Criminal code for tax offences
It is all too easy to overstep the mark in a legal tax arrangement
In the law regarding fiscal offences, the boundaries between legal tax shelter and illegal tax evasion are sometimes fluid and can often be virtually undetectable to the layperson.
Before you make your tax arrangements we are happy to advise you to what extent they comply with the limits of permissible tax minimisation. In the event of a tax investigation, however, we will provide you with a suitably qualified criminal defence lawyer who will provide effective support for you in the event of searches, preliminary proceedings and a trial.
The issue of self-disclosure of tax liabilities ("Selbstanzeige") and, in particular, failed self-disclosure ("fehlgeschlagene Selbstanzeige") have been common knowledge and highly controversial for a number of months, and not just in expert circles. Voluntary self-disclosure to avoid penalty ("strafbefreiende Selbstanzeige") is more than an additional tax return: the avoidance of prosecution has absolute priority. This can only be achieved by means of complete and accurate self-disclosure.
Our services at a glance:
- Preventative advice to avoid situations liable to result in criminal prosecution
- Representation in any measures taken by the investigative authorities (e.g. house search, confiscation etc.)
- Representation vis-à-vis the investigation service into suspected tax offences, the tax office authority in charge of fines, and the public prosecutor's office
- Representation in legal proceedings in any criminal court, all the way to the Federal Court of Justice
- Advice in the event of self-disclosure ("Selbstanzeige")

Gordon and Makiko have leaped through bounds to ensure our installations are done to the highest quality and in a timely manner. With us being a large format printer that serves luxury brands, it is imperative to work with installation companies such as Image 360 who go above and beyond to get a job done. They have always been flexible with our everchanging needs and willing to put in the work for any project we send their way. We would highly recommend using Image 360's installation services for any project you have in mind.
5 Star Rating!
I give Image360 the highest possible recommendation due to their terrific customer service and their lightning-fast response. I found them through a Facebook page, and went to them for a very small vinyl sticker project. I was concerned I would not get their attention because my job was probably way smaller than their usual jobs, but boy was I wrong. They treated me as if I was one of their best customers, even though it was my first time working with them. Both telephone and email communication was clear and prompt. They executed my small project in one day and the results were exactly as expected. It's refreshing to encounter a local business that puts customer service first. Go see them!
5 Star Rating!
I appreciate our long standing working relationship with Image360. Gordon and Makiko are always friendly and helpful and provide amazing turnaround on the items we request to keep our business at Round Rock Toyota looking 100%. Always great to be able to do business locally!
5 Star Rating!
When Habitat needed to replace one of its construction trailers due to theft, Gordon Stehr with Image360 - Round Rock stepped in to donate the print and install of a new wrap AND secured in-kind donations of the vinyl from Avery Dennison and GSG - Graphic Solutions Group. Thank you Gordon!!

