Admission Requirements
Helping you navigate the graduate
school application process.
At Adler University, we take great pride in our diverse student body. Students represent a wide range of professional interests, ethnic and cultural backgrounds, and academic and work histories. We admit individuals with a record of outstanding academic achievement and a commitment to social responsibility.
Admission Requirements
The minimum requirements for admission include:
- A baccalaureate degree from a college or university that is regionally accredited by a nationally recognized accrediting agency, or an equivalent academic degree from a foreign college or university. Please note: if you are nearing completion of a baccalaureate degree, you may apply for early admission contingent upon successful degree completion.
- Fulfillment of minimum admission requirements for your program of choice
- Acceptable proficiency in spoken and written English
Possession of the minimum requirements does not ensure admission. The University reserves the right to admit or deny admission based on the professional judgment of faculty and administration involved in the admission process.
Applying for Admission
To apply to Adler University, please submit the following:
- Online Application for Admission
- Autobiographical essay/personal statement:
- Your personal statement should be a typed (12-pt font), autobiographical essay of no more than three pages double-spaced.
- The statement should include a discussion of your personal and professional experiences up to the present time and your career goals and interests relevant to the degree program for which you are applying.
- Your reasons for applying to Adler University Vancouver Campus.

- Please have official (US and Canadian) transcripts sent directly to the Office of Admissions.
- International transcripts must be evaluated by a transcript evaluation service (www.wes.org or www.ece.org); please contact us for specific transcript translation requirements.
- Three letters of recommendation accompanying the our recommendation form.

*Please note: you are encouraged to submit your online application before submitting your other required documentation to the Office of Admissions.
Application Deadlines
In addition to our early consideration and priority admissions deadlines, Adler University employs a rolling admissions process for all academic programs, which means we continue to accept applications until all spaces in our programs have been filled. While this offers additional time to complete an application, it is important to note that our programs fill early, and securing official transcripts and letters of recommendation can take time.
Adler University's priority application deadline for our Doctor of Psychology in Clinical Psychology (Psy. D.) program is February 15.
Evaluation of Applications
The Admissions Committee evaluates applicants on a number of factors:
- Academic performance
- Content and clarity of written and verbal communication
- Strength of recommendations
- Personal and professional presentation throughout the admissions processes
- Community service interest and/or experience
- Prior professional work experience
- Integrity, motivation, and personal ethics
*Applicants to our Counselling Psychology programs (thesis and non-thesis options), should provide evidence of existing counselling aptitude prior to admission to the program.
Applicants can demonstrate this requirement in various ways including undergraduate counselling skills coursework, supervised counselling experience (such as crisis line training), or other experience deemed relevant by the Admissions Committee.
If we approve your application, you'll interview with a member of our faculty.
Acceptance of Admission
The Director of Admissions and Program Innovation will notify you of acceptance in writing. To complete the process, you must submit the applicable tuition deposit.
Transfer Credit
If accepted for admission, you may receive transfer credit for graduate level courses previously taken at other accredited institutions. You must submit a transfer credit request to the Office of Admissions upon admission to the Adler University. A maximum of 12 credit hours may be transferred into a Master's program. A maximum of 24 semester credits from pervious graduate level coursework that overlaps with the Psy.D. curriculum may be transferred into the Psy.D. program.
Students wishing to transfer from other graduate programs must submit a letter from the dean of their previous program stating they are in good academic standing and free from academic or disciplinary inquiry or action.

