The entire list
Al Baghdadi TV, June 2008
Adnan Oktar: It is illicit for the Muslims not to get united and act together. IT IS OBLIGATORY, ACCORDING TO THE QUR'AN, FOR MUSLIMS TO ACT TOGETHER, AS BROTHERS, AND TO GATHER AROUND A SINGLE LEADER, AGAIN AS BROTHERS.Muslims are not doing that. Not doing that opens the door to all kinds of affliction. Muslims should abide by that obligation. That is why I say there must be a Turkish-Islamic Union under Turkish leadership, under the leadership of the Turkish nation. Every state can remain as a separate nation state. Every state can behave freely within its own borders, but there should be a spiritual leader. That is because the Christians have their leader, the Pope. It is essential that Muslims also have a spiritual leader. If this spiritual union has a leader, ALL THIS CORRUPTION AND STRIFE CAN EASILY COME TO AN END. In that event, if a single hair of any Muslim anywhere in the world is hurt, the incident will come to an immediate end since all Muslims will act in concert. But if there is this fragmentation, if they act according to a policy of divide and swallow up, then it will of course be a simple matter to swallow up the small components. But it is impossible to swallow up the whole block of the Muslim world. Muslims must observe this obligation at once.

RECIPES: Recipe Details
Honey Bourbon BBQ Burger with Crispy Bacon, Kosher Dill Pickle and Fried Onions
Honey Bourbon BBQ Sauce
2 Tbsp. olive oil
1/2 small onion chopped
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 Tbsp. chopped jalapeno
1/4 cup bourbon
2 cups bottled BBQ sauce
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. ground pepper
3 Tbsp. honey
2 Tbsp. stone ground mustard
2 Tbsp. Apple cider vinegar
2 lbs. ground chuck
2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. freshly ground pepper
1 tsp. granulated garlic
1 tsp. granulated onion
12 slices bacon, diced
Vegetable oil for brushing on grill rack
6 slices Colby Cheddar cheese
6 Kaiser rolls, split
1/4 cup Cilantro, chopped
1/2 cup crispy fried onions from the can
1 large Vlasic dill pickle, diced
Prepare a medium-hot fire in a charcoal grill with a cover, or preheat a gas grill to medium-high
For the BBQ sauce, heat the oil in fire proof sauce pan on the grill over medium heat. Saute the onion, garlic and jalapeno for 3-5 minutes. Add the Bourbon and cook for 2-3 minutes, cooking off all of the alcohol. Add the BBQ sauce, salt, pepper, honey, mustard and the apple cider vinegar. Bring to a boil and simmer for 5-7 minutes. Remove from the heat and cover to keep warm.
To make the patties, place the ground chuck in a large mixing bowl and add the salt, pepper, garlic and onion. Combine well, handling the meat as little as possible. Over handling the meat will cause the burgers to be tough. Form 6 patties, cover and refrigerate.
To fry the bacon, heat a large fire proof skillet on the grill over medium heat. Cook the bacon for 6-7 minutes or until the bacon is crispy. Transfer the bacon to a paper towel to drain. Wrap in foil and set aside.
Brush the grill rack with the oil. Place the patties on the rack, cover and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, turning the burgers once. During the last 2 minutes of grilling add the cheese on top of the patty to melt. At the same time, place the buns, cut side down around the outer edges of the grill to toast.
To assemble the burgers, place a patty on each bun bottom. Spoon a generous amount of BBQ sauce on the cheese covered patty followed by equal portions of bacon, cilantro, onions and pickle. Add the bun tops and serve.

On April 20th, 2006, my daughter Lauren Murphy Rheem was born. After a pregnancy of uncertainty, she came into this great world with a smile. Almost immediately, we noticed things about her that were different. We began to learn terms like "tracheomalacia, simian crease, hydroneuphrosis, low tone and developmental delays." Her features were a little bit off. She had trouble breathing and eating and her muscles were so limp that most activities like walking, let alone sitting up, seemed like an impossible dream that may never be fulfilled. As the months went by, our doctors advised us to stay home so that her immune system could develop in the protection of our own house. Most, if not all, of my hobbies were put on the back burner, (golf, dining out, fly fishing and traveling), so I could devote all of my time to my then 4 year old son, who is the best big brother ever, my wonderful wife, who is an angel, and of course my daughter. I have always enjoyed cooking and watching the food network, but it became my outlet quickly. I watched nearly every show and spent many evenings and weekends experimenting in the kitchen trying to replicate dishes from favorite restaurants or parts of the world we have visited.
This burger comes from those many nights of experimenting in the kitchen. This Burger has been tested over and over, sampled by my kids and wife and I can promise you it comes from the heart. By the way, miracles do come true. My daughter, who has been diagnosed with a rare chromosome disorder called Trisomy 9p, just turned three and she took her first steps with that same smile that she brought into this world. I hope that this burger brings a smile to your face!

Ageing playmaker Mark Bresciano has been summoned into the Socceroos squad in the clearest signal yet he wants to extend his career into next year's Asian Cup.
The 34-year-old will replace injured Sydney FC midfielder Terry Antonis in Australia's squad for next month's friendlies against Belgium and Saudi Arabia.
Antonis strained a hamstring in an A-League pre-season match against Newcastle on Wednesday night.
Socceroos coach Ange Postecoglou wanted to use the looming internationals as opportunities for younger players to press their claims for Australia's next tournament - the Asian Cup on home soil next January.
But Antonis' injury prompted Postecoglou to again turn to evergreen Bresciano, who has so far remained non-committal about playing the Asian Cup.
"It is a shame for Terry because we were looking forward to getting him into the Socceroos camp and giving him an opportunity," Postecoglou said in a statement on Friday.
"Mark Bresciano will come into the squad, which certainly adds quality and experience for what will be two tough matches."
Bresciano, a veteran of 77 internationals, will be Australia's most-capped player in the 20-man squad for friendlies against world No.5 Belgium in Liege on September 4 and Saudi Arabia in London four days later.
Fellow 34-year-old Tim Cahill (71 caps) is also in the squad - one of only four players with more than 30 internationals, along with Bresciano, Carl Valeri (50 caps) and captain Mile Jedinak (47 caps).
Bresciano battled back and hip injuries in the World Cup in June - his third consecutive appearance at editions of soccer's showpiece event.
But Bresciano still produced classy cameos which convinced Postecoglou the creative midfielder would be a welcome weapon in the Socceroos' Asian Cup campaign.
"If he makes himself available and his form is good, then he is definitely one that we'll select," Postecoglou said a day after the end of Australia's World Cup in Brazil.

