"The market has proved itself the supreme engine of innovation, production, and distribution. But as it careens ahead, its method — heedless of little beyond profits — is what Joseph Schumpeter called 'creative destruction.' In its economic theory, capitalism employs the model of equilibrium; in practice its very nature drives it toward disequilibrium. The unfettered market that conservatives worship systematically undermines the values conservatives hold dear: stability, morality, community, work, discipline, delayed gratification. The greed and glitter of the marketplace, the exploitation of prurient appetites, the anything goes psychology, the short-termism, the ease of fraud, the devil-take-the-hindmost ethos, all of these are at war with the professed conservative ideals."
The quote is from an article titled "A Question of Power" by Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr. appearing in an edition of The American Prospect, an article so compatible with my liberal soul that I would like to quote the whole of it for what I perceive to be the needed and necessary education of anyone who is still susceptible to learning history, economics and political science. And about the shortcomings and excesses of capitalism.
The quote comprehensively and succinctly corroborates my assessment of unfettered capitalism, to wit: That it has produced great material wealth but at a cost that is prohibitive and that is cancerous and ultimately deadly to the nation's political and moral well-being. And that capitalism is capitalism's worst enemy and has within it the seeds of its destruction. Karl Marx was right.
More from Professor Schlesinger: "But the real inciters [to class warfare] are CEOs who pay themselves more in a day than their workers make in a year. Laissez-faire zealots and market fundamentalists somehow don't get it. They still don't understand that it is precisely the intervention of the national government that has rescued capitalism from the dreaded Marxist fate. Market fundamentalism — that is, the doctrine that the unbridled market place contains the remedy for all our troubles — would have, as Marx predicted, made the rich richer and the poor poorer and thereby intensified class war. What saved capitalism from being destroyed by its own contradictions was something Marx had not foreseen: the democratic interventionist state."
I was alive and remember well the result of unbridled capitalism and have since read of its insensate, unconscionable, deplorable exploitation of men, women and children and, of course, of its pillage and plunder of the environment and every other form of life. I remember the crash of 1929 and its residue and how near to the precipice of class warfare the nation was until FDR used government to rescue it and in the process rescue also the very rich whose greed had spawned the economic debacle. And now since democratic intervention has regulated capitalism, capitalism has gone overseas where it can exploit the peasantry of the world and expropriate the value of their labor and pillage their environment to its profit.
Again Schlesinger: "The affluent argue that affirmative government has malign moral consequences. Public solicitude, it is said, corrupts the poor by depriving them of that economic insecurity the well-off hold to be the essential stimulus to achievement. … 'In order to succeed,' the right-wing publicist George Gilder writes, 'the poor need most of all the spur of their poverty.'
"The affluent apply this argument rather more to the poor than to themselves. If the rich really believed in the salubrious effects of economic insecurity, they would favor a 100 percent inheritance tax so that their own children would not be deprived of this great moral benefit. Instead —- well, we all know how the rich feel about the estate tax. "
If the rich are not preaching of the how welfare corrupts the morals of the poor, they are preaching of how big government threatens the freedoms of the people and particularly of capitalists. "But the record surely shows that the intervention of national authority— far from rushing the Republic down the road to serfdom— has given a majority of Americans more personal dignity and liberty than they ever had before. The individual freedoms destroyed have been in the main the freedom to deny black Americans their elementary rights as American citizens, the freedom to work little children in mills and immigrants in sweatshops, the freedom to pay starvation wages and enforce dawn-to-dusk working hours and permit squalid working conditions, the freedom to deceive in the sale of goods and securities and drugs, the freedom to loot national resources and pollute the environment, and so on. "
The threat to freedom is not from a government which intervenes on behalf of the poor and the hindmost, it is from the rich that own and control corporate power and wealth. Henry Adams, a brilliant American historian, more than a century ago detected the threat in the Erie Railroad's unrestrained use of its power and the government's weakness in the face of it and presciently observed: " The belief is common in America that the day is at hand when corporations far greater than Erie … will ultimately succeed in directing government itself. Under the American form of society no authority exists capable of effective resistance. The national government in order to deal with the corporation, must assume powers refused to it by its fundamental law — and even then is exposed to the chance of forming an absolute government which sooner or later is likely to fall into the hands it is struggling to escape."
