Amazon abandons EU tax avoidance strategy
Amazon has changed the tax practices of its European arm following the United Kingdom's clampdown on conglomerates that are shifting their local profits to other countries, according to The Guardian.
Amazon has changed the tax practices of its European arm following the United Kingdom's clampdown on conglomerates that are shifting their local profits to other countries, according to The Guardian.
While the move would result in a larger tax burden for the e-commerce firm, it would enable Amazon to avoid the UK's new Diverted Profits Tax. This came into effect last month and imposed an additional 25 per cent tax on companies that artificially channel their earnings elsewhere.
Previously, all of the company's revenue from Europe was funnelled into its Luxembourg-registered subsidiary Amazon EU Sarl. On 1 May, Amazon's local units in the UK, Spain, Germany, and Italy started recording their respective earnings.
Another reason that Amazon changed its tax practice was the European Commission's ongoing investigation into the firm's tax arrangement with Luxembourg since 2003. In January 2015, the watchdog alleged that this set-up might be infringing on European Union rules as it gives Amazon a price advantage over its rivals.
Similarly, the regulatory body is also investigating Apple's tax arrangement with Ireland. In that case, it wants to determine if the iPhone maker is allowed to pay a tax rate of less than 2 per cent despite the country's corporate tax rate being set at 12.5 per cent.
If the European Union rules that this practice is unlawful, the tech giant could be compelled to fork out billions of euros for unpaid taxes over the past ten years.

MOSCOW, December 29 (Itar-Tass) — The chances remain to reach a political settlement in Syria, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said after the negotiations with UN and Arab League envoy Lakhdar Brahimi here on Saturday.
"The current situation in Syria is quite tense, the confrontation is escalating, the number of casualties among the civilians is growing," the minister noted. "But we also share the opinion that the chances remain for a political settlement. Our common duty is to use this chance to the maximum degree," Lavrov underlined. "We agreed that the agreements, which were fixed in the Geneva communiqu·, should be taken as a basis for our efforts, and particularly on this basis Brahimi conducts the so-called shuttle diplomacy."
Saudi Arabia and Iran should be involved in the Action Group on Syria, Sergei Lavrov believes.
"The Action Group mechanism is quite needed," the minister said. "We still believe that Saudi Arabia and Iran should be included in the number of its participants," Lavrov underlined.
The refusal of the National Coalition for Syrian Revolutionary and Opposition Forces to conduct a dialogue with the government is a dead end, Sergei Lavrov said.
"When the National Coalition was formed we drew attention to the fact that it was stated in their platform that their position is uncompromising, their goal is the overthrow of the regime. This runs counter to the Geneva Agreements. Their refusal to have any dialogue with the government is a dead-end position."

The National Weather Service says today's statewide tornado drills are a "Go."
At 1 p.m., the National Weather Service will issue a statewide test tornado watch and at 1:45 p.m. a statewide test tornado warning. This drill ends at 2 p.m.
A second drill will occur at 6:45 p.m. with another mock tornado warning. There is no risk of severe weather in the state on Thursday.
Many Wisconsin radio and TV stations will participate in the drill. In addition, NOAA Weather Radio All Hazards (also known as emergency weather radios) will issue alert messaging. Many outdoor warning sirens across the state will also be activated. This is an ideal opportunity for schools, businesses and families to practice safety procedures for severe weather.
These drills are possible through a partnership with the National Weather Service, Wisconsin Broadcasters Association and Wisconsin Emergency Management.

