National Coalition of STD Directors
Washington, D.C. – The National Coalition of STD Directors (NCSD) applauds FDA approval of Gardasil 9, an HPV vaccine developed by Merck that protects against nine types of HPV. This nine-valent vaccine improves upon the Merck Vaccines’ current quadrivalent vaccine by providing protection from five additional types of HPV and preventing approximately 90 percent of cervical, vulvar, vaginal, and anal cancers as well as providing protection from two types of HPV that cause approximately 90 percent of genital warts cases.
“The development and approval of the nine-valent HPV vaccine is a major advancement in preventing the transmission of HPV. With this vaccine, virtually eradicating cervical, anal, and other genital cancers as well as genital warts within a generation is possible if actual scale up in vaccination occurs,” stated William Smith, Executive Director of NCSD.
HPV causes 90 percent of cervical cancer which is the third most common type of cancer among women worldwide. In addition, HPV also causes 90 percent of anal cancers and 70 percent of vaginal and vulvar cancers. Gardasil 9 will provide protection from seven cancer-causing types of HPV (16, 18, 31, 33, 45, 52, and 58) that cause approximately 90 percent of cervical, vulvar, vaginal, and anal cancers and two types of HPV that cause approximately 90 percent of genital warts cases (6, and 11). Gardasil 9 adds protection against five additional HPV types (31, 33, 45, 52 and 58) which cause approximately 20 percent of cervical cancers and are not covered by previously FDA-approved HPV vaccines.
Despite the high rates of HPV-related disease in the United States, including cervical cancer and genital and perianal warts, previous rollouts of the HPV vaccine have been less than adequate and missed a major public health opportunity to decrease the burden of cervical cancer and other adverse HPV-disease outcomes. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports that approximately 360,000 people in the United States get genital warts each year. In addition, in 2011, there were approximately 12,000 new cases of cervical cancer in the United States and 4,000 deaths from the disease. The CDC also estimates that about 3,000 new cases of HPV-associated anal cancers are diagnosed in women and about 1,700 are diagnosed in men each year in the United States.
FDA approved Gardasil 9 for use in females ages 9 through 26 and males ages 9 through 15. Current CDC HPV vaccination recommendations, while needing to be updated with the release of Gardasil 9 as they reference the Gardasil quadrivalent vaccine, underscore the importance of scaling up HPV vaccination in both females and males. Currently, the CDC recommends routine HPV vaccination for females and males age 11 or 12 years, and catch-up vaccination for females ages 13-26 and males ages 13-21 years if not previously vaccinated. A 2013 report showed that girls aged 13 -17 who received the recommended vaccine doses to be a mere 37.6 percent. For boys aged 13-17, those receiving the recommended vaccine doses was just 13.9 percent.
“We call on all providers seeing patients eligible for this vaccine, including NCSD’s member state and local health departments STD programs doing clinical service delivery, to scale up their implementation of the HPV vaccine,” stated Smith. “Additionally, policy and educational efforts that further HPV prevention must be undertaken. We have simply lost too much time already in our fight against HPV and with an improved vaccine, there is a renewed urgency to act and act now,” concluded Smith.
NCSD has a long history working to advance prevention, testing, and treatment of HPV disease, including a survey that is currently in the field assessing HPV related activities in safety net clinics. In 2013, NCSD and the American Sexual Health Association (ASHA) convened two meetings of stakeholders from the HPV, immunization, and sexual health fields to brainstorm potential policy actions to enhance HPV disease awareness with a particular focus on scaling up vaccination rates.
In addition, in 2012, NCSD produced an easy to use guide for health care providers about external genital warts (EGWs), a commonly occurring outcome of HPV infection, titled “Straight Talk: Counseling Patients about Extra Genital and Perinatal Warts.” NCSD has additional materials highlighting how STD programs can increase awareness of HPV disease and promote the HPV vaccine: “STD Programs: Increasing HPV Disease Awareness through Collaboration & Innovation” and “How your STD program can promote the HPV Vaccine” which are available on NCSD’s website.
The National Coalition of STD Directors (NCSD) is a partnership of public health professionals dedicated to promoting sexual health through the prevention of STDs. NCSD provides dynamic leadership that strengthens STD Programs by advocating for effective policies, strategies,and sufficient resources by increasing awareness of the medical and social impacts of STDs.For more information, visit www.NCSDDC.org.

Carolina Henriques, co-founder of London-based photography project Stories for Change, felt that post-Brexit immigrants in the UK are more connected to their European identity.
The Portuguese Carolina HenriquesCo-Founder of Photography Project “Stories for Change”In London, since Brexit, immigrants to the United Kingdom are thought to be more attached to their European identity.
This is one of the observations made during the joint Hungarian-German work Linda NagyAbout the journeys of European Union (EU) citizens living in the British capital.
The project began with a desire to “explore something on an identity level through photography,” Henriques told Lusa Institute.
Together with Nagy, he met through a program of the same name of the organization 3 millionIt launched a plea for volunteers to take photographs, representing Europeans in England.
The aim is to better understand the lived experiences of EU citizens living in London and to represent them through relevant objects, places and spaces, and seek to tell their stories through photographs that seek to understand the experiences.
“We divided the photos into travel, belonging and identity. “We want to show why people come to the UK to study or work.”Carolina Henriques, who works with the Red Cross to support migrants, explained.
Out of 33 volunteers, they selected six, focused on London for financial and logistical reasons, and after brief interviews, they photographed the objects and locations indicated.
Instead of portraits, the images show different elements like passports, books, food, country of origin or a favorite restaurant in London and landmarks of the city.
In some cases, nationality, gender or occupation are mentioned, but names and faces are omitted.
“We went where people told us to go when they were available. Some came with us or we suggested the place. The final product was ours, we took the photos and edited them,” he said. said the Portuguese woman.
From these interactions, Henriques and Nagy, migrants take on multiple identities, both country of origin and host country.
“After all, after Brexit, we’ve seen a greater connection to European citizenship. People cling to it a bit more because they have to go through more bureaucracy.”He recalled.
Carolina Henriques and Linda Nagy wanted to voice immigrants as human beings, countering the negative narratives promoted by some politicians and the media.
“Some participants, but not all, shared experiences of discrimination, and we saw this in participants with less specialized jobs, less English language skills, and more opportunities to be exploited,” Henriques said.
The project resulted in an exhibition with a text telling the story in their own words through a series of photographs and quotes shared by each of the six individuals.
The exhibition has already featured in the British Parliament and at various events related to relations between the United Kingdom and the European Union.
The Portuguese said they wanted to “continue the exhibition and take it to other places outside London”.

