The San Marcos High School Color Guard.
San Marcos High School’s (SMHS) Color Guard brought home several awards from the Marching Auxiliaries competition, held at Champion High School in Boerne on March 14.
The guard won the Best in Class award, a Superior Rating award and the Choreography Award. This was its first competition of the year. The team, known as the “Sport of the Arts” according to Color Guard Director Tami Klett, uses flags along with dance to add visual effects to SMHS’ marching band.
In the fall the guard performs with the band, while in the spring they compete in auxiliary competitions.
“SMHS has not had a color guard team in years,” said Klett, “and this is a great start to a new tradition. We are grateful to Kelly Rushfeldt, the high school arching band director, for implementing the addition of the color guard to the band.”
The SMHS Color Guard consists of Team Captain Angela Villegas, Brittany Basham, Ebony Brown, Jade Chavez, Melanie Gonzales, Emily Lombardo and Alisen Webster.
The color guard will hold a spring show on May 15, at 6:30 p.m., in the SMHS auditorium, where it will show off its award-winning moves.

Virtual reality. Body augmentation. Robot faces. It sounds like an image of the future.
Yet somehow David Vintiner’s photographs don’t feel futuristic. If anything, they feel remarkably mundane. The subjects may be lost in a virtual world, but they stand in familiar everyday settings, with wires trailing around them, and hands reaching into nothingness. They seem as earthbound as ever.
The images in the project I want to believe show people using technology to augment what their bodies can do – sometimes as a result of an injury or medical condition that limits them, and sometimes just for the hell of it. They also show researchers playing around with the human brain, robots that mimic human movement and emotion, and people who plan to freeze their bodies in the hope of coming back to life in the future.
Working with art director Gem Fletcher, Vintiner wanted to show how these activities are not confined to slick, corporate settings, but are going on “in people’s garages, at home, in universities… You see a lot of bits of gaffer tape and glue guns and things held together with wire. It brings it back down to earth. These are things that are happening now. These people are working on shaping the future of humanity now, in their rooms.”
“It’s the mindset that the human body is just a bag of chemicals”
Vintiner believes there’s a very specific mindset that drives the people in his portraits to do these things. “It’s the mindset that the human body is just a bag of chemicals,” he explains, “and therefore that you can write it down. It’s an algorithm, a formula. And if you can write it down, you can replicate it on a computer. You’re just listing out chemical reactions, essentially. Most people find that quite cold, because we’re not talking about the soul, as such, we’re talking about an algorithm.”
And yet – as the project’s title, I want to believe, suggests, it’s also about concepts like hope, and even faith. “We’ve always had this idea that transhumanism was a new form of religion,” says Vintiner. “Although all of the ideas are very forward-looking, they’re actually the ideas of ancient religion: rebirth, immortality, humans becoming gods… when you start looking for religious crossover, there’s a lot.”
From one point of view the images seem cold, but at the same time they’re “very emotional”, says Vintiner. There’s a melancholy about them, a sense of people yearning for something more. Vintiner says he admires many of the subjects of his photos. “Throughout history, science is littered with mavericks and outliers with ideas that seem outlandish to society at the time, but it’s these people who push people forward in the long run.”
“Some of these things will become reality, some will fall by the wayside, but without these outliers working outside the usual constraints we wouldn’t make the great leaps forward. It seems outlandish, but they’re willing to give it a go.”

The recent sudden death of Canadian-Indian relations on the floor of our House of Commons has all the hallmarks of a Justin Trudeau operation. Starting with the classic Canadian Jedi mind trick where we’re told we don’t need to see that information.
Also his capacity to seize the limelight regardless of the situation or consequences. But while the prime minister stunned Parliament with his assertion that “Canadian security agencies have been actively pursuing credible allegations of a potential link between agents of the Government of India and the killing of a Canadian citizen, Hardeep Singh Nijjar” calling something “credible” is no more conclusive than “creamy and delicious.”
Apparently the PM briefed Opposition Leader Pierre Poilievre privately. But Poilievre later said, “The prime minister hasn’t provided any facts. He provided a statement, and I will just emphasize that he didn’t tell me any more in private than he told Canadians in public. So we want to see more information.” Yes indeed.
Here in the offend-everyone spirit, let me say it could well exist. India is a democracy, albeit flawed. But even more rooted democratic regimes, or rogue agencies within them, sometimes undertake things like, say, blowing up a Greenpeace vessel, and the Indian government might well assassinate “Khalistani” separatists they consider terrorists. As some certainly are.
The incident is also vintage Trudeau in that for years Canadian security agencies have not been actively pursuing credible allegations of Chinese communist interference in our elections, or the prime minister has been brushing them aside when they do. Yet he shows no embarrassment in leaping on this issue in high dudgeon.
Instead, he exudes his usual emotionally convincing outrage. It’s not that he’s a convincing fake; it’s that he genuinely seems to regard all opposition or criticism as perverse and somehow disloyal, and it’s been one of his key political assets because many voters empathize with his sense of victimhood. But it’s surely wearing thin, especially given his repeated reckless lashing out at enemies, from fringe minorities to Alberta politicians to, now, New Delhi.
For one government to accuse another of murder on its territory is a serious breach of diplomatic etiquette. A man more willing to heed unwelcome advice would not have given that speech the way he did, especially since we need India as a counterweight to China, even if we feel no more sympathy for a wobbly democracy than a basic dictatorship.
As too often in public affairs, all parties seem determined to discredit themselves. India’s Ministry of External Affairs said, “Allegations of Government of India’s involvement in any act of violence in Canada are absurd and motivated.” Well, yes. Human actions normally are. The question is: motivated by what? And why do you sound like Radio Moscow?
Of course we can’t let foreign governments of any sort assassinate people in Canada. So for once can our prime minister step out of character and give us a straight account with evidence?

