Giant comet almost obliterated all human life in 1883
In August of 1883, an astronomer in Mexico named José Bonilla spotted hundreds of fuzzy objects passing in front of the sun that nobody could explain. A new analysis of these observations suggests that what Bonilla saw was anywhere from a billion to a trillion tons of comet passing as close as a few hundred miles from the surface of the Earth.
At the time, Bonilla had no idea what he was looking at. All he knew was that over a period of about two days, he counted about 450 objects surrounded by fuzziness passing between his telescope and the sun. Contemporary astronomers didn't see anything, and when Bonilla published a paper in an astronomical journal a few years later, the journal editor suggested that Bonilla must have accidentally been counting birds or bugs or something like that.
As it turns out, it may not have been bugs. It may have been the remnants of an immense comet that narrowly missed completely destroying our entire civilization that nobody else saw because it was so freakin' close to us. Based on Bonilla's account of the size and number of the objects and the length of time that they were visible, modern astronomers have been able to estimate what the original size of the comet probably was, and just how close all of its fragments came to Earth. The numbers are shocking: each of the 450 fragments probably ranged in size from 150 feet to a solid mile across, and the upper limit on the size of the original comet (before it broke up) is something like nine trillion tons.
Let's just put a few trillion tons of fragmented comet in perspective, shall we? We're talking about an object with a mass that's equivalent to at least eight Halley's comets. And if you're wondering what would happen if a couple-hundred-foot wide comet fragments made it through Earth's atmosphere, we're pretty sure it happened over Sibera back in 1908, resulting in an explosion approximately equal to the detonation of a moderately-sized thermonuclear weapon. Nobody was around to experience the blast, but a few trees did get knocked over. And by a few, I mean 80 million.
Now, keep in mind that those 450 objects that Bonilla counted over two days only come from a few hours of observations, and extrapolating his objects per hour out over two days, we get over 3,000 cometary fragments. So take that type of fun little thermonuclear-equivalent destructive experience, and imagine it happening thousands of times all over the Earth in a period of a day or two. Yeah, we're talking the equivalent of global thermonuclear war, except way, way worse. Odds of humanity (or much in the way of any other plants or animals) surviving the bombardment and the climate change that would follow is not good, not good at all.
The really scary part is just how close this comet came to hitting the Earth: since only Bonilla saw the fragments and no other astronomers did, that means that it had to be close to us. Very close. Very, seriously, it's not even funny close. The minimum distance that the fragments passed was calculated to be about 400 miles from the Earth's surface, which is nothing. That's only 150 miles or so above the International Space Station. If the comet had been in a slightly different orbit, or had broken up at a slightly different time, as of about a hundred years ago, our entire civilization might have ceased to exist.

In virtually every area of legal practice, some rudimentary knowledge about the laws governing business organizations (and particularly corporations) proves helpful. This 4-unit survey course provides much of that orientation, examining the laws governing the modern business organization (with an emphasis on corporations). We will cover a number of topics, including rules of agency law, partnership law, corporate formation, corporate identity, rights of creditors, fiduciary duties, corporate governance, executive compensation, mergers and acquisitions and securities fraud. At core, this is a survey course, so many of the topics we will discuss also have specialized courses offering a more detailed treatment. Consequently, our key goal will be to understand the rudimentary structure of each topic, and how the topics interrelate and in particular how corporate law regulates relationships among multiple different constituencies of the firm, including owners, managers, creditors, employees, customers, and suppliers. Viewed in this light, the governance of a corporation implicates the same challenges and concerns that affect any multi-party economic relationship, ranging from problems of collective action, free riding, private information, distribution and opportunism. The laws governing business organizations constitute an important set of rules, institutions, and practices that regulate and address these concerns.
Students must have had a course in contract law (either prior or concurrent to enrollment). For LLMs who have not taken the course, a foreign contract law course will suffice, or consent of instructor based i
on sufficient practice experience in similar fields.

Derrick Rose should have a higher basketball IQ when he returns
BY JOE COWLEY firstname.lastname@example.com March 30, 2013 8:14PM
Carlos Boozer works against the Mavericks' Dirk Nowitzki in the first half Saturday. He had 25 points and 11 rebounds in the Bulls' loss. | Michael Mulvey~AP

