Residents are taxed on their worldwide income less any deductions, such as double tax relief, personal allowance, contributions to personal pensions and mortgage interest. Non-residents are taxed on their Guernsey-sourced income, with certain exceptions. Depending on their circumstances, the tax payable by an individual can be capped at 27,500 Guernsey pounds (GGP), GGP110,000 or GGP220,000.
Typically, individuals are subject to income tax at a flat rate of 20 percent. There are no taxes on capital gains, inheritance or gifts in Guernsey.
The basis of an individual's Guernsey tax liability is determined by their residence status. The criterion is the number of days of presence in Guernsey (at midnight at the end of the day).
Guernsey income is taxed on a receipts basis. A non-resident individual is only liable to Guernsey tax on income which arises or accrues in Guernsey, with the exception of dividends, royalties, bank interest and non-executive directors' fees.A person who is resident (but not solely or principally resident) in Guernsey may elect to be assessed on Guernsey-sourced income only (subject to a minimum charge of GGP 27,500), with no allowances, reliefs or deductions available. Alternatively, they are liable to Guernsey income tax on their worldwide income with allowances, reliefs and deductions (including double tax relief) available.An individual who is resident (but not solely or principally resident) who comes to Guernsey wholly or mainly for employment reasons, may elect to be taxed on Guernsey-sourced income plus remittances of non-Guernsey income sources.A solely or principally resident individual will be taxable on their worldwide income with appropriate allowances, reliefs and deductions (including double tax relief) available. Alternatively, an individual who is solely or principally resident may elect to pay tax in accordance with the tax cap of GGP220,000 on worldwide income (subject to a maximum of GGP110,000 non-Guernsey income sources).
Employment/self-employment (including benefits-in-kind), bank interest, investment income, and rental income.
Guernsey has a flat tax rate of 20 percent for individuals. The standard rate of income tax on companies is 0 percent, with a rate of 10 percent applicable to certain banking profits and the profits of certain domestic insurance and fiduciary businesses. A rate of 20 percent applies to businesses regulated by the Office of Utility Regulation, and to profits derived from the exploitation of land and buildings situated in Guernsey. Guernsey tax residence flowchart for individuals
Any employee working in Guernsey must register for Guernsey social security. In 2014, employees are subject to contributions of 6 percent of their gross salary capped at GGP662.22 per month. Employer's contributions of 6.5 percent of their gross salary are capped at GGP717.41 per month. Reciprocal agreements with some jurisdictions allow an individual on a temporary secondment to continue to pay contributions in their home jurisdiction.
The tax year is a calendar year.
Individuals are required to complete and file an annual personal tax return by 30 November of the following year. Individuals who are not already registered are required to inform the Director of Income Tax of their liability to Guernsey tax by 14 July following the year in which any chargeable income arises. Tax returns must be filed by non-residents who are in receipt of Guernsey-sourced income (except for dividends, royalties, bank interest and non-executive directors' fees).
Tax and social security contributions are withheld from employment income and are separately reported to both departments either monthly or quarterly, depending on the size of the company.
Guernsey has double taxation agreements with a number of countries, providing either exemptions from tax in one jurisdiction or relief from double taxation by way of credit.
Companies are resident in Guernsey if they are incorporated in Guernsey or if they are controlled in Guernsey (i.e. the majority shareholders are resident in Guernsey). A permanent establishment (PE) of a company which is non-resident for Guernsey tax purposes is subject to Guernsey tax on the profits of that PE arising in Guernsey.
Guernsey currently has no value-added tax (VAT) or goods and services tax (GST). There are indirect taxes on consumables such as tobacco, alcohol and petrol.
Guernsey has no specific transfer pricing legislation, though it does have general anti-avoidance legislation.
The Guernsey housing market is divided into open market and local market sections. The open market amounts to approximately 10 percent of the total housing in Guernsey and is around 40 percent more expensive than local market housing. European Union (EU) citizens moving to Guernsey must obtain a Guernsey housing license in order to occupy a local market property, and these generally last for a maximum of 5 years, although longer licenses may be granted in some circumstances. Anyone can move to Guernsey if they buy and occupy an open market home, and any EU citizen occupying an open market home is eligible to work in Guernsey. If recruiting from outside the EU, proof of recruitment efforts within Guernsey, the United Kingdom and the EU must be provided and the work permit available is generally for a maximum of 4 years. There are also certain restrictions on accompanying partners/family members.
Guernsey has data privacy laws.
Guernsey has no exchange controls.
Benefits provided to employees are generally taxable as salary unless specifically exempted. Specifically exempted benefits include:
The provision of accommodation to an employee is a taxable benefit in Guernsey. The benefit is calculated as the lower of the open market rental value of the property and 15 percent (for unfurnished accommodation) or 17.5 percent (for furnished accommodation) of the employee's total assessable remunerations.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by blackvelvet Obsessed Just received the scorpio wash today in the mail. These are my first pair of One Teaspoon shorts. I am now obsessed! Just placed another order for the dream wash, and can't wait to take these with me to my Mexico trip. I ordered my usual size 26 and they fit perfectly! I am always a 26 on designer denim. It is slightly loose around the hip area which is how these shorts are supposed to be. They are very flattering. Can't wait to receive the other color in the mail. Will definitely check out more One Teaspoon styles online. These shorts are badass! 7.15.2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Melissa66 PERFECTION These shorts are amazing. They fit loose but are cut and frayed in all the right places. Make your legs look slim and don't loose there shape no matter how many times you wash and wear them. Dream wash is my favorite but brando is sweet as well. Goes with boots and long tops tucked in the front. Very cool shorts! Run true to size. 10.11.2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Alleycatrawr Love it I bought these in the brando wash. I stuck with my normal size 25 and they're perfect. I can either wear them where denim normally falls, or I can push them down and wear them baggy. Either look is great, just different. They are really flattering because the oversized look and asymmetrical hem really elongate your legs. The denim is pretty stiff, but I can see them softening up with a few wears/washes. Overall I think these are my favorite pair of denim shorts. Thanks Free People :) 8.29.2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by jess902 The BEST shorts ever! I am seriously so obsessed with these shorts. I purchased my first one teaspoon shorts about 2 weeks ago in the dream wash and they are by far the best shorts i've ever owned. I love how strong the denim is. With my other shorts, after wearing them once or twice, they immediately crease making it appear shorter but with these shorts, they literally look same as new and doesn't crease. These are super flattering and I just ordered the Scorpio Wash. Can't wait to get them. They are a little bit loose but that's just the style and makes your legs look a lot thinner. You get what you pay for! 8.5.2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by zigrawr One Teaspoon = best cut-offs I don't even bother with any other denim shorts after discovering One Teaspoon when I lived in Australia a few years ago. I wear the Bonita's style in 24, which already have a loose fit, but went up to a 25 in the Bandits style because I wanted them to fit baggier & lower. They are possibly a bit looser than expected around my hips (but I only have 31" hips) - but I don't think I would have wanted this style in a 24 as they look good slightly oversized. Very comfortable fabric and the cut is flattering on the legs. I've already ordered another pair in a different colour :) 8.5.2014

