NEW DELHI: Rental income from residential property has been exempt from GST but any earning over Rs 20 lakh annually from renting or leasing for commercial purposes would attract the levy.
Revenue Secretary Hasmukh Adhia said that if the house property is rent out for shop or office purpose, no Goods and Service Tax (GST) will be levied up to Rs 20 lakh.
"Rental income received from residential house is exempt. But if you have given your unit to commercial enterprise, then it is taxable if you are getting more than Rs 20 lakh as rent," Adhia said at the GST Master Class.
The taxpayer earning more than the exempted threshold will have to register with the GST Network and pay taxes.
GSTN Chief Executive Prakash Kumar said that as many as 69.32 lakh registered excise, service tax and VAT payers have migrated to the GSTN portal. There are over 80 lakh such assessees in the earlier indirect taxation regime.
Out of the 69.32 lakh, as many as 38.51 lakh have completed the entire registration process and registration certicate is being issued to them.
The remaining 30.8 lakh taxpayers are being sent SMS and emails by GSTN so that they complete the registration process by giving the details of the business like main place of business, additional place of business, promoters details.
Besides, over 4.5 lakh new assessees have registered on the GSTN portal since June 25.
Adhia further said that the facility to amend the details of businesses provided to the GSTN portal at the time of registration will open on July 17. Also, registration for GST practioners will open on the same day.
Besides, cancellation of registration can be done online.
The long-delayed goods and service tax tax structure was finalised by the all-powerful GST Council on Wednesday. GST will replace 17 indirect tax levies and compliance costs will fall.
2 of 10
A 4-tier tax structure of 5%, 12%, 18% and 28% has been finalised
3 of 10
The final four-tier tax structure has slight modification to the 6%, 12%, 18% and 26% slab that were under discussion at the GST Council last month
4 of 10
Essential items including food, which presently constitute roughly half of the consumer inflation basket, will be taxed at zero rate.
5 of 10
What is taxed?
The lowest rate of 5% would be for common use items while there would be two standard rates of 12% and 18% under the Goods and Services Tax (GST) regime targetted to be rolled out from April 1, 2017.
6 of 10
Which is taxed the highest?
The highest tax slab will be applicable to items, which are currently taxed at 30-31% (excise duty plus VAT).
7 of 10
Luxury cars, tobacco and aerated drinks would also be levied with an additional cess on top of the highest tax rate.
8 of 10
The collection from this cess as well as that of the clean energy cess would create a revenue pool which would be used for compensating states for any loss of revenue during the first five years of implementation of GST.
9 of 10
Revenue loss compensation
About Rs 50,000 crore would be needed to compensate states for loss of revenue from rollout of GST, which is to subsume a host of central and state taxes like excise duty, service tax and VAT, in the first year.
10 of 10
The tax rate will now have to get the Parliament's nod, when it meets for the winter session from November 19.
The authority had invited proposals for allotment of industrial land plots of size bigger than 4,000 sq metres for which applications were closed in February this year and results were announced on Wednesday.
Amrit Abhijat, joint secretary and mission director, Housing for All, Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA), says, “The government is most likely to consider the extension of the CLSS benefit further as we have put in a requests based on our assessment from bankers and a large number beneficiaries which get benefit under the scheme.”

Historically, the notion that the Maritimes should consolidate into one province has challenged the status quo of having three separate political regions. The Charlottetown Conference, for example, convened to discuss the potential of a Maritime union, however, as we all know, the Dominion of Canada emerged, instead. This idea of political unity has appeared many times since the 1864 conference, such as when Quebec separatism seemed certain and, more recently, when Senators Stephen Greene, John Wallace, and Mike Duffy floated the idea in 2012.
Whereas the latest conversation about Maritime union appears to have dissipated, likely due to a lack of political support combined with controversy surrounding the Duffy expenses scandal, cooperation between the three provinces is a policy direction that deserves consideration that is more serious.
A politically unified Maritime province, the population of which would be 1.8 million, approximately, would have generated roughly $75 billion in GDP during 2012. It would be Canada’s fifth largest province by population with the sixth largest economy. On the surface, it would appear that a Maritime union would have more stature than any one of its three parts individually. However, the region would suffer in terms of political representation.
There are currently three cabinets and three premiers, for instance, representing the region at first ministers conferences that give the region, as a whole, more attention. Nevertheless, there are weaknesses in this argument, as well, since having three separate premiers requires that they each advocate for their respective provinces, which creates tension.
Another weakness of a politically unified Maritime region is the loss of representation in certain areas within the existing provincial boundaries. In a unified province, for example, rural areas, such as Cape Breton, much of Prince Edward Island, and Northern New Brunswick could face difficulties voicing their demands. Similarly, many other regions would also face difficulties.
Alternatives to the Maritime union could be service integration and economic cooperation. For example, collaboration on energy procurement and delivery or establishing a common service delivery agency could mean lower administrative costs, less interprovincial competition for federal funding, and economies of scale for service delivery. On the contrary, this could also mean a loss in equalization as a unified economy would shift the Maritime’s equalization status. Some common services, such as the Atlantic Lottery Corporation, are in place already but there could be serious benefits in sharing large services such as health care.
There are also weaknesses to both political and economic integration. The most prominent is that each province risks losing sovereign control and questions about accountability arise given the absence of formal interprovincial bodies. (There is an absence of these bodies now, although this would likely change under a political union). Given the fiscal state of the three provinces, however, all opportunities to reduce costs merit further consideration.
Ultimately, there are both benefits and costs to a political unified Maritime region. Whether the benefits outweigh those costs, though, is a topic that government officials in the Maritimes need to take seriously. Initiatives that improve the Maritime’s economic and political environment are particularly important for the involved provinces as the region is facing several challenges.

