A long-term and personal commitment for employees can be expected to increase the motivation in the future work, stimulate greater interest for the business and the profit performance and increase sense of connection with the company. For this purpose companies usually establishes stock option programs where current and future employees of the company are offered an opportunity to take part of the company's future value growth. Employees are offered the opportunity to subscribe for warrants in the company, hence giving them a right to subscribe for shares in the company at a predetermined subscription price. There are different kinds of stock option programs of which we will clarify employee warrants and securities warrants. It may be noted that an incorrectly made stock option program may result in unexpected and in some cases very severe tax consequences.
(i) Securities warrants establishes a tax effective instrument to reward employees for past services and also motivate them to work in order to increase the company value. Securities options must be transferable and hence the transferability is usually regulated in separate warrant holder agreements, containing provisions regarding bad and good leaver, vesting and similar regulations.
(ii) Employee warrants are an effective way to retain key employees and to tie them closer to the company. Employee warrants typically implies that the employee has no right to transfer its employee warrants and that they expire if and when the employment is terminated, which implies higher tax for both the employee and employer. Note that the employee warrants usually are transferred to the employees free of charge or at price beneath market value.
Regardless stock option program is it essential that the program implemented is properly designed and that both the employer and the employees are clear about what the program actually implicates, such as how the tax, transferability and termination of employment should be regulated.

Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey (GOODS)
Hubble, the Chandra X-ray Observatory, the Spitzer Space Telescope, and several ground-based observatories were part of a collaborative deep-sky survey to study galaxy evolution. The GOODS observations cover a broader section of the sky than the deep fields, though the deep field observations reveal fainter objects. Gazing into that region, the GOODS collaboration uncovered about 50,000 galaxies that stretch far out in space. Hubble's Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) sampled about 25,000 of those galaxies, including several thousand that are more than 10 billion light-years away.

Principal Forms for Income Tax Declaration
All taxpayers subject to income tax in France must report their income for the previous year before May 18th 2017 for a paper return and between 23 and 30 May (depending on the taxpayer's place of residence) for a declaration via the internet. Each statement deals with the entire tax household.
The main printouts to be completed are as follows:
1/ Number 2042: This is the main form that any taxable taxpayer in France has to fill out.
It contains the following information:
- Address of the tax department which will receive the declaration,
- The civil status of the taxpayer and his family status,
- The identity of dependents.
It allows to declare the annual taxable amount of the following revenues:
- Wages, pensions and annuities,
- Income from movable capital,
- Capital gains on stocks and shares,
- Property income.
The most common deductible expenses (deductible CSG, pensions paid, retirement savings) as well as certain income received abroad and taxable in France can be indicated on this form.
2/ Number 2042 RICI: This makes it possible to request reductions as well as tax credits. This mainly concerns:
- Various donations,
- Dependent children pursuing studies,
- The use of home and child care staff,
- Energy-saving expenses in the main residence.
3/ Number 2042 C: This concerns:
- Capital gain on stock options for employees,
- Tax-exempt wages and pensions which must be indicated for the calculation of the effective tax rate,
- Income from capital: deduction of previous losses,
- Plus values and gains,
- Reductions or tax credits on certain rental investments,
- Reduction of tax for subscribing to the capital of small companies,
- Wealth tax.
4/ Number 2042 C PRO: It allows the reporting of all income from independent activities, whether professional or not:
- Agricultural profits and losses carried forward,
- Industrial and commercial profits and deductible losses,
- Non-commercial profits and deductible losses,
- Income of renters in furnished apartments.
Professional income must be separated from non-professional income because the deficits made in the latter category cannot be deducted from other income of the tax household.
5/ Number 2044: In this declaration, the net tax result from unfurnished rentals is determined. The net profit or loss is then reported on Form 2042 to be taxed.
6/ Number 2044 SPECIALE: This is the same statement as the 2044 print above, but it is adapted to the rental income benefiting from special tax deductions.
7/ Number 2074: This form is required to declare:
- Capital gains distributed by a mutual fund,
- Transfers of transferable securities and capital shares,
- Closing of Accounts Stock Savings Plan.
This document is sometimes accompanied by the following annexes:
- 2074 I: For tracking capital gains on tax deferral
- 2074 DIR: To declare the capital gains realized by an executive of a European company at the time of his retirement. This type of capital gains benefits from a reduction of € 500,000.
- 2074 IMP: For capital gains on transfers of securities made by impatriates.
- 2074 ETD: Allows reporting of unrealized capital gains in the event of a transfer of domicile outside of France.
8/ Number 2047: For income from abroad perceived by a French resident. This form has to be completed following the rules on Tax Treaty between France and foreign countries.
9/ Number 2041E: This form is intended for non-residents subject to tax in France on their income from French sources.
10/ Number 3916: This form must be completed by any person residing in France who holds bank accounts in a foreign country. Failure to report these accounts results in significant penalties.
There are still some tax forms used more rarely. We report three:
- 2042K IOM: For overseas investments.
- 2042LE: To pay the special tax on high rents.
- 2042TA: To claim the refund of the additional tax on leases.
A majority of French taxpayers must use only a few of these forms, but it is very important to choose the form that corresponds perfectly to the tax status of the declarant. In addition, some of them are complicated and the total amount of tax payable depends on the proper interpretation of the information contained therein.
To make such statements, it is often preferable (or even indispensable) to call a tax advisor specialized in French taxation especially when you have income from abroad to avoid double taxation.
You can contact us to advise you on the best option for you.

