HMRC's direct recovery of debt powers bring in £178m tax
17 Apr 2019
HMRC is claiming the new direct recovery of debt (DRD) powers to recover money owed directly from individuals' bank and building society accounts have raised £178m of tax revenue, against a background of a low volume of complaints, objections or appeals, with the majority settling before direct intervention was needed
17 Apr 2019
DRD was fully implemented into HMRC's operational process at the end of March 2016, and the tax authority has now provided a review of the first two years of activity, as required under the legislation. When the extension of powers was first introduced, there was strong oppostion from accountants and tax advisers with concerns about abuse of the system.
The report covers the period from April 2016 until December 2018. HMRC says £178m of outstanding tax debt has been successfully collected, the vast majority after initial contact by letter or phone and before a face-to-face visit.
There were a total of 22,667 cases during that time. Just 1,576 information notices were issued, marking the start of the DRD intervention with a request to an individual's bank to check monies. There were then 45 hold notices, where HMRC indicates it plans to take money from an account, and just 20 deduction notices.
Over the two years, HMRC took action by removing money directly from a bank account 19 times, collecting £361,678 in total.
HMRC says this shows DRD has a significant deterrent effect, resulted in payment being recovered early in the DRD process, and is the reason why in only a small number of cases did deductions have had to be made by HMRC.
For the year 2016/17, HMRC anticipated collecting £45m in debt, and actually brought in £44.8m. For 2017/18 the estimate of £45m was substantially exceeded, with HMRC collecting £72.6m. In 2018/19, up to December last year HMRC had collected £60.7m.
As part of its powers, HMRC is charged with identifying 'vulnerable' individuals, and identified a total of 42 vulnerable taxpayers through the DRD process. It says this low figure confirms that current practices, including existing upstream debt management processes, have successfully mitigated against DRD action being used on individuals who may be vulnerable.
As regards objections by taxpayers, the main reasons given were either disputing the tax debt owed or on the grounds of exceptional hardship. Of the eight objections received, seven were not upheld, as an independent review team determined that the correct course of action had been taken. One objection was upheld, as the debtor was able to provide additional evidence of hardship beyond that which they had initially provided to HMRC, so DRD action was stopped.
Of the eight debtors who lodged objections, three took further action by applying to the county courts to appeal HMRC's decision.
Of these three appeals, one resulted in the cancellation of DRD action and the debtor being repaid the payment deducted, as the debtor had applied to the courts on the penultimate day of the appeal window without notifying HMRC, so HMRC deducted the payment without knowing it was under appeal.
Another appeal case saw the debtor agreeing to pay the outstanding tax debt owed, and the third failed on the basis that the debtor had not provided sufficient evidence for hardship.
In order to address the issue highlighted in the first appeal, HMRC has amended its process by adding an extra three working days for the debtor to receive the letter before taking DRD action, contacting the debtor by telephone once that time is up to advise that deduction is about to take place, and adding to the objection reply letter a request for the debtor to contact HMRC immediately if they file an appeal at court.
HMRC stated in the report: 'The DRD intervention has achieved its policy objectives and has provided HMRC with a crucial lever in tackling those debtors who deliberately choose not to pay their tax debts, while being able to afford to do so.
'The low level of complaints, objections and appeals, the extremely low level of these being upheld, and the small proportion of vulnerable customers identified further confirm that the correct debtors are being taken through formal DRD processes.'

Changes in materialism, changes in psychological well-being: Evidence from three longitudinal studies and an intervention experiment. Motivation and Emotion,38(1), 1-22. The Netherlands: Springer. Retrieved from https://doi.org/10.1007/s11031-013-9371-4
Few studies have examined how changes in materialism relate to changes in well-being; fewer have experimentally manipulated materialism to change well-being. Studies 1, 2, and 3 examined how changes in materialistic aspirations related to changes in well-being, using varying time frames (12 years, 2 years, and 6 months), samples (US young adults and Icelandic adults), and measures of materialism and well-being. Across all three studies, results supported the hypothesis that people's well-being improves as they place relatively less importance on materialistic goals and values, whereas orienting toward materialistic goals relatively more is associated with decreases in well-being over time. Study 2 additionally demonstrated that this association was mediated by changes in psychological need satisfaction. A fourth, experimental study showed that highly materialistic US adolescents who received an intervention that decreased materialism also experienced increases in self-esteem over the next several months, relative to a control group. Thus, well-being changes as people change their relative focus on materialistic goals.

