I'm unable to donate blood myself due to needle phobia and a couple of other reasons, so I asked a friend to share her experience of recently giving blood. Hopefully her experience will answer any questions some of you may have about donating yourselves.
with thanks to Ms. N. F. Hetherington
got to the session early and there was already a queue outside, people
kept telling me not to be nervous which I found quite silly as, although
I know people who have a fear of needles, I've never understood it
myself. When they started letting people
in and it got to my turn the man at the desk just looked up
expectantly. "Do I just give you my name?"
"Do you have an appointment?"
He replied. The conversation then went that I'd been to a session before
but that they hadn't allowed me to donate at that time and that I'd been
sent a form to fill in with my donor number on it but forgotten to
bring it. I was given a new form and told to fill it in and bring it
back to another desk and have a large cold drink before donating. I sat
down and realised I didn't know where to get a drink from and everyone
was too busy to ask. I filled my form in and took it back and the woman [staff/ nurse]
found me on the system, took my form off me and gave me a booklet to
read before donating. I found where the water was and read through the
booklet which told me that I had to drink at least 500mls of fluid and
that is they'd test my iron levels before donating (never an issue for
me as even when pregnant I was always told how good my iron and B12
levels were but I was nervous all the same - hate the idea of ignorant
people attributing bad levels to a plant-based diet). It wasn't long
before she'd called on me and went through my form, I had to go through
why I couldn't donate last time and she told me that I shouldn't have to
mention it again. As I'd had a tattoo in the last 12 months I was asked
the exact date and she [staff/ nurse] went to check if this was ok. Upon returning she
said it was fine they'd just have to run an extra test on it.Then came
the finger prick, she asked for my hand wiped my finger and pricked it
and released a drop of blood into a plastic tube of blue liquid and
watched it sink. I asked if that was good and she said the fact that it
sunk meant I had good iron levels. I genuinely said, "Well that's good
because I'm a vegan." I'm pretty sure it was verbal diarrhoea attributed
to nerves. She then told me to take a seat round a table and wait to be
called. I was called up asked if I was right handed (I'm not) so was
lead to one of the big plastic moulded with all the equipment on the
right hand side. She reclined the seat and proceeded to search for a vein
in my right arm. After a few unsuccessful attempts it was decided that
my left would be better. She [a nurse] found a vein and cleaned the spot on my arm
and inserted the needle and it was all hooked up to what I can only
describe as a reverse infusion pump. I was given a small tube to
"twiddle" and she said clenching and unclenching my bum constantly would
help my blood flow. She checked I was ok and left me to it. I sat there
for around ten minutes and the machine started beeping notifying the
staff that I was 'done'. The same woman who hooked me up was available
so she came to unattach everything and asked again if I was ok I
reported numbness in my fingers and was assured that that was normal.
She sat my seat up and told me to sit for a couple of minutes, sorted
everything out and directed me to where I should have biscuits and a
drink. Offered a choice of drinks I opted water and got my own Jammie
Dodgers out of my bag, she told me that I hadn't had to bring my own and
I said that I would rather have done so as I don't eat dairy etc. She
said they had other options but I didn't read any packets so I don't
know what they had. After a brief chat with the friend I'd come with we
left to go home."

Earlier this week we received an email from World Learning (the organization through which Princeton has a program in both Serbia and Ghana) which was sent to all participants in their study abroad-type programs. All other participants, however, were on semester-based programs so the email provided support as we integrate back into American living. The lovely workers also suggested that we enjoy being "home for the holidays" further proving that our program is unique as we are the only to which this fortunately and unfortunately isn't applicable.
Though it isn't the most appreciated in my inbox, the email probed me to thoughtfully reflect on my walk home from work. When I got home I flipped through the first dozen or so entries in my journal and many of my initial observations surprised me since in the past four months Serbian living has become instinctual. My Hawaii/American frame of reference is certainly still existing, but now Serbia has its own frame which muddles the other two. My fourth entry I merely listed a few dozen differences and since I hadn't referenced this since it was written I realized how nearly all of these differences have become so familiar that it's very bizarre to imagine myself ever being perplexed by them.
For instance it is customary to wear 'slippers' or papuce inside the house at all times. My host mom would bring my slippers to my side when I forgot them my first few weeks here. A couple of days ago I found myself alone in the apartment which is very rare as there's always a happy clamor of family and friends -- unannounced but always welcome visitors knock on the door weekly. I stood up to get a glass of water and I seriously felt a chill run through my body as I stepped onto the tiled kitchen floor without my blessed papuce. Barefoot indoors (and often outdoors) for eighteen years and it took less than four months for the concept of unrobed toes to seem a quandary. Now I'll admit the change in climate might warrant more conservative dress but this reverse is hardly unique. Whether it's the custom of never walking out of the apartment with wet hair, the windows that open two directions, or eating bread at every meal, Serbia's culture has blended into my thought's fabric and it will be interesting in five months to become, as the email stated, "reacquainted with America".