To compare ex vivo confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM), which offers rapid images without the need for tissue processing, vs 3-dimensional histologic imaging, the criterion standard treatment for basal cell carcinomas in high-risk areas of the face.
Single-center prospective trial.
Dermatosurgical unit of a university hospital.
Seventy-two consecutive surgically removed basal cell carcinomas were examined using CLSM vs standard paraffin-embedded 3-dimensional histologic imaging.
A total of 312 images, including 73 midsections, 196 lateral margins, 23 “muffins,” and 20 “bread loaf sections,” were obtained using CLSM. Immediately after surgery, the CLSM images were evaluated by the surgeon. The following day, the 3-dimensional histologic slides were evaluated and compared with the CLSM images.
Main Outcome Measures
Diagnostic accuracy of ex vivo CLSM to detect tumor strands of basal cell carcinomas and the practicality of using CLSM vs 3-dimensional histologic slides in micrographic surgery.
The sensitivity of CLSM reached 94.0% in midsections, 73.7% in lateral margins, 80.0% in muffins, and 80.0% in bread loaf sections. The CLSM images were evaluated by the surgeon within 7.5 minutes.
Confocal laser scanning microscopy lacks high sensitivity to detect small tumor strands of basal cell carcinomas. In the future, CLSM may represent a time-saving and less expensive alternative to cryostat histopathologic examination.

What concerns mind any time hearing regarding drug battles, rap audio, and Manhattan’s Reduced East Part? Trademark intrusion? Correct! Properly, these factors all characteristic prominently in the June selection by Fresh York’s The southern part of District Court docket, which terminated infringement promises against makers Kanye Gulf and Damon Rush over their usage of the subject “Loisaidas” with an eight portion film collection depicting any turf war inside the iconic area. The lording it over centres on the usage of trademarked phrases whose expressive meanings attain beyond the particular scope with the owner’s right in law.
Plaintiff Erika Medina known as his Latin music duo “Loisaidas, inches trademarking the particular name regarding music video tutorials and track recordings inside 2011. He filed a lawsuit against Gulf and Rush, complaining the defendants infringed Medina’s indicate, violating the particular Lanham Work and connected state legislation, after making use of “Loisaidas” in some “music video tutorials. ” The particular defendants turned down Medina’s promises, arguing the particular project was some films, as opposed to music video tutorials.
The court docket rejected the particular plaintiff’s discussion that Gulf and Rush used “Loisaidas” in mention of Medina’s work as opposed to its colloquial that means, in some other words being a slang word to spell it out Lower Far east Side locals. The selection noted the defendants “obviously” used the definition of to reference a place. It more noted the next Circuit’s selections in Dual Peaks Prods. Inc. /.

Under Dual Peaks and also Rogers, the Routine held which it must initial see perhaps the trademarked subject has virtually any artistic relevance for the work involved. If in which relevance is out there, then the particular court need to judge whether or not a odds of confusion is out there, applying related factors to ascertain whether the particular title will be misleading.
In order to avoid encroaching after First Change values, your choice reinforced any narrow interpretation with the Lanham Work.

For Medina, those defenses are quite few. For Gulf and Rush, that signifies another eight-part “Loisaidas” lawn war could be available.

Burmese authorities have arrested 19 North Korean defectors and plan to charge them with illegally entering the country, a senior police official said Saturday.
The group was trying to make their way to South Korea via China and Southeast Asia, an increasingly popular route for North Koreans trying to escape chronic hunger and repression in their communist homeland.
An official, who did not want to be named, said "As they were arrested in our territory, we are taking action against them under the immigration act," he said.
The Burmese police official said he was not sure if the 19 people would be returned and said the North Korean embassy in Rangoon had not yet intervened.
Military-ruled Burma and hardline communist North Korea, which are both severely criticized internationally for human rights abuses, restored diplomatic relations in April 2007.
Burma severed ties with Pyongyang in 1983 following a failed assassination attempt by North Korean agents on then-South Korean president Chun Doo-Hwan during his visit to Rangoon. The bombing killed 17 of Chun's entourage including cabinet ministers while four Burmese officials also died.
Burma, which has been ruled by generals since 1962, and North Korea have been branded "outposts of tyranny" by the United States, which imposes sanctions on both.

Food Truck: The Bun Truck
The pristine sunshine makes today’s 74° feel even warmer. Light rain earlier in the week washed the air, but now the dry Southern California breeze whispers of Santa Anas. I have all of the windows open in the house to let in the staccato conversations of birds (and the pained wheeze of my neighbor warming up his hoopdie 1970’s limousine). It is too beautiful to stay indoors, so I suggested a lunch date with the husband at the food trucks on Wilshire Blvd: three whole blocks of everything you never knew you wanted to eat for lunch.
We found rock star parking at a meter with an hour left on the timer. The Bun Truck was the first we came to and we traveled no farther. I would have been happy with anything on the menu. We decided on a combo of kalbi buns (filled with marinated sirloin), duck fat and rosemary fries, and spicy pork buns, which were our favorite. I enjoyed the sliver of tempura battered onion in the kalbi bun. I am not an avid eater of steamed buns, but these were good enough to entice me into a second visit. I am intrigued by the tempura vegetable sandwich with avocado.
We carried our food trays across the street to a low wall in the park at LACMA where children were laughing and running through the sprinklers. The food was tasty, the view was lovely, the weather was idyllic and the company was my favorite. I love living in this city, birthplace of food truck culture.