Changing land use
The amounts of nitrogen and phosphorus travelling off land into water depend to a large extent on how the land is used. In heavily forested areas, for instance, there are few animals producing nitrogen-rich urine and phosphorus-rich dung, while the tree roots hold the soil on the land. In areas dominated by pasture, especially dairy pasture, nutrient loss rates are much higher. Consequently, when land uses change, the amount of nitrogen and phosphorus lost from land to water also changes.
Much of the Commissioner’s work in this area has been based on the amalgamation of two models: Land Use in Rural New Zealand (LURNZ) and Catchment Land Use for Environmental Sustainability (CLUES).
The Commissioner revisited this aspect of water quality in a recent update report. That report contains new modelling information showing that land conversion to dairy farms has continued, but a predicted increase of forested land has not – and that is bad news for water quality.

"When white people catch a cold, Black people catch the flu," said LaDarius Price, community outreach specialist at Cempa Community Care. "That's the absolute reality for a lot of us."
Before the coronavirus pandemic, Price spent years working to address health inequalities in the community, such as access to fresh food and mental health care. His job, as he described it, was to help people who look like him have the same opportunities for healthy life as millions of other Americans.
Several Chattanooga ZIP codes, representing the most diverse parts of the city, rank among the lowest in the state for health outcomes.

- I had a culture column at WIRED. And then I didn’t. Here’s what happened. | monica byrne (May 19): “I’ve talked with other writers who’ve had experiences with Wired. My experience is not unique. So as far as I can tell, they don’t cover the future. They produce a white male fantasy of the future. Which isn’t surprising.”
- The Dehumanizing Myth of the Meritocracy by Coraline Ada Ehmke | Model View Culture (May 19): “We hide behind the motto of “love the art, hate the artist” to justify our preferences despite the faint voice of conscience, persistent in telling us that something is amiss. It seems that ignoring the worst of our heroes is easy, but should the opposite also hold true? Should we ignore the positive, community-oriented contributions of others as quickly as we dismiss some people’s negative attributes? Are the contributions of bad actors really superior to those who bring humane, non-code contributions to our corner of the world?”
- #girlswithtoys: women remind Twitter they are scientists too | Wired UK (May 18): “Female scientists from all over the world have taken to Twitter to post pictures of themselves with tools and equipment from their workplaces alongside the hashtag #girlswithtoys.”
- Furiosa (5) | Be Less Amazing (May 18): “I’ve seen a few internet pundits that they “don’t see the feminist content” of this film. Dudes. It’s about the lone powerful woman in a male-dominated society who helps a group of sex slaves escape under the premise that “[they] are not things.” That’s about as feminist as it gets, and that’s just one of the many amazing equality messages going on this movie. “
- The programming talent myth | LWN.net (April 28): “When we see someone who does not look like one of those three men, we assume they are not a real programmer, he said. Almost all of the women he knows in the industry have a story about someone assuming they aren’t a programmer. He talked to multiple women attending PyCon 2015 who were asked which guy they are there with—the only reason they would come is because their partner, the man, is the programmer. “If you’re a dude, has anyone ever asked you that?” On the other hand, when he got up on stage, he did look like those guys. “So you probably assumed I was a real programmer.” These sorts of assumptions contribute to the attrition of marginalized people in tech, he said.”

FLO Premieres New Song “Fly Girl” featuring Missy Elliott on BBC Radio 1
London-based girl group FLO, consisting of members Jorja Douglas, Stella Quaresma and Renée Downer, premiered a new song “Fly Girl” on BBC Radio 1's Future Sounds.
This time, the group joined forces with American rapper Missy Elliott for the song.
The song samples Missy Elliott's 2002 hit “Work It”.
The track was produced by MNEK, LiTek, and WhyJay. The accompanying music video was directed by Tajana Tokyo.
“'Fly Girl' is all about confidence, good vibes and feeling your best. It's a lively, feel good song that still incorporates clever lyrics and fire vocals, if we do say so ourselves,” FLO said of the song. “It's quite literally a perfect fusion of old school meets modern day R&B, with a nod to and feature from the original fly girl Missy Elliott herself. We love it and are so happy to be putting out a song that can hopefully make whoever plays it feel confident and most importantly, fly.”
- Missy Elliott added, “Working with Flo has been nothing less than amazing. I remember a few of their fans sent me clips of their performances, and I immediately felt the authentic '90s vibe. I loved the fact they all sang lead so well—great vocal control—so when I was asked to be a part of the 'Fly Gir' record, it was a no brainer. They used the inspiration from my song 'Work It,' and I felt they did it justice. I enjoyed it and I believe they have a long, great career ahead of them.”
FLO told Sian Eleri of BBC Radio 1, “Honestly. It was written on account mainly by MNEK and Jvck James. And I think MNEK came up with the idea of sampling. Interpolating in the Fly Girl from Missy. And then it just was born and then we like it's actually been through a lot of stages, like some of the verses in LA, and then another session we pulled in another bit for the ending. So it's a common journey.”
They said of the collaboration with Missy Elliott, “She's like the blueprint female rapper and not even just rapper like beyond that like icon, production, all of that stuff. She's really influenced like R&B. So had to get her on the song like what the hell could then have anyone else is not right. We were in the same FaceTime does literally playing it through FaceTime. And then we were like, obviously panicking because it was like, oh my god, we're finally listening to this. And then we heard her do the booty booty everywhere.”

