postoperative day 4, without improvement in motor examination. An outpatient appointment was made with neurology during the week after discharge, but the patient failed to appear. Despite several telephone call reminders, he did not follow up.
Outpatient Follow-up
Three and one half weeks later, the patient presented to the emergency department reporting pain and weakness in the left leg and foot. Physical exam revealed a warm left lower extremity with mild swelling, absent dorsiflexion, and decreased sensation over both the medial and lateral aspect of the foot. A complex regional pain syndrome type one was considered in the emergency department; gabapentin was prescribed by the emergency department physician, and plans were made for the patient to follow up with a neurologist the next week. At the neurologist's appointment, the patient still had unresolved lower extremity symptoms, although the plantar surface foot pain had been replaced by numbness over the dorsum of the foot and occasional shooting pains up the posterior aspect of the leg and thigh. On physical exam, there was decreased sensation to pinprick on the dorsum of the foot, weakness of both foot dorsiflexion (score 0 of 5) and plantar flexion (score 3 of 5), mild weakness (score 4− of 5) of the hamstrings, and absence of the left ankle deep tendon reflex. Electrodiagnostic testing demonstrated absent left sural and superficial peroneal sensory responses, and absent left peroneal (extensor digitorum brevis and tibialis anterior recording) and tibial motor responses. The right sural sensory response was normal. Needle examination showed increased insertional activity in the tibialis anterior without recruitable motor units. The left medial gastrocnemius and the long head of the biceps femoris showed decreased recruitment of normal morphology motor units (fig. 1). The vastus lateralis, gluteus medius and maximus, and low lumbosacral paraspinals were normal. Both clinical examination and electrodiagnostic testing pointed to a sciatic mononeuropathy in the mid-thigh.
Postoperative plain radiographs of the femur showed vascular calcifications in the vessels of the thigh (fig. 2). Contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging of the thigh was performed. There was no sciatic nerve abnormality, but there was an abnormal signal in the mid- to distal femur that was consistent with a bone infarct (fig. 3).
The patient continued physical therapy. By 1 yr after surgery, he had a score of 4 of 5 dorsiflexion strength, was able to walk independently, and had only mild sensory loss over the dorsum of the foot.
"Foot drop" is a colloquial term that aptly describes the most striking physical finding of peroneal nerve injury. Compensation for weakness of foot dorsiflexion results in the characteristic high-stepping gait used to prevent tripping over the toes. Weakness of foot eversion and toe extension is also present. This clinical picture can be caused by a lesion anywhere along the course of the L5 nerve fascicles, from the anterior horn cells to the peroneal nerve itself. For example, damage to the sciatic nerve can result in foot drop if there is injury to the lateral trunk because this trunk becomes the peroneal nerve.2
Peroneal nerve injury causing foot drop is a well-known complication of total knee arthroplasty. Injury in this setting can be caused by compression, ischemia, traction, crush, or laceration. The incidence of this injury based on more recent observations is estimated to be 0.79%.3,4One of the most commonly suggested risk factors is a valgus deformity of the joint greater than or equal to 10 degrees; intraoperative correction of the deformity results in traction on the nerve. A preoperative flexion contracture of the knee also increases stretch on the nerve after surgery and is a predisposing factor.5,–,8A baseline neuropathy increases risk,9,10and preoperative neurologic evaluation has been recommended so that surgical technique can be adjusted if a known underlying neuropathy is present.9Other predisposing factors may include tourniquet time longer than 120 min, rheumatoid arthritis, constrictive dressings, postoperative bleeding,3,11and previous lumbar laminectomy.7One study identified tourniquet pressures of greater than 400 mmHg as a predisposing factor.12The numerous factors that influence the risk of nerve injury after knee arthroplasty can make the determination of a single cause of injury challenging. It is likely that a combination of these factors explains the much higher incidence of nerve injury after total knee arthroplasty than is associated with regional nerve block or tourniquet use alone (fig. 4).
