Little Switzerland (landscape)
A little Switzerland or Schweiz is a landscape, often of wooded hills. This Romantic aesthetic term is not a geographic category, but was widely used in the 19th century to connote dramatic natural scenic features that would be of interest to tourists. Since it was ambiguous from the very beginning, it was flexibly used in travel writing to imply that a landscape had some features, though on a much smaller scale, that might remind a visitor of Switzerland.
Rock outcrops[edit]
The original generic term was applied to dozens of locations in Europe, the bulk of them German-speaking, as well as to other parts of the world, to direct attention to rock outcrops that stand out, usually amid steep forest. The original, 18th-century comparison was usually with the fissured crags of the Jura Mountains on the Franco-Swiss border which hardly rise higher than 1700 metres.
Histories of Saxon Switzerland (Sächsische Schweiz) in Saxony, Germany, assert that the landscape description schweiz arose there at the end of the 18th century. Schweiz is the German-language name of Switzerland. The term was used both alone and with the prefix "little", for example in the title of an 1820 German book-length poem, Die kleine Schweiz by Jakob Reiselsberger,[1] which praised the rocky scenery of a part of Franconia in Germany known thereafter as the Franconian Switzerland (Fränkische Schweiz).
The term was already colloquial by this time in English: in 1823 a correspondent asserted in The Gentleman's Magazine that a steep area by the road outside Petersfield in southern England was a little Switzerland.[2] The aesthetic term, to describe picturesque exposed rock and steepness rather than altitude, was also in common use in other European languages, including the French term Suisse. Rocks and wild landscapes were a favoured theme in Romantic painting.
The many English places praised in 19th-century promotional literature as "little Switzerland" include Church Stretton, Whitfield and the coastal area around the North Devon twin towns of Lynton and Lynmouth. Chalet-style buildings were sometimes erected to emphasize little Switzerland pretensions, for example at Matlock Bath, which (unusually for England) also features a cable car.
From the beginning, the term was often understood as a comparison to the snow-capped Alps rather than to the Jura. The following passage, describing Wales, appears in an 1831 English-language edition of Malte-Brun's Universal Geography, which had originally been written in French in 1803–07:
|The great number of mountains which diversify its surface have gained it the name of Little Switzerland. It will be readily understood that it is not in the loftiness of their summits this resemblance can be traced with the country of the Alps, but in their steep, rough and perpendicular sides, the depth of their narrow valleys, the small but limpid lakes which occur at every step, the great number of rivers and streams which are now precipitated in cascades, and now roll their waters slowly through the meadows, the damp fogs which rise from the surface of these waters and often hang about the summits of the highest mountains, and the snow which frequently continues upon the heights till the end of spring: all of which give to these mountains, notwithstanding their inconsiderable height ... an appearance resembling those lordly eminences mounting up to the clouds and bearing on their heads eternal snows.[3]
Describing the Atlantic island of St Helena in A New Voyage Round the World (1823–26), Otto von Kotzebue and Johann Friedrich Eschscholtz were translated into English as writing:
|The environs of Sandy Bay would be a perfect little Switzerland, but that the glaciers are wanting to complete the resemblance. Scattered among the enormous masses of rock which lie confusedly heaped upon each other a frightful wilderness and most smilingly picturesque landscape alternately present their contrasted images.[4]
In the United States, the raw White Mountains of New Hampshire, which were soon to be one of the definitive subjects of American Romantic painting, were termed a little Switzerland by travel writer Henry Tudor as early as 1832.[5]
In the later 19th century, authors and tourism promoters would praise picture-postcard summer scenery of woods and low hills reflected in blue lakes as a little Switzerland or schweiz. Whereas the earlier use had implied a landscape of dangers, this was a term for beauty.
This usage, reflected today in the official geographical terms for the Holstein Switzerland (Holsteinische Schweiz) and Mecklenburg Switzerland (Mecklenburgische Schweiz) in Germany, where there are neither mountains nor outcrops, is difficult to account for, but may refer to prestigious Swiss lakeside tourist destinations such as Zurich, Lucerne or Interlaken or to Lakes Geneva and Constance.
Official names[edit]
The term has often appeared anachronistic since travel to Switzerland became affordable. By the 21st century, it was common for observers to express puzzlement that the "little Switzerland" label applied at all to regions such as the Suisse Normande, or to the Holstein Switzerland where the flat hilltops are no more than 150 metres above the lake surfaces.
In 1992, the Swiss Tourism Federation counted[6] more than 190 places round the world that had at least for some period been named after Switzerland, either because of a fancied scenic resemblance, in jest or referring to a banking haven, political neutrality or habitation by Swiss emigrants. No fewer than 67 places in neighbouring Germany were said by the Federation to have adopted little Switzerland names.
While the byname has fallen out of fashion in some places, it persists as the official geographical name for several administrative regions and national parks including (with dates of legal designation):
- Bohemian Switzerland (České Švýcarsko, nature park, Czech Republic, legislation with effect 2000)[7]
- Bremen Switzerland (undulating geest north of Bremen, that reaches 30 m; c.f. the flat land on which Bremen is built.)
- Franconian Switzerland (tourism region, Germany, designated 1968)[8]
- Hohburg Switzerland (Hohburger Schweiz), alternative name for the Hohburg Hills near Leipzig
- Holstein Switzerland (nature park, Germany, formed by association 1986)
- Kashubian Switzerland (Szwajcaria Kaszubska, Poland)
- Marcher Switzerland (Märkische Schweiz, nature park, Germany, by decree 1990)[9]
- Mecklenburg Switzerland (nature park, Germany, designated 1997)[10]
- Rhenish-Hessian Switzerland (protected landscape and recreation area in Rhineland-Palatinate).
- Rostock Switzerland (rugged terminal moraine landscape near the Baltic coast in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern).
- Rüdigsdorf Switzerland (hill range and karst landscape in the southern Harz, most of which is a nature reserve)
- Ruppin Switzerland (a forested lakeland in Brandenburg)
- Saxon Switzerland (nature park, Germany, designated 1990;[11] local government area, now in Saxon Switzerland-East Ore Mountains district)
Business promotion regions using the name without legally defined boundaries include:
- Suisse Normande (upland region of Calvados, France)
- Little Switzerland (Luxembourg) (dolomite formations near Echternach, Luxembourg)[12]
Notable privately developed properties known by the name include:
- Little Switzerland, North Carolina (resort development on hilltop in North Carolina, USA, from 1909)[13]
- Little Switzerland (Wisconsin) (a ski resort from 1941 onwards)
In English, "Little Switzerland" is usually said without any definite article or additional adjective, but often with a genitive modifier if there are several little Switzerlands within one nation, e.g. North Carolina's Little Switzerland. In European languages where Switzerland proper takes a definite article, little Switzerlands do likewise. Their English names may echo the vernacular, being capitalized and modified to the English alphabet, sometimes taking an English definite article, e.g. the Saechsische Schweiz (die Sächsische Schweiz) and the Suisse Normande (la Suisse normande). English forms are also widespread, e.g. Holstein Switzerland (Dickinson, 1964),[14] Swiss Franconia (Michelin, 1993),[15] Franconian Switzerland (Fodor, 1962,[16] and Bolt, 2005.[17])

