(Harrisburg) -- On Tuesday, state representatives approved an amendment to reduce school property taxes by raising the state sales and personal income tax rates, a proposal that would create a major shift in how education is funded in Pennsylvania.
The proposal, combined with current property tax reduction money from gaming revenue, would provide $4.9 billion in tax relief, according to state Rep. Stan Saylor, R-Windsor Township, the leading backer of the plan. He called Tuesday's vote the start of a process.
"It is something that this General Assembly has waited way too long to do," Saylor said on the House floor. "It's time for us to give real relief to the taxpayers of Pennsylvania."
The House approved Saylor's amendment with a bipartisan 109 to 86 vote Tuesday afternoon.
Lawmakers rejected other amendments Tuesday evening.
In order to become law, the bill itself still needs to pass the House and Senate, and then get approval from Democratic Gov. Tom Wolf. Wolf has proposed his own property tax reduction plan, which has some key differences with Saylor's plan, including in how funding would be distributed.
Wolf spokesman Jeff Sheridan called Tuesday's vote on Saylor's amendment "an important and encouraging development" for moving the process forward and continuing the conversation. He said the governor plans to continue working with lawmakers "to try to narrow the differences."
Saylor has said that his plan, unlike Wolf's, would provide dollar-for-dollar tax reduction for all new revenue raised. Saylor has said his plan would lead to a 40 percent to 60 percent cut in school property taxes for most homeowners, while also providing some increased funding for a property tax and rent rebate program.
Several lawmakers who spoke on the House floor Tuesday said Saylor's proposal wasn't perfect, but that they wanted to keep the conversation going.
"This is not the amendment that I would write. But I'm not in the majority," said state Rep. Bryan Barbin, a Democrat representing parts of Cambria and Somerset counties.
Barbin said lawmakers need to reach an agreement to help seniors stay in their homes.
The proposal from Saylor would raise the personal income tax rate from 3.07 percent to 3.7 percent and the state sales and use tax rate from 6 percent to 7 percent. It would not expand what is covered by the state sales and use tax, Saylor said.
Many opponents of the legislation said it would not do enough to prevent school boards from raising taxes in the future.
State Rep. Daryl Metcalfe, R-Butler County, said the proposal should come with a "taxpayer beware" warning in red letters on property tax bills, "because you're going to be paying more."
State Rep. Eli Evankovich, a Republican representing parts of Allegheny and Westmoreland counties, said the proposal would shift costs onto the "younger, working-class families."
State Rep. Kate Harper, R-Montgomery County, said the plan would give relief to malls and other businesses that own a lot of land, while putting the burden on individuals and families.
House Majority Leader Dave Reed, R-Indiana County, was one of the lawmakers who spoke in favor of the proposal on the House floor. He said finding a way to reduce property taxes is not easy.
"There is an expectation among those in the public that there is an easy fix, that there is a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow," Reed said.

From candy buffets to custom creations (have you tried a cruffle?), here are seven San Francisco bakeries breaking the mold and bucking tradition to make inventive and delicious desserts guests are sure to love.
Sift Dessert Bar (Above)
Sift founders Andrea Ballus and Corey Fanfa won Food Network's Cupcake Wars in 2011, so there's no doubt that the baking duo has skills; one taste of their cupcakes, cookies, macarons, mini pies, and ice-cream sandwiches confirms that they know how to turn simple ingredients into something sublime. They even invented their own unique creation, the cruffle, a decadent confection of cake and frosting mixed together and hand dipped in chocolate. They'll work with your tastes and colors to create a custom dessert bar, and with locations in San Francisco, Napa, and Sonoma, they cover the whole Bay Area. *Read real brides' reviews here! *

In addition to homemade cupcakes, cookies, brownies, macarons, and mini pies, Pretty Please offers something truly special: twinks, which are similar in shape and size to those Twinkies you loved as a kid (only so much better). The oblong cream-filled cakes come in both the classic yellow cake as well as more refined flavors like pumpkin spice and red velvet. Read real brides' reviews here!

The OG of San Francisco cupcakes, Kara opened her first cupcake bakery in 2005; now there are 10 Bay Area locations of the beloved shop. The tasty cupcakes are handmade in small batches using local and organic products and come in standard varieties (sweet vanilla, peanut butter chocolate) and not-so-standard (passionfruit, java). There's also a line of gluten-free cupcakes with the same delicious flavor but no wheat. Caramel corn, handmade marshmallows, and seasonal cookies are also available. For added fun, book the "Karavan" — a cupcake food truck that will park at your venue. Read real brides' reviews here!

FMLA 101 – What Expecting Parents Need to Know About the Family Medical Leave Act
The FMLA was designed and passed so that people could take care of their families without the fear of losing their jobs, but it has become an important tool for new parents. The FMLA guarantees you come back to your job at the same position, or if that position must be filled in your absence or is otherwise not available, you are offered one substantially equal in pay, benefits, and responsibility. Benefits are also protected and whatever you had when you left must be reinstated upon your return. They also need to maintain your health insurance for the time you are gone.
Important Facts About FMLA - Are You Covered?
- Smaller employers are NOT bound by the FMLA. Only employers with over 50 employees in a 50 mile radius must follow these rules.
- Employees must have been employed for at least a year AND at least 1250 hours. If you're part-time you may not meet this threshold.
- The leave is UNPAID.
- You can't be a KEY employee, which is defined as someone who earns in the top 10% of all the employees in a 75 mile radius. For example, the district manager of a chain of retail stores is probably exempt.
- You don't need to take all your 12 weeks at once, but they must be used within a year.
- FMLA leave can begin before your baby is born, for example if you need to go on bed rest.
Parental Leave Not Just For Moms
It's important to note that the FMLA is not maternity leave. The FMLA is not just for mothers. New fathers are equally entitled to take twelve weeks off work to care for a new baby. In fact, many employers are now offering paid paternity leave as a benefit in addition.
Planning Parental Leave
Employers may offer a paid maternity leave, vacation, or short-term disability insurance that can be combined to provide some income during the time away from work. Make sure you know your benefits. Some policies offer more paid time off if you have to have a C-Section.
Parents need to take into consideration the work situation and benefits of each person to make the most of parental leave. Keep in mind that while using vacation, sick days, and other benefits to create a paid time off, these typically are not going to extend your 12 weeks. That's the maximum you can be away and have your employer be held to the FMLA. That said, many employers are happy to give you extra time off if you ask. It depends on your situation. Just make sure to get any agreements outside of 12 weeks in writing!