Construction is in progress for the expansion of the Ho-Chunk Gaming facility along U.S. Highway 45 in the town of Wittenberg. The expanded facility is in violation of state gaming compacts, according to the neighboring Stockbridge-Munsee Band of Mohicans, based near Bowler.
Contributed Illustration
This rendering provided by Ho-Chunk Gaming shows the new hotel and renovations planned for the Wittenberg property. The Stockbridge-Munsee Band of Mohicans has filed a federal lawsuit to block the project.
The Stockbridge-Munsee Band of Mohicans filed a federal lawsuit Wednesday asking a judge to block another tribe from expanding a competing casino, arguing the project violates both tribes' gambling compacts with the state.
The Ho-Chunk Nation wants to add hundreds of slot machines, table games, a restaurant and a hotel to its casino in Wittenberg, and construction has begun. The Stockbridge-Munsee say the development, less than 20 miles from its North Star Casino, could lure away gamblers and cost the tribe $22 million per year.
"We don't relish having to take this step, but do so to protect our sovereign right to self-determination," Stockbridge-Munsee President Shannon Holsey said in a news release announcing the lawsuit.
The ThedaCare board of trustees on Tuesday named Dr. Imran Andrabi as the new president and chief executive officer of the Wisconsin-based health care organization.
Andrabi will join ThedaCare on June 19, following the retirement of Dr. Dean Gruner, who has led the system for nine years.
Andrabi, 49, comes to ThedaCare from Mercy Health, a nonprofit Catholic health care ministry serving Ohio and Kentucky. He began with Mercy Health (formerly Catholic Healthcare Partners) as an intern and medical resident 25 years ago and steadily advanced to become regional president and chief executive officer of the Toledo region in 2015.
At Mercy Health, Andrabi consistently led his team in achieving outstanding quality care performance, improving customer experience, as well as growing the system and the number of physicians recruited, according to a statement released Wednesday by ThedaCare.

Bonduel School Board members have approved budget cuts for teachers, busing and 4-K services, while holding back on other cuts that have stirred public opposition in the aftermath of a defeated referendum.
The board agreed Monday to trim $276,000 in spending next year for three elementary school teachers, other staff, one school bus route and daily 4-year-old kindergarten service.
Board members shelved additional spending cuts, however, that would impact student lunches, athletic programs, the elementary school principal position and a part-time music teacher.
Parents, teachers and others at the meeting Monday spoke out against cuts to their favorite programs, and many urged the school district to hold another referendum that could ease the district's financial troubles by generating new revenue.
The board agreed to hold a special meeting April 24 to discuss putting an "emergency referendum" on the ballot.
Shawano officials Tuesday approved increasing the city's debt limit to borrow $1.85 million for park improvements that had been overwhelmingly supported by voters in an advisory referendum earlier this month.
Common Council members then followed that up by green-lighting the borrowing itself in a separate resolution.
The council held a lengthy discussion of the debt limit and how it might affect the city's bond rating, though it was ultimately felt the small increase would have a negligible impact.
The city previously did not have an official resolution on the books limiting its debt, but has had a policy that its debt would be capped at 80 percent of what the state says it could borrow. The policy is laid out in the budget approved each year by city officials, stating the city's debt limit should be 20 percent more stringent than the state mandate.
Shawano County Board members soon will be equipped with iPads to put more county information and better communication at their fingertips.
The board agreed Tuesday to spend $12,000 to provide the portable online devices for all 27 county supervisors.
If enough supervisors get in the habit of using their iPads, officials calculate that the investment will pay for itself within a year through savings on paper and postage.
Supervisor Gene Hoppe urged his colleagues to embrace their new $450 electronic devices.
"Once you get used to it, you'll find out that it's the greatest thing in the world," Hoppe said.
Not everybody was so quick to endorse the move.
Supervisor Deb Noffke said she suspects some supervisors have no internet service in their homes, which means they will be unable to use their iPads at home.

A spring tradition is underway in northeastern Wisconsin as the sturgeon spawning has started on parts of the Wolf River.
The giant prehistoric fish spend most of their time in the Lake Winnebago System, but during the run, they're easy to spot at locations on the Wolf and Embarrass rivers, WLUK-TV reported.
Ryan Koenigs, a sturgeon biologist for the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources, said the sturgeon usually start to spawn in warmer weather as the water temperature increases. He said crews netted and tagged about 200 fish Monday, including one as large as 78 inches in Shiocton.
"They're huge," said Donna Hoelzel, a Neenah resident. "To me, they're huge. But it's amazing that they get such a variety of lengths. They don't know what they're getting, but whatever they come up with, it's beautiful."

