Back yourself against the crowd
The Delphi method is a systematic way to produce an estimate or forecast. A facilitator guides a panel of experts through a process that gradually narrows range of their individual answers until they converge towards the optimal answer. Many such consensus forecasts have proven to be more accurate than forecasts made by individuals.
In "The Wisdom of Crowds", the author Surowiecki suggests you use four key criteria to separate wise crowds from irrational ones:
· Diversity of opinion: Each person should have private information even if it's just their own interpretation of commonly known facts.
· Independence: People's opinions aren't determined by the opinions of those around them.
· Decentralization: People are able to specialize and draw on local knowledge.
· Aggregation: Some mechanism exists for turning private judgments into a collective decision.
But again, the careerist will ask: How many managers are promoted as a reward for painstaking work to establish a consensus?
Systematic decision methods appeal to analysers. The gamblers who tend to reach the topmost management positions prefer to go with their instinct. Why embark on a procedure that will either reach a decision you would rather be seen as making yourself? or contradict what you want to do?
2 comments:
Indeed - and most recent studies support the validity of the gamblers' behaviour. A study by Professor Nalini Ambady of Tufts University, Massachusetts into "thin slicing" - in effect our ability to make accurate and long lasting judgements following a few seconds input - concludes that "thinking about the judgements you make could make you less accurate. We've found that when we ask people to deliberate before thay make a decision they tend not to be as good as if they do it non-consciously".ReplyDelete

OK, but the contrast above is not between instant and deliberate judgements (of the kind an individual can be asked to make in a controlled experiment); it is between gambles (instant or deliberated) and calculations based on analysis of information from several sources.ReplyDelete

PARIS, Feb 15 (Reuters) - French food group Danone unveiled a new 1 billion euros ($1.1 billion) cost cutting plan, saying the turnaround of its dairy division in Europe was taking longer than expected while tough conditions in China would also endure in 2017.
The world's largest yoghurt maker did not provide provide sales or operating profit margin growth targets for the current year, saying it would review its financial goals for 2017 after closing its acquisition of U.S. organic food group WhiteWave, which is slated for the first quarter.
Danone, which makes Activia yoghurt, Evian water and Bledina babyfood, said like-for-like sales in 2016 rose 2.9 percent to 21.94 billion euros ($23.22 billion), in line with analysts' expectations of 2.9 percent growth for 2016, which was a slowdown from 4.4 percent growth in 2015.
The slowdown reflected tough market conditions in Spain and problems with the relaunch of its Activia brand in Europe, which held back dairy sales growth in the final quarter, while pressures in the Chinese market weighed on baby food sales.
Danone had flagged the European dairy problem in December, warning its 2016 sales growth would come below its original target of 3-5 percent.
Its operating margin rose by 70 basis points to 13.77 percent, in line with analysts' expectations of 13.71 percent.

For anyone who is familiar with Korea, you probably have heard of the comic 'My Korean Husband'. While I myself have never been with a Korean guy, I can still understand and find humor in her comics because of my Korean guy friends. The comics they make are about the cultural differences and quirks that arise when you're married to a Korean person. I also like that they show Korea is a positive light, and are some of them can be quite entertaining. If you have not seen or read them before I highly recommend them!
Earlier this week we had the opportunity to meet, do a LIVE CHAT (which was super fun!), and make some videos afterwards with Nichola and Hugh. It was a lot of fun and that was a real treat! Hugh had us cracking up trying to eat a spicy pepper.
We made a video for our channel and we also shot a video for their channel too. Since Nic likes Korean dramas too, I decided to play a game of Charades with her. Richard put a bunch of Korean drama titles in a bowl, neither of us saw them before hand, we chose dramas randomly out of the bowl and then had 30 seconds to convey the drama to the other person. It turned out quite funny! Still not quite sure who won but we both had a blast in the process and that's what counts, right?
Be sure to give Nichola and Hugh from the My Korean Husband blog some love and subscribe to their channel. Also subscribe to our channel as well! Why not, it's free right?! ☺
Thanks for being awesome everyone! Richard and I appreciate your support!