The estimated incidence of neuropathy after peripheral nerve blockade varies depending on the site of block and other factors. One recent meta-analysis reported an incidence of approximately 3% for interscalene, axillary, and femoral nerve blocks combined; permanent neurologic injury was rare.13Serious neurologic injury in one large prospective study occurred in 0.027% of peripheral nerve blocks.14Continuous nerve block may be associated with a somewhat higher risk of neurologic complications, with one group reporting an incidence of 0.21% after continuous femoral nerve block.15The risk of injury from sciatic nerve block in particular is not well established. The paucity of injury reports may be the result of lower relative numbers of these blocks; the lack of easily searchable, consistent records of peripheral nerve block placement in many institutions; and the low frequency of regional block-related neuropathy, especially in the lower extremity. One group reported the incidence of neuropathy after sciatic block as 0.41% based on three studies; this incidence is likely overestimated by the inclusion of one study that reported a 2.07% incidence in both sciatic and femoral nerve blocks.13A large prospective study reported an incidence of 0.024%.14
Sciatic nerve blockade, like other peripheral nerve blocks, can cause neurologic injury from needle trauma, intraneural injection of local anesthetic, neuronal ischemia, and neurotoxicity of local anesthetic. True symptoms of neuropathy, which include allodynia, hyperpathia, and hyperesthesia, must be distinguished from perceived nerve injury resulting in paresthesia. Lack of pain on injection is not a reliable indicator of safety; resistance on injection has been suggested to be more indicative of intraneural placement of the needle.16
An epidural in place has been implicated as a risk factor for peroneal nerve injury after total knee arthroplasty.3,7,8,17It has been proposed that the sensory (and especially proprioceptive) deficits of this technique may result in patient tolerance of either unsafe leg position or overly constrictive dressings. Epidural anesthesia is also suspected of delaying the diagnosis of nerve injury of other etiologies.7If epidural anesthesia is a predisposing factor for perioperative peroneal nerve injury, it may be of value to consider the risks of the sensory deficits of catheter-based sciatic nerve block. Our patient received a spinal block for the operation, which should not have masked any postoperative neurologic injury because of its short duration of action compared with the peripheral nerve blocks. However, intravenous sedation with benzodiazepines and opioids could mask the patient's perception of pain or paresthesia in the presence of intraneural injection.
The etiology of the nerve injury has implications for prognosis and treatment and is of medicolegal interest because nerve injuries represent approximately one third of all anesthesia-associated claims in the United States.18Axonal preservation portends improved outlook for recovery. Compressive or stretch injuries are often associated with damage to the myelin sheath only and may be more likely to resolve. If the axon is disrupted, as might be the case with direct needle trauma or from ischemia, recovery is slower and perhaps less complete.19Injection of local anesthetic can cause time- and concentration-dependent injury, which is additive to any other neural injury.20The type of local anesthetic used may also influence risk of nerve injury. For example, the literature suggests that ropivacaine may cause a reduction in peripheral nerve blood flow without significant histopathologic changes,21but it may cause additional dysfunction in a predisposed nerve. Although our patient's nerve injury was distant from the site of needle placement, in cases of nerve injury near the site of needle placement, the type of local anesthetic injected may be of relevance when considering factors influencing injury.
In this case, the importance of imaging is highlighted because it suggests the most likely location, and thus the etiology, of injury. Electrodiagnostic studies supported the clinical impression of sciatic nerve injury, rather than isolated peroneal nerve injury. Given the plain radiograph findings, the possibility of an ischemic lesion affecting the watershed area of the sciatic nerve became apparent. Magnetic resonance imaging of the thigh did not show any sciatic nerve abnormalities, although the resolution may not have been adequate for this purpose; however, the signal abnormalities did point to an ischemic bone lesion in the mid-thigh, which supported the idea of an ischemic sciatic mononeuropathy.