(By Delegate White)
(By Request of the State Tax Division)
[Introduced March 20, 2013; referred to the
Committee on the Judiciary then Finance.]
A BILL to amend the Code of West Virginia, 1931, as amended, by adding thereto a new section, designated §16-9D-4a, relating generally to facilitating and enforcing compliance with the Tobacco Master Settlement Agreement; and imposing bonding requirements on certain nonparticipating manufacturers.
Be it enacted by the Legislature of West Virginia:
That the Code of West Virginia, 1931, as amended, be amended by adding thereto a new section, designated §16-9D-4a, to read as follows:
§16-9D-4a. Listing of nonparticipating manufacturers in the West Virginia Tobacco Directory; bonding requirement for nonparticipating manufacturers posing an elevated risk for noncompliance.
_____(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, if a newly qualified nonparticipating manufacturer is to be listed in the directory described in subsection (b), section three of this article, or if the Attorney General reasonably determines that a nonparticipating manufacturer who has filed a certification pursuant to section three of this article poses an elevated risk for noncompliance with the Master Settlement Agreement, neither the nonparticipating manufacturer nor any of its brand families may be included in the directory unless and until the nonparticipating manufacturer has posted a bond in accordance with this section.
_____(b) The bond shall be posted by corporate surety located within the United States in an amount equal to the greater of $25,000 or the amount of escrow the manufacturer, in either its current or predecessor form, was required to deposit as a result of its sales in the previous calendar year in West Virginia. The bond shall be written in favor of the State of West Virginia and shall be conditioned on the performance by the nonparticipating manufacturer of all of its duties and obligations under this article and article nine-d of this chapter during the year in which the certification is filed and the next succeeding calendar year. Duplicate originals of the bond shall be provided to the State Tax Division and the Attorney General.
_____(c) A nonparticipating manufacturer may be considered to pose an elevated risk for noncompliance with this section if:
_____(1) The nonparticipating manufacturer or any affiliate thereof has underpaid an escrow obligation with respect to any state that is a signatory to the Master Settlement Agreement at any time during the calendar year or within the three preceding calendar years unless:
_____(A) The manufacturer did not make underpayment knowingly or recklessly and the manufacturer promptly cured the underpayment within one hundred eighty days' notice of it; or
_____(B) The underpayment or lack of payment is the subject of a good-faith dispute as documented to the satisfaction of the Attorney General and the underpayment is cured within one hundred eighty days of entry of a final order establishing the amount of the required escrow payment;
_____(2) Any state that is a signatory to the Master Settlement Agreement has removed the manufacturer or its brands or brand families or an affiliate or any of the affiliate's brands or brand families from the directory for noncompliance with the state law at any time during the calendar year or within the three preceding calendar years; or
_____(3) Any state that is a signatory to the Master Settlement Agreement has litigation pending against, or an unsatisfied judgment against, the manufacturer or any affiliate thereof for escrow or for penalties, costs, or attorney fees related to noncompliance with state escrow laws.
_____(d) As used in this section, "newly qualified nonparticipating manufacturer" means a nonparticipating manufacturer that has not previously been listed in the directory in the three preceding calendar years. The manufacturer may be required to post a bond in accordance with this section for the first three years of their listing, or for a longer time the Attorney General may require, if the manufacturer has been determined to pose an elevated risk for noncompliance. Any other nonparticipating manufacturer that has been determined to pose an elevated risk for noncompliance shall be required to post a bond in accordance with this section for three years, and shall be required to post a bond for a further period of time the Attorney General may require, in accordance with this section, if the nonparticipating manufacturer still poses an elevated risk at the end of the three-year period.
_____(e) The posted bond shall be forfeited to the West Virginia General Revenue Fund in the event that the manufacturer fails to comply with its Master Settlement Agreement escrow obligations. The amount of the forfeiture shall be equal to the delinquent escrow payments due at the time of forfeiture plus any penalties assessed against the manufacturer based on its failure to fulfill its responsibilities under this article and article nine-d of this chapter.
NOTE: The purpose of this bill is to facilitate compliance with the Tobacco Master Settlement Agreement by requiring nonparticipating tobacco product manufacturers that are new or that have an elevated risk of noncompliance with said statute to post a bond conditioned or their compliance.
§16-9D-4a is new, therefore it has been completely underscored.