Dean & DeLuca Ratings and Reviews
Always enjoy this spot for a nice meal...and the small plates are wonderful. Hadn't been in a while, and they've changed the menu quite a bit. I miss many of the "old" offerings, but it's still incredible food, and the small interior makes for a cozy, intimate evening. When the weather is warmer, the patio is equally lovely.
Almost everything was on the positive side. The not positive commen5 is about t8ming. We order an appetizer to share at the table (3 people) and told th3 server we wanted to have it before the main course. In all reality, the appetizer arrived just 3 minutes or so before the rest of the mail.
So, must of the appetizer was left there untouched.
That is a very important detail when attending to a table.
Th3 rest of the Service was impecable, from beginning to end.
Great place for small plates or tapas style and awesome wine selection from the D&D wine store. It was wonderful menu offers during Charlotte Wine and Tapas Week for $30 package (2 tapas & 2 glass of wine). Will definitely be back soon for date night.
We have always enjoyed Dean & Deluca wine room, but we shocked to see the scaled down menu and that the wine flights were gone. Although, there is still a sparkling flight, but It came out without any cards to indicate what we were tasting. Service was slow, considering the restaurant was fairly empty. We opted only for apps and went elsewhere to eat dinner. My husband had to get the server so we could pay (she was sitting at the bar chatting). We were unimpressed and disappointed after years of inventive dishes and great wine.
The food was delicious! Scallops, tuna tartar, shrimp appetizer with guacamole on a tortilla- 5 total. Also the crabcakes with arugula salad was also note worthy. And the Ashley Farms chicken dish with mash potatoes and seasonal greens, along with Tiramasu and carrot cake were all really good. We had 6 with us and will definitely be back. The wine selection by the glass is one of the best selections in the city. Oh! We had a wonderful tequila, curacao, blood orange soda cocktail to start.
we like dean and DeLuca but there were a couple of unfortunate changes to the menu we noticed this time. first, instead of a charcuterie tray that had both cheese and meat, they only offered cheese or meat. if we wanted both we would have had to buy one full tray for instance of cheese and add on at an extra cost 1-2 meats. not sure why they did this or why we couldn't just mix and match from both. also, the coffee bar closes at 8pm on a weeknights while the restaurant stays open, so even tho it was only 8:15 we couldn't get coffee of any kind. that's crazy. other than that, the food is good. wine by the glass is a bit pricey and the full meal price is a as well - but for sharing appetizers, small plates, salads pricing was ok. all and all we'll still go back - it is just confounding why restaurants do certain things that are non-sensical..
Not crowded so service was attentive. Bass, our waiter, was very personable without being intrusive. He was knowledgeable regarding wine and food selection. The food was very good beginning with a mouth-watering Tuna Tartare. Our Prime Strip steaks were tasty with my wife's a bit overdone and replaced quickly without question. A piece of strawberry cake became a shared dessert and finished a fine meal. We are already planning our next dinner at Dean & Deluca.
Food and service were fine. However, the chef and kitchen staff had resigned en masse and no entrées were available -- only appetizers and sandwiches! Obviously, we should have been appraised of this problem when we made the reservation -- we probably would have chosen a different restaurant. Not handled in a professional manner.
Had previously tried a dinner where noise level with full house was very high. Easter Brunch afternoon was quiet, but seemed short staffed on staffing to clear tables of buffet courses and get drink refills, etc. Coffee was tepid, asked for fresh hot cup and came back lukewarm. Most food was good. Omelets a bit dry but good content. Restaurant side not yet up to quality of excellent deli side, but apparently trying.
Confusing and disorganized. Some of the servers were rude and were impatient as we try to decide what to eat and how to order. No real guidance unless you had been there prior. Ambiance was good, eclectic. Prices were unbelievably high. Never thought Anyone would beat Starbucks on price for an espresso. They did by a lot. Unlikely I would return
We had a 12PM reservation. When we got there, the restaurant had not opened due to the snow that we got on Saturday night. There was no snow on the roads anywhere and all of the other staff was working...only the restaurant employees did not show up. We ordered at the counter and sat in the restaurant with no service and no music...quite disappointing. There was no manager to be found to explain what was going on.
Went there for Valentine's Day and enjoyed a great bottle of wine but the food was disappointing. The crab claws in the Seafood Sampler were frozen and not thoroughly defrosted. The lobster tail was very overcooked and rubbery. The crabcake however was delicious.
The gnocchi was overcooked to the point of gumminess and the branzino was not properly filleted - I don't mind one or two pinbones but there were at least half a dozen.
Nothing special was offered for dessert - we shared a cheesecake in a heartshaped dish - it was more corny than delicious.
Just felt like they got sloppy with the preparation and not a lot of thought went into the menu.
Love the bartender staff not crazy about manager they didn't have our table reserved so we had to squish in at bar fortunately Scott the bartender was great and the menu shown at the door was not available so that was disappointing. It's a pricey wine bar but it's convenient if we want a small bite and the bar staff and local crowd keeps us going back.
Terrible experience from start to finish. Poorly managed restaurant. Still waiting on something to drink-just a refill on my water would have been great. Never made it to the food-we left and the manager offered nothing -would not speak to us. We were not asking for free food -just wanted to talk--Interesting way of handling things, huh!
The good was very good, lobster bisque and beef stroganoff. The wine was good too. All fair price. The service was limited at best. The noise level was too high to talk to anyone. They need to address sound absorption issues. Also to add to the noise issue was live music, which was good, but also complicated the already terrible noise level issue. It actually ruined dinner. We left with a very lack luster feeling, not really wanting to dine or drink there again. The waitress could care less as to our presence.

Formula One champions Jenson Button and Lewis Hamilton hailed fellow Briton Dan Wheldon as a "true fighter" and an "inspirational" figure after the IndyCar driver was killed in a massive crash in Las Vegas.
Button recalled Wheldon, who died Sunday at the age of 33, as being a star of the British karting circuit in the 1990s before going on to win the Indianapolis 500 twice.
"I have so many good memories of racing with Dan in the early 90s, a true fighter," Button said on Twitter.
"We've lost a legend in our sport but also a great guy ... I can't begin to imagine what his family are going through and my thoughts are with them at this very difficult time."
Wheldon, who was born in Buckinghamshire, a county just north of London, was also an inspiration to Hamilton after deciding to try his luck in the U.S. following a successful junior career during which he won eight British karting titles.
"Dan was a racer I'd followed throughout my career, as I often followed in his footsteps as we climbed the motor sport ladder in the UK," said Hamilton, Button's teammate at McLaren.
"He was an extremely talented driver. As a British guy who not only went over to the States but who twice won the Indy 500, he was an inspirational guy, and someone that every racing driver looked up to with respect and admiration. This is a tragic loss at such a young age."
Hamilton finished second in Sunday's Korean Grand Prix, with Button fourth.
Wheldon died Sunday after a massive, fiery wreck at the Las Vegas Indy 300. He was involved in a 15-vehicle pile-up, his car flying over another and bursting into flames.
Wheldon was born in the small English village of Emberton and began driving go-karts as a 4-year-old.
Having failed to secure financial backing for his career in Europe, he moved to the U.S in 1999. In 2005, he became the first English driver since Graham Hill in 1966 to win the Indy 500. Wheldon won the race for a second time this year.
Despite his success and stardom in the U.S., Wheldon was relatively unknown in his home country. Formula One racing grabs all the media coverage in Europe, with IndyCar receiving little notice.

Visakhapatnam | A day after 24 Maoists, including some top cadres, were killed in 'exchange of fire' with police on the Andhra-Odisha border, revolutionary writer Varavara Rao today termed the incident as a "fake encounter".
"The gun fight was a fake encounter. Police surrounded the Maoists at their meeting and shot them in cold blood and claimed it as an exchange of fire between them and rebels," he said.
He said the police are also claiming "fresh exchange of fire" today.
"Fact is they caught some Maoists alive yesterday and today they are killing them."
Rao alleged that TDP government in Andhra Pradesh and BJP- led dispensation at Centre are trying to "loot" minerals in Agency areas along Andhra-Odisha border.
"They have now started killing rebels who have been safeguarding the minerals with locals and are protecting the rights of innocents," he claimed.
Meanwhile, A Sirisha, wife of top Maoist leader A Haragopal alias Ramakrishna, left for Malkangiri in Odisha to collect bodies of her son A Munna, who is believed to have been killed in the exchange of fire, and others.
A day after the incident, combing operations by security forces are still going on with AP DGP (Incharge) N Sambasiva Rao supervising the operations from helicopter.

