MIPCOM 2012: Canada Shows Cannes-Do Attitude to Global Co-Productions on the Croissette
Not since the D-Day landing in 1944 has a French beach seen such a Canadian invasion, this time to find the next "The Tudors" or "The Borgias" multinational drama.
CANNES - Not since the D-Day landing in 1944 has a French beach seen such a Canadian invasion to reinforce a growing presence on the world stage.
The Croissette came alive Monday with Canadian distributors, actors, bureaucrats and keynote speakers spotlighting arenas like international co-productions, scripted dramas, animation, documentaries and digital media where Canada is making a mark internationally.
With their hands firmly planted in the co-production tool kit, the Canadians are marching in Cannes to find foreign partners and financing for their TV shows, scripted and unscripted.
"A co-production with Canada can be a gateway to other partners and the North American market," Carole Brabant, executive director of Telefilm Canada, the Canadian government's film financier, said of the promise of collaborating with Canadians.
Telefilm Canada and the Canadian Media Fund, the main source of subsidies for Canadian TV producers looking to get their programming into the world market, are co-sponsoring the Canada focus at MIPCOM to take advantage of U.S., U.K. and other foreign producers looking to share the risk and cost of TV shows.
That's especially so as austerity measures in Europe to deal with mounting government debt has EU film and TV producers increasingly looking across the Atlantic to find new partners and markets.
"So there's an opportunity, given the changes in the co-production environment, to put Canada forward," Creighton observed.
Canada as the country of honor at MIPCOM this week also aims to let Canadians know heavy annual taxpayer investment in local film and TV product is paying off as it finds it way into the world market.
After all, on the map, Cannes isn't hard to find for ordinary Canadians.
They just know the French seaside town as the high altar of cinema.
So Canada's powwow this week in Cannes aims to underline how Canada enjoys a growing international stature and rise as an intermediary between U.S., European and other world media producers partnering on global dramas.
"It's great for Canada to have a higher profile," said John Weber, president of indie producer Take 5 Productions, which is currently co-producing with Ireland's Octagon Films and Morgan O'Sullivan's World 2000 Entertainment the European costume drama Vikings for History in the U.S.
Of course, there's nothing new in this.
Canadians, burdened by a tiny home market, have long seen their fate tied to Hollywood and the world market.
So they've long been permanent fixtures at international TV markets, in the same numbers as this week, with Ottawa and its proxies urging a foreign presence.
But the Canadian industry taking a bow at MIPCOM this week is showing yet again a peculiar resilience.
Despite dwindling government subsidies at home and the uncertainty and digital challenge engulfing the global TV business, these are glory years for the Canadians, given the increasing number of homegrown dramas like Flashpoint, Saving Hope, Rookie Blue and L.A. Complex that have filled U.S. network slots since the 2008 Hollywood writers strike.
"The only way to attract private investment is to think internationally and think co-productions and to think having our creative industry tell stories to the world," Michael Hennessy, president and CEO of the Canadian Media Production Association, representing Canadian indie producers, argued.
That international focus has Canadian mini-studios like Lionsgate, Cineflix Media and Entertainment One expanding in Los Angeles and London to make copycat shows that work in the U.S. and British markets.
This week, they and other global producer and distribution players like Cookie Jar, Tricon and Shaftesbury Films have booths nodding at one other in the Palais, as they look for rest-of-the-world markets after selling their best shows into the U.S. and other major territories from offices in Toronto and London.
And the irony is it's bureaucrats in the bowels of Ottawa and Montreal that are leading the Canadian march into Cannes, orchestrating indie distributors as they hawk their wares in cramped booths and chockablock displays in the Palais, or stage red carpet showcases of homegrown talent.
Canadian producer White Pine Pictures has brought David Sutcliffe (Private Practice, Gilmore Girls) and Stefanie von Pfetten (NCIS, BattlestarGalactica) to Cannes to help the homegrown police procedural Cracked follow earlier Canadian cop dramas like Rookie Blue and Flashpoint into the world market.
"The German, French and Italian broadcasters get a sense of how good Stefanie and David can be selling the show to their viewers," Cracked executive producer Peter Raymont said as Beta Film shops the CBC drama internationally, and Carrie Stein reps the series stateside.