No fooling, come April 1st another invasion will take place, only this time in Salt Lake City. And there's no general leading the attack by the name of Schwarzkopf.
True, America's most loyal ally, Great Britain, is once again sending her sons into the fray, although this invasion has nothing to do with guns or butter, for that matter. At least not the kind of butter you spread on toast.But it has everything to do with music, the electronic disco, synthesized sound of the British group the Pet Shop Boys, who are hoping their 14-city tour of the U.S. and Canada might just usher in another big wave of British pop music, similar to that which first hit America's shores in the early '60s when the Beatles and Rolling Stones established a secure beachhead.
Reluctant to tour in the past because they didn't want to put on a standard rock concert, lead singer and lyricist Neil Tennant, 36, and composer-keyboardist Chris Lowe, 31, will find themselves in Salt Lake City as the sixth venue in their tour. After a chance meeting in 1981 in a music store on London's Kings Road, Tennant and Lowe decided they had something in common, a shared ambivalence toward all things rock 'n' roll.
After haunting demo studios until 1983, the duo, whose name comes from some of Lowe's friends who worked in a London pet store, a breakthrough occurred when Tennant, then a writer and editor for Smash Hits, Britain's best-selling music magazine, was in New York City to interview the group the Police. While there, Tennant met producer Bobby "O" Orlando, who cut the group's first version of "West End Girls" in 1984.
"West End Girls" remained a London club hit until 1985, when the group recut the track and the new mix vaulted it to Britain's first No. 1 hit of 1986, eventually making the top of the charts in the United States and six other countries later that year.
Their first album, "Please," went platinum in America and Great Britain, spawning a series of hit singles - "Opportunities (Let's Make Lots of Money)," "Suburbia" and "Love Comes Quickly."
"Disco" was their second album of 1986, a combination of 12 remixed singles and two new songs.
Their next album, "Actually," the best selling to date, produced four more hit singles including "It's A Sin" and "What Have I Done To Deserve This?" which includes a duet between Tennant and Dusty Springfield, her biggest hit since 1969.
In 1988 the group's version of "Always On My Mind" hit the airwaves. Originally part of a television tribute to Elvis, the song was included on their 1988 six-track dance album, "Introspective."
"Behavior," the Pet Shop Boys' fifth and latest album, expresses a new maturity for the group combining their wizardry and wit with a softer edge. Ever the disco music dance fan, Chris Lowe says "Behavior" is still music you can dance to.
Tennant and Lowe's talents and interests are obviously multifaceted. They released a feature film, "It Couldn't Happen Here," in 1987 and produced the album "Results" for Liza Minnelli, which gave her a first-ever hit with "Losing My Mind."
Direct from two performances at L.A.'s Universal Amphitheater, the Pet Shop Boys will perform at the University of Utah's Kingsbury Hall at 7:30 p.m. on Monday, April 1.
Billed as "An Evening With the Pet Shop Boys," the concert will not include a warm-up act. Expect more than your average run-of-the-mill concert, however, as Tennant and Lowe promise a lavish, multimedia extravaganza complete with up to 12 costume changes.
Tickets are priced at $17.50 in advance and $18.50 the day of the show, available at all Smith's-Tix locations.
Whether it turns out to be a real invasion or not, after their final appearance in Montreal on April 15, the Pet Shop Boys at least hope they will have gained a little more R-E-S-P-E-C-T.

The replacement for Maclin and Jackson as the number one receiver in Philadelphia is assumably second year receiver Jordan Matthews. Matthews was second on the team in receiving yards last season as he had 67 catches for 872 yards and eight touchdowns.
However, Matthews told the The Philadelphia Inquirer, “People ask me about being the No. 1 wide receiver; forget it. I want us to be a receiving corps. That’s what I want it to be.”
This just goes to show how unselfish and modest Matthews is, but it does beg the question how Kelly is going to replace 1,300 yards of production. The Eagles coach arguably got lucky when Jackson left as he had Maclin to replace him, that isn’t the case this time around.
As it stands right now, the Eagles have addressed the receiving corps by signing an oft-injured Miles Austin. While Austin had his good moments in Dallas, he certainly isn’t anywhere close to the player that he once was. Even in his prime he only had two 1,000 yard seasons, one exceeding 1,300 yards.
It all comes back to Kelly having confidence in his scheme and believing that it trumps talent. The Eagles head coach will draft and sign players to fit his system rather than draft or sign based solely on need.
This isn’t necessarily a bad thing, but Kelly believes his system can work with the players he has and that it will work even better once he gets the pieces in place that are more suited to his scheme no matter what.
This sort of system can only work for so long as it has been proven time and time again that NFL defenses will eventually catch on. Eventually you are going to need talent at the offensive skill positions and right now, Kelly is putting a lot of trust in an unproven Josh Huff and as mentioned earlier, oft-injured Austin.
Kelly has the “money-ball” mentality in which he would like to get production from young or cheap veteran players rather than pay his stars. He will pay the stars, see Byron Maxwell and DeMarco Murray, but he would still much rather it the other way around.
Matthews’ comments directly reflect what Chip Kelly believes. Kelly doesn’t want one receiver going for 1,500 yards and three receivers having 500 yards. He would much rather four receivers splitting that more evenly. This is exactly why they replaced one player, LeSean McCoy, with now three players, Darren Sproles, Ryan Mathews, and Murray.
Chip Kelly has been called a genius in some parts of Philadelphia and around the nation for his so-called brilliant offensive mind. However, that doesn’t stop us from asking the question, what is he doing?
It is admirable how Chip Kelly has so much trust in his system and how he gets HIS players to buy into it. We can only hope that his way of thinking continues to work.

PITTSBURGH — As far as goaltending goes, this is being called the ``B movie`` Stanley Cup final.
Pittsburgh`s Tom Barrasso and the Blackhawks` Ed Belfour can stop as many pucks as they like. The criticism still is likely to keep coming at the B-boys, even the one who eventually wins the series, which opens Tuesday night.
They continually hear that their teams have to overcome their sometimes erratic play to win.
Belfour shrugs pleasantly at the swipes. Barrasso barks viciously.
``I`ll leave all the slandering and slurring to (the media),`` Barrasso said Monday. ``I don`t know why people say what they do about me, and I stopped caring a long time ago.
``When I was younger, sure, it bothered me. But now I have no real use for the media. It`s not a dislike, it`s just that you guys can`t do anything for me. What does it matter to me what you say?
``Obviously, it`s not high on my priority list to stand around for 45 minutes after practices and games and be interviewed. I`ve established what is important to me.
``I`ve played nine years and I don`t have a long time left. My wife and children are my priorities. When hockey is over when I`m 35 or so, I`ll have plenty to contribute to the rest of my life. Hockey isn`t everything there is. ``I didn`t look at winning a Cup last year as vindication for myself. We have a good club. Sometimes you lose your focus in eight months of playing. The regular season is highly overrated. But winning a Cup is what we play for, and there is not a player sitting at home now who wouldn`t want to trade places with us.``
Belfour isn`t as jaded as Barrasso. Both are 27, but Barrasso has been in the NHL longer, since Buffalo took him in the first round in 1983. Belfour went undrafted and rose to prominence last year when he won the Vezina and Calder trophies as the best goalie and rookie.
He laughed when asked if he thought he could someday be as bitter as Barrasso, whether years of abuse could break down his protective shell.
``You`ve got to earn your respect,`` he said. ``It doesn`t come like that. You`ve got to prove it over and over until people realize that you`re good.
``I`ve heard this all my life, so it doesn`t bother me. I`ve won pretty much everywhere I`ve been. Maybe that`s why, because of what others have said about me. I suppose being the underdog, having people tell you you can`t do something, does motivate me.``