The mother of ironies is that the conservatives and the religious fundamentalists are aghast at what this professed Christian republic has come to: a nation of materialists, egoists, libidinal freaks and incipient sociopaths; and they cannot believe that what has happened is the result of their worship of the Golden Calf, namely, capitalism, so they lay the blame on liberals, without whose opposition and humane input their economical god would be as dead as their theological god.
Further, was there ever so palpable a contradiction, so manifest an ignorance, so gross a hypocrisy as fundamentalist Christians espousing the cause of right-wing conservatives? How can anyone with a modest gift of discernment and sense of social justice read the Sermon on the Mount and not conclude that unbridled capitalism and the politics of its adherents are totally incompatible with the word and spirit of Jesus Christ?
Conservatives think that their hero Reagan defeated the Evil Empire but they are going to learn that it never happened. That Marx was right: That capitalism expropriates the value of the working man's labor unto itself, that it thereby makes the rich richer and poor poorer, and that the consequence is a nation divided against itself, a division that can only lead to civil strife and eventually to a military coup d' etat and a fascist state, a course followed by nearly every important power in history except those that were saved by a democratic interventionist state.
Capitalism with its amorality and its naked material goal has corrupted this nation just as it will any nation; and its professed Christian proponents see the corruption but owing to either obtuseness or self-deception lay the cause at the feet of liberals. Under Reagan the interventionist state grew weaker; under Clinton, the move to the middle weakened it further. Now under Bush, there is haste to dismantle all that can be dismantled of it. So the rich get richer and the poor poorer and the national power, being systematically eroded by the Supreme Court, grows weaker. The military, the trump card of the wealthy when class warfare breaks out, is ever more rightwing in its politics and is the power corporate interests look to for protection from the people and the government, if it comes to a showdown with them or it or both.
When Creative Destruction comes, the religious fundamentalists and capitalist conservatives will lay the blame on liberals and socialists and will continue to declare that Christ and supply-side economics are the answer, even though they haven't ever seriously regarded or followed Christ, except, perhaps, as a ticket to heaven, nor ever conceded that Marx figured them out long ago.

Le Pain Quotidien has appointed a managing director for its UK business for the first time.
Peter Jenkins, who previously served as operations director at the chain, took the MD's post earlier this month.
He joined the company a year ago having formerly worked in operations roles both for Pret A Manger and Selfridges.
Le Pain Quotidien currently has 24 outlets in the UK and more than 200 globally. All its stores in the UK are company-owned and, together with its self-owned US and Paris stores , make up around half of its overall estate.
The business was founded in 1990 by Alain Coumont, then a young chef who could not find the right bread to serve in his Brussels restaurant.
He decided to make it himself and opened a small bakery where he could knead flour, salt and water into what have become his signature rustic loaves. Le Pain Quotidien is a privately held company with its headquarters in New York.

Litigation Funding For Medical Malpractice Lawsuits and Appeals
Medical malpractice cases are hard fought, difficult cases that can take years to resolve. If victims require litigation funding, it is important to know that Lawsuit Financial Corporation is one of the few legal funding companies that provide capped lawsuit financing. Victims who utilize lawsuit financing services need to consider this important factor when seeking funding on a piece of litigation that could take several years to settle.
Brookwood Medical Center may consider appealing a recent $7.5 million verdict in which an Alabama couple sued the hospital for negligence. The lawsuit alleges that Wilfred (aka Butch) was recuperating from back surgery when he began suffering serious pain. After being admitted to the hospital, doctors made the decision to monitor his condition. According to the claim, nurses failed to relay several changes in the man's condition. By the next morning, Butch underwent emergency surgery to relieve pressure from a large hematoma on a bundle of nerves just below the spinal cord. The lawsuit alleged that the delay in surgery left Butch permanently impotent and incontinent.