The imaging findings suggested intraoperative tourniquet use as a contributor to injury. This was surprising given the short tourniquet time. Clinically manifested tourniquet injury is rare, with an estimated overall incidence of 0.01–0.02%.22,23Subsequent investigations have determined that subclinical postoperative electromyographic abnormalities are much more common than previously thought; one group of post-knee-arthroscopy patients demonstrated a 71% incidence of asymptomatic denervation.24
Tourniquet injury after total knee arthroplasty has been studied after prolonged tourniquet times of greater than 2 h. The incidence of injury is significantly increased in this circumstance, with one estimate being 7.7% for combined peroneal and tibial nerve palsies.11The mechanism is thought to be both ischemia and mechanical trauma.
In larger series of sciatic mononeuropathies, sciatic neuropathy caused specifically by tourniquet was not found to be a common etiology. There are two series of sciatic mononeuropathies published.25,26In one retrospective series of 73 patients that focused on clinical and prognostic features, 16 (21.9%) patients were status post total hip replacement without mention of type of anesthesia. Only one (1.4%) case was secondary to pneumatic thigh tourniquet compression. Seven (9.6%) had nerve infarction: five in the setting of vasculitis, one with diabetic mononeuropathy, and one in the setting of common iliac artery thrombosis. In the other series of 100 patients, which focused more on electrodiagnostic features, the authors noted that 93% of cases had axonal loss on electromyographic testing. Only seven patients had demyelinating lesions: six compressive and one idiopathic. The peroneal division of the sciatic nerve was affected more than the tibial division in 64% of cases. Overall, the clinical recovery was 30% by 1 yr, 50% by 2 yr, and 75% by 3 yr. A long and incomplete recovery was predicted by the absence or low amplitude of a motor-evoked response recorded from the extensor digitorum brevis and the initial absence of foot plantar and dorsiflexion on initial examination.
Underlying vascular compromise may have made our patient more vulnerable to tourniquet injury, despite a tourniquet time of only 46 min. He had numerous risk factors for peripheral arterial disease, including age, obesity, history of smoking, and hypertension. The vascular calcifications on thigh radiography also strengthened the argument for underlying vascular disease contributing to injury.
Knowledge Gap and Recommendations
Because postoperative neuropathy of any cause is of concern to the anesthesiologist, it is prudent to evaluate patients' risk factors for subclinical neuropathy before regional blocks. Although a single institution cohort study suggested that age, type of surgical procedure, and total tourniquet time were the main factors associated with perioperative nerve injury,4other factors, such as uremia, human immunodeficiency virus, alcohol and smoking habits, and previous chemotherapeutic agent use, may contribute to such a neuropathy. Age is a risk factor for axonal degeneration, which in turn decreases conduction velocity in both motor and sensory nerve fibers.27It has also been shown that the duration of local anesthetic action in the elderly patient population (age older than 70 yr) is prolonged.28Diabetes could place a patient at higher risk for nerve injury. A small study revealed 100% intraneural injection of the sciatic nerve in hyperglycemic dogs when using low electrical stimulation threshold.29Certain surgical specialties, such as neurosurgery, cardiac surgery, general surgery, and orthopedic surgery, have also been shown to be associated with perioperative peripheral nerve injury.30
Reducing the dose, concentration, or potency of local anesthetic and eliminating or reducing the concentration of vasoconstrictive additives are also potential considerations.2,31Careful and well-documented preoperative neurologic exam and clear communication with the surgeon as to the anticipated difficulty of surgery will aid in making an anesthetic plan. Obvious surgical risk factors for nerve injury, such as valgus deformity and flexion contracture, should be identified.
Although awareness of risk factors may alert the practitioner to an increased likelihood of subclinical neuropathy, evaluation for peripheral vascular disease (ankle-brachial indices), blood testing for thyroid dysfunction and vitamin deficiency, and procedures such as electromyography and nerve biopsies are all impractical and cost prohibitive for preoperative evaluation in every at-risk patient. A practical recommendation for the regionalist would be to obtain a careful history for any symptoms (burning, numbness, paresthesias, pain, paresis, or claudication) that may be associated with neuropathy and perform a more thorough neurologic exam before block placement if these are present. In addition, confirmation of a repeat normal neurologic exam before starting postoperative peripheral nerve catheter infusions may be helpful in early identification of postoperative nerve injury. If an acute peripheral neuropathy is identified, early imaging by computed tomography or ultrasound should be performed to rule out local hematoma. Electromyographic assessment for the integrity of the nerve should be performed, with timing of this study guided by input obtained from the neurologic consult. Recovery of function can take as long as 2 yr, depending on the level of the lesion and the severity of damage.32
The use of ultrasound may prove to be another method for reducing the incidence of nerve injury. The increasing adoption of ultrasound guidance for peripheral nerve block placement is an important advance in regional anesthesia, and this technique has been shown to have several advantages when used for nerve localization, including speed of block onset and block success rate.33Although ultrasound guidance likely does increase safety,34this has not yet been shown; future directions for research may include the demonstration of superior safety with its use.