Ricky Road Run has been a proud charity fundraising event for over 30 years. Here are the charities we are supporting this year.
Essex & Herts Air Ambulance, unlike NHS emergency services, is a charity providing a free life-saving Helicopter Emergency Medical Service (HEMS) for the critically ill and injured of Essex, Hertfordshire, and surrounding areas. It costs £9 million every year to cover all charitable costs and aircraft operations. Without access to National Lottery funding and with only limited support from Government, they rely upon the generosity and goodwill of the people and businesses of Essex and Hertfordshire to remain operational and keep saving lives…they can't fly without you!
WaterAid is an international non governmental organisation that transforms lives by improving access to safe water, hygiene and sanitation in the world's poorest communities. The charity works with partners and influences decision-makers to maximise its impact. WaterAid's vision is of a world where everyone has access to safe water and sanitation.
Affinity Water has been an active supporter of WaterAid for many years. Through the support of our employees, customers, and partners we raise vital funds for WaterAid's work throughout the year and donate funds raised through the Ricky Road Run to WaterAid projects overseas.
The Ricky Road Run is the longest standing event raising money for WaterAid and we are proud to be have been involved since 1984. This has enabled thousands of people to gain access to clean water.

text: Driving to work at 6.20am on fm1626. it is pitch dark at that time and i noticed twould bluish lights ahead. thought they looked unusual. i keep driving, first thinking they weren't moving, and so i thought it was and airplane facing me. you know how they can look immobile when facing you. i got closer and thought no that's not a plane, maybe a helicopter? no as i got closer i finally thought maybe two drones are being flown because the lights looked like large bluish led lights. this all happened over the course of me driving about 2 miles at 50 mph. i slowed down as i got closer and once i was passing it i could tell that it was a dark triangle almost as dark as the sky, and that it was triangular because the third light was then visible in back. the object remained motionless the entire time. i'm not sure that anyone else saw it. traffic was abnormally light this morning. but there were no clouds blocking my view. it seemed to be about 500ft away on the east side of the road. object didn't make any noise. i lost sight of it as i drove by. the entire time i was driving to it, i kept thinking this is something someone else is flying etc. but sure enough it wasn't an airplane, helicopter or drone. very solid and dark looking.

This time on yummy sunday I'm sharing a tasty discovery: MANTI (Ravioli of Turkey)
These are very small meat-filled pockets of yummyness. Trust me you will love them! I have not made them myself but if you feel brave you can find the recipe here; or if you happen to be in Darmstadt you can visit Cafe Padishah – they will make them fresh just for you!
Its yummy sunday time again! This time: Glazed Poppy Seed Lemon Cake! yum, yum!!!!!
- 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened, plus more for pan
- 3/4 cup, plus 3 tablespoons sugar, plus more for dusting
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, plus finely grated zest of 2 lemons, plus more for garnish (optional)
- 1/4 cup milk
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup poppy seeds
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan. Dust with sugar, and tap out excess; set aside. Whisk together flour, salt, and baking soda. Stir together 1 tablespoon lemon juice and the milk.Put butter and 3/4 cup sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix until pale and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Mix in eggs, zest and poppy seed. Working in two batches, alternate mixing in flour mixture and milk mixture. Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake until a cake tester comes out clean, about 35 minutes.
Meanwhile, stir together remaining 3 tablespoons sugar and 2 tablespoons lemon juice. Upon removing cake from oven, immediately brush with lemon glaze. Let cake cool in pan 10 minutes. Unmold cake. Brush remaining glaze on top. Garnish with zest.
Yay! Today is Yummy Sunday, so I have baked a very special Pear Crumble also known as Pero Tapo.
The story of the Tapo(s) started some time ago when I worked in a center for children with special needs in Brighton. One day one of the kids asked me to bake an Apo Tapo for him. After a lot of scratching my head trying to think what he was asking for, I realised he wanted Apple Crumble. We then both baked Apple Crumble. In fact, he taught me how to do most of it, since at the time I was quite new to the world of Crumble. Anyway, since then any Crumble I have baked has been lovingly named Tapo – so Pear Crumble is known as Pero Tapo in my household.
Here's my recipe for Pero Tapo:
4 Pears
3 1/2 tablespoons of brown sugar
1 cup of oat flakes
1 cup of plain flour
1/2 cup of sugar
3 tablespoons of butter
Peal the pears and cut them in to small pieces. Put in an oven-proof tray, add the pear pieces and the brown sugar together. Bake in the oven for 10 minutes at 180 ℃. Meanwhile add and mix together the oats, sugar and plain flour in a bowl. Add the butter to the flour mixture and mix together with your fingers until you have a flaky/sandy consistency.
Add the butter mixture on the top of the baked pears and bake it all together for another 30 minutes.