DALLAS — Considering all the jumpers Derrick Rose has shot during his rehabilitation from surgery to repair the torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee, the Bulls are counting on him to be an improved scoring threat from the outside when he returns.
But if there's another positive to come out of all the sitting and waiting for his return, it's that Rose has been sitting and watching. If Rose's basketball acumen was off the charts before the injury, where will it be when he comes back?
''You just learn how the game runs, see what the coaches like to call offensively and defensively when you're playing in certain play sets,'' Rose said when asked what he has been picking up from watching games from the locker room. ''What a coach's move is against certain teams. Does the offense stay the same? Defense stay the same? It's basically learning everybody's tendencies.''
And he's not learning quietly, either. Rose is like another coach for his teammates, especially when they return to the locker room for halftime.
''You have to be a leader on the team,'' Rose said. ''When the guys come in the locker room, I tell them what I see. It's up to them to take the information and run with it. If not, they just go about their business. But they're always going to hear me.''
As far as the latest about when Rose might return this season, it was status quo Saturday against the Mavericks. Rose was out, and coach Tom Thibodeau was vague about the matter.
''As long as he continues to improve, that's all we're concerned with,'' Thibodeau said. ''When he gets comfortable, he'll get out there.''
A 'non-issue'
Thibodeau acknowledged he still hasn't signed the four-year, $17.5 million contract extension the Bulls announced Oct. 1, but he put the blame on the lawyers handling the ''language'' of the deal.
''Total non-issue,'' Thibodeau said. ''The lawyers had it tied up for a while, whatever it is that they do. I don't know what these lawyers do. Something about language or something. I just got it back, and as soon as I get an opportunity, [general manager Gar Forman] will have it.''
On the mend
Marco Belinelli (strained abdomen) missed his third consecutive game and Joakim Noah (plantar fasciitis in right foot) his fourth in a row against the Mavericks, but Thibodeau said both were close to returning, especially Belinelli.
''Both guys are improving,'' Thibodeau said. ''Marco is very close, but we just want to make sure. We want to be playing our best and we want to be as healthy as possible going down the stretch. So if that means one more day, two more days, so be it.''

Volunteers in Queens say they are dedicated to lending a hand to Hurricane Sandy victims in one of the hardest hit corners of the city. NY1's Natasha Ghoneim filed the following report.
While volunteers ripped the insulation from the walls of their Breezy Point home, the Scarinos were experiencing deja vu.
Two years ago, their summer escape was torn down to the studs during a massive renovation project.
"So we're doing it again," said Marianne Scarino. "We're experienced."
Day in and day out, in Breezy Point and in other neighborhoods now known for the devastation inflicted by Hurricane Sandy, the recovery continues. It's measured in the waterlogged belongings that form a wall around the homes they came from. It's measured by the stripping down to the frames to purge the mold. And it's measured in sheer exhaustion.
"We're used to hard work," Marianne Scarino said. "It's just that we're getting old and it gets harder."
For the first time in three weeks, the Scarinos received help from volunteers from Operation Blessing International. What they accomplished in a short amount of time saved the couple half a day's work.
"We live in New York City. We're trying to solve these great huge problems but there are people here in our backyard who just need a helping hand," said Annie Liang, a volunteer. "I just felt like it should matter to us."
"Not one individual can rebuild a community, but if we unify and work together, we can take over Breezy Point and make it a completely better place for these individuals and to give them the hope for the future," said Jennifer Wakefield of Operation Blessing International.
The Scarinos are aware of the risks lurking in the future.
"It's a scary thought," Marianne Scarino said. "The planet is changing and the sand bar is moving. We have to think about what we're going to do."
But they can't or won't think that far ahead. For now, they and their neighbors are preoccupied with rebuilding as quickly as possible.

"Flowers last only so long. If the flowers of a specific plant are to last four weeks and you buy one in full bloom it may fade in one week, if [the flowers] have been open for three weeks already. Always choose a blooming plant with one or two unopened buds, as then you know the flowers will last their full span."-- orchidnick

Giving him his 15 minutes
The Times Online.
On one hand be all concerned and report on the hurt and harm airing the video the little prick made, on the other hand grab the viewers who want to watch it. So the next sad loser who can't make it with a real flesh and blood woman knows his masturbatory message will be aired to one and all, while the media can bask in the glow of self righteous anger and more advertising. I believe it was Sir John Junor who coined the phrase that there was more honour in being the piano player in a brothel than being a gutter journalist