Top 5 Aircraft when intially learning to fly and hour building towards your commercial license:
Book an Airplane Trial Flight Today:
When starting to fly the usual thought is that you don't have much choice on what to fly. This is true to an extent as most flying schools/clubs have a very limited selection but this doesn't mean that you must settle for only those aircraft.
As I have progressed through my flying career I have obtained over 30 different type ratings and at any point I'll be current on at least 6 different aircraft which is really difficult but the ultimate question is, "Has this made you a better pilot?"
The simple answer is YES.
The types of aircraft I will be covering are all based on my personal experience and what I think will develop your skills as a pilot.
The Top 5 Aircraft are:
– Cessna 150
– Cessna 172
– Cessna 182
– Piper Cherokee/Warrior/Archer
– Piper Arrow
To round this article off I will cover Flight Simulators and how they can help you train to become a pilot and make you a better pilot.
Cessna 150:
The Cessna 150 is an amazing little aircraft. It is as old as the hills but it is built as strong as an ox and it is a beautiful aircraft when learning to fly. The reasons I have picked the Cessna 150 over the Cessna 152 are:
– The C150 has 40 degrees of flaps which makes for amazing short field performance. This can also lead to violent tip-stalling qualities which sounds negative but as an experienced instructor, a student really needs to be able to handle extreme situations in order to come
out of flight school as a competent and safe pilot.
-It only has 100hp which forces the student to learn how to deal with a low powered aircraft and truly fly the plane where he/she wants needs to. Contrary to popular belief, flying an aircraft with low hp is harder then flying a high performance aircraft.
The Cessna 150 has lost popularity as a training aircraft sadly due to the dwindling numbers of these aircraft available in an airworthy condition. The C150 is also, at the end of the day, a Cessna aircraft and anything with that prestigious name is expensive to maintain.
If you find find a flight school still maintaining and operating one of these beautiful aircraft, you can be sure to pick up a few "hands-on" flying tips from the instructors who fly
Cessna 172:
The next step up, which allows you the luxury of more performance and space but is still easy to fly while you are learning, is the Cessna 172. At first sight the Cessna 172 is definitely a pretty aircraft with nice curvy lines that seem to harmoniously come together at the front end, cowling the 160HP engine.
Pictured here is This Side Up Aviation's Founding Director, Lawrence Robinson, after completing his Commercial license for the 2nd time. The first time was in South Africa on a Piper Aztec. In general the controls and feel of the aircraft are like a refined version of the Cessna 150 and it almost feels like you are flying royalty. The Cessna 172 is the princess of the skies and gracefully does any maneuver you want her to with very subtle and slight inputs. That doesn't meant that the Cessna 172 is a slouch. If you bring her back to Va you can throw her around the sky and she will gracefully accept any punishment you dish out with no consequence.
The best part of the Cessna 172 is that you will learn to trust and rely on this aircraft. Even when you are nervous, stressed out and making mistakes, especially during your flight test, she will take one for the team and bring it back for you.
Cessna 182:
If the C172 is the princess of the skies, the Cessna 182 is the Queen.
Pictured here is the Cessna 182 having landed on a beach near the Northern Peninsula of New Zealand. This trip was with a student who wanted to learn how to land on a beach.
This brings me to my next point, Utility.
The Cessna 182 has to be one of the best all-round machines to fly. It has a grunty 240HP 6 cylinder engine (This one does) and can cruise at 130knts quite easily. As a long distance cross country machine the Cessna 182 is fantastic and even with four people on board, everyone has plenty of space to move around and it feels like an old-school Cadillac.
The Cessna 182 also has an amazing wing design and flap setup which makes it ideal for short field work. The Cessna 182 gets in and out of bush strips with no issues whatsoever even with it's hefty payload.
The Cessna 182 comprises power, utility and complexity that makes it a beautiful plane to step up to from the Cessna 172.
Piper Cherokee/Warrior/Archer:
The Piper PA28 series are amazing aircraft when learning to fly. The most noticeable difference between these aircraft and the classic Cessna aircraft is their low wing design.
The Piper Warrior, pictured here, offers you a new perspective on flying as the visibility is completely different and it has a very stable and on-rails feel. Learning to fly one of these 160hp trainers is a very gratifying and enjoyable experience. This is definitely one of the most forgiving aircraft and even if you slow it up too much on landing, end up slamming it on the ground she will be fine and bring you back safely.
One of the other defining aspects of this PA28 series is the fuel valve. It is either selected to the left or right tank. I cannot stress how important this is as a student. It builds in the habit of checking your fuel status, pressure and tank selection which the Cessna's don't really require. Piper's PA28 series have a very commercial feel to them and this carries across to their multi-engine aircraft too. This will be of huge benefit especially when hunting for that first job that most likely has a Seneca, Cherokee 6 or something similar.
The PA28 series are really well rounded aircraft and very popular in flight schools and commercial operations. The PA28 is definitely a must have in your pilot logbook.
Piper Arrow:
We have already touched on the Piper PA28 series but because the Piper Arrow is a retractable undercarriage, Constant speed Prop and complex variant, I believe it requires it's own section.
The Piper Arrow has quite a few restrictions due to it's lack of power which is exactly why it is a great platform to learn on. It has complex controls which will give you a great introduction when moving onto bigger aircraft such as twin-engine aircraft.
The Piper Arrow is quite a heavy aircraft and will definitely require a calculation before you take off from a hot and high airfield or you will end up in a sticky situation. This reason alone probably the best reason to learn to fly the Piper Arrow because it will teach you responsibility and respect when using any aircraft. When you eventually become a commercial pilot and eventually move into the airlines, this attitude and habit of checking everything will be invaluable to you and will keep you flying safely all the way into retirement.
It's amazing how your initial training will affect your entire career so it is very import to get a good base of experience.
Flight Simulator:
This may not seen like an aircraft but Flight Simulators are one of the best way to learn to fly; or at least learn the basics of flight. This isn't even the best part of Flight Simulators, they can be used as procedural study tools and guess what… They can cost $0 per hour because you can fly it at home!
Flight Simulators come in all shapes and forms and create no risk for yourself or an aircraft. There are of course different variants:
Home Simulators – Microsoft Flight Simulator X, X-Plane, Prepar3D & Aerofly
Commercial Simulators – FRASCA & X-Plane Commercial
Full Motion – These are useless used by Airlines and are definitely not in the budget for most home users or flight students.
One of the most popular ways to experience flight without actually flying is through Virtual Reality. This allows people the experience of "Real Flight" whenever they want even when there are thunderstorms outside. The only downside to VR is having to payout for a very good system to run it but the HUGE upside is that over a few years you will have saved money compared to flying a real aircraft.

