A DSLR is the perfect camera for any getaway
(Photo courtesy of Bromley Jones, IT Partner)
Off on a late summer holiday or early autumn break? Wherever you go, I would always recommend taking a great camera with you. You'll often pass somebody or something and think, "Wow, that would make a great picture!". The world is full of stunning, sweeping landscapes and charismatic portraits. But the question is, which camera to take? Something small, easy and practical, or something larger with more manual control? Well, how about a camera with all these qualities for your getaway?
A DSLR has the best of both worlds. At first glance they might seem a bit complicated and scary with all the additional buttons, wheels and functions, but I assure you that once you get the camera in your hands, you'll be shooting like the next David Bailey!
Manual control is something that can be taught by reading books or taking classes, but I would recommend playing with the functions that a DSLR offers and learning at your own pace. Don't forget that all DSLR cameras feature automatic setting modes to get you started. Cameras like the Olympus E-PL1 are designed with the beginner in mind, but certainly won't restrict your learning in the future. And of course, the beauty of digital photography means that if you're not happy with a picture you've taken, you can simply delete it from your memory card and take it again, with no development costs to worry about.
Although DSLRs are bigger then their compact counterparts, they are deceivingly light and very comfortable to hold - perfect for when you're sightseeing! A great example of this is the Panasonic G2 which is super-compact and light.
The primary benefits of a camera of this type become apparent when you print your first image. Firstly, the quality of the image sensor in a DSLR camera compared to a compact is much greater, which will result in much sharper images with deeper, richer colour.
Secondly, the response time of these cameras is almost instantaneous. On a compact camera there will always be a small delay between pressing the shutter button and taking the image, whereas on a DSLR the image is taken as soon as you touch the button. No more missed opportunities while you're enjoying your time away from it all.
Another benefit of a camera of this type is that most still have a viewfinder as well as a LCD screen. An LCD screen is great for reviewing the images you've taken on the fly and for controlling certain menu functions, and they're much higher quality than yesteryear, but it can be difficult to compose an image in certain light conditions, especially in the late summer sun.
A viewfinder eliminates this problem immediately by allowing you to look 'through the lens' - something compact digital cameras now lack. And many of the newer DSLR cameras, like the Canon EOS 550D, also record video in High Definition as well as take still images, so you can leave your camcorder at home and really travel light!
We carry a wide arange of DSLR cameras at John Lewis, so we're sure to have something for you, whether you're a keen amateur photographer or a seasoned enthusiast. And if you're on a budget there's still lots of options - Our DSLRs start from under £350, just like this great Nikon D3000.
As you become more confident about your photography skills and your camera, remember that we stock a large range of lenses and additional accessories which will allow you to truly master your new found art.
As well as purchasing an all-important memory card, it's also worth investing in a case to protect your new equipment, as well as keeping it dry - some cases, such as selected lines in our Lowepro range, are weather resistant.
Partners in our shops are not only fully trained on all the cameras we sell in-store and on john Lewis.com, but many of us are passionate about photography too so please don't hesitate to ask us how to get the very best from your new camera. And if you take something truly magical on one of our cameras, bring it in to show us... we'd love to see it!

ION Television has acquired series Rookie Blue from the Disney-ABC Television Group. The Canadian police drama has been airing in the U.S. on ABC where the most recent fourth season averaged 7.0 million total viewers, up 13% from season 3. Season 5 premieres on ABC in June. The series, about the personal and professional lives of five rookie cops, will make its debut on ION this fall. It will join two other Canadian drama procedurals that started their U.S. run on another broadcast network before becoming ION originals, Flashpoint and The Listener. Rookie Blue is a production of IFC Films and Entertainment One, who also distributes the series internationally.
ION Acquires Off-Network Rights To 'Rookie Blue'

Stupid question. Anyone know how ION bought it from Disney-ABC when ABC neither owns it not produces it?
It may be that Disney retained off-net U.S. distribution as part of the original license agreement. This would help hedge ABC's original risk as well as incentivize them to keep it on the air longer.
If I'm interpreting your question correctly, sounds like you're getting at how the 1st/2nd licensing cycle sales went down on a show that isn't owned by Disney/ABC, but merely licensed by them. So I'd say I'm also wondering with you in terms of how is this possible … it appears that since Disney/ABC is simply a licensee (and now ION is on a different cycle), my guess is that the opening sentence was just a minor fact that was accidentally misreported.
Just the reruns.
OH that coup my mom watch Rookie blue she love this

Wheelchairs on two wheels are becoming essential part of life for disabled persons. But designing control strategies for such wheelchairs is a challenging task due to the fact that they are highly nonlinear and unstable systems. The subtle design of the system mimics a double inverted pendulum with three actuators, one for each wheel, and one for chair position. The system starts to work with lifting the front wheels (casters) to the upright position and further with stabilizing in the upright position. The challenge resides in the design and implementation of suitable control strategies for the two-wheeled wheelchair so as to perform comparably similar to a normal four-wheeled wheelchair. A two-level modular fuzzy logic controller is proposed in this paper. A model of the standard wheelchair is also developed as a test and verification platform using Visual Nastran software integrated with Matlab.