Customer Reviews
All reviews are from people who have redeemed deals with this merchant.
What You'll Get
A face is like a pot of pudding: it's more appealing when you remove the thin layer of skin on top or bury it in the middle of a pie. Get a creamy complexion with today's Groupon for microdermabrasion treatments at Skin Chic Spa in Aurora. Choose between the following options:
- For $45, you get one microdermabrasion treatment (a $90 value).
- For $112, you get three microdermabrasion treatments (a $255 value).<p>
At Skin Chic Spa, aestheticians mine for sparkly new complexions during the Diamonds Baby! microdermabrasion treatment. Wielding a diamond-tip wand, nimble hands navigate congested complexions for up to one hour, loosening dry and dull cells as a mild suction vacuum follows behind to collect them. The stimulation of the skin awakens cell turnover and collagen production, which, like laundering a worn-out rainbow, can make it appear tighter and brighter. Treatments can also relieve well-traveled skin of its less-savory souvenirs, including fine lines, acne scars, sun damage, and pores enlarged to hide birthday gifts.
The Fine Print

About Elite Esthetics
The aestheticians at Elite Esthetics focus all their treatments on pampering the body's biggest organ. Their basic facials complement the service menu's advanced facials, which rely on technology such as LED light, ultrasound waves, and microcurrents to minimize signs of aging and hide hyperpigmentation. Dr. Randa Sawan stops by to administer injections and conduct laser hair removal, and other staffers see to waxing and slimming wraps.

The first Saturday of December, 1971 Kent Odor made his second appearance at the Jesus House. At that point we had no way of knowing that the following fall, Kent would join the staff, nor that he, Chris Adams and I would embark on our career as adamsfishyodor, nor that Kent would become a life-long friend.
Kent and I met in the library at Cincinnati Bible Seminary (now Cincinnati Christian University). Kent was interested in the Jesus House because he was a singer/guitar player who, while in high school, traveled throughout Michigan singing for churches, camps and youth groups. Kent was also a PK (preacher's kid) whose family had deep roots in the christian church/church of christ restoration movement.
In those days Kent played a little nylon string acoustic guitar that, given its small size, had a surprisingly deep, booming sound. His voice had incredible range as he could sing very low but also had a strong falseto. adamsfishyodor never really used his vocal talents, primarily because of my inability to sing harmony, but hopefully he gained other valuable experiences.
Kent joined the Jesus House Staff in the fall of 1972 and remained until fall of 1975 when he and Marcia married. His impact on the Jesus House was profound. He introduced us to the concept of small groups and created the first Jesus House small group in the summer of 1974 by teaching the book, Body Life, written by Ray Steadman. Kent is also responsible for demanding that we include personal quiet times at our Conglomerate retreats. In addition, Kent created Family Nights on Wednesday evenings. No one knew what was planned week to week at Family Night because Kent had so many ideas and never told us in advance what to expect. Family Nights introduced us to making donuts, tie dying t-shirts, making bagels, painting the pipes in the basement, and many other activities that I no longer remember. Kent recognized the importance of creating social opportunities for people to interact with one another. His drive for social networking was evident whenever adamsfishyodor headed out for concerts and found we had 2-3 additional carloads of people invited by Kent.
Since his years with the Jesus House, Kent has served a variety of churches: Fellowship Christian Church, First Christian (St. Louis, Michigan), East 91st Street Christian Church (Indianapolis), Willow Creek Community Church, Canyon Ridge Christian Church (Las Vegas) and now the Springdale Vineyard (aka the Mothership) in Cincinnati.
Kent has grown into an extremely wise leader with an unlimited capacity to understand ministry.
He and Marcia have four children and one grand child.
Yes, Kent will be at the next reunion concert, May 2, 2009. You will have the opportunity to hear his great singing voice on the Jesus House Recording Project.

1972 - Linda Page
1973 - Jim Bankowski (with special guest Mike Wilshire)

A Life-Changing Experience
You will notice that Jim Bankowski performed the first Saturday of December in 1973. During the second set that night, Jim, along with his musical guest Mike Wilshire, led us in a medley of Christmas carols. That was the first time I consciously realised the spiritual impact of all those songs about Christmas. I had a life-changing worship experience as the beauty and truth of each of those songs became clear. I have always been grateful to Jim & Mike for that experience which continues to shape my appreciation of Christmas.

Shibanxi Holiday 2011 - They think it's all over...
Click here for the main Shibanxi Holiday 2011 page.
"They think it's all over... It is now."
The late Kenneth Wolstenholme uttered these memorable words while commentating near the end of the 1966 World Cup Final as Geoff Hurst piled in England's 4th goal while spectators poured onto the pitch. Unlike most of the population of the UK, I never heard the words live, I was one of the lucky 100,000 packed into Wembley Stadium; I recall that my ticket on the black market cost me a week's wages. As far as Shibanxi is concerned, I would rather say "It is for now."
Suggestions that this place might either have been spoiled already or is likely to be spoiled by the new road, are in my opinion wide of the mark. With our regular extended annual visits, Yuehong and I are something of an institution these days. "Are you leaving so soon?" came across more than once on our final day, our guest house lady at the Tianya gave us a whole duck for our journey and Pop at the restaurant donated our breakfast steam buns and a bag of tea from the Mountain King Shrine area in the hills south of Bagou. Sod's law dictated that we saw our first view of the sun for 8 days although as it happened it barely lasted long enough for me to snap some scenes in Bagou which show that the heart of the place has not changed in the 7 years we have been coming here together.
The stage was nearing the end of its restoration, these days the Maoist trappings are very definitely 'tongue in cheek':
Breakfast was over, there was plenty of time before our train so I bashed the market shooting off what would once have been several rolls of expensive slide film. The people here are totally relaxed as long as you use a 'happy snapper'. I'd love to upload these in higher resolution but I can't afford the bandwidth:
First up - eggs, fruit and two lots of tafu.
Bamboo, general vegetables, chilis and if you don't recognise the meat, look at the top...
Something fishy, three old ladies who took breakfast everyday together, Pop's famous steam buns and Pop himself...
Finally a couple of cameo shots including a Hitchcock reference...
We relaxed up at the station until a coal train was announced and I ambled down towards the bath house:
The photo opportunities were not yet exhausted even though the light had died: It was not the only thing that had passed its best by date, my 'Made in China' belt had disintegrated, but I didn't have far to walk:
Two ladies with very different priorities... A rare chance to get the washing dried and some extra passengers for our train down.
Some Bagou people are photo shy, others are delighted to smile first time for the camera... Nearby was bamboo out drying in the warm weather:
I don't know how old the gentleman is, but the lady talking to Yuehong is a sprightly 80, five years ago she loaned us a flat after we fell out with the notorious Bagou granny. Needless to say, she absolutely refused payment for it.
All we had to do now was get our suitcase on the train and chill out - not forgetting to wave to Wilson Lythgoe high above the 'tourist curve' near Jiaoba. As we rounded Caiziba curve, Yuehong decided to prove she could do it better than me again:
At Mifeng, the coal train had been held for a charter train (of tourist empties) for a film crew who had been playing in the rain with the loaded version in Bagou and Huangcun the previous day to judge from the extended whistling we heard. They were obviously enjoying every moment of their visit, just before we left they dragged themselves to the station throat to film our departure and demanded extra whistling. Unfortunately for them one lady turned up late for the train and it ground to a halt right in front of them, then some strange foreigner leaned wide out of the window with his camera in front of his face as the train went past. At least the local children were showing some interest in what was going on.
"They think it's all over... It is now."
We're back in Beijing now, Yuehong has collected her passport with her UK Settlement Visa and after seven long years of 'exile', we are 'going home' for good.
Rob and Yuehong Dickinson