Interesting line of thought came up tonight in the comments 99TelepodProblems' story about the disappointing box office of Tom Cruise's latest genre opus relative to The Fault in Our Stars and Maleficent.
At one point, Nivenus made a couple of points that struck me as really salient (I'm using bold text for emphasis):
1) Like you hypothesize, Tom Cruise isn't the big star he used to be. This isn't entirely his fault - I think the age of the actor-led blockbuster is largely over anyway... However, it's not as if Cruise is completely unbankable - Ghost Protocol did pretty well and I'm betting Mission Impossible 5 will also do good business when it comes out which brings me to the second point...
2) The Wall Street Journal is correct that audiences are more interested in franchises than individual movies. Honestly, this isn't a huge surprise to me. Just look at Pacific Rim - not only did it land pretty softly but the first things the fans wanted to know when they'd finished watching it was whether there'd be another. People aren't looking for new, original content. They're looking for franchises about the things they like.
Today, virtually every major summer movie is part of some sort of franchise, whether it's a sequel to an existing film, a remake or reboot of a long-running character or concept, or an extension of some existing brand or cross-platform concept. As Nivenus observes, tepid responses to non-franchise movies, especially action-based ones, have become the standard: John Carter flopped, Pacific Rim failed to connect with post-Independence Day audiences, at least in North America, and Edge of Tomorrow looks to be an early summer casualty. In a rather sudden development, Warner Bros. decided they weren't taking any chances with Jupiter Ascending and kicked it back to next February. In the meantime, the summer already belongs to the big franchises: Godzilla (reboot/remake), Amazing Spider-Man 2 (reboot/sequel), and X-Men: Days of Future Past (sequel/retroboot). Just ahead are Transformers: Age of Extinction (sequel minus the "star" of the previous films), Dawn of the Planet of The Apes (sequel/reboot/maybe even a prequel to the series that started with the 1968 original), and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (just a regular old reboot, consigned to the late summer dump heap). Even "sequels" aren't quite what they used to be, and as Nivenus points out, the presence of big name stars doesn't make much difference in influencing moviegoers' decisions, at least between May and September.
If you were, like me, born in the early '70s, then movie franchises — or what used to charmingly be referred to as "series" — are nothing new. Your earliest movie memories are likely occupied not only by Star Wars, Alien, and Raiders of the Lost Ark, which would grow into long-running sagas in their own right, but also sequels to popular movies like Jaws, Rocky, and the latest Roger Moore Bond flick. You may also have memories of watching the Planet of the Apes saga and the "Man With No Name" Trilogy (which wasn't really a trilogy, but oh well) on your parents' living room Trinitron. We tend to think of the proliferation of sequels and spinoffs as a recent development, but as the AV Club pointed out last year in its 1983 pop culture retrospective, in that year alone there were over a dozen sequels in all — some very big, like Return of the Jedi, and some not so much, like Smokey and the Bandit 3 and Curse of the Pink Panther.
Of course, sequels and movie series have been around for ages. The Bond series is over fifty years old, and before that, there were movie series about Tarzan, the Dead End Kids, Charlie Chan, and Andy Hardy. There was even an early cross-platform style franchise, in the case of Universal's monster series. And those are just the English-language examples: In Japan, there are characters like Zaitoichi and Godzilla with dozens of movies to their name.
And sequels haven't always been dominant, either. Even in the '80s and '90s, which we tend to think of as the era of the modern blockbuster and the sequel, the biggest, most popular movies tended to be original films. (By "original," I mean not based on an existing TV show, movie, or video game, though in some cases they may be based on novels or real events.) The Big Chill, Terms of Endearment, Ghostbusters, Romancing The Stone, Back to the Future, Top Gun, Who Framed Roger Rabbit?, Ghost, Dances With Wolves, Silence of the Lambs, Basic Instinct, Jurassic Park, Speed, Forrest Gump, Toy Story, Apollo 13, Titanic, As Good As It Gets, Saving Private Ryan, There's Something About Mary, The Matrix, American Beauty... Even the most blatantly escapist popcorn flicks, like Independence Day, Twister, The Rock, and Armageddon, were original concepts in the sense that they didn't originate in some other visual medium. Silence and Jurassic Park had, of course, started out as bestselling novels, but that was nothing new — so had the early '70s blockbuster trifecta of The Godfather, The Exorcist, and Jaws, which helped transform the '60s generation of filmmakers into mainstream successes.
So what happened? There were a lot of factors in the '80s and '90s — globalization, the rising costs of movies and movie stars, as well as A-list directors, the consolidation of movie studios and media companies into vertical entities — that I really can't go into great detail discussing here. The end result was that audiences' relationships with movies began to change, and where before viewers might have decided to go see a movie because it had Julia Roberts or Tom Hanks in it, they instead based their decision on universes and brands.
First of all, the "series" evolved into the franchise. People tend to forget that the whole notion of referring to movies as "franchises," like fast food joints or sports teams, started out as a joke. For decades, sequels were seen as cheap and exploitative — in the days before video, the studios would try to crank them out as quickly and inexpensively as possible to capitalize on the success of the original. But with the emergence of Godfather Part II and Empire Strikes Back, sequels evolved into a way of telling complex stories with lots of characters that couldn't be contained in a single two or even three-hour movie. There were still lots of quickie sequels, both cheap and expensive — it's really hard to say that the Die Hard or Lethal Weapon movies constitute "sagas" — but by the late '90s and early 2000s the notion of using movies to tell extended stories, instead of loosely-linked episodes, had caught on in a significant way, with Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, the Matrix and Pirates of the Caribbean trilogies, and the X-Men and Spider-Man series leading the way. And of course, there were the Star Wars prequels, which demonstrated decisively that you didn't need the original cast or characters for a companion movie to be a success — just a shared universe.
And if you don't need the original cast, who needs stars? This is where the franchise really comes into its own. The general consensus since the dawn of the studio era was that the star made a film, even if it was part of a franchise. Bond would never have been Bond without Connery. The Dirty Harry series was a vehicle for Clint Eastwood. The real reason for the huge success of Star Wars and Indiana Jones movies was Harrison Ford's swagger and charisma. And nobody went to the Terminator movies because of the time-travel plots, but because they wanted to see Schwarzenegger kick ass. But as the franchises got larger and more ambitious, the concepts and the story became the stars. There's no doubt that having Viggo Mortensen in LotR or Maguire playing Spidey made a lot of difference. In a few cases, the casting was absolutely essential, like Depp in the first Pirates, or Downey in the Marvel flicks. But Downey, who's about as old-fashioned a movie star as you can get today, is really the exception to the rule. (And don't forget, when he made the first Iron Man, he came cheap.)
The real turning point came with the arrival of the first Transformers movie in 2007. Transformers was unusual in that it was based, not on a traditional source like a book, comic, or TV show, but a brand — in this case, a line of toys that Hasbro licensed from several Japanese companies in the '80s and repurposed as a single product line, using story elements from the Marvel comic books and animated show. In essence, like the comics and cartoons before it, the movie was a glorified ad for toys, aimed both at nostalgic adults and robot-loving kids. Lots of movies had spawned successful toy lines before, but Transformers eliminated the pretense that there needed to be a preexisting story to sell Optimus Prime figures. It was the movie as merchandising. The human performers, Shia LaBeouf and Megan Fox, were presented as the breakout stars, but in the last few years they've faded into relative ignominy. Optimus and the gang are back later this month, with a new human pal in the form of Mark Wahlberg, who probably won't be back for part five.
Not every summer blockbuster is as severe an example as Transformers, which may turn out to be an extreme case. But the movie does illuminate how the franchise has trumped the star, and also how in turn, the concept or the platform has trumped the idea of the series. The Marvel movies, for example, work in parallel, not serial format. There may be favorites like Iron Man, but audiences are still interested in finding out what's been going on with Cap and Thor since the end of Avengers. (The real problem is figuring out how to incorporate new characters and movies into the matrix.) It's no surprise that Disney is exporting this model to the Star Wars franchise, with "interstitial" movies about Boba Fett and Red Squadron between the trilogy films. And you can be sure that other studios are looking at this comic book-style "mega-event" approach as well. It may get to the point that modern studios develop properties so that they can share a universe, or a summer at least, much in the same way that Marvel's Secret Wars or DC's Crisis on Infinite Earths turned their entire universes into a single narrative, serving to create a uniform brand identity.
Just look at the two movies that kicked poor Edge of Tomorrow to the curb. Maleficent is a prequel/sequel to Disney's 1959 Sleeping Beauty with elements of a reboot and a remake, but it's also an extension of the Disney Princess brand, which has been essentially retrofitted as a sort of Marvel Universe for pre-teen girls. In addition to referencing the classic cartoons, it's not hard to imagine that it could spawn sequels and crossovers with the other live action Disney reboots. Like Iron Man, it's laying down the roots for a long-lived and complex product line. Similarly, The Fault In Our Stars is also part of a huge brand, created by the author John Green. (This New Yorker profile is a must-read.) It's highly unlikely that the characters will be resurrected as super-empowered quip-borgs in a series of post-Singularity sequels, but again, this little movie is part of a titanic marketing juggernaut that's bound to spawn other movies, even if they aren't a movie franchise so much as an extension of Green's Internet and publishing empire — which, like blockbuster fanbases, is also a thriving community.
Where stars or series used to be the central force in movies, now the brand is king. If you're a rising actor or actress, you probably won't be able to break through with a distinctive role unless you hitch your star to a franchise based on a comic book or YA novel. Ditto if you're a director, though certain filmmakers have been able to create identities out of their work, like Wes Anderson, whose most recent movie, The Grand Budapest Hotel, is a modest blockbuster with $160 million in box office receipt. (Though it's doubtful that he'll be invited by Disney to direct The Life Aquatic With Admiral Ackbar anytime soon.) It's depressing, because it will be harder for the Scorseses and Spielbergs of the future, if there are any, to find their visions if they're too busy making sequels and remakes of things created by their predecessors. But maybe art, like life, will find a way, even if it's only in a Howard the Duck reboot.
The age of the franchise is over. The day of the brandchise has begun.

