Gosford Park
- No Rating Available
Movie Review
As one can observe by the partial credits listed here, Gosford Park is the very definition of an ensemble effort. Director Robert Altman has assembled a horde of Britain's best actors to create a film about an aristocratic murder that will, unfortunately, befuddle most of us working-class Americans.
On one level Gosford Park is a simple, retro, formulaic whodunit flick. Was it the butler in the drawing room with the kitchen knife? Or the valet in the den with the poison? But never mind the mystery, Altman is much more interested in creating a tapestry of colorful personas—visages that float and dance throughout the film, framed inside layer upon layer of vignettes.
Halfway through the movie, most theatergoers won't even know who the main characters are. You're pretty sure Sir William and at least two of the maids (Mary and Elsie) are going to come into focus, but as for the rest, the guessing has only begun. And that's just Altman's style, which was good enough (at least in the mind of The Academy) to win a Best Picture nomination.
At the risk of sounding anti-intellectual, Gosford Park plays out like a century-old version of Big Brother. A bunch of people are trapped in house, bickering, fighting, eating, competing, necking in hallways and having sex. Instead of occupying a prefab flat constructed on a Hollywood back lot, here the rich and the royal have gathered at Sir William's grand estate in England for food and pheasant hunting. Naturally, they're not allowed to leave when—about an hour and a half into the film—murder spoils the party. Everyone's a suspect. Let the deals, alliances and back-stabbing begin.
positive elements: Setting his tale in 1932, Altman scratches the surface of society's shifting social classes. Henry Denton, who is a Hollywood actor posing as a valet, infiltrates the ranks of the servants. His actions highlight the inequities. The pain of being "forced" to give up one's child is explored as the past of one of the servants comes to light. She had had a child out of wedlock and, to preserve her employment, she put the baby in an orphanage. She has regretted it ever since.
nudity and sexual content: The servants in Sir William's house are particularly amorous, cavorting behind closed doors and in closets, making out and having sex. Numerous times the camera pans past clinched couples in various stages of undress. Mary and Elsie take turns bathing (the camera gazes down on bare backs and carefully obscured breasts). Before her bath, Elsie wears a revealing slip. It is intimated that Henry has sex on two occasions with one of the upper-crust ladies and tries to forcibly bed Mary (she resists and is rescued when another servant enters the room). A vague reference to homosexual attraction is made. And Sir William fondles Elsie's breasts under the guise of rubbing dog hair off her blouse.
violent content: A man is stabbed. Henry forcibly tries to subdue the struggling Mary while he kisses her. Pheasants are shot.
crude or profane language: Seven f-words and two s-words tumble about amongst a few other milder profanities. Christ's name is misused about six times.
drug and alcohol content: Nearly everyone, from the lowliest servant to the mightiest houseguest, smokes. Cigarettes. Cigars. Pipes. Alcohol is served with every meal and the men guzzle great quantities after each meal.
other negative elements: Mary concludes in the end that it would do no good to tell the police what she knows about the murder because, "what purpose could it possibly serve, anyway?" Nobody liked the victim. And Mary likes the guy who's guilty (or is he?). Therefore, it's okay to keep it all to herself. Need I explain why that's a terrible thing?
conclusion: Outside of its vast array of vividly sketched characters Gosford Park is a rather mundane British murder mystery. Still, it's not afraid to make fun of itself by including a subplot about a Hollywood filmmaker in the process of making a British murder mystery. Alas, the joke falls flat. Henry asks one of the maids if the Brits have any sense of humor at all. Her response? "Yes, when something's funny." Indeed.
Subtlety Gosford Park has aplenty. And the appreciation of such low-key storytelling has become something of a lost art. Altman makes significant comments through his characters about class divisions, gender relationships, marriages, wealth, bitterness, greed and lust. But they're all buried. Deeply buried. I got the feeling that if I watched the film three or four more times, I would begin to truly appreciate the depth intended. But by the time the credits rolled, I had no desire to do so. The overall story wasn't compelling enough on an emotional level for me to want to come back for more. I wasn't invested in any one of the characters enough to want to take the journey again.
"The movie spends all its 137 minutes convincing us how dazzlingly intellectual it is," wrote Christopher Null for Filmcritic.com. That's exactly why Oscar came calling. And it's exactly why The New York Times gushed, "A virtuoso ensemble piece . . . in its masterly interweaving of multiple characters and subplots." But it was Eric Lurio of the Greenwich Village Gazette that got it just right for masses of moviegoers everywhere: "If you're an Anglophile, you'll enjoy it. If not, don't bother." I can add only one bit to that. If you think you're an Anglophile because you loved Sense and Sensibility, you still needn't bother.