Alacer Contemplates 2-Stage Development for Gediktepe • Philippine Audit Suggests Suspension for 20 Mines
Manas Resources, an Australia-based gold producer, said it signed two separate agreements relating to the sale of its mining assets in the Kyrgyz Republic. The sales will bring Manas total consideration of $10.5 million.
Angkor Gold Corp. announced that the Cambodian government recently approved the Environmental and Social Impact Assessment for Mesco Gold (Cambodia) Ltd.'s Phum Syarung mine located in northeastern Cambodia.
Lydian International held a groundbreaking ceremony at its Amulsar gold project in Armenia, on August 19, as it moves into the construction phase.
Located in the south-central region of the country, Amulsar is expected to be the largest gold mine in Armenia, producing an average of 243,000 oz/y of gold over the initial five years of operations. Initial 10-year life-of-mine total cash cost has been estimated by the company at $509/oz.
As construction progresses and operations begin, Lydian said it will also be evaluating future additional potential from currently defined inferred mineral resources and, ultimately, from open extensions at depth.
Production is expected to begin in 2018 using conventional open-pit mining and heap-leach processing.

White Wines of Northern Italy
At their best, Alto Adige's wines deliver superb quality and a level of value matched by few regions in Italy... Friuli's oenological landscape is one of the most diverse and multi-faceted in Italy. An extraordinary range of sites and micro-climates, along with influences from neighboring Slovenia and Austria, yields wines that at their best are compelling. ANTONIO GALLONIRead More
Yabby Lake Single Vineyard Pinot Noir 2016
What a beauty of a wine. We just tried his Single Vineyard Pinot Noir 2016. Tom did not make any Single Block wines this year so the quality of this fruit is above reproach. Always massively popular and generally a shoe-in on the awards circuit, we would advise buying quickly before it goes.Read More
Hugel Gentil 2015
The Hugel Gentil is a wine that always drinks well and at $20 – it is a steal! In the brilliant 2015 vintage, this wine is not to be missed and its versatility with food makes it the obvious choice for the Australian dinner table.Read More
Giaconda 2015 Pre Arrival
These wines have a super-cult status and, given the tiny production, are extremely difficult to find; they are sold chiefly through restaurants and by mail order. All have a cosmopolitan edge befitting Rick Kinzbrunner's international winemaking experience. The Chardonnay and Pinot Noir are made in contrasting styles: the Chardonnay tight and reserved, the Pinot Noir more variable, but usually opulent and ripe. JAMES HALLIDAYRead More

Savaterre Chardonnay 2015
Beechworth and chardonnay is a conversation we often have, but perhaps it's at a little quieter volume than other regions over the past little while. Savaterre makes a good case to turn up the hearing aids. Honey and toast scents, flinty sulphur, complex fruit profile with lots ofcitrus, then stone fruit, exotic tropicals, with a mesh of savoury, nutty aromas in the mix. MIKE BENNIERead More

Kalleske 2015 Moppa Shiraz
The Kalleske family has been growing and selling grapes on a mixed farming property at Greenock for 140 years. Sixth-generation Troy Kalleske, with brother Tony, established the winery and created the Kalleske label in 1999. The vines vary in age, with the oldest dating back to 1875; the overall average age is around 50 years. All are grown biodynamically and organically. FIVE STARS JAMES HALLIDAYRead More

Gallicia – Mencia & more
Galicia has undergone a vinous revolution in the past decade. For those who have followed the (Re)evolution of Spanish wine over the last three decades this is a familiar story; peasants abandoning the land for the industrial cities in the middle 20th century, vineyards left in disrepair or abandoned and what little wine produced sold in bulk. Galicia's isolation and inhospitable terrain has resulted in a slow recovery of the indigenous grape varieties. SEBASTIANRead More
Cru Mencia Masterclass
This tasting features a selection of the top 'cru' single vineyard Mencia wines prior to release to the Australian market. As much as I dislike cross regional analogies in wine, sometimes they analogies are useful: Mencia is something akin to a cross between wild, spicy Cornas, gamey Cru Beaujolais and supple high-end Burgundy.Read More
Mencia Mania
The revolution in Mencia has come full circle. Traditionally grown in the Ribeira Sacra, Bierzo and Valdeorras regions of north western Spain. During the 1990's a score of young, smart, passionate and dedicated producers have ascended the hills of the regions of initially Bierzo, and then Ribeira Sacra and Valdeorras to discover old vine plots of bush vine Mencia planted on deep schist soils.Read More
Frankland Estate Poison Hill 6 Pack – A Snapshot of Riesling Greatness
The place that Frankland Estate has amongst Australia's top Rieslings is a given and we don't need too much reminding about how well these wines can age but a recent chance to try both the 2013 and 2011 back vintages of their Poison Hill Vineyard Riesling was like a jolt to our senses.Read More

Nocturne – A new wine from Jimmy Watson Winner Julian Langworthy
Decanter Magazine just last month lamented the state of Margaret River wine making.