Realizing that my previous post is more of a rant than anything, not leaving much for anyone to take away from it, I am now following up. I am hoping this time around to provide you with at least an encouraging direction to go.
I was uncomfortable in my skin after starting to analyze my consumption levels. This led to me lashing out at the world at large, blaming it for my woes. Truth is, I have complete control over my consumption and so do you.
If you never stop to take a breath and look at your life, it is easy to gloss over and simply miss just how much we consume and waste. This includes everything from the amount of water we use brushing our teeth to how much we both eat and throw away at each of our meals – and each of our snacks too! It also includes the time we waste, both ours and others, as well as money.
Analyzing every aspect of your life is not easy, but if you sit down and begin to write out your daily routine in fine detail you will start to see just how much there is each day.
Was it cold that night and you had the heater on the whole time? Did you re-wash a cup because you dropped it? How much of the banana did you toss, and did you just throw it away or compost it? How about your clothes, are they new because you needed new cloths or because you wanted new ones? Were the old ones re-purposed, recycled, or gifted, or thrown away?
What did you buy today, did you get a bottle of water because you forgot to bring your own container? Did you get an extra snack just because you decided to spend some time looking at magazines and felt obligated to grab something? Did you get an extra shot of espresso because you didn't sleep well last night? Did you spend more on an expensive salad at lunch because you felt guilty for the breakfast burrito you had in the morning? Did you spend 2 hours of your day looking at Reddit or Facebook without realizing it, time that could have been used at work or to work on your own projects instead?
The list goes on and is daunting, but it is worth it to really dig deep and see what you are doing in your day-to-day. Where your time and money goes. What you put into your body and what you put into the trash. Where you contributed to your health and your future and where you contributed to your demise and regrets.
Keep in mind that this extends beyond you, to your loved ones and those whose lives you touch daily. Did you waste their time or money on useless conversations or things? Did you waste your company's time and money? Did you contribute to companies that do not care about their footprint on the earth? Are you raising your kids to be better than you in all these categories or are you possibly setting them up for failure?
It hurts to answer some of these questions, I know! Especially when you start to do it each day, back to back.
There is absolutely nothing more damning than wasted potential, and that is what I found when I analyzed consumption in my life, which is why I felt it to be vile and decided to write about it.
So what can you do?
Make a list!
Well for starters, make a list, start an excel sheet and categorize and log everything you can imagine in your life each day for at least one day, but preferably a week. Yes, it will take time and effort, but really give it a try. In the process you just might find yourself starting to question each action and if it is worth it or not. Where is it's value to you and your future and the future of your loved ones? This alone can help you immensely.
Make cover-all decisions!
Make decisions once that will make future decisions easier or obsolete all together. Concrete things like, "If I forget to bring my own drink, I will not buy any drinks to replace it for the day." This will do a few things. First, it is a punishment for forgetting. It also saves you time and money to go get a drink. You will save some waste by not having to trash the bottle that doesn't need to be used in the first place. Most importantly, you will not have to think about things like this in your day to day life. You've made this decision once and can forget it and just follow the rule. Eventually you'll find yourself no longer forgetting to bring your container with you.
Another great decision would be to set time limits on your phone for specific apps. iPhones have the Screen Time setting which allows you to do just this and I'm sure there is an Android equivalent somewhere. Decide to set these limits and stick to them and you'll find you have a lot more time in the day to apply to other areas of your life. But the trick here is to stick to those limits! Adjusting them is fine if it is needed, but do you really need to scroll one more time in the hopes that the next re-post will be sufficiently funny for you to finally stop scrolling? All this will do is reinforce your want to scroll again. Instead you could spend that time investing in the future of you!
Seek value!
This takes time but doesn't have to necessarily eat up your money. Find podcasts or blogs of people who have great advice and successful lives and try to understand their messages and filter them and apply them to your life. If you are a health nut, listen to great podcasts that dig into these topics which can help you save time in deciding what direction you want to go by letting the professionals filter out the dribble. If you are a frugal person, find a blog about personal finance or financial independence and start applying lessons. If you are saving time and money elsewhere, you have it ready to invest in other parts of your life!
Another form a value to seek is in how you think. And I mean this in the most literal sense. Grab some philosophy books and actually learn about the different ways humans think. Analyze what you are and 'why' you are and you will find it all the easier to start picking apart your life of consumption and changing things for the better.
Now obviously you are not going to turn around in a week and suddenly have a zero-footprint life on earth with all your free time going into only smart future self-investments in your physical and mental health and skills that will improve your lifestyle and income, etc.
But you can take that first step today by starting your list and seeing where takes you!
Get to it!