The two teams traveled over 800 combined miles to meet at a neutral site and play for the fourth time for a chance to keep their season alive. Concordia-St. Paul led the season series 2-1 after sweeping the Vikings in the regular season, but Augustana dropped the Golden Bears in the NSIC Tournament semifinals en route to their first ever conference title.
In the first two meetings, the Vikings were held to several season-lows and Alex Feeney struggled to put points of the board, just averaging 5.3 in the three games against CU. That was not the case tonight. Whether it was offensive rebounds and putbacks or stepping out for a timely 3-pointer, Feeney was feeling it.
The senior forward didn't want her season end and neither did the group of seniors that had played in a combined 466 games entering tonight as they finished 20-for-39 from the field and 47 points including five 3-pointers. Feeney led the way with 20 points and Tinklenberg and Nelson poured in 11 and 10, respectively.
Almost more a story of the game than the senior showcase may have been the offensive rebounds leading to second chance points. The Vikings corralled 18 offensive boards and turned those into 25 second chance points. On the whole, Augustana outrebounded the Golden Bears 40-25.
Andrea Whitney was a major catalyst in the Vikings' showing on the glass; the sophomore center grabbed 10 boards, four on the offensive side and often kicked them out to open shooters. Tinklenberg and Feeney finished with seven boards apiece, and a combined seven offensive rebounds.
The Vikings owned a largest lead of 22 points with 5:50 left in the game, but Concordia-St. Paul still shot remarkably well against a stout Viking defense. CU finished with 24-53 from the field for 45.3 percent. This is the first time Augustana has allowed a team to shoot over 40 percent on the season.
Tinklenberg hit a three just 15 seconds into the game giving a good indicator for the Vikings, but Carissa Wolyniec answered with a triple of her own. The Vikings struggled to keep up with the surprising scoring attack from Concordia-St. Paul in the early minutes of the game.
Kionda Nicks averaged 3.3 points in the first three meetings with the Vikings, but the Concordia-St. Paul forward opened the game with four quick ones early to spark the Golden Bears' early run. Nicks finished with 12 points, one shy of her career mark. Anika Whiting then took over the scoring load with six quick points to continue the early CU dominance.
A pair of offensive rebounds led to five points for Concordia-St. Paul and their lead reached 18-8 with 13:51 left in the first, but the rest of the half was all Augustana. The Vikings used a flurry of offensive rebounds, clutch shooting and defensive pressure to ignite a 28-8 run to end the half.
Feeney exploded offensively hitting an array of shots while Tinklenberg outhustled the Golden Bears by grabbing offensive rebounds and finishing putbacks. The Vikings also turned up the defensive pressure.
The Vikings forced eight turnovers in a stretch lasting just over 10 minutes while going on a 17-0 run for themselves. The Vikings held CU to 0-7 shooting from the field in that 17-0 stretch while Augustana had five different Vikings score.
Whiting hit a pair of free throws to stop the run, but Emily Schulte hit a 3-pointer with five seconds left on the clock to put a damper over the Golden Bears' first-half comeback attempt.
The second half was much more evenly played but Augustana converted easy baskets and shot 61.5 percent to ensure their trip to the semifinals would happen. Nelson scored eight of her 10 points in the second stanza and Feeney matched her first half mark with 10 points in the second half as well.
For the first eight minutes of the second half, the Vikings and Golden Bears traded baskets and the Augustana lead fluctuated between seven and 12 points. But the Vikings wanted to make a statement and sparked another scoring binge to finish CU's tournament hopes.
Augustana senior and reserve leading scorer Cami Koehn buried consecutive threes to cap off five straight possessions in which the Vikings hit a field goal. Feeney then hit a layup and Schulte followed with a pair of free throws pushing the Vikings to their largest lead of the game at 22 points with 5:50 remaining.
The Vikings held a double-digit lead in the first meeting between these two teams which resulted in and Augustana loss, but this lead had the insurmountable feel to it. Schulte's swipe and score with 3:38 left was the last time the Vikings were up 22 points.
Concordia-St. Paul reeled off seven straight points but the clock had become more of an enemy than the Vikings were at the time. Free throws littered the final minute and a half of the game, but the Vikings hit enough to arrive at the final score, 78-66.
Augustana's next opponent will be decided in the second quarterfinal between No. 2 seed Central Missouri and No. 7 seed Southwestern Oklahoma State. The semifinal game will take place at 5 p.m. tomorrow.

National Employee Development Center
This course is designed to prepare staffs with the skills needed to successfully identify and delineate wetlands on agricultural properties using On-Site Wetland Delineation Methods as specified in the National Food Security Act Manual (NFSAM), and to effectively defend the delineation decision. This training presents the balance reached by NRCS between the requirements in the statute/regulations and accepted scientific principles behind on-site wetland delineation methods using the three-factor approach. Topics include interpretation of wetland vegetation, soils, hydrology, and selection of sampling methods, sampling intensity, data analysis, and decision making. Participants will receive considerable practice delineating wetlands in the field. Completion of this course fulfills a critical training aspect related to the qualification requirement specified in the NFSAM for individuals performing Wetland Delineation for NRCS.
This course is divided into two parts: (1.) a self-paced, on-line tutorial and (2) an on-site classroom/field training.
On-line: The on-line training addresses basic wetland principles, terms, and related NRCS activities. Participants may need on-the-job training or assistance from experienced employees to complete this part of the course.
Classroom and Field: Participants will complete the course by attending a classroom/field session presented by an interdisciplinary team. Students will be exposed to wetland delineation challenges common to lands associated with agricultural operations.
Students will be able to:
1. Identify the wetland laws, regulations, and programs effecting NRCS and their clients.
2. Compare the differences among federal wetland determination methods, based on the purpose of the request.
3. Interpret the scientific foundations for wetland delineation, including vegetation, soils and hydrology.
4. Apply the NFSAM On-Site Delineation Methods in field situations.
5. Determine the appropriate sampling and data analysis methods.
6. Demonstrate the appropriate required decision thresholds for hydric soils, hydrophytic vegetation, and wetland hydrology.

Cloning Pokemon and items for Pocket Monsters DiamondHome / Nintendo DS /
This page contains Pocket Monsters Diamond Glitches for Nintendo DS called "Cloning Pokemon and items" and has been posted or updated on Jan 7, 2008 by jayiszebest. Let us know what you think of this Glitch by thumbs voting.

- ESRB: Everyone
Cloning Pokemon and items
For this you will need nintendo Wi-fi and can take some time to get the hang of but don't worry if it doesn't work, it's more luck than judgement.
Have the pokemon/item you want to clone in your box and go to the pokemon GTS - enter it and click deposit pokemon, choose the pokemon you want for it (something no one will have) and put it up for trade - look at the little clock on the screen and see how many times it goes around. Withdraw your pokemon and do the same again except one tick of the clock before it will put it up for trade, turn your DS off immediately, turn your DS back on and you should have an error code, this is normal, go back on GTS and withdraw your pokemon, now check your box, you should have 2 of the pokemon and/or items, if it still says deposit you have done too soon and if you have done it too late you will only have one, keep trying.