Fifty years later.
They came from as near as Baltimore, and as far as Tokyo. They came despite swampy heat and intermittent rain. They came braving heat exhaustion to stand in endless lines before the Secret Service checkpoints. They came in memory of lost loved ones. They came in recognition of ongoing struggle. They came in honor of the great man and the great thing he said. Oscar winners and Grammy winners came. Union leaders and activists came. Three presidents came. Janitors and students came. One man came playing "Battle Hymn of the Republic" on his harmonica.
By the tens of thousands, 50 years later, they came. They descended on this city to mark a milestone: half a century since the storied March on Washington.
Fifty is a turning point year in historical commemoration.
It marks the moment — invisible, unspoken, but no less real — when a thing begins to depart living memory and to become the exclusive property of history. The man who was an adult when Martin Luther King spoke to 250,000 demonstrators from the steps of the Lincoln Memorial is at least in his 70s now or very near. The clock of life expectancy begins more loudly ticking.
After 50, a thing begins to dwindle in public consciousness. So the 60th anniversary commemoration will be smaller than this, the 70th smaller still, the 80th almost non-existent. If you doubt this, try a thought experiment. Consider the huge national commemoration that did not happen when the attack on Pearl Harbor passed its 70th anniversary two years ago. Consider how April 15th — the date Lincoln died — goes by each year with barely a whisper of acknowledgment.
So this is likely the last time we will do this, the last time we will gather en masse, devote so many front pages, web pages and television hours, to considering the March and the four incandescent words Martin Luther King spoke that day, the words that sealed him in history.
"I have a dream."
It is, perhaps, difficult for us to truly understand now how much revolution was packed into those words. King, after all, lived in an America where snarling dogs and high-pressure hoses were used to deny the right to peacefully assemble, billy clubs and poll taxes were used to deny the right to vote, lynch rope and explosives were used to deny the right to speak your mind, law and custom were used to deny the right to be. In a word, he lived in a nightmare.
It takes a certain kind of vision to stand inside a nightmare and speak about a dream.
Fifty years later, as we consign that moment to the ages, the commemorative March on Wednesday was about asking a pregnant question, the same question King asked the year before he was killed:
Where do we go from here?
Fifty years later, we have adopted few if any of the policy positions he called for in the book by that name, and that is not likely to change. Movement toward a guaranteed income, for instance, is close to non-existent. That fact notwithstanding, as speaker after speaker noted Wednesday, we have nevertheless "gone" from the world Dr. King knew into one he could hardly have imagined. The nation's first black president made this point simply by walking to a podium that had already been graced by black celebrities, politicians, media moguls and dignitaries. He made it, too, in celebrating the marchers who followed King into glory.
"Because they kept marching, America changed," Obama said. "Because they marched, city councils changed and state legislatures changed and Congress changed and, yes, eventually, the White House changed."
Regrettably, no Republican official addressed the gathering.
Regrettably, because concern for issues of civil rights ought not be the exclusive property of any one political party. Though the two Presidents Bush were invited, both declined citing health issues. One Republican, Sarah Palin, did offer her thoughts via Twitter.
"May his dream always be reality," she said.
"Always be." Not "Someday become." It was not a formulation that would have found much favor with the crowd at the Mall on Wednesday, complacently taking for granted as it does that all the work toward equality is already done.
By contrast, if one theme was common among all the speakers and all the crowd, it was that there remains much to do. They seemed to agree that while progress must be celebrated, celebration should not blind us to the fact that equality is not yet reality. In their different ways, they all provided the same answer to that question.
Where do we go from here? We go to work.
"The people united will never be defeated!" chanted the marchers.
I AM A MAN declared a sign, in imitation of the striking sanitation workers King was helping to organize when he died.
Jamie Foxx powerfully challenged his generation of black entertainers to emulate the political courage of their forebears.
Bill Clinton called on Americans to no longer "whine" about political gridlock. "It is time to stop complaining," he said, "and put our shoulders against the stubborn gates holding the American people back."
U.S. Rep. John Lewis, the only surviving speaker from the 1963 March, noted that though the old segregation signs came down long ago, "there are still invisible signs, barriers in the hearts of humankind that form a gulf between us."
President Obama challenged blacks not to allow bigotry or poverty to be excuses not to raise our children right and teach our children well.
The immortal Shirley Caesar took the congregation to church with a gritty, old-school rendition of a gospel standard whose lyrics were perfect for 50 years later. "My soul looks back," she sang, "and wonders how I got over."
Gender equality, the rights of gay men and lesbians, the need to provide a pathway to citizenship for undocumented immigrants, the gutting of the Voting Rights Act, were all recurring themes. Trayvon Martin was there.
And a bell was rung. This was at 3 o'clock, 50 years, to the moment, that King began to speak. It was metaphor turned real, abstraction made solid. Because in his speech, he evoked a bell.
Let freedom ring, said King, "from the prodigious hilltops of New Hampshire ... from the mighty mountains of New York ... from the curvaceous slopes of California.
"But not only that," he said. "Let freedom ring from Stone Mountain of Georgia. Let freedom ring from Lookout Mountain of Tennessee. Let freedom ring from every hill and molehill of Mississippi. From every mountainside, let freedom ring."
The bell they used Wednesday was, they said, salvaged from 16th Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, Ala., where, 18 days after the 1963 march, terrorists set off a bomb that killed four little girls in Sunday School.
Wednesday, they struck the old bell and it gave forth a hard, metallic clang that traveled out over that audience of tens of thousands, a mass of people that looked very much like America, black and white and Hispanic and Asian and gay and straight and Jew and Christian and Muslim and man and woman, each with a dream of his or her own.
"Let freedom ring," said Martin Luther King, 50 years ago.
And for just that moment, it kind of felt like it did.

Up one level: |
The University minimum requirements for the coterminal bachelor's/master's program are as follows:
For the 45-unit University minimum for the master's degree, all courses must be at or above the 100 level and 50 percent must be courses designated primarily for graduate students (typically at least at the 200 level). Department requirements may be higher. Units for a given course may not be counted to meet the requirements of more than one degree, that is, no units may be double-counted. No courses taken more than two quarters prior to admission to the coterminal master's program may be used to meet the 45-unit University minimum requirement for the master's degree.
Tuition Rate for Graduate EngineeringThe tuition rate for graduate Engineering is higher than for undergraduate programs. Students enrolled in a coterminal program in the School of Engineering begin to pay the higher graduate Engineering tuition rate after 12 full-tuition undergraduate quarters.
Coterminal students in the School of Engineering, with two undergraduate degrees, are assessed the graduate Engineering tuition rate in the quarter after they have been enrolled for 15 full-tuition quarters.
Engineering coterminal students would also start paying the graduate Engineering tuition rate if any undergraduate degree is conferred or if they are granted any graduate aid. Once charged under the graduate Engineering tuition schedule, the tuition will not revert thereafter to the undergraduate rate.
For additional information on the coterminal bachelor's/master's program, see Coterminal Bachelor's and Master's Degrees in the "Undergraduate Degrees and Programs" section of this bulletin.

Are rational beliefs constrained by formal logic? This book argues that if beliefs are seen in a binary way (either one believes a proposition or one doesn't), then the standard constraints of 'deductive cogency' (i.e. deductive consistency and deductive closure) are incompatible with epistemic rationality. If, however, beliefs are seen as graded, or coming in degrees, a probabilistic constraint (based on standard logic) is imposed by ideal rationality. This constraint, probabilistic coherence, explains both the appeal of the standard deductive constraints and the power of deductive arguments. ... More

Emile Durkheim sez:

Mon. 3/7/11 4:54am
Adam from Chicago:
I had the dubious pleasure of attending the premiere of R. Kelly's "Trapped in the Closet, Chapters 13-22" at the Music Box in Chicago. He's as unstable in person as one might ever speculate, screaming at the staff and management of a venerable art house after making them start late and him overloading the sound that DVD projection could bear, etc. Good suit, though. | |
Mon. 3/7/11 5:17am
Emile Durkheim also sez:
Any school system is made up of two kinds of components. On the one hand, there are a whole series of fixed stable arrangements and established methods, in a word, institutions; but, at the same time, within the machine thus constituted, there are underlying ideas at work, urging it to change. Seen from the outside, secondary education appears to us as a series of establishments whose physical and moral organization is fixed; but, seen from another angle, that same organization harbours aspirations seeking fulfilment. Underlying this fixed, consolidated existence there is a life on the move which, though less visible, is by no means insignificant | |

Clearly believing in the "Go Big Or Go Home" school of thought, Marvel Entertainment brought a big surprise for fans at the very end of their big Comic-Con panel at Hall H: Avengers writer Joss Whedon appeared onstage, telling that he had one small thing to tell the audience: the name of the next Avengers movie, which will be titled The Avengers: Age of Ultron and headed to theaters in May 2015.
The studio also revealed footage of both Captain America: The Winter Soldier and, to the surprise of many, Guardians of the Galaxy, despite the fact that the latter had only been shooting for thirteen days.
The panel was also filled with stars. Captain America himself, Chris Evans, was in attendance, along with Scarlet Johansson, Samuel L. Jackson, Cobie Smulders, Sebastian Stan (Bucky from the first movie, and the titular "Winter Soldier," and newcomers Frank Grillo (villain Brock Rumlow), Emily Van Camp and Anthony Mackie, who'll play new hero the Falcon in the movie.
Tom Hiddleston's appearance in full Loki drag was just the first of many surprises at the panel; he was there to introduce exclusive footage of November's Thor: The Dark World, and did so in spectacular fashion, telling the crowd to kneel and chant his name. (They did so, of course.)
After that, seeing the Captain America cast–and directors Anthony and Joe Russo–was almost an anti-climax, but they also brought footage from The Winter Soldier to share with the audience that offered some (literally) kick-ass action along with a 1970s vibe. Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige said that Cap and Black Widow really share the movie–Winter Soldier not only brings Bucky to the present day, but also offers a level of political intrigue that underscores the moral complexity of today's world, according to the cast. Could The Winter Soldier follow Iron Man 3's lead and actually be a traditional thriller pretending to be a big summer superhero flick?
Then the Guardians of The Galaxy cast appeared onstage, accompanied by director James Gunn: Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Dave Bautista, Lee Pace, Michael Rooker, Benicio del Toro, Karen Gillan (now bald, as she revealed by pulling off a wig midway through the panel to some surprise) and Djimon Honsou. All of them were literally in town just for that panel, flying in and out to London in the same day. As someone who's "enjoyed" those transatlantic 12-hour flights, that's not a fun round-trip at all, so they all deserved the rapturous applause they received on arrival.
Despite only having been filming for 13 days, there was Guardians footage to share with the crowd–footage that, according to Marvel, would not appear online (sorry, internet). Suffice to say, it was not what many expected: A weird, funny look at the different members of the team, including Drax, Gamora, Rocket Raccoon and Groot, set to the tune of "Hooked On A Feeling."
Gunn told a press conference later that the movie is really focused on "a family coming together: a group of individuals who have acted selfishly and only selfishly throughout their life, and what brings them together as heroes." How selfishly? "When we meet these characters, they're thieves, they're murderers, they're assassins," Saldana explained. "This is the anti-hero hero movie."
"They call themselves the Guardians," says John C. Reilly as Rhomann Dey in the footage. "What a bunch of assholes," his coworker replies.
Talking to the press after the panel, Gunn said he thinks that it'll be "a really unique movie," adding "I don't think of it as darkly comedic. I do think of it as me." Although both Guardians of the Galaxy characters Groot and Rocket Raccoon appeared in the trailer, neither spoke. Asked after the panel whether or not he wanted to share the voice casting of Rocket anytime soon, Gunn promised, "Pretty soon. Not now-ish. Tomorrow, next week-ish. Next month-ish?"
Given that the Marvel Movieverse doesn't have a Hank Pym–the guy who, in the comics, built the original incarnation of the robotic psychopath–it's unknown how the movie is going to introduce Ultron. Start your speculation engines now as to whether or not it'll tie into the recent comic Age of Ultron comic in some way.
Update: In several interviews after the announcement, Whedon clarified that Age of Ultron will be based on a classic origin story for the villain, not the recent comic book miniseries, and that the presence of Hank Pym was not mandatory in order to introduce Ultron.

Every year I host a luncheon to welcome spring. I like to surprise my friends and leave them with a special memory. This delicious cake does the trick.