This case also highlights the importance of a careful, detailed preoperative evaluation; future research exploring the importance of risk factors for subclinical neuropathy and the influence of tourniquet times and pressures using preoperative and postoperative electroneuromyographic recordings may provide anesthesiologists and surgeons with methods to reduce injury in higher-risk patients.
Neurologist's Comments
Why did the neurologic exam show a score of 3 of 5 plantar flexion weakness with no recruitable tibial motor response?
The inability to record motor potentials despite clinical evidence for muscle contraction was technical in nature, influenced by the patient's leg swelling that was noted clinically. Leg edema may make recordings of the sensory and motor responses more difficult and may overestimate the degree of nerve function loss. This was confirmed by the ability to elicit muscle contraction during needle examination. This ultimately conferred a better chance for recovery of function in our patient.
Tell us about the pathophysiology of nerve injury and specifically of tourniquet-induced nerve injury .
The pathophysiology of compressive nerve injury is complex. The anatomopathologic classification of focal nerve injuries by Seddon35and Sunderland36takes into consideration the epineurium, endoneurium, and perineurium. It describes a continuum of nerve injury, from neurapraxia to axonotmesis to neurotmesis, with progressive involvement of the three nerve compartments. This classification has no good correlate in clinical or electrodiagnostic diagnosis because lesions to these supporting tissues do not directly affect myelin or axon function. For prognostic purposes, we separate focal neuropathies into demyelinating and axonal lesions, and try to determine the degree of axonal loss. The ischemic theory of nerve injury has dominated the literature after the classic experiments of pressure cuff inflation by Lewis in the 1930s.37However, more recent experiments in the 1970s38suggested that the main pathophysiology is one of compression, with nodes of Ranvier and paranodal myelin displacement as main causes of electrical conduction failure. Microvascularization experiments39also suggest that the endoneurial vascular flow remains well preserved in focal crush injuries, making the ischemic theory even less likely.
What is the role of early electromyography, ultrasound, and other imaging in the workup of possible peripheral nerve injury?
Early electromyography is rarely performed because the results may not be able to differentiate between demyelination and early axonal loss and may miss early axonal loss if done too early. For a lower extremity injury, approximately 3 weeks after the injury is about right to pursue electromyographic studies. Early imaging is definitely recommended. Ultrasound may not be adequate to rule out local hematoma; computed tomography is probably superior for this purpose.

Once upon a time, an activist, a theologian, and a psychologist walked into a group chat. Everything was laid out on the table: Dating. Politics. The Black church. Pop culture. Soon, other Black women began pulling up chairs to gather round. And so, the Truth's Table podcast was born.
In their literary debut, co-hosts Christina Edmondson, Michelle Higgins, and Ekemini Uwan offer stories by Black women and for Black women examining theology, politics, race, culture, and gender matters through a Christian lens. For anyone seeking to explore the spiritual dimensions of hot-button issues within the church, or anyone thirsty to deepen their faith, Truth's Table provides exactly the survival guide we need. These essays deliver a compelling theological re-education and pair the spiritual formation and political education necessary for Black women of faith.

'Blade Runner OST' composer Vangelis to release composition boxset
The 13-album release arrives next February
Vangelis is releasing an extensive box set titled 'Delectus', compiling a number of his historic works.
It's due out on February 3, and arrives as a deluxe box comprising rare photos, essays and a booklet detailing his time as a Polydor/Vertigo artist alongside 13 CD albums of his compositions.