Guiding, Growing, and Going
Guiding, Growing, and Going
What is a Church Plant?
It is a church that is "planted" in a community to glorify God through guiding people into a personal relationship with Jesus. While some churches sprout up spontaneously, most are intentionally planted. Out Of Love Ministries intends to plant a church in the Northeast Atlanta, GA area near Mercer University.
What is Pre-launch?
Before a church has official members, a leadership team, and is known publicly within a community, it must first be "planted." The "planting" process is considered to be in the "pre-launch" phase until the decision to start hosting weekly public worship services is made. During the pre-launch phase, special attention is given to getting to know the community in which the church in being planted. Also, special focus is given to gathering a team of people who are interested in joining the church plant.
Can I still Attend?
Anyone and everyone is both welcome and invited to come and attend during the pre-launch phase. In fact, we encouraged you to! During our pre-launch phase, we will be hosting the following initiatives: weekly Bible study on Tuesday from 7pm-8pm, several "Come and See" events designed to inform the community about the vision of Out Of Love Ministries and how they can become connected to what God is doing through the ministry in the community, and representing the love, compassion, and kindness of Jesus through performing acts of kindness (AOK's) that blesses people in practical ways. A healthy church plant waits until it has a critical mass of people before it moves from pre-launch to the public launch phase.
As an attendee, you have no obligation or responsibilities. We simply extend the invitation for you to come and join us for fellowship and Bible study on Tuesdays and to participate in as many A.O.K.'s as you feel led to. Come enjoy the spiritual food, fellowship, and community outreach as we journey towards planting an official church in the city of Chamblee.
Can I do more to help?
You sure can! You can become an official part of the launch team. You can take on responsibilities, you can serve in various capacities, and use your gifts and talents to help in the pre-launch process. If you'd like to join our launch team or discover more about the vision for Out Of Love Ministries, Pastor Foster would be delighted to speak with you. Please fill out the form below and we will be sure to get in contact with you.

AFTER weeks of speculation, Ford has finally quashed rumours that it will sell Jaguar.
The troubled US multi-national owns a string of prestigious brands in Warwickshire and the West Midlands, including Land Rover, Jaguar and Aston Martin.
Aston Martin, the profitable luxury car manufacturer based at Gaydon in Warwickshire, has been linked with a number of possible buyers.
But Jaguar, which has a research and development plant at Whitley, Coventry, is not for sale, it has been confirmed.
A restructuring packaged was announced as Ford attempts to put itself back in the black.
Hit by falling sales in the US, it is estimated that the company could make a loss of £4.8 billion this year.
Over the weekend, the firm announced its third restructuring plan in five years, and has slashed an extra 10,000 white-collar-jobs in America and speeded up its plan to cut 30,000 factory workers.
Ford now wants to eliminate 40 per cent of its factory workforce by 2008, instead of the previous 2012 target.
The company said the job cuts, along with the closure of 12 plants, would return it to profitability by 2009.
Bill Ford, chairman of the firm founded by his great grandfather Henry Ford, said: "These actions have painful consequences for communities and many of our loyal employees.
"But rapid shifts in consumer demand that affect our product mix, and continued high prices for commodities, mean we must continue working quickly and decisively to fix our business."
But the financial markets have reacted negatively to the restructuring package, Ford Motor's share price plummeted by 12 per cent after the announcement.
Ford has been hit by plunging sales in truck and sports utility vehicle markets in the States, and now only has a 16 per cent of the US market, in comparison with 25 per cent in the mid-1990s.

My dad and step mom got me a new Xbox for Xmas.They got me a bunch of games for and i will recommend the Xbox for people. But the Xbox is also bad if you have bad internet because it will be very slow on loading games. But if you have good internet it will work like a dream.
when i was a kid me and my cousins always went fishing but when they left me and my family rarely go fishing. But when my dad takes me fishing i always catch a bass or two.
I like hunting my dad and me always go deer hunting when it comes to season. I recommend deer hunting for people that have stress re leaver. I usually go to the woods by my house and get a good sized deer or two.
sea world is a cool place for me because my parents,sis,and i go there every year. We go to the one in Florida and while were there we go to the beach to. But my favorite part about going to sea world is the killer whale show.But my lil sis loves the sea lion and otter show the best.