On Monday, we visit Fort Negley to speak to the Nashville Civil War Round Table, and on Wednesday, we travel to Clarksville to speak to the Clarksville Civil War Round Table. Both events start at 7pm and are open to the public. Click here for more information. We hope you will join us!
Also on Thursday, Nashville Public Television debuts the fifth in a series of documentaries about Tennessee and the Civil War. This episode, entitled "Crisis of Faith," features my wife, Traci Nichols-Belt, as one of the scholars interviewed for the program. We're very excited and honored to be a part of this important program. Here's a press release excerpt...
The vast majority of Americans in the first half of the 19th Century were highly religious, overwhelmingly Christian, and believed America was destined for greatness, in part because of their belief in God. This conviction was particularly strong in the heavily-protestant South. The belief among Southerners that they were ordained for greatness by God, though, was put to the ultimate test by The Civil War, making the war not only a crisis of country and conscience, but also a crisis of faith.
NPT's Justin Harvey interviews Traci Nichols-Belt
for "Crisis of Faith"
"Crisis of Faith," the latest episode in Nashville Public Television's "Tennessee Civil War 150" series, a joint production between NPT and the Renaissance Center, examines how positions on slavery and biblical interpretations on its morality divided religious denominations, and ultimately, the nation. Narrated by multiple Grammy and Dove award-winning singer and songwriter Amy Grant, and written and produced by NPT's Justin Harvey ("Nashville: The 21st Century in Photographs ," "Nashville World War II Stories "), "Crisis of Faith" premieres Thursday, June 21 at 8:00 p.m., on NPT-Channel 8. It is the fifth episode in the "Tennessee Civil War 150" Series, a multi-part project coinciding with the Sesquicentennial anniversary of the Civil War. Previous installments include "Secession," "Civil War Songs and Stories," "No Going Back: Women and the War" and "Shiloh: The Devil's Own Day."
With interviews from notable religion and history scholars, including Mark Noll, James Byrd, Dennis Dickerson and Traci Nichols-Belt, among others, "Crisis of Faith" tracks the argument over slavery from the American Revolution, through the division of the Methodist, Baptist and Presbyterian Churches into northern and southern factions before the Civil War, and how that eventually led to a divided nation.
We hope you'll tune in to NPT-Channel 8 on Thursday, June 21st to watch "Crisis of Faith." Here's a brief video preview of the documentary...

Lords ask questions on Scottish independence
The House of Lords Economic Affairs Committee will question Lord West of Spithead on as part of their inquiry into the impact on the UK economy of Scottish independence.

Prosser Seeks Another Recusal In Case Against Him
(AP) Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice David Prosser is asking that a fourth colleague on the state's highest court not hear a case involving an ethics violation against Prosser. The state Judicial Commission has accused Prosser of violating the judicial ethics code when he placed his hands on rival Justice Ann Walsh Bradley's neck during an argument last year in front of four other justices.
Prosser on Wednesday asked that Justice Patrick Crooks recuse himself from the case. Prosser has already asked that Justices Pat Roggensack, Bradley and Chief Justice Shirley Abrahamson not sit on the case. If three or more justices agree to recuse themselves, the case against Prosser would likely end due to a lack of quorum. Counting Prosser, there are seven justices on the Supreme Court.
Obey Says Democrats Must Avoid 'Suicide Pact'
(AP) Former U.S. Rep. Dave Obey says Wisconsin Democrats must unite against Republican Gov. Scott Walker and not form a ``suicide pact'' by attacking one another in the primary race. Obey spoke Wednesday on a conference call arranged by Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett. Obey supports Barrett. His chief rival, Kathleen Falk, has been attacking Barrett more aggressively this week leading up to the May 8 primary. Obey says the only way Democrats can make credible arguments to defeat Walker in the June 5 election is to earn the trust of Democrats, independents and Republicans and avoid ``petty sniping.'' He says Democrats are the underdogs in the recall and they face an uphill battle against Walker because of all the money he has raised. Falk spokesman Scot Ross did not immediately respond.
Houston County Still High On Unemployment
A more focused snapshot of unemployment around Minnesota shows that some areas are continually doing better then others. And that's the case in Houston County. They are still hovering around the 9% unemployment rate...joining 3 other counties in southern Minnesota. The state's seasonally adjusted jobless rate came in at 5.8 percent during March. The highest unemployment remains in north central Minnesota where Clearwater County's 15 and a half percent leads the state. Twin Cities area jobless numbers are closer to the state's overall rate, while the lowest rates, under five percent, remain in southwestern and far western Minnesota.
Big Party Planned for Bluff Park Reopening on Friday
Grand reopening of La Crosse's most visible park is this Friday. The city will hold a ceremony to not only open Grandad Bluff park but also commemorate its centennial. The park's been closed for a year to undergo an extensive renovation. Some of that meant to preserve the history of the site, says La Crosse park and recreation director, Steve Carlyon. He says the shelter is a good example of that; getting restored to specs in the original blueprints from 1930. At the ceremony on Friday will be food and drink and a ceremonial Ho-Chunk blessing. Renovation cost: $1.4 million. Much of that paid for through state grants.
Absentee Voting Underway
With as many elections Wisconsinites have faced over the past year and a half...guessing a voter turnout for the upcoming recall elections is somewaht up in the air. La Crosse City Clerk, Teri Lehrke, says she has her finger on the election pulse.
Absentee voting began Monday for governor, lieutenant governor, and four state Senate seats. There are primaries for all six posts, and the winners will face the Republican recall targets in early June.