It may have come in a losing effort, but Geoff Cameron has his first goal in the Premiership.
Cameron opened his scoring account for Stoke City on Sunday, burying an equalizer for the Potters in what was an eventual 3-1 loss to Arsenal. Cameron did well to knock the ball home in a match he played well in, as he placed his rebounded shot away from Arsenal goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny by impressively one-timing the ball to the far post with his left foot from 18 yards out.
The other American playing abroad to find the back of the net was one who is enjoying a fine start to his season. Terrence Boyd once again scored for Rapid Vienna on Sunday, netting the insurance goal in the club's 2-0 victory over SV Josko Ried. Boyd now has five goals in league play and six across all competitions.
Brad Guzan also had himself quite the outing, delivering a strong performance in goal for Aston Villa on Saturday. Guzan was key in the Villans recording a 1-0 win against Norwich City, making two fine saves (one on a penalty kick) and several other divine interventions in an impressive showing that saw the veteran goalkeeper pick up his first cleansheet of the season.
For Jozy Altidore and Jermaine Jones, the weekend was far from memorable. Altidore did not start and was forced to come off the bench in Sunderland's 3-0 defeat to West Bromwich Albion, a Saturday loss that left the winless Black Cats in last place of the Premiership. Jones and Schalke also endured a rough day at the office, suffering a 4-0 Saturday drubbing at the hands of Bayern Munich.