This enormous bridge is one of the longest historic cantilever truss spans surviving in the United States today, with a main span of 1,200 feet. At the time of completion, this was the longest cantilever truss span in the United States. The bridge is also a rare and highly significant example of a fixed (non-movable) bridge designed by famous engineer Joseph Strauss, whose main claim to fame was the design of bascule bridges. Note that Strauss was listed as the chief engineer for the Golden Gate Bridge, but he in fact did very little of the design work. Perhaps Strauss played a larger role in the design of this bridge, however. This bridge is highly significant due to its span length, but it also is noted for its unusual design details, including member sizing that differs from that found on other cantilever truss bridges. For example the diagonal members adjacent to the main vertical posts are heavier in design than the main post itself. The overall shape of the cantilever truss is somewhat unusual as well. Careful observers will also find the bridge's numerous unused holes that were used as temporary pin connections for assisting in the construction and erection of the bridge.
This bridge continues to carry heavy traffic with numerous trucks as well in an industrial setting. Despite this the bridge retains excellent historic integrity with no major alterations. The physical condition of the bridge also appears to be very good. Hopefully this will continue to be the case given the significance of the bridge.
Joseph Strauss proposed a bridge of similar design for Port Huron, Michigan and Sarnia, Ontario, but it was rejected, likely in part due to an unusual approach configuration.
The steel stringer approaches and bents at the north end of the bridge were reconstructed ca. 1950. The new bents still retain a traditional riveted design with lacing and so despite not being original they still math the design and appearance of the bridge. However, the pin and hanger details of the steel stringers are a typical 1950s construction practice.

WATCH FULL VIDEO COURTESY Fasunle Makinde Descendants:


It is 9.36 a.m. when Mayor Peter Tschentscher steps up to the lectern of the Federal Council. He wears a red tie with a dark blue suit, matching the colors of Hamburg and the SPD. The speech was originally supposed to be his first major appearance after taking office as President of the Federal Council, but day-to-day business didn't allow for that.
The votes on the gas price brake and the dispute over citizen income pushed Tschentscher into the new role and responsibility of the office as early as mid-November. These are turbulent times, said the 56-year-old and added – as laconically as the people of Hamburg know him: “Sometimes decisions have to be made very quickly.”
In his inaugural speech on Friday, Tschentscher is primarily concerned with the challenges facing Germany and the world. The Russian President's aggression is shaking the European security order and calls for "quick decisions to take in refugees, to secure the energy supply and to avert damage caused by skyrocketing energy prices," stressed the Social Democrat in his twelve-minute speech.
He tries to fill the content of the motto "Open horizons" chosen for his presidency. Progress and change need "strength and motivation," and that "also has something to do with psychology and a positive mindset," he says. According to the First Mayor, the Hanseatic City of Hamburg stands for all of this.
The basis "for economic development, for growth and prosperity, for a good life for all citizens" has always been the willingness "to keep up with the times, to always break new ground". This is particularly important in times of crisis and upheaval. And bringing this mentality into the work of the Bundesrat is the contribution that Hamburg is making in the year of its presidency.
Tschentscher is the sixth mayor of the Elbe metropolis to take over the office of President of the Federal Council. It all started with Kurt Sieveking (CDU) in the mid-1950s. The SPD politicians Herbert Weichmann (1968/69), Hans-Ulrich Klose (1979/80) and Henning Voscherau (1990/91) followed, before Ole von Beust (CDU) held the presidency of the Federal Council in 2007.
Von Beust was particularly committed to ensuring that cooperation between the federal and state governments worked together. There was no room in the Bundesrat for party political games, he warned at the time.
This is where Tschentscher starts in his speech to the state chamber on Friday. Plenary debates are rarely the stuff of hot spots and headlines, but it's always worth listening. A "beneficial objectivity" determines the discourse, which sets it apart "from the increasingly confrontational discussion in public and social networks". "We should continue to cultivate this style," appealed Tschentscher, "as a counter-movement to the trend towards excitement and escalation."
This style is basically his style. His leadership, which is mostly based on facts, could help him in the office of President of the Bundesrat, even if he does not always meet with goodwill in Hamburg. According to the red-green Senate, some cannot deal with his penetratingly precise work and constant questions. Because Tschentscher tries to penetrate every topic down to the last detail, to dissect every problem, because he sees everything else as a sign of incompetence.
He is currently not said to have any federal political ambitions, not even because of his new role as President of the Federal Council. Tschentscher simply wants to help set the course for the federal government from the Elbe metropolis. It is also said from those close to the 56-year-old that Tschentscher would like to use his role as President of the Federal Council to emphasize the role of large cities and their potential.
In addition, comrades emphasize, the structures in Hamburg are much more closely linked due to the dual function as state and municipality, whether in politics, administration or science. Similar problems nationwide, for example in climate, energy and skilled labor issues, would become apparent more quickly in the city-state than in a rural area.
Hamburg is sometimes understood as "Bavaria of the North", as a functioning metropolis, according to the Senate, in which experience has shown that the opposition in the citizenry intervenes, for example on issues such as transport and infrastructure or the equipment of the courts and public prosecutor's office.
However, a current conflict within the Senate, in which the debate about the siltation of the Elbe is coming to a head, seems to be even more explosive. "The ninth fairway adjustment has finally failed," said the Greens parliamentary group leader in the citizenship, Dominik Lorenzen, these days. Now it is high time for a "sludge summit" at which "everybody is looking for a way out of this crisis and finding sensible solutions for large-scale shipping in the north."
In assessing the Elbe deepening, the Greens are clearly distancing themselves from their alliance partner, the SPD, who promptly countered in the form of parliamentary group leader Dirk Kienscherf: “The concept of adjusting the fairway has not failed, the federal government has not fulfilled its tasks more difficult.” This is “an absolute negligent handling". According to Kienscherf, Hamburg expects the federal government to finally carry out its tasks.
It will be a balancing act for Tschentscher to keep the coalition in Hamburg together in conflicts like this and to moderate the interests of the Bundesrat in the structure of the constitutional bodies. From a purely institutional point of view, however, not too much should be expected of him in his new role.
In any case, the sphere of influence of the President of the Bundesrat, who is elected by the Chamber of States from among the 16 Prime Ministers in a fixed order every year in November, is limited. The rotation always begins with the head of government of the most populous country. The tasks of the President of the Federal Council are less political and more representative.
Tschentscher will also invite to plenary meetings of the Federal Council in the next twelve months, chair them and notify the decisions. He also receives high-ranking delegations and represents the Federal Council in terms of protocol at home and abroad. Tschentscher is said to be considering trips to Poland, France and the USA in 2023.
And last but not least, according to Article 57 of the Basic Law, the President of the Bundesrat represents the Federal President if the latter is prevented from holding office or resigns prematurely. In terms of protocol, Tschentscher is fourth in the state after the Federal President, the Bundestag President and the Federal Chancellor, although there is no binding definition of the ranking of the constitutional organs in the Federal Republic.
It follows from this function, which is important in terms of protocol, that the President of the Federal Council and thus now Tschentscher does not speak for all federal states politically and in terms of content, especially not in difficult negotiations between the federal states and the federal government, such as this week on citizen income. The President of the Federal Council does not act as a kind of mediator, as there is a mediation committee in disputes.
Tschentscher is not in the chair there in his new role, but since Wednesday Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania's Prime Minister Manuela Schwesig (SPD) for the federal states and Lower Saxony's Bundestag member Hendrik Hoppenstedt (CDU).
In addition, the President of the Bundesrat differentiates himself in his office from the Chairman of the Prime Ministers' Conference, which is tailored to the heads of government. Tschentscher took on this function from 2018 to 2019 and attracted nationwide attention in the course of the pandemic when he informed the public about the corona rules alongside his successor Markus Söder (CSU) and Chancellor Angela Merkel (CDU). A role that the laboratory physician gladly accepted in order to strengthen the influence of science on politics.
It will be a challenging year for the President of the Federal Council, Peter Tschentscher is aware of this and, in addition to the Ukraine war and the effects of the pandemic, on Friday he described climate protection and digitization as a "Herculean task that demands a lot from us".
"We don't have much to lose," says the native of Bremen, the bad mood comes by itself. "As government officials, we have to counteract this with something positive." : It's about "courage and confidence that we in Germany, as the fourth largest economy in the world, that we can manage and even lead the major transformation processes with our economic strength, with scientific and technological excellence."

Personally, I like my cats with a full coat of sumptuous fur, but then again, I do not have allergies. If a hairless cat was my only sneeze-free option to have a cat as a companion animal, then an Elf cat would be an attractive option, as a cat is a cat, even sans fur! My husband, however, said, he thinks he may be allergic to any cat that looks like Yoda.

What is your personal definition of laughter or happiness?
June 9, 2010 11:03am CST
I've been to a lot of things just to simply talk thing out of it. In short, make up a good interaction between mylotters and network users. So I made some serious and indeed interesting topics to talk to... Now, i would like to ask this query: "What is your idea about happiness or laughter perhaps?" For me, happiness is a state of complete euphoria. I mean literally, being free from any worries or stress at all... Absolute happiness is a condition where an individual self-attainment. A state in which he/she can't ask anything more from what he/she already have in life... So again, What is your definition of happiness? ^_^
9 Jun 10
I agree with you,laughter is one can be literally outburst of emotion. Like watching a funny movie,or hearing jokes and having fun with friends. While happiness is an inner joy which you cannot express within yourself. It is undefined feeling of happiness,a simple joy that gives your life meaning and contentment.
10 Jun 10
Your definitely right... ^_^ But mind you, what is your best achievement which actually made yourself happy ? I mean there should be a good reason behind it i think? ^_^ If there is, just leave a post and it will be of great honor to read it...
9 Jun 10
Definition of Happiness : State when i don't have to think about the miseries of the world. when my mind feels that i am free to do what i want. Laughter : two types : Artificial and natural. One that comes out of our heart is natural.. One made up to make our friends happy is artificial.
14 Jun 10
hey,Marc,I can't agree with you more,for you already have a so exact definition of happiness.Yeah,indeed,happiness is thank for what you already own and happiness is give(to) ,unless you do thus or one can't be happy from the bottom of his/her heart.Good luck for your job-seeking!

