Will tax deal grow or shrink deficit?
Like everything else in Washington these days, measuring the cost of the New Year's tax compromise approved by Congress depends on where you stand.
A three-page table from the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office Tuesday estimated that the bill would add almost $4 trillion in debt over the next 10 years, largely because of less revenue coming into the Treasury and more payments going out in the shape of refundable tax credits to lower-income working class families.
Story Continued Below
Near midnight, the White House budget office responded with a blog post saying that the CBO numbers distort the picture. The deal will actually reduce future deficits by about $630 billion, it argued, chiefly because of higher tax payments from the wealthy.
Adding in potential interest savings, the administration reaches a $737 billion deficit reduction figure.
Each argument has its strengths and weaknesses. But to understand the debt problem facing the nation, neither can be ignored.
CBO begins its analysis from its March current law baseline that assumes all of the Bush-era tax cuts would expire at New Year's Day. So no deficit-reduction credit is given for the fact that the deal raises rates for the wealthiest Americans.
Yet since last spring the CBO itself has warned that if nothing were done, the so-called "fiscal cliff" combination of tax increases and automatic spending cuts could throw the country back into recession.
Critics argue then that CBO's new deficit estimates should give more credit now to the improved economic growth that could result from the tax cuts. Most important, perhaps, the long-range CBO estimates don't reflect the fact that the deal is only the first step toward establishing a new baseline from which the White House and Republicans hope to work next year to carry out tax reform.
At one level in the talks, added tax cuts seemed to have been thrown into the mix — impacting the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT), for example — in order to influence this future baseline without regard to the deficit results.
In its response, the White House budget office says the better starting point is what it describes as "current policy" — not the "current law."
'The relevant point of comparison isn't current law, it is 'current policy' – those policies that were in place on Dec. 31st, the day before all of these changes were scheduled to take effect," writes Jeff Zients, the deputy director for management. By his reckoning, "under this more realistic scenario" the bill "not only keeps taxes low for the middle class, asks the wealthiest to pay their fair share, and helps the economy continue to grow, it also reduces the deficit."

It is intended to be more beautiful, adorable, and of course romantic, if you do it to your dining table. But sometimes, you have no idea on what kind of Dining Table Centerpieces you can have. Maybe some centerpieces below will help you to decide.The first is trying to put tea candle light. You can hold the candle with art glass look. It would create romantic nuance if you intend to have a romantic dinner with your special one. If you do not like the idea of candle, you can have vases on the dining table. If you have collection of antique vases, such as vintage vase, or Chinese vase, you can put on it. It will show case your collection while conducting the dinner with your friends.Another is vases, too, but it is not antique vases. Rather, it is glass vases. You can have some glass vases, and put some flower or plants on it. But make sure the flowers and plants are clean enough in order to make your dining table hygienic. Other option is some fruits. The fruits can be the real fruits, the fresh ones, or it can be artificial fruits. If it is the real ones, you have to eat it or change it every two or three days, if it is artificial ones, it could be long lasting.If you are a fish lover, you can put a small aquarium on the center of the dining table. You will see that it is attracting for your guests or the one who is invited. But, you have to choose the right fish.

Gilmat Interior, 2017-10-31 13:57:04.Are you thinking that dining table is important for your family? Most people believe that dinner time is quite important for a family since it provides time for them to conduct "small chat" and "sharing feeling". So, choosing the right dining table will be necessary. But, what about the shape of the dining table? Will it be better to have square or round kitchen table? Actually, there is an answer. It depends on your need, your family members, and the kitchen space. Here are some advantages of each shape, whether round or square.Both square and round dining tables are the most chosen kitchen table in round by most families. They are available in various sizes and they can be made of either metal or wood. They are ready to accommodate both small and large space, too. The consideration of choosing between two of them is the consideration of the space you have and how you want to maintain intimate and close relation in the dining table.So, the first is square shaped dining table. It is very much suitable for the room which is square. They are very useful in maintaining the proportion and the balance in the symmetrical room. If you choose square dining table, it usually accommodates around four up to eight persons. So, if your family members are four to eight at maximum, you can choose it. Moreover, if your kitchen is not so small, you could choose it. The other advantage is that when you choose this kind of dining table, you would be easy to combine one or two square dining table when you need extra table and chairs. The shape will not look odd.But, it sometimes creates a distance among people who are sitting there. It seems there is a particular distance that they have to reach. It is also not pretty easy to get the food when having meal in the square dining table. What about round dining table in the kitchen?Round dining table has advantage in the small dining room or small kitchen. It creates comfortable, warm and friendly atmosphere for the family members because of its round shape and small footprint. If you have small or young kids, it will be best option. It happens since it has no sharp edges so it will not harm them when they hit the edge of the round kitchen table. It has center area which is best area for conducting a game like card and board games.