Ms. Cueva however, made it possible to bring my wife's niece into the US as her caretaker for one year while I am overseas. She did so with a positive attitude and was very helpful in the process.

Julius, baron von Haynau, (born Oct. 14, 1786, Kassel, Hesse-Kassel [Germany]—died March 14, 1853, Vienna, Austrian Empire), Austrian general whose military successes were overshadowed by his notorious brutality.
Entering the Austrian Army in 1801, Haynau saw action throughout the Napoleonic Wars and remained in service after the Congress of Vienna (1814–15). During the revolutions of 1848–49, he campaigned in Italy, where he marred his undoubted military abilities by the inordinately severe repression of a rising in Brescia. Moving to Hungary in command of an army corps in 1849, Haynau again, though successful in the field, used what many thought was undue harshness. He retired in 1850 and toured Europe, but his reputation was such that he was exposed to mob violence during his visits to London in 1850 and Brussels in 1852.

Scoliosis is a health issue that puts a severe impact on your spine and changes its shape in a way. This change of shape can cause you a lot of trouble while sitting, walking or just standing. Usually, it creates a "C" or "S" shaped curve in your spine. Most of the times, the curves are so clear that you don't need to use any x-rays to take a look at the curves.
Mild scoliosis can be treated with the help of physical therapy regimen while the severe cases cannot be treated like these and you need to go for a surgery if you want to treat the severe state of scoliosis. Inversion therapy is considered to be one of the most remarkable physical therapies that can treat the mild state of the spine by producing some positive effects.
So, today we'll take a look at the detailed information about how inversion therapy can help treat scoliosis. But before moving further, you should keep in mind that the inversion therapy isn't the only therapy that can help produce your desired results but there are several other treatments that need to be used in conjunction with inversion therapy. Here is the information about how scoliosis can be helped with inversion therapy.
Pain Relief
People with scoliosis can get rid of the pain with the help of inversion therapy because an inversion table helps you stretch your body and stretching is the best option for relieving back pain. However, you should keep in mind that only the best inversion table 2016 can help produce your expected results, therefore, you must go for that option.
Your body becomes elongated when you are inverted on the table. The flow of blood increases in your body when you are in an inverted state and it also helps in producing fresh blood in your body. Thus, inversion therapy can provide you temporary pain relief.
Posture Correction
Correcting the posture is the most important thing when you are suffering from scoliosis and fortunately, inversion therapy can do that for you. The back spasms can be reduced with the help of increased blood flow. The reduction of these spasms can help improve the posture without painful braces.
Abdominal Strengthening
Your stomach is covered with the rectus abdominis muscle and it is the muscle that also helps in creating six-pack. The forward movement of your spine partly relies on this muscle. You can improve the strength of your rectus abdominis by using inversion tables to perform sit-ups and crunches.
Thus, you'd be able to stand straight without having to be worried about any kind of tiredness. Your abdominis muscle will become stronger depending on the time that you spend on an inversion table. Click Here and find more information about how scoliosis can be helped with the inversion therapy.