Lawrence Hong, 27, was one of five young people fatally stabbed at an end-of-term party in April 2014. He was awarded the Canadian Urban Transit Association's Excellence Award, which recognizes a single major contribution that bettered a public transit initiative.
According to a press release from the University of Calgary, where Hong was a student, the young man would have become an award-winning transit planner had he lived and so it was important to his former instructor to nominate him for this award.
"I have no doubt that Lawrence was going to be a gift to the urban planning profession," said David Cooper, a senior transportation planner with the City of Toronto and a former urban studies instructor at the university. "He had such a passion and talent. I always felt he was going to be an award-winning planner and it's comforting to know that he's now being recognized as such."
Cooper says the Excellence Award Hong received is the biggest honour in the Canadian public transit industry, next to the Lifetime Achievement Award.
Cooper said in the press release that he first met Hong while teaching an urban studies course in transit planning at the University of Calgary — a course in which Hong quickly excelled.
"He had big aspirations to become a transportation planner and he was focused on issues surrounding cycling, public transit and walkability," Cooper said, adding that Hong had also helped form a group called the Calgary Creative City Collaboration, which sought to bring public art into the city's LRT stations.
Hong sat on a steering committee of the Canadian Urban Transit Association's biannual youth conference in 2013 as a volunteer and also served as vice-president of finance for the university's Urban Studies Club.
His parents, Marlene and Lorencio Hong, received the award on his behalf in a ceremony on Nov. 19 in Niagara Falls, Ont.
Among the others honoured at the ceremony were Michael Cook of Timmins Transit, who received the Heroism Award for saving a woman from a burning house while driving along his bus route in 2013, and Mississauga Mayor Hazel McCallion who, like Hong, received the Excellence Award for her role in improving transit in her community.


RAYYA & ELIZABETH – New York, NY
Rayya Elias, Writer, filmmaker, musician and hairdresser
Elizabeth Gilbert, Writer
Seventeen years ago, Elizabeth went to Rayya for a haircut.
“From there, it was a slow ascent into friendship, and then best friendship, and then—finally, just last year—we became dearly beloveds,” the “very happily not married” couple said of their courtship.
Best known for her work as a writer, Elizabeth (or “Liz,” as Rayya affectionately refers to her) is a household name after her memoir “Eat Pray Love” became a massive success and subsequent film. Rayya is also an accomplished writer, and the commonalities the two shared were helpful in their move from “almost two decades of the deepest foundational friendship you could ever imagine” to a romantic partnership.
“Our biggest challenge was finally finding our way to each other as lovers,” Elizabeth said. “[It] took a long a time. Then Rayya was diagnosed with cancer, and that did it. There was no more time to waste. The truth had to be spoken at last.”
Rayya’s diagnosis spawned Elizabeth’s public coming out on her Facebook, sharing with more than 1.6 million fans that the love of her life was going through something excruciating, and keeping it a secret was going to not only be difficult, but unimaginable for the forthcoming and prolific confessional writer.
“I love and revere the way Rayya always manages to tell the truth to people, without hurting them in the process,” Elizabeth said. “It’s an astonishing talent of the heart.”
“I love Liz’s light and her sensitivity,” Rayya said of her partner, “and her passion for magic.”
As for future plans, Elizabeth and Rayya are enjoying every moment they have, hoping that their days won’t be cut short.
“Just please give us more time together,” the couple said. “We’ll do the rest.”