DORAL, Fla. – The revamped Blue Monster, sporting a piranha's mouthful of incisors that clearly was in a devouring mood, had an equally brutish tag-team partner for the second day of the World Golf Championships-Cadillac Championship – an unrelenting, nasty wind that gave no quarter.
Together, the ferocious forces had the field of 68 players biting their tongues, looking to the heavens in disgust and staggering to the finish line Friday at Trump National Doral after wrapping up the suspended first round and playing the second round.
Whether it was a rock-hard green, a tough fairway bunker or an edge off a putting surface that led balls into a water hazard – all pounded by consistent wind gusts that reached 35 mph – the best players in the world could hardly go three holes without suffering some sort of damage.
"It was just brutally difficult," Graeme McDowell said after a 1-under-par 71 got him to even-par.
WGC-Cadillac: Leaderboard
"That's the toughest I've ever played," said Bubba Watson, who shot 72 to get to 1 over. He hit a pitching wedge 200 yards downwind and a 3-iron 170 yards into the wind.
How tough was it?
Watson laid up – on a par-3.
Brandt Snedeker laid up on a par-4 and said there were "six or seven par-5s out there today."
Phil Mickelson made three consecutive double-bogeys.
Tiger Woods has knocked four balls into the water.
Luke Donald made five bogeys, a double-bogey and a triple-bogey en route to an 82.
When the carnage was over, only four players were under par – leaders Patrick Reed (75), Hunter Mahan (74), Matt Kuchar (74) and Dustin Johnson (74).
"It felt like a survival contest and to shoot 2‑over par, I'm actually pretty pleased," Kuchar said.
The field averaged 76.00 and the lowest round was turned in by Jamie Donaldson with a 70. There were 113 balls that ended up in the water – by far a record for one round at Doral.
"That was a tough golf course today," Woods said after he moved up 26 spots with a 73 in the second round and is six shots behind. "I don't think that we expected the golf course to be that hard that fast, but it kept getting quicker and quicker. Some of these pin locations were just – with the wind directions, it was just impossible to get the ball close."
Turns out he didn't have to get it close. Woods made the only birdie on the par-3 fourth hole – with a 92-foot putt. That's the longest putt made on the PGA Tour in the last five seasons. His longest made putt, however, was a 123-footer at Champions Golf Club in the 2001 Tour Championship.
Consider Sergio Garcia first two rounds. He is 7 over on two holes – a 9 on the par-5 10th to start his second round when he hit two balls into the water and a 7 on the par-4 16th in the first round. He is 1 under on the other 34 holes.
"For the most part I've hit the ball well," he said. "It's never a nice way to start a round, a 9. But that can happen without hitting too many bad shots."
The course setup had some players fuming. For instance, the tees were as far back as possible on the 475-yard, par-4 seventh that was playing directly into the wind and the pin was located in the front of the green in a location where the green was only 8 yards wide.
Players complained too many pins were located on the edges of greens and many holes could have been shortened. Watson, for instance, had 201 yards on the par-3 ninth to a pin tucked right near an edge leading to water. He didn't want to mess with that pin or two bunkers near the green, so he purposely hit pitching wedge just short of the green. From there he pitched onto the green and made his putt for par.
"If I would have hit the green it would have been a mistake," Watson said. "Staying short of the green was my best play … On a day like this a lot of players were hitting great shots that were ending up in the water."
Just ask Webb Simpson. While he said he played terribly, he added the course setup was "horrendous."
On Thursday, Simpson hit his second shot into the par-5 8th – everyone in his group said great shot – but the ball landed just to the right of the pin, and then he watched the ball go left, catch a ridge and keep going until it plopped into a water hazard. In the second round, he hit his second shot 15 feet right of the hole, and again watched the ball go left, catch a ridge and then go into the water.
Snedeker had 170 yards to the pin on the seventh hole and decided to lay up with a 6-iron 30 yards short of the green.
"I had three options and two of them were no good," he said. "There was no way I wanted to hit a 4-iron into the wind to a pin when the green was just eight yards wide."
Woods said he grinded the round out on a day he said "anything could happen." He played 26 holes and said his troublesome back acted up and hurt on a few swings.
"I'm a little bit sore right now," he said. "Long day, long day. So it will be nice to get some treatment tonight and be ready for tomorrow."
At least the players can find some solace in the forecast. Winds are supposed to die down to under 10 mph.

It seems to haven't made Acer give up on the high-end smartphone business, as we now witness their second foray with the Acer Stream. What do we expect from this handset? You know that in most cases the second-generation product is more mature than the first attempt. That said, Acer has already spent some time to feel the market and get into its rhythm, so we now feel it is about time for the company to come out with something impressive.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - The Jacksonville Jaguars signed four unrestricted free agents in defensive tackle Roy Miller, running back Justin Forsett, cornerback Alan Ball and cornerback Antwaun Molden, the club announced today.
Forsett, 5-8, 194, has played in 78 games with seven starts since entering the NFL as a seventh-round pick of Seattle in 2008. He spent three games as a rookie with Indianapolis before he was re-signed by the Seahawks the same year. He played in all 16 games for the Houston Texans in 2012. His career totals include 341 rushes for 1,661 yards and eight touchdowns along with 100 receptions for 768 yards and one touchdown. He also sees action as a return specialist and has 46 career punt returns for a 8.1-yard average and 38 kickoff returns for a 23.0-yard average.
A native of Mulberry, Fla., Forsett rushed for 374 yards and 63 carries with one touchdown for the Texans in 2012. He compiled a career-high 619 yards on 114 rushes (5.4 avg.) with four touchdowns in 2009 for Seattle along with a career-best 41 receptions for 350 yards and one score. He played collegiately at California where he ranked third in school history with 3,220 rushing yards and was fourth with 26 career rushing touchdowns. He spent his freshman and sophomore years at Polk High School in Mulberry, Fla., before his family moved to Texas where he attended Grace Prep Academy in Arlington.
Ball, 6-2, 197, is in his sixth NFL season after spending five years (2007-11) with the Dallas Cowboys and the 2012 campaign with the Houston Texans.

New release of the Pixel Bender Toolkit 1.5.1
Last week, we posted a new revision of the Pixel Bender Toolkit (1.5.1) into the downloads area on Adobe labs. This version fixes a couple bugs from the previous release in exporting Pixel Bender Bytecode for Flash. Booleans should now work correctly.
A request we've had a few times on the Pixel Bender forum and over on twitter has been that we post the language reference and developer's guide separate from the Toolkit download itself. Those documents are now available as well on the downloads page.