TWITTER TAKEOVER: Twitter Overwhelms Facebook Feeds
Update: For the latest information, please read CONFIRMED: Twitter Takeover Caused By Facebook Glitch.
There are a lot of people now reporting on Twitter that Facebook walls across the social web just got a ton of clutter. It appears to be affecting at least the official Twitter and FriendFeed applications on Facebook. Specifically, they're posting your updates onto your wall, regardless of your application or Facebook settings.
Like most people, the Mashable team don't have these apps set to update our status or our walls, but as you can see from this screenshot, it's happening anyway:
And clearly we're not the only ones, if the Twitter chatter is any indication.
With both the FriendFeed and Twitter apps on the fritz, it seems likely that there is an issue on the Facebook side - and that more apps are affected by the bug. We're going to keep investigating the matter and provide updates when we have them.

Hi, I'm Dr. John Grohol and I'd like to welcome you to Psych Central, a community of people dealing with mental health, family, parenting or relationship issues, just like you or someone you care about. We're here to help — not try and sell you something.
So relax, take a deep breath, and know you have a partner in your journey.
My motivation for helping others change their lives in positive ways began after I lost my childhood best friend to the effects of mental illness. His memory lives on through this website, and you can read more about our dedication to mental health here.
We're here to give you relevant, objective information about mental health, psychology and relationship issues. By having such information, you become an empowered individual who can then make better informed decisions about your treatment and personal recovery (or that of a loved one or friend). We also provide a lot of information about the basics of psychology, because self-knowledge is one of the most important things you can do to help yourself in life.
You might've noticed that this website is run by ordinary mental health professionals — not a group of business people, sales guys, or investors looking to make a quick return on their money. That's on purpose — that way you know the information we're providing is there because of our expertise.
We've been doing this for over 24 years — yes, long before Google and WebMD were around. And we hope to be doing this for many years to come, because there will always be people who need the kind of independent, objective information we provide.
So welcome! And please let me know if there's anything more we can do to help you with your needs.
If you're looking for a community of people who truly care about you and will help support your (or a loved one's) needs, you have two choices here at Psych Central. Our largest community is our Psych Central Community, where you can find self-help support groups on dozens of common mental health, daily living, and relationship issues. We also have a second, smaller community called NeuroTalk that focuses on neurological and related conditions (like Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease).
Both communities are closely monitored by a caring bunch of volunteers and overseen by Dr. John Grohol. Regardless of which community you choose (or both!), we encourage you to choose a username for yourself that you do not use elsewhere online. This will help increase your privacy as well.
We also have dozens of popular interactive quizzes on a range of topics, such as ADHD,
depression, bipolar disorder and schizophrenia, amongst many others. They are mostly short (under 20 questions), scientifically validated, and give you instant results. Most also allow you to save your results to your Psych Central account, so you can track your progress over time.
Not sure where to begin? You may want to try our Sanity Score, which is a general mental health screening of approximately 90 questions. It takes about 10-15 minutes to complete, but will give you a more complete picture of your life.
Again, welcome to our family here at Psych Central! Of course all of our services are and have always been free, so please enjoy them. Have a suggestion? We'd love to hear it! Thank you for choosing Psych Central.