Molecule Sentence Examples
- If a-naphthylamine and a-naphthol be reduced, the hydrogen atoms attach themselves to the non-substituted half of the molecule, and the compounds so obtained resemble aminodiethylbenzene, C 6 H 3 NH 2 (C 2 H 5) 21 and oxydiethylbenzene, C 6 H 3.
- For the complete determination of the chemical structure of any compound, three sets of data are necessary: (I) the empirical chemical composition of the molecule; (2) the constitution, i.e.
- It is evident that this is practicable if the number and kind of atoms contained in the molecule of a compound can be determined.
- Thus from the acid-amides, which we have seen to be closely related to the acids themselves, we obtain, by replacing the carbonyl oxygen by chlorine, the acidamido-chlorides, R CC1 2 NH 2, from which are derived the imido-chlorides, R CC1:NH, by loss of one molecule of hydrochloric acid.
- We may suppose that in the formation of gaseous hydrochloric acid from gaseous chlorine and hydrogen, according to the equation H2 +C1 2 = HCI+HC1, a certain amount of energy is expended in separating the atoms of hydrogen in the hydrogen molecule, and the atoms of chlorine in the chlorine molecule, from each other; but that heat is developed by the combination of the hydrogen atoms with the chlorine atoms, and that, as more energy is developed by the union of the atoms of hydrogen and chlorine than is expended in separating the hydrogen atoms from each other and the chlorine atoms from one another, the result of the action of the two elements upon each other is the development of heat, - the amount finally developed in the reaction being the difference between that absorbed in decomposing the elementary molecules and that developed by the combination of the atoms of chlorine and hydrogen.


