Theosis ("deification," "divinization") is the process of a worshiper becoming free of hamartía ("missing the mark"), being united with God, beginning in this life and later consummated in bodily resurrection. For Orthodox Christians, Théōsis (see 2 Pet. 1:4) is salvation. Théōsis assumes that humans from the beginning are made to share in the Life or Nature of the all-Holy Trinity. Therefore, an infant or an adult worshiper is saved from the state of unholiness (hamartía — which is not to be confused with hamártēma "sin") for participation in the Life (zōé, not simply bíos) of the Trinity — which is everlasting.
This is not to be confused with the heretical (apothéōsis) - "Deification in God's Essence", which is imparticipable.
Alternative spellings: Theiosis, Theopoiesis
Orthodox theology
The statement by St. Athanasius of Alexandria, "The Son of God became man, that we might become god", [the second g is always lowercase since man can never become a God] indicates the concept beautifully. II Peter 1:4 says that we have become " . . . partakers of divine nature." Athanasius amplifies the meaning of this verse when he says theosis is "becoming by grace what God is by nature" (De Incarnatione, I). What would otherwise seem absurd, that fallen, sinful man may become holy as God is holy, has been made possible through Jesus Christ, who is God incarnate. Naturally, the crucial Christian assertion, that God is One, sets an absolute limit on the meaning of theosis - it is not possible for any created being to become, ontologically, God or even another god.
Through theoria, the knowledge of God in Jesus Christ, human beings come to know and experience what it means to be fully human (the created image of God); through their communion with Jesus Christ God shares Himself with the human race, in order to conform them to all that God is in knowledge, righteousness and holiness. Theosis also asserts the complete restoration of all people (and of the entire creation), in principle. This is built upon the understanding of the atonement put forward by Irenaeus of Lyons, called "recapitulation."
For many fathers, theosis goes beyond simply restoring people to their state before the Fall of Adam and Eve, teaching that because Christ united the human and divine natures in his person, it is now possible for someone to experience closer fellowship with God than Adam and Eve initially experienced in the Garden of Eden, and that people can become more like God than Adam and Eve were at that time. Some Orthodox theologians go so far as to say that Jesus would have become incarnate for this reason alone, even if Adam and Eve had never sinned.
All of humanity is fully restored to the full potential of humanity because the Son of God took to Himself a human nature to be born of a woman, and takes to Himself also the sufferings due to sin (yet is not Himself a sinful man, and is God unchanged in His being). In Christ, the two natures of God and human are not two persons but one; thus, a union is effected in Christ, between all of humanity and God. So, the holy God and sinful humanity are reconciled in principle, in the one sinless man, Jesus Christ. (See Jesus's prayer as recorded in John 17.)
This reconciliation is made actual through the struggle (podvig in Russian) to conform to the image of Christ. Without the struggle, the praxis, there is no real faith; faith leads to action, without which it is dead. One must unite will, thought and action to God's will, His thoughts and His actions. A person must fashion his life to be a mirror, a true likeness of God. More than that, since God and humanity are more than a similarity in Christ but rather a true union, Christians' lives are more than mere imitation and are rather a union with the life of God Himself: so that, the one who is working out salvation, is united with God working within the penitent both to will and to do that which pleases God. Gregory Palamas affirmed the possibility of humanity's union with God in His energies, while also affirming that because of God's transcendence and utter otherness, it is impossible for any person or other creature to know or to be united with God's essence. Yet through faith we can attain phronema, an understanding of the faith of the Church.
The journey towards theosis includes many forms of praxis. Living in the community of the church and partaking regularly of the sacraments, and especially the Eucharist, is taken for granted. Also important is cultivating "prayer of the heart", and prayer that never ceases, as Paul exhorts the Thessalonians (1 and 2). This unceasing prayer of the heart is a dominant theme in the writings of the Fathers, especially in those collected in the Philokalia.