When friends visit New York City from out of town, especially from Italy, we often end up taking a stroll through Manhattan's Little Italy, which looms large in the imagination of many Italians. Although they have seen it in movies and in TV shows, they tend to have a limited sense of how and why immigrants moved between different neighborhoods over time. Usually, they have no knowledge of the existence of the "other" Little Italies in the outer boroughs, let alone in places like Philadelphia or Providence. Above all, they are not familiar with the Italian-American culinary world, which they frequently perceive as merely a derivative interpretation of Italian food rather than a long and rich tradition.
As I have discussed in this blog, my exposure to Italian-American food was very limited when I first came to the U.S. Some things looked and tasted very different, but I have grown to appreciate and respect this culinary heritage as an important component in the process of globalization of Italian cuisines, as I argue in my upcoming book Al Dente: A History of Italian Food.
For those who are interested in these topics, The Italian American Table: Food, Family and Community in New York City provides great insight. Its author, Simone Cinotto -- a history professor at the University of Gastronomic Sciences in Bra, Italy -- focuses on the foodways of Italian immigrants in East Harlem during the 1920s and 1930s. Many New Yorkers are not aware of this area's Italian past, as its population is now mostly Hispanic. As Italians moved to the outer boroughs, African-Americans and Puerto Rican immigrants trickled in, creating the communities that still reside in those neighborhoods today. When the Italians migrated outward, they did so to leave the small and crowded apartments of the neighborhood, embracing the ideal of social mobility and one of its most beloved symbols: home ownership. They also did so to avoid getting confused with the newcomers, mostly people of color, as Italians had struggled for decades to assert their whiteness. This is particularly significant because Italian immigrants had themselves suffered from discrimination when they arrived in large numbers beginning in the late 1800s.
Cinotto explains how educators and other administrative authorities used food and nutrition to try and fold Italians into the American mainstream. At the time, the traditional foodways of those newly migrated from Italy clashed with the widely accepted scientific theories that considered an abundance of vegetables and scarce consumption of meat and dairy to not be conducive to an active and healthy life as a productive member of American society. However, Italian-Americans were not limited by an absolute respect of the customs form the old world. As Cinotto clarifies, "The symbolic and material 'stuff' from which ethnicity is created need not be rooted in an immemorial past to be authentic, but does need to be meaningful in the lived experiences of people in a group and useful in articulating the relations of power in which they are involved."
In the process of establishing an identity that could work in their new environment, food also played a role in building and enforcing borders and differences. Cinotto observed, "Ethnic traditions were created by family members drawing selectively on and recasting old values and cultural features as a result of new economic and social realities, including relations with neighboring ethnic groups and emerging ideas about race and morality."
Italians adopted the same behaviors that, in the past, had been used to discriminate them with the goal of underscoring the lack of civility and culture of fresh waves of newcomers, looking for a better future just like they did a few decades before.
Because of this, I really hope this book will be translated into Italian and become accessible to non-English speaking Italians. At this historical junction, Italy has become the destination for migrants from Eastern Europe, Africa and Asia. Despite the numbers are still quite limited, many Italians feel threatened in their cultural identity and economic privilege. As it often happens, food becomes the arena were these tensions are played out in everyday life. Grocery stores, stalls at the local markets, and ethnic restaurants opened and managed by immigrants are a source of suspicion. Their specialties and dishes may be fun for an occasional outing or for a party, but very little has been absorbed into the everyday diets of Italians.
Who knows, maybe a greater awareness of the discrimination Italians had to endure when they were immigrants would engender reflections about the current situation. And as the Italian economy struggles to recover from the Eurozone crisis, Italians are migrating again. We can only hope history won't repeat itself, this time around.