Would you say that over the past three decades (since about the mid-1980s) the percentage of people in the world who live in extreme poverty — defined as living on less than $1.25 per day — has:
A) Increased
B) Decreased
C) remained the same
The right answer is B: extreme poverty has decreased by more than half. Yet according to a recent Barna Group survey more than eight in 10 Americans (84 percent) are unaware global poverty has reduced so drastically, and more than two-thirds (67 percent) say they thought global poverty has risen during that period.
Additionally, more than two-thirds of US adults (68 percent) say they do not believe it's possible to end extreme global poverty within the next 25 years. One exception to this pessimism is practicing Christians. Defined by Barna as people who have attended a church service in the past month and say their religious faith is very important in their life, practicing Christians under 40 are the most optimistic at nearly half (48 percent), with practicing Christians over 40 slightly higher than the general population (37 percent compared to 32 percent of all adults).
The reason for the pessimism about eradicating extreme poverty generally fall into one of five categories:
(1) 21 percent believe poverty is simply inevitable and will always exist;
(2) 20 percent don't think enough people care about the issue;
(3) 17 percent feel there is not enough of a collective global effort;
(4) 17 percent can't get past the enormity of the problem; or
(5) 14 percent do not trust what they see as corrupt governments in impoverished countries.
Concern is warranted; pessimism is not. The eradication of extreme poverty in the next few decades is a very real possibility. But we must first get the message out about what has been done and what more needs to be done in the future. A good place to start is with this video by Steve Davies of LearnLiberty. Davis explains why we've made progress and how in the near future we can do even more.

Creation Makes Better Science
Many people have been taught that evolution is science and creation is religion. However, the origins debate is really a debate between two religions. According to the evolutionist's own rules of science, evolution is not good science. Consider the claims of evolution in view of what science knows today.
Life has never been seen to develop from nonliving materials. Yet, evolutionists say it did. Mutations, said by evolutionists to have created all the kinds of living things, have never been seen to produce one creature that was more complex or better able to survive. The moon has moonquakes, a magnetic field and internal heat. These are all indications that it is far younger than evolutionists care to believe. Geological strata were at one time sediments in water – floodwaters. Evolutionists believe that the multiple layers of sedimentary rock were laid down one after another by local floods with millions of years between each flood. If that is true, how is it that these strata are often found showing the lower strata blending into the strata above it?
If language evolved, why are the most ancient languages the most complex? If religions evolved, why do the most ancient forms of religion worship one God – a Creator – while later forms of the same religions have many gods – gods who are much more like human beings?
Many more examples show that only the Bible's account of history makes sense in view of what we know.

Basically, I just wanted a stereo with a USB port that would work with all the music on my Droid Razr. This thing is super picky about working with USB. I've gotten it to work with a small flash drive, but it does not work with a portable hard drive, a Creative Zen micro mp3 player (in regular mode or in usb storage mode), and most importantly, as the previous reviewer said, does not work with Android!! Which is the main reason i purchased this! The sound is pretty good overall; there is a seven band EQ that allows for lots of fine tuning the sound. However, the bass is overall significantly weaker than the stock radio of a 2000 corolla. Of note also is that all the settings are buried in a menu; there are no quick adjustments to treble or bass without delving into the EQ menu. Overall, its a decent unit, and makes a great CD player. Too bad they falsely advertise it to work with Android phones.

This does not work with Android! Buyer beware!
By Sparky1080
from Undisclosed
This stereo claims to work with Android but, neither the Samsung Galaxy S3 or the Razr are recognized by the stereo. Iphone works fine but none of the Androids. The phones are in MSC mode as the instructions say but, it still does not work and tech support is of no help. After an hour of trying to get me off the chat session, the tech's final solution was to wait for a firmware upgrade to send it in for service! As I said before, THIS DOES NOT WORK WITH ANDROID!!!!!!

Clinton and Lynette Hamblin have bought the full-scale rendition of the house in Disney's animated film 'Up' in Herriman, Utah.
SALT LAKE TRIBUNE Enlarge
SALT LAKE CITY -- Two self-described Disney "fanatics" have purchased a house in Utah modeled after the colorful home featured in the animated movie Up.
Discovering the house in the Salt Lake City suburb of Herriman, Utah, was a dream come true for Clinton and Lynette Hamblin of Petaluma, Calif. The couple had been looking for a house with some of the same flourishes as the one in the movie, such as a multicolored exterior or a blue kitchen with retro appliances.
They initially looked in California until they saw news reports about the house in Utah that included every possible detail from the movie and was even officially recognized as the Up house by Disney.
Even more surprising was the $400,000 price tag, which was less than homes they looked at in California.
For them, however, the real attraction to the house was it underscored the overriding theme of the movie.
"We just love the message of the movie -- adventure is out there," Lynette Hamblin told the Salt Lake Tribune.
The house is modeled on its appearance early in the movie, when Carl and Ellie Frederickson are flush with the optimism of newlyweds.
That was before infertility undid their hopes for a family and Ellie's death left Carl a curmudgeonly recluse who refuses to succumb to developers and sell his house.
Herriman City spokesman Nicole Martin said about 45,000 people have visited the home for tours, and will continue to do so through the month of December.
City leaders even recently passed a resolution honoring the house for its economic impact.
The Hamblins plan to move into the home after closing Jan. 4, which happens to be Ms. Hamblin's birthday.