The 20th Century Chevy Car Club will host its 35th annual Car Fest and Cruiz-In this weekend at Eastside Park, rain or shine.
Event co-chair Mike McLemore said club members invite community residents to come out and see some cars, have a nice time in the park and support a good cause. He said money raised at the Car Fest is used to help local families and support the city's parks.
"The Car Fest and Cruiz-In are limited to '95 and older vehicles," he continued, adding people bring their cars from a four- or five-state area when the weather is nice. "Weather is a big factor."
On the third weekend of September since its inception, McLemore said inclement weather rarely puts a damper on the event.
Dave Fry, current president of the 43-year-old, 62-member 20th Century Chevy Car Club, estimates 400 cars will participate in the Cruiz-In and close to 700 will be on the park grounds Sunday.
"You'll see everything from an original classic car up to an altered car — what's called a street rod — street machines with custom paint jobs and custom interiors," McLemore said.
The festivities kick off with the Cruiz-In Saturday. Gates open at 2 p.m. for registration, which lasts until 5 p.m., and the Cruiz-In follows at 5:30 p.m. It's $15 for car owners who want to participate, whether they're in just the Cruiz-In, just the show or both.
"It's a savings if you do both," Fry said.
Chili is provided for car owners during registration, and McLemore said the public is welcome to come on out to the park to look at the cars during registration or wait and watch them in the Cruiz-In.
The Cruiz-In route begins at Eastside Park and goes north on N.E. 21st St. and Sugarland Road. It jogs over to Wagner Avenue and south to Vista Lane, west on Vista to E. 12th Street, where it goes south to Bedford Road. From there, the cars will take E. 11th Street to E. Walnut Street and turn west, following it to N.E. Third Street. There, they'll head north again to Viola Avenue, then west to Biddinger Lane, where they'll travel south to Apraw Road. At Front Street, the drivers will turn south and continue to W. Walnut Street, where they'll go west to W. 10th Street. When they reach Main Street, they'll head east until they reach E. 11th Street, where they'll turn north, drive to E. Walnut Street and take it back to Eastside Park.
The entire loop takes about an hour and a half, bringing everyone back to the park around 7 p.m.
"The band American Pie will play at 7:30 on the bandstand," Fry said. "It's free for anybody to come."
The car club will have a concession stand between the restrooms and the Community Building at the park and will sell popcorn, nachos and cheese, coney dogs and other items.
"The club's concession stand is open Saturday night for anyone who wants to eat cheap," Fry said.
Other food vendors will be on hand Sunday, at the edge of the upper lake dam, and will sell barbecue, hamburgers, cheeseburgers, brats, fish, fried pickles and a selection of other foods.
"Gosh, you name it, it'll be out there," Fry said.
On Sunday, gates open at 8 a.m. for Car Fest registration, which will last until noon. Judging will begin at 1 p.m., and trophy presentation will be around 4 p.m. on the bandstand — earlier if judging is completed sooner.
"We'll be giving away 100 top awards and 17 special awards," Fry said. "All of our 100 awards are sponsored by local merchants in Daviess, Martin and Pike counties."
He said the special award winners will receive handmade wooden plaques that have been professionally painted.
"They're pretty unique because of the way they're done," McLemore said.
During the judging, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., people can bid on silent auction items in the Community Building.
"There are probably 120 or so items to bid on," Fry said. "There are gift certificates, T-shirts, a transmission, ladies and mens apparel, golf kits — a lot of stuff for kids to adults."
Participants and the public also can browse booths where swap-meet vendors will sell everything from automotive items to ladies items.
In addition, the Sixth Annual Cacklefest will take place during the Car Fest. Fry and McLemore explained spectators will be able to see altered cars, front-end dragsters and door-slammer cars. There also will be a nitro-burning funny car — a 1978 Lincoln Continental Mark V owned by Bill Spore of Princeton and raced all over the United States — that makes an unusual sound when started.
"Those cars will fire up at 12:15 and 3:15 by boat ramp," Fry said, adding fans will be able to get autographs from the drivers, and there will be 200 posters of the funny car given away.
There's no charge for the public to attend the Car Fest or Cruiz-In, and free shuttle service is provided from the Nasco and former K-Mart parking lots since parking will not be available at Eastside Park.
Fry said the city's miniature train will transport attendees from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday free of charge.