The Chubu Walkathon and International Charity Festival is a charitable event started in 1991 in Nagoya, Japan by mostly foreign members of the now-defunct American Business Community Nagoya (ABCN). The festival continues to be held annually on a Sunday in May and is hosted by the American Chamber of Commerce in Japan (ACCJ) and Nagoya International School (NIS).
The Walkathon's main purpose is to join the international community with Japanese friends and companies to
The Chubu Walkathon has long been popular with the region's foreign communities for the range of bands, "foods from home," volunteer opportunities, and fun, but every year it becomes more and more popular with Japanese people as well. Bringing the Japanese community in is a high priority for the event, and has helped grow attendance from a few hundred participants in 1991 to its current size.
The money raised by walkathon is distributed and used by local NPOs and charitable organizations, who apply for the funds every year. In 2011, for example, a local orphanage, applied for funds to rebuild a staircase, another facility asked for a new TV and video game console for children living there. These are excellent representations of where Walkathon money goes.
The amounts given from Walkathon funds are usually small; 200,000 yen or less, and go for specific projects. Charitable organizations that have a need can make a project plan and budget, and then submit the proposal to the organizing committee of the Walkathon, where the funds are sorted. You can find information on charities and groups we have supported in previous years on the Walkathon website.
The Walkathon and International Charity Festivals were held at Meijo Park near Nagoya Castle from 1991 until 2009 when we were invited to participate in the 100th anniversary of Tsuruma Park by the city of Nagoya. After two years at Tsuruma Park, it changed again to its present location at Moricoro Park in Nagakute. While the distance is much greater than at either Meijo Koen or Tsuruma Koen, the venue more than makes up for the distance.
The event, held in late May (traditionally the 3rd Sunday in May), has been rained out more than a few times over 20 years, but Moricoro Park offers our event a large covered common area, and even a few large rooms to use. The kid's area is almost entirely indoors, and that makes a big difference when it rains! While the event has ALWAYS been held "rain or shine," having a place to get out of the rain if it comes makes the day so much more pleasant for everyone.

HS2 bosses have agreed to look at creating designs for an underground tunnel following a desperate plea from residents to mitigate the impact of the controversial scheme.
Andrew Skidmore, area manager for HS2 Ltd West Midlands, has stressed the ultimate decision lies with the Transport Secretary but told members of Solihull Council's HS2 working party the firm has agreed to look at making the tunnel part of their design plans.
Members of the working party met last Wednesday at Kingshurst Evangelical Church, with Mr Skidmore and MP Caroline Spelman, to discuss some of the issues surrounding the multi-billion pound rail link.
The suggestion of the deep bore tunnel - which would run from the grounds of Warwick University, emerging to the north of the borough - was initially raised by protesters at a public meeting held two weeks ago at Heart of England School, Balsall Common.
The possibility of another tunnel or realignment to the north of the borough was also discussed.
At Wednesday's meeting, Mr Skidmore said: "It is not within my gift to promise anyone a tunnel - the decision is made by the Secretary of State.
"We will look at the design of a tunnel.
"We understand where the issue is. This is not going to be a short tunnel and it will carry a significant cost. It is also important to say that tunnels will not make railways disappear.
"It reduces the impact on the landscape but there are other impacts to consider."
Chairman of the working committee, Councillor Ian Courts (Con, Dorridge and Hockley Heath) added: "The tunnel would make a massive difference, it is one of the most important things. The effect on the valley, for example, is going to be devastating."