Comparative considerations
Theosis in the Christian West
Although the doctrine of theosis came to be neglected in the Western Church, it was clearly taught in the Roman Catholic tradition as late as the 13th century by Thomas Aquinas, who taught that "full participation in divinity which is humankind's true beatitude and the destiny of human life" (Summa Theologiae 3.1.2).
Some Protestant use of the term "theosis"
In addition to the strong currents of theosis in early and some contemporary Catholic theology, one can find it as a recurring theme within Anglicanism: in Lancelot Andrewes (17th c.), the hymnody of John and Charles Wesley (18th c.), Edward B. Pusey (19th c.), and A. M. Allchin and E. Charles Miller (20th c.). The Finnish school of Lutheranism led by Tuomo Mannermaa argues that Martin Luther's understood justification to mean theosis.
Theosis as a concept is used among Methodists [1] especially in relation to the pietist movement and in the distinctive Protestant doctrine of entire sanctification which teaches, in summary, that it is the Christian's goal, in principle possible to achieve, to live without any sin. In 1311 the Council of Vienne declared this notion, "that man in this present life can acquire so great and such a degree of perfection that he will be rendered inwardly sinless, and that he will not be able to advance farther in grace" (Denziger §471), to be a heresy. Instead of theosis, sanctification, being set apart or made holy, is the term that is used more in Protestant theology. Specifically, progressive sanctification is the term that is used for the ongoing work of the Holy Spirit, whereby an individual is made more holy.
The Protestant conceptions of praxis, phronema, ascetical theology, and sacraments are quite different from Catholic and Orthodox understandings, but the use of the term theosis may illustrate a commonality of objective or hope.
Deification in Mormonism
The doctrine of theosis or deification in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints differs significantly from the theosis of Orthodox Christianity. In Mormonism it is usually referred to as exaltation or eternal life. While the primary focus of Mormonism is on the atonement of Jesus Christ, the reason for the atonement is exaltation which goes beyond mere salvation. All men will be saved from sin and death, but only those who are sufficiently obedient and accept the atonement of Jesus Christ before the judgment will be exalted. One popular Mormon quote, coined by the early Mormon "disciple" Lorenzo Snow in 1837, is "As man now is, God once was; As God now is, man may be."[2] The teaching was taught first by Joseph Smith while pointing to John 5:19 of the New Testament, "God himself, the Father of us all, dwelt on an earth, the same as Jesus Christ himself did." (Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, pp. 345-46).
In the Mormon Book of Moses 1:39 God tells Moses, "this is my work and my glory—to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man." In that chapter God shows Moses a vision depicting some of God's vast creations including a vast number of worlds created for other people—a sampling of what God created in the past and what he will continue to do forever. Each world was prepared and peopled by God for the purpose of bringing to pass the immortality and eternal life of humankind. By immortality is meant personal resurrection so that each individual can continue to enjoy a perfect, physical body forever. By eternal life is meant becoming like God both in terms of holiness or godliness and in glory. It is commonly believed by members of the Church that, like God, an exalted human being is empowered with the privilege to create worlds and people in an endless process of exalting humankind.
Of all the Mormon doctrines including polygamy, critics generally deem this doctrine the most offensive or even blasphemous. Some Mormons argue that even assuming mainstream Christianity's definition of God's omnipotence and omnibenevolence, not only can God exalt mortal man, but God must do so. The argument is that if God is all-powerful, then God is capable of exalting man, and if God is all-good, then God should or must exalt man. They also point to comments by Christ and Psalmists among others that refer to the Divine nature and potential of humans as children of God. Some Mormons also suggest that discussions of theosis by early Church Fathers show an early belief in the Mormon concept of deification, although they disagree with much of the other theology of the same Church fathers, most notably the doctrine of the Trinity.
The Mormons' belief differs with the Orthodox belief in deification because the Latter-Day Saints believe that the core being of each individual, the "intelligence" which existed before becoming a spirit son or daughter, is uncreated or eternal. Orthodox deification always acknowledges a timeless Creator versus a finite creature who has been glorified by the grace of God. The Mormons are clear promoters of henotheism, and the Church Fathers have absolutely no commonality with their view.