What do you think of these performances? Impressed with Cameron's goal/performance vs. Arsenal? What did you take away from Guzan's outing vs. Norwich City? Worried for Altidore given Sunderland's poor start to the Premiership season?
Share your thoughts below.
Why did Brooks only play 20 minutes?
Why did John Anthony Brooks leave after 20 minutes? Also, it seems like Chandler is playing consistently now, it will be interesting to see if that overrides his apparent lack of commitment and garners him a call-up.
Reports said Brooks left the match with an elbow injury.
Just saying
Can we just put it to rest and admit that is Guzans time. Tim Howard has been slacking a lot he shows up after he has terrible games.
How? Howard had a good game, there was nothing he could about one goal, and the other was a PK, perfectly taken. If Howard didn't make a couple of saves, it would've been worse. Right now I say they're equal, but Howard's leadership is vital with a young back 4.
It's a lot easier to make big saves when you're team is possibly going to get relegated than when you're on the last unbeaten team in the league (though I do agree the margins are minuscule between the two).
People also have a really, really short memory-against non-CONCACAF minnows, Timmy's been our best player during JK's time-Russia, Mexico August 2012, Italy, Mexico 2013, France, etc. Don't get me wrong, obviously some of those games were a decent while back, but people drastically, drastically overstate his perceived decline with both Everton and the US-right now, I'd say Timmy's our 4th best player and Brad's our 5th, shame they both can't play.
Timmy's biggest flaw as a keeper is that he ocasionally loses concentration and commits serious blunders.
In the 2010 World Cup he was the unquestionably automatic first choice and that seemed to inform his complacent , inconsistent performance.
Guzan is now a serious alternative and that coincides with Moyes leaving Everton which means Timmy is now fighting for his job at both Everton and the US. Brad is a better keeper and is playing better for his club.
However, Timmy has taken note of the challenge and is focusing much better for the US and is playing well.
Howard does have much more international experience and appears to be an important team leader. My guess as to why JK named him #1 and keeps him as #1 is that it is unclear Brad could have done much better and Timmy would not react well to being benched while Brad is used to being a back up.
Really what is wrong with giving Guzan a start once in a while.
Earlier it would have been a terrible idea to bench Howard for Guzan; glad they didnt. They are both incredible keepers and Guzan might be in freekish good form (while Howard is in good-average form)but changing keeper during the heat of important games would have been a mistake. Now that we are qualified i wouldnt mind seeing Guzan start a couple games.
seriously can't stand these comments.
you're joking right? Please explain to me how Howard has been "slacking". This year he's shut out Chelsea,, has a .75 goal against through the first 6 games, with 3 shutouts.
Oh, and add to that a shutout against Mexico. Yeah, He's really slacking. It's great that Guzan is starting to shine, and it's reassuring as an American, but to suggest that Guzan has done more than Howard, and deserves to be the #1 starter is just silly.
Roman Lewandowski
Wojtek uses his full name now? Interesting.
Don Pelayo
Although it came in a losing effort, that was a superb game by Cameron. He was a constant threat going forward and one of the best defensive players in the game.
No. No. No. That can't be, according to the right back experts who post on SBI. They, and I guess Jurgen also, insist that Cameron, although he has been playing right back for the past year in the Premier League under two coaches, is not good enough to play RB for the USMNT. A lot of these genius experts do not even think he should even be involved in the RB discussion. They insist that MLS d-mid Brad Evans and Michael Parkhurst who has played two games for his club since February should be the top guys for the USMNT RB spot. Cameron's just utility guy who can warm the USMNT bench who can be played out of position as a d-mid now and then, or maybe center back.
Gimme a frickin' break. Cameron was awesome today for Stoke against Arsenal, the kind of attacking and one-touch-quick-pass and gritty defensive performance that Evans and Parkhust and Timothy what's-his-name can only dream about.
Stop. Just stop. Logic is not welcome here. Obviously, there is no place on our team for a starting Premier League RB.
The last time I checked Stoke and the USMNT have very different playing styles,
The US for example does not permanently deploy two homicidal thugs as center halves. And accuse me all you want of being a homer but, in offensive terms, the USMNT is quite a bit more ambitious and creative than Stoke.
This is Cameron's second year at right back. If JK thought he was suitable for the US RB spot , you never would have seen Evans or Parkhurst at right back.
I prefer to let JK make the USMNT lineup decisions not Mark Hughes.
He has only been playing RB for two of the US qualifiers… if he doesn't play there in the future then you can type things like this.
Cut it with the hyperbole, It's an effective writing tool but it doesn't really fit when its only been 2 games. But i do agree with you that he should play there in the future if he stays there for Stoke.
Nate Dollars
thought he was playing right back last season as well, maybe i'm not remembering right.
20 goals for Boyd. Cameron was cool on that rebound. It be better if more people were playing. 47 players, 24 not playing, and 7 injured. Just not good.
Brian S.
Just confirmed that PDC is out as Sunderland coach. Could be good or bad for Jozy. We'll have to wait and see.
Don't see how it could be bad. The midfield is awful. And even in their last match, they looked better going forward after he came on the pitch. He really should've had an assist.
@SAFCofficial 14m
Sunderland AFC confirms that it has parted company with Head Coach Paolo Di Canio this evening.
Some rumors seem to be starting to surround Boyd. West Ham appear to have some interest as well as a couple Italian clubs. So we very well could see a move to a top four league in the next window, if he keeps up this form.
Beasley didn't even dress? interesting. i was at the Padres/Dodgers game and Xolos were there, including Gomez. i wonder if Arriola was too.
Lichaj starting consistently. And where is Lletget? I know he's injured, but there are plenty of other injured Americans here, but he's missing.
Scott e Dio93
Altidore gigantic mistake going to Sunderland, I knew it wouldn't work, hopefully, his poor club form won't be reflected on USNT. Time to start Boyd and Kevin Bacon some games,
Altidore already proved himself at the level that Boyd and Johannsson are currently at and while we often forget it. He is only a year older then both. If you want to be considered a top striker you have to take some risk to move your way up. The season is very young and generally Altidore has looked good in most his starts. Even if the team is relegated, having Jozy know and understand the level he'll be seeing next summer can only help.
Scott e Dio93
Mental baggage from Sunderland could rub to USNT, that's my main worry. I know EPL clubs are richest clubs, but some EPL clubs aren't career wise or drive down your momentum. EPL is best league, just the richest.
Ted in MN
Let's see where he ends up with a manager who isn't a complete twit.
poor club form?
It's been a month. People need to relax.
I'm wondering if Edu's hernia was more complicated than the average hernia. I myself have had the surgery (along with others I know), which is routine and recovery is fairly quick – back to most physical activities within a few weeks. I hope he gets back on the field soon.
Edu as well as Shea played in a U-21 match for Stoke on Saturday. The reports I saw weren't all that favorable for Edu but still he is working his way back which is a good sign.
thanks for the info – will be interesting to see what happens with their club situations.
To answer your original question though a sports hernia is not the same as a regular hernia. A normal hernia is a fairly easy procedure and quick recovery, but a sports hernia can take months to recover from because it is tearing more than just the wall of your intestines. Thus Edu being out for such a long time.
the other issue is, Edu had the entire summer off, so not only is he coming back from the surgery, he's got to work back to match fitness

Receiving the Blessing (1 of 4) by Jeff Strite
This content is part of a series.Receiving the Blessing (1 of 4)
Series: The Prayer of Jabez
Jeff Strite
1 Chronicles 4:9-10
OPEN: It's reported that a preacher in Redrock, Mississippi prayed this sermon:
''Oh Lord, give Thy servant this mornin' the eyes of the eagle and the wisdom of the owl; connect his soul with the gospel telephone in the central skies; 'luminate his brow with the Sun of heaven; possess his mind with love for the people; turpentine his imagination, grease his lips with 'possum oil, loosen his tongue with the sledge hammer of Thy power; 'lectrify his brain with the lightnin' of the word; put 'petual motion on his arms; fill him plum full of the dynamite of Thy glory; 'noint him all over with the kerosene oil of Thy salvation and SET HIM ON FIRE. Amen!''
We'd all agree, that was an unusual prayer.
APPLY: There are many unusual prayers throughout scripture, but the one we find here in I Chronicles 4 is perhaps one of the most unique. For centuries it has caught the attention of serious Bible students because - among other things - it pops up right in the middle of a text where you wouldn't expect it: a very boring genealogy.
Vs.4-6 ''Penuel was the father of Gedor, and Ezer the father of Hushah…. (and then) Ashhur, the father of Tekoa, had two wives, Helah and Naarah. Naarah bore him Ahuzzam, Hepher, Temeni and Haahashtari.'' And it goes on and on and on… Trust me, all that is important to somebody. It may not appeal to you or me -but it is important to someone.
But here, (in the midst of a very standard, very boring list), the Chronicler pauses and mentions this story about Jabez and his 2 sentence prayer.
When God does something like that (places the unusual in the midst of the commonplace) He tends to get our attention. And we realize as we read this, that God is using this contrast like a jeweler would use black velvet under a diamond to show off it's beauty
The 2nd reason this prayer catches a Bible student's attention is because it's so short. It's ...