A New Look At The Soybean
Great--but not a Panacea
Charles R. Attwood, M.D., F.A.A.P.
he soybean, judging from comments by my colleagues, patients and readers, seems to have attained the status of a matinee idol -- almost always the hero. Occasionally, and not unexpectedly with its constant aura of mystique, it has been cast in the role of a villain. Stardom didn't come overnight for this mainstay of the Asian diet, which was considered by the ancient Chinese to be one of the five sacred grains, along with rice, wheat, barley, and millet. It dates back to 2838 B.C. in China, the 6th century in Japan, and the 17th century in Europe. The United States became interested, despite its bland flavor, in the 1920s, when its full nutrient value and inexpensive production were finally appreciated. Now our country grows one-third of the total world supply, mostly for livestock feed and non-food commercial products.
Surprisingly, only 2 percent is destined for human consumption, in the form of soybean oil, tempeh, miso, tofu, soy milk, soy flour, soy sauce and the dried bean. Fresh soybeans are not generally available except in Asian markets or specialty produce markets in late summer and early fall.
The soybean may have been a lifesaver at times in world history when calories were inadequate. Examples were the POWs of World War II, and more recently, the residents of Cuba during the 34 year embargo. In both instances, the soybean was credited with preventing starvation and death. Its value is no less in calorie-rich societies, such as the United States and most Western countries, where soybeans, like oat bran, have been shown to reduce cholesterol levels when replacing animal proteins in the diet. This is probably due to its richness in soluble fiber and the fact that it replaces some of the saturated fat in the diet.
Because of its high protein content, many individuals have been under the impression that a proper plant-based diet must include soy products, in combination with other "less complete" protein sources. Unfortunately, in this respect, the famous bean has probably frightened away some individuals who would have benefited from a meatless diet. Patients in my clinic often say that the prospect of rounding out their daily menu with tempeh or tofu is less than appetizing.
Vegetarianism, in general, may have been somewhat tainted by this soy association for decades. Francis Moore Lapee, in her 1971 groundbreaking book, Diet for a Small Planet, dispelled the myth that meat was needed for complete proteins. Her solution -- carefully combining vegetable proteins -- she said in the 1991 edition, "reinforced another myth." Now, she said, "If people are getting enough calories, they are virtually certain of getting enough protein." Her sample plant-based menu, which exceeded the protein requirements of the National Academy of Sciences, contained no soy products.
She was right; in recent years it has been found that such careful food-combining isn't necessary. This best-seller -- over 3 million and still going -- also popularized the concept that fermented soy products, such as tempeh and miso contained significant amounts of vitamin B12. But more recent assays show that this is an inactive B12 analogue, not utilized as the vitamin in human consumption; and according to some investigators, may block actual B12 metabolism.
Suzanne Havala, M.S.,R.D., author of the American Dietetic Associations's position paper on vegetarian diets and the new book, Shopping For Health, recently told me, "It isn't necessary that people who dislike miso, tofu, or tempeh have to eat them or other soy products in order to get adequate quality proteins. Havala agrees that a variety of plant matter will do as long as the individual consumes enough calories.
"Soy products," she said, "on the other hand, are nutrient-dense and a very good choice." She adds that their taste has improved in recent years and she doesn't personally consider them bland. So like any legume, the soybean is nutrient-packed, but unlike other beans, there may be a few caveats to consider before eating unlimited amounts of soy products. First, in my practice, I have found that allergies to the soybean are far more common than to other legumes. Newborn infants seem to tolerate commercial soy formulas very well, but according to the American Academy of Pediatrics, this early exposure may be causing some of the soy allergies I'm now seeing in in older children and adults. Pediatric allergist, Brent Prather, of Lafayette, Louisiana, agrees. He tells me he sees far more soy allergies in children than his pediatrician father did before commercial soy formulas came into common use in the 1960s. Second, soybeans are 60 percent oil and a significant, source of fat that can add as much as 9 grams per serving (one-half cup cooked beans or a three and one-half ounce block of tofu) -- one-sixth of it is saturated. When combined with other ingredients in American dishes, soy typically adds about 5 grams of fat per serving.
And finally, some recent reports suggest that precipitated soy products, such as tofu, if consumed regularly, may inhibit the absorption of such minerals as calcium, magnesium, iron, and especially zinc.
The word "soybean" on a food label doesn't always mean good nutrition. Often, the opposite may be the case. Soybean oil is used in hundreds of processed foods, especially snacks, salad dressings, and margarines, in a partially hydrogenated form made more saturated by adding hydrogen atoms. This altered version, known as a trans fatty acid, is everywhere, Graham crackers, Ginger Snaps, even SnackWell's. Like natural saturated fat, it appears to raise cholesterol levels, but also lowers HDL. Here, one should watch the ingredient portion of food labels -- hydrogenated oils are not identified alongside total and saturated fat.
In summary, even though the soybean is an excellent source of protein and fiber, and a good choice, it's no panacea and isn't mandatory for a well-balanced, plant-based diet. Complete, high-quality vegetable protein is assured by a variety of vegetables eaten within one day -- not necessarily in one meal--assuming adequate calories are consumed. So keeping in mind its fat content, proneness to allergy, and possible interference with mineral absorption, let's say that a moderate consumption, along with a variety of vegetables and other legumes, would be prudent for both children and adults.

