Finding ways to cut your contribution is an all-year task, writes Anthony Keane
Tax time has finished for another year, but anyone who wants a wealthier future should be looking at minimising their taxation costs all year round. Savers, investors and retirees have access to many tax breaks on the personal finance front that can save thousands of dollars now, and much more once they retire.
Financial strategist Theo Marinis says when it comes to tax breaks, people are “often settling on a she’ll be right mate” attitude and missing out on money-saving opportunities because they just don’t know about them and fail to seek advice. “Ask questions,” is his simple message.
Here are some samples of tax breaks people should be thinking about all the time, not just in the June rush.
Financial advisers say super is the king of all tax breaks, with just 15 per cent tax payable on income within your fund (compared with marginal tax rates outside super of up to 46.5 per cent) and the chance to save thousands of dollars a year through salary sacrifice.
Marinis says super is “not particularly sexy” for young savers, but its appeal increases dramatically the older we get. “It is the biggest legal tax-free arrangement in Australia, the world probably, because when you get to pension age you don’t have to pay any tax at all.”
Salary sacrifice enables employees to pump some of their gross salary into super, paying tax of 15 per cent rather than their marginal tax rate. It works best for people on higher incomes, but remember there are government limits on how much of this type of contribution you can put in each year before being stung by penalty taxes.
Self-employed people can cut their tax bill by making tax-deductible contributions into super every year.
AMP financial planner Mark Haynes says our super system offers generous tax breaks for retirees, or anyone over age 60 who uses a transition to retirement strategy. Retiring super fund members can choose to switch their super from accumulation phase into an account-based pension, which is still commonly known as an allocated pension.
“Investment earnings of any amount from pension income within a super fund are completely tax free,” Haynes says. The catch with these pensions is there are aged-based minimum withdrawal limits, starting at 4 per cent of your account balance for age 55-64 and rising to 14 per cent for those aged over 95.
Golsborough Financial Services director John Oliver says people have no obligation to switch from the accumulation phase – paying 15 per cent tax – to the tax-free pension phase, and some well-off retirees would rather pay the tax than draw down money they don’t need. “I would suggest people consider starting an account-based pension when retired rather than leaving it in super, but first consider your overall tax position,” he says.
More flexible than super but with not quite the bang for your buck, insurance bonds can be a handy tax break for higher income earners because they are tax-paid investments, where earnings are taxed in the bond at 30 per cent and do not affect the investor’s taxable income. “Think of it as the most tax-effective product after super,” says Ian Campbell, managing director of KeyInvest.
“If you are on a higher tax rate than 30 per cent, there’s a tax effectiveness.” Campbell says insurance bonds are good for education savings or leaving money to grandchildren outside of a will, but they are best used over a 10-year time frame so may be unsuitable for some.
Dividends paid by Aussie companies are commonly fully franked, which means the company has already paid 30 per cent tax on its profit so the investor does not have to. The franking credits that come with dividends deliver a bonus to super funds and retirees, who get a refund of any of the 30 per cent company tax paid in excess of their own tax rate.
People saving up to buy a home can consider a First Home Saver Account, where interest is taxed at just 15 per cent. The Federal Government also makes a contribution of up to $1020 each year, but understand the rules before jumping in. Another savings account strategy to cut tax is for couples to structure their accounts correctly, Goldsborough’s Oliver says. “You should have the interested credited to the person who is paying the least amount of tax.”
Controversial, dangerous, but also potentially powerful when asset prices are rising, negative gearing is when you claim a tax deduction for expenses, such as interest paid, that exceed income generated by an investment. This means the investor relies on capital growth to make money, as they only get their tax rate back on the investment losses – not the full amount lost.
“It’s a big tax break, but if you make a loss and get a tax deduction, it has still cost you,” Oliver says.
REBATES FOR SENIORS
AMP’s Haynes says as well as benefiting from a tax-free super income, a retiree also can earn other sources of income that have tax concessions.

Tia Spence will represent Hawaii June 23 in an international swimsuit pageant featuring 101 Hooters Girls from around the world.
Contestants traveling to Miami, Florida for the pageant were selected from more than 18,000 employees working at 430 Hooters restaurants worldwide.
The winning contestant will receive the $50,000 cash first prize and the title Miss Hooters International for one year. She also will be featured in Hooters Magazine, a company calendar and national TV commercials.
The pageant will be televised on FX at 4 p.m. Hawaii time.