MOORE — For one day care, the weeks following the May 20 tornado — and the "miracle" that no one in the building was injured — have been about nonstop rebuilding efforts and returning to normalcy.
Moore day care plans to reopen just weeks after tornado
Agapeland Learning Center, which services families from both Briarwood and Plaza Towers elementary schools, was in the middle of the path of destruction.
Arriving immediately after the tornado, day care Director Memory Taylor said she was amazed that every person in the center was accounted for, and barely a scratch was found.
"I looked up and I saw that 7-Eleven was completely gone and I thought 'If it took that, there's no way — how could this place even be standing?' And it was," she said.
Taylor estimates 36 children, teachers and parents were in the building during the storm.
Now in the process of getting back in business, Taylor said she hopes to have the new location, an Oklahoma Community Church building, open by Monday.
The Save the Children Fund provided the day care with a $20,000 grant and brought a team to Moore to get the new building ready for children.
The grant will go to replace toys and furniture, much of which was ruined in the storm.
Facebook also has played a major part in the rejuvenation of the business. Andrea Baird's daughter survived the storm at the day care, and now is using the social networking site to give back.
Baird created the group "Aid for the Agapeland Heroes" to raise money and supplies for the teachers at the center. More than 1,000 people, from Florida, Tennessee and further, have joined the group.

Woodstock was a monumental event in music history. I wish I could've been there to experience the festivities myself. But alas, since time travel is not yet a possibility, I guess I'll have to find a different way to spread my love. In honor of Woodstock's 44th anniversary (the original Woodstock was held August 15th - August 18th in 1969), I have decided to make a playlist.
Here are the five songs I most would've liked to hear at Woodstock:
Janis Joplin, the poster girl for Woodstock, the first queen of rock-and-roll. I recently saw a documentary about her final hours. The thing that really stuck out for me was how lonely she was her entire life. She was supposedly a kind person, but always felt like an outcast and never found the love she was looking for. Well, rock-n-roll loves you, baby. You'll always have a piece of our heart.
Here's how I know if a dance song is good: if I hear it and don't say to myself, "This would be a good song to dance to if it was remixed into a house track." Never once have I said that to myself while listening to Sly & The Family Stone. I've always been too busy moving my feet, telling all the squares to go home.
I'm a lucky broad. I seriously have some of the most amazing friends in the world. I can only imagine how phenomenal it would've been to chill with them on a grassy hill as we rocked out with our Joe Cocker out. Chilling with them on a sofa watching reruns of The Wonder Years comes in at a close second.
The Who made this song when the Baby Boomers were basically still babies. I know there's not much my generation has in common with the Boomers, because we Millennials are selfish, narcissistic, and self-entitled. But since this is my blog not yours, I'm the best, and I do what I want, I'm including this song in my playlist. If you have a problem with that, you can file a complaint with the Department of Nobody Cares.
In case you forgot we're talking about me, Jimi Hendrix wrote this song to remind you.

Got this game for my daughter's 5th birthday! Mostly got it cause it was a half off deal and it had the minions on it. Was worried a monopoly game would be too hard for her BUT it has been a Great game! She LOVES it!! It really has improved her counting and it has helped her to understand about money more. We have even let her be the banker! It's simple enough for her but way better than those kiddie games like candy land for us grown ups. The little minion men are very cute and made of a rubber like squinkies so that means keep away from the cat or we will find beheaded minions. I would really recommend this game for those kids who aren't a toddler anymore and is ready to leave those baby games behind.

This game looked cute on the box and online. It is very poorly made. The spinner should be fun, but it is a giant frustration. You need to spin it like a top. Each time we did get it to spin,it would end up in the same spot in the corner of the board. We also got the same number on it each time. The game is extremely simple. It did not even last 15 minutes. The money was very poorly made too. It was off cut and there was only 1 type of bill. The minions are teeny tiny, less than an inch big. We love the minions but really disliked this game. We ended up having to return this game. Very disappointing. I do not think it would hold the interest of anyone over 8.

About Me Educator
Great product! Bought two for the cousins for Xmas and they've already started playing! Cute little minions. So why 4 stars? It's not like the traditional monopoly wheere you get a dice and it's a flat game board. So the way it's designed, I don't see it lasting longer than the traditional way (which is key when it comes for kids). Basically, not as sturdy!
Very good for young kids

This is a great game for the 5-9 year old age group. Very cute. My complaint about this is that it is made VERY cheap. It is very expensive for the quality. The board game is very flimsy. This game is not worth more than $10.00.