HK moves closer to OECD benchmark on tax agreements
Tax authorities from Brunei, the Netherlands, Indonesia, Hungary, Kuwait, Austria, Britain, Ireland and the mainland can seek information on local taxpayers under a growing network of bilateral tax treaties that aims to bring the city in line with international standards.
The nine comprehensive double taxation agreements are three short of the 12 needed to satisfy Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, or OECD, requirements. The treaties must adopt the latest OECD standards on the exchange of information.
The ability to request data on overseas taxpayers is very appealing, especially to authorities from countries that levy high rates of tax on income. Attention is increasingly being focused on taxpayers abroad as governments face ballooning budget deficits amid the global downturn and European debt crisis.
With similar tax agreements expected to be signed with Japan in the coming one or two weeks and with France very soon, Hong Kong could grow its network of tax treaties to about 20 this year.
But this is a relatively small number, considering the mainland has about 90 such agreements while Singapore, Japan and Thailand have more than 50 each, Ayesha Macpherson, head of tax at accounting firm KPMG in Hong Kong, said.
Despite the growing network of tax treaties, there are glaring omissions, like the US, a key trading partner for Hong Kong. Macpherson said countries that levy high rates of tax on income may be reluctant to sign a CDTA since such agreements usually result in lower withholding tax, which is the amount deducted from income, such as royalties, to pay taxes. While gaining the ability to request data on overseas taxpayers is attractive, some governments may have overlooked this point, Macpherson said.
Since Hong Kong adopts the territorial principle of taxation, which only taxes income sourced locally, and does not tax capital gains or dividends paid on stocks, Hong Kong has only the exchange of tax information to negotiate a CDTA with. However, local tax authorities must first notify the taxpayer involved and share the information being requested.
Since March, Hong Kong has ratified CDTAs in quick succession. Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury Professor Chan Ka-keung will sign the agreement with Britain in London today and with Ireland in Dublin tomorrow.
The existing treaty with the mainland was recently upgraded to incorporate the latest OECD standards.
Negotiations are under way to upgrade existing treaties with Vietnam, Belgium, Luxembourg and Thailand to the newest standards while local tax authorities have reached agreement on CDTAs with Japan, Switzerland and Liechtenstein. Talks commence this year on tax treaties with Malaysia, Spain, United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia.
Taxing times
Hong Kong currently has nine bilateral tax treaties with other countries
The number of agreements required to satisfy OECD requirements is: 12

In a country of more than 180 million, there will always be huge potential for a booming economy. Indeed, in 2011 Pakistan was predicted to become a new global economic powerhouse for the 21st century, but social crises and nearby conflict have stifled growth.
IFC is supporting development in Pakistan by championing entrepreneurs, supporting micro finance institutions, and helping develop infrastructure.
Our Strategy
IFC's strategy in Pakistan is a direct response to the challenges facing the private sector in the country, which limit the growth of micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs). IFC has been focusing on mobilizing investments in energy (including renewable power) and infrastructure, expanding access to finance to MSMEs, and helping create jobs.
In a difficult security and economic environment, IFC has played a strong counter-cyclical role in Pakistan in the last five years, reflected in increased commitments and largely driven by short term trade finance facilities and investments in infrastructure, especially power.
To date, IFC has made cumulative investments worth $5.2 billion in Pakistan. In fiscal year 2014, we committed $453 million in the country, including $23 million in mobilization from other investors and lenders. Our current committed portfolio stands at $960 million and represents IFC's second-largest country portfolio in the Middle East and North Africa.
IFC's advisory services program in Pakistan is also one of the largest in the region, with over 40 projects and a funding commitment of over $20 million. Advisory services are particularly active in enhancing access to finance for MSMEs, the capacity building of small businesses, improving corporate governance, creating a better business environment, and promoting clean energy.
For the next few years, IFC is expected to invest about $500 million per year in the country, 50 percent of which will be in trade finance with the remaining focused on infrastructure, especially renewable power, financial markets, agribusiness, manufacturing, and services. We will also continue to support local banks through equity stakes, and risk sharing facilities with a focus on MSMEs. IFC is also looking to actively support the government's renewed privatization agenda.
IFC has played a significant role in Pakistan's power sector by contributing to the generation of over 3,500 MW through generation and distribution projects—which has helped approximately 12 million people—and promoting renewable and clean energy.
Recognizing the energy crisis facing the country, IFC has ramped up its investments in the energy sector, especially in renewable power. Since fiscal year 2010, IFC has committed to five power projects worth $230 million, including the country's first private hydro power project, Laraib, and the first internationally financed wind power project, Zorlu Energy. In addition we have financed the first privatized power utility in the country, KESC. Last year we helped mobilize $168 million, of which $148 million was for Star Hydro Power to support the construction of a private hydro-power project. We also provided a $10 million long-term loan for the first LEED certified green building in the country.
Infrastructure, with a focus on renewable energy, will remain a key focus of IFC's investment strategy and public private partnership (PPP) transactions are expected to play a big role in this sector, especially in the privatization of state owned enterprises. In addition, we are also helping facilitate the construction of multigrain storage facilities in the provinces of Punjab and Sindh.
Due to the scale of investment and reforms required to address Pakistan's energy crisis, IFC and the World Bank are pursuing a strategy of coordinated collaboration, and are developing a transformational and high impact program to support the country over the next five years. This collaboration will be articulated in the joint Country Partnership Framework (CPF), expected to be presented by the end of fiscal year 2013. In addition to financing large public sector hydro projects, the World Bank is taking the lead on policy reforms in the power sector; IFC aims to mobilize large private investments in new low-cost power generation and provide support to privatization through its PPP advisory.
Our trade finance program is one of the largest in the region, with cumulative commitments of about $2 billion. The program, which is largely supporting MSMEs, is helping Pakistani companies access new markets. In 2013, we provided $343 million to 12 local banks, and this year we are working on an import finance facility to support the government's oil imports.
On the advisory side, IFC is working to improve Pakistan's business environment in a number of different ways. Most notably, we facilitated the establishment of Pakistan's first mediation center to help resolve commercial disputes quickly and amicably, lessening the burden on the country's courts. Under our corporate governance program we have trained 2,135 board directors and senior managers, while the business edge initiative has provided management skills training to 1,069 MSMEs and 6,203 individuals, nearly a quarter of whom were women.
We have worked to integrate the microfinance sector in the country's credit reporting scheme, part of a wider effort to extend access to finance to entrepreneurs. Furthermore, we have been providing MSME banking advisory so that client banks can improve their outreach to the MSME sector, including low-income farmers, providing them with services tailored to their needs.
Our access to finance investments and advisory services programs are contributing to job creation in the country, as demonstrated in a recent study undertaken with one of our largest client banks—Habib Bank Limited (HBL). The results, based on a sample of over 100 MSMEs who received financing from HBL in 2009, reveal that these businesses were able to create new jobs with a compound growth rate of 9.7 percent, despite the difficult macro-economic conditions prevailing in the country. The overall findings are encouraging, and help endorse IFC's strategy of focusing on increasing access to finance in Pakistan. It also reaffirms that small businesses are vital for employment generation, private sector development, and inclusion.