text:
Surrounded by enemies, the once-great nation of Ravka has been torn in two by the Shadow Fold, a swath of near impenetrable darkness crawling with monsters who feast on human flesh. Now its fate may rest on the shoulders of one lonely refugee.
Alina Starkov has never been good at anything. But when her regiment is attacked on the Fold and her best friend is brutally injured, Alina reveals a dormant power that saves his life—a power that could be the key to setting her war-ravaged country free. Wrenched from everything she knows, Alina is whisked away to the royal court to be trained as a member of the Grisha, the magical elite led by the mysterious Darkling.
Yet nothing in this lavish world is what it seems. With darkness looming and an entire kingdom depending on her untamed power, Alina will have to confront the secrets of the Grisha . . . and the secrets of her heart.
Leigh Bardugo is an author who it's impossible not to have heard of. Between the popularity of the Grisha trilogy and the sheer fangirling surrounding Six of Crows and Crooked Kingdom, I thought it was high time I jump on board the great ship Bardugo to find out if all of the hype is warranted.
Shadow and Bone starts off with some pretty standard stereotypes that will almost certainly be familiar to you if you've read more than three YA fantasy novels in your lifetime. Girl who thinks she's ugly but is actually pretty hot fancies her best mate but thinks he's not interested? Check! Darkness rising and war likely on the way? Check. Protagonist who thinks they're as ordinary as Tesco value white bread but actually turns out to have a kick ass power that may or may not change the world? Double check. We have a full house!
Although I had my preconceptions when starting this book, I was pleasantly surprised to find that despite thematic similarities to lots of YA fantasy on the market at the moment, Shadow and Bone contains lots of nice things that make it pretty unique. The setting (a kind of fantasy representation of Russia called Ravka) carries this book. I've not come across a anything like it in young adult fantasy before, and I found the parallels with eastern Europe and the folklore drawn upon both curious and totally engaging.
The story follows a young woman named Alina, a cartographer in the First Army (pretty cool) and her childhood friend, Mal, a tracker. For as long as anyone can remember, Ravka has been cut in half by a swathe of pure darkness called the Shadow Fold. The Fold and the creatures which live within must be braved if soldiers are to make it to the other side of the country to receive arms and other vital supplies. During a trip across the Fold which goes awry, Alina uses a power she didn't know she possessed to save Mal's life. Confused and terrified, she is immediately whisked away to live and train with the Grisha; mysterious and revered elemental warriors who make up Ravka's Second Army, led by the charming and otherwordly Darkling.
Alina was an easy character to relate to, and I felt like she was consistent in her behaviour throughout the story, which is definitely refreshing in the world of young adult fantasy. She was convincing as a confused young woman thrust into a new and dangerous world, trying to master a power she didn't know she had. Despite being heralded as the potential saviour of her country, she didn't come across as entitled and her sarcastic nature and quick wit added some much-needed humour into what was otherwise quite a dark story. It took me a little while to warm to Mal, but his character certainly had some good development (if a bit too much brooding for my liking) as the plot progressed. If you want to know what I think, though, the Darkling is where its really at. Both slippery and seductive, I immensely enjoyed trying and failing to work out what his motives and allegiances were. The supporting characters aren't anything to write home about, but a special mention goes to the Grisha combat trainer, Botkin, who despite very few appearances, provided me with some welcome moments of comic relief.
The plot is tightly woven and sure footed, and it feels like a lot happens in the space of a relatively short read. There's a good balance of action, romance and intrigue and I really enjoyed the tension that built throughout as Alina played out a dangerous game of cat and mouse across Ravka. The mythology in the book became more complex and important as the plot progressed, and although I felt like Bardugo had a good handle on what part magic and lore had to play, I didn't always feel the same as a reader. One of my criticisms of Shadow and Bone is that the author dives into the world at a level above the reader's comprehension, kind of like being given a university maths textbook to study from when you're predicted a C at GCSE. Although it meant I could better identify with Alina's confusion over her new position as Grisha, I would have been happy to forsake a little bit of pace for a deeper and more sound understanding of the basics of Grisha power and Ravkan culture and lore, not to mention the pronunciation of the words and names. Pronunciation guides are highly underrated, but they really can make for a much easier reading process and this is a prime example of where one would have come in handy.
The dialogue is brilliantly written, and Bardugo's talent lies in the ebb and flow of communication that she creates between her characters. There's never any stilted conversations or perceived awkwardness in their interactions, and that, combined with the intriguing world building, makes for an authentic-feeling read. I can't say much more about the plot without ruining the lovely little twists for you, but I can say that I very much enjoyed the surprises along the way, which kept me guessing about what was going to happen at the end of the book. All in all, a unique and interesting start to what I'm sure will be an entertaining series.
In summary…
Stars out of five:
- Publisher: Indigo (UK)
- Pages: 308
- Publication Date: 6th June 2013
- For fans of: Sarah J. Maas, fantasy, action and adventure, eastern European culture.

Startup Considerations
Starting up a business is quite hard because there are a lot of things that one must consider before the whole thing starts to take shape. Big businesses all came from somewhere and they all started with considering things and making decisions on the way until them made it to where they are now. Today, we are going to look at some of thing things that you should really consider when it comes to starting up a business and the things that you should never ignore so let us being.
Business analysts are people who can really help you analyze whether or whether not your business is going to work or not so it is really important to never overlook this consideration. A business analyst can really help you analyze a business so you will really know if the business plans you are making will work or not. Hiring a business analyst can really help you see further ahead of what you are planning out. Analyzing a business can be really difficult and if you try to do it all on your own, this can be taking up too much of your time when you would rather be focusing on other things so it is really beneficial that you hire a business analyst. Starting up a business in itself can be really hard and if you are still new at all these things, hiring a professional to analyze your business can really help you a whole lot.
Another thing that you really should incorporate and consider when you are starting up a business is that you should really consider using cloud storage. There are many businesses that are really doing very well because these businesses are using cloud storage for their files and docs. Cloud computing is also very beneficial to consider for a new business just starting up. The reason you should consider using cloud computing for your business when you are still starting up is because if you do not use cloud storage when you first start up, you may use other ways of computing things and if this does not work out well, you will have to switch to cloud computing which can take a while to adjust to. Then next time you are considering something for your business, you should really consider cloud computing or anything about cloud, you should really get using cloud into your business. Using cloud is very easy and you can benefit a lot from using cloud so if you are a new business, you should really consider using cloud and if you are an old business that does not yet use cloud computing, you should really get it now because it is not too late yet.

Though for a long time it was hypothesized that the extraordinary diversity of phytophagous insects was better explained by a synchronous pattern of co-diversification with plants, the results of recent studies have led to question this theory, suggesting that the diversification of insects occurred well after that of their hosts.