One night last December, three houses disappeared into the sea off the Norfolk coast as a huge storm surge sucked away thousands of tonnes of rock and sand from beneath them. What happened at Hemsby, and also along the coast at Happisburgh, was extreme. But not unprecedented. "O Tide that waits for no man / Spare our coasts!" sing the Suffolk fishing villagers in Britten's 1945 opera Peter Grimes, and, over the next 50 years from now, hundreds more homes could be claimed by rising water, inland as well as coastal. The task of holding back the floods is overwhelming the capacity to do it. The question for government is how far and how fast it is going to retreat.
The floods on the Somerset Levels have already lasted a month, and are not over yet. They show just how tough addressing this issue will be. The Levels are a manmade environment that has been managed so ingeniously for 2,000 years that the area now supports towns, countless farms and villages, a motorway, railway lines and even a nuclear power station. Over the centuries, the sea has occasionally surged inland, but flooding from rivers has always been a regular winter event. What has changed is that local people feel that they have become collateral damage in a plan in which they have had no voice.
At the weekend, David Cameron told the local newspaper: "We will sort this out." It is a promise he is unlikely to be able to keep. Some things he can do: he can redress the deep cuts in funding of 2010 so that the Environment Agency can afford both to invest in new flood defences and, as importantly, maintain existing ones. Other things have already been done: the military and emergency services are offering the limited help they can while the rivers are too full to carry away the flood water. Local councils may get some extra help. But the weather and the tides are beyond political control. Progress, which for so long has been about dominating the forces of nature, is now going to involve some accommodation with it.
Climate scientists are in no doubt that this kind of flooding – and last month's coastal erosion – is only going to become more frequent. Coping with it will involve more and better defences. But it will also mean retreat. That will work best if it comes from bottom-up planning: the environment secretary, Owen Paterson, was right to challenge people on the Levels to come up with their own proposals to make their livelihoods sustainable. Some already have: but the Parrett catchment project, completed five years ago, now appears to exist only in academic studies. A plea to revive it after last year's flooding got no response.
At the end of last week, the Somerset Drainage Boards Consortium unveiled its proposals in response to the Paterson challenge. It recognises that there is no single solution and that keeping life on the Levels sustainable won't come cheap, even though the dredging that people have been demanding for years is only a part of an answer. The plan also involves investment on a sluice gate near the mouth of the Parrett to stop high tides flooding upstream, blocking the water coming down. There would have to be work on the uplands to slow the flow on to the Levels. Farmers need help to improve their flood resilience. But even with all of this, the plan bluntly says, it will not be possible to restore the status quo.
In the next few years, some of the most vulnerable homes, and some farmland, will have to be given up. That is a hard conclusion to draw and accept, and it's certainly not a decision to be taken under the duress of the kind of extreme weather the Levels have endured for weeks past. There has to be careful planning in which everyone feels they have had a fair hearing. Central government – and in particular the Environment Agency – needs to listen. Local government needs to engage, as it already is, facilitating land swaps, underwriting short-term mortgages, easing the passage to a more sustainable future. There is no simple answer, and there is certainly no magic formula. On Saturday, Mr Cameron implied that there was. That is exactly the wrong place to start.