Giants, A's watching the parade pass by
It was a difficult Friday for the Giants and A's, but one that brought clarity through a maze of uncertainty. Now that the Giants got direct word from Giancarlo Stanton that he won't accept a trade to San Francisco, both local teams can focus on a concrete plan for the winter meetings.
It wasn't surprising that Shohei Ohtani signed with the Angels. He gets great weather, the type of low-key setting he wanted (the Dodgers will be getting most of the attention in Southern California), a franchise willing to be patient in experimenting with a two-way player, and an intriguing roster including Mike Trout, Andrelton Simmons, Albert Pujols and Justin Upton.
It's definitely bad news for the A's, who were hoping Ohtani wouldn't sign within their division. The Seattle Mariners have improved, as well, landing Dee Gordon from Miami, and on top of some really depressing news — the apparent collapse of ballpark negotiations with the Laney College site — the A's aren't in the most joyous of moods right now.
According to the Athletic's Ken Rosenthal, Stanton has narrowed his list of attractive options to the Yankees and Dodgers. The Giants can't compete with those teams in terms of prospects, guaranteed contention, warm summer weather or homer-friendly ballparks. Their calling card was a reported willingness to take on the $295 million in salary commitments to Stanton, and in truth, they aren't thrilled about such a risky venture — not to mention losing some of their top minor-league talent in the process.
If there's a positive side to Stanton's decision, it's that the Giants won't fall behind in their Plan B options. Free to move on, they can do so immediately, right at the onset of the winter meetings, with such names as Andrew McCutchen, J.D. Martinez, Jay Bruce, Todd Frazier, Mike Moustakas, Lorenzo Cain and Billy Hamilton in play.
The Dodgers still make the most sense for Stanton. That's his No. 1 choice, having worshiped the team during his youth in the San Fernando Valley. There are reports suggesting the Dodgers will be too limited by financial restrictions to make the deal, and if that's the case, they'll have to hope that Stanton can't swing a trade with anyone, returns to Miami and becomes available next year. The way it looks from here: If the Dodgers are serious about Stanton and have the financial means, they should take a tip from the Warriors: Do whatever it takes to reach the top. For all of their bluster and glamour, the Dodgers haven't won a World Series since 1988. If they pull the trigger on Stanton, putting him in the same dugout with Corey Seager, Cody Bellinger, Justin Turner, Clayton Kershaw and the rest, imagine the gap between L.A. and San Francisco — not to mention just about every other team in the National League.
Tradition gone missing
The Bay Area has apparently lost all connections to big-time tennis. San Jose had to relinquish the men's event in 2013, and now Stanford has pulled out of the Bank of the West tournament, one of the best and most historic on the women's tour. The event's demise had been rumored for months, after Stanford officials demanded a significant increase for renting the facility this year, and it was confirmed Friday by Dick Gould, Stanford's director of tennis. According to the International Management Group, which has operated the tournament for years, "IMG has been notified by the University that its policy of hosting corporate-sponsored events has changed. IMG's highest priority is to keep the event in the Bay Area, and we are working on a plan to do so." One can only hope that's the case. The San Jose event seldom had elite fields, with the likes of Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic reluctant to leave home at that stage of the season. But the Bay Area women's tournament dates to 1971, at various locations, with a list of winners including Billie Jean King, Chris Evert, Martina Navratilova, Monica Seles, Lindsay Davenport, Kim Clijsters and the Williams sisters. It would be a real shame to see it moved elsewhere ... A good way to ruin the college football bowl system: Christian McCaffrey-style bailouts. McCaffrey opted out of Stanford's Sun Bowl appearance last year, worried about an injury that could affect his NFL draft status, and now there are rumors circulating around Sam Darnold (USC vs. Ohio State, Cotton Bowl), Josh Rosen (UCLA vs. Kansas State, Cactus), Saquon Barkley (Penn State vs. Washington, Fiesta) and Bryce Love (Stanford vs. TCU, Alamo). Injury concerns are legitimate, particularly in Love's case, but "Hey, I might get hurt" doesn't draw much sympathy from fans excited about the matchups ... One expected no less from the classy Justin Wilcox, taking himself out of the running for the Oregon job — vacated by Willie Taggart's departure — to remain at Cal. That may well be Wilcox's dream job; he played at Oregon, along with his father and brother, and one of the Ducks' practice fields is named after the family. He's also close to Justin Herbert, the electrifying Oregon quarterback heading into his junior year. But Wilcox just arrived at Cal. He feels a commitment there, and everyone seems delighted with his work ... And finally, a word to everyone fond of prefacing grand proclamations with "I'm not going to lie": Hey, we like it better the normal way, when your every word is a complete falsehood.