Welcome to our Blogtalkradio !
I am excited to announce that my Dear Friend Kristie Daigle will come on the the Phone with us to share much information about what the universe wants us to know through Enochian Astrology.
Kristie will bring forward and share very important Channeled messages and Energy that the Universe gives us through Symbols , she taps into the constellation ,planets and stars through Enochian astrology .
This week I'll be talking about our next Mercury retrograde, and this one is probably one of the most important Mercury retrogrades we've had in a while because Mercury will be going backward though Gemini, the sign he is most comfortable in. And at the same time, our Sun is shining through Gemini too. So even the people who don't seem to be affected by Mercury retrogrades are probably going to feel this one! We'll also take a look at the trine that is forming between Venus and Pluto, and an exact square between Venus, Lilith and the sea god Poseidon. And of course I will continue to leave time for any questions you want to ask. I hope you'll join me for all that and more!
please call into the show with questions .
it will be fun fun fun !!
Please come and join us every friday at 11 am Pacific time .

Tea in a tank
British Boiling Vessel
The British drink about 165 million cups of tea every day and even the war could not root out this age-old habit. During the World War II, the British government realized that it had a problem: they needed a way to keep their soldiers safe during tea time. The troops, who wouldn't skip tea time even when Nazis were afoot, had to climb out of their armored cars and tanks to brew the leafy beverage on the roadside.
January 11, 2017
PanARMENIAN.Net - Ever since, all British tanks and most AFVs (armored fighting vehicles) have been equipped with tea making facilities.
The story goes that the British forces were taking heavy blows after the Invasion of Normandy in 1944. After losing two Cromwell tanks already, the rest of the battalion was heading deeper into France and was about 18 miles away from city Caen when they stopped to have some tea, which forced them outside of the vehicles.
Just 200 meters away, however, a German Tiger tank watched unnoticed.
The tank's commander was Michael Wittman, a highly-decorated veteran of the Battle of Kursk. Wittman had only just completed a five-day drive from Beauvais. His 12-tank company had winnowed to just four serviceable vehicles. Despite exhaustion and shortages, Wittman immediately recognized the opportunity before him.
"I had no time to assemble my company," he said later. "Instead, I had to act quickly, as I had to assume that the enemy had already spotted me and would destroy me where I stood. I set off with one tank and passed the order to the others not to retreat a single step but to hold their ground."
Wittman destroyed a Sherman Firefly - the only British tank carrying the 17-pound gun and thus the only immediate threat to the superior Tiger. His experienced gunner Balthasar Woll continued firing on the move, picking off three parked Cromwells along the road before extending the one-tank rampage through the crossroads town of Villers-Bocage, where the other three Tigers provided reinforcement.
Overall, the British lost 14 tanks, nine half-tracks, four gun carriers and two anti-tank guns in just the first 15 minutes of the battle.
In 1946, the British Medical Research Council published "A Survey of Casualties Amongst Armored Units in Northwest Europe." It found that 37 percent of all armored regiment casualties from March 1945 until the end of the war some months later were crew members outside their vehicles. These findings prompted the British government to create the British Boiling Vessel (BV).
Unofficially known as a kettle or bivvie, the device draws power from the vehicle's electricity supply and permits the crew not only to make tea, but also boil water or cook food. This is particularly important since it allows the vehicle's crew to produce hot water for washing or drinking purposes and simultaneously heat up tinned or decanted food. All of this can be done inside the vehicle itself, meaning the crew can remain protected from enemy fire. This applies even if there was danger of radioactive fallout or chemical weapons, which were considered a very real threat during the Cold War.
The boiler vessel was first fitted to the postwar Centurion MBT (main battle tank). Its design drew from the British Army's experiences in North Africa. It went on to become one of the most ubiquitous MTBs, serving almost everywhere the British had any influence: Iraq, India and South Africa.
The basic concept of the boiling vessel has not changed since the 1950s. The large container quickly boils and maintains the heat of a gallon of water for drinking, washing and heating tinned and retort rations.
The idea proved catching. The U.S. Army has added boiling vessels to its Abrams tanks and Bradley fighting vehicles. Some other countries also followed the example.