Culture as the Caveat Towards a Circular Economy
Circular economy represents an economic and political challenge, as well as a cultural one, requiring a massive transformation on all levels of society. But why is cultural change so important to understanding today's economy and how can the circular model be considered a truly cross-cultural concept?
The idea behind the concept of circular economy is that of a more collaborative and participatory economy, which, among other things, is aimed at deeply transforming production chains and consumption habits.
Drought in California Triggers Action Across the Golden State
After four consecutive years of below-normal precipitation, California faces the most severe drought in 110 years. The Sierra Nevada's snowpack is melting, farmland has to be fallowed, and lawn watering is banned, while politicians seek new ways to deal with the water shortage. Indeed, an unpleasant wake-up call for all, but also, a driver of green innovation and new ideas.
Highlight of the Month: Yardfarmers Reality TV
Around 16 million hectares of American soil is being used for turf-grass lawns, which are a major source of carbon dioxide. A new reality TV show called Yardfarmers will attempt to turn carbon-intensive lawns into fertile agricultural land.

On the market for an iPhone? Here's a breakdown of all the currently shipping iPhones from Apple.
Intel's Upcoming Coffee Lake Processors Up to 30% Faster Than Kaby Lake Chips Coming to Mac Notebooks
"We will have more to say about the 8th Gen Intel Core processor in the future but it's exciting to share that in the latest testing, we're seeing a performance improvement of more than 30 percent over the 7th Gen Intel Core processor," said Gregory Bryant, a senior executive at Intel.
Using the benchmark tool SYSmark 2014 v1.5 on Windows 10, Intel compared an unreleased Core i7 quad-core processor with an unspecified base clock speed, and Turbo Boost up to 4GHz, against its Core i7-7500U dual-core processor with a base clock speed of 2.7GHz and Turbo Boost up to 3.5GHz.
Both are 15W chips, creating the possibility of a quad-core 13-inch MacBook Pro with Coffee Lake in the future.
Intel aims to make its Coffee Lake lineup available to computer makers in the second half of this year, and the eighth-generation processors should provide the usual benefits of faster performance and longer battery life in future Macs.
Apple has yet to update its Mac lineup with Kaby Lake processors in the first place, but the company reportedly plans to announce new 12-inch MacBook and MacBook Pro models equipped with the seventh-generation chips at its annual Worldwide Developers Conference next week.
It's still too early to say when we'll see the first Mac with Coffee Lake, but it likely won't be until at least late 2017 or early 2018 given Intel's roadmap.
Earlier this year, KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo said Apple plans to launch a nondescript "15-inch MacBook" with 32GB of desktop-class RAM. He said the notebook will enter mass production in the early September quarter, but it's uncertain if Coffee Lake processors will be readily available by then.
Intel today also unveiled its Core X-series processor family for desktop computers, ranging from quad-core options to the high-end Core i9 Extreme Edition with 18 cores. The processors, codenamed "Basin Falls," are "coming soon." More details and tech specs are listed in this fact sheet and slideshow.
Apple has promised to release a high-end iMac for professional users later this year, and Intel's new Core X-series processors appear to be appropriate for the desktop computer if the company wishes to use them. However, a rumor points towards Apple using Intel's Xeon E3 processors for at least some of the new iMacs.
Apple's current Mac lineup uses a mix of Intel's older Haswell, Broadwell, Skylake, and Ivy Bridge processors. Coffee Lake will be an iteration of Kaby Lake, based on a 14nm process, and it's not to be confused with Intel's upcoming "Cannonlake" processors based on an all-new 10nm process.

Welcome to the world of tech.
So if Apple refreshes the MacBook's next week, they'll be outdated again within a couple months?
They'll be outdated the day they're released;
Gimped GPU, soldered components, limited ports, insulting price tag, etc.
Charges from the bottom of the device, because courage.
Coffee lake? What happened to cannon lake?Coffee sounds much more productive than a Canon, although I guess that depends on your needs.
Agree - gets old. Always out of date and just keep doing to make new money.
strange how that works isn't it? Those pesky new things keep coming along.
You must be very frustrated with a lot of things in life....appliances, TVs, cars...so annoying how improvements are always made
Hate to break it to you: they're already outdated.Uh, so the MacBook Pro that hasn't been released yet is outdated because of an Intel chip that is far from being released yet (see Intel's recent scorecard on hitting their own schedule or promised performance). Your comment doesn't make sense.
Apple cannot release a computer using a non-existent Intel chip, nor can they, in fairness, even design a computer based on a non-existent chip. This is not an Apple issue, go troll Intel.
So if Apple refreshes the MacBook's next week, they'll be outdated again within a couple months?
Hate to break it to you: they're already outdated.
Coffee lake? What happened to cannon lake?
Coffee Lake is a refinement of Kaby Lake. Same 14 nm process but various additions like six-core mobile CPUs.
Cannonlake is the move to 10 nm.