text: Uptime: Strategies for Excellence in Maintenance Management, Third Edition by John D. Campbell, James V. Reyes-Picknell 2015 | ISBN: 1482252376 | English | 533 pages | PDF | 3 MB Uptime describes the combination of activities that deliver fewer breakdowns, improved productive capacity, lower costs, and better environmental performance. The bestselling second edition of Uptime has been used as a textbook on maintenance management in several postsecondary institutions and by many companies as the model framework for their maintenance management programs. Following in the tradition of its bestselling predecessors, explains how to deal with increasingly complex technologies, such as mobile and cloud computing, to support maintenance departments and set the stage for compliance with international standards for asset management. This updated edition reflects a far broader and deeper wealth of experience and knowledge. In addition, it restructures its previous model of excellence slightly to align what must be done more closely with how to do it. The book provides a strategy for developing and executing improvement plans that work well with the new values prevalent in today's workforce.

text: Apple launches iTunes Match a couple weeks late CUPERTINO, Califonia (TAL) — Apple has turned-on its Apple's iTunes Match service — after keeping people waiting for two weeks. The service which is to be accessed by paying a fixed $25-a-year for subscription promises to keep record of every song on a person's computer and the store the tunes in the cloud account (online account ondistant servers). The songs you have stored on the online server can then be downloaded or streamed to any other Apple devices without needing to physically connect them to the computer. Songs that are not recognized can be uploaded automatically. The service promises to function with multiple computers used by the same person by eliminating duplicates. Apple Inc. declined to comment on the delay. Apple had earlier said that iTunes Match would be available by the end of October. An earlier message on iTunes saying new accounts were not being accepted was posted in error and has since been removed. ©2015 TechAtLast Int'l Media, Inc. All Rights Reserved.

This system provides maximum curing energy through a 5 mm diameter light guide, with an output up to 15 W/cm2. The design also eliminates the safety concerns from the high heat generated by units with the LED array at the end of the wand. In addition, the relatively narrow frequency band produced by LEDs generates cooler curing temperatures at the substrate level. The unit is CE certified, RoHS compliant, offers user-friendly operation and touts a useful LED life of over 50,000 hours.

Aubrey McClendon is eying Utica shale development in Carroll and Columbiana counties in eastern Ohio.
McClendon, ousted last spring as CEO of Cheaspeake Energy Corp., the nation's No. 2 natural gas producer, has new Utica plans.
His company, American Energy Partners, has teamed up with a Texas firm, Orange Energy Consultants, to form Great River Energy.
That firm is seeking leases in southern Columbiana County and also in Carroll County, the East Liverpool Review reported on Sunday.
A similar partnership surfaced last week in Harrison and Guernsey counties between McClendon's firms and Red Hill Development, based outside of Dover in Tuscarawas County.

Having problems with your Ridgid 9 Gallon Wet/Dry Shop Vac 96882 Canister Vacuum ?
There are no known vacum bags for a model wd06350 vac
\015 I have 6gallon ridgid vac how do i insert a vacum bag in it to use into pick up drywall dust with it?\015
Answers :
Find a vacuum bag that figs over the cartridge filter, hold in place with a rubber band. There will still be some drywall dust escaping and the paper filter will need to be cleaned (brushed off) often. You can try adding some water to the canister to reduce the dust but it will make mud in the canister.
This type of vacuum does not use a bag. If you are worried about clogging the filter cartridge try using a paper filter for a shop-vac. They are relatively cheap and are available at most hardware and department stores. These are made to simply wrap around the big cartridge. A rubber band will hold it in place.

Hi, I have a Dirt Devil Model # M08100REDC. I desperately need to change the bag, but I don't see an obvious way to do it. I'm afraid to try pulling on the cloth tab thingy that's just below the handle, between the rubber ring that holds the bag on the vac, because it seems like stuff will fly everywhere from the force required to remove it, and I might not be able to get it back on there. Should I just pull on that cloth tab until the bag comes off? Thanks, Roberta
You can pull on the tab to remove the bag, but probably a better way is to gently pull on the rubber ring that attaches the bag to the back of the vacuum body. If you don't yank and ****, it should come off without spilling the dirt. There may also b ... Dirt Devil Classic M08100 Bagged Handheld Vacuum