A554SS1N - Tuesday, February 07, 2006 - linkHi, just wondering when this card will be reviewed, now that 7300 cards are springing up everywhere, surely it's now possible to get hold of one?
As far as I can tell from the very few shoddy reviews other sites have posted, it seems as though the 7300GS will probably be competition to an X600Pro and offer performance inbetween the NV43 6200 and a vanilla 6600, maybe even better in some situations where memory bandwidth isn't the promlem.
I look forward to seeing an Anandtech review!!!! Reply
Morro - Sunday, January 22, 2006 - link
Likewise, the 256MB version of the 7300 will look like it has a 512MB framebuffer to software.
Framebuffer?! Isn't it memory to store complete frames? As I inderstand videocard memory stores textures and data for GPU calculations. Reply

That'd be "fares" wouldn't it? :P
Anywho, as a person who primarily uses his laptop, but would like a cheap-0 gaming computer, this would be ideal for me. Reply
quasarsky - Friday, January 20, 2006 - linkwhats all the fuss about? who cares about hard launches. you can buy what was a paper launch, a x800xt now easy. i'm more concerned about it being availble years later when its in the 200-250 dollar price range. I don't have the big bucks to spend on 1500+ maybe crossfire/sli combos :-D. Reply
Cerb - Wednesday, January 18, 2006 - linkIGP may rule, but there are tons of gamers who don't have big wallets, and will gladly buy something like this. Unlike the GF4MX and FX5x00 (both of which were terrible, with the FX 5200/5300/5500 only being viable when it got to being about $40), I could recommend this (assuming the performance scales with the core speed) with a straight face as being moderately cheap and actually a decent value. While actual value goes up right to the 7800GT, hardly anyone has the money to put down for something like that. Reply
slashbinslashbash - Wednesday, January 18, 2006 - linkOr maybe somebody can post a link to something where I can make quick-and-easy comparisons? The cheapest and seemingly most plentiful budget card at any mainstream store such as Fry's still sadly remains the MX4000, which, if I'm not mistaken, is basically a castrated GeForce2. Truly I weep when I'm at Fry's and I see people spending $50 on these POS cards that my old GF2 GTS would beat. Yes, the 5x00 line sucked too, but I'm pretty sure even a 5200 would beat an MX4000 handily. But I can't see where Anandtech has *ever* benchmarked the MX4000. I just want some benchmarks so that I can have something solid to tell people and convince them to buy a better card. Reply
slashbinslashbash - Saturday, January 21, 2006 - linkAlso, any chance we can get an update on the GPU and CPU cheatsheets? :) Reply
SUOrangeman - Wednesday, January 18, 2006 - linkWho uses VGA anymore? :) Reply
johnsonx - Wednesday, January 18, 2006 - link"Who uses VGA anymore?"
Just about everyone uses the analog output. Just because enthusiasts are all geeked-up about DVI doesn't mean more than a small percent of the actual market uses digital.
That said, I do agree that I'd prefer to see all cards ship with dual-DVI, and 1 DVI-VGA adapter in the box. That would add cost though, which is why this isn't common yet.
ElFenix - Wednesday, January 18, 2006 - linkhow many products have ever shipped worldwide at once? none? how many graphics cards have been available on the day of launch? 2? and those within the last year? you make it sound as if 'hard launches' happen all the time, when they don't. the only thing the push for 'hard launches' is doing is pushing NDA dates back to where the manufacturer thinks they can have stock on shelves the next day. honestly, i'd much rather know a month in advance. now, true vaporware is a problem, but knowing a month in advance is not.
and it's 'cite,' not 'site'.
and hard launch is two words. Reply
DerekWilson - Wednesday, January 18, 2006 - linkNVIDIA products hardlaunched in the past year and a half:
Go 6800 Ultra (yes, it all started with a notebook launch)
GeForce 7800 GTX
GeForce 7800 GT
Go 7800
GeForce 6800 GS
GeForce 7800 GTX 512 was available on launch day in limited quantities and sold out fast ... so we'll count it as half a hard launch ...
... and that's just off the top of my head. There are probably others that slipped my mind. Reply
DerekWilson - Wednesday, January 18, 2006 - linkYes, worldwide hardware launches are more difficult than software launches ... But thanks for sticking up for us :-)
As I said, we don't currently expect worldwide availability. That's just the direction we are headed. Reply
peldor - Thursday, January 19, 2006 - linkI don't think we're headed toward hard launches for everything. Financially it's not that great for the companies. They have to build up supplies for weeks or months, which leaves money tied up in products in a warehouse. Or the manufacturing facilities have to be built to over capacity which makes even less sense. On the high-end, low-volume parts this should be easier, but on the low-end, not so much.
Market timing will continue to be a huge part of the decision to paper launch vs hard launch. Reply
Phiro - Wednesday, January 18, 2006 - linkDiablo: II had a simultaneous worldwide launch.
Star Wars: Episode 3 "Revenge Of The Sith" had a simultaneous worldwide launch.
Fantastic Four had a simultaneous worldwide launch.
Phiro - Wednesday, January 18, 2006 - linkTroy was simultaneous. The Frozen Throne expasion for WC3 was simultaneous. The Pretendo Revolution is planned on being simultaneous.
Bobby Fisher's new chess game was simultaneous.
Red Alert 2 was simultaneous.
Steam releases from Valve are simultaneous.
Apple's Tiger release was simultaneous. Reply
Phiro - Wednesday, January 18, 2006 - linkATI maintains to this day that the 9500 & 9700 release and then three months later the PRO release were both simultaneous worldwide launches. Reply
ViRGE - Wednesday, January 18, 2006 - linkWithout forcing manufacturers to hard launch, they're going to pull shit like the 6800 Ultra Extreme, the X1800XT, and other such launches where they'll announce a product just to steal another company's thunder, and then potentially never release it, fail to release it in decent quantities, or announce a product so far out that we start talking about things that are still a gleam in the eyes of a VHDL. The only solution to this problem is to pressure companies in to hard launching, as they can not commit these abuses if they actually need to have the product ready to go. Gamers deserve real products with real specifications and real benchmarks, so that they know what to buy; soft launches are nothing more than a method of spreading FUD to hurt one's opponent and eventually the gamers themselves. Reply
ElFenix - Wednesday, January 18, 2006 - linkno, that's vaporware. not 'soft launches.' the problem isn't that the product comes out a week or two later in large quantities, it's that it never comes out (ultra extreme) or comes out in such a trickle that it isn't available anywhere unless you're really lucky (xt pe, gtx 512). the beef was and always has been with vaporware. yes, the 'hard launch' is a way to fix it, but it brings its own downside. Reply
Jep4444 - Wednesday, January 18, 2006 - linkdoesnt even solve the problem, the GTX512 was hard launched and its still nearly impossible to find Reply
OrSin - Wednesday, January 18, 2006 - linkOn board video for ATI Xpress and NV 6100's are more theng ood enought for most business applications and family video games (Wheel of fortune type). Thie card has no place. Most real games this card can't do anything.
This quote "Because many game developers write software for the least common denominator" is just not true. Most of the huge selling "real" game of last year, you needed to upgrade your card to play. I say real because I'm not including game like the Sims. But even if include the market for games like the Sims, this card is once again not need when on board video will do. If you not paying $150 and up for card you might was well stick with on board video. Reply
Puddleglum - Wednesday, January 18, 2006 - linkYou're mything with your facts. The quote "Because many game developers write software for the least [slowest] common denomintaor" is indeed true. However, obviously there are some games that simply push the envelope well past the slower cards. You cannot reason that "this card is once again not need when on board video will do," if you're basing that on "Most real games this card can't do anything."
One of the more real games that exists right now is Battlefield 2, which will run on a GeForce FX 5700; EA recommends 256MB of on-card RAM. This card not only beats out a 5700, but, from the article, there may be a 256MB version with the 7300. For < $100.
Upgrading from onboard video will be a common reason for a buyer to look at this card, as this card brings the user into the possibility of playing nearly all games that are out right now. Not only will it play the game, but this card will support the new features, such as rendering DX9 or even HDR, where I don't believe any onboard can touch right now.
There will certainly be customers in line at Fry's with a game in one hand and a 7300 in the other. Reply
highlnder69 - Wednesday, January 18, 2006 - link"Now all we really need is for Intel to care about putting performance and quality into their graphics hardware."