April 28th. 1612 marks the birth of Odoardo Farnese, also known as
Odoardo I Farnese, to distinguish him from his grandson
Odoardo II Farnese.
His parents were Ranuccio I Farnese and Margherita Aldobrandini.
Love & Marriage
On October 11th. 1628 Odoardo Farnese married Margherita de' Medici,
a daughter of Cosimo II de' Medici and Maria Maddalena of Austria.
This took place in Florence (Italy).
The wedding ceremonies were accompanied with much spectacle, including
the performance of a special opera.
Margherita de' Medici was described as a beautiful, amiable and well-educated
woman. The Duke was very devoted to her.
The years in which the couple ruled over Parma were marked by the Plague
in 1630. There also was a huge contrast between the Splendor of the court
and the way their subjects lived. A raise in Tax Income was used to improve
Odoardo 's army.
The Duke also had a pro-French policy, therefore he made an alliance with
France in 1633 to moved out the Spanish troops from his Duchy.
Finally in 1637, Pope Urbanus VIII convinced him to sign a peace treaty.
In 1641 the Duke was excommunicated by the same Pope, however due
to a peace in 1644 Odoardo Farnese was reconciled with the
Roman Catholic Church.
On September 11th. 1646, Odoardo I Farnese, died suddenly in his
favorite residence, Piacenza (Italy).