As with divorce, California's attempted dissolution from its state milk marketing order is a lengthier process than first envisioned.
In 2015, California milk producers petitioned the U.S. Department of Agriculture through their cooperatives – Land O'Lakes, Dairy Farmers of America and California Dairies, Inc. – for permission to join the Federal Milk Marketing Order (FMMO) and thus leave the state-run system that governs how milk is priced.
Other proposals were presented at the same time by milk processors through the California Dairy Institute; the California Producer Handlers Association, an organization that represents four vertically-integrated dairy farms; and by Ponderosa Dairy, a Nevada-based dairy operation that ships milk into California.
In early February, the USDA published its FMMO proposal in the Federal Register, which opens another public comment process that runs until May 15.
According to Western United Dairymen, a voluntary dairy trade association representing California milk producers, some of what dairy producers sought in their formal request of USDA was tentatively agreed to by the agency. In other areas, the USDA's proposed decision more closely mirrors the proposal put forth by the Dairy Institute of California.
The reason behind the desire by California dairymen to exit the state system stems from the lower price dairy California dairy producers receive under the state's milk marketing order. California milk prices are set by the California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA).
The difference – the price between the state and federal orders – has been as high as about $2.50 per hundredweight in favor of the federal orders. Since 2010 the difference has cost California milk producers nearly $2 billion in lost revenue opportunities, according to the Milk Producers Council, a dairy trade association based in southern California.
Dairy industry experts say the difference can be attributed to how whey is factored between the federal and California formulas.
Perhaps the most important issue for California producers under the FMMO will be how California quota is handled. This is a higher price paid to California milk producers and is a commodity unto itself that can be traded for a price.
Dairymen said at the outset of the hearings, which ran for about two months in Clovis, Calif. in late 2015, that the quota system would need to remain unchanged if they were going to support any USDA proposal.
While the USDA proposal keeps the California quota system, it leaves it up to the CDFA to administer and determine all relevant details of the program. This has led to questions by dairy producer groups and others as to how this could play out.
Though quota is kept in the FMMO, Annie AcMoody, director of economic analysis for Western United Dairymen, says there are a number of questions as to how it could be administered by CDFA and, as such, is not "cut and dry."
One of the contentions is the USDA decision to allow CDFA to deduct producer payments to manage the program. Another confusing part stems from the possibility that the CDFA may need legislative approval to manage a program that it currently already manages.
Another California-only provision in the proposed order stems from the state's fluid milk fortification standard, which provides for higher milkfat requirement and supplements fluid milk with non-fat solids, to reach regulated total milk solids content. The USDA proposal elects to keep the California standard but provides no fortification allowances.
Federal orders have no such fortification requirement.
Processor's response
Rachel Kaldor, executive director of the Dairy Institute of California, likes the current USDA proposal as it aligns with recommendations the organization put forth as part of its proposal, which she says in a prepared statement is "consistent with the 10 other FMMO's currently in operation in the United States."
While producers sought a mandatory pooling provision in the California FMMO, the USDA recommends instead that pooling rules similar to the Upper Midwest and Southwest be implemented.
According to Kaldor, California dairy farmers asked the USDA for a unique FMMO to compel California milk processors to be fully regulated. The USDA proposal currently does not allow for that. Instead, the USDA says processors in FMMO's choose to participate in pooling and pricing regulations and that out of Class 1 (fluid) utilization, such participation is not mandatory.
What's next?
The recent proposal in the Federal Register is just that – a proposal. It comes after the public hearings in 2015 and months of follow-up submissions from the various interests as part of the public comment process.
From the testimony given at those public hearings and later responses by interested parties, the USDA came up with its proposal which now is in its own response period, meaning that interested parties can submit written exceptions to the proposed rule.
Written exceptions to the current proposed rule must be submitted before May 15.
Once this step is complete, the USDA will issue its final proposal at which time milk producers can vote up or down on the proposal. These votes can happen individually or by block vote, meaning the cooperatives vote on behalf of their members. There is no provision for producers to vote separately from their cooperatives if the cooperatives are also voting.
Comments on the current proposal should be submitted at the Federal eRulemaking portal: http://www.regulations.gov. Comments may also be filed with the Hearing Clerk, U.S. Department of Agriculture, Room 1031–S, Washington, DC 20250–9200, or send a fax to (202) 720–9976. All comments should reference the docket number and the date and page number of this issue of the Federal Register.

Publication date: 19/07/2018
Regulated information - Galapagos NV (Euronext & NASDAQ: GLPG) and MorphoSys AG (FSE: MOR; Prime Standard Segment, TecDAX; NASDAQ: MOR) announced today that they have entered into a worldwide, exclusive agreement with Novartis Pharma AG covering the development and commercialization of their joint program MOR106.
MOR106 is an investigational, fully human, IgG1 monoclonal antibody directed against the target IL-17C that was generated in a collaboration between MorphoSys and Galapagos. Under the terms of the agreement, the parties will cooperate to broaden the existing development plan for MOR106 in AtD significantly. Novartis will be exclusively holding all rights for commercialization of any products resulting from the agreement signed today.
Upon the signing of the agreement, all future research, development, manufacturing and commercialization costs for MOR106 will be borne by Novartis. This includes the ongoing Phase 2 IGUANA trial in atopic dermatitis patients as well as a planned Phase 1 study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a subcutaneous formulation of MOR106 in healthy volunteers and AtD patients. MorphoSys and Galapagos will conduct additional trials to support development of MOR106 in AtD. Under the terms of the agreement, Novartis will explore the potential of MOR106 in additional indications other than AtD.
In addition to the funding of the current and future MOR106 program by Novartis, MorphoSys and Galapagos will jointly receive an upfront payment of EUR 95 million (USD 111 million*). Pending achievement of certain developmental, regulatory, commercial and sales-based milestones, MorphoSys and Galapagos would jointly be eligible to receive significant milestone payments, potentially amounting up to approximately EUR 850 million (USD 1 billion*), in addition to tiered royalties on net commercial sales in the range of up to low-teens to low-twenties. Under the terms of their 2008 agreement, Galapagos and MorphoSys will share all payments equally (50/50).
The agreement between MorphoSys, Galapagos, and Novartis is subject to clearance by the US antitrust authorities under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act, and will become effective as soon as this condition has been met.
"This collaboration with Novartis will enable us to accelerate and broaden the development of MOR106 beyond our current focus on atopic dermatitis and to exploit the potential of MOR106 to the maximum. Data from preclinical models and expression analyses suggest that the target of MOR106 might be involved in other diseases, which justifies expanding the development program. We are also very pleased that we can further strengthen our engagement in atopic dermatitis by starting additional trials together with Galapagos, which will be fully reimbursed by Novartis," commented Dr. Simon Moroney, Chief Executive Officer of MorphoSys AG. "Securing a strong and committed partner for MOR106 helps the program, and also enables us to allocate more resources elsewhere."
"It is very gratifying to announce this collaboration with Novartis, an immunology & dermatology powerhouse, to broadly expand the development and pave the path to potential commercialization of MOR106. We look forward to working with Novartis to support further progress with MOR106," said Onno van de Stolpe, CEO of Galapagos.
MorphoSys and Galapagos concluded a Phase 1 study of MOR106 in healthy volunteers as well as in atopic dermatitis patients in 2017. A Phase 2 clinical trial (IGUANA) in moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis patients was started in May 2018. MOR106 is the first publicly known human monoclonal antibody directed against IL-17C in clinical development worldwide. MOR106 is an investigational drug candidate and its safety and efficacy have not yet been established.