Two new sports centres are planned in a multi-million pound shake-up of leisure facilities.
One will be built in Brinnington while the other – serving Edgeley, Adswood and the town centre – could be built at Edgeley Park.
Other leisure centres across the borough would share up to an £8.5m investment to bring their facilities up to scratch.
The plan would also entail:
- A stay of execution for Avondale baths until the Edgeley centre is built
- The closure of Peel Moat leisure centre in Heaton Moor
- A £1m investment in the flagship Grand Central leisure centre in Stockport town centre.
No site has yet been chosen for the planned facility in Edgeley.
John Smith, the council’s leisure chief, said he would look at Edgeley Park as a possibility.
He said: "About 18 months ago one of the firms interested in taking over County had a vision of building a brand new community facility with everything in one place. It’s not beyond the realms of possibility."
The plans, which have taken a year to draw up, will be open for consultation for the next three months.
That Avondale baths will be saved for now comes as a huge relief to campaigners. A year ago, there was a huge public backlash after town hall chiefs announced it would close because of a massive repair bill. Coun Smith said the council had been forced into a rethink as a result.
But it is not clear whether the Edgeley facility would have a swimming pool.
Sheila Bailey, councillor for Edgeley and Cheadle Heath, said: "If Avondale is staying open for the foreseeable future, that is a massive victory for the people. Should the council at some time in the future consider a replacement, the line in the sand is that it must have a swimming pool. Nothing else will do."
The new £1m facility in Brinnington would replace the dilapidated Lapwing Centre and would be built on the same lines as Broadstone Mill in Reddish. The Lapwing Centre would remain open until then. The £1m investment in Grand Central would mean the heating is fixed and two new studios built.

India is a multi religious and multi cultural country from its known history.Greatness of our nation is highlighted by the unity in diversity maintained by various sections of Indian society.
Secularism in the multi-cultural, multi-lingual and plural society of India a significant role to play in reducing religious conflicts and persecution, upholding human rights and on the whole building a „strong‟ and „unified‟ nation.
Secularism has its origin in western countries and it is related to the separation of the church from the state, which gives the state a position of neutrality between different religions, while at the same time, it guarantees all citizens right to adhere any religion.
In Indian secularism emerged as a basic political ideology in the course of the Indian national struggle for independence. It emerged as the concept of Secular Nationalism in opposition to the nationalism based on the interests of one or the other of the religious communities, therefore also called communalism.
Concept of secularism is based on two basic principles:
(i) Separation of religion from politics.
(ii) Acceptance of religion as purely and strictly private affairs of individuals having nothing to do with the state.
Communalism can be considered an ideology which states that society is divided into religious communities whose interests differ and are at times even opposed to each other. The antagonism practiced by members of one community against the people of other community and religion can be termed communalism.
Secularism even though in modern terms a new concept for India, but Emperor Ashoka was the first great emperor to announce, as early as third century B.C. that, the state would not prosecute any religious sect. In his 12th Rock Edit, Ashoka made an appeal not only for the toleration of all religion sects but also to develop a spirit of great respect toward them. He pleaded for restrain of criticism of other religious sects. He asked people to become perfect in the scriptures of other religions.
In medieval India the Sufi and Bhakti movements bond the people of various communities together ? with love and peace. The leading lights of these movements were Khwaja Moinuddin Chisti, Baba Farid, ? Sant Kabir Das, Guru Nanak Dev, Saint Tukaram and Mira Bai. They contributed to the development of a composite culture in such a manner that nobody dares to challenge them.
The Mughal emperor the great Akbar also to a great extent promoted the policy of toleration of different religions. His propagation of Din-e-Illahi (Divine faith) and Sulh-e-kul (Peace with all) were ? highly inspired by the spirit of secularism.
The idea of Secular Nationalism became dominant in the Indian national movement under the leadership of Mahatma Gandhi and Jawaharlal Nehru. It provided an ideological framework within which the many religious communities of India as well as the plurality of traditional linguistic caste and ethnic cultures (in the formation of which one or other of the religions had played a dominant role) could participate together with the adherents of secular ideologies like Liberalism and Socialism.
The British administration deliberately created rift between the two communities through favouring one against the other. The sphere head of resistance was flattened through offering more concessions and privileges. The Hindu community were generously supported and encouraged at a time when the Muslims rose against the British. Similarly the Muslim community got the patronage of the British when the Hindu nationalism was on the rise.
The ideology and practice of secularism has been most severely criticized by the Hindu fundamentalists. They attack secularism as the principle behind the appeasement of minorities, particularly Muslims. The rise of Hindu fundamentalists create fear in the minority and lead to the rise of communalism.
The communalist tries to divide the society on the basis of religion and they are not doing so for the sole good of the religion, but to attain materialistic benefits in the name of religion.
The Preamble to the Constitution of India signifies that India is a secular state. The Preamble reflects the way of life adopted by Indian citizens for themselves after independence. In fact every civilization has also been a mirror of way of life as well as reflecting movement of human spirit. Religion in each civilizastion has indicated about the faith of human beings in absolute values and a way of life to realize them.CGPCS Notes brings Prelims and Mains programs for CGPCS Prelims and CGPCS Mains Exam preparation.