There seems to be a push in our country to create stricter gun control laws, but those who try to create such legislation are not able to make the headway they'd like. Today, anti-gun factions are attempting get concessions from the opposing political view to at least take guns away from those who are considered mentally unstable. I see this as a poor argument for a number of reasons. Still, I'd like to fully address the problem with you and discuss this if I might.

Ian Bell
Ian Bell making a half-decent fist of things
Ian Bell made 187 off 145 balls against the Prime Minister's XI in England's latest warm-up match. Okay, so it's not exactly the biggest match ever – Chris Rogers bowled two overs – but what's more reassuring, making 187 off 145 balls or making 26 off 38?
This constitutes further evidence that Ian Bell is not Alastair Cook. The match also provided evidence that Glenn Maxwell remains Glenn Maxwell. You've got to love a man who can score 136 off 91 balls one day and be clean bowled charging down the pitch to leave the ball in a Twenty20 match another day.21 Appeals
Ian Bell is not Alastair Cook
There are a lot of optimists in the world and the problem with positive people is that they assume that positivity itself is some sort of positive.
It's all well and good swanning about thinking everything will work out, but really you're just setting yourself up for disappointment and failure. The truth is things don't always work out.
Positivity can be good. It can be necessary. But it can also lead you to do stupid things.
Let's have some examples
At one extreme, imagine you've just bought a bag of beef-flavoured Space Raiders. It requires minimal positivity to look on the bright side and assume that the things inside the bag are baked corn snacks and therefore edible. Result. You get to eat some food.
An extreme pessimist, however, might perceive the same items as being made from some sort of radioactive compacted dust laced with strychnine. Boo. No food for you.
Now imagine you're standing on a high bridge across a canyon. You close your eyes and consider stepping off the side. Most people would assume that they would fall to their death were they to do that. An extreme optimist might think that a giant bird would just happen to fly underneath their foot at the exact moment they stepped out and hover there, providing support. Then another bird for their next step and another and another until they reach safety.
Now these are two extremes, but positivity does slowly morph into delusion the further you move towards each end of the continuum. Somewhere between them there's a grey area. For example, a recurring scenario in cricket is when a team has to choose between a familiar older player and a less familiar younger player.
Shades of grey
The point about shades is that you're talking about gradation, which is why we've just resisted the obvious temptation to include a number with that subheading. We'll go with 'infinite' if it makes you any happier.
No two cricketing selection decisions are the same, but with really close calls it always boils down to how much of an optimist you are – how you perceive the absent data. You know what's happened, but what will happen next?
Let's get specific. Ian Bell will open the batting for England tonight. Alex Hales will not. Is that the right decision or the wrong decision?
Bell v Hales
Bell is familiar. Perhaps over-familiar would be a better way of putting it. For better or worse, we don't feel like there's anything left to learn about him.
Alex Hales is newer. He had a strong domestic season and has a really good record in Twenty20 internationals, but as a 50-over opener, he's more of an unknown quantity.
We can compare stats and technique and approach, but a large part of the argument seems to hinge on what Hales might do. If you're inherently positive, you'll say Hales might win England matches with aggressive hundreds. If you're of a more negative mindset, you'll say he might rack up a great string of single-figure scores.
So Ian Bell is not Alastair Cook then?
Correct. Chances are, on some level you're aware of this fact, but we thought we'd provide a reminder. People talked so much about how bad it was to have Bell and Cook in the same top three that the two batsmen have almost become interchangeable when we talk about one-day cricket.
Hales, in contrast, was fortunate enough to be kept out of the side by Cook and has therefore become symbolic of the brave new Cook-less world in which everyone hits sixes from ball one.
But Ian Bell is not Alastair Cook and Alex Hales is not the anti-Alastair Cook. (Nor is Cook the purest form of one-day failure imaginable, for that matter – but that's something it's not worth getting into right now.)
Ian Bell is Ian Bell
If we're looking at their technical suitability for one-day cricket, Alastair Cook has three shots and Ian Bell has about 42.
If we're looking at the stats, Cook clearly ground to a halt, but Bell has been surprisingly effective for a while now. In 2012 – the year that England became the top-ranked one-day international nation – he averaged 54.90 and scored at a strike-rate of 82.68. In 2013, he averaged 43.00 and scored at 76.87. In 2014, he averaged 34.21 and scored at 90.89.
You can look at those figures two ways. You can say he simply doesn't score quickly enough for the modern day and age, or you can say that it's unrealistic to expect everyone in your batting line-up to perform like David Warner.
Warner, for the record, averages 31.40 in one-dayers with a strike-rate of 83.50.
But Hales *might* win matches for England
It's true. He might. It really is hard to argue against that, because it's absolutely true. We've even said that Alex Hales and Moeen Ali would make a great one-day opening partnership ourself.
We're not trying to make a case here. It's a grey area and that's really our point. If we have some sort of message, it's that the 'better the devil you know' argument is rarely a crowd-pleaser, but that doesn't necessarily make it wrong.24 Appeals
Australia, you have been sherminated
Well that was – actually, what was that? It's probably a bit early to be committing to specific words, so let's not. England have won the Ashes. That's a functional way of saying it. You can add your own emotions internally. England won every Test in which Ian Bell scored a hundred. Shermination complete.
It was seat of pants airborne travel for the editor working on the Channel 5 highlights show with the fourth day of the fourth Test pushing on past 7pm. Chapeau to them and chapeau to Stuart Broad and Tim Bresnan – the latter taking second billing thanks to a couple of key wickets and some might fine lower-order whoppery in the morning session.
We're not sure how confident England were that Australia's middle order would showcase how Simon it is, but that's kind of what happened after Bresnan's stemwinder of a delivery dismissed David Warner. The resilience seemed to just drain away as if it had been floating in the toilet bowl waiting for someone to flush.
It's not all bad news for Australia though. In Rogers, Clarke and Harris, they've unearthed some talented young cricketers for the future.32 Appeals
Flattening stuff with Ian Bell
When did Ian Bell turn into a big, relentless steamroller? He always used to be a two-seater sports car. He was sleek and flash, but entirely impractical when you came to do the big shop.
These days he's not just practical, he's reliable as well. His big engine chunters away as he flattens mile upon mile of tarmac for the benefit of his team-mates. If they later run out of fuel, he goes back and gives them a tow.
In the last Ashes series, Alastair Cook and Jonathan Trott scored incredibly heavily. But that was different. That was about ensuring they made as many runs as possible. The 2013 Ashes has been more about whether a batsman can make any runs at all and for the most part it hasn't happened – unless The Steamroller's been at the crease.
We'll tell you what: Ian Bell was not due a big score today.5 Appeals
I.Ron Bell puts overs into Aussie legs
Maybe we should consider him two different batsmen – Ian Bell, the guy who chips one to cover, and I.Ron Bell, the guy who plays these sorts of innings. (Make your own metallurgical puns. We had a look at the iron Wikipedia page with a view to coming up with some, saw the term 'sandwich compound' and got distracted.)
It's also worth noting that Bell's contributed to putting 133 overs into Aussie legs. We all know the Aussies love a bit of rotation (possibly influenced by Kylie Minogue) and with the next Test starting on Thursday, boring stuff like batting like a ploddotron for most of a day can have a double impact.
How's the Test going? The whole thing's made us feel giddy and we've lost all critical faculties.28 Appeals
What's today's barometer reading?
Some read yesterday's post as being criticism of Ian Bell, which wasn't really how it was intended. We just feel that of all the England players, his performances are the ones that most closely correlate with how the team fares. On day five of the third Test against New Zealand, Bell played out of his skin.