Tax and accounting regulations
Tax and accounting regulations in Hong Kong
Although Hong Kong is considered by many to be an 'offshore' jurisdiction this is not the how the government classifies it. It is instead a low tax area with a territorial tax system. The tax laws are relatively simple therefore Hong Kong can be summarised as having an advantageous low tax rate coupled with a territorial tax system.
Corporation tax: The corporation tax rate is currently 16.5%.
Income tax: Hong Kong operates territorial taxation principle so any income earned outside of Hong Kong is not a subject to Hong Kong income tax. Taxpayers are taxed not on a residence status but on territorial principle i.e.: where profit was earned.
Foreign source income is exempt from income tax in Hong Kong. Income is not considered to be derived from Hong Kong if:
- A contract is concluded and signed outside of Hong Kong.
- Services are rendered outside of Hong Kong.
- Capital is employed outside of Hong Kong.
- Title of goods is passed outside of Hong Kong.
- Payment of expenses incurred in provision of services or delivery of goods is done outside of Hong Kong.
- The location where goods are stored and maintained is outside of Hong Kong.
- Hong Kong income and deemed Hong Kong source income is subject to income tax.
If any of the above activities are performed in Hong Kong then the revenue generated will be classified as Hong Kong income and therefore subject to income tax.
It is worth noting that the purchase or sales of commodities manufactured in Hong Kong is treated as a Hong Kong based income. Trade in commodities is considered as wholly offshore or onshore for a tax assessment purpose so even a small amount of trading activity in Hong Kong leads to the whole profit classified as originating onshore and therefore subject to Hong Kong income tax. With regards to the issue of agency agreements, the source of income is where duties are performed.
Capital gain tax (CGT): There is no capital gains tax in Hong Kong.
Withholding tax: Royalty income received from Hong Kong source is subject to income tax however generally there is no withholding tax on interest paid to non-residents.
Dividends: Dividend income is excluded from income tax and is no withholding tax on outgoing dividends.
Capital duties: Capital duty on increase of share capital is 0.01%.
International aspects of Cyprus taxation:
- Anti-avoidance regulation: Hong Kong tax code replicates the Australian Income tax model for anti-avoidance rules.
- Transfer pricing: There is specific transfer pricing legislation in Hong Kong which is based on 1918 UK tax regulation.
Double taxation treaties:
Until June 2001 Hong Kong had no comprehensive double taxation treaties in place. This was due to the territorial tax system that operates whereby only income / profit sourced in Hong Kong is subject is subject to tax. Income derived from outside Hong Kong is not taxed in Hong Kong. This principle therefore negates the need for double taxation treaties.
The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government however does recognise that there are merits in concluding double taxation agreements as it will provide advantages such as a greater certainty to investors on taxing rights, help investors to assess potential tax liabilities on certain economic activities and provide an incentive for overseas companies to do business in Hong Kong. In April 2010 the Commissioner of Inland Revenue of Hong Kong stated that the territory had entered into a new phase and would be actively be pursuing agreeing double taxation agreements with a number of countries. Under Article 151 of the Basic Law the territory can negotiate its own double taxation treaties independently from China as Hong Kong has the right to maintain an independent taxation system free from interference from the mainland until 2047.
Double taxation agreements are currently in force between Hong Kong and the following countries:
|Entry into force date
In March 2010 Hong Kong signed treaties with Brunei, the Netherlands and Indonesia.
Double taxation agreements between Hong Kong and the following countries await ratification: Austria, Hungary, Ireland, Kuwait and the UK.
If you would like additional information on Hong Kong double taxation agreements please contact us.
Annual reporting requirements:
- All Hong Kong companies are required to keep accounts.
- Accounts are required to be audited on an annual basis.
Opening a bank account in Hong Kong:
Eltoma Coporate Services work with the following Hong Kong banks:

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.

Inspired by "I'm Fine" by sadsmile
Fine, I say and step away
not knowing how much longer I'll fall slave
to hatred. For here, in May,
gotten infirmity from being brave.
Reflected back to me
I stare; oh how I've changed! Oh how I hate
to look at myself and see
the natural arroyo that's my fate.
The treachery this lie brings
compacts me and I know it's a sign
that these emotional swings
are all a part of not being fine.

Governor General Adrienne Clarkson presents the Governor General's Literary Award for poetry to George Elliott Clarke, of Toronto and originally of Windsor, Nova Scotia, during a ceremony at Rideau Hall, official residence of the Governor General in Ottawa, November 14, 2001. (CP PHOTO ARCHIVES/ Fred Chartrand)
First aired on The Next Chapter (15/04/13)
George Elliott Clarke's poetry collection Red is the latest in his series of so-called colouring books that began with Blue and then Black. Red includes love poems that mix the sexuality of ancient Rome with 1960s Italian pop songs, poems about his African-Canadian heritage and the Nova Scotia he grew up in, political critiques, odes to other poets he admires, and more personal poems about family.
Clarke is Toronto's latest poet laureate. He's also a novelist, librettist and playwright, and a professor of English at the University of Toronto.
Clarke first came up with the concept of colouring books in 2001, when Blue was published. "I liked the idea of blue and the various emotional ideas associated with the colour: ideas of censorship, of depression, ideas of dress. And that became an organizing principle for that book," he said. A few years later, he published Black, which was again a collection of random lyrics that played with different associations of the colour. As for the latest in the series, "Red spoke to me as a colour that once again has many different associations, political, emotional, love, of course, the erotic." He added that he hopes to put together a collection in the future called Gold.
"I have tended to write narrative poems, narrative collections, and plays and libretti for operas. Those projects have tended to dominate most of my output," Clarke explained. "But I also find myself writing the nature poems, the love poems, the political poems, the historical poems, and then the question is, what do I do with them? They don't belong in the projects, so these colouring books, as I'm now calling them, just seemed to be the right place to put them."
Clarke said that the colour red has personal associations. He's part aboriginal, and a major influence on his youth was Malcolm X, who was known in his 20s and in his teens as Detroit Red. He added that his politics are on the left. "But then when I think about it, colour speaks to everybody in some way," he said. "I'm not a painter, I'm not an artist, but colours speak to me in a literary and psychological way."
The colour red is also generally associated with love and passion, and the book includes some steamy poems. When asked about their inspiration, Clarke said it was the "shock" of reading classic poets like Marcial, Catullus and Ovid. "They were pre-Christian, and they tended to be honest and blunt and straightforward with their descriptions of sexuality." That was combined with Clarke's interest in Italian popular culture of the 1960s and '70s, which he described as "fun, bubbly, and full of joie de vivre, and innocent and sexy too."
Clarke's influences also include music. "I gravitate toward those voices like James Brown's, that are so expressive, so fundamental, deep down earthy, coming straight from the soul but with a great deal of art." He added that the culture of black Nova Scotia, where he grew up, is partly oral. "What I try to do as a poet is to get back to that. The roots of poetry are in song, anyway, song and storytelling, and I never want to get far away from that."
Clarke read a poem from Red called Taxi about his late father, and described his father's life as a young man in Halifax in the late 1950s. Though he was lower working class, he bought classical music, read widely and travelled to New York City to see foreign films. "In short, he was a working -class intellectual," Clarke said. His father was also a painter, and in fact the cover of Red is a reproduction of one of his portraits.
"His story is really tied in to the frustrations of his generation and to a certain extent the black experience," Clarke said. "He came out of a society that didn't believe it was valuable to educate black people, because we were supposed to be maids or servants anyway."
When his father passed away, he left Clarke a diary he'd kept in 1959, with a note attached that read, "For George, so he will understand." It was a year before Clarke could bring himself to read it, but he when he finally did, "I encountered someone I had never known in life, this gentleman who had lots of frustrations and lots of self doubt. In his life, my father never struck me as someone who had any doubts."