Penn State's James Franklin to attend State of the Union address
Penn State coach James Franklin will be a guest at President Barack Obama's State of the Union address on Tuesday night.
James Franklin has not been a member of the Pennsylvania community for very long, but he has received the warmest of welcomes from the Penn State community. Franklin's busy first weeks on the job at the Nittany Lions' new football coach will include a trip to Washington, D.C. to attend President Barack Obama's State of the Union address on Tuesday night.
Franklin will be the guest of U.S. Representative Glenn "GT" Thompson, a Penn State graduate from the state's 5th congressional district.
"I am grateful and very appreciative of Rep. Glenn Thompson's invitation to attend the President's State of the Union Address," Franklin said in an official statement. "I look forward to hearing the President's vision for 2014 and beyond and what we, as citizens of the greatest union in the world, can do to help move our nation forward."
The State of the Union will be broadcast across all major networks and is scheduled to begin at 9 p.m. ET.
"With the beginning of a new year, we are filled with a sense of optimism and possibility. The State of the Union offers us the chance to reflect upon the previous year and provides us with a preview of the challenges and opportunities that we face together," Rep. Thompson said in an official release. "Given these sentiments, it's an honor to have Coach Franklin as my guest for this occasion.
"As a proud Penn State alumnus and a life-long Centre County resident, I would like to take this opportunity to offer my congratulations to Coach Franklin on being named as head coach of the Nittany Lions and to welcome him and his family to Happy Valley," Rep. Thompson added.