My 3-and-a-half year old son saw the Minion Monopoly and had to have it. It's been a lot of fun playing with him and his 5-year-old sister. They caught on to the rules fast and mostly observe them. The game takes a lot less time to complete compared to the regular editions. The tokens are a bit too small and I don't care for the board set-up and the spinner in lieu of a die. The scenes and locations from the movies make a great experience for the little ones. Nobody ever wants the pyramid because there is a picture of Vector on it and Vector is a meanie. Everyone loves stealing the Moon. :)

Brit pack can recreate history by adapting to adopted homeland
Sunday 13 April 2008
Where Colin Welland, of Chariots of Fire fame, clutched an Oscar and declared "The British are coming", Sandy Lyle took out his bow of burning gold and said much the same thing with his seven-iron from the bunker at the 18th. Two decades ago Lyle won the Masters and for four years the green jacket ceremony was a strictly British tailoring operation with Nick Faldo (twice) and Ian Woosnam following the Scot's lead.
Masters 2008 diary: Sandy snubbed by European Tour
Saturday 12 April 2008
Poor old Sandy Lyle. On the day the 50-year-old was supposed to be celebrating the 20th anniversary of Britain's first ever Masters victory, he found himself being dumped on from a great height by the very Tour he helped to establish. Yesterday, the news was leaked that Jose Maria Olazabal had been offered the European captaincy for the 2010 Ryder Cup in Wales. After Seve Ballesteros, Bernhard Langer, Ian Woosnam and now Nick Faldo, Lyle was the only member of the so-called "Big Five" not to have held the honour. He is now resigned to the fact that he never will. "This is my last chance," he said recently. There is always the chance, of course, that Olazabal will defer the opportunity but with all his current injury problems that seems doubtful. Sources at Celtic Manor expressed surprise at the revelation, although that had nothing to do with Olazabal's captaincy credentials. The theory went that Olazabal would be saved for an American renewal as he has all the statesmanlike qualities required for the "away" fixture. That would have left the way clear for Lyle, who won the 1985 Open and the 1988 Masters, to take charge in Newport. Nice theory, nasty reality. There was widespread sympathy for the Scotsman here yesterday. "It's going to be such a shame if Sandy doesn't get the opportunity to have the captaincy," said Woosnam. "I know he deserves it. Look what he's done. He's the first Briton to win the Masters, and the first to win the Open since Tony Jacklin. He's done a lot for golf in Britain and Europe. He deserves to be captain."

Float plane crash leaves 2 dead, 4 injured near Tofino, B.C.
Two people have died and four others were injured after a float plane crashed in a remote area on the west coast of Vancouver Island, officials say.
"Of the six adults on board — one pilot and five passengers — two were found deceased, and four suffered varying degrees of injury," said Cpl. Darren Lagan of Island District RCMP.
The four survivors have been transported to hospitals on Vancouver Island, he added.
RCMP will not identify anyone involved in the crash pending notification of the families.
The plane, a DeHavilland Beaver that belongs to Air Nootka, was headed to Gold River in Vancouver Island's interior.
Five hikers chartered the plane, which took off Friday morning around 10:20 a.m. PT near Hesquiat Lake, north of Tofino.
Officials said the pilot sent out a distress call three minutes after takeoff.
Dianne Ignace, who lives in remote Hesquiat Village, said she saw three Air Nootka planes fly into Hesquiat Lake Friday morning, but only two flew out.
Ignace described poor weather conditions for flying.
"Our ceiling was so low, we couldn't see the mountains for most of the day," she said. "The visibility is very bad and it was southeast winds today."
Ignace said she didn't realize there was a problem until she heard over her VHF radio that one of the planes was in distress.
"It said 'Mayday. Downed aircraft,'" she told CBC News.
Ignace said locals often meet hikers who pass through the area and that she had met the five passengers who were on board the downed plane.
Lt. Greg Menzies, spokesman for the Joint Rescue Co-ordination Centre, said rescue crews picked up a beacon signal from the aircraft for a short time before it was lost.
Crews were able to narrow the search to 54 square kilometres, but it took them more than five hours to locate the wreckage, five kilometres from Hesquiat Lake.
"Because of the thick forest, because of the low ceiling, it does obviously take more time," Menzies said.
The B.C. Coroners Service and the Transportation Safety Board are investigating the crash.

Property revaluation deadline
Land Information Minister Maurice Williamson today announced the Government has approved an Order in Council allowing the Waimakariri District Council to extend its deadline for general property revaluations until 1 December 2014.
"Under the Order, the council will have an additional two years to revalue properties in its catchment area for rating purposes," Mr Williamson says.
The revaluation was originally scheduled to be completed by 1 July 2011, but was extended until December this year due to the Canterbury earthquakes.
"However, due to the number of properties that remain damaged it is not feasible to complete the revaluation by December".
"To enable Waimakariri District Council to best use its resources for earthquake recovery, the Government has agreed to the council's proposal to extend the general revaluation for a further two years", Mr Williamson says.
"I am confident this deferral is in the best interests of property owners and ratepayers".
Property values in Waimakariri have stayed relatively constant since the last general revaluation.