Read a Description of Street Judge
Book Reviewed by Thumper
In his fiction debut Judge Greg Mathis, star of the
syndicated Judge Mathis TV show, releases Street Judge, a
mystery/thriller with a message. Although I have never thought
of the judge writing gritty murder mysteries, after reading
Street Judge; I would not mind if he wrote more of them. Before
I get too deep into this review it is only fair to state that I
am biased. I have watched the Judge Greg Mathis TV show since it
has been on the air in Indianapolis. I read and loved his
Inner City Miracle. I am a fan. But, when I read that Street
Judge was a murder mystery, my eyebrow went up and stayed there.
Since I watch The Judge Mathis Show 5 days a week-even the
repeats-and murder mysteries are my first literary love; I had
to pick this novel up and give it a glance. Man, am I glad I
did. Street Judge is actually quite good. There were a couple of
spots in the book I did not care for, but overall, the novel is
a compelling, fast paced read.
Judge Greg Mathis, the main character, has won his judge seat and is facing his first week on the bench. On the first day of his term, a woman’s decapitated head is found in an alley by two teenage boys. A drug dealer tells the police that he has information on the grisly murder but he will only talk to one person about it-Judge Greg Mathis. Judge Mathis soon finds himself in a few tangled webs: his supervisor is out to unseat him; the district attorney’s office will not corporate in seeking justice for the murdered victim; and someone is trying to blackmail him. Now the judge has to hit the streets to find out who killed the single mother and the source of the extortion. It won’t be easy, but can the judge get the job done without getting taken down?
I loved the book. Street Judge is an enthralling, graphic, well constructed, quick moving mystery with a message. I was not too sure that I would appreciate the message portion of the book. I knew that I was in for some preaching. I suspected that part of the motivation for Mathis to write the book was to reach out and inspire an audience he would not have ordinarily captured. Like I said, I watch Mathis’s show everyday. On his show, or in his first book, Inner City Miracle, I was expecting to hear a message and I did. But, a message coupled with a murder mystery? *eyebrow raised* Now Mathis got me messed up. I Ain't trying to get preached to, bring on the murder and let’s get busy solving it. Rarely has an author been able to write a message and tell a story without screwing up one or the other or both. The story/message, one will get more attention than the other; thus, creating an imbalance. Mathis comes close to balancing the two, certainly not an easy feat to accomplish.
I was somewhat thrown when I read the book summary and saw that Mathis made himself the main character. I have heard and read biographies thinly disguised as fiction. I have read and enjoyed mysteries where the main character/detective was a historical figure. Street Judge is the first book that I have read where the author put himself in the story as the main character. Mathis makes it work. I have no problem seeing or believing the character Judge Mathis. Mathis, the author, does not make Mathis, the character, a super hero, or give him any special super human abilities. The character Mathis is a real man, no pun intended, with flaws; making the character Mathis fascinating and genuine.
I have only one complaint about the novel: a portion of the narrative is written in that ’business’ voice, which on paper comes off hollow, fake and boring. The ’business’ voice is that voice where the enunciation is crisp, the grammar is correct, and the tone is slightly nasal. It’s the voice that black folks use when talking to white folks (especially when the subject is money-trying to get it or putting off paying it) to let the white folks know that I am intelligent, I have an education, so don't get ’high hat’ with me. Do not misunderstand me, there’s nothing wrong with using the ’business’ voice. I’ve heard my parents do it; my friends’ parents do it; my friends do it. Hell, I do it! There are times when I have to let folks know that Purdue University does not hand out engineering degrees to anybody and you can't get them mail to you from the Philippines either! But, I don't want to read a book with a narrative in the ’business’ voice!
At the beginning of the novel, the first 50 or so pages, Mathis uses the ’business’ voice. He was putting me to sleep. I was beginning to get a little ticked off and had started formulating insults to hurl at him in my review. Fortunately, Mathis dropped the ’business’ voice and began using his naturally captivating storytelling voice. He is a natural story teller. Once the ’business’ voice hit the skids, the story really started to move’fast. I loved it.
Street Judge is a wonderful debut. Mathis kept it real throughout the novel. He does not shy away from the violence or the gruesome details. After the slow start, I was easily hooked by the mystery and the suspense level of the story rose and remained high. I read the novel in a day. I hope that Street Judge will be the first of many more novels to come.
Inner City Miracle: A Memoir - Book Review


Well,if they can get them fast enough, it has definitely a go on from me.
Still I will vouch for a full 5gen engine like Al-51 over any increased thrust derivative of an already existing engine.
Well that is the rub... they have been working on these engines for quite some time, so the 11 ton engine has been mentioned recently as being available soon, but that might mean testing in 2-3 years time and perhaps getting on to a service aircraft in 5-6 years time... but building a brand new engine from scratch will take 10 years minimum and that assumes proper regular reliable funding... you can bet your ass half way through some pencil pusher will say... do we need another new engine... if there is no one sensible like you or I nearby to say yes there might be problems...
Mind to enlighten us more about such an evaluation?
The Soviets had plenty of experience with deltas and canards... their first canard aircraft was the MiG-8 built and tested during WWII as a stall proof design for training... the idea being the first surface to stall was the nose mounted canards which made the nose drop down which is the standard recovery manouver for a stall... they also built and tested lots of deltas... including the Analog... a modified MiG-21 used for testing the wing shape of the Tu-144.
Decades ago, even in W. Europe itself, they were considered a sort of extreme configuration, good for certain roles but in overall quite risky but now all the fighters produced here are canard deltas because in the meantime solutions were found to overcome the initial design limitations.
Aircraft design includes a component of fashion... after the Americans saw the MiG-25 they copied it with their F-15 too... the design requirements seemed to dictate that layout and form. In the case of the Space Shuttle the Americans spent 2 billion dollars in the 1970s (15 thousand dollars at that time would buy you a nice house)... The Soviets wanted something to do pretty much the same thing so they adopted the shape though the actual design was fundamentally different.
There were lots of canard designs through the 1980s and 1990s, but the Soviet/Russian ones never made it...
[qutoe]Certainly if they are for detection of stealth targets they are a must have for any future fighter plane.
What I meant is that even a small plane can carry them without experimenting the same loss of performance it would happen in case of a conventional nose mounted one (compared to the ones mounted on larger models, obviously.
Surely I never though of not putting a conventionally fitted radar also. [/quote]
Well I have been thinking about this too... with a flying wing design there might not be much in the way of a nose or fuselage for a large radar, yet most strategic bombers have decent nose mounted radars to find ground targets and watch out for aerial threats...
I was thinking for a large strategic bomber the wing profile is going to get really thick really quick because it will be subsonic so the issue of setting back from the leading edge should mean plenty of space for vertical and horizontal elements for an AESA array, but something smaller like the S-70 that is supersonic might struggle.
They have mentioned surface mounted antenna... so think of the wing made of lego blocks with the front line of blocks then the blocks above and below one notch back etc etc... so from front on you have a normal looking flat array but from side on you have a wedge.
You could go a step further by mounting the antenna deeper inside the wing so you might have the centre of the array 10 rows flat and level and then start dropping them back to the shape of the wing and have the wing stick out in front of the antenna array like the radome on a normal radar provides an aerodynamic shape for what is essentially a flat nosed radar antenna.
They might have fold down or retractable mounts or indeed side looking arrays... they might have arrays looking in every direction including up and down so it could enter a steep climb to scan the area ahead and then level off and be stealthy again... there are lots of solutions or ideas they could use...
Also there, it certainly would but a smaller yet faster UCAV i.e. a pilotless version of what i was talking above would be even better for the role.
S-70s are pilotless... and smaller would not be able to carry R-37M missiles to take out the AWACS and JSTARS aircraft from 300km... is the smaller UCAV faster than mach 6?
With USAF bound to buy a score of F-35 flying bricks in the next 15-20 years they have a great window of opportunity for a light A2A UCAV in my humble opinion.
Yeah, but if Russia invests in lots of A2A UCAVs then so will the Americans and that might cure their problems with the F-35... they might just buy 800 of them and use them to manage flights of 20 or more drones of different types each.
Better to let them buy 3,500 F-35s... even without drones it is a good move for Russia economically... and the drones they do make can be exported to countries like Cuba and Venezuela and Iran if they want them.
In a certain sense the original F-15 was even more extreme of the same F-16 as it sported very powerful engines but a light frame.
That was a very specific and conscious choice because when they were designing the F-15 they thought the MiG-25 was what the F-15 was... a super fighter...
Obviously we know now it was a super interceptor and was rather good for recon as well, but the Americans didn't know that so they took the MiG-25s shape... because that is what they assumed would be the best shape for the job, and then they made the most powerful engines they could make and used them and the most expensive avionics and gave it every capability they could think of to make it the best...