ASK Blog
Why Can't We Talk?
Communication matters. Organisations are networks of relationships – individuals interacting in pursuit of hopefully shared goals, aims or objectives. Even departments of one must interact with others to be able to clearly identify what others require – or what they require from others – and how best this can be achieved. No desk is an island, not matter how big or deep the metaphorical moat around them might sometimes feel, but when things go wrong or mistakes are made it is common to hear 'communication' being singled out as the diagnosis.
But perhaps something else needs to be said here: that communication – or a lack of it – is more likely to be a symptom than a cause. Think of communication issues as the organisational equivalent of post-adolescent acne or obesity: yes, they're something to tackle, but they have arisen for a reason. What needs to be addressed is the underlying cause, of which there could be several. The following are only a few examples – the list is potentially lengthy.
Unclear Goals or Roles
Why measure management effectiveness?
Because it matters, of course. You're probably familiar with a business management cliché first uttered by Peter Drucker – 'What gets measured gets managed' – but how to measure? The question of management effectiveness becomes more burning when you consider it in the contact of training: while a basic question – "Was is worth it, and what did it achieve?" – should matter to every organisation, few know or attempt to discover the answer.
When it comes to training evaluation, organisations hunger for evidence of two often elusive factors: return on investment (ROI), to prove that their expenditure was not wasted, and increases in productivity. Training and learning that doesn't increase performance wastes not just money but time, energy and optimism. Despite this, many organisations limit evaluation to satisfaction scores: a record that the training took place and was 'enjoyed', but its impact remains elusive.
One reason that more meaning evaluation is rarely undertaken is the perception that it is difficult to do. Management performance, after all, is typically assessed using not one but a number of yardsticks: ASK's own Management Development 360 Degree Feedback tool includes sixty individual competences. No training programme could aspire to address and improve managers' performance in all of these, and we typically gather and facilitate feedback on the 6 – 10 competences most relevant to the scope of the training.
We use this 360 degree instrument at the beginning of our programmes as a diagnostic tool, identifying areas for personal development and providing insights that can drive self-awareness. Re-deploying it after training allows us to measure how far participants have travelled and supports future development activity, but it is also another starting point: the beginning of a measure of their effectiveness.
Hunting, Fishing and Trawling for diversity: the net benefits of promoting women into leadership
Leadership pipelines, succession planning and talent development are on-going organisational headaches. A recent McKinsey Insights article agreed, arguing that "Organizations should learn to hunt, fish, and trawl for the best talent." The problem seems to be one of diversity: where they cast their nets – and what or who they are aiming to catch.
Most organisations (or at least those that don't recruit inward, despite the costs and risks associated) rely on in-house programmes with pre-determined selection criteria. But are they looking for HiPos when they should try a different kettle of fish? Few organisations, McKinsey argue:
[…] scan systematically for the hidden talent that often lurks unnoticed within their own corporate ranks. Sometimes those overlooked leaders remain invisible because of gender, racial, or other biases. Others may have unconventional backgrounds, be reluctant to put themselves forward, or have fallen off (or steered clear of) the standard development path.
That selection and promotion are areas of life where (un)conscious bias is a contentious and troublesome issue is not news, even if that does not necessarily translate into corrective action. But the tendency in many organisations to base criteria on 'tried and tested' leadership attributes may also be a growing issue, especially in times of rapid change and rising turbulence.
Echoing the findings of the 2017 Edelman Trust Barometer (which we have previously commented on), the 2016 Ketchum Leadership Communication Monitor reports dismal levels of public support for the effectiveness of leaders. Unlike Edelman, it also explores the type of leadership that would be more appreciated – and finds that a higher percentage believe that leadership would be more effective coming from the company/organization overall and everyone within it than would place their faith in either the CEO or senior management.
Truth matters
I wrote recently on this blog about Radical Candor (sic). I'm still as English as I was when I wrote the original, where a degree of sarcasm may not have escaped your attention. But a lack of not just candour, but something closely related – honesty – is really not a laughing matter.
You may have noticed a strapline on this website. Truth matters. Without truth, there is no credibility, no trust, no faith. Lies are quick, cheap and easy, but the bill can be pretty big when it does arrive. And it will. Have a read of a recent article from the US press, and ponder for a few seconds the impact on the credibility of Kellyanne Conway. If you've not glazed over yet, bear in mind her job title. Counselor to President of The United States. Her job is to speak on his behalf. And if she's not credible…
We may live and work in an era when examples or allegations of 'fake news' and 'alternative facts' – a phrase that Ms Conway herself 'popularised' recently – seem to be everywhere, and where echo chambers digitally amplify them at the speed of whatever it is the Internet travels at. (The extent to which people may believe fictional news stories has led Facebook to introduce revised software in Germany ahead of this year's elections.) But we are also in the age of the camera-phone, the server log, the CCTV camera, key capture software and many other little technological wonders that track and monitor a remarkably percentage of everything we do. If it happened – or if it didn't happen (the size of President Trump's inauguration crowd, anyone?) – there's a very high chance the evidence exists to prove or disprove it.
Dishonesty has never been the best policy: in 2017, it's also very stupid. With such a high chance of evidence being available, there is only so far that truth can be stretched before it not only becomes dishonest but transparently so. Remember the Emperor's New Clothes? You might think you've got everything covered so to speak, but other people's view could be pretty off-putting.
The antidote to a toxic culture is better behaviour
They say culture eats strategy for breakfast, and they may have a point. But, like breakfast, culture has ingredients: the behaviours that create the atmosphere and patterns that everyone works within. Think for a moment about your morning muesli, and contemplate that old adage – "One bad apple…" It seems the staff at Business Grapevine might be thinking along similar lines, judging by their recent article, 5 warning signs of a TOXIC company culture.
For those that might be concerned, here's the summary checklist:
- A lack of employee motivation
- Inauthentic leadershipHigh turnover rates
- Absenteeism
- Lack of communication
While culture can – indeed, should – be managed, it's only reasonable to assume that the decision to create a culture with these characteristics is rarely that any intelligent organisation would take, but how many are mindful that these symptoms can arise surprisingly swiftly when behaviour goes either awry or unchecked?
No matter what our staff handbooks and codes of conduct might say, organisations are composed of people, and a degree of irrationality comes with the turf. But that does not mean all is lost. A recent Strategy & Business article profiling Maryam Kouchaki, an expert in the causes of unethical behavioural, included an important reminder:
[…] although we humans may be hardwired to react and behave in certain ways that may not always make us proud, we are by no means a lost cause.
This is just as well, given some of the findings of a recent McKinsey article, The hidden toll of workplace incivility, which charted some of the impact of toxic behaviours: […]