Automated personalization: It sounds like an oxymoron. The sleek precision of automated systems might seem like the farthest thing from the warm and fuzzy process of making customers feel cozy, but if you have more than a handful of buyers, you need machine-like efficiency to create a personalized user experience. Database services that help you get to know your prospects better, cater to their needs, and deliver the kind of buyer-directed personal service they now demand are the standard of service.
Look to the Big Players
To understand how important understanding your buyers' needs is, you only have to look at how successful the digital giants have become. When you go to Amazon and search for a product, you get pages of offers arranged the way you want to see them, complete with suggestions of related items and images of what other shoppers bought. If you're a frequent customer, you can also see past searches so you never miss out on a purchase.
B2B businesses have a smaller menu of products and services, but the idea of using data to personalize and customize a user experience is the same. When you know your audience well, you're able to anticipate their needs and make each one feel as though you're there just for them.
Amazon, Google, and other sites that learn about visitors so they can deliver more personalized experiences rely on big data to make their predictions. Your marketing database uses the same principles to deliver custom recommendations based on lead behaviors. Prospects who are shopping for office desks, for example, might also be interested in chairs or filing cabinets, so these products might be featured at the bottom of the page.
Over time, the data you and your database manager collect will give you deeper insight into specific connections your customers tend to make. You might find, for instance, that webinar sign-ups have a far greater likelihood of conversion if they also download a related white paper. You would know, then, to offer access to the white paper directly after the webinar.
The power other people have to influence buying decisions is great. In general, we trust the wisdom of crowds to tell us when a movie's worth seeing, a restaurant's worth sampling, or a product's worth buying. You'll see this social principle at work on the big sites too; reviews and "other customers bought" sections drive sales through social pressure. A single referral from an expert or notable industry leader carries enough weight to persuade any number of prospects to become regular customers.
The contact information in your database is a rich source of referrals and reviews. Don't be shy about asking your best customers to tell others why they're delighted with your service. With a marketing automation system that includes CRM data, you and your database manager can quickly find the right people to approach.
Intuitive Experiences
You want your leads to be able to shop with you as effortlessly as possible. In B2B sales, the longer sales cycle and the increased layers of buying authority you may need to navigate makes it even more important to eliminate friction in the decision-making process. Responsive design that automatically configures itself to the device a viewer's using ensures that your email and landing pages will be accessible on any platform. Nurture programs seamlessly guide prospects through a buying journey without constant hands-on marketing efforts, yet they feel responsive for leads.
Database marketing is cuddlier than you might think. With it, you get to know your buyers better, and in turn, you're able to deliver a fully personalized experience.

Things To Remember for Memorial Day!!
MEMORIAL DAY - 1st and foremost Memorial Day is a Day of Remembrance! Why? - "Memorial Day started off as a somber day of remembrance; a day when Americans went to cemeteries and placed flags or flowers on the graves of our war dead. It was a day to remember ancestors, family members, and loved ones who gave the ultimate sacrifice." Memorialday.org The remembrance started in the years following the Civil War and became an official holiday in 1971!
Many of my direct family members fought and survived fighting in WW I & WWII. Many of my friend fought and survived Vietnam! They have passed along the importance of remembering those who fought for our freedom and gave their lives to keep us free! We encourage you to observe Memorial Day by at least displaying the U.S. flag! For more ideas for observing this day visit Sheknows.com!

Calgarians can finally start downloading the Uber app again because the ride share company could be coming back to the city by December 6th after a long battle with City Council over rules surrounding transportation network companies.
The City chased the company out of town last year after they launched without adhering to certain regulations including having the right type of insurance, background checks and vehicle inspections.
That type of insurance wasn't available in Alberta at the time and although the city argued that they would be operating illegally without it, Uber started up anyway.
This led the city to launch a sting operation on Uber by hiring criminals to infiltrate their background check system which allowed them to get an injunction against Uber to stop them from operating until they followed the city's rules. Under the old rules, TNC's were required to pay hefty fees both upfront and on a per kilometre basis, undergo background checks and stringent vehicle inspections. Uber said the rules were unworkable, especially for their part time drivers.
Now the city says they'll lift the injunction and have made some changes to the rules that will be more favourable to Uber and its drivers.
This is of course, under the condition that the company pay the fees and costs of approximately $20,000, related to the injunction. It looks like Uber and freedom have won for now and Calgarians will be able to enjoy the freedom of a cheaper ride sharing service.
Having had a chance to take an Uber in Toronto recently, I found it clean, affordable and efficient.
Once Calgarians take a ride in an Uber, they'll never go back to taking a taxi again despite the backlash from the Mayor and city councillors.

|The roses are his obsession.
They cling to a narrow strip of dirt next to the concrete pathway. Sometimes I see him watering them. If I could speak Chinese, I would ask him how long he has lived in the village. I would ask him why he chose roses for his little strip of garden. I would ask him what he thinks about while he squats there, smoking a cigarette.
|Workers dig with pick and shovel.
Below is the famous Old Gate of Tsinghua University, which I pass through every day on my bicycle on the way to the office. Tourists are always posing in front of it. Many professional organizations come to the campus for courses, and they often pose for a picture on a portable grandstand that is set up for the purpose. Given how often I pass through that gate, I must be in hundreds of snapshots of tourists.