Trott stars with ball for Bay
Bailey’s Bay comfortably defended their modest total of 157 against Western Stars as Keiron Trott was outstanding with the ball, taking seven wickets for just nine runs at Sea Breeze Oval yesterday.
Stars, who were dethroned as champions in the Central Counties the day before by Tuff Dogs of the Evening League, did well to restrict Bailey’s Bay to 157 in 48.4 overs.
However, their batsmen had no answer to Trott who was outstanding in his eighth over spell as Stars were dismissed in just 22 overs.
Trott, who claimed five for 12 in a win over Southampton Rangers in the Open League two weeks ago, was again outstanding with his seam bowling after coming on as first change.
In the end Bay hardly missed seam pair Kyle Hodsoll and Zeko Burgess while captain Rodney Trott wasn’t required to provide his spin as Bay used only four bowlers.
College student Zenawi Bowen chipped in with three for 31 off six overs as only three Stars batsmen reached double figures. Rohan Davis and captain Seth Campbell were joint high scorers with 12 apiece while Dante Wellman scored 11.
Only three Bay batsmen reached double figures, with captain Trott’s knock of 63 as opener helping them to reach their total after being comfortably placed at 130 for five.
PJ Thomas halted Bay’s push for a big total with his four for 24 in seven overs after being the sixth bowler used by Stars.
Seth Campbell and Wellman both claimed two for 26 after Stars won the toss and sent Bay in. Bay were in early trouble at 52 for two before a stand of 78 for the fifth wicket between Trott and Coleridge Durham (21) put 130 on the board before Trott departed.

TechSpot means tech analysis and advice you can trust. Read our ethics statement.
If you've been eyeballing an Xbox 360 for yourself or a loved one this holiday season, you might want to think twice about making a purchase this year. People familiar with the company's plans have revealed that Microsoft is preparing to release the next generation Xbox, often called the Xbox 720, in time for the 2013 holiday buying season.
If Bloomberg's sources are correct, we should expect to see the new console launch right around Thanksgiving 2013 stateside. Not at all surprising, Microsoft is remaining tight-lipped about the subject as of writing.
Project Durango (the codename for the new system) is expected to contain four processing cores, each with four logical cores. The final issue of Xbox World also believes we could see up to 8GB of RAM, directional audio, Kinect 2.0 support as well as Blu-ray capabilities. A new gamepad and augmented reality glasses are also expected at some point as well.
It remains unclear at this hour exactly what Microsoft will call the new console or how much it will be priced at. Xbox World doesn't suspect Microsoft will stick with the 720 moniker. They think the console will take on a simpler name like "Xbox."
These are all details that we likely won't know the answers to until next year's E3 conference or as the sources suggest, perhaps at a separate event dedicated sole to the console. That decision has reportedly not been made yet.
Do you already own a 360, are you planning to pick up one this year or are you going to hold off on investing in a Microsoft console until the next generation unit arrives?

The Tastiest Form of Meditation
Food gives us energy, but depletes it as well.
There is no doubt that our minds are addicted to food. We are addicted to the delicious tastes and sensations. We drool over photos of food. We form positive and/or negative associations with food, the places we eat it, and the people we eat it with, and we spend energy thinking about our next meal, what to eat, where and who with.
Once we begin chowing down on our meal, our bodies spend quite a lot of energy digesting. So much energy that we generally tend to feel tired after we’ve finished our meal and our bodies work hard to process our stomachs full of food.
What if we could practice mindfulness to have a better experience with our food? What if being more aware when eating could help us live life with greater ease? Fewer worries. Fewer stresses. Less guilt. Less anger. Ultimately, mindful eating can help us conserve our energy for thinking sharp and making better decisions. I hope that these tips help bring even more radiance into your life.
- Say grace. Whether it’s “Rub a dub dub, thanks for the grub,” a religious prayer, or moment of silence before digging in, the practice of showing gratitude for the meal we are about to eat has been practiced for ages. Finding gratitude and appreciation for our food opens the heart. When our heart is open, we feel good, and we are able to carry ourselves with more dignity and grace.
- Slow eating. Consider chewing your food 30 times per bite or until the food becomes mush in your mouth. Why? Because slow eating can be one of the most easily accessible meditations. Slow yourself down and really enjoy the meal by engaging all five senses. Smell aromas. Feel the texture. Appreciate the colours. Taste every bite. Listen to the belly. You are retraining and rewiring yourself to be more conscious. Believe that this embodiment of self-control has the ability multiply to other facets in your life. It is a practice.
- Stop when you are 3/4 full. Eating takes so much energy that signals to the brain are generally delayed. Think of how gross you feel after overeating. The act of stopping and checking in with yourself gives your mind and body a moment to connect. Being mindful in this way is great for the mind and spirit, and is sure to leave your body thanking you.
I’m stopping myself at three tips today because if you could focus on even just one, you are helping bring more mindfulness into your life. You have the ability to practice multiple times a day with every meal. Isn’t it worth it to give it a chance?

The trees are leaning, leaning … and then they’re gone.
A Louisiana sinkhole swallowed a group of trees in a matter of seconds Wednesday, pulling down the trees as water swirled.
An official in Assumption Parish, a town in the southern part of the state, captured video of the incident. According to the Advocate, the sinkhole has been growing for a year now – and is about 25 acres in size.
The sinkhole, caused by a collapsed underground salt dome, had previously claimed nearby trees and property. But this sort of sinkhole activity isn’t normally caught on video.