Birmingham blooms at RHS Chelsea Flower Show
BBC Midlands Today
Today I'm at RHS Chelsea Flower Show meeting some of the people who have put together some of the lovely blooms from the West Midlands.
What a stunning display here - this is this year's contribution from Birmingham City Council which has all been funded entirely through sponsorship
See more on BBC Midlands Today at 18:30 on BBC One.
Town halls buy back Right-to-Buy homes
BBC Local Live
Councils have spent millions buying back homes they sold at a discount under Right-to-Buy laws to meet housing shortages.
BBC News Online investigated local authority areas where waiting lists rose for four consecutive years since 2011 and made Freedom of Information (FOI) requests of 10 councils at random.
Islington spent £6.2m on 25 houses it once sold for less than £1.3m.
It comes after Birmingham, one of the biggest councils in Europe, agreed in its budget to buy back Right-to-Buy homes when they became available - up to 200 in total, although it has not re-purchased any yet, according to an FOI response.
The government has vowed to build more affordable houses and in February called the current market "broken".
Business, culture and sport leaders back Birmingham's 2022 Commonwealth Games bid
BBC Local Live
Leaders from the worlds of business, culture and sport in Birmingham have backed the city council's interest in bidding for the 2022 Commonwealth Games after Durban in South Africa was stripped of the opportunity.
Former Aston Villa chairman Steve Hollis, now in the same role at the Greater Birmingham and Solihull Local Enterprise Partnership, said: "Given our unrivalled transport links, accommodation and world-class venues, we're ideally placed to succeed."
Fiona Allan, chief executive of Birmingham Hippodrome, said: "It's our chance to demonstrate what an incredibly friendly and exciting city we have become, a confident city capable of hosting major international events, with plenty to occupy tourists during their stay."
Neil Snowball, chief executive of Warwickshire County Cricket Club, said: "In recent years, Birmingham has proved itself as one of the most experienced and best equipped cities when it comes to hosting global sporting events."
Birmingham interested in bidding for 2022 Commonwealth Games
Birmingham City Council has confirmed the city is interested in bidding to host the 2022 Commonwealth Games after Durban in South Africa was stripped of the privilege.
It comes after the UK government asked interested British cities to submit proposals for staging the event.
The council said today its proposal to bid had been backed in a feasbility study by consultants Origin.
The study will still need to be scrutinised by full council before elected members vote on the city's next steps.
It is understood the merits of formal proposals from across the UK will be considered before the selection of a candidate to compete against rival bids from other Commonwealth nations.
Birmingham 'obvious choice' for Channel 4 relocation
It was announced yesterday that Channel 4 could move out of London.
Culture Secretary Karen Bradley said the government wants "the benefits of this national asset to be spread far and wide, not just in London".
Birmingham City Council leader John Clancy said "Birmingham is the obvious location" for Channel 4 to relocate to.
Mr Clancy has extended an invitation to Culture Secretary Karen Bradley to visit Birmingham "to see for herself the rich pool of talent this city has to offer".
He added with Birmingham's culturally diverse population and with 108 different languages being spoken, it makes the city a "perfect spot for relocation".
Not only is this a phenomenally creative city, we are also a young city - Europe's youngest. We have more under 25s than any other UK core city, with a rich pool of talent available to meet the demands of training the next generation of media professionals
Schoolchildren to learn about seaside safety, after drownings
More than 100,000 schoolchildren in Birmingham are going to learn about staying safe at the seaside over the school holidays.
The lessons follow the drowning of two Birmingham teenagers off the coast of Barmouth in Gwynedd, Wales, last August.
Birmingham City Council has now formed a partnership with the RNLI to try to avoid a similar tragedy in the future.
Lifeboat crews will be visiting schools for special safety sessions.
Flags at half-mast in respect for Westminster attack victims
Journalist, BBC News Online
Birmingham City Council has made a public show of respect for those affected by the Westminster terror attack.
Changes rung at the top for Birmingham City Council
BBC Local Live
Changes are being rung at the top of Birmingham City Council.
Stella Manzie, a former chief executive of Coventry City Council and Barking and Dagenham Council, and who was until last year Commissioner Managing Director of Rotherham MBC, is due to be confirmed as Birmingham's interim chief executive at a full council meeting on 4 April.
It comes after former chief executive Mark Rogers left the £180,000-a-year post suddenly in February .
Camden Council's chief finance officer Mike O'Donnell will fill the same vacant role for three days a week in Birmingham on a secondment.
And Alan Gay, who has been part of an independent review team recommended by the government , and who is deputy chief executive and director of strategy and resources at Leeds City Council, is going to "provide support and strategic oversight in the short term" at Birmingham.
Park memorial for Tunisia attack victims
Rise in parking charges defended by council leader
The leader of Birmingham City Council has defended a proposed hike on Sunday parking charges.
On-street parking in the area near Colmore Row currently costs £2.50 for two hours on a Sunday, but from the start of April it is going up to £6.
Labour's John Clancy said he "regretfully" had to look at ways of "raising revenue in the city" after £600m of cuts in the past six years.