This couple has been seeking for justice for over four years, and now the fight may continue. Consider the pain and suffering and the mental and emotional anguish; maybe even financial hardship. How much more should they endure? How much longer will this couple suffer without compensation, without justice?
I don't know this family's financial situation, but I would guess that the medical expenses alone left them financially strapped. During this long ordeal, they may have qualified for litigation funding, a non-recourse cash advance against their pending claim. If the defendant files for an appeal, litigation funding can still be an option to alleviate some financial burdens.
When a plaintiff is dealing will the loss of income and mounting unpaid bills, litigation funding can be the emergency cash needed to get through the litigation process, including an appeal. Once case documentation is reviewed and the strength of the case determined, approvals can be available within 24 – 48 hours. No money is owed until the case successfully settles, at which time repayment is made from the proceeds of the case. The most attractive part about lawsuit funding is that if the case is lost, repayment is completely waived.
If you have filed, or plan to file, a medical malpractice lawsuit and are represented by an attorney, you may be eligible for medical malpractice litigation funding. For a free consultation or to apply, complete the online contact form or contact Lawsuit Financial directly at 1- 877-377-7848. Don't wait until it is too late; we may have the solution you need to stay financially afloat in hard times.

For Sale By Owner (FSBO) properties are common all around Hawaii and the mainland. It has become common practice recently for people to sell and buy their houses directly. It can reduce costs, and thanks to the Internet, it's easier to do now than ever. However, buying and selling on your own is not always cost-effective, and is much more difficult than many people realize. Hiring a Hawaii real estate agent will save you lots of time, and probably lots of money too.
Benefits of using a Hawaii Real Estate Agent
There's a reason why even experienced real estate agents on the mainland choose to hire Hawaii real estate agents when buying or selling personal property on the island. Simply put, there is just no substitute for a local agent's connections and expertise. Some of the most valuable benefits that a licensed realtor can offer a home buyer or seller include:
Better Real Estate Connections
Hawaii real estate agents like Lailan Bento Realtor, S,are dedicated professionals who have taken the time to connect with as many people in the real estate market as possible. Their years of fostering valuable relationships, and experience in finding and selling property, allow them to find homes for sale far more quickly and easily than potential home buyers would looking on their own. By hiring a Hawaii realtor, you streamline the buying process and save yourself hours of your time by leaving the property search up to a professional.
More Effective Negotiations
People think doing the transaction directly between the seller and the buyer is easier. Negotiations, however, are stressful and complicated, and it can be easy to be taken advantage of. All to often, a buyer or seller winds up at the bad end of the deal, paying more (or receiving less) than they would have if they had just paid realtor's commission.
Faster Transactions
Contracts are tiring and time consuming, even for the simplest of transactions. If you are buying a house, your realtor will make sure the contract provides all of the legal protections that you require — potentially saving you thousands of dollars or more should something go awry. As a good Realtor,
Using a Hawaii real estate agent like Lailan Bento, Realtor S will help you in many more ways than you think, and will save you both time and money in the long run. For a consultation, and to see if hiring a local realtor is right for you, feel free to contact Lailan through her contact page, or by phone: (808) 936-1800

The Supreme Court should strike down a governmental policy allowing college radio stations to be fined for "fleeting expletives," the Student Press Law Center and College Broadcasters, Inc., argue in a new friend-of-the-court brief.
SPLC and CBI joined forces for the brief in defense of college radio's role as an often-live "laboratory for experimentation," where, gasp, sometimes stray curse words are spoken.
The organizations' problem: For the past decade, the Federal Communication Commission has operated as a "wide-ranging, randomly enforced indecency regime" waging a "crackdown on swear-words in over-the-air broadcasting." The resulting fines can reach a half million dollars, threatening student stations' very existence simply due to a single broadcast's "blurted curse-words."
A portion of the brief: "The Commission's current approach chills college broadcasters into self-censoring their speech so as to leave a broad buffer before reaching the indistinct boundary where indecency may (or may not) lie. This is the hallmark of an unconstitutionally vague regulatory regime."