Six Month Checkup
Oliver had his 6-month check up and vaccines today. He weighs 18lbs, 2oz, and is 27 1/4 inches tall. His legs are getting soooo chunky, they are adorable!
New Puppy
Meet our new dog, Sheena Is A Punk Rocker. Yes, like the Ramones song. 'Sheena' for short, of course. (NOT She-Ra, the Princess of Power.)
She is a Rottweiler-Boxer mix, although it's hard to see the Rott in her. She is 10 months old. She has lived on a farm all her life, so we are working hard to housetrain her. She has only had a couple accidents in the house since Saturday, so that's not bad! She's a real sweetie. She is for some reason incredibly attached to me, and if I'm home but in the other room she whines and cries until I return. She will also throw a fit if she's in the backyard by herself. We're hoping that with time she'll be more comfortable here and will be okay on her own for awhile!
She likes Oliver and loves giving him kisses - which he is started to get annoyed by already. We're sure they will grow up to be best friends!

Sleeping Baby
There are few things cuter than a baby sleeping - especially when he's sleeping with his bum up in the air!!

Six Months!
Today is a big day for not only Oliver, but me too! During my pregnancy I set a couple goals for myself - to breastfeed for at least six months, and to lose all my pregnancy weight plus four pounds by six months. And I gained a LOT during my pregnancy!
After a rough first two months, we finally got breastfeeding figured out and it's still going great!
And, this morning I stepped on the scale and I'm right at my goal weight!! Yay!
Oliver is crawling up a storm, he is getting so quick! He is already pulling himself up, usually onto our legs but sometimes on the couch or his musical table (a fun toy from Aunt Anna). He hasn't started to really cruise yet but I'm sure that is coming. I'm guessing that he'll be walking by 10 months.

Oliver looooves his new motorcycle. I'm so amazed at how well he just sits on it and rides! Sorry, I haven't figured out how to turn it the right way yet. I'll keep working on that.
Friday, February 13, 2009
It's Official!
Hide the powercords - Oli is crawling! And of course he's already going for all the things he's not supposed to play with. Powercords, remotes, books, magazines, my paperwork....you know, all the fun stuff!
He has also managed to pull himself up to standing a few times, using my or Ian's leg. He's growing so fast!! Granna says he'll be walking before he's one, I think I agree with her.

Still working on it...
Oliver has two more weeks to prove me right - I think he'll be crawling by six months. He's definitely getting better, but he's still technically 'scooting'. And fast. I can't turn my back on him for a second now. He has figured out that power cords, or anything plugged in, are way more fun than all his toys. He goes straight for his baby monitor in his room, and for the tv cords in the living room. And for some reason he's fascinated with the legs on his jumperoo. We're going to be in trouble when he really starts crawling!

THE THRIFT SAVINGS PLAN ALLOCATION GUIDE › Forums › Message Board › National Debt and Unfunded Liabilities
Tagged: debt, unfunded liabilities

Appreciate you sharing your rationale that supports your allocation.
Concerning the national debt and unfunded liabilities, is there a point in time when the obligations will require action that will impact the market?April 3, 2016 at 4:20 pm #18479TS PaulParticipant
Lots of different issues raised in that very short question (most of them very politicized these days), but I will take a swing at the ones which spring immediately to mind:
– the very short answer, is that I don't believe it will in this generation. And projections which go out for decades beyond that can't take into account all of the dramatic, unforeseen changes which almost certainly impact the economy during that time.
– fiscal policy (government spending) will definitely impact the stock market over and over again for as long as we are a democracy. Typically what we will see is the legislative branch doing exactly the wrong thing at critical points in the business cycle, causing greater volatility than is necessary (cutting spending when the economy contracts which causes the economy to contract even more, and spending like a drunken sailor when the economy is expanding which causes the economy to overheat).
– the huge scary numbers for unfunded liabilities which get thrown around are based on projections which go out for decades. Even if they are completely accurate (which is questionable because they assume that costs will continue to grow at a continuous rate over decades and no major policy changes will be enacted or technical advances achieved which will impact those), those big numbers from the distant future are typically applied to today's economy (which is a fraction of what it will be at that point in the future) and today's population (which is presumably much smaller than that of the US in 75 or however many years in the future).
– the big money items when we talk about unfunded liabilities revolve around health care/health insurance. I can't imagine that health care in the US will look like the current model in 20 years, much less further into the future. I suspect there will be major changes within our lifetime – whether we decouple health insurance from employment, go to a single payer plus system, find ways to limit the incentive to maximize profits from health providers, or some combination of those and other changes.
– as we look decades out into the future, the US's extraordinarily large defense/national security budget means that the US has a very large amount of discretionary spending which can be diverted to other uses. Because these programs are so large, even a very small reallocation would completely change the math.
None of which is to say that the US (and many other governments) aren't doing a lot of dumb things. But I tend to believe that the continuous growth of the US economy and meaningful changes to government programs will allow us to absorb what look like insurmountable fiscal problems without a complete meltdown in the future.