Having accomplished the majority of my boy-on-girl action in my teens and set up shop in lesbianland soon after that, I haven't needed to put much serious thought into semen besides "Spit or swallow?" and "Please don't fertilize me!"
So when a reader (let's go with the theme and call him "Captain") asked me if I know "what supplements or general dietary content lead to more semen production," my first reaction was to abandon his email in my Inbox. Blame all the cunnilingus, or maybe it's just my aversion to mushy food textures (I wouldn't eat yogurt for a million), but I felt intimidated. Writing about getting men off? Totally! Writing about the stuff that comes out when they do? Hmm....
Well, my internal sex writer conscience and my love of a good puzzle kept bringing me back to the semen. Like you, Captain, I rose to the occasion. And... maybe unlike you, Captain... a lot of stuff came out of it.
So let's talk semen. Sticky, bitter and sheet-staining, many might wonder why you'd want more of the stuff. But this is a common desire for many men. As with the social-sexual ideal that the bigger a woman's breasts the better, plentiful ejaculation has become equated with libido, fertility and sexual prowess.
It makes sense that those ejaculating lesser volumes may feel their ego's volume decreasing as well. Also, the more stuff you've got, the more pleasurable contractions it takes to get it out, meaning more ejaculate equals better orgasms for some.
If this is about baby-making, the volume of your ejaculate doesn't necessarily say much about your sperm. The Mayo Clinic's website tells me that fertility is all about sperm quantity, quality and motility, not about semen volume. One exception is if you're experiencing "dry orgasms," climaxes that direct ejaculate back through the bladder instead of through the head of the penis. Though this isn't harmful, it can indicate that you aren't producing enough sperm to justify expelling it, something to check with your doctor about. For healthier sperm, turn to multivitamins, fruits and vegetables, good stress management and physical exercise while avoiding things like tobacco, alcohol and prolonged stays in hot tubs (mayoclinic.com).
If this is solely an ejaculate vanity project, Captain, I'm sure your research (like my own) has resulted in quick-fix pills proclaiming things like "Engulf her in semen!" which should tip you off that these usually result in a load of crap rather than a load of cum.
There are much healthier (though not exactly guaranteed) ways to load up. Firstly, ejaculate is mostly water, so stay hydrated, avoiding dehydrating alcohol and caffeine, which not only dry you out but makes ejaculate taste bitter. Some causes of decreased semen are uncontrollable, like hereditary trends and age. Rumors have it that nutritional supplements like zinc, L-arginine, L-lysine, L-carnitine and lecithin and good fats like Omega-3 can supe up your semen, but maintaining a healthy, balanced diet will get you these nutrients and more.
Staying physically fit is always positive for your sex life, but in this case, a workout's resulting blood circulation along with PC muscles exercises can pump up your volume. PC exercises tone the pubococcygeus muscles in the pelvic floor that are responsible for pleasurable contractions during orgasm and the power behind your ejaculate. For a basic exercise, stop and start your flow of urine, or try to slightly lift the shaft of the penis by flexing your muscles.
How and when you ejaculate also contributes. Though depriving yourself for weeks won't result in a continuously built-up explosion, ejaculating more than once daily without a break could decrease its volume. Rushing to the finish line can also result in lesser loads and weaker orgasms. Explore Tantric practices like building up towards climax and then backing off, using lots of teasing and your favorite turnons to keep you alert and focused. Not only will your eventual orgasm be stronger, but it may also be more... productive. For more on PC muscles and Tantric practices, read The Multi-Orgasmic Man by Mantak Chia and Douglas Abrams.

Did you know that eating seafood twice a week can help prevent heart disease? Add these healthy and easy fish recipes to your family's dinner menu and enjoy fresh dishes featuring cod, halibut, pollock, salmon, and sole.
Eating seafood at least twice a week can help protect against heart disease, according to the USDA 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans. To keep hearts healthy, the USDA recommends eating 8 ounces of seafood per week, which is equivalent to two 4-ounce servings.
Here are 4 ways you can add delicious, heart-healthy seafood to your family's diet:
—Choose seafood such as pollock, cod, halibut, sole, king and snow crab, black cod, and salmon, which offer nutritional benefits such as heart-healthy omega-3s.
—Prepare seafood so it's lean and flavorful by using healthy cooking methods such as grilling, roasting, or baking, and skip calorie- and fat-laden methods such as frying, breading, or adding rich sauces.
—Add flavor using spices and fresh or dried herbs as seasonings.
—Serve seafood with healthful sides, such as whole grains, roasted vegetables, and crisp greens.
Here are 5 easy and healthy fish recipes to try on your family:
Moroccan-Style Cod with Mango-Carrot Slaw
This cod recipe features Moroccan spices like saffron, cinnamon, and allspice, which pairs nicely with a refreshing mango-carrot slaw featuring flavors such as cilantro, lime, and honey. It's a healthy family dinner that's ready in about 35 minutes.
Warm Halibut Potato Salad with Green Onion Dijon Dressing
This quick and healthy salad recipe stars halibut, potatoes, red bell peppers, and mandarin oranges atop a bed of arugula with a warm dressing made of green onions, orange juice, and Dijon mustard. It's ready in 30 minutes and serves up to 6 people.
Salmon Penne with Green Beans Vinaigrette
This recipe for salmon with green beans and whole-wheat pasta serves five people and is ready in less than 30 minutes. Add some fresh thyme and lemon zest and you have a healthy, quick, and easy seafood dish for your family's next weeknight meal.
Sole Capri
In this classic Italian fish dish, sole fillets are paired with fresh basil and sun-dried tomatoes and topped with an easy white wine sauce. Best of all: It's ready in 15 minutes!
Easy Baked Thai Salmon
This easy-to-make Thai salmon dish, which features soy, sesame, and ginger flavors, is recommended by a certified nutrition coach who specializes in autoimmune disorders and thyroid conditions.