Getting a Seat Upgrade Is Worth the Effort – NYTimes.com
I HAVE been on a drive lately to encourage business travelers to get out of the back of the plane and move up to the better seats on long flights, even if it costs a little more.
This does not make me a popular fellow with corporate managers who set travel spending policies with a sharp and merciless eye. On the other hand, it does improve my standing (if not my seating) with the airlines, which have been aggressively promoting premium economy seats, which cost more for the extra legroom and better service.
Many business travelers fly under so-called managed travel programs that dictate which airline must be flown (companies often negotiate volume air travel discounts with specific carriers), and which fares must be booked. Usually, that means flying the cheapest available coach fare.
But not all business travelers are created equal, as noted in a report in February by the travel market research firm PhoCusWright. Among companies with formal managed-travel policies, "just under one-fourth (24 percent) of upper management and only 9 percent of executive leadership are required to comply" with the policy, the report said.
There are ways around strict travel policies. In last week's column, a frequent business traveler named Bill Catlette described his birthday present to himself in January: no more flying coach. He said he hasn't been in a coach seat all year.
I thought I'd return to Mr. Catlette this week for elaboration on his coach rebellion, and for some tips on how to push for more comfort.
The impetus for Mr. Catlette's birthday vow to avoid coach seats is simple enough. "It's bad and it's getting worse," he said. Airlines, he said, "are continuing, for the most part, to push the envelope, shrinking both seat pitch and width." Mr. Catlette and his business partner, Richard Hadden, run a leadership and training consulting company called Contented Cow Partners.
The two men have a new book with a mouthful of a title: "Contented Cows Still Give Better Milk, Revised and Expanded: The Plain Truth About Employee Engagement and Your Bottom Line" (John Wiley & Sons). The message is simple.
"The deal in the workplace has been changing radically for seven to eight years," Mr. Catlette said. "People are no longer loyal to the organization. It's become a lot more personal, and part of that change is that people are negotiating more with their employers on an individual basis."
Mr. Catlette explained what that has to do with persuading a travel manager that you should be able to buy a better airplane seat, even if it's just premium coach: "I think people, particularly those who feel that they're stronger performers, shouldn't be bashful about negotiating for that stuff. Don't get carried away and ask for first class on an international flight. But, yeah, ask for business class. Ask for premium coach. Make the point that, look, if I'm jammed back in seat 32E, I'm not going to be working on your stuff, and given the opportunity to work, I'd rather be working. And if it's a couple of hundred bucks more to give me hours of concentrated work time on a flight, that makes sense."
Most good managers listen carefully to travelers' suggestions, Mr. Catlette said. On the other hand, he added, "I run into enough travel managers who think they're paying out of their own pocket" and pinch pennies even when spending a little more makes sense.
And incidentally, if you're looking to move forward in the plane this summer on flights to Europe, bargains are popping up. British Airways, for example, has a sale ending Tuesday for round-trip business class between most of its departure cities in the United States and London, with fares starting at $2,012, including taxes and fees. In some cases, that's cheaper than regular coach fares. Virgin Atlantic has also sharply discounted its premium-cabin fares to London this summer, and some domestic carriers are promoting business-class sales to Europe.
As I suggested last week, many airlines have been emphasizing the better seats while making things less comfortable in basic coach. In May, for example, American Airlines flew a group of airline reporters and bloggers to Dallas to show off its renovated premium seating, including the luxurious business-class cabins on American's new wide body Boeing 777-300ERs that will begin flying internationally late this year, starting with flights between Dallas and São Paulo, Brazil, in December, and Dallas and London in January.
But largely unmentioned in the media gushing was that, while long-haul cabins are more splendid than ever, basic coach seating is becoming more cramped. American's 777-300ERs will have coach seats that are arranged in rows 10 across, compared with the nine-across rows that Cathay-Pacific, for example, flies on its own 777-300ERs.
Some travelers I hear from say they're avoiding air travel. They're fed up with coach seats, and the dearth of free upgrades that used to be common for elite-status fliers till airlines realized they could make more money selling those seats outright.
"How long do they think passengers will continue to put up with terrible conditions in the planes?" one frequent flier, Emilio F. Bandiero, told me. "I've taken to driving whenever I can. I'd rather drive 1,000 miles in the comfort of my car than sit in one of the shrink-wrap seats they now have."

Sally Buttifant, the former rail officer for the Mid Cheshire Community Rail Partnership has been honoured with an MBE (Member of Order of the British Empire) in the Queen's Birthday Honours List 2019.
This honour recognises the achievements and services of extraordinary people across the United Kingdom.
For nearly 10 years, Sally was community rail officer for the Mid Cheshire Line which connects Chester to Manchester via Northwich, Knutsford, Altrincham and Stockport.
Sally was recognised for her services to the railway and community in Cheshire.
John Oates, the chair of the Mid Cheshire Community Rail Partnership, said:
"The Mid Cheshire Community Rail Partnership would like to congratulate Sally on being honoured in the Queen's Birthday Honour List.
"This recognises the immense contribution Sally has made to our railways in Cheshire, to the communities alongside the Line and her work with other local organisations in Cheshire including the Samaritans.
"When Sally was rail officer, not only did she work tirelessly for the Mid Cheshire Line but also made a huge contribution to other railway lines in Cheshire.
"Nationwide, Sally was a board member of Association of Community Rail Partnership and was instrumental in setting up Women in Community Rail.
"Sally's achievements on the Mid Cheshire Line include many projects with our lineside partners which led to the Community Rail Partnership being named the best CRP in the country in 2015.
"Sally has made a real difference to our railways in Cheshire and this honour is truly deserved."