Rock gods resurrected: Thin Lizzy's guitarist Scott Gorham is on a mission to keep best friend Phil Lynott's memory alive
Scott Gorham has vivid memories of his first meeting with Phil Lynott. It came about when the American guitarist went to an audition for a new group in London in 1974.
The omens weren't good. The money - £30 a week - was decent, but Gorham hated the name, Thin Lizzy. As a Californian rocker, he was also nervous about the notion of 'an Irish rock band'. Then he met the swashbuckling Lynott, the group's singer and bassist, and changed his mind.
'The whole thing was surreal,' he recalls. 'I was this white kid from suburban Glendale, California, and here was this black guy with a thick Irish accent welcoming me into his rehearsal room.
Live and Dangerous: Scott Gorham with Phil Lynott in their heyday
'At first, I was rocked back on my heels. There were two other guys there, a guitarist and a drummer,
but they didn't give anything away. It was shaping up as an intimidating session.
'But then we started playing and I knew immediately I wanted to be in this group. Phil was clearly the leader, the go-to guy. He was also the most magnetic character I'd ever met.
'He had an aura, and people were drawn towards him. It wasn't just a rock star and his ego, either. He could be that way, but he was also incredibly generous. He didn't want to be the star. He thought that Thin Lizzy would be stronger if everyone shared the spotlight.'
Gorham passed the audition with flying colours and the 'classic' Thin Lizzy line-up was born. With drummer Brian Downey and guitarist Brian Robertson also on board, they were ready to rock and roll.
Nearing the end: Gorham (right) with John Sykes who was a later addition
Over the next nine years, they toured relentlessly and conquered the charts with arena-pleasing anthems such as The Boys Are Back In Town, Don't Believe A Word and Jailbreak. With Lynott a genuine star, they were one of the definitive bands of their time.
But fame came at a cost, and the hard-living quartet were dogged by the drug problems that claimed Lynott, who died from heart failure, aged just 36, in January 1986.
Looking back, Gorham doesn't try to gloss over the tragic consequences of the band's drug abuse, although he prefers to dwell on the happier times and a musical legacy that still lingers on.
Now, at 57, a charming elder statesman rather than a bad boy of rock, he has just overseen the release of an album of recently discovered live tapes, Still Dangerous.
The record captures the group in their prime, in Philadelphia in 1977, and it sounds as energetic now as it did back then. Dubliner Lynott had initially put the band together in 1970, a three-piece version that had a minor hit with Whiskey In The Jar, but it was the late Seventies' incarnation that made the greatest impact.
Legend: Scott Gorham at the Classic Rock Roll of Honour Awards in 2006
While Lynott was always the focal point - a leather-clad rapscallion whose songs combined Celtic folklore with bluecollar rock - the lead guitars of Gorham and Robertson, a fiery Scot, became their hallmark.
'Phil always said we were an Irish band, as that's where his roots were,' says Gorham, who still lives in London with his wife.
'But I added my American influences and Brian Robertson came from the British school of blues guitar. My playing was smooth and Californian. Brian was more of a Spitfire. We were like oil and water. It shouldn't have worked, but it did.'
Many of Gorham's fondest memories of Lynott come from their time together on the road. At their early shows, he had to be forced into the limelight.
'Before our first gig, there had been no talk about what we were going to do onstage. But the minute we started playing, Phil and Brian just exploded.
'Their legs were pumping and they were pulling all sorts of shapes with their guitars. I cowered back into my amp. I just wasn't that kind of performer.
'Then, in the middle of the fourth song, Phil just stopped. He walked over, grabbed me by the collar and dragged me to the front of the stage.
'He told me: "Right, don't f***ing move from there!" And then it all suddenly became clear. In Lizzy, you didn't just play. You put on a darn good show.'
As the band's fame grew, so did their reputation for offstage excess. 'It got way of control,' admits Gorham. 'We did everything to such a ludicrous degree that I find it hard to think about now.
'We always took the gigs seriously. But, as soon as we came offstage, anything else was fair game. The other day, my nephew asked me how many women I'd slept with. And I didn't know.'
According to Gorham, drugs became a major problem for the band from 1979 onwards, when both he and Lynott began using heroin.
Today, the guitarist (who has been clean since 1985) finds it hard to fathom why something so lethal seemed so attractive. 'As to why we did it, I can't give you a simple answer.
Some bands take drugs to get high. Others do it to beat the boredom. With a lot of songwriters, it's a search for inspiration.
Tragic end: Phil Lynott wanted to get Thin Lizzy back together before he died
'But people soon became concerned, especially about Phil. Our management would sneak into our hotel rooms and flush the drugs down the toilet. Phil didn't want to die. He loved life. He just went way over the top in the way he lived it.'
Thin Lizzy finally split in 1983, after a series of lineup changes, but Gorham and Lynott remained close friends until to the singer's death three years later.
'I last saw him just weeks before he died,' says Scott.
'He played me some new songs and said he wanted to get Lizzy back together and go out on the road again. He promised me he was going to clean himself up, and I left his house relatively sure that he was going to get himself together.
'Three weeks later, he was dead. My wife answered the phone and screamed: "Oh my God, oh no", and I knew right away that Phil had gone. I sat on the stairs and started crying. I hadn't lost a bass player and a singer. I'd lost my best friend.'
Working with Phil Lynott's estate - the singer's wife Caroline and daughters Sarah and Cathleen - plus other former band members, Gorham is putting his energies into keeping the Lizzy legacy alive.
He recently unearthed 'a mountain' of unheard material. And while there will undoubtedly be future releases, he insists that quality control will always be the key.
'In the late Seventies, we established ourselves as a bonafide, kick-ass rock band, and I hope that people will remember us for that, not just for the drugs and the partying.
'We influenced the next wave of bands, and that should always be a major part of this job. You want kids to pick up guitars and keep this whole thing called rock 'n' roll going.'