Beaconsfield is set to invest about $2.7 million to expand and upgrade its recreation centre.
Last week, city council tabled a loan bylaw, which faces a Feb. 9 register, to launch the rec centre extension project, which was listed in its three-year capital program.
“We’re expanding the front (of the rec centre). We’re basically adding a second floor and there will be more room for people coming in. We’re kind of crowded with tournaments and things like this. There’s going to be a new reception room and offices upstairs,” said Mayor Georges Bourelle.
Unlike a sound wall for the south side of Highway 20, the mayor doesn’t anticipate heated debate over the loan bylaw for the rec centre upgrade.
“The rec centre is used by a lot of our people, whether it be for hockey or the pool. People are screaming all the time for more hours at the pool. We use the gym for all kinds of activities,” he said. “It’s really a community centre, so that kind of thing you don’t really hear a lot from residents. Now, there are some people who think we shouldn’t spend any money on anything.”
Once the loan bylaw is deemed approved, the city can place a call for public tender.
The extension of the rec centre, which was built in 1974, will add about 5,000 square feet of space over two floors. The timetable for this work has yet to be finalized as plans are still being prepared by architects. It’s anticipated the rec centre won’t have to close during renovations, as side entrances could be used as alternatives.
Other improvements planned for the centre include renovating the front desk as well as the canteen area on the mezzanine, adding new bathrooms, updating emergency exits, installing a sprinkler system and improving wheelchair access, according to city officials.
Meanwhile, Beaconsfield has tabled other loan bylaws for infrastructure projects that are also subject to registers Feb. 9. About $1.2 million is being borrowed to repair road structures near the Elm Ave. and Beaurepaire Drive viaducts, about $1.2 million will be earmarked to convert street lamps to light emitting diode (LED) lighting, $470,000 is for the construction of a waste-water pump station on Gables Court and about $4.7 million is for the rehabilitation of water and sewage pipes.

During blind judging, the panelists worked to identify the most innovative and creative concepts, the strongest executions, and the highest quality in messaging. Winners were selected in a broad scope of categories, from broadcast and print to social media and emerging platforms.

ATLANTA (WMSN) -- A U.S. government survey reports that 1 in 4 women say they were hit hard, kicked or otherwise violently attacked by their intimate partners.
The telephone survey, conducted in 2010, offers some startling new numbers about domestic violence.
One expert called the report's estimate than 1 in 5 U.S. women had been raped or the victim of attempted rape "extremely high." But advocates say rape has been vastly under-reported in the past and the new numbers are plausible.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention released the study Wednesday. It's based on a survey of about 9,000 women.

Deportations and New Mexico: Will it happen here?
Rep. Michelle Lujan-Grisham, a Democrat, will meet with Thomas Homan, acting director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Washington, D.C., Tuesday in response to recent immigration raids in several states.
An ICE spokesperson confirmed agents arrested 680 undocumented immigrants in Los Angeles, Chicago, Atlanta, Texas and New York.
In a statement, Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly said the operations have been happening for years, but added that the agency is clear on its mission from President Donald Trump to remove undocumented immigrants who pose a public safety threat.
ICE officials said 75 percent of those deported in the past two weeks were criminals. Lujan-Grisham addressed the deportations Monday in an interview with ABC News.
“This is not a national security issue, this feels more like a huge shift in policy to get to ‘I want to deport 11 million people,’ and we're going to do everything in our power to stop that,” said Lujan-Grisham.
The Mexican Consulate in Albuquerque confirmed there have been no immigration raids in New Mexico.
People in the immigrant community in New Mexico fear the raids could happen here.
“As an immigrant, I know how it feels waiting for the "migra" (ICE) to come and take you away,” said Roberto Sanchez who lives in Santa Fe with his wife and three children.
ICE officials said it does not disclose where future operations will be.

To file your Self Assessment, you first need to register with HMRC to tell them you need to submit a tax return. You can register by going to https://www.gov.uk/register-for-self-assessment . You can register either online, by phone or by post (by completing form SA1)
Do I need to complete a Self Assessment?
Self Assessments are for anyone who receives income that is not taxed “at source”. In the case of a sole trader, the income you receive via your invoices does not have National Insurance contributions or Income Tax subtracted from it, so you must tell HMRC about that income on your Self Assessment so they can calculate what, if any, tax you owe.
Other example of income not taxed “at source” includes rental income from any property you may own or income from abroad.
If you are the director of a limited company you must complete a Self Assessment. Freelancers who have incorporated must file too!
When do I have to register?
The registration deadline is October 5th following the tax year for which you wish to submit a return.
For example, if you went freelance and set up your own business in June 2014, you would need to submit a Self Assessment for that tax year, which runs from 6th April 2014 until 5th April 2015. To submit that Self Assessment, you would need to register by October 5th 2015,
When you come to submit your financial information through the Self Assessment Online portal, having an organised stack of paperwork (or better yet a swanky online accounting system) can save your heaps of time and stress.
Before you start, here is a small selection of the financial records you should have to hand when you go to complete your Self Assessment. Many of these will not apply depending on the complexities of your finances; and this is not an exhaustive list (just a selection of the most common items).
If you are a sole trader, this means all your invoices & business related expenses.If you are a sole trader, this means all your invoices & business related expenses.
If you are running your own limited company and draw money from your business with a salary / dividend split, this will apply. You will need all the vouchers for dividends issued in the relevant tax year.
Details of any income your received through a Partnership.
Information on interest on things like loans and credit cards is needed, so get the relevant statements from your provider.
Own rental property? You’ll need details of all the income you’ve made through it in the previous tax year. Extra points if you receive your rental income into a separate bank account for ease of organisation.
Receiving any income from overseas? Keep the details handy
What does Payment on Account means?
This means payments towards your next year’s tax bill – these will count against your income current tax year.
P11Ds are to inform HMRC of any benefits claimed by employees. If you have one for the last tax year, you’ll need it!
If you’ve made any profits disposing of things like rental property or shares, have these details handy too.
If in doubt, speak to a specialist
If you have a complicated financial setup, it can be well worth the money to engage a specialist to complete your Self Assessment rather than risk messing it up and paying higher taxes! It might be time to find yourself a good accountant.

