BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (WIAT) — A new form of therapy is taking off in the state. Psychedelic therapy is now available to patients struggling with depression, anxiety and other mental illnesses.
Psychedelic therapy is growing in popularity across the country. It is a type of therapy that uses psychedelic drugs to tap into the mind and release bottled up emotions.
You may be wondering if this type of treatment is legal. According to therapist Kenton Bartlett, it is. Therapists use legal forms of psychedelic drugs like ketamine and LSD to help treat a number of mental heath disorders and illnesses.
Bartlett said with the growing mental health crisis, this new way to approach treatment is needed now more than ever.
“Ketamine is totally legal and safe when used responsibly. Any doctor can prescribe it and it can be used in lots of different ways, using it in conjunction with therapy can be a really helpful thing for a lot of people,” Bartlett said. “This is a different kind of therapy which allows people to lower their defenses and kind of go deeper inside and hopefully have different insights that might come about that can be helped with these different medicines such as ketamine.”
The Alabama Psychedelic Therapy fund helps give patients that may not be able to afford it, access to this therapy. For more information about psychedelic therapy and how you can support the growing filed click here.

Alzheimer's linked to career choices
August 09, 2004
CLEVELAND, Aug 09, 2004 (United Press International) -- U.S. researchers have found a link between the mental demands of an occupation and later development of Alzheimer's disease.
Researchers at University Hospitals of Cleveland and Case Western Reserve University said people with Alzheimer's are more likely to have had less-mentally-stimulating careers than their peers who do not have Alzheimer's.
The team studied 122 people with Alzheimer's and 235 people without the disease, all of whom were more than 60 years old. They gathered information about their occupational history over 40 years, from ages 20 through 60.
The most intriguing finding was the mental demands of occupations during a person's 20s did not appear linked to later development of Alzheimer's, but starting in their 30s, those people who did not develop Alzheimer's were found to have jobs that were more mentally stimulating than those who did develop Alzheimer's later in life.
That difference in occupational experiences in the two groups persisted during their 40s and 50s, the researchers said.

High-rise buildings have become iconic symbols of modern urban landscapes, showcasing architectural marvels that touch the skies. Constructing these towering structures requires materials that can withstand immense loads and provide structural integrity. Among the critical components used in high-rise construction, the SAIL TMT bar plays a pivotal role. In this article, we delve into the various applications of SAIL TMT bars in constructing high-rise buildings.
The primary function of SAIL TMT bars in high-rise construction is to serve as the structural framework of the building. These bars construct columns, beams, and slabs, forming the skeletal structure that supports the entire building. Their exceptional tensile strength and durability ensure the stability and safety of the structure, even when subjected to heavy loads and external forces.
Reinforced Concrete Core:
Many high-rise buildings feature a reinforced concrete core that houses essential utilities, elevators, and staircases. SAIL TMT bars are extensively used in reinforcing this core, providing the necessary strength and stability. The bars ensure the core can withstand vertical and lateral forces, contributing to the building’s overall structural integrity.
In regions prone to seismic activity, the structural design of high-rise buildings must prioritize earthquake resistance. SAIL TMT bars are preferred for their superior flexibility and bendability, allowing engineers to design buildings with enhanced seismic resistance. These bars can absorb and distribute seismic forces, reducing the risk of structural damage during an earthquake.
Flexibility in Design:
High-rise buildings often feature complex and innovative architectural designs. SAIL TMT bars’ excellent bendability and weldability enable architects and engineers to bring creative and unconventional designs to life. These bars offer the flexibility needed to execute diverse design concepts, whether it’s curved facades, cantilevered sections, or unique geometries.
The ability of SAIL TMT bars to bear heavy loads makes them indispensable in high-rise construction. As these buildings rise to significant heights, the cumulative weight of the structure, occupants, and contents places immense stress on the supporting framework. SAIL TMT bars provide the required load-bearing capacity to ensure the building’s safety and longevity when purchased from the top steel suppliers.
Resistance to Corrosion:
High-rise buildings are exposed to various environmental factors, including moisture and pollution. SAIL TMT bars are designed to resist corrosion effectively, ensuring that the structural integrity of the building remains intact over time. Their corrosion resistance is especially crucial in coastal and humid environments.
Speed and Efficiency:
High-rise construction projects often have tight schedules. The ease of handling, welding, and bending SAIL TMT bars contributes to efficient construction processes. Builders can complete projects within stipulated timelines, reducing construction costs and delays.
In conclusion, SAIL TMT bars are indispensable components in constructing high-rise buildings. Their unmatched strength, flexibility, seismic resistance, and load-bearing capacity make them a preferred choice for architects, engineers, and builders seeking to create iconic skyscrapers. Whether it’s ensuring safety in seismic zones or bringing innovative designs to fruition, SAIL TMT bars play a pivotal role in shaping the skyline of modern cities. Collaborating with the best steel suppliers in Chennai can help provide the best steel you need for your needs.

My little one wanted a blue whale cake from day one, so I just had to live up to the challenge.
I’ve used rice crispy treat to form the body and covered it with marshmallow fondant. I originally did the same with the tail, but it was much too big and heavy after it was covered, so I made a second one with fondant only. It was kept in place by toothpicks. The baby whale was also sculpted with the fondant. The body and tail was placed on a sponge cake with butter icing to form the sea and waves. The teeth and eyes was more fondant and I covered the whales with egg white to get the “wet look”.

(I couldn’t get the “review this castle” form to work at that site linked below, so I’m just reprinting here what I submitted…)
Hochosterwitz is a wonderful castle, and I make an effort to visit everytime I’m in the vicinity. I’ve been there numerous times, most recently last weekend with the family. The approach is unique, passing through 14 fortified gates; it is also quite steep, which is a disadvantage if you are carrying a stubborn 5-year old. From a distance the castle, especially in brilliant autumn light, is just fantastic to look at, like something out of a fanciful hollywood movie about dragons. The view from the castle itself is just as striking, as the surrounding landscape is quite beautiful. Minus: the interior of the castle does smell quite musty in places.
The 14 fortified gates, though, each with its own specific means of defense, are what keep me going back, and what gives this castle a special place in my mental register of castles. As I struggled up the slippery gravel path this Saturday, with Gamma on my shoulders, her be-mittened hands over my eyes, I imagined the meeting in the castle 500 years ago to plan the gates.
King: I’m thinking something with pitch.
Knight 1: Flaming pitch.
Architect: No problem. We’ll put slits *here*, you just stand above and pour out flaming pitch when they stand underneath.
King: I like.
Knights:[in unison] Yeah, that rocks.
Architect: Rocks? No problem. In the next gate, they can throw rocks down at people.
Knight L33tb0y666: [whispered aside to fellow knight] D00d, did you notice our table is round? That is *so* dark ages.
King: [to knight l33tb0y666] Good Sir Knight, you would care to share your kind words with the rest of us assembled here?
Knight L33tb0y666: Ahem. Eh, I was thinking like a drawbridge. Or wait, a bridge that suddenly drops away when everyone is standing on it, and they plunge down the mountain! Or, this would be cool, a bridge that looks normal, you know, only it’s mounted on this axle going crossways in the middle, so when they walk past the halfway point, it tips forward and they…
King: Plunge down the mountain! I love it. I love all of them.
Architect: No prob, that’s gates 6, 7 and 8 then.
King: So how many gates we have then so far?
Architect: Eh, [counts] 14.
King: Any other ideas?
Black Knight: How about butterflies?
Black Knight: Butterflies. Enemy soldiers rush into a gatehouse, a gate crashes down behind them, butterflies swarm out and they can’t see anything with all these butterflies flying around, they’d be easy prey!
Black Knight: You have any ideas how territorial a butterfly is?
Red Knight: [snicker] Attack butterflies, great.
Black Knight: Good knight, you making light of butterflies? They’re vicious, worms with wings!
King: They there. But, what about in winter? How would we keep the butterflies? They’re seasonal aren’t they?
The head of the guard in the castle was this giant, 2.25 meters tall, which is what, over 7 feet. Carrying Gamma up the mountain with no resistance was bad enough. Imagine fighting your way up past 14 heavily fortified gates, then you reach the top and there’s Andre the Giant standing there in armor. Feh.
The castle was never taken by force. Who’d want it, nice view, but totally musty.

What is Creative Writing?
Creative writing is any form of writing that falls outside the traditional professions associated with writing, specifically journalism, technical writing or academic writing. Creative writing is often associated with fiction, poetry or other related forms of writing. Individuals operating in this field will have a strong understanding of various forms of writing, literature, history, and other associated fields.
Top Online Creative Writing Programs
Earning a creative writing degree online may be a formidable choice for students across the country. Online classes provide students with access to quality curriculum, taught by subject matter experts at accredited institutions. While studying online, you may elect to enroll in one of the following creative writing programs which will determine how long it takes you to earn a degree in creative writing.
Online Certificate in Creative Writing
The online certificate in creative writing is a short-term program designed to pinpoint a subdiscipline within creative writing or provide students with foundational knowledge in the field of study. Certificate programs can last from a few weeks to a year and provide students with a platform to continue learning and honing their craft in the writing domain.
Online Creative Writing Associate's Degree
Associate degrees in creative writing are 2-year programs that combine general education courses with writing curriculum. Degrees at this level are most frequently conferred as an Associate of Arts (AA) as the curriculum is infused with more liberal arts than science.
Online Creative Writing Bachelor’s Degree
Online bachelor’s degrees in creative writing are conferred as a Bachelor’s of Arts (BA) as a 4-year program. Disciplines within creative writing depend on the breadth of programs offered by the school and can include: fiction, non-fiction, poetry, or screenwriting. Bachelor’s degree programs are the most common degree option in creative writing with associate degrees and certificate programs gaining ground.
Why Earn a Creative Writing Degree Online?
Accredited universities of all types have been rapidly adding distance learning degrees in creative writing. In an effort to keep up with student demand, accredited programs in writing have been added to provide distinct benefits to students. The most common reasons creative writing students have migrated to online degrees include the following six reasons.
- Cost – Net cost associated with earning a creative writing degree is generally less than on-campus equivalent degrees. The opportunity cost of continuing to work while earning a degree allows students to earn a wage while earning a degree. Next, distance learning can be accomplished from virtually anywhere. Thus, the need to live on campus can be averted saving considerable expenses of housing, food, transportation, and parking. Next, accredited programs recognized by the DOE allow students to apply for federal financial aid. Lastly, talk to the school's admissions team about credits for life experience to further reduce your degree requirements.
- Access & Flexibility– Students enrolled in an online course have the unique ability to jump online at any time without the traditional restrictions of being in class. With little to no physical limitations, distance from the school and class scheduling is much easier for students and working professionals. In fact, many online programs start every eight weeks giving you the ability to start on a rolling basis versus waiting through the traditional school year cycle.
- Accreditation – Enrolling in an online program offered by a regionally or nationally accredited program is critical to your success. Accreditation is earned by colleges and universities by independent, third-party organizations that vet a school’s processes, procedures, and curriculum to ensure quality standards are met from program to program.
- Quality Curriculum & Instruction – Quality of online degrees are on par with classroom-based degrees based on surveys from graduates across the country. With a published instructional model and organized syllabus, online classes can have the same feel as a traditional degree program integrating a capstone course, thesis, cumulative examination and dissertation according to the program.
- Pace – Many online degree programs in finance are self-paced in an asynchronous learning environment allowing students to take as many classes as time allows at a given time. Additionally, the notion of a traditional school year is augmented with many classes starting on a rolling basis instead of just once a year.
- Student Services – Online programs offer students access to dedicated academic advisors and career advisors to help answer questions about your future. Students studying online will have access to substantive student services to help them succeed in school and land a job after graduating by leveraging the school’s career counselors and alumni network.

Anatomy of the Deal: Microsoft and Cisco
An inside look at prominent deals within the Microsoft partner community.
Part of an occasional series.
Cisco Systems Inc. is the leading vendor of networking devices and applications
for the Internet. The networking giant racked up $28.5 billion in sales
in its fiscal year 2006, ended July 29.
Cisco and Microsoft have a history of collaboration on products, architectures
Cisco and Microsoft announced in September at the Security Standard conference
in Boston that the companies' network protocol technologies -- Cisco's
Network Admission Control (NAC) and Microsoft's Network Access Protection
(NAP) -- will interoperate. The companies had announced two years ago
that they would work toward interoperability of the standards. Both protocols
are aimed at preventing infected devices from accessing corporate networks.
Mark Ashida, general manager of Windows enterprise networking at Microsoft,
says NAP consists of two pieces: a client component that will be included
in the forthcoming Vista operating system and a network policy server
component that will run on the forthcoming Windows "Longhorn"
server. Therefore, Ashida says, NAP won't be fully available until Longhorn
server ships in the second half of 2007. Cisco's NAC is currently in operation,
and the two protocols will interoperate as soon as NAP is available.
"Start rolling out Cisco NAC, and as Longhorn server ships and you
start deploying Vista, you can phase your rollouts," says Joe Sirrianni,
senior solutions manager for Cisco's security technology group. "You
don't have to do any creative scheduling and management of all of that."
Property owned worldwide:
9.9 million square feet
Property leased worldwide:
12 million square feet
Total amount of property:
21.9 million square feet*
Microsoft; *as of August 2006
How Partners Will Benefit
Independent software vendors (ISVs) have a single application programming
interface (API) to write to, Sirrianni notes. "VARs can create a
solution that leverages most efficiently what the customer has already
and deploy where the customer is going," he says.
Neil MacDonald, vice president and distinguished analyst at Gartner Inc.
in Stamford, Conn., says NAC-NAP interoperability will reduce the complexity
of deploying network security infrastructures. As a result, both partners
and customers will benefit, MacDonald says: "It makes life a whole
How Cisco and Microsoft Will Benefit
Interoperability will satisfy customers of both companies who were
complaining that a lack of NAC-NAP integration would make for difficult
network set-ups, MacDonald says. "They were under tremendous pressure
from their customers saying this was ridiculous -- it made no sense,"
"[Customers] wanted to ensure that the two companies were working
together," Sirrianni says. "Most customers have a fairly large
Microsoft investment and a fairly large Cisco investment."
Ashida adds that aside from just interoperating with NAC, Microsoft intends
to eventually make NAP available on multiple platforms, including Unix,
Linux and the Macintosh operating system.
"I believe NAP is one of the most open things that Microsoft has
done," Ashida says.

The GOODS from Ocean Wise
Vancouver, BC | Eleven years ago, Vancouver Aquarium Marine Science Centre sharpened its focus on protecting the world’s oceans by tackling its biggest issue: overfishing. Now nationwide, the Aquarium’s Ocean Wise® sustainable seafood conservation program stretches across restaurants, markets, retailers and suppliers and works with chefs, restauranteurs and business partners across myriad sectors to raise awareness about the need to protect the last 10 per cent of fish left in our waters.
As the program continues to expand, Vancouver Aquarium is proud to share that celebrated chef and sustainable seafood ambassador Ned Bell has joined the team as its Ocean Wise executive chef.
“We have long been partners with Chef Ned Bell in the fight against overfishing,” says John Nightingale, president and CEO of Vancouver Aquarium Marine Science Centre. “Having him officially join our team as executive chef will strengthen and expand our national Ocean Wise program and further elevate our culinary experience at the Vancouver Aquarium.”
With the support of the Aquarium’s Ocean Wise program, Bell created Chefs for Oceans in 2014 to raise awareness about sustainable seafood by riding his bike across Canada. Bell’s dedication to sustainable seafood has inspired many Canadian chefs to get involved in the cause – a movement that is having a meaningful impact on the way consumers think about the seafood they eat, where it comes from and how they, too, can help protect our oceans by making ocean-friendly seafood choices.
In addition to helping further expand the Ocean Wise conservation program across Canada, Bell will lead the culinary team at Vancouver Aquarium, one of the city’s most coveted venues for special events and conferences.
“As one of only three venues in Vancouver to hold more than 2,000 people for events, Vancouver Aquarium offers a memorable and engaging environment for special events and conferences,” adds Nightingale. “Chef Bell’s immense experience in culinary excellence, matched by his personal commitment to sustainability, will refine our culinary experience – from weddings and large events to a visit to the café, Vancouver Aquarium will be one of the best sustainable venues in the city.”
Recently honoured with the Global Seafood Award for Advocacy at the 2015 Seaweb Seafood Summit in Malta and the 2015 Green Award for Sustainability by Vancouver Magazine, Ned Bell’s diverse British Columbia upbringing instilled a passion for fresh and locally sourced cuisine. He has experience working in some of the country’s top kitchens and was, most recently, executive chef of Four Seasons Hotel Vancouver and YEW seafood + bar, a proud Ocean Wise partner. Bell’s diverse background includes seven seasons on Food Network Canada’s Cook Like a Chef and he has been recognized as Canada’s Chef of the Year at Food Service and Hospitality magazine’s 2014 Pinnacle Awards, Best Overall and Rising Star by Where magazine and Top 40 Foodies Under 40 by Western Living magazine in 2008.
Chef Bell joins the team at Vancouver Aquarium and its nationwide Ocean Wise sustainable seafood conservation program on July 4th.

GMO Whistleblower Steven Druker to Speak
Nov 01, 2015 07:04PM
Steven M. Druker, a public interest attorney, will present a program, How the Venture to Genetically Engineer Our Food Has Subverted Science, Corrupted Government and Systemically Deceived the Public, on November 10 and 11 in Phoenix and November 12 and 13 in Prescott. Since the release of his book Altered Genes, Twisted Truth, Druker has been lecturing at universities around the world.
Druker worked for years to learn the facts about the massive venture to restructure the genetic code of the world’s food supply. Founding the Alliance for Bio-Integrity, he initiated a lawsuit against the U.S. Food and Drug Administration that included for the first a group of scientific experts and spiritual leaders as co-plaintiffs challenging the policy of a federal administrative agency.
Druker has uncovered myriad distortions, deceptions and lies issued by scientists and scientific institutions on behalf of genetic engineering since it emerged in the 1970s. According to his book, this constitutes the most colossal and pernicious scientific fraud ever perpetuated, and has imposed unacceptable risks on human and environmental health.

- 16 Safely Get Into IRS Offshore Compliance
- 17 4 Types of IRS Voluntary Disclosure Programs
This is a very important topic for our clients around the world who are being misled by other attorneys and firms to take the time to read.
IRS offshore compliance enforcement is at an all-time high.
The IRS is pursuing major penalties for non-compliance, so it is absolutely critical you understand how the legal vs. accountant privilege works (in the real world).
Misplaced Reliance on Kovel
In recent months, we have received numerous inquiries from individuals coming to the realization that they were misled by their less experienced Offshore Disclosure Lawyer about being able to rely on a Kovel Letter for the preparation of taxes in Offshore Disclosure.
For these unsuspecting individuals, their attorney-client privilege and confidentiality may be at high risk.
*Misuse of Kovel is usually a problem with newer private practice tax attorneys (less than 5-10 years private practice law firm experience – it is generally not an issue with more experienced attorneys.)
The Attorney-Client Privilege is a serious benefit to clients. It facilitates near airtight confidentiality (short of the client indicating he or she is going to inflict death or serious bodily harm to another person).
Accountant Client Privilege
The Accountant-Client Privilege is not as awesome. While the privilege provides some protection, it does not extend to criminal investigation, and is limited in scope.
IRS Offshore Disclosure & Privileges
When a person is out of compliance for Offshore/Foreign related matters, there are various IRS offshore amnesty “voluntary disclosure” programs a person can submit to.
No matter which amnesty program a person submits to, there are generally five (5) main components to the submission:
- Evaluating and assessing the tax and legal situation in detail
- Submitting amended or original tax returns
- Submitting FBARs and International Informational Returns
- Preparing a detailed Legal Statement(s)
- Providing back-end support and defense
A Dually Licensed Attorney/EA or Attorney CPA Understands the Interplay Between Law and Taxes
Even simple tax situations are usually much more complicated than they first appear. It takes an attorney with an extensive legal and tax background (from years of legal and tax preparation experience) to effectively evaluate and asses all the tax and legal issues involving offshore disclosure, in order to piece them together properly to present your disclosure in the best light.
If the Attorney does not have experience preparing complex tax returns, they will not be able to complete this part of the task for you.
Your case is already at a disadvantage.
So what happens when your Attorney is not dually licensed, and is neither qualified to prepare your taxes nor answer your tax questions?
The attorney generally refers the case out to an accountant firm, EA, or CPA — and the trouble begins.
What is Kovel?
Kovel is a case ruling. It is not statutory law and it is not guaranteed to be upheld by a judge in a court of law.
A Kovel Letter is used by attorneys/clients in situations in which the attorney and/or client must communicate with another non-attorney accountant such as a CPA or Enrolled Agent, but the Attorney wants to try to extend the privileged communications beyond the Attorney, and to the Tax/Accounting Professional.
Misuse of Kovel in Offshore Disclosure
For many newer firms in over their head on tax related issues.
They refer you to an Accountant for any tax related questions – and it can take weeks for the Accountant to come back with an answer — especially if it is during tax season, and/or International Tax is not the main area of tax the accountant practices.
You start to get nervous, and are unsure what the Attorney is actually doing for you. You want a “second opinion” about your situation — who better to ask than your accountant, right?
This has three (3) major drawbacks for your IRS offshore disclosure:
- The IRS clock is still ticking away…
- It is not covered under Kovel, and
- It significantly increases the likelihood that you may break the privilege and jeopardize your confidentiality.
Being Dually Licensed Has a Big “Real World” Benefit
When some lesser experienced attorneys are not dually licensed as an EA or CPA (and do not have the litigation or trial experience to see how privilege plays out in the real world) they are quick to dismiss the dual-license, by intentionally mis-categorizing the purpose of being dually licensed to try to fool the general public (you).
There are thousands of dually licensed Attorneys (Attorney/Enrolled Agent and Attorney/CPA) in all different areas of tax.
The main two privileges are the Attorney-Client Privilege and Accountant-Client Privilege. The Accountant privilege does not extend to legal matters or criminal investigations.
And, being dually licensed does not extend the Attorney-Privilege to Accountant related matters.
That is not the purpose of being dually licensed.
While being dually licensed does not extend the Attorney-Client Privilege to all non-legal tax related issues, there is a much bigger benefit when it involves Offshore Disclosure.
It helps protect against a client mistakenly breaking the privilege by talking about legal matters with a CPA, which are not covered under Kovel.
Common Example from Clients Who First Used a Non-Dually Licensed Less-Experienced Attorney
Your Attorney refers you off to some accountant, whom you do not really know. During your tax talk with the accountant, the accountant starts to ask some more background questions, and the conversation becomes more “casual.”
During these communications, you accidentally divulge legal information about your case that would have been protected had you told your Attorney.
Since the discussion turned to legal, those communications about your case are no longer protected as they would have been had you been talking with your dually-licensed attorney about those same legal matters.
Your Confidentiality and Offshore Disclosure Submission is Now at Risk
This is a much bigger problem: if there is any issue about willfulness that you may have divulged to the accountant — your entire case may be compromised.
While the IRS cannot interview your Attorney, the IRS has the right to investigate your CPA.
Now you have to trust that your accountant will not disclose this information if:
- Your streamlined or Reasonable Cause is audited due to legal issues involving willfulness that you may have leaked to the CPA
- The accountant’s practice is audited or investigated by the IRS (OPR) and all his or her files may be compromised, or
- The accountant needs it for leverage to defend against other investigations the IRS or other agency is taking against him/her.
And, if the IRS issues your CPA a summons or subpoenas about his files (or your file specifically) — the information you told the CPA about your legal issues or concerns are not protected.
What is to prevent the CPA from blowing the whistle on you, if he or she gets jammed up? Just look what happened to Paul Manafort.
While a Kovel Letter extends very-limited protection with an Accountant, misplaced reliance on it can get you in very serious trouble.
Now, your privilege is compromised.
Other Considerations for Selecting an Offshore Disclosure Attorney
Masters in Tax Law (LL.M.)
A Masters in Tax Law requires 15-20 graduate level tax law classes. This type of education provides a great foundation to best understand the highly complex areas of law involving international tax.
The Attorneys have Extensive Offshore Disclosure Experience
At Golding & Golding, we have handled several hundred disclosures (OVDP, IRM Voluntary Disclosure, Streamlined and Reasonable Cause) for clients around the world in nearly 70-countries.
We have the knowledge and experience to help you get compliant.
Our attorneys have handled many complex litigation cases. We are routinely retained as consultants on international tax related matters involving offshore disclosure and divorce, litigation, business and corporate matters.
Board Certified Tax Law Specialist Credential
Once an Attorney earns the prestigious Board Certified Tax Law Specialist credential, it proves to the general public that the attorney is dedicated to tax law, and has real tax law practice experience as an Attorney.
Few tax attorneys have passed the tax speciality exam (regarded as one of the most difficult tax exams in the country) — and met the additional education, experience, and recommendation requirements necessary for certification.
Once a person becomes “Board Certified in Tax,” it shows they have met the following requirements:
- Advanced tax education
- Extensive tax law experience
- Attorney & Judge recommendations for certification
In California for example, there are 200,000 active Attorneys, with tens of thousands of Attorneys practicing in some area of tax — and only 350 Tax Attorneys have successfully earned the designation.
Less than 1% of Attorneys nationwide have earned the credential.

Kabwe Central PF member of parliament Tutwa Ngulube says Ministry of Agriculture Permanent Secretary Julius Shawa must learn to be polite when talking about serious and sensitive matters that hinge on other people’s livelihood.
Ngulube was reacting to Shawa’s statement that he could not conclude that Zambia would record a poor harvest owing to the late delivery of inputs because farmers were very resilient and could adapt to any conditions.
“The statement from the Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Agriculture is a very careless statement. That statement is very injurious and it’s an insult to the farmers and a person who is responsible for the failure to deliver inputs on time should not actually tease the farmers. Does that Julius Shawa even know that farmers use the same crops they grow to send children to school and to buy medicals for their animals? That statement by Mr Shawa should be condemned in the greatest sense and then in future, we should learn to be polite when talking about serious and sensitive matters of this nature,” Ngulube said.
Ngulube said it was embarrassing for the PS to advise farmers to adapt because it showed that he did not care how the farmers were feeling.
“When you tell farmers they will adapt, in short you are trying to say that you don’t care how the farmers are feeling and it’s an embarrassment any way for a Permanent Secretary to say the farmers will adapt, they are resilient. Adapt to what? To poverty? We are already suffering so why should we adapt to some more suffering? That is not the reason why people elect governments. People elect governments to better their lives, to change things. But, if the Permanent Secretary can come up with such a statement, well then its embarrassing and its actually unfortunate that he can come out in the open with such a statement,” said Ngulube.

Finding the Next Earth (2011)
Tietoja kohteesta Finding the Next Earth
Join astronomers as they enter the final lap in a race to find a planet capable of sustaining life, a world like ours, the next Earth. See the launch of Frances CoRot and Americas Kepler missions, and the smoking hot worlds they discover. See a controversial and tantalizing discovery of a planet where life could exist in a strange twilight zone, that is, if the planet really exists. Astronomers are working to determine what conditions are necessary for life to exist, and they are building the radical James Webb Space Telescope, a spacecraft that can look at the atmosphere around a planet and reveal whether or not life as we know it actually exists. It could be the greatest discovery in human history and it could change how we see ourselves.


The French and German economy ministers, in a joint statement to be published in European newspapers Thursday, call for a strengthened eurozone with a common budgetary mechanism and tools to avoid the kind of debt problems Greece is suffering.
"It's time to strengthen the eurozone by way of the EU's biggest reform," Emmanuel Macron and his German counterpart Sigmar Gabriel said in the comments published by France's Le Figaro, Britain's The Guardian, Germany's Die Welt, Spain's El Pais and other European dailies.
The German and French ministers also stressed that "a stronger eurozone should be the core of a deepened EU."
The current set up has "faults" which must be repaired "so that the euro maintains its promise of economic prosperity and, more broadly, prevents Europe from drifting towards discontent and divisions," the French and German ministers said.
"We must reconcile general European interests and national interests," they added, alluding to "anti-European forces" developing in some EU nations.
French economy ministry sources said that the initiative to better knit the eurozone had two main strands: a common budget capacity and solidarity mechanisms to be rapidly available to help "countries in difficulty".
The call comes as indebted Greece's eurozone partners and its creditors in the EU and the International Monetary Fund seek a deal by Friday, when Athens must repay 300 million euros to the IMF as part of a multi-billion euro bailout deal.
It also comes as British Prime Minister David Cameron seeks EU reforms and "a better deal for Britain" ahead of an in-out membership referendum he has promised by 2017.
Macron and Gabriel, who is also Germany's vice chancellor, called for "an embryo euro area budget" and "a fiscal capacity over and above national budgets" to act as economic stabilisers.
This could mean, for example, a common fund to quickly help national economies in difficulty, a French ministry source said.
For the wider EU of 28 nations they propose "new steps" towards a better integrated internal market with a targeted approach in some key sectors, such as energy and hi-tech.

Although the last pair of jeans, fits better than anything I can buy, I’m not totally finished with TJ906. I know that TJ906 will give me a perfect fitting pair. I mean that: PERFECT. But the last 4 hours of fitting seemed to be a see-saw dance around the issue. Fix the back and the front wrinkled. Fix the front and the back develops bad wrinkles. Repeat. For 4 hours, REPEAT. I decided to finish the last pair, and wear them, but to work on my fitting issues with a simpler pattern. I’m turning my attention to TJ902:
This is a classic slacks pattern. It has a one piece front and back with straight waistband and optional inseam pocket or front zip. Trousers and slacks do not fit as closely to the body as jeans. They are somewhat easier to fit because of that fact. Easier to sew, because of the fewer pieces. For my fitting journey, I’ll be using the front fly, but not the pocket. The hem circumference should finish about 18″, a width I think is very flatterimg for me.
I didn’t start the fitting process by checking sizes or even tracing the pattern. (All sizes are given on a large heavy, white sheet of paper.) I started with The Threads Croquis and my tape measure. An idea keeps bubbling into my mind. The idea that my bu!t is not shaped as expected of a 6+ decade-old woman. Instead of the flat backside, mine is well-rounded due to the walking I’ve done for years and the 2 flights of steps I take daily (multiple times) because some of the essential living quarters in my house are located down stairs. People read my description of fitting issues and immediately suggest the flat-seat adjustments. Let’s just take that off the table now. Here is the silhouette of my back seen from the side:
Knowing the black pants would be difficult to see, I added a tracing. That’s not flat. Whatever my fitting issues may be, flat rear is not one of them. I began to wonder if perhaps my rear were higher than the standard.
The standard is that the widest part of the body, will be the hip/derriere and will be between 7 and 9 inches lower than the natural waist.
That’s when I decided the Threads Croquis and some additional measurements might help me. I tied elastic around my waist and again around my thigh crease. (The thigh crease establishes the seat balance line). I marked both sides of my body with straight lines and then made tick marks every 2″. On the croquis I drew additional lines to indicate where I intended to take these additional measurements.
I took not only total circumference at these points, but also measured side to side across the front. Then I made 1 more measurement. I turned sideways and looking in the mirror wrapped the measuring tape around at the visibly widest point. I slid the tape up and down to be sure that visible was the same as actual. On this last measurement, I was interested in how far down my widest point occurred down from the natural waistline. That measurement is 6.5″.
Remember I said 7-9″ was the standard? My hip measurement occurs 1/2″ above the average. Should that matter? I have a feeling that when they draft patterns, they place the largest point at 8″ from the natural waist. If that’s true, then the widest point of the pattern is occurring 1.5″ below my widest area. Is that significant? Well, consider my blouses. I know they design patterns for the 5’6″ gal and I’m only 5’3″. Somewhere somehow, I need to adjust for the difference in height of 3″. I can shorten at the hem. When I do that, I must add width from the waist down. But when I consider that my backwaist length (the length from nape of neck to waist) is 1″ shorter than the patterns and I shorten above the waist, I no longer need to add width to the tissue (or blouse).. Why? Because the widest part of the blouse pattern has been aligned with the widest point of my hip (and the narrowest is aligned with my hoped-for waist.)I’m considering that something similar may be happening when I fit pants.
Armed with a new measurements, including the additional ones just made, I clear the cutting table and spread the pattern.

i am a down right noob when it comes to flash fictions, short stories, and poetry; the modern juxtaposition of daily reveries, motions and dimensions, indirect similes. but it is never too late to learn, after class today i picked a book: a how-to on literature, feels like an URGENT need because my writing seems to have again come back to a point where it loses a sense of clarity, coherence, and direction on certain kinds of writing (esp fiction)–although this time it obviously is much better than the previous times. i thought i could lend myself a hand…
i read the poetry below in jkt, a few weeks ago and i read it twice and i still didn't really get it. and then i asked bening, hey i have just read two interesting pieces of poetry, but i don't really understand. with her voice my perspective had somehow shifted, angles skewed, allowing me to absorb the writer's intention, whether partially or fully. it felt like a giant relief, a breath of satisfaction, a sense of fulfillment–like finding some hidden shapes or patterns in a profane scenery. it takes time, but once you find them, you won't look away and let go. because they've been there forever, only waiting to be unraveled.

I Lied to My Parents When They Asked How I Lost My Car Keys
I couldn’t say
I had been in the graveyard
with a boy who
dropped out of my high school – that we
walked between the headstones and woke
ghosts, let them
climb up from
the ground onto our shoulders, rustling
like paper, kissing our cheeks with
lips that felt like moths’ feet, stretching
spider-fingers into our pockets, taking
everything that shone.
I don’t know why
I didn’t care
when I saw them swallow my keys.
Maybe I figured
the dead get hungry
or that they knew better –
and I didn’t want to go home anyway.
In high school, we joked that
my best friend would become a seasoned fortune teller
because she knew her Chinese Astrology
and how to interpret dreams.
Once, she read my palm
for kicks, I said.
I didn’t believe in fate –
and this made her laugh.
She knew I wanted her to tell me
that I really was braver than I thought
and stronger than I felt.
That I would never get old.
Instead, she smirked
and traced my life-line – a crease
that curved down to my wrist.

Abubakar Nuhu-Fikpo, Director-General, National Directorate of Employment (NDE) says the federal government remains committed to lifting more Nigerians out of poverty.
Nuhu-Fikpo spoke on Thursday in Owerri at the inauguration of a training on the Extended Special Public Works Programme (ESPW).
Imo NDE Coordinator, Ngozi Ihenacho, who represented him said the 540 trainees, 180 persons from three zones, earlier benefitted from the Basic Business Training.
He explained that the ESPW was an offshoot of the Public Works Programme organised to capture 774,000 nationwide.
The official said the initiative was established to address unemployment in the country.
Ihenacho hailed President Muhammadu Buhari for the “step in the right direction” to assist the lower class.
“I urge you participants to show commitment and take instructions from trainers”, NAN quoted him as saying.
“Those who perform well will have a chance of receiving grants for either start-up of new businesses or enhancement of existing ones.”
Also on Thursday, the government said in the past two months, N58 billion has been shared to Nigerians under Conditional Cash Transfer (CCT).

Immediate Dentures: the Way to Have a Beautiful Smile the Same Day Your Teeth are Extracted!
Most people don’t want to be seen without their teeth. Patients often ask us if they can have their teeth removed without having to wait for their new dentures. We hear “I’m a nurse at the hospital and need to be able to speak,” or “I’m working in the public and can’t be seen without my teeth!”
But these aren’t the only reasons patients want Immediate Dentures on the same day their teeth are extracted. Often, the reasons are much more personal:
- “My (husband, wife, friend) has never seen me without teeth and I cannot go home without something to take their place”
- “I’ve seen people with no teeth or dentures. I don’t want my face to sink in”
- “Only old people don’t have teeth. I’m way too young to look old, like that.”
We understand losing your teeth is emotionally traumatic, in and of itself. A persons self esteem is tied up in their smile. That’s why we make Immediate Dentures for those who need them at the time of their surgery. Each one is made of premium materials and is customized, using high-quality denture teeth Dr. Curry specifically hand-selects to complement your individual facial contours.
Our goal is to give you a beautiful, natural-looking smile.
Here is what you can expect, if you would like an Immediate Denture at the time of your surgery:
A. We’ll need to see you for a denture appointment approximately 3 weeks prior to the date you select for your surgery. At that time, Dr. Curry will help you with tooth color and shape selections, and will assist you in determining how your denture will look. Impressions and specialized measurements are taken during this first appointment, too.
B. At a second appointment, we’ll need to take additional measures to confirm that the denture set-up is correct and is both aesthetically and functionally pleasing. We’ll also ask you to look over the final denture set-up before it is sent away for processing. This step is very important, as it ensures quality control prior to the day of your surgery.
C. On the day of your surgery, Dr. Curry will use a clear surgical template made from your pre-op impression, to surgically model and contour your tissues. This helps the Immediate Denture fit better. Then, Dr. Curry stitches the gum with sutures that dissolve in 3-4 days and puts your Immediate Denture in place.

Food Tour Budapest
Nora Hegedus is the tour organizer and guide of her own culinary walking tour business, called Food Tour Budapest. We have conducted an interview with her.
What are the top three Food Tours in Budapest do you organised that are the most popular?
I organize 2 walking food tours and 3 different wine tasting events. The most popular food tour is my culinary tour, which gives an overall idea about the Hungarian food, tastes, drinks, ingredients and history.
How unique are your food tours compared to competitors?
My culinary walking tour goes beyond the traditional Hungarian cuisine. We combine traditional food tastings, historical food places, (like a historical Café and the famous Great Market Hall), and show new places, venues as well. At most of the places we stop, we eat and drink comfortably seated, so the guest do not get exhausted because of the lot of walking by the end.
What is included in one basic package? How big is one group?
We visit 6-8 places on our culinary walking tour, starting with a fruit brandy, salami and a nice cheese selection, gulyás soup, a traditional main dish (small portion), cookies and coffee. The groups are 2-8 people.
What if travelers would like to have a special addition to be made to the itinerary you have planned? Are there additional charges?
If somebody would like to change the places or the offered food, we can certainly discuss that. The prices changed accordingly, can be more or less as well.
What inspired you to create this business?
I love food, to talk about it love to eat and also I am a certified cook, but worked in the last 18 years with tourists as well. It is all a nice combination of things I like to do.