Goals by Brown Ideye, Kelechi Iheanacho and Odion Ighalo helped Nigeria beat Luxembourg in Tuesday's international friendly in Luxembourg City. The victory makes it two in a row for coach Salisu Yusuf's Super Eagles. The match was watched by a sparse crowd at the Stade Josy Barthel. The friendly is Nigeria's first match with Luxembourg at full senior level.
In his first start since 2013, Brown Ideye opened scoring for the Nigerians before Kelechi Iheanacho scored his second goal in two games. Odion Ighalo came off the bench to nail the match.
Metz's Vincent Thill's late goal was consolation for a matchless Luxembourg side.
Coach Salisu Yusuf had made six changes to the side that narrowly defeated Mali in Rouen last week. He brought on Ideye in place of Ighalo, goalkeeper Daniel Akpeyi for Carl Ikeme and Kenneth Omeruo for Leon Balogun.
Read: Real Madrid Win UEFA Champions League
Nigeria dominated the match with as much as 72 per cent of possession in the first half for which they were rewarded with Ideye's goal on 36 minutes as the striker pounced early after goalkeeper Anthony Moris had punched out Ogenyi Onazi's shot from outside the box. This came after key misses from Alex Iwobi and Aminu Umar who started in place of Moses Simon.
Both Iwobi and Umar made way early at the restart for Michael Babatunde and Simon as Luxembourg coach Luc Holtz also sent on Thill in place of Florian Bohnert. The Super Eagles consolidated their lead on 69 minutes when Simon turned provider for Iheanacho to convert a simple tap in after Moris had been left stranded.
Relive Yobo's Testimonial Match
Coach Yusuf made further changes bringing on Gbenga Arokoyo for William Troost-Ekong in defence, Wilfried Ndidi and Raheem Lawal for Ogenyi Onazi and Shehu Abdullahi in midfield. Luxembourg did not give up and would notch a goal on 90 minutes when Thill found the Nigerian defence open and shot past Akpeyi. The goal was received with wild celebrations on the field and in the bleacher stands.
Manchester City's Iheanacho assisted for Ighalo who came off the bench to make it 3-1 in added-on time.
The friendly matches are preparatory for the 2018 World Cup qualification slated in June.
Nigeria XI: Daniel Akpeyi, Musa Muhammed, Elderson Echiejile, William Troost-Ekong, Kenneth Omeruo, Ogenyi Onazi, Aminu Umar, Shehu Abdullahi, Brown Ideye, Alex Iwobi, Kelechi Iheanacho.

In an announcement made on May 20, 2015, Governor Rick Snyder and legislative leaders agreed on spending targets for the fiscal year 2016 budget. The agreed upon spending targets includes an additional $400 million in General Fund money to help repair Michigan roads and bridges. The agreement is an important step as lawmakers and Governor Snyder continue work on the 2016 budget, which goes into effect on October 1, 2015. The agreement marks the fifth straight year that Michigan's budget is on course for completion in June.
On Wednesday, May 27, 2015, the House-Senate conference committee on the Department of Community Health (DCH) budget met to reconcile the differences between the budgets proposed by the Michigan Senate and House of Representatives, including noteworthy topics for Michigan Health Centers such as the statewide expansion of Healthy Kids Dental and funding for Graduate Medical Education (GME).
Under the final version of the budget for DCH, now a part of the Department of Health and Human Services, the Healthy Kids Dental program will see an increase of $37 million ($12.7 million General Fund) to expand services into the final three counties not currently included (Kent, Oakland, and Wayne) to cover children ages 0-12. As for GME, the final budget restores Executive Order funding cuts to maintain GME funding at the same level as it received at the beginning of the 2014-15 fiscal year. The budget was unanimously adopted by today by the conference committee.

Please use the form above to request admissions info for Santiago Canyon College.
Electrical engineers design and test new electrical equipment such as electric motors, communications systems, and power generators. Electronics engineering technicians, on the other hand, work in product evaluation and testing, using measuring and diagnostic equipment. They are also involved in the deployment of new equipment in factory automation. Electrical engineering (EECS) has several sub-disciplines, including power engineering, software development, and control engineering. Electrical engineers with an EECS bachelors degree earned an average salary of $95,230 in 2017, while engineering technicians with an associates degree earned $61,130 annually.
The field of electric power engineering deals with the generation, transmission, and distribution of electricity. These include transformers, electric generators, electric motors, high voltage engineering, and power electronics. Electrical power engineers maintain and develop the electric power grid, that connects a variety of electrical generators and step-down transformers, using high-voltage transmission lines. Digital signal processing relates to the analysis and manipulation of signals. Signals can be either analog, in which case the signal varies continuously, or digital, where the signal varies according to a series of discrete values. Control engineering applications range from flight systems of commercial airplanes to industrial automation. Beyond major requirements within the electrical engineering (EECS) department, you may consider Florida Gulf Coast University electric power engineering as a complementary elective to your primary course of study.