neogodless - Wednesday, January 18, 2006 - linkWhile it is impossible to do a direct match-up between PCI Express cards and AGP, I'd like to see how this competes against previous budget cards, or even previous mainstream cards that can now be bought on a budget. At the very least, I'd like to see this compared to Dell's de facto PCI Express card, the Radeon X300 SE, because we can see what kind of upgrade option this would be for those on a budget.
And... in a perfect world, it'd also be put up against the likes of the previous generation as well, but those are all AGP... oh well! Reply

The men who gather here and the boys who watch them are comfortable.
The rules — such as no loaded guns or muddy boots inside — are few, simple, sensible.
The men might be a little louder than they would be in most places.
Their stories flow freely.
The aroma of corn bread, soup and roast fills the great room.
Outside jambalaya simmers in a black pot, the subject of regular stirring by the cook as others drift by to smell, comment and ask about the recipe's secrets.
Nobody will go hungry tonight.
One group gathers by a wood fire, just close enough to admire it without singeing the front of their britches, and later the backs, as they might on a colder night.
Somehow all the food ends up ready at roughly the same time.
Men and boys heap it on the mismatched plates and gather at tables or find stuffed chairs.
Food becomes the focus of conversation.
After a sampling of desserts, each person washes his own dish in the big, stainless steel sink which may have come out of a defunct restaurant or been donated from some member's wholesale house.
The sound of cards being shuffled draws six or seven guys to a green-topped table. Some have bags of quarters brought for the game or wads of singles picked up at the bank in some city that now seems far away.
They make change for the others during a discussion of the house rules.
Others break into groups inside or drift back to the campfire to discuss politics or the sport of the coming day.
The site is in the Tunica Hills. It's repeated in similar form along winding bayous off Lake Veret, on ridges in the coastal marsh and down any of thousands of gravel roads that cut deep into a woods or swamp and lead temporarily away from the weekdays of life.

Ross performs 'One Man Star Wars Trilogy'
Published: Friday, April 12, 2013 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, April 11, 2013 at 7:43 p.m.
If there is such a thing as an inner child, Charles Ross owes his a whole lot of money.
'One Man Star Wars Trilogy'
What: Performer Charles Ross recreates characters and storylines from the first three "Star Wars" films
When: 7:30 p.m. Tuesday through April 19, 2 and 7:30 p.m. April 20
Where: Squitieri Studio Theatre at the Phillips Center, 3201 Hull Road
Tickets: $15 for Tuesday, $20 for all other performances, $10 all seats for UF students
Info: 392-2787, Ticketmaster.com
Ross is best known as the creator of — and sole actor in — the "One Man Star Wars Trilogy," which will appear at the Squitieri Studio Theatre Tuesday through April 20.
The show isn't hard to explain; it is literally a one-man rendition of the entire "Star Wars" trilogy. Ross voices all the characters, stages all the fight scenes, makes all the sound effects and even sings snippets of the soundtrack.
"It's sort of embracing your inner 8-year-old child," Ross says about the show.
In fact, during conversation Ross often brings up the concepts of an inner child or a reversion to childhood, perhaps with good reason. For more than a decade, he has made his living by being, basically, a glorified version of a child playing make-believe in his room (he also does a one-man "Lord of the Rings" show).
"When you're a kid, you can say you're a fire engine," he says. "You're not going to sound like one or look like one, but that doesn't matter. It's just going with it and going big."
The idea for the show struck Ross while playing Frisbee — yet another extension of the inner child motif.
"I was playing the game with a couple of friends, and it was getting a bit boring, so we decided there had to be a new rule, which was that we had to say a line from 'Star Wars' when we threw the Frisbee and the person had to start saying the next line from the movie before they caught it," he says.
Ross couldn't believe how long he and his friends could keep the game going. They had, it seemed, wasted a whole lot of time watching "Star Wars."
Of course, "waste" is a subjective word. Ross began performing a short version of the show around comedy clubs and smaller venues. As he honed the material, his crowds became bigger and bigger. Soon, he was traveling the world, performing in countries where "Star Wars" was often the only thing he and the audience had in common.
"It's not just in North America; it's worldwide," he says of the movie franchise's mass appeal.
He also learned that geeks have apparently inherited the Earth.
"I learned from watching the crowds and their reactions that people that didn't outwardly seem like total geeks, they were," he said. "It made me think, 'Wow, maybe people are geekier than they let on to be.'"
Of course, one man performing the jobs of dozens of actors, cameramen, special effects artists and musicians means that the performance isn't seamless. In fact, Ross uses that rough-around-the-edges feel to his benefit. He knows what he's good at, and he knows what he isn't good at, and both of those things are just fine with him.
"My Yoda sucks," he says. "I can't do it, but it doesn't really matter. I just go for it."
Whatever he does, it seems to be working. Lucasfilm, the production company of "Star Wars" creator George Lucas, has sanctioned his performance (for which largesse, he pays royalties to Lucasfilm).
When asked to describe what it feels like to have Lucas' implicit blessing, Ross returns yet again to his inner child.
"At the beginning, it was exceptionally surreal," he says. "Over the years, I've gotten used to working with them. If I would have told myself as a kid that I would even meet someone who had a costume that looked like a storm trooper, I would have lost my mind.
"To put myself at the level I am now, I couldn't even talk to that little kid. He'd go insane."