A few milestones
JustAPlaneRideAway | Jan 27, 2012 | Comments 5
Well, hello there! Happy New Year, one month in ;) It's been a while, hasn't it? I hope all of you have been well.
I took a few pictures when I went to Guildford this week. I haven't been taking a lot of photos lately, mostly because I've been working on my Berklee music biz classes (that means staying at home to study most of the time!!!). The photog work I have done has been Roxi-related, either for her solo project or for her various bands.
But when I went into Guildford the other day to do a bit of shopping, I decided to take along my handy little point and shoot in the hopes that I would slow down enough to look around. I almost forgot to take photos, though! I was out for about an hour when I realized. Oops! I guess I'm a little bit out of practice.
These days, so much of my time outside of my house has been spent running errands, dashing here and there, missing all of the details that I would have noticed nearly five years ago when we first moved to England. Can you believe it? Five. Years. And JaPRA is five years old too. Some of you have been here since the very beginning. Thank you for that, my friends x :)
Abbot Hospital, established 1619.
On a cold day in mid-February 2007, I walked very slowly around the Parliament buildings in London and thought, "I should never, ever take it for granted that I'm living overseas. I will always remember this thrill of living in such an incredible place."
Angel Posting House has a stone vault undercroft that dates back to 1300. I think there are supposed to be ghosts here too!
Well, five years later I probably have taken all this a tiny bit for granted. Especially since I've been on a hiatus from the blog. The nice thing about photography is it forces you to slow down and really look. And the nice thing about blogging is it gives you a chance to think. I'm hoping to get back to this space, at least on a weekly basis. I'm down to my last four classes for my certification program at Berklee, and I've decided to take only one class at a time instead of doubling up. I'm striving for a bit more balance this year ;)
And one last milestone… this girl is turning 17 on Saturday. She's an incredible person, a talented musician, a smart chickie, and the dearest daughter and friend. I'm so proud of her. Happy Birthday, Roxi girl!! xxx

Happy Birthday to Roxi! Welcome back to the blogosphere! Fabulous photos, have to get to London one of these days.
It's good to see you back!
Happy birthday to Roxy and congratulations on all her achievements the past year. And good luck to you with your diploma!
Beautiful pictures of Guilford – so many interesting details… walking about with the camera opens your eyes to things that we normally don't see when we go about our daily routine out on the streets….
Hope to see you here more often though I can imagine that you have much more important things to take care of than your blog! ;)
good to see you back in the blogworld! fantastic shots, esp the errant boot on top of the pedestrian crossing sign, as well as the one of roxy – happy birthday wishes to her ;-)
It's been a year (You've been in England 6 years now!) and I bet a lot has changed ;)
Happy Birthday Roxi, I haven't been shopping in Guildford for so long, must change that!

Business Terms
Ok, that title isn't 100% correct, but I'm going with close enough. If Google sent you here and you are disappointed, blame their search algorithm's over-reliance on title tags and header tags for ranking webpages and other content in their search engine results pages, or SERPs. Now, onto the main event.
Basically, this page serves as a place and manner to define useful phrases, terms, and acronyms for business, strategy, or other purposes by me and my like minded writers. If you coin a phrase that I think really hits the nail on the head, I'll list it here with a credit link (fully followed link, by the way) back to you and your original usage. Or, where I first saw it. If you own the site that I link to and would like the credit link to point to another page, let me know. Just make sure it is where the phrase is used first or most or best. I'm not interested in linking to your keyword optimized, SEO enhanced, one-page on the whole website that you optimize for webpages page.
- The Big G
I have this theory that Google may (or may not) adjust the indexing and ranking of certain webpages about certain topics depending upon whether or not they are mentioned. Likewise, terms like indexes, SERP, search engines, and so on, would get the same treatment. I have no proof, or evidence. It just seems

Stipend Increase Schedule
Q: When are the increases going to be implemented?
A: Here is the "tentative" schedule from the University: The lump sum retroactive payment for the FY10 1.5% base stipend increase will be paid on the January 21, 2011 paydate.
The new stipend rates for the FY11 2.5% base stipend increase will be set in the February 18, 2011 pay advice, including any 1.0% pool minimum stipend adjustments. The lump sum retroactive payment for the FY11 stipend increases will be paid on the March 4, 2011 paydate.
Q: Why is it called a "tentative" schedule?
A: Juan Jarrett tells us that his email used the term "tentative" because he once had an issue with processing four years of bulk retro payments after Mitt Romney had held up all pay increases during his term as Massachusetts Governor. The processing was held up briefly after the schedule was announced, so he now uses the term "tentative".
Q: Why are the raises occurring so late?
A: The first raise should have gone into effect on August 30, 2009. The second raise should have gone into effect on August 30, 2010. The University did not comply with these dates, which we negotiated in the last contract, because the Massachusetts state legislature never passed legislation approving the funding appropriation for our contract.
Over the last Summer, the University came to the unions on campus that had unfunded contracts with a request that they open the contracts to take concessions, pushing raises back a year and eliminating retro pay. GEO and UAW Local 2322 were adamant that we would not open the contracts to take concessions, particularly because the University could offer no guarantee that the concessionary contracts would ever be funded. When the University was sending the other campus unions' modified contracts to the legislature, they asked that the Governor's office send our contract funding bill to the legislature again. The Governor's Office responded that they had made other changes to the University's budget that should allow them to fund the GEO contract out of the University's budget.
Q: Why are the raises happening in the Spring instead of this pay cycle?
A: The University has provided us two reasons for this. First, the payroll department is going into their crunchtime for the year – preparing for year-end tax reporting. Second, the Graduate Assistantship Office is already processing Spring 2011 Graduate Fellowship and Assistantship Forms (GFAF's), popularly known as department contracts. These contracts have been written with the old department rates, because departments have not received guidance from human resources on their new rates (including the pool, etc.).
Because of this, the University is concerned that, if they implemented the raises now, people will see a raise this semester and then a return to their old rate at the start of the Spring semester, while the University tries to fix the rates in the new Spring GFAF's. People would eventually get all of their pay, but it would be a confusing way to implement the system, and it would also hold up the AY2010-2011 pool calculation, which has to be based on weighted averages of stipends that have received the AY2009-2010 increases.
Pool Calculations
Q: What is the Pool?
A: The pool is an increase to the lowest minimum stipends on campus by an amount calculated by "multiplying the total campus state- and GOF –funded bargaining unit payroll in effect on September 5, 2010 by one (1) percent." This amount of money is "used to raise the lowest minimum stipends across campus to a level possible with this amount. Those schools, colleges, and executive areas so leveled by this pool shall have a new minimum stipend corresponding to the new level. Graduate student employees in said school, college, or executive area shall have their stipend increased to the new minimum, if necessary" (GEO Contract, Article 32, §2).
Q: Why do we have a pool?
A: The pool reflects GEO's desire to level out the minimum stipends across campus by bringing up the lowest department stipends rather than setting artificially low minimums across the whole campus. The use of the pool in contracts over the last two decades has lessened disparities between department minimums to the point where there could be one campus-wide minimum stipend within the next round of bargaining.
Retro Payments
Q: How will people who have left the University get their retro?
A: The University attempt to contact former Graduate Student Employees (GSE's) eligible for retro payments, and will send checks to the addresses people left on file with their departments. If a check has not been deposited by the time it is voided, the money will be sent to the state's unclaimed funds account in the GSE's name.
Q: What taxes will be applied to the retro checks?
A: For currently active GSE's, members current withholding rates will be applied to the payments. For former GSE's receiving lump sum retro checks, the Massachusetts supplemental income tax rate will apply. That rate is 25% Federal, 5.3% MA. This is likely a higher marginal rate than what people currently pay, so there will be more money withheld from that check than there would be for their typical withholding. As always, people should be sure to get their W-2 following the end of the calendar year 2011 so that they can receive a tax refund if they are owed one.