Is this the start of a price war among Britain's fund management groups? JP Morgan this week slashed annual fund charges to just one-third of the industry average, ahead of a regulatory clampdown on commission and charges expected next year.
The firm is cutting the annual management fee that investors pay by three-quarters, from 1% to 0.25%, although only for one of its funds, not its entire range. The cut comes amid criticism that fund managers and bankers are creaming off as much as £3bn a year in excess charges and hidden levies, with the true cost of investing often much higher than the widely quoted annual fee.
David Norman, the former UK head of Credit Suisse Asset Management, in November launched TCF Investment (it stands for Treating Customers Fairly) which has capped maximum charges on its fund range at 0.8%. He says: "The fund management industry has forgotten whose money it is looking after. Charges have risen relentlessly over the decades when they should have been falling as funds grew in size. We estimate retail investors are paying at least £3bn a year more in annual fees than they should be: that's £12m every working day, and it shows no sign of slowing."
Many small investors may believe that the cost of a fund is restricted to an annual management charge (AMC), plus a possible initial charge. The AMCs are disclosed on fund factsheets and are typically 1.5%. But auditor fees and stamp duty takes the typical "total expense ratio" (TER) to 1.7%.
Other costs are hidden. The fund factsheets do not tell investors about trading costs – the actual buying and selling of shares within the fund – which can add another 1% a year. In effect, small investors are sometimes paying as much as 3% of their fund in charges every year, which explains why what they receive in their pocket is often so much less than the headline performance figures.
"The biggest drag on performance is trading costs. In some funds, where turnover of stocks can be very high, trading costs can be huge," says Norman. Layers and layers of highly paid City brokers take a cut; the fund manager typically walks off with 1%; the financial adviser who recommended the fund takes 0.5% every year; the fund "supermarket" or "platform" may charge 0.25%; while the investment bank that trades the underlying shares may snatch another 1% or so.
Norman also criticises British fund management groups for not reducing their charges as a fund grows in size. "TERs in Britain stay the same regardless of the size of the fund. In the US, Germany and France, the TER goes down as the fund gets bigger."
Clive Waller, of CWC Research, is another industry insider, a one-time head of sales at Zurich, who warns of excessive fees. "There is no connection between charges and performance, and it's virtually impossible for small investors to calculate exactly the performance drag from charges. Broadly speaking, you can roughly double the AMC. Charges are around 50% higher in the UK than in the US, and there are far too many funds. So it's a good thing that JP Morgan is focused on what's really going on."
Even small differences in the percentage charge can have a huge impact on longer-term returns. For example, if someone invested £100,000 for 25 years and the stockmarket rose by 7% a year, they would pick up £266,583 with charges at 3% a year. However, if charges are 1%, the same investor would receive £439,424.
Fundmanagers, whether "active" (taking decisions about which stocks to buy) or "passive" (simply trying to replicate an index) have failed to keep up with the FTSE indices, largely as a result of charges.
And buying a tracker fund isn't always the cheap option. Halifax's tracker fund has been particularly poor value for investors, failing to come close to matching the index it is designed to track. However, a new breed of tracker funds from Vanguard has recently come on to the market, charging just 0.15% a year.
At TCF, Norman welcomes JP Morgan's cut in charges, but asks: "Why are they doing it on only one fund, not all their money funds? My guess is that if they did so, it would crucify their existing business."
The JP Morgan Asset Management head of sales, Jasper Berens, says the company has cut the charges on its UK Active Index fund to give investors a cheap, actively managed alternative to index funds and exchange traded funds, and to prepare for the retail distribution review (RDR) that regulators are forcing upon the industry. Under the RDR, financial advisers who recommend unit trusts will not be able to take commission, but will instead have to make a separate charge to the investor for advice.
It's not clear yet which charging models will finally emerge, but experts suggest that under RDR, fund managers will reduce the AMC on their funds from 1.5% (as 0.5% is already given to advisers) to possibly between 0.5% and 1%, while the advice charge will be between 0.75% and 1%.
So investors who go through financial advisers will not save anything, and could even end up paying more. But savvy individuals who are happy to buy direct without advice may be able to make substantial savings.
Privately, some major financial advisers criticise regulators for having wasted a colossal amount of time and energy producing a new "transparent" charging structure that won't cut costs for customers. They also argue that too few individuals are currently saving, or receiving financial advice, and say focusing on the advice element of the charge may make matters worse.
Richard Saunders, the chief executive of the Investment Management Association, says: "Everyone is thinking about how they are going to respond to RDR, but quite what impact it will have is still not clear. It is certainly interesting that Vanguard has chosen to enter the UK market at this time. They made their name in the US by offering low-cost index funds and became the biggest in the market.
"Maybe it's no coincidence that they have launched in the UK with RDR in prospect. All competition has got to be a good thing, and it's in the long-term interests of consumers."
But at TCF, Norman takes a less emollient line. "It is time for a revolution that tips the balance back in favour of poor investors and away from greedy managers," he says.

This manifesto, based on the views of people who have experienced homelessness in England and those who support them, sets out priority actions the new government can take to make the greatest difference to homelessness.
Designed by experience - the new manifesto to end homelessness
Last summer, we asked people experiencing homelessness and the services that support them what the next government could do to end homelessness.
The result is Let's make the difference: a manifesto to end homelessness. Published today and presented at our House of Lords reception this afternoon, it sets out five priority actions that will make the biggest difference for many thousands of people who become homeless in England.
The new manifesto in brief
In the manifesto we call on the next government to take action on five key areas: rough sleeping, employment, housing, support for people with the most complex needs, and long-term strategy. We set out practical steps that will enable homelessness services to innovate and support people who become homeless to thrive.
Here is a top level overview of the message we're sending to politicians today. Click here to download the full manifesto (PDF).