It appears that several contemporary medications for anxiousness are synthetic and also a recent clinical test showed that people taking these medications were as anxious or a lot more nervous than they had actually been when the medications initially started to be utilized. This has actually led several to wonder if there is a better way of managing this trouble. Besides, when you are taking medicine for an illness you anticipate it to make you really feel much better as well as aid you get rid of the issue. Yet with the brand-new course of medications called antidepressants the results seem to be that stress and anxiety, anxiety and various other troubles are even worse than they utilized to be.
So can cannabidiol be utilized for anxiety? There is much to take into consideration around. One of the most fascinating things to keep in mind is that there is now excellent evidence that cannabidiol, also known as CBD can in fact battle the signs of clinical depression. In a recent double blind research study carried out at the University of Toronto it was located that CBD not only protected against the develop of a chemical substance in the brain called neuroleptics, but it likewise acted to reverse the adverse effects of the accumulate.
So can cannabidiol be made use of for anxiety? The response is yes. It may take a bit much longer for the advantages to emerge however there is certainly a lot of appealing evidence that shows it can be utilized for dealing with stress and anxiety and also improving rest patterns.
In the current dual blind research done at the University of Toronto it was discovered that CBD slowed down the develop of a chemical called serotonin in the brain which has an influence on state of mind and stress and anxiety. What are this chemical and also how does it influence our state of minds and stress and anxiety levels? It is a neurotransmitter chemical called serotonin. This is normally discovered in the brain as well as when levels are down it causes us to feel sad as well as stressed. However when they are high, it makes us feel good. It is this link in between state of mind and also serotonin, which have researchers curious about the ability of cannabidiol to turn around the effects of low serotonin levels.
So can Cannabidiol be utilized for anxiety? The short answer is yes, but with some possibly significant negative effects. Cannabidiol does have a helpful result on memory and decreased blood circulation in the mind, which has been related to minimized anxiety and sleep problems. However, there are a series of other concerns that need to be taken into consideration when considering attempting this as a treatment for anxiousness. Make Cbd Tincture From Isolate
Cannabidiol can cause significant adverse responses, if it is taken at the advised dosages over a long period of time. If you have any type of sort of heart or liver issue, and even an allergy to one of the active ingredients in Cannabidiol, it could seriously hurt them. If you experience any type of allergy, stop taking the medication right away as well as contact your healthcare provider. It is likely that you will be advised to avoid the component in future products.
Can Cannabidiol be made use of for stress and anxiety? The short answer is indeed, yet with some possibly major adverse effects. Cannabidiol can act like a mild anti-depressant. Nevertheless, it is not an energizer and so it has the possible to accumulate in the system and trigger a variety of signs and symptoms such as complication, slowed down breathing, a modification in psychological standing, boosted alertness, or other types of adverse effects. The a lot more extreme side effects are those related to the heart and also liver. If you have any kind of heart or liver issue, or a hatred any of the components in Cannabidiol, it could seriously harm them.
Can Cannabidiol be used for anxiety? It appears feasible, but it includes some major potential hazards. The very best solution is to look in the direction of choice therapies that do not include taking this certain medication. You could try a few of the many dietary supplements offered that have shown to be just as reliable as Cannabidiol in aiding to ease signs without all the possibly harmful adverse effects.