I swear to God this kid is going to give me a freaking heart attack.
I'm not talking about her new-found temper tantrum kick. Nor am I talking about her obsession with making us read I Love You Through and Through over and over again. Having to read it 8 times in a row to avoid her screaming her head off is enough to drive me freaking insane, but not quite heart attack inducing. I suppose the amount of drinking I've done lately to silence the book's prose as it endlessly plays through my head may eventually cause a heart attack, but I digress.
We started her on solids. Real solids, not just the vaporized fruits and vegetables thing that people claim are solids. Thankfully, I took a CPR class for work a few weeks ago, which has made me feel a little more at ease with the process.
Until tonight, that is. Granted, only one out of every five attempts at picking up a piece of food is successful. The rest have one of a number of results:
- Dropped down her bib
- Dropped down her onesie and into the diaper, making for a fun game of "What do you think THAT is?" when changing her later
- Slides from her fingers into her palm, unreachable by her mouth
- Falls out of her mouth, mushy and disgusting with baby spit
- Thrown, forcibly, to the floor, usually mushy and disgusting with baby spit
- Stuck in her hair by the adhesive qualities of disgusting baby spit
On one rare occasion where food actually entered her mouth tonight, she winced and coughed. I have been repeatedly telling myself she's still learning and that mistakes will happen. Yet after a few hours, she still looked like she was having trouble getting the turkey meat back up. Some of you may think I'm exaggerating, but in my opinion, time perceived is very real. And those of you who don't think I'm exaggerating obviously have kids of you own and fully understand what I mean.
Luckily, her gag reflexes kicked in and she coughed it up. Unluckily, I had already shit my pants in fear and bolted upright from my seat, hurting myself in the process.
Tonight was also bath night. Meg and I are very good about never letting her out of our sight; we are in a perfect harmony of passing responsibility off to each other as we weave in and out of the bathroom doing other chores. It's graceful and elegant.
Suffice it to say, we're great parents and don't take our eyes off the kid while she's in the tub. What that doesn't do is stop Leanne from randomly deciding to bend straight forward, face-planting into the water. I try very hard at BJJ to be able to stretch like that. Leanne had no issue sitting on her butt and slamming her nose and mouth below the surface of the water.
About an hour earlier, I was at least confident that if she was choking on food, my new CPR knowledge would give me a fighting shot at expunging the offending article of food. What we didn't cover in CPR was what to do when your baby decides to headbutt the duck in the tub.
After another few hours of watching the poor child gasp and cough water out of nearly every orifice on her head, a red-nosed baby looked up at us and smiled. We finished the bath and I excused myself to make a very strong margarita. I then resolved myself to the bathroom to begin counting gray hairs.