BK1-8 Flooded Refrigerant Evaporators
This report summarizes a study of refrigerant flooded evaporators (FREs) done for HTRI by Prof. Ralph Webb of Pennsylvania State University. The work consisted of assembling a data bank of operating conditions for several industrial evaporators and developing computer models to predict these data, starting with the current version of the HTRI RKH-2 Computer Program. It was found that typical refrigerant evaporators achieve relatively high boiling heat transfer coefficients due to high velocity two-phase forced convection across shallow tube bundles. The present HTRI RKH Computer Program was developed for kettle reboilers and was found to give conservative predictions of the heat duty of refrigerant flooded evaporators. Webb developed a new calculation structure which better fitted the geometry and process conditions for FREs, using recent literature methods for heat transfer and pressure drop. The resulting Pennsylvania State model gives good prediction of the available data for R-11 evaporators, and the model is used to study a variation of design parameters.
Due to the limited applicability of the Pennsylvania State model, a more generalized model was developed by HTRI which is presented as a preliminary version of a PC computer program. Additional work was done to determine how the RKH-2 Computer Program Mod. 0.10-1.06 horizontal thermosiphon option could be used to simulate these evaporator data, and recommendations are given.

"End of An
Larry Manuian, Manager, Sacramento Smokeys
Larry Manuian, who founded
and managed the Sacramento Smokeys for 62 years, passed this week at age 90 of
Friends and former Smokeys
players have spent the Fourth of July weekend fondly reminiscing about 'the ol'
Manuian was a legend in
Sacramento baseball circles for managing the Smokeys, one of the "
longest lasting independent semi-pro baseball teams in the world." The Smokeys battled
teams from the Bay Area and Reno in the Western Baseball Association League.
He estimated that his club sent
30 players to the major leagues, including Butch Metzger,
John McNamara, Woodie Held and
F.P. Santangelo among
Steve Brown, who called Manuian "the most
colorful character" and a dear friend, also credited him for
building teams that were a hybrid of former professional players who wanted to maintain
their baseball skills with top college prospects from the area.
Brown played in the mid-70s for the Smokeys.
Following two seasons with the California Angels (1983-84), he was a fixture on the Smokeys
pitched staff from 1989 to 2006.
"Larry didn't like to describe his team as 'semi-pro'," Brown remembers. "He preferred the term
Szackas, who played in the Phillies organization in the early
1970s, remembers Manuian with fondness. "He's done so much for baseball in
"Larry was the
most lovable, generous guy to play for," said Szackas, who joined the Smokeys in the mid-70s and played
through the early 199os.
Szackas remembers going with Manuian to the
batting cages at Scandia Park in North Highlands, and winning bets with bystanders
who couldn't believe the 60-year-old could touch, let alone hit, the 90 mph speed coming
out of the pitching machine. In games, the team manager would insert himself third in
the lineup ahead of the power-hitting youngster; a testament to moxie more than
motivated his players with the promise of pizza after the games. Then, he if they won,
he would take the Smokeys out to Luigi's on Stockton Blvd. "He would treat not
just his players, but the player's girl friend, and her girl friend…he'd treat everyone to pizza and beer,"
Szackas said. "Truly,
a great guy."
"The best part
is we rarely ever lost," he recalls.
Besides the Smokeys, two things Manuian was
proud of were his Armenian heritage and playing for the state championship Manhart Junior
American Legion team in 1937.

Junior American Legion teammates
Wally Westlake and Bill Wright. (courtesy of the
Wally Westlake Collection)
who played 10 seasons in the big leagues, and drove in Manhart's winning run in the state
championship game against Long Beach, remembers him well.
"He was a character," chuckles the 90-year-old
recalls a game when Manuian
got the bunt sign, but had his own ideas of what to do with the stick. "He would purposely bunt
foul just so he could swing away!" Manuian played centerfield and batted fifth on
the champion Manhart club.
"He wanted to
play pro ball so bad he could hardly stand it," Westlake said.
Ron King also remembers that Manuian "sure
liked to play."
During a 2010
interview, which can be viewed on YouTube, Manuian stated that the Smokeys were featured in
national media like USA Today, Entertainment Tonight and David Letterman. "We don't get
paid for that, we're just nobodys. But, then again, the Smokeys are a famous team."
"It keeps the
guys off the streets," he added, in his colorful way.
Brown suggest that comments like these were examples of Larry "being a
Last year, Gary Szackas and
others helped organize a reunion to allow the Smokeys alumni to pay respects to Manuian
who was battling cancer. He's happy now that he did.
"His passing," Szackas adds
whistfully, "represents an end of an era."
Services for Manuian will be
held in Sacramento at 2 p.m. on July 7 at the North Sacramento Funeral Home at 725 El Camino
Ave. A viewing will be held the previous evening.
He will be interred in Fresno
where the Manuian family originated.