The world's premier open source event listing
Calendar listing for open source conferences, seminars, meetings, webinars, and more
- Should your event be listed? Submit it today.
- Attending an event? Let us know if you'd like to write an event recap for opensource.com
Surprisingly, only few people know about how much big companies like SAP are involved into Open Source (OS). Let's change that! Big companies are often defining software standards but also need to implement existing ones - so there is a big need for OS to drive adoption and be compatible with other products!
Join us for the introductory session of the "OS in Big Companies" meetup series and get a high level introduction on why this is a very valuable but also necessary combination. In this first meetup, we will present SAP's involvement in OS and outline recent projects. Furthermore, you can expect an external OS speaker sharing insights from another big company!
On July 9th, 11am Eastern time, Eoghan Glynn will be leading a hangout in which he'll discuss what's coming in Ceilometer in the Juno release. If the time isn't convenient, you'll be able to watch the archived video at that same location afterwards. Please come to the #rdo-hangout channel on the Freenode IRC network for discussion and questions during the event.
Ceilometer is the metering/monitoring component of OpenStack. You can read more about it at: http://docs.openstack.org/developer/ceilometer/
OKFestival is back! Join us for the world's largest open knowledge event and celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Open Knowledge Foundation.
The Open Knowledge Festival in 2014 will be the biggest open data and open knowledge event the world has ever seen. We've taken a step back, listened to your feedback and talked with you since the first Festival in 2012, and now we're ready to help create the 2014 Open Knowledge Festival with you.
The Open Knowledge Festival is a global, inclusive and participatory event. It is organised by the Open Knowledge Foundation Central and owned by the open knowledge community in the broadest sense.
What do innovative companies have in common?
WSO2, SUSE and Yenlo serve some of the most innovative enterprises around the world, and we've found that these successful businesses have a lot in common. Enterprises able to adopt today's leading technologies and best practices obtain competitive advantage by attracting and serving their customers with greater reach, efficiency, and insight. Characteristic of such thriving enterprises is that they are transforming into a "Connected Business" – employees, partners, customers, and communities working seamlessly together.
Let's make IT part of the business success.
Mobile-first and API-first design, big data analytics, online store experiences, agile development and operations, open source strategy, and IaaS and PaaS cloud-based services represent huge opportunities to transform IT from a cost-sink to the forefront of business success.
Why WSO2, SUSE and Yenlo
WSO2, SUSE and Yenlo offer a complete set of open source tools for building such a connected business. Streamline operations and provide an infrastructure for innovation using SUSE Cloud and SUSE Manager.

Bring new fundamental connection capabilities online with WSO2 API Manager, WSO2 Business Activity Monitor, WSO2 Enterprise Store, WSO2 PaaS, and WSO2 App Factory. Team up with Yenlo's experienced consultants to put these systems in place efficiently.
About this Workshop
We have consolidated some of the best practices shared by these successful innovative organizations and offer a full day workshop packed with demo's and use cases. We know your time is limited therefore the workshop will be split into a morning and afternoon session, where the morning will be predominantly focused on the business side of IT and the afternoon will be about the technical side of the connected business.
After this workshop you will understand this emerging vision of IT, and come away with practical steps to transform your own enterprise into a Connected Business and have the opportunity to discuss your specific IT challenges with the experts.
Target Audience
Everybody is more then welcome, to give you an idea of audience which visited the workshops in the past:
- Enterprise Architects;
- IT managers;
- Java (lead) Developers;
- SOA experts.
This workshop is free of charge and is offered to you by WSO2, SUSE and Yenlo. Travel and stay are at your own expense.
One (1) full day split into a morning and afternoon session.
During this meetup, there will be a discussion around the work being done on this CPI enables customers of any OpenStack cloud to use Cloud Foundry to accelerate development of cloud applications and drive value by working against a common service API. We'll discuss the future of infrastructure automation as it pertains to the adoption of private and public clouds. Attendees will learn what BOSH is not, how it is different from Chef and Puppet, and how automating the integration of PaaS and IaaS, on a technical level, has the potential to drive greater adoption of public and private clouds. We will also illustrate ways to make the PaaS layer install on top of OpenStack without human interaction.
Everything open source (and we mean everything)
From the early days of open source, OSCON has been the only event that covers the open source stack in its entirety. Not just one language, tool, or philosophy, but all of the moving parts, integrated and working together. It's everything you need to know about open source to keep you ahead of the curve.
"At EuroPython, you get to hear talks by open-source project authors that you admire, and then you get to meet them and contribute back. It's a thrilling experience, and a very inspiring one that has greatly affected my work in Python and open source." - Audrey Roy

Hi, i am a beginner at python, and i decided to make an interactive chat within IDLE.
It's pretty simple. You type 0 for a positive answer, 1 for a negative one. I crushed a ton of bugs and it seems to be working perfectly, apart from 1 problem.
You can not answer negatively to the fifth question(When the CPU is talking about homework). I have searched in my coding and found nothing.
The correct code is there, and is in the correct column relative to the input, but the system just seems to disregard it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks -Caperr
Before i forget, here is a download link for my code: http://is.gd/AfUzn5