Featured pieces include 'L'Apocalypse Des Animaux', 'China', 'Opera Sauvage', 'Chariots of Fire' and 'Invisible Connections' and his collaborations with Jon Anderson.
Unfortunately the 'Blade Runner OST' is not included in the ensemble that is coming out through Polydor and Vertigo, as it only includes material licensed to those labels.
It's still a fine collection for any Vangelis fan to pick up, with the pioneering artist supervising the remastering process. Speaking about this process, he said: "I always welcome remastering my old work, for two basic reasons. Firstly, I get the opportunity to bring the sounds to today's standards. Secondly, it gives me the chance to go through the experiences and memories of the time."
Head here for the pre-order.

In the period between November 13 and 17, in Riga, Latvia was held a study visit.
Young representatives from several umbrella associations took part in this visit of:
- National Youth Council of Macedonia (NMSM);
- Estonian Union of Youth Associations (ENL);
- Latvian Youth Council (LJP);
- Slovak Youth Council (RMS);
- National Youth Council of Serbia (KOMS).
As part of their visit to Riga, they visited the Latvian Youth Council (LJP), visited two organizations in their membership ("Piedzivojuma Gars" and "FreeRiga"). The first member organization is located in a once neglected part of the city where they created their own commune from a series of abandoned houses and buildings where everyone contributes in different ways: through cultural events, music concerts, art exhibitions; making bicycles and other furniture, etc. Another organization "FreeRiga" deals with the arrangement of abandoned buildings throughout Riga.
On the second working day of the study visit to Latvia, the participants of the visit were in the premises of the Ministry of Education and Science of Latvia, where they discussed the projects and processes carried out by the Ministry within the framework of youth policy, as well as their relationship with HR. Also, they shared mutual experiences and current situations in each country from which the partner organization comes.
The second part of the second working day of the study visit to Latvia in the premises of the HRD was about the EU youth goals from the perspective of Latvia. The work of the European Youth Year in Latvia was presented and the participants shared experiences from their countries.
On the third day of the study visit to Latvia (November 16, 2022), we attended the conference "Latvia in the eyes of young people", where it was presented what was done in Latvia from the aspect of youth policy in the previous year. After the opening remarks, a speech was given by a representative of the Ministry of Education and Science of Latvia. Then work in working groups was determined.
The study visit was organized within the Erasmus + project "Youth Empowerment Incubator", supported by the European Union.

What is Juli Ransomware ?
VoidCrypt ransomware shows to be a strange hybrid of corporate-aimed ransomware and one targeted at individuals and Juli is a ransomware that belongs to the VoidCrypt Ransomware family.
Analysts at SecneurX found that Juli encrypts files and appends its extension ("(MJ-GM8734601592)(email@example.com).Juli") to filenames. Also, it drops the "unlock-info.txt" file that contains a ransom note.
After executing the Juli ransomware all files and folders got encrypted and appended their filenames with a ".(MJ-GM8734601592)(email@example.com).Juli" extension. For Example a file titled as "Sep2019.docx" appeared as "Sep2019.docx.(MJ-GM8734601592)(email@example.com).Juli", "Jan2020.docx" as "Jan2020.docx.(MJ-GM8734601592)(email@example.com).Juli", and so on.
Screenshot of files encrypted by .Juli ransomware
Juli Ransomware Overview
Juli ransomware notes inform victims that their files have been encrypted. It instructs victims to send an email to this mail address "email@example.com" with an title "MJ-DS0412396587" and instructs to send the mail as quick as possible if not the bitcoin payment will increase to decrypt all files and folders and also mentioned some bitcoin website for buying bitcoin.
How does ransomware infect my computer?
Malware (ransomware included) is spread using phishing and social engineering tactics. Malicious programs are typically presented as or bundled with ordinary content. Infectious files can be executables (.exe, .run, etc.), archives (ZIP, RAR, etc.), Microsoft Office and PDF documents, JavaScript, and so on. When a virulent file is executed, run, or otherwise opened - the infection process is jumpstarted.