here's the video of Fraser Anning saying "the final solution to the immigration problem, of course, is a popular vote" pic.twitter.com/n6ohvUW6Vp— Josh Butler (@JoshButler) August 14, 2018
A newly appointed Australian lawmaker had the audacity to suggest the “final solution” for what he deems is a Muslim immigration problem in the country.
Queensland senator Fraser Anning recently joined unabashed nationalist Bob Katter’s Australian Party and said the racially charged comment during his maiden speech to the Upper House of Parliament.
“We as a nation are entitled to insist that those who are allowed to come here predominantly reflect the historic European-Christian composition of Australian society,” he said. “While all Muslims are not terrorists, certainly all terrorists these days are Muslims, so why would anyone want to bring more of them here?”
“The final solution to the immigration problem of course is a popular vote,” he added.
The term “final solution” refers to the Nazi plan for the extermination of Jews during World War II and resulted in the Holocaust that witnessed the killing of 2.7 million Jewish men, women and children and two-thirds of the Jewish population of Europe.
Also, the statement that all terrorists are Muslims is completely untrue.
The speech was quickly condemned by Australia’s top politicians.
Well said Alan. Australia is the most successful multicultural society in the world built on a foundation of mutual respect. We reject and condemn racism in any form. https://t.co/RHslbs1FNs— Malcolm Turnbull (@TurnbullMalcolm) August 14, 2018
Minister for the Environment and Energy Josh Frydenberg, who is Jewish and had relatives who lost their lives during the Nazi regime’s genocide, said Anning’s words were “extremely ignorant, hurtful, divisive and unacceptable.”
“Fraser Anning should not only retract his comments last night but he should also immediately go and visit a holocaust museum and hear first hand from survivors how raw the pain is and hear about and see the destruction and devastation caused by the Nazi killing machine,” he said. “Ten million people lost their lives to the Nazis, six million of whom were Jews, 1.5 million of whom were children. Fraser Anning is a father. You can’t utter those words in the Parliament without understanding the consequences and ramifications.”
Labor Party Senate leader Penny Wong said Anning’s words “did not reflect Australian values,” she told reporters. “It reflected a time we have moved on from and it reflected division and prejudice.”
MP Graham Perrett called Anning a “myopic red-neck reaching out from another time to another people.”
My statement about the first speech from a Queensland senator. pic.twitter.com/89YgMUzKc4— Graham Perrett (@GrahamPerrettMP) August 14, 2018
Dvir Abramovich, head of Australia’s Anti-Defamation Commission, said “Invoking terminology from the darkest and most unique tragedy in human history cheapens and taints this important debate. This is historical trivialization of the worst kind imaginable.”
However, Anning is not at all abashed at his words, claiming “he didn’t think about that funnily enough” when asked about his comments about the term “final solution.”
He also pointed out his support for Israel to The Guardian.
“It is ironic that those on the left such as the Greens and some Labor who seek to criticize me are the same people who refused to support my efforts to stop Australia funding the Palestinian Authority who finance terrorist attacks against innocent Israeli women and children,” the statement read.
Bob Katter, the head of Anning’s party whose grandfather was Maronite Christian from Lebanon, said he stands by his colleague “1000 percent.” Of the Hitler-esque speech, Katter said it was “solid gold.”
“You don’t have to be Albert Einstein to see that we, as a race of people, we Australians, are being buried by a mass migration program to line the pockets of the rich and powerful,” said Katter in a bizarre, hate-mongering interview. “We do not want people coming in from the Middle East or North Africa unless they’re the persecuted minorities. Why aren’t you bringing in the Sikhs? Why aren’t you bringing in the Christians? Why aren’t you bringing in the Jews?”
One Nation leader, Pauline Hanson, has distanced herself from Anning, who originally entered parliament through her party, and said his speech was “straight from Goebbels’ handbook from Nazi Germany.” But her comments came after politicians started comparing her to Anning.
It should be noted that Hanson herself has called Islam “a disease,” has said South Africans brings AIDS and Asians are “swamping” Australia.