The Hidden Truth To Be Found
Poem by: 5Forever23His10Fan
Status: Finished
Genre: Poetry
Life at times can be like getting hit by a car
It happened so fast that you don't know where you are
It's like it happened so fast and hit so hard
That you don't sit down to think about it until later in time
At first, it doesn't seem like much, but then you think and you find
You find that things have changed and what happened is not behind
There becomes that line, a line that makes all the differnce, that very thin line
That you see much has changed and it is time to sit and watch the passer-byes, pass by
You realize it is time for the change and you must go back steps until you can truly fly
To be where you want to be and to be truly happy with your life
All that is needed is to re-evaluate, see what needs to be done, and not let your down fall change your strife
And soon you will be where you want to be, with the life you know is meant to be complete
In time, the passer-bye begin to be as one with you
And the pain that was once so strong, is no longer true
The pain is found to be as necessary for the life that you know is due
And you know the life you have was really worth it because what makes you stronger are the little things you go through

Pro Auto-bridges 32-bit plugins in a 64-bit environment
When using a 64-bit installation of Reaper, all 32-bit plugins will still work alongside 64-bit plugins.
Pro Rarely crashes
Most DAWs have a tendency to crash constantly, reaper crashes very rarely.
Pro Portable
Reaper 4/5 is lightweight enough to be run off of a flash drive.
Pro Simplified workflow
In Reaper, a track is a track is a track. There is no distinction among MIDI, stereo, mono, surround or any other tracks, and that means it's possible to put clips of all kinds on the same track. This approach makes the Reaper DAW seem a lot more intuitive than other DAWs.
Pro Comes with ~300 free plugins
Pro Multi-level freezing
A freeze can be applied to a group, and then picked apart track by track.
Pro Free Reaplugs VST/VSTi bundle allows usage of the basic bundled like EQ's and comp plugins in any DAW
Pro Lua scripting can be done in the DAW with a built-in IDE
Pro Supports ReWire
Pro Runs well on Wine in Linux
Pro Notation editor added recently
Con No native groove quantize feature
Straight quantization is available, but the Reaper 4 DAW is still missing groove integration. This feature is available in the SWS extension.
Con Lacks VSTs
Doesn't come with a wealth of VSTs or VSTis. Plugins for things like piano, cello, guitar have to be found elsewhere. But is highly compatible with other providers of those products.
Con Menu drop downs can be a little long
Con No PFL metering
If you want to meter your input levels before your FX and volume fader, you'll need to insert a metering plugin as the first part of the chain, since there is no option for PFL metering.
Cubase has more features for creating and editing midi drum tracks.

Great little pizza place, had some very tasty thin crust pizzas with freshly made dough. Good cold beers and really friendly guy running the place!
Please, whatever you do, do not visit this place! Unless you have have a preference for pre teen service staff, who prefer chewing gum and facebook to serve you!!
And to mention the food and the ambiance, you got to laugh!! When we went in to this place, which by the way looks like a school cafeteria. love and behold...
My favorite raraka appetizer, It's freash potato pancakes with Crème Fresh and caviar on top. For lunch, ask for double portion :)

Hardware Reviews
Laptop bags need to provide shelter for your gadgets and still be comfortable for you to carry outdoors for traveling. Frabicon sent us their Xplorer Laptop bag to check out. Follow us today and see if the Frabicon Xplorer bag everything you need to be your next travel laptop bag.
Gigabyte has dropped quite a few breathe taking motherboards in the last couple of years. First the redesigned their Gaming line when Z170 was released. Then there were quite a few eye catching X99 designs. More recently they release their new Aorus line. Even after all of that, Gigabyte still had an even more unique design, the Designare series. The Designare series was first released on the X99 and Z170 motherboards. Both gathered much attention, especially the X99-Designare EX. Now comes their newest entry, the Z270X-Designare.
The GTX 1080 has proven to be quite popular ever since it was released just shy of a year ago. Although NVidia could be content with just happily selling GTX 1080s until the next generation of video card are released, they weren't. In fact, they gave the GTX 1080 a memory upgrade. NVidia bumped up the original GTX 1080s GDDR5X memory clock speed by 10% to 11Gbps. This is the same as the more expensive GTX 1080 Ti and increases the GTX 1080s memory bandwidth from 320 GB/s to 352 GB/s.
If you're looking for a quick answer to the main question on your mind right now, then the answer is yes. The Kingston SDCG 64GB MicroSDXC card will work fine in your high speed 4K video camera. Now, that said, if you want to learn a little bit more about this little Micro SD Card "that can", then read on.
Patriot has been in the memory business since 1985 & they are no stranger to producing memory cards for all types of devices. With their LX Series 256GB High Speed Micro SDXC Class 10 card they say you can have up to 90MB/s write speeds for use with 4K video recording. We at Proclockers received a Patriots LX Series 256GB High Speed Micro SDXC Class 10 UHS-3 card for review lets see what the results of testing out their card.
Now with AMDs first all new architecture since 2011, Asus has launched their flagship X370 motherboard, the Republic of Gamers Crosshair VI Hero. The ROG Crosshair VI Hero is loaded with the features one would expect from one of their flagship motherboards.