Want to make sure your 4th of July bash goes off without a hitch? Award-winning chef Michelle Bernstein, who knows a thing or two about cooking for a crowd, has four tips to make entertaining easier.
Michelle Bernstein's Tips for Easy Entertaining:
- Make dishes that sit well. "I want to hang out, too," she says. "Make things in a thoughtful way beforehand, and then prepare fully the day of." For instance, if you're putting together a Greek salad, chop all of the cucumbers, tomatoes and seasonings the night before.
- Let your kids join in on the fun. Give them prepared tasks like setting up the table so they feel like part of the action, too.
- Use the freshest ingredients possible, especially for the finishing touch. If you prepare the salad a day or two ahead, add a pop of flavor with fresh cilantro and citrus. "It will taste like you made it that day," Michelle says.
- Taste everything before you serve it. Seriously, this one is a must. Get approval from yourself for each dish.
Michelle's last tip? Mix up your menu.
"I like to change things up and play in the kitchen," she says.
So skip the burgers this year and bring in some Latin flavors with Michelle's recipe for chorizo tacos:
Michelle Bernstein's Chorizo Tacos
Michelle's Chorizo Tacos Recipe
You can, of course, buy chorizo at the supermarket, but Michelle suggests making your own at home with a stand-mixer and grinding attachment. Using fresh pork, cinnamon, cumin, garlic, salt and pepper, and then feed the meat through the grinder twice (you can also throw some ice cubes in to help the grind). Not a pork fan? Substitute the meat with chicken, scallops, shrimp or beef.
2 pounds pork butt, cut into pieces
2 tablespoons garlic, chopped fine
1/2 cup yellow onion, chopped fine
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 teaspoon chili powder
3/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
4 dried guajillo chilies
4 ancho chilies
4 tablespoons cider vinegar
In a large bowl, mix the pork butt with the garlic, onion, salt, chili powder, smoked paprika, cumin, cinnamon and black pepper. Using your stand mixer with a grinder attachment, grind the pork with spices two times. In a skillet over high heat, toast the dried guajillo and ancho chilies on both sides for a few seconds. Cover the chilies in warm water and let soak for 1 hour. After an hour, remove the chilies from the water, remove the stems and seeds from the chilies. Chop the chilies and place them in a blender with the vinegar; puree until smooth. Combine the spiced pork with the puree. Heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Cook the pork for about 10-12 minutes or until cooked through. Set aside.
Pickled Onions:
1 red onion, thinly sliced
1/4 cup cider vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
Place the onions in a bowl over a larger bowl of ice water. In a small pan, combine the vinegar, sugar, salt and 1/4 cup water and bring to a boil. Pour over the onions and allow to macerate until they cool. Drain and store in the refrigerator for a few days. Before serving add in cilantro.
Avocado Relish:
4 Haas avocados
1 Serrano pepper, chopped fine
Juice of 1 lime
Kosher salt
Mix all ingredients together.
Black Beans:
2 cups dried black beans
8 cups water
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup yellow onions, brunoise
1 cup green bell pepper, brunoise
4 garlic cloves, mashed
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon finely ground black pepper
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon ground cumin
2 bay leaves
1/2 cup dry Spanish sherry
2 tablespoons sherry vinegar
Soak the beans in water overnight in the refrigerator. Drain, place in a large saucepan with fresh water to cover, bring to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer, cook about 1 hour or until tender. Sauté the onions, pepper, garlic in olive oil until soft, add the salt, pepper, oregano, cumin, bay leaves, sherry and sherry vinegar. Bring to a boil, add the beans to the mixture and simmer for about 20 minutes, stirring gently. Pour half of the mixture into a blender and puree then pour back into the beans, taste for seasoning.
To build the tacos:
Top a corn tortilla with a spoonful of black beans. Top the black beans with two spoonfuls of the chorizo filling then top with the onion/cilantro mix and some avocado relish.

Well, at least the G2 might be coming out soon. If the G2 hits soon, it may pull me away from Verizon, who have a stale line of phones. Frankly, disappointing Big Red hasn't shown anything new besides the Ev3 and the "special" Transformer edition Versa.

AVALON PARK, Fla. - Orange County deputies are searching for a group of robbers they say used axes to destroy an Avalon Park jewelry store owner to steal $100,000 worth of jewelry.
Video shows the three culprits breaking into the Avalon Park Jewelers on Avalon Park Bouelvard at 6 a.m. Monday. The owner heard the commotion and saw the thieves in action, deputies said.
In the video, axes are used to smash their way inside the jewelry cases as the men gathered up $100,000 worth of jewelry and stuffed it in pillowcases.
The owner's boyfriend then said he tried to intervene and the thieves turned the ax on him, swinging at him on their way out of the store.
"That's probably one of the most traumatizing things I've ever witnessed. Everybody thinks when they see the tape 'oh my gosh,'" said Tiffany Bayley, the store owner. "When you really walk up to the front door and you see them in there and you see them victimizing what you've worked your entire life for. It's extremely traumatizing."
No injuries were reported.
Bayley said over the weekend a man came into the store and was acting very suspicious, almost casing the store. She said he asked about some of the most expensive jewelry and she's convinced he was one of the men who robbed the store.
Bayley said it is the sixth break-in at her store in the past five years. She said every other time the suspects have left when the alarm went off, except for Monday's incident.

Riverview girls set for return to higher class
After an adventurous two-year stint in Class A, Riverview is set for a return to the Class AA ranks of girls basketball.
The world finally has stopped spinning, but the team isn't too concerned with its new surroundings.
"Actually, we're not concerned about the move at all," Raiders coach Keith Stitt said. "Class AA has more teams and consequently has its share of good and bad teams. You look at the teams we played last year in the North Catholics and Vincentians — Greensburg Central Catholic and those teams are no better than those teams."
Numbers may dictate where the Raiders play, but experience — or lack thereof — could determine if another historic postseason run is possible.
Last year, Riverview (16-9) put together a laundry list of accomplishments, from its first WPIAL semifinal appearance since 1980, to a rare state playoff appearance.
The Raiders will have to replace three senior starters, including Valley News Dispatch Player of the Year Mary Andrejko, who averaged 21.6 points and scored 1,344 points in her career.
"We still have a chance to be a pretty good team," Stitt said. "We'll just have to see how the young ones come along. The bottom line is that we're inexperienced."
True, but not completely.
Senior point guard Ashley Bruni has started since the midway point of her freshman year, and senior 5-10 forward Rene Ault also returns as a third-year starter.
Call that battle-tested duo the foundation.
"We expect them to have big years for us," Stitt said. "But I can see us starting two sophomores and a freshman with them."
The sophomores are 5-foot-9 forward Leah Sero and 5-10 guard-forward Bree Patsey, who is coming off a knee injury that cost her much of last season.
The freshman Stitt mentioned could become a household name in the program. Sadie Buchser has received high praise from coaches and teammates. A 5-7 shooting guard, Buchser should make an immediate impact.
"She's going to be a dynamite player," Stitt said. "She has the potential to be as good or better than some of the best girls we've had come through here."
Another important player is guard Erin Lauff, another senior leader.
"If things work out, we'll have a lot of depth," Stitt said. "We're hoping to go seven or eight deep."
Key reserves look to be senior Kim Botta and 5-10 junior forward Madison Long. A foreign-exchange student, Isabella Gudmundsdottir, also could contribute. The 5-9 senior forward is from Iceland. She first attended Allderdice before moving to Oakmont and transferring to Riverview.
Now in Section 3-AA, the Raiders will face talented teams in Greensburg Central Catholic and Jeannette, along with Shady Side Academy, Springdale and South Allegheny.