"This is not a distraction, this is what this campaign is going to be about," President Obama said Monday at the NATO summit. The "this" in question is Mitt Romney's tenure at Bain Capital and what it says about Romney's economic vision for the country.
Team Romney should have seen this coming. If Newt Gingrich and Rick Perry were willing to rip Romney for being too capitalistic in the Republican primary, it doesn't take a lot of imagination to expect that Obama and Vice President Joe Biden would happily do the same in the general election.
And Obama has a point. If you are going to campaign on the idea that you were a private-sector job creator, it's certainly fair game for your opponents to investigate the claim. Now, I think the Obama campaign's specific charges and accusations regarding Bain Capital are spurious and unfair -- as did, say, Newark Mayor Corey Booker, before he was forced to recant his heresy.
There are real political dangers for Obama in making himself the attack-dog-in-chief. Not only is it contrary to his admittedly tattered post-partisan brand, but voters may reasonably conclude that the president is focusing on Romney's record to change the subject from his own.
Still, he's not entirely wrong. Nor is Washington Post columnist E.J. Dionne, who hopes the Bain brouhaha will spark a deeper debate about what kind of capitalism we want. Borrowing a term from Germany's Christian Democrats -- one widely accepted across much of Europe -- Dionne says we need to build a "social market" as opposed to what he calls an "anti-social market."
"Social" is one of those loaded terms that sounds pleasant enough but presupposes a very large role for the state in our lives. For instance, "Julia," the fictional Everywoman the Obama campaign is touting as the typical beneficiary of progressive government, lives in a social market. And, therefore, the government heavily influences not just her wages and health care but her career, recreational activities and even her childbearing decisions. "Under President Obama: Julia decides to have a child," one slide explains with a dry creepiness.
It's telling but not remotely surprising that Dionne looks to Europe, home of the cradle-to-grave welfare state, as the inspiration for the kind of capitalism he wants here. European capitalism has things to recommend it, particularly if you have a job -- especially a government job -- and can live your life before the bill for the social market comes due, as it has in, say, Greece.
One microcosm of the social market at work has been Wisconsin's public sector, where the generous perks and benefits of government work have crippled the state's ability to govern. That's why Madison, the spiritual home of the progressive movement, has looked a bit like a modern Greek city-state ever since Gov. Scott Walker took it upon himself to reform the system. The champions of the social market have not only thrown the kitchen sink at him in an effort to protect their ideals and their perks, they've brought in sinks from across the country to rain down upon him. And yet, it looks as if he will triumph next month in the recall effort.
Not entirely by Obama's design, for the last few years America's labor market has looked pretty European. We don't have the mobs of unemployed and unemployable youths loitering in the vain hope that some state worker will die or retire so they can take his place. But we're not that far off either. Workers don't want to leave their jobs because they have no faith they'll find another. Few firms want to create new positions because they don't know if the market will sustain them.
Under normal circumstances, the U.S. economy creates tens of millions of jobs every year and destroys tens of millions, with net new jobs. In a typical year, up to 50 million Americans change jobs, often happily. They get hired away, promoted, etc.
This process partly explains why America's capitalism has been so much more dynamic than Europe's. In the social market, once you have a job, you cling to it because you may never get another. European governments make it much easier to cling to that job by punishing businesses that fire people. The unhappy byproduct of such "compassion" is that businesses are also far more reluctant to hire people because each new hire is a potential long-term liability.
Yes, Romney created jobs while he was creating value and wealth at Bain; he also destroyed jobs. Both are necessary in a dynamic market that improves the prospects for most Americans through economic growth. Some suffer from the process. But I would argue more people suffer under the social market. Which system is better is, indeed, a worthy -- and overdue -- debate.

Falling in Love with Food
After years of physical suffering and not knowing what was wrong with me, I had been ecstatic to find the food that loved me back. Blessed with a website that helped people, as well as a new career in food writing, I had found my life in food. And then, almost a year to the day after my celiac diagnosis, I found the Chef.
We fell in love at first sight. When we began talking, we felt like friends. Sure, there was enormous physical attraction, but that was not the deepest flavour. Instead, we tasted comfort. Talking with him felt like keeping my hand wrapped around a warm cup of coffee. Our conversation tasted like potato-leek soup, like apple crisp, like coq au vin just out of the oven. We wafted vanilla and sugar between us. We devoured each other's words.
Food is fuel for our relationship. It is one of the languages we both speak. When he starts to cook, we don't talk. I do some dishes behind him, but mostly, I sit and watch, as he bends and listens to food in the skillet. He pinches salt between his fingers and dashes until the flavours start to sing. He plates our meal, his face wide with excitement, because he knows how much I'm going to love his food.
He is the executive chef at a Seattle restaurant – Impromptu Bistro – that in the past year has become almost completely gluten-free. Someone recently asked the Chef how he could change his French-inspired cuisine to never use flour or wheat. What he said was: "You meet this woman. You hold her in your arms, you fall in love with her. And then you find out that there's something in your food that makes her sick. You teach yourself to adapt."
One evening last June, the Chef made us a spectacular dinner. Pan-roasted beef tenderloin, on top of mashed potatoes, with a port-balsamic-veal-stock reduction sauce, with balsamic onions and soft chevre on top. Just before we ate, he started to slice up some bread to go with his meal.
Now, I'd never made a fuss about him eating gluten. But if he ate bread, he would have to brush his teeth before we could kiss. Just the breadcrumbs in his mouth would make me sick. That night, feeling close to him, I complained, "Do you have to eat bread tonight?"
Without turning around, he said, "Honey, you're marrying a chef. You're going to have to get used to the fact that he's going to eat bread."
What? I said. "What did you just say?"
He turned red, and said, "I said that I'm going to eat bread." We danced around the kitchen, giggling, not saying it.
Later, in the middle of our meal – glorious, every flavor alive – he slipped down onto one knee. We laughed, and then I started crying.
Yes, I said. Yes.
Soon, we will be wed, in a large field with blackberries growing wild along the edges. One hundred of our closest friends will celebrate with us, in Discovery Park. It feels like the right name – every bite, and every moment we spend together, feels like a discovery.
And of course, the entire wedding will be gluten-free.

Let's just preface this post by saying it's about dis tracks, so if you're NSFW averse, turn back now. Okay, now that we have the housecleaning out of the way, there is already a rap diss track about Donald Sterling titled "Donald Sterling: Racist Muthafucka." It's by the artist Plies (please read this Q&A on how he got his name), and it bumps pretty hard.
Deadspin notes that Sterling is also mentioned in a verse by Cassidy (2:30 mark below), though it doesn't have that same je ne sais quoi as Plies' takedown.

A last-minute tweak lawmakers made in 2012 that has angered St. Johns County officials would be wiped from the books under language passed Wednesday by the Senate.
Though an amendment was tacked onto a larger growth management bill, state Sen. John Thrasher, R-St. Augustine, is trying to eliminate a change passed last year that gave "agriculture enclave" status to 607-acres in St. Johns County.
The St. Augustine Record reported in March that the new designation would help pave the way for a housing development proposed by property owner Joe Anderson, who also owns powerful road construction company Anderson-Columbia.
Because the amendment would be applied retroactively, though, Senate staff has said it could be unconstitutional.
"To the extent that the provisions of this bill may be applied retroactively, provisions of the bill may prompt concerns regarding the unconstitutional impairment of contract," read a staff analysis of SB 529, which is carrying Thrasher's amendment.
Thrasher said he was not aware the amendment was tacked onto a larger growth management bill in 2012. It was placed onto the larger bill four minutes before it was passed out of the Senate.
"This amendment was put on a bill during the last hour of the last day last year that my county has objected to," Thrasher said before the Senate voted on his amendment. "I'm asking you to restart the thing and start over again, so my county can have some control over these projects."
In 2012, the change was the subject of separate legislation that never got momentum, and negotiations with groups like the Florida Association of Counties were going on behind-the-scenes throughout last year's legislative session.
Proponents of the change said that Anderson had to turn to the legislature after trying for two years to get an answer from the county.
"Mr. Anderson feels like the County has him over a barrel and he has no other alternative than to ask the Legislature to make the county deal with him in a fair manner," wrote Anderson Columbia lobbyists Jim Eaton in a 2012 email to Thrasher's office.
"As a property owner and taxpayer, he has rights, too," he added.
In public meetings, county officials have hammered the move.
"No local government wants the Legislature to step in and tell you what to do with a piece of property," Assistant County Administrator Darrell Locklear said in October.
Thrasher said that his office received the email, which included a breakdown of the provision, a day before the final vote, but he never saw the information.
The House is not currently considering similar agriculture enclave language, but that chamber can pass the Senate's version.