The Association of Solicitor Investment Managers (Asim) has set up a strategy committee to oversee a three-year business plan.
It is the first time that the group has put resources into developing such a plan.
The committee will consist of Asim chair Iain Nicholson of Iain Nicholson & Co, vice-chair John Morton of Brachers and treasurer Tim Thornton Jones of Lawrence Graham.
According to a spokesperson, the three will look "at areas of concern and will also look at how to expand in the Midlands and Wales".
Asim has also appointed Thornton Jones to look into Government plans to develop a individual savings account and to ensure that solicitor investment managers will be able to operate such accounts.
There are some fears that if a new Tessa-type scheme was introduced, only banks could operate these, pushing solicitors out of the picture.

What A Time To Be Alive debuts at #1
I had a feeling that 500K projection last week was a tad bit high. But still, the official numbers are in according to Nielsen Music and 375,000 copies is mad impressive in this climate of album sales (334K were pure album sales).
There was no threat on WATTBA landing at #1 in its debut week and it just keeps the successful year going for Drake & Future.
Revisiting my first impressions of WATTBA a week later… "Big Rings" has emerged as the 1 go-to track in my rotation from What A Time. I'm sure I'm not the only one who thought this, but it's also the perfect anthem to crossover to sports — specifically ring ceremony time for the Golden State Warriors 1 month from today. (If the Warriors game ops don't at least play the instrumental while Adam Silver awards Steph & Co. their rings, then he/she should be fired.) Or maybe our hometown Cubbies, Tommy La Stella or Dexter Fowler can play the hook for their walk-up music. The former plays "Back 2 Back" and Fowler plays all of Fetty Wap's singles so they seem like the best fits.
Alas, I digress… salutations, Drizzy & Future. You can now stream WATTBA on Spotify after Apple Music hoarded it with the one-week exclusive. Ha! Listen below:

GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Now that Jeff Saturday is a Green Bay Packer after a 13-year, five-Pro Bowl career with the Indianapolis Colts, his new offensive line teammates in Green Bay are having some fun with the veteran center's last name.During the final day of Packers minicamp on Thursday, left guard Evan Dietrich-Smith changed out the last name on his jersey to read "Friday," and right guard Josh Sitton swapped his out to read "Sunday."Standing next to one another on the sideline, the playful trio seemed more than ready for the weekend.Sitton, one of the most frequent practical jokers in Green Bay's locker room, came up with the idea. But with the regular starter at left guard, T.J. Lang, missing practice, there were some last-minute adjustments in order to include his replacement, Dietrich-Smith."I pretty much got the news about 5 minutes before we went to practice that that was going down," Dietrich-Smith said. "It worked out good. I thought it was pretty funny."Dietrich-Smith and Sitton removed their regular jerseys for the altered "Friday" and "Sunday" versions just as the team was getting ready for 11-on-11 drills in practice. "Jeff didn't even notice it until three-quarters of practice was done," Dietrich-Smith said.With the Packers now getting six weeks off until the start of training camp, Sitton should have plenty of time to come up with new ways of initiating Saturday to the team.Follow Paul Imig on Twitter

|Reviews for The Smell of Rain
| merlinfrostG chapter 1 . 2/14/2015
Love this, there are so few stories out there with Lestrade and Sherlock like this. Great story and keep up the amazing work
| Guest chapter 1 . 11/1/2014
That... was quite possibly the best Sherlock fic I have ever read. I just... Wow. ;-;
| Puggle chapter 1 . 6/15/2014
Thank you for sharing

Well done. One of the joys of fanfiction is that we can explore all the possibilities.

| calliopechild chapter 1 . 7/10/2013
Oh, this was lovely. As mean as it would be to John and Sherlock, I've always hoped the bomb would have ended up going off; the way that episode actually ended seemed horribly anticlimactic to me. So your version is pretty much exactly how I would have liked to see the episode go. Your shattered!Sherlock and protective!Lestrade were both fantastic, and I loved this to bits. The only way it could have been better would be if it was followed by some Sherlock-feels as he visits John and makes an utter nuisance of himself by refusing to leave.
Again, wonderful job on this, and thanks for a great read.
| xheartkreuzx chapter 1 . 11/28/2012
this was fantastic! thank you for writing it!

