George Boyd spitting: Hull City await FA findings on altercation with Manchester City keeper Joe Hart
The forward appeared to spit in the direction of the City keeper
Hull manager Steve Bruce has defended George Boyd as the forward waits to see if the Football Association will take any further action over his altercation with Joe Hart in the second half of Manchester City's 2-0 win at the KC Stadium on Saturday.
Video footage appeared to suggest the Hull substitute spat in Hart's direction after the goalkeeper had reacted furiously to Boyd's fall under his challenge in the box in the 69th minute.
Referee Lee Mason booked Hart for his part in the incident with Boyd, who later added to the controversy by insisting Hart "put his head in" and should have been sent off.
The FA will now await the referee's report before deciding whether further action is required over the incident, which soured a fine win for a City side who had been reduced to 10 men in the 10th minute after captain Vincent Kompany was dismissed. The Belgian may also face further punishment for his reaction to being sent off.
But Bruce refuted the spitting allegation, labelling it as "a load of rubbish" and adding: "He (Boyd) has tried to talk and shout and something's come out. That's what I've seen of it.
"George Boyd wouldn't do that, no chance. Not deliberately, anyway. He is as honest as they come - he was playing non-league six years ago."
Bruce also backed Boyd over the suggestions of diving, accepting Mason got it right in not awarding a spot-kick but adding: "George has tried to go round the goalkeeper and he has lost his balance.
"Boyd is going at full tilt and he's expecting to get clattered. To be fair to Joe he has done what every experienced goalkeeper does - he's pulled himself out of the road. George is trying to take evasive action rather than simulate to get a penalty."
Boyd, who was at the centre of another, arguably stronger penalty call when he fell under Fernandinho's challenge two minutes later, criticised Hart's reaction to the initial incident.
He said: "He didn't nut me but he's put his head in, so he should have got sent off really.
"He said after he didn't touch me, but I thought he touched me a little bit. He came (after the game) and said he didn't touch me. He apologised for the reaction and that's it."

Let me ask you: 'Does a broader vocabulary allow you to think faster?'
Saturday 02 August 2014
Language has been called a cognitive or cultural tool, a description that succinctly summarises the research on the effects of language on cognition and the mind.
This research also answers your question with a definitive yes: a broader vocabulary can allow you to think faster. Assigning a label, which is basically what a word is, to a concept, allows it to be used more easily in your brain.
Consider the evidence: one study looked at differences in counting ability and counting memory between speakers of English and speakers of Piraha [an Amazonian tribe]. The Piraha language is notable for many things, one of which is its lack of any words for numbers or counting. What they found is that the Piraha can still recognise quantities – not surprising. However, their memory for quantities was worse than English speakers'.
Not only is the existence of a word important, but so, too, is how easily you can access it.
In another study, based on Daniel Oppenheimer's work on processing fluency, the researchers looked at short-term stock-price fluctuations and its relationship to the stock ticker symbol (eg, MSFT for Microsoft, FB for Facebook). What they found is that stocks with symbols that were easier to say did better immediately after IPO [Initial Public Offering].
And riffing off that general idea, I worked with some colleagues looking at the difference in hard-to-pronounce and easy-to-pronounce plural words (eg, 'keys' as easy, versus 'busses' as hard). What we found is that the plurality of objects for easy-to-pronounce plurals was remembered better.
One thing to note: most of what I'm talking about here is accuracy and you're talking about speed. In cog sci, the two are often interchangable because of a well-known speed-accuracy trade-off.
What may be surprising is how quickly these effects begin to happen. Recent research has shown that when learning a new word (in your native language), the new word begins to affect cognitive processing as quickly as a day later. This is particularly true if you've had a chance to sleep on it.
Ultimately, your question serves as a useful companion to another Quora question: does an increased vocabulary change the way you think?
In answering, I suggested that there is some effect of an increased vocabulary, but 'change the way you think' is a bit of an extreme way to put it; vocabulary doesn't serve as a straitjacket for what you can and cannot conceive of. Almost every invention was an idea before it was a word, for example. But there is definitely an effect, as the answer to your question shows.

For many entrepreneurs, it is a dream on par with finding the Holy Grail: an initial public stock offering that can turn a startup into the next Google and a 20-something founder into the next mega-millionaire.
Yet, for all that money and drama, do initial public offerings — IPOs — speed up technological innovation?