After months spent living in China both teaching and tutoring English, I thought I could offer some advice to those prospective teachers out there that may be looking to teach English in China (or other locations) on how to go about the process, what to expect and some overall tips. There is no doubt that a huge boom of foreigners from all over the world are flocking to Asia to teach English. With the recent down turn in economies in so many parts of the world, many find the prospect of 'job availability' in foreign countries a very viable option, especially in a booming economy like China. Some of the other popular areas right now are South Korea and Vietnam. And by most popular, I'm referring to the areas that seem to have the most demand for English teaching jobs. Why is this? Well, if you look back on other areas such as Japan, Hong Kong, and Taiwan, these places have been in demand for more than 20 years and now have a good portion of their population that can now speak English or have stabilized a bit from the English teaching demand they once had. On the flip side, China, Vietnam and South Korea find themselves with a much more booming economy today than in years past and in order to not only compete in the world markets but to also offer business opportunities and growth to its people, they now have a much greater demand for English teachers.
Since I've only had experience teaching in China specifically (other than a very short period of volunteer work teaching in Laos), I decided to make the focus of this article solely on teaching English in China however, a lot of what is mentioned can be applied to teaching English in other countries as a foreigner.
So just how hard is it to find a job teaching English in China?
Well, I'll put it this way… When we had first arrived into China across the border from Hong Kong, within days we had found multiple interview opportunities at many different schools. If you're planning on doing the same, there is nothing wrong with going this route but it helps to either do a little planning before you get there or being patient once arrived in order to find the best teaching job available. But to answer the question, it is not at all difficult in finding a job, the difficulty lies in finding the one that either offers you the most flexibility, the highest pay, or the level and size of classes you want to teach. For those reasons, it's not advisable to just walk into any teaching job in China. If you are a native English speaker, you'll have plenty of opportunities out there and to those that aren't native speakers, there are still many options available.
What is better? Teaching English in China's largest cities, the smaller cities or rural areas?
The question here is more subjective than anything as there are pros and cons to each and it's really up to you on which you prefer. In the larger cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, etc. there will be plenty of teaching positions available and in you'll be in high demand. You can expect these larger cities with big business opportunities to pay more for English teachers than the smaller cities. Because the pay is higher, you'll also come to find out most other foreigners will want these positions as well so you can see 'some' competition but it'll mainly be for the top paying jobs. Other things to consider is the lifestyle you'll have. In largest cities, the expat community will much larger and as a result, the comforts of home may be found in more restaurant varieties, entertainment districts and plentiful shopping opportunities you may be accustomed to.
In the smaller cities, expect slightly less pay but still a great demand. Because there will be less foreigners applying for jobs, you'll have much less competition for any jobs posted and you'll find yourself more of a novelty here than you would be with the thousands of other foreigners in the larger cities. You also may have a greater sense of community in these smaller cities since the expat community will be much more tightly knit. Examples of these smaller cities would be Xian, Chengdu, Qingdao, Harbin, Kunming, etc. For those looking for a more unique experience outside of the mainstream of more populated areas, these smaller cities can offer a great fit.
And lastly, teaching English in China's rural areas offers you an experience like no other. In small towns you may be the ONLY one speaking English, so there's no doubt you'll be in high demand and in places like these, you can expect multiple job opportunities. Depending on the size of the village or town you may be in, it may just be you and few other foreigners. Should you be looking to really immerse yourself in the Chinese language of either Mandarin or Cantonese, this is probably the best way to go about it. If this is what you're looking for, in addition to the novelty of being one of the only foreigners in town, you may want to go this route. Just be aware the pay here will usually be less than that offered in the larger cities.
Does it matter if I have a TEFL?
It does help to have a TEFL certificate (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) and will afford you greater pay rate. The same goes for teaching experience. If you have either, you can expect to earn anywhere from 10% – 25% more from most schools and language centers. However, from my experience in South China, you can still get a job without either. The job may not be in the best school or one that offers the best pay, but it is still possible to secure a teaching job if you can speak fluent English. And from my experience, as long as you 'look the part' of a westerner, you may have an even easier time getting hired than the next person since some schools and language centers I've noticed, can discriminate based on appearance.
Do I need to speak Chinese in order to teach?
The quick answer is no… however, it can sometimes help depending on the level of English you're teaching. Basically, unless you're teaching complete newbies to English, there will already be a level of understanding and a basic English foundation which you'll be able to build on. I had taught students at all different English levels, from complete beginners that only knew how to say 'Hello' to those already fluent that wanted to grasp English phrases and slang or improve their level of English for use in business situations. On a side note, if you do find yourself teaching to complete beginners, some schools will have a Chinese assistant helping with any translations needed.
How do I choose an English teaching school?
When choosing a school, try to seek out some of its active teachers and talk to them about their experience there. Be inquisitive and find out who you'll be teaching, how often and how many 'non teaching' hours are involved. Some schools will offer a teaching course and materials for you to use while others will require you to plan out and prepare all teaching lessons.
You'll also want to determine how you will be paid and when. Most jobs only pay once a month, not every two weeks as you may be accustomed to in your home country. Plan to adjust your budget for this. And don't forget to have your teaching contract or something similar put in writing. Many places may try to hire you with no record at all of your employment there. Because of this and other reasons, working with an agency to help you find a position in these situations can sometimes be helpful as many will only work with the more reputable schools. One of the best and honest agencies I've come across is Find Work Abroad. Be wary of those agencies that try to charge you a 'fee' for finding you a teaching position or placing you with a school. Find Work Abroad does not do this and there are others that avoid this as well. The school should be the one to pay them the fee for your employment there, not you. Make sure you discuss this no matter which agency you choose to go with.
Should I teach or tutor?
This is entirely subjective so decide early on whether you prefer to teach large groups or just one or two students at a time. You may also consider tutoring as full-time work which is mostly what I did. It allows you the maximum flexibility with your time as you can fully control your work schedule as well as your pay rate. Many teachers find themselves tutoring part-time as well for additional income as most teaching positions only require 20-25 hours of teaching time. You will of course have to spend some non-teaching hours preparing for your lessons but still should have plenty of spare time left over each week. By picking up a few students to tutor each week, you can provide yourself a healthy side income. You'll also want to decide if you want to teach adults or children. If you have never taught before, there is a BIG difference between the two. I know because I've been there and quickly realized that one just wasn't for me:)
Should I have my school set up my living situation?
There are some pros and cons to this as well. When I arrived to China, I basically just rocked up into the city and found an apartment within a week while still sifting through all the job opportunities available. There's nothing wrong with this approach but just understand that navigating through China with the language barrier (assuming you don't speak Mandarin or Cantonese) can be a bit cumbersome! We did have a friend accompany us for a day while we stopped in to leasing agencies to find a place to rent, which was fine really but most places will want a signed 12 month lease. We negotiated a 3 month lease that would later go month to month because we weren't' yet ready to commit to living in China long-term at the time. However, there were some 6 month leases available though not too many. If having your school arrange your living situation for you, it can take the hassle out of the process and could even save you money on the rent if they aren't offering to pay it. Just keep in mind that the place you reside in as well as the neighborhood itself may not be as ideal as you want had you found your own place, especially if you prefer to live near fellow expats.
I realize I could go on and on with more things to consider, but I believe these questions cover the 'basics' of things you'll want to consider. At the end of the day, just ask yourself what you are hoping to achieve by teaching English in China…. A unique experience, the fulfillment of teaching, an ability to live and travel in a foreign country, an opportunity to save up money? All these things will help you gauge what direction to take and one of the best ways to make these decisions is by talking to fellow teaching travelers and expats in the areas you desire to go. Questions and comments welcome!

I think ODI generates the "/" character by default and I do not think we need to do any special processing to escape this character.
Based on error message, looks like you have given "C:\DirectoryNameHere\" as Directory in the Physical Schema. Lets say "SourceFiles" is your directory name where all you file will land and you want ODI to pick it from there, then Directory path is going to be "C:\DirectoryNameHere". When you run the job , ODI generates path like this : "C:\DirectoryNameHere/OTD.csv"

Thanks Keith. That worked.
I did originally use "C:\DirectoryNameHere" instead of "C:\DirectoryNameHere\" when working with an excel file but that didn't seem to work, telling me "MyFile.xlsx" doesn't exist. So, I switched to trying dynamic naming on a csv with C:\DirectoryNameHere\" instead.

LET'S TALK ABOUT MEN…..and Relationships
Are you feeling confused, frustrated or
hopeless in your relationship?
Do relationship "patterns" seem to show up
sooner or later with each new man?
Is there some hidden secret in relationship
you do not know about?
Do you really believe love is enough?
Relationships are a LIFE classroom.
Everything must change, including our beliefs about relating.
I have been working in the Human Potential Field for 40 years. During these years the greatest teachers are my students, clients and couples. I am going to share with you, what I have learned from hundred's of sessions with couples seeking to improve their relationships. You will NOT find this guidance in any book.
Relating is the key to life.
- 70 trillion cells in your body are relating to each other – whether you know it or not
- Your mind and heart are constantly relating and activating biochemical responses in your body, whether you know it or not
- Your energy, attitude and behavior is relating with everyone around you, and theirs with you, whether you know it or not
Balance is the key to relating.
Nature knows!!! Life is about balance. Your heart knows about balance and is a master guide in life choices that create inner and outer balance.
Your mind is trained to be "in reaction"…that is not balance, and this defies your heart's innate design to BE IN BALANCE!!!
In these two classes, we are going to create foundational measurements for you to use to discover "who's is in charge" – your mind or your heart?
When you know this, you can "course correct" your thinking, your choices, your behavior and actions and focus and obtain balance.
During our class, I will present information and then we will have a Q&A session as well.
Men are welcome to join this class.
The class has a maximum number so register now at:
Class One: Saturday, March 6 11:00 AM – 12:30 PM
Class Two: Saturday, March 13 11:00 AM – !2:30 PM
Tuition: $150
My gift to you at
This class is recorded so you can register and join in at your convenience, even if you are not on the live call. All registrants will receive an MP3 file for downloading the class information.
Class time based on PST:
If in doubt, check your local time zone.
When you are registered we will send you the Teleconference Number and the access code for the classes along with any other class details we want you to have.
I look forward to our time together.
Blessings to you,
Inspired by Deepak Chopra
My intent is taking a vow in every thought, word, and action; to lift one another to their highest place. However, and the best that I can.