Loved this to bits. Very very well done :)

An SQP (suitably qualified person) working in Dorset has been found to be in "breach of professional standards" over a brochure on treating parasites in sheep and cattle.
SQPs – who are entitled to prescribe and/or supply POM-VPS, NFA-VPS and AVM-GSL medicines – are regulated by the Animal Medicines Training Regulatory Authority (AMTRA).
According to AMTRA, Peter Barker of Barkers Animal Health in Wimborne was found to be in breach after "serious concerns" were raised about a brochure he produced for customers.
AMTRA secretary general Stephen Dawson said: "In their work helping farmers with the health of their livestock, SQPs have to follow a strict code of practice.
"Following the complaint about Mr Barker, AMTRA's professional standards committee concluded his brochure on treatment of parasites in sheep and cattle fell short of what would be expected from a responsible SQP."
Overuse risk
According to Mr Dawson, the committee found "several instances" in the brochure that could result in overuse of medicines. There was also no mention of:
- the importance of consideration of the individual circumstances of the farm or animals
- the potential resistance status of the parasites in question
- the principles of responsible use of medicines
Mr Dawson said: "We were particularly concerned the brochure appeared to encourage use of products beyond what is permitted by the approved product label. This is not only contrary to regulations on veterinary medicines, but misuse or overuse of medicines could harm the health of the animals in our care.
"The medicine's authorisation and associated product label are based on research and product knowledge and are there for a reason. Off-label prescription of animal medicines can only be done by a veterinary surgeon in limited circumstances and not by an SQP."
No appeal
Mr Barker was sent a letter of warning by the authority, the highest sanction available short of removal from the SQP register. Under AMTRA procedures, Mr Barker had the right of written or verbal appeal following the letter, but no appeal was received. The case has, therefore, been closed.
"Such complaints against SQPs are rare," said Mr Dawson. "In fact, AMTRA has only considered four complaints in the last four years.
"However, the professional status of SQPs is founded on principles of responsible use of animal medicines."

Hong Kong compliance
The types of companies that may be formed and regulated under the new Companies Ordinance in Hong Kong are public and private companies limited by shares; companies limited by guarantee without a share capital and public and private unlimited companies with a share capital.
Any of the different types of companies as listed above, according to the Ordinance states that they must keep accounting records which must show and explain the company's transactions and disclose their financial position and performance. Accounting records must contain daily entries of all sums of money received and expended by the company, and the matters of which the receipt and expenditure takes place, as well as an accurate record of the company's assets and liabilities.
Commencing dormant status
The Ordinance states that a company is dormant if it said to have had no relevant accounting transactions during any given financial year. Accounting transaction can be defined as a transaction that is required to be entered in the company's accounting records.
This means that a company must pass a special resolution, authorising its directors to make a statutory declaration that the company will become dormant, and deliver a copy of the declaration to the registrar. Special resolution is when the members of the company pass a resolution that is by a majority of at least 75%.
The company shall be deemed a dormant company effective as of the date of delivery. If the declaration specifies a later date for the company to become dormant, it shall be deemed dormant from the date specified.
Financial statements
Every company must appoint an auditor who must be a member of the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants and hold a practicing certificate. The annual financial statements for a financial year must give a true and fair view of the financial position of the company as well as an accurate view of the performance of the company for the financial year.
The process of rendering a company as dormant effectively allows an inactive company to be retained at a minimum maintenance cost as a dormant company is exempt from the preparation of audited financial statements and appointments, as well as the removal of Auditors.
Annual general meeting
A company must hold a general meeting as its annual general meeting at the end of each financial year. In the case of a private company or a company limited by guarantee, 9 months after the end of its accounting reference period by reference to which the financial year is to be determined.
The Ordinance also holds that this does not apply to a dormant company, effectively rendering it is exempt from holding general annual meetings, unless the company enters into a financial transaction, it will stop having an effect on and after the date of the accounting transaction.
Annual return
A private limited company incorporated in Hong Kong under the Ordinance is required to file an Annual Return signed by a Director, Company Secretary, Manager or Authorised Representative with the Companies Registry within 42 days after the company's return date (excluding the year of incorporation.) This is relevant even if the information contained in the last return remains unchanged, it is still necessary to file an annual return certifying that there has been no change since the date of the last return.
The requirement to deliver an annual return for registration does not apply to a company who currently holds dormant status, however, it is still compulsory for a private company to deliver an annual return for the year in which it declares itself to be dormant if the effective date on which the company becomes dormant falls after the 42nd day of the anniversary of its date of incorporation.
Ending dormant status
A company that holds existing dormant status ceases to a dormant company by definition, if the company passes a special resolution declaring that the company intends to enter into an accounting transaction, and the resolution is delivered to the Registrar for registration; or there is an accounting transaction in relation to the company. The company will no longer be deemed dormant upon the date of said delivery or from the date of the declaration of the first accounting transaction.
Key amendments to the Singapore Companies Act
Significant changes to the commercial and company law in Singapore have come into effect. The changes to the Singapore Companies Act will hopefully make business entities more transparent as well as mitigating the risks of money laundering and terrorist financing.
Panama Law 52: Updated legislation for all legal entities
Last month the Government in Panama officially approved Law Number 52; legislation which creates the regulatory framework for the implementation regarding automatically exchanging tax information, in a further attempt to comply with global regulations for tax transparency, and to be fully in line with all supervisory and compliance matters.
Important 2016 reporting deadlines for BVI Financial Institutions
Officials from the British Virgin Islands have come together to clarify various filing deadlines as per the automatic exchange of information systems in a press release.