SPLC executive director Frank LoMonte: "[T]he risk of a five-figure or six-figure fine that could put a station out of business really discourages students from airing the very type of broadcasts that their audiences most want and that offer the most diversity in programming."
The Supreme Court will hear arguments in the related case, FCC v. Fox TV, in January.

There's no shortage of things to love about Bondi. The iconic Sydney suburb that invented Aussie beach culture has inspired many a culinary venture that has aimed to capture this surfy vibe, a feat that Bondi Beach Public Bar (BBPB) has nailed.
The team behind Bondi's newest pub venture is Maurice Terzini, Monty Kouldrovic, James Hird and Lenny Opai, whose hospitality prowess in previous ventures (Bondi Icebergs, The Dolphin Hotel) has put them in good stead to steer BBPS towards success.
"We take pride in BBPB being a bar that represents Sydney and Bondi Beach today whilst maintaining the simple qualities that a Public Bar should have… community values, good food and a simple, cold beer," says Maurice.
With Bondi's culinary culture rapidly becoming more and more modernised and sophisticated, the team is bringing things back to basics with a 1970s and 1980s inspired theme and laid back vibe. So much so that you won't find any traces of post-mix soft drinks on tap, rather old-school freshly squeezed juices and CAPI mixers to be enjoyed on their own or spiked with something a little stronger.
The same goes for the Italo-Australian pub food offering. "BBPS is an ode to traditional public bars, so there are counter meals, it's an everyday venue. It's just easy and cheap," says Maurice.
Think authentic New York style pizza, juicy burgers, hot Mediterranean spiced fried chicken and house-made gelato made by group executive pastry chef Jaclyn Kouldrovic for your go-to favourites. You'll also find a modern spin on cult pub classics, like the Black Angus Minute steak with 'proper' chips and roasted mushroom sauce or grilled market fish with cauliflower, olives, radicchio, dill and lemon. For dessert, opt for a waffle bowl filled with gelato and double chocolate Nutella brownie or perhaps golden honeycomb tiramisu. Need we say more?
When it comes to wine, minimal intervention is key according to wine director James Hird. BBPB is home to an exclusive bottling of Cantina Giardino Terzini Anfora Rosato, which features on a wine list made up of bottles you wouldn't expect to see in the average public bar. However, the list is accessible and wide-reaching, catering to all tastes and budgets.
The fit-out was envisioned by designer George Livissianis. Majorly decked out in greys, whites, blacks and concrete finishes the pub takes on a sleek, modern style that is balanced with a relaxed and unpretentious vibe. The walls are adorned with artwork from resident Melbourner, Matthew Bax, whose 23m-long installation will be revamped quarterly to match new additions to the drinks menu. Match this quirky décor with the sounds of summery rock'n'roll harking from a bygone era and you've found yourself a pretty funky hangout.
Whether it be tourists visiting the iconic Bondi Beach for the first time or Sydney locals trying out the next best culinary find, BBPB is ticking the box. With an all-star cast at the helm, we don't need to tell you twice that this no-fuss, no reservations, laid-back Aussie pub has all the makings of a lively local for years to come.

SAN YSIDRO-- School drama leads to death threats, teachers furious over salaries, benefits and that's not all.
"I'm going to be very honest, I'm tired of all the fighting," said San Ysidro School Board president Rosaleah Pallasigu during Thursday's meeting.
For four years the allegations of financial mismanagement by those at the San Ysidro school district keep coming back and on Thursday it all came to a head when the Board openly talked for the first time, flanked by the entire teacher's union.
"Is this rock bottom? I don't know but the board is getting threats," said board clerk Marcos Diaz.
Members of the school board said they've been receiving death threats over the drama that has seen three superintendents in as many months. The board chose Thursday night to hire a Los Angeles-area educator, Mary Willis, to take over as the interim superintendent after the previous one lasted only two months.