The bicycle shelter
There is a battle for space outside our apartment building. In the year and a half since we have been living here, more and more residents seem to have bought cars. They park in front of the doorways to the apartments, in front of the bicycle shelters, on both sides of the street. It is difficult for two cars to pass.
The bicycle shelter has become a graveyard for the two-wheeled vehicles abandoned by visiting international professors and students. No one seems to have the authority to remove the old ones, so they pile up. Sometimes we can't find a space, so we park our bikes against the building. A local vendor cleared out some space in the bicycle shelter to store vegetables. I told the office administrator at the university about it, showed her this picture and the next day the vegetables were gone.

Yesterday I skipped ahead and wrote a scene where my MC is suffering emotional torment. That was a lot of fun.
I need to figure out how to keep this ms simmering on a front burner over the next month or so, and not let it get pushed completely aside.
And I need to figure out what to do about that &%$@! saggy part. It's driving me insane. I just want it to be fixed so I can move on. Is that too much to ask? I don't think so.
The reasons for this blog: 1. To provide basic author information for students, teachers, librarians, etc. (Please see sidebar) 2. I think out loud a lot as I work through writing projects, and I'm trying to dump most of those thoughts here rather than on my friends.

The company creates designs based on modern, innovative aesthetics from a diverse range of select designers. Sprong started his career as a photographer until he discovered there was a market in the décor industry for custom printed, massive, high-quality, wall paper. When he initially founded his firm, he outsourced the printing, but soon realized it was more cost-effective to invest in eco-friendly, HP Latex printers allowing him to increase his revenue and improve his productivity. He relies on HP PVC-free Wall Paper for consistent, high-quality, environmentally-friendly results for many of his projects.
"HP PVC-free Wall Paper appealed to me because of its eco-friendly, odorless qualities," says Sprong. "The print quality is fantastic, and the fact that it's non-PVC makes it a fairly obvious choice; however, the product is still very strong and has the ability to be used in high-traffic areas."
Sprong has created wallcoverings for some of the most prestigious companies worldwide including Investec Bank, The Ritz Hotel, Kingsbury Hospital, Theatre on the Square, and Environ Cosmeceutics to name a few. Marley Boutique Hotel in Camps Bay, Cape Town, in which he printed 800 meters of wall decorations, stands out as the pride and joy of the company's diverse portfolio.

Why is the seminar on light so intense? There is no doubt that light stimulates the body to produce important physiological responses. The psychiatrist, Baba Pendse, focused on the impact of LED lights on human mental health. He found that LED lighting can regulate the rhythm of biological cycles, which can affect sleep, alertness and performance. On the contrary, bright light, especially in the late afternoon, is more likely to help people stay awake. So Pendse believes that people who crave light are motivated by the desire to acquire information. Bright light can make the environment clearer and collect more information. Under the bright LED lights, we can read idly, or easily see what the children are doing.
On the other hand, people don't feel the same way in the same light. Because everyone reacts differently to light, just like everyone has their own favorite food preferences. So there's almost no particular kind of LED lighting that can satisfy everyone in the office.
As one of the most reliable manufacturers of led lighting equipment in China,splendid lighting is committed to becoming the world's best manufacturer and manufacturer of led industrial lighting equipment. We offer competitive price for high quality LED area lighting and LED lighting solutions. Visit our website www.splendid-light.com learn more about our LED area lights and other LED lighting products.

The OECD has issued in May 2005 a guidance note on the development of Standard Audit File –Tax (SAF-T) and recommends the use of SAF-T as a means of exporting accurate tax accounting data to tax authorities in such way that can it can be analyzed easily.
Portugal has now implemented this guidance per January 1, 2013. On monthly basis, companies are obliged to submit the SAF-T (PT) reports for sales invoices to the tax authorities. Besides the SAF-T (PT) requirement there is also a Portuguese requirement to implement a digital signature for all sales invoices.
All the actions proposed to be taken up by the Commission in this document are consistent and compatible with the current Multi-annual Financial Framework 2007- 2013 and the new Multi-annual Financial Framework 2014-2020.
31. Develop an EU Standard Audit File for Tax (SAF-T) The use of an EU standard audit file for tax (SAF-T), along the lines of what is already in force or under development in certain Member States, would both facilitate voluntary compliance from taxable persons and facilitate tax audits. A pilot project is currently under development in the specific context of the mini One Stop Shop for telecommunications, broadcasting and electronic services. Its further development should be envisaged.
A checklist re submitting data to the tax authorities
- Have you analyzed the data and performed a tax risk assessment?
- What are the tax authorities doing with this data: perform data analysis?
- Does not meeting the requirement result in a higher risk of a tax audit?
- What are the KPIs of the tax authorities?
- If not impacting the present does the company show a audit trail that can be retroactively be investigated and backfire to tax position taken (ammunition for contra arguments, increase of penalties)
- If the data provided does not meet the required data format could this result in a higher risk of a tax audit?
- To avoid unforeseen risks or mitigate this risk is it not necessary to perform a data analysis prior to submitting data, as an internal pre-audit?
Is the mandatory data request approach of the Portuguese tax authorities
- Is the mandatory data request approach of the Portuguese tax authorities incidental or will this become a future trend?
- Is it not likely in the downturn economy that more countries will follow this in order to maximize tax revenues?
- What is the current status in the European Union or beyond?

The City Bus
For weeks Henry has been spotting buses as we drive around claiming, "I want to ride on the city bus". So, today we made his month! Henry, Lucy and I took a ride on the #11 to Point Defiance. We learned it doesn't actually take us all the way to the zoo, but it does drop off at a park right in front of Anthony's. Lucky Mom. So I ordered some fish tacos, we walked around watching aqua construction and waited for the bus home. What a morning!