Wintertime in the Valley is one of the most enjoyable times of the year. There is a reason why the snowbirds flock to Scottsdale, and it may have something to do with the warm temps. Unfortunately, dressing the part seems to be a challenge for many, but thanks to Scottsdale Quarter's Marketing Director Alison Goodman, we have great tips for looking your best during the winter months. Alison's sense of style is on point and for the next three weeks she will take us to three different store's located at my favorite mall to give us examples of outfits that you can use as inspiration to spruce up your wardrobe.
First stop on our shopping spree: Free People!
|Layering is key during the Arizona winter months and a casual ensemble like this one from Free People is an absolute perfect choice. Flared denim is back in a big way, which coincides perfectly with the '70s fashion influence we saw all over the fall runways. Here, a cozy tribal print cardigan tops a thin, gauzy tee, making the outfit cool-weather appropriate while providing the option to strip off the top layer should the day warm up. With a '70s-esque floppy hat to top it all off, it's the perfect look to channel your inner hippie chic fashionista.
|As everyone knows, fashion is cyclical and this season, it's all about the 90's influences and bringing back the "grunge" look in a new way. Here, we have a pretty, girlie baby doll dress in pale pink with embedded embroidery. Knee socks not only make this dressy frock appropriate for day, but are a great alternative to tights in order to keep legs warm during the chilly mornings and evenings. Throw a gray leather bomber jacket over this dress to complete the look – Beverly Hills 90210's Donna Martin would be proud.
|We've been seeing printed pants since the spring, and they aren't going anywhere this winter. Patterned pants are the perfect way to spice up your wardrobe and are most appropriate for the fashion risk-takers out there — these pants are definite attention-getters. What's most eye-catching about this ensemble is the subtle way different prints have been combined, a trend that is huge going into the New Year. The key to combining different patterns is staying within the same color palette. In this case, a classic black-and-white color scheme keeps the outfit in check.

The major use of such machines is in connection with a business, involving short-distance deliveries of goods or taxi services, usually in inner-city areas where movements of motor vehicles are restricted either by law or simply by volume of traffic! Beware that workbikes are a bit like recumbents and folders: enthusiasts tend to go a bit OTT, so take their eulogies with a pinch of salt.
For occasional transport of larger loads by a private individual, it has to be said that a cycle trailer generally makes most sense. But if you have a frequent need to carry more than will fit into panniers, you might nevertheless consider making a workbike your daily workhorse. Some of them really aren't much more cumbersome unloaded than a standard bike. They're big and expensive, but if you have the storage space and the money there's no harm in adding one to your existing stable – especially if it lets you get rid of the car!
The easiest and cheapest workbike option is to extend the back of an existing bike to increase the wheelbase and make a kind of long rear carrier onto which you can hang all manner of bags and containers, pannier-style, or even mount a passenger seat.
It makes an interesting d.i.y. welding project, or you can buy a ready-made conversion kit called an Xtracycle. The conversion isn't much more unwieldy than a regular bicycle, goes through the same gaps in traffic (better than most trailers in that regard) and could be considered as an everyday runabout even if you don't need its extra carrying capacity every day.
Purpose-made delivery bicycles begin with the archetypal "butchers bike". The big front basket may not hold much more in total than you can cram into four panniers on a touring bike, but it'll take bigger single items, whilst smaller packets are easier to get at. This kind of bike is often used for internal transport on industrial sites and large numbers are employed by postal services around the world.
Each country seems to have its own favourite design, some with a smaller wheel and bigger basket in front, others with rear panniers too. All incorporate that essential feature of a delivery bicycle: a sturdy propstand. Much bigger loads can be carried on two wheels if they're further apart, with a low-load platform or container inserted either behind the rider like the Burrows 8Freight illustrated above, or in front as per the traditional Danish "Long-John".
For even larger and heavier loads you'll need a tricycle. The simplest arrangement is the traditional "stop me and buy one" ice-cream cart: the back half of a bicycle hinged to a big two-wheeled box. Christiana of Denmark still makes that kind of trike, updated with a steering damper to suppress the main disadvantage of cart-type steering: a tendency to veer off-course whenever one of the front wheels meets an obstruction.
A more sophisticated variation on that theme fixes the box and pivots the front wheels like on a motorcar. That's nicer to steer, at the expense of a narrower box or wider gateways.
Although "tadpoles" (see ourtricycles [2] page) appear to be more popular, for many purposes it's just as convenient to carry the load atop the wide rear axle of a "delta" format trike. Most pedicabs (pedal-powered taxis, of which Cycles Maximusprovide a good example) are made this way and it follows that's also an excellent way to transport two small children, for example the Pashley Picaback.
Finally we also have load-carrying quadricycles. Indeed the only good reason to add the complexities of four wheels (suspension becomes essential) to a pedal-powered vehicle is because you simply must carry more than can be loaded onto three. Another reason is you want to pedal in a recumbent position.
Generally it makes more sense to sit upright on a workbike: the option of standing on the pedals helps get the load moving and you'll never go fast enough anyway for wind resistance to matter very much. And besides: a recumbent human occupies a lot of potential cargo space! So if that's how you prefer to pedal, a workquad may be the way to go.

What You Need to Know
Bash Brothers
The Tuesday Takeaway
If the awards voting for the 2013 season were held today, Justin Upton might take home the hardware in unanimous fashion. With nine homers already under his belt, the right fielder took full advantage of the thin air at Coors Field on Tuesday, smacking a round tripper in both games to extend his major-league lead. Meanwhile, although the elder B.J. Upton is batting a far more pedestrian .160/.229/.320, he had a hand in enhancing the significance of his brother's fifth-inning blast.
The Upton siblings previously made history on April 6, when B.J. delivered a game-tying home run leading off the ninth inning and Justin sent the Turner Field fans home happy with a walk-off shot minutes later. On that night, they became the first pair of brothers in major-league history to turn a defeat into a victory in that thrilling style. Last night, they joined Lloyd Waner and Paul Waner as the second brotherly duo to produce back-to-back jacks—and since Justin's solo shot to right-center field came on the first offering he saw from Jon Garland, the Uptons did their yardwork on consecutive pitches.
Those two taters pushed the Braves' lead in the nightcap to 5-2, and a four-run ninth inning brought it to 10-2, the game's final score. Coupled with a 4-3 victory in the matinee, the sweep improved Atlanta's road record to 9-3; no other National League team has yet earned more than five victories on the road without losing at least six along the way.
Freddie Freeman came off the disabled list on Tuesday, but Jason Heyward—who underwent an appendectomy on Monday—took his place on it. Yet, amid the latest dose of adversity, the Braves just kept on rolling. They'll go for their fourth sweep of the season behind Tim Hudson, who has allowed only four home runs in 64 1/3 innings at Coors Field, this afternoon (3:10 p.m. ET).
Matchup of the Day
Morrow fared relatively well against the Orioles last year, holding them to nine earned runs on 19 hits while amassing a 25-to-7 K:BB over 24 innings, but he was unable to contain Adam Jones, who went 6-for-11 with two home runs in those four games. If Morrow is to turn around his 2013 season tonight, he'll need to find an answer for Baltimore's center fielder, who went 1-for-4 with two strikeouts on Tuesday but carries a robust .354/.376/.549 triple-slash line into this evening's contest.
Among hitters who have faced Morrow at least 25 times in their careers, Jones' 1.183 OPS stands head and shoulders above the rest, with his teammate, Nick Markakis, ranking second at 839. Jones is 11-for-28 lifetimes versus Morrow with a double and three homers, though he has struck out six times and never walked.
All three of the big flies came on poorly placed fastballs, grooved in locations where Jones—a very good hard-stuff hitter—is at his most dangerous. The first, which came on the second pitch of Jones' third at-bat on August 6, 2008, was the fate of a four-seamer that could scarcely have been closer to the heart of the zone. The second, four head-to-head plate appearances later, on April 13, 2012, came on a belt-high offering that immediately followed a backed-up slider. And the third, in their most recent meeting, on September 5, 2012, was a fastball right down Broadway, a spot where Jones' career TAv versus heaters is nearly .400.
This one isn't rocket science: If Morrow is to right his ship tonight, the key will be better command of his fastball, which has had its familiar 94-mph bite, but has also been the culprit on all four of the gopher balls he has served up this year. Given their history, Morrow's ability to retire Jones could serve as a useful barometer of his progress (12:35 p.m. ET).