Spanish non-disclosure no-nos

THE potential cost of non-disclosure of overseas assets by expats who are officially resident in Spain could be more than the value of the assets themselves.
Under new rules which took effect on January 1, any assets held overseas with a value of €50,000 or more need to be declared by March 31 2013 to avoid the risk of receiving a heavy fine.
For example, an undisclosed investment of €200,000 would be taxed at 52% (€104,000).
But the penalty could be up to an eye-watering 150% of the tax, a further €156,000, which would not only wipe out your investment but leave you owing the tax office a further €60,000.
On that basis non-disclosure is simply not worth the risk.
If you have several different offshore bank accounts all with a balance under the €50,000 threshold, be warned.
If collectively the balances exceed that figure, you are required to disclose account numbers and details of the balances as of December 31 2012, or the average balance over the last three months of the year if that figure is higher.
The different asset classes that the new legislation applies to are: cash on deposit, real estate, stocks & shares and collective investments.
If you are named as the beneficiary to any trusts, these amounts will also need to be declared as the Spanish legal system does not recognise trusts as having a legal status of their own.
The Spanish tax authorities are clamping down on non-disclosure of worldwide assets by tax residents and so there is no time to delay in dealing with the matter.
You should speak to your tax adviser in Spain to ensure that you are fully compliant with these requirements.
These new requirements should also focus your attention on whether your investments are held in the most appropriate way.
For example, if you have money on deposit, which you do not need on a regular basis for capital or income, then the interest you earn as a Spanish tax resident should be declared and tax paid on it.
However, by investing in a smarter way, you can avoid the need to pay any tax until such time as you need to draw down some of the money.
This is not complicated financial planning but simply using some tried and tested tax compliant methods, which are designed to defer tax until you make a withdrawal.

Why don't the spanish start with taxing their own, people who have never paid any tax? I'm off.

Another reason to buy a nice little place in the Cotswalds. Honestly, living in Spain now is a hassle and you'll be jumping through hoops forever if you live here.

Europe ….& the world is a smaller place..Than it was and authorities are in touch with each other…. BEWARE…!
I recall being summoned to Hacienda some years ago about IVA / VAT for an offshore client…. I denied etc… the Spanish hacienda man quietly angled his computer screen at me and showed me that the information was clearly visible for me to see …the site he was linked to was… HM Customs & Excice….believe me there is nowhere to run these days-or at least it is getting harder and harder….
March 15th, 2013 7:22 pm
The deadline for 2012 declarations is 30 April 2013, as this is the first year of the new legislation.
Matilda:- The new law applies to all residents including Spanish citizens, but just you run back home to jolly old Blighty. Same goes for Fred!

My accountant has done all my declarations, but thanks for thinking of me Bill. These new laws clearly signal that Spain will soon be bringing in a new wealth tax. Should go down lovely with all the expats and drive even more people away from Spain. Just what they need.
March 16th, 2013 9:51 am
All those who are moaning about the new regs. obviously know nothing about taxation in other EU countries or deliberately are'nt mentioning it because it destroys their argument.
AFAIK only Belgium and Spain don't tax capital gains – my info comes from a Belgian who used to work at the European Commission and his wife who works in risk management in a big Euro bank.
So Spain is at last coming into line, it can't be long before the virtually bankrupt Belgium joins as well.
As to the comments about 'chasing business away' this is complete rubbish. I used to live in the Netherlands (79/81 and a standing joke was 'who has the longest arms in the whole world' answer – the Dutch taxman who quite rightly taxes worldwide income and profits. The Netherlands happens to be one of the richest countries in the world, which destroys this stupid argument Same goes for Norway which did'nt squander it's oil and gas wealth but created a sovereign wealth fund that all the Norwegian people share – yes I know this is anathema to Thatcherite scum.
Now all that has to happen is to 'wipe out' all the tax havens which will leave the venal tax dodgers nowhere left to turn.
To put this into focus if all the tax dodging was stopped dead in the UK the tax take would be £45-50 billion more each year. The difference to life in Spain with all tax loopholes closed down would be immeasurably better for all but this would need a sea-change in mentality – same goes for the UK.
March 26th, 2013 6:17 pm
My spanish lawyer says this is all rubbish. You have to be a tax resident in Spain to pay tax here. If you pay tax elsewhere, you don't pay spanish taxes end of story.
March 26th, 2013 6:49 pm
Dodgy Rodge. Where does it say otherwise ?
March 27th, 2013 3:37 pm
Dodgy Rodge,
your Spanish Lawyer did'nt mention – Double Taxation Agreements.
If the country you make profits in does'nt have such an agreement you are liable for tax – end of.
Would you really trust anything a Spanish lawyer says?
March 28th, 2013 9:56 pm
I would be most interested to hear from anyone who has managed to download this new worldwide assets declaration form, if so how did you do it?
April 4th, 2013 4:27 pm
Hello. I own a property in Spain but am still a tax paying resident of the UK as this is where I domicile. We only use the Spanish house for vacation.
Does this disclosure rule apply??
Many thanks.
April 4th, 2013 5:28 pm
Scott, only Spanish residents (nationals and foreigners) need to declare any such assets.