Willis has some 40 years of experience in education, specializing in turning around troubled districts. She will receive $1,000 a day not to exceed $42,000 while the national search for permanent replacement happens. She'll be walking into allegations of scandal in one of San Diego's poorest school districts. One that has narrowly avoided bankruptcy the past few years. The former superintendent, Julio Fonseca resigned in September but received a $376,000 separation package from the district for just 26 months of work.
"I understand we have real issues and we shouldn't diminish those issues. This should be investigated," added Pallasig.
The board is demanding the District Attorney's office investigate financial issues surrounding both previous superintendents and hope together they can all move forward.

Nestled on a corner of Tacoma's Hilltop neighborhood stands Normanna Hall. It is one of the last ethnic fraternal lodges that once dotted the city's immigrant neighborhoods.
There were, at one point, community centers for immigrants from Germany, Sweden, Japan, Italy and Switzerland. Members would gather to speak their native tongues and keep their culture alive for future generations through dance classes and festivals as well as support each other in their new life in their adopted home thousands of miles from their motherlands.
Only two of these lodges remain today. There is the Slavonian American Benevolent Society in Old Town that formed in 1901 and continues to promote the culture and heritage of the former Yugoslavian region of Europe. And there is Normanna Hall, home of Norden Lodge #2 of the Sons of Norway, and it is adding members at a rate that could soon bring it back to its peak since the lodge boasts 350 members on its roster.
"I would really like for us to have another 100 members, because then we would be up at the numbers of our heyday," Lodge President Teresa Hunt said.
Not every member hails from Norway or is male as the Sons of Norway name would imply. People – of any gender – just have to want to learn more about Scandinavian culture through classes, presentations, meals and fellowship. The lodge, for example, has an extensive lending library of donated and purchased books about Scandinavian history, culture, heritage and recipes members can check out. The lodge even offers Nordic knitting classes that drew three dozen people the first night and continue to bring crowds. Its Scandinavian folk dances also draw steady groups. The lodge started Scandinavian cooking classes about a year ago and continues to bring in about two dozen people.
"That is pretty much as many people as we can cram into our kitchen at one time," Hunt said.
Other members join for the travel discounts and membership benefits through the network of 400 Sons of Norway lodges in America, Canada and Norway. Locally, that means cheap access to campsites and the hot-tub equipped the group's ski lodge, called Trollgaugen, on Snoqualmie Pass.
Tacoma's Norden Lodge has changed with the times to meet the needs and desires of its members, but stayed true to its Nordic roots that date back to the birth of Tacoma itself.
The railroad and trading ships brought Scandinavian immigrants to the region by the thousands in the late 1800s, mostly clustering in Seattle's Ballard neighborhood, Tacoma's Hilltop, as well as on Anderson and McNeil islands just off the shores of Steilacoom. This flood of people wanted a way to stay connected to their homelands and cultures. A social group of 92 members then formed in 1907, first meeting for dinners and dances in halls around Tacoma until it could finance a building of its own.
That day came in 1914, when the members pooled their dollars to spend $8,500 for a site at the corner of 15th and K Street, now Martin Luther King Jr. Way. The members then issued $25,000 in stock to build Normanna Hall. The building took shape in 1922 and opened on March 7, 1923, to uphold the principles of "fraternity, charity and harmony." It should be noted that most meetings were conducted in Norwegian in those days. The lodge adopted English as its language of record at the outbreak of World War II.
Tragedy visited the doors of Normanna Hall on August 17, 1963, when a fire broke out in the kitchen. Flames damaged the fixtures and walls, but a fireproof ceiling that had been installed just three weeks prior to the fire contained the flames well enough to keep the two-alarm blaze from spreading to the upper floors. A silver lining to the fire, however, was that it allowed the hall to undergo an extensive remodel to its kitchen, which is well used for dinners, breakfasts and cooking classes to this day.
With 115 years of history, the lodge's membership had some of the area's most notable names through the years. There was Thor Tollefson, a local attorney turned Pierce County Prosecutor and then Congressman. He would leave his mark on the lodge as well as Tacoma in general that would, of course, earn the honor of having a downtown plaza named after him.