Lets Make it Offical
I am still a big fan of the game, in particular I love raiding and the community that can develop around a guild who raids together. I love the struggle. I love the triumphs. I love the stupid inside jokes. Unfortunately, I've found those aspects of the game increasingly hard to find over the past few years. As I've said several times before, Cataclysm was a very tough expansion for me guild wise. Prior to cataclysm I had been in only 3 raiding guilds over 4 years, but during that one expansion I spent time in 6 or 7 different guilds. Most of them fell apart or were on the verge of falling apart when I left. It was a tough time and I considered quitting the game many times. However, I decided to take a second shot at a guild I have a lot of respect for thinking that if it worked out, it could be the long term home I've been looking for.
Unfortunately, it didn't work out. My trial was rejected for what I think are fairly nitpicky reasons. At about the same time I was laid off from my job and it was the straw that broke the camel's back (For the record, I have a new job now.). I didn't have a reason for logging in anymore, and that was good because I didn't feel like logging in anymore. I didn't mean to take a break for 4+ months, it just kind of happened.
Quick Edit: I have gotten a couple of comments asking what kind of guild would reject my trial. The simple truth is that just because I wrote a blog about moonkin doesn't mean that I'm an amazing raider. There is a lot more to raiding then knowing the theory. I've never claimed to be the best moonkin and can say for a fact that there are a lot of players out there better then me.
While I do think the reasons told to me for rejecting my trial were nitpicky, I also know that I could have performed more consistently. At the highest levels of raiding the little things matter a lot and I left myself open to critisism on a couple of occasions. Also, I think trialing at the start of an expansion when everyone is excited about the game was a mistake.
So, what does the future hold for me and this blog? I honestly don't know.
At this point, I doubt I am done with the game forever. I still feel the urge to log in and see whats going on every so often, but haven't done so yet. At the very least, I'll probably buy what ever expansion comes and try it out.
In terms of the blog, I think I'm done. I won't say I'll never write the blog again, but I doubt it. The blog has gotten increasingly hard to write over the years. When I started there were very few moonkin blogs and none of them were doing theorycrafting. On top of that, the theorycrafting was very simple in the beginning. However, over time it got harder, and Moonkin became more popular and attracted more theorycrafters. As time has gone on my blog has become tougher to write and less and less relevant. Given all that, it is probably time to put the blog to rest. But who knows, If I get back into the game in a big way maybe I'll get back into the blog in a big way as well.
I do want to say a few thank you's if this does end up being my final post.
First and foremost I must thank all of my readers over the years. I never imagined that the blog would become as big and influential as it was for a time.
I also want to thank Blizzard, GC, and the developers I had contact with (Chris and Chadd). Thanks for making a great game and getting me into Betas.
Thanks to Phaelia for providing a guide and helping my blog to grow early on. I wish you were still around.
Thanks to the many moonkin over the years who helped the blog both directly and indirectly over the years. This is by no means a complete list: Erdluf, Lissanna, Murmurs, Hamlet, Relevart, and many, many others I am forgetting at the moment.
A big thanks to all my great guildies over the years. Necro, Jeeves, Abid (rip) at FoC; Dchaney, Lotsapots, Doom, Ardin at WA. Sevrenwinter, Myraxa, Osmand, Keahe, Auro, and Syni at LoE. Finally at Skunkworks Infinitum, Neatpete, and Olducu thank you for your support.

This is so sad...
I've been reading your blog for years now, and I always came here when I had any doubts on how to improve my moonkin.
I honestly don't know where to find a blog/forum like this one, so for the last few months I've been kind of short on moonkin advices. And now you're definetly leaving!
I hope that's an improve for your life, but I really liked this thing (so much I felt I had to say something, even though I hadn't comment once in these years ^^u)
Anyway, best of lucks and thank you for all the help given to all moonkins :)
PS. Sorry for my english, i'm spanish and writing in another language it's quite difficult ^^u - March 5, 2013 at 5:00 PM
I've been reading youre blog since WotLK an i'll miss it!
You made "the way of the moonkin" easy for me, thank you and farewell!
- March 5, 2013 at 5:35 PM
Just wanted to write a thank you. Even though I have actually always played Bear and Cat, I have really enjoyed your writings over the years about WoW, raiding, Druids, and Moonkins. Thank you again, and take care :-)

Thanks for the great blog, well before things like Mr Robot, your BiS gear list was a very valuable tool. I referenced it many many times over the years.
All the best to you! - March 5, 2013 at 10:28 PM
Thank you for many years of excellent information. I will miss this blog greatly. Good luck to you.