Siberian Huskies
My mum Linda and myself started out in huskies almost 7 years ago with our first boy Diesel. Before jumping in, we researched the breed and visited kennels throughout Scotland and attended shows to learn more about this beautiful breed.
We have been extremely successful in the short period of time showing, gaining stud book numbers, which is a life time qualifier for Crufts, with 3 of our dogs.
We run our dogs mostly for fun and to keep them fit and have recently started competing at rallies. Our first competitive rally saw us coming 2nd out of 6 teams .... (click to read more)

Grieving families have been told not to put plastic flowers in a garden of remembrance because they pose a health and safety risk.
Council officials have banned plastic memorials in case they get caught in mowers.
Workmen removed several displays from a cemetery in Keynsham, near Bristol, and moved them to the chapel of rest for collection by loved ones.
Where have all the flowers gone? Graham Lees with the council notice at Keynsham Cemetery's Garden of Remembrance, where his father's ashes lie
Retired school teacher Graham Lees, 60, regularly visits the Garden of Remembrance in Keynsham Cemetery, near Bristol, to pay his respects to his late father Ernest.
He said Keynsham Town Council's plan had been 'very upsetting' for his entire family and is now demanding the decision is overturned.
'In the 42 years since I started visiting my father's final resting place I have always seen artificial flowers placed on graves throughout the cemetery, so to say it is unsafe now is total rubbish,' he said.
'Their sudden removal was very upsetting for my mother, who is in her 80s and has placed flowers, both real and artificial, in memorial vases continuously since my father died in 1966 and my stepfather in 1996.
'My mother hates the idea of leaving an empty vase as it seems the loved one is forgotten and the thought of the dead flowers left, smelling of putrid water, is very upsetting.
'The council really needs to rethink this decision as it is upsetting for all concerned.'
Mr Lees added that many elderly people were being forced to buy artificial flowers as they were looking at ways to save cash during the effects of the credit crunch.
'Most artificial flowers are left because financially the elderly can't afford to continually buy real ones, and since the bus stop outside the cemetery has been removed it makes it even harder for them to visit frequently,' he said.
'Many of the artificial flowers that people place are very new, life-like and obviously bought at some expense,' he added. 'They could be no way called unsightly.'
The ban applies only to the cemetery's Garden of Remembrance where ashes and memorial plaques are placed - not to the main graveyard where the plots provide enough room for flowers so they do not get in the way of mowers.
The council says it has always had a ban on plastic flowers in the garden but had not enforced it fully until staff complained that cutting the grass was becoming difficult.
Warning signs went up in June and the plastic floral displays were removed last month.
A spokeswoman said: 'It became more of a problem over time with more people leaving more and more mementoes, which makes it difficult for staff to carry out maintenance.
'We also have heath-and-safety reasons to consider: if the flowers get caught up in the lawnmower the bits of plastic flying around could be very dangerous.'
In June Croydon Council banned plastic flowers from an elderly accommodation block because they were also deemed to be a health-and-safety risk.

The Book of Psalms is a book in both the Hebrew and Christian Bibles consisting of 150 poems originally written to be chanted or sung and accompanied by musical instruments. In fact, the word "psalm" comes from the Greek word "psalmoi", meaning "songs sung to a harp". In content they express virtually the entire range of the Jewish religious experience and faith.
The Psalms are thought to have been written in the first millennium before Christ, perhaps earlier. Although many of the Psalms are attributed to David, doubts persist. Whoever the authors may have been, the collected poems are a powerful testimony to the faith of the Jewish people. They weave a spell of spiritual longing and hope that endures to the present day among people of many faiths.