Zen Master Who? is the first-ever book to provide a history of Zen's arrival in North America, surveying the shifts and challenges to Zen as it finds its Western home. With the exception of parts of Rick Field's How the Swans Came to the Lake, there has been no previous attempt to write this chronicle.
James Ishmael Ford begins by tracing Zen's history in Asia, looking at some of Zen's most seminal figures—the Sixth Ancestor Huineng, Dogen Zenji (the founder of the Soto Zen school), Hakuin Ekaku (the great reformer of the Rinzai koan way), and many others—and then outlines the state of Zen in North America today. Clear-eyed and even-handed, Ford shows us the history and development of the institution of Zen—both its beauty and its warts.
Ford also outlines the many subtle differences in teachings, training, ordination, and transmission among schools and lineages. This book will aid those looking for a Zen center or a teacher, but who may not know where to start. Suggesting what might be possible, skillful, and fruitful in our communities, it will also be of use to those who lead the Zen centers of today and tomorrow.

I thought it would be interesting to see what the minds behind Evangelion were doing before, during, and after their work on the franchise. Here are some of my favourite films to come from members of the Evangelion team.
Godzilla (1984) - Shinji Higuchi (uncredited SFX assistant)
It has been 30 years since Japan faced the wrath of Godzilla, and, with the monster killed, they have rebuilt. But now, a new, larger Godzilla has appeared, and the Japanese must find new a way to defeat the King of the Monsters, all while the USA and USSR prepare to destroy Godzilla with nuclear weapons - no matter the cost.
The Gamera Trilogy (1995-1999) - Shinji Higuchi (SFX director)
As Humanity is ravaged by the horrific, Man-eating Gyaos (pictured) and a ruthless Legion of alien insects, they are protected by Gamera, an Atlantean biological weapon created to defend the Earth. However, Gamera's ultimate loyalty to the Earth rather than Humanity soon results in devastating consequences for Humanity and Gamera alike.
Godzilla, Mothra, and King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack(2001) - Shinji Higuchi (SFX director for JASDF attack sequence)
It has been 47 years since Godzilla's first attack, and in that time he has faded into legend, with only the survivors remembering the terror. However, monsters soon begin appearing across Japan, preparing to do battle with a resurrected Godzilla, while a young journalist discovers Godzilla's horrific motivations.
Shin Godzilla (2016) - Hideaki Anno (writer, chief director), Shinji Higuchi (co-director, SFX director), and Shirō Sagisu (composer)
It's a routine day in Tokyo when, suddenly, a giant, bleeding, mutating creature comes ashore, tearing the city apart. As a few government officials, scientists, and JSDF personnel attempt to break through the government's stifling beauracracy, the entire world faces annihilation at the hands of a perfect organism surpassing Man, a god incarnate - Godzilla.

KEITH: My back pain lowers my strength that's for sure. WOuld like to workout more to cut a few pounds. Can someone tell me more about the TENS technology used in the revive back?
Reggie W.: No kidding, Ive gotten fat and its all due to an inability to exercise from low back pain. Used to run and play ball, dont do much of anything lately. Hoping a revive back belt can help me be more active again.
Anonymous: Yeah i hear you, it sure would be good to workout again. My sciatica ketp me from lifting for the past few montsh now. Thankfully i can still go to yoga and also do cardio by running but that's all. DO you know if you can wear the revive back belt while you lift?
allison889: An occasional pain in back areas isn't so bad, but mines' gettting to be all the time so will the Revive Back help build up muscles or is it just to deaden pain cause I ndd some way to get storng so this doesn't happen all the time.
Brooke: not sure I have sciatica but I have lower back opain and want revive back to get over it as quickly as possible I dont want to bother with any other
Laryssa James: You can RUN with a bad back? Hmmmm. I wonder if I wore the Revive Belt if I couldn't do that too, the extra support and all, maybe it would relieve back pain enough so I could get out there running again too, that would be so great, my legs look like crap.
daphne b: Al I know is medical professionals use TENS for treating back pain lower upper chronic, everything, i think. Guess it prevents us from feeling the pain..which would be great because, even yoga is sometimes unbearable lately.
Andria: Well if you're wondering if you have sciatica then you probably don't a back ache is one thing, having your legs hurt really bad along with your back is another, but it sounds like Revive Back can maybe help with both, I'm sure in the market for that!
Anonymous: I'm getting my wife a revive Back because she says she needs back treatment for all the pain she has but I say she just needs to get off her back and exercise, so this belt should take care of the issue.