Not literally, that would be hideous – although it would doubtless disconcert the bowlers sufficiently that they would struggle with their lines and lengths. No, he just played very well. In fact maybe that's a more appropriately functional phrase for a delightfully, fantastically functional performance. On day five of the third Test against New Zealand, Ian Bell played very well.
Matt Prior is garnering the headlines and we certainly aren't saying that he doesn't deserve them, but Bell's contribution was more sizeable – not in runs maybe, but as treasured fount of wisdom, poet, philosopher and all-round good egg, Bert, once pointed out, runs are not the correct unit of measurement when batting for a draw.
With that in mind, here is an alternative scorecard for England's second innings:
- Alastair Cook – 145
- Nick Compton – 3
- Jonathan Trott – 66
- Ian Bell – 271
- Steven Finn – 10
- Joe Root – 79
- Jonny Bairstow – 19
- Matt Prior – 182
- Stuart Broad – 77
- Jimmy Anderson – 2
- Monty Panesar – 5
This isn't the first time that Bell's made an enormous contribution towards securing a draw and nor was it the first time he's sidestepped much of his due acclaim through being dismissed before the end of the match. The characters present in the final act are deemed to be the heroes because that's the way conventional narratives work, but who did the bulk of the work?
There's a feeling in cricket that unless a batsman sees it through to the finish he has somehow failed, but that's a rather childish black and white way of looking at a team game. The guy who cuts the ribbon to open a building hasn't built it. Look at the man hours for a true reflection of construction efforts.
Ian Bell put in a four-and-a-half hour shift. That may not be a full working day and he may have been leaning on his bat at the non-striker's end for half of it, but it's probably more than we've ever managed.31 Appeals
The barometer says England never looked like winning
Talk of an England win has been unjustifiably common during this Test. You never know what's likely to happen in a match, but you can tailor conversation according to likelihood and at no point has an England victory seemed probable. Even talking about how they could possibly engineer a winning situation from the difficult positions they've found themselves in has been to remain wilfully blind to reality. A draw was appearing a fairly lofty aim from quite early on.
We're fond of saying that averages only tell you what has already happened and that certainly applies here. Brendon McCullum only averages 30-odd with the bat, but he's made England miserable all series without reaching three figures. Peter Fulton's average has only reached the thirties thanks to a hundred in each innings of this match, but that kind of a contribution is a great deal more meaningful in terms of the series than what Ian Bell did against Pakistan in 2006.
We're increasingly feeling like Ian Bell is a kind of barometer of form for England. We often talk about a team winning when one particular player performs well, but when Ian Bell plays badly, England are terrible. Or is it the other way round? It's almost as if he responds to the pervading air of underachievement and thinks: "Right, time for eight off 89 balls."
Bell's still in, of course, but his obduracy seems less like resilience and more like the foreshadowing of a collapse – a contributory factor, even, if it brings unwarranted nervousness to the young batsmen who follow him.
Good luck to Bell and good luck to England, because they'll need it. Whatever their averages, New Zealand's bowlers have threatened England's batsmen almost all series.32 Appeals
Bell and Pietersen bat for no-one
Sometimes you bat for your team-mates. Let's imagine there's only one threatening bowler in the opposition attack. If you can put some mileage into his legs, you make it easier for the batsmen who follow you. To some extent, it doesn't really matter how many runs you score. You are making an investment on behalf of the team.
When Graeme Swann dismissed Yuvraj Singh in India's first innings, he had 4-78, but he was starting to flag and he eventually finished with 5-144. The lower order had faced a different bowler.
India's batsmen didn't really get after Swann. Instead, they played in the knowledge that even spinners tire. Gambhir extracted 44 deliveries from the off-spinner, making just 14 runs in that time; Pujara scored 62 off 133; Kohli scored 7 off 30; and Yuvraj scored 25 off 49.
Those are dull statistics, but if you can commit the opposition's best bowler to 51 overs of toil, you aren't just surviving him, you are eroding him as well.
In England's first innings, Kevin Pietersen and Ian Bell made no such investment. The latter didn't even take a sighter. The former will doubtless argue: "That's just the way I play" and to that, we can only reply: "What, badly?"
Bowling workload doesn't make the highlights reel, but it matters. How much was Cook and Compton's decent second innings opening stand the result of the incremental loss of zip from India's spinners? Ashwin and Ojha bowled 49 of the 71 overs in England's first innings, but they could have been asked to do more work.
If those two bowlers recover their vim and venom overnight, England's openers will try and do their job. Bell and Pietersen will benefit should they be successful. Maybe next time they could return the favour.3 Appeals
Ian Bell wants to play one-day cricket
In a parallel universe, players and fans care about one-day internationals – or, more accurately, one-day internationals are worth caring about. In this universe, we'll have to muddle through, making the best of flukes and serendipity.
Kevin Pietersen retired from one-day internationals because on the morning of a game, he felt like most of us do when we have to go to work. Damn him if you want, but we don't expect people to pay to watch us add conditional formatting to a spreadsheet. Cricket's different. You want to see people who aren't just going through the motions.
With Ashes wins and stacks of Test hundreds to his name, Ian Bell should be pretty fulfilled. He should be above one-day internationals, but he's not. Because he's always been crap at them, he feels rejected and undervalued, so he's going to try and put that right. Good news for England and good news if you're in a ground, struggling to suppress the feeling that you're witnessing contractual obligations being fulfilled.
We'd prefer to see a Kevin Pietersen who gave a toss about one-day cricket, but there's no such thing. As such, we're slightly better off with an Ian Bell who's keen to do well.
What happens when Bell's proved his point is another matter – hopefully he'll follow Pietersen's lead. Maybe then the cricket world will start to comprehend that the 'best' players only warrant that adjective when they are fit and motivated to perform.7 Appeals
Ian Bell: Lord Megachief of Gold 2011
That's right – Ian Bell. Weird but true.
Dale Steyn came pretty close to becoming the second player to earn a promotion to Grand Lord Megachief of Gold, but Ian Bell's year was just too ridiculous to overlook.
Some numbers
11 Test innings, 950 runs, five hundreds, an average of 118.75 and he scored at about four runs an over as well. That's the kind of year that can sway even someone who once made indifference to Ian Bell an official editorial stance.
And we did need some swaying as well. We never wanted to name an English player Lord Megachief of Gold. We didn't want such a respectable award to be sullied by allegations of bias. There shouldn't be any danger of that, considering the above.
Some words
For his first couple of innings of 2011, it was easy to overlook Bell. He hit hundreds in both of them, but they were the usual 'someone else got there first' hundreds.
The first was at Sydney where England won the Ashes. The second was against Sri Lanka and that series saw some selfless batting from the man. As well as that support act hundred, there was a solo effort in the third Test and some feisty declaration batting sandwiched in between. It's that flexibility that elevates Bell above Alastair Cook in our eyes. He is now seemingly a batsman for all situations.
Number three
Ian Bell had always bleated on about being a number three batsman to anyone within earshot while simultaneously making an extraordinarily compelling case that he was anything but that. Put him in the middle order and he scored runs quite happily, but move him to three and suddenly Tim Munton was his batting role model.
Midway through the second Test against India, he got yet another chance at three after Jonathan Trott knacked his shoulder in the field. England had conceded a first innings deficit of 67 and then lost Alastair Cook in the fourth over of their second innings. Bell hit 159 and England won by 319 runs.
Out and in like a fiddler's elbow
Of course the dopey knobhead undermined his efforts to some degree by getting himself temporarily run-out. India's noble decision to allow him to bat on overshadows that innings a bit, so Bell needed to do something else.
In his last Test innings of 2011, he hit 235. England won by an innings. From winning the Ashes to becoming the top-ranked Test side, Ian Bell was there throughout. He has played so well that we now actually give a toss whether he's in the team or not. It's a staggering transformation.
Congratulations, Ian. You are Lord Megachief of Gold 2011.18 Appeals