At 5-inches tall, Droid X is currently the biggest smartphone on the market, and sports a screen equal to the EVO 4G's at 4.3-inches with a 854×480 resolution. It is a know fact that the iPhone 4 is actually on top when it comes to pixel density, however Droid X has such a large screen that it compensates a lot for a few missing pixels.
Motorola also went bigger by including an 8-megapixel camera with dual LED flash that can take sensibly sharp photos and also records video in 720p. Motorola included DLNA in addition to HDMI support for the purpose of streaming media to your high-def TV or other device.
Droid X has a very powerful processor: the 1GHz TI OMAP. With a processor like this one, you can switch between applications easily and browse through the phone lightning fast. The next big thing is the amount of memory inside the phone. The Droid X comes with 24GB of internal storage: 8GB on board and a 16GB removable micro SD card.
Unlike the original Droid, Motorola opted against adding a physical keyboard to the Droid X. This was a sensible choice because although the mobile phone is large, it's relatively slim when compared with its general size. An actual keyboard would've likely made a device already tough to stuff into a pocket even more difficult. Still, with the bigger screen, the on-screen keyboard is not hard to type with and Motorola thoughtfully integrated a Swype keyboard for those who aren't pleased with the Droid keyboard supplied.
One of the main selling points of the Motorola Droid X is that you can use it as a mobile 3G hotspot for tethering laptops, netbooks and other wireless devices to your 3G connection. Connecting these devices is quick and, depending on your connection, nets decent enough speeds.
While there are plenty of products that offer style over substance, the Droid X delivers plenty of both in a form factor that is sure to elicit plenty of 'oohs' and 'ahhs' when you bring it out.

Due to restrictions in California's constitution, MSWD is not able to offer discounted water rates or bill credits/forgiveness to low-income or senior customers.
Mission Springs Water District worked with United Way of the Desert (UWD) to establish a fund specifically to help low-income customers pay their water bills, Help2Others or H2O.
Mission Springs Water District employees make thousands of dollars in contributions to this fund (also supported by MSWD vendors), and to UWD to help fill other needs in our community. UWD may also be able to refer you to a variety of community organizations or programs to help with your other expenses.

Just the other day I was waiting at a busy signal in Bangalore, which in rush hours is a real nightmare and gives you ample time to reflect upon different facets of life. This is when I noticed a rusty, old yet well maintained Bajaj Chetak waiting next to me and right next to me was this pure black Pulsar 150. The ages of the riders determined the path which Bajaj Auto had taken in its 60 odd years of journey. One was an icon which lay the foundation for the most profitable company in the world (in 2012) and the other gave Bajaj the much needed push in redefining performance motorcycling to the 1 billion population of this country. But like any company, Bajaj also survives on numbers and with a 3.2% YoY degrowth, am sure all in not well in the Akurdi HQ of World's 3rd largest 2 wheeler manufacturer.
Now BAL has breathed life into the Pulsar with the 200SS and the AS range. But I believe its time to pull up the socks and get a Pulsar V2 which will again redefine the Indian 2 wheeler market. Else one fine day Pulsar will be like the rubber band stretched too far, either it will break and give away or it will stretch beyond a point of no return. Also, can Bajaj consider re-entering the scooter segment and launch a breakthrough offering in the segment ?(similarly to what Pulsar did in performance bikes). So what's your game Bajaj?

Otherwise, the main factor that individuals nowadays notice may be the face, and also the image is the only goal. So in present world, making the very best of how you look and searching neat is becoming very significant for males. These beauty guidelines are suitable for all individuals men that need to look their finest, and attract people easier.
Men, much like women, get concerned once they observe grey hair. Because of this, you will find beauty guidelines for males who're going grey. If you are planning grey, then cover them up once you discover their whereabouts. Either snip them off or color them. Don't watch for it in becoming more noticeable one.