Nedz: IS the ReviveBack anything like that flex belt thing? I've read about that for toning the abs, and since mine are sorta outta shape I wondered if that's why i've got back pain low in my back too, from weak abs? NOt sure what issue to tackle first but maybe one could help the other..like a stronger back would make situps easier, and a stronger stomach would provide some back relief perhaps.
Joan: Looks like a cool device but not sure I'd use it, so many of these gadgets seem cool but then I just forget about them. PLus some of my close friends are chiropractors so..anyways, no reviveBack for me but I appreciate the info. What exercises are any of you doing for back lower pain by the way, because I was wondering if Pilates is okay.
Lynna: Ththe revive back review for back ache seems like a good home treatment you can use when you need it, thats my 2 cents.
Anonymous: Back pain treatment with a belt, and then support when you're not using it to block pain, Revive BAck sounds like something I should def find out more about. I mean I know how to exercise, I just need to feel better to actually do that exercise.
Marjorie: Oh the Flex belt is awesome! BUt, its totatlly different technology than the revive Back belt. Only similarity is that you wear them both. But the belt, actually tones your abs, where this I guess works the nerves in the back to relieve back pain. IF your back ache is so bad (& your abs are so weak) probably best to try out both, imo. NOt sure.
Lilly: Back pain relief is what I'm after, Revive Back is osmething I'm going to try because I've treid about everything elese, new thing, STEP UP!
Eva K.: I guess I must have sciatica because somedays I can hardly get out of bed I just hurt all over, so can you do a treatment with the Revive Back when you're lying down, or do you have to be sitting up to use it?
MADDY: To answer an earlier question… I guess TENS in revive back can be considered like home therapy for back lower pain.
Jess: when you need back relief its time to get a good remedy and I dont want drugs or chiropractoers I think that I can get revive back and feel good.
Anonymous: AH YEAH THANKS FOR ALL THE INFO ON REVIVE BACK.
Steve: WOnder if this is worth it for just an occasional backache?
john: Revive Back for back pain lower area, what about up in the middle part of my back, is there enough "belt" to put around a higher area?
Vickie P.: Well the revive back is $199 so i guess it depends what you call "occasional"? If you need back relief at least a few times a week i would say it's worth it.
Theresa: back pain low needs some comfort and healing and I think revive back seems like aN easy choIce. Now if i could figure out which fat burner to use.
Anonymous: TENS is used in PT offices and by chiropractors to relieve back pain though isn't it? Cuz I like the fact that its medical grade technology, not just some massage thing from sharper image.
lilgreenmen: Waht about sciatic pain relief, is Revive Back strong enough to deal with that?
AnnieH: Sciatic pain is nothing I ever expected at this age, what's the deal? My mother had it, actually, so maybe it's genetic, but I sure don't like it.

Let me say I only went to one, once was enough. Love the idea of at home treatment on my own terms. THANKS!
John: I love my Revive back. The moment I put it on, I felt better – then I turned it on. This is the best, instantaneous relief there is. It's better than ice. I cannot say enough about how much I love this product.

I have read many bad things about the homeopathic HCG drops, such as they don't even contain HCG.If any of you are doing the HCG diet, where would you recommend getting the drops from? Are you really having as much success as you thought you would before starting the diet? Has anyone tried HCG platinum from GNC? Thank y'all for your help!