Ashley Knecht will play works by Robert Schumann, Miklós Rózsa, Pierre Gabaye and Aaron Copland during her performance at the Arizona Senior Academy on Tuesday.
The clarinet, that prominent member of the woodwind section of orchestras and bands throughout the world, will be the featured instrument when the young musician appears for a lunchtime concert.
The instrument, which has been around for nearly 300 years, is the well-known “licorice stick” that Benny Goodman and others made popular during the Jazz Era of the 1930s and ’40s and remains a respected solo, ensemble and orchestral musical instrument.
Knecht has joined the 36,932 other students at the University of Arizona where she is a graduate student of Professor Jerry Kirkbride. UA students hail from every state in the union and from 122 foreign countries, but Knecht is one of the very few who can claim roots in Pelican Rapids, Minn. After receiving her public school education there, Knecht went on to study instrumental music education at Minnesota State University in Moorhead. There she was principal clarinetist with the University Symphony Orchestra and Wind Ensemble. She is now working on her master’s degree in Clarinet Performance at the University of Arizona.
Knecht’s program next week features works by Robert Schumann, the “Sonatina for Clarinet” by Miklós Rózsa, the “Sonatine” by Pierre Gabaye and Aaron Copland’s “Clarinet Concerto.” She will be accompanied on the piano by Woan Ching Lim.

In what is being billed as the first-of-its-kind collaboration via the Internet, a group of marketers two weeks ago published The Age of Conversation, a book that offers advice on ways businesses can engage consumers through conversation -- in short: "shaddup already... and listen more."
The 103 authors are marketing types and bloggers (including me), each of whom contributed a 400-word essay. Hailing from 24 states and 10 nations, the contributors were brought together (virtually) by Drew McLellan, who heads McLellan Marketing Group in Des Moines, Iowa, and Gavin Heaton, who works at a marketing agency, Creata, in Sidney, Australia. Appropriately enough, the two guys have never met. In fact, with the exception of a single, garbled Skype exchange, they've never even spoken, trade pub Ad Age points out.
So a bunch of authors who've never met collaboratively publish a book, with the help of two guys who, by the way, have also never met. Here's why else this book is cool:
1. It explores how the business of marketing is changing. If Madison Avenue spent much of the last century using one-way communication to push toothpaste and soap and Cheetos at people -- and spent most of its energy controlling the chatter -- it's time that companies now "grab some humility and learn the art of conversation," contributor Ed Cotton counsels. Adds Faris Yakob, a senior strategist at Naked Communications in London: Companies need to loosen their grip on consumer creativity; let consumers dig your brand -- or not -- on their terms.
"The marketing industry is abuzz about how the citizen marketers are changing the landscape. This book captures that new phenomenon," Drew says.
2. It explores how communication is changing. Social media like this blog and others, podcasts, wikis, and so on mean that a single soul has the potential to influence many. Everyone has a voice and ability to influence. On my page, I write, "The thing is... in this Age of Conversation, one exchange has the potential to influence many. Anyone can be a maven. Or a connector."
3. Readers can yak back. I'm imagining that it's easy for readers to feel overwhelmed by the admonishments throughout the "Age of Conversation" to lighten up... open up... shut up... listen... blog... embrace. But readers of the book can talk back. This wouldn't be the age of conversation otherwise, right?
4. All proceeds go to charity. The book is available in a downloadable e-version and in hardcover and softcover. All proceeds will be donated to Variety, the international children's charity.

Posts tagged ‘mural’

This is a mural I did as a teenager – in my old bedroom. Quite a feat looking back. I loved Paris and someone taught me how to blow up an image, well, my favourite picture of the place by M. Fegendrey, Place du Tertre, a rainy evening in spring, (summer?) got the treatment. It’s just a tiny bit kitch, but I like it. I can’t show it looking pristine, it’s the wall of an office now, hence junk (sorry). The point is, as I did with theatrical scene painting years later, I can blow things up.
September 15, 2011
This mural predates the current fashion for fish that nibble your feet to remove hard skin. I was given carte blanche to create an interesting loo, so I went for the sensation that while you were sitting there curious orange fish were intrigued by your toes. Apparently it was a bit unsettling for some guests.

Red Eared Sliders are one of the most commonly kept turtles as pets. They are friendly, active, and easy to take care of. However, as with any pet, it is important to know how to properly care for them. One of the questions that people often ask is, how long can Red Eared Sliders go without food? In this article, we will explore the answer to this question and provide you with some helpful tips on how to care for your Red Eared Slider.
Understanding the Eating Habits of Red Eared Sliders
Red Eared Sliders are omnivorous turtles, which means that they eat both meat and plants. In the wild, they eat a variety of foods such as insects, fish, and aquatic vegetation. As pets, they are commonly fed pellets, insects, fruits, and vegetables.
One thing to keep in mind is that Red Eared Sliders are opportunistic feeders, which means that they will eat whenever they have the opportunity to do so. This can lead to overfeeding, which can cause health problems such as obesity and digestive issues.
How Long Can Red Eared Sliders Go Without Food?
Red Eared Sliders can go without food for several weeks or even months, depending on their age and overall health. However, it is important to note that this is not ideal for their health and should only be done in certain circumstances.
For example, if you need to leave your Red Eared Slider for a few days or even a week, they will be fine without food. However, if you plan on being away for an extended period of time, it is recommended to have someone come over and check on your turtle and feed them.
Factors That Affect How Long Red Eared Sliders Can Go Without Food
There are several factors that can affect how long Red Eared Sliders can go without food:
- Age: Younger turtles need to eat more often than older turtles.
- Size: Larger turtles can go longer without food than smaller turtles.
- Health: Turtles that are sick or have underlying health issues may not be able to go as long without food.
- Temperature: Turtles that are kept in cooler temperatures may not be able to go as long without food.
Tips for Feeding Your Red Eared Slider
Here are some tips to help you properly feed your Red Eared Slider:
- Feed them a variety of foods: Red Eared Sliders need a balanced diet that includes both meat and plants. Offer them a variety of foods such as pellets, insects, fruits, and vegetables.
- Feed them the right amount: Be sure to feed your Red Eared Slider the right amount of food. Overfeeding can lead to health problems such as obesity and digestive issues.
- Provide them with a balanced diet: Supplement their diet with calcium and other vitamins to ensure they are getting all the nutrients they need.
- Use a feeding dish: Use a feeding dish to help prevent your Red Eared Slider from ingesting gravel or other substrate.
Red Eared Sliders can go without food for several weeks or even months, but this is not ideal for their health. It is important to provide them with a balanced diet and feed them the right amount of food to ensure they stay healthy. If you plan on being away for an extended period of time, make sure to have someone come over and check on your turtle and feed them if necessary.