Doerr captures the sights and sounds of wartime and focuses, refreshingly, on the innate goodness of his major characters.
As a work of literature, it is incontrovertibly imperfect, with a lumpy, lurching narrative. But one can regard the novel as necessary emetic medicine for her vast reading public.
Ms. Hillenbrand is a muscular, dynamic storyteller. . .
Hopefully Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking and other books like it can provide a framework for each reader to reflect on this important topic and contribute to creating communities in which both extroverts, introverts, and everyone in between can contribute fully to their development.
Writing in plain, clear prose, Skloot avoids melodrama and makes no judgments.
Impressive world-building, breathtaking action and clear philosophical concerns make this volume, the beginning of a planned trilogy, as good as The Giver and more exciting.
Through Joe's narration, which is by turns raunchy and emotionally immediate, Erdrich perceptively chronicles the attack's disastrous effect on the family's domestic life, their community, and Joe's own premature introduction to a violent world.
The strength of The Book Thief is its wit and understated horror...It is an impressive book and I appreciate Mr. Zusak's ability, but a few lesser moments of the author trying to get the audience to tear up would have worked in its favor.
Ms. Stedman builds a solid case for all sides — or, at least, makes everyone's motives understandable.
...for every duff or unhinged sentence there is a moment or passage of human metaphysics beautifully distilled...
Gone Girl does an excellent job at having us scrutinize the gender roles in the modern family, picking apart the aspects that make our society progressive…or not so progressive. Flynn does an excellent job at getting us into the heads of the quintessential dysfunctional family...
Wrenching, as befits the grim subject matter, but also tender, touching and at times unexpectedly funny.
Mockingjay gives the real feel of life within a war, where nothing is the same and you're haunted by the memories of two Hunger Games...This is the book that I had to force myself to take breaks from as the intensity and story completely captured me and I found it near impossible to continue with the rest of my life.
Even with such varied exemplars, the skilled narrative remains accessible.
If you somehow haven't read To Kill a Mockingbird, go to the library...or bookstore immediately. If you haven't read To Kill a Mockingbird recently, it is worth reading the novel again.
One of Kingsolver's better efforts at preaching her politics and pulling heartstrings at the same time.
...I would recommend this book to readers because of its excitement, meaning and unpredictability.
Walls's journalistic bare-bones style makes for a chilling, wrenching, incredible testimony of childhood neglect. A pull-yourself-up-by-the-bootstraps, thoroughly American story
I find it a co-incidence that the lesson Malala found in the 'Wizard Of Oz' book is the lesson that I found in this book: if you really want to do something, you can – even with hurdles along your way.
...David Sedaris really is that good. And, based on this latest collection, he's getting only better.