How to register a branch in Cyprus
Overseas companies may register a branch in Cyprus, according to the Companies Law, Chapter 113, regulated by section 347. A branch will not essentially consider as being a new legal entity in Cyprus.
To Brexit or not to Brexit?
To Brexit or not to Brexit - this has been the question of the year for Britain and with the referendum taking place imminently, just two options remain: leave the EU or stay in. Why has this been such a difficult decision to decide upon?
Selecting a Management Information System
A management information system or MIS is used to assist in the analyses and formulation of business strategy, as well as facilitating operational objectives. Selection of an MIS can help increase understanding and control in an organisation and can be scaled to suit the complexity of most modern businesses. If the right MIS is selected and it is implemented correctly it can provide a competitive advantage for the organisations utilising it.

Any work of art involves quite deliberate acts of deception.
When I first saw a painting by Belfast-born Gemma Gallagher at Camberwell College of Art's degree show in the summer of 2009, I thought that I was in the presence of a fairly benign seascape of some kind. I could see long, dark objects receding away from me, as if afloat on water. When I drew a little closer, I discovered, with a slight sense of wonder and fascination mixed with revulsion, that these were guns. Black and long, they looked like a strange flotilla of sea craft from the Second World War.
Gemma Gallagher was born in north Belfast in 1987, and her paintings conjure up a world – now, happily, receding from view - forever likely to be undermined by acts of violence. Being just twenty-two years of age, it is not a violence that she has known personally, but it is a violence known from stories, poems, newsreels, neighbourly tittle-tattle and song, and all these elements get woven into her paintings, which are both visually ravishing and deeply troubling. The painting which I have described is called 'A Terrible Beauty is Born', and that is a line from a great poem by W.B. Yeats called 'Easter 1916', which commemorates the heroes of the Rising. But were they really nothing but heroes? There is moral ambiguity in Yeats' words. What cannot be denied is that the names of those who are associated with that event resonate down the years. And so it is with Gemma Gallagher's paintings.
Last year she staged an exhibition in Belfast's notorious Crumlin Road Gaol – now closed – in order, in part, all the better to confront the history that surrounds her. Her paintings manage to combine a fanciful lightness with a brooding acknowledgement of the inescapably brutal past of her native city.

Obama's Sixty Second Week in Office
"The List" for 4/1/2010
Gary Locke, Secr. of Commerce: Obamacare good for business
Recently some prominent advocates of Obamacare have spoken more frankly than ever before about why they supported a national health care makeover. It wasn't just about making insurance more affordable. It wasn't just about bending the cost curve. It wasn't just about cutting the federal deficit. It was about redistributing wealth
More than 40 local and national medical societies representing over half a million doctors came out against the health reform legislation.

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton goes to Canada and pushes abortion in Canada's G8 Maternal Health Plan
The Obama administration has issued tough gas milage standards for new cars and trucks hitting dealerships in the future. The Transportation Dept. and the EPA say the final rules will require 2016 model-year vehicles to meet fuel efficiency targets of 34.1 miles per gallon combined for cars and trucks, or the equivalent of 35.5 mpg with credits for reducing greenhouse gas emissions. That's an increase of nearly 10 mpg over current standards.
Obamacare- states that in order for any individual to be eligible for a health insurance plan and health claim status transactions, they will be issued a national health identification card.
HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius announced $27 million worth of grants from the 2009 economic stimulus package that will go to state programs aiming to reduce chronic diseases and improve physical fitness among U.S. residents, HealthLeaders Media reports
Obama has refused every Military request from Israel since taking office

Obama's lawyer hustle: record of fraudulent legal record examined with documentary evidence. Charged with being incompetent, lazy, not a professor of constitutional law, the only unpublished editor in the history of the Harvard Law Review.
President Obama's nominee for U.S. Army general counsel, who pledges to investigate anyone leaking military secrets to the media, will receive at least $1 million in deferred compensation from the New York Times Co. even as he works for the government, records show.
Obama's new offshore drilling plan opens up some new areas for oil and gas exploration but also cancels some Alaska lease sales planned for the next two years, putting billions of barrels of oil out of reach
Obama stepped carefully when talking for the first time about the conservative tea party movement, acknowledging it has legitimate concerns about federal reach and spending, but he contended the core of the loose anti-government network is "on the fringe."