A so-called "people's pledge" has been hammered out and agreed to by the three leading democratic candidates running for governor. The goal is to limit outside spending.
To limit that outside spending, Clay Pell, Gina Raimondo, and Angel Taveras have agreed to a pledge calling for any candidate who benefits from an ad bought by an outside group to make a charitable donation for the same amount of the ad buy.
Gina Raimondo's campaign for governor wants to reach an agreement with Angel Taveras and Clay Pell to eliminate outside spending in the expected three-way Democratic primary, her campaign manager said Tuesday.
"We want an agreement that eliminates any and all outside spending," said Eric Hyers.

ESSEX Essex supervisor Ronald Jackson is keeping a very close eye on on the federal Water Resources Development Act of 2007: $5 million is on the line for his community.
Last week U.S. Congressman John M. McHugh (R-NY) announced that the House of Representatives voted 38140 to pass the Water Resources Development Act of 2007. The legislation authorizes Congressman McHughs request of $5 million in federal funding for wastewater infrastructure in Essex. Currently the hamlet has no municipal sewer system.
Im pleased that the House of Representatives has approved my efforts to bring crucial improvements to wastewater treatment in Essex, McHugh said in a press release. The people of northern New York have a right to clean water and proper wastewater treatment.
McHughs announcement met with a positive, though cautious, reaction from Jackson.
In the best case scenario we could start construction of the plant this coming spring and hook people up starting the next spring, said Jackson.
He admitted that a more realistic scenario would see the project start in spring 2009. The projected cost for 2008 through 2009 construction seasons is $7.2 million.
Currently the project has $1 million from the administration of former Gov. George Pataki and $500,000 in bond-act money. The remainder of the funds for the project would be secured with a grant and loan from United States Department of Agriculture Rural Development and a loan from New York State Environmental Facilities Corporation.
The legislation is awaiting passage in the Senate passage before moving onto the president desk for signature. If approved at conference, the funding will be in the 2008 budget, due April 1, 2008.
Jackson said getting a sewer system was the highest priority improvement project for Essex.
We drink water from the lake, eat fish from the lake, swim in the lake and the lake is our number one tourist attraction, said Jackson.
Jackson explained that a wastewater plant will greatly lower the phosphate levels of the lakewaer, and help prevent toxic blue-green algae and the green slime found on shore.