SRINAGAR: The department of Physical Education, Islamia College Srinagar organised a two day Nundkul-Gangbal trek for the adventure loving students and staff of the college.
An official statement issued here said a party of twenty four under the supervision of college’s director sports Dr Altaf ur Rehman started the on-foot trek from Naranag through Botshree mountain at 8:00 am and with some rest a Turukol Meadow reached the Nundkul lake at 2:30 pm. After pitching the tents, the party had a round trek of the Nundkul lake on day one.
On second day, the party started early to spend more and more time at the Gangbal lake. The students were briefed about the historical and cultural importance of the lake in Kashmiri folklore.
“The swimming knowing students and staff highly enjoyed a dip in cool, clear and deep clean waters of the lake. The same day some of the staff and students returned back to Srinagar following the same route of Turunkul, Botshree and Naranag,” the statement said adding that the department is organising a “great” lake trek for its adventure club student members very soon.

The characters are not quite as one-dimensional anymore albeit still far from intriguing and the story flows much smoother. Although the plot is getting a bit repetetive and the dialogues still appear clipped, I'm game for Part 3, only because I want to know what happens next.
Dec 17, Elif rated it liked it. Shelves: not-own , portuguese , The magical Egyptian legends brought vividly to life in their entire magnificent splendor! I have always been fascinated by ancient Egypt for it is a mystifying place of myth and legend, archaic treasures and past rituals that intrigue and dazzle. What makes the Ramses series stand-out is how it blends together historical fact with magical fantasy which adds a touch of supernatural suspense to an exploration of the past.
Gods and Pharaohs, sorcery and evil interwoven amid a convincing world fille The magical Egyptian legends brought vividly to life in their entire magnificent splendor! It is an exciting, intense read which will delight any budding explorer or adventurer who dabbles in the dark arts and whose heart lies with the past.
And as the new master of work, Nefer the silent bears the ultimate responsibility for all he oversees. Thefts, murders and floods, sorcery and evil, Nefer and Ubekhet must take on this and more as they prepare for the grandest burial Egypt has ever known… I was so impressed by this breathtaking book full of shocking drama, wonderful premise and colorful characters.
It is definitely my chosen book of View 1 comment. Jun 26, J. Else rated it really liked it Shelves: ancient-egypt. Book 2 is just as good as the first. This book seemed more full of action. Lots of plot movement, which kept the pages turning!
Paneb's strengths are his passion to his craft, loyalty to his friends, and energy which helps enliven the others in his crew to keep pushing themselves. He is still unfaithful to his wife, though his love for her seems to be growing. I hope to see more maturity in the next book. For now, I still find myself with that love-fustration relationship with this character. Jacq Book 2 is just as good as the first. Jacq does a masterful job of casting suspeicion on different crew members as to who the traitor is!
Someone is working against the Place of Truth, and Jacq keeps shifting your focus on different characters. You're left just as "in the dark" as Nefer is, the master of the Place of Truth who searches for this mysterious evildoer! Jacq marked time better in this book. Some chapters start by saying what year it is in the pharaoh's reign. I'm glad he had greater detail in the passage of time. It helped outline the time it took to construct a royal tomb and temple.
Time passes quickly in each chapter, so it helped a lot to have time more defined. Jacq's details about Egyptian religious beliefs and about the Afterlife and the world around them is so beautiful and enticing. I just love, LOVE these details! It gives the ancient world a level of sophistication and enchantment.
It was a treat when Jacq ventured to Memphis and the great pyramids. I wish there had been more, but this book expanded its reach quite a bit compared to book 1. Each new site in this story was a delight. Another enjoyable book with an array of enjoyable and sometimes frustrating characters.
I can't wait for book 3! Jan 21, Sheffielder rated it liked it. While definitely readable, this book is a bit like a soap opera. We are presented with a series of mysterious happenings, but each of them is resolved within a page or three of being launched. As a result there is no really meaty puzzle to get your teeth into before the author explains all. By the end of the book, little of any significance seems to have changed, and even the old dog has been replaced by an identical new one with the same name.
Disappointing in that regard, but the easy writing While definitely readable, this book is a bit like a soap opera. Disappointing in that regard, but the easy writing style is enjoyable, and at pages you definitely get your money's worth. Feb 10, Phair rated it liked it Shelves: historical-fiction , audio-books.
I only listened to the abridged audio cassette version. Had already listened to Book 1 of the series so this was like revisiting old friends. I enjoyed it but felt this one had no real ending- just a lull in the action and a sense of foreboding for the future leading into the next book.
Nice period feel. Jan 12, Andrea rated it it was amazing. The stories are rich in history and culture and capture the lives of these artisans beautifully. Mar 15, Oscar Riba rated it liked it. Ends up being tedious. Dec 21, Hypatia rated it it was ok Shelves: historical. I'm not enjoying these as much as some of his other series. I suspect a poor translation though, rather than the story itself being bad. I'll finish it, but I definitely prefer his other work.