Obamas Student Loan Takeover Adds $52 Billion to Deficit According to 'Fair Value' Accounting, Says CBO

Sebelius to Insurers: Cover Children's Pre-Existing Conditions
2008 VIDEO: Obama states he is against offshore drilling

Obama wants Israel to freeze construction in East Jerusalem for four months in exchange for an attempt to renew stalled Israeli peace talks with Palestinians, an Israeli newspaper said on Wednesday.

Obamacare favors Americans without employer coverage- Employers with over 50 employees who don't offer coverage will have to pay a fee of $2,000 per full-time worker.

"The Candidate"
Frasier agrees to make a television commercial for his candidate of choice in a local election, only to learn some very distressing information moments before they film.

"You Scratch My Book..."

"The Show Where Sam Shows Up"
"The Show Where Sam Shows Up" is the 16th episode of the second season of the American sitcom Frasier. This episode originally aired on Tuesday, February 21, 1995, on NBC, intended as part of a February ratings sweep by the network. It features a central guest appearance of Ted Danson as Sam Malone, a recovering sex addict, bartender and ex-baseball player. In this episode Sam arrives to Seattle to see his old friend Frasier, and then is introduced to Frasier's family at a dinner in Frasier's home. During the visit, it's discovered that Sam was to get married to a woman named Sheila, who previously had a one-night-stand with Frasier. Then Sam finds out about Sheila's dalliance with other men rather than with Frasier, much to Frasier's relief, which ends Sam's relationship with her. Danson's appearance in this episode has received mixed reviews, and the positive highlight about it is his interaction with the cast of Frasier.

"The Innkeepers"
Frasier and Niles open their own restaurant, "Les Frères Heureux" (The Happy Brothers). When Opening Night arrives, everything that can go wrong does.
"Dark Victory"
Martin's birthday finds everyone in a bad mood. Daphne and Martin are arguing, Niles loses a patient because of Frasier, etc. A citywide power outage does nothing to soothe jangled nerves. Frasier uses his professional training to help bring everyone together.

The midfielder is reported to have been the subject of several offers from Championship rivals Nottingham Forest. Boro have fended off that interest and Mowbray is adamant that the 27-year-old is happy at the Riverside Stadium. He said in the Middlesbrough Gazette: "The positive for me on Grant is that he's said to me many times he enjoys being at Middlesbrough FC.

Born Ruffians / Moon King
Tuesday, April 23, 2013 at 8:00 PM (EDT)
Event Details
Born Ruffians from Toronto, Canada here. We're writing to tell you we've just finished our third album - Birthmarks. When we wrote our first album, Red, Yellow & Blue, we all lived in a house in downtown Toronto. We jammed in the basement, which meant whenever we had an idea we could work it out right there that moment. Our second album, Say It, was different. We'd moved out of the house to separate apartments and wrote the record in a rehearsal space over a 6 month period.
This time, we had no interest in going back to the rehearsal space. Instead we went back to the roots of our debut and lived together again. The three of us plus Andy, our fourth member now with us to fill out our live show, spent a spring and a fall isolated at a haunted farmhouse in rural Ontario.
Living together and not relying on a shitty rehearsal space was important to us. We wanted to be able to write when the idea was fresh, stop when we got stuck, and pick everything back up whenever we wanted. Being on a farm where we were isolated and could turn up as loud as we could was important.
These songs - Birthmarks - came out of a dusty living room in an old house, in between chopping wood and building bonfires, playing crokinole at the kitchen table, cooking family dinners and shooting beer cans with a bow and arrow. We'd wake up, head downstairs from our rooms, and write.
While some of Birthmarks was born on the farm, many of the songs were conceived long before. Luke would write and demo constantly on his laptop, at home, on tour, in Toronto, Montreal, Midland, Australia, France, Germany, everywhere. Several songs were realized during the recording process in the studio.
After we felt we had a strong group of songs we booked ourselves into Boombox Sound and spent most of 2012 moving in, out and around there with producer Roger Leavens and engineer Marcel Ramagnano tracking some 15 songs and figuring out the sound of the album. Luke had just finished doing an album of his own at Boombox so the environment was warmed up and ready for the band to come in. Luke worked closely with Roger on the production of the record, bringing sounds and parts of demos in from his laptop and dropping them into the studio, often building from there. The sound of the record was largely shaped by freedom of time and the new ability to manipulate a song over the course of several days or weeks until it was ready.
We don't want to tell you about what we think we sound like. We can tell you that this record will sound different. These songs lived with us, toured with us, got drunk with us and made our ears ring. Now, we get to hit the road and start making your ears ring. It took us almost three years writing all over the world, several months of farm life in the country, and a calendar year at Boombox Sound to finally finish Birthmarks. We think it's time to show you what Born Ruffians birthed.