2. If you haven't seen The Sandlot, your crazy. See it too.
3. There is a scene in the new Nancy Drew movie where she is bribing a records worker with a Blonde Brownie. I must have one.
Does anyone have a good Blonde Brownie recipe? I want a thick, moist, with white chocolate chips recipe. I attempted my own version tonight and failed miserably. Anyone who has had my baked goods before, is not shocked as I admittedly suffer in this area of the kitchen. Please help!

Brought to tears today by a bear and three hangers. A gift arrived today from my Grandma Mimi and Grandpa Bobbie's best friends of 50+ years, the Gavins. The last time I saw these friends was at my Grandpa Freeman's funeral and again, lost my composure. They just do that to me! They are in the middle of a move to Terwillger Plaza, where John's Grandma and Grandpa also chose to retire. In the move, they found some treasures and "just thought of us". The hangers are 90 years old and have sweetly hung many generations of children's clothing in their family. The Steiff bear is the same bear they bought as a gift for me when I was born. The Gavins represent a special breed of kindness, rarely found. We love them and I am touched and inspired today by thier act of kindness. Thank you Gavins.

Blac Chyna Poses Nude For Elle Mag (Too) And Rob Defends Her From The Haters
Paper and Elle Magazine? Stay mad, haters!
Blac Chyna has posed nude for not one, but two major magazines recently. Her Paper Magazine cover rivaled Kim Kardashian's in its ability to break the internet, and now she's turning heads with an equally revealing Elle photo shoot.
The stunning black-and-white photos feature Chyna rocking a shaggy black bob, black lingerie, and lots of lace. Chyna shared the pics on her Instagram and definitely seems proud of how far she's come, captioning one of the photos, "From XXL to Elle."
And if you're mad? Well, you can go ahead and stay mad - at least, that's what her fiancé Rob Kardashian thinks. Rob, who's known for being social media shy (though less so, since he and Chyna got together), shared a slew of pics from his girl's Elle shoot on his own Insta.
In the captions, Rob gushed about how proud he is of Chyna and poked fun at the haters, writing, "Proud of u mama @blacchyna. AND I LOVEEEE how mad some of you are. So many miserable people." And he didn't hold back on the emojis, either. See Rob's posts and Chyna's pics below.

Consumer Reports gives credit unions highest marks ever awarded to an industry
Posted 3 years ago
We are proud to note that America's credit unions received among the highest marks for service that Consumer Reports has ever given to an industry in the magazine's recent financial services series "Bank & Credit Union Buying Guide."
The magazine recommends consumers use their local credit unions for auto loans, checking, savings and many other financial services.
"Credit unions are among the highest-rated services we've ever evaluated, with 93% of their customers highly satisfied, on average, vs. 69% for the four biggest national banks," said Jeff Blyskal of Consumer Reports. "That satisfaction is driven by good customer service, not surprising when you consider that credit unions are owned and managed by their members."
Consumer Reports was clear in recommending credit unions for your next auto loan: "Choose a credit union for a car loan, because those institutions often offer the lowest rates--another good reason to join one. Get prequalified before you shop."
Beware of fraudulent texts & emails claiming to be from the National Credit Union Administration
Posted 3 years ago
More than 40 consumers around the country have received a scam phone text message purporting to use a National Credit Union Administration phone number, the agency announced Wednesday.
Consumers who receive a text from 703-518-6301 asking for personal information should contact the agency's Consumer Assistance Center hotline at 800-755-1030.
The NCUA's privacy policy states that it will never request personal or financial information from consumers.
According to the NCUA, the perpetrators are able to mimic a telephone number to generate text messages. The messages may warn of a debit card reaching its limit or use some other trick to persuade individuals to provide personal information or go to a malicious website.
Consumers should not click on links in the message, provide information to any websites referenced in the message nor attempt to conduct any financial transactions through those websites.
This attempted fraud scam is classified as "spoofing" by the Federal Communications Commission.
Comsumers should also be aware of scammers using a website with a logo and design similar to that of the National Credit Union Administration are attempting to convince consumers to provide sensitive information or send money.
According to the NCUA, consumers have received emails from the National Credit Union website, which is not affiliated in any way with the NCUA, a federal agency, and the emails are not from the agency.
The site apparently originates in Australia, the NCUA said in its warning, and claims to offer services in the United States, Europe and the Commonwealth of Independent States. The emails attempt to persuade individuals to provide personal information, such as Social Security numbers, account numbers and login information, or transfer large amounts of money.
The NCUA warns that consumers should not should neither provide information to this website nor attempt to conduct any financial transactions through it. The NCUA would not request personal or financial information in this manner.
Consumers receiving such emails should call NCUA's Fraud Hotline at 800-827-9650 and should also contact the Internet Crime Complaint Center, a partnership between the FBI and the National White Collar Crime Center. The NCUA also offers information about avoiding frauds and scams.
Consumers who suspect they may have become victims of identity theft should immediately contact their financial institutions and, if necessary, close existing accounts and open new ones.
NCUA urges consumers also contact the three major credit bureaus -- Equifax (800-525-6285), Experian (888-397-3742) and TransUnion (800-680-7289) -- to request a fraud alert be placed on their credit reports.

Wikipedia offers this for the term Tsunami: A tsunami is a series of water waves caused by the displacement of a large volume of a body of water. And this is what a tsunami is thought of around the whole world. However in Pakistan it means something different entirely. A tsunami is what will save Pakistan.