Revive Back comes with a convenient design that makes it easy to use and comfortable to wear all day long. It can be worn under clothing, and its handheld control makes for easy pain management monitoring. If you want instant pain relief and youve tried everything else, Revive Back is for you. Click here for more information, but before you do, read on.
Revive Back is designed to do one job and do it well: relieve pain. The belt is able to do this because of FDA cleared TENS technology. TENS stands for Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation. It has been used by medical professionals for years, but now this amazing pain therapy is available for in home use by average consumers.
TENS is safe and effective, and the best part is that it involves no medications or invasive procedures. Rather, TENS works following an idea known as the pain gate theory. Essentially, the pain gate theory shows how pain signals travel from body parts toward the brain to let the brain know what the body is experiencing. As the brain perceives the signals, the person goes through all of the physical, mental, and emotional distress involved in heightened pain sensations.
To put it bluntly, but accurately, TENS blocks these pain signals so that they cant reach the brain. So by wearing Revive Back and allowing it to transmit its TENS signal, consumers dont simply reduce the sensation of pain. Amazingly, and finally, they can live pain free.
Revive Back uses 4 medical grade gel pads to transmit the current that blocks pain signals. The belts controller provides 3 pain management settings for user control.
Program 1 provides instant pain relief with up to an hour of pain relief after you take the belt off.
Program 2 provides instant pain relief with up to 3 hours of relief afterward.
And Program 3 provides users with a way to stimulate endorphin release. Endorphins are the bodys natural pain relievers, and releasing them into the body can provide several hours of pain management in an unparalleled, natural way.

According to estimates, more than 50 percent of Americans will suffer back pain this year, and over 80 percent will go through it at some point in their lifetime. These are dismal statistics. Even more troubling is the ease with which many consumers turn to prescription pain pills for help when back pain inevitably strikes.
Consumers are rightly wary of becoming dependent on drugs like this, so theyre looking for effective alternatives. The trouble is that most alternatives are not as effective. Most, that is, until Revive Back. This safe and effective pain manager does not require pain medication. And of course, surgery is out of the question. This is just simple, convenient, all day long pain relief.

The young woman suddenly leapt from the stage onto the lap of the gentleman sitting in the front row, right next to me. I was thoroughly startled, and, I must confess, a bit disappointed that the jumper had not chosen my lap.
In the role of Hermia in "A Midsummer Night's Dream," this charming actress was one of fifteen lyric and aerobic performers for Shakespeare & Company.
The company, located in Lenox, Massachusetts, was created by the legendary Tina Packer. Tony Semotes, her successor, directed this magnificent performance.
"Midsummer" proved one of the highlights of a recent trip that my wife Susan and I made to the Berkshires. We were determined to inhale a great deal of the local artistic culture, which is justly celebrated.
This goal brought us to the Clark Museum in Williamstown, a regional treasure whose buildings and grounds have recently been transformed. The new setting, featuring a calm waterscape amidst the surrounding hills, is itself a work of art.
We also visited The Mount, designed and built by the novelist Edith Wharton. The house and gardens are meticulously composed. What is most moving is the enduring personality of the author herself.
A very different venue is the museum dedicated to Norman Rockwell. We looked at innumerable Saturday Evening Post covers, some of which we remembered from long ago. Rockwell had great skill and journalistic perception but he fails to move me deeply.
I was moved, however, by the Hancock Shaker Village, which was home to a Shaker community for almost 200 years. It was fascinating to discover their way of religious life, so carefully ordered but ultimately doomed to disappear.
Our last evening was spent at Tanglewood where, as part of a large audience, we greeted Andris Nelsons, the new music director of the BSO. With music by Dvorak, including the Violin Concerto and his Eighth Symphony, the young conductor proved worthy of the warm welcome he received.
This visit to Lenox and its environs made me reminisce. Long ago, I spent four years of my life in Lenox. There I lived in what was then called Shadowbrook, a mansion formerly owned by Andrew Carnegie, among others.
The Jesuits bought the place in 1922 and used it for the training of men wishing to enter the order. That's what brought me there in 1949 as a novice ready for instruction in Jesuit life.
In 1956, several years after I had moved on, the Shadowbrook mansion was destroyed in an immense fire that killed four Jesuits and injured several others. All the younger men managed to escape, though some suffered injury.
As I look back at Shadowbrook, I have to celebrate my introduction to a deeper spiritual life. There were also friendships that I came to value and still do. One of my incidental memories was of hearing the strains of a Sibelius symphony performed by the BSO at Tanglewood, the next property to ours.
However, I later came to see the aspects of the novitiate experience that were not good for me. Had I been more mature than my age of twenty-one allowed, I might have known how to choose and judge better.
Visiting the Shakers recently, I reflected upon my early Jesuit experience. The differences are obvious but there was enough in the Shaker way of life to stir memory of the indoctrination that rubbed against the grain.
I only wish that my earlier contact with the region had featured more of the wisdom of later life instead of the green judgment of my younger self.
Our visit to western Massachusetts showed me once more the natural beauty of our state. And this beauty is intensified by a wealth of artistic expression.