Thank you for your blog/guides and gear lists - they got me started when I was a moonkin hatchling back in Naxx/Ulduar days and have been a valuable source of info/advice ever since. I will miss them!
All the best for whatever the future holds. - March 6, 2013 at 6:44 AM
I'm sorry to see you go, Graylo, but these things happen.
May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind always be at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
and rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again, cheers. - March 6, 2013 at 8:09 AM

Good luck with things Graylo. I've been a reader for years now, and I always enjoyed reading your views on various aspects of WoW. Thank you for all of the time you gave to us and the rest of the community, we truly did appreciate it.
- March 6, 2013 at 11:23 AM
I really hope you change your mind at some point and keep the blog going. I have been playing moonkin since vanilla and I've never been one to look at tons and tons of numbers/theorycrafting. However your gear lists and thoughts on gear were very much appreciated. A good blog does not need tons of math but some good stories and some good advice. Thanks again
- March 6, 2013 at 12:41 PM
Damn you had the best list for gear i have ever come across, it will be missed

Thanks for all the information the last years. It was really nice.
Time to find another good gear list as that one is hard to find. - March 10, 2013 at 1:02 PM
Merci pour toute l'aide que tu as pu m'apporter tout au long de ces nombreuses années de jeu.
Thanks for all the help you give me throughout these numerous years of game.

I am shedding many moonkin tears at this news. I had a feeling it was coming, due to the lack of updates recently, but I will miss your blog greatly.
Regardless of what you end up doing, I wish you luck and happiness. - March 14, 2013 at 9:04 AM

I'm sorry to inform you that the resident moonchicken preservation society has denied your request to vacate the feathered premises.
Your punishment for even pondering if you'd get away with it is 1000 lashes with a wet noodle, and possibly a fresh slab of trout.
Kind regards,
(PS: Aww :( ... Sorry to see ya go.) - March 14, 2013 at 9:31 PM
Thank you Graylo for the years of advice and musings. Many will miss your gear lists, but I wish miss your opinions, ideas, and innovations. I havn't played the game in a year yet still stop by to see what your latest thoughts are.
Good luck in all you do and farewell! - March 15, 2013 at 1:27 PM
I'm sad and disappointed you won't be blogging any more. I feel this was by far the best guide, especially the gear list, and I checked it all the time. Thanks for all of the time and effort you put in for so long and I wish you all the best!! I will definitely miss the blog!
- March 15, 2013 at 10:19 PM
As vert often I jump on thé wagon kindle of late on thé game! But, I just wanted to thank you fort aller thé good work you have done. You ère zone of the most estimated boomkin on the game. Tour insight will be missed fort sûre.

Thank you for all the hard work you put in to this, especially the gear lists. Good luck!

I've read your blog since I started playing a moonkin about 4 years ago. I really enjoyed your way of writing, it's easy to understand, but very interesting. No matter what information about moonkin I needed, I looked here and mostly found an answer.
Thank you for all years of writing this blog, I really hope that you find a guild that matches your expectations.
Greetings Cometesnovus - March 17, 2013 at 5:13 PM
Thanks for many years of great moonkin information. Good luck in everything and i hope you keep gaming and having fun inside or outside of WoW.
- March 18, 2013 at 7:12 PM
Graylo - you're a great guy and it easily could have gone the other way. This actually came up as we had a lot of quits/retirements at the very end of T14 (including myself - put myself out to pasture), and with all the recruitment and the short roster, someone at one point asked: if Graylo had app'd now, what would have happened? FWIW, your app threads generated 34 pages of forum discussion in total, which is the longest I can remember seeing.
I wouldn't let it worry you; in a sense a blog that brings a bit of wow joy to hundreds or thousands of readers is a bigger "contribution" than just clearing content and will be more memorable.
Anyhow, it's never easy to say no to a player you like, much less one as talented as yourself, regardless of how you feel like the balance of 34 pages of discussion leans. It's heartbreaking to be your last stop, though.
Anyhow, you're still welcome, if the mood takes you, to pop on and run BGs or LFR or whatnot with the rest of us retirees and so on. I know inf & myself and many probably still consider you part of the family, given your history. If not, I hope your future endeavors treat you well.
--Tashur/Grazdak - March 20, 2013 at 12:13 AM
your blog was always #1 spot for me to look for my moonkin information, i main a monk now but i still liked to drop in every now and again to see how my feathered friends were doing. All your hard work is greatly appreciated and i hope the future looks bright for you and whatever you do, wow or no wow
p.s. wtf kind of guild rejects a application from Graylo, paragon?
if i was leader of my guild and saw an applicant using the Graylo name, real or not they'd be accepted and promoted ASAP just for having the balls to call themself by that name - March 20, 2013 at 10:41 AM
I have been playing a moonkin since 2006. When I first started, I had no idea what I was doing and just played casually, but when I started raiding and was looking for tips, this blog was THE PLACE to go for information. Thank you so much for all the hard work and time. Good luck to!