A MAN CALLED OVE
In A Man Called Ove, by Swedish author Fredrik Backman, there is this man, and he is called Ove.
When we first meet Ove, we see a grouchy old geezer. But at 59, Ove is not really old – perhaps he is old in spirit, rather than old in age. Nonetheless, he is a fixture of sorts in his neighborhood. We see that Ove is rather rigid. There is a way things should be – a way things should be done – and, according to Ove, young ‘uns these days aren’t taught this. Ove cannot understand this generation that has not been taught these basics in self-sufficiency – but does that really make Ove rigid? Ove’s neighbors push themselves into his world – a cat insinuates himself into Ove’s life– and then Ove’s orderly world seems shot to hell.
Backman has created a thoughtful examination of stereotype versus reality. As we learn more about Ove, peel away layers, so to speak, we learn that people are not always what they appear to be. There are underlying complexities which, once understood, demonstrate how misleading stereotypes and first impressions can be. We have all known an Ove – but how many of us have ever gotten to know our Ove?
A Man Called Ove is well written, engaging, entertaining, sad, yet a poignant study about our contemporary world. The book has been made into an Oscar nominated movie – I recommend that you read the book before seeing the movie.

WHEN BREATH BECOMES AIR
Paul Kalanithi was a bright young doctor with a promising future. He had completed graduate work in English and in the History and Philosophy of Science. He was just finishing his residency in Neurosurgery when he was dealt a serious blow – Kalanithi was diagnosed was cancer.
The gifted young Neurosurgeon who had helped so many people in his role as their doctor now became a patient. The scholar who was concerned with questions about death now faced death. To say that receiving such a diagnosis is life altering is an understatement.
To deal with the situation, Kalanithi wrote When Breath Becomes Air. The book gives us insight into the life of a doctor. We get a glimpse of life as a medical student, as a resident, and some of the difficulties and decisions young doctors face. Kalanithi takes us through his learning of his diagnosis, which is staggering to one who understands precisely what is being said – and not said – by that diagnosis. We see how Kalanithi applies his years of practical and theoretical learning. We are privy to the decisions that he and his wife make, such as having a child at such a difficult time.
When Breath Becomes Air was published posthumously. The book is well written, its author was very brave, and the overall reading experience was very, very sad.

CAREER OF EVIL
Cormoran Strike and Robin Ellacott are back in Robert Galbraith’s third Cormoran Strike mystery, Career of Evil. As I thoroughly enjoyed Galbraith’s first two classic who-done-its, The Cuckoo’s Calling (see review, January 27, 2017) and The Silkworm (see review, February 12, 2017), I was very excited to reunite with Cormoran and Robin in Career of Evil.
I think of Career of Evil as the “Blue Oyster Cult” mystery, as the chapter epigraphs are drawn from the rock group. The book, like the group, runs to the dark. And, I think that Career of Evil is the darkest Galbraith novel yet.
In Career of Evil, there is a serial killer and severed body parts. After Robin receives a severed leg, it becomes clear that she is in the killer’s crosshairs. Can Cormoran find the killer before the killer can reach Robin?
The plot is engaging, convoluted, and very scary. As I have stated before, however, it is Galbraith’s masterful character development that wows me every time, and Career of Evil does not disappoint. In addition to further fleshing out the main characters, Cormoran and Robin, Galbraith shows us more of their backstories. In addition, Career of Evil shows the development in Cormoran’s and Robin’s relationship, both professionally and personally.
At the end of the book, J.K. Rowling included a note along the lines that this was the book she enjoyed writing the most and that Robert Galbraith is her “private playground”. This feeling comes through in Career of Evil. Although the Cormoran Strike series is a high quality classic who-done-it in and of itself, there is a sense in Career of Evil of the fun and freedom that I envision Rowling experiencing.
Cormoran Strike is growing and developing at an incredible pace – and so is my love of Galbraith’s series. I cannot wait for the next installment!

Karen Marie Moning
Feversong, the long awaited Fever finale, is here!
At then end of Feverborn (see review February 1, 2017), all seems lost. Mac and the Sinsar Dubh and the black holes – the end is nigh. But then….
Feversong, the final installment in the series, is a fitting end to a complicated and convoluted plot. I was surprised to find how many loose ends remained to be tied up; and, most of these are resolved in this finale. There are parts of the Fever world about which I would like to have learned more – for example, the origin of the Nine – but while reading Feversong, I came to appreciate the enormity of the job Moning had in finalizing plot lines. In the end, she achieved an adequate balance between resolving the unresolved and leaving open the possibilities. The writing and twists and turns of the plot are reminiscent of the earlier books in the Fever series, the first five that hooked me into this world. Feversong is complex and moves at a very fast pace. I often felt confused, as if I have missed something (at least one “something”). But, I have been left with a great deal to mull over, and I am sure that there will be at least one reread for me.
Karen Marie Moning’s finale to her Fever series is fitting and masterful.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED – provided you have read the prior books. I do not recommend that you jump into the series with this book.

Boar Island is Nevada Barr’s latest Anna Pigeon novel. Anna, a park ranger, is temporarily assigned to Acadia National Park as Acting Chief Ranger. And, we are once again reunited with Heath, Elizabeth, Gwen, and Wiley.
Elizabeth is being cyber-bullied, at her home in Boulder. So, while Anna goes to Acadia, the others go to nearby Boar Island, owned by a friend of Gwen. Naturally, during Anna’s tenure at Acadia, there is murder in Maine. We meet a ranger at Acadia, Denise Castle. And, the threat to Elizabeth has followed them east.
The writing in Boar Island is better than the last few of Barr’s Anna Pigeon books. Although I like Heath and the others with whom we are reunited, I feel like their reappearance is overdone. While reading the book, I sometimes felt like it was more about Heath and Denise than about Anna. Furthermore, I miss Paul – there was only a brief mention or two about him.
Each of Barr’s books is set in a different National Park, and the reader usually learns a great deal about that park. But Boar Island left me wishing that Barr had included more detail about the featured park, Acadia. And, I would have preferred that the book focus more on Anna, front and center.
But, Anna Pigeon is one of my all time favorite characters. I have been a long time fan of this series. Although I have found some of the more recent installments to be somewhat wanting, Boar Island is reminiscent of the Barr of old. I cannot wait for the next Anna Pigeon adventure.