"The missing subject has been identified as Treen – last seen on the same day as the illegal attempt to misappropriate gate travellers' belongings and the subsequent misadventure."
"Then either his mental capacity is affected – due to said misadventure – or he is a gifted liar."
They both turn to face me with a questioning look but I am holding on to my jaw for the moment. I am burning on the inside, my skin crawls, and really, the main reason for not responding is because when I speak I sound like a trapped rat. I want to express my horror with a full-throated roar and turn this infernal place inside out, except I cannot. It has been two weeks since I learned of my circumstances and each day I expect to wake up and find it has all been a twisted nightmare. Except it has been anything but that. The fact that I can move, breath, think, offers a verisimilitude to the entire situation, even if my mind questions the plausibility on a daily and sometimes more frequent basis.

The only long term option is to make tax / benefits less complex
We have lots of politically parties that complete with each other over how "fair" they can make the tax and benefit system. However every time the system is make more "fair" for a group of people. It is make more complex for everyone.
So to begin with, let's change the "age related personal allowances", so it is not reduced when a person's income increases. This will mean that
- People that don't need it get it – bad / less fair
- Lots of people will no longer have to fill in a tax form, as there tax code will no longer depend on their income.
Remove the "age related personal allowances" and put up the "state pension"
- Bad – there will be winners and losers
- Bad – the losers will get a lot more "news time" then the winners
- Good – no one will have to claim the "age related personal allowances" anymore
- Good – no one will have to understand the "age related personal allowances" anymore
- Bad – less tax inspectors and accountants will be needed
Why do we always blame HMRC when it is us (the British voters) and the people we choose to put into power that makes that system over complex in the first place? PS It would help if HMRC had a lot better admin systems that were more joined up across government. E.g. the government knows a persons age, what bank account they have, etc, so why do we need to repeat the some information on our tax form? However the fact that the tax system is so complex that even old people with a low income have to fill in a tax form is the root problem.
The problem is the PAYE system
I work for TOPS. The majority of problems I see relate to cases where a person has multiple pensions and/or part-time earnings. The system of allocating codes to each one has massive scope to get into a mess. Most older people (and most younger ones too - age is probably not a factor here) cannot understand it. Couple this with failure by HMRC to give MCA automatically (already commented on in the last few weeks) and lack of HMRC resources to sort out problems until pushed and it is not surprising that many older people are over-paying tax.
What to do about it? I don't know. In the age of computerisation it would be nice to think that information could be correlated automatically and refunds issued but I suspect that I am being naive!
I rang HMRC recently about a TOPS client with 4 pensions. I had the P60s for all 4. Their system did not even recognise the PAYE reference for one of them (which I subsequently checked was correct)! I hope this is just a teething problem with their new joined up system.
Totally agree!
PAYE was designed on the assumption you had one employment then one pension. Probably quite reasonable in 1994 but life has moved on since then. It is therefore centred on employers not people and deals very poorly with those who have more than one PAYE source.
What is needed (and I think HMRC have been trying to achieve this but it has been postponed) is a person centred system where all info relating to one NINO is located around that person and NINO.
Meanwhile it seems to be older people with a couple of pensions or a part time job who carry the brunt of a system which is totally out of kilter with the modern world.
New PAYE system
Your suggestion, Anon is spot on, and this is what the new PAYE system launched this year is intended to do - be a system which shows a "whole individual, multiple employers/pensions" view and not a "whole employer, multiple employees" view. There are a number of teething problmes with the new system but I have no doubt that this is the way to go forward, and when it is finally really spinning it will be a relief to many accountants.