When China put the city of Wuhan under lockdown due to the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) on January 23, 2020, more than 11 million people were suddenly cut off from the rest of the country and the world at large. Even though the lockdown was lifted after 76 days in April, China’s economy continues to feel its impact.
A higher calling: Our commitment to the environment
From reusing waste heat to reducing waste disposal, tesa® is utilizing technology and ingenuity to minimize its impact on the environment.
16 Jun 2020
However, there was some good news. The halt of vehicular traffic and industrial activities led to a reduction in air pollution across Wuhan by as much as 63%. Experts estimated that this prevented the deaths of more than 10,000 across China as a whole. While this does not diminish the adverse impacts of COVID-19, it does highlight the indelible link between businesses, industries and the environment. For too long, short-term gains of the economy have been achieved at the expense of the planet.
As a member of the global community, we believe that it is not enough to do good business — we must be actively engaged in the business of doing good. Sustainability, then, cannot exist merely as a buzzword to grace advertisements and annual reports. Instead, it is about putting plans into action across the entire value chain — from the procurement of raw materials and recycling to the suppliers we work with.
The following is a showcase of what we at tesa® have achieved thus far.
Around the world, our company is known mostly for its self-adhesive products and solutions. However, at its core, we are a chemical company — and chemical companies, by their very nature, bear a tremendous amount of responsibility in managing natural resources and raw materials, as well as their overall impact on the environment. That’s why when the United Nations General Assembly created the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in 2015, designed as a “blueprint to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all”, we jumped at the chance to contribute.
In total, there are 17 SDGs that can be taken up by individuals, universities, governments and companies. As a member of the Global Compact of the United Nations since 2006, we decided to make contributions of our own by embedding a number of SDGs into our core processes, including affordable and clean energy (No. 7), decent work and economic growth (No. 8), responsible consumption and production (No. 12), as well as climate action (No. 13). Since then, the company has made significant headway on all fronts.
17 Sustainable Development Goals
In the past, our many facilities around the world were significant consumers of energy and emitters of carbon dioxide (CO2). When we took on the respective SDGs, these were areas we decided to focus on first.
We began by utilizing state-of-the-art resource-saving technologies. For example, steam and waste heat are byproducts of the production process that can be put to work. A combined cooling, heat and power system has been rolled out at our Offenburg plant while a combined heat and power system is now in operation at our Hamburg plant; these use steam and waste heat to heat water and spaces within the facilities themselves. In addition to energy efficiency, such efforts help reduce our overall CO2 emissions — and the numbers reflect this too. Compared to 2015, tesa reduced its CO2 emissions per metric ton of end product (market based) by 34.5% in 2019, with a further goal of hitting 50% by 2025.
Thanks to these and other similar efforts, many of our sites have attained International Organization for Standardization (ISO) certifications. So far, eight sites in Germany, China, Italy and the US have received ISO 14001, which certifies that they have maintained resource efficiency, waste reduction, as well as cost reduction. And while ISO 14001 is more focused on the qualitative nature of environmental impacts, ISO 50001 is more data-driven and, thus, more stringent. To that end, three of our sites have so far been ISO 50001-certified.
There is no way around it; waste simply cannot be avoided in the production of adhesives, coating tapes and cutting rolls. That said, there are many ways to produce high-quality products while maintaining a relatively low ecological footprint. The key is to increase resource efficiency, improve packaging reusability and reduce waste across the entire product life cycle.
For starters, waste avoidance and reduction is typically the top priority and the go-to option. Improvements in machinery and production processes do help in this regard, but a significant part of minimizing waste comes from avoiding unnecessary packaging. In addition, as much as possible, the company uses cardboard, reusable pallets and single-source plastic — all highly recyclable or reusable materials. Even the ink and adhesive used on labels do not prevent the packaging itself from being recycled. Furthermore, metal or aluminum are avoided across the entire supply chain unless absolutely necessary.
In terms of reusing and recycling, nearly all hazardous waste containing solvents and non-hazardous waste are recycled. Wherever possible, we utilize renewable and recycled raw materials as well. For example, most paper and cardboard materials can be easily recycled after use. The plan for the future is to avoid plastic packaging (such as shrink wraps) altogether, going instead with bio-based or recyclable films.
Disposal, then, is often the last resort, and we work hard to minimize this. In 2019, out of the 17,700 metric tons of waste produced, 15,500 metric tons (or 87.5%) were recycled. By the end of 2020, we want to reduce waste volume per metric ton of end product by a further two percentage points from the 2015 reference year.
However, just having lofty sustainable goals and processes in place are not quite enough. At the core of every successful operation are the people that run the business — and the same applies for sustainability efforts. Not only do we provide our external stakeholders with candid, transparent information on our sustainability goals, the company performs extensive internal awareness campaigns as well.
For instance, our annual “Big Ideas Instead of Waste” campaign, which in 2019 was held at our Offenburg plant in Germany. The campaign seeks to continuously find ways to reduce energy and resource use across every step of our products’ life cycles. In 2019, some 27 projects involving waste and energy reduction were implemented.
Furthermore, as part of our Sustainability Agenda, we have also committed to the ‘Business Ambition for 1.5°C’ initiative. The initiative requires companies to implement appropriate measures and collectively limit the global temperature rise to no more than 1.5°C. As technology progresses, it is possible to reduce the amount of energy used in administrative and manufacturing processes. That is why, by 2050, our goal is to reduce our overall emissions down to zero.
Meanwhile, there is only a decade left for individuals, universities, governments and companies to fulfill their environmental pledges. That’s because the SDGs were always conceived by the UN as part of their global action plan for sustainable development, also known as 2030 Agenda.
However, 10 years is but a drop of water in the ocean and not enough for businesses to overturn their impact on the environment. That’s why for us at tesa®, the journey has only just begun.