And then there was Thea Foss. She is undeniably the lodge's most famous alum. Foss came to Tacoma with her husband Andrew in 1889. She immediately saw a business opportunity of renting boats. That venture grew to what is now Foss Maritime, a shipbuilding venture that now employs more than 1,000 people. She rose to international fame with the major motion picture telling her life story as the original "Tugboat Annie." The waterway closest to downtown is named in her honor.
Whether through its historical roots and landmark building or through the interest by modern residents, the walls of Normanna Hall continue to serve its members and the region at large. And it will well into the future.

Well, we just had our first occassion of a user running 10.8 wanting to install the popup client for their Macintosh. We had to disable gatekeeper to get the popup client to install. This is not an ideal process.
Are we likely to see Pharos be recognized as an identified developer or will it be feasible to get the popup client through the app store?

WESLACO, Texas — Imagine driving down the road and you see something slithering out from under your hood.
It happened to a woman leaving Estero Llano Grande state park in Weslaco.
According to park officials, Morgan Nolan was pulling out of a parking lot there and the snake came out as she was driving on the expressway.
First it went across the windshield and then wrapped itself around the rear-view mirror. She pulled over and let the slippery serpent slither on down to the ground.

McCollum's Lead Grows in Governor's Race
Republican gubernatorial candidate Bill McCollum's lead over Democrat Alex Sink in the race to replace Gov. Charlie Crist is opening up, the latest poll from Connecticut-based Quinnipiac University found Wednesday.
The poll, conducted Jan. 20-24, had McCollum leading 41-31 percent, up from its last finding of a 36-32 spread back in October. Quinnipiac Polling Director Peter Brown said McCollum appeared to benefit from his threat to sue if Congress passes its health care overhaul, which 49 percent of its 1,618 respondents said they supported.
"Attorney General Bill McCollum has moved out to a double-digit lead in the race for Governor," Brown said in a statement accompanying the poll. "He's beating CFO Alex Sink among independents and doing better among Democrats than Ms. Sink is doing among Republicans."
However, Brown also pointed out that the poll found neither Sink nor McCollum had high name recognition across the state – 48 percent of the poll's respondents said they "haven't heard enough" about McCollum to form an opinion of him and 68 percent said the same of Sink.
"McCollum shouldn't start picking out draperies for the governor's office," Brown said. "Certainly part of his lead is due to being somewhat better known than Ms. Sink – although neither one is a household name in the state."
The Quinnipiac poll also found McCollum holding a wide lead over his opponent in the Republican primary, state Sen. Paula Dockery. McCollum lead Dockery in the poll 44-6 percent, and 85 percent of its respondents said they did not know enough about the fiery Lakeland senator known for her opposition to the proposed SunRail commuter rail in Orlando.
Dockery also trailed Sink in a hypothetical general election match-up 35-29 percent.
Elsewhere, the poll found that a majority of Floridians support off-shore oil drilling, which was shaping up to be one of the upcoming session's hot topics before Senate President Jeff Atwater announced a lengthy review of the plan. Sixty-three percent of the poll's respondents said they support drilling nationally and 55 percent said they support tapping into Florida waters.
However, 53 percent said drilling within five miles of Florida coastlines is a "bad idea." Brown said the findings indicated a "not in my backyard" mood of state voters about drilling.
"Floridians favor more offshore drilling, just not too close to the state's coastline," said Brown. "They are okay with drilling in their neighborhood just not in their yard. On all of the drilling questions, Republicans and men are the most supportive, Democrats and women the least supportive and independents are in the middle."
Speaking Wednesday during the Associated Press' annual gathering of newspaper editors, Gov. Charlie Crist echoed the Quinnipiac Poll echoed the poll's uncertainty about drilling.
Asked if he supported drilling, Crist said "it depends on the technology, to be perfectly honest with you."
"The concerns that I have are several-faceted," Crist told reporters. "I'm concerned about our environment. I'm concerned about our beaches. I also understand the economy. I also remember that a couple years ago, the price of gas went up to $4 a gallon and that was kind of a tipping point in my view as it relates to this issue. I'm open to it, but it has to be far enough, safe enough and clean enough before I would support it."