As you'll recall, at the end of Session #7 of our Tomb of Horrors adventure we left our four heroes trapped in the Juggernaut Corridor. A terrifying magical construct (played by a plastic baby elephant that I picked up at Hobby Lobby) was advancing, then suddenly retreating, charting an erratic course along the corridor on its heavy bloodstained wheels. At the start of our most recent session, Jack (revenant human assassin), Zerbitt (human thief), and Laramie (eladrin druid) breathed a sigh of relief as the construct rolled past them, heading back east toward its start area. (Unfortunately, Marrak's player wasn't able to join us for Session #8 because of a family emergency. We missed you, Steve!)
Once the construct was past them, Jack was the first of the group to make a break southward toward safety. As she neared the doorway at the end of the hallway, though, the floor suddenly collapsed underneath her. She fell straight down about ten feet and then the pit turned into a slide-like chute that deposited her in a 5-foot-diameter crawlspace. She could see that the crawlspace went off to the north. After Laramie and Zerbitt jumped into the pit and slid down the chute to join her, the party made their way through the crawlspace. Another corridor and a wondrous door lay beyond the narrow crawlspace.
Pillared Throne Room
After exiting the crawlspace, the group saw that an enormous door filled the corridor from floor to ceiling, gleaming with the dull sheen of adamantine. Once they pushed through the door, the party was in a huge chamber. A gentle breeze was blowing through the room. The ceiling of the room was supported by scores of massive columns, each carved of colorful pastel stone. In the northwest and northeast corners, just below the ceiling, the walls were set with mosaics of green and blue devil faces. Other than being set up so high, they appeared to be exactly the same as that first seen in the entrance hall to the tomb. Jack also found three doors (two blue and the other a faint lilac color) set at different points along the chamber's north wall. Meanwhile, across the room, Zerbitt and Laramie discovered a huge dais to the south. Atop the dais rested an obsidian throne inlaid with silver and ivory skulls. A gold crown and a scepter of gold and silver rested innocently upon the throne. (The crown was solid gold and set with white diamonds while the scepter was crafted of a silver-gold alloy, with a golden ball at one end and a silver knob at the other.) The front of the throne was set with silver panel featuring a replica of the crown. In the farthest corner of the room, Zerbitt and Laramie also came across the charred remains of a half-dozen adventurers circled around a huge, glowing orange gem.
After Zerbitt used his 10 foot pole to carefully push the crown and scepter into his pack, he and Laramie spent a while messing around with the throne. They tried to push it, sat on it, and tried to push it again. Nothing happened. Giving up on the throne for the time being, they moved north to join Jack. Zerbitt and Jack both tied rope to two shovels and tossed them up into the devils' mouths. Both shovels, along with the rope, were sucked into the mouths and disappeared. It was after this little experiment that Jack decided to touch one of the pillars as she made her way across the room. After disappearing into the green devil's mouth, Jack was teleported nude to the Tomb's entrance hall. Standing next to the 'original' green devil face in the hallway, she found a shovel and some rope at her feet. Picking them up, she made her way back to the Chapel of Evil, hoping to find her gear laid out on the altar(like had happened before), but nothing was there. Heading back out into the Great Hall of Spheres, she decided to go through the misty archway. The archway teleported her to the top of the hill above the entrance to the Tomb. Discouraged, she slowly made her way back down into the entrance hall…
Meanwhile, back in the Pillared Throne Room, Zerbitt and Laramie once again set to pushing the throne. It once again wouldn't budge, not even a bit. Stumped by the throne, Laramie decided to pick up the gem. With a successful Arcana check, the druid found that the gem was a powerful magic item that allowed a creature to make a single wish for anything it desired. Not realizing it was actually a Cursed Wishing Gem that reverses or perverts the wish, bringing doom to that character and all named in the wish, Laramie wished that Jack would appear and be standing next to him.
At that exact moment back out in the entrance hall, poor Jack— still nude and still pitifully clutching her shovel and rope— found herself being drawn irresistibly toward the evil-looking face of the great green devil. Unable to stop herself, she was swept into the devil's dead black mouth. The mouth, a sphere of annihilation, instantly and completely and forever destroyed her.
In the Pillared Throne Room, Laramie wasn't exactly sure what had just happened, except that it probably wasn't anything good. Jack hadn't appeared, and the gem he was holding had begun to pulse with a sinister red glow. A second later, it exploded in his hand.
Careful what you wish for! Wish magic was a popular part of older editions of D&D— not just for the power it offered players, but for the fun a DM could have twisting the wishes in amusing ways. This gem in the Tomb takes that concept to its worst level.
Apparently deciding that he didn't have much to lose after the gem exploded in his hand, Laramie boldly put on the crown and sat on the throne. Nothing happened. Well he could see within the darkened room as if in normal daylight, and he suspected that while wearing the crown he would be immune to the effect of the pillars of levitation… but other than that, nothing happened.
Heading back up to the north end of the Pillared Throne Room, Zerbitt and Laramie checked out the lilac door. Opening the door, they found a small, bare chamber that had another door on the opposite wall. Pairs of swords crossed behind shields hung there— three such sets were on each of the side walls. When Zerbitt entered the chamber, shields and weapons flew off the walls of their own accord, battering and slashing the thief until he dropped to the ground, unconscious and dying. Stunned by the speed and ferocity of the trap's attack on his ally, Laramie quickly rallied and reached into the chamber, grabbed Zerbitt, and dragged him back through the doorway to safety. After the druid healed his gravely wounded companion, the pair of adventurers took a short rest.
Undaunted by their experience with the Cursed Armory, Laramie and Zerbitt decided to open one of the blue doors. They chose the one to the west. Behind it, they found an empty chamber. Empty, that is, except for an unconscious drow lying on the dusty floor. After rousing the mysterious figure by poking it with Zerbitt's handy 10 foot pole, they discovered that the drow was Jack's "brother" (don't ask), Rylan! Welcome to the Tomb of Horrors, Rylan! As Zerbitt and Laramie introduced themselves and invited Rylan to join their quest against Acererak, they studiously avoided mentioning what had just happened to Jack.
Wondering what and/or who they might find behind the second blue door just across the way, the trio of adventurers opened it and discovered a large wooden sarcophagus resting upon a low stone table. Piling into the small chamber, Zerbitt, Laramie, and Rylan attempted to lift the sarcophagus and carry it out into the Pillared Throne Room. Their plan (are you ready for this?) was to throw the sarcophagus against one of the pillars, breaking it open in that way so that if there just happened to be anything scary in it, the scary thing would touch the pillar and float up the ceiling. Yeah, I know… but I didn't say it was a good plan, I just said it was a plan.
It will probably come as no surprise to you that in attempting to lift the sarcophagus off the table, our heroes dropped it. The lid slid off, revealing the mummified remains of a human, its tattered wrappings partially undone. A huge gem was barely visible in the corpse's left eye socket. Zerbitt lit a torch and tried to set the mummy on fire, but unbeknownst to the thief, the corpse's wrappings were imbued with resistance magic that overcame its normal vulnerability to fire. Doh! Good try, though, Zerbitt. Next, Laramie and Zerbitt synchronizingly stabbed the mummy with their swords. (By that point, Rylan was slowly edging backward out of the chamber, wondering just what he'd gotten himself into by teaming up with these two crazy loons.) When stabbing the mummy didn't provoke any sort of reaction from it, Zerbitt decided he'd use his sword to pop the gem out of its eye. And that, dear reader, is when the shite well and truly hit the fan.
As soon as the gem popped out of its eye socket, the corpse animated as a Mummy Crypt Master. It hit Zerbitt with stunning strike, sliding the thief 3 squares out the doorway and into one of the pillars. Up Zerbitt went, levitated out of the fight. As Laramie and Rylan scrambled out of the small chamber, the mummy crypt master pursued them. While trying to dodge the monster's relentless attacks, the druid and drow watched as Zerbitt was sucked into the blue devil face's gaping maw and disappeared from sight. Zerbitt was teleported into the Chamber of Hopelessness. That small chamber was strewn with numerous skeletons and it was foul with the scent of rot. A small fountain spilled water into a basin that overflowed and drained away through side holes along the floor. In glowing letters, a grim warning was set along one wall: "You who dared to violate my tomb now pay the price. Stay here and die slowly of starvation, or open the door to the south and enter where certain but quick death awaits."
Meanwhile, back at the ranch, deciding quite rightly that the two of them were no match for the vicious mummy, Laramie and Rylan hatched a desperate plan— they'd make their way over to the blue devil face and follow Zerbitt through it. Yeah, I know… but I didn't say it was a good plan, I just said it was a plan.
Well, Rylan was able to make his way past the crypt master by doing some kind of acrobatic spider climb deal up along the walls, so he had no problem getting sucked into the devil's mouth. He was duly teleported into the Chamber of Hopelessness. After giving the bewildered drow a moment to take in his dismal surroundings, Zerbitt walked over to him and said, "Hey, have you seen this cool gem I got back there?"
Out in the Pillared Throne Room, Laramie didn't have any nifty move that would allow him to zip along the walls past the mummy and up to the devil's face in the corner, so he'd have to do it the old fashioned way: touch a pillar and float over to the devil's mouth. But first he'd have to take off the crown, right? Right. (Because wearing it made the PC immune to the effect of the pillars of levitation, remember?) But when Laramie tried to take off the crown, he found that he couldn't remove it from his head. Uh oh.
In the Chamber of Hopelessness, Rylan pooh-poohed the grim warning on the wall and opened the door to the south. Beyond it lay the Cursed Armory! Just as Zerbitt was starting to say, "You know, just before we found you, I almost died in that…", Rylan dashed out into the armory, running as quickly as he could for the closed door to the south. As the drow entered the first space, two pairs of shields and weapons animated, flew off the walls, and attacked him. Those attacks bloodied him, but still he pressed on. Two more pairs of shields and swords flew off the walls and attacked him. In the blink of an eye, the drow was dead-dead, knocked down to -66 hit points. Zerbitt, still back in the Chamber of Hopelessness, stood with his mouth hanging open, unable to believe how quickly he had just seen Rylan battered and slashed to little bloody pieces before his eyes.
And that, boys and girls, is where we had to end our eighth session of Tomb of Horrors. Laramie is out in the Pillared Throne Room all by his lonesome, getting pummelled by the mummy crypt master. Zerbitt is trapped in the Chamber of Hopelessness. Will Marrak rejoin them just in time for a TPK?? Will another "brother" of Jack and Rylan's (don't ask) somehow appear in the Tomb and tip the balance of power in the party's favor, averting the disaster that is unfolding???