PRINCETON, NJ -- Less than half of Americans express an opinion about either the Occupy Wall Street movement's goals or the way it has conducted its protests. Those with an opinion are more likely to approve than disapprove.
The results are based on an Oct. 15-16 USA Today/Gallup poll. The Occupy Wall Street movement has attracted significant media attention for its nearly month-long protest of major U.S. financial institutions in New York, with similar demonstrations taking place in numerous other cities in the United States in recent weeks.
But the American public does not seem to be very familiar with the movement or its goals. Part of that may stem from the below-average level of attention Americans are paying to the news story. Fifty-six percent say they are following the story closely, including 18% who say very closely. The averages for more than 200 news events Gallup has tracked since the 1990s are 61% closely and 22% very closely.
Additionally, the lack of knowledge about the movement's goals may be because the movement has not had clearly defined leaders or goals. Rather, it appears to be united by grievances against the wealthiest Americans -- in particular, those who run major Wall Street financial institutions.
Republicans (57%), Democrats (57%), and independents (55%) are about equally likely to say they are following news about Occupy Wall Street closely.
Those who are closely following the news about Occupy Wall Street are more likely to approve than disapprove of the movement's goals, but even among this more attentive group there is a substantial degree of uncertainty, 44%. That drops to 27% among the most highly attentive group, those who are following the story "very closely." Among this group, 45% approve and 29% disapprove of the Occupy Wall Street movement's goals.
Americans paying attention to the news about the Occupy Wall Street movement are more inclined to have an opinion about the way the protests are being conducted, and are somewhat more likely to approve than disapprove of those methods.
Republicans are generally more likely to disapprove than approve of the movement's goals and methods, with the opposite true for Democrats. But half or more of Americans regardless of party affiliation do not have an opinion on either Occupy Wall Street's goals or its actions.
Public Largely Neutral Toward the Movement
Given Americans' apparent lack of knowledge about the Occupy Wall Street movement, it is not surprising to find a minority of Americans describing themselves as supporters (26%) or opponents (19%) of the movement. A majority, 52%, say they are neither supporters nor opponents, with another 4% not having an opinion.
Those closely following the news about the movement are more likely to describe themselves as supporters (38%) than opponents (24%). The percentage of supporters increases to 52% among those following the news "very closely."
Democrats are much more likely to say they are supporters (42%) than opponents (8%) of the Occupy Wall Street movement, with the remainder neutral (47%) or not having an opinion. Most Republicans, 55%, are neither supporters nor opponents, though Republicans are much more likely to oppose the movement (34%) than support it (9%).
The poll sought to contrast support for Occupy Wall Street with another prominent American movement, the Tea Party. In the poll, 22% describe themselves as Tea Party movement supporters, 27% as opponents, and 47% as neither. Gallup has typically found that about equal percentages of Americans are Tea Party supporters or opponents, with the greatest percentage neutral. Thus, the current level of public support for Occupy Wall Street is similar to that for the Tea Party movement.
Protesters have demonstrated in and around Wall Street for nearly a month, with the movement spreading and appearing to gain momentum around the U.S. At the same time, Americans are not highly familiar with the movement's activities or its goals. Those who are familiar with the movement tend to be more approving than disapproving of Occupy Wall Street, though with limited public knowledge about it, its supporters represent roughly a quarter of Americans.
It is unclear what the future course of Occupy Wall Street will be, and to what extent it will try to influence the outcomes of the 2012 elections or try to force changes in U.S. policies more generally.
Results for this USA Today/Gallup poll are based on telephone interviews conducted Oct. 15-16, 2011, on the Gallup Daily tracking survey, with a random sample of 1,026 adults, aged 18 and older, living in all 50 U.S. states and the District of Columbia.
For results based on the total sample of national adults, one can say with 95% confidence that the maximum margin of sampling error is ±4 percentage points.
Interviews are conducted with respondents on landline telephones and cellular phones, with interviews conducted in Spanish for respondents who are primarily Spanish-speaking. Each sample includes a minimum quota of 400 cell phone respondents and 600 landline respondents per 1,000 national adults, with additional minimum quotas among landline respondents by region. Landline telephone numbers are chosen at random among listed telephone numbers. Cell phone numbers are selected using random-digit-dial methods. Landline respondents are chosen at random within each household on the basis of which member had the most recent birthday.
Samples are weighted by gender, age, race, Hispanic ethnicity, education, region, adults in the household, and phone status (cell phone only/landline only/both, cell phone mostly, and having an unlisted landline number). Demographic weighting targets are based on the March 2010 Current Population Survey figures for the aged 18 and older non-institutionalized population living in U.S. telephone households. All reported margins of sampling error include the computed design effects for weighting and sample design.
In addition to sampling error, question wording and practical difficulties in conducting surveys can introduce error or bias into the findings of public opinion polls.