The Blind Pool
No price is too great for the scalp of the enemy king.
Alexander Koblentz, chessmaster
Florida’s Overseas Highway is a gray band linking isles of the Keys via bridges that arch over channels of turquoise water. On this day, as Highway 1 leaps across a channel to connect Boca Chica with Key West, it bears glittering rows of stalled automobiles. A few cars display geysers spurting up from radiators while drivers jig around their front bumpers, ineffectually waving rags.
“Just ‘nother day in paradise,” drawls Dan Cowell. He drapes an arm out the window of his own car – a vintage red Miata – and flicks open a button on his rayon shirt with his other hand.
“We not movin’, okay, not a centimeter, even!” his companion, Linda Parker, marvels. “And so-o long.”
“We’re near peak of tourist season,” Dan says. “Add a holiday. Stir in a traffic accident. There’s your recipe for happiness, beyb.”
Dan says the word “babe” using a long and strong vowel, in the Caribbean Creole argot. Saying it this way is part of their code of intimacy.
She peers out from her side of the car at the blue waters that ripple beneath the highway bridge. Tiny wavelets fling back sparks of sunlight.
“We are not so high up,” she says. “Let us jump into water, make a swim ‘round to our place. Serious!”
Dan smiles. Linda is a young, strong Moskita Indian woman, raised on an island off the coast of Honduras. She’s fully able to act on her suggestion.
“Might’s well. Our highway seems ‘bout done being a street.” He gives a languid shrug. “Guess we’re in a park-and-lock lot now…”
Bass vibrations telegraph an approach of powerful machinery. Dan checks his mirrors and sees two lines of big motorcycles bearing down on them from the east. One line seeks to thread the gap between the lanes of stopped cars, the other rumbles along the bridge’s narrow shoulder.
“Shit. Crank up your window.” Dan gestures with his thumb. “We’re about to get hammered by noise.”
Large bikes leading the pack are fattened by saddlebags and chromium crash bars. A massive Honda Gold Wing FGB touring machine roars by on the right, while a purple Harley CVO Road King thumps past on their left. Dan sees that the rider on the Harley is as bulky as his bike. Thick shoulders thrust out through armholes of a black leather vest to strain the long sleeves of a white T-shirt. Curve of his belly and chest bulge over the motorcycle’s gas tank. His neck seems wider than the Nazi-style helmet on his head.
“Ah-ha,” Linda says. “Here now is American motorcycle gang, jus’ like your movies, right?”
“No!” Dan speaks loudly to be heard. “Only wannabes! Don’t have on cuts, patches, or colors. Plus, real gangbangers straddle Harleys. Wouldn’t be caught dead on anything else. I only see one. They’re wusses.”
A few cars beyond the Miata, the motorcycles try to squeeze by a broad Cadillac sedan. The Honda rider can’t make it on the right, so he stops and insistently beeps his horn. The Caddy driver tries to swing a yard to his left, almost hits the Harley. That rider lifts a foot and boots off the car’s side mirror. The sedan backs up and makes a panicked lurch to the right, just in time to smack into a sleeker machine trying to follow the Honda – knocking the bike and its rider into the guardrail with a boom and a screech of metal.
Motorcycles dip over their front wheels as they brake to a halt. Riders swing legs off over the seats, lean their motorcycles on kickstands. The engines keep running. The Harley rider loosens his helmet and strides back to the motorcycle behind his – a BMW GTL with so many antennas sprouting from a case bolted onto its rear luggage rack, it looks like a highway patrol vehicle.
Dan now sees the big rider wears over his nose and mouth a bandanna printed with the naked cheekbones and jaw of a skull. He points at the BMW rider, who hits switches mounted on his handlebars. The Harley guy nods, stomps over to the Caddy. He yanks his helmet off a shaven head. He punches it into the driver’s side window, bashing the glass into a spray of green crumbs. Through a succession of other windshields in front of him, Dan sees a dim pair of white-haired people who cower on the Caddy’s front seat.
“Oh fuck,” he says. “Now that just ain’t right.”
He plucks a cell phone from the pocket of his shirt and passes it to Linda. “Dial up 911, beyb? Tell ‘em what’s goin’ on out there.”
He yanks open the door and exits his car. He walks toward the Caddy through a haze of percussion that beats from the tailpipes of idling motorcycles. He sees the big Harley guy lean into the sedan’s busted window and start yelling. Dan walks faster. Other riders smirk as they slouch out of his path.
“Hey, check it! This lame-o wants to bump chests with Tank!” one exclaims.
“That’s a show,” another says. “Guar-ran-teed.”
Dan hesitates for a moment. Maybe he’s chomping off more than he can chew? Then he sees that the old couple in the Caddy have slid all the way over to the passenger door where they cringe and stare, bug-eyed with fear, at the man haranguing them.
“Hey,” Dan says, closing in. “Quit that!”
The big man pulls back from the window. The skull-print cloth that had covered his mouth has fallen around this neck. Dan sees stubbly jowls, a broad nose, and intense, close-set eyes with irises so pale they seem nearly white. He never sees the arm swinging a fist up into his stomach. That mighty punch drives air from his lungs and sends him flying across the pavement to thump against the side of a minivan one lane over. He flops into a heap, and all his attention focuses on where his next breath might come from.
He hears a hoarse, faraway voice grind out, “Dammit, you ol’ farts just crunched a prime ride. Worth a hundred K! To make us whole, you’ll do what? Sell this joke of a car?”
Dan finds himself able to gasp in a pint of breath, another. He levers himself on an elbow, grips the door latch of the van, and pulls himself onto his feet. He sees the big man plus two other riders hoist the damaged motorcycle up into the air, then tumble it over the bridge’s railing. He only vaguely comprehends what he sees, since it makes no sense, and barely registers the sound of a distant splash.
The riders come around the Caddy, kicking at it, smashing the taillights and booting dents into its fenders. The big one has his Nazi Stahlhelm back atop his boulder of a head, and the skull-print bandana tugged again up over his nose. He sees Dan, and waves a hand.
“Hey bros, look!” he says. “Our citizen shook off his chin-check.”
He strides to Dan. He’s at least six-foot-eight, has to weigh more than 300 pounds. Pale eyes study Dan. He tilts his head. “Aw-w-w,” he croons. “Did I hurt lil’ punk’s feelings? Let’s hug it out.” Thick arms encompass Dan’s chest and upper back. He’s instantly crushed into the broad stiff plates of the giant’s vest – he realizes it actually is body armor – and into a miasma of leather and rancid sweat. His ribs creak from the remorseless force. He feels the man’s crotch gyrate obscenely against him.
“Feelin’ any better now? I am!” he says. “Wanna be my lil’ bitch? After I turn you out, we’ll pass you all ‘round.”
It sets off a bout of raucous laughter.
Dan squirms to escape, which makes the big rider shove him firmly back into the van and dry-hump his body. The others howl with glee. Dan twists hard and kicks the man in the lower leg with all his strength. His assailant merely grunts, and the white eyes narrow. He swings open his arms, cuffs Dan across the face as he falls, then snatches him with one hand by the nape of the neck and hoists him up so his feet barely drag on the pavement.
“Like it savage? Hey, me too! You won’t sit for a week.”
And suddenly, Linda is there.
“You! Let ‘im go! Now, I say!”
As she rushes in, the other riders try to haul her back. She swats their hands aside then leaps like a wildcat, going for the leader’s eyes with her fingernails. They grab her and yank her away. But the leader beckons.
“No. Lemme have her,” He says.
They propel her forward. The big man catches her by the back of her neck with his free hand. Dan and Linda gape at each other, beat with their fists at the hideous power of his grip, try to twist and kick themselves free.
“Hey,” he growls. “Your squeeze? Mud-bitch and her race betrayer! Hot for each other, huh? So… let’s see some licks.”
He brings them closer together. “Go kissy-kissy,” he says.
Linda jerks up her chin and spits a gob of saliva just past his face.
He scowls. Dan sees knuckles on the huge hand whiten, also notices a strange detail, the end of one middle finger is emblazoned with dark lines, a tattoo of a letter “Y,” that wavers like a rune. He feels his own body sway helplessly as the big man spreads his arms and pulls them apart… and then accelerates their faces directly at each other. Dan tries to duck, to turn or thrust out an elbow, to do anything that might soften the coming collision.
None of it reduces the impact. He smashes the heads of Dan and Linda together with a vicious crack, lets their limp bodies drop. As he steps over them, he wipes his sweaty palms on his vest. His crew laughs, applauds. His gaze wanders across windows of cars nearby. Occupants shrink away from windows in those vehicles, avert their eyes, desperate to avoid drawing his attention to themselves.
He gives a brief, amused snort.
“Let’s be smart,” the leader says. “Sanitize the crime scene.”
“Wha’chu like, Big T?” another rider asks.
“One-eight-seven these fish.” He gestures toward the bridge railing. “Put ‘em over.”
Through a dim red haze of lapsing consciousness, Dan feels his wrists and ankles seized by rough hands. A moment of weightlessness follows, next a hard smack of water against his upper back and shoulders. The tiny spot of awareness left to him takes in a progression of colors that swirl before his eyes – blue, green, indigo and back to blue again. He realizes that he’s underwater, and spinning.
Linda, Linda… he thinks, as he struggles to clear his mind, to make his limbs move. They must have thrown her in too! Got to… revive. Find her.
The big rider looks down at the channel. A double trail of bubbles rises from the dark, azure shapes of the sinking bodies.
“Yah, bros,” he says. “Done ‘bout the best we can, I reckon. Deek? Let ol’ Cranker warm your back, till we snatch another ride. High time for us to roll, ‘case John Law gets his ass in gear and tries to crash our party. Right?”