The Awful Truth, Day 4: Could Be Working Harder

Socar's Silly Photo Diary: Part Four of Six
Here it is, just past tea on a Wednesday, and look at me: still in my nightgown, cluttering up the doorframe. Typical. I haven't even had tea. Cooking, apparently, looked too much like work. I'd order in, but I haven't got any money. I never have any money. There aren't enough jobs for door-loitering hoodlums.
It's a lovely evening. The sun's going down over the city, and there's a floral smell abroad. Maybe I'll get dressed and go for a walk. Maybe I'll not get dressed, and go for a walk anyway. Who would know, with my coat over top?

Please use the form above to request admissions info for Elizabeth City State University.
The average entry-level salary in public accounting is over $60,500 per year, and given five to ten years of job experience, you can expect to earn up to $90,000 annually. Accounting salaries are higher in the private sector as compared to government jobs, and higher again if employed at one of the Big 4 accounting firms such as PricewaterhouseCoopers, Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu, Ernst & Young, and KPMG. Budget analysts prepare budget reports and monitor institutional spending, while cost estimators collect and analyze accounting data. A certified public accountant (CPA) may utilize these reports in preparing summaries for managerial accounting purposes, as well as in tax filings and SEC reporting.
The income statement shows revenues, expenses, gains, and losses, but it does not include cash receipts nor cash disbursements. Revenues from primary activities are often referred to as operating revenues. The primary activities of a business are purchasing merchandise or raw materials and selling products, referred to as sales revenues or simply gross sales. Non-operating revenues, on the other hand, are earnings that fall outside of purchasing and selling goods and services. For example, when a retail business earns interest on some of its idle cash, or sells an commodity investment for a capital gain, these items are reported on the income statement in a separate section. Beyond major requirements within the CPA department, you may consider Siena Heights University academics as a complementary elective to your primary course of study.

I love hosting showers for my dear friends. It brings me so much joy to celebrate the special ladies of my life when they are getting married or having a baby. Over the past few years, I have developed some shower must haves. These make my life so much easier and my parties so much fun!
1. Paper Style is my go-to place for invites! I discovered this online haven last summer when I was searching for invitations at a local paper store. The store was showing me a variety of customization options and I realized http://www.PaperStyle.com was at the top of the screen. Paper Style will work with you to create the most beautiful invitations. Plus, they usually ship same day or next day. The entire site is 20% off until April 8.
Recently, I have ordered this one, this one, this one, and this one.
Hint: Use left over invites to make a banner.
2.Hobby Lobby is the place I have all of my invites framed. The frames are usually 50% off and they only charge around $10 for framing if you only use one mat. Download the Hobby Lobby app for a coupon that will make it even cheaper. How crazy is that? This is a great memento for the guest of honor.
3. My Just Rite Monogram Stamper is a must have! You can customize any monogram on the stamping pad. I use this when making favors and signs for showers. They are hard to find, but eBay and Amazon won't let you down. I picked my ink, thank you stamp and tags up at Hobby Lobby.
4. As we all know, Target is a must when party planning. The new Oh Joy! collection is fantastic. Also, the Spritz Collection has pre-made tissue tassels. Day saved/made. For those wondering, I picked my bar cart up at Ballard Designs.
5. Fresh flowers are another must for Spring showers! I always get mine at Trader Joes. My co-host picked up 5 groups of flowers for under $35.
5. Good eats are always important! My menu always includes cupcakes!
6. Lastly, cute favors are a great way to send your guest on their way.
Enjoy shower planning!