Artificial Intelligence has been adopted across every industry in recent years. From health care to aviation, the power of the machines is being unleashed to perform time-critical tasks, make informed decisions and make our lives better every day.
The Retail Industry is no exception. Today, when you add a pair of jeans to your cart on your favorite online retailer, you are immediately shown a wide variety of shoes, tops and other items as a recommendation, which will complement your fashion sense. These recommended products are carefully handpicked by the system, which has analyzed your previous purchases and other users' shopping trends. All of this is possible with the help of machine learning which trains the system with tons of data and teaches it to infer patterns lying underneath the chaos and hence enhances the system's deductive skills.
Machine learning sounds more like it tries to mimic the left side of the human brain, which is responsible for logic, reasoning and analytics. Can we somehow use machine learning to mimic the right side of the brain, which is responsible for intuition, imagination and most importantly, creativity?
The answer lies in one of the classes of machine learning known as GAN (Generative adversarial network). A GAN can generate photographs with such realistic features and accuracy that you may get confused whether it's the work of a machine or a real person. To start with, a computer is trained with a known set of images, such as a bunch of paintings. The GAN then aids the computer in recognizing the building blocks of those paintings, and then picks up those blocks at random and sews them together to generate a completely new piece of artwork! We may not have a digital Da Vinci yet, the applications of GAN are becoming widespread, and is especially taking the retail industry by storm.
The key to an engaging shopping experience is to help the customer visualize themselves in the apparel they wish to purchase. GANs take this experience to a whole new level. If people have trouble in deciding whether or not to buy a shirt, they can simply upload a picture of themselves, and the computer will generate a realistic image of theirs wearing the shirt. The computer can also go ahead in creating images of a person wearing the shirt, standing in different poses, irrespective of the pose of the person in the image provided as input. So, imagine a new recommendation system which doesn't show only the apparel, but is also creative and intuitive enough to generate the perfect image of yours, in that apparel.
GANs can also take head-on with Augmented reality (AR) systems in the future and emerge victorious! Cause GANs don't have limitations of AR systems in terms of lighting conditions and device form factors.
GANs may also land up in being used in Retail therapy, which is shopping with the motive of improving the buyer's mood. Some people often resort to retail therapy in their times of depression, relying on the notion that a new pair of clothes will change their outlook towards lives. This notion doesn't come cheap, and sometimes people spend more than they originally intended to. Since the primary purpose of retail therapy is to give a morale boost to a person, the images generated by GANs will not only make a person a conscious buyer but also make their lives better by re-instilling confidence in themselves.

Management Science – Analytics for Business Improvement
Business Analysis and Leveraging the Emerging Analytic Techniques
By: Frank Kowalkowski
Predictive analytics is a hot buzz word today. However, predictive analytics is just one of several categories of business analytics that can be applied to the variety of business problems that confront management today. New categories of analytic techniques are now available that yield greater insight for achieving a specific solution.
Companies understand the value of applying different analytic techniques to their caches of data they have been gathering and cleaning for the past 10 to 15 years. Now, more complex problem solving situations are prompting analysts to delve deeper into the data they have, regardless of its form - text, quantities, images, sound clips or any other source of information about the enterprise and its external environment. Effective analysis of both internal and external data provides valuable insight into the behavior of customers, employees, suppliers and others