I didn't want to take the civil war diary blocks off my design wall - it involves standing on my ironing table or the top step of the stool, and I don't like heights. I figured for this shot the floor works OK.
Here is the current "shot" of the shoo fly blocks. This is all the blocks I've made, minus the 10 "negative blocks" that don't have "positive blocks" to partner with. I definitely need to keep better track the next time I'm cutting for these quilts.
last one, you'll notice that the addition of reds and a few yellows really perk up this quilt. Hopefully there are more yellows in the scrap basket - if not I'll need to supplement from the shelves. I know there are many greens in the basket, which is what this quilt needs the most right now. I'll focus on those in the next cutting session. I have no idea if there are any purple or orange scraps in the basket - if not I'll pull from the shelves for those also. Pinks likewise.
I'm loving how this is coming together! Now I'm thinking of a pieced border from half square triangles to use up all those I've added to that box. I'll play with that when the time comes.

This title is more dramatic than how I imaged in my head but I'm not changing it.
Compared to the two previous post, this one will be pretty short.
We arrived at Heathrow at 10 am. I kept it simple with black leggings, a red and black striped turtleneck from Madewell, and my cardigan from Shein.
Monday: Boxing Day
This is such a terrible picture lol. After we dropped off our things we bought at Westfield in our hotel room, I felt warm enough to just wear my cable knit sweater from Woolovers, dark wash skinny jeans from Forever 21 and boots (I wore almost the whole time).
Tuesday: Stonehenge and Roast (the best place we ate at)
We got up early to take a bus (short version of
our Stonehenge experience) to see Stonehenge. I wore my YSL scarf from Saks Off Fifth, red turtleneck sweater from Woolovers, Gloves from Muji, cardigan from Shein, and black high waist skinny jeans from Forever 21.
For dinner at Roast I added my scarf from BCBG to dress it up a little bit.
Bathroom selfie at Roast.
Finishing shopping at Oxford street and dinner at Nobu.
I wore my London Fog trench coat I found at Nieman Marcus Last Call in Phoenix a few years ago, YSL scarf from Saks Off Fifth, white long sleeve turtle neck shirt from Hollister, black silk dress from Madewell, tights from Uniqlo, and boots.
Outfit without the coat. Another bathroom selfie this time at Nobu.
And with the coat open. This was my favorite outfit from the trip!
Thursday: Museum day!
We went to National Gallery Museum and Fashion and Textile Museum.
Second favorite outfit from the trip. I wore my cardigan from Shein, cable knit sweater, a tartan mini skirt from madewell, my black shirt from Forever 21, and tights from Uniqlo.
I wore my Madewell dress again but with a blue long sleeve shirt, cardigan, leggings and boots. I didn't take a selfie. I don't remember why. I think I was just ready to go home lol.
And that's a wrap for my London mini series!
I'm using dancing heart Kai again because:
1.) He looks really good.
2.) It's almost his birthday (the 14th). T
oday is actually Kyungsoo's birthday so happy birthday vocal king.
Next blog post will be an ootd then a music video fashion post.