Orson Welles Still Fascinates
By ALJEAN HARMETZ, Special to the New York Times
Published: April 7, 1988
HOLLYWOOD, April 6— When Orson Welles died in 1985, he left behind a pile of scripts that were never made into movies.
One of Welles's last screenplays, ''The Big Brass Ring,'' written in 1981-82, has just been published by the Santa Teresa Press of Santa Barbara, Calif. The protagonist of ''The Big Brass Ring'' is Blake Pellarin, a glamorous, womanizing, liberal United States Senator who hopes to become President.
''There is the notion of the self-destructiveness within candidates,'' said William G. Simon, chairman of the cinema studies department at New York University. ''Imagine if the script had been made and the film had come out recently.''
Rejected by Hollywood during the last decades of his life, Welles, who died in October 1985 at the age of 70, still is fascinating to film buffs, historians and scholars, and starting this month the university and the Public Theater will focus their attention on his career.
The university is mounting a photographic exhibition of his theater career and a listening room for his radio programs, while the Public Theater will provide a retrospective of his films. From May 5 to 8, the school will hold an academic conference on Welles. Many Rejected Role
According to an essay by Jonathan Rosenbaum published with the script of ''The Big Brass Ring,'' Arnon Milchan, the producer of ''Brazil,'' was willing to back the film if Welles could find a superstar to play Pellarin. Mr. Rosenbaum, the film critic for The Chicago Reader, writes that the director was turned down by Warren Beatty, Clint Eastwood, Paul Newman, Jack Nicholson, Robert Redford and Burt Reynolds.
The script deals with many of the themes to which Welles returned again and again throughout his career, including a journalist investigating a legendary figure and the mentor-protege relationship of an older man and a younger one.
In ''The Big Brass Ring,'' there is a new element. The older man, Kim Menaker, who was to have been played by Welles himself, is a homosexual. A former adviser to President Franklin D. Roosevelt, Menaker is now an emotional captive of an African despot. Pellarin's impulsive journey to see Menaker is a trip to the heart of darkness of intrigue and betrayal that so often interested Welles.
''This script disproves the charge that Welles was not a very good writer,'' said Mr. Rosenbaum. ''That charge was widely believed after Pauline Kael's book.'' (In ''The Citizen Kane Book,'' Ms. Kael gave all the credit for the creation of ''Citizen Kane'' to Herman Mankiewicz.) ''Welles did enormous quantities of rewriting. He did nine drafts of 'The Dreamers,' which is based on two Isak Dinesen stories. And the scripts disprove the charge that he was inactive in his last years.'' Waiting in the Wings
''The Cradle Will Rock,'' another screenplay by Welles, is scheduled to be published by the end of the year, also by Santa Teresa Press (P.O. Box 2711, Santa Barbara, Calif. 93120). If all goes well, it will be followed by his script for ''King Lear.'' Mr. Rosenbaum is working with Oja Kodar, Welles's companion during the last years of his life, who helped the director on ''The Big Brass Ring.'' Ms. Kodar inherited the unfinished films and unproduced scripts the director worked on during his last decade.
''The Cradle Will Rock'' tells the story of the censorship and intrigue that accompanied the first production of ''The Cradle Will Rock,'' a left-wing musical by Marc Blitzstein. The 1937 play set in a mythological Steeltown, U.S.A., a city controlled by a greedy and corrupt industrialist, was disowned by the Federal Theater Project as a dangerous, anti-government play a few days before it was supposed to open. Last-Minute Failure
''I have thousands of pages of handwritten revisions of the script,'' said Michael Fitzgerald, a producer who defended Welles against accusations that he lacked discipline and dedication. ''Not a single thing in his reputation turned out to be true. He was terribly disciplined.''
The script was finished during the summer of 1984. Mr. Fitzgerald, the producer of ''Wise Blood,'' was to produce the movie. He said Ted Pedas, the owner of Circle Theaters, had agreed to finance a $5 million film, with a cast that included Rupert Everett as Welles, David Ogden Stiers as John Houseman and Amy Irving as Welles's wife. Shooting was to begin in January 1985, with Welles directing.
''In December, Pedas backed out,'' said Mr. Fitzgerald. ''I even had a completion guarantee, but Pedas came to Los Angeles and talked to people and got panicky. Not even John Huston and Jeff Berg could convince him that if the movie was in focus he'd get his money back. Orson was absolutely heartbroken. So many times this sort of thing had happened to him. Before we had a chance to regroup, he died.''

'Five Easy Pieces' Actress Karen Black Dies After Long Cancer Battle: Watch 5 Clips of Her Best Roles
Being an aging actress in Hollywood is tough. But Karen Black had it more difficult than most. This past March, with her money from her '70s golden age starring in films like Easy Rider and The Great Gatsby all spent, she took to Kickstarter to fund her treatment for ampullary cancer. She almost doubled her goal of $32,000 before she stopped accepting donations in June. But late Thursday afternoon, word broke that Black had died of her disease. She was 74.
Black starred in some of the greatest films of the '60s and '70s. In her memory, here are clips from five of her greatest performances.
Easy Rider (1969)
Black played a prostitute named Karen in Dennis Hopper's counterculture road movie. Even in a relatively small part you couldn't take your eyes off her.
Five Easy Pieces (1970)
Her best known role may be as Rayette Dipesto in Bob Rafelson's study of Boomer individualism. The whole movie is a showcase for Jack Nicholson's "me me me" scenery chewing, but Black's quiet presence is striking. If Jack is like the wild tetherball, flailing about in all directions, she's like the pole, grounded and steady.
The Great Gatsby (1974)
Isla Fisher opted for a more comical take on Tom Buchanan's lover Myrtle in Baz Luhrmann's Gatsby flick. Almost 40 years earlier, Black played Myrtle as a deluded dreamer with a crazed look in her eyes. She really is kind of terrifying in this scene.
Nashville (1975)
As doomed country singer Connie White, Black showed how imprisoning fame can be in Robert Altman's masterpiece. There's no video available online showing just her work in Nashville, but she discusses the film in the above interview.
Family Plot (1976)
In Alfred Hitchcock's last film, Black donned a platinum blonde wig for a largely mute role as a jewel thief. She exudes steely malice, especially when tangling with Bruce Dern, who'd previously played Tom Buchanan in The Great Gatsby.