Three minor girls among four martyred in Indian unprovoked firing at LoC
RAWALPINDI (92 News) – Four people, including three minor girls, embraced martyrdom while two others were injured in Indian unprovoked firing at the Line of Control on Saturday. Eight-year-old Shazia, 16-year-old Shahzad, four-year-old Raiba and seven-year-old Faiza were martyred in the Khoi Ratta Sector. The PK Army also retaliated vigorously in Bhimber and Chakothi sectors. Meanwhile, the Foreign Office has condemned the Indian unprovoked firing continuing at the LoC and the Working Boundary for the last several days.

26 February 2019 Toronto CRA & Tax Professionals - International Tax
This summarizes some of the remarks made by Blair Vokey (Senior Technical Field Advisor, International Tax Division) at a Toronto Centre Tax Professionals seminar on 26 February 2019. (We may add at a later date a summaryu of some of his comments on appeal procedures.) The other CRA presenters (whose comments are not summarized) were Venetia Putureanu (Director, International Tax Division) and Donna O'Connor (Director, Competent Authority Services Division), who discussed CRA's internal structure, progress on benchmarks, and procedural topics.
BEPS Actions 8-10 (revised transfer pricing guidelines)
The working party responsible for Actions 8-10 (“Working Party Six”) was the only BEPS party to operate on a consensus basis; that is, the soft language in those Actions was essentially by design – e.g. using “may” instead of “shall.”
It is our view that all that was really done with these Actions was to clarify the guidance that already existed at the time, and that they do not effect substantial changes. There are changes in wording, but in the end the underlying principles are the same as they have always been.
Work on Actions 8-10 continues to this day. We hope to have final guidance out by November 2019. Two of the principles we hope to clarify are the risk-free return and risk-adjusted return.
Regarding newly released guidance, Canada has not adopted the simplification measure concerning low-value-added intragroup services. If you have auditors saying “there should be a 5% markup on intragroup service-charges because of the OECD guidance,” that is not the case; conversely, we do not want taxpayers coming to us and saying “we have all these management fees, so its definitely 5%”. That is not a benchmark. We continue to rely on IC87-2R to govern intragroup pricing, and those arguments will not work until we adopt the actual measure. If and when the measure is adopted, we will need to implement it in a way for taxpayers to elect to have it apply. We have not looked at that yet.
We will release some policy in the near future regarding CRA’s views on the BEPS project and its related guidance. We have held off until now because the financial transactions project is not finalized – there may be some big changes coming out of that. Of course, there will also probably be crossover between what is finalized in the financial transactions project and prior guidance. Once that is ready, we will be in a position to give CRA’s perspective on how this all applies in Canada, such as the hard-to-value intangibles project, which BEPS provides a lot of guidance on.
In Canada, we have followed the precedent of looking at ex-post returns to ascertain what should have been taken into account at the time the valuation was made, so that the new guidance may not actually amount to much of a change.
Finally, the OECD is shifting focus to the digital economy. Working Party Six may or may not be involved in that process.
BEPS Action 13 (transfer-pricing documentation and CbC reporting)
In implementing Action 13, Canada did not implement anything regarding the local or master file. We are still considering the master file, and that requirement may still be introduced.
Regarding the local file, Canada feels that, effectively, our request for contemporaneous documentation satisfies that need. It has been suggested that our requirements for filing contemporaneous documentation are a lot more rigorous than what is in Action 13. We do not necessarily see that as the case – our penalty regime is based on reasonable efforts.
What is required in the filing of contemporaneous documentation is effectively outlined in s. 247(4)(a). Where penalties usually arise is from a failure to comply with subparagraphs (iv)-(vi) - i.e. the documentation is not complete and accurate regarding:
(iv) the functions performed, the property used or contributed and the risks assumed, in respect of the transaction, by the participants in the transaction,
(v) the data and methods considered and the analysis performed to determine the transfer prices or the allocations of profits or losses or contributions to costs, as the case may be, in respect of the transaction, and
(vi) the assumptions, strategies and policies, if any, that influenced the determination of the transfer prices or the allocations of profits or losses or contributions to costs, as the case may be, in respect of the transaction; ... .
We receive these studies, and they tell a story. That story is what we audit in a transfer pricing audit. Our analysis, interviews, and so forth, are all about confirming what was in that transfer pricing study. If the taxpayer represents that one of the parties is a low-risk distributor and our review demonstrates that it is a full-fledged distributor, creating value right across the board, penalties will probably be assessed (provided the $5 million threshold is exceeded). We see a lot of cases where the transfer-pricing study appears to have been done after the fact, and somebody is trying to put a square peg into a round hole. Those are the situations where we feel penalties are warranted.
In other words, it is not that the Canadian penalty regimes are more rigorous than Action 13 - it is that CRA's audit process is more rigorous than in most jurisdictions. Canada routinely does in-depth reviews that look at both sides of the transaction.