Program Overview
The Family Support and Parenting Education in the Home Program was developed in 1964 to serve poor children in the city of Baltimore. A woman from the participants' community served as a home visitor for new parents, with the goal of encouraging parental compliance with well-child visits, referring parents to support services when necessary, and discussing child development and parenting skills. The first home visit was made within seven to ten days of the child's birth, and nine subsequent visits were made before the child's second birthday. The program was an augmentation of the Children and Youth (C&Y) program, which operated health clinics for families with children ages 0-18 in inner city Baltimore.
Program Participants
Healthy black neonates weighing more than 2,000 grams and their mothers ages 18 or older were involved in the study.
Evaluation Methods
The Children and Youth (C&Y) health clinics provided well-child care for parents in inner-city Baltimore, and they served as the location of the family support and parenting education program study. Parents of healthy infants enrolled in C&Y clinics for health services were randomized to treatment (N=143) and control (N=147) groups. Treatment and control groups were comparable on measures of demographic characteristics, risk status as determined by C&Y staff members at intake, and Medicaid eligibility.
The treatment group received 10 total home visiting services focused on parenting, child development, and encouraging timely well-child visits at the C&Y clinics. The control group had access to the same well-child visits, but did not receive any support through home visitation. To encourage attendance, home visits were scheduled to occur immediately prior to scheduled well-child clinic visits. Six mothers refused participation in the study, and 27 of the 290 participants (12 treatment and 15 control subjects) were lost to follow-up (Hardy and Streett, 1989).
Key Evaluation Findings
Health care service utilization
- There was no significant difference between treatment and control groups in visits to the C&Y clinic for health care.
- Significantly more children in the treatment group had completed the appropriate amount of preventative care for their age (88 percent versus 69 percent).
- Fewer children in the treatment group had delayed preventive care, defined as immunizations given one or more months beyond the proper age (6 versus 14 percent).
Child illness, injury, abuse, and neglect
- There was no significant difference between treatment and control groups in the number of incidents of closed head trauma.
- In the treatment group, the incidence of chronic otitis media, an ear infection commonly associated with upper respiratory tract infections and associated with a lack of compliance with medications and/or follow-up appointments, was less than half that of the control group (21 versus 55 percent).
- Treatment group participants also had significantly lower rates of severe diaper rash than control group participants (21 versus 34 percent).
- Suspected abuse and neglect (as determined by C&Y staff) was significantly lower in the treatment group (1.5 percent in the treatment group versus 9.8 percent in the control group).
- Illness or accident requiring hospitalization was also significantly lower in the treatment group (6.1 versus 15.2 percent).

Implementation Detail
Program Design
The family support and parenting education program was designed as a way to lend informal support on issues such as child development and parenting strategies, rather than to intervene in psychosocial issues per se. The home visitors linked mothers to additional support services when necessary. The home visits were conducted prior to scheduled well-child visits, with the goal of encouraging attendance.
The program employed home visitors who resided in the target community. They worked in collaboration with a social worker and were provided brief trainings on the content of the home visits.
The home visitors used a parenting education curriculum designed to deliver age-appropriate information to parents on parenting, child safety, health care, and immunizations. Mothers were also given calendars with developmental milestones, dates and times of clinic visits, and important telephone numbers included. Pamphlets on child care were also distributed.
Issues to Consider
While the evaluation of this program used a randomized control design, the program improved an intermediate outcome that has an unknown relationship to the benchmark of interest. Specifically, this program received a "promising" rating for the indicator Children not experiencing physical, psychological, or emotional abuse. Suspected abuse was impacted by participation in the treatment group, but the criteria for suspected abuse were not described, nor were the number of cases of actual abuse.
A notable aspect of this program is that it appears to have improved outcomes with a very small number of visits (10) and a relatively low-skill workforce, relative to many current models of home visiting. The results are at least suggestive that a low-cost, low-intensity home visiting program might have some impact on important indicators of early childhood well-being.
There is limited information about program implementation and the types of training that were offered to the home visitors, and about the content of their home visits.
Example Sites
The program was implemented in Baltimore, Maryland, in the 1960s and is not currently operating.

The Dracula File (Rebellion)
In the case of Scream!!, by the time the latter had gutted the paper put together by the former, you had a tepid, middle-of-the-road action comic with only a few chills left in it.
This is not to say that everything about it was forgettable. Some very good writers and artists put their talents to work and, within the restrictions placed on them, came up with some compelling and interesting takes on some horror staples. Rebellion have already reprinted Monster from its pages, and for their second bite of Scream!! they have chosen The Dracula File.
Author Gerry Finley-Day brought the classic vampire character right up to date (1984), beginning with a defection from East Germany, a curiously ageless patient, a fire in a military hospital ahead of the patient from behind the Iron Curtain being relocated to the UK by British Intelligence... and all this in the first episode! As with any British comic—where moving the plot along trumps coincidence at every turn—the pretending-to-be-unconscious defector is a vampire and MI5 are taking him to precisely where he wants to go, a creepy mansion in the English countryside.
The only people to realise that a vampire is loose in England are the Russians, led by KGB officer Colonel Stakis, a Roumanian. Stakis's obsession with monitoring the situation leads to him attacking a Commissar and his commanding general when they try to stop his unofficial investigation. The disgraced officer then makes his way to the UK in search of Dracula.
The volume includes all four Holiday Special stories (drawn by Bradbury, Geoff Senior and Keith Page), a cover gallery and a feature by David McDonald about Fleetway Publications' troubled relationship with horror comics over the years. McDonald reprinted the same stories in The Dracula File from Hibernia in 2015, but in limited numbers. Hopefully the new volume, with its larger pages showing off Eric Bradbury's amazing artwork to even better effect, will reach Scream!!'s old fans and a new audience alike this Halloween.
The Dracula Files. Rebellion ISBN 978-1781-08599-8, 19 October 2017, 101pp, £15.99 / $19.99. Available via Amazon.