I'm just glad to hear you're not dead. I even started a thread on the wow forums asking where you went and none of them really had a straight answer.
Listen, if you ever get interested in raiding again (this tier is awesome for us!) send me a message. My battle tag is Lazurturkey#1709 - March 23, 2013 at 2:34 PM
Yours was a great resource for my moonkin over the years. Thank you for the dedication you put into it, and I will miss it.
Cheers. Best of luck wherever the winds take you. - March 24, 2013 at 12:40 PM

good luck graylo, good real life :)

I personally feel like WoW has done the same thing to me and most of my friends. After wrath, their was no real reason to care for the story of warcraft. I had an active account but never logged on since Christmas, for nearly the same reasons.
I've known about this blog for years now, and I really only use your site for the gear list, and EJ for simcraft. With that said, I am sad to see this blog end, but at the same time relieved that I am not the only person who feels their passion for WoW has been drained.
You've made a solid contribution to the WoW community, and we all thank you. I personally hope to see you doing great things again, very soon. - March 25, 2013 at 7:23 AM
I am very sad to see this be the end. First Quieth quit now you. I do wish you a happy life and know that I couldn't of become a Moonkin without you.You have always been my go to. Start of a new xpac and there you always were with all the wonderful info I needed. At 60 years old tackling the way of the moonkin was always easy with you sittin on my shoulder guiding me down the right paths.I will miss you so much.
Thank you,
Lunaorchid of Durotan - March 25, 2013 at 10:38 PM
Greylo, I want to say thank you for your blog. I read it for years, and IMHO was one of the best moonkin sources available. I played a moonkin for a lot of years, in a very stable and supportive progression guild. Actually, one of the very few first day guilds still on the server. I too signed out just before MOP. I didn't particularly like the changes for moonkin, but I still have that itch to log back in. Glad you got a new gig, but if you ever started blogging the community would nor assuredly welcome you back.

You should have stayed with LoE, Graylo. You had it good there.
- March 27, 2013 at 1:39 PM
Graylo Master of the Moonkin, Thankyou for your generosity. For sharing your thoughts with us, your non egotistical open and honest information has helped make playing a moonkin a pleasure.
I will miss your posts as i have been reading them from the start and was sad to see your post today even though I gave up my moon passion when I completed the legendary staff quest for many of the reasons you have spoken about.
But people like you are what made wow great! not the game so go into the real world knowing you made a difference, enjoy your life in whatever you do. Thank you! - March 30, 2013 at 6:45 AM
Sad to see this blog die, i've been an avid reader for years. Hope the grind of real life rewards you some high ilvls. - Kokoshne

Best of luck to you in whatever you do :)
For what it's worth, my wife and I started playing shortly after BC was released. She rolled a Tauren Druid, and as soon as she could pick a spec (relatively late, if I recall correctly), she went Boomkin and never looked back. Throughout her ventures through Azeroth, Outlands, Northrend, and beyond, she has always tried to stay on top of her game by consulting your site (and spending hours fiddling with her gear and hitting Dr Boom before dummies came along)
I know your insight has guided her more than any other theorycrafting site, including EJ, because you took the "In Reality, and For Us Mere Mortal Players" aspect into consideration.
Thank you so much for your research and guidance and having been an immense help in contributing to her (and indirectly my) enjoyment of the game.
TL;DR: Thanks, you rock, take care! - April 9, 2013 at 8:46 AM

Longtime reader and just saw this now. I knew you were taking a break but it seems this has been happening for a while. I too have been reading since WotLK era and always checked out your blog for tips, breakpoints gear choices and sad that it is at it's end! Just wanted to say thanks for the good times, helping a Druid own at the meters and have fun doing it. I'll still come around in hopes of even just an update! It is and always will be fun reading your posts and wish you good luck on your journey away from Azeroth!
All the best!