ORDER UP!: RiverPark Hosts National Tour of Broadway Monday ‘WAITER’ | characteristics
WAITRESS’ second national tour will serve up a dose of musical theater on Monday at 7:00 p.m. at the RiverPark Center.
Based on the 2007 film of the same name, starring Keri Russell, the musical premiered on Broadway at the Brooks Atkinson Theater in April 2016 and was nominated for and received four Tony Awards, including Best Musical, at the 70th Annual Tony Awards a nomination for Best Musical Theater Album at the 59th Annual Grammy Awards.
The show’s book was written by Jessie Nelson, best known for her film I Am Sam, with music and lyrics by Grammy-winning songwriter Sara Bareilles and directed by Tony Award-winning actress Diane Paulus.
Dominique Kent, who plays the role of Becky, said she and the cast are excited about coming to Owensboro, while Kent emphasizes that she’ll be able to travel places she’s never dared to go.
“We’re super excited,” said Kent. “I really see a lot of the country for the first time, especially the south and the middle of the country. I’m from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and live in Los Angeles so these are probably the two places I know best…. I look forward to seeing different cities and seeing what each city and culture brings….”
The show revolves around Jenna (played by Jisel Soleil Ayon) who makes a living as a waitress at a diner while in a tumultuous relationship with her husband Earl (Shawn W. Smith) and unexpectedly finds out she’s pregnant. Jenna finds escapism and joy in baking her own cakes while working alongside her friends Becky (Kent) and Dawn (Gabriella Marzetta) and forming a relationship with someone new.
Kent believes that audiences will be able to narrate the content of the show in some way while at the same time enjoying themselves.
“(The audience can) expect to have a great time. …It’s like a musical, a comedy, a dramedy…” Kent said. “The audience can definitely expect to actually see themselves on stage. Our show is fun and joyful…but at the same time it tells the story of Jenna who really doesn’t have the easiest life…and doesn’t really know herself and embarks on this journey of self-love and self-love. Worth being shown off by her two best friends, Becky and Dawn, as well as an unexpected relationship with her gynecologist. They really show her that she is worth more than she thinks. I think that’s definitely a lesson everyone will learn from our show.”
The tour began in October 2021 and the production cast looks forward to getting back to doing what they do best, which is in the spotlight, as this tour marks Kent’s debut national touring show.
“It was a hurricane,” Kent said. “It’s a little bit of everything I expected when I was learning about national touring at school, and at the same time nothing like it; just because of the last two years with COVID… but it’s been amazing. I’m having the time of my life…”
Kent said returning to performing after being unable to perform due to the coronavirus pandemic was “surreal”.
“…When theaters closed due to COVID, there was no idea what was going to happen next to live theater because Broadway was closed for such a long period of time,” Kent said. “With live theater comes live audiences and coming face to face with each other…. It feels absolutely surreal that I get to do that…”
For Monday’s performance, the production cast looks forward to sharing their talents, the live band and the story, while showcasing the “nuances of the theatre.”
“It’s going to be a time of cheering and roaring, and it’s definitely a show not to be missed,” said Kent. “(It’s) very happy and it’s going to be an amazing night to just escape from the world around her and fully immerse myself in this other world.”

NATO chief Jens Stoltenberg on Tuesday reiterated his calls for a “negotiated settlement” with the Taliban in Afghanistan, admitting the country faced a “deeply difficult” security situation as foreign troops left.
“The security situation in Afghanistan remains very difficult and requires a negotiated settlement. NATO will continue to support Afghanistan, including through funding, civilian presence and training abroad,” Stoltenberg wrote on Twitter after s’ be met with Afghan President Ashraf Ghani. .
Since early May, violence has escalated as the Taliban launched a massive assault just days after US-led NATO forces began a withdrawal that is now almost complete.
The deadly advance saw insurgents seize dozens of districts, border posts and surround several provincial capitals.
Fighting continues through the rugged countryside as peace talks between the Afghan government and the Taliban have so far failed to reach an agreement to end the war.
Most of NATO’s 10,000 troops have already withdrawn from the country after President Joe Biden’s decision to repatriate troops from Washington after two decades.
The United Nations warned on Monday that Afghanistan could see the highest death toll among civilians in more than a decade if Taliban offensives across the country are not halted.
The United States descended on Afghanistan and its Taliban government in 2001 following the September 11 attacks by Al Qaeda, who had sought refuge in the country.
There are serious fears that the advance of the Taliban could see the collapse of the country and undo the tenuous gains made in 20 years of costly involvement in the country.

Jagada Chambers was sent to prison for attempted second-degree murder in 2000. The story, as he tells it, was that he was on spring break with friends during college and got into a physical altercation with an acquaintance. He was released four years later, in August 2004, and his understanding was that his voting rights were gone forever. This all happened in Florida, which permanently bars citizens with felony convictions from voting, unless they receive an individual exemption after a hearing from the state's clemency board, led by the governor. "I committed my crime in Florida, so I thought I had been disenfranchised forever," said Chambers. An estimated 10 percent of adults in Florida cannot vote because of a felony record, according to a 2016...

Gendered titles such as “The Kerryman” newspaper should be changed to reflect present values, according to the Minister of State for Inclusion.
Josepha Madigan has suggested that the newspaper title be changed to “The Kerry People”.
Speaking to RTÉ radio’s Today with Claire Byrne show, the Minister defended her call for an end to gendered titles such as “chairman” and “spokesman”.
Ms Madigan said the issue was not about a particular newspaper but was much broader. Gender and language were important, and it was important not to use words that did not reflect present values.
Asked about the title of the magazine “Woman’s Way”, Ms Madigan agreed it too should be changed.
It was her duty as a female politician to look around her and see what could be improved, Ms Madigan said in response to a suggestion by Kerry TD Michael Healy-Rae that she should be focusing on Covid-19.
'Political correctness nonsense'
Earlier Siobhán Murphy, general manager of The Kerryman newspaper, said that the content of the newspaper had changed with the times but there was no need to change the title which was their brand and had been since 1904.
Mr Healy-Rae said that The Kerryman was comparable to the bible and local people were always looking forward to reading it. “It plays an integral role in the community.”
It was time to stop “this political correctness nonsense,” Mr Healy-Rae said. Where would it stop, he asked. Would the name “manhole” have to be changed to “personhole”, he queried.
He said he had yet to hear a customer in his shop complain about the title of the newspaper.
Earlier on Newstalk Breakfast, Mr Healy-Rae said: “What I would say to Government ministers at the minute is, ‘for God's sake do your job’. We have enough to be worried about than to consider the title of The Kerryman newspaper.”

Kers in places other than the home Murdock's study of how this development took place broadens our understanding of the social and cultural history of alcohol and the various issues that surround it As alcohol continues to spark debate about behaviors attitudes and gender roles Domesticating Drink provides valuable historical context and important lessons for understanding and responding to the evolving use and abuse of drin.
In my research on Prohibition and the historical drinking habits of Americans this book was invaluableThe writing is academic it deals with important and well researched information it isn t a light read and it shouldn t be Domesticating Drink captures the social context of beverage alcohol consumption better than any book I ve read so far I first discovered Catherine Gilbert Murdock when she appeared in Ken Burns outstanding documentary on prohibition aptly titled Prohibition I found her segments fascinating and immediately set out to track down her book I had already read Daniel Okrent s Last Call the inspiration for the documentary and was eager to read abo. The period of prohibition from 1919 to 1933 marks the fault line between the cultures of Victorian and modern America In Domesticating Drink Murdock argues that the debates surrounding alcohol also marked a divide along gender lines For much of early American history men generally did the drinking and women and children were freuently the victims of alcohol associated violence and abuse As a result women stood at the fore of.