ATHOL - A Thurman career soldier who's been serving a tour of duty in Afghanistan was welcomed home by about 50 townspeople in a banquet held Jan. 10 in the patriotically decorated the town hall.
Army Sgt. First Class Kevin Olden of Bowen Hill was honored by family, friends and neighbors and local residents attending the luncheon event.
He and his family members arrived in a black limousine, and Olden was cheered by the group as he was surrounded by friends and took his place at the head table.
A drill sergeant, Olden has served 28 years in the Army, and just completed a tour of duty in Afghanistan.
Thurman Town Supervisor Red Pitkin gave a short speech and all were invited to eat at the buffet prepared by many town residents and friends.
Olden thanked the townspeople, on behalf of troops in Afghanistan, for the gift packages Thurman residents routinely send overseas.
A cake decorated in red white and blue - and donated by the Warrensburg Grand Union - was cut and served to the group. A video, narrated by Olden, was shown depicting the troops in Afghanistan.
Following the ceremony, townsfolk sat and talked for hours.
Olden said he will be presenting the town with a silk map of Afghanistan and Iraq. Town officials plan on revamping a display of artifacts relating to local veterans and those still serving in the military.
The committee organizing the event expresses special thanks to Paula Hubert, Maria Ligon and Ruth Keller.
Also, thanks go to Terry and Nancy Beadnell for the flower centerpiece and corsage, to Glenda Duell for the limousine, and to all who sent food dishes and helped. They also thank Joan Harris for her assistance in launching the event.

CHANGE ROCKS - The Setlist
Change Rocks Brings Together Dead, Allmans One Mo' Time
The Dead reunited last night (Monday, October 13) for the first time in four years, thrilling a sold-out crowd of devoted fans when they performed in State College, PA. The "Change Rocks" concert, which also featured the Allman Brothers Band, was held at the 15,000-capacity Bryce Jordan Center on the campus of Penn State University to raise awareness for Senator Barack Obama and the upcoming November 4 election.
Original Dead members Bob Weir, Phil Lesh, Bill Kreutzmann and Mickey Hart were joined throughout the whole show by RatDog's Jeff Chimenti on keyboards and Allman Brothers Band/Gov't Mule/ex-Phil & Friends and The Dead guitarist Warren Haynes. They tore through a 15-song, two-hour set that included such Dead classics as "U.S. Blues," "Franklin's Tower," "Playin' In The Band," "Dark Star," "St. Stephen" and "Touch of Grey." The crowd--a mix of college students, longtime Deadheads and Barack Obama supporters--were on their feet from the first notes of show opener "Truckin,'" through the psychedelic explorations of "Dark Star," to the end of "Not Fade Away," the night's closer.
In a video-taped message shown between sets, Senator Obama told the audience:
"For twenty months, I've been traveling this country from town to town-even developing a 'Touch of Grey' of my own. And on that journey, I've seen Americans who are hurting under the politics and policies of Washington. They need change, and I am running for President to bring about that change.
"On November 4th, you'll get to make a choice between two different candidates with two dramatically different visions for our future. You'll get to choose which direction you want to take our country. I believe that now is the time to put Americans back to work and rebuild our middle class; to live up to the promise of affordable health care for everyone; to guarantee a quality education for all our children; to end our dependence on Middle East oil; and to bring this war in Iraq to a responsible end. We can do all that. And on November 5th, I hope to announce that we 'Ain't Wasting Time No More.'"
The Dead last performed in 2004 on their "Wave That Flag" tour. In February of this year, Hart, Lesh and Weir played a "Deadheads For Obama" show at the Warfield in San Francisco, and last year Weir, Kreutzmann and Hart performed at a post-inauguration for Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi.

p.s. Can anyone point me to the archived Allman set?
Not Fade Away!
Listened to the stream whilst downloading and thought it rocked, as far as the ratdog board, well you always hear know it alls digesting each and every detail and critisizing this or that. I will never understand why even bother to buy a ticket or listen if all you can do is bitch, complain, and funniest of all, trying to second guess what they are going to play.
Let the words be yours, I am done with mine.
Not Fade Away!
Allmans were great! Dead was really good, seems like they never let Warren really achieve liftoff. Transitions were a bit rough, Still, very enjoyable. Would like to see a tour of this. Probably should spend some rehearsal time beforehand. Whats up with the missing merchandise? No T shirts!! Nothing inside at all!! Did the Republican Party stop the shipment from arriving? I mean really, there should have been a huge Obama merch set up inside to help get the message out. No buttons, stickers, event posters, tshirts.... nuthin......
Can someone please explain this to me...........
Still a great time was had by all.
most folks over at the RATDOG site are just complaining and trashing the show. The main adjective being used is "train wreck."
I'm not sure what show they saw, but the show I was at last night rocked out! Nothin' left to do but smile smile smile, in my humble opinion.
Thanks Keith Litzenberger for getting this up. What a pleasure to listen to it today, and with the Allmans tacked on. Made my day.
So much could be said....short & sweet: A ON night for the boys & a super nice family vibe in the lot...Very nicely played and grateful......................
I need some help downloading the show? not really sure what to do with this torrent stuff. any help would be grately appreciated.
~*Standing on the moon with nothing left to do, a lovely view of Heaven but I'd rather be with you*~
Couldn't agree more.....
Grate time and a Grate show!!!!!!
Woweeee what a GRATE TIME!!!
~*Standing on the moon with nothing left to do, a lovely view of Heaven but I'd rather be with you*~
The boyz should release this one as a download and fund raiser for Obama

1. Line a microwave safe plate with parchment paper and spay some oil.
2. Clean and slice your eggplant into thin slices.
3. Line up the slices with enough space in between for a thorough cooking.
4. Season with salt and pepper and spray a little oil on top.
5. Cook for about 8 to 12 minutes according the setting of your microwave.
6. Enjoy with evening tea or side it up with rice. It goes great with curd rice.
Slice the eggplant as you progress with the cooking. Do not slice up the whole thing to begin with, as they tend to turn brown when in contact with air.