The new pension rules: how to plan for a comfortable future
Tom McPhail, of Hargreaves Lansdown, explains how to make the best of your pension in light of recent pension rule changes.
What is the point of pensions, and how can we make best use of them? The obvious answer is to save for retirement, and to save as much as you can. But within that broad generalisation, the goalposts keep moving, and recent changes to the system (some of which are still in train) presents both opportunities and challenges.
LTAs, AAs and ISAs
The Lifetime Allowance (LTA) and Annual Allowance (AA) have both been subject to drastic reductions in recent years. After being set and then increased to improbably generous levels between 2006 and 2010, the subsequent cuts to the AA and to the LTA down to £1 million in particular, has left many middle to senior employees in their 40s and 50s wondering at what point they should opt out of their workplace pension.
After all, what's the purpose in paying your and your employer's contributions into a pension that's going to be taxed at 55% when you come to draw the money out?
Increasing numbers are likely to start using workplace ISAs as an alternative. I do feel the LTA is a policy measure that has outlived its usefulness; hopefully there will be scope to abolish it as part of the current Treasury pension tax review.
Those who pay 45% tax have now been served notice that from next April they will start to see their AA cut to just£10,000 a year for anyone earning over £210,000. This too feels like an ill-judged and short-termist policy, which can hopefully be reversed as part of the tax review.
In the meantime, for these top earners in particular, and in fact for anyone paying 40% tax, the higher rate tax-relief tap looks like it is about to be turned off, so it absolutely makes sense to fill your buckets this year, if you can.
As if to encourage the exploitation of this last gasp opportunity, the Treasury has also very helpfully reset the allowance for the remainder of the current tax year, which means that unless you have already paid over £40,000 into a pension in the current tax year before 9 July, you can pay in up to another £40,000 before the end of the current year (5 April 2016). You can also carry forward unused relief from the past 3 years, meaning a one-off, and probably final, chance to pay a six-figure sum into your pension and enjoy full marginal rate tax-relief. But proceed with caution, as the details, including pension input periods, are complicated.
The Treasury tax review is asking fundamental questions about our pension system. The basic principle of incentivising individuals (and their employers) to defer consumption, and to channel income into reserve accounts to pay for old age, still holds true. But just about everything else is up for grabs. My best guess is the Treasury will move to a flat-rate incentive system, probably around 30%, with a lower annual allowance and, hopefully, coupled with the abolition of the LTA. We'll find out later this year.
Pensions and inheritance planning
In the meantime, recent changes to the death benefits rules mean that pensions can now be legitimately regarded as an inheritance planning vehicle. For wealthier individuals, passing that wealth on through the pension system will be more tax-efficient than many other options. This in turn means that it makes sense to get as close to the LTA as possible and also, for some at least, to then run down other assets before the pension pot.
If you are sufficiently well-organised to die before age 75, the pension pot passes to beneficiaries entirely tax free. Even on death after age 75, the recipients are only liable to income tax at the time when they draw money from the pension pot. Philosophically, this seems to shift the relationship between the individual and their pension savings away from the state and broader society (through the tax system), and on to their immediate circle of family (and possibly friends, too).
Whatever the politics of this change, my one worry is that it is too generous. Past experience suggests that tax concessions that look too good to be true tend not to last very long.

The times I feel most like writing are when I'm coming out of a depressive haze. Now is one of those times. Well, when I started this posting in the early hours of May 29th, that is. Spent the majority of that day staring at this Chromebook's screen. A large majority of that was spent saying, "What the hell am I doing?" to myself, feeling the dull ache I usually do when helpless over a thing.
I had a multitude of people I could have written to in that late hour. A lot of people whom I've neglected writing, to be honest, but I honestly just wanted to have something to myself. To say these words out to me, whatever they may be, and reflect. That's what this blog is all about, and sometimes that's better than to try to attempt a connection with another person (a lot of persons). I think that's what's been lacking in my life right now. Or then. That I'm able to follow forth with these actions is another thing, because Feels. And hey, it's been some time since I started this, right?