Braves went 1-3 in their series with Pittsburgh. They lost the last three (the weekend bit), which made it seem like a sweep.

Verlander is not pitching tonight; Scherzer is.

And, for that matter, neither is Luis Mendoza. It will be Wade Davis.

This report achieves what many have claimed impossible: it calculates the tax lost to the UK Government from tax avoidance and from tax planning by the very wealthy. Tax avoidance is the process of getting round taxation law without actually breaking it. Tax planning is the use of the opportunities Parliament has provided to citizens to reduce their tax rate.
The result of the calculations set out in this report reveal that the amount of tax lost to avoidance and planning is a number bigger than most might ever imagine. It is estimated here that £25 billion annually is lost from tax avoidance. This is made up of £13 billion p.a. from tax avoidance by individuals and £12 billion p.a. from the 700 largest corporations.
Estimating these figures involved an original detailed analysis of several sets of Government data and further analysis of 344 sets of accounts published by the UK's fifty largest companies covering a seven-year period.
It is estimated that an additional £8 billion p.a. is lost to public funds from tax planning by the wealthiest members of the UK community, i.e. those earning over £100,000 p.a.
The result of this is that the UK tax system is not nearly as progressive as Parliament intended and as social justice requires. In addition, public funds are more scarce than they may otherwise be and certainly more scarce than Parliament would have intended when agreeing tax rates. It is notable that the Government is currently seeking to rein in the annual growth in public spending by 30 billion pounds through an 'efficiency programme'. Given this figure is not far in excess of the current income lost to tax avoidance and is actually less than that lost to avoidance and planning combined, this report raises serious questions about the price now being paid by public services as a result of this activity.
In the case of individuals, tax avoidance usually takes the following forms:
- shifting income from the person who should really pay tax to someone else;
- moving transactions out of the UK
- changing the nature of transactions, in particular so that income is subject to Capital Gains Tax rather than income tax
- abusing the law on limited companies.
Companies have more opportunity than individuals to avoid and plan for tax. This is, in particular, because they operate internationally, opening avenues for tax planning and avoidance between territories that no individual can exploit. This is why the rate of tax lost to corporate tax planning and avoidance is found to be greater as a proportion of tax actually paid than that for individuals. This report bases its findings on new and original research of the fifty largest companies in the UK and shows that:
- The fifty largest companies almost always pay 5% less tax on average than they declare in their accounts.
- The average tax rate paid by these companies fell by more than 0.5% a year over a seven-year period to 2006, even though the UK tax rate for these companies was constant throughout that time – as a result, the de facto corporation tax rate for UK companies in 2006 was 22.5% when the actual rate agreed by Parliament was 30%.
- This means that when the new higher corporation tax rate for smaller companies reaches 22% by 2011 (as announced in the 2007 Budget), small companies are likely to be paying a higher proportion of tax on their profits than the fifty largest companies on current trends.
- If this de facto tax rate was the official tax rate it would place the UK 16th in a table of corporation tax rates for the EU 25 with France the highest and Malta the lowest – it would also mean that the UK had the lowest corporation tax rate of the Western European economies with the exception of Ireland.
- By the end of 2006, the cumulative tax savings recorded in the accounts of the fifty largest companies was £47 billion; this actually exceeded the total tax paid by all companies in 2006 by some £2 billion.
These figures strongly suggest that the regular complaints from the business community about the burden of tax they endure in the UK should be treated with a high degree of scepticism.
The facts relating to tax avoidance and tax planning make it clear that this deliberate behaviour is imposing a substantial cost on UK society, and on those taxpayers who seek to comply with the spirit and letter of UK tax law. Knowing this is not enough though. This report offers a series of practical solutions to address the problems identified.
Fundamentally, the current Government approach of plugging loopholes in tax legislation is inadequate. The Government must assert its right to collect and expend taxation revenues in pursuit of its democratic mandate. This has been lacking and it is now time for the Government to change the terms of this debate if it is to secure the full tax revenue that Parliament expects it to secure when tax rates and arrangements are agreed by MPs and Lords.
To this end, the following actions are suggested as a spur to public debate on how the Government and Parliament should react:
- introduce a new law called a 'general anti-avoidance principle' that treats all tax avoidance as unacceptable and therefore open to challenge.
- stopping the current round of HM Revenue & Customs staff cuts so that adequate resources are available to tackle the issues this report raises.
- abolishing the domicile rule.
- abolishing unnecessary tax reliefs enjoyed primarily by the wealthiest individuals.
- making it much harder to abuse Capital Gains Tax by shifting the ownership of assets prior to their sale.
- applying income tax to all capital gains on assets held for less than a year.
- reforming the tax relief for charities to stop abuse, increase the income of charities and to cut their administrative burden.
- introducing an additional tax charge on investment income above a set limit so that it is taxed at rates similar to those applied to earned income when National Insurance is taken into account.
- the introduction of a minimum rate of tax to be paid on the income of those earning more than £100,000 a year to ensure that they do not unduly benefit from tax reliefs and allowances that society cannot afford to provide to them.
- engage more actively internationally in tackling abuse promoted through tax havens.
- redesign the way small limited companies work to reduce the risk of tax abuse.
- increase cooperation on taxation internationally to ensure companies are held to account for where and how they operate and are required to act as good corporate citizens, including in the payment of their dues to society as a whole.
These proposals could at least halve the cost of tax avoidance and tax planning to the ordinary people of the UK. And as the report shows, the potential benefits of that are significant:
- Half of the total amount lost to tax avoidance could raise the level at which the higher rate tax rate is paid by £10,000, offering significant financial relief to those on middle incomes.
- Alternatively, the same amount would pay for a 20% increase in the state pension or could reduce the basic rate of income tax by 3p in the pound or could build an extra fifty hospitals.
- As little as one quarter of the total tax income lost to avoidance activities would be enough to provide five-and-a-half million public service staff, who are currently facing the prospect of a real terms pay cut, with a pay settlement equivalent to the rise in average earnings across the economy in 2007.