Okay, first off, you should know that this is my last year of IGCSE and I thought 'Why not put my life in further difficulties and give three exams early?' As if giving them a few months later wasn't bad enough. I cannot for the life of me remember why I opted for that but that's basically what's taking most of my potential blogging time.
Anyways, down to business. The Oatmeal is a really awesome site. It features some hilarious comics, brilliant quizzes and just plain awesomeness. Plus they are illustrated really well. When I stumbled upon one of its quizzes, I was hooked. I must have taken a fair number of these hilarious quizzes. I thought as a easy post I'd share my results with you all.

How are you all doing?
I am at work, but since I am the boss, I decided I could spend a quick 10 minutes while I eat my dessert to do a quick blogpost.
Not much to tell you since I already said it in these two videos.
Check them out.
Hi Joy, Princess Di's quilt is just beautiful. Some little boy will be very lucky to be able to cuddle up in it.
You know, no matter what you do or say, there is always going to be someone out there who will pick or criticize. I am happy you waved them on down the YouTube road. TaTa!!
Peggy Sagers, I have one of her patterns, and the one you are showing isn't it. lol Since I have a tummy, I try not to pile fabric on it. Yikes!! However, this week I did make Kwik Sew 3915. It is a ruched neck top with 2 neckline options. I made the v-neck and just love it. It needs buttons, my stash does not contain exactly what is needed so a trip to Joann's is in order. I like the top so well I cut another out as soon as the machine stopped rolling on the first one. Have a great weekend. Barb in North Arlington, TX
I love your blogs and vblogs! However for whatevervreason, I was not able to view the first one-about sew along with Peggy. Did you do something different with that one? Princess Di is a cutie pie-thanks for showing her quilt! It was a beautyReplyDelete
Hi Joy! I do love watching and following you on whatever you make. I pick up pointers all of the time. I love Peggy Sagers. I think she is a fabulous down to earth teacher. I watch her episodes on Fit 2 Stitch on PBS and always learn something new. I can't wait to see your finished product after the sew-a-long. You are extremely talented. Have a blessed weekend.ReplyDelete

Cash Flow System
System: a set of principles or procedures according to which something is done; an organized method or arrangement.
Do you know what date you will be completely debt free? Do you know when you will reach your retirement savings goal? If not, that's a problem, but I can help you create a customized Cash Flow Plan using a highly effective Cash Flow System that is used by many Finance Professionals across Canada to put you on the right path. As a Certified Cash Flow Specialist, I will first show you how much money you can save by reducing interest charges. Then, if you want to proceed, we will work with you to develop your unique Cash Flow Plan based on reasonable and attainable goals.
If you're like most Canadians, you probably didn't take any money management classes in high-school or college because they didn't exist (and still don't). So, if you're puzzled about how to be a successful money manager, it's not really your fault. Most of us learned about how to manage our money by listening to and observing our parents, who probably learned from their parents, and so on. However, there just might be a better way of handling your money. A Cash Flow Plan can really help.
Everyone has their own ideas on how to manage money, but generally speaking, we all fall into one of several Money Mindsets. What's your Money Mindset? Find out by completeing this quick Money Mindset questionnaire and we will automatically email you your results. Then, you can read about each Money Mindset in more detail by reading the Money Mindset descriptions found in our website Library.
I may not be able to help every client, but I'll certainly do my very best to put you into a better financial position than you are today. Don't put this off any longer! Just give me a call or email me at email@example.com and I will email you an on-line Financial Questionnaire where you can tell me a bit more about your situation.

Original Source:
We've said so many times: one of the "outsider" bikes that attracted more interest to the last Eicma, excluding the superstars, was Fantic Caballero. There were two prototypes at the
Venetian House stand , one of 500 cc and one of 125 . Very popular with the public, Caballero has been curiosizing for months and every time we talk about the clicks, they are getting bigger. It also happened with
the interviewin which Mariano Roman (AD Fantic) talked about how the Caballero family will grow in the future, even with cylinders higher
than 500 cc.
Meanwhile, however, we Caballero 500 tried it exclusively in the world and we gave it the honor of the July Motorcycle Cover. For full service, with technical and design details, you can request the backlog by writing to email@example.com , but here's an excerpt from the section on road and offroad impression impressions.
Let's start by telling you that we are on the move with a bike that is still a prototype, albeit very advanced. The final bike will arrive in November, but the aesthetic is this, while the new engine built by the Chinese Zongshen on Fantic specifications is yet to be slightly tuned. Inside the center volumes go well in the sitting seat, but when standing up on the footrests, they interfere with the leg. The same hot zone, but the collectors do not yet have the final insulation. For the rest, the saddle position is comfortable and effective in any situation, especially in the center-advanced position. The weight is contained and allows you to drive smoothly even in off-road. Suspensions are very well copied, but it is best to avoid deep holes or jumps. And when you want to be aggressive in driving, the Caballero 500 becomes a "crossbones", well controllable with the body: just unload the rear and point the front. In short, great fun.
On the road you drive with ease and sense of lightness, the saddle is not at stratospheric height and it touches well with your feet. The brakes are very effective, and in general all controls are well accessible. The engine is gentle in the gas response, reacts to the first opening with a pleasant sound and speeds in a regular and controllable manner. The general, this one-cylinder does not impress by power, but has certainly not been built for this. Vibrations are difficult to evaluate because some details are not definitive ones (such as clutch) but some pulsation is noticeable. The dumbbelled tires, as a rule for a Scrambler, are effective in any situation: on asphalt and off-road tires, the condition we found in this test, they have maintained their effectiveness.