Four sides or six? It actually does make a difference
Here are two topics you don't see combined too often: Professional wrestling and geometry.
There's been a lot of discussion in the wrestling community since Hulk Hogan banished TNA's signature six-sided ring and replaced it with a standard four-sided wrestling at Sunday's Genesis pay-per-view. While some TNA officials, including Hogan and color commentator Taz, both praised the change as a welcome "back-to-basics" move, other TNA loyalists had become quite attached to the six-sided ring, which they saw as a symbol of TNA's distinctiveness. Many of the latter group of fans made their preference quite clear as they chanted "We want six-sides!" at the start of the pay-per-view.
The majority of wrestling fans likely fall into a third category – those who don't really care one way or another what shape TNA's ring is. They believe the company is wasting time and energy spending more than a second addressing the matter – especially when so much else needs fixing. Those fans would argue that, other than aesthetic appeal, there is no significant difference between a square ring and a hexagonal one.
But I beg to differ. While I agree that the six-sided ring did serve to set TNA apart from WWE – if only in a largely shallow way – I applaud Hogan and company for making the change back to a standard-issue, four-sided ring. Besides the fact that they simply look right, wrestling rings have historically had four sides for several reasons. Here are a few of them:
. A four sided ring has more space: Take a couple of slices of hard salami, some pepperjack cheese, and honey maple turkey, put them between two slices of white bread, and you've got quite the appetizing lunch. Now, take your knife and cut off each of the four corners. Indeed, the length of the sandwich from the top to the bottom, and from the left side to the right would all remain the same. But the perimeter is quite a bit smaller. In other words, you'd have considerably less sandwich to eat. It's simple geometry. While the distance between opposite sides on the six-sided ring may be the same as in a four-sided ring, overall wrestlers have lost square footage in their workspace. If you believe otherwise, I'd encourage you to attend a live TNA event. You'd be surprised how small the ring looks up close.
. A four-sided ring has right angles: My fifth grade teacher Ms. Youngs would be so proud of me for what I am about to write. You see, as a square, a standard wrestling ring has four 90-degree angles. However, an equilateral hexagon, as TNA's six-sided ring was, has six angles of 120 degrees each. While that may mean little to you, right angles actually serve several purposes within a wrestling match. For one, they allow wrestlers to plant there feet in a more natural forward-facing position when standing on the top rope – giving them firmer footing when executing high-risk maneuvers. Right angles are also effective tools for inflicting punishment. Ramming your opponent back-first into a sharp, 90-degree angle during a ringside brawl could do considerably more damage than a wider 120-degree angle.
. A four-sided ring keeps wrestlers further away from the ropes: Nothing takes the suspense out of a potentially perilous submission hold like having the ring ropes just a few inches away – almost ensuring that the wrestler in danger will reach the ropes, and force the referee to break the hold. In a standard ring, a wrestler –in-peril can hope to be within reach of one of four sides. In a six-sided ring, he's got a 50-percent better chance of forcing a break – making submission moves considerably less suspenseful.
. A four-sided ring allows fans to be closer to the action: While TNA officials may have had no problem in laying out the Impact Zone so fans would be seated facing each of the ring's six sides, such a layout can present a challenge in most other arenas. And so, while TNA's ring may have had six sides, ringside fans were routinely seated on four sides. That means that fans seated near the corners would be considerably further away from the ring than fans seated in the middle of the rows. And I bet there tickets weren't any cheaper.
If I racked my brain out, I could probably think of other reasons to favor a traditional four-sided wrestling ring over TNA's experimental six-sided one. And, of course, reasonable people could probably find some benefits of keeping the hexagon. Chief among them would be that TNA's will likely now have to scrap some of the infrastructure that was especially built for the six-sided ring, including its steel cages.
But, I for one, am a firm believer in the old adage about not fixing something that ain't broke. It's called the "squared circle" for a reason.

I always found the six sided ring to be distracting. As an old school fan, I found it to be very gimmicky. The change may allow new TNA viewers to take the brand more seriously. This is a smart move by Hogan. Hall, Waltman, Nasty Boys; not so much.

you know that pro wrestling is fake, right?