So…I had a funk? What brought me out of it (or at least a little while)? A movie called Film Geek, which is a combination of good and bad. On one side, there are a collection of good shots and scenes which displays the understanding of amazing cinema and the filmmakers own appreciation of the craft (main character is basically Rain Man for films). Then there's sloppy flow, pace, transitions, and framing of shots which make you cringe, because they should have known better. If you're making a movie which talks about how much you love all these other movies, then presenting a product which shows how your love affected you is necessary. Film Geek still gets a pass from me despite this, because it touches me in a few places…
- I'm a fan of people "making stuff," especially if said "stuff" is a passion project, which I believe Film Geek was. Better that such a film exists than not at all.
- A movie that glorifies movies tickles my fancy more than a tad. See myself as a bit of a film buff, and connect with a lot of actions the lead takes. Even the stupid ones. On that…
- Film Geek is incredibly cruel to it's lead, who is beaten every step of the way because of what he can't change: himself. He's a social misfit whose brain is on a different level from others, and a lot of what others dislike him for would be helped if he just managed to connect with just a few people.
#3 isn't much of a reason to like Film Geek, though I do appreciate a film that doesn't hold back and kicks your teeth in a little (oh yeah, Film Geek has one of those endings). More than it's connecting with a lot of internal feels in what I put out to the world, especially if I happen to be associated with it. Might come as no surprise, but without fail I will go out of my way to degrade myself. If I'm creating a thing and happen to put myself in an important position, I need to make sure I belittle how big my part is, to the point of harm.
This is more than likely tied to my depression and feels of inferiority to others, but I honestly dislike personal projects which tout how awesome the makers are. The Room comes to mind, as does any big name making their own movie with them as the big cheese. Movies are not a means to show others how impressive and cool we are. A personal opinion more than anything, but it's never about you. Films are a media and means to tell stories or just share visuals/ideas. You go into it (or at least you should) with the knowledge you are serving others and not your own ego. My way of adhering to this idea is to force myself into positions where I'm otherwise despised. This feels like a safe place to work from…
…Felt? Hard to speak on thoughts that feel very different from the mood in which I now finish this (July 12th). I still believe in praising the works and the means in which it comes about, rather than the players whom play their part. Do I need to go to lengths of making my role in it all small, so as to remind myself of being humble? I think it's time I start giving myself some credit. It's noted I have no care for glamour, and regardless of what position of authority or title I go for, I just won't care. I'm there/here to do what needs to be done, to do what I want. Screw the praise and the self imposed feelings to appease others. Get the work over and done with and make good shit. Praise be to the oxymoron.
This has been another rambling blog from he who doesn't have his head on straight. A rambling blog which took a break in writing for over a month, and thus find myself in a different head space than before. Next month will hopefully see me changing a lot more. Details soon. Ish.

November 11 marks a very important day for many. In addition to it being Veterans' Day, it is Qawiyya's birthday! November 11 marks the anniversary of the end of World War I. Did you know that World War I is the only major U.S. war of the 20th century that does not have a national memorial in D.C. that honors all soldiers who fought in that war? 108-year-old, Frank Woodruff Buckles, is the country's only living WWI veteran and he is 'fighting' to have a memorial built in honor of ALL soldiers who served in that war. The students were given an option to write a letter to the President stating why they think a WWI memorial should be built. What will you do this Veterans' Day, (Nov. 11) to honor a soldier?

New 'n' Tasty Comparison 6 - Paramonian Temple
Posted on June 6, 2014 in News by Alf
There could only be one place to naturally follow up last week's trek across the wilderness of Paramonia—and sorry if you anticipated it would involve a well journey to the drier end of the continent so soon.
The rickety wooden walkways of the Paramonian Temple form a maze almost as complicated as Paramites' giant webs. The whole place is rigged with traps: some from the Native Mudokons that built it, some from the Paramites that infest the creaking chasms.
As ever, tell us what you think about the temple's newfound fidelity. We read everything you guys send us, and value your thoughts.