Elites engage in commerce by proxy ....
Perhaps one should give thought to doing the same?
Physiocracy is an agrarianist philosophy which may trace its origins to various sources. During the latter period of the Roman Republic, the dominant senatorial class was not allowed to engage in banking or commerce but relied on their latifundia, large plantations, for income. They circumvented this rule through freedmen proxies who sold surplus agricultural goods.
After the decline of the Roman Empire, de-urbanization led to commerce and trade ceasing to exist throughout most of western Europe. Economies became centered around agricultural manors where warrior-landlords, the Medieval nobility, collected rent from their serfs in the form of their produce. This was the dominant economic system until trade began to return in the Late Middle Ages leading to the rise of the merchant class.

Your explanation totally made me lol. but you can put a label on a spectrum. it's like two people saying their favourite colour is purple but one person meant lilac, a lighter shade, and the other person meant a rich, deep purple. I for one like labels, I consider it an easy way to explain something briefly instead of saying oh I like this, and this, but not this except for when.etc.
It is a real pleasure to observe that believers have dirty sex as we have the name oft he cross.God is standing and loves his people. He will show the most pleasant positions to all who are admiring him respectfully.

Lethbridge Police have charged a 32-year-old man with assault with a weapon in connection with an incident last week where a male was pepper sprayed.
On June 30, 2016 between 12:20 a.m. and 2:58 a.m. police responded to a total of four assault reports involving male victims who were sprayed in the face with pepper spray. Two of the incidents occurred near the 300 block of Stafford Drive North, one near the 400 block of 5 Street South and the other in the alley along the 200 block of 1 Avenue South.
In three of the cases, the victims were confronted by a group of males who were unknown to them and in the fourth case the victim was confronted and assaulted by a male subject who is known to him. In all cases the subjects fled the area prior to police arrival and despite efforts to find them, were not located. None of the victims was seriously injured.
Following further investigation a suspect was identified and located later in the day on June 30. He was arrested without incident and has been charged in connection with one of the pepper spray assaults. The other three assaults remain under investigation as there is insufficient evidence to lay additional charges at this time.
Barry Joel Soosay, 32, of Lethbridge, is charged with one count of assault with a weapon and breach of probation.
Soosay was released from custody by a Justice of the Peace with conditions including a daily curfew and prohibitions from having any contact with the victim, possessing any weapons or attending the downtown core. Soosay was scheduled to make his first court appearance yesterday.

Business Rules
Business rules are manually-created formulas for rewriting queries. This is the most versatile strategy for creating custom query rewrites. It supports a variety of conditions and actions to address a wide range of use cases. When you need a very specific query rewrite, this is the best strategy.
Business rules are applied in the Apply Rules stage of the query pipeline.
Instructions for creating a new business rule are below. See Business Rules to learn more about how to use business rules.
Navigate to Relevance > Query Rewriting.
Under Business Rules, click View.
Click the icon.
The New Rule window appears:
General Condition Action
In the General column, only the Name field is required. Other fields are optional:
Description is an arbitrary string you can use to describe this rule.
Rule Group can be a user-defined group that you use to organize your rules.
Tags are another way to organize your rules. Tags appear as facets in the Business Rules interface, so you can filter the set of visible rules by tag.
Priority can be used to determine which rule should apply first if multiple rules are activated for the same request. Priority is an integer value, ranging from 1 to infinity, with the value 1 given highest priority. If multiple rules have the same value, those rules are applied in a random order.
Enabled means that this rule is applied (but not necessarily published). Disabling a rule helps ensure that it is not accidentally published.
Conditions are triggers that activate the rule when they match the current date and time, query, or field values.
See Rule conditions below.
A rule can take different types of actions when the specified conditions are met.
See Action types below. You can also create custom actions.

I recently began reading a friend's blog as they spend some time overseas and was inspired to finally get my thoughts out of my head and drafted into the abyss of the internet.
I promise nothing, but the ramblings of a young South African student as I finish my degree and venture into the world of journalism. My greatest hope is that my words will create a new voice, a voice that has been silenced for far too long, a voice of passion, creativity, love and immeasurable power.

I used to troll Uniqlo when they only had one store in Manhattan and things sold out all the time. Now that they have three stores in NYC and online shopping, I kind of forget that they exist.
I checked their shop tonight and came across the latest collab with the Japanese brand, beautiful people. bp reminds me of the brand Band of Outsiders and there are styles that remind me of both sides of the boy-meets-girl clothing line.
I love buffalo plaid and gingham, as well as jackets, so I naturally adore these macs! I get really upset when the weather skips over the trench coat temperatures and goes straight to summer or winter. I'm also reminded of my first khaki mac from Gap, bought in 2001 or 2002. Back then, it was a big purchase. As much as I'm tempted to buy these online, I have to be unlazy and walk 12 blocks to the psychedelic flagship to figure out my size.

In the past few months, weve brought you stories about the heart attack and stroke risks found with NSAID drugs, as well as the potentially dangerous side effects of other OTC drugs that you may not know about. The evidence continues to build today as research conducted at the University of Washington has been published in the Journal of Oncology that has found some scary possibilities associated with what is arguably the most popular drug in the world. Acetaminophen, the active ingredient in numerous OTC pain relievers like Tylenol and Excedrin was a common link in what Dr. Roland Walter and his colleagues say is a twofold increased risk for 3 different types of blood cancer.
Dr. Walters group analyzed information collected and published in the 2004 Journal of Epidemiologys Vitamins and Lifestyle study (VITAL). It contained results from almost 65,000 participants who were between the ages of 50 and 76. Of those participants, the ones who said they took acetaminophen drugs 4 days a week over a 4 year period were twice as likely to have developed blood cancers as those who took it less frequently or not at all. Plasma cell disorders, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, and myeloid neoplasms were the noted types that developed. Dr. Walter was quoted as saying Acetaminophen use on the majority of the days over many years appears to be associated with this new adverse effect.
Acetaminophen is the leading cause of ER visits related to drug overdoses among children, and the FDA has warned that it can be toxic and can lead to liver failure. Some other studies have also linked repeat exposure to kidney damage and even death. More studies with similar findings will be needed of course to validate these results, but with the existing evidence from previous research its not all that farfetched.