In an interview with French newspaper Le Monde, Chancellor Philip Hammond has said the UK will not reduce taxes or regulations to become a tax haven in a bid to compete with European rivals after Brexit.
Chancellor Philip Hammond suggested earlier this year that Britain may lower corporate tax rates to attract companies and ensure competitiveness of Britain after it leaves the European Union. Chancellor Philip Hammond said that UK is "ready to take whatever steps are necessary to protect this economy from turbulence and when the process is over we are ready to provide support for British businesses as they adjust to life outside the EU."
The Chancellor said that the UK will most likely remain a country with a social, economic and cultural model that is recognisably European. "I often hear it said that the UK is considering participating in unfair competition in regulation and tax. That is neither our plan nor our vision for the future," he said.
"The amount of tax we raise as a percentage of our GDP puts us right in the middle of the pack. We don't want to change even after we've left the EU," he stressed.
The Chancellor was questioned about his earlier statements regarding an option of lowering the UK's corporate tax to stay competitive, but also to use it in UK-EU trade deal negotiations. During the interview, he clarified that there is a possibility that the UK could be forced to change its economic model to regain competitiveness.

Many advances have been made in cataract surgery over the last 30 years. Many years ago, when a patient had cataract surgery, he or she was placed in the hospital for weeks at a time with sandbags on both sides of the head while the eye healed. The patient was essentially immobilized, and the outcome was often dubious. The artist Monet found this process so distasteful that, after his first cataract surgery, he never returned for the surgery on the second eye. Fortunately, his cataracts had a distinct positive influence on his art, which many of us so much appreciate.
In modern day, almost no cataract surgeries are performed in the hospital. Instead, they are done in outpatient or office-based surgery centers, which are more efficient. The recovery time has been drastically reduced to essentially overnight. With modern techniques of small-incision, clear-cornea, no-suture surgery, patients more often than not see better as they walk out of the office surgery suite.
The majority of patients have driving vision the next day. Also, with the small incision, no blood vessels are encountered or cut through. This is why most patients no longer have red eyes after surgery. In fact, unless you know which eye was operated on, it's often hard to tell. Also for patients on Coumadin, Heparin or other blood thinners like Aspirin, it is no longer necessary to have patients discontinue these medications. This avoids the complications of emboli or thrombus formation seen when patients sometimes discontinue these needed meds.
With an office-based surgery center, it is also possible to have better control over all the variables and focus on one specific treatment such as cataracts. This has allowed for the perfection of topical anesthesia (numbing eye drops) to be utilized for cataract removal rather than having to give an injection with a long needle around or behind the eye to numb the eye, as is still practiced by many cataract surgeons today. In addition to the discomfort to the patient from the needle injection, this also eliminates the complications of perforation of the eye, retinal hemorrhage, bruising (black eyes) and optic nerve atrophy that can accompany the injection.
With the small incisions now used by many modern cataract surgeons, an incision of 3mm or less is made, through which the phacoemulsification probe (also called "laser probe") can be inserted to break up the lens into little pieces with ultrasound and then vacuum them out. With this technique, a foldable lens implant can then be injected in the location of the normal crystalline lens. The implant materials and types have also improved significantly, and the most-popular materials include acrylic and silicon for foldable intraocular lens implants. Lens implants are also available in monofocal implants for distance or near as well as in multifocal implants for both. After injecting the lens implant, it self-seals since the 3 mm incision is so small when constructed properly in a stepwise fashion. This avoids scratching and irritation felt by patients in days past and also avoids additional trips to the surgeon's office to have the sutures removed. This was an unpleasant experience often encountered by patients in days past.
Additionally, since the wound is self-sealing and the eye is not anesthetized with needle injections, it is no longer necessary to patch the eye when the patient leaves the office surgical suite. Patients are often amazed at how much better they see, especially colors, even as they are walking out of the room. Today, it is not uncommon for patients who have had cataract surgery to be seeing as good as 20/20.
Cataract surgery has had amazing advances over the last 30 years, and there will be many more advances in the future. Fortunately, in the United States, we are not yet under the constraints of a system of socialized medicine, and most patients still have, for the most part, the ability to continue to have their cataracts removed by virtue of their Medicare or health insurance.

Toward the end of the 1920s, the variety show became a fixture in Spanish culture, growing more daring in the increasingly permissive atmosphere of the Republican period that reigned before the Spanish Civil War. But with the censorship and restraint of dictatorship, the need for a release valve became more pressing; the variety show lived on. Varietés compiles mostly black-and-white photographs taken between the 1940s and 1970s at various popular shows—not always legal ones—offering a pageant of the aesthetics of beautiful dancers, posing for the camera in various states of undress. Above all else, Varietés is a tribute to the cabaret and to its stars, the many people belonging to a world that has become extinct—a world of illusion, magic and fleeting glamour.