What can you do to avoid being a ransomware victim?
As dangerous as ransomware is, simply being aware and staying updated with the latest ransomware trends can go a long way in securing your data and systems. Here are helpful tips on how you can defend yourself from a likely attack.
Scrutinize emails & its attachments before opening them
Be wary of emails from unverified sources. You can check by communicating directly with the purported sender to confirm if they sent the messages. To check its validity, you can use SecneurX Sandbox to verify the sanity of the email
Avoid clicking embedded links found in unverified emails
Such social engineering tricks can lead to the download of ransomware. Additionally, be wary of sites that prompt you to enter a CAPTCHA code as this could be linked to a ransomware attack. To check its validity, you can use services like SecneurX Sandbox to verify the reputation of the site.
Back up your important files
While prevention is always better than the cure, having a backup of important files can at least lessen the potential damage done by a ransomware attack. While being locked out of your own system is always a bad thing, at least it's not a total disaster since you can always retrieve your important files. The 3-2-1 backup rule applies here—three backup copies of your data on two different media, and one of those copies in a separate location.
Regularly update software, programs, applications
Updating them to the latest versions can provide an added layer of protection against online threats as some ransomware arrive via vulnerability exploits.
Use a layered protection suite
Doing so can detect threats before they enter your network. Security solutions like SecneurX ATP can block Infectious files (like executables (.exe, .run, etc.), archives (ZIP, RAR, etc.), Microsoft Office and PDF documents, JavaScript, and so on) by scanning them at the point of entry of the organizations (File uploads, USB file transfers etc)

FASB Flash Report: Income Tax Disclosures - Proposed Changes
FASB Flash Report: Income Tax Disclosures - Proposed Changes
Entities may be required to disclose more granular information about income taxes.
Specifically, under a proposal issued by the FASB:
- Public business entities (as defined in U.S. GAAP) would be required to disclose a rate reconciliation that is more disaggregated than under current requirements, using set categories. Other entities would be required to provide qualitative disclosure about specific categories of items and individual jurisdictions that result in a significant difference between the statutory tax rate and the effective tax rate.
- All entities would be required to disclose more information about income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction.
In addition, the proposal includes changes previously exposed for comment in 2019, which could result in more disclosures for certain entities.
Comments on the proposal are due by May 30, 2023. Management should consider commenting on the operability of the proposal and the time needed to implement it.
The FASB proposed these amendments to improve the transparency and usefulness of income tax disclosures for investors, lenders, and other users of financial statements, who requested more information to help them assess an entity's tax risks, planning and cash flows. As shown in the timeline below, this proposal builds upon work that the FASB began in 2014, proposals that were issued in 2016 and 2019, and input from the 2021 FASB Agenda Consultation.
Main Provisions
Companies would be required to provide more information in the rate reconciliation and about income taxes paid. These proposed changes are described in more detail below.
Rate Reconciliation
Public business entities (as defined in U.S. GAAP) would be required to provide more quantitative and qualitative disclosures about the rate reconciliation. Other entities would be required to provide more qualitative disclosures.
Rate Reconciliation Changes for Public Business Entities
Public business entities would be required annually to disclose a tabular reconciliation, using both percentages and reporting currency amounts, with the following categories (however, these will be further disaggregated as described below and as shown in the example in the Appendix):
These categories are more disaggregated than current requirements. In addition, ASC 740 currently requires an entity to disclose an amount or a percentage, but not both.
Under the proposal, separate disclosure (that is, a separate line item in the rate reconciliation) would be required for any reconciling item listed below in which the effect of the reconciling item is greater than or equal to 5% of the amount computed by multiplying the income (or loss) from continuing operations before tax by the applicable statutory federal income tax rate:
- Effects of cross-border tax laws, tax credits, and nontaxable or nondeductible items categories, which must be disaggregated by nature
- Effects of foreign tax effects, which must be disaggregated by country and by nature
- Other reconciling items, disaggregated by nature
When disaggregating reconciling items by nature, an entity should consider the reconciling item's fundamental or essential characteristics, such as the event that caused the reconciling item and the activity related to the reconciling item.