GAO says EPA chemical management policy lacks teeth
5:19 AM MDT | May 3, 2013 | —Rebecca Coons
A report from the Government Accountability Office (GAO) says that despite EPA's increased efforts to assess and regulate potentially harmful chemicals under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA), the agency's approach is impractical and ultimately fails to address its lack of authority under TSCA. "Since 2009, [EPA] has made progress implementing its new approach to managing toxic chemicals under its existing [TSCA] authority[,] particularly by increasing efforts to obtain chemical toxicity and exposure data and initiating chemical risk...

Anyone else out there interested?
I am thinking of starting this spring with one morning a week, since I don't know how it will go or if there will be interested folks in my area.
If you're in my area and are interested, let me know! With folks interested in teaching or attending, we could plan bigger!
My little guy just turned 2, and my community has a couple of acres of forest :)
Thinking of calling it Fox in the Forest
It's a great idea, although my boys are too big now, but I wanted to give you this link of another forest preschool opening in the fall in Woodinville:
There is also Wilderness Awareness School (http://www.wildernessawareness.org/), and I believe Tiny Treks has a preschool program as well. (though those are not officially "forest" groups I don't think, but they are nature oriented)
Clearly, there is interest--but most of these groups have their own private land (Tiny Treks didn't though--and you might be able to get around that since it's just one day a week and I assume you're not going to be preschool licensed--it'd be more like a rec activity, right?) . You may not be permitted to use city/county public lands for your business.
Best of luck!

NFC Top Three Matchups- Week 3 Handicapping Report
- Updated: September 18, 2012
NFC Top Three Matchups – Week 3
We are just two weeks into the 2012 NFL regular season there are just a handful of teams that have emerged undefeated which is already sending shock waves through the Super Bowl futures odds. The following is a handicapping guide for the three of the top games in the NFC this Sunday with lines provided by Bookmaker.
Sunday, Sept. 23
Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs. Dallas Cowboys (-9) Total Line: 45.5
Tampa Bay gave away a golden opportunity to start the season 2-0 after blowing a 14-point lead in a 41-34 loss to the Giants as a nine-point road underdog. The Buccaneers defense will have to find a way to quickly get back to the form that held Carolina to just 10 points on opening day.
Consistency problems once again reared its ugly head for Dallas in a 27-7 loss to Seattle as a three-point road favorite. This followed a very solid 24-17 victory over the Giants as a 3.5-point road underdog on opening day. Tony Romo completed fewer than 58 percent of his passes against the Seahawks and the Cowboys managed just 49 yards on the ground.
The Buccaneers are 0-5 straight-up in their last five road games and 1-4 SU in their last five games against the Cowboys. The total has stayed UNDER in seven of the last nine meetings. Dallas is has won eight of the last nine meetings SU when playing at home.
San Francisco 49ers (-6) vs. Minnesota Vikings Total Line: 47
San Francisco remains the toast of the NFC after outscoring its first two opponents 57-41 on its way to a 2-0 start. Alex Smith threw for 226 yards and two touchdowns against the Lions and offense added 148 yards on the ground. It now leads the NFC in average rushing yards per game with 167.
Minnesota escaped with a 26-23 overtime win over Jacksonville on opening day as a 3.5-point home favorite but was on the wrong end of a three-point loss to Indianapolis as a 2.5-point road favorite this past Sunday.
The 49ers are 1-4 ATS in their last five games on the road and 1-4 SU in their last five games against Minnesota. The total has stayed UNDER in five of the last seven meetings on the road against the Vikings. Minnesota has won five of its last six home games against San Francisco.
Philadelphia Eagles (-5.5) vs. Arizona Cardinals Total Line: 44.5
Philadelphia is 2-0 SU by the slimmest of margins after posting its second-straight one-point victory. This past Sunday it escaped with a 24-23 win over Baltimore as once again Michael Vick led the offense on a late fourth- quarter touchdown drive to pull out the win. Turnovers and penalties continue to plague this team, but the Eagles lead the league in total offense with an average of 471 yards per game.
Arizona escaped with a narrow 20-18 upset over New England as a 13.5-point road underdog when a late Patriot field goal attempt to win the game went wide to left. Arizona also sweated-out a 20-16 win over Seattle on opening day as a 2.5-point home dog. John Skelton's status could be a game-time decision, so look for Kevin Kolb to get the start at quarterback against his old team.
The Eagles have now won five straight games dating back to the end of last season. The total has stayed UNDER in five of their last six road games, but it has gone OVER in four of their last five games in Arizona. Philadelphia has lost six of its last eight road games against the Cardinals SU and is 0-4 ATS in its last four.