LDV Vans Trophy (North) R1
Mansfield Town 0 Crewe Alexandra 4
Hulse 4, 14, 59, Jack 62.
Attendance: 1,874 (125 from Crewe)
Gary Tyldsley at Field Mill
With the expected low turnout for this LDV opener, there was a shortage of real "match-day" atmosphere in the build-up to kick-off tonight. The Stags had a fairly youthful look with another start for Mark Hurst and the inclusion of Danny Holyoak in place of Mark Lever, plus Youth Team skipper and Jack Retter Trophy winner Jake Buxton on the bench with the promising Alex Baptiste. There was also a welcome return for injured keeper Kevin Pilkington, back after several games out with a fractured wrist.
We have already experienced one display of slick, incisive football from tonight's visitors this season and it was more of the same from the kick-off as they crafted a clear-cut opportunity within the first minute. Fortunately for the sleepy and static Stags defence the chance was wasted. Neil MacKenzie then attempted to prove that not everyone in a yellow shirt would be slow to start as he went on a mazy run through the middle before poking a harmless shot towards the Alex goal.
It did not take too long for our fears to be realised and leave us contemplating a repeat of the recent league encounter at Field Mill. Only 4 minutes had elapsed when Lee Williamson failed to control a ball in the middle of the park, surrendering possession to a quick thinking red shirt who delivered the perfect ball through a still cold Stags back-line for Rob Hulse to take past Kevin Pilkington and put the visitors in front.
Rodney Jack had been a chief tormentor in the previously mentioned league game and before the first 10 minutes had gone by he gave us a reminder of his performance that day. He has pace to spare along with the ability to make the ball stick to his feet while defenders tackle the thin-air that he has just left behind.
Whilst Crewe were carving out the best chances from open play, it was the Stags "set-piece nightmare" that struck on the quarter-hour mark. A free-kick play straight from the training ground involved a long cross to Nigerian World Cup player Efe Sodje and culminated in a second goal of the evening for Rob Hulse.
Kevin Pilkington did show his class on 21 minutes with a super save after another flowing move from Crewe involving Rodney Jack.
Stags had a better spell around the half-hour point and finally put the visitors under pressure in their own box. As usual, when things are not going well, that little bit of good fortune needed to change the course of the game does not come. After the Crewe keeper spilled a cross the ball ricocheted around the box before falling to Liam Lawrence, who hit the shot well only to see it cannon off a Crewe defender and go for a corner. Only 5 minutes later, Lawrence was involved again by putting in a great corner for Neil Moore to head just past the far post. The final point of any note in the first half was another shot from Wayne Corden which failed to trouble the Alex keeper.
Half-Time: Stags 0 Crewe 2
With Colin Larkin having little joy in the first period and then also appearing to be limping slightly, it was no surprise to see him substituted at the break. Andy White took his place and the impact was almost immediate. With Stags looking very lively during the early stages of the second period, Andy showed his potential twice inside 5 minutes. First, stretching out one of those rubber legs to reach a ball that everyone else thought was out, he just failed to get it back inside the post and then followed this up with a shot from the edge of the box which was too hot for the Alex keeper to handle - unfortunately for the Stags, nobody was following in to take advantage.
Two minutes later, the ever busy Iyseden Christie almost embarrassed the Crewe keeper with a shot from 30 yards that he managed to fumble away for a corner.
All this promising play was destined to amount to nothing when the impressive Rodney Jack took off down the right wing, got to the bye-line and pulled back a perfect ball for Hulse to hit a sweet first-time shot that gave Pilkington no chance at all, a goal that completed an impressive hat-trick.
And we had only 3 more minutes to wait before Jack capped a superb display with a goal of his own. It had the good fortune that Stags had been craving for so long but with the old adage of "you make your own luck" then it is right to assume a good side will get the run of the ball a little more than others. The ball ricocheted about the box so quickly with players on both sides getting touches it was difficult to see if Rodney Jack had actually got the final touch - however, few would have begrudged him the credit of being on the scoresheet.
The game virtually petered out from this point with Crewe content to play some impressive possession football and Stags continue to try and build on some good spells in the hope of regaining some confidence. Danny Bacon was given a chance to shine in place of Iyseden Christie and Lee Williamson was withdrawn to allow a first appearance for Jake Buxton.
There were still some positives to take from tonight. Despite the lack of a goal there was some better passing and build-up play from the Stags - what we needed tonight is a player in the mould of Rob Hulse, one who must be an excellent bet to be the division 2 top scorer come next May. My view is that Crewe are the best side we have faced and are maybe the best side that we will face all season, the gulf tonight was in the opponents penalty area - they delivered the final ball better and fed a goal-machine. A common observation from the stands, one that I could not disagree with, is that we need more movement off the ball - both in open play and at set pieces.. lets hope that starts at Swindon this weekend.
Man of the Match: Liam Lawrence
Pilkington: 6 - Great to see him back, shame it was against Rob Hulse!
JClarke: 6 - Distribution is still an inconsistent part of Jamie's game.
Holyoak: 7 - Despite the goals conceded tonight, Danny showed immense promise.
Moore: 6 - Typical battling display but absent for the opening goal.
Hurst: 5 - Did not play badly but had to chase Rodney Jack all night!
MacKenzie: 6 - Drifted inside a lot and showed his quality with some great passing.
Lawrence: 7 - Ran everywhere, involved in our best moves.
Williamson: 6 - Better all-round display from Leeroy.
Corden: 6 - Mixture of good and bad from Wayne tonight.
Larkin: 5 - Worked hard but no cutting edge
Christie: 7 - Ran his socks off and caused problems for the Crewe defenders.
AWhite (for Larkin, 46): 7 - Looked a real handful when he came on.
Bacon (for Christie, 68): 6 - Played wider than usual but did not threaten enough.
Buxton (for Williamson, 83): 6 - Confident show for the short time that he was on.
Subs not used: JWhite, Baptiste.
Referee: C.Boyeson, Hull.