Not necessarily. An eye-popping new study by Shai Bernstein, an assistant professor of finance at the Stanford Graduate School of Business, finds that innovation slowed down by about 40 percent at tech companies after they went public.
In a meticulous analysis of patent data from nearly 2,000 companies, Bernstein found that newly public companies became noticeably more incremental and less ambitious with their in-house research than comparable firms that stayed private.
And that's not all. Top inventors were much more likely to leave if their companies went public, and the ones who stayed behind showed a steep decline in "innovation quality." Indeed, the newly public tech companies became much more dependent on buying technology from outside — usually by making corporate acquisitions.
That's almost the opposite of what one might expect. Young tech firms go public on the strength of their innovative promise, and going public provides them with cash to double down on their research and development.
From the vantage point of public policy, IPOs may still be a net positive for tech innovation. Many companies go public because they have just scored a major breakthrough and use their new resources to scale up the business. And even if newly public companies do become less daring, they can still propel innovation indirectly by paying top dollar for startups. Google has bought 100 companies since it went public in 2004. Facebook paid $1 billion for Instagram just as it was going public in May 2012.
But Bernstein's findings raise an important, but largely unexplored, management issue: IPOs appear to spur the outsourcing of innovation. It is a complex tradeoff, and one that tech entrepreneurs and investors may want to examine in more depth.
Bernstein reached that conclusion after a detailed comparison of patent data between companies that went public and similar companies that decided to stay private. All told, the study covered thousands of tech companies that either went public or withdrew IPO plans between 1985 and 2003.
To gauge "innovation," Bernstein collected data on nearly 40,000 patents awarded to companies both before and after they announced plans to go public. In addition to tracking the absolute number of patents, he estimated the innovative importance of each patent based on the number of times it had been cited in other patent applications.
The basic idea is straightforward: Patents that are cited more frequently are likely to represent more fundamental breakthroughs. But Bernstein also estimated the "originality" of patents, based on how many different technologies were cited. Last, but not least, he analyzed data about the inventors themselves.
Bernstein compared two categories of companies: those that completed public offerings and those that filed IPO registrations with the Securities and Exchange Commission but later withdrew them. To make apple-to-apple comparisons, he compared companies that were in the same technology sectors and that contemplated public offerings in the same year.
He found that the two groups of companies had broadly similar characteristics up to the point they decided to go public or stay private. Both groups had high-quality patents that were much more heavily cited than those of companies that didn't try to go public. The two groups were also similar in size, age, and research spending. And there were no significant differences in the quality of the IPO underwriters, which is often a proxy for the quality of the companies.
Not surprisingly, the biggest distinction between the companies that went public and those that stayed private was the stock market's appetite at the time. If the tech-heavy NASDAQ went into a swoon just after a company filed to go public, the company was much more likely to call off its plans. Almost one third of all the abandoned IPOs between 1985 and 2003 occurred in 2000 — the year the dot-com bubble collapsed.
The real difference in innovation came after companies completed public offerings. The average quality of those patents, as measured by how often they were cited, declined by about 40 percent in the five years after going public. By contrast, companies that remained private stayed on the same track as before.
Bernstein also confirmed what even blockbuster companies in Silicon Valley have worried about for years: IPOs can spark a brain drain.
He divided inventors into three categories: "stayers," "leavers," and "newcomers." Inventors were about 18 percent more likely to become leavers at companies that went public. Much more startling, however, was that the stayers saw a 48 percent decline in the quality of their patents. Inevitably, IPO firms recruited large numbers of newcomers.
One explanation for the brain drain is that top inventors have little incentive to stay after an IPO, in part because they often become overnight millionaires. An IPO also dilutes an inventor's stake in subsequent breakthroughs because those future profits will be spread among many more investors.
Bernstein suggests that yet another important reason for the brain drain is that IPOs lead to different management incentives. Executives at publicly held companies may become more cautious, for example, because they are subject to market pressures and worry more about career threats and takeovers, and feel pressure to tell investors a simple story.
To find out more, Bernstein compared companies with two different management structures. In the first group, chief executives were also chairmen of the board and had more autonomy to resist market pressures. The second group had separate chairmen and chief executives, which usually means the chief executive is less insulated from market pressure.
The result: Companies with separate board chairs and chief executives — those more likely to be sensitive to outside investors — saw a much bigger drop in innovation, and inventors were more likely to leave.