Dear Graylo,
Thank you very much for your blog.
I used to be a moonkin back in Wotlk, probably one of the best of my medium-pop-servers, and I gotta say that's mostly thanks to you. Thanks to your blog, I learned to love theory-crafting about the Wotlk moonkin rotation. Back then, I remember pointing every aspiring moonkin towards your blog, the BIS-lists used to be particularly helpful since, as you said, there weren't that many moonkin resources back then.
I left wow prior to cata and never truly came back, I also couldn't fall in love with Starsurge and its weird instant-trigger that would sometimes take a little to activate (despite the tooltip indicating it already being ready).
But man, I loved those wotlk moonkin days, I think you did too, and it showed!
Best wishes for your future,
Moontiger-LotharEU - May 2, 2013 at 6:34 PM
First and foremost, best of luck to you.
Thank you for your expertise, dedication and knowledge on moonkins. I've been a faithful reader for a few years now.
I still remember digging the web around trying to find advice, guidance, something!!! and had not the best of luck... until I found your blog :) .. very very VERY helpful, lots of info. and advice! tips. It really helped me improve my raiding by at 400% at least.
I sent you an email once 'cause another moonkin on my guild was literally kicking my 4ss...that was long time ago. But your blog, comments and recommendations allowed me to improve.
Anyway, is sad to see you go, nevertheless life is life as it is. All of us will do the same eventually.

I do not usually join forums or comment on blogs but this is a time that requires me to.
I am a below average player that loves to raid and I have used your blog to make myself a useful Boomkin to my raid. As a result I have been able to get myself a spot on some very good raid teams.
I have been reading your blog since 2006. I am sad to see you go.
I hope you come back to WoW even if you do not blog at all. Perhaps it's time to just have fun with a game that I suspect became less enjoyable given the amount of time and energy that you have put into it blogging about it.
A huge thank you to you for all the help you have given me over the years. Come back and play this game through to whatever end Blizzard sees for it.
Good luck I cannot thank you enough for your well reasoned articles.

- June 2, 2013 at 12:06 AM
I guess I am a bit late. It is so sad that you will stop blogging since ever since I started my night elf druid (realising that night elves could not be a mage back then) (even before BC?), I have been following your blog just to even have some meager understanding of how to play my character.
Even after I stopped playing during WotLK, I still popped by to read your blogs just to reminiscence every few months.
How to say goodbye without making it sound lame? ._. Good luck? - July 25, 2013 at 8:36 PM
even though I quit playing WOW before Cata came out, i still liked to check out your blog now and then to see what was up in the world of Moonkins. be assured you will leave a huge hole in the wow community with your knowledge and insite into what was formerly the best class in the game. have a good one, and thanks for all that you did.
- August 15, 2013 at 10:50 AM
You will be missed... thank you graylo.

- September 12, 2013 at 1:21 AM
You are greatly missed. Not just your personal insights but also the guidance you provided for myself and other Moonkins. I hope that someday you can return and that we can look forward to reading your blogs about the spec that we all love so much. I hope all is well!

Graylo, you are the moonkin that shaped the destiny of my moonkin. I felt like a failure in Cataclysm. MoP has been much more moonkin friendly. I've missed reading your posts. I've missed reading them big time :( I hope you're doing well.

Back in game after a long break i'm really, really sad because of your goodbye.
Thank you for the great blog you've done! For the inspiring postings, for the BIS lists, for the fun it was to work with all the theorycraft you published!
And all the best wishes for you and your future!