Dynamic Three-Dimensional CFD Simulation of Closed Circuit Torque Converter Systems
ISSN: 1946-3995, e-ISSN: 1946-4002
Published April 05, 2016 by SAE International in United States
Citation: Srinivasan, C., Joshi, D., Dhar, S., and Wang, D., "Dynamic Three-Dimensional CFD Simulation of Closed Circuit Torque Converter Systems," SAE Int. J. Passeng. Cars - Mech. Syst. 9(1):289-300, 2016, https://doi.org/10.4271/2016-01-1345.
This paper details the capability of PumpLinx® and Simerics® in simulating both Steady-State (Multiple Reference Frame) and transient, three dimensional torque converter performance and predicting the coupling point in a closed torque converter system in automatic transmission. The focuses of the simulation are in predicting the performance characteristics of the torque converters at different turbine to impeller rotating speeds (speed ratios) for 7 different torque converter designs and determine the coupling point at 70°C temperature. The computational domain includes the complex 3D design of all the impeller, turbine and reactor blades, the path ways that the oil travels between the above three components and the leakage gaps between these components. The physics captured in the simulation include the turbulence in the flow field and the rigorous treatment of the Fluid Structure Interaction (FSI) for the one-way free wheel reactor in predicting coupling point. The one-dimensional rotating dynamic modeling of the reactor enables the simulation of the whole range of speed ratios starting from 0 to 0.99. The integrated values of the transient torque on all the rotating components are found out to determine the torque ratio, K-Factor and efficiency. The comparisons with the hardware measurements show less than 5% differences between the test and simulation results. The consistency of the numeric schemes used for the simulation combined with the extremely fast run times and close comparisons with the test measurements adds value to the use of PumpLinx as a tool for simulating full torque converter systems.