(PRWEB) September 06, 2012
Great Britain today claimed its first-ever Paralympic Sailing medals, with a gold in the Single-Person Keelboat (2.4mR) and bronze in Two-Person Keelboat (SKUD18).
No racing was possible on the final day of the London 2012 Paralympic regatta because winds sufficient for fair competition failed to materialise.
With the final 11th race of the series abandoned, the gold, silver and bronze medals were awarded on the basis of the overall standings established yesterday after the first 10 races were complete.
That meant Helena Lucas won 2.4mR gold, ahead of German Heiko Kroger and Thierry Schmitter of the Netherlands on silver and bronze.
Australians Daniel Fitzgibbon and Liesl Tesch had already secured SKUD18 gold, with silver going to Jen French and JP Creignou of the USA and Briton's Alexandra Rickham and Niki Birrell on bronze.
The Netherlands trio of Udo Hessels, Marcel van de Veen and Mischa Rossen had also already secured gold in the Three-Person Keelboat (Sonar) before the final race had to be cancelled.
Silver went to Germans Jens Kroker, Siegmund Mainka and Robert Prem, with Norway's Aleksander Wang-Hansen, Marie Solberg and Per Eugen Kristiansen.
For further information please contact the London 2012 Press Office.

What is the best moving company for a move from Brooklyn to Washington, DC?
Search | SEARCH |
What is the best moving company for a move from Brooklyn to Washington, DC?I have contacted over 30 moving companies that I found using Yelp and Craig's List, both in NYC and DC. Quotes have ranged from $600-2,800. My last move was a nightmare even though it was just from the Bronx to Brooklyn, so I want to make sure this move goes as smoothly as possible since it's long distance. so I'm exhausting all my sources and asking for any and all recommendations for moving companies.

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker
can't tell ya who is the best, i can tell you that most seem to be the same, you might want to consider the trucks they use and consider that one might take the bad roads better then the others so less things may break? also keep in mind that your move is the only job they can do that day and its going to be a long one...