How did fuse
First, for remote detonation of explosives used primitive methods, such as laid to the charge of the powder paths. But this method was not efficient because it is largely dependent on external conditions. And calculate the time it takes to blow, it was almost impossible, after all, the public gunpowder burned with variable speed.
Solved this problem the English Tanner William Bickford, the man who was not related to military Affairs. In the places where he lived and did business with skin in the were abundant ore mines. Bickford had to listen to miners ' complaints about unreliable wicks that were used in mines for blasting rocks. Accidents, the cause of which was the inept use of explosives in mining was commonplace.
Once Bickford visited his friend, engaged in the manufacture of ropes. Tanner drew attention to the fact that strong rope composed of a plurality of intertwined individual fibers. And immediately he came up with the idea: to create a safe and reliable fuse for blasting, it is required to pour the powder in a hollow braid ropes.
Bickford began experiments. The result of many experiments was created cord, with dual sheath. The wrapped layers while walking in different directions. To protect the contents of the cord from moisture, the inventor used a special varnish and resin. Traditional gun powder Bickford was replaced by another, had a longer burning time. Thus appeared the first fuse, found application not only in mining industry but also in the military.
The second life of fuse
Subsequently, the fuse had been subjected to improvements. Instead of lighting the end of the cord matches began to use special safe igniters. To light the wick, now it was enough to pull the exhaust cord or pull the pin. This way kindle cord was possible in rainy weather and strong winds. But underwater fuse burning, alas, still could not.
During the Second world war, military engineers have solved this problem, simultaneously achieving a more stable burning rate. Now blasting would be under water without fear that at the crucial moment, the fuse will go out. Giving the cord integrity was a strong step, although to do this, the inventors had to abandon the use of black powder and try a variety of braid structures.
In the modern military and industrial blasting fuse called fuse, has been relatively neglected. It is used in cases where no good a more perfect electrical method of detonation. To see a traditional fuse, you can now often in historical films.

Before participating in Village Business Forums (VBFs) organized by Farm Concern International (FCI), farmers in Sing’isi village, a few kilometres from Arusha, had no knowledge of how to transform their farming systems, secure their livelihoods and increase their earnings. Most of the farming activities were essentially informal and geared towards subsistence.
Although Sing’isi is a productive agricultural area, with soils rich in nutrients necessary for basic plant nutrition, most farmers had little knowledge of markets and consequently produced relatively low quantities of the vegetables that thrive in this region. Hence, the combination of low production and lack of access to markets tends to work against farmers’ efforts to increase their incomes.
During FCI’S commercialization campaigns in 2011, more than 100 farmers were registered in Sing’isi village. However, the task of forming Commercial Producer Groups (CPGs) was slowed down by farmers’ lack of market knowledge as well as their negative perceptions about working in groups.
During a forum organized by Juhudi CPG at Sing’isi Commercial Village in October 2011, three traders from Mbauda Market engaged the farmers on issues of quality, quantity and pricing of vegetables. The traders present were Ms.Yasinta Macha, Ms. Shamira Omary and Ms.Magreth Athanas.
After the VBF, it was noted that there was rapid adoption of improved farming and marketing practices and the formation of more CPGs. With increased and reliable volumes from the commercialization of vegetables, farmers have ceased selling their vegetables to traders after haphazardly picking from the farm. They are now packaging them into bags. This has motivated more traders and farmers in the village to come on board the FCI DoHoMa project. These days, most farmers believe that being a CPG member is advantageous in marketing their products and improves their lifestyles through increased production and consequently, increased incomes.
Once seen as the preserve of female farmers, vegetable farming has caught the attention of men who want to be part of the economic revolution either as farmers or traders. Since the first VBF, men have been motivated to produce vegetables and the notion that vegetables are essentially a “women only chore” has been wiped out.
FCI VISION :Commercialized smallholder communities with increased incomes for improved, stabilized & sustainable livelihoods in Africa and beyond.

Heh. I am always confused by articles like this. Basically because even if I want to add something, I often find out/know that Wikipedia already has a nice and detailed article about it, and there is no point just duplicating an article in two encyclopedias. It already has more Mercury meanings you can shake a stick at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercury
Wouldn't it be simpler to just add a link to it, and focus only to any gritty superstitious and/or an examples of non-rationalist falsehood details? (Eg, I am sure that someone must have thought somewhere/when that mercury is the cure for everything. It's so shinny!) Sen 16:47, 12 April 2009 (EDT)

A lightbulb containing mercury broke right next me.
Mercury + geocentric universe
"...the compound has been shown not to be bioaccumulative..." And the source for this crap is...? "...and isn't used as extensively as anti-vax campaigners lead people to think..." Irrelevant nuance that has no bearing on the toxicity of injections that contain this non-therapeutical crap. 188.8.131.52 (talk) 10:46, 8 April 2016 (UTC)
- Medical science. The same people that found that with a compound fracture surgery placing a rod and antibiotics work better than colored crystals and leaches. Also the people that realized compounds and elements act differently. Like salt is made from sodium chloride that is essential to life; sodium is a metal that detonates on contact with water and chlorine is a caustic poisonous gas used as a chemical weapon in WW1. -EmeraldCityWanderer (talk) 14:51, 8 April 2016 (UTC)

There is something immensely comforting about these works. They come at
you entirely on their own, unencumbered by the name, life or personality
of the artist, devoid of reputation or blinding auction prices. They
lack the white noise of contemporary commentary and opinion that critics
usually must work through, either consciously or subconsciously, on the
way to their own conclusions when writing about art exhibitions. What
might be called their orphanhood or nakedness is liberating. Given the
onslaught of the art world and the current mania for contemporary art �
largely a good thing, don�t get me wrong � artist-free art can be
something of a relief.
In a way, you love these paintings in the simple, uncomplicated way you
love pets, and they love you back. You don�t expect them to hold up
their end of a conversation about art in the age of digital, or even mechanical, reproduction.
At the same time, the paintings themselves are not totally separate from
art in a professional sense. Some are full of diluted strains of art
history: assorted trickle-down styles, vague allusions, instinctive
adaptations or absorptions of things in the air. Read More.

Someone hacked the website of Linux Mint — which, according to Wikipedia’s traffic analysis report is the 3rd most popular desktop Linux distribution after Ubuntu and Fedora — and replaced links to ISO downloads with a backdoored version of the operating system. This blog post explains the situation.
Last week, during USENIX’s first Enigma conference, EFF hosted a small Capture the Flag hacking competition. I designed one of the challenges myself, entitled Usable Crypto. It requires you to use PGP as an attacker rather than a defender. It’s on the easy side, as far as CTF challenges go, and I think many people who have absolutely no hacking skills but some fumbling-around-with-PGP skills could beat it without too much trouble. And it might even demonstrate why verifying fingerprints really is rather important.
If you’d like to give it a go, it’s live at https://usable-crypto.ctf.micahflee.com/. The plot for Enigma’s CTF was loosely based off of Cory Doctorow’s novel Little Brother. You’re an X-NET hacker fighting the surveillance state’s Department of National Security. You win when you capture the flag, which is a string of text that starts with “FLAG_” (but please don’t post it in the comments).
I recently built a desktop system that I think is reasonably secure. It’s running Debian sid, also known as “unstable” — though in the Debian desktop world that just means you get to use the newest software. It’s just about as stable as “stable”, and besides, #yolo. It’s also running a grsecurity-patched Linux kernel and PaX, technologies that make Linux way more secure. Grsecurity protects you against memory corruption attacks, such as buffer overflows.
Last October I traveled to Moscow and interviewed Edward Snowden. Here’s one of the things he told me:
“Something that we haven’t seen that we need to see is a greater hardening of the overall kernels of every operating system through things like grsecurity, but unfortunately there’s a big usability gap between the capabilities that are out there, that are possible, and what is attainable for the average user.”
Since I just set up Debian with a grsec kernel, I figured I’d write a tutorial for how to do it. It’s still a long way before the average user can take advantage of this stuff – it breaks everything, and the user needs to learn how to diagnose and fix it themselves – but I think that it’s well within the capabilities of Linux nerds who are comfortable using a terminal. You can probably also follow along no matter what Linux distribution you’re using. Also, I’m fairly new to grsecurity myself, so if you have tips or suggestions, or if I got something wrong, please post in the comments.
I recently took a trip to Moscow to interview National Security Agency whistblower Edward Snowden about operational security. In the article I published on The Intercept, I mentioned that I used a faraday bag.
Our first meeting would be in the hotel lobby, and I arrived with all my important electronic gear in tow. I had powered down my smartphone and placed it in a “faraday bag” designed to block all radio emissions.
Since I published my interview, many people have asked me for more information about this faraday bag — which product did I get, what does it protect against, how does it work? So here are some quick thoughts on the topic.
I’ve been writing a computer security column for the Intercept. In most of my columns I mention Linux. Even when it’s not directly relevant (though it often is), most of my columns are in the form of tutorials, and I’d like my tutorials to be equally useful for Linux users as they are for Windows and Mac users.
For one thing, I love free and open source software. These projects are critical for security, privacy, and for the ability to tinker with and learn about your own computer. As the number of people who run free (as in speech) operating systems rise, so will the development resources that get poured into those operating systems until they “just work” at least as well as Windows and OS X do, so I talk about them every chance I get. Many of my readers already run free operating systems, and I would hate to leave them out.
After writing a column about how to communicate in secret while we’re all being watched, I got an email from Richard Stallman saying when I say Linux I clearly mean the GNU system, and he asked that I start referring to Linux distributions as GNU/Linux “so as to give us equal mention when you talk about our work.” And after writing my most recent column about how VMs can be used for isolation security, Stallman wrote a comment again saying that I mean “GNU and Linux” and asking that I give GNU equal mention. This is a really common point of view (though not at all a consensus) in the free software community, and one that I shared for a long time. But I’ve come to change my mind.
I’m switching from my old key:

If you’ve been able to ignore Pando Daily’s 100% non-technical smear campaign against the Tor Project and its developers and supporters, you’re lucky, and you may wish to stop reading now. Otherwise, read on, and perhaps prepare to lose a few brain cells.
Yasha Levine’s “investigation” against Tor unveiled what’s already prominently displayed on Tor’s website: that it was designed by the Navy and that it receives a lot of federal funding, the bulk of which comes from the Department of Defense.
To be clear, talking about Tor’s government funding is a very important discussion to have. But Yasha didn’t discuss potential threats to Tor users’ anonymity that this funding might cause, nor what potential solutions would be. Instead, he implied that there’s some sort of conspiracy between Tor developers and the US government, and that the Tor network cannot be trusted, apparently oblivious that the decentralized and open nature of the Tor network and it’s codebase makes planting backdoors nearly impossible.
Our universe is built out of mathematics. Humans have been learning, discovering, and using mathematics for thousands of years because it’s the only thing that can accurately describe what happens around us. The laws of physics are written in mathematics, and they cannot be broken.
One year ago today the Snowden revelations began. Since then there has been a flood of calls for reform. A federal judge called the NSA “almost Orwellian”. Congress and President Obama have admitted that bulk surveillance of Americans is wrong and should end. But so far we haven’t seen real reform in the US, and we might never see it. Even if the US does pass meaningful surveillance reforms the problem won’t be solved. There are billions of people all over the world that rely on the Internet, and their privacy will continue to get violated by governments around the world.
I maintain a piece of software called Tor Browser Launcher. It takes care of downloading Tor Browser Bundle for you, verifying the gpg signature, making sure you’re always using the latest version of Tor Browser, and making it easier to launch.
I originally only made Tor Browser Launcher work in Debian-based distributions, but since the default templates in Qubes are based on Fedora, I recently ported it to RPM-based distributions as well. Here’s how to set it up.