Trust Bloomberg Tax for the international news and analysis to navigate the complex tax treaty networks and global business regulations.
By Philip D. Morrison, Esq. Deloitte Tax LLP, Washington, DC
Casual students of American history will recall that judicial decisions regarding taxes played only a minor role in knitting together the various states into a national whole and enhancing the role of the federal government. While McCulloch v. Maryland1 was not unimportant, legislative and executive actions up to and through the Civil War, and especially the Civil War itself, played a much bigger part than any judicial tax decisions in having people switch from referring to the United States in the plural ("These United States they…") to the more federal-oriented singular ("TheUnited States it…"). The federal/state balance still remains something of a work-in-progress in the United States, of course, but it took an internecine bloodbath2 and the military subjugation of an entire region to truly create a union out of the United States.
Fortunately, Europe is taking a more peaceful route to unity, and taxes and judicial decisions thereon seem to be one important element in progress to date. The United States of Europe still may be somewhere in the future, but federalism with respect to taxes in the EU has made significant progress in the past few years. Indeed, the European Court of Justice (ECJ) seems to be bringing a modicum of uniformity to European taxation almost single-handedly, without executive or legislative assistance. It is accomplishing this task through its decisions holding various aspects of various EU Member States' tax legislation invalid under the EC Treaty.
Since its decision in the Cadbury-Schweppescases in September 2006, the ECJ has decided numerous cases invalidating portions of Member States' tax legislation, a few of which are discussed below. It is important for U.S. international tax planners to know the basics of some of these cases, not simply to understand the evolution of European income taxation, but also because some of them open planning opportunities for more tax-efficient financing, repatriation of profits, or other cross-border flexibility.
Most recently, in the Societe Papilloncase, the ECJ held the French tax consolidation regime invalid under Article 43 of the EC Treaty as a discriminatory restriction on the freedom of establishment. The offending aspect of the French legislation was the restriction against the consolidation of French subsidiaries held indirectly by a French parent through an intermediary holding company resident outside France (including in another EU country). Thus, after this decision, if France is to continue to permit consolidation, it must allow, for example, consolidation of French affiliates even if their French parent holds them through a Luxembourg holding company. Such a system (as currently exists in the United Kingdom) allows for certain "double-dip" financing structures that avoid the U.S. dual consolidated loss rules.
In the Orange European Smallcap Fund case, the ECJ concluded that a portion of the Dutch tax regime applicable to fiscal investment institutions (mutual funds) was inconsistent with the EC Treaty's prohibition against restrictions on the free movement of capital among EU member countries. Dutch rules generally grant relief for foreign dividend withholding tax with respect to dividends received by the fund. However, Dutch law limits the relief if the fund has foreign shareholders. In that case, relief is granted only to the extent that shares in the fund are held by Dutch resident shareholders. The court found this to be an obstacle for Dutch funds trying to raise capital from residents of other EU Member States and a restriction on the ability of such residents to invest in such funds, both in contravention of the free flow of capital guarantee under the EC Treaty.
The ECJ addressed the U.K. system of taxing companies on foreign-source dividends in the Test Claimants in the FII Group Litigationcase decided in December 2006. Like the United States, the U.K. system under attack in that case: (1) exempted intercompany dividends between U.K.-resident companies (but, unlike the United States, allowed a complete exemption regardless of percentage of share ownership); (2) provided an indirect foreign tax credit for foreign corporate taxes imposed on the earnings distributed by foreign companies to U.K. 10%-or-greater shareholders; and (3) provided a direct foreign tax credit for withholding tax imposed on foreign-source dividends. The court concluded that restricting the indirect credit to 10%-or-greater shareholders for foreign-source dividends, while permitting exemption on domestic dividends regardless of the size of the shareholding, was an impermissible restriction on the free movement of capital within the EU.
Similarly, in May 2008, the Advocate General opined that the Belgian dividends-received deduction (DRD) is incompatible with the EC Parent-Subsidiary Directive. The offense apparently was that the 95% DRD could not be claimed in a year when there were insufficient profits against which to use the DRD. Thus, in the case at hand (Cobelfret), dividends from other EU subsidiaries would be subject to double tax since the loss carryforward for the parent would be smaller than if the DRD were permitted.
In March 2007, in the Columbus Container Servicescase, the Advocate General opined against a portion of Germany's CFC rules known as the "switch-over clause." The switch-over clause provides for application of the credit method rather than the exemption method to avoid double taxation in respect of low-taxed passive income derived by a foreign permanent establishment (PE) of German resident taxpayers. The AG concluded that the switch-over clause constituted a restriction on both the freedom of establishment and the free movement of capital principles because it only applied where the corporate income tax burden in the PE country was lower than the German burden (as was the case at hand, dealing with a Belgian Coordination Center).
Also in March 2007, the ECJ rendered its decision in the Rewe Zentralfinanzcase, holding a German restriction on foreign subsidiary losses incompatible with the freedom of establishment principle of the EC Treaty. Under the German rules, German parent companies were allowed to write down the value of their shares in loss-making German subsidiaries but were restricted in writing down the value of shares of loss-making non-German subsidiaries. A limited exception to the rule was not applicable because the taxpayer did not meet the requirements for an "activity test." The court concluded that the activity test went beyond what is necessary to target purely artificial arrangements. While the decision has limited direct applicability due to German law changes since the years at issue, the decision puts into question all activity clauses applied under national laws of EU countries to cross-border situations.
In January 2008, the ECJ struck down a Belgian thin cap rule that reclassified excessive interest as a dividend. The offending rule provided that interest is reclassified as a dividend to the extent that a loan exceeds the sum of paid-up capital and taxable reserves. Unfortunately for Belgium, the reclassification was not mandated where the putative interest was paid to a director that is a Belgian company. In N.V. Lammers & Van Cleeff,the ECJ held that these provisions conflicted with the freedom of establishment principle.
While the ECJ has no real jurisdiction in such cases, the European Commission even occasionally reaches outside of the EU to try to force tax law changes (at least as regards treatment of EU-based companies). In February 2007, the Commission complained that certain Swiss cantonal tax regimes that favor holding and management companies (and that had succeeded in attracting the headquarters of some European multinationals) were a form of prohibited "state aid." Of course, Switzerland is not a member of the EU, so the concept of state aid in the form of lower taxes for special sorts of operations being prohibited under EU law was not applicable to the Swiss. The Commission justified its complaint, however, by claiming that the "state aid" violated the 1972 EU-Switzerland Free Trade Agreement. Since the FTA only addresses trade in certain goods, and does not address harmonization of company taxation, these claims also surprised the Swiss. This bit of overreaching on the part of the European Commission might also have dismayed free traders in other low-tax jurisdictions around the world, since such a claim surely will not encourage others to enter into free trade agreements with the EU without clarity that company income taxation is not mandated to be uniform.
The ECJ and the Advocate General seem to be moderately aggressive in deciding that various national tax rules are incompatible with the EC Treaty. They also seem to have been presented by taxpayers and national courts with a very large number of opportunities to so find. It also appears that national legislatures relatively quickly respond to these decisions, enacting changes to their countries' tax laws to fix the offending provisions within a short period of time. It also seems as though it is increasingly challenging for national legislatures within the EU to combat creative tax planning in ways other than those directed at clear abuses. Where European freedoms established by the EC Treaty may be infringed, scalpels must be wielded where once hatchets worked.
So, without Directives or EC-level legislation, the EU is moving closer and closer to income tax harmony. The EU judicial system, through the ECJ and the Advocate General, are actively pushing the disparate EU income tax systems much closer together. And, so far at least, there are no signs of any impending diplomatic, let alone military, reactions.
This commentary also will appear in the February 2009, issue of the Tax Management International Journal. For more information, in the Tax Management Portfolios, see Liebman, 999 T.M., Business Operations in the European Union.
1 17 U.S. 316 (1819) (overturning Maryland's statute taxing the Bank of the United States, "The power to tax is the power to destroy….").
2 Bloodbath is not hyperbole. Out of an 1860 total U.S. population of 31,440,000 (some 4 million of whom were slaves), approximately 620,000 soldiers died during the Civil War, a vastly higher percentage than in any American war before or since. Since military units were typically drawn from single localities, and since some units suffered horrific levels of casualties, the effects were often devastating. One regiment, the 26th North Carolina, lost 714 of its 800 men at Gettysburg -- in numbers and percentage terms the war's greatest losses.

The Best View of the Jemaa El Fna – Marrakech, Morocco
During the day the Jemaa El Fna is full of orange juice sellers, dancers, acrobats, snake charmers (if you want to avoid them like the plague as I did, it's easy as you'll hear the pipes that the men play before you see anything) and sad looking monkeys on chains used for photo opportunities. However at 4pm, the square magically starts to transform before your very eyes as it fills with food stalls ready for another busy evening.
I had always seen photos of an aerial view of the square and after doing some research I found out that the best view of the Jemaa El Fna is from Le Grand Balcon du Cafe Glacier.
I had to laugh at some people's reviews on Trip Advisor saying that they made you buy a drink before you were allowed out onto the balcony to see the view. Hello?! This is one of the best views in Marrakech so of course the owners want to capitalise on that and buying a soft drink is not going to break the bank is it? Anyway rant over.
As I had read that the balcony can get very busy, we arrived early at 3:30pm to ensure we got a good spot. At this time the cafe was empty and we did not need to buy a drink before entering as it was still quiet and we were shown to what probably was the best table there was as we got a good view of the entire square.
At exactly 4pm, tables and chairs and a myriad of other things began appearing from every direction in the square as the food stalls started being constructed ready for the evening ahead.
This time-lapse video filmed by the D-Man shows the transformation of the square.
As we had such a fantastic view, we decided to order food whilst we were there. We each had a tagine which was freshly cooked, delicious and served with a copious amount of bread and olives. Again they did not rush to serve us our food in order to try and free up what was the table with the best view in the house. And we had still not been presented with a bill at this point.
The cafe had started to get noticeably busier and they were now making people buy a drink before they could enter. Cue most people walking out onto the balcony with a mint tea – the cheapest thing on the menu! Really?!
We wanted another drink so I went to find our waiter to see if he would like us to pay for the drinks and the food now as it was getting so busy. He seemed offended that I asked and said we could pay when we left before handing me another two drinks. They really appreciated and respected us buying food as well as having more than one drink – which is the complete opposite to what most people do.
The cafe was at its busiest just before sunset as everyone was trying to get a good view. There was a couple of guys who started to try and move tables to set their tripods up and block other peoples view but they were quickly stopped and shouted at by the cafe owner.
We paid our bill as we left the cafe and our couple of hours spent sitting and enjoying one of the best views in Marrakech along with dinner and drinks came to a grand total of 190 Dirhams for the both of us – £14! What an absolute bargain and an amazing experience I'll never forget. I'd recommend it to anyone!

Torrance Hall is a 19 year old visual artist based in Richmond, Virginia.
Throughout my work I explore the relationship between the imagination, dreams and the everyday vision of human experiences with dark and fantastical narratives. With that I often touch on the idea of masculinity and the process of growth and development, from adolescence to adulthood. I began to experiment with self-portraiture at a young age and today its often used in the majority of my work to place myself in past experiences and replace the words I once had that I could not fathom.

Yogyakarta Sultanate or Kesultanan Yogyakarta is a monarchy in the province of Yogyakarta, Indonesia.
After Sultan Agung, the Sultanate of Mataram was declining due to power struggle within the sultanate. To make things worse, VOC (Dutch East India Company) exploited the power struggle to increase its control. At the peak of the conflict, the Mataram Sultanate was split in two based on the Treaty of Giyanti of February 13, 1755: Yogyakarta Sultanate and Surakarta Sultanate.
The Giyanti Treaty mentioned Pangeran Mangkubumi as Sultan of Yogyakarta with the title of Sampeyan Dalem Ingkang Sinuwun Kanjeng Sultan Hamengkubuwono Senopati Ingalaga Abdul Rakhman Sayidin Khalifatullah Panatagama(His Majesty, The Sultan-Carrier of the Universe, Chief Warrior, Servant of the Most Gracious, Cleric and Caliph that Safeguards the Religion).
During the era of Dutch occupation there are two principalities in the region, the Yogyakarta Sultanate (Kasultanan Yogyakarta) and the smaller Pakualaman Duchy / Principality (Kadipaten Pakualaman).
The Dutch Colonial Government in the past respected and referred to the authorities of those two principalities in carrying out their autonomous self government, arranged under a political contract. When the Indonesian independence was proclaimed, the ruler of both principalities, the Sultan of Yogyakarta and Prince of Pakualaman declared a statement that Yogyakarta Sultanate and Pakualaman Regency would become part of the Republic of Indonesia. Those two regions were unified to form the Yogyakarta Special Region and the sultan became the Governor of Yogyakarta and the Prince of Pakualaman as the vice-governor; both were responsible to the President of Indonesia. The Special Region of Yogyakarta was formally formed after the independence war ended and legalized on August 3, 1950.
In carrying out the local government administration it considers three principles: decentralization, deconcentration and assistance. The provincial government carries out the responsibilities and authorities of the central government, while on other hand carrying out its autonomous responsibilities and authorities. The Regional Government consists of the Head of the Region and the Legislative Assembly of the Region. Such construction guarantees good cooperation between the Head of Region and the Legislative Assembly of Region in order to achieve a sound regional government administration. The Head of the Special Region of Yogyakarta has got responsibility as the Head of the Territory and titled as a Governor.
The first Governor was the late Hamengkubuwono IX, Sultan of Yogyakarta and continued by HRH. Paku Alam VIII as acting governor until Hamengkubuwono X ascended in 1998. Unlike the other heads of regions in Indonesia, the governor of the Special Region of Yogyakarta has the privilege or special status of not being bound to the period of position nor the requirements and way of appointment. However, in carrying out their duties, they have the same authorizations and responsibilities.
The principal residence of the sultan is the kraton (palace), sometimes called the Yogyakarta Kraton but otherwise known in formal terms Kraton Ngayogyakarta Hadiningrat. When not performing in official ceremonies, the sultan's elephants are kept on short chains in the Kraton. This causes them to incessantly trash their heads from side to side in distress.

October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Breast cancer is the second most common kind of cancer in women. About 1 in 8 women born today in the United States will get breast cancer at some point.
The good news is that many women can survive breast cancer if it's found and treated early.
If you are a woman age 40 to 49, talk with your doctor about when to start getting mammograms and how often to get them.
If you are a woman age 50 to 74, be sure to get a mammogram every 2 years. You may also choose to get them more often.
Talk to a doctor about your risk for breast cancer, especially if a close family member of yours has had breast or ovarian cancer. Your doctor can help you decide when and how often to get mammograms.

What are STDs and how do they relate to HIV infection?
STD stands for "sexually transmitted disease." STDs are infections that are passed on through the close, intimate contact that usually accompanies sexual activities.
Some common STDs include the following
- Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)
HIV is the human immunodeficiency virus. It is the virus that can lead to acquired immune deficiency syndrome, or AIDS.
- Chlamydia
Chlamydia infection is a common sexually transmitted infection (STI) in humans caused by the bacterium Chlamydia trachomatis. The term Chlamydia infection can also refer to infection caused by any species belonging to the bacterial family Chlamydiaceae. Watch Dr. Amanda explaining about Chlamydia's cause and symptoms.
For those who have the symptoms which are non-specific, should seek proper diagnosis before getting treatment.
- Trichomoniasis ("Trich")
Trichomoniasis is a genital infection caused by a parasite. It prefers to live in the vagina, but can also live in the urethra (inside the penis) in men. Most women do not have symptoms, however, some women may have a frothy, yellowish vaginal discharge, genital itching or vulval pain. Symptoms are rare in men but it may cause pain on urinating. Trichomonas can be transmitted by vaginal sex without using condoms withsomeone who has the infection.
- Gonorrhea
Gonorrhea is a sexually transmitted disease (STD). Gonorrhea is caused by Neisseria gonorrhoeae, a bacterium that can grow and multiply easily in the warm, moist areas of the reproductive tract, including the cervix (opening to the womb), uterus (womb), and fallopian tubes (egg canals) in women, and in the urethra (urine canal) in women and men. The bacterium can also grow in the mouth, throat, eyes, and anus.
- Human papilloma virus (HPV)
HPV is the most common sexually transmitted infection (STI). HPV is a different virus than HIV and HSV (herpes). HPV is so common that nearly all sexually active men and women get it at some point in their lives. There are many different types of HPV. Some types can cause health problems including genital warts and cancers. But there are vaccines that can stop these health problems from happening
- Genital herpes
Herpes is a very contagious disease, and is easily spread through contact with the affected area. Herpes can be transmitted not only through sexual intercourse, but also through oral and anal sex with your partner who might not even know or show no signs of herpes. Herpes can be treated but can not be cured and once infected the virus stays in skin and nerve cells for life. Condoms can help reduce the risk against Herpes however condoms only protect certain area that they cover. Most of the time it is dormant and causes no symptoms, but from time to time it can flare up. This tends to happen when the immune system is weakened, in situations of stress, during a cold or on exposure to strong ultraviolet light, even in people without HIV. Such attacks occur more frequently in children and the elderly, since these groups tend to have less efficient immune systems than adults.
- Syphilis
Syphilis is a sexually transmitted disease (STD) caused by the bacterium Treponema pallidum. It has often been called "the great imitator" because so many of the signs and symptoms are indistinguishable from those of other diseases.
- Hepatitis B infection
Hepatitis B virus (often known as HBV, but to avoid possible confusion with HIV, this abbreviation isn't used in this booklet) is an infection that can cause severe damage to your liver, sometimes resulting in death.
- Hepatitis C infection
Hepatitis C, although unrelated to hepatitis B, often causes similar symptoms. Sexual transmission of hepatitis C is less common but does occur. It is more likely to happen if you also have another sexually transmitted infection (STI). Also, anal or rough sex is more likely to pass on the infection. Oral sex is of low risk. The virus is present in saliva, but kissing is not usually a risk unless both partners have cuts in the mouth or bleeding gums.
Understanding the risk
If you have ever had an STD, you may have been exposed to HIV as well, and should consider getting tested for HIV.
If you currently have an STD, you need to see a medical provider as soon as possible. Having an STD causes the skin to break down and can increase the risk of getting HIV, or passing HIV to others if an HIV-infected person has an STD. STDs also can cause problems of their own, which can range from minor and annoying in nature to serious and life-threatening. Some STDs can be present without causing symptoms. Therefore, if you think you are at risk of contracting STDs, you should be tested routinely for both HIV and STDs, even if you have no symptoms.
Protect yourself
Taking steps to protect yourself from HIV, such as using condoms and other latex barriers if you are having sex, will also provide protection against many other STDs. Some STDs (such as herpes and genital or anal warts), however, can still be passed by skin-to-skin contact during sex even if you are taking steps to protect yourself from HIV.

(Gothenburg, Sweden – October 9, 2017) Luxbright AB, a Swedish nanotechnology based X-ray tube developer, has validated key technology to create an alternative method for producing brighter X-ray beams while reducing dose exposure and increasing image quality. The €3.2mm EU funded project, ColdNano-X, aims at utilizing the latest cutting edge science and nanomaterials to offer a better, safer and more effective solution for security at airports and other high-risk locations around the world. This means a game changing reinvention in the world of X-ray systems.
"The support from the European Union has allowed our inventor, Dr. Hu and his R&D team to make breakthroughs in validating the technology behind our high brilliance X-ray beams. This may enable a whole new era of advanced imaging. From airport security or non-destructive testing to medical imaging, high brilliance X-rays can be both a leap forward in safety and game changing resolution enhancement at very small scales." -Greg Carson, CEO
Current airport checkpoints were developed in the 1970's. Although new technology has been implemented, the current procedures and technology still fails to detect 50% of threats and/or prohibited items. There are also critical problems with "false positives" – as high as 54% at Frankfurt airport – and for detecting dangerous weapons, chemicals, and explosives. (ProPublica)
There is a €3bn market opportunity for X-ray sources globally, which is constantly growing in importance. Luxbright's X-ray tubes are attractive across several sectors (security, medical imaging, and non-destructive testing) by offering significantly better microfocus, built-in cooling and extremely efficient power usage.
To date, Luxbright has raised €3.5mm in capital including the €1.9mm from H2020. They are in the process of seeking a Series A investment. The company has made rapid progress forward in the past 12 months. Luxbright's High brilliance X-ray tubes are in operation with strategic partners, customers, and testing laboratories. The company has been evolving its research and development and testing in cooperation with key university and corporations. Additionally, the company has brought in top talent for R&D, Production, Supply Chain, and Marketing.
The Luxbright Coldnano-X innovation will be a unique solution that allows for precise X-ray imaging without bulky components, compromising energy consumption or cost.
"Imagine a world where X-rays are safe and portable enough to be in the back of any police car or ambulance. That is the future we see approaching" -Greg Carson, CEO
About Horizon 2020

Boston Masters in Sociology on Campus Programs | Campus Sociology Masters Degrees
Masters in Sociology on Campus Degree Programs have different options that might interest students who want to study social behavior and human society. Earning a masters degree in Sociology may be considered a versatile degree that might prepare students for a variety of potential careers in research, business, education, law, public policy and social work.
Masters in Sociology on Campus Programs Overview
Whether you are pursuing the degree as support for further doctoral studies, or as an end degree, the two main types of Sociology masters programs are the MA (Master of Arts) or an MS (Master of Science) in Sociology. Students can find both thesis and non-thesis options. The traditional masters programs in sociology prepare students to pursue their PhD in sociology, while the Applied, clinical, and professional masters programs prepare students to enter the workplace, either as research sociologists or in other careers where they can apply their knowledge. Common entry prerequisites include a Bachelor's degree, letters of recommendation, and minimum GPA requirements, although students should check with their graduate school about the protocol.
Why Choose a Campus-based Masters Program in Sociology
Choosing a graduate school is a great option for students who are motivated with hands-on learning and real-time interactions. Campus programs offer students the opportunity to participate in college life, network, and use the university's facilities, such as libraries and laboratories. If this sounds exciting to you, initiate a location search on GradSchools.com to review Masters of Sociology programs; use the city, state or country tabs to browse choices. Some of the listings might include Child and Family Law MSW/MJ Dual Degree, Master of Arts in Counseling and Human Development, MA in Sociology or MA in Social Sciences.
Master of Arts in Sociology Potential Coursework
A Masters in Sociology on Campus degree program may feature coursework in classical and contemporary social theory, statistics and sociological research methods. This training prepares students to analyze and draw conclusions from sociological questions in education, medicine and law.
Depending on the focus of their program, students in Sociology master's programs might study topics such as

I'm a sound addict. Even as I write about silence now, I've got Paganini blasting in my study! But yesterday morning in church during one of our silences, I became aware of how corporate a labor such public silence is. Everyone works to be quiet. People stop moving their bulletins or looking for something in their purse. There's no movement. We, together, hear the silence. It engulfs us. It enhances our unity. It is something we all do together. Together we consider what we've just heard. Together we contribute to each other's space to think.
–Mark Dever, "Making Silence Together"

This day was to celebrate disability; support disability rights and promote the integration of people with disabilities in society. It was celebrated with HUGE community event at the Sandema 'Grand Durbar' grounds in the town centre with many dignitaries and Disabled People's Organisation in attendance
The theme of the day was: "Break Barriers, Open Doors: for an inclusive society and development for all" What a fitting and welcoming theme it was indeed; one that was hoped by all attendee's, people will carry forward and put into practice throughout the rest of their lives!
The event started with an incredibly diverse and vibrant of 200+ people through Sandema Town holding up many meaningful posters and banners like:
Disability is not Inability
International Disability Day 2013
Jobs for Disabled
Justice for all
The march concluded in the durbar grounds which led to a smooth transition onto the beginning of the day's events. The M.C. for the day, Timothy, took the microphone and introduced the Suwansa drumming group. They put on a wonderful performance for the large crowd; many of whom got up to dance!
The program began with a short opening prayer by local pastor Michael Gumah. Following this, many dignitaries in attendance took to the stage to give their meaningful speeches. Dignitaries in attendance included;
- · Keynote speaker, the Deputy Regional Minister for the Upper East Region, Daniels Syme
- · The Assembly woman for Kobdema (the area where CBR is based in Sandema), Grace Abayiak
- · Chief of Siniesi and Chairman of the day, Afulang Apaikgiak
- · Coordinator of the Sandema PCBR project, Maxwell Akandem
- · Upper Presbytry Chairman of the Presbyterian Church of Ghana, Esmond Nagba
- · Head of the Sandema DPO and local schoolteacher, Gilbert
- · The National Director for Development and Social Services
- · The District Chief Executive
After these incredibly inspiring and heartwarming speeches from the dignitaries, a disabled student from Sandema Techical Senior High School, David, performed an amazing break dance routine for the pleasure of the crowd. It was a phenomenal performance which was warmly received by all present. Following this the Sandema DPO put on a short singing and dancing performance for the crowd. After this a drama skit was performed by children from the 'St. John's Integrated School' in Navrongo. The performance was about communication barriers between the deaf and others in society. The narrator explains that sign language is a language which can be used to communicate and even learn in, just like regular speech. It was short but a very meaningful, educative performance.
Keynote speaker, the Deputy Regional Minister for the Upper East Region, Daniels Syme officially launched the 'New Era' soap. New Era soap is handcrafted by women from the Sandema Disabled People's Organization using locally sourced products. Mr Syme launched the soap with an incredibly generous purchase of 30 cedi's worth! Encouraging the assembly to do the same, this is the best way to promote something. Our bishop then gave a wonderful oratory and prayer over the soap, giving it a blessing from God. The 'New Era' had officially started and the stall was busy for the next 30 minutes!
Chairman of the day, Aflulang Apaikgiak concluded the day with one final repeat of the theme, asking everyone to "remember our dear brothers and sisters!" He was joined by Maxwell who gave one final thank you to all the honorable guests and a special thank you to all the staff and International Service volunteers who made the day a huge success. :)

This article from Windpower Monthly contains some impressive figures relating to the size of the new Enercon 7.5MW wind turbine. The largest Continue Reading
Wind Turbine Siting – The nature of the Surrounding Site
Your surrounding landscape will have features which will determine wind speed and wind turbine siting. Landscape features, from relatively smooth surfaces such as freshly mown grass, through to meadows, bushes, tress and dense woodland, will all have the effect of slowing down the wind. These effects are accounted for by applying correcting factors to the AMWS (Annual average mean wind speed). To evaluate your site we apply 1 of 5 terrain categories, considered over a distance 1 km from the turbine(s):
Category 1
Flat grassland, parkland or bare soil, without any hedges and only a few isolated obstructions.
Category 2
Gently undulating countryside, fields with crops, fences or low boundary hedges and few trees.
Category 3
Farmland with high boundary hedges, occasional small farm structures, houses and trees etc.
Category 4
Woodland or low rise urban/suburban areas (e.g. domestic housing) with a plan area density of up to about 20%.
Category 5
Dense urban areas and city centres (e.g. buildings of four-stories or higher) with a plan area density of greater than about 20%.
The Micro generation Certification Scheme (MCS) is an internationally recognised quality assurance scheme supported by the Department of Energy and Climate Change. MCS certifies micro generation technologies used to produce electricity and heat from renewable sources. MCS installation guidance for good wind turbine siting practice applies to all sites and can be viewed in full by clicking the link here.
If you have a potential site for generating electricity using wind power, and have any questions about wind turbine siting, please contact us for a discussion. We are able to use online maps and ordinance survey data to assist you on making the decision as to whether or not to pursue your wind turbine project.