If I had known then what I know now I would never have moved to this corrupt bureaucratic shambles.
My advice to anybody thinking of buying here. Dont!
The very worst decision I have made in my life.
I just cannot think what those poor people who have legal but not legal! Houses, (which now I understand are having electricity and water cut off) are going through, a total bloody nightmare.
Spain can do no wrong in respect of this EU fiasco, great friends, so any help from that department will be non existent.
If I could sell my hovel I would be on the next plane out of here, and not too worried which way it was going.

First of all, the 'Property Road Show', now the 'Global Road Show'.
Last paragraph:
"We don't like the macroeconomic risk and we don't like the regulatory risk," said Tom Murley, head of renewable energy at private equity fund HgCapital. "We will not put another penny in Spain."
I say that, we don't like the 'illegal homes' and the building licences that have been 'revoked', unfortunately, we have already invested!
April 26th, 2013 12:40 pm
If you are in Spain for over 91 days, not consecutive, you are a resident, but non tax paying. However, you still need to register at the police station. If you are living in Spain for more than 182 days, then you are a resident and could be liable to pay your taxes in Spain. You may very well be a UK taxpayer, but that needs to be declared through your gestoria . You can only pay tax once because of the double taxation treaty.
There is a lot of stress in the expat community. Much of that stress is caused by disinformation on the Internet. I have visited expat sites and people are interpreting their own opinions which may be incorrect. Like Mark Twain said, don't read medical books, you could from a misprint!
April 26th, 2013 1:46 pm
Went down to my town hall today for a chat with the mayor. He did not even know what a modulo 720 was lol. In Spain everything is on the grapevine and boca a boca. It's almost as if Spain wants people to fall foul of these laws.

There you go again George, rubbing it in on gardening. Temperature
here this morning running right around 0ºC with light snow.
On hips, congratulations to Miz Anne on her progress.
Gerry's right hip has been bothering quite a bit lately so she went to
the doctor earlier in the week. It's been 14 years since it was
replaced and after X-rays he told her it was time for some
maintenance. Left hip still seems fine and it was replaced just 6
months after the right. He also said there'd be no gardening for her
this summer if she decided to have the tuneup done now so she's trying
to decide if she'll live with the hurt and put it off 'till fall,
after the garden is done. Quilting is her other passion so that way
she could garden this summer and spend more time quilting during
I can't keep up with her, but then again, she's just a youngster, only
turns 70 next week.
OB preserving: Opened a jar from a different lot of dilly beans
yesterday, that Pickle Crisp sure works well and it's so easy to use.
When I first found it late last season I bought two jars to make sure
I wouldn't run out. Hardly made a dent in the first jar. At the rate
it's used, I'll be gone before it is.
Just looked out the window and the snow is not so light anymore, and
it's travelling almost horizontally with the wind at ~ 60 km/h.

What is Pepperoni Made From?
Pepperoni is a cured-sausage product that became popular in the United States even before the establishment of the nation's leading producer of pepperoni, Hormel Foods, in 1891. The origins of pepperoni are in Italy, but the name "pepperoni" does not refer to the same food in Italian as it does in English.
Pepperoni typically is made from a combination of pork and beef trim, spices and cultures. Pork and beef pieces might be blended with salt, paprika, white pepper, cayenne pepper, anise seed and allspice. Cured sausages may also be made from a combination of other meats, including turkey and chicken. Meat, spices and preservatives are combined through grinding, chopping and mixing. Another option is to inject spices and preservatives in a water solution into the meat that will be cured.
Established in 1891 by George A. Hormel in Austin, Minnesota, Hormel Foods produces the nation's top-selling pepperoni. Hormel produces a variety of pepperoni products for direct consumption and for inclusion in other products, such as calzones, pizzas, sandwiches and salads. According to Hormel, its pepperoni sausage is "medium-chopped and seasoned with red pepper and fine spices."
Pepperoni is a cured sausage that is not actually cooked. Sodium nitrite is most often used to cure meat because it "greatly delays development of botulinal toxin (botulism), develops cured meat flavor and color, [and] retards development of rancidity and off-odors and off-flavors during storage." Table salt and other spices are also used in curing meat.
After the meat mixture is cured, the meat is also fermented and dried to reduce the moisture inside the mixture, making it more difficult for bacteria to grow and spoil the meat. Fermentation involves converting carbohydrates in meat into alcohols or acids. In pepperoni production, fermentation offers another way to protect against bacterial growth. In the final step, the pepperoni is dried.
Curing pork is safe when proper safety standards are followed, according to the American Meat Science Association (AMSA). In the U.S., meat packers and processors follow the standards of the U.S. Department of Agriculture for curing meat.
The history of the pepperoni dates to ancient Roman times. The Roman civilization was notably the first society to regulate pork production, and they cured pork products into useful forms of salami and sausage because they couldn't refrigerate meat.
Pepperoni lovers would have to ask for a spicy salami in Italy to come close to the taste of American pepperoni.