Then she reached over the lane divider and flung her arms around the girl who had just beaten her out of sight.
It was a warm and gracious reaction to losing her women's 800m freestyle Olympic title.
But perhaps in the 15-year-old Katie Ledecky, Adlington saw a glimpse of her former self.
Four years ago in Beijing, Adlington was the new kid sweeping all before her. She won two golds in the 400m freestyle and in her favourite event, the 800m freestyle.
But now she was the favourite, the world record-holder, the established star. And the kid in the next lane had just shot her down.
Ledecky, the youngest member of the US swimming team, had established an early lead. As Adlington concentrated on her battle with Lotte Friis, the Denmark swimmer who was supposed to pose the biggest threat to her crown Ledecky streaked clear.
The 23-year-old Briton can usually wear her opponents down over 800m and rein them in. But the expectant Aquatic Centre waited for a charge that never came.
Instead of fading, Ledecky just got stronger and stronger and began to extend her lead. Adlington never got close. And as Adlington's challenge faded, she was overtaken by Spain's Mirela Belmonte Garcia.
In the end, Adlington finished more than six seconds shy of Ledecky's winning time.
She found consolation in a second bronze medal to go with the one she gained in the 400m on Sunday night. And in the fact Ledecky just failed to beat the Brit's own world record.
Adlington said: "I am not disappointed. Everybody expected me to get a gold medal. I've been in four Olympic finals and got four medals so that is nothing to be ashamed of."
The way the emotion poured out of her as the fans roared their support you wonder how much longer she will put herself through the punishing training required. In the end the expectation at the London Games proved too much for her.
Inevitably, the tears flowed, perhaps as much for the fact that with girls like Ledecky around, her favourite event will never be quite the same again.
She said: "People say, 'Yeah, you're young' but I'm not 16 or 17. I can't recover as quick. That's what's happening.
"The younger guys don't need recovery. They just go and go and go. We have got to the point where everyone is doing 10 sessions and it helps being young and being able to recover so quick. I can't do that any more. I'm getting old."

Investors are rushing to liquidate their holdings of risky assets, but where are the havens?
With U.S. Treasuries now yielding rates lower than inflation, investors seeking the best safety available are now essentially paying the U.S. government to take their money.
That's why a number of other asset classes are soaring these days. Gold hit a new high on Thursday, topping $1,820 (U.S.) an ounce, as both retail investors and governments around the world continued to bulk up on bullion.
Central banks purchased 69.4 tonnes of gold in the second quarter alone, which was more than four times the amount they bought in the same period a year earlier, according to the World Gold Council. Exchange-traded funds (ETFs), which several years ago opened the door for retail investors to trade in precious metals, purchased 51.7 tonnes of gold between April and June, significantly above the quarterly average of 41.4 tonnes of the previous three years, the council said.
A select group of foreign currencies have also won haven status among investors lately. In Switzerland, the government has intervened to try to force its currency down to a more reasonable level after the Swiss franc rose 13 per cent this year. The move briefly halted the rise, but on Thursday the Swiss franc continued to rack up gains against most other major currencies, including the U.S. dollar and the euro.
A handful of ETFs now make it easier for retail investors to play currencies, from the New Zealand dollar to the Brazilian real and the Chinese yuan. Currencies are often viewed as speculative investments because they are not productive assets like stocks, which represent the production of goods and services. Also, in a currency trade, one person's gain is another person's loss.
But Michael Rawson, an ETF analyst with Morningstar Inc., says a diversified portfolio of currencies actually has a quite low volatility and has a legitimate place in investment strategies.
"In this time of elevated macroeconomic risks, currencies should be viewed as a diversifier and as a low-risk asset," he says.
Among currency ETFs trading on the New York Stock Exchange, there are several different structures. Rydex Specialized Products LLC's CurrencyShares ETFs purchase foreign currencies and hold them in a bank account. On the other hand, Invesco PowerShares Capital Management LLC's ETFs track futures indexes using derivatives.
Both are legitimate approaches, Mr. Rawson says. The most appealing products are those that hold a diversified basket of currencies because they have less volatility than single-currency ETFs, he adds. WisdomTree Funds, for example, offers an ETF of emerging market currencies. The WisdomTree Dreyfus Emerging Currency ETFfund has a 0.55 per cent expense ratio and has returned 7.2 per cent over the past 12 months.
Many investment professionals say one of the best havens at the moment is cash.
"Cash is not trash. It's an option on the ability to buy after this correction plays out," says Danielle Park, president and portfolio manager at Venable Park Investment Counsel Inc.
"We still think high-quality bonds, U.S. T-bills and cash are the right place to be at this time. That allows us to avoid the ongoing bear market in stocks and commodities. It also gives us liquidity to step in and start buying when every one else is panic selling," she says.
That buying opportunity could come in the next few months, she adds.
Ms. Park is cautious about gold at the moment. She says the Canadian dollar tends to lead gold downwards during price declines. The loonie has lost about 5 cents (U.S.) during the past month.
"We are thinking gold will very likely correct with other risk assets, if our thesis is confirmed that we are now entering into the next recession in the global economy," she says.
"Keep it simple," advises Adrian Mastracci, president of KCM Wealth Management Inc. "This market is one or two data releases away from the toilet, or from a rock and roll rally again."
In these tenuous times, he favours a basket of GICs, corporate bonds and dividend-paying stocks as a means to cut volatility.

Chief Keef has been absent from mainstream media for some time, following a pretty successful run in 2012 and 2013. Since then, he's run into issues both personally and professionally, and a lot of mainstream outlets have distanced themselves from the Chicago rapper.
RELATED: Chief Keef's Label Is Suing His Associates For $4 Million
In a new Instagram video, Keef angrily called out BET:
"Man f*ck BET awards. Ima let y'all know right now if we go to the BET awards, chains getting took, b*tches gettin' f*cked, babymommas gettin' f*cked."
The awards go down in Atlanta this weekend, and at first, many weren't sure where the anger came from. However, a comment from Bow Wow made it all clear. The former BET host confirmed that the network had banned Keef a while back, despite his alleged pleas to the contrary.