I had a very unpleasant time at the Maynard Arms. It was crowded and very loud with lots of children. The food was very bland and mediocre. The drinks were okay but the price was high and service slow. Very unremarkable inside also. Although they had a very relaxed atmosphere - it is just not for me.more
Pleasant enough pub just off the main Crouch End broadway.
They have a screen for sports and a slightly raised area over to the left that, while it is essentially rather pointless, looks right somehow. Seems like a nice place to sit by the window and kill time.
Enjoyed an excellent pint of one of my favourite drinks, the St Edmonds Gold and also managed to slip in a taste of a guest ale...more
if they had better beers on tap it would be perfect.
Best place to watch sport in Crouch End. Decent-sized cosy outside garden bit too for smokers.more
A very relaxed place just off all the main often overcrowded bars and restaurants of Crouch End.
Helpful, pleasant staff and a good selection of wine & beers.
The food here is always well cooked with a choice of light bites sharers and mains, eaten here a few times now and never been dissappointed.
A great place to relax and unwind with friends or family.more
It is always a nice surprise to find a quiet, friendly, safe-feeling pub in London, and I have only recently discovered this one so am singing its praises. The Maynard Arms is large, and has a good outside area with big tables and - yes! - heaters! Non-environmentally friendly, but who cares when you need chain-fags with your pints? The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. It's not the...more

What's next
After those first magical steps toward independence, your child will begin to master the finer points of mobility:
- At 14 months, your toddler should be able to stand alone. She can probably squat down and then stand back up again, and she might even work on walking backward.
- By 15 months, your child may be pretty good at walking. She may enjoy push-and-pull toys while she toddles. At this age she will walk with her legs fairly far apart and her feet pointed outward . This is normal and helps her maintain stability.
- At about 16 months, your child will begin to take an interest in going up and down stairs –though she probably won't navigate them with your help until her next birthday.
- It's likely your child will be a proficient walker by 18 months. She might like to climb all over the furniture, and she can probably motor up stairs – though she'll still need help getting back down for a few more months. She may try to kick a ball, though she won't always be successful, and she probably likes to dance to music.
- At 25 or 26 months, your child's steps will be more even, and she'll have the hang of the smooth heel-to-toe motion adults use. She's also getting better at jumping.
- By the time your child's third birthday rolls around, many of her basic movements will have become second nature. She'll be able to walk up and down stairs with one foot on each stair. She'll no longer need to focus energy on walking, standing, running, or jumping, though some actions, such as standing on tiptoes or on one foot, might still require concentration and effort.
Your role
As your baby learns to pull himself up to a standing position, he may need some help figuring out how to get back down again. If he gets stuck and cries for you, don't just pick him up and plop him down. Show him how to bend his knees so he can sit down without toppling over, and let him give it a try himself.
You can encourage your baby to walk by standing or kneeling in front of him and holding out your hands. Or you might hold both his hands and let him walk toward you. He'll probably also enjoy a toddle truck or push toy that he can hold on to as he walks. (Look for toddle toys that are stable and have a wide base of support.)
The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) strongly discourages the use of baby walkers. Because they make it so easy for your child to get around, walkers can prevent a baby's upper leg muscles from developing correctly. And because they make it possible for a child to reach hot items or poisons that he wouldn't normally be able to get to, they make him less safe.
You can also hold off on introducing shoes until your baby is walking around outside or on rough or cold surfaces regularly. Going barefoot helps improve balance and coordination.
As always, make sure your baby has a soft, safe environment in which to hone his new skills. Follow standard childproofing guidelines, and never leave your baby unattended.
When to be concerned
Don't fret if your child is simply taking her time. But if your c hild doesn't stand with support at 12 months, can't walk at 18 months, or isn't able to walk steadily at the age of 2 years, bring it up with her doctor.
Keep in mind that babies have different timetables, and premature babies may reach this and other milestones later than their peers. If your baby was premature, you should date her milestones from your due date, which pediatricians refer to as your baby's adjusted age.

House GOP Invites McCain To Join Protest; Challenges Comrad Pelosi To Stop Them
Republican congressman says presidential candidate welcome to speak on floor and credits bloggers for getting the word out.
By Jeff Poor
Business & Media Institute
Republican presidential candidate Sen. John McCain may be thrust into the public spat between House Republicans and Democrats over the Democratic leadership's decision to take summer recess without vote on offshore oil drilling.
The Democratic leadership allowed the legislature's scheduled summer break to begin August 1 without holding an up-or-down vote on increasing domestic oil drilling. Republicans stayed behind to protest the decision and have been delivering speeches on the floor of House in support of more drilling.
In a briefing with bloggers in House Minority Leader John Boehner's office August 5, Rep. John Shadegg, R-Ariz ,said he would "love to have McCain come speak on the floor" as part of the protest. He said he believes inviting a senator to speak on the House floor would not violate House rules and challenged House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., to stop it.
"Yes, I think it is something he [McCain] could do. I mean, technically, we are trying to abide by the rules of procedure for the House," Shadegg said. "[W]e begin with a prayer, the pledge and we are speaking from the well -- with one exception, we're not taking questions from the gallery, but we are trying to accord ourselves normal decorum from the House floor."
McCain told an audience at the National Label Company in eastern Pennsylvania on August 4 he would be willing to come off the campaign trail and back to Washington to debate a new energy policy and urged Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Barack Obama to do the same.
According to Shadegg, the only way McCain could be prevented from participating in the protest would be by an intervention from Democratic Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi.
***** Meanwhile, on another front, Barack Hussein Obama (aka BO) was busy being instructed on the prople use of a tire pressure gauge...We, of course, have some suggestions as to where he could most appropriately place the aforementioned appliance....ahem....

31 year old woman | Revere, MA, USA | Seeking men 21-35 within 50 miles
I'm that girl who will make you feel like your ten again!! Don't be scared say hello!!
Hello, I guess I'll start out by introducing myself, okay so my name is Darlene. I am a very outgoing and funny person, my girls refer to me as the life of the party. I love doing almost anything. For example, I love going to dinner, going to bars don't worry I don't drink that much lol, I love going to the movies, and I also enjoy late night walks on the beach. I am really down to earth so as long as I'm doing something I'm happy. Ohh did I mention I love sports, so one of my favorite things to do in the world is play around the world at the basketball court. Let's see where your b-ball game is at lol. Okay, so I'm on here to find a good heart (MAN). If you are someone who is open to finding a good woman to take home to momma than I am that girl. I am not really looking for a friend!! I would love to find someone to bring home to my family and be proud of them. If I sound interesting to you then respond if not don't waste my time. Darlene