To emphasize the difficulty in particular for veterans with neuropsychiatric disease he added that
I think really that the most human feature of this amendment is the assistance it will render to those afflicted with nervous and mental disease in obtaining their compensation. When it is considered that the most important proof, the essential proof, to establish a claim for compensation must come from the man himself, and when it is realized that he is mentally afflicted and therefore can not, for instance, file affidavits from officers and servicemen with whom he served—since memory is usually defective and he can not remember whom his officers or comrades were—it becomes apparent how important is the change made by the bill.
(61 Cong. Rec. 4105 [daily ed. July 20, 1921], as referenced in VA, 1993a, p. 9)
At the time the legislation was enacted in 1921, there were few scientific studies to support or refute these assertions, and a flood of demands for presumptions for other disorders and for enhancement of those already approved followed soon thereafter.
By early 1923, the 2-year period from the time of discharge within which the neuropsychiatric disorder had to manifest itself was extended to 3 years despite administration objections that the extension was not supported by scientific evidence (VA, 1993a, p. 12). Later that same year veterans groups, including the Disabled American Veterans, the Veterans for Foreign Wars, and the American Legion, began calling to extend the period from 3 to 5 years. The lack of scientific evidence to justify the extension was noted by Dr. Earl Holt of the Veterans Bureau. In testimony to Congress, Dr. Holt stated that available statistics showed that neuropsychiatric disorder was just as common among the civilian population as among the military population, and that the extension of presumptions was unwarranted due to uncertainty over the causes of psychiatric disabilities arising after service (VA, 1993a, p. 14). In response to the Depression, the Economy Act of 1933 eliminated all benefits based on presumptive service connection. In its place the President was given broad authority to prescribe rules concerning eligibility for disability compensation including "the nature and extent of proofs, and presumptions" (emphasis added) for various classes of veterans (Economy Act of 1933 ch. 3 § 4, 48 Stat. at 9, as referenced in VA, 1993a, p. 17).
Following strong protests from World War I veterans, Congress subsequently moved to reenact presumptive service-connection conditions. President Roosevelt vetoed the legislation stating that he thought the Economy Act had settled the issue that a service-connected disability was a "question of fact rather than a question of law" in which each individual case would be "considered on its merits" rather than by
legislative dicta which, contrary to fact, provide that thousands of individual cases of sickness that commenced 4, 5, or 6 years after the termination of the war were caused by war services.
(VA, 1993a, p. 19)
Congress overrode the veto, and the measure was enacted into law (Independent Offices Appropriations Act. 1935. Public Law 141. 73rd Cong., 2d Sess.). The tension between those intent on being inclusive and generous in presumptive benefits to veterans and those wanting presumptions to be more firmly grounded by evidence of causation continues today.
The pertinent provisions of that 1935 Act are now found in 38 USC § 1702, "Presumption Relating to Psychosis," and provide that eligible veterans who developed an active psychosis

Some people have the wrong idea about hospice care. They think that hospice is only about dying and that hospice is the place you go when there's nothing more to be done. Nothing could be further from the truth. Hospice helps people with a life-limiting illness focus on living as fully as possible for as long as possible. In fact, hundreds of people in Erie County are currently receiving the benefits of Hospice care, enabling them to remain in their own homes or a home-like setting.
Hospice Buffalo is working to help people understand that hospice brings comfort, dignity, and peace to individuals with a terminal illness and their families.
Last year, 1.65 million dying Americans were cared for by hospice. Yet, there are some important facts about hospice that people don't know. And this may be keeping people from getting the best care possible, when they need it most.
1.Hospice is not a place—it's high-quality care that focuses on comfort and quality of life.
2.Hospice is paid for by Medicare, Medicaid, and most insurance plans. Fear of costs should never prevent a person from accessing hospice care. Denial of the Hospice Medicare Benefit is against the law. The Hospice Medicare Benefit is prepaid by every American and is something to which all are entitled.
3.Hospice serves anyone with a life-limiting illness, regardless of age or type of illness.
4.Hospice provides expert medical care as well as spiritual and emotional support to patients and families.
5.Research has shown that the majority of Americans would prefer to be at home at the end of life—hospice makes this possible for most people.
6.Hospice serves people living in nursing homes and assisted living facilities.
7.Hospice patients and families can receive care for six months or longer.
8.A person may keep his or her referring physician involved while receiving hospice care.
9.Hospice offers grief and bereavement services to family members to help them adjust to the loss in their lives.
10.Research has shown people receiving hospice care can live longer than similar patients who do not opt for hospice.
If this information about hospice surprises you, take the time to find out more. The best time to learn about hospice is before you or someone in your family is facing a medical crisis.