'Knee-Jerk' Siddharth pitched against Midnight's Children's hero's (long) noseFollow us on Social Media
Follow @iamdesirulez
Tweet #iamdesirulez
It was a battle between the Nose and the Knee on location for Midnights Children in Sri Lanka. Apparently Satya Bhabha, who plays the hero with the long nose and Tamil superstar Siddharth Narayan, who is cast as Satyas foster-parents abandoned child who grows up hating his life in the slums, both had a pitched battle going on. While Satyas character has an extra-long nose (which came naturally to him since hes a Parsi) Siddharths character Shiva has extra-bulky knees with which he tries to subjugate Satya.
Though its Satya Bhabha who occupies centre stage in Deepa Mehtas Midnights Children apparently it the Rang De Basanti actor Siddharth who has made a very strong impact.
A member of the team on condition of anonymity said, Among the male members of the cast, and that includes brilliant performers like Anupam Kher, Ronit Roy,Vinay Pathak and Rahul Bose, Siddharth is the clear stand-out performer. Satya, a relative newcomer to cinema had many tough confrontation scenes with Siddharth whos virtually a veteran of Tamil, Telugu and Hindi cinema.
So did Saleem and Shiva the two rival characters from Midnights Children , who are like Shashi Kapoor( the long nose and all) and Amitabh Bachchan in Yash Chopras Trishul, actually end up hating each in real too?
Incidentally the same source from the Midnights Children team tells us that among the female actors Shriya Saran emerged the most powerful. This, with Shabana Azmi, Seema Biswas and Shahana Goswami in the cast, is saying a lot.
When asked about Siddharth and Shriya stealing the show Deepa Mehta laughed, I love all my actors. But yes, these two are brilliant. Absolutely brilliant.

Tips and Tricks to Be Stylish Throughout Your Pregnancy
Turn nine months of potential frump into mega maternity moxie. Amy Tara Koch offers easy ways for moms-to-be pop out of the preggo pits and pull together dozens of jaw-dropping maternity ensembles—without breaking the bank. This timeless style manifesto features sketches from today's most popular fashion designers, including Nicole Miller, Diane von Furstenberg, Donna Karan, and Issac Mizrahi, as well as tips and tricks from Koch and her "A-list"—a roster of fashion editors, beauty gurus, and celebrity stylists. Bump it Up author Amy Tara Koch will have you putting on glitz throughout your pregnancy and beyond.
I wholeheartedly believe that spa treatments make the absolute best gifts ever–I have yet to meet one person who isn't over-the-moon ecstatic to receive a gift certificate for a massage or facial. And this especially applies to pregnant women (not that I know a lot of pregnant women … yet).
Coinciding with the launch of super-stylish authorAmy Tara Koch's Bump It Up: Transform Your Pregnancy into the Ultimate Style Statement, the amazingly luxurious ESPA Spa at the Peninsula New York is debuting its Bump It Up Bliss at the Peninsula Spa: The Ultimate Pre-natal Pampering Package. You should book it for yourself if you're expecting (no-brainer), but also, as I mentioned, this is the perfect gift. The recipient will love you forever. Maybe too much.
This week I had the pleasure of attending a lovely, poolside luncheon at the Peninsula Spa to celebrate the debut of "Bump it Up Bliss at The Peninsula Spa: The Ultimate Prenatal Pampering Package." This luxurious and decadent new spa package was created based on style expert and mother of two, Amy Tara Koch's, book "Bump It Up: Transforming Your Pregnancy into the Ultimate Statement."
At the event various social media influencers enjoyed energizing hand and shoulder massages, while feasting on organic "preggo-tinis" and other delicious, cravings- based munchies. Guests in attendance were either expectant moms or new mommies! It was a really delightful, fun-filled event, wrought with pampering, girl talk, and celebration of motherhood.
During the event author Amy Tara Koch reminded us that, once baby arrives, many people's focus will shift from you as an expectant mom to your adorable newborn baby. All of the attention and doting that was lavished upon you may very well end! The "Bump it Up Bliss" package allows you to indulge in the wellness lifestyle before the hard work of motherhood begins. Explains Amy Koch, "Pregnancy is tough work, and women deserve a massive dose of self-indulgence."
While this spa package was originally designed for expectant moms, we were informed that it's also fantastic for new moms as it allows you to destress and for a brief time escape and enjoy a few moments of luxury and solace. I can attest to the validity of that statement. *smile*
The Bump It Up Bliss Pre-natal Package features three 60-minute Maternity Massages, three 30-minute Pre-natal Personal Training sessions, cravings-based snacks and a copy of Koch's pregnancy style bible, "Bump It Up." While receiving your spa services you're also welcome to enjoy the spa swimming pool, fitness center, and all yoga and core classes. The package is designed to be enjoyed over the course of the three trimesters of pregnancy.
Amy Koch's "Bump It Up: Transforming Your Pregnancy into the Ultimate Statement" is a fun and witty pregnancy manual that offers easy ways for moms-to-be to avoid the frump and pull together dozens of affordable, fashionable maternity ensembles. "Bump It Up" features sketches from noted fashion designers Nicole Miller, Diane von Furstenberg, Donna Karan, and Isaac Mizrahi, as well as tips and tricks from Koch and a roster of fashion editors, beauty gurus, and celebrity stylists. Packed full of clever quizzes, skin care secrets, and a handy glossary of terms that every pregnant woman needs to know, it's a "must-have" for the pregnant fashionista.
So busy taking care of everyone else we often forget to treat ourselves. "Bump it Up Bliss" at the Peninsula Spa will allow you to experience the physical and psychological benefits of spa wellness. Visit the Peninsula Spa in the heart of midtown Manhattan and experience your own voyage of indulgence, self-discovery, and renewal. Thank you to Amy Tara Koch and The Peninsula Spa for hosting a relaxing and beautiful celebration of motherhood.
I had the pleasure of dropping in to work with the gorgeous Heather Nauert of GOOD DAY NEW YORK. Heather, who is 8 months pregnant with #2, loved the tips and tricks on how to bump up basics with layering pieces and statement making accessories. We featured best bets from Heidi Klum's new collection for Destination Maternity, boots by Charlotte Russe, jewelry by Kara Ross and Henry Beguelin, DKNY knits and thin gold belts from H&M.
Had a blast yesterday at the launch of the Bump it up Bliss package that I created for THE PENINSULA NYC. Sipping preggo-tinis by Manhattan's most glorious indoor pool, a group of mom bloggers and editors talked fashion, beauty and got a little relaxation time with head and shoulder massages. The package features 2 massages, 3 pre-natal fitness classes, snacks by the pool and a copy of BUMP IT UP. Visit http://ow.ly/2TMWR for more information
I am so honored to be named one of the 20 most influential pregnancy experts! Style is a major element to looking and feeling great during pregnancy and BUMP IT UP gives women the tools to do so. Without breaking the bank!