The proposal would also require a public business entity to qualitatively describe:
- State and local jurisdictions that contribute to the majority of the effect of the state and local tax category (annually)
- The nature, effect, and significant year-over-year changes in the reconciling items, if not otherwise evident (annually)
- Any reconciling items that significantly change the estimated annual effective tax rate from the prior annual reporting period (quarterly)
BDO Insight
Under this proposal, foreign tax effects are calculated for each individual country, not net. For example, if the net impact of foreign tax effects is 2%, with Foreign Country A negatively affecting the rate by 10% and Foreign Country B favorably affecting the rate by 8%, then both Foreign Country A and Foreign Country B would be separately disclosed within the foreign tax effects category.
Additionally, individual reconciling items (for example, the effects of share-based payment awards and of changes in unrecognized tax benefits, both on the tax provision for Foreign Country A) would be disaggregated and separately disclosed by nature and by country, as shown in the example in the Appendix.
While stakeholders are generally expected to support these proposed changes, applying the new requirements may require more time and effort by both management and auditors. Management should consider whether changes are needed to implement internal controls over this information.
Rate Reconciliation Changes for Other Entities
Under this proposal, an entity other than a public business entity would be required to qualitatively (rather than quantitatively) disclose the nature and effect of significant reconciling items listed in the table above, and individual jurisdictions that result in a significant difference between the statutory tax rate and the effective tax rate. However, a numerical reconciliation is not required. The proposal includes an example of the required disclosure.
Income Taxes Paid
Under this proposal, all entities would be required to disclose:
- Year-to-date income taxes paid disaggregated by federal, state, and foreign taxes (annually and quarterly)
- Income taxes paid disaggregated by individual jurisdictions using a threshold of 5% of total income taxes paid (annually)
Entities would disclose amounts paid net of refunds received.
BDO Insight
Cash taxes paid should be readily available for most companies since the information is also needed for tax returns. However, management should consider whether it needs to change or implement internal controls over this information, since it will now form part of the disclosures in the financial statements.
Other Changes Previously Proposed
The FASB included certain amendments from the 2019 revised exposure draft in the current proposal. These changes include:
- Replacing the term "public entity" with the term "public business entity"
- Eliminating the requirement for all entities to disclose:
- The nature and estimate of the range of the reasonably possible change in the unrecognized tax benefits balance in the next 12 months or
- A statement that an estimate of the range cannot be made
- Removing the requirement to disclose the cumulative amount of each type of temporary difference when a deferred tax liability is not recognized because of the exceptions to comprehensive recognition of deferred taxes related to subsidiaries and corporate joint ventures
BDO Insight
Under this proposal, certain entities that today are considered "nonpublic entities" would be "public business entities" (as defined in U.S. GAAP) and would be required to make all the disclosures that are currently required for public entities in ASC 740, Income Taxes, in addition to the new disclosure requirements. Such entities include:
- Acquirees whose financial statements are included in a registrant's SEC filing in accordance with Rule 3-05 of Regulation S-X
- Equity method investees whose financial statements or summarized financial information are included in a registrant's SEC filing in accordance with Rule 3-09 or Rule 4-08(g) of Regulation S-X, respectively
- Certain financial institutions required to file financial statements with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Federal Reserve, or the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency
- Certain insurance companies that file financial statements with state insurance regulators
These entities may need more time or incur more costs to implement the proposal and may need to design internal controls over the required information.
Additionally, even if an entity does not meet the definition of a public business entity today, management should consider the likelihood of becoming a public business entity and decide whether to proactively incur the time and costs now in case that happens.
Effective Dates and Transition
The effective date will be determined in the future. The changes would be effective retrospectively; that is, an entity would be required to make the income tax disclosures for all periods presented.

The following example, adapted from the FASB's proposal, illustrates the application of the guidance on required categories and level of disaggregation in the rate reconciliation, assuming such amounts meet the quantitative and qualitative criteria for disaggregation described above
(1) State taxes in California and New York contributed to the majority of the tax effect in this category.