Lower blepharoplasty procedure done 9 days ago. Normal swelling and bruising. Knot found under the right eye. What is it?
I had lower blepharoplasty on July 16. 9 days ago. I am experiencing normal recovery brushing and swelling. I found a pea size knot under my right eye yesterday. It is in the right side on my eye. Just below the eyelash line. I had dissolvable sutures with the surgery. There is no infection. No excess swelling. No pain. What is it? I called my doctors office. And the doctor seemed unconcerned. Recommends cool compresses and head elevation. Just want some other opinions. Please
Doctor Answers 4
Lateral blepharoplasty irregularity
At day 9..you are stil very early on in the healing process. This may be a deeper absorbable suture that is used to anchor you eyelid. Definitely be examined at your next visit but there seems to be no huge reason for alarm.
Lower blepharoplasty procedure done 9 days ago.
No cause for concern, this is normal and will get better as your swelling goes down. Keep all scheduled follow up appointment with your surgeon and follow his or her post-op instructions . It can take several months before you get to you final result. Best wishes, Dean Vistnes.
Luymp post eye lift
Since you are only 9 days post op I wouldn't be too worried.Maybe some heat and massage would help .If in doubt always go back to your plastic surgeon to get it checked out.

Small hematoma
I agree with your surgeon. It is probably nothing to worry about. It could be a hematoma which will get resorbed by your body. Since you have no pain or redness at the bump site, infection is unlikely. Give it time and you should heal well. Good luck.

This provides two benefits: detection of leaked pooled objects (when returnObject() isn't called) with a stack trace and detection of using pooled objects after they have been returned to the pool. The system provides a delegate which can be placed in front of any ObjectPool, similar to calling Collections.unmodifiableCollection().

What are our sources of funding?
Trident Academy receives money from these sources: tuition and other fees, contributions from trustees, parents, alumni, faculty and staff, grandparents, friends, foundations, community organizations, and auxiliary sources such as parent organizations (TAPA)
Why do we ask for contributions for and investments in the futures of our students?
Because tuition does not fully cover the expenses incurred by Trident Academy each year, we also ask for philanthropic gifts which support our mission and provide resources which benefit our students. As with most private schools, these gifts are needed to meet our annual expenses, and to improve and add programs for our students. Without additional funding, we wouldn't be able to provide students with:
- more individualized instruction
- cutting-edge programs
- assistive technology
- tuition assistance
- other elements that comprise a first-class education
Over the years, have most families given in addition to paying tuition?
Yes. Throughout the history of Trident Academy, generous supporters have made annual gifts in varying amounts, as well as having given for comprehensive facilities improvement programs. This level of commitment is essential to meet our financial obligations, enhance and expand our programs and facilities, and plan for the future.
Ours is a school founded and supported by many generous families who have given throughout the years. Your child is benefiting from the philanthropic support of donors whose children and grandchildren have long since graduated from Trident Academy. These families made giving to the school a priority to ensure the success of our school. We are asking our current families to continue in this tradition, for current and future generations of Trident Academy students.
May contributions be designated?
Yes, you may make designations for your gift. Within the Annual Fund, gifts may be made for the following three broad categories:
- Academics and teaching
- Scholarships and tuition assistance
- Unrestricted
Unrestricted gifts help underwrite the school's operations and areas of greatest needs. Gifts may also be restricted for other purposes or projects. Restricted gifts are used only for the purposes for which they were given.
Our expert faculty and proven approaches ensure that students will be able to successfully transition to mainstream learning environments. One of our measures of success is the list of noteworthy college prep schools into which our students have successfully transitioned, such as Porter-Gaud, Ashley Hall, Charleston Collegiate School, and Mason Preparatory School, as well as rigorous public schools.
Another metric is the list of colleges and universities our alumni have gone on to attend, when perhaps this level of academic achievement was not thought possible during students' early years. Our alumni have attended colleges and universities such as:
- Note Dame
- University of South Carolina
- Fresno-Pacific University
- The Citadel
- The College of Charleston
- Randolph Macon College
- Converse College
How are contributions made?
Gifts of cash, credit card, appreciated stocks, and gifts- in- kind may be made to Trident Academy. Donors may visit our online donations page at www.tridentacademy.com. Deferred gifts, although not counted in our Annual Fund totals, are welcome and may be made by naming the school as a beneficiary of a will, a trust, an IRA, or a life insurance policy.
Learn more about the suggested language for the will bequest.
Learn more about the confirmation of deferred gift.
Are gifts tax deductible?
Yes. As a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, contributions to Trident Academy are acknowledged in writing and are deductible to the full extent allowed by law.
How are gifts stewarded?
Trident Academy believes in being donor-centered and aspires to platinum level stewardship in due diligence for the resources provided by donors. The Donor Bill of Rights is at the core of our philosophy. Therefore, donors may be assured that they will receive timely gift acknowledgments, prompt and truthful responses in reply to inquiries on giving, and information on the use of their gifts. We are a Gold level exchange member on GuideStar, a measure of our commitment to transparency and accountability.
Is there someone to contact for further information on giving to Trident Academy?
Joy Simpson, Director of Advancement, will be glad to speak with you regarding giving to Trident Academy.

Fifth grader Louie Burger figures that with a goofy name like his, he must be destined to be a king of comedy like his idol Lou Lafferman. But he's only ever performed his stand-up act in his closet, where he and his dad created the most exclusive comedy club ever--if by "exclusive" you mean that no one's ever allowed inside. With the school talent show coming up, Louie's wondering if now is his moment to kill (that's comedian talk for "make actual people laugh"). And maybe, if he brings down the house, he'll win back his former best friend Nick--who seems to be turning into one of those annoying sporty types--and fend off his dad's home-improvement obsession, which threatens to remodel Louie's comedy closet into a private bedroom for his older sister. Barftrocious!