Tax adviser to revenue minister attended KPMG-sponsored Madrid conference, parties
A Liberal government appointee named to crack down on offshore tax avoidance in the wake of the KPMG scandal attended a Madrid conference and social events where the embattled accounting firm was a top financial sponsor, a Fifth Estate/Enquête investigation has found.
Western University law professor Colin Campbell was appointed by the Liberal government in the spring of 2016 to head an "independent" review of offshore tax schemes following revelations that accounting giant KPMG had run a massive tax dodge for multimillionaire Canadians in the Isle of Man.
In late September 2016, Campbell travelled to Spain to attend a tax conference — with KPMG as the top "diamond" sponsor. At the event, delegates were treated to evenings of cocktails, flamenco dancing and Spanish cuisine.
"This is just another example of the Liberal government being too close to KPMG and to the accounting industry overall," says Duff Conacher of Democracy Watch, an Ottawa-based watchdog group.
The Madrid trip revelations follow the resignations in October 2016 of two members of Campbell's offshore panel, after one raised concerns the committee was not arms-length from the Canada Revenue Agency — the agency whose policies it was supposed to examine.
- Trudeau violated conflict guidelines amid KPMG probe, ethics advocacy group says
- Trudeau vows to do 'better job' with tax avoiders
In her letter of resignation dated Oct. 4, 2016, obtained by The Fifth Estate and Enquête, Sherbrooke University professor Marie-Pierre Allard wrote directly to Revenue Minister Diane Lebouthillier. She told the minister that the offshore compliance advisory committee "cannot be regarded as independent" and that there was only "superficial discussion" of issues.
The offshore committee was not permitted to probe the KPMG affair.
When asked about the optics of attending a conference where KPMG was a top sponsor, Campbell said he was unaware of the accounting firm's financial relationship with the event organizers.
"I have no knowledge of what KPMG's involvement was," he said. "There was a lot of advertising."
- If you have tips on this story please email email@example.com or phone Harvey Cashore at 416-526-4704
Video recorded by CBC's The Fifth Estate shows KPMG's advertisements throughout the Madrid conference, including signage close to where Campbell and other delegates were provided hors d'oeuvres and refreshments.
"Never have tax leaders faced a more challenging time," KPMG advertised. "Your tax business is now everyone's business."
'Diamond' sponsors
Several other Canadian tax professors attended the Madrid conference, as well as judges from the Tax Court of Canada and the Federal Court of Appeal.
Justice Randall Bocock eventually recused himself from a KPMG-related tax court case after The Fifth Estate and Enquête reported in March that the judge had attended a private party in Madrid hosted by a law firm linked to the KPMG affair.
Documents show KPMG and accounting giant PwC each paid 65,000 euros — or $98,000 Cdn — to be the top "diamond" sponsors of the conference. Other sponsors included major tax law and accounting firms, many with offshore operations in places like Gibraltar, Malta and the British Virgin Islands.
The International Fiscal Association, the tax industry group that ran the conference, promised on its website that the paid sponsors would receive "tremendous brand recognition and opportunity to leverage their marketing initiatives."
Organizers of the conference told The Fifth Estate that the social events, alcohol and entertainment venues were paid for by delegates' fees and the paid sponsorships.
The conference was attended by global tax accounting firms as well as regulators from dozens of countries. Its brochures promised delegates "an abundance of leisure activities" and "social events."
- KPMG offshore tax dodge a 'facade' designed to hide money, ex-client says
- Wealthy Canadians exposed in KPMG offshore tax 'sham'
Video footage shows Campbell attending a "cultural evening" at the Plaza de Toros, including flamenco dancers, music, cocktails and local cuisine.
Campbell told CBC News he attended only the social events that were part of the official conference program.
Prem Sikka, emeritus professor of accounting at the University of Essex in the United Kingdom, says there's a reason firms like KPMG sponsor these kinds of conferences and social events.
'No such thing as a free lunch'
"There is no such thing as a free lunch and a drink from these people," said Sikka.
"This is a part of their business strategy, simply expanding their influence," he said. "Before you know, someone is trying to talk you into something."
Democracy Watch's Duff Conacher says government advisers must avoid even the appearance of conflict.
"[They] are not allowed to accept any gift that has the appearance that it's been given to influence them," he said.
In an email to The Fifth Estate, the CRA said its employee policy governing outside hospitality does not apply to Campbell as he is considered a volunteer.
The revenue agency added that its appointees to the offshore compliance advisory committee "are expected to act honestly, in good faith and only in public interest."
Campbell attended the week-long conference after being asked to chair a panel discussion on the taxation of criminal activities. A senior KPMG official was part of that panel discussion in Madrid.
- Canada Revenue offered amnesty to wealthy KPMG clients in offshore tax 'sham'
- Secret tax deal for wealthy KPMG clients sparked anger inside CRA
In Canada, two members of Campbell's offshore compliance advisory committee resigned in October 2016 — after raising concerns that it was not arms-length from the CRA.
Tax professor Allard from Sherbrooke University and retired tax accountant Allan Lanthier both resigned before the committee had issued its first report.
Raising concerns
The Fifth Estate has also learned the KPMG tax dodge and the agency's decision to offer KPMG clients a "no penalties" amnesty were off limits for the committee.
Allard raised concerns that senior CRA officials, together with Campbell, set the committee's agenda.
"What is expected of the members of the committee is that they approve, after superficial discussion, many of the recommendations decided by the chair in agreement with the leaders of the CRA," Allard wrote.
Campbell told CBC News that investigating the KPMG scandal was not part of the mandate of the offshore compliance advisory committee. He said the terms of reference did not allow the committee to look at "individual taxpayer matters" such as the KPMG scandal.
Campbell also told Allard in an email dated Sept. 6, that the committee was "never intended to function as an independent inquiry." Several government media releases refer to the committee as an "independent" panel of experts.
For her part, Allard told the minister she no longer believed the committee would be effective in helping to crack down on offshore tax evasion.
"I heard your sincere desire that this committee be able to make a fundamental change in the practices of the CRA and make a real difference. That's what I wanted," Allard wrote. "I regret to say that I do not think that will be the case."
In an email to The Fifth Estate, the CRA said it was "natural" for members of a committee like this to come and go.
The offshore compliance advisory committee made its first recommendations last fall and continues to meet.

Shut your eyes and listen to Tom Petty and band
By Keith Thomas
Winnipeg Free Press — July 7, 1985
Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers | Make It Better (Forget About Me)
Man, is this clip stupid. No wonder people complain about the effects of rock music on a person's hearing. Petty and the boys are supposed to be playing in some woman's year in this chilish effort. She even flushes Petty out with an oversize Q-Tip. Gross! It's really a shame this clip is so bad because the song is great. Petty's Southern growl and the harmonies are fabulous. The Heartbreakers and the horn section are heavenly. Mike Campbell's ringing guitar is explosive. I must admit, I did like the scene with the guitars falling from the sky — make that her head. I'm just sorry the video stinks because the song certainly doesn't. Buy the record and forget the video. Oh, yeah, better check your ears. You never know who might be filming a video in there.