We had a great time at Rebecca's. Lovely apartment in a lovely neighbourhood! All contacts with Rebecca were smooth and prompt. Thnx for a great stay ...
We had a great time at Rebecca's place. It is a cosy and comfy apartment in a cool neighborhood. The apartment is on the 2nd floor, very bright because of the many windows and has everything you need. The flat is clean and it has good bed.
We enjoyed strolling around Mission and Castro with its many restaurants, bars, parks, brunch/ lunch places. Going into town is a bit of a hike but once you figured out the public transport map you are ok.
Though you can manage, because of its size and its many smaller rooms I would not recommend this place for families who are bringing a baby or infant.
Super comfortable bed and sofa, lots of natural light, very accessible and friendly hosts, and amazing location. This part of town is near hot restaurants, cool hipster hangouts, the Castro, the Mission, public transport--something for everyone! Older building, so bathroom is not modern (small sink, little shelf space, wraparound shower curtain in the tub), but it's very adequate and clean. Note: Host provides no shampoo and only 1 towel, so bring your own if needed. There is street noise, but not excessive. It was a positive, first airbnb experience for me.
Highly recommended!! The apartment is very cozy, comfortable and clean. The location is perfect and surrounded by nice restaurants and shops. Rebecca is a very kind and helpful host and easy to communicate with, she is into every detail. Thank you so much, we had the greatest time in SFO!
Great apartment and wonderful host. Rebecca was clear and communicative and her apartment was clean, cute and comfortable. It was easy and pleasant all around. Highly recommended.
Awesome place in a great location! We were looking for a more authentic stay while we were in San Francisco and we got it. There were so many great restaurants, shop, bars and cafes within walking distance..we didn't even leave the Castro/Mission area. The apartment was clean and comfortable and Rebecca was a great host!
Staying at Rebecca's place was amazing. The location was excellent and we felt at home right away. Communication and organisation of all the small details was extremely easy and Rebecca was able to help us out with some local information whilst we were on our trip. We would recommend Rebecca's home to anyone looking for a great place to stay whilst in San Francisco.
Great light, comfy bed, cozy place! This apartment was a perfect place to stay in San Francisco. The Castro district is so lively and connects to all types of transportation and Rebecca is a wonderful host! She prepared such useful info for us on restaurants, bakeries, parks, and more, making our visit so smooth! The apartment has everything you need to have a fine stay in a fun city! Thanks, Rebecca!
Rebecca's apartment was wonderful and in a great location. Her guid to the neighbourhood had some great places to eat and drink too. Would definitely recommend staying here.
Great host, fantastic apartment.

SO have I been a good girl and done what I said I would before starting anything new? ... NOPE.
In my defence, I felted Kennys bed, which included stressing as the water went off while the washing machine was on (we're on a shared supply with our neighbours and they'd turned it off without telling us), no harm done to washer or cat bed. Cat bed felted really well and surprisingly evenly given that it was made of random wool from stash. Kenny will test it tonight ... he promised!
Curve of pursuit marathon of end weaving is complete. Just needs washed and blocked. I have piccys just camera won't talk to computer this morning.
So I managed two things from the to do list before casting on for the apron top from Spring IK. Will weave in ends on sari silk squares tonight before doing any more knitting!

In Broadway style: Aladdin, genie, magic lamp in Mumbai soon to grant you a wish
This is the second Broadway musical that Disney has brought to India, after Beauty and the Beast in 2015.Updated: Apr 16, 2018 13:51 IST
Elaborate sets, flying carpets, a genie and the romance of Aladdin and Jasmine — expect a whole new world at the National Centre for the Performing Arts as Disney’s Broadway musical, Aladdin, opens in the city on April 20.
It’s a reimagined version with an all-Indian cast but much of the same music, similarly lavish sets and the fairytale costumes that have made the Disney production so popular in the US, UK, Australia and Japan. “Aladdin’s story may not feel as exotic to us, so the challenge was to bring in an Indian context without tinkering too much with the production’s iconic value,” says director Shruti Sharma.
“It’s been a part of childhood. As grown-ups, you see more to the story than the magic, you see each character’s journey, see more in the genie’s quest for freedom.”
This is the second Broadway musical that Disney has brought to India, after Beauty and the Beast in 2015, on which Sharma was associate director.
Composer Dhruv Ganekar is acting as music director and has recreated some of the music as big band orchestra pieces, “So the audience will feel it is being played live,” as he puts it. “Songs like ‘One jump ahead’ and ‘Friend like me’ [from the original Disney animated film] will add a touch of nostalgia,” he adds.
So what are the changes? They’re subtle, Sharma hints. The wedding scene, for instance, has gone from a white wedding theme to one that incorporates pastels and golds. “We don’t want to steer away too much from the original,” says costume designer Gavin Miguel. Kira Narayanan will play Jasmine.
Aladdin will be played by Siddharth Menon, 28, and Taaruk Raina, 23. “Siddharth is a calm, poised, romantic Aladdin; Taaruk has a street-smart, happily wily vibe,” says actor Roshan Abbas, who plays Jafar. “For most of us, Genie is Robin Williams and my performance is a tribute to him,” says RJ Mantra, 33. The cast began rehearsals in January, which included vocal coaching by Bollywood playback singer Suzanne D’Mello. “It was important for them to be able to recreate the magic of a Broadway-style production,” she says.
Iago, Jafar’s sidekick, is now a parrot personified. “We have tried to twist it so you are left wondering, ‘Is he a parrot or a human?’ All in all, it’s a package, filled with music and magic,” Sharma says.
- What: Aladdin, Disney’s Broadway-style musical
- Where: National Centre for the Performing Arts, Nariman Point
- When: April 20 to May 6
- Tickets prices start at Rs 750 and are available online.