KEYNOTE - Creativity and the Weaving of Fate
Spider shows up throughout myth and in all cases the myths are similar - Spider is the weaver of stories, dreams, illusions, fate. Spider is often seen as linking past to future.
Spider is strongly linked to the number 8. It's 2 section body gives the appearance of 8, and it has 8 legs
Spider teaches to maintain balance - between past and future - physical and spiritual - life and death. Spider teaches that what you do now, thoughts, actions, emotions, serve to weave your future - if Spider shows up, it may indicate it is time to access your deepest wisdom about this teaching and make it a part of your daily life
Spider weaves a web of subtle and intricate pattern - what has gone before in the weaving determines what happens next in the weaving. Spider, in the center of his web can serve as a reminder that we are the center of our own world - our world is woven by us, around us - we are the keepers and writers of our own destiny - weaving it like a web by our thoughts, feelings and actions - it may be time to open yourself up to the infinite possibilities this presents - and make a choice - your choice today creates your tomorrow
Spider is guardian of all ancient languages and alphabets. Many attribute the very first letters to the patterns and angles formed by a spider's web- spider is considered to be the teacher of languages and the magic of writing - it may be time to write creatively - without the constraints of form, tradition or habit
Spiders are usually found in dark, inaccessible places - this can teach to not be afraid to use your creative energies in seemingly inaccessible places or in what may seem to be the dark - when the light hits it it will shine as a masterpiece - just as a spider's web does in the morning light
In all cases the type of lessons being offered will be determined by the type of spider involved
For Example: The Brown Recluse Spider:
A very common spider that lives in houses on the floor and behind furniture it hides in clothing and it is from there that most bites occur - its bite is toxic - the area of the bite itself may not even be noticed but the poison is inside and causing an internal wound that grows inward and may not heal for months
When the brown recluse shows up it is often time to closely examine your close personal relationships - there may be hidden hurts - an initial bite, hurt or betrayal may go unnoticed but emotional hurts or wounds caused will grow deeper over time until they are recognized and treated
Also - the bites occur because the spider is in clothing - take a look at those closest to you - if you - or your life - is being wounded or poisoned by those closest to you - you may be sharing things that could come back and bite you - learn to be a bit more private and reclusive
You've had recent negative experiences and you want to integrate them and learn the teachings from them as quickly as possible
You are not happy with the way your life currently is and want to make major changes, but feel "stuck" because of your fears and beliefs in your limitations
You feel out of balance in any way, and want to regain that sense of equilibrium
You are doing, will be doing, or want to do, any type of creative writing
You tend to have only twos speeds: staying almost completely still, or moving ligtening fast.
It takes alot to get you angry, but when it happens, your sting can hurt alot
You are in touch with and express a powerful feminine creative force, whether you are male or female
You have a talent for writing, and can weave words in creative ways that can often affect others in deep ways with their magic

Tomorrow and Tomorrow
Cold as Ice

Tau Zero
He has the user guide to the raspberry pi, thanks
He doesnt like knight rider particularly
He has read the Alastair Reynolds
Just looked up hard sci-fi - never heard it described as this but yes, that is definitely the sort of stuff he likes. Will look at the books you suggest.
He has read all Poul Anderson and Frederick Pohl so yes, you may be on the right lines

Kim Stanley Robinson's Mars trilogy is probably too old, but it's not amazingly well known considering how good it is. It is one of the few series that I've read more than once and will read again (and probably again). His 2312 published in May might be worth a punt, if he likes that and hasn't read Mars Trilogy, he might then hunt it down.
I should add David Brin's "Existence" (again 2012). Hard SF. It's on my bedside book pile so I can't personally vouch for it yet.
Last edited by pcstru; 30th November 2012 at 08:34 AM.
Thanks guys - anything old he is likely to have either read or discarded. He has definitely read the Kim Stanley Robinson trilogy but I will have a look at the new one thanks
The David Brin sounds interesting
*edit - the KSR book looks good but it is only in hardback - we need paperbacks as we have run out of room for anything else.
So any book is likely to be new-ish rather than brand new
I will keep an eye out for the paperback version of 2312 - I think I want to read that one too!
Last edited by witch; 30th November 2012 at 09:09 AM.
Is it only SF he likes, or does he like fantasy as well? Possibly the best books I've ever read are George R. R. Martins - 'A Song of Fire and Ice' (known as 'Game of Thrones' on the telly box). Truely Epic!
For Hard SF I've yet to read anything better than Ben Bova's Mars and Mars Returns.
Then there's the classics he's almost certainly already read... Dune series, Greg Bears 'Eon' series, Arthur C Clarks 'Odyssey' series.
If you can track a copy down Pier Anthony did a kids book called 'A Race of Time' which I thought was particularly good.
In the Sci-Fi/Fantasy vain, another good read (or at least first trilogy was) is Stephen Donaldsons 'The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant, the Unbeliever' series.
The Thrawn trilogy extends the Star Wars universe better than I'm expecting Disney to. I'm also partial to the odd William Shatner Star Trek tie in .
I tried Steven King's gunslinger series but after about three books I found that they were getting longer and more drawn out with each edition. I think I made to 5/7 and gave up!

Currently reading Peter F Hamilton's "Great North Road" - a big read! Before that I enjoyed Iain M. Banks "Hydrogen Sonata".

Iran has begun a large-scale air defence exercise intended to show it could deter a military strike against its nuclear facilities. The head of the air defence, General Ahmad Mighani, said the five-day-drill would simulate attacks on the nuclear sites with the aim of thwarting aerial reconnaissance and air strikes, state television reported. The commander of the revolutionary guards' air force, General Amir Ali Hajizadeh, told the Sephahnews website that the bases of any Israeli fighter planes attempting to attack Iran "will be hit by our devastating surface-to-surface missiles before they land".