Comic Book Review: Shadow #2
Once again it feels good to have a Shadow book to look forward to each month. There have been other stories, but none that were the genuine article. Here we have a man who might be the Shadow and that is just the first mystery on top of wondering what the deal is with this burn patient. Experiencing this through someone who has encountered the Shadow and was rescued by him makes things interesting where you want to know how far a person like her would be willing to go to show appreciation. That is if Mary's hunch is right about who she is helping.
Considering we are working up to a point of discovery, the start to this issue felt just right as a treat to readers. I figured that Mary's story wouldn't be the only one we explore from the Shadow's past. This one served as another example of how badass he can be when dealing with the corrupt. There's no slap on the wrist, and he surely doesn't go easy on you if you are coming at him with killer intent. Of course this moment also has more to do with what might have actually put the Shadow in this bed and without his memory. Now the other scene from the past was fascinating for the point in time and the people involved. Luckily what seemed like a random memory from him drew some strong connections to what is going on in the present. Both events made a difference in showing him doing what he does best.
Getting back to Mary and our mystery patient, I like that she's so engaged with someone who may or may not be the Shadow. All signs point to this being the big guy, but at the same time it couldn't just based off of what we knew happened the last time the Shadow was in action. Either way its interesting to what methods she would rely on to help someone recover their memory. It certainly wouldn't be anything magical like the Shadow's ring, so you had to wonder how experienced she is to accomplish something through her skills as a nurse. That aside, getting more into her personal life didn't hurt either. The fact that w could follow Mary and her sister Luisa into an investigation of their own about a Shadow fan-site that could connect to her patient shook things up. If there wasn't an urgency to make sure that this guy is who people think he is, now a fire has been lit to get those answers sooner than later.
It also goes without saying that there's something to appreciate about a character like Mary who is very aware of the world around her. I don't think we get enough of characters like her who are in-tune with things that affect you through politics and so forth.
Another issue with solid work from this art team. For a story where the Shadow isn't presently in action, we are getting more than our fair share of activity from him still. Seeing as though this new volume of the Shadow acts as one that a new reader can jump into, the art team captured him in moments where he could really show how he handles evil. The first issue was just dealing with some idiot kids. This however showed what the Shadow does when there is less restraint from him. He makes you fear him, you're lucky if he makes your end swift, and muscle means very little when he can get in your head with ease. Very good use of warm colors during that first glimpse of a past memory. Natalia Marques made a great choice in creating flames without too much aid of the pencils to subtract from the flow. The second memory had a different atmosphere though more grounded for the human interaction. Together they got things just right between the pale overlapping to emphasize a flashback, and creating a convincing setting of 1929. With that said, the focus put on Mary was engaging when understanding the kind of simple life she lives outside of work. You could at the very least see that her experience with the Shadow made her someone who cares about her physicality.
Overall I enjoyed the use of the polka dot style to the artwork. For a modern story it gives this a classic look to it that is more fitting when dealing with the Shadow.
After the events of Shadow #2, the mystery behind Mary's burn patient is becoming clearer with everyone seeming to be on the same train of thought about the vanished vigilante. Considering the setting of his story, I'm glad that they have found a way to properly play into the legend of the Shadow. He is someone to be both feared and praised, for better or for worse with current circumstances.

The White Lily
In the northern Varis Empire, Friedrich Volya, the Duke of Winter Hill is the one in charge. His uncles are Dominik (the most ruthless of the Queen's sons) and Marius (he married the leader of the rebellion and "betrayed" his family). Friedrich is on the side of the rebellion. Someone in his land is spreading a pamphlet of support for the rebellion and is called "The White Lily." Dominik is on a quest to find and bring down this person.
Brennalyn has lived in Terrington for the last 3 years. She works as a school teacher, taking in orphans who have no where else to go. She also is an agitator and is actively working for social change.
I've enjoyed each book in this series. Each is a fairy tale retelling. This one is Snow White. Brenna has 7 orphans (Helena, Emment, Caden, Beatrice, Jack, Denny, and Izzy) that she is mom to. They think of her as mom and I loved Friedrich's reaction to them too. I liked, although it's brief, reading about Arabelle, Marius, Sienna, and Nikolai again after their stories. The underlying story is progressing and I like where this is going.
No description is out for book 4 (assuming there will be a book 4), but I'm guessing it will be Dragomir Vilhelmina of Arkadia's book, aka Mina. I hope. I suspect maybe Mikhail (Blood Guard) or Dane as the love interest. I'm interested to see if I'm right.

Remember that video of a mysterious Ferrari apparently to be a test lab for the new V6 Turbo a la F1 2014 which went viral a few weeks back? If not, view the post HERE
When Montezemolo spoke at the end of 2013 of a possible return to Le Mans Ferrari, many (even among employees of Maranello) were excited, but many have also thought it was the usual more or less veiled threat that was launched periodically to force some more favorable decision by the Federation. But this time there is something more concrete, and has been immortalized by a viral video that has gone mad for the internet and YouTube, with a "strange" LaFerrari recovery in Fiorano.
But that sound suspect did not come from an anticipation of the V6 turbo F1 2014 , as many had supposed, but by a supercharged V8 engine - a hybrid and more suitable for use in a historic 24 Hours. Because the two "brands" are really approximating legendary, both for the victories this year from 458 in the GT Endurance races, either because the technology between the F1 and Le Mans are no longer so different, providing not only a formula based on efficiency, but also Kers and Ers-H in both cases.