Bernstein cautions that initial public stock offerings still may be good for innovation in general. Public companies may not be as technologically ambitious or as willing to take risks as firms that stay private, but public companies have better access to capital for tapping innovation generated by smaller companies.
But going public clearly changes the mindset of companies, and that might be a reason for some companies to think twice about the Holy Grail.

By Carmen Gonzalez In the consumer IoT, everything is new, and the IT world of bits and bytes holds sway. But industrial and commercial realms encompass operational technology (OT) that has been around for 25 or 50 years. This grittier, pre-IP, more hands-on world has much to gain from Industrial IoT (IIoT) applications and principles. But adding sensors and wireless connectivity won't work in environments that demand unwavering reliability and performance.

By Carmen Gonzalez The Internet of Things (IoT) is causing data centers to become radically decentralized and atomized within a new paradigm known as "fog computing." To support IoT applications, such as connected cars and smart grids, data centers' core functions will be decentralized out to the network's edges and endpoints (aka "fogs"). As this trend takes hold, Big Data analytics platforms will focus on high-volume log analysis (aka "logs") and rely heavily on cognitive-computing algorithms (aka "cogs") to make sense of it all.

I, 1963 This invention relates to pipe handling apparatus, and more particularly to apparatus for moving pipe from one level to another. are generally used for loading because of its Weight, but in small or medium size pipe oftentimes it is loaded by hand onto a truck or unloaded therefrom which is tiresome as well as dangerous to the men Casualties often occur in handling pipe by hand due to the weight and length thereof. It is the principal object of the present invention to provide a mobile apparatus having conveyors mounted centrally of the mobile vehicle and extending from each to provide means on the mobile unit for operation of said chains. Still further objects of the present invention are to provide endless chains on end of those conveyors the pipe will be far enough removed from the lugs so that the lug will be freely disengaged from the pipe and move therefrom around the sprocket of the conveyors. FIG. 1 is an showing one of the other in FIG. 2 FIG. 3 end View of the pipe handling apparatus the conveyors in pick up position and positon to unload onto a truck or the like. is a top plan view of the apparatus. is a longitudinal cross sectional view particuimmediately adjoining the leg larly illustrating the driving mechanism from the power take-off of the vehicle. FIG. 4 is an enlarged partly fragmentary top view showing the mounting of the conveyors on the frame of the vehicle. FIG. 5 is an enlarged fragmentary side view particularly illustrating the mounting of the conveyors and the lugs on the chains of the conveyors. FIG. 6 is an enlarged fragmentary view showing the synchronization of the conveyor chains and sprockets of one conveyor with respect to another. FIG. 7 is an enlarged perspective partly fragmentary View of the front and mounting of the conveyors. FIG. 8 is a cross sectional view showing the mounting of the sprockets in the ends of the channels of the unloading end of the conveyors with the skid in disassembled relation. Referring more in detail to 1 designates generally a pipe handling apparatus embodying the features of my invention shown mounted upon a vehicle 2 having a rame 3 carrying a motor 4 having a transmission 5 and a power take-off 6. The vehicle also includes driving mechanism including a steering wheel 7 and vehicle from place to place. The frame includes sleepers or frame members 9 and the drawings: drive member or standard 27. mounted on the front end 28 of the frame 3 is a cross bar or tubular member 29 of the frame 3, the outer ends being bifurcated as indicated at 30 and 31. mounted on the cross bar 29 and extending upwardly therefrom is a channel membe' or standard 32. The channel members 27 and 32 are in longitudinal a1ignment with each other and with the sleeper member 9 of the frame as illustrated in FIGS. 2 and 7. Rigidly secured to the upper side edges of the channel members 27 and 32 by welding or the like are channel Bracket members 35 and 36 having have parallel extending and the arm 58 is longer than the by the straight portion 54 (FIG. 4) 55 Which is rigidly secured to a channel member 56 of the conveyor element 46 and the leg 57 of the bracket arm 49 is also rigidly secured to a channel member 58 of the conveyor element 47. arm 49 as indicated l slightly from the conveyor elements 47 for a purpose later described. It will be noted that there are conveyor elements on each end of the vehicle like those 46 and 47 and facing each other and as these are identical in