Editor’s Note: The following is an excerpt from the collection of short stories What She Was Saying by Marjorie Maddox (Fomite, 2017).
Before Pennsylvania, the world was flat, the distance between two horizons a straight view. In those other states, I walked a state-of-mind, linear but un-livable. Map coordinates located something less than inhale/exhale. Now place has something to do with oxygen horded in the limbs of hemlock and elm, with the way these mountains bulge with breath. Air blooms among such unbashful blues and greens, darts with the dragonfly, and drinks with the white-tailed deer. Always, it winds with the creeks, then glides over Allegheny curves to rise up with the hawks. When the firefly blinks, it is not an SOS but a refrain from a mountain song so old you can hear the hills humming.
The only light in the shotgun house is the steady blink of the TV. I’ve swept her job at the mill beneath the corners of a 40-year-old carpet, crammed his factory work in the closet they no longer open. But for years, I couldn’t ignore the hum of what they didn’t have, the absence they gave my husband in abundance. I can almost touch each wall with its peeling paper of orange watering cans as I hike between sheet-covered furniture lined up for the one clear view of a sitcom. Though I try to get comfortable, I can’t. Even the air bunches up against itself between straight planes of plaster.
Outside the narrow windows, bricks block the coal-tinged breeze. Rusting lawn chairs clutter the neighbors’ crumbling porches from which out-of-work, middle-aged men stare at each other and do nothing. Teens compete at squealing their makeshift hot rods down the thin strip of asphalt left over between tightly parked pick-ups and hand-me-down four-doors. From the cracked sidewalk, barefoot girls in bare midriffs pause their hopscotch and wave.
I head instead to their backyard, where blooms border a six-by-four yard and spill over as geraniums and pansies, roses and black-eyed Susans, tulips, and marigolds. Hummingbirds nip nectar. Tomatoes bob from stalks tied-up with old panty hose. Lettuce proclaims victory over rabbits, and strawberries congratulate themselves for against-the-odds growth. My brown thumb, envious to the end, fingers joy.
The doe and its fawn enter our backyard on the slant, kitty-corner themselves from rhododendron bush to magnolia. Theirs is a quiet joy, stepping just so from their hills into suburbia, the distance six hops of a skipped stone. They’ve forgotten to worry and remember this grass and the long limbs of our maple. They step easily between swing set and tool shed, detour around a half-finished game of croquet. Nurtured on grace, they politely turn their sleek necks to avoid our gaze. From behind glass, my children stare. They compare the soft sheen of the deer’s fur to sketched likenesses in store-bought books. My husband warns them not to open the door, not to let the conditioned air out.
Beneath the tent flaps, my children and I breathe in the wild Pennsylvania air. The mountains, we say, are hugging the wind, the laurel so thick we could pick a thousand blooms. All evening we count the blinks of fireflies. We sense hawks circling the night clouds above our camp and bears obediently pausing between the zigzags of evergreens. We listen long into the dark until the drone of crickets leads us into dreams full of deer and ruffed grouse. Then we doze without worry, the curve of the world huddled about us as we breathe its crispness in.
In the chilled morning air, when we emerge from sleep and the tent door, it is—almost-surprisingly—just our backyard on the outside, our hammock waiting in the half-light of dawn. We think we hear the doe and her fawn, but it is my husband up on the patio, already flipping blueberry pancakes on the griddle. The country-style bacon sizzles with joy when we join him, humming our campfire rounds.

Dental work can be expensive, especially if you don’t have a discount dental plan. And if you need a lot of work done, you could end up paying thousands of dollars. If your wallet is feeling the heat, try some of these tips to cut dental costs.
If you have insurance or a dental plan, you will probably not be able to negotiate the treatment price with your dentist. If not, however, your dentist may be willing to give you a discount, especially if you pay cash up front. Some practices may also give out discounts in exchange for monthly premiums. Talk to your dentist to find out if you qualify for any kind of discount.
If you don’t qualify for a discount, it may help to split your bill into different payments. Many dentists have this as an option. If you’re interested in making payments on your bill, ask your dentist about options for payment plans.
One way to save money on your dental bill is to visit a dental school instead of a general dentist. Because dental students are performing the work instead of a licensed professional, the procedures are very discounted, sometimes even up to 50% cheaper than the typical price. Dental schools typically perform most of the common procedures, including cleanings, fillings, root canals, bridges and dentures. However, though all work is done under the supervision of an instructor, the quality of the work you receive may not be as great as that of a general dentist.
A fourth option for cutting the cost of your dental bill is getting a discount dental plan. Dental plans are available at a low monthly or annual rate, and provide discounts on the work you get done at an in-network dentist. By investing in a dental discount plan, you typically save anywhere from 15-60% off your total dental bill, which often adds up to thousands of dollars saved!
Though dental work can be expensive, there are several ways you can reduce those costs. By using negotiation, payment plans, dental schools and discount dental plans, you can save a lot of money on dental care. Talk to your dentist to see what options you have for receiving discounted dental work.

Young animal lovers with big hearts raise money for RSPCA pt 2
Oscar Payne, a six-year-old from Bungay in Suffolk, wrote a book after he burst into tears one evening while watching TV with his family and saw an advert for the RSPCA which was asking for help to support animals in need.
Oscar was so moved that he decided to pen a book called `The old man and his pets' and raised an amazing £312 by selling copies of it.
Mum Hayley said: 'Oscar was so upset after watching the advert as he didn't realise that people could be so cruel to animals and he immediately wanted to do something to help them. It was then he decided to write the book and give some of his birthday money as well. We are so incredibly proud of him.
After penning the book, Oscar took a tour of the RSPCA Martlesham Animal Centre in Suffolk.

the second heaviest loss of any regiment was by the Eleventh Georgia, 198.
's brigade lost 456; Toombs

's (the Georgians), 155.
To these add the loss of 9 by the Fifty-first Georgia, 133 by the Eighteenth, and 189 by the Twenty-first and Twelfth, and we have a total of about 2,200, nearly a third of the aggregate Confederate loss, 7,244 killed and wounded, as stated by the same authority.
A few more Georgians suffered with their comrades at Chantilly
Conspicuous among those who fell there was Capt. W. F. Brown

The army of McClellan

The movements of the enemy made it necessary for Lee