Zoom in and out of geography at levels: US, States or Metro Areas, and Counties within States.
Because this chart is for the United States, you cannot zoom out any further:
Or, you can zoom in to a state or metropolitan area:
When drawn as a "population pyramid," age distribution can hint at patterns of growth. A top heavy pyramid, like the one for Grant County, North Dakota, suggests negative population growth that might be due to any number of factors, including high death rates, low birth rates, and increased emigration from the area. A bottom heavy pyramid, like the one drawn for Orange County, Florida, suggests high birthrates, falling or stable death rates, and the potential for rapid population growth. But most areas fall somewhere between these two extremes and have a population pyramid that resembles a square, indicating slow and sustained growth with the birth rate exceeding the death rate, though not by a great margin.

U.S. drugmaker Pfizer has offered more than $100 billion to acquire its London-based rival, AstraZeneca. Pfizer says it likes AstraZeneca's strong "pipeline" of new drugs. But the American company makes clear it is pursuing the British firm because it wants to lower its tax rate.
All Pfizer has to do is buy the company and move its headquarters to London.
For companies, home isn't necessarily where the heart is — or even where it does most of its business. Sometimes, it's where corporate taxes are lowest.
It used to be easier for companies to keep their legal bases in out-of-the-way places, like Bermuda. It's a practice known as tax inversion, and it was popular until 2004, when Congress changed the law. Now, companies whose ownership is 80 percent based in the U.S. are subject to U.S. taxes.
But tax inversion is coming back in a new form. In the last year, Chiquita, of banana fame, media giant Liberty Global and drug company Perrigo all announced deals to buy foreign companies and shift their headquarters. In each case, it lowered their tax burdens.
"So it's something that is back as a hot thing for some companies to do," says Michael Kirsch, a former international tax counsel for the U.S. Treasury and a law professor at Notre Dame. Kirsch says recent mergers between U.S. companies and foreign firms are aimed at circumventing the restrictions of the 2004 law.
That's because a merger often means the firms fall below the 80 percent domestic ownership threshold.
Kirsch says after the merger, operationally, things don't change much. Executives and personnel of the U.S. company often stay in the U.S.
One of the few downsides, Kirsch says, is public relations. A decade ago, Stanley, the toolmaker, abandoned a tax inversion plan in part because of backlash.
"This was a company that appeals to ... working people in the U.S., and it sells tools and such," Kirsch says. "I think they had more sensitivity to that potential reputational risk."
And AstraZeneca CEO Pascal Soriot echoed that concern Tuesday. He testified before a British parliamentary committee detailing his objections to the Pfizer proposal.
"We are afraid [the concerns over tax inversion] could generate a substantial controversy and potentially delay this merger and potentially impact the reputation of our company as well," Soriot said.
Steve Wamhoff is legislative director of Citizens for Tax Justice, a public advocacy group. He says that should be a concern for Pfizer.
"These corporations are American corporations in every sense of the word," Wamhoff says. "They're doing most of their business in the United States. They're benefiting from the public investments that we all pay for."
Wamhoff is pinning hopes on promises by Sen. Carl Levin, D-Mich., and others to crack down on tax avoidance.
"Pfizer is going to, just by moving some paper around, pretend to be a foreign company and get out of paying their U.S. taxes, and it's absolutely wrong," Wamhoff says. "This hopefully is the sort of thing that will be a catalyst for congressional action."
For Barbara Ryan, the managing director of FTI Consulting, it's more about the need for tax reform and U.S. tax rates being too high. "We live in a global world, and we need to have a tax policy that is more consistent with tax rates outside," she says.
Ryan says once one company does it, the pressure is on for others to follow.
"So I think there's sort of a foot race to maintain competitiveness," she says. "The companies that have done it have an advantage over the companies that haven't yet done it."
So, Ryan says, she expects to see the trend accelerate.