structure, they have been given like numbers. Rigidly secured to the portions 55 and 57 of the brackets 48 and 49 by welding or other suitable means are angle members 59 and 66 and which extend along the channel members for stiffening to the inner end of the channel members 56 and 58 by welding or other suitable means are channel bar members 61 and 62 having their other ends rigidly secured to plates 63 and 64 having an end thereof pivotally mounted by pins 65 and 66 to bracket members 67 and 68 rigidly secured to the vertically extending bearing standards and 13 respectively as illustrated in FIG. 2. The conveyor elements 46 and 47 are thus independently pivotally mounted to the bearing standards and to the upright standards or channel members 27 and 32 and to the bracket members 48 and 49 as previously described. Braces 69 have one end rigidly secured to the plates 63 and 64 and their other ends to the channel members 56 and 58 as illustrated in FIG. 2 to lend rigidity to the conveyor element. The cross bars 24 and 29 are also braced to the frame structure by rods 74) (FIG. 7) having one end attached to said cross bars and the other ends to said end standards 27 and 32. The conveyor elements 46 and 47 are also supported and are adjustably mounted by extension members 71 and 72 (PEG. 7). The extension members are telescoping and have one end secured to the bifurcated ends and 26 and 36 and 31 of the cross bars 24 and 29 by pins or the like 73 and 74. The telescoping portions '75 and 76 of the extension members have spaced openings 77 therein and have one end 78 pivotally mounted to lugs 79 and 86 depending from the channel members 56 and 58 by pins 81 and 82. In order to adjust the conveyor elements 46 and 47, pins 73 and 74 are removed and the conveyor either raised or lowered and the pins inserted in the openings 77 as desired. The shaft 22 extends outwardly from the bearings 17 and 21 and mounted thereon are sprockets 83 aligned with the channel members 56 and sprockets 84 are mounted in the bifurcated ends of the channel members 56 by pins 36 over which sprockets run endless chains 87. Spaced lugs 88 are secured to certain of the links of the chain as will later more specifically be referred to. C01- lars 89 are secured to the shaft as shown in FIG. 4 to hold the sprockets 63 in place. Spaced outwardly from the on the shaft 22 are sprockets sprockets $3 and mounted 90 held thereon by collars '91, the sprockets being aligned with the channel members 58 of the conveyor elements 47. The outer end of the channel members 58 are bifurcated as indicated at 92 and carry sprockets 93 over which along with sprockets 90 are run endless chains 94 which are also provided with spaced lugs 95 as later referred to. The lugs 88 and 95 are identical and it will be noted that they are of a length as illustrated in FIG. 5 so that one end 96 thereof is secured to a link 97 and has a portion 98 extending over and engaging the next link 99 so that when the face 16%) of the lug engages a pipe both links 97 and 99 will resist the pressure of the pipe. In other words, all of the weight will not be on the link 97 but the link 99 will also resist pressure from the pipe against the face 106. A speed reduction unit 101 is secured to a cross member 1632 mounted between the sleeper members 9 and 9 as illustrated in FIG. 2. The speed reduction unit has an input shaft 193 and an output shaft 163 wherein the output shaft rotates at a reduced speed from that of the input shaft. The input shaft 163 is connected to the power take-off 6 of the transmission 5 by a universal rod 194 (FIG. 3). the same. Rigidly secured A cross member 105 is also secured to 75 will not wear eleme the sleeper members 9 and 9' spaced from the cross member lltZ and mounted thereon are bearings 106 and 167 for mounting a shaft 163. Mounted on the output shaft 593 is a sprocket 1.69 aligning with a larger sprocket t lt on the shaft 3.68 over which a chain 1'11 operates. Also mounted upon the shaft 1% is a sprocket 112 aligning with a sprocket 113 on the shaft 22 and over which a chain 114 engages whereby operation of the motor through the power take-off, shafts and sprockets just described, the shaft 22 will be operated for a purpose later shown. Mounting of the sprockets 64 and 93 is accomplished by welding or otherwise suitably securing to the outer ends of the channel members 56 and 5% of the conveyor 5 46 and 47 depending brackets 115 and 116 havin g n gs for receiving the shafts 117 of the sprockets 54. re conveyor elements 47 are the pick up conveyors and the conveyor elements 46 are the unloading conveyors. Secured to the bracket 116 of the channel members S6 is an outwardly extending arm 118 having an opening 119 for a pin 120 secured to an arm or skid thus pivotally mounted in the arm 118 for a purpose later shown. Operation of apparatus constructed and assembled as described is as follows: In FIG. l there is