Swoon-worthy “Sasaki and Miyano: The Graduation” to Stream on September 28
The first season of Sasaki and Miyano ended on a heartwarming note and left us with tingling feelings. At the same time, when the fans were waiting for the next installment of the series, a new movie was announced.
The Graduation film was initially premiered in Japan on February 17, 2023. However, it wasn’t available for fans outside of Japan until now. Crunchyroll finally announced the release date, putting us out of our misery. And here’s everything you need to know.
Crunchyroll announced that it will stream Sasaki and Miyano: Graduation, the new anime film based on Shō Harusono’s Sasaki and Miyano manga, on September 28 at 8:00 p.m. EDT worldwide.
The film failed to enter the top 10 list but captured the hearts of many BL fans.
All the staff members from the anime series returned for the Sasaki and Miyano: Graduation movie. Shinji Ishihira directed the film at Studio DEEN.
This film is set after the original series, where Sasaki and Miyano confess their feelings for each other. The finale gave us their first kiss, leaving many fans screaming and gasping for air.
The new anime film will focus on the titular characters navigating the next phase of their relationship. Sasaki is now preparing to graduate from high school, but this new tide will test the connection of this adorable pair.
The two must figure out how to make their relationship work as Sasaki starts a new life away from his boyfriend. Well, if it is Sasaki and Miyano, we are pretty sure they will surely figure something out.
While Sasaki and Miyano have become our beloved characters, the side story about Hirano and Kagiura also demands equal attention. The movie will show how these two spend time together inside the school and dorm.
“Sasaki and Miyano” is a rare show that did not depend on heavy fan service to depict the love between the couple. They instead made us swoon with the little moments and filled our hearts with joy.
I am sure the new film will also take our hearts with the budding love stories. This movie is truly a blessing for us BL fans. Let’s wait a little more to witness this heartwarming love story.
About Sasaki and Miyano

JWT to pick up majority stake in Mindset Advertising
Mumbai: Global advertising network JWT, part of WPP Plc, is acquiring a majority stake in Mindset Advertising Private Ltd, the Hyderabad-based agency that’s an associate of the company taking control of it.
Colvyn Harris, chief executive of JWT India, said that some acquisitions are made with an eye toward future potential.
“Hyderabad figures as one of the most promising cities in JWT’s growth plans and the integration of Mindset into our global operations gives clients in the city access to the best of what JWT has to offer worldwide," Harris said. “It also gives them access to the services of our family of specialist companies in various communications-related fields, including media planning and buying, digital communications, activation, public relations and market research."
JWT has worked closely with Mindset on several clients including Bharti Airtel, he said. Buying a stake was a natural extension, he said.
Harris said JWT India will consider more acquisitions in the specialized communications space -- digital design etc.
“We are open to whatever will enhance our current offering. We are always on the lookout for vision, skill capabilities and talent," Harris said. “We had acquired Encompass earlier."
Santha John, who founded the agency will head the JWT Hyderabad operation. Mindset’s clients include information technology, education, health-care and infrastructure companies.
“We have been reputed to be ‘the best advertising brains in Hyderabad, under one roof’ and that, of course, will continue with our leadership team of Ram Gedela, chief executive officer, Anvar Alikhan, director , creative, and Mark Samuel, AVP and senior creative director, firmly in place," John said. “With full access to JWT’s global resources, we now look forward to being able to offer our clients in Hyderabad an even higher level of service."
Arvind Sharma, chairman, Leo Burnett, said that it’s a good addition to JWT India in terms of people but was a huge question mark on the potential of Hyderabad as a market.
Andhra Pradesh is currently in the grip of an agitation for the creation of a separate Telangana state and the eventual status of Hyderabad isn’t clear yet.

After months of speculation, it is official.....the National Games are coming to Trivandrum!
The Indian Olympic Committee formally announced a few days ago that the 35th National Games will be held in Kerala. With Trivandrum being the capital, it will host most if not all the events, as is customary.
With extensive sports facilities already in place, including football and athletic stadiums, Kerala's largest indoor stadium, two olympic size swimming pools and the top tennis club in the state, Trivandrum's a natural choice.
But the Government is planning a games village which will have sporting facilities such as a brand new main stadium as well as residential and social facilities for the athletes.
Stay tuned for more on this in the days to come!