For Portugal, the news just gets worse and worse. Markets had been circling the debt-ridden, growth-resistant country since last summer, pushing up borrowing costs in anticipation of a default. Last month, the center-left government of Prime Minister José Sócrates collapsed after it failed to secure parliamentary backing for a raft of spending cuts and tax hikes. Last week, after long denying it needed any help, Sócrates' outgoing administration admitted defeat and sought a European Union bailout. And at a meeting of E.U. finance ministers on Friday and Saturday, Portugal was told: you can have your bailout an estimated €80 billion ($116 billion) loan but only if you agree to cuts that go beyond those that just brought down your government.
Portugal is now the third country in the euro zone to seek help after last year's multi-billion-euro rescue packages for Greece and Ireland from the E.U. and the International Monetary Fund (IMF). E.U. Economic and Financial Affairs Commissioner Olli Rehn said on Friday that the deal would be a "fully-fledged, most likely three-year program" with "strict conditionality." He said the austerity measures recently rejected by the Portuguese parliament were a "starting point" for an "ambitious privatization program" that would curb centralized wage setting, sell state assets like banks and utilities, and reform labor markets to make it easier to hire and fire.
The aim, Rehn said, was to reach a "cross-party" agreement, involving Portugal's outgoing government and opposition, thus heading off concerns about the legitimacy of any program signed off by a caretaker government. Such an accord would be concluded by mid-May, so it could then be put into place by the government that takes over after Portugal's June 5 elections. That might be an unpalatable prospect for the country's testy politicians, especially since it involves the IMF, whose austerity demands during the 1980s still scar the country's collective memory. But the main parties have at least already agreed on some key issues, like slashing the budget deficit from the current 8.6% of gross domestic product to 4.2% in 2012 and 2% in 2013.
Yet in the longer term, there are deeper questions about whether the bailout coupled with the new austerity program can turn Portugal around. Certainly, Portugal needs the loan to manage its debts, which have already reached more than 90% of GDP. But Portugal's problem is less about liquidity than long-term solvency. Its growth rate has been below 1% a year for the past decade, and the economy is predicted to shrink this year by 1%. Its economy depends heavily on traditional craft industries, and has failed to adapt to changing times. A lack of competitiveness is likely to ensure the debt burden remains high.
A wider issue is whether Portugal's bailout can contain the crisis that has dogged the euro zone for over a year. Attention has turned to Spain, where unemployment is over 20% and growing, and whose regional banks, the cajas, were badly exposed by the country's collapsed property market. Prime Minister José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero who announced on April 2 that he is not standing for re-election has taken steps to shore up public finances and open up the economy, recently launching major labor, pension and banking reforms. The markets seem to have given Spain the benefit of the doubt, prompting Spanish finance minister, Elena Salgado, to say on April 7 that she "absolutely ruled out" risk of contagion.
But if Spain is immune, others are not. Greece, the first euro-zone country to receive a bailout, may need saving again. Its debts are so massive that they may never be paid back. Many analysts say that even with a second bailout, Greece could still default. Elsewhere, Ireland's newly elected government says it plans to "renegotiate" the rescue deal reached last November, a move that could mean defaulting on holders of bank debts.
"The contagion risks have not been eradicated," says Silvio Peruzzo, a London-based analyst at the Royal Bank of Scotland. "Countries with high private and sovereign debt will remain at the mercy of further loss in market confidence."
Recently, a British newspaper reported that Portugal's star soccer player, Cristiano Ronaldo, would be sold to Spain for €160 million ($231 million) to pay off some of the national debt. It was an April Fools' Day prank but Portugal and other vulnerable euro-zone countries may have to consider all sorts of radical remedies if they are ever to recover properly from this crisis.

Some try to lead us to believe that Foley's perversion is the result of being a Republican. Isn't just as logical to assume it is because of his latent/ blatent homosexuality? His eye color? His race? Whether he is right handed, left handed, or ambidexterous (sp?)?
Of course not. Foley is a perv because he CHOSE to be a perv. Remember back to 1983, I believe, Foley is not the first time this has happened. If memory serves there was also a number of interns who made accusations against folks on the hill.
These accusations against Foley are about a year old. This is not new and breaking news. And yet it turns up close to election time. So close that Foley's name can not be removed from the ballot. Does this sound like people who actually care about a page or more like someone who only used it to advance another parties agenda and chance for office?
Foley may be a perv but what do you call someone who allows it to go uninvestigated for so long and only lets it out for personal or political gain?

I was wondering if anyone had any good examples of the use of Photoshop/Painter's pen tools (or vector imports from illustrator) in concept design and other traditionally raster illustrations.
I've just been learning about it and I'd imagine the clean, mathematical curves might be useful for things like vehicular/architectural designs.
(Work with both clean edged shapes but with brush strokes as well.)
Using vector edges would seem to me to be faster for more rendered illustrations, but I can't say I've really seen it used before (at least not obviously anyway).
So if anyone could post inspirational raster work with vector elements it would be appreciated! I'm interested to see some.

bresaola and fennel salad
TOTAL TIME: 0 minutes
MAKES: 4 servings
Bresaola is a salted, air-dried and aged beef. If you can't find it, you can substitute prosciutto. This tasty dish is perfect for entertaining because the salad can be made ahead of time (up to one day in advance). Just wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate. The vinaigrette can also be made ahead, but don't dress the dish until right before serving.
- 1 carrot
- 8 ounces bresaola, sliced paper-thin
- 1 tablespoon curly parsley leaves for garnish
- ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
- Juice of 1 lemon
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
- 1 teaspoon chopped basil
- 1 teaspoon chopped Italian parsley
- 1 teaspoon chopped rosemary
Using a mandoline, thinly shave the fennel bulb and carrot. Arrange the bresaola, fennel and carrot shavings decoratively in a serving dish. Garnish with the curly parsley. In a small bowl, whisk the olive oil with the lemon juice until emulsified, and season with salt and pepper. Stir in the herbs, and serve the vinaigrette alongside the salad.