shown a pile of pipe 122. In piling such pipe, skids 123 are placed on the ground or other support and a row of pipe 124 placed on the skids then skid bars such as 2 x 4s T25 are placed thereon and the second row of pipe 126 is then piled thereon. Any number of tiers may be piled as desired. When it is desired to pick up the pipe from the pile 122 and load it on a truck or the like 127 having a bed 128, the vehicle including the loading apparatus is moved alongside the pipe T26 and the conveyor 47 adjusted so that the lower end will be adjacent the edge of the pile of pipe 126, the adjustment being made through the extension members 71 as illustrated in FIG. 1. The truck 127 is then moved to the position alongside the apparatus and the conveyors 46 elevated to the desired height as shown in FIG. 1 with the outer edge thereof about even with the bed 128 of the truck 127. Operation of the motor 4 of the mobile unit will, through the power take-off shaft and chain and sprocket connection, rotate the shaft 22. and thereby rotate the chains 94 on the conveyor elements 47 in an anti-clockwise direction as shown in P16. 1. The skid is moved alongside the channel member 58 as shown at r25 (FIG; 1). A workman will move the pipe 126 along the skid 125 so that it will be picked up by the facing side 19d of the lugs 95 as indicated at 129, FIG. 1. The rotation of the chains may be varied, but the apparatus is adapted to carry a pipe on each lug also as shown in FIG. 1, and when the pipe 129 gets to the top of the conveyor 47 and particularly as shown in FIG. 6, the lugs on the chain 87 of the conveyor 46 also operating in an anti-clockwise direction as shown in FIGS. 1 and 6 will also engage the pipe 129 as indicated at 130 (FIG. 6). The chains 94 on the conveyors 47 are synchronized so that the lugs 95 are in alignment transversely of the vehicle so that the pipe will ride in a straight line upwardly. The chains 87 on the conveyors 46 are also synchronized with each other but are slightly out of synchronization with the chains on the conveyors 47. In other words, the lugs 88 on the chains 87 operating over the sprocket 83 on the shaft 22 will contact the pipe at its outer edge 131 and then move the pipe slightly forwardly of the lugs 95 also as illustrated in FIG. 6 so that when the sprockets 9ft rotate further the lugs '95 must turn downwardly to move underneath the conveyor and the pipe will be moved far enough ahead so that the upper side face 132 will readily disengage from the pipe. The pipe will be moved forwardly enough that the lug against the pipe by friction therewith.

Voucher Guarantee
Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
GrabOne's Voucher Guarantee means missing out on claiming your deal in time no longer means losing out altogether!
How does it work?
- A voucher is valid up to and including the expiry date stated.
- If you don't use your voucher before that date for whatever reason, it can still be used as credit towards that service with that business for an additional three months.
For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still use the amount you paid for the voucher as credit towards a bungy jump, for another three months.
A few things to note:
- The GrabOne Voucher Guarantee does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- It's always best to use your voucher before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your vouchers are about to expire.
- During the extended Voucher Guarantee period, your voucher can only be put towards the service stated on the voucher.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the Voucher Guarantee can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- The conditions on your voucher still apply during the Voucher Guarantee period.

Most Americans don't care about fracking, survey finds
Fracking seems like a hot topic, especially in Ohio with its burgeoning Utica shale play, but many Americans aren't quite sure what it is, says a recent survey conducted by researchers for the journal Energy Policy.
Formally known as hydraulic fracturing, the practice involves pumping a mix of water, sand and chemicals at high pressure into underground shale, cracking the formations apart and releasing oil and natural gas. Eastern Ohio's Utica shale formation has been the subject of heavy interest over the last few years, particularly for its natural gas.
While many Ohioans might know about fracking, the same can't be said for Americans in general. Almost 40 percent of the 1,061 persons responding to the survey said they had heard nothing about fracking, compared with 9 percent who said they'd heard a lot about it and 38 percent who had heard something about the topic.
As might be expected on a controversial practice, those with opinions about fracking showed strong feelings – 20 percent were somewhat or strongly opposed to it, and 22 percent were somewhat or strongly supportive.