When it comes to girls, there are some standard costumes that you will see year after year at Halloween time. With many of them, girls can wear the costume year round in creative play. Birthday parties year round are starting to have "theme" costumes, as well, and many of these will fit with those beautifully.
Princess – The Disney Girl Princess costume are the most popular out of the girl costumes.
Ballerina – A very simple girls costume of a leotard and a tutu. Best used in warmer climates, as Halloween night can get chilly in some areas. I've found that these costumes often come with wings, making the costume more along the lines of a "Fairy Ballerina".
Blue from Blue's Clues – no matter what you may think, Blue and Magenta are both girls. Most children know this! Blue can sometimes be worn on little boys, though, and Magenta is quite popular with the girls.
Dora the Explorer – What an easy girl costume to either purchase or make yourself! With a simple pink t-shirt, red shorts, yellow socks and white tennis shoes, you have the costume pretty much complete. Add a purple backpack and some jewelry you find at a dollar store and you little girl can be Dora all year long.
My best advice when costuming your child at Halloween is let them choose what they want. Don't make big plans and create a costume for girls, only to turn around and see they want to buy something "cool" from the store. They are not going to have fun in a costume you force them to wear, which will ultimately ruin your night, too.
Nothing elicits a smile better than cute and cuddly children in funny and charming costumes. Dressing up the kids in costumes is more fun than ever with our selection of classy ROCK STAR GIRL COSTUME, PUMPKIN PRINCESS COSTUME, POODLE SKIRT, and ANGEL COSTUME and many many more in toddler to large sizes.. These children costumes are sure hits during the Halloween and the holiday seasons!

Open Letter to Prime Minister Erdoğan: Invest your $5b in digital freedom
In recent weeks, political events in Istanbul have been the focus of international media. Important discussions are taking place about Turkey's government and her people. Several have lost their lives in the process
Days before the protests in Taksim Square erupted, President Erdoğan was in America. On behalf of an ambitious education investment project called FATIH, he toured Silicon Valley as the guest of America's largest technology companies, each of whom are hoping to land a contract for more than 10 million new tablet computers.
As the safety and freedom on the street of Turkey's activists is hotly debated in the press, the safety and freedom of her children to learn has understandably received much less attention. Whether it is publicly discussed or not however, $5 billion will soon be spent on education, and it's impact on the rights of the next generation of Turkey's students will be immense.
FSFE's Education Team is dedicated to empowering students via Free Software. If you think that humans deserve rights over the technology they use, you can add your name to our list of supporters.
The letter
Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan,
Recently you visited America to discuss the acquisition of 10.6 million tablets from leading technology companies for students, on behalf of Turkey's project FATIH.
We urge you to take alternative products into consideration, and consider the impact of the software those tablets use.
Google, Apple, and Microsoft, who hosted you, all tie their tablets to software which would prevent Turkish children from studying and customising it. The companies you spoke to enforce strict proprietary licensing which would ensure that schools could only lease their ability to use applications, not own them or rights to them.
Free Software, contrastingly, protects students' rights to use, study, share, and improve it. In an educational context these rights can make the difference between consumers and creators. Without these freedoms, the 17 million students affected by your plan cannot experiment or develop the understanding necessary to lead digital economies in future.
Software support and maintenance is expensive, and proprietary software exacerbates these costs by restricting who can provide you with services. By using Free Software, Turkish schools would lose their dependency on a single vendor, and competition for service contracts could be more local, and more competitive.
Finally, for better security of both schools and students, Free Software makes its code available, providing evidence of how it functions. This week's revelations surrounding British Government spying on Turkish politicians at the G20 summit highlight the importance of software security and privacy. Educational computers should not provide back-doors for foreign Governments and companies.
Apple, Google and Microsoft all embrace Free Software themselves, and use it internally. Making the step towards Free Software tablets is important however, and several global manufacturers and distributors offer Free Software devices for sale. Will the freedom of Turkey's citizens be considered in your forthcoming decision to purchase tablets?
Please send us your answer, and do not hesitate to contact us should you have further questions about the contents of this letter.
Yours Sincerely,
Sam Tuke, Vicen Rodriguez, Filip Lobik
The Free Software Foundation Europe e.V.

All entered words are connected by operator OR, so you will get only those results that contain all of the words. Results may vary depending on the selected search index, so set it according to your needs.
You can affect the results of the search using the following guidelines:
Quotation marks:
The use of quotation marks forces search for exact phrases, for example, "simple story". In addition, using the ~ character, you can specify the maximum distance between each words, for example, "simple story"~5 - search for "simple story" within 5 words from each other.
Wildcard matching:
Use wildcards if you do not remember the exact phrase that you want to search.
Wildcard can be used at the end or in the middle of a word.
Boolean operators:
We may also use logical operators in more complex query, for example, (simple OR science) NOT chemistry will return results for words simple or science, but do not contain the word chemistry.