Note by the Secretary-General
The Secretary-General has the honour to transmit to the General Assembly the report of the Director-General of the World Health Organization, submitted in accordance with General Assembly resolution 70/300.
Report of the Director-General of the World Health Organization on consolidating gains and accelerating efforts to control and eliminate malaria in developing countries, particularly in Africa, by 2030
Switzerland - IOM, the UN Migration Agency, reports that 54,715 migrants and refugees entered Europe by sea in 2017 through 17 May, with nearly 85 per cent arriving in Italy and the remainder divided between Greece, Cyprus and Spain. This compares with 189,950 arrivals across the region through 17 May 2016
IOM Rome reported that, through 17 May this year, 45,754 migrants or refugees have landed in Italy, and over 8,500 – or nearly one fifth of this year's total – have arrived over the past two weeks. (See chart below.)
There were more than 14 100 detections of illegal border crossings on the three main migratory routes into the EU in April, 2% higher than the number of detections from the previous month. The total number of detections in the first four months of 2017 fell 84% from the same period of last year to almost 47 000, even though Italy continued to see numbers higher than a year ago.
Central Mediterranean
Between 1 January and 30 April 2017, 37,235 persons arrived in Italy by sea. This is a 33% increase compared to sea arrivals in the same period last year (27,926). As in previous years, monthly arrivals were comparatively lower during the winter, due to less favourable weather and sea conditions. Monthly arrivals increased in the spring: in April 2017, 12,943 refugees and migrants reached Italian shores.
RABAT, 15 May 2017 – According to a recent UNICEF analysis covering 11 countries in the Middle East and North Africa [1], poverty continues to impact at least 29 million children – one in four children in the region. These children are deprived of the minimum requirements in two or more of the most basic life necessities including basic education, decent housing, nutritious food, quality health care, safe water, sanitation and access to information.
Trends and key figures
Switzerland - IOM, the UN Migration Agency reports that 53,386 migrants and refugees entered Europe by sea in 2017 through 10 May, with nearly 85 percent arriving in Italy and the remainder divided between Greece, Cyprus and Spain. This compares with last year's 187,970 arrivals across the region through 10 May 2016.
IOM Rome said, through 10 May, nearly 8,000 migrants or refugees have arrived in Italy, or nearly 1,000 men, women and children per day, a pace considerably ahead of both May 2015 and 2016. (See chart below).
IOM's overall vision is to enhance good governance of migration throughout the Middle East and North Africa region, ultimately aspiring towards migration and human mobility that is humane and orderly and that benefits migrants and societies.
IOM will do so by addressing the mobility dimensions of crises affecting the region and by contributing to structural transformations in the way in which migration is approached, addressed and discussed in the Middle East and North Africa.
Description: Ce rapport intervient dans le cadre de la mise en œuvre par l'Organisation internationale pour les migrations (OIM) de deux projets distincts mais complémentaires, financés par l'Union européenne, à savoir: le projet CARE (Approche Coordonnée pour la Réinsertion des victimes de la traite qui retournent volontairement dans un pays tiers) et le projet TACT (Action Transnationale – Retour et réinsertion sûrs et dignes des victimes de la traite qui rentrent volontairement dans trois pays prioritaires : Albanie, Maroc et Ukraine).
This report follows on from the implementation of two distinct but complementary projects implemented by IOM: Coordinated Approach for the REintegration of victims of trafficking returning voluntarily to any third country (CARE project) and Transnational ACtion – Safe and sustainable return and reintegration for victims of Trafficking returning voluntarily to priority countries: Albania, Morocco and Ukraine (TACT project).

30, 60, 90-Day Inpatient Vs. Outpatient Rehabilitation in Gifford, South Carolina
Becoming sober from Temesta, Biocodone, alcohol or other addictive substances you or your loved one is addicted to takes an specifically-tailored treatment strategy. Two options of addiction treatment programs in Gifford can help you succeed: either Inpatient or Out-patient Rehab.

Outpatient treatments may be convenient, but lack the stability and assests of 2 month programs to get into recovery.

Foxborough Regional Charter School located in Foxboro, MA is holding the first ever Northeast Regional Spanish Spelling Bee and inviting all schools in the Northeast to participate. This is a great opportunity for students to use the target language outside the classroom! The Bee will be held Saturday, April 11, 2015 at our school in Foxboro. We already have over 50 schools in New England, New York and New Jersey interested in participating. There would be no need for schools to provide bus transportation for students since students would be traveling with their families - overall no expense to the schools. We have secured a group rate at the Holiday Inn ($105/night) less than two miles down the road. The students would also have the opportunity to travel to NM for the National Spanish Spelling Bee next year in July!