Still, 58 percent of those questioned offered no opinion about the technique that has been attacked by environmentalists. And that, the study's authors said, is important as the fracking debate moves forward. Along with energy prices and technological advancement, "public attitudes will likely play a critical role in shaping the degree to which unconventional oil/gas reserves are developed," the authors noted.

New Zealand needs to pull its environmental socks up and promote "green growth", says a group of influential business leaders.
Pure Advantage, a not-for-profit entity whose backers include Air New Zealand boss Rob Fyfe, Villa Maria founder George Fistonich and former General Motors chief financial officer Chris Liddell, has released a paper saying New Zealand should be leading the global race to generate economic growth out of green technologies, but isn't.
The report, New Zealand's Position in the Green Race, says the country urgently needs to improve its environmental record and protect its image. "There is very little co-ordinated planning in New Zealand around what green growth represents and what it could potentially mean for the country," chairman Rob Morrison said.
The report offers a litany of New Zealand's mediocre environmental credentials. We have slipped from first to 14th on the Yale University Environmental Performance Index. Our per capita carbon emissions are the fifth worst in the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), and will overtake those of the US on a per capita basis in less than eight years.
Our housing stock is among the coldest and the least efficient in the OECD. Three quarters of our threatened species lack targeted recovery work.
During the global financial crisis most OECD countries included significant clean economy investment as part of stimulus packages. The New Zealand Government's 2009 package missed this opportunity, the report says.
"New Zealand's economy needs strong leadership to embrace the high-value green economy and lift it out of its economic malaise.
"This is our opportunity to emerge from Australia's shadow, not by following that country's carbon intensive industries but by breaking ahead in the pursuit of a green economy."
Pure Advantage member Geoff Ross said the group was focused on the potential for business.
"If as a byproduct we create a better environment then that's fantastic, but our primary focus is communicating the economic opportunities," he said.
"New Zealand kind of missed the tech boom and we've missed out on various other global moves in consumer behaviour. There is going to be a global move towards greener brands and we're a sitter to make the most of it."
As a marketer of consumer products around the world he had experienced the advantage of New Zealand's clean green image, and yet the talk at home was about the costs of becoming a low carbon economy, he said.
The Green Party supported the work of Pure Advantage, co-leader Russel Norman said.
"What this offers is a way to deal with our conventional economic problems but also an opportunity to make our economy more sustainable," he said.
The National Government's focus on initiatives such as deep-sea oil drilling, coal mining and subsidising irrigation was taking the country in exactly the opposite direction to where its real economic opportunities lay, he said.
Pure Advantage will release a second report on its strategy for achieving green growth, prepared by Vivid Economics and Auckland University, later this year.

You can change controls to keyboard from gameplay options menu.
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
i can't stop playing!
immortal mode, that is XD
i only gave it a 9 becuase.. well... it's fun and all.. but it's been done to death
but i do love the new controls <3
Rated 5 / 5 stars
wow m8. this is excellent!! the customization is ace ,I liked the skins and the options and while playing it was so cool. oh and the turning on your snake using the keyboard was better because it wasn't straight 90 degree turns.... so brilliant remake
Rated 3 / 5 stars
Theres a glitch...
If the snake's head comes even anywhere near the cursor, the snake curls in on it self for an "insta-kill".
Defiantly ended my game early a few times. It's pretty frustrating.
Overall, a good remake of a classic game. Liked the customization idea.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
this is tottaly awsome love this new version of snake its a great change to the stupid little line on my cellphone im gonna give u a

Reform der Gewerbesteuer: Wie es Euch gefällt?- Eine Nachlese
One of the most pertinent reform discussions in Germany is found in the debate on the local business tax. During the last year, two basic reform proposals, a revitalisation of the current local business tax and its replacement by a surcharge on personal and corporate income taxes, intensively competed. Finally, none of these alternatives was realised. The federal parliament and government could only agree to introduce temporary financial relief for local jurisdictions. In this article, the continuous need for a fundamental reform of local government finances is emphasised. After a discussion of the basic alternative reform models against the background of characteristics of economically reasonable local government finances, the simulated impact of a local surcharge on income taxes is compared to the tax rate differences at the local level in Switzerland. The surcharge model would lead to smaller tax rate differentials than currently exist at the Swiss local level. The resistance against such a reform is explained by the fact that political actors at the local level oppose the implied higher political responsibility when citizens face local income tax rates as prices for local public services